When Bai Qi was twenty years old, the person he relied on the most was Sheng Zhiheng.
He is thirty-five years old, an executive of a listed group, married with a wife and children.
She called him "Teacher Sheng."
I look to him when I'm nervous about a game, I look to him when I have a quarrel at home, I look to him when I'm sick, I feel aggrieved, I can't make up my mind, my first reaction is always to look for him.
As Sheng Zhiheng got used to her dependence, he reminded her again and again:
"Bai Qi, you have to have your own life."
"Don't come to me for anything."
Later, Bai Qi really obeyed.
He didn't come to the competition, so she went on stage alone.
If something goes wrong with the project, she first goes to her teachers and classmates to take care of the mess herself.
When she got a new opportunity, she no longer told him immediately.
Later, Sheng Zhiheng could only find out about her good news from the group together with everyone else.
A twenty-two-year-old boy also began to appear next to her.
He could wait for her to finish class openly, he could directly tell her that he liked her, and he could ask her to go to a movie.
And Sheng Zhiheng discovered for the first time——
It turns out that what he really wanted was never for Bai Qi to grow up.
He just desperately hoped that when she grew up, she would still need him the most.
But Bai Qi has already started to quit.
She no longer waited for news from him, no longer guessed whether he would accompany his wife tonight, no longer speculated over and over again just because of a "hmm", and finally understood:
If you like someone, you shouldn't just stand in the gaps in his life forever.
Later, Sheng Zhiheng finally lowered his head and asked her:
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to marry me?"
Bai Qi looked at him for a long time.
"It was before."
"Teacher Sheng, you are too late now."
