Meet·Lijiang

The small town is very quiet at night, and the crescent moon hanging in the sky outlines the outline of the distant mountains, which is so blurry that it looks so strange.

Zhuang Zijing and Yang Hui sat by the window of the small living room, made some tea and chatted.

"If you can't sleep, why don't you tell me about your family, or about Yan Yu?" Yang Hui took a sip of the tea Zhuang Zijing made for her. Although the two are very good friends now, But Yang Hui knew almost nothing about Zhuang Zijing's situation.

Zhuang Zijing laughed: "You are also a person who likes to gossip."

Yang Hui's eyes were rounded, and he looked wronged and wronged: "It's not gossip, it's caring. The old women in the town like to tell me about everything at home, and it won't be so bitter after talking about it. Just be happy."

"So you are a trash can for other people's emotions." Zhuang Zijing smiled.

Yang Hui smiled: "It's good to be a trash can. Only when others are willing to dump it can I be a trash can. It shows that I am a good person. So there is a trash can as good as mine in front of you. Why don't you talk about it?" Isn't it a bit of a waste?"

"I'm not one of those old women in your town who keeps going from east to west."

"I am not an ordinary trash can, I am a trash can that can be sorted and recycled."

Zhuang Zijing laughed, Yang Hui also laughed, and when the laughter stopped, the room seemed to be eerily quiet.Zhuang Zijing felt a little depressed, starting from the call from her street mother at noon today, and even though she cheered up and went back to have a blind date with Yang, and ate a lot of barbecue together, running away could not solve the troubles.But now that Yang Hui asked, his pretended letting go was quickly broken, and the pain in his heart almost spilled out of his mouth.

"My mother...forget it, why don't I tell you about Yan Yu." Zhuang Zijing brought her mother to her mouth and swallowed it. It's not that she didn't want to tell Yang Hui, but that after many years of pain, she just It hurts to even talk about her.Instead of that, it's better not to say it.

"Okay, you can say whatever you like."

"Yan Yu was my senior sister when I was in college. She was a year older than me. Her family is considered a well-known family in the local area. She runs a large-scale clothing factory, mainly for export. I don't know how we got together. After all, she and I are people from two worlds, the first time we met was in the library, she seems to have known me for a long time..."

"It means you were a celebrity at that time." Yang Hui looked at Zhuang Zijing with a smile, what was university like?I have never been there before, but I think it should be a place with a beautiful environment, full of books, and many handsome men and beautiful women. I think of those universities in TV dramas, put Zhuang Zijing in it, and Yang Hui suddenly felt how attractive Zhuang Zijing should be like that people!

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "There are so many beauties in college, how could I be a celebrity, and I am busy with study and part-time work all day long, plus the school's work-study program, where I have time to appear in the eyes of others, don't say What a celebrity."

Yang Hui nodded: "You are a good student."

"Yes, she is a good student." Zhuang Zijing smiled: "Later, we spent more and more time in contact. When I went to the library, she also went to the library. Sometimes I will be too busy to eat, and sometimes I am too poor to eat, but when I go back to the dormitory at night, she will buy something to eat and wait for me downstairs. If she has something to do, she will buy it for me and let us dormitory Classmates brought it to me."

"She treats you very well." Yang Hui felt that his mouth was a little tasteless, so he took a sip of tea quickly.

Zhuang Zijing nodded: "Yes. When people are in trouble, they also want someone to rely on and someone to talk to. I really couldn't refuse her appearance at that time. The people in the dormitory said that I caught someone The big coffee of Qian said that she is an idol in our department, but these are not important to me. What is important to me is that there is someone who can give me meticulous care and comfort when I need it .”

Yang Hui didn't speak anymore. When Zhuang Zijing talked about the past, she still had a look of regret on her face, so Yang Hui also felt a little regretful, regretful that such feelings did not come to an end, and regretful that he did not He has been to college and has never been a classmate with Zhuang Zijing, otherwise, could he have hoped that he was the one who brought her food every night when she needed it most.

"I was with her when I was in my junior year. She let me work in her family's company until I graduated from college. Because she is the only daughter in the family and the sole heir of the family business, so after that garment factory It must be hers. I also agree, because I can help her because I work there. But I didn’t expect that our affairs would be known by her family soon. In order to prevent her from getting too unhappy with her family, I resigned Arrived at Yixing to work."

"You also paid a lot for her." Yang Hui said.

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "As long as you are serious, how can you not pay." However, she did not say how much or what she has paid for Yan Yu, but continued: "I have been working in Yixing for more than two years. I became a senior manager, and because of the family relationship, my mother and the chairman of Yixing decided to get engaged to the chairman's son Dulan for me."

"Really, another side issue has arisen, so you have to leave Yixing again?" Yang replied.

"I wanted to leave Yixing and go to the world with Yan Yu, but she didn't agree." Zhuang Zijing was silent for a while: "Because the clothing exports had shrunk a lot at that time, Yan Yu's business was facing difficulties. At that time, Yixing With a national chain of department stores in hand, it has become Yixing's largest customer. If she leaves with me, then the matter between us will definitely be brought to the table, and it will seriously affect the cooperation between Yixing and Yan's. Yes It is said that the life and death of the Yan family depends on Yan Yu's decision."

"Then..." Yang Hui also felt a little heavy.

"At that time, I didn't want to get engaged to Du Lang. I was a little afraid and disgusted. So I asked Yan Yu to take me away. But she refused." Zhuang Zijing lowered her head and smiled again: "So, me and her That's all, that's all."

"It's a pity, what happened later? Why did she come to you again? Although I don't know very well, I heard from your conversation that Dulan is gone?"

"Yes, the parents of both sides have actually agreed on the date of marriage between Du Lang and me, and it will be after Du Lang takes over as the general manager of Yixing. And Du Lang was originally scheduled to take over the position of general manager around the Spring Festival this year, that is to say If there are no accidents, I should have married Dulan at that time. But Dulan died suddenly due to overwork, and this matter will naturally come to an end."

"So after hearing the news of Du Lang's death, Yan Yu came to see you again?"

"should be."

Yang Hui was silent for a moment: "Do you hate her?"

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "I don't hate. Everyone should make a responsible choice, not only responsible for love, but also responsible for the family. She had no choice but to let go. If she really left with me then , then the Yan family may be finished. She will become the sinner of the Yan family, and thousands of employees will also face unemployment. In fact, if I am now, I will not make such demands on her. "

"Then... Now, there is no obstacle, you can be together again... Congratulations." Yang Hui tried to make himself laugh, but her smile was a little bit awkward.

Zhuang Zijing shook her head: "Just because I don't hate her, doesn't mean I will love her again. She chose to be responsible to the family, and she naturally gave up her responsibility to me. And after so many years, I have a lot of ideas. Change. Was it because I was actively attracted to her when I was with her or because I was too tired and confused at that time, and I wanted to be alone. I can’t tell now. But at least one thing is when I was most difficult , will not accept other people's love. Because I think at this time, my judgment may be biased."

"Is this the most difficult time for you?" Yang asked back.

Zhuang Zijing smiled again: "It can be considered. At least it was the most difficult time in recent years. But it is also the most leisure time. At such a time, it would be good if you can stop, and you can think about what you want in the end What is it, think about it later."

Yang Hui nodded: "It feels like your world is so complicated."

"The world is inherently complicated."

"But isn't the complexity of the world due to the complexity of people? When a person thinks because the world is complicated, she is also complicated, but if a person thinks the world is simple, then she can live in a simple way. "Yang Hui said very seriously, she thinks the world is actually very simple, that is to do a little work to get some income, meet material needs, and then live happily according to her own thoughts.

Zhuang Zijing looked at Yang Hui with interest: "I think what you said sounds quite reasonable."

Yang Hui laughed: "What is the purpose of people being complicated?"

"It's for a better life." Zhuang Zijing thought for a while: "For example, if you are complicated at work, it is to gain an advantage in the competition and get a higher position or income. For example, if you are complicated in life, it is to figure out what others are doing. in order to make appropriate responses and avoid being deceived..."

Yang Hui shook his head: "But the complexity itself makes life difficult."

"But are there other ways?" Zhuang Zijing asked. Isn't life inherently complicated?The working environment is complicated. For example, how many people are trying their best to be the vice president of Yixing, trying to come up with all kinds of tricks to get in the position?And the relationship between people is also complicated, such as myself and my mother, also like myself and Mo Shu, or even myself and Yan Yu.

Yang Hui tilted his head and thought for a while: "The complicated purpose is just to obtain material satisfaction, but what is satisfaction? When you have no money, you think about ten thousand, when you have ten thousand, you think about one hundred thousand, and when you have one hundred thousand, you think about one million ...But in fact, the family has a lot of money, only three meals a day, ten thousand rooms in the mansion, and only three feet of sleep at night. Let go of these things, and live a more relaxed and happier life."

Zhuang Zijing looked at Yang Hui for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "I want to have a big meal."

"Didn't you just eat for a while?" Yang Hui was a little puzzled.

Zhuang Zijing continued, "Tomorrow."

"Okay, what do you want to eat, I invite you."

"I want to eat the whole meal of Jin Chi Xuan."

Yang Hui was astonished: "Although I haven't eaten it, I've heard of it. A meal costs tens of thousands. Do you really want to eat it?"

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "I just want to say that people's desires are unlimited. Although everyone knows that without desires, you can be strong, but how many people are there who are truly pure-hearted? Even if a person likes a simple life and has no material requirements Gao, but what about her family? What about her lover? When her closest relatives are full of desires for the world, how can this person be alone? People are bound by these relationships in this society. Few people can Live alone like you."

"It's a blessing and a misfortune to live alone."
