Granting You A Dreamlike Life - Chapter 64
A banner reading “Miss Lin Ruomeng’s New Movie Tour” hung high above the lobby.
Lin Qikai stood on the stage and spoke on behalf of the Lin family: “Thank you for your personal arrival in your busy schedule. I believe everyone has known this time. After Lin Ruomeng, the jewel of the Lin family, lost his childhood, he finally returned to our Family, and what makes us even more happy is that Ruomeng has become a shining star in the film world through her own efforts. Ruomeng’s return to the family is very grateful to my father Mr. Lin Daoshan…”
Lin Qikai paused when he said that, sitting in the first row, Lin Daoshan, got up and bowed in greeting, and applauded from the audience.
“So this time, our Lin family decided to invest in the new movie “Remains of the Sea” based on the life story of my sister Lin Ruomeng. All the proceeds from the box office will be donated to charities such as Yuyingtang to express our family’s gratitude. Love, use our little love to do something for social welfare.”
The audience applauded again, Lin Daoshan and Xu Rui’an smiled at each other. And Xu Xingyuan never left Lin Qikai on stage from the beginning to the end.
Lin Ruomeng, who was sitting with Huang Xinghan, looked very absent and a little lost. She watched Xu Xingyuan staring at Lin Qikai in a daze, thinking of herself and Luo Fusheng.
Lin Daoshan looked at her daughter’s absence, and he was concerned. During this period, Ruo Meng and Huang Xinghan, the custard boy, got too close. Although it is understandable that the two of them have work cooperation, but they often make private meetings in private.
This Huang Xinghan is not bad. He has created a world in Shanghai, and many ladies and ladies in Greater Shanghai favor him. But in Lin Daoshan’s eyes, he always felt that no one was worthy of his daughter.
Lin Qikai stepped off the stage and walked towards Xu Xingyuan, who was dressed up, naturally took her hand. Xu Xingyuan’s smile became even deeper, looking sad in Lin Ruomeng’s eyes.
Since Lin Ruomeng returned to Lin’s house, Xu Xingyuan has seen the most. My brother is busy and always ask her to accompany Xu Xingyuan. They went to art exhibitions together, to listen to the show, and sometimes Xu Xingyuan would accompany her to the studio to film. After coming and going, the two have similar temperaments and become best friends.
She likes her sister-in-law the most. Xu Xingyuan is the same age as her, but much more innocent than her. She is a eldest lady who is really raised in a deep and simple mind. It’s sincere to anyone who is good .
Most importantly, she really loves her brother. Unfortunately, no matter how good the role of the fiancé, the brother, is acting. Because he looked at Xu Xingyuan the same way he looked at himself, except that she was a younger sister. Lin Ruomeng sighed, why do lovers always suffer so much?
Xu Xingyuan and Lin Qikai walked hand in hand to greet Lin Daoshan. “Hello, Uncle Lin! Hello, Miss Lin!”
Lin Daoshan nodded in satisfaction. “Yuanyuan, I haven’t seen you for a while. I have become more beautiful. It is the one who will be the bride soon.”
Xu Xingyuan smiled shyly while pinching her kerchief. “Thank you, uncle. My brother met some acquaintances on the road and talked a few more words. I first came to Ruomeng to talk to him.”
“You two played the best when you were kids. It’s better to see each other after so many years. Okay. You can talk about your little sisters. I will help you take away these eyesores.” Lin Daoshan joked both Lin Qikai and Huang Xinghan. Shout away.
Xu Xingyuan happily dragged Lin Ruomeng’s hand. The two walked out of the house to let the wind out.
“Is there something on my mind?” Unexpectedly, when Xu Xingyuan looked at her brother wholeheartedly, she was distracted to see her.
Lin Ruomeng shook her head and smiled at Xu Xingyuan. “You have something on your mind, right?”
Xu Xingyuan pointed at herself for unknown reasons. “I?”
“Every time you see you, your eyes are always on my brother. Is he so good-looking?”
Xu Xingyuan was shy. “He is the best-looking in the world in my heart.”
Lin Ruomeng suddenly a little envious of Xu Xingyuan’s way, never expressing her love and joy with stubbornness. Even if the whole world was laughing at her wishful thinking, she never denied her intentions.
“I think that’s how I like a person. Even if you can’t get close, you will be happy if you look at him from a distance.”
“Really? Even if you can’t walk very close and watch from a distance, will you be happy? What if there is an insurmountable deep hatred between them?”
Xu Xingyuan didn’t know who she was referring to, but she still helped her seriously: “What kind of deep hatred?”
“For example, the grievances of the previous generation… the enmity of killing father and mother.”
Xu Xingyuan understood. That period of grievances, she was also the direct party. “Ruomeng, then… do you remember those grudges?”
Lin Ruomeng shook his head. “I don’t remember, I don’t remember anything. It’s like it has never happened. It’s all pieced together from others, and it sounds like someone else’s story.”
“If you don’t remember anything, does it mean that God wants to give you a chance to start again? Then why do you want to torture yourself with memories that you don’t remember at all?”
“But since I already know, I can no longer pretend to be ignorant. If I can’t put it down completely, we can’t be together. The same goes for him.”
“Uncle Lin has never liked Zhong Jing and Brother Fusheng walking too close.” Xu Xingyuan paused. “But it. You have seen their relationship.”
Hearing her directly mention Luo Fusheng’s name, Lin Ruomeng raised her head and looked at Xu Xingyuan’s eyes, her eyes were clear and firm. Xu Xingyuan nodded firmly to Lin Ruomeng. “Looking at a person is never with his eyes, but with his heart. If Brother Fu Sheng hated Uncle Lin, how could he have been so close to Zhong Jing these years. I believe Zhong Jing also distinguished Luo Fusheng from his father very clearly in his heart. .”
Lin Ruomeng was surprised that she had always felt that Xu Xingyuan, who was as transparent as crystal, was much more thorough than she had seen. Perhaps it is because of her simplicity that she can look at the problem in the simplest way.
“Do you know Ruomeng, in fact, I envy you and Fusheng. What stands in between me and Zhong Jing is never an external cause such as national hatred and parental destiny. But I know it is in his heart Without my position, if there is, then even if I lose my life to love him, I will not let go.”
Can you overcome everything as long as you have each other’s place in your heart? Lin Ruomeng recalled that Luo Fusheng gave his life to protect each other along the way, and he walked forward with a heavy burden in the dark in order to guard this country. She always thought that what she was asking for was just a lover who could gently care for her and join hands for life. But since her family broke down and the country broke, she suddenly realized that the love she wanted was a man with iron shoulders like Luo Fusheng. Even if they want them to give up their little love for this righteousness, she is willing. As long as you can stand beside such a man and fight alongside him.
“Thank you.” Lin Ruomeng thanked her sincerely, but found a figure flashed behind the flower stand, and someone was eavesdropping.
“Who is there?”
Xu Xingcheng, who was hiding in the dark, thought he had been discovered, and walked away quickly. Lin Qikai walked out from behind the flower stand.
Lin Ruomeng’s expression relaxed: “It’s my brother. Why are you eavesdropping on us?”
Lin Qikai obviously heard their conversation just now, but was embarrassed to admit it. “I…no…I want to call you back, what are you talking about?”
Just as Lin Ruomeng wanted to answer, Xu Xingyuan immediately interrupted her: “Nothing!” She completely lost her composure just now.
Lin Ruomeng gave her a funny look, and Xu Xingyuan blushed and lowered her head.
“You two must have something to say. Talk slowly. I’m going in.” Lin Ruomeng sly trot away and left.
In the banquet hall, Lin Daoshan held champagne and clinked glasses with Huang Xinghan. “Mr. Huang’s appreciation and guidance to Ruomeng, Ruomeng has already told me about it. Lin is very grateful.”
“Yes, she is a very promising actor.”
“Hey, Chollima often has it, but Bole doesn’t often have it!”
“Ruomeng has a good work and a good character. I discovered this new star and said that it is to add light to my face.”
The two of you came to me for a while, and finally came to the subject.
“However, I am a father. Since I was young, I have been strict with Lin Qikai, hoping that he will achieve a great cause in the future, even if he sacrifices his life for the country. I Lin Mou will not say a word. But my daughter is different from my son. Dreaming to be happy all her life and stay away from all dangers. She has been lost for so many years and suffered a lot. I can no longer bear the pain of gain and loss for her. Can Mr. Huang understand?”
Huang Xinghan’s eyes deepened. “Of course I understand.”
“Mr. Huang is the one who wants to do important things for the country. I am bound to Lin if I need help in the future. The only request is not to involve the little girl in.”
“I understand.” Huang Xinghan raised his glasses, and the two clinked glasses. Huang Xinghan calmly observed Lin Daoshan.
How much does this old official of the Nanjing government know about them? No matter how much he knows, the only certainty is that he will not betray himself for the time being, because his baby daughter and them are in the same boat. When Lin Ruomeng was selected in the primaries, besides her own tenacious mind and knowledge of righteousness, more importantly, she had the strong backing of the Lin family.
After the banquet was over, Lin Daoshan drank tea in the hall, and his servant stepped forward to report. “Master, there is a man who claims to be a young lady’s brother who insists to see you. I am afraid that his ranting will not affect him well, so I have brought him in on his own terms and waited outside the door.”
Lin Daoshan frowned and nodded.
The servant led Duan Tianci into it. This once stunning young man has not seen him for more than half a year, crawling in the hall like a beggar. “Master Lin, give me some more money. For the sake of Tianying, oh no, Miss Ruomeng. Lend me another hundred oceans. Otherwise, I will be killed by the debt collector!”
Lin Daoshan’s eyes showed disgust. When Jiu Suihong died, he gave Duan Tianci a large sum of money, enough to eat and drink for the rest of his life. But he has spent most of his time on eating, drinking, and gambling.
“The last time. Next time you dare to make trouble in front of the Lin Mansion, I’ll break your leg.” Lin Daoshan let out a cruel word, and let his servants take a hundred oceans to him.
Duan Tianci held a gift box full of dangdang in both hands, and walked out excitedly.
Looking at Duan Tianci’s back, Lin Daoshan frowned. “This kid is greedy, courageous, and he knows a lot. I am afraid that it will be disadvantageous to Ruomeng in the future.”
“Master meant…” Lin Daoshan’s personal guard heard the hint in his words.
Lin Daoshan nodded. “Well, go!”
Duan Tianci was walking down the street, muttering in his mouth. “The casino always loses yesterday. Feng Shui is not good. Today I have to change one.”
Suddenly, two men in short black suits blocked Duan Tianci’s path and forced him to a corner. Duan Tianci panicked. “What do you want to do? I have paid back the casino money!”
The man took out the knife, and without a word, slammed Duan Tianci fiercely.
Duan Tianci instinctively took out the set of Wusheng when practicing kung fu, and actually avoided it.
Another person came forward to make up the knife, Duan Tianci screamed and ran away.
One head hit Xu Xingcheng, who had just returned from the army, and Duan Tianci had several knives in his body, covered in blood. “What are you doing!”
The two saw that it was Xu Xingcheng, seeing that the situation was not good, and immediately fled in the opposite direction.
Xu Xingcheng stepped forward to check and saw Duan Tianci fainted.
With a bandage wrapped around his body, Duan Tianci, who had been stopped bleeding, slowly opened his eyes and woke up, and found that Xu Xingcheng was sitting beside him.
Thinking of what happened in Xu’s house that night, he had an instinctive aversion to this house. “Why am I here?”
With a slight movement, Duan Tianci felt severe pain in his body and frowned.
“Ask yourself, who did you provoke?”
Duan Tianci thought for a while and shook his head. “do not know.”
“You are so confused, you don’t even know who you provoke, how can I protect you?”
Duan Tianci looked at him in surprise. He had never cursed this young master less before. Would he be so kind? “You protect me?”
“Yes, I admit that we had a lot of prejudice and misunderstandings for Ruomeng before, but now Ruomeng and Luo Fusheng have got together. We are also a pair of difficult brothers and sisters.”
Speaking of Lin Ruomeng, Duan Tianci’s eyes darkened, she should be his wife! “Heh. The two of us are fighting snipes and clams, but the Luo Fusheng fisherman takes advantage.”
“Until the end, the outcome is undecided.” If the barracks taught him anything, I’m afraid this is the sentence. As long as he doesn’t give up, no one can judge him to lose. “In short, you are Ruomeng’s brother. The Duan family’s kindness to Ruomeng’s nurturing is a fact that no one can change. You can rest assured to heal your wounds here.”
Xu Xingcheng pretended to be concerned and took out a pipe, lit it, and handed it to Duan Tianci. “I know you are addicted to cigarettes. It’s hard to live without money for big cigarettes, right?”
Duan Tianci took a trembling hand and took a sharp breath. This guy is much more advanced than what he had previously smoked. The entrance is pure and the effect comes quickly and fiercely. The wound doesn’t seem to hurt anymore.
“In our medicine, there is an analgesic called morphine, which is manufactured by chemical separation and synthesis from opium. It can relieve a lot of the suffering of patients. There is no absolute good or bad in the world. It depends on people. Can you make good use of it?” I don’t know if this is morphine or Duan Tianci.
Xu Xingcheng was muttering something in his ear, and he couldn’t listen to it at all. Immersed in the hallucinations brought by opium, my whole person was limp on the bed.
“As long as you listen to me obediently, there will be heavy cigarettes to smoke anytime and anywhere in the future.” Xu Xingcheng took away the pipe in his hand with satisfaction.
Xu Rui’an was sitting on the sofa with the newspaper in his hand, but his eyes were closed and he had a nightmare.
[There is darkness in the dream.
Xu Rui’an walked in the dark.
Xiao Lin Ruomeng’s big eyes blinked at him.
Xia Anni’s voice echoed. “I know it’s you, Xu Rui’an. I’ll be a ghost and I won’t let you go.”
Liu Shuzhen’s painful cries were also intertwined.
“Xu Rui’an, you must die!”]
Xu Rui’an was awakened and found that the newspaper in his hand had become a crumpled ball.
Xu Xingcheng passed the living room with a water glass, and found Xu Rui’an strange, couldn’t help hiding.
Xu Ruian got up and walked out. Xu Xingcheng secretly put down the water glass and followed out.
The dungeon door opened, Xu Ruian walked in, turned on the light, and the light shone on a man lying on the ground.
Xu Ruian walked over and pulled her face up.
Xu Xingcheng, who followed Xu Rui’an and walked into the dungeon, just hid behind the pillar when he saw his mother’s face and almost screamed in surprise. He bit his palm tightly, and tears flowed uncontrollably. mother!
Liu Shuzhen asked gritted her teeth. “What did you do to come to me?”
This dungeon is like a place where Xu Rui’an stores his nightmares. He has brought all the dark secrets here over the years to tell Liu Shuzhen.
“Xu Rui’an, I am not a compassionate Buddha. Not only will I not redeem you. On the contrary, I will curse you every day for not having a good death. After you die, you will be thrown into the eighteenth hell and you will never be able to turn over! Even a Buddha. Forgive me. No beast like you.”
Xu Rui’an laughed. “It’s a pity that even a mad woman wouldn’t take it seriously. If that’s the case, I’ll tell you a little bit more, it doesn’t hurt.”
Xu Ruian walked a few steps in the small space before standing still. “Lin Ruomeng is back.”
Liu Shuzhen was taken aback for a moment: “Xiao Ruomeng?”
“She really looks like Annie when she grows up. She also became a movie star like her mother.”
“Up to now, your coveted sister Anne’s guilty heart is still not dead. However, your good days are not a few days away. Sister Anne must be alive in the sky, bless Ruomeng to come back. Do you think about seeing Ruomeng? Annie, have you had a nightmare? Even if your conscience has been flogged thousands of times, it will not be an exaggeration.”
Xu Rui’an shook her head, she still didn’t understand him for so many years. Sure enough, it was too stupid. What’s the use of having an appearance similar to Annie. “I don’t have nightmares! On the contrary, when I think about it, I still feel that I have made this move so well!”
“I used Annie’s death to make Lin Daoshan think that Hong Zhengbao sent Luo Jing to kill Xia Anni, and let Lin Daoshan personally kill Hong Zhengbao’s right-hand man Luo Jing! I successfully tore a crack in Honglin’s family and let the Xu family live Shanghai has a firm foothold, all this is worth it!”
Xu Xingcheng was shocked and frowned.
“Xu Rui’an, you think you have realized your trick. But now Ruomeng has come back, except for me, Ruomeng also saw the fact that you killed her mother! Your honest face will finally be stripped off!”
Xu Ruian laughed loudly. “Look at you, I gave you Lin Ruomeng’s hope. Do you want to grab this life-saving straw and get up, climb out of this dungeon, and see the sun again? I tell you Liu Shuzhen, dream! Lin Ruomeng I don’t remember anything. I’m just her kind Uncle Xu now!”
Liu Shuzhen also sneered, the laughter even overshadowed Xu Rui’an. Xu Rui’an became furious and picked up Liu Shuzhen by the collar. “Why are you laughing?”
“I laughed at your fear! If it weren’t for fear, you wouldn’t fall asleep late at night, and you would ask me to talk to me. If it weren’t for fear, you wouldn’t torture me, who has no power to fight back again and again. Xu Rui’an , You are afraid, you are afraid that this power will fall instantly, you are afraid of your true face being ruthlessly revealed, you are afraid of going to hell, you are afraid of your own ugly heart!”
“Shut up!” Xu Rui’an was mad, covering her mouth frantically and beating her fiercely.
Xu Xingcheng was watching and was about to rush out to stop the beast’s behavior. However, he stopped abruptly and closed his eyes in pain. It seemed that he was trembling when he saw the reappearance of his father’s domestic violence and mother in his childhood.
Xu Xingcheng covered his mouth, held back tears, looked at the key to the death jail on Xu Ruian’s waist, and then reluctantly left.
The sound of Xu Ruian beating Liu Shuzhen violently came from behind.
Mother, I will definitely save you, but not now, you must hold back!
