Text Chapter 154: Appeal to the heart
Lu Chutian concealed his inner mood, nodded, and said with difficulty: "Okay." ”
Seeing that Zhong Linlan was still standing outside the door, he said again: "Let's go into the house, it's cold outside." ”
Zhong Linlan still stayed where she was, shaking her head: "I'm not cold at all, if I stand here, as long as He Ting comes back, I will be able to see it for the first time." ”
Lu Chutian's heart was filled with more intense pain, he slowly came to Zhong Linlan's side, stepped forward and touched her hand, his eyebrows frowned: "Your hands are so cold, you still say it's not cold?" ”
Then he thoughtfully took off his coat and draped it on Zhong Linlan's body.
"Thank you." Zhong Linlan's eyes were in a trance, and she subconsciously touched the clothes on her body, and suddenly felt a lot warmer.
The corners of Lu Chutian's mouth hooked a slight arc: "You don't have to thank me." ”
After waiting for a long time, the food on the table was already cold. Outside the gate, it was still silent, as quiet as stagnant water.
"He's not coming back." Lu Chutian looked at the time, and finally reminded him in distress.
Zhong Linlan seemed to be a little unwilling, with a hint of expectation: "Wait, he should come back, today is his birthday." ”
Lu Chutian knew that she was still trapped in a weaving dream, so he had to say ruthlessly: "If you want to come back, you will come back a long time ago." ”
After finishing speaking, Lu Chutian kept standing behind her, seeing her back standing still, Xu was brewing emotions and couldn't bear to disturb. After a while, he saw that Zhong Linlan seemed to have collected his emotions, looked back at him, and pretended to be relaxed: "What you said is the same, I have already had dinner at this point now, and I will definitely not come back." ”
Lu Chutian looked at her carefully and noticed that she was deliberately avoiding her gaze.
"It's a shame for the meals I worked so hard to make." Zhong Linlan's eyelids trembled slightly, and a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Why don't we have a drink?" ”
Lu Chutian naturally nodded.
"Come, try my craft." Zhong Linlan still had a relaxed expression on her face, and smiled and served Lu Chutian with vegetables.
Lu Chutian took a big gulp, his face was full of enjoyment, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "It's delicious." ”
"It looks like I'm getting better at cooking." Zhong Linlan said helplessly, "It's just that there are people who are not uncommon. ”
Lu Chutian's movements were stunned.
"You don't have to worry about me." Zhong Linlan glanced at him and pretended to be relaxed, "Although he didn't come back, I'm not alone, so it's not a big deal." ”
Lu Chutian chewed the food in his mouth, and actually tasted a trace of bitterness.
"Come, drink." Zhong Linlan smiled and poured him a full glass of red wine, and also poured his own wine glass.
Lu Chutian was a little uneasy: "You still don't drink so much." ”
Zhong Linlan couldn't listen to it at all, and her tone was a little self-deprecating: "What can't you drink?" Wine is a good thing, don't persuade me today, drink with me. ”
"Okay."
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Chutian nodded vigorously, knowing that Zhong Linlan was just trying to find an outlet to vent all the depression in his heart.
Cup after cup, and in the end, Zhong Linlan's emotions became excited.
"Thank you for coming and drinking with me." Her throat choked, and the wine entered her throat, which was so spicy that she felt distressed.
Lu Chutian said distressedly: "I said earlier that I should not be polite, it's just a glass of wine, a trivial matter." ”
"You're the only one who's so good to me, don't look at my usual glamorous, in fact, I'm not happy at all. Although as a member of the Zhong family, I have been clothed and fed since I was a child, and I have what I want, but they don't understand me at all. ”
Seeing that tears were falling from Zhong Linlan's eyes, Lu Chutian took out a tissue and handed it to her.
Zhong Linlan casually took the tissue and continued to cry: "In their eyes, I can't see any family affection, they just blindly treat me as a tool for interests, and other than that, I'm nothing!" ”
Seeing that her face was full of tears and a layer of redness, Lu Chutian's heart seemed to be torn in half by others. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, stepped forward and gently wiped away the tears hanging from the corners of Zhong Linlan's eyes, and whispered softly: "I know, I know." ”
Zhong Linlan poured another glass of wine, and when she wanted to drink it, she was stopped by Lu Chutian. Looking sideways, he crashed into Lu Chutian's worried eyes at a glance.
"Don't drink, you're already drunk." Lu Chutian's heart was in turmoil.
Zhong Linlan still clutched the wine glass, and said aggrievedly: "Just let me drink it, only in this way will I feel better." ”
couldn't bear to see Zhong Linlan's heart-wrenching appearance like this, Lu Chutian could only slowly let go of his hand.
"I used to think that Herting loved me, but when I found out that the only thing he had left for me was the good feeling that I grew up with, I only felt unwilling." Zhong Linlan's words were choked and choked.
She had already discovered that Yuan Heting's heart didn't stay in her heart at all, and even she wanted to take the initiative to show favor again and again, but Yuan Heting didn't even want to touch her.
In the past few years, Yuan Heting's only remaining good feelings for her have long been exhausted.
Lu Chutian listened carefully to Zhong Linlan's grievances on the side, and heard every sentence in his heart. Every word Zhong Linlan said, it was like a thorn, piercing his heart alive, and it was extremely painful.
"I've always wanted to work hard to maintain my relationship with him, because I know that it didn't come easily, and I cherish it more than anyone else." Zhong Linlan smiled bitterly, "But he doesn't even want to give me this opportunity, no matter how I keep it, he doesn't appreciate it." ”
As if touching the emotional wound in his heart, Zhong Linlan covered his face with his hands and let out a slight sob.
Lu Chutian couldn't stand it anymore, he leaned closer to her and hugged her into his arms, and even could clearly feel that her shoulders were trembling uncontrollably.
"Ah Tian, I'm really tired...... Zhong Linlan burst into tears, "I don't want to do this either, but I'm exhausted." ”
Life is like a bottomless pit, with floods pouring out there, poking one place, flooding everywhere.
"I know." Lu Chutian's heart was sour, "Hearing you say this, I feel very uncomfortable in my heart." ”
Feeling that the person in his arms was trembling more and more, Lu Chutian couldn't help but hug her even tighter, patted her back gently, and said: "I once hoped that you could live happily, no matter who the people around you are, as long as you are happy, I will ask for nothing more, but now that I hear you like this, I ......" Talking about it, a trace of pity flashed in Lu Chutian's eyes.
"I'm going to get justice for you no matter what."
Zhong Linlan's tearful eyes flashed with a hint of strange emotion, although her face was drunk, but her mind was more sober.
The most common thing I heard was that drunkenness can relieve sorrow and forget sad things, but for her, after getting drunk, those scars became more and more clearly exposed in front of her, showing her how miserable she was defeated.
A wave of hatred rushed towards her, and she cried more and more, "I don't know how it became like this, it was fine before, but now since Su Wuxi's woman appeared, she has begun to mess up all the original tracks." ”
Su Wuxi! Hearing these three words, Lu Chutian's narrow eyes flashed slightly, but he did not speak.
"But I don't blame her, I can only blame myself, if I fight for a little bit and keep Heting's heart, it won't be like this."
Hearing that the woman in his arms was so sad, but he still wanted to speak for Su Wuxi, he would rather blame all the blame on himself, he really couldn't bear it.
"How can you be blamed for this? I don't know about emotional matters, but you are such a good girl, Heting is blind if he doesn't want you. As for Su Wuxi, she ......, "Lu Chutian has Zhong Linlan in his heart, and all he thinks about is her good."
"Don't say that......" Zhong Linlan sobbed.
Seeing her like this, Lu Chutian sighed helplessly: "You are like this now, why do you still think about others?" ”
"What else can I do?" Zhong Linlan left from Lu Chutian's arms, smiling helplessly, but tears fell.
She picked up the wine glass with trembling hands, and with a slip of her hand, the glass fell to the ground with a sharp sound, as if it was about to smash the grief around her.
"Don't move, I'll clean up."
When Lu Chutian said this, it was already late. I saw Zhong Linlan squatting down, trying to pick up the pieces, but his hand was accidentally cut, and bright red blood flowed out quickly, wanting to come out and see the air.
"Does it hurt?" Lu Chutian suddenly panicked, and immediately covered her hand, and his tone implied reproach, "I said that you should not touch it." ”
Zhong Linlan shook her head lightly, her eyes choking: "It doesn't hurt at all." ”
It may be that the pain has shifted its location for a while, and a swarm of bees has run to the heart, and the physical pain has become a lot lighter for a while, and it is not so painful.
"They said it didn't hurt, they were bleeding." Lu Chutian didn't believe what she said, only seeing the blood flowing out, his heart was about to stop breathing.
He immediately took a band-aid, gently pasted it carefully for Zhong Linlan, and said with concern: "Next time, you must pay attention, don't touch the water these days, be careful of wound inflammation." ”
Zhong Linlan just nodded vigorously, and her eyes were already red.
"If only Herting could be half as good as you." Zhong Linlan seemed to be talking to herself.
For Zhong Linlan's action of cleaning the wound, Lu Chutian couldn't say anything no matter how much he said. He couldn't tell Zhong Linlan about the feelings he shouldn't have, and he couldn't say it.
Naturally, he didn't think that this feeling could not be spoken, and it would last for more than twenty years.
"He didn't find your good, he didn't know how to cherish it, sooner or later he will regret it." Lu Chutian repaired his wounds, and when he saw that her brows were almost invisible, he frowned, and said distressedly, "Did it hurt you?" ”
Zhong Linlan shook her head: "No." ”
Seeing her like this, Lu Chutian sighed secretly: "No matter what you say this time, I really can't bear to see you like this, no matter what, I have to have a good talk with Su Wuxi." ”
Zhong Linlan's eyes flashed slightly, only for a moment.
Lu Chutian continued to look at Zhong Linlan's band-aided wound, becoming more and more distressed, and said, "I will let her take the initiative to leave Yuan Heting." ”
Although it is really unbearable to give Zhong Linlan away, Lu Chutian can only do this in order to make Zhong Linlan happy, otherwise he would have seized the opportunity many years ago.
