Chapter 39: Broken Love
When she came to the supermarket and chose what she needed in a dazzling array of goods, An Chengxuan always brought one thing and was put back by Yijian, she was not a chef in a five-star hotel, what kind of ginseng and abalone did she want, she was really speechless, so she walked around for a while.
"Jane?"
Hearing this, she subconsciously looked up, and a brightly dressed middle-aged woman was also looking at her hesitantly.
"You're Jane, aren't you?"
"Mrs. Zhang?" Jane was also uncertain.
After being confirmed, Yijian nodded politely, "Hello, Mrs. Zhang." ”
Mrs. Zhang took Yi Jian's hand, stretched out her arms and looked at it, "You are more beautiful than before." ”
Yijian was a little embarrassed, she was always not good at receiving such greetings, and the official said politely, "Mrs. Zhang, you have won the award, but you look younger than before." ”
"Where's your boyfriend?" Mrs. Zhang looked behind her, "I saw someone walking with you just now." ”
"Uhhh He.. Nope.."
"Don't you introduce it to Auntie, Auntie wants to see who is so discerning and snatches the daughter-in-law candidate in my heart." Mrs. Zhang looked unhappy with disdain, and said half-jokingly and half-innocently.
"I found it, the animal butter you wanted." An Chengxuan looked at the bottle in his hand as he walked, and came to Yijian's side.
"You, aren't you An Chengxuan?"
An Chengxuan also looked at Mrs. Zhang, who was a little familiar, with a slight surprise, put her hand down, and nodded, "Hello." ”
"So I just saw you, what's wrong with you two?" Mrs. Zhang wanted to say, how can the two of you hold hands, go to the supermarket so intimately, even if you are a brother and sister with a good relationship, it will not be so fast as grinding your ears and temples, just now you look more like a couple.
"Let's do something." An Chengxuan didn't deny anything, but he didn't admit anything.
"Oh, I thought..."Mrs. Zhang just swallowed it back when she reached her mouth, you can't eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense, as a business person, she knows better than ordinary people, "Oh, it's okay, I just want to see who goes to the supermarket with us Yijian, it turns out to be you, the relationship between your two brothers and sisters is really good." ”
Cheng Xuan pursed his lips and smiled.
"Then I won't bother you, say hello to your mother for me, and invite her to tea another day."
"Yes, Mrs. Zhang."
Seeing Mrs. Zhang walk away for a while, Yijian's nervous heart finally let go a little, and she approached Cheng Xuan's ear and asked, "Why didn't you explain just now?" ”
"Explain what?" An Chengxuan pretended to be confused.
"Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Zhang will mention it in front of your mother?" Yijian looked at him worriedly.
An Chengxuan, who was pushing the shopping cart, suddenly stopped, turned his head, and said very seriously, "It would be better if we were discovered, so that we don't have to hide it anymore." ”
"You.. No, you can't.." Yijian turned her face and lowered her head.
"Why?"
"Mom, she can't accept it."
"If you don't try, how will you know!"
"I..." she just knew, because An Chengxuan was not her, and he didn't understand her situation, if he knew... He should have understood why she was scared, she just wanted to spend more time with him, even if it was just a minute or a second more.
"Forget it, let's go back first, I'm hungry." Yijian let go of the handle of the cart and walked straight ahead.
Originally, I just wanted to tease her, but I didn't expect Yijian to take it seriously, and I didn't feel cute, so Cheng Xuan followed up with two steps.
"Need my help?" An Chengxuan rolled up his sleeves and looked eager to try.
"Uh... I don't think so. I've never seen An Chengxuan enter the kitchen, thinking about it, I still don't take this risk, and Jian quickly declined.
An Chengxuan didn't want her consent at all, so he meddled in himself.
"Is this an octopus or a cuttlefish?" An Chengxuan lifted the bag in his hand and looked at it in disgust.
"Octopus." He replied without replying.
"How do you know?"
"Because it has eight legs." Hey, this guy with knowledge but no common sense.
"Ahh It's alive! An Chengxuan retracted his hand in shock.
Yijian was startled by his scream, "Or else? Yi Jian said angrily that a big man was still afraid of a few dying octopuses.
"Why don't you help me dice the tomatoes, and I'll handle the octopus." Yi Jian said and walked over and changed places with Cheng Xuan.
Yijian, who was concentrating on cleaning up the octopus, raised his head and glanced at An Chengxuan, full of questions, "What are you doing?" ”
"I'm cutting tomatoes." The answer was quick.
I saw An Chengxuan cut the tomato with a knife, and then broke it hard, and the juice of the tomato slid down his palm,... Belch... It doesn't seem like this is the time to show your strength.
Yijian felt a bitter feeling in her heart, and said speechlessly, "Young Master An, I want diced tomatoes, not tomato juice." ”
I really don't know if he's here to help or if he's here to help.
After a while, An Chengxuan shouted again, "Ah!"
Yijian looked back again distracted, "What's wrong?" ”
An Chengxuan's fingers were cut open, blood flowed out of his fingers, and Yijian hurriedly stepped forward, pressed his wound, and blamed worriedly, "Are you okay?" So it's good to sit outside. ”
"I just want to spend more time with you." An Chengxuan frowned. It was not easy to take Lin Ma's mother, but I didn't expect this woman to appreciate it at all.
Jane smiled, "Really? "He's going to spend the whole day in the kitchen with her, and sometimes boys are really nervous.
finally invited An Chengxuan out, and she settled down to concentrate on cooking.
"No, you can't!" is also simple and sharp, and makes a serious statement.
Cheng Xuan had no choice but to put the carrots back into his bowl.
How old are people and picky eaters, because usually everyone in the family is there, and she can't say anything in person, but today she finally got the opportunity.
"Carrots have so much plant fiber, which can lower blood sugar and lipids, enhance resistance, and also nourish the liver and eyes, which is most suitable for people like you who have been working in front of the computer for a long time, why don't you eat it." Yijian began to speak bitterly.
Cheng Xuan turned a deaf ear and continued to be indifferent.
Yijian frowned, picked up a piece and stuffed it directly into his mouth, An Chengxuan's expression changed instantly. Perhaps An Chengxuan is looking forward to the future of a scientist who can invent the technology that can work without a computer.
Is there really no hope this time?
In the dim light, something slipped across the cheeks, salty. It turned out to be tears. Ina curled up at the head of the bed, raised her hand to brush a drop, and looked at it in a daze for a long time.
The scenes of the past are showing in front of my eyes. The little bits and pieces of the past linger.
In the past, campuses in the United States.
She was competing there and was injured for the first time, and he carried her on his back and ran to the hospital.
His excellence was ostracized by foreigners, and she was the first to stand up and fight for him.
The first time she was harassed by a black man in the club, his strong arm wrapped around her waist, and the temperature of that hand was still clear at the moment.
The tightness in my chest was about to suffocate, and the more I missed, the more I wanted to scream hoarsely, until I was tired without strength.
In the wee hours of the morning, Ina got up from her messy bed, her head still groggy and the alarm clock was still ticking, and she mechanically walked out of the door and down the deserted street, clueless, not knowing how to move forward.
If it weren't for you, how would I know that love hurts so much.
In the bar, the food, the good wine, will not stop serving just because you are out of love, the lonely private room, she closed her eyes, covered her stomach, bent her legs, fell asleep, woke up again, her pride, her self-esteem made her unable to find someone to complain at will, and her strength made her unable to cry easily in front of others.
Walking out of the trouble, I found that the sky outside was bright and the road was clear.
It turns out that when the tears are endless, the longer you disguise it, the more it will pour out.
Ina bit her lip back in the office and didn't cry.
Today's time was unusually sad, and it seemed to deliberately deepen the pain of her wakefulness.
Late at night bar, strong drum beats, noisy crowds, crystal liquid transmission shimmer, Ina laughed at herself with a wine glass, measuring her glamorous circle of friends could not find a person who could talk to her, and she resolutely pressed a number on the flipped-up mobile phone contact.
Ye Luo received the call, heard her unusual tone, put down his work, and rushed to the bar.
By the time he arrived, Ina was already a little drunk, leaning against the bar, still holding a cocktail in her hand, staring at her in a trance.
Ye Luo sat down beside her, and hesitantly stretched out his hand to put it on her shoulder, "What's wrong?" ”
Only then did Ina look back at Ye Luo sitting beside her, and took a deep breath, "Ye Luo.. You're here..", and then shouted at the waiter, "Here, another glass of wine, no, two." ”
Ye Luo was surprised, and stretched out his hand to stop, "You've drunk too much." ”
"I'm okay," he took the wine from the waiter's hand and handed it to Ye Luo, "Ye Luo, drink two more glasses with me." ”
Took her wine and put it down, "Can you tell me what's wrong?" ”
Ina poured a glass of wine, "Hehe... I'm out of love. ”
"What the hell is going on, how can you fall out of love?" Ye Luo was a little skeptical that she was not talking.
"Don't you understand, it's just that I was dumped, I was dumped by An Chengxuan." Ina repeated aloud to Yelo.
"How could it be, you were fine that day."
Ina stroked the silk and propped it on the top of her head, looking at Ye Luo with misty eyes, "What if I said that we broke up a long time ago...", Ina turned back and whispered, "He fell in love with someone else, but I just didn't admit it.."
"How is that possible..."
Looking at her sad expression, it didn't seem like an empty whim, and there was a hidden sadness in her eyes, which he would never have noticed if he hadn't looked at her so closely. Ye Luo didn't intend to continue asking.
"If you need something, I'll comfort you if you need it, and if you need a joke, I'll tell you a joke." Ye Luo said seriously and sincerely.
Ina suddenly burst out crying and laughing, "You? Telling jokes? "Are you sure?
Then she suddenly quieted down, "Do you know, it turns out that love can change a lot, I don't even know myself anymore, the more I invest, the more I gradually forget myself, heh..."
It paused for 2 seconds, "I don't care about anyone's apologies, nor anyone's sympathy, I'm just a little unaccustomed to my own humility." ”
"My long-term love for so many years is still wishful thinking in the end, I am not reconciled, is it not that all unrequited love is the more you grasp it, the farther the love will go, and in the end only the ending of hope is shattered."
Ye Luo took the wine glass from Ina's hand, "Time will tell, maybe you two are really not suitable, or maybe one day you will find out how wise it is for you to leave someone who doesn't love you." ”
"Will it?" Ina looked at Ye Luo with tears in her eyes.
Ye Luo nodded.
Ina chuckled, "If I pretend to be okay, will it really be okay?" ”
"In front of me, you don't need to disguise. For a woman like you, there is no need to walk the road full of thorns! ”
Ina wanted to say something more, but she couldn't help but start rubbing her eyes a little indistinctly, and her vision wandered.
Sitting in the taxi, Ina leaned motionlessly on Ye Luo's shoulder, he took off his suit and covered her, she moved, frowned, reused to the new position, and the frowning brow slowly stretched out again.
When she woke up again, Ye Luo was no longer around, just a dark room, Ina rubbed her brows, and closed her eyes sleepily again.
Heaven will not only favor one person forever, how much luck she will give her, how much tribulation will be given to her in the future, some things can only be left to time to solve.
Ye Luo, who returned to the office, was full of Ina's painful and confused eyes in his mind, put down the pen in his hand heavily, turned around and walked to the sofa to lie down, and simply closed his eyes to recuperate.
Sometimes, I don't care about what you say, but what you don't.
The next day, Ye Luo's expression when he saw Cheng Xuan was really different, and his words were also yin and yang.
