Three or Two Things about Rebirth

Lena's voice stopped abruptly.

Qiu Luming glanced at Lena sharply, pointing at her for three seconds, then suddenly stopped. He turned around and reached out to take out a small bag of flour and bread dumplings from the cupboard as if nothing had happened.

Lena was stunned.

——How did I get into trouble with this witch again!

Two months ago, they had argued for more than half an hour over some territorial issues on the north bank of the Heilongjiang River. She proudly took out a world map and pointed at it with her finger, saying, "Don't worry about whether it was stolen or not, it's all ours now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a numbness in her elbow and the map fell to the ground. She was wondering why her arm was numb when Vera stepped on the map, leaving a clear footprint on the map of the world's largest land area. She slammed the door and went back to her room.

Lena realized it later and screamed, why? Why did she feel like she was electrocuted when she was just touched lightly?

Lena was worried. Could it be that this Chinese girl who was good at cooking had other magical powers?

A few days later, she witnessed something even more bizarre. A girl suddenly fainted in the library. When everyone was panicking, Vera walked over and pressed twice under the girl's nose (pinch the Ren Zhong point), and the girl woke up immediately. She touched the girl's stomach again (untied the belt that was too tight), and the girl recovered immediately!

From then on, she gave this roommate, with whom she had lived for more than half a year, a new title in her heart: the Eastern Witch.

Seeing Sergei coming today, she was very happy that she could take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy delicious food again, so she got a little carried away and offended the witch as soon as she opened her mouth.

Lena felt that she couldn't move or speak at all. She felt a stream of air rushing straight to her mouth, and she became speechless.

Fear brought tears to her eyes.

Sasha quickly begged for mercy, "Vera Vera, Lena was just joking! Please forgive her!"

Sasha Bilena believed that Qiu Luming knew spells and magic. He had watched a documentary about Chinese witchcraft. In that mysterious ancient country, some people could drive corpses, some could cast spells, some could perform shaman dances, and some could call the wind and rain and kill people without anyone noticing. At the end of the documentary, it said that most of the officials in the Qing Dynasty were incompetent and afraid of death, but the masters were among the people, and many children could fly over eaves and walls and hurt people with flying leaves.

Sasha shuddered and looked at the cold Vera, remembering that at the beginning of this year, he also lived with Lena. He woke up with a splitting headache and a tight throat. It was this Vera who clamped the skin under his Adam's apple with just two finger joints and pulled it twice, leaving a large purple area on his neck. Lena was so scared that she screamed, but Vera didn't let her move. She used her thumbs and index fingers to quickly squeeze out a row of four-pointed stars on his forehead. He was also very scared and tried several times, but couldn't squeeze out any stars.

Miraculously, he immediately felt refreshed, his headache went away, and his throat felt better too!

What was even more terrifying was the last time, when his neck hurt so much that he couldn't turn his head and his head was dizzy. It was Vera again. Without saying a word, she lit a piece of paper covered with oriental characters and threw it into the teacup. When the paper was about to burn out, she suddenly put the teacup on the back of his neck. He felt the back of his neck tighten, and he suddenly felt like a dog with its neck held by the back, unable to move.

Thinking of this, he pleaded more sincerely, "We were wrong, please forgive us!"

Sergei stood there in a daze.

Qiu Luming gently pushed Lena away and said, "Go away, don't get in the way here, go somewhere cooler!"

Lena seemed to come back to life after being pushed. She wiped away her tears and threw herself into Sasha's arms aggrievedly. The two hugged each other tightly as if they had survived a disaster. Sasha supported Lena, whose legs were weak, and hurried back to the dormitory.

Then she heard Sasha complaining in the next room, "She's going to graduate soon and go back to China. Why can't you control yourself and have to mess with this oriental witch?"

Lena cried, "I didn't provoke her, I was just joking with Sergei, who knew she was so petty!"

Sergey smiled and said, "Qiu, what have you done to them?"

"Lena is my friend, how could I do anything to them!"

"It looks like they are afraid of you."

"You know, our country has a history of 5,000 years. Of the four ancient civilizations, only China is left. You can imagine the reason." Qiu Luming smiled mysteriously, "Don't think that I can only cook. I know some witchcraft. If you eat the food I cook, you will listen to me obediently and you will never escape from my control!"

Sergei laughed, "I couldn't ask for more!"

Qiu Luming's ears twitched, and he continued, "It's just that they accidentally discovered my secret. They secretly called me the Eastern Witch!"

"Bang!" There was a sound of something falling to the ground at the door. Sergei quickly opened the half-closed door and saw Lena standing at the door with a sad face. "Sasha, what should we do? She knows everything!"

Sasha squatted on the ground and picked up the basin of raspberries. He looked at Sergei worriedly and quickly pulled Lena back.

Qiu Luming had already served two bowls of ginger soup. "Sergei! Come and drink the ginger soup!"

***

Qiu Luming sat on the sofa by the window of the dormitory, leaning his head against the back of the sofa, staring at Sergei's handsome profile.

Sergei blushed as she looked at him. He sat down on the sofa from his desk and shook hands with her. "Qiu, I have already started applying to go to China, regardless of whether there is a suitable job. I just want to be with you. Maybe I can be a foreign teacher."

Qiu Luming smiled and pinched his nose, "Then you better think about it carefully!"

Sergei held the back of her hand and touched it to his lips. "I've made up my mind. Grandfather is very supportive of me!"

Since Qiu Luming started dating Sergei, what made her happiest was not Sergei's infatuation and respect for her, but her discovery that Sergei had always been safe and sound. Doesn't this prove that she is not "unlucky" in this life?

But what made her sad was that this also proved that she was only capable of sailing far away.

"Qiu, what are you thinking about?" Sergei waved his hand in front of her eyes.

“I wonder if we have a future.”

"Yes! We will definitely live the happiest life together! I want to have two children, a boy and a girl. It would be best if the boy is the older one, so that he can take care of his sister!" Sergei said with longing. The sunlight shone on his face through the window. Qiu Luming pinched his face. How could there be such a handsome man!

The pace of time is faster than the wind in Siberia.

Qiu Luming's final exam was in late June. She had been suffering from insomnia recently. She finally fell asleep and dreamed of Sergei chasing after a train and shouting, "Don't forget me, Qiu! Don't forget me!"

I always wake up in a sweat.

It was Sunday again. Qiu Luming and Sergei, who came back exhausted, went out for dinner and then went into a movie theater.

The movie playing was the American film "Brave Heart". Actually, they were not in the mood to watch the movie. Sergei's left arm stopped Qiu Luming. Amid the noisy background noise of the theater, she could clearly hear his gradually accelerating heartbeat, and at the same time, she sensitively captured the conversation between the two men in whispers.

The protagonist of the topic turned out to be herself!

Sergei noticed that her body was gradually tense and stiff, so he shook his head helplessly and hugged her gently. Qiu Luming sat up straight and looked sideways at Sergei's face in the flickering light and shadow. Sergei also turned his head to look at her, smiled and gently kissed her soft lips.

Sergei's kiss was passionate.

Qiu Luming's heart gradually grew cold.

——Why is it so difficult to find a partner?

It turned out that she had been under surveillance by the national security department and relevant school departments since she set foot on this land. Now, she has been under the focus of attention for three months.

The reason is Sergey!

Qiu Luming always knew that his unit was the St. Petersburg Shipyard, but she never thought that as a relevant technical personnel in the factory, Sergei's close contact with her, an international student, might be suspected of leaking information.

In addition, he applied to go abroad, so the two of them immediately became the focus of investigation by the national security department.
