Entrust The Rest Of My Life To You Chapter 40

(Words in bold letters are in english in the original text.)

Before returning home from vacation, at the coffee shop.

I'm sitting opposite An Fei. She looked at her coffee cup and spoke slowly about her glimpse of Shao Jiang when she first arrived in China with English that had that hard to recognize accent. In her hometown, love is pure and warm like wine, so when she met Shao, she decided to stay in China.

An Fei is a beautiful girl with a healthy complexion and warm personality from southern France. Now, she is no longer talking shyly like before, but with a low voice and dignified elegance.

“Chinese people are very strange, a girl, first depends on her education, then her family background, finally see if there is a good job. The standard of good work is decent. Even if you don't really like it, as long as it is decent.”

She has been unable to adapt to the vanity peculiar to Chinese society. But still chasing Shao and applied for a graduate student at H university. She gave up her favorite major and studied management. After graduation, she went to a foreign company. With a seemingly generous salary, she misses her hometown winery, in a complex interpersonal office.

“I don't know why others envy me, real-life Du Lala?”

(TNote: Du Lala, the hero of the novel ” Du Lala's Promotion”; is a typical representative of the middle cla.s.s. She has no background, is well educated, has a very high IQ and EQ, and strives on her own.)

She has always maintained the relations.h.i.+p with Shao as a close friend of the opposite s*x, striving to make herself a dignified, steady and intelligent perfect woman. When she felt that she could match Shao, Shao said to her, “8You're not the one8.”

An Fei said that Shao was the driving force behind her staying away from her family, her favorite career and her simple life. She looked up at me in a low voice: “Please—please–“

My heart suddenly felt sorry for this girl.

The foreign affairs of most foreign students in the school were hot and short-lived. An Fei is a long-term affair that is rare to see, but I became the first listener to her grievance and confusion.

I don't know how to accurately express ‘asking for what they don't have'. I can only look out of the window. The Doctor is walking through the crosswalk and his eyes were clear: “My fiancé. I love him, quite much.”

An Fei saw the Doctor and her expression was very subtle. I said goodbye and went out to meet the Doctor. He took me to pay homage to my grandparents.

We walked side by side and remained silent for a moment. The Doctor said, “You are a little depressed. ”

I thought of the tears that An Fei had just spilled and took his arm: “A Frenchman, for a Chinese, stayed in China and changed a lot for the person, but the Chinese didn't want it.”

“Why not just go home?”

“Go home, but the heart stays here. ”

The doctor adjusted the atmosphere: “Is that Chinese not you?”

I have no words, I could only roll my eyes. Anyone who eats two or more meals with San San will be infected with her weird way of thinking.

“The Chinese is Shao.”

The Doctor frowned but did not answer.

Looking back, I wanted to mend the situation after the mistake: “That, uh, uh–” what should I say? A woman pursuing Shao came to me?

I decided to tell the truth. I have absolute trust in the Doctor's mind and psychological maturity.

“She had some misunderstanding about Shao and me. ”

“Hmm?”

“Then explain it clearly, and I'll go with you. ” I was embarra.s.sed and skipped the fiancé part.

I still feel that annual leave is not as short as a vacation. Our family is quite small, but it seems time runs out when visiting relatives.

On the third day of the third year, I was holding up a video of the Doctor to Xiao Geng.

“Who am I?”

“Aunt.”

“Who's this?” I pointed to the Doctor on the screen with his head propped up and smiling.

Xiao Geng looked at him innocently: “Uncle.”

“It's my– uncle–”

Xiao Geng looked at both people blankly, then pointed firmly at the screen: “Uncle!”

(TNote: Xiao Geng said Shu Shu [叔叔] = ‘father's younger brother' while she wanted him to say Gu Fu [姑父]= ‘husband of father's sister'.)

Gu Wei was on the verge of laughing out loud.

On the fourth day of the junior high school, he went to Y city personally and taught for ten minutes. I really didn't know how to teach. Only after that, Xiao Geng shouted “Uncle!” as soon as he saw him.

(TNote: Gu Fu!)

On the sixth day of the month, I returned to X city for a reunion in the evening.

I finally understand that when Teacher Lin said, ‘It's okay to have a cla.s.s reunion, and break up — couple– face each other', he had been filled with three goblets of red wine for various reasons, and he held his chin and pretended to be calm.

(Tnote: It's a phrase meaning: The reunion provides a chance for students who used to be lovers to make a comeback.)

Today, three or four sessions of graduations from T University were held together in X City. There are not many people, but they are all the essentials. These are all kinds of people, more or less, true or false, they drink too much. The dinner table wouldn't be peaceful. Yin s.h.i.+ said that silence is golden when your capacity for liquor does not exceed half the table. I tried my best to keep a low profile. I wanted to be invisible, but I was slapped on the shoulder by Mr. F: “Lin Zhixiao, it's hard enough to have a meal with you. No matter what, let's go together?”

“Senior, I seldom have a holiday to improve my meals, just let me stay here.” I can't even hold red wine and I'm not so crazy to go with you for white wine.

The other side straightened up and shouted at the next table: “Ah, Shao Jiang, the state subsidizes so much money every year, why is the food for out graduate students so bad?”

Shao Jiang laughed but did not answer.

Mr. F took up his hand again and said, “Hey, our band of people do not want to make progress. Why don't the two of you exchange cups?”

I rolled my eyes at him and sat opposite him. Doctor, are you blind?

Mother said, to men who are drunk and like to flirt with women, don't act polite.

I lifted his paw and said, “We graduate students are all engage in idle theorizing. You are an actual fighter. And now you are seriously studying– birth–” You only got married last month and will become a father next month. Or were you forced into the marriage hall by the woman? Loathing you.

Sure enough, public opinion is always attracted by a new explosive news. The people took turns to congratulate with a toast, the Doctor opposite took bottles to tease him. Little boy, you underestimate the importance that real intellectuals attach to fame.

Later, when the noise became more and more fierce, Mr. F's cell phone was pulled out, and the crowd clamored to call Sister-in-law to pay New Year's greetings.

I was happy to be alone at leisure when dealing with a table of dishes. There is one more person on the empty seat beside me.

“You got to eat in peace." It was Shao Jiang.

I smiled and stopped eating.

“In college, I didn't know you liked me.”

I almost spit out a mouthful of corn shrimp.

He cleared his throat, wanted to say ‘who wasn't young and ignorant', and felt it too impolite, stuck for quite a while: “Then you shouldn't know. This is a thing of the past. ” How did he find out?

“Why don't you ‘like' anymore?”

I looked at Shao Jiang who didn't drink too much and thought for a moment, “Because I slowly realized what I really wanted, and then met the right person. ”

Shao's expression was faint as he heard this sentence, with a slight smile: “I found out a little too late. ”

I didn't go to weigh in on what he ‘found out'.

Shao raised his gla.s.s: “Then I wish you happiness. ”

I nodded, “thank you.”

Then watch him leave.

Leaving dinner, I also left my youth.

Fate is really wonderful, it never waits for anyone. If you had turned back, maybe we would have started something; but if you missed an intersecting road, we would have drifted away. Even though we haven't been able to have a romantic affair, I still thanked you. In my youth, as an excellent object that I can study and admire, and even regardless of gender, I tried to become better and grow up until I met my heart's belonging in the process of waiting alone.

Special Dialog

Doctor: I told Xiao Geng ‘Shu Shu' wouldn't to buy him delicious food, but ‘Gu Fu' will.

(…… The child's mind is too weak!)
