You were the one who wanted to separate

After writing the update, it was almost dinner time, so Xiu Qi hurriedly tidied up and rushed out.Jiang Yuan has been staying abroad for these years and rarely returns to China. Although he will contact each other through various communication methods from time to time to understand each other's current situation, it is true that they have not seen each other for a long time.What's more, the purpose of Jiang Yuan's return to the country this time... Xiu Qi, who watched them walk together, should go to accompany him no matter what.

In this kind of weather, those who can trek across mountains and rivers to the city center for an appointment can definitely be regarded as best friends.

The place to eat was chosen by Jiang Yuan, a well-known barbecue restaurant in the city center.When Xiu Qi arrived, Jiang Yuan was the only one in the private room. He was leaning on the back of the chair with his head lowered and playing with his mobile phone carelessly, showing his fair and beautiful neck.Xiu Qi stood at the door and paused for two seconds, then said softly, "Jiang Yuan."

Jiang Yuan paused for a moment, then slowly turned his head, the corners of his mouth curled up: "Yo, long time no see, Mr. Xiu Qi."

"Big ghost!" Xiu Qi leaned on the door frame and slowly raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a warm voice, "You still know how to come back."

"If you don't come back to take a look, I'm afraid you won't even have any friends." Jiang Yuan said with a smile, "Sure enough, men save more time than women when they go out. You You told me that she was out an hour ago. The gates of the community units haven’t even come out yet.” Having said that, he swept his eyes over Xiu Qi, “However, even if you’re broken in love again, you don’t have to be so smug.”

"Unkempt?" Xiu Qi glanced at his T-shirt and shorts, then at Jiang Yuan, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looked like an elite, raised his eyebrows, "Okay, I'm like this, it's our standard equipment for homeboys. " Xiu Qi pulled away the chair next to Jiang Yuan and sat down, "But the meal is the meal, don't talk about my broken love, I have selectively forgotten this dark history."

Jiang Yuan couldn't help laughing, and it took a long time before he stopped.He poured a glass of water for Xiu Qi and himself, drank it slowly, and said after a long time: "He is getting married tomorrow, you can go with me."

Xiu Qi's hand to grab the water glass paused, hesitantly asked again: "Why...is he going to get married all of a sudden?"

Jiang Yuan lowered his eyes, through the lens, he seemed to be able to see something flickering in his eyes just now, the corners of his mouth were still curled up, and he calmly replied: "If the mother is dying, I'm lying on the hospital bed crying and begging him to take care of me. I let it go and live a good life. He probably really can't hold on anymore. That's okay, he was forced to bend by me in the early years, but in fact he still likes girls more. It's just that the two of us are exhausted. Too many years have formed a deadlock, no one can take a step back, and no one wants to let go. Now that he has taken this step, it can be regarded as a relief for each other."

"Who is the bride?"

"Bride?" Jiang Yuan smiled, "Do you remember when a girl in their class confessed to him in the third year of high school? I have been with Zhou Sheng for many years, and I am also extremely stubborn. But now I finally got my wish."

"Jiang Yuan." Xiu Qi called his name softly, "Are you sad now?"

Jiang Yuan stared at the water glass in his hand for a while, then slowly raised his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then he shook his head: "I may not be sad for a long time, the two of us spent too many years In the end, I couldn't figure out whether he continued to wait because he still loved him or because he said he would wait, and I didn't even know if I didn't love him a long time ago."

"Then do you regret it?"

"What do you regret?" The smile on Jiang Yuan's lips carried a slight self-mockery, "Regret that you shouldn't like him that day or shouldn't be too blatant? Or regret why you left so resolutely at the beginning? Otherwise, you should ask Zhou Sheng , do you regret not going with me back then?" Jiang Yuan's eyes fell on Xiu Qi's face, and he said softly, "Even if we knew the end of some things, we would not change our decisions that day. For example, you, you After you broke up with Mu Yu, did you regret it?"

Xiu Qi was stunned for a second, then shook his head, and smiled slightly: "What's the use of not regretting later?" After a pause, he continued, "Actually, I met Mu Yu a few days ago. .”

Jiang Yuan raised his head and looked into Xiu Qi's eyes: "And then?"

"Then?" Xiu Qi raised his eyebrows, "What do you want and then? Well, he's still alive, and he seems to be alive."

"Is he single now?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"I don't know." Xiu Qi replied, "It's none of my business, so I didn't ask."

Jiang Yuan curled his lips, thought for a while and said: "Actually, if you are single, you can think about it. Even if you are gay, you can't just live alone for the rest of your life, right? If you always want to find a partner, you might as well find an acquaintance. Those who know the basics are not afraid of being tricked again.”

Xiu Qi was a little shocked by Jiang Yuan's logic, and asked after a long time, "Are you persuading me to reconcile with Xiu Qi?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head: "I just want to say, at this age, don't do things that you regret."

Xiu Qi slightly lowered his eyes and did not speak, Jiang Yuan smiled and did not continue this topic.The two chatted casually for a while before You You slowly entered the private room.

The three of them are old friends who have known each other for many years, and even though they haven't seen each other for a long time, they are still very familiar with each other.The three of them nestled in the private room, chatting and eating, and it was extraordinarily leisurely.They talked about each other's current situation, recent news about old classmates and old friends, and future plans. In the end, the topic returned to Jiang Yuan. You You put down his chopsticks and asked seriously: "Otherwise, I will ask for leave tomorrow to accompany you. Bar?"

Jiang Yuan smiled: "It's enough to have Xiuqi, I brought so many people to my ex's wedding, no matter how you look at it, it's suspected of snatching the bride?"

You You sighed softly: "Actually, I don't understand why you insist on going. It's more or less uncomfortable for you, Zhou Sheng or the bride, right?"

"In any case, he is the only person I have loved in so many years." Jiang Yuan said lightly, "I am a person who pays special attention to the sense of ritual, so I went to his wedding in person and watched him marry someone else. Put an end to the two of us with your own hands."

You You thought for a while, and said: "Actually, I can pretend to be your girlfriend."

Jiang Yuan hastily waved his hand: "That Zhou Sheng knows me too well, he knows that I would rather become a monk than be with you, and when I am exposed, I will lose someone in front of my ex."

You You raised his eyebrows slowly: "What did you say?"

"I said my elder sister You is as beautiful as a flower, and I really don't deserve it." Jiang Yuan started laughing as he spoke.

You You stretched out his hand and slapped Jiang Yuan, then glanced at Xiu Qi next to him: "I don't know what's wrong with so many gays around me, I deserve to be single all the time."

"Sister You, can you not blame us for being single?" Xiu Qi said, "Jiang Yuan may not be aware that Jiang Yuan is not in China all year round. If you want to get out of the single, just nod your head."

"I have a bad cervical spine, so I can't nod my head." You You said lightly, leaning on the back of the chair.On the side, Xiu Qi and Jiang Yuan were stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

You You knocked on the heads of the two of them, and raised his glass: "This glass of wine is toast to the three of us. I hope that no matter whether you are single or not, you can live according to your own wishes."

Jiang Yuan gently clinked glasses with You You, and said in a low voice, "I hope we won't let ourselves regret it again."

Xiu Qi couldn't help but looked up at him, and then looked away: "I hope we will always be healthy."

The three wine glasses made a crisp sound when they collided together, and the cold beer slowly slid down the throat, with a little bit of bitterness.

It was completely dark after dinner, Xiu Qi and Jiang Yuan sent You You home before taking a taxi back to the supermarket.The air at night was quite comfortable, Xiu Qi moved two rocking chairs to the door of the store, chatting with Jiang Yuan while blowing the evening breeze.The empty beer cans were scattered all over the ground, Xiu Qi squatted unsteadily on the ground, picked them up one by one and threw them into the bag.

Jiang Yuan looked not far away with divergent eyes, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "Actually, I regret it."

Xiu Qi's movements stopped, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan. Because he had no energy after drinking, he sat down on the ground. Jiang Yuan looked at him with a smile, and didn't stretch out his hand to pull him. He just said to himself: " Zhou Sheng called me last month, and he asked me, 'Jiang Yuan, it's been eight years, you still don't plan to turn back?' Before I could answer, he said to me, 'Then I can't wait any longer. You.' I felt like my brain went blank at that moment, but I was still able to calmly say to him, 'Well, remember to invite me when you get married.'”

Jiang Yuan raised his hand and rubbed his face, and continued: "Before Zhou Sheng hung up the phone, he told me, 'Actually, I know you may not love me anymore, I just want to try again, maybe one day I will I won. Later I found out that I was wrong. There is never a win or a loss in love. If I had known it would end like this, I would have gone with you regardless of everything, but now, it’s too late to say anything.” Jiang Yuan raised his head and closed his eyes slightly, but something transparent still flowed out of his eyes. Xiu Qi suddenly remembered that this person didn't shed a single tear when he left without looking back. He opened his mouth Want to say something, but don't know where to start.

Jiang Yuan wiped his face carelessly, opened his eyes and said, "At that moment, I regretted it. I don't know why we have tortured each other for so many years, and I don't know why we finally came to this ending. I even I don’t know if I still love him or not, but when I heard him choking on the phone, at that moment, I suddenly wanted to go back to him and reach out to hug him. But it was too late.”

Xiu Qi sat on the ground and watched Jiang Yuan get up slowly, and staggered towards the inside, and heard him say: "So Xiu Qi, if one day Mu Yu really comes back to look for you, if you see him, you will still feel Sad, otherwise let go of the past and give yourself a chance."
