Chapter 5 An Old Photograph
At night, Ye Wei'an opened the window and walked to the balcony, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance. Tonight is overcast, clouds cover the moon, mist floats in the air, and only haze comes into view. Although it is July at the end of summer, the autumn tiger is still violent, and the hot and humid air hits the face, which makes people feel uncomfortable. Ye Wei'an took out his mobile phone and dialed Cheng Xu's number, but heard a string of cold mechanical female voices, "I'm sorry, the phone you dialed is on the phone, please dial it later." Ye Wei'an had no choice but to hold his mobile phone and wait silently.
At this time, the person who was talking to Cheng Xu was none other than Cheng Gang. "Xiao Xu, uncle found it for you! You're really lucky, she lived in the jurisdiction under my jurisdiction back then, and I still stamped her seal when her household registration book was changed! It's just that at that time, she was not called Ye Wei'an, but Chu Xinran. Ten years ago, after her parents notarized a divorce at the Civil Affairs Bureau, her mother applied for a change of household registration and changed her name to Ye Wei'an. After that, the mother and daughter moved quickly, and you should know her as well! Cheng Gang flipped through the information in his hand and said.
"Is that all?" Cheng Xu had a headache, and spent so much effort to investigate, and all he found was something he already knew, "Did she have any people who were particularly close to her at that time?" “
"How can the police find out this!" Cheng Gang was a little helpless, "If the police don't even care about what friends everyone makes, then they don't have to do anything!" But when you talk about people who are close to you, I think of one thing. This Chu Xinran was involved in a fight, it seemed that someone intimidated her to collect protection money from her, and then a person she called her brother couldn't stand it and beat those people! The people who fought were all students in C. The person who helped Chu Xinran fight seems to be called ...... Jing Wenyan! ”
"Jing Wenyan? What kind of man is he of Woan? Cheng Xu hurriedly asked, if nothing else, this Jing Wenyan should be the person who appeared in Wei'an's dream! Something special must have happened back then!
"This ...... Xiao Xu, this has nothing to do with you chasing girls, my uncle is a policeman anyway, and if you check it down, you can ......" Cheng Gang was a little embarrassed.
Cheng Xu also understands Cheng Gang's situation, and he will not be difficult! "I know, Uncle Cousin, thank you so much for helping me a lot! Next time, let my mom make you something to eat! ”
As soon as Cheng Gang's phone was hung up here, Ye Wei'an's phone called. Cheng Xu was a little surprised, if there was no matter, Wei'an would not give him a long-distance call! "Hey, Wei'an, what's wrong?"
"I think I've seen him!" Ye Wei'an came up and said such a clueless sentence, which made people scratch their heads.
"What? Wei'an, who have you seen? Don't rush, speak slowly! Cheng Xu heard the tremor in Ye Wei'an's voice through the microphone, and couldn't help but be a little worried!
"The man in my dreams!" Ye Wei'an took a deep breath and said slowly: "The new professional teacher of our class that I saw during class today really looks like him!" ”
"Didn't you say you remembered a vague figure? Just with a vague figure, how can you ......" Cheng Xu's words were interrupted by Ye Wei'an before he finished speaking.
"Nope! Not only was he a vague figure, but his voice also made me feel so familiar, and my mother's reaction was so strange when she knew his name. Most importantly, my heart started beating faster the moment I saw him! All these signs point to him being the person in my dreams, isn't it? The more Ye Wei'an spoke, the more excited he became.
"You said Aunt Ye reacted strangely when she heard his name? What's his name? Cheng Xu remembered what Cheng Gang had just said, and asked tentatively.
"His name is Jing Wenyan." Hearing Ye Wei'an's words, Cheng Xu held his mobile phone and froze there, his face full of consternation! He couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in this world! Is this providential? "Cheng Xu? Cheng Xu, you speak! Can't you hear me? Hearing Ye Wei'an's call, Cheng Xu realized that the phone had not been disconnected.
"Hmm... The signal was a bit bad just now! Wei'an, don't be in a hurry. What such a coincidence! I know you're looking for that person, we'll check slowly, and there will be results! Cheng Xu was very glad that they were talking on the phone now, not face-to-face, so Ye Wei'an couldn't find out what was wrong with him!
"Hmm...... That's all it can be! Cheng Xu, thank you. Ye Wei'an said with a slight smile.
"What do we have to do with it, you are still polite to me! It's not early, you go to bed early! Don't think too much, only you remember, no matter what happens, there is me! ”
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Xu sighed heavily, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, lit a cigarette, and began to swallow the clouds. Jing Wenyan! What was the relationship between Jing Wenyan and Wei'an back then, which made Wei'an have such a deep obsession with him. What did he do to hurt Wei'an to make Aunt Ye so secretive about his affairs? He had to find out all of this!
Ye Wei'an put down the phone and sighed. Seeing that it looked like it was about to rain, she went back to the house, closed the window, and lay in bed tossing and turning!
There was a bright light in the sky, and after the thunder sounded, the rain poured down like a pouring pot. Jing Wenyan sat by the window, watching the raindrops fall on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and then gathered into streams of water flowing down the glass. He picked up the red wine on the table and took a sip, his thin lips covered with a touch of red, like devouring blood.
The room reverberated with an old song, which was Zhang Xinzhe's "From the Beginning to the Present". At the beginning, the female voice reads, "Have you really forgotten your first love?" If one day, you meet someone who looks exactly like her, is she really her? Is it possible? Is this the forgiveness of fate or another ill-intentioned joke? ”
In the roster on the table, the three words Ye Wei'an, which was sandwiched between many names, were circled by Jing Wenyan, and he rubbed a yellowed old photo in his hand. The photograph looks old, and there is a glaring crack in it. That's the mark that his aunt angrily tore off when she saw the photo after he went to his aunt's house!
His aunt never let him keep anything related to her, but he was never willing to throw away the only photo they had ever taken. After his aunt tore it off, he carefully taped it and kept it secretly. In the photo, the boy and the little girl are smiling brightly.
If he hadn't said something like that on the spur of the moment, there might have been some leeway between them! But at that time, he was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, young and frivolous, and inevitably impulsive! He regretted it afterwards, but it was to no avail! Ten years have passed, and her tearful eyes and paper-pale face after falling into the water have always lingered in his mind!
Now, it's been ten years, where are you? How are you doing? Are you still blaming Brother Wen Yan? That girl named Ye Wei'an is really too similar to her! Like at that moment, he almost thought he saw her!
She is the only person in his life for so many years who really cares about him except for his relatives, but there are those old things between them, which makes him at a loss! His mother's resentful gaze before her death pierced his heart like a sharp blade, making him unable to like the person he liked with peace of mind!
But where is it so easy for people to forget in their hearts? During the years of going to his aunt's house, his aunt has always treated him very well, and the only time he spoke out was because he saw this photo. Everyone thinks that they are just a bad relationship after all, but only he can't forget it! Facing Ye Wei'an, who was almost exactly the same as her, Jing Wenyan felt for the first time that maybe this was the will of heaven!
Jing Wenyan picked up his mobile phone and opened Ye Wei'an's circle of friends. He rarely added the student's WeChat, but he still couldn't resist adding Ye Wei'an. Ye Wei'an's circle of friends has a lot of dynamics, there are several days a day, there are reposted jokes, and there are also moods written by themselves. Jing Wenyan found that she seemed to have a good writing style, and there was a literary atmosphere between the lines, she was probably the so-called literary and artistic youth in the world, and she was always a little sad in her heart.
Ye Wei'an is still different from Xinran, Xinran will not be as compassionate and self-pitying as her. But in her, there is a shadow! This shadow alone is enough to make Jing Wenyan feel uneasy!
At this time, Jing Wenyan couldn't have imagined that the person he was facing was the person he had been thinking about for ten years!
