I still love you

Her tone was gentle and especially polite.

I was slightly surprised, "May I ask who you are?"

Just as my thoughts were immersed in my sorrowful past, Qiao Chenfei's foster mother's voice rang beside my ears, "Chen Fei came to me a few days ago and took away all your things from me. When he left, he was in a very bad mood. So I called you and asked if something had happened. Did you guys quarrel? "

Arguing?

I started, confused by her words.

"Auntie, are you mistaken?"

Qiao Chenfei's foster mother seemed to be in a daze, and asked me, "What, is it not?"

What was going on? Didn't she know that Qiao Chenfei had married Yvonne two years ago?

It shouldn't be. At that time, Qiao Chenfei had not met the Lou Family personally and was even the son of the Qiao Family.

"Oh, no, no. We did have a small grudge. " I think that something must have happened between there and then, and I remembered that he had gone missing. Thus, I decided to make the mistake and asked, "Aunt, did Chen Fei say anything before he left? Did he say where he was going? "

"Are you sure?" Qiao Chenfei's foster mother said, then thought about it and said, "Oh yeah, I heard him book a plane ticket on the phone, it seems to be to Correspondence City."

"Correspondence City?" I was startled.

"Right." Qiao Chenfei's foster mother said with certainty, and asked again: "What's wrong? Aren't you two together? "

"No." "He told me he was going on a business trip, but I didn't know it was Correspondence City."

Qiao Chenfei's foster mother said with relief, "It's good that you guys are fine. It's not easy for the two of them to get back together, so you must cherish it. Don't ever quarrel again, it hurts your feelings. "

Listening to her persuasive words, my eyes began to burn. "Alright, I understand, Auntie."

She didn't notice that my voice was a little choked with emotions. She smiled and said, "Then why don't you go back and busy yourself? Come back to eat with Chen Fei when you're free, I haven't seen you for a long time as well."

"Alright."

After hanging up, I immediately booked a plane ticket.

The reason I was so shocked when I heard "Correspondence City" just now was because that was the place where Qiao Chenfei and I would travel from. It was also there that he asked me to marry him.

I don't know what he was doing there, or why he went back to his foster mother's house to get what we had, but I had a strong feeling it had something to do with me.

Before I went to the airport, I called Lou Shaotang and told him that I was going to Letter City. But I didn't say that I was going to look for Qiao Chenfei, I only said that I was on a business trip.

It was already 8 PM when they arrived at Correspondence City. As soon as they exited the airport, they could see the city's landmark — the South Mountain Tower. The moment Qiao Chenfei passed by, it surged into his mind like a tide.

I squinted at the tall tower, the tower's lights were as dazzling as they were three years ago, but Qiao Chenfei and I could never go back.

This was what they meant by 'human nature is not human nature'.

Raising his head to take a deep breath, he let the cold wind seal the bitterness in his heart. I called Qiao Chenfei again, still with the phone shut down. So I sent him a message that I was in Correspondence. Although he didn't know if he would turn it on, he could only give it a try.

After reaching my hotel room, I put down my luggage and went to take a bath. Just as I finished washing up, my cell phone's WeChat beep sounded.

I quickly opened it and saw that it was indeed Qiao Chenfei's. He told me to go to Nanshan Pagoda now, and he would wait for me there.

I immediately changed my clothes and took a taxi.

There weren't many people in Nanshan Pagoda who were close to midnight, and it was also winter. At this time, other than the one or two small stalls selling souvenirs, there were only a few people who looked like university students.

They should both be lovers, standing in front of a stall selling concentric locks, carefully selected. Looking at their faces brimming with blissful smiles, it was as if I saw myself and Qiao Chenfei three years ago.

We were like them then, full of hope and vision for their future. It was just that things were unpredictable, and in the end, it became a dream that would never come true.

My heart started to beat faster and I quickly looked away to search for Qiao Chenfei's figure. When I saw the tall man standing in front of Yue Lao, I immediately walked over to him.

"Chen Fei." I called out softly from behind him.

Qiao Chenfei's body trembled slightly as he slowly turned around.

I was startled to see his face. His face was haggard, his eyes bloodshot, and the stubble on his lips made him look even more decadent.

What had provoked him to become like this?

"Chen Fei, what's wrong? What happened? " I asked him worriedly.

"Xiao Ying, why?" He stared at me with sadness in her eyes.

I was stunned.

At this moment, he was exuding a strong sense of sadness, a complete contrast to the look and pride he had shown the other day in the hotel when he had denounced me.

Xiao Ying. Why is he calling me Xiao Ying?

Staring at him suspiciously, I asked, "Chen Fei, what are you talking about? "Why what?"

I thought he was perverted, perversely unsettling, and even a little afraid.

"Why have we come to this? Aren't we very much in love? "

"Chen Fei, you, what happened to you?"

Seeing my surprised face, Qiao Chenfei laughed at himself, "Do you still remember this place, Xiao Ying?" He looked past me. "We made a wish here, always, always."

I followed his gaze and felt my heart tighten.

It was a fence chain where he and I had once hung the telepathic lock.

The scene from that day instantly appeared in his mind …

"Xiao Ying, what do you think we should do?" Qiao Chenfei asked me smilingly as he held the lock in one hand and the carving knife in the other.

I didn't have time to think about it before he said, "Inscribed forever. Love forever."

My heart was filled with sweetness as I nodded. "Alright."

After hanging up the lock, Qiao Chenfei flung his hand and tossed the key far away. He held my face in his hands and gently pecked at it, saying, "Xiao Ying, we will always love each other. No one will be able to separate us."

I kissed him back, and with a happy grunt I snuggled into his arms and we gazed out into the beautiful night.

"And that year." "After we received our first month's salary, we bought a cake together. Do you still remember the words that were mounted on the cake?" he asked me.

I remember.

How could I forget?

But I don't want to say it, it's all over.

Seeing that I didn't speak, and thought that I didn't remember, Qiao Chenfei seemed to want to recall my memories and reminded me: "It's Qiao Chenfei, Tu Ying.

"Chen Fei."

I wanted to stop him, but he was too deep in the mire of his memories to stop himself. "Do you remember the first time we kissed? Under a cherry tree behind the library. It was a sunny day, and the wind was soft, and the cherry petals were falling on us like a drizzle, and I remember what you were wearing, too, white fringed shirts, blue jeans, and sneakers. "

I did not forget what he had said, but I would no longer deliberately remember it. It had only become a part of my life, and I might occasionally take it out to remember him, but it was definitely not for him.

Those years, those events, and his love for him, had long since worn away in these three years.

I don't understand why he suddenly said this to me. Didn't he hate me? Why did he reminisce about the past? Why was he so sad?

At this time, his sorrowful voice sounded out once again, "Xiao Ying, tell me, what did I do wrong? Why can't we be together? "

I looked at him with misty eyes, and he was already in tears.

"You're not wrong." Restraining my sorrow, I wiped away my tears and choked with sobs. "I don't seem to be wrong either. "We were not wrong. We were just defeated by reality, defeated by fate, defeated by time."

Little Yu's illness was an accident, no one would have expected it. Maybe this was an order from the heavens, and was destined to prevent Qiao Chenfei and I from being together.

"I can't accept this!" Listening to me say this, Qiao Chenfei was like an injured little beast, growling out in pain.

"Xiao Ying, I still love you!" He suddenly hugged me, hard and hard, as if she were trying to put me into him.

"I was amazed." Chen Fei, you are not … "

"No, no!" As if he knew what I was going to say, he immediately interrupted me and cried, "I did hate you and I came back to take revenge on you, but after we got back together, I found out that I can't hate you anymore. I still love you, even more than before."

"" His words stunned me, my mind blanked out for a few seconds, but I quickly recovered. "Didn't you and Yvonne get married? How can you say you love me?"

I was a little annoyed. I felt that his actions were a bit shameless.

"Yes, I married her. But I didn't love her at all! I hate her, hate her! " He let go of me, grabbed my shoulder, and roared, his eyes blazing.

"Why?"

I gasped in surprise. I'd never seen him look so angry. Even if I'd hurt him that way, his hatred hadn't been a tenth of what it was now.

The light in his eyes dimmed, and he lowered his arms. "Because …" He paused, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Because I killed someone."
