Chapter 5 - Bemonnet's Past

―Perspective Switching―

When I saw the gritted teeth of the legendary cruel and ruthless executioner next door, I knew that he was as demonic and cold-blooded as he was rumored, on the contrary, he was more like a young man, completely devoid of the wisdom of a man over thirty, which is not a pejorative, but a quality that I like very much, and is really an interesting person.

As for why I suddenly entered his shop, it started with the days when I was closed.

On that day, as usual, when I was in a daze with nothing to do after seeing off a group of guests, a messenger came in and handed me a letter from the middle of the city.

Looking at the messenger's back in the distance, I pondered that there was only one person I knew in the middle of the city, a letter from my damned old woman, and the question was this, why would we suddenly contact me again after we had been cut off for many years.

Is this ...... What a conspiracy and a trap!

I couldn't help but pull the letter far away, for fear that something vicious like a poisonous snake and a scorpion would come out of it.

It's not that I'm worried about her and think of her too harshly, it's just that the choices their family made to me when I was young had to make me sigh.

Let's just look at what's going on, they're all half of the people who have stepped into the ground, what are they afraid of?

Thinking so, I opened the somewhat childish pink envelope, and her taste was still so bad.

"Dear Bemonay.

Long time no see...... I have a lot to say, but every time the tip of the pen falls, I don't know if it's your reason or mine, I still haven't written it down after all, and it crumples into a ball of waste paper. But today...... It's our golden wedding anniversary, and even though we've been disconnected for decades, I still kind of want you to come to me, I want to see your ugly and obscene face again, I want to hear your boring and stubborn words again, I want to see your stupidity that no one can compare with again. You may still be clinging to what you call romance, and you may still be opening the Pure Land that makes others resentful and resentful.

To put it simply, I want to say ......

With you Bemonay, without me Lena, let's have a final judgment.

Let's see if it's your victory, or my destiny.

Give up your store as soon as possible, what a utopia, people who can't even retire are still talking big things, don't make people laugh to death.

Your favorite wife, Lena. 」

"Squeak......" I gritted my teeth and tore the envelope to shreds.

That bastard old woman, I know you're mad at me, okay, the final battle is right, I'm going to convince you of the loss.

So I threw the door out and headed for the main store in the middle of the new town.

Walking on the road in anger, I soon realized that this was the old woman's conspiracy, which made me lose in anger, thus greatly increasing the chance of mistakes, what a terrible woman's heart.

In order to adjust my mentality, I tried to recall what to divert my attention.

Speaking of the store "Zhiyang", it is now the largest original clothing chain in the whole empire, has it been so long, it was only a top-notch store in the old city at the beginning, far from the standard of the empire's popularity, in the end, it is not my credit, if it wasn't for the original ......

No, it's in the wrong direction, doesn't it make me more annoyed.

Let's go back a little further.

......

Lion Ridge Residence, Lion Heart Avenue.

The most prosperous streets, a dazzling array of shops, all kinds of propaganda means, eye-catching performers and gorgeous postures, elegant ladies gather in twos and threes, orderly patrols run around, and countless smiling men, women and children gather here as if the world is here.

I thought that the people walking in the distance were gone, and the people here would gradually cool down, but I didn't expect that people would continue to come endlessly. Thinking that there would be so many people who would choose to leave, I didn't expect that in a remote corner covered with black leaves of all sizes of trees, there were many people entering the store next to it, going in and out, and then going to the opposite store, and so on, similar things happened in a cycle.

This is the reason why the Duke wants His Majesty to reward him with land, and it is also where his confidence lies.

An inconspicuous place.

Next to the main entrance of Zhizhiyang, two young people who were close to each other were whispering and discussing at the door.

"Lena, will your father really forgive me. The ugly man looked at his beautiful wife with great concern.

"Don't worry, Bemonay, I've already agreed with my father, besides, how many years have we been married, what can he do to you, you are his future heir, don't worry!" Lena held Bemonay's hand, tightly, wanting him to put his mind at ease, but even if her husband is talented, it seems that the inferiority caused by his appearance cannot be eliminated so easily.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Bemonay nodded, he knew that his wife had done a lot for him, and that the mere fact that he didn't judge people by his appearance had already moved his stubborn heart.

"Well, let's go inside. Seeing that Bemonay had finally calmed down, Lena happily pulled him in.

......

"We're back, father, and I miss you so much. Lena came to the backyard hall, looked at her father with a stiff face, and pounced coquettishly.

The middle-aged man's tense face softened slightly, and after hugging his long-lost daughter, he looked up and saw the ugly and stubborn guy who changed his face again.

"Bemonay, say hello. Lena saw her husband, who was still standing aside, unconscious, and hurriedly retreated to his side and whispered.

"Oh, oh, Hello, father, long time no see. Bemonay then remembered that he was still the son-in-law of this person, and suddenly opened his mouth to greet.

"I'm not good. The man replied lightly, his tone stiff and indifferent.

Bemonay didn't speak again, and stood silent.

"Father, Bemonai has figured it out, so we're back, you can forgive Bemonai, he knows it's him wrong. ”

Seeing the increasingly out of control scene, Lena hurriedly opened the theme this time to try to save it, and then kept signaling Bemonai, who was frowning halfway, with her eyes, to calm down and leave it all to herself.

When the man heard Lena's words, his face softened a little, and he turned his head to look at Bemonai, who did not refute, and nodded.

"Is this so, it's good to know that you're wrong, I'm not a ruthless person, after all, Lena has been married to you for so many years, and seeing Lena on your face, the previous things have been written off. ”

Saying that, the man asked seriously towards Bei Monnet.

"So, Bemonay, would you like to put the mark of grandeur on your work? ”

"What?!" Lena's face changed drastically, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked. "Father, you haven't told me about this before. ”

"Needless to say, when Bemonay joins the Banner, his work naturally has to be stamped with the Banner, and the customer will not believe to buy a stranger's work for the first time for no reason. The man looked at Lena, whose face had changed drastically, and said with a frown.

"However, wouldn't it be nice to sell it in Zhizhiyang? Lena tried to save her husband's haughty heart, or else......

"Zhiyang suddenly appeared a product that was not designed by his own family, not to mention whether it was popular or not, what would the guests think when they saw it, this is related to the reputation and face of Zhiyang for nearly a hundred years, do you want to let Zhiyang be ruined in the hands of your father? Although the man said to his daughter, his eyes kept pressing Bemonai, whose face was depressed.

"Even so, that's ......"

"That's enough, Leibu Eagle, it was hard for me to accept it when I joined Zhiyang, and now you actually want to occupy my heart, don't be delusional!" Bemonay finally broke out, Lena's face suddenly turned pale, and she knew that what happened next was irreparable.

"It's your luck to be able to join the Banner Flyer, if it weren't for Lena, how could I possibly let someone as naïve as you join the Banner Flyer. ”

"Innocent? In my opinion, what you are doing is extremely naïve, and it is blasphemous !! disrespectful to let the works that have been designed with countless days and nights be produced on the assembly line and sold on a large scale!"

"Ridiculous! Clothes are designed not to be worn by customers, do you spend months carefully making them in the store, just for people to watch? What do I take to support my family, what do I give to my clerks to make them smile and subsidize the family, you are indescribable. ”

"It's hard to say that the road is different! Bemonay's face was full of disdain, and he pulled Lena, who was standing aside, to leave.

"You go, Lena stays, since you are not from our family, don't have any more dealings with Lena. ”

"Father?!" Lena looked at her father in disbelief.

"Haha, can't my own wife go with me?" Bemonai laughed angrily, and turned to his wife seriously. "Lena, would you like to come with me, do you believe I can break into a new world on my own? ”

"Of course, of course I believe ......"

Lena opened her mouth and was about to answer, when the man next to her suddenly interrupted, as if to remind of something.

"Lena. ”

"I'm ......," Lena hesitated.

"Lena, don't you want to. Bemonay's tone was low, and his face seemed to be pleading.

"Lena, what are you still hesitating about, are you giving yourself to such an irresponsible person like this?!......"

"Father's ......"

The man wanted to say something, but stopped when he saw that Lena was so sad that she was about to be unable to stand and weak.

"Father, please let me and Bemonai be alone for a while, please......"

The man looked at Lena's red and tearful eyes, stood up silently and walked out.

"Bemonay...... Forgive me, I didn't tell you before, I agreed with my father to join the banner on your behalf, I'm sorry...... I'm really sorry, I didn't know this was going to happen, I'm really sorry...... I know how different you are, how arrogant you are...... I'm really sorry...... Sorry ......"

"Lena ......"

"But I can't leave with you like this......"

"Why, Lena, don't you believe me, or ......?"

"No, I believe you, but I can't leave, some things can't be easily discarded, so I'm sorry...... Let's cut ties and never talk again, Bemonay. ”

Lena said those words with tears in her eyes and a smile, but even then she was so beautiful.

Bemonnet's expression suddenly turned pale like a crumpled ball of white paper.

The woman who once loved deeply, but abandoned herself with deep karma, now looks so tiresome and terrible, and wants to stay away from it.

Bemonay didn't know how he had left Zhiyang, how he hadn't struggled, and why he hadn't changed his mind for Lena.

The sky had turned a deep orange, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the streets, faintly but unusually dazzling, as if mocking himself.

The surroundings became darker, gradually darkened, sinking, and endless, as if returning to the days before she met Lena.

A person is like a fish in the deepest part of the sea, a person, without light, without support, with nothing but himself. I can only rely on my instinct, swimming and swimming in the completely black water, looking for no purpose, no goal, trying to find something to fill the empty hole in my body.

Is it the self, or something, something else, something lost, something that is lost, something that is lost, something that is incomparably precious.
