Chapter 45: Zibai
Yuran was in a trance all day, Fang Ziye never came back, until Fang Ziye got off work in the evening, Fang Ziye still didn't come back, she wandered around for a while and went straight to the hut she rented, just wanted to go upstairs but found Zibai standing at the corner of the stairs smoking a cigarette, if it wasn't for a careful look at her, she could hardly recognize him, then a clean and refreshing man now became haggard and looked sluggish.
"Zibai" she hurriedly walked up and called softly, and a smell of wine came to her face, making her hold her breath.
"You're here, I've been waiting for you for a long time," Yu Ran found the ground full of cigarette butts, "You never smoke." Yuran said with mixed feelings.
"When something changes, everything changes." Zibai said with a wry smile, he moved his numb body only to find that his legs had lost sensation, and the center of gravity of his body was out of control and fell to the side, Yuran hurriedly helped him, "How are you, is there anything uncomfortable." She asked worriedly.
"It's okay, I've been standing for too long and my legs are numb." Zibai stood with her body for a while, and her legs slowly became conscious.
"Let's go upstairs and do it for a while." Yuran helped him upstairs, opened the door to sit on the sofa, and poured him a glass of water. "You sit down for a while, and when your legs are no longer numb, go take a shower and clean yourself up, and I'll go downstairs and buy you a set of clothes." She patiently advised
"Okay." Zibai nodded obediently like a docile lamb.
Yuran prepared everything for him before he went out with confidence, and the tears that he had endured for a long time flowed down instantly, that was the man she once loved, and now how can she bear it because she has become like this, Zibai still loves her, she knows, but he was already married when he disappeared, and he also lost his innocence, and everything could not return to the original state.
She bought a full set of men's clothes for Zibai in the store downstairs, because this is a poor area, so things are not very expensive, she finished the bill and bought fresh ingredients in the supermarket next door before going upstairs, Zibai was still in the bathroom and did not come out, she put things outside the door and knocked on the door, "put things outside the door, take them in and I'll cook them later"
She went to the kitchen to make a pot of meat with her hands and feet, and fried two kinds of green vegetables, both of which are Zibai's favorite food, and when she brought the rice to the table, Zibai was already sitting on the sofa cleanly, his beard had been shaved off, and the whole person looked much more refreshed.
Yuran looked at him with a smile and said, "I like your clean appearance, come over and eat, I made your favorite back pot meat." ”
Zibai glanced at her and walked to the table silently, her mood seemed to be much better.
Yuran brought him a bowl of rice, "Eat quickly, you haven't eaten well these days, right?" I've lost a lot of weight. Zibai took the rice and ate it slowly, "You're in love with my brother," he suddenly said, his eyes didn't look at her, but at the plate of sweet and sour pork ribs.
Yuran was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "How is it possible?"
"Then why are you together?" Zibai clenched his chopsticks and asked coldly.
"Your brother is worried that I will come to you, so he has not let me out of his sight."
"Do you still want to be with me?" Zibai stared at her and asked.
"Zibai." Yuran shouted helplessly, "It's not something I want to do, it's impossible for us to be together." ”
"Why? Don't you love me anymore? ”
"Now what right do I have to love you, you are married, your wife is an impeccable woman, you and I are both kind people, how can you bear to hurt such a woman?" Yuran said bitterly.
"It's all his fault, if it wasn't for him we would be fine, you don't know how much I hate him." Zibai gritted his teeth and said.
"Zibai, don't hate anyone, if hate can make things better, then I hate with you, it's a pity, he can't, we will lose more and more things in hatred and become more and more unhappy."
"Will you still be happy if my life is gone?"
"Zibai, I hope you cheer up, learn to be a good husband, and don't hurt another good woman." Yu Ran patiently comforted.
"Are you really not going to be with me? Even if I'm divorced? ”
"Not really, we've missed it." Yu Ran said affirmatively.
"That's good," Zibai seemed to have made a lot of determination, "Then you promise me that you can fall in love with anyone again, but it must not be my brother, otherwise I will ruin all this, and we will go to hell together." Zibai clenched his fists and said resolutely.
"Okay." Yuran promised in a low voice, "You also have to promise me, cheer up and love your wife well." ”
"I promise you, will I come to see you often from now on?"
"Of course, we're still friends." Yuran said with a smile.
"I'm much more comfortable to be friends with you." A rare smile appeared on Zibai's face.
The two of them chatted while eating, and when Yuran finished cleaning up the kitchen, Zibai had to get up and leave, Yuran told her to be kind to Su Yuan, and Zibai agreed to drive away.
Sent away Zi Bai Yuran returned to the house with heavy steps, she should be looking for a new life like this, sandwiched between the two brothers, she really couldn't bear it.
