Chapter 213: One Last Request
Ah Cheng heard that Kawashima Midoriya still insisted on leaving, and his heart that had just warmed up couldn't help but cool again. She lowered her head a little disappointed and said, "Second Young Grandma, let's talk to the Second Young Master, Ah Cheng will go down first." With that, Ah Cheng left silently. Kawashima Luya stood in place, her steps did not enter the threshold, but quietly looked at Qiu Yingsheng, who was also looking at her. Qiu Yingsheng was also silent, just looking at Kawashima Luya, his eyes were unusually clear, and he couldn't see the slightest joy, anger and sorrow, but he was piercing and resolute. After a long time, Kawashima Midoriya turned her head sideways to avoid Chuan Qiu's shadow's gaze, and said self-deprecatingly: "I thought that you would say something to me first." ”
Midoria Kawashima made up her mind to leave, and she knew she had to go back and find a way to rescue the snow marks. She didn't know what kind of person Snow Mark was before, but with Snow Mark's mind now, it must be dangerous in Kurosawa's house, and she must go back to protect her. Besides...... She's still going back. After all, between "Kawashima Luya" and "Qiu Luxue", she chose "Kawashima Luya", and between Qiu Yingsheng and her sister, she chose her own sister...... But even if she had already made up her mind, she still hoped and imagined that she could hear Qiu Yingsheng say something, even if it was just one sentence, that she wanted her to stay...... If he doesn't want to say it, then as long as he looks at her, there can be a trace of reluctance or hesitation in his eyes...... Kawashima Luya didn't understand why she had already made up her mind but still thought of this, perhaps, this is her greed for the three words "Qiu Luxue......
Qiu Yingsheng turned away and continued to add the dishes on the table to his plate as if nothing had happened. He struggled to control his trembling hands and tears in his eyes as he picked up the dishes. At this moment, he suddenly realized what Qiu Ruoyu's mood was like when he forced Xue Zhen to wear a kimono and forced Xue Zhen to eat shrimp. He seems to have become more and more similar to Qiu Ruoyu, at least on the surface, they are all the same cold and indifferent. Finally, he put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, turned around, and said to Midoriya Kawashima, who was standing outside the door, "You can't take that hairpin on your head with you." That's my mother's relic, it's our Qiu family's thing, you can't take it away, I can't let the Qiu family's things stay in the hands of people like you. Leave it behind and go. Kawashima Luya seemed to have expected Qiu Yingsheng to say such a thing, so he replied lightly: "Your Qiu family has a big business, so you shouldn't be stingy with a hairpin." What's more, I am the second daughter-in-law of Qiu Jiaming, and this thing was given to me, and it is mine. "You are not the daughter-in-law of the Qiu family. Qiu Yingsheng resolutely interrupted Kawashima Luya's words, and then said: "Your marriage to me is just a play. Now that the play is over, the outfits used in acting are naturally going to be returned to their original positions. Kawashima Midoriya took a deep breath, looked at Qiu Yingsheng fixedly, and said, "I like this hairpin, I won't give it to you." When Qiu Yingsheng heard such an answer, the gaze in his eyes was calm and unwavering, and he said in a deep voice: "You can leave with it, but before that...... You killed me first...... I'm dead, you can wear it and leave......" Qiu Yingsheng's words fell, Kawashima Midoriya froze suddenly, she looked at Qiu Yingsheng's resolute gaze from beginning to end, her eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, and said with a wry smile: "Qiu Yingsheng, you are determined, I can't hear you 'die', right?" "Yes, I just ate that you can't listen to my 'death'." Qiu Yingsheng replied without hesitation. After that, it's a heart-wrenching cough.
Seeing this, Kawashima Luya didn't care about anything else, and quickly stepped over the threshold and stepped forward to support Qiu Yingsheng's shoulder, "Yingsheng, are you okay! You insist, I ......" Kawashima Luya's words were not finished, Qiu Yingsheng used all his strength to raise his hand and push her away, although he was as weak as a piece of paper, he still said resolutely: "Without you in the future, I will continue to live like this." You have been divorced by me, you don't have to play the role of saving me anymore, and we don't have to see each other again for the rest of our lives. I don't want to see you again even if I live another hour. ”
Midori Kawashima's tears were in her eyes but could not flow for a long time, she hesitated, took a few steps back, and said, "I came here just to tell you, 'I'll be back.'" Don't worry about snow marks, I'll do whatever you wish you wanted. "I ......" "Don't deceive yourself anymore......" Qiu Yingsheng coldly interrupted Kawashima Midoriya's words, "Between you and me, the Tao is different, and the goal is different. What I hope for is exactly what you trample on, how are you going to help me do those things......" Kawashima Midoriya sighed with a wry smile and said softly: "Qiu Yingsheng, whether you still want to believe me or not...... All you want, all things...... I'll do it for you......" said Kawashima Midoriya slowly took off the hairpin on her head, and the moment her hair fell down, she put the hairpin on the table, "I know I don't deserve it, so I deliberately wore it, and I wanted it to belong to me for a while." Give it back to you...... Qiu Yingsheng...... I'm sorry for letting someone like me mess up your peaceful life...... Can you grant me one last request for the sake of me as 'Qiu Luxue'......"
Qiu Ying was silent, he lowered his head sideways and looked at the hairpin on the table, and after being silent for a moment, he said lightly: "Say it." Anything you want, you can take it away from it. Midoriya Kawashima smiled and shook her head, and said, "Can you ...... Can you say a word, leave my words ......"
Qiu Yingsheng's weak body had made it impossible for him to sit upright, and he was dressed in rough clothes, like a dry wax that would burn out at any moment. However, even if he used all his strength, he couldn't let him control his body as freely as before, he still persevered, screamed, and stood up little by little, facing Kawashima Midoriya, with a staggering step, approaching her step by step. The moment he walked to Kawashima Midoria's side, Qiu Yingsheng instantly felt a sudden rush of heat, and he understood that it was the temperature of Kawashima Midoria's tears that had been hovering in his eyes for a long time. He wanted to shed the same tears as her, but he couldn't, the hotter Midori Kawashima's tears were, the colder his heart had to be...... He looked at Kawashima Midoria, looked at her with all his strength, used all his strength to hide all the emotions in his eyes, looked at her coldly, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't go ......" The moment the words fell, Qiu Yingsheng could clearly feel that the heat around him gradually dissipated, because the tears that had been lingering in Kawashima Midoriya finally fell from her eyes...... Hot tears fell, and Kawashima Luya's heart gradually cooled down, and the last reason to stay in the Qiu family, the last excuse, was gone...... She wanted to go up and hug Qiu Yingsheng, but she didn't do that. In what capacity do you want to do that, and why do you do that......
In the end, Kawashima Midoriya just smiled and nodded, and said "Thank you...... in a shallow voice, her voice was so weak that almost no one could hear it, but Kawashima Midoriya firmly believed that Qiu Yingsheng would be able to hear it, she slowly took a few steps back, turned around, and slowly walked towards the threshold......
I remember that it was one night when she first arrived at Qiu's house, she was busy groping for the "secret" of the Qiu family and almost fell into the river, but Qiu Yingsheng hugged her and said to her: "Hold on to me, you will fall into the river." He helped her wipe the dust off her body and said to her, "I'm scared, it's all right." ”
"The river is shallow enough to drown a person. However, once it falls, it will be cold to the bones. It's so cold, you're going to be scared. Once upon a time, Qiu Yingsheng's words had been lingering in her ears, and that was the first time that someone cared about whether she would feel scared. At that time, Qiu Yingsheng was still "Qiu Ruoyu".
I remember one day, she took advantage of the mess of maids and men to step in and out of the house where she was told that "there was something terrible". It was there that she found her portrait. The moment I picked up the portrait, the phrase "Put down my painting" came from behind me. ”……
She will never forget that face, the moment she turned to face that person, she was almost completely evacuated, that person, standing in front of her, his eyes were red as if he was oozing blood, his face was as pale as paper, and his lips were colorless, haggard and distressing. His body was unsteady and he was slightly half-bowed, his trembling hands on his chest and the other on the carved door frame in the middle. He struggled to straighten up and took a few steps forward, looking at his eyes, which were already welling up with tears, and said in a hoarse voice, "I scared you." Didn't I tell you a long time ago that there was something terrible in this room...... It's me, a non-human and non-ghost, that scares you. ”
"It's me, not a human or a ghost, scaring you. Thinking about this sentence now, Kawashima Midoriya still feels like a sting. It was the first time she wanted to make him no longer suffer like that, and she wanted to forget her identity to protect him......
"I remember the first time I saw you, I looked into your eyes, and although your eyes were soaked in coldness, I seemed to see a hidden, faint sadness under that coldness...... It's like a snowflake floating in the air, wanting to exchange its fall for the arrival of spring. However, the moment the snowflakes fall, they are destined to never see the spring they have been waiting for. Still, the snowflakes will fall without hesitation...... I thought about it, your name is Qiu Luxue. From now on, you will be my green child. The moment he stepped out of the threshold, Midori Kawashima smiled. She is already happy enough, she has a name that no one can replace, it is a gift from Qiu Yingsheng to her, a gift that can be cherished for a lifetime......
"I, Kawashima Midoriya, swear that even if Qiu Yingsheng dies in front of me, I won't be heartbroken...... That's my promise to you...... I won't feel sorry for you. Your life or your death will not change in any way. At the moment when he could no longer hear the sound of footsteps in his ears, Qiu Yingsheng's memories also stopped, he slowly closed his eyes, smiled, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said to himself: "Lu'er, you must keep your promise to me." ”
