C1518 Encouraging
0"You're very good at managing your operations. You can also do good work as a judge and as a political worker!" I encouraged her.
Qiu Tong smiled. "Are you that confident in me?"
"Of course!" I also laughed and raised my glass. "Come, Qiu Tong. To you, to the new journey that you are about to embark on, cheers —"
Qiu Tong looked at me, pursed her lips, and raised her glass.
When it was done, Qiu Tong looked at me in silence, and I looked back at her.
Their gazes met, then turned away.
"I guess Hai Zhu and her parents are going to spend the new year in Australia." Qiu Tong said.
"Yes." "No," I said.
"I hope everything will be better after the Spring Festival." Qiu Tong said.
"Yes."
"It will, it will, I believe it will." Qiu Tong seemed to console herself as she raised her glass and looked at me. "For your beautiful tomorrow, cheers for everyone's beautiful tomorrow!"
I raised my glass and did it.
After a moment of silence, Qiu Tong suddenly said, "I suddenly miss my friends very much."
I looked at Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong continued to mutter softly, "I miss Piggy, I miss Cloud, I miss Xia Yu, I miss Hai Zhu, I miss Kong Kun. They are all far away, they are my sisters, they are all gone, and I am left alone here. "
Qiu Tong's voice sounded desolate and sad.
I said, "Even if the whole world leaves you, there's still me, and there's still me by your side. I'll never leave you. "
Qiu Tong's eyelids jumped. She looked at me and forced out a smile. "I don't need you to be by my side forever. You don't need to be by my side forever. I have my home. You have a place to go."
My nose suddenly felt sore and I rubbed it.
"Actually, if I had the chance to occasionally sit down and chat with you, I would already be satisfied." Qiu Tong continued softly.
Listening to Qiu Tong's words, my heart rose and fell.
We were silent for a moment.
After a while, Qiu Tong said, "The case of Bai Laosan's death seems to have been solved. There was news in the newspapers and the murderer went to the police to confess."
"Alright, I understand." I looked back at Qiu Tong.
"In that case, that Bai Laosan wasn't killed by Lee Shun. In that case, the wanted poster of Lee Shun should be revoked." Qiu Tong said.
I nodded. "Yes, I suppose so. Perhaps, he will be able to appear openly in the Hsinghai very soon. "
Qiu Tong nodded and said in a gratified tone, "This way, it will somewhat make his parents feel more or less relaxed and comforted."
I looked at her.
Qiu Tong looked at me, lowered her eyes, and fell silent.
It was as if she knew what I was thinking, and she was thinking what I was thinking, that once Lee Shun's identity was free, he would probably face the problem of officially registering his marriage with Qiu Tong. Lee, Mrs Lee in particular, would have urged it.
After a long while, Qiu Tong said softly, "I know that the time has come. This day will eventually come."
She sighed.
This sigh almost broke my heart, but other than sadness and loss, there was only helplessness and sadness.
I know, I don't have any power to stop this matter. I am already Hai Zhu's legal spouse. As a married man, what qualifications do I have to stop Lee Shun and Qiu Tong from getting married?
Qiu Tong smiled again and looked at me, saying, "Actually, I'm really happy for him. It's definitely something to be happy about. He might finally be able to live under the sunlight. In this world, who wouldn't want to live under the sunlight? Who would want to stay in a dark corner forever? "
I couldn't help but laugh as well. "Yes, you're right."
"However, when will he be able to come ashore? When will he be able to be an upright and upright man? When will he be able to make his parents truly feel at ease?" "Hai." Qiu Tong sighed, her eyes filled with worry, anxiety, and worry.
It seemed that although Qiu Tong did not love Lee Shun, she had an uncontrollable care and concern for him from the bottom of her heart.
I felt it, I had felt it.
Not only did Qiu Tong treat Lee Shun like this, even Lee Shun treated Qiu Tong the same way. He didn't seem to love Qiu Tong, it seemed that the only woman he truly loved was Zhang Mei, but he also showed an involuntary concern for Qiu Tong. It seemed that this concern was not only because Qiu Tong was Xiao Xue's mother, it was also not only because he needed Qiu Tong to be his wife to cover for him.
It's kind of incomprehensible to me that there's no love, and yet there's something like that.
Although I can't understand it, I won't say it out loud. I will just keep it in my heart.
I didn't say anything as I stared blankly at Qiu Tong.
At this moment, my heart couldn't help but tighten, and I thought of Wu De, who was still lingering in Manila.
After dinner, I walked Qiu Tong home. On the way, Qiu Tong said to me, "Oh yeah, after you left on New Year's Day, I took Snowy to my grandparents' house to play. While Grandpa was watching TV with Snowy in his arms while Grandma was busy eating and peeling walnuts for Snowy, I called Aunt Jin Jingxiu from the side to congratulate her and Jin Jingze on New Year's Day. We chatted happily on the phone for a long time. "
I was stunned and stopped in my tracks. I looked at Qiu Tong and stammered, "You called Jin Jingxiu in front of Xiaoxue's grandparents?"
"Yeah, I called Jin Jingxiu. What's the matter with you? " Qiu Tong felt that I had lost my composure and looked at me strangely.
I quickly covered my mouth and said, "Oh, it's nothing. Actually, in the early hours of New Year's Day, Jin Jingze called me to say hello to the New Year, and to represent his aunt to say hello to our happy New Year. "
"Oh, hur hur." Qiu Tong laughed. "It's very strange," she continued.
"What's strange?" "No," I said.
"When I called Aunt Jin Jingxiu, Grandpa Snowy's expression suddenly became a bit odd, as if he was very uneasy. As soon as Grandfather Snowy felt that something was off, Grandma Snowy would look at him, as if she was a bit confused by his abnormal expression. "
Qiu Tong and Mrs Lee naturally didn't know about it, so they smiled and said, "Actually, Grandma Xiaoxue's expression isn't because of Grandpa Xiaoxue, it's because of you. Grandpa Xiaoxue is also because of you, you know, calling foreign friends to greet the new year, of course they would be surprised, they didn't expect you to have friends abroad."
"Maybe this is reasonable, but I still feel that it's a bit strange." Qiu Tong said, "After the call, Grandpa Snowy carried Snowy upstairs. Grandma Snowy just sat there and asked who the caller was and I told her."
"What did you say?" "No," I said.
"I said she's the aunt of a friend of mine, Korean." Qiu Tong said, "Grandma Xiaoxue seems to be quite interested. Why do you ask? I said she's the big boss of a cultural media company. He's her nephew who came to Hsinghai to attend the Sino-Korean cultural media exchange and later met her. Grandma Xiaoxue nodded and stopped asking. "
"Oh. After that, did Grandpa Little Snow ask you? " "No," I said.
"No, I haven't." Qiu Tong said.
I heaved a sigh of relief and said, "When Jin Jingze called me the other day, we chatted for a while. Jin Jingze told me about her aunt's circumstances. Jin Jingxiu and Jin Jingze both had a bitter life.
I then told Qiu Tong what Jin Jingze told me. When Qiu Tong finished listening, she seemed to be shocked. After being silent for a long time, she sighed with emotion, "So Jin Jingze and her aunt actually had such a tragic life. So Aunt Jin Jingxiu actually had such a bitter experience. "So, what happened to Jin Jingxiu in the first place that caused all this?
Jin Jingze was just over a year old at the time, so he didn't know either, and he still doesn't know. That is to say, for so many years, Jin Jingxiu never told him about it, she only said that it must be because something big happened to her that caused the current situation to happen, and it must be related to the life of the entire family. If Jin Jingxiu didn't say it, Jin Jingze didn't pursue the matter, perhaps Jin Jingxiu found the past unbearable, and Jin Jingze also doesn't want to evoke Jin Jingxiu's painful memories." "No," I said.
"Yes." Qiu Tong nodded and said, "From the looks of it, Aunt Jin Jingxiu seems to be a very mysterious person. It seems that she has some sort of legend on her body."
"Yes, she is someone with a story. She feels like a legend." I said, "Actually, you are also someone with a story. Your experience is also quite legendary."
"Me?" Qiu Tong smiled. "My story is very simple. My experience is also very simple. I don't have many stories, and I'm not some legendary figure."
I smiled. "In my eyes, you are!"
Qiu Tong said, "In my eyes, you are still a person with a lot of stories. Your experiences, if you recall them in the future, must also be very legendary. "
I said, "Then we all are!"
Qiu Tong laughed, "Alright, stop feeling good about yourself. When are you going back to the base? "
I said, "Not for the time being. The first day, the living conditions were too harsh, the weather was too cold, and it was inconvenient to take a bath. The second day, there was nothing to do, so I just stayed around; the third day, the head of the base did not welcome me to stay at the base every day. I would give you a few days' notice, and although he could not chase you away, he would still give you face." In this way, I won't be going back for the time being. "
Qiu Tong said, "Why doesn't the headquarter's director want you to live there?"
I said, "He's not just targeting me, he's not just not welcoming me to stay there. He doesn't welcome any deputy director who works there to stay at the base, he's happy to see everyone in the city enjoying themselves and where everyone is, he'll find it annoying and will hinder him from doing something."
Qiu Tong nodded. "I understand." I know what you mean. "
I said, "This director is actually quite a fun person. He is a cute person. Since he is worried about something, then I will help him. Everyone will help him."
Qiu Tong smiled helplessly. Since that's the case, then you might as well rest well in the city. Actually, since that's the case, you might as well stay at home and spend more time with your parents. "
I said, "No, my parents don't know that I have been assigned to work, and I want to stay at home for an extra day. My parents are urging me to come back, for fear of delaying my work. "Hai."
As I said this, I couldn't help but think of my mother lying in bed recuperating. I thought of Dong Xue serving my mother as my daughter-in-law as my friend.
Thinking like this, his heart felt a bit uncomfortable, an indescribable feeling.
Qiu Tong nodded and said, "Yeah, it's good to not let your parents know, so they won't worry about you. "Hai Zhu doesn't know either, right?"
I said, "I don't know if she knows. Maybe, she doesn't know. "
The reason why I didn't know anything about Hai Zhu's current situation was mainly because I didn't know if Hai Zhu and Cao Lee were related at all. Hai Zhu didn't contact me, but that didn't mean she didn't contact Cao Lee, it didn't mean she knew about my current situation through Cao Lee. Even though Hai Zhu doesn't interact with me now, it doesn't mean that she doesn't care about me.
