At this moment, Lin Yue felt not the emptiness after his thoughts and dreams, but a heavy pressure and unprecedented challenges, as well as absolute fulfillment.
Gambling, ceramics, and carving will fill Lin Yue's life after this. The thrill of gambling, the excitement of picking up ceramics, and the inspiration that bursts forth during the creative process of carving all have a fatal attraction to Lin Yue. His future life is destined to be full of excitement, but his pressure will also increase day by day.
Three days later, Lin Yue and Qin Yaoyao sat in the living room, a dinner that should have been warm and cozy was filled with thoughts of separation.
"Are we leaving tomorrow?" Qin Yaoyao asked absent-mindedly, staring at the dishes on the dinner table.
"Uh-huh." Lin Yue nodded and said: "Depart at 8 am tomorrow, this time to Tengchong and other places will take at least half a month, or possibly a month."
Qin Yaoyao nodded lightly and didn't say a word.
For a moment, both of them fell silent and stopped moving. The atmosphere in the living room began to solidify and become oppressive, making it hard for the two people to breathe.
Both of them wanted to find a topic to ease the atmosphere, but at this time both of their minds were blank and they couldn't think.
After a long time, Lin Yue broke the oppressive atmosphere between them and said softly: "Take good care of yourself after I leave."
Qin Yaoyao nodded slightly, without saying a word, and didn't eat either. She still had her head down, lost in thought.
Lin Yue saw the situation and silently sighed, saying: "Let's eat." As he spoke, he picked up a chopstick of vegetables and put it in his mouth, chewing for a few moments, but couldn't taste anything, nor did he have any appetite.
Qin Yaoyao still lowered her head.
It's been ten days since the two of them went for a walk together, and over these ten days, their relationship has become increasingly intimate. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as being inseparable. However, when one of them suddenly had to leave for an extended period, they both truly felt the pain of separation.
He had no appetite, Lin Yue finally put down his chopsticks and saw Qin Yaoyao's figure, suddenly having a kind of impulse in his heart. He slowly got up, walked to Qin Yaoyao's side, slowly stretched out his hand, and hugged her in his arms.
This was Lin Yue's first time holding Qin Yaoyao, and he didn't feel any excitement in his heart. Everything felt very natural, as if the two of them were meant to be this way.
Qin Yaoyao was not startled by Lin Yue's sudden hug, but instead let out all the reluctance in her heart. She turned around and hugged Lin Yue's waist, burying her face in his chest and sobbing loudly.
Lin Yue stroked Qin Yaoyao's hair, a bitter feeling rising in his heart. The entanglement of children and parents is the most distressing thing.
He had to go to Tengchong no matter what, even if it was just for their future, he would gamble a few pieces of jade back.
Two people hugged each other like this, feeling the warmth and heartbeat of each other. This feeling was very warm, very happy, making people indulge in it and unable to extricate themselves.
After a long time, Lin Yue picked up Qin Yuyao's lovely face, looking at the pear flower-like expression with rain, and his heart ached, unable to bear it, he lowered his head and kissed her.
Their lips met, and Qin Yaoyao's body stiffened involuntarily before relaxing, losing herself in every second of the kiss.
……
The next day, Lin Yue took a special car to Tengchong with He Youzang, and this time there were only two people. A team of two people, although not big but absolutely not small. Many people went alone, the safety measures there are still relatively good, so generally few people bring bodyguards. It's easy to do anything when you're alone.
This month he didn't find time to go back home, going back home and the matter of that Taoist temple was infinitely postponed by him.
As I thought about being suddenly attacked by Qin Yaoyao when I was about to leave the house in the morning, my face was kissed, and my heart couldn't help but feel a wave of sweetness, my face was also filled with smiles, and the sorrow of parting in my heart was also alleviated a lot.
But thinking of the deep kiss yesterday was actually ruined by the sound of growling stomach, Lin Yue's facial muscles twitched involuntarily.
Regret it from the beginning! Regret it from the beginning!
He soon thought of the situation two days ago when he paid homage to his masters, completely following the ancient ritual of offering tea and kowtowing. He Changhe and Chang Lao argued over who was the greater master until their faces were red with excitement, finally yielding a step and becoming co-masters, thus ending the struggle between the old men.
Thinking of the apprenticeship, Lin Yue sighed: It's still beneficial to apprentice, and it's better to apprentice with multiple masters. At least one person gives a red envelope, which adds up to a large sum of money.
Lin Yue gazed out the window at the rapidly passing scenery, and his heart couldn't help but feel a hint of anticipation for Tengchong. He had been familiar with the name Tengchong for two years due to his hobby of collecting agate stones, but he had never been there before.
That is the holy land of gamblers.
Tengchong is a famous jade trading hub, although it has declined since Myanmar imposed strict controls on the jade trade. However, its unique geographical location and rich jade deposits make it a must-visit destination for all jade enthusiasts. It was the people of Tengchong who first discovered jade, which brought such beautiful jewelry to the world. China's jade trading hubs are not limited to Tengchong, but also include Ruili in Yunnan Province and Kunming. Perhaps everyone wants to gain some good luck, making their jade-trading journey smoother, many jade merchants and traders make Tengchong their first stop.
This time He Yuzang went to Tengchong mainly to try his luck, hearing that a batch of goods will arrive in Tengchong recently, he wants to go and take a look in advance.
The last batch of wool made him a small profit, but not much. The jadeite produced was not too many, so for Rong Le Xuan, a high-end market boutique like this, that little jadeite is simply not enough to use.
Lin Yue never had the chance to learn how to drive, so He Youzang took care of driving. He Youzang didn't like talking, so the atmosphere in the car was quite dull. However, Lin Yue thought it was pretty good to be riding in a car and planned to buy one when he got back, so that he could take Qin Yaya out for a drive in the future.
Thinking of the wonderful life in the future, Lin Yue's heart was filled with excitement.
At this time, however, He Youzang, who was driving in front, spoke up: "It will take two and a half hours to get to Tengchong. If you're feeling tired, we can rest for a bit." His voice was very calm.
Listening to He Youzang's words, Lin Yue suddenly felt that He Youzang and Li Qingmeng were absolutely a match made in heaven, both of them being so cold, and the degree of their coldness was absolutely comparable.
Lin Yue shook his head and said: "I'm not tired. If you're tired, you can teach me how to drive. After I learn it, I can replace you."
He heard Lin Yue's words, He Xiao Cang was stunned for a moment, and then a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The highway is teaching people how to drive, looking for death!
Lin Yue saw He Youzang's expression in his heart and thought that this guy still had some human feelings, not just one expression all day.
The two people gradually opened up and started talking.
