Subduing Dragon
Chapter 21: Chasing the Wind
Lu Sheng had been homeless for more than a week, and only today he mustered up the courage to go home.He opened the door and entered the room and looked around, but he didn't see any flaws, and there was indeed no one hiding in the closet.So I made a pot of hot tea for Irene, and the two sat and chatted for a while.After Irene left happily, Lu Sheng took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves, and began to tidy up the room.As soon as he bent down to pick up a shirt from the ground, he heard the door knocking intermittently, as if the outsiders were afraid of frightening him, the insider.
This is not Irene's door-knocking style. As for Long Xiang——Long Xiang probably doesn't know what knocking is.Turning to the door with his shirt in his hand, he raised his heart and asked in surprise and vigilance: "Who?"
There was a low response from outside the door, "Big brother, it's me."
Lu Sheng froze for a moment, and when he regained consciousness, he found that he had already opened the door and stood at the door.Looking down at the person coming in front of the door, he looked at Yaya for more than half a minute without saying a word.Yaya hangs her head at a loss, her lips are bright red, because she bit her teeth hard when she went upstairs.The rich lady in the convertible sports car is so delicate and beautiful, she also wants to add some blood to herself.
As if he finally understood Yaya, Lu Sheng grabbed her arm, dragged her into the room, and immediately asked, "Are you sick?"
Yaya shook her head in a panic, "No, I'm not sick."
"Then how did you become so thin?"
Yaya raised her hand and touched her shoulder and arm, with a childish and dazed look on her face.She was indeed thinner, her previously plump face now showed the contours of her cheekbones, her blush cheeks with a layer of fine down had faded, and her skin had become a yellow and thin layer.A cyan satin cheongsam hangs straight down, and the existence of the inner body cannot be seen.In summer, her cheongsam was still long-sleeved, and she wore the narrow sleeves loosely, with the cuffs protruding from her wrists, and around her wrists was a jadeite bracelet.The bracelet was green and thick, as if it was about to break her thin bones.Lu Sheng looked at her, and the more he looked at her, the more angry he became, he was almost out of breath, "Tell me, why did you become so thin? Is he still abusing you?"
Yaya didn't know what "abuse" was, so this time she was really at a loss.Looking up at Lu Sheng's face, she didn't pay attention to the other's question, but just smiled slightly out of joy.
In the end, Lu Sheng became even angrier, "Still laughing? Are you stupid?"
Yaya stopped laughing immediately, playing with the small leather bag with both hands, she mumbled and shook her head, "I'm not stupid."
Lu Sheng didn't listen to her, first grabbed her purse and put it on the coffee table, then took her hand, and rolled the sleeve to the elbow.This slender arm was clean and white. He took her other hand and continued to check. This time he found a red and purple bruise on the other's arm.Yaya wanted to retract her hand uneasily, but he let her retract, and sat down on the sofa by himself.
Yaya put her hands behind her back, lowered her head and murmured, "Big Brother, he asked me to come and find you and go home."
Lu Sheng clasped his hands together, not allowing himself to lose his temper with Ya Ya, and only asked, "Will you let me go back?"
Immediately beyond his expectation, Yaya shook her head hesitantly. "I don't know..." She said in a low voice, "He has a good heart, but...anyway...you will suffer if you follow him."
Lu Sheng let out a heavy breath, then said, "Don't go with him."
Yaya stood upright like a wooden sculpture of clay, knowing in her heart that there are some women in this world who can do things that are "not enough", but those women are not from the same world as her.So the three words "no more" that the big brother said, no matter how you think about it, it is an angry statement.It sounds good, but it can't be taken seriously.
At this time, Lu Sheng said again, "Being a widow is better than following him! A widow sits at home with the door closed, at least she won't be beaten if anyone wants to beat her! When I opened the door just now, I dare not recognize you. Big, I've never seen you so skinny!"
After saying this, he suddenly got up and walked into the bedroom.Yaya looked back at him and saw him rummaging through the chest of drawers at the end of the bed.Before she could understand, he had already returned to the living room holding a small paper list.
"That year, I asked Long Xiang for [-] yuan. This year, I spent some on my own, and now I will give you [-] yuan. Remember, this is called a check. You don't need to say anything when you get it to the bank, and you can get the money directly. .You take it away, this is your body. With this money, you can have food to live alone, remember?"
Yaya looked at the check that Lu Sheng handed to her, tears welled up in her big dry eyes.Dodging and taking a step back, she said in a crying voice: "Big brother, I don't want it. I'm not afraid of him, I can bear it. When he loses his temper, I avoid him. Isn't that how we came here when we were young? Can I deal with him."
Lu Sheng slapped the check on the coffee table, "Since childhood? It was you and me! Can you deal with him? He is like a mad dog. You are timid, soft-tempered, and stupid. Can you deal with him? I see him Now you're so fat, how about you? You're so skinny! And that kick—his kick almost killed you that day, it's a thing that kills when it goes mad, Are you still reluctant to leave him?"
Yaya wanted to cry at first, but now that she heard Lu Sheng's aggressive accusations, she couldn't help sobbing, she really cried.
"Big brother..." She wiped her tears with the back of her hand, wiped her tears and snot, "I've already been like this... all my life..."
She didn't wail, but she was out of breath from crying, with faint tendons popping out of her forehead, she endured and endured it, it was unbearable.A big hand tugged at her wrist, and a wet towel was patted on her face.Lu Sheng wiped away her tears with all his might.She didn't hide, out of nature, she was also greedy for this limited warmth.Long Xiang also treated her kindly sometimes, but that kindness didn't seem to warm her up, it was more like burning her.
After Lu Sheng wiped her face, he smoothed her wet bangs with his fingers.Looking from her eyebrows to her ear temples, he found that Yaya was still wearing the pair of diamond earrings he bought for her back then.Holding the big towel in his hand, he suddenly opened his arms and hugged Yaya into his arms.In fact, they were originally a couple of lovers, but how did they get to where they are today?Turning his head and sticking his lips to Yaya's hair, he held his breath, opened his eyes wide and looked out the window, he could see thousands of miles away.Seeing the mighty wind blowing in front of his eyes, drying his tears and blood.
"Yaya," he said in a low voice with a hoarse voice, "remember, as long as I live, I will always protect you. No matter you are 20, 30, 40 or 50, when you come, I will protect you forever." It's time."
Slowly tightening his arms tightly, he seemed to want to strangle the thin bones in his arms, "I won't leave you to him anymore. It doesn't matter if you don't want to leave him now, as long as you know that you are out of the dragon At the door of the house, there is still a big brother to go to, that's all."
Yaya buried her face in his chest without saying a word.At this moment, she didn't argue or think about anything, her body and mind were still in the warm darkness, she sank in the fresh smell, into a chaotic world without light or sound.There, she is not afraid.
She didn't move, and Lu Sheng didn't speak anymore.Gently stroking Yaya's back one after another, he thought they could actually stand like this forever.First, there are two trees that grow together, and then there are two rocks after the vicissitudes of life.Haven't they been like this for many years before?Isn't there at most only a curtain between them?
The life of the chaotic world is half an hour. After half an hour, Yaya raises her head and the world is annihilated.
"I'm leaving." She told Lu Sheng, her cheeks and eyelids were red, "Mother Chen's son is still in the car downstairs, he sent me to find you."
Lu Sheng let go of his arm, and said in a low voice, "That kid Chen Youqing is not strict, don't trust him. What do you say to Long Xiang after you go back? If you didn't bring me back, would he lose his temper with you again? "
Yaya smiled, that smile was very serene, so serene that it almost looked old, "I can't."
Then she bent down and picked up the small leather bag, turned around and walked a few steps towards the door.Before leaving the door, he turned around and said, "Big brother, I don't want money, and I have nowhere to hide it. I remember everything you said, and I know how to be careful. I can see him every day, but I I can't see you every day, so take care. I know you're fine, so I won't miss you."
Lu Sheng just nodded, seeing that she was going back into the fire pit.But whether it's better to stay with a tyrant-like husband, or to be alone, he really can't make up his mind for Yaya.Everything has to wait for his revenge to be completed.If Man Shucai is really dead and he is still alive, he will make the decision for Yaya.Whether she is willing or not, he will abduct her out.A little girl with no idea, what does she know about good and bad?
Yaya went back to her home in Tianjin.The journey was too short, it seemed that before she could sit still in the car, Chen Youqing had already opened the door for her from the outside.She didn't really plan to join Lu Sheng, but the silent embrace just now for half an hour was really good.It hasn't been this "good" in a long, long time.Looking up at the scenery in the courtyard, you can also see that the grass is green and the flowers are red, the sky is as blue as the sea, and the sun is shining brightly.Suddenly she stopped and raised her face. She set up the awning with her hands and looked up. Her face was flushed with a damp look. She was like a flower and plant that had absorbed water from the soil, unconsciously recovering a little vitality.
Walking into the living room of the building step by step, Yaya saw Longxiang head-on.Long Xiang was leaning on the sofa smoking a cigarette, and suddenly saw that she came back early, so he quickly got up and greeted her, "Why is your face so red? Are you suffering from heat stroke?"
Yaya saw that the hand he was touching towards her was still holding a cigarette, because she was afraid that he would burn herself badly, so she subconsciously dodged back, "No, I let the sun tan. I just waited until the big brother gone."
Long Xiang immediately regained his spirits, "How is it? Did he kick you out?"
Yaya replied: "No."
Long Xiang then asked again: "Then will he come back?"
Yaya shook her head, "I can say whatever I want, but he just refuses to come back."
Long Xiang put the cigarette between his fingers into his mouth and took a deep puff. As if he didn't understand, he leaned slightly to look into Yaya's eyes, "Don't want to go back? Did you make it clear? Are you stupid? , Didn’t say yes, so he refused to come back?”
Yaya was afraid that he would hold a cigarette or a sharp knife and talk in front of her, so she took another step back calmly, "I made it clear, but big brother is determined this time. I want to persuade you again. He, but he was unhappy if he talked too much, and even opened the door to let me go."
After the words fell, Long Xiang suddenly let out a lion's roar, "Stupid!"
As soon as she closed her eyes, she was sprayed with saliva all over her face by Long Xiang.After Long Xiang roared, he didn't want to finish it, and he stretched out his hand and started pointing at Yaya, "He doesn't listen to me at all, I can't help it; but you've already talked to him, why can't you coax him back?" With his hands on his hips, he took a step closer, and he showed a ferocious face, "I think you did it on purpose! You deliberately messed with me! You deliberately didn't let him come back! He always protected you back then, and you treated him better than me back then. I know you all despise me, let him come back to me, you feel bad——" The hand holding the cigarette waved to Yaya again, "You two are colluding, just want to piss me off alive! I'm dead , you two will be proud!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Yaya turned around and ran away.This time he escaped in time, and only got hit on the shoulder for a while, which was not serious this time.She fled to the second floor without looking back, and stood with her back against the wall, pricking up her ears to listen to the movement downstairs.He lifted it up and hung it on his chest in one breath, until she was sure that Long Xiang would not catch up, and then she exhaled heavily.
Yaya hid for a day, until at night when she had nothing to hide, she met Long again.
It's hot, and the fan doesn't help.Yaya was wearing a singlet and shorts, squatting on the bed with a mat; Long Xiang had just taken a shower and was sitting on the hardwood chair beside the bed to dry off his sweat.Leaning a bottle of foreign wine on his snow-white lap, he held the slender neck of the bottle, and every once in a while he would take a big gulp from the bottle, and he drank it without food or drink.
After patting a big pillow and straightening it, Yaya said, "Go up to sleep, and I'll turn off the lights. Screens and mosquito coils don't work, if you turn on the lights, you'll attract mosquitos."
Long Xiang obediently got up and climbed onto the bed, there was a rustling sound behind him, it was Yaya who was getting off the bed lightly to turn off the light.After draining the last sip of wine from the bottom of the bottle, he groped in the sudden darkness and put the bottle on the ground.
There was a cool breeze on the back of his back, and it was Yaya who returned to the bed and fanned him from head to toe with a cattail fan.He became more comfortable, and began to murmur, his voice resounded in the quiet night, and it sounded a little immature, like a boy who hadn't fully developed yet.
"Hey, Yaya." With his chin sunk in the big pillow, he looked forward with piercing eyes.Although there is nothing ahead except the bedside railing.
Yaya reached out and touched his spine to see if he was still sweating, "Huh?"
"Lusheng has a new girlfriend."
Yaya was silent for a moment, and then replied: "I saw it today too, a rich lady drove him back in a car."
Long Xiang said again: "He has changed his mind."
Yaya shook her fan slowly, her heart was as quiet as that night, "How can this be called a change of heart?"
Long Xiang propped up his upper body on his elbows, turned his head back to Yaya, "Why isn't that called a change of heart? He doesn't want me, nor you, and being with that outsider every day, isn't that called a change of heart?"
Yaya agreed vaguely, not to argue with him, what he said was what.After slapping him for a while, she tentatively said softly, "But sooner or later, big brother will have a family."
Long Xiang looked back at her again, but this time he didn't speak.
Yaya patted him reassuringly, and whispered again: "Sooner or later, we grow up."
As if he was choking, Long Xiang quickly blinked his eyes at Yaya, then leaned forward and leaned back on the pillow, he stiffened his neck in dissatisfaction, "No!"
Just not!Must not!From childhood to adulthood, he has almost been without a father and no mother, and the only bosom friends are Lusheng and Yaya.Huang Ma only knew how to prepare food and clothing for him, and the rambling was annoying, so Huang Ma was not qualified to join the bosom friend's team.Who is he?He is a dragon!The real dragon is reincarnated!He is such a great person, no one loves him, shouldn't the two of them love and be with him for the rest of their lives?Three people, two men and one woman, of course Yaya should belong to him, as for Lu Sheng—does Lu Sheng have to marry someone else?Will he die if he doesn't get married?Why didn't he make sacrifices for himself?Traitor, traitor with a changed heart!He just didn't avenge his father's death for him, so he wanted to break up with himself, how cruel!How vicious!I don't know the overall situation, so I only care about his old sesame seed and rotten millet!
The more Long Xiang thought about it, the more wronged he became. He was wronged to a certain extent, and he suddenly sat up and put his forehead on Yaya's shoulder.Knowing that he was upset, Yaya skillfully waved the fan for him with one hand, and stroked his back with the other.
After stroking for 10 minutes, she supported Long Xiang to lie down.Pulling a thin blanket to cover him, she leaned aside and patted him lightly, treating him as a burdensome child.Usually, when coaxing him to sleep, she often has no emotion, she just hopes that he will fall asleep, and she will feel better; but today is different, today when she looks at the big moon outside the window, she sees that the moon has become a spirit, and after a while it has turned into a big moon. The big brother's face suddenly turned into the big brother's chest.The hug between the two during the day was a sweet dream for her, enough for her to hide in her heart and recall it for many years.Quietly mouthing silently, she called out three words: "Big! Brother! Brother!"
She hadn't yelled these three words for nearly a year, and now beside Long Xiang, although she only made a mouth shape, she also had a kind of joy and panic as if she violated a taboo and deviant.
Yaya slept with her back facing Longxiang, she curled up and lay on her side, and Longxiang hugged her waist from behind, in exactly the same posture as her.With his forehead against her back, he let out a soft breathing sound, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly.Touching his bare arms around her waist, Yaya sometimes wondered whether she wanted to hate him or not - she had never hated anyone in her life.Don't dare to hate, and won't hate.
A dim blue light gradually lit up outside the window, it was almost dawn.Yaya gently wanted to get up, but suddenly Long Xiang's voice sounded behind her, "What are you going to do?"
This sound came very calmly, making people wonder how long Long Xiang had been waking up secretly.Yaya was taken aback, and then replied in a low voice, "I'm going to pee."
Long Xiang let go of her as soon as he raised his hand, and then sat up himself.After scratching his messy hair, he lowered his head and said, "I dreamed that Lu Sheng was born on the battlefield. He ran behind my back, and you followed him."
Then he stretched his legs out of the bed and searched for slippers all over the floor, "I still have to find him, I must find him back. He is good at everything, but he is small-minded, grudge-like, like a woman, and he has to ask for it." People coax. Just coax me, I'm going to go all out!"
Regardless of whether the content of his words is correct or not, just his serious attitude is already rare.Yaya knelt at the end of the bed and looked at him, suddenly felt that he seemed to be a different person at the moment, unexpectedly very "normal".
Yaya had been the commander's wife in Beijing for two years, she was no longer sociable, and she saw many more people than when she was at home.After seeing many people, she discovered that her husband had an unspeakable strangeness, which could not be summed up simply by saying "bad temper".
Long Xiang began to "coax" Lu Sheng.
Like Irene, he also found that Lusheng was particularly good at disappearing, and he would disappear if he said nothing.But Irene is alone and can only sit on the sidelines, but he is different.With thousands of troops in his hands, he made a long-distance call to Beijing, and he activated his secret service.
Then Lu Sheng discovered that there were dragons everywhere in Tianjin Weili.As long as he places an order, the dragon will definitely descend from the sky.He had a full lunch, so he could go for a walk in the park and meet Long Xiang head to head.He didn't look at Longxiang, just kept moving forward with his head down, while Longxiang was backing towards him, making funny faces at him while backing away.Seeing that he still didn't smile at the end, Long Xiang turned around and took his arm again, wanting to walk side by side with him.Lu Sheng was a big man, and he was a well-dressed big man. Wherever he walked, he would attract people to take a look.He was walking on the grass like a human, but there was a dragon figure scratching his ear and cheek hanging on his arm, which looked strange no matter what.Besides, Long Xiang's hands were dishonest, he was always tentatively trying to touch his head and face, and jumped up and down on him from time to time. Looking sideways, he didn't understand what kind of joke these two young men were making.Lu Sheng was the most shameless person - even a shameless person couldn't stand Long Xiang's tricks, so he felt anxious.
In a hurry, he suppressed his anger, not wanting to waste his energy in conflicting with the dragon again.He knew that Long Xiang was only trying hard at him now, and did not turn his gun on Irene.But sooner or later, he will focus on Irene, because in Long Xiang's mind, Irene is an outsider, and he is a traitor, who was abducted by that outsider.
Long Xiang is very clear about what he wants.When Long Xiang finds out Irene's identity, then his conspiracy will probably be revealed.
So time is limited, he has to speed up, and at the same time...
At the same time, he wondered if he should be perfunctory and perfunctory with Long Xiang, at least not let him blindly add trouble to himself.But turning his head to look at Longxiang's face, he found that he still couldn't do it.His feelings for this man were too strong and clear.When we were on good terms with him, we could work our lives for him; when we were good, we were so good, but now that we are bad, we can't be so bad as an understatement.
Irene knew that Lu Sheng had recently been entangled again by the Dragon Commander.To be honest, she was a little intimidated when dealing with that Commander Long, even though Xiang Long didn't know her at all, and never thought of her.And the reason for this fear, she herself can't explain clearly-Long Xiang's appearance is not hideous and terrible, and she has never heard that he has eaten living people at home.But from the first time she saw him, Irene felt that this man was evil, and he wasn't even very beautiful.
So after thinking about it, she came up with an idea and told Lu Sheng, "Let's leave Tianjin for now!"
Lu Sheng asked back, "Us?"
Seeing that Irene blushed a little, he immediately changed his words and explained: "Have you thought about where to go?"
Irene pressed her lower lip with a finger, in a naive look of deep thought, "Hmm...Shanghai, maybe?"
Lu Sheng smiled, "Can you go on a long trip with me?"
Irene felt that his smile had some meaning, so her rouged face turned even redder, "What do you mean by that?"
The conversation between the two took place in a coffee shop as usual.Hearing Irene's question at this moment, Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then raised his head and called her name: "Irene."
Erin raised her eyebrows at him to show that she was listening.
Lu Sheng seemed to be hesitant, and his voice was low, "I'll give you a ring, okay?"
Irene looked at him expressionlessly, her heart started to beat like a drum.Then she lowered her eyes and stirred the cold coffee with a small spoon. She seemed to ask inadvertently, "Why?"
After the words fell, she raised her eyes, and her eyelashes fluttered.Lu Sheng in front sat with his back straight, looking shy and dignified.The sun slanted on him, and the light blurred the contours of half of his face—without the contours, the pupils became a light brown color, and he became a handsome half-faced man.The clear half is indeed him, and the other half, whose face is vaguely melted in the sunlight.
"Because..." He pondered softly like a sigh, then looked directly into Irene's eyes and smiled.
It was a tacit smile, but Irene would never let him just know it and keep it silent.The fingers holding the small silver spoon trembled a little, she suppressed her violent heartbeat, and looked back firmly, "Why?" Lu Sheng's eyes rolled down, and she avoided Irene's gaze with a smile.He softly whispered: "Because, I love you."
Erin had been waiting for him to say this, and believed that he would say it sooner or later.But when the matter came to an end, she heard it with her own ears, but she was still full of ideas and always felt that it was not enough.Can't tell what's not enough, he is not a romantic and enthusiastic person, and she doesn't expect him to make a touching confession to herself.He said everything that should be said, and he said it very clearly, but she was just lost.Because it is the first time to fall in love with someone like this—the first love is like a thunder that stirs the fire, and at the moment of the explosion, it should shake the world.
A cup of cold coffee was slowly sipped by her, the loss gradually disappeared, and the joy gradually surfaced.Reluctantly raising her eyes to look at Lu Sheng, she began to laugh uncontrollably.
This person who comes and goes without a trace like the wind is hers.She is chasing love and chasing after wind.
In a small jewelry store, Erin picked out a small diamond ring.Although she was not popular at home since she was a child, but because she can compete, she is not lacking in material things.She never lacks jewelry, and she knows that Lu Sheng is in a state of nowhere, so she can't bear to let him spend money.
The ring was bought, and the two were walking on the street in the evening. Irene asked with a smile, "What is this? A token of love?"
Lu Sheng walked beside her slowly. Ever since he said "I love you" during the day, he has been afraid to face her gray eyes.Those gray eyes were too clear, too clear to conceal.He saw the joy in her eyes and heart, the more she was happy, the more he felt his own cruelty and inhumanity.After all, the human heart is still the human heart, no matter how cold and hard it is, it will not turn into stone.So he was timid and guilty, preferring to avoid the other party's gaze.
"I don't know if it is eligible to be counted." Answering Irene's question softly, he heard his own voice was surprisingly gentle, hissing like a snake in the dark, "I have confessed my heart, you I'm not 100% sure yet."
Irene put her hand on his arm, and laughed in the evening wind, "Fool, how do you want to be sure?"
Lu Sheng threw a bombshell, "Maybe, get married?"
As soon as these words came out, Irene immediately turned to look at him.
Lu Sheng glanced at her in panic, then turned his face away.Seeing his shy gesture, Irene suddenly wanted to laugh.At the same time, flowers bloomed in my heart, blooming layer by layer, and instantly burst into splendor all over the sky.Joyfully letting go, she quickly walked a few steps forward, turned her back to Lu Sheng and said, "I won't listen to you anymore."
Lu Sheng stopped and looked at her back. For a moment, he suddenly hoped that Irene would stride forward and never look back.What Erin didn't know, he knew.Irene was walking on the thin ice, and there was a deep pool under the ice. She didn't know it, but he knew it.
However, Eileen turned back.Gently and deftly turning backwards, she turned the skirt into a flower as usual.With her hands drooping and carrying a small leather bag, she straightened her legs, held her head high, and made a very energetic appearance, "I invite you to my aunt's house tonight, how about it?"
Lu Sheng smiled knowingly—Irene had always lived in her aunt's house, and the status of this aunt was no lower than that of her father in her heart.Since her father is not in Tianjin at the moment, she will introduce him to her aunt first.
Irene's aunt—Lu Sheng didn't ask if it was her real aunt—lived in a mansion in the British Concession.The mansion looks quite luxurious from the outside, but the gold and jade are outside, and the inside is ruined.Because my uncle is incompetent, his only strength is reproduction, resulting in a family full of children.The aunt gave birth, and the uncle's concubine also gave birth, and they lived endlessly, eating up the dowry brought by the aunt alive.But my aunt is also an optimist, since the house is already in disarray, she simply does not refuse anyone who comes.Besides, Irene doesn't eat and live for free. Her unique skill is to ask for money from her father, and she asks for one.From her own property, she secretly gave her aunt money for her private house. My aunt was happy, and she lived with confidence.
The aunt who greeted all guests with a smile, saw Lu Sheng, and like all bored women, she immediately became very interested, wishing to ask all the way up to Lu Sheng's eight generations of ancestors.Irene always believed that Lu Sheng, as an orphan, had no ancestors, so she kept changing the topic in the middle, for fear that her aunt would poke his sore spot.After dinner, Lusheng said his goodbyes and left. When Auntie entered Irene's room, the smile on her face disappeared.
She asked Irene: "Where did you know this Mr. Bai? I haven't heard you mention it before."
Irene sat on the edge of the bed, lifted her skirt and raised her thighs, and carefully took off her stockings, "We have known each other for a long time, but it turned out to be just acquaintances. This time he came to Tianjin, and we really became friends. .”
"I don't think he has a job either."
"It turns out there are, otherwise, what does he do for a living? Besides, it's not a problem. When the time comes, let father say something casually, and find an agency to let him in."
"No parents either?"
"No."
"This……"
Irene put the stockings she took off on the side of the bed, and stretched out her long white legs, "Although he was not taught by his parents, but you can see how good his conversation is. He is also very personable in private, I think He was a natural gentleman."
The aunt saw her niece defending Lu Sheng eloquently, as if she was in a hurry, so she didn't say any more.After the aunt left the room, Irene rolled on the big bed, and raised her hand to look at the little ring on her middle finger.This ring was put on by Lu Sheng himself, very suddenly.He didn't say a single sweet word before, he suddenly opened the box and took out the ring, took her hand and put it on her finger, as if it was an urgent matter that he just remembered by chance.
Irene liked his boldness and straightforwardness very much.She thought that he must still be a virgin who tasted love for the first time. If he hadn't burned him with love himself, maybe he would have lived his life in such a rigid and serious way—he looked like the kind of old-fashioned person who could never fall in love for the rest of his life. Say love, don't understand, don't want to.
She thought she had transformed him and brought him into a new heaven and a new earth.He was [-] percent hers, and she was the contented creator.
After one night, before Irene got up, she was already humming English pop songs in her nose.Twirling and dancing all the way into the bathroom on tiptoe, she also felt that she was crazy and funny.With her fingers buried in the soap foam, she carefully scrubbed the corners of her eyes and nose.Today is different from yesterday, today she is "reliable for life", and already has a fiancé whom she likes.Of course, it seemed a bit premature to say that he was his fiancé. After all, although the family did not interfere with her making a boyfriend, but when it came to discussing marriage, she didn't have to care about others, but her father had to do it.Although my father has the world in his heart, he doesn't care much about her, but he doesn't care about her, and he doesn't care about other brothers and sisters!What's more, whether you don't care or not, you will always look like a smiling and loving father when you see her.If she acted coquettishly, he would give in; if she reached out for money, he would give as much as she wanted.Such a father can't be regarded as a bad man anyway, especially since he has seen the old man in the past year, it makes people feel a little distressed to see him.
Using her ring finger to wipe off the lipstick on her lips bit by bit, she called through the door of the bathroom to let the little girl polish her white leather shoes and bring them in.
The pink open gauze gown and the pink on her cheeks reflected each other. She sat on the edge of the bed, put on her socks and shoes, then lifted her small parasol and small leather bag, and flew out gracefully.The weather is really good today, the sun is so bright in the morning, the only fly in the ointment is that the sports car I use has something wrong, and I haven't driven it back after two days of repairs.She walked to the gate hesitantly, thinking that she just called a rickshaw to find Lu Sheng?Or mobilize the old car that is idle at the aunt's house?The car was knocked off a lot of paint, but there was no money to repair it, it looked like a toad, it was really ugly.
Thinking of this, she stopped at the door, and was about to ask the old doorman in the concierge to go to the street to call a rickshaw for herself, but suddenly there was a call from the road outside the door: "Hi!"
The "Hi" didn't name or surname, Eileen looked up subconsciously, but saw a black car parked on the opposite side of the road.The front and rear windows of the car were fully open, and a snow-white face protruded from the rear window.That face looked at her with red lips and white teeth, and shouted again, "Hi!"
Irene startled, then recognized him with disgust.He looked at her, and the driver in front of him looked straight at her, all insane.Irene frowned slightly, intending to ignore them, but after thinking about it, she thought there was no need to escape.Even for Lu Sheng, she should meet them for a while.
So she nodded to the black car generously, and she responded, "Mr. Long, good morning."
This is not Irene's door-knocking style. As for Long Xiang——Long Xiang probably doesn't know what knocking is.Turning to the door with his shirt in his hand, he raised his heart and asked in surprise and vigilance: "Who?"
There was a low response from outside the door, "Big brother, it's me."
Lu Sheng froze for a moment, and when he regained consciousness, he found that he had already opened the door and stood at the door.Looking down at the person coming in front of the door, he looked at Yaya for more than half a minute without saying a word.Yaya hangs her head at a loss, her lips are bright red, because she bit her teeth hard when she went upstairs.The rich lady in the convertible sports car is so delicate and beautiful, she also wants to add some blood to herself.
As if he finally understood Yaya, Lu Sheng grabbed her arm, dragged her into the room, and immediately asked, "Are you sick?"
Yaya shook her head in a panic, "No, I'm not sick."
"Then how did you become so thin?"
Yaya raised her hand and touched her shoulder and arm, with a childish and dazed look on her face.She was indeed thinner, her previously plump face now showed the contours of her cheekbones, her blush cheeks with a layer of fine down had faded, and her skin had become a yellow and thin layer.A cyan satin cheongsam hangs straight down, and the existence of the inner body cannot be seen.In summer, her cheongsam was still long-sleeved, and she wore the narrow sleeves loosely, with the cuffs protruding from her wrists, and around her wrists was a jadeite bracelet.The bracelet was green and thick, as if it was about to break her thin bones.Lu Sheng looked at her, and the more he looked at her, the more angry he became, he was almost out of breath, "Tell me, why did you become so thin? Is he still abusing you?"
Yaya didn't know what "abuse" was, so this time she was really at a loss.Looking up at Lu Sheng's face, she didn't pay attention to the other's question, but just smiled slightly out of joy.
In the end, Lu Sheng became even angrier, "Still laughing? Are you stupid?"
Yaya stopped laughing immediately, playing with the small leather bag with both hands, she mumbled and shook her head, "I'm not stupid."
Lu Sheng didn't listen to her, first grabbed her purse and put it on the coffee table, then took her hand, and rolled the sleeve to the elbow.This slender arm was clean and white. He took her other hand and continued to check. This time he found a red and purple bruise on the other's arm.Yaya wanted to retract her hand uneasily, but he let her retract, and sat down on the sofa by himself.
Yaya put her hands behind her back, lowered her head and murmured, "Big Brother, he asked me to come and find you and go home."
Lu Sheng clasped his hands together, not allowing himself to lose his temper with Ya Ya, and only asked, "Will you let me go back?"
Immediately beyond his expectation, Yaya shook her head hesitantly. "I don't know..." She said in a low voice, "He has a good heart, but...anyway...you will suffer if you follow him."
Lu Sheng let out a heavy breath, then said, "Don't go with him."
Yaya stood upright like a wooden sculpture of clay, knowing in her heart that there are some women in this world who can do things that are "not enough", but those women are not from the same world as her.So the three words "no more" that the big brother said, no matter how you think about it, it is an angry statement.It sounds good, but it can't be taken seriously.
At this time, Lu Sheng said again, "Being a widow is better than following him! A widow sits at home with the door closed, at least she won't be beaten if anyone wants to beat her! When I opened the door just now, I dare not recognize you. Big, I've never seen you so skinny!"
After saying this, he suddenly got up and walked into the bedroom.Yaya looked back at him and saw him rummaging through the chest of drawers at the end of the bed.Before she could understand, he had already returned to the living room holding a small paper list.
"That year, I asked Long Xiang for [-] yuan. This year, I spent some on my own, and now I will give you [-] yuan. Remember, this is called a check. You don't need to say anything when you get it to the bank, and you can get the money directly. .You take it away, this is your body. With this money, you can have food to live alone, remember?"
Yaya looked at the check that Lu Sheng handed to her, tears welled up in her big dry eyes.Dodging and taking a step back, she said in a crying voice: "Big brother, I don't want it. I'm not afraid of him, I can bear it. When he loses his temper, I avoid him. Isn't that how we came here when we were young? Can I deal with him."
Lu Sheng slapped the check on the coffee table, "Since childhood? It was you and me! Can you deal with him? He is like a mad dog. You are timid, soft-tempered, and stupid. Can you deal with him? I see him Now you're so fat, how about you? You're so skinny! And that kick—his kick almost killed you that day, it's a thing that kills when it goes mad, Are you still reluctant to leave him?"
Yaya wanted to cry at first, but now that she heard Lu Sheng's aggressive accusations, she couldn't help sobbing, she really cried.
"Big brother..." She wiped her tears with the back of her hand, wiped her tears and snot, "I've already been like this... all my life..."
She didn't wail, but she was out of breath from crying, with faint tendons popping out of her forehead, she endured and endured it, it was unbearable.A big hand tugged at her wrist, and a wet towel was patted on her face.Lu Sheng wiped away her tears with all his might.She didn't hide, out of nature, she was also greedy for this limited warmth.Long Xiang also treated her kindly sometimes, but that kindness didn't seem to warm her up, it was more like burning her.
After Lu Sheng wiped her face, he smoothed her wet bangs with his fingers.Looking from her eyebrows to her ear temples, he found that Yaya was still wearing the pair of diamond earrings he bought for her back then.Holding the big towel in his hand, he suddenly opened his arms and hugged Yaya into his arms.In fact, they were originally a couple of lovers, but how did they get to where they are today?Turning his head and sticking his lips to Yaya's hair, he held his breath, opened his eyes wide and looked out the window, he could see thousands of miles away.Seeing the mighty wind blowing in front of his eyes, drying his tears and blood.
"Yaya," he said in a low voice with a hoarse voice, "remember, as long as I live, I will always protect you. No matter you are 20, 30, 40 or 50, when you come, I will protect you forever." It's time."
Slowly tightening his arms tightly, he seemed to want to strangle the thin bones in his arms, "I won't leave you to him anymore. It doesn't matter if you don't want to leave him now, as long as you know that you are out of the dragon At the door of the house, there is still a big brother to go to, that's all."
Yaya buried her face in his chest without saying a word.At this moment, she didn't argue or think about anything, her body and mind were still in the warm darkness, she sank in the fresh smell, into a chaotic world without light or sound.There, she is not afraid.
She didn't move, and Lu Sheng didn't speak anymore.Gently stroking Yaya's back one after another, he thought they could actually stand like this forever.First, there are two trees that grow together, and then there are two rocks after the vicissitudes of life.Haven't they been like this for many years before?Isn't there at most only a curtain between them?
The life of the chaotic world is half an hour. After half an hour, Yaya raises her head and the world is annihilated.
"I'm leaving." She told Lu Sheng, her cheeks and eyelids were red, "Mother Chen's son is still in the car downstairs, he sent me to find you."
Lu Sheng let go of his arm, and said in a low voice, "That kid Chen Youqing is not strict, don't trust him. What do you say to Long Xiang after you go back? If you didn't bring me back, would he lose his temper with you again? "
Yaya smiled, that smile was very serene, so serene that it almost looked old, "I can't."
Then she bent down and picked up the small leather bag, turned around and walked a few steps towards the door.Before leaving the door, he turned around and said, "Big brother, I don't want money, and I have nowhere to hide it. I remember everything you said, and I know how to be careful. I can see him every day, but I I can't see you every day, so take care. I know you're fine, so I won't miss you."
Lu Sheng just nodded, seeing that she was going back into the fire pit.But whether it's better to stay with a tyrant-like husband, or to be alone, he really can't make up his mind for Yaya.Everything has to wait for his revenge to be completed.If Man Shucai is really dead and he is still alive, he will make the decision for Yaya.Whether she is willing or not, he will abduct her out.A little girl with no idea, what does she know about good and bad?
Yaya went back to her home in Tianjin.The journey was too short, it seemed that before she could sit still in the car, Chen Youqing had already opened the door for her from the outside.She didn't really plan to join Lu Sheng, but the silent embrace just now for half an hour was really good.It hasn't been this "good" in a long, long time.Looking up at the scenery in the courtyard, you can also see that the grass is green and the flowers are red, the sky is as blue as the sea, and the sun is shining brightly.Suddenly she stopped and raised her face. She set up the awning with her hands and looked up. Her face was flushed with a damp look. She was like a flower and plant that had absorbed water from the soil, unconsciously recovering a little vitality.
Walking into the living room of the building step by step, Yaya saw Longxiang head-on.Long Xiang was leaning on the sofa smoking a cigarette, and suddenly saw that she came back early, so he quickly got up and greeted her, "Why is your face so red? Are you suffering from heat stroke?"
Yaya saw that the hand he was touching towards her was still holding a cigarette, because she was afraid that he would burn herself badly, so she subconsciously dodged back, "No, I let the sun tan. I just waited until the big brother gone."
Long Xiang immediately regained his spirits, "How is it? Did he kick you out?"
Yaya replied: "No."
Long Xiang then asked again: "Then will he come back?"
Yaya shook her head, "I can say whatever I want, but he just refuses to come back."
Long Xiang put the cigarette between his fingers into his mouth and took a deep puff. As if he didn't understand, he leaned slightly to look into Yaya's eyes, "Don't want to go back? Did you make it clear? Are you stupid? , Didn’t say yes, so he refused to come back?”
Yaya was afraid that he would hold a cigarette or a sharp knife and talk in front of her, so she took another step back calmly, "I made it clear, but big brother is determined this time. I want to persuade you again. He, but he was unhappy if he talked too much, and even opened the door to let me go."
After the words fell, Long Xiang suddenly let out a lion's roar, "Stupid!"
As soon as she closed her eyes, she was sprayed with saliva all over her face by Long Xiang.After Long Xiang roared, he didn't want to finish it, and he stretched out his hand and started pointing at Yaya, "He doesn't listen to me at all, I can't help it; but you've already talked to him, why can't you coax him back?" With his hands on his hips, he took a step closer, and he showed a ferocious face, "I think you did it on purpose! You deliberately messed with me! You deliberately didn't let him come back! He always protected you back then, and you treated him better than me back then. I know you all despise me, let him come back to me, you feel bad——" The hand holding the cigarette waved to Yaya again, "You two are colluding, just want to piss me off alive! I'm dead , you two will be proud!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Yaya turned around and ran away.This time he escaped in time, and only got hit on the shoulder for a while, which was not serious this time.She fled to the second floor without looking back, and stood with her back against the wall, pricking up her ears to listen to the movement downstairs.He lifted it up and hung it on his chest in one breath, until she was sure that Long Xiang would not catch up, and then she exhaled heavily.
Yaya hid for a day, until at night when she had nothing to hide, she met Long again.
It's hot, and the fan doesn't help.Yaya was wearing a singlet and shorts, squatting on the bed with a mat; Long Xiang had just taken a shower and was sitting on the hardwood chair beside the bed to dry off his sweat.Leaning a bottle of foreign wine on his snow-white lap, he held the slender neck of the bottle, and every once in a while he would take a big gulp from the bottle, and he drank it without food or drink.
After patting a big pillow and straightening it, Yaya said, "Go up to sleep, and I'll turn off the lights. Screens and mosquito coils don't work, if you turn on the lights, you'll attract mosquitos."
Long Xiang obediently got up and climbed onto the bed, there was a rustling sound behind him, it was Yaya who was getting off the bed lightly to turn off the light.After draining the last sip of wine from the bottom of the bottle, he groped in the sudden darkness and put the bottle on the ground.
There was a cool breeze on the back of his back, and it was Yaya who returned to the bed and fanned him from head to toe with a cattail fan.He became more comfortable, and began to murmur, his voice resounded in the quiet night, and it sounded a little immature, like a boy who hadn't fully developed yet.
"Hey, Yaya." With his chin sunk in the big pillow, he looked forward with piercing eyes.Although there is nothing ahead except the bedside railing.
Yaya reached out and touched his spine to see if he was still sweating, "Huh?"
"Lusheng has a new girlfriend."
Yaya was silent for a moment, and then replied: "I saw it today too, a rich lady drove him back in a car."
Long Xiang said again: "He has changed his mind."
Yaya shook her fan slowly, her heart was as quiet as that night, "How can this be called a change of heart?"
Long Xiang propped up his upper body on his elbows, turned his head back to Yaya, "Why isn't that called a change of heart? He doesn't want me, nor you, and being with that outsider every day, isn't that called a change of heart?"
Yaya agreed vaguely, not to argue with him, what he said was what.After slapping him for a while, she tentatively said softly, "But sooner or later, big brother will have a family."
Long Xiang looked back at her again, but this time he didn't speak.
Yaya patted him reassuringly, and whispered again: "Sooner or later, we grow up."
As if he was choking, Long Xiang quickly blinked his eyes at Yaya, then leaned forward and leaned back on the pillow, he stiffened his neck in dissatisfaction, "No!"
Just not!Must not!From childhood to adulthood, he has almost been without a father and no mother, and the only bosom friends are Lusheng and Yaya.Huang Ma only knew how to prepare food and clothing for him, and the rambling was annoying, so Huang Ma was not qualified to join the bosom friend's team.Who is he?He is a dragon!The real dragon is reincarnated!He is such a great person, no one loves him, shouldn't the two of them love and be with him for the rest of their lives?Three people, two men and one woman, of course Yaya should belong to him, as for Lu Sheng—does Lu Sheng have to marry someone else?Will he die if he doesn't get married?Why didn't he make sacrifices for himself?Traitor, traitor with a changed heart!He just didn't avenge his father's death for him, so he wanted to break up with himself, how cruel!How vicious!I don't know the overall situation, so I only care about his old sesame seed and rotten millet!
The more Long Xiang thought about it, the more wronged he became. He was wronged to a certain extent, and he suddenly sat up and put his forehead on Yaya's shoulder.Knowing that he was upset, Yaya skillfully waved the fan for him with one hand, and stroked his back with the other.
After stroking for 10 minutes, she supported Long Xiang to lie down.Pulling a thin blanket to cover him, she leaned aside and patted him lightly, treating him as a burdensome child.Usually, when coaxing him to sleep, she often has no emotion, she just hopes that he will fall asleep, and she will feel better; but today is different, today when she looks at the big moon outside the window, she sees that the moon has become a spirit, and after a while it has turned into a big moon. The big brother's face suddenly turned into the big brother's chest.The hug between the two during the day was a sweet dream for her, enough for her to hide in her heart and recall it for many years.Quietly mouthing silently, she called out three words: "Big! Brother! Brother!"
She hadn't yelled these three words for nearly a year, and now beside Long Xiang, although she only made a mouth shape, she also had a kind of joy and panic as if she violated a taboo and deviant.
Yaya slept with her back facing Longxiang, she curled up and lay on her side, and Longxiang hugged her waist from behind, in exactly the same posture as her.With his forehead against her back, he let out a soft breathing sound, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly.Touching his bare arms around her waist, Yaya sometimes wondered whether she wanted to hate him or not - she had never hated anyone in her life.Don't dare to hate, and won't hate.
A dim blue light gradually lit up outside the window, it was almost dawn.Yaya gently wanted to get up, but suddenly Long Xiang's voice sounded behind her, "What are you going to do?"
This sound came very calmly, making people wonder how long Long Xiang had been waking up secretly.Yaya was taken aback, and then replied in a low voice, "I'm going to pee."
Long Xiang let go of her as soon as he raised his hand, and then sat up himself.After scratching his messy hair, he lowered his head and said, "I dreamed that Lu Sheng was born on the battlefield. He ran behind my back, and you followed him."
Then he stretched his legs out of the bed and searched for slippers all over the floor, "I still have to find him, I must find him back. He is good at everything, but he is small-minded, grudge-like, like a woman, and he has to ask for it." People coax. Just coax me, I'm going to go all out!"
Regardless of whether the content of his words is correct or not, just his serious attitude is already rare.Yaya knelt at the end of the bed and looked at him, suddenly felt that he seemed to be a different person at the moment, unexpectedly very "normal".
Yaya had been the commander's wife in Beijing for two years, she was no longer sociable, and she saw many more people than when she was at home.After seeing many people, she discovered that her husband had an unspeakable strangeness, which could not be summed up simply by saying "bad temper".
Long Xiang began to "coax" Lu Sheng.
Like Irene, he also found that Lusheng was particularly good at disappearing, and he would disappear if he said nothing.But Irene is alone and can only sit on the sidelines, but he is different.With thousands of troops in his hands, he made a long-distance call to Beijing, and he activated his secret service.
Then Lu Sheng discovered that there were dragons everywhere in Tianjin Weili.As long as he places an order, the dragon will definitely descend from the sky.He had a full lunch, so he could go for a walk in the park and meet Long Xiang head to head.He didn't look at Longxiang, just kept moving forward with his head down, while Longxiang was backing towards him, making funny faces at him while backing away.Seeing that he still didn't smile at the end, Long Xiang turned around and took his arm again, wanting to walk side by side with him.Lu Sheng was a big man, and he was a well-dressed big man. Wherever he walked, he would attract people to take a look.He was walking on the grass like a human, but there was a dragon figure scratching his ear and cheek hanging on his arm, which looked strange no matter what.Besides, Long Xiang's hands were dishonest, he was always tentatively trying to touch his head and face, and jumped up and down on him from time to time. Looking sideways, he didn't understand what kind of joke these two young men were making.Lu Sheng was the most shameless person - even a shameless person couldn't stand Long Xiang's tricks, so he felt anxious.
In a hurry, he suppressed his anger, not wanting to waste his energy in conflicting with the dragon again.He knew that Long Xiang was only trying hard at him now, and did not turn his gun on Irene.But sooner or later, he will focus on Irene, because in Long Xiang's mind, Irene is an outsider, and he is a traitor, who was abducted by that outsider.
Long Xiang is very clear about what he wants.When Long Xiang finds out Irene's identity, then his conspiracy will probably be revealed.
So time is limited, he has to speed up, and at the same time...
At the same time, he wondered if he should be perfunctory and perfunctory with Long Xiang, at least not let him blindly add trouble to himself.But turning his head to look at Longxiang's face, he found that he still couldn't do it.His feelings for this man were too strong and clear.When we were on good terms with him, we could work our lives for him; when we were good, we were so good, but now that we are bad, we can't be so bad as an understatement.
Irene knew that Lu Sheng had recently been entangled again by the Dragon Commander.To be honest, she was a little intimidated when dealing with that Commander Long, even though Xiang Long didn't know her at all, and never thought of her.And the reason for this fear, she herself can't explain clearly-Long Xiang's appearance is not hideous and terrible, and she has never heard that he has eaten living people at home.But from the first time she saw him, Irene felt that this man was evil, and he wasn't even very beautiful.
So after thinking about it, she came up with an idea and told Lu Sheng, "Let's leave Tianjin for now!"
Lu Sheng asked back, "Us?"
Seeing that Irene blushed a little, he immediately changed his words and explained: "Have you thought about where to go?"
Irene pressed her lower lip with a finger, in a naive look of deep thought, "Hmm...Shanghai, maybe?"
Lu Sheng smiled, "Can you go on a long trip with me?"
Irene felt that his smile had some meaning, so her rouged face turned even redder, "What do you mean by that?"
The conversation between the two took place in a coffee shop as usual.Hearing Irene's question at this moment, Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then raised his head and called her name: "Irene."
Erin raised her eyebrows at him to show that she was listening.
Lu Sheng seemed to be hesitant, and his voice was low, "I'll give you a ring, okay?"
Irene looked at him expressionlessly, her heart started to beat like a drum.Then she lowered her eyes and stirred the cold coffee with a small spoon. She seemed to ask inadvertently, "Why?"
After the words fell, she raised her eyes, and her eyelashes fluttered.Lu Sheng in front sat with his back straight, looking shy and dignified.The sun slanted on him, and the light blurred the contours of half of his face—without the contours, the pupils became a light brown color, and he became a handsome half-faced man.The clear half is indeed him, and the other half, whose face is vaguely melted in the sunlight.
"Because..." He pondered softly like a sigh, then looked directly into Irene's eyes and smiled.
It was a tacit smile, but Irene would never let him just know it and keep it silent.The fingers holding the small silver spoon trembled a little, she suppressed her violent heartbeat, and looked back firmly, "Why?" Lu Sheng's eyes rolled down, and she avoided Irene's gaze with a smile.He softly whispered: "Because, I love you."
Erin had been waiting for him to say this, and believed that he would say it sooner or later.But when the matter came to an end, she heard it with her own ears, but she was still full of ideas and always felt that it was not enough.Can't tell what's not enough, he is not a romantic and enthusiastic person, and she doesn't expect him to make a touching confession to herself.He said everything that should be said, and he said it very clearly, but she was just lost.Because it is the first time to fall in love with someone like this—the first love is like a thunder that stirs the fire, and at the moment of the explosion, it should shake the world.
A cup of cold coffee was slowly sipped by her, the loss gradually disappeared, and the joy gradually surfaced.Reluctantly raising her eyes to look at Lu Sheng, she began to laugh uncontrollably.
This person who comes and goes without a trace like the wind is hers.She is chasing love and chasing after wind.
In a small jewelry store, Erin picked out a small diamond ring.Although she was not popular at home since she was a child, but because she can compete, she is not lacking in material things.She never lacks jewelry, and she knows that Lu Sheng is in a state of nowhere, so she can't bear to let him spend money.
The ring was bought, and the two were walking on the street in the evening. Irene asked with a smile, "What is this? A token of love?"
Lu Sheng walked beside her slowly. Ever since he said "I love you" during the day, he has been afraid to face her gray eyes.Those gray eyes were too clear, too clear to conceal.He saw the joy in her eyes and heart, the more she was happy, the more he felt his own cruelty and inhumanity.After all, the human heart is still the human heart, no matter how cold and hard it is, it will not turn into stone.So he was timid and guilty, preferring to avoid the other party's gaze.
"I don't know if it is eligible to be counted." Answering Irene's question softly, he heard his own voice was surprisingly gentle, hissing like a snake in the dark, "I have confessed my heart, you I'm not 100% sure yet."
Irene put her hand on his arm, and laughed in the evening wind, "Fool, how do you want to be sure?"
Lu Sheng threw a bombshell, "Maybe, get married?"
As soon as these words came out, Irene immediately turned to look at him.
Lu Sheng glanced at her in panic, then turned his face away.Seeing his shy gesture, Irene suddenly wanted to laugh.At the same time, flowers bloomed in my heart, blooming layer by layer, and instantly burst into splendor all over the sky.Joyfully letting go, she quickly walked a few steps forward, turned her back to Lu Sheng and said, "I won't listen to you anymore."
Lu Sheng stopped and looked at her back. For a moment, he suddenly hoped that Irene would stride forward and never look back.What Erin didn't know, he knew.Irene was walking on the thin ice, and there was a deep pool under the ice. She didn't know it, but he knew it.
However, Eileen turned back.Gently and deftly turning backwards, she turned the skirt into a flower as usual.With her hands drooping and carrying a small leather bag, she straightened her legs, held her head high, and made a very energetic appearance, "I invite you to my aunt's house tonight, how about it?"
Lu Sheng smiled knowingly—Irene had always lived in her aunt's house, and the status of this aunt was no lower than that of her father in her heart.Since her father is not in Tianjin at the moment, she will introduce him to her aunt first.
Irene's aunt—Lu Sheng didn't ask if it was her real aunt—lived in a mansion in the British Concession.The mansion looks quite luxurious from the outside, but the gold and jade are outside, and the inside is ruined.Because my uncle is incompetent, his only strength is reproduction, resulting in a family full of children.The aunt gave birth, and the uncle's concubine also gave birth, and they lived endlessly, eating up the dowry brought by the aunt alive.But my aunt is also an optimist, since the house is already in disarray, she simply does not refuse anyone who comes.Besides, Irene doesn't eat and live for free. Her unique skill is to ask for money from her father, and she asks for one.From her own property, she secretly gave her aunt money for her private house. My aunt was happy, and she lived with confidence.
The aunt who greeted all guests with a smile, saw Lu Sheng, and like all bored women, she immediately became very interested, wishing to ask all the way up to Lu Sheng's eight generations of ancestors.Irene always believed that Lu Sheng, as an orphan, had no ancestors, so she kept changing the topic in the middle, for fear that her aunt would poke his sore spot.After dinner, Lusheng said his goodbyes and left. When Auntie entered Irene's room, the smile on her face disappeared.
She asked Irene: "Where did you know this Mr. Bai? I haven't heard you mention it before."
Irene sat on the edge of the bed, lifted her skirt and raised her thighs, and carefully took off her stockings, "We have known each other for a long time, but it turned out to be just acquaintances. This time he came to Tianjin, and we really became friends. .”
"I don't think he has a job either."
"It turns out there are, otherwise, what does he do for a living? Besides, it's not a problem. When the time comes, let father say something casually, and find an agency to let him in."
"No parents either?"
"No."
"This……"
Irene put the stockings she took off on the side of the bed, and stretched out her long white legs, "Although he was not taught by his parents, but you can see how good his conversation is. He is also very personable in private, I think He was a natural gentleman."
The aunt saw her niece defending Lu Sheng eloquently, as if she was in a hurry, so she didn't say any more.After the aunt left the room, Irene rolled on the big bed, and raised her hand to look at the little ring on her middle finger.This ring was put on by Lu Sheng himself, very suddenly.He didn't say a single sweet word before, he suddenly opened the box and took out the ring, took her hand and put it on her finger, as if it was an urgent matter that he just remembered by chance.
Irene liked his boldness and straightforwardness very much.She thought that he must still be a virgin who tasted love for the first time. If he hadn't burned him with love himself, maybe he would have lived his life in such a rigid and serious way—he looked like the kind of old-fashioned person who could never fall in love for the rest of his life. Say love, don't understand, don't want to.
She thought she had transformed him and brought him into a new heaven and a new earth.He was [-] percent hers, and she was the contented creator.
After one night, before Irene got up, she was already humming English pop songs in her nose.Twirling and dancing all the way into the bathroom on tiptoe, she also felt that she was crazy and funny.With her fingers buried in the soap foam, she carefully scrubbed the corners of her eyes and nose.Today is different from yesterday, today she is "reliable for life", and already has a fiancé whom she likes.Of course, it seemed a bit premature to say that he was his fiancé. After all, although the family did not interfere with her making a boyfriend, but when it came to discussing marriage, she didn't have to care about others, but her father had to do it.Although my father has the world in his heart, he doesn't care much about her, but he doesn't care about her, and he doesn't care about other brothers and sisters!What's more, whether you don't care or not, you will always look like a smiling and loving father when you see her.If she acted coquettishly, he would give in; if she reached out for money, he would give as much as she wanted.Such a father can't be regarded as a bad man anyway, especially since he has seen the old man in the past year, it makes people feel a little distressed to see him.
Using her ring finger to wipe off the lipstick on her lips bit by bit, she called through the door of the bathroom to let the little girl polish her white leather shoes and bring them in.
The pink open gauze gown and the pink on her cheeks reflected each other. She sat on the edge of the bed, put on her socks and shoes, then lifted her small parasol and small leather bag, and flew out gracefully.The weather is really good today, the sun is so bright in the morning, the only fly in the ointment is that the sports car I use has something wrong, and I haven't driven it back after two days of repairs.She walked to the gate hesitantly, thinking that she just called a rickshaw to find Lu Sheng?Or mobilize the old car that is idle at the aunt's house?The car was knocked off a lot of paint, but there was no money to repair it, it looked like a toad, it was really ugly.
Thinking of this, she stopped at the door, and was about to ask the old doorman in the concierge to go to the street to call a rickshaw for herself, but suddenly there was a call from the road outside the door: "Hi!"
The "Hi" didn't name or surname, Eileen looked up subconsciously, but saw a black car parked on the opposite side of the road.The front and rear windows of the car were fully open, and a snow-white face protruded from the rear window.That face looked at her with red lips and white teeth, and shouted again, "Hi!"
Irene startled, then recognized him with disgust.He looked at her, and the driver in front of him looked straight at her, all insane.Irene frowned slightly, intending to ignore them, but after thinking about it, she thought there was no need to escape.Even for Lu Sheng, she should meet them for a while.
So she nodded to the black car generously, and she responded, "Mr. Long, good morning."
