Qin Ren still found the riverside, proving that his hunch was not wrong. That's located in the beads. On one of the banks of the river, it was already nearly three watches at night, and Qin Ren felt a little disappointed, because Liu Hai was not there, and he was going to come again tomorrow morning.

However, he saw another person standing by the river, Liu Xiaoxue was wearing a short black skirt and white shirt, standing calmly, the soft moonlight sprinkled on her body, as if draped in a light veil, looking more white, hazy and unattainable.

At that moment, Qin Ren had an illusion in a trance.

Liu Xiaoxue also saw Qin Ren, the two looked at each other for three seconds, and then she suddenly jumped down the river, Qin Ren didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly jumped down.

Three minutes later, Qin Ren rescued Liu Xiaoxue, who was pale. Qin Ren only found out at this time that Liu Xiaoxue didn't know how to swim.

After Liu Xiaoxue was rescued ashore, she sat on the ground with her hands on her knees, with a resentful look in her eyes. This gaze made Qin Ren feel a little surprised, he couldn't understand why such a young girl would have such a gaze.

Liu Xiaoxue suddenly said, in fact, I also jumped over the water like this a few years ago, and then a man saved me.

Qin Ren didn't speak, and sighed.

Liu Xiaoxue said again, do you want to know who that person is?

Qin Ren said no.

Liu Xiaoxue said with a strange look in her eyes, don't you really want to know who that person is? You saved me up, don't want to know why I jumped into the river?

Qin Ren said, I don't want to.

Liu Xiaoxue did not speak.

Qin Ren continued, it is your business to jump into the river, and it is my business to save you, there is no inevitable connection between the two, I have already done my thing, you don't need to explain the reason for jumping into the river, because the thing has happened, even if I know the reason again, I will still save you.

Liu Xiaoxue lowered her head and said, you are really strange.

Qin Ren smiled bitterly and said, In fact, the bigger reason is that it is useless for me to know, and what you want to say will naturally be said.

Even so, Liu Xiaoxue finally spoke up. She said that the first time I jumped into the river was because I wanted to know where people would go when they died, and I didn't understand the reason for jumping just now, I just wanted to jump.

Qin Ren sighed and said, you are a strange person.

Liu Xiaoxue continued, "Later, a man saved me. When she said this, her eyes shone brightly, he is a very mature person, so I slept with him for one night, and I like mature men, his name is Chen Ze.

Qin Ren was surprised in his heart, and said in silence, what happened later?

Liu Xiaoxue looked at Qin Ren and said, do you want to know?

Qin Ren nodded.

Liu Xiaoxue said, no, after I slept with him for one night, he left the next morning, I begged him bitterly, but he still had to go, I even threatened him with suicide again, but after all, I couldn't keep him.

Qin Ren said, it seems that you like him very much

Well, Liu Xiaoxue said, I really like him, the charm of a mature man in him deeply attracted me, and I experienced that heart-pounding feeling for the first time.

Qin Ren didn't speak.

Liu Xiaoxue's eyes were very excited, and she continued, I remember that it was night, just like tonight, although the moonlight was not very bright and not as bright as tonight. When he got me out of the water, I was soaking wet. So we did it naturally, and I still remember the heart-pounding sensation and urge he felt like he touched my skin with his generous palm, which I will never forget.

Qin Ren still didn't speak.

Liu Xiaoxue said, now do you think I'm very. Dang, is she a shameless woman?

Qin Ren shook his head and said no, what a person wants to do, as long as he likes it and is willing, and as long as it doesn't affect other people.

Liu Xiaoxue said, you are really a very strange person.

Qin Ren smiled bitterly and said, maybe.

Liu Xiaoxue smiled and did not speak. After a while, she said, you are also a very mature man.

How mature? Qin Ren asked.

Liu Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and said, you are very mature, mature enough to let me do that kind of thing with you, I like to do things with mature men. After a pause, she added, "Now I won't resist whatever you do to me."

Qin Ren approached her, Liu Xiaoxue's heart fluttered, and she closed her eyes. Then Qin Ren said, it's late at night, the weather is cold, let's go back early. After finishing speaking, Qin Ren left.

Liu Xiaoxue felt a little angry, and she followed Qin Ren all the way back.

Qin Ren said. What are you doing with me?

Liu Xiaoxue said, I am homeless.

Qin Ren didn't speak again, at the moment he was still thinking about this riverside in his heart, and he wanted to come again tomorrow morning.

After Liu Xiaoxue followed Qin Ren back to the rented room, she fell asleep on the bed. Qin Ren went to the next note.

Liu Xiaoxue said, you are a bar owner, why do you live in this small and narrow dilapidated house?

Qin Ren said, because it's good.

Liu Xiaoxue sniffed hard with her nose and said that there seemed to be a woman's smell in this room.

Qin Ren said, there may be something wrong with your nose.

Liu Xiaoxue stood up and said resolutely, I have no problem with my nose, this room definitely smells of a woman, it is a fragrance of orchids, it smells faint and very good, it is absolutely impossible for a man to have this kind of smell.

Qin Ren didn't speak again.

The next morning, Liu Xiaoxue woke up to find that there was no one in the room anymore, and there was only one pot of noodles on the table. She tried to eat two bites and found it delicious, so she finished the whole pot of noodles.

After eating the noodles, she began to rummage through the things in the house, last night she had a dream, she dreamed of a girl in a white dress sitting under a tree quietly reading a book, the girl's face was very blurry and she couldn't see clearly, but this person gave her a very strange feeling, and she never forgot that dream.

Liu Xiaoxue kept flipping through it, and at noon, she finally pulled out a stack of photos in an old torn coat, as well as an old-fashioned camera. She looked at the photos and felt familiar, the girl in the photos was beautiful, doing various poses and movements, like a model. She had a happy smile on her face, and that smile was innocent, without a trace of pollution.

It seems that after a long time, the photo has been yellowed, but the girl's youthful breath can still be seen from the photo, and at the same time, she has a long-lost sense of nostalgia in her heart.

She flipped through the back of the photo and found two words written on the back, "bubble".

……

When Qin Ren came back, it was already night, and he felt very disappointed, because he had waited for a day by the river and didn't see bangs. When I returned to the rented room, Liu Xiaoxue had already cooked the meal, smiled and said, Come and try my craft.

Qin Ren came over to eat two bites and found that it was not bad, and he hadn't eaten all day today, so he gobbled up all the meals.

After they finished eating, they went to the bar, and as before, the college students were still waiting outside, as if they really knew when Qin Ren would come. When they saw Qin Ren and Liu Xiaoxue together, their faces did not show any surprise, as if they had never known her when they came out, and there were other girls around them, tall and indifferent.

Liu Xiaoxue said disdainfully, they will only swagger, cheat, cheat, and then let the junior girls pay the bills for them, in fact, they are just a group of people who do not learn and do not know how to live, and they will only live on women.

Qin Ren doesn't think so, he thinks that a person is not born to rely on others, everyone can use their own strength to survive in society, and moreover, he sees the vitality of youth in them.

Liu Xiaoxue said that it was not vitality, but naivety and lies.

Qin Ren didn't speak again.

The group of college students drank until midnight before leaving, and they were still school girls when they checked out.

Liu Xiaoxue yawned and said, it's so late, shouldn't she go back to sleep?

Qin Ren said that he was not sleepy, he wanted to continue to stay here.

Liu Xiaoxue didn't speak, and fell asleep on the table.

The next morning, he got up and went to the river again, but he still didn't see bangs, which made him very anxious. When he went back, he saw Chen ** and Liu Xiaoxue chatting at the bar, looking very happy.

Chen **'s purpose in coming here is the same as before, to persuade Qin Ren to become a manager.

Qin Ren didn't say yes like last time, he only thought about how to find bangs by that river.

Chen ** looked very disappointed, and left sullenly after saying that he would not give up and would continue to come.

Liu Xiaoxue said that he seemed to be very rich.

Yes, Qin Ren said.

Liu Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and said, maybe I can go and be his mistress.

Qin Ren said that he was once married, but then divorced when he didn't get along.

That's even better, Liu Xiaoxue said happily.

Three days later, she packed her luggage and came to Chen **'s house, in fact, she didn't have any luggage, but just took the stack of photos away.

……

A month later, Qin Ren received a letter from Bubble with a photo of her. In the photo, the foam is slightly thin, standing next to the sea, the sea breeze blowing her hair and her dress flying. Bubbles smiled brightly, just like the innocent smile that was not polluted at all.

Qin Ren unfolded the letter:

"Qin Ren:

I went to the sea. The South Island is gone, and I don't know why I ended up at sea. South Island, but it's beautiful, and the sea is really wide and beautiful, so I'll take a picture for you, do you see that?

I felt guilty for not saying goodbye last time, but I think you can definitely understand me, I'm in the sea. After a day of strolling around and another day at the sea, I felt very calm in my heart, as if I had forgotten everything, listening to the sound of the waves of the sea. I kind of regret why I didn't learn some instruments when I was a kid so that I could listen to the sound of the waves and play my favorite music and have my own memories.

You can rest assured, my mood is much better now, very stable, only occasionally at night I suddenly forget to look at everything, my brain is blank, as if I suddenly fell into a strange place, I feel very helpless. But it was only for a short while, and soon I thought about everything again, especially Qin Ren, including when I was with you before.

I don't know how to express my feelings, I've always been a very stupid person, but I still want to say, thank you for walking with me for so long.

I really want to be with you immediately, to see the sea together and listen to the sound of the waves. But I can't, because I'm not good yet, and I said I want to give you a complete me, so please wait for me a little longer.

Don't read it.

foam

12 April 2005"

After reading the letter, Qin Ren carefully folded the letter and put it under the pillow. He thought, if he could, hope to be able to watch the sea with Bubbles in his dreams.
