[184] will not bow to you
A few days after handing over my dad's handwriting script to Amy, I received a strange phone call at home.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and I was already planning to go to bed, and my father was still busy answering questions from customers in the online store in the study, explaining to them the reasons why inflatable dolls are one hundred and one more important than girlfriend haode.
"Hello? This is the ...... Happy Valley love shop. ”
I skillfully reported my home, I thought it was another urgent customer's reminder call, so I was so looking forward to the early arrival of the inflatable doll?
Unexpectedly, there was silence on the other side for a long time, and Peng Thos's voice came:
"Lin, I hope you are mentally prepared......"
Huh? What are you calling me in the middle of the night? Prepare me mentally? Are you going to send a hundred faggets to blow up my? I didn't offend you! It's just that I didn't go to Obama in person last time, so I don't have to be so ruthless!
"Next will be a call from Ms. Ai Shuqiao from the United States, although it is unlikely, but I hope you can listen to her finish calmly."
Who? Who is Ai Shuqiao? Calling from the United States? Our home phone doesn't have international calls? Transfer? Is it the earthy way of putting two telephone receivers together, or is it more advanced? In short, as long as we don't charge our family for international calls, we can't afford it!
After a rustling of electricity, the voice of a woman on the other side was replaced, speaking at a speed that was neither fast nor slow, and everywhere exuded the maturity and confidence of an elite.
"Call your dad to answer the phone."
As an American elite, her opening remarks like a class teacher looking for parents are really unlikeable.
"My dad is busy with business! What can you tell me? And who the hell are you? ”
“…… Call your dad to answer the phone. ”
She repeated, anger faintly audible in her voice.
Huh? In the middle of the night, three watches disturbed our rest, and the anger was not small! Don't look at my dad just sitting in front of the computer and chatting with people, there are some repeat customers who recognize our online store because of my dad's patient explanation! The father who is an H master is very popular with customers! If you delay our business, let's drink the northwest wind!
"Dad can't get out of his body now, you can let me convey something. Moreover, since your call was forwarded by Penthos...... You're supposed to be Amy's side, right? If you're looking for me, you should be looking for me, my dad hasn't seen Amy at all! ”
"He's never seen the best...... "There was a hint of sarcasm in the woman's voice, "If you don't know who I am, I can tell you that I'm Amy's agent and her mother." ”
"Oh, it's Mama Ai! Disrespectful, disrespectful! ”
I have never had a good impression of Amy's mother, isn't she a tiger mother who forces her daughter to play the piano and violin, and doesn't even give her Coke and potato chips? And when you introduce yourself, you first say that you are an agent, and then you say that you are a mother, you don't need to highlight your professionalism here, right?
"So what is the matter with your father? Although I have been taken care of by your daughter a lot, it is not serious enough to need to find a parent, right? ”
There was silence for a moment, and I could hear her nasal voice as she sneered.
Ye Lin...... That's the name, right? I didn't expect you to be so poor-mouthed...... But it's a bit like when your dad was in school......"
What does this mean? Listening to this tone, Ai's mother seems to know her father before? I wonder if the two of them are still classmates! This shijie is also too small!
“…… In short, let your dad answer the phone, and just say that Ai Shuqiao is looking for him. ”
The vicissitudes of life in my words couldn't help but make me take it seriously, and I pushed open the door of my father's study and pointed to the extension on the computer desk.
"A woman named Ai Shuqiao is looking for you......"
I was stunned in the middle of my sentence, because the expression on my father's face could no longer be described as shock, but turned into a hodgepodge of fear, pain, sadness, and incomprehension.
He grabbed the phone receiver like a man in the water grasping for a life-saving straw.
I don't know what Ai Shuqiao told him, it should only be enough time for a greeting before Dad's tears flowed.
When he wasn't drunk, he rarely cried in front of me.
He spoke to the woman on the phone in a trembling tone: "Shuqiao, you ......"
Finally stopping the endless tears, my father asked with deep sadness: "All these years...... How are you doing? ”
The fear of the five thunderbolts gripped me, perhaps because of the expression on my father's face, or perhaps because the cursed name was gradually awakening in my childhood memories......
My legs are shaking, is it because of anger or because of some other emotion? I don't know, the only thing I did was go to the living room and pick up the receiver of the phone back and put it to my ear.
Tapping someone's phone is unethical, but this time, I feel like I have the right to do it.
My eyes swept around the room, and I couldn't calm down anyway, and I saw Xiaoqin's bugging cooker on top of the TV, which I forgot to put away after my routine news broadcast to her - but I was in no mood to do anything else at this time, and my whole body and mind were focused on the conversation between my father and Ai Shuqiao.
“…… yes, you and John later had a daughter? He didn't bully you in the United States, did he? ”
Is this John referring to the foreign teacher who NTR his father in college? Although I can only hear my father's voice, I can feel my father's heart dripping blood!
"Bullying me?" Ai Shuqiao sneered, "He has neither the courage nor the ability, I also seduced him first in China back then, although he used to be the sole heir of a large financial company, but now he has been completely hollowed out by me and has become a full-time housewife." ”
As my father's wife, I cheated on someone else, but I just said it lightly, and I didn't have any shame at all?
Dad's voice seemed to have suddenly aged ten years, "Shuqiao, you tell me, you must tell me...... Do you love him that much? Is it worth leaving me behind, and our son? ”
"Love?" Ai Shuqiao seemed to hear the most ridiculous words in the world, "When did I say I loved him?" When did I say I loved you? When you proposed to me, I clearly told you: I don't believe in aiqing, aiqing is nothing more than an unreliable chemical reaction between the sexes, which can start and stop at any time, and this is not subject to the personal will of man. ”
"I ...... I thought you were joking......"
"Ai Shuqiao doesn't joke with people! Don't forget, I only agreed to marry you after accepting this. I was interested in you at the time, but that interest didn't last long, and I soon found out that John was more interesting than you, as the heir to a large company, because of his idealism, he went to a small city in China to volunteer at his own expense...... At that time, his cheerful personality and handsome appearance made many female college students become nymphomaniac, but he adhered to the principle that teachers and students should not fall in love, and did not develop an inappropriate relationship with any girl......"
"I think this person's persistence is very interesting, so I seduced him to do even more unethical things as the same teacher......
It's hard to imagine what kind of pain my dad would feel in his heart when he listened to his wife talk about his extramarital affair like a show-off.
"The idealist is different from others, he regards my 'interest' in him as love, and he feels that he has tarnished the teaching profession and his own ideals, so after I gave birth to your child, he tried to take me with him and fled all the way back to the United States."
"Interesting guy, isn't it? He married me despite my father's objections, and after my father suffered a heart attack, he became the chairman of a large company...... The luxury of American high society, and the appearance of idealists who still stick to the bottom line despite being scattered, really made me new for a long time. ”
"But as I said, the disappearance of interest is not subject to man's personal will. After giving birth to a daughter for John and gradually seizing his power in the company, I became less and less interested in him, and the only thing I could satisfy now was poached eggs in the morning and a foot massage in the evening. ”
"As for my current interests, it has become the entertainment industry, it has become an agent company, and it has become my daughter, Amy's star journey."
Turns out the name Amy is more than just a transliteration? Ai Shuqiao treats her daughter as her own property, so even the Chinese name has to follow her surname? Although Aunt Ren and Xiaoqin's situation is similar, Aunt Ren was heartbroken by her husband, Amy's father John didn't offend you, right?
I can't believe I'm talking to John in my heart.
A large part of the reason why I like Bruce Lee is that I hope that one day, I can flatten foreigners like Brother Long, such as John, who abducted other people's wives.
"Uncle~Uncle" shouted, and using the magical Jeet Kune Do to beat John's hideous face into a ball of pork belly, which used to be a beautiful dream of my youth.
But I don't really want to do that now, and I suddenly feel that John and my dad are not fundamentally different, they are both poor people who are toyed with by Ashkjo between applause.
And this person who should be called a mother still wants to continue to play with his daughter, my sister.
Something in my heart is tightened.
I didn't seem to be able to hear some of the conversations clearly, and when I looked back, I heard my dad say:
“…… After all these years, you can still recognize my handwriting? ”
"It's one of your few strengths, isn't it? You first piqued my interest, and it also started with the beautiful font on your love letters. ”
“…… Sook Jo, you said your daughter...... How close you are to our son? ”
"Yes, although I had this worry for a moment when I asked Amy to come to Winter Mountain City with the crew, I didn't expect the nightmare to come true."
"Nightmare? Not really, right? Although Xiaolin is not particularly good, he is not a bad boy either......"
"That's all for the greetings!" Ai Shuqiao's tone suddenly became more serious and cold, "I didn't call to renew my old relationship with you!" All you need to know is that I don't want anyone outside of Jihua to interfere with Amy's stardom path, she'll do the right thing at the right time, and marry the right person I have designated in the future - she doesn't need a brother who pops up out of nowhere! ”
"So, please don't trouble me, move away from that city, the farther away the better, and it's better not to cross paths with us again."
Every word that Ai Shuqiao blurted out was pierced into my father's heart like a sharp poisonous needle, and I could feel it.
"In terms of money, I will compensate you, in addition to the settling-in fee, there is also a hush money to keep secrets, if you are not too greedy, that number should be able to satisfy you."
"5,000,000 dollars, in exchange for you moving to a place at least 4,000 kilometers away from Dongshan City, and make sure to keep your mouth shut about the whole thing, and not to tell the media, and not to come to us again, otherwise I won't rule out using the underworld people against you - remember that Ai Shuqiao is not joking."
I've never been so angry.
Even when the little bully pressed my face into the mud puddle and pinched my nose to make me drink the dirty water in the mud puddle, I was never so angry.
Without a trace of nostalgia turning away from our lives, and now because we have accidentally disturbed our own tranquility, we want to drive us away from this native city unreasonably?
Although I don't have many friends in this city, it is a city that I know and cherish, and I have many memories of.
Do you think money makes up for it? Do you think that as long as you have money, you can change other people's lives casually? Do you think your husband and son should be on their knees under your grace?
I looked into the earpiece, like a mad beast, and burst out a few words from between my teeth: "You should ...... The farther you roll, the better! ”
