atypical romanticism

Chapter 17 The Past

After New Year's Day, life was pressed on the fast-forward button, and Zhou Yu finally looked forward to the holiday in the days of double speed.

The results of the first issue of "SHINE" in the new year were inspired by Shen Nanfen's retirement, and the sales reached a new high. The temperament of the "coal boss" has faded a little.

If there is no accident, the name of the person in charge of this first issue will definitely be on the promotion list in the new year.Although there is no final decision yet, Zhou Yu, the general manager, is undoubtedly the most likely person to take over as the leader of the planning team.

Zhou Yu also had a faint expectation in her heart, she had never been a jade gentleman who "regards money like dung, and fame and fortune like a dung beetle".

She is working for others, what is she looking for if she doesn't want to get promoted and raise her salary?Picture the gorgeous round egg on the head of the boss?

What's more, this is also a kind of recognition.It was her answer sheet to Yu Hong.

But compared to these, Zhou Yu still has a huge rock in his heart - should he tell Xiang Sheng about her condition?

The longer she was with Xiang Sheng, the more subconsciously she was afraid that Xiang Sheng would know about her illness.

Xiang Sheng is a person who can combine gentleness and wantonness well.She can play with the grandpas and aunts who have been left in place by the times, and can also be the "head" of the brats downstairs.

It seems that most people in the world don't understand, but she can listen to it with a smile, and then give an explanation like a fairy tale.

Zhou Yu sometimes thinks that if people really have a past life, then Xiang Sheng's past life must be a wanderer away from the hustle and bustle.

Everyone has a selfish gene, the longer she spends with Xiang Sheng, the more uneasy she feels in her heart - even Xiang Sheng probably finds it difficult to accept that her partner is a mental patient.

In the living room, Zhou Yu put the phone on the coffee table, and let Ms. Yu Hong on the phone screen chatter to the ceiling.

Xiang Sheng went to the supermarket with the grandma downstairs early in the morning, and now she is the only one at home.

"Have you booked a ticket? Don't wait until the end to make up the ticket. Are you sure you can make it up? Last year was an example. You came back on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Your grandma is so old, and she can do it in a year." Seeing you like this, you still missed it..."

Zhou Yu sighed lightly, and interrupted Yu Hong's singing in time: "I have made an appointment, and I promise to go back before New Year's Eve. Where's my dad? Why haven't I heard him?"

Yu Hong sneered, it's okay not to mention Zhou Zhou, but when she mentioned it, she would get angry: "When your father was young, he was a monk in the work unit and beat the clock for a day. These years, when he is about to retire, it has become even worse. , Recently, I also have a hobby of raising birds, I have to raise two parrots on the balcony, take their bird cages out in the morning, and come back with them in the afternoon."

Menopausal women have a kind of super power, but if they scold the father of their children, the end will definitely fall on the children: "You are not a worry-free person. Back then, you said that you were the first choice to write a teacher. You promised well, but the result What? In the end, Shanghua University sent the admission letter, and you have to learn some ancient Chinese. You can learn it, and let you take the teaching qualification after you are admitted to graduate school. You found a job behind my back. Just like your dad!"

For Yu Hong, the fact that Zhou Yu changed his will without authorization was a hurdle that he couldn't pass.She still feels dazed when she remembers it—this outrageous thing was actually done by her well-behaved and sensible daughter since she was a child.

Her daughter, who was not rebellious in adolescence, actually gave her such a big "surprise" in the summer when she was 17 years old.

But it's done, it's useless to talk more.Like most mothers, Yu Hong's anger is only incidental to her concern.The hostility and sophistication brought to her by the trials of life have made her forget how to talk to her children well.

In the end, this anger was returned to the "initiator": "I'll have to pick up the feathers of those two birds for your father tomorrow, fry them and eat them!"

Yu Hong had to read these words every time in the video, and Zhou Yu felt like a gust of wind had entered his ears.

Folding the clothes, she echoed, "Okay, okay, wait until I go back and pick it up with you."

"Go," Yu Hong snorted, and started to get down to business, "Do you still remember your Aunt Liu?"

Zhou Yu shook his head: "Aunt Liu?"

"Just your junior high school math teacher. Her son is the same age as you. His name is Lin Yi. He is now a doctor in the People's Hospital. He just got admitted to the hospital's establishment the year before last. He is also single and has no partner. Will you come back and meet?"

Zhou Yu froze his hands as he folded his clothes—Yu Hong actually planned to let her go on a blind date with Lin Yi.

The world is crazy.

But after thinking about it, she was relieved - she swallowed all those bad things back then, and Yu Hong didn't know anything.

Relieved to be relieved, Zhou Yu's complexion still turned cold: "No see."

"How old are you this year and you're not married yet, tell me the truth and you haven't talked about anything?"

Zhou Yu took a deep breath, tried to suppress the impatience in his heart, and said patiently: "I have no date. I was busy studying when I was in school, and I was busy making money when I was working. I don't have time to fall in love. Mom, I don't want to get married." You won't die, why are you in a hurry?"

"Is it unreasonable not to get married? Can you do it without offspring? Why don't you understand this at such an age."

Zhou Yu opened his mouth, but finally closed it—the words were not speculative.

Yu Hong's feudal patriarch's one-size-fits-all way of thinking has been carved into his bones, and Zhou Yu's "progressive thinking" is outrageous to her.

"I'll meet you when I get back, do you hear me?"

Zhou Yu ran out of patience, picked up the phone and said to Yu Hong: "I still have something to do here, hang up."

"You..." Before the words finished, Zhou Yu conveniently hung up the video.

In an instant, the world was quiet.

There was a chuckle from behind, she followed the sound and looked, Xiang Sheng came back at some point.

She was leaning against the door with the dishes, and stood with her long legs crossed casually, her eyes sparkling behind the rimless glasses.

"Did you hear that?" Zhou Yu got up and took the food in her hand, and sighed helplessly, "My mother, alas, it seems that I have never been able to achieve the image of a daughter in her mind."

"Mr. Zhou, you are very nice, in every sense." Xiang Sheng hugged her from behind, the scent of roses on her body mixed with the coolness outside, unexpectedly had a hint of aloofness and aloofness.

Xiang Sheng, as a qualified hands-off shopkeeper, just takes pictures, and dealing with Party A, which is such a brain-intensive matter, is usually in charge of the "Chief of the House of Internal Affairs" Lu Junhui, and the cooperation with "SHINE" is also posted by Lu Junhui The job number was discussed.

So much so that although she was foolishly tricked into going to Shanghua to attend the dinner, she actually didn't know that there was a person named Zhou Yu lying on her list.

That dinner was the first time Xiang Sheng met Zhou Yu. How should I describe that feeling——Zhou Yu was like a big flower blooming enthusiastically that whole night, smiling brightly at everyone, but The more Xiang Sheng looked at it, the more tired he became.

Zhou Yu's appearance was very similar to her appearance when she was hospitalized - even though she was 1 unwilling in her heart, when she met Shang Xiangbei and Ke Qin's expectant eyes, she still bit the bullet and pulled out a smiling face to accept it.

All her optimism was drained when she was first diagnosed.

After being diagnosed for the second time, every moment in the hospital was a drain on her will.

When she saw Zhou Yu, she was instinctively attracted to her.

She is a photographer, and Zhou Yu is undoubtedly beautiful in her eyes—it is a kind of stubborn beauty that is infinitely close to collapse but still insists on protecting the last trace of her dignity, and it is also the most real flesh and blood hidden in her vagabond skin.

Although it is said that "death belongs to life, just as life belongs to life", how many people can really do this?

Most people's attitude towards death is secretive. The moment Xiang Sheng chose to give up treatment, Ke Qin, who was as enlightened as Xiang Bei, did not understand.

She and Zhou Yu are like ascetics walking on an unlit path, each other is their unexpected joy and only comfort on this road.

They are not honest, but love is more passionate than any honest meeting.

Xiang Shengwo looked at her from the sofa and asked, "Mr. Zhou, when are you going home?"

Zhou Yu glanced at her, and said, "I asked knowingly, did you make a mistake to say something here?"

On the night of ticket grabbing, Zhou Yu had just taken the medicine and fell into a drowsy sleep, unable to get up at all.

When I opened my eyes in the morning, I saw Xiang Sheng's sticky note pasted on the bedside, which read "1:13 am on January [-]th, thank you".

"Mr. Zhou, am I that unreliable in your eyes?" Xiang Sheng put the computer aside and opened his hands towards Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu snuggled into her arms.Xiang Sheng played with her hair with her fingers, and said coquettishly: "I don't want to miss you. You go back to Yuhua, so I have to go home and eat the dog food sprinkled by my parents."

Zhou Yu thought of Yu Hong and Zhou Zhou's way of getting along, and sighed a little: "It is said that the husband and wife are middle-aged, and they are basically making ends meet. It is a kind of happiness that uncles and aunts can give you dog food."

"It seems to be the same thing." Xiang Sheng thought of something and said with a smile, "When I was a child, I was very obsessed with martial arts for a while, and my mind jumped to the point that I had to learn calligraphy. My dad thought I was a 3-minute hotness, so he didn't bother My uncles and aunts personally taught me how to write my mother’s name.”

Zhou Yu rubbed lightly on her forehead and asked, "Will it still be true now?"

"Yes, I have passed the grade examination." Xiang Sheng said.

"That's right," Zhou Yu rubbed her face, and said like teasing a kitten, "Our Shufen is so powerful."

"Hey, I shouldn't have told you that name!"

After Xiang Sheng finished speaking, he scratched the itchy flesh on her waist.Zhou Yu was too scared to be ticklish, but after Xiang Sheng tossed her like this, she softened, and her whole body was pressed under Xiang Sheng's body, the two of them started arguing back and forth on the sofa, and it was dark when the quarrel was over.

After Zhou Yu took a shower, Xiang Sheng was already standing in front of the mirror with a hair dryer.She looked at Xiang Sheng in the mirror with a concentrated expression, and her eyes suddenly became sore - such a good person, she really belonged to her alone.

It turned out that she might not be alone.

Xiang Sheng didn't speak, but hugged her tightly.After an unknown amount of time, she heard Xiang Sheng say: "Mr. Zhou, I love you, I love all of you."

Zhou Yu's heart stopped suddenly, and he looked at her in astonishment.

Xiang Sheng just smiled slightly, rubbed her hair, and said, "Mr. Zhou, I used to be someone who could become a doctor. Those messy English letters were the focus of my exam."

Zhou Yu's mouth opened and closed, and "you" couldn't make a complete sentence after asking for a long time.Xiang Sheng bent down slightly, his eyes were at the same level as hers, and his eyes were gentle enough to hold the entire Milky Way.

"I knew about it a long time ago, but thinking that you have hidden the empty bottle in the closet so carefully, you probably haven't figured out how to tell me," Xiang Sheng raised his hand and stroked her earlobe, as if to comfort a victim. Like a frightened deer, "But today you cried, and I felt that I should tell you something."

Zhou Yu controlled his trembling voice, looked at her, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiang Sheng smiled slightly, and said word by word: "I fell in love with you at first sight."

The sword that had been hanging above his head finally fell, and it turned out to be a chocolate-flavored candy.

She hugged Xiang Sheng, as if catching the moonlight before dawn: "Xiang Sheng, we are always together, okay?"

Xiang Sheng's head suddenly hurt as if it was being torn apart, and there was a busy tone in her ears, she closed her eyes and hugged Zhou Yu tightly, and after a long time, she waited for the busy tone to disappear before slowly answering: "Zhou Yu, I love you forever. "
