Chapter 182 Meet again.
Chapter 182 Meet again.
Shi Ce also attended the dinner tonight. Seeing his two nephews finally get married, he was sincerely happy for them.
In this quiet little village, there also lives the person he longs for.
(Two neighbors, three girls, all got taken away by your family! (┯_┯))
Today he thought that Shen Qing, as their teacher, should come with them.
He secretly watched at Shen Qing's door for a long time, but never saw her.
The two have not seen each other since their last unpleasant meeting.
Shi Ce had long been eager to find her, but unfortunately he had never found a suitable opportunity.
He didn't want Shen Qing to dislike him even more because of his sudden meeting again.
I couldn't tell anyone about the pain in my heart, and before I knew it, I had drunk one glass of wine after another.
Shi Li and the others were so absorbed in their conversation that they didn't notice Shi Ce's situation at all.
Shi Ce felt a little dizzy and was afraid of making a fool of himself in front of everyone, so he said something to Shi Bo and prepared to go outside to get some fresh air.
Shi Bai winked at the person behind him, and that person followed Shi Ce out.
In fact, Shi Bai was not supervising Shi Ce, but he was afraid that the weather was cold and he had drunk so much, which might lead to unexpected situations.
It was still relatively cold in Suzhou in January, and the cold wind blowing in his face made Shi Ce more sober.
He left Jiang Wan's house and walked aimlessly along the dim street lights.
When I came to my senses, I found that I had arrived at the door of Shen Qing's house.
Maybe deep down, he subconsciously still wanted to meet Xiao Qing!
Or rather, even if we can't meet, it's good to be closer to her.
It is now half past eight in the evening and Shen Qing has not gone to bed yet.
In her sunroom on the second floor, there are several red plum trees in bloom. The plum blossoms are so noble that you can even smell their fragrance.
She sat in the conservatory on the second floor, which had a small oven.
Some longans and oranges were roasted on it, sizzling over a low fire, giving off a rich fruity aroma.
In the teapot next to it, there was a pot of black tea with bright color and rich taste. A sip of hot tea could dispel the coldness of the entire winter.
Shen Qing held a small pair of tongs in her hand and kept turning the fruits on the oven so that they would be heated evenly.
In the quiet environment, the only sound you can hear is the sizzling of fruits.
Shen Qing had already fallen into deep thought.
Ever since Shi Ce came last, her heart could no longer return to its former calm state.
Shi Ce’s weathered face kept appearing in my mind. It turned out that everything had changed!
Shi Ce is no longer the Brother Shi Ce of the past!
Their identities, status, and lifestyles have changed a lot, and it seems that she should not cling to the memories of the past anymore.
But how easy is it to take a step forward?
I met so many amazing people when I was young that everyone I met later seemed mediocre.
Moreover, I am no longer the innocent student I used to be, and my mentality has undergone tremendous changes.
Maybe she is only suitable for living a simple life alone in her life!
But the image of Shi Ce fainting kept appearing in my mind.
I often recall the cries of patients' families in the hospital corridor in my dreams.
Perhaps in the face of birth, aging, sickness and death, nothing else matters.
Because no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident!
He has never come here since Shi Ce left. Maybe after being rejected by me, he no longer wants to come here!
Maybe he’s made peace with his past too!
Suddenly, a burnt orange peel hit Shen Qing's hand.
The pain brought her back to her senses, and by the time Shen Qing reacted, her arms were already burned red.
She quickly got up and ran to flush the water to prevent blisters. The cold water droplets hitting her body woke her up immediately.
After showering for a while, I realized that it didn’t hurt that much anymore, so I prepared to go downstairs to find some burn ointment to apply.
When I was going downstairs, looking down from the upstairs, I suddenly saw another lonely figure.
Under the dim light, Shi Ce sat alone on a rest bench on the road, staring at Shen Qing's house.
Shen Qing felt that Shi Ce wouldn’t be that stupid!
It’s winter and it’s so late, and you’re sitting there alone feeling the cold wind!
You should know that the weather in Suzhou is different from that in Beijing. It is damp and cold.
Beijing is dry and cold, but there is heating, so it is cold outside but warm inside.
In the winter in Suzhou, it is equally cold inside and outside the house, and one has to rely solely on one's positive energy to keep warm.
Shen Qing didn't quite believe that Shi Ce would show up at his doorstep at this time.
But then she remembered that the Shi family did come to Jiang Wan's house for dinner today, so maybe Shi Ce was really there.
She still didn't want to see him, so she pretended not to see him and went downstairs.
Shen Qing sat in her boudoir, washed up, and prepared to go to bed.
But when I got to bed, I still couldn't sleep, and Shi Ce's lonely figure kept appearing in my mind.
I wanted to ignore him, but I couldn't help but think of the last time he fainted, and I couldn't bear to ignore him.
Shi’s family is really something. Knowing that he is in poor health, could they please not let him run around alone all the time?
The bodyguard following behind Shi Ce just wanted to shout that it was unfair! He tried to persuade him, but the Second Master refused to leave!
I have been sitting here quietly for almost an hour.
He also followed the cold wind for an hour (┯_┯)!!!
Finally! Shen Qing couldn't resist the worry in her heart, so she got up and decided to go take a look.
If he leaves, then everything will be fine. If he doesn't leave, then I will let him go back as soon as possible.
Don't let anything go wrong with me again. If I am held responsible for it, I won't be able to explain myself.
Shen Qing simply put on a long pajamas. The fluffy white collar set off Shen Qing's fair and flawless face.
Anyone who sees her will think that she is like the older sister of the two Jiang sisters, but overall, she looks more mature and charming than them.
From the balcony on the second floor, Shen Qing saw Shi Ce still sitting on the lounge chair.
I'm so angry. This idiot is just sitting there motionless in such a cold day.
He ran downstairs angrily and opened the door.
Shi Ce, who was sitting in a chair in deep thought, looked at Shen Qing who suddenly walked out.
He stood up in surprise. He thought he would not see Xiaoqing today.
Who knew that she was still awake so late? She must be thinking about each other just like me!
Shen Qing walked up to Shi Li angrily and said, "Are you stupid? Why are you sitting here in such a cold weather?"
"What's wrong with the Shi family? They know you're not in good health, but why do they always let you go out alone?"
"If the situation like last time happens again, you will be dead or not!"
Shi Ce heard that although Shen Qing was talking to him in an angry tone, she was actually worried about him.
Isn't this a sign that the two have taken a step further?
So Shi Ce said to Shen Qing with some excitement: "Xiao Qing, are you concerned about me?"
