Chapter 348: Freedom, Peace, and Ease
I took the 1,000 yuan I borrowed from Su Mei, dragged a large bag and a small bag to the Yinshi restaurant, and when I arrived, Chen Qingyi was already seated and waved to me leisurely through the window.
I left my luggage at the front desk and walked upstairs with a grudge in my heart.
I sat down opposite Chen Qingyi, and was just about to complain, but Chen Qingyi preemptively said, "Zhang Yixi, your little aunt called me." ”
I looked at Chen Qingyi in amazement, waiting for her to continue.
Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, she just said that tomorrow is her birthday, and it happens to be another weekend, and she hopes we will go back." ”
I'm silent........ In fact, this time I have decided to confess to my parents what happened to me during this time.
"Zhang Yixi, do you need my help this time?"
I shook my head and said, "Forget it, I have to face it after all, no matter how bad it is, it won't get much worse anyway." ”
Chen Qingyi said with a serious face: "Zhang Yixi, don't always try to use your home as a haven, you are already an adult, what you need to do is to make your home safer, instead of bringing so many hidden dangers, blindly thinking about getting comfort and understanding from your family, which is unfair to them." ”
I reminisce about Chen Qingyi's words, I admit that what she said makes sense, if I tell my parents now that I sold my house and sold their life's work because of a failure in the business field, how would they feel, and if I told them that Chen Qingyi and I have been acting, we are not lovers working hard in the direction of marriage, what will they feel......... Predictably, this is bound to break them down, I'm already an independent adult, and what I'm going to do is protect my family, not hurt it.
"Will you continue to do me a favor?"
Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "As long as you are willing, I am still willing." ”
I looked at Chen Qingyi for a long time and asked this question repeatedly: "Why is it so good to me." ”
"Honestly?"
"Hmm."
Chen Qingyi nodded and said, "Women are all mothers, and you, Zhang Yixi, have always been the child who needs to be protected........ Your life is a mess, and if we don't care about you, it's hard for you to live your life. ”
If I would have not accepted Chen Qingyi's statement before, I don't think I'm the one who needs to be protected.
A person who dares to face himself is the bravest, so I didn't refute Chen Qingyi, at least from the perspective of all the experiences, what she said was right, but in the future, I promise that I will no longer be the Zhang Yixi who needs the protection of a woman, my life has set sail at this moment!!
........
After eating, Chen Qingyi didn't let me have a treat, she paid the bill before me, which made me a little embarrassed, it doesn't matter if I think about it, rich will help the world, compared to me, Chen Qingyi is also rich, I just gave her a chance to help the world.
In the afternoon, Chen Qingyi drove me to the small town, we didn't talk much along the way, after this experience, my life seems to have precipitated, and I prefer to use thinking instead of words.
After returning to the town, Chen Qingyi and I still continued this beautiful lie, but we also confessed the fact that we failed in business like our family, and my family was very worried, Chen Qingyi stood up again and swore to my family, "Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, no matter how cruel the reality is, our relationship is still as solid as a rock!" ”
Chen Qingyi's statement reassured the family, and they no longer urged me and Chen Qingyi to hurry up and prepare for marriage, but just let me hurry up and get out of the trough of life as soon as possible, so as to live up to Chen Qingyi's unwavering friendship.
........
One night, dawn came, I got up early, and after breakfast, I was ready to embark on the road to freedom.
It was another time to say goodbye, and Chen Qingyi sent me to the entrance of the highway, from where she will return to Nantong later.
Chen Qingyi turned off the car, and she seemed to be ready to chat with me for a while: "Zhang Yixi, what do you say is life?" ”
"Life is a show." I thought for a moment and replied.
"I think life is a dream!"
I smiled: "What's the difference, aren't they all the same hazy........"
Chen Qingyi shrugged her shoulders, responded with a smile to me, and suddenly remembered something and said to me, "Is there any smoke?" Give me a cigarette! ”
I fumbled a cigarette out of my pocket and handed it to her, took out a lighter and asked, "Do you smoke now?" ”
Chen Qingyi nodded, and I helped her light the cigarette and lit one myself.
Chen Qingyi took a leisurely puff, looked at the cigarette in his hand and said to me: "This is the first cigarette I smoked after I got out of the shadow of emotional frustration." ”
"Why smoke?"
"Smoke is enough to interpret a person's life, as you said, life is hazy, and smoke is also hazy...... We take happiness from cigarettes, and we deserve to reap harm, isn't this like the joy and sorrow of life? Chen Qingyi said slowly.
"You've got ........"
"But I'd rather this be the last cigarette in my life."
I looked at Chen Qingyi in confusion.
"Smoking a cigarette will experience a sorrow and joy, so often, people will be tired, many times, I would rather live a calmer life."
I nodded, maybe I should smoke less.
"Zhang Yixi, where will you go?"
"Far away."
"How far?"
I looked into the distance through the car window: "I go as far as my thoughts go!" ”
.......
On the road with no end in sight, the leaves are falling, I pull my suitcase, face the morning sun, and blow the autumn wind forward, at this moment I seem to have become a lonely but free traveler......
A white Buick Yinglang XT stopped in front of me, and Su Mei pressed the window and shouted to me, "Brother Yixi, get in the car...... Let's go to a free place together!! ”
I smiled and pulled the box and quickened my pace towards her car.
.......
"Meimei, is there a song by Karen Mok called "A World Without Walls"?"
"It seems that there is, I'll look for ......."
The song rings in my ears." Dissolve my idle blue like clouds, floating in the sky sheep clouds, let the past float by, leave me until the heavens and the earth fall off, nothing is left, wandering, I am like a river, everything passes, there is no fixed me, I am calm and free, and there is no wall, each of them is my tenderness, my heart is dense green, like a lake dripping through the grass, the tears of the grass float by, let everything float by, nothing until the heavens and the earth are healed, there is nothing left, I wander like a river, everything passes through, I am free and peaceful, I have no walls, I squander, every self wanders, I am like singing, and then singing and singing in the wind, I am not like me, I no longer have walls, I choose not to choose to flow to myself......”
In front of me is the sky and the earth is wide, and I am moving forward on the road of redemption...... "Shen Man, Anqi, Mo Han........ Zuo Lan! If you have the opportunity to meet in this life, you will definitely meet a precipitated, the most perfect Zhang Yixi!! ”
