After she died, Mr. Bo knelt in front of the tombstone and cried like a dog.

In the barbecue restaurant, people come and go, and the oil smoke is relatively heavy.

This was the first time for Yan Chen to come to such a "down-to-earth" restaurant, and he was obviously not familiar with the process of ordering and picking up food.

Qiao Yu scanned the QR code on the table, selected some dishes, and handed the phone to Yan Chen.

"Brother Yan, take a look at what you want to eat, just click the plus sign to add it to the shopping cart."

Yan Chen glanced at the dishes and pointed out seriously: "The meat quality of M9 Wagyu beef is not as good as the picture, and the price cannot be so cheap. Is this edible?"

Qiao Yu: "...poof."

Seeing that she couldn't help but laugh, Yan Chen was slightly startled and explained, "I didn't mean that. I was afraid that the merchant would use inferior beef as a substitute. Are you sure you want to dine in this restaurant? It might make you hungry."

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "I often eat this kind of fake wagyu, so it doesn't hurt my stomach. It's quite delicious."

"..."

She shouldn't bring Yan Chen to eat in this kind of restaurant, Yan Chen can't get used to it.

She should take Yan Chen to eat spicy hotpot from a roadside stall, which would make him even more uncomfortable with it.

"Brother Yan, you are suitable for something better."

Be it restaurants or people.

Yan Chen did not think deeply, "What you think is delicious, I will definitely think it is delicious too. I didn't like to try new things before. If I think a certain restaurant is of good quality, I will keep eating it. But if you like to try , I can accompany you to check in."

"Brother Yan, you don't have to adapt your habits to cater to me. We are different, with different hobbies, different tastes, and different habits."

"I can try, what if I like what you like too?"

Yan Chen looked at her with a slightly anxious voice.

Qiao Yu was stunned for a few seconds, then moved on to the topic without leaving any trace: "Then you can try the barbecue in this restaurant later."

The carbon fire comes up.

Yan Chen took off his suit jacket, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and helped Qiao Yu barbecue.

But the first time he did this, he seemed clumsy.

Qiao Yu didn't laugh at him, just took the barbecue tongs in his hand, and said half-jokingly, half-seriously: "I'll do it. If you grill it, you won't be able to eat until the year of the monkey."

"..."

Yan Chen had no choice but to give up.

He looked at Qiao Yu's skillful movements and felt a little embarrassed: "It's because I have no experience. This kind of thing should be done by men."

Qiao Yu didn't think it was anything, so he gave him a piece of roasted meat with public chopsticks, "Eat it quickly."

Yan Chen held the piece of barbecue and was about to eat it directly.

Qiao Yu reminded him: "You can dip it into a dry dish or into sauce. If you eat it directly, the taste will be very bland."

Yan Chen followed her instructions and dipped some dry food into the dish.

"what about the taste?"

Yan Chen frowned unconsciously, "...very good."

In fact, it was a bit salty for him. He was used to having a light taste and had never eaten anything heavy.

This dry dish is not only salty, but also a bit spicy.

Qiao Yu didn't expose his white lie and just said: "Tastes are hard to change, and so are the people you like."

"Xiao Huan..."

Qiao Yu interrupted him directly, "Brother Yan, you will definitely be able to find someone who has the same taste as you in the future."

Clearly, she's not that person.

Yan Chen's face turned serious.

He put down his chopsticks, looked at Qiao Yu seriously and said, "Taste is just a small thing. I like French food, but that doesn't mean I can't eat hot pot. Maybe this is my first time eating barbecue, and I'm not used to it, but Xiao Huan, I hope you can give me some time, or I hope you are willing to let me get to know you."

Through the smoke of sizzling barbecue.

Qiao Yu also said seriously: "I have loved someone for seven years, and all my feelings and love have been used up on him. Brother Yan, I don't have any strength to love anyone now. If I give it to you now It’s a chance for you to get to know me. I know that I don’t have a clear heart, but I still want to give you a chance. That would be too bad of me.”

"What if I say I don't mind? I can wait until you feel clean..."

"What if I can't pick it off again in my life?"

Yan Chen was stunned.

They were silent for several seconds, and then he asked: "Is Bao Hanshi so good? Is it worth remembering for a lifetime?"

"It doesn't matter whether he is good or not. I just don't have confidence in myself. I'm not sure if I can really remove him from my heart. I won't consider new relationships until I remove him completely. Brother Yan, you are my savior. I I don’t want to be sorry for you, and I can’t be sorry for you.”

"Xiao Huan, actually you can hang on to me. I am willing to wait. I can wait until you forget about Bo Han..."

"I do not want to."

She paused, then deliberately added another blow, "I mean, I don't want to forget Bo Hanshi."

Qiao Yu is very good at killing people.

Yan Chen froze there, pulling his lips and smiling helplessly, "Xiao Huan, do you really want to reject me so simply? You said before that it was impossible for you and Bo Han..."

"Yes, it is impossible for me and him, but it is even more impossible for me and others. Brother Yan, do you know that there is exclusivity in relationships?"

He naturally knows that there is exclusivity in an intimate relationship.

"But you and Bo Han have actually been separated for six years. Do you still have exclusivity?"

"Yes, I can't accept other people at all. Brother Yan, I don't want to lie to you. Whether it's psychologically or physically, I can't accept other people. A relationship, separated for so many years, still has such a strong exclusivity, or I owed it to Bo Hanshi in my previous life, or I was sick or abnormal. So, I don’t want to drag other people down.”

After Qiao Yu finished speaking, Yan Chen fell into silence.

He suddenly laughed, "I have never even competed head-on with Bo Hanshi, but I have already lost. I didn't lose to Bo Hanshi, I lost to you. Xiaohuan, you didn't give me any chance, even if It’s just hanging me, and you don’t even want to.”

"Feel sorry."

Yan Chen swallowed his throat and chuckled forcefully. After all, he was unwilling to give in. "Am I too bad to be in your eyes, or am I so good in Baohan that you can't forget it? I don't want to hear that. High-sounding words, Xiao Huan, I want to hear the truth."

"neither."

He wanted an answer to, "What was that?"

Qiao Yu smiled lightly and said in a very calm tone: "Because I love him, I can't love anyone else. As for why I love him, if you insist on asking me why, then I can only say that when I love Bo Han, I can't love him any more." This thing seems to have become my instinct for a long time, just like people need to eat and drink water. My love for him is a disease. I am terminally ill. No one can save me, and I don’t want to be saved by others. .”

Yan Chen was also moved, and a flash of distress flashed in his eyes, "Then why did you leave him? Did he drive you away?"

Qiao Yu lowered her face and shook her head slightly, "There is a blood feud between me and him. I may continue to love him uncontrollably, but I will not take another step towards him."

"Xiao Huan, you will be very tired if you do this."

What can I do?

The wheel of fate pushed her here, and she had no choice but to endure it.

Qiao Yu's eyes were red from the smoke of the charcoal fire.

She blinked hard and continued to bake, "Eat quickly, it's already past seven o'clock. If you don't hurry up, the concert will be late."

Yan Chen wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.

The only thing he can do now is to accompany her through it.

After eating the barbecue, Yan Chen was a little thirsty.

Qiao Yu followed him down to the first floor and went to the supermarket to buy water.

There are many people in the supermarket.

Qiao Yu and Yan Chen looked like an ordinary couple, picking up drinks on the shelves.

After buying water, the two went to the cashier to pay.

On the shelf, a tall figure walked over, a cold white slender hand took a bottle of water, and followed to check out.

The bottle of water in his hand was touched by Qiao Yu just now, took it, and put it back on the shelf.

He just followed Qiao Yu, separated from the crowd at a distance.

He wasn't sure how far Qiao Yu and Yan Chen had progressed, but it was probably good. They were all going to the supermarket together.

Going to the supermarket is a very intimate act for Bo Hanshi.

Because shopping in the supermarket will expose your preferences and daily life.

He won't go to the supermarket with anyone except Qiao Yu.

After breaking up with Qiao Yu, he never went to the supermarket again and asked Xu Zheng to buy daily necessities.

He wanted to go to Song Zhi's place for MECT treatment, but when he was really lying there, he ran away again.

Song Zhi almost blew up his phone.

He didn't answer any of them and rushed to Nancheng overnight.

He was still unwilling to give in, so he wanted to come to Nancheng to see how far Qiao Yu and Yan Chen had developed.

I just wanted to see if Yan Chen loved her more than him.

He was afraid that Yan Chen, like Jiang Yuchuan, would just be interested in Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu is beautiful, and is recognized as beautiful in the eyes of men.

To put it more bluntly, Qiao Yu's face is the first love face in the eyes of all men.

It's not surprising that Jiang Yuchuan liked her at first.

He also knew early on that Jiang Yuchuan was interested in Qiao Yu, but he never felt that it was a threat because he was sure of how much he loved Qiao Yu.

Bo Hanshi was like that, following behind them.

His eyes always followed Qiao Yu.

Perhaps the emotional connection between them is so deep that they can have telepathy. After following him for a while, Qiao Yu would always look back.

But every time, he avoided it.

The way he dressed today was very different from usual, with a completely different style.

In front of Qiao Yu, he didn't wear anything like this, and he was wearing a baseball cap and a mask. Even if he didn't hide, Qiao Yu might not be able to recognize him.

When he was almost walking to the car, Yan Chen also noticed that she always looked back, "Xiao Huan, what are you looking at?"

"Brother Yan, do you feel that someone has been following us?"

Yan Chen didn't feel it, "No, are you afraid of crowds because you haven't been out for a long time?"

Qiao Yu also felt that she was suspicious, "Maybe, maybe I'm more sensitive."

"Get in the car, it's getting late."

Wait until they get in the car.

Bo Hanshi also got into a car, a black Volkswagen. He didn't have time to buy a car, so he came to Nancheng to rent it.

Ahead, a black Bentley merged into traffic and drove towards the Grand Theater.

The black Volkswagen followed the Bentley two cars apart.

Qiao Yu's left eyelid always twitches.

She opened the car window and glanced in the rearview mirror. The cars following them were a small Mercedes-Benz, a Santana, and behind them was a black Volkswagen.

In the cold weather, the cheapest car in the garage costs millions.

What was she thinking, and why did she feel that Bao Hanshi was following her?

Yan Chen asked: "Still think someone is following us?"

Qiao Yu nodded, "Yeah, but it shouldn't be possible."

Bao Hanshi always kept his word, and when he said let go, he would never drag his feet, let alone come to Nancheng to cut off the connection with her.

Moreover, the cars behind him did not fit his identity at all.

It can't be him.

Qiao Yu closed the car window and stopped paying attention.

When she reached the entrance of the Grand Theater, she was walking in front. When she looked up, she saw a black reflection on the glass door of the entrance of the Grand Theater.

She felt a little familiar...

A pause in pace.
