Chapter Nineteen: My Heart
After a night of wind and rain, countless flowers fell. The accumulated water merged into a river. The pink petals fell into the river and drifted with the current, forming a pink ribbon. It was so beautiful.
As the rain dries up, the short-lived beauty of "Luohong" also disappears in a hurry.
"Falling red is not a heartless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect the flowers." Its ending symbolizes a new beginning. It gave up the glamor that attracted everyone's attention, walked from the front to the backstage, and watered the roots in another way, unknown to the public.
Breeding life, giving up everything, just for the saplings to grow vigorously.
Isn't this mother? Ordinary and great.
Teng Ying lowered her head and sighed, recalling the tragedy of her parents' health, family pressure, and so on. In the final analysis, it was because she had failed to live up to expectations. Every time she thought of this, her heart felt like a knife, and she felt regretful.
can not breath.
Home is that place that used to be a bit boring, but now it is so far away, and the road back is long and bumpy.
At this time, all she could do was let this beauty linger for a while.
Suddenly, Meng Xi's voice came to my ears, "Teng Ying, what are you thinking about?"
Teng Ying immediately picked up the broom in her hand and swept the last bunch of flowers and leaves to the roadside, "Okay."
On the way, when no one was around, Teng Ying handed the letter written to Yan Yan to Meng Xi, "Disciple Meng, please."
Mengxi took the letter and said, "Don't worry." Then he whispered: "Write more flattering words to fool him and make the kid bleed more. Who will know whom after we get out?"
Teng Ying smiled bitterly and said, "It's inappropriate. I made it clear to him in the letter. He will never send letters again in the future."
"Hey, I really don't understand you. Are you afraid that he will pester you after you are released from prison? Don't worry, he doesn't have the courage, and he doesn't even look at who you are." Mengxi paused for a while and said: "Actually, you're big
Don’t worry, I think that kid has probably found out your details and wants to use your light to feel comfortable inside. If you don’t take it, you won’t get it for free.”
Teng Ying shook her head slightly, "I don't think it's good, forget it."
Seeing that it didn't make sense, Mengxi put the letter into his pocket and said, "Okay then."
Then he said: "By the way, my sister still needs your care."
"Okay, don't worry."
On the way back, they met Liu Yuan alone, frowning and thinking about something, "Hello, warden." The two of them greeted.
Liu Yuan didn't even raise his head. He just hummed and continued to stand there in deep thought. Teng Ying rarely saw Liu Yuan so frowning. She must have encountered some problem. She gave Meng Xi a look, and Meng Xi understood.
Teng Ying put it down, stepped back and left.
"Warden, what's on your mind?"
Hearing this, Liu Yuan raised his head and asked, "Why are you still here? Why haven't you gone back?"
Teng Ying said: "No."
Liu Yuan sighed and said, "Come back to the office with me."
office
Liu Yuan brought out the cooked food prepared in advance for Teng Ying, "I just bought it for you, and I'm about to call you."
The fragrant cooked food did not impress Teng Ying's taste buds. She continued to ask: "What's on your mind? Can you tell me?"
Liu Yuan shook his head, "It's nothing, I have something to do at work."
If something happened, she would definitely not embarrass Liu Yuan like this. Teng Ying said: "Mom, just tell your daughter."
Hearing this, Liu Yuan's heart trembled and her eyes suddenly turned red. She went over and hugged Teng Ying, "Xiaoying, mom doesn't want anything to happen to you, so don't ask."
"Is it about Zhang Li?"
Liu Yuan didn't say anything, and Teng Ying said: "In the past few days, Zhang Li has become everyone's talk point after dinner, and her story is being spread throughout the prison."
Liu Yuan sighed and nodded, "Hey, this kid is really awesome."
"What happened? Did you punish her?"
"No way, I just provided her with a private room to calm down, but who knows, this child is very stubborn. She has been refusing to eat or drink for several days. If this continues, something will happen." At this point, Liu
Yuan sighed deeply again.
Teng Ying rolled her eyes and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll go talk to her."
Liu Yuandao: "Farewell, to be honest, I don't want you to get too close to them, just for fear of getting you involved in something else."
"Don't worry, it won't happen." Then he said, "Mom, believe me."
Seeing Teng Ying's determined eyes, Liu Yuan gave up and took Teng Ying to the place. This was not a prison area, but a hotel prepared by the prison for couples serving sentences. It was obvious that Liu Yuan was very interested in Zhang Li.
Still very polite.
The guard standing guard at the door leaned against the wall, his face full of exhaustion. Zhang Li had been tormenting them so much in the past few days. When she saw Liu Yuan coming, she immediately stood up and said, "Warden."
Liu Yuan nodded lightly, "You can go back first." The guard agreed and left. Liu Yuan told Teng Ying: "If it doesn't make sense, don't force it. I'm thinking of a way."
"Okay." After saying that, Teng Ying knocked on the door gently. The door was very quiet without any answer. She knocked a few more times, but it was still the same. Teng Ying glanced at Liu Yuan, who said it didn't matter.
Then, she gently pushed the door open.
The room was not big. When I opened the door, I saw Zhang Li. She was sitting curled up on the edge of the bed. Her clothes were covered in mud and her long hair was messy, covering her entire face.
At this time, Zhang Li no longer had the domineering temperament he had at that time, but instead looked sloppy and weird.
Everyone is sympathetic, not to mention Teng Ying. She walked softly to Zhang Li's side and sat side by side with him in the same posture. "I think we have the same experience."
After saying this, Zhang Li remained motionless, as if he had not heard anything. Teng Ying was not in a hurry, and slowly moved her hand over, and then gently helped Zhang Li tidy up her messy hair. During the whole process, Zhang Li did not make any movement.
He just stared ahead with his dull eyes.
Soon, Teng Ying plated up Zhang Li's cake, and then said with satisfaction: "It's much better this time."
Perhaps because her eyesight became brighter, Zhang Li gradually regained her composure. She slowly turned her head and looked at Teng Ying. Then she suddenly jumped up and shouted: "What are you doing!"
When the guard outside the door heard this, he was about to rush into the room, but Liu Yuan stopped him and said, "Waiting."
Teng Ying did not panic, but stood up, leaned over and said, "Are you in such pain?"
Zhang Li gasped, "It's painful." As she spoke, her body swayed back and forth uncontrollably. Her physical energy had been exhausted to the limit. If she didn't get enough water, something would really happen.
"Then why do you want to make yourself suffer more? Since the reality is like this, isn't it good to accept it?"
Zhang Li sneered, "Reality? What kind of reality should you accept? If I stay here for more than ten years, I might as well die."
"Death? Huh?" Teng Ying laughed, and then said: "Death is so easy, you won't know anything as soon as you close your eyes."
"That's why I want to die to end this pain." Zhang Li said weakly.
Teng Ying asked: "Who is in your family?"
Zhang Li didn't understand why Teng Ying suddenly asked this question, but she still answered, "My mother, my father."
"Do you have anyone you love?" Teng Ying continued to ask.
Asked here, Zhang Li hesitated for a moment. The first thing that came to her mind was Lu Ziyang. Although she still loved him deeply at this time, the past was all gone and she could never return to what she was like today.
Went, "I don't know..."
"Then there is."
Then he said: "This way, you close your eyes and we play a simulation game."
