Tang Qiuli was slightly stunned, his gaze retracted from the Dingbian City shrouded in fire trees and silver flowers on the distant horizon, looking at Liu Xinlan in the sun, her bright eyes, and a strange feeling in her heart surged up.

"The past! The past can be looked back, warm and sweet, pain and sadness are intertwined, the depths of the Northeast Daxing'an Mountains, on the bank of the Huangni River, under the high mountain cliffs, the empty grave overgrown with wild grass, buried his first love that was hard to remember, afraid to remember, but also dare not forget jì, think of it, it will be heart-rending pain, forget jì, memory will appear a blank, life will be missing. ”

"Xinlan, do you really want to know?" Tang Qiuli's gaze became blurred, and his voice became empty and distant, as if floating from the deep night sky to Liu Xinlan's ears.

Liu Xinlan hesitated, she saw too much content from this man's gaze, full of memories and pain, perhaps, the past in the Northeast was the weakness he was most unwilling to touch in his heart, but he wanted to know, otherwise, he couldn't get out of his heart, even if he hurt his beloved man again.

Liu Xinlan nodded silently, left Tang Qiuli's arms, sat on the fluffy and soft dry grass opposite him, clasped his hands on his knees, and looked at him fixedly.

Tang Qiuli sighed silently, a thick melancholy appeared in his eyes, and said: "Okay, Xinlan, I have long wanted to find an opportunity to let you know my past qiē, but I didn't expect that in this day, my story is very long, and the ending is not so happy, but I still want to tell you, for you, for me, but also for Uncle Zhang and Auntie." ”

Tang Qiuli took a deep breath and suppressed his mixed feelings. Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, it seems that the bright moon turned into that unforgettable smiling face, and under the cold moonlight, the figure that came in curling was still beautiful and clear, and the tide of the past instantly submerged him.

I don't know how long it took for Tang Qiuli to wake up from his dream-like telling. On her face, she was already covered with tears, but Liu Xinlan couldn't cry.

Tang Qiuli wiped a handful of cold tears on his face and hugged Liu Xinlan in his arms. said sourly: "Silly girl, my story is not good. Don't be sad! ”

Liu Xinlan's shoulders shook violently. buried his head deep in his warm embrace, and after a long time, he stopped crying, raised his tearful face, and said, "Qiuli, I'm sorry." I shouldn't let you revisit the sad past, I'm so ignorant, I always feel that I have been greatly wronged, but. Compared to the sister I have never met, I am lucky to have you by my side! ”

Tang Qiuli smiled silently, and in his smile, there was a lingering sadness, "There are beautiful women in the north, who are independent and independent, take care of the city, and then look at the country, rather than know the city and the country, the beauty is hard to get!" He groaned, and a layer of tears filled his eyes again, and in the tears, the beautiful woman came from the moonlight.

Liu Xinlan's heart was shocked again, she could hear that this man's chant was full of too much melancholy and sadness, as well as that kind of painstaking and unforgettable thoughts, infinite regret and pain, "It's hard to be a beauty...... Again! She muttered a little stupid.

"Autumn leaves, the beauty can be obtained again! I want to be the shadow in your heart, the inner sister, the real me, Qiuli, you overlap us! Liu Xinlan suddenly said excitedly, and gasped for her bold idea.

Tang Qiuli's heart was shocked, he never thought that Liu Xinlan would come up with such an idea, that is to say, this girl's heart knot has been untied, and she affectionately stroked Liu Xinlan's long black hair, and said: "Silly girl, how can that be too wronged by you, I don't need you to be anyone's shadow, you are my Tang Qiuli's Xinlan, you two can't overlap, because in my life, both of you are my most important people, one, in my heart, one in my eyes and heart!" ”

Liu Xinlan looked up at him and said anxiously: "No, Qiuli, do that, I won't lose myself, but because of the love of two people, I can better experience today's happiness, and I can be by your side, and I will also take care of you for Sister Ling!" ”

Tang Qiuli's eyes were full of doting, and there was a trace of helplessness, this girl had just untied a knot in her heart, and she had entered another misunderstanding, there was really no way to explain it, but for Liu Xinlan, it was a little heavy, now, obviously not the time to discuss this issue, the timing and atmosphere were not suitable, I didn't see the excited crimson on the little girl's cheeks, and she was excited for her bold idea.

Tang Qiuli got up, picked up Liu Xinlan, gently put it on the ground, pointed to the moon in the sky and said, "Xinlan, look, the moon is almost west, and the fireworks in Dingbian City have ended, okay, Sister Ting, they should be in a hurry!" "Also, when she and Liu Xinlan came out, it was three or four hours, and Mei Ting didn't worry about it.

Liu Xinlan stuck out her little tongue and nodded, but obviously she still had something to say, hesitating, not wanting to go back immediately, Tang Qiuli asked strangely: "Xinlan, is there anything else?" It's windy outside, it's cold, don't freeze, what's the matter, let's go back and talk about it, okay? ”

Liu Xinlan's face suddenly became stern and said, "Qiu Li, I'm talking about a big matter, I can only talk about the two of us here!" ”

Looking at Liu Xinlan with a tight little face, Tang Qiuli said helplessly: "Okay, I'm done listening to you, let's go back," Then, he wrapped her coat tightly and shaved Liu Xinlan's slightly upturned little nose.

Liu Xinlan's eyes exuded a sparkling light, and said: "Qiuli, I have an idea, tomorrow, you accompany me to Uncle Zhang and Auntie's house, I have lost my parents since I was a child, and I have not experienced the love of my parents, the eyes of the two old people looking at me, so that I can't ignore it, I can't avoid it, and I can't forget it, since I am willing to be the shadow of Sister Ling, then I will treat the two old people who lost their daughters as my biological parents, you say, is this good?" ”

Tang Qiuli's heart suddenly relaxed as if he had wings, flying to the night sky, he has always had this idea in his heart, for Liu Xinlan, she can experience the warmth of family affection, her love for her is another feeling, for the two old people of the Zhang family, you can comfort the lonely and helpless heart after losing Xiaoling, after all, a girl who looks exactly like her daughter, from the bones, has a sense of identity, which is a good thing for everyone to be happy!

Tang Qiuli hugged Liu Xinlan and said emotionally: "Xinlan, you are so cute now!" After speaking, on Liu Xinlan's smooth forehead, there was a deep kiss.

Liu Xinlan deliberately pursed her mouth and said, "Then I'm not cute at other times?" ”

"It's not! No! My heart orchid is the loveliest at any time! Tang Qiuli hurriedly added, "In order to punish me for my slip of the tongue, say Xinlan, meet your request!" Anything goes! ”

Liu Xinlan's beautiful eyes, with a sly flash, flashed a few times, and said: "Okay, accept your sincerity, I'm tired, carry me down the mountain!" Untying the knot in her heart that had been entangled for a long time, she regained her intelligent and agile character.

Tang Qiuli laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this! Not to mention such a trivial thing as holding my wife down the mountain, even if you hug me for a lifetime, I will never get tired of it, and I have no regrets! ”

Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, along the mountain road covered by green pines and cypresses, Tang Qiuli hummed an out-of-tune song in his mouth, and drove the car like flying, Liu Xinlan's crisp laughter was sprinkled all the way.

When he arrived at the door of the house, there was an emergency stop, "crunch", the jeep stopped steadily in front of the gate, Tang Qiuli jumped out of the car briskly, and picked up Liu Xinlan's slender waist, "Madam, please get out of the car, let's go home!" He said loudly, with a sense of lightness and joy in his voice.

The two special guards who saw the car lights from a distance hurriedly greeted them, "Division commander, the eldest lady commanded, after you come back, don't go back to the house first, wait for the second lady and the captain to come back, and then go in together, we will immediately go to inform the eldest lady that you are back." ”

"Oh!" Tang Qiuli was stunned for a moment, and then understood Mei Ting's intentions, and couldn't help but feel warm for his wife's carefulness and thoughtfulness, but he didn't expect this.

"Go ahead! Bring a few extra cars! He commanded succinctly, the two special guards saluted and left, Tang Qiuli looked into the courtyard from the gap in the door, the living room, the lights were still brilliant, it was already about one o'clock in the second half of the day, and his parents had not rested, obviously waiting for him to come back.

Twenty minutes later, at least a dozen jeeps stopped at the door, this formation startled Tang Qiuli, and he muttered to himself in his heart, could it be that something big happened in Outer Mongolia? The first to jump out of the car was not Mei Ting, Mei Xue or Mountain Tiger, but Gao Chuangshan, director of the Dingbian Secret Service Bureau.

Gao Chuangshan trotted in front of Tang Qiuli, with a relieved expression, "snapped" and said loudly: "Report to the division commander, Gao Chuangshan is inspecting the safety and security work in Dingbian City, and I learned that the division commander has returned safely, so I came to visit!" ”

"Huh?" Tang Qiu looked at Gao Chuangshan suspiciously, with a stern face, and muttered to himself in his heart, why is this Gao Chuangshan talking strangely, what does it mean to return safely, and he didn't go to the front line to fight?

"Gao Chuangshan, what kind of reputation are you doing? Check the safety and security work in the city, what are you doing here with me? What does it mean to return safely, is it, I went to Longtan Tiger's Den, what are you visiting? If you do more, go and do your job right away! Tang Qiuli said with a frown.

"Ugh!" Gao Chuangshan paused for a moment, and said in his heart, "My living ancestor, you don't know, in the past three or four hours, my heart has not fallen into my stomach, and I am as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, if there is an accident, I will have no way to live, and those old guys in the army will not skin me alive!" ”
