Chapter 10 Happiness will eventually fill the gap 03
The next morning, Lin Mobai woke up from her dream and was about to get up from her quilt to go to the bathroom, but she found something in her hand. Then, she opened her hand inexplicably and saw two yellow iris-shaped hairpins.
My heart was startled.
Lin Mobai remembered that this hairpin was given to her and Shi Xujun by Ding Zhiyou when they were young. Each of the three of them received one, symbolizing long-lasting friendship.
However, when Ding Zhiyou passed away, she had already kept the hairpins she owned. Therefore, the two hairpins in front of us should belong to Ding Zhiyou and Shi Xujun.
Thinking about it, and realizing that it was Shi Xujun who gave her the hairpin, Lin Mobai immediately got up and ran out of the ward.
However, there was no one in the silent corridor, let alone Shi Xujun.
Lin Mobai let out a sigh of loss and turned back to his room. But the next second, a bunch of yellow irises in his peripheral vision instantly caught his attention.
Lin Mobai stepped forward immediately. There seemed to be a faint scent of irises in the air.
She couldn't help smiling, and became more and more certain that the bunch of yellow irises in the vase was brought by Shi Xujun, and her heart was also happy for Shi Xujun's concern.
However, just as she took a deep breath and wanted to smell the flowers carefully, she saw the letter .
——To Mo Bai.
Lin Mobai recognized these three simple words in a beautiful font immediately. They were Shi Xujun's handwriting.
Inexplicably, the joy in his heart suddenly diminished by more than half, as if he could smell the sadness hidden in the air. Lin Mobai frowned slightly, slowly picked up the letter and opened it——
Silent:
Seeing that you are well, I feel a lot more relieved.
In fact, I never thought that I would almost hurt you... I just wanted to teach you a lesson, just wanted to make you suffer a little, but when I left that small bungalow, I didn't feel any better, especially when Qingkong yelled at me and said that I had claustrophobia, I was really panicked and scared.
Fortunately, you are unharmed now.
You may not know, but I have always felt that you took away everything from me, from Youyou in the past to Qingkong later. Now that I think about it, it is really ridiculous. In fact, there is nothing that belongs to me, so there is no such thing as stealing. However, I have never realized this, and I have always resented and envied you, so I did stupid things.
I no longer have the ability to face you again, but of course, you still occupy an irreplaceable position in my heart.
But I am leaving. I am going to go a longer way and become a better person. I will no longer be jealous easily and will no longer feel resentful for no reason.
Mo Bai, I'm sorry! I've always owed you this sentence, and now I'm returning it to you.
…
After reading the apology letter, Lin Mobai's eyes were already wet.
Then, as if she remembered something , she quickly found the phone that He Qingkong had asked back from Shi Xujun and called Shi Xujun, but no one answered the phone. So, tears could not stop flowing out of her eyes and wet her face.
After a moment, there was a knock on the door and Lin Mobai quickly wiped away his tears.
After calming down, she turned around and smiled at her mother and He Qingkong who came in. They were here to pick her up from the hospital. Lin Mobai had already contacted Ding's mother, and after she was discharged from the hospital, she immediately went to the police station to record her statement and identify the murderer.
Afterwards, when he recounted the details of what happened in the police station again, Lin Mobai was no longer in a state of collapse.
Because she was forgiven by her best friends and because she was determined to bring the murderer to justice, she behaved very well throughout the whole process.
It was not until later, when she went to court as the only eyewitness and heard the judge pronounce the suspect guilty, that she could no longer hold back her tears.
All the grief was put aside with the end of the case, but everyone knew that Ding Zhiyou would always live in their hearts.
For Lin Mobai, because she finally got justice for Ding Zhiyou, she also had the courage to face Ding's father and mother. Therefore, after leaving the court, Lin Mobai took the initiative to catch up with Ding's father and mother, then bowed to them seriously and begged: "Uncle and aunt, although I have said sorry many times, I still want to say it again. I'm sorry, uncle and aunt, if I was brave enough back then, maybe Youyou wouldn't..."
"Forget it, let's not talk about it..." When talking about Ding Zhiyou, Ding's mother couldn't help but reveal a sad expression.
"Uncle and aunt, I know I can't replace Youyou, but can I take care of you on your behalf?" Seeing that Dad and Mom Ding were about to leave, Lin Mobai quickly reached out and grabbed Mom Ding's hand, and said carefully.
Mr. and Mrs. Ding were stunned when they heard this.
Looking at Lin Mobai in front of him, the sadness in his heart couldn't help but overflow.
Seeing the grief in the two people's eyes, Lin Mobai silently lowered his head, retracted his hand, and apologized: "I'm sorry..."
"Come over to our house when you have time." Just when she thought they were going to refuse, Father Ding spoke up, "Your Grandpa Ding wants to see you, too."
Hearing this, Lin Mobai looked up in surprise. After a moment of stunned silence , he immediately nodded repeatedly: "Okay!"
…
Everything came to an end, but Lin Mobai and He Qingkong's love remained as strong as ever.
In addition to his own courses, He Qingkong always took the opportunity to come to F University, pretending to be Lin Mobai's classmate and taking classes with her. On several occasions, because a boy showed interest in Lin Mobai, the jealous He Qingkong shamelessly pestered her, and even frequently showed affection and asserted his sovereignty.
After letting go of Ding Zhiyou's obsession, Lu Yanqi became much friendlier towards Lin Mobai and would visit the Art Department from time to time.
But he didn't expect that after seeing Lu Yanqi's frequent visits, He Qingkong became jealous and finally couldn't help asking him, "Are you going to pursue Xiaobai?"
Hearing this, Lu Yanqi was shocked and almost spit out the water in his mouth: "How is it possible?"
He Qingkong still looked at him suspiciously: "Then why do you come to see her so often?"
"I'm here to look for Zhou Shiqing!"
"What do you want with her?"
"Can't I chase her?"
After the impulse, Lu Yanqi realized that he had accidentally revealed his thoughts. So, he was embarrassed and his face turned red.
The next second, after being stunned, He Qingkong ran away screaming: "I'm going to tell Xiaobai!"
So, Lu Yanqi, who realized it later, immediately caught up with him: "Hey! He Qingkong!"
At this time, Lin Mobai was chatting with Lin's mother. On the phone, Lin's mother told her that the family had received a postcard from Shi Xujun who went to study in France.
After hearing what Lin's mother said, Lin Mobai smiled with relief.
When he looked up, He Qingkong was running towards him from afar. The afternoon sun was shining brightly in his sight, and the smile on Lin Mo's face became even brighter.
Things that he once thought he had lost, things that he once thought he would lose, were all still tightly held in his hands. At this moment, Lin Mobai felt very happy.
