It's been five years in the blink of an eye.

London, England, on a rainy afternoon.

Shi Ning just hung up the transatlantic phone call from his parents.

It has reached the graduation season of graduate school, and his parents have called him several times, telling him about the development and changes in China in recent years, and there are more and more opportunities, hoping that he can return to China as soon as possible.

In fact, Shi Ning also knows very well that his parents sent him to study in the UK because they wanted him to return to China after completing his studies and better take over his father's company.

It's a pity that he was reluctant and awkward when he came, and felt that his parents controlled his life. Now, he has no intention of returning to China. Even he didn't expect that after four years of undergraduate studies in the UK, he would continue to apply for graduate studies in British schools, and two years had passed in a flash. He seems to have adapted to life abroad.

Or, maybe it's just because the person who worried about him at the beginning is long gone.

When he returned to China, he was afraid that in a familiar place and a familiar scene, he would remember everything about her.

Five years ago, Han Jingyi brought Cheng Qingge to him. Cheng Qingge swore that he persuaded Shi Ning to go abroad for further study, and when the time came, she would also come with him. He was so naïve to believe it.

Looking back now, I really wasn't mature enough at that time.

He came to know that many things simply didn't go the way he wanted them to. There are too many things that will deviate from your expectations, and when you are immature, you will try your best to control the development of things, and eventually you will be sad and depressed. And when I grow up and mature, I just smile slightly, and everything can be looked down on.

However, those past events did not go away with the wind, but were buried deep in the bottom of the heart, maybe one accidentally touched, and sadness will come to me.

At that time, Shi Ning was excited and expectant to take a flight to the UK, but he didn't know that the end had already begun to be staged. At the beginning, Cheng Qingge still maintained a certain amount of contact with him, and the two often made appointments for video chats, and they had to meet each other across the ocean. But unconsciously, as Shi Ning's study and life in the UK gradually got on the right track, when he took time to urge Cheng Qingge to prepare for the study abroad exam, the contact between the two suddenly became unstable.

Cheng Qingge often said that because of the time difference, they couldn't talk too late in class the next day and canceled their video appointment for no reason. And every time she asks her about her preparations to go abroad, she always prevaricates casually, and there seems to be no progress. Later, gradually, even the conversations on WeChat were decreasing little by little. Shi Ning still remembers their last few WeChat conversations, almost all of them were talking on the screen, and Cheng Qingge just replied yes, or um.

Shi Ning already had a bad premonition. Several times of contact with Cheng Qingge were as plain as white starts, and he guessed that something must have gone wrong. So he began to seriously plan to ask for leave and return to China to ask Cheng Qingge about the matter. Unexpectedly, just when he had bought his air tickets, Han Jingyi suddenly fell ill in the UK and developed a high fever.

There was no way, the unexpected situation and the urging of his family, he had to refund the booked ticket and take care of the sick Jingyi temporarily. Unexpectedly, because of the different medical environments and concepts abroad and abroad, Han Jingyi had a cold that dragged on for more than a month. When Shi Ning had a high fever a few days ago, he took care of her almost every inch of the day, and he didn't have time to take care of his emotional problems anymore.

Later, Jingyi gradually improved, and Shi Ning began to think about the problem between him and Cheng Qingge again. Han Jingyi also found out that Shi Ning would often do things halfway, so he was stunned for a long time.

Later, the two chatted, and Shi Ning learned that Cheng Qingge had promised Han Jingyi to persuade him to reconcile with his parents. Only then did he know that his mother Zhou Qing had already met Cheng Qingge before Han Jingyi. Of course, he knew his mother's personality, and he could also imagine what Zhou Qing and Cheng Qingge would say when they met, and he could also guess what kind of pressure Cheng Qingge was under at that time. However, he didn't even know these things at the beginning!

If he knew about this, he would not easily believe Cheng Qingge's words that he would accompany him to study abroad. And all this also confirms why Cheng Qingge deliberately alienated him a little bit later.

His heart was full of chagrin, and there was a hint of blame for his parents for controlling his life too much.

He was also thinking that if he hadn't been born in such a family, would he have had an ordinary love with the person he liked.

And just when all this seemed to have been revealed, Cheng Qingge suddenly sent a message of breaking up, and also made it clear that the things he promised him to go abroad were all white lies, and he wanted him to forget her.

After a month of hard work to take care of Han Jingyi, coupled with the blow of learning all kinds of truths, Shi Ning's whole person suddenly became very decadent. He even suspected that his life was like a joke, studying abroad with joy, waiting for his girlfriend to cross the ocean, but he didn't expect to wait for a breakup.

Shi Ning also felt that he was really tired, since he met Cheng Qingge, he had been constantly trying to get close to her and get closer to her. She had rejected his confession again and again, kept her distance from him, and he never gave up his efforts.

However, at this moment, he suddenly wanted to admit defeat. This frustration had never been seen in his nearly twenty years of life. He even wanted to clear everything about Cheng Qingge from his mind, he would rather he had never known her.

Since then, Shi Ning has never mentioned returning to China again, and he only returns to China with Han Jingyi once a year during the Spring Festival during the four years of college. The rest of the time he was immersed in his studies.

Even Han Jingyi felt that Shi Ning seemed to be a completely different person. It seems that his beloved guitar was never picked up again, and the matter of the band was never mentioned again. He didn't pay much attention to lectures in class before, but he actually became a student who studied hard in the library every day.

is like those martial arts masters in martial arts who have completely broken off their seven emotions and six desires after being emotionally frustrated, and can practice peerless martial arts. Without the emotional ties, Shi Ning made rapid progress in his studies, not only got an undergraduate degree with excellent grades, but was also specially recommended, and was successfully admitted to the graduate school, becoming the professor's favorite and proud student, often taking him to do research together.

During this period, Shi Ning witnessed the whole process of Han Jingyi being pursued by the director of a famous fashion design company, and finally sent them his best wishes. As soon as Han Jingyi graduated from university, she successfully found her home, and the so-called marriage contract between the two of them was finally completely dissolved.

Without the constraints of this marriage contract, Shi Ning can no longer find someone he likes.

In the past few years, he has even been thinking that it is good to live like this alone. Without worry, you can concentrate on your career and studies, and achievements will come one after another, and you will enjoy the joy of this success.

Although the days are often busy and fulfilling, there is always time to spare.

At this time, he will inevitably feel empty in his heart.

I don't know when he started to love cooking for himself. On his day off, he takes a nap, then gets up to make himself a brunch, and then enjoys a quiet afternoon reading time with the aroma of coffee, which has also become his most reassuring time.

He even felt that life could go on like this, without shock, but there was no one worth touching anymore.

The guitar in the corner, he hadn't moved it in a long time. The guitar seems to record the frivolity of youth, but now youth is moving away.

However, when it comes to his love of cooking, he also has to mention the Internet celebrity account of a short video platform that he has followed in the past six months. The account was pushed by him when he was bored, and when he clicked on it, it was a girl who shared the whole process of making dinner after work.

The ingredients purchased, the kitchen utensils used, the heat for making, and the preparation of seasonings are all available, and the food handbook made by the girls will be recorded in detail at the end. However, there has never been a girl in front of the camera, always only a sweet voice and a pair of good-looking and slender hands.

The first time Shi Ning saw the content of this account, he felt warm and cordial.

The girl made a simple chicken curry rice that day.

Shi Ning, who happened to be on vacation, purchased ingredients according to the recipe on a whim, and came back to follow the steps of the video step by step and successfully made the first dinner in his life. And it is a complete farewell to foreign steaks, hamburgers, and fries, and finally I have the taste of Chinese food that I have not seen for a long time.

I didn't expect that from then on, it was out of control.

Every video of the video account, Shi Ning chases. Every video is liked and favorited.

During the holidays, he would go to the supermarket, buy all kinds of ingredients, and then come back and cook seriously according to the steps of the video. After the meal is cooked, the food in the house is fragrant, and he also learns to be like the heroine of the video, clinking glasses with himself, staying at home alone, and eating while chasing dramas.

He didn't expect that the smell of fireworks in the world would be so attractive.

Unknowingly, this female anchor who has never met has become Shi Ning's warmest pillar in her life in a foreign country.

This time, Shi Ning ushered in a rare long vacation, and he didn't arrange any travel plans, but followed all the video content in the collection. Later, it was finally achieved that there was no updated content for the female anchor.

Inadvertently, Shi Ning began to look forward to look at the old content posted by the video account.

flipped through it, and unconsciously turned to the video content from several years ago.

It can be seen that this should be the period when the female anchor first started to do the official account, and the number of clicks on the video is not as high as the latest video, but there are thousands of hearts.

Clicking on it casually, a scene in a video suddenly evoked all the memories in an instant.

It was a small video recommending Xiamen tourism for several consecutive episodes. Every scene is so familiar, the restaurant he likes, the hotel he used to stay in, the path he likes, the souvenir shop he likes......

The video is still the voice of the female anchor, but the voice suddenly becomes so familiar.

This...... Isn't it Cheng Qingge?

That voice he won't forget, it's Cheng Qingge's voice, that's right!

He looked at the latest video incredibly, and the sweet voice was still the Cheng Qingge he knew at the beginning! Although his voice has changed slightly after several years, it is indeed the voice he remembers! It's been so long, how come I haven't found out?

Is that really Cheng Qingge? Or maybe it's just a similar sound?

However, how to explain the content of the small video recommended by Xiamen Tour a few years ago?
