Chapter 1: Back in Time
"You actually cheated behind my back!" I shouted hysterically.
"Can you calm down! Things are not what you think, can you listen to me? Li Yunling grabbed my shoulders and shook them.
"Enough is enough, I don't want to hear it!" I shook Li Yunling away and held the phone in front of him, "Then what do you say is going on with this photo of you kissing with someone else in a bar!" ”
Li Yunling's expression suddenly darkened: "Who sent it to you?" How do you have this picture? ”
"I don't know who it is, does it matter? Don't change the subject, just say what's going on! ”
"If you don't listen to me explain what I can do, why don't you listen to me, who sent it to you!" Li Yunling yelled at me.
Smack-
I slapped Li Yunling hard, turned my head angrily and left, and rushed out of the house.
I wiped the tears from my face, it was my 30th birthday. I actually received a text message with a photo of my husband kissing at a bar with a hotly dressed beauty. I don't know who sent it to me, but this ill-intentioned text message did disrupt my happy and peaceful life. When I saw that photo, I felt five thunderbolts, and this year-long marriage was smashed into a crack because of this photo. I sat in the corridor and shed tears, but Li Yunling didn't go out to catch up and explain.
"Dudu Dudu ....." The mobile phone rang, it must be Li Yunling's phone, I was angry, I simply didn't look at the screen, and let it ring. The long and troublesome ringing is finally over, I was breathing a sigh of relief, but I didn't expect it to ring again, it was so annoying, I picked it up, and the voice revealed anger: "What the hell are you going to do, don't call again!" ”
The voice on the other side was more embarrassed: "Eh, you are Miss Yuan, I am a courier, you have flowers here that you need to sign for." Your family lives on the 12th floor, right? ”
Yes... It turned out to be a courier, and my tone must have scared others just now, so I hurriedly adjusted it and lowered my tone to calm: "Yes, you don't have to come up, I just went out, you just wait for me downstairs, I'll come down and get it myself." "I hung up the phone and waited to take the elevator downstairs.
Since college, the flowers for my birthday every year have been given by Qin Shen.
But what makes people worry is that since many years ago, Qin Shen and I have cut off contact.
Qin Shen chose to go abroad after graduating from university, and we had occasional contact at first, but then he never replied to my news, and we gradually broke off contact, but every year on his birthday, he would receive a starry sky from his flower shop in Asaksu.
He didn't come to my wedding either, and on my wedding day, a lot of high school and college classmates came, and everyone talked about him during the greetings, and no one knew about him. But on the day of my wedding, I received a sky full of stars. I sent him a message saying thank you, but he still hasn't replied. Maybe it's inconvenient to use WeChat in the United States, maybe he has already changed his contact information, or maybe he has already got married and started a family...?
I turned on my phone and brought up the chat interface with Qin Shen. There was only one page of my dialog box, which seemed a little awkward. The most recent piece of information is:
2027.5.27
"Today is my wedding, although you didn't come, but thank you for the flowers"
Further down:
2027.4.02
"I'm getting married soon, with Li Yunling. Will you come to our wedding? ”
2026.5.27
"Thank you"
2025.5.27
"Thank you"
2024.5.27
"Thank you"
......
What's the matter, since he has cut off contact with me, why does he still send me flowers every year?
By the time I came to my senses, the elevator had reached the first floor.
The courier boy ran over to me panting, and gave me a large bunch of light blue stars, this time with a card in the flowers.
I thought it was a birthday card, but when I opened it, it said:
"Hello Miss Yuan, because the store has been closed, you will not be able to deliver flowers to you on your birthday every year in the future, I originally wanted to find Mr. Qin to refund the fee, but I have not been able to get through Mr. Qin's mobile phone before, I can only call his mother's phone, but I regret to learn that Mr. Qin has passed away, this year is the last time to send you flowers, I apologize here. I have been witnessing Mr. Qin's love for you for many years, and I hope you can be happy in your future life. ”
Flowers and cards fell from my hands and smashed to the ground.
I trembled with grief, this... It couldn't be, how could he, suddenly disappear.
It may be that the stars that appear on time every year make me completely unprepared, I want to cry and scream, but in the face of great grief, I have lost the ability to be excited, and at that moment I was like a walking corpse, without any strength to be hysterical. My heart felt like it had been torn open, and it was bubbling with blood. I was crazy to see him, wondering what had happened to him after so many missed years, and how he had passed away.
I had no choice but to go to his house and ask about the situation. But after all these years, who knows if his family still lives there.
Still holding on to a glimmer of hope, I got on the 56 bus.
When I got in the car, I habitually put on headphones, and the first song was Chen Baiqiang's, I just like you. I remember that when I was 17 years old, Qin Shen recommended it to me, and at that time I laughed at him for how he could listen to such an old song.
"Why do I think about the past every second?
Why don't you remember at all?
Love has been lost, love has been lost
But why do I like you?
.......”
In the bump of the bus, I closed my eyes, and my emotions finally relaxed, and it was only then that I clearly felt the endless pain. Indulging in the vicissitudes of the song, my self-protection mechanism finally collapsed, and tears fell down my cheeks like a broken embankment, and hit the ground hard. I started whimpering breathlessly.
Memories poured up, I closed my eyes, the bus was moving fast, and the wind was blowing next to me, as if I had passed through the century.
Suddenly, there was a clang, a screeching brake sound that shattered my eardrums, and with the tremendous inertia and impact, I was thrown out and smashed into the seat in front of me. The sound of people screaming and shouting came and went, accompanied by the sound of metal scraping and tearing. I was dizzy, and I liked that your singing voice was distant and blurred....... In the endless darkness, I don't know where I am or how long it has been.
"Hey... Is this song good, what is your reaction, are you asleep? ”
A familiar voice rang out, waking me up from the chaos.
I slowly opened my eyes, and what appeared in front of me was not someone else, but Qin Shen, who I hadn't seen for many years!
Mixed with joy and sorrow, I not only made any doubts, but impulsively pounced on him, and hugged him tightly, as if to imprison him in my arms, for fear that as soon as I let go of him, he would disappear.
I cried loudly: "Qin Shen, I miss you so much, you are really miserable, how could you suddenly die woo..."
"You? ... Is there something wrong with you! ... What do I rely on you to do, let go! "Qin Shen wanted to break free, originally he had more strength than me, but I used my strength to hug him, and he didn't tear me away at all.
"Hey, look, what are you doing, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai? Hahaha, look at Yuan Wenqian, are you doing something to Qin Shen? The boys sitting in the back all stood up to watch the play and shouted loudly.
Hey, what's going on? Aren't these all my high school classmates, although I can't remember a few names. Well? That's not right. I suddenly reacted, why do they still look so young? And how could Qin Shen appear, how could he still look like a teenager. I think I was in a car accident before, shouldn't I be in the hospital now?
While I was thinking in a panic, Qin Shen had already pushed me aside fiercely.
"You're sick!"
He scolded me and immediately turned his face to the side, and at that moment I could clearly see that his ears were as red as apples.
He jumped out of his seat as if his butt was on fire, gesturing his fist at the boy behind him.
"If you coax Lao Tzu again, I'll beat you to death, shut up for me!"
"I'm laughing to death! Did you hear what Yuan Wenqian said, haha..."
He staggered and rushed to the back, playing with the laughing boys.
The squad leader stood up and scolded loudly: "Qin Shen, don't move, this is on the bus!" Why are you not following the record again? ”
"Oh my God, Yuan Wenqian hugged Qin Shen just now!"
"Shameless, why is she so disgusting..."
The girl sitting next to me was talking about me at a volume that I could just hear.
I was amazed, how could there be so many people on the bus at once? And they're all high school classmates?
I calmed down a bit, this situation is not difficult for me to be smart, I already understand.
I stood up coldly, turned around and staggered over, pulling Qin Shen away from the pile of boys twisted in the back, and the two of us stood in the narrow aisle and confronted each other.
The cynicism around them became louder and louder, and all the people looked like they didn't think it was a big deal, and they were all coaxing. The loud noise was about to tip the bus over
"Shut up! You bunch of high school students! I roared. My overly vicious and serious tone scared everyone out of nowhere, and suddenly the car was very quiet.
"You're going to disappear soon, anyway."
"Qin Shen, listen to me. I know it's all a dream, so to make a long story short, I don't know if I'll ever see you in a dream, but you know, I really liked you. I've been missing you since you went abroad, and I've been waiting for you to come back, but then it stopped, and I can't wait any longer, and I finally said a lot of things I didn't say now, you must remember. ”
After saying that, I fell into Qin Shen's arms, and this time, he didn't push me away.
He enveloped me with the scent of plants in the fresh ocean, and I could feel his heartbeat growing fiercely.
I slowly closed my eyes.
This dream is so real that our story can finally have an ending. This is the last goodbye, the last encounter, and I just want to hold him tightly.
The classmates in the car poked their heads forward, watching the pair's performance with different expressions, and their mouths opened into an O-shape. They were all stunned, dumbfounded.
Qin Shen stared at me blankly for a long time, and then touched my head by a ghost, and then slowly pressed me into his arms.
The air was unusually quiet.
Hey? What's going on, I've been holding it for so long, and this dream isn't over yet?
The "beep-beep-" whistle was particularly harsh.
"It's time to get off the train?" The driver of the bus looked at us with a malicious smile, "You students, you don't know what to say about you, how old you are, and you do something every day." ”
What, what, arrived? This dream is too long, isn't it, this is a touching finale, and the dog's tail continues to mink?
The students gradually came back to their senses, and while pushing and shoving to get off the bus, they began a new round of stronger laughter.
"Yuan Wenqian is crazy, hahaha!"
"Do any of you have a mobile phone to take a picture of this wonderful scene, I'm going to upload it on the Internet"
"China Opera Academy can directly admit Yuan Wenqian"
"What a ferocious pervert! It's so bold that Qin Shen dares to touch it. ”
In a noisy voice, Qin Shen and I let go of each other.
I followed everyone out of the car, and Qin Shen followed.
Xiao Qiqi was waiting for me under the car. As soon as I got out of the car, she shook my shoulder vigorously: "Wen Qian, what are you doing, do you know what you did just now?" ”
"Kiki, why are you here" I suddenly realized that all this was too real, the bloated and loose school uniform, the dazzling summer sun couldn't open the eyes, everything in this dream was so clear. When hugging Qin Shen, I could even feel his heartbeat and his breathing.
"Kiki, hit me quickly, I can't do it myself, let me wake up." I begged.
Smack-
A crisp slap in my face.
