CHAPTER XXIII
The thunder was getting closer and closer, and I don't know when the wind would start to blow, nor was it as gentle as it had been, but it became rapid and violent.
Yan Muqing closed the window, blocking the wind and noise outside the window. Looking through the window, the neon lights are still flashing, and the pedestrians on the road are not so leisurely, and they all speed up their pace to go home.
The branches of the small park downstairs have also changed from swaying at the beginning to the current demons dancing, blowing confetti and gravel, hitting the windows and rustling.
Yan Muqing is not a hypocritical person, she has been alone for so many years, and she has long become immune to these thunders and nights. From the beginning of hiding in the quilt and shivering, now leaning on the window, enjoying the scene of the storm coming.
Independence makes a woman strong, and loneliness makes a woman stronger.
In fact, where there are people who like loneliness, but they don't like to be disappointed.
I don't know how long I was in a daze, but when I came back to my senses, the tea was already cold, and I took a big sip to calm the heat in my heart.
The rain was coming, and the rapid, dense raindrops hit the windows as if they were about to break them.
It is said that people in the middle of the night are the most emotional, of course, Yan Muqing also sent some sour sentences in the middle of the night, but at this moment, she is very sensible, without the irritability and restlessness of the day, she seems to have figured out something for a while.
Turn around and go to wash, it's better to rest early, after all, no matter how unwilling she is, but for Lu Anming, she is just a passerby.
Everything was packed up, it was already in the hotel, opened Weixin, and sent a circle of friends.
"Some disappointments are inevitable, but most of them are because you overestimated yourself"
Zhang Xiaoxian's words.
After typing this line, after sending it, the mobile phone was thrown to the bedside at random, and after a while, the WeChat prompt sound rang one after another.
Yan Muqing glanced at the phone and didn't pick it up. picked up half of the "White Night Walking" and continued to flip it, a mystery novel and a hopeless but persistent tragic love story, a little melancholy to read.
I was a little bit of a cloudy mood, but now I'm a little uneasy.
Hey, I didn't look at it, I clipped it with a bookmark, turned off the lamp, and fell into darkness, listening to the wind and rain outside the window, and it was impossible to sleep peacefully.
"Jingle Jingle Bell" I don't know who called so late.
She felt that it was definitely not Lu Anming.
In the dark, the flickering mobile phone screen is very dazzling. opened one eye and swept to the screen, it was Tang Tianhao.
"Hey, squad leader," said lazily.
"Qingqing, I haven't been in touch for a long time, how are you doing?" came a burst of soft music from the earpiece.
"Tomorrow Monday, you're still out on the waves, and you're going to be late tomorrow," Yan Muqing began to preach.
"Don't talk about me, let's talk about you" Tang Tianhao paused for a moment and continued, "You are older than me, and you forget me when you fall in love?" How long has it been since I got in touch," Tang Tianhao complained about Yan Muqing's crimes.
"Who always contacts you as an old man, Sister Man?" I don't want to dwell on this topic with him anymore, maybe she has fallen out of love. Quickly change the subject.
"She's next to her, do you want to have a conversation?" While chatting, Tang Tianhao forgot the purpose of calling Yan Muqing.
Well, because the topic shifted to the master Yan Muqing.
"Wait a minute," said Tang Tianhao and gave the phone to Shen Man beside him.
Shen Man took the phone and gave him a blank look, "I won't ask if I ask"
"Hey, Qingqing, you haven't slept yet" Shen Man chatted for a few words, asked about the current situation, and then cut to the topic.
"What's going on with your circle of friends, it's related to Lu Anming?" Because I watched a lot of them show affection in their circle of friends before, they all felt that they were getting along very well, but today they suddenly swiped a circle of friends like this, and these people are a little uneasy.
Yan Muqing sighed lightly, "Lu Anming is missing", and then told Shen Man about today's situation.
"It's too much, what kind of friend are you" Shen Man was also very angry when he heard this, and spread his anger on Tang Tianhao.
Tang Tianhao spread his hands and shrugged, indicating that he didn't know anything.
Then Shen Man began to enlighten Mu Qing again.
"Maybe it's a matter of the unit, don't think too much, after all, Haozi hasn't known him for a day or two, and he still has a trust in his character, let's see if there is a letter tomorrow, let's make a decision."
It is said that it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage. Yan Muqing and Lu Anming came all the way after everyone watched, and it was a pity that they decided to separate so hastily.
"I know, Sister Man" Yan Muqing didn't want to speak at this time, nor did she want to talk about any topics related to Lu Anming.
Shen Man also heard her lack of interest, and offered to come over to accompany Yan Muqing, but Yan Muqing refused. After a few more words of relief, he hung up the phone.
There was still wind and rain outside the window, and Yan Muqing didn't know how he was feeling at the moment. The authorities are confused, the bystanders are clear, the insiders are not as clear and thorough as the outsiders, and the outsiders have not experienced the insiders' mental journey, and they must not be able to experience their inner suffering!
It's a bad feeling.
Li Nianci and An Xiaoya also called one by one to ask, and from Yan Muqing's words, it could be heard that she was in a very bad mood now, and she was about to break out! The two said that they wanted to come over to accompany him, but Yan Muqing refused. She wanted to think quietly for herself.
In fact, Yan Muqing's self-healing power is quite strong, and if she wants to figure it out, it's nothing, hey, I was completely sleepy by one or two phone calls, but my heart is still warm.
Although Lu Anming's inexplicable disappearance made her very aggrieved and unhappy, but think about it now, the two are not married after all, and they have not met their parents, even if he really does something unseemly, he doesn't need to report it to her!
I closed my eyes hard and forced myself to sleep, but the more I thought about it, the clearer the past came to mind.
I don't know how long it took, Yan Muqing didn't know if she was asleep or not, half-asleep and half-awake, she felt that Lu Anming had called, but when she connected, she couldn't speak. Open your mouth hard, know the action of opening your mouth, but you can't make any sound.
She clenched her fists hard, trying to lift her arms, knowing that she had the action of raising her arms, she was like a bystander, and she put it as if it was out of her body, and the other stood on a high place, looking at herself lying on the bed, her head "buzzed", and the darkness was infinitely magnified, like a black hole, trying to suck her in.
She admits that she is a little scared now, and she also knows that this is a nightmare, and there is only one way to solve it, and that is the sound around her, even if it is just a trace of sound. She breathed hard, cold sweat covered her forehead, and she could even hear her own breathing, heavy and rapid. Like a fish out of the water, lying on a dry riverbed, its gills are one by one, waiting for a life-saving water source.
"Ring~Ring~" The piercing mobile phone ringtone rang .......
