Qingdai hugged her knees with her hands and sat under the tangled old tree. She looked at the chirping round-faced girl next to her with a look of helplessness on her face.
One day ago, the company organized a team building event to watch the meteor shower at Qishan. In the original plot, it was here that He Shaozhou met Xia Ruxi, the daughter of the Xia Group.
Xia Ruxi fell in love with He Shaozhou at first sight, and then she stalked him, using her family power to force He Shaozhou to marry her. But He Shaozhou had a tough attitude and never let go. After Qingdai returned to China, she still felt sad for a while because of Xia Ruxi's existence.
In order to nip this bad relationship in the cradle, Qingdai came to pray for the mountain, but the actor himself, He Shaozhou, did not come!
She seriously suspected that He Shaozhou was avoiding her on purpose.
What's more important is that the round-faced girl whom I grabbed on the plank road turned out to be Xia Ruxi.
Xia Ruxi held her head in her hands and said with starry eyes: "Sister, you are a lawyer, you are so awesome. Are you from City C?"
Maozi was stunned.
It seems like, seemingly, the host has taken away the male protagonist's role.
Qingdai lowered her eyebrows and smiled: "I am studying abroad and have just returned to China."
Xia Ruxi said oh, changed her tone and asked again, Qingdai said softly: "Miss Xia, are you here to see the meteor shower too?"
Xia Ruxi pouted: "I came here because I heard you can make wishes."
The sky was getting dark, and the moonlight gathered a veil on the sky. Qingdai listened quietly, and the hazy bright color reflected on Qingdai's raised little face.
Xia Ruxi asked with great interest: "What is your sister's wish?"
The sadness in Qingdai's eyes flashed away, and she smiled again: "I like someone."
"My wish is for him."
Xia Ruxi was stunned for a moment.
Strong and sad love is like the vast deep sea. Bottomless and silent.
Xia Ruxi's chest beat violently, and she stared at Qingdai for a long time without making a sound.
Qingdai herself calmed down the atmosphere, "The shooting star should be coming soon." She winked at Xia Ruxi and said, "Make a wish."
Xia Ruxi came to her senses and secretly made up her mind that she would protect her sister's love!
Mao Zi looked at Xia Ruxi's slumped face and twitched her lips: It's really humiliating to let you enter the pure love system and only conquer the male protagonist.
A click interrupted the conversation between the two.
Qingdai looked toward the source of the sound. The person stepped forward, and his three-dimensional and handsome facial features were gradually revealed under the moonlight.
"It seems that I came at the wrong time and disturbed you."
He Shaozhou was wearing a long black coat, which made him appear tall and long-legged. He had a gray knitted scarf hanging on his wrist. His unmanaged bangs hung naturally in front of his eyes. His white jade-like face was flushed with a thin red, and he was missing a few points. An inhumane sense of sharpness.
She stopped when she saw Qingdai was safe and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at him again, he is still so handsome. No wonder his daughter fell in love with him at first sight.
Qingdai turned around and saw that there was no obsessed look on Xia Ruxi's face. Instead, she was a little defensive: "Who are you?"
He Shaozhou lowered his gaze and glanced at Qingdai, but did not answer: "What's the matter with you? Xu An said he couldn't find you."
Qingdai groaned and felt uneasy under He Shaozhou's dark and deep eyes, "I'll find a place to watch the meteor shower."
He Shaozhou turned his attention to Qingdai sitting on the branches, and his posture calmly concealed his anxiety when he received the call and the panic of running all the way up the mountain.
He handed her the scarf silently. When Qingdai didn't respond, he said, "Sit on the scarf. The ground is too cold."
As if he was afraid that Qingdai wouldn't answer, he added hastily.
"Don't let everyone worry about you."
Qingdai held one end of the scarf and raised her head to look at him, "Can you watch it with me?"
He Shaozhou froze for a moment and glanced at Xia Ruxi, an "outsider", unnaturally.
Xia Ruxi understood something immediately and quietly turned and left with an aunt's smile on her face.
When only the two of them were left, He Shaozhou turned his head, put a fist to his lips and coughed lightly, "I'm not free."
Qingdai let go, retracted her face into the high collar of her milky white sweater, and said in a muffled voice, "I know. I know."
"I always miss you when you are free."
She said the last sentence very low, almost to herself, but He Shaozhou heard it clearly, and his heart suddenly ached.
“Ding—the task completion progress is 40%”
Qingdai began to regret it, he should obviously be happy.
But for some reason, his heart felt unbearably swollen, as if there were insects gnawing at his heart.
Qingdai lowered her head and opened her eyes slightly, trying hard not to shed tears. The tree roots beside her sank, she turned her head, and He Shaozhou sat down next to her.
He laid out his scarf and, as if compromising, tapped his side with his hand, "Sit down."
He Shaozhou supported his chin with one hand, looked at the stars in the sky, and said in a stiff tone, "We are about to fight a tough battle with Hongcheng. The legal staff cannot be sick."
Qingdai sat close, and a light scent of oud instantly enveloped her. He Shaozhou looked at her subconsciously.
As if Qingdai hadn't noticed his gaze, she was approaching him cautiously. Her large milky white sweater gently touched the corner of the black coat, and she showed a faint smile.
"Shang Qingdai."
He Shaozhou suddenly called her. Qingdai raised her head and met He Shaozhou's aggressive gaze. "So, why did you come to HD? I want to hear it now."
Bai Ci's little face turned red little by little under He Shaozhou's gaze. Qingdai bit her lip lightly, feeling shy but not looking away, looking back at He Shaozhou quietly.
She didn't speak, and He Shaozhou's disappointment filled his heart little by little. He sighed and turned his head: "Forget it. I won't force you."
A ray of light streaked across the sky, and then several beams of light scattered on the horizon. In an instant, the horizon was filled with trees and silver flowers.
He Shaozhou remembered the wish he made on his nineteenth birthday: he wanted to be with Shang Qingdai forever.
But his forever stayed in the year when Shang Qingdai went abroad.
"My wish is to congratulate Shaozhou."
"Um?"
A soft female voice sounded. He Shaozhou listened and lowered his head. When he heard his name, he frowned, "You called me..."
He Shaozhou suddenly paused because Qingdai placed a silver ring in his palm.
The female voice repeated slowly but firmly: "Shao Zhou, I mean, my wish is you."
“Ding—50% progress in completing the mission”
