Chapter 99: Tragedy
Roses and red wine were placed on the glass table in the living room, Kai Ming came out of the kitchen, saw that the visitor was Zhang Wei, paused in his footsteps, looked at the flowers and red wine in a daze, and did not respond to Zhang Wei's greeting.
The wife behind him saw it, bypassed him, greeted the guest with a smile, let Zhang Wei sit on the sofa, glanced at his sister, and asked her husband to help in the kitchen under the pretext of preparing dinner.
"Why did he come?" asked Kemin as he wiped the droplets of water on the stove.
When the green onion was cut halfway, An Yi stopped the kitchen knife in her hand, looked at her husband's back and said, "He and An Yi are together." ”
Kaiming froze in place, the rag clutched together, "Why did you get better all of a sudden?"
"Suddenly?" An Yi took off the apron on his body and hung it on the wall hook, "Young people's feelings are all wind and fire, others can't guess when they will burn, as a sister, I will bless them, I hope you think the same way." ”
"Of course I will bless them if they truly love each other. ”
"What are you worried about?"
"I think this man approached Angel with ulterior motives. ”
What can you do? You're clearly looking for an excuse to keep them from being together.
"You think too much, Zhang Wei is not only handsome, a gentleman, but also wealthy, and he can't find a few such men with lanterns. ”
"But I always feel ......"
If he continued to guess, would he guess that his wife was behind the scenes?" "Okay, okay, I don't expect you to accept them, but I have spent a lot of time preparing the next dinner, don't make trouble for me and ruin the good atmosphere created for them." ”
He nodded, and it remains to be seen whether he will do so, interrupting his wild speculation first.
When the dish was served, Angel unscrewed the cork of the red wine with a stopper, poured it into the wine cup, shook it twice, and waited for the wine to wake up.
The food and wine were pure, and there was a faint fragrance of roses, and the atmosphere in the room was good, until Kai Ming sat down at the dinner table.
"Ahem. "As a wife, it is necessary to remind that he is caught between two lovers.
The cough was ignored, well, with his eyes in action, he finally got out of there and returned to his wife. This situation happened before the meal was eaten, and he was no longer expected to be honest in the future.
"Zhang Wei, I heard that you often go to France. "Let's find a topic to break the silence first.
"Yes, because I own a bar, I often have to go over and pick up a good collection of wines, which are very good for growing grapes and produce good wines. ”
"Do you need to go to a foreign country to buy goods in a bean-sized bar?"
"Ha, although the bar is small, the quality can not be reduced, plus I personally love to collect red wine, every time I go to France is also a kind of learning and exchange, I often hear people say that a tailor who does not go to the cloth line is not a good tailor. ”
Fortunately, Zhang Wei showed a gentleman's side and did not compete with her husband.
Angel raised her glass and said, "Your professionalism makes me look forward to this bottle of red wine even more, come on, cheers." ”
Appreciation is the bridge between two people to build a relationship. While the cup was being released, he gave them a boost to go further, "Angel has always wanted to go to Paris, why don't you make an appointment to go together?"
"Sister, I'm only interested in the handbags there. ”
"Then you can go and check it out, and maybe you can buy a lot of handbags. ”
"You can't go all the way to France for a handbag, you can buy everything in China. She said.
Zhang Wei said to her with a smile: "For luxury items like brand-name handbags, due to the high import taxes, it will be much more expensive to buy in China than abroad, and sometimes it can be worth the price of a plane ticket." ”
"You can buy a bag and travel, how cost-effective, sister, what are you hesitating about?"
"This ......"
Kai Ming couldn't hold back again, "What kind of world is it now? Demonstrations everywhere, don't keep running abroad if you have nothing to do, stay in China to be safe." ”
The husband was always making trouble, and he couldn't help but kick him under the table.
The topic at the dinner table is going back and forth between the end of the world and the food crisis, and finding a bad entry point to match them.
After dinner, gathered on the sofa, the TV set reported the news, and the military drove the tank car onto the road, and the current situation was not optimistic. Turning the other way, it's all old dramas that are played repeatedly, I haven't seen a new drama on the film for a few days, everyone is only concerned about grabbing food resources, no one invests in business anymore, and the whole world seems to have stopped running.
"It's terrible to see this, let's play video games. "Look for a little opportunity to play together to get closer to the relationship between the two.
The three of them did not object, the game disc was sent to the console, and the tennis ball was selected in the game item, and Angel took the game controller and waved at the TV. The two men on the couch sat still.
The ball went out of bounds and deliberately lost a game, "Zhang Wei, it's time for you to play." ”
"Sister, there are still three rounds. ”
"I'm a little tired and want to take a break. ”
Zhang Wei grounded the handle, and Kai Ming also left the sofa, "I also want to move." ”
Angel handed him the handle, alas, and it didn't work out.
The sisters sat together on the couch and watched what they did.
Kai Ming moved his arm and said to Zhang Wei: "Although you have a plaster cast on your left hand, I will not show mercy. ”
Zhang Wei shrugged, "Of course, if you show mercy, I will be disappointed." ”
The ball crossed the barricade, Kaiming swung a smash, the ball went out of a straight line, rebounded within the opponent's corner line, Zhang Wei lost his position, and could only watch the tennis fly away.
"I hope you don't get too disappointed, I'm used to giving it my all as soon as I get on the pitch. Keming said with an eyebrow raised.
The reason why her husband is so confident is rooted in that, when he was in college, he participated in the tennis club and won the third place in the school competition.
At this time, it was his turn to serve, and the ball hit two backs and forth between the two sides, Zhang Wei's racket turned, and the ball ran out of an arc after landing, passing through his racket.
Kaiming didn't care too much about missing this goal, after all, no matter how stupid a person is, there will be times when he gets lucky.
But then, he conceded five goals in a row, and then he realized that the opponent was not simple, and Zhang Wei's ball was erratic, which was a chipping technique that only professional players can make.
"Zhang Wei, have you ever practiced?" Seeing that her husband couldn't raise his head when he was losing, he helped him spy on his opponent.
"Oh, I've been playing tennis since I was five years old, my dad hired a professional coach for me, I was selected for the Youth Tennis Masters, and I didn't make it to the quarterfinals because of a knee injury. ”
God, this guy is hiding deep enough.
At the end of the whole game, Kaiming only got one point, maybe it was still the courtesy of others.
The clock went to nine o'clock, sent the guests out of the house, turned around and returned to the living room, there was no one on the sofa, and the husband stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, watching the backs of Angel and Zhang Wei walk into the night.
Stand side by side with him, clasp your hands together and say, "Satisfied." ”
He was silent......
"It was supposed to be a beautiful meal, but it tasted sour. ”
He bowed his head.
"You owe me an explanation. ”
"Anyi, I ......"
"You've got a crush on Angel. ”
He covered his face with his hands for a moment, then let go and said, "Yes, I like her." ”
"Why?" this kind of straightforwardness makes people dizzy, "Why her, she is my sister, can't it be Jiang Yan, or another woman?"
"I'm sorry. His gaze turned outward, "I used to think that I had reached the state of perfection and would not be affected by the world, but in front of her, I was completely out of control, and my heart was involuntarily pulled. ”
"Don't say it, I don't want to hear it anymore. "Leave him, touch his forehead, and sit on the couch.
"I'm sorry. ”
"You're here for her?"
He nodded.
"Why the hell, how did things get to this point?"
"You are very similar, at first I was just comparing you to each other, but not enough to rise to that height, until that moment, when I was trampled under the feet of the Nile monster, I chose to give up, and her appearance not only led the monster away, but also rekindled the obsession that I wanted to live, like a extinguished candle light re-lit, the past is over, and I have a new life. ”
"No, you may have fallen under the black spell, by the way, it must be the gold necklace that is doing the trick, you are being blinded. ”
"Maybe the black spell and the gold necklace do have the ability to change reality, but in the year I left, I realized a higher level, where there is no interference, even the black spell and the gold necklace can't do it, Angel is the only one who can stay there. ”
"Haha, Anyi look at the good things you have done, how good can you make your husband leave you. ”
He walked over, squatted down in front of the sofa and said, "Anyi, you need to pick yourself up again." ”
Feeling that he would have to lose him forever, he hugged his neck and didn't let go, "Kaiming, don't leave me again, we have a child now, we can watch him be born, although he can't grow up, but he must hope that we can all be by his side." ”
"I'm never here, let alone leave. "The sound in my ears is like the edge of the cape.
Two lines of tears rolled down his cheeks, if the day he left was a torment, now is the end of the world, and the eyes see only gray, without a trace of life.
"What are you going to do next? Are you going to confess to Angel?"
"I will not do anything, I will not confess to her, and I will remain by her side until the fullness comes. He kept squatting and didn't respond anything to his wife's hug.
"I see, in your arms, there is no place for me. Taking a deep breath, he let go of him and walked into the bedroom alone, the door slammed shut, the light was not turned on, and the wedding photos on the bedside were faintly glowing white.
The world is doomed to destruction, and marriage is coming to an end.
When I touch my belly with both hands, I can't feel the presence of the fetus.
Child, what can't mom bring to you, and since birth is destined to be a tragedy, why should we struggle? Rest assured, you will not leave alone, I will always be with you.
In the moonlit courtyard, ginkgo biloba leaves flutter on the grass, and the turbulent current rolls up the wet leaves, scratches the children's bicycles, and falls back to the grass.
As is customary, the wife will go to the bath at this time, but there is no one in the bathroom.
"Anyi, have you slept?"
The bedroom did not respond, pushed the door open, and in the darkness, she sat on the floor with her back against the bed, her head tilted to one side, her long hair covering her face, and only one ear was exposed. His left hand was spread on the ground, a red cut on his wrist, and blood was spreading across an open folding knife.
