"A little nervous." Ye Fei said truthfully.

"You have been prepared very seriously." Zhao Xiaoting said that she did not understand, "It is not like your style to worry about gains and losses. A forum feels more important than finding a job."

Ye Fei pursed her lips and said, "Go abroad for free, a rare opportunity."

Zhao Xiaoting washed her face and brushed her teeth, and told her: "It's already midnight, haven't you heard of all kinds of water house ghost stories?"

"Don't scare me!" Ye Fei became nervous for no reason, and subconsciously touched the frangipani on the necklace.

Zhao Xiaoting said: "By the way, if you really go to Singapore, please bring me a necklace."

"What does it look like?"

"The one you wear every day is very good, it looks good."

Ye Fei has the heart to hide her privately: "This was bought in a small village, and I won't pass by this time."

"It's okay, isn't there such a flower over there, it must be similar in other stores."

Ye Fei nodded, agreed with his lips, and thought to himself, forgive me, even if I go to the silver store, I will definitely not bring you the same style.

She rubbed the silver frangipani, and feared that she would touch it every day, it would quickly oxidize and turn black, and she would inevitably remember Chen Jiajun. In the night, bits and pieces of memory are like a little high tide, gently surrounding her. There seemed to be the touch and breath of his kiss on the lips, and his eyes were full of smiles, staring into his own eyes.

If you succeed in the interview tomorrow, you will be able to meet in Singapore soon, which is exciting to think of. Ye Fei couldn't help but imagine what things he would like to say to him after the reunion, and where to go together, the more he thought about it, the more detailed it was, just like writing a script in his mind.

First of all, it is necessary to obtain the qualifications to visit. Gotta go! Miss him, miss his hug, his kiss, his breath, his voice. Ye Fei's heart was touched by numerous emotions, holding the cool quilt, even more unable to sleep. She made a wish that she must see him in her dream.

Preferably, he also dreamed of himself. In that case, is it a reunion of two people

Chen Jiajun hadn't drunk so much wine for a long time, and Scar was silent, so he drank it cup by cup. At night, I only feel my throat dry, my head is dizzy, and my eyelids are too heavy to pick up. The body was stuffed with hot coals, and he fell on the bed, not forgetting to turn on the air conditioner.

Scar said that he would give up drinking, and he has already expressed his attitude to restrain himself with strict rules. Chloe proposed to leave at this time, and I am afraid that he will not come back again. For their decision, Chen Jiajun has no way to comment or change. He just missed Ye Fei exceptionally, with some worries and a hint of happiness in his heart.

In the moody, there are cool fingers on the forehead and cheeks, the kind of considerate and gentle touch makes people feel relaxed. Is Ye Fei back? He couldn't help calling her name.

The next moment, soft and moist lips pressed against him and kissed his dry lips gently. The heat of the body seemed to have found a way to vent, his hands wrapped around the opponent's head, he couldn't help but want more.

Thinking of Ye Fei's attachment and unwilling expression in his mind, she put her hand on his chest, bowed her head and kissed him, with her long hair hanging down in front of the two mouths, he stretched out his hand and brushed it away.

Chen Jiajun was shocked. Now, what he feels in his hand is short hair, with small pieces passing through his fingers. He realized in half asleep and half awake that the feeling of this kiss was very strange.

Ye Fei is still in Beijing.

As if falling from the edge of a cliff, he was awakened suddenly, raising his hand to push away the person in front of him. The other party fell to the ground and hummed softly and painfully. Chen Jiajun turned around and reached out to pat the lamp beside the bed. Seeing Qiu Meixin with tears on her face.

He was silent for a while, not knowing what to say. With a headache that was about to split, he squinted his eyes and rubbed his temples vigorously. He was a little more sober, and after a glance, the clothes were properly put on him, and he felt a little relieved.

Chen Jiajun took a step forward, helped Qiu Meixin to sit on the chair against the wall, and took two steps back, saying: "I'm sorry." His voice was hoarse and muddy after drinking.

Qiu Meixin smiled sadly: "I should say I'm sorry."

The desk lamp only illuminates a small space in front of the bed, and something seems to have fallen on the semi-dark floor a little farther away. Chen Jiajun walked over, leaned over and picked it up. It was the bracelet he gave to Ye Fei. The small shell woven between the blue and green beads fell to the ground and dropped a corner. He rubbed his fingers twice and held it in the palm of his hand.

Qiu Meixin felt ashamed and bowed her head to apologize again: "It should have been returned to you long ago, I'm sorry."

Chen Jiajun was not fast in speaking, and he spoke clearly every word: "Go back and rest early. What happened just now is assumed to have not happened, and I won't tell anyone."

Qiu Meixin's tears welled up: "Yes, it's just like it never happened. To you, it doesn't matter at all."

Chen Jiajun frowned, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I am very grateful for your help over the years. However, no matter what I say now, you probably don't want to hear it."

Qiu Meixin bit her lip: "Then I say, listen."

Chen Jiajun thought for a while: "Okay, let's go to the store."

Qiu Meixin shook her head: "I don't want others to hear or see."

He checked the time: "It's late, then let's go to the living room." He went to the outside, turned on the ceiling light, the room became brighter, and opened the door halfway, sitting opposite the door.

Qiu Meixin felt sad, and the magnanimity in Chen Jiajun's eyes was a polite alienation for her.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you."

"Ok."

"I was going to be here, so I called the store and Chloe said that something went wrong here."

"Where to go?"

"Planning to go to New Zealand for a period of time, a friend bought a farm there."

"How long does it take?"

"I don't know. Maybe a few months, maybe a few years."

Chen Jiajun was silent, the most critical question, I don't know whether to ask.

Qiu Meixin saw his hesitation, took a deep breath, and whispered: "I won't marry Daming..."

"He treats you wholeheartedly."

Qiu Meixin laughed mockingly: "Unfortunately, I am not. Would you fall in love with someone just because they are kind to you?"

Chen Jiajun was silent.

"I thought, I would. I thought my life was peaceful and stable, and I lived happily. I was even fortunate when Jocelyn had an accident. Fortunately, I didn't come to the island to look for you when you first left the United States, otherwise Even if you don’t refuse, you may still have to experience the pain she suffered.” Qiu Meixin’s tears slipped down, “I have a stable life in a big city, and occasionally I can come to the island to see you. I still think that this kind of friend status The distance is good. But this summer, I know what I want most. Even if I have lost it, I can’t go wrong..."

Chen Jiajun listened quietly to her statement with a serious expression. In Qiu Meixin's eyes, his calm silence was tantamount to a kind of coldness.

"I haven't thought about what to fight for, don't be nervous." She smiled bitterly, "I just realized that the kind of passionate feelings will not disappear completely with age or when someone leaves. It’s just that I haven’t met yet. If I marry Daming like this, I’ll always regret it.”

"You two are my good friends." Chen Jiajun said, "Have you talked with him seriously about this matter?"

"I have delayed the wedding several times before, and he didn't say anything." Qiu Meixin looked down, "I haven't mentioned the cancellation of the marriage contract."

"I hope that you have carefully thought about it, and you have to talk frankly with him."

Qiu Meixin shook her head: "I have lived with him peacefully for so many years, and I haven't made up my mind to marry him. Now this situation, do you think it is possible? Do you still want to persuade me?"

She was a little emotional.

Chen Jiajun said: "If my statement or attitude is inappropriate, I apologize to you."

"No, you didn't. From the beginning to the end, I deceived myself and others." Qiu Meixin wiped the tears from her face, "I always wonder if, if I were brave, would it not be what I am now."

"There is no way to hypothesize this matter." Chen Jiajun looked at her with a calm and firm gaze, "She is the one who meets that person."

"I have always been curious about what attracted you to Ye Fei. Because she is like Jocelyn, simple and cheerful, isn't she?"

"Simple and cheerful... can be used to describe many people." Chen Jiajun's complexion softened, "But Ye Fei is Ye Fei, she is not a substitute for anyone."

Ye Fei went to attend the final round of interviews, feeling somewhat nervous. The judges include two experts and scholars, a foreign teacher, a representative of the foundation, and a teacher in charge of student exchanges. The whole interview was conducted in English. Ye Fei practiced in front of the mirror countless times. When he really introduced himself, his voice still trembled slightly after the last few sentences.

She was a little annoyed at her embarrassment. It was not that she had experienced similar scenes before, but this time she was extremely nervous. Because this opportunity is too important for her.

When entering the question and answer session, there was not much time to think, most of which had to answer quickly with the first reaction, but Ye Fei calmed down instead. Several judges nodded frequently, and an expert asked: "You are not a student of environment or ecology-related majors. How did you think of applying for a sub-forum in this field?"

"I have some immature ideas, please teachers for advice." Ye Fei settled down, "First of all, marine protection is a wide-ranging issue. It is not a purely natural issue, but also a social issue. Multi-disciplinary and multi-field cooperation and discussion." She anticipated that the reviewer would question her academic background and figured out how to deal with it. At this time, she talked openly, and her mood gradually relaxed. "Moreover, this student forum is not An academic seminar is more of an opportunity for young people from various countries to understand, communicate and learn from each other. The inspiration from today’s exchange and collision may be the cornerstone of tomorrow’s cooperation."

The judges nodded slightly. The foreign teacher smiled and asked, "What if this is an academic seminar?"

"Then I... Maybe I will change to a more academic report." Ye Fei also laughed, "However, to be honest, with the academic level of most master students, the significance of the so-called academic research is actually not great."

The judges laughed. Ye Fei quickly defended: "I am not questioning the meaning of the forum. On the contrary, I think it is wise to set the starting point on friendly exchanges."

Ye Fei felt that she was a little overwhelmed in the end, and accidentally forgot the tone of the interview set for herself at the beginning: serious and lively, sincere and humble. After being so anxious for two days, I opened the e-mail box and found a confirmation letter from the forum organizing committee lying quietly inside. The first line is the conspicuous Congratulations! Each letter is filled with joy.

Ye Fei almost jumped out of the bed and kissed her with her notebook. She was overjoyed and hurriedly made a list of trips. After dinner, she went to the supermarket to purchase and checked the expiration date on the food bag. Only then did she feel that she had come too early.

She dialed Chen Jiajun's number, rang twice before hanging up, and he quickly dialed it back. In the morning, Ye Fei forwarded the admission letter to Chen Jiajun's mailbox. With a smile in his voice, he said to her, "Congratulations!"

"Actually, I had a foreboding that there would be mine!" Ye Fei smiled, "You said that by coincidence, this forum is the first this year. Isn't this just to provide me with an opportunity? God takes care of me like that."

She talked about the interview experience, and heard Chen Jiajun's answering voice suddenly louder and louder, she asked: "Are you walking around with the speakerphone?"

"Yes. But rest assured, I have heard every word you say."

"Talk to me on the phone and pay attention. Even if you want to talk and do things, you can wear headphones."

"There are earphones, but there is nowhere to put the phone." He replied, "I just took a shower, and I surrounded a sarong. Tell me where to put the phone."

Ye Fei walked to the cashier and just saw the row of small boxes, thinking of Chen Jiajun wearing the sarong, whispered, "Rogue."

He laughed in a low voice: "Who is the rogue? Is it sarong? I'm still you?"

"I'm in the supermarket, there are many people around, don't tease me!" Ye Fei's face was hot.

"Go to the supermarket to buy food again?"

"Yes, but I bought it for you." She chuckled, "Don't you like small walnuts and shredded beef? I will bring more different flavors this time."

"There is one month left."

"Yeah, so I think I came early." She sighed, "Time flies really slowly."

Chen Jiajun wanted to cross the airwaves and hug his little girl. He paused: "Ye Fei, tell you something."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"That's it... I found the bracelet you lost."

Ye Fei was pleasantly surprised: "Yeah, I found it! Did you find it in the sea? It's not easy. I thought it was buried in the sand or was eaten by fish."

"It's not me, it's a friend."

"No matter who it is, I found it anyway, bring it to me!" Ye Fei smiled, "I don't have to touch the silver necklace every day, I will be blacked out."

"The little shell on it is cracked. Let me ask Langley to buy you a new one."

"No." Ye Fei didn't mind, "I'm very happy to get it back. That was the first gift you gave me. It has a different meaning. I don't want to change it."

"Well, no change."

"My friend also asked me where I bought the frangipani necklace and asked me to bring it back." Ye Fei laughed and said, "I don't want to bring it. Is it too stingy?"

"There are other beautiful ones, dolphins, small fishes, and sea turtles. Next time you buy a few more, you can take them to your friends."

"No, you don't need to buy it, I will buy it!" Ye Fei replied decisively, "You can only give it to me alone!"

Chen Jiajun laughed: "Okay, I will give it to you."
