"Brother Ba," I called out to him, "Sun Xiaohong is not right for you. Don't get upset with that girl."
The myna bird is gone.
I took out my phone; there was a picture of Zhang Qian on the back.
Men cry too, you just can't see it.
Zhang Qian
After packing some clothes and daily necessities, Grandpa and Dongdong are going to stay with Dad. Dad's car is waiting downstairs, but Grandpa doesn't want to go, and neither does Dongdong.
"Zhang Qian'er, let's go together."
"I still have to go to work, Grandpa." When people get old, their temper becomes like a child's; you have to go along with them and coax them.
"real?"
"What do you mean by 'true' and 'false'? Do you think I'm playing a game of wits with you?"
After seeing Grandpa and Dongdong off, the house suddenly felt much quieter.
I sat on the sofa and put a CD on. My grandfather usually doesn't allow me to play CDs at home because he doesn't like listening to them.
Your heartfelt promises, though spoken insincere, have all drifted away with the west wind.
My beloved reliance is like a withered and faded flower, a fool's dream.
Like a spark igniting a prairie fire, your passionate eyes once lit up the most brilliant sky.
Like a bolt from the blue, you callously let me go when I needed you most.
Anqi, you've probably heard the saying, "You can run away from the monk, but you can't hide from the temple."
Anqi, I won't let go. You said, if you live, I will live.
Anqi
I changed my clothes, took one last look at the office, and closed the door.
A prodigy of his generation, vanished from the world forever. Heh.
In the corridor, Zhang Qian's shadow ran up to me and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Hehe.
Inside the elevator, Zhang Qian's shadow stood beside me.
No ambition.
As I walked to the parking lot and opened the car door, Zhang Qian's shadow called my name from behind.
Anqi
This is insane; this woman's body is as addictive as morphine. Maybe I should try that and see if it can help me quit Zhang Qian.
Anqi
Is it time yet? You're already hallucinating?
"Anqi, can you turn around and look at me?"
"Anqi!"
At a glance, I can explain all of this with scientific principles; I can prove that it is an illusion.
"Anqi!"
Zhang Qian
She came up to me, and I felt her body temperature.
“We agreed that we won’t do those dramatic, life-or-death situations like on TV, living like that for decades. That’s so boring,” she said.
“You’re running so fast like a rabbit? Look, I caught you!” she said again.
"Let's get married, just the two of us. Let's go get our marriage certificate right now."
My throat feels blocked, like there's phlegm stuck inside, it's really uncomfortable.
"You don't need to..." Before he could finish speaking, she silenced him with a kiss.
"Still acting? Tell me! Where is that woman?" She slapped me.
"In my house"
"Is she prettier than me?" This woman actually got serious. Heh.
"No, but she has a pretty hot body." Oh well, there's no escaping it, so let's just leave it at that.
"You shameless bastard! I only checked up on you a little and you've already cheated on me? I'll teach you a lesson!" She grabbed my ear and said fiercely.
"Hey, honey, really, nothing happened. I swear to Chairman Mao!" I raised my hand and swore to her.
"That's not what Hu Lu said."
"You can't trust that grandson's words."
I knew it was that bastard who betrayed me, but in the end Zhang Qian found out anyway.
"At most, I kissed them a few times and got a little bit of oil on my plate."
Alright, this girl is getting fiercer and fiercer. She bites without warning. Now it's my turn to use Bloodletting.
A warm breath came from my chest, and she held onto my clothes tightly.
She looked up, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in my ear, "That bastard didn't get anything out of me."
"I trust you."
"I thought you didn't want me anymore." He reached out to wipe away her tears. That's more like it; a woman who's too tough isn't lovable. Sometimes she has to play the vulnerable one.
"I wanted to, but I didn't succeed," I told her honestly.
"Bullshit!" She opened her mouth and took another bite. "You can't escape now. I've put up your picture all over the country and issued a warrant for your arrest."
You're really ruthless.
"hey-hey"
Zhang Qian
Zhang Qian
Anqi is waking up less and less, so I stay with him every day and talk to him.
I'm pregnant again, with Anqi and me. The ultrasound showed it's a girl. Anqi prefers girls; he says boys are too mischievous and hard to manage. My baby will be born in a few months, and Anqi and I have been choosing a name for her these past few days.
He said his daughter's name is An Qian.
It's too cliché; it's not like we're filming "War and Beauty."
I asked him why his name was Anqi. He said his father's surname was An and his mother's surname was Qi, so his name was Anqi. However, he warned me not to give my daughter such a name because the name Anzhang didn't sound good.
Thanks to Hu Lu, An Qi and I shared a hospital room. My biggest wish was to see him every morning when I opened my eyes.
Sometimes I would turn my back to him and cry secretly, thinking he was asleep, but he always found out.
My Anqi, he is my Anqi, my Anqi alone, no one can take him away, no one.
Anqi
In the late stages of lung cancer, the time spent conscious is becoming increasingly shorter.
The hospital staff discovered it during their check-up; they never expected this girl to have so many informants, and she found out.
It's not a big deal, but you're making it sound like a movie. We agreed, we won't act like those dramatic, life-or-death scenes on TV.
She thought I didn't know; she cried often. It's better for a woman to be a little tough; being too weak isn't good either.
That's good, at least there's no seven-year itch, no cuckolding, and I don't have to be petty and wonder if she has other men on the side. Yay! Not bad. Thinking about it, there are still things to be happy about in this world.
"Why are you crying again?" She struggled to raise her hand, probably knowing she wouldn't have another chance.
"That's London fog."
"hehe"
"You rascal, why don't you show some sadness at such a tragic moment? Why do you have to make me so upset?"
She pouted when she spoke, which looked very cute, and I wanted to kiss her.
Let me bite my lips.
"Can't you say something else, something more emotional?"
This girl really thinks we're acting.
"Wife, let me kiss you." That's romantic enough, isn't it?
She leaned down and touched my lips, but unfortunately, I didn't have the strength to bite her anymore.
Her tears fell into my eyes.
"Okay, okay, it's just filming, it's nothing." I patted her on the back.
"Hate!"
Look, I've made the beauty angry again. Brothers, if you're going to marry, don't marry a beautiful woman; she has a bad temper.
"I'm prettier than Maggie Cheung."
"I'm more handsome than Tony Leung."
Her tears fell into my eyes again. If I hadn't met her, she wouldn't be in so much pain now.
Her grandfather was right; Zhang Qian'er was just unlucky.
She's just unlucky to have run into me.
"Xiaoqian"
