MTL - Miss Gu and Miss Qu-Chapter 80
The meager light of the morning sun penetrates the ancient city, like the light seeping through the fingers of God.
The white doves and pious carols of believers on the Piazza della Signoria adorn the beautiful morning in Florence. The ancient bell tower and red roof are half bathed in sunlight and half wandering in darkness.
The tracks of the wheels gradually stopped by the river. Rong Jia, who was in the car, said to Yin Jun, "I don't know what Miss Qu thinks. She stayed here all night. She said at the beginning that Christmas was over and then she left. Now Christmas is over. gone."
Yin Jun lifted her bag and opened the car door expressionlessly, "Wait here."
Reflecting the water surface of the historic site, there are golden waves of light under the sun. The silent river seems to have been accumulated for thousands of years.
Yin Jun rode the wind to the river bank, stopped beside Qu Xizhi, took out her mobile phone from her bag and put it beside her, "She's not coming, I know better."
Qu Xizhi quietly looked at the endless red and white buildings on the other side of the river, his gloomy expression made him hopeless.
"Engaged on New Year's Day, do you have any opinions?"
Qu Xizhi didn't speak.
"There are two types of errors in the detection of polygraphs, one is specially trained, and the other is poor blood. What happened to Tang Yu was that she misunderstood her. Although it doesn't matter, I have to apologize to those who were misunderstood or even hurt. Whether the other party is willing to forgive or not, understand?"
Qu Xizhi never spoke.
Dozens of hours ago.
The wide streets were buried by the snow all night, and the city was foggy in the morning. Gu Xizhi took the elevator downstairs, but just as he walked out of the corridor, he stopped because of the familiar smell of perfume.
There was no sound behind him, but there was clearly a breath of life. Gu Xizhi stood where he was, neither moving forward nor looking back.
"In recent years, I have always been unable to control my emotions." Finally that one spoke, his voice still hoarse.
"I am ashamed enough for what I have done, and I owe an apology for the crime."
After a long time, Gu Xizhi turned around, and there was no smoke in the corridor.
In the early morning of New Year's Day, the city is still full of traffic, and the latest news is broadcast on the TV station. When you open the window, you can see that the city is still covered in unmelted ice and snow, overlooking all living beings from a high place, and all the hurried actions are as small as ants.
The phone kept ringing, and Gu Xizhi, who had just finished putting on his makeup, hurriedly connected the phone, and while taking his coat, he said, "Have you booked your flight ticket?"
"Okay, we'll be there soon."
After going downstairs, a black car drove straight towards her. She thought it would be an assistant to pick her up, but Tang Yu appeared in the driver's seat when the window came down.
"What is it? Where's Cindy?" Gu Xizhi opened the car door and sat down on the back seat.
"It turns out that everyone knows but not." Tang Yu started the accelerator, "She just found out that she is pregnant, and asked for two days off because of the strong morning sickness reaction."
"But..." Gu Xizhi, who always felt that something was wrong, was about to ask a question, but he glanced at the private message on Weibo, turned to the hot topic list, and the news of Qu Xizhi's engagement today appeared at the top of the list. Xizhi watched it for a long time, and then quit Weibo.
Glancing at Gu Xizhi in the rearview mirror, Tang Yu asked, "What's wrong?"
"No." Gu Xizhi put away his phone, thought for a while and asked, "Shen Ya likes Qu Xizhi very much, right?"
"They're getting engaged today." Tang Yu smiled, "That's it."
Gu Xizhi lowered his head and stopped talking.
The air was quiet for a while, Tang Yu took the initiative to say, "The plane at noon today is going to France?"
Gu Xizhi nodded, but did not speak.
"This opportunity is very good. Lorenzo's international influence is not small. It may be an opportunity to go abroad. Grasp it."
This time Gu Xizhi didn't even nod his head, not knowing what to think.
Driving fast on the road, while waiting for the traffic lights, Gu Xizhi seemed to think of something, looked up at Tang Yu, "Do you know where their engagement ceremony will be held?"
Tang Yu didn't answer right away, and said after a while, "Xiaojing, can't you let go?"
Gu Xizhi remained silent, looking down at the newly changed necklace.
Slowing down the speed of the car, Tang Yu said slowly, "There is one thing that has not been told."
Gu Xizhi looked up.
Tang Yu continued, "Originally they planned to get engaged in April, because their wedding date will be postponed."
Gu Xizhi thought for a while, but still didn't understand what he meant, "Because?"
Tang Yu said, "Originally they were supposed to marry their sons."
Gu Xizhi blinked and looked at him motionless, with a dull expression.
Tang Yu continued, "So, give them back their happiness."
The knuckles between the intertwined fingers were aching, Gu Xizhi sorted out his confused thoughts, and after accidentally touching some neglected memories, he slowly raised his head to look at Tang Yu.
Tang Yu only said, "Career is the most important thing."
The snow-colored sunlight that covered the city refracted strong light, Gu Xizhi covered his aching eyes, felt that the eyes were sore, and wiped the corners of them with a handkerchief.
Tang Yu drove quietly and never spoke again.
The largest concert hall in the city covers an area of nearly 20,000 square meters. The buildings near mountains and rivers make this concert hall full of leisurely atmosphere in addition to being very modern. It seems that because of this, the trees in it are particularly overhanging.
This is the place where Qu Xizhi and Shen Ya met, and it is also the place where they got engaged today.
The warm sun shines directly down, and the snow on the treetops gradually melts as the temperature rises.
Qu Zhai is busy because of Qu Xizhi's engagement. The make-up artist for Qu Xizhi is a foreign girl. When she sees Qu Xizhi appearing in front of her in a dress, she is amazed.
"Miss Qu, you look so beautiful in a white dress, like the fairy you say, you will be terribly beautiful in your wedding dress in the future."
Qu Xizhi was just facing the makeup mirror, the smile on her face was stiff because she was too polite, but as soon as the makeup artist turned around, the last smile on her face disappeared like snow melting into the sun.
When Qu Yu passed the dressing room, he glanced at Qu Xizhi facing the mirror expressionlessly, and knocked on her door.
"Hey, you have to smile a bit when you're engaged, sister."
Qu Xizhi looked at her with wavy hair from the mirror, and lowered his eyes numbly.
Airport in two hours.
The time waiting for the plane was extremely boring. Although there were many fellow travelers around him, Gu Xizhi who was sitting in the waiting hall still just looked back and forth with his mobile phone.
Qu Xizhi and Shen Ya's engagement was going to be broadcast live on Weibo. Since the media learned that the two were not married in China, this engagement ceremony became the highlight of the media.
Because there were not many celebrity friends invited, I didn’t see much news after flipping through Weibo a few times, but the huge sail-shaped concert hall appeared on Weibo repeatedly, which seemed to let everyone know that it was a place where love started.
At 12:20, the engagement ceremony should have started for some time, but the delayed plane had to wait another 40 minutes.
Closing the phone, Gu Xizhi was about to go to the bathroom, but when he looked up, he found Zhong Linshan standing in front of him in red high heels and approaching 1.90 meters, wearing a red and white plaid coat and peaked cap.
When she took off her sunglasses, her face without dead ends was exposed to the air, and her red lips and fair face adorned her exquisite facial features to catch the eye.
"Can we talk with you?" Zhong Linshan tilted his head to look at her.
Gu Xizhi looked at her for a while, then nodded slightly.
The large area of greenery outside the south gate of the airport was sparse and smoke-free. Gu Xizhi followed Zhong Linshan all the way, the sun dragged the shadow of the two for a long time, Zhong Linshan kept talking, and Gu Xizhi kept listening.
"Because of our sisters, Qu Xizhi has been helping, but we have never been together with her. To be honest, although we are often together with her, I have never been able to understand what she is thinking, and many people chase her, but she has no love for love. It seems numb."
Gu Xizhi listened to her quietly, "Maybe I didn't meet anyone I really liked at that time."
"She likes it very much." Zhong Linshan stopped and turned to look at her. "Although she is quite beautiful, I can't think of why she likes it so much. Frankly speaking, it's not a character I like very much. Maybe it's not respectful enough, but it's the truth."
Gu Xizhi accepted the words calmly, and then sighed slightly, "It's all over, now she likes Shen Ya, and she is about to get married."
"This is also the purpose of coming here today." Zhong Linshan looked at the time, "I have important things to do later, and I can't attend their engagement ceremony, but I haven't contacted her for several months, and I can't get through to her, so I still can't know her. Why did you go to get married." Speaking of this, she looked at her seriously, "If she is really married, I feel sorry for you, and I want to know whether the marriage came from her original intention."
Gu Xizhi thought for a long time, "It should."
"That's the answer." Zhong Linshan shrugged, "The engagement ceremony has been going on for a long time, so I can only regret it."
Gu Xizhi lowered his eyes, his expression became erratic.
After seeing off Zhong Linshan, there were still twenty minutes left before the boarding time. Gu Xizhi just stood by the green belt outside the south gate and watched the traffic quietly. Occasionally, if she passed by, she would be surprised. Yu Chang's behavior gave her several sideways glances.
It was already 12:40, and the engagement ceremony belonging to Qu Xizhi should be as prosperous as fireworks rising into the sky, and she, Gu Xizhi, was about to embark on the next step of her career, as if the two had never met on the same track.
The sun shines on the body but there is no warmth, the heart is like a dull dead branch, lifeless in the gloomy winter, Gu Xizhi doesn't look sad at all, it's just a bit like a piece of wood without flesh and blood, and even tears become extravagant.
After an unknown amount of time, a shadow blocked the light in front of him. Gu Xizhi looked up and saw Tang Yu pulling her wrist and handing a car key into her hand.
"At first I wanted to listen to Miss Lin again." Tang Yu withdrew his hand, retreated to a suitable position and faced Gu Xizhi, "but suddenly felt that everything gained in this way could not make up for what was lost."
Gu Xizhi looked down at the key, then looked up at him, not understanding, "What Miss Lin?"
Tang Yu didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, until tears suddenly appeared in Gu Xizhi's eyes, and then said, "I got close back then, not because of liking, but because of Miss Lin Mingling."
Gu Xizhi looked at him motionlessly, as if being molded into a statue by the sunlight, only the trembling around the corners of her eyes could prove her freshness.
"The charity gala that time was just the first step. The one back then was far less luxurious. The chicness she saw was the support of Ms. Lin, and the goal she wanted to achieve must have always been clear but she didn't quite understand it."
Seeing her tears soaking her eyes, Tang Yu continued, "There is no better reason to explain the behavior, and I never hope that one day I will know the truth and I will forgive me. When I left China Entertainment back then, I faced a better choice, that's all, it happened Yes."
Looking at herself from her eyes, "I used some skills on the "Truth" program for the first time. At that time, I was still with Qu Xizhi, and I could see that I was very happy. I am sorry that I will give feedback to Lin Miss made her understand so much, which made the later ones unhappy." At this point, he smiled, "Don't worry about the sorry, it's just a joke."
Tears had welled up in his eyes, Gu Xizhi looked at him silently, with only sadness on his expression.
Tang Yu took a step back, avoiding the glare of her tears, "I won't hand the handkerchief this time, we don't need this kind of tenderness in the first place, I just hope to forget the Qu Xi that once appeared in my mouth Because it's a distorted image, an unreal image."
Looking at her tears and smiling, "Jean felt ashamed because of the tears. There is only one thing to tell, that Qu Xizhi once suffered from depression. In April and May this year, her doctor frequently treated her. Vomiting was one of them. A symptom of this has nothing to do with pregnancy, so there is no so-called marriage with a child." Speaking of this, she looked at her watch, "Shen Ya really likes Qu Xizhi, the key has been given, I just hope to hurry up." Looking up, bowing, "Happiness."
The tall and straight back was blurred by the sunlight, the tall man in the black suit bowed, turned around, and walked further and further away in the light, even the sound of his footsteps became weaker and weaker.
The tears seemed to be frozen by the cold wind, and a trembling female voice echoed the wind, "I never want to see it again."
The black figure only froze for a second in the light and shadow, and even the so-called one second was just an illusion.
The other side of the world completely disappeared.
