Chapter 158 legacy
I hope there will always be “a city” waiting for you in your life.
The next morning, Zhou Yi went out with Mu Qinglin, had breakfast at Provincial Taiwan, and hurried to “this city”.
“The City” is open from nine in the morning to eleven in the evening.
When Zhou Yi arrived, there was still a “Closed” sign on the door, so she sat down on the steps of the door, took out the tablet computer Mu Qinglin gave from her bag, and immersed herself in drawing.
She didn’t know where the idea came from. In the morning, she leaned against the door of the study and waited for Mu Qinglin to go out, and asked her out of nowhere, “Yanyan, can you lend me your tablet for a few days?”
Mu Qinglin didn’t ask the reason, and stuffed it into her backpack without any hassle, and just took it out to pass the time.
Zhou Yi opens the drawing software, and the pen is the endless sky on the grassland, the people running there and the animals living there.
Every object and scene seemed to have been engraved in her mind, and she didn’t even need to look for structural lines, the picture had already begun to become detailed and vivid.
About half an hour passed, and Li Cuo, who had the longest seniority in the shop—who had been following Su Ye since the shop opened— walked over quickly and said, “When did you come here?”
Zhou Yi turned sideways to make way for Li Cuo, without looking up, “I don’t know…”
Li Cuo opened the door, leaned over to look at the painting that Zhou Yi had almost finished, and asked, “Where is this?”
Zhou Yi clicked save, pulled the bag, put the tablet in, stood up and said, “It’s far away…”
Li Cuo glanced at Zhou Yi, did not speak, went into the store with her to change his uniform, then took out the card that had been in the cabinet for several days, handed it to her and said, “The boss gave it to you.”
Zhou Yi was tying his hair, when he heard this, he turned his head and glanced, “What?”
Li Cuo said: “The boss has left, and it should be her explanation to you.”
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, quickly pulled his ponytail tightly, and while going to pick up the card, he asked, “What does it mean that the boss is gone?”
Li Cuo, “The boss said that some people can’t wait and forget, so they can only find a way to find them.”
Zhou Yi frowned, and suddenly remembered the conversation with Su Ye the day he went to the southwest, “You like women too?”
“I don’t remember. I have been waiting for her in this city for many years. After waiting for a long time, sometimes I forget the original purpose.”
“People are too forgetful.”
“What can be easily forgotten must not be true love.”
Before leaving, Su also said that she was enlightened, meaning to leave this city to find that woman?
Is there really such a person?
Zhou Yi asked: “Does the boss have someone in mind?”
Surprise flashed in Li Cuo’s eyes, and he quickly calmed down, saying: “The boss fell in love with a woman in his early twenties. She was a doctor. She was funny and humorous. She could handle the boss’s strange temper to death. The two fell in love very much. Later …”
Li Cuo paused for a few seconds, then suddenly lowered his voice, “The incidence of congenital heart disease and plateau heart disease in Southwest China is much higher than that in ordinary areas. The hospital where the doctor works will send a medical team to give free consultations every year, and the doctor will follow him every year. very familiar.
Maybe it was because of the familiarity. She heard that there was an old man with limited mobility in the mountain who often had chest pains, so she took the initiative to apply to go and have a look. However, she encountered a blizzard halfway, lost her way, and never came back. ”
Zhou Yi was startled, “Boss knows?”
Li Cuo said, “I know, she claimed the body.”
“Then she…” Zhou Yi hesitated to speak for a moment before saying, “What are you waiting for?”
Li Cuo, “Wait for an obsession that can support me to live. The doctor saves lives and heals the wounded all his life. The boss is afraid that she will be angry and dare not die, so he can only try to lie to himself.”
Zhou Yi didn’t ask any more questions, his heart was shaking silently.
The first time she saw Su, she knew she had a story, but she never expected such a tragic story.
When Li Cuo left, Zhou Yi turned and leaned against the cabinet, and opened the card that Su Ye left for her.
[Zhou Yi, thank you. Before you came, there was always a vague figure walking around in my mind. It seemed to be nothing during the day, but it would stir my heart upside down at night.
It was like Pandora’s box, which was clearly in front of me, but I never had the courage to open it.
Until you mentioned “true love” and “long love”, I suddenly remembered her appearance clearly.
I miss her very much, I want to go to Southwest to accompany her, and I want to continue to do what she hasn’t finished.
After talking to her, I went.
“This city” was opened for her by me.
Although I can’t wait for the person I want to wait for, there was someone I loved the most in this city, and I want to give it to someone who can make me feel at ease.
It’s you…
On the day you came, you looked dusty, but when you looked up, your eyes were so clear and bright.
I knew at that second that the person you love is in this city. Just for her, you must also guard the city, so I want to give it to you. 】
At the bottom is a string of phone numbers.
Su also said: 【This is Lawyer Guan’s phone number. If you are willing to take over “this city”, just call her, and she will help you with the gift procedures. If you don’t want to, just pretend you haven’t seen this card. Zhou Yi, glad to meet you, I hope there will always be “a city” waiting for you in your life. 】
Zhou Yi closed the card, her heart beating heavily.
She and Su Ye had known each other for no more than ten days, and she had already forgotten the time when guarding the city.
How dare she accept such a heavy heart?
But if you don’t pick it up, Su Ye’s city will be empty, and one day the souls of the dead will pass by without a place to stay, just like… she who only dared to come and go in a hurry five years ago.

Provincial Taiwan.
Seeing that Fu Xiao’s seat was empty, Mu Qinglin stopped and asked An Xiang who was opposite, “Where is Fu Xiao?”
When An Xiang looked up, the dark circles under his eyes were frighteningly large, “I asked for leave…”
“When did you ask?”
“The day after you came back.”
“Didn’t come after that?”
“Yes…”
Mu Qinglin looked at Fu Xiao’s seat thoughtfully for a while, then suddenly pointed the finger at An Xiang, “The manuscripts for those medical disputes are finished?”
An Xiang pointed at the computer screen and said, “I just typed the last word.”
Mu Qinglin casually pushed An Xiang and the chair to the base of the wall, and leaned over his desk to read.
Two minutes later, Mu Qinglin stood up straight, and said with a cold face: “What about the commonality? What about the root cause? What about the questions you raised? What about the thoughts you raised? An Xiang, I told you on the first day you were with me. Journal-style news is not only perfunctory to the public, but also perfunctory to yourself, I thought you remembered.”
There was obvious disappointment in Mu Qinglin’s tone, An Xiang didn’t dare to chat with her any more, and quickly stood up and said, “I’ve never done this kind of news, so I don’t know what to do.”
Mu Qinglin’s voice became deeper, “No one’s experience is for nothing, if you don’t know it, just go and see, ask, and learn.”
“I asked, everyone is very busy.” An Xiang defended in a low voice.
Mu Qinglin frowned.
The news center is fast-paced, and it is normal for people not to care about things other than themselves.
She softened her attitude, “Call me next time. If you really can’t reach me, go online to find similar excellent news and see how other people’s content is arranged.”
An Xiang clapped his hands and said excitedly, “That’s right! How could I have forgotten about Baidu!”
An Xiang hurried to Baidu.
Mu Qinglin guided for a while, and went to Wan Qianli to talk about the documentary.
They seem to have used the meeting room as an office, and someone even moved the bed.
Seeing Mu Qinglin appear, in order to catch up with the progress, Wanqianli, who had worked overtime for three consecutive days, seemed to see a savior, pulled her and began to complain that Duan Yi was a donkey, unable to listen to other people’s opinions, Duan Yi was so angry that he pointed at His nose cursed, “You bastard! Don’t confuse right and wrong there!”
Wan Qianli’s face darkened, and he rolled up his sleeves and charged forward, scaring Li Xiong and the others…sitting motionless, no one stood up.
Mu Qinglin, “…??” What happened during her absence?
Li Xiong said: “They couldn’t fight at all. We were all blinded by such a hot start before.”
Mu Qinglin opened his mouth for a long time, but didn’t say anything. By the window a few steps away from her, the two people who were incompatible just a second ago now hooked up shoulder to shoulder and chatted so much that they felt like they were sympathetic and congenial.
Mu Qinglin was speechless. She forced herself to pull her gaze away from the two of them, successfully avoiding the scene where they looked at each other affectionately and complained to each other, and said: “Everyone has worked hard recently. I want to buy coffee. What to drink, report it in the group as soon as possible, I will go down and buy it later.”
“I’ll go…” An Xiang passed by the door, ran in and said, “There are apprentices, so it’s not the master’s turn to run away.”
Mu Qinglin raised his eyebrows and gave him this opportunity, “Come back and get the receipt to reimburse me.”
An Xiang, “Alright!”
An Xiang slipped downstairs.
Seeing Zhou Yi in “this city”, An Xiang was dumbfounded for a long time before asking, “Master, why are you here?!”
Zhou Yi said lightly: “Go to work…”
“Ah You…”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Oh…”
An Xiang quickly took out his phone and ordered according to the group chat records.
Zhou Yi asked: “What did Yanyan drink?”
An Xiang was confused, “Who is Yanyan?”
Zhou Yi looked up at him, without saying a word.
An Xiang’s IQ suddenly came online, and he calmly said, “Ice American Style…”
Zhou Yi turned around and left, leaving An Xiang touching his forehead with lingering fear, and secretly said, her teacher’s wife’s eyes are getting sharper, and the sense of oppression from the inside out is getting stronger and stronger.
“Hiss!” An Xiang shuddered, and ran to sit by the window to bask in the sun.
After a while, Zhou Yi came over with six or seven packing bags, pointed to one of the cups and said, “This one belongs to Yanyan.”
An Xiang opened the bag and looked inside, “I didn’t increase the amount, ah! Teacher, I have to go to work, so I’m leaving first!”
An Xiang picked up the coffee and ran faster than a dog.
Li Cuo stared at him in disbelief, came over and asked Zhou Yi, “Why did he call you Shimu?”
Zhou Yi leaned over to clear the table and said, “My girlfriend is his master.”
Li Cuo Petrochemical. The feng shui of their store is somewhat special, otherwise why the first and second bosses are all gay.
An Xiang flew all the way back, put the packing bag on the table, excitedly took out Mu Qinglin’s cup, held it in front of her and said, “Sister Mu, please.”
Mu Qinglin is discussing with Wan Qianli whether or not to shoot the part about animal migration.
It took only a dozen seconds to cut this scene into the feature film, but it took a whole year of back and forth to film it.
Some people think that this has little to do with the theme of “wild conservation”, and there is no need to put in so much effort, while Mu Qinglin and Wan Qianli agree that “endless life” is the most fundamental meaning of wild conservation.
Mu Qinglin took the coffee that An Xiang handed over, and said coolly: “No matter how much you dare to mess around, even if you hand the coffee to my mouth, I will mercilessly send you back to Lao Cui.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be able to write it well this time!” An Xiang vowed, and suddenly leaned over the table when it was over, laughing as lewdly as possible, “Try it quickly…”
Mu Qinglin’s scalp was numb from his laughter, and with strength in his legs, he slid the chair back and took a sip.
An Xiang asked impatiently: “How is it? How is it?”
Mu Qinglin said, “That’s it…”
“Oh—” An Xiang stood up, and walked out with his hands behind his back, “It seems that I have to urge my teacher to continue working hard. Her craftsmanship and deep love have not been recognized at all.”
“Stop…” An Xiang was called to a stop, his expression immediately became mean, and he turned to look at Mu Qinglin with an innocent expression again, “What’s wrong?”
Mu Qinglin said calmly: “Your face looks haunted up close. I’m so scared that you’re gone. How can I taste it?”
“??” An Xiang was stunned, thinking back then, he was also a professional grass, okay! Oh, it’s old now, with a precarious hairline.
Mu Qinglin took another sip leisurely against An Xiang’s sad gaze, and said, “It’s a bit sweet…”
This time it’s not An Xiang’s turn, Wanqianli rubbed his arms with aversion to the cold, and complained: “Ice American Sweet? It’s so common, so just wake up and refresh yourself. Describing it in the tone of a fine nectar and jade liquid? Director Mu, doesn’t your conscience ache?”
Mu Qinglin said: “Next time my sister-in-law gives you some iced Americano, remember to say the same.”
Wan Qianli said “Hi Ya” and ran to talk to Duan Yi, as if nothing happened just now.
Mu Qinglin looked at the paper cup in his hand for a while, then slowly raised his eyes to An Xiang, “You know what to say?”
An Xiang nodded resolutely, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and typed: [Teacher’s wife, the iced American style you make is not authentic, Miss Mu said it was a bit sweet. 】
It was almost noon when Zhou Yi saw this message, she couldn’t hold back the corners of her mouth, she went out to find Mu Qinglin: [Your cup is the first cup I made for a guest seriously]
Mu Qinglin came back quickly: [Take me as a guinea pig? 】
Zhou Yi: [Not happy? 】
Mu Qinglin: [Willingly]
Zhou Yi pursed her lips tightly but couldn’t stop laughing: 【Are you busy today? 】
Mu Qinglin said: [It’s a little bit, I haven’t been back for a long time, I have a lot of things on my hands…]
【I have to work overtime most nights】
Zhou Yi: [It’s okay, I’ll wait for you in the store, just tell me after you finish working overtime, I’ll go find you…]
Mu Qinglin: [Thanks for your hard work, Teacher Jiu]
Zhou Yi said: [I am willing to wait for you, I will only be anxious, not hard…]
—
At eleven thirty in the evening, the coffee shop was already closed.
Zhou Yi sat alone by the empty window, the warm light fell from the top of her head, and a layer of fur fringe wrapped her body with bowed shoulders at the desk, softening the thin feeling of loneliness.
There was a thick stack of books in front of her, all about coffee, Mu Qinglin could imagine the difficulty of the content from the thickness alone, but Zhou Yi read it so seriously that he didn’t even realize that he was watched from the side.
She seems to be like this all the time, no matter how big things she encountered in the past, she can calm down and start over.
When Mu Qing appreciated it, she couldn’t help but want her to share those focused gazes with her.
She knew that the act of disturbing people’s thoughts should be annoying, but she just wanted to do it.
Mu Qinglin walked to the window and knocked on the glass.
Zhou Yi raised his head upon hearing the sound.
The second she saw Mu Qinglin, Zhou Yi’s affectionate smile spread quickly. She quickly pointed to the door and mouthed, “Come in…”
Mu Qing went around to the main entrance and walked all the way behind Zhou Yi. Before she could speak, he raised his hand and scratched her chin, saying, “Look up and lean back, and close your eyes.”
Zhou Yi did so without hesitation.
The light in the store is not good, Zhou Yi’s eyes are watery after reading under the lamp for a long time, and when he closes it, some tears flow out of his physiology.
Mu Qinglin wiped it lightly with her fingertips, and then gently massaged her around the eyes while asking, “Why are you reading these books all of a sudden?”
Zhou Yi said concisely, “The boss has left and wants to give me the store.”
Mu Qinglin paused, “When did it happen?”
Zhou Yi said: “Come here this morning, my colleague told me, but I haven’t decided whether to accept it or not. I have never opened a store before, so I don’t know how to run it.”
“Reading is to confirm whether you are suitable or not?”
“Ok…”
“in conclusion…”
“It’s okay, I can see in.”
“Then why don’t you accept it?” Mu Qinglin’s warm thumb gently stroked Zhou Yi’s eyes, and when she opened them, he looked at her with a smile and said, “I’ll just look after the store for your boss.”
Zhou Yi hesitated, “This store means a lot to the boss.”
Mu Qinglin asked, “How heavy is it?”
Zhou Yi made it clear in a few words, hugged Mu Qinglin who was walking to the side, leaned her head against her flat stomach, and said, “It’s not because of relatives, but I’m still covered when such a big stuffed pie hit me on the head. ”
Mu Qinglin teased, “Teacher Jiu has already experienced many battles, so why are you afraid of such a thing?”
Zhou Yi shook his head, “It’s not that I’m afraid, but I just can’t believe that the boss just left. I always feel that this kind of thing will only appear in the news, it’s like a dream.”
Mu Qinglin stroked the long hair on the back of Zhou Yi’s head, and slowly said: “Perhaps you have not thought about it, this is the result that Su Ye has been waiting for.”
Zhou Yi looked up, “Really?”
Mu Qinglin looked down, “The continuation of the will is not only a comfort to the dead, but also the most direct way for the living to regain happiness. She has figured it out, and she must set out to do it immediately.”
Zhou Yi remained silent, his internal organs vibrated slightly.
Continuation of legacy…
Countless images flashed through Zhou Yi’s mind. She couldn’t grasp it, so she quickly let go of Mu Qinglin, picked up the mobile phone on the table, and called Lawyer Guan.
“Hi, I’m Zhou Yi.”
“Is it convenient for you to come over to “this city” tomorrow? ”
