When I asked this question, Jiang Qian was obviously stunned for a moment, as if she was a little abrupt.
I quickly smiled and said to her: "Don't take it seriously, I just said it casually."
Jiang Qian replied shyly: "Brother Chen Feng, don't tell me. After getting along with him during this time, I think he is a very good person, but he doesn't like to talk much, but he is quite nice."
I was startled, it looked like there was something going on, and then I smiled and said, "He was born in technology like me, so it's normal for him not to like to talk, but Ye Maochun doesn't have any evil intentions and is quite righteous."
"Yes, he is quite good."
"What do you think?"
Jiang Qian became even more shy and said, "I don't know, let's observe first."
I chuckled and said, "That's okay, let's get in touch with him more first."
Jiang Qian hurriedly said to me: "Brother Chen Feng, don't tell him about this! Otherwise it will be very embarrassing to meet him when he comes back."
I smiled coquettishly and said, "I know, this is a matter between the two of you. You should get to know each other slowly. Anyway, I think you are quite good. I just want to see if you like him or not."
Jiang Qian also smiled and said: "If you and I really didn't like him before, I used to want to find a handsome and considerate Prince Charming. Maybe I watched too many idol dramas!"
"Then why have you changed your mind now?"
"Don't you think I'm different now than when I first came to Chongqing?"
"Yes, you seem to have changed."
"So my criteria for choosing a mate will naturally change," she said after a short pause, "Besides, Ye Maochun isn't bad either, right? I think he's quite handsome too!"
"Then how does he compare to me?" I joked with a smile.
Jiang Qian said with an embarrassed look: "Brother Chen Feng, you are here with me now, of course you are handsome."
I laughed again and said, "Come on, if Ye Maochun were here, would you say he is handsome?"
"Do I have high emotional intelligence?"
I gave her a thumbs up and praised: "Yes, you have your father's genes."
Jiang Qian snorted: "I will surpass him. I don't want others to only know that I am Jiang Shimin's daughter."
"Then you have to work hard. Your father's achievements did not happen overnight. They cannot be surpassed in decades."
"I'm still young, and this is my capital."
At that moment, I saw in Jiang Qian an unyielding belief, which made me feel that she would really achieve great things in the future.
With this belief in her, even if she is not Jiang Shimin's daughter, I feel that she will make a name for herself in the world.
Some people are born with a natural personality. Even if they are born humble, they will make their way into the world through acquired efforts.
We continued chatting for a while, and she was busy, so I made an excuse to go out.
Because I know that if I don't leave, she won't go about her own business.
After leaving Jiangshan Technology, I planned to visit the yard where An Lan left me. It wasn't to see things and miss people, I just wanted to take a walk there.
There was still a court seal affixed to the gate of the manor, so I lay on the outside wall and looked inside.
The yard was deserted and desolate. No one had lived in it for more than half a month, and weeds had grown inside.
I looked at the places inside where An Lan and I had sat, stood, and walked, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
The scene of An Lan and I walking inside hand in hand suddenly came to mind. We were chatting, chatting about future plans, and chatting about trivial matters in life.
Until my mother's voice called us to eat came from inside, An Lan and I responded together, and then walked towards the back room.
I really wanted to call them out, but no sound came out of my throat, and I just watched them slowly disappear from my eyes.
I know I'm hallucinating, but I just want to fall into this hallucination.
I didn't leave, I changed my position and continued to look inside.
The strange thing is that I saw them again. A family of three was sitting at the dining table, and An Lan was picking up food for my mother. I looked at the two most important women in my life and smiled happily.
I looked at the picture of their family of three enjoying themselves and couldn't help but laugh, but the feeling was so uncomfortable.
It’s as if the current life has nothing to do with me, but they are obviously my relatives!
I was so melancholy that I lit up a cigarette, took a long puff, and continued to look at the pictures inside and myself.
It feels like being in the gap between two time and space, which is a very strange feeling.
I was smoking quietly, not wanting to get out of this feeling. I wanted to continue to savor this feeling.
I enjoyed it so much that I didn’t even want to leave. If I could, I could watch it here for the rest of my life.
I imagined everything that was happening inside as real, and I was God's perspective.
Since then, An Lan has not left me.
We just get along with each other in a different way, which is similar to spiritual communication, transcending the limitations of time and space, going deeper and closer to the soul.
I can't remember how long I stood here until Tian Lang called me.
He told me that he had already got off work, asked me where I was, and agreed to visit him at his house tonight.
I asked him to tell me the address directly, and I could just take a car there.
Tian Lang told me the address, hung up the phone, and when I looked up into the yard again, there was no picture inside, and the yard was still empty.
I know it's an illusion, it's a feeling I really want.
But I clearly know that I will never feel this way again, because An Lan has completely left me.
After gathering my emotions, I took out my mobile phone and called an online taxi.
On the way to Tian Lang's house, I went to a supermarket to buy some gifts or something. After all, it was my first time to be a guest at their house, so naturally I couldn't go empty-handed.
Tian Lang doesn't smoke and rarely drinks alcohol, but I remember that his girlfriend, who is several years older than him, has a child, and I plan to buy some snacks, fruits and the like.
In the supermarket, I bought almost all kinds of fruits, as well as some dried fruits and snacks.
But I never expected that I would meet Xiao Wei in the supermarket.
I was pushing my shopping cart to check out, and when I passed by the vegetable section, I saw her picking vegetables.
She didn't notice me, but I recognized her at a glance. After all, we had lived together for so long.
I didn't call her immediately. In fact, I didn't know whether I should call her or not.
I said we would never meet again, but now we meet again accidentally.
She seemed to be alone, and I checked to see if there were any of her family members around.
I kept staring at her for a long time, and then I walked over to her, with no other intention, just to say hello.
"Xiao Wei, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you here again."
