Chapter 28 Cancellation of Air Tickets
At ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Erdong received a text message, which was sent by Shen Pei, with only four short words: "Cancel the ticket." ”
These words pierced his heart like a sharp sword, and the whole person was like petrification, stunned in place, and after a while, Chen Erdong looked at the messy suitcase on the floor, smiled bitterly, picked up the clothes inside and fell heavily to the ground.
He sat on the edge of the bed, not knowing what to do, he never thought that he would break up with Shen Pei, but Shen Pei's text message had already announced the result.
He began to regret why he said such things in the car, why he had to be lukewarm to Shen Pei during this time, at this moment, he really realized what Shen Pei meant to him, he picked up the phone, ready to call Shen Pei, frantically apologized and admitted his mistake and asked for forgiveness, but at the moment he clicked on the phone, another voice suddenly came to mind in his mind.
If he really wants to get married next year as Shen Pei wishes, and the house that lives in her family has even turned into a young owner of the printing house, then he has really become a veritable inverted door, can he accept it?
He put down his phone, lost the ability to think, and continued to sit in a daze, like this until late at night. At two o'clock in the morning, he involuntarily walked to the computer, turned on the computer and boarded QQ, clicked on the chat history with Shen Pei, started from the first one, and opened the folder with Shen Pei's photos, looking at the photos while reading the dialogue, every time he saw a "public" word or a sweet group photo, the corresponding picture appeared in his mind, his eyes began to flicker, unable to control himself, and then his nose was sore, he cried, but there was no sound, it was not a sob, just let the tears burst, and the tears quickly blurred his vision, He had to keep wiping it to see the familiar face on the screen.
Chen Erdong has a nickname called "Don't Cry Ghost", which was given to him by his classmates, because no matter how touching the incident or movie he faced, he was the one with the coldest reaction, and the school organized to watch "Beautiful Life" that year, from teachers to students, all of them were moved to wipe away tears, only Chen Erdong watched the whole scene with an expressionless face.
Many people don't understand him very well, usually cheerful and humorous, but when they are indifferent, they can't read a trace of human feelings, because they don't know that Chen Erdong's forbearance factor grew in his body after he was 3 years old, it's not that he has no emotion, it's just a control based on the inertia of the factor, unless it can't be controlled, such as today.
He sat in front of the computer until midnight, finished the recordings, finished the photos, and ran out of tears.
He sent a text message to Lu Yun, "Sister, I broke up with Shen Pei, I won't be able to come tomorrow, you and your brother-in-law have fun, I'm sorry." ”
In the morning, Lu Yun saw the text message and immediately dialed Chen Erdong, but it prompted to turn off the phone, Shen Pei was too, Lu Yun sighed, although she didn't know what happened, but it must be an irreversible process, she could only sort out her mood and continue the trip with her husband, after all, the hotel ticket was bought with real money, and the discounted ticket booked in advance could not be refunded.
On the same roof, Dong Yuhua and Chen Mowen were still in the dark at this time, seeing that Chen Erdong hadn't gotten up after ten o'clock in the morning, Dong Yuhua was afraid that he would delay the plane, so he ran to knock on the door and call him, but there was no movement in the house.
Dong Yuhua pushed the door and entered, and saw Chen Erdong lying on the bed, without even changing his clothes, and there were clothes and empty suitcases scattered on the ground, her intuition told her that something major had happened, and she hurriedly pushed Chen Erdong with her hand: "Xiaodong, Xiaodong, wake up." ”
Chen Erdong opened his eyes in a daze: "Mom, what's wrong?" ”
"Aren't you going to Hong Kong today? How can I not get up yet. Dong Yuhua was in a hurry.
Chen Erdong propped himself up with his hands, sat up slowly, rubbed his eyes, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "No, I broke up with Shen Pei." ”
"What? Broke up? Mowen, Mowen, come here. Dong Yuhua shouted outside the room, Chen Mowen came looking for a voice, as soon as he stepped into the door, he saw that the floor was full of fragments, he was not as big as Dong Yuhua's reaction, he only said: "Go wash your face and come out and say." ”
A family of three sat in the living room, Chen Erdong briefly talked about the breakup, Dong Yuhua was very sad, she really liked Shen Pei, but she didn't know how to interfere in the affairs of her children, so she could only sigh again and again.
After saying that, Chen Erdong didn't say a word, and lit a cigarette of Chen Mowen, Chen Mowen was a little surprised, his son never smoked in front of him, although he knew that Chen Erdong smoked, because he was caught smoking secretly when he was in middle school, the father definitely did not allow the son of a student to smoke, so even after work, Chen Erdong still deliberately avoided smoking in front of him.
"Have you thought about it?" Chen Mowen asked, and Chen Erdong shook his head.
"What do you mean by shaking your head? If you want to go anywhere, you will go to someone to reconcile, and if you don't want to go anywhere, don't drag mud and water. "Chen Mowen is very direct.
"Hey, Mowen, you persuade him, what's wrong with Shen Pei? People want to get married, you get married next year, we don't object, you don't want to live in the house her family bought, I'll buy it for you with your father, what are you doing? "Dong Yuhua is really reluctant to Shen Pei.
"Mom, do you think I need to get married because of you?" Hearing Dong Yuhua say that buying a house for him touched his nerves again.
"I'm your mother, where do you come from? Don't you want to get married just because Shen Pei's mother wants to buy you a house? Then I'll buy it for you, Shen Pei lives in our house, it's not a reverse door. ”
"Mom, I'm only 23 years old, you can see my company, I can do it well, now my career is more important to me, why do I have to get married so early, I just want to rely on myself no matter how I get married and buy a house in the future. Moreover, I don't want Shen Pei's family to give me this and that, I'm a man. ”
"Hey, why are you so axial, it's exactly like your dad." Dong Yuhua suddenly felt powerless.
"Okay, he is in charge of his own affairs, Chen Erdong, I will tell you one thing, if you want to divide and make peace, I will not interfere, but you must be clear, if you divide it, don't provoke others again."
On Monday, when Chen Erdong appeared at the company, everyone was full of questions, his face was gloomy, he didn't greet the employees as usual, and went straight back to his office. Lin Daqi's first reaction was that something happened to him and Shen Pei, otherwise he didn't get on the plane on Saturday, and there was no movement on Sunday, he followed Chen Erdong's footsteps and pushed open the door of his office, and Fu Huayong understood that he would enter with him.
"What's wrong?" Lin Daqi got straight to the point.
"Broke up." Chen Erdong stared at the computer he had just turned on, calmly like an outsider.
"True or false?"
"What do you say? I don't want a plane ticket or a hotel, huh. "I didn't even look at the two people in front of me when I spoke.
Lin Daqi knew him very well, and when he thought of what Chen Erdong said to him some time ago, he probably guessed a rough idea.
Seeing that he had this attitude, the more light he behaved, the more uncomfortable he became, so he didn't plan to get to the bottom of it, and when he wanted to say it, he would naturally say it.
Lin Daqi's heart is very uncomfortable, just like chasing the TV series halfway, the hero and heroine suddenly broke up so heartbroken, his determination of the relationship between Chen Erdong and Shen Pei is the same as Shen Pei, he has never read him, at this time Fu Huayong wanted to open his mouth to comfort a few words, but was stopped by Lin Daqi, pulled him out of the office, Chen Erdong's face did not change, and continued to look at the computer.
What Chen Erdong decided, it is difficult to turn back, Lin Daqi knows this very well, but he is unwilling to let a couple who were once so loving fly apart, if it is an outsider, it is none of his business, but Chen Erdong is his best brother, and Shen Pei is also a classmate who has been with him for more than ten years, the three of them are too familiar, thinking about the lack of a corner in the future, it is difficult for him to accept.
He wanted to call Shen Pei to see if there was room for maneuvering, but Shen Pei's phone actually came one step ahead of him:
"Daqi, please come to my house at night, Chen Erdong has something here for me, you can help me return it to him, thank you."
Hearing Shen Pei's words, Lin Daqi's heart was half cold, because Shen Pei was so polite and polite, which was impossible before, and this attitude was more like drawing a line. Lin Daqi originally wanted to say something to Shen Pei, but in the face of such an opening statement, he gave up.
At night, Lin Daqi knocked on Shen Pei's door, and what appeared in front of him was a woman with a pale face and swollen eyes, his heart was tight, and he was sad, he had never seen such a Shen Pei, he could completely imagine how Shen Pei spent the past two days.
"This bag." Shen Pei picked up a handbag placed in the hallway.
"Are you alright? You ......" Lin Daqi didn't know what kind of language to use to deal with the situation in front of him.
"Big... Excuse me... You go back... Thank you. In just ten words, Shen Pei said extremely difficult, and every time he pronounced a word, there would be a pause in the middle.
She was not used to talking to Lin Daqi like this, and the deliberately created life would only make the atmosphere even sadder. Her voice trembled, her eyes sparkled, her brows trembled unconsciously, and she could see that she was trying very hard to control, Lin Daqi's arrival was a full stop, and the last stroke was between her and Chen Erdong.
Lin Daqi reached out to take the handbag, but Shen Pei didn't let go immediately, as soon as he let go, he said goodbye to everything, Lin Daqi looked at Shen Pei's eyes, he had never interpreted so many meanings in a pair of eyes, reluctant, unwilling, and incomprehensible.
With a little force, he pulled the bag over and walked towards the elevator, not daring to look at it again. Shen Pei did not close the door, but watched the silhouette of Lin Daqi.
Xiaobao suddenly ran to the door, meowed a few times, the elevator arrived, Lin Daqi strode in, and turned his head at the last moment before his sight disappeared, a tearful woman and a cute little white cat were looking at him, tears almost fell.
Lin Daqi said that this was the saddest look he had ever seen in his life.
Shen Pei didn't leave anything for Chen Erdong, the handbag contained the home clothes, charging cables and several design samples he bought, the only thought left between her and Chen Erdong was Xiaobao, Xiaobao stayed in the closest place to her except for dinner these days, and they all said that cats are lonely animals, but Xiaobao is not.
When Liu Min came back from a business trip and learned that her daughter had broken up, she was furious, and resolutely terminated the printing relationship with Daer Media, and then cut off all the customers she recommended to Chen Erdong.
Except for the two companies that have not yet fulfilled their contracts, other customers have terminated their cooperation with Big Ear Media. Shen Pei stopped it, she thought that one yard is one yard, it is not easy for Big Ear Media to get to this day, and there is also a share of Lin Daqi, he should not be implicated, but Liu Min will never be soft, whoever dares to hurt Shen Pei will not think about Ansheng.
As a result, the company lost almost one-third of its business, which was the result of Chen Erdong's expectations, but it was not so painful, and the company could continue with the support of "Gonghu No. 1".
Chen Erdong does not hold a grudge against Liu Min, this is a normal reaction that a mother should have, in fact, he still feels guilty about Liu Min, even if he broke up, he always owes this ex-mother-in-law a meal.
