"Yanran, what's wrong?" Xia Mei asked distressedly.

Xia Yanran felt that her heart was so blocked, and the feeling of being lost had always been hidden in the depths of her heart.

It was always hidden before, but at this moment, it was infinitely magnified.

Xia Yanran's father abandoned her mother and her when she was 6 years old. Then, with another woman, they formed another family.

Her mother was out of the house, alone, and took her to live on the top floor of this building.

Eighteen years ago, this tube building was very old. Eighteen years later, the building is still there.

When she was a child, her family was poor, she wore clothes that other people's children didn't want, and she always ate the last rotten vegetables left over from the vegetable market. In the summer, I can't afford to use a fan, and I sweat profusely when it's hot. In winter, I can't afford the heating, and my body is stiff from the cold.

When she was in school, she was the last to pay every time she taught the supplementary tuition fee, and she felt very ashamed.

At the parent-teacher meeting, she never dared to inform her mother, for fear that after her mother appeared, her classmates would laugh at her.

When she was very young, she vowed that when she grew up, she would make a lot of money and marry a rich man.

She has been reading hard since she was a child, and she is reading when other children are playing. While others were sleeping, she was staying up late to read.

All the efforts she made were just to get a scholarship and alleviate her family's financial difficulties!

She was successfully admitted to the best high school in Ninghai, where she met a classmate named He Jinyin.

They were classmates, and he was just as poor as she was, no, to be precise, he was poorer than himself.

Himself, just a single-parent family, he still has a mother, but he doesn't, he is an orphan.

However, he is obviously just an orphan, he is obviously so poor, but she can always see the spirit of never giving up from him, even if he is in the dark, he still wants to be the sun, heat, shine, illuminate himself, and try to illuminate the people around him.

At that time, she was with him, there was so much laughter, and she also thought about going on like this forever.

He spends less time studying than he does, but he studies better than himself.

He was good at singing, and once by the lake in that school, under the willow tree, he once held a rotten guitar that others had discarded and sang 'Li Xianglan' to her.

He was also good at carving, and once on her birthday, he carved a piece of pine wood out of her and gave it to himself.

He was also good at painting, and once, when they went to the seashore in Ninghai, she sat on a stone by the sea, the sea breeze blew her long hair, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on her face, and he engraved her back under the setting sun eternally.

At that time, it was really beautiful.

It is also the happiest time for her life.

However, the good times were short-lived.

Her mother was sick and needed money, tens of thousands of dollars for surgery.

They don't have any money.

Once again, she understood the importance of money.

At that time, there was a rich kid who was pursuing her.

The rich kid made a bet with someone else that he would catch her up within 1 week and let her be his girlfriend for a week. Then, the tens of thousands of dollars, he gave her out.

Xia Yanran agreed!

So, Xia Yanran became the girlfriend of the rich second generation for a week.

Of course, they didn't do anything that week.

The most excessive time was on the day before Christmas, the rich second generation drove a car and invited her to a bar to play.

As soon as she got into the co-pilot, the rich second generation wanted to kiss her, and she hurriedly resisted.

She pushed the rich second generation away, and then got out of the car.

She will always remember that day, when it was raining heavily, and when she opened the car door, she saw a familiar figure running away.

She recognized his back, it was He Jinyin, and the scene just now was seen by him.

In front of her, there was an apple, the apple of Christmas Eve.

However, the apple, which had fallen to the ground, had been broken, and the top was blackened by rain and sludge.

She wanted to catch up and explain to him, but instead, she smiled bitterly.

What can he explain? How can he help himself? He can't help himself, he can't help at all!

So be it, does he think he is really the sun? Does he think that he can really shine and heat up and illuminate himself and the people around him?

No, he's just an orphan, just a poor man. What is his ability to illuminate himself?

He can't even solve his own food and clothing.

He's just, a fool! a fool who can't even care about himself!

She was drenched in heavy rain and silently picked up the apple.

The rich second generation got angry and drove past her in a car.

The car splashed with water, splashing her school uniform wet and dirty.

Since then, He Jinyin has not come to her.

And she didn't take the initiative to find He Jinyin.

Later, after graduating from high school, I heard that when he was in the college entrance examination, he was in a car accident because he saved a little girl, and he didn't take the college entrance examination the next day, because he failed the list and went to a technical school.

When she arrived at the university, she still paid attention to him silently, and heard that after he graduated from the technical school, he returned to Ninghai and became the son-in-law of the Jiang family.

And she is even more determined to become a rich man and marry a rich man.

After she graduated, she returned to Ninghai and met him again.

At that time, she didn't know what psychology she had, every time an excellent man pursued her, she wanted to bring it to him, and then use it to humiliate him.

That way, it will give her some pleasure!

Xia Yanran now thinks about everything, and then thinks of everything about Jiang Xue's birthday banquet today, her heart is so blocked.

Ning Hai's fireworks in the sky were originally meant to bloom for her, but those became someone else's.

That gorgeous seven-colored peony flower should have bloomed for her, but it still became someone else's.

Also, there is the envy of everyone, which originally belonged to her, but now, it has also become someone else's.

"Yanran, what's wrong with you today? Why are you crying? Don't cry, don't cry, mom is here, mom wait, I'll make you braised pork! When you were a child, you liked to eat braised pork the most, do you remember? Once, the braised pork fell to the ground, and you were reluctant to throw it ......away," Xia Mei said.

Xia Yanran suddenly thought of that Christmas Eve, and thought of the apples of that night.

"Mom, I don't want to eat braised pork, I want to eat apples......" Xia Yanran choked up.

"Okay, okay, okay, mom will buy it for you right away. Xia Mei said, walked out of the room, and really went to buy apples.

Suddenly, in this narrow room, Xia Yanran was the only one.

She walked silently to the bedroom, which had a desk from more than ten years ago.

In the desk, there was a drawer, and the drawer was locked.

In that drawer, there were things from Xia Yanran's childhood, and those things were extremely precious to her, so she put them in the drawer and locked them.

She hadn't opened the drawer for a long, long time, as if she hadn't thought about the past for a long, long time.

At this point, she found the key, and then, taking it, walked towards the drawer.

He walked over to the drawer, and in a moment, opened it.

The drawer was pulled open, and it was full of old items, all covered in dust.

Among them, there is also a dried up, even, moldy apple.

She looked at the moldy apple quietly and smiled bitterly.

Something, rotten, should be thrown away, shouldn't it?

Otherwise, if you leave it there, it will only rot more and pollute the surrounding environment.

In addition to this moldy apple, there are many other things inside this drawer.

For example, a wood carving, and a wood carving that he gave to himself back then.

At this point, she picked up the wood carving and looked at it.

The wood carving was a 17 or 8-year-old girl, blushing and wearing a simple, but clean and tidy school uniform.

At that time, she smiled like a flower!

Looking at the smiling wood carving, she suddenly burst into tears.

"Bang bang bang ~~~~" At this time, my mother Jiang Mei had already bought apples and came back.

Pushing open the door, Jiang Mei said, "Yanran, my mother has already bought apples and come back." I also bought two catties of pork, and I'll make braised pork for you!"

With that, Jiang Mei put down the apple, carried the pork, and went to the kitchen to cook.

In the bedroom, Xia Yanran was the only one.

Just now, she turned her back to her mother Jiang Mei, and Jiang Mei didn't see the tears on her face.

Turning her head, she picked up an apple and ate it.

Eating and eating, she cried again!

She lay on that bed, curled up, curled up in a corner.

As a child, every time she was sad, every time, when she felt powerless, she was like this, curled up in that corner.

Turn off the light, huddle in that corner, and let the darkness envelop you.

This time, too, she was curled up in that corner, just like when she was a child.

In her hand, she still held the apple, and gnawed it silently.

It's as if you want to eat all the broken apples that fell on the ground back then.

However, how can Apple be the same many years later as it was many years ago?

......

On the other side, Binjiang Villa 1.

On the balcony of the villa at this moment, there are two people sitting on them, and these two people are naturally He Jinyin and Jiang Xue.

In front of them, there is a bottle of '82-year-old Lafite, and in addition to that, classical music is playing next to it.

The two drank Lafite.

I don't know when the night began to fall, He Jinyin stood up, stretched out his hand, and invited: "Sister Xue, do you want to dance?"

"Okay. Jiang Xue also stood up, and immediately, the two people put their hands on their shoulders and waists and began to dance.

The music kept ringing, and the night began to fall slowly, and the moonlight quietly emerged from the clouds and sprinkled on this earth.

The moon is as cold as water, snubbing who is lonely in the dark?

A song of joy and sorrow, who laughs in the moonlight?
