In the past, he didn't have that much strength. Now, he definitely has it. Although he can't compare to Xue Qijing, but as long as he is given time, he believes that within five years, he will definitely be able to surpass Xue Qijing.
When he surpasses Xue Qijing, the first thing he will do is to win Mingxi back.
Without Mingxi, his existence would be worthless. His world would be colorless!
The night sky was pitch black, with no stars or moon. The sky was like a black canvas, blocking out all the light.
There were four figures standing on the rooftop, looking very strange in the dark night.
The night wind was blowing gently, and extremely weak light shone from the neon lights below the rooftop, making the already eerie atmosphere even more gloomy.
"Chen Qiqi, I've given you so much time, you should have thought it through, right?" Xiangyu was the first to break the atmosphere. In the darkness, Qiqi looked at him. Although she couldn't see anything, she could feel his sharp gaze.
Mingxi was silent and just listened quietly. If Qiqi and Xiangyu really had a relationship, she would try to bring them together. After all, Xiangyu was a good man, and she would be very satisfied if Qiqi was with him.
"I've thought it through, and I've thought it through very clearly!" Qi Qi's voice was calm, without a trace of ripples. Xiao Xiang was out of danger, she had nothing to be afraid of, her heart was already at peace.
"That's good!" Xiangyu's voice was cold, without any warmth at all.
"Qi Qi Xiangyu, you guys are talking. I think Qi Jing and I should step aside!" After all, it had nothing to do with her business. How could she, an outsider, interfere in their affairs
Thinking of this, Mingxi pulled Xue Qijing and prepared to leave.
"Mingxi...!" Before Mingxi left, Qiqi suddenly called her loudly, "You have to stay, and it is very necessary!"
Mingxi's steps suddenly paused, and she stood there for a few seconds. Finally, she turned around and looked at them straight.
"No matter it was five years ago, five years later, eight years ago, or even longer ago, Xiangyu always loves you so much!" Qiqi said this out of the blue, scaring Mingxi so much that she almost fainted.
Mingxi calmed herself down. Although she didn't know what Qiqi meant by those words, it was not nice to say them in front of Xue Qijing.
"Qiqi, we are not talking about this topic now, please don't change the subject deliberately! I think I'd better leave first!" Mingxi hurriedly pulled Xue Qijing and prepared to run away. But Qiqi suddenly shouted, "Mingxi, five years ago, I was just a stand-in! I was just your stand-in!"
After hearing this, Mingxi shuddered all over. She turned around puzzled and asked, "Qiqi, when did I let you be my substitute?"
Xue Qi was listening in shock, extremely angry. His face was filled with rage, which was completely swallowed up by the darkness.
"That night, he mistook me for you. The Mingxi he called out was Han Mingxi, not Chen Qiqi!" Thinking of that drunken one-night stand, Qiqi's lips curled up into a bitter smile. Although she didn't regret it, it didn't mean that she didn't care.
"Qiqi, stop talking. Let the past be the past. I am now..."
"But Mingxi!" Seeing that Mingxi was unwilling to talk about the past, Qiqi suddenly became a little excited, "Didn't you love him so much in the past? Can this also become a thing of the past?"
"..." For a moment, Mingxi didn't know how to answer. In her subconscious, although she missed the days she spent with Xiangyu, she suddenly realized that love at that time was not eternal. The one she loved in her heart now was what she should protect and stick to in this life.
"Qiqi, I..." Mingxi frowned.
"Have you forgotten that after he left, you cried for him in the corner of your room every day? Have you forgotten that after evening self-study, you would stand at the school gate and wait for him foolishly?" Qiqi's voice was very low. Seeing that Mingxi didn't speak, Qiqi continued, "If you have forgotten, then I will tell you. Please answer a few questions for me, okay?"
Mingxi bit her lip and looked straight at Qiqi. In the darkness, she saw tears in Qiqi's eyes, which flickered in the dim light. She knew that Qiqi had always loved Xiangyu. She loved Xiangyu no less than she did.
"Who was it who once said that he was the only one he loved in this life?" Qiqi asked in a low voice.
"I!" Ming Xi took a deep breath and then replied firmly.
Xue Qi was shocked to hear this. He was already unhappy, and now he was even more unhappy. He thought Ming Xi would not answer, but he did not expect that this woman would actually answer, and answer so confidently...
"Who was it that once promised me that he would make him happy for the rest of his life and would not let him be sad?"
"I!" Ming Xi answered directly and decisively without even thinking.
After Xue Qi heard this, he felt even more depressed. Did she agree to it right away in order to fulfill her promise? This woman...
Xue Qijing only felt that there was a surge of anger in his chest that was rapidly expanding, as if it was about to erupt like a volcano in the next second.
"In that case, Mingxi, are you..." Seeing Mingxi's answer, Qiqi wanted to continue, but Mingxi suddenly interrupted her.
"Qiqi, it's impossible for anyone to have only one true love in their life!" After Mingxi said this, Qiqi was immediately speechless. In the darkness, she looked at Mingxi with surprised eyes.
Her change was indeed surprising. If it were before, she would not know how to answer, let alone say such words.
"I admit that I once liked Xiangyu very much, even loved him very much, but that has become the past. Who can guarantee that he will only love one person in his life? Before meeting his true life partner, all the love he experienced will turn into nothing except memories." Mingxi said these words very calmly.
She knew Qiqi would not accept it, so she let go of Xue Qijing's hand, walked to her side, and asked in a low voice: "Does every woman have to marry the first man she falls in love with? Does a woman have to let go when she meets a man who is more suitable for her than the first man she fell in love with? Does a woman only fall in love once in her life?"
"This..." Qiqi didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Is there a legal stipulation? A woman is only allowed to date once in her life, only allowed to like the first man she likes, and only allowed to marry the first man she likes."
Qiqi frowned and stood there silently. In fact, she knew that Mingxi liked Xue Qijing now and they lived happily together, but she didn't know why she still said those words.
"Qiqi!" Mingxi suddenly hugged her shoulders and gently placed her head on her shoulders. "Young love is not forever!"
Qiqi's body suddenly froze. Young love, not forever?!
Yes, young love, nothing lasts forever!
We were young and frivolous, and that love could not stand the test of life.
Mingxi hugged Qiqi and glanced at Xiangyu. Although it was dark, she could still clearly see the expression on Xiangyu's face, which was full of disappointment...
"Xiangyu!" Mingxi let go of Qiqi and walked to Xiangyu, but Xiangyu turned his head away, not daring to look at Mingxi.
