Aim at That Star - Chapter 87
At the first moment of seeing Zhuo Yu, Shen Wencheng’s first reaction was:
“Zhuo Yu, are you following me?”
He stood up, and for the first time there was such obvious shock and anger on his face: “If there is something you can’t say in the message, or if I offended you, you have to keep on pestering everyone like this. not happy?”
“What am I obsessing about not letting go?”
The girl was carrying a mountaineering bag and pulling her suitcase, with a very innocent expression on her dusty little face, “Brother, don’t just spit blood just because you have an open mouth, okay?”
“Then what are you doing here?”
“I’m here to travel. I’ve lived in a big city for a long time, and I want to find a place to explore and explore the natural scenery, can’t I?”
Shen Wencheng sneered speechlessly: “Zhuo Yu, do you believe what you say?”
“Why don’t I believe it? Of course I believe it.”
The girl curled her lips, “When you were in England, you told me that you and Sister Lin went shopping arm in arm just because of compatriotism. Don’t I believe the same reason?”
“……what on earth do you want?”
He put down the noodle bowl in his hand and took a deep breath, “It’s been so long, and we have long since broken up. Why are you suddenly running over to turn over the old account?”
“Let’s not say whether I’m here to turn over the old accounts. Even if I were, if you didn’t do anything wrong, why are you so worried?”
The smile on Zhuo Yu’s face could not be said to be polite or sarcastic, “And this mountain is not yours, can’t I just take a tour?”
Travel your mother forced to travel.
Shen Wencheng resisted the urge to speak swear words, expressionless: “I just heard you ask someone for my address.”
“I asked.”
Zhuo Yu’s good deeds are like salt, “We are college classmates after all. Can’t I come to travel and visit alumni along the way?”
“Zhuo Yu, you…”
“Wencheng, who are you talking to?”
Before the remaining half of his accusation came out, his mother came out with two glasses of sugar water.
It directly interrupted the anger that filled his stomach behind him.
Mother Shen was originally there to clean up the room for Lin Shiyu tonight, but she came out when she heard the movement, wanting to see if any villager came to visit.
As soon as I went out, I saw an unfamiliar and beautiful little girl, dressed brightly, which made her stunned for a while.
“Hello Auntie.”
Because the other party spoke the dialect of Yunye Town, Zhuo Yu could barely understand it, but he could only show a sweet smile: “My name is Zhuo Yu, an alumnus of Shen Wencheng and Lin Shiyu, I am here today. While traveling, knowing that Shen’s home is here, I maliciously came over to say hello to you.”
Mother Shen saw the girl’s face was very kind, not like some villain, and subconsciously turned her head to her son: “Wencheng, what did this girl say?”
Shen Wencheng raised his eyebrows and was silent for a moment, but he didn’t really want to answer.
But looking at her mother’s puzzled and bewildered face, she still repeated it to her in dialect.
Shen’s mother immediately laughed into a wrinkled face: “Hey, alright, okay, little classmate, are you hungry, do you need me to serve you a bowl of noodles?”
“…My mom asked if you wanted noodles.”
“No need, auntie.”
Zhuo Yu smiled, “I already ate it before I got in the car. If you can, just pour me a glass of water.”
As a virtuous wife and loving mother who hopes her son will become a dragon, Mother Shen is very supportive of her son’s career development.
Although she didn’t know Zhuo Yu, she knew that the girl’s dress and demeanor were even more expensive than Lin Shiyu, and she knew that she would never be a child of an ordinary family.
What’s more, he is still an alumnus of Wencheng, so he is also a famous college student, isn’t he?
Such a person, as a mother, of course she has to make a good relationship for her son.
It’s not certain that Wencheng’s work and life in big cities will depend on the connections of his alumni.
So Shen’s mother went into the house very enthusiastically to pour water, Shen Wencheng’s face was gloomy, he glanced at Zhuo Yu lightly, and then followed his mother into the house.
There must be something to say, so that the family can be mentally prepared and always be alert to the dangerous bomb Zhuo Yu.
Although in fact, Zhuo Yu was not very concerned about what Shen Wencheng would tell his mother.
I don’t care how the other party plans to guard against her.
After all, she made a special trip to Yunye Town after traveling through mountains and rivers, and she didn’t come to Xingshi to ask for guilt.
Just then, a little girl moved a small bench beside her with a cowardly expression: “Sister, sit down.”
To Zhuo Yu’s surprise, she actually spoke Mandarin.
Although there are some dialect accents, it does not affect understanding.
She hurriedly took the small stool and sat down. After thinking for a while, she took out a piece of chocolate from her backpack and handed it to her: “Thank you, my sister invited you to eat chocolate. What’s your name?”
“My name is Shen Wenmei, yes, yes…”
“She is Shen Wencheng’s younger sister.”
Xu Shi could see the little girl’s nervousness and embarrassment, and Lin Shiyu helped introduce, “She is twelve years old this year, she used to be a student I took, but she didn’t continue to study after graduating from elementary school, and now she is in the school. Help with some work at home, a very well-behaved child, you…don’t scare her.”
Zhuo Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
She keenly noticed that when Zhuo Yu said that Shen Wenmei did not continue to study after graduating from elementary school, the little girl’s face clearly showed a little anxiety and inferiority.
Obviously Lin Shiyu’s words touched her sore spot.
This is not like what Sister Lin, who has always been considerate, sensitive and considerate, would say and do.
It seemed that her sudden visit this time not only caused Shen Wencheng, but also caused some turmoil to her.
Zhuo Yu raised his eyes lightly, instead of looking at Lin Shiyu, who was on guard, his eyes fell on Shen Wenmei with a warm smile: “Don’t be afraid, my sister is not a bad person, she is your brother’s classmate, this time I came to travel and sketch, Just to visit your brother by the way.”
Zhuo Yu’s appearance is sweet, his voice is crisp, and with his deliberately soft expression and tone, he is like a harmless little lamb.
At once, the timidity in the little girl’s heart receded a lot.
She hesitated for a while and asked curiously, “What is sketching?”
“Sketching is…”
……
Zhuo Yu and the little girl chatted for a long time.
Because I just asked Shen Wencheng’s mother for water, and now the other party has really poured in water – although it took a long time to pour the water – it is not good for her to just walk away.
And now there are only two people in front of him, Zhuo Yu is not willing to waste words with Lin Shiyuxu and Wei She, so naturally there is only one Shen Wenmei who can communicate.
And while she was talking, she found that Shen Wencheng, the younger sister, knew a lot.
For example, when did Lin Shiyu come to Yunye Mountain, how good was the relationship with her brother when he was staying at her house, and how did he help his brother with homework and prepare study materials, so as to help her brother get admitted to a famous university .
And after her brother went to college, Lin Shiyu and her brother came back home a few times. How much her parents liked Lin Shiyu, her mother even secretly prepared a red bed, planning to wait until Lin Shiyu and her brother When they got married, it was given to Lin Shiyu as their wedding ceremony.
Zhuo Yu listened quietly, his face still smiling, but the emotion in his eyes became colder and colder, and in the end there was only indifference.
During this period, Lin Shiyu tried countless times to interrupt Shen Wenmei’s “revelations” like pouring beans in a bamboo tube, but Zhuo Yu brought them back with a steady stream of snacks.
It’s too obvious that she can’t stop it. She was anxious for a long time, and finally she was weak, so she could only break the jar, bit her lip and lowered her head not to speak.
By the time Shen Wencheng and Shen’s mother finally finished pouring water out of the house, Zhuo Yu had already eaten the entire “love melon” between him and Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu frowned, sighed, and cast a sad look at Shen Wencheng.
But it’s a pity.
Shen Lanyan didn’t know why, so she still put on a cold and white moonlight posture, watching Zhuo Yu’s calm tone: “My mother asked you if you have a place to eat at night, if not, you can eat at our house.”
Zhuo Yu’s eyes suddenly turned and fell on Shen’s mother beside him.
She still had a warm smile full of wrinkles on her face, looking at her with more eager eyes than before, but instead of talking to her rashly, she stood beside her son in a regular manner, her back was slightly curved, and she looked ingratiating.
Zhuo Yu looked a little sad all of a sudden.
She asked Shen Wencheng, “Didn’t you tell your mother what happened before the two of us?”
“…”
The boy was silent for two seconds, then frowned, “I said, that’s all in the past. Even if you’re not willing to turn over the old accounts, it’s just a private matter for the two of us. There’s no need to involve the elders.”
Zhuo Yu nodded: “I think so too.”
She smiled, her expression was calm, and she could not see any resentment or resentment, as if she was really just a strange alumni who came to visit because she was passing by: “Then I won’t bother, to be honest, I’ve wanted to try it for a long time. If you taste the original ecological food grown by yourself, it must taste very natural.”
fart.
The big cities are not without organic food green restaurants.
In the last half semester of her preparation for the college entrance examination, her sister-in-law also went to the countryside every week to collect eggs for her households.
During that time, she ate raw, nutritious and healthy green food until she felt nauseous.
However, Shen Wencheng’s mother must have spent a lot of thought on this dinner.
It looks like a table full of dazzling arrays, the colors are neatly arranged, and the aroma is also strong. It is a very qualified or even over-spec banquet.
Zhuo Yu also realized for the first time how heartfelt the words Shen Wencheng said when he quarreled in the Cold War, “I was poor since I was a child, and you and Jiang Shi are not the same as you.”
I also realized that maybe the unwillingness and inferiority she once thought she had mistaken were not wrong.
From the very beginning, Shen Wencheng was different from the Shen Wencheng she thought.
She just fell in love with the image that she described by herself, and all her heart and sweetness were made up by her own brain, as if she was playing an Otome game of unilaterally inputting feelings.
The reason for abandoning the tour was that the screenwriter was tired and was not in the mood to write any more, so the target person for the strategy collapsed.
She looked at the piece of duck meat that Shen Wencheng’s mother took in the bowl, and suddenly asked, “Shen Wencheng, when did you and Lin Shiyu get together?”
The two people whose names were called at the dinner table were startled at the same time.
Shen Wencheng held back his anger: “Zhuo Yu, the elders are all here, don’t make trouble, everyone is not good-looking.”
“I don’t think I’m making trouble.”
She raised her eyes, “I’m just asking normal questions. As a poor person who was married, don’t I even have the right to know the truth? Besides, don’t your parents understand Mandarin?”
…It’s a fact that his parents don’t understand Mandarin very well.
but,
“What is a form marriage?”
Shen Wencheng felt absurd and rubbed his brows helplessly, “When did I do this. Zhuo Yu, don’t make trouble without reason.”
“I said, I didn’t plan to make trouble with you. I just wanted to chat with you and Sister Lin calmly.”
Zhuo Yu rested his chin with one hand, his tone was slow and serene, as if he was seriously reminiscing about the past, “We met when we were freshmen, right? I chased you first. At that time, I asked you if you had a girlfriend, and you said No. I asked you again if you had someone you liked, and you said no. I asked if I could chase you, you didn’t agree or object, just glanced at me, turned around and left.”
“…”
“Later I chased you for half a year, greeting you every morning and evening goodbye, waiting for you downstairs in your dormitory with breakfast in the morning class, taking a seat for you during weekend self-study, and doing all the things that an infatuated male partner would do. Over and over, but you are still that cold and indifferent look, without the slightest wave. Just when I was about to give up, you don’t know why, one day you suddenly changed your mind and came to me on a snowy day , said he agreed to my confession. I thought in my heart what kind of idol drama plot is this? I was moved to death, but now that I think about it, it should be something unpleasant happened between you and Sister Lin Shiyu that day, right?”
“…”
The boy remained silent, drooping his eyes and refusing to answer.
Lin Shiyu next to him was also, quietly, biting his lip, as if counting rice grains in a bowl.
Needless to say, the answer can be guessed by anyone with a long brain.
“In the process of interacting with you, I thought I had a clear conscience towards you and this relationship, and I did the best I could. Even if I don’t talk about my sincerity, at least I’ll give you more money than me. I spent several times more. But you don’t seem to be too cold, you don’t want to hold hands with me, you don’t want to chat with me, you don’t want to take pictures with me, and even when you walk together on the road, you have to keep a little distance from me. , as if falling in love with me was a very humiliating thing. I didn’t think that I was deeply involved in it at the time, but now that I think about it, it was really strange enough. To be honest, I have always been curious, in this process, how much It’s been a year, have you really never felt any guilt against me?”
There was silence at the table.
Shen’s father and Shen’s mother had long noticed that the atmosphere between the young people was not right, and honestly didn’t dare to say much.
Shen Wenmei, who could understand Mandarin, was not allowed to eat at the table. She had already taken a bowl to the main room to play with the tablet that Lin Shiyu brought back.
This confrontation was frank and fierce, and it was all alone.
Shen Wencheng took a deep breath: “Zhuo Yu, I’m sorry about the past, it was not my intention to hurt you, and the choice of many things is beyond my control… In short, I hope you can come out as soon as possible, We don’t have to live in the past all the time.”
“Then can I ask you a question.”
“you say.”
“Have you ever liked me?”
“Zhuo Yu…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t pester you or take revenge on you, I just want an answer.”
She tilted her head and thought, “Or, can you tell me, when you agreed to stay with me, was it because you really liked it, or was it just a play on a whim and simply wanted to find someone to heal your wounds?”
“…”
Shen Wencheng was silent for a long time.
In the end he sighed: “I’m sorry Zhuo Yu, but in my heart, I have always regarded you as a very close sister.”
……it is good.
This time I really understand.
It was finally completely dead.
Zhuo Yu suddenly felt that his hard work was worth the money.
I saw with my own eyes what the real Shen Wencheng looked like, and heard with my own ears the absurd truth that was misunderstood by her.
As if in an instant, the big stone in my heart was unloaded, and I felt extremely relaxed at this moment.
What she likes is the cold-hearted scholar who came from a poor background but doesn’t degrade himself too much, doesn’t care about the eyes of the people around him, has a clear goal, works hard, prefers to do rather than talk, and proves himself with actions and results.
He is the kind big brother who is warm and sincere in his heart, although his face is cold and he can’t say good things.
Instead of this indecisive, hypocritical scumbag who uses excessive self-esteem to cover up his inner inferiority, and who is coy in words and deeds.
It’s because she has bad eyesight and can’t see people.
It’s not that love can’t be discussed well because it’s not well thought out.
The little girl bent her lips, wiped away the tears that were about to fall into her rice bowl from the corners of her eyes, and stood up: “Okay, thank you for your honesty. Let’s do this for now, and we will still be strangers in the future, and we will not see each other. I hope you can change your mind in the future and stop being such a scumbag to other girls.”
– Speaking of.
The tablet that Lin Shiyu handed to Shen Wenmei just now was the one she bought for Shen Wencheng.
She remembered it very clearly, because it was a gift to Shen Wencheng to celebrate his professional victory, so a crown was specially printed on the back.
And the following very naive sentence: Brother Shen Niubi!
Gee, sure enough.
As expected, she was like what Jiang Shi said, digging out her heart and lungs to raise Xiaobailian, but Xiaobailian took her money to raise her little lover.
In the end, she was the stupidest one to take advantage of.
Forget it.
Anyway, it is also his own pocket money, and the water poured out of the money that is spilled is considered to be the gold and krypton of the game.
She Zhuo Yu will be able to earn it back one day sooner or later.
At dusk, the setting sun had already fallen to the distant mountains, and the little girl Zhuo Yu was walking on the mountain road bitterly.
Although she put down her chopsticks very coolly and left, before leaving, she took two hundred yuan in cash from her pocket and threw it into Shen Wencheng’s arms: “Food expenses.”
The whole aura is particularly noble and glamorous.
But when I really want to walk on the mountain road with a suitcase and a mountaineering bag, I still feel a little bit of hard work.
But there is no way, to get to the bus station, at least you have to leave the village first.
To get out of the village, you have to go down the mountain road.
When she was going up the mountain, a kind old uncle helped her bring her luggage up with an ox cart.
Now that she is leaving, the mountain road is empty, let alone vehicles such as horses and horses, she can’t even see a ghost.
“Help – help – help!”
Just as Zhuo Yu was sweating and enjoying himself, a sharp female voice suddenly came from the front.
Very standard Mandarin.
The word cavity is round, and it is obviously a northerner.
As soon as Zhuo Yu looked up, he saw a woman with messy clothes and hair **** with thick ropes running towards her with a grim look.
With the bright red sunset and the quiet forest, it looks very strange and scary.
She subconsciously took out a knife and a bottle of anti-wolf spray from her pocket, and stepped back a few steps: “What are you doing? Who are you? I have a knife, don’t come here, be careful I hurt you.”
“Do you have a knife?”
The woman’s eyes brightened, and her tears streamed down, “Are you a traveler? Sister, can you help me! Help me! Cut the rope for me, they will catch up after a while, please. Your sister! Help me, okay?!”
“You… you speak clearly, how come I don’t understand at all.”
“I was kidnapped by them.”
The woman choked up, “I’m an art student in S city. I originally came here with my classmates to travel and sketch, but I was accidentally singled out. I was in a hurry to go out. I’m dizzy and sold into this mountain, they’re going to tie me up and marry a cripple, I escaped while they weren’t paying attention, I’m underage, they’re breaking the law, sister, I beg you, Please save me, please!”
