    By the time Xie Yao realized what he was doing, he was already standing on the corner of the agreed street, waiting quietly for someone.

    After Zhou Qiming answered the phone, he simply told himself that there was something important to discuss in person, and then he said the agreed place, and after a few vague words, he hung up the phone.

    In fact, at the beginning, Xie Yao didn't really want to go to the appointment, but in the end he couldn't resist the temptation of curiosity, so at two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was shining most violently, he held a parasol and leaned against theWaiting for people on the side.

    Just when Xie Yao was in his spare time, thinking wildly, maybe it was just a prank or Zhou Qiming's nonsense that he didn't wake up, and other speculations, the other party rushed over.

    In the hot summer, just standing outside for an extra minute will cause hot sweat, but Zhou Qiming still wears a pair of brown sunglasses and a black mask to cover his face tightly.

    For some reason, Xie Yao inexplicably felt that the two of them seemed to be doing some shady deal, such as having an affair. Of course, this idea was too outrageous, and Xie Yao quickly dismissed it.

    "The way here was a bit congested, so it was delayed." When Zhou Qiming arrived, he saw the people waiting for him standing on the street at a glance. Compared with himself, Xie Yao was dressed much more refreshingly.Zhou Qiming walked to his side and explained to him.

    "It's okay," Xie Yao didn't care too much, he withdrew his unrestrained thoughts, "So, what must be said in person?"

    Zhou Qiming looked at him wearing sunglasses, of course because Xie Yao was not sure whether the other party was really looking at him through the sunglasses.

    Immediately afterwards, Xie Yao heard that Zhou Qiming changed the subject unnaturally: "Is it hot?"

    "fine……"

    "It's a bit hot, let's go in and talk about it." Before Xie Yao finished speaking, Zhou Qiming took Xie Yao and led him into the shopping mall.

    His movements were so natural that Xie Yao was pulled in without even reacting.

    The place Zhou Qiming agreed to be in is quite special. Although it is a shopping mall, it has a membership system. You must show your membership card when entering and leaving. The conditions for becoming a member are extremely strict, and the number of places is limited.People who don't want to host.

    It is indeed a very snobbish approach. There are many people on the Internet complaining about the wealthy people in this mall, but the mall is still crowded with people. Many people even look for second-hand or rental cards online in order to become members here.

    Xie Yao couldn't remember the last time he came to this shopping mall. Fortunately, he found a membership card that he hadn't used for a long time before going out. If he didn't find it, the two of them might be forced to meet in another place..

    With Zhou Qiming's current fame, there are relatively few and slightly restricted places to change people. Apart from his own home, it is probably his home.

    It's hard to say near Zhou Qiming's house, and I don't know if there are any paparazzi staying near his house. As for his own house, Xie Yao doesn't want this person to run to his house either.

    After the two entered the shopping mall, Xie Yao wanted to speak again to bring the topic back on track, but Zhou Qiming told him tactfully that he hadn't eaten and was rushing here, so he was a little hungry now, and the meaning of what he said was very clear..

    Xie Yao was silent for a few seconds, but decided to politely care, then turned around and asked the person beside him if he wanted to eat first.

    When Zhou Qiming heard this, he was really not polite to him at all. When he regained consciousness again, the two of them were already sitting in a box in a restaurant.Xie Yao had eaten before coming, so he didn't have much appetite, so he just ordered a drink.

    After finishing all this, Xie Yao quietly held his chin and looked at the person sitting opposite him ordering food. Zhou Qiming didn't take off his sunglasses and mask until after ordering.

    Almost at the same time, as soon as Zhou Qiming raised his eyes to look at him, he heard Xie Yao ask himself, "So you asked me to come, what's the matter?"

    If Zhou Qiming told Xie Yao that he only asked him to have a meal with him, it would be difficult for Xie Yao to guarantee whether the tea in his hand would spill on Zhou Qiming.

    Seeing that he couldn't escape this topic, Zhou Qiming finally didn't go around in circles. He seemed to be struggling with his own thoughts for a few seconds, then gave up directly, and said bluntly: "Tomorrow... I'm leaving Changyuan."

    After saying this, Zhou Qiming looked at him, but the other party didn't seem to be surprised at all, and he didn't even want to ask anything.

    For example, where to go, how long to go, when to come back.

    These words, in the past, Xie Yao would always ask him over and over again before he left, even though he was often perfunctory.

    The whole situation became silent again because of Xie Yao's indifference. Xie Yao probably sensed Zhou Qiming's intention of waiting for him to ask further questions, so he asked cooperatively: "And then?"

    Zhou Qiming seemed a little dissatisfied when he didn't hear the expected answer, but he didn't show it, he just observed Xie Yao's reaction, and then explained: "I'm going to Mohe City to make a movie, suspenseful."

    "It's pretty good." Xie Yao agreed, no matter what he listened to or how perfunctory.Zhou Qiming was a little dissatisfied and was about to complain, but someone knocked on the door of the room. Outside the door was a waiter carrying Xie Yao's drink and his own lunch.

    The waiter here can basically abide by it and not pay attention to anything that happens inside. He served the dishes dutifully, then said "the dishes are ready", and then left quickly without taking a second look inside.up.

    Xie Yao picked up the cup, put it in front of him, and took a sip of the drink inside with a straw. It was sweet and sour, with a little ice.After he finished all this, he looked at Zhou Qiming again, waiting for the other party's next sentence.

    I don't know why, seeing Zhou Qiming's forbearance, Xie Yao actually had some fun.

    Xie Yao took a look at the person who was going to have an attack and withdrew his emotions, so he ignored Xie Yao's attitude, and then said as if reporting work: "I guess it will take half a year, and I should be back in the New Year."

    Xie Yao nodded after listening, but didn't ask anything.Zhou Qiming didn't go any further. He could see that Xie Yao didn't particularly care about his future work, but he just wanted to explain to him for no reason.

    After all, weren't they also like this in the past, it's just that Xie Yao took the initiative to ask about his itinerary in the past, but this time Xie Yao didn't ask.

    Don't ask if you don't ask, it's nothing, anyway, it's the same if you take the initiative to say it, anyway, isn't your concern for Xie Yao before, isn't it also very perfunctory?Zhou Qiming thought about it not in a bad way, but it was more like a kind of self-comfort.

    After eating, Xie Yao wanted to bid farewell to Zhou Qiming at the entrance of the restaurant. In fact, he had already seen that Zhou Qiming didn't really have anything important to tell him, but simply wanted to ask him out to meet him.

    As for why he had to meet this side, Xie Yao didn't understand, or maybe he really wanted to say something, but after seeing him, he probably didn't have the desire to say it.

    Xie Yao guessed what the other party was thinking in his heart, but he didn't take the initiative to ask because it was unnecessary.

    After the two parted for a week, Xie Yao quickly calmed down again. He recalled all the process of getting along with the two of them in the crew, and recalled all the details and getting along with each other again like a replay.Criticized again.

    But in the end, Xie Yao accepted his attitude and choice frankly.

    What he wants to do is never to crusade against Zhou Qiming or scold him severely. Of course, he also had such an idea before, in a very naive way, but also in the simplest way.

    But this way, in the final analysis, can only help him vent his emotions, other than that, Xie Yao can't help his mentality in any way.

    Xie Yao thought for a long time before he realized that all along, what he really needed to do was to try to reconcile with himself.

    He did end up not very well in his last life, but there were also his own factors in it, and Xie Yao couldn't deceive himself about this.

    For so long, he has been admonishing himself to keep a distance from Zhou Qiming and to fade out of each other's life, but this non-stop brainwashing and talking to himself, apart from providing some psychological comfort, what's the use?

    Then if you don't avoid it deliberately, what if you face it calmly and get along with Zhou Qiming?

    In dealing with Zhou Qiming, Xie Yao seemed to be doing a very important experiment, using different methods to explore and study what he should do in order to really pull himself out of that vicious circle.

    So today's appointment is partly due to his recent thoughts.

    When Xie Yao faced up to his heart and met Zhou Qiming again, he obviously felt that his mood and emotions had stabilized a lot. He thought this was a good start.

    Of course, he didn't expect to have too much contact, but there is always a time when he can't avoid it, just like the two of them have collaborated in a new movie, and there will always be similar promotional activities to contact.At that time, how should he face it.

    How will the awkward relationship between two people be spread by the media?Xie Yao didn't know, but what he knew was that the reason why he felt awkward before and wanted to instinctively avoid getting along with the two of them was in the final analysis because he put Zhou Qiming in a special position.

    But this is wrong, if you want to really end, you shouldn't put the other party in any position.

    "Would you like to go shopping?" After a long time, Xie Yao heard the people around him asking himself this question, he withdrew his thoughts, looked at the people beside him, and did not answer.

    Then what if Zhou Qiming kept breaking into him while he was constantly exploring the path of reconciliation with himself?

    Then what should I do?Xie Yao asked himself in his heart.

    But he didn't get too entangled, because Zhou Qiming was the biggest uncertain factor on his way to reconcile with himself.

    In the end, Xie Yao still did not refuse Zhou Qiming's invitation, since he has already come out, it doesn't hurt to take a stroll.

    The two wandered aimlessly, and finally wandered into a very unique store, which also had a plant section.

    They walked one after the other, like two strangers, or like unfamiliar friends, approaching from time to time, but keeping a certain distance.

    After Xie Yao entered the store, his eyes kept wandering around, and as he walked, he came to the plant area.Then, he noticed the neatly arranged potted plants. He stepped forward and couldn't help but reached out and picked up a pot of succulents to have a look.

    But after a while, Xie Yao put it down again, and then walked to the place ahead, but this time, Zhou Qiming did not follow his footsteps, but picked up the potted plant that Xie Yao had just put down, thought for a while,In the end, when Xie Yao wasn't paying attention, he took it to the checkout counter.

    When the two came out of the store, Xie Yao saw an extra packaging bag in the other's hand, and he didn't quite see what was in it.

    "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Xie Yao thought for a while, then turned his head and said to the people beside him.

    "When did you learn the piano?" Zhou Qiming stood beside him, and suddenly said a word without beginning or end.

    Xie Yao didn't know how the other party changed to this topic, but he didn't intend to hide it, so he said truthfully: "I started to learn it when I was young."

    "Really?" Zhou Qiming seemed a little confused, then smiled lightly, and said inexplicably, "I never knew."

    Xie Yao didn't know how to answer this sentence, he couldn't figure out what Zhou Qiming was thinking.But some things, whether you know it or not, don't seem to be that important.

    "Zhou Qiming, it's normal not to know," Xie Yao said slowly. He looked into the distance and looked at the vehicles passing by on the road, as if talking to himself, "Maybe you don't know me, or you haven't paid attention to me.Me, so you don't know."

    Zhou Qiming opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute, but before he could say it, he heard Xie Yao continue to say: "Actually, it doesn't make any sense for us to discuss these things now, just like I can play the piano. Obviously you haveThere are many ways to know, but you never know, and to put it bluntly, you don’t care enough.”

    "And I am the same," Xie Yao paused, as if a little tired, he sighed softly, turned his head and looked at the person beside him again with complicated eyes, "I thought I knew you very well, so I gave youA lot of things you didn't want, I can't deny that... so in a way, we're all equally selfish."

    "Xie Yao..." Zhou Qiming opened his mouth to deny it, but before he could say anything more, he heard Xie Yao say to him, I should go.

    Xie Yao left step by step without looking back, Zhou Qiming didn't even have time to stop him, and finally could only watch the other party disappear bit by bit on the busy street, disappearing from his sight.

    Zhou Qiming squeezed the bag tightly in his hand, feeling complicated, playing back and forth the few words Xie Yao just said to himself in his mind, but felt that what Xie Yao said hit the nail on the head, after all, it was the truth.

    Don't care enough?That's true, whether it's deliberately avoiding it, or really not noticing it, isn't it a way to escape.
