Li Chuan held a full plate of food and found a spot to sit for her
“It was…from a car accident”Li Chuan looked a little embarrassedHe then shook hands fir Li ChuanI’hed happilyHer denture looked neat and whiteI was scared that they would fall out while she was laughingAs I was just thinking about it, I heard a “clump” sound and her denture really fell out!

Li Chuan and I reached out our hands at the saer so he quickly picked up her denture froround and said softly, “Madarabbed a paper cup and headed to the washroom
The old lady didn’tlady, is that Mr wang your boyfriend?”
Air was leaking out of her mouth as she spoke without her denture
“He is Chinese-Swiss”
“Yeah”
I sensed that the old lady was taking the opportunity to criticize me, so I quickly explained, “Li Chuan is a very confident and capable personIf he needed help, he would have asked htly
Li Chuan walked over and gave the old lady back her clean denture in the paper cupHe handed her a napkin while he was at itThe old lady used the napkin to cover her face and put the denture back into her lea white
She reached out and shook Li Chuan’s hand, “My surname is HuaMy name is Hua XiaoI’m a painter”Every word started with a “H” pronunciation, so I looked at her nervously, worried that her denture would fall out againAs a result, I didn’t hear what she said and thought that her name was Hua Jiao (as in Sichuan Pepper), which h but didn’t dare to
Li Chuan was intrigued and asked further, “Madas?”
“There is a painter a Xi, who also paints traditional Chinese paintings, do you also know him?”
“Yes, he isXi, the fa panelHe was a disciple who graduated fro industryWith that said, this old lady hedHe quickly said, “Excuse lish) I aentleainIt took hing
I giggled inso well; one was too careless, who didn’t ; one was too careful, who apologized all day for coughing
“Mada to the resting room”I pulled Li Chuan and dashed away
We went into an empty room outside the hallLi Chuan covered hisI looked at hihed, “There was mustard in that plate of food and you can’t eat itHow could you forget?”
“Are you feeling better now?”I was a little worried, “Why don’t we head back?”
“Honestly, the tender requires talent and designIt won’t matter hoell you present yourself at the party”
“That’s only true if we’re abroadI can’t be sure about that hereFurther Hao Tian who asked ardless of what the reason is, it’ll be letting him down”
Li Chuan came to lend a hand at this critical ti Hao TianHowever, Tian Xiao Gang and Xie He Yang ether, which was discouraging for usDuring the last ten days, Li Chuan observed the area, ave his full efforts and was determined to win the bidTherefore, he felt tremendous pressure
“I think when you return to Switzerland, you should write an essay on ‘the challenges in China of a designer frohed as he looked at meI stared at him and felt a little dizzyThis was the s for for six yearsIt was showcased right in front of o to heaven
He stood up and the gauze that was still wrapped around his wrist caught my eyesWas the wound that deep?It had been three days and it was still not heal?
He interrupted me, “Xiao Qiu, toe for the new year?”
“Can you carry out the views of feo, please”He looked intoyou”
I felt that his expression turned coldIt was exactly like the day we broke up six years ago
At this moment, I suddenly understood why he caave Li Chuan all the ained from the revenue, it would not be an aive up his current work, give up recuperating his health at the hospital, and come here from afar just for money
He was here only because I had sent hio while I was drunkThe e of exclamation marks:
“Li Chuan, come back!!!”
That was the first email I sent hiretted it after sending the emailBut the email was actually returned as undeliverable three seconds laterThe system letter said that the recipient rejected the eain
Therefore, he caotten about him and because it was his responsibility to sever all ties with ht
I lost my smile and ht a ticket back to ZurichI will leave right after the presentation”
I laughed coldly and placed out my hand, “Where’s the ticket?Let me see it”
He really did reach into his wallet and showed me the ticketI ripped it apart within seconds, “There’s no longer a ticket”
I ad crazyI felt helpless so I acted out of fieryI couldn’t let Li Chuan leave me this tilish) You need a closure”
“…” He wouldn’t say anything
“I don’t have any illnessYou don’t need to worry about me”
“I want you to look into my eyes then,” I stared at his face, “look intoLi Chuan, don’t love me”
He lowered his head in silenceA moment later, he lifted his head and looked into my eyesHe spoke sloord by word, “Yes, Xiao QiuI don’t love you anybetween us can coet about me completely, not have anyainCan you…do that?”
My heart shrunk bit by bitIn an instant, it became an hardened core
I said, “I can do itBut I have one condition”
“I can end everything, but you have to stay in Beijing, stay at CGP”
“Until I say that you can leave”
“I prolish) But you must move on”
I didn’t answerI stood up and said, “Excuse o to the washroom”
I dashed into a stall, locked the door, and sat on top of the toiletMy tears shed non-stop
Why did I have to study fe else that I could do for Li ChuanI cried while sitting on the toilet It was as if ht I could stop after an hourFive hours had passed when I could finally stop and stand up froI had used up all the toilet paper beside meWhen I saw myself in the mirror in front of the washbasins, tears were all over my face, my hair was messy and my eyes were swollen like walnutsMy tears had not stoppedThey continued sheddingI grabbed a big roll of toilet paper and cried for another twenty minutes beside the doorWhen I could finally stop, I covered my face with a scarf and lowered my head as I walked out the entrance doors
Someone walked over and helped me put on an overcoatWe walked quietly to the carHe opened the door for radually calhed softly and leaned over to help me put on my seatbeltAt that moment, I said, “Li Chuan, I want to caress the back of your head”
“Why did you want to touch the back of my head?”
“I wanted to knohat your head was made of”
