Cheng Baize looked at me with a cold face. He didn't think there was anything wrong with scaring me half to death. He put his hands in his pockets and looked like he was standing at the door waiting for a long time: "Tell me why I am here."
"I...how do I know?"
I was really shocked by him. He stood silently at the door because he wanted to scare me to death. He said, "How did you know I'm here? Are you here to find me?"
We haven't seen him for two years. He is obviously much stronger than before, and his eyes are slightly sharp. He looks at me with suppressed anger: "I came to see you? Ha, I came to see if you are stupid.
To what extent!"
"Why am I stupid!"
I said, and glanced at the bedroom with some taboo. Although I knew that according to the specifications of this room and the amount of medicine I administered, Zhuo Jing would not be awakened, but I still felt awkward, and unconsciously lowered my voice and said: "You say it first
How did you know I was here? Did Zong Bao tell you? Did you come to me specifically?"
Cheng Baize looked at me with eyes full of disappointment: "Ma Jiaolong, tell me, what are you thinking in your mind? If I just stand at the door of this room for a while longer, I can see you put your own
Is your future ruined?"
"What did you say!"
I think Cheng Baize is going to confuse me now. We haven’t seen each other for two years. I think I must be very excited to meet again, but I never thought that we would meet under such circumstances. Moreover, he
I looked angry, as if I had done something evil.
"Cheng Baize, I still have something to do now. Wait until I come back to tell you that I didn't come to Hong Kong intentionally to deceive you. That matter is indeed very difficult. I know you don't want me to come for my own good, but
Master Huang and Master Qi and I have solved the problem quickly. Zhuo Jing’s mother is here. I have to go see her first. Are you staying in this hotel? In which room? I’ll go find you later."
As I said that, I moved my body to squeeze out from in front of Cheng Baize. The moment I turned back to close the door, I heard Cheng Baize say in my ear: "It's useless for you to do this..."
I was stunned for a moment and looked up at him: "What did you say?"
Cheng Baize's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at me with an unusually sad look: "The evil of marriage, also called the calamity of marriage, can only be carried out when the two people are in love, otherwise, there will be no lingering love, how can it be done?
When it comes to a good marriage, if the one who breaks the evil doesn't cooperate and the one who keeps the evil is just wishful thinking, then the evil cannot be broken. To put it bluntly, the one who breaks the evil can take the initiative to implement it, which proves that there is love. If the one who keeps the evil takes the initiative
, even if the Evil Breaker cooperates like a dead person, it is useless, because he does not love you and has no sincerity. In the end, the only one who is cheap is you."
I was stunned and looked up at Cheng Baize: "How did you know I was going to break the evil..."
"Ah."
Cheng Baize chuckled and looked at me: "I know what you did today, Ma Jiaolong, you never shed tears until you see the coffin. If this Zhuo Jing really loves you and dotes on you, then I have nothing to say.
I wish you happiness, but your actions leave me speechless and disappointed. You are so naive that you want to give yourself away so unnoticed. What do you think of yourself? Do you think Zhuo Jing will appreciate it? He
If he were a man, he would not watch his woman suffer such great injustice for him!"
"I don't feel wronged!!"
I was angry. I didn’t know if Cheng Baize took the wrong medicine. I thought that when we meet again, I will cherish my friendship with him, because the five thunder palms he hit on me are enough to make me feel sad.
I have been thinking about it all my life, but I didn't expect him to tell me this when we met. This is my own business and I don't need anyone to interfere!
"You know what kind of body I have. He is a normal man. Who would accept a normal man like me? Do you know what I have? Do you think there will be no shadow in his heart? Don't say he can't do it.
Even now, I can’t do it!!”
"hehe."
Cheng Baize looked at me and laughed to himself, nodded, and took two steps back: "Why do you have such a narrow understanding of love? To love someone is to love everything about them, even if he is ugly or disabled, she is still her! Instead of that,
If you say that Zhuo Jing can't accept your body, you might as well say that he only likes your face. If he was sincere, many things would have fallen into place a long time ago. How could there be anything like this today! Ma Jiaolong, let me tell you
, if one day I fall in love with someone, let alone her intersex, even if he is extremely ugly, born with a mutilated lip and six fingers, then I will guard her and protect her. I will not and will not let her go.
She’s pretending to be mean to herself for me!!!”
"Shut up!!!"
I stared at him with wide eyes: "Did you come back to quarrel with me? This is my own business. I can do whatever I want. I am willing to make trouble for Zhuo Jing. Can I do it myself? Cheng Baize, we have two years
No, did you tell me this as soon as we met? You should support me, right? Do you know how difficult it is for me to take this step?!!"
"It's precisely because of your difficulty that I can't let you continue to be so stupid. Let me tell you the truth, if you insist on having your own way, you will only be hurt by the time!!!"
After shouting, Cheng Baize saw that my eyes were red, and he couldn't help but calm down a little: "Jiaolong, not everyone can be born with yin and yang. Since he can't accept you, why do you have to wrong yourself so much? You are the most
As a promising Onmyoji, is it possible that you would give up everything you have just for a man?"
"Moreover, this man is not as devoted to you as you thought. You know, what you should be thankful for is not that you are born with yin and yang, nor is your personality so smart, lively and lovable, but that your face will grow
, if it weren’t for your face, I don’t think he would even be able to look at you one more time, so how could he fall in love with you.”
I shook my head: "He is not what you said. We were both children when Zhuo Jing met me for the first time. He didn't look at my face. We like each other because we are from the same world.
Cheng Baize, I beg you, please don't put this pressure on me, can you please support me? I have an objection to marriage. No man can say that he likes me except Zhuo Jing. He and I are the best.
Appropriately, he has evil bones, and I am the one who protects him. I beg you, can you give me some courage? I hope to get your blessing, you are my most important friend."
Cheng Baize looked at me and sighed softly: "Just because I am your most important friend, I don't want you to take detours, Jiaolong, if you don't believe me, you can go see his mother now,
I promise you will see clearly how difficult it will be if you choose to be with him in the future. I don’t want to see you feel wronged or suffer. You may be able to choose to start a family in the future, but this man, he really doesn’t want to.
suits you."
I'm afraid of this, I really am afraid of this, so I'm very grateful to Zong Bao when he didn't put pressure on me. I know that Cheng Baize told me this for my own good, but he doesn't know that I risk everything just to end this.
I don't want to be timid about all the options, that is to say, I don't want to give myself a reason to look back, because the person sleeping in this room is the man I love most.
Lifting my feet, I don't want to say anything anymore. Regardless of whether what Cheng Baize said is true or false, I don't want to listen anymore. I can't keep Zhuo Jing's mother waiting for too long. I think there will be a way to fight against my marriage.
If it doesn't work out, I'll go find Mr. Nan and Old Uncle Chou. I don't believe it. I'll go through all the experts in the world and they won't be able to break this unlucky marriage refutation of mine!
"Jiaolong, you will regret it!!"
Cheng Baize's voice sounded behind me. I didn't look back. It doesn't matter if I don't regret it later. I like to stay with Zhuo Jing like this. Today is the happiest day I have lived in the past three years. For him, I am willing not to do it again.
I'm an onmyoji now, and I really can't bear to see him suffer because of me. Aren't we just two ordinary young people? What's wrong with being together? Who the hell are we getting in the way?!
My heart hurt again. I leaned down and held on to the slippery wall of the elevator. It was okay. I thought Zhuo Jing’s mother must be a smart woman. I answered Zhuo Jing’s call and lived in the same suite with Zhuo Jing.
She should have a clear mind and not make things difficult for me. Besides, when I was a child, my uncle said that the Zhuo family planned to let Zhuo Jing marry his guardian, so An Qi was very proud and said happily that she would marry her elder brother in the future.
My brother got married and went to high school in the city because of the name of "Guardian". Their family trained Zhuo Jing's guardian as Zhuo Jing's other half. So since I am Zhuo Jing's guardian, what should I do?
Falling in love with him, everything is so perfect and natural.
Besides, his mother didn’t show any dissatisfaction with me answering Zhuo Jing’s cell phone. If she really doesn’t like me when she sees me, then if she thinks there’s something bad about me, I’ll change it until she likes it. I think,
She will hope that her son will be happy and will also bless us.
"Hello, are you Miss Lin?"
The waiter looked at me looking around in the coffee room and stepped forward to ask with some confusion.
I hummed, "Yes, I'm looking for someone."
"Excuse me, is it Mrs. Zhuo you are looking for?"
I nodded: "Yes, may I ask where she is."
"She's in the private room inside. Please come with me."
The waiter politely led the way, and I let out a gentle breath. Cheng Baize's sudden appearance was like pouring a bucket of cold water on my heart. I knew clearly that he wanted me to know that everything was not what I thought.
Simple, I naturally understand it, but I am used to dealing with complex things simply, and I don’t want to bother with those messy things. In the past few years, I have made my own decisions about everything, so I think this
I have to make up my own mind about going back!
"Qiaoqiao, are you Qiaoqiao?"
Zhuo Jing's mother is indeed a bright and beautiful woman. Although her figure is a bit bloated and her clothes are very low-key, she has decent makeup and an outstanding temperament. When she saw me, her crow's feet rose and she smiled with kindness in her eyes. I quickly bowed.
Bowed, "I'm Qiaoqiao. I'm sorry, aunt, for keeping you waiting for so long."
"It doesn't matter. I'm fine anyway. Come on, Qiaoqiao, sit down quickly."
I nodded and sat down opposite her. To be honest, although Zhuo Jing’s mother was always smiling, the aura she exuded was very powerful, and she had a sense of self-reliance. I looked at her
Her eyes are sparkling and undercurrent. She is definitely a thoughtful person, but her eyes are really beautiful. It seems that Zhuo Jing followed her mother. I am embarrassed to stare at her so straightly.
Another point is that it feels a bit rude to look at an elder like this. Coupled with her aura, I always feel that I am being suppressed invisibly. I lower my eyes slightly and feel that she has been sizing me up, but I don’t know what to do.
What did you say?
"Come on, Qiao Qiao, Auntie doesn't know what you like to drink, so she ordered you a cup of milk tea. I drank too much coffee, so I'm afraid you won't have a good rest at night."
"Thank you, Auntie." I nodded politely to her, with a hint of awkwardness and stiffness all over my body. I picked up the milk tea and took a sip: "It's delicious."
Zhuo Jing's mother looked at me and smiled: "Are you nervous, silly boy, we are all a family, don't be nervous."
Her kind attitude did make me relax a little. I reached into my pocket and took out the tortoise-shell "Nothing" sign and put it on the coffee table. I looked at her sincerely: "Auntie, we were in a hurry when we first met.
I don’t know what to give you, this is just a little bit of my thoughts, I hope you like it.”
"What is it?" She looked at me with some surprise, and slowly opened the bag: "Oh, it's very beautiful. I happen to have a tortoise shell bracelet at home, and I can wear it with it in the future. Thank you, it's such a beautiful bracelet.
Dear child, this is very expensive, where did you buy it?"
I scratched my head in embarrassment: "I didn't buy it, it was given to me by Uncle Li because I showed him the feng shui of the house, so he wanted to give me a red envelope. I thought the red envelope was too big, so I gave it to me.
I didn't accept it, so Uncle Li asked me to find one I liked among his antiques, and I chose this "Nothing" card."
"Oh, that's how it is."
Zhuo Jing's mother nodded: "Those toys in Maocheng's house are all his treasures. It seems that what he encountered this time must be very complicated. Then you must like this thing very much. Give it to
I, don’t I feel like giving up my love in my heart? Auntie accepts it, so you can keep it.”
"No, no, no, Auntie, please keep it. This is my little wish."
I twitched the corners of my mouth and said, "Don't be so polite, auntie. I just didn't expect to meet here. I should be well prepared."
"Silly boy."
Zhuo Jing's mother suddenly grabbed my hand. Her palm was very soft and warm. She gently touched the back of my hand with her other hand. She looked at me and said kindly, "Don't prepare anything."
, If I hadn’t made a mistake from the beginning, then Auntie should have seen you a long time ago, right? You are the guardian of Qilin, that is, a member of our family, so Auntie should have bought you some gifts for you."
I rarely have people hold hands like this to express intimacy, especially elders who I don’t know very well. I always feel a little awkward, and my face turns slightly red: “Auntie, don’t be polite to Jiaolong, don’t dislike Jiaolong.
It’s okay if you don’t know anything.”
"You are not sensible anymore. I think you are very sensible. Ever since I learned that you were the guardian of Qilin two years ago, I have known more or less about you. You child, you are also ill-fated, but
Don’t worry, Auntie will take good care of you in the future, and you will be just like Auntie’s daughter.”
I felt slightly relieved. When she said this, it at least proved that she didn't hate me, which reassured me.
"Did Qilin take you to play in Hong Kong for a day today?"
I nodded and said yes: "I just went to ride the Ding Ding car and ate pineapple buns."
Zhuo Jing's mother nodded and smiled: "Okay, I should take you to have some fun. I remember when Qilin was a child, he always talked about liking you as a little sister. At first, I was wondering why he did so.
I'm not close to An Qi, but later I found out that Qilin is the one who understands, and you and An Qi have indeed made a mistake."
I twitched the corner of my mouth slightly, but did not respond to Zhuo Jing's mother's words.
"Actually, it's good to be wrong. Otherwise, I watched Qilin treat An Qi with a cold face again and again. The little girl is so thin-skinned. When I saw An Qi crying, I couldn't bear it.
, but my son still has a stubborn temper, and sometimes he has a childish temper with me. I don’t know what to say about him, but now he’s better and I’ve figured it all out. Seeing him getting close to you, I understand in my heart.
Already."
I raised my eyes and looked at Zhuo Jing's mother: "Auntie, Qilin is actually a cold-faced and warm-hearted person. He doesn't really want to get angry with you."
"Yeah, I know that too. Hey, that kid is used to being a loner, and I've been worrying about it. You said he's almost thirty now, and it's time for him to start a family, but he doesn't have a female companion around him.
When An Qi was young, his father and I wanted to train An Qi well. In the future, if An Qi could marry Qilin, it would be a complete success. But later, I felt that An Qi was not suitable. Although she is a child,
He is lively and smart, but not very stable. Sometimes children are too angry, and Qilin really doesn't catch a cold, so I can only forget about it. In fact, I came here today for this matter.
,Come on, Qiaoqiao, take a look, look at this..."
I was stunned for a moment. I didn’t know why Zhuo Jing’s mother ended the conversation here. I watched her take out her phone and pull out a photo and handed it to me: “Qiao Qiao, you are Qilin’s most beloved little sister. Take a look.
Is it suitable for her to be your sister-in-law? Originally, I wanted to invite her to come here to meet Qilin, but seeing that Qilin fell asleep, it happened to be that you gave aunt some advice. If you think it is inappropriate, then aunt will not let them meet.
…”
I couldn't see clearly the appearance of the woman in the photo for a while, and my heart slowly tightened. I was asked to advise Zhuo Jing on the blind date... What does this mean?
"Auntie, she..."
Zhuo Jing's mother looked at me and gently held her lips: "You look a little too ordinary, I think so too. Our Qilin loves you as a little sister. You are so beautiful. He wants to do it himself."
The wife you are looking for will definitely not be too bad, but I like this girl very much. She has an MBA from Stanford University in the United States. Her parents have cooperated with us in business. I heard that she has a quiet and reserved personality and can also play the piano.
With the violin, by the way, some time ago, I made a special trip to Hong Kong just to see this child’s solo exhibition. She is a very outstanding girl.”
I suddenly couldn't say anything. Looking at the gentle girl with long hair and a smile in the photo, the layers in my throat seemed to be filled with cotton, which made me speechless and unable to speak.
