the other side of the fireworks

Xu An decided to say goodbye to Xia Fengshu. She put on clean clothes, combed her hair neatly, and knocked on Xia Fengshu's door during breakfast time.

She was uneasy. She thought she had broken her promise to Xia Fengshu, the promise of the fireworks factory, and the promise of never being separated.What worries her even more is that she doesn't know how long she will be away this time. She is confident that her relationship will not change even after ten years of separation, but she is not sure that Xia Fengshu will give her so much time.Since Xia Fengshu moved here, she has smelled the smell of breaking up. She can't blame the other party for leaving her for a better life, but can only blame herself for not giving her such a good environment.She shook her head vigorously to get rid of these terrible thoughts. If Xia Fengshu loves me like I love her, she should be willing to endure and persevere for me.

The door opened, and Xia Fengshu stood in front of her holding Miao Miao.

Xu An smiled at Xia Fengshu unnaturally, she felt guilty, then hugged Miao Miao, kissed and kissed again.

"Are you used to living here?"

Xia Fengshu responded, and she realized that Xu An's visit was not as simple as that.

"Well, I'm going to accompany my grandma back to my hometown to recuperate, and I'll be staying for a while, Xia Fengshu, why don't you move back. What's the matter living here?"

"Xu An, don't miss me from now on."

"What's the matter, didn't we talk well?"

"I don't think we fit together..."

"What, what do you mean?"

Xia Fengshu hugged Xiao Miao back, "I want to live here."

"You, want to talk to that Qin?"

Xia Fengshu defaults.

"Because he is rich? He has a big house? He has the ability to help your dad? Or did you make a spark?" After Xu An said these words, he couldn't help but walk around in a circle, and then opened a door at random to enter , It took a long time to come out.Lower your tone and say: "I, I take back what I just said, but I want to know why."

Xia Fengshu put the seedlings in the cart, stood there upright and said, "Probably because of the reasons you just mentioned."

Xu An blinked desperately, but the tears still flowed out. She looked at Xia Fengshu uncomfortablely, but couldn't say a word.She wanted to keep her, using all language and methods.But she couldn't find any advantage.Everything was as expected before knocking on the door.

Xia Fengshu's heart tugged, "Xu An, can you forgive me?"

Xu An shook his head, "Can't you just give me some more time? In order of priority, you should also give me some more time!"

"I don't have time for you, Xu An, we don't have the ability to be together."

"Why not? It just takes a little patience and persistence, plus a little time. Don't you want to be with me? You want me not to leave you."

"I used to think about it, but now I don't. I'm too tired." Xia Fengshu said.

"Then, then you should work hard for me and persevere. In the future, I will repay you a hundred times."

"I can't take it anymore."

"How difficult is it?"

"Please, Xu An, stop talking." Xia Fengshu begged.

Xu An wiped away her tears, thinking of grandma, she instantly lost her determination to stay. "Xia Fengshu, if you miss this time, I won't give you another chance. Have you thought it through?"

Xia Fengshu said: "Xu An, this is not a willful and selfish decision, but that we must separate."

Xu An bent down, kissed Miao Miao, got up, hesitated for a moment, but still kissed Xia Fengshu on the lips, "It's not because I don't love you that I let you go away, it's because I don't have the ability."

Xia Fengshu stared at her obsessively, then Xu An circled her body and kissed together with the last despair.

Xiao Miao, who had been lonely in the walker for a long time, clapped her hands and smiled. In her eyes, her mother must be playing a very interesting game.

Qin Youtao, who had been thinking about animals all night, opened the door and walked out. Xia Fengshu's enthusiasm that wished to melt on Xu An made him dumbfounded.

They stopped, Xia Fengshu was panting, charming and charming, the obsessive red tide and the cock at the corners of her lips made Qin You twitch.And all of this was given by that girl.It's amazing and unbelievable.

The hostility in Xu An's eyes made him feel amused and uncomfortable.

Xia Fengshu picked up Miao Miao and said to Xu An, "Let's go!"

Xu An asked Qin Youtao, "Will you marry her?"

Qin Youtao sneered, "Why should I answer you."

"If you don't want to marry her, don't touch her again." Xu An said loudly.

"Can you marry her?" Qin Youtao asked jokingly.

Xu An glared at him.

"She said I would marry her?" Qin Youtao glanced at Xia Fengshu and asked Xu An.

Xu An looked at Xia Fengshu and said, "This is the life you want, the man you want?"

"No, but what can I do, what can we do? Go back to your grandma, she is the person you should love most, and I am the one who betrayed you, no matter in body or soul." Xia Fengshu only I felt that the blood in my chest was about to spurt out of my mouth, "I'm not good enough for you."

Xu An understood her sadness, she couldn't bear to force her any more, and said softly: "Xia Fengshu, I'm leaving."

Xia Fengshu nodded, not daring to look up at her.

Xu An gently held her shoulder, "I still can't forgive you for leaving me like this, I just admit that I lost."

Tears finally rushed out of Xia Fengshu's eyes, she was too ashamed to speak.

When Xu An left, Xiao Miao cried, she didn't want Xu An to go.

No, this time it seems that I lost convincingly.

The pain of failure suppressed the sadness of breaking up, and the knife of breaking up had penetrated deeply into Xu An's body. After a long time, when the knife was pulled out, the pain was released.

Back in another world, Xu An devoted himself to taking care of her grandma, and her family blamed her quickly disappeared. It seemed that, leaving Xia Fengshu, everything would be solved easily.

No one mentioned that they should get married, that they should get married, and the 24-year-old Xu An seemed to have returned to the life that everyone expected.

Jie Sheng came suddenly, but he was familiar with Xu An's family.The question is what is he here for?The aunt greeted him warmly and accepted the fruit basket and flowers.Then I introduced it to my grandma, who said, "It's Jiechu's younger brother!"

Jie Sheng nodded sharply, and greeted grandma with care.

"Yo, Bijiechu is handsome." Grandma seemed to like tall men very much.

At this moment when Xu An came back from shopping, Jie Sheng stepped forward to hug her enthusiastically, "Why did you go, why isn't the phone turned on?"

Xu An frowned, not knowing what was going on.

During dinner, Xu An understood that Jie Sheng had recommended himself as his son-in-law.Whether it's with his father or his aunt's cousin, he talks endlessly, as if speaking in the tone of his own family.

Grandma acquiesced, and aunt was enthusiastic.

After dinner, Jiecheng said goodbye, and she finally had a chance to talk to Jiecheng alone, "What's the matter with you."

"Pretend to be a wolf with a big tail and make grandma happy!"

"No need, my grandma is very happy."

"I heard that you broke up with that girlfriend, so I'll take advantage of it."

"Do you have the nerve to say such shameless words?" Xu An had no patience for him at all.

"Why can't I say it, I am sincere!"

"What kind of sincerity, you and Jiechu are in an internal war, don't get involved with me. My family doesn't have the money to help you go public, please don't come here to make trouble."

"What did Jiechu tell you about me? Don't think that honest people don't lie or be selfish."

Xu An sneered, she firmly believed in Jie Chu's words. "Why, do you still have an excuse? Want a Rashomon?"

"I'm not such a wife, so I can do whatever I want. I, Jiesheng, just like you, and I don't care if you like women or men. I can marry you home, and I'll be satisfied, proud, and awesome! You have a lot of dowry I'm happy, and I'll accept everything if I have my grandma and sister. The broken car in our family will definitely not affect your life with me. I can afford you and want to marry you!"

"You drink too much!"

Jie Sheng smelled of alcohol, "You marry me, your whole family is happy, and I am worthy of you. To be honest, I don't care even if you slept with Jie Chu, you are better than me with a woman." Don't take it to heart, my purpose is clear, I want you."

"It's a matter of disappearing, don't come here again." Xu An turned around and walked back.

Jie Sheng pulled her back, "I don't want to tear my pants and bind my legs, but when it comes to marrying a wife, you can't compete. At first, I used you to make things difficult for Jie Chu, but since then, any woman walking next to me, I don’t even have the feeling that you are next to me. Really, I’m floating. I was insincere to you at first, but later, I was absolutely sincere.”

Xu An said lightly: "I don't like men."

"You marry me first, and I will make you like me."

"absurd."

"Don't all people change?"

"Let's talk about it after I change."

"I'll help you change!" Jie Sheng shouted at Xu An's back.

Qin Youtao walked away with a dark face.

Xia Fengshu coaxed Xiao Miao, but Xiao Miao stopped crying, and she wanted to cry again. Seeing her mother crying, Xiao Miao also cried.Such a cycle, until the afternoon, the tears gradually stopped.Fortunately, my mother called and said that my father's matter had some clues, and the other party agreed to pay 42 yuan in compensation.Mom was very happy to hear Xiao Miao's voice on the phone, and she couldn't wait to take a look at her right away.

Life is like this, when there is darkness in front of your eyes, there is always a little light projecting in, encouraging you to live on.

Qin Youtao didn't show up for three or four days, and there was no phone call, but Xia Fengshu was worried every day, fearing that he would suddenly appear, especially at night.She even hoped that her aunt would come sooner and stay for a few more days.

That night, Qin Youtao appeared in the apartment. At that time, Xia Fengshu was bathing Miao Miao. The sound of the door opening made her heart tremble, and her hand slipped, almost dropping Miao Miao.

After dawdling in the bathroom for a long time, he finally couldn't avoid meeting Qin Youtao.

Qin Youtao is so smart, he immediately sensed her avoidance, and said with some disappointment: "Don't be afraid of me, I won't touch you. That girl warned me not to touch you until I marry you."

Xia Fengshu took this as irony and did not respond.

Qin Youtao pointed to the documents on the table and said, "This is for you."

"what is this?"

"With it, you don't have to worry about losing Xiao Miao." What Qin Youtao gave her was Yunshang's equity and this property.

"I don't want it." Xia Fengshu refused.

"Take it, rich women are not weak. If you have it, Xiao Miao will always be yours. No one can bully you in court. And you can have what you want."

"Why should I have it."

"Because you used to be my Qin Youtao's woman."

"I'm not." Xia Fengshu said lightly.

"You have to be someone's woman, do you understand? Tong Zhan didn't respond to the rumor that you are my fiancee, so you can rely on my name to protect the person you want to protect."

Xia Fengshu looked up at him, her beautiful face glowed with a faint halo under the light, and there was a smile in her dark eyes, she had never smiled at Qin Youtao like this before, it was so fascinating and confusing .

Qin Youtao sat down and took advantage of the situation to distance himself from her.

"You're such a nice guy." Her voice satirized the smile in her eyes.

Qin Youtao smiled wryly, as if he was held in her hand in a trance. Fortunately, he is not Tong Zhan, and he is not so easy to mess up. He continued according to the original train of thought: "It's meaningless to occupy a woman wishfully. So, you are free." "Qin Youtao touched Xiao Miao's face, "By the way, I really like this little thing."

He got up and looked around, and said in a strange tone: "If you hate me, don't give me another chance to appear in your life."

Xia Fengshu was touched. At this moment, she completely believed every word he said.

Qin Youtao smiled and said, "Men all want to stand on the pinnacle of power and wealth, and they also like to spend a lot of money for women. I promise, Yun Shang, whether you realize cash or participate in management, has nothing to do with me. You have to believe , you are lucky to meet a man like me, and, although I am not a gentleman, I am not a beast either."

lucky?

Xia Fengshu didn't sleep all night, anyone who has so much money overnight, tossing and turning is not a strange reaction.What to do next?Going to court?Take the initiative to attack or brake with static.Holding Xiao Miao in his arms, Xia Fengshu let out a long sigh, still feeling confused about the future.Are you going to ask Qin Youtao?No, you can no longer easily turn to anyone for help.

Xia Fengshu never expected to hear Tong Zhan's voice in this life. On the other end of the overseas phone, Tong Zhan's voice was so distant and real. "Xia Fengshu, you can't marry Qin Youtao, he is my brother, you are not Pan Jinlian, why would you do such a thing."

At the beginning of this sentence, Xia Fengshu actually laughed.

"Don't be afraid of Zhou Yanran, she won't make things difficult for you anymore, you don't have to marry Qin Youtao for Xiao Miao or anyone else."

"Where are you?"

"hell.""

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and Tong Zhan's deep breathing could be heard, and then he said: "Well, I know that I failed to protect you and let Zhou Yanran bully you and our daughter. Now I want to tell you very Important thing. You probably don’t know that I studied in France for two years. My mother found me a French teacher, a Chinese woman in her 30s. She is an unknown painter. She earns some living expenses by teaching students. She doesn’t work very well. Seriously, I'm not a good student either, I often only pay money and don't take classes. So I can't even sing a French song well." Tong Zhan paused, "Xia Fengshu, you have to listen to me carefully. My teacher is called AMBER, she is a talented painter, at least I like her paintings very much. But she has no fame and no money, and her life is very difficult. For a while, she had no place to live, so she borrowed in my apartment, but you I believe I have never had any physical relationship with her. It was also at that time that I met Zhou Yanran, and Zhou Yanran met AMBER through me. They are both painters, so they got along very well. Later, she moved to Zhou Yanran’s studio. , Zhou Yanran and I also broke up. After half a year, AMBER borrowed money from me. I can’t remember how many times I borrowed from her. Tell her, send me a painting, and when you become famous, I can show it off. She didn’t agree, and I wasn’t angry at all, because I respected her and admired her talent. Later, I found out that she was addicted to conch fungus Yes, I borrowed money from me basically for this, I am very sad. Although the art is very extreme, but her appearance really makes me feel bad. I went to Zhou Yanran’s studio to find her, but she is no longer there Zhou Yanran said that she didn't know where she went. I didn't think much about it at the time. There might be some unhappiness between women. Or maybe she couldn't tolerate the current situation of AMBER. Half a month later, I was ready to return to China, and AMBER came again Looking for me, she said that she went to quit for a while, and now she is very tired and wants to find a place to rest. I let her live in my apartment. She only asked for one thing, that is, not to tell Zhou Yanran where she is. Then she gave me A suitcase with 7 of her paintings in it. She asked me to save it for her, because she was worried that she could not control herself. I put those paintings in a safe, and then returned to China. When I go back , the police sealed off my apartment, and she died there because of an XX overdose." Tong Zhan cleared his throat, "Zhou Yanran came to me and asked me if I kept AMBER's things. I think since it's a secret, then I don't want to Good talk to her. After returning to China, I accidentally heard from people in the circle that there was a new painter named Zhou Yanran in China. His works were included in the French Impressionist Art Exhibition, Autumn Salon and so on. In an art magazine. I visited Zhou Yanran’s art exhibition in Shanghai, and I thought highly of myself for having such a talented girlfriend. It’s just that Xiao Sheng’s work, which helped her enter the European art circle, put me off. I was taken aback, it was clearly AMBER’s work, even the brushwork was exactly the same. Another autumn fog that received a good response was also [-]% similar to AMBER’s Lost Spring. I asked her what was going on, and she said it was created by them. Yes, and asked me if I knew where AMBER's paintings were. Tong Zhanhuan suddenly changed his tone, and asked softly: "Are you listening?"Xia Fengshu. "

"Yes." Xia Fengshu has already fallen into AMBER's life.

"Of course I don't believe it. I'm just too lazy to take care of some things, but I'm not an idiot. Later Zhou Yanran confessed to me that she had copied AMBER's paintings. AMBER was very angry. She refused to accept her financial aid and left her studio. AMBER After her death, she looked for AMBER's paintings, but found nothing. Later, in order to gain a foothold in the art circle, she took out that copy to participate in the competition, and the result became a blockbuster. Once she became famous, she entered the world where money can't buy. In that circle, she got what she dreamed of. She told me that she was sorry, and she would find a way to compensate AMBER and take care of her family in China. I don’t think this is what AMBER wants. What AMBER wants most is to use her own The name is signed by Qiu Wu. She asked me to give him a month, but one month later, my mother suddenly advised me to marry Zhou Yanran. She didn't know that there was AMBER between me and Zhou Yanran. She thought Zhou Yanran loved me very much, but Being able to climb up to such relatives means that she will be promoted step by step, and I can continue to be a dandy. Zhou Yanran warned that AMBER died in your Paris apartment because of smoking D. If this news gets out, it will destroy my mother’s career A sexual blow? Xia Fengshu, I compromised, because if I persevere, I will only lose both sides. I can't hurt my mother, and I can't fight for AMBER's reputation. And her family should also need financial assistance. If If AMBER is still alive, he will probably compromise."

In Tong Zhan's tone, Xia Fengshu heard that childish, self-deceiving willfulness again.

"But I didn't give the painting to her. I just promised to keep this secret forever. In this way, we are like two couples who each carried a knife in the bridal chamber. No one trusts the other, and no one can do without the other." Tong Tong Zhan took a deep breath, "In this world, the person I care about most is my mother, she gave me everything, I want to protect her, but now that I am a father, I want to take good care of my child, just like my mother Like protecting me. Xia Fengshu, I have to give up on you. Forgive me for hurting you like that. What kind of bastard would treat getting my girlfriend pregnant as a prank? But I don’t regret doing that, please now Keep this secret, and no one will dare to covet our children."

"Tong Zhan, don't you want to hear Xiao Miao's voice?" Xia Fengshu choked up for a moment.

"I don't want to!" Tong Zhan said firmly: "Don't let me hear her voice, I don't even want to hear your voice. Please shut up, you bad luck woman, I won't bless you You and Qin Youtao."

Xia Fengshu wanted to say something, but he didn't want to hear his own voice.

"That's it..." Tong Zhan hung up the phone.

At noon the next day, Xia Fengshu received a package, opened it, and found two large envelopes.Inside the first envelope was a legal document for Tong Zhan to waive Xiao Miao's custody rights, and the second one contained a house deed, a key, and a passport.The third envelope had a bank address and a string of numbers written on it.

Xia Fengshu was going to take Xiao Miao back to her hometown, so she simply packed two suitcases and called Qin Youtao to say goodbye.

She had never tried so easily before, she thanked Qin Youdao. "Thank you. Without you, Tong Zhan would not have signed the document to waive the custody rights."

Qin Youtao smiled wryly, "Very good."

Xia Fengshu said lightly: "I hope you take Yun Shang back.

"Why, are you really noble enough to refuse such a large sum of money?"

"I want to take it easy, and Xiao Miao has her dad."

"I hope you didn't do this to trap me." Qin Youtao said lightly, "It's just that I, Qin Youtao, will not take back what I gave out."

Half a month after returning to his hometown, Dad left the detention center, but he would stay in a mental hospital for a period of time. Xia Fengshu and his mother went to see him with Xiao Miao in their arms. He was very sober because he had no alcohol to drink.Looking at Xiao Miao through the window and smiling, he muttered how beautiful, how beautiful!

But quitting drinking made him suffer from a serious heart attack, and one morning, in a mental hospital, he passed away suddenly.
