Chapter 115: A Gift
After being troubled by the so-called "promiscuous and ambiguous" problem, I lived carefully. Even the phone calls between Su Mei and Xia Feier, I pretended not to see it. I was a little nervous. But in this kind of nervousness, I was even more eager to see Mo Han, but she never contacted me again. I could only imagine that her not contact was to create a mysterious atmosphere before meeting......
For more than a week, I have been busy with the opening of the store, and tomorrow is the day when the store is officially opened. This night, I have been busy until nine o'clock when I returned home from the store.
.........
My bike was not fast along the way. Every time my life came to a turning point, I like to go to the ancient bridge to enjoy the wind. I have a deep affection for it, and it is where my life begins again.
I stopped the car, sat on the sidewalk on the ancient bridge, lit a cigarette, and looked at the smoke, and my mind settled down.
Opposite me is where Mo Han once appeared. Looking back, it seems like yesterday, in my heart, Mo Han may have never left, because I miss her every day.
She is a kind and beautiful woman. She can disdain everything, but she is willing to talk to beggars at the bottom of society and give them warmth. This is a rare pure quality. Meeting her is my blessing, and falling in love with her is even more of a blessing.
Suddenly I felt that the hardships I had experienced were not at all.
Looking back, the fortune teller who knew the destiny was still sitting not far away. My eyes happened to be touching him. He seemed to remember me, and an angry expression appeared on his face. This is normal. After all, I used him. People always miss the people who hurt themselves, but rarely remember the people who are good to them...
I smiled and walked towards the fortune teller who knew destiny.
"Master Taoist, we're meeting again." I smiled and teased that he was a Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest glanced at me, ignored me, and closed his eyes again.
"Master, smoke a cigarette." I pushed him and said.
"Not to smoke..." The Taoist priest still looked at me.
"Take it." I pushed him and handed him a whole pack of cigarettes.
He opened his eyes and looked, his expression changed, and he stuffed the newly unpacked bag of Yuxi from my hand into his pocket.
A pack of cigarettes eliminated the Taoist priest’s resentment towards me, and he took the initiative to talk to me: “Young man, where is your girlfriend?”
"Leave." I said a little sadly.
"Young man~~ So you should be kind, and the laws of nature are circulating, and you will be unhappy to retribution!" said the Taoist priest touching his beard.
"The Taoist priest said," I stopped and said to him again: "Master, can you help me calculate when she will return to me?"
The Taoist priest seemed very reluctant, as if he calculated when Mo Han would appear in front of me, which would reveal the secret of heaven and would reduce his life.
"Forget it, forgot...... Let's help you figure out a fortune." After saying that, the Taoist priest closed his eyes and counted on his fingers.
I looked elsewhere absent-mindedly, and only the genius believed that he could calculate it.
.........
Finally, the Taoist priest slowly opened his eyes, and I quickly came to my senses and looked at him as if he was expecting.
The Taoist priest's expression was still in a dilemma, and he looked unspeakable, but I no longer had cigarettes for him.
"Young man, there are certain numbers of fate, no one can force it."
I was speechless and said, "The Taoist Master is talking cliché again..." I despised him in my heart, and there was no difference between this and not saying anything.
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed..." The Taoist priest said, shook his head, looking helpless.
I thought to myself: "Give you a Chinese, can you still not reveal your secrets?"
I moved the stool that the priest sat for the guest, sat down beside him, lit a cigarette and started smoking, and was too lazy to say anything.
The Taoist priest seemed to know that I didn't trust him, and said to me again: "Young man, pay more attention to the people around you..."
I glanced at him and still didn't respond to his words. In my opinion, this was another nonsense.
My performance made the Taoist priest sigh, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
...........
I raised my hand and looked at the time. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. I put out the cigarette butts in my hand and prepared to leave.
"Master, I'm leaving. Let's talk again when I have time." I patted the Taoist priest on the shoulder and said.
The Taoist priest seemed to be dissatisfied with my contempt for him just now, and just said "hum" and stopped talking.
I smiled, helped him to fix his crooked hat, turned around and left...
...........
I returned to the ancient bridge and looked around... In the crowd, I seemed to see Mo Han's shadow. I was so excited that I pushed away the crowd blocking me and ran forward quickly...
Disappointment permeated my heart. I actually missed Mo Han so much. I had an illusion that I just saw that it was just a woman with a body shape similar to Mo Han.
The crowd passed by me in a circle. I closed my eyes and didn't want to look at this restless world anymore. I hope to dilute the disappointment in my heart with a moment of tranquility.
...........
"Big brother, I'll give you something."
I opened my eyes, and a child pulled the corner of my clothes, held a delicate box in his other hand.
"Give it to me?"
"Yes, are you called Brother Zhang Yixi?" the child asked me with his eyes blinking.
I smiled and said, "Well, I am Brother Zhang Yixi."
"That's for you." After saying that, he handed the box to me and left jumping away.
.........
I opened the box inexplicably, and what caught my eye was an exquisite men's watch. I ignored the watch and opened the mezzanine of the box. I felt that it was not as simple as a watch. There should be a note inside, telling me who gave me the note of this watch.
............
I couldn't find the note I imagined, but I knew in my heart who gave me this gift. It was "Mo Han". It must be Mo Han. She gave me a watch, and she must have wanted to tell me "Don't lose to time and distance."
Maybe just now, we were only a short distance away.
I shouted "Mo Han" and ran forward. I believe Mo Han has not gone far...
The crowd was surging, and I couldn't find Mo Han. I didn't want to give up. I took out the phone and dialed her number, and continued to run forward...
The "beep" sound continued to sound, and I was ecstatic. This time Mo Han did not turn off the phone.
The phone was hung up...
"You are in Nantong, right? Where are you? Don't miss me..." I stopped running wildly, and sent this message to Mo Han in a disordered breath.
"Yixi...I... originally thought I had the courage to stand face to face with you, but... until this afternoon...I only dared to look at you from afar... Give me some more time."
"You gave me a watch, just to tell me, will you give you some more time?...No, no, where you are, I want to see you immediately, now, immediately..." I almost lost control and sent the message.
Mo Han hasn't replied to my message for a long time.
"Do you know, I miss you, I have become my thoughts, waiting for you, waiting for you, waiting for you, not torture me anymore..." I almost begged.
"Yixi, don't do this. The more you do this, the less courage I have to see you..."
