Shi Ci finally squeezed out the weekend and flew to Beicheng.
In the business class, Shi Ci had a rare stomachache. She had always been careful about her diet and took good care of herself, so her stomach never bothered her. She hadn't slept well recently, and she had to lead a project with her students. Her girlfriend also treated her coldly and refused to communicate with her. It was a real mess, and she felt dizzy and confused.
This is not her first time in love. There are bound to be bumps and bruises in love, and both parties must communicate at this time.
She had only dealt with this kind of problem with Qiao Sha, and at that time she had to force communication, and she couldn't leave until the problem was solved.
They didn't sleep all day and all night, they quarreled, compromised, reconciled, quarreled again, and reconciled again, both of them suffered losses.
If they had given each other some time to cool down, the outcome wouldn't have been so bad.
She thought she had put a lot of thought into Tang Zuo, and she really liked her and wanted to pamper her.
Both her parents are gone, she has suffered a lot, and she is still a student, much younger than herself. Especially since she is still in the postgraduate study stage, she cannot be distracted, so she agreed to send her back that night.
Did she do something wrong
But whether the matter could be resolved if she was not allowed to leave that night was unknown.
What she didn't expect was that Tang Zuo stopped contacting her from that night on. She wasn't even sure if she had read all the messages she sent. It made her even more upset that she didn't want to reply after reading them.
Shi Ci is most afraid of cold violence and hates it the most.
She tried to think from her own perspective and believed that Tang Zuo should be a little resentful of herself.
If only I could communicate with her earlier about what happened that night, I wouldn't have to be insulted by Chen Yiyi in public.
Shi Ci took a sip of water and sighed.
Sister Miu sent a message, asking her whether she and Chen Yiyi had broken up and whether the relationship was irreversible.
Shi Ci told her not to worry about it and said she would no longer recognize this friend.
Sister Miu didn’t say anything else.
Shi Ci had nothing more to say to Chen Yiyi.
After getting off the plane, she took a taxi to where Tang Zuo lived.
Zhang Zinan gave her this address. She sent a message saying that she would come to see her this week. Tang Zuo finally replied her message and said, "OK."
Shi Ci smiled bitterly. This little bird was quite cruel. If Zhang Zinan hadn't hinted at her, she wouldn't have known that she was in Beicheng.
She got off the bus at the convenience store and immediately saw Tang Zuo standing there waiting for her. After more than a month, she seemed a little different. She had a ponytail, a white shirt dress, and a pair of flat sandals, looking fresh and beautiful.
Her arm, as white as mutton-fat jade, flashed before his eyes. She silently handed over a bottle of water and unscrewed the cap.
Shi Ci thanked him softly.
It was a hot day, and she had her long hair tied up in a Korean-style bun at the back of her head, which was slightly fluffy. She didn't wear any earrings, and her neck looked even more slender. She drank two sips of water, brushed her hair, and sighed softly.
Fortunately, she saw someone. She looked at Tang Zuo and waited for her to speak.
"Do you want to find a place to eat first?" Tang Zuo said in a low voice with his eyes lowered, not looking at her.
"I ate on the plane." Shi Ci looked at her and said.
"Then do you want to find a place to sit..." Tang Zuo still didn't look at her.
There is a crooked tree next to the convenience store. There is only the sound of cicadas but no wind.
The shade of the tree lay motionless between their shoes.
Shi Ci felt a little anxious.
She took another sip of water and smiled, "Can I come to see where you live?"
After dating for a few months, we are back to the starting point.
Shi Ci's stomach seemed to start hurting again.
Tang Zuo and Zhang Zinan lived in an old residential area, with one bedroom, one living room and one kitchen, less than 40 square meters, and the rent was 6,000 yuan. Fortunately, it was Zhang Zinan's parents who paid the rent, otherwise the two of them would not be able to afford it.
Shi Ci looked around and found that the kitchen was usable and the bed in the bedroom was a bunk bed. He felt quite relieved about this living environment, but he still couldn't help asking, "Do you need my help?"
Tang Zuo shook her head. She had met Zhang Zinan's parents once or twice. The two old people were very open-minded and gentle. They were very happy for them to live together and readily paid one deposit and three rent payments.
Shi Ci originally thought that they could get closer when they entered the private residence, but she felt that Tang Zuo was still cold and indifferent, and she felt a little disappointed.
She smiled as usual, walked over, opened her arms, and hugged her, "It's been a long time since we last met, don't you miss me?"
The girl in his arms froze for a moment, but she didn't push her away. She just hummed in an ambiguous way.
Shi Ci felt even more lost, not just lost, but also discouraged, so she let go of his hand.
There is a slight smell from the air conditioner in the room. I just drank half a bottle of mineral water and put it on the small coffee table.
Shi Ci sat on the small sofa, and Tang Zuo pulled up a plastic stool and sat on it.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
"Is the internship going well?" Shi Ci asked after a while. She didn't ask why Tang Zhuo came to Beicheng. Maybe he wanted to have his own space, or maybe he followed Zhang Zinan. She could understand.
"Yeah, it's good."
When do you plan to return to Hong Kong
Shi Ci swallowed the question back. They still had classes in the other college in the last two months of the first semester of their senior year, so Tang Zuo had to go back.
She took her bag, pulled out a red square box, put it on the coffee table, and pushed it in front of her with her slender white fingers. "It's your birthday in a few days. I can't celebrate it with you. This is a gift. See if you like it."
Tang Zuo was stunned when he saw the English word "cartier" on the box.
"It's not expensive, and it's not a new model, but it suits you very well. You have a job now, so it's better to have a watch." Shi Ci looked at her and said softly, "Open it and take a look?"
Tang Zhao pursed his lips and opened it. It had a tan leather strap, a square case that looked like rose gold, a round bead-shaped crown inlaid with a convex blue crystal, the hour and second hands were also azure blue, and the time scale was Roman numerals.
It is quiet, beautiful and delicate, and has a bit more personality than a round dial.
"It's too expensive." said Tang Zuo.
"It's a birthday present, not expensive." Shi Ci said.
"I..." Tang Zhuo put down the box, took a deep breath, and said, "I've been admitted to Beiyu."
The smile on Shi Ci's lips faded away, and she didn't speak for a long time.
Tang Zuo's heart almost stopped beating as he stared at her in a daze.
Shi Ci's eyes are very beautiful, especially eyes like this, which often look at her gently, lovingly, and deeply.
The eyes are full of affection and love, which is used to describe such eyes.
It was the first time that Tang Zuo saw her eyes gradually turn gray.
She raised the corners of her lips slightly, without any smile, and sighed, "Jiujiu, you didn't even discuss this with me..."
It wasn't a rhetorical question, just a sad, frustrated sigh.
It was as if someone had punched Tang Zuo hard in the chest. She was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
The atmosphere became strange and hard to describe, something was fermenting and dying. The two seemed to be controlled by some force, or they would rather believe that there was some other force holding them back.
After a while, Shi Ci opened her lips and shook her head. She turned her head to the side, as if looking at this strange house, but without a focus.
She sighed and stood up, "I'm leaving first."
Tang Zuo looked up at her, and their eyes intertwined in mid-air for a while.
No one spoke.
Shi Ci leaned over, picked up the bag again, slung it over his shoulder, and walked towards the door.
Tang Zhao blinked her eyes, paused at the door for a few seconds, then opened the door and walked out.
Tang Zuo sat there for an unknown amount of time. Gradually, she felt so uncomfortable that she could no longer acknowledge it. It was like strong acid that she could not swallow. She jumped up, opened the door and ran out.
Shi Ci walked under the scorching sun. She walked very fast at first, and without any purpose. She didn't know how many turns she made, but she didn't turn at all and just kept walking straight. She was just venting her unspeakable emotions.
The heat came in waves, my back was sweating, a lot of hair was stuck to my neck, and suddenly everything in front of me turned white.
She stopped and grabbed something beside her. She felt as if she was suffocated in a red-hot copper furnace, and a feeling of nausea rose in her chest.
With a "hiss" sound, at the door of a roadside shop, the owner's aunt poured a basin of water, and white smoke rose from the roadside.
There was a parasol at the entrance of the store, with tables and stools scattered under it. Shi Ci calmed down and realized that she was holding the corner of the table. She pressed her forehead and heard a cheerful voice, "Hey, hey, girl, are you okay? Oh, don't you have heatstroke? Come in and sit for a while."
This is a small beverage shop. The air conditioning is turned on at a moderate level. The fan is also spinning with a squeak. The breeze is cool and refreshing, just right.
The shop owner poured Shi Ci a cup of warm salt water, and she swallowed it mouthful by mouthful, and finally felt better.
There were not many people in the store, it was very clean, and the owner was cleaning the freezer.
Shi Ci sat quietly. The chaotic emotions that had just surged up had calmed down. His heart felt empty, and there was a cold wind blowing through it.
The pain was sharp and her heart was as cold as ash. After many years, she felt this feeling again.
Shi Ci's eyes slowly became moist.
She didn't know that Tang Zuo ran out, searching anxiously in the streets with red eyes, and finally gave up in despair.
If this whole scene was a plot in a movie, any bystander would say that it is fate. However, life is full of countless possibilities. It is possible to reconcile or miss it.
It was only after a long time that they realized that it was a storm and also a separation.
