The heavy snow was still flying above Robben and I, and the whole world became extremely transparent, as if we could see the taxi at the end of the street at a glance, and finally the falling snowflakes turned white, and we were still gasping.

I covered my hand in my chest, and my throat seemed to be on fire. I said to Robben with pain: "I can't catch up with this...!"

Robben was not much better than me. He gasped, but his face was blank. He stared at the desolate world quietly. He suddenly sat on the ground with a weak qi. The heavy snow in the sky also became a burden on him. A few snowflakes fell on his beard that had been growing recently, as if he had crushed him.

At this moment, a taxi finally drove past us. I reached out and stopped him, and said to Robben, "Look for it, maybe I can meet her."

"Forget it...she really wants to meet us. Since she is here, at least she needs to contact you Zhaoyang...I'm almost forgot, she's already married!" Robben said as he laughed, and then became sad as he smiled.

He wiped off the snowflakes that fell on the stubble and eyebrows.

I finally replied: "Just get married. Anyway, the woman you love the most in your life is Wei Manwen, and she has never been."

Robben looked up at me...

I pulled him up from the ground, stuffed him into the taxi, and said to the driver, "Master, drive forward and wait for me to stop."

The driver nodded, turned to look at Robben and asked, "What's wrong with this young man?... His face was so scary!"

"It's okay, he's just a little sad donkey... Master, hurry up and let's find someone."

......

The car was driving on the white road in a very unclear way, the road became wider and wider, and the whole world became more and more lonely in the pure white that could not be seen. I even suspected that Robben had taken a look. In such a monotonous city, this woman was as colorful as fireworks.

Robben's sad donkey finally spoke, but said to the driver: "Master, drive the car to Tongjing North Road."

I suddenly asked Robben, "Have you gone to the restaurant in the empty city?"

"She will definitely go there when she returns to Suzhou, where she has half her youth."

I nodded and used the most beautiful half of my youth to love this man named Robben, but I missed it after all. I feel so sorry because she has tried her best, and Robben should not be criticized, but fate has fooled people.

The car quickly took Luo Ben and I to Tongjing North Road. We got off the street to the "Empty City Restaurant", then walked past the alley without street lights and came to the door of the restaurant. We found that the restaurant, which had passed the meal time, was crowded with people. Therefore, we couldn't see who was standing on the surrounded performance stage, but we knew in our hearts that she was the soul of this restaurant, no matter how long she had left!

Robben and I pushed open the door and entered the restaurant, then stood in the crowd and looked at the woman singing for everyone on the stage. She didn't have a guitar, but just snapped her fingers and sang the song "The World of Lies" written by Robben...

"The world floats away from the sea, and it floats into tears... Tonight, where is my hometown... I have a home called talking to myself, I have a room filled with her sorrow...!"

cc's magnetic voice sang a hint of sadness. Her eyes were a little wet, but finally ended the song with a smile. Then she folded her hands and expressed her gratitude to everyone present. Many of them were old customers in the empty city for many years. They were like us, the boss lady who sometimes loves to laugh and sometimes feels sad and doesn't want to say a word.

"Miss cc boss, let's sing a song for us. It's really too long, too long, I haven't heard your voice... Seeing you again today is like going back to those days in the past... This feeling is really unspeakable, it's really good!"

cc smiled and wanted to meet everyone's requirements. The store manager brought it out was unwilling to let her sing again no matter what. The store manager said: "Sister cc, don't sing again. You are 7 months pregnant, so be careful of your fetal anger!"

cc looked at the people who were still waiting a little sorry. After being reminded by the store manager, everyone showed full understanding and chatted, caring about where she went and life after she left, and congratulating her on getting married and becoming a expectant mother.

This scene made Robben lower his head. I saw in him that meeting was more than missing him. Then, he turned around silently and left this "empty city" without everyone's awareness. I did not keep up with him. All I had was the relationship between brothers and sisters, and I really missed her. Of course, I did not stop Robben from leaving. This is his right!

I finally squeezed away the crowd and then looked at her clearly. Although she was wearing a loose black coat, she still couldn't cover her bulging belly. She was really pregnant...

I looked at her and smiled. She looked at me and she burst into tears. In the end, I couldn't hold back. In the public eye, the man's tears flowed down. I hugged her into my arms again and said with a sob: "I haven't seen you for too long... You have looked very good!"

"Well...I'm very happy now, what about you? Are you okay?... And Mi'er, is she okay?"

When CC asked Mi Cai, I felt so sad that I didn't want to treat this place as a place to speak, so I left my arms without saying a word. She and everyone signaled that she was leaving, and then pulled me out of the "Empty City" restaurant.

......

We found a milk tea shop nearby, and finally there was room for us to talk to. She asked me, "Why did you remember to come to the restaurant in the empty city today?"

"It was Robben who saw you sitting in a taxi on the road, and we chased him to the restaurant...but then he left!"

Maybe this is the past year when she mentioned the name Robben in front of her, her face was full of complexity, but her face seemed to be the expression that everyone is best at using after so many years. She smiled and said, "Is Robben okay?..... It should have been married to Teacher Wei, right?"

"No, they are not married!"

cc's expression was full of surprise, and she asked, "What's wrong, why aren't you married?"

"Teacher Wei returned to that small mountain village and later married Zhou Hang, who is the doctor in that small town. You should have a reflection of him."

"This!..." cc only said the word "this" and raised his head. She didn't let the tears rolling in her eyes fall. Of course I knew what she was thinking, but I missed some feelings, just missed them... I know these better than me, otherwise how could she make up her mind to get married and have children?

I tried to change the subject and asked her, "Where are you? How are you doing this year?"

cc put his hand on his nose, she wiped away her tears, and said to me with a smile: "It's great, didn't I send you a message last time?...I said that I met the right person on the way to the trip, and now I'm married...I'm actually quite happy!"

"So you plan to go back to Suzhou to have a look?"

"I didn't come to Suzhou on purpose... The child in my belly is about to be born in a few months. The medical conditions in Shanghai are relatively better, so my mother-in-law accompanied me to Shanghai for delivery... However, it started snowing this afternoon, which reminded me of the day I left Suzhou, so I couldn't help but come back to take a look... It seems that it is still the same here, but so much has happened!"

"Um."

"Where are you, you and Mi'er should be married, right?"

I turned my head to look at the snow-white world outside the window, including Fang Yuan's betrayal, Jian Wei's serious injury, and Mi Cai's departure from the United States...

cc listened calmly to me and finished all the thrilling things, but at the moment I finished speaking, a sad expression appeared on my face, so sad that I don’t know how to view our year.

At this time, it was obvious how correct she chose to leave. I am afraid no one was living a less burden than her year. I can see that her current life does not involve sentimentality, only the ease after forgetting and giving up... Maybe, she is a role model for all of us, because sometimes giving up really requires more courage than pursuing, but she did it, although it was a little regretful.

She finally asked me: "Did you really decide to wait for Mi'er to come back without a deadline?"

"Wait, if I don't wait, then will the agreement between us become a lie?"

"Well... I'm happy for Mier for your persistence."

I looked at her and then fell into a brief silence. It seemed that after experiencing the gap of this year, there were a lot less words between us. I thought: this should be the case, because I can no longer talk to her about Robben, and she was also worried that talking about Mi Cai would arouse my sadness, so that the topic between us would inevitably be much less.

It was already dark, and the pregnant woman stayed up late with me. I sent her to a nearby hotel and hoped that she would not rush back to Shanghai tomorrow. After agreeing to me, I felt that she would not leave my world again so quickly. In fact, I really had too many words and too many emotions to say to her.

......

Late at night after returning home, I habitually turned on my phone to browse financial news from the United States. This time, after a few months, I finally saw the message of Mi Cai’s return again, and it was an explosive message...
