Chapter 303: A Chance Encounter
Above the sea of clouds.
Duck duck looked out the window at the clouds, like mountain peaks undulating on the ground.
The sun is chasing the clouds, following all the way, shining the clouds on the snow-white, and those who don't know think they have crossed.
But Yaya didn't look at it at all, and kept immersed in the phone call just now.
After she finished sending a message to Qingning, she received a call from the woman, she said that she had been diagnosed with cancer, time was running out, and she wanted to let Duck Duck go back, Duck Duck didn't know how to answer at the time, said that she was going to board the plane, and then hung up the phone.
That woman was her mother.
Shortly after her father's death, the woman remarried.
The groom, whom she knew, was a colleague of her mother.
My father had a fight with the woman because of this colleague, saying that they would stop talking after work, and she said that they were just colleagues.
Scold!
What a colleague.
Then, when her uncle was abroad, Duck Duck came to join her uncle.
At that time, the woman didn't keep much.
After that, they never saw each other again.
Even when she returned to China, she lived in her grandmother's old house for a day or two, and then went north to find Qingning.
Of course, one year, she went to see the woman on a whim, wanted to see that woman had a bad life, and saw that the woman had tears in her eyes when she saw her, and wanted to see the woman holding her hand and said, I have been thinking about her for so many years, and I have always felt guilty-
She saw the woman from afar.
One of their mother and daughter is at the traffic light, and the other is at the traffic light, and the woman is old, but the maintenance is not bad. She looked at this side, her eyes lit up. For a moment, Duck Duck felt that the guilt and so on she wanted to see didn't matter, as long as the woman rushed over, grabbed her hand, and called her nickname Duck Duck, she would put everything down.
But neither.
The green light is on.
She stayed where she was, and the woman waved at the same place, and then a little girl crossed the traffic light, grabbed the woman's hand, and they turned away.
Nothing matters anymore.
"Duck duck."
Erin next to her saw that her face was not good, and asked with concern.
Erin is her partner.
She turned out to be an independent designer and had her own fashion brand, but no one cared about it, so she went to work as a designer in a luxury brand, and then she picked up her own fashion brand again. It just so happened that Uncle Duck Duck was an investor, and by chance, Duck Duck met Erin and then became her partner.
Li Qingning too.
Duck duck shook his head and signaled that it was okay.
She was playing a song in her headphones, Li Qingning's "Dear", this song was specially written for her.
Li Qingning is her best and best friend in the world.
They grew up together, and she wrote songs to comfort her and let her out of that haze.
In a sense, Qingning is more important to her than that woman, the most important person in this life.
But—
Late autumn night.
Li Qingning suddenly called, "Duck duck, I'm crazy."
Duck Duck is still half asleep and half awake, "If you are crazy, you will go to the doctor."
Li Qingning ignored her and continued, "I fell in love with a boy who was three years younger than me."
Duck Duck woke up and sat up from the bed: "Who?"
She thought it was a certain star, or a rich second generation.
Who knew that Li Qingning told her that he was a boy who was very special to her, but very ordinary to others.
As for the reason -
"Every time I see him, I want to crush him, put him in my mouth and eat it in one bite."
Li Qingning said with a smile.
Duckduck thinks she's really crazy, "You took him like a fish."
Since then, Li Qingning has begun to share with her the bits and pieces of her and the fish. said that he was simple and cute, and when he ate the seafood buffet, he didn't know how to eat it, and he was afraid of making a fool of himself
It's very cute, and so on. She also said that she and Jiang Yang drilled the grove, Li Qingning thought that this stupid boy had enlightened, but he used her as a shield, just curious about what the couples in the grove were doing.
And then—
Suddenly, one day, Li Qingning told her that she was getting married.
Duck Duck was not very happy at the time.
Because the person who is particularly important to him is snatched away by others, he has become her most important person from then on, and they will plan the future together, and the future will be without her. So reason told her that she should be happy that Qing Ning had found true love, but she couldn't help but be jealous of this man.
But—
When Li Qingning sent a photo of her and Jiang Yang, Yaya still smiled at her aunt.
Seeing her laugh, the jealousy was still there, but it faded.
The plane is about to land.
Duck Duck came back to his senses and took off his headphones.
She and Erin left the airport with their suitcases, and they were going to take a taxi, but Erin suddenly wanted to take the subway, "I heard that celebrities can often be met on the subway here."
Duck Duck thought it was such a coincidence, but they still took the subway.
There are quite a lot of people reading books on the subway.
The people next to them were holding a copy of "Murder on the Orient Express" and were reading, and then when they got on and off the bus, they saw several people reading this book, and Duck Duck didn't expect that this book was quite popular.
"Of course."
Erin said beside her.
This book is so British, although many people regret that it was not written by a British.
As she said this, Erin suddenly pointed to the end of the carriage, "Hey, look, you don't look like Poirot."
Duck Duck turned his head to look, it was really quite similar, about the same height, his head was like an egg, and he also had a straight and neat mustache on his upper lip, Duck Duck felt that it was deliberately left, otherwise I really couldn't imagine who would take care of such a funny beard, especially like the description in the book.
While the two were watching, the other saw them too.
Poirot smiled at them and nodded.
After seeing Duck Duck, he suddenly thought of something, got up and walked over to greet them, "Hello."
He speaks Mandarin.
Duck Duck was stunned, and then replied.
Poirot then sat down next to him and asked Duck if his Mandarin was standard.
Duck Duck said, "It's a little funny."
She corrected it.
Poirot learns along.
He told them that his name was Carl and that he was originally a stage actor, but he heard that "Murder on the Orient Express" was going to be filmed, and his figure and appearance were particularly suitable for the description in the book, so he wanted to audition for "Poirot".
Now it's time to go to the audition.
Because the actor's interview video and other related materials will eventually be sent to Jiang Yang, he tried to say hello in Mandarin.
It's a little more intimate.
Then, he asked Duck Duck, did he know that Poirot's new book was out?
Duck Duck shook his head.
She has been busy with work these days and knows very little about domestic news.
Carl chatted with them for a while, and he arrived.
Duck Duck said goodbye to him and wished him good luck.
They sat a few more stops, and after getting off the subway, they crossed a few streets to their residence.
After opening the door and entering, Erin was amazed and asked Duck Duck This is also Qingning's house?
Duck Duck agreed, saying that Li Qingning belonged to a cat and had a strong sense of territory.
After staying in a certain place for a long time, all I want is to buy a house to live in, and by the way, as an investment.
She's been here before and has a key in her hand.
Li Qingning also agreed to let them stay temporarily.
She still remembered the task given by Li Qingning, and after settling down, the two of them took a taxi to take a turn and take pictures.
