remarriage [rebirth]

Gao Qiang’s gift was also sent within an hour of receiving the severed hand. It was a photo album, which was full of photos of them. Even from the time when Gao Qiang and Gao Jian were young, Gao Qiang carefully cared for them one by one. Put it well and hang it in a thick photo album.

Gao Jian sat on the sofa and flipped through the photo albums one by one. Those simple photos took him through time and space like a time machine, and brought him back to the time when he was a child. Sisters who are connected by blood, they have shared the years with each other for so long, and the traces of the years can be clearly found in every photo.

Gao Jian looked at it for a long time, pondered for a long time, and turned into a fossil and buried it deeply in the sofa. Unlike him who was furious before, Gao Jian at this moment is immersed in the prehistoric years, savoring the things he has gained or lost. s things.

Lu Jiawen and Gao Ming got together and asked, "What is your father looking at?"

"It's a gift from my little aunt." Gao Ming said, "It's a family photo album."

"Have you contacted your little aunt?"

"Well, she called just now and said—"

Gao Jian suddenly put down the photo album, stood up, his muscles tense together, like a cheetah ready to go, he picked up the phone and waited for it to be connected, then hurriedly said: "Find me now!" Gao Qiang."

"Dad?" Gao Ming called out worriedly.

Gao Jian asked: "Did she say where she was when she called?"

"No."

"Why didn't you call me to answer the phone?"

"Little aunt said no—"

Gao Jian didn't say a word, his right eyelid kept twitching, pacing back and forth in the living room, looking up at the wall clock from time to time, half an hour later, the phone rang, Gao Jian answered the phone, and the other end said to find Gao Jian. It's just that Gao Qiang locked herself in a room, and the shopkeeper couldn't get in.

Gao Jian ordered: "Find a way to rush in and bring Gao Qiang back!"

Gao Ming's heartbeat also started to speed up. He vaguely felt that he had done something wrong. There seemed to be some kind of meaning in the little aunt's words, but he was too young and inexperienced to understand the meaning of her words.

"Little aunt..." Gao Ming whispered, Lu Jiawen was more mature than Gao Ming, he immediately understood the current situation, and gently hugged Gao Ming in his arms, Lu Jiawen gently comforted Gao Ming's restless Emotions, "It will be fine, Mingming, don't think about it."

"Smell..." Gao Ming tightly gripped Lu Jiawen's clothes, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, his heart stretched into a straight line, and it would vibrate violently with a slight movement, "I'm afraid."

Lu Jiawen gritted his teeth and hugged Gao Ming tightly, like little beasts comforting each other in the dark night, desperately absorbing the warmth from each other.

There was no news of Gao Qiang for the time being, so Gao Ming was driven to the second floor to rest by Gao Jian.

When the New Year's Eve is approaching, Lu Jiawen and Gao Mingwo watched the local live broadcast of Nandu in the small room on the second floor. Many people gathered under the big clock in the city center, crowded together in one place, holding fluorescent sticks, calling loudly with.Everyone has different high hopes for the New Year. In the hearts of Nandu people, the sound of the bell every year on the square in front of the Civic Center seems to be a harbinger of the past and the future.

They couldn't make it to the scene, so they could only watch the bell ringing on live TV at home.

Lu Jiawen held Gao Ming in his arms, and Gao Ming leaned on Lu Jiawen's shoulder, quietly counting down to the sound, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one...

"Happy New Year!!"

The crowd on the TV was all boiling. In the lively atmosphere, Lu Jiawen took out a small box and handed it to Gao Ming, "Happy New Year."

"Gift?" Gao Ming looked at the thing in Lu Jiawen's hand unexpectedly, and when he opened it, it was a bird made of crystal. The bird spread its wings and flew high in the sky, its head held high was full of hope. Lu Jiawen said, "Ming Ming, Happy New Year."

Gao Ming held the little bird tightly, and said with a smile, "Thank you." He stroked the little bird lovingly, his big eyes sparkling, "I also have a New Year's gift for you."

Lu Jiawen's heart tightened. According to the old habits, Gao Ming's style is likely to be sent to the five-year senior high school entrance examination and three-year simulation... Lu Jiawen's mouth twitched, and he asked tentatively: "What type? Can you tell me a little bit about it?" ?"

Gao Ming laughed softly, took out a beautifully packaged box from the bedside cabinet, "Open it and have a look."

Lu Jiawen half-nervously and half-excitedly opened the box, took a look, inside was a sneaker box, Nike, Lu Jiawen was startled, opened the lid, and found a pair of dark blue running shoes.

"Do you like it?" Gao Ming asked cautiously.

"I like..." These shoes Lu Jiawen remembers, when he and Gao Ming were shopping outside that day, he looked at them a few more times. At that time, he had no money to buy them, so he gave up. After returning home, he thought about it for a few days but soon lost Forget it, he didn't expect Gao Ming to still remember it.

Gao Ming suddenly came up and kissed Lu Jiawen's forehead lightly: "Wen Wen, Happy New Year."

Lu Jiawen was stunned, hugged the shoe box and suddenly plunged into the soft quilt of the bed, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssesses ---"

Gao Ming laughed, and sat on the edge of the bed, watching Lu Jiawen rolling in the sheets, contentedly enjoying the tenderness and happiness this small world brought him.

***

Gao Qiang committed suicide and died alone in a small room on the island.

According to the first person who found his body, she died quietly and peacefully, reclining in a couch with a large soft cloak over her knees.Facing the wide open window, the rays of the morning sun hit her face, reflecting a hazy trace, as soft and beautiful as an oil painting.The moment she opened the door, she thought Gao Qiang was resting.

The body was brought back to her home two days later, and Gao Jian held a sensational funeral for her after the year. Gao Qiang's death, Gao Jian kept secret from the outside world, but he didn't say it carefully, but it attracted a lot of rumors from the outside world.Gao Qiang's youngest daughter, Gao Yuqin, was taken to Gao Ming's home, and a nanny was hired to take care of her.

Gao Qiang's death pushed Gao Jian to a dead end. Gao Jian was not the kind of person who valued friendship. In his eyes, relatives were far less important than interests. From the way he raised Gao Ming, it can be seen that he was raising A successor to a career, rather than raising a son, Gao Ming's mental health is not important, what matters is that Gao Ming has the ability to inherit the Gao family's career.

However, the photo album that Gao Qiang gave him awakened a bit of conscience and tenderness in Gao Jian's heart. He was too irritable and radical when dealing with Chen Kangyong. Kang Yong was forced to die, and Gao Qiang would not be hurt so much.

The guilt in his heart turned into the motivation of hatred, and the person Gao Jian wanted to take revenge would never escape easily.

Gao Qiang's death also cast a great shadow on Gao Ming. After learning of Gao Qiang's death, Gao Ming stayed in the room for a long time. motionless.

When he thought about getting along with Gao Qiang, his heart was full of regrets. If he had treated Gao Qiang better at the beginning, would he not be so regretful... He actually likes Gao Qiang, a little aunt, and Gao Qiang treats him well. Very good, very good, but the problem is, just as Gao Qiang looks at Gao Ming, Gao Ming really doesn't know how to get along with Gao Qiang, Gao Qiang brings him no less pressure than Gao Jian, he looks at Gao Qiang as if To a female version of Gao Jian.

Who is to blame for Gao Qiang's death?Gao Ming couldn't figure this out, so he kept thinking about it.

Blame Chen Kangyong for being ruthless?Blame her for falling in love with someone she shouldn't love?Who is to blame...

Gao Ming's mind was full of thoughts about what Gao Qiang told him on the phone. His experience made him unable to understand what Gao Qiang said very well. Feelings, love, family affection, friendship... These things are all the same to him, they are all likes.

Can't we be together if we like?Will we be afraid of each other if we are together?

Gao Ming couldn't figure it out.

"Tu Tut Tuk" came the sound from the window, Gao Ming looked up, Lu Jiawen was dancing towards Gao Ming with his face against the window glass, Gao Ming was startled, jumped out of bed, opened the window, and pulled Lu Jiawen in : "Wen Wen, what are you doing? It's too dangerous."

"You've been ignoring me!" Lu Jiawen said unhappily, and jumped in from the window. After landing, he held down Gao Ming and looked carefully, "Why have you stayed in the room all this time? Did you have a good meal? "

"Have a good meal." Gao Ming nodded, "I don't understand what little aunt said to me."

"What?"

"It's easy to fall in love and difficult to stay together." Gao Ming said, "She said that I should consider whether I can stay together for a lifetime, whether I can live a lifetime."

Lu Jiawen: "..." Thinking of their previous life, Lu Jiawen panicked, "Don't think about it, you are still young, you will know when you meet someone you like in the future."

"I have someone I like." Gao Ming looked at Lu Jiawen seriously, "I also want to spend the rest of my life with him."

Lu Jiawen looked at Gao Ming in a daze, "What did you say?"

Gao Ming shook his head, "Wait until I'm older." He gritted his teeth, calming down the turbulent emotion in his chest, "I'll understand when I'm older. Some things shouldn't be said in advance now. "

Lu Jiawen couldn't understand what Gao Ming was talking about, and his mind was full of thoughts about the person Gao Ming said he likes and wants to spend his whole life with, who is it?Could it be him?

Lu Jiawen sat down on the bed and said, "I also have someone I like, and I also have someone I want to spend my whole life with."

Gao Ming: "..." He smiled, and pulled Lu Jiawen up, "Let's go, go down and have something to eat, I'm hungry."

"Okay." Lu Jiawen felt sorry for Gao Ming, so he jumped up from the bed, "Let's go! Auntie Song made delicious fish soup for you to nourish your body!"

"Yes." Gao Ming took Lu Jiawen's hand, "Let's go down together."
