Not Cold [Interstellar] - Chapter 7
Mrs. Jasmine.
In the last life, Ke Wei has only seen this woman twice. For the first time, she and Ke Wei passed by. Ke Wei just glanced at her without paying too much attention.
The second time I saw this woman again was when Ke Wei woke up after a long sleep in the Central Holy See, and found that he had been asleep for ten years.
In the past ten years, the Galactic Empire has struggled with military and political affairs, and the government has been in a state of immobility, and too many changes have taken place.
Ke Wei was absent for a full ten years.
He suppressed the panic in his heart, and opened the news message to quickly check it.
Ke Wei only glanced at the headlines of that day, and his world was dim.
“Marshal Zhong Yue’s wife is in ill health and is absent from the imperial military exercise again!”
“Zhong Yue avoided talking about his wife, Mrs. Marshal’s mysterious origin, and his identity became a mystery.”
In his eighth year of sleep, Zhong Yue held a wedding without warning.
It was too late when he woke up, Zhong Yue had been married for two years.
The whole wedding was not public, and Zhong Yue was very low-key. The outflow of the wedding holographic projection is just a short fragment, which was secretly photographed by a reporter.
In that segment, Jasmine, who was standing next to Zhong Yue, finally took off the veil of mystery. She was dressed up and dressed in a bridal gown, showing half of her profiled face, with outstanding demeanor.
The man she was holding in her hand was Zhong Yue.
Mrs. Jasmine in a wedding dress and Mrs. Jasmine in a black veil overlapped in front of Ke Wei’s eyes.
His hand holding the photo was shaking slightly.
Ke Wei still can’t accept it, the time that ten years slipped away quietly. For him, he was the lover who was still lingering on the ears a few days ago, and when he opened his eyes, he had become someone else’s husband.
The appearance of Mrs. Jasmine shattered all the unspeakable expectations in his heart to ashes.
Uneasy Ke Wei suddenly understood that the person who saved him on HS-464 must be Zhong Yue. And Zhong Yue’s arrival on this planet was not accidental at all, because there was something about Mrs. Jasmine on this planet.
Zhong Yue would save himself by accident. He probably didn’t want to expose his identity or get into trouble, so after saving him, he didn’t even want to leave his name, so he left silently.
Ke Wei didn’t want to look at the contents of this box anymore. Now he does not have this position and qualifications, to look through Zhong Yue’s things.
He put the things away, put the photo back in the box, and returned silently.
At the same time, Zhong Yue made a cup of tea in his own residence in Capital Star.
It was 3:30 in the morning. The light in the room was dim. Zhong Yue was dressed neatly and sat on the office chair at the table without any sleep.
His personal terminal rang, Zhong Yue looked down and chose to connect.
The holographic projection of the person at the other end immediately appeared in front of Zhong Yue. Zhong Yue held up his teacup and said, “Have you not rested yet?”
Jasmine was dressed in black veil without a veil, and her deep eyes didn’t have a hint of temperature: “You have something to hide from me, Zhong Yue.”
Zhong Yue rubbed his eyebrows: “I did not explain something to you, but I definitely did not deliberately conceal it.”
Jasmine’s eyes suddenly lit up: “Did you… have news from him?”
Zhong Yue hesitated for a few seconds, and said frankly: “Yes, I learned that before he left here, he buried something, probably a box. But I’m not sure where this box is, so I want to tell you if I find it. So as not to make you happy.”
“Where is that box now?”
“It is basically certain that it is on the planet HS-464, but the environment of the planet HS-464 is bad. The surface of the planet is full of radioactive deserts. It is very difficult to detect and excavate the boxes. I don’t want to attract the attention of others, so I have only been there. Several times. But there has been a crash here recently. Someone may be investigating and walking around. I have thought about it for a while before continuing to look for it.”
“No, I’ll go over in a while and look for it myself.”
Knowing that this was the result, Zhong Yue said with a wry smile: “Don’t blame me for pouring cold water on you. In that place, you can find it within a few years, and I’m afraid you won’t find it.”
Jasmine calmly said, “It doesn’t matter, I have used it for fifty years. I must have found it, right?”
Zhong Yue frowned, this detail was weakly captured by Jasmine.
Jasmine stared at him without blinking, “Zhong Yue, don’t you…you don’t want me to find this box at all?”
Zhong Yue sighed and said softly: “He has already left, you should come out and look forward.”
Jasmine still had no expression on her face, but her voice was gentle: “Why do you say that? He has been in my heart, every minute and every second, and never left.”
Zhong Yue held the teacup in his hand, just so startled in a daze. Jasmine looked at him and suddenly said, “Xiao Yue, what is it that makes you so embarrassed?”
Zhong Yue smiled bitterly: “Is it so obvious?”
“I’ve never seen you so mindless. If you just say a few words, you don’t know where your mind is going.”
Zhong Yue smiled lightly, and after a while, he softly pleaded: “Sister, please stay with me for a while.”
Jasmine said softly: “Xiaoyue, you have grown up. Many times my sister doesn’t understand your current thoughts.”
The stars and lights outside the house gently flew over Zhong Yue’s body, and the gaze that was more than a quarter of an hour was full of nostalgia and tenderness.
“Sister, there is a person in my heart, just like you, every minute and every second, I always care about it.”
Jasmine’s eyes widened in surprise.
“I dare not love him, but I can’t control my own feelings. You may not believe it. The moment I saw him, I knew the end of me and him… He will do it for his faith, his future, his The owner betrayed me.”
“In the years he left, I have been waiting for him. I have been lucky enough to wait for our chance to get back together. Until the end I heard from others that he was engaged to someone else.”
“He asked me out before getting married. I knew it was a trap… I still jumped in without hesitation. I just want to see him and talk to him.”
“But I didn’t wait for him. What was waiting for me there was a cold bullet. I haven’t seen him yet, and I haven’t had time to tell him…”
Zhong Yue didn’t say that sentence, he grabbed his hair severely in pain and buried his face in his hands.
Jasmine leaned down and gently touched Zhong Yue’s head. The image of her body passed through Zhong Yue’s body, turning into lights and shadows scattered and gathered. Zhong Yuexu held her hand and slowly calmed down.
After a long, long time, Zhong Yue said hoarsely: “Now I just want to forget him, and run away from him far and far away…but fate has gone wrong. He is in everybody who shouldn’t be by my side. The timing has all appeared by my side.”
Zhong Yue said bitterly: “Sister, I can’t escape, I don’t know… what to do.”
Jasmine was silent for a long time before speaking slowly, “The Xiaoyue I know, even if he is lost for a while, he will quickly clarify his direction.”
“Since you said you were stuck and couldn’t escape, then face it.”
Zhong Yue’s handsome eyebrows stared at Jasmine blankly, the spirit that haunted her eyebrows in the past faded away, becoming a little more childish.
Jasmine’s hand fell lightly, patted his face without any touch.
“I don’t know how you know… what you said, your future ending. I only know that nothing is immutable. Every second in the future is constantly being rewritten. Only change is eternal. When you do it, you are already changing it.”
“Xiaoyue, you haven’t done enough. If you love him well, he will not lose you. If he is really an uninfluenced person and he still made the same choice in the end, then you…don’t give His opportunity.”
Then you don’t give him such an opportunity.
Jasmine’s words were like a shock of thunder that struck Zhong Yue’s divine consciousness, causing him to inspire and almost jumped out of his chair.
Jasmine said with emotion: “Xiaoyue, if your master is here, he will not want to see you so trapped.”
Zhong Yue said: “If my master can be brave, you don’t have to be so sad.”
Jasmine was stunned.
Zhong Yue grabbed his coat, got up and left: “You don’t want to say thank you, I will help you find Master’s relics together. Sister, I’ll talk another day, I’ll go ahead.”
