Because I was quite confused and wondered why Sister Lin knew that I was discussing this topic with Yingying.
"Stop looking for me. I'm thousands of kilometers away from you."
Sister Lin chuckled lightly.
"I have a plane ticket tonight. You can come over tomorrow morning."
I said yes.
Then I hung up the phone because I always felt a little embarrassed when she called me brother.
Because in my heart I am Gu Yan, Jiang Xiaolin is like a sister who suddenly appeared out of nowhere to me. As for the feelings... to be honest, they are not very strong right now.
It may take some time to slowly accept it.
In the end, I didn't explain what happened in the mirror to Yingying, I just found an excuse to pass it by.
Yingying did not keep asking, but smiled happily and said to me: "It doesn't matter, just think about it.
As long as you can be well, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little."
This sentence made me feel uncomfortable, so I was silent all the way, and Qingqing said very little. Occasionally, she asked me if I was cold, and if I needed a taxi.
I said no, I wanted to relax, so Qingqing just said yes and walked side by side with me in the early morning of the twelfth lunar month.
It was still dark at that time, and there were no pedestrians on this road. A pair of shadows stepped on the snow and made a "creak, creak" sound.
It seems that just when she arrived in front of the reservoir gate, Qingqing suddenly broke the silence.
"Gu Yan, how long have you been in love with her?"
I didn't know what she meant, so I thought about it and told her, "We were together in junior high school."
"Ah, it's been so long."
Qingqing raised her arms and stretched: "Then you two must have a good relationship. I saw the ice coffin. Xuanbing body training, the pain is not something ordinary people can bear."
I really didn't know that this thing was painful, so I felt a twitch in my heart and quickly turned to look at her.
Qingqing was minding her own business and said: "But there are quite a lot of benefits. When she fully recovers, her foundation will be more solid than ordinary people, and she will be able to practice much faster. Maybe she wants to protect you in the future."
Protect me?
I laughed to myself in my heart, feeling that I was really useless. A grown man should have protected his girlfriend, but now Yingying was thinking about protecting me.
But the expression on Qingqing's face looked normal. She continued to say to me as she walked: "Gu Yan, actually I'm also curious about how you recovered your memory, but you didn't tell Yingying. I think there must be some unspeakable secrets.
, so I won’t ask you either.
But I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel that you are a bit strange after recovering my memory."
She suddenly stopped and turned her head to look at me.
I also stopped and looked into her eyes and asked, "Why did you say that suddenly?"
Qingqing shook her head: "I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm confused. I feel like your temperament is different. It's not like the Gu Yan I know."
I smiled at her somewhat forcefully: "This is normal. You don't think I've always been a joke, do you?"
"No, it has nothing to do with this."
Qingqing suddenly sighed and looked down at the snow under her feet: "I just feel that the distance between you and me is getting farther and farther. I don't know how long I can stay by your side.
Maybe when this matter is over, Yingying comes back to you when I leave."
What she said made me panic.
But I still pretended to have a calm expression, and I said to Qingqing: "No, don't be so nagging. Even if this matter is solved and Yingying comes back, so what, can we just forget about each other? What do you think?
You can come to me anytime."
"Well, let's talk about it then."
After she said this, she walked forward, and I looked at her back from behind.
The No. 5 Reservoir next to me was dim, and occasionally there would be a glimmer of green light. I wanted to rush in directly, find a ghost inside and beat it up.
Because I was really stuck in my heart and wanted to vent.
But Qingqing had already gone far away, so I could only hold back the depression in my heart and chase after her. None of us spoke any more along the way.
There are only two shadows, occasionally intersecting, occasionally parallel, and occasionally overlapping under the halo of the street lamp.
I think Wang Yao works very hard.
When I first entered the house, I saw her sitting cross-legged on the bed in the bedroom, practicing alone in front of the remaining moonlight, but I didn't bother to ask, instead I sat on the sofa and smoked cigarettes one after another.
Maybe she was worried about Qingqing's father, whether he would be in danger, and whether he could get back the Ten Thousand Ghosts Map.
But this is nothing more than lying to myself. I know very well that what really makes me worried is what Qingqing said just now.
Especially when I recalled the day I first met her, until we went to Mount Tai, walking hand in hand at night and watching the sun rise side by side.
I used to think that I was only dependent on Qingqing because she could save my life.
Only now did I suddenly realize that I already have a place for Qingqing in my heart.
I don’t even dare to think about what it would be like if she really left. I don’t dare to think about it. I can only hope that the cigarette in my hand will take away my confusion and worries.
.
I must have smoked five or six cigarettes until Qingqing came over and put it in the ashtray and extinguished it.
"Don't wait, Gu Yan. My dad won't be back for a while. It's already broad daylight. You should go and get some sleep first."
I shook my head: "I'm not sleepy. Let's wait until uncle comes back."
"Then what if he comes back at night? Do you want to stay up during the day again?"
Qingqing sat down next to me and reached out to touch my eyes.
"Go to sleep. You can hardly open your eyes. Go to sleep."
It's really amazing. As soon as she said these words, I suddenly felt my eyes drying up and feeling sleepy.
But then I thought about it and felt something was wrong, because the sleepiness came so quickly, as if I had been given anesthesia.
I forced myself to ask Qingqing if he had drugged me or used magic or something like that.
But in the end, he still couldn't open his mouth, and soon lost consciousness. Only Qingqing's gentle voice echoed in his ears: "Go to sleep, maybe everything will be fine by dawn..."
I had a dream. In the dream, Qingqing's father took back the Ten Thousand Ghosts Picture. While I was sleeping, they put the soul and Yang Shou back into my body.
After doing this, Qingqing opened the door, looked at me deeply, then opened the door and walked out.
A 'bang' on the door suddenly woke me up.
I felt my heart beating fast and cold sweat broke out instantly. I quickly opened my eyes, but was so frightened by the big face of Qingqing's father that I saw her whole body.
"I didn't get the Ten Thousand Ghosts Picture back."
His face was gloomy and his tone was a little heavy.
"What on earth are those devils? I borrowed the power of the totem, but I still couldn't break through the two black shadows, and was forced to run into Xing'an Mountains by that kid."
