"Would you like to go to a far away place where there are no worries, no classmates bully you, and no one to compete with you in dressing up?" Mother asked again.

I thought my mother was serious at the time, so I thought about it seriously and said, "Is there really such a place?"

My mother looked back at me and nodded firmly, saying, "Yes, there must be!"

"But our home is here, and here are my school and my classmates. Although a few classmates often laugh at me, I am no longer angry with them because my mother said that I compare my grades with them.

My grades are better than them all. And other classmates like me very much, and the teacher also likes me very much. If we leave here, I will never see them again!"

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"Are you really not afraid of the ridicule of your classmates and living a hard life with your mother?" My mother looked at me with a serious expression.

"Don't be afraid!"

"..."

"Would you be sad if your mother told you that your father would never come back?"

"...Dad has not come back for many years. Whether he comes back or not is not important to me at all. As long as my mother is by my side, it will be fine!" This is indeed the case. If it weren't for that photo, I would hardly know about my father.

It seems that since childhood, father has been just a title on the lips.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished saying these words, my mother suddenly turned around and hugged me tightly, and her tears fell heavily on my head.

I didn't know what happened, and I didn't dare to ask my mother. I just let my mother hold me, feeling a little scared.

Later I realized that if I had agreed to leave with my mother that day, I might never feel my mother's embrace again.

What I didn't know was that my mother learned the news about my father from someone else that day. Now that I think about it, after learning the news, my mother became convinced that my father would not come back.

The heavy pressure of life had brought her to the brink of collapse, and she suddenly suffered such a huge mental blow that she instantly lost her will to live.

If it weren't for my words, my mother would most likely "take me to another place."

I just understood the meaning of what my mother said that night, and suddenly I felt a palpitation in my heart. I couldn't help but return to the cliff again. Unexpectedly, before I got there, I just looked at the green plants at the bottom of the valley from a distance and felt that the world was spinning.

Since then, I have developed a fear of heights. As long as I stand at a slightly higher place, I will feel palpitations accompanied by a strong sense of dizziness. When the intensity is severe, I cannot stand.

"Now do you know why I am afraid of heights?" I looked back at Mu Xichun.

I saw her staring at me dumbfounded, her eyes full of disbelief and horror, and she was speechless for a moment.

She probably never imagined that the man in front of her would already be on the verge of life and death when he was only ten years old.

At ten years old, she is probably still dreaming of a carefree princess.

After telling her this past incident, I felt a lot lighter inside. Sure enough, everyone needs to talk to me, right?

Mu Xichun seemed to be still thinking about the story I told him, staring blankly at the bottom of the cliff.

I had no intention of interrupting her reenactment and went back to clear the weeds beside my mother's grave.

Another spring has passed, and another summer has returned. The grass in front of the grave has been cleared and will grow again next year, but my mother can only appear in my dreams. Even the opportunities to see my mother in my dreams are getting less and less...

…

Go down the mountain

The journey was long and we didn’t talk. The so-called past events are too painful to look back on because they are all heartbreaking.

I walked forward with my thoughts in mind, and didn't notice Mu Xichun gradually falling behind me. When I came to my senses, she was still there.

I was a little surprised, this woman couldn't have gotten lost.

I was so busy that I turned around to look for her again, only to see her sitting under a tree, already dripping with sweat.

"Why don't you leave?" I asked.

"My legs hurt so much, I can't walk!" She looked at me with a bitter look on her face and said pitifully.

"Don't rest any longer, hurry down the mountain while it's cool, it will only get hotter later!" I urged, my tone slightly impatient.

"I really can't walk! Why don't you go first and leave me alone!" My tone seemed to make Mu Xichun feel a little unhappy.

"I'm telling you, the woods here are so big and deserted, and there are often snakes, insects and wild animals. You can stay here if you want!" I said half-scaring and half-seriously. There are no wild beasts, and there are indeed snakes and insects.

Sure enough, Mu Xichun jumped up in panic after hearing what I said, looked around alertly, and then followed closely behind me.

I didn't find it funny. When I turned around, I saw that she was walking in a weird way and her eyes were looking around, as if a wild beast would suddenly jump out and commit murder.

Maybe the mountain road was really too difficult to walk. Mu Xichun might not have walked on such a road in his life, so he only walked for a short while before holding on.

Not being picky, he sat down on the grass and kneaded his calves with his hands.

I looked up at the sun, which was about to reach noon, and shook my head helplessly.

He walked up to her and forcibly pulled her up, then squatted with his back to her, patted her back and said, "Come up, my President!"

Mu Xichun's originally crying face suddenly lit up with joy when he heard this. He didn't even bother to hide it and jumped on my back.

I smiled bitterly and said to myself: You really don’t know how to be reserved.

Mu Xichun lay on my back and hugged my neck, and her mood became high. She kept reaching for the bushes above and beside her head, and knitted a hat on my back with the leaves of the bushes.

Stay on top.

"Haha, although it is green, it looks pretty good! What do you think?" She was quite proud of her masterpiece.

"It's not good, take it off for me quickly!"

"If you don't take it, it's quite beautiful!"

"Do you believe I will throw you into the forest?" I threatened.

Mu Xichun quickly hugged my neck and said, "Throw it away, and you will both throw us into the grass."

I was speechless for a while.

Due to the thin clothes I wore, I could clearly feel the feeling of Mu Xichun's soft body on my back. Especially when she hugged me tightly, those two soft balls were real and delicate, making my mind and thoughts flow.

At this point, I was almost certain that Mu Xichun was either playing tricks on me, or she really fell in love with me, but obviously the former seemed uneconomical for her, and it was probably the latter.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a bit bitter in my heart. Mr. President, how should I refuse you?

"Wei Jinsheng!" She called my name softly from behind me.

"Um?"

"Can you tell me about you and that woman named Li Ruyi?"

"Don't you already know what there is to say?"

"I only know a rough idea. Can you tell me in detail what your relationship is and why?

What will go to the police station?"

I shook my head helplessly. After all, what was coming could not be escaped. I thought to myself, she might not give up if I didn’t tell her, so I told the whole story of the incident. Of course, the scene where Li Ruyi and I were fighting each other on the riverbank

It was mentioned in a very vague way, but it was said that Li Ruyi's crying caused the fishermen to misunderstand and reported it to the police.

After listening to everything I said, Mu Xichun seemed to be enlightened.

"Then you spent a whole night alone with her, did you really not sit down for anything?" Mu Xichun didn't seem to believe it.

When I heard this, I was too lazy to explain any more, and pretended to throw her into the grass. She hurriedly wrapped her hands and feet around my neck and waist, clinging to my body like an octopus.

Mu Xichun stopped talking, but was only silent for a moment, then whispered in my ear: "Wei Jinsheng!"

"What's wrong?" I was impatient.

"Do you know that no one has ever carried me like this?"

"so what?"

"Do you still remember the first time you carried me on your back?"

"Of course I remember, I still remember that night I was beaten so badly that my face was completely bruised!" I said angrily.

"Although you looked like you were acting rogue that time when you forced me to carry you, I actually felt so at ease on your back."

"..."

"You can be humiliated and stay in the company for the sake of your friends. Although I don't really want to retaliate against you, that's what you thought at the time, right? You can let yourself be reduced to living in a warehouse just to help Shitou. I just don't understand that you clearly

You are a kind person, why should you disguise yourself as a scoundrel? I have only seen villains disguise themselves as gentlemen, but I have never seen a gentleman disguise himself as villains. This is something I cannot understand. You can tell me.

Well?"

I don't understand why she suddenly asked such a question. I have never thought about such a question in my heart, and I don't think I am pretending at all.

"Actually, I'm not pretending. I'm just acting casually, and I'm not a gentleman. Since you want to know, I'll explain it to you. Li Liang is my best friend. If it were you, you would be a friend who would cause trouble."

Something about that?" I answered with a question, asking a question that puts me in someone else's shoes.

"Then there's Shitou. Do you still remember the story I told you about Shitou? His father died unexpectedly while working on a construction site, but he didn't receive any compensation. Moreover, the land where his home is located was also acquired by our company.

I still haven't received any compensation. Shitou's experience is very similar to mine. That's why I decided to help him. I don't feel that I have done a great thing. I just don't want my experience to happen again.

Replicate it on him!" I sighed.

"You are so kind to others, why are you so cruel to me?" Mu Xichun wiped my sweat with her sleeve, her tone slightly resentful.

"That's because I began to think that you were a bully and a dandy, a daughter of a rich family, and her temperament was unavoidable, but if I wanted to try my best to please you like other people, I couldn't do it, so

I don’t want to spoil you when I see you acting unruly!”

This is true.

"Why are you different from others? It's hard to get benefits in such a social environment. If it weren't for me, anyone with your personality would have been kicked out of the company long ago!"

"Then why don't you drive me away?"
