Chapter 180: gone to the other side

It is reasonable to say that when a young man like Man Chen is going to live in another country for a long time, his friends and family should get together and have a farewell party or something.

But Man Chen left in such a hurry that even his parents were caught off guard, and no one else was prepared.

The farewell party could not be held, so some relatives and friends of the Chen family, political and business partners, sent people to see off the plane.

"It's a small token of our appreciation, so take it and take care of yourself when you get to Hiroshima."

"Take your time brother, have a good trip!"

The mother was busy stopping her young daughter's babbling and said, "When people fly, you have to say "safe journey", not "safe journey", understand?

The little girl scratched her head, showing her milk teeth, and said instead, "Okay, take your time, brother, and have a safe trip."

Man Chen thanked them all and said goodbye to them, he hugged his mother who was crying, "Mom, it's okay, don't worry. I'll keep you posted regularly."

Chen's mother was still speechless.

Chen father sighed: "Good reason, have to go to what field, to go to what the first line of criminal police, how to persuade can not persuade, your grandfather almost did not scold us yesterday to bleed, if not today Yanzhou an important cadre meeting he wants to attend, he must have flown here to lecture you. ...... alas, forget it, it's useless to talk too much, you take care of yourself."

Man Chen nodded his head.

There were many people, familiar and unfamiliar, who came to say goodbye. Man Chen's eyes skimmed over these people, seemingly waiting for someone to appear, but the boarding time was almost up, and that person was still nowhere to be seen.

Man Chen's eyes gradually showed an unconcealed disappointment.

"Well, go ahead. Call us when you arrive." Chen's father said.

Man Chen nodded, took his ticket, and turned around to prepare to leave.

However just then -

" Yan Chen ."

Man Chen's body trembled as if touched by an electric current, and he looked around.

A familiar, tall figure appeared in the crowd at the airport. Qingcheng Xie, wearing a pale root-colored shirt and smoky gray suit pants, walked slowly toward him with his hands in his pockets.

Man Chen, as if in a dream, mumbled, "Thank you brother ......"

Qingcheng Xie walked up to him, stood still, and handed him a red envelope: "...... other than not saying anything more."

"Brother ......"

"Now that you have made your decision, let's take this path well. This is my accompanying gift to you, wishing you a new start in another city."

Man Chen did not dare to show too much in front of everyone, except for his trembling fingers when he received the red envelope, which revealed his great ups and downs at this moment.

He took the red envelope, which was covered with the familiar timeless hard pen writing.

"Peace."

With only two simple words like this, Man Chen's vision was somewhat blurred.

Qingcheng Xie did not expect much from him, he only hoped that Man Chen would be safe in Hiroshima. Man Chen took the red envelope with both hands and Qingcheng Xie said, "Open it when no one is around."

Although he didn't know why he asked, Man Chen did.

Qingcheng Xie finally looked at him steadily for a few seconds, as if there were still some words he wanted to say to him, but because of what had happened between them, in the end, those words still didn't come out.

At this time, the plane ticket announcement at the airport rang, and Man Chen looked back and said softly, "Brother, thank you for coming to see me off today."

Qingcheng Xie patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go."

Man Chen is entering the security check.

Chen's father and mother thanked the guests, but Chen's father was a bit cold towards Qingcheng Xie - although Lisheng Chen's death was not directly related to the Xie family, in Chen's father's opinion, Lisheng Chen was sacrificed to seek justice and truth for the Xie family.

Qingcheng Xie also did not care, he finished sending Man Chen and left the crowd.

"Hey, did you guys see that just now? That's Xue Xie's brother."

"Which one?"

"The one who finally appeared to give Yan Chen a red envelope, a very tall, handsome one."

When Qingcheng Xie was leaving the airport, he stopped by a convenience store to buy a cup of coffee. They had both heard about the wedding party, but one of them had never seen Qingcheng Xie before, so they were happy to listen to the other one's rap.

"Oh my God, it's him? I heard the rumors about him and Dashao He before, I thought he was kind of foxy looking, that man looked quite decent ah, more manly than my husband, how could he be the kind of man who seduced Dashao He into bed ...... you are kidding me, right?"

"Who's kidding with you, it's him! If you don't believe me, search online, he's been on the social news several times before, and you can still find his photos and videos online."

The broad lady a search, a big fall: "really he ...... can not see this person completely out of a gay ah, I previously met those who were raised male lovers, ouch, a watery oh, than I will also maintain hey! Shao He what is going on, to find also find a soft and beautiful well."

"You don't understand it." Her best friend lowered her voice and whispered, "Now these rich youngsters are popular to play with straight men, or look like straight men, that is the sense of conquest, enough excitement. And I listened to the day witnessed the scene of the clock said ah, this Professor Xie in that time the voice oh, aigoo, is amazing, she is a woman she listened to are ashamed of, no wonder Shao He charmed dizzy."

"How good can a man's voice sound, Zhong too speak too exaggerated."

"Not only Mrs. Zhong, Mrs. Fan also said so, Mrs. Fan's taste you know ah, the empty night club is her open, she has so many beautiful men under the hand, she has not seen what?"

They had their backs to him and were also buying coffee, not noticing that Qingcheng Xie himself was in the airport convenience store.

Such filthy words, and he has no way to stop or justify, it would be better to just pretend not to hear, cross about his filthy words are also a lot, he has long been used to.

However, the conversation between the two women is not over yet, and the topic has shifted from Qingcheng Xie to Yu He.

"So you're saying Dashao He's serious about him?"

"It does look possible to me ......"

"That's outrageous."

"The first thing you need to know about Dashao He is that he has the most self-respect and the highest vision in the entire Huzhou gentry circle. The former personal doctor, who has been a doctor in his family for almost ten years, brought Dashao He from the age of seven to eight.

"Ouch ......" the other wife sniffed, used her imagination and couldn't help but tsk, "...... this is too ......"

The voices of the ladies are getting lower and lower, and the content of the conversation is getting more and more unrestrained: "It is not certain when these two will fall in love, maybe Shao He adolescence, the first time is in this 'private' doctor to vent out. The last time I talked to Mrs. Chung about this, she felt that the two of them must have been talking for years."

"After talking for so many years still so passionate ah, even in the sister's wedding reception can not help but get up, really do not know shame."

"Who says otherwise. But if you ask me, no matter how long they've been talking on the sly, Dashao He is now going to break up with his doctor lover."

The broadsheet pricked up her ears, "Oh? What does that say?"

"You do not know? He hasn't been out of the house much lately, and he hasn't gone to Qingcheng Xie. We all figured that he was lectured by his parents, how embarrassing, right? The wedding banquet is not something that anyone dares to say in the open, but behind the scenes, who does not talk about it? Jiwei He and Zhishu Lv have lost all their shame to their eldest son. With Zhishu Lv's nature, it's strange that she won't force Dashao He and the private doctor to cut it off."

"It seems to be true when you say so ...... haven't heard from the He family for a long time."

"The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.

Qingcheng Xie more and more annoying to hear, two mouthfuls of the rest of the refreshing coffee finished, paper cups thrown into the trash, and ready to leave.

Who knew that just then -

"Hey, do you think the Wei family was zapped with villainy in this area of in-laws? How come they always get into this kind of wedding scandal. When we were young, that Rong Wei was also--"

Qingcheng Xie was amazed, Rong Wei?

He didn't expect to hear Rong Wei's name here and immediately stopped in his tracks.

"I'd forgotten if you didn't tell me. It was almost twenty years ago, wasn't it? I wasn't even married then."

I still remember clearly that the wedding banquet was the weirdest wedding banquet I have ever attended, it was just like a funeral. The bride and groom both wanted to put the words 'family union' on their faces. Rong Wei also dropped the ring on the floor during the ring exchange, and in front of all the guests, he personally came down from the stage to pick it up and put it on Sheng Meng without wiping it."

"And wearing the wrong finger."

"Yeah, the faces of the two high halls, yo." The woman shook her head, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's a vivid memory. The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. No wonder the Wei family didn't have the heart to blame him."

"I say that Rong Wei is also funny, I heard that she suspected Sheng Meng looks ugly, do not look up to others, but she has a few points of beauty? A researcher ...... who is always plain-faced, I hated her at that time, at first I wanted to be friends with her, I felt sorry for her, but it turned out that she had a high self-esteem, showing off her strong learning ability all day long, saying that we can not study are pig brains. Unlike her, she is a senior student of Shanghai Medical College and a student of Ciyan Qin."

Qingcheng Xie : "!!!"

The broads have finished their coffee, the two cleaned up, elegantly and gracefully got up, their faces are gossip nourished by the glow.

" So what if she is a senior student of Shanghai Medical College, so what if she is a student of Academician Qin, she is still a dead student, but she has achieved nothing?"

"Go early, right, if you go later, with her talent, I'm afraid to get a Nobel Prize oh."

The two wives seem to be quite disgusted with Rong Wei, generally speaking, the death of a person is important, normal people are unlikely to deride a dead person, but when they talk about Rong Wei, they can not stop the dislike, until the two walked out of the convenience store together, but still did not stop the woman's sarcastic taunts.

The convenience store's sensor door closed behind them both.

Qingcheng Xie stood frozen in place, a phrase echoing in his head -

"...... unlike her, a senior at Shanghai Medical College and a student of Ciyan Qin."

After he left the airport, he immediately took a taxi to the Shanghai Medical College archives building. The leaden gray city swept before his eyes, and the bright light of the Sun shone through between the depressing buildings. Qingcheng Xie could vaguely sense that a certain truth, after wandering for so many years, was finally getting closer to him.

.

On the plane.

Man Chen opened the red envelope Qingcheng Xie gave him, and in it, besides the money that meant good luck, an old yellowing greeting card fell out. The card looked familiar, Man Chen slowly opened it, and when he was halfway through reading it, tears moistened his eyes.

It was the second New Year after his brother left, and he gave Qingcheng Xie a greeting card. The young handwriting had faded, but the whole card was well preserved by Qingcheng Xie.

The old greeting card reads:

Qingcheng Xie brother, thank you for replacing my brother, protecting me, encouraging me, I hope you can always be my brother in the future, I will always be with you, Xue Xie and I will always be by your side, we should all be happy every day.

Yan Chen

Below the childish words deposited by the years, there is another line of dark, slightly tilted, brand new handwriting, which Qingcheng Xie has just left.

"Life is long, cherish the road ahead, do not be proud or discouraged, wait for the light."

The children of that year did not always see Qingcheng Xie as their brother, as the greeting card said, and they could not always be happy together.

What you said at age ten was forever, but at twenty it seemed like a childish to hilarious joke.

And at thirty it seems like a wonderful but unreturnable dream.
