After making trouble for a while, Yang Qu sat back on the bed, but his mouth was still scolding me in fragments, I put away the emotions of that moment just now, and returned to normal and said to her: "As long as you spend money in moderation, this eighteen thousand yuan is enough for you to use for half a year, so give you half an hour to think about how you want to live in the future, and then you can find your own way out." ”

Yang Qu was still sobbing, and she asked me, "What are you going to do when I'm gone...... Are you going to starve to death in this tiny apartment? ”

"What...... What did you say? ”

Her voice became louder, but she still cried: "I said, what are you going to do when I'm gone...... Don't you only have a few hundred dollars left in your pocket? Leave me behind, and I still have the money to sell the bag...... I'm not as bad as you are maggots, and if you starve to death, I'll cry half to death next to you. ”

"Don't mess around with me here, from the first time I saw you, I categorized you into the group of people I couldn't trust."

"You don't talk nonsense, it's not because you stole my bag to sell that I'm so sad...... You have no idea how important that bag is to me, it's a birthday present from my best friend, and now that she's studying abroad, it's the only thing on my mind. ”

I was unmoved, and replied, "Your friend is not so picky, so he gave you such a pack." ”

She argued, "But my favorite is that bag." ”

"Okay, then you take out all the things you don't like very much, I'll go find you land and sell them all, and you can enjoy a well-off life right away."

Yang Qu glared at me: "You bastard, if you dare to steal my things and sell them again, I'm not easy to mess with......"

I interrupted her and asked, "What, you're going to steal my stuff and sell it too?" ”

Yang Qu looked around, and her eyes finally fixed on the guitar that Xiao Ai left me, and she said hatefully: "Yes, if you dare to steal my things and sell them again, your guitar will not be able to keep it." ”

I also looked at the guitar, and some memories came to mind, this guitar was given to me the night before Xiao Ai went to Japan to help Yuan Zhen last year. She also told me that this guitar was given to her by her mother on the day she went to Taipei, so it is the most cherished thing for her.

It seems that since then, she has gradually become the person I want to cherish the most. So much so that a lot of things have happened for a long time, and I still don't want to believe that this is an unchangeable fate, I still miss her short hair and the way she smiled at me, and even the temperature she accidentally touched when she handed me the guitar...... I remember it all.

I looked at Yang Qu...... I wanted to warn her not to touch that guitar. But she returned to her normal state and asked me, "Brother, do you know how to play the guitar?" …… But this guitar doesn't look like a boy's guitar, and even if you can play it, it's definitely not yours. ”

I nodded, and didn't speak again, like a portrait fixed in the center of the bedroom, wishing that everything was a game, because as long as it was a game, there were traces. I wonder if there are some people in life who really live for a lifetime.

As if sensing my strangeness, Yang Qu did not have a verbal fight with me anymore, she finally took her clothes and left the bed, while I sat on the bed and lit a cigarette, and then looked out the window at the world......

Everything outside the window was drenched, but the sun was hanging in the sky, and the air was filled with the smell of dampness, and I knew that it was the autumn tiger at work. It was also hot this time last year. Xiao Ai, she turned into my yard in a white dress. Later, we got acquainted, and she invited me to a cold beer at a restaurant near Nanyi...... Come to think of it, that autumn was really beautiful, although everything seemed like a small happiness, but it was much better than facing the huge city of Shanghai by myself now.

After sitting alone in the bedroom for a while, I left the apartment, and as I left, I warned Yang Qu not to let me see her again when I returned, but she only snorted.

……

Around noon, I really received a call from Qiao Ye. He told me that he had gotten off the highway and asked me to send him a location, so he came to me.

I entered a restaurant with a plane tree in front of the door, and immediately sent him my location on WeChat, while I kept playing with my phone while waiting. But in the end, I couldn't help but send a message to Jin Qiu, although it was impossible for me to go back to Nanjing to accompany her through the difficulties, but at least the greetings should still be there.

"Jin Qiu, I've heard Qin Miao say about the wedding company, I don't know how to comfort you, because in my heart, you are a stronger woman than anyone else, so you will definitely deal with these troubles yourself...... As a friend, I just hope that in the future, you will learn to enjoy life properly, because life is really too short, and money is endless...... I know that the whole company has to talk about the workload, and no one will be as big as you, so the sudden death of an employee is a tragedy and a wake-up call...... At this stage, you must pay attention to your body, maintain enough sleep and a good attitude, and it is best not to drive yourself...... You have to know that there must be people in this world who care about you, such as your parents, like me......"

After sending this message, I fell into a temporary distraction again, and I was also confused in what happened to Jin Qiu...... What are we living for so hard and tired? And what is the ideal way to live?

It wasn't until the phone vibrated on the table that I came back to my senses, it was a message from Jin Qiu's return. The content was very simple, only the word "thank you", but I seemed to see her haggard face.

In the process of distraction, an Audi A6 with a Nanjing license plate stopped at the door, and then Qiao Ye and Qin Miao got out of the car, to my surprise, Ade, who I hadn't seen for a long time, was also in their car, but he lost weight, much thinner than when I first went to Taipei.

The three of them walked into the restaurant one after another, Qiao Ye and Qin Miao sat on one side, and Ade and I sat together. I asked him, "Why are you here?" ”

Ade's eyes narrowed, and he replied: "I've been yelling recently, I've been in Suzhou, and I've gotten together with Aye twice in the middle, and we're brothers who can forget about the class gap now......"

"Why didn't you make an appointment with me?"

"Aye said do you want to be quiet now, tell me not to disturb you...... No, as soon as you have something, I'll come with him? ”

I nodded, and after a moment of silence, I asked Ade, "Why are you staying in Suzhou, didn't you go back to Taipei last time?" ”

"After a day back in Taipei, I went to Suzhou...... Didn't I tell you last time, I have a sister who opened a bubble tea shop on Pingjiang Road, and I have always wanted to do business in the mainland, so I asked her to help me keep an eye on it, and there happened to be a hotel to be transferred, so I came to take over...... With a little renovation, it will be open next month...... Aqiao, what about you? …… Is there something new going on? ”

"Well, after dinner later, I'll take you to a place, I'll tell you about the situation, and you can also help me with the staff, whether the staff can open a music bar."

Ade nodded, and I turned to Qin Miao and asked, "Why did you come with you, you didn't say you were coming to Shanghai on the phone yesterday?" ”

Qin Miao subconsciously glanced at Qiao Ye, and after a period of silence, he replied with a solemn expression: "None of the people here are outsiders, so I'll tell you the truth...... I came this time because I made an appointment with the most famous private investigator in Shanghai, and I wanted to find the news of Su Han and the child...... I want to bring that kid over, maybe it's selfish...... But I have to. ”

I was a little stunned, because I didn't expect Qin Miao to really figure it out so quickly, and there were follow-up actions. I asked Qiao Ye again, "Have you decided to do the same?" ”

Qiao Ye closed his eyes and sighed, then opened his eyes and smiled, "Don't you think this is the best result for everyone?" …… Su Han, she should also have a new life of her own. If she takes this child with her, it will be difficult for her to have a new life...... And we also need this child here, he or she is my flesh and blood......"

Qiao Ye didn't say any more, and Qin Miao beside him also turned his head at this time, their small actions made me really feel that although some things were determined to do, it didn't mean that the thorn in my heart would really be pulled out.

As Qin Miao, if there was a little way, how could she accept Su Han and Qiao Ye's children? But she had been tricked by fate to the point that no one had any choice.

……

After eating at the restaurant, Qin Miao took a taxi and left alone, she went to find the most famous private detective in Shanghai, while Qiao Ye and Ade and I drove towards Yao Yao's old factory.

I was not idle on the road, and when I walked to the exit of the Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway, I said to Qiao Ye, who was driving beside me: "I'll tell you about the music bar later...... Do you see the exit of the Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway over there? ”

"Don't look, that's where I just got off."

I nodded, and then said, "You know, there are hundreds of thousands of people who come to Shanghai from Jiangsu every day through this road, don't you think there is a huge business opportunity hidden here?" …… If you come to Shanghai to do business, do you want to plunge headlong into the busy city to find a hotel, or do you want to drive ten minutes after getting off the expressway, there will be a hotel that is not only stylish, but also quiet, and the fee is not high? …… Really, when you get to the factory, you will know that there is a lot of room for free play, and it is definitely not comparable to the inch of land in the urban area...... Moreover, many express hotels now have a bad reputation, which is also a particularly big opportunity for us. ”

Qiao Ye glanced at me and replied, "I really can't figure it out, your mother has a ready-made five-star hotel, you don't want it, you have to come here to make a hotel?" ”

I seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water in my face, so I whispered: "You know my situation better than anyone else, don't mention this stubble if you are a brother." ”

Qiao Ye smiled and replied: "I just made a joke, in fact, I can enjoy the process of starting my own business, which is more enjoyable than taking over the family's industry, which Ade knows best, right?" ”

Ade took over the conversation and said with a smile: "That's a necessary roar, now every day I live feels like a living person, with ideals and goals, the excitement of watching myself get closer to success little by little, can only be experienced by myself." ”

As we spoke, we came to the old factory, Qiao Ye was the last to get out of the car, he stopped at the river opposite the factory and looked around, then nodded and said: "This place has good feng shui, and the horizon is also very broad, if you develop it well, you can indeed make it look like that." ”

"Do you still believe in Feng Shui?"

"There are a few people who don't believe in feng shui and have been studying feng shui recently."

I sighed: "You really do a line of love!" ”

Qiao Ye smiled, and then walked towards the factory before us, looking like an investor, in fact, he was far from the realm of an investor, and it was only two or three months before he began to take over the family business.

After entering the courtyard, Qiao Ye looked around again, and he said again: "It's much better than I imagined...... If you are a hotel, you should have a head ...... By the way, what's going on with your music bar? ”

I was about to explain the situation when my phone rang in my pocket, and I took it out and looked at it...... It's an unfamiliar number, but the place of belonging is Shenzhen, but it's not Yang Jin's number, so it must be Yang Qu's.

I hesitated, but I got through, and she said to me on the other end of the phone in a provocative tone, "Jiangqiao Oba...... I'll tell you something that you probably don't want to hear, that I sold your precious guitar...... Do you want to guess how much it was sold? …… Don't hate me, I'm really for your good, because ...... Alas, because you only have a few hundred dollars left in your body, is a few hundred dollars enough to do here? A taxi is not enough to go around Shanghai...... Ha ha! ”
