Chapter 8: A Dureary Life
Yufei's affairs seem to be developing in a good direction, his body is recovering day by day, and people are cheerful and lively, Yiran can finally relax and take a good rest.
During the lunch break, Yiran, who was in a very good mood, called Liu Wei and made an appointment to go out for a big meal together in the evening to treat himself, Liu Wei also happily agreed, promising to pick her up after work.
Once people have expectations, time will pass in an extra hurry. Before you know it, it's time to get off work. The colleagues all left one after another, and Yiran waited for Liu Wei to arrive while enjoying the scenery outside the window.
Outside the window, the dusk has gradually dissipated, replaced by a neon-lit night. Liu Wei hasn't come yet, if it was in the past, he should have arrived a long time ago. Yi Ran called Liu Wei again, and Liu Wei's anxious voice was on the other end of the phone: "I'm sorry, my wife, I was temporarily arrested to make a plan, and it will be over in a while, can you take a taxi to the restaurant by yourself first?" I'll go over when I'm done.
"Okay, you don't have to be in a hurry, it's okay if we eat later, be careful when driving on the road" Yi Ran expressed understanding.
Yiran had no choice but to take a taxi to the restaurant by herself. When he arrived at the restaurant, Yi Ran came to the pre-booked seat and waited for Liu Wei, Yi Ran ordered the food, but told the waiter to wait for the others to serve the food again.
has nothing to do, and is bored to pass the time by brushing the circle of friends. At this time, most of the friends in the circle of friends are selling things, eating food, and showing affection. Yi Ran didn't hurry to look at them one by one at this time, and finally stopped at a picture. This picture is a beautiful sunrise in a corner of a city, in the gap of a towering building complex, with the text: I miss you. The person who posted this status is Lee Jun-ho, and the time of publication was an hour ago. Yi Ran smiled, remembering that this should be written to the girl he liked before. As an older sister, you should cheer him on, Yi Ran thought to herself. So like and leave a message under Junhe's picture: Come on.
A minute later, Junwa replied to Yiran: I will.
The guests in the restaurant, like the tide, came and left in waves, and the time was unconsciously late at night. Yi Ran looked at his watch, it was already half past nine, the restaurant was about to close, and Liu Wei hadn't come yet. Yiran was already hungry and impatient. Yi Ran wanted to understand Liu Wei and tried to do so. But lately it seems like she's been waiting too much, and it doesn't seem to be able to wait. Just like two days ago, Liu Wei was supposed to go to the hospital to pick up Yiran home, but in the end, he didn't wait for him to come, and he still troubled Junhe to send her back. Yiran didn't want to think about Liu Wei's bad things, because she believed that his feelings for her had stood the test for so many years, and she didn't want to be jealous of his career like a little girl. But lately, it's always been like this in the state of life that makes her haggard, like a person with a fire in her belly, but she can't find an outlet to vent, or even find the reason for her anger.
Yi Ran left the restaurant and walked around the street alone to adjust his mental state. State. In the busy city, everyone seems to be very happy and lively, and it seems that only Yiran feels lonely. Yi Ran has been really tired recently, she has been worrying about Yufei before, and now she has to face Liu Wei's absence often. Walking on the street so aimlessly is also a relief, a relief from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Yi Ran recalled what happened when Liu Wei first began to pursue himself. At that time, Liu Wei always cherished the time he spent with him. In order to see Yiran, he gave up a lot of friends' gatherings, and even the party at work would find an early reason to end it early and sneak out. In order not to affect work or dating, give up the rest time to catch up with work. There have even been unexpected surprises that appeared in front of my eyes in the stormy weather. But how has this changed? When people reach middle age, do they feel more and more important about work? Or if you have become a husband and wife, you won't want to cherish it. Yi Ran, who thinks she is mature and steady, has long wanted to live in love like a little girl, but if the consequences of maturity and stability are only alienation and indifference, what is the meaning of life?
At half past ten, Liu Wei called and asked where Yiran was? Yi Ran was waiting for Liu Wei on the side of the road.
After a while, Liu Wei came, still apologizing to Yiran as usual and asking for forgiveness. Yi Ran didn't even have to think about it to know what he was going to say to himself, always the same few words, always the same expression, and thought that Yi Ran would understand him and tolerate him the same. But this time Yi Ran didn't, Yi Ran didn't have a word to say to him, and he couldn't talk about it, even listening to his rhetoric and flamboyant words to tease himself, I felt disgusted. Liu Wei's words and actions are like a kind of trampling on his self-esteem, and he doesn't know it yet. Yi Ran felt disgusted.
The two people who returned home suddenly looked like strangers, without any communication, and each rested. Yiran went home and slept. Liu Wei was also tired, and in his opinion, both coping with work and dealing with Yiran exhausted him.
The next day, Yiran got up early and went to the hospital alone. Today is the day Yufei is discharged from the hospital. Yi Ran had to rush over early to help Yufei go through the discharge procedures, pack his things, and then rush to work. At dawn, I took a taxi and went straight to the hospital.
The hospital is quiet in the early morning, and only the nurses on duty are at the nurses' station to prepare for a busy day's work.
When Yiran passed by the fire corridor, it was sunrise, and he accidentally caught a glimpse of a beautiful scene, and this scene seemed familiar. Yi Ran stopped to watch, admired it carefully, and then suddenly realized that the picture in front of him was exactly the same as the photo Junhe posted in the circle of friends yesterday. Then the location where Junhe took pictures is where Yiran is standing now.
Yi Ran admired Junhe's infatuation in his heart, it seems that Junhe misses that girl all the time, so when he sees the beautiful scenery, he takes pictures and sends them to the circle of friends to express his lovesickness. Yi Ran actually had a little envy in her heart, this kind of beautiful and simple love was far away from her. When I fell in love with my senior, I had the same state of mind, and when I saw beautiful things, I was always the first to think of my seniors and hope to share them together. At that time, everything I saw in my eyes was beautiful, and in my heart at that time, when I thought of the person I loved, it was always sweeter than honey. Maybe it's like Junhe now, when he talks about liking girls, his face will be red and his eyes will become extremely gentle.
