Chapter 40 At that time, I was lost
With the departure of the Tong Emperor, the forest bar became quiet again.
I looked at the messy bar and felt a little dazed. It carried my most painful five years and many memories.
When I turned my head, I could still see Amu sitting on the central platform, singing slowly, and the singing seemed to be lingering in the bar.
When I turned around, I seemed to see Sangsang lying on the bar with a smile, holding his chin, and greeting the regular customers who were coming and going.
I'm afraid I can't eat the dishes made from Amu, and I'm afraid I can never drink some special wines.
In just two months, my life completely subverted Chen Chong and became the so-called Taotie. Zhou Zheng and Hai Nian disappeared. Amu and Sangsang were demons. In a sense, I was not my parents' children. Their children died in that accident when they were very young. What am I? Is a despicable corpse resurrectionist?
Is this how I exist?
Finally, there were two very important people who accompanied me through the most peaceful and warm years in the mountain gate, but that could no longer be mentioned. I was "abandoned" by them five years ago.
There is a kind of pain that makes people unable to cry or laugh, and they can only bear it numbly.
Just like the quiet moment, my life actually has a kind of loneliness with nowhere to talk about.
I was silent for a long time, and Lan Xuan stood beside me and waited quietly. I looked up at the Tianzi No. 1 room downstairs and said to her: "I don't know where I'm going? So, I have to go with you, but you can wait for me for a while."
Lan Xuan looked at her, with a reproach and helpless look in her eyes. She must have something to say, but in the end she just nodded quietly.
I turned around and ran downstairs. The familiar Tianzi No. 1 room was right in front of me, but the door was closed and it was completely locked.
I don’t know what I am pursuing and loving for? Isn’t it the most painful five years? But I still gritted my teeth and kicked it away, kicking it open.
I thought the room might have been covered with dust after being locked, but I didn't expect it to be surprisingly clean inside and there was not even a single dust. Could it be that Amu and Sangsang often come to clean it?
The decorations inside have not changed, and there is no change in the slightest. But what about the human being? It has disappeared from the ends of the world in a flash, right?
I walked quietly through the room, unable to express my mood, and found that there was a decoration on the long table under the window slightly changed. It was a photo frame that was buttoned on several sides. I was actually very familiar with it because there was a photo in the frame.
That was Room 1, Tianzi. After the decoration on the first day, we drank and took a photo here.
I picked up the photo. Zhou Zheng and Chen Chong and I sat at the table with arms around each other. On the table were a few side dishes made by Amu, plum wine made by Sangsang, and Sangsang was lying on the backs of our three, Amu leaned gently beside us, and Qin Hainian stood behind us seriously, with his eyes falling on Zhou Zheng, a little shy and a little cramped.
The one who helped me take photos was a regular customer of Amu. It is said that he was a very professional photographer. He really successfully captured the happiness of this moment.
No matter how different our expressions were, we smiled so brightly in this photo, including Amu, who has always been reserved, smiling softly.
My fingers stroked everyone's face in the photo. I thought the most painful five years were not so precious too?
Li Shangyin's "Jinse" has always been called a poem that has been a fan of all ages. The mood expressed in the poem is very messy and inconsistent at this moment, but when I was looking at this photo, I felt this messy mood.
This feeling can be remembered, but it was already lost at that time.
"Mr. Ye." My eyes were a little astringent, and I had never liked to cry. It was just dry and painful, but my thoughts were interrupted by the voice of Lan Xuan downstairs.
I simply broke the photo frame and put the photo in my pocket.
I can't forgive my mistakes now, but it does not mean that I admit my love back then. It's also my memory. It's hard to tell whether there is anything or not. It's also a big show. But the mood that stops at a certain year, month and moment is always true.
Even if Chen Chong no longer admits that he is a human being, he always understands this principle and will tell me that way.
When she went downstairs, Lan Xuan was already waiting at the door. The curtains of the people returning home were flying all the time, but her standing posture was impeccably elegant and upright.
I packed up my things downstairs, the broken cell phone, lighter, and important natal array seal, and walked towards Lan Xuan.
"Let's go." In fact, I passed by her, but I didn't know where to go? All I had had was broken, so I could only follow my destiny.
"Mr. Ye." But she called me behind my back.
I turned to look at her, and she said to me, "Can you stop doing so recklessly in the future?"
"Okay, I'll try my best." I dare not promise anything, because I know too little, my life is already a mystery to myself, what else can I guarantee?
At this time, the city was already on its lanterns. At the warmest moment of dinner, Lan Xuan's eyes reflected the warm yellow light of street lights, and it also seemed very warm. Only then did I see her clearly. It turned out to be a gentle and charming woman between her eyebrows and eyes, which was quite inconsistent with the sharp and capable temperament just now.
But it is a reassuring trust.
"Mr. Ye, you can't try your best. No matter how much you know now, you always understand that times have changed. The days that could have lived peacefully in the past, but now, I don't know when to die. The reason why you can't be willful is because you have cared the lives of many people, such as me and my family." Lan Xuan's expression was very serious, but the trust and dependence in her eyes could not be dissolved.
In fact, strictly speaking, to her, I am just a strange man, so why does this emotion have? Even if I am the young master Ye in their mouths?
"Oh." I responded and continued to walk forward.
Lan Xuan sighed and followed me, and the forest bar was getting further and further away from me, just like the peaceful and peaceful days in the past few years were getting further and further away from me.
It was almost early autumn weather, and at this time, there was still a cool breeze. My footsteps followed by Lan Xuan's footsteps. After walking for more than ten minutes, I remembered and turned to ask her, "Where are we going?"
"I think Mr. Ye needs time to calm down, so let you walk for a while and calm your mood. If you are tired of walking, then wait here." Lan Xuan took out a cell phone from her delicate bag.
"I don't need to calm down. No matter what kind of abusive mood, I only know that I have no reason to die, so I have to go through it." I leaned against the street lamp pole and said lightly.
Lan Xuan was a little stunned, then lowered her head and dialed her phone, but murmured: "It turns out that it has never changed."
She said a few words to her phone about the place, and then waited with me.
I took out a cigarette and lit it, and asked, "Are you what Su Ling said, are you going to see me?"
Before, when she asked Su Ling what questions she asked, she always perfunctorily, but later she couldn't do it perfunctorily, so she said someone would meet me and tell me everything. Naturally, I guess Lan Xuan was this person.
"Yes, it would have been a few days late. Because I had too many things to do, but you disappeared, I had to come here without stopping." Lan Xuan said calmly.
I spit out a cigarette, blurting the night sky in front of me, feeling a little laughing. Su Ling has been trained and deliberately wants to be my personal butler, but in comparison, she is a little "struggle". After all, she is a little girl. But Lan Xuan in front of me is a good "butler" who is calm and calm, right?
It is said that the housekeeper is a bit insignificant, but she is capable of any position in society, right? No wonder Emperor Tong wanted to ‘select’ her.
"The power here is very strong. How dare you come here alone and have the confidence to take me away." Whether it is Chen Chong or Tong Emperor, they are not easy to mess with. This time I acted recklessly, but what I got was a small game between forces.
It turns out that I value myself too much. From the beginning of this game, the ending was actually not something that could be controlled.
"It is naturally not possible to be with me alone. Without you, the Huo Nie family is just an empty shell and cannot compete with them. I just used some means." Lan Xuan said lightly.
It’s just that my Huo Nie family is also an empty shell. What’s the use of me? The ability to destroy the seal and then explode? It’s worse than Chen Yaojin’s three axes! Thinking of this, both my body and soul were filled with bursts of pain and weakness. I supported myself and leaned against the lamp pole, with just a calm expression.
I thought it was like this. When the night wind blew, Lan Xuan couldn't help but say: "Fortunately, for so many years, you finally appeared and finally came back. We all stayed here, and it was too hard to wait."
Is it a joke? I turned to look at Lan Xuan, a hint of fragility appeared in her eyes, and then disappeared immediately.
I didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "Don't call me Young Master, why are you the same as Su Ling? Call me Zhengling, or Ye Zhengling."
"Okay, then you call me Tina too." Unlike Su Ling, Lan Xuan didn't insist on anything too much, but I still remembered that she refused Tongdi and called her Tina without hesitation.
I nodded and asked casually: "Why did you get a foreign name?"
"Because I once admired someone, she gave herself a simple English name." Lan Xuan explained to me in a very concise way.
I think it’s strange, who else would someone like Lan Xuan admire?
But at this time, a black luxury car had slowly stopped in front of us, which was the Bentley that I could not drive in my dreams.
"Get in the car, Zheng Ling." Lan Xuan called me.
I nodded and was about to agree, but I got out of the car and I didn't have time to react and was completely unprepared. I tripped back and tripped me to the ground.
"How can you?" Lan Xuan's slightly angry voice came from my ears.
