第28章，命运的交汇薛桐桐南宫祁烈28章

时间飞逝,转眼间已是深秋，南宫祁烈站在庭院中，望着远处那棵古槐树，树影婆娑，斑驳的光影中仿佛还残留着去年的余韵，他轻轻抚摸着树干，指尖传来一阵凉意，记忆如潮水般涌来。

那是去年的这个时候,他第一次遇见薛桐桐，那天，槐树下细雨绵绵，他撑着一把油纸伞，正要往家走，却听见身后传来一阵轻声细语，他转过头，看见薛桐桐正撑着伞，裙摆被风吹起，露出一截修长的脚踝，她身上有淡淡的檀香，那是她最爱用的香水的味道。

"祁烈学长，久仰大名。"她微微一笑，声音清脆悦耳，"听说你是南宫集团的公子，可否赐教？"

南宫祁烈微微一怔,随即露出温和的笑容："薛学妹，你也是来上学的吧？"

薛桐桐的眼眸中闪过一丝羞涩,"是的，我是来上学的。"

就这样,两个素不相识的人开始了他们的相识，薛桐桐是个性格开朗的女孩，总是带着一抹淡淡的笑意，说话时声音轻柔，仿佛带着春风拂面的温柔，而南宫祁烈则是个沉稳内敛的人，总是给人一种稳重踏实的感觉，说话时语气沉稳，仿佛带着山川河流的厚重。

命运似乎早已安排好了一切,那日之后，薛桐桐开始频繁地出现在他的生活中，从图书馆到实验室，从运动场到图书馆，她总是会在合适的时间出现在他面前，她会帮他整理文件，会帮他解答问题，甚至会帮他搬东西，他的生活因此变得不再单调，而是充满了温暖和活力。

随着时间的推移,薛桐桐的出现频率逐渐增加，而南宫祁烈的生活却似乎被她彻底改变了，他开始注意到她的眼神，开始注意到她身上独特的气质，她总是带着一丝淡淡的忧郁，仿佛在等待什么，又仿佛在等待他。

"祁烈学长，你最近是不是有什么心事？"薛桐桐有一天突然问他，声音依旧清脆悦耳，"我听说你最近总是低着头，走路时也不像以前那样轻松了。"

南宫祁烈微微一笑,"没什么，只是最近工作上有些压力，需要多加锻炼。"

薛桐桐的眼眸中闪过一丝担忧,"学长，你这样下去可怎么办？"

南宫祁烈轻声一笑,"我...我总是担心自己会累倒。"

薛桐桐的眼中闪过一丝同情,"学长，你这样下去可不行，你得经常锻炼，保持好的身体状态。"

南宫祁烈轻声说道："谢谢学妹的关心，不过我...我其实并不需要这样的关心。"

薛桐桐的眼眸中闪过一丝失望,"可是学长，你这样下去，我怎么办？"

南宫祁烈轻声一笑,"我...我会好好的。"

事实却并非如此,南宫祁烈的生活并没有想象中那么顺利，他的工作压力越来越大，身体状况也不容乐观，他开始频繁地感到疲惫，甚至有时候连基本的工作都无法完成。

薛桐桐 noticing this, she immediately went to see him. She had never seen him so tired before, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the worried expression on his face.

"祁烈学长，你...你看起来很累。" she said softly, "你是不是有什么心事？"

South宫祁烈 sighed deeply, "I...I have been thinking about something. It's not easy, and I don't know what to do."

Xu Tongsong's eyes filled with concern, "You should... you should talk to me. I'm here to help you. Whatever is on your mind, just say it."

South宫祁烈 took a deep breath and finally spoke, "I...I love you, Xu Tongsong."

Xu Tongsong's heart leaped, "祁烈学长, you're... you're telling me... you love me?"

South宫祁烈 smiled gently, "Yes, I do. I've been thinking about you, about how much you mean to me, and I can't wait to spend more time with you."

Xu Tongsong's eyes filled with tears, "You... you're the one I've been waiting for. I love you too,祁烈学长."

The two of them embraced each other in a passionate moment, filled with love and warmth. That night, they stayed up late, talking about their future, their plans, and the life they wanted to create together.

But as the years went by, their life took an unexpected turn. The pressure at work became even greater, and South宫祁烈's health began to deteriorate rapidly. He often felt like he was running on empty, and every step he took was a battle.

Xu Tongsong noticed this, and she would always be by his side, offering her help whenever he needed it. She would cook him his favorite meals, take him to the park, and just be there for him, supporting him in every way she could.

But as time went on, their relationship became more and more complicated. The love they shared was real, but it was also accompanied by a lot of conflict and challenges. There were times when they argued, when they disagreed, but they always managed to find a way to resolve their differences, to make things right.

One day, as they walked through the city, Xu Tongsong looked into South宫祁烈's eyes and saw a look of pain and weariness. She knew then that he was going through a very difficult time, and she wanted to protect him as much as she could.

"祁烈学长, I love you. No matter what happens, I will always be here for you," she said softly, "I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and I don't want you to suffer in the end."

South宫祁烈's eyes filled with tears, "Xu Tongsong, I love you too. I want to make sure that you have a happy life, and I will do everything in my power to make that happen."

The two of them stood there, holding hands, and knew that their future was together. They would face whatever challenges came their way, and they would do it together, side by side.

As they walked away from each other that night, Xu Tongsong couldn't help but feel a sense of peace. She knew that her time with South宫祁烈 was ending, but she also knew that she had given him everything she had, everything she could offer.

South宫祁烈, on the other hand, knew that his time was also coming to an end, but he had made a decision that he would never regret. He had chosen to love her, to be with her, and to create a life together.

And so, they said their final goodbyes, and分离了, but their hearts were filled with love and warmth, knowing that they had shared a beautiful and meaningful life together.
