Chapter 281: Ordinary Points
Apologize? What apologies?
Zheng Mu was confused, he quarreled with the guests in the factory at noon, his face was red, he drank some wine after being fired, and the money on his body was only enough to buy a bottle of Erguotou, and he slept until the afternoon. When his cell phone rang, he woke up from his dreamless sleep, and when he looked up, he saw that he had fallen from the bed to the ground, and his arm was numb.
It was dark outside the window, and it was already evening.
Who is nervous and calls himself at this point? Dad or Mom?
Picking up my phone, it was an unfamiliar number. He hung up in a dizzy state, and not long after he was back in bed, the phone rang again, and he snatched the phone and cursed.
The other party's first sentence choked him.
"It's me, Su Xin, let's talk, okay?"
All right? This is an extremely gentle question, and if you can hear it from Su Xin's mouth again, Zheng Mu really feels that he still hasn't woken up.
"Remember the old noodle shop? At half past seven, I'll be waiting for you there, okay? ”
Another question, Zheng Mu almost cried, this voice was as gentle as an oasis in the desert. He replied in a daze, and pulled out the neatest clothes from the cupboard, and washed the oily hair. When he looked in the mirror, he could barely recognize himself, and he didn't shed a tear anymore.
Looking at Su Xin, who was red-eyed in front of him, Zheng Mu had mixed feelings in his heart.
"It's in the past." Zheng Mu breathed a sigh of relief and exhaled a long breath, but felt a little unwilling.
"It's not about time, I have to admit my mistakes, it's to make amends, it's for the future." Su Xin raised his head and stopped sobbing, "I may be glamorous in front of my current friends, a girl with a gentle smile, but once I take off my mask, my past is like a ghost floating in the cemetery inside me, wandering aimlessly, occasionally hitting a wall, causing me to be scared and sad, just like the day I met you again." ”
This is too literary, Zheng Mu thought, it is not a loss to go to high school.
"Don't write too much, I don't understand." Zheng Mu said.
A smile like ripples on the surface of the lake spread across Su Xin's face, as if a wind was blowing through the ends of her hair.
"A girl told me that even though I ended up falling off a cliff and breaking my bones, like a broken log floating in a torrent, I still couldn't ignore the beauty of the past; And a boy told me that running away is not the way to solve it, it will only lead you to the end, and the nightmares of the past will also find you inadvertently, if you don't want to regret it, you have to solve it yourself. ”
"You mean to solve me?" Zheng Mu pointed to himself unhappily.
"Oh, why don't you understand what I'm saying!" Su Xin pursed his mouth, and then exhaled a dry breath, "What I'm afraid of is that I decided to break up with you back then, in a wrong way, without saying goodbye, and directly treated you as a stranger, hurting you!" In that past, I made mistakes that always made it difficult for me to look at them directly, and that was a thorn in my eye, and I want to pick them out now! Solving it, the sign of solving it, is that you can truly forgive me. ”
Su Xin bowed again, and this time, her forehead, which she didn't raise, was almost touching the table.
Zheng Mu was stunned, he had never experienced such a formal and literary way of apologizing, the apology he knew was to pay the bill, it was a hangover, it was blowing cowhide into the sky, it was himself who vomited in the dim light, and collapsed on the street to sleep and catch a cold. When I woke up, I was fine.
"This ......" Zheng Mu scratched his head, trying to speak more cultured, but the pressure made him hot, and he held back for a long time, and he still couldn't find some noble words in his head, but he couldn't bear to keep Su Xin keeping his head down. Eventually, he gave up, "I don't blame you. ”
Su Xin raised his head, smiling with tears in the corners of his eyes.
"Really?"
"It's impossible not to be angry, my dad said...... Buying and selling ...... No, no, oh! Benevolence and righteousness are there! It's supposed to describe business, but I think it's appropriate to use it here. Yes, when you suddenly ignored me, I was stunned, and I went to look for you at the school gate, but you ignored you. I can't find you when I go to the bubble tea shop I go to, you don't reply to the message, and the phone is blocked, it's really ......" He gritted his teeth angrily, grinding it so much that it clicked, "I was so angry that I almost found someone to come to your house to 'reason'." Even if it's a breakup, is there really such a silence? I have no experience, and I went to the Internet to search: ways to break up. ”
Su Xin burst out laughing.
Zheng Mu didn't provoke him, laughing at himself for being stupid to the sky.
Those times, at this time, seemed beautiful and pure, far away.
The two ordered another pot of tea, this time it was the authentic Longjing, the smell of brewing was refreshing, and the smell of wafting out was dyed all over the air in the house.
Of course, the price also makes people's hearts tremble.
"I'll pay!" Zheng Mu pressed the bill, took out his wallet tremblingly, thinking that the money owed to his roommate should be owed first, and the face of this thing cannot be lost at this time.
"Then you're welcome." Su Xin poured out the tea.
"How did you suddenly think you were looking for me?" Zheng Mu blew the tea leaves and saw Su Xin's puzzled face, "Oh, I mean, that day, that day, that day in the park, I have always been unfriendly to you, and I was angry at that time, so ...... You haven't contacted me either, so how can you ...... now?"
Su Xin scooped half a teaspoon of sugar into the teacup, I don't know where this is the new way of drinking tea, Zheng Mu thought he was a turtle, and didn't dare to ask.
"Because today."
"Today?"
"Hmm......" Su Xin's spoon stirred in the teacup, and the whirlpool kept spinning, "Today, I realized a truth, missing out is the most regrettable thing in the world." Whether it is missing a person, an opportunity, or a landscape, it is a regret in life. The boy I'm talking about...... He and another girl have had a crush on each other for many years, by accident, they have had countless opportunities to be together, but recently, they almost got stiff and broke off the relationship, maybe they won't be able to be together again in this life......"
A hint of wanting to get back together flashed in Zheng Mu's mind, and he immediately smiled bitterly. No need, between them, even if it is possible, there is no need to hold on, even if he falls asleep with his memories, he doesn't want Su Xin to drown in his muddy waters again, she deserves a brighter future.
"You like him?"
Su Xin's eyes were full of loneliness, and he shook his head.
It seemed that he couldn't answer this question right, so Zheng Mu thought about changing the topic.
"Now...... We're friends, aren't we? ”
"Forget it, do you want to be friends with me?"
"Don't be good friends."
"Well, it's normal, it's pretty good."
Zheng Mu took a sip of tea, strange, no sugar was added, but he also tasted sweet, with a long fragrance.
"How's it going? What about at home? Is Auntie okay? ”
Su Xinnu mouthed: "Fortunately, my mother has been really hard lately, she needs to work two jobs, and the relatives at home are always clamoring to take back our house." ”
Zheng Mu felt that he had bought the right order, "House? ”
"Yes, it's a quadrangle."
"Wow!" Zheng Mu's eyes glared at the boss.
"It's a yard where our family of three has lived for more than ten years." Su Xin's eyes were firm.
Zheng Mu suddenly shut up, he knew about the situation in Su Xin's family, her father died early, and it was for this reason that she had a junior high school time, and her personality was more fierce than herself. The meaning of this is that he has no intention of transferring the courtyard, although this is a loss-making transaction in his eyes, but Su Xin is definitely not willing.
"The house isn't yours?"
"Dad's will has not been found yet, and the law stipulates that it be transferred to my mother and me, but the gang of people in the family will not let us go, and they will find trouble for us in different ways." Su Xin's hand squeezing the teacup tightened.
"Wills? Still have this thing? ”
"Of course, my dad writes a good hand, but I can't find it."
"Can't find it? When? ”
Su Xin glanced at him, and then continued, "In the days when my father was critically ill, the will had already been written and kept under his pillow, just ...... Later, it was gone. ”
Zheng Mu's brows furrowed, "That...... Will, what color is it? ”
"Color?" Su Xin raised his head and thought, "Yes...... The color of the parchment paper is the ordinary kind of office envelope, and the inside is the will. About ......" Su Xin used two fingers to compare the size: "It's so long." "The distance between her two index fingers is about 20 centimeters.
Zheng Mu's mouth opened slightly, and his face was serious as if he remembered something. He sat up straight, lowered his head as if he was struggling with something, and remained silent.
"What's wrong?" Su Xin asked, her heartbeat speeding up for no reason.
"Actually...... There's one thing I never told you, because at that time, we had already broken up. So ......"
"What's the matter?"
Zheng Mu made up his mind and exhaled, "One day, when your father was still in the hospital, I went to the hospital to look for you." But you weren't there, through the glass, I only saw two people in the ward, and it was naturally your father lying on the bed. ”
"And then?" Su Xin's voice trembled a little.
And then ...... I saw that your dad was asleep in bed with his head tilted to one side. The man next to him carefully put his hand under his pillow and pulled out a letter, which was the color of parchment, like the color of a bamboo tissue, and he put it in his pocket, looking ...... Sneaky. ”
He ...... Who is he? Su Xin was furious, and his lips were trembling.
"I don't know." Zheng Mu was so frightened by her appearance that he leaned back, "I just know that he is wearing a neat suit, very tall, very strong, with a combed back and shiny hair, like a rich man." ”
Su Xin took out his mobile phone, and his fingers quickly rummaged and tapped on the screen.
"It's not him!" Su Xin showed Zheng Mu the photo in his mobile phone, and through the afterglow, Zheng Mu felt Su Xin's murderous gaze.
Zheng Mu glanced at it twice and nodded: "Yes, it's him, that's right!" ”
Su Xin's eyes were blank, as if the light escaped from her eyes in an instant, leaving no mercy, all occupied by rage and anger, as if the other party would turn to ashes after being watched for a long time.
is such a pair of eyes, staring at the person in the photo with resentment - Su Jiamu.
