After Bai Xiaofan went on a business trip, Qiao Xi's life continued as usual.

Two o'clock and one line, at home, at work, and occasionally go out to have a meal with Shang Jing.

I thought that after Bai Xiaofan left, I would live a very free and comfortable life. However, when one person suddenly disappeared from the huge house, it felt even more empty.

And the traces left by that person became more and more intense and obvious.

Qiao Xi had to admit the fact that, unknowingly, she had become accustomed to Bai Xiaofan. And Bai Xiaofan seemed to have really... entered her life.

She was very unwilling.

But, there is nothing I can do to change anything.

Only then did I realize that habits are really scary and overbearing, monopolizing all senses.

But she got into the habit and couldn't quit it for a while.

Therefore, when Bai Xiaofan left quietly, his life seemed to have lost a certain focus and was lost.

Just like when she was with Yan Chu, suddenly, the person who had been with her for ten years no longer wanted her, and then she lost her direction.

A whole year...

However, unlike Yan Chu, Bai Xiaofan will come back and come back to her side.

However, Bai Xiaofan had only left for a while, and she was so lost. What about the future?

In the future, if he doesn't want her anymore, will she have to spend another year, or longer, to quit someone?

Qiao Xi thinks this phenomenon is very dangerous!

However, every aspect of her life made her unable to grasp the focus. Obviously, before she was with Bai Xiaofan, she had survived alone. But why was she so uncomfortable when he left?

For example, during dinner, she always took out a pile of meat, washed it, cut it, and was about to fry it, when she remembered that Bai Xiaofan was not there.

Then, she stuffed these things back into the refrigerator, took out the instant noodles that had been with her for a year, and hurriedly made her own dinner.

In the morning, she woke up from the cold. The bed was too big and it was not warm to sleep alone.

At noon, without Bai Xiaofan dominating her time and without his checking phone calls, she could have dinner with Shang Jing again.

Life is still that kind of life, but she lives it very absent-mindedly...

Shang Jing teased her that Bai Xiaofan had only been away for a few days, but she fell in love with him in a long distance so quickly.

She smiled, but in fact, it was not a long-distance lovesickness. She just really relied on Bai Xiaofan, more than she imagined.

In fact, she doesn't like to rely on people, and it's hard for her to rely on someone. But once she does become dependent on someone, she will be stubborn.

Just like Yan Chu. In the past, she relied on him a lot.

But who knows, so many things will happen next?

Therefore, she has no confidence in Bai Xiaofan, and has never had confidence. He should like her, but he is not in love yet, right?

***

On Friday, get off work early.

After get off work, Qiao Xi saw that it was not dark yet and planned to walk around. She did not want to go back to her home where she was alone for the time being.

Central Park has remained the same for ten years. However, many of the facilities inside have been renovated.

Qiao Xi came, but the other person left. However, they were only half a minute apart, but they still missed her.

Qiao Xi found a bench and sat down, and happened to see a pair of middle school students playing on the swing. They must be a young couple.

I saw the boy pushing the girl sitting on the swing from behind, swinging back and forth, accompanied by their young laughter.

"Have you gained weight again?"

"No."

"Look, I can hardly push you anymore."

"What did you say!"

"No, it's nothing." The boy immediately kissed the girl on the cheek and said very greenly: "I like you to be fatter."

Seeing this, Qiao Xi smiled and couldn't help but think of her and Yan Chu. They had a date in this park before, played on the swing there, and had a quarrel like that. Finally, he kissed her.

, she will be happy again.

But the sweeter the memories, the more they looked back, the more mottled and sad they became. So, Qiao Xi got up, patted her clothes, and left.

Sweet love only belongs to others, not to her.

On the way, she passed a large flower shop. Qiao Xi saw orange flowers at the door, each one strong and green. There were many varieties and colorful flowers, which made people feel better.

Qiao Xi likes orange blossoms, very much, very much. Bai Xiaofan doesn't know this.

In the past, Yan Chu also gave her a few pots of orange flowers, but later, he refused to give them to her again. He said he didn't want people to think that he often visited graves...

Qiao Xi walked over and knelt down to look at the orange flowers. The flower seller was very enthusiastic and introduced the varieties to her one by one: white white pine needles, yellow cloud celestial beings, purple xiangluo belt, light green

Green waves, peach-colored red peonies...

The more Qiao Xi listened to it, the more she liked it. She almost smiled crookedly at the corner of her mouth and wished she could move them all back home.

At this time, the man in the flower shop brought out a large vase with elegant flowers in it, which made Qiao Xi lose her mind for a moment.

"Little girl, these are begonia flowers. They just arrived. Do you want a bouquet?"

Begonia flower, also known as Jieyu flower.

It is Yan Chu's favorite flower, but few people know about it, because he thinks the name of the flower is too girly, and he is embarrassed to let others know it, except her.

"Okay, please help me wrap a bunch."

"Okay, a guy bought a bunch just now. Look, he left not long ago."

The flower seller pointed in a direction, and Qiao Xi looked over. Indeed, there seemed to be a man holding a bouquet of flowers, and then he got into the taxi.

The whole process only lasted a few seconds, and Qiao Xi couldn't see it clearly. Then, she smiled disapprovingly and looked away.

Seeing the aunt wrapping the bouquet in colorful paper, she quickly said: "I'm using it to worship, so I'll use white colored paper."

"Eh? It's worship again? Now, is it popular to use crabapple flowers to worship?" The aunt muttered strangely.

As a result, I didn't buy the orange flowers, but I bought a bouquet of white begonia flowers.

Qiao Xi thought, could this be considered fate?

Forget it, now that the flowers have been bought, let's go and see Yan Chu. It's time to see him. She left his funeral too hastily last time.

***

Qiao Xi stood for a long time before taking a taxi. When she arrived at the cemetery, the sky was already dark, half blue and half orange, which was really beautiful.

Qiao Xi held a bouquet of crabapple flowers and thought for a moment before confirming the location of Yan Chu's tombstone. It was very high up and had to go up many steps.

Qiao Xi lowered her head and counted silently in her mind as she climbed a step. This was a little game she often played when she was young.

Yan Chu said that she was boring, but she just liked it.

However, what Qiao Xi never knew was that when she lowered her head, she was bound to miss someone, someone.

The person she just passed by...

Qiao Xi climbed up the ninety-nine small steps before arriving at Yan Chu's tombstone. It's amazing, isn't it?

In the past, she would wait for Yan Chu's ninety-nine seconds, but now, she climbed the ninety-nine steps to see him.

What's even more amazing is that on Yan Chu's tombstone, she saw a bouquet of white interpretation flowers that was exactly the same as the one in her hand.

It was placed quietly on Yan Chu's tombstone. Under the sunset, the white petals were stained with a faint blood red.

Suddenly, Qiao Xi's breath was suffocated, and there was a faint pain in her chest. She quickly turned back and looked down——

It was already very late now, and there was no one in the cemetery, so Qiao Xi only saw a man wearing a long black coat. She wanted to know more clearly, but that man turned his hand back and put on his coat.

Jumpsuit hat.

Qiao Xi's sight was strictly blocked, and then, the man left.

Who is that person?

Qiao Xi didn't know.

However, maybe he was a friend of Yan Chu during his lifetime? A friend who knew that he liked Jie Yuhua.

It took a while for Qiao Xi to come to her senses, and then she placed the bouquet of flowers in her hand next to another bouquet of flowers.

Then, she knelt down and looked at Yan Chu's photo with complex eyes, his handsome face, and his warm smile. She seemed to still be able to feel the dazzling brilliance under his eyes.

"Long time no see, Yan Chu."

Qiao Xi sniffed and said with a thick nasal sound: "I don't want to see you in this way. If possible, I hope a miracle will happen and you are still alive. No matter where you are, as long as I know

If you are still in this world, then I will definitely feel a lot more at ease."

Then, I will not disturb you, nor will I go to see you again. As long as I know that you are still alive, that is enough.

There's nothing like this.
