759 The last step _1

Yu Qiu’s eyes flickered slightly. He leaned over and picked up the cigarette box on the coffee table. He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled a thin white smoke. He swallowed and asked, ” then why did you come to me? ”

“You want me to regret it and cry my heart out to you, then be filial to your mother and son and have a happy ending?”

“I’m here today to bid you farewell.” Xie tingxi’s calm voice was emotionless. He had never been as calm as he was now.

“When you abandoned me back then, I would be lying if I said that I didn’t hate you. Especially when the Xie family was on the verge of collapse, I really hated you. I hated you so much that I wanted to bite off every piece of flesh from you. It’s said that a child is a piece of flesh from a mother’s body. I want to see if you don’t feel pain when you lose other pieces of flesh.”

Yu Qiu’s fingers that were holding the cigarette butt trembled slightly. She pursed her red lips and didn’t speak.

“Now I understand that some people are not fit to be parents. Their selfishness and indifference are carved into their bones. They’ve also carved these into my bones, making me no longer believe in feelings and no longer have any expectations of human nature. But now I should erase the marks you’ve left on my body.”

He and qu Huaian were the same kind of people. They had been deeply hurt and influenced by their original family, so they could not show their true feelings to others. They would not give up for anyone without considering the consequences and embrace love without reservation.

He treated Yun Youwei this way, and qu Huaian treated Jiang rang the same way.

How could two people without sincerity and warmth hug each other?

If he wanted to warm up qu Huaian’s heart, he had to warm up himself first. That was why he came to find Yu Qiu.

It was time to let go of some things and say goodbye to some people.

The cigarette burned his fingertips. Yu Qiu came back to his senses and said in a calm tone, ” “It seems like that girl has a deep influence on you.”

Xie tingxi’s lips twitched but he didn’t deny it. every time I see her, I don’t think of you. I don’t think of the road I ran on many years ago. It’s not that I don’t hate you anymore. I just chose to follow this world, choose to live, and forget about you.

There was no reconciliation, no relief, just forget it.

All the grievances and grudges could be slowly resolved with time.

“Then I wish you all the best.” Spend the rest of your life with the girl you like.

Xie tingxi didn’t say anything. A man’s voice came from the stairs,”baby, this is ran ran.”

He turned his head and saw a man walking down the stairs. He was about the same age as him, wearing black pajamas, and his eyes were full of hostility.

“You really haven’t changed at all after so many years.” Xie tingxi smiled mysteriously and got up to leave.

Yu Qiu stood up to send him off.

“Baby, did I not work hard enough just now?” the man asked.

He deliberately said it for Xie tingxi to hear.

“Shut up,” he said. Yu Qiu turned around and glared at him coldly.

The man felt even more aggrieved. you’re fierce to me. You’re fierce to me, Hanhan, for another man.

Yu Qiu sighed helplessly.

Xie tingxi turned around and looked at Yu Qiu, who was thinking about changing men. He suddenly said, ” mom!!!

The man was speechless.

Yu Qiu was also stunned.

“Goodbye.”

After Xie tingxi finished speaking, he smiled and turned to leave.

This was the last time he would call her that. From now on, he would treat her as dead and they would never meet again.

Yu Qiu looked at the figure in the dark night and his eyes suddenly turned red.

……

After the back and forth trip, Xie tingxi fell sick at the cloud House. Fortunately, Mumu went to the moon House to be a third wheel, so she didn’t have to worry about infecting him.

Xie tingxi had a fever, but he was unwilling to take medicine. Qu Huaian could only lower his temperature physically first. It would be better if the fever went down. Otherwise, he would have to call a doctor.

He laid on the bed and turned his head to look at the woman who was wiping his palms. There was heating in the room, and she was only wearing a loose thin sweater with a V-shaped neck, revealing her beautiful collarbones and slender neck. Her chest rose and fell slightly with her breathing.

“Aren’t you going to ask me where I was the whole night?” He opened his mouth, his voice hoarse.

Qu Huaian’s movements paused, as if he was deliberately following his lead. where have you been? ”

“I’m going to say goodbye to my past.” Xie tingxi’s hot palm held her slender wrist tightly. when are you going to say goodbye to your past? ”

She pulled her hand away from his. I can’t say goodbye to the past.

“Why?”

I did have a lot of pain in my past, but I had the warmth that my brother gave me. If I say goodbye to the past, I’m saying goodbye to him.

And she was not willing to say goodbye to her brother.

Even if she was trapped in the shadow of her brother’s death, she was not willing to say goodbye.

Xie tingxi’s eyes darkened. is he that important to you? ”

Qu Huaian nodded without hesitation. it’s very important.

Without her brother back then, she didn’t know where she was now. Maybe she was dead, or maybe she was sold to some Devil’s Cave by human traffickers, living a life worse than death.

Xie tingxi’s jawline was tight, and he was silent.

Qu Huaian’s curled eyelashes trembled as he asked hesitantly, “why me?”

Xie tingxi glanced at her and still didn’t say anything.

“Because I look like her?” she asked again.

Xie tingxi understood what she meant and smiled. you two don’t look alike at all.

Yun Youwei was a woman who knew how to plan for herself, unlike her, who was smart and stubborn.

is it because of guilt that you’re transferring your guilt to me? ”

She didn’t believe that Xie tingxi would truly fall in love with her. There must be some other reason.

“Why should I feel guilty?” Xie tingxi asked her in return, ” Yun Youwei is Yun Youwei, and qu Huaian is qu Huaian. I can distinguish them clearly, but you can’t.

Qu Huaian did not say anything more and continued to help him wipe his palms.

Xie tingxi held her hand again and said stubbornly, ” qu Huainan’s death was an accident, and I’m partly responsible for it, but my crime doesn’t warrant death. You can’t just sentence me to death like this.

She didn’t know if it was because he was sick, but his tone was somewhat childish.

“Qu Huaian, you have to like me. At the very least, you have to try to like me. ”

Because I like you so much.

This time, qu Huaian did not pull his hand away. He was silent for a long time before he lowered his head and muttered, ” I just don’t want you to be disappointed in the end.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Xie tingxi’s eyelashes drooped, and his big palm tightly held her hand. I’m willing to take 99 steps. As long as you take the last step, it’ll be the last step, Yingluo.

Qu Huaian raised his head and saw that his eyes were slightly closed and his breathing was even. He seemed to have fallen asleep, and his mouth was open but he did not say anything.

Her clear but listless eyes stared at him quietly for a long time.

***

Xie tingxi’s cold dragged on for more than a week before he fully recovered. During this time, qu Huaian had been taking care of him.

By the time he brought Xie Yumu back, it was already after the new year. Xie tingxi didn’t rush back to the company to deal with work. Instead, he brought qu Huaian to the hospital.

Qu Huaian was stunned when he saw the foreign expert.
