Chapter 81: Farewell (Part II)
She betrayed our feelings twice, but now I'm relieved. Maybe she is not wrong to pursue the life she wants, but now our values are in conflict.
I lingered outside the security door of her house, hesitated, and finally rang the doorbell. After a moment of pause, it was not her who opened the door, it was her aunt, still holding Dudu in her hand.
I asked, "Auntie, is Shen Qian here?" She said, "She's out, it's really unfortunate that she's just gone, what's the matter?" Come, you go into the house and wait, I'll make a call for you to call her back. ”
Auntie enthusiastically poured tea, and I picked up Dudu and walked around. Dudu is naughty and lively, like Shen Qian, very cute.
Inadvertently, I walked into the cloakroom with Dudu in my arms, I stood in front of the mirror with her in my arms, and looked closely, Dudu was not afraid of life at all, and made naughty faces at me.
Shen Qian's biggest bargaining chip for my divorce was Dudu, her big name is Xu Yuanqian. Is Shen Qian neurotic? The child's surname is Xu, and he also borrowed the far character in my name, which is ridiculous!
She said that the child was my flesh and blood, and threatened that if I didn't get a divorce, I would go to my house and make a big fuss.
As Dudu grew older, I stared at the child in the mirror, and the naked eye couldn't seem to tell how similar this child was to me. Maybe it's because Dudu was still young, but I didn't have the details to find out about it in the past.
Of course, if she is my biological child or not, you can find out 100% if you find a hospital to do a paternity test.
I didn't tear my face with Shen Qian immediately because I basically believed her words at that time, and I credulously believed that Dudu was my daughter; Second, I understand her temper, and it is not groundless to make trouble at home.
My concerns are completely different now than they were then. I ended up with an out-of-body experience and completed the mission of the catastrophe. When it came to interrupting the mission, I was about to die, and I was able to sort out the twists and turns. If not, I will still believe Shen Qian without hesitation as before.
Dudu is less than two years old and doesn't speak much, but "Dad" and "Mom" are extremely fluent. Xu Baihong is not at home all the year round, and at this moment, Dudu actually shouted tentatively at Ding Xiaofei, a strange man who had only met once: "Dad".
I didn't pay attention to it, I thought it was ridiculous. Thinking I was joking with her, Dudu raised her voice and shouted, "Daddy," jumping and dancing.
Hearing the sound, the aunt stepped into the cloakroom and bent down to take Dudu away. "The child is young and ignorant, and when he catches a man, he calls Dad, don't you mind."
I said to my aunt, "It's fine. Auntie, I'm too late in a hurry, you find a piece of paper and a pen, I'll leave a note, please help me transfer it to Shen Qian. ”
After my aunt prepared the pen and paper, she explained to me vigorously: "She just forgot to pick up her mobile phone when she went out today, otherwise she would have been in touch a long time ago, and she wouldn't have kept you waiting." ”
"It's fine." I picked up my pen and hurriedly wrote down a few big words: Shen Qian, I'm leaving, no matter what, thank you for taking care of me during this time. Say goodbye, please cherish!
I almost habitually wrote it as Qin Yuan, and I changed it to Ding Xiaofei's words along a small horizontal stroke.
Shen Qian and I may be destined to be inseparable, and we will not be able to consummate, and we will not even be able to meet each other for this final farewell.
I turned around and walked out of the community, unloaded the heavy psychological burden, and immediately felt lighter. The day's farewell was a successful one.
As the bus returned, I shielded my hand from the rays of the setting sun. My face is hidden in the shadow behind my hands, and I will stare at the last of the glare and the light and shadow of the flesh.
Along the way, looking at the passengers up and down, I felt a lot more relieved. When I went out early in the morning, the burden in my heart was completely unloaded at this moment. Looking back on my short 30-year life, there have been gains and losses.
My parents are in good health and my family is happy. But I don't have time to be filial to my parents, and I can only repay Yin Hui's affection for me in the next life.
Shen Qian and I have been sorting out and messing up, and we have been separated and combined for so many years, but we have not achieved good results. The yearning and pursuit of love must eventually be let go.
My career is thriving, and I can count it as both fame and fortune. I set up my long-awaited personal law firm, met the goal I set for myself by the age of 30 when I graduated from college, and I overfulfilled the assignment ahead of schedule.
At the same time, I was cunning and lost the trust of my only friend.
I am unwilling, and I owe everything I care about to everyone around me. I am not reconciled to not being able to repay them with practical actions.
I owe my parents a grandson and confession, I owe Yin Hui a complete marriage, I owe Zhang Zheyi a trust, and I owe Shen Qian a kindness.
……
Back at Ding Xiaofei's residence, I returned everything to the way it was. Lie back on the bed, clutching the last straw I wrote down.
I slowly broke free from Ding Xiaofei's body, and Li Zecheng silently observed on the side.
After Ding Xiaofei woke up, the note in his hand accidentally slipped to the edge of the bed when he got up. He went in and out and began to pack his bags, unable to detect the note in the depths of the darkness, and my last efforts were in vain.
He used his mobile phone to buy a ticket online for 8 o'clock in the evening, and then boiled water to boil instant noodles. As he ate, he seemed to think of something, and then stuffed something into his pack.
Li Zecheng saw the opportunity, and within his line of sight, kicked the note up with his foot, almost ten centimeters high. The note fluttered like a floating feather and fell back to the ground again.
Ding Xiaofei noticed the note, bent down to pick it up, and flipped it on the front and back. He found the handwriting, and Li Zecheng and I nervously moved to him to watch.
"Please, Ding Xiaofei, don't go!" A line of handwriting caught his eye, and he looked at the note in a daze and hesitated. Briefly, with a hint of surprise, he moved and threw it directly into the trash. Instead, he sped up his noodle eating, stacked his heavy bag at the door, and changed his shoes into place. It seemed that he was ready to go at any moment.
Li Zecheng looked at me blankly and asked, "Your note doesn't work at all, Brother Qin, is he leaving?" You're just going to stop taking action? ”
I said helplessly: "I don't know what I can do, just let it be." ”
At this time, Li Zecheng was anxious, and shouted at me angrily: "What do you mean that you have done everything?" I don't see what you've done. ”
He turned to the countdown of his watch and handed it to me, and then said, "Brother Qin, you still have more than 25 days left." 25 days is a lot of time, how can you not cherish it so much? Your attitude is too negative, what should I do if you give up? Yes? You can't be so selfish, I don't want to die yet. ”
