It is impossible that Qi Jinnian's mood will not be affected as the wedding day approaches, but she has been trying to adjust herself. In the evening, she went to Professor Wei's birthday party.
The birthday gift was prepared by Gu Tianqing, a famous painting. She knew that Professor Wei liked to collect these ancient Chinese calligraphy and paintings. For the rest, she really didn't know what to give. Although she thought it was short, Gu Tianqing said, "I'll take it as a gift. You're just offering flowers to Buddha. Don't talk about it."
Qi Jinnian thought about it and didn't know what to give, so he took the painting.
Luo Jing picked her up by car. Now Luo Jing lives a stable life. Although her father passed away two years ago, it is also a burden on her. She has started a better life.
The birthday party was held in the box of a restaurant. Two large tables were reserved, more than a dozen students and Professor Wei's favorite students were invited. The scene was very lively.
When Qi Jinnian came to the door, she suddenly felt a little timid. Luo Jing took her hand and said, "don't be afraid. All the students are very good. Don't worry. There won't be any gossip. Believe me. "
As expected, as Luo Jing said, although some students were surprised to see Qi Jinnian, they were very friendly. Wei Feng also expressed a strong welcome to her arrival. Qi Jinnian felt a little moist in his eyes, so he quickly gave the gift to Wei Feng: "happy birthday, Professor Wei. I hope you like it."
When Wei Feng saw the scroll, he was a little excited. He opened it and looked at it. After identification, it turned out that it was Qi Baishi's original work. Now he was even more excited. His hands were shaking: "this, this..."
Looking at Wei Feng's expression, Qi Jinnian knew that the painting must be valuable, otherwise he would not have been like this, so he quickly said, "Professor Wei, if you like it, take it back and enjoy it slowly. Is everyone here, I feel a little hungry."
Several students also teased and became hungry. Wei Feng quickly ordered his wife to collect the scroll, and then said with a smile, "here we are, here we are. Let's sit down and eat."
Luo Jing asked Qi Jinnian when others didn't pay attention to him: "what do you give the professor? Look how happy he is."
Qi Jinnian didn't know how to answer, so he said, "a painting, maybe it's what you like. Come on, Luo Jing, I'll give you a cup of tea instead of wine. I haven't seen you for so many years. I'm really happy for you to see you live so well."
"Well, I respect you too. I hope we can all cross the better."
"Well, cheers."
Two people look at each other with a smile, many years of friendship, all in silence.
Friends who didn't feel important at that time may be reunited many years later. When you look back, you will find how valuable the friendship was at that time.
Qi Jinnian looked at the group of people around her. They had appeared in her life. Maybe they didn't play a very important role. Some of them were as fleeting as a meteor. But now they are reunited, how much she missed the years at that time. She also began to think about it. If there was no circle at that time, her life and Gu Tianqing's life were still on the original track, Will she have a baby and graduate to find a suitable job? What should she look like now.
Life has given her too much cruelty, too much cost, people, really can not easily take a wrong step, sad mood suddenly, in front of the glass was suddenly changed into red wine, she did not pay attention to, or drink a cup.
But Qi Jinnian didn't dare to drink too much. She tried it every time, but Rao was so. Later, she also felt a bit drunk.
She got up to go to the bathroom and wanted to wash her face. At this moment, the box door was pushed open, she stepped back two steps, raised her head, and looked at the people outside through the door.
The three-dimensional face with clear outline shows the maturity of years' infection and the calmness precipitated by time experience, as well as a full and familiar feeling.
After the initial shock, Qi Jinnian's mouth slowly raised a smile, gentle greetings: "Miss Lu, long time no see."
Lu Shenxing stood there, covered with wind and rain on his black woolen overcoat. However, as soon as the door opened, what he saw would be such a scene, neither earlier nor a little late. In the boundless wasteland of time, he was tenderly favored by the years, so he just caught up. Listening to her gentle greeting, he drove away his tiredness: "long time no see." In the golden year. "
His profile is more profound than in the past, and his face is more thin and three-dimensional. He has faded away from the past, and his whole body is full of mature man's taste. There are also vicissitudes carved by time. Years have finally tolerated them and let them reunite happily.
When Wei Feng saw Lu Shenxing, he immediately stood up. After a while, a group of people surrounded Lu Shenxing, but Qi Jinnian was standing on the periphery. After a quiet smile, he walked towards the bathroom.
Along the way, she was still in a trance.
After entering the bathroom and pinching herself, she was sure that she had not dreamed.
It's really Lu Shenxing. He's really back. They're reunited.
Red wine has a strong aftereffect. Her cheeks have been dyed with two groups of scarlet, and her eyes are moistened with water. Pregnancy has made her face grow some flesh and looks much better than before.Life, once put her into the bottom of despair, but she came out of nowhere, she found that the world did not abandon her, life is not as bad as imagined, so she said to herself, from now on, every day, we must live happily, because life, there are too many not easy.
After washing her face and fading some wine, she opened the door. Unexpectedly, Lu Shenxing waited for her outside.
He stood against the wall under the dim yellow light, the slender reflection was pulled by the light, slightly lonely.
Qi Jinnian rubbed some swollen temples and was surprised, but he still kept a polite smile: "Hi, Miss Lu, why are you here?"
"I'm waiting for you. Are you ok? I think you're drunk. I'll take you back."
Qi Jinnian laughed and waved: "it doesn't matter. I'm not drunk. I can go back by myself. You'd better go in and accompany the professor. You're late."
As she walked forward, her feet trembled, and the scenery in front of her was a little fuzzy. She shook her head vigorously. Lu Shenxing sighed and reached for her: "I'm not drunk. Let's go."
"Ha ha." Qi Jinnian laughed twice and took his hand back. "No, Miss Lu, I'll go by myself. By the way, has Yunyao come back with you? Is she better? "
