Ling Qiao smiled, "I understand...I'm sorry, I'm too selfish."
As the sun set, Shu Shu looked at the setting sun that was about to disappear behind Ling Qiao. She suddenly smiled and said absentmindedly: "It's quite beautiful here."
Ling Qiao also smiled and turned to look behind, "Yes, we caught up. Are you interested in getting on the yacht to chase the sunset? I have made arrangements."
Changing the topic is also a good idea, but this time, he respected her and asked her opinion before doing anything.
It was rare that the atmosphere was relieved, and Shu Shu hesitated. On the one hand, she had not gotten over Ling Qiao's cheating, but on the other hand, she was deeply moved by Ling Qiao's affection.
Ling Qiao seemed to notice her concerns and said: "Let's go out to sea to watch the sunset together like friends. Don't think that this means you are forgiving me or promising me anything. Just follow your own heart. If you don't go, then
I'll take you back to the hotel, you're tired too."
Shu Shu looked at Ling Qiao's sincere but disappointed expression and said, "Since you are ready, let's go."
Ling Qiao couldn't help but reveal a bright smile, "Okay, let's go."
After getting on the yacht, Ling Qiao drove at full speed towards the sunset. She sat comfortably on the deck and watched the water on both sides continue to recede. The waves stirred up by the yacht also turned golden under the reflection of the setting sun.
To be honest, Ling Qiao's method was indeed a bit unseemly. He added some sleeping pills to Shu Shu's steak and let her sleep from City T to the Maldives. However, he did not regret this decision that he had been thinking about for half a month.
Decide.
Originally, he wanted to wait downstairs in her apartment after the meeting, but when he saw her at the window of the Green Court Club, he was pleasantly surprised. He thought that maybe God was beginning to take pity on them.
He was calmly controlling the steering wheel from behind, with only the little woman in front of him in his eyes. No matter how long it took for her to forgive him, he would be by her side, chasing her, guarding her, and loving her.
Chasing the sunset is just a momentary romance. The sunset eventually submerged into the sea level, and the yacht gradually slowed down until it drifted in the wind on the sea.
Ling Qiao walked to the front deck and sat next to Shu Shu, "There are many more stars here than in the city. They will come out soon."
Shu Shu looked at the vast sea. She could smell the salty smell of sea water when she took a deep breath. She suddenly felt refreshed. "If it keeps floating, where will the yacht drift to?"
Ling Qiao raised her shoulders and said, "I don't know then. I haven't tried it. I think it will still return to the shore."
Shu Shu closed her eyes and lay down, and Ling Qiao did the same. The two of them didn't speak, they just lay quietly, their bodies drifting with the rise and fall of the sea, as if they were suspended in the air. There was no need to think about anything or worry about anything.
, very comfortable.
"Shu Shu."
"Um?"
"I rarely call your name."
"Um."
"Then I will call you by your name from now on."
"Um."
"Isn't this a good time? Tell the truth!"
"..."
"I know, and so do I. After I calmed down, I carefully thought about many things. She was not fighting alone. Li Changzhi was the military advisor, Zhu Yixiang was the general, Mrs. Zhang, Reporter Zhu, and Deng Zijun were all chess pieces."
Shu Shu quietly listened to Ling Qiao's words, and when she heard Li Changzhi and Mrs. Zhang, she closed her eyes and tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes.
"Three years ago, she sacrificed so much for me and Ling Bai. I was sorry for her. Three years later, I learned the truth. Because I couldn't be responsible for her, I felt guilty and blamed myself. However, she took advantage of this and repeatedly devised
You and me, and I, was stupid enough to be fooled. This is my weakness. I should have listened to you.
I should be cautious about her. I shouldn't be so arbitrary and confident. After so many things happened, I found that in fact, what I missed was only my first love in the past, not Tang Youqing. Shushu, now I no longer feel sorry for her.
The fact that she destroyed my family is enough to offset all the efforts and favors."
Shu Shu opened her eyes to let the sea breeze dry her tears, but, contrary to expectations, her tears started to flow even more.
Ling Qiao knew that she was crying, but he also knew that she didn't want others to see her tears, so he still closed his eyes.
"Shu Shu, today is the happiest and most relaxing day since I separated from you. I'm sorry that I selfishly dragged you into my life, but I just want you to know that I only love you."
Shu Shu turned her back to him and couldn't help but sob softly. She had been suppressing it for too long, too much.
Ling Qiao opened her eyes, stretched out her palm and patted her shoulder gently, "Stop crying, wait a little longer, hold on a little longer, and I will definitely marry you home again."
At night at sea, when you look up, you will see the sky full of stars, bright and clear.
Ling Qiao looked at the time and took out two cakes when it was almost time. These were prepared before. The cakes were not big, only a little bigger than the palm of their hand, but they could be seen to be Shu Shu's favorite flavor, green.
The pure fragrance of the matcha and the rich chocolate are both pleasing to the eye.
"Are you hungry? It's twenty-three-fifty now. Let's eat one first, and then eat the other one at midnight."
Shu Shu was speechless, "Don't tell me the reason why we didn't have dinner was because we had to deal with these two cakes."
"Yeah, if you can't finish eating, pack it back."
"But don't you hate sweets the most?"
Ling Qiao said with emotion: "Life is already so bitter. If I don't eat something sweet, I'm afraid I will forget the taste of sweetness."
He smiled comfortably and took the chocolate cake, "Thank you, I want to eat it from today to tomorrow."
"Haha, that's okay. It's too windy here, so I can't even hold it down. Eat quickly, I'm starving."
Shu Shu opened his mouth and took a bite, "You know you're hungry, I thought you didn't know."
Ling Qiao looked at her, her mouth was full of cake, and there was a lot of chocolate powder on her lips. She must have tasted the sweetness, and the sweetness could make her laugh. He was emotional, with tears in his eyes,
He also followed Shu Shu's example and opened his mouth wide and took a bite of the matcha cake. It was so sweet, so soft and greasy, but he liked it very much.
Shu Shu couldn't help laughing when she saw him devouring his food without any sense of aesthetics, "You're really hungry."
"Well, I want to eat something chocolate-flavored."
"No, you have such a dirty mouth."
"Am I dirty?" Ling Qiao stuck out her tongue and licked it, then looked at her with a smile, "You are not the same."
Shu Shu immediately realized that she was also so imageless. She wanted to wipe it with her hands, but she couldn't wipe it with both hands standing on the cake.
"Hahaha, don't worry about it, just eat. Filling your stomach is the best way."
"Well, happy birthday!"
"Thank you," Ling Qiao raised her arm and looked at the time, "It's just past midnight. Happy birthday."
