128 It's been a long wait
As expected. γFengyun Reading Network. Xia Wei let go of the doorknob.
At this moment, Xia Xiaohui breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she vaguely thought that Xia Wei would really throw herself away, after all, this child was taken too far by the wild girl outside.
Xia Xiaohui's breath was not finished yet, but Xia Wei gently pushed away Tang Xiangwan who was blocking in front of her, slowly walked towards her mother, and said, "Mom, follow me back to the room, I have something to say." β
Xia Wei took his mother's hand and returned to his room. After the door was closed, he asked, "She said she was here to take me home, didn't she?" β
Xia Xiaohui suddenly choked up, "So what does she mean?" Irony this is not your home? What qualifications does she have? Or is it because you don't think of this place as your home anymore? β
"Don't blame her, she just doesn't think I'm comfortable here."
Xia Wei smiled. Now she remembers one of the most failed TV series she's ever acted in. At that time, she found that she did not understand the way ordinary girls get along with their parents. Fortunately, that play was performed when she was in her early teens, and it is understandable that her acting skills are not perfect. When she grew up, she never took on any role with a strong family atmosphere.
Xia Xiaohui silently said "uncomfortable" in her heart, and frowned invisibly, which was her pretending to be calm with the heartache.
"During the Spring Festival, I went to visit Shen Bing's parents' home, and after that, I felt more and more that our home was not like a home. Strangely, since I stepped down from the company, even being locked up here every day has made me feel more relaxed. This room has never been so bright in so many years. β
At this time, Xia Wei's desk still had the fruit that Xia Xiaohui cut for her. For so many years, this work was done by the aunt until Xia Wei became useless.
Xia Xiaohui's eyes were sour. She suddenly remembered that Xiao Xia Wei, who was still wearing a double ponytail, sat at the dining table and could no longer talk in a disorderly manner, knew all table manners, and tried to analyze the meaning of her stepfather's and stepbrother's words with her immature brain. At the beginning, she also felt sorry for her daughter, but gradually, all the distress was drowned in the stylized life.
Xia Xiaohui walked to a photo on Xia Wei's bookshelf. It was a photo of her in an interview after starring in a movie for the first time when she was 9 years old. She remembered that Xia Wei had already memorized the settings arranged for her by the adults at that time, and the preferences she answered were not from her original intention. Gradually, Xia Wei really lived as in the setting - from a pure and refined girl, to an intellectual and calm goddess, to a professional and shrewd president.
Xia Xiaohui wiped the wetness from the corners of her eyes with Xia Wei on her back, but she couldn't stop tears from raining down in her heart. As a mother who has long regarded her daughter as a commodity, she felt extremely stinging when she recalled Shen Bing's words.
"So, since I first met Shen Bing many years ago, it was hard for me not to pay attention to her. She's so different from me, that kind of freedom...... I envy me. If it weren't for the fact that I wasn't free enough, I wouldn't have met Shen Bing, let alone liked her. β
Xia Xiaohui sat on the bed with her eyes covered, and read weakly in her mouth, "It's my fault." β
Xia Wei held her hand, "What I look like and what this family looks like is not something you can bear alone." This is the result of the actions of all of us. Now, I don't hate the result. β
"But I can't accept it!"
"What you can't accept is just Shen Bing. But you don't know her. Xia Wei squeezed her mother's hand, "Mom, give me a little time to listen to me talk about her." β
Xia Xiaohui didn't want to listen. But this conversation with her daughter made her feel more relaxed than every time in years. At least there are no companies in them, no jobs and no profits.
Xia Wei took a long time. Starting from the first time she met the seventeen-year-old Shen Bing, she talked about how she worked hard, how she subtly influenced herself, how she endured the hardships that even adults may not be able to bear, and how she fought to get to where she is today.
If it weren't for today's opportunity, Xia Wei didn't expect that many trivial old things would be remembered so clearly by himself.
By the time I finished, about forty minutes had passed. Xia Xiaohui seemed very resistant at first, but then she gradually immersed herself in her daughter's story. Putting aside Shen Bing's embarrassing identity, she admitted that she originally liked this child's temperament. Moreover, if Shen Bing was her own child, she might hate the family in charge of Zhongtang to death.
However, it is still impossible to accept it as a daughter's girlfriend.
Xia Wei didn't expect her to accept it so quickly, and smiled resignedly. She poured her mother a glass of water and told her that she had ordered her online to treat her leg pain. Xia Xiaohui wears a skirt all the year round and follows Tang Zhongxing out to socialize, but in the past few years, she is easy to catch a cold when she is older, and her leg pain has become more and more frequent. Before being confined, Xia Wei never noticed.
"Are you still leaving?" Xia Xiaohui grabbed her hand.
Xia Wei couldn't bear it, so he could only nod. She tore her mother's fingers apart one by one and stood up.
"Even if you tell me so much, I won't accept her. If you leave with her today, I'll assume that you don't want me as a mother. You don't have to come back again. β
Xia Wei was silent for a while and said, "I'm sorry, Mom." If there's one thing I've learned the most important thing since I met her, it's learning to become a layman. Even if you say so, I won't give up on this home. But now, I have to choose that home with her. I made her wait too long. β
Xia Wei grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, rushed out of the room, and ran downstairs as fast as he could. Tang Xiangzhou, who thought that the show was over, heard the footsteps, came out of the room in shock, and shouted to her: "You are not allowed to leave now!" The paparazzi are still outside! β
Xia Wei glanced back at him and left him with a haughty smile. After so many days, she finally walked out of the villa again. In the warm and humid air of the late summer nights, she found that it was raining, not dense or large, but according to the summer habits in Beijing, it would soon turn into a downpour.
The paparazzi outside the yard stood up. They treasure their own cameras, and they will never risk the camera getting wet to continue to accompany Shen Bing.
"Sister." Tang Xiangwan's shout sounded behind him. She paused, ran over and threw herself into Xia Wei's arms, hugging her tightly. Xia Wei said sorry, saying that what she had done disgusted and disappointed her. Tang Xiangwan cried too late to deny it, hugged her for a while, let go of her, didn't even dare to raise his head, just whispered, "Come with her, it should rain heavily in a while." β
After she finished speaking, she ran back and helped Xia Wei press the button of the fence gate. When the door lock of the courtyard gate clicked, the paparazzi and Shen Bing, who were about to say goodbye, were stunned.
Shen Bing was covering the newspaper that had just cushioned his butt on his head to keep out the rain, so he dragged the newspaper with both hands, and looked at the person who came out of the fence gate in shock.
I didn't wear makeup, I lost a little weight, but my face was acceptable and excited. Shen Bing thought: Why is my girlfriend so good-looking?
She was stunned for two seconds, then reacted, and looked left and right at the paparazzi who were also gasping and stunned in place.
"Summer, Summer...... You ......" Shen Bing was a little anxious, pointing at the paparazzi, so panicked that he couldn't say anything. She pretended to be stupid for so long, it was easy to get acquainted with the paparazzi, and she just got their assurance that she would not come to Xia Wei's house again. The target person actually walked out uncharacteristically generously.
Xia Wei shook his head and smiled, walked over and tore off the newspaper above Shen Bing's head, took off the coat he was wearing and covered it. The first sentence is: "I'm sorry, thank you for forgiving me." I'm going to ...... in the future," she laughed, coughing to hide her embarrassment.
Although it was a long time late, and I didn't say what would happen in the end, it was all in plain sight.
She turned to the paparazzi and said, "I've worked hard for you these past few days." You see, I'm really not in the United States, I can take pictures if I want, I can report if I want to, you can do whatever you want. β
The paparazzi seemed to be frightened, and shook their heads again and again at this time.
Shen Bing whispered, "Why did you come out!" I know you're at home, I'm here to clear the field for you! β
Xia Wei had no cover on her head, flashing her wet eyelashes, and looked at her with a smile, "Aren't you going to push me away?" This one was so strong that it pushed me to run. β
Shen Bing snorted and laughed, "Do you know what I originally planned?" I gave them all the food, and with a thunderstorm tonight, I guess I'll get sick in the middle of the night. Even if your family doesn't like me, there's no way I'm going to die right in front of your house, right? That would definitely get me to hide in the house. So I can come and have a look at your house! Anyway, Boss Jia gave me three days. β
Xia Wei's eyes darkened, "If you don't die, you're uncomfortable, aren't you?" β
They looked into the courtyard, and Xia Xiaohui was standing on the stone path in the courtyard, looking at them. She was in the dark, unable to see her expression clearly.
Shen Bing asked softly, "You didn't talk about it, did you?" β
Xia Wei admitted: "No. β
Shen Bing's heart moved, and he gratefully leaned towards the figure in the shadows, and then patted Comrade Xia on the shoulder, "The revolution still needs to work hard, we have time." β
Xia Wei reluctantly glanced at his mother for the last time, and pulled Shen Bing's hand, "Let's go." β
β¦β¦
Xia Wei's car was locked in the garage, and neither of them had any money on them. Fortunately, the distance from the apartment is still within the range of hiking, a few kilometers away, but it is just a longer morning run.
Halfway through the run, the rain really fell heavily. Xia Weizhi insisted that Shen Bing use his coat to block the rain and get drenched by himself, because he was light and had nothing to do, and Shen Bing's body couldn't be broken. This statement was reasonable, and Shen Bing couldn't refute it, so when he finally couldn't move forward in the rain, Xia Wei's clothes were already half soaked.
It was late at night, and there was no sign of anyone on the street during the downpour. The two hid under the eaves of a small shop, looking at the curtain of water around them and listening to the rhythm of the rain lapping on the ground. This is the atmosphere of this moment, perfect for confession.
So, Xia Wei confessed all the plans he had hidden from Shen Bing. Shen Bing listened silently, although the amount of information was very large, it was actually reasonable to think about it carefully.
"So, Zhu Qian is really dead set on you." Shen Bing squatted on the ground, holding his chin and looking at her, his expression was not very pleasant.
Xia Wei patted her skull.
"It turns out that the marketing method of "The Last Wing" was thought of by you."
Xia Wei came to the momentum, "According to the positioning of the film, it is an inevitable choice for professionals to lead the trend, which is very different from ordinary commercial films. β
In this heavy rain, Xia Wei taught Shen Bing another lesson. This time it's about the target audience and hype of the work. Shen Bing listened carefully on the side, and the more he listened, the more he felt the cleverness of the person around him. As this feeling gradually deepened, a strange emotion appeared in her heart.
Finally, the rain stopped. Xia Wei dragged her and continued to run home, because she was so happy, she didn't notice it. Shen Bing's words were unusually few.
β¦β¦
The house was cleaned up, as if waiting for her return.
"Are you tired?" Xia Wei asked Shen Bing.
Shen Bing pursed his lips and shook his head with a smile.
The sound of water in the bathroom is also very nice. Xia Wei was in a good mood, feeling that everything in this house was so comfortable, she hadn't taken off the clothes that were drenched in the rain, she just tried the water temperature half-playfully, and shouted loudly to the outside: "The water temperature is just right, do you want to come in?" β
As soon as he finished speaking, the bathroom door slammed shut. Xia Wei turned his head to look, only to see Shen Bing with his hair loose, his back against the door, his cheeks were red, and he didn't smile at all. She wasn't as relaxed as she used to be, after all, she never blushed in bed, no matter what position she used.
Now, Shen Bing looked a little aggrieved and a little annoyed, staring at the position below Xia Wei's neck and not moving. Her mind was clearly on her mind thinking about something.
