Chapter Twenty-Nine: Piercing the Heart
When Yu Chuan and a few people returned home, Zhang Shuqiu was in the living room on the first floor, with the headlights on, and several people were surprised, and when they walked in, they saw Zhang Heng sitting on the sofa in the living room, as if waiting for them.
Zhang Heng saw the four people enter the house, and greeted with a smile: "Are you back?" Come and sit down for a while and take a break. ”
Qu Yingying and Yu Chuan glanced at each other, and knew that it was not that simple, Qu Yingying smiled: "I'll make a phone call at the back, make some tea, and I'm a little thirsty after walking all the way." ”
Yu Chuan answered: "Let's go together, you sit for a while." ”
Zhang Heng said with a smile: "You girls, you are all ghosts, I want to ask, you must also want to know, Xiaoqiu will be back in a while." ”
Zhou Ting followed Zhang Heng's instructions, sat on the sofa on the side, watched several people sit down, smiled and said, "I'll ask something first." ”
Zhang Heng nodded and said, "Well, you ask, these are all very good friends of Xiaoqiu, I'm afraid that there are some things I don't know, they all know." ”
"Has Xiaoqiu been in love over the years?" Zhou Ting went straight in.
Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying were shocked by Zhou Ting's question, and Zhang Heng smiled: "What do you two say?" Whether you've talked about it or not, you must know better than I know. ”
The two shook their heads together, and Zhou Ting continued to ask with a hint of hope: "Have you ever liked anyone?" ”
Yu Chuan shook his head and said, "There are many people who pursue Xiaoqiu, but she never seems to have taken anyone to heart." ”
"She seems to have covered herself, her boyfriend, in her place, just avoid talking about it, we really have no way at all." Qu Yingying said in a low voice.
"We also quarreled with her about this, and she was, how to say it, as if, no matter how good a man came to her, she didn't have a trace of temptation. We avoided her and talked about it, and it felt like it was because of a person named Long Hao......" Yu Chuan added.
"Did she tell you about Long Hao?" Zhou Ting was surprised.
Yu Chuan shook his head and said: "No, if you say it's okay, it's a few years ago, we were classmates in high school and college, we often slept in the same bed, she shouted when she dreamed, and when she went to college later, she rarely heard it, she looked like she had forgotten, or maybe she hid deeper." ”
Zhou Ting sighed softly, and said with a bitter face: "Auntie, I know what you want to ask." Don't say it, I'm sensible early, although I don't know that Long Hao very well, but I can see that he is really good to Xiaoqiu. It's the kind of good that I hold in the palm of my hand for fear of losing it, and I can't describe it if I hold it in my mouth for fear of melting, maybe it's true love, love to the bones. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Ting sniffed and said, "If it were me, I'm afraid it would be difficult to get out." Even if people come out, it's hard to really forget in their hearts. In addition, Xiaoqiu experienced too many traumas in just a few years, her grandmother and father died, and her mother remarried, which hit her very hard, and when she was the most vulnerable and sensitive in adolescence, she met Long Hao, and later Long Hao died again. It's really hard to accept such a series of blows, so she behaved a bit extremely......"
Long Shanshan saw that Zhou Ting couldn't go on, picked her up, and then asked, "Auntie, when Xiaoqiu was like that, did you take her back and take her to see a doctor?" I'm talking about psychiatrists. ”
Zhang Heng sighed and said: "At that time, the psychology department was not as developed as it is now, and it was difficult to find a good psychiatrist. ”
"So how did she get better? I was really scared to death when she was like that. Long Shanshan still had palpitations.
"Later, I really didn't have a choice, so I took advantage of the summer vacation to take her back to the mountains to live for a while. She grew up in the mountains and liked to go down to the river to fish and go up to the trees to dig birds' nests. When she started, she was staring at the pond in front of her house every day.
Then one day, Xiaoshan's brother, named Yunhai, he grew up with Xiaoqiu since he was a child, he suddenly took Xiaoqiu to my brother's grave to sit all day, we adults were so anxious to die, looking everywhere, and then it was almost dark, so we found Xiaoqiu in front of my brother's grave.
The two children sat in front of my brother's grave, crying so much that their eyes were so swollen that they could only see a slit. From that day on, Xiaoqiu suddenly got better, every day she followed the mountains of Yunhai to herd cattle and birds, went down to the river to fish, and was like a black charcoal, I didn't dare to stop her, I could only let her ......" Zhang Heng recalled.
"Later, I asked Yunhai, and he said that he was just sitting there with Xiaoqiu, recalling a lot of things that my brother took them to play, and then he scolded Xiaoqiu, and then Xiaoqiu began to cry.
After that day, Xiaoqiu suddenly felt like a different person, not like when she was a child, but she was no longer naughty. After I came back to school, I started to go to school hard, and I really didn't have to worry about my studies.
What's more, I don't have to worry about anything, I thought she suddenly wanted to open it, who knows, it became what it is today.
To say, I actually wanted to open a few years ago, as long as she is doing well, she will be alone, but this doesn't seem to be it, I ...... in my heart" Zhang Heng continued.
Qu Yingying looked at Zhang Hengzhi and sighed, and comforted: "Auntie, look at us, although we have all become families, we all have our own troubles, Xiaoqiu is like this, but it is still free and easy." ”
How do you know that Yu Chuan shook his head and said: "That's what I said, but Xiaoqiu, Xiaoqiu, she seems to be moving forward, but her mind is stuck in the past......"
This topic was too heavy, and several people were silent, Zhou Ting suddenly touched her face and said, "Xiaoqiu is coming back soon, I'm going to take a bath." Auntie, this matter is in a hurry, take your time, I look at the person today, but he is more anxious than us, maybe it is a good medicine. ”
After Zhou Ting said this, Zhang Heng was stunned, looked at her thoughtfully, and laughed and said: "You kid, it's almost the same as what our family Li Yun said, forget it, anyway, although that kid is ...... But the people are good. All right, you should hurry up and go your own way. Tingting, Auntie has a sentence and wants to ask you alone. ”
When the three of them went upstairs, Zhang Hengcai asked in a low voice: "Tingting, Xiaoqiu's money, do you know what's going on?" ”
Zhou Ting was stunned and asked, "Auntie, what did Xiaoqiu say?" ”
"She said that she used the money left by his father to invest in others and open an Internet café to earn it." Zhang Heng will be suspicious.
Zhou Ting squinted her eyes and said, "Auntie, it should be true, and I don't know the specific situation." But I seem to have asked once, Xiaoqiu said that Long Hao gave her dividends every month. I didn't even know what the dividend meant at the time, but now that I think about it, it should be what Xiaoqiu told you. ”
Zhang Heng nodded and said, "That's okay, Xiaoqiu, this kid, if you don't say it, you don't lie." Thank you, child, if it wasn't for you and Shanshan, Xiaoqiu might have ......"
Zhou Ting shook her head and said, "Auntie, don't say that, if it weren't for Xiaoqiu and Shanshan, I wouldn't be where I am today." Hey, I, I don't want to talk about my old things. Anyway, for me, they probably don't know, if it weren't for the two of them, I'm afraid I'd be a puddle of mud. ”
Zhang Heng patted Zhou Ting's shoulder and said, "It's all over, Auntie, look, you are very good now, smart and transparent, unlike our Xiaoqiu, it looks like everything is really good, it's in my heart, hey......"
"Auntie, they all say that time is the best medicine to heal wounds, maybe this medicine is working slowly, but we can't see it, we need a medicine to urge it." Zhou Ting pointed out.
"Hopefully, hey, okay, you go and rest." Zhang Heng nodded helplessly.
Zhou Ting went up to the second floor, Yu Chuan had just finished calling the child, Zhou Ting asked with a smile: "Xiaochuan, what is that Ning Ye doing?" What's going on in his house? ”
Yu Chuan blinked and introduced Ning Ye's identity, and continued: "I don't know what the specific background of his family is, anyway, there is a big background, and Xiaoqiu knows better." ”
Two people in the room heard them chatting and walked out.
Zhou Ting breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Yu Chuan's words and said: "I thought what the situation was, what was this, even if there was a background, which one did Xiaoqiu lose?" Her current assets, you must know better than me, her work is upright, loud and loud, who do you lose to? Besides, Xiaoqiu grew up with her aunt, even if their family is not as good as that family, there is nothing to find fault with. If you take 10,000 steps back, even if you can't do anything in the future, at least Xiaoqiu is willing to go forward. So, sisters, cheer up, when you can push a step, don't pull back! ”
The three of them laughed when Zhou Tingting said something, Yu Chuan glanced at Qu Yingying and said: "It's still Tingting who can see it thoroughly, the two of us have been with Xiaochuan for a long time, and in these things, we always feel that it is taboo, and we are all stunned by Xiaoqiu." ”
This woman has a common gossip object, and the friendship is established, which is simply rocket speed, Long Shanshan said: "Sisters, let's build a group, you see, the two of you are close to Xiaoqiu, you have to be responsible for the implementation of the strategy, and we Tingting is responsible for coming up with ideas, right." ”
Zhou Ting smiled: "What about you?" Pull you into the group to be responsible for eating melons and watching the excitement? ”
"Me, in addition to eating melons, I can also make ideas, but it's too far away, and the whip can't reach it......" Long Shanshan muttered while operating face-to-face group building on her mobile phone.
"If you want me to say, what's the use of you building this group, can you still pull Xiaoqiu into the group? Isn't that the same as doing underground work? Zhou Ting said while scanning the code.
"Why is it useless, you wait and see, it's useful......" Long Shanshan said as she stretched out her phone in front of Yu Chuan.
"Okay, okay, it's useful, I'll take a shower, don't talk to you." Zhou Ting waved her hand.
Yu Chuan turned on the light in the bathroom while operating his mobile phone, took out a clean bath towel from the cabinet, and said to Zhou Ting: "You wash slowly, don't worry, you can take a bath in the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms." ”
"Okay, thank you!" Zhou Ting said while entering the bathroom with her pajamas.
"Then I'll go upstairs and wash, is there a bath towel upstairs?" Long Shanshan set up a group and asked contentedly.
"Yes, it's in the same cupboard, you can look for yourself." Yu Chuan replied.
Ning Ye followed Zhang Shuqiu, entered the bustling pedestrian street, and penetrated into an alley in the middle of the street that could only accommodate two people walking side by side, a pair of young men and women in love were lingering in the shadow of the street lamp, Zhang Shuqiu did not squint and walked around, Ning Ye caught up with her and walked side by side, and asked with a smile: "Are you very familiar?" Coming often? ”
"My aunt often buys this to give away, and every time I come to pick it up and send it to someone." Zhang Shuqiu replied in a cold voice.
"Then why didn't she tell me today......" At this point, she suddenly paused and smiled brightly.
When Zhang Shuqiu heard this, he turned his head to look at Ning Ye, and when he saw that he suddenly stopped talking and smiled so brightly, he immediately understood, but he sighed helplessly.
Ning Ye suddenly turned Zhang Shuqiu's shoulders and faced her, the smile on his face couldn't be concealed at all: "Look, your aunt is optimistic about us, why don't you think about it?" ”
"What to consider? It's all an old person, can you be more mature. If you don't leave, Granny Jiang can close the door early. Zhang Shuqiu took Ning Ye's hand and said.
"That's right, they're all old people, so don't hurry up and make a quick decision." Ning Ye followed Zhang Shuqiu and continued.
"Are you playing a game? I'm not that interested. Zhang Shuqiu waved his hand.
"You're right to say that, anyway, this life is really a game, but it's a little longer and more realistic. I'm tired of fighting monsters alone, it's boring, but if I add you, it should be very interesting. Ning Ye continued to persuade.
"Ha, I'm sorry, I don't want to fight monsters. I want to fight with you, there are a lot of people, you ......"
"Why do you keep mentioning this, if I want to fight monsters with others, I will have cleared the customs a long time ago......" Ning Ye suddenly felt that what he said was wrong, and hurriedly stopped.
"You're right, a person who doesn't have the desire to fight can't help you clear the level."
"I don't need your help, you just stand next to me and watch, you just need to follow me, with you by my side, I can clear the customs by myself......"
"You're really narcissistic, are you still a child, forget it, I won't tell you." Zhang Shuqiu pouted.
The deeper the alley, the farther away from the previous bustle, the moonlight was very bright, Ning Ye's eyes were burning, and he pressed Zhang Shuqiu against the wall with both hands and said, "I really want to go back to the past with you, if I go back to the past, I will definitely not miss you like that." Xiaoqiu, do you know, after so many years, I have never forgotten your eyes. You won't believe me when I say it, when Yu Chuan handed me your resume that morning, I could feel that my whole body was numb......"
That focused gaze, all the joy and love in that gaze...... It all made Zhang Shuqiu feel like he had been spelled in an instant, there was once a person who looked at her like that every day, and at that time, she was happy and sweet, and would look at him with the same gaze......
When the long-lost warmth approached her again, she couldn't help but approach the warmth, her hands wrapped around his waist, she wanted to rub herself into his body, she responded to his lingering with the tip of her tongue, she could feel the heart beating fast in his chest, because she was the same......
The moment Zhang Shuqiu's hand wrapped around Ning Ye, his brain buzzed, and the ecstasy like an explosion guided him, more intensely demanding and entangled, and when she responded to him with the tip of her tongue, he almost felt like he was dreaming.
They could both feel each other's strong desire, switching between intense, lingering, and shallow, until both of them felt that their legs had begun to go numb, and he slowly let go of her, and called softly with satisfaction: Xiaoqiu, Xiaoqiu......
Zhang Shuqiu was awakened by that voice, blinked her eyes vigorously, and finally saw that face clearly by the moonlight, her face turned pale for a moment, pushed Ning Ye away and hurriedly walked back.
Ning Ye was pushed by Zhang Shuqiu, and before he could stand firm, she had already walked a long way, so Ning Ye had no choice but to jump up and follow.
Ning Ye saw Zhang Shuqiu's eyes that pushed him away for a moment, it was a kind of gloom that seemed to be desperate after waking up from a dream. He had mixed feelings in his heart, but he vaguely understood that he had finally touched the deepest barrier in her heart, and at this time, he didn't dare to persecute Zhang Shuqiu again, he was afraid that if he pushed too hard, it would backfire......
Zhang Shuqiu's face was pale, walking as fast as a gust of wind, and she could still feel the residual swelling and pain on her lips, but the night breeze blew away the warmth in one fell swoop......
