Chapter 59: Meet the Parents
How sweet it is when you are together, how painful it is when you break up.
Xia Xingkong quickly ran downstairs, hiding in the corner and crying, her Mu Zhan must be in pain.
It's okay, it's good to get past it, just forget about her.
She thought that separation was a collapse, but at the end of the day, she realized that sometimes separation is also fulfillment.
There is no alternative to fulfillment.
The winter sun always struggles to peek out of the clouds, trying to use its light to drive away the gloom of the world.
The warm light seems to stay on the ground, but when you look up, you find that it has already been suppressed by the thick atmosphere and hidden most of its body, leaving only a large shadow in the end.
She escaped from the hospital and squatted alone on the bustling side of the road to blow the cold wind, tears mixed with broken hair sticking to her face.
Passers-by glanced at her and hurried away.
Time slips through the air minute by minute, and the sound of car horns "tick ......" shows the busyness of the city.
Xia Xingkong took out his mobile phone and called Zhou Yanshao, and asked calmly, "Why hasn't Mayor Mu come back yet?" ”
Zhou Yanshao replied casually over there, "Starry sky, don't worry, the scene procedure still has to go." ”
Xia Xingkong sniffed, closed his eyes and opened them again, stretched out his hand to press his beating temples and asked, his voice was very calm and gentle, "I...... When is it coming...... Looking for you? ”
Xia Xingkong felt that her teeth were chattering when she said this.
I must be ashamed of myself now.
Zhou Yanshao couldn't hide his joy, his slightly frowning brows stretched, and a smile bloomed from the corner of his mouth, "Starry sky, are you back?" ”
Xia Xingkong closed his eyes, and his heart gradually sank, extremely fast and frightened.
"Yes."
Finally, there was a 'bang', and the heart that had been trembling sank to the bottom of the lake.
"Where, I'll pick you up."
Xia Xingkong took a deep breath and slowly spit it out, his gaze falling somewhere casually, "...... Fumei Yuan. ”
The broken sunlight was still scattered on the ground, constantly changing shadows with the flow of people, lonely and lonely.
"You wait for me."
"Hmm."
Xia Xingkong hung up the phone, stood on the side of the road and stretched out his hand to call a taxi to Fumeiyuan.
After getting out of the car, she dragged her heavy head into the community step by step, and when she came to her senses, she had already arrived outside the door, and Zhou Yanshao was already waiting for her outside the door.
Zhou Yanshao put away his anger, the corners of his eyes rose, his eyes were undisguisedly hot, and he shouted in a low voice, "Starry sky." ”
Xia Xingkong was stunned when he saw the person in front of him, opened his mouth and didn't say anything, hiding the disgust in his heart, and calmly took the key to open the door.
With a "rattle", the door opened, and Xia Xingkong suddenly felt that her heart had been dissected, and the pain made her whole body numb.
She grabbed the doorframe and walked inside, staring down at the slippers in the shoe closet.
Zhou Yanshao followed in, and immediately hugged Xia Xingkong from behind after closing the door, and greedily buried his head in his neck to suck the fragrance on her body.
Xia Xingkong froze, his fingers clenched, his fingertips pierced his palms, but he still forced himself to settle down, and motionlessly touched her neck with Zhou Yanshao's lips and kissed deeply.
Her head kept buzzing, and she closed her eyes in despair.
I hope I will wake up in the next second.
Zhou Yanshao felt her rejection, did not tear it down, let go of her hand to comb the hair on the back of her neck, and asked gently: "Let's go out to eat together at night?" ”
Zhou Yanshao's movements were gentle and careful, as if she was his treasure, but in fact she was just a plaything without dignity.
said that it was an inquiry, Xia Xingkong understood that she had no right to refuse at all.
She tugged at the corners of her mouth and squeezed a smile from her face that was more painful than crying, "Okay." ”
However, in the end, disgust, let her smile, she really can't do it.
"What do you want to eat?"
Xia Xingkong moved his lips, and his voice was inaudible, "It's all right." ”
Zhou Yanshao squinted at the men's slippers in the shoe cabinet, swept the furnishings in the room, and said in a low voice, "Starry sky, did we throw away all the things we don't need?" ”
Something you don't need...... Throw away.
Xia Xingkong raised his head and looked up at the roof, held back the tears that were rolling in his eyes, and pressed out a "Okay." ”
Without Mu Zhan, everything is casual.
The good thing is that Zhou Yanshao didn't do anything out of the ordinary to her.
She still has a little hope in her heart.
Is it still possible for her and Mu Zhan?
Maybe God will suddenly take pity on her and let her go.
That's just like before, keep boiling.
Before going out to eat, Zhou Yanshao poured Xia Xingkong a glass of water and put it on the coffee table, then took off his coat and packed all the things related to Mu Zhan or suspected of being related to Mu Zhan and threw them in the trash can downstairs.
Xia Xingkong sat on the sofa and watched blankly, letting those once sweetness be thrown into the dirt.
When the tears came out, she wiped them away, and they came out and wiped them away.
Zhou Yanshao gave her a lot of patience and space today, and when she heard her sobbing, she just raised her eyebrows and took a pack of tissue paper and put it in front of her.
Strode to the balcony, closed the sliding door and smoked outside, clutching the bruised hands, and his dark eyes fell on the treetops moving in the wind.
Two days later, Xia Xingkong received a call from An Yu, and Mu Shiyan came back safe and sound.
It's just that Mu Tang is also a little serious and is still hospitalized.
Mu Zhan...... She didn't dare to listen to Mu Zhan's matter, so she immediately hung up the phone, squatted on the ground, buried her head in her knees, and burst her tears like a flood.
Mu Zhan, like a scar on her body, as soon as she opens it, she will bleed nonstop.
Zhou Yanshao took her to Zhou's house to meet his parents at night, she didn't even bother to raise her eyebrows, and nodded obediently.
Zhou Yanshao took her to the mall to choose a more formal set of clothes, and simply made a look.
She pursed her lips and let Zhou Yanshao hold her hand, her fingers were stiff and inseparable in Zhou Yanshao's hot palm, Zhou Yanshao didn't care, just wrapped her fist and held it.
In the palatial living room of the Zhou family, she saw Zhou's mother Yu Wanqin, who had yelled at her, and she was sitting elegantly on the sofa drinking tea, looking like a noble lady.
"Mom, I'm back."
Zhou Yanshao shouted cordially as soon as he entered the door.
"My son is back."
Yu Wanqin put down the teacup with a smile, and saw Xia Xingkong's face immediately cold.
"Hello."
Xia Xingkong pinched the light opening of his skirt.
Zhou's mother didn't like her, she knew that it was just right, and it was best for her son to let her go of her.
Yu Wanqin sneered dissatisfiedly, "Who is showing your face so long?" ”
She thinks it's a little funny, do you want her to make a joke?
Cut her heart alive, do you want her to laugh?
Moving his lips still didn't make any sound, saying anything was useless.
There is no excuse for the sin that you want to add.
Is this the ancestral motto of the Zhou family?
Zhou Yanshao patted Xia Xingkong on the shoulder comfortably, and hugged her to sit on the sofa.
He sat next to Yu Wanqin again, took her arm and explained, "Mom, the starry sky has always been very quiet, not to show your face. ”
Yu Wanqin snorted and patted Zhou Yanshao's hand, "I'm afraid that you will forget your mother if you have a daughter-in-law." ”
Zhou Yanshao chuckled and immediately helped Yu Wanqin press her shoulder, "How come, the woman I love the most has always been you." ”
Yu Wanqin's brows furrowed, and the corners of her mouth smiled, "You will coax me." ”
Yu Wanqin barely passed this level, and Zhou Yanshao looked around again, "What about my father?" ”
"Upstairs."
Zhou Yanshao stood up, "I'll go find him." He looked at Xia Xingkong and said softly, "Starry Sky, you are waiting for me here." ”
Xia Xingkong pursed his lips and bowed his head silently.
Zhou Yanshao went upstairs, Yu Wanqin stared at Xia Xingkong and snorted coldly.
Xia Xingkong didn't care, and looked at the desktop without any waves.
After all, Yu Wanqin couldn't help it first, and mocked Xia Xingkong, "If Shao'er didn't like you, do you think you could enter my door?" ”
I can't ask for it.
Xia Xingkong didn't speak, but just glanced at Yu Wanqin indifferently, as if it wasn't her.
Yu Wanqin was even more angry, and directly said evil words, "I don't know where Shao'er has taken a fancy to you, so uneducated." ”
If she is upbringing like you, then she is really uneducated.
Xia Xingkong clutched his clothes hard, resisting the urge to leave.
Yu Wanqin put the teacup down hard, and said angrily, she completely lost the appearance of a noblewoman.
"You're dumb, didn't you hear the elders talking to you?"
She didn't dare to say it, who knows how your Zhou family is going to play her to death?
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Zhou Yanshao hurriedly came down from upstairs.
Yu Wanqin was startled and clutched her chest, "Mom is just talking to her." ”
Zhou Yanshao pulled Xia Xingkong behind him, "Mom, don't yell at her when you speak." ”
"How can I roar ......"
"Ahem......"
Zhou's father, Zhou Yangfeng, coughed, and everyone's eyes looked at the stairs.
Zhou Yangfeng and Yu Wanqin are old and have children, and they don't like Zhou Yanshao, and Yu Wanqin can't wait to take off the stars in the sky and give them to him.
"Dad."
Zhou Yanshao touched Xia Xingkong, and she shouted in a low voice, "Hello." ”
She also felt ridiculous, as if she had sold her soul.
Shame filled her heart, and she couldn't escape the terrible worldly and dirty laws of existence.
Zhou Yangfeng nodded, "Hmm." ”
When Zhou Yanshao sent her back, he said to her, "We are engaged next month." ”
Xia Xingkong opened his mouth in astonishment, but nodded for a moment, "Okay." ”
Whatever, if there's anything else, just say it, and take her life.
Zhou Yanshao held Xia Xingkong's shoulder face to face, "Starry Sky, are you unhappy?" ”
Xia Xingkong shook his head and tried to squeeze out a very far-fetched smile, "...... No, you just have to decide. ”
Before Zhou Yanshao left, he kissed her very affectionately, and she had no way out, so she could only keep herself still in the crook of his imprisoned arm.
The hot touch on her lips was like a soldering iron, burning every cell in her body.
She tried to push away, but there were countless voices in her head telling her she couldn't.
No, no, who knows what else he's going to do.
Who knows who he will take when he is happy.
Who knows how perverted he is?
What is her pride? What is her innocence, as long as Mu Zhan can be well, she is not afraid.
Finally, the hand that was waved was clenched into a fist against Zhou Yanshao's chest.
After Zhou Yanshao left, Xia Xingkong looked at the faucet and didn't stop until his lips were worn out of the skin.
She looked at herself in the mirror and cried.
Mu Zhan, I miss you so much.
