After paying the bill, Qin Zhi 'ai didn't ask him to take her home. Instead, she got off at the subway station near the hotel.
It was only 8: 30 p.m., and the bustling city was still bustling with noise and excitement.
It was early spring in Beijing, and the winter jasmine flowers on both sides of the street were in full bloom. Gusts of spring wind blew in, bringing with it an elegant fragrance.
During dinner, Qin Zhi 'ai, whose mood had been disturbed by Lu Bancheng's words, stood at the entrance of the subway station for a while. Instead of going in, she picked up her bag and walked slowly along the street aimlessly.
She put on flat shoes and stopped from time to time, but she didn't feel tired. Before she knew it, she had spent more than half an hour walking.
When Qin Zhi 'ai noticed her surroundings, she realized that she had unknowingly walked to the hospital where Old Master Gu was staying.
The entrance of the hospital was about 100 feet away.
Opposite the hospital was a row of shops that sold all kinds of things.
Although it was already 9: 00 p.m., most of the shops were still open.
Qin Zhi 'ai stopped and stared at the entrance of the hospital quietly for a while. When she withdrew her gaze and was about to turn around to leave, a familiar figure came into her view.
She was stunned at first, but then she came back to her senses. Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, Gu Yusheng, who was lighting a cigarette not far away, seemed to sense something and suddenly raised his head to look at her.
The movement of his fingertips suddenly froze.
Qin Zhi 'ai's heart skipped a beat, and she also froze in place.
The two of them quietly stared at each other through the heavy traffic and the vast crowd.
The noisy noises around them were instantly cut off and pulled far away from them.
She didn't know how long they stared at each other until she heard a sharp honking sound. Qin Zhi 'ai blinked her eyes, which had become sore from staring for a long time.
Gu Yusheng, who had been leaning against the telephone pole, stood up, took the unlit cigarette out of his mouth, and walked toward Qin Zhi 'ai.
As he approached her step by step, Qin Zhi 'ai became a little dazed. She didn't wake up until he stopped about two meters away from her and called her name. "Qin Zhi' ai."
That night, Qin Zhi 'ai had learned so many things in just two or three hours. Her mood had fluctuated so much that she was a little flustered when Gu Yusheng suddenly appeared in front of her. After a while, she calmed down and replied, "Master Gu."
Gu Yusheng looked down at the cigarette between his fingers. It had been pinched so hard that he couldn't smoke it anymore. He threw it into the trash can beside him and looked up at Qin Zhi 'ai. He nodded and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I happened to pass by …" Qin Zhi 'ai paused and asked, "… How is Old Master Gu now?"
Gu Yusheng shook his head and didn't answer.
Qin Zhi 'ai could tell that Old Master Gu hadn't woken up yet. She comforted him by saying, "Old Master Gu will definitely wake up. Don't worry too much."
Gu Yusheng glanced at Qin Zhi 'ai but still didn't answer.
Qin Zhi 'ai didn't know what to say, and the two of them fell into silence.
Finally, it was Gu Yusheng who spoke first. "Tomorrow's flight?"
