When Zhou Zhe drove out, Wen Ning had already smoked a cigarette, smoking was learned when she was in France, when she had a car accident and couldn't dance, she hadn't come out of Xu Jiangshu's shadow at that time.

When she was in the hospital, there was a beautiful French woman in the bed next door, who said she was married to a man who loved to drink and would beat her and abuse her every time she came back. So she hid in the hospital and didn't want to go back.

She would show Wen Ning her wounds, which were scarred and wriggling on her skin like worms.

But she never hated the man.

The French woman told her that if life is not what you imagined, you have to learn to change yourself to adapt to it.

She handed Wen Ning a cigarette, Wen Ning hesitated for a long time before picking it up, she smoked for the first time, choking to cure cough.

The French woman was laughing beside her.

"Don't stop, smoke it."

Since then, Wen Ning fell in love with smoking, and the French woman was right, life is like smoking, the first puff is bitter, the second sip is fantasy, and the last sip is reality.

After Zhou Zhe came, Wen Ning raised his hand, and there was still a little spark in his hand.

"Do you mind?" Wen Ning asked.

"Not really, but you should smoke less." Zhou Zhe kindly minded.

Wen Ning sat in the car, looking at the small dust illuminated by the lights in front of her, she said lightly, "Zhou Zhe, let's go to the bar, I want to drink." ”

"Do you want me to answer your questions as a good friend or a good doctor." Zhou Zhe looked at her sideways.

Wen Ning is side face is very good-looking, as if it has been carved by someone. It's a little cold, but it's addictive.

"Is there a difference?" Wen Ning asked rhetorically.

"If it's a good friend, I don't mind if you drink to vent, if it's a doctor, drinking alcohol hurts your legs."

"It doesn't seem to make a difference." Wen Ning took a breath, "OK, then send me home." ”

"Okay." Zhou Zhe replied.

Wen Ning looked out the window, the lights were dim, she hadn't been back to this city for 5 years, and now she had changed when she saw it again.

Zhou Zhe was afraid that Wen Ning would be bored, so he turned on the music.

Tanya Tsai in the music is singing gently.

His appearance has changed

The smell of a new partner

That moment

You've finally found out

The one who once loved dearly

As early as the day of farewell

Disappeared from this world.

She was so engrossed in listening that she didn't come back to her senses when she reached her destination. Zhou Zhe was a little amused when he saw her in a daze.

"Like this song?"

Wen Ning came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly: "No, it's just a little resonant." ”

Wen Ning got out of the car, Zhou Zhe also got out of the car, followed behind him, Wen Ning turned around, put his hands behind his back, tilted his head and asked him, "Why are you following me?" You don't really want to live with me. ”

Zhou Zhe was so amused that his face turned red, and he spoke hesitantly: "You think too much, I just don't worry about you." ”

"What can I do?" After speaking, Wen Ning patted his chest, "The saddest things have passed, is there anything better than rebirth?" ”

Zhou Zhe was infected by her optimism and laughed along.

Zhou Zhe laughed with a shallow dimple, which was very cute, Wen Ning said "huh" when he found it, and then leaned in to take a look. Zhou Zhe was frightened and immediately retreated several meters away from her.

Wen Ning "giggled", and after laughing, she suddenly said to Zhou Zhe very seriously.

"Zhou Zhe, you are a good person. So good people will definitely find what they like. Then he looked up at the sky and found that it was not early, so he said good night to Zhou Ze and went upstairs.

Zhou Zhe was stunned and wanted to say something, but Wen Ning had already gone up the stairs, and only her lonely back could be seen. Zhou Zhe sighed, Wen Ning always made him feel distressed, and he had the idea of protecting her.

Zhou Zhe felt that Wen Ning seemed to be saying goodbye to him, but it was not like it, until many days later, when she never came to rebuild, that he understood that she was really saying goodbye to him.

On the other side, Xu Jiangshu just sent Zhao Jiayue home, he took a shower and sat in front of the computer to prepare for work, all he thought about was Wen Ning's medical treatment, but she didn't want to talk to herself.

He rubbed his temples, a little impetuous.

"Got upset?"

An abrupt voice interjected, Xu Jiangshu looked up and saw Su Ming's smiling face, Xu Jiangshu didn't hold back, and kicked him in the calf.

"Who told you to break into my house?"

Su Ming screamed when he was kicked, covered his calves and began to rub them, and protested dissatisfiedly: "It was you who told me that the key is under the mat outside, and you can come in at will." ”

Then he rolled his eyes, "Could it be that you are hiding people today, who is who, I won't tell Jiayue." ”

Xu Jiangshu sighed after hearing this, then turned his head and continued to face the computer.

Su Ming covered his laptop, "I know you can't work either, I have Wen Ning's latest information here, do you want to hear it?" ”

Xu Jiangshu became interested when he heard this, but he still pretended not to care and asked, "What is it?" ”

Su Ming had already seen through his careful thoughts, and complained about him in his heart, obviously wanting to hear it.

However, Su Ming didn't dare to say it directly, because he would probably take it out and throw it out of the door.

He cleared his throat and said, "Wenning had a car accident in France, which caused her to be unable to dance. ”

Xu Jiangshu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, he didn't think that this kind of thing had happened to her abroad.

In fact, when she left the country, he was also very sad, thinking about whether to inquire about her news abroad, but he was afraid, afraid that she had a new partner abroad.

He thought, since he couldn't give Wen Ning love, it would be better to let her go free.

But this one is 5 years.

"When is it?" Xu Jiangshu asked, his voice trembling a little.

"The first year, then I went to the United States." Su Ming paused and said, "Jiang Shu, do you really like Jiayue?" Like is not a responsibility, you are like this, you will hurt the lives of 3 people at the same time, do you know? ”

Su Ming felt that he was a little nosy, but Xu Jiangshu was his good friend, and he didn't want him to regret it for the rest of his life.

"I see, you go out, I want to be quiet."

Su Ming shrugged his shoulders, knowing that he needed to calm down now.

After Su Ming left, Xu Jiangshu smoked a cigarette, he stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the world, he suddenly remembered the old Wen Ning.

He remembered that Wen Ning used to laugh the most, and those eyes seemed to be able to speak. He remembered what Wen Ning said, she said: Xu Jiangshu, don't lose me, if you lose it, I will let you never find me again.

But Wen Ning, what to do, I seem to be about to lose you.

It has been two weeks since Uncle Zhou's birthday banquet, and Wen Ning has not been out of the house. Xu Jiangcheng didn't contact her either, and Zhou Zhe sent several text messages but she didn't reply. Everything seems to have returned to the calm before I returned home.

Zhou Zhe had told himself before that he should go to rehabilitation and acupuncture regularly, and he should keep going at least once a week no matter how busy he was. She looked at her left leg, which she could no longer dance, and her mind was complicated.

Her parents called her on the second day of the birthday banquet and told her to take care of herself, and she was embarrassed to tell her that many old friends from her father had rushed over, and they might go back a few days later, so that she could ask the driver Lao Zhao for help if she had anything.

She was a little disappointed and a little happy to agree, in fact, she has been away from home for many years, and the biggest miss and support for her is her parents. But when she thought of facing them really, she always lacked a trace of courage, and the events of the year seemed to be a hurdle that she couldn't overcome. She believed that it was also in the hearts of her parents.

Thinking of the words that her mother had been silent for a long time on the phone and finally couldn't help but say, Wen Ning wanted to cry inexplicably.

Mom said, "Xiao Ning, just come back anyway." Let the past pass, we don't want to. In the future, I will live a good life with my mom and dad. My family Xiaoning is so good, she will definitely live happily. In the end, the helplessness and sigh in her tone made her feel distressed.

"Okay, Mom, I'll wait for you to come home." Wen Ning couldn't help but choke up the phone after saying this. She knew that what happened back then was not only a great harm to her, but also an indelible disaster to her family and her parents.

She could not imagine her mother, who had always been proud and elegant, after her cowardly escape. How did they face those ridicule and rumors, and they couldn't imagine how they had lived without themselves in the past five years.

This makes her unable to forgive the two people who caused harm to her family five years ago, but she can live happily in this world. Even if you can't change anything, you always have to make their lives not so smooth, and you should get some interest back for your life in the past few years.

So when she learned about Zhou Zhe's identity and his feelings for Zhao Jiayue, she deliberately approached him and thought of using him to take revenge on them. In the dining room, she didn't expect to face them so quickly. But noncommittal, the undisguised panic on Zhao Jiayue's face pleased her.

After that, she and Zhou Zhe went to the banquet together, but she didn't expect that it would be herself who ended up embarrassed. Seeing the familiar and natural movements of the person you once loved sitting on another woman.

No matter how stimulated by this, Wen Ning couldn't deceive himself. She looked at Zhou Zhe's sincere concern for her, and the guilt that suddenly surged up made her feel how naïve her thoughts were.

So she gave up the psychology of revenge, and planned to completely let go of this relationship and let go of Xu Jiangcheng, although it was difficult for her to do it.

The doorbell remembered and interrupted Wen Ning's inextricable thoughts, it was Aunt Qin, a part-time worker invited by the family, Aunt Qin is a very enthusiastic person, although she has a bad appetite recently and doesn't eat much, but she will still change her tricks to make it for her, and Wen Ning can't face her kindly. So, he smiled and opened the door for her.

"I'm sorry, Miss, I forgot to bring the key today." Aunt Qin smiled at Wen Ning and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay." Wen Ning smiled back.
