After sitting for a while, more and more cars were coming and going on Tulip Road, and the whole world began to recover, and the child Edamame fell asleep on my lap after jumping for a while.

I patted him on the shoulder, woke him up alive, and then asked him, "Edamame, who told you that men and women have to sleep together before they have children?" "You, it's you who sued me."

Originally, I planned to let him carry the black pot for me, but now he relied on me for this matter, how could I not get angry, so I talked to him a little louder: "You fart, I don't know that men and women can sleep together to have children, how can I teach you?" ”

Although I was very angry, Edamame was not afraid of me at all, and he replied at the top of his voice, "It's you and you...... You drank too much wine that time, and sat at the door to tell me...... I don't believe it, I said that I jumped out of the cracks in the stones, and you said that my dad and my mom slept together, so I had my ...... If I still don't believe it, you get drunk and want to beat me, I was so scared, and then I believed it...... You've forgotten it......" Edamame said and grabbed my ears and yelled with the strength of milk, "Futahashi, you forgot ......"

I was confused by edamame, but I couldn't help but believe what he said, because many times, I am indeed a person who is not very serious, especially when I am drunk, and I dare to say anything.

I pushed Edamame aside, then picked up my phone again and looked at it, but Xiao Ai didn't reply, and it was almost twenty minutes later, which was a great torture for me......

Actually, I didn't expect her to say yes...... I'm just afraid that if I don't say it, I'll feel deep regret after she leaves.

I thought about the old house that was about to be demolished, and when I was going to live on this road, without her by my side, how could I defeat those familiar loneliness, and when I picked up my glass, how would I think of her in a foreign country?

At this moment, I suddenly lost the mood to eat breakfast, I never found out that I was so afraid of losing, so I listened to Qiao Ye and boldly sent her such a message.

……

After a fuss with me for a while, Edamame was sent to school by his father, so all I could see in the sun was my own mood.

Got up and walked back and forth on Tulip Road, and the first rush hour for work has arrived, most of them are busy workers in the city, and the next group will be the turn of those white-collar workers in the workplace.

But at this time, I still met Jin Qiu, who inevitably passed by Tulip Road every day to go to work at the company, and she should be one of the few bosses in the city who would work in such a way.

She also spotted me, then parked the car on the side of the road, and after learning that I hadn't eaten either, she simply took me to the food stall at the mouth of the alley and asked for two potstickers and two cups of soy milk.

In the process of eating breakfast, I was a little absent-minded, and Jin Qiu didn't say much, and kept looking at what might have been a backlog yesterday.

I suddenly remembered that she was studying law, so I asked her, "I have a friend whose mother helped her teach at Berklee College of Music for three years...... If this friend doesn't want to go, can the tuition money be refunded? ”

Jin Qiu put down her chopsticks, she looked at me with a very strange gaze, and then replied very dissatisfiedly: "You just tell me that Xiao Ai is not over!" Is it necessary to make such a bend? “

"I didn't want to go around the bend, if you knew, just tell me."

After Jin Qiu was silent for a while, he replied to me: "This depends on the policy of each school, as far as I know, you can generally get back part of the fee, but it depends on the terms of the contract signed by both parties...... However, I have to give you a vaccination, Americans are very concerned about doing things according to the rules, if there is really such a contract that does not refund the tuition fee in case of an unexpected situation, you should not try to talk to them about any favors, and the result can only be implemented in accordance with the terms of the contract, because it is very likely that your registration has affected their enrollment quota, can you understand what I say? “

I nodded, knowing in my heart that if Xiao Ai's mother really didn't want to give us room to reverse in this matter, then she would definitely sign a contract with no room for redemption.

I suddenly felt more pressure in my heart, and I couldn't help but feel troubled again.

Jin Qiu also seemed to be affected by this incident, she didn't do her own thing anymore, but asked me, "Xiao Ai, her mother doesn't approve of you being together?" …… Let Xiao Ai go abroad at this time, what should your piano store do? Many students are aiming for Xiao Ai's brilliant award-winning experience! “

I sighed, and then I didn't eat the potstickers and soy milk, but I took a cigarette out of the cigarette case, avoided the good morning sun, and squinted and smoked, but my worries couldn't be spit out with the smoke......

Seeing that I didn't speak, Jin Qiu didn't give me too many opinions, she ate her breakfast, then put away the text, and finally said to me: "Jiang Qiao, although I know that you are in a difficult situation now, I have to remind you that the loan of 2 million has been done for you, this is a commercial loan, you can't have the slightest slack." “

I looked at her and was stunned for a moment before replying, "I know." "Then I'll go to work first."

Just when Jin Qiu turned around and was about to leave, I suddenly wanted to hear her opinion on this matter, she would definitely not give the same idea as Qiao Ye, but maybe what I needed the most at this stage. So, I stopped her: "Wait. ”

"What's wrong?"

I pondered for a moment before replying, "What do you think I should do about this?" …… I'm confused and clueless right now, so I'd like to hear from a third party. "Jiang Qiao, don't listen to other people's opinions on emotional matters, because love is not love, how much love there is only the person himself knows best...... If you really love to a certain extent, even if you do something that is not so rational, I think it is another wonderful thing in life...... Anyway, there are 10,000 ways for all kinds of people in this world to live, as long as they don't violate the law and the bottom line, they can completely follow their hearts to choose and live. “

I wondered in my heart...... Compared with Qiao Ye's simple and rudeness, her words seemed to be talking about the same truth...... "Okay Jiangqiao, I have an appointment with a few engineers and designers here to talk about transforming the textile factory into a hotel, so I really have to go to the company." “

I never regarded Jin Qiu as an outsider in my heart, and she had just said that to me, so when she wanted to leave for the second time, I called her again and said, "There is no other way than to marry her and have children...... Her mother didn't leave us any room for this matter at all, she just didn't want us to be together! ”

"What? …… You're going to marry her and have kids! ”

I took a hard puff of my cigarette and looked at her...... I don't know why she reacted so violently. She walked up to me again and said, "Jiangqiao, you must not do this, you will only cause you more trouble by doing this, do you understand?" “

I looked at her in amazement, only to feel that I had just misunderstood what she meant, so that I replied after a while: "I don't understand, why can't I do this?" "Because you can't take that responsibility...... Listen to me, don't do it. ”

Originally, I didn't have the confidence to do such a thing as Fengzi's marriage, but as soon as Jin Qiu said this, I felt even more inappropriate in my heart, it was not about whether I had an opinion, but because this matter was too serious, not to mention the message I mustered up the courage to send to Xiao Ai, and I haven't received a reply from her until now. I realized that Xiao Ai was not necessarily in favor of such an approach.

……

After Jin Qiu left, I went to the piano shop, and then met Yu Xin, this was the last class she taught in the piano shop after she went to participate in the talent show, and I counted 8,400 yuan from my purse, which was her salary during this time.

After waiting patiently for about 20 minutes, Yu Xin walked out of the classroom, and before closing the door, she looked inside again, I knew that she had a longing for these children who had been with her for more than a month, but this kind of attachment had to be given up in the face of her career.

She came to me with a somewhat apologetic face, and then whispered to me: "Brother Jiangqiao, I'm going to participate in the draft, Xiao Ai has already told you, right?" ”

"Hmm...... Go, don't have any psychological burden, participate in the competition well, call me if you need a group of relatives and friends on the spot, Xiao Ai and I will definitely go to cheer you on. I said as I handed her the money I had just counted.

She shook her head and said to me: "This time should be regarded as a friendship help, now the piano store has to spend money everywhere, especially in recruitment, it is difficult to recruit high-level teachers without a high salary." ”

I shoehorned the money into her, then changed the subject and said, "I want to go to your Nanyi to do a special job fair, you should have acquaintances in it, see if you can help provide a venue." “

Yu Xin thought for a while and replied: "I know Director Pang who manages logistics, I'll give him a call now, when will you go to recruit?" ”

"Time can't be delayed, just this afternoon."

……

After separating from Yu Xin, I went to a nearby advertising company and ordered an X-shaped recruitment advertising display, waiting for the process of getting the goods, I received a call from Xiao Ai, and I was inexplicably nervous, after all, I sent her such a message in the morning. I don't know what she was thinking, but if she had already thought about studying abroad, this wishful thinking would be a burden to her and would make me look ridiculous.

I didn't speak immediately after answering the phone, and neither did she, and the atmosphere was silent to the point of embarrassment. Finally, she asked me, "You messaged me in the morning." "Hmm" I answered, and just when I thought she was going to say something about the information, she changed her tone after a moment of silence and said, "Jiang Qiao, I will go back to Taipei with my mother this afternoon......"

Before she finished speaking, my heart suddenly ached, I don't know if it was the message I sent that prompted her to make this decision, but at the moment I really felt like I had lost my soul. "Why did you leave so suddenly, did you think about my feelings when you made this decision?"

At this moment, I am angry, even if Xiao Ai thinks that my message is excessive, but I can't go back to Taipei in this unguarded afternoon, not to mention that the piano store will fall into a huge crisis because of Yu Xin and her departure one after another, as far as my personal emotions are concerned, I can't accept it, I am afraid that this seemingly casual morning is the last time I will see her in my life!
