Chapter 218: Heart Tightness
The next day, Meng Yanchen took half a day off and went to the mall. He walked into the electronics store, where the clerk greeted him warmly and introduced the functions and features of the new game console to him in detail. The more Meng Yanchen listened, the more excited he became, and he finally decided to buy one.
Meng Yanchen was full of anticipation and excitement when he returned home with the new game console. He couldn't wait to install it, and Xu Qin helped him. Seeing Meng Yanchen's concentration, Xu Qin felt warm in her heart. She knew that Meng Yanchen had been working very hard, and this game console might allow him to find some fun and relaxation.
After the installation was complete, Meng Yanchen turned on the game console and operated it skillfully. The dazzling images and shocking sound effects on the screen made him feel as if he had returned to his student days, a time when he could immerse himself in the game world without worries. Xu Qin sat beside him, looking at the screen excitedly, exclaiming from time to time.
"Yanchen, this game is really cool!" Xu Qin said in surprise.
Meng Yanchen smiled and nodded: "Yes, I haven't had so much fun in a long time."
They played the game together for a while. Although Xu Qin was not very skilled in the operation, she gradually found the fun under Meng Yanchen's guidance. Seeing her happy, Meng Yanchen felt extremely satisfied. He knew that Xu Qin was willing to play with him, and this companionship and support made him feel particularly happy.
In the evening, Xu Qin prepared a sumptuous dinner to celebrate their new game console. After dinner, Meng Yanchen took Xu Qin to continue playing games for a while until late at night, when they reluctantly turned off the game console and prepared to rest.
Lying on the bed, Xu Qin leaned on Meng Yanchen's shoulder and said softly: "Yanchen, I'm really happy today. We can play games together often in the future to relax."
Meng Yanchen hugged her gently and whispered, "Yes, Xu Qin. Thank you for being with me. I feel that we are not only husband and wife, but also best friends and partners."
Xu Qin nodded, her heart full of confidence and expectations for the future. She knew that no matter what difficulties she encountered in life, as long as she was with Meng Yanchen, they would always find the source of joy and happiness.
In the following days, Meng Yanchen and Xu Qin's lives were filled with the joy of games. They often played games together after work, and their mutual understanding and affection became deeper in the process. Every victory and defeat in the game became their common memories and topics.
One weekend, Meng Yanchen suggested: "Xu Qin, should we invite our friends to our house, play games together, and have a party?"
Xu Qin readily agreed: "Okay, that's a good idea. We can prepare some snacks and drinks, and everyone will have a lot of fun."
They started preparing and invited several close friends. When their friends heard the proposal, they were all very excited and expressed their willingness to participate.
On the day of the party, Meng Yanchen and Xu Qin's home was filled with laughter. Everyone played games together and competed with each other. The whole atmosphere was both relaxed and lively. Xu Qin served delicious snacks to everyone from time to time, and Meng Yanchen guided the novice friends and taught them how to operate.
After the party, friends praised the event and expressed their hope to have such an opportunity again in the future. Xu Qin and Meng Yanchen felt extremely satisfied when they saw their friends having fun.
Xu Qin sat on the sofa and said to Meng Yanchen with a smile: "Yanchen, I think our life is becoming more and more interesting."
Meng Yanchen held her hand and said gently, "Yes, Xu Qin. As long as we work together, life will always be full of surprises and beauty."
Xu Qin, a woman as gentle as jade, is the deepest concern in Meng Yanchen's heart. The two have known each other since college, and due to fate, they have become good friends who can talk about anything. Although they have different life trajectories, Meng Yanchen has made a name for himself in the business world, and Xu Qin has become an outstanding designer, but their friendship has never changed. Five years ago, they made a promise on a summer night that no matter how the future changes, they will meet in this city at this time every year to relive their old friendship.
Meng Yanchen recalled the scene of that night. It was a starry night. They sat by the river. Xu Qin pointed at the stars in the sky and whispered, "Meng Yanchen, no matter how the future changes, we must meet here every year at this time, okay?" He smiled and agreed to her. From then on, this promise became a precious memory in his heart.
Time flies, and the years are ruthless. Every year, Meng Yanchen would come as promised, and Xu Qin never missed the appointment. The two talked about the past and looked forward to the future, as if time had never left a trace between them. However, this year, it was a little different. Xu Qin suddenly lost contact, and Meng Yanchen called her many times, but no one answered. He couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, but he still decided to wait at the agreed place for her arrival.
As night fell, the neon lights on the street gradually lit up, and the city's nightlife began to get lively. Meng Yanchen sat on a bench by the river, looking around from time to time, hoping to see that familiar figure. He took out his cell phone and dialed Xu Qin's number again, but it was still a cold busy tone. He couldn't help but frown, feeling a little uneasy.
At this moment, a gentle voice interrupted his thoughts. "Meng Yanchen, you are still here." He looked up suddenly and saw Xu Qin standing not far away with a warm smile on her face. She was still so beautiful, as if the years had not left any traces on her.
"Xu Qin!" Meng Yanchen walked up quickly and asked with concern, "Why did you come just now? I thought something happened to you." Xu Qin shook her head slightly, with a hint of apology in her eyes. "I'm sorry, Yanchen, I made you worry. I was delayed by something just now, but I still came." Her words were like a spring breeze, soothing the anxiety in Meng Yanchen's heart.
The two walked side by side by the river, the night breeze blowing on their faces, bringing a hint of coolness. Xu Qin suddenly stopped and turned to face Meng Yanchen, with a complex light flashing in his eyes. "Yanchen, actually I have something important to tell you today." Meng Yanchen's heart tightened, and he quickly asked: "What is it? Tell me."
Xu Qin took a deep breath and said slowly, "I may have to leave this city." This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Meng Yanchen at a loss for words. He froze in place, and it took him a while to find his voice. "Why? What happened?"
