pretending to be graceful

"Hi, may I ask if you need help?" When Hua Yong was struggling with the suitcase in annoyance, he suddenly heard a beautiful local accent in this foreign country-the anger disappeared, and he almost said "Dear family" He blurted out, exhausting all his strength to barely keep his restraint, straightened up like a dog, pushed up the sunglasses, and looked at the...man in front of him.

The visitor looked younger than him, not more than 20 years old, extremely young, and there was even a youthful agility in his eyebrows and eyes.His eyes are even more beautiful, with faint waves of light, reminding him of the beauty and simplicity of Jiangnan.It is a beauty that has no resemblance to this warm and hearty foreign country.

A beige windbreaker was draped over his forearm, and a solid-color scarf was loosely wrapped around his neck. He was well-dressed and moved forward and backward.It's obviously not big, but it's a lot more stable wrapped in this clothes.When he opened his mouth to ask Hua Yong, he stood three steps away, a distance enough for Hua Yong to know that he was the object of his questioning, and he would not mind him peeping at him.

whose child?How can you rest assured that he is alone in a foreign airport?At this moment, Mr. Hua actually didn't realize that he was just a 20-year-old youth—but he also subconsciously determined that the person in front of him didn't "run away from home" like himself.

Hua Yong scratched his head in embarrassment, and coughed lightly: "Well... I don't know what's wrong with the suitcase, the wheels don't move."

The man glanced at his suitcase, with a smile in his eyes, as if recalling something: "It's easy to handle. I have a friend who has the same suitcase as yours. It took me a long time to get it home. When I found out that the wheels wouldn’t move, I complained that the foreigner was not serious about his work. I got tired of listening to it, so I helped him read the manual, only to find that the wheels had a lock, which was a special design by him.”

Hua Yong also smiled, without any embarrassment for his stupid behavior: "That's a coincidence. I just had a fight with... and kicked the box, and the box fell down. Maybe I didn't notice where I hit it. Haha."

The man straightened the scarf and offered to help: "Do you need me to take a look at it for you? My friend's box was finally fixed by me, and I still remember how to do it."

Hua Yong "tears filled his eyes" for the second time in a short period of time: "Welcome, welcome! Warmly welcome!" Quickly moved away, and revealed the box to the man.

The man nodded slightly, then squatted down and reached out to grope under the box a few times.When pushing the box again, the wheels can already move. "Okay." He stood up and retreated a little so that Hua Yong could confirm.

Huayong didn't need confirmation, so he quickly thanked: "Thank you so much, otherwise I don't know how to get this box back to China. Hmm... May I ask, are you going back to China too?"

The visitor smiled, but did not answer the question: "It would be great if I could help you. It is rare to meet Chinese people traveling alone at foreign airports during non-holidays."

"So it's fate."

There was a little hesitation in the man's nodding, but he was still as calm as before when he looked carefully: "That's right. Then if it's okay, I'll go first."

Hua Yong knew that the other party was unwilling to have too much involvement with this stranger whom he met for the first time, although he was a little sorry for the situation where he would be alone again soon, but he also said goodbye with empathy.

Alas, if he hadn't met so hurriedly at the airport, he really wanted to make friends.

Gu Shuiqing came back to his senses when Hua Yong mentioned the word "Fate".

He has lived in a foreign country for many years, and sometimes when eating out, there will be a few Chinese people sitting at the next table. Zhang Wei always sighs, saying it is fate several times, and then eating happily, without even going to chat with "Fate" interest.And what about himself?Gu Shuiqing doesn't like the word "Fate".

In his distant memory, when he was with his mother, Jiang Fang, he sometimes heard Aunt Zhang mentioning: Tell me, is this fate between you and Gu Changyi, or fate with Gu Changming? ?Then Jiang Fang would answer: This is not fate.

Gu Shuiqing agrees with this sentence.

So why did he take the initiative to talk to the other party just now?Puzzled, Gu Shuiqing had no choice but to stop thinking, took out his mobile phone to confirm the itinerary corresponding to the flight number, went to the rest area, and sent a message to Zhang Wei, telling him that he had arrived at the airport.After hesitating for a while, he sent another one to Gu Shuisi: "I'm at the airport now, and I should be home before ten o'clock in the evening."

There is no news from Zhang Wei, but Gu Shuisi replied in seconds: "Okay. But I will be in the hospital."

Gu Shui lightly looked at the calm news, and the gentleness faded a little, the solemnity and maturity between his brows didn't even belong to his age: "Xiaosi...you have to think clearly about what you are doing. I told you, you You can choose to do anything, but you have to be prepared in advance to bear all the consequences. I will not interfere with you, and no one in the family can influence your decisions, so don't make us worry."

It took a while for Gu Shuisi's message to come back: "Brother, now is the moment in my life when I know what I'm doing the most."

He was frowning when the news from over there came again: "I just thought, brother, we are twins, and you were born a few minutes earlier than me, why are you already a mature adult, and I, even myself For many years, I didn’t know what I did.”

Gu Shuiqing quit the message, turned off the screen, not knowing what to reply.

Whoever chooses his own life, he does not influence others, nor does he want others to influence him.But some people, like him, grow up like a human being by themselves.Some people grow up in despair, and end up hurting others and themselves.

He didn't want his sister to be the latter.But he didn't know what to do either.

The screen lights up.It was Zhang Wei's reply: "Will the plane be late?"

"It doesn't look like it should. International routes should be more reliable."

Zhang Wei: "Contact me when you arrive and see what I can do to help."

Gu Shui responded lightly and put away the phone.And with this movement, his inexplicable irritability was also suppressed, and he looked like that gentle and courteous oriental man again, young but not childish.

Time passed by in a hurry, after Gu Shui flipped through half of the book, he heard the announcement about his own flight, found the counter and prepared to check in.Just stood still, but felt a tap on the shoulder, and heard a pleasantly surprised "Hi!"

Turning around, it was indeed the man who had just helped.He laughed twice, his eyes sparkling: "What a coincidence, are you also on this flight?"

Gu Shuiqing could only smile and nod.The person in front of him may be slightly older than himself, how can he be so familiar at this age?Gu Shuiqing treats everyone like a spring breeze, but he knows that he is not a warm person.He understands people like this, but it's true that he's not very good at dealing with them.

Hua Yong saw that he was not enthusiastic about chatting, so he stood behind him in a well-behaved manner after saying hello.

"Do you need to check in your luggage?" The staff at the counter is a Chinese girl. She was obviously a little excited when she met a Chinese, and her voice sounded a little softer—but maybe it was because the man in front of her was really peaceful. .Gu Shui shook his head lightly, took the boarding pass, turned and left.

Hua Yong looked thoughtfully at his small suitcase which could be boarded directly.With such a small amount of luggage, it is not like traveling, nor like returning to China after studying abroad, but more like going back temporarily—is it immigrating abroad?

"Sir, please show me your passport."

Hua Yong handed the things to the counter lady, his eyes still unconsciously chasing the receding figure.

"Sir, do you want to choose..."

"Just sit next to that gentleman."

"Well... this..." The girl hesitated, not sure what to do.

Hua Yong knew her doubts well, but he didn't tell the truth: "Oh, we are friends." At this moment, Gu Shuiqing just turned around, Hua Yong waved at him, Gu Shuiqing was taken aback, and also waved at him shook hands.

The lady at the counter had no doubts, chose a seat for Hua Yong neatly, and went through the check-in formalities: "Here is your boarding pass. Please pay attention to the news there after you arrive at the Capital Airport for luggage check-in."

Hua Yong took the good things thoughtfully and left.

He is a person who never wrongs himself, and has always booked first-class tickets.This time I was planning to downgrade, but I didn't expect that the other party was also booked in first class... Hua Yong recalled the other party's attire, thinking about his identity.If the identities are similar, it may be more convenient to make friends.The smile on his face was more obvious.

Mr. Hua, he loves making friends the most in his life. He is full of friends from all over the world. If there is no opportunity, he must create.

"Oh, what a coincidence!"

When meeting the same person for the third time in a day, Gu Shuiqing also had to be dumbfounded.As fellow Chinese, such a coincidence, it would be impolite not to respond properly: "It's really a coincidence."

Hua Yong sat down next to him carefreely, and chatted enthusiastically but beyond bounds: "Can I ask your age? Are you younger than me?"

Gu Shui said lightly: "Eighteen."

"Hahaha, I'm really old, I'm twenty, and my birthday just passed last week! Where are you from? Beijing? It's even better to speak Mandarin!"

"It's the people of the imperial capital. They were born there. They were brought to the south of the Yangtze River by my mother when they were very young, but they did live in Beijing for a few years."

"The imperial capital plus Jiangnan water town, no wonder you have such a unique temperament. I have been to Hangzhou a few times, and it is really different from Beijing..."

However, Gu Shuiqing just nodded in agreement, and did not express any further expression to the word "Hangzhou" proposed by Hua Yong.

Hua Yong couldn't feel the silence, but he also couldn't receive more responses, so he couldn't help but feel helpless.When Gu Shuiqing took out a large book from his bag, he stopped talking and sat down to wait for the flight.

It was neither a peak tourist season nor a weekend holiday. There were few people on the plane, and the first-class cabin was even more empty, with few people sitting.Hua Yong couldn't help being a little bored, so he had to drag out a few interesting movies to pass the time.

Ten hours was not a long time, Gu Shuiqing remained silent throughout the whole process, as if he didn't exist.At [-]:[-] p.m. Beijing time, a quarter of an hour earlier than expected, the plane landed at the Capital Airport.

Hua Yong and Gu Shuiqing said their last simple farewell on the plane, Gu Shuiqing went straight to the parking lot, and Hua Yong had to wait for the luggage, so it was impossible to ask more questions.

Hua Yong can only sigh, although the encounter between the two of them this day can be regarded as fate, but there may be no fate to be friends, and the other party is obviously not interested.Oh, it's hard.

Gu Shuiqing did not refuse his father to send someone to pick him up. After getting in the car, he refused the driver to take him home directly, but asked to go to the hospital.The driver nodded.

Gu Shuiqing took a break, first explained to Gu Shuiqing that he would be there soon, and then reported Zhang Wei's safety: "Land down."

Zhang Wei sent six points, and the next one had text: "In a bad mood?"

Gu Shuiqing didn't need to ask "how do you know", because he could feel that his simple two words were a bit too rigid. "It's not a bad mood, it's just that something happened on the road." Then he briefly described what happened at the airport to Zhang Wei.

"..."

"What do you say?"

"You offered to talk to a stranger?"

"Gu Shuiqing, have you changed your sex?"

Gu Shui lightly looked at the increasingly bustling scenery outside the window, and frowned when he thought of his sister who was not alive in the photo.The calmness he was proud of could not be mobilized at the moment.

He had to admit: "Probably because of the timidity of being close to the hometown, plus..."

In addition to the gloom, he got a glimpse of color.
