Chapter 183: I wish I could turn back time
This lunch on this day, I started eating at two o'clock and ate until more than eight o'clock in the evening, and even dinner was saved by the way, during which in addition to the episode of Zhilan's forced marriage, the highlight was Gao Minlang's marriage proposal.
Later, except for Zhilan, the other three were a little drunk, and when Liu Zhuo was slightly drunk, the conversation box also opened.
She talked a lot about her and Zhilan in Lanzhou, Gao Minlang listened attentively, Li Junqiu rarely stopped, and Zhilan also put her hands on her cheeks and listened carefully.
Liu Zhuo said: "Zhilan, do you remember, in your freshman year, there was a boy chasing you, and at Christmas, I bought flowers and chocolates and called your name downstairs in the dormitory at night, tsk..." She lay on the table, her eyes slightly closed, as if she were asleep.
Li Junqiu's gossip heart was ignited instantly, and he was listening to it to the fullest, but there was no result, you said that it was annoying. was about to wake Liu Zhuo up, but she was like crazy, raised her head suddenly, rolled her eyes, and said with drunkenness: "I remember that you happened to be washing your feet that night, and you saw that he was downstairs and refused to leave, so after washing your feet, you directly poured a basin of footwashing water, that boy, hahaha... Now that I think about it, Mo Zhilan, you are really not ordinary ruthless..."
When Liu Zhuo said this, Zhilan was also trying to recall the events of that day, but she forgot many details, and even forgot what kind of eyes and words the boy said when he left.
It seems that there are many things in life, you think you will never forget, but time does not give you the opportunity to forget. However, some things seem to be engraved in the bones, and it is even more difficult to forget.
Gao Minlang knows that Zhilan is beautiful, and it is not surprising that there are people who pursue it around her, college is a time to enjoy love, childhood sweethearts, love at first sight, love for a long time, and love is diverse, but Zhilan used a basin of foot washing water to extinguish the eagerness of the object of pursuit... He was even wondering if Zhilan only had hatred in her heart at that time...
Liu Zhuo said again: "In your junior year, you worked in a hotel, you were already a lobby manager at that time, and now I have forgotten what happened, I only remember that day after work, the five guidelines on the left side of your face are clearly recognizable, I asked you what's wrong, you just said, it's okay, it's just that there was an argument with the customer... But I was distressed and shed tears, I said, let's quit, but you comforted me, you said, how can there be so many perfections in life, most of them are not eating a trench and growing wise..."Liu Zhuo said, poured another glass of wine, and then raised his head and drank it, not a drop left: "Sometimes I am angry with you, angry at why you have to see everything so clearly..."
Zhilan didn't speak, but now that she thinks about it, all she can search for in her memory is Liu Zhuo who is angry and crying to help her with ice. Recalling the past, some things are destined to be painful, at that time she needed money, she needed that job, how could she not be angry in her heart, but after being angry, thinking about it, in fact, it's not a big deal, isn't it just a slap, fortunately, the work is still there.
Liu Zhuo is right, living too transparently, it will be very tiring, and sometimes it will be very painful, so there will be people who pursue the rare confusion that is not perfect.
Li Junqiu snatched Liu Zhuo's cup on the side, he was a little annoyed, although he was also drunk, but he couldn't see that his newlywed wife was the same as him. But Liu Zhuo didn't give it, but instructed Li Junqiu to pour her another glass.
Li Junqiu sat there without moving, Gao Minlang got up and took Liu Zhuo's wine glass, and helped her fill it again. In exchange, Li Junqiu rolled his eyes.
Gao Minlang warned: "You'd better not ruin the fun. ”
In fact, Li Junqiu didn't know what he was thinking, about Zhilan's ten years, he was blank here, looking at him like that, he knew that Zhilan had never told him about his ten years of life in Lanzhou, he just wanted to use the drunken Liu Zhuo to spy on it. This person is really annoying!
Liu Zhuo has a good amount of wine, a glass of wine, and the bottom is at the bottom again.
She continued: "Two years after graduating, you became the hotel's PR director, do you know how much I admire you? But the bitterness in your heart, who knows, without emotional sustenance, you will become a workaholic, eat and live in a hotel, I want to see you, I have to make an appointment with you several days in advance. Every time I see you, you will be much thinner than the last time you saw you. Maybe until now, Gao Minlang doesn't know that you once fainted due to malnutrition and were sent to emergency treatment late at night, right? Malnutrition? Oh, I'm ashamed to say it, forgive me for being lonely, the first time I heard this word, it was our junior high school classmate, his family was very poor, and he was steamed bread and pickles every day, but Zhilan, she was a dignified star hotel director, and she was malnourished... To put it mildly, there is nothing to eat in the hotel, a phone call, everything..."
Liu Zhuo sighed: "It was I who realized it later, until she resigned and returned to this city, I didn't know that everything she had was for a man named Gao Minlang, and she refused the pursuit of boys because she had that man in her heart, and she lived transparently, because she knew that maybe they were not possible at all in this life, malnutrition, maybe to put it bluntly, it was the pain of lovesickness..."
At this moment, Zhilan stood up, she knew that Liu Zhuo was really drunk, these secrets that were nothing between them, but they were also said to be miserable, and if she continued to talk about it, I am afraid she should be distressed again.
"Ah Zhuo, you drank too much, go, I'll take you to rest!" After speaking, Zhilan glanced at Li Junqi and said, "Don't go back tonight, you and Liu Zhuo sleep in the guest room!" ”
It's already like this, how can I go back!
But Liu Zhuo was not obedient at all, and with a flick of his big hand, he shook Zhilan's hand away, there were some things that she had to say today, and she was embarrassed to say it when she was sober, if she didn't say it while she was drinking, then I am afraid there would be no chance.
"Zhilan, go sit down!" Liu Zhuo pointed to the chair next to him, drunk, completely drunk.
Gao Minlang didn't speak, he didn't say anything, Li Junqiu didn't know what to pour himself another glass of wine, Zhilan got up, and brought those cold dishes back to the kitchen to heat. At the dinner table, there are three drunk people, let her be, say whatever you want!
"Gao Minlang, on weekdays, you are the leader and director of the company, not smiling, majestic, but is Zhilan worse than you?" Liu Zhuo's eyes couldn't open themselves, but at this time, they instantly widened, she was questioning the man, and she couldn't wait to rush over and grab him by the collar for an answer. But isn't the answer obvious: "Not bad, she's no worse than anyone else, not to mention that your father has a lot of money, even if he is the richest man in the world, what?" If he doesn't agree, don't you even dare to ask for marriage? I want to ask you, if Zhilan doesn't force you today, when are you going to give her an answer, a month, a year, or let her wait another ten years? ”
Gao Minlang was silent, Liu Zhuo was using the strength of wine to fight for Zhilan, he knew. Zhilan is happy to have such a heart-to-heart friend, and he shouldn't have any excuse to refute her statement, telling her: "In fact, there are more unspeakable reasons than this!" "First, she is Zhilan's best friend, second, today is a big day for her and her good buddies, and secondly, they are colleagues!
Simply, let her go and let her vomit as fast as possible.
"At the end of the year, I will go back to Lanzhou, at that time, in this city, only you are her closest and most trusted person, as a sister for many years, I entrust her to you, please, take good care of her, don't make her sad!" Saying that, Liu Zhuo gave Gao Minlang a wine, and poured himself a glass, then staggered to his feet, raised the wine glass in front of Gao Minlang, and bowed at ninety degrees: "Please!" "And then, drink it all!
Zhilan stood in the kitchen, tears raining down!
How could she not be moved, that woman, who said so much, was actually not accusing Gao Minlang, but paving the way for her own happy life, she was afraid that after she left, she would not feel a trace of warmth in this cold city alone, and she was also afraid that Gao Minlang's middle-of-the-road character would hurt herself, her intentions were good, how could Zhilan not know.
Li Junqiu stood up, picked up Liu Zhuo, and walked towards the guest room, saying as he walked: "You talked about so many things about Zhilan all night, and after that, you have to tell you to me!" ”
Zhilan stood there, her hands and feet stiff, saying that it was a hot dish, but the dish was put in the microwave and she forgot to open it.
Suddenly restrained by a pair of big hands on his waist, and then there was weight on his shoulders and neck, Gao Minlang put his head on her shoulder, without saying a word, he just wanted to hold her like this.
After a long time, Zhilan said, "Isn't it uncomfortable to drink so much wine?" ”
Gao Minlang shook his head, he said, "Liu Zhuo is blaming me, I know!" Are you blaming me too? ”
Zhilan did not hide it: "It's weird! ”
She said it was weird.
"But it's not strange now!" Zhilan turned around, stood face to face with him, wrapped her hands around his waist, buried her head in his chest, and whispered: "It's not easy for people to live for a lifetime, don't cry if you can laugh, it's never a big deal to be able to say it calmly, she just loves me as much as you do, don't think about it!" ”
Gao Minlang tightened the strength of his hand and shook his head lightly: "It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good!" I hurt you ten years ago, but I didn't manage to grow wise like you. ”
Zhilan let go of him, looked at the closed door of the guest room, and said with self-reproach: "Ten years in Lanzhou, thanks to Liu Zhuo and her parents, I can stand in front of you so well, this kindness, I don't know how to repay it, according to the calculation of time, Liu Zhuo is younger than me, but he wants to be in front of me in everything, I have to say, I am not a competent friend!" ”
Gao Minlang comforted: "Don't think about it, I will repay it with you in the future." It's just that I really want to be able to turn back time, and I really want to accompany you through those ten years! ”
He took Zhilan into his arms again, buried his head in his neck socket, and didn't know what it was, which instantly burned Zhilan's skin.
