stop, don't move

When the sky turned white, Qiao Le leaned against the wall and fell asleep. He slept very unsteadily, and when he woke up, his face was tired. Qiao Le put the drawer back to its original place, rubbed his sore neck, got up and left the room , Go downstairs softly.

The workers who got up early were not here at all, and the downstairs was very quiet, only Aunt Zhang was sitting in the small shop. Seeing Qiao Le, she thought she was delusional.

"Hey, why is Lele back? When I got up this morning, I still wondered why the light was on in your room."

"Hello, Aunt Zhang."

Qiao Le smiled politely, and stretched out her hands to straighten her messy hair.

"What's wrong with your clothes, I'll go into the room and get you a piece of your brother Guangsheng's clothes."

"No need," Qiao Le held Aunt Zhang, and let go of her hand quickly, "I'm going to go to college soon, so I'll come back and have a look, and I'll be leaving right away."

"Lele is really promising. Don't forget to come back and take a look when you make a lot of money in the future!"

Aunt Zhang smiled, and forced a bottle of milk and a bag of bread into Qiao Le's hand.

"Thank you, auntie. You can rent my dad's room. I don't want it anymore. You can help me burn all the other things in it."

"to make!"

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang smiled even more happily, and there were several wrinkles around her eyes.

After bidding farewell to Aunt Zhang, Qiao Le left Tongzilou. He looked back at the place where he had lived for more than ten years, with calm eyes. This was his unilateral farewell.

The phone rang, and Qiao Le looked at the man's name on it and pressed the answer button.

In the early morning when he was replying to the text message, the man called, but Qiao Le didn't answer. He wasn't ready then, but now he is ready.

"Honey I'm at the airport now, are you home yet?"

"On the way, I'll be back in a while."

"Be obedient at home these few days, go to play with Chen Qi when you're bored, and remember to start a video with me at night."

"Okay."

Qiao Le felt sad for the other party's doting tone. He never understood Wen Shiyan, but he always believed in Wen Shiyan's love for him.

Now he couldn't believe it, this man who was always thinking of him in his words was going to another city to marry a woman.

"Lele is not happy?"

"Just woke up, my mind is not sober yet, you work hard, come back earlier, I will wait for you at home."

"it is good."

A conversation full of lies ended with this word.

Today is the date of Wen Shiyan's engagement, and in one month, he will get married.

Qiao Le counted with his fingers, which day he should break up with Wen Shiyan, and when is the best time to leave.

But he couldn't calm down, his rationality suppressed him, and he was unwilling to be mad, how could Wen Shiyan get engaged today, everything was too sudden, and only the picture of Wen Shiyan with that woman was left in his mind. What the engagement ceremony looks like...

Qiao Le took out his mobile phone and called Shen Kaixing.

For Shen Kaixing, it was a surprise that Qiao Le would contact him. When Shen Kaixing answered the phone, the end of his voice was warped, and his eyes were also crooked.

"Shen Kaixing, are you going to the engagement banquet? I'm going too."

Shen Kaixing was quiet for several seconds before he asked with difficulty: "...Why are you going?"

"I'm not going to make trouble, I just want to take a look, even if I pretend to be your girlfriend... I won't be found out."

"...Okay, but you have to stay with me the whole time."

"kindness."

Shen Kaixing has no way to refuse any request from Qiao Le, as long as it is what Qiao Le wants, he will do his best to give it to him.

When Qiao Le took a taxi home, Shen Kaixing was already at the door, just like yesterday.

Shen Kaixing saw the tea stains on Qiao Le's body at a glance, and wanted to ask Qiao Le what happened, but Qiao Le looked haggard, and Shen Kaixing still didn't speak.

Qiao Le brought Shen Kaixing into the house and poured him a glass of water.

"I'll take a shower first, you wait here for a while, you can walk around, it's all his place."

Qiao Le forced a smile, then turned and went to the bathroom.

Shen Kaixing sat in the living room alone, looking at the room, the room was spotless, it seemed that someone would take care of it every day, but the smell of home was very weak, just like his house, it was just an empty shell for people to sleep in.

Looking in the direction of the bathroom, Shen Kaixing put down the water glass and walked up to the second floor, even though he knew it was impolite.

Shen Kaixing roughly visited the bedroom and study room, and then went to another room where the piano was placed.

The bedroom is very cozy, and all the daily necessities belong to the couple, Shen Kaixing dare not use the word "empty shell" anymore, the study is not the place he should enter, Shen Kaixing walked into that empty and big room.

There is a piano and a bookcase inside, and the bookcase is full of various books. Shen Kaixing can think of the harmonious picture of Wen Shiyan leaning against the bookcase while Qiao Le is playing the piano, and maybe the two will look at each other and smile... …

Shen Kaixing walked into the bookcase, pulled out the horizontally placed book from the side, a thin piece of paper floated down from inside, Shen Kaixing stooped to pick it up, on the piece of paper was written a line of strong handwriting——

Me and my little prince.

This is Wen Shiyan's handwriting. It turned out that Wen Shiyan would have been so naive, but Shen Kaixing felt jealous. He clipped the note back and lost the idea of ​​visiting again.

Qiao Le threw the stained clothes into the trash can to destroy the corpse, and when she saw Shen Kaixing going downstairs, she just glanced at it, lowered her head and continued to put away the trash.

"When are we leaving?"

"You can leave now. The engagement banquet is at night. You pretend to be my girlfriend, but you have to follow suit. Wen Shiyan is not allowed to find you."

"I know, you don't have to worry about me ruining your cousin's engagement party."

"I didn't mean that," Shen Kaixing said with complicated eyes, "Qiao Le, why do you torture yourself?"

Qiao Le was silent for a long time, and when Shen Kaixing thought he would not answer, he suddenly raised his head, and he smiled helplessly and humblely.

"Isn't it better to be more determined? Anyway, things have become like this, no matter how painful it is.

The distance between City C and City A is not too far. It was only three o'clock in the afternoon when Shen Kaixing and Qiao Le got off the plane. Qiao Le looked at this city, which was more prosperous than City A, with resistance and yearning in his eyes.

This is the city where Wen Shiyan was born, the beginning of that man, and his belonging, but it has nothing to do with him, Qiao Le.

Shen Kaixing dragged Qiao Le to find a nearby makeup shop, walked around a few times, did not dare to go to a famous shop, and only entered a very simple-looking shop.

Shen Kaixing whispered a few words to the makeup artist, saw the other party smiled and nodded before leaving at ease, and before leaving, he also told Qiao Le not to run around.

Qiao Le didn't think about where Shen Kaixing was going, she smiled at the makeup artist and sat in front of the mirror consciously.

"Please draw me a little differently from what I am now. It's better to look like two people before and after makeup."

"Okay, the little handsome guy has a good foundation and is easy to transform."

The make-up artist was very considerate and didn't ask any further questions. The next time for applying makeup was very quiet, and Shen Kaixing came back very quickly, carrying seven or eight bags of various sizes in his hand.

The famous brand logo on the bag is very conspicuous, there must be all kinds of clothes inside, Qiao Le just finished a layer of makeup on his face, with a faint white on his face, looking at Shen Kaixing calmly with his eyes.

"...Change your clothes first, and then melt,"

Shen Kaixing raised the bag in his hand, Qiao Le turned to the logo on the bag and nodded.
