Chapter 186: The Helpless Road of Life

They kissed for a long, long time, as if they wanted to make up for all the time they had missed. He hugged her, closed his eyes, and said repeatedly in intoxication: "Zhi Aijun, Zhi Aijun, Zhi Aijun...... Forever ...... forever"

She threw her body into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"Jun ...... No...... Good ......"

"Nonsense, Jun is the best, no one can compare to you."

"Jun ...... Ugly ......"

He looked at her seriously and combed her short hair a few times with his fingers: "Ruojun, I love you, you are beautiful." I know these words, many people have said them to you, but I will use practical actions to show you that I am not lying. ”

She looked at him with tears in her eyes, she knew that he would not break his word, she knew that their lives were locked together. She smiled and snuggled into his arms, and said softly, "Jun ...... Love...... Zhi ......"

Although she stammered, staccatock, and slurred her speech, he felt that it was simply the most moving natural sound. He hugged her and said with a little choked up: "Don't worry, I will make you fat, I will cure you, and our family of three will live a good life in the future." ”

"Such as ...... Ru ......" Ruojun raised his eyelashes and looked at him worriedly, not knowing how to solve Mengru's problem.

Shu Zhi pinched her chin and smiled, "Who told you not to tell me earlier?" It's a bit of a hassle to clean up the mess now. ”

Ruojun frowned worriedly. He hugged her completely in his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, I'm not married yet." Everything is still saved. ”

Meng Shuzhi held her shoulder tightly and asked seriously, "Ruojun, are you willing to marry me?" Be my wife and let me take care of you for the rest of your life. ”

Ruojun stared at his deep and dark eyes, which were so bottomless, so charming, she smiled and nodded, simply happy like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. He smiled and kissed her again.

Shu Zhi hooked her chin, looked at her fixedly, and said, "Ruojun, it's certain that I will hurt Mengru, but I can't make the mistake of Brother Ruikang again." We'll leave tonight! ”

Ruojun's eyes widened and she looked at him incredulously, she thought she had misheard, she thought she had misunderstood. But he was so determined, he looked at the alarm clock on the table, and said, "Pack up our things immediately, let's leave with Nian'an, go to the hotel next to the train station to spend the night, and take the train to Shenyang early tomorrow morning!" ”

Her eyes widened and she blinked at him.

"Since you promised to be my wife, you naturally want to go home with me. Won't you come with me to your mother-in-law's house? There was a smile in his eyes. Actually, I wanted to go back for a long time, I wanted to see if my Meng family's mansion was still there, and to see if there were any family members who survived, but I couldn't let you go. ”

Ruojun has infinite tenderness in his heart and smiles at him.

Maybe her mind is still confused, or maybe her mind has never been clear, in short, although she has lost a lot of memories, her heart has become simpler and lighter.

The two said they would move, picked up the suitcase and began to pack their luggage, Nian An was surprised and happy when he heard that Ruojun was going to marry Shu Zhi, this was something he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Shu Zhi picked up Nian An and kissed him and said, "What are you going to call me in the future?" ”

Nian An laughed: "I've thought about it for a long time, I already have a father, then you are my father." ”

Shu Zhi also laughed.

Shu Zhi left a letter to Xu Mengru and handed it to Mrs. Chen. The letter did not write anything, but only told Xu Mengru that he could not marry her, and he had decided to leave Beijing with Ruojun's mother and son and go back to Shenyang.

Ruojun and Mrs. Chen hugged goodbye tightly, Mrs. Chen was moved by tears, sighed and shook her head: "Hey, that's fine, maybe all the past is for today's result." ”

Yes, as a bystander, Mrs. Chen is also an understanding person, no matter how much she hopes that Zhou Ruikang will come back to reunite with Ruojun's mother and son, it is just hope, no one knows when Zhou Ruikang will come back, and everything Meng Shuzhi did to Ruojun in front of him has also proved that he has the ability to give Ruojun a home, maybe not the best, but the latest, the simplest, and the most realistic.

Ruojun went up to the small attic for the last time, looked around carefully, and when she turned around, a picture suddenly flashed in her mind, she was spinning, the skirt on her body was flying with the spinning, and a man was looking at her with a relieved face, her heart ached, as if millions of volts of electricity were flowing through......

But that picture flashed by, and Ruojun wanted to remember it again, but he couldn't remember it.

//

Zhou Ruikang did not attend Jiaqi's wedding, but only gave a delicate gift, a collector's edition of Italian hand-carved sterling silver tableware.

On the third day after Jiaqi and Liang Zhihong got married, the couple specially invited Ruikang to their home for a gathering.

Liang Zhihong didn't expect Zhou Ruikang to be so elegant and handsome, and his bearing was extraordinary, and Zhou Ruikang didn't expect Liang Zhihong to be so mature and witty, magnanimous, and very personable and polite to his ex-husband.

After greetings, the three chatted a little, Cheng Jiaqi had fashionable and beautiful curly hair, wore an elegant sea-blue embroidered cheongsam, and walked to the living room with a plate of cut fruit, put it on the wide glass coffee table, and put a few small white porcelain plates, each with a small fork.

"How about it, can today's lunch still enter the mouth of the second young master of your Zhou family?" Jiaqi said with a smile, and glanced at Ruikang.

Ruikang smiled, "Okay, yes." ”

"Guess who did it?" Jiaqi elegantly folded her arms around her chest, tilted her chin slightly, and had a confident smile on her face.

Ruikang looked at her and smiled, "It can't be you!" You used to burn braised pork to the level of black charcoal. ”

Jiaqi laughed "poof": "Hey, you know what it means to be impressed by Shibei for three days, today's lunch is all made by me." ”

The three of them laughed, and Liang Zhihong said with a smile while opening a champagne: "Jiaqi learns quickly, and her current skills are almost as good as those of French chefs." ”

"Boom~~~" Liang Zhihong opened the cap of the champagne bottle and poured the golden wine into the goblets of the three.

Ruikang picked up the wine glass and glanced at Jiaqi, her face was ruddy, as bright as the morning glow, her face was happy and vibrant, and she was also very happy for her, looking at Liang Zhihong and quipping: "To be honest, how much of her black food have you eaten?" ”

Liang Zhihong said with a smile: "Haha, in short, I didn't eat less, but Jiaqi's progress is so fast, now she can even make cakes." ”

Cheng Jiaqi took some pineapples and lychees for Ruikang, and some pears and melons for Liang Zhihong, sat down next to Liang Zhihong with a wine glass, snuggled up to her husband and said: "Zhihong is not as picky as you, my level can't serve you." You can only let a mortal fairy like Ruojun serve you......"

As soon as she spoke, she quickly stopped, she originally wanted to make a joke, and her heart knot with Ruikang and Ruojun had already been opened, but seeing the trace of loneliness floating on Ruikang's face, she knew that the wound in his heart was still dripping blood.

Ruikang took a sip of champagne, evoked a smile, and changed the subject and said, "By the way, where are you two newlyweds Yan'er going to spend their honeymoon?" ”

"We went to Thailand for three days, and the company's business was busy." Jiaqi said.

Liang Zhihong took her hand, looked at her affectionately and said: "No matter how busy the business is, let them wait a few days, how can our honeymoon be so short, you are enough for me." Seven days, let's have a good time. ”

Jiaqi patted him lightly and said in surprise: "How can this work, Mr. Zhang's mansion, the interior decoration of Yaxin Company, Boss Wu's storefront, so many things, how can you delay......

Liang Zhihong bent his eyes and smiled, with a few faint crow's feet at the corners of his eyes: "Before you got married, you were afraid that I only worked and didn't live, but now you are more workaholic than me." Don't worry, I've already proofread their drawings, and the terms and conditions have been negotiated, just let Mary, Xiao Dong, and Xiao Wang follow them, you, just follow me for a few days, Mrs. Liang. ”

Jiaqi looked at his face, the two looked at each other affectionately for two seconds, Jiaqi laughed, grabbed her husband's arm, snuggled her head on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, listen to you." ”

Liang Zhihong smiled happily and sweetly, while Zhou Ruikang watched from the sidelines, only to feel that he was completely superfluous, a person from another world.

Cheng Jiaqi looked up at the lonely and embarrassed Ruikang, sighed in her heart, and secretly pulled Liang Zhihong's sleeve, Liang Zhihong looked at her, then looked at Zhou Ruikang, nodded and said, "Let's talk, I'll go to the study to read the contract." ”

Saying that, Liang Zhihong got up and left, leaving Zhou Ruikang and Cheng Jiaqi in the living room.

Jiaqi sat beside him and looked at him carefully, his complexion was not very good, and his expression was lonely.

"Ruikang, I already know about Beiping, and Yafen has already written to tell me." Jiaqi rubbed her hands together and said, "This is all my sin, if I hadn't told Hu Xiaofen Ruojun's address, or the tragedy wouldn't have happened." I really feel guilty, I'm sorry, Ruikang. ”

Ruikang drank all the champagne: "Forget it, it's all over, even if Hu Xiaofen doesn't make trouble, I will be sent back, and Ruojun and I can't be reunited." His brow furrowed, and he pinched the corners of his eyes with his thumb and forefinger.

"Friend, I don't want to see you so painful, Ruikang, we have all experienced the great changes of the times and life, the past cannot be traced, I used to be obsessed with the love for you, persistence, is the heaviest mountain in the world, is the heaviest shackles in the world.

The love between you and Ruojun was not tolerated by the world from the beginning, after hardships, and was swallowed by the great waves of the times, standing in the position of friends, to be honest, I feel sad and emotional for what happened to you. I used to be very jealous of Mei Ruojun, but now, I really hope that you two can finally get married. Ruikang, believe me, if there is the slightest possibility, I will help you. ”

Ruikang lit a cigar and shook his head: "Every brief reunion between Ruojun and I means that there will be a long separation, and each separation will be longer than the last, which seems to have become a fixed pattern in my relationship with her. Especially this separation, I always have a feeling in my heart that it will be a very long time. ”

"Ahem...... Ruikang, haven't you ever thought about letting go of this relationship? You are only 36 years old, you are in the prime of your life, there is still a long, long way to go in the future, if you let go of this relationship, depending on your conditions, you can find a partner and a home at any time. ”

Ruikang exhaled a puff of smoke, put one hand in his trouser pocket, and looked out the window with a confused look: "I can even give you up, how can I find a partner to live with?" You know me, I'm a man who lives in dreams. ”

Jiaqi also walked to the window, stood side by side with him, and sighed: "Yes, maybe life is imperfect, you have outstanding appearance, extraordinary courage, and superhuman luck, and huge wealth, but you can't get your love." ”

A helpless smile rose at the corner of Ruikang's mouth: "I have already figured this out, but I would rather not get it than give up, I will freeze her in my mind." ”

"By the way, how is Mei Ruojun recovering now?"

"She was able to walk, but she still couldn't speak fluently, and there was still her memory...... She can't seem to remember who I am. ”

"What? How so? Your relationship with her is so unforgettable, how can she not remember you? Shu Zhi: Did they mention you to her, read your letters, or show her your pictures? Jiaqi asked urgently.

"Not only Shu Zhi, but also Nian An, Ziyan, including Jia Wei, at first she would shout and cry as long as she heard my name, and the doctor had to order me not to mention my name again, not to read my letter again, now she is recovering well, they tried again to make her remember me, but she didn't respond." His brow furrowed even tighter, and he took a deep drag on his cigarette.

Jiaqi also frowned, shook her head, and was puzzled: "How can this be?" ”

Ruikang pinched his forehead and said bitterly, "Maybe she doesn't want to remember me at all." ”

"How so? No, Ruikon, no. She loves you so much, I remember when I was in Chongqing, she sat in the bamboo forest outside the 'Homesick Garden' every day in order to see you, with the child on her back, waiting for me to go out, as soon as I went out, she knelt on the ground and begged me to let her in to see you......" Jiaqi sighed: "She can even let go of an excellent man like Ding Xiaohui, just to come to see you, how can she not want to remember you......"

Smoke came out of Zhou Ruikang's mouth and nose, he looked at the sky, and said quietly: "Because I am the source of her pain." Without minecraft, it would make her feel relaxed and free. ”

"God, it's so cruel, it's too cruel." Jiaqi turned and sat down on the couch.

"This separation may be ten, decades, or even a lifetime...... Maybe that's a good thing for her. ”

Both of them were silent, under the sun, Zhou Ruikang's side face was like a sculpture, *, deep, melancholy, handsome, but it made her want to cry, she felt sad for the first time for the love between Ruikang and Ruojun, felt helpless, and felt regretful, especially now that she has Liang Zhihong's love, think that if she had agreed to divorce Ruikang earlier, she might have fulfilled herself and Ruikang.

But there is no if in the world, and there is no regret medicine, everything is a foregone conclusion, Ruikang's tragedy is doomed, and Ruojun's suffering has also been staged.

"And what's next for you?" Jiaqi asked frustrated and weak.

"I will take Dingguo to the United States for treatment first, and I may stay in the United States for a while. Then I went back to the UK and took care of my business. Mainly the work of charitable foundations. The rest, I think, may be memories. ”

Jiaqi sighed: "Okay, Ruikang, no matter where you go, don't forget to write to me, as well as my brother, Ziyan, and of course, Ruojun." She held his hand, her eyes were red and said, "Write to her, write to her, I believe that one day she will think of you, one day you will be reunited again, and this reunion, you will never be separated again." I don't believe God could be so cruel. ”

Zhou Ruikang looked at her gratefully: "Thank you, Jiaqi, I will." ”
