Chapter 472
Ning Qing sighed and opened the card.
“Qing Qing, I’m very happy to be able to witness another year of your growth. It’s my fortune to know you.
Perhaps you weren’t born for me, but I’m fortunate enough to be by your side.
Qingqing, Happy Birthday.”
Ning Qing’s mother felt goosebumps all over her body.
“Tsk tsk, look, if this isn’t a confession, what is it?”
Ning Qing had gotten used to her mother’s nagging these past two days. She quickly packed up her things, got up, and went into her room.
She remembered something. Gu nanzhi had told her that the gift he had given her was in her room.
Ning Qing looked around and found a box and a letter in the drawer of the desk.
She didn’t think much of it and opened the envelope first.
On the White letter, the man’s handwriting was just like him, scribbled and flamboyant, not too good-looking.
“Ning, Happy Birthday.
I don’t know if you’re still angry with me when you read this letter. Perhaps you’re so angry that you don’t even want to see the gift I’ve prepared for you. But it’s okay, it’s your loss that you didn’t see it in advance.”
He still had that arrogant look on his face. Ning Qing was in a good mood, but the next sentence made her expression change immediately.
I’m leaving. You’re right. When I said leave, I meant to go back to America.
“......”
“When you see this, did you suddenly realize that you can’t bear to part with me, and then you became sad? Haha, but I’m not joking with you this time. I’m really preparing to go back.
To be honest, I’ve been very happy since I came to Ying city. Although you always despise me, I know that it’s all because of your love for me, haha.
During this time, I’ve been thinking about a lot of things about the people around me. I think that in some matters, I’m not as good as you, Yingluo. I think I should learn from you and be more responsible. I should face things bravely and not just avoid them.
So, I’ve decided to go back and settle everything.
Perhaps not everything would go as he wished, but at least he was brave once, and it was not a loss.
As for you, just stay with mom and dad. When I have the chance, I’ll come to see you again.
I hope that the next time I come to see you, I’ll be clean. I also hope that you’ll just forget about it. There’s no good Hope. I hope that you get what you want.
If there’s still time, you don’t have to send me off. I don’t like to part, you know that.”
Only the writer would know what was omitted after the ellipsis.
The signature “Tiny” was written smoothly and beautifully.
Ning Qing’s mind was filled with the news that he was leaving, and she was so touched that she didn’t even have time to spread it.
Caught off guard, the box in her hand fell to the ground.
A crystal fell out.
Ning Qing squatted down to pick it up.
It was a keychain, and the pendant was rose gold in color. It was four to five centimeters long, like a cross used to ward off evil, but also like a sword worn by European Knights in the early days. The body of the sword was inlaid with shiny diamonds, reflecting a dazzling brilliance.
She suddenly remembered that the design of this finished product had once appeared on Gu nanzhi’s computer desktop.
He once said,”my designs symbolize men. No matter what, they must be brave and hit the target in one strike!”
At that time, she had even asked her jokingly,”what if you don’t succeed?”
“Then I can only take a step back and be someone else’s defeated opponent.” He pursed his lips.
Ning Qing clutched the pendant tightly, her heart stifled and uncomfortable.
What did he mean by that?
Ning Qing turned around and saw a note in the box.
She hurriedly opened it-
I’m willing to be your Knight, to protect you, to cut through all obstacles for you, to lead the soldiers, and to seek a lifetime of happiness for you.
