Chapter 112: You are her proud existence
On the big night, Xu Wei was still wearing sunglasses to cover his eyes, he saw Lu Li, and walked over directly to hug her, and Lu Li's eyes turned red instantly.
Xu Wei didn't say anything, he hugged this child who he grew up with, and he didn't know what he could do to really comfort Lu Li.
In the end, it was Lu Li who said first, "Uncle Xu, I didn't expect you to come, it's good to see you." ”
Lin Lin turned sideways and looked at the mountains in the distance, he felt that Lu Li was really willing to see Xu Wei at this time, he knew how much the friendship between Xu Wei and He Linxi, Xu Wei was half of He Linxi's family.
If he can come, it will definitely help Lu Li's emotional stability.
When Lu Li pulled Xu Wei to get into the car, Xu Wei suddenly asked, "What about your father, I said that he would pick me up, I thought you came together, why didn't you see him." ”
Lu Li didn't speak, Xu Wei looked back at her, "What's the matter, something won't happen to your father." ”
Xu Wei now felt that he was the frightened bird, he received a call, and knew that the unreal feeling when He Linxi crashed was coming again, but don't have any more accidents.
If Dad has another accident, he will destroy Lu Li's child, how can she stand it.
"Let's go back to the hotel first, I have something to tell you." Lu Li avoided the question of Lu Guowei's whereabouts, pulled Xu Wei to the side of the car door, opened the car door and asked Xu Wei to get in the car.
When Lin Lin drove them back to the Qibao Hotel, Lu Li stood still as soon as he got out of the car, Xu Wei didn't know what was wrong with her, he looked at Lu Li's face nervously, and asked her if she felt uncomfortable.
Lu Li shook his head, his eyes looked in a certain direction, but he still didn't speak.
Lin Lin also looked in the direction she was looking, and quickly reacted, he whispered to Xu Wei, "She's looking at the location of the funeral home." ”
Needless to say, Xu Wei understood at once, he looked at Lu Li distressedly, walked over and followed her to look in the same direction, wanting to say something, but opened his mouth and swallowed it back.
"I asked the old man here, and said that when he was doing the aftermath, every night before the sun went down, he had to go and deliver food to the people who left, and if he didn't go, the people who left would have to go hungry all night...... Uncle Xu, I found out too late today, I didn't have time to deliver food to my mother, my mother ......"
Lu Li's throat was stalked.
Xu Wei's eyes covered behind his sunglasses were misty, and he desperately endured it, "Lu Li, don't think about it......"
"My mom, she's going to be hungry tonight, let's lose weight, she often skips dinner, I'll bring her breakfast tomorrow morning." Lu Li said, the corners of his mouth tugging at the corners of his mouth.
She also tried her best to hold back her tears.
When Xu Wei heard her say this, tears welled up in his eyes, and he tore off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and cried directly.
The man's cry through the endless vicissitudes of life sounded particularly sad, and the two people who were about to enter the hotel looked at Xu Wei without knowing what happened to this tall old man.
Lin Lin took a deep breath hard, his eyes were aimed at Lu Li, who was still looking at the direction of the funeral home, and he was very worried that her emotions would collapse with Xu Wei's collapse.
What he feared didn't happen.
After Xu Wei's crying gradually weakened, Lu Li walked over with a calm face, raised his hand to learn from Xu Wei's example, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "It's okay to cry, Uncle Xu, let's go in, let's go see my mother together tomorrow morning and bring her breakfast." ”
Xu Wei sobbed and nodded.
——
When Xu Wei washed his face in the bathroom of the room, he saw a WeChat message from Lu Guowei on his mobile phone, and Lu Guowei said that he suddenly had something and couldn't pick up Xu Wei, and he couldn't come back tonight.
"What else is more important now than accompanying your daughter and dealing with the aftermath of Linxi, what are you thinking?" In the WeChat reply of Lu Guowei, there was anger that could not be concealed.
He put his mobile phone heavily on the table, turned his head to look at Lu Li who was sitting on the sofa, Lu Li was also looking at his mobile phone, and she told Xu Wei that Lu Guowei sent her a >
"Your dad is busy with something big." As soon as Xu Wei's temper came up, it was not easy to suppress it.
Lu Li raised his eyes and looked at Xu Wei's angry face, "I don't know, I didn't ask." Uncle Xu, do you know that my parents are going to divorce, I found out on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I went through the formalities. ”
The anger on Xu Wei's face suddenly weakened, and he looked at Lu Li frowning and sitting on the edge of the bed, "They didn't tell me, they already told you." ”
Hearing this, Xu Wei should have known the decision to divorce one step earlier than himself, and Lu Li lowered his head again.
The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward, and neither of them spoke.
When they were silent, Lin Lin in the opposite room was answering the phone, the call was from the Qi Bureau, Lin Lin rubbed around his eyes, which were very tired due to severe lack of sleep, and listened quietly without a word.
A minute later, after Qi Ju fed him, Lin Xiao spoke softly, "I'm listening." ”
Qi Ju on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what do you think of what I just said." ”
Lin Lin continued to rub his eyebrows, his eyes began to cry with soreness, he reached out and pulled a tissue and pressed it on his eyes, closed his eyes and leaned his head on the back of the chair, "Do you have to go over quickly?" The work I'm in charge of here isn't completely finished, and it's a job that can't be taken over by someone else. ”
"I know, I've consulted your master on professional matters," Qi Ju paused before he said again, "Is it okay for three days, I know that you're finishing the process over there, and I don't need to say anything more about how important the things I said need you." ”
Lin Lin Lin tore off the tissue stained with his tears, and the tissue fell on the carpet at his feet without a sound.
"Lin Shi, if you have any difficulties, you can directly say it, and I will do my best to help you solve it." Qi Ju waited for a while and didn't hear Lin Lin speak, so he added another sentence.
Lin Lin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, "Three days will definitely not work, there is a very important occasion after four days on my side, and I must be present." ”
He knew that He Linxi's funeral ceremony was scheduled to be held four days later, because of the long distance and other reasons, the cremation could only be carried out in Qibao Town, and he wanted to stay by Lu Li's side all the time.
Qi Ju was a little surprised, "What important occasion?" ”
Lin Lin briefly told Qi Ju about the accidental crash of He Linxi's aerial photography, and finally hesitated for a moment, and added, "This female director's daughter is a very good friend of mine, and I don't want to leave when she needs someone to accompany her the most." ”
“…… Tell me the truth, it's a girlfriend? Who do you want to pursue? Qi Ju asked the bottom of the question, which was in line with the professional habits of her job.
Lin Xiao pulled the corners of his mouth, "Neither." ”
Qi Ju was silent for a few seconds, "After five days, this is the limit of what I can do, do you need any help from there, I can arrange it." ”
"No, you don't."
"Lin Lian, you answer this...... Kind of promised me? Qi Ju wasn't quite sure if Lin Lian's simple two-word answer just now was the same as she thought, and she needed Lin Lian to answer her more certainly.
"Yes." Lin Xiao said, bent down to pick up the paper towel on the ground, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash.
——
At around five o'clock in the morning, Lin Lin was woken up by a knock on the door.
He walked to the door barefoot, and before he could ask who was knocking on the door at this time, Lu Li's voice had already sounded outside the door, "It's me, can you open the door?" ”
Lin Li's mind cleared up suddenly, he immediately opened the door, and there was Lu Li, who was also barefoot, standing at the door.
"I dreamed of my mother, I kept arguing with her, and I said a lot of ugly things, my mother was told that she cried, but I didn't cry......" Lu Li said when he saw Lin Lonely.
Lin Lin looked down at Lu Li's bare feet, and just as he wanted to speak, Lu Li suddenly rushed towards him, threw himself into his arms, grabbed Lin Li's exposed arm with cold hands, and cried.
"My mother said she wouldn't forgive me, so I didn't have to bring her breakfast and dinner, what should I ......do?"
Lu Li's cry had its own sound amplification effect in the quiet hotel corridor in the early morning, and Lin Li's eyes turned red when she heard her cry for the first time.
He raised his hand and put his arm around Lu Li's shoulder, lowered his head and whispered in her ear that it wouldn't be just a dream, and while comforting, he hugged Lu Li into his room, and closed the door with his hand.
Lu Li didn't say anything, he lay on Lin Li's chest and kept crying, and the tears soon soaked the front of the pajamas that Lin Lin was sleeping on.
Lin Lin let her vent her emotions, standing motionless in the center of the room with her in his arms, and it took a long time to hear Lu Li's cry fading, and then he raised his hand and touched the back of Lu Li's head, hoping that this would comfort her.
After crying so much, Lu Li calmed down a lot, and the heartbreaking scenes in her dream faded away, and she realized that she had been crying for so long, lying on Lin Li's chest.
Lu Li knew that he had lost his temper, so he quickly removed his head from Lin Lone's chest, and looked at Lin Lone with empty eyes.
Lin Lin looked down at her slightly, "Do you want to wash your face?" ”
Lu Li looked at him with wet eyes, he had no strength to cry too hard, and he didn't even answer him at once.
"Then I'll get you a wet towel and wait for me." Lin Lin asked tentatively, and seeing that Lu Li had no objection, he turned around and walked quickly into the bathroom, and quickly took a towel wet with cold water and walked out.
He handed the towel to Lu Li, "Sit down first, it will be better to wipe your face." ”
Lu Li took the towel and rubbed it perfunctorily on his face, his eyes didn't look at Lin Lone, he sat on the chair with his eyes distracted, and he felt like he was still trying to distinguish something.
Lin Lin didn't talk to her much, just sat next to her and watched her, waiting for her to ease up.
After about ten minutes, Lu Li's eyes gradually became bright, she picked up the towel in her hand and wiped it on her eyes a few times, and whispered sorry to Lin Li.
"Are you better?" Lin Lin also asked her softly.
"Excuse me, I'm fine, I'm going back." Lu Li apologized again, got up and prepared to go back to his room.
Lin Xiao sat still and looked up at Lu Li slightly, "I'm fine, I'm awake anyway, if you don't want to sleep, just sit down and talk for a while." ”
Lu Li sat back and looked down at her bare feet, although she had been away from Lin Li's arms for a while, she could still feel the solid sense of security just now, which also made her feel embarrassed now.
They are not in a relationship where they can hug intimately, but they hug him and cry for so long regardless of it, it's too embarrassing.
Lu Li knew that the pain of losing her mother, which she had been holding on to in the dream just now, had completely exploded.
She can pretend to be calm and indifferent in front of others, and even in front of her father and Uncle Xu, she can hold on and not fully reveal her true emotions, but the dream just now brought the fear, sadness and helplessness in her heart because of her mother's death to her face, and the first time she woke up, she wanted to see Lin Lone.
just wanted to tell him what she dreamed of, and her emotions were vented in front of him again, and the whole person was empty in front of him.
"What are you thinking?" Lin Lin saw that Lu Li was alone and didn't speak, so he tried to find a topic to talk to her.
Lu Li's eyes raised, "I'm regretting, regretting why I was so ...... Bad, I quarreled with her when she was still there, she was no longer in my dream, I still quarreled with her, I just couldn't control myself, I was too much. ”
Her eyes began to heat up again as she spoke.
"Don't say that about yourself." Lin Lin comforted her, wondering how to most appropriately and effectively appease Lu Li's emotions.
Lu Li took a breath, his voice choked, "It's just that I'm not good, really, I didn't understand until she had an accident, it was me who wasn't good enough." ”
Lin was silent for a moment, "Director He will never look at you like this in his heart, when I first met your mother a few years ago, she was very proud to tell me about you, I still remember the look in her eyes at that time, it was not a feeling of dissatisfaction and resentment towards her child, you are in her heart...... It's her proud existence. ”
His words made Lu Li even more sad after hearing it, but deep down he felt more calm, Lu Li lowered his head and held back his tears, and also suppressed one of his impulses at the moment.
Lin Lin said again, "When Director He said that his daughter had chosen the same career as her, his eyes were full of satisfaction and relief, and I was thinking when I saw it, Director He's daughter, whom I had never met, must be a very good girl...... After meeting you in Irbin and knowing who you are, I knew my instincts were right. ”
Lu Li looked at Lin Lin in a panic.
Lin Li's face became solemn, and he added, "Lu Li, you have to redouble your efforts to do a good job in the profession you have chosen, and you have to show your achievements to make Director He proud of you in a down-to-earth manner, and work hard, okay?" ”
Lu Li repeatedly smashed Lin Li's words just now in his heart, and began to feel that he had found the feeling of being relieved.
She looked at the traces of Lin Lone's pajamas that were wet with her tears, and she especially wanted to do something.
Lu Li wanted to let himself be like just now, and then return to that generous and down-to-earth embrace, being hugged by him in his arms, gently caressing the back of his head with his palm, and saying to himself in his ear, "That's just a dream, it's not real." ”
But you can't do that.
In a thousand times, the time was already half past six in the morning, Lin Liding's alarm clock rang, and Lu Li finally returned to reality, stood up and really wanted to go back to his room.
Lin Lin didn't stop her again, remembering that Lu Li and Xu Wei made an appointment to go to the funeral home together this morning last night, and he also made an appointment with Lawyer Han to go to the detention center together, and everyone had their own things.
When Lin Lin opened the door for Lu Li to send her out, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a person standing at the door of Lu Li's room, and when he heard the sound of the door, he turned his head and looked at the two of them.
It was Lu Guowei, who had not shown up yesterday.
