1340: C1340 Fate

C1340 Fate

"If she had submitted to fate earlier, she would not be where she is today." Qiu Tong said.

"Yes!" Jin Jingze nodded again.

"There are some fates that can be resisted, but there are some fates that can't be helped." Qiu Tong said to herself.

Jin Jingze looked at Qiu Tong with his eyes wide open: "You also said that. I... My aunt used to say that. "

I couldn't help but stare at Qiu Tong with wide eyes.

Qiu Tong responded with a soft "oh" and looked at Jin Jingze. "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Jin Jingze said, "It seems to be true that you and my aunt are fated to meet."

Qiu Tong smiled.

Clouds sat quietly listening to our discussion with a thoughtful expression on their faces. They never spoke. It was as if she was also thinking about her own fate.

In his ignorance, he felt that fate was like an ice-cold sword, chasing after the blood. It does not hurt indifference, nor can indifference hurt it. Its two blades must pierce the heart of a hot-blooded man.

To fall was life, to save was also life. This was fate.

I looked at Jin Jingze, Qiu Tongyun, and Xiao Xue, thinking that their lives and lives have their own choices, and I also have my own destiny that I might have already decided on.

And thinking of the chairman and his aunt, what would her fate be in the end?

After the birthday party, the slightly tipsy Jin Jingze took his leave. He will be very busy tomorrow and won't be able to see us off personally.

We would like to express our understanding and sincere thanks for the hospitality extended to him.

Before he left, Jin Jingze hugged and kissed Snowy. Then, he put her down and said to Cloudy Heavens, "Cloudy Heavens, little Clouds, your alcohol tolerance is too high. Admit that I can't win against you."

Clouds giggled.

"The next time I go to China, I must have a good drink with you. I don't believe that I can't drink with you." Jin Jingze's body swayed as he said unwillingly.

Everyone started laughing. I said, "Jingze, it's normal for you to be unable to drink clouds. Not to mention you, even if it were me, I might not necessarily be able to drink clouds."

"Really?" Jin Jingze was looking at me and Cloud with his big eyes.

Clouds smiled at me and said, "Bro — don't call me a barrel of wine."

I chuckled.

"Brother?" Jin Jingze looked at me: "Hey — — Yun calls you brother, aren't you guys colleagues? How can she call you brother?"

I said seriously, "That's our nickname!"

"Nickname?" Jin Jingze chuckled, looked at the clouds, slyly rolled his eyes: "Hey, Little Clouds, Yi Ke and I are good buddies, why don't you give me a nickname too? Can you also call me brother? "

"Brother Jin!" The cloud made a sound, then laughed again.

"No, you want me to call you big brother?" Jin Jingze chuckled.

"Brother Jin!" Clouds called again.

"Sigh... there's a difference." Jin Jingze shook his head in dissatisfaction.

"Big brother — —" Snowy suddenly jumped up and down.

Jin Jingze immediately grinned.

Everyone was laughing out loud. Qiu Tong picked up Snowy and gently patted her butt. "Little girl, don't call me that. You have to call me Uncle Jin."

"Hee hee, uncle." Snowy changed her words.

"Heh heh." Jin Jingze smiled as he pinched Snowy's cheek, and then inadvertently glanced at Cloud and me before saying goodbye to us.

After sending Jin Jingze off, everyone went back to their respective rooms to rest.

Tomorrow, we will take this opportunity to leave Korea and return to Hsinghai.

Back in my room, I took a shower, sat on the sofa and smoked a cigarette. I watched TV for a while.

Then I thought of Hai Zhu, who was in Taiwan with her tour group, my parents and her parents. Tomorrow, they would end their journey and return to the mainland. I don't know if they had a good time on this trip, or if they were happy. With four elders together, it was inevitable that we would discuss my marriage with Hai Zhu, that was certain.

The thought of two more months before Hai Zhu and I enter the marriage hall, I do not know for a moment how it feels, as if my fate will end in my marriage with Hai Zhu.

I knew that my marriage to Hai Zhu was irrevocable, and so was Qiu Tong's marriage to Lee Shun. Qiu Tong and I were engaged to be married, and we would both be married in the near future.

Between Hai Zhu and me, I was Hai Zhu's most beloved person, this is very clear to me. Although I never asked myself whether Hai Zhu was my most beloved woman, but I still carried with me a feeling that was difficult to part with. Whether it was kinship or love, whether it was kinship or love, I didn't think too much about it.

At the same time, I also knew that I had an unavoidable responsibility towards Hai Zhu. This responsibility seemed to come from the drive of my morals and conscience, as well as from Qiu Tong's catalysis and stimulation.

Between Qiu Tong and Lee Shun, I clearly know that Qiu Tong doesn't love Lee Shun. Although she is very concerned about Lee Shun's life and death for reasons that I don't understand, and even feels Lee Shun's calamity in her dreams, but I can still confirm that Qiu Tong doesn't have that kind of feeling towards Lee Shun from the bottom of her heart. But even if she didn't have any feelings, she had to accept the arrangement of fate without any complaints, and marry herself to Lee Shun for the sake of repaying the debt of gratitude.

As for Lee Shun, I know that he didn't really love Qiu Tong either. Before Zhang Mei appeared, I felt that he never had any love for any woman, and his care and concern for Qiu Tong seemed to be due to Xiao Xue. On the other hand, it was to protect the honor of the family, as well as his own face.

It seems that Lee Shun has never really let Zhang Mei go, even though he once hated her to the bones, but that hatred seemed to be due to some kind of love, otherwise, he would not personally come here to Hsinghai to take her away. Although the reason to take Zhang Mei away from me, Lee Shun explained it very grandly to me, but I suspect that he has some sort of unspeakable reason.

And Lee Shun taking Zhang Mei away, seems to overturn my judgment that Lee Shun never had any feelings for women.

Moreover, at the same time, due to Zhang Mei's appearance, I also felt that Lee Shun's heart was getting further and further away from Qiu Tong. When he and Qiu Tong entered the marriage, Qiu Tong could only be a decoration, a tool to protect Lee Shun's family's face. Qiu Tong seemed to be willing to make such a tool.

I was powerless to save Qiu Tong. There was no one in this world who could save Qiu Tong. The only person who could save her was her, and she was unwilling to do so.

Character determines fate. Was Qiu Tong's fate really going to be ruined by a character like hers?

As I thought about it, I felt a great depression in my heart, a depression that almost suffocated me.

I changed my clothes and wanted to get some fresh air.

He left his room and walked to the hotel's open platform. Looking around, he could see the bright city lights of Seoul.

At the same time, he saw a lonely figure standing on the other side of the platform.

This is Qiu Tong's back, I am familiar with that back.

I walked slowly to her side.

Qiu Tong noticed and turned to look at me. "No rest?"

"Yes." "Yes," I said.

"Why didn't you rest?" Qiu Tong said.

"Why haven't you rested?" I asked.

Qiu Tong smiled. "After drinking some wine, my brain is a little excited. I can't fall asleep, so I came out to take a breath of fresh air!"

I said, "Me too!"

Qiu Tong looked at me and then went silent.

I was silent, too.

Together we watched the night in Seoul in silence.

"Why did you lie to me that day?" After a while, Qiu Tong spoke up.

I know she was referring to the assassination of Lee Shun on the eve of National Day.

"Because I don't want you to worry!" "No," I said.

"When I called you, you knew something was up over there, didn't you?" Qiu Tong said.

"Yes!"

"If Jin Jingze mentioned it by accident, you would never tell me, would you?" Qiu Tong said again.

"Yes," I said without hesitation.

"But I still know!" Qiu Tong said.

"There's no other way!" "No," I said.

"And I know you lied to me again!" Qiu Tong said again.

"There's no other way!" "No," I said.

"Are you confident?" Qiu Tong turned to look at me.

"He's not very confident, but he's not very afraid either!" My voice softened a little.

Qiu Tong looked at me silently for a while before sighing softly.

"I've been feeling weird these past few days." Qiu Tong said.

"What's strange?" "No," I said.

"I wonder why I had such a nightmare at that time!" Qiu Tong said.

"I'm surprised too. I was very surprised when I got your call that night. " "No," I said.

Qiu Tong turned her head to the autumn sky in the Republic of Korea and said, "Perhaps, this is all the arrangement of fate. Everything in the underworld is actually the arrangement of fate. Everything is destined."

I didn't know how to explain it. My mind was in a mess. Could it be that this was fated, that Qiu Tong and Lee Shun were destined to be together?

I felt, perhaps because of this dream, that Qiu Tong seemed to believe that her previous insistence was irrevocable. She believed even more in the Chief Sovereign of Fate.

Thinking like this, his mood became increasingly gloomy and heavy.

"Do you believe that life has a cycle?" Qiu Tong suddenly asked me.

"I don't know." "No," I said.

"The Buddha said that there is reincarnation in human life."

I stared blankly at Qiu Tong.

"I don't understand Buddhism, nor do I know if life has reincarnation, but if life has reincarnation, do I have the chance to meet my parents who I don't know where? If I can see my parents again like this, even if it's just for a day, or even just for a glance, then I really hope that time can flow backwards! " Qiu Tong's voice sounded a little sad and lost.2

My heart felt sour. "If it can really be like this, I also hope that time can flow backwards."

If that was really possible, if Qiu Tong could really meet her parents, then their parents would be very pleased to see that their daughter had grown up. However, this could only be a beautiful dream.

I couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Qiu Tong muttered to herself, "If it can really be like this, then I pray that I can meet my parents, just like how a friend's cousin meets her grandmother, so that I can have the opportunity to be by her side, talking to them, or taking a walk. Even if it would be better for me to catch a glimpse of them from afar."

To an ordinary person, such a simple matter was an extravagant request in Qiu Tong's heart. My tears suddenly gushed out. I turned around and faced the night sky, not allowing Qiu Tong to see my tears.

Life was so simple, yet so difficult.

For some reason, in my misty tears, the shadow of the chairman and aunt flashed before my eyes.

The next day we set out for home.

While waiting in line for security check in the terminal hall of Renchuan Airport, Snowy went to the bathroom and Clouds took her there. Qiu Tong and I stood there chatting.

While we were talking, Qiu Tong's gaze suddenly shifted behind me, an expression of surprise on her face.

Bewildered, I turned my head.
