Du Chenyu drove the car in front, I sat in the back in a trance, looking at the scenery outside the window that was thrown behind the car, my heart was mixed, mixed feelings, the lady's words were still in my ears: You died of this heart, I am glad that I have sent it abroad.

I couldn't believe that the noble lady would be so vicious, she used all her scheming to destroy the relationship between me and Xue Xinyan, I lowered my head, took out my mobile phone, found Xue Xinyan's phone number, and dialed it, "Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off." ”

I opened WeChat again, clicked on Xue Xinyan's chat box, and typed: Xinyan, where are you, call me back when you see a message.

Du Chenyu observed me in the rearview mirror, and said in a flat tone: "Wang Tao, why are you so persistent, you can still get a sum of money if you let go early, enough for you to live for the rest of your life, why do you want to fall in love with such a person?"

After I heard it, I actually felt that this sentence was so ridiculous, the mountains are edgeless, the heaven and the earth are combined, and he dares to be with the king, is his heart iron, there is no human touch at all, give me a bunch of money, live unhappy, what's the point.

I pulled the corners of my mouth and sneered, and said to Du Chenyu: "Haven't you ever loved someone, you evaluate me from the perspective of a bystander, you will never understand my feelings at this time, not everything can be solved with money." ”

Du Chenyu didn't have any expression on his face after hearing this, just drove quietly in the car, and after a while, he said: "Xinyan has been sent away, Mrs. is very strict with her guards, even I can't go to visit, I don't know where I was sent to, so you still have this heart, don't love a flower." ”

I was speechless, and thought to myself that this old witch was simply incomprehensible, and that in order to prevent us from being together, since she had imprisoned her own daughter, such a mother, should not have recognized each other in the first place.

The more I thought about it, the more my head hurt, and I rubbed the back of my head wrapped in gauze with my hand, and it was a pain that pierced my heart when I touched it, and I frowned, and my mind couldn't calm down for a long time.

Du Chenyu looked at me in the rearview mirror and said, "If you had caught it earlier, they wouldn't have fought hard, and you still found it yourself." ”

When I heard this, I was indignant, and glared at him with cold eyes, "No matter what the final result is, I will never surrender to that old witch, and you don't think that beating me will deter me." ”

Du Chenyu's expression was still unwavering after hearing this, and he said calmly: "I have followed my wife for many years, I know her character very well, no matter what method she wants to do, even if it is indiscriminate and shady means, she will try to promote it, so I still advise you not to compete with her, otherwise you will suffer in the end." ”

When I heard this, my fighting spirit was burned, and I said to Du Chenyu coldly: "Hmph, let her use all the means, I'm not afraid of her." ”

The car pulled up in front of the yard, I got out of the car and the Land Rover turned the corner and disappeared.

I haven't come back for a few days, and the yard hasn't changed much, the only thing that has become is that Brother Scumbag's clothing has increased again, and the big cart has been completely unloaded, and he piles the excess clothes on the aisle in the basement, which is particularly inconvenient to walk.

As soon as I opened the door of the basement, the phone rang, I took it out to check, it was Zhang Xueyao calling, I answered.

"Hey, Xue Yao"

"Are you back?"

"Well, I'm back, I just got home, by the way, did you come to my house to look for me a few days ago?"

"That's right, I asked Sister Zhao for your address, and I went to look for you, who wanted to meet an uncle with a scrambled beard, he said that you were not there, and I would leave."

I laughed and said, "That's the scumbag, my roommate"

"Are you still coming back to work, if you want to come back, I'll say hello to Sister Zhao, and you will be able to come to work in a few days."

After I listened, I thought to myself, Zhang Xueyao has interceded for me in the past few days since I left, plus I just went to report and didn't take up my post, so I frequently asked for leave, and I was a little reluctant not to go, if I could go back, of course, it would be good, but I still had to trouble Zhang Xueyao to intercede, and I always felt a little guilty.

"Hey, Wang Tao, are you listening, hey"

"Uh, Xue Yao, if you can go back to work, then you can tell Sister Zhao for me, I, I'm embarrassed to go to her."

Zhang Xueyao's hearty laughter came from the other side of the phone, she said: "When you are still embarrassed, how are you going out this time, are you happy with your girlfriend?" ”

Of course happy, climb Mount Tai to visit Qufu, if it weren't for the noble lady to send someone to stir up, I was going to go to Laoshan to see the Taoist priest, I was angry when I thought about it.

I smiled and said, "It's a lot of fun, it's a wonderful world outside." ”

There was silence on the phone for a while, and Zhang Xueyao asked again, "Is your girlfriend coming back with you?" ”

I deliberately wanted to avoid this problem, because when I thought of Xue Xinyan's tearful appearance, my heart hurt as if it had been cut by a knife.

Seeing that I didn't answer the question, she changed the subject and said, "Come out, eldest son, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

"How embarrassing is this, you helped me say all the good things for Sister Zhao, I should invite you."

"One yard to one yard, last time you helped me, I promised to invite you to a big meal, but I haven't had a chance, don't talk nonsense, I'll pick you up later."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

I sat on the bed with a wooden expression, there was a feeling of lovelessness, Xinyan didn't know where to go, this was the biggest hurt and blow to me, I took out a cigarette, lit it, the smoke ring slowly floated in the small space, and finally disappeared into the dim air.

Zhang Xueyao said that it was there, she parked the car at the gate of the courtyard, honked the horn, I woke up from my contemplation and walked out in a hurry.

She painted a light smoky makeup today, her beautiful eyes are longing, graceful, her eyes blink and blink, very playful and cute, and the crescent-like willow eyebrows have a bewitching atmosphere.

She sat in the car, saw that I had gauze wrapped around my head and hands, and asked, "Are you fighting with someone else again?" How can you travel and still be like this? ”

I smiled bitterly: "I accidentally fell, it's not a big problem, where are we going to eat?" ”

Her delicate lips exuded a charming luster, and she was wearing a red professional suit, pursed her lips and said, "I haven't thought about anything to eat, do you want to eat seafood?" ”

I rubbed my nose and looked at her and said, "Okay, listen to you." ”

The car was driving on the spacious road, Zhang Xueyao was in a good mood, humming songs all the way, her smiling eyes flickered, with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her temperament was quiet and sultry.

The car was parked in the parking lot of a seafood restaurant, and after listening to the car, Zhang Xueyao suddenly said: "My parents have been talking about you, and you have to go there if you have time." ”

I was a little surprised when I heard it, I was obviously going to deal with it last time, but I really can't do it if I want to fake it.

I hurriedly asked her, "Didn't you just say that you can help you cope with the past, why do you still want to see me?" ”

Zhang Xueyao glanced at me, pouted her seductive red lips and said, "There's no way, my dad likes you very much, if you don't want the matter to be exposed, let's go for a trip, and you won't lose anything." ”

I was a little short of breath after hearing this, and I didn't know what this girl would say to her parents when she came home and told her, since she had repeatedly asked to meet.

The decoration of this seafood restaurant is very simple, and what catches the eye is its signboard, the seafood shop of Binpeng from all over the world, which is very meaningful.

Zhang Xueyao and I pushed open the turnstile and walked in, and a waiter greeted me very politely, looked at me with a smile and said, "Welcome, are there only two of you?" ”

I smiled and nodded, the decoration style of this shop is very retro, very similar to the restaurant in the Song Dynasty, each private room is surrounded by a red rosa tent, the bottom of the sand tent hangs a few sachets, the red luo fu bucket tent, the four corners of the hanging sachet, this poem is very appropriate.

The store has a wide range of seafood, including mussels, sea melon seeds, cockles, oysters, hermit crabs, mud snails, snails, snails, squid, octopus, jellyfish, and bergamot.

Zhang Xueyao and I walked into a private room, which was clean and tidy, and the environment was elegant, which was very suitable for two people to chat.

I glanced at the menu and ordered a spicy stir-fried clam and braised prawns, and Zhang Xueyao ordered spicy river crab and steamed fish with chopped peppers.

The waiter took the menu and left, Zhang Xueyao looked at me and said, "Why don't you take the time to go to my house these days, my dad puts pressure on me every day, and I can't help it, I promise it's the last time." ”

After speaking, she raised her little white hand with an oath.

I said helplessly: "Miss, what you said, the last time, if you go again, I promise to show my stuffing." ”

She nodded excitedly.

After the dishes are served, I can't wait to taste them, these dishes are attractive in color, appetizing, full of umami after the entrance, fragrant and fresh, really delicious in the world.

I said to Zhang Xueyao: "The things made in this shop are really good, do you often come here?" ”

Zhang Xueyao was fighting with a prawn, her mouth was full of oil, and the dark yellow sauce stuck to her white and tender face, completely ignoring her image.

She took a sip of water, wiped her mouth with a napkin and said, "It's my first time here, too." ”

Zhang Xueyao laughed at me and said, "Look at what you eat, it's like you've been hungry for years, you haven't eaten for a few days." ”

I looked at her and said, "Your image is not much better." ”

She sent me to the gate of the courtyard and told me, "I'm asking for your last love, and this time you can't miss the appointment and wait for my call." ”

I said a bunch of thanks, and then said goodbye in a hurry.

I sat in the yard and drank a big scoop of cold water, I wanted to go back to the house to sleep, but the phone rang again, I took it out to check, it was a WeChat video call, Qin Xiaolan sent it, I was busy answering.

Qin Xiaolan's round face came from the screen, her face was covered with tears, her expression was haggard, and she was sobbing for a while.

Seeing this, I hurriedly asked her, "Xiaolan, what's wrong with you, what are you crying about?" ”

She wiped her crying red eyes with a tissue, sobbed and said, "The boyfriend I made is going to break up with me, and he has two girlfriends outside, who have already blatantly interacted with me, completely ignoring my existence." ”

After hearing this, I was instantly angry, angry, and said cruelly to the screen: "This grandson is simply shameless, damn, I really want to beat him to relieve my anger, you should break up with him quickly, such a scum is not worth your crying for him." ”

"I'm reluctant, he's usually very good to me."

"Miss, what's wrong with you? It's not like your style of acting, when you keep suffering from it, don't you understand, it's hard to recover. ”

Only then did she see that I had gauze wrapped around my head, so she stopped crying and asked curiously, "What's wrong with your head?" Did you get into a fight with someone? ”

I told Qin Xiaolan about what happened to me and Xue Xinyan in the past few days, and after hearing this, she frowned and thought for a while, and then asked me: "Then you can't hit people no matter what, why don't you call the police?" ”

I felt bitter in my heart, looked at the screen and said, "I want to too, but I don't have a chance, that old witch is too insidious, since she has installed a tracker in Xinyan's mobile phone." ”

Qin Xiaolan sighed after hearing this, she thought for a while and said, "Then, where is Xue Xinyan now?" ”

When it came to my sore spot again, I said in frustration: "I don't know, the old witch said to send her abroad, I called her mobile phone to turn off, and she didn't reply to WeChat, probably because she changed her mobile phone." ”

"And what are your plans?"

This sentence stopped me, what are my plans, do I go to the noble lady to ask for someone, or do I want to make a big fuss with her, and she will not be at peace every day?

Qin Xiaolan saw that I was a little speechless, so he comforted: "Don't think about it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, maybe the fate of the two of you has not yet arrived." ”

After hearing this, I hurriedly said: "How can there be no fate, if it weren't for the old witch from the middle, I wouldn't have come to this point, who is to blame, Xue Xinyan lived in my house when she was seventeen years old, it has been more than ten years, and the marriage has been engaged, since the old witch appeared, everything has been messed up, and she desperately prevented me from dating Xinyan." ”

When I said this, my whole body trembled with anger, my face was red, and my heart was beating violently, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.

Qin Xiaolan heard me complain a lot, so he comforted me and said: "Okay, you, I was looking for you to complain today, but I didn't expect you to confide in me, just look away, maybe Xue Xinyan will come back one day." ”

"I hope so"

"Heroes have to endure loneliness in order to keep prosperity, where is this, you have to die or live, it's not like your style back then."

I looked at Qin Xiaolan's mood on the screen and calmed down a lot, and there was a faint smile on the corner of my mouth, so I persuaded her: "Hurry up and break up with that scumbag boyfriend as soon as possible, he is not worthy of your tears, the end of the flowery man is that people go to the empty, so that he doesn't get anything." ”

Qin Xiaolan was a little sad when she saw me mention her, she pursed her lips and said, "If I break up with him, who will want me." ”

I was embarrassed for a while after hearing this, looked at the screen and said: "I said Miss, you think this is a feudal society, how can you say that no one wants to break up, are you abandoned by him with a letter of resignation, or are you ravaged by him?"

After hearing this, she laughed and said: "That's not true, it's just that I don't want to talk about feelings now, I am very tired, and people have no energy, and I work every day in a mess, and I can't put in it at all." ”

Qin Xiaolan and I talked a lot and hung up the video call.

I glanced down at my watch, half past two, after chatting with Qin Xiaolan just now, I didn't feel sleepy, I thought to myself, I haven't seen Brother Scumbag for many days, I miss him a lot, so I called him, and after a few beeps, when I was about to hang up, Brother Slag answered the phone.

"Hey, Wang Tao"

The phone was still the same loud voice and extremely loud noise.

"Brother scumbag, I'm back, where are you setting up a stall in the flea market, I want to go over to find you."

"Ah, I'm in the market in the north of the city, when did you come back, why don't you say anything, I'll pick you up."

I thought to myself, it would be nice if I came back alive, and I would let someone pick me up.

"Why did you go to the market in the north of the city again, wasn't it in Hexi last time?"

"I'll run at both ends, come here, I'll close the stall early today, we haven't drunk for a few days, have a good drink tonight, it's too boring to drink by yourself."

I hung up, walked out of the courtyard gate, hailed a taxi, and headed for the flea market north of the city.

This market is still crowded and chaotic, I squeezed left and right, struggling to check left and right, walked for about five minutes, I finally saw the scumbag brother sitting behind the stall, looking at Erlang's legs, smoking, looking completely intoxicated.

He was a lot darker, his eyes were bright, and his thin body was lean.

I walked over with a smile, and when I saw that my head was wrapped like a mummy, he exclaimed, "What's wrong with my head?" ”

I smiled and said, "I'll talk to you slowly when I go back." ”

Brother Scumbag shouted angrily: "Which bastard beat him, damn, Lao Tzu picked his skin." ”

I hurriedly persuaded: "It's okay, scumbag, the small injury is just a big circle wrapped in gauze, and I will take it off tomorrow." ”

Brother Scumbag handed me a cigarette and said, "After smoking this cigarette, close the stall"

After I helped Brother Scumbag clean up the stall, I went directly to the vegetable market with him, and Brother Slag asked me, "What do you want to eat, is seafood okay?" ”

After hearing this, I hurriedly refused, the seafood must not be eaten again, the seafood I ate with Zhang Xueyao today has not been digested, and I can't eat seafood all at once.

I said to Brother Scum: "Just buy some other dishes, we mainly drink, and the food is the foil, just make it simple." ”

After hearing this, Brother Za bought two handfuls of garlic sprouts, half a catty of tomatoes, half a catty of okra, a handful of celery, and a piece of mutton.

I bought two bundles of cold beer at the supermarket near the wet market, everything was fine, and we took a taxi home.

Brother scumbag returned to the yard and washed his face, and began to be busy cooking, after all the dishes were fried, I ate a bite of egg scrambled okra, the entrance has both the greasy flavor of eggs, and the plain taste of okra, it is delicious, I praised Brother Slag and said: "Brother Scum, you can change your career to be a chef in the future, I tell you seriously, you can go back to your hometown to open a small restaurant, your cooking skills are no worse than those chefs." ”

Brother Scumbag took a sip of beer and said, "Don't flatter me, you kid, I have a few pounds and a few taels of my own heart, and I know very well that I am not that material." ”

I told the scumbag what happened to me and Xue Xinyan, and he was angry when he heard it, and scolded loudly: "Damn, how can there be such a vicious old woman in the world, what does she have to do with young people." ”

I looked at Brother Scum drunkenly and said, "Brother Scum, I can't do anything now, I don't know where Xinyan was sent, I can't do anything when I'm in a hurry." ”

Brother Scumbag lit a cigarette, looked at me for a moment, and said hoarsely, "I have a way." ”

I looked at the scumbag brother with a curious look and said, "What way?" ”

Brother Scumbag sold Guan Zi and said, "Drink first, and I'll tell you tomorrow." ”

The two of us drank all the two bundles of beer, I staggered back to the bed, took out my mobile phone, and looked at Xue Xinyan who was smiling like a flower on the screen, with sad tears flowing from the corners of my eyes.
