Chapter 107: The True Heart of Dreams (3)
If you have to know what I want, then good, I tell you, I don't want anything but your sincerity. ββHard to blameββ
Wu Zitong has never been so nervous, facing Lin Yan's parents who were sitting opposite, trembling nervously, listening to the second elder caring about Lin Yan's career, he could only pull the vegetables in the bowl to suppress the shock.
After eating the whole meal, Lin Yan didn't say a few words, only the woman who claimed to be Lin Yan's mother chattered, asking this and that, Lin Yan's father didn't say a word since Lin Yan entered the door, as if the person sitting next to him was not his own son, but a stranger who didn't know him.
"Xiao Yan, when are you going to get married? Your dad and I flew here to attend your wedding! β
The woman asked curiously, her eyes full of expectation.
This question almost made Wu Zitong squirt out the soup he had just drunk, no, he still wants to get married, why is it so difficult to act in a scene!
"Well, don't worry, the two of us are going to travel for the wedding!" Lin Yan deliberately gave Wu Zitong a look, and Wu Zitong immediately cooperated to cater to him.
"It's okay, but your father is also a person with status, and the banquet still has to be held, so you have to give Xiaotong's family an explanation!" The woman still clings to the wedding.
Wu Zitong hurriedly explained: "No need, Auntie, our family doesn't ask for this, I just want to travel with Lin Yan!" β
Seeing that Wu Zitong's eyes were full of stars when he spoke, Lin Yan "chuckled" in his heart, wondering if there would be such a day.
"Ah, that's it!" The woman nodded, glancing at the man next to her, as if she was a little disappointed.
In order to break this embarrassing situation, Lin Yan took the initiative to speak: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about me and Xiaotong!" β
Aunt? Wu Zitong was a little surprised, could it be that they were remarried families, and the woman that day was Lin Yan's biological mother.
"How can you let us not worry, you are in your twenties, you haven't started a family yet, and your father and I are still planning to drop and hug our grandson!"
Lin Yan was obviously a little impatient: "What is there to worry about, I have my own job and life here, it's better than staying by your side and doing things I don't like!" β
Things you don't like?! The atmosphere at the dining table froze suddenly, and Father Lin put down the chopsticks in his hand expressionlessly, "Stinky boy, if you don't learn to paint with me, you're better off than now, and you're working as an assistant to others in a low voice, like a pug, shame on me!" β
Lin Yan didn't show weakness, and took the case: "Then your old man can completely disown my son, I have no opinion!" β
"Okay, Lao Lin, don't talk about it, it's hard to reunite with the child, what are you doing!" The woman stood up to persuade her, and Wu Zitong also walked to Lin Yan's side in a daze and stroked his shoulder, wanting to stop the quarrel between the two.
Over the years, Lin Yan's father has been angry that his son did not inherit his father's business to become a painter, Lin Yan insisted on studying business administration, and stayed in Shanghai after graduating from graduate school, and the relationship between father and son has been very stiff, Lin Yan's father originally came here today to see a lot of paintings hanging on the wall, and wanted to forgive Lin Yan, but he didn't expect Lin Yan to sneer at each other, both of them are not good-tempered people, so neither of them wants to bow to each other.
Wu Zitong didn't expect that Lin Yan, who looked so optimistic and cheerful on weekdays, would have such an unknown past, and he didn't know how much he suffered in the city alone in those years, and now he finally broke into the hall but was still ridiculed by his father.
An indescribable feeling arose, and at this moment she just wanted to step forward and hug this pretending to be strong person tightly.
After Su Nuannian finally finished a big meal, he burped in disfigurement, glanced at Xu Xinli, who was staring at him intently, stood up indifferently, and took out a bank card from his wallet, "You take this card, which contains your salary and money to buy vegetables!"
Then he couldn't help but stuff it to Xu Xinli, who was still in the wandering spirit, and his mouth was still slowly recalling the meal prepared by the girl, it was really a long time since he had eaten a delicious meal, maybe his stomach had been completely conquered by Xu Xinli.
"By the way, what are you doing in front of my door in the morning?" Su Nuannuan still asked.
Xu Xinli nervously began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, "No...... It's nothing! β
There is something to say, but I still can't say it.
Seeing that Su Nuannian was about to open the door and leave, Xu Xinli suddenly turned around, closed his eyes and shouted loudly: "I will look down on you if you are like this, coward!" β
Su Nuannian, who had already walked to the door, stopped, listening to Xu Xinli's voice, his face was gloomy, and his thick eyebrows were twisted into a ball, this is the second person to call himself a coward, what did he Su Nuannian do wrong to make others look down on him like this.
Xu Xinli looked at the man's back, and stopped talking, I'm sorry, it's okay not to mention some things, but don't forget, you are my faith, if my faith is gone, then what is the use of my persistence?
"I'll tell you the truth, Su Nuannian, I have known you for a long time, but you came to my university as a senior, you are Professor Chen's proudest student, at that time I decided to drop out of school because of my family, it was your speech that made me really worship the profession of doctor, let me persist until graduation, let me become a doctor, if it was not for you back then, I am afraid there would be no I Xu Xinli today, but you are so disappointing, how many people will be sad you know?" In the end, Xu Xinli's emotions were a little excited, and he almost began to shout.
But even this failed to move Su Nuannian, the man just turned his back to her and whispered: "You just treat that Su Nuannian as dead, I still have something to do, go first." With that, he hurried away and closed the door.
Xu Xinli stopped the movements in his hand, watching the man leave step by step, his heart was worse than death, maybe he would really have to go his own way in the future!
It was you who gave me the memories of my youth, and now you have torn up all faith with your own hands.
Su Nuannian also somehow, his legs couldn't move as if they were filled with lead, and he stood outside Xu Xinli without saying a word, he knew that the distance between them would be forever separated by such a door, and no one would open it again.
"President, Jin Lin is already in our hands, and I will personally escort her back to China tomorrow." Gu Nanyun listened to the assistant's voice on the phone, nodded with satisfaction, and looked back at the gray city at the beginning of the lanterns, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
Ren Zi'an, you hurt the two most important women in my life, and I will definitely make you pay. In the blink of an eye, it was late autumn again, and he was still the same person as ever, if he hadn't paid attention to the date marked on the contract just now, he wouldn't have known that time had passed so quickly, and it would be his birthday soon.
I still remember the happy scene when I was a child, although my family conditions were not very good, my father was the royal driver of the business tycoon at that time, and he earned a high salary in the city, leaving him and his sister and mother to live together in the countryside.
Every time on his birthday, his mother would always cook longevity noodles for him, and he would add beef that would only be late during the New Year, and every time he would show off ruthlessly in front of his sister, but in the end he still gave his sister most of the beef.
Thinking about the days at that time, although it was hard, it was the happiest time, and later he was accepted as a righteous son by his father's boss, living in a cold villa under the fence, relying on intrigue all day long to consolidate his position, and he could never find the original feeling of happiness again.
He hasn't had a birthday in all these years because he's afraid to wake up in the middle of the night and still be alone.
Fang Mohan was still choosing gifts for Ren Zi'an in the shopping mall, and when she thought that she could finally stand next to Ren Zi'an as a genuine wife tomorrow, she was speechless with excitement, which was not only an affirmation of her identity, but also a proof of Ren Zi'an's feelings for them, a kind of protection.
Just when she was still dazzled by the dazzling array of goods in the mall, a phone call suddenly came in, she looked down and saw that it was Xu Xinli, who had not been in touch for a long time, and heard her crying on the phone, Fang Mohan went straight to Xu Xinli's home without saying a word.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xu Xinli, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, Fang Mohan was very distressed, hugged the sad Xu Xinli, comforted him carefully, and finally decided to stay overnight because he couldn't rest assured that Xu Xinli was in such a bad state.
"Okay, okay, there are so many men in the world, why are we hanging ourselves on a tree!" Fang Mohan made a cup of honey tea for her, brought it to her side, and looked at Xu Xinli's empty eyes, unable to listen to what he said, Fang Mohan decided to change the topic: "Hey, big beauty, if it was your favorite boy's birthday, what gift would you choose?" β
Xu Xinli finally shifted his mind and put forward his opinion seriously: "Of course, I want to send it more intentionally!" β
"So what's more thoughtful?" Fang Mohan asked curiously.
"I know a famous pottery shop, do you want to try it tomorrow?" The girl's eyes lit up, and the clouds in her heart were suddenly forgotten, and she began to introduce her experience of going to that pottery shop for Fang Mohan.
Fang Mohan thought about it himself, this was the second time she had given her a birthday gift, and she had to take it seriously.
I heard that Fang Mohan would not return to Nanyuan tonight, and Ren Zi'an returned to the villa in the eastern suburbs alone, and he really hadn't returned here for a long time.
The man was smoking cigarettes one by one in the dark, his fingertips were smoky, his eyes were thick, he suddenly thought of something, he approached the living room in the dark and found a box, the box was full of letters large and small, for so many years, he insisted on writing letters to the woman, but every time it was returned, he took out those letters, and suddenly a thought came to his heart, why don't you write a letter now, maybe there will be a reply!
So the man approached the study and began to write the letter word by word, each sentence took a long time, as if the other party was a friend he hadn't seen for many years, and he didn't want to greet him, but just wanted to express his apologies and thoughts over the years.
"Are you okay, ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, I don't know if you will still remember me, maybe I'm just a passerby in your life, I'm deeply sorry for the failure of the year, I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I have never forgotten you, every minute and every second of suffering abroad I will remember the agreement with you, if there is fate, I will continue to wait for you at which train station this Christmas, I hope you can appear."
