When everyone finished worshipping the deceased, Zhuo Shiwen appeared in front of everyone in a black suit, which surprised everyone. Everyone looked at him with strange eyes, including Zhuo Meng, but he didn't care, he looked directly at the old man in the photo, approaching step by step, expressionless and fearless.
Zhuo Meng looked at the man who came over, his expression was nervous, every step he took seemed to be stepping on her heart, and her heart trembled. Jiang Chufan noticed her expression and held her shoulder, and he reassured her.
In front of the statue, he bowed, solemnly and solemnly. After bowing three times, he turned to look at Gong Hao, according to etiquette, he bowed to the orphan of the deceased, and after Gong Hao returned the salute, he retreated under the gaze of everyone.
"Wait......"
Just as he was about to leave, Zhuo Meng stopped him, almost as soon as she stopped him. With his back to her, he remained motionless, but silently waited for her to speak. After hesitating for a long time, Zhuo Meng mustered up the courage to say the words that were squeezed in his heart.
"Thank you......"
She said, shivering.
"Thank you for raising me."
Zhuo Meng finished speaking, but Zhuo Shiwen still looked indifferent and unmoved.
"Are you finished?"
He asked her, and she nodded in disbelief.
"Hmm."
Zhuo Shiwen didn't talk to her anymore, and left directly, as usual, he still didn't look at Zhuo Meng, disappointed, Zhuo Meng found that she would still have a loss, but this kind of loss, she was used to it.
……
After the funeral, Gong Hao returned home alone, looking at the empty house, he was inevitably sad. Sitting weakly on the sofa, he buried himself in the palm of his hand. His parents are gone, his wife is gone, and he is the same orphan he used to be with nothing, and it's good, it's really good, it's really good, no worries, and he's alone...... However, why is he so sad, so sad that he is about to suffocate.
"Smack!"
It was the sound of the door opening, and his heart jumped out of anticipation, and he looked up, and a small leap of joy was fixed on his face when he saw the person.
"Lolo?"
Seeing Gong Hao's expression, it was difficult for Shi Luoluo not to feel disappointed, and she sat on the sofa facing him, and she made no secret of her complaints.
"You're disappointed when you see it's me, aren't you?"
"Not ......"
was told her emotions nakedly, and Gong Hao was a little flustered and incoherent.
"I just didn't expect you to come to me."
"That's not the same......"
She casually lay on the sofa, she had known Gong Hao for a long time, and she didn't have to hide her rudeness in front of him.
"You don't want to see me at all."
"Not ......"
Gong Hao was even more panicked, wanting to explain but finding that his mind was empty, and he didn't know what to say. Seeing his panicked look, Shi Luoluo was slightly relieved, and asked him to ignore her again, she had to give him some color to see.
"Alright, alright, I'm not going to tease you."
Hearing Shi Luoluo say this, Gong Hao breathed a sigh of relief and glared at her dotingly, which was considered a punishment for her, but Shi Luoluo did not accept his tolerance, and made a grimace at him.
"But your expression just now made me too sad, if it weren't for the fact that you would be hurt and do something stupid when you were alone at home, I wouldn't have bothered to come to you to ask for myself."
Her half-joking, half-serious words in Gong Hao's ears touched him very much, at such a moment, it is also a blessing to have a bosom friend who cares about you so much.
"Hey, there's no water, I'm dying of thirst all the way here."
Shi Luoluo interrupted Gong Hao's touch, she was most afraid that others would say something sensual, so she had to quickly ask him to stop when he was about to speak.
"Yes."
She said she wanted to drink water, and he hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen to prepare it for her.
"Is the juice good?"
"It doesn't matter, if you can drink it."
Gong Hao smiled, took out the juice from the refrigerator, took the cup, and he poured it carefully.
"And fruit."
Shi Luoluo, who was lying on the sofa, instructed Gong Hao in the kitchen inch by inch, but Gong Hao didn't care about her, and smiled at her, and obediently followed her instructions to prepare fruit for her.
put away the playfulness, Shi Luoluo looked at Gong Hao, who was busy for him in the kitchen, and his heart was gradually clouded with a layer of haze.
"Gong Hao ......"
Unaware, she called out to him.
"Huh?"
Gong Hao glanced up at her, not noticing her abnormality, he continued to pick up the fruit in his hand.
"What's wrong?"
His tone was like coaxing a child, and when Schloro heard this, anger rose in his heart.
"Let's get married."
Gong Hao stopped what he was doing and looked at Shi Luoluo, who he thought she was joking. Shrollo looked him straight in the eye and repeated to him again with a determined expression.
"We ...... Let's get married. ”
……
After finishing his own business, when Jiang Chufan returned to the room, he heard Zhuo Meng talking on the phone again.
"Is he okay?"
'He', don't think about it, that person should be Gong Hao, she went home after the funeral, and she didn't say goodbye to Gong Hao, she would still be worried about him. Thinking about it, she was afraid that he would call behind his back, turned around, Jiang Chufan left temporarily, she was calling to inquire about Gong Hao's situation now because she didn't want him to know, she didn't want him to know, then he didn't know, as long as she didn't want him to know, he couldn't hear or see.
"Fortunately, he can still make it through."
Shi Luoluo reported Gong Hao's condition to Zhuo Meng on the other end of the phone, holding a pillow and nesting in the sofa, she looked very tired.
"You...... Why don't you comfort him to your face, if you appear, it will be thousands of times better than me comforting him. ”
Zhuo Meng was silent on the other end, looking at the dim light outside the window, she fell into deep thought.
"Zhuo Meng......
She was silent on the other end for too long, and Schlolo thought the phone was disconnected, and whispered tentatively.
"I'm going to see him...... Is it really good? ”
Zhuo Meng opened his mouth faintly, and asked her rhetorically, as if he was asking himself, Shi Luoluo began to be silent, this question, she didn't know the answer. She didn't know, but Zhuo Meng knew it.
"I'm a wound on his body now, I'm away from him, the wound will slowly scar over time, even if it can't disappear, it won't let him hurt all the time, if I get close, the wound will crack and worsen, he will hurt more, I don't see him, I don't want him to hurt more."
"Then aren't you afraid that he will be masochistic, he has always been brainless."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have always liked someone with all his heart.
"No...... Isn't there still you by his side, you won't let him have anything to do. ”
Shalo pursed her lips at that end, and forced the emotions that were churning in her heart, and she wondered if she should tell her about the evening.
"Zhuo Meng......
"What's wrong?"
"I proposed to him......"
She said, her tone mixed with infinite desolation. Zhuo Meng was stunned, her mind was blank, she couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad.
