The scent of flowers and grass mixed together with the fragrance of Qin Haiyao's body. Ruan Yihan hugged her waist tightly, feeling her tenderness.
Just this moment is enough.
Let everything stay at this moment.
…
In the end, Qin Haiyao had no strength left. She leaned against Ruan Yihan and whispered softly with her lips red from being kissed: "I will remember it."
She will always remember this day and this birthday.
When they got home, they were both silent.
The moonlight lingered again, just like last night.
Life is spent like this day after day, and before you know it, your hair will turn gray.
How can you celebrate your birthday without eating cake
Ruan Yihan agreed to make it for Xiaohai, so she prepared the mold in advance and worked carefully and attentively.
Her hands gently traced the shape of the cake. Qin Haiyao looked at her for a long time from behind, then turned around and tried hard not to let her tears fall.
It's less than four hours until twelve o'clock.
I wonder if there will be such a romantic night in the future
Qin Haiyao walked to Ruan Yihan, sat behind her, put her arms around her waist, and put her face against her back.
"Ah Han, Ah Han..."
She whispered softly, calling the name again and again, Ruan Yihan's tears fell on the cake. She wished she could just let go and stay with her forever.
But... she just couldn't get over that hurdle.
Night after night, she kept thinking about how her parents had passed away, Qin Qin's schemes, the cliff in her previous life, and the scene where she jumped off... She kept thinking about how she had been burned and gone mad...
This situation.
Qin Haiyao hugged her: "It's fine to just hold you like this."
She tried very hard.
She used up all her strength, trying to convince herself to let it go, and she also wanted Ruan Yihan to let it go, but she just couldn't let it go.
Should we blame it
Is love not enough
No…
Since she has recovered her past memories in this life, Qin Haiyao feels guilty. If it weren't for Ruan Yihan... if it weren't for the love and protection of the past, how could they still be cuddle up with each other and make cakes like this
As soon as Ruan Yihan comes back, she will be absolutely powerful and completely destroy her.
My wings are truly broken, and I will trap her by my side, making her the canary that can never fly away.
only…
Ruan Yihan may know, or may not.
How much Qin Haiyao wanted to stay by her side now, even if it was just for a position.
She has nothing left in this world.
Love is gone, hatred has dissipated, and now, she is like a duckweed, rising and falling, drifting to nowhere. I just want to linger around her fingertips.
The cake was not baked very successfully and was a little burnt.
Ruan Yihan deliberately made a smiling face, and Qin Haiyao put three candles on it. Under the candlelight, she was as beautiful as a fairy, gentle and calm, just as when they first met, which fascinated Ruan Yihan.
Ruan Yihan stared at her for a long time and asked softly, "Why three candles?"
Qin Haiyao's heartbeat quickened a little. The warmth of the candlelight hitting her face gave her some courage. "Ah Han, you have no memory of your first life, but do you still remember your last life?"
Suddenly mentioned the previous life.
Ruan Yihan's eyes were a little dim.
Well, this kind of candlelight does overlap with the previous life.
On her 30th birthday, Qin Haiyao also came to see her in this way and celebrated it with her with her grandmother.
Now, maybe it’s really time to say goodbye, so I miss the past.
Qin Haiyao looked into Ruan Yihan's eyes, clasped her hands together and closed her eyes devoutly.
"If possible, Ah Han, let's give ourselves five years and not let go so quickly, okay?"
People are greedy.
We agreed to end everything in one day.
But the moment of ending really came.
Qin Haiyao couldn't bear to let go again. She wanted to hug Ruan Yihan and tell her that she regretted it. She wanted to make this day last forever...
Ruan Yihan stared at Qin Haiyao in a daze. Under the candlelight, her facial features were soft and gentle. A line of tears slid down her cheeks. She whispered softly, "This is the last wish I made to the gods."
She had paid too much for the entanglement in her previous two lives.
I shouldn't be greedy for anything anymore.
But she just couldn't control it.
Five years.
How many five years are there in a lifetime
But only this delaying tactic can make Ah Han turn back... and have the possibility of coming back to see her.
Ruan Yihan is different from her. After returning, she has a grandmother, friends, and a career waiting for her to inherit.
And Qin Haiyao only has her.
She gently touched the paper cranes in her pocket. This was the last bet in her life. No matter whether she won or lost, she would never try to earn it again.
She is tired.
She will wait for her here until she comes back.
Ruan Yihan wiped the tears from her face. She hugged Qin Haiyao quietly, her voice choked with sobs: "Okay."
This answer is the most beautiful birthday gift in the world.
Qin Haiyao smiled at Ruan Yihan, her eyes filled with a scene more beautiful than the candlelight. She buried her head in Ruan Yihan's arms and said softly, "I'll wait for you."
Neither of them had much appetite for this cake.
In the end, Ruan Yihan held Qin Haiyao and sat in the small courtyard looking at the stars.
Ruan Yihan bent one leg and hugged Qin Haiyao like she had done many times before.
Now, Qin Haiyao's long hair falls on her shoulders, and she is pure and beautiful, like a fairy.
The moonlight is bleak and lingering.
Sprinkle on both of them.
Qin Haiyao looked at the moon in the distance and couldn't help asking, "Ah Han, who will you watch the moon with in the future?"
Such words made Ruan Yihan feel depressed and painful. In an hour, the midnight bell would ring.
She hugged Qin Haiyao and held her tightly.
The wind blew and blinded Qin Haiyao's eyes. She propped herself up with her hands and turned her head to kiss Ruan Yihan.
Passionate, crazy, tender, hot...
Ah Han, Ah Han, Ah Han...
Don't forget her.
In the small courtyard next door, I don’t know if it was Jiang Zhenyue, but she actually started playing music.
Someone like her would actually listen to "The Most Romantic Thing".
"The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you, until we are old and can't go anywhere..."
In the final moment of madness, Qin Haiyao put all her emotions into this kiss. She was crazy, she was unbridled, she was like a rose that was about to burn out, leaving no room for anything else.
Ruan Yihan's mouth was bitten and smelled of blood and tears.
They kissed in the moonlight.
They were entangled for three lifetimes.
At this moment, it is finally time to say goodbye.
At the end.
Qin Haiyao was panting and leaning weakly on Ruan Yihan. She looked into her eyes and wanted to keep her one more time, but she couldn't say it.
The car is already waiting outside the door.
Qin Haiyao didn't dare to look. She was packing Ruan Yihan's luggage seriously.
In fact, she didn't have much luggage, but she couldn't bear to leave. Qin Haiyao lowered her head and packed all of Ruan Yihan's clothes for the past few days.
Ruan Yihan stood in front of the window, looking out, motionless.
When she was done cleaning up, Qin Haiyao secretly kept Ruan Yihan's shirt. That was the shirt she always wore when she walked around bare-legged in front of Ruan Yihan.
She placed her pink paper crane inside.
This was once all the faith she relied on to climb out of the abyss, and it was the mark of Ruan Yihan's love. Now, she finally let go and left it to her.
"Dong, Dong, Dong", the clock struck twelve.
The evening primrose in the vase on the table met its fate of decay and withering.
Qin Haiyao's body stiffened, and her hands and feet went cold at that moment. Ruan Yihan turned her head to look at her. She walked over and gently held Qin Haiyao in her arms.
Feel her trembling.
Ruan Yihan lowered her head, and the tears in her eyes fell on Xiaohai's face, "I..."
She wanted to ask Qin Haiyao to wait for her, but that was too cruel.
She will come out.
She will definitely come out.
No matter whether it takes five years or a few years, she will always overcome her inner demons and come out of it. At that time, she will give Qin Haiyao a clean and passionate self as before.
No matter how reluctant I am, the moment has finally arrived.
Ruan Yihan left, and her fragrance still lingered in the air. Qin Haiyao stood there for a full ten minutes, until the car completely disappeared in the moonlight. She stretched out a hand with a sense of loss and grabbed in the air, trying to catch a trace of the remaining scent, but there was nothing.
Qin Haiyao stood alone in the room for a long time.
Even though it was only one day, it felt like a lifetime.
Ruan Yihan’s figure can be seen in every corner of the room, and they are the places where they laugh and cry.
Qin Haiyao walked away for a while, then she went into the kitchen and took out the cake that Ruan Yihan had made for her.
There was a slight burnt smell on it. Qin Haiyao sat on the cold floor. She took a spoon, put it into her mouth in big mouthfuls, and forced herself to swallow it.
After a moment, the smell merged with her tears. Qin Haiyao couldn't bear it anymore. She hugged herself and cried alone.
In the car.
Ruan Yihan looked out the window, holding the thousand paper cranes in her hands, and silently shedding tears.
The driver is Wannian, who was newly assigned by grandma. He is not good at talking, but he is very meticulous in his work, and most importantly, he is absolutely loyal.
He stared at Ruan Yihan for a while, and said softly, "Boss Ruan, I just received a call from Miss Jiang. She said she won't leave yet. She hasn't had enough of living here yet. Let's go back first."
Ruan Yihan wiped the tears from her face and nodded, "Yeah."
All the way back home, Ruan Yihan's mind was filled with Qin Haiyao. When she got home, her grandmother came out on crutches to greet her. Ruan Yihan bit her lip as she walked over. Her grandmother hugged her tightly, "Okay, okay, we're home, ok?"
…
In fact, it is not Jiang Zhenyue’s character to stay in one place for too long.
But she always had a vague feeling of uneasiness in her heart. She always felt that she needed to stop and wait, but she didn't know what to wait for.
This half month.
Jiang Zhenyue would come and chat with Qin Haiyao whenever she had time. Qin Haiyao wore Buddhist beads on her wrist and had a Buddha statue in her room. She often stayed in the room for the whole day.
When she came out, she was often in tears. Jiang Zhenyue knew that she was sad, but didn't know how to comfort her. In the end, everything turned into a silent sigh.
After Ruan Yihan returned, she devoted all her efforts to her work.
Now, in just one year, she has grown into the undisputed president of the Ruan Group.
Her methods became more and more drastic and decisive, and no one under her dared to question anything as long as it was her request.
Not only Yi Yang, but also Nanyang, she took on the responsibility.
Grandma Ruan knew why she was doing all this and what she was waiting for. She wanted to say a few words of comfort several times, but in the end, every word she said was blocked by her granddaughter's stubborn gaze.
Song He went to find Ruan Yihan. Now Ruan Yihan not only kept a distance from her but also from her subordinates.
At Song He's repeated request, she got together with a few friends and Cindy.
Cindy has changed a lot. When she came out of the drug rehabilitation center, she was faced with the death of both her parents, bankruptcy, and nothing.
Song He tried his best to help her, but Cindy seemed unable to get out of that shadow. Even this time when she came to Ye Gui Ren Bar, Sister Hui's eyes were always fixed on her with passion, and even a blind man could see the infatuation in her heart.
Ruan Yihan leaned on the sofa and watched Wang Di singing. Wang Di was very good. Back then, she promised that if she helped her solve the problem of Zheng Yi, she would promote her to the top.
In just over half a year, Wang Di has gone from an unknown third-tier star to a first-tier celebrity. After training, she has become more elegant. When she stands on the stage and picks up the microphone, the people below will cheer for a while.
She fulfilled her wish and became a superstar.
Wang Di held the microphone and sang a song "Forbidden Zone" with seductive lyrics and sexy eyes.
Even her every frown, smile and glance were exactly the same as Qin Haiyao's.
Ruan Yihan kept staring at her without blinking, and the friends around her were smiling ambiguously, thinking that there might be a chance between the two of them.
Song He was speechless, "What a bunch of idiots. Is Ah Han looking at Wang Di? It's obvious from her eyes that she is missing my sister Hai."
Sister Hai...
This name has been away from us for so long that many people have even forgotten it.
Song He looked around for people who didn't have good eyesight. She walked over to Ruan Yihan and sat down. "Ah Han, if you miss me, just go back and see me."
Cindy, who had been silent all the time, raised her head. She didn't know much about what happened in the Ruan and Qin families.
After all, it was Qin Qin who arranged for her parents to die. Everyone knew the pain in her heart and didn't dare to mention the past in front of her easily.
Ruan Yihan was silent. She turned her eyes away, picked up the wine beside her and drank it all.
Wang Di walked down from the stage. She sat next to Ruan Yihan, lit a cigarette, held it between her fingers and looked at Ruan Yihan.
Every movement she made was a deliberate imitation of Qin Haiyao.
for what
Everyone understands.
Wang Di's eyes were blurry. She looked at Ruan Yihan and said, "If you want, I can be a shadow."
In the past six months, she has met all kinds of people, including some big names in the industry. They have money and power.
Many things can be obtained by Wang Di as long as he asks.
But when she was in pain, she often thought of Ruan Yihan, her pure eyes, and the way she hated and loved Qin Haiyao.
She was very envious of such a relationship, and from the initial envy and yearning, it gradually changed.
She knew that they couldn't go back because of their family.
In this world, no one likes to enjoy loneliness and embrace pain. Wang Di hopes Ruan Yihan can get out of it.
Ruan Yihan stared at Wang Di for a moment, stood up, and left only one sentence.
"You are not her."
Such deliberate approach would disgust her, except for Qin Haiyao.
Song He looked at Wang Di who was obviously hurt and shook her head. This girl, how could she be so stupid? She walked out and saw Hui Jie who was drinking to drown her sorrows at the bar. She had waited for Cindy for so long and thought that they would be together smoothly after she came out.
She could accept anything, no matter that Cindy could never go back to the past, and even because she was beaten by people arranged by Qin Qin in the drug rehabilitation center, her right leg was already a little lame, and her whole energy and spirit seemed to be deprived, and she was no longer the same person she used to be, but Sister Hui still looked affectionate, wanting to warm her and heal her.
She tried her best to let go, but Cindy refused to accept it.
It was midnight.
Cindy drank bottle after bottle of wine. She looked up at Sister Hui beside her and said, "Is Qin Qin really dead?"
She never believed that such a vicious woman would leave so quickly, without even waiting for her to come back.
Sister Hui nodded, and Cindy took another gulp of wine. She looked at Sister Hui and asked, "Where is her daughter?"
…
Winter in the mountains is always extremely cold.
Second uncle, Huang Lan and Qin Shan all wanted to come and see Xiaohai, and the two sisters even asked many times, but Xiaohai refused every time.
She doesn't want to meet too many people.
Whenever she saw them, she couldn't help but ask about Ruan Yihan's news, and she was afraid that the strength she had finally built up would collapse in an instant.
Jiang Zhenyue has been here for quite some time. Early in the morning, she drank the porridge Xiaohai cooked and said softly, "Xiaohai, I will be back early tomorrow morning."
Qin Haiyao, who was picking up some side dishes for her, froze. She was silent for a while and smiled faintly: "Really?"
During this period, although the two of them didn't talk much, they had already become friends.
Jiang Zhenyue looked into her eyes, "Mr. Qin has come to me. If you..."
"I'm not going back."
Qin Haiyao said that she would wait here for Ruan Yihan until she came back.
This is how she has been all her life. This is her only wish, another kind of obsession.
No one can stay with anyone for a lifetime.
As a friend, Jiang Zhenyue has done his best for her and Ahan.
Because Yueyue was leaving, Qin Haiyao thought about making her favorite roast lamb in the evening. In fact, she had been a vegetarian for some time and hadn't eaten meat for a long time. She went to the market and personally selected the meat and bought it back.
During her stay in the village, Qin Haiyao would often go to the village clinic to help out.
She provides free medical consultations, but her skills are much better than those of the village doctors.
At the beginning, the villagers were still grumbling, wondering how could someone be so kind as to help with free medical treatment and even pay out of their own pockets when seeing the poor people.
But later on, Qin Haiyao's skills became better and better, and he cured more and more people, not only from his own village, but also from neighboring villages.
Among them, there are many handsome guys expressing their love.
Every time Qin Haiyao heard this, she smiled and shook her head: "I'm sorry, I have a lover."
Does Dr. Qin have a lover
This is a common knowledge. A beauty like her should have a lover. While her suitors are sad, they are all curious to see who the other party is and how he could have such a smart and kind woman.
But after waiting for several months, I didn't see a single person.
Whenever there was something good going on, they would go and harass Jiang Zhenyue. Jiang Zhenyue didn't have the good temper that Xiaohai did. She ate peanuts and frowned: "Go, go, go, what are you asking? Be careful or I'll blow your head off."
She looked at Qin Haiyao and sighed softly.
Xiao Hai healed many people.
But the one who needs healing the most is herself.
Jiang Zhenyue was very afraid that Qin Haiyao and Ruan Yihan would miss each other in this life. Although Xiaohai had no physical problems, she felt that her spirit was close to collapse.
One rainy night, there were lightning, thunder and strong winds.
Jiang Zhenyue originally came here with the cat in her arms, wanting to watch a movie with Xiaohai and chat so that she wouldn't be too sad.
Weather like this always makes people miss the past.
Although it couldn't make her miss Ruan Yihan less, a little bit of companionship would at least make her feel less painful.
However, Jiang Zhenyue couldn't find Xiao Hai after looking around for a while after entering the house. Finally, he found her in the sea of flowers.
That was where Ruan Yihan kissed her.
Xiao Hai sat there quietly in the rain, with a blank look in her eyes. Jiang Zhenyue was terrified. She walked over and put the raincoat on her from behind: "Xiao Hai, what are you doing here?"
She ran to this desolate mountain in such heavy rain. What if she met some bad guy
Qin Haiyao looked at the heavy rain in the distance. Her lips were wet by the rain and were bright red like flower petals. "Yueyue, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for her."
Every morning when she wakes up, she gives herself hope.
But late at night, that's when hope is shattered.
Qin Haiyao has been dreaming about her mother recently. In the dream, Qin Qin no longer seems to resent her. She just stares at her and whispers, "You are destined to be like your mother in this life. Xiaohai, this is the punishment you deserve. I'll be waiting for you down there."
She woke up from her dreams every night and wanted to escape, but she had no way.
So painful, so hurt, so sad...
Jiang Zhenyue felt distressed and uneasy. She reached out and hugged Xiaohai. Xiaohai pointed to an open space next to her that she had surrounded with flowers.
It was square and the size was just right according to her calculations.
"Yueyue, if I really can't wait for her, can you bury me here one day in the future?"
Qin Haiyao wiped the tears from her face and looked into Jiang Zhenyue's eyes. "My mother hates me so much. If I really go to the underworld, she probably won't recognize me as her daughter anymore... It's a tradition here that a tombstone must be erected. Ah Han promised me that she would marry me. If I can't wait, I won't have any status when she's alive. If I die, can I be buried as her wife?"
…
Jiang Zhenyue looked at her, and at that moment, she felt so heartbroken for Qin Haiyao.
She also knew that in this world, apart from Ruan Yihan, no one else could pull Qin Haiyao out of the quagmire.
Jiang Zhenyue had always believed that Ahan loved Xiaohai very much.
But now, she finally realized that Xiao Hai loved Ruan Yihan so much that her name was engraved on his soul.
Xiao Hai loves Ruan Yi Han much more than her.
Cindy drove over when it was just getting dark. She deliberately stole a leather jacket of Ruan Yihan from Ruan's house while her grandmother wasn't paying attention.
Along the way, she was tossing and turning in her mind. She reached into her bag countless times to touch the knife, hesitant.
In the end, she thought of the tragic death of her parents, gritted her teeth, and found where Qin Haiyao lived according to the address she got from Sister Hui and Song He.
There were some mushrooms drying in the yard, and in the yard was a blind stray dog that Qin Haiyao had rescued on the road.
She didn't even lock the door.
Although the security situation in the village is relatively good and the local people are simple and honest, Cindy was still surprised. She slowly pushed open the door.
Qin Haiyao was bending over to cook mutton soup. When she heard the voice, she thought it was Jiang Zhenyue who came. "Yueyue is here? Wait a minute, we can eat soon."
Cindy held her breath and slowly took out a knife from her pocket.
After waiting for a while, there was no response, but the sound of a dog howling was heard. Qin Haiyao felt something was wrong. Usually, Jiang Zhenyue would chatter when she came over, and even if she didn't respond, she would still chat on her own. Why was it so quiet now
Qin Haiyao turned around hesitantly. The moment she saw Cindy, she looked at her clothes and the spoon in her hand fell to the ground.
Maybe I was looking forward to it too much.
At that moment, she thought it was Ruan Yihan who came.
Cindy stared at her intently, gritting her teeth. She knew that Qin Haiyao knew her. She also heard from Song He that Qin Haiyao was very capable, no less than some female agent, and she was praised as a god by her.
She knew that this time, she might not be able to kill Qin Haiyao.
But Cindy was tortured day and night by the photos of her parents' tragic deaths. She couldn't stand it anymore and would fight to the death even if there was a glimmer of hope.
Although Cindy has been a bit of a jerk and has many bad habits since she was a child, this is the first time she has pointed a knife at someone else.
She gritted her teeth and moved closer step by step, her hands holding the knife shaking nervously.
Qin Haiyao looked at the knife in her hand, then looked at her, and everything in her eyes was clear.
"My shoes are torn, my hat is torn, my robes are torn..."
Outside the door, Jiang Zhenyue's elegant singing voice floated in. She was holding a bag of beer in her hand. She came here to eat for free.
Cindy's heart trembled, knowing that if she didn't take action, she would never have another chance. She only took action at that moment, gritted her teeth and used all her strength, she thought Qin Haiyao would resist and struggle.
But when the blood soaked her clothes, Qin Haiyao did not dodge at all. She just looked at her calmly, as if she did not feel any pain. She looked at Cindy calmly: "Is she okay?"
The blood was so hot, Cindy's hands were shaking and she couldn't speak at all.
Qin Haiyao sighed softly, "I've been waiting for her for so long, why hasn't she come to see me yet?"
Cindy's eyes suddenly widened. She looked at Qin Haiyao with blood flowing from the right side of his chest. Her legs went weak and she wanted to pull out the knife.
But at that moment, Qin Haiyao suddenly smiled. She grabbed Cindy's hand, pressed the knife in her hand, and prevented her from leaving.
The air was filled with blood and the smell of death.
"If you see her, tell her I miss her."
This is what Qin Haiyao wanted to say most these days but never dared to say. Her hands were covered in blood. She held down Cindy's knife and stabbed it hard.
Cindy was completely frightened by Jiang Zhenyue's scream. She trembled, looking at the devilish woman in the moonlight, and listened to her soft whisper, "Thank you..."
She waited for her for a long time, but she didn't come.
She really couldn't stand it anymore.
—Ahan, I'm sorry, I lied to you again.
The five-year agreement is too long... I really can't wait any longer.
The days and nights without you seem like years. Now, someone comes to help me escape from all the pain. I am so happy.
Ah Han, I love you.
…
