Borrowing a Kiss

The author has something to say: the second update is still made up ~ call it a day, good night

Liang Muqiu always knew that Cen Nan was having a bad time abroad.

Being forced to break up with him, taking care of dying relatives while finishing school, and finally sending away my grandma abroad, no matter how you think about it, this is not a good life.

But before he opened Gu Jinxiu's letter, he never thought it would be so bad.

So much so that he felt that it was not a letter, but a sharp blade, which cut his throat and went all the way down, piercing through his heart, bleeding out gurgling blood.

In the letter, Gu Jinxiu told him everything that happened after Cen Nan went abroad in a very calm tone.

Ever since he landed in the United States, Cen Nan had been monitored by people sent by his parents. The so-called transfer to a foreign country was just a roundabout measure taken by his parents after they knew their son had fallen in love with a man.

In the beginning, his parents didn't take Cen Nan's relationship seriously. The young people are so fresh, and the relationship will fade after a long time apart.

But in the blink of an eye half a year later, Cen Yuanxiao discovered that his son not only had no intention of cooling off, but was still planning to bring his young lover in China to marry abroad.

absurd.

They sent him abroad to break his thoughts, but fortunately, he went further and further on the road paved by his parents, and never looked back.

In the end, they asked Cen Nan to choose whether he wanted this family, his future prosperity, or Liang Muqiu.

Cen Nan chose Liang Muqiu.

"...I have been very disappointed with him so far, he is really not as weak and sentimental as my son and Cen Yuanxiao's, and it is difficult to achieve great things.

But he should be a good lover to you.

I don't know how you get along and how you are together, but if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I don't believe my son would be so crazy because of someone.

We feel that this kind of madness is wrong, just a short-lived novelty, just correct it.

His father and I sent Cen Nan to a sanitarium with a church background, thinking that we could get a son back on track, but it failed in the end.

I picked him up before Thanksgiving and tried to have a good talk with him one last time, but instead he shoved the paring knife into his father's hand.

I still remember that day.I gave birth to him and I thought I loved him, but how did we get to this point and how did he end up with us?

I still remember him saying to me, let's be cruel and kill him, otherwise he will come back to you as long as he has breath.

Then I really spent a new year with him in the hospital.

His father stabbed the fruit knife sideways, but if it was deeper, it would hurt the internal organs, and there would be no Cen Nan in the world.

The last bit of affection he had for us was probably lying to the police that he was injured accidentally. "

After writing this, Gu Jinxiu's mood was probably unstable, and the words she wrote were shaking a little.

But she is so calm and calm that no one can guess her thoughts from the words.

She wrote, "Actually at that time I hated you very much, Liang Muqiu, I felt that you took my son away, without you, maybe none of this would have happened.

But after so many years, Cen Nan's grandmother passed away, and he also finished his studies, worked well, and treated people well.He is almost exactly the same as I once expected, except that he still loves you.

I'm really surprised, but I have to admit, you won. "

After reading this, Liang Muqiu almost couldn't help tearing up the letter.

you win.

All the pain he and Cen Nan suffered, on this letter paper, turned into three words, "You won".

His lover, his Cen Nan, seemed to be taken as a prize.

Thin and unworthy of mentioning.

He bit his lips tightly, because his face was so distorted that blood was bleeding from his lips.

Ruan Zhuxian looked at it in shock.

She is too familiar with this expression, she has seen it on Cen Nan's face many times over the years.

She wanted to speak but didn't dare to speak, so she could only pinch the coffee cup helplessly, but didn't drink it, just rubbed the rim anxiously.

After a while, she heard Liang Muqiu ask, "Where is the nursing home mentioned in this letter?"

Her heart tightened, and she looked up, just in time Liang Muqiu was also looking over, the moment their eyes collided, she almost thought that the person sitting opposite was Cen Nan, full of oppression and coldness, like she had seen countless times.

Ruan Zhuxian sighed, "You guessed it yourself, even in foreign countries, there are some shady places, especially his parents are powerful and powerful, and they can eat everywhere. It is said that it is a sanatorium with a church background, but in fact..." She said It's also a bit unbearable to come here. She was studying in another school at that time, and she didn't know what happened to Cen Nan. "I don't know what he went through. When I saw him again, I only thought he was very thin and depressed. He talked to me a bit later, saying that there was more..." She thought about her choice of words, trying not to make Liang Muqiu too painful, "mental torture."

Liang Muqiu couldn't tell how he felt.

Of course he knew that it was not a good place, but how bad it would be if he used the word torture.

He hadn't finished reading the letter yet, but his internal organs were already aching. It was indeed winter, and it was so cold that even his heart seemed to be frozen.

He turned his face away, instead of looking at Ruan Zhuxian, he bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from making a sound.

When he left home an hour ago, he kissed Cen Nan goodbye. Cen Nan went to the law firm, and he came to see Ruan Zhuxian.

At that time, he never thought that he would be in such a mess now.

He thought these seven years were enough to make his heart ache.

He thought that in Yulan's apartment, he and Cen Nan had a frank meeting, and there would be no pain in the future.

But it turned out that the most painful thing was waiting for him here.

He looked at the sunlight outside the window, which was so dazzling that it hurt his eyes.This is probably the only thing left when a person grows up. Even when he collapses like this, he is calmer than when he was 20 years old.

"His parents are so stupid," he said coldly without looking at Ruan Zhuxian, "Why should they make things difficult for Cen Nan, they should come to me, threaten me, tell me Cen Nan's plight and pain, and I will break up with Cen Nan no matter how reluctant I am. "

Because he couldn't bear Cen Nan's pain.

Just like Cen Nan hated him.

He loves Cen Nan so much, even when Cen Nan frowns, he feels distressed. When he was 20 years old, he could die for Cen Nan.

But the person he cherished the most was trampled into the mud like this, and became covered in dirt.

Liang Muqiu looked out the window with a numb expression, still holding the letter in his hand, he thought to himself, if he had to be there, he might lose his mind and grab a fruit knife and stab Cen Nan's father in the heart.

It's a pity he's not here.

Ruan Zhuxian didn't know how to respond to this sentence, she had loved and broken up before, but she had never been hurt like Liang Muqiu and Cen Nan.

In fact, in the past six years, when she returned to China to visit her relatives, she visited Liang Muqiu several times, all for Cen Nan.

When she returned to the United States, she would describe Liang Muqiu's current situation to Cen Nan in detail, and tell him all the news he inquired about.

Cen Nan listened carefully to every word, with a momentary satisfaction on his face, as if he had glimpsed Liang Muqiu's life from the details, but then there was endless indifference and numbness.

She looked at the other side, and felt that Cen Nan was a little pitiful.

She used to think that Cen Nan was very powerful, smart and calm, strong and iron-blooded, he was the kind of person who would stand on his own even when the sky fell.

But when she looked at Cen Nan at that time, she felt that he was like a displaced beast.

Because there are only two people who love him in this world, one is about to die, and the other has already left.

He has nowhere to go.

Liang Muqiu didn't know how long it took before he held up his breath and continued to watch Gu Jinxiu's next words.

However, Gu Jinxiu probably had nothing to say to him, and just a few lines explained Cen Nan's remaining years.

"Probably in the second or third year in the United States, he had a psychological problem. I knew about it relatively late. He was actively treating him, and he didn't allow himself to wallow in grief. He was afraid of going back to see you. Sometimes, you thought he was a patient, and he wanted to be a normal person in front of you, not a gloomy lunatic. This treatment continued until after his grandmother died.

You see, you have really changed my son beyond recognition. I thought he would always be proud and confident, but he is also afraid that people will not want him.

Cen Yuanxiao, I, Cen Nan, and you cannot reconcile.I know very well that Cen Nan will not look back, and he will not need us anymore, but his father and I are only his son, and please hand over another letter to Cen Nan, which explains our property arrangements. Our family business will still belong to him after a hundred years, and his name will always be on the will.

There's only so much we can give him.

Liang Muqiu, I know that I am an enemy, not to mention a relationship, but at this time, I don't want to say any more emotional words.

It's me and Cen Nan's father who's sorry for you, Cen Nan didn't do anything wrong, he has always loved you.

If it wasn't for his grandma's accident, he would have already won. He would rather die than bow his head while lying in the hospital, and there is nothing we can do.But life is so impermanent, and his grandma's accident made us hold him for so many years.

So please don't abandon him.

Even if one day you no longer love him and are tired of him, please give him a way out, because he has nothing but you.

That is why I am writing this letter.

Thank you for still being here. "

Even at the end of the letter, Gu Jinxiu was polite and courteous to a person she hated. She confessed her arrangement to Cen Nan calmly and coldly, as if she was dealing with business, without any personal feelings involved.

She is like a boss, a general giving orders, but she is not like a mother.

Cen Nan's father, on the other hand, was so stingy that he didn't show up from the beginning to the end, as if he used his actions to show that he and Cen Nan had broken up.

Liang Muqiu tore up the letter after reading it.

There was no special expression on his face when he tore it, but he tore the letter into pieces in his hands, as if he was going to crush someone's bones to ashes.

Fragments splashed on the table, and a few drifted into the glass.

The coffee in the cup was already cold, and the chocolate scent of Mocha had condensed in the winter temperature, but the sunlight was just right outside the window.

And his lover, who was still handling official business in the law firm, was waiting for him to come back and have dinner together.
