Chapter 62: The Secret of Each One Continued (I)
Although it is only 80 square meters, the old house has a high ceiling and a wide structure, so if you live alone, it will feel quite empty, especially in the dead of night, the subtle sound is also easy to cause the effect of nervousness, at least Shang Yiming thinks so.
Tonight is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and he is the only one left in this small courtyard in the courtyard, and the old two next door went to the International Trade Center yesterday to accompany their daughter and son-in-law. As soon as it was dark, he closed the curtains, locked the doors and windows, and enjoyed the solitude that belonged entirely to him. Although he doesn't often go to Fengtai to visit his parents who are in good health, he always gathers with them during the Spring Festival in previous years. However, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is unlikely to be like that in any way. "I traveled with a few college classmates and came back after the Lantern Festival. The lie he told to his mother on the phone two days ago was very clumsy in his own eyes -- he had left Beijing three times in the past 20 years, and everyone who knew him knew that he was only reading and watching football and surfing the Internet behind closed doors, and only when his eyes were tired did he come out and walk a long circle along the familiar route. Where would such a snail-like person suddenly come to travel for the New Year?
Mom misunderstood, Shang Yiming didn't mind his father sarcastically mocking him as a "yellow magazine editor" for not seeking progress, but was afraid that they would see the scars on his face that had not faded. Parents must ask the source of the scars, and if he talks nonsense in front of them, he will inevitably be unable to suppress his nervousness, and when they ask about the flaws, he will be cut open if he does not keep the secrets of his participation in the foul team. Such a fact will make their anxiety and worry about him tenfold, after all, as parents, they can tolerate their son's lack of interest, but they will never want him to put him in danger.
"I'm at the hotel, everything is fine. I wish you and Dad a Happy Spring Festival!" After sending this text message, Shang Yiming lay on the bed, like a baby lying in the cradle. He turned on the lamp and grabbed a few printed paper drafts on the bedside table, which Li Wei brought with him when he came to pay New Year's greetings in the afternoon. "Jane Eyre's Spring Festival gift, one for everyone, I advise you to destroy it after you have seen enough. "It's full of excerpts from foreign news pages, with handwritten translations of Jane Eyre at the bottom of the screenshots. Is the protagonist of every piece of news Neo? "The CEO of XX Global Group had to suspend the projects supported by his charitable fund due to the company's funding gap", "XX movie star announced that he will not be a love ambassador due to health reasons, and the love organization he founded may be managed by others"...... Shang Yiming watched it with relish: "It's a pity that 14 people didn't get together, but this is only on the news." ”
The single room rented by Shang Yiming's friend Li Weixin is particularly lively at the moment. Li Wei discussed with his parents in advance: "I didn't buy a return ticket, I rented a room for you again, and you can stay in Beijing for the New Year together." "This is in the hands of the second elder. After getting off the train, they learned that their son's new girlfriend accidentally rode a three-wheeled crooked into a ditch and broke her leg while working part-time to earn money. The kind-hearted second elder felt sorry for the hard-working girl and scolded Li Wei in front of her. After that, they rushed from the two-bedroom apartment lent to Zhuo Wu by Yugong every day to take care of the white snake and take care of all the housework. Today, Li Wei got off work early, and they set up a small dining table in a small single room and put a table full of fragrant meals. Li Wei helped the white snake to take a seat, and the four of them were staggered, talking and laughing. During the chat, Li Wei's mother said to the white snake: "Xiao Cheng, why didn't you call your parents to come to Beijing for the festival together?"
On the day when the plan to separate the fake email was decided, Xing Tian called Zhuo Wu after the meeting, and the two stayed for a secret conversation. "Your parents are coming soon?" Xing Tian asked. "Yes, the train ticket is bought. "Alright, White Snake has to get ready to go undercover with you. The doctor tried to persuade her to spend the Spring Festival in the hospital, which helped stabilize her injury, but she insisted on being discharged early to help you. Seriously, I've never seen her so active in this before. "What way?" "I need to confess to you today, the White Snake has been making trouble. Xing Tian pointed to his head as he spoke, "Spiritual." I took her to the doctor, but it wasn't conclusive yet. According to herself, it seems that at some point, somehow, some kind of ...... in the past Unpleasant memories popped up in my head all at once. "It's like walking through the garden and a masked man with a knife jumps in front of you out of nowhere?" "Well, about the same...... Yo, your writing is very good, no worse than Dante! That kind of memory makes her feel very uncomfortable, and she can't control it, I think you've seen it. Zhuo Wu nodded. Xing Tian said solemnly: "I want to remind you that her memories are most likely to be used by some sensitive scenes or ...... Words hooked up. So this time she volunteered to go to your house to help, for her good, you pay attention to what you say and do. At least keep the house tidy and clean, and don't keep insisting that you're your 'boyfriend', let alone her 'parents'!" "Parents......" Takugo seemed to have something to offer, "Boyfriend...... Boyfriend?" "Yes, boyfriend. Xing Tian thought he was confused by this evasion, and was determined to explain, "To tell you the truth, the first boyfriend she knew was the one who led her into the fire pit. ”
Li Wei remembered Xingtian's advice, and he told his parents on the phone early that his new girlfriend's family was rural, and his parents were both croppers, in case they talked too much with the white snake. Unexpectedly, my mother still asked tonight. He didn't know what to do, but when he saw the white snake gently brushing his sideburns, he lowered his head and said, "My grandmother is not in good health, they stay by his side to take care of it." "Oh. Mother Li was about to ask, but when she saw her son glaring at her desperately, she stopped.
An hour later, all four of them were full of food and drink. The second elder said that he would take advantage of the Spring Festival Gala to go out for a walk, leaving his son and White Snake alone in the house. "You take this. White Snake took out a bulging red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Zhuo Wu, "This is given to me by your parents, I ...... We are colleagues, and I can't take it. Zhuo Wu didn't answer, and said, "You can take it." I...... Thank you so much. You should have stayed in the hospital for a few more days, in order to help me cope with my parents' ......" Okay. White Snake put the red envelope on the dining table and pushed it to him, "Just if you owe me a favor, you will have the opportunity to pay me back in the future." "Thank you, thank you for your watch...... Manifestation. Hearing this, the white snake rubbed his face with his forked hands and said in a low voice, "No thanks." ”
