Chapters XV and XVI

CHAPTER XV

A year later, the famous Fuxing Restaurant is still full of people, with many guests, and it is full, which makes Yu Xiaoli in the bar very busy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Since the beginning of this year, Xiaoli's work and living conditions have not changed much, and she still does the errands of reception and cashier at the bar, but her partner has changed, and her original partner Ding Meiyun resigned from her job in the restaurant after getting married, and went to work with her newlywed husband in the company where she worked, and here it was replaced by Han Hongyu, which is the aforementioned Xiaohong. In addition, Xiaoli has a small change, that is, the living conditions have changed, under the proposal of Aunt Wu Cuicui, Hong Fusheng, the father and boss, rented a small house for his daughter in the community where she originally lived, Le Xiaoli was ecstatic, and thanked her father and aunt vigorously. In this way, she has become an unrestrained and lonely happy person, but the marriage and love problem has always been unresolved, which has become a heart problem for her and Hong Fusheng and his wife. During this period, Wu Cuicui also helped Xiaoli find one or two people, but either she didn't think it was good, or Xiaoli felt unhappy, so this matter could only be temporarily observed and considered. It may be a coincidence, this day is Saturday, dinner time, Hong Fusheng in a private room on the third floor of the banquet six old customers, these are all private owners, business is very prosperous, they will be all the year round to entertain and eat business in the Fuxing Restaurant, so in order to thank them and enhance friendship, Hong Fusheng will set up a banquet for a period of time, today these people will go to the private room of the restaurant in the afternoon to play mahjong entertainment, dinner, wine and food on the table, they stopped, and sit at the round table to eat, drink and chat together.

Among these six people, there is a forty-two or thirteen-year-old Yao Qiming, who is in the computer business, Boss Yao, this person is white and handsome, with a black and shiny twenty-eight head combed neatly, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of the nose. After graduating from university, he worked in a public computer company, doing design and innovation work, because he studied computer majors, so the work was very handy, worked less than five years, before the age of 30, he smashed the iron rice bowl, went to the sea to do business, and opened a computer sales company by himself, because he was well managed, and he was familiar with the industry, so he had tens of millions of assets before he was 40 years old, bought a high-end car and a villa, and lived a broad life. Today he sat next to Hong Fusheng, because the two of them had been in contact many times, and their feelings for each other had reached the point of saying nothing. He called Hong Fusheng Brother Hong, and whenever he came to eat, he would find one or two questions to ask Hong Fusheng for advice. When they talked about their respective families, Hong Fusheng proudly boasted that he had a very warm wife and a smart and sensible son, but Boss Yao just sighed sadly, and Hong Fusheng asked unreasonably: "What's the matter, isn't your family happy?" Are you so rich, will you still lack a love life? ”

"Alas......, where can we talk about happiness, I can't see each other a few times a year, even if we meet, we can't talk together, she has a withdrawn personality, a strange temper, she doesn't seem to be interested in anything, she pretends to be a son or a son in her heart, she lives in her mother's house all the year round, and there is only one thing to do all day long, which is to take care of her son's diet and daily life.

"That's not bad, you don't have any worries, you can take care of your business ********, make more money, and let their mother and son live a worry-free life, isn't it a beautiful thing?"

"People are emotional animals, only material enjoyment, no spiritual life, what's the point of earning more money."

"Where is her maiden home? How old is your son? ”

"Not far from my hometown, in a county-level city in a neighboring county, my son is seventeen this year and is in high school."

"Then you haven't considered taking them to the provincial capital, the living environment and education level here must be better than your hometown."

"Don't mention thinking about it, I don't get angry when I think about it, I have told her no less than dozens of times, let her bring her son here to live with me, but she seems to be a baby who can never leave her mother, she just refuses to agree, I live alone in such a big house, my home is not like a home, the hotel is not like a hotel, every day I have a cold pot and a cold stove, like an orphan."

"Then don't her parents talk about her? The daughter who got married always lives in her mother's house. ”

"Her parents also urged her to come with us, but she just insisted on going her own way, so that her parents had no choice but to rely on her temperament, and her son was infected by her and refused to come over at her grandparents' house like her."

"Then it's not a way for you to live apart for a long time, after a long time, the relationship will be worn out, and there will be no more common language when you are together."

"Who says it's not, the key issue, we don't have any feelings for ourselves, she and my interests and hobbies, cultural level are not on the same level at all, I say east, she will think of west, I say dog, she wants to go to chickens, no problems can be involved."

"Didn't you notice these problems when you talked to someone?"

"It's one thing to be in love, it's another thing to get married, when you're in love, both parties talk about the advantages, and it's basically difficult to expose all the faults, but after getting married, there is no secret to protect, and the shortcomings will leak out little by little."

"That makes sense."

"Brother Hong, don't mention her, my appetite is almost gone, let's drink, drink." Yao Qiming obviously didn't want to talk about this anymore, he raised his wine glass to toast Hong Fusheng, and after the two touched glasses and took a sip, Hong Fusheng chatted with other guests about some topics that were not salty or light. After three rounds of drinking, Yao Qiming seemed to be a little drunk, and he said to Hong Fusheng: "Brother Hong, I envy you, you have a career, you have a good wife, you are indeed a blessed person, no wonder there is a blessing in your name." ”

"Thank you for the compliment, in fact, husband and wife should communicate more, communicate frequently, talk about things and exchange opinions, don't you talk to her seriously and seriously, it's not a matter for you to go on like this, either live together, or go your separate ways."

"How can I not talk about it, I have a dry mouth when I talk about it, but to no avail, I had to file for divorce from her three years ago, but she didn't say she agreed, nor did she say she didn't agree, every time she used no time to prevaricate me, so I didn't have to be so nominal, and I had no family to live like a home."

"I really didn't expect that a big boss like you would have a lot of unpleasant things, so didn't you think about finding another one?"

"No one is perfect, so it can be smooth everywhere, she hasn't left there, how can I find it."

"Find a lover, or a mistress, it's easy for you."

Yao Qiming heard Hong Fusheng say this, his face was slightly displeased, he frowned slightly and said: "I am still relatively traditional and conservative in this regard, there are many women, I can find it easily, but I don't like to mess around, what kind of one-night stand, I am not interested in things like flowers and grass, even if I want to find it, I also want to find a woman with a similar personality and interests and hobbies similar to mine." But single women of my age are basically divorced, and these divorced women have such and such problems, and most of them have children, so I don't want these women, first, their problems are often intolerable; The second is that I don't want to be a stepfather to a child who is not related by blood, and it is difficult to get along with it, and it may even hurt the feelings of adults because of the child, and I don't want to cause that trouble. So find a young and beautiful woman, but young and beautiful women all want to have children, doesn't it mean that a woman who has never given birth to a child is not a complete woman, and I am not happy about this, because I already have a son, and I only want to leave all my money and property in the future to my son, so why make another one to fight with him. Therefore, it is more troublesome, it is only a matter of time before I divorce her, but after leaving, I will go there to find a young, beautiful, educated, cultivated, and willing not to have children. ”

"The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional" Yao Qiming's words made Hong Fusheng amazed, on the one hand, he admired that this Boss Yao was an upright man, so rich, and so conformist; On the other hand, he felt that the beauty was not exactly the woman he wanted, except for the big age difference, he could say that he could not lose to the beauty in any aspect, if he could promote these two people together, wouldn't it be a perfect thing. Thinking of this, he wanted to open his mouth to tell Boss Yao that there was an ideal object in front of him, but suddenly he felt that he should ask for Jiali's opinion first, and if Jiali agreed, it would not be too late to talk about it. Therefore, he wanted to stop talking, but just pandered to Boss Yao and said: "Your idea is very realistic, and it is not unreasonable, there are indeed not many such women, but they may not be found." ”

"Look at fate, I don't care about this god now, let's take one step at a time, after all, I haven't divorced yet."

After a few people happily feasted on a full meal in the private room, they continued to play cards and entertainment, and Hong Fusheng greeted them warmly and politely and exited the private room.

Early the next morning, as soon as Xiaoli arrived at the restaurant, Hong Fusheng stopped her, and the two sat on the empty seats on the edge of the living room, and couldn't wait to tell Xiaoli what they learned about Boss Yao last night, and boasted that in addition to the age difference, Boss Yao is suitable for her in all aspects. After finishing speaking, I asked Xiao Liyi how she was. Xiaoli pondered for a long time, stared at her father with an expression of excitement and sourness, and said: "Okay, since Dad thinks this person is suitable for me, then look everywhere first, as long as it is everywhere, if he has no opinion on me, once he is divorced, I will marry him." ”

"That's great, this is a beautiful thing to laugh at, since you have no opinion, then find a chance to explain to him, he often comes to the restaurant to eat, you should have seen it."

"I've seen Boss Yao, he's been here many times, but I've never thought about it, so I'm not impressed."

"He is doing very well in business, he has more economic strength, his character is also very good, he is well-behaved, he is so rich, he never messes with flowers and grass, and does nonsense."

"What I care about is character, whether money is money or not, no matter how much money he has, it is his, I only ask him to be able to support me, I have everything."

"That's right, that's why I said that you and him are suitable, and that's why, if you break the age barrier and become a couple, it will be a beautiful marriage."

"Age is not a problem, the two are humble to each other, love each other, even if there is a big difference, they will live together very happily, Dad, you can do it, I am waiting for good news."

Xiaoli's statement made Hong Fusheng very satisfied, although he still felt a little bad in his heart, after all, Xiaoli was his own daughter, as a father introduced his daughter to a man who was twenty years older than him, he naturally felt not so comfortable, but what to do, his daughter's own weakness, and he couldn't help but do this, seeing that she was getting older day by day, personal problems could not be solved, how could Hong Fusheng bear it. Thinking about it this way, trying to make this happen is the best way out of the middle of the list.

Just when Hong Fusheng and Yu Xiaoli were shaving their heads and picking their heads, Yao Qiming didn't come to the restaurant for half a year, Hong Fusheng couldn't help but call twice, and the answer was that they were too busy, and there was no banquet and dinner arrangement, the father and daughter couldn't help but feel a little lost, and even thought that he might have some situation, was he and his wife reconciled and moved to live together? Or is there a big trouble in business? While they were making all kinds of speculations, at noon on March 28, 2002, under the drizzly weather, Yao Qiming suddenly appeared in front of the bar and said to Xiaoli, who was greeting other guests: "Miss Yu, please arrange a private room for me." ”

"Ah, Yao, Yao, Boss Yao, you're here." Xiaoli said nervously and incoherently.

"What's the matter, I can't speak, it's not the first time I've been here, as for being so nervous."

"No, no, I didn't notice you coming, I was distracted for a while, okay, I'll arrange it for you right away." Xiaoli calmed down and used the internal phone to inform Boss Yao to leave a private room on the third floor. After they went upstairs, Xiaoli used the same method to inform her father Hong Fusheng.

When Hong Fusheng heard that Boss Yao was finally here again, he went down to the fifth floor with joy, and when he arrived at the Phoenix Hall on the third floor, he greeted Boss Yao and said with a smile: "Ah, Boss Yao, why haven't you been here for more than half a year, and it was the gust of wind that blew you here today?" ”

"Oh, Boss Hong, I haven't tasted your delicious food here for a few days, I really want to, so I asked a few friends to come, what, aren't you welcome?"

"Where, where, I am longing for you to come." Hong Fusheng bowed his hand to Boss Yao and the two men and two women who came with him, and then continued with great enthusiasm and boldness: "Several big men have come, the small shop is full of splendor, I should do my best to be a landlord, and I have a treat today. ”

"This doesn't make sense, I brought the person, how can I let you break the bank, these two are my college classmates, these two ladies are their wives, we rarely get together, and we can't let you steal the first credit by saying anything." Boss Yao said with a smile.

"Hehe, then I'm better to be respectful, you please, I'll go and greet the other guests first, don't bother for the time being, I hope you have a good time here." Hong Fusheng finished speaking and exited the private room.

About forty minutes later, Hong Fusheng pushed open the door of the Phoenix Hall again, Boss Yao and those friends happily invited him to sit down and have a few drinks, and under the hospitality, he sat next to Boss Yao, toasted each other, and after a greeting, Hong Fusheng asked Yao Qiming: "Boss Yao, why haven't you come for so long?" ”

"Hey, business is busy, I ran a few times up and down the north, and I also took the time to go back to my hometown to see my son once."

"Oh, then reconcile with your wife, right?"

"Hmph, it's okay, I officially filed for divorce from her again in the name of my son."

"Did she say yes?"

"I agreed, but I didn't want to go through the formalities with me right away, saying that I was busy, and I would come back to do it when I had time, that was a pretext, there was time, there was time, she could say that she had time every day."

"Then why don't you forget it, she may not want to divorce you, so she deliberately said that she didn't have time, which shows that she hasn't given up on you, why don't you go with the flow and live like this."

"It's not enough, I'm completely done with her, it's just that I'm too busy now to take care of this matter, and besides, the formalities for our marriage were done in the provincial capital, and she had to come to the provincial capital to go through the formalities with me if she wanted to leave, so I didn't insist that she come with me immediately."

"Oh, that's right, so does the person you're looking for have a purpose?"

"That's so easy, the person I want to find may not be at all, and even if there is, I can't meet it, I can only think about it."

"I have a candidate here, I don't know if you're interested."

"Oh, tell me about it."

"It's Yu Xiaoli in the bar of our restaurant, you should have an impression."

"It's that Miss Yu, there is an impression, there is an impression, she is young and beautiful, she looks like a fairy, why, isn't she married?"

"No, no, I didn't even talk about the object."

"Oh, really?" Yao Qiming was taken aback, and said in high spirits: "How is that possible, I am at least twenty years older than her, how can she take a fancy to me and not let her have children, isn't this whimsical, does the toad want to eat swan meat, and besides, a woman like her, what kind of man can't find it, could it be that she has taken a fancy to my money." ”

"You're wrong, she definitely won't fancy a man's money, it's not that she doesn't want children, but she doesn't have children at all, otherwise she would have gotten married and had children, and men who like her abound, but it's because of this reason that she hasn't married for a long time, plus she is arrogant, and she can't look down on men who don't have a certain level, so she has been hanging."

"How can I say this, I'm a little confused, what does it mean to not be a child at all?"

"When she was seventeen years old, she lost her fertility due to an accident, otherwise it would have been my turn to tell you today."

"Oh, I see, I can't figure it out, how do you know her so well, you know even that you can't have such a big privacy, could it be that she has something with you, because you have a family and can't accept her, so you pushed her to me."

Hearing this, Hong Fusheng suddenly glared at Yao Qiming angrily, and said to him with a very serious expression: "How can you think of me like this, am I that kind of person?" My family is very happy, and my wife and her family are so kind to me, how could I do anything to be sorry for her. To tell you the truth, this Yu Xiaoli is the only biological daughter born to my ex-wife and me. Her life events have always been my biggest heart problem, if I didn't see that you are a very good person, and the family is fragmented, would you tell you this? ”

"Oh, then why is she called Yu Xiaoli instead of your surname Hong?"

"Her mother's surname is Yu, and her real name is Hong Jiali, because I was bad at the time, which broke her mother's heart, and she changed her daughter's name because she hated me."

"I, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really don't know, I beg your pardon, you are such a good father, I respect you very, very much."

"It's okay, isn't it an exaggeration for those who don't know, after talking for so long, you haven't shown your attitude yet."

"Of course I can't ask for it, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how can I be unwilling, but I don't know if she is willing, I am so much older than her, isn't it too wronged by her."

"If I hadn't consulted my daughter, how could I have made it so clear to you."

"That's great, it's not convenient today, I'll come over alone another day, and trouble Boss Hong to introduce you."

"Okay, that's it."

They talked so lively, the two couples didn't know why, so it was not good to interject casually, only to drink and have fun by themselves, each pair exchanged their feelings, and unconsciously another hour passed, everyone got up and left the Fuxing Restaurant together after they were full of wine and food.

Three days later, at more than five o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday, Yao Qiming carried two large bags of gifts full of food to the bar counter of the restaurant, and handed the two bags of things to Xiaoli, Xiaoli because she listened to her father told her that she had told Boss Yao, so she was a little shy and refused to accept the gift bag, Boss Yao insisted on pushing it to her, and Xiaoli was embarrassed to accept it, Boss Yao dropped the gift bag as he wished and went to find Hong Fusheng, Xiaoli called Xiaohong, and the two girls happily looked for the food they liked to eat in the gift bag. At this time, Hong Fusheng called and asked Xiaoli to go to the Meigui Hall on the fourth floor, and Xiaoli hesitated for a while and went up to the fourth floor.

Xiaoli, who entered the Meigui Hall, saw that Hong Fusheng and Boss Yao were already standing at the dining table to greet her, so she called her father with a smile and then greeted Yao Qiming. ”

"No, Dad, I'm afraid that Xiaohong won't be busy alone at the bar downstairs."

"It doesn't matter, today is Sunday, there are not many guests, if you are really busy, I will arrange for someone else to top it for you first, and you can accompany Boss Yao here with peace of mind."

Xiaoli didn't say anything more, nodded in agreement and sat on both sides of the table with Yao Qiming.

There were only Xiaoli and Yao Qiming in the Meigui Hall, they first said some innocuous words in a restrained manner for a long time, and then the more they talked, the more speculative they became, and gradually from restraint to casual, and from casual to affectionate, they talked a lot. They talked about the world, talked about the past and the present, what life, ideals, and strange phenomena they saw and heard in real life. Xiaoli is very interested. I didn't eat and drink much, but I said a lot. After a pause, Yao Qiming said to Xiaoli: "I'm so happy today, it's been a long time since I've talked so happily with a person alone, let alone with a woman as beautiful as a fairy, what interesting things do you like to listen to when talking to people." ”

"Me too, I'm extra happy today, I love listening to stories."

"Oh, what do you like to hear?"

"Any story, as long as it's funny and funny. When I was in middle school, our Chinese teacher had a lot of stories, and whenever he talked about a text, he had a story related to that text, and I would listen to him tell the story without blinking. ”

"Shall I tell you an interesting story?"

"Okay, you say, you say, I'll listen."

"One day in ancient times, there were three young Xiucai into Beijing to catch the exam, when they were about to walk to the capital, passing by a small town, saw a sign in front of a family in the town to measure the word fortune, one of them Xiucai proposed that why not go in to find the fortune teller to calculate who of the three of us can pass the exam this year, the two Xiucai immediately agreed, so the three people entered the fortune teller's house, the fortune teller learned when they counted, so he pretended to close his eyes and pinch his left hand, and then pinch his right hand, and then opened his eyes and stretched out a finger, Sanxiucai asked what he meant, and the fortune teller said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed, and it would be revealed after the exam. Sanxiucai continued to rush to take the exam with doubts, and a few days later the examination was over, Zhang Bang saw that only one person had won, and the Xiucai who had won the test recalled a finger of the fortune teller, and suddenly realized that he was really accurate, so he brought a lot of gold and silver to the fortune teller's home to express his gratitude, and the fortune teller naturally accepted it without hesitation. After Xiucai left, his wife asked her husband how he had calculated that only one person had passed the exam. The fortune teller smiled and said to his wife that I could know that only one person had passed the exam, and his wife wondered, so the fortune teller told her that it was exactly three talents, and I came out with one, how to explain it was reasonable, and the three of them were one in the exam together; Two people who fail in the test are also one; Only one of the two failed exams was still one in the exam; The three of them didn't pass the test, that is, they didn't pass the test together, and it was still a word, so this one is appropriate, and it turns out that the mystery is here. ”

"Interesting and interesting, multiple answers to a thing can't be separated from one word, that fortune teller is too clever."

"This is the fortune teller's deception, the so-called fortune telling, in fact, is a clever deception, the spirit is not in the psychological effect of the fortune teller, this is called the idealistic soul, believe is there, do not believe is not."

"Yes, yes, you have a point."

"Do you believe in your fate?"

"I don't believe it, if I want to say my life, my life is too bitter, if I believe in my life, I won't be able to live a day."

"Yes, I've heard Boss Hong talk about your situation, I'm sorry for you, I just don't know what that happened, he said it very vaguely, can you tell me the specific reason?"

"Please don't ask, I'll tell you when it's time to tell you."

"Okay, then I want to ask, I'm twenty years older than you, if you follow me, will you feel wronged?"

"Of course there are grievances, how young am I, and I look no worse than others, I naturally want to find someone of the same age who has never had a child to live with, have a child of my own together, love and educate together. Why do you want to find a father who has a family and children, but what can I do, the fatal weakness in my body makes me proud and has to compromise, this is the so-called life, my life should be like this, helpless. Xiaoli said with a sad expression.

"You are so pitiful, I sympathize with you very much, if you can be with me, I will cherish you and love you, as long as you don't ask me to take the moon in the sky and the jewels under the sea, I will do it for you, and do my best to create a comfortable and happy living environment for you."

"Sympathy and pity are not love, what I need is not pity, but sincere love, age should not be an obstacle, as long as you and I think in one place, work hard in one place, and try to find a common language, I think we should be able to live very happily, very pleasantly, but it is still too early, you are not divorced, and you have an honorary wife, so we can only be ordinary friends for the time being, so the marriage is not to be talked about beforehand, am I right?"

"Yes, yes, I must step up the matter of divorce, and I will give you a satisfactory answer as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll see what you do. Shall you stop here today? Thank you for the dinner. ”

"Okay, then I want to ask you to play again next week, can you tell me your mobile phone number?" I'll be in touch with you directly. ”

Xiaoli thought about it and seemed a little hesitant, but later reported her mobile phone number to Yao Qiming. It was only then that their first formal meeting and conversation came to an end.

CHAPTER XVI

"The East wants to know, Mo Daojun is early, people are not old in Qingshan, and the scenery is unique here" The scenery is beautiful, the scenery is charming, and the rockery lakes reflect each other from afar; Shengqilou, Mochou statue has its own characteristics, the building courtyard is antique, the famous tourist attraction at home and abroad Mochou Lake Park, in the dazzling sunshine ushered in batches of guests from all walks of life who came to play and appreciate from the beginning of the morning exercise.

At 9 a.m. on April 7, Yao Qiming and Yu Xiaoli, who were dressed neatly and brightly, got out of the BMW car in the parking lot on the side of the park, and walked into Mochou Lake Park side by side, talking and laughing. They walked all the way to see the scene, and when they came to a scenic spot, they had to carefully read the origin of the scene and interesting legends. When she walked in front of the statue of Mo Chou Nu, Xiaoli stopped and stared at the statue with infinite emotion for a long, long time. Yao Qiming stood silently and waited for her to move, Xiaoli finally moved her eyes to Yao Qiming, smiled at him a little embarrassedly before walking away, they arrived at the lake, listening to the "whoosh, whoosh" sound made by gently patting the shore, looking at the clear ripples, the mood was as relaxed and comfortable as the lake. In an instant, the boats of various colors rowing on the lake came into their eyes, and Yao Qiming said to Xiaoli on a whim: "Xiaoli, we will also rent a boat to swim on the lake, and it is unique to sit on the boat and watch the scenery." ”

"Okay, let's rent a flower boat."

After a while, a small tarpaulin boat with yellow flowers on a red background rowed towards the center of the lake, and other flower boats that were originally in the lake formed a colorful and beautiful picture. The boat is stepped on by foot, divided into two rows of seats in front and back, a steering wheel in front, Xiaoli sits in front and controls the steering wheel, Yao Qiming is behind, the two step on the boat together, although it is very hard, but it is very pleasant, and the force is naturally generated.

"Xiaoli, you are so beautiful today, this pink outfit is paired with a pink satchel, which is both gorgeous and unconventional."

"Thank you for the compliment, I rarely dress up so carefully, every day I go to work in the restaurant, I have to wear that kind of work clothes, not earthy, not foreign, nothing to look at."

"That's because of work, you have to do it, but you are beautiful, and you will shine brightly in whatever you wear."

"You're really going to do what you like, but I'm still a big fan of it, hee-hee." Xiaoli let out a sweet smile.

When the boat arrived at the center of the lake, Xiaoli turned around and sat face to face with Yao Qiming, the boat was gently swaying with the wind and waves, the lake was rolling forward in waves, the fish jumped out of the water from time to time, and the visitors praised one after another. Yao Qiming saw Xiaoli looking at the beautiful scenery around her with a bright smile, so he pretended to hold Xiaoli's hand inadvertently, Xiaoli wanted to withdraw her hand like an electric shock, but Yao Qiming held it very tightly, Xiaoli did not succeed, so he stared at him and said: "Please let go, there are many people on this lake, and it is embarrassing to see it." ”

"Don't let go, your hands are so delicate, I hold it comfortably, there is a feeling of spring heart rippling, let me hold it for a while, the people on the lake are talking about each other, that will care about us."

"You are middle-aged, are you still so romantic, the spring heart is rippling, and you are sorry for what you said."

"Don't people have passion when they reach middle age? The older you are, the more you value your feelings, the older you get, the more you know how to cherish life and cherish the best time in the world. ”

"That's, that's, childlike fun will always exist, otherwise how can there be an old naughty boy."

"Then you can treat me like an old urchin, I want to play with your hands now."

"Okay, I'll take this hand down and give it to you, so you can take it back and play slowly." Xiaoli said as she made a gesture to take down the hand.

The two laughed in unison, and Yao Qiming said while laughing: "This is worth it, wouldn't that scare me to death." ”

Xiaoli smiled even more, through the laughter, she pretended to unintentionally turn her face to other places, Yao Qiming also followed Xiaoli's gaze, Xiaoli took this opportunity to retract her hand, and squinted at Yao Qiming and winked mischievously, Yao Qiming pointed at her with his finger and said, "What a naughty little girl." Xiaoli shrank her head and stuck out her tongue to make another strange appearance.

"Boss Yao, how did you and your wife meet and get married?"

"Oh, it's not worth mentioning, my marriage to her was basically arranged by my parents. Although we are high school classmates, but in school we hardly speak, she is withdrawn, not social, it is difficult to see her smile, she is very beautiful, it can be said that second only to you, but all day like a piece of ice, cold no one dares to approach, who do you say has the courage to touch a moving ice cube. She is at home and at school every day, as if she is a programmed robot, and she will always be that track. After finishing junior high school, I went on to high school, but instead of going to school, I went to a handicraft workshop run by a neighborhood, and after graduating from high school, I also went to work as a skilled worker in a factory in the county. Fate is so tricky, we are two people who have nothing to do with each other, it should be said that it is impossible to become a family, but who knows, her father and I are good friends from childhood to adulthood, go to school together, serve as soldiers together, and recover together, and both entered the county-level organs, he is good as a person, when I and she are just in their early twenties, the parents of the two insisted on me and her together, that place was still relatively backward and feudal in that era, and few people dared to disobey the orders of their parents, I married her in a state of powerlessness, and soon after the marriage she gave birth to a daughter. Later, the **** ended, the college entrance examination system was restored, and I was admitted to the university in the second year of the resumption of the college entrance examination, that is, in 1978, and I went to the provincial capital to attend the engineering college when my daughter was still breastfeeding. Before I graduated from college, my three-year-old daughter died prematurely due to a serious illness, which caused her to be even more reticent. After graduating from university, I stayed in a public computer company in the provincial capital, since then I and she have gathered less and left more, even when I will be in my hometown during the winter and summer vacations, she also lives in her mother's house more than our own home, and the husband and wife are even rarer, but who would have thought that in this rare, she actually got pregnant again and gave birth to the current son, she has a son, in addition to work, basically stay at home, live in her mother's house and do not come back, her son she takes with her, if I want to see her mother's house, She threw herself on her son, did she treat me as a husband, and after I had my own business and house in the provincial capital, I planned to bring her mother and son together, but she was determined to refuse, and after many attempts to persuade her to no avail, I filed for divorce from her. ”

"It's incredible that you have an emotionless marriage, and it can last so long."

"Who's to say it isn't!"

"Since she has agreed to the divorce, why is she still reluctant to go through the formalities with you?"

"You ask me this question, but I don't know who to ask, she is so introverted that she doesn't bother to say three sentences to me. There is nothing you can do about him. ”

"Does she have autism?"

"What's not, it's just that I have that symptom, and it's because of this that I don't dare to force her, so the divorce has been on the table. Okay, don't mention it, I'm afraid I'm going to jump into the lake again, so I'm still interested in playing again. ”

"How deep is this lake, you can't drown if you jump, you can jump into the Yangtze River if you want to."

"I wanted to jump, but you broke into my life, and good days beckoned to me, so why should I go and die."

"I'm not your wife, and I have nothing to do with you jumping yours."

"You're a reserver, and you'll turn regular sooner or later."

"How dare you say it. Alright, it's almost time, let's get to the shore. The boat swayed, and sailed towards the shore little by little under the treading of the two of them, like the happy mood of the boat riders. went ashore and returned the color boat, Yao Qiming grabbed Xiaoli, Xiaoli did not refuse this time, and walked towards the gate of the park with him.

"It's already noon, what are we going to eat?" Yao Qiming asked Xiaoli.

"I want to eat pasta, it's too boring to eat every day, how about we change the taste?"

"Okay, let's find a good noodle restaurant and enjoy a good meal, and I'll take you to sing karaoke after eating."

"Great, I love listening to people sing the most."

Mochou Lake Park is located in the southwest of the provincial capital, and the park is surrounded by a densely populated and prosperous downtown area, with all kinds of goods and food. Yao Qiming and Xiaoli, who left the gate, did not immediately pick up the car, but walked less than 200 meters east along the street to enter a snack restaurant called Hao Xianglai, where they had a full meal before walking back to the parking lot, driving the car to a karaoke self-service song hall in the center of the city and asking for a small private room.

"I've seen you there, I've seen you there, your smile is so familiar, I can't remember it for a while, ah..., I've seen you in a dream, I've seen you in a dream, it's you, it's you, it's you in a dream." Yao Qiming stood in front of the sofa in the private room, gesturing with one hand, holding the microphone in the other, shaking his head, shaking his body, and singing love songs seriously. Xiaoli sat on the sofa, holding a teacup, watching Yao Qiming happily enjoy his performance.

The light in the private room is dim, but you can see the human face, the area is not large, only about ten square meters, there is a multi-person sofa against the wall, in front of the sofa is a rectangular glass coffee table, on which there are freshly brewed tea and thermos flasks, melon seeds, peanuts and peeled fruits, there is a more than 30-inch color TV hanging on the opposite wall, and there is a bedside table-sized song ordering device in the corner, there is not much space in addition.

"Xiaoli, you can sing a song, let me also appreciate and appreciate your beautiful singing voice." Yao Qiming said as he handed the microphone to Xiaoli.

"Oh, I don't sing, I don't sing, I don't have all five notes, it's too ugly to sing."

"If the five tones are not complete, the singing will be complete, and besides, there are just the two of us here, who will laugh at you."

"Alright then, I'll give you a scandal." Xiaoli took the microphone, stood up, and sang to the lyrics on the TV, the posture and singing voice were really not flattering, Yao Qiming sat on the sofa and laughed secretly, but he was afraid that Xiaoli would find out, so he covered his mouth and didn't dare to make a sound, when Xiaoli was about to finish singing a song, Yao Qiming couldn't help laughing, leaning forward and bowing back with a straight smile, Xiaoli was ashamed to find a hole to get into, she angrily threw the microphone on the coffee table, and the whole person fell on the sofa and said: "I said I don't sing, you have to be a strong person to say that it is difficult, It's a shame on me. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's better to sing it a few more times." Yao Qiming couldn't close his mouth and squeeze out this sentence.

"Just pull it down, sing it a few more times, I won't sing it again, lest I make you laugh stupid and become a fool."

At this time, the music sounded again, Yao Qiming, in order to ease the atmosphere, pulled Xiaoli to stand up, and hugged her, with the sound of the music twisted, Xiaoli was unprepared for him to dance steps, the two of them were back and forth in the small space, pacing, for a while Yao Qiming had to put his head on Xiaoli's shoulder, his face was close to Xiaoli's face, and his arms were more tightly clamped with Xiaoli, Xiaoli didn't have time to dodge, so he had to move mechanically with his actions. Melodious music resounded in all the spaces of the box; Excited thoughts filled every nerve in them. Yao Qiming was excited to Xiaoli's face, and couldn't help but say to Xiaoli's ear: "Xiaoli, you are so beautiful, I really want to put you down immediately, and I will get you immediately." ”

"Don't think nonsense, what kind of place is this, if you dare to be presumptuous, I will yell immediately, so that you can't eat and carry it, and besides, that thing is impossible, I won't give it to you until I see your divorce certificate."

"Ah, it's so cruel, can't you be accommodating?"

"There is no room for accommodation, although I have weaknesses, I am not a nonsense woman, please understand." The music paused, Xiaoli pushed him away, sat back on the sofa, and said to Yao Qiming after eating a few pieces of fruit and melon seeds and peanuts casually: "It's been more than an hour, and it's been a great fun day, let's go and send me back to the restaurant." ”

"Okay, can I call you next time?"

"Okay, but it has to be on a Saturday or Sunday, or I won't be able to leave."

"Got it." After saying that, they left the song hall and returned to the place where the car was stored, and the two got on and drove the car away, and when they arrived at the door of the restaurant, they said goodbye to each other happily.

In the next two Sundays, they visited the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and Xuanwu Lake, and went to Meihua Mountain to watch the bright and colorful plum blossoms, and went to Jiming Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha. Xiaoli is enjoying the good time she has never enjoyed, although she is a little tired, but her heart is still beautiful. In the blink of an eye, it was the legal holiday of May Day, at more than ten o'clock in the morning, Yao Qiming's BMW car stopped at the door of Fuxing Restaurant, he got out of the car and walked to the bar in the living room, and said to Xiaoli who was standing inside: "Xiaoli, go, I'll take you to the buffet." ”

Xiaoli looked at him, and turned her gaze to Xiaohong on the side with some hesitation, Xiaohong smiled at Xiaoli and said: "Sister Xiaoli, you go, there will not be many guests today, I will come over alone, I will say hello to the boss in a while, you can go eat with confidence, have fun." ”

Xiaoli happily nodded to Xiaohong and said in gratitude: "Thank you very much, you will be tired here, and you will make up for it later." After speaking, he went out of the gate with Yao Qiming.

After a while, they arrived at the southeast of Xinjiekou Square, the most prosperous commercial center in the provincial capital, drove the car to the underground parking lot, and after parking the car, they took the elevator up to the high-end and luxurious cafeteria on the eighth floor, and found a seat by the window to sit face to face, Yao Qiming took out a bottle of foreign wine from his bag, poured a glass for Xiaoli and himself, Xiaoli pushed away the wine glass and said: "I don't drink, and besides, this kind of wine is even more unaccustomed to drinking." ”

"It's okay, this is foreign wine, not much degree, drink it to wash the intestines and appetize, it is good for health, I don't believe you try it."

After hearing this, Xiaoli tried a small sip, and felt that the taste was strange, so she put down the wine glass and said to Yao Qiming: "Don't pour it for me again, you have to drink it yourself, I can't get used to it, let's get a bottle of drink." ”

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to pour it for you anymore, but you must drink this cup."

After Xiaoli nodded, the two stood up and went to the food rack to pick up the vegetables, and after a while, they each returned to their seats with two plates full of dishes, and chatted while eating: "Xiaoli, your father's restaurant is running well, he is very good at business, but he is quite old, and I am afraid he will not be able to do it in a few years." ”

"It's been a few years, and now he looks a little powerless, and he wants to sell the restaurant, I'm really a little worried."

"Then you accept it, the environment and equipment of the restaurant are very good, you have been working there for a few years, you should be familiar with all aspects of the restaurant, and there will be no big problem in taking over the operation."

"How can I have that ability, and besides, I'm a single woman, how can I afford such a big scene."

"It's up to people, learn by doing, learn by doing, and there is no mountain of flames that can't be crossed."

Xiaoli didn't say any more, as if she wasn't interested in this question, Yao Qiming saw this and pulled the topic away very interestingly. They continued to eat and drink, during which they all went to pick up the dishes again, when Xiaoli got up again to go to the bathroom, turned around to leave, Yao Qiming took out a small packet of medicinal powder prepared in advance from his pocket and poured it into the wine glass that Xiaoli had not finished drinking on the table, and then picked up the wine glass and shook it a few times and put it back in its place, Xiaoli said to Yao Qiming when she came back after a while: "I'm full, today is really appetizing, I ate a full meal." ”

"You haven't finished drinking this glass of wine yet, let's leave after drinking it, this wine is very expensive, it's a pity to waste it."

Xiaoli felt that what he said made sense, so she sat down and drank the wine glass without thinking, and then smiled at Yao Qiming, but who would have thought that when Xiaoli's smile was not contained, she suddenly felt a little dizzy, so she asked: "Why is this wine a little dizzy." ”

"It's okay, you're not used to drinking this wine, maybe it'll be fine for a while."

Xiaoli nodded knowingly, and then stood up and wanted to leave, suddenly her body shook, her mind was not in charge, she hurriedly held the table, and she didn't fall, Yao Qiming saw this scene and immediately came over and clamped her, Xiaoli leaned on Yao Qiming's body, the two walked to the elevator entrance, the elevator went straight down to the underground garage, Xiaoli went to the front of the car with Yao Qiming's support, Yao Qiming opened the back door of the car and put Xiaoli on the seat, the car quickly drove to the southernmost part of the Olympic Sports Center like a low-altitude hovering plane, a high-end residential area, In the courtyard of the villa where Yao Qiming lived, the car stopped, Yao Qiming got off the driver's seat, and then opened the back door, at this time Xiaoli was already asleep, and she didn't know anything, Yao Qiming hugged Xiaoli very hard, opened the door, went straight to his bedroom on the second floor, and put Xiaoli on the Simmons bed. Xiaoli lay on the bed on all fours, only wheezing and no response, Yao Qiming eased his spirit, looked at Xiaoli who was sleeping heavily, and then stripped her of her by dividing her by two, and took off all her clothes and pants, and pressed on Xiaoli's body ...... slippery and impatiently.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that Xiaoli opened her eyes dimly, by the faint light, she saw that she was in a strange room, her heart was shocked, and then she opened the quilt, and found that she was lying naked on the bed, and she was even more shocked, she unconsciously reached out and touched the man who was sleeping soundly and was not wearing clothes, she took a closer look, it was Yao Qiming, and immediately became angry, she turned sideways, shrunk her legs, and then aimed at Yao Qiming to kick hard, it was this blow, Yao Qiming rolled to the ground and woke up, He got up and turned on the light, and the room was suddenly bright and dazzling, and he stood naked on the side of the bed and shouted at Xiaoli: "What are you doing, why are you kicking me." ”

"Where is this? What have you done to me? ”

"This is my home, for you, I've done everything I had to do."

"You're so despicable, how can you do something like this while I'm not prepared?"

"Isn't it a matter of time or time, I'm just making an advance in advance." Yao Qiming spread his hands and showed an indifferent posture.

"Seeing that you look like a serious man, it turns out to be a sanctimonious hypocrite, your heart is so dirty, and you use such despicable means to meet your sexual requirements, this kind of thing should be consensual, isn't it the same as a beast in doing this?"

"I'm not a gentleman, let alone hypocritical, I'm a man, an ordinary man who likes beautiful women, I'm sorry, my method is a little inappropriate, but I'm sincere to you, please don't be angry, this is compensation for you." Yao Qiming said as he took out a bundle of banknotes from his satchel and handed it to Xiaoli.

As soon as Xiaoli saw the money, she was even more angry and shouted, "What are you doing with me?" Being a prostitute? After saying that, she lifted the quilt, regardless of the shame of being naked, stepped out of bed to find something that could be smashed at him, and when she found the table lamp on the bedside table, she did not hesitate to hold it with both hands, and threw it at Yao Qiming, Yao Qiming's eyes flashed to the side quickly, and the innocent table lamp fell to the ground, and it was shattered. Xiaoli was still angry, and continued to look for something to smash, Yao Qiming hurriedly jumped from the side of the bed to this side, opened his arms and hugged Xiaoli and said, "Don't smash, don't smash, there is something to say." Xiaoli couldn't move, but she was still angry in her heart and said to her, "Let go, don't touch me again." Yao Qiming let go, Xiaoli walked to the bed a little calmly, picked up the bundle of banknotes and smashed it on Yao Qiming's face, and in an instant the banknotes were scattered on a bed and a place, Xiaoli entered the bathroom naked and barefoot without looking at it.

Xiaoli turned on the water heater, held the movable showerhead, and rinsed her body while crying. Xiaoli, who has not shed tears for a long time, once again covered her cheeks. At this moment, the tears are half hatred and half sadness, hatred only hates why sex is always greater than love in this world; Sadness is only sadness, and once again I have no chance with love. She washed while crying, the sound of water and crying filled the bathroom of only four or five square meters, Xiaoli seemed to be very dirty, and only by rinsing thousands of times could all the dirt be removed. Ask what is the situation in the world, only let people promise each other with their bodies, but this Xu is willing, happy and joyful Xu, not shamelessly possessed Xu by despicable means, Xiaoli also thought of giving it to him, but that was on the wedding night, full of joy and unreserved dedication to him, what is this now? Xiaoli was in great pain, tears couldn't stop falling, she washed again, and it took a full hour for her to wrap around the bath towel and prepare to come out.

Xiaoli's sad cry in the bathroom reached Yao Qiming's ears in the room, and he wanted to go into the bathroom with some regrets to comfort her with words, but he was afraid of being attacked by Xiaoli again, so he paced back and forth in the room with an uneasy expression. When the RMB on the bed and on the ground met his eyes, Yao Qiming was even more ashamed to put away the money one by one, and put the money into the satchel that Xiaoli threw on the bed, after which he put on his clothes and sat on the stool next to the bed and waited for Xiaoli.

Xiaoli, who was still very angry, asked Yao Qiming when she got out of the bathroom, "Did you drugged my wine?" ”

"No, how is it possible, anyone who drinks that wine for the first time will feel dizzy."

"Nonsense, no matter how dizzy you are, you can't be delirious, you don't know anything, what kind of medicine did you take, you are truthful, you are not only despicable, but also very shameless and obscene, I want to sue you, so that you will not end well."

"Sue me, do you have any evidence, the two of us are in love, is it normal for this to happen in love, why are you making a fuss, it's not ......." Yao Qiming shut his mouth.

"Are you a married man qualified to fall in love? I'm going to give it to you, but it must be after you get married, you do this is tantamount to self-destruction of your image, and at the same time you have ruined the relationship between the two of us, and what you get now means that you will lose forever. ”

"What sin should you commit if you know that I am a married man, and still associate with me?"

Xiaoli was speechless for a while, but she was still very angry and said to him: "I don't want to deal with you anymore, send me back, if you don't send me, I'll take a taxi by myself, and I don't want to stay here for a minute." After Xiaoli finished speaking, she quickly put on her clothes, and glanced at it by the way, and saw that the banknotes on the bed and the ground were missing, and she was not in the mood to pay attention to them anymore and opened the door and walked out of the room.

Yao Qiming drove Xiaoli to the entrance of the rented house where she lived, and they didn't say a word on the way. It was seven o'clock in the morning.

At eight o'clock, Xiaoli arrived at the hotel, she did not enter the bar, but climbed directly to the fifth floor, pushed open the door of the manager's room, walked to Hong Fusheng, who was sitting in the back of the office, put down the satchel with a frustrated face, and took out the bundle of banknotes from it and threw it on the table. Hong Fusheng stared at Xiaoli in wonder and asked, "Jiali, what's wrong with you, what's the matter with this money?" ”

Xiaoli told Hong Fusheng about last night's events very painfully.

"How can he do this, take you for someone, you should smash this money in his face." Hong Fusheng said angrily after hearing this

"I smashed him, but when I washed he stuffed it in my bag, and I just found out."

"How can this be reasonable, it's not a person, it's almost like a brute, what's the difference between this and rape, and the medicine is used, and the means are too despicable. I called him and asked him. After speaking, he hung up the phone to Yao Qiming: "Hey, is it Yao Qiming?" ”

"Yes, I am, who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is the good deeds you did last night, you are still not human, how can you use such despicable means to deal with a weak woman? What is the difference between doing this and a brute, you are rape, and you are breaking the law. I'm so blind that I made such a friend as you and introduced my own daughter to you. You even stuffed 10,000 yuan, didn't you treat her like a prostitute? Do you think money can buy everything? You're rich, aren't you? If you have money, can you do anything wrong? It's shameless. ”

"Brother Hong, have you finished scolding, please listen to my explanation after scolding, I really like her and want to live with her, yes, I used methods that should not be used, but I love her beauty too much, I want to get her as soon as possible, I treat her as a baby, otherwise how can I make a move for 10,000 yuan? Do you use so much to find prostitutes? All in all, I'm sincere and I hope you understand. ”

"If you want to be nice to her, you shouldn't use that method, it's just the opposite of that, you have destroyed all the image in her mind, she hates you to death, and now she is here with me, I want to sue you, the money is also on my table, you come and take it, don't think that money can reach the sky, there are still more precious things in the world than money."

"I can't make it clearer, if she is still so angry, I have no choice, let her sue if you want to, I'm waiting for the police to arrest me, anyway, I've done it, it's impossible to redeem it, as long as she has evidence, the sue is through, I'm willing to be punished, who makes me like her." If she has to do that, let her do it well, and she is not an innocent girl or a yellow flower girl, I don't like it, and I don't hesitate to abandon it. ”

"You just said that you like her and love her, how can you say that you don't like her and don't hesitate to abandon it, isn't it duplicitous, and the preface doesn't match the afterword."

"She wants to sue me, what do I like and cherish."

"You're really small-bellied, you don't have any grace at all, then you can do it yourself, and wait for retribution." Hong Fusheng put down the microphone very angrily and stopped talking to him. Xiaoli looked at her father, whose face was a little red, and suddenly felt warm in her heart, and she was no longer so uncomfortable and said to Hong Fusheng: "Just let him go?" It's too cheap for him. ”

"So what can we do? You don't have any evidence of his druggedness, and besides, it's not the first time you've dated her, if he insists that he hasn't drugged, will you have him, or I'll find a few people to beat him up and relieve your anger. ”

"What's the point of that, he's unkind, we can't be unjust, but what about this money?"

"You take the money, don't take it for nothing, you have already paid, wouldn't it be too cheap for him not to take it, besides, it wasn't what you asked him for, he was willing to give it to you, wouldn't it be a fool not to take it? A shameless and tasteless man like this will just ignore him in the future, so why be angry with him again. ”

Xiaoli stopped talking, silently put the 10,000 yuan in her satchel, and nodded to her father with grateful eyes, then left the office and went to work at the bar.

In this way, this love affair that is not considered a love affair ended hastily.
