Ten years is extremely long for many people, whether it is for an individual, a city, or even a country.
This weekend is no different from the past, the faint morning light sprinkles in the living room from the floor-to-ceiling windows, splashing gold all over the floor.Zhou Xu has been an old teacher for more than ten years, and now he is in his thirties. Although there is no sorrow brought by memories on his face, it also has the maturity and stability of a middle-aged man.
According to his past habits, Zhou Xu would wake up later on rare Sundays, but today he still got up early, turned on the TV to watch the morning news after cooking, and lowered his voice to wait for his wife to wake up.
"Aren't you on vacation? Why do you get up so early?" When Xiao Jiang got up, the millet porridge that Zhou Xu had cooked and served had just become warm. She looked at the man sitting upright in a daze, and asked.
Xiao Jiang is now a leading lawyer, capable and beautiful. Now she has set up a firm by herself, and her career is on the rise. Compared with Zhou Xu, who is a teacher, she doesn't know where she is going.
The two have been married for eight years, and they are familiar with each other like left and right hands.Seeing Zhou Xu's expression, Xiao Jiang knew that he had something to say.
"Today is our wedding anniversary." Zhou Xu didn't hold back, and said honestly.
wedding anniversary?Xiao Jiang suddenly realized that she was so busy recently that she even forgot her wedding anniversary. Fortunately, her husband didn't care about it. She coughed dryly and couldn't do anything to beg for forgiveness. Day, I... I can move things around today and let's go out and have a good meal."
Zhou Xu shook his head: "No need, I want to go to the prison to see... that person."
He didn't mention his name, but Xiao Jiang froze, and immediately understood who 'that person' was.
"Why did you come up with a whim?" Xiao Jiang subconsciously wanted to refute Zhou Xu's proposal, but swallowed the words silently. In this family, Xiao Jiang is the one who earns the most money, and it seems that she is the one who makes the decisions. Xu is like a ball of cotton without temper, tolerant of Xiao Jiang's sharpness and temper, but Zhou Xu, who is as gentle as water, eats Xiao Jiang to death. Once Zhou Xu really makes a decision, no one can help him. Change.
"I've been running away for ten years, and it's time to face it." Zhou Xu smiled bitterly. Those few short months almost ruined his life, and made him spend all his time in those few months. in the shadows.
Ten years ago, Zhou Xu was rescued from hell by his family through untold hardships, but at that time Zhou Xu had been completely destroyed, not to mention returning to the way it was before, even being an independent and autonomous person is difficult. difficulty.
Being trained as a "dog" is not easy, but it is much easier than letting a dog be a human.As for the process of reshaping his personality, Zhou's parents turned to a professional psychiatrist to help Zhou Xu recover very slowly.
Xiao Jiang was already so angry that Zhou Xu left without saying goodbye for half a year, and there was no news at all. She was thinking of a showdown as soon as Zhou Xu came back, breaking up directly and adding revenge, but she didn't expect that there was something else hidden.
The two have been in love since they were in college. It's not a vigorous love, but it's a long-lasting relationship. The relationship is not only passionate, but also as deep as relatives. What's more, the two have reached the point where they are talking about marriage. the point.
After knowing the whole story, Xiao Jiang's anger disappeared, leaving only distress and anger towards the culprit.The Xiao family is not a wealthy family, but a well-off family. There is only one daughter in the family, and she is also pampered like a princess. She has raised a character that is proud but not arrogant, kind but not weak.
After the incident happened, the Xiao family immediately decided to break off the engagement for their daughter - anyway, it was only an engagement, not a marriage, so there was no need to worry about their daughter's reputation, not to mention that Zhou Xu's situation and future were uncertain.
To put it bluntly, after the initial panic, Xiao Jiang became stronger and had a showdown with his family, giving this relationship a chance.
Zhou Xu was in a daze at the time and didn't know the situation of the family war, but after getting married, Zhou's parents treated Xiao Jiang better, which is enough to prove how much pressure she was under at that time.
"Are you sure you can face him now?" Xiao Jiang changed his sitting position and sat down with Zhou Xu in a dignified manner, but the pajamas he was wearing were a bit inconsistent, "What if we meet at that time and you are stimulated? You can't be too stimulated."
Without direct objection at the top of his voice, Xiao Jiang calmly pointed out the problem and asked Zhou Xu how to solve it.
"I've been hiding in the turtle shell for ten years, it's been long enough." Zhou Xu looked at the woman across from him softly, feeling warm in his heart. He was grateful to Xiao Jiang for his perseverance, and he also loved the woman in front of him deeply. Gather up the courage to face the past, not only for yourself, but also to give Xiao Jiang an explanation.
As a teacher, he knows too many principles, and every time he teaches students to say something casually, he only knows how difficult those decisions are when he is faced with them, but no matter how difficult they are, he must go Do, the carrion wound can only be restored if it is torn open again.
Xiao Jiang asked a few more questions based on Zhou Xu's situation. After getting the answer, she let out a long sigh of relief and fell down on the sofa: "Since you have thought it all over, go ahead and do it. I will go with you. "
After all, she was still a little worried.
Zhou Xu didn't object, and he was already very satisfied with the result.The only thing he worries about now is whether he will go too far in the face of the nightmare of the past ten years and make the other party look down on him.
Now that he has made a decision, Xiao Jiang has always acted vigorously. After washing up and having breakfast, he drove Zhou Xu to the prison in his car.
As a well-known legal person, although Xiao Jiang herself specializes in civil law, she also has criminal law lawyers under her command. She is already very familiar with the prison guards, and she will more or less save face.
Zhou Xu followed Xiao Jiang, watching her chatting and laughing happily with others, the uneasiness in his heart gradually faded away, and he was full of courage again.
Due to the balance of forces among all parties, Si Xiangwen, who was supposed to be executed immediately, was only sentenced to life without probation.While Zhou Xu was trying to get out of the shadows of the past, Si Xiangwen was also looking back on his arrogant and despicable life in prison.
Zhou Xu didn't know if this person had ever repented of his past actions, but judging from the few months he and Si Xiangwen had spent together, how could a person who was so arrogant to the point of arrogance reflect on his mistakes?
So time is a very magical thing.
Zhou Xu looked at the person coming from a distance, he thought he would be very excited, in pain, and even frightened, even crying, but when he really saw this person, Zhou Xu could only feel his heart full of joy. calm.
In the last second, he was sure that Si Xiangwen would not change much, but when he saw the real person, that person had become so that no one who knew him would believe that it was Si Xiangwen.
Si Xiangwen is also about forty years old, but his hair is gray like an old man in his 60s and [-]s. The criss-crossing wrinkles deeply sculpt the time of the past ten years, and his eyes that used to be deep have become cloudy, slightly blurred. His stooped body is no different from any old man on the street.
The dead eyes suddenly lit up when they saw Zhou Xu, like a jackal who had been hungry for hundreds of years and suddenly saw the bones.
Zhou Xu watched Si Xiangwen approaching step by step, seeing the surprise and surprise in his eyes, he stared at Zhou Xu's face, looked greedily from top to bottom, and stripped off the person's clothes with his eyes. clean up.
"Sit down." The prison guard is a young man. He hasn't experienced the turmoil ten years ago, and he doesn't know the terrible past of the criminals he despises. You're welcome, "Someone is coming to see you, be honest."
Xiao Jiang blocked Si Xiangwen's gaze as if nothing had happened, and smiled at the little prison guard: "Thank you, comrade, let's talk alone, and call you when we finish talking."
The little prison guard responded bluntly. He had one appearance when facing criminals, and another gentle appearance when facing ordinary people: "Okay, Sister Xiao, call me if you have something to do."
With the departure of the prison guards, in this specially arranged reception room, only the parties from that year - or the perpetrator and the victim - remained.
"Xiao Xu." Si Xiangwen noticed the domineering Xiao Jiang, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He raised his handcuffed hands, wanting to touch Zhou Xu.
"Mr. Si, my name is Zhou Xu." Zhou Xu calmly turned around and said to Xiao Jiang, "Xiao Jiang, I'll talk to him alone, can you go out first?"
Although it was a gentle question, there was a plea in the words.Xiao Jiang stood there for a long while, then walked out with a cold snort, the sound of clattering high heels fading away.
The first meeting after ten years was also the last time Zhou Xu saw Si Xiangwen in his lifetime. Only he and Si Xiangwen knew what he said.
After doing everything, Zhou Xu walked out of the prison, and the door behind him closed slowly with a dull sound. He will never set foot here again, and he will never stop here again.
Zhou Xu touched the jade pendant on his neck unconsciously with his hands, the cold touch calmed his restlessness, and the anger caused by Si Xiangwen's words also disappeared.
"It was you who betrayed me, and I used some small means to punish you."
"If you had accepted my pursuit back then, would our ending have been different?"
"That woman is your wife? How dare you marry a wife?!"
An instigator of all things, a perpetrator, a crime, smuggling|smuggling|arms|arms|fires, collusion between government and businessmen, a sinner who committed a series of evils, at that moment he seemed like a victim.
Zhou Xu just felt disgusted.
He originally wanted to meet Si Xiangwen, at least to let himself understand why he suffered such an innocent disaster, why him?
In the first few years of the ten years, he dared not fall asleep day and night, did not dare to walk at night, did not dare to stay away from the crowd but did not dare to approach anyone... He just wanted to understand what he had done wrong, and then Protect yourself and those you care about as much as possible.
But now he realized that there was no reason, it was just bad luck.
He didn't do anything wrong, and he didn't need to make any changes. He was as ordinary as everyone in the world, but he was too unfortunate to encounter these things.
After figuring everything out, Zhou Xu faced the bright sunshine everywhere, not caring about the too dazzling light, and stubbornly chased after the sun.
"boarding."
His sun has come.Zhou Xu sat in the co-pilot with a smile, looking at Xiao Jiang's displeased expression.
Looking at the road ahead, Xiao Jiang said, "Today I originally asked the Miao family, the richest man, to discuss company law, but now I have pushed... I heard that their eldest son was also harmed by Si Xiangwen before. I gave birth to a young son through artificial insemination a few years ago..."
"Let's go to the vegetable market first to buy vegetables. You have been so busy recently that you don't have time to eat properly. I'll make you something delicious." Zhou Xu also said with a smile.
"Okay." Xiao Jiang nodded.
"We are not too old, do you think we still want to have children? You are considered an older mother now." Zhou Xu changed the subject again, and when his nightmare left, he seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden, relaxed, Even I don't know what I'm talking about, "You are the busiest time now, and you are afraid of delaying your pregnancy, if you don't mind, we can go to the orphanage to adopt a child, and then send my dad to my jade Avalokitesvara left him as a family heirloom..."
Xiao Jiang didn't think about these questions either, she was in a daze for a moment, looked at Zhou Xu's relaxed face, and laughed too.
The author has something to say: I originally wanted to write an episode about "Reshaping Personality", but in the end I still wanted to give Zhou Xu a gentle and happy ending. If you are interested in reshaping your personality, go and watch "Rebirth Through Hell" ...
I hope there will be no little angels who feel that Zhou Xu is weird with women. Zhou Xu is just a victim. He is entitled to happiness. Thank you little angels for your understanding
