Shi Ting paused for a while, then suddenly looked up: "How about we make a bet?"
"How to bet?" His voice was obviously full of uncertainty. As long as it related to Tong Yao, he had a deep feeling of powerlessness. From the bottom of his heart... he was not sure of winning.
"I thought you would ask me what the bet is?" Shi Ting said casually, scratching the top of her head with a helpless look on her face, pondering for a few seconds, then jumped off the hood of the car and opened the door, "See you tomorrow!"
"Hey!" Before Qin Qiaotian could call her, her compact sports car flew out and passed by him in an instant, raising a gust of cold wind...
How to bet?
What's the stakes?
He didn't know anything! Regarding Tong Yao, he didn't flinch at all, but he was deeply uneasy...
villa
As the night got darker, Qin Muyuan stood at her door. After waiting for a long time, he didn't see her opening the door and coming out. He couldn't help but frowned: Has she been sleeping? Don't you feel hungry?
After hesitating for a long time, he finally went downstairs to get a piece of pudding and knocked on her door.
No one answered, so he naturally wanted to open the door and go in, but when he touched the door lock, his body froze - she... locked the door?!
When he came out just now, he just closed the door for her, but now the door is locked from the inside! The only explanation is - she got up and locked the door on purpose?!
They were the only two people at home, so her rejection was so obvious.
My heart can't help but feel a dull pain.
It turned out that some injuries were caused, and all the superficial indifference and forgiveness were just his self-deception... He had hurt her after all.
Barriers are inevitable
So, that night, Qin Muyuan stood silently at her door for a long, long time...
Early next morning
Tong Yao woke up from hunger! Looking at the sunlight coming in, she knew she had to get up...
After washing up in the room, she struggled with the door for a long time, then took a deep breath, opened the door in one go, and saw an empty room - extremely quiet, without any life.
No need to face Qin Muyuan? She couldn't help but feel happy
"woke up?"
"Ah!" A deep male voice suddenly came from the side. Tong Yao was startled and screamed. He turned around and saw Qin Muyuan before exhaling and smiled awkwardly.
"Breakfast is on the table, don't forget to eat it." Qin Muyuan didn't have much expression on his face. He raised his feet and hugged her gently. "I'm going to work. If you need anything, you can call me."
After saying that, he let go of him neatly, turned around and walked downstairs.
This confused Tong Yao: Was he waiting here on purpose to tell her that he was going to work? Or was it a coincidence?
However, the moment Qin Muyuan let her go, an unspeakable sense of loss still arose in her heart: He just left like this? Is there nothing else... to say?
This kind of alienation makes people feel like strangers
She watched Qin Muyuan's back going downstairs, but she didn't know that his indifference was due to her rejection! He didn't want to frighten her, she wanted to hide... Then he wouldn't force it.
He gave her time and space
But, she doesn’t understand! Her loss and escape can only be explained by a simple sentence: ‘Women are really complex creatures’
"Wait a minute!" Seeing him walking to the door, Tong Yao finally couldn't help but shout out. He didn't even bother to pull on his slippers, and quickly went downstairs to catch up with him.
Qin Muyuan stopped and turned around. When he saw her running towards him, his eyes softened.
Want a goodbye hug?
"I don't think I can stay in this country like this." But she stopped five steps away, twirled her fingers and spoke with difficulty, telling her the decision she had been thinking about for most of the night last night.
Qin Muyuan's eyes were slightly cold
"You said last time that you transferred your student status. Today... I want to go to a few universities," she said in a low voice. "I want to rely on my own ability to find a university that wants me to transfer to. I have another university."
You can graduate in..."
"Yes." Qin Muyuan nodded, his expression softened, "It's up to you to decide."
He has no demands on this kind of thing. She can do whatever she wants. He won't interfere, as long as she doesn't think about returning to China...
"Aren't you going to take the postgraduate entrance examination, Miss Tong? Then what are you going to do here at this time?"
She visited several schools in the morning, and the one she was asked the most was this question. A student who was about to graduate soon, so rashly turning around like this, for the school, "acceptance" didn't mean much.
When she was rejected by the third school, Tong Yao finally became decadent and sat on the side of the road in despair. She had to admit: she was really ordinary, useless, and powerless...
"I don't quite understand. There is a shortcut, why don't you take it?" A lazy voice sounded, Shi Ting walked over and naturally sat down on the stone steps next to her...
