Chapter 168: Return
"Yes, get a fake identity for me, I'm going back to China. How much do you want? "Zhou Ruikang is on the phone and doesn't know who to bargain with." No, at this price, I can only pay one-third of the price first, and I can only pay the remaining two-thirds when I get back...... If it doesn't work, forget it, I'll find someone else ......."
"Tuk tuk tuk ......" There was a knock on the door, Zhou Ruikang hung up the phone in his hand irritably, walked to the door, and opened the door, but Cheng Jiaqi was standing there.
"Jiaqi?" Zhou Ruikang was surprised, they hadn't seen each other for a long time after the divorce. "Please come in."
Cheng Jiaqi smiled and nodded. She is wearing a well-tailored suit, exquisite makeup, perm curly hair, very fashionable and elegant.
Ruikang asks her to sit down and asks her what she wants to drink. "Water is fine." She replied.
Ruikang poured her a glass of water, and the two sat diagonally opposite each other, without the relationship between husband and wife, there seemed to be more harmony between the two.
"How are you doing?" Ruikang asked.
"It's fine. No need to be polite, I came to you today to make up for my mistakes. ”
Ruikang didn't speak, just quietly listened to what she had to say.
Jiaqi opened the handbag, took out two letters from it and said, "These two letters, one is written by my brother, and the other is written by Xu Ziyan to you. ”
"Ziyan?" Ruikang's eyes lit up.
"Yes, I told my brother about Hu Xiaofen taking Dingguo to find Ruojun, and my brother was also shocked and blamed me, Ruikang, I'm sorry. It's my ghost. ”
Ruikang closed his eyes slightly, and Jiaqi said again: "My sister-in-law is about to give birth, and my house is far away from Ruojun's shop, so my brother can't watch it every day, so I asked Ziyan, Ziyan was very enthusiastic to help when he heard this, and immediately asked for your Hong Kong address, and wrote this letter to you personally." ”
"My brother also told Ziyan about our situation and about you and Ruojun, Ziyan understands your feelings, I think he can help you go back to China. Let's take a look at the letter first. ”
Ruikang hurriedly opened Xu Ziyan's letter and wrote:
"Ruikang My Friend:
At that time, the hotel has been separated for more than ten years, you and I have intersected in the time of youth, the love is deep, never thought that the world has changed so far, in the blink of an eye, you and I have passed the year of standing.
There are some things that I can't say to you clearly until today, I joined the Communist Party of China long before I entered Peking University, so I have a clear understanding of Xu Manlin's background, and I also wanted to develop you as a party member, but I knew that you were free and uninhibited by nature, so I gave up.
Ruikang, you are a person who pursues ideals, and your ideals are also the goals that our party is striving for, if you return to China and see the vibrant and vibrant new China, you will understand everything I said. Believe me, our country will get better and stronger, just like your impassioned speech on the podium on campus!
Let's talk about personal matters, Yafen and I have three children, a boy and two girls, the eldest is in high school, that is, the one you were still pregnant with when you were in Shanghai, every time I see him, I am very grateful to you.
Ruikang, I didn't expect the story between you and Ruojun to be so tortuous and bizarre, in the past, who is right and who is wrong, it is pointless to entangle and liquidate, and now that you and Jiaqi have ended, it is human nature to want to reunite with Ruojun's mother and son.
Don't worry about the formalities, someone will contact you soon to escort you back to Beijing, and I am waiting to have a good time with you again in the tavern!
Xu Ziyan
……”
Ruikang excitedly held Xu Ziyan's letter and read it several times, firstly because he was about to return to Beijing, secondly because he was about to be reunited with Ruojun's mother and son, and thirdly because he was about to be able to reunite with his classmates and confidants.
He couldn't help laughing: "Xu Ziyan, Xu Ziyan, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect ......"
Jiaqi saw his smile, and was full of emotion, she hadn't seen his smile for a long, long time, his smile was still as bright and charming as the sun, at that moment, she suddenly opened her heart, more than ten years of obsession, more than ten years of grievances, more than ten years of obsession, suddenly uprooted from the bottom of her heart like a broken intestine grass, yes, she never chewed the taste of the broken intestine grass again, she let him go, and also let herself go, Zhou Ruikang, never belonged to herself, she was like the sun hanging high in the sky, brilliant and bright, Hot, that's him, she let him go, and she let herself go......
"Hehe, I'm happy now, I should have gone back together, on the one hand, I broke this disaster down, I should solve this problem, on the other hand, I really want to go back to the campus with you to get together. Cough...... It's just that you are going back this time to reunite with Ruojun after breaking the mirror, one Hu Xiaofen is already difficult enough, if I join again, it is estimated that things will only get more and more complicated. So I'd better wait for you to send me a wedding post, and I'll go back. A pretty smile tugged at the corner of Jiaqi's mouth.
"What wedding card?" Ruikang didn't react for a moment.
"You and Ruojun have been through so much, the children are so old, but they don't have a name yet, why don't you make up a table of wedding wine and invite us?" Jiaqi completely stretched her eyebrows and said jokingly.
"Jiaqi......" Ruikang didn't expect Jiaqi to say these words, and the anger on her face disappeared, and she reopened her cheerful spring breeze-like smile. Do you mean what you say? He sat up excitedly and stared at her intensely.
"Of course, I don't love you anymore, you, don't think that all women will die for you, I'm the first to change my mind about you. Hum! Jiaqi raised her chin slightly, pouted her nose, and said mischievously.
"Haha, this is the Cheng Jiaqi I know." Ruikang was so happy, he bent his eyes and laughed: "I'm so happy, so happy, I'm going to invite you to dinner tonight." ”
"Okay, then I'm going to have the most luxurious seafood dinner."
"Okay."
In this way, Zhou Ruikang and Cheng Jiaqi had dinner together in the best restaurant in Hong Kong, they put aside all kinds of grievances and grievances, and happily talked about all kinds of interesting things on campus back then, and Jiaqi acted as Ruikang's military advisor to remind him of the things he needed to pay attention to after returning to Beijing.
A few days later, Ruikang finally received a letter from Ruojun, and he couldn't help jumping up in the living room of the hotel.
He excitedly opened Ruojun's letter under the lamp, and the first thing that fell out was a black and white photo, seeing Ruojun and Junxiu who were still beautiful and cute in the photo, and Nian'an who bent his eyes and laughed happily, his tears had gushed out uncontrollably, and he cried on the table.
He looked at the photo in a daze, demented and didn't know how long, his finger ran over the portrait in the photo, at this moment, he wanted to go to them more than ever.
Open Ruojun's letter, Juan Xiu's beautiful handwriting:
Ruikang:
I was very surprised to receive your letter, and I was comforted that I had no news of the cabin, and it was also the fruit of my willfulness that day, and I really regretted it in my heart. I know you're all right, and I'm sure you're all right.
You must not divorce Jiaqi because of me, or I will be even more sinful. The so-called marriage is destined, although you and I are deeply in love, but the fate is shallow, Jiaqi is your good partner and good partner, I hope you treat her well.
I'm fine with Nian'an in Beijing, don't worry.
Ruikang, we can't compete with the will of God, but our hearts belong to us, we can quietly, silently, and forever miss each other, and recall the past that only belongs to you and me.
If you ask me if I still love you? I can only answer: "Acacia is cold and dreams together, and the remnants of plum have turned into the mud." ”
I will not forget, nor have I forgotten, Ruikang, you must cherish, promise me, you must live better, only if you live, I can live.
Write to me often to let me know how you're doing, and I miss Ann needing to know what a wonderful father he has.
Ruojun word
……”
Her letter was too short, too bland, he felt dissatisfied, not enough, not enough, obviously she was still very concerned about her marriage with Jiaqi, this stupid Ruojun, he understood why she was so restrained, because she was afraid that Jiaqi would see it and affect her marriage.
Heaven, the letter he waited for more than eight years was so short, so plain, but he was still very excited, "Acacia is cold and dreams together, and the remnants of plum have turned into mud." He casually read her verses.
She dreamed of herself every night like herself, but she was detached, she was out of the mundane...... Could it be that she has let go of this relationship with herself...... No, he couldn't let her go, and he began to get agitated again, pacing back and forth in the room.
He didn't know when the people arranged by Xu Ziyan would come back, he had already packed all his things and was ready to leave at any time.
The days of waiting were difficult, about a week later, sure enough, someone knocked on the door of the hotel, showed a letter with Xu Ziyan's approval, Ruikang was overjoyed, followed the person to leave the hotel, and got into the car......
//
In recent days, across the road from the "Chen Mei Kee Snack Bar", there is often a woman with a cloak, dirty clothes, and a child in her arms, and her eyes always seem to be staring directly at the snack bar.
Mrs. Chen sat at the counter and looked at the woman, shook her head, and said, "This woman seems to have been standing there for two or three days." Don't know what to do? ”
Ruojun didn't pay attention at first, but when he looked up, sure enough, the woman seemed to be staring not only at the snack bar, but also at herself, and couldn't help but feel strange and felt that she was very pitiful.
"I think she's hungry, and she's still holding the baby, it's pitiful, I'll give her two buns." As he spoke, he took two meat buns from the steamer and put them in a paper bag and ran over.
looked at the woman, her facial features were also clear, but her whole body was very dirty, and the child in her arms was thin and small, her face was pale, as if she was sick, her eyelids drooped, and she was listless.
Ruojun handed the bun to the woman, the woman gobbled up the two buns, and didn't thank you, Ruojun looked at the child, the more he looked at it, the more sad he became, and he couldn't help but say: "I see that the child is also hungry, why don't you go to my store and sit down, and I will make a bowl of gruel for the child to eat." ”
The woman just stared at Ruojun in a daze, looking at Ruojun inexplicably, and her eyes were sharp and indifferent, which made Ruojun shudder, Ruojun guessed that she might be a little abnormal in spirit, and she was a little scared to death, but when she saw that weak and poor child, she had a natural inability to ignore it.
With courage, she suggested to the woman again: "I don't think this child is very good, you come with me, let's feed him something first, okay?" Ruojun was bold and tried to take the child from her arms, but the woman suddenly turned her head sharply, glared at Ruojun angrily, frightened Ruojun, quickly withdrew her hand and retreated, but she didn't expect the woman to walk towards the store with the child in her arms......
