Chapter 12: Then Fall in Love with Me
Gu Tingchen's eyes looked at me very persistently, I sometimes find it difficult to understand what he is like now?
Why do you pretend to care about me when you're divorced......
I pulled my hand from his palm, tried to calm myself and said, "It's nothing, maybe I'm born with a lack of love, thinking about spending money to buy love, anyway, I haven't done this kind of thing before." ”
After a pause, I stared at his black and white eyes and said, "I once bought a marriage with you with the Shi family, but now it's just to buy love." ”
"Then make a love affair with me. ”
The bag in my hand fell to the ground, and I asked in amazement, "What did you say?"
"I fall in love with you, pretend to love you, spoil you, hold you in the palm of my hand, let you experience happiness, and I will not disobey you, and be a qualified boyfriend until the eve of my marriage. ”
Wake up in a word, man in a dream.
He's someone else's groom, even if I'm unbearable, even if I find a random man on the street, I don't want this person to be him, and I gave him a chance before the divorce.
Besides, his tone now is like charity, pity.
I really want his love, I want it, I would rather be crushed, but I refused, maybe because of the ridiculous self-esteem in my heart.
I left the Gu family villa almost embarrassed, and after returning to Shi's house, I have been hiding in the room, and I pretended not to see the text messages sent to me by Gu Tingchen.
I couldn't reply to him, "Why are you running?"
He loved Wen Ruyan in his heart and was the groom of that woman.
If he had said that before the divorce, I would have been ecstatic.
But now that everything is wrong, I don't need his mercy and charity.
I don't need to, even if I'm lonely to death!
For the next week, I hid in Shi's villa and didn't go anywhere, my condition became more and more serious, and I didn't have any energy many times, and I lay lazily in bed all day.
lived a chaotic life until Ji Nuan called me.
She asked me to accompany her to the countryside to meet Chen Chusheng.
She said she didn't have the courage and was afraid that he would refuse.
I said yes and made an appointment to meet later.
It seems that habitually, I went out with exquisite makeup, and when I arrived at the teahouse, I saw Ji Nuan wearing very plain clothes.
White shirt, blue jeans, no makeup.
It's a world away from her before.
I was surprised, "It's rare to see you without makeup." ”
Ji Nuan said with a nervous expression: "He hasn't seen me wearing makeup, and I've heard that his current family conditions are very bad, I'm afraid he ......."
I asked directly, "Are you afraid that he will feel inferior in the face of you?"
She smiled hard and said, "I don't want to put pressure on him. ”
"You're still going to put pressure on him. ”
I'm speaking very directly, but it's also realistic.
Chen Chusheng was able to ruthlessly avoid Ji Nuan seven or eight years ago.
What's more, she's radiant now?
Hearing this, Ji Nuan was silent, and then urged me to change my clothes and remove my makeup.
I didn't have any rebuttal, I found a simple set of clothes to change into, Ji Nuan was still not satisfied when I saw it, I patiently changed one set of clothes after another, she was still frowned and dissatisfied.
In the end, she compromised: "It's not about the clothes. ”
I raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's that?"
She shook her head and said sadly, "It's never been a matter of clothes. Sheng'er, your beauty is innate, and your spontaneous temperament can't be hidden, just like me...... It's the same with a change of clothes. ”
Ji Nuan was afraid of putting pressure on Chen Chusheng, so he didn't dare to see him recently.
Today, I finally got the courage to retreat again.
I encouraged her and said, "Why don't you try?"
Ji Nuan asked me hopefully, "Will he reject me?"
"No, at least the politeness he should have. ”
There is always a gap between imagination and reality, when Ji Nuan and I rushed to the town full of anticipation, we were finally stopped by his grandmother, we talked about it, and she let us in.
That was the first time I saw Chen Chusheng, wearing a shabby down jacket, sitting in a wheelchair with no legs, and staring blankly at a dry plum tree in the courtyard.
Chen Chusheng's face was extremely haggard, and his face was full of fine scars, seeing him like this, Ji Nuan couldn't control herself from crying silently, I could understand the trembling in her heart.
Ji Nuan slowly approached and shouted, "Chen Chusheng." ”
Her voice was very soft and soft, for fear of disturbing him.
Chen Chusheng's expression seemed to be stunned for a moment, he slowly turned his head to look at Ji Nuan, his eyes were cloudy, and he asked unfamiliarly: "Who are you......?"
Ji Nuan was stunned and suddenly at a loss.
I hurriedly asked, "Do you know Ji Nuan?"
He smiled like a big boy who didn't know the sinister things of the world, and showed a mouthful of big white teeth and asked, "Who is Ji Nuan?"
Hearing this, Ji Nuan's messy eyes looked at Chen Chusheng's grandmother, and the old man sighed and said, "He is often like this, and I don't know if he is stupid." ”
Chen Chusheng's grandmother's tone only had the helplessness worn down by the years, and she seemed to be no stranger to Chen Chusheng's appearance.
Ji Nuan didn't say anything, but looked at Chen Chusheng fixedly.
It seemed to be trying to find a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
After a long time, Ji Nuan took the lead and said, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
She and I turned back to Wucheng, and in the car Ji Nuan said firmly: "He is not stupid, he recognizes me, I saw the struggle in his eyes." ”
"Then you ......"
"He didn't want to recognize me. ”
It seems that some decision has been made, after returning to Wucheng, Ji Nuan wants to transfer the teahouse out, I asked her solemnly, "Has it been decided? Even if the family does not agree, everyone looks down on him, do you want to rely on him? For the rest of your life, you will take care of a man who can't take care of himself?"
Ji Nuan nodded, and said to me firmly: "Ji Nuan should have died eight years ago, and the life he is alive now is originally his, it's okay if he doesn't recognize me, it's okay to pretend to be stupid, I just want to follow him in this life, as long as I can see him every day and accompany him, I can endure no matter how big the pain is." I even firmly believe that I will be happy in the future, I will really be happy, I feel that I am happy now, at least until I know that he is alive, I thought that I would not love again in this life, and I would no longer have the feeling of heartbeat, but now...... Sheng'er, as long as he Chen Chu is here, I, Ji Nuan, am a flesh-and-blood woman. ”
The word happiness, Ji Nuan said it three times.
But to leave everything behind to follow Chen Chusheng, money is indispensable, because in the days to come, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, unlike piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and wine, all kinds of tricks require money.
I thought for a moment and reminded her, "I put a bank card next to your computer a week ago, and you should know that I left it but never asked for my password." ”
Ji Nuan pursed her lips and said, "I know the password." ”
Hearing this, I laughed and said, "You still understand me." ”
