After returning to the imperial capital from S City, Cheng Xingtao had the illusion that what had happened to her in S City in the past few days was like a dream. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When she returned to work at the head office again, everyone only took her a slightly longer vacation.

Everything is the same as before, everyone is still working hard in their respective positions, diligent, just like the earth revolves around the sun, and the moon is as natural as the seasons are cloudy and sunny.

Cheng Xingtao continued to devote herself to the game script of "The Legend of the Gods", and sometimes when she looked up, she found that Qiao Yue's office door was always closed, only at this time, did she know that many things had happened, other people, other things, were still running, but it didn't mean that those things hadn't happened.

Cheng Xingtao's injuries quickly improved, which was originally a fortunate thing, but Cheng Xingtao instead had an inexplicable sadness and deeper and deeper uneasiness.

The planted apple seeds still show no signs of germination, Cheng Xingtao pokes it every day, loosens the soil, and waters it regularly, even if there is no response, she is still very attentive.

Since knowing that Yi Xiaoxin was also in the imperial capital, Cheng Xingtao bought all kinds of delicacies and went to Yi Xiaoxin's company to find her whenever she was free. Yi Xiaoxin is always very busy, often without people, and often works overtime until late.

Cheng Xingtao rarely sees her, even if she finally does, Yi Xiaoxin doesn't have a good face for her, but Cheng Xingtao is still happy to go whenever she is free.

Winter soon came, and the imperial capital ushered in the first snow of the year in the cold winter of December.

Although Cheng Xingtao is a southerner, she has still seen snow, when she was in college, when she saw heavy snow for the first time, she was surprised, and now, she doesn't have much feeling about snow.

The snow may be beautiful, white and crystal clear, and the whole earth is covered with a light silver veil. But for Cheng Xingtao, who misses Qiao Yue, looking at the snow alone, there is no other feeling except cold.

But new things always make people feel excited, and other colleagues in the company are very excited when they get off work because of the snow today.

Cheng Xingtao slowly cleaned up her desk, took a look, there was no one in the office area, she planned to clean up the doors and windows one last time, and prepared to buy a roast duck for Yi Xiaoxin after work.

When Cheng Xingtao was about to close the door of the rest platform, she took one last look at the platform outside, and this glance was startled by a figure.

The platform is open-air, when Cheng Xingtao swept over, she didn't see anyone, but saw a wisp of cigarette slowly floating in the snow, this strange scene was indeed a little scary in the dim light, fortunately, when she looked closely, she saw Qi Linglong in a long white down jacket squatting in the snow, with her back to her, smoking without a puff.

She must have been motionless for a long time, so much so that a thick layer of snow fell on her head and body.

Since Cheng Xingtao came back from S City, she rarely talked to Qi Linglong, mainly because Qi Linglong was too busy and didn't have much time to talk to people, Cheng Xingtao and Qi Linglong had only said a few words in total, all of which were related to work.

When eating, sometimes she would see Qi Linglong and Yanzhi together, but most of the time, Qi Linglong didn't even appear in the cafeteria, but directly solved the problem of eating in the office.

The relationship between Qi Linglong and Yanzhi seems to be weak on the surface, and Cheng Xingtao really doesn't know what is going on with these two people now.

However, Qi Linglong usually doesn't worry about work, and when it comes to work problems, she only loses her temper and doesn't get depressed herself. Then, the way she is smoking quietly alone now should be because of emotional problems.

Cheng Xingtao walked over slowly and squatted down beside Qi Linglong.

Qi Linglong noticed that someone was approaching, she glanced at Cheng Xingtao, then looked at the office area, and found that it was empty, she spit out a puff of cigarette and said, "It's time to get off work, time flies so fast." ”

"Hmm. Cheng Xingtao replied lightly, she didn't look at Qi Linglong, she only squatted side by side with Qi Linglong, watching the snowflakes in front of her fall slowly and elegantly.

Cheng Xingtao remembered Makoto Shinkai's animation "Five Centimeters per Second", which said that the speed at which cherry blossoms fall is five centimeters per second.

I don't know, how fast the snowflakes fall.

Makoto Shinkai's animations are always full of rich emotions, and many people say they can't understand it, but Cheng Xingtao likes it very much, and she seems to be able to deeply understand the fear and timidity that Makoto Shinkai wants to express about her future life.

Maybe it's because she is that kind of person, because she wants to live the future well, but who is 100% sure that she can live the future as she wants, so she is afraid, but it leads to standing still and not daring to move forward.

Cheng Xingtao has watched "Five Centimeters per Second" many times, she used to pull Yi Xiaoxin to watch it with her, Yi Xiaoxin doesn't like to watch it, she can't watch the animation in the first place, not to mention that the rhythm of the animation of "Five Centimeters per Second" is too slow, she really can't sit still.

Therefore, Yi Xiaoxin has never finished watching "Five Centimeters per Second" once.

Yi Xiaoxin didn't accompany her to watch, so Cheng Xingtao watched it by herself.

Cheng Xingtao still remembers that the deepest impression was the kiss between Guishu and Mingli under the bare cherry blossom tree in the heavy snow.

At the moment of the kiss, Guishu's inner monologue said: At that moment, I seemed to understand the meaning of 'forever', 'heart' and 'soul', and the strong emotions made me want to share all the experiences I have experienced in the past thirteen years with her. And then in the next moment - but uncontrollably sad. The warmth of reason, that emotion, how I should deal with it, how to cherish it, about these, my heart is at a loss. But I am well aware that we may not be able to stay together forever in the future. In front of us is the heavy life and the long time, which makes people feel a sense of powerlessness.

Cheng Xingtao was always touched by this paragraph.

Because this passage laid the foundation for the tragedy of Guishu's inability to be with reason.

It was a kind of helplessness that could not be done to oneself, two people who liked each other, and clearly understood in their hearts that in the future, the two of them would not be able to be together. I can't let go of my heart, but I can't muster up the courage to resist, or, even if I resist, I know that time will leave a permanent scar between them.

Cheng Xingtao caught the snowflakes that were slowly falling, how she hoped that Qiao Yue could return to her side soon. She is not afraid to wait, but she is afraid of the traces left by time.

Guishu and Mingli have always had each other in their hearts, but in the years when they were powerless to resist, they were separated for a long time, and they understood that even if their feelings remained the same, many things had changed.

Qi Linglong brushed the snow off her body, and when she saw the thick snowflakes falling from her, she realized that she had been squatting for a long time.

She looked at Cheng Xingtao's deep eyes staring at the snow in the air in a daze, and asked in a voice that was a little hoarse because of smoking, "What are you thinking?"
