Chapter 11: I Should Thank You
City A.
As soon as Ji Qianheng got off the bus, he received a call from his old high school classmates.
When I was in City A, someone put forward the suggestion that everyone get together, but the people who had a good relationship always couldn't get together, and there were fewer opportunities to meet after leaving City A.
He didn't know if his decisive consent this time had some other purpose in it.
When I got home, my mother was watching the news on the sofa, and I didn't see my father, and I didn't have to guess to know that it must be in his study again, and the relationship between them was always like this, not disturbing each other, quiet and indifferent, and rarely hearing quarrels over contradictions.
Fan Qiuyi saw her son come back, turned off the TV and showed a dissatisfied expression.
"Before I came back, I called you and asked you to bring Shishi back with you, but you came back alone, and you didn't listen to my words at all."
expected that there would be an accusation when he came back, and Ji Qianheng was mentally prepared.
"Mom, I told you, there is no possibility between me and her."
"If you always have a mustard in your heart, it will not be possible with anyone."
Sure enough, his mother didn't really understand his thoughts, and always thought that he was haunted by his past feelings.
"I don't have any mustard in my heart, it's because you're too anxious."
As a university professor's mother, she has always been strict with herself and knowledgeable, and he has admired him since he was a child, but for some reason, he is so persistent about his emotional problems, and it has become more obvious in the past two years.
"I'm in a hurry." Fan Qiuyi analyzed slowly: "As a man, starting a family and starting a career are all roads that must be taken, you can be regarded as having a successful career now, and the difference is to start a family, if you don't set up this small family, it will not be complete for you, even for me and your father." ”
Complete......
The biggest characteristic of a mother is this, she likes to strive for perfection in everything.
How can things in this world be perfect? Not to mention the matter of feelings.
"I don't want to say, you're not young now, so you want to become this family, I just think that you have finally met a suitable person for you now, you should seize this opportunity, cherish it, don't miss this opportunity because of your stubbornness, isn't poetry good?"
"She's fine." Similar topics have almost grinded his ears into cocoons, although he is helpless, but a good education makes him unable to treat him coldly, so he can only joke euphemistically: "I know you like her, it is better to recognize her as your goddaughter." ”
Fan Qiuyi blamed: "Young poor mouth, I'm telling you about this very seriously." ”
"Mom......"
"When you wanted to get out of here, I respected your choice, let you go, and gave you enough time to adjust your mood, but everything should have a degree."
Ji Qianheng really wants to explain to his mother that the relationship between children back then is really not taken to heart to this day.
I want to laugh in my heart, but my mother probably sees him as an infatuated species.
"Qianheng, come in."
There was a call from his father in the study, Ji Qianheng finally relaxed, his loving and tolerant father was always his timely rain.
Walking into the study, the fragrance of ink overflows, and the breath of art comes to your face.
"Nagging by your mother again?" Ji Zhengyao, who was kind and kind, glanced at his helpless son: "She had already nagged me before you came back, saying that I didn't care about your affairs, but I wanted to be concerned, but how can outsiders participate in the emotional problems of these two people." ”
"It's still your old man who can see it thoroughly." It's relatively easy to get along with my father.
"Your mother now sees your life's events more important than anything else, and she likes that girl named Shishi very much, so it's difficult for her to ignore this matter." The years have left traces on men who are over half a hundred years old, but they do not affect the demeanor of youth that can be seen at a glance: "So you have to avoid its edge, use roundabout tactics, and don't fight hard, the result will only be a lose." ”
Ji Qianheng finally smiled.
"Got it, Dad."
"Let's talk?" Ji Zhengyao put down the pen in his hand: "Our father and son haven't chatted for a long time. ”
"Okay."
"That girl named Yan Shi, you really don't like it?"
"Really."
"Got someone you like?"
Strange emotions flashed, "I haven't ...... yet"
"Is that someone ready to like?"
Should I say that my father has a unique vision? Or would it be wrong to refute the father?
"Dad......"
"Looks like it's on the mind." Ji Zhengyao looked at this son who had always been proud, and the satisfaction in his heart made him never willing to criticize him: "Tell Dad." ”
"What will you do if the person I like in the future is not liked by you?" On the way back, I inexplicably remembered this question.
Snooped one or two but didn't do in-depth investigation, Ji Zhengyao only said: "You shouldn't ask us what to do, you should ask yourself, what will you do?" ”
"If you like each other, you decide that that person is the right choice, be prepared for any difficulties, and you have to find a way to balance the relationship."
"What if I don't have a good balance?"
"Oh? My son is so unconfident? Ji Zhengyao patted his son on the shoulder: "Would you like to tell your father, what kind of person is that person?" ”
What kind of person......
The figure that came to mind was like a rose full of thorns.
Wrong! Where did he want to go!
didn't want his father to see that his heart was weak, Ji Qianheng stabilized his mind: "I just said if." ”
"Okay, then let's wait until it becomes a reality."
Ji Qianheng is very grateful to such a father, who gives him enough space to breathe free air.
"Son, no matter what choice you make in the future, I will support you, the premise, you have to ensure that the decision you make is well thought-out, correct, and firm."
The tense nerves were finally relieved: "Thank you, Dad." ”
class reunion, going to the appointment on time, as expected, Ji Qianheng once again became the most high-profile one.
After so many years, the feelings are not as deep as before, and they are limited to chatting in the group for one or two sentences on weekdays.
So Ji Qianheng asked himself why he agreed to participate in this dinner so readily.
He seemed to want to see someone, but he knew that it was impossible to see her.
With her cold personality, there will be ghosts if she can come.
"Among so many of us, if you want to say that you are the most promising, that is, you are Qianheng, I think you were a well-known figure when you were in school, not to mention that you are handsome, and your grades are still outstanding." As Ji Qianheng's tablemate back then, Wang Zhong couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, none of our teachers liked him very much." Someone chimed in, "Don't talk about the teacher, just here, there is a crush on classmate Ji." ”
The woman who has been standing in the past has long lost the youth of the year, and she still smiles shyly when she thinks of the past when she was young: "Okay, don't mention my troubles, and then I'm gone, I hate it." ”
Ji Qianheng smiled and didn't speak.
"Besides, I wasn't the only one who had a crush on him back then!"
Maybe the events of that year were too ostentatious, and this resonated with everyone as soon as it came out.
"If you want to say that what I am most worried about our Ji talent, it should be Leng Qinghe, she announced to everyone that he likes classmate Ji, and warned others not to fight with her, for this matter, our head teacher talked to her a lot."
"That's it." Someone hid his face and smiled: "It's funny to think about, she's so bold, what's the name of that word?" Committing a crime against the wind, yes, yes, that's it, the school clearly stipulates that you are not allowed to fall in love, but she is good, she doesn't take the rules into account at all. ”
"People didn't talk about whether it was good or not." Some people who understand stood up and explained: "People are just declaring sovereignty and labeling our Ji Gongzi with an exclusive label." ”
"It's thanks to her family's money and good study, otherwise it would be strange if she didn't fire her waywardness."
There was a hint of envy and jealousy in these words.
Recently, the name that often disturbed his mind was mentioned again, and the calm lake was forced to make a small wave.
"Speaking of this, Leng Qinghe, why did he suddenly transfer to another school back then, and it was inexplicable."
"You don't know yet?" Wang Zhong was quite surprised: "I thought you all knew." ”
"What is the situation, how do we know, hurry up and talk about it."
At that time, everyone's minds were studying, volunteering, and Leng Qinghe's departure set off a moment of speculation and curiosity, but it was quickly left behind by everyone, just a hurried passerby.
"At that time, her father was investigated for corruption and bribery, and before he could arrest anyone, he committed suicide, and I heard that it was because of the huge amount of embezzlement, and I knew that I couldn't hide, and I committed suicide under too much mental pressure."
Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere was gloomy with news that they had never heard before.
"Within a few days, her mother couldn't stay up and committed suicide."
His fists gradually clenched, Wang Zhong's words exploded in Ji Qianheng's ears like thunder, and a sullen breath in his chest was difficult to exhale, why did he not know these things at all, obviously ...... Obviously they are all in the same city.
He really ignored her.
"Later, it seemed that she was adopted, and she transferred to another school."
"It's really fake!"
As a former classmate, although there is not much friendship, but always hope that none of this is true, although the girl is a little willful, but she treats her classmates very well, and she will bring some snacks they have never seen to share with them on weekdays.
The most impressive thing is her smile, she is already good-looking, flawless and bright, like a branch of flowers, filled with fragrance.
Because of the comparison between girls and girls, it is inevitable that she will be jealous, why can she get God's favor and enjoy the innate blessings.
She is like an epiphany in the night, blooming brilliantly and dazzlingly, and then disappearing.
"It's really fake, of course it's true, I can talk nonsense about this kind of thing." Wang Zhong's tone was not like a joke: "Actually, just go to her house and inquire, that is, we are far away, and we didn't care much about her at that time." ”
"Eh, Qianheng, I thought you knew, after all, you were ...... at that time" Wang Zhong was quite regretful: "Forget it, don't mention it, it's quite unfortunate to say, how to say that she was also the school flower of our school at that time, she was beautiful and good at studying, I still thought at the time, you two are golden boys and girls, maybe you can become a pair in the future." ”
