Beijing, China –

At lunchtime, José was called out of his room by his mother. In the dining room, his father was already sitting at the head of the dining table.

Jose sat down sullenly and picked up the bamboo chopsticks.

Today's lunch is very rich, stewed meat, braised shrimp, grilled fish, stir-fried dishes are all available, and the color matching is also very exquisite.

As soon as Jose sat down, his mother had already filled a bowl of rice from the rice cooker and put it in his hand, and then busily sandwiched meat and fish for him.

"Okay Mom, you leave me alone......"

Jose's bowl was already covered with a thick layer of dishes. He saw another chopsticks coming towards him, and hurriedly complained impatiently, and flashed the bowl to the side.

"Eat more ......, kid"

The mother withdrew her chopsticks in distress, but did not force the food to him.

José actually has no appetite.

From the day he returned home, he locked himself in his room and never went anywhere. If you don't have a lot of activity, how can you have an appetite to eat?

Besides, his body was clogged with a number of preoccupations, and it was impossible for him to have more room for anything else.

Jose's gaze suddenly fixed on the center of the table.

There was a pot of ginseng and chicken soup there, which Jose's mother had specially boiled all night to replenish her son's body. The warm heat and fragrance emanated from the celadon white sand cup, and at the same time evoked Jose's memories.

He frowned and put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Mom and Dad, I won't eat if I'm not hungry, you use it slowly. ”

"Konishi ......"

Jose's mother watched in a panic as Jose Shen finished speaking to them and left the dining room, and soon there was a "bang" sound from the other end of the room.

The virtuous middle-aged woman looked at the pot of chicken soup on the table with a melancholy expression, and blamed herself incomparably:

"It's all my fault, I have to make some soup. Originally, this kid was in a better mood......"

"Hey!"

Jose's father sighed, also put down his chopsticks, and complained with a calm face:

"I said a long time ago that he and that foreign girl can't grow up! It's okay to whimsically engage in a transnational relationship, it's just nonsense! This is good, not only is it wasted, but his studies are also delayed!"

The wife's somewhat extreme remarks immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Jose's mother, and she turned her head and retorted:

"Oh, you don't have to say a word! You know that in your studies, your son's safety is more important than anything else. ”

......

José made his way back to his room, locked the door, and lay on his back on the bed, feeling exhausted.

With his head resting between his overlapping palms, his eyes were open, and he didn't want to think about anything in his head, he didn't want to remember anything.

On that day, after Carette proposed to him to formally break up, he was tired and heartbroken, and he had to sit in the airport waiting room with his exhausted body all day.

As Carette walked through the streets of Athens like a ghost, José was sitting in the waiting room weeping. In the end, he changed his single ticket and took off at midnight to transfer from Paris, France to the Chinese capital.

As soon as the depressed Jose entered the house, his parents were startled.

Now that it is close to the beginning of the school season in Europe, they don't understand why their son, who is facing graduation and is in love, suddenly returned to his home country without a sound.

After his mother's constant questioning, Jose told him about his breakup with his girlfriend.

Jose's father was conservative and was not optimistic about his son's relationship with the Greek one called The. But now that I saw Jose's sad look, I didn't want to say anything, so I just let him go.

Children are all meat that falls from the mother's body. The person whose heart aches the most is the mother in the first place when a child is harmed. No matter what age the child grows up, only the mother is still alive, and any emotions of her child will affect her mood.

Jose's mother, who was gentle and gentle, wept when she heard her son tell about his misfortune. She insisted that José go home for a while and wait until he was in a better mood before making other plans.

At present, Jose's mother thinks that her top priority is to comfort her son, and to help him take care of his life, constantly changing three meals a day, and making all kinds of nutritious and delicious meals for her son.

But no matter how he changed, Jose not only did not get fat, but became thinner and thinner, and his spirit became more and more depressed.

José lay in bed for an hour.

It may be because he has lost weight twice recently, and at this time he always feels that his back close to the soft bed seems to be hurt by the mattress.

So he got up again, grabbing his phone and fiddling with it.

After leaving Greece, he received several phone calls from his mentor. From the beginning of persuading him to go back and continue to complete the rest of the course, he was later angered by his stubbornness, and after scolding him on the phone, he never called to harass him again.

There were dozens of unread emails in the e-mail, greetings from acquaintances, and Jose had only read the headlines cursorely.

At this time, Jose felt that he had really become free of any concerns, like transparent air, detached from all things in the world, and closely integrated with the world of all things.

Jose flicked the screen of his phone and inadvertently clicked on the photo album.

In addition to the album of exotic landscapes, there is also a collection of images of girls.

Suddenly, a flash of brilliance flashed in his dry eyes. After a moment's hesitation, he tapped his finger at it.

Carefully browsing each image, a sad smile appeared on Jose's face.

Looking at them, he seemed to see a smart and real figure again, smiling, every move was graceful and delicate, like clear water piercing a stone, and every drop of crystal water fell down to make a clear and vibrating syllable on Jose's heart.

"Karete ......"

José whispered to the blonde girl in one of the images, his voice bleak.

After half a month of hard work after returning home, José's attempt to completely forget about Carreta ended in his failure.

Every time, when he wants to try to forget, it is also the time when he is most eager to remember.

At this time, José pressed the screen of his mobile phone reflecting her beautiful smiling face to his chest and prayed softly:

"I miss you... Kareta, I miss you so much—"

Sad for a while, he got out of bed, sat down at his desk and turned on his desktop computer.

Connected to a proxy server, Jose boarded the Internet.

After not paying attention to current events for many days, José remembered Carette and was determined to read the latest news in Greece, so he went to a local Greek website that he often reads.

As soon as he opened the homepage, he suddenly saw such a news in the most conspicuous position:

"Mr. Sewell Black, a young wealthyman, a master of poison-grade oil painting, an antiquities collector and a financial investor, and the Lachio family will hold an engagement ceremony in Santorini Harbour on the 10th of next month!"

There was a "boom" in his head, and a Venus flashed in front of Jose's eyes. He used one hand to prop desperately on the table so that he didn't slip off the chair.

José has not forgotten the name of his senior, and knows everything about the Lachio family socialite mentioned in the headline......

Jose felt like he was on fire. He frantically grabbed his phone and poked the screen on, and opened the electronic photo album again.

Why, Carret......

Looking at the still image of her smiling face, a wave of sadness hit José's heart. In her eyes, the warm droplets of water flowed out and fell on the screen of her phone, and also on the bright smile of Carette inside.

The reason why you decided to leave me was because of him? Between me and my senior, you finally chose to abandon me...... Is this what you're struggling with?

José calmed down for a moment, wiped his face, and wiped the wet phone screen dry.

He re-read the engagement notice on the page.

The text is not long, and the time, place, process, and recreational activities of the ceremony are briefly stated throughout.

Hmph, a young man, he is called a rich man instead of a talented man.

Jose let out a bitter sour smile after reading it.

I feel that the Greek news and literary circles have also begun to play with words, and they do not forget to take the opportunity to flatter and praise their stinky feet when writing a news article for the rich.

Jose flipped through the address book from his phone system and pulled up the phone number marked "Baby Cat".

"Baby Cat" is José's affectionate name for Carette.

After struggling with his heart for a while, he finally dialed Karete's mobile number......

Jesus Bridal Shop, Athens, Greece –

In the women's locker room, the clerk puts on a white dress chosen by Carette for her.

Because the upcoming ceremony was not a wedding, Carreta did not directly choose a white wedding dress in the style of a long dress. Instead, choose a mid-length bud skirt with short white gauze sleeves.

The dress is embroidered with white threads by hand and decorated with sparkling Swarovski crystals on the chest, waist and upper part of the skirt.

Carreta tried on the dress, and then went to the dressing room next door to ask the makeup artist to arrange her hair.

At this moment, the mobile phone she was carrying with her rang.

"Sorry......"

Kareta gestured to the makeup artist in embarrassment, then picked up her phone beside her.

Her expression froze suddenly, and Carette was so startled that she almost screamed.

She closed her gaping eyes again and quickly opened them to look at the screen, convinced that her eyes were not misaligned.

The name shown on the phone number on the screen is actually Jose, who has not been contacted for a long time!

Jose –

Carette silently pronounced the name she had forgotten for a long time, and the hand holding the phone began to tremble.

Jose, you actually thought of calling me. How is he doing after all these days? Now, should I connect......

In Carette's panic, Jose's call was cut off.

Looking at the missed call symbol in the corner of the screen, Kareta let out a sigh of relief.

She knew that the call had come at an inopportune time. The result of receiving or not receiving is the same, and it can no longer have the slightest change in the future.

After going through so much, Carette seems to have learned to avoid problems sensibly. Avoidance, but also for a better solution.

Lately, Carette and Demos have been busy.

As a result of Demos's repeated pleas, Carette finally agreed to be betrothed to him as a human first.

Demos was overjoyed, and Carette's answer undoubtedly gave him a reassurance, making him feel as comfortable as swallowing a reassuring pill.

In the next half month, he began to conduct the engagement ceremony with Noah's assistance.

Demos was determined to do it.

He remembered the promise he had made to her on the Carmenian cruise ship.

He had told her at that time that if one day she became his woman, he would have a great celebration with no less poisation than what she had seen in the Carmenian family.

Now that Kareta has indeed become his woman, he certainly wants to make good on his promise.

Since it was an engagement, he didn't want to treat Carreta badly!
