People who truly love each other have no overnight feuds.

But Luo Jingjing cut off contact with Long Xiaoyu for three days in a row, Long Xiaoyu came to Luo's courtyard every day after work to find her, as long as she saw that it was Long Xiaoyu who knocked on the door from the screen of the video doorbell, she should not close the door. She saw Long Xiaoyu ringing the doorbell over and over again through the screen, saw him hovering in front of the door, saw him peeking in through the crack in the door, and saw him leave gloomily...... In Luo Jingjing's heart, there will be a sense of revenge spontaneously.

On the fourth night, Long Xiaoyu didn't come back. Luo Jingjing waited until twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and she didn't hear the doorbell. More than once, she turned on the screen of the video doorbell herself and looked out the door, which was empty. She was a little bored, her heart was stunned, and she couldn't sleep all night.

On the fifth day, Long Xiaoyu didn't come again.

On the weekend, Luo Jingjing went to the Yellow Crane Lake Villa to see her father, and when she was having lunch with her father, Long Xiaoyu suddenly came and brought her father the newspapers and some documents of the day. His father asked him if he had eaten, and he said no. My father said let's eat together. Long Xiaoyu said no, the driver was waiting outside. Father said you just sit down and eat, and let him wait. Long Xiaoyu glanced at Luo Jingjing on the table, Luo Jingjing immediately looked away, and at the same time as Long Xiaoyu sat down, she stood up and left the table and walked out of the restaurant.

Long Xiaoyu served the rice by himself, only half a bowl, and then lowered his head to eat. Luo Baochun's meal, the lunch of such a big boss, was simpler than he imagined, like the most ordinary life of an ordinary family. As soon as Luo Jingjing left, Luo Baochun stopped eating, got up and left the dining table, and sat on the sofa next to him to read documents and newspapers. Long Xiaoyu sat alone at the boss's table, he was really uncomfortable eating this meal, and it was easy to wait until Luo Baochun raised his head and spoke: "Xiaoyu, you eat quickly, take Jingjing back to the city after eating." Long Xiaoyu was relieved, put down the dishes and chopsticks, got up to wipe his mouth, and said loudly:

"I'm done."

Luo Baochun put down the newspaper, walked out of the restaurant, and didn't know which room to call his daughter. Long Xiaoyu walked out of the villa and got into the car, he sat in the car, watched Luo Baochun take his daughter out, stood at the door like a loving father and mother for a while, Luo Jingjing nodded and walked to the car. Long Xiaoyu got out of the car and helped Luo Jingjing open the back door, Luo Jingjing didn't even look at him, he opened the front door and went up. Long Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, so he had to sit in the back seat by himself. The car started moving, and there was no word all the way. No one had a word.

The car drove to the small courtyard of the Luo family, Luo Jingjing still didn't say a word, opened the door and got out of the car by herself, and walked into the house. Long Xiaoyu looked at her back, watched her take out the key, open the door, and see her look down to pick up something on the ground, he suddenly said to the driver: "I have something, you wait for me." After speaking, he opened the car door and went down, squeezed into the courtyard before Luo Jingjing closed the door, and then closed the courtyard door casually.

Luo Jingjing didn't expect him to follow, first startled, and then deliberately didn't look at him, and walked straight to the living room. Long Xiaoyu caught up with her and said, "I want to talk to you, Jingjing, can we talk?" ”

Luo Jingjing frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Long Xiaoyu said: "Let's talk about Siping, what you saw that day was Siping." ”

Luo Jingjing said, "Oh, your girlfriend, what are you talking to me about?" ”

Long Xiaoyu hurriedly denied: "She's not my girlfriend, she's not ......" but Luo Jingjing's direct gaze made his denial come to an abrupt end.

Luo Jingjing asked, "Isn't she?" ”

Long Xiaoyu lowered his head and whispered, "It used to be." ”

Luo Jingjing asked again: "Does she know that you always come here?" ”

Long Xiaoyu said, "I don't know. ”

Luo Jingjing said: "Oh, she, like me, is also kept in the dark by you. ”

Long Xiaoyu said: "She is different from you, she is in the dark, you don't." ”

Luo Jingjing said: "Why didn't I have it, I always thought you were the only one with me." ”

Long Xiaoyu said: "I am the only one with you, I am the only one with you." ”

Luo Jingjing said: "This should be what I said, you are not qualified to say it." ”

Long Xiaoyu said: "Siping and I are in the past, and our fate has long come to an end." ”

Luo Jingjing said coldly: "Is it because of me?" Is it because of me, your fate that has come to an end? ”

Long Xiaoyu didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it either, he didn't have the courage to admit that his fate with Siping ended up because he had different ideas, because Luo Jingjing was better than Siping, more beautiful than her, richer than her, more educated and tasteful than her...... He doesn't want to admit it, because this fact is not a fact! The truth was in his heart, and he knew in his heart that he was in love, and it was because he could not ignore, reject, and run away from this love that all this happened. He loves Luo Jingjing, even if she is not beautiful, has no money, and has no culture at all...... Even, he thought, even if she was disabled, even if she was missing an arm and a broken leg, or even a vegetative state, he loved her. He dared to swear that no matter what Luo Jingjing became, he would love her!

But did she believe it?

She didn't believe it! Long Xiaoyu saw the contempt and disdain on Luo Jingjing's face, and he was a little desperate. He called out to her, trying to get her feelings back for him, but to no avail. Luo Jingjing turned her face and opened the door of the living room, stepped into the threshold, and the door slammed shut.

Long Xiaoyu stood in the courtyard, and the courtyard was extremely silent. Bursts of ethereal laughter echoed in the silence, and the laughter and muttered whispers between him and Luo Jingjing rose one after another in the sky above this courtyard, in every friendly corner, making Long Xiaoyu nostalgic and giving him the illusion of falling asleep. When he suddenly realized that it was all true, the moment he jumped out of the hallucinations of the dream, those laughter and whispers also stopped abruptly, and it was chillingly fast. A year and a half later, when Long Xiaoyu told Han Ding about his feelings at that time, he said that in addition to his heartbreak, he also felt fear.

"Why? Why do you feel fear? Han Ding asked, "Are you worried that once Luo Jingjing doesn't love you, she will make you lose your future, or even lose this hard-won job, or are you just worried about losing love?" ”

Long Xiaoyu didn't answer immediately, he might need to recall the exact mood at the time, maybe he needed time to hesitate between the truth and the lie. He said: "It's because of Luo Jingjing, I'm afraid that I will really lose her." ”

"Afraid of losing her love for you?" Han Ding followed closely, "Is it just love?" ”

Long Xiaoyu nodded first, and then suddenly asked, "Do you know what has scared me the most since my father died?" ”

Han Ding shook his head: "What is it?" ”

Long Xiaoyu said: "It's no job, it's hunger." ”

Han Ding looked at him fixedly.

Long Xiaoyu asked again, "Do you know hunger?" ”

Han Ding shook his head.

Long Xiaoyu said: "Hunger, this is the most instinctive fear of any person. In the face of hunger, everything is secondary and cannot be compared with it. ”

Han Ding said: "Including love? If you fall in love with someone with all your heart, is it important to have a full stomach or love? ”

Long Xiaoyu paused, but Han Ding knew that he wasn't thinking, he knew that he had already come to a conclusion.

Long Xiaoyu opened his mouth and said, "When you are not hungry, love is important. ”

Han Ding asked, "Did you say this to Luo Jingjing?" When you loved each other, when you loved each other to death, when you loved each other so much that you could sacrifice everything and even your life for each other, did you say it to her? ”

Long Xiaoyu shook his head: "No." She'd be angry at saying this to someone who had never been hungry. One can give one's life for love, but one cannot fight hunger. ”

"You're saying you're a starving man, aren't you?" Han Ding asked.

"Yes." Long Xiaoyu nodded, "When I was young, there was a time when my dad couldn't find a performance, and I couldn't eat enough at that time. The feeling of not being able to eat for a long time is really uncomfortable, it can make you think about nothing else every day, just want to go where to get something to eat. After my dad died, I dropped out of school and didn't have a job, so even if I could get up in the morning and eat a bowl of rice, I didn't know where to go for lunch. I didn't find a job for a long time after I arrived in Pingling, and after the money was spent, I had to go to Daxiong, who could support Siping, but it was impossible to support me, so he asked me to take Siping to the side of the road to extort those passing cars, and I went. Maybe it's fate, maybe God doesn't let me do too much evil, so the first car I met was Luo Jingjing's ......"

Long Xiaoyu's words left a different taste in Han Ding's heart, perhaps because Long Xiaoyu's original image in his heart was close to a perfect love supremacist, a love saint who dedicated himself to love. But from this period of Long Xiaoyu's life analysis, Han Ding saw a very realistic and typical biological instinct of Long Xiaoyu. It's really an inexplicable feeling, like touching something and suddenly discovering that it's not as perfect as it was when it's unreal.

Maybe Long Xiaoyu's words are indeed a truth, no one can change their own experience, and no one can remove the imprint left on them by history. There is a psychological difference between those who have gone hungry and those who have not been hungry throughout their lives. They are in love, they work, they socialize, they live the same, they can seem the same, but when an opportunity suddenly presents itself, when a disaster suddenly strikes, when an important crossroads suddenly cross the road, will they react the same? Will the choice be the same? Will the performance be the same? Those who have been hungry since childhood and those who have been fed all day long since childhood, are they on the same path or are they in the opposite direction? Long Xiaoyu and Luo Jingjing, will they be the same?

And Zhu Siping, will it be the same as them?

When Siping finally knew that Long Xiaoyu's indifference and evasiveness to her was not because of any career needs, but because of a woman; When she finally knows that this woman is none other than the precious daughter of the big boss of a pharmaceutical company; What would she think when she then thought that everything Long Xiaoyu got was not due to his efforts and diligence, but to this woman's gift? Will she be envious or jealous? Will it grieve or hate? Will you leave disappointed or come to the door and make a fuss? Will you quarrel for a while and then cut it in two, or fight with all your strength and are unwilling to lose, or hold a grudge and design revenge, or are you neither righteous nor benevolent, or will I not succeed and will not let you succeed? Maybe these were all expected by Long Xiaoyu, but Zhu Siping's final choice was completely unexpected by him.

Zhu Siping found Long Xiaoyu's office almost the next day. She swaggered into Luo Baochun's office before the pharmaceutical company got off work, scaring Long Xiaoyu into a cold sweat. Fortunately, Luo Baochun was not there. Director Wang and the company's personnel manager happened to come in to look for documents, and saw a young girl walking in in a big way and calling Long Xiaoyu by her name, they were stunned for a moment, but fortunately Long Xiaoyu explained quickly: "Ah, director, this is my cousin, who came to deliver something to me." Fortunately, Zhu Siping just looked at them coldly and didn't say a word. Neither Director Wang nor the personnel manager noticed anything particularly unusual, and they found the material they were looking for on Luo Baochun's desk and left. Director Wang just reminded Long Xiaoyu separately afterwards: The company has regulations, relatives and friends are not allowed to bring it to the office during working hours, and you are the secretary of the chairman and you must set an example.

After Director Wang and the personnel manager took the documents and went out, Long Xiaoyu found that his lips were numb and his limbs were cold. He pulled Siping in a panic, coaxed her out of the office, went downstairs, walked out of the company gate, and he took her to the moat not far from the company. Far from the main road, it is deserted, and the red sunset pours on the shiny river, making the whole river seem to be filled with lava, and people's eyes feel like they are burning.

On the shore of this "lava", every result that Long Xiaoyu could predict appeared, Siping first cried sadly, saying that she would automatically withdraw from this love vortex, go back to her hometown in Shaoxing alone, and return her freedom to Long Xiaoyu. But when Long Xiaoyu was full of guilt and good words, she began to speak viciously to each other again, full of vicious curses and hatred towards Luo Jingjing, she threw herself into Long Xiaoyu's arms and cried and scolded, vowing never to give him up. Long Xiaoyu had to express his attitude in very clear language: "Now that fate has come to an end, it is better to say it and disperse, and it is easy to say that it is easy to disperse, and you can still leave each other's affection." This is the second time that Long Xiaoyu has officially proposed to break up, Siping started crying again, and Long Xiaoyu no longer persuaded her to let her cry. This time Siping cried very shortly, the crying soon stopped, and then she swore a poisonous oath, she said to Long Xiaoyu that she decided to die, and she would never let the person who hurt her feel better before she died, if you don't believe it, just wait and see! I'm going to be ruthless and do anything! Siping flickered and flickered, half crazy and half crazy, and after a few rounds, Long Xiaoyu's front was easily broken, and he began to beg Zhu Siping, he told her that he was really in love with Luo Jingjing, and he could sacrifice everything for her. He begged Zhu Siping to give him freedom in his past affection, so that he could get this hard-won happiness, which was given by God and he could not lose it.

Zhu Siping suddenly calmed down after expressing sadness, despair, hatred, and weak crying and hysterical noise, and her emotions changed so quickly that Long Xiaoyu suspected that her previous emotions were deliberately faked. And what Zhu Siping said after calming down made Long Xiaoyu immediately realize that this was the real purpose of her coming to the door today, Siping's choice of such a purpose seemed to be unexpected by Long Xiaoyu at first glance, but it seemed reasonable for him to think about it.

The purpose remains: trade!

The relationship between Siping and Long Xiaoyu in the past is the capital in her hands now, and she wants to make a deal with Long Xiaoyu with this capital.

She said: "Xiao Yu, since you don't love me anymore and hate me anymore, it's not interesting for me to force you." But I'm your girlfriend after all, and I've been with you for a long time. You didn't have a job in the past, I helped you find a job, and when you first arrived at the Centennial Red Winery, you didn't have anything but what you were wearing, and even the quilt you covered was brought from my house. Now that you have climbed the high branches, you have caught up with a rich woman, you like the new and hate the old, you can't say that you will dump me. If you push me into a hurry, I will show you in a hurry, and I will let you see what I will say and do after I am in a hurry. If you are ruthless, I will be ruthless, if you talk about benevolence and righteousness, I will also talk about benevolence and righteousness, anyway, the initiative is in your hands. ”

Long Xiaoyu understood what she meant, and the little warmth and guilt he still retained for Zhu Siping in his heart immediately disappeared. His heart cooled down, and the expression on his face also cooled, and he started negotiations with Zhu Siping with a cold expression that was almost expressionless.

"Okay, let's make it clear, how can I be considered benevolent?"

"I can't talk about this, you should always know it in your heart. You also proposed to break up with me first, and you should tell you how to divide it. ”

"In this way, I can give you a guarantee, when I earn money in the future, I will make some compensation to you, and we can discuss the number today......"

"In the future, when will it be?"

"But I don't have any money right now. If you don't want to wait, I can give you 200 yuan a month from my salary, every month, for one year, for two years, or even for three years. ”

“…… It's okay, but even if you give it for a year, it's only more than 2,000 yuan, and now it's not a lot for you. More than 2,000 yuan bought our relationship, which is too cheap, right? ”

"And how much do you want?"

"In this way, you give me two hundred a month, give me three years, and I don't want much, and after three years, it will be settled. On top of that, you'll have to do me a favor, which is actually a drizzle for you. ”

"What do you want me to help you?"

Siping smiled slightly and said, "The number of the bids you gave me last time for the expansion project is not good, it's too simple." Nobita showed it to the boss of that company, and the boss asked us if you could take out a copy of the bid book and the budget book made by the supervision company, as well as ......" Siping took out a list from his pocket and read it to him: "...... There are also 'summary tables of the bottom of the bid' and 'fee list for unit projects', all of which have to be requested. ”

Long Xiaoyu took the note, which contained a series of documents requested by the construction company that participated in the bidding. Long Xiaoyu had seen all those documents, and after he showed them to Luo Baochun and approved them, he returned them to the preparatory office, and now they are stored in the safe of the preparatory office.

Long Xiaoyu returned the note to Zhu Siping. He was very disgusted with Zhu Siping, the Nobita behind her, and the boss of the construction company behind Nobita, and their insatiable and endless. He said with disgust on his face: "I don't want to do this kind of thing anymore, what do you take me for, traitor or traitor?" ”

Siping was stunned with the note: "Why did you do it last time, why can't you do it this time?" I'm not for myself, I'm for everyone. Everyone is from Shaoxing's hometown, you have eaten and drunk alone, don't you care about everyone? ”

Long Xiaoyu opened his mouth for a long time, he didn't want to be a traitor, he didn't want to be a traitor, he didn't want to be a traitor, he didn't want to be a traitor, the company was his food and clothing, and the boss treated him like flesh and blood, his refusal of Siping's request was originally a straightforward thing, but Siping said "everyone", and the word "everyone" made Long Xiaoyu become unreasonable.

In China, what is the concept of "everyone" among the people in those small places?

"Everyone" is the father, the villagers, the righteousness, and the group of people who have lived with him, endured hardships, and joys, sorrows, and sorrows together. He disregards them, and it is also a betrayal.

Siping saw that Long Xiaoyu was speechless, and continued to reason: "I have already said it anyway, if you are unkind to me, I will be unjust to you." If you smash everyone's jobs, I'll go to your company to make trouble. I'll let everyone up and down in your company know that the boss's daughter is really thick-skinned, relying on her own money, and insisting on robbing other people's boyfriends. I don't care anyway, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, I have to stink her, I can't make her a person! Didn't you say that you can sacrifice everything for her, then you should figure it out, even if you are for her, you shouldn't force me to have no way out, right? ”

Long Xiaoyu's heart was pounding, Siping's words may just be a bluff to call a board, and it may not be a real appearance after the call, but this board makes Long Xiaoyu's soul fly. Seeing that his face turned pale, Zhu Siping couldn't hide his smug smile, and stuffed the two-inch strip in his hand, the "intelligence list" they asked for, to Long Xiaoyu, who was stunned, and then said:

"Then we can be considered to have talked about it, and you can call Nobita directly after you are done."

After Siping finished speaking, he didn't wait for Long Xiaoyu to make a statement, turned around and left, walked a few steps and turned back, and said loudly in a commanding tone:

"Hurry up, the bid will open in two days!"
