For You

At one o’clock in the morning, Ruo Bi sat in the guard room in front of the gate of the police force. She was waiting for the familiar figure in the distance.

His shadow couldn’t be seen in the night, but his police uniform silhouette was very sharp.

Hua Jingzhi also saw her.

He nodded to Yang Wei, and Yang Wei retreated knowingly.

He looked away, took off his police cap and put it aside. His voice was cold when he asked, “Why are you here?”

After holding back her anger from waiting several hours, he looked at his arm.

The wrapping had been removed, and his right hand was drooping. Whether it was taking off the police cap or dragging the stool, his left hand was used.

“I’ll take you back.”

As he spoke, he went out.

Ruo Bi stood still, and suddenly felt a little frustrated. “From your point of view, is the mission more important than anything else? To the point that you’re willing to risk your life? You have injured your hand really badly, and you are not the only one in the team. SInce you’re a sniper, do you love being a hero this much?”

Hua Jingzhi stood still, his back was lonely.

“Then in your point of view, I’m just an emotionless machine who only completes missions, right?”

Ruo Bi didn’t speak.

“Or do you even care at all? About my feelings, and when I’m going through a hard time?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? How could I…”

“Do you really think I didn’t know? Hm?” Hua Jingzhi interrupted her. He hunched down, but did not turn around. He kept his back to her. “I know everything about you and Miao Jie. I have known everything about you since we were children. I know exactly what you like to eat, what cartoons you like to watch, what colors and zodiac signs you like, but what do you know about me? Do you know why I went to Xinjiang back then?”

Ruo Bi opened her mouth. “I…”

“You never cared about me, Ruo Bi. You only thought of me as a trouble, a burden. I made you single even though you’re 25 years old. I made you feel guilty, and all I’ve given you is exhaustion…”

“…”

“You know that there isn’t any cordyceps chicken soup in the surrounding area, but you still asked the question of where I bought it. You don’t care at all that I drove six hours to buy it from the neighboring B City, and then delivered it to the hospital without making any stops. For you, I just want to spend time with you when I don’t expect you to have lunch with me.

“Hua Jingzhi… have you been drinking?” There was a strong smell of alcohol all over him.

Drinking and driving. Ruo Bi felt a bang of pain in her heart.

She wanted to lecture Hua Jingzhi, but in his current state of mind, he wouldn’t listen at all.

“Do you care?” He smiled wryly. “You don’t. That year in Xinjiang, I heard the name Miao Jie for the first time and I drank so much that I almost got a stomach ulcer, but you know what? You don’t want to know anything about me. Don’t worry, when I’m not here, you will feel better.”

He turned around. His eyes were red, and tiredness was etched all over his face.

“Ruo Bi, after all these years, the only time you came to me was because I was injured on a mission.”

“…”

“I’m not a mission machine, and I’m not desperate. You have a rich life, and there is too little left for me… I wasn’t supposed to go on this mission, but I just thought, maybe if I go, will you come find me?”

The bottom of her heart felt like it was being torn apart by invisible hands.

The nose was also tingling.

Ruo Bine opened her mouth. “I’m here…”

Hua Jingzhi turned back suddenly. “Ruo Bi, I’m so stupid. I want you to tell me, did you come find me because we grew up together, or because you thought I am your boyfriend?”
