Li Xu smiled and said hello to Zhao Tiezhu. Zhao Tiezhu walked directly past Li Xu as if he didn't see him.
Cao Ziyi followed Zhao Tiezhu, about one meter away from him, with eyes full of pity.
Just walking out of the villa and then out of the villa area, Zhao Tiezhu was like a walking zombie. He walked on the road without any emotions. What he had was just as calm as water.
So calm...as if it were stagnant water.
Some people can quickly put all negative emotions behind them. Zhao Tiezhu is also such a person.
Although he cannot control his emotions perfectly, ordinary emotions can hardly affect Zhao Tiezhu. Therefore, when his body is covered in blood after being flogged, Zhao Tiezhu can still stand proudly. When he is looked down upon by others,
Zhao Tiezhu could also laugh it off.
However, some injuries are destined not to be erased so easily.
Zhao Tiezhu kept walking forward.
He didn't know where to go, or where to feel safe.
In Zhao Tiezhu's mind, there was only the back of the snow-white wedding dress, and even in his mind, he had slowly begun to forget about Li Ling'er.
It's like selective amnesia.
When he reached the entrance of an alley, Zhao Tiezhu stopped.
He looked around suspiciously.
I don’t know why I ended up here, but it was still morning, and now the sun has begun to tilt.
A few children returning home from school were chasing each other and playing around in the alley, while those men and women who were sixteen or seventeen years old and had reached puberty were either talking to each other in a deserted corner, or secretly holding hands.
Not far away, some people who had got off work were holding bags in their hands. The bags contained various ingredients, including fish, meat, and vegetables.
Zhao Tiezhu just stood blankly at the entrance of the alley, watching people walk past him one by one.
Then, disappear at the other end of the alley.
Why am I here?
This was the first question that arose in Zhao Tiezhu's mind. Then Zhao Tiezhu frowned and looked to the side, and then he saw the soft and beautiful woman who looked like a hibiscus emerging from water.
"Are you Si Ru?" Zhao Tiezhu said with surprise on his face.
Cao Ziyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly, "I am Ziyi, Tiezhu!"
"Oh! You are Ziyi!" Zhao Tiezhu suddenly realized, then shook his head helplessly and said, "Why...why did I appear here?"
"You walked all the way." Cao Ziyi said softly, "You walked for a long, long time, and traveled through most of the capital to reach this place."
"Oh!" Zhao Tiezhu nodded, then looked at the people and things next to him and said, "What's wrong with me?"
"There's nothing wrong with you!" Cao Ziyi shook her head and said, "You just need to be quiet."
"Why should I be quiet?" Zhao Tiezhu tilted his head in confusion.
Sudden.
Zhao Tiezhu's heart twitched fiercely.
A snow-white figure appeared in Zhao Tiezhu's mind.
"I remembered!" Zhao Tiezhu said with blurred eyes, "Ling'er, you're getting married!"
"Yes!" Cao Ziyi said, "Tomorrow night!"
"Oh!!" Zhao Tiezhu walked to the side of the alley, squatted against the wall, took out a stick of Double Happiness from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and then took out a lighter and lit the Double Happiness.
Take a deep breath.
The curling green smoke covered Zhao Tiezhu's face.
"Tell me, why is this person like this?" Zhao Tiezhu looked at the green smoke and whispered to himself, as if he was asking Cao Ziyi.
"Perhaps, what we saw and thought is not consistent with the facts!" Cao Ziyi said.
"Haha, maybe." Zhao Tiezhu smiled, raised his head, looked at the blue sky that was no longer visible, and said, "But that was her choice, wasn't it?"
"Yes!" Cao Ziyi said, "We can't force anyone!"
"Yes!" Zhao Tiezhu snapped his fingers, stood up, and said, "Not all women who appear in my life will have anything happen to me. It's because I am too pretentious and always think that many things are what I think.
, Haha, a big slap finally woke me up."
"Actually, you can tell that Ling'er loves you!" Cao Ziyi said slowly.
"Maybe." Zhao Tiezhu smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Love or not is not important anymore, is it?"
"Sometimes it is important, sometimes it is not important." Cao Ziyi said, "If love cannot be responded to, then love is not important, but if love can be responded to, then love is very important."
"I don't understand." Zhao Tiezhu shook his head.
"The foundation of love, in fact, lies in being loved." Cao Ziyi walked to Zhao Tiezhu's side and squatted against the wall regardless of her appearance.
Zhao Tiezhu quickly put out the cigarette butt.
"We like to say, I love you and you love me, but I prefer to use this way to interpret the so-called love, that is, I am loved by you, and you are also loved by me. We need each other.
,This is the essence of love." Cao Ziyi said.
"So?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.
"If you feel that you are loved by Ling'er, and Ling'er is also loved by you, then the love between you is far more important than you think!" Cao Ziyi said.
"Haha, maybe." Zhao Tiezhu stood up, stretched out his hand to pull Cao Ziyi up, and then said, "Okay, let's go home. I'm sorry to make you walk for so long."
"Haha, I do!" Cao Ziyi looked at Zhao Tiezhu and said.
If there is one sentence that Cao Ziyi said the most to Zhao Tiezhu, it is undoubtedly that I am willing.
Zhao Tiezhu looked at Cao Ziyi blankly, and suddenly his eyes turned red.
"I..." Zhao Tiezhu's voice trembled, and he held Cao Ziyi's hand. His body twitched slightly, his teeth bit his lower lip, and his face wrinkled.
"good!"
Cao Ziyi gently stepped forward, hugged Zhao Tiezhu in her arms, and said, "Actually, love is not always a beautiful thing sometimes. We can only grow slowly when we hurt others and be hurt.
Tiezhu, don’t cry!”
Zhao Tiezhu's body was trembling, but his voice was much calmer.
