Chapter 8: Choosing to Forgive (5)

We came to a popular restaurant, as soon as we entered, we saw that several tables were already full, the environment here is good, there is a natural feeling, all kinds of flowers and vegetables make this place more vibrant, and the appetite for dining in such an environment will also become better.

We ate and drank and chatted happily, but Emperor Wu seemed much colder, always shaking the soda in the cup alone, or looking down at his phone, always feeling that he seemed to be a little out of touch with our harmonious and lively atmosphere.

"I saw that you had been looking at your phone just now, what were you looking at?" Emperor Wu glanced at me and said, "Novel." "It turned out to be reading online novels, but there seem to be a lot of people who like to read online novels recently, and I want to say something, but Emperor Wu has been looking at the novel seriously with his head down, and he doesn't pay attention to me anymore.

The food here really tastes very good, it can be said that it is very good for my appetite, I ate a lot, and drank a lot, I see that Emperor Wu has been immersed in eating and did not pay much attention to our topic, Ivanov felt that there was no feeling for drinking, and proposed to change the wine, a large box of beer was placed next to our table, Ivanov opened the bottle and poured it directly into his mouth, and because he drank too violently, he was choked by the beer and coughed, looking at his face that was red by the wine, we all laughed.

"I really envy you, the relationship is so good." In the laughter I heard a different voice from my friend, I looked at the original person called Emperor Wu also laughed, I always thought he was an indifferent person, now I found out that he can also laugh, is it because he is too tired to take off the mask of defense, is it because in a really warm environment will show his truest expression to others, seeing his happy appearance I raised the corners of my mouth and said with some pride: "Of course, they are my most important friends." ”

"Conway, don't you blush when you say something like that." After Chen Bo finished speaking, I patted my chest and said disappreliantly: "What's the matter, the facts I said, what is there to blush." ”

After listening to what I said, Emperor Wu let out a sigh and muttered to himself: "It's so good, it's good to have friends." I can hear the envy and bitterness contained in this sentence, does he have no friends? How lonely it would be for a person to have a life if he didn't even have a friend, I looked at Emperor Wu who was looking at the cup in a daze, hesitated, and asked that sentence.

"Don't you have any friends?" After I finished speaking, his hand holding the cup trembled slightly, and he smiled and drank the beer from the cup and said, "Yes, I have not had any friends since I was a child, and it is really strange to be honest, I feel as if I can't fit into the circle of others no matter how hard I try, I feel that I am always that superfluous." ”

"Anyone is a precious asset, and no one is superfluous to this world, how can you have such an idea." Hearing Emperor Wu's somewhat sad words, Chen Bo frowned and said.

"Chen Bo is right, you should give yourself more confidence." I patted the other party on the shoulder, poured him a full glass of beer, raised my own wine glass and gently touched his glass and said: "The relationship between people is like this, if you don't take the initiative, who will take the initiative to talk to you, you toast others, others will toast you, you invite others to a meal, others will invite you to a meal, you help others, others will want to help you, you say warm words to others, others will say warm words to you, don't always treat yourself as a victim, With a pitiful and cold look, let go of yourself in order to have more happiness. After I finished speaking, I drank the wine from the cup into my stomach.

I saw Emperor Wu look at me and was slightly stunned, and suddenly laughed loudly, the sudden laughter was gradually covered by crying, in order to cover up his embarrassment, Emperor Wu drank all the wine in the cup in front of him, and felt very happy, laughed loudly a few times and said: "The first time I heard someone say such things to me, you are right, you are right." ”

"To be honest, I've always felt that there can be any real friends in the unit, isn't it all about interests, the so-called friends are just easier when doing things, and those who can really talk to you intimately, how much can help you when you are in trouble, usually everyone drinks and eats very lively, but how many people have a heart-to-heart, so I don't care, it doesn't matter, but when I heard your words, brother, although I know that we have nothing to do with each other, that is, we just know each other, but I am still very moved, brother, I, Emperor Wu, toast you. ”

Emperor Wu poured my cup full of wine and also picked up his own cup, it turned out that after really letting go, I found that the other party was also a bold person, and I felt indescribably happy to chat and drink with such a person.

"By the way, I've always wondered why you're so obsessed with finding that mythical place?" Junxi asked while looking at Emperor Wu while eating the dishes in the bowl delicately. I originally wanted to stop Junxi from asking this sensitive question all at once, but I was personally very curious about this answer, and looked at Emperor Wu with some expectation, hoping that he would say something.

"Hehe, if I say it's just curiosity, you won't believe it, although I don't know where you know about me, but I'll tell you, I'm here to see my wife, the most important person in my life." Emperor Wu's eyelids suddenly drooped when he said this, leaving a fan-shaped shadow on his face, I knew that he thought of something that made him sad, I heard that his wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer when he was messing with that college student, and Emperor Wu didn't even go to see her when her wife was in the most pain, and it wasn't long after she died that he learned the bad news, that is, from that time on, he didn't go to work for several days, and kept trapping himself at home, I almost lost my job.

"Why, I still can't believe all this in front of me, why am I going to ******, why am I going to with that college student, I still think I must have been crazy at that time, she loves me so much, she has struggled with me for so many years, she has never given up on me, why should I hurt such a good woman!" The man who had always spoken steadily suddenly went crazy and banged his hand on his chest, venting his sadness and anger by self-harm, he may really love his wife, because that love is so painful now, that feeling that life is worse than death, that pain as if everything was torn apart, I can feel it.

"I used to think that there were a lot of women around me to turn around is a very proud thing, look, there are so many women like me, don't you feel very proud and proud, this is the best time to reflect the charm of men, but now I find out that no matter how many women are not as good as a her, I don't want anyone but her, I love her, I really, really love her, what should I do without her, I'm going crazy." Emperor Wu had drunk a lot unconsciously, and the more he drank, the more he said, as if he had said what he had wanted to say all along.

"If you meet her, what do you want to say to her?" I looked at Emperor Wu with a smile and asked.

"I don't know, I don't know what to say, I want to ask her to forgive me, I really miss her, I miss her." The staccato words came out of his mouth, a box of wine was almost drunk by him, and there was a lot of food left on the table, so much, and I heard him tell a lot about his love story with her.

Two young people who have been struggling together since college, from the beginning they have agreed to never leave, but the two people who have been together forever have become what they are now, maybe the wife is like the air around us, because we can feel it every day, so it doesn't matter, because I feel that the other party has always loved me deeply, I will feel that no matter what I do, I will be forgiven by the other party, because I am too close to each other and I can't see each other's shadows, I can't feel each other's existence, when the air is lost, People will die of suffocation, and when your wife leaves you, you will understand how much you love and love your wife.

"What's the use of talking about this now, even if you want to compensate the other party, you can't feel it." Listening to those heart-wrenching words, Chen Bo suddenly stood up uncontrollably, I saw that he had been clutching the clothes in his heart, his face was full of pain, and I knew that he remembered Xiaowei.

The night passed quickly, we pulled the man who drank so much that he didn't know the southeast and northwest and sent him back to the hotel, looking at the moon in the sky and thinking a lot, life is short, how many things we have, cherish it when we can have it, your happiness to have someone with you in your life, how many people in the world can accompany you to the best, except for the person who loves you, there should be no one else.

This night I had insomnia, looking at the moon in the sky through the window, and I sat alone until dawn.
