Qiao Xuan turned his head and saw that not far behind her, there was a person smiling and waving at her.

It was Sheng Qian.

The two of them went to the same restaurant. As usual, Sheng Qian helped her order a meal, grabbed a tissue and asked while smiling: "Do you miss me?"

He was darker and skinnier than before, even his style of dressing was different from before. Dressed in jeans and camel s clothing, he looked like a college student who had just graduated. Qiao Xuan could not imagine what he had experienced during this period.

Instead of answering his question, she asked, "When did you come back?"

"Two days ago." Sheng Qian's face and eyes, when he smiled, were still filled with charms.

"Is it bitter there?" Qiao Xuan lowered his head and stirred his coffee.

"Not bad, it's just a little cold." Sheng Qian said indifferently, and then showed her his phone.

Qiao Xuan took it and saw that there were many of his photos on it. He was wearing a thick suit and was riding on a yak as he followed the locals through the endless snow. And he went on a pilgrimage to Lhasa, bowing three times, reverently holding the scripture in his hand and chanting around the Potala Palace.

While Qiao Xuan was looking at it, Sheng Qian reached out his hand and handed over a scripture to her: "This is for you."

Qiao Xuan looked at him with a face full of sincerity, to the point that he couldn't even say a word of rejection. Just like when he went to Europe, he wanted to retrace the route she took.

After Qiao Xuan returned home, he opened the Scroll of Transposition and took out a piece of paper. On it was a poem:

That day, close your eyes in the mist of the shop, suddenly hear the verses of your chanting mantra

That month, I shook all the trolleys, not for excess, just to touch your fingertips

That year, kowtowing long prostrate on the mountain road, not for audience, just to stick close to your warmth

"In that life, turning the mountains and rivers to the pagodas, ah, not for the rebirth, but for meeting you on the way"

Qiao Xuan closed his eyes as tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

The trees in the early spring began to sprout, and the ice on the surface of the river slowly melted away. Sheng Liang's name once again appeared on the front pages of various websites.

When Qiao’s father saw their pictures, he was so shocked that he started stuttering, "Isn't she... That... Little Luo? "

Their gazes then gathered on Qiao Xuan, but they saw that she was still carefully pruning the flowers, as if the two people in the news had nothing to do with her.

Even if she still cared about him, what could she do about it? It was her choice, and seeing that he was doing well, she felt that it was worth it.

Recently, a few leading companies had started to call her. They must have seen the news and knew that she could no longer work at Sheng Liang's company, so they set their eyes on her.

However, the company they recommended had mediocre talent, so she was not interested.

Another headhunter called her that day, and since she had nothing to do, she went to meet with this person. He said that he had a good company that asked her to be its vice president.

"What company? Do you have any information on them?" From the other party's confident smile, Qiao Xuan guessed that it would be different from the other companies.

The person laughed, then said lightly: "There's no need for any information, Miss Qiao should have also heard of it, and that's Lan Xi International."

Lan Xi International, Qiao Xuan naturally knew that it was a subsidiary of the Xilin Family of the north, and was one of the top five hundred enterprises in the entire world.

As for Xilin Family, they were the descendants of a full Qing Dynasty, and were once part of the imperial family. Even now, they still have a very deep background, and in the entire northern region, they are an existence that no one can shake.

They wanted her to be their vice president?

Qiao Xuan didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"I'll think about it." Before he left, Qiao Xuan said.

Actually, there was nothing to consider. With the power in Xilin Family, if they really set their eyes on her, they would do everything they could to make her submit.

Qiao Xuan did not go straight home, but first went to the library. Before she even finished reading the last book, she borrowed another piece of paper and continued to read, when she flipped open the paper, it said that if fate did not allow it, I am willing to become your Knight and protect you forever.

Qiao Xuan recognized the handwriting, it was Sheng Qian's.

He had borrowed the same book as her, so he probably thought she wouldn't read any more, which was why he had written this sentence.

No matter how sluggish Qiao Xuan's feelings were, she still understood Sheng Qian's intentions. After such a long period of time, she and Sheng Liang were well-matched, yet Sheng Qian had never given up on her.

Qiao Xuan hesitated for a long time before finally giving Sheng Qian a call. "The weather forecast says that it will be a sunny day tomorrow, so I want to go to the outskirts to draw my life. Accompany me."

Sheng Qian was startled, then immediately became happy: "Of course it's good, I'll come and pick you up tomorrow!"

"Yes." Qiao Xuan hung up and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Let's do it like this. This kind of feeling was also pretty good. Rumbling love was something people yearned for, but ordinary life was life. One couldn't have both the fish and the bear's paw. Since he had made his choice, he wouldn't regret it.

Qiao Xuan came out of the library and looked up at the blue sky as if he was looking at a blue mirror, clean and transparent.

Just as she was about to go down the stairs, she heard someone calling her. She turned her head and saw that it was Luo Jie.

After the funeral, she no longer had anything to do with them, so she didn't know why Luo Jie had come to find her again.

Seeing that she did not move, Luo Jie walked forward, looked around and said softly: "Miss Qiao, I have something to say to you, can you change to a different location?"

"I still want to go home. If you have something to say, you can say it here." Qiao Xuan was expressionless, and did not look at him again.

Luo Jie could only say: "Young Master Liang told me to tell you not to go to Lan Xi International."

They were well-informed, she had just met the headhunter company's people, Sheng Liang knew about it so quickly.

Qiao Xuan said to Luo Jie in a cold voice: "It's my freedom to go wherever I want, I don't need your Young Master Liang to worry about me. I'm already a married woman, it's not good to care about other women's matters."

Luo Jie was rendered speechless by her. He could only watch as she left and try to call for her to stop, but he knew that it was useless. Even if Qiao Xuan became more stubborn, he wouldn't be able to pull her back no matter how hard he tried.

Although Qiao Xuan was furious at the time, she still calmed down. She seriously thought about the reason why Sheng Liang would stop her, but she thought of many possibilities, and none of them seemed reasonable.

After dinner, Qiao Xuan was in the living room watching TV with her parents. Hearing the doorbell ring, she walked over to open the door, and was stunned when she saw the person outside.

It was actually Sheng Liang.

Qiao Xuan reacted and immediately wanted to close the door, but Sheng Liang's hand was still at the side of the door. She suddenly closed it, and immediately held his hand tightly, but he still did not let go.
