Chapter 016: Radiance

He was a sun, radiant, and I stood beside him, even the stars were eclipsed. But I'm still shining, and far away from him, you'll see my unique light.

—Epigraph

Dong Xiaokui didn't know how to answer for a while. It is true that when she encounters Xu Er's affairs, she is always a little hesitant. Because reason told her that she must not go back. But, in her heart, she really wanted to see him.

"Anyway, before the twentieth day of July, you go back to Ningyuan." Ye San saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and his tone was a little impatient. However, the voice, as always, was very low.

It's July 20 again, what day is it? The last time I saw his ID card once in a while, his birthday seemed to be autumn and October.

Dong Xiaokui was about to ask Ye San, but heard an extremely polite woman's voice whispering, "Mr. Ye, the porridge you asked for is hot." ”

"Well, put it there." Ye San's voice was also extremely low.

Dong Xiaokui was a little puzzled, even in the dead of night, in his own home, he shouldn't be in this state of talking, as if he was afraid of noisy people. This Ye San is also a little abnormal.

She was still wondering, but Ye San said, "Anyway, you come back as soon as possible." If you have any decision, you have to explain it to your face, okay, I'll go get something to eat. ”

As soon as Dong Xiaokui heard that he was going to hang up the phone, he hurriedly asked, "Do you know Chen Jun's whereabouts?" I called him and he never answered. ”

Ye San paused when he heard this, and said with some displeasure: "Chen Jun is actually confused this time. Alright, I'll ask him to call you tomorrow. ”

"No, I know he's fine, that's it." Dong Xiaokui breathed a sigh of relief, and a stone hanging in her heart fell.

Ye San didn't say anything more, and resolutely hung up the phone.

It looks like everything is going in a good direction. Chen Jun didn't have an accident, and the matter of the ancestral house was also lost to meeting Li Yongfeng. The only thing I remember is Xu Er.

Thinking of him, Dong Xiaokui still couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and turned on the computer, just looking at the photo in the computer, he had a faint smile on his face, clear and warm, and she fell asleep peacefully in his arms. There is a timeless beauty in this picture, which reminds her of two words: forever.

She stared at him for a long time, and then took out every bit of what she knew him and chewed it carefully. Just like that, I opened my eyes and watched the moon shine like frost, until the day was almost bright, and then I fell into a deep sleep.

In his sleep, he was not steady, and he saw Xu Er's face again and again, gloomy and displeased, and said coldly: "Let you stay in Ningyuan and take good care of Long Feihuyi, what are you running." ”

She hung her head and stood in front of him, as if it was hot summer, and cicadas chirped outside the window.

"You're always smart." He said, leaning over and a huge shadow fell to cover her.

This is Ning Yuan's study, and the daylight outside the house is just right. Under his pressure, she couldn't help but retreat, and there was no way to retreat, that is, leaning against the black-framed window, outside which there was a verdant spider plant, and the golden light flowed in the daylight.

He finally leaned down, his breath was all around, Dong Xiaokui only felt that his breathing had stopped, and he didn't dare to move, nor did he dare to look at his face.

He didn't speak, just leaned down slowly.

It's-

This seems to be a common pre-kiss gesture on TV. When she thought of this, she was even more panicked that there was no way to escape, and she couldn't help but half-close her eyes. But Xu Er just leaned over to her ear and said with some disdain: "I said that you are really smart, in the end, I have lost my eyes." ”

These words made Dong Xiaokui's heart chuckle, and he didn't speak yet. He had turned and walked out of the study. Somehow, she was a little anxious and shouted, "You can make it clear." ”

Without looking back, he strode out and slammed the door shut. "Bang" and hit her heart hard.

He was extremely disappointed in her behavior after all, right? He asked her to stay in Ningyuan to take care of Long Feihuyi, even if there was something wrong with the ancestral house, she should go back when it was done, and he said that he would strive to return to Ningyuan before July 20.

Yes, on July 20, the so-called meeting has long since ended, and he can be less busy.

However, she made up her mind to stay away from him. It's not just because of the "Qi Da Fei Couple" and the difference in the family that she is holding back. is even more because she has a trace of thought in her heart and has other plans.

This capital is his territory, although he is cold and rarely shows off, but it does not affect his dazzling at all, he is like the sun, the light is dazzling, even if Dong Xiaokui is a bright star, standing beside him, it is still eclipsed.

Even if she wanted to be with him, she didn't want to be his warbler Yanyan, the kind of symbol called "woman" that he passed by.

Therefore, she chose to leave the capital and breathe freely and shine in a place where there was no him. Perhaps, in this vast universe, when he occasionally looks in her direction, he will see her wonderful.

She also knew that this kind of departure would inevitably disappoint him. He was such a proud man, and he calculated well every step of the way, and she went against his will.

She also knew that he would be disappointed and that she would be sad, but she didn't know that she would be so sad, and her breathing seemed to be painful.

The daylight outside the window is just right, the cicadas are singing one after another, and the tiger winged dragon flies in the garden and occasionally cries twice, which seems to be very happy.

If you weren't you, and I wasn't me, how happy it would be. She slowly crouched down against the wall, gently closed her eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes. At this time, the sadness in her heart came out, and she actually cried with a whimper, like the hairrope of her beloved bow when she was a child.

After crying for a while, she thought: when it's time to leave, she must leave with dignity.

So, although she was still sobbing, she still raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, and grabbed the window lattice with one hand to stand up. Unexpectedly, she was hugged by him, and she didn't move at once.

Instead, he asked, "What are you crying about?" ”

"I—" She looked at his face in amazement.

"Wipe your tears with your sleeve, if it's dirty, clean it up yourself, and then come and polish the ink for me." He said.

Dong Xiaokui just let him hold him in a daze and didn't move. He didn't let go, but took her into his arms and whispered, "Why do you say you're so stupid." ”

She leaned into his arms, and suddenly felt that all the withered trees around her had sprouted, and the budding flowers had bloomed.

That's great. She closed her eyes tightly, sucking in his breath as best she could.

"Alright, Aoi, go freshen up." He shouted.

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui replied, but he still held him and didn't let go, as if once he let go, it would be difficult to hold him again.

"Go freshen up." He continued, shaking her.

She opened her eyes unwillingly, and saw the sunlight outside the window, the classical carved wooden bed, the curtains fluttering gently in the wind, and her mother stood in front of the window, looking at her with great concern.

She was stunned for a while before she realized that the real heartache just now was just a dream of Nan Ke, and what she was holding was just a warm quilt.

"Aoi, what's wrong with you? Is there something to hide from my mother, crying so sadly. Mom shook her.

Dong Xiaokui sat up with the quilt, shook her head, and said, "I had a nightmare." ”

"What did you dream about? Do you want to call Aunt Sixth to calculate for you, or do it, you will be almost twenty-two in October this year. Mom said, always with the pious and superstitious attitude peculiar to the older generation.

"No, it's just a dream that my classmates are separated." Dong Xiaokui said, turned over and got out of bed, went downstairs to wash, and then had breakfast, seeing that it was almost noon. Just as he was about to call Li Yongfeng, he heard Dong Xiaohuai shouting: "Sister, Teacher Li is here." ”

Dong Xiaokui put the phone in his bag, and as soon as he stood up, he saw Li Yongfeng walking in from the corridor of the shop in front of him, with a smile on his face, wearing a plaid shirt and black trousers that looked simple, which complemented him perfectly.

This group of people, in terms of taste and aesthetics, are all masters. As soon as you match it at will, you will show your own temperament.

He walked in and said with a smile, "I'm pinching the time to come, I wonder if I have lunch?" ”

My mother was fetching water and washing clothes on the well platform by the yard, and when she heard someone coming, she hurriedly came out and saw Li Yongfeng. Dong Xiaokui immediately said: "Mom, this is my friend and Xiaohuai's teacher." ”

Li Yongfeng immediately called out very respectfully, "Hello Auntie, my name is Li Yongfeng", and then said with a smile: "Where is Xiaohuai's teacher?" I haven't taught Xiaohuai, I'm just Xiaohuai's friend. ”

Mom smiled and said that she was going to cook, but Li Yongfeng hurriedly stopped her and said, "Auntie, I just made fun of Xiaokui." I came here after lunch, and I'm going to accompany Xiaokui to the ancestral house today. ”

"Back to the ancestral house?" Mom's face was a little strange, and she didn't seem to agree.

Dong Xiaokui was a little puzzled, but Li Yongfeng smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I'm going as Xiaokui's lawyer." ”

When my mother heard this, she said embarrassedly, "I didn't say anything." ”

Li Yongfeng smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I am Xiaokui's friend, so I will naturally protect her." Your concerns, I am well aware. ”

Mom pursed her lips, smiled, and said, "It's a blessing for Xiaokui to have a friend like Mr. Li." ”

Li Yongfeng smiled, but glanced at Dong Xiaokui and said, "It's my blessing to know Xiaokui." ”

Mom just laughed, very embarrassed. She's never been good at communicating with people, but today she talks a lot.

Dong Xiaokui stood aside, and then realized that her mother was worried about Li Yongfeng's identity. If you want to interfere in the sale of the ancestral house, it must be someone from the Dong family, and why should Li Yongfeng go.

Mother naturally thought of Dong Xiaokui's husband, so when she heard Li Yongfeng say that she wanted to go back to the ancestral house with her, she immediately felt that it was inappropriate.

But Li Yongfeng's reaction was too fast, right? Mom's face changed slightly, and he almost immediately realized that what his mother was worried about was what he was going to. This man is really smart.

Dong Xiaokui couldn't help but secretly praise and glanced at him. Li Yongfeng happened to turn around and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's not too early." ”

"Hmm." Dong Xiaokui also felt that the time was not early.

The two walked out of the door together, but Li Yongfeng asked him to wait at the entrance of the town. It is the time to catch the market, the very lively street market, all kinds of agricultural and sideline products, fresh vegetables and fruits abound, and the shouting and shouting are endless.

Dong Xiaokui stood at the entrance of the street, looking at the old street, afraid that Li Yongfeng would not see him, but who knew that he actually drove the car, lowered the window next to her, and shouted with a smile: "Xiaokui, get in the car." ”

Dong Xiaokui was stunned for a moment, looked at the car, and couldn't see any brand, but it was certain that the car driven by this guy was naturally not bad. It seems that the last time I was fishing, I listened to the conversation between Nayun Shao and Xu Er, asking for drag racing, and it was mentioned that Li Yongfeng liked cars very much, especially like to change cars.

Dong Xiaokui sat down, remembering that last time, he and Yun Shao were racing, and the tragic speed ——, she immediately obediently fastened her seat belt. Li Yongfeng pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.

This time, Li Yongfeng drove very slowly, driving on the cement road in the mountains, and dropped the window, and the wind outside the window, with the fragrance of plants, was very comfortable. Dong Xiaokui leaned back in the chair, looking at the winding and undulating mountain roads on both sides, and suddenly felt like there was no direction.

Li Yongfeng took a deep breath and said to himself: "The country is a village, and it's not bad. The taste of nature is pleasant. ”

Dong Xiaokui smiled, looked at him, and quipped: "If you want to live here every day, you don't want to." ”

"How so? I like to live here, like Yunlai Town. When I came here, I never had a calm, and the people who lived by the riverbank were simple and simple, even if they had bad intentions, they were just trivial things. I'm here, and I'm sleeping soundly. ”

These powerful sons and daughters are always like this, Dong Xiaokui shook his head, and did not refute strongly, but muttered: "The emperor has the happiness of the emperor, and the people have the suffering of the people." If you're a lemon, love your sourness and don't envy the sweetness of sugar. It's not good to think too much. ”

Li Yongfeng didn't speak, concentrated on driving, and said for a long time: "Maybe, you are right." ”

Dong Xiaokui didn't speak, just looked at the old Chinese knot hanging on the car, counting its lines in a daze.

When the car arrived at the ancestral house, Dong Xiaokui got out of the car, and the third master immediately pulled her over and asked in a low voice: "Today, are you sure?" The woman called yesterday and said that she would come with a lawyer today and give us one last chance. And who is that person? ”

The third grandfather said, and looked at Li Yongfeng who was standing at the door of the ancestral house.

Dong Xiaokui smiled at the third grandfather and said, "That's my lawyer, the third grandfather doesn't have to worry." Success or failure is now up to me. ”

"You kid——, you blame the third grandfather." The third grandfather was a little displeased.

Dong Xiaokui hugged his arm and comforted him with a smile before he comforted the old man. The woman hadn't come yet, so Dong Xiaokui took Li Yongfeng to visit the ancestral house and walked around the village again.

Li Yongfeng just listened to Dong Xiaokui's narration all the way, and after visiting the ancestral house, he was lying on the recliner on the grape trellis at the door, pillowing his arm, and then said slowly: "The Dong family is really wise, after the decline of the Tang Dynasty, they can see clearly the society at that time, famous families, scholarly families, and avoid disasters in Shuzhong." Choose a paradise like Hexiangdu. And, as a family that exists as a folk, it can be passed down for so many generations. His descendants can still retain the scholarly temperament of some ancestors, which is really not simple. ”

Dong Xiaokui also sat on the stool next to him and said, "The Dong family's genealogy, family history, and family motto are all indispensable. The Dong family came out of this faction, and some of the most basic ones should not be lost, such as some must-read history books, each patriarch must add or subtract according to the situation, and keep them properly; Another example is the practice of calligraphy, the practice of etiquette, especially the set of rituals of sacrifice; Also, there are some things in the ancestral teachings that must be adhered to, and they are particularly harsh on the Dong family's descendants. Sometimes, when I stand in this ancestral house or ancestral hall, I suddenly feel that I am in ancient times. ”

"I see." Li Yongfeng turned his head slightly, his expression was lazy, he looked at her with half-squinted eyes, and said: "Speaking with an ancient flavor, walking and sitting are not bewitching and casual, and the dress is also slightly ancient." However, I am more interested in: What are your ancestral teachings? ”

Dong Xiaokui pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and said slyly, "Secret." ”

Li Yongfeng waved his hand, pursed his lips, and said, "Cut." With your previous plan, use this ancestral house as a cultural relic to buy some and develop the surrounding area. Then it's impossible for you not to mention the ancestral training of the Dong family, right? ”

"It's a trade secret. However, if Mr. Li Yongfeng wants to invest, as a partner, of course, he has the right to know in advance. Dong Xiaokui sat up straight and smiled incomprehensibly.

"Yo, dare you wait for me on this road. I said, why are you so kind, and you also took me to visit the ancestral house, and explained it in detail, and the enthusiasm is like fire. Li Yongfeng turned to one side, and also sat upright, tilting his head to look at Dong Xiaokui.

Dong Xiaokui hid her face and smiled, coughed twice, cleared her throat, and said, "This plan, I also told you, is very feasible. If it is really done well, the benefits are also huge. First, I came to think that 'fat water does not flow into the field of outsiders', we are acquaintances, and you also have this ability, so it is better to do it for strangers, and secondly, it is not so easy to find a far-sighted co-developer like you. In recent years, many businesses either lack vision or are not atmospheric enough. So, come to think of it, you are the first choice for this case. Of course, only if you are interested. That's just what I'm talking about. ”

Li Yongfeng looked at Dong Xiaokui and did not answer, but slowly lay down on the recliner again, and said calmly: "I only learned today that Xiaokui's evaluation of me has reached such a height. What a flattering thing. ”

Dong Xiaokui smiled and said, "Listening to what you said, it seems that you were very suspicious of my vision in the past." ”

"Sharp-toothed." Li Yongfeng half-lowered his eyes, glanced at her, and said lazily: "You are very smart and know how to ask me to invest, and then, if I have interests in this ancestral house, I will inevitably destroy the other party in the competition, and then, your problem will be solved, because we are friends, after learning about this ancestral house, whether it is a development case, or whether this ancestral house is handed over to the state as cultural relics, I will not demolish this ancestral house." Aoi, your mind is very good. But—"

When Li Yongfeng said this, he sat up straight all of a sudden, and looked at her very seriously. Dong Xiaokui was a little panicked, this man actually pierced her plan so mercilessly, leaving no room at all. Now, with this serious look, I don't know what to think.
