belated antidote

Chapter 47 Xue Jian (End Chapter)

===========

Three years later, London Heathrow Airport.

The graduation ceremony for autumn admission is usually arranged in December. Zhong Huaiyuan had successfully completed the two-year MscNursing (Children) second master's degree in September. Since then, he has been staying in a local institution in London as an intern. Return to China and return to Renji after the Spring Festival next year.

The time difference between Zero Time Zone and East Eighth District doesn't seem to have any additional impact on him and Qi Dongqing. They make regular video calls every day. Usually, Zhong Huaiyuan, who is covered in bathroom steam, kisses Qi Dongqing's sleepy eyes through the screen.

Qi Dongqing arranged the affairs of the branch library, took a big vacation for himself, flew over to attend his graduation ceremony, and then took a tour of Europe by the way, like a warm-up for the honeymoon period.

Zhong Huaiyuan looked up at the display screen, the flight that the little doctor took had arrived for nearly half an hour, and he would be able to leave the customs in a short time.Standing at the exit of the terminal building, he rolled up his sleeves and adjusted the red bracelet that was held down by the dial. He couldn't help but suddenly remembered the day he left the country.

Behind Dongqing who came to see him off, there was an unexpected person—— Dongqing's grandfather.Old Doctor Qi possessed a calmness after the storm had settled, and his kindness and kindness did not affect his self-prestige without anger. Although Zhong Huaiyuan looked calm at the time, he was indeed somewhat timid in his heart.

After all, everyone knows that the other party said that he came to see him off on behalf of the Qi family, but in fact he came to show off his "grandson-in-law" who has not been officially recognized, and reminded himself not to give up and forget his precious grandson when he left the country .

Qi Dongqing stood behind her grandfather, secretly folded her hands together and pressed her chin, made a helpless expression to him, and silently told him "it happened suddenly, please bear with me".

"I've heard more or less about your family." Old Doctor Qi put his hands behind his back, "We don't care about your family background and financial ability, we just hope that you treat Dongqing sincerely."

Zhong Huaiyuan is not good at drawing cakes, so he can only swear clumsily: "Please rest assured, I will use my actions to prove that this decision is based on the future of Dongqing and me."

Qi Dongqing has never relied on the favor of the elders in his family to play petty temper with him, and it is even more impossible for him to shamelessly rely on the foundation of He Chuntang's ancestors. He must rely on his own efforts to make Dongqing have no worries.

"Good boy, thank you." Old Doctor Qi took out a red string from his bosom, with a small golden unicorn strung on it, implying blessings and blessings, "Among so many juniors, I am most worried about him." , thank you for letting us, Holly, find ourselves."

The heavy meeting ceremony is equivalent to a disguised recognition, Zhong Huaiyuan did not refuse, and said solemnly: "It is Dongqing who has worked hard on her own, and I have actually done nothing, so I can't bear this gratitude."

"You can't say that." Old Doctor Qi shook his head, and comforted him in a persuasive way: "When you work hard to live, you have already set an example for him invisibly."

Unintentionally inserting willows and willows into shades, talking about the unanswered fate and redemption between him and Qi Dongqing.

"I haven't seen me for so long, and I'm still in a daze, are you thinking of other men!"

A bright orange figure plunged into his arms, with a warm body, and instantly grabbed Zhong Huaiyuan's attention.

The long-distance flight left complex and intricate marks on Qi Dongqing's body. Zhong Huaiyuan buried his head into the wide neckline of the opponent's sweater, and finally smelled the medicinal fragrance at the junction of the shoulder and neck that made him feel at ease.

"I'm thinking of you, if I have to talk about other people...and your grandfather." He hugged him tighter.

Qi Dongqing suddenly remembered something, stretched out his hand to pinch Zhong Huaiyuan's wrist, squeezed it several times through the thick winter clothing fabric, and finally found the comfortable feel, and snorted in satisfaction: "Well, I still wear it honestly, this time I'll let you go."

The soft and waxy mohair sweater shrank to his arms with his movements, and there was nothing on his slender wrists. Zhong Huaiyuan's eyes were slightly cold, and he pursed his lips with some taste: "Where's yours?"

When old doctor Qi gave the red bracelet back then, he clearly heard the other party say "this is a pair".

Qi Dongqing tilted his right leg and pulled up the fabric of his jeans slightly: "Here it is." The majestic Zhenghong was tightly stuck under the ankle bone, glaring like a red plum covered with thin snow on the branches, and he didn't know how to live or die. Shaking his ankles, he stirred up the already warm air by a few degrees.

Qi Dongqing's eyes were clear and bright, and he didn't know that Zhong Huaiyuan's eyes were full of spring, and he was thinking about whether he should hang his legs around his waist or step on his shoulders when he went back tonight.

The first snow in London this year came not too late, and the Christmas month has ushered in the cold and white romance.The armor of the knight statues on the square was shrunk by the white snow, and the fountain left a few still photos in a frozen manner.

After the graduation ceremony at the beginning of the month, Qi Dongqing and Zhong Huaiyuan went to the European continent and enjoyed the mild and pleasant winter near the Mediterranean Sea. When they returned to England, they encountered the invasion of the Arctic cold current, and their bodies felt uncomfortable between the heat and cold.

Under Zhong Huaiyuan's supervision, Qi Dongqing had to give up the stylish gray woolen coat, and put on the other party's long down jacket with no sense of style and beauty, and was forced to wrap a three-in-one scarf. The whole person looked fluffy , much like the bachelor bear that Zhong Huaiyuan held in his hand when he graduated.

Designer Zhong Huaiyuan was very satisfied with his work. He stuffed Dongqing's slightly cold hands into his pocket and walked with him on Oxford Street after the snow.

"Let's play a game." Zhong Huaiyuan stretched out his fingertips to flick off the snow seeds that fell on the other's eyelashes at an unknown time, "Let's split up and choose a Christmas gift for each other, and see who chooses the most economical and distracting one."

Oxford Street is a very famous shopping paradise in London. Not to mention the big brands here, but the extremely "international" super-level prices in London make it difficult to be distracted and affordable.Qi Dongqing glanced at the Christmas tree in the window in some confusion, thinking that it would be more practical to steal a colored lantern.

"Okay, I won't lose." The overly leisurely eyes of the other party inspired his fighting spirit, and he readily agreed to this exchange of gifts between lovers.

"In an hour, we will meet at the fountain opposite this intersection." Zhong Huaiyuan smiled triumphantly, "I am looking forward to your gift."

After the agreement, the two split up. Although they boasted a lot, when Qi Dongqing stopped in front of his favorite shop, he would always think of the extraordinary added value of the brand, so he could only leave angrily.

The one-hour time limit passed quickly, and he finally chose a bottle of perfume that smelled similar to the laundry detergent at home, and stepped on it to the agreed place.

There are many people gathered in the park for some reason, and the moonlight behind the clouds is a bit thin, unable to illuminate the vision without street lights at all.Qi Dongqing walked around the fountain in the dark, but never found Zhong Huaiyuan, and was bumped several times by tourists passing by, almost falling to the ground.

So he stood quietly behind the fountain and waited.The snow that had not stopped for a long time returned again, falling on the cheeks and being melted by the body temperature.

During the two years when Zhong Huaiyuan came to study, the thing he was best at was waiting, but being good at it did not mean that he liked it.Transoceanic and jet lag make every video call extremely difficult and precious. He often sleeps with his mobile phone in his hand, so that he can answer the call from the other party as soon as possible.

Qi Dongqing has always been able to clearly feel the continuous dull pain in his chest. The annoying symptoms of lovesickness always attack him every night, and it will suddenly intensify after the phone is disconnected.

He has emotions and resentment, he is just an ordinary person, and he is also afraid of the unknown brought by distance.The long-suppressed temper suddenly surged up on the streets of a foreign country, Qi Dongqing took a breath with some difficulty, trying to press back the tears from the end of his eyes.

He didn't choose to raise his chin, but lowered his head, and two spots of water suddenly appeared on the snow in front of him.The leather shoes stepped on the snow as if making no sound, until the toe of the shoes came into view, and Qi Dongqing realized that her face was pressed against a pair of warm hands.

"Just walked away for a while, why did our Dongqing turn into a crying bag again?" Zhong Huaiyuan was confused by the other party's red eyes, "I seem to have been making you cry."

Qi Dongqing didn't know how to describe his series of reactions, so he could only let him wipe away the moisture from his eyes with his fingertips.

"Miss you..." He whispered.

Zhong Huaiyuan didn't hear clearly: "What?"

"I miss you very much." Qi Dongqing ruthlessly bit her lips and said, "I have missed you so much these past two years, and I dare not say anything when I am wronged at work, for fear of affecting your writing paper. Being able to face your photo... and it's not too big, it's very uncomfortable..."

"I don't like this, I really don't like it!"

When I get emotional, because no one here can understand Mandarin, the boss dares to say anything for a while.After venting, I realized that I said a lot of frivolous things just now, but I am not in the mood to correct it right now.

Facing the cute straightforwardness, Zhong Huaiyuan couldn't help rubbing his swollen bun face, and reached out to pinch his earballs exposed outside the bear's scarf: "Obviously I can't help it, why are you always in the video?" Lie to me that it's okay?"

"It's for you!" Qi Dongqing shyly pushed the gift into his arms, trying to shove off the topic, no matter how abrupt the turning point was.

The lemon herbal fragrance was chilled by the cold air and stimulated a deeper level of refreshment. Zhong Huaiyuan lowered his head and sniffed the paper bag, and smiled knowingly: "Are you sure you didn't buy this for yourself?" At the end, he leaned over and whispered: " It smells similar to mine, as if I was holding you."

Qi Dongqing's whole body exuded pink low air pressure, which had no deterrent effect at all. She was so ashamed that she could only stomp her feet, kicking up a cloud of snow slag.

He finally found that the other party's hands were empty, and pouted in dissatisfaction: "Where's mine?"

What answered him was Zhong Huaiyuan's pretended deep silence, Qi Dongqing raised his head to meet the scorching gaze, the seriousness in the other's eyes made him suddenly feel a little nervous.

Surprising whistles gradually came from the dark and crowded park square, and the warm yellow lights belonging to the street lights lit up one after another, approaching like waves from a distance, flowing behind him and blooming fiery trees and silver flowers.The lanterns bloomed grandly like flames in Zhong Huaiyuan's eyes, Qi Dongqing was attracted by the colorful dream, and couldn't help getting closer.

The halo of light floating in the darkness curled up like smoke, and Zhong Huaiyuan took out a square object wrapped in velvet from his pocket amidst the ambiguous colors.

Qi Dongqing clearly saw that the custom-made engraving on the inside of the ring was a holly leaf and a mountain of simple strokes, which could not have been bought just now.So he immediately stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing to open the box, and whispered in a daze: "How can you disrespect the rules of the game..."

The lid of the box was completely pushed away by Zhong Huaiyuan, and the broken diamonds fell like stardust on the Mobius ring symbolizing eternity.People in love attract each other like fate, slowly twist and entangle, until death.

"If you don't play tricks, you will definitely not be able to deceive you. You are so smart, maybe you will beat me before." Zhong Huaiyuan admitted that he deliberately found an excuse to send Dongqing away to the shop to get the ring, and he knew that at this time tonight, the park There will be a Christmas tree lighting ceremony, and everything is just right, "I have something to say tonight."

"Well, I'm listening." Qi Dongqing felt her cheeks slightly hot, and the flush on both sides was as ripe as berries hanging on a Christmas tree.

"Whether changing majors is the best solution has always been a knot in my heart. You let me reconcile with this tangled past and find the answer to balance my emotions. If I can't change this fact, I might as well think about this path. What other directions are worth choosing?"

Regret, like hatred, is a strong emotion that can grind people's minds and blind people's eyes. Fortunately, Holly led him out.

"When I changed the track of my life, you believed more firmly than me that I could achieve results on this road. I was lucky to meet you at the fork of this 'road of no return', attracted by you, liked you, In love with you. It all happened so logically that I sometimes forgot to think."

A trace of complex emotions gradually floated in Zhong Huaiyuan's eyes, mixed with self-blame, annoyance and distress.

"I have never seriously thought about why you always accept all my choices gently? Your sensibility has become an excuse for me to ignore your feelings. Relying on your support, I gradually become unscrupulous—including coming to the UK to study, None of the reasons for my hesitation were based on the assumption that you would object."

"Under your unlimited tolerance for me, my thinking has gradually entered into a misunderstanding. In fact, no one is born to like to compromise, and neither are you. It is my concern for you that has never really been implemented. I am always fortunate to have a kind An understanding lover who ignores the unspoken pain you endured for it."

Qi Dongqing stared at the intersecting points of the dreambius ring in the box, and admitted: "Being a sensible lover is very tiring, and I am really sad occasionally. Maybe you can't understand how greedy the heart that fell first is. .My reason tells me that I can't be willful, but it never understands the difficulties of the brain."

"These emotional problems stemming from a lack of security are just a small part of our relationship. There is nothing wrong with your carelessness and my sensitivity. We still have a long time to adapt and change." Qi Dongqing complained clearly, But the strange thing is that his original emotions gradually stabilized, "Is that all you want to tell me?"

The foreshadowing is a bit long, just for the common but unavoidable words.

"Holly, I can't promise with certainty that I won't let you experience similar waiting in the future. You also know that it happens from time to time in Renji aid and even foreign aid. Sometimes I have to give up wanting to stay with you out of justice. Selfishness around me. But what I can guarantee is that every time a task is issued, I will tell you as soon as possible, and I will never make my own decisions." Zhong Huaiyuan's hand on the box began to unsteady, and the pair of rings shook in the groove, "I am It is true that I did not perform well in love, but I still want to implore you to enter into a marriage relationship with me."

He twisted one of the smaller rings, and nervously pulled Holly's hand out of the plush glove: "Holly, are you willing to accept me as your life partner?"

Even a person who is fast enough to hold a lancet will tremble like a freshman taking an anatomy class for the first time while holding a small ring. Qi Dongqing couldn't help laughing at this rare uneasiness.

He pressed his wrist down, raised his palm and at the same time inserted his left middle finger into the ring accurately.The gravitational force of the heart acts on the fingertips, and the love goes on and on, and he is willing to be trapped in it.

While ∞ is defined as infinity, it also symbolizes endlessness.Qi Dongqing and Zhong Huaiyuan seem to be independent, but as long as they set out in any direction, they will eventually return to the original position through the ring surface of the other party——

Just like their stories, there is no unclear pursuit direction, only the inextricable reincarnation.The starting point is each other, and the end point is also each other.

Theend.
