fall in love in winter

Chu Ning'an never heard her reply.

She wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. After a while, she said, "Where are you now?"

Xie Mingjun said, "I said so."

"Huh?" Chu Ning'an didn't recover.

Xie Mingjun repeated: "She told me."

Chu Ning'an didn't know how to answer this question, Xie Mingjun said: "If you are not busy tomorrow, I will invite you to dinner if I have time."

"……it is good."

The phone hung up, she came back to her senses, the sky outside the window was already dark, and when she returned to the living room, Xie Mingjun turned on the TV with the remote control.

The internet was disconnected at home, so she turned on the hotspot on her mobile phone, and clicked on the recent broadcast records on the TV. She only saw the news broadcasts and national talks from last month, all of which were big events that happened last month.

After reading it, she blindly clicked into the music.

"...When they get to the part, Where he's breaking her heart, It can really make me cry..."

"Just like before, It's yesterday once more."

There is an iron box on the coffee table, on which is the cute and soft Peter Rabbit.

Before Dongyin was sick and hospitalized, she went to buy toffee for Dongyin. Dongyin liked this box very much at the time, but she didn't take it with her when she left.

The box can also smell a faint aroma of toffee.

The iron box was opened by her, but the inside was not empty, it contained a coin and a few cards with Dong Yin's writing on it.

[Because of the confidential nature of the work, I can't tell you the address, I'm very sorry.But the instructor said that if it is done well, there will be better development, and he also said that he can go to the United Nations in the future, so please don't worry about me.

Maybe I have to leave for half a year, maybe a year, maybe two or three years, I don't know, the return date is undecided, but I will definitely come back.

I feel very proud to translate documents for the country.

In fact, it is not only because of the high salary, but because I can stand on a higher place, and I can get close to my dreams, like the bubbles I blew when I was a child, and they floated into my hands, making me feel that I am not So small, entitled to fight for everything and you.

I'm leaving, you have to be good.

In the days to come, it may be difficult to accept, just like when you went abroad to study, we were all very sad, and I lost my temper with you, I am very sorry.But I want to tell you that you don’t have to work so hard, just do what you can, and remember how to be happy.

All I said was angry words, so don't work too hard.

I still remember the first time I saw you.

At that time, you were very fierce and blocked me in the classroom. I asked you to let me go, but you refused to move, which made me do my homework all night in the classroom.

When I met you, you were very fierce and bad, but later I found out that you are very good. If you think about it carefully, you are actually Xie Mingjun whether you are good or bad.

I love you too.

You took a box of things from me when you left, and a box of things from you when I left, I hope you don't mind.

I have packed everything at home and wrapped it in a dustproof cloth. You don't have to come back to clean up often, and you don't need to call the housekeeping aunt.It's inconvenient to take my things away, so don't lose them to me, I've sealed them up.

In my absence, may you be brave, may you be safe, and may you have no suffering.

(The letter paper has sprayed your fragrance secretly, do you still smell it after smelling it)

——To Girlfriend Xie Mingjun]

Xie Mingjun pinched the card and was speechless for a long time. She looked at it repeatedly, picked it up and sniffed it, and could only smell the milky fragrance of the big white rabbit.

She took out her phone.

During this period of time, the time difference between the two places caused them to reply to messages in a confused manner. Every time Dongyin would seriously tell her that the work was going well, but she was wrapped up in the fear of parting and did not say a word of congratulations.

Xie Mingjun put the card away and put it in the box. There was also a coin inside, a one-dollar coin. It didn't look very new, and the date of manufacture was ten years ago.

She couldn't read what it meant until she picked up the coin.

There was also a note on the back, and Dong Yin wrote the words very small: [The coin you gave me before, let me make a wish on the turtle in the wishing pool. It's good. 】

Xie Mingjun put the letter paper back into the box, and she searched the house. She used to have a strong desire to shop and bought everything. The house was full of luxury goods she bought. She couldn't figure out what Dongyin took away.

She came back and put the box into the drawer, this drawer is usually used by Dongyin, now there are a bunch of boxes in it, inside are finger cots, small toys, and everything else is bought by Dongyin.

Xie Mingjun took the box to read.

It said: [Remember to buy the things I sent you, I'm so upset about killing myself, I want you to kill me. 】

Xie Mingjun laughed.

She was the first who didn't want Dongyin to study abroad, she was the first to study abroad, and she was the one who couldn't stand Dongyin leaving in the end.

I'm so selfish.

Xie Mingjun thought, she wrote so seriously and said goodbye so seriously, but I pretended not to know, pretended not to hear, even now I still feel that she should not leave, should not leave me.

"laugh."

Xie Mingjun lay on the sofa, she looked at the ring on her fingertip.

Then, without realizing it, tears were falling, and she raised her hand to cover her face.

What am I thinking?

How could Dongyin not want me?

She cleaned the house clean just to come back better.

·

When leaving, the rain stopped and the road was wet. Xie Mingjun went to the airport with an umbrella. She sent a message to Chu Ning'an, saying that there was something at school and it was too late to meet.

She bought a plane ticket and flew directly abroad. When boarding the plane, she turned the ring on her finger to look at the small words on the inside.

"lifetime with you"

·

The first year was accompanied by someone for half a year, but it passed quickly.In the second year, the overseas branch grew rapidly, and she was so busy that she turned around very quickly. In the third year, she was busy graduating... not so fast.

Looking back, life has become boring. There is a saying that is good, people who have tasted the sweetness, except for a new taste, it is difficult to go back and suffer.

After being immersed in the sweetness of being in love, and then being alone, life will become very difficult.

In the past three years, she seldom went back. She only returned to China during the Chinese New Year and when she had to come back to deal with work. Usually, she stayed abroad.

"Xie Mingjun, let's go play together. I see that you never go out for leisure. You are about to graduate. Go to the bar for a drink." The Chinese classmate called her.

Xie Mingjun replied: "I'm not going, I want to go back to my country."

"Hey, if you didn't talk about work every day, I thought your family was strictly controlled." The friend said.

Xie Mingjun stopped and said, "Indeed, my girlfriend is strict."

"...Ah? Do you have a date?" The friend looked at her in surprise, not very convinced, "It can't be an excuse, I haven't seen you have any hobbies in the three years of studying, you are really clean and self-sufficient."

Xie Mingjun didn't say much, she stretched out her finger, wearing a thin gold ring on her middle finger, and after she finished speaking, she took the textbook and left.

There is a sense of strangeness in saying the word girlfriend.

She stopped and looked outside the school. She said that time passed in a blink of an eye, but everything in her heart and body reminded her that three years is a long time.

Xie Mingjun doesn’t have any hobbies. He used to know how to play and spend money. In the past three years, he has developed a habit. He likes to collect records, especially old records, such as "Yesterdayoncemore" and "BrotherLouie" ...Every song is very classic, but unfortunately, no matter how old the record is, the feeling of singing it will not be unpleasant.

There are holidays every year, when returning to China, Xie Mingjun will go to the school where Dongyin is studying for graduate school, walk from the south gate to the north gate, and stand under the plane tree in a daze when he has nothing to do.

At that time, she came to wait for Dongyin to finish class when she got off work early, and Dongyin would wait for her at the door of the company when she finished class early, and they would buy vegetables together. ear.

Time will dilute many unforgettable things, and it is such a small thing that can be mentioned inadvertently that can always be kept in the heart. Every time the heart is accidentally touched, the string will break, and there will be a faint pain.

Human memory is limited, and many things will be gradually forgotten. Nothing can seal the memory forever. Even the knowledge that has been reviewed will gradually disappear in the mind because of new things.

In fact, I can also feel that she is slowly forgetting.

If you don't often put this name on your mouth, it will be difficult to say it again.

Xie Mingjun sat for a while and walked back. Coincidentally, she had just walked a few steps when she met a familiar face, not an acquaintance, but Dong Yin's former mentor.

The instructor took the initiative to call her and said, "Xie Mingjun?"

"Huh? Hello." Xie Mingjun was stunned for a moment, and shook hands with him.

The instructor said: "Before I always saw you coming to school to wait for Dongyin. Thinking about it, it was a few years ago. Time flies so fast."

Xie Mingjun nodded.

The instructor asked again: "Did you go abroad later?"

"Yes, I studied abroad later, and I plan to graduate recently. I guess I will do a blog again." Xie Mingjun talked about his own development.

"That's right, both of you are working hard. There are not many young people who can work as hard as you. It's really good." The mentor looked at her with approval.

The two walked along the forest road, the instructor was very impressed with Dong Yin, the two chatted, talking about the past.He said that after Xie Mingjun left, Dongyin worked very hard. When others memorized one book, she memorized two books. I told her to relax, but she told me that my girlfriend is also working hard, and I can't lag behind. Hey, I thought she was too tight at that time, and it was the first time I thought, what are you doing so hard at a young age. "

Xie Mingjun recalled, and said in a gentle voice: "She said that opportunity was rare, and she said that she was too far behind when she became a monk halfway through."

"Opportunities are hard to come by..." The instructor sighed, looked at Xie Mingjun and said: "She has worked hard, and you as family members have also worked hard. I didn't want to recommend her at the time. She is too young. I was afraid that she would not be able to endure hardship, and she could not Contact home..."

"Teacher..." Xie Mingjun stopped, and she apologized first, and said, "You just said that I am... a family member?"

"Isn't it a family member?" The instructor wondered, "I often saw Dongyin playing with the ring on her finger, and asked me if I could wear the ring and dye my hair when I entered the translation department."

Xie Mingjun stood on the road, listening to the breeze blowing by her ears, and the noise of shoes falling on the leaves, she stammered and said: "Yes, I, our family members are very supportive, this is not an individual If she can contribute to the country, our family will be very proud."

As she spoke, she added seriously, "Really."

"Hahahaha." The instructor laughed.

Xie Mingjun pinched the ring on his finger, turned it gently, and asked: "It is very hard to do translation. She used to put a few books at home, and the computer had to be turned on to check the documents. She always had to remind her Time and time again, she always refused to listen and insisted on finishing the translation first."

The instructor said, "You want to ask her if it's hard there?"

"...Damn, you found out all of this." Xie Mingjun smiled embarrassedly.

"Life should be good, but work is tiring, but this is inevitable, just like going up the stairs. You have to keep going up. If you want to reach a high place, you must pay and it will definitely be hard."

"Yes, I don't know if she is obedient, whether she has a balance between work and rest. I used to cook for her at home, but she doesn't know if she will eat something good outside. She is too stingy with herself, okay Give it all to others..."

"So, only people like her can achieve great things. You are also good. Now I have to take over Jundi's class. I remember that when the school bought a water dispenser, Dongyin would point to me and say, Teacher, this is my girlfriend. The product developed by the team. The little girl looks very smug."

Xie Mingjun smiled: "Now I am in charge of the overseas branch."

Chatting, chatting, the road came to an end, and when we reached the school gate, Xie Mingjun wanted to chat for a while, but he was afraid of disturbing others, so he was hesitating whether to open his mouth to invite guests to dinner.

The instructor took the initiative to say, "Go to the classroom to see?"

"Okay." Xie Mingjun agreed.

On weekends, the school is full of people, laughing and discussing academics. The tutor opened the door and turned on the light on the wall, but there was no one in the classroom.

They stood at the podium and talked, talking about the latest social development, how important diplomacy is, and the development of the country.

No matter who is mentioning their own country, they will be serious when they mention current affairs.

Xie Mingjun said, "May I trouble you with something."

"Tell me." The tutor asked.

"If you have a chance to meet her, just give me a word, don't say how I am, just say...the family is fine."

The instructor said: "I may not have a chance, but you can tell her in person." His voice was gentle, "Thank you for your hard work."

After chatting for a long time, it was dark when we went back.

Xie Mingjun opened the car door, she was sitting in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel, her eyes fell on the ring of her middle finger, she raised her hand, and kissed gently, at that moment, her heart was beating violently and her blood was hot.

She was driving and received a call from the secretary. She didn't say much, but asked the secretary to finish the procedure early, and she planned to go back to the domestic headquarters.

"What about the headquarters?" the secretary asked.

Xie Mingjun said: "Who would dare not let me come back now?"

Full of confidence.

"Okay, I'm going to the company now."

Xie Mingjun drove back to the old house, her father's mansion.

Mr. Xie was having dinner. When he saw her come back, Mr. Xie was overjoyed. He hurriedly said to Aunt Lin: "Get two more dishes." Then he asked Xie Mingjun with a smile, "Don't tell me in advance when I come back, so I can prepare food in advance." Let Aunt Lin cook two dishes."

"I didn't plan to come back today. I have something to do on the way." Xie Mingjun took off his coat and hung it on the hanger. She went to pour a cup of tea first, with a smile on her face, she seemed to be in a good mood.

Mr. Xie asked, "Have you met your friends today?"

Xie Mingjun has been developing abroad in the past few years. When she comes back, she will not do anything other than meet friends, and she rarely even goes home.

"No, I'm going to Dongyin School." Xie Mingjun said.

"Huh?" Mr. Xie turned his head to look at her. He hadn't heard this name for a long time, two or three years, enough for one person to forget.

When he was about to speak, Aunt Lin came out with a plate of shredded pork with green peppers. Aunt Lin said, "You two eat first, and I'll go get it later. If you want to drink, I happened to bring fresh peanuts from my hometown and give them to you." Make a plate."

Xie Mingjun nodded and opened the gift box next to the sofa. She looked at Mr. Xie, "Have a drink?"

"Okay." Mr. Xie smiled.

Both glasses were filled with wine, Xie Mingjun was holding chopsticks, she was eating food, Mr. Xie was gratified and looked at her at the same time.

When Aunt Lin brought over the peanuts, Mr. Xie said, "Your Uncle Nan's son is also studying in your school. If you have nothing to do, you can make an appointment for dinner and get in touch so we can help each other."

When Mr. Xie said it, he kept looking at Xie Mingjun, which seemed to imply her.

Xie Mingjun ate the food and asked, "How old are you?"

"24, just one year younger than you." Mr. Xie said, taking a sip of wine in a leisurely manner, observing Xie Mingjun's emotions all the time.

"I'm already 24, whether I have long hands or long feet, we need to help each other. I can live well in the past two or three years, but he can't? Or do you want him to join the company? I will give up the overseas position to he."

Mr. Xie laughed, "Hahahaha, even if they keep talking nonsense, it doesn't matter if they don't want to know each other. You're still young."

Xie Mingjun took another sip of his wine, "I'm serious, if you like him, I'll give him my seat, and I plan to come back."

Mr. Xie frowned, feeling that he didn't understand Xie Mingjun's words, "Mingjun, if you don't like it, I will reject him now, don't get angry with Dad, come back after a long time."

Xie Mingjun laughed: "What's the trouble with me?"

She was a little speechless, and Mr. Xie couldn't understand. He didn't know what Xie Mingjun was going to do. It was a good thing for Xie Mingjun to come back, but now he doesn't want Xie Mingjun to come back. It has also become the main sales place, I plan to hand over several overseas companies to you, and other shareholders also think so..."

"That would be great. If you hand over the domestic branch to me, I believe the shareholders will agree. Next week, you will have a meeting to make this matter public." Xie Mingjun said.

"Master Ming!" Mr. Xie raised his voice.

On the surface, he said it well, but in fact, there was a fire in his heart.

Looking at each other, Xie Mingjun held the cup and took a sip, resting his chin on the back of his hand, "Isn't it what you said at the beginning, I will work hard, and you will give me the company. Now I have finished the overseas company, so what are you doing?" Is it? Of course, I didn't ask you to give me the company now, but I can always have the CEO position at the headquarters, right?"

It's easy for her to turn back her current strength. If Mr. Xie stops her, everyone else will probably wonder if he deliberately exiled Xie Mingjun abroad. How could he treat his daughter like this?

Mr. Xie drank a glass of wine, he refilled it, and said: "Mr. Ming, are you angry with Dad? You said you went to Dongyin School. How long has it been? Why do you still remember this grudge?"

Xie Mingjun looked at him, his lips moved.

"Is it you who bear the grudge?"

"What have you done yourself, don't you know? Didn't you target her at the beginning? Didn't you call her school to tell her she was gay, so that she had to come out in front of her tutor? You didn't put pressure on her in the company Is she so scared that she has a high fever and keeps talking nonsense? How powerful you are, how well you can hide, how vicious you are, you want to destroy her directly! If her mentor hinted at me today, I would still be blinded by you Drum!"

"Did I really want to be with Zou Yuxi at the beginning? Didn't you keep saying, keep saying, and keep saying that Zou Yuxi is a good man? You said that you understood his temperament, and that the two families could help each other. Otherwise, I would be with him Together? Later, when you said, "Just as long as you like it", it became that I love Zou Yuxi very much, and it became that you forgive me."

"Have you considered what I want? I just want someone to spend the rest of my life with me. I don't have so many pursuits. Even if I have pursuits, you can cut me off. You said let me go abroad, and I said If you don’t want to think about domestic development, you can find a way to stuff me in the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and after a long time, I will live the way you want.”

"You said that you want me to ascend to the high position of the emperor, but in reality, throw me abroad and give me an empty shell. Others start from the grassroots, and I start from scratch. Now I can come back, but you are blocking me. In the end, do you love me, or do you dominate my life for your own face, to satisfy your own vanity, and to become a good father in everyone's hearts. Listen to how many people praise you now, thank you director for your education .”

"Dongyin left, I hated her, I also hated myself for running out to study, but I hated myself even more, my powerless self, I wanted her to tell me everything, but I didn't take the initiative to ask her what she should say, Why does she have to tell me everything. Do you want her to tell me Xie Mingjun, your father doesn't like me very much, and he always wants to destroy me? "

"When I was young, my mother was sick, so you sent me to my aunt. She scolded me every day, and you acted as if you hadn't seen it. For the sake of face, you treated their family as a benefactor. Did you ever think that I would not? Don’t you want to see their family members? I went to college, and you arranged it clearly, which major I studied and who I fell in love with. When you are confused and depressed, you just say, Mingjun, Dad will give you money. From the beginning to the end In the end, you always said that as long as I like it, but when did you really ask, Mr. Ming, what do you like?"

"As a father, you want me to be good, but what about me, am I trying to balance family affection and love? You can just say what is good, but I hold back until I have the ability to tell you? Because you are my father, It’s fine if you hurt me, and if I do something that hurts you a little, it’s treason.”

Xie Mingjun looked at him, lowered her head again, and let go of her clenched fists. After all, these words were kept in her heart and she didn't say a word, like all children who quarrel with their parents.

Parents will say "you go find better parents", but children seldom say "you go, I want to find better parents". Parents talk about their love noblely, but they are very Don't think about whether this love is just right or not.

At this moment, Xie Mingjun swallowed the words into her stomach, like a calm and stable adult, she raised the cup in her hand and said with a smile: "You don't engage in the succession of the throne, I know you love me and want to I will have someone to help me in the future, I understand. When Dongyin comes back, she will become stronger and I will be able to secure my position. At that time, you go out and brag, oh, my two daughters are so powerful, one protects the country and the other protects the family. I am a winner in my life. You are at the forefront of the world, how many people would not envy you."

Mr. Xie looked at Xie Mingjun in surprise, he knew his own daughter very well, and if he spoke like this suddenly, was he really mocking him?

No matter how he looked, he could only see the smile on Xie Mingjun's face.

This feeling is very familiar, he looks at Xie Mingjun as if he is looking at himself.To put it bluntly, this is called judging the situation, being able to speak patiently, she has matured, and it is hypocrisy to say it is ugly, she is an old fox.

"What are you thinking about?" Xie Mingjun touched him with a wine glass, "Dad, drink."

Mr. Xie looked at it for a long time and said, "This wine..."

"It's not as good as the wines in your collection, but the taste is acceptable. Try it." Xie Mingjun said with a smile, he did it first, and then ate slowly, "You don't have to worry about me, now I am doing well. Yes, I will take your place sooner or later."

Afterwards, Xie Mingjun didn’t want to talk about it with him anymore, and felt that the smell of copper on his father exuded an unbearable decay. She didn’t reject the smell of copper on others, everyone had it, and she herself Yes, but her dad smelled particularly bad.

Mr. Xie said: "I haven't believed it for three years, you really think..."

"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I believe it." Xie Mingjun looked at him seriously, "Wherever I am is her home, and she will definitely come back."

"During this time, I have been working hard and have been refusing to stop. I am afraid that one day I will not be able to reach that height."

Xie Mingjun said stubbornly: "I believe she will stand tall, and she doesn't need others' evaluation."

While drinking the wine, it flowed into his stomach, Mr. Xie didn't taste it, and Xie Mingjun walked upstairs after eating, the smile on his mouth didn't stop.

At night, Mr. Xie couldn't sleep. He put on his coat and went to the balcony. Mr. Xie Mingjun also came out to blow the air, pressing his hands on the railing, as if he was blowing away the smell of alcohol on his body, and seemed to be thinking of someone in the distance.

Mr. Xie thinks that her father and daughter are very similar. He also thought about his dead wife in the early years. He couldn't reconcile with himself, and he was always thinking about it.I don't think so much, Xie Mingjun is more like a dead wife, with a lonely and brave heart.

During the drunken night, their father and daughter got along much more harmoniously than imagined. Logically speaking, they should have had a quarrel, but now they firmly blocked the words in their throats, and then digested each other.

He didn't know what a disappearing person would develop into, and he still stubbornly felt that the choice he gave Xie Mingjun was the best.It's just emotion, a little doubt, if I only care about giving her money.

Xie Mingjun looked at the stars in the sky, twinkling and twinkling, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she took another sip of wine and drank until she was slightly tipsy tonight.

·

As for what he said at the wine table, Mr. Xie forgot all about it when he turned around. In retrospect, he just felt that his daughter was hurt by this feeling. With Xie Mingjun's character, he couldn't say it bluntly.

However, Mr. Xie did not expect the slap in the face to be so fast.

On the weekend, he pushed several invitations and sat on the balcony at home to bask in the sun. He felt that the father and daughter hadn't gotten along much in the past two years, which led to ideological differences, and he wondered how to ease them.

Aunt Lin brought a cup of tea over, and said, "The tea sent by Ning'an in early spring is very fragrant. You can try it. When Mr. Ming wakes up, you can go out for a stroll with Mr. Ming."

Mr. Xie responded, and just as he was about to drink, the news broadcast began to broadcast the picture of the talks between the two countries, and the gringo babbled a lot.

He scolded, "This group of dogs really treat themselves as human beings, they dare to challenge us with anything."

Aunt Lin also read and echoed, "It's just that they take themselves too seriously. I read on the Internet that our country has grown, and they are afraid to provoke them again and again."

Mr. Xie nodded and said, "This leader has done a good job."

The male leader's voice was sonorous, unhurried, full of energy, followed by the diplomatic translator, the interpreter was a female voice, soft and tough, and powerfully reproduced the speech made by the leader just now.

Even if she speaks a foreign language, she is neither humble nor overbearing, and she is not petty at all. She reprimands every sentence, which makes people feel very refreshed.

He spoke for more than ten minutes, speaking fluently and with momentum.

Mr. Xie thought about it for a while, feeling very familiar, as if he had been bullied like this before, he got up curiously, walked from the balcony to the living room, and stood behind the sofa to take a closer look.

In the camera, a short-haired woman in a suit is facing the camera. She is sorting out the shorthand in hand, staring at the opposite with a pair of big eyes, her eyes are firm and sharp, and her words are strong enough, "...Thisismystrength, frommycountry..."
