Chapter 195: An Unbelievable Reunion
Song Yuanyang's car drove slowly on the quiet road in the suburbs of London, Mei Ruojun was full of novelty about this foreign country, but she was not in the mood to savor the exotic scenery here, nor did she have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery here.
She clenched her fists nervously, thinking about the scene of the reunion with Ruikang later, all kinds of possibilities, all kinds of situations, and the thought of seeing Ruikang made her heart beat wildly.
The car slowly stopped in front of the two huge iron gates, the driver honked the horn, and after a while, the big iron gate opened, and Song Yuanyang turned around and said, "Ruojun, look at the words on it." ”
Ruojun poked his head out, and on the arched iron frame above the gate, he actually wrote two large Chinese characters "Mei Yuan" in brass.
The manor is full of lush trees, exotic flowers and plants that are pruned into various geometric figures, neat, regular, elegant, and full of beauty, the car slowly drove forward for seven or eight minutes, drove to a large circular flower bed and circled half a circle, the center of the flower bed is a huge fountain, in the middle of the pool is a three-layer flower-shaped fountain, the water droplets reflect the sun's rays, crystal clear, like a splashing pearl scattered in all directions, spraying around, beautiful.
Ruojun has always liked beautiful things, and he can't help but be a little stunned. The car went around the flower bed and came to a grand and beautiful house. The car stopped, and immediately two servants came up and respectfully opened the door.
"I really didn't expect Ruikang to be so rich now." Jiaqi said.
Song Yuanyang said with a smile: "That's my unique investment vision. ”
"Come on, I know you're amazing, hey, I'm going to help my family Zhihong plan another day." Jiaqi smiled slightly.
"Yo, your Liang Zhihong is a doer, I don't dare to come up with random ideas."
Everyone got out of the car, and Jiaqi sighed: "This Zhou Ruikang is really, he is famous, his family is rich, but he can't see through it at all, what's the use of having such a big family business?" I don't know how to take care of it myself. ”
"Yes! I really can't help it. He doesn't seem to eat the fireworks of the world. I don't even know what's going on in his head. Song Yuanyang kept shaking his head. Take them upstairs.
"He, a lover, is incomprehensible to a layman like you and me. Only fairies understand. Jiaqi laughed at herself, turned around and took Ruojun's hand and said, "Ruojun, think about it yourself." ”
Mei Ruojun looked around at the spacious and bright hall and the palatial hall, and felt that she was humble.
"Consider what?" She asked in a low voice.
"This ......" Jiaqi didn't continue, she thought that Ruikang might die in a few months, she felt sad in her heart, and she couldn't say anything else, waved her hand, and said, "Forget it, it's useless to say anything now." ”
On the second floor, Helen walked out of the suite, put her index finger to her lips, and "shhh
"What's wrong?"
"He fell asleep. I think you'd better wait before you go in. Helen said.
Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi both nodded. Only Ruojun shook his head: "No, I'm going to go in and accompany him." You left me alone with him. ”
Everyone thought about it, exchanged glances with each other, nodded and went downstairs.
Standing in front of the beautiful wood-framed stained glass door, she still had the feeling of dreaming, yes, every time she was with Ruikang, it was the beginning of the dream, she took three deep breaths before she had the courage to unscrew the doorknob.
She finally walked into his bedroom, his bedroom was actually a suite, outside was an exquisite living room, English leather sofa, coffee table, small bar, gramophone, and a beautiful curved desk, next to it were two large bookcases, full of all kinds of books, elegant and noble, calm and magnificent.
Ruojun gently unscrewed the door to Ruikang's bedroom. The bedroom was dark, the thick curtains were drawn, isolating the sunlight outside the window, only the curtains were in the cracks, the light outside the window was through, Ruojun stood at the door for a while, only to get used to the dimness of the room, walked to a sofa chair next to the bed and sat down.
In the dark, she couldn't see his face clearly, only a silhouette, it was him, the cinnabar mole in her heart, the imprint that could never be erased, he slept very deeply, his breathing was even but very muddy, she wanted to turn on the light to take a good look at him, but she wanted him to rest well.
She gently put his exposed arm into the quilt, put her hand in his palm, and gently held his.
After nearly two months of travel, she was also very tired, and in the dark environment, she couldn't help but doze off, so she put her head on her forearm and fell into a deep sleep. Until his rapid coughing sound woke the two of them from sleep at the same time, Ruojun quickly rubbed his eyes, held his hand tightly and asked, "Ruikang, how are you?" Ruikang? ”
He was stunned, how could this voice, which appeared thousands of times in his dreams, be so real, so close, is it still a dream?
"You, you are?" He asked weakly in the dark.
"I'm Ruojun, Mei Ruojun." She replied tenderly in the dark.
He was silent for a while, because her answer suffocated him, he couldn't tell if what he heard was true or a dream, or if he was dead, because it was so dark around him, did he just fall asleep and had already fallen asleep, so he was talking to Ruojun in another world?
"Ruikang, it's me, it's really me, I've been taking a train, a car, a ship, and a car from Shenyang, and I walked for two months before I came to you."
"No...... This can't be ......" He coughed again, his breath completely confused, and kept pulling his breath: "You...... You must be an actor invited by Song Yuanyang ....... invited...... Is it? You are an actor he hired, he asked you to pretend to be Ruojun, and wanted me to go back to the hospital, no, I won't go back to the hospital, I will take care of my roses and Merlin with my own hands, and when Ruojun comes, she will be very happy and like it very much. You are impersonating, you go, go! He shook off her hand and said urgently and angrily.
"I'm really Ruojun, really, not an actor, I don't know where the lights are in this room, you can turn on the lights and look at me."
He was quiet for a few seconds, and suddenly roared: "No, I don't want to see you, you are not Ruojun, Ruojun she is married, she is married to someone else, she has her home, she doesn't want me anymore, she won't come." He said in confusion and pain, "You go, go." ”
"Go, go, even if you're real, you're going fast! I don't want to see you, don't! He choked up excitedly and said,
She anxiously groped around, trying to find a light source so he could see her face.
He suddenly grabbed her hands, held them tightly in his palms, and said excitedly in the dark in an extremely trembling voice: "Don't turn on the light, you stand up now, get out of here quickly, go back, hear it, go back!" ”
"You don't want me?" She cried and asked in a daze, she had thought of a hundred scenes of reunion, but she did not expect that he would drive her away in the dark.
He was silent again for a few seconds, and then said resolutely: "Yes, I don't want you!" I don't want to see you either! Come on! Get out of here! He pushed her hands away.
"Ruikang ......" She couldn't suppress the grief in her chest, choked up and couldn't speak.
"I don't care if you're real or fake, I don't want to see you, I can't see you, if you're fake, I'll be disappointed again, if you're real, I'll be miserable again, go back and live the ......life you want," he said as he coughed.
She stood up sadly, walked to the door, and reached for the doorknob. The sunlight that came in through the window in the corner of his eye, and his heart was horizontal: "I have been on the road for two months, and I have come all the way to find you, even if you don't want to see me, I have to see you." When I see you, I'll go! With that, she walked briskly to the window and pulled back the curtains.
The rare bright sunlight instantly lit up the bedroom completely, he raised his hand to block the dazzling light, and after a long time, when his eyes adjusted to the light in the room, he saw her clearly and clearly. She stood in front of the window, wearing an elegant and delicate white cheongsam embroidered with plum blossoms, her bumpy figure was still so charming, and the sunlight shrouded her figure.
Her side, like a silhouette printed in front of the window, light bangs, long eyelashes, a straight nose, small lips, and a slightly upturned chin.
She turned slowly. She saw him, pale, emaciated, emaciated, in a loose silk pajamas, sitting reclining in the center of the great bed, looking so lonely and lonely.
God, she thought he was doing well, she thought he was living a rich and luxurious life every day, with fine clothes and food, surrounded by servants, and full of friends, even if he was slightly lacking in feelings, at least he should be happy. But she was wrong, he lived a hellish life, and his heart was tormented in the fire of hell all the time.
His eyes no longer have the brilliance of the day, he is no longer elegant and noble, he is no longer chic and handsome, his eyes are full of red threads, his eye sockets are deeply sunken, and his originally toned and sexy physique has become thin and thin.
They just stared at each other like that, and her heart was broken, and so was his.
Ruikang ...... Ruikang ...... Ruikang ......" She walked quickly to the bed and threw herself into his arms: "Oh my God, why are you so sick?" ”
He was stunned, still unable to believe that everything in front of him was real, his plum blossoms really came to England from far away Shenyang? Did his plum blossoms really come back to him? Is his plum blossom really in his arms?
He still had some suspicions that this was an actor invited by Song Yuanyang, he stretched out his trembling hands, gently picked up her face, and looked at her carefully over and over again, God, her appearance did not change at all, just like the first time he saw her. Such a beautiful and dusty, beautiful and charming, his tears suddenly overflowed his eyes.
Trembling lips, he said, "It's really you, it's really you fool." ”
He took a breath, coughed again and again, and said, "You fool, why do you come all the way to see me, a dying man?" I just let you go, why don't you go? Do you know that now you can't go away, you can't go away anymore. He hugged her tightly.
"No, you're not going to die, I'm not going to let you die. As I said, you give birth to me, and you die and I die. If you die, then everything in this world doesn't matter. I won't let you die, I won't let you die, and if you die, I'll go with you. She said resolutely.
He gently pinched her chin, looked at her in pain, and a tear fell into her eyes: "I know, but I can't fight fate......"
"I don't believe it. Ruikang, tell me, do you still love me? Do you still want me? She reached out and stroked his emaciated cheek.
"You're asking the stupidest, stupidest question. Of course I love you and I want you. He replied to her bitterly and excitedly.
"Then live for me. I'm here, you said you want to show me roses, see the plum blossom forest, I want you to show me every day. She put his hand to her lips and kissed it: "I'll take care of you myself, okay?" ”
He looked into her eyes, suddenly felt a force in his body, pulled her to the bed, nodded like a child finding its mother, and the two hugged each other tightly.
After a long time, the two relieved some of the pain of lovesickness, she gently pressed him to the bed, covered him with a quilt, sat beside him, smiled, gently touched his cheek and said, "From today on, you have to listen to me, okay?" ”
"Good. I listen to you. He looked at her stupidly, smiled, and held her hand tightly, afraid that she would disappear in an instant.
"You have to rest a lot, be happy, and cooperate with the doctor's treatment." She asked him gently.
Ruikang smiled: "Okay, I'll listen to you for everything." ”
"I will take care of your diet myself. Prepare something for you to eat, tell me, what do you want to eat? She asked him softly.
"Everything you do is delicious, and I still remember the ginger soup you made for me that winter." He looked at her affectionately.
In a word, they both stayed in the kitchen of the Zhou family on that winter night many years ago...... The past is gone? But it was clear as if it had just happened yesterday, and the two looked at each other and smiled, without saying anything more.
Ruojun walked around the bedroom, pointed to the window and said, "I can make a small bed here." Can you help me tell them later? ”
Ruikang laughed and said, "Isn't this bed big enough?" As soon as the words came out, suddenly, both of them remembered the fact that Ruojun was married, and the atmosphere suddenly fell, and their hearts were aching.
Ruikang fell from the clouds into the abyss, just now when they met again, the two of them forgot everything in reality, they returned to the past together, but now she is Meng Shuzhi's wife, how can she let her accompany her? Moreover, the past is long gone.
His reason returned to his mind, he knew that many things could not be returned, and the Mei Ruojun in front of him was no longer the Mei Ruojun who loved him deeply back then.
He leaned back on the bed, looked deeply at her fluttering figure, coughed lightly twice, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I was so surprised just now, I was dizzy with joy, I said the wrong thing." Don't mind. She shook her head and remained silent.
He coughed rapidly, she hurriedly stepped forward to smooth his chest, he gently pulled her hand, shook his head, looked at her deeply, he said in a calm voice: "I think you should go back, I don't know why you came, but I know that you don't want to come." You don't have to worry about me, I've been alone for so many years, I've long been used to it. ”
She froze, and he chased her away again. Before she could speak, he suddenly pulled the bell next to the bed, and the maid walked in, and Ruikang ordered Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi to come in.
After a while, Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi came in, and everyone was very strange about the atmosphere in the room.
Ruikang looked up at Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi, and said lightly: "Yuanyang, Jiaqi, thank you for doing so much for me." I have friends like you in this life. If I could, I would like to ask you one last thing. Ruikang looked at Ruojun who was sitting on the edge of the bed, hanging his head, and said with a faint smile: "I want to trouble you to send Mrs. Meng back to her husband and children." ”
"What?!" Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi looked at each other, "It took a lot of effort for everyone to reunite the two of you, what's wrong with you?" ”
"yes, shouldn't the reunion be tearful and exciting?" Jiaqi was also puzzled.
Ruikang coughed sharply, waved his hand, frowned, his chest ached faintly, it was very uncomfortable, relieved, he sighed and said, "How can you let someone else's wife accompany me?" That's ridiculous. Although I am grateful to you. But that doesn't work. Let her go back. ”
Song Yuanyang's eyes widened, and just as he was about to speak, Ruikang resolutely raised his hand and waved: "Don't talk about Yuanyang, they are all middle-aged, many things, everyone just understands in their hearts, I don't have the strength." Take her away. I won't send it. ”
No matter what Song Yuanyang and Cheng Jiaqi said, Ruikang just insisted that Ruojun leave, while Mei Ruojun was just silent, and in the end, Song Yuanyang had no choice but to drive Ruojun and Jiaqi back to their home and settle down.
This is their reunion again, and no one expected that the scene of this reunion would be so embarrassing and weird.
"I thought there would be miracles, but miracles don't happen again and again." Song Yuanyang held a pipe in his hand and kept pacing back and forth in the living room.
"Ruojun, what the hell is going on? You two once loved the earth-shattering, and finally reunited, how could this be? Jiaqi said. Mei Ruojun still didn't speak.
"Hey, it's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuchs are in a hurry, what the hell are you doing?" Song Yuanyang took two puffs of cigarette violently: "Love needs courage as support, if you are in love, why not love bravely?" I really don't understand! ”
Jiaqi pulled him and made a look: "Hey, Ruojun is married now, who do you want her to love?" Don't talk nonsense. ”
Jiaqi took Ruojun's hand and said, "Ruojun, even if you and Ruikang are not husband and wife in this life, they are still friends." Why can't love be transformed into friendship? You know, friendship is more stable than love. ”
Mei Ruojun listened to each of them, and paced to the window in confusion, and the weather became gloomy again.
Song Yuanyang hurriedly said: "Then what now?" Ruojun, do you really want to go back to Shenyang? ”
She looked at the clouds in the sky and said softly, "I'm not leaving." I'm going to take care of him. ”
"But he's ordered to be evicted." Jiaqi is embarrassed.
