Chapter 17: Cousin
But it's always good for these men to be more respectful of women. She sighed and smiled, "Each of us has a limited power, so at least we can guarantee more respect for the women who appear in our lives and see them as people like us." ”
Hearing this, Director Su immediately nodded, and it was rare that he did not have the sneering posture before: "You are right!" ”
A few people chatted for a while, and when they saw that it was getting late, they went home.
Walking on the road, the cold wind blew on my cheeks, and I felt an indescribable loneliness.
As she walked, she came to the most prosperous street market, where there were still many people walking around.
At this moment, she suddenly heard someone behind her shouting for everyone to give way, there should be some big official coming over.
She retreated to the side of the road like the others, and a carriage passed in front of her.
This carriage is resplendent and splendid, and the people sitting in it should also be characters with heads and faces. She was a little curious, and couldn't help but ask the person next to her, "Who is this?" ”
The man next to her looked incredulous: "Many of us have come here today just to see him!" This is the first beautiful man in Dachu, Beiding Gong, the youngest general to protect the country today! ”
An Muchen? Beiding Gong? The person sitting in the carriage now turned out to be him?
I was happy and sad in my heart, and I didn't know what I thought. The past of his youth seems to be vivid, but now that he thinks about it, he only has empty sadness.
Hate? Maybe. After all, when the accident happened back then, the Beiding Mansion didn't care about it, and let his family decline like this.
But it is natural that people don't care, but he is also secretly involved, which is really beyond his imagination.
He is a friend, a confidant, and a cousin who grew up together, but in the end, after all, he cut his robe and broken sleeves, and he is like a stranger.
Chengyun turned around and left quietly, the wind blew on his body, and he remembered the scene of the two children putting paper kites together that year.
Brother Chen's call after call seemed to be still ringing in his ears, but in the blink of an eye, things were already wrong.
I don't know what a good day it is today, there are still people putting river lanterns at the water's edge, and pairs of young men and women walking together, looking at it is yearning.
Shuttling through the crowd, Chengyun also bought a lamp, squatted quietly by the water, looking at the galaxy in the water in a daze.
At this moment, she felt someone stop beside her, and a familiar voice sounded: "Why is Brother Ji here alone?" ”
She turned around, but saw Luo Feng sitting on the stone steps with a sad face, his long legs dangling, and his slender hands holding a lantern.
When Chengyun saw that his body was shivering, he thought that he was cold, so he took off his robe and covered his body.
Now, although it is a summer night, it is still a little cold at the water's edge at night, and this little young master can't be frozen no matter what.
Luo Feng glanced at her with some surprise, and began to want to return the robe. But in the end, he didn't move, just stared blankly at the water: "I just saw the enemy, I really, really almost couldn't hold back..."
Chengyun patted the young master's shoulder and comforted him softly: "I understand, I have dreamed countless times that our great revenge will be avenged, and the young master believes that we will one day be happy and cold!" ”
Qi Luofeng nodded seriously, and a pair of clear eyes flashed with starlight, which was extremely dazzling at this moment. His eyes were wet, as if he had cried, and when he heard Chengyun's words, he turned a little red.
He tilted his head slightly, leaned on Chengyun's thin shoulder, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'll borrow your shoulder." ”
After a while, Chengyun heard a slight sobbing sound in his ears, and he didn't know how long it had taken for the young master to come to his senses, but Chengyun's clothes had been wet with tears.
She understands the burden on the young master, and she also understands what kind of difficult road such a man who is only crowned year old will take, but she has no way to share it, the only thing she can do is to borrow him a shoulder.
When the night was getting darker, Luo Feng suddenly raised his hand and put the lantern in the water, watching it be pushed farther away by the flowing water.
Chengyun also let go of the lantern in his hand, so the two lamps floated to a more prosperous place one after the other.
There was a cloud floating in the sky, it must have rained, but at this moment, a little starlight appeared in the nearby grass, which looked like small lanterns.
"Fireflies! Brother Ji, look, it's a firefly! Luo Feng stretched out his hand and shouted like a child.
Chengyun also smiled, looking at the light in the sky and the light on the earth entangled together, and finally merged into a brighter world.
As the rain became heavier, she opened her umbrella and enveloped her wind and herself.
The two men stood up in silence and walked towards the unlit darkness. After walking a few steps, Qi Luofeng said softly: "Thank you for listening to me, and accompanying me to put lanterns and watch fireflies, thank you, I'm really happy." Now it's getting late, so you should go back and rest early. ”
Chengyun shook his head: "It's okay, I don't have anything to do, I'll send you back first, otherwise I'll worry too." This is what I should do, and if you are not happy in the future, come to me. ”
Thinking about what he had done just now, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and a slight blush appeared on his face. He didn't know why he had an indescribable trust in this young man who had only been in touch with him, maybe because he said that he could also control his destiny, or maybe because he had a pair of very pure eyes.
After walking for a while, they arrived at Luo Yun's residence, and the two of them exchanged pleasantries and went in different directions.
All of a sudden, it became quiet, and I was left alone.
The tears that fell from the young master seemed to be still on the placket of his clothes, and there was some indescribable pain on his burning body. This scene seems familiar, as if many years ago, there was such a person sitting beside him, looking at the river lantern, telling his heart.
The two of them were naughty and mischievous together, taught together, studied books together, and the martial arts they learned were all taught by him, as if all their childhood had his shadow.
In those somewhat boring teenage years, it seemed that the most gentle was the teenager next to her, the one she called her cousin, a little proud and a little lonely.
An Muchen... I don't know why, his name is very vague to him, but time has passed, and the people and things he once cared about have finally dispersed with the wind, and he can no longer find the traces of the past. He is the most beautiful man in the capital, but what about himself?
