Chapter 69: No Way Back
(sixty-nine)
Lin Tingfeng didn't embarrass her much, and for a few days in Hangzhou, he accompanied her every day like a nobody. If she was reading in the study, he would read the newspaper on the side, quietly, without talking to each other, which was also very beautiful. Sometimes Ye Wenyu would peek at him through the book, he knew that she was looking at him, but he still pretended to be fine, just through the cover of the newspaper, a trace of laughter lines appeared at the corner of his mouth, or there was a smile under his eyes. But Ye Wenyu couldn't see it, he used the newspaper to cover his face like an umbrella, he observed her from the top of the newspaper, and saw that her little face was getting redder and redder, like a newly blooming rose.
If she was in the garden watching the gardener prune the flowers, he would stand aside and talk to the gardener, and sometimes when she was in the mood to plant the flowers herself, he would stand aside, and he would be tall, and he would bend down and hand her a flower shovel, for he was too tall, but like a child playing with mud, there was a strange warmth.
If she watches TV on the sofa in the living room, he sits aside and makes a few phone calls to the group, she is fascinated by watching Korean dramas, Japanese dramas, and American dramas, while he directs the group's affairs through a mobile phone, and the workaholic image is complete. Sometimes, the TV series is too boring, Ye Wenyu can't help but move her eyes to him again, the appearance of a man who is devoted to his career is simply not too charming, he sometimes turns around and doesn't intend to see it, she immediately panics and doesn't turn her face away, but her face burns red for no reason.
Sometimes she didn't do anything, just in the garden gazebo looking at the flowers and grass in a daze, he would come over and take the initiative to talk to her, seeing that she didn't seem to want to talk more, he would be silent and leave very gracefully, looking at his mobile phone, or reading a book and making a phone call.
He seemed to be a little nervous and hesitant about something, and his heart seemed to be a little chaotic, and he didn't want to talk to Ye Wenyu more than he wanted to talk to Ye Wenyu.
Living in a big villa in Hangzhou, eating, wearing, living and traveling, there are people waiting, Ye Wenyu feels that she lives like a rich lady, she has never had such a luxurious life, she only feels that everything is like a dream.
During this time, her mother called her and asked if she was sick. Ye Wenyu received a call from her mother and was reading a book in the study, which was Duras's "Lover", which read, "My mother struggles with discouragement and disappointment every day. In the photo of me when I was four years old, my mother already showed the exhaustion of life. She was majestic, rough, and wore a dress like a big pocket. Despite the utter despair, the yearning for happiness in life is still so strong. Ye Wenyu thought, this is more like her mother.
She thought of her mother, who had been sick for more than a month, and she hadn't contacted her for a long time, and she didn't know how she was doing. Ye Wenyu thought about making a phone call to her mother, just at this time, Zhang Susu's phone came in, Ye Wenyu picked up the mobile phone and looked at Lin Tingfeng who was sitting silently reading the newspaper, she walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the study and connected the phone, her mother asked her if she was in good health, she reported good news and said that her body was better, and now she is studying at school, in fact, she has been delayed for more than a month, and will continue to delay.
Lin Tingfeng glanced at her, didn't say anything, and continued to read. Next, her mother began to talk about the hard but happy life she married Ye Wenyu's stepfather, the central idea is that although she doesn't have much money and her life is stressful, her stepfather and stepfather's two children are very good to her, she is not unhappy, the only worry is her daughter, but she is also powerless, so she can only call and care.
Ye Wenyu was a little sad when she heard the back, so she didn't want to talk any more, her mother's phone reminded her again and again that she had no way back, and her life was still the same as before, not that living in this luxurious villa with Lin Tingfeng could change her birth, and a person's original family could never get rid of it, she had no choice.
Mother's phone call pulled her back to real life from a beautiful dream, if she goes back to school, she is still the poor student, she has to work hard to make a living, she will be tired and sick again because of multiple jobs, this time lucky, Lin Tingfeng will pick her up from the wind and rain, next time, will she have such luck?
She thought of her poor mother, who had worked hard for most of her life, and the two of them depended on each other for their lives, and brought her up with hard work, in order to provide her with education, she cut down on food and clothing, and never lived a happy and comfortable life, and finally managed to get her admitted to college, she was finally freed, sold her house and remarried, and pursued her own happy life.
But after remarrying for more than half a year, is she happy?
After several phone calls between mother and son, Ye Wenyu learned that her mother's happiness was very reluctant, and her mother was tired every day for her new home and two unrelated children.
The two children are now in junior high school and high school, both boys, and they will go to college in the future, then find a job, then buy a house, start a family, and then have children, and the mother's life is an endless hard labor, until her mother can take care of the new home at that end and have the spare strength to take care of herself, it is almost impossible. Instead of pinning your hopes on your mother, who is too busy to take care of herself, you should also hope in yourself.
She is a poor child with better luck, she has an adventure, and she met Lin Tingfeng, who is blue-eyed to her, although he makes her afraid, but it is an indisputable fact that she likes him.
Ye Wenyu's thoughts fluctuated, and when she heard her mother still chattering on the other end of the phone about how she would cut down on food and clothing to pay off the mortgage every month, Ye Wenyu interrupted her and said, "Mom, I'm fine, I'm going to class, you don't have to worry about me, I can take care of myself." ”
Her mother breathed a sigh of relief and immediately hung up the phone.
Ye Wenyu picked up the phone and sent it for a while, then slowly turned around, returned to the sofa in the study and sat down, picking up the book in her hand, but the words on the book seemed to have life, beating in front of her eyes, and she couldn't stand it at all.
How can she live a better life? If you don't make changes, then it's just the reincarnation of your mother's life.
However, she didn't want Lin Tingfeng to find out what was on her mind, so she still held the book.
How much does Lin Tingfeng know about her? She loved this person, however, because so much had happened, she was a little scared.
The reason why she was scared was because she couldn't see through him, Ye Wenyu peeked at Lin Tingfeng through the cover of books, she thought to herself, if he really built a villa for her as he said a few days ago, he liked her and loved her, then, in the past half a year, he has behaved so capriciously, a person can control his feelings so well and hide them so deeply, then this person, she is not his opponent 100%, so she is afraid of him.
