No divorce! Mr. Lu knelt down and coaxed him every night.

Qiao Shiyan didn't know that Meng Yan left City B.

Almost every day, he would go to the Italian restaurant and sit for two hours, watching the evening sunset and watching the twilight gradually cover the earth until it swallowed up the last trace of light.

He waits for her there every day.

But Meng Yan has already left the country, how could he wait for someone?

As time passed, he thought that she regretted her tenderness that night...she didn't want to see him or talk to him about the future, she was avoiding him.

A month passed, he thought, didn't she even miss Qiao Huan?

He has been to Shen's house more than once.

However, for Qiao Shiyan now, the lintel of the Shen family is so high. He can't see Mr. Shen, nor can he see Shen Zishan and his wife...

……

It was late summer that year.

Qiao Shiyan's liver couldn't bear it any longer, so Qiao Xun took him to the hospital for surgery and let him rest.

Zhang Ma is back!

She took care of Qiao Shiyan and his daughter as always. Qiao Shiyan would occasionally ask her about Meng Yan's whereabouts, but Zhang Ma never knew.

VIP ward of Lu Hospital.

On the third day after Qiao Shiyan's surgery, Zhang's mother made him old hen soup and came to visit with little Qiao Huan in her arms.

Xiao Qiao Huan is wearing a floral skirt.

She sat on the edge of the hospital bed and played with herself obediently, like a stuffed doll.

Zhang Ma was waiting on Qiao Shiyan, while nagging that he didn't cherish her: "If my aunt hadn't insisted, I think you still don't take good care of your body, and you have been playing cruel tricks on women from the day before to the night. Now the retribution is coming! "

Qiao Shiyan said quietly: "What I injured was my liver, not my kidneys!"

Zhang Ma snorted softly: "If you are not honest, your kidneys will be broken."

Qiao Shiyan fell silent.

He often has trouble with Zhang Ma——

While they were talking, the ward door was pushed open and Secretary Jin came in.

She held a document bag in her hand.

His expression was complicated.

Qiao Shiyan thought it was important business and said quietly, "What happened?"

Secretary Jin hesitated for a moment before handing him the document bag in his hand——

Qiao Shiyan took it and opened it.

Inside, there was a check for 6000 million yuan, signed by Meng Yan.

Secretary Jin spoke softly: "The express delivery was sent two months ago. Meng Yan chose to delay delivery... I think she is no longer in city B."

Qiao Shiyan looked at the check over and over.

She left a note, only a few words——

[Raise Qiao Huan well. 】

She didn't mention a word about their relationship or future, and sometimes not mentioning it was a silent rejection.

Qiao Shiyan was in a daze for a long time and asked softly: "Where did she go?"

Secretary Jin shook his head.

Qiao Shiyan didn't ask any more questions. He drank the rest of the chicken soup silently. When he looked up, he saw Qiao Huan's wide-open, dark eyes.

He touched her head: "Mom sent money to Xiao Qiao Huan and asked dad to buy delicious food for Qiao Huan."

Children are the most sensitive at heart, but they are also easy to coax.

Xiao Qiao Huan became happy immediately.

On the side, Zhang's mother secretly wiped her tears. She didn't know why her wife left.

But she thought, Madam must have a reason.

……

at dusk.

Qiao Shiyan left the hospital and took a taxi to the restaurant.

His body was still wrapped in white gauze, and the back of his hands was covered with needle holes. He even smelled of medicine, but he still sat quietly by the window in the restaurant——

He waited quietly,

Waiting for someone who won't show up.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Qiao Xun called and asked where he was.

Qiao Shiyan's Adam's apple twitched and he whispered, "Just take a walk! I'll be back in a while."

Qiao Xun hesitated to speak.

Qiao Shiyan hung up the phone and did not return to the hospital immediately. He wanted to take a walk on the street.

The street was also flashing with colorful neon lights, and the businesses on both sides were still the same as in the past. The female singer sang in a hoarse and sad voice.

However, in this city, his Xiaoyan is no longer there, and his Jinfan is no longer there.

lively streets,

Qiao Shiyan stood there alone, looking a little confused.

Then, he saw Shen Cishu.

In a high-end restaurant, Shen Cishu was on a blind date. The person he went on a blind date with was a highly educated woman. Her appearance was not very stunning, but she had a good face and an even better temperament.

The parents on both sides also talked happily.

Qiao Shiyan stood quietly outside. When he looked at Shen Cishu, he was full of energy, but his eyes were filled with stagnant water. He seemed to be very different from before.

Qiao Shiyan kept waiting until the Shen family came out.

When Shen Zishan and his wife saw him, they were surprised but didn't say anything. Qiao Shiyan looked at Shen Cishu and said softly: "I want to ask you a few words."

Shen Cishu nodded,

He said to his parents: "Wait for me in the car!"

When there was no one else around, Qiao Shiyan and Shen Cishu stood under the neon lights in the sky. Shen Cishu looked at the bandages on Qiao Shiyan's body and said softly: "I heard you just had an operation."

Qiao Shiyan even skipped the small talk.

He asked pointedly: "Where did she go? When will she come back?"

Shen Cishu was silent for a long time...

By chance, the woman on a blind date passed by in her car. The girl lowered the window and said goodbye to Shen Cishu. Shen Cishu smiled politely at her and told her to drive safely.

But when he smiled, his eyes were filled with ice.

As the car drove away, Shen Cishu looked at the back of the car and muttered to himself, saying a meaningless sentence: "She is very good! She should get married soon!"

Qiao Shiyan didn't know why.

Shen Cishu came back to his senses and smiled lightly: "Meng Yan should be back soon!"

He apologized for leaving.

When he got into the Shen family's black RV, he thought that he would get married early next year, and Meng Yan would be back by then...

But Qiao Shiyan didn't know this.

He didn't know Meng Yan's difficulties, that she had no choice but to leave City B, leave the gallery she had worked so hard for, and leave her only relative, Meng Yanhui.

He is still waiting for her.

Shortly after being discharged from the hospital, it was Meng Yan's birthday.

That day, Qiao Shiyan was sitting alone in that restaurant again, wearing the same clothes and still holding a 5000 million check in his wallet. He knew she wouldn't come, but he thought that if she came back, he wouldn't be at a loss and unprepared.

That day, he ordered Meng Yan's favorite dessert.

He sat in his usual seat and waited for her.

He waited until midnight was approaching, and her birthday was almost over.

The manager couldn't bear it anymore and walked over and whispered: "Mr. Qiao, it's time for us to close."

Under the lamp, Qiao Shiyan's handsome face was in a trance.

He looked at the untouched plate of desserts and asked in a low voice: "There are still five minutes until 12 o'clock. Wait another five minutes... okay?"
