Turning off all the lights in the room, I opened the curtains, stood barefoot by the window, looking at the deep sky, and suddenly my mind went backwards. Assuming that Jian Wei was the female version of Robben, would she break up with me because of some unscrupulous difficulties?

As soon as this idea emerged, I was startled by myself and laughed at myself for being too good at association. How could there be so many hidden injuries in this world to enrich our lives? And it is enough to have Robben and Wei Manwen around me!

I remembered Mi Cai, who was still spending a long journey on the plane at this time. If she learned about Wei Manwen's whereabouts, what would she feel? My sisterly relationship will stop me from revealing the truth?

I think she will not, because she is a rational woman who understands right and wrong, and she will also make Lobeng's regret not meant to have been.

The night, deeper in my complexity, and the moon in the air seemed to be weak. She treated the dark cloud as a gentle place and refused to show up again. And I finally realized that it was time for me to rest...

When I was about to turn around, a shiny ignited in the sky, so I was immersed in the darkness and a transparent city suddenly appeared in a trance, but I didn't have time to catch it, so I was chasing the trajectory of its disappearance. Until I disappeared, I felt that I was gently teased by it, so I patted the wall and said to myself, "You shouldn't tease me, because the one named Robben next door should be teased even more..."

......

The next day, there was no imagined rising sun, nor the warm wind, only dark clouds and drizzle in the sky, as well as the rushing tourists passing by with an umbrella.

Robben and I stood side by side under the awning on the balcony, lit a cigarette, I took a deep breath, and smiled at him, "The weather is really good today!"

Robben looked at the willow trees on the bank of the river, nodded and said, "It's good. If it doesn't rain, that row of willow trees will almost wither."

"In fact, willow trees leaning against the river will not wither. They have roots and can absorb water in the river."

Robben bounced the ashes in his hand and said for a long time: "No matter how raining it doesn't happen, the river will dry out. Like willow trees, they can't escape the fate of losing their lips and cold teeth!"

“It is said that this river has never dried.”

“It will be done if it doesn’t rain anymore!”

I sighed softly and asked, "Are you just longing for a rain?"

"eager."

"If done properly, it will turn into a fierce flood."

"I would rather drown in the ferocity of the flood than thirst in the dryness of ignorance!"

My fingers tightly pinched the photo of Rimanwen in my pocket, looked at Robben again, finally pulled it out, took a deep breath, handed it to him and said, "Take these two photos, take a look."

Robben pressed the cigarette butt in his hand and took the photo from me as if calmly...

The corners of his mouth were twitching, his lips were trembling, and he said for a while: "This is Manwen!"

I was not surprised that Robben recognized Wei Manwen at a glance because this was the woman he had been missing in his dreams. After a long time, he nodded and said, "It's Wei Manwen!"

Robben's voice choked: "How could she become like this?"

I said in a deep voice: "After she returned to Beijing from Suzhou, she suffered from...a very severe depression. It was not until half a year later that she gradually recovered... and then she went to Jinping County, Guizhou to teach in a remote mountainous area... She has suffered over the years!"

Robben's body suddenly became soft and leaned on the guardrail to prevent himself from falling down. However, the iron wall built with self-righteousness collapsed in a shocking tsunami, and his heart was broken...

Robben pressed Wei Manwen's photo tightly against his chest, raised his head, and tears fell into his clothes along his wriggling Adam's apple, and then punched the guardrail made of steel and concrete, trying to use this physical pain to relieve the severe psychological pain... He collapsed!

"Robbon, don't torture yourself!" He grabbed Robben's arm and pulled it hard, preventing him from continuing to smash the cold guardrail with his flesh and blood.

Robben said nothing, like a dull person, still punching the guardrail with his flesh, muttering in his mouth, but couldn't understand what he was saying.

cc pushed Robben to the ground like crazy, gently held his blood-stained hand, and said crying: "If you miss her, just go... Don't be so good at yourself, it's not entirely your fault!"

Robben lowered his head, trembling, but couldn't cry... And I was so powerless because such pain could not be comforted.

Le Yao came to me and choked and blamed me: "Why are you watching him destroy his hands without stopping?"

"If it were me, I would do this, and I would feel better."

Le Yao seemed to agree with my statement, turned to Robben and said coldly: "Roben, you deserve... to be like this now!"

Robben raised his head and looked at Le Yao. Suddenly he lay on the ground, crying heart-wrenchingly...

Le Yao bit her lips and said softly: "Cry enough. After crying, remember to face up to the fate of herself and her. At worst, you can go to the ends of the world to find her and tell her: For so many years, you have always loved her, but you always hide like a fool..."

Robben gradually calmed down, with tears in his eyes helping him clean the wound with disinfectant, and then wrapped it with gauze, but the shocking trauma was left behind.

After smoking a cigarette, Robben asked me without a trace of expression: "Which mountainous area in Jinping County is she in?"

I looked at Le Yao and waited for her to answer for me.

"In Huochong Village, Jinping County, the traffic is poor and very remote."

Robben stood up from the ground and immediately walked towards his room. I followed him into the room. He had already packed his luggage. I didn't stop him, but just asked, "Can you leave now?"

"I just want to see her soon, and I don't want to wait for a second!"

"There's so complicated there. I'll go with you and I'll take care of you on the way."

"Need not."

I ignored his rejection and said, "Wait for me, I'll pack my luggage now."

At this time, he also entered the room and Le Yao said, "Robert, go together, we friends must accompany you in such a big deal, and an explanation."

Robben finally stopped his movements.

cc nodded and said, "I want to meet her, and I need to figure out why you use your life to love her, not me."

Robben did not refuse, just nodded, and then packed up his luggage. This trip to Guizhou inevitably began. At this moment, I believe that Le Yao and I, who are about to leave, were also curious about the woman named Wei Manwen!

Three years later, I met Robben again and learned about the truth about Robben forcing her to leave Suzhou. What mentality would she have?...I really hope that she can forget the inevitable grievances and not hesitate.
