Chapter 334: Engrave Your Name
The next day, a drunken hangover somewhat made Xia Yan not wake up from the chaotic state.
The morning sun shined through the glass window on his sleepy-eyed face, and there was a burst of warmth.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, subconsciously used his hands to block some dazzling light, and the memories of last night, like a tide gushing out, gradually surfaced in his mind.
After saying goodbye last night, Xia Yan knew that he didn't seem to have a reason to meet Gu Qiqi again. I vaguely remember that when she mentioned another man in front of herself, her eyes flashed with happiness. Although he drank a lot of wine at that time, he knew that he had already left Gu Qiqi in his past memories.
And he, inadvertently, also lost the qualification to have her.
"I, after all, still lost her." The corners of his mouth hooked up a self-deprecating smile, propped himself on the bed with one hand, lifted the quilt covering his body, and landed firmly on the ground with one turnover.
The group photo placed at the head of the bed, under the refraction of the sunlight, glows with a faint halo. Xia Yan stared at the photo in a daze for a long time, and in a trance, he seemed to be back in college, the sweet memories that belonged to him and Gu Qiqi.
An unprecedented thought suddenly came to his mind.
He decided to go to the place he once wanted to go alone and leave Gu Qiqi's mark.
In this way, a trip that was just going to take root took root in his heart. With little time to prepare, he packed his bags and embarked on a lonely journey with memories of the past.
When he was a student, due to the limitations of his own conditions, he did not have the opportunity to take Gu Qiqi to the place he wanted to go and see the scenery of the sea and rivers together.
But now, when he knows how to stop, he is alone.
"Leave your name here, you can come with me." The imprints of one stroke after another were reflected in Xia Yan's reddened eyes.
He held a small carving knife in his right hand, and with great seriousness but care, engraved the name of the woman he loved.
It's like putting the mark of his name on the tip of his heart over and over again.
"What about you, lad! You vandalize public property in public, believe it or not, I will arrest you and take you to the police station! With a loud reprimand, a man in a police uniform, holding a baton in his right hand, hurriedly ran in the direction where Xia Yan was.
If it weren't for the report from the tourist, he really didn't know that someone would destroy the trees in the scenic area so openly.
As if waking up from a dream, Xia Yan broke free from that unforgettable memory, grabbed the backpack at his side with his right hand, and ran away non-stop.
By the time the man ran under the big tree where Xia Yan had just stayed, Xia Yan had long since disappeared.
"What the hell is this stinky boy carved?" The man scolded in his mouth, panting, and couldn't help but look up and down at the big tree in front of him.
"Gu Qiqi?" The man was slightly stunned, rubbing his fingertips back and forth on the carved name, for some reason, he always felt that behind this name, there was another story buried.
In this way, Xia Yan would engrave Gu Qiqi's name in an inconspicuous corner everywhere he went. Although, during this period, he was discovered by many administrators, and even driven away. In the face of their angry scolding, he didn't take it to heart at all. Still following his own goals, doing things that can only move him.
One day, Natsuhiko came to a vast and endless beach. Since it was not a holiday, there were few tourists and no one noticed him.
The sound of the waves crashing against the shore reef echoed in his ears. He opened his hands as if hugging the blue sea in front of him, and took a deep breath.
"Qiqi, if you can come, it would be fine." Xia Yan muttered in his mouth, picked up a branch from the ground casually, and sketched Gu Qiqi's name on the soft sand.
"Big brother, is this your name?" A girl dressed like a student couldn't help but come to Xia Yan's side and watched him write a person's name one by one.
Xia Yan shook his head, drew a heart at the end, and when he got up, he confided in the girl that this was the name of the woman he loved.
"I want to leave her name wherever I ever wanted to go, even if she accompanied me and visited every scenery." The soft voice brushed the tip of the girl's heart like a feather.
She looked at Xia Yan's affectionate eyes in a daze, her nose was sour, and she was suddenly moved by his behavior.
This big brother must love that little sister very much.
The girl was a little moved, and couldn't help but guess secretly.
"If you have the chance, bring her with you." Thinking that Xia Yan was a crush, the girl couldn't help but encourage him, and pursued it if she liked it.
Looking at the innocent little girl in front of him, Xia Yan sneered, as if he saw Gu Qiqi at that time.
"But I've lost her and can't get her back." He subconsciously glanced at the name left on the beach, and a bitter smile crossed the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and asked the little girl to help him take a picture with his name.
"It's very likely, it's the last time I'll be here. So, I want to leave some thoughts for myself. ”
The girl was slightly stunned, then showed a bright smile at him, and spat out a word from her mouth: "Okay." ”
The moment you press the shoot button, it's as if eternity freezes in this moment.
After waving goodbye to Xia Yan, the girl had an idea in her heart, wanting this regrettable story to upload to the post bar, so that more people know that there is such a man who is infatuated with girls.
Unexpectedly, not long after it was released, it caused heated discussions among netizens. Some self-operated media saw that this matter was in the heat of the day, and found the protagonist of the story and made a simple interview.
Although, at the request of Xia Yan, the video posted by the media on Weibo played a mosaic. But it was still Gu Qiqi, and it was clear at a glance that that the man was Xia Yan.
The moment she saw the hot search, she had an unbelievable expression on her face, and even thought it was just an April Fool's joke, but after she watched it repeatedly, that interview. My heart tightened, as if I had lost something, and it was empty.
"What the hell is this idiot doing!" Gu Qiqi roughly browsed around, and the comments at the bottom of Weibo. The praise and criticism were mixed, but it still made her heart more or less, and a touch of strange emotions crossed it.
Especially when she sees the keyboard warrior openly abusing underneath, she can't help but want to refute and defend Xia Yan.
Seeing this, more and more people know about it. Gu Qiqi was in a hurry and dialed Xia Yan's number.
The long beep gradually wore down her patience. Just when she thought that Xia Yan would not answer her phone, a slightly tired hoarse male voice slowly poured out from the earpiece.
"You're finally willing to call me." Xia Yan leaned on the head of the bed, a smile that seemed to be absent, rippling at the corner of his mouth, but it reflected the more and more bitter emotions in his heart.
Gu Qiqi clutched the mobile phone in his palm, and the guilt spread all over his body. She opened her mouth, and the words that had been carefully considered were once again choked in her throat, so that she could not say anything.
Even the hidden anger disappeared in an instant after hearing the exhaustion between the lines of his words.
"It's because of that thing on the Internet, right?" The silence on the other end of the phone made Xia Yan couldn't help but open his mouth to break it, he knew what Gu Qiqi was thinking, but he didn't know how to mention it.
"Xia Yan, you're not worth doing that at all." Gu Qiqi tried his best to hide it, choked up in his words, and didn't want the man on the other end of the phone to notice her strange abnormality.
After all, they can't go back to the past, so why don't they let go of themselves?
His behavior like this will only make him deeply memorized and make himself bruised.
"Qiqi, why isn't it worth it? I did this just to fulfill my unfulfilled wish. As for being on the news, I really didn't expect it. I apologize to you for causing you any trouble. ”
Gu Qiqi took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and talked to Xia Yan rationally.
"Where are you now? I would like to talk to you in person now. ”
Unable to allow Xia Yan to refuse, Gu Qiqi didn't even think about it, just on the side of the road in front of his house, he took a car and left the house.
"Qiqi, where are you going?" The friend who was cooking in the kitchen couldn't help but chase out and shout when he saw Gu Qiqi rushing out of the house in a hurry.
However, except for the residual exhaust fumes, which made her cough, Gu Qiqi's figure had already followed the taxi and disappeared.
According to the address provided by Xia Yan, Gu Qiqi came to a hotel more than ten kilometers away from his home.
As soon as Xia Yan opened the door, before he could speak, Gu Qiqi pushed him and pushed him to the sofa in the living room.
"Qiqi, I'm very happy to see you." Xia Yan still looked at his beloved woman with soft eyes.
He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, and he didn't want to force Gu Qiqi to do anything.
Leaving Gu Qiqi's mark on the trip, in his opinion, was nothing more than a farewell ceremony.
The unstoppable attachment continued, and he continued this journey like a moth to a fire, unwilling to stop.
"Xia Yan, this is simply a superfluous move, I hope you can dispel your thoughts, I won't stop you wherever you want to go." Gu Qiqi tried to persuade him to give up by attaching conditions, this kind of nonsensical move.
However, after an afternoon of arguing between the two, Gu Qiqi felt that he was no longer powerless to make decisions for him.
"Qiqi, maybe you don't understand, this is a way for me to love you." Xia Yan subconsciously stretched out his hand and stroked her hair as before.
However, this time, he was dodged by Gu Qiqi without a trace.
Xia Yan's hand hanging in the air stiffened slightly, and after a long while, he put it down curtly, lowering his eyes to cover the lost emotions remaining in his eyes.
