Chapter 60: Long Time No See
That night, the front page headlines of major media news were the news that Gu Yan's mysterious girlfriend appeared and the two were about to get engaged. The number of clicks has caused a number of media websites to be paralyzed, and everyone began to dig deep into who the girl in the photo is, and Mi Chongyuan was actually doxxed by netizens very smoothly. Then she became the target of public criticism, and was scolded by Gu Yan's fans, and there were even paparazzi and fans wandering at the door of her house, and Chongyuan, who was scared, hid at home and didn't dare to go out. She didn't dare to answer the calls from Liu Jiaqi and Wei Ziyi, because she didn't know how to explain the matter.
It wasn't until the Ye family's car came to pick her up for her grandfather's birthday party that she went out for the first time. Mi Chongyuan, who was sitting in the car, felt dizzy, and she hadn't slept well at all these days.
As soon as he entered the door of the Ye family, Mi Chongyuan saw the glamorous Su Wanwan, because a girl like her was the focus of everyone's eyes no matter where she was.
Su Wanwan was obviously shocked when she saw Mi Chongyuan, she thought that she would not come to the birthday banquet after saying those words to Mi Chongyuan, didn't she have any shame at all?
In fact, Mi Chong was originally invited by her grandfather, and she felt that it would be very bad if she refused. And Ye Siran was not there, she was only here to congratulate her grandfather on his birthday, and she didn't come to find Ye Siran, so she was calm in her heart, so she didn't take Su Wanwan's words seriously.
Seeing Mi Chongyuan, her grandfather happily stood up to greet her. In addition to missing her, inviting Mi Chong to the birthday banquet was also for Ye Siran. He once thought that the two of them would be together after graduating from high school, but he didn't expect that his grandson was so stupid, and the girls he liked wouldn't chase him, so he couldn't wait for his granddaughter-in-law after waiting for so many years, so he had to go out in person.
My grandfather smiled and said, "Xiao Yuan is original, great, come and sit here with my grandfather." ”
Mi Chongyuan obediently sat down beside his grandfather, and the briquettes immediately came over. At this birthday party, my grandfather didn't invite many people to come, and all the people who attended were close family members. And Mi Chongyuan didn't know anyone except her grandfather, but fortunately, there were briquettes with her, and she was reluctant to let go of the briquettes, she really missed it.
My grandfather touched the scarf that Mi Chongyuan gave him and liked it very much, and said with a smile: "I really like the scarf that Xiao Yuanyuan knitted by himself, and my grandfather will wear it every day in the future." ”
My grandfather rarely received gifts made by others, probably because the people around him were too good at making money, so they didn't have time to make things for him. The last time I received a biscuit made by Mi Chongyuan, it was a sweater knitted for him by Ye Siran's grandmother. My grandfather put the scarf around his neck and was reluctant to take it off.
Looking around the banquet hall, my grandfather said to the housekeeper, "What about Si Ran?" Call him. ”
Mi Chongyuan was shocked, he came back? Didn't Su Wanwan say that he was still in the United States? Her heart was full of panic, she was not ready to see Ye Siran, she didn't know what to say or do, and her mind was blank.
The moment he saw Ye Siran walking into the banquet hall, Mi Chongyuan's breathing almost stopped, his blood coagulated instantly, his hands and feet were cold, and only his heart was pounding fast.
Time seemed to have stopped, Ye Siran's gaze could no longer be taken away from Mi Chongyuan, and she seemed to be the only one in the huge banquet hall, which was so unreal. Ye Siran didn't think that Mi Chongyuan would come, so his shock was no less than that of Mi Chongyuan, but soon Ye Siran suppressed all his complicated emotions, walked up to Mi Chongyuan, and said to her gently: "Long time no see." ”
Mi Chongyuan also pretended to be calm and raised his head to look at Ye Siran, and said to him, "Long time no see." ”
In the past ten years, the two of them have a lot to say to each other, a lot of feelings to express, a lot of questions to ask, and a lot of things to understand, but all they can say at the moment is this simple sentence that I haven't seen for a long time.
Mi Chongyuan lowered her head to hide her tears, this is why she didn't want to see Ye Siran, she finally built a high wall to surround her heart, deceived herself and others, thinking that all this was okay, but the moment she saw him, she fell apart and was at a loss.
Ye Siran didn't speak, and stood there fixedly. No matter how well he hid his emotions, the look in his eyes at Mi Chongyuan revealed everything. Mi Chongyuan lowered his head and didn't see it, but his grandfather saw it clearly. He said to Ye Siran: "Siran, there is Yuan Yuan's favorite red velvet cake on the table in the courtyard, you take her to eat." ”
……
At this moment, there were only two people in the courtyard, Ye Siran and Mi Chongyuan, because their grandfather had ordered no one to disturb them.
Ye Siran cut the cake to Mi Chongyuan, gently placed it in her hand, and then handed her the fork.
Mi Chongyuan kept his head down, not daring to look at Ye Siran. When she saw the fork handed over by Ye Siran and the silver ring on his slender finger, she couldn't help but feel a throbbing pain in her heart. Her hand trembled a little, and she took the fork, picked up a piece of cake and put it in her mouth, but she felt that it was all bitter, and she could no longer taste the sweetness of the cake.
Ye Siran asked Mi Chongyuan softly: "How have you been doing all these years?" ”
Mi Chongyuan nodded: "Well, it's good." ”
"Wanwan told me you were getting engaged." His voice was a little tight and a little astringent.
Mi Chongyuan clenched his fork with his fingers, not knowing how to answer, so he was silent.
Ye Siran didn't ask again, just looked at her quietly. He felt that no matter what, it would be good to have this moment of time together, and he was very content. Even if it is only a few words, it has survived the ten years of waiting.
Mi Chongyuan silently finished the cake, and then said to Ye Siran, "I'm leaving." ”
"I'll send you."
"No need." Mi Chongyuan refused.
"If you don't want me to send it, I'll ask the driver to send you."
"I want to walk on my own."
Ye Siran knew Mi Chongyuan's temperament, so he didn't say anything and relied on her.
……
Mi Chongyuan walked alone on the way down the mountain, and he could finally let the tears flow. Thoughts were like a tide, sad and sad, all turned into tears that kept sliding down his face. Like a deserter who lost her armor, she fled alone from the place where there were painful memories, and escaped from the person who made her heart ache.
She usually likes to wear flat shoes, but today she specially wore high heels for her grandfather's birthday party. But she didn't expect to see Ye Siran, let alone walk down the mountain. At this moment, the constant pain in her feet made her even more embarrassed. Frustration came over her all at once, mixed with sadness, and she was exhausted. Mi Chongyuan took off his shoes, squatted on the ground, hugged his knees and silently wept. She felt so bad, so stupid, and so a failure. At the age of twenty-nine, but she can't do anything, she has nothing, she must be the worst person in the world.
Suddenly, Mi Chongyuan felt someone squatting down in front of her and gently touched her head. She looked up and met Ye Siran's beautiful eyes. Mi Chongyuan was stunned for a moment, and then stopped his tears, and his useless pride began to work again, not allowing himself to shed tears in front of him.
"Why are you crying?" Ye Siran asked her gently. He didn't worry about Mi Chongyuan going alone, so he kept silently following her, but he didn't expect to see her crying, he was very distressed.
Ye Siran's concerned appearance made Mi Chongyuan suddenly think of how nervous and worried he used to look whenever he found her. Maybe it's this kind of gentle care that gives her a little delusion, a little bit of expectation, maybe he likes her too? But now she felt that she was really stupid, why should she let herself be trapped, she couldn't escape.
"I'm fine, I'm a little tired from walking, take a break." Mi Chongyuan replied.
Ye Siran smiled, as if he saw the stubborn little girl again. He picked her up and walked slowly down the hill, as he had carried the wounded little girl home many years ago.
Mi Chongyuan gave up resisting, and lay on Ye Siran's back exhausted, she was so tired, so sleepy, she really wanted to sleep on such a gentle shoulder.
Time seems to have gone back to ten years ago, nothing has changed, he and she are there, and their hearts have not changed......
