Chapter 45: Breaking Through the Obstacles (2)
When Sister Xiaojuan walked past me, she didn't look at me, and only left five words - "please let me go".
"Excuse me", heh, to her, I'm just the one in the way, right? Wherever she was, I was an eyesore to her. She also said "troublesome", but where is this to trouble me, it clearly reveals the meaning of troublesome to me.
I don't understand why she reminded me of what she just said. Are you warning me? Is it another unmistakable hint after the peach blossom chop? But in any case, when she said those words, I could no longer delude myself into thinking that she had given me a peach blossom chop unintentionally, and that the delicate and tactful rhetoric was just an excuse for her to take every step of the way.
This man's heart is so terrible! Sister Xiaojuan, I have only two sides of the relationship with her, and she has made her suspicious and resentful of me so much! However, even I can't help but ask, what did I do wrong? She said let me do my part, don't think about things that are not mine, but I have always followed the rules at work, and I have never coveted the heart of overstepping, even for the position of deputy manager, I have been prevaricating from the beginning, why did Zhang Xiaoqi say it instead? She even said that Kairan Branch lacked talents, she was very familiar with Mr. Guo, and seemed to have the intention of recommending me, but shouldn't she be the most familiar with Chen Ran? If you really want to recommend me, why do you need to make such a big detour? Listening to the meaning of her words, it seems that she wants to use this recommendation as an exchange chip. But I never understood what she wanted to trade with me!
My body remained in her stiff position, and the knuckles of my fingers clutching the doorknob were blue and white from too much force. The mind is full of cow hair, and countless video segments flash one by one. "Peach blossoms cut rotten peach blossoms", "Don't think about things that are not you", ......, the words of Pleasant Goat and Sister Xiaojuan were still in my ears, my eyelids jumped, and I looked up suddenly, as if I saw countless stars and stones flying towards me, leaving me with nowhere to hide and nowhere to hide. Chen Ran! Yes! It is only possible because of Chen Ran! She must have known my thoughts about Chen Ran, so she asked me to keep my duty, reminded me not to think about things that are not my own, and even threw out the bait of recommending me to Mr. Guo without mentioning Chen Ran, and she could transfer me away from Chen Ran's side, and she did not hesitate to use a multi-pronged feng shui object like peach blossom chopping. She is so deliberate, soft and hard, and vows not to give up until she achieves her goal both internally and externally...... I couldn't help but feel a chill on my back, and my palms were soaked with layers of cold sweat, Sister Xiaojuan, she is such a powerful character!
It's just that I don't understand, how did she know my thoughts about Chen Ran? I asked myself that I was so well disguised that I didn't even know that Chen Ran, who was close by, how could she be able to see everything after just two quick encounters? Is there really a theory of cause and effect in the world? Because I covet her husband, what kind of woman's natural sense of protection and sensitivity for what she has is able to feel like she is in the face of a great enemy?
Take a deep breath, lower your head and smile bitterly. Whether it is work or life, I have always been cautious and walking on thin ice, but I always unknowingly become a thorn in the side of others, Zhang Xiaoqi is like this, and Sister Xiaojuan is the same. This is my helplessness, and it is my sorrow. For Zhang Xiaoqi, I can still have a clear conscience, after all, Wang Haozhi is not an exaggeration for me to say passers-by, and there can be no trace in my emotional world. But for Sister Xiaojuan, can I still be so arrogant? Although her piercing words and behavior are unacceptable, isn't it understandable to be me and any man's wife? They are just defending themselves against foreign enemies in order to protect their marriage, so what reason do I have to complain about people's suspicions, and what qualifications do I have to slander each other's methods for not being righteous?!
I sighed heavily in my heart, and my whole body was as weak as if I had been quenched and tortured in fire and water, and I felt that endless sorrow was coming to me, and my legs were so sore that I couldn't stand steadily. I leaned against the door and looked at the exquisite carvings on the ceiling, so glitzy and charming that I was close at hand, and what I had doubted, what I feared, had now become a real reality. So does it also mean that Chen Ran and I can't even be brothers and sisters? After all, from the perspective of Chen Ran's wife, who would believe that her husband was only a brother and sister with a woman who was not related by blood because of pure concern and friendship? Who would tolerate this timed bullet appearing by her husband's side at any time when she has already torn her face with the other party, no matter what kind of role.
My heart shrank, and the long-lost heartache came rushing in, gradually engulfing me. If I can't even stay by Chen Ran's side as a little sister, what role can I hope to exist in his world? Or did Sister Xiaojuan really send me away from afar, so that I and him could not see each other all year round, until they finally disappeared into each other's distant future? If this is the case, how should I face the life of becoming more and more alien to him, and one day, when we sit at the ends of the world, will he still remember that there was once a little sister like me, existing in his existence?
I stumbled out of the bathroom and back to my seat in the midst of this foreseeable outcome and despair about the future. The wedding banquet has begun, only the intoxication of pushing the cup and changing the lamp and the festive greetings are left in the staggered room, and I have never heard the newlyweds laughing, and the old people crying. Especially when I saw Chen Ran and Sister Xiaojuan standing side by side, toasting to the newlyweds or accepting toasts from others, they smiled and nodded, drinking and drunk together, so they looked like husbands and wives were in deep affection, I couldn't help but say to the Pleasant Goat beside me: "Yang Xi, I'm a little uncomfortable, I want to go first." “
"Huh? Ah," Pleasant Goat didn't seem to expect me to suddenly call him by name, and before he could react, "Hey, you Pleasant Goat listened to your ears, and I didn't understand that I was calling myself by my name" and then leaned over and asked with concern, "What's wrong, what's uncomfortable?" ”
"It's okay, it's just that my head hurts a little, I guess I'm too tired during this time, just take a rest," I reluctantly coped.
"Okay, you go first, anyway, there are so many people here, no one will pay attention." Turning his head to look at me, he said, "Tut, look at your face, like a frosted eggplant, the administration department is indeed the hardest during this time, alas, your manager Wang really doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, go back and rest!" Dare to love you is more tired than the bride and groom! ”
I squeezed a smile at her, didn't want to say anything more, picked up my bag and quietly walked out of the hotel.
The midday sun was not gentle, hanging high in the air and radiating dazzling golden light unscrupulously. The huge sycamore branches and foliage on the sidewalk have begun to flourish, and the sunlight is shining through the cracks, reflecting speckled clouds of light that make people's eyes sour. There were not many people on the streets, they were all in a hurry, and no one stopped for anyone. A warm wind blew, and everything seemed to be lazy, standing listlessly and indifferently. I looked at the quiet or noisy world in front of me, and the tears that had been stored for a long time rolled down without scruples.
Looking up at the sky, the clear blue sky is as clear as a wash, like the eyes of a lover, deep and charming. I stopped, looked at it quietly, let the tears wet my face, wet my heart full of nostalgia and couldn't ask for it, and washed it hard, leaving no room for it. It seems that this is the only way for me to find a little comfort and strength in the confusion of not being able to find a trace.
Suddenly, I felt a light in my hand, and a huge force dragged me back into the rolling red dust of the present world. In the confusion, I saw a motorcycle pass by and crash away, and my bag was hanging in the other person's hand and drifting away with the whistle. It was only after a moment of inquest that I suddenly realized a tragic reality - I had been robbed.
The sun is still showing off its power overhead, raising its eyes, the cars and people around me are still moving forward in the established rhythm, and the thrilling scene seems to have never happened and annihilated the traces, no one sees, no one cares, I am like a lonely homeless man, looking at the empty hands, shouting, crying, dazed, nowhere to be found. In a trance, I realized that my mobile phone, wallet, and keys were all away from me in an instant, and I had no phone, no money, and I couldn't open the door, and I even became a barrier to my way home!
Finally, in the back and forth cycle of asking for directions on foot and then asking for directions on foot, I found the nearest police station and reported the case, and it has been three hours since I made the record, dragging my tired body step by step to the downstairs of my home, and the familiar grass and trees in the past also showed a dejected look at this moment, just like my current appearance. I borrowed a phone from the man guarding the door to contact the master who picked the lock, and it was already evening. I looked forward to the gazebo of the community to sit down, the Xiuhe River in the distance whimpered and flowed into the distance, as if singing and sympathy and pity for my misfortune, I curled up in the corner, looking at the lights of thousands of homes gradually lit up, warm tears gushed out again, the house leak happened to rain overnight, but just a few hours, I actually changed from a brightly dressed urban white-collar worker to a cutting joint, empty bag, a person who can't go back to home, as if there was nothing in an instant, yes, nothing, my heart, my love, my present and future, From the spiritual to the material, from the priceless love to the fireworks in the world, they all moved away from me in an instant, and never looked back.
There was a "Didi" horn sounded, a dazzling light came, I unconsciously closed my eyes, just at the moment of don't turn my head, a familiar and anxious voice whistled from a distance of a few meters from me, like a spring thunder forcing people to break through the quiet dusk, with unprecedented surprise and excitement - "Yue'er, I finally found you!" Finally found you! ”
