The moment Yuan Xi came to his senses, he immediately pushed Qiu Zongping away.
He was just too shocked just now and didn't react in time, but now that he has regained his senses, this kind of thing can't be joked casually.
Yuan Xi wiped his mouth in embarrassment with his hand, tried his best to keep a calm tone, and said, "Team Qiu, I made it very clear that day, I will give up this relationship and return to the team in the best condition, don't worry Pressure, don’t feel indebted to me, let alone force yourself to say something... like me.”
He still can't believe it
Looking at Yuan Xi's pretended calm appearance, Qiu Zongping sighed softly in his heart, and said softly: "What are you talking about? Do you think I will be wronged to kiss someone I don't like?"
Yuan Xi was taken aback, and her ears couldn't help but feel slightly hot: "The 'like' you mentioned is just an illusion."
Qiu Zongping said: "I used to think that I didn't like you, that was an illusion."
He gently held Yuan Xi's hand, placed it on his chest, and said in a low voice, "I have you in my heart, always have."
Yuan Xi: "..."
Never thought that Team Qiu, who has always been serious and serious, would say such nasty words.
His fingers were gently held by him and placed on his chest, he could clearly feel the strong muscles under the thin clothes, as well as the beating heart.
His heart beat so fast that Yuan Xi's fingers felt slightly hot.
Yuan Xi quickly withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted, turned her head and looked away, a little afraid to look into his eyes.
Qiu Zongping asked in a low voice: "Will you give me a chance?"
Yuan Xi said: "I have given up."
"I know." Qiu Zongping paused, sorted out his language, and said seriously, "I rejected you before, and you also said that I would give up. Now I've gone back on my word and asked you to stay. You lack a sense of trust, and even feel that I am teasing you. You should not believe me." He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yuan Xi's hair, his movements were extremely gentle, "But it doesn't matter, we still have a long time, trust me Can be retrained. I won't let you down."
Yuan Xi: "..."
Qiu Zongping, who is so gentle and easy to talk, has never been seen in the team before.
In Yuan Xi's impression, the Qiu team has always been very serious, and every chat is about the game and tactics.
Unexpectedly, this man would have such a gentle side.
Yuan Xi's heart was full of mixed feelings. The so-called "stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling face", Qiu Zongping admitted his mistake and confessed, and today he went to pick him up in person in the rain. With such a good attitude, Yuan Xi felt embarrassed to get angry again. That will only make you look very uneducated.
But let him just accept Qiu Zongping like this? How can it be? He's not a pet that comes when you invite it, and goes away when you wave it. If Qiu Zongping slaps him and gives him a candy, will he make a fuss over it
With Yingying by his side during this time, his mood became much clearer, and he also figured out that emotional matters cannot be forced.
If you can't get it, let it go, he has made up his mind to give up Qiu Zongping. He had already chosen to turn left at the intersection, and he didn't want to go back and turn right again.
Yuan Xi took a deep breath, looked at Qiu Zongping, and said in a serious and serious tone: "I really liked you before, but that's all in the past. Do you understand? This feeling is like something you especially liked when you were young. In the palm of my hand, I was worried that it would be broken, and others would not touch it. But when I grew up, I felt that it was nothing more than that. It didn’t matter if I gave it away or was thrown away when my parents cleaned up the room—— Because that cherished feeling can no longer be found.”
It was the first time he stared straight at Qiu Zongping like this, and said frankly: "When I liked you, I secretly hid this feeling in my heart, thinking that you are the best person in the world, and I have a special admiration for you." .But now, I have given up. I just want to be an ordinary teammate with you. After getting to know Yingying, I found that my vision was really too narrow before. The outside world is very exciting, and there are many things waiting for me. Do it, I don't want to waste time on feelings anymore."
"So... please let me go. Let's not bother with this anymore."
What Yuan Xi said was very serious, because it was the truest thought in his heart. He didn't intend to be hypocritical to torture or test Qiu Zongping, he really didn't want to continue entangled. If Yuan Xi in the past only had the Qiu team and the game in his eyes, then Yuan Xi now has a wider world in his eyes.
He wants to go to Mount Tai to watch the sunrise, go to Guilin to see the landscape, go to Suzhou to visit the gardens, and travel all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. He also wants to go boating in Venice, go to Australia to see kangaroos, and go to Russia to see Lake Baikal... There are so many interesting places in the world, and he can't finish them in this life. Why can't he live a chic and exciting life
Don't you think it's annoying for a big man to spend all day with his mother-in-law and mother-in-law
He was really tired, so he really wanted to let go.
…
Facing Yuan Xi's serious gaze, Qiu Zongping couldn't say anything to refute for a moment, he finally realized deeply how precious he had lost. Slowness is really harmful. If he had figured it out earlier, Yuan Xi would not be so sad, or even give up on him.
relief? You are free, so what should I do? I'm stuck in this quagmire and only you can pull me out.
Qiu Zongping clenched his fist lightly to calm himself down quickly, looked at Yuan Xi, and said softly: "It's okay, if you give up on me, then I will make you fall in love with me again." His tone was very decisive , seems to have regained the captain's firmness, "Don't you have a lot of things you want to do? I will do it with you."
"..." Yuan Xi thought that Qiu Zongping would give up if he understood the words clearly. After all, Qiu Zongping's feelings for him should not be that deep, right? Why bother
Unexpectedly, Qiu Zongping would be so stubborn.
He didn't want to continue arguing with the other party, he turned around tiredly and said, "Anyway, I've made it clear, you can do whatever you like."
Yuan Xi ignored Qiu Zongping, and simply lay on the bed and covered his head with the quilt.
Qiu Zongping didn't continue this topic, he slept on the empty bed next to him, and turned off the light.
In the dark room, soon there were only the sound of breathing from the two of them. Although they didn't speak after that, they each had their own concerns, and neither of them could fall asleep.
***
Yuan Xi didn't fall asleep until three o'clock in the morning, and was awakened by a nightmare the next morning. When she woke up, Qiu Zongping had disappeared, and there was a note on the table: "I'm going back to my room first, and I have to go out with my uncle and the others today. Remember to eat breakfast on time."
A row of handwriting is very neat, like print.
Yuan Xi crumpled up the note and threw it into the trash can, quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth and went downstairs to have breakfast.
Counting carefully, there are only two days left in his journey in Bali.
Yuan Xi's original plan was to rest in Bali for ten days, but she met Qiu Zongping and got injured during the rafting. After that, she went out to play with Yingying's group, but she didn't have much time to relax by herself. It just so happened that he didn't bother to go out today, so he stayed in the hotel, lying by the pool and reading a novel very comfortably all day.
After Qiu Zongping came back at night, he took the initiative to knock on the door to look for him. Yuan Xi wanted to pretend he was not there, but Qiu Zongping said, "Don't you want to be friends with me again? How can a friend come to you and not open the door?"
Yuan Xi couldn't argue with him, so he had no choice but to open the door and ask, "What's the matter?"
Qiu Zongping smiled slightly and said, "I want to ask about your itinerary. We will return to China the day after tomorrow, and the flight in the afternoon."
Yuan Xi said, "I'm also going back to China the day after tomorrow, on an afternoon flight."
Sister Qiu Zongyue also booked the hotel on that website. At that time, the website was holding an event, and the air ticket for the afternoon of the day after tomorrow was discounted at half price. Perhaps this was the reason, and she also chose to return to China on this day.
Qiu Zongping said: "Then the day after tomorrow afternoon, shall we arrange a car to go to the airport together?"
Yuan Xi shook her head: "No, I want to go to the market in the morning and go to the airport after lunch."
Qiu Zongping didn't force it, nodded and said: "Okay, you remember to book a car in advance, so as not to be late. If you are late for an international flight, it will be very troublesome to change the ticket."
Yuan Xi nodded: "Don't worry, I'm not a child."
After Qiu Zongping finished speaking, he left. This kind of conversation seemed to return to the time when they were still friends in the team. Yuan Xi was also slightly relieved.
***
The next day, Qiu Zongping didn't come to see him, apparently there were other arrangements, Yuan Xi was happy to go to the beach for an afternoon of surfing, and packed his luggage when he came back in the evening.
In fact, he did not have a good time during this trip to Bali, mainly because there were too many unexpected factors in the middle of the trip, which took up his originally arranged personal time. In the days when I followed Yingying, the domestic tour groups all went to the scenic spots in a casual manner. Yuan Xi actually wanted to participate in some leisure activities. He didn't have time to go to the cliff swimming pool, and he didn't have time to play many water sports. The legendary Many hotel afternoon teas do not have the opportunity to taste...
However, next time you have a chance, you can come again.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xi didn't feel regretful anymore.
On the morning of his return to China, he set the alarm clock to wake up at 8:30, checked out early at the hotel reception after breakfast, and then went shopping in the legendary market with his luggage.
This market has appeared in travel guides many times, and Yuan Xi also went there admiringly, but was disappointed after going there—the road is narrow, crowded, and the things sold are all kinds of handicrafts such as shells and ceramics, which are similar to those in China. There is no difference in the shopping street of various tourist attractions, and it is very messy.
Yuan Xi wandered around without interest, and regretted coming here. Fortunately, there is a pork chop shop with local characteristics nearby, which is delicious. After Yuan Xi was full, she went to wait for the driver at the agreed place.
Because of the oolong problem of not being able to get a taxi before, Yuan Xi learned how to behave today and made an appointment in advance with the driver to pick him up on time.
The driver was very punctual and picked him up at 12:30 and set off for the airport.
Yuan Xi already knew that there would be traffic jams on the road, but today the traffic jams were too severe, and the car almost moved forward slowly like a snail. Seeing that half an hour had passed, Yuan Xi couldn't help feeling a little anxious in her heart: "How long will the traffic jam last?"
The driver was also very helpless: "There is no way, there is an intersection ahead, and there are more cars."
Yuan Xi saw through the window a few people in traffic police uniforms coming on motorcycles and began to direct with gestures at the intersection, and he felt a little comforted in his heart. Sure enough, with the command of the traffic police, they finally passed the congested three-way intersection in fifteen minutes and walked to a relatively smooth road.
From the map, it takes about an hour to get to the airport, so we should be in time.
Yuan Xi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please drive faster, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the plane."
The driver smiled and said, "Okay!"
He stepped on the accelerator, and the car turned quickly at the intersection.
However, the next moment, there was a loud "bang" in his ear—he looked out the window in shock, and saw an electric motorcycle rubbing against the front bumper of the car and flying straight out!
The car was coming from the side road, and that road happened to be downhill, probably because they didn't have time to brake, and the driver just accelerated, so they collided together. A middle-aged woman was sitting on the motorcycle, and there was a seven or eight-year-old child in the back seat. The child was thrown out and lay motionless on the ground.
The driver was frightened and immediately stopped the car on the side of the road to ask the other party if he was okay.
Yuan Xi was sitting in the passenger seat, completely dazed. He was not very sober when he was in a car accident in Shanghai before because he was drunk. pain. But this time, he watched as the electric car was knocked and flew out, and the child fell to the ground with a bloody head.
Could it be... hit someone to death
Yuan Xi's heart trembled, and she froze in the car and almost stopped breathing. In fact, this accident also had his reasons. After all, he was very anxious because of the traffic jam for a long time just now. He kept urging the driver to drive faster. The driver's driving skills are also quite good. There is such an accident as a mage.
Looking at the bloody scene, Yuan Xi's hands and feet were cold and she didn't know what to do.
After a long time, he came back to his senses, and immediately opened the door and got out of the car to check on the situation of the mother and child.
The child was thrown out with blood all over his head. It looked a little scary, but the mother's injury was not too serious, at least she was conscious. She hugged the child, pointed at the driver and said a lot of Bahasa Indonesian. Yuan Xi couldn't understand what she was saying, but from the driver's ugly face, she could guess that she was angry and swearing.
Yuan Xi glanced at the child and suggested, "Why don't you send the child to the hospital first!"
The driver was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "Aren't you going to catch a plane?"
Yuan Xi looked down at his watch and said, "Send them to the hospital and we'll talk about it later. The children's injuries are more important."
I missed the plane, and if I try to change the ticket, I can't leave the mother and child alone. Hit-and-run is going to jail, not to mention that he had an accident abroad, if he left directly, he might make headlines in the news, and it wouldn't be good for anyone if he got into trouble.
Yuan Xi quickly calmed down and said, "Go to the hospital."
The driver looked at Yuan Xi regretfully: "I'm sorry, I drove too fast just now, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up..."
Yuan Xi waved his hand: "It's okay." After he finished speaking, he helped the woman lift the motorcycle up, and gently picked up the child on the ground.
The driver was a little surprised. If it was another guest, he might be blamed for delaying the flight, but this person seemed to be more concerned about the child's injury, and he didn't mind that the flight was likely to be delayed. Although this young man was a bit careless, his friend picked him up when he went to the shopping mall that day, but his character is very kind...
The driver smiled gratefully at Yuan Xi, invited the mother and son into the car, and quickly drove to the nearby hospital.
I went to the hospital for a careful examination. The woman was only slightly injured with scratches on her leg, and the child's forehead was bleeding. It looked a little scary, but after cleaning the blood, it was found that the wound was not deep, and the doctor quickly sterilized it. After it was bandaged, he was asked to do a detailed examination to see if there was any cerebral hemorrhage.
Yuan Xi accompanied her all the time, and proactively paid for the medical expenses in advance.
The driver was very sorry, and said with a bitter face: "I'm really sorry, I should have paid the money..."
Yuan Xi smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to make money, and I also have a lot of responsibility for this matter, so let me pay for it."
When the driver is driving, it is best not to interfere with the people sitting next to him, otherwise the driver is likely to have an accident due to distraction. The driver speaks Chinese very well, the hotel often asks him to pick up and drop off guests, and his driving skills must be fine. Yuan Xi also knows very well that the biggest reason for today's accident is him. He was afraid that he would not be able to catch the flight, so he kept urging the driver to drive faster. Perhaps his urging had inadvertently put a lot of pressure on the driver, so he was distracted and hit someone at the intersection.
He couldn't let go of something like this. If he didn't pay the medical expenses in advance, the money spent today would probably be worth the driver's salary for a month.
The driver thanked Yuan Xi a thousand times and kept bowing to him to say thank you and sorry.
Yuan Xi patted the other party's shoulder: "Stop talking, as long as people are fine."
Fortunately, people are fine. The results of the examination came out quickly, and there were no traces of cerebral hemorrhage or fractures on the child's head, which were all traumatic injuries.
Yuan Xi heaved a sigh of relief, and finally let go of her hanging heart.
He took out another wad of rupees from his wallet and handed it to the mother, and said apologetically, "We were in a hurry to go to the airport and bumped into you by accident. I'm really sorry. Fortunately, the child is fine. This money is for the child to buy Let's have something to eat."
The mother couldn't understand, so the driver translated it for her.
She took a closer look at Yuan Xi, and found that the young man had fair skin, bright eyes, and was very polite and educated. She pushed the money back and said a few words, the driver turned around and translated: "She said, she doesn't want money, you can help pay for the medical expenses. Since the child is fine, go to the airport quickly, don't delay the flight. "
Yuan Xi was startled, he didn't expect this mother to be so talkative, so he quickly bowed to her and said, "Thank you."
Fortunately, the child also woke up at this time, the woman walked out of the hospital with the child, Yuan Xi was completely relieved, and set off to the airport with the driver.
The driver tried to speed up the car, but Yuan Xi didn't dare to rush him any more. I looked down at my watch, and it was already four o'clock. International flights need to pass through the customs early, and I might not be able to make it to the airport in time, and I don't know if the ticket can be changed. Yuan Xi was thinking about how to change the ticket. At this moment, the phone rang suddenly. He opened it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
Yuan Xi picked up the phone and asked doubtfully, "Hello, who is it?"
"It's me." The voice in my ear was low and sweet, and it was actually Qiu Zongping.
Yuan Xi was stunned, and asked, "How do you know my number?"
"Let's not talk about this for now. You didn't reply to my WeChat, and you didn't answer the phone call just now. Is something wrong?" Qiu Zongping's voice was a little anxious, "The airport is going to enter the customs soon. I'm at the customs security gate, and I haven't seen you all this time?"
"..." Yuan Xi was silent for a moment, before saying, "There was an accident on the road, I just got out of the hospital, and I'm just leaving for the airport now, so I might not be in time."
"Are you okay?" Qiu Zongping's voice suddenly raised, with a trace of tension in his tone, "Are you injured?"
"No." Yuan Xi explained, "We accidentally bumped into a mother and child and sent them to the hospital. Fortunately, they are all fine."
"That's good." Qiu Zongping breathed a sigh of relief, and his voice softened, "I'll wait for you at the airport, you come here first, if you miss the flight, we'll find a way."
"Don't wait for me, aren't you going back to China with your uncle? You go through the security check first." Yuan Xi said.
"I'll wait for you." Qiu Zongping said stubbornly, "I won't leave you abroad alone."
"..." Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say, after a moment of silence, he had no choice but to say "You really don't have to wait for me", and then hung up the phone.
***
Airport lobby.
Qiu Zongyue looked at his watch and said, "Ping, let's go, if you don't go through the security check, it will be too late."
Qiu Zongping suddenly took his luggage from the check-in belt, turned around and said, "Sister, you should go back to China first, and take good care of your uncle and aunt."
Qiu Zongyue said in surprise: "Aren't you going back? What happened?"
Qiu Zongping said: "Something happened to Yuan Xi and he couldn't catch the flight. I'll stay and wait for him."
Qiu Zongyue frowned: "This ticket is a special ticket I booked online, and it cannot be refunded or changed. If you don't go back now, you have to buy a new ticket. Recently, it is the peak tourist season, and it is not easy to buy a ticket to return home. You may have to pay for it." Buy a ticket for a week later. Besides, haven’t there been rumors that the volcano is about to erupt these days
She was interrupted by Qiu Zongping before she finished speaking: "I know everything you said, so I can't leave Yuan Xi here alone."
Qiu Zongyue was startled, she saw a very firm expression on her younger brother's face.
Qiu Zongping said: "You should have guessed it, yes, I like him. Before I asked you what you think of men liking men, I was still hesitating and not sure about my feelings, but now I am completely sure. I really do I like him very much, he is in trouble and can't go back to the country, at this time, I can't selfishly leave him and go back by myself, in that case, what qualifications do I have to mention the word "like?"
Qiu Zongyue: "..."
Qiu Zongping looked at his sister and said seriously: "I want to accompany him. Uncle, please find a reason to explain to me."
Qiu Zongyue was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, and said: "You were out of your wits in those few days, and I have already noticed that something is wrong. Although I guessed that you and Yuan Xi had this possibility, I never thought that you really... you are not Have you always liked girls?"
Qiu Zongping said: "But Yuan Xi is special, it has nothing to do with gender, I just like him."
Qiu Zongyue: "..."
She had never seen such a gentle look on her younger brother's face. It seemed that this time he was completely involved.
Qiu Zongyue gently rubbed her temples: "But at home..."
Qiu Zongping said: "I will find a solution." He paused, looked at Qiu Zongyue seriously and said, "Sister, you will understand me, right?"
Qiu Zongyue looked at him helplessly, and said: "You have been very assertive since you were a child. You can make your own decisions about your own affairs. My sister will only support you."
Qiu Zongping smiled slightly, stretched out his arms to hug his sister, and said, "Have a safe journey, and give me news when you return home."
She stood at the security checkpoint, looking at the back of her younger brother who was carrying his luggage and turned away—
His back is tall and straight, and his steps are steady and firm. Because this time, he found the path he should go, and he will never turn back.
