delayed love

"..."

It was only then that Cheng Si realized that he had been scammed.

Without even thinking about it, he immediately pulled Bai Xu over: "He is an accomplice."

Bai Xu endured it and didn't fight him.

Qin Yu gazed at the two of them for a few seconds, "What do you want to do?"

"Ah, this is just to create a chance for you to be alone." Cheng Si knew that Qin Yu was not really angry, so he smiled obsequiously, "The two of us are afraid that something will go wrong, so we come over to have a look. "

"It's really nothing else."

"How's it going, isn't it going well, third brother?" Cheng Si smiled inscrutablely, trying to claim credit: "The atmosphere of this restaurant and this movie I chose is not bad."

"I've seen it all. Lin Xi has been taking the initiative to chat with you. Third brother, you have to seize the opportunity too."

After finishing Lin Xi's ideological work, Cheng Si came to Qin Yu again.

Lin Xi took a step with great difficulty, Qin Yu must not lose the chain.

"It's still early anyway, so don't just talk about sending her home. It's so harmonious after all. It's good to stay for a while without doing anything."

When Lin Xi came out of the bathroom, she saw Qin Yu immediately.

She trotted forward, "Third brother, I'm fine. Let's go."

"Yes." Qin Yu replied, and returned the rose in her hand to her.

It was not convenient for Lin Xi to hold it, so she simply pinned it to the satchel.

After coming out of the movie theater, Lin Xi realized that the night was dark, and the bright moon was covered by dark clouds, revealing a blurred outline.

"It looks like it's going to rain," she said.

Looks like it's only here today.

In this weather, Qin Yu should send her back.

Who knows, Qin Yu looked up at the sky casually, and said softly: "Can't get down, go sit on the opposite side?"

The unassuming bistro opposite is still open.

Lin Xi took a look, not quite sure that Qin Yu was going to this kind of place.

She has no complaints about this kind of place, but Qin Yu doesn't like the lively atmosphere very much.

For him, it would be noisy.

For her, too.

As if seeing her doubts, Qin Yu didn't stop, "Don't go inside to join in the fun, sit outside."

Only then did Lin Xi see that the entrance of the tavern was facing the lake, and there were several empty tables and chairs.

After being seated, Qin Yu ordered two glasses of wine, both of which were not high in alcohol and were within the acceptable range of the two of them.

The door of the tavern was open. From Lin Xi's position, he could still hear the sound of music, which was not as noisy as imagined.

The guests outside also sat at a few tables, but they all kept a polite distance and could not hear any conversation.Although the sky was gloomy, but fortunately there was no wind, everything was just right.

Lin Xi stared at the candles on the table in a daze. After the wine was served, she heard Qin Yu find a topic and asked her, "How do you feel about the movie just now?"

"Okay?" Seriously, she didn't think so at all.

However, she knew the general plot in her mind.

Pretty good guess.

"Just as expected, nothing unexpected."

Lin Xi sneaked a glance at him, "What does the third brother think? The plot seems a little dull."

Qin Yu thought for a while, then shook his head, "I didn't pay much attention."

"You didn't see it?"

Qin Yu pushed the candle aside, and replied softly, "I watched a little from the front, but I will focus on you later."

"..." Lin Xi bit the straw and did not dare to move, the picture seemed to be frozen.

She tried to make excuses for him, "Did I talk too much at that time? Did you disturb the third brother?"

Thinking about it now, she really talked a lot of nonsense back then.

"I don't know if it's an occupational disease." She scratched her ears in embarrassment, lowered her eyes and explained in a low voice, "I couldn't stop once I opened my mouth, and I really want to introduce you."

"Don't disturb." Qin Yu leaned back on the chair, looked at her with a smile on her face, "On the contrary, I like to listen."

"There are indeed some words that are too technical, but I can still understand the general meaning."

"Lin Xi, have I told you that I like your current state very much?"

Lin Xi: "..."

"Or not just now."

Qin Yu looked at her, her voice was slightly hoarse, like an old record. "I'm really happy to see you shining in the industry you like and are good at, confident and cheerful."

"I haven't mentioned it to you before. You participated in a national competition in your junior year, and you led the team to win No.1. At that time, I was in the audience."

"I see you laughing, crying, hugging your teammates."

"There was even a moment when I was so impulsive that I walked into your backstage lounge. It's just that I heard you and your teammates and teachers celebrating at the time, so I didn't dare to disturb you, lest you might feel like a disappointment."

After a pause, he smiled, and continued: "I still remember the appearance of you standing on the stage at that time."

"I hope you can return to China earlier, but compared to that, I want to see you hold your head up and go up firmly, to climb the peak that belongs to you."

"In the past few years, Cheng Si often asked me once in a while. He asked me why I always went to see you secretly, why I didn't take the initiative anymore. Especially when you graduated, he asked me why I didn't just call you Bring it back straight away."

"Lin Xi, it's not that I don't like you enough."

On the contrary, he invested so much energy in her that he was careful all the way.

"I hope you can go further and go to bigger places."

"Even if you're not by my side."

"I also know that you don't really need anyone."

"I've always known. As for why I have been following you secretly for so many years..."

"I seem to have found the right answer recently."

"It was never you who needed me."

"It's me who can't live without you."

"I don't know what Cheng Sidu said to you, so that you are willing to set aside some time for me today. I am very happy tonight, but I still want to tell you that you don't need to be influenced by other people's opinions and be firm in your thoughts Just fine."

"I know what you're thinking, even if you don't say it, I know it."

"Don't worry, I'm always here."

"Remember, this is your life, and you are the protagonist. Other than you, other people can be unimportant, including me."

-

Lin Xi clenched the wine glass silently.

She thought Qin Yu didn't know anything...

But that's just what she thought.

She turned her head, trying to hide her red eyes from him.

"I……"

"I do want to climb a little higher."

"It seems that I have been living by your light since I was a child. I also want to rely on myself to go to a higher place."

"I haven't thought about the top of the mountain yet, but at least it can't be halfway up the mountain."

"If it goes well, I will give you an answer within the time limit you gave me."

"If it doesn't go well..."

On the opposite side, the man suddenly spoke and interrupted her: "Lin Xi, there is no if."
