Qiu Yingjie stepped out and stepped on the water pipe used to water the sunflowers, but he didn't seem to notice. He pointed at Lin Yue's face and cursed: "She is your niece, you are her uncle, she should not treat you Tempting, this is indeed her fault in the first place. It’s okay if you don’t know. Now that you know it and come to her to disturb her life, then you are a bastard. I don’t care about you, Chen Tingting, and Yang. The relationship between Yang Xue in the group is so complicated. If you dare to take advantage of my daughter, I tell you, there is no way!"
Lin Yue couldn't bear it anymore and punched Qiu Yingjie hard in the face, knocking him staggering and taking several steps back.
"Pooh!"
Qiu Yingjie wiped the corner of his mouth and found that the back of his hand was stained with blood, and his back molars were loose, which showed how heavy Lin Yue's punch was.
"I really regret having recognized a brother like you."
"I also regret that when I saved your life, I should just watch you die of illness." Lin Yue took out a piece of paper from his pocket and patted his chest: "Look what this is."
Qiu Yingjie turned the paper over with a hint of confusion and held it in front of his eyes for a look.
Medical records?
What surprised him even more was that the name column in the upper left corner was filled with the word "Qiu Yan", and below it was a laboratory test sheet. He couldn't understand this, but the doctor's opinion that the words "suspected tumor" there made him If shot.
Suspected tumor?
Brain?
"This... Qiu Yan didn't tell me? This is not true. You are lying to me."
That's what he said, but judging from his expression, any fool knew that it was just a tough talk, or self-deception, because the news came too suddenly and too shocking.
Lin Yue said: "Do you know how I knew she was sick? Before you left Yiwu, she left me a letter, saying that she would go to Stanford Business School for further study. I was quite happy. I felt that she was far away from the place of right and wrong. Fortunately, after she finished her master's degree, I also settled the Yuzhu Group. However, in the following days, I couldn't make calls, the messages sent by MSN were like nothing, and her blog also stopped updating. I went to New York on a business trip a few days ago, and I wanted to I wanted to take a long detour to see what happened to her, but ended up going to California. When I asked the school, her tutor told me that Qiu Yan had suspended her studies less than two months after entering the school. The reason was not given, but according to What he said is that Qiu Yan's physical condition is worrying. It reminds me of what my neighbors said to me a few months ago when they asked me for credit. They said that Qiu Yan had severe hypoglycemia and that they were the ones who fainted downstairs before. When I sent her to the hospital, I found an acquaintance at the hospital and retrieved her medical records, and here they are, what you have in your hand."
"Qiu Yan...she...what's wrong with her? Why didn't she tell us that she was sick?"
Not only did Qiu Yan not tell him about his illness with Zhang Sheng, he also concealed his suspension from school.
Lin Yue said: "How long has it been since she contacted you?"
"Half a month, half a month ago she sent us an email, saying that she was very good and that her tutor and classmates took good care of her." Qiu Yingjie hid one thing, that is, after discovering his daughter's thoughts and ordering her to stay away from Lin Yue, The relationship between Qiu Yan and his family became awkward... or tense. He usually didn't call home. When he called her, he would either reply to a text message and say he was in class, or send a photo to Zhang Xue and briefly introduce the current situation. , even the required questions about caring about my younger brother’s studies are omitted.
Lin Yue took out his mobile phone, dialed a number and handed it over: "Don't believe it? This is her mentor's phone number. Ask yourself."
Qiu Yingjie took it and put it to his ear, and spoke a few words in English to the man opposite. When he hung up the phone, his face was so heavy that he could squeeze out water.
He took out his mobile phone again and dialed Qiu Yan's phone number. A few seconds later, a pleasant ringtone rang.
Just as she was looking for the source of the sound, Lin Yue took out a blue Motorola mobile phone from his pocket, which was the source of the ringtone.
Qiu Yingjie said: "Why is Qiu Yan's mobile phone in your hand?"
"You are wrong. This is not Qiu Yan's cell phone. She turned on call forwarding. This is the cell phone of her college classmate, so you should know why she doesn't answer every call."
"What on earth did she do this for?"
"For what? You should have thought of the answer to this question, but you just don't want to admit it."
Yes, Qiu Yingjie thought of it.
Qiu Yan did this to prevent her family from finding her.
In other words, she has been disappointed in her family and has no love left.
"You told him to stay away from me. Well, she did it, and she did it very thoroughly. She stayed quietly in a place she liked and waited for the end. She didn't have to implicate me or you. Who forced her to do this? One step?" Lin Yue grabbed Qiu Yingjie's collar and glared at the man who had righteously scolded Chen Jianghe for selling fake goods: "Why did you and Zhang Xue divorce back then? One wanted to study abroad, and the other wanted to work. Regardless of your family, as a father and mother, have you ever considered her feelings? Now that she likes someone she shouldn't like, you find it unacceptable and can't keep it on your face, so you use the authority of your elders to order her to give up and ask her to give up. She takes care of you, Qiu Yingjie, you are really a selfish person. If I had known that you would become like this ten years later, I should have let you fend for yourself back then. In this way, Qiu Yan would not fall in love with me in the future. There is no need for her to be world-weary because of all the obstacles."
After speaking, he pushed Qiu Yingjie, who looked dull, to the ground.
Lin Yue continued: "Before Yang Tianci died, he asked Yang Xue to swear not to marry me in this life. What did you say? You said he was harming his own daughter, but you didn't expect that ten years later you would become another person. Yang Tianci, Qiu Yingjie, I am really disappointed in you."
"I...I..." Qiu Yingjie was speechless by what he said, and it took him a while to find a reason to excuse himself.
"We only hope that she will marry a man who loves her. In Zhang Xue's words, you are excellent, so outstanding that you are dazzling. But because of this, you are surrounded by many equally excellent women. I heard that Zhang Tingting has been waiting for you for ten years. A few years ago, I heard that Yang Xue never got married... We did this for her own good."
"You are doing it for her good, but what's the final result? Is she fine?"
"..."
Qiu Yingjie was asked again.
Lin Yue sneered: "So this kind of behavior from one's own standpoint, especially without similar experience, based on subjective thoughts to do good for others is the most annoying. Qiu Yan's life is her own decision. She is a thoughtful and living person. A human being is not a doll that you can dress up."
Seeing Qiu Yingjie's face full of frustration and paralyzed on the ground as if all his strength had been taken away, Lin Yue curled his lips and turned around to leave.
"You...you wait..."
Lin Yue paused for a moment, but quickly moved on.
"Qiu Yan, what should Qiu Yan do?"
From concealing her condition to setting up call forwarding on her mobile phone and only using email to communicate, Qiu Yingjie knew that she had made up her mind not to come back. It was impossible for him and Zhang Xue to find his daughter who had been traveling around since college. As the general manager of Shuangwu Group, Lin Yue needs money, power, and connections. If he wants to find Qiu Yan as soon as possible, he must rely on him.
"If I find her, I'll let you know."
After saying this, he opened the door and got in. The Chevrolet SUV turned on the ground and drove east.
Qiu Yingjie sat on the ground for a while before digesting the information. He picked up the phone and dialed Zhang Xue's number.
"Hey, Zhang Xue, something happened to Qiu Yan..."
…
October.
The sky in Dublin is foggy, as if covered with a thin veil. When the clouds in the west are ignited by the sunset, the wind carries the fragrance of clover through the streets and alleys, signaling the beginning of autumn to the city.
In fact, it doesn’t need to be so troublesome. Just look at people’s clothes and you can feel the coolness of autumn blowing on your face.
The temperature difference between morning and evening and noon forces people to wear single clothes at noon and put on fleece jackets in the evening. Some people wear scarves around their necks. Of course, in this country, its role is not only to keep out the cold, but also to convey beauty.
In the Temple Bar area, if you can ignore the noisy human voices and the ringing bells from time to time, then the sound of the flowing River Liffey will bring a sense of tranquility amidst the bustle to tourists in this Irish-style neighborhood.
At the entrance of the alley between two clothing stores, a man wearing a black coat and jeans with a curly palm-colored beard hung a broken guitar on his shoulder that looked old, playing and singing. The song he wrote himself comes from the West. The light, cooled by the wind, shines on his profile, adding some unique evening sadness to his rough appearance. Some people call it British style.
are you really here.
.
i 't tell dreams from truth.
for it's been so long.
since i have seen you.
i hardly remember your faymore.
when really lonely.
aance ly silence.
i think of you smiling.
…
There are some people around, mostly tourists from other places. People who are returning home from get off work will watch while walking, with a little strange smile on their face.
This is the most vibrant neighborhood in Dublin, with museums, galleries and theaters of all sizes, so it is naturally popular with art lovers.
Qiu Yan stepped forward on the cobblestones and listened quietly to the singer's slightly hoarse voice.
After revisiting her old place and feeling the cultural atmosphere of this city again, she found that her desire to settle here in the future became even stronger.
but……
She also understood that for her, this was just a wish that seemed within reach, but was actually out of reach.
when you kry.
to be a better one.
to satisfy you.
for y to me.
…
The singing sounded to her ears along with the melody, and as she listened to the lyrics, she couldn't help but think of the past and that person.
I don’t know if he is doing well.
I don’t know if he is married to Chen Tingting.
I don’t know what he was thinking when he saw the note he left, anger? disappointment? sad? Or does it not matter?
I wonder if he will think of me in his spare time at work, be distracted by me, and be in a daze because of me...
A little girl wearing a yellow princess dress with soft skin and exquisite dress took the 5 pounds from her mother's hand, walked up to the singer, and put it into her guitar bag.
The singer nodded at her.
The little girl smiled knowingly.
A very loving scene.
are you really here.
.
i 't tell dreams from truth.
for it's been so long.
since i have seen you.
When the singer repeated the verse again, Qiu Yan took a breath of hot air into her palms and felt a little cold. Just as she took her hands away, within the blink of an eye, there was another person in front of the model in the window of the clothing store on the left.
Someone who made her feel like she was in a dream, just like the lyrics of this song goes.
are you really here.
.
How could he be here? Impossible, impossible.
Qiu Yan rubbed his eyes and looked over there.
He was still there, his mouth was smiling, his eyebrows were smiling, and his whole body was illuminated with a warm color.
“Does it snow in Dublin in winter?”
When these words floated through the melody, Qiu Yan's body was shaken.
When she was writing about her travels in Dublin on her blog, Lin Yue left this paragraph in the message area.
She didn't know if it would snow in Dublin in winter, so she thought she would spend the last winter of her life here and answer this question with her own experience.
He took out his hand from his pocket and made a gesture expecting a hug.
Qiu Yan's eyes turned red and he rushed out desperately, throwing himself into the embrace he had been thinking about for a long time.
So warm.
Warmer than the midday sun in Dublin.
She seemed to melt into the evening.
if you want me.
satisfy me.
if you want me.
satisfy me.
The singer turned to the side, looked at the two people hugging each other and smiled slightly, and the guitar melody suddenly changed.
i dont know you.
but i want you.
all the more for that.
words fall through me.
and always fool me.
…
Half an hour later.
"Do you know who was the first to spread the gossip that I was waiting for you to stay unmarried for so many years?"
"who is it?"
"it's me."
"you……"
"Except for life and death, everything in this world is trivial."
…
One month later.
The autumn light is cold, the Wujiang River is cold, the evening wind bids farewell to the sunset, and the long pavilion is full of sorrow and sleep.
On the road leading from the Small Commodity City to Chenjiacun, Chen Tingting was walking slowly in a cashmere coat, with a milky white Chanel handbag swaying gently by her calf. She wanted to go as slowly as possible to make the road longer, because the person accompanying her beside her The person is Mr. Lin who pushes the bicycle.
He rarely walks with her, let alone takes her home.
"Have you not obtained your driver's license yet? It's been half a year, right?"
"I...I don't dare to drive. What if I hit someone? I'd better ride a bicycle. I'm used to it and it's safe."
"There will be more and more vehicles on the road in the future, and I won't trust you like this."
"Are you worried about me?"
Chen Tingting paused, her eyes shining with relief and surprise.
Lin Yue said: "Since you were little, you have been bullied and gotten into trouble. How often have I not wiped your butt? I have been worried about you for so many years. What is there to make such a fuss about?"
Chen Tingting smiled when she thought about her childhood. She touched the pocket of her coat and took out a piece of White Rabbit toffee.
"Give."
Lin Yue laughed dumbly and shook his head: "I won't eat."
She didn't listen, and she didn't care. She took off the candy wrapper outside and the glutinous rice wrapper inside, and brought it to his mouth.
"Eat, eat."
Lin Yue had no choice but to open his mouth and eat the candy she gave him.
"Did Qiu Yan's habit of carrying sweets in his pocket come from you?"
"Yes, she always suffers from hypoglycemia, so I advised her to carry some of this in her pocket. I remember she asked me why I didn't carry chocolate, saying it was more nutritious than toffee, and I said you were used to it. When I was a child, I I cried when I was bullied. You thought I was upset when I talked too much, and when you asked me to help deceive Aunt Yulian, you would use this to gag me. Oh, by the way, I remember Qiu Yan said that American universities are 12 We have winter vacation at the beginning of the month, will she come back then?"
Chen Tingting didn't know about Qiu Yan yet and thought she was studying at Stanford Business School.
Lin Yue shook his head: "She is hospitalized."
"Hospitalized?" Chen Tingting was shocked, grabbed his arm, and said worriedly: "What kind of disease is it? Is it serious?"
"Brain cancer."
"Brain cancer? How is that possible!"
She was stunned by the bad news.
"You said she often gets dizzy because of this." Lin Yue sighed: "I came to pick you up today just to tell you about this. She went to Stanford Business School to study as an excuse to avoid me."
"Avoiding you? If you are sick, go and get treatment. Why are you hiding from you? What is this little girl thinking? See if I don't look back... no..."
She wanted to curse Qiu Yan to death, but when the word "death" came to her lips, she swallowed it alive.
Qiu Yan had known her very well since she was a child. They got along very well after returning to Yiwu last year. Although they were almost ten years apart, they looked like a pair of good sisters. Now that something like this happened, would she not feel uncomfortable? Well.
"She...which hospital is she in? Can you take me to see her?"
"The doctor said her condition is quite stable. Staying in the hospital will affect her mood and not be beautiful. She will be back in a week or two."
Hearing this, Chen Tingting breathed a sigh of relief, nodded her head and said, "That's good."
"Actually... there is one more thing, which is about Qiu Yan and I. I think... it is necessary to tell you."
"You and Qiu Yan? What's going on?"
Lin Yue stopped, looked into her eyes and said something.
