"I believe it."

With tears in my eyes, I put my hand on his cheek and smiled at him.

"You know what?"

I was going to say that it was the most beautiful love story I had ever heard, but the louder choking sound drowned them out mercilessly, and they had no chance to be pronounced by me. I didn't even dare to look up at him, but it was the only thing that made the request even more undeniable.

That night, we showed up at the Zhang family banquet on time, the old lady was in good spirits, and Zhang Fusheng was still the same. The wine and food were sumptuous, and the old lady was a little restrained on such an occasion, and she seemed to have never seen such a scene. Next to the servant, there are so many people in the family, she sometimes looks at Zhang Fusheng, frowns herself, and once even takes Zhang Ruolei's hand and asks, Fusheng, who is this old man?

If others saw such a scene, they might laugh, but Zhang Ruolei would not. The family is reunited, all healthy, at least awake, perhaps his long-along, but never able to be realized.

Everyone has their own obsessions, some people are attached to specific money or people who can't get it, or an emotion, I liked huge dolls when I was a child, lying next to it when I slept at night, as if it had real life, and later married Huaihai, when I first got married, I liked to sleep with him, I couldn't sleep without him, sometimes he would return late, and I couldn't sleep if he didn't come back.

And then ......

Forget it, after that, everything changed.

"It's delicious."

I looked up, and there was something more in front of me, like a squid ring, covered in a golden layer of unknown things, with orange ketchup on it.

Zhang Ruolei was looking at me and smiling, I returned with the same smile, picked it up and took a bite, only to know that it was not squid, but it tasted really good, so I praised it from the bottom of my heart.

"It's delicious."

"Eat more if it's delicious."

Zhang Ruolei's father smiled and looked at the two of us to make the dishes, and I nodded in thanks, but I still felt a little reserved. I laughed at myself in my heart, I thought that I was so familiar and would marry into this family soon, so that I would no longer feel panicked, angry, and nervous.

As soon as I raised my eyes, sure enough, I saw the old lady throwing a resentful glance at me again, I quickly retracted my mind, and felt that the old lady's condition may be more serious.

"How's the wedding going?"

Zhang Fusheng asked Zhang Ruolei.

"Hmm...... OK. ”

Zhang Ruolei took a sip of wine, ate a bite of food, and did not forget to praise the person who was cooking next to him.

He was born with a clever mouth, and I sometimes say that he was fortunate that he was not a woman, and if it were a woman, this mouth alone would be enough to turn many male beings upside down.

Zhang Ruolei leaned over to me very lustfully, saying that the function of the mouth is not only to speak, and then look at me thoughtfully. My face was slightly red instantly, and he said that he loved me, and his face was slightly red when he was shy, like an untrained girl.

So I pushed him and said, "Do you have this hobby?" Yes? It turns out that you like untrained girls. Some men are like that,

Like...... Virgin.

I squeezed his chin.

"How? Do you like virgins too? ”

He was all over the place, and I was all too familiar with the smell of every cell in his body.

"I thought it would be until I met you."

Look at me, I'm a woman who is very prone to falling into some kind of secret emotion.

The meal was rare in tranquility and harmony. The old lady did not have a sick attack, did not slap anyone inexplicably, nor overturned the whole table, on the contrary, she ate extremely elegantly, and every bite of food seemed to be a great enjoyment. There is no way to disguise her appetite, she doesn't eat too much.

I think she has been a little bit less clear after coming here, I told Zhang Ruolei to pay attention to the medicine given to her by the nurse, those medicines sometimes affect her appetite, Zhang Ruolei smiled at me gratefully.

"You can also make more soup for her to drink and raise people."

"There's a hostess."

He laughed at me. I glared at him in disgust.

After dinner, everyone sat in the living room and gossiped, and after chatting for a while, we got up to say goodbye.

A perfect family dinner. When I was leaving, Zhang Fusheng got up to see me off, and I asked him to stay, but he insisted on taking a few steps forward, telling me that next time I would bring my mother over, and that the family, especially us old guys, must have gathered once less than once.

These words made him speak calmly, but I still heard sadness in them, so I couldn't help but want to stay a little longer, and remembered my mother again, as if I hadn't seen her for a while, she was alone, and she should be more lonely and boring than Zhang and his wife.

Chinese are most afraid of the bleak evening, we are still stuck in the ideology of raising children and preventing old age, but in fact, who can really accompany whom through loneliness and boredom?

When I went out of the door, Zhang Ruolei took my hand, turned around, and saw a figure standing quietly in an unlit window of a tall building.

No, when we came out, everyone was in the hall.

"Zhang Ruolei,"

I shook his hand.

"Look."

I looked back, there was no one, the window was like a black hole, only the hall on the first floor was still brightly lit.

"See what?"

I felt a chill down my back.

"Maybe I'm wrong."

It's an easily forgotten episode.

A few days later, the Hurricane Group officially visited, the two sides signed a memorandum, and the municipal government officially intervened.

All my previous worries seemed to be too much, but due to the abundant funds, many projects and plans were put on the agenda faster, and Zhang Ruolei and I were even busier, sometimes so busy that we couldn't have a proper meal together for a few days.

Su Shi had no other shocks, only Su's mother had come once, and when she came, she locked herself and Zhang Ruolei in his office, and the two talked secretly for a long time, I don't know what they said, but when the old lady came out, her eyes were slightly red, obviously crying.

I think she is nothing more than thinking of her daughter again, and in this regard, the mother of the world has the same style, I can understand. Zhang Ruolei and I are about to get married, and the relationship between us is really awkward, so it is inconvenient to say more and ask more questions.

I

Still thinking about Xiao Han, she is still in a hurricane. What I miss is that she is there, Zhang Ruolei insists on cooperating with this notorious company, these two people are unprofitable people in the mall, there must be some plot behind it, but I always don't know what that plot is, like an outsider.

It makes me feel uncomfortable, but I can't help it. I think there are many helpless things in life, and it doesn't matter much if there is one more. But there is such an important woman in my life, and it is enough to worry me.

It's strange to say, this city is not small, but it is not that big, and if you really want to meet someone, it really depends on fate. Where is she? A few years ago, she took my husband and ruined my family, and a few years later, I had to guard against it. Can be prevented, how to prevent it? There are some things that cannot be prevented.

There is only one thing that makes me feel a little relieved, that is, there are two people, Zhang Ruolei and Xiao Han, who are in harmony with each other, and maybe it will not put Zhang in the situation that I was very worried about.

Maybe I'm overthinking. No matter how bastard Zhang Ruolei is, he will not ignore his big family business, let alone become a loser, nor will he be ridiculous in his game life.

But life is like this, what is it called? Before the donkey is over, the horse is coming again. One thing relieved me, and immediately another thing filled the vacancy, which came to my mind and made it difficult for me to sleep.

For a while, at night, I would have frequent nightmares, dreaming that I was alone in the community, and I was illuminated by the headlights of a beautiful car, and the air was flying beautifully under the high beams, and my long hair and waist were outlined by the lights. I was in a very happy mood, carrying my bag, playfully entering the community, the security guards saluted me, I turned around and nodded and smiled at them. Then I got home, turned on the light, and heard a strange noise in the depths of the room, a heavy wheezing sound, wandering around the room like a ghost, hitting the cold walls and bouncing back, forming a huge echo.

The space enclosed by steel and concrete became a prison for the sound, and they were eager to try, wanting to run out and scatter happily in the endless sky.

I turned on the wall lamp, the shadow of the wall lamp was blurred on the wall, I didn't change my shoes, the sound seemed to have a magical power, it controlled my every move, the sound of high heels hitting the floor was infinitely amplified, as if every hit was in people's hearts.

Step by step, I approached the truth, step by step, and the road ahead became darker and narrower, and I felt like entering some castle, and there was a wooden door, which I pushed open......

At this moment, I suddenly woke up.

Zhizhi sat up from the bed with a sigh of surprise, panting heavily. Zhang Ruolei was also awakened by me, turned over to me, and lit the bedside lamp.

"What's wrong?"

My back was covered with sweat, and cold sweat climbed over my skin like green vines around the gable.

"It's fine."

He handed me a glass of water, I have a glass of water at the head of my bed all the year round, sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night, feel dry throat, take a sip, and continue to sleep.

I took a sip of water, and the water that had lost its temperature ran down my throat. I caressed my chest.

"How can you have nightmares?"

“

yes, how do you have a nightmare? ”

Zhang Ruolei repeated.

"Isn't it too tired for the past two days?"

He looked at me with concern.

I sat down on the head of the bed.

"Maybe."

Zhang Ruolei also leaned on the head of the bed and stretched out an arm to wrap around my shoulder.

"Don't overthink it before bed."

I took another sip with my glass in my hand.

"No, I didn't think about anything."

He didn't debunk my lies.

I continued to explain.

"Maybe I put my hands on my chest while sleeping."

He didn't answer.

I thought that the dream had passed like that, and I didn't want the same dream to appear again in the evening a few days later, but this time it was much more complete than the last time, and I pushed open the wooden door, and then I saw a naked man and a woman on the bed, and they were entwined on the bed, and their two smooth bodies glowed in the darkness, like two snakes with crossed tails, tightly entwined.
