I saw her.
My first woman, Georgie, whom I met in Sioux City.
Her back, her temperament, and even her gestures. Although it was only a glimpse of the intersection in the evening, I instantly recognized her identity.
The woman who passed by just now must be Qiao Qi.
I followed softly, trying to see why Georgie was here near night. I haven't been in touch for a long time, but I still want to see her.
Since she and her sister left Sioux City, we haven't been in touch with each other, not even a simple greeting or a kind greeting.
I didn't dare to contact Georgie because I was afraid of affecting her pursuit of her dreams. And Qiao Qi didn't contact me, but I can't say why.
I don't want to guess anything, because I know it's easy to misunderstand, but there are always times in the dead of night, when I close my eyes, and the image of Qiao Qi faintly appears in my heart......
I didn't let myself get caught up in the memories because it was most likely right in front of me for Georgie.
I followed her to the side road, and the evening in Shanghai was still full of traffic, and a road that was not wide was full of people.
With her back in front of her, she seemed to be weak and swayed a little when she walked.
After a distance of more than ten meters, I vaguely saw a lot of mud on her white backpack, which surprised me, because Georgie is a very clean person, and she doesn't even allow dirty marks on her shoes.
When I saw this scene, I felt a faint pain in my heart: Could it be that Qiao Qi encountered something that made her downcast? But didn't her sister Qiao Yu find a good job in Shanghai and get a good development? Coupled with their continued presence in Sioux City, she shouldn't be living in such a mess, right?
Thinking of this, I am even more determined to follow up. I hurried after her, and followed her into another alley.
This alley is very deserted, and the sun has set, and the alley has become dark and deep at this time.
From time to time, one or two old men came out of the old, low house, and glanced at Qiao Qi in front and me in the back, but did not speak.
Qiao Qi entered the alley, and seemed to be walking faster and faster because of her lack of security.
In front of the alley is a bustling neighborhood, and once Qiao Qi walks out of this alley, then in the crowded downtown area, I am likely to lose it.
Thinking of this, I mustered up my courage and strode forward, shouting in a deep voice as I ran: "Qiaoqi! โ
Hearing my shout, Qiao Qi, who was walking in front, was stunned.
She stopped where she was, then jerked back, shuddering slightly, and nearly fell to the ground......
I saw her face, haggard, pale.
Qiao Qi is still the same Qiao Qi, even if she doesn't wear makeup, even if she is haggard, but when she looks back, she still has a look that is overwhelming.
But I could tell that Qiao Qi must have been in considerable pain and stress these days, and when she saw me, she almost collapsed.
I hurriedly chased after him and hugged Qiaoqi's shoulders tightly. At this time, I found that her clothes were very old, and they had even been washed off. The backpack was the same one that had been in Sioux City before, and it was quite sloppy, with dirt and scratches all over the backpack......
Qiao Qi had a faint smell of soap, but there was no longer the smell of those elegant perfumes before. This made me realize that Qiaoqi's current life situation is very bad, especially bad.
"Little Joe, you...... I ......, "I don't know what to say, I want to ask her how she is doing, but I know that her current situation must be a nightmare."
Qiao Qi glanced up at me, suddenly hugged me, and cried heartbreakingly: "Yang Ye! Yang Ye! I can still see you! โ
I only felt that her crying tore my heart apart, I felt the same way, hugged Xiao Qiao hard, didn't say anything, just let her cry first......
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Qiao finally calmed down. I helped her to sit down on the side of the road, and finally began to ask her tentatively about how she was doing.
Qiao Qi sobbed under her breath, saying that she regretted that she had abandoned me and given up such a precious relationship, and she said that she and her sister came to Shanghai, and it was a mistake from beginning to end, a big mistake.
I asked Qiao Qi, where is Qiao Yu now? What about her?
Georgie just sighed softly, stood up and asked me if I wanted to go to her house.
Of course I didn't refuse, I really wanted to know why Qiao Qi and Qiao Yu, these two people who were praised as immortals in Sioux City, became the current fate after arriving in Shanghai.
Although I had heard King Wu say before that everyone has their own destiny, and everyone's fate in each city is different, I didn't think about why a pair of famous beauties have become so embarrassed now.
Georgie walked quietly ahead of me, as if deliberately avoiding me, and slowly but calmly led me to the place where she now lived.
It's a more run-down residential area than where we live, and Georgie lives in a semi-basement.
Cramped and gloomy corridors, musty corridors, buttery yellow door panels...... When Georgie opened the door, I could even see what appeared to be a cockroach moving in the far corner.
"Little Joe, do you live here?" I asked in a low voice, my heart full of distress.
Georgie nodded slightly, opened the door, and walked in with me.
In a space of about 40 square meters, there is only a simple folding table except for a single bed.
Little Joe has arranged this space very clean and simple, although there is never sunlight in the semi-basement, but I feel quite comfortable after entering the door.
Qiao Qi helped me move a bench and sat on the bed. And at this time, I suddenly realized a problem: Xiao Qiao's sister, Qiao Yu does not live here, this is a single bed.
"Little Joe, where is your sister?" I asked.
Qiao Qi sighed and finally began to tell the story of how she and her sister had come to Shanghai......
I guessed correctly before, the reason why Qiao Yu was determined to come to Shanghai was indeed because of Chen Qingyi's help. Chen Qingyi has long heard of Er Qiao's name, so he has always coveted the appearance of these two beauties.
But after all, he is a veteran of the rivers and lakes, with dirty thoughts, but the kung fu he has done on the surface is very good, he makes Qiao Yu mistakenly think that he just appreciates Qiao Yu's talent, he is a Bole, and wants Qiao Yu to play his own expertise in hosting. And Qiao Yu was not able to fight this old fox after all, and took his sister on the thief ship.
When Er Qiao arrived in Shanghai, he was basically helpless. Chen Qingyi took the opportunity to be attentive and soon helped Qiao Yu find a good job.
Qiao Yu is making steady progress in her career, and she is naturally grateful to Chen Qingyi for her kindness. In addition, Chen Qingyi himself is very attractive, and the relationship between the two has become closer and closer, and even Qiao Yu has a love for Chen Qingyi, which is also inevitable.
At this time, Chen Qingyi, who was dissatisfied, began a new challenge after conquering Qiao Yu's heart. He gradually wanted to attack Qiao Qi, and wanted to possess both sisters at the same time.
Qiao Yu was in the dark, and she was too busy at work, so she didn't notice this. However, Qiao Qi was keenly aware of it, and sternly rejected Chen Qingyi's pursuit.
Qiao Qi told her sister about this, and at first Qiao Yu didn't believe that Chen Qingyi was such a shameless person, but in the third, Qiao Yu also had doubts.
Chen Qingyi saw that the matter was revealed, and he was annoyed and angry, so he bit back, saying that Qiao Qi seduced him first, and wanted to take the opportunity to take the position and snatch Qiao Yu's job that was now gradually on the right track.
Because of a man, the two sisters turned against each other from then on. Under the influence of love and career, Qiao Yu finally began to doubt his own sister.
Qiao Yu was heartbroken, so she resolutely left her sister and Chen Qingyi, moved out with her only belongings, and rented such a remote house here, self-reliant, and self-reliant.
Speaking of this, Qiao Qi sighed, and her tears broke down again.
Of course, I didn't expect that Qiao Qi, who was originally pursuing her dream, would encounter such a painful thing in Shanghai, and even her own sister would turn against her.
Seeing Qiao Qi burst into tears, I gently stretched out my hand to hug this stubborn girl and asked her in a low voice, "Why didn't you go back to Sioux City to find me in the first place?" โ
Qiao Qi said in a low voice: "I have already failed you, what face do I have to trouble you again?" โ
