At 11 o'clock at night, the airport was already empty. The huge glass wall is transformed into a huge mirror by the reflection of light, reflecting Liao Luo and the tired traveler, with a dark and silent, starless and moonless night sky in the background.

Qi Yun's plane was a little late, and he was sitting in a hard-backed chair near the boarding gate at the moment, bored, kicking his legs from time to time. Hong Jian stood straight next to her large suitcase, his hands in his trouser pockets. He wears dark sunglasses that cover half of his face, and he can't see the expression on his face clearly.

"Brother Jian, thank you for coming to see me off."

Qi Yun raised his face, although he was a little tired, his face was still as bright as the bright moon, and Hong Jian only felt a breath away.

"Thank you even more for helping me connect with schools in the United States."

"What is this?" Hong Jian smiled nonchalantly, "Didn't you ever wait for me in the past?" Now, it's my turn to wait for you to return to China. ”

Qi Yun smiled and didn't make a sound. Hong Jian went on to say:

"When you come back, Uncle Qi happens to be ...... Well, everything will be fine. ”

Qi Yun nodded. The father's case was finally concluded with only 3 years in prison, in addition to Qi Yun's positive performance in returning the stolen money, he naturally received more attention from Uncle Hong within the scope of adhering to the principle, which Qi Yun knew in his heart.

A lot of thanks, I don't need to say them one by one. However, the one thing Qi Yun is most grateful to Hong Jian has nothing to do with his father's case.

After the whole thing was revealed, Lu Weijun was imprisoned and sentenced to a very long term, which naturally deserved it. However, just when everyone regarded Hong Jian and Qi Yun as a pair of talented and beautiful couples, looking forward to them sending everyone bright red wedding cards as soon as possible, even Qi Yun himself admitted to silence, waiting for Hong Jian to play tricks such as hiding wedding rings in ice cream one day, Hong Jian found Qi Yun one day and talked to her about a past.

Qi Yun still remembers that day, it was a drizzling rain, making people feel as humid and hot as the climate of midsummer, Hong Jian asked her out, and the two sat in an open-air barbecue stall, informally skewering and drinking cold beer, Hong Jian seemed to say to her casually:

"Xiaoyun, there is a secret, I thought it would be rotten in my heart forever, and I would never mention it for the rest of my life...... But after thinking about it for a long time, I felt that it was necessary for you to know. ”

Qi Yun was stunned for a moment, and slowly raised his head to look at Hong Jian.

"This matter ......" It is rare to see such hesitation and hesitation of Hong Jian, as if he was carefully looking for words, "Remember? Why did you come back early when you were teaching in Wuyang Village...... It was because he was attacked by gangsters. ”

Qi Yun put down the beer in his hand. The past was set off one by one and came to mind.

"That thug is actually related to Brother Deng...... Of course, in the final analysis, it was because Lu Wei offended him at that time. Because you were Lu Wei's girlfriend at the time, and you happened to be in Brother Deng's hometown, a county where his influence was quite deep...... Therefore, Brother Deng made a move on you, the purpose of which was to warn Lu Wei. ”

"But it's no secret." Qi Yun whispered. She already knew about it. She secretly wondered in her heart, could it be that Hong Jian meant that Lu Wei succumbed to Brother Deng in order to protect her, so much so that he married Miss He? Just like what my father did?

- If so, will she be able to forgive him for the decision he made later? Qi Yun thought secretly in his heart. Unfortunately, in the end, she still felt that she could understand him, but she could not forgive him for everything he had done.

"Fortunately, at that time, Lu Wei arrived in time."

Hong Jian's sentence is unbelievable, but it has no beginning or end. Qi Yun frowned and looked at Hong Jian in confusion. If she remembers correctly, when she was attacked, the gangster who obviously tried to insult her almost succeeded, but fortunately, Hong Jian, who happened to go to the countryside, arrived, beat the gangster away, and carried her to the county hospital for timely medical treatment.

"You say, Lu Wei also came at that time?" Qi Yun asked little by little, but there was obvious disbelief in his tone: "You mean, after you carried me to the county seat, within the day I was unconscious, he also arrived...... But if he had really been here, he couldn't have left without saying a word, right? ”

"Not on the day you fell unconscious," Hong Jian picked up a handful of cold beer and drank it all: "Actually, it wasn't me who rescued you from the gangsters, and I didn't carry you to the county seat." ”

At this time, Qi Yun smiled dumbly, "What, is today April Fool's Day?" I said how old are you, and you still play this kind of game, are you naïve or not? Don't tell me that it was the gangsters who suddenly found out on their conscience and sent me to the county hospital. Why don't you tell me what the hell is going on? ”

Hong Jian didn't have a joking look at all, "That person is not me, it's Lu Wei." ”

"What?" Qi Yun was shocked, his brain was blank for a long time, and it took a long time before he asked:

"You say, the person who saved me is Lu Wei?"

Hong Jian hesitated for a moment and nodded emphatically.

"But how is that possible...... What did he do in Wuyang Village? ”

Hong Jian's right hand made a circle on the ring finger of his left hand,

"Go...... Proposing to you. ”

"Propose?"

Qi Yun muttered dreamily.

"That's right, he also brought a very expensive wedding ring." Hong Jian tried his best to make his position look fair and objective, but he still couldn't hide the jealousy that came out of his heart: "I also learned later that Deng Chang was sent a chase order to him because Lu Wei refused to reveal the whereabouts of more than 20,000 yuan-hehe, probably for a person like Deng Chang, he didn't believe that anyone was willing to risk being hunted down in order to buy a ring for the girl he liked, right?" ”

Qi Yun's expression was gloomy, and the scenes in his mind flashed like lightning, in fact...... She seemed to have hallucinated that she had seen him, but who knew it wasn't a hallucination?

In other words, everything that follows, he has to do it as a last resort...... In fact, in the first place, the reason for the first reason was nothing more than to fulfill the promise to marry me? ”

Qi Yun muttered. It is said that fate makes people, but Qi Yun never thought that fate would play this big and vicious joke on her.

Hong Jian was noncommittal, and only said lightly:

"I waited until you arrived in the county seat and were admitted to the hospital before I checked your whereabouts. On the day you fell unconscious, I met Lu Wei in the hospital and had a conversation. ”

"You...... What to talk to him about? ”

Qi Yun's voice became a little weird for some reason. Hong Jian sighed heavily.

"I'll chase him away."

Seeing Qi Yun staring at himself in a daze, Hong Jian, who had always thought that he had no regrets in acting, became self-doubting and nervous for the first time in his life.

"Xiaoyun, I'...... It wasn't because of my selfishness that I drove him away. I'll admit it, I was very ...... at that time I like you, but if you choose another man, as long as he is good to you, you can live well in the future, I will bless you. ”

"But......" Qi Yun shook his head bitterly, "you, and you...... How can you be sure that I can't live a good life when I am with Lu Wei at that time? You are all so conceited, you insist on the poor and lowly husband and wife, and you are all under the banner of being good for me, but you are ...... Ruined everything I had alive! ”

After speaking, her chest rose and fell, and her eyes were hot, but no tears flowed.

"Xiaoyun," Hong Jian lowered his head, put his hands together in front of his forehead, revealing a weakness that he had never felt before. "These are the words you asked me today...... That day, Lu Wei also asked me the same question. I admit that I am vain and shallow, no different from the worldly old slippery heads I usually look down upon...... That day, I laughed at him, hit him, and asked him what he could give you. If there is love, it is better to laugh on a bicycle than to cry on a BMW, but what if there is no love one day? Do you still laugh on your bike? Maybe when that day comes, even the bicycle that carried her will be gone? It's better to sit in the BMW and cry, at least wipe away your tears, the BMW that accompanies you is real...... I knew that I had convinced him, and he was gone, full of resentment and resentment towards the world. I used to think that I was doing the right thing, and even the next time I saw Lu Wei, he said to me coldly in the morning: Thank you for the golden and jade words I once gave him...... But at that time, only I felt strongly that I had destroyed something with my own hands - if you are not happy in this life, then I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. ”

Qi Yun shook his head slightly, and tears flowed down in strings,

"No one has ever told me about these things, not even Lu Wei ......"

"Of course, I can keep my mouth shut, anyway, to this day, you will never be able to run to Lu Wei to verify anything...... And I know that if I hadn't confessed it to you, you would have thought that I had stopped your relationship from the standpoint of being responsible for you, even if I thought I was jealous, but jealousy was actually understandable. ”

Hong Jian had a miserable but firm expression on his face, "However, what I want is - a clear conscience." Let's put it this way, I'm also selfish, I don't want you to marry me, and one day regret when you know the truth, and then if we doubt each other, it will definitely be a poisonous weed planted in each other's hearts for the rest of our lives...... So, it's better to be now. Xiaoyun, if you think you still need to calm down again, or simply need to go on a study tour for a few years first...... Anyway, I'm familiar with the schools in the United States, so I can help you get in touch. ”

"What about you?"

"I'll wait for you."

So there is today's airport send-off. Hong Jian, who has never easily expressed his emotions, performed flawlessly today. But even Qi Yun's heart was covered with sad parting sorrows, he was also a human being, how could he not feel the great loss and sadness of separation?

Qi Yun raised his face and carefully observed the expression on Hong Jian's face, but he turned his head to the other side and stared at the place where the passengers entered the customs in a distracted manner.

Strangely, what was there in that place that caught his attention? let him stare at it for a long time and didn't turn his face back, and even the self beside him was automatically ignored. Although Qi Yun is not very narcissistic about his appearance, Hong Jian is not the kind of person who can't take his eyes off when he sees a beautiful woman.

She looked in the direction of Hong Jian's gaze, and what caught her eye was a slender silhouette, dragging an oversized suitcase. Just as Qi Yun rubbed his eyes and tried to see what the beauty looked like, the beauty raised her hand lightly and waved at her.

Qi Yun was confused, and subconsciously waved his hand at her, and when he put down his hand, he saw clearly that beautiful woman with one sunglasses covering most of her face, who was not Kuang Sisi?

At the same time as the public trial of Qi Jianguo's case, the procuratorate also filed a public prosecution at the same time as Xiao Yang, the current director of the Provincial Department of Construction, and the two cases of suspected duty crimes were finally dealt with together, but obviously, Xiao Yang's problem is greater, and the people involved are more extensive, whether it is a celebrity in the entertainment industry like Kuang Sisi, or a former business giant like Lu Wei, and an underworld brother like Deng Chang, with Xiao Yang's fall, they have been dug up, and all the dark and ugly that is difficult to show finally came to light at this moment.

I don't know if it's luck or misfortune, Kwong Sisi was "broken up" because Xiao Yang got a new love a few months before Xiao Yang fell from power, Xiao Yang arranged for her to study in Germany, which is an official like him, a way out for his "tired" old love. It is precisely because of this that after Xiao Yang was investigated for being involved in the case, although Kuang Sisi was isolated and examined several times, he could still be regarded as a complete escape.

“…… Sister Sisi. ”

Qi Yun hesitated slightly, but still got up to greet her, and gave Kuang Sisi, who approached her, a gentle hug. If she guessed correctly, Kwong Sisi should still go to Germany alone this time, and she should not come back.

Perhaps this is the last time they will see each other in this life. Since then, the mountains and rivers have grown wide, whether it is love or hate, and whether the feelings are still strong or not, they are afraid that they will not have a chance to see each other again.

"Xiaoyun, I'm going to Germany."

Kuang Sisi whispered in Qi Yun's ear, she used to be a pillar of the provincial TV station, even if her face was ruined, her voice was still as clear as a yellow warbler in spring. Qi Yun has to admit that she is a very talented artist.

"In the future, if I meet your ...... again Brother, if I am able, I will take care of him. ”

"Okay." Qi Yun smiled and took a piece of white and flawless jade from his neck.

"This ...... Now it's the only thing my dad left me. For you, if you get over there, what are the difficulties in your life at the beginning...... Just use this arrangement to make a move, and you can exchange a few dollars for a few dollars. ”

Seeing Kuang Sisi's look of rejection, Qi Yun pulled her hand over, put the white jade into her palm, and held her fingers one by one.

"And if you're really on your own footing there...... I'll just give you this to my brother...... They mother and son. In the future, my father will not be able to take care of them, and my ability is also very limited, with this, in case my younger brother needs money to see a doctor, or if there are any difficulties that their mother and son can't get over there, there is one more way. ”

Kuang Sisi listened to this, was silent for a while, and did not say anything to refuse, but just lowered his head and put away the white jade with dignity. The two women who were once intertwined with grievances finally looked at each other and smiled at each other in the urging of the radio of the flight to Germany, and then gently let go of their hands, and never met again.

Qi Yun returned to his seat and sat down, Hong Jian took off his sunglasses and quipped:

"I've always treated you as a little girl...... Hey, I didn't expect it, you're really atmospheric. ”

Qi Yun thought about it, and finally smiled helplessly,

"Because the more I get older, the more I find that there are fewer and fewer people to blame...... Everyone has their problems. ”

Yes, even if you can't really accept their behavior, you can at least learn to think from their perspective and make your mind more peaceful, so why not?

It's like - maybe Hong Jian's heart can't really accept his study tour for a few years, but he is willing to think from her point of view, accept her decision, and give her one more chance to choose, so that she will never regret her rashness.

Qi Yun secretly glanced at Hong Jian's dark-skinned silhouette, their ears looked very similar from the side, and when they were children, the two mothers once joked that they would definitely be a family in the future.

But is that really the case? At this moment, Qi Yun asked himself gently.

"I'm sorry, Brother Aji...... I don't think I can give you a definitive answer just yet. ”

Qi Yun exhaled softly. It seemed to be saying to Hong Jian, and it was like muttering to himself.

The corners of Hong Jian's mouth opened slightly, revealing a bright and drunken smile:

"Do you know the difference between liking and loving? People who like a flower will pick flowers; And the one who falls in love with this flower, he will go to water. ”

Qi Yun smiled, as if he understood.

In the distance, a faint rumbling sound was heard, and the night flight finally landed.
