"Smack!"

The brown striped coffee cup that Qiao Mosheng had originally held in his hand shook twice, and finally was knocked over in the sink of the washing cup, and after that, the broken porcelain pieces cut a cut in the pair of white and slender fingers that tried to pick them up.

"Mo Sheng? What was that? You okay? ”

The sound of a broken cup came to the other side of the phone, and the voice in the earpiece sounded a little worried,

Qiao Mosheng's thin lips moved, she lowered her eyes to look at the fragments of the sink and the shallow marks on her index finger that could not be found without looking closely, with the slight flipping and squeezing of her thumb, a small stream of Yin red flowed out of the mouth, dripping into the sink, mixed with the small traces of water that had been left in the sink, and soon, the blood fused with it, and then faded, and finally couldn't resist the tension and flowed into the hollow of the water.

"It's okay, just flip a glass."

The brown striped cup, the cup that Qiao Mosheng has used for five years, used to be a pair, as if a long time ago, two people had sat face to face at a small round table, with the same style and different color cups, holding the coffee brewed by Qiao Mosheng himself, basking in the warm sun, enjoying the warm afternoon,

Two years ago, when Qiao Mosheng left the house that carried many years of memories, he also put it in his suitcase, and after returning to his own city, he was still too stubborn to want to replace it.

"It didn't hurt, did it? Be careful......"

The person on the other end of the phone didn't notice the slightest mistake, and continued to care,

Qiao Mosheng increased the strength of his thumb slightly, and watched the wound that was about to stop the bleeding be pulled open again, and when the blood was about to drip down his fingertips again, Qiao Mosheng turned on the faucet and put the bleeding finger under the water stream to flush it.

"No, it's fine."

There was silence for a long time, except for the sound of water flowing on Qiao Mosheng's side and the sound of signal currents on the phone from time to time, the whole world seemed to be a little quiet and terrifying, Qiao Mosheng never felt that talking on the phone turned out to be such a hard thing,

"Mo Sheng... I hope you will come to my wedding......"

The other party seems to have thought twice before saying this sentence,

Look, people nowadays like to sprinkle salt on other people's wounds, but some people are like this, even if the pain is heartbreaking, they can endure it silently, isn't there a saying, some people are willing to fight, some people are willing to suffer.

All things and things in the world are relative, just like Qiao Mosheng at this moment, in the background of the sound of flowing water, she just kept her lips pursed and held the somewhat hot mobile phone, and did not have the courage and determination to hang up the phone, although she really didn't want to hear this,

The edges of the wound that had been washed by the water were a little white, Qiao Mosheng withdrew his hand, and the faucet was closed,

"I know what I did was too cruel to you," I didn't hear the response I should have, and the voice on the other end of the phone rang again, "But, I really hope that you will come out of the past, pick yourself up, and live your life well, after all, you are also very young, and you still have a long way to go, right?" Don't let me make your life gloomy for the rest of your life, and... If I can, I really hope to get your blessing as a friend. ”

Hehe......

If people are cheap, they really don't distinguish between each other, just like how many times you have tried every possible way to seek news about a person, but now when you really hear a few words about her, you suddenly want to plug your ears and cover the quilt and pretend that you don't know anything.

It's like a person who once ignored your bitter pleading and retention, resolutely pulled the luggage and cut you in two, but now he stabbed the unsuspecting heart again through the earpiece,

After a pause, Qiao Mosheng clipped the phone to his shoulder, turned around and pulled out two tissues, and carefully wiped the water stains on his hands.

"You think too much, I've found a new life and live well," the tissue in his hand was a little damp with water, became soft and collapsed, and became a ball after being squeezed twice, "Of course I'm willing to bless you, if you don't mind me taking her with you." ”

“……”

The person on the other side of the phone seemed to hear something unexpected, and was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, and after a short silence, the voice of the earpiece sounded a little strange.

"It's... Isn't she, she must be very good......"

"Well, she's excellent."

Qiao Mosheng put the phone back in his hand, while playing with the tissue in his hand, almost without thinking about it, blurted out,

“…… Can I meet her before the wedding? ”

The other party suddenly asked tentatively,

“……”

This time it was Qiao Mosheng's turn to speak, she originally just wanted to find an excuse to shirk, thinking that if she had a new life and a new partner by her side, the other party would not insist on asking her to go to the wedding, but she never expected that things would make her self-defeating,

"I don't know if she has time, she... Very busy. ”

Now that the words have been spoken, the way to round a lie is to cover it up with another lie, although she can directly refuse the other party, but Qiao Mosheng doesn't want to do that,

"It's okay, the time is up to you, just let me know when it's settled."

The other party resumed his initial tone, and he lost the depression just now.

"Well, I see, then I'll contact you then, like this first."

Qiao Mosheng was a little flustered and hung up the phone in a hurry.

locked the door of the store, Qiao Mosheng drove around, full of thoughts about where she was going to change a girlfriend out, although she also had a few friends around her who had a good relationship, but almost every one of them had been taken by herself to meet that person, that person knew her friends somewhat, to say that she and one of them had developed a relationship above friends, it was not convincing at all, if it was exposed by the other party, Qiao Mosheng would definitely be so embarrassed that she would never have the face to meet again,

Although the other party on the phone said that he would arrange his time, he couldn't solve any problems if he dragged on like this, and he blamed himself for making things up, where can I catch someone who can help me but not interfere too much with the problem.

Qiao Mosheng was a little anxious, his middle finger tapped the steering wheel lightly, and suddenly, a vague figure flashed in her mind, Qiao Mosheng was like grasping a life-saving straw, hit the steering wheel at the next intersection, turned around and hurriedly drove home,

"Please, you have to stay......"

Qiao Mosheng whispered to himself, the accelerator under his feet was stepped on harder,

After throwing off her shoes and even having time to change her slippers when she entered the door, she went straight to the bedroom and turned out the sticky note, Qiao Mosheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, she slumped on the edge of the bed and sat directly on the floor, hanging down in her hand, at the bottom of the sticky note, a string of unfamiliar numbers was written, Qiao Mosheng tilted his head and looked at the big exclamation mark on the top that was a little incongruous compared with the number, and somehow, he suddenly laughed......

But soon, the corners of the curved mouth gradually changed direction, becoming a kind of mocking arc,

Now, is it time to laugh......
