Chapter 99: Crime and Punishment (1)
Let's get married.
Zibei was stunned, along with the air around her, the breath in her chest, and Xiao Yi's appearance at that moment.
She slurred and repeated to him in disbelief, "You're getting married, aren't you?"
He nodded, his eyes full of determination.
At that moment, Zibei's tears flowed down, she threw herself into his arms, she couldn't say a word, she didn't know what to say, so many years of grievances, so many years of hard work, so many years of waiting, today finally fruited a plump fruit.
"After hesitating for a long, long time, I finally found that I still wanted to do more beautiful things with a person, go to the places I wanted to go, and watch the whole life like a play. "His voice is magnetic and tender.
Zibei couldn't stop nodding while crying, she believed him, although she didn't know anything about this man's past, but this didn't stop her from being infatuated with him. She adored him so much that she could not extricate herself, and even when she saw his name on the signature line of a document, she would gasp and her heart beat wildly, for fear that others would see such a strong reaction to her.
Perhaps, God is favored by herself, this is Zibei's deepest feeling, she often tells him before going to bed: "Maybe, God is very favored by me!" As long as we love each other, what is the big deal about his past, what they want to create is a future that only belongs to two people!
The Iron Tree is blooming, can you believe it? This is the first post Zibei wrote on her blog to commemorate their love.
After seven years of itching, they are as loving as ever. Xiao Yi's career is booming, and it won't take long for him to become a pivotal figure in the institute, Uncle Xu is about to retire, and he is preparing to let the energetic Xiao Yi take over his mission.
Zibei's age is not young, whenever the two want to be warm, she will always pester him to have children, although this kind of words are not appropriate, but the husband and wife are a family, why care so much? Zibei has no children for seven years, Zibei is really anxious, relatives and friends are anxious, and even neighbors are anxious for her. Sometimes when she faces the mirror and sees her aging face day by day, there is always a sadness in her heart, which is a sorrow that only belongs to women. Her husband is getting better and better outside, and there are more and more admirers around her, everything makes her panic, and she begins to want a child, stabilize their relationship, and add a deeper layer of warmth to the relationship. It's just that Lu Yi doesn't think so, he thinks that while he is young, he should cherish the romantic time when there are only two people, and the child should wait until his career is stable and his young and vigorous heart calms down.
So he always said, "I'm not ready." β
She is also always silent, yes, you are not ready, when, can wait for you to be ready.
On this day, everything was calm, Jiang Shui was waiting for him at home to cook, but he inexplicably received a package from Japan. The package was a small box, heavy, and when I picked it up, it seemed like something was hitting the wall of the box.
She didn't dare to open it, and it was signed with a message that the addressee was Lu Yi.
After Xiao Yi came home from work, Zibei showed him the package, when he saw that the sending address was Hokkaido, the whole person's eyes were cloudy, his expression was red and white, as if he had some serious illness, he quickly opened the package, inside was a small wooden box, Xiao Yi opened the box, took out a letter to read, after reading it hastily, he immediately folded the letter and sealed it into the wooden box.
Zibei looked at all his movements suspiciously, but she didn't dare to ask more, and the words came to her mouth a few times, but she swallowed them back.
That night, they didn't communicate much, Xiao Yi hid the letter box somewhere, but Zibei knew that he didn't fall asleep all night, because she couldn't sleep because she remembered his abnormal reaction today, and she didn't hear his usual soft snoring.
The next day, Xiao Yi sent a letter back along the address on the package, and he wanted to face this anonymous sender, for what purpose, for what purpose?
It didn't take long for the address to send another package, this time smaller, just a thin envelope.
It's just that this time it really made Xiao Yi unable to calm down, and the package contained the international call records between him and Jiang Shui ten years ago, as well as the delivery note that Jiang Shui sent him a USB drive kept by the courier company. His hands trembled so hard that the thin note rustled and whimpered.
Xiao Yi still couldn't believe what all this was about. However, there is one thing he is finally sure of, Jiang Shui has had an accident, and when he couldn't get through on the phone, he should have expected Jiang Shui's accident, but he was still naΓ―ve at that time that Jiang Shui was unwilling to accept it because he was angry with himself, and now it seems that he is the most ridiculous and saddest person!
He sat slumped in his chair, the office was so quiet that he couldn't even hear the sound of breathing, and he was still screaming hard outside the window, but Xiao Yi felt that their voices were as far away as coming from outer space.
That memory, in an instant, stripped him from the real world.
"Please send her sincerest greetings and apologies on my behalf. This is the only thing Xiao Yi can think of.
For a long time, the anonymous person did not send anything and did not reply to any messages. But Xiao Yi's life has fallen into hell since then, his soul is no longer stable, he always has insomnia, suspicion, and began to quarrel with Zibei constantly.
Every night, when Zibei hugged him tightly and comforted him, he would feel that it was a kind of torture, and he just wanted to break free and feel sorry for her love.
However, when he thought that Zibei didn't know anything, she was just an innocent woman who loved her innocently, Xiao Yi compromised, let her continue to rely on this warmth, he pressed the waves in his chest, and let her be wrapped in his arms as always.
The days were quiet for less than a week, and one day, a window popped up on the computer, an email from a stranger.
He read it carefully, and the username is just a string of numbers: xz79031523.
"Ahh
"Who are you?" he struck so sharply for the first time.
"You know that. The other party replied quickly.
"Are you a friend of Jiang Shui, or is it a relative?"
"I'm her husband. β
It's Ishida, Xiao Yi smiled unnaturally.
"How is Jiang Shui now?"
"She's doing well, in heaven. β
His ten fingers suddenly twitched, and before he knew it, he was covered in cold sweat, and Xiao Yi struggled to type the keyboard: "How did she die, when, and what was the reason?"
"Because of you. The other party sent a sentence coldly, Xiao Yi felt that when he saw these three words, the whole world collapsed, and his mind roared like a volcanic eruption, and the heat continued to expand.
With a bang, the computer was forced to shut down.
In the office, a silent black fog hung everywhere.
He did not expect that ten years later, the demon would rediscover him to carry out unimaginable punishments against him.
