Liu Jingyun sat by the window and looked at the counter. Gu took pains to help a little girl choose a cake. Children can't make up their minds to choose and change. Gu Xiang was busy for a long time, still smiling. Patience is really good. When Gu Xiang sent the little guest away, the tea on the table was already cold. I'm sorry that Gu Xiang came over. When we are busy downstairs, we are always caught as able-bodied men. But Jacob is my friend, and we can taste new cakes for free. Liu Jingyun smiled. You are too busy. I'm the one who bothered you. Gu Xiang added some hot water to the fruit tea before sitting down. Liu Jingyun clutched the teacup with his fingers and said that Sun Dongping was ill in hospital. I don't think you know, do you? Gu Xiang really didn't know that she was surprised. What happened? Severe gastric ulcer was operated on. But it's okay now. I live in a hospital and raise it. Liu Jingyun cut her hair at the sideburns, so I don't think Sister Xu Yang told you, so I'll tell you. Don't mind my meddling No, no, Gu Xiang repeatedly said thank you. I should have gone to see him. Liu Jingyun gave a quick laugh and said, I have already broken up with him. Gu Xiang lifted the cup to his lips and stopped. Liu Jingyun said: He has always had you in his heart. I can't compare with his memories, so I have to give up. Gu Xiang put down his teacup and sneered, he always thinks of me when he is with you. With you, I won't forget you. If you know everything, why don't I? Liu Jing cloud and her eyes smiled clearly. Everyone has a proud soul. Gu Xiang's arrogance made her resolutely walk into the prison and vowed never to look back at Sun Dongping and cry. Then Liu Jingyun's arrogance is to bravely accept his failure and have a good time. They are all very good girls, and they have the courage to love and are deeply loved. It's just that there is no constant love in this world, so expectations are empty in the end. But pride can make them walk with their heads held high. Someone may be waiting for them at the next stop. So what are your plans in the future? Gu Xiang asked. Liu Jingyun said: My dad knew that I broke up with Sun Dongping on my own initiative and wouldn't let me go home. I was so angry. But I am not as weak as I was ten years ago, and I can go my own way. A university in Nanjing plans to accept me as a teacher, and I also plan to study my favorite major. Leave Shanghai? The city is too big and bustling to adapt. Liu Jingyun raised her eyebrows. What about you? Stay. Stay. Gu Xiang said, I don't want to live a bumpy life again. Liu Jingyun's eyes glanced at a place behind Gu Xiang. It is time to settle down and get married. What? Gu Xiang didn't understand. Liu Jingyun shook his head. Gu Xiang couldn't help saying: There is a question I've always wanted to ask. It may be a little abrupt, but won't you regret leaving like this? Liu Jingyun side head wanted to think, maybe later. But so what? People live in the present. It's like sometimes I think, if I do it again, I'll still help Sun Dongping in that alley. Gu Xiang has some admiration and no regrets. Liu Jingyun smiled and said goodbye. I'm going to Nanjing by bus this afternoon. Take care of yourself throughout the journey. Gu Xiang stood up to see her off. You can come to Nanjing to see me when you are free. Liu Jingyun said civilly. Two people talking softly out of the tea restaurant. Gu Xiang also helped Liu Jingyun stop a taxi. Liu Jing Claude shook her hand and said goodbye. Gu Xiang probably won't go to Nanjing to meet Liu Jingyun and Liu Jingyun, and he won't contact Gu Xiang again. They can't be friends anymore, even though they laughed. Everyone feels a little sorry, but they also know that no one can cross the railing in their hearts. Gu Xiang watched the taxi drive away. Someone walked behind and stood silently. In retrospect, Gu Xiang has always been such a neat and decisive person, never dragging his feet. Zhang Qirui looked at the endless traffic on the road and said softly that she was too wronged this time. I think she'll be fine. Gu Xiang said that she has always been much better than me. Nanjing is really better than Shanghai for her. Did you hear everything just now? Gu Xiang asked slyly. Zhang Qirui smiled sweetly. I'm just passing by, really. Gu Xiang has a feeling that you care about her. I care about you too. Zhang Qirui said, and then turned to leave. Ricky Gu Xiang opened his mouth and called him. Her eyes are clear and shallow, and she wants to know why you are so kind to me. Zhang Qirui thought for a moment and replied, Because I can't see you getting worse. On the day Sun Dongping took out stitches, Gu Xiang didn't go to the hospital to see him. Sun Dongping is so thin that he takes off his hospital gown and wears it empty. He just cut his hair short, because he was sick and didn't bother to wash his hair. When Gu Xiang saw him, he felt that he was not just an ordinary operation, but a vegetable who just woke up. It is false to say that it is not uncomfortable. How did this happen? Gu Xiang put down the fruit in his hand. Fortunately, Idy is not here, otherwise she might not be able to enter the ward. Sun Dongping lay for half a month, feeling that he was going to grow mushrooms. At this time, he is seizing the opportunity to bask in the sun by the window and do simple gymnastics. Stomach trouble is old. I've had it before. Since when do you like drinking so much? Gu Xiang freely asked 1. Sun Dongping no longer hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not. I always feel that saying those words is suspected of gaining sympathy. Besides, it was better for him to be down and out then than for Gu Xiang to go to jail. In fact, he can guess without telling Gu Xiang. She knows Sun Dongping and knows that he has a sentimental side. It is also common sense to drown one's sorrows by drinking, because there is nothing to drink in hospital with stomach trouble. Gu Xiang lamented that your body is your own, so you should cherish it. I understand Sun Dongping's bitter experience this time. Bitter oneself also drag others down. My sister runs from both sides of the company hospital these days, and it is too difficult to hide it from my parents. I always feel that the responsibility of the company is too heavy to share with her. Now I understand that she doesn't really like doing it in the company. She's just worried that I have to help me. Do you understand now? Be sensible. Sun Dongping nodded heavily. In fact, her delay in getting married is all because of me. If I can't stand it alone, she can't get married and have children. But I still gave her trouble. He's coming. Gu Xiang looked at his sallow face and felt very uncomfortable. Liu Jingyun is gone. He saw me before he left. Gu Xiang told him. What did you talk about? Sun Dongping is curious. Did you scold me together? Yes Gu Xiang sneered, if we were cruel, you would have been dismembered and sunk at the bottom of Huangpu River. We are so miserable because of you. Sun Dongping slowly sat down on the sofa. He turned his back to Hunan and couldn't see the expression on his face. But I think it should be guilt and depression. So you're all leaving me. Sun Dongping whispered. Gu Xiang felt that his heart had been pulled, but what could he say? Three people can't be a play on the emotional stage. One quit, two quit, and this scene will never be sung again. But if there was a better choice, who would have come this far? Sun Dongping asked: Will we meet again? Gu Xiang said: Probably. For example, I won't refuse to invite you for your birthday. Not afraid of embarrassment? We are all adults. How can we not even be rational? In another eight years, you will be paunchy. I am a yellow-faced woman. I can't see anything. Both of them laughed. Sun Dongping asked again: Gu Xiang, if it hadn't happened, if we passed the college entrance examination and graduated together, would we still be together? Gu Xiang wanted to think. Maybe when you meet a more attractive girl in college, you turn around and dump me. Or maybe we enter the society, our values change, and finally go our separate ways. Who knows? Every hypothesis has countless possibilities. Dongping, we were both obsessed. Isn't it because that emotional relationship just ended at the best moment? Sun Dongping's eyes are bent. Yes, it's really beautiful. I remember it all my life. Gu Xiang stared at him gently and said, I love you Dongping. I still love you eight years ago. Sun Dongping also replied softly: I loved you eight years ago. There seems to be a time and space when two people wake up from a big dream and find that eight years have passed and love is on the other side of the fault. Gu Xiang squatted in front of Sun Dongping and stretched out his hand and hugged him. Sun Dongping put her in her arms, put her chin on her head and enjoyed the beautiful fragrance in her hair. The two of them hugged each other as if they had never been apart. After leaving the hospital, Gu Xiang didn't rush back to the hotel. She decided to skip the night shift and have a good look at the city where she stayed for more than half a year. Night falls slowly, and the tall buildings on both sides of the river light up with thick makeup in the night. Shanghai is still very cold in early spring, and the cold wind blows hard on the river. Visitors who come to see the night scene shrink their necks and press the shutter, as if to slow down and the beautiful scenery will slip away. There are advertisements for games on the high building, and the changing neon lights dye the river rainbow. Gorgeous tourist boats have sailed from the river to the more open and distant water. A girl next to her asked her boyfriend, If I put a bottle here with a note in it, where do you think it will float? The boy said foolishly that he would probably get stuck in the sand. Gu Xiang didn't resist sloped a loud laugh. Fortunately, the wind was too strong for the young couple to hear. Gu Xiang remembers that when she first came to Shanghai more than half a year ago, she was brought into this bustling world by Zhang Qirui, and her hair was unkempt like a headless fly. She knew that her life would change, though she didn't know what it would be like. At that time, she kept thinking about her lost love. What if I met Sun Dongping in the street? Silent tears or excited hugs? At that time, her mind was not as open as it is now, her eyes were not as bright as they are now, and her hopes did not fly so far. She is timid, self-abased, narcissistic and arrogant. She is eager to prove that she is like a young man who has just left school and entered the society. Half a year is really short, until all the stories happened yesterday. Eight years is actually just a moment. Turn her off and you can go back in time. Grandma cooked fish soup until she came home from school. Sun Dongping helped her line up at the bus stop with her schoolbag on her back. It's a long way home, but he doesn't spend much time with her. Every kiss is still burning in your lips, and every sweet word is still ringing in your ears. When she opened her eyes, the wind took them all away. The city lights quickly lit up the sky, and there were clouds dyed red by the lights in the sky. Gu Xiang has been looking up. I've been hallucinating for a long time and feel like I'm floating in the clouds. Leaving the river, Gu Xiang chose a direction at random and went on. She walks slowly and sometimes stops to look at the scenery and passers-by. The city is so big that she just came to have a good look today. There are ancient buildings in reinforced high-rise buildings. Generations of people live in this old house, and their own joys and sorrows are staged with the prosperity of this city. It was late at night and she was tired from walking. The small shop that opened all night ordered a cup of hot tea, sat by the window and looked at the busy streets and well-dressed men and women coming home from the bar. Business in the store is slow, and the clerk doesn't bother when she is sleepy. She probably just thinks she is homeless. Gu Xiang is not sleepy at all. The heating at her feet is comfortable. Her mind is rapidly recalling the past, from meeting to falling in love, from separation to ending. Then she is going to pack all this into a package and throw it into the sundry folder like a computer file. I don't know when to browse next time. In love again? Get married? Or the birth of a child? Fate is moving relentlessly along the track, and she has to work hard to keep up. She really has no spare time to miss the past. Gu Xiang just sits there, sometimes taking a nap with his eyes closed, and sometimes flipping through free magazines. Hot tea can be refilled She took advantage of this small shop. The city finally fell asleep and woke up. It began to dawn, and there were more cars on the road. When the employees in the store began to change shifts, Gu Xiang stood up and stamped her legs, which had been a little numb all night, and left. On the roadside, an old woman came out early to sell breakfast. Her white hair trembled in the cold wind. Gu Xiang bought milk and zongzi and didn't ask the old man for the twenty dollars. She walked to the hotel with breakfast. She is more familiar with this road than Zhang Qirui, so she is not worried about not finding the way home. When I arrived at the hotel, it was already brightly lit, and the shops along the way were not open yet, but there were already white-collar workers on the way to work. Gu Xiang wiped her cold face and walked into the hotel. It is still early. The lobby is still quiet. There is a man sitting on the sofa in the small coffee stand on the left. He stood up when he saw Gu Xiang. Jun Qing's face now has a green shadow. The neatly tailored suit is a little wrinkled, and the shirt collar is loose and tired. Sun Dongping called me. Zhang Qirui said that he said that you always suppress your emotions, so you are a little worried about you. Gu Xiang walked towards him with light steps, as if afraid to wake up a dream. You waited for me all night? You don't have your cell phone. I was also wondering if I should call the police if you returned it this morning. Gu Xiang smiled. I just went out for a walk. I know Sun Dongping told me everything. Zhang Qirui nodded. Are you okay? Gu Xiang put his hand on his chest and said, just a little sad. Zhang Qirui said nothing this time. He opened his hand and held Gu Xiang tightly in his arms.
