It took Ming Sheng two days to quietly deal with Lu Yaqin's funeral, and even Xie Zhimo only found out about this matter two days later. She bought a platform ticket and sent Mingsheng on the train back to her hometown.

"Is it difficult to buy fake tickets for the National Day? How not to fly. Xie Zhimo shuttled through the aisles blocked by luggage, vigilantly looking at the mixed crowd, "This bus takes more than ten hours, and I have to sit for one night." ”

Actually, it's the train tickets that are more difficult to buy, but she didn't say.

Mingsheng only brought a bag, a dress, snow-white skin, and a dark brown urn. On this train, whose body is already mottled with green paint, she is a passer-by.

She quietly looked out the window: "My sister-in-law doesn't like to fly. ”

Beyond the track are barren grasses on the outskirts of the city, which have turned yellow in the early autumn season. Under the blue sky, the eyes are full of vigorous ** and withered.

Mingsheng's phone rang suddenly.

It was Lin Jun, who came up and cared for a few words, and began to talk to her about the ownership of the property and some inheritance issues, reminding her to keep an eye on it. Mingsheng listened quietly for a while and interrupted him: "Don't say it, I can't listen now." ”

He was stunned for a moment and said, "Sooner or later, I'll have to listen." ”

"A little later. Give me some time. ”

Even Xie Zhimo could see that the phone call was unhappy.

She persuaded: "Lin Jun, this person...... It's just too hard to express. He's actually trying to comfort you. But he has an occupational disease, and the way to comfort people is to force you to think rationally. ”

"I know."

The train attendants have begun to urge relatives and friends to get off the train. Xie Zhimo sighed, and finally asked, "Then, what about Jiang Huaiyi?" And that's the end of it? ”

Mingsheng looked at her for a few seconds, and then sneered: "You weren't like this before." I remember when I first met you, every time I broke up, you were so happy that you said you wanted to invite me to dinner. ”

"That's different." Xie Zhimo frowned slightly, "Don't be sloppy with me." What kind of demons, ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts used to be. This time, I think he's sincere to you. ”

"Is it really worth it? Some boys of his age are really consumable. The road is still long, today it is me, and tomorrow it can be someone else. Mingsheng smiled mockingly, "But what do I want." Obligation to satisfy his fantasies, so that he does not leave regrets of youth? ”

Rao is Xie Zhimo, no matter how partial she is, he also feels that she is too cold at this moment.

Mingsheng was addicted to cigarettes, took out a pack of cigarettes, but realized that the lighter was hidden by Jianghuai Yi at some point, and it was stuffed back to its original place empty.

After being silent for a while, she suddenly raised her head and asked Xie Zhimo, "Do you think I will regret it too?" ”

Xie Zhimo was asked, took a deep breath before answering solemnly, "I don't think so." ”

"As long as it's in the past, I've never seen you regret it." "But I'm sorry for you." ”

The train broadcast lasts a round. Mingsheng blinked slightly, smiled and said, "Go down." See you the day after tomorrow. ”

It took more than ten hours of train and more than two hours of long-distance bus to arrive at Lu Yaqin's town. Many laurel trees are planted in the town, which are fragrant in October. Ming Sheng stepped on the fragrance of flowers all the way and offered Lu Yaqin's ashes to a temple near the river in the town.

The temple incense in the town is not prosperous, and there are black incense ash and red blessing paper everywhere, which looks cold and depressed on a cloudy day in autumn. It rained hard at night, and Mingsheng was lying in a hotel in the town, with the sound of a little girl talking and laughing outside the door, and a few colorful cards were stuffed into the crack of the door.

She fed herself half a bucket of instant noodles and was a little nauseous.

This is when Zhou Jun's call came.

***

Weather forecast, half of East China is eroded by heavy rains.

Zhou Jun got off the taxi and walked one or two meters into the bar, and his shoulders were soaked. He scolded, went in to find the waiter, and was taken into a private room by the familiar car.

Due to the weather, there will be few guests tomorrow night. But there are a lot of people in Jianghuaiyi's box.

Most of them are women, because he has no time to estimate so many people, so he sits on the side, chatting and chatting, playing with mobile phones. Jiang Huaiyi alone occupied the largest sofa and lay sideways in it. Such a tall person, nested in it, but like a nestling occupying the nest, trapped in the dim light, almost invisible to people.

Zhou Jun opened the neat row of wine bottles on the coffee table before he had a place to sit.

He leaned on the edge of the table and looked at Jiang Huaiyi condescendingly: "I said are you crazy, it's been a few days, and you're planning to find death and life for a woman?" ”

Jiang Huai Yi threw out a cup with his backhand and fell apart in the corner of the wall.

"I'm crazy!"

The entire box was quiet, and Zhou Jun could hear the woman's neat inhalation, and he didn't have to look back to know that these people were all looking at them now.

He waved impatiently for the idlers to go out. High heels kick tap step, one after another. Only Jiang Huai Yi moved, pressed a person's leg, and said, "You are not allowed to move." Only then did Zhou Jun realize that there was a woman in a black dress in the corner of the sofa where he was lying, sitting there motionless, and Jiang Huai Yi used other people's thighs as pillows.

Jiang Huaiyi rolled over, his eyes drooping to the ground.

Zhou Jun suppressed his anger and raised his eyes: "You are quite arrogant to me." He cornered closely, Jiang Huaiyi didn't eat normally for several days, drank all night, and the corners of his eyes were red, this nest made him angry for a while, and he felt funny, and sighed, "You said you are so horizontal, what else can you do except force people away?" ”

This sentence seemed to poke him in the heart. Jiang Huaiyi's eyes were moved, and his voice was low and aggrieved: "I didn't treat her." I didn't want to ...... her."

"You told me there was a hair." Zhou Jun took out his mobile phone and dialed in front of him, "You go and apologize to others yourself." ”

Jiang Huaiyi held his hand and canceled the call. He looked at him with a watery gaze: "It's useless." What can I do if I apologize, but she doesn't like me. He fell back in despair, staring blankly at the colored lights on the ceiling, as if he had exhausted all his strength, "I'm so good, why doesn't she like me?" ”

The women in the black dress couldn't help laughing, as if they had never seen such a narcissist, and they still thought so highly of themselves after being dumped. She snorted, was glared back by Zhou Jun, and let her go.

Jiang Huaiyi wanted to obstruct it, but was refuted by Zhou Jun in one sentence: "Do you still want your Sheng to come back?" ”

He let go of his arm, drooped his eyelids, and slowly lay back without saying a word.

There is no need for him to answer, Zhou Jun knows it. Jianghuai Yi has been erosive for so many days, drunk and dreaming of death every day, not even returning home, and stopping taxis every day when he comes and goes, because he feels that even the familiar car reminds him of her. Overkill is like this, and it is strange to be able to die in accordance with it.

Zhou Jun exited the box and dialed Mingsheng's phone.

The sound of torrential rain connects two cities separated by 1,000 kilometres.

Mingsheng asked very coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhou Jun was not angry with Jiang Huai, and when he heard this cold and faint voice, he suddenly became angry: "I just want to ask you, how did you get this hand?" ”

There was a silent rain on the phone.

Zhou Jun calmed down and said in a lamented voice: "Sister Sheng, count me begging you." Don't do that to him. He really likes you, he likes miserable. How many stupid men have you ever seen who can take you for everything? I really haven't been on this trip in a few years. Now that you've caught up, suck your tail away and go. Don't pat your ass and walk away when you're done using it. There is nothing so good in the world. “

In the eyes of his friends, she was a snobbish woman who used him to curry favor with Gu Qianyue for resources. And her recent diligent efforts to socialize and save money to climb up the ladder have proved them right. If it weren't for Jiang Huaiyi liking her, maybe people like Zhou Jun wouldn't bother to talk to her.

Mingsheng recognized this, but felt a little more relaxed: "So what do you want me to do?" ”

"Come to him tomorrow night."

"I'm out of town."

Zhou Jun thought that this was her prevarication, and kicked the fire extinguisher box with a bang: "I really haven't seen a more ruthless woman than you!" ”

The call was disconnected.

Ming Sheng looked at the half bucket of instant noodles on the table again, which was already swollen like a silkworm chrysalis sunk in oil and water. She closed her eyes, and the disgusting sourness was suppressed like a flood of darkness in front of her.
