[Brother Wars] A Midsummer's Dream

When the countdown time reached 1, Xia Meng's body was torn violently and fell on the cold balcony.

The hands of the clock ticked and turned, from static to dynamic, but her whole body fell into a dead silence.

There were occasional sounds of cicadas and frogs in summer. She lay motionless on the ground, staring blankly at the familiar and unfamiliar environment, unable to adapt to such a sudden change now, as if something was tearing her heart, sad and sad, tears But it took a step ahead of the brain, overflowed the eye sockets, and flowed out.

The past three years seemed like a well-woven midsummer dream. After she broke in for no reason and enjoyed the beauty, she had to wake up and face reality.She has never had such a day, and she hopes that all the time can stop, even a little bit, so that she can be closer to them, and even closer, so that she will never forget.

**

After three days of rest, Xia Meng appeared in the company, stared at everyone's complicated eyes, and knocked on the boss' door.

Resignation is something she has decided on these days.Don't think that she doesn't feel pain in her heart now, it's just that she suppresses everything in the corner of her heart and seals it up. She is always the one who can face all the strong people, but she really doesn't want to stay in this no longer familiar place. up.

Maybe, she needs a long time to adjust, or she can come out quickly.

Xia Meng took a cardboard box to pack her desk, because she was a designer and had the most information on brushes, she didn't want to take them all away, so she simply kept all the ones she thought were unnecessary.

"Xiaomeng, you didn't resign because of Yandong's affairs, right? Aren't men like that, don't pay too much attention to it." It was Xia Meng's female colleague who spoke, but her eyes kept He glanced straight at Xia Meng's face.

"My resignation has nothing to do with anyone. I plan to go back to my hometown."

"Okay, I know I know." The man had a look of disbelief, but he joked on his mouth: "By the way, what kind of makeup do you use? You look beautiful today, and it looks so natural that it looks like It’s as if you haven’t painted it at all, you shouldn’t have plastic surgery? And your hair, when did you get the hair extensions? The quality is very good!”

Xia Meng didn't understand why she still kept the appearance of that world when she returned to the present world. Perhaps, this was a gift from 5438's conscience discovery?But she really doesn't care.

"Oh, don't you know, there is a micro-cosmetic salon across the corner. It was discounted a few days before the opening. It only costs 280. It also includes breast augmentation and body care, and the hair is also done for free with the card given by the restaurant." Xia Meng Smiling without blushing and heartbeat, she was very sure, "I didn't believe it at the time, but look at me now? Even if I went to country H for plastic surgery, it shouldn't be so fast, right? Look, there is not even a scar."

The female colleague was dumbfounded, and she was really moved by Xia Meng's clean and flawless face, "There is no scar..." The female colleague who was secretly listening to the conversation between the two had already started whispering to each other and asking if anyone knew Xia Meng's face. It's the micro-plastic surgery parlor I was talking about.

As if being instigated by someone, a female colleague looked at Xia Meng and said, "I said Xia Meng, you are not lying to us, are you? Everyone passes there every day and has never seen it before."

Xia Meng packed up her things and gave her a charming smile, "Oh? Then it's none of my business now."

Leaving a group of big eyes and small eyes behind, Xia Meng walked out of the company building with her belongings in her arms.The moment she stood on the side of the road under the sun and watched the traffic passing by, she felt that she had never felt so lonely again, and her heart started to twitch again.She raised her hand and pressed it, waking up from the memory. Just as she was about to cross the road, someone grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

Xia Meng frowned and turned back, and said coldly, "Let go."

Suddenly facing Xia Meng's beautiful face, Yan Dong's expression was unpredictable. He only stared at her for a long time before pursing his lips and popping out a few words, "Xia Meng, are you because of me..."

Xia Meng was not in the mood to talk to him, "I said let go, don't you understand?"

Yan Dong has already regretted what happened last night in his heart. He shouldn't have boarded the boat with Linna when she found him because he couldn't stand the temptation. If he had known Xia Meng would come back, he might have... the bottom of his heart He made countless excuses for himself, looked into Xia Meng's eyes, and still wanted to defend himself, "I am not what you think Lina is, we have only met twice, and I don't love him at all, I like him It's always been you!"

Yandong didn't know why, but he just didn't want Xia Meng to leave. He knew that if he let go this time, he would never see her again. It wasn't that he didn't like Xia Meng, on the contrary, he liked the girl with a good personality. , and pure woman, is more real than many women in this impetuous society, and therefore, he doesn't want to change her so easily, he has desires, but every man needs to solve his physical needs, he doesn't want to go with her It was so fast, so I had to find Linna who always gave him hints.

"Oh, I got it." Xia Meng stretched her arm again. For the first time, she felt depressed without the help of the system, and couldn't even release her explosive power. She held back the nausea in her heart and said, "Thank you for your liking, I'm leaving, can you let me go?"

Seeing this, Yan Dong became upset, "Xia Meng, who in this society is still pure before marriage? I've only dated her twice, can you please stop making such unreasonable troubles!"

The thief shouted "Catch the thief", Xia Meng saw Yan Dong's face for the first time, and suddenly felt that she had liked him because of a good first impression, she was blinded by a pair of titanium alloy dog ​​eyes!

"First of all, please make it clear that we are just colleagues. What qualifications do you have to tell me what to do here and let me listen to you? Again, I did think you were a nice person before, and I was a little tempted by you, but that didn't It's not like and love, just like I like good-looking stars. In the end, we are not people in the same world at all, I have people I love, please respect yourself!"

"Xia Meng! You..."

Xia Meng took out her mobile phone, dialed the number of the police station, and said to him lightly, "If you don't let go, I will call the police!"

Seeing that Yan Dong still didn't let go, the police station got connected, and she replied: "Hi, I was pestered by a man I don't know on the road in front of the xx building, he grabbed me and wouldn't let me go, I said don't listen to anything..."

"Xia Meng, you're really good!" Hearing this, Yan Dong decisively let go, gritted his teeth, turned and entered the building.

Being smeared with bad luck, Xia Meng took a shower as soon as she got home, and booked a ticket back to her hometown online. After thinking about it, she sent a long letter to her sister's mailbox, turned off the computer, crawled on the The table was motionless.

The next afternoon, Xia Meng got on the train back to her hometown.

The 6-hour drive is not long or short.After getting off the train at 8:[-] p.m., she got off the bus with her bag on her back and saluted, and walked step by step along the street lights towards her former home, which was both familiar and unfamiliar.

She hasn't been back here for many years. Since those things happened, she never wants to come back here again, but when Fleeting Time is still there, she will send someone to help clean it, but after he passed away, no one followed him She mentioned it.

For her, if this home does not have parents, mothers and sisters, then it is not called home, and it doesn't matter if you come back or not, but in those days in another world, she learned what it means to truly let go.When your heart is full of dark memories enough to get rid of the past, and you have people you want to cherish and care about, you will become truly strong.

She thought, she still remembered when she was a child, the warm pink and white roses that surrounded the courtyard... When she walked to the courtyard outside her home, the salute in her hand fell to the ground because of shock.

That big piece is on under the yellowish street lamp, is it... Qiangwei?She approached in disbelief, the scent of roses filled her nostrils, she touched a leaf in a daze, it was slightly cool, but it had the touch of the true veins of the plant, it was not fake!

She hid her rapid heartbeat, and trotted towards the courtyard gate with chaotic steps.

There is a faint light shining from the inside to the outside of the half-covered courtyard door. There are many different kinds of flowers blooming in the courtyard. Two hanging baskets are swaying under the banyan tree on the side, as if someone has just sat there.A pear wood table and four chairs are placed beside it. There is a tea table and several tea utensils on the table. There is still a trace of smoke coming out of the teapot, and scattered flower petals fall on it, adding to the mood. The peaceful atmosphere after being indifferent to fame and fortune.

Near the corner of the yard, a wooden kennel was built. Xia Meng just glanced at it, then walked towards the inner door.

The key in her hand didn't work, and the door was pushed open. When she saw that the room was completely new, as if someone had lived there, she almost stopped the thinking of her brain.She couldn't imagine who would have lived here, even her relatives, who were driven out of here with the help of Fleeting Years, who would it be...?

She stepped into the door, stared at the wooden floor under her feet, as if thinking of something, took off her shoes, touched the wallpaper that was no different from what she remembered but was obviously new, and she saw the family portrait of her family of 4 hanging on the wall .

Not broken, but new as if it had never been removed.

She looked around in the living room, then turned around and went to her parents' bedroom, her sister's bedroom, even the kitchen and bathroom, like a child who discovers new things, and can always find the good memories that were lost somewhere, Until she pushed open the door of her room... In an instant, the room was covered with photos, which made her burst into tears.

It was a photo of her and her brothers. There were group photos of everyone, group photos in twos and threes, and secretly taken photos that she didn't even know about. Each photo was accompanied by a description in the handwriting of different brothers.

She looked at them one by one, not missing any of them.

"Azusa is so bad, hit me again!" This is a photo of Tsubaki being taught by Azusa... "Lyusheng helped me choose a hairstyle and re-do it, does it look good?" This is a coquettish selfie.

"The newly learned dishes, I want to cook for you." This is a photo of You Jing cooking in an apron.

"Damn Fengdou, I must make him look good next time!" This is a picture of Yusuke and Fengdou when they were robbing food at home.

"I am the eternal queen!" This is a photo taken when Guang was wearing a gorgeous British-style skirt.

"The championship trophy for the three consecutive championships is here for you." This is a photo of Subaru when he won the award after the basketball game.

"Do you like these flowers?" This is a photo of Kiori holding a bouquet of flowers when she took a photo.

"Miss you." This is a photo of a cherry blossom tree, but the scene in it is the place where she used to learn the tea ceremony with Yachen. "Are you satisfied with what you see~?" The moment water was poured on him.

"Are you blinded?" This is a photo of the triplets playing cosplay and wearing military uniforms.

"I'll wait for you instead." This is a picture of Azusa taking off her glasses, staring down at the gift she gave her.

"This is the little kitten born by the kittens." This is the cat that Liu Sheng and her fed together back then, and it has already given birth to kittens.

"I graduated from high school this year, my brothers attended my graduation ceremony, Mengmeng, I miss you~" This... is a photo she took after she left!

Xia Meng didn't dare to imagine how these photos interspersed with her leaving appeared here. It wasn't until she opened a diary on the table that she vaguely understood what was going on, but she couldn't stop the tears in her eyes. of liquid falling.

There is a photo in the diary, all 13 brothers are wearing pure white dresses standing in front of the decorated church, each holding a bouquet of flowers, smiling at the camera.

There are a few words written on the back of the photo.

"Xia Meng, even if we can't be in the same time and space, please do well and live happily ever after."

Xia Meng took the photo and went to the window, looked at the moon in the sky, smiled and shed tears.

On a midsummer night, the wind blows gently, the pink and white roses in the courtyard wall tremble and rustle, and a faint fragrance comes, just like this dreamlike summer, real and illusory.

The prosperity is like smoke, and the years are like ink.

Xia Mengmeng, she will definitely live a good life...
