Chapter 313: Xiyue's Gift
"Leave it to fate."
"But fate is quite unreliable."
Xiyue smiled and said, "You just need to be reliable, live well, bring out the best in yourself, so that all those who despise you can treat you fairly, and it is good to insist on running in the morning for more than one body...... If one day I go back home and bump into you and you're still the same asshole as before, I'm sure I'll ......"
"Surely so?"
"It's time to check the ticket."
I complained, "Why are you such a girl, you are secretive. ”
"The blue box in the bag is a special gift for you, promise me to open it when you are the saddest."
"What if I don't say yes?"
Xiyue looked at me with a trusting smile, took two steps back, and waved at me again, leaving the back of the departure to me.
After a few steps, she suddenly turned around and smiled at me, "Goodbye!" ”
I can't say goodbye, because her smile has been deeply imprinted in my heart, and I am uncomfortable at this moment, it is a kind of discomfort as if my beloved thing has been taken away.
With a "goodbye", she was drowned out in the surging crowd and disappeared from my sight in the blink of an eye.
Then I realized that the next time I was going to see her, I don't know what year and month it was.
……
On the plane, I kept thinking what that gift was?
But every time I wanted to take off the box and open it to take a look, I remembered the trusting smile that Xiyue left me, and finally had to suppress my curiosity.
I looked out the window frequently, and high in the sky, I imagined that I would see her back, and the gust of wind brought a faint fragrance from her body.
But none of this happened, and the sadness that came gradually filled my mind and completely overwhelmed me.
After falling asleep, I had a dream.
Many years later, Xiyue and I met, and we were both silver-haired in the demolished Lushan Hutong.
In the early spring when everything grows, the banyan tree at the mouth of the alley has not carried the cold winter after all, we stand face to face, there is no emotion, no sadness in spring and autumn, some just smile.
We tell about what happened all these years, she is still single, she has really been single for the rest of her life, and I already have grandchildren.
The young people of that year were drowned in the ordinary days, but I still miss the sunny days and smelled the lavender flowers that day.
……
After dozens of hours of flying, the plane finally landed at the capital airport, and this time the transit point was not in Shanghai.
As soon as I got off the plane, I bought a ticket back to Chongqing and wanted to get home before dark.
While waiting for the flight, I sent a message to Xiyue for a safe landing.
About three minutes later, she replied: "I didn't give 500,000 yuan for selling the car last time, and when your classmates have money, you collected the money for me, and I bought a car in the 4S store, and you can just go and get it when the time comes, I told it over there." ”
I looked at the text message, and I vaguely understood in my heart, but I couldn't grasp the point, so that I was stunned for a long time at the text message, but my heart was throwing the feelings that came when I was groping for her separation.
I quickly messaged her back, but never heard back from her.
Back in Chongqing, it happened to be dark, and the people on the road were already sleepy, so after coming out of the airport, I took a taxi and went straight to Lushan Hutong.
The rapid transition between cities has not allowed me to get used to it for a while, and it feels like a dream in the past few days, with the flick of a finger.
Looking out the car window, the familiar street, the familiar yellow Ferrari, everything is familiar, but it is full of an inexplicable strangeness.
I don't know where this strangeness comes from, only that I'm really only one person from now on.
In the past, at least Tian Jie was by my side to accompany me crazy and make trouble with me, and no matter how bad it was, Tang Jian's small bar was the last dependence.
And now, Tian Jie has gone to Shanghai, Tang Jian has also gone to Dali, and Xiyue has also stayed in France.
The people around him seemed to have left suddenly, but fortunately, Xie Dongqing was still there.
When I got home, I was just in time for my meal.
My parents knew I was going to France on a business trip, but they didn't know that I was coming back today, and they were a little surprised to see me.
My mom looked at me in surprise and said, "Didn't you go to France?" Why did you come back so soon? ”
"Well, I'll be back when I'm done."
"Then why don't you call in advance, you haven't cooked your food."
I'm used to it, and sometimes even when I'm at home, they forget about me.
I smiled and said, "It's okay, I just ate some on the plane, you guys eat." ”
My dad said to me again, "I'm going to cook some noodles, you can sit and eat." ”
"It's okay, Dad, I'm not hungry."
My dad is stubborn, it's useless to say anything, he's already gone to the kitchen to get busy.
After I sat down, my mother asked me, "Didn't you go with that girl from Xiyue?" Why didn't she come back with you? ”
"She's not coming back."
"Not coming back? Stay over there? ”
"Hmm."
"What's so good about France, why do you suddenly want to stay there."
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Who knows, she has her own ideas." ”
My mother seemed to see my mood, and suddenly whispered to me, "Ah Chang, tell me honestly, do you like that girl?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and said, "Why do you say this again?" ”
"Do you think I can't see it? When you come back from this trip, you can't give up. ”
"I'm so tired from tossing and turning, you think too much, Mom."
My mother smiled again and said, "It's okay if you don't admit it, but I want to tell you, if you like it, chase it, don't regret it later, just remember my words." ”
"It's really nothing."
My mom didn't say anything more, and I didn't continue the conversation.
After my dad cooked the noodles and came out, we ate them together as a family, and my dad rarely asked me about my work and whether my trip to France was going well.
With the care of my family, my tired body and mind naturally get a lot of comfort, this is the feeling of home, and it is also what Xiyue has been looking for, but I have always had.
After eating, I took out the gift that Xiyue specially bought from France to my parents and told them that it was Xiyue bought for them in France.
Before I could open it, my mother said, "Why is this girl buying things again, she has bought us a lot of things before and after." ”
"Yes, I said the same, but she insisted on buying it, saying that if you treat her well, she will give you back with three points."
My mother smiled and said with emotion: "Xiyue, this girl is really likable, she just lacks love." ”
My mother really woke up the dreamer with a word, although she didn't have much contact with Xiyue, but as a person who came over, she could see that Xiyue was a person who lacked love, so she always showed that she felt very strong, but in fact, her heart was extremely fragile.
I still helped my parents open the gift, and it turned out to be a tea set for my dad, I never told her that my dad likes to drink tea, but she knew that it was enough to show her meticulousness.
It's a smart bracelet for my mother, this is not an ordinary smart bracelet, this kind of bracelet can monitor people's health problems, whether it is blood pressure or heart rate, it can be captured very accurately, and once there is a situation, it will automatically alarm the bound mobile phone.
She really thought it too much, and my mom really needed such a thing, and her body has not been very healthy.
At the same time, I saw the blue box she had given me, and I wanted to open it again to see what it was......
