Chapter 279: Death Day

One morning at the end of December, it was snowing lightly.

Zhong Qing got up early and got dressed, she walked down the stairs and saw Zhong Jingtian, who was already waiting at the door, the father and daughter looked at each other without saying a word, and the old housekeeper had already stopped and waited outside.

Today is the death day of Zhong Qing's mother, and on this day every year, no matter how busy Zhong Qing and Zhong Jingtian are, they will go to the cemetery together and talk to Zhong Qing's mother.

Today, however, there are two more special figures.

Zhong Nian supported Chu Shuzhi, whose eyes were red and swollen, and said to Zhong Qing: "My mother also wants to go to see Aunt Li, but she doesn't dare to tell you directly, so I'll do it for me." ”

"I want to go and apologize to her." Chu Shuzhi's lips trembled: "I have been living in self-satisfaction all these years, I don't know what I did wrong, and now I regret it, I know that I was too wrong." I don't expect your mother to forgive me, but I want to do everything I can to say sorry to her. ”

Zhong Jingtian frowned, and scolded with some displeasure: "What are you going to do?" Don't mess around......"

"Let her go." Zhong Qing interrupted Zhong Jingtian's words and said indifferently.

Over the years, Chu Shuzhi owes her mother more than one apology? Before Chu Shuzhi said that she wanted to apologize to her mother, Zhong Qing had thought that she would not forgive her no matter what she said or did, but now when she pleaded with herself, she couldn't refuse.

Zhong Jingtian glanced at Zhong Qing and swallowed what he wanted to say back into his stomach.

Zhong Nian drove the car behind Zhong Jingtian and Zhong Qing, and the two cars kept a short distance.

Chu Shuzhi, the co-pilot, kept wiping her tears, and Zhong Nian became more and more anxious listening to the sobs next to him.

Father scolded his mother in front of everyone more than once, Zhong Nian did not have the idea of taking his mother away, but his mother was stubborn and refused to leave anything.

"What did you ask her to go with?" In the car, Zhong Jingtian complained to Zhong Qing: "Your mother won't want to see her, I'll call Xiao Nian now and ask Xiao Nian to drive back." ”

Zhong Qing turned his head to look at the scenery outside the car and said coldly:

"She's going to apologize to my mom and admit her mistakes, why do you think my mom doesn't want to see someone who confesses in front of her?"

"If my mother really doesn't want to see her, it's someone who has been visiting her for more than 20 years and has never said a word of 'sorry'."

Zhong Jingtian threw the phone to the ground, he pointed at Zhong Qing's nose and scolded, "What did you say! There are no rules! I'm your dad! ”

"I know you're my dad, and I didn't even mention your name, did I?"

Zhong Jingtian's weather is not good, especially seeing Zhong Qing's indifferent attitude, he really wants to train her well.

But after thinking about it, today is the death day of his ex-wife, Zhong Qing is already in a bad mood, and a few words may not have passed through his brain.

Forget it, don't be like her.

"You speak with respect, Zhong Qing, don't think I don't know what you have in mind."

Zhong Qing lowered her eyelids, the scenery outside the window fell in sight, and suddenly, she saw a familiar car walking side by side with the car she was in.

It's Gu Xiu!

Zhong Qing's hands clenched into fists, he still remembered what day it was!

Zhong Qing, who hadn't been in contact with Gu Xiu for half a month, only missed him, and she tried to get in touch with Gu Xiu in various ways, but Zhong Jingtian looked at it strictly, and she didn't even have a chance to meet him.

Zhong Jingtian, who was on the side, also noticed that there was a car following him.

"Old Song, drive the car faster!"

"Yes!"

Watching the car outside the window slowly disappear from view, Zhong Qing gritted her teeth and leaned back in her chair with her head down.

"You sober up, if he really cares about you, how can he treat you like he did before?" Zhong Jingtian said: "Don't you think it's bad enough to be killed by him!" You almost got killed by him, you know! ”

"He wasn't the one who wanted to kill me, he saved me." Zhong Qing was too lazy to argue with Zhong Jingtian about right and wrong, but she couldn't listen to Zhong Jingtian splashing dirty water on Gu Xiu's body three times and twice.

Obviously this is not the case, but Zhong Jingtian wants to say that Gu Xiu is not for the reasons he thinks.

"You're still young, and in a few years you'll understand my good intentions."

"If you like him, you won't really like him for a lifetime. Marriage doesn't have to be because of love, people who come together because of suitability are more likely to ...... for a long time"

What Zhong Jingtian said sounded so unreasonable to Zhong Qing. He persuaded Zhong Qing in the way he thought was right, but Zhong Qing only felt disgusted after hearing what he said.

The car was parked outside the Nanshan Cemetery, the old housekeeper opened the car door with an umbrella, Zhong Qing walked out of the car cautiously with her stomach, she looked around, but did not see Gu Xiu's car.

Chu Shuzhi and Zhong Nian followed behind the two of them, the snow gradually lightened, and the group climbed up the mountain and found the tombstone of the Li family in the rows of tombstones, Zhong Qing looked at the appearance of his mother in the photo, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Chu Shuzhi knelt in front of the tombstone with a "plop", she had already cried into tears.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry for you......"

"It's my fault that I'm wrong, I'm confused! Sister, I did such a conscientious thing back then, and I should be the one who should be damned......"

Seeing this scene, Zhong Qing couldn't help but take two steps back, her emotions reached a critical point that was about to explode, but just as she turned around, a warm and powerful embrace suddenly enveloped her.

Gu Xiu's scent surrounded Zhong Qing, and she grabbed the corner of his clothes and couldn't cry.

Zhong Jingtian, who was not far away, saw this scene, and he was just about to step forward to separate the two of them, but Zhong Nian suddenly blocked in front of him.

"Dad, do you have to be more serious about this today?"

"Mom is already crying like this, don't you see? Isn't it important to you that my mother leaves you even if her heart dies! ”

Zhong Jingtian was stunned when he heard this, he looked at Chu Shuzhi, who was kneeling on the ground and crying, and his eyes showed a hint of complexity.

After hesitating for a while, he still walked to Chu Shuzhi's side and reached out to help her up.

"Even if it's wrong, it's not your fault alone."

Zhong Jingtian looked at the photo of his ex-wife on the tombstone, all kinds of emotions welled up in his heart, remembering what Zhong Qing had said in the car before, he took a deep breath.

In the next second, Zhong Jingtian bowed deeply to the tombstone.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry for you."

After saying this, Zhong Jingtian's eyes also moistened.

The scenes of the past are replayed in front of his eyes - the picture when he met Li Qingqing for the first time, the picture of her blushing and shy when the two confirmed their relationship, and the picture when they got married and they were blessed by everyone and thought they would be so happy forever......

It was he who was sorry for Li Qingqing, it was he who made a mistake and had a personal relationship with Chu Shuzhi, which made Li Qingqing, who was already in poor health, depressed, so that she finally died of illness, Zhong Jingtian didn't take Chu Shuzhi back home for a long time, sad as if he was playing for others, he only cared about his own pleasure and completely forgot about the past.

Zhong Qing, who was on the other side, saw this scene and cried even more in Gu Xiu's arms. She clutched the corner of his clothes to keep herself from crying too much.

Gu Xiu draped his coat over Zhong Qing's body, and then hugged her.

"Good, it's okay, I'm here."

After the separation, she knew how to cherish it more, Zhong Qing once didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and it wasn't until now, when she leaned on Gu Xiu's chest and listened to his heartbeat, she knew how hard-won happiness was.

"Why are you here...... Do you know that I miss you so much...... Why did you come to see me......"

The sense of uneasiness exploded at this moment, Zhong Qing was like a lonely and lonely child, only in front of Gu Xiu, she was willing to express her emotions.

All the indifference shown in front of Zhong Jingtian is fake, the real her can hardly bear the blow of losing her mother, even after twenty years, she is just as sad.

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

Gu Xiu's heart was dripping blood, especially after seeing Zhong Qing's tears, self-blame was no longer enough to express his current emotions, he wanted to take Zhong Qing away from here, to a small island where they were the only ones, away from all right and wrong.

Zhong Nian stood in the distance, looking at the picture of the two hugging each other, and felt sad.

She would miss the days with Gu Zihan, but he obviously hurt herself and the Zhong family, why couldn't she let him go?

Zhong Nian took a deep breath, she turned her head away, even if she was crying, she didn't want others to see it.

Gu Xiu touched Zhong Qing's belly, and seeing that she had lost a little weight recently, he was even more determined to take her away.

At this time, Zhong Jingtian had regained his composure, he helped Chu Shuzhi up and handed it over to Zhong Nian to take care of, and then he walked to Gu Xiu's side and coughed lightly.

"Zhong Qing, it's time for us to go back." Zhong Jingtian said.

Zhong Qing wiped away her tears, turned to look at her father, she bowed her head and said nothing, Gu Xiu next to her stepped forward and bowed to Zhong Jingtian.

"Mr. Zhong, please let me take Zhong Qing home to take care of it."

"The Zhong family is Zhong Qing's home! You don't have anything to do with her anymore! Zhong Jingtian glared at Zhong Qing and scolded angrily: "Don't think that if I connived at you just now, you can always be willful!" Hug and hug a man in broad daylight, it's not a shame! ”
