I wrote this article just to satisfy my fantasy about the future. Key point: Dr. Zhou had a child in his previous life but not after his rebirth. Fragment one: In the summer when he was sixteen, Li Li bumped into Zhou Jing. She just ran out of home that day, and her grandma's shouts were still chasing her, "Li Li! Come back!" But she didn't want to stop. Her parents came back with their younger brother. The younger brother was white and clean, wearing nice clothes that she had never seen before. He stood in the middle of the yard like a young master. And she had been waiting for twelve years in this town, and this was what she had been waiting for. She could run on the road behind the mountain with her eyes closed, but that day she ran too fast and ran into a man's arms when she turned the corner of the alley. The man was staggered by her collision, but he reached out to support her first: "Kid, are you okay?" Li Li raised his head. Zhou Jing is wearing a light blue skirt, her hair is pulled loosely, and her eyebrows are very gentle. Li Li was stunned there, his mind was empty except for one thought: This woman is so beautiful. Seeing that she was in a daze, Zhou Jing waved her hand in front of her eyes. Only then did Li Li come back to his senses and stammered: "I... I'm fine, I'm sorry!" After saying that, she ran away. After running a long way, she couldn't help but look back. The man was still standing there, looking in her direction and smiling. Li Li didn't know her name, but he only knew that he saw her again in school later. She was the school doctor and her name was Zhou Jing. Fragment two: On the day the college entrance examination ended, Li Li received a text message from Zhou Jing. "Li Li, it's wrong for us to do this, I'm sorry." She called back and was blocked. She ran to the school and asked everyone, but she got the same answer: Dr. Zhou resigned and didn't know where he went. Li Li stood at the door of the school doctor's office, clutching the ticket she had saved up for a long time. She wanted to take Zhou Jing to see the sea. Zhou Jing said that she had never seen the sea. She also thought about many, many things. She thought about meeting her secretly when she came back from college during the holidays, and thought about being together openly after she graduated. But Zhou Jing left. Two years later, Li Li went to college in another city. She thought she was well and could no longer think about her, until a classmate sent a message: "Li Li, Dr. Zhou is getting married again. Did you know? Are you going to attend?" Without thinking she asked for the address. On the day of the wedding, she stood downstairs in the hotel, looking up at the window with the word "Happy" on it. She thought that Zhou Jing must be beautiful today, wearing a white wedding dress, and her whole body was shining like the first time she saw her. Then she saw a figure falling from the window, and a white wedding dress floating in the air. Li Li didn't know how he ran over, or how he knelt in front of that person. Zhou Jing lay there, her eyes still open, looking at the sky. The blood slowly spread from under her body, dyeing the white gauze red. Later, Zhou Jing's family came. They stood next to Zhou Jing's body. They didn't cry. They were just arguing with the people in the hotel, saying they wanted compensation. Li Li heard Zhou Jing's mother say: "This damn girl will cause trouble to the family even if she dies." Li Li walked over and stood in front of the woman. "I'll collect Dr. Zhou's body. I'll give it to you as much as you want." That night, Li Li asked someone to put makeup on Zhou Jing. The makeup artist said that she was really good at it and the painting would look good. Li Li watched from the side, watching the face gradually return to the way she remembered it, as if nothing had happened. She chose the best cemetery. After doing all this, Li Li returned to the house he rented, wrote a letter and put it under his pillow. Then she swallowed the medicine. She thought, Zhou Jing, wait for me. Fragment three: Li Li was shaken awake by her grandma. "Li'er, Li'er! Are you having a nightmare?" She opened her eyes and saw her grandma's face and the familiar beam above her head. The sun shone in through the window and shone on the old quilt she was covering. She sat up in a daze and looked at her hands. They were small and thin, and they were the hands of a girl. "Grandma," her voice was trembling, "do you know Zhou Jing?" Grandma smiled: "That child from the Zhou family? He's good-looking and does well in studies, but his life is miserable and his parents don't want to see him." Li Li's heart beat wildly. She lifted the quilt and ran out barefoot. The town was still the same town, and the alley was still the same alley. She ran through the road she ran on when she was sixteen, and ran through the alley where she bumped into Zhou Jing. The door of Zhou Jing's house was ajar, and smoke was coming from the kitchen. Li Li opened the door and saw a girl standing by the stove. She was wearing old clothes and was adding firewood to the stove. She heard the noise, turned her head and saw a panting girl standing at the door. "Hello, who are you looking for?" Li Li stood on the threshold, tears streaming down his face. Zhou Jing was startled by her, and just as she was about to stand up, the girl ran over and hugged her tightly. "My name is Li Li." The girl said in her ear, her voice trembling violently, "You must remember me." Zhou Jing was stunned there, not knowing whether he should push her away. "Don't worry," the girl relaxed a little and looked into her eyes, her eyes red but smiling seriously, "I will definitely let you go to college and live a good life." Fragment four: Before Zhou Jing died, her son handed the notebook to Li Li. Li Li's hands were shaking when he opened it. It was Zhou Jing's diary, written from the first day they met to the day she left. "I bumped into a child at the alley today. Her eyes were red, like a little rabbit. She bumped into me, said sorry to me, and then ran away. What a cute child." "That child came to the school doctor's office today. She looked like she was fighting with someone. When she saw it was me, her face turned red again. I asked her what her name was, and she said it was Li Li, which sounded really nice." "Li Li told me today that her parents abandoned her in the town and took her brother to the city. She didn't cry when she told her, but my heart ached a little. I want to be nice to her, a little girl. It just so happens that I have a son and I still lack a daughter." "I found that I started to expect her to come. Every time the door rang, I would look up to see if it was her. This was wrong and I couldn't control it." "Li Li confessed to me today. The eighteen-year-old kid stood in front of me, his face flushed, and said Zhou Jing, I like you. I wanted to refuse, but looking at her eyes, I couldn't say it. I said yes, wait until you finish the college entrance examination. She jumped with joy." "I sent her that text message. I deleted her number, quit my job, and left that place. It's not that I didn't like it, but I didn't dare to like it. I have children and a past, and I can't drag her down." "Today they forced me to get married. I don't know that man, but I can't help it. Mom said if I don't get married, I'll get out of this house. I thought maybe if I got married, I wouldn't have to think about her anymore." The last line of words was written in messy handwriting, as if it were trembling: "Li Li, I saw you. You were downstairs. I wanted to jump down and jump in front of you, but I didn't have the strength. I had to jump down. Don't look at me. Don't look at me like this." Li Li hugged the notebook and cried the whole night. Then she woke up and found herself back when Zhou Jing was sixteen. Purpose: Treat feelings sincerely
