Chapter 19: Part of the Truth Ten Years Ago

Zhilan didn't say a word on the way home, and Liu Zhuo knew that she must have had an unpleasant conversation with that Mr. Gao. In Lanzhou for ten years, she has never thought about any suitor, in the past, Liu Zhuo only thought that it was Zhilan Qinggao, and looked down on those rich second generations who exuded the smell of copper and those science and engineering men who had crooked melons and cracked dates, but now it seems that she has already had someone in her heart, so she can no longer pretend to be someone else!

It's just that there should be a lot of things to settle between her and that Mr. Gao.

"Honey, I haven't eaten enough tonight, can you get me a bowl of noodles when you get home?" Liu Zhuo grinned, she didn't want to look at Zhilan so boring.

Zhilan was a little sorry: "I'm sorry Liu Zhuo, let you be busy for a day." ”

"It's nothing, maybe it's new to the city, and some of you are not used to your food here. But I still love your face! ”

"Okay, I'll make it for you when I get home!"

Liu Zhuo looked at the traffic outside the car, and the neon was hanging high, thinking that he had been away from home for several days, and he didn't call his parents, and he couldn't help but feel melancholy.

"Zhilan, in fact, we are the same, right?" Liu Zhuo's eyes were full of confusion: "I broke up with Chen Zhiyang, which can be regarded as losing love, leaving my hometown and coming here, which can be regarded as far away from family affection." ”

Zhilan shook her head: "We are different, at least your parents are alive, and Chen Zhiyang's scumbag is not worth your nostalgia at all!" ”

"Isn't it unpleasant for you to talk to Mr. Gao tonight?" Liu Zhuo asked cautiously.

Zhilan thought about it, parked the car on the side of the road, and turned off the engine. Maybe she was tired, she leaned back, found a comfortable position, and then looked at Liu Zhuo on the side, and said: "The ten-year relationship between us should not be hidden, but Liu Zhuo, do you know, between me and Gao Minlang, I never dared to mention it to anyone." We have known each other since we babbled, and I used to naively think that our relationship was untouchable, but I was too naΓ―ve after all! Zhilan smiled bitterly, and the corners of her eyes became moist.

Liu Zhuo raised his hand to gently wipe away her tears, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

"And then, what happened?"

Afterward? When she thought of it, Zhilan always chose to escape, which was not only an unbearable pain in her life, but also the beginning of her family's fragmentation!

"Later, that is, the year of the college entrance examination, my father was in a traffic accident because of drunk driving, and the person who was hit and killed was Gao Minlang's mother."

Zhilan don't look over, look out the window, although the lights at night are soft, but still give people a cold and helpless feeling, every street lamp illuminates only a small area around it, and the little place in Zhilan's heart, since the accident ten years ago, there has been no light coming in, ten years, she has never found her own lamp.

Liu Zhuo had long thought that something must have happened to her and Gao Minlang before, but he didn't expect it to be such a cruel thing. Childhood sweethearts suddenly became immortal enemies, and no one could accept it.

"My dad was in prison for 10 years, and I know the dangers of drunk driving, and I feel that my dad deserves it, so I have never defended my dad. The only thing I begged him was if he could not be angry with me, not to give up our relationship, but in his heart my father was no different from a murderer, and I was the murderer's daughter, and he said he would never forgive me! ”

"Because my father drove someone else's car, we had to compensate the family and give the deceased a pension, so we sold the house and took out all our savings, so it can be said that the family was bankrupt and in debt. My mother divorced my father shortly after he was imprisoned, and the day after my college entrance examination, she left without leaving a word, and to this day, I haven't seen her for ten years. ”

Liu Zhuo turned to the side and hugged Zhilan tightly, what kind of pain should the eighteen-year-old girl endure back then, only to struggle to survive until now, she goes to work every day, but who would have thought that she was so miserable behind her, she was glad that she had been by Zhilan's side for ten years, otherwise how would she survive this long ten years alone, and survive the dark nights one after another.

Zhilan didn't cry, but Liu Zhuo couldn't cry, the first time she heard this, no wonder Zhilan was reluctant to mention it, because every time she recalled, she sprinkled salt on her fleshy wounds.

"Go home, go home and cook noodles for you!" Zhilan patted Liu Zhuo's back.

She seemed to have become numb to the past, and she didn't even mention the most painful part of that incident!

Gao Minlang was lying on the sofa decadently, empty wine bottles were scattered all over the ground, and the room was filled with unpleasant smells, when Junqiu came, Gao Minlang was already unconscious!

Junqiu complained while cleaning up the room: "I have to wipe your ass every time, such a big person, I don't know that I bring some paper!" ”

Then Junqiu's eyes fell on a photo album on the coffee table, and the page that opened was a group photo, some young faces with immature smiles, Gao Minlang stood in the C position, and next to him was Mo Zhilan. The two of them smiled like flowers, Gao Minang only looked at the beauties around him, didn't look at the camera, and grinned with his teeth smiling. Above the photo is a line of words: A group photo of the 2008 senior three (3) class of a certain middle school graduates.

Junqiu said to himself: What a childhood sweetheart!

If you look closely, on the far left side of the photo, you can see Bai Qing, and she has a lawsuit.

Can't think about it so much, Junqiu put away the photo album, put it under the coffee table, and then dragged Gao Minlang, who was as heavy as a dead pig, back to the bedroom, put it on the bed, and he himself went to the guest room next door. It's so late, if Gao Minlang hadn't called him drunk and called Mo Zhilan's name repeatedly, he wouldn't care about his idle business, this guy who is heavy on sex and light on friends, should let him taste the taste of "a knife on the head of the color word".

The next day, Junqiu got up early, boiling porridge and fried eggs. Just waiting for Gao Minlang to get up early in the morning and be startled. Mei Zizi hummed a little song and cooked, he felt that if anyone married him, it would be a blessing for three lives... Before the conjecture was over, a big man appeared next to the open kitchen, with a stubbled beard, stepping on flip-flops, and looking at him suspiciously: "Why are you here?" When did you come? ”

Junqiu almost picked up a spatula and slapped Gao Minlang on the head a few times: "You kid is confused, if you weren't a demon last night, I wouldn't have a good spring dream, oh no, it's a sweet dream, I have to come to serve you!" ”

Gao Minlang couldn't remember what he did last night, scratched his head and looked at the time: "Then why don't you go to the company?" What kind of breakfast are you doing here, don't I go to the company for breakfast! ”

Junqiu rolled his eyes: "Why, why do you say it?" Because I'm cheap! As he spoke, he threw the spatula into the pot with a clatter, and clasped his fists and sleeves: "It's time to eat!" ”

At the dinner table, in order to calm Junqiu's anger, Gao Minlang kept boasting about Junqiu's breakfast, the millet porridge was soft and glutinous, the eggs were moderately soft and hard, the milk was poured just right, and the ham was cut evenly and thickly......

"You stop..."Junqiu stretched out his hand and made a "stop" gesture: "Equivalent exchange, I have been serving you for so long from last night to now, you have to let me know what kind of wind you smoked last night!" ”

In fact, last night he was psychologically panicked, after separating from Zhilan, he was already depressed, he drove around the street alone for a long time, he didn't want to go home, he was also a person when he went home, he was bored, but he didn't go home and he had nowhere else to go, waiting for Zhilan's safety message didn't wait, he was even more depressed for a while, so he bought a lot of wine and went home, holding the photo album and crying while watching, watching and drinking, drinking and calling, he thought it was called Zhilan, but he didn't expect to call Junqiu, really, His embarrassment was seen by this guy.

"I missed you last night!" Gao Minlang, who lied and didn't blink his eyes, deliberately wanted to play tricks on Junqiu.

"Come on, if you don't tell me the truth, I won't care if you live or die in the future!" Junqiu threatens him.

Gao Minlang put down his chopsticks, looked at the big man in front of him, and suddenly became a little serious: "Okay, it's okay to talk to you." Did you know that my mom has been out of this world for ten years? ”

Junqiu nodded. Gao Minlang asked again: "Then do you know how she died?" ”

"Didn't you say there was a car accident?"

"Yes, and the perpetrator is Mo Zhilan's father, I just picked him up from prison yesterday!"

Li Junqiu was dumbfounded, this amount of information is a bit big!

"Sometimes I don't even know what kind of fate we have, maybe it's a bad fate. Growing up together, our parents are classmates, so the relationship between the two families is good, often move around, since the four adults love to joke with us, and the older I get, the more I take this kind of joke seriously, so some things come naturally, for example, I confessed to her, she didn't twist, and readily agreed. It's just that I didn't expect to confess on the first day, and something happened on the second day! ”

Junqiu sighed: "Is it really so unlucky? And what about later? ”

"She didn't say a word, she didn't say a word for her father, I thought she would beg me, don't sue, don't ask for compensation, but at that time she didn't say anything, she just begged me not to give up the relationship between us, I thought she was selfish, only caring for herself, so I was even more angry. In addition, at that time, I heard a lot of gossip, saying... There was an unspeakable secret between my mom and his dad, and now it's not just the matter between men and women, but I knew it was at the time. So I once thought that his father was just going to clear his name, so he did not hesitate to kill my mother, but in the name of drunkenness, he was a veritable murderer. I became angry with her for this, and for a time I hated her to the extreme. not only broke up decisively, but also used my right to respond to the school's student union to organize the whole school to laugh at her, abuse her, and snub her... Say she's a murderer's daughter! ”

"Gao Minlang, you are really ruthless, for a girl who is so infatuated with you, you can do this kind of thing? How painful she must be! ”

Gao Minlang lowered his head and said in a choked voice: "I also realized later that I was really a bastard when I did that!" It's just that I was already with Bai Qing at that time. ”

"And what about later?" Junqiu then asked.

After that, she never came to school again, until one day, her classmates were rumored that she had depression and almost committed suicide by cutting her wrists! I knew then how much I had gone too far, but I didn't have the courage to go to her. I don't even know if she took the college entrance exam, because I haven't seen her since..."

"If I were Mo Zhilan, I wouldn't forgive you!" Junqiu was a little angry: "I'm going to work!" ”

But seeing the message pushed on the mobile phone, Junqiu stopped, looked at Gao Minlang and said, "Your girlfriend's hotel has an accident!" ”
