Chapter 82: If there really is another date
Facing Cheng Xin Ge’s question, Shen Xing did not evade it, but said directly, “Yes, because of him. In my life, he is both my brother, friend, and lover. He even took on the role of a father to some extent. In the years that he was there, he was almost all of me.”
Cheng Xin Ge was silent. Shen Xing’s words were simple, but the feelings contained in these simple words were already deep to the soul! Therefore, Cheng Xin Ge had no way to say anything.
This is an affection that has been built up over a long period of time. How many such years are there in life?
Or, Shen Xing was just wrong in that she was unwilling to give herself, or Cheng Xin, another chance to build up such a relationship.
“Su Chengxin, I came back to wait for you. I always feel that I owe you an explanation. I selfishly used you to make myself happy for a day when I was desperate. In fact, I wanted to give myself a choice. Su Chengxin, can I say sorry to you?” Shen Xing’s voice came faintly.
“Don’t say sorry to me. You’re leaving, aren’t you? You have to take back your own feelings. If you can’t, then leave it to time.” Chengxin said in a low voice.
“In my closet, there is a diary. Please take it. Burn the rest.” Shen Xing suddenly said.
I was a little confused, so I asked, “Why do you want me to keep it?”
“That diary records some of my things, it’s a trace of my existence in this world. I didn’t want to give it to Su Chengxin because I wanted him to forget me quickly. I… I wanted him to be happy. If one day Su Chengxin can let go of me, you can give it to him, or tell him the story in the diary.” Shen Xing said to me.
Chengxin was standing next to him, pinching his eyebrows, unable to refute.
“Well, this meeting is just to give Su Chengxin an explanation. For the rest, let Master Liu find a way to let me go.” Shen Xing smiled and said calmly. That smile was like the smile she had when she and Chengxin had met at the door that day.
“I’m the one who found someone to help you cross over.” I said to Shen Xing.
“It doesn’t matter who it is. I have used my life to protect the perfection of this relationship. I am tired and it is time to let go of this life. So, it doesn’t matter who it is. I just know that I should go.” Shen Xing replied to me.
“No, don’t go yet.” Chengxin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.
I looked at Chengxin Ge with concern. Did he still want to keep Shen Xing? Shen Xing’s expression also became a little surprised and sad.
Cheng Xin Ge didn’t care about these things, but just walked a few steps to the bed and said, “Give me a hug. Give me a hug. My heart won’t hurt so much. Maybe this hug will make the love you’ve been guarding for so long no longer perfect, but I’m determined to have it. You don’t owe me an explanation, you don’t owe me an apology, you owe me a hug.”
Hearing Chengxin say this, I was relieved. I looked at Shen Xing with concern. She was so persistent about her relationship. Would she give Chengxin a hug?
But Shen Xing’s expression was like she was crying. Unfortunately, she was a spirit and couldn’t shed tears. She stood up, walked over to Cheng Xin Ge’s side, hugged him, and rested her head on his chest.
Unfortunately, this was a hug between two spirits, and Cheng Xin could not feel Shen Xing’s body, and Shen Xing could not feel Cheng Xin’s body temperature.
But this moment was also the moment when a miracle occurred. Brother Chengxin stretched out his arms as if he really felt something, perfectly embracing Shen Xing. Under my divine eye, they were perfectly embracing each other.
“This is how you looked in my memory,” said Cheng Xin in a low voice.
“I’m sorry. Forgive me for being so stubborn and wanting to protect a relationship, and then hurting you. If people really have reincarnation, I hope that I can meet you again in the next life. At that time, I won’t miss you again. Let’s just consider that date as an unfinished date, and today’s date is my promise to you.” Shen Xing’s voice rang in Cheng Xin’s arms.
“Mmm.” Cheng Xin Ge said with tears in his eyes, but he pretended to be relaxed and said, “It’s great that the daughter-in-law of the next life has already been decided in this life.”
I can’t describe the sadness of this moment. The embrace of the two worlds is beautiful, but before the word beautiful, it is defined as sad. Something that is beautiful is more saddening than pure sadness.
Many years later, I happened to watch a TV drama with my husband. When the theme song of the drama started playing, my husband suddenly burst into tears. I always think of this embrace between the living and the dead.
“Forgive me for not knowing how to cherish you that day, only knowing that I was being selfish and causing trouble. I only hope that you can listen to my heart in the void at this moment… If there is really an unfulfilled date in the future, and if there is really such deep affection again, I hope that heaven will be my witness…”
No matter what kind of sadness there is in life, it will always be extinguished with time. You can’t forget, but time can forget. Because you will die and reincarnate, but time will always be there. Your sadness is not worth mentioning in time, because time can eventually forget you too…
I don’t want to deliberately comfort Brother Chengxin. If he can still vent his emotions, it means that he still has a longing for this world, and that’s why he’s sad.
When a person is completely calm in the face of emotions, it means that he has either attained enlightenment or he is hopeless.
So, I let Chengxin drink himself silly every day for the past two days, and I even drank with him. But I would never say a word of comfort.
We are from the same school, and we are also friends, brothers, and good brothers do not mean that they will always persuade you to be rational, but that they can accompany you in your sorrow.
On the afternoon of the third day, I rubbed my head, which still hurt after I sobered up, took a look at my brother, who was still sleeping from the hangover, and went to the bathroom, where I washed my face with cold water.
With the cold water stimulating my face, I felt much better. Looking at my face in the mirror, which was still dripping, I wondered if I would be able to drive to the airport to pick up this kid, Hui Gen, in this state.
In the blink of an eye, many years have passed. In these years, Huigen has followed this master, that master, and studied, which is very busy! Every time we meet, we are in a hurry and can’t stay for long. More importantly, when I calculate it, I haven’t seen this kid for a whole year and a half.
It has been five years since Master and Hui’s father left, and now it has been five years. Hui’s father is 18 years old now.
Because this kid had a relatively pure life when he was young, he was relatively slow to mature. I always think of the way this kid used to jump on me when he was 13 years old, and I can’t help but laugh when I think about it.
In addition, Master Liu also has a lot of feelings for Shen Xing. In order to help Shen Xing cross over, he deliberately postponed his daughter’s exorcism for a few days. He also told me that his daughter also shed tears for Shen Xing’s death.
Yes, people are not made of stone, so who can be heartless?
Even people living in purgatory have feelings and are qualified to grieve, as long as they are still human!
Hurry up and pick up Huigen. In my heart, I can’t wait for Shen Xing to be reborn tonight. This is the best thing for Shen Xing. Having a bad karma is not a good thing.
Maybe it was the cold water that sobered me up, or maybe it was the breeze along the way. After a night of hangover, I was able to drive to the airport smoothly. Should I thank Qinhuai for lending me a car with such good performance?
I bought a magazine at the airport and sat down in a random place, waiting for Huigen.
I guessed that the time was almost up, so I kept looking around the station, but no matter how I looked, I couldn’t see Hui Gen. Could it be that Hui Gen? I frowned slightly. This time, I couldn’t get in touch with the elusive Jueyuan, so I thought of contacting Hui Gen. In fact, I didn’t want to delay his studies, but was this kid standing me up?
Just as I was guessing, suddenly there was a flash in front of my eyes. Before I could react, a figure pounced on me, and then a tight bear hug, I almost choked to death.
When that figure let go of me, I froze. Hui Gen’er?
