Today's prison visit time has passed, and the end time is at 05:30.
And now the time is almost six o'clock.
When the guard explained the matter to Xu Qingyao, a look of panic appeared on her face.
Standing there for a few seconds at a loss, and gasping for breath, she finally recovered and responded.
She begged the other party to let her in, even if it was just for a look.
As long as I can see Si Yue and see what she looks like now, that's enough...
She is definitely not the kind of person who would do this, because she knows very well that each profession has its own rules, and no matter how powerful the big shots come, they should not be accommodating, and must follow the procedures.
And who is she, she is just the most ordinary person in the big world.
But by this time, she had already given up on so much, and the only thought in her mind was to go in and meet Si Yue.
Si Yue... She clenched her fists and clenched her teeth, waiting for the other party's response.
But the result can be imagined, the time for visiting the prison has passed, and it is impossible for them to allow any family members to go there.
Besides, family members need to bring their documents and go through the procedures to visit the prison. Even if the woman who begged them to go in and have a look at the prisoner came here before the time limit, but she has nothing now, it is also impossible for them to let her go. she goes in.
"Don't make trouble, let's go." The guard waved his hand impatiently, urging Xu Qingyao to leave.
Xu Qingyao, however, persisted, grabbed the other party's hand and begged them to let her in.
What she said was that there was someone very important to her inside, but no one would care whether the prisoner inside was important to her or not. It wasn't a matter of importance at all, understand?
"Hurry up, don't force us to be tough." Each guard will hold a long stick in his hand, just in case.
And if even long sticks can't stop the people who come here to act wildly, they each have a big fork, and this weapon is pressed against the body of those people, so that the other party can't get close to them.
For such a soft and weak woman, they try not to do anything if they can, but if this woman makes them anxious, don't blame them for being rude to her.
Xu Qingyao's tears fell uncontrollably. Even though the guard had already said this, she still didn't stop begging.
"Get out, get out quickly, don't come to hinder us! Get out!" The guard obviously wanted to push Xu Qingyao away with a long stick, but he resisted not doing this to a woman, but raised his voice and volume, forcefully Let Xu Qingyao go.
Xu Qingyao didn't want to be a person who hindered others like this, she never wanted to in this life.
But sometimes, if emotions really reach a certain point, then it is very likely that it is controlling people, rather than people controlling their own emotions.
Just like now, the strong desire to see Xu Siyue is controlling her, making her burst into tears uncontrollably, her cheeks are already covered with tears, and her body is covered with cold sweat.
"Okay! Let's go! You lunatic!" Facing the lunatic who was making trouble at the door, the guard couldn't bear it anymore, and directly poked Xu Qingyao's shoulder with a long stick and pushed hard.
Xu Qingyao didn't stand still and fell heavily to the ground. She was taken aback for a moment before finally waking up as if she had just woken up from a dream.
She sat stiffly on the ground for a few seconds, recovered and looked up at the guard. She saw a look of disdain on the guard's face, as if saying "you deserve it" to her.
The wound didn't know if it was torn, and she couldn't stop panting from the pain.
The pain spread from the stomach and shoulders to all the limbs, and there was no place in her body that was not painless, and it hurt so much that she wished she could die.
Under the contemptuous eyes of the guards, Xu Qingyao endured the pain and stood up again.
She didn't go any closer to the guard, but bowed to him with difficulty, and sincerely apologized to him.
The guard seemed to say something again, probably telling her to go away, but she couldn't hear it clearly.
She stood there, looking at her not-so-broad prison, with sweat dripping from her chin, gradually gathering small puddles at her feet.
It's a pity that she still can't know what it's like inside.
She had no way of knowing how Si Yue lived in it.
There was a wind blowing, brushing her hair that was already sticky due to sweat.
It was clearly supposed to be a warm wind in September, but when it blew on Xu Qingyao's body, it only made her feel a shivering chill.
The whole body was shaking violently like falling into an ice cave.
Time passed mercilessly by every minute and every second.
Xu Qingyao stood at the same spot and looked in for not knowing how long, until the guard couldn't see through and reminded her loudly again, then she slowly lowered her head, and her eyes fell on the puddle of water stains gathered on the ground in front of her.
It turned out that she had accumulated so much sweat unknowingly.
Xu Qingyao smiled self-deprecatingly, with a very shallow smile on the corner of her lips.
Every effort, even if it is just as light as it is now, consumes her greatest strength.
A black mist filled in front of her eyes, Xu Qingyao shook her head, trying to disperse the black mist.
It's a pity that the fog was not dispelled by her, but her own headache got worse.
Si Yue.
Closing her eyes, Xu Qingyao silently recited Xu Siyue's name in her heart.
After a while, she finally turned around and walked out silently by herself.
"girl!"
Suddenly there was a voice behind her, she stopped slowly, and turned around with great effort.
It was as if countless poisonous insects were constantly gnawing on her whole body, but she could only pretend to be safe.
I don't know whether it's because she's disguised too well, or those people don't care about a stranger, and no one can see her disguise.
She subconsciously thought, if Si Yue was standing in front of her at this moment, then she would definitely...
The thought stopped abruptly here, Xu Qingyao didn't let herself continue to think about it.
Memories are beautiful, but what about reality?
She was stopped by the guard.
Although she caused some trouble to the other party due to impulsiveness just now, he still kindly reminded Xu Qingyao that she should not make a trip in vain tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and she is not allowed to visit the prison on weekends.
Xu Qingyao thanked the other party, and glanced across the prison again and again.
Gathering her thoughts, she continued to walk back, the light in her eyes had already lost color, and her steps were vain, making this stubborn body look like it would collapse at any moment.
Star City Prison is surrounded by green trees on both sides, and the surrounding area is sparsely populated.
Xu Qingyao walked slowly along the street, everything in front of her eyes was a blur.
In fact, she really doesn't want to go back, she just wants to stay here with Si Yue, but it's a pity that her thinking is only her thinking after all.
She couldn't get in, and couldn't see Si Yue.
I can't see it today, I can't see it tomorrow, and I can't see it the day after tomorrow.
No one came to tell her what she should do now.
After walking for a while, she suddenly stopped again and squatted down.
Wrapping her arms around her knees, Xu Qingyao buried her head in it.
Ignoring the severe pain in her shoulder, Xu Qingyao's shoulder was constantly trembling, and muffled sobs came from under her deeply buried face.
It seems that I have become accustomed to pain and numbness, and there will not be so much pain in the wound.
But in fact, it is just that the pain in the heart is better than other places, and the pain is added to the pain, while the pain in the body is ignored.
Xu Qingyao is in pain now, and she can't stop crying.
It's just that she didn't dare to vent it out wantonly, and was still deliberately suppressing herself.
Another gust of wind blew the leaves behind her rustling.
A whole row of green trees full of vitality makes the squatting weak figure even more lonely, but it is just the most insignificant speck of dust in the vast world.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Xu Qingyao's cell phone suddenly vibrated a few times in her pocket.
She didn't seem to hear it at all, and didn't respond.
In the following time, her phone vibrated countless times.
But every time, she turned a deaf ear.
It was not until another unknown period of time passed that she finally raised her head.
Sweat and tears are mixed together, and it has long been completely unclear.
Xu Qingyao sniffed, and barely stood up with her palms on the tree trunk.
A sudden colic in her stomach made her breathe stagnant, and a sense of nausea rushed up from her stomach. She subconsciously covered her mouth and bent over to retch in pain.
But in the end she couldn't spit out anything, instead the wound was torn a few times, the pain made her almost out of breath.
Leaning against the tree trunk with difficulty, Xu Qingyao opened her lips slightly, breathing in small mouthfuls.
It looks like a dying fish out of water.
The phone started vibrating again.
This time Xu Qingyao finally felt the slight sound.
The vibrating sound lasted for a long time, and it could only be that someone called her.
The only person she can think of is Xiao Xian.
It should be that Xiaoxian went back to the ward again, and was anxious when she realized that she was not obediently waiting in the ward.
Xu Qingyao knew that she had done something wrong with this matter, maybe she should have informed Xiaoxian before she left.
But Xiaoxian would really agree that she dragged her current body to...the prison to see Xu Siyue?
Xu Qingyao didn't know, although she was willing to believe that communication was effective, she had already come here, and if she had a choice next time, she believed that she would still do so.
After answering Xiaoxian's call, Xu Qingyao was caught off guard by crying and shouting.
Xiaoxian asked loudly where Xu Qingyao had gone, why she sneaked out of the ward without saying a word, and didn't answer her text messages or answer her calls just now.
These words were so hoarse that Xu Qingyao's heart throbbed when he heard them.
She could hear that Xiaoxian was already suppressing her emotions, and after she got on the phone at this moment, all her suppressed emotions couldn't be controlled like a volcanic eruption.
"Xiaoxian, I..." Xu Qingyao was at a loss for words, and her eyelids became heavier.
"Sister Xu, where are you now!" Xiaoxian didn't care what she wanted to say to apologize, the only thing she wanted to know was her current location, "Tell me quickly, I'll find you right now!"
"I... I'm in Xingcheng Prison..." Xu Qingyao felt relieved when he finally said these four words. Lie unconscious on the ground.
"Sister Xu! Sister Xu! Xu Qingyao, answer me! Xu Qingyao!" Xiaoxian's roar continued to sound through the phone receiver, but no matter how Xiaoxian yelled, Xu Qingyao couldn't hear anything in the end.
She was completely plunged into a dark abyss.
Like a wisp of duckweed, wandering with no support, she is left alone from now on.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Xu Qingyao slowly opened her eyes.
This is her waking up in the hospital ward again, and her eyes are still the dazzling white.
With a splitting headache, she wanted to raise her hand to hold her forehead, but found that she had no strength at all.
"Sister Xu, you've finally woken up..." A familiar voice sounded next to her ear, and one could hear a bit of surprise in her tone, but more of it was sadness.
"Well, I..." Xu Qingyao responded with difficulty, but found that her voice was terribly deep and hoarse, as if she had poured countless dust into her throat.
"Don't talk yet, take a good rest, and listen to me later." Knowing that Xu Qingyao must be very uncomfortable now, Xiaoxian stopped her from continuing to speak.
Xu Qingyao just looked at her quietly with half-closed eyes, without words or movements, she was as obedient as a patient should be.
In the following time, Xu Qingyao slowed down for a while, feeling that her head was not as painful and dizzy as when she woke up just now, and then she heard Xiaoxian talk about everything that happened during her coma.
In fact, not much happened, but even if only one of them was mentioned, it was enough to make Xiao Xian collapse.
After hearing Xu Qingyao's silence, Xiaoxian knew that something must have happened to her, so she immediately took a taxi and rushed to her side.
For an hour, she felt that her heart was about to explode, and worrying about Xu Qingyao made her go crazy.
Fortunately, the prison is located in a remote place, and generally no one would go there.
What's more, it was already past the visiting time at that time, so it was even more impossible for someone to go there on purpose.
When she found Xu Qingyao's figure lying under a tree by the side of the road, her heart stopped suddenly at that second, her head buzzed, and she rushed over to check on her sister Xu's condition.
On the way from Xingcheng Prison to No.1 People's Hospital, Xiaoxian tried to call her countless times.
But never once did she wake up.
After sleeping in the hospital for a day and two nights, Xu Qingyao finally woke up.
During this time, Xiaoxian stayed by her unconscious side almost all the time, and did not dare to close her eyes. Every time she dozed off and accidentally fell asleep, she would wake up again within half an hour at most.
After so many repetitions, this incident has already tortured Xiaoxian and made her restless.
Fortunately, Xu Qingyao finally opened her eyes. For Xiaoxian, everything she did before was worthwhile.
In fact, Xiaoxian didn't reveal to Xu Qingyao that she couldn't sleep well because she cared about her sister Xu, but just from her haggard face, Xu Qingyao could guess that it was pretty close.
With tears in her eyes, Xu Qingyao raised her head, suppressed the wetness again, and said in an unusually hoarse voice: "Xiaoxian... I'm sorry..."
Xiaoxian didn't speak, but forced a bleak smile and shook her head lightly.
Now that those things were finished, Xiaoxian wanted Xu Qingyao to rest, but the latter continued to speak.
She said that she couldn't see Xu Siyue when she went to the prison, and she wouldn't see Xu Siyue in the next two days.
She said she was gone forever.
Retirement, or permanent resignation.
It sounds like four simple words, but it is like a sledgehammer, hitting Xiao Xian's heart heavily.
She knew that Xu Qingyao liked this career as an actor very much, and she once said that she would act for the rest of her life, until the day she couldn't act anymore, but now, why did she...
"Sister Xu, in fact, this matter has nothing to do with your acting career..." The last two words are "influence". Unfortunately, before Xiaoxian could continue, Xu Qingyao interrupted her.
Xu Qingyao: "Don't talk about Xiaoxian, I've already thought about it."
"Sister Xu..." Xiaoxian still seemed to feel sorry for Xu Qingyao's decision, but this is the end of the matter, so let it be, "Sister Xu, since you have already made your decision, then do it according to your ideas. "
Xiaoxian is willing to respect Xu Qingyao's decision.
As long as that decision is what she wants to make and what she thinks is right, then go for it.
After thinking about it, Xiaoxian suddenly said again: "But sister Xu, there are still two questions."
Xu Qingyao probably knew what these two questions were, but she still quietly waited for Xiaoxian to speak.
Xiao Xian showed embarrassment, but after hesitating for a while, she still raised those two questions.
The first question: She is currently filming a movie, how to deal with this movie, whether to continue filming after recovering from her injuries, or terminate the contract.
The second question: how to make the matter of retiring from the circle public, whether to hold a press conference.
As for these two questions, Xu Qingyao actually already had the answers in mind.
The holiday when Xu Qingyao was in a coma was taken by Xiaoxian for her because of illness.
The director easily granted her leave, and is still waiting for her with the entire crew to this day.
When Xu Qingyao chatted with the director about the termination of the contract in a video call on Saturday night, the first emotion expressed by the director was not anger, but worry.
Not only because he saw the hospital gown that Xu Qingyao was wearing on the other side of the screen, but also because he firmly believed that Xu Qingyao would not do this for no reason, it was definitely because of something that happened.
Xu Qingyao was very grateful to the director for caring about her, so she could only say sorry over and over again.
She will pay for the liquidated damages, but she really can't continue filming the drama.
The only thing to be thankful for now is that the filming progress of this drama has only just begun, which is already a blessing in misfortune.
Regarding the director's questioning, Xu Qingyao didn't continue talking, but ended the call with him after saying sorry a few more times.
After putting down the phone, she lay down again with Xiaoxian's help.
Xiaoxian opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't speak.
She just sat back on the chair, looked at Xu Qingyao who had closed her eyes, and fell into deep thought.
She was thinking, if Sister Xu hadn't met Jiang Yan at the beginning, then this road must have gone further.
She should be the most beautiful flower, the brightest and unique star.
It's a pity that there is no such thing.
Sunday.
Without holding any press conference, Xu Qingyao just wrote a statement of interest and posted it on the official Weibo of the studio, and then she forwarded it on her Weibo account.
She didn't read the comments, didn't care about the trending searches, she didn't care about these at all.
As for her fans, she knew that her sudden statement would shock and disappoint those who loved her, so she took it as a sorry for them.
She knew she was really selfish.
But... so be it.
Since the time she returned to Star City, she never posted on Weibo again.
Reposting this time with her own account, it was the first time she re-installed Weibo after half a year.
Just to retweet that statement personally.
It's over...it's really over like this, isn't it?
After turning off the phone and putting it aside, Xu Qingyao asked herself this way, and then answered her own question.
Perhaps, it really ended like this, and her acting career came to an end.
Xiaoxian was right beside her, and as soon as she refreshed, the studio's Weibo was posted.
Refresh again, followed by the weibo that Sister Xu forwarded.
Looking at the words written by Sister Xu in the declaration picture, Xiaoxian suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if the sea swallowed her up.
This picture was posted by Sister Xu in their studio group a few minutes ago. Of course, she clicked on it immediately. At that time, her mood was indescribably complicated.
But now, when she saw this picture for the second time, she should have calmed down a bit, but instead she felt even worse.
This is another time she just lifted her lips, but still didn't say anything.
She wanted to ask Xu Qingyao if she regretted it, but since she had already done so, there was nothing else to ask.
"Sister Xu, what are you going to do in the future?"
"Let's see, maybe... we will open a store."
"it is good."
Xiaoxian looked at Xu Qingyao and turned her head away.
So, she also followed her elder sister Xu's line of sight and looked aside.
Today's weather is really not good, it is a cloudy and rainy day with no sun.
It was still raining moderately outside the window, as if shrouded in a cloud of black clouds, always groggy.
The weather looks depressing.
Xu Qingyao simply stopped looking, and slowly turned around.
She hasn't checked the weather forecast yet, so she doesn't know what the weather will be like tomorrow.
I hope...it will be a nice sunny day.
Sunday night was too rough.
Because she thought that she would be able to see Si Yue at dawn, she lay flat on the bed for a long time that night, and finally stayed up all night.
Unable to fall asleep, the pain from the incision became more and more severe. While enduring the pain from the wound, she also endured the pain from longing.
This was another most difficult night in Xu Qingyao's 27 years of life.
Its daybreak.
The curtains didn't seem to be drawn tightly, and there was a small slit in the middle.
An inch of soft light came in through this narrow gap and fell on Xu Qingyao's quilt.
At the same time, Xu Qingyao also opened her eyes suddenly.
The pain in her body screamed for a whole night, and she also endured it for a whole night. By this time, her body seemed to be numb.
She was very tired, but without hesitation, she got out of bed and went to wash up.
Knowing that Sister Xu was going to see Sister Xu today, Xiaoxian came very early.
When Xu Qingyao came out of the bathroom after washing, she just opened the door and came in.
"Sister Xu, how was your rest last night?" Xiaoxian brought over the vegetarian porridge she cooked, and shook it in front of Xu Qingyao when she spoke.
"Well, it's good." Xu Qingyao couldn't help showing a knowing smile when she saw the things in Xiaoxian's hands, but she had to admit that she had told Xiaoxian a white lie about the rest.
But if you don't say that, I'm afraid it will make Xiaoxian worry about herself.
"Sister Xu, let's go after breakfast, this time Lao Zhang will send us there."
"it is good."
Lao Zhang was the driver of Xu Qingyao's studio, and it was Xiao Xian who called to pick them up.
In the past, she and Sister Xu always took Lao Zhang's car to the airport or returned from the airport, but from now on, the number of times she went to take Lao Zhang's car should be very seldom.
Now Xu Qingyao can only drink porridge, and the porridge must be gruel, and rice and other things are absolutely unacceptable.
The place where Jiang Yan stabbed with the dagger happened to be Xu Qingyao's stomach. After the doctor said, there must be sequelae. Spicy taste must not be touched, and other more pungent smells must be avoided.
This also means that sister Xu has many things that she cannot eat, or must eat less.
For this, Xiaoxian felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
Obviously, sister Xu's stomach has always been good, but how did it become like this...
Although some people have died, the pain she left to others is something that she cannot repay with the rest of her life even if she is alive.
Now she is fine, she will be dead forever, and the living will always suffer the most.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xian couldn't help clenching her fists, wishing she could punch hard on the bedside table.
She needs a place to vent, but now in front of Xu Qingyao, she can only keep smiling as much as possible to face him.
Although she hadn't eaten well for many days, Xu Qingyao still felt that she had no appetite and drank the porridge very slowly.
Seeing her slowly eating the porridge, Xiao Xian felt really hurt.
She was so sad, she felt that a hot current was about to burst through her chest.
She was really sad, wishing she could bear such pain instead of Sister Xu.
Sister Xu is such a kind and good person, she has always been herself, and has never done anything to hurt others, but now...why is all this!
"What's the matter, frowning?"
Ever since she took the first sip of porridge just now, Xu Qingyao had seen Xiaoxian's expression like this, but now she had already drank several sips, unexpectedly, Xiaoxian still had this expression and didn't put it away at all.
Having worked with Xiaoxian for so long, Xu Qingyao felt that she knew Xiaoxian better, and of course she understood why Xiaoxian showed such an expression.
So when she asked this question, she smiled lightly, not to put too much pressure on Xiaoxian.
Xiaoxian shook her head violently, "It's nothing."
Xu Qingyao didn't know that, in fact, she showed such a smile that it would put more pressure on Xiaoxian.
Her brave smile made Xiaoxian feel nothing but heartache.
After breakfast, Xiaoxian gently helped Xu Qingyao all the way out of the inpatient department of the hospital, and walked to the parking lot behind.
As soon as she got in the car, Xu Qingyao said "Thank you, I've been waiting for a long time" to Lao Zhang.
Although Lao Zhang replied with a smile and told Xu Qingyao that he had only waited for a short time, in fact he was not feeling well.
At first he didn't know about Xu Qingyao's hospitalization, nor did he know about the closure of the studio, but when Xiaoxian called him last night to tell him about the situation, he was totally taken aback.
Of course, he still didn't know why Xu Qingyao was hospitalized, nor did he know what they were doing in prison.
But because Xiaoxian had already told him not to ask questions, even though he felt sorry for Xu Qingyao, he didn't ask any more questions and just drove quietly.
The three of them on the road didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing.
Of course Xiaoxian also felt heavy, she wanted to try to say something to relieve her emotions, but she didn't know what to say.
After about an hour and a half, Lao Zhang's car arrived at the gate of Xingcheng Prison.
Xiaoxian has already completed the prison visit procedures for Xu Qingyao, and has all the necessary documents.
Today, at this very moment, Sister Xu can finally go in and visit Sister Xu.
"Sister Xu, let's go." Xiaoxian helped Xu Qingyao outside the prison, and could only accompany her here for the time being.
The road ahead can only be walked by her alone.
"...En." Xu Qingyao responded softly, leaving Xiaoxian's support, and walked in slowly under the watchful eyes of the people behind.
Someone led her all the way into the visiting room, and the further she went in, the more violently her heart beat.
She subconsciously bit her lower lip, closed her eyes suddenly, took a deep breath and let it out again.
It's a pity that after doing this, her emotions still haven't been relieved in the slightest. Her hands hanging by her sides are still clenched into fists, and her nails poke her palms painfully.
Emotions affect the body and cause physical pain.
Xu Qingyao felt deeply about this matter, so she tried her best to keep herself calm, because she didn't want to show her serious flaws in front of Si Yue all of a sudden.
She wanted Si Yue to see a intact Xu Qingyao.
"Okay, let's go in."
"Okay, thank you."
The guide took her into a small room and made her sit on the chair against the wall.
Xu Qingyao thanked the other party, and sat there in a panic, looking nervously at the scene through the glass window in front of her.
So far, there is almost nothing in that glass window, not even half a person.
But she knew that Si Yue must be walking towards her.
They were about to meet, and... through the glass window, they were talking on the phone.
At this moment, Xu Qingyao was so nervous that she kept swallowing the saliva she was secreting crazily.
She kept rubbing the trousers on her thighs, and the two trouser legs were already full of wrinkles, but she didn't know it.
At the same time, she also had an urge to cry.
The tip of her nose was sore and her eye sockets were slightly moist, but she was trying to restrain herself.
The next moment, when that figure appeared in front of her eyes, the tears she suppressed desperately could not be controlled and fell like this.
It slid down the cheek, just in time for the girl inside the glass window to see clearly.
And then, Xu Qingyao's movement of tilting her head to quickly dry her tears caught the girl's eyes even more clearly.
Obviously she wanted to pretend on purpose, but it's a pity that she doesn't even know how to pretend.
Xu Qingyao smiled again and faced the girl who was already seated opposite.
She had a gentle smile, but there was guilt and self-blame that couldn't be hidden in her eyes.
The girl by the window smiled brighter than Xu Qingyao.
Although her complexion was pale, her cheeks on both sides were completely sunken, she looked thinner and haggard, but she still smiled like a warm sun.
That's because, after many days, she finally saw Qingyao again.
She saw Xiaoxian during the court session that day, but never saw Qingyao, which made her panic.
She was very afraid that Qingyao would leave her like this. Fortunately, Xiaoxian told her that Qingyao was still in a coma in the hospital, and the doctor said she would wake up in a few days, so don't worry too much. The heart that went to Huangquan together with Qingyao finally relaxed three points.
But the key word at that time was "Qingyao is still in a coma", how many days have passed since Jiang Yan died, why Qingyao hasn't woken up yet.
For this reason, the remaining seven points of anxiety, apprehension and fear are still relentlessly wrapped around her, making her tremble violently uncontrollably.
In the days that followed, she didn't think about eating and drinking, and always thought of someone in her heart.
Missing him became sick, and naturally he lost weight and became what he is now.
After hesitating for two seconds, Xu Qingyao finally picked up the phone, her hands trembling almost imperceptibly.
She clenched her fingertips, tried her best to breathe steadily, and tried her best to talk to the girl calmly.
"Qing Yao."
"Si Yue..."
Before Xu Qingyao could speak, it was the girl who spoke first.
Her voice was very hoarse, and it was hard for Xu Qingyao to imagine how tortured Si Yue had been these days.
But Xu Siyue's smile at the moment was exceptionally bright, neither contending nor angry, just smiling quietly.
It was like the smile of joy that was completely relieved after seeing with his own eyes that the person he was thinking about every day and night was safe and sound.
I don't ask for anything, as long as you are safe.
In this way, I will be satisfied.
There was a bit of tremor in Xu Qingyao's response, and Xu Siyue could of course hear it.
So she smiled even brighter, and told the other party, "Qingyao, I'm fine, the treatment here is actually pretty good."
The comforting words caused Xu Qingyao to shed tears after all.
She knew that Si Yue, who had been watching her all the time, must have seen her tears, and she could no longer hide the past.
"Don't cry, Qingyao, I'm really fine." Xu Siyue subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to wipe away Xu Qingyao's tears, but she didn't raise her hand halfway before she realized that there was a glass window between them, making her completely Unable to touch Xu Qingyao.
She lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly, and when she looked up again, her eyes regained some light, and her eyes were sincere, "Qingyao, you have to be good, and in the next five years... just leave me alone and live your own way." Live as you want."
When Xu Siyue said this, a trace of sadness finally appeared on her originally smiling face.
Five years, this is five years...
These five years, from the age of 27 to the age of 32, should be Qingyao's most precious five years.
"Siyue..." After hearing Xu Siyue's words, Xu Qingyao choked up a little, resisting the trembling and stiffening her body, "Siyue, let me tell you now, I can't leave you alone, the life I want is to have Your life, I will wait for you."
There are some things that she is not going to let Si Yue know, but there is one thing that she has to tell Si Yue seriously.
That is the last paragraph, the four words she specially emphasized.
Xu Qingyao suddenly realized that Si Yue was really different from before, and now she actually let herself give up on her.
What about her in the past, the stubborn and domineering Xu Siyue who refused to let go, where did she go?
But Xu Qingyao just wanted to tell Si Yue that she would definitely wait for her in the past five years.
She will wait, will wait until Si Yue comes home.
"Qingyao..." All the emotions she had pretended to collapse at that moment, Xu Siyue's tears that she had endured for a long time finally couldn't control the burst at that moment, but she still grinned and smiled tearfully at Xu Qingyao said, "OK."
There are no more words, but the word "good" contains thousands of emotions in Xu Siyue's heart.
The two of them didn't continue their chat, and just sat and looked at each other through the glass window for a long time.
Their eyes are sparkling, but their faces and lips are also smiling, and they look at each other beautifully.
Without Siyue's house, it's not home.
But just five years, how long she will wait for Si Yue.
As long as Si Yue can come back to her.
The prison visit stipulated that the maximum time should not exceed half an hour, and for at least half of the time, the two were silent and only used their eyes to convey what they wanted to say to each other.
About half an hour later, a guard came to take Xu Siyue away.
Xu Siyue was pulled to stand up, but her eyes still stayed on Xu Qingyao.
She saw Qingyao standing there, her thin lips opening and closing, talking about something.
Xu Siyue couldn't hear it, but she could see clearly.
Her excitement and joy at that moment were indescribable.
Before completely disappearing from Xu Qingyao's sight, she responded immediately.
It was that "yes" that she said.
But what Xu Qingyao said was: Little Crescent Moon, I'll wait for you.
little crescent.
This title belongs exclusively to Xu Qingyao and Xu Siyue.
After leaving the prison gate, Xu Qingyao saw the two figures still waiting for her outside the gate.
She stopped, the wound was painful, but her heart hurt even more.
A warm sun shone down, reflecting layers of light on her body.
Slowly raising her head, what fell into her eyes was the sun that was not dazzling, but rather warm.
It was a cloudy day yesterday, but today God fulfilled her wish. It was a warm and sunny day.
Her mood improved a lot in an instant, and she knew that she still had to move forward in the future.
The sun shone into her eyes, and there seemed to be light shining in them.
And now the time is almost six o'clock.
When the guard explained the matter to Xu Qingyao, a look of panic appeared on her face.
Standing there for a few seconds at a loss, and gasping for breath, she finally recovered and responded.
She begged the other party to let her in, even if it was just for a look.
As long as I can see Si Yue and see what she looks like now, that's enough...
She is definitely not the kind of person who would do this, because she knows very well that each profession has its own rules, and no matter how powerful the big shots come, they should not be accommodating, and must follow the procedures.
And who is she, she is just the most ordinary person in the big world.
But by this time, she had already given up on so much, and the only thought in her mind was to go in and meet Si Yue.
Si Yue... She clenched her fists and clenched her teeth, waiting for the other party's response.
But the result can be imagined, the time for visiting the prison has passed, and it is impossible for them to allow any family members to go there.
Besides, family members need to bring their documents and go through the procedures to visit the prison. Even if the woman who begged them to go in and have a look at the prisoner came here before the time limit, but she has nothing now, it is also impossible for them to let her go. she goes in.
"Don't make trouble, let's go." The guard waved his hand impatiently, urging Xu Qingyao to leave.
Xu Qingyao, however, persisted, grabbed the other party's hand and begged them to let her in.
What she said was that there was someone very important to her inside, but no one would care whether the prisoner inside was important to her or not. It wasn't a matter of importance at all, understand?
"Hurry up, don't force us to be tough." Each guard will hold a long stick in his hand, just in case.
And if even long sticks can't stop the people who come here to act wildly, they each have a big fork, and this weapon is pressed against the body of those people, so that the other party can't get close to them.
For such a soft and weak woman, they try not to do anything if they can, but if this woman makes them anxious, don't blame them for being rude to her.
Xu Qingyao's tears fell uncontrollably. Even though the guard had already said this, she still didn't stop begging.
"Get out, get out quickly, don't come to hinder us! Get out!" The guard obviously wanted to push Xu Qingyao away with a long stick, but he resisted not doing this to a woman, but raised his voice and volume, forcefully Let Xu Qingyao go.
Xu Qingyao didn't want to be a person who hindered others like this, she never wanted to in this life.
But sometimes, if emotions really reach a certain point, then it is very likely that it is controlling people, rather than people controlling their own emotions.
Just like now, the strong desire to see Xu Siyue is controlling her, making her burst into tears uncontrollably, her cheeks are already covered with tears, and her body is covered with cold sweat.
"Okay! Let's go! You lunatic!" Facing the lunatic who was making trouble at the door, the guard couldn't bear it anymore, and directly poked Xu Qingyao's shoulder with a long stick and pushed hard.
Xu Qingyao didn't stand still and fell heavily to the ground. She was taken aback for a moment before finally waking up as if she had just woken up from a dream.
She sat stiffly on the ground for a few seconds, recovered and looked up at the guard. She saw a look of disdain on the guard's face, as if saying "you deserve it" to her.
The wound didn't know if it was torn, and she couldn't stop panting from the pain.
The pain spread from the stomach and shoulders to all the limbs, and there was no place in her body that was not painless, and it hurt so much that she wished she could die.
Under the contemptuous eyes of the guards, Xu Qingyao endured the pain and stood up again.
She didn't go any closer to the guard, but bowed to him with difficulty, and sincerely apologized to him.
The guard seemed to say something again, probably telling her to go away, but she couldn't hear it clearly.
She stood there, looking at her not-so-broad prison, with sweat dripping from her chin, gradually gathering small puddles at her feet.
It's a pity that she still can't know what it's like inside.
She had no way of knowing how Si Yue lived in it.
There was a wind blowing, brushing her hair that was already sticky due to sweat.
It was clearly supposed to be a warm wind in September, but when it blew on Xu Qingyao's body, it only made her feel a shivering chill.
The whole body was shaking violently like falling into an ice cave.
Time passed mercilessly by every minute and every second.
Xu Qingyao stood at the same spot and looked in for not knowing how long, until the guard couldn't see through and reminded her loudly again, then she slowly lowered her head, and her eyes fell on the puddle of water stains gathered on the ground in front of her.
It turned out that she had accumulated so much sweat unknowingly.
Xu Qingyao smiled self-deprecatingly, with a very shallow smile on the corner of her lips.
Every effort, even if it is just as light as it is now, consumes her greatest strength.
A black mist filled in front of her eyes, Xu Qingyao shook her head, trying to disperse the black mist.
It's a pity that the fog was not dispelled by her, but her own headache got worse.
Si Yue.
Closing her eyes, Xu Qingyao silently recited Xu Siyue's name in her heart.
After a while, she finally turned around and walked out silently by herself.
"girl!"
Suddenly there was a voice behind her, she stopped slowly, and turned around with great effort.
It was as if countless poisonous insects were constantly gnawing on her whole body, but she could only pretend to be safe.
I don't know whether it's because she's disguised too well, or those people don't care about a stranger, and no one can see her disguise.
She subconsciously thought, if Si Yue was standing in front of her at this moment, then she would definitely...
The thought stopped abruptly here, Xu Qingyao didn't let herself continue to think about it.
Memories are beautiful, but what about reality?
She was stopped by the guard.
Although she caused some trouble to the other party due to impulsiveness just now, he still kindly reminded Xu Qingyao that she should not make a trip in vain tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and she is not allowed to visit the prison on weekends.
Xu Qingyao thanked the other party, and glanced across the prison again and again.
Gathering her thoughts, she continued to walk back, the light in her eyes had already lost color, and her steps were vain, making this stubborn body look like it would collapse at any moment.
Star City Prison is surrounded by green trees on both sides, and the surrounding area is sparsely populated.
Xu Qingyao walked slowly along the street, everything in front of her eyes was a blur.
In fact, she really doesn't want to go back, she just wants to stay here with Si Yue, but it's a pity that her thinking is only her thinking after all.
She couldn't get in, and couldn't see Si Yue.
I can't see it today, I can't see it tomorrow, and I can't see it the day after tomorrow.
No one came to tell her what she should do now.
After walking for a while, she suddenly stopped again and squatted down.
Wrapping her arms around her knees, Xu Qingyao buried her head in it.
Ignoring the severe pain in her shoulder, Xu Qingyao's shoulder was constantly trembling, and muffled sobs came from under her deeply buried face.
It seems that I have become accustomed to pain and numbness, and there will not be so much pain in the wound.
But in fact, it is just that the pain in the heart is better than other places, and the pain is added to the pain, while the pain in the body is ignored.
Xu Qingyao is in pain now, and she can't stop crying.
It's just that she didn't dare to vent it out wantonly, and was still deliberately suppressing herself.
Another gust of wind blew the leaves behind her rustling.
A whole row of green trees full of vitality makes the squatting weak figure even more lonely, but it is just the most insignificant speck of dust in the vast world.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Xu Qingyao's cell phone suddenly vibrated a few times in her pocket.
She didn't seem to hear it at all, and didn't respond.
In the following time, her phone vibrated countless times.
But every time, she turned a deaf ear.
It was not until another unknown period of time passed that she finally raised her head.
Sweat and tears are mixed together, and it has long been completely unclear.
Xu Qingyao sniffed, and barely stood up with her palms on the tree trunk.
A sudden colic in her stomach made her breathe stagnant, and a sense of nausea rushed up from her stomach. She subconsciously covered her mouth and bent over to retch in pain.
But in the end she couldn't spit out anything, instead the wound was torn a few times, the pain made her almost out of breath.
Leaning against the tree trunk with difficulty, Xu Qingyao opened her lips slightly, breathing in small mouthfuls.
It looks like a dying fish out of water.
The phone started vibrating again.
This time Xu Qingyao finally felt the slight sound.
The vibrating sound lasted for a long time, and it could only be that someone called her.
The only person she can think of is Xiao Xian.
It should be that Xiaoxian went back to the ward again, and was anxious when she realized that she was not obediently waiting in the ward.
Xu Qingyao knew that she had done something wrong with this matter, maybe she should have informed Xiaoxian before she left.
But Xiaoxian would really agree that she dragged her current body to...the prison to see Xu Siyue?
Xu Qingyao didn't know, although she was willing to believe that communication was effective, she had already come here, and if she had a choice next time, she believed that she would still do so.
After answering Xiaoxian's call, Xu Qingyao was caught off guard by crying and shouting.
Xiaoxian asked loudly where Xu Qingyao had gone, why she sneaked out of the ward without saying a word, and didn't answer her text messages or answer her calls just now.
These words were so hoarse that Xu Qingyao's heart throbbed when he heard them.
She could hear that Xiaoxian was already suppressing her emotions, and after she got on the phone at this moment, all her suppressed emotions couldn't be controlled like a volcanic eruption.
"Xiaoxian, I..." Xu Qingyao was at a loss for words, and her eyelids became heavier.
"Sister Xu, where are you now!" Xiaoxian didn't care what she wanted to say to apologize, the only thing she wanted to know was her current location, "Tell me quickly, I'll find you right now!"
"I... I'm in Xingcheng Prison..." Xu Qingyao felt relieved when he finally said these four words. Lie unconscious on the ground.
"Sister Xu! Sister Xu! Xu Qingyao, answer me! Xu Qingyao!" Xiaoxian's roar continued to sound through the phone receiver, but no matter how Xiaoxian yelled, Xu Qingyao couldn't hear anything in the end.
She was completely plunged into a dark abyss.
Like a wisp of duckweed, wandering with no support, she is left alone from now on.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Xu Qingyao slowly opened her eyes.
This is her waking up in the hospital ward again, and her eyes are still the dazzling white.
With a splitting headache, she wanted to raise her hand to hold her forehead, but found that she had no strength at all.
"Sister Xu, you've finally woken up..." A familiar voice sounded next to her ear, and one could hear a bit of surprise in her tone, but more of it was sadness.
"Well, I..." Xu Qingyao responded with difficulty, but found that her voice was terribly deep and hoarse, as if she had poured countless dust into her throat.
"Don't talk yet, take a good rest, and listen to me later." Knowing that Xu Qingyao must be very uncomfortable now, Xiaoxian stopped her from continuing to speak.
Xu Qingyao just looked at her quietly with half-closed eyes, without words or movements, she was as obedient as a patient should be.
In the following time, Xu Qingyao slowed down for a while, feeling that her head was not as painful and dizzy as when she woke up just now, and then she heard Xiaoxian talk about everything that happened during her coma.
In fact, not much happened, but even if only one of them was mentioned, it was enough to make Xiao Xian collapse.
After hearing Xu Qingyao's silence, Xiaoxian knew that something must have happened to her, so she immediately took a taxi and rushed to her side.
For an hour, she felt that her heart was about to explode, and worrying about Xu Qingyao made her go crazy.
Fortunately, the prison is located in a remote place, and generally no one would go there.
What's more, it was already past the visiting time at that time, so it was even more impossible for someone to go there on purpose.
When she found Xu Qingyao's figure lying under a tree by the side of the road, her heart stopped suddenly at that second, her head buzzed, and she rushed over to check on her sister Xu's condition.
On the way from Xingcheng Prison to No.1 People's Hospital, Xiaoxian tried to call her countless times.
But never once did she wake up.
After sleeping in the hospital for a day and two nights, Xu Qingyao finally woke up.
During this time, Xiaoxian stayed by her unconscious side almost all the time, and did not dare to close her eyes. Every time she dozed off and accidentally fell asleep, she would wake up again within half an hour at most.
After so many repetitions, this incident has already tortured Xiaoxian and made her restless.
Fortunately, Xu Qingyao finally opened her eyes. For Xiaoxian, everything she did before was worthwhile.
In fact, Xiaoxian didn't reveal to Xu Qingyao that she couldn't sleep well because she cared about her sister Xu, but just from her haggard face, Xu Qingyao could guess that it was pretty close.
With tears in her eyes, Xu Qingyao raised her head, suppressed the wetness again, and said in an unusually hoarse voice: "Xiaoxian... I'm sorry..."
Xiaoxian didn't speak, but forced a bleak smile and shook her head lightly.
Now that those things were finished, Xiaoxian wanted Xu Qingyao to rest, but the latter continued to speak.
She said that she couldn't see Xu Siyue when she went to the prison, and she wouldn't see Xu Siyue in the next two days.
She said she was gone forever.
Retirement, or permanent resignation.
It sounds like four simple words, but it is like a sledgehammer, hitting Xiao Xian's heart heavily.
She knew that Xu Qingyao liked this career as an actor very much, and she once said that she would act for the rest of her life, until the day she couldn't act anymore, but now, why did she...
"Sister Xu, in fact, this matter has nothing to do with your acting career..." The last two words are "influence". Unfortunately, before Xiaoxian could continue, Xu Qingyao interrupted her.
Xu Qingyao: "Don't talk about Xiaoxian, I've already thought about it."
"Sister Xu..." Xiaoxian still seemed to feel sorry for Xu Qingyao's decision, but this is the end of the matter, so let it be, "Sister Xu, since you have already made your decision, then do it according to your ideas. "
Xiaoxian is willing to respect Xu Qingyao's decision.
As long as that decision is what she wants to make and what she thinks is right, then go for it.
After thinking about it, Xiaoxian suddenly said again: "But sister Xu, there are still two questions."
Xu Qingyao probably knew what these two questions were, but she still quietly waited for Xiaoxian to speak.
Xiao Xian showed embarrassment, but after hesitating for a while, she still raised those two questions.
The first question: She is currently filming a movie, how to deal with this movie, whether to continue filming after recovering from her injuries, or terminate the contract.
The second question: how to make the matter of retiring from the circle public, whether to hold a press conference.
As for these two questions, Xu Qingyao actually already had the answers in mind.
The holiday when Xu Qingyao was in a coma was taken by Xiaoxian for her because of illness.
The director easily granted her leave, and is still waiting for her with the entire crew to this day.
When Xu Qingyao chatted with the director about the termination of the contract in a video call on Saturday night, the first emotion expressed by the director was not anger, but worry.
Not only because he saw the hospital gown that Xu Qingyao was wearing on the other side of the screen, but also because he firmly believed that Xu Qingyao would not do this for no reason, it was definitely because of something that happened.
Xu Qingyao was very grateful to the director for caring about her, so she could only say sorry over and over again.
She will pay for the liquidated damages, but she really can't continue filming the drama.
The only thing to be thankful for now is that the filming progress of this drama has only just begun, which is already a blessing in misfortune.
Regarding the director's questioning, Xu Qingyao didn't continue talking, but ended the call with him after saying sorry a few more times.
After putting down the phone, she lay down again with Xiaoxian's help.
Xiaoxian opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't speak.
She just sat back on the chair, looked at Xu Qingyao who had closed her eyes, and fell into deep thought.
She was thinking, if Sister Xu hadn't met Jiang Yan at the beginning, then this road must have gone further.
She should be the most beautiful flower, the brightest and unique star.
It's a pity that there is no such thing.
Sunday.
Without holding any press conference, Xu Qingyao just wrote a statement of interest and posted it on the official Weibo of the studio, and then she forwarded it on her Weibo account.
She didn't read the comments, didn't care about the trending searches, she didn't care about these at all.
As for her fans, she knew that her sudden statement would shock and disappoint those who loved her, so she took it as a sorry for them.
She knew she was really selfish.
But... so be it.
Since the time she returned to Star City, she never posted on Weibo again.
Reposting this time with her own account, it was the first time she re-installed Weibo after half a year.
Just to retweet that statement personally.
It's over...it's really over like this, isn't it?
After turning off the phone and putting it aside, Xu Qingyao asked herself this way, and then answered her own question.
Perhaps, it really ended like this, and her acting career came to an end.
Xiaoxian was right beside her, and as soon as she refreshed, the studio's Weibo was posted.
Refresh again, followed by the weibo that Sister Xu forwarded.
Looking at the words written by Sister Xu in the declaration picture, Xiaoxian suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if the sea swallowed her up.
This picture was posted by Sister Xu in their studio group a few minutes ago. Of course, she clicked on it immediately. At that time, her mood was indescribably complicated.
But now, when she saw this picture for the second time, she should have calmed down a bit, but instead she felt even worse.
This is another time she just lifted her lips, but still didn't say anything.
She wanted to ask Xu Qingyao if she regretted it, but since she had already done so, there was nothing else to ask.
"Sister Xu, what are you going to do in the future?"
"Let's see, maybe... we will open a store."
"it is good."
Xiaoxian looked at Xu Qingyao and turned her head away.
So, she also followed her elder sister Xu's line of sight and looked aside.
Today's weather is really not good, it is a cloudy and rainy day with no sun.
It was still raining moderately outside the window, as if shrouded in a cloud of black clouds, always groggy.
The weather looks depressing.
Xu Qingyao simply stopped looking, and slowly turned around.
She hasn't checked the weather forecast yet, so she doesn't know what the weather will be like tomorrow.
I hope...it will be a nice sunny day.
Sunday night was too rough.
Because she thought that she would be able to see Si Yue at dawn, she lay flat on the bed for a long time that night, and finally stayed up all night.
Unable to fall asleep, the pain from the incision became more and more severe. While enduring the pain from the wound, she also endured the pain from longing.
This was another most difficult night in Xu Qingyao's 27 years of life.
Its daybreak.
The curtains didn't seem to be drawn tightly, and there was a small slit in the middle.
An inch of soft light came in through this narrow gap and fell on Xu Qingyao's quilt.
At the same time, Xu Qingyao also opened her eyes suddenly.
The pain in her body screamed for a whole night, and she also endured it for a whole night. By this time, her body seemed to be numb.
She was very tired, but without hesitation, she got out of bed and went to wash up.
Knowing that Sister Xu was going to see Sister Xu today, Xiaoxian came very early.
When Xu Qingyao came out of the bathroom after washing, she just opened the door and came in.
"Sister Xu, how was your rest last night?" Xiaoxian brought over the vegetarian porridge she cooked, and shook it in front of Xu Qingyao when she spoke.
"Well, it's good." Xu Qingyao couldn't help showing a knowing smile when she saw the things in Xiaoxian's hands, but she had to admit that she had told Xiaoxian a white lie about the rest.
But if you don't say that, I'm afraid it will make Xiaoxian worry about herself.
"Sister Xu, let's go after breakfast, this time Lao Zhang will send us there."
"it is good."
Lao Zhang was the driver of Xu Qingyao's studio, and it was Xiao Xian who called to pick them up.
In the past, she and Sister Xu always took Lao Zhang's car to the airport or returned from the airport, but from now on, the number of times she went to take Lao Zhang's car should be very seldom.
Now Xu Qingyao can only drink porridge, and the porridge must be gruel, and rice and other things are absolutely unacceptable.
The place where Jiang Yan stabbed with the dagger happened to be Xu Qingyao's stomach. After the doctor said, there must be sequelae. Spicy taste must not be touched, and other more pungent smells must be avoided.
This also means that sister Xu has many things that she cannot eat, or must eat less.
For this, Xiaoxian felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
Obviously, sister Xu's stomach has always been good, but how did it become like this...
Although some people have died, the pain she left to others is something that she cannot repay with the rest of her life even if she is alive.
Now she is fine, she will be dead forever, and the living will always suffer the most.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xian couldn't help clenching her fists, wishing she could punch hard on the bedside table.
She needs a place to vent, but now in front of Xu Qingyao, she can only keep smiling as much as possible to face him.
Although she hadn't eaten well for many days, Xu Qingyao still felt that she had no appetite and drank the porridge very slowly.
Seeing her slowly eating the porridge, Xiao Xian felt really hurt.
She was so sad, she felt that a hot current was about to burst through her chest.
She was really sad, wishing she could bear such pain instead of Sister Xu.
Sister Xu is such a kind and good person, she has always been herself, and has never done anything to hurt others, but now...why is all this!
"What's the matter, frowning?"
Ever since she took the first sip of porridge just now, Xu Qingyao had seen Xiaoxian's expression like this, but now she had already drank several sips, unexpectedly, Xiaoxian still had this expression and didn't put it away at all.
Having worked with Xiaoxian for so long, Xu Qingyao felt that she knew Xiaoxian better, and of course she understood why Xiaoxian showed such an expression.
So when she asked this question, she smiled lightly, not to put too much pressure on Xiaoxian.
Xiaoxian shook her head violently, "It's nothing."
Xu Qingyao didn't know that, in fact, she showed such a smile that it would put more pressure on Xiaoxian.
Her brave smile made Xiaoxian feel nothing but heartache.
After breakfast, Xiaoxian gently helped Xu Qingyao all the way out of the inpatient department of the hospital, and walked to the parking lot behind.
As soon as she got in the car, Xu Qingyao said "Thank you, I've been waiting for a long time" to Lao Zhang.
Although Lao Zhang replied with a smile and told Xu Qingyao that he had only waited for a short time, in fact he was not feeling well.
At first he didn't know about Xu Qingyao's hospitalization, nor did he know about the closure of the studio, but when Xiaoxian called him last night to tell him about the situation, he was totally taken aback.
Of course, he still didn't know why Xu Qingyao was hospitalized, nor did he know what they were doing in prison.
But because Xiaoxian had already told him not to ask questions, even though he felt sorry for Xu Qingyao, he didn't ask any more questions and just drove quietly.
The three of them on the road didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing.
Of course Xiaoxian also felt heavy, she wanted to try to say something to relieve her emotions, but she didn't know what to say.
After about an hour and a half, Lao Zhang's car arrived at the gate of Xingcheng Prison.
Xiaoxian has already completed the prison visit procedures for Xu Qingyao, and has all the necessary documents.
Today, at this very moment, Sister Xu can finally go in and visit Sister Xu.
"Sister Xu, let's go." Xiaoxian helped Xu Qingyao outside the prison, and could only accompany her here for the time being.
The road ahead can only be walked by her alone.
"...En." Xu Qingyao responded softly, leaving Xiaoxian's support, and walked in slowly under the watchful eyes of the people behind.
Someone led her all the way into the visiting room, and the further she went in, the more violently her heart beat.
She subconsciously bit her lower lip, closed her eyes suddenly, took a deep breath and let it out again.
It's a pity that after doing this, her emotions still haven't been relieved in the slightest. Her hands hanging by her sides are still clenched into fists, and her nails poke her palms painfully.
Emotions affect the body and cause physical pain.
Xu Qingyao felt deeply about this matter, so she tried her best to keep herself calm, because she didn't want to show her serious flaws in front of Si Yue all of a sudden.
She wanted Si Yue to see a intact Xu Qingyao.
"Okay, let's go in."
"Okay, thank you."
The guide took her into a small room and made her sit on the chair against the wall.
Xu Qingyao thanked the other party, and sat there in a panic, looking nervously at the scene through the glass window in front of her.
So far, there is almost nothing in that glass window, not even half a person.
But she knew that Si Yue must be walking towards her.
They were about to meet, and... through the glass window, they were talking on the phone.
At this moment, Xu Qingyao was so nervous that she kept swallowing the saliva she was secreting crazily.
She kept rubbing the trousers on her thighs, and the two trouser legs were already full of wrinkles, but she didn't know it.
At the same time, she also had an urge to cry.
The tip of her nose was sore and her eye sockets were slightly moist, but she was trying to restrain herself.
The next moment, when that figure appeared in front of her eyes, the tears she suppressed desperately could not be controlled and fell like this.
It slid down the cheek, just in time for the girl inside the glass window to see clearly.
And then, Xu Qingyao's movement of tilting her head to quickly dry her tears caught the girl's eyes even more clearly.
Obviously she wanted to pretend on purpose, but it's a pity that she doesn't even know how to pretend.
Xu Qingyao smiled again and faced the girl who was already seated opposite.
She had a gentle smile, but there was guilt and self-blame that couldn't be hidden in her eyes.
The girl by the window smiled brighter than Xu Qingyao.
Although her complexion was pale, her cheeks on both sides were completely sunken, she looked thinner and haggard, but she still smiled like a warm sun.
That's because, after many days, she finally saw Qingyao again.
She saw Xiaoxian during the court session that day, but never saw Qingyao, which made her panic.
She was very afraid that Qingyao would leave her like this. Fortunately, Xiaoxian told her that Qingyao was still in a coma in the hospital, and the doctor said she would wake up in a few days, so don't worry too much. The heart that went to Huangquan together with Qingyao finally relaxed three points.
But the key word at that time was "Qingyao is still in a coma", how many days have passed since Jiang Yan died, why Qingyao hasn't woken up yet.
For this reason, the remaining seven points of anxiety, apprehension and fear are still relentlessly wrapped around her, making her tremble violently uncontrollably.
In the days that followed, she didn't think about eating and drinking, and always thought of someone in her heart.
Missing him became sick, and naturally he lost weight and became what he is now.
After hesitating for two seconds, Xu Qingyao finally picked up the phone, her hands trembling almost imperceptibly.
She clenched her fingertips, tried her best to breathe steadily, and tried her best to talk to the girl calmly.
"Qing Yao."
"Si Yue..."
Before Xu Qingyao could speak, it was the girl who spoke first.
Her voice was very hoarse, and it was hard for Xu Qingyao to imagine how tortured Si Yue had been these days.
But Xu Siyue's smile at the moment was exceptionally bright, neither contending nor angry, just smiling quietly.
It was like the smile of joy that was completely relieved after seeing with his own eyes that the person he was thinking about every day and night was safe and sound.
I don't ask for anything, as long as you are safe.
In this way, I will be satisfied.
There was a bit of tremor in Xu Qingyao's response, and Xu Siyue could of course hear it.
So she smiled even brighter, and told the other party, "Qingyao, I'm fine, the treatment here is actually pretty good."
The comforting words caused Xu Qingyao to shed tears after all.
She knew that Si Yue, who had been watching her all the time, must have seen her tears, and she could no longer hide the past.
"Don't cry, Qingyao, I'm really fine." Xu Siyue subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to wipe away Xu Qingyao's tears, but she didn't raise her hand halfway before she realized that there was a glass window between them, making her completely Unable to touch Xu Qingyao.
She lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly, and when she looked up again, her eyes regained some light, and her eyes were sincere, "Qingyao, you have to be good, and in the next five years... just leave me alone and live your own way." Live as you want."
When Xu Siyue said this, a trace of sadness finally appeared on her originally smiling face.
Five years, this is five years...
These five years, from the age of 27 to the age of 32, should be Qingyao's most precious five years.
"Siyue..." After hearing Xu Siyue's words, Xu Qingyao choked up a little, resisting the trembling and stiffening her body, "Siyue, let me tell you now, I can't leave you alone, the life I want is to have Your life, I will wait for you."
There are some things that she is not going to let Si Yue know, but there is one thing that she has to tell Si Yue seriously.
That is the last paragraph, the four words she specially emphasized.
Xu Qingyao suddenly realized that Si Yue was really different from before, and now she actually let herself give up on her.
What about her in the past, the stubborn and domineering Xu Siyue who refused to let go, where did she go?
But Xu Qingyao just wanted to tell Si Yue that she would definitely wait for her in the past five years.
She will wait, will wait until Si Yue comes home.
"Qingyao..." All the emotions she had pretended to collapse at that moment, Xu Siyue's tears that she had endured for a long time finally couldn't control the burst at that moment, but she still grinned and smiled tearfully at Xu Qingyao said, "OK."
There are no more words, but the word "good" contains thousands of emotions in Xu Siyue's heart.
The two of them didn't continue their chat, and just sat and looked at each other through the glass window for a long time.
Their eyes are sparkling, but their faces and lips are also smiling, and they look at each other beautifully.
Without Siyue's house, it's not home.
But just five years, how long she will wait for Si Yue.
As long as Si Yue can come back to her.
The prison visit stipulated that the maximum time should not exceed half an hour, and for at least half of the time, the two were silent and only used their eyes to convey what they wanted to say to each other.
About half an hour later, a guard came to take Xu Siyue away.
Xu Siyue was pulled to stand up, but her eyes still stayed on Xu Qingyao.
She saw Qingyao standing there, her thin lips opening and closing, talking about something.
Xu Siyue couldn't hear it, but she could see clearly.
Her excitement and joy at that moment were indescribable.
Before completely disappearing from Xu Qingyao's sight, she responded immediately.
It was that "yes" that she said.
But what Xu Qingyao said was: Little Crescent Moon, I'll wait for you.
little crescent.
This title belongs exclusively to Xu Qingyao and Xu Siyue.
After leaving the prison gate, Xu Qingyao saw the two figures still waiting for her outside the gate.
She stopped, the wound was painful, but her heart hurt even more.
A warm sun shone down, reflecting layers of light on her body.
Slowly raising her head, what fell into her eyes was the sun that was not dazzling, but rather warm.
It was a cloudy day yesterday, but today God fulfilled her wish. It was a warm and sunny day.
Her mood improved a lot in an instant, and she knew that she still had to move forward in the future.
The sun shone into her eyes, and there seemed to be light shining in them.
