His handsome face was getting closer and closer to her, and the dim street lights came in, with deep and clear contours, long thick eyelashes, and extremely charming peach blossom eyes. The eyes were filled with affection and tenderness that would make people fall into.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Ning clarified: "You misunderstood, I didn't want to get back with you."

Qin Xi frowned, her face became gloomy for a moment. Then she grabbed her coat and covered her head slightly and said coldly: "This is the best, after all, I don't have this plan."

Chu Ning pulled off the clothes on his head. He was already sitting in the driver's seat with a cold face and looked a little inaccessible.

She pursed her lower lip and said gently: "Thank you tonight, I'll go back first."

Put down your coat and open the car door.

Just after walking two steps, the windshield jacket was thrown down and covered her head again, covering her vision in front of her and blocking the rain falling above her head.

Chu Ning pulled off her clothes and looked back. The black Bugatti had turned around and drove into the distance, gradually hiding in the boundless dark night, disappearing.

The rain has not stopped yet, and the wind blows with a bone-like coolness, making people tremble.

Chu Ning had goose bumps on her body. She looked at the coat in her hand and finally put it on her body.

This jacket is rain-proof and wind-proof. It warms up immediately after putting on it, and the breath on his body.

Smelling the familiar smell, something in my heart was filled in an instant, and then was dispersed by the wind the next moment, falling, disappearing into the fog, and unable to catch anything.

She stood there in a daze, took a deep breath, wrapped her coat tightly, and stared at the night color in the distance.

When Chi Jize drove over, he saw Chu Ning's thin figure.

She didn't hold an umbrella and just stood in the rain, looking a little weak, and the huge loneliness and loneliness seemed to swallow her.

He quickly opened the door and got out of the car. He came over with an umbrella and covered her head: "Why do you stand in the rain and be careful of a cold."

He glanced at the extremely ill-fitting black coat wrapped around her, opened his mouth and asked nothing.

When he returned to his residence, Chu Ning took off Chi Yuan's suitcase from upstairs. Chi Jize in the living room heard the noise and hurriedly came forward to catch it.

Getting down the stairs, Chi Jize asked: "Your car was lent to your colleagues. How can I go to the cemetery tomorrow? I'll pick you up?"

Chu Ning smiled and shook her head: "No, I'll just take a taxi."

Chi Jize did not force her and told her: "Take good care of herself. It is not a solution for a girl to stay up late at work. She doesn't need this little money, so don't get tired of her health."

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

After Chi Jize left, Chu Ning felt tiredness spread throughout her body, but she still forced herself to make a cup of lemon and honey water and drank it upstairs to wash up.

The water flowed down the pinhole of the shower, and crystal water droplets splashed everywhere, rippling in the shallow puddles, just like the rainy day when the two broke up seven years ago.

The two had a very unpleasant fight the day before, and they thought it was the last time.

The next morning, she accidentally received a strange number, which was Qin Xi.

He said goodbye for the last time, and the two broke up decently, giving the relationship that was once perfect.

It was raining heavily that day, and it was like a pour. The rain hit the floor tiles, making it annoying.

The two of them stood side by side at the Starbucks door in the center of the business district, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Chu Ning recalled the unhappiness the day before and took the initiative to speak: "Although we broke up, if you have any difficulties in the future and need my help, I will definitely try my best to help you."

Qin Xi pulled the corner of his lips, his face was calm and his words were ridiculed: "Are you quite self-righteous?"

Chu Ning raised her eyes and bumped into the indifference in his eyes: "I don't do that, but I will have nothing to do with each other after breaking up. When I meet again, I'll just be strangers."

For the last time, he held her hand and placed the only umbrella in her palm. Without stopping for a moment, he stepped into the heavy rain.

Chu Ning stood there holding an umbrella, watching his head and clothes quickly wet with the rain, and his back was a little embarrassed.

As if he remembered something, he paused slightly, raised his hand and pulled off the couple's necklace on his neck and threw it to the ground. He walked resolutely and never looked back.

Chu Ning stared at the necklace and watched it gradually being washed away by the turbulent water flow and falling into the sewer next to it, without any trace.

Seven years after separation.

He was reborn.

She was reborn from the fire.

From then on, the two of them will become strangers who have nothing to do with each other.

——

I was short of sleep some time ago and finally took two days off. Chu Ning slept until the afternoon of the next day.

After washing up, she washed the coat that Qin Xi left last night and hung it on the balcony.

I have finished everything I should say last night and I will not meet again.

He didn't leave any contact information, and there is a high probability that he would not have the chance to return the coat to him.

The phone on the coffee table rang on the WeChat phone. She walked back from the balcony, sat on the sofa and clicked on the hands-free one.

Chi Yuan's voice came: "My brother said you lent a car to a colleague. Then why did you go to the cemetery today? It's far from the city. Let my brother send you it? Or should I accompany you?"

"No." Chu Ning's long white legs were folded on the sofa, leaning back, closing her eyes and rubbing her eyebrows, "I'll take a taxi."

Chi Yuan knew what she had decided and couldn't persuade her, and said, "Then you go early. The weather forecast says there will be heavy rain today, the mountain road is rugged, and the vision will be blurry at that time. It will be difficult to walk on the road when it is dark."

"Yeah, I understand." Chu Ning responded casually, a little careless.

——

Qin Xi had insomnia last night and was still sleeping heavily in bed.

The smoke-gray curtains are covered tightly, blocking the bright light outside, and the interior is dim, like a faint blue mist.

The mobile phone screen on the bedside table suddenly illuminated, shaking on the desktop trembling.

A slender and beautiful hand emerged from the crack.

Qin Xi groped and picked up his cell phone, put it in his ear, and couldn't help but get up when he opened his mouth: "Who?"

There seemed to hear his tiredness there, and he laughed casually: "Didn't you get up?"

Qin Xi was too lazy to open her eyes: "Have you been back from a business trip?"

"Just just returned." Yin Sui stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office, playing with a glass of red wine in his hand, and his voice was lazy, "Are you coming out? I'll welcome you."

Qin Xi paused and said, "It's time to go to the cemetery in the afternoon to see a friend."

"That's fine." Yin Sui raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, "Then you can do it first, see you in the old place tonight."

——

Chu Ning's mother's tomb is in Yinjiayuan in the western suburbs. It is located in a mountainous area, remote from the city center, and under good road conditions, it is nearly two hours' drive.

Chu Ning went to the evening, and it was dusk when he arrived at the gate of Yinjiayuan.

Before she got off the car, she greeted the driver: "Master, it's not easy to take a taxi here. Can you wait for me here for a while? It's about twenty minutes."

At this point, there were not many people coming and going in the cemetery, and the driver could not make money even if he went back empty-handed. Naturally, he was happy, but he was afraid that Chu Ning would run away, so he asked her to pay a deposit first.

After giving the money, Chu Ning walked inside with her coat wrapped around her body.

It was not dark yet, but it was a cool breeze. It seemed that it would rain, and the first lingering steps accelerated.

There was a flower seller at the door. The old lady asked Chu Ning to buy a bouquet. Chu Ning shook her head: "No, thank you."

She came here without the habit of sending flowers.

Chu Ning deliberately chose to come here so late to avoid her father Qiao Bangguo, but unfortunately, she tried her best to avoid it.

The middle-aged man is wearing a decent suit and has a fat figure, but he looks haggard in spirit.

Secretary Liang followed by, coming here.

She didn't want to run into him, so she dodged behind an ancient pine tree, but accidentally hit her and saw the flesh wall.

"Sorry." She said softly, then raised her head, and what caught her eyes were those deep and seductive peach blossom eyes.

The man looked at her with a cold face, as if he had unexpectedly met in such a place, his eyes were filled with confusion and surprise, but he did not say a word.

Chu Ning's heartbeat for half a beat, she took a step back and said again: "Sorry."

Qin Xi looked at her face and still didn't speak.

Later, Han Xun greeted her: "Chu Ning, it seems you were in No. 2 Middle School yesterday. I felt like it at that time, but you disappeared in the blink of an eye and thought it was an hallucination."

Chu Ning nodded with a smile, listened to the footsteps of Qiao Bangguo and Secretary Liang, and said, "I have something to do, let's go first."

Leaving in a hurry.

"Brother Xi, don't you go after me?"

Qin Xi didn't say anything, bent down and picked up the flowers that had just fallen to the ground, brushed the dust off, and gently put them back in front of the tombstone.

He squatted down in a half-kneeling posture, put an arm on his knees casually, looked up at the photo of a young man on the monument: "You said before that I wanted to see what the girl I hid in my heart looked like. She just lost and ran into you. If you have the chance in the future, I will bring her over to apologize to you."

Qin Xi laughed at herself: "But you saw it too. She is a turtle shrouded in her head. She hides when she sees me. I don't know if she has the chance to bring her here."

——

There was a bouquet of white roses in front of Chu Mei’s tombstone, which must have been sent by Qiao Bangguo.

White rose is Chu Mei’s favorite flower during her lifetime.
