Chapter 136: Theater of Memories: Pure White Persistence Act II
The smell of steak came to my nose, but I was still a little stunned to remember the teacher and uncle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Swimheart, what's wrong with you?" The man across the table sat down and asked me with concern.
He was always so gentle, but he always avoided questions, so I couldn't tell if he was happy or sad for me.
"No, I just remembered the teacher." I answered truthfully, and I rarely hid my thoughts from him in front of him.
"Oh, Ms. Yuan, when do I have to treat her to dinner, I don't want this eldest sister to think that I have neglected her."
"No, the teacher doesn't care about this, the teacher always says that as long as I'm happy..."
I replied to him on purpose, I don't know if he understood the implicit meaning of my words, but I think he could hear it.
The hand holding the knife and fork in front of him paused unnaturally, and looked at me with a hint of darkness in his eyes.
The man on the other side of the "swimmer ......" stopped talking, and I understood that he didn't know what words to use to face it, after all, he always retreated in this regard.
After a few seconds of silence, his smile crept back onto his face and said, "Swimming, eat quickly!" It's time for the steak to cool. ”
"Okay."
I took a big bite of the tender and delicious steak in my mouth, but I couldn't taste anything, it felt like chewing wax.
Recently, because of his marriage, not only have we seen each other less often, but he has also talked less and less about relationship issues between him and me.
Deliberately avoided, dead to save face, he is always like this, usually seems to be in the mix, is a business rookie that everyone envies...
I don't know if I should use the name 'business rookie' to describe him, but his business is doing well, and the pace of development has been getting faster and faster in recent years.
But our relationship seems to have turned backwards, his parents' urging to marry, his cowardice, Jiang Xiaomei's stalking, and my silence are all the culprits for all this.
However, just like human character, there are some things that are difficult to change, and you can only go with the flow.
On both sides of the table, we were like two timid people, neither of whom was willing to break the silence first.
The only sound in the room was knives and forks touching plates and wine glasses, picking up and falling.
In the silence, my mind drifted away again.
When did I find out that uncle was doing that special thing?
I don't remember at all, but that's nothing, huh...... How so? It's not an illegal incident.
I don't know why I use the word "illegal incident" to describe what my uncle did, but I think my uncle's behavior makes me think a little about it.
I didn't tell anyone about it, including the teacher and the man in front of me.
I knew that if I told them, I would definitely investigate, and the teacher and he himself had a wide range of connections, especially the teacher, if she knew that the uncle was hiding something strange from her.
No matter what, it will be very sad, don't look at the teacher's deception in the business field, in fact, she cares a lot about the trust between relatives and lovers.
So I must not tell the teacher that my uncle often went to the countryside without her, and once stayed in a restaurant called the Arden Hotel.
The hotel was on the way for him and me to get to our white hut, so I accidentally saw my uncle and some strangers enter the hotel.
Maybe they just went to talk about business, the uncle was a shrewd person, and all the money in the family was in the hands of the teacher (the teacher has always treated me as a relative, and he has no children, so he often chats with me about some family chores).
Uncle may be hiding from the teacher to do some other business, in some private money, isn't most men like this?
So I didn't want to tell the teacher about it, there was no need to ruin their relationship for such a trivial matter, and I wasn't a person who liked to make small reports.
Soon, the simple and romantic (as it should have been, I hope it is still appropriate now) little dinner drew to a close, and he silently put away his plate and cutlery.
After I had wiped the table clean, before I could hang up the rag, he suddenly came over and hugged me.
"Swimming." How many times has he called my name tonight? I think he had some particular worries tonight.
“…… I'm sorry! After a long silence, he finally said the three words in his heart.
These are the three words I've been waiting for.
But now I don't care if I forgive him or not, because I am destined to have no way to leave him in this life.
Love is giving, especially a lonely and helpless person like me, can I still take it back after I give?
Then choose to forgive them all! As long as he doesn't leave me, he won't give up, no! It should be that I will not give up on him whether he is away or not.
"Forget it, aren't you helpless? I'm not mad at you, I'm just wondering why I'm not a girl. ”
"Why can't it ...... Marry you rightfully. As I said this, tears welled up in my eyes.
There was no way to meet his gaze, so I turned my head away, my heart full of helplessness and sourness.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! ......" He buried his face in my shoulder socket and repeated these three words, his voice getting softer and softer, until I could not hear them at all.
The old wooden door closed slowly, cutting off my mournful love from the outside world, and the faint smell of soap on his body gradually filled everything that enveloped me.
I started to have no way to imagine anything anymore.
Then forget it and think about it tomorrow......

The woman's car rested on the rickety bridge, her eyes, full of hatred and viciousness, staring at the white house whose lights had been extinguished.
Yes, the house was so pure and beautiful at that time, white elegant wooden cottages. A dreamy cottage surrounded by wildflowers and woods.
How a woman wishes that what comes with him and what she has with him is herself.
"Why?!" The bright red lips didn't know if they were asking the people in the room or asking themselves.
"I always fail! Always lost! It was like that before, and it is now! ”
thought that if he finally got the wedding, he would be able to slowly enter this man's heart.
However, this man did not give her a chance to really get close at all, avoiding her tenderness, avoiding her ambiguity, avoiding all her care, and even avoiding the ...... between them
The woman didn't want to think about it anymore, her eyes were already red, and she remembered her poor and miserable childhood.
I remembered that I lost all my money again and again in the business.
remembered that the man I finally fell in love with didn't like me at all.
The woman felt like her heart was burning. No! Not only the heart, but also the brain and all the internal organs are burning.
It hurts all five inside! It hurts so much that you can't breathe!
That's how this woman feels right now.
The bright red nails unconsciously tightened the steering wheel wrapped in the soft velvet of the car, and the nails buckled into the suede, and I didn't even feel a broken one.
"Love it now! Wait until I drain all your money! I'm going to make your relationship public! I can't get it, and no one can think of it! ”
The woman thought fiercely, and when she thought about these words, her heart hurt more and more, and she was even just thinking, and she didn't know what she was going to do.
A woman is never a well-organized person who makes detailed plans. In fact, this is the root cause of her repeated failures in the business arena.
But now, how can she analyze and imagine this?
When suffering settles into the heart of a good, fearless man, then it becomes his courage and helps him to overcome the swamp full of thorns;
When suffering settles into the heart of a person who feels sorry for herself and cannot get rid of the shackles of darkness, then suffering becomes a reason for her to hate the world and others, and such a person will only sink deeper and deeper into the swamp of thorns until she loses herself and everything.

The morning sun shines through the milky curtains.
I woke up early, and last night I don't know why, even if I slept in his arms, I couldn't sleep peacefully.
There is always a feeling of being in a trance.
Draped over my pajamas, I walked to the window and opened the curtains, and immediately the harsh sunlight illuminated the room.
'The sun always rises so early in the summer. Listening to the chirping birds outside the window, I thought.
I really wish I could wake up every day and look out the window with peace of mind, feeling the breath of my lover that has not yet receded.
Glancing back at the still sleeping man, I silently moved a chair and rested my head against the window frame.
Speaking of windows, when I first came yesterday during the day, I had a question:
That's why the two windows in the large bedroom on the first floor are open above the double bed, and more accurately, why the double bed is placed in that position.
All I know is that he told me that everything here has not been renovated and the furniture is the same.
Of course, the bedding and all the soft in the house were freshly brought.
But that window is too strange, if you open it, the inward sash is a hindrance.
If you sit on the bed reading a book or watching TV, you will be hit on the head by the window sash if you are not careful.
Which designer designed it like this, it is estimated that this kind of mountain villa will not be able to invite a good designer to design.
Forget it, I don't like that bedroom anyway. Let's just keep those two windows closed, and if you are ventilated, won't there be windows on the balcony too?
There is also the mess in the storage room and food warehouse on the first floor, and the next time you have time to come over, you must clean it up and throw it away.
Anyway, we don't need the expired stuff and the big and small wooden blocks.
While I was thinking wildly, a man's lazy voice came from behind me:
"Swimming? Why do you wake up so early? It's okay today, hurry up and come back to sleep. ”
"Okay."
I answered softly, walked back to the bed, and returned to the embrace that I thought was wide like a crunched beast.
