Chapter 33: Covered with water

A poet wrote, "You look at me for a while, and you look at the clouds for a while, and I think that when you look at me, you are far away, and when you look at the clouds, you are very close." These two short poems describe the best state of Jiang Chonglang and Zhang Lanshan at this moment.

Zhang Lanshan turned around to leave, but Jiang Chonglang didn't call her, and it wasn't her if he didn't call her. Seeing the two of them like this, Cui Yaning hurriedly shouted, "Xiao Zhang, wait a minute." ”

As he spoke, Cui Yaning panted and ran to the two of them: "How long do you have to escape, the two of them talked together." Xiao Zhang, did you hear what I just said to you? As a human being, you have to look forward. Because life is always forward. After speaking, Cui Yaning glanced at Jiang Chonglang seriously and left.

After that, the two of them looked at me like this, and I watched you for more than a minute, and finally Zhang Lanshan opened her mouth first: "You're fine." ”

"It's okay, the real murderer has been caught. By the way, is Auntie still in the hospital, and is she okay? ”

"Fortunately, my body is fine, and I will be discharged from the hospital in more than half a month." Zhang Lanshan replied, although there was no wave in her tone, but it was full of forbearance.

"That's fine, wait two days. I went to see her, and my aunt needed someone to take care of her the most during this time. You see, I'm a ready-made free babysitter plus coolie. ”

Zhang Lanshan heard him say this, and after being silent for a while, she finally said: "You don't have to go to my mother's place in the future, it is estimated that my mother will never want to see you again." ”

Although Jiang Chonglang had been prepared for her words, when he heard her say it from his mouth, he still slammed into his heart: "Lan Shan, what do you mean by this, how can I not see my aunt, that is my future mother-in-law." ”

"Chong Lang, let's break up."

These words, Zhang Lanshan said very lightly. But every word, like a heavy punch, hit Jiang Chonglang's forehead, knocking him into a daze, "Break up, why?" ”

In fact, Jiang Chonglang could also guess the reason, but he still wanted Zhang Lanshan to say it himself.

"Why, don't you know. Are you going to let me uncover my mother's wounds? ”

"Lan Shan, I can understand your feelings, and I can understand your current feelings. However, you didn't listen to what Director Cui said just now, people have to look forward, no matter how good the past is, he is in the past, no matter how much I regret it, no matter how much I regret it, it is useless. Lan Shan, because of the wrong thing back then, I was immersed in guilt for a long time, and I was about to lose my life. But thanks to the guidance and help of the director, I was able to come out of the haze. Lan Shan, later I knew: We living people, only by living well, can we feel at ease in another world, which is the best comfort for them. Lan Shan, I really don't know about this matter, what do you want me to do to make up for my mistakes back then. ”

When Zhang Lanshan first started, the expression on her face was very calm, but as Jiang Chonglang spoke, her face was obviously dissatisfied, but she still said calmly: "Okay, don't say it anymore, in fact, my decision to break up with you is a very prudent decision, although you are a good man and very good to me." When I was kidnapped twice, it was you who stood up and saved me desperately, and I was very touched. However, I already know this, and I can't treat it as if everything was not born, I am not that kind of person. In the future, when you and I get along day and night, there will still be a gap in my heart. You're right, maybe time will erase everything, but has time erased your wounds? ”

Hearing her ask, Jiang Chonglang was stunned: "Lan Shan, what do you mean by asking?" ”

"What do you mean, I ask you. Have you completely let go of your previous feelings and are ready to be with me wholeheartedly? ”

"Lan Shan, what kind of question are you asking, I don't understand?" From Jiang Chonglang's tone, he could already hear his weakness. Obviously, Zhang Lanshan's question has reached the depths of his heart.

"I mean, have you completely let go of Yue Leilei, you must still be missing her, and then fall in love with me. I've seen pictures of her, and she looks like me, doesn't she? ”

Faced with Zhang Lanshan's inquiry, Jiang Chonglang was speechless for a while. That's right, when I saw Zhang Lanshan for the first time, there was indeed a bit of resemblance to Yue Leilei between her eyebrows, and her tone of voice was also somewhat similar to Yue Leilei. These characteristics are enough to attract Jiang Chonglang's special attention.

"If you don't speak, then you're acquiescing. Jiang Chonglang, you told me that you wanted to get out of the haze of the past, but you didn't go out. I remember an autopsy that required opening the skull of the corpse and removing the bullets inside. In the past, it was you who stood by and watched. But that time you hid out, I didn't know what was going on at first, but later I learned that Yue Leilei had a bullet in the skull at that time. It means that you haven't forgotten her at all, right? Even if I let it go, you haven't let it go. In the future, in our lives, we will continue to compare the two of us, and I will always live in her shadow. Jiang Chonglang, what I said is not wrong at all. ”

Hearing her series of questions, Jiang Chonglang couldn't answer a word. What Zhang Lanshan said is indeed partly true. Jiang Chonglang saw Zhang Lanshan for the first time, and the more he felt that she was a little similar to Yue Leilei. That's why I deliberately didn't have anything to say to talk to her at the beginning. However, later, Zhang Lanshan's unique personality, such as the perceptual factor hidden under the rational appearance, really attracted Jiang Chonglang's attention. Jiang Chonglang's heart, which had been frozen for a long time, gradually melted.

"Why don't you speak, are you acquiescing?" Looking at Jiang Chonglang's silent face, Zhang Lanshan was even more sure of his speculation.

"Lan Shan, I" Jiang Chonglang wanted to say no, but he couldn't deceive his heart. "Can you not go, even if we can't be together in the future, can we still be good friends? We've been working together for over a year and have solved so many cases. In the whole game, there is no more tacit partner than us. You stay, even if it's for Yangcheng's safety and for our common cause. Would you like to stay? ”

Jiang Chonglang's tone was full of pleading, and his eyes were no longer as confident as before. Zhang Lanshan couldn't say anything for a while when she saw him like this.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Chonglang mustered up his courage and went up and grabbed her hand: "Lan Shan, give me another chance." I'll try my best to make up for the previous things. ”

Zhang Lanshan sighed and took his hand away: "Forget it, I know your mood at the moment." But I really can't treat that thing as if nothing happened. I really don't know how to face you. So let's break up, maybe after this time, let me calm down. We can continue to be friends. Don't worry, Jiang Chonglang, I will always remember you. But, forget it, you take care. After speaking, Zhang Lanshan left without looking back. It's just that what Jiang Chonglang didn't see was that Zhang Lanshan had tears in his eyes and hadn't shed tears yet.

Outside the window, it rained again, this is the characteristic of the late autumn of Yangcheng, it is always rainy, the autumn rain is dripping, and the sad song gradually sounds:

Heavy rain is coming, and the ground is damp. Memories are eroded.

Years later, every story has always had a similar ending.

Don't say who you love, don't say but. Tears please stop in moderation,

The cycle of dispersion of gains and losses will always come and go.
