Chapter 58 He said: Happy New Year
Her voice fell, and Xue Yihuai stood motionless. The backs are so stiff, and the faces hidden in the dark are even tighter to the limit.
He was silent for a long time, and Rong Yunxi stood on the windowsill and stared at him without blinking. The two confronted each other, as if half a century had passed, and Xue Yihuai finally took a long breath: "It's a pity, can the car accident be related to you?"
He finally asked, although on the surface of the case, this matter had nothing to do with her, but a seed of doubt was planted in his heart by Jin Nan. Just now, when she asked about the events of the year, this seed was like it had finally germinated in the rain and dew.
He didn't look up at her, but her body shook slightly. After a while, she chuckled softly and said, "Don't you think it's ridiculous for you to ask me such a question?"
Does it sound ridiculous, if he hadn't learned about her kidnapping from Jin Nan, I'm afraid he wouldn't have suspected her now.
He may have asked her this question a long time ago, but he was selfishly afraid that she would show her flaws, and even more afraid that if it wasn't true, it would be his own hands that pushed her into the deep abyss. Either way, he couldn't bear it. But tonight, just now, it was up to her to break the barrier.
"Uncle Rong told me that you were kidnapped because you waited for me at the airport until late at night, I believe this. He said that you witnessed cruel and bloody images during your days in captivity, which led to your current psychological disorder, and I believe it. He also said that you were being pushed onto the operating table when the police were destroying the den...... I believed it too. ”
He paused, then finally turned around and looked up at her, "But I want to hear you say now, is this all true?"
Behind the wall that Xue Yihuai couldn't see, Rong Yunxi's hands were clenched into fists and trembled slightly. And on her face, there was also a sarcastic smile: "If I say it's true, will you believe me? We all know each other too well. If you hadn't been suspicious, you wouldn't have asked. ”
The two of them stared at each other until a cold sensation came from his raised forehead.
It's snowing.
She reached out to catch the snowflakes, and the temperature that fell into her palm was as cold as the temperature of her heart now. She used to like snow days the most, because Xue Yihuai would always build a snowman downstairs and give it to her before she woke up in the morning.
He retracted his gaze and turned to leave, Rong Yunxi suddenly said: "Even if everything in front of you is fake, we were all real in the past." ”
——
In the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Xue Yihuai came to pick up He Niannian and discharged him from the hospital early in the morning. Before being discharged from the hospital, the doctor repeatedly told him that he must return to the hospital tomorrow.
was finally able to get out of the hospital, and He Niannian had already experienced the feeling of being in prison. She suddenly thought of something: "Is your uncle also in Malone? I haven't heard you mention it since the last time it looked like a scam call, is he okay?"
Xue Yihuai chuckled and rubbed her hair: "Mrs. Xue is still really worried. Uncle he went abroad and will not come back for the New Year this year. ”
He Niannian sighed, this Xue family has been full of mystery from beginning to end. At the gate of the hospital, Xue Yihuai went to pick up the car, and He Niannian sat alone in a wheelchair in a daze.
"What are you looking at so fascinating?" Yan Fei was still holding a bouquet of purple stars, took off his suit and changed into a windbreaker, which was really quite different.
"Thank you, I'm curious, why do you give me purple stars every time?" she asked him with a smile as she took the flower.
Yan Fei shrugged his shoulders and mumbled as if he was thinking: "Because...... I see that your phone screensaver is it. Don't you like a sky full of stars?"
He Niannian hurriedly shook his head: "I like the stars the most." Is it no wonder that people who are bosses are so observant? It's no wonder that I can't be a boss anymore, and I have zero insight. By the way, how do you know I'm going to be discharged from the hospital today?" she had just finished asking, and she felt a little silly about her question.
"How did I forget Ning Rushan's big mouth! I'm thirty years old this year, ...... you Don't you want to go home for the New Year?"
"I'm in Cangning for the New Year. He moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, Xue Yihuai's car had already driven over. He smiled and waved at her, "I'll go first, then...... Happy New Year!"
He Niannian nodded: "Happy New Year!"
He turned to leave, the winter wind blowing his trench coat, and for some reason she always felt a little lonely.
Xue Yihuai stood behind her and coughed lightly: "Mrs. Xue, your eyes are almost sticky to other people's bodies." Your husband is behind you, can you restrain a little?
The word coquettish has always been insulated from Xue Yihuai, but recently, how does she feel that he is using it more and more like a fish in water?
"Mr. Xue, you are really a noble person. Not long ago, I have officially informed you that Miss Ben is going to flirt, and you must prepare my remarriage fee sooner, and wait for me to inform you at any time!" she raised her chin, her long hair blowing a little messy in the wind.
Xue Yihuai walked over, and his slender fingers ran through her long hair to help her straighten out: "Mrs. Xue is also a noble person who forgets things, and I also informed you that anyone can except Yan Fei." The fine hair on his sideburns fell again, and he hooked it behind her ear, and kissed her on the cheek with a ghostly look.
He Niannian seemed to be frightened, his eyes widened, and his heart beat wildly. The cheeks that felt cold and swishing in the cold wind just now are now slightly hot.
He Niannian, He Niannian, can't you fight for some anger? That's it, what kind of divorce are you talking about with him!
Xue Yihuai was also a little annoyed by his own uncontrollability, so he didn't laugh at her, and directly picked her up and got into the car.
"Mom and Dad, Jin Nan, and Tongtong have already gone back first, we have to hurry up and don't let them wait too long. He Niannian nodded absent-mindedly and turned his face sideways to not look at him.
After the car got off the highway, the sound of firecrackers continued one after another, and every house lit up red lanterns, even though it was not completely dark yet.
There was a lively scene everywhere, and an ancestral hall suddenly flashed outside the car window. She looked back and saw that the offering table of the big red tablecloth was filled with all kinds of offerings, and in the center was a whole roast suckling pig.
He Niannian suddenly thought of something, turned his face and asked Xue Yihuai eagerly: "Do you have to let your daughter-in-law make a sacrifice during the New Year......?"
A little face was full of fear, and Xue Yihuai chuckled: "Aren't you all experienced, what are you afraid of?"
He Niannian held his forehead, looking loveless: "Ah...... It's going to be crossed again!"
Xue Yihuai laughed: "You look like this, if you still let you do that, wouldn't it seem that we are too inhuman?"
He Niannian pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "The old customs of all evil ......"
Xue Yihuai took out a hand and rubbed her hair: "Don't worry, you'll just stay for one night." One night, you just want to pay tribute to the ancestors of the Xue family, I'm afraid I don't have that time for you. ”
He Niannian shook off his hand: "Drive your car well!" The next second, she turned her face to the car window and patted her chest, with a look of happiness.
When I arrived at the Xue family's old house, it was just getting dark. The whole family was waiting at the door, and He Niannian suddenly had the urge to cry.
Old Man Xue stood at the front and looked at her with a smile. She screamed a little choked, and the old man came over and stuffed a red envelope into her hand: "Girl, you can't cry in the Chinese New Year's Eve! Grandpa gives you a red envelope, be happy!"
He Niannian was amused by the old man, and as soon as he entered the door, he already smelled the fragrant Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The courtyard is filled with blooming daffodils and orchids, and the fragrance fills the courtyard.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the juniors lined up to greet the old man. Because she pities her, everyone else has a red envelope per person, and she is the only one. The old man didn't know how much to give, so Mo Wantong and they called the old man eccentric.
Before it was twelve o'clock, it suddenly snowed heavily, and the old man smiled and said: "Ruixue Zhaofeng year, good omen! But my old man can't stand it, you juniors are responsible for keeping the year, and I will go back." ”
Xue Yihuai helped the old man back to the room, and Mo Wantong pushed He Niannian to watch the snow under the eaves for a while. Outside the gate, a group of children were setting off fireworks, and the children of her relatives who she couldn't remember were shouting at her, "Cousin, do you want to set off fireworks?"
She smiled and shook her head, but the kid ran in and shoved the small fireworks into her hands.
The small fireworks were buzzing, and she smiled, and the bright firelight reflected in her eyes, like a picture that she had memorized. She was afraid that the fire would splash on her body, so she stretched her arms a little farther away. Not far away, Xue Yihuai was leaning on the weeping flower door and smiled at her. And this smiling face is better shrouded in her fireworks......
He moved his lips, she couldn't hear but could see, and he said, "Happy New Year!"
