Chapter 1 / Past Events
"How can you fall asleep, my dear! It's Valentine's Day!"
Lin Zihan glanced at the TV screen that was flashing in a daze, and then looked at his girlfriend with a puffed bun face, and rubbed his sour eyes helplessly: "Yuanyuan, I was dragged by the manager to meet customers, you know those guys, they are all veterans in the wine field, and their drinking skills are simply at the level of ashes, and I am thankful that your husband and I can come back alive to accompany you." ”
He was really tired today, but his girlfriend had to drag him to watch a movie on Valentine's Day. Oh, by the way, this movie is the 2005 version of Pride and Prejudice, and it is the heroine of Pirates of the Caribbean who plays Elizabeth. In order to get the professional eighth-level certificate, Lin Zihan read a large number of original English books, and there was Jane? Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Lin Zihan also felt for the only villain in Wickham for a while, but he didn't expect his girlfriend to be also an arrogant and prejudiced fan, which was really a coincidence. Back then, Lin Zihan was most fortunate to have read these novels that seemed trivial to men, because when he pursued Gao Yuanyuan, he avoided the embarrassing situation of having nothing to say.
Although Lin Zihan likes the heroine Kayla in it very much? Knightley, but now he had only one thought in his head, and that was to lie down on the soft bed and get a good night's sleep, which was too tiring for a while.
Gao Yuanyuan pursed her lips a little unhappily: "Lin Zihan! Look at my best friend's boyfriend, it's not the law to create a romantic atmosphere and make their girlfriend happy. You're good, you go out all day and always come back so late. I've never asked too much of you, I just want you to spend Valentine's Day with me, can't you even meet this little request?" The more Gao Yuanyuan spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and she sobbed quietly.
Lin Zihan silently pulled out a tissue and handed it to his girlfriend, and he didn't know how to comfort her, so he thought about it for a long time before he said quietly: "Yuanyuan, I know I don't spend much time with you, I'm a bastard, I admit it." However, I don't want to give you a shabby wedding when I get married, I don't want to hurt a good school after our children are born, I don't want to watch your smooth hands get rough because of housework. I just want to give you a good life!"
The delicate body in her arms trembled when she heard Lin Zihan's words: "Do people have to live in material things to be happy?" I don't want to go in and out with luxury cars, I don't need to be like a peacock with famous brands hanging everywhere, and I don't need to be alone in a grand house! Lin Zihan, when I promised to be with you, I didn't fantasize about these empty substances, do you understand?"
Lin Zihan listened to his girlfriend's words, a wry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, to be honest, he was lucky to be able to meet Yuanyuan and get her favor, she is not that kind of material girl. However, Gao Yuanyuan came from a wealthy family, and he was a child from the northern countryside, who had to leave the isolated village after ten years of hard study before he could have the opportunity to take root in the city. Gao Yuanyuan has never experienced the embarrassment of eating only one vegetarian dish at each meal, nor has she experienced the bus that is so crowded in the early morning that she can't even stretch her hands and feet, and she will never know how many young people just want to buy a house and drain the savings of the elderly in the family! They are people of two worlds! Sometimes, Lin Zihan was very scared, afraid that one day Gao Yuanyuan would leave her and return to her original circle. So he worked frantically, seizing every opportunity to climb up, and only such busyness could dispel the worries in his heart.
Gao Yuanyuan lowered her long eyelashes and whispered: "Zihan, I told you a long time ago, the door of my father's company will always be open for you, you are full of talent and ambition, I believe that you can get greater development in my father's company, why do you have to suffer yourself and me." I know you have self-esteem and pride, but as long as I'm sincere to you, isn't that enough? ”
What Gao Yuanyuan didn't know was that her kind words were like a sharp dagger, stabbing into Lin Zihan's heart. Although he is penniless, he has his own reserve and pride. Thinking of Gao Yuanyuan's mother's contemptuous expression, as well as her brother-in-law's little white face who saw herself as a woman for food, Lin Zihan's mood couldn't calm down for a long time! He has the self-esteem of a man, although it is so insignificant, but it also deeply touches the most sensitive nerve in his heart!
"Go to work at your dad's company and be pointed at like a monkey by everyone? I admit that I am a poor boy from the countryside, but that doesn't mean you can trample my dignity under your feet! If you look at this movie, Darcy was born with a golden key in his mouth since he was a child, he has status, money, and family affection. Can he understand Wickham's cumin and social status without embarrassment? No, he won't! Just like you and me now, you will never understand what I have endured all these years, you will never know how much pressure I have put on with you, you will never know!" Speaking of this, Lin Zihan kept roaring and hysterical as if he wanted to express all the unhappiness that had accumulated in his heart for many years.
Tears slipped silently, and at this moment, Gao Yuanyuan's heart was full of bitterness. Lin Zihan, Lin Zihan, don't you know what I have suffered under the pressure of my family and friends and insisting on being with you? Are you the only one who bears the pressure of life, and I don't? Is it true that as a friend said, we two people from different walks of life will never really enter each other's hearts? Gao Yuanyuan's mind was in chaos, she just wanted to get out of here now and be quiet by herself.
Watching Gao Yuanyuan stumble out of the small rental house, Lin Zihan couldn't help but regret his recklessness just now. He slapped his head in annoyance, he was simply blindfolded just now, and only a man who has no ability will take out his anger on a woman when he goes home! Yuanyuan is such a good girl, he must not lose her! Lin Zihan grabbed the coat on the sofa and rushed out.
The light bulb in the corridor of the community happened to be broken, and nothing could be seen in the dark. Lin Zihan was afraid that Gao Yuanyuan would step on the empty steps and crooked her feet, so she hurriedly chased under the stairs: "Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan!" I didn't mean that, Yuanyuan......"
Lin Zihan, who was anxious, was in a hurry and accidentally stepped on the empty steps. With a "bump", Lin Zihan rolled to the foot of the stairs very unvividly, and the back of his head hit the cement floor heavily......
