If the world had no daylight
Chapter 93 The Silent Funeral
The rain lasted intermittently for seven days, and it never cleared up.
Evening is not allowed in this weather, the sky is gray and the sun is sinking.
Holding a black umbrella, Bai Tian sent away the last person in the cemetery who came to attend the funeral.
He was Ye Li's partner, he hesitated to speak several times before leaving, but in the end he said nothing, patted the person standing in front of the tombstone, and left quietly.
After Bai Tian saw him off, he stood at the gate of the cemetery for a while.
The rain seemed to be getting smaller. She put away her umbrella and looked up at the sky where the sun was fading.
Such cloudy days became more and more unbearable for her as the years went by.
Bai Tian always thought that he was used to it.
Get used to the "everyone goes away" thing.
But it turned out that she was still afraid of the rain.
A photo from a selfie perspective is posted on the tombstone, and the smiling person looks very young.
This is Xu Lin's last wish.
She said that she has never taken any good-looking photos in her life, and it is not too much to ask for a beauty filter after death.
When Ye Li saw this video, his already calm expression collapsed into shapeless, he covered his eyes, and cried hoarsely while holding Xu Lin's cell phone.
Bai Tian could only sit on the bench outside the ward, not disturbing his rare venting.
Most of the time, Ye Li is calm and sober.He handled Xu Lin's funeral in an orderly manner, and also took care of the company's business affairs.It wasn't even until the day of the funeral that his partner got the news.
It was a deserted and silent funeral. Xu Lin and Ye Li had been wandering for many years. In his memory, he had never seen any relatives.
So there were not even ten people who came to the funeral.
Except for his two partners in the company and college classmates who had a good relationship, the only ones left were Ye Wan and Zhao Yuelan, and even Wen Xinlei also came.
As for Xu Lin's relatives and friends, Ye Li didn't find any of them.
It was at this time that he realized that his mother had lived so lonely all these years.
Whenever he called back, Xu Lin always smiled and chatted with him about family affairs. Today, Mrs. Zhang next door asked her to dance in the square dance, and tomorrow, a group of little old ladies formed a sunset group to travel, as if she lived every day. It must be full and exciting.
But in fact, she doesn't even have a confidant.
Before the funeral, Ye Li flipped through the address book on her mobile phone over and over again, only to find out in despair that she even saved the phone number of the wholesaler in the vegetable market, even if the other party didn't remember whether her surname was Xu or Xu.
There was only one number that didn't have a note written on it, Ye Li dialed it hopefully, when he heard the word "empty number", he couldn't bear it anymore, squatted on the floor and started crying.
He found that he didn't know her at all.
How she lived these years, what she wanted most, what she looked forward to most, and what she was most afraid of, he had no idea.
Obviously they are the closest people in this world, but he didn't even notice that she was sick for half a year.
No matter how successful his career was, the person he wanted to support left without even enjoying a single blessing.
She is gone.
This time she really left.
The money he earned couldn't buy her life back.
"Ah Yuan, it's getting dark."
Ye Wan called out, and the person standing in front of the tombstone finally woke up.
He wiped his face, nodded silently, turned and walked down the stone steps.
The rain started falling again at some point, and Ye Wan, who was following behind him, stepped forward and put the umbrella on top of his head.
The two stood side by side on the long and narrow steps, walking down from the top of the mountain step by step.
When he was about to see the exit of the cemetery, Ye Li looked back for some reason.
The dwarf mountain on a rainy night is like a sleeping giant. It sleeps here forever and will never wake up again.
On the top of the mountain stood a figure standing under the tree, wrapped tightly in a black raincoat.
Ye Li vaguely thought it was a shorter tree, because the figure stood there straight, motionless.
Someone came from the front, Ye Li looked away, and saw a girl with short hair holding an umbrella standing in front, quietly waiting for him.
He looked at her for a long time, and waited for the sour and astringent tingling sensation to recede before walking towards her.
"Let's go," he told her.
The person holding the umbrella behind him stopped in place for a moment, finally lowered his eyes and followed.
On the way back to the city, the three of them couldn't hide their tiredness and fell asleep in the car.
The driver was a driver sent by Ye Li's company, he was a taciturn young man, he drove very steadily, and returned to the city smoothly.
Ye Wan asked him to stop in front of a restaurant, took two people out of the car, and then asked him to get off work.
"There is always something to eat." When she said that, Ye Li would not refuse.
He has always listened to Ye Wan's words, and from now on, only Ye Wan's words can be listened to.
Bai Tian put away the umbrella, shook the rainwater from it at the door of the restaurant, and put it into the umbrella bucket at the door.
She was about to enter the door, but Ye Li suddenly grabbed her arm and leaned towards him.
"Be careful of the water on the ground." After finishing speaking, he let go of his hand.
Only then did Bai Tian see the puddle of water on the ground clearly, and nodded.
The person on the side paused, and retracted the hand that had been stretched out without a trace.
On the way here, Ye Wan booked a private room. The three of them had no appetite, so they ordered a few light dishes and put down the menu.
She knew that Ye Li would never think of eating when he returned home. In just one week, he had already lost a lot of weight, and the only reason he was able to hold on without falling down was because the funeral affairs had not been dealt with yet.
Ye Wan didn't persuade him to rest, neither did Bai Tian.
They know too well how long it takes to digest this kind of thing, and they can only digest it alone.
Even if they only ordered a few dishes, the three of them could barely eat.Ye Li usually has the best appetite, but today he put down his chopsticks halfway through his meal, and his face didn't look very good.
"Are you going to the hospital?" Bai Tian was a little worried.
Ye Li shook his head at her, got up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
As soon as the door of the private room was opened and closed, there were only two people left at the dining table.
Ye Wan also put down her chopsticks and took a sip of warm lemonade.
The person on the opposite side was still eating slowly, and the chopsticks did not stop.
She put down the water glass, and finally said: "If you can't eat it, don't force it, it will hurt your stomach."
Bai Tian lowered his head, chewed and swallowed slowly, and then looked at her.
It was the first time in a week that they were alone.
Some tacit understanding exists in the air, without words or deeds.
They tacitly avoided contact, and during the seven days of darkness, they didn't even have a good conversation.
It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't.
So the agreement that night seemed to be forgotten, and no one mentioned it again.
Until now, someone finally broke the deadlock of silence.
Bai Tian put down his chopsticks, and said in a low voice, "I've already started to have a stomachache."
Ye Wan frowned, relaxed again, and sighed.Half helpless, half peace of mind.
"I'm still thinking, if you don't talk to me like this..."
Bai Tian lowered his eyes, looked at the half bowl of soup left in the bowl, and said suddenly, "I'm not afraid, and neither are you."
Ye Wan was startled for a moment, and finally supported her head and smiled, but it quickly faded away.
How selfish.
At this time, she was still thinking about how to hurt a person who was riddled with holes.
Ye Wan raised her eyes to look at her, and regained a little strength on that face to support her to walk on.
"Well, I'm not afraid," she replied.
Compared to being nailed to the sinner's pillar of shame and accepting the world's scolding, compared to losing her last relative, she is more afraid of her own world, and there is no day.
Just let her be selfish.
After the funeral, Bai Tian was finally able to go back to school for vacation.
The beginning of school has always been busy, she has piled up countless things to do, she has been lazy for the whole summer vacation, her body seems to be rusty, and now she starts to move.
Ye Wan is still elusive, busy with her ulterior affairs.But she can always find time to supervise Ye Li's meals and prevent him from losing weight.
They no longer meet alone or contact each other. Although there is no verbal agreement, they wait tacitly.
Wait for Ye Li's wound to heal before stabbing him.
How cruel this is, how tormenting Bai Tian's waiting will be.
It's like lying on a fire grill and roasting it over and over again, and it's like walking barefoot on the blade of a thousand swords.
But since she made the choice, she never thought of escaping the punishment she deserved.
This knife has been held in his hand for too long, sooner or later it will be inserted into Ye Li's body, no matter how it is.
Just not now.
The current Ye Li couldn't bear another straw that weighed on his shoulders.
The night before Teacher's Day, Bai Tian, who had just left school, received a strange call.
"My courier?" She was at a loss.
The other party confirmed again: "Excuse me, is this Ms. Bai Tian? The last number of the phone..."
After listening to Bai Tian, he replied: "I am right, please put it in the security room, I just got off work."
The person over there said with some embarrassment: "But this item must be signed in person, and it is a very valuable item."
Suppressing the doubts in her heart, she could only say: "Then please wait a moment, I will take a taxi and I will be there in about 10 minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Bai Tian stopped a taxi and went home.
Fortunately, there was no traffic jam on the road today, and it happened to be about ten minutes by the time I got home.
After paying the money, Bai Tian got out of the car and trotted into the community. Before he got close to the apartment building, he saw a pickup truck parked downstairs. Two tall young men in blue clothes were standing there, like Waiting for someone.
She walked over quickly, and a young man wearing glasses saw her and quickly asked, "Is that Ms. Bai Tian?"
"It's me." She took a breath and replied.
The man handed her a form and said to her: "Then please sign, the things are here."
Bai Tian took the list and looked up, only to see a long and big box, which made him feel even more strange.
"May I ask, who sent this? What's inside?" She was sure that she had never bought such a large item.
The young man wearing glasses took out a tablet computer and flipped through it, and replied, "It was customized by a customer named Xu Lin."
He looked up at Bai Tian, smiled and said, "It's a wedding dress."
