In the evening of this day, Xia Xue didn't turn on the lights, just in the twilight outside the window, leaning on the sofa in the living room alone. Suddenly it rained in the sky, and rolling thunder drifted overhead.

Xia Xue didn't cook. She expected that Koji would not return home on time. The hands of the clock were drawn to ten o'clock in the evening, and Koji still did not return home. Xia Xue stopped calling Xiaozhi, and when she returned home in the afternoon, she turned off her mobile phone.

The sound of the rain outside gradually became quieter, but the rain was still rapid and dense. Xia Xue held up an umbrella, walked out of the house, and went to the bus station to catch the last train. She got on the bus bound for the Haruko community, with only two or three passengers on board, and the smell of rain and freshness exuded in the sparse air.

The bus runs to the vicinity of the Haruko community and stops at the platform. Xia Xue picked up her umbrella and walked out of the car with a pale face. The rain is still falling, and the night sky is full of dark clouds.

Xia Xue stood under the eaves of the station, looking at the dead leaves scattered in the rain in confusion. Ten minutes later, Xia Xue plucked up her courage, held up her umbrella, and walked to the neighborhood in front of her.

Xia Xue stepped on the stagnant water on the road and stopped under a plane tree opposite the community. The huge umbrella covered Xia Xue's face, allowing her to quietly look at the gate of the community opposite. She looked around at the side of the road and didn't see Koji's car.

About half an hour later, a familiar car drove into the gate of the community from the outside. Xia Xue fixed her eyes and looked at the license plate number, which was Xiaozhi's car. It seems that Koji and Haruko went out to eat.

Xia Xue continued to wait under the tree, a cold wind blew, and the fallen leaves fell at Xia Xue's feet with raindrops.

Carry all before one. Xia Xue's heart is soaked in wisps of desolation. Words of sorrow and suffering cannot be appealed to words, only the heart can feel it. Koji will stay overnight here tonight? Xia Xue waited for more than an hour, but she didn't see Xiaozhi come out.

The rain intermittently sounded, and the dark clouds were swept away by the strong wind, slowly moving into the distance. If Xiaozhi doesn't go back tonight, Xia Xue plans to wait here until dawn. She didn't want to do anything special, she wouldn't go to any crime scene, and she couldn't go to that Haruko theory. She just, trying to confirm something, the purpose was vague and confusing.

It was close to midnight, and Xiaozhi's car drove out of the community, and the lights shone strongly on Xia Xue. Xia Xue lowered the handle of the umbrella and completely covered her face. The light of the headlights shone away in an instant, gradually driving away.

Haruko, I must hope that Koji can stay and spend the night with her, right? However, Xiaozhi has a family and is loyal to his destiny. No matter how long you wander outside, you will eventually have to go home. Xia Xue smiled with relief, Xiaozhi belonged to her, and no one could snatch it away.

Xia Xue went to the 24-hour supermarket not far in front of her, bought plum blossom seeds and bean chocolate, put it in a plastic bag, and carried it between her cold fingers. She walked out of the store slowly, the rain was pouring outside, and she held up her umbrella.

At this time, a young and beautiful girl walked past her and ran straight to the store. The girl, as if she had come from the opposite neighborhood, did not hold an umbrella, and her curled black hair was covered with crystal clear raindrops.

Xia Xue stopped, turned around, and recognized the girl. She is Haruko, full of vitality and youthful beauty. Haruko stood in front of the counter facing the door of the store and said hurriedly, "Do you have a condom?" The kind with pellets.

Inside the counter, there was a young man standing. He handed Haruko a box of things, and said ambiguously, there were more irritating particles. Also, the kind with a tow at the top. As he spoke, the young man took out a few more small boxes and pushed them in front of Haruko.

Haruko picked and chose left and right indifferently, and said without raising her head, if you men refuse to be with the girl you like, what is it for? Is it because the girls aren't cute enough, or are you afraid to take responsibility?

The boy was stunned for a moment and smiled. Sometimes the rejection is because we cherish that girl more and can't bear to let her bear the pain. Some emotions are unsustainable, so I have to endure the pain and cut my love.

But I don't want him to bear anything, let alone threaten his current life. Every time, I took the initiative, gave up all my self-esteem, and tried my best to please him like a dancer. I want him to see my charm and be completely impressed by my charm. But he just won't accept me, why is that? He had set up his tent and his breath was getting foggy and rapid, but he finally ran through the door.

Perhaps, if I buy a condom, he will let go of his worries? That way, he won't have to worry that there will be troubles that will drag him down. Haruko muttered to herself, her voice revealing extreme confusion.

Xia Xue raised her steps and walked towards the side of the road. A red taxi drove in the distance, Xia Xue waved her hand, and the car stopped. When Xia Xue returned home, she saw warm lights in the house.

Xia Xue put the snacks in her hand on the coffee table. Take off your jacket and put the bottoms with wet trouser legs in the washing machine.

Xiaozhi heard the movement and walked down from the second floor, looking at Xia Xue suspiciously. It's so late, where did you go?

Xia Xue smiled slightly and pointed to the snacks on the coffee table. I went out to buy something, and just now I was watching a Korean drama at home, and suddenly I felt like I wanted to have a snack. Would you like to come some?

Xiaozhi walked up to Xia Xue and gently hugged Xia Xue. Well, I'm not going to eat it. You go to bed early, too!

In the calm and peaceful middle of the night, Xia Xue and Xiaozhi lived in separate rooms and had nothing to do with each other. No one said, why did they come home so late? What are you busy out there? There was no interrogation, no accountability, and all the doubts in my heart were pressed in the bottom of my heart.

When she got up in the morning, Xia Xue made breakfast early. At half past six, I woke up Xiaozhi and asked him to go downstairs to eat.

After Xiaozhi finished eating, Xia Xue sent him to the courtyard. Xiaozhi got into the car, rolled down the window, and touched Xia Xue's pale face.

Xia Xue lowered her head and smiled, and said casually, Xiaozhi, let's live separately completely. You live in your own villa, you don't have to run to me every day, you seem to be quite busy with work lately. As for me, in a few days, I'm going to go to the company in the small town. There, with a new project, I guess I'm going to be busy until late every day, and I don't want to run to the city every day.

Koji, pondering for a while, did not get angry or question. He patted Xia Xue's cheek lightly and said, Okay! As long as you're happy.

Xia Xue smiled at Xiaozhi and nodded. Everything seemed breezy, as if nothing had happened. Xiaozhi rolled up the window, honked the horn, and drove away.

Looking at the shadow of Xiaozhi's car in the distance, Xia Xue's heart suddenly became empty. She suddenly regretted that she shouldn't have gotten a marriage certificate with Xiaozhi. That way, there will be a lot less entanglement, and there will be no need to carry anything inexplicable.

Xia Xue turned around and went back to the house, cleaned up the dinner plate and kitchen, and prepared to go out. She drove and went to the clubhouse first. I stayed there until about ten o'clock, counted the inventory, and called the supplier to ask them to replenish the supply.

At half past ten in the morning, Xia Xue drove to the café and told the store manager that she was going to live in the town for a while. The coffee shops and clubs in the city are temporarily entrusted to the store manager, if there is any trouble, just call Xia Xue.

The store manager stared at Xia Xue's slightly haggard face, and asked uneasily, did something happen?

Xia Xue shook her head and smiled. I didn't encounter anything, but there were some official tasks to deal with in the town, and it took a lot of time. I don't want to be so tired every day, going back and forth between the city and the town.

Okay, Sister Xia, don't worry, I'm here! The smart store manager, who was empathetic, didn't continue to ask.

Xia Xue nodded and said gratefully, thank you.

At this time, a fashionable woman wearing sunglasses approached the front desk. She looks very young and full of youthful atmosphere.

Is Xia Xue here? Strange woman, ask the store manager.

Xia Xue turned her head sideways and looked at the strange young woman. I'm Xia Xue, do you have anything to do with me?

The young woman turned around, looked at Xia Xue, and slowly took off her sunglasses. She bowed and saluted, hello, I'm Haruko.

Xia Xue looked at the beautiful girl in front of her in a daze, and felt that this girl's eyes were hidden with heavy scheming and wisdom. The wisdom and sophistication she exudes are completely beyond her actual age.

Xia Xue smiled and said, please come here! Reach out and point to the guest seat inside.

Haruko, bowed, said thank you, excused me. Follow Xia Xue and sit down at the innermost window position.

The store manager then brought two cups of steaming coffee, and said, please use it slowly. Soon, turn around and leave. She knew that this girl might have something special to talk to Xia Xue about.

Xia Xue crossed her hands and lay them flat on the table, looking at Haruko with a peaceful gaze.

Haruko was silent for a moment. Then, as if plucking up a lot of courage, he said. Please, can you give me Xue Zhi? I will make him happy, I really love him, I have loved him since I was a child.

Xia Xue looked at Haruko in amazement. Although she felt a little abrupt about her words, she secretly admired her courage. In the past, girls, even in the face of the person they liked, few dared to take the initiative to confess, let alone find the so-called love rival to theorize.

How do you know I'm here? Xia Xue asked. Didn't answer Haruko's question directly.

Haruko pursed her lips and said embarrassedly, I used to secretly follow Koji before. So, knowing that this coffee shop is your business. I used to be at the 1986 bar and saw you more than once, but you didn't notice me.

1986 Bar? Xia Xue wondered. I go to a lot with my friends, and the bar is famous.

Thank you for patronizing, I opened that bar. Haruko, bowing her head slightly, in respect. At the beginning, after my mother passed away, she entrusted me to my cousin Leng Zhong for adoption. That bar was actually run by my cousin, but few people knew the inside story. Later, my cousin settled abroad and transferred the bar to me.

Xia Xue nodded and praised, you are amazing.

Haruko paused for a long time, her face was slightly red, she looked at Xia Xue embarrassedly, and said. It's embarrassing to say that I just made such an impudent request to you. But if I don't come to see you today, I'm afraid I'll be unwilling for the rest of my life. Today, even if I am rejected by you, at least I will not leave regrets in my heart. However, my feelings for Xue Zhi will never be given up. I will silently follow him and wait for him for the rest of my life.

Xia Xue looked at Haruko's young and bright face, and there was no trace of disgust in her heart. She is a brave and determined girl, with an extraordinary and bumpy life experience, and suffered a lot of unknown hardships when she was a child. In the face of the strong man in life, even if he is his enemy, he will have praise and respect.

He does not belong to anyone, he is an independent and free individual. He has his own thoughts and judgments, and has the right to choose his own life. So, I don't have the right to give him to whomever I want. Nor has he ever wanted to deprive him of the right to choose another way of life. If he chooses you in the end, I won't stand in the way. Xia Xue looked at Haruko calmly and said calmly.

Well, I see. Love is an extremely selfish thing, please forgive me for my frivolity. Xiaoji said that he has known you since he was born. He also said that you are the most cherished person in his life. So, for the sake of Xiaoji, I am also willing to accept your existence. The relationship between us, which is not antagonistic, can become a special family affection. Because, we all love the same man.

After Haruko finished speaking, she bowed again and turned to leave.

Xia Xue stared blankly at Haruko's back, and a large blank appeared in her mind. Why, when you have love, someone will justifiably provoke you? At the beginning, it was Park Shiyi who openly took love. Today, another Qingzi came, openly declaring war on himself.
