761 A star (1)

As the crowd dispersed, Xie tingxi handed his wallet to qu Huaian and asked him to pay the bill. He then tugged on his tie and went outside to get some fresh air.

Qu Huaian used the card in his wallet to pay the bill. He knew that the rich people lived a life of luxury, but when he saw the price of a meal, he still couldn’t help but be speechless.

When she walked out of the private restaurant, she saw that Xie tingxi didn’t look like an elite like he did during the day. He was sitting directly on a round stone stool, and his back was relaxed. He wasn’t as straight as before.

Thinking that he must be feeling unwell after drinking so much tonight, she saw the pharmacy not far away from her peripheral vision and walked over.

Xie tingxi waited for her for a long time, but she didn’t come out. He got up and was about to go back to look for her, but after taking two steps, he saw her running over from a distance, holding a plastic bag in her hand.

“Where have you been?” He asked with a frown. Why was she running around alone in the middle of the night?

Qu Huaian took out some hangover medicine and a bottle of water from his bag. you drank too much tonight. Let’s get some hangover.

Xie tingxi was slightly stunned, and his eyes fell on The Hangover medicine in her hand. you went to buy it? ”

Qu Huaian nodded.

As the cold wind blew, he felt a warm current surge up in his heart and spread to his limbs and bones. His spine also felt numb.

Qu Huaian handed The Hangover medicine to him and unscrewed the bottle of mineral water. After seeing that he had taken The Hangover medicine, he handed him the water.

Xie tingxi took the bottle and took a sip, but he didn’t return it to her.

“Are we going back?” Qu Huaian asked.

“Walk with me,” It was rare for them to come out, and it was just the two of them. He didn’t want to go back so early.

Qu Huai ‘an followed him quietly without saying a word.

There was a park nearby, and many people strolled here at night. There were many street vendors making a living on the roadside.

There were stalls selling food, hats and scarves, and even hydrogen balloons.

“Give me a moment.” Xie tingxi asked her to wait for him, and quickly walked to the vendor selling hydrogen balloons.

He chose a purple rabbit from the hydrogen balloons of various shapes and scanned the QR code to pay for it. He walked over and handed it to her. here you go.

Qu Huaian did not take it. He looked up at the balloon in the air. why did you give me this? ”

Xie tingxi didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he held her hand and tied the rope around her wrist. I guess you’ve never owned these since you were a child, so I suddenly wanted to buy them for you.

When she was a child, she saw other people had beautiful balloons and wanted them too. She went to Liu ru and asked her to buy one for herself.

Liu ru slapped her without saying a word and cursed, ” “You only know how to buy this and that every day. You’re a waste of money, you wretched girl!”

She covered her face and cried, but Liu ru turned around and bought a pair of shoes for her brother.

Since then, she never dared to ask for anything or express what she liked.

Because she was not worthy.

Xie tingxi saw that she didn’t speak, so he didn’t ask much. He said, ” “Let’s go,” he said.

Qu Huaian continued to follow him, but his eyes would occasionally look at the balloons floating in the air.

This seemed to be the first time she had her favorite toy.

A balloon that only belonged to her.

The two of them had not walked far when they met an Auntie carrying a basket of roses. Sir, please buy a rose for your girlfriend!

Xie tingxi frowned. she’s not my girlfriend.

The auntie’s expression changed slightly. Just as she was about to apologize, she heard him say in a serious tone, ” “She’s my wife.”

“So you’re a couple. All the more reason for me to buy a bouquet of flowers for Madam!” The helper took out the largest bunch of flowers in the basket.

Xie tingxi didn’t want this bouquet. Instead, he said, ” I only want one.

The helper was a little disappointed, but she still gave him a beautiful bouquet of roses enthusiastically. ten Yuan.

Xie tingxi scanned the QR code and handed the Rose to her. has anyone ever given you roses? ”

Qu Huaian did not reject the offer. He took the Rose and saw that there were still droplets of water on the petals, glistening under the streetlight.

“No, I didn’t,”

Hearing this answer, Xie tingxi was in a good mood. He asked again, “Do you like it?”

Qu Huaian only replied,”it’s alright.”

Ever since she was young, there was nothing that she liked, or perhaps she liked it but couldn’t have it. So, she suppressed her desires time and time again. As time passed, there was nothing she liked or disliked.

Someone passed by on a battery-powered bike, and he reached out to grab her wrist without letting go.

As they walked, they chatted casually. what did you study before? ”

“I didn’t go to college.”

Xie tingxi turned back to look at her and heard her say in a calm tone, ” “At that time, I had just entered the University of mo, and my brother had an accident.”

She had received the admission letter from mo University, but qu Huainan’s death had broken her family apart. It was her fate that Liu ru and qu Zhengguo didn’t beat her to death, let alone go to college.

Or perhaps her brother was protecting her from the heavens.

Xie tingxi’s heart trembled, and his grip on her wrist tightened. do you want to go back to school? ”

She was able to get into mo University, so her academic performance was self-evident. It was a pity that she did not complete her studies.

Qu Huaian shook his head. For others, not being able to go to university might be a pity, but for her, it didn’t feel much.

She was a person who didn’t have much desire.

“Why?”

“A missed opportunity is a missed opportunity.” Qu Huaian replied indifferently, “I no longer have the desire to learn.

In the past, it was her brother who encouraged her to study more. A girl should go to college and broaden her horizons. However, her brother was no longer around, and her life came to an abrupt end that year. She could not go back to what she had been doing.

Xie tingxi thought for a moment and asked, “do you have anything you want to do?”

It didn’t matter if she wanted to open a shop or what industry she wanted to work in. As long as she wanted to, he would be able to fulfill her wishes.

However-

“No, I didn’t,” Qu Huaian did not have anything that he wanted to do. I’m already very good at taking care of Mumu and being your Secretary.

He did not even force her to fulfill her duties as a wife now.

Xie tingxi had never met a person like her who had no desires and no worldly desires.

The more she acted like this, the more worried Xie tingxi became.

In the past, qu Huainan had been her spiritual pillar. Now that he was dead, her hatred for herself had supported her. But now, she had no goal or pursuit, just like a ghost without a sense of self that could disperse at any time.

Xie tingxi held her wrist tightly, and his heart was filled with unprecedented panic.

He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to keep her, afraid that she would leave him sooner or later.

Qu Huaian’s wrist was in pain from his grip. He raised his head and looked at him. what’s wrong? ”

Xie tingxi came back to his senses and released his hand when he saw that his wrist had turned red.

“It’s nothing,”

Qu Huaian did not know what he was unhappy about, and his gaze fell on the balloon again. The small colored lights twined around it, flashing like stars in the sky.

Perhaps one day, he would also become a star.

A gust of cold wind blew past, and the ends of her hair brushed past her thin waist. Xie tingxi suddenly called out to her, ” qu Huaian.

Qu Huaian came back to his senses and his eyes fell on his face again. His low and hoarse but sincere confession rang in his ears ...

“I love you.”

——

To put it simply, her native family had caused qu Huaian to have a repressive personality. She couldn’t sense whether she liked him or not, and the only person she cared about was qu Huinan. After qu Huainan’s death, she had nothing to worry about in this world. She liked Jiang rang because he was qu Huainan’s friend, but this liking couldn’t compare to the importance of qu Huainan to her. Torturing Xie tingxi was torturing his heart. He thought that qu Huai ‘an liked him first, but it turned out to be his own strategy. However, Huai’ an didn’t like him and said, ” see you tomorrow.
