December 23, 2008

I stood stupidly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the snowflakes flying outside, it has been almost half a month since I returned to the 21st century, my weakened body has gradually recovered because of the coma for more than half a year, but my heart is gradually moving away from this dynasty, as if I was not a person who traveled through the past, and now I have traveled from ancient times to this strange era......

"Where do you want to go for Christmas?" Lin Che has become accustomed to my habit of being in a daze since I woke up, and he may explain this as a psychological disorder caused by my long-term coma, as for Li Yanyan's suicide before I fell into a coma, no one dared to face me, and no one even told me why I had a chance to survive.

Except for Lin Che, there are only two doctor's visits a day in front of me every day—now I don't belong to any era, but I seem to have been isolated by two eras at the same time.

"Mr. Lin, if I'm not mistaken, you have been very busy all along, and you and I are not even friends, so I can't trouble you anymore." I remember the year we dating, although it was only an underground relationship, it was still the only happy year in the 21st century. That year, except for that Christmas night, he was always busy, so busy that I spent my birthday alone.

It's really a real underground love affair!

I covered my slightly aching chest, not because my past was not worthy, but because I thought of Brother Seventeen again, this man who would see him stay where he was waiting for me whenever I turned around, never let me down, and always accommodating him......

"I'm not very busy, and besides, how busy do you think I can be?" He struggled to lift his foot, and although the splint had been removed, the doctor who saw me said that his bones had been broken in two, and several steel nails had been beaten, and it would take another half a year to rebuild if he wanted to walk neatly. "Xiaoying, do you know how lively the Olympics are in Beijing? Didn't you just say two years ago that you wanted to see it with your own eyes? I'll go with you to see the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube! ”

He moved to the drawer with difficulty: "At that time, the opening ceremony, I wished you could wake up at that time, but unfortunately you still missed it." But it's okay, I've taken them all, all of them, do you want to see them? ”

I wanted you to watch the Olympics with me, and the two of us were together, and our dreams were shattered, so we missed it—not just an event that Chinese were proud of, but we also missed it......

"Since your leg is not well. You should stay home and get some rest.

I saw the hope in his eyes as my words were extinguished. If I had been soft-hearted, I would have softened. But thirty years of killing have already made my heart already iron--in the face of the seventeenth elder brother, I can still force myself to turn back. How much more so is he.

"It's okay to be at home. Then we ......"

"I want to go to the Forbidden City. I'm ...... by myself."

I want to climb one more step in the snow. I want to take another look at the place where I met Brother Seventeen. It's just our place. You are not needed. I don't need you anymore......

The twenty-sixth day of the year 2008 in the Gregorian calendar

When I knocked on the door of the Lin family almost soaking wet, Mother Wang shouted in an almost octave high voice: "Ouch! I said Miss Zhang, Barrister Zhang, where have you been, you can go to the Forbidden City for a day and a night without coming back, do you know ......?"

"I'll take the salute, and I'll move away." The snow that fell on me melted because of the heating in the house, and the snow wet my hair and ran down my forehead.

"What did you say?" Mother Wang wanted to wipe me clean with a towel, but she was speechless when she heard my words.

"I'm moving out."

I went to the Imperial Garden where I met Brother Seventeen, but the scenery was different. I heard that it was because of the Empress Dowager Cixi's birthday, and the layout and scenery there were changed, and even the Cining Palace was changed.

Nothing is the same anymore......

Except for the mournful crows hovering over the Forbidden City at dusk, except for the snowflakes scattered in the sky, I can no longer find the slightest shadow of the past, just like a dream, but I can't catch anything in the dream! I almost rushed out of the Forbidden City with a run, walking in a festive atmosphere, I also wanted to go to find the former Prince Guo's Mansion, but not only has it changed hands several times, but it has long been closed to the public......

The place where I once lived has become a ruin; My former home has become a cultural relics unit; Everything I have ever done has become history; And my dream with the seventeenth elder brother has really become a big dream!

I remembered the commentary of the Forbidden City narrator: "Speaking of Emperor Qianlong's mother, this old queen mother is the most blessed woman in history, and it is ...... to see the scene of Emperor Qianlong giving the queen mother a birthday."

Are you really happy?

It turns out that the real thing is completely different from history - Emperor Qianlong tried to provoke a dispute between me and my sister when I was still alive, and he did not allow others to empty his rights, not to mention that he knew that my sister was not his real mother. The glory of this life depends on fighting, fighting with her husband, fighting with her sister, and fighting with her son......

Perhaps, on the night I died, the woman named Niu Lu was as elegant as a fu, and she also died—what survived was just a power machine......

"Thank you Mr. Lin for taking care of me in the past few months, I will remit the medical expenses to his account when I go back, and thank you, Mother Wang, for your care." I lifted my feet upstairs to pack my things.

"Wait!" Mother Wang wasn't going to say anything, but seeing that I was walking so resolutely, she finally couldn't help but stop me: "Miss Zhang, there are some things I think you must know." ”

"What's the matter?" Finally can't help but say it? In fact, I can guess a thing or two about many things, but I would rather pretend to be stupid, and I don't want to take the feelings of those children to heart anymore.

"Miss Zhang, Mr. Lin really likes you," of course, you are using his money to eat, of course speaking for him. I continued to go upstairs disapprerovingly, and Wang's mother hurriedly told her what she knew: "When Mr. saw the report in the newspaper that day, he immediately called your local law firm. Miss Zhang, you don't know, in fact, Mr. He has always been very concerned, what case you take, whether there is danger, he is not as ...... as you think"

"And then?" How do you care?

He turned his back on me so resolutely at the door of the court that day, I couldn't argue, I didn't need his concern!

"Sir knew that you had gone to Tibet, so he immediately chased after you. You didn't notice that Mr. 's car was following behind your car that day, your car was washed into the river by a mudslide, and the vehicles in front and behind were only trying to escape, only Mr. was desperate not to jump! ”

What did he want to say to me?

He believes in me, he believes that I don't mean to harm Li Yanyan? He believes that I just want to do my best to get the case right? He believes that Li Yanyan's death hit me harder than anyone else?

Or does he still want to accuse me as a messenger of justice like he did last time? Accusing me of being an executioner again?

"Don't tell me his leg was injured at that time." I don't believe it, I don't believe that he turned his back on me, but he saved me, and I don't need to put such a ridiculous end to my six years of devastation.

"It's not just legs!" Wang's mother wiped away her old tears: "At that time, the water was full of stones and wood, but you were not hit in the car, and when Mr. found you, the car door couldn't be opened, he smashed it desperately, and his hands were cut by glass." Forget it, the current is too fast, and the car will automatically when he carries you out, but it will push him to the bottom......"

"At that time, you hit your head badly and your whole body was covered in blood, and my husband held you up and yelled at you to leave him alone and ask them to take you to the hospital. Later, the people above tried to hang you up with a rope, but the gentleman was stuck under the car until the rescuers arrived, and by that time the rubble and wood that had rolled down from the upper reaches had smashed him all over his body, and broke four ribs......"

"Why didn't anyone tell me?" I was also very strange that I didn't think I could survive when the car rolled down, and I could imagine how much courage it took to fall into the car when the water was so fast. I don't need to describe the thrilling scene of Wang's mother, I can also imagine the tragedy at that time - I want to know why? Don't you hate me?

Thousands of miles after chasing me, don't you want to preach to me again? Why would he give his life to save me - in that case, there is little hope that he will save me by jumping down, and if I am unlucky, I may have become a corpse in the car. What gave him such courage - in my impression, in addition to his appearance and family background, he was only an authentic businessman, how could a person who had never been trained have so much courage?

"Sir didn't let me say, Sir said that you woke up and seemed to have a lot on your mind. Miss Zhang, you have been in a coma in bed for almost seven months, and my husband is not much better, he will not be able to get out of bed until the Olympics. Mr. said that you will be sad if you don't see the Olympics, and asked a friend to help you shoot it, and I will shoot everything, I'm afraid that you will be sad, Miss, you look at those discs, those commentaries are all prepared by Mr. later, and Mr. doesn't want you to know that he was in so much pain when he was lying on the hospital bed......"

"Miss Zhang, when you wake up, Mr. accompanies you every day when he is free, but have you ever seen how Mr. does reconstruction? My royal mother is not as hard-hearted as you, I can't stand it. You didn't come back when you didn't make a sound, and Mr. looked for you all night, do you know how much his leg hurts like that? ”

"Mother Wang, thank you for telling me so much and telling Mr. Lin that I, Zhang Xiaoying, owe him a life." I'm not unmoved, if he had treated me like this, I would have married a long time ago. But now that I have been married, I am powerless to pay to him compared to the debt to the Seventeenth Elder Brother.

He reminded me of the fourth elder brother, the same person I owe a lot, so indebted that I can't owe it anymore, I think of our wordless ending - perhaps, the refusal is the biggest I can make up for him, if I had rejected the fourth elder brother so decisively at the beginning, and didn't let him fall into the mud, he wouldn't be so desolate......

"Miss Zhang, can't you stay like this?" Mother Wang's eyes were full of indignation: "Then let me tell you, in fact, Mr. was at all-"

"Wang Ma!"

I turned around and found that Lin Che had already come back and stood at the door and listened for a while: "You go get a towel, Xiaoying, your clothes are wet, change your clothes and have dinner before leaving." ”

"You won't keep me?" This is very inconsistent with his businessman's nature, he has invested so much, even if he sells me, it is not enough capital, so he let me go so easily.

"No one can stop you from what you're going to do." He leaned back against the couch and closed his eyes, and I noticed that the corners of his forehead were twitching, as if he was trying to hold back something.

"I'll get you a painkiller!" I know that I shouldn't be soft on him now, and I can't respond to his feelings, so I should let him die and not give him any hope, but the way he endures the pain really makes me unbearable.

"I'll pour you a cup of hot water first."

I put a pillow on him to make him lie down more comfortably, and then I got up to pour water, and that's when I felt dizzy, and then I spun around......

Damn, forgetting that I hadn't eaten all day and was drenched in snow, and the last look was his pained expression, and- it seemed like he caught me with his injured leg to keep me from hitting the coffee table......
