The old woman nodded with a smile, and suddenly looked a lot more kind.

"It doesn't matter, my place is just an old pawn shop. Seeing how young you are, you should not be interested in the things here. Come here again when you have a chance."

After speaking, she turned around and staggered to leave.Looking at that old and lonely back, Qu Ningning suddenly felt a little sad.

An old man who has lived in this kind of place all year round, and finally waited for a guest to come, but turned around and left, must feel very uncomfortable.

"Grandma, can you take me to see your collection?"

"it is good."

Qu Ningning followed the figure of the old woman to the back room, pushed open the door, only to find that the room was brightly lit and clean.
The two rows are tall display cabinets, each of which contains goods, and it seems that someone often cleans the place.

Qu Ningning gradually let go of his guard, so he watched carefully.

There are old vases, exquisite wood-carved brocade boxes, some grotesque hand puppets, and yellowish drawing paper anyway.

This place is not just like a pawn shop, but more like an old museum, recording a long history.

"Did these things come from someone else?"

"Well, everything has its own story behind it. Either sad or happy, pure or dirty, in short, they are all alive."

The old lady's voice was old and powerful, and when she looked at these things, her eyes were full of affection and pride, as if these things were not her goods, but her treasures.

Qu Ningning was suddenly very interested in what the old woman said. After watching it carefully for a while, he turned his head and asked, "They all have their own stories? Could it be that there is something else behind it?"

"For example, this ring." The old lady took out a ring from a brocade box.

Qu Ningning took the ring and carefully observed it for a long time, only to find that the ring was not inlaid with diamonds, but a red bean.

"One whole universe for one red bean." The old lady said with a smile, as if recalling something, with regret in the corner of her eyes.

"This is a couple of young people. The girl likes to carry two red beans in her pocket the most. The boy has never confessed his love until he made this red bean ring. When he goes to see the girl, the girl's life is in a hurry. It's too late for everything."

It's really a sad story. If I add a few more words, it is mixed with so many regrets and regrets.

Qu Ningning gently held the ring and handed it back to the old woman, and said with a light smile, "Well, although the story is very poignant, the meaning is very bleak, so..."

The old woman took the ring with a smile, put it carefully in the box, and put it back into the previous cabinet on tiptoe.

"I know what you mean, this ring seems to represent the final separation of lovers, so you don't want to part with your lover, do you?"

Qu Ningning was stunned, what the old woman said was reasonable, she had never understood her thoughts before.

That's right, she thought of Rong Lixing at that moment, it was just an ordinary birthday present, but she subconsciously didn't want to be separated from him.

The contract between the two seemed to be invalidating bit by bit, perhaps it should be said that her heart fell in love with him slowly and unknowingly.

In the end, he did not deny it, and Qu Ningning responded to the old woman's question with silence,

The old woman didn't care, she walked a few more steps with a cane while smiling, and came to a tall cabinet, she tiptoed and tried to get the top box of the cabinet, but she couldn't reach it with all her strength.

Qu Ningning said softly, "I'll come."

Standing on tiptoe with ease, the slender fingertips touched the dusty box, and after taking it off, the old woman smiled and beckoned her to open it.

After dusting off the dust on it, and opening the box, lying quietly inside was an ordinary bracelet made of black nylon rope.
However, there is a black star on the bracelet, which is almost invisible if you don't look carefully.

"Black star?"

"Well, someone gave it a name before. It's called the only star in the world."

Indeed, Qu Ningning picked it up and weighed it carefully for a while. The stars in this world are colorful. In short, I have never seen black ones. They are indeed unique.

"Is this a sad story too?"

"No, this is a story of reunion. The boy and the girl have been separated for a long time because of missing, but the boy has always worn this rope on his wrist, which is a token of love between the two. Finally, when the two of them reunited, they lamented the original They were all standing there waiting for each other."

"Later, since it is such a beautiful thing, why should it be used as it?"

Qu Ningning took the bracelet and left this small shop hidden among the streets. After walking a few steps, she looked back and thought that she would never come again in this life. However, she must take good care of the things in her hands. conserved.

First, I took this star bracelet and found a cleaning shop. After cleaning it carefully, the color is much brighter than before.

Holding it up in the sun, although the black copper star does not shine brightly, Qu Ningning still feels that it exudes a unique charm.

"The only star in the world." Qu Ningning murmured the name again, and unconsciously added another sentence, "You are the only one in the world."

As soon as the words fell, she opened her eyes wide, feeling deeply curious about what she just said. She didn't know why she blurted out such hypocritical and pleading love words, and the appearance of the man in her mind resurfaced again.

Qu Ningning carefully put the chain into the box, and then carefully put it back into the bag.

She thought that at night, she would treat it as a birthday surprise and give it to Rong Lixing as a gift.

Arriving at the agreed coffee shop, there was elegant and beautiful light music as soon as he entered. Jiang Yicheng seemed to have come here to wait for a long time. When he saw Qu Ningning, his eyebrows and eyes were all smiling.

"here……"

He stood up and called Qu Ningning softly, the corners of his mouth became wider and wider, not only joy but also excitement.

Qu Ningning saw Jiang Yicheng wearing a white T-shirt and sweatpants in the corner, and suddenly he was back in college. Jiang Yicheng was always sweating on the basketball court dressed like this all his life.

She silently stayed by his side to cheer him up, and the classmates at that time would all agree that Qu Ningning and Rong Lixing were a natural match.

"Yo, Grandma Jiang is here to bring water to Master Jiang."

Every time someone teased her, Qu Ningning would bow her head in embarrassment, and coyly tell these people not to talk nonsense.

But every time.With a gentle smile on his face, Jiang Yicheng walked to Qu Ningning's side, then put his arms around her waist, and said to those people with a light smile.

"Stop making trouble, don't frighten my future wife."

"Yo, now I'm starting to protect my wife."

Booing sounded one after another.

However, everything can't go back...

The waiter next to her came over and interrupted her thoughts.

"Ma'am, how many are you?"

"I'm looking for a friend," she replied lightly, so she put away the sadness on her face and walked towards Jiang Yicheng calmly.

Jiang Yicheng was pleasantly surprised to see Qu Ningning standing in front of him, he smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for coming to see me."

"After all, there are some things that need to be clarified." Qu Ningning ignored him and sat directly opposite him.

Seeing her indifferent response, Jiang Yicheng was obviously stunned for a moment, then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he also sat down.

Qu Ningning stared at the man in front of her seriously, the man who used to be the light in her heart now looked haggard, even the light had dimmed.

"The engagement banquet last time was messed up like that by me. Please also apologize to uncle for me."

Her voice was very low, and when it reached Jiang Yicheng's ears, he just smiled indifferently.

"It's okay, father doesn't like such a daughter-in-law either."

"You came to me today, didn't you say you have something to tell me?"

Qu Ningning didn't want to say unnecessary words, she raised her wrist and looked at her watch, she hadn't had time to order a cake, at this moment, even though Jiang Yicheng was sitting across from her, all she could think about was Rong Lixing.

Seeing her absent-mindedness, although Jiang Yicheng was not very happy, he still looked courteous and flattering, and continued: "Before you came, I ordered you your favorite cheesecake and Americano coffee without sugar .”

"Jiang Yicheng, cheesecake will make you fat, coffee without sugar is really bitter, you don't understand me anymore."

Qu Ningning's words were like a hailstone hitting Jiang Yicheng's heart, and the hope he had built up so hard finally came to naught.

"Everything in this world will change. His love for her and Qu Ningning's attachment to him will eventually be let go." She said slowly.

Jiang Yicheng still didn't give up, he frowned slightly, and asked urgently: "Then what do you like to eat now, I'll ask the waiter to bring it over immediately, and I will write down everything you like to eat in a notebook in the future, absolutely not Incorrect."

Seeing his affectionate and flattering appearance, Qu Ningning felt very sour in his heart.

Qu Ningning sighed and had to remind: "Jiang Yicheng, I'm already married."

Her expression looked calm, there was no wave in her eyes, and even her tone was calm.

The voice stopped abruptly, and when Jiang Yicheng raised his head to look at Qu Ningning again, he remained silent.

He is not unwilling to accept such a fact, but unwilling.

"Are you still blaming me for being with Qu Qingqing?" He asked her angrily.

Strange?She was stunned, and blurted out: "You betrayed me."

"I didn't!" Jiang Yicheng roared, his whole body seemed to be shaking because of forbearance.

Qu Ningning frowned, not knowing why Jiang Yicheng would say that.
