It's hard to let go of a person.

Since that day, Yu He has been silently chasing after Qingcheng Xie, wanting to talk to him again.

But Qingcheng Xie had already made up her mind not to have any more involvement with him.

Leaving a person is like curing a disease, if the mind wavers, the medication is ambiguous, and you stop halfway, when the old disease returns, you will only get sicker than before.

Yu He came to dawdle in his class, and he let him dawdle, but never looked at him.

Yu He sends him messages and he sees them, but never replies.

When Yu He finished school, he wanted to come to his dormitory to see him, but Qingcheng Xie closed the door and did not let him come near again.

Qingcheng Xie has been monitoring the value on the bracelet from the software, although he does not contact Yu He anymore, but also does not want Yu He to be sick, so he just stopped paying attention to Yu He, and did not force Yu He can no longer come to him. Yu He has a little place to put his emotions, so his wristband is not completely red, but still orange.

Qingcheng Xie thought, "Take your time, one day, the orange will turn back to blue.

Yu He could not wait for him forever.

He started to clean up the house.

There are some things in the house that do not belong to him, it is better to get rid of them as soon as possible. If you don't clean up, you don't know, but when you really pick up, you realize that there are so many things Yu He left behind.

There are several of Yu He's books and even his homework books on the table. When I look at them, I see that Yu He is really serious about his homework, his handwriting is neat and clean, and he almost always gets an A+.

Yu He once wanted to go to Disney and invited Qingcheng Xie to join him, but Qingcheng Xie thought that going to an amusement park was meaningless and a waste of time and money, so Yu He had to go by himself and brought back this pair of mugs afterwards and made sure to display them in Qingcheng Xie's dormitory.

Yu He was never in the mood to decorate his bedroom in the villa, but he had to move a lot of things to Qingcheng Xie's place.

The most annoying thing is the game console in the corner of the living room, when the courier delivery, Qingcheng Xie thought it was sent to the wrong place, he is here is a staff dormitory, do not need another large color TV.

As a result, the delivery man explained that it was a game console.

As soon as Qingcheng Xie saw the name of the buyer, he called Yu He with a sullen face and asked him what he really wanted.

Yu He said this is the latest model, can be two-player online, playing a very decompressed.

However, after buying it, it has been eating dust, Qingcheng Xie has never sat with Yu He in the living room and played any games.

Qingcheng Xie took care of all these things.

He helped the old man who packed the scrap to carry these things to the car, and when he returned home, he suddenly felt that the house had become much emptier, and could even be called cold.

It's all clean.

Qingcheng Xie stood in the living room for a while, went into the bedroom, and suddenly found that there was still a fish in the bedroom - it was a blind Pokémon box on the nightstand, which Yu He had brought with him one day at the bookstore. Qingcheng Xie's bedside table.

"Aren't you afraid of the cold? It can warm you up."

Qingcheng Xie raised his eyes from the book at that time: "That's false."

Yu He smiled and came over, walked behind his chair and put his arm around his shoulder from the back: "Then I'm real, let me warm you up, bed warming service, free of charge for a year."

Qingcheng Xie threw the little fire dragon into the garbage bag, the flame decoration on the tail of the little dragon was touched off, it lay in the bag, although still smiling like that, but as if very sad.

"......"

Qingcheng Xie finally picked it back up, laid it on the bed, and then took the glue carefully, glued the flame on the tail back on.

June, thunderstorm season.

Huzhou became hot and muggy, with frequent afternoon thunderstorms.

Yu He still often comes to see Qingcheng Xie under the dormitory building, because he is afraid to disturb each other, he is far across the road - from there is able to see Qingcheng Xie study, and Qingcheng Xie preparation for class or finishing materials, have to be completed in the study.

Huzhou University's choreographer ended his freshman night study at 8:30 p.m. Yu He came to Qingcheng Xie's school usually at 9:00 p.m. He watched him and stayed with him until 11:00 p.m., when he would send a message to Qingcheng Xie.

"Brother, it's late, stop working and go to bed early."

"Good night."

More accurate than the alarm.

Qingcheng Xie thought he would not come and wanted to open the window for a cigarette, but before he reached the window and pushed the glass, he saw Yu He standing in the rain with his umbrella.

The two men's eyes met.

Qingcheng Xie wore glasses and saw everything clearly, because the rain was too heavy, Yu He stood in it, and the umbrella had no obvious effect, he was still drenched, standing there drenched, just to make sure Qingcheng Xie had properly turned off the lights to sleep and did not stay up late.

At this moment, Qingcheng Xie suddenly felt that Yu He was right from before, he didn't know he could be so cruel.

But he had to be so ruthless.

His health was deteriorating and one day he woke up with a coughing fit and later found blood in the snow-colored handkerchief covering his mouth and nose.

He went back to Meiyu for the most detailed medical examination, and the findings did not allow him to have any optimistic thoughts.

Qingcheng Xie went home, reorganized Ciyan Qin's notes, and measured how long it would take him to finish the rest of them, as well as to do the tests and make up for all the information that had been destroyed - he thought he still had time, but not much.

He had to hurry up, plus he had to continue researching treatment drugs for Old Qin's daughter.

However -

" Sheng Xie ."

One evening, Qingcheng Xie was reading a book when she received a call from Rongbei Qin's husband.

The American had studied in Hong Kong and learned Mandarin with an old Hong Kong accent, so he called Qingcheng Xie not Mr. Xie but Sheng Xie.

Rongbei Qin was kidnapped by a dark organization, which tortured her, threatened her, and experimented on her.

Her whole being was ruined by them.

Although Qingcheng Xie decided to resume taking RN-13 and tested his own body to develop an effective drug to stop Rongbei Qin's organ atrophy, time was too short and the drug only improved Rongbei Qin's physical condition to a certain extent, but ultimately did not have the desired effect.

Since last year, Rongbei Qin's condition has been worsening, and while medication has been effective in easing her pain, it has been difficult to stop her from getting sicker.

When he received the call, Qingcheng Xie was touched and vaguely alarmed.

On the other end of the line was Rongbei Qin's husband's hoarse, but trying his best to soothe over the sadness: " Sheng Xie, my wife left this morning, and she went very peacefully. Thank you so much for everything you've done for her over the years ......"

The call ended and there was still a buzz within the eardrums.

Qingcheng Xie walked to the balcony and looked at the fine rain drizzling outside.

The weather was the same as when Huzhou sent Ciyan Qin off.

He lit a cigarette and tried to smoke it, but his hand was frozen, so he couldn't lift it.

He stood numbly for a long time, until the cigarette burned out.

Rongbei Qin was also a doctor and a scientist, and Qingcheng Xie was never entirely sure if she had learned the truth about the First Emperor from her father. He later tended to think that she did, because after her accident, her husband went through her work notes before she was tortured into madness and found many research topics related to RN-13 patients, but after she was arrested, she endured all kinds of torture and refused to say anything.

In addition, when Rongbei Qin's husband went through her things afterwards, he found a drawing she had made of the Qin couple, herself, her husband, her daughter, and their brother, who had died in a car accident.

There was another person whose features she hadn't drawn in full, standing right next to her father, wearing the same doctor's uniform as her father.

Rongbei Qin used gentle brushstrokes and included the painting in an album she brought with her from China.

In the footnotes of the album, she wrote a few slightly tilted Chinese characters in light blue ink: "My family.

Qingcheng Xie once again took a trembling hand and tried to light a cigarette again.

But this time even the fire engine can not rub.

It was late at night, and all around was an invisible darkness.

.

After the death of Rongbei Qin, Qingcheng Xie went to the Huzhou mausoleum.

He brought two bouquets of flowers, one of which was placed at the grave of Man Chen's brother, Lisheng Chen. Man Chen has recovered, but recently he has been under the strict control of his family, and his parents are afraid that he will risk doing something stupid again, so they have to send bodyguards to follow him everywhere he goes.

Qingcheng Xie thought it was a good thing that he didn't want to see Man Chen in any further danger.

The second bouquet of flowers he did not offer.

There were people mourning at Ciyan Qin's grave, and he took a look at them from afar, and some of them were old colleagues from Huzhou First Hospital. So he took the snow-colored bunch of lilies, turned around, walked down the long steps of the mountain path, and finally put the white bunch of lilies at the entrance of the cemetery, and just as he was about to leave, someone picked up the lilies he had left behind.

It's Yu He.

" Qingcheng Xie ."

"......"

"You're going to give him the flowers, aren't you? Wait a minute, I'll help you go and put the flowers on his grave."

Without waiting for Qingcheng Xie's answer, Yu He picked up the bouquet of white flowers, walked up to the statue of Ciyan Qin, solemnly put the bouquet down and then paid three deep respects.

Qingcheng Xie stood in the drizzle and watched him do all this ......

When he got down to the gate, Qingcheng Xie was already far away, and Yu He could only see his slightly thin back.

I don't know if it's just him, but he thinks Qingcheng Xie has been getting worse and worse lately. He always sees him coughing and running to Meiyu private hospital - obviously Xue Xie has been discharged.

Especially today in the cemetery to see him, the sun his face pale like a transparent thin soul, the sea of silver fog, seems to soon disappear out of sight.

Qingcheng Xie now lives, it seems, to finish Ciyan Qin's book, but otherwise his connection to the world is already very thin - he no doubt still longs for the "Wen Duan" mentioned by Liping Jiang. "Wen Duan, who is the boss behind the cross-border enterprise, has been invisible to Jingfeng Zheng.

His parents have been dead for nineteen years, and this year's anniversary is a full twenty years.

Twenty years in a flash, countless people's blood boiled out, green hair and so on to gray hair, but never wait for a justice to come. The murderer is still at large, the fallen police officers still can not get a proper name, the pursuit of the forbidden drug RN-13 is also still in the dark continue.

Qingcheng Xie waited strongly for twenty years in a desperate situation.

In the second decade, Rongbei Qin died.

Qingcheng Xie no longer felt much pain, how unacceptable, he slowly became extraordinarily calm -

Because he knew that he was close to them.

Soon, in no more than a few years, he will be there for them too.

I just wonder, in the end, he has done all his personal strength, but still not able to give an account with them, the other world to meet, they will not feel disappointed with him?

"Brother, are you coming back to the dorm today?" Another week has passed and Qingcheng Xie went to pay respects to Ping Xie Muying Zhou with Aunt Xue Xie Lai on the weekend of this week.

His parents' mausoleum is not in the same place as Ciyan Qin, but in a very small cemetery in the west of the city, where commoners are buried.

When I returned from the tomb sweeping, I went back to Moyu Lane and had a meal at Aunt Lai's house, Xue Xie asked him this after the meal.

"If you go back to the dormitory, we both take a taxi together, and save a gas ......"

Qingcheng Xie did not answer this, he seemed to have something on his mind.

After helping Aunt Li clean up the dishes, Qingcheng Xie wiped the water on her hands while raising her eyes and said to Xue Xie, " Xue Xie, you come back inside with me first, I have something I want to talk to you about."

Inside the house.

Xue Xie was slightly disturbed; since she had grown up, Qingcheng Xie had rarely called her into the house so seriously to sit down and talk with her.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Qingcheng Xie poured two cups of tea and sat down, "It's not a big deal, sit down first."

Xue Xie sat down apprehensively, with her buttocks only on one edge of the stool.

Her brother pushed the hot tea to her and after a while, finally opened his mouth, " Xue Xie , you are not young, you can't live with me all the time in the future."

After a pause, the macho Xie father and sister to talk about such things, or slightly awkward.

But it is not possible not to talk, Qingcheng Xie is planning for all the things behind this period, including Xue Xie's life event.

So after a few seconds of silence, he still spoke with a taut face, "...... want to find a date?"

Xue Xie : "...... ah??"

Qingcheng Xie : "I have found some for you, the conditions are not bad, the character is also I have observed. You can arrange a time next week, if there is no problem, go to meet them."
