Chapter Seventy-Five: Nothing Says (Volume 2)
"Got it!"
Guo Jia looked at Leng Yue for a while, watching, looking, his eyes became moist again.
"Do you think that I am only unwilling to you?" he shook his head slowly, then sighed, and said, "Big brother, he ...... As if anxious about your illness, he has been wandering downstairs in the hall, walking around on crutches...... And asked me countless times, how are you?"
An even more strange look crossed his eyes, and after saying these words, he ran out of the room without looking back.
Leng Yue leaned on the bed and watched Guo Jia leave.
Her heart is sober and moving, sad and gratifying.
She didn't understand what this emotion was, but at this moment, she deeply realized the two words 'tolerance'! She also knew from Guo Jia that at this time, Yuanshan's heart.
*
It was a sleepless night.
Leng Yue lay on the bed and looked out the window.
The moonlight was fine tonight, and she could see a few stars in the distance, shining high in the clear sky. She stared, her heart empty. There seems to be no thought, no desire. Her mind was silent, and her brain was like a vast desert.
Since she became ill, it has been a while since Xiaojuan took annual leave and moved back to directly care for Yuanshan. She barely saw him except at the dinner table, let alone the chance to speak alone.
What a fool yourself, wood!
That day, Yuanshan asked himself, why didn't he say it happily and tell him that he was Leng Yue! In that way, he could leave with peace of mind!
Now, she's starting to have insomnia.
At first, I kept my eyes open until dawn.
Her mind was so clear, her consciousness was so awake, she knew she couldn't sleep.
She looked at the moon, at the stars, at the dark sky of night, until she saw the glimmer of dawnβthe dawn of a new day!
She sighed, and her heart cramped to meet this new, helpless day.
Tonight, it's another night like this.
She felt her eyelids heavy and sore, but she couldn't close them, her mind was too clear.
At this time, her mobile phone suddenly rang, and in the silence of the night, it rang strangely and harshly.
She was startled and looked at her watch, three o'clock in the morning! Who is this?
She picked up her phone and said "Hey-" impatiently.
"Ye Shuang?" the other man's voice was low and clear. "Hope you didn't sleep. "It's Yuanshan, he called.
Leng Yue's heart beat wildly, and a layer of tears instantly rushed into her eyes.
"Leaf frost. He whispered, his voice so soft, so sincere, so full of the most genuine emotions. "I'd love to meet you. β
Is it true?really?he wants to see me?And it's this time!Leng Yue bit her lip, tears silently sliding down her cheeks.
"Why don't you speak?" Yuanshan was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Did I disturb your sleep?" Answer me and let me know you're listening!"
"Do you know what time it is?"
"Yes, I know. Yuanshan said: "I can't sleep, and besides, Xiaojuan went home tonight...... You know, I can't get up the stairs on my lap, and I can't get to see you, so I can't help but call. He sighed. "How are you?
"Thank you for remembering me!"
She suddenly said with some snarkyness, her nose sour.
"Are you mad at me?" he asked softly, worried.
"Why are you angry!" Leng Yue choked and said, "Aren't you enjoying the joy of family every day, enjoying the mountains and rivers, and being very happy? I'm just a domestic servant hired by your family, so what right do you have to be angry!"
He was silent for a few moments, without a sound at all.
Leng Yue began to get nervous, or, she shouldn't be angry with him, she should understand his situation.
She felt her heart flutter for a moment, and then she heard her own slightly trembling voice say:
"Uncle, are you still there?
"I'm here. β
The distant mountains whispered.
There was another short pause.
"Ye Shuang, I want to see you, I'm in the study. β
There was a deep sigh in his voice.
"Okay, I'll get down right away!"
The other party took the line, but Leng Yue still held the phone and lay weakly on the bed.
It took a long time for her to suddenly jump up, kiss the phone, and then gently put it away...... She looked in the mirror, brushed her unkempt hair, and then she went downstairs.
She hurried downstairs, to the study, and stood in the doorway.
The door opened all of a sudden, and Yuan Shan was standing there with a cane in one hand and a doorknob in the other.
When she entered, she closed the door gently.
They stood and looked at each other for a long time, and something damp came up in their eyes.
"Ye Shuang, I'm sorry, I couldn't go to see you, are you all cured?"
Hearing his caring greeting, Leng Yue took a deep breath, tears rushed into her eyes, and flowed down her haggard cheeks.
Toyama put his hand on her shoulder, he examined her, scrutinized her, and then, with his thumb, wiped the tears from her cheeks.
She closed her eyes, and new tears rolled down the corners of her eyes......
"Don't cry anymore, Ye Shuang! I'm sorry for you!"
Yuanshan looked at her very gently, and his tone was kind and steady.
"At first, Xiaojuan said to me, Sister-in-law Li is just going back for a day or two, you are just temporarily replaced, and there are part-time workers to help, and she is not at ease with others. I didn't intervene too much...... I didn't expect that Sister-in-law Li would be gone for several days, it was really hard for you! And it made you tired and sick, which really made me worry to death. β
"I'm fine, it's just ......" Leng Yue turned her head and said in a very unstable tone: "I miss the old days very much." β
"Really?"
Leng Yue's words dragged Yuanshan into another realm, that is, the two months of companionship, as well as the days of helping and taking care of him.
"The old days?" he muttered, and asked, "How long ago was it?" asked Yuanshan with some uncertainty.
Leng Yue hesitated for a moment, and glanced at him quickly.
"Before today...... Or, five years ago......," she said.
The distant mountain shook violently, as if something had stabbed him.
After a moment, he relaxed, smiled and said, "You promised me that you would share your secret with me in some days, I want to ask, when is such a day?"
He asked very lightly, as if in a joking tone, but Leng Yue could see that there was a pain in his eyes, and the blood vessels by his temples were beating, which leaked his excited emotions and painful feelings.
