When I thought about this, my mood was inexplicably low. I thought that every marriage was the last, and who would have thought that none of them would make it to the end. Now, even if I believe that Gu Yixiao is the one who can finish my life with me, am I really sure to resist the variables that will happen in my life in the future? Gu Yixiao is seven years younger than me, what will I be like in seven years? What is he like? There are so many temptations from the outside world, can he keep his original intention from beginning to end?
I thought about it and walked away, and I fell to the back.
When he raised his leg up the steps, he looked up and saw Gu Yixiao. He stood on the last step and waited for me, and when he saw my face was gloomy, he asked a little worriedly, "What's wrong?"
"Gu Yixiao, I was thinking about how long your shelf life is good to me?" I looked up at him, ignoring the starlight in his eyes, and asked lightly.
His face tightened, and he immediately laughed: "Why did you think of this question?"
I regretted it when I said that, what am I asking for? Do you want someone to promise to love you for 10,000 years?
"Nothing, let's go inside. I digressed from the subject.
I don't want to say too much, if I chase Gu Yixiao and ask him how long he can love me, it will be too pediatric. Isn't this supposed to be something that a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl should ask when she is in love?
He stood still, not caring that there were so many people in the room, and suddenly hugged me and said, "Whether you ask this question or not, I want to confess to you." I don't know when I'm good to you, but it won't change until I die. โ
He said firmly.
However, I know that when men are in love, they are very firm in what they say.
Suddenly, I realized that I didn't believe in love anymore.
"Tao Ran, what's wrong with you today? Gu Yixiao was a little puzzled.
"I'm fine. I said and went to push the door.
"You have something written on your face, how can it be okay. He stretched out his hand to stop me and said, "Is it because you are not sure about our future?"
I looked at his anxious eyes and didn't speak.
Gu Yixiao is a man who looks very eye-catching, especially after experiencing that amnesia and sea disaster, he is a little more calm, and his temperament is closer to a mature man. This temperament, coupled with his looks, his status, his assets, these are very attractive to any woman. The more I looked at him, the more uncertain I was that we would be able to stay together for a long time.
I didn't care about age before, but now I do.
The more I thought about it, the more bitter it became.
He suddenly took my hand and walked down the steps to a corner of the room that no one could see.
"Tao Ran, you really don't have to worry. Actually, there is a way to put you at ease, as long as you want. He looked at me with a smile in his eyes.
"I don't need you to give me assurance, what I lack now is to reassure myself. Moreover, I am not the most important, I am afraid that the bean bag will be affected by this. In this life, I make choices every day, and emotionally, my choice has never been right. The more I spoke, the darker his eyes became, and at last my voice was lowered and my head lowered, not daring to look into his eyes.
"This time, you can't go wrong again. Everything is repeated, not repeatedly, and again, believe me, and believe in yourself. Actually, at that time, you chose Duan Jingchen I know why, it was to get yourself out of the shadow of my death. Your last wrong choice is because of me, and I'm responsible. He lifted my chin with his hand and whispered as the people got closer.
I saw his beautiful face in the dim light, and I was kissed by him in a trance.
This time, he was gentle to the extreme, patient to the extreme. He traced the shape of my lips little by little with his tongue, sweet and soft.
In the end, I was invaded by him.
By the time I was separated, I had no oxygen in my chest at all, took a big breath, and then looked at him. The depression in my heart, because of this kiss, turned out to be a lot better.
"When I kissed you, I knew that I definitely didn't choose the wrong person, and I didn't make the wrong decision. The past, whether it was an accident or someone deliberately did it, is in the past. I'm with you now, and that's more important than anything else. Don't think too much about what will happen in the future, you just have to watch me do it. He stared into my eyes and said this, then turned around, stood side by side with me, leaned against the wall and looked at the sky and said, "I know how Doubao feels, and I also know that although he accepts me now, he is still resistant to me marrying you, I'm not in a hurry, I can wait." Anyway, I don't want to have any more children. What I just said didn't continue. If you are not at ease, I will write the will first now, and all my property will be inherited by Doubao. I think, in this way, he can rest assured that you don't have so many worries. โ
"No, it's not about money or inheritance. "I said busily.
Gu Yixiao gently pressed my shoulder and said, "But other than that, I don't have any other actions that can make you feel more at ease." Tao Ran, really, just believe me one more time. โ
I looked at his determined eyes and was speechless.
Everything Gu Yixiao said was sincere, I could tell it.
In that case, what do I have to worry about? The idea that just came to me accidentally may be a little ghost in my heart.
We talked in the courtyard for a while, and although it wasn't a complete release, I felt a little more comfortable.
As I walked towards the house with him, I was a little annoyed, what was wrong with me?
Luo Xiaotian is really good to Doubao, so I haven't seen him for a while, and Doubao is very sticky after seeing him. When I walked in, Doubao was playing with him, laughing happily.
I'm a little at ease.
Before, I felt like I was paying a lot for the bean bag, but recently I realized that the bean bag has given a lot for me. Moreover, he loves me more than I love him.
When Doubao heard the door open and looked up to see me, he immediately called, "Mom." โ
"Mom just answered the phone, is it time for dinner?" I asked.
Aunt Wang said, "It's all ready, now I want to eat, I'll put it on the table." โ
Tian Qingqing glanced at Gu Yixiao, who came in after me, and said, "Let's finish eating after laughing and leaving." โ
Gu Yi smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Auntie." โ
At half past ten in the evening, the house was quiet, and Gu Yixiao also left. Luo Xiaotian and Tian Qingqing left me in the living room, and after seeing Aunt Wang also go to sleep, they slowly spoke: "Tao Ran, your father and I don't know what to say about marriage. Actually, in the final analysis, it's all our fault. If you grew up around us, you're a lot more emotionally independent now. However, these are not your fault either. You are right to find someone who is united by love and together for a lifetime. However, the current society is too impetuous, you have to recognize one thing first, no one is from the beginning. I don't know if it's appropriate for me to say something like that. However, I still want to say that if you have a pessimistic attitude towards marriage, you will not be able to live this life. I also know that it is difficult to rekindle the enthusiasm once and again after it has been extinguished. However, life is like this, being hit again and again, standing up again and again. Someday, you'll find that nothing can hit you anymore. โ
"Mom. I screamed softly.
From the first time we met each other as strangers, to my hatred for them, to now I can easily call out my parents to them, we have each given a lot of money and concessions. However, seeing that they are good to me, I know that it is a matter of course.
Tian Qingqing stared at my eyes seriously.
I didn't dare look at her because I was afraid that I would reveal my fear of marriage.
"Mom, I'm not worried about myself now, I'm worried about bean buns. I don't know how other people have been divorced many times to guide their children, but as far as I'm concerned, I feel powerless about it. Because I could clearly feel his resistance to my remarriage. "When I said this, I dared to look at Luo Xiaotian and Tian Qingqing.
"I can see it too. Luo Xiaotian said.
"Right now, I can't put it on either side. In fact, now, it doesn't matter to me whether I get married or not. However, Gu Yixiao has never been married, and he and I have been together for a few years, and I don't want him to have any regrets, but I can't really refuse him. "I'm in a dilemma right now.
I used to think that falling in love was the hardest, but now I know that not being able to stay together after falling in love is the hardest.
Luo Xiaotian looked at me for a long time before saying, "Maybe Gu Yixiao is the same as you think." โ
I shook my head: "He doesn't agree, he wants to get married." โ
"Then take a step back, if you don't want to, make it clear to him that if he really loves you and can understand you, instead of forcing you to marry him. Luo Xiaotian said again.
"I said it, and he said he was willing to wait. I paused, "The more he did this, the more guilty I felt." It's a really uncomfortable feeling. โ
"Tao Ran, live a selfish life, don't think so much about others. Tian Qingqing suddenly spoke.
Liu Mingyue, who had been sitting on the side and didn't speak, also said at this time: "I watched you consider all kinds of issues when talking about feelings, and I am really tired for you." Sister, can you think simpler, live simply, follow your heart, do whatever you want, and refuse if you don't want to do it. In this world, you have never been sorry for anyone, and every path is your own choice. If you think a little more about yourself, everything will be easy. โ
Her words struck me, and I could still think about things this way.
Liu Mingyue saw my eyes and knew that I had listened to her words, and said with a smile: "Gu Yixiao chose to sacrifice for you, that is his business, and it has nothing to do with you." You live every day with guilt, tired or not. For example, if you go to the same restaurant every day, and then you don't go for a while, and when you go again, their house goes out of business, will you also blame themselves for their closure?"
"Of course not. I said.
"That's right, the feelings are the same. Liu Mingyue looked at me and said in an accentuated tone, "Feelings are to live as oneself, not to live as a so-called 'self' for someone's preferences." โ
When she finished speaking, she looked at me with blazing eyes.
Luo Xiaotian was afraid that I would be embarrassed, so he smiled and said, "It's not too early, let's take a rest first." โ
I looked at my watch, and after chatting for a while, an hour passed, and I felt that there was no progress in chatting any further, so I went upstairs to rest.
In fact, what Liu Mingyue said made sense, but it couldn't solve my problem. Making people want to open something is not something that can be done in a few words.
Gu Yixiao still arranged a dinner party for the two families, and we didn't say what the theme of the dinner was, but as soon as Doubao heard that he was going to Gu Yixiao's house, he immediately resisted. The body stood straight, and the little face was stiff.
"What's the matter? It's just going to Uncle Gu's house for a meal. I said.
Doubao shook his head and said, "Mom, I know it's not just about eating, the last time you married Uncle Duan, you went to see all the people in his family." We're not a commodity, so why send it to our door for others to choose?"
His rhetoric was so fierce that I didn't expect.
I squatted down, put my arm on his shoulder, and said seriously, "Just going for a meal, not getting married or meeting his family." I wasn't with Uncle Gu for a day or two. Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu used to be very good to you, but sometimes Mom worked overtime too late, and they went to pick you up. Do you remember all of this? So, it's just an ordinary exchange, not what you think. โ
As I spoke, he looked me in the eye and told the truth from the fake.
Finally, after a minute or so, he found something in my face and said, "Okay, but let's just go to dinner." โ
I nodded.
Gu Yixiao's parents still live in the original house, and when we parked the car at the door, the gate was already open. I remember that there was an aunt in his family before, but this time it was gone, and it was Gu Yixiao's mother who opened the door.
We hadn't seen each other for a long time, and we were a little stunned when we saw each other. Gu Yixiao's mother smiled at me and said, "Tao Ran, you're here." โ
Her tone was unusually calm, as if she were talking to a friend she hadn't seen in a long time. When her eyes turned to Gu Yixiao's face, that brilliance was incomparable to others. It seems that the lost and regained is really a big surprise for my mother.
Gu Yixiao's parents and Luo Xiaotian had understood each other's situation before they met, and they were not unknown, so after they met, they could talk very well.
Although Tian Qingqing is a few years older than Gu Yixiao's mother, she may look much younger because of proper maintenance.
Gu Yixiao's father specially prepared food for the bean bun to eat, and the little guy's mood was quite stable after he came in.
This time, I could see their sincerity.
In other words, it is only after loss that people know what is most precious in their lives. Now, Gu Yixiao's parents probably won't ask him anything else.
Sure enough, when Doubao ran to the yard to play on the small swing, Gu Yixiao's mother said: "Tao Ran, it's good that you and Yixiao have talked about the previous things, it's all my problem, and I interfered too much with Yixiao's life and choices." Now, let go of my preconceptions and think about you, in fact, you are a very good woman. In the days to come, you will live by yourselves, and as for us, you will not have to worry about it. After the bean bag goes to kindergarten, if you go to the elementary school near here, we can pick it up in the morning and evening, and you don't have to run back and forth. In the past few years, I know all these things that have happened to you, and I feel sorry for you in my heart. So, if we can help you in the future, we will help you a little. โ
She spoke very truthfully, as if she really thought of her daughter.
At this party, Doubao didn't experience anything unusual, and his performance was normal, and when he finally said goodbye, Gu Yixiao's family sent us outside the gate.
Today, everyone unanimously did not mention a single word of the previous one.
Just as we were standing at the door saying goodbye, suddenly Sheng Qingjin pushed the child and walked over from afar. She probably didn't expect to meet me here, but when she saw that the elders on both sides were in formation, she immediately said half sneering and half serious: "Tao Ran, you are really good, how long have you been divorced, and you have started to talk about marriage again?" This time, you and Gu Yixiao are married, and they won't flash away again!"
When Doubao heard her words, his face changed, and he immediately retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, my mother won't." โ
Sheng Qingjin saw that my face changed, and he was even more proud, bent down and pinched the face of the bean bag and said, "Your mother doesn't know anything? Your mom is getting married, even fools can see it. โ
When I wanted to stop it, Sheng Qingjin's words were finished.
Doubao looked at me with a particularly frightened look, then turned around and ran out of the alley.
"Bean buns. I screamed and ran over to hug him and explain.
Gu Yixiao's family lives in a bungalow compound, and the alley is not wide, but after turning out, it is a two-way four-lane road, and I didn't dare to stop for a moment, and chased it directly.
However, turning the corner of the alley, I heard a sharp brake sound followed by a loud bang.
My heart sank, and by the time I reached the intersection of the road and the alley, my legs were too weak to stand up. Doubao was hit by the car and flew five or six meters, and now he is covered in blood and lying on the ground unconscious.
I almost crawled over.
Gu Yixiao didn't know when he ran in front of me, and when he saw Doubao like this, he was about to reach out and hug him.
"Don't move!" I shouted.
I rarely kept my only sanity, I remember I don't know where I heard about it, so don't move at this time, and let a professional doctor deal with it.
"When the ambulance is too late, we have to take the child to the hospital immediately. He shouted at me and picked up the bean bag from the ground.
I don't know how there is so much blood in such a small body as a bean bag, there is a pool on the ground, when Gu Yixiao picked him up, Gu Yixiao's body was also full of blood.
I don't know who drove the car, Gu Yixiao got into the car with a bean bag, and although I was soft, I hurriedly followed.
Thankfully, there was no traffic jam on the road.
Gu Yixiao's home is very close to Peking University Hospital, ten minutes away by car. We ran all the way to the emergency hall, and the doctors and nurses saw this and pushed the bed directly to pick up the bean bags.
A few minutes later, we rushed to the emergency room.
One of the nurses said, "Now let's go to the formalities alone." โ
"I'll go. Gu Yi smiled and pressed me and said, "You wait here, don't think nonsense." โ
"Hmm. I replied in a daze.
Time passed little by little, and I don't know how I carried Gu Yixiao back, nor how long time passed.
When the doctor pushed the door open and came out, I almost pounced.
It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, Doubao wouldn't have been able to endure such a big ordeal. This time and again, what are I going to do? Do I have to put my life on the bean bag before I die?
At this moment, I realized why so many women chose to get married after divorce with their children, or they were simple and just lacked fatherly love.
I didn't hear anything the doctor said, only that he was out of danger now.
The bean bag was transferred to the ICU ward, and we had to wait outside.
Gu Yixiao has been with me all the time, and he stopped talking.
At this time, Luo Xiaotian and Tian Qingqing also arrived, and all the people crowded the corridor. I swept my gaze over everyone's face, and then I let out a hard breath and said, "I'll just keep watch here, you can go." โ
Luo Xiaotian wanted to say something, but Tian Qingqing pulled him.
I didn't say anything, shut up and stood against the wall, my eyes fixed on the bean bags in the ward. If something goes wrong with the bean bag, it's not interesting for me to live.
Before Doubao woke up, I urged Gu Yixiao a few times to let him go. But he didn't leave, and then I didn't bother to speak, so I let him accompany me.
However, I directly ignored him at this time, and I only had one bean bag in my eyes.
Doubao was in a coma for a day and a night, and when he woke up, his face was pale, and he called Mom softly to make me cry.
He followed me, and for the first time, he was sinned. The first time was when he was less than 100 days old, and it was Si Jianlian's competitor who did it. Later, he was kidnapped by Gu Tianbao and injected with poison...... I thought about it one by one, and I regretted it to death.
Maybe I shouldn't know Gu Yixiao, if I didn't know him, I would just be a slightly lonely single mother.
I hugged the bean bag and said to him without any scruples: "Bean bag, don't worry, my mother will never get married again." In this life, I will accompany you, grow up with you, watch you start a family, and take over your mother's company. โ
When I said this, Gu Yixiao was standing not far behind me.
However, I said it without scruples.
Liu Mingyue is right, I should think more about myself, stop thinking about other people's feelings, it's really tiring to live like that.
Doubao smiled weakly and whispered in my ear, "Thank you Mom, I'm just afraid that Mom will hurt me again." Dad had a baby with someone else, and he doesn't want me anymore. I'm afraid that my mother also has a child with someone else, and she doesn't want me. When the time comes, I will be a child without a father or a mother. I don't want that. โ
After he said these obvious physical exhaustions, I hurriedly said, "Don't worry, it won't." Mom will always have only one child. โ
Doubao nodded, then closed his eyes slightly, and fell asleep after a few minutes.
Gu Yi looked at me for a while, and said softly, "Can you go out and talk?"
I glanced at the bean bag and followed him outside, and before he could speak, I said, "I'm sorry, between you and the child, I can only choose the child." โ
"Tao Ran, I respect all your choices, but what I'm going to say is not about this matter. Gu Yi smiled and said seriously, "I don't know if I should tell you now." โ
"What the hell is going on?" I asked.
"The doctor whispered to me that the most fatal thing about doubao was not the internal and external injuries caused by the car accident, but other diseases. He said.
My face turned white all at once, and my heart was filled with boundless fear.
