Jian Na was choosing clothes in a women's clothing store with her best friend. Speaking of which, her coming here today was completely unexpected. Normally, she would never come here because this mall is more than an hour away from where she lives.
Even when I go shopping with this best friend, I usually make appointments in the city rather than in the suburbs.
"Nana, what do you think of this dress?"
Bei Yuanshan stood in place and turned around, looking in the mirror and asking for Jian Na's opinion.
"Well, this one is not bad, but I still think the one just now is better, and that one is more elegant."
The relationship between the two of them is very good, Jian Na doesn't need to pretend to laugh, she points out her shortcomings bluntly.
"Really? When you say that, it seems like it is true!"
Bei Yuanshan pinched the hem of her skirt and fiddled with it a few times. Then she turned around and suddenly found that her best friend was missing!
"Hey? Waiter, where is my friend?"
The waiter standing nearby pointed outside.
"Your friend seemed to have seen someone just now, and then suddenly ran out."
"Who did you see?"
Bei Yuanshan repeated what the waiter said and murmured.
"No way."
She knew Jian Na very well. She was a person who paid great attention to etiquette. Even if it was an urgent matter, Jian Na would not leave without saying hello.
Immediately, Bei Yuanshan had no intention of continuing shopping, so she hurriedly changed her clothes and walked out of the store.
On the other side, Jian Na stared blankly at the man not far away.
That movement, that back, that walking posture, even if she didn't see the face, she knew she didn't recognize the wrong person.
But why did he appear here?
Shouldn't he still be serving his sentence in Beihai Prison?
‘Huh?’
'Isn't that Zheng Qiudong?'
'Why hasn't he left yet?'
'And why are they two here?'
For a moment, Jian Na's mind was filled with thoughts, and the doubts in her heart were greater than the joy.
Suddenly, Liu Liangti seemed to notice something and turned around to take a look.
Snap!
When he saw Jian Na, he was so surprised that the clothes hanger he was holding fell to the ground. Liu Liangti turned his head and glanced at Li Jie, his eyes seemed to be questioning.
Did you call her here?
It was such a coincidence. Liu Liangti knew Jian Na just as Jian Na knew himself. This mall was definitely not one of Jian Na's usual places.
Li Jie shrugged, it was self-evident what he meant.
This time it really wasn’t arranged by him!
Accident, completely unexpected!
If he wanted to arrange it, there was no need to do so. It was better to let both people know about it in this way.
Bei Yuanshan searched around for a while before she found Jian Na. Just when she was about to speak, she suddenly saw that Jian Na's mood was a little not right.
Follow the other person's gaze.
'Why is he here?'
This question also arose in Bei Yuanshan's mind. Of course she knew who the person not far away was.
Liu Liangti, Jian Na’s ‘fiancé’.
The two of them had originally discussed getting married, but something unexpected happened. Liu Liangti's daughter fell ill with a strange disease, and a series of things happened after that.
Then, the marriage between the two people ended.
"Nana, let's go!"
Bei Yuanshan dislikes Liu Liangti very much. If it weren't for his "beginning with chaos and ending with abandonment", why would their Nana not get married until now?
People who have been chasing Jian Na over the years have been like crucian carp crossing the river, but she has never been able to let go of Liu Liangti in her heart.
That’s why I’m single now!
Bei Yuanshan didn't pull even once!
Two pulls failed!
Not only was it not pulled, but Jian Na took a small step forward!
"Nana!"
"Over the years..."
"Shanshan, please go back first, I will take care of this matter."
Before Bei Yuanshan could finish what she said, Jian Na blocked her words.
Bei Yuanshan looked at Liu Liangti not far away, and then at Jian Na standing beside him. Their expressions were exactly the same. They were obviously very excited, but they tried their best to restrain themselves.
"well."
Sighing, Bei Yuanshan left the scene silently.
The two just looked at each other without saying a word. Finally, Liu Liangti took the first step, adjusting his emotions as he walked.
Even though there are thousands of words in my heart, only one sentence comes out in the end.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Hearing these words, Jian Na couldn't help but look stunned, then reached out to pull her hair around her ears and smiled slightly.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Then, the scene became silent again for a while.
"You...why are you here?"
After a while, Jian Na asked pretending to be calm, but the moment she stuttered betrayed her.
"bawl."
Liu Liangti pursed his lips, heading towards Li Jie.
"This little brother of mine got me medical parole."
"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Jian Na's eyes, and she immediately smiled lightly to hide her emotions: "It's good, it's good. It's good to be released on medical parole."
Liu Liangwen smiled gently: "Really? It seems pretty good."
Not far away, Li Jie saw this scene and couldn't help but shook his head secretly. These two people, really, they clearly care about each other in their hearts, but they still want to show that they don't care.
How come one is in his forties and approaching fifty, and the other is in his thirties, still look like an angry child?
However, Li Jie had no intention of getting involved, so it was better to let things take their own course.
At the same time, the awkward atmosphere at the scene continued.
"When did you get released on medical parole?"
"I just finished the formalities today."
"Really? So...how are you... lately?"
Jian Na suddenly changed her words mid-sentence. She was originally going to ask, ‘Then why didn’t you inform me?’ But she swallowed the words as they reached her lips.
"Okay, everything is good."
"Then you can continue shopping. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
After saying that, Jian Na turned around and left.
step!
Two steps!
…………
Five steps!
…………
Ten steps!
…………
Jian Na kept thinking about the steps in her mind, and she really wanted to hear some movement behind her.
Even if it’s just the word ‘Hey’!
However, there was nothing. The other party neither called his name nor called her.
Fifteen steps!
…………
Thirty steps!
…………
Jian Na just counted the steps mechanically until she walked out of the mall, but she still didn't get the result she wanted.
Inside the mall.
Li Jie walked up to Liu Liangti and said calmly: "Aren't you going to take a look?"
The expression on Liu Liangti's face was changing, sometimes firm, sometimes confused, very complicated. Finally, he slowly shook his head.
"No, let's continue shopping for clothes."
"Um."
During the next shopping trip, although Liu Liangti looked very calm, based on his shopping performance, it was not difficult to find that his mind was not on buying clothes for a long time, and he did not know where he went.
