The Director of Music Department

Chapter 22: .Do you believe in an afterlife?

Once again, I came to the mountain full of lilac flowers. This time, Lilac took Shi Lei and his colleagues from the company to climb the mountain behind the school. There were also lilac lilacs blooming there. The beauty was refreshing.

There is a small temple on the top of the mountain, and everyone makes wishes in the small temple, and Ding Xiang and Shi Lei are also making wishes.

Shi Lei asked her what she wished, but she just laughed and said nothing.

Suddenly she asked: "Do you believe in an afterlife?"

I don't know why, but Shi Lei felt that the cloves at this moment seemed a little nervous. He didn't know if it was his own illusion.

He turned her head to look at her, but she quickly opened her eyes and looked at the Buddha statue in the temple. The half-squinted smiling eyes of the Buddha statue seemed to penetrate the past and present of the two.

The camera gave Ding Xiang a close-up of her hand, and she held her small fist tightly, seeming to be really nervous.

Shi Lei gave an affirmative answer: "I believe it!"

Lilac's small fist was released, and a sweet smile appeared on her face again. She turned her head and looked at him and said, "I believe it too!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

When descending the mountain, they walked far behind everyone, shoulder to shoulder, silent, he suddenly stopped, tightly grasped her slender shoulders, and looked at Lilac with hot eyes.

Expectantly asked: "Ding Xiang, make me a promise for this life, can you?"

I don't know why, the audience in the theater suddenly looks a little like Shi Lei at this moment, and they all seem a little nervous.

Lilac raised her head, her eyes were already flushed without knowing when, she raised her hand and gently stroked his handsome face.

Shi Lei smiled, and the audience in the cinema also smiled knowingly, thinking she would definitely agree. They have experienced so much together, he no longer stands above others for her, no longer rejects people thousands of miles away, and even changes for her My lifestyle has changed my attitude towards life and love.

And she, cut the steak for him, played a song of nature for him, and laughed with him among the lilac flowers. Everything is combined, it means that everything will come naturally.

But the result is...

Lilac shook his head lightly, her eyes dodging slightly.

She refused!

This is unexpected by many people, including Shi Lei, including the audience in the cinema.

They don't know why Lilac would refuse.

Obviously, I think she likes him too, and they obviously like each other, but why, she refused?

Shi Lei's face turned pale after brushing, and he also asked the audience's question: "Why?"

She turned around, and as far as she could see were the rolling mountains, verdant and bright. It was the blue sky, the lilac flowers all over the mountains, and the smiles of each child. She raised her head against the wind and slowly spread her arms. Her delicate face was bathed in sunlight. She just said: "Because I belong here."

It seems that everything is understood.

Shi Lei looked at Ding Xiang, let out a desperate growl in his throat, and then fled away quickly, like a wounded lone wolf, silently licking the wound.

She slid weakly on the ground, and tears began to fall uncontrollably.

At this moment, there was a noise in the cinema, and one could vaguely hear: "How could she be like this?"

"Even if you are reluctant to give up your children, you don't have to be so unfeeling, right?"

"It hurts to see Shi Lei's desperate look."

"Yeah, I suddenly hate her a bit, what should I do?"

"No, the song "Lilac Flower" seems to sing'The grave is full of flowers', won't it..."

Suddenly many people came back to their senses and began to have a bad feeling. The atmosphere and plot created by the previous film made everyone forget. This is a movie of the same name "Lilac".

And "Lilac" itself is a tragic song, so, is doomed "Lilac" will also be a tragedy?

Reminiscing about the abnormality of Lilac before, the noise in the theater suddenly disappeared, all eyes were fixed on the big screen.

The next day, Ding Xiang said goodbye to everyone, they all reluctantly asked her: "Have you really stayed?"

She just smiled and nodded. Everyone shook hands and hugged her one by one, and got into the car.

Only Shi Lei remained at the end, Ding Xiang walked towards him. Looking up at him, she could see that her eyes were full of dismay.

Her eyes started to wet.

Dingxiang showed a sweet smile and said with a little choking, "Goodbye, Shi Lei."

Shi Lei looked at her, stretched out his hand, trying to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but in the end he still retracted his hand, and his eyes started to turn red.

But, soon, he returned to his calm and indifferent. He nodded and turned a thousand words into a simple sentence: "Treasure." Then they got into the car, they waved goodbye, Shi Lei turned away.

As the car drifted away, her soul seemed to begin to drift out of the body, and fragments of the past floated in her mind.

The camera began to return to the first meeting with him. At that newcomer meeting, he stood proudly on the high platform, smiled and nodded and said, "Hello everyone!"

The picture flashed and came to the meeting room. His first dispute with her...

In the amusement park, on the roller coaster, he yelled hysterically and in horror, and she laughed beside him.

For the first time since I came to this small country, he asked her among the lilac flowers: "Why are you called lilac? Is it because of this?"

The last picture shows him expectingly asking: "Dingxiang, can you make me a promise in this life?" And after being rejected by himself, that desperate wailing...

Suddenly, all the pictures began to blur, and she suddenly fainted to the ground...

......

In the metropolis, Shi Lei has changed back to the cold, handsome, talented, and strategizing man he hadn't encountered before Ding Xiang.

After get off work, Shi Lei came to the bar again.

"So, are you broken in love?" The bartender asked with a glass of wine with a smile.

Shi Lei laughed self-deprecatingly and said: "No, I don't have one, because I have never been in love before, so how can I lose love?"

"Hehe, I invite you for this glass, to love!" The bartender smiled and lifted the glass and said.

"Respect for love? Haha!" Shi Lei drank it.

The next day, it was like a reincarnation, as if everything had returned to the starting point, and back to the beginning. Shi Lei walked into the company, still with a smile that turned away from others, and was indifferent to all the charming girls.

In the office, the assistant sent a bunch of letters.

Shi Lei suddenly saw a familiar signature: "Clove!"

He quietly looked at the sender's envelope with "lilac" written on it.

Take a deep breath, reach out and pick up the envelope, tear it open...

What caught my eye was a photo with the familiar sweet smiling face appearing on it, against the background of familiar lilac flowers.

Another piece of paper was poured out of the envelope.

For some reason, the audience in the theater suddenly had a bad feeling.
