Song Jia Ren looked at him with misty eyes, as if she had never met him. She had always known that he had a pair of enchanting and captivating Peach Blossom Eyes, but she had never expected that he would one day look at her with such a cold gaze.
The picture he had just burned was nowhere to be found, so he responded in the most direct way.
When she thought that all of this was merely her own mistaken belief, Song Jia Ren cried her heart out. She never thought that time would truly pass and she remembered every single time, every oath made by her, she felt extremely sad, and even found it hard to accept.
When he said he wanted to go home, there was a trace of urgency on his face. There was no need to guess to tell that he wanted to go back and see Sang Xiao Yu.
Song Jia Ren's heart was about to break. They had known each other since they were fifteen, and had been foreign lands for four years, but she had never forgotten about him. She had even relied on her love of him to wander the New York alone. With the last glimmer of hope, she threw herself into his arms.
Ignoring the crowded streets, she threw away her pride and hugged him around the neck.
Her close contact with him was actually a luxury for Song Jia Ren. The smell of tobacco on his body and his masculine scent made her yearn for him day and night, hoping to regain all the beautiful memories from the past.
His almond-shaped eyes were blurred, and his thin lips were just inches away from each other …
Qin Si Nian's body instantly stiffened.
Song Jia Ren could also feel it, and could tell that he did not push himself away. His heart could not help but be overjoyed, and he could not help but raise his head.
However, just as she was about to touch his lips, Qin Si Nian suddenly jerked his head away.
The kiss that was supposed to happen in the next second missed, and all of the charm and warmth instantly disappeared, followed by embarrassment and unbearable pain.
Song Jia Ren was startled, trembling as she shouted, "Wh-Si Nian?"
Qin Si Nian maintained his stooped posture as he stared at her with his peach blossom eyes. Without changing his emotions, he spoke in a low voice, "Beautiful girl, don't make me look down on you!"
"Si Nian..." Song Jia Ren's body trembled.
Realizing what he had done, his face burned as if he had been slapped in the face. The hand tightly wrapped around his neck was powerless to let go.
Song Jia Ren finally recognized that they were finished!
She stared at him for a long moment, then lowered her head and picked up the cake box at her feet. Her face was wet with tears, her red lips quivered, and she came out of the car choking to the point where she couldn't say a word.
When the car door closed, Song Jia Ren turned his head back and saw his tall and straight back to the driver's seat. He was so anxious, but also so cold and merciless.
Qin Si Nian did not stay any longer. After sitting back in the car, he had already started up the engine, and the black banquets once again drove through the night, leaving behind only the exhaust of the cars leaving.
After travelling about 500 meters, they came across a red signal light at the intersection.
Qin Si Nian took out the black screen phone from his storage. Just as he was about to continue searching for the charging line, he suddenly heard a loud noise, which seemed to be accompanied by a lot of noise from a flute.
He inadvertently glanced at the reverse mirror, and saw that there were a lot of people gathered in the middle of the street in front of the hotel that had just left.
Voices and vehicles were in disarray, but they could still make out that it seemed to be a car accident.
"Oh my god, someone got hit!"
Many drivers in cars that were waiting for a red light at the intersection also looked back in curiosity. Qin Si Nian frowned, but just as he was about to retract his gaze, his pupils suddenly tightened up.
His heart sank.
The moon hung high in the night sky, curved like a hook. It was destined to not be a peaceful night.
Life was like this, nothing would change just because of what had happened. The earth would still function normally, just like the morning sun rising every day.
Sang Xiao Yu raised the face that was buried between her hands and looked out the window absentmindedly. The morning light shone through the white gauze, not leaving a single corner of the hall behind.
She raised her hand and rubbed her face. After sitting like this all night, all the bones in her body seemed to have gone out of joint.
The house was still quiet, just like last night when she came back. The only sounds that could be heard were her slow breathing and her heartbeat.
Suddenly, a sound came from the hallway. It was the sound of a key turning in the lock.
Sang Xiao Yu's entire body tensed up, as if she was about to face a great enemy.
The anti-theft door opened, then the sound of steady footsteps, shoes changing, and then the figure's figure slowly came into view. She clenched her hands tighter and tighter on her knees.
Qin Si Nian's right hand rested on his cervical spine, his handsome face had a tired expression, and if one looked closely, there were thin lines of blood on the whites of his eyes.
He had made the earliest flight yesterday morning, and after flying back, he had performed a few surgery without stopping. He had almost no time to catch his breath, and last night was sleepless night …
Qin Si Nian caught sight of her from the corner of her eyes and her footsteps paused, "Mrs. Qin, why are you sitting there like an idiot?"
Sang Xiao Yu's breathing stagnated, not wanting to let herself overestimate herself over such a form of address, she sat on the sofa for the whole night. Other than the numbness of her joints, her throat was a little dry and sore.
The hand on Qin Si Nian's neck was lowered, and he saw her sitting on the sofa with her head lowered ever since he entered the room. He only raised her head to look at him once, probably because he was carrying the light on his back.
His heart started to pound in panic. After a pause, he said, "Last night when we left the hospital, there was an accident. The beauty, she …"
Sang Xiao Yu suddenly interrupted him, "You beast, you don't have to bother telling me these things!"
Because she already knew everything.
Qin Si Nian frowned, then raised his eyebrows again, walking straight up to her, one of his arms was on the armrest of the sofa beside her, his peach blossom eyes were bright and mischievous, "Didn't I say to not let you knock over the vinegar vat?"
His expression and eyes were extremely low, and every time he spit out a word, his breath would brush against her face, which was hot and familiar.
Gritting his teeth, he was able to remain calm.
"You beast, I had something to ask you, but it seems like it's no longer necessary!" Sang Xiao Yu raised his hand and stretched it towards the table, stiffly touching the white paper and black text on the paper for two seconds, then handed it over to him, "This is for you."
"What?" Qin Si Nian frowned.
Sang Xiao Yu saw him extend his hand to receive it, and after taking a deep breath, he said, "I've already signed my name on it!"
