Human Greed - Chapter 89
Xu Ruoxing pinched the photo, and Li Chen was thinking: “What’s the situation? Su Yi knew you before? What does Zhou Yuanyuan mean by giving you this photo? This person was not good before, don’t…”
Before she finished speaking, Xu Ruoxing stood up suddenly, but Li Chen didn’t hold her back.
Li Chen followed behind: “Hey!”
Xu Ruoxing turned his head, looked at Li Chen, and said, “Let them take you back.”
“I’m fine.” Li Chen said, “My assistant is eating next door, so I asked her to take me home. What do you mean? Where are you going? Let me tell you, don’t quarrel with Su Yi!”
She drank too much and kept talking, and the photo just now had a big impact on her. If it was really Su Yi, wouldn’t it be when she was in high school…
Really puzzled.
Li Chen couldn’t figure out what was going on between the three of them. She watched Xu Ruoxing quickly get into the car and left before her eyes. She wanted to call Zhou Yuanyuan to ask what was going on, but she didn’t have her contact information. , I stomped my feet, so angry!
What’s the matter! Seeing that Su Yi and Xu Ruoxing finally reconciled, I’m really afraid that they will quarrel again when they go back!
Xu Ruoxing didn’t understand her painstaking efforts, and had already driven out of the hotel. The weather outside was dreary, and the temperature of the air conditioner in the car was low. When she stopped at the traffic light, she glanced at the ring, the watch, and the two cards on the co-pilot. photo.
How could there be Su Yi?
When the car whistled behind her, she came back to her senses and stepped on the accelerator. When she was almost at the door of the house, she frowned, turned the steering wheel again, and drove towards Xu’s house.
Xu’s mother was lying down, and when she heard the door opening, she was surprised: “Ruoxing?”
Seeing her, Xu Ruoxing paused and said, “Mom, where was the video tape from last time?”
Xu’s mother didn’t know why, so she said, “It’s in your room, didn’t you see it?”
Xu Ruoxing walked in a hurry that morning, and she really didn’t pay attention. She nodded, walked into the room, took the video tape and went back to the living room, looking for her previous volume. Xu Ruoxing remembered that the pajamas were received in high school. Or a sophomore? She looked down and found the recorded picture of her birthday in the first year of high school.
On the TV, one scene after another, the memories that were about to fade in her mind suddenly surged up, Li Chen smiled at the screen: “Hi, Ruoxing, I am Li Chen, I wish you a happy birthday, I will give you my birthday later.” Prepare a big cake, don’t love me too much!”
Then there is Zhou Yuanyuan.
Xu Ruoxing pressed the key, but still did not move the progress bar forward, Zhou Yuanyuan waved her hand: “Ruoxing, happy birthday!”
The rest was gone. At that time, her parents knew that Li Chen and Zhou Yuanyuan had a good relationship with her, so they specially recorded their blessings alone. Xu Ruoxing held the remote control tightly, and Xu’s mother came over: “What are you looking at?”
Xu Ruoxing looked up: “Mom, you go to bed first.”
Xu’s mother was sitting next to her. She hadn’t watched these videos for a long time. At that time, Xu Ruoxing liked to laugh. Like Li Chen, he had many friends. Later, his temper became cold.
She also felt bad, and felt nostalgic after watching these videos.
Xu Ruoxing watched every frame, wishing to take screenshots of every scene, looking for clues about the pajamas, she watched too slowly, and sometimes paused, Xu’s mother didn’t know what she was doing, wondering: “Ruoxing, What are you always doing on hold?”
Xu Ruoxing opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.
Her mind is in a mess right now, and she desperately wants to find some evidence to prove that she is not just thinking wildly. While hearing a voice: “Hello, this is a birthday present for Xu Ruoxing.”
“Hello, classmate.” Her father smiled naively: “Go in and sit, Ruoxing is inside.”
“I won’t go in.” The voice was low: “I still have something to do, uncle, please give her this gift.”
She saw a girl wearing a hat and a mask on the screen, and the camera was behind her father, so the voice was recorded clearly, but because her father blocked the camera, no specific person was captured.
But Xu Ruoxing felt it instantly.
This is Su Yi.
Even though the voice was very different from now, she recognized it.
The gift bag was exposed, and her father said, “Student, what’s your name? Thank you for letting Ruoxing go to school.”
The girl was silent for a while, then said, “My surname is Hei.”
“Why is there a surname Hei…” With a muttering voice, Xu Ruoxing froze in place as if struck by lightning.
【Why do you call me Little Xingxing? 】
[It will shine. 】
[Then I will change my pen name, I want to change it to Heiye. 】
【why? 】
[Because the stars are the brightest in the dark night, I can see you as soon as you appear. 】
The childish conversation, which was just a glimpse during her high school career, is now remembered again because of this surname. Xu Ruoxing sat on the sofa in a daze, as if her throat was strangled, her voice could not come out, her hand was tightly clutching the remote control, Her eye sockets were slightly drunk and hot, she blinked and shouted: “Mom.”
Mama Xu looked at her, and Xu Ruoxing asked, “Do you still have my high school books?”
Xu Ma thought for a while: “Is it in your bookcase? If it’s not there, it’s sold.”
After all, things from so many years ago, it is normal to be absent. Xu Ruoxing put down the remote control and ran into the room. Her vision was a little blurry. She stood by the bookcase and barely stood firm with the help of the bookcase. It was about a long forgotten story. Fragments are rushing up.
Xu Ruoxing rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the room, but she didn’t find those books in high school. Later, she remembered that Zhou Yuanyuan had borrowed many books, so after she knew what Zhou Yuanyuan had done, she sold them all, including, she and Su Yi’s initial correspondence.
That was Li Chen’s opinion. When they were in freshman year of high school, they had a school magazine and they could publish information about making friends. Li Chen liked to make trouble and registered them all. In the end, someone actually wrote to her something that no one took seriously. Letter, Li Chen said: “I can’t use your name, then I think the love letters will burst! You think of a pseudonym.”
She thought and thought, why not just call her Little Xingxing.
How casual.
She didn’t expect that she would be remembered and someone would write to her. This person would be Su Yi.
At first she didn’t care, she just replied casually, one letter a day, they didn’t exchange information, she listened more, probably knew that the girl who wrote to her was not happy, the pen name she wrote to her at first was her I forgot all about it. I only remember that she said later that she would change her pen name to Hei Ye. This pen name is not unique, but she remembered it for a long time.
Later, she asked: [Little Xingxing, if one day I am unhappy, can I go to you? 】
Xu Ruoxing replied to her: [Of course, you are unhappy, I will treat you to my favorite ice cream! 】
after that.
She has not received any news.
She also wanted to find this person, but she searched in the same school, even in the class that sent the letter, but she couldn’t find it, maybe—
That person didn’t want others to know her painful experience before, so she used a pseudonym.
That’s what she thought back then.
So I gave up the idea of looking for it again.
This break, until now.
Xu Ruoxing was holding the book, his hands were trembling so tight, he was sitting in the room, Xu’s mother looked at her worriedly, and shouted: “Ruoxing? Are you okay?”
Looking at the lost soul, I don’t know what’s going on.
Xu Ruoxing shook his head: “I’m fine.”
After speaking, Su Yi’s voice sounded in my ear: “The first time I designed pajamas, I was very good when I was in high school…”
Xu Ruoxing saw the computer on the desk, stood for two seconds, turned on the computer, went back to the room, found the pajamas, and found the brand number from the back. It was a brand specializing in pajamas. She searched for that brand and that pajamas on the Internet. , A lot of information is about selling clothes, but there is very little real information. She doesn’t give up, she scrolls down page by page, and finally sees a report on page 30—Genius designers only go to high school?
The accompanying picture is pajamas.
It is an interview record, only the dialogue, and the interviewee used the capital letter x throughout the dialogue part.
Reporter: [Hello, Ms. x, I should call you little girl, why x? 】
x: [It’s nothing, I’m used to it personally. 】
Reporter: [The little girl is quite indifferent, will she consider becoming a designer in the future? 】
X: [Yes. 】
Reporter: [Can you tell me your thoughts? 】
…
Xu Ruoxing was a little dizzy with a long list of records and dense text. She clenched the mouse and scrolled down a little bit. When she saw the last line, the reporter asked: [Then, is there a source of inspiration for designing this pajamas? 】
X: [Yes. 】
The reporter asked: [What is it, is it convenient to share it with us? 】
x: [It’s a little star. 】
a little star.
Xu Ruoxing’s heart was hit violently. At this moment, suddenly, she was hit hard. She gritted her teeth in pain. The blood all over her body coagulated, and suddenly rushed, and started to rush. Xu Ruoxing’s fingertips holding the mouse were numb, back and forth Rolling, her face turned pale, and her eyes were red.
Su Yi.
They actually met so early, so long ago.
If she had been more careful at the beginning, wouldn’t she have missed so many years?
Xu Ruoxing blinked, the screen was blurry in front of her eyes, she propped up her hand, the back of her hand pressed against her lips, the tip of her tooth was grinding on her finger, biting a bite, it hurt to the apex of her heart.
It’s not as painful as Su Yi’s.
From then to now, how did Su Yi come here?
Did she recognize herself early in the year? Why didn’t you come to her? So Su Yi always knew it was her? What are the two of them doing?
Xu Ruoxing closed her eyes, trying to suppress the sore and painful feeling, but the impact came too fast, she couldn’t stabilize her emotions, her breathing fluctuated too much, half leaned on the chair, Xu’s mother was very worried behind her, she couldn’t help but walk away Entering the room, it was in a mess, the books were dropped on the floor, the computer was turned on, and the host made a buzzing sound, it was very messy, Xu’s mother shouted: “Ruoxing.”
Seeing that Xu Ruoxing didn’t answer her, Xu’s mother was even more worried, and walked to her side: “Ruoxing, what’s wrong with you? Tell Mom?”
Xu Ruoxing looked at her sideways, her eye sockets were still hot, and the ends of her eyes were full of red. She held the mouse and scrolled up and down, her voice was choked and deep, Xu Ruoxing opened her lips: “Mom.”
Mother Xu looked at her worriedly.
Xu Ruoxing said: “I seem to have married a little fool.”
