Chapter 41: A long-lost nightmare
He was not an atheist, he firmly believed that there was a God.
"Is that you? Meiling? He whispered to the shadowy figure.
There was an infinite silence that answered him.
After standing for a moment, he walked towards the figure, and it seemed that the one standing there was really Meiling.
The figure stood there, not moving, just waiting for him to come.
When he got closer, Huo Jingwei saw that there was no figure at all, it was just a pajama, which was Huang Ruirui's pajamas that she had changed out in the morning, hanging them on a hanger and hanging them on a hanger in the corner.
In this nightmarish night, this light pajamas made him have the illusion at first glance, that someone was standing here.
Huo Jingwei was so angry that he tore off his nightdress, threw it on the ground, and stepped on it a few times, only then did he slightly let out the sullenness and anger in his heart.
All the sleepiness was gone, Huo Jingwei stood in front of the window in a daze, looking at the swimming pool in the back garden.
His sturdy and toned body seemed lonely and lonely in this empty bedroom.
Wu's mother also seemed to see that he hadn't slept peacefully all night, and boiled him porridge to nourish his mind and calm his heart.
has been a subordinate in this villa for so long, and his eyesight is particularly accurate.
Seeing Huo Jingwei silently finish the porridge, Wu's mother turned around and asked, "Young master, how many people's meals are going to be prepared tonight?" ”
The young master didn't come back with Huang Ruirui last night, and the shrewd Mother Wu had already vaguely guessed what was wrong between the two.
At least after the young master and Huang Ruirui were together, they were obviously happy both physically and mentally, but in the past two days, the young master's mood was depressed and painful, which actually made him have a precursor to irritability.
"One person." Huo Jingwei held the bowl and put down the porridge in his mouth.
Wu's mother, who got the answer, retreated.
Cleaning up things in the kitchen, Mother Wu sighed secretly, I hope that the relationship between the young master and Miss Huang is just a small grooming of the little couple, I hope that the two gases are gone, Miss Huang can come back, and the young master is not so irritable.
Huo Jingwei changed into formal clothes before going to the company, and when she stepped out of the elevator room, she bumped into Ma Xiaoyun head-on, dressed in a plain professional suit, dusty, which made her originally somewhat sickly face, even more ugly.
"Didn't it give you a good rest?" Huo Jingwei asked, and then walked to his office.
"It's okay, it's not a serious illness that can't get out of bed......" Ma Xiaoyun lowered her head slightly and followed Huo Jingwei into the office.
"If you are like this, others will think that I am too harsh as a boss, and if the employee is sick, I have to let the employee insist on going to work with illness."
"But I just want to be busy, so I don't want to think about something......" Ma Xiaoyun said softly.
Huo Jingwei was silent, he was really busy, it was the best way to divert his attention, he was busy all day long, not hunting, not swimming in the sea, not basking in the sun...... A qiē is for his own busyness.
"I'm going out to do things first." Ma Xiaoyun whispered and exited the office.
Huo Jingwei rubbed his temples, and all day long, he was extremely tired.
He didn't sleep the night before, he didn't sleep well last night, and his head ached.
In the past, there have been two days and two nights without sleep, but in the world, he can maintain his radiant appearance and show everyone the most spiritual side.
But this time, it was different, he felt exhausted from body to mind, and it seemed that after drinking some refreshing tea, the symptoms still did not feel.
He felt like a dog, a dog that had been drained of his spirits.
Ma Xiaoyun knocked on the door and came in with a cup of tea.
"Mr. Huo, I heard from them, you are not in good spirits, you have already drunk a lot of tea, why don't you try my own tea, soothe the liver and nourish the blood, refresh the mind, I have taken it for a long time, and the effect is not bad." She lowered her eyes slightly, her gaze resting on the desk.
"Put it down." Huo Jingwei did not refuse.
He knew that he was only suffering from a heart disease now, and as the years passed, with the enlightenment of his counselor, and with the prayers of the priest...... The layer of guilt that had faded was awakened by Ma Xiaoyun again, even stronger than before.
The guilt in the past was Meiling's death that made him feel guilty, if he hadn't invited Meiling to his home for her birthday, maybe there would have been no tragedy behind, so he felt guilty and let himself live a hard life like an ascetic in order to atone for his sins.
But the guilt now is stronger than before, because he is happy and happy now. Others sleep in the cold underground, but he and Huang Ruirui are in love and happiness all day long.
This strong contrast made him ashamed, and he felt more guilty than before.
I don't deserve to be forgiven, I don't deserve peace of mind, and I don't deserve happiness.
"I had a nightmare last night...... Ma Xiaoyun put down the teacup and didn't quit immediately.
She stood next to the desk, and her slightly sickly face reappeared: "I dreamed of Meiling......"
Huo Jingwei was stunned, and looked up at her slightly, her eyes were full of pain.
Is it true that everyone has always had this knot in their hearts, and even the dreams they had at night were strikingly similar, they all had nightmares, and they all dreamed of Meiling?
Huo Jingwei clearly knew that in his dream, the woman in white clothes and long hair was Meiling, and in the end, the magnified blood-stained face with a slightly hideous smile was what Meiling looked like when she died in his arms.
He hadn't dreamed of her in a long, long time, but now that she had appeared in his dreams again, what was this reminding him?
"I dreamed of Meiling, and she smiled at me, smiling at me with blood all over her face...... She said...... She hadn't seen me in a long time...... I haven't spoken to me for a long time...... "Speaking of which, Ma Xiaoyun can't go on."
Huo Jingwei's hand was clenched into a fist and pressed against his lips, and he fell into his dream.
"I didn't sleep all night last night, and I was thinking, today, not only do I have to go to Meiling's grave and clean her grave, but I also have to prepare some beautiful clothes for her and some beautiful jewelry for her...... She loves beautiful girls so much, she'll love it......"
"Will you come with me today?" Speaking of this, Ma Xiaoyun asked for his meaning.
"Huh?" Huo Jingwei, who was unable to give up, responded.
"I think Meiling would be very happy if she saw the two of us go to see her again today......" Ma Xiaoyun said this, her eyebrows rose slightly, as if she really saw Meiling smile happily.
"Okay......" Huo Jingwei replied firmly.
After returning to China, he had already sent someone to repair Meiling's tomb again, and everything was the best, in the hope that she would live well in another world.
However, he was a big man, and he never thought about giving her some beautiful clothes, some beautiful jewelry, and some beautiful cosmetics.
When Ma Xiaoyun said this, she reminded her.
Indeed, at her age as delicate as a flower and bones, she should have what these girls should have.
"Let's go." Huo Jingwei got up and took the lead in striding out of the office.
Huang Ruirui hesitated for a while, but decided to call Huo Jingwei.
Anyway, the two are lovers, what is bothering him, she is really worried about him. Can't just because he said he wanted to be quiet, she really ignored him and let him go.
There have been several lows in her life, and it was Huo Jingwei's generous mind that gave her support, even if she once gave up on herself and ate in bed for three days, Huo Jingwei was not still quietly by her side, showing all kinds of care for her with practical actions.
Huo Jingwei and Ma Xiaoyun were picking out things for Meiling in the underworld grocery store, and after the shopkeeper's constant lobbying, Huo Jingwei suddenly felt that he owed Meiling more, and didn't give her anything, didn't give her a villa, didn't give her a luxury car, didn't give her crazy six, didn't give her luxury......
It seems that what she should enjoy in this world, she should also have in another world.
Huo Jingwei almost bought all of this underworld shop, and he wanted everything, everything. As long as Meiling can live happily in another world, he is willing to give anything.
Until the phone rang a few times, looking at Huang Ruirui's name beating on the screen, Huo Jingwei hesitated and answered the phone.
"Jingwei ......," Huang Ruirui called him a little worriedly. If you really love someone, sometimes it's so humble to the bone.
If I don't call him, I am a little unwilling, but I really call him, and I am afraid that he will be annoyed, so I haven't seen him for a day, and the phone has been going on non-stop.
"Hmm." Huo Jingwei replied softly.
Although it was a gentle sound, it still gave Huang Ruirui infinite confidence, and her mood was inexplicably much better: "Jingwei, are you free at night?" I bought a lot of vegetables today......"
Huo Jingwei looked at the large pile of underworld goods in front of him and interrupted her words in a low voice: "I'm not free for a while. ”
Huang Ruirui, who was full of joy, was hit into the ice hole by this sentence, he didn't have much time for a while, which meant that he would never see her, and it was very reluctant to connect a phone.
"Jingwei ......" was unwilling, she screamed softly.
"I still have something to do, so let's do it first." Seeing the boss clumsily moving the paper-tied bungalow with the boss lady to the car, Huo Jingwei hurriedly hung up the phone, rushed forward, and helped.
He didn't want the bungalow to be slammed aside, knowing that it was just paper, but the expectations in his heart had exceeded this practical significance.
Huang Ruirui held the phone and trembled for a while, what is this, what does Huo Jingwei mean by this, he didn't say anything, he didn't explain anything, he just put her aside coldly?
In ancient times, if the emperor wanted to send a woman into the cold palace, he had to give an explanation to convince the public, right?
"Xiao Huang, get ready, I'm going to have dinner with a Japanese customer in the evening." Zeng Shijie came out of the office with a copy of the text and confessed to Huang Ruirui.
Accompanying clients to dinner? The current Huang Ruirui obviously does not have this mind.
"People also specially greeted on the phone, Miss Huang is okay this time? You say, can I take you with me? Zeng Shijie asked Huang Ruirui with a smile.
This is actually an invitation from the customer to name names, if you don't even understand such a simple truth, Huang Ruirui has been in the business department for so long with Zeng Shijie for a while.
