The fate between people is sometimes very unpredictable. We don't know when we will suddenly separate from each other, nor when we will suddenly reunite with each other.

In the noodle shop, Su Li and Gu Ling'an were sitting face to face, with dim lights overhead and diners talking loudly around them. They were watching each other in undisturbed silence, as if they wanted to look back at the time they had lost for more than ten years.

It wasn't until the steaming hot noodles were served that Gu Ling'an spoke first, "You came here alone?"

"Yeah." She nodded, "Come and relax."

"Have you been single all these years?"

Su Li's heart was pricked by this question. She lowered her head, as if she had done something very wrong, and said, "I...I just got divorced." You can imagine how disappointed the other party must be in her at this moment.

, she felt uncomfortable in her heart and her face felt hot.

Gu Ling'an was stunned for a moment, but did not show any disappointed expression. He just looked at her pityingly, and then asked, "Why did you divorce?"

"We can't get along." She answered simply. She didn't want to talk too much about Lu Ning, especially in front of Gu Ling'an, and she didn't want to mention a word about it.

Gu Ling'an comforted her, "It's okay. People will inevitably make mistakes. If they make a mistake, just start over."

Su Li looked up at him cautiously, and saw that his expression was full of concern, and there was absolutely no sign of disappointment or contempt for her. She felt something in her heart and asked, "Are you... married?"

Gu Lingan shook his head, "No."

"So...do you have a girlfriend?"

"No."

Su Li felt happy and sad after hearing this. She was happy that he was single, but sad that the other party seemed to be holding on to the beautiful relationship she once had, while she went off to marry another man.

She looked at him with shame, and there was a beam of light shining on the top of his head. The soft golden color made him look so beautiful.

Su Li immediately felt that she was really not worthy of him at all.

She lowered her head to eat the noodles, feeling uncomfortable in her heart. She couldn't help but think that if she were unmarried, maybe she could muster up the courage to ask him at this moment, "Can we start over?"

But she wasn't, she was divorced and had slept with another man for many years. Maybe Gu Ling'an wouldn't care about this, but she did, and it seemed to be a shameful betrayal.

Gu Lingan said at this time, "Li Wei's brother came to see me a while ago."

Su Li was very nervous after hearing this, "What did he say to you?" Remembering that man once said that he would not allow Gu Ling'an to be happy for the rest of his life, she was very worried, "Did he stop you from falling in love again?"

After asking what I realized, I thought to myself, "Is it because of this that he remains single today? Rather than holding on to the relationship he had at the beginning?" When I thought about this, I felt happy and sad at the same time. What I was happy about was that he was not single because he was holding on to the relationship.

, then his marriage is not a betrayal. What is sad is that his singleness is not because he loves her very much.

Gu Ling'an said, "He went to jail five years ago for theft. After he came out, he matured a lot and reformed. Now he is a project manager of a construction company."

Su Li was very happy for him when she heard this.

Gu Ling'an continued, "When he met me, he mainly apologized for preventing me from falling in love before, and hoped that I would visit his sister more often when I have time."

Su Li felt very relieved, "He is finally sensible."

Gu Ling'an nodded, looked at her, and changed the subject, "In recent years, I have lost a lot of money starting my business."

Su Li was stunned and immediately said, "I'll lend you as much as you need." She was willing to give him all her savings.

Gu Lingan shook his head, "Do you still like me?"

The topic changed so quickly that it took Su Li a while to react. She blushed and didn't dare to look at him. "I... like it." The last two words were spoken very quietly, but Gu Lingan could tell from the shape of her mouth.

Seeing that, he stretched out his hand to hold her hand and said seriously as if he was swearing, "What I want to say to you about losing money in starting a business is that after I pay off the debt, if you are still willing to follow me,

I will marry you."

Su Li's breathing paused for two seconds, and then her heart started beating loudly, "You..." She couldn't believe what she heard, "You... you want to marry me?"

Gu Lingan nodded, his expression serious and not like he was joking at all.

"But..." Su Li lowered her head, "Do you mind if I'm divorced?" When she was planning to divorce, Chen Xi told her a lot of things like "It's hard for divorced women to be accepted." Now she

Very interested.

Gu Ling'an smiled and did not answer. He only asked, "Then do you mind that I used to be a gangster?"

Su Li shook her head without hesitation, "I don't mind at all."

"That's right, if you truly love someone, you won't care about their past."

Su Li was stunned there, then her eyes became hot and she had the urge to cry, "You...you still love me?"

"Yeah." He nodded, his eyes full of affection.

Su Li's tears fell immediately. They were tears of joy. It was great that her boy still loved her after so many years. What a wonderful thing.

Gu Lingan was frightened by her tears and picked up the paper to wipe her, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head, "I was so excited at the moment."

Gu Ling'an smiled after hearing this, "You are the same as before, you really haven't changed at all."

She thought of herself that she had just seen on the glass window today, "Don't you think I'm a lot older?"

"I don't think, in my opinion, you are still the simple girl you were in the past."

Su Li's eyes turned red again, and she looked at him, "You haven't changed, you are still the beautiful young man you used to be."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the distance instantly closed, filling up the gap of more than ten years.

Many years later, when Su Li was so old that she had to rely on crutches to walk, she still remembered everything in the noodle shop.

************

When I finished eating the noodles and left the noodle shop, the street outside was wet, the rain had stopped, and the street lights were on one after another, the lights were dim and it felt very warm.

Gu Ling'an asked her, "Where do you live? I'll take you there."

Su Li never liked to trouble others, but he was an exception. She immediately told him the name of the hotel, and he held her hand and said, "Let's go to the roadside to catch a ride."

"good."

As we walked and talked, Gu Ling'an said, "I originally bought a car, but after the failure, I sold the car."

Su Li felt the warmth from his palm and felt happy in her heart, "I can buy it again in the future."

"Well, if you try harder, maybe you can make a comeback."
