Chapter 6: Drowning (II)
"My husband and I have been separated for many years......"
The girl meant to only let me listen, but the first thing she said made me have to interrupt her, this girl looks very young, how can she have a husband who has been separated from each other for many years, I am indeed not very good at talking, so I asked stupidly. "Girl, do you have a husband? How old are you this year? ”
The girl was a little angry when she heard what I said. "Did you know that it's rude to ask a woman's age? Can you just listen to me without talking. ”
I nodded and apologized. I thought I had drunk too much, and I was so reckless.
"My husband and I have been separated for many years, and I miss him day and night, but because of work, we haven't seen each other for many years." The girl began to cry again as she spoke, and quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. "Today, he finally came to Hangzhou, but he didn't come to see me for the first time, but went to drink tea alone."
Since they are husband and wife, they haven't seen each other for a long time, and it stands to reason that they should meet as soon as possible, and his husband went to drink tea alone, which is indeed a little annoying.
"I know where he's going, and since he's not coming to me, I'm going to take the initiative to find him, I'm pretending to be a waiter, trying to surprise him."
I thought to myself that this girl really has a heart, and she is still a person with a taste for life, and she can think of pretending to surprise her husband, which is really romantic, and his husband is in the blessing and does not know the blessing.
"But guess what?" The girl said that she was sad, and tears poured down her face. The handkerchief was already soaked, so I quickly took out a tissue and handed it to her. "He pretended not to know me, and asked me how I was going to sell my things. What's the price? ”
"It's infuriating." I blurted out that I was indeed saddened by what the girl had been through. "And then?"
"Then I was about to ask him why he wanted to do this, but he turned around and left with one of his friends, without looking back."
There are such negative people in the world.
"Do you think I should divorce him?" The girl asked, choked up.
"I can't answer this kind of emotional matter, girl." I didn't dare to give her advice, of course, I felt in my heart that since the relationship had reached this point, there was actually no need to stay up any longer. But as the saying goes, persuasion and not persuasion, I still only think about this kind of degrading thing in my heart.
"No, you have to answer me!" The girl's emotions suddenly became agitated. "If you don't answer, I won't let you go."
This girl's tone is very willful and tricky, as if she wants to spill the anger in her heart on me, which makes me a little unhappy, but think about it carefully, after all, she has been hurt so much today, and the resentment in her heart has nowhere to put it, since I have promised to be her audience, I should not bother with her anymore.
"I think it's better not to get divorced, life is in the world, and fate should be cherished." I didn't think that way in my heart, but I still said it in my mouth. Because I would definitely not offend the girl in front of me by saying this, I only hoped that she would finish speaking quickly, and I would get up and leave.
"Fate to cherish? That's what you bad men say! The girl suddenly yelled at me, which really startled me, and the West Lake was surprisingly quiet at this time, and the little girl's voice echoed around the lake like ripples.
I held back my anger, and the little girl was angry at me again and again, and even the most gentle people were afraid that they could not resist, and I didn't say anything more, and was ready to get up and leave.
The girl had just wiped away her tears, and now when she saw that I was leaving, she suddenly began to sob again. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken to you like that, but I'm really sad, I can't control myself." She buried her face in the crook of her arm again, trembling slightly.
After all, people's hearts are soft, especially when they see the little girl crying, they instinctively don't complain about her anymore, but stretch out their hands and gently pat her shoulder. "Girl, don't be too upset, want to open some." I don't have much emotional experience, so I can only say polite words to comfort her.
The girl shifted and moved closer to me, leaning on my shoulder.
I sat there like a log, not knowing what to do or what to say. I only felt that my right shoulder was slightly warm, and it was wet with her tears.
The girl's fingers ran lightly over my arm, and I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, but I grabbed her hand at once. I'm not a person who likes to take advantage of others, she cries so sadly I just want to comfort him, but I don't dare to give her a hug or anything, for fear that it will make people uncomfortable, so I can only gently grab her hand, hoping to bring her a trace of warmth in the cold night.
We're just two strangers on one side, so why bother? Who else can know all this except the breeze and the bright moon?
The girl did not refuse, but also gently gave my palm a force, a very comfortable force. I whispered a thank you.
"Girl, my friend is going to come out in a while, and you should hurry home soon, it's so late." I tried to persuade her, but she didn't respond at all, still lying on my shoulder.
"Girl......"
She finally lifted her head, and a breeze blew through her hair, so I could see her face in the moonlight. She was really beautiful, her skin was as white as jade, her eyelashes were crooked, her lips were thin and small, oozing with a reddish flush, and her eyes were blinking at me, neither humble nor overbearing.
What a beautiful woman, her sad appearance, her eyes and eyebrows, are all dazzling tears. It's just that she has her home, and she has nothing to do with me.
But I don't know why, I always feel that somewhere, this face seems to have been seen somewhere, because of the drink today, my memory is not so good, but I can realize that I must have seen this girl, but I can't think of when and where for a while? I struggled to remember, to pick up the fragments of images from my sleeping mind, to find the traces of her in my memory.
At this moment, the night is as cold as water, but my heart is a hot current.
It's her! When I finally remembered something, I was shocked. She is the beautiful female boss I saw today, but at that time she was wearing brocade and satin and golden hostas, but now she has changed into an ordinary person's dress, so I didn't recognize it for a while.
"You're the lady of the silk shop today!" I couldn't help but exclaim, trying to jump up from the stone bench, only to find that her hands were already tightly clasped by her.
"And then?" The girl suddenly stared at me fiercely.
"You! You're a demon. "I was so frightened that I couldn't give up, and I felt very remorseful in my heart, I knew that I shouldn't have stayed in West Lake, and I was caught by the goblin even if I tried to prevent it.
The girl was a little angry, and suddenly wrenched my hand behind my back, and she was so strong that I had no power to resist. "Think about it again, do you recognize me?"
"Girl, let me go, I haven't seen you at all." I begged bitterly.
"Humph! You don't even know me, why did you grab my hand just now? The girl asked sharply.
I was speechless for a moment, and I became distracted. "I just want to comfort you when you're sad, and I swear I don't think anything wrong. Girl, let me go, it's your husband who hurt you, if you want to retaliate, you can take revenge on him, this has nothing to do with me, I'm just a passerby. ”
But the girl didn't want to let me go, but grabbed it tighter, and she suddenly twisted my wrist with all her strength, and I couldn't help but cry out.
"You bad man, you broke my heart, and you said you were a passerby."
"What do you mean, girl?" I was disheartened at this point, thinking that this monster would definitely not let me go.
"Bad man, I really want to teach you a good lesson this time." The girl suddenly pulled me up and shoved me to the lake, where the aftermath of the lake stirred at my feet.
"Girl, what are you doing here? You and I don't know each other, even if you're a monster, you don't need to hurt me a passerby. "I felt like my voice had changed, and I was about to cry, and it looked like the monster was really going to kill me.
I just felt her push hard behind me, and in an instant I lost my balance, and I only felt the lake getting closer and closer to me, followed by the biting coldness and the sound of splashing water.
