After the Huajing Awards, Qi Xingchen and Bai Ye turned off their cell phones, computers and a series of communication tools, eliminated all work and contacts, and stayed together every day to watch movies and sing songs. When they are hungry, they cook together, and when they are sleepy, they snuggle up to each other and sleep. With their lover by their side, even their dreams are sweet.
Until the night before New Year's Eve, the two of them said goodbye briefly and returned to their respective homes. For Qi Xingchen, Qi's family is the biggest concern in this world except Bai Ye, for Bai Ye, although there is no difference between inside and outside the book, after spending nearly two years with his family inside the book, he still can't bear to let his parents spend the Chinese New Year by themselves.
Early in the morning of New Year's Eve, Qi Xingchen, just like last year, scurried around the yard putting up spring scrolls. After posting the Spring Festival couplets, he rummaged out the tea Bai Ye bought for Qi's father a few days before from the box, carrying the tea set into the study.
Master Qi had five large red envelopes in front of him, and was writing inscriptions on them one by one. He likes to write a few words on his children's red envelopes, giving them money and not forgetting to encourage them.
Seeing his youngest son come in, Qi's father put down his brush, "Finished posting the spring scrolls?"
"Finished," Qi Xingchen set up the tea set, "Dad, have some tea."
Because Qi's business is busy and Qi Xingchen has his own business, father and son have very little time to spend alone like this. As Qi's father slowly sips from a cup of tea, Qi Xingchen pounds his back and tells him about the interesting things he has encountered during this period of time, making him laugh and smile, which is as good as any other joy in the family.
"By the way," Father Ki said, "have you lined up your schedule for after the first of the year, and from when?"
Qi Xingchen remained silent for a moment and lied, "I'll go over to Brother Night's side on the second day of the lunar month to take a look around, and then I'll be busy. You must take good care of your health on the days I'm not at home."
"Don't worry, Dad will take care of it."
Qi's father patted his youngest son's hand on his shoulder, "I'm still waiting to see you guys become a family ...... with my own eyes I don't know when Yunxiao and Yuji will have to wait to go. You can probably hurry up, when the time comes, Dad will definitely give you a beautiful ceremony, definitely not let Xiao Bai regret marrying into our Qi family."
After all this time, father still thinks Bai Ye is a little weak, Qi Xingchen wanted to laugh and cry a little, but finally gave a sweet "hmmm".
Before we knew it, it was noon. Qi Xingchen couldn't bear the thought of her sister organizing the New Year's Eve dinner all by herself, so she rushed to the kitchen to help.
Too many, too many things have happened to the Kish family since the fire on the fourth day of last year, and fortunately it's all behind us now.
To celebrate the aftermath of the robbery, and to make the upcoming New Year a little smoother, Qi Yuji pulled together a long list of recipes last night. When Qi Xingchen got changed and entered the kitchen, she saw her sister rolling up her arms and sleeves and sharpening her knives on the pigs and sheep.
How can a girl do such a thing, Qi Xingchen grabbed the knife, "I'll do it."
"You be careful not to cut your hand." Qi Yuji responded, muttering as he went to work on something else.
After a while, when the meat was finished, Qi Xingchen grabbed the fish, washed it, and threw it into the boiling broth.
Qi Yuji was anxious, "Fish it out, you haven't cleaned up the guts, you haven't scaled the fish!"
"I remember you saying that fish scales and guts are nutritious," Qi Xingchen was innocent, "that's why I cooked it whole."
"...... I was not ignorant at that time. Later on, when dad and brother were away and I went to the company to take charge, I realized that I was really too well-protected by my family, not touching the water of the spring with my ten fingers, and blindly cooking the dishes that you all closed your eyes and praised them as delicious," Qi Yuji spat out his tongue, "I'm going to study hard from now on and won't pit you guys against each other."
"It's okay," Qi Xingchen helped her tuck her loose hair behind her ear, "keep being Missy, that's what you're supposed to be."
The last dish in the casserole takes a long time to smother, and in between waiting for the dish to finish cooking, Qi Xingchen runs to the backyard to find Qi Yunxiao.
Some time ago, because he was always running outside, the task of taking care of the two sweat-blooded horses fell to Qi Yunxiao.
Qi's family has a breeder, but the horses need to be close to their owners often to stay happy. Qi Yunxiao comes to check on them every few days, and today is no different, taking a brush and helping the horses gently comb their manes.
Qi Xingchen also picked up a brush and went to brush another horse like him. The result may not be the right way, the horse sprayed a face of spittle.
Qi Yunxiao couldn't help but smile, pulling her brother aside, pulling out a handkerchief and wiping his face as she lamented, "Thanks to you, the Qi family was able to survive this year."
"Don't say that," Qi Xingchen nuzzled, "I'm one of Qi's family."
Qi Yunxiao action paused, "Xingchen, I always feel that you have something to hide from me, I won't push you, but you have to remember that I will always be your big brother, the Qi family will always be your backing. If you have something on your mind, if you are wronged outside, come home, I can afford to support you, hmm?"
"...... Okay," Qi Xingchen took a deep breath and solemnly said, "I know, thanks brother."
Maybe it was because of hitting spring early, this year's New Year's Eve was not as cold as previous years. After a whole day's work, finally all the meals were successfully cooked, and Qi's family changed into neat red clothes and sat around the dining table.
Without waiting to announce the start of the meal, I suddenly heard Auntie Zhang shout, "Young master, you slow down!"
What a familiar line. Qi Xingchen knows exactly who's coming.
Qi Jiaze, dressed in a black biker suit, ran into the dining room in a flurry of activity, threw her backpack onto a stool, and squeezed herself very much out of sight next to Qi Xingchen.
He did well in the college entrance exams and managed to get into the university that he and Tao Xuan had agreed to go to. This semester just after the military training, his skin is a little darker than before, his body is also stronger, and he can already vaguely see the shadow of a man.
But the silly fufu problem remained unchanged, Qi Jiaze hugged Qi Xingchen and shook him vigorously from side to side: "Brother, where's brother-in-law, why didn't he come?"
Qi Xingchen didn't hide and let him hug her, "My brother-in-law is going home for the New Year."
"Ch, I still want to pull him to play a few pesticide, then forget it," Qi Jiaze heatedly laughed, "in the future on respectively looking for him, look for me, I will take you."
" ...... Okay, I'll find you to play sometime. Come on stop fooling around and eat."
Qi Jiaze was reluctant to let go of his brother, and then assumed the responsibility of the younger generation, multiplying the soup for his brother and sister, and pouring wine for his eldest uncle. Everyone was pleased to see his growth and had a happy reunion dinner.
Dumplings are essential for Chinese New Year, and as a 10th grade dumpling master, Qi Xingchen instructs Qi Yuji and Qi Jiaze in dough kneading and trapping just as the Spring Festival Gala begins.
Halfway through the rubbing, the visual electronic lock indicated that someone was coming. He could probably guess who it was, wiped his hands clean and ran out, and outside the front door was indeed Liang Jing.
Liang Jing handed Qi Xingchen the wooden box containing the red wine: "My father gave it to uncle, I won't go in, bring me a good new year."
"Uh-huh," Qi Xingchen took it and said after a moment of silence, "Liang Jing, I'm leaving."
In "Peach of the Night", besides Tao Tao, only Liang Jing knew Qi Xingchen's real identity. At this, Liang Jing stiffened, wanted to ask, but swallowed his words.
He didn't dare ask, didn't know for sure what he meant by "go".
Is it time to go out to work again or ...... Leaving this space for good.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Qi Xingchen patted him on the shoulder, "But it's good that I'm leaving, you don't have to be sad anymore because you missed Takeshi's death. Your luminary will always be there, and please help him grow into a better person, okay?"
Liang Jing lowered his eyes for a long, long time before raising his head and smiling, "Good. I also wish you peace and prosperity in the future."
.
As the clock struck twelve, Qi Xingchen received his own big red envelope. Qi's father gave him the inscription "The wind and waves will break sometimes", and like all fathers in the world, he is looking forward to his child's life of riding the waves.
After collecting the red envelopes and exchanging Happy New Year greetings with his family, Qi Xingchen went back to his room, sat down in front of his desk, unfolded a pen and paper, and wrote the first line in the warm yellow light of the desk lamp:
"Qi Xingchen, hello, I'm the other you.
You may be surprised or comical when you receive this letter, but I'm guessing you won't throw it away because what I'm about to say has to do with your family.
Your sister's boyfriend, Zhou Yu, is a scum, that's a fact we all know. But on April 2, 19, please don't get into a fight with him. Fighting won't do any good, you can record the video of him bullying you and show it to your sister. It's more important to get your sister rid of the scum quickly than to teach him a lesson, isn't it?
You love Liang Jing, and at the time of reading this letter, you are still grieving for him for not saying goodbye. What you need to do is to see if you are really in love with him or if it's a dependency that has built up over the years. If you're sure it's love, then you can use the time he's away to refine yourself and build yourself into a better person. Show him a luminous you when he returns.
You may have always thought that your brother Qi Jiaze is uneducated, but he is not! He is a smart, kind and righteous kid just like you. As his most trusted brother, you have the responsibility and obligation to guide him to a better future. There is a student named Tao Xuan in his class who is seriously ill. Please tell Jiaze to treat Tao Xuan well and try to be friends with him. Believe me, they'll give you a big surprise in no time, haha!
Finally, why can I be sure that you will read this letter? Because I know that while your family loves you, you actually love them deeply. Don't feel like you don't deserve the love of your family, you have the same blood in your veins and there is no one who sees the good in you more than they do. You have to realize that what you have is something that many people will never get. So put down your baggage and open your heart to embrace your family, and maybe you'll find another world.
After all this, you're already starting to get tired of my rambling, aren't you? I'll stop then, and I'll wish you from another dimension - may you be happy and loved forever.
The Other You in the World. 2021.2.7."
.
Early on the first day of the New Year, Qi Xingchen goes to the prison to see Tao Tao one last time. After the reboot of Peach of the Night, she's the only one with memories, and only by giving them to her can we ensure that the letter is delivered to the original owner.
When he came out of prison, he didn't go home, but had his driver drive the car to the tattoo parlor. The feeling of needles piercing into flesh and blood was painful, but from start to finish, he had a smile on his lips.
Qi Xingchen's cell phone was basically ringing off the hook after he won the award, but he ignored it completely and spent another day with his family.
In the early morning of 2.8, as if by appointment, he and Bai Ye landed at the same time in G City, the coastal city with their family.
They have celebrated Bai Ye's eighth anniversary, the first anniversary of their meeting, and Bai Ye's birthday here, and for them, this is where the best memories are sealed.
If I had to choose a place to say goodbye, the sweetness left here should be enough to drive away the bitterness in my heart.
Tao Tao's execution is at 5:00 a.m. on February 9. Bai Ye looks at his watch, "It's 7:00 a.m., twenty-two hours until you return to reality, what do you want to do?"
"Let's have breakfast first," Qi Xingchen took his hand, "I'm so tired from catching the red-eye flights, I'm starving."
Bai Ye touches his stomach, which is really deflated, and instructs A Lun to find a breakfast place.
Breakfast places are everywhere, but it's not easy to find one that can accommodate a top streamer and a movie star. In order not to lose time, Qi Xingchen just pointed out a place.
He just got a tattoo and can't eat spicy food, but he didn't know Bai Ye didn't choose spicy food either. Amidst the astonished gazes of passers-by, the two big stars ate up a table full of breakfast.
With food in his stomach, Qi Xingchen's thoughts also came alive, he shook Bai Ye's arm: "We've been together for so long, every time we go to the cinema, we either do activities or run roadshows, we haven't seen a movie yet, let's go to see a movie."
"I'll look for ......" Bai Ye opens the ticketing app, "The most recent one is forty minutes later, rom-com."
"That's it." Qi Xingchen clapped his hands. He didn't really want to watch a movie anyway, but he wanted to do all the things that couples should do but haven't done with Bai Ye.
Bai Ye understands him, buys a ticket for the last row, and navigates A Lun towards the movie theater.
Snacks are essential to a movie. Bai Ye has never been in love before, but he has seen pigs run. After exchanging tickets in the movie theater, Bai Ye said, "Wait for me here. Don't go anywhere."
Qi Xingchen doesn't know what he's up to, and nods, leaning over the railing to play demotivation with A Lun.
He was wearing a mask and hat, and it was hard to recognize who he was with his head down. Shortly after, Bai Ye came back with a big tube of popcorn, two ice creams and two milk teas.
A Lun first mentally counted the calories, and then reacted to one thing: "Boss, where's mine?"
Qi Xingchen picks up the top of the popcorn bucket and shoves it into Bai Ye's mouth, "Eat."
"It's not too late to go in and eat," Bai Ye chewed, "It's easy to get photographed here."
"No, this one has the heaviest color and is covered in the most butter and sugar and tastes the best, you shouldn't be able to find it if you go in there in the dark."
After being together for so long, his young boyfriend had always insisted on giving him the best of the best, Bai Ye's heart trembled slightly at the tip of his tongue as he pulled off his mask and gave Qi Xingchen a popcorn-flavored kiss.
"......." A Lun catches on, "No, boss, you guys control me, I don't have any snacks!"
Unfortunately, A Lun's protests were ineffective, and the theater's announcement indicated that tickets could be checked in, so the two men, each holding a pile of food, went off to check in, laughing and talking.
The movie theater on the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year wasn't crowded, and there were two couples in the last row besides them. When they saw something moving, Bai Ye noticed that his girlfriends were leaning on their boyfriends' shoulders and calling, and he reached out and pressed Qi Xingchen's head.
It didn't press down, but got bitten instead.
Under the stool, though, the two held hands tighter together.
At the end of the movie, A Lun finally gets the snack he wanted - Bai Ye throws him the remaining half bucket of popcorn and takes his little boyfriend straight to the crane machine.
Next to the movie theater is the arcade, facing a whole row of crane machines, Xingchen next door is going crazy with gluttony, looking forward to saying, "Night, can you?"
Bai Ye raises an eyebrow, "Watch me grab you one of each."
"...... How are you going to catch it?"
"There it is." Bai Ye pulled two large bags of coins out from behind him and snapped his fingers triumphantly.
He perfectly illustrates what it means to have money when skill is not enough. With two big bags of coins poured down, there is nothing he can't handle, and in the end, Qi Xingchen catches one of each kind of doll.
So many dolls have no place to put, Qi Xingchen pocket a few, hanging a few on the waist, the hand even carry a big pile. Passing girls can't help but stop and take pictures when they see them.
Seeing as one of the girls is pretty, A Lun smacks his lips, "Xingchen, you can't get enough of her anyway, give her one."
Qi Xingchen, her head covered by the oversized doll, struggled to speak, "No!"
Bai Ye : "To send you to catch yourself."
A Lun : "....... Wooooooooooooooooo."
However, after crying, A Lun had to do what his boss told him to do and move on to the next location. After a day of running to countless places, he became more and more strange--
How come the boss is playing almost everything he can as if the world is coming to an end?
Unfortunately, he won't get an answer anymore, as the two men, who had just finished jerking off at a beachside stall, very mercilessly left him behind and returned to their little cottage for two, holding hands.
When they got inside, they didn't rush to shower and lay side by side on the bed, so comfortable that every pore screamed.
Qi Xingchen patted his round belly, "Brother Night, what have we done today?"
"Saw a movie, caught a doll, played video games, went on a carousel, went to a haunted house, rode a roller coaster, and had a barbecue on the beach ...... Well, and hit the water for twenty minutes on the way."
"After playing so much ......" Qi Xingchen snapped her fingers and counted, "Night, what time is it."
Bai Ye looked at his watch, "It's almost zero o'clock."
Hearing the time, the two of them were coincidentally silent for a few seconds, and then Qi Xingchen tugged on Bai Ye's sleeve, "Brother Night, go take a bath, together, we only have one last thing left to do as a couple that we haven't done."
Bai Ye knew what he was referring to and got up and carried the man to the bathroom.
All day today, neither of them mentioned the memory reset, as if the sun would surely rise as it always did, or as if they would surely see each other's faces when they opened their eyes tomorrow.
But they all knew in their hearts how heavy the word "tomorrow" was.
It represents new life.
It also stands for, oblivion.
Bai Ye pressed Qi Xingchen against the wall, and the two kissed frantically, kissing until they drained each other of every last ounce of oxygen, kissing until they seemed to be trying to imprint their lover into their bodies.
As the space heats up, Bai Ye's hand probes inside Qi Xingchen's t-shirt, and as he slides upward, his fingertips touch the opposite of subtlety.
"What's this ......" He frowned and lifted his t-shirt.
With that, on the left breast of the young boyfriend, a tattoo in the shape of a moon was seen.
Qi Xingchen knew Bai Ye would see it and explained with a red face, "Tattoos can pierce the flesh and leave the design in the body forever. Brother Night, I want to ...... I want to remember you in this way."
Bai Ye ran his fingertips over the pattern and suddenly smiled.
"What a coincidence, that's how I want to remember you."
Bai Ye ripped open the collar of his pajama bottoms. Same spot on the left side of his heart.
Emblazoned with a dazzling Xingchen.
.
A spring night's dream continued long enough that by the time he emerged from the bathroom, the sky had dawned and the horizon glowed a golden red.
Qi Xingchen leaned against Bai Ye's shoulder, listening to his heartbeat. Bai Ye stroked his lover's soft hair and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it a pity that you had to leave after winning the movie award so easily?"
"No pity," Qi Xingchen's voice was soft, "If I hadn't worn the book, I probably wouldn't have been able to experience being loved by my family, worshipped by my fans, and awarded the highest honor in my life. I'm already very content and satisfied to have this experience, I'm not greedy."
"What about when we get back, do you want to find your real parents?"
"I don't want to," Qi Xingchen said dryly, "If they come to me, I will do my duty as a child. But if they don't ...... I won't disturb their lives either, I'm used to being alone."
Bai Ye's heart was being tugged, and it hurt in every way. He didn't want to bring up the unhappy matter, and pinched the back of Qi Xingchen's neck: "Honestly, when we first met, when I smacked you with a table book, were you scared?"
"It didn't really feel like much, I was so groggy and my head was so full of 'how did I Ai Dou come to be here' that I didn't even think about being scared."
"Where's the airport, why don't you get me coffee?"
"...... I can't believe you're still thinking about it! I seem to have miscounted at the time and forgot to include you."
"Poor that bike race, I actually got there five minutes before you, you didn't know that, did you?"
"! I'm riding fast enough, you're faster than me, are you a monster!"
Qi Xingchen paused, "And did you know that after you traded your ring for my ice cream, I ordered another ring according to the circumference of your finger?"
Qi Xingchen took a deep breath, "At that time we were not familiar with each other, I was afraid that you would think it was not pretty, and I never dared to take it out. Later we are together, I want to wait for my mine to open the best diamonds, after setting ......."
"After all that," Bai Ye interrupted out of the blue, "where's the ring?"
Qi Xingchen was slightly ashamed, "I'm at home, I didn't bring it."
Bai Ye flicked him hard on the side of the head and said roguishly, "You owe me, and when you get back to reality, you'll have to pay me back for a ring."
"...... Good," Qi Xingchen covered his head with tears.
Immediately afterward he yawned, "Did you play too heavy, I'm suddenly so sleepy ......"
It's not the play that's heavy, it's the ......
Five o'clock is almost here.
No one wants to face parting soberly.
As he had done countless nights before, Bai Ye took the man into his arms, "Sleep when you're sleepy, baby."
Qi Xingchen also realized something, he tried hard to open his eyes, but his eyelids got heavier and heavier ......
Before he closed his eyes, he murmured, "Good night, I love you."
.
"Calling Surgical P2 Nurse, calling Surgical P2 Nurse, there's a patient in need of a medication change, there's a patient in need of a medication change."
"Aiya, you're a little kid who doesn't walk long enough to see what's going on! My left leg has just been put in a plaster cast, if you break it, see if I'll find your parents!"
"Grandpa, I'll just give you an IV, no muscle shots, you don't have to howl!"
"Drip-drip-drip..."
...... Who's talking?
Qi Xingchen frowned and reluctantly opened his eyes as the noises competed for his ears.
Sitting up and looking around, I was surrounded by men and women in blue and white striped clothes. In the innermost bed, the man in the white coat was observing the infusion bottles and writing something in a book in his hand.
Looking at the scene, he should be in the hospital.
...... But why was he at the hospital?
He's supposed to be on his way to a Bai Ye concert!
The brain is chaotic, Qi Xingchen shook vigorously, and shook vigorously, and the scene of a small car rushing by gradually appeared in front of his eyes ......
Yeah, come to think of it! He was on his way to the concert when he got a call from the station sister and heard about Bai Ye's stage accident and panicked for a moment--
Just accidentally hit by a car!
My God, he's in one piece now, isn't he? Qi Xingchen hurriedly lifted the covers and looked down carefully.
Well, the arms and legs are still there, not paraplegic.
What about the face? Will it be disfigured by the crash?
Qi Xingchen pulled out the needle from his hand, rolled out of bed with a grunt, stood up with a slightly stiff neck, held his neck and ran to the public restroom.
Standing in front of the mirror and examining it from side to side, the results were sort of pleasing - the face and brain were there, just a heavy collar around the neck.
In that case, he's pretty much intact and lucky.
...... Qi Xingchen had a wonderful feeling.
He's not whole, he seems ...... missing a little something.
He subconsciously unbuttoned his hospital gown and observed his front. The skin there was smooth and delicate, not having suffered the slightest damage in the accident.
But he could be sure that it wasn't supposed to be like that there!
He's missing a little something!
A great panic swept through his heart, and Qi Xingchen had a vague feeling that--
If he doesn't figure out what he's missing, he may spend his life as a walking corpse, living forever in numbness and regret!
Unable to care what anyone else thought, he ran out like a madman, grabbed a random nurse and pointed to his chest, "I'm missing something here, you know?"
"Ah..." the nurse screamed, closing her eyes in horror.
Qi Xingchen dumped her, ran a few steps, and grabbed another older woman, "Auntie, do you know what I'm missing here?"
"Bah," the aunt spat fiercely, "the young man looks like a man, but actually can do this kind of beastly thing. Come on, come on, hooligans!"
Auntie ripped out her voice, and it didn't take long for Qi Xingchen to be surrounded by a circle of people. A few of the young girls were red-faced and peeking at him through their fingers, while the rest of them were tutting in wonder, thinking that young people nowadays were getting more and more strange in their proclivities.
Probably because he really didn't look like a hooligan, someone in the crowd speculated, "Could he have lost his mind?"
"Lost heart? It's really possible, didn't he ask what he was missing, I think it's possible that he lost his heart, hahahaha!"
Heart Lost ......
Heart Lost ......
Qi Xingchen was frozen in place, all he could think of was "heart lost", and he reached out and touched his hand to the spot where his heart had been.
Across the epidermis, there is what looks like a ...... mark of the moon.
"Moon ...... Moon ......"
He mumbled lost in thought, and somewhere in the middle of the moment, a myriad of memory fragments whizzed by.
Practice rooms, airports, pedestrianized Danish streets.
SeaWorld, the studio, the backstage of the rowdy show.
Powder room, hotel, two-story villa on the waterfront.
Stage, studio, and ...... Moon tattoo on his chest.
He didn't lose his heart, he almost lost something more important than his heart.
His boyfriend, his lover, his ...... Bai Ye!
As if a drowning man had finally grabbed a lifeline, Qi Xingchen breathed heavily and stumbled over to a girl, "Where's Bai Ye?"
The girl took a step back in fear.
He then asked the nurse, "Where's Bai Ye, he's hurt too, where is he?"
"You, you mean, is that Bai Ye who sings?" The nurse couldn't speak well, pointing upwards, "He, he's in the VIP."
He's here too ......
He's here too!
Qi Xingchen squeezed out of the crowd and ran into the building without time to find the elevator!
Meanwhile, the top VIP.
Bai Ye snaps out the door and slaps the dozing A Lun awake: "Go check out a boy named Qi Xingchen, a local university biology major, a fan of mine, who was just in a car accident on his way to see my concert."
A Lun's back was burning with pain from his beating, and he bared his teeth, "Boss, why are you looking for this guy? Besides, there are tons of people named Qi Xingchen, where can I get him?"
"Don't nag," Bai Ye spreads his palm, "he gave you this ear return, you can ask the back up club too."
"Boss ......." At this time Xiao Man, who had been taking care of him in the hospital, weakly said, "This Qi Xingchen you're talking about I seem to know, because of his good looks, I often go to the general ward on the fifth floor to peek at him."
Fifth floor ......
Bai Ye glanced at his floor, twenty-eight.
"Boss, you're having trouble with your arm, why don't you let me take a look at it for you?"
No sooner had Xiao Man finished speaking than Bai Ye, whose arm was still in a cast, disappeared.
Unable to wait for the elevator, Bai Ye rushes into the stairwell, mouthing, "Twenty-seven, twenty-six, twenty-five ......"
Injured in the neck and unable to make a run, Qi Xingchen grits his teeth and charges upward: "Seven, eight, nine ......"
This hospital is so elevated that the staircase seems to have two more steps than a normal hospital, Bai Ye then reads, "Nineteen, eighteen, seventeen ......"
Hold on just a little longer, just a little longer and we'll see Bai Ye, Qi Xingchen wipes the sweat off his face, "Eleven, twelve, thirteen ......."
The distance is gradually shortening.
The hallway was filled with the sound of eager footsteps, as well as the sound of heavy panting 丨breathing...
"Hoo...... Phew ...... Paging ......"
On the fifteenth step, Qi Xingchen, rubbing the sweat from his eyes, was about to continue climbing--
Looking up, he saw another man in a blue and white striped hospital gown with his arm in a cast.
That person had eyebrows like the first time, with an angular face. The jawline was narrow and stern, the shoulders were broad, the waist was thin and the legs were long, and the whole person exuded a powerful aggression.
It was the light he had, for eight years, looked up to.
Time stands still in this moment.
They met for the second time after a long time.
After a long moment, Bai Ye held out his hand to him, "It's time to pay back the ring you owe me."
"...... Well," Qi Xingchen sidled her head, tears coming to her eyes, "I'm still."
Love that is imprinted in the soul can change the trajectory of everything established, including memories.
The Xingchen that was left in the abyss has finally returned to his night sky.
