It has been three months since Li Zhi fully recovered.

Originally, it was still hot summer, and in a blink of an eye, early autumn has arrived.

Yan Qiu has also been busy recently. When Li Zhi was ill, he carved a sitting statue of Manjusri Bodhisattva out of golden nanmu for peace of mind.

Originally, I just wanted to pay my respects to myself, but Li Zhi held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and then said to him seriously: "You can participate in this year's golden carving knife award."

Yan Qiu originally thought he was joking, after all, the Golden Carving Knife Award is the most famous award in the wood carving industry, and every year the nominees are famous figures like Mr. Li in the industry.

Where is it his turn to participate in this junior.

However, Li Zhi was very persistent, and Yan Qiu couldn't hold him back, so he agreed to send him over for a try.

Unexpectedly, it actually won the silver award.

Although it is only a silver award, it is already the most valuable award in the industry. In addition, he is the youngest silver award winner so far, so his reputation has been completely established.

The media flocked to them all at once, but Yan Qiu rejected them all because of social fear and because he didn't want to face the camera, and only agreed to one media.

The reason for agreeing is also very simple. The name of the reporter who came to interview him is Tao Yu.

In fact, this name was nothing special to Yan Qiu, but within a few days after he refused, Lin Jin suddenly called, saying that the host invited him and Li Zhi to dinner.

Although Yan Qiu was a little confused, but he knew the relationship between Lin Jin and Li Zhi, and Lin Jin had helped them, so he still happily went to the appointment.

At the dinner table, Lin Jin seemed to have something to say, with a preoccupied look.

Although Yan Qiu and Lin Jin were not familiar with each other, they also knew his character, and it was the first time saw him so hesitant and hesitant.

"My main purpose today is to congratulate my sister-in-law. Grandpa Li never won this award when he was young. You are really a formidable young man." Lin Jin said, holding a glass of wine to toast him.

Yan Qiu's cheeks flushed from being called "little sister-in-law", and he quickly picked up the wine glass on the table, but he couldn't drink, so he used fruit juice instead.

"Thank you, just call me Yan Qiu."

"Okay." Lin Jin readily agreed, and drank the wine in his hand after speaking.

After drinking a glass of wine, he seemed to finally muster up the courage, but he still didn't say anything after struggling for a long time.

Yan Qiu looked at Li Zhi in a daze, and Li Zhi shook his head slightly at him, signaling him not to ask anything.

Yan Qiu had no choice but to eat the food in silence.

For this meal, Lin Jin said he was inviting them to drink, but he drank almost all the wine on the table by himself.

One cup after another, and soon people will be drunk.

It's rare that Li Zhi didn't stop him, he just called their driver.

Then he helped the drunk Lin Jin out.

After helping him to the car, Li Zhi got up and wanted to close the car door, but was stopped by Lin Jin.

"Li Zhi." Lin Jin didn't know what he thought of, and a trace of clarity returned to his eyes.

"I understand." Li Zhi sighed helplessly, patted his arm to signal him to let go, and then told the driver in front, "Take care of him."

"yes."

The two watched Lin Jin's car leave before returning to their own car.

Lin Jin tonight was really strange, so Yan Qiu couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with Lin Jin?"

Hearing this, Li Zhi took his hand and stroked his fingers lightly.

"Among the media that asked you for an exclusive interview recently is a reporter named Tao Yu."

"Yeah." The name is very special, so Yan Qiu still had a memory, and he quickly recalled it.

"He is Lin Jin's...predecessor."

When Yan Qiu heard this, he instantly understood, "He wants me to accept Tao Yu's exclusive interview?"

"If you force it..."

"I don't force it." Yan Qiu replied immediately after hearing this, "Lin Jin helped us once, so let me pay him back. I'm just curious..."

"What are you curious about?"

Yan Qiu remembered what Lin Jin said to him in the VIP room of the auction house that day, and how he lost his composure today, and asked with some doubts: "It seems that Lin Jin still can't forget him, why didn't he go back and look for him?"

"Tao Yu is getting married." Li Zhi replied.

"That's it." Yan Qiu was also disappointed when he heard the words, and said regretfully, "It's really too late."

"Yes." Li Zhi said, clenched his fingers, and said, "It's a pity."

Yan Qiu agreed to Tao Yu's exclusive interview.

Tao Yu was extremely efficient, and quickly set a time to bring the group together.

Tao Yuren, as the name suggests, is fair and cute, with a baby face, even in formal clothes, but people feel like a child who has stolen an adult's clothes, revealing a bit naive and ignorant of the world.

"Hello, Teacher Yan." Tao Yu saw him and extended her hand enthusiastically.

"Hello." Yan Qiu quickly shook back.

"Thank you for accepting our exclusive interview, and hope to have a pleasant cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Although he had already made psychological preparations in advance, Yan Qiu was still a little embarrassed to face the camera.

Tao Yu saw his nervousness, and was not in a hurry to interview. Instead, he chatted with him first to help him relax.

"Teacher Yan, I actually have a question that I want to ask you in private."

"Tell me." Yan Qiu quickly replied.

"As far as I know, many media wanted to interview you before, but you refused them all. Why did you choose us in the end?"

In fact, before coming here, Yan Qiu also thought that he would ask this question, and had already prepared the answer.

But at this moment, he suddenly couldn't speak.

He didn't know if he should tell the real reason?

In fact, he secretly hoped that Tao Yu would know what Lin Jin wanted, but after all, Tao Yu was getting married, and Yan Qiu was afraid of causing him any trouble, so he didn't say anything in the end.

"I like your style very much." Yan Qiu gave a polite answer.

Tao Yu could also hear his perfunctory, so he didn't pursue this question any further.

Tao Yu looks young, but his professional ability should not be underestimated.

The questions raised during the interview were very precise and sharp, but the way of discussion was soft and did not make people feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, there was no embarrassment as Yan Qiu imagined, and the two ended the interview happily.

After the end, Tao Yu added Yan Qiu's WeChat.

Yan Qiu clicked on his WeChat. The profile picture was a hand-drawn cartoon. A quiet forest was sleeping under the high moon. Next to the forest was a small stream with a small blue fish swimming in the stream.

A very cute painting, very consistent with his overall style.

"Teacher Yan, after the program is finished, I will send it to you first."

"Okay." Yan Qiu replied immediately.

After Tao Yu left, Yan Qiu clicked on his circle of friends.

Unexpectedly, there was nothing in it, it was empty.

Yan Qiu looked at it and found that it was not set to be visible for three days, so he didn't post to Moments at all?

But generally good things are coming, even people who don't like to share their lives on weekdays will symbolically post photos of their engagement and marriage.

Did he add his work number?

Yan Qiu couldn't figure it out.

But he didn't think too much, after all, his task was to agree to Tao Yu's exclusive interview, and he could only resign himself to the rest.

After Tao Yu's exclusive interview, Yan Qiu completely cut off contact with the outside world.

Apart from taking care of the master and carving things in the ancestral house every day, the rest of the time is spent with Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was afraid that he would get bored if he was always bored in the room like this, so after finishing the work at hand, he proposed to go on a trip for a while.

Yan Qiu naturally had no objection, but asked curiously, "Where are you going?"

Li Zhi seemed to have already thought about the place, and replied, "Iceland."

Yan Qiu has never been abroad at this age, not to mention that this is the first trip with Li Zhi, so he attaches great importance to it. He spent several days picking and choosing in the house before departure, and packed a large box.luggage.

Together they went to Hallgrim Church in central Reykjavik, visited the ancient volcano Srinukaki, and went to the National Museum of Iceland.

The last stop is the Northern Lights Centre.

They arrive in late August, when the night really returns to Iceland and the aurora begins to appear.

Because they had to stay up late to wait for the aurora, they had a full sleep during the day and came to the Northern Lights Center together at night to wait for the aurora to appear.

In fact, the possibility of waiting for the aurora to appear in August is not high, and you have to stay up all night waiting, but Yan Qiu doesn't feel bored.

Because Li Zhi was by his side, even such a long and boring wait became a kind of happiness.

"What are you thinking?" Both of them were wearing thick clothes, Li Zhi seemed to be afraid that he would be cold, so he took his hand and put it in his pocket together.

Yan Qiu was staring at the indigo blue sky in a daze, but only then came to his senses after hearing this.

Looking at the endless sky, he suddenly hooked the corners of his lips, and said with emotion: "I'm thinking that things in the world are really impermanent."

Compared with the previous life, everything in this life is like a dream.

Therefore, whenever he feels that he is about to be dazzled by happiness, he can't help but fall into doubt, and then force himself to prove himself.

It proves that everything today is real, not a dream that Yan Qiu, who was dying in the last life, wove for himself before his death.

"I'm thinking... How can I be so happy, it's already a little unreal."

"Stupid words." Li Zhi said, pinching his fingers, like a small punishment.

"I'm telling the truth." Yan Qiu looked up at the sky, and scenes from the past reappeared before his eyes.

"In the past, I was inferior and depressed. I didn't have any expectations for the future. I couldn't imagine what my future would look like, because I felt that I had no future at all."

Li had read Yan Qiu's profile and knew what kind of past he had.

He didn't dare to read all those materials, not to mention that Yan Qiu had personally experienced them all. Just thinking about this made Li Zhi feel a little pain in his heart.

But no matter how powerful he is, he can't change what has happened. He can only keep everything in his heart and make up for what Yan Qiu didn't get.

"It's all over." Li Zhi was afraid that he would be sad because he thought too much, and wanted to expose this topic.

"Yes, it's all over." Yan Qiu said, turning his head to look at him, "Actually, there were many times when I couldn't bear it any longer, and felt that this world was so long and boring, but when I thought of having you in the future, I seemed to start over again.Looking forward to it a bit more.”

"Because of you and I started to wonder, wonder if we will grow old together? Curious about what the world will look like in a few decades, and then I started to get scared."

"afraid of what?"

"It's strange to be afraid that the world after decades will have nothing to do with me, right? I obviously don't love this world, but I'm afraid of losing contact with it."

"It's not surprising." Li Zhi said, looking at the empty sky with him, as time passed, the night became darker and darker, the indigo sky was full of stars, and the nebula circled around,Like a meandering river flowing.

"This world has nothing to do with most people, but we can witness the future together."

Yan Qiu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then laughed, "Okay, let's witness the future together."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard an exclamation from the side.

Yan Qiu raised his head, and then saw large expanses of green, like paint that had been accidentally knocked down, instantly filling the entire sky.

The green eyes just crashed into his eyes.

The sky was dumb and low, and the green aurora was like flowing water, flowing straight to the ground.

Yan Qiu stood where he was, and at this moment, he suddenly felt the vastness of the universe.

While he was greedily watching the magnificent scene in front of him, he suddenly felt his fingers itching slightly, and it was Li Zhi who was gently rubbing his fingers.

Yan Qiu turned his head, and then saw Li Zhi taking out a red velvet ring box reflecting the aurora all over the sky.

Inside is a diamond ring. The huge diamond is carved in the shape of a lisianthus flower, which still emits a dazzling light in such a dark night.

Yan Qiu was taken aback, a little confused, "You sent me off."

"It's different." Li Zhi took the ring out of the ring box, and then said, "The ring from last time means that you are in love."

"What about this time?"

"Proposal."

As Li Zhi said, one knee was slightly bent, and he solemnly knelt down in front of him, holding the ring in one hand and holding his finger with the other hand.

Then he raised his eyes to Yan Qiu and said, "I never lose my word, so Xiao Qiu, are you willing to be with me forever?"

Yan Qiu looked down at him, subconsciously bit his lower lip with his teeth, and soon tasted a faint smell of blood in his mouth, it hurt so much, it wasn't a dream.

Under the ancient and eternal aurora, Li Zhi made a lifetime vow to him.

At this moment, all the past, all concerns, all prejudices and obstacles are so insignificant.

He suddenly wanted to go on slowly with Li Zhi, to see the future together in this world that has nothing to do with them.

So this time he answered without hesitation.

"I would," he said.

A wandering ship will eventually find a harbor, and lonely souls will finally be together.

They are never separated.
