Chapter 42
After she finished speaking, she released one arm and lowered it, touched Wen Ning’s hand, hooked her little finger lightly, and pulled it.
This is what Wen Ning liked to do to her in the past.
Whenever the two of them made an agreement, they raised their little fingers and said together: The hook will not change for a hundred years. Then she would habitually scrape Wen Ning’s nose.
Wen Ning softened again.
From childhood to adulthood, Gu Chixi has always accommodated her. Sometimes, in retrospect, there are so many moments when she felt that she was being unreasonable, but Gu Chixi silently endured her, coaxed her, and never got bored.
Piece by piece.
Today is Gu Chixi’s birthday.
There are still three hours to go.
Relocate and relocate.
Wen Ning felt guilty and replied, “Okay.” She flexed her fingers and clasped the little finger firmly in her palm.
“Thank you wife…” Gu Chixi tilted her head and kissed her hair.
The lips touched the ear through the silky smooth hair, and couldn’t help kissing and kissing, slowly moving down along the auricle, to the back of the neck, felt Wen Ning trembling non-stop, and did not continue.
Wen Ning didn’t hide, but said, “Go to the balcony.”
“Um.”
The Mid-Autumn Festival is to admire the moon.
Cloudless tonight, the moon hangs diagonally in the southeast, as huge as a plate.
There are small round tables and stools on the balcony, several snowskin moon cakes and a large grapefruit are placed on the table, symbolically placed there, not eaten.
Wen Ning sat on the swing chair, shaking and shaking, Gu Chixi squeezed over and sat down next to her. She thought the man was going to sit on the swing, so she pointed her toes on the ground, steadied herself, and said, “You sit here, I’ll sit on the stool.”
Get up and go.
“Don’t—” Gu Chixi stretched his arms around her waist and hooked the person back, “Let’s sit together.”
“But it’s a bit crowded…”
The swing chair is round and not big. It is spacious enough for one person to sit alone, but it is a little reluctant for two people. But they are slender, and they can sit down even if they squeeze.
Gu Chixi moved to the side, hugged Wen Ning and leaned against him. The two were close to each other, which was quite comfortable. Wen Ning cooperated obediently, letting her play with her arms and head.
The night was dark and the surroundings were quiet.
Wen Ning looked at the moon and murmured, “The ancients all recited poetry when they admired the moon…”
“Do you know?”
“Of course,” Wen Ning raised his eyebrows, “Listen, cough, bed, front, Ming, Moon, light hahahahahaha …” Suddenly he was laughed at herself, Qiu Qianhuo shake, she subconsciously surrounded Gu Chixi neck.
Gu Chixi couldn’t help laughing, rubbed her earlobe with her fingertips, and then said, “It’s probably the frost on the ground.”
“Well, you go on, next sentence.”
“Look up at the bright moon?”
Wen Ning’s smile suddenly froze on her face, and after a long time, she whispered, “Looking down and thinking about my hometown…”
This is her hometown.
I miss not only my hometown, but also those who have passed away.
She thought of her parents.
In the past, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, parents would bring astronomical telescopes back to their hometowns. At night, everyone would sit on the roof and use the telescopes to look at the moon. Occasionally, I don’t go back to my hometown for two years, and I go to the balcony on the second floor.
Mom can make moon cakes filled with meat, which are better than the ones sold outside.
In recent years alone, she has no concept of festivals at all. Because of her work, the Spring Festival has been flying in the sky for three consecutive years, not to mention the Mid-Autumn Festival. After a long time, the emotions are buried deep in my heart and piled up into mountains.
This year is different.
When Gu Chixi came back, they were married and had a “family” relationship in the legal sense.
Although the relationship between the two is unspeakable, the tacit understanding that has been established for more than ten years has allowed each other to trust each other.
There is such a kind of warmth that family members accompany each other.
“Lime…”
“Um.”
“What’s wrong?”
“fine.”
Wen Ning hugged Gu Chixi’s neck tightly, and buried her face on her shoulder.
Gu Chixi stiffened, raised his hand and stroked her face, then changed the subject: “Is there any wine at home? Would you like to drink some?”
“OK.”
Thought that Wen Ning would refuse, but did not expect to agree without hesitation. She withdrew from her embrace, slipped into the room with her slippers on, and opened the door to go out.
Because of work, Wen Ning usually doesn’t drink alcohol, but she buys some and keeps them at home, so that she doesn’t want to drink but doesn’t have it. She went down to the first floor, opened the locker by the stairs, and rummaged, and a thin rectangular object fell out.
She picks it up.
is an album.
The cover of the hard shell paper is slightly yellowed, the corners are raised, and the logo that reads “2012 Los Angeles Autograph” is cracked, and the singer’s autograph is on it.
Wen Ning’s face changed slightly.
This is Gu Chixi’s favorite singer, but unfortunately he has passed away for several years.
As for this signed album…
Just a week after Wen Ning’s twentieth birthday, the singer released a new album, and the first stop will be in Los Angeles. At that time, when Gu Chixi was at work, Wen Ning skipped class to buy an album in the cold weather, and lined up to sign autographs for the singer. Because of the long queue, she stood in the cold wind for more than three hours before entering, and she caught a cold the next day after returning to school.
She bought more than 1,000 copies for sales, and only ten copies were signed for the singer in person.
She didn’t see Gu Chixi in those days. She wanted to give him a surprise when she got home on the weekend, but she didn’t expect to wait in an empty house.
Later, she contacted the support club and gave more than 1,000 albums to other fans, except for one signed version.
In the fall of the same year, the singer tragically died.
The album became out of print.
Wen Ning kept it all the time and didn’t throw it away. Occasionally, she tidied up the house and turned it over and stuffed it.
Seven years later, this gift can still be sent.
…
The swing chair squeaked and swayed, Gu Chixi tapped the ground with her toes, and caught a glimpse of Wen Ning’s return from the corner of the eye, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the wine from her hand and put it on the table.
“This is-”
She stared blankly at the album.
Wen Ning didn’t speak, she poured wine on her own, and the scarlet liquid was contained in a transparent glass, like a splendid ruby, shining brightly. She sat on the swing chair and took a sip of wine.
Gu Chixi glanced at her, put down the album, and squeezed the remaining glass of wine to sit beside her.
Wordless silence.
A cool breeze hit his face, stroking the shattered hair on his temples. Wen Ning took another sip of wine and put it in her mouth for a moment before swallowing, “I bought it with the first sign, I want to give it to you, but you are gone. I have been looking for you for a long time, but I can’t find it, so I put it at home.”
Her voice was so soft as if she was exhaling with breath, trying to keep calm, but there was a little trembling behind her.
Gu Chixi suddenly grabbed her hand.
“It shouldn’t be too late to send it now, right?” Wen Ning turned her head and smiled, the moonlight shining into her eyes.
These eyes are seductive, like roses with dew, charming, cold and beautiful, and they are breathtaking when raised and blinked.
“Ning Ning…” Gu Chixi whispered to her.
She smiled with crooked eyes, and interrupted briskly: “Autographed out-of-print album, do you like this gift?”
“…Well,” Gu Chixi smiled, “I like it very much.”
Wen Ning didn’t speak anymore.
The night vision without clouds is particularly good, the sky is light black, the moon is covered with a yellow halo, and the craters on the surface are vaguely visible, like a small piece of navy blue cloth burned by a cigarette butt.
Wen Ning drank the wine in the glass, poured it again, and drank it again soon after pouring it. Instead of pouring it, she didn’t know what to do or say, so she could only drink.
She doesn’t know how to drink, and her alcohol intake is not good. The wine is a bit astringent and slightly bitter in the mouth. For her, she is drinking medicine.
But this is nothing compared to the pain in my heart.
After two or three cups, my cheeks gradually warmed up, with a dry feeling, and I didn’t need to look in the mirror to know that it was red.
Once at home, she drank 19 degrees of sweet red, and she started to blush after half a cup. After two cups in a row, she became dizzy, and her whole body was hot. Her head seemed to be smashed by a heavy hammer, and she floated when she walked.
It feels good.
“Gu Chixi—” She looked at the moon and called her name.
“Um?”
The person beside her turned her head and saw that her cheeks were blushing and she frowned. Just as she was about to speak, Wen Ning spoke again.
“How have you been all these years?”
She was still looking at the moon.
Gu Chixi’s face changed slightly and whispered, “It’s okay.”
Wen Ning looked back, took a sip of wine, squinted and smiled: “Tell me about life in England.”
Gu Chixi was startled, “Which aspect?”
“It’s all right.”
“…”
Wen Ning smiled brightly, revealing a row of small white teeth.
Gu Chixi looked at Wen Ning’s eyes, and there seemed to be a stream of light in them. She could vaguely feel why Wen Ning asked these questions, but for herself, she wished she could erase all the memories of the past seven years.
But she said that she had to face Wen Ning directly.
“It often rains in the UK, and I don’t like the weather there very much…” Gu Chixi lowered his eyes, his voice was low, like a criminal explaining the process of committing a crime.
At the age of 23, she studied for a master’s degree in the United Kingdom, chose a business degree, and stayed there to work after receiving her degree.
At first she didn’t know where her future was.
Mother eats, drinks and plays every day, and doesn’t care about her at all. It’s amazing to say: go to your father’s branch, be good, behave better, and let him share more of your property in the future.
If you can’t go back home, you can’t meet the industry at home, and you can only rely on yourself abroad.
She considered confession.
But thinking that this is equivalent to being slaughtered by others, she is not reconciled. Later, she went to a large company in the UK and worked for five years, climbing from newcomer to management.
At that time, she thought that she would never come back, so she completely cut off all thoughts, forgot the past and Wen Ning, and stayed at ease to work and live locally. During the process, she was extremely painful. It was faith that temporarily saved her, but she was not a devout believer, and just wanted to find a sustenance for her troubled heart.
Unexpectedly, the death of her father brought hope to her life.
All sin begins with that man, and all suffering ends with that man…
Gu Chixi only talked about his studies.
She looked up at Wen Ning.
Wen Ning’s eyes were blurred, and her face seemed to turn redder, “Did you and Qiu Yiran meet in England?”
“…Um.”
“How did you meet?”
Originally wanted to know this.
Gu Chixi was slightly surprised, and seemed to understand something, and suddenly smiled, “Their school held a music festival, and I participated in the performance. After watching it, she went to the backstage to find me, and she got to know me like that.”
“Do you have a good relationship?”
“pretty good.”
“Oh.”
Wen Ning looked down at the red wine in the glass.
She is jealous of Qiu Yiran.
seven years…
If she knew where Gu Chixi was, the ends of the earth would chase after him, but this person seemed to have evaporated, leaving her no words, letting her suffer and despair.
“Ling Ning, I and Yi Zhan are not what you think—”
“What am I thinking?”
Wen Ning interrupted Gu Chixi angrily and looked at her coldly, “How many friends do you have to do with me? Why are you being so selfish? Let me tell you, Gu Chixi, I don’t care about you at all. , I’ll treat you as dead!”
The head is very dizzy, the wine is coming up, the cheeks are getting hotter and hotter, and the heat spreads from the forehead to the neck.
The emotions that were suppressed in the bottom of my heart burst out.
Eyes were sour, Wen Ning raised her head and took a gulp of wine, holding back her tears. She stared at the wine bottle on the table and reached for it.
The harsh words slashed through Gu Chixi’s heart like countless sharp knives, and there were bloodstains, blood dripped, and a violent pain surged through her limbs and bones. She shook her hand and almost lost her grip. cup.
Seeing Wen Ning picking up the wine bottle, she quickly grabbed her wrist, “Ling Ning, I can’t drink it anymore.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
“…”
Gu Chixi let go of her hand weakly, Wen Ning got up and got off the swing chair, sat on the stool, and poured herself a full glass of wine.
Bitterness trickled down his throat, softening his emotions a bit.
“I found your counselor, called all your classmates, asked them one by one, and then went to all the places you’ve been to, including the scenic spots we visited together… I thought it was my sudden confession that scared you, no The way to continue to be friends, that’s why you disappear, hide, so that I can’t find you…”
“My parents were deceived in investing, owed a lot of debt, sold houses and land everywhere, and came back to the highway and had an accident… At that time, I thought, if you were by my side, it would be fine, or even give me a call and let me I hear your voice…”
“I guess, you must hate me very much, disgust me, you treat me as a sister, and I actually think that way about you.”
Wen Ning turned her back to Gu Chixi, her voice hoarse, as if she was talking to herself.
She is drunk.
I have so much to say, I dare to say anything.
Gu Chixi stared at her back and muttered, “How can I hate you, how can I disgust you.”
– I can’t even be happy.
“But you just disappeared.” Wen Ning choked and got up.
Gu Chixi looked up at her, her lips opened and closed, and the hand holding the cup trembled uncontrollably, then she stood up, put the cup on the table, and hugged her head-on.
“Lime…”
“If one day you find out that I’m not as good as you thought, and I’m not the perfect ‘sister’ in your mind, and you find that I’m actually so ugly and shameful, what would you do?” Gu Chixi kissed her ear .
The words were full of deep meaning and anxiety.
Wen Ning was trembling, her mind was dizzy, she didn’t quite understand what this meant, her feet were weak, she fell into Gu Chixi’s arms completely, and mumbled vaguely: “Sister is sister…”
“Lemon?”
“…Um.”
Her face was hot, her breathing was burning, and she squinted and smiled as she spoke.
Knowing that she was drunk, Gu Chixi sighed helplessly, pulled one of her arms over his shoulders, helped someone into the room, carefully placed them on the bed, turned around and went to the balcony to pack up.
Pack up, it’s half past ten.
Wen Ning was lying on her back, her face and neck were covered with a hazy, bright pink, like peach blossoms in full bloom. She half-opened her eyes, as if she had no intention of going to sleep.
When the lights were turned off, the room fell into darkness.
“Why turn off the lights?”
Gu Chixi lay in the bed in the dark, turned sideways, and hugged Wen Ning’s waist, “Go to sleep.”
She seemed to be holding a fire.
“I haven’t finished my wine yet…” Wen Ning hummed.
The breath that he exhaled was very hot and smelled of alcohol, and Gu Chixi couldn’t help kissing. He held on to that piece of lips, thin and soft, which made him addicted for a while.
“Well-”
Wen Ning’s throat overflowed with a whimper. Although she was very conscious, her limbs were heavy and slow, and it was very difficult to move. She could only passively endure such enthusiasm.
Unconsciously, she relaxed, opened her mouth, and Gu Chixi took the opportunity to sneak in and plunder.
A cluster of flames sprang up.
Short breaths, short breaths, chaotic heartbeats. The beast in the cage is about to move.
“Lime…”
“Well.”
“I love you.”
There was a muffled voice in her ears, and Wen Ning only felt that she had fallen into the boiling water, floating up and down, and then it seemed to be roasted on a fire, very dry|hot.
Her sober consciousness told her that she could not continue, but her hands and feet did not obey.
Dreams flashed through her mind over and over again.
And the madness of the day.
All torture.
Gu Chixi stood up and climbed over her head, opened the bedside table, groped for a small square box following the darkness, and took it out.
Aware of the action, Wen Ning knew what this person was going to do, and gritted her teeth and squeezed out two words: “No…”
The speech was blocked.
…
The moon was high in the middle of the night, and the house was burning with fire.
