However, Li Bao had never regretted that much. During this trip to Yucheng, she did not agree to his proposal.

After being sweet with Qi Shuofeng for a while, his vacation was not over yet. He received a new task assigned by his superiors and left again.

This time, the time away was longer than any other time.

Well, Li Bao has finished his last two years of undergraduate studies and has almost finished his master's degree, but he still hasn't come back.

She thought it was just that the task this time was difficult and it would take more time.

Grow herbal medicine and observe the medicinal properties of each stage of the herb. Herbs are annual, herbaceous are biennial, woody are three years old... ginseng is five years old...

Preparing medicinal materials involves a series of complicated processes.

Observation of the effects of diagnosing and treating the same disease with different prescriptions...

All the knowledge about Chinese medicine is so wonderful, so thought-provoking, and so mind-consuming.

As time passed by this kind of company, Li Bao thought that his character had been tempered to be very patient and calm, but whenever he thought of Qi Shuofeng, he couldn't help but feel impatient.

It has been four years since he left and there has been no news from him.

The calendar was changed one after another, and she would check his WeChat every day. She would wake up at five o'clock every day, thinking that he would be the same as last time, and suddenly he would lie next to her and watch her wake up.

However, every day I open my eyes I am disappointed.

Li Xiaomei couldn't worry about her daughter, so she flew from Nacheng to be with her.

"Li Bao..."

Li Bao: "Mom, it's not like you don't know about his job. No news is good news. Don't worry, he will be back."

Li Xiaomei originally wanted to persuade her to let it go, but she was interrupted as soon as she opened her mouth and swallowed all the words that came to her lips.

I could only accompany her uneasily, but after being with her for a while, I found that she was no different from usual. She worked on projects with the professor every day, and also worked as a doctor in a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. She had to run around to eat, and she was so busy that she couldn't even touch the ground every day.

.

I haven't seen her cry, not even secretly. She has three meals a day, goes to bed early and gets up early, which is a more regular life than she, a middle-aged and elderly person.

Either he is really big-hearted, or he is very patient, or he has tears flowing down his stomach.

Li Bao acted so normal that Li Xiaomei, his own mother, couldn't recognize anything, and finally suggested that he go back to Nancheng to have a look.

"The dendrobium grown in Hengshan is already very large, and the Ganoderma lucidum garden is also good, but ginseng is a bit difficult. The ones in the laboratory are always not as good as those in the north. You have been studying for so many years, and you have been there to guide me."

Li Bao rummaged through the bookshelf and found a yellow leather book and handed it over: "I told you that the environment in Hengshan is not suitable for growing ginseng. If you must, you can use Codonopsis pilosula instead."

The soil quality is wrong. Even if the same soil is transported from the north, how can the climate problem be solved?

Growing medicine is not growing vegetables. Just build a greenhouse and adjust the temperature. The medicine must produce medicinal properties. They are also mugwort. The mugwort from Yudi and the mugwort from Qidi have different ketone content, not to mention other substances.

of.

Li Xiaomei was stunned, so he had to take the medical book from her and flip through it casually.

In fact, she also knew that the land in Hengshan was not good for growing ginseng. She had already tested it, and Master Sui Yu said it was no good after seeing it. Did she say this, or did she want to change her environment and mood?

Li Bao has entered the medical book again, and Li Xiaomei has nothing to do with her. He can only stay temporarily to take care of her three meals a day. Keep an eye on her to eat well and sleep well. At least in this way, her body will be healthy.

When Li Xiaomei closed the study door, Li Bao tightened his grip on the paper and raised his eyes to look at the group photo on the corner of the table.

miss him.

She didn't want to leave Yangcheng because she was afraid that she wouldn't be at home when he came back and he wouldn't be able to find her as soon as possible.

Li Xiaomei lived in Yangcheng for a while, followed by Dai Guanyan, and then Li Chen, who took turns to accompany her.

They all said that they were coming to Yangcheng for vacation and wanted to see her by the way.

After Li Chen went to college, he also dated a girlfriend and brought him to Yangcheng for dinner. As a result, Li Bao took his little girlfriend to eat, drink and go shopping for two days, leaving Li Chen aside, making Li Chen feel like a light bulb.

.

Seeing that she couldn't be more normal, Li Chen felt that this sister might not love Qi Shuofeng as much as he thought. Maybe she was looking for someone to make an excuse and didn't want to be forced to get married. Or maybe, it just took too long and Qi Shuofeng was just in her life.

It became a symbol. She was just used to this kind of life, and it didn't matter whether she could get out of it or not.

Li Chen thought his parents were making a fuss, but she was actually very good, so he took his girlfriend back to Nancheng.

Li Bao sent them to the airport, waved his arm, and turned around neatly.

But when a person stood on the wide platform and looked at the passing vehicles, she became confused.

None of the cars here carried her sweetheart.

The phone rang and it was an unknown number.

Li Bao casually swiped it and hung up when the harassing call was made.

After a few seconds, the call came back.

Li Bao got into the car, looked at his cell phone that had been ringing, and answered the call: "Hello, hello."

"Hello, is this Dai Ziying, Miss Dai?" The voice was low, with an indescribable feeling.

Li Bao suddenly felt a pain in her heart. She gripped the steering wheel tightly and took a deep breath before replying: "Yes, it's me. Are you...?"

"Ms. Dai, are you free now?"

…

An hour later, Li Bao arrived at the small park designated by the other party.

At this time, the aunts who danced in the square in the park took the stereo and went home to cook. The square was empty, except for a few who stayed to play with their children in the sand.

Li Bao narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the child in diapers clumsily shoveling sand into the small bucket.

"Hello, Miss Dai."

Li Bao heard the sound and turned his head to look over.

The other party was wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt and black jeans, very smartly dressed, but this black outfit made her heart pound.

"I am Qi Shuofeng's friend."

"Oh, hello." Li Bao nodded towards him with a smile, "You're from out of town. After Qi Shuofeng's introduction, do you want me to entertain you?"

The other party looked serious, and Li Bao's smile gradually stiffened. She simply suppressed her smile and looked at the other party in silence.

The man exhaled and frowned: "...He said, don't wait for him."

"Hey, what are you talking about? Do you know we are going to get married?"

"Miss Dai."

Li Bao clenched his fingers tightly and said again: "When he comes back this time, we will get married. The marriage application has been approved."

"Miss Dai, Qi Shuofeng disappeared three years ago. We have been looking for him for three years. When he saw me for the last time, he said... that if he can't come back, we will wait for him for three years. If we are sure there is no news, we will

Let me tell you, don’t wait any longer.”

Li Bao opened his lips and his ears were buzzing.

I can understand every word, but why is it so difficult to understand them coherently?

"Oh, three years... there is still a seven-year statute of limitations for a missing persons determination. Do you think he is dead or missing?"
