Mu Wanqing had originally thought that her life was a calm and serene lake. She was unwilling to change and hated waves. Gentle breeze and gentle rain, warm sunshine, that was the final destination in her heart.

However, life would never go as you wished. It seemed that every time she thought she was on the right track, the outside world would give her an unexpected shock.

How determined must he be to not be entangled by the past? How rational must one be to not panic when an accident occurred?

Mu Wanqing knew that since that night at the banquet, some things between her, Qin Tian and Chi Shuai had changed overnight.

When she saw Qin Tian from afar, she only nodded slightly, with a little more indifference and alienation. Mu Wanqing, who had been transferred to the design department, met Chi Shuai more frequently, but she also deliberately maintained a distance.

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday.

After work in the afternoon, Mu Wanqing didn't rush to pack her bag and leave. Instead, she stayed behind to sort out the documents and information on her desk and then put them into the file basket. After packing up, Mu Wanqing heaved a huge sigh of relief. She looked at the time, it was almost eight o'clock. Her stomach grumbled in protest, and she suddenly remembered that she had not eaten yet.

When Mu Wanqing walked past Qin Tian's office with her bag, the door opened from the inside.

Mu Wanqing was taken aback and her expression turned unnatural,""Still here?"

"Still here?"

The same question came out of their mouths.

For a moment, both of them were speechless, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

"Let's eat together." With a tone that did not allow for rejection, Qin Tian cut off Mu Wanqing's chances of rejection.

This time, Mu Wanqing didn't choose to dodge. Speaking of which, it had been some time since the last banquet. The two of them had interacted many times in public and private. The awkwardness between the two of them had disappeared by more than half. Unknowingly, the distance between them had also shortened.

Mu Wanqing felt that perhaps deep down in her heart, she also yearned for such a chance encounter.

In the parking lot.

Mu Wanqing's thoughts were still wandering when a short whistle interrupted her train of thought.

The silver BMW730 stopped quietly in front of her.

Qin Tian opened the car door from the inside.

"Get in the car." He considerately helped Mu Wanqing fasten her seatbelt.

"Where are we going?" Mu Wanqing was curious.

"Oh, you'll know later." Qin Tian's obsidian-like eyes flashed with a smile as he said mysteriously to Mu Wanqing. That pure and sunny smile, with just one glance, he was already immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.

His fair fingers gently pulled out a disk and put it into the CD.

The soft chirping of birds and the gurgling of water in the forest slowly and quietly flowed out from the sound system, instantly filling the car that was filled with a faint fragrance.

Qin Tian did not speak and just focused on driving.

In an instant, the endless chaos, all the sadness and joy, slowly settled in Mu Wanqing's heart.

Mu Wanqing looked out of the car window.

Outside the window was the quiet night and the bustling street. The neon lights reflected the passion of the city. In this fast-paced city, different plots were played out every day. Happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy were all forms of life. Be it happiness or sadness. As time passed, the crowded memories in his heart would be erased.

"We're here." Qin Tian helped Mu Wanqing unbuckle her seatbelt.

Mu Wanqing, who had just alighted from the car, was shocked by the night market.

The only road left in the entire city was still shining with splendor. A few pop songs were mixed together, making it difficult to distinguish and grasp. The crowd was crowded with joy, and everything was covered under the surface of nothingness. The stalls by the roadside were arranged in an orderly manner. The shouts and music drowned out the laughter of the crowd, and the noise swallowed up the silence of the night. The flashing neon lights made the night even more flamboyant. A new wave of people surged, rushing to every fork and corner of the road.

Such a night market made people hate and love it at the same time. They hated the hypocrisy that it wanted to cover up, but they loved the feeling that it was another world that was more noisy than the city.

Mu Wanqing closed her fine eyelashes and looked back at Qin Tian in surprise. She really didn't expect him to bring her to such a place. She did not expect the handsome and flawless CEO to go to a street stall to eat such "unclean" food.

Qin Tian seemed to have seen through Mu Wanqing's thoughts as he smiled and said,""When we were in university, we often came here to eat.”

He paused for a moment and said with deep eyes,"I didn't have much money to go to school at that time. The snacks here were cheap and delicious. He really missed those carefree days.”

Memories were the most beautiful, but the most hurtful.

Mu Wanqing pursed her lips and remained silent. Qin Tian's words stirred up her sadness that filled the sky. At that time, she and Han Dong often visited these street stalls. The two of them ate a plate of snacks with relish and beamed. At that time, what she tasted was not the deliciousness of snacks, but the sweetness of love.

We took the pre-written script and stepped on the points that had been marked long ago, waiting for the moment of careful calculation. However, the infatuated footsteps could not catch up with the wings of the change of heart. In the end, the relationship between us was only a passerby.

Qin Tian narrowed his eyes and glanced sideways at Mu Wanqing's slightly sad face. He stared at her for a while and suddenly frowned, as if he wanted to see through her soul.

Memories were memories, and the past was the past. No matter how deep a memory was, it would fade away one day.

Qin Tian took a deep breath.

The night market that he brought Mu Wanqing to was the largest and most unique place in the city. Wandering among all kinds of delicious and special snacks, it was dazzling and made people feel hungry.

There were nearly a hundred stalls in this night market, and there were all kinds of snacks. The most distinctive ones were knife-sliced noodles, pork liver soup, oyster omelet, meatballs, skewers, soup dumplings, pot dumplings, pineapple cakes, pan-fried dumplings, stewed pork ribs, and so on.

They chose a stall that looked neat and tidy and sat down. There weren't many people. The stall owner cooked the raw stir-fried flowers properly. They were cooked but not old, fresh and delicious. He also poured a delicious sauce on them, making people feel their appetite increase. As soon as the dishes were served, the two of them began to feast. The stall owner also ordered some delicious snacks such as oyster omelets and honey cakes. The meal was free and happy.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten such authentic snacks.”Mu Wanqing rubbed her slightly swollen stomach and praised Su Yang.

"Yes, I am. The last time I came here was five years ago.”Qin Tian lowered his head and smiled warmly at Mu Wanqing.

After the meal, the distance between Mu Wanqing and Qin Tian was shortened.

Hearing Qin Tian mention the past, Mu Wanqing could not help but think of herself and Han Dong, who were eating snacks at the street stalls. As time passed, things remained the same and people changed. Even memories seemed redundant. He did not expect that the person who came to the stall with him today had already changed to someone else…

"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere!" Qin Tian was in a good mood. He took out his car keys and opened the door for Mu Wanqing. After Mu Wanqing got into the car, he helped her fasten her seatbelt.

Mu Wanqing looked at Qin Tian. He was gentle and indifferent, still as handsome as ever. At this moment, he had an easy-going and calm expression as he stared at her for her opinion.

"Alright." Mu Wanqing smiled sweetly.

It felt like an instant, but it also felt like a century. Qin Tian's ears rang with the sound of light and even breathing--Mu Wanqing nestled in her seat and fell asleep quietly.

Qin Tian's eyes looked deeply at the person beside him who was still beautiful and gentle in her sleep. The corners of his lips curled into a gentle smile.

……

"We're here." Qin Tian helped Mu Wanqing unbuckle her seatbelt and woke her up.

Hearing the sound of waves slapping against each other, Mu Wanqing's tiredness was gone. She lifted her small face and smiled sweetly at Qin Tian.

When she opened the car door, Mu Wanqing could smell the refreshing sea breeze.

It was indeed the seaside.

The night was getting darker and the stars were shining brightly. Neon lights were glittering all over the city, especially the lights on the hills around the harbor. They were reflected on the dark blue sea from the sky, swaying and flickering with the waves like a string of flowing pearls, reflecting the stars in the sky. It was very beautiful. At this moment, there were men and women strolling by the beach in twos and threes.

Mu Wanqing was unconsciously intoxicated by the beautiful night sky. She took off her shoes and slowly walked along the beach. The seawater gently caressed the soft sand, making a gentle swishing sound. The sea breeze was refreshing and cool. Mu Wanqing's heart was filled with an indescribable pleasure.

Qin Tian closed the car door and crossed his arms as he looked inquisitively at the lively person on the beach. In a certain corner of her heart, a feeling called 'heart' unconsciously rose.

The person who was so close to him gave others a different shock every time. She was like spring water, with a bright and beautiful tone, but also with blurred and chaotic embellishments. She was constantly changing and hiding, giving people endless space for imagination.

"Come and pick up the shells. There are many seashells here." There were many shells of different sizes by the sea, which made Mu Wanqing extremely excited. She quickly squatted down and called Qin Tian over to pick up the shells.

Qin Tian was deeply affected by Mu Wanqing's quick-witted innocence, and his indulgent feelings were immediately revealed through her tender eyes. He lifted the corners of his mouth and bent down to join the ranks of picking up the shells.

"These are the shells of hermit crabs.”Qin Tian picked up a conch shell and said thoughtfully," The hermit crabs swimming around the ground are like asking about the whereabouts of happiness.”

"Actually, the hermit crab is already very happy.”Mu Wanqing shook her head and her gaze shifted to the conch shell as she smiled.

Qin Tian raised his eyes and smiled faintly.""Oh, what do you mean?"

Mu Wanqing looked at Qin Tian seriously, her eyes sparkling with starlight: ""When the hermit crab moves from one shell to another, it will use its legs to move the sea antlers to the new shell and bring the sea antlers around to search for food. However, when danger came, the Sea Anemone would use its thorns to protect the crab. It could also secrete venom to kill the hermit crab's natural enemy. They were living together without any deception or betrayal. Wasn't that happy enough?”

"The happiness of life is to be able to see the person you love deeply every morning when you wake up.”Qin Tian raised his eyebrows slightly and met Mu Wanqing's watery eyes. With just one glance, it was engraved in his heart and he was willing to sink into it.

Mu Wanqing retracted her watery eyes and pursed her lips in silence.

"I picked up a purple shell!" Qin Tian's good-looking eyebrows raised slightly, and his eyes were filled with joy." For you."”

Mu Wanqing smiled sweetly. Her watery eyes sparkled as she caressed the purple shell that Qin Tian gave her like a treasure.

The purple shell was named after its purple color. They were extremely rare and precious. The purple shell represented perfect and unwavering romantic love. It was the patron saint of love. If the purple shell was given to the one who liked it, then the couple would receive the favor of God and have romantic love.

Mu Wanqing lowered her eyes and thought to herself," Did he give me this shell to hint…

No, it couldn't be. It must be his illusion.

Mu Wanqing knew about the legend of the purple shell. Perhaps only by continuing to be indifferent could he maintain his current tranquil and peaceful life.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
