Chapter 26: Five Birthday Gifts
After Shen Nianxi finished emptying the ashtray, he did not immediately go upstairs to rest, but held the ashtray in one hand, scooped up the cigarette case and lighter in the other, and slowly came to the floor-to-ceiling window.
He took a cigarette from the case, put it in his mouth, lit it, and then quietly smoked it again.
In fact, the sudden pause in Su Haochen's words just now, Shen Nianxi heard it and understood, and he also knew what Su Haochen wanted to say.
What Su Haochen wants to say is - I am a person with a father.
What about off-string sounds?
The sound outside the strings is that he Shen Nianxi, who has no father.
Indeed, Shen Nianxi has had no father since he was a child, he was five years old, Shen Nianxi can't remember it clearly, maybe Shen Nianxi was only five years old that year, Shen Nianxi's father Shen Ping, for his own future, abandoned his wife and children, and got along with a rich daughter.
What a ruthless and unrighteous scumbag!
Until now, when Shen Nianxi mentioned the word Shen Ping, he still hated it.
If that person hadn't been his biological father, perhaps, over the years, he would have sent someone to cut him with thousands of knives, break his body into thousands of pieces, and then throw him into the river to feed the fish.
But that person was his father after all, his biological father, and even if he wanted to, his mother would never agree.
After all, the blood of the father/mother is thicker than water.
Thinking of this, thinking of the man named Shen Ping, who had not come to see her mother for more than 20 years, and even his own son, Shen Nianxi hated his father's ruthless abandonment back then.
Perhaps, from that time, from the moment Shen Ping abandoned his wife and children, Shen Nianxi has always had a belief in his heart, that is, if he has a lover in the future, then he must be good to her, be good to her for the rest of his life, never abandon or leave, and depend on each other in life and death.
Because, Shen Nianxi knows how difficult and bitter it is for a man to abandon a woman.
Because he has seen his mother's tears and his mother's bitter blood, he empathizes.
Maybe it's also because of his father, so Shen Nianxi has had a deep grudge against the word "abandonment" since he was a child.
Therefore, when Yu Ruyi ruthlessly abandoned him, he was so sad, so sad, and so resentful!
He's to be resentful, right? After all, he never wanted to abandon her, but she chose to abandon him.
Can you say he shouldn't be hated?
Can you blame him for his hatred?
Can't!
Not really!
In fact, what can you complain about his resentment?
He, Shen Nianxi, is a person who hates "abandonment" so much, but in the end he was abandoned, if it were you, how can you be generous and relieved?
We are all ordinary people, and there are not many Bodhisattvas in this world who have become Buddhas on the ground, and who can say how much Shen Nianxi has done?
Perhaps, there is nothing wrong with abandoning itself, but the fault lies with the person who abandoned.
And Shen Nianxi always felt in his heart that it was Yu Ruyi who was wrong!
Although Shen Nianxi is not so lofty and pampered in the face of love, he always feels in his heart that the love between him and Yu Ruyi is to bow his head and admit his mistake first in Ruyi.
In fact, as long as Yu Ruyi explained the events of the year to Shen Nianxi, explained it clearly, and then apologized to him a little, Shen Nianxi really felt that he would be like a pug, revolving around Yu Ruyi again.
However, Yu Ruyi's indifference, Yu Ruyi's ruthlessness, and Yu Ruyi's ridicule made Shen Nianxi feel that his idea was really bullshit.
However, Shen Nianxi forgot one thing - in love, people cannot distinguish between right and wrong. As long as you have the idea of right and wrong, in love, you are already wrong as a man.
Because in love, a woman is always right, right is right, and wrong is right.
Because you like her, everything she says is right.
This is love!
This is what makes countless men and women in the world, old and young, openly hateful, secretly fascinated, duplicitous, love.
It also makes you happy and sad, love!
Because love is emotional, not reasonable, so if you want to be reasonable in love and distinguish between right and wrong, then you are destined to not get the love you want.
It's just that Shen Nianxi still doesn't understand this truth at this moment!
However, after all, they have been in love for so many years; However, after all, it was the girl I fell in love with for the first time; However, after all, Shen Nianxi always felt in his heart that if he couldn't be with Yu Ruyi in this life, then he would rather die alone and grow old.
Therefore, even if Yu Ruyi said so many cruel things to him and did many actions that made him sad, Shen Nianxi still hated and loved this woman called Yu Ruyi in his heart.
Because of deep love, so wait.
Because the mustard is difficult to eliminate, so wait and wait.
Perhaps, Shen Nianxi also felt that he might one day go to Yu Ruyi and ask and talk about the things of the year, but he felt that now was not the time.
Perhaps, now, being able to look at her from afar and look at her is already a great happiness for Shen Nianxi now.
After all, in the past five years, although he Shen Nianxi is looking forward to it, he has never dared to covet the Hutong girl he has been thinking about again.
Now, although she can't regain her old dreams, she can look at each other from afar, and even help her when she needs help, perhaps, this is already a great happiness.
People, to know that they are always happy.
What his mother once told him, Shen Nianxi also wrote down.
Go with the flow, take a step, count it as a step.
Shen Nianxi could only comfort himself like this again in his heart.
After smoking the last puff of cigarette and extinguishing the cigarette butt in the ashtray, Shen Nianxi walked slowly to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, he took a bottle of Evian water out, unscrewed the cap, he took a big sip of it, and as sleepiness hit, Shen Nianxi also took the steps and went upstairs to sleep.
……
Following.
Su Haochen didn't wake up until half past eight in the morning, and when he woke up, Shen Nianxi was no longer in the capital villa, and only the maid Sun Ma was cleaning in the villa.
"Mother Sun, where is Shen Nianxi?" When he walked down from the second floor and went to the restaurant for breakfast, Su Haochen asked his grandmother.
"At six o'clock in the morning, the young master will leave." Mother Sun said back to Su Haochen.
"He's such a madman, he slept so late yesterday and woke up so early today." Su Haochen said to himself.
"Since I came to the young master's house to be a servant, the young master has almost always gotten up at six o'clock to go to the company, and only went to bed in the middle of the night, there has never been a day that is not like this." Sun Ma said while wiping the cigarette ash that fell from Su Haochen and Shen Nianxi when they smoked on the coffee table yesterday.
"Then he really deserves to succeed! As hard as he is, if he doesn't succeed, it may be intolerable. Su Haochen joked with his grandmother while eating the breakfast that Shen Nianxi was leaving.
"Huh." Hearing Su Haochen say this about Shen Nianxi, Sun Ma also smiled helplessly and shook her head, but she has been working as a maid in Shen Nianxi's villa for almost four or five years, so she also knows the relationship between Su Haochen and Shen Nianxi, and knows that these two brothers have always talked like this, and it is not strange at the moment.
Therefore, at the moment, Sun Ma also smiled and said, "The young master can achieve such success and fame at such a young age, and it is indeed that he has paid a lot more than ordinary people." Sometimes, when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, I can see that the young master is still in the study to deal with the company's documents, he really pays too much for the company and for the work. ”
"What's he doing for the company?" Su Haochen said after swallowing a xiaolongbao in one gulp.
"The young master is not for the company, so why is he working so hard? Young Master Su, you don't know, sometimes, when I look at the young master, I feel tired and panicked for her. He really should rest and rest, over the years, I see that he has not rested very well, it seems that on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve every year, he can be regarded as able to go to his wife and accompany his wife to watch the Spring Festival Gala, which is considered a day off. Mother Sun said with emotion.
"Don't worry! He's about to rest. Su Haochen said to his grandmother with a smile.
"Coming to rest? Why, Young Master Su? Mother Sun inquired curiously to Su Haochen.
"Because a man is back." Su Haochen said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"What's that called...... Yu Ruyi's girl? Mother Sun asked Su Haochen tentatively.
"You know that?! Sunma, you're not simple! Su Haochen said with a smile.
"I'm an old woman, what's not simple." After finishing cleaning up the coffee table, Mama Sun took out the vacuum cleaner again, and said to Su Haochen while working, "When I was cleaning up the young master's study, I could always see this name in the wastebasket, so I knew it." ”
"Then what else do you know, Grandma?" Su Haochen asked his grandmother with interest.
"Otherwise, I don't really know anything." Mother Sun frowned, as if searching for some memory in her brain, and then, she patted her head lightly, as if she suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, on August 5th every year, the young master will definitely buy a gift, and then put it on the top of the bookshelf, very baby!" ”
"Sometimes, when I say I'm going to clean up the bookshelves for him or something, he won't let me touch those gifts, saying that they are souvenirs and very valuable, and I am afraid that I will break them. So, over the years, the bookshelves and everything have been cleaned up by the young master himself, which is fine, I have one less job, hehe. Speaking of this, Sun Ma laughed stupidly.
"Mom, guess what souvenirs are in there?" Su Haochen asked his grandmother with a smile.
"Young Master Su, you are teasing my wife again, how can you have any souvenirs? I saw that the young master had opened those gift boxes, they were all things that little girls liked, I remember that there seemed to be a pink dress, a bag, and perfume and lipstick, all of which were some luxuries. ”
"Because I remember my daughter-in-law also bought those things, as if they were the same thing, and it took her salary for several months. There are five things in total, and I can't remember what else, old woman. Mama Sun frowned, as if trying to remember what the last gift was.
"It's a ring." Su Haochen suddenly spoke.
