Chapter 57: The Story of the Huangpu River (I)
A Toyota Prado, driving in the dark night, like a fairy drawing a beautiful arc. Ding Ziyi was lying on the back seat, sleeping with a beautiful face. Wu Ming drove quietly, looking at her sleeping posture through the rearview mirror from time to time. From the moment they met, he fell in love with her. It's a little bitter, but the road ahead is full of sweetness.
"Yes."
Ding Ziyi woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a wide back. The scenery outside the window is streamlined, like time, irretrievable.
"Wake up." Wu Ming said softly, "Don't move yet, go back and have a good rest." β
Ding Ziyi nodded and closed his eyes. She was knocked unconscious, but she did not recover, and was very weak at this time, so she fell asleep again.
When the car arrived at the gate of Fudan University, Wu Ming stopped the car and did not wake up Ding Ziyi, but just sat quietly, and found that Ding Ziyi seemed to be more beautiful at this time. Less cold, more peaceful.
Time passed slowly between his fingers, Wu Ming thought that the time was too short, but Ding Ziyi woke up in half an hour. Ding Ziyi was stunned when he saw Wu Ming's gaze. Hurriedly combing the ends of her messy hair, Ding Ziyi rarely showed the shyness of a little woman, and said softly: "Thank you." β
"Thank me for what?" Wu Ming said with a smile.
"You get the idea. When I was caught by them, I knew it wouldn't end well, but it ...... end."
"The unexpected ending?" Wu Ming said, "Can you tell you what you're looking for?" β
Ding Ziyi was silent, looking out the window in a daze. It was already two o'clock in the morning. People on campus fall asleep. The two people outside the school gate were silent, waiting.
Wu Ming didn't force her, and sighed: "Everyone has their own secrets, but maybe it will be better to say it." Is it? β
"I'll go back first." Ding Ziyi didn't answer, but opened the car door, got out of the car and walked towards the campus, just as he was about to reach the gate, his shoulder was grabbed by a big hand, his body stiffened slightly, and he turned around to see Wu Ming's pitiful eyes, don't look over.
"Tell me about it." Wu Ming said softly, "It's not good to hold it in my heart......"
"Let it go." Ding Ziyi's voice became extremely cold. Wu Ming did not do what he said. If it was yesterday, he might have let go, but now he found that under the cold appearance, Ding Ziyi actually endured a lot. He didn't want her to remain indifferent.
"Follow me." Wu Ming picked up Ding Ziyi and walked to the car.
"What are you doing?" Ding Ziyi said angrily, his body was forcibly pulled, and his strength could not be compared to Wu Ming.
Wu Ming pulled the other party into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and left. After Ding Ziyi got into the car, he didn't make a noise, but looked at Wu Ming's back coldly and didn't say a word.
Prado drove on Binjiang Avenue, the speed was incredible, constantly overtaking the vehicles in front of them, scaring those drivers pale, a Volkswagen car could not withstand the fright, parked the car on the side of the road, and the owner scolded.
Wu Ming ignored it and continued to move forward. Ding Ziyi looked at the rapid speed outside the window coldly, listening to the whistling sound of the traffic police car behind him, his face remained unchanged, but he felt that Wu Ming's driving skills were very good and stable.
On the banks of the Huangpu River.
Wu Ming pointed at Zhongnanhai and looked at the dark river like ink, Ding Ziyi next to him hugged his shoulders and stared at the night sky, from the side face, Ding Ziyi had a thrilling charm, a perfect pretty face arc, and naturally had an attraction. The skin is like coagulation, and the eyebrows have thousands of styles. On the red lips, give endless fantasies to men in the world.
"Give me a cigarette." Ding Ziyi said suddenly, seeing Wu Ming stunned in place, snatched the cigarette from his mouth, took a puff, coughed violently, and tears flowed out.
"Girls don't smoke, it's not good-looking." Wu Ming took Zhongnanhai and said softly, "You are a fairy in the sky, and you can't descend to mortal dust." β
Ding Ziyi stared at him and sneered, "I'm a fairy? Wu Ming, tell me, do you like me? β
Wu Ming didn't answer, but finished his cigarette and turned his back to Ding Ziyi, not that he didn't want to answer, but he didn't know how to answer.
"Don't you even dare admit that?" Ding Ziyi said.
Wu Ming shook his head and said, "You are wrong, it is because you like it, so I don't play boring games with you." Remember, what if you know I like you? β
"But you didn't even dare to admit it just now!" Ding Ziyi said stubbornly, "As a man, dare to act." Tell me, have you ever been hurt? β
"You don't deny it." Ding Ziyi continued, "Don't think I don't understand anything, just flowers in the greenhouse. People are warm and cold, and the inside of the big family is more terrifying than the outside. You know what kind of world I've lived in since I was three years old. Your eyes, full of possession and **. But do you know what I'm thinking? You keep saying that you like me, but you know that I refuse, why do you want to entangle. Isn't that great? You are self-righteous, arrogant, and deliberately humble and studious, but there is no difference between you and the children of the Ding family in your bones. Your eyes, your expressions, betray what you have done. Wu Ming, if I were you, I wouldn't have suppressed myself all the time and forced myself to do something I didn't know anything about. You are selfish and heartless in my eyes. β
Wu Ming looked at Ding Ziyi coldly, listening to her crazy evaluation, without denying it, without admitting it, just watching, as if from the other party's stubborn eyes, through her heart.
But Wu Ming suddenly felt that he was a failure. I can't even read a girl's thoughts. Ding Ziyi's words, listening to the thunder in the silence, shocked Wu Ming in disbelief. The girl in front of her seemed to be completely herself, or another self.
What have you done over the years? Leaving home at the age of ten, under the seemingly strong appearance, few people know that the lonely heart is hidden deep in the night.
"Why, do you think you saved me, but you are still being scolded and feel uncomfortable?" Ding Ziyi sneered.
Wu Ming didn't respond, and slowly pulled Ding Ziyi into his arms, his movements were very slow, very light, Ding Ziyi had every chance to escape, but she didn't, she was just stiffly held.
"I know you're sad." Wu Ming said softly, "In the future, I will be by your side." β
Ding Ziyi's brain was shocked, and he raised his head to look at the face close by, the plain but sunny face, he was silent for a long time, but tears slipped down.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Wu Ming said, "Go back to the car, it's cold outside." β
Ding Ziyi didn't agree, and said, "Why? β
Wu Ming glanced at the starry sky and sighed: "Women are really made of water, and they are used for pain. If I don't care about you, who else? Don't be angry yet, I know a lot about you from Chen Xuande's mouths tonight. I know that your mother is the third lady of the Ding family, and I also know Ding Shangwen and Qingfeng. You didn't say it, but I know you're all going for the same thing. That thing is a relic of your mother......"
"Why do you know?" Ding Ziyi bit her lip and said.
"Because I was on the boat. You know my strength, so let me go, right? Wu Ming said with a smile.
"You're not angry, I let you go to such a dangerous place?" Ding Ziyi asked again.
"Not only am I not angry, I'm happy. Because you trust me. Wu Ming hugged Ding Ziyi tighter and said, "Can you tell me about you now?" I'd love to know. β
"Why?" Ding Ziyi continued to ask.
"Because I want to get to know you, because I like you." Wu Ming smiled, "And you think I like you even more." β
Ding Ziyi continued to ask, "Answer me, have you ever been injured?" β
I don't know why the other party is still entangled in this question, Wu Ming replied truthfully: "Yes." β
"I want to hear it." Ding Ziyi affirmed.
"Well, when I was a freshman in high school, I fell in love with the school flower, and in order to pursue her, I wrote more than a thousand love letters, fought for her, and did a lot of things for her." Wu Ming sighed.
"And she ended up with you?" Ding Ziyi asked.
"Well," Wu Ming smiled bitterly, "I was very naΓ―ve at the time, thinking that the relationship between the two was very simple. Who knew that she had just been dumped by her boyfriend, and I was just a stand-in, and then her boyfriend asked her to go back, and she went back without saying a word. β
Wu Ming said it lightly, but the process must be full of sadness and helplessness.
"And then?"
"The man dumped her again." Wu Ming said indifferently, "She came back to me again." Only the next day, it was gone again. β
"How's that man?"
"If you mix the society, the result can be imagined." Wu Ming said lightly, "He keeps seducing and abandoning girls, just to show off his skills, and the school flower comes and goes as soon as he is called, what a skill." His family is rich. Everyone else was afraid of him. β
"I didn't want to deal with him, so I didn't touch him. But when I saw the crying girls one after another, I ......"
Ding Ziyi frowned and said, "You killed him?" β
"How so?" Wu Ming smiled and said, "I'm a good student, the kind with good grades." It was my brother who made him understand some of the truths of being a human being. One day, he suddenly knelt in front of me, confessed his mistake to me, broke a hand, and ruined his handsome face. The girl pleaded with me. β
"You're soft-hearted."
Wu Ming shook his head and said calmly: "When I saw the girl's eyes, I understood at that time. This girl and I will never come to fruition, and she will never like me. So I was relieved. β
"You're not relieved." Ding Ziyi said, "If you have been liberated, you won't care so much. β
Wu Ming smiled: "You don't understand me. Since you want me to understand you, you should know more about me. Doing what I say is my principle of life. Self-deception is not my style. Just like I like you, I dare to go. β
Before Ding Ziyi could answer, Wu Ming said again: "Now, after my story is finished, it's your turn." β
