Text: Chapter 5

In the following week, because a colleague took a marriage leave, she took two morning classes, so her life was much busier than usual. Fortunately, no matter how busy you are, it's just to teach some children to sing, play games, draw, and origami airplanes...... The nature of the work is still very easy. Then, on Monday morning, Wei Pengfei took Wei Chuchu's little hand and came to the "Ai'er Kindergarten". This was the first time Ling Shan had seen Wei Pengfei in the morning, wearing a white shirt, a brown-colored fur vest, and a pair of coffee-colored trousers, and a coffee-colored suede coat on his arm. Bathed in the golden sunlight, he strode in, looking energetic and energetic. Ling Shan greeted him with a new feeling, unconsciously with a look of surprise. He didn't smell of alcohol, he didn't have a bad temper that was irritable and irritable, it was as if he had been reborn and become a different person. And what about Chu Chu? Dressed neatly in a little red sweater, a red skirt, and a red fedora on her head, she raised her long eyelashes, shining with a pair of flexible eyes, and stood there pretty, like the "Little Red Riding Hood" painted in a fairy tale.

"I've got Ah Xiang back," Wei Pengfei stood in the sunlight of the campus, looking at her with a smile of submission and obedience, as well as a hint of flattery. "Send Chu Chu to you again, you see, I completely listened to you." "You should be listening, aren't you?" Ling Shan asked with a smile, raising her eyelashes, the sun shining in her eyes. "I'll pack the ticket, and we'll take good care of your daughter." "Don't say 'we,'" he said bluntly, his eyes fixed on her. "I only trust you, because you're here, I sent her!"

"You should trust the ...... education"

"Don't talk to me about education!" He began to "reveal his true form" again, interrupted her recklessly, and he quickly said: "Don't talk to me about such a big topic, I'm just a small person, and I'm most afraid of big problems!" ”

She looked at him in amazement. "What a contradiction you are! You yourself are highly educated......"

"Also a victim of higher education!" His cold interface.

"I heard that you are the director of the public works department of a large factory, and you are responsible for the production of the entire factory." "Yes, how?" "If you don't study, how can you be the Director of Public Works?"

"What's wrong with not being the Director of Works?" He stared at her and asked, "It's great that you are a little poorer, and your economic life is a little worse, let me tell you, in this world, there are many people who are not the director of public works, but live happier and more fulfilling than me!" ”

"Do you attribute your unhappiness to being educated?" Ling Shan looked at him with a smile. "You know what is wrong with humanity? Humans are the most susceptible animals to shirk responsibility and dissatisfaction with the status quo! "Hah!" Wei Pengfei chuckled, his eyes shining at her. "If it weren't for the fact that I knew you, I would have seen you as a high-pitched person! The problem of education, the problem of humanity...... What do you want to do? Is the world worried? "You're wrong." She looked at him frankly, "I have never had any worries about the world, I just face my own problems, I don't make excuses, I don't blame fate, and I don't run away from ......"

"Are you cursing around the corner?"

"Nope." She whispered sincerely. "I only hope β€” I hope you can be happy with the world! There are people in this world who are happier than you, and there are people who are more unhappy than you...... You're going to say I'm singing on a high note again, you ......" She looked up at him, and her eyes were gentle, serene, and sincere. "Forget about those unpleasantness, okay? You have more things than you lose, you know? ”

He shook, shook under her earnest gaze, shook under her soft words. He was about to say something, but she had already taken Chu Chu's hand and said with a smile, "Have you completed the admission procedures for her?" ”

"Yes." "Well, I'm going to take her to class. Chu Chu, say goodbye to Dad! She looked back at him and waved at him. The class bell rang, and Chu Chu also turned around and waved at him. He stood there stunned, watching them walk into the classroom hand in hand, until they were both out of sight, and he was still there. Standing in the warm autumn sun. After a while, he turned around, and subconsciously looked up at the sky, the sky was dazzlingly blue, and the white clouds were shining in the sunlight, and he suddenly felt full of joy, full of yang pi and full of some indescribable happiness. He strode towards the outside of the school, around, there was a sweet fragrance around his nose, he looked over, only to find that there was a osmanthus planted there, this is the season of osmanthus fragrance, the unique fragrance of osmanthus permeated the air, intoxicating. He walked over, stretched out his hand to pick a handful of osmanthus flowers, and in his ears, the children's joyful singing began to come from the classroom:

"I'm not afraid of the white waves, hold the helm and row forward, cast the net and go to the fish's house, catch a big fish and laugh haha, ouch yo oh ouch,

Ouch babble yo oh ouch ......"

With a new and moving emotion, he listened to the children's singing. Only then did I realize that for a long time, there was no singing, no sunshine and even no fragrance of flowers in his life. Holding the osmanthus in his hand, he walked out of the campus, stepped into his car, and drove towards the factory, along the way, the fragrance of the osmanthus always came around his nose. The car drove onto the highway, the factory was in Zhongli, he had to drive for an hour to work every day, and then drive another hour to get off work. I can't fully understand what I feel comfortable with. Ling Shan's life this day was no different from usual. Wei Chuchu was surprisingly well-behaved on the first day of class. No fighting, no trouble, no biting...... She just looked at everything with a new eye. She was a little withdrawn, unwilling to approach her classmates, and after class, she was next to Lingshan like a small shadow. She can't write names, answer intelligence tests, sing any nursery rhymes, or fold gadgets, so she looks rather clumsy. Ling Shan knew that this was not an overnight thing. As long as this child is obedient, he will always learn slowly, and she is not in a hurry.

Chu Chu read the morning class, and at noon, she was picked up by Ah Xiang. At dusk, Ling Shan got out of class, and Shao Zhuosheng was already waiting at the school gate.

"Lingshan, let's go to dinner together, it's cold, I'll invite you to eat hairy belly hot pot!"

"I have a lot of things to do...... Ling Shan wanted to refuse.

"How come you always have so many things?" Shao Zhuosheng said, looking thoughtful. "Are those things going to get in the way of your eating?"

"Yes, it will get in the way." She said seriously.

"So," Shao Zhuosheng said with a good temper, very patient, and very graceful, "I won't delay you, what about tomorrow?" "Tomorrow too!" "What about the day after tomorrow?" "The day after tomorrow will happen." "That'...... So," Shao Zhuosheng stammered. "You...... What the hell are you ...... Was it okay that day? Seeing that he was loyal and funny, Ling Shan couldn't help laughing, and while laughing, he raised his head freely, and said:

"Alright! Let's go eat hairy belly hot pot! Anyway...... It's pure eating! ”

The three words pure eating are derived from "pure eating tea", which is a term between the Lingshan sisters, pure eating tea is not necessarily "pure eating tea", pure eating represents simple eating, which means that there is no other "meaning". However, Shao Zhuosheng was originally a "young tendon", as long as Ling Shan was willing to eat with him, he didn't care whether she was meaningful or not, he was already happy to dance with his hands and feet.

Ling Shan and Shao Zhuosheng went to dinner, and the two took a walk on the street, visited the bookstore, bought several books, and when they went home, it was almost ten o'clock. Shao Zhuosheng walked around as usual and sent Lingshan to the door of the building, and suddenly, this "little root tendon" said in his heart:

"Ling Shan, are we going to spend our lives like this?"

"What do you mean?" Ling Shan pretended to be confused, and her face was uncertain.

"It's not interesting," Shao Zhuosheng hurriedly said, "I'm just telling you, I'm very patient, and I'll spend it, no matter how many years it takes!" ”

Shao Zhuosheng left, but Ling Shan stood at the gate and was stunned for a long time. It seems that "pure eating" can no longer be accepted, this nerd has already admitted the truth, if he continues to date, I am afraid he will not be able to get rid of him. Instead of hurting him in the future, it is better to cut the mess as soon as possible. She thought, walking slowly into the building.

Suddenly, a wisp of cigarette smoke came around her nose, and a tall figure was covered in front of her, she was startled, raised her head, Wei Pengfei was smoking a cigarette, looking at her quietly. "Oh, it's you!" She said, "What are you doing?" ”

"Take a walk and look at the moon!" He said.

"It's very relaxing!" She smiled and ran up the stairs.

He stopped her, his eyes resting on her face.

"In Wai Sungai," he said, "there is a restaurant on the edge of the creek where you can enjoy the moon and eat barbecued meat, and you will go and sit with me every morning?" "Hah!" She smiled. "I just finished eating hairy belly hot pot with someone, and you invited me to eat barbecue again, and I became a rice bucket." His eyes immediately darkened.

"I'm sorry," he whispered, "I'm looking for a nail to touch!" ”

She stood at the top of the stairs and looked at him for two seconds.

"Do you have a car?" She asked knowingly. "Yes." "Or, we can go for a river cruise." She whispered.

His eyes were shining. "Let's go!" He said that the new feeling of the morning came to his bosom again, it was night, and he still felt bright and happy without the sun. They walked to the parking lot, got into the car, and he drove straight out. She suddenly looked at him a little strangely, and she said, "Do you walk in the garden every night to watch the moon?" ”

"No, only tonight." He said frankly.

"Why?" He bit his lip and was silent for a moment, and the car drove in the direction of Mie, crossed the Zhongxing Bridge, and went straight to the highway. He extinguished the cigarette butt and looked back at her, two small clusters of strange flames flashing in his eyes.

"I visited you at your house tonight."

"Oh?" Her eyes widened in surprise.

"Your brother told me that you were hanging out with a boy named Broomstar. Your parents talked to me for a while, your sister is very elegant, your family-

It's really a warm and happy family. I came out of your house, and somehow I couldn't go back to my own house. So, I went for a walk in the garden. I thought, maybe I could see that broomstar. ”

She stared at him. "Did you see that?" "Yes." "What do you think?" "Not worthy of you!" "Why?" He was silent. His hands were steady on the steering wheel, his eyes were looking straight ahead, his face was a little nervous, a little pale, and his breathing was heavy and rapid. He seemed to be thinking of something, as if he was caught in some kind of thought, and his eyes were deep and dark and unfathomable. Ling Shan turned her head and looked out the window at the road speeding backwards and the dark wilderness by the highway. Gradually, a feeling of panic came over her, and she said in a little panic:

"Where are you taking me?" "Go to Xulun." "Xulun? What is that place? ”

"Xulun Forging & Precision Foundry."

"I don't understand." She frowned.

"It's where I work." "Do you have that factory?" "Yes." "Why are you taking me to your factory?"

"I don't know. I'm working overtime tonight, and I'd like to take you to see it, orβ€”

Able to help you get to know me. Her heart skipped a beat.

"Iβ€”I don't want to know you." Her voice was weak and weak.

The car squeaked, braked suddenly, and stopped on the side of the road, she was startled, her body shook, and she almost hit the safety board in front of her. She gasped and glared at him, his face pale under the streetlight, and his eyes leaping with the gloomy light that had flashed in his eyes when she first saw him.

"What are you doing?" She asked. "Find a place to make a U-turn." "What's wrong?" She gritted her teeth. "Didn't you say you were going to your factory?"

"I'm not going." He shook his head. "I found out I was boring and stupid, and I was a- fool!" She turned her head and looked at him deeply.

"You're not a fool," she whispered, her voice like the soft song of an autumn worm, like the murmur of the night wind. "You're too sensitive, you're too vulnerable, you have the strongest appearance, the most fragile feelings. Your outward appearance is like an eggshell, which will break when you knock it, but your heart is the weakest and weakest. He glared at her fiercely. Don't jump to conclusions! Don't think you're smart! He growled.

"I don't make a decision! I don't think I'm smart," she said faintly, "please don't yell at me, you've been yelling at me since we met, and I find that I'm a little afraid of you!" Her eyelashes drooped, and when she raised them again, her eyes flashed with tears, and her voice was slightly choked: "I have never met someone like you, you are so vicious, so domineering, so gloomy, so easy to get angry, I don't know why I want to accommodate you, but, I ...... I...... I've been accommodating you! And you still don't appreciate it! I ......" she lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry, I'...... I'm out of shape......" she sniffed. "Please send me home. I don't know what I'm talking about. ”

He held up her chin with his hand, under the street lamp, her face was as red as drunk, her eyes were full of tears, the dense two rows of long eyelashes, passively raised upward, two shining teardrops, embellished on the eyelashes, twinkling like stars in the sky, her eyes were soft, and her eyes were like the moon and water like a clear pool. Her lips were rosy and beautiful, and they fluttered slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say anything. He stared at her, not for a moment, and then, his head bowed, his lips touching her cold, soft lips. Suddenly, there was a burst of headlights from behind, a horn honked, and then, with a "whew", a truck flew past them. The sudden light flashed like lightning, Ling Shan was startled, hurriedly sat upright, as if suddenly waking up from a dream, she panicked and said, "You can't stop arbitrarily on the highway!" Turn around, I'm going back. He reached for her hand, and she pulled it away.

"Let's go back!" She said again. He looked at her, the opportunity had been lost, and she suddenly looked like an inviolable saint, looking out the window, and she was sitting precariously without squinting. What he wanted to say, what he wanted to explain. However, there were many colorful shadows in front of his eyes, and these colorful shadows were like close-ups of the transformation in the movie, overlapping and pounced on him. Among these shadows is Chu Chu, and there is Chu Chu's mother...... They pounced on him, on him...... Like a sharp blade, it suddenly slashed through his heart one after another, he clenched his teeth in pain, and cold sweat almost broke out on his forehead.

He stopped talking, didn't even turn his head to look at her, started the car, he found a place to make a U-turn, turned around, and he drove towards Taipei.

Along the way, both of them became very silent, both distracted and thoughtful. He didn't know what she was thinking, he didn't know what she thought of him, he didn't dare to ask, and he didn't want to ask. It's just a hard drive with a stuffy head. The night breeze blew in through the window, cooling his mind, waking up his will, and chilling his heart. He vaguely remembered her warm home, parents, siblings, and boyfriend...... Calamity? If that beautiful and gentle Shao Zhuosheng is not worthy of her, what does he use to match her? His heart was colder, colder, more astringent, more bitter...... And in this cold emotion, Chu Chu and her mother's faces were always floating in the night sky outside the window, looking at him coldly, looking at him faintly, as if to awaken his sleeping will, awaken a certain sadness at the bottom of his soul......

The car entered Taipei City and slid into a sea of lights. They were still silent, and as long as they were silent, neither of them was willing to speak first, and an awkward atmosphere permeated between the two. She glanced at him quietly, and was startled by the seriousness and indifference on his face, and she closed her mouth even more.

When she arrived at the Anju Building, she parked the car, and stepped out of the car without a word. After closing the car door, he followed her into the building, and went upstairs up the stairs, and they went up slowly, step by step, until they walked up to four floors. When it was time to break up, he finally made up his mind, and turned his head to face her, his eyes were filled with a certain embarrassing depression, and distressed, self-reproachful emotions, and his voice trembled slightly:

"I'm sorry, Miss Liu." She blushed and asked vaguely:

"I'm sorry what?" "I should have been self-aware, so reckless and presumptuous...... "You are so white and unflawed, like a swan," he said with difficulty, difficulty, and laborious speech. And Iβ€”a veritable toad, I'm ashamed of myself. She stared at him silently with her eyes wide open. As soon as the black and white, clear eyes were cast on his face, and there was an immediate "buzz" in his head, and the embarrassment and self-ashamedness seized him even more. He hurriedly retreated, his face turning pale and red. "Silly, isn't it?" He said sadly: "A broken pocket wants to hold a perfect pearl." ”

He opened the door and entered.

She leaned against the wall, and for a while, she just leaned there, silently, in a trance, quietly contemplating.
