February 14th. Valentine’s Day.

The performance of the Hamamen Ballet at the World Ballet Festival is going well.

Jiang Luosheng and his dance partner completed the last movement of the pas de deux and froze firmly on the stage.

With the warm applause from the audience, the curtain was slowly closed. When she got off the stage, she and her dance partner exchanged two sentences while talking.

The dance partner is Italian/Dali, English is not good, Chinese is not enough, Jiang Luosheng does not know Yi/Dali, when the two of them rehearsed before, they often talked a few words without the donkey's lips to the horse's mouth, and then used sign language to make analogies.

They thanked each other and politely said goodnight.

In the dressing room, dancers chat while removing makeup.

"Luo Sheng," the administrative director shouted at the door, "your courier." ”

As soon as Jiang Luosheng turned his head, he saw the administrative director holding a large bouquet of roses and standing at the door of the dressing room, "Did your boyfriend give it to you?" ”

"Ouch!" Colleagues began to quip, "Boyfriends are so romantic." ”

Jiang Luosheng walked over and took the rose, "Thank you." ”

"Young people are romantic." The Director of Administration quipped.

Jiang Luosheng smiled.

The fiery red roses are in full bloom with a rich aroma. There is also a card hanging from the red ribbon.

Jiang Luosheng flipped over the card: Pay attention to safety. The show went well.

She scoffed. Sure enough, this dry blessing is Xiao Qi's style.

Colleagues rushed to the bar at the door for a drink and celebrated Valentine's Day together.

"I'm not going, I'm too sleepy." Jiang Luosheng shirked it.

But certainly not because of sleepiness.

She had other things to do.

Back in her hotel room, she found a drink bottle, put roses in it, and filled it with water.

For the rest of the week, there was a rose to accompany her for Xiao Qi.

She placed the roses on the coffee table, then sat down at her desk and opened her laptop.

Above is the solid information she checked.

and far-reaching.

Jiang Qingyuan has always avoided her like a plague. After she was eighteen years old, in order to escape that memory, she also avoided Jiang Qingyuan, not wanting to know where he was and what he was doing. Her deepest understanding of her brother stems from the sentence Jiang Yuan said when he showed off to his card friends, "My son went to a prestigious university, and his profession is to catch hackers."

At the same time, she is also deliberately alienating Xiao Qi.

Because of Xiao Qi's indifference, Knot really hurt her.

That day, in the face of her who was in a mess and collapsed on the bed crying heartbreakingly, Xiao Qi, who was the same age as her, stood in front of the bed and said nothing.

Jiang Luosheng couldn't see his expression in the hazy eyes of tears, and could only see a straight silhouette in front of him.

How long she cried, how long she yelled at Xiao Qi, how long did Xiao Qi stand silently. Even when she punched him and questioned him, he didn't respond.

No one knew what he was thinking.

When Jiang Luosheng was finally tired of crying, Xiao Qi picked her up and asked her to go to the bathroom to take a bath. At the same time, he knew that Jiang Yuan was unreliable, so he directly went online to find a psychological counselor for help.

Jiang Luosheng's psychological intervention was very timely, but in the days when he was still hospitalized, he wanted to end his life with a blade every night, and was entangled by moderate depression for many years.

During the whole process, Xiao Qi accompanied her, making the most correct actions at every juncture, except for not mentioning the events of the day, calm like an emotionless robot.

The indifference was so cold that eighteen-year-old Jiang Luosheng couldn't accept it.

After she was discharged from the hospital, none of them spoke about it again.

But that doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

For so many years, Jiang Luosheng has always felt that Xiao Qi helped her, took care of her, bought a house and asked her to live together, and share her living expenses because of sympathy, because of her feelings when she was young, and perhaps because of extremely weak guilt. In fact, she herself understands that how many seemingly coincidental things in the world, how many "if you can avoid anything", are actually just fate. Sooner or later, it would happen, and she had no reason to blame anyone.

But now it seems that Xiao Qi may have done a lot more than she imagined.

Yuanyang and Pangu are completely peer-to-peer competition in the industry.

When Pangu was first established, some people even ridiculed whether this company was specifically for Yuanyang.

When he was an undergraduate, Xiao Qi did not hesitate to choose the major of information security, founded Pangu with his mentor, followed Jiang Qingyuan's footsteps all the way, and attacked Jiang Qingyuan's career point-to-point.

Even that time when he mentioned it to her for no reason, it was about to destroy Yuanyang.

So did he do all this for her?

She didn't know anything, and even thought that on November 5th, Pangu and Yuanyang were talking about business, but they just happened to have a project together.

The name Jiang Qingyuan, and what happened that winter, had become an eternal taboo for them, and no one could mention it.

For her, the taboo cut through her heart like a knife. But she never thought about it, and said to Xiao Qi what this taboo was like.

He, like her, is a thin domino. When the card in front falls, the card that falls behind not only her, but also him.

Jiang Luosheng closed the webpage, closed the computer, leaned on the back of the chair and sighed.

Xiao Qi is not a person who can express himself, and sometimes he even chooses to avoid expressing it. After so many years, his indifference may also be tormented.

Jiang Luosheng dialed his phone.

Xiao Qi pressed reject and replied to the message: he was in a meeting. I'll call you in a moment.

Jiang Luosheng replied with a "yes".

The moment she pressed the send button, she prayed that no matter what Xiao Qi did for her, there would never be such an item as "killing Jiang Qingyuan".

She didn't want to lose him.

It was only at this moment that she suddenly realized that Xiao Qi was so important to her.

Xiao Qi said that if Jiang Qingyuan was killed by her, then he would help erase the evidence.

Now, she's the same.

Jiang Luosheng was bored while waiting for Xiao Qi's phone call while looking at the photo album of his mobile phone.

One by one, she slid forward to the photo of last Christmas.

In front of the tall Christmas tree, she and Xiao Qi held arms, their heads next to each other.

Xiao Qi didn't smile, but she smiled like a flower.

Looking at the photo, she suddenly had a sour nose.

If she could go back to that day, she would definitely smile more really, more sincerely.

Instead of wearing a mask of hypocrisy day and night, just to scrape the benefits you need from him.

When Jiang Luosheng took a shower and went to bed, Xiao Qi made a video call.

Jiang Luosheng picked it up and watched him walk towards the office.

It was a road she was familiar with.

The most memorable moment was the day she put his badge back under the carpet in front of his office.

She even released his pigeons.

Her eyelashes twitched slightly.

Xiao Qi looked at her like this and frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Luosheng told him bluntly, "I miss you a little." ”

Xiao Qi said softly: "The flower has been received? ”

"Roger." Jiang Luosheng showed him the flowers, and then asked him, "What about my gift?" Did you receive it? ”

"Roger." Xiao Qi opened the office door and turned the camera around.

The big rabbit doll sat on Xiao Qi's office chair.

Jiang Luosheng sneered, "It's so cute." ”

Xiao Qi turned the camera back, "It's taking up my place." ”

"Hmm. I sent it to spy on you. Jiang Luosheng said domineeringly, "Let's see if you have eaten well, rested well, and hooked up with other little girls." ”

Xiao got up and sat down in his office chair and placed the rabbit doll on the chair opposite, "Obey." ”

Jiang Luosheng looked at the familiar handsome eyebrows on the screen.

"I found someone to interrogate Huang Qian," Xiao Qi told her, "to do it tonight." ”

Jiang Luosheng's heart tightened, "Will it be dangerous?" ”

She didn't want Xiao Qi to take unnecessary risks and deal with unnecessary people.

"It's fine."

"Xiao Qi, forget it." Jiang Luosheng shook his head, "Don't ask." ”

Xiao Qi was stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

"My own secrets, I always have to bear." Jiang Luosheng said gently, "It doesn't matter who wants the police to investigate me. As long as you're safe. ”

Xiao Qi looked at her, unable to tell whether she was sincere or acting on the spot.

She is so good that half of her concern can be rendered ten by her.

"Not dangerous." He replied.

"Don't ask." Jiang Luosheng immediately stopped, "Really." Don't ask. I don't want you to risk it. ”

Xiao Qi looked at the worry in her eyes.

After a while, he replied, "Yes." ”

Jiang Luosheng was relieved.

Xiao Qi's heart softened, "Little girl, happy Valentine's Day." ”

"Happy Valentine's Day." Jiang Luosheng smiled brightly.

"When to go to bed?"

"I want to sleep now." Jiang Luosheng begged him softly, "Shall we sleep with the microphone?" I don't want to be alone. ”

Xiao Qi smiled softly, "Okay." ”

Jiang Luosheng put on his headphones and closed his eyes.

This is the most childish thing she has ever done in her life: sleeping with a microphone.

She wasn't sure if Xiao Qi was the same. The dignified technical director would agree to such a naïve request.

Are women so eager for their boyfriends' company?

Is this how men coax girlfriends?

She had never seen love, and she didn't know what love should look like.

She wasn't pampered and didn't know what it was like to be pampered.

What she knew was that in all the difficult moments, Xiao Qi never left her alone.

The slight movement in the headphones made her feel that she was not alone. There was a man there, tapping on the keyboard, drinking from a cup, and moving a chair around the office.

She soon fell asleep and slept until dawn.
