Chapter 9 When the weather is cold and the weather is not cold
Two days later, Qiao Yan came back from work and sat on the sofa with a depressed face.
I sensitively asked, "What's wrong?".”
She hid her face, and after a long time, she said indignantly: "I was invited to coffee with a few colleagues by the boss, saying that the benefits have not been good recently, and we may have to lay off employees, and I hope we are psychologically prepared." ”
After a while, she said again: "Ning Hao is also inside." ”
I chuckled in my heart, but I didn't say anything.
Two days later, I went to the nursing home to see Aunt An as usual, but the building was empty.
In the cold winter air, I stood in a messy courtyard, and listened blankly to the old Xu Xu chatter, who was the gatekeeper: "This piece of land has been bought by the Long's Group, saying that it is going to build a golf course, and all the personnel will be dismissed
I felt a chill that was chilling to my bones, and I almost cut off his words rudely: "What about Aunt An?."”
He suddenly remembered something, scratched his head, and said apologetically: "Ah forgot, your aunt gave me an address before leaving yesterday." ”
Aunt An asked me, "Sang Xiao, why did you change me to such a good place?"”
I looked around, this is a high-level sanatorium, winding paths, fresh air, dense forests, green trees and red tiles, dotted with dozens of villas of various styles, Aunt An lives in a standard suite, a huge room, all kinds of facilities, 24 hours equipped with **, like a five-star hotel.
Seeing that I didn't answer, Aunt An smiled all over her face, and said with some apprehension and embarrassment: "Sang Xiao, to be honest, the conditions here are much better than the original one, the original ** loves to ignore it, and the injection hurts terribly, and often gives us water that can't be boiled, and I keep having diarrhea when I drink it, sometimes I am unhappy, and I will keep scolding us unrelentingly" She suddenly remembered something, with a worried and helpless face, "But Sang Xiao, will it be very expensive here?"”
I looked at the deep scar on her unintentionally exposed arm, my eyes ached, and the pain in my heart spread endlessly.
I thought I had given her the best I could, and who knows, still deeply indebted to her.
The dreary twilight of winter, with a thick chill, little by little, invaded the deepest part of my bone marrow. I subconsciously wrapped my scarf tightly and walked out the door.
A black sedan was parked at the main entrance, and a person was reclining next to it. His posture is languid. The kind of laziness I hate.
That's a devil.
I bowed my head and walked with a blank face.
The moment I crossed his side, he grabbed me, stuffed me into the car before I could react, got into the car, and locked the door quickly.
After driving for a while, the car suddenly stopped.
He got out of the car first, and then dragged me down, when I got out of the car, I found that I had reached a corner of the river, high by the embankment, the small waves were wrapped in a strong chill, beating one by one, and the fishing fires in the distance could not bring any warmth.
He squeezed my shoulders with both hands, and I was almost crumbling by his pinch, and I looked at him resentfully, desperately trying to suppress the urge to spit in his face. It was him, this devil, who made me feel like a prey who had been brutally forced up the cliff by him, and I felt small, ridiculous, and hopeless helpless all the time.
He looked at me too, and there was a thick haze on his face, and his eyes flashed with the same resentment that I didn't understand.
He kissed it out of the blue.
My anger had reached a tipping point, I struggled to scratch his face, I kicked him, hit him, bit him.
This time he didn't back down, he grabbed me by the shoulders and bit me back, and we were entangled like beasts with a deep hatred for each other.
I smelled so much blood that I couldn't tell if it was mine or his.
I don't care about any pain anymore, I just know that I desperately need to vent, to vent all the anger and resentment in my heart that has reached the extreme.
I don't know how long it took, he finally let go of me, but his hand was still squeezing me hard, he looked at me, and said gloomily: "Yu Sangxiao, how long do you want to hold on?"”
I was speechless, I only felt that my body was cold, coupled with the sweat of Fang Cai's struggle, and under the blowing of the river breeze, it was even more chilly. Almost subconsciously, I slowly slid against the tree behind me until I sat on the ground. I buried my head deep in my knees, my hair scattered in a mess. After all the struggle, I must look like a madman.
So what?The Long Feimo in front of him, from his hints to his father, to his toughness to Qiao Yan, to his tenderness to Aunt An, pressed towards me step by step. He definitely has extremely complex scheming and purpose. The only remaining self-esteem and affection, including the little freedom I had hard-won, were ruthlessly trampled on by him.
What he is interested in is my struggle.
What he enjoys is my pain.
I'm not reconciled, I can't be reconciled.
I looked up at him, and he was looking at me, and in the darkness of the night, his eyes were bright, flashing with a sharp and incomprehensible light.
I looked at him like this, and I don't know how long it took, I heard my own voice, low and empty: "Long Feimo, you have almost everything, you don't lack anything, don't play me anymore, okay?"Even if I am an insignificant ant, I have my own humble dignity."
No one answered me, only the whistling wind in my ears.
At some point, my face was damp and cold. My heart was cold to the bone, as if it had been frozen by the cold of ten thousand years. Long Feimo, whether it is his father, brother, Sang Tong, Guan Mu, even Long Feige, he portrayed from their mouths, without exception, is resolute in means, and will never give up until the goal is achieved.
However, I was not reconciled.
I turned my face away, stared blankly into the unknown distance, and after a long time, said, "Give me a reason." ”
I need a reason.
I saw a hand, slowly reaching out to me.
I heard a voice, faint and indistinct, blown by the wind and shattered, unable to capture: "You may have forgotten, once upon a time".
Then I was pulled up hard and fell heavily on top of him, his lips pressed to my ear: "Mulberry," his hand touched my face, and after a moment, he said quietly, "Marrying me may not be such a bad thing." ”
I quietly cleaned up my things on the table.
All the manuscripts were neatly folded by me, the pen holder and folders had already been sorted out, and the table was wiped clean by me.
It's time to get off work, but I keep my head down and still slowly clean up until there is really nothing to clean up. I was still struggling to stand.
Ah Fei jumped over: "Sang Xiao, tomorrow weekend, a few of us will make an appointment to climb the mountain and eat barbecue, will you go?"”
(Tips: The full text ** can be read by clicking on the card at the end of the article).
I smiled and shook my head, "No, you guys go." ”
She looked at me carefully: "Sang Xiao, are you okay, why have you been listless and unable to lift up your energy for the past two days?."She asked, confused, "Broken love?"No, where did you get your boyfriend, it's impossible to quarrel and lose your temper or something, what's wrong with you?”
Before I could answer, she frowned: "Ah, I remembered that the dead pig's head didn't give me a day of **, I think he is dead!."”
Before he finished speaking, he was already flying at the speed of light.
I looked at her back and smiled faintly.
To be young is to have carefree and willful capital.
The moon was bright and the stars were thin, and the magazine office was empty, so I picked up my backpack and walked out.
When it's warm and cold, it's the hardest to breathe.
I walked aimlessly along a trail silently. I just walked quietly, watching a car or bicycle slip past me, and when I came to a fork in the road, I sat down on a row of wooden benches on the side of the road.
I watched silently as a car slid past me;I watched silently at the old man, the child, the lonely young man and the sweet couple walking past me;I listened quietly to all kinds of sounds, from dense to thin, from heavy to light, until they disappeared.
Sitting in the dead of night, I finally got up.
Walking to the almost unfamiliar three-story building, I hesitated for a moment, but still took out the key and prepared to enter the door, when suddenly, a figure flashed from the shadow around the corner, and quietly walked up to me and stopped.
When I saw it, it turned out to be He Yanqing, who I hadn't seen for a long time.
He looked at me: "Mulberry." ”
I nodded, "Hello." ”
His face was half-hidden in the shadows, and I couldn't make out his expression, he just looked at me, and after a long time, said softly, with a little difficulty, "Mulberry, I heard".
I bowed my head, and after a moment of silence, said, "Yes." ”
He didn't speak again.
After a long, long time, I looked up at him and said calmly, "It's late, goodbye." ”
I turned. At this moment, there is no one I want to see more than him.
I had just taken two steps when I heard a voice behind me call softly, "Mulberry." ”
I looked back at him with some puzzlement. He slowly stepped forward, hung his head for a moment, and handed me a box: "Maybe you forgot, a long time ago".
Before he could finish speaking, he had already turned and walked away quickly, and the moment he turned his face sideways, I could clearly see a glitter in his eyes.
Under the soft lamp, I sat at the table and opened the box, and after looking at it for a long time, I gently closed it.
Trekking through the long river of memory, on the other side was a young man's slightly apprehensive voice: "Hey, by that time, Sang Xiao, what special gift do you want?".”
A crisp girl's voice sounded a little shyly: "Hmm, let me think about it".
After a long time, it was still the same young man, who was really tormented to wait, and shouted with straight eyebrows: "Hey, do you want to think of the Year of the Monkey and the Moon?"”
The girl blushed and argued, "People just have to think about it," and her voice gradually lowered, muttering, "No matter how you say it, it's only once in a lifetime."
The young man held his breath, and after a moment, his voice softened: "Then you think slowly, when the time comes, whatever you want," his head slowly bowed, "Sang Xiao, I promise you everything." ”
It turned out that he had come to fulfill his promise.
Inside the box, there is a pair of limited-edition alfredteddy.
I tossed and turned in bed for a long day, never able to sleep, I sighed, slowly looked around, and finally left the place where I had been for almost a year.
When I left, I didn't think I'd come back.
My childhood, my youth, my youth used to be spent here, and it came to a short end until the night.
I really couldn't sleep, so I simply got out of bed, quietly went downstairs, and thought of pouring a glass of water in the kitchen.
Holding the cup in the dark, I just turned around, and with a "snap", the light came on.
I subconsciously raised my hand to cover the slightly dazzling light, and when I got used to it, I found Sang Hitomi leaning on the door looking at me.
The corners of her lips hooked slightly: "What, finally willing to deign to come back for this last night?."She smiled lightly, "It seems that grandpa's bitter meat tricks are getting better and better." I'll just say, how important is the face of the Yu family, how could the second miss of the Yu family, who has climbed to the high branch, be left in a hurry to leave the cabinet, not to mention."
She turned around lightly, sat down on a chair, and put one hand on her cheek: "It's your future husband's face, isn't it?"”
I drank quietly and did not answer.
She didn't care, turned her face sideways, looked slightly drunk, and her face was faintly flushed: "You must be happy in your heart now, right?"What a thorough revenge, what a clever desire to capture and indulge, what a runaway marriage that does not touch the smell of worldly copper, and so many scheming, do you think you will be happy?She smiled lightly, "Yu Sangxiao, how much do you know about Long Feimo?"Do you know how ruthless and resolute he is?Do you know how stringent the conditions are implied in the guarantee agreement provided by Long's Group?It's ridiculous that my second uncle and your father still think that he has a lot of light on his precious daughter," she looked at me and kept saying with a little playfulness, "Also, do you know about his private life, including his beautiful special assistant?"
I thought I was stupid, but it turns out that you are even more stupid than me. Ah, by the way, since we are all in the same family, I might as well give you a piece of advice. Don't worry, you'll never know what Long Feimo was thinking, and," she smiled more and more softly, "he won't fall in love with anyone, except for himself, you are nothing more than an ornament, a puppet to cover up the dark side of his heart." So, shouldn't I give you a round of applause for the wonderful life you can expect in the future?”
She stared at me and gradually suppressed her smile: "Do you think that all the Yu family members will be grateful to you for this?"Let me tell you, you are a thorn in the heart of the Yu family, and you will always be, do you understand what a thorn is?It hurts when it grows in the flesh, it will rot, and one day, it will be pulled out violently."
I looked up and looked at her for a moment.
I waited for her to continue.
Perhaps, the questions that have been on my mind for so many years will dramatically begin to emerge tonight.
She smiled lightly again: "You probably don't know."
At this moment, I heard a sharp whisper: "Sang Hitomi!".”
I turned around and saw my aunt standing straight at the kitchen door. She stared at the two of us, a trace of nervousness flashed on her face, and after a long time, she seemed to be calm, slowly walked towards Sang Tong, and said gently: "It's late, go back to sleep." ”
