Chapter 310: Finale
“To be honest, I was attracted to you the day we met again.”
“Even if I don’t remember my past with you, I still can’t help but care about you. Otherwise, as the president, how could I allow a complete stranger to get close to me? Shao An thought that there was something wrong with my mental state…”
Jin Yang struggled to say these words. After a short pause, he panted heavily. His lips turned ashen and his hands turned cold.
“No matter how many times I lose my memory, I will always be able to pick you out from the crowd again and fall in love with you.”
“Qiu Tong, live well and take good care of the children. If there’s a next life, we will meet again.”
A wind blew gently outside the window. Jin Yang closed his eyes in exhaustion and said slowly, “I won’t leave. I will always stay by your side and the children’s side. The sunshine, the wind, the rain, it will all be me. Don’t be sad. You have to smile!”
“I promise you.”
Qiu Tong nodded. Jin Yang smiled in relief, his expression and life frozen.
Jin Yang had lied. He had regrets.
He wanted to spend the rest of his life with Qiu Tong. He wanted to see Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao grow up and Little Yu fall in love. All their troubles had just ended and he could finally welcome a stable and blissful life.
However, Jin Yang had no choice. He couldn’t just watch as Qiu Tong encountered danger. If he had to choose, he would rather leave by himself.
Qiu Tong hugged Jin Yang’s body, which was gradually growing colder and stiffer by the minute. She kept silent, not moving at all.
Qiu Rong and Song Yan wanted to persuade her, but it was useless.
For the next 24 hours, Qiu Tong dealt with Jin Yang’s funeral affairs stoically.
She returned to the country with Jin Yang’s photo and locked herself in her room for a month. She refused to see anyone and refused to speak.
Who was more pitiful? The person who died or the person who was left behind?
No one had the answer. Qiu Tong sat by the bed with bloodshot eyes. She was holding Jin Yang’s pajamas in her arms. The room seemed to be filled with his scent. In her daze, Qiu Tong could almost see Jin Yang walking towards her with a smile. He smiled ambiguously and reached out his hand to her.
Qiu Tong raised her hand to the empty air, two drops of tears falling from the corners of her eyes.
Knock knock. Song Yan pushed the door open and entered. He smelled the alcohol in the air and turned on the lights in the room.
The glaring light made Qiu Tong instinctively wince. She frowned and said in a hoarse voice, “Get out.”
“Jin Yang won’t want to see you like this. The children are worried about you. They squat at the door of your room every day. Little Yu’s eyes are about to burst from crying. Qiu Rong is also refusing to eat and drink because of you. Can you bear to see them suffer for you?”
“There’s no way to change what happened. We have to move forward!”
Song Yan took out a foldable knife and threw it in front of Qiu Tong. “Otherwise, you can accompany Jin Yang! This way, there will at least be a deadline. Qiu Rong and the children will be able to walk out of their sadness after being sad for a period of time, and not continue to sink with you!”
“The current you is not like the Qiu Tong I know at all.”
“Jin Yang will never love such a cowardly woman.”
Song Yan turned around and left, slamming the door. Qiu Tong stared at the foldable knife in confusion. She wiped the sharp blade with her finger. The pain of her skin being cut woke her up a little.
A cool breeze blew in through the open window and a petal landed on Qiu Tong’s palm.
Warm sunlight shone on the side of her face, as if two invisible hands were stroking her hair. She suddenly smiled brightly.
Several years later, as the president, Song Yan eliminated the Dark Web and the terrorist organization. Qiu Rong and Qiu Xingyuan developed a drug that could improve the functions of the human body. However, this completed drug would not have any side effects on the body. Qiu Xingqiao was successfully accepted by the military special force. As the youngest officer, he protected everyone on this land.
As the top boss in the information technology field, Qiu Xingyu had created a VR experience game.
The game could read the user’s memories and construct virtual scenes based on real memories. Qiu Xingyu gave this game to Qiu Tong as a gift and named it “Tong”.
In the villa, Qiu Tong sat quietly by the window. Time had left its mark on her face.
She picked up the VR device and put it on. The virtual world and reality overlapped, making it impossible to tell what was real or fake.
Light footsteps suddenly came from behind. Qiu Tong turned around and saw Jin Yang’s familiar face. She couldn’t help covering her red lips as tears flowed down her cheeks.
Jin Yang reached out his hand and said in a clear voice, “Tongtong, long time no see.”
Qiu Tong slowly stood up and walked to the empty balcony. She stretched out her hand.
The old railing creaked in the wind and swayed gently, as if danger could happen at any moment.
“Jin Yang, long time no see!”
Smack… the fluttering white dress was dazzling and bright under the sunlight. The captivating redness encompassing Qiu Tong’s deep longing froze this moment. Forever.
