I'm a little hurt, a little sad, and a little ...... Overwhelmed.

"I, I didn't."

"It's good if you don't, in fact, I didn't mean to embarrass you, and I haven't bullied you usually, are you right?"

"Hmm." I buried my head and felt very uncomfortable.

"Sister, then let's go home."

Mr. Shen was very kind to me, shh

But the more he treated me, the more uneasy I felt, and Mr. Chu said that all the debts owed had to be repaid.

I owe Mr. Shen so much, and I guess I won't be able to pay it off in a few lifetimes.

"Why do you sigh?" Mr. Chu came behind me at some point and asked.

I put down the book in my hand and was silent for a while before I said, "I don't know how to do the question, I think I'm stupid." ”

"You've only been enrolled for a few days, it's normal that you can't do it, you're not afraid of people who have a heart, and you'll always catch up if you work hard." Mr. Chu's comfort gave me infinite motivation.

"Mr. Chu, I think you're very powerful, it seems that nothing can bother you."

He smiled, "That's because ...... I try to show you the good side, no one is perfect, behind the sun, there is darkness. ”

I stared at him, in a trance, as if the person standing in front of me was particularly unreal and unreal.

"Mr. Chu, sometimes I suspect that you are just a shadow of my imagination alone, but in fact, you do not exist."

He laughed out loud and reached out to stroke my hair: "Perhaps, in the endless loneliness and loneliness, I also suspected that I was having a long dream, in which I was a dead person, and when I woke up from the dream, I returned to the real world. ”

Thinking about it, I also laughed along: "Does Mr. Chu also have a bad side?" ”

"Of course, but I'm not going to let you see it. Lingsheng, you just need to see my good side. ”

"Why?" I hung my head a little disappointed: "You can see my bad side, it's not fair." ”

"That's to make you fall in love with me!"

At that moment, the air was so hot that it seemed that it was difficult to breathe, in fact, at that time, I didn't know what love was, it was like a vague shadow, in my mind, obviously I couldn't grasp it, I couldn't see it, but it could really touch my heart.

Mr. Chu is a very knowledgeable and talented person, and I later learned that he is very good at Chinese painting.

His posture with a pen is very elegant and good-looking, his wrist is stable and powerful, and he outlines the green mountains and green waters with one stroke, which is so beautiful that people are left with amazement.

He is also a very quiet person, accompanying me in the room, you can hold a book, sit for an afternoon, and not say a word.

He likes to drink tea, not really, and the ghost only sucks in the heat and taste.

If he talked to me, he could talk about everything, he knew everything, but he never mentioned his past.

So, he didn't say anything, and I didn't ask again.

Until one day, I saw an extra picture of a cold plum in the snow on my desk.

The plum blossoms are so beautifully painted, under the vast cloudless sky, in the boundless snow, burning like clusters of bright red flames, and the calm heart lake is like throwing a stone, stirring up ripples in circles.

In the midst of the Merlin, there stood a young girl, dressed in a goose-yellow cloak, with long satin-like hair scattered behind her head, and her hair trimmed at the ends.

She looked up at the snowy scene of the Merlin, and could only see the delicate side profile, but although it was only on the side, it was still recognizable at a glance, like a very beautiful woman.

From the first time he saw his sister-in-law, his expression was strange, was it because he liked him?

Suddenly, the painting on the table floated, and when he raised his eyes to look, it had fallen into Chu Nantang's hands.

After all, I couldn't help but ask him, "Mr. Chu...... Is it the painting of Changzhi? ”

He laughed, looked at the painting seriously, and asked me, "Do you think it looks like a concubine?" ”

It's not like it, but it's clearly painted by Changzhi!

"Isn't it?" Like a paranoid, I looked down and muttered.

He sighed lightly: "A skin is its own, no matter how similar it is, but it can't draw through the bones." She's not a concubine, she's just mine...... An old man. ”

I don't know what kind of old man it is, but when he mentions it, his eyes are so sad and bitter.

After that, the relationship with Chu Nantang was no longer as close as before, and he rarely appeared in front of me.

My heart felt like a big stone was pressing, I always felt depressed, breathless, uncomfortable but I didn't know what to do.

Perhaps, only time will slowly heal those invisible wounds.

On the weekend, Mr. Shen, who had not been seen for a long time, came back, he was always very busy, and he heard from Wei Bo that Mr. Shen had a big business and often had to go to other provinces.

When he came back, he was not idle, and he pruned the branches and leaves in the rose garden early in the morning, and I had nothing to do, so I walked over to see if I needed help.

Seeing me coming, Mr. Shen put down the work in his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Girl, the sun is very strong, don't stand in the yard for too long."

I looked at the roses that were about to bud, and I didn't know what kind of spectacle it would be when the flowering season came.

"Does Mr. Shen like roses very much?" I asked him, confused.

Mr. Shen's eyes were full of smiles, pointed to the window of my room, and said, "When you look out the window in the flower season, you can see a large number of roses in full bloom, which is beautiful!" ”

I looked at him stunned for a few seconds: "Hmm! That one...... How long has Mr. Shen been planting? ”

He breathed a sigh of relief: "It's been fourteen years, and it was planted in about the year you were born. ”

I exclaimed, "Fourteen years?!" ”

"Hahaha...... yes, as long as you're your age. Lingsheng, ah......"

"Huh?"

He just looked at me seriously for a long time before smiling and saying, "It's nothing, I suddenly miss someone." ”

"Is it a very important person?" In the face of such Mr. Shen, I always feel uneasy in my heart.

"It's important, but she's dead."
