Chapter 593: The Miserable Robben
After a 6-hour trip, the train that Mi Cai and I took finally arrived in Suzhou. At this time, the night had already enveloped the huge city, looking full of black empty, but when those people carrying or dragging their luggage rushed out of the train station, there was a hurried and human atmosphere in the empty night.
Mi Cai and I had almost no luggage, so we held hands and walked towards the exit easily with the crowd. Finally, we stopped in front of the square. Mi Cai answered the phone and I stood on the other side waiting for her.
Five minutes later, she finished the call and said to me: "I'm going to Zhuomei now, you can go back and rest for a while."
"Is it still time to have a meal together?"
Mi Cai looked at the time, then shook her head and said, "I'm going to rush over within half an hour. I'll solve it as soon as possible and call you."
"Okay, I'm going to go to the company to deal with the things I've accumulated over the past two days."
Mi Cai nodded and then walked towards the taxi waiting area. I kept staring at her back, feeling sad for the brief separation, and then took out a cigarette and lit it, watching the taxi carrying her completely disappear from my sight.
In my melancholy, I realized that I was so attached to her. Maybe in the future, no matter whether the separation is real or only exists in my fantasy, when I think of it, my heart will still feel tearful... Then, in order to protect myself, I will always keep her by my side, give her all my strength to give her happiness, and then turn her into something like me, and I can't live without her.
The ash in my hand gradually fell off the smoke. I walked towards the trash can not far away, and slapped the cigarette at the extinguishing place of the trash can, but in the gap between the crowd, I saw the guardrail where I once kissed Le Yao passionately... I was a little palpitations!
That snowy night was always clear in my mind, but I didn’t often think of it. I always thought it was not a mistake, but a farewell that I couldn’t help but say goodbye. We really had no intersection at all. Although the contact list still exists in the other party’s address book, there is an emotion that was born with the fate of forgetting. Le Yao and I have been rushing towards this fate during our years of interaction. Finally, with her marriage as the node, we finally came to the end, each of us forgetting each other and occasionally remembering.
But I will still deeply bless her, just changing to a more silent way.
Maybe I was thinking too much, but my body was still still. I couldn't stand it because of the cold wind on the winter night. I subconsciously took out the necklace called "Breaking Wave Sail" from the necklace that Mi Cai gave me. I knew it was a psychological effect, but I still felt a warm current surge in my body, as if she was in my arms, pressed into my heart, giving me warmth. This feeling was very subtle and fulfilling... I didn't remember how many years ago I felt like this last time.
.........
After leaving the train station, I never stopped in the middle and went straight to the company. Because I had delayed a lot of work at Li Xiaoyun's wedding, especially after the company was on track, I couldn't finish it almost every day. I don't even doubt that once I got into work, I'm afraid the person who would go back to the old house first was Mi Cai, and now I have lost a lot of time that can be freely controlled by myself.
When I opened my email, I looked through the application reports one by one, and recorded some areas where the planning plan needed to be adjusted. I prepared to coordinate with various departments to solve the problem tomorrow. Time flew away so quickly. When I came to my senses, it was already 9 o'clock in the night, but I still didn't receive a call from Mi Cai. I think she had to deal with nothing less than mine.
I made a cup of hot tea, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, intending to relieve my tense nerves. As before, I still like to look at the opposite direction at one o'clock, because there is a residential building there, and I will see many warm pictures: some children will lie on the table in front of the windowsill to do homework, and virtuous women will make hot soup for their tired husbands. Once, I felt that these pictures were far away from me, but now I finally felt close. Maybe soon, I will have a legitimate wife and a complete family.
I picked up the teacup and took a sip, and continued to look at it...
The door was suddenly opened, and I subconsciously thought that the person coming was Jian Wei who was not used to knocking on the door, but when I turned around, Roben pulled the girl and stood behind me.
I asked Robben, "Why are you here?"
"When I saw that the lights in your office were still on, come up and sit down." Robben said as he sat down on the sofa. The girl stood timidly beside him, probably afraid of Robben. At this time, Robben looked very bad and his face looked ugly.
I looked at the girl's scattered hair and asked, "Girl, did you not have your braids today?"
The girl whispered: "Teacher Wei has returned to the small mountain village, and no one has combed my hair."
I instantly thought of where Robben's anxiety originated, and I didn't expect that the girl would hear the helplessness and confusion between us adults, so I called her assistant and asked her to take the girl to her office to comb her braids.
......
Only Robben and I were left in the office. I threw a cigarette and asked tentatively: "Why did Teacher Wei suddenly return to that small mountain village?"
Robben has always been a straightforward person. After taking a deep breath of cigarettes, he replied: "Her former fiancé had an accident and her leg broke. It was quite serious and needed surgery. She went over and took a look..."
Robben called Zhou Hang as Wei Manwen’s former fiancé, which made me capture his emotions. At this moment, he should be full of anxiety and a sense of crisis. Perhaps, Wei Manwen has confessed to him that he has always been hidden.
I asked, "Why didn't you go with me?"
"She said that Zhou Hang is emotionally unstable now and does not want to increase his emotional burden in the past..." Robben said with a look of pain, then took a deep breath of cigarettes before saying: "I owe her for the rest of my life... No matter what choice she makes, I will respect her and support her!"
"Don't say such sad words... If you can fight for it, you should fight for it. After all, you and Teacher Wei have gone through so many disasters before they get together... They have left and have completely become a past tense. Teacher Wei will leave you again. In this life, which woman can you live with with love?"
Perhaps the crisis had already existed in Robben's heart. He hugged his head with his hands in pain, and the smoke rising from his fingers kept smoking his fingers.
Seeing him silent in pain, I didn't know what to advise. The relationship between him and Wei Manwen was no longer something that bystanders could interfere with, because their attitude in relationships had surpassed the secular norm.
At this time, the office door was knocked and the door was opened after I received my signal. This time, Mi Cai was standing in front of me. She also held a thermal box in her hand. She ignored the anxious Robben, came to me, and said to me: "I bought you the Shasan Snow Pear Soup when I passed by the hotel. It is moistening. You can drink it while it is hot." Then she filled a bowl of soup for me.
Robben raised his head and said to Mi Cai, "Give me a bowl too... I feel uncomfortable with my lungs!"
The matter of leaving was angry at Robben and replied coldly: "If you have good limbs, just be strong."
