Chapter 1: Explosion

Next Chapter

Liu Mei stood in the ancient street filled with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers and fluttering golden leaves all the way, and saw Xu Mo's unbuttoned dark blue windbreaker wrapped in a petite and delicate woman, he lowered his head and smiled, as if he was not enough to be pampered.

The heart was instantly shot by thousands of sharp arrows, and it was full of holes, and sharp pain came from the end of the heart, and the pain was so painful that it almost suffocated.

She leaned against a hundred-year-old tree beside her, her hands hanging at her side helplessly, her eyes empty, looking at the two men and women who were lingering as if there was no one beside her.

The woman, with long hair draped on her back, couldn't see her face clearly, only wearing a thin cardigan and short skirt and naked boots in the late autumn season, her back looked wonderful, gently twisting her body in Xu Mo's tall arms, she should be complaining about something, Xu Mo touched her forehead with his forehead, rearranged his windbreaker, and wrapped her tighter.

This man, who was still in their common rental house yesterday, stretched his lazy limbs, saw that Liu Mei, who had not touched the spring water in the past, had begun to skillfully cook him a fragrant dinner, and after eating well, he hugged Liu Mei's waist and said, "Xiaomei, you are so good!" Then he continued to lie on the couch and watch the game as he should.

Liu Mei put away the dishes and chopsticks with his hands and feet and went to the kitchen to wash.

Since graduating and following Xu Mo to Sioux City, the two people have lived together. Xu Mo, who graduated from the law department, found an internship job in a law firm, and Liu Mei, who graduated from a prestigious school, worked as the president's secretary in a foreign company. Although her sister Liu An is already well-known in the legal profession in Sioux City and has bought a house, she still chooses to share a three-bedroom house with Xu Mo and others, occupying a room of 20 square meters.

She feels that the most important thing is not where you live, but who you live with.

can be with Xu Mo, even if she eats and sleeps in the open, she is willing.

In this way, nearly two years have passed, Xu Mo has become a young lawyer, although he is not famous, and there are no big cases to take, Liu Mei is still very proud, because after all, the man she loves is a talented and talented. And Liu Mei jumped to a company and achieved the position of HR director in the current company, although it is not enough to be above, but it is also more than enough.

Nearly twenty-four years old, she is looking forward to the future and Xu Mo's married life, she originally planned to officially meet her parents during the Spring Festival this year, but she was caught off guard by this scene.

It's both real and illusory, Liu Mei watched the two people across the street enter the green rental car, Xu Mo was as considerate as ever to block the top of the car door with his hand, lest he touch her head.

The taxi was gone, and a few fallen leaves flew up, fluttering and spinning for a few times before falling again.

The air in late autumn was really cold, Liu Mei stood firmly, wrapped the same beige windbreaker tightly on his body, and clamped his shoulder bag, but forgot where to go for a while. She looked left and right, the long lonely street, pedestrians hurrying, she stepped across the crosswalk, completely ignoring the whizzing cars on the left, and the pointing lights at both ends of the road were shining red.

She is going to work, by the way, today is Monday, the black Monday of office workers, the unit still has a lot of things to deal with, regular meetings, interviews, all pre-arranged work, how can you escape?

She has always arranged her life and work in order in advance, she is afraid of the panic caused by the chaotic rhythm, she has never lived a life with no sense of security.

What I saw just now was just a phantom, that person was definitely not Xu Mo, it must be someone else wearing the same windbreaker she bought for Xu Mo, but it just happened to be about the same size as Xu Mo and looked a little similar, so it wouldn't be Xu Mo!

He never lied to her, she believed!

However, her hands and feet were cold, and her heart was cold!

It's as cold as the thick ice in the Northeast in the winter!

On this day, she was silent at the regular meeting, cold as ice during the interview, and the rice was not eaten at lunch, she brought her own defensive aura, looking at everyone who looked like a mutineer, there was a fire in her chest burning her internal organs, but there was a piece of ice, the heart was icy and the soul was cold, and the sky of the late autumn was gray and desperate.

Time is so slow but so fast, it's time to get off work, her feet are like being shackled, she doesn't dare to go home, she doesn't want to go home.

She didn't know how to face this man who had been in love for more than ten years, and she didn't know how to face their future, if there was a future.

The streets are almost dark, the street lamps are lit up one after another, reflecting the glory of the city, Liu Mei is walking on the road, walking alone, her mobile phone has not sounded as usual, Xu Mo never seems to take the initiative to call her, she is happy to call over, and ask, "Are you going home for dinner today?" Do you want to buy groceries together? What to eat? If he said, "Let's go home for dinner", she is like a virtuous housewife, on the way to get off work, she went around to the vegetable market to buy the ingredients of his favorite meat dishes, and rushed back to make them, just because when he entered the house, he wrinkled his sensitive nose, took a deep breath and said, "Wow, it's so fragrant, Xiaomei, what did you make delicious?" She smiled and looked back and said, "Okay, wash your hands and eat!" ”

Thinking of this, the heart "Hu Teng" skipped a beat, and the sharp pain like a pinprick surged again.

The evening breeze ripped her long, straight hair, which had not changed in years, and a few strands were tied to the black-rimmed glasses, blocking her view.

What should I do if I stand on my feet in a daze? She sat on the side of the road, watching the endless flow of cars whistling past her eyes, waves of electric cars flashing by, these people in a hurry, want to have a warm home and a person waiting at home?

She pulled out her quiet phone, the black screen like a dark passage that was about to take her to a place where there was no light. Press the screen, the page without a password, turn out Xu Mo's phone number, and set up an incomparably sunny smiling face on the avatar, harmless to humans and animals! Is this the same person who would do those dirty things? She was soft-hearted, she didn't want to believe it, maybe he had a hard time or something else hidden?

Thinking of this, a faint flame ignited in my heart.

That's right, isn't this the case in TV dramas, maybe there really is something else hidden? Or ask it clearly in person, otherwise he should be angry if he wronged him, right?

Even if it was true, she never thought about how to live without Xu Mo? How do I start over? How to forget, how to erase?

Since the age of thirteen, she fell in love with the fair-eyed teenager, after the sweet and obscure middle school years, through the youth of separation and integration, gathering less and leaving more, and finally walked out of the campus and stepped into the society when they could stay together, she thought that this was her life, she thought that this was forever.

It's just that I didn't expect the fairy tale world to shatter so quickly, and "forever" to be so short!
