"It's only four o'clock, you close your eyes and sleep for a while." Ritsu looked at the time and said this to me.

"Hmm." I listened to him and closed my eyes. I felt him move slowly, as if I was going to go back to him. My heart tightened, and instead of letting go of the hand that was tugging at the corner of his clothes, I pulled him tighter, and subconsciously dragged him in my direction.

Afraid that he would really leave, I simply opened my eyes to look at him. Because of my dragging, his face was close to me, so close that his breath melted. My face flushed.

Seeing that I was embarrassed, Ritsu Zhaochuan hooked the corners of his lips, which was a signal of playfulness.

"I just wanted to adjust my sitting position." There was an innate sense of charm in his deep voice, "You just don't want me to go." ”

I was speechless, and I felt even more ashamed.

Ritsu Zhaochuan hooked my nose with his index finger: "If you really can't sleep, let's play games." ”

"What, what game......" I pulled the quilt over my face, leaving only a pair of eyes to look at him.

Ritsu pointed in a circle, flicked my forehead, and then said, "Well, let's play 'Truth or Dare.'" Don't risk the truth. ”

"That's it, chat." I breathed a sigh of relief.

He smiled: "Can't lie about chatting." ”

"Okay."

"Let me ask first, you're having nightmares again?" Ritsu asked.

"You know ......," I was a little surprised.

"We said we would get better together. You're lagging behind. ”

When I was at the lawyer's house, I had nightmares, he had insomnia, and we both had a grudge against sleep.

"So, is your insomnia cured?"

"Alright. With you by my side, I don't lose sleep. I'm just excited and sleepless, or, lonely. ”

I was amused by him.

"Hey!" I couldn't help but protest, "You don't say such things with a cold face......"

"Can you tell me why you're having nightmares again?"

“…… Well? "I don't understand what he means.

"Every time you have a problem, you have nightmares that night. It seems to be the pattern of your nightmares. ”

I was stunned, then rolled over and buried my head in the pillow. Ritsu Zhaochuan really knows me very well, even more than myself. I buried my head deep and my nails dug deep into my palms. Forcing the heat that almost wants to snatch out of the eyes flows back.

I kept my head so stuffy and tried to explain with a smile: "Oops, I seem to be getting more and more hypocritical lately. This morning, I was watching a TV series in the living room, and I casually incited a little emotion, and I actually started to have red eyes and sour nose. It's funny. ”

Maybe it's because the voice is suppressed. Obviously he said it with a smile, but it still sounded so sad.

Ritsu Terukawa straightened me. He held my face and looked me in the eye. His eyes were sharp, and he could easily see through my disguise, so he asked under the pretense of a game.

Indeed, I don't have nightmares for no reason. It's just that the cause of my new nightmare can't be explained directly to Ritsu Zhaochuan.

A few days ago, I met Ms. Fukayama.

Because the progress of Ah Ning's book to the factory has been accelerated, in order to agree on the details of the work process, Sister Liu asked me to go back to the company for an interview. As the talking point of the company, I also left because I was in the midst of a storm. I feel a little embarrassed to see my old colleagues again. I didn't tell Sister Liu about this little psychological activity. She's busy enough at work, and my hypocrisy will only cause her trouble.

I've been there a few times. One of them, a few days ago, I was reunited with Ms. Fukatsu at the elevator entrance of the company.

When they met their eyes, I bowed. She glanced at me, but there was no voice or body response. His eyes were like blades, flying towards me with pieces of cold air, as if he wanted to freeze all the air on this side.

When the elevator arrived, she entered, and I didn't move.

I know she doesn't like me, and I don't want to annoy her. I took the initiative to avoid it and planned to wait for the next elevator. But Ms. Shenling pressed the button inside, raised her eyebrows and asked me, "Aren't you coming in?" ”

Huh? I had a bad premonition, and it was inconvenient to flinch at the moment, so I stepped into the elevator with my head held high and rode upstairs with her.

Sure enough, as the elevator doors closed, the narrow elevator immediately turned into her battlefield.

She repeatedly swept me from top to bottom with cold eyes, despising me. It's an extremely uncomfortable stare. I forced myself to greet it, and I didn't run away.

"I really underestimated you. You not only use the young master of the Su family as a gunman, but also use Lu Zhaochuan as a shield, do you think that under the maintenance of the two of them, you can do whatever you want? Ms. Shenling suddenly charged.

Even though I was mentally prepared, this accusation was beyond my expectations.

Take Su Weining as a gun, and then use Zhaochuan as a shield, how dare I......

"Chen Xu has been in the detention center for three months, and his white-haired father, who treats his son as his life, doesn't know how many people have begged him to get him, and they all begged me to come here. It's a pity, no matter who is the lobbyist, Lu Zhaochuan refuses to reconcile, I think what happened, it turned out that it was all because of you...... I don't know what kind of ecstasy you poured into Ritsu Zhaochuan, he is like a madman. ”

I don't know the purpose of Ms. Shenling's words, but I didn't respond rashly.

My world is so small, and the news is so closed. People say that the scar is good and forgets the pain. Sure enough, yes. With the pain gone, I packed my bags and prepared for a new life, even though I still had a shallow white scar on my face.

If it weren't for Ms. Shenling's reminder, I would have really, almost forgotten about Chen Xu.

I forgot, but it didn't all pass.

It was Ritsu Zhaochuan who stepped in to deal with it, and he blocked all the bad things for me.

The reason why I live so leisurely and calmly is all because of Ritsu Zhaochuan. He kept all distractions out of the door beforehand. Squatting in the hut, holding an oil paint and a few paintbrushes, I could live my life. Ritsu Terru River is the sunlight that suddenly shines in. I greedily and calmly drew kindness, warmth, help, and finally love from him.

While Ms. Fukazu finished speaking, the elevator arrived.

The elevator doors open.

"You're just like your mother, you're all the way."

Lady Deep Ridge swept me away in disgust, and walked away with a sharp footsteps.

There was no direct physical altercation, but I received her unmistakable hatred.

How do you bridge the gap between me and Ritsu Kawa?

Is it a desperate attempt to participate in a drawing competition? This time, the bonus is 30,000 yuan, which is the largest in my income, in addition to luck, Zhang Jifan's help, and this income is just enough for Lu Zhaochuan to buy a sofa. Or, embezzle a huge amount of money that doesn't belong to me again, go back to the stock market, and buy low and sell high to get the difference? Or, invest in a promising project......

Is the gap between us really just because of money?

Can we be happy without being blessed?

Countless questions swirled around my mind. I tossed and turned night after night, and sadly, the more I thought about it, the more confident I became.

In fact, it's not just Ms. Fukahari who is not optimistic about me and Ritsu Zhaochuan. And my adoptive parents who are far away across the ocean.

I've been writing to them, although I've never received a response. I suspect that they didn't hear from me, after all, there are so many anecdotes on the Internet about the bad postal system that feed my fantasies — my letters may still be slowly delivering.

Once a week, I report on the situation and talk about my thoughts. The overseas address has become my own safe tree hole.

I didn't expect to receive a reply from my father.

Unexpectedly, this first reply letter turned out to be a letter of objection.

Selangor,

We have all received your previous letters.

Before, because your mother's condition was not stable and the medical laboratory was in constant condition, my father didn't want you to be distracted.

Recently, your mother's condition was stable and her health was greatly improved, and I forwarded your letter to her. She reads your letters whenever she has time.

You're happy, she's happier than you. Your letter is her comfort.

Until she saw the latest one you sent, you said that you and Ritsu Zhaochuan decided to date......

Your mother is very worried.

She told me that she didn't want any more treatment and wanted to go back to China to see you immediately.

Your mother has not been eradicated, and now that the treatment is improving, you can't just give up. I tried to dissuade her.

Selangor, no matter which name you use on your ID card, you will always be our daughter.

As parents, we should have respected your choice. But if that person is Ritsu Zhaochuan, we will be suspicious.

Yes, your mother and I both feel that Ritsu Zhaochuan is not a good match for you.

Probably, you will think that we are arbitrary.

We just hope you don't get hurt more.

Father: Mu Rusheng

When I first read the letter, I didn't react much, but folded it in the drawer.

Until the moment when Lu Zhaochuan directly probed his thoughts, he suddenly remembered the words in the letter. My chest twisted violently, and I instinctively tugged at my heart, bending over to endure.

It turned out that the colic of being late was so unbearable.

- Mom and Dad, he is so good, if you see him, you will think he is very good.

If it was just Ms. Fukayama's objection, I could have put up with it, but my father's letter completely disturbed my mind.

I trudged alone through a dark tunnel.

There is no light to guide you.

I don't know the exit.

In the tunnel, I was blind and deaf.

When Ritsu Zhaochuan saw me like this, he panicked. Asked me urgently, "Chest pain?" How can it hurt suddenly, there is no medicine and no ......"

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a while."

"I see, I know. If you don't want to say it, I won't ask. Lu Zhaochuan hurriedly said. As if to relieve my colic, he opened his palm and pressed it against mine.

The pain lasted for a long time, and finally passed.

I said weakly, "Mr. Ritsu...... How is he? Neglecting to greet him, should I go and say hello to him? ”

This time, only Mr. Lil has not yet expressed his position, what does he think, if he also strongly opposes it...... What am I going to do?

"Are you worried?" The perceptive Ritsu Zhaochuan quickly saw through my thoughts, "You're afraid that if he doesn't agree, he'll intervene." ”

I didn't answer.

"No, it won't. He won't take care of my business. As for my mother. You don't even have to take it to heart. I'll take care of it. I'll take care of everything. ”

He said firmly.

And held my hand so tightly that it hurt me.

I buried my head in his arms and closed my eyes.

No more talking.

But my heart could no longer be at peace.
