One-way Passage - Chapter 54
Xia Wennan became restless in an instant. He didn’t listen to what Li Xin, who was sitting across from him, was still talking. The only thought in his head was Lu Wenxing, why did he come to this place?
Did you come to see Mingluchuan?
Xia Wennan couldn’t help but looked at Ming Luchuan repeatedly, but there was nothing unusual in Ming Luchuan’s expression. However, Ming Luchuan noticed his gaze, took his hand from under the table, and squeezed it a little harder.
Ming Luchuan did not admit that Lu Wenxing was his father at all. Even if Lu Wenxing found out that they were eating here tonight, there was no reason to come here and wait for Ming Luchuan.
Xia Wennan can’t figure it out. He hesitated in his heart, and didn’t tell Ming Luchuan about this by the end of the meal.
After eating, when Ming Luchuan stood up, he stretched out his hand in front of Xia Wennan.
Slow down to the first floor.
Duan Ning walked behind them.
Xia Wennan was certain that Mingluchuan and Duan Ning were nothing right now, but he couldn’t help but secretly poked closer to Mingluchuan.
In the end, Ming Luchuan gave Xia Wennan’s hand that he held in his right hand to his left, and then raised his right arm to wrap his arms around Xia Wennan’s waist.
This posture is too intimate, Xia Wennan had to lean on Ming Luchuan, he was a little uncomfortable, but it was not easy to push Ming Luchuan away.
Walking to the door of the private restaurant, Xia Wennan saw that Lu Wenxing’s car was still parked there, but he couldn’t see the people in the car through the side window.
At this moment, Li Xin suddenly said: “Someone has come to pick me up.” His tone was a little excited, as if someone came to pick him up is something to be happy about.
Ming Luchuan smiled slightly: “Then you go back to rest early and be careful on the road.”
Li Xin nodded: “Let’s meet again when you have time, Mr. Ming.” After speaking, he said goodbye to Duan Ning, and then walked briskly towards the car that asked for directions.
Xia Wennan stood there in a daze, watching Li Xin open the car door to get in the car, and soon the roar of the engine of the royal blue sports car came and drove away from the restaurant door.
During the whole process, Lu Wenxing did not get off the car or show his face. Xia Wennan was very sure that Ming Luchuan did not see him, so did he know that the person who was eating with Li Xin tonight was his son? What is his relationship with Li Xin? But don’t say Li Xin is his other illegitimate child?
Xia Wennan frowned unconsciously.
Ming Luchuan looked down at him: “What are you looking at?”
“What?”
Ming Luchuan said: “Li Xin has left.”
“That’s right,” Xia Wennan tried to regain his attention, and he finally couldn’t help shaking Ming Luchuan’s hand, pretending to raise his hand to stretch.
Duan Ning stood in front of them and smiled: “Then I’ll go back too.”
Ming Luchuan nodded: “Be careful on the road.”
Duan Ning waved his hand and walked towards the place where he parked.
Xia Wennan said: “Don’t look, everyone is gone.”
“I saw it?” Ming Luchuan asked rhetorically.
Xia Wennan knew that his attention was not on Duan Ning for a long time, so he deliberately looked up at the sky, and then suddenly pointed to the moon: “Ah, Bai Yueguang!”
After saying these three words, Xia Wennan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Obviously, this is not the first time that Ming Luchuan has been teased like this, but this time, these three words seem to be stuck in Xia Wennan’s heart, calling him Inexplicably unhappy, so he snorted coldly: “It’s so bright.”
“Bright what?” Ming Luchuan looked at him with his arms folded over his chest.
Xia Wennan said, “Don’t you know in your heart?”
“I don’t know, I said he is not me Bai Yueguang.” Ming Luchuan’s tone was serious.
“Didn’t you like him before?”
“Like Bai Yueguang? Shouldn’t Bai Yueguang be the one who hangs up high?”
Xia Wennan raised his head: “So you liked it before, but now you don’t care about it at all?”
“I don’t care about it for a long time,” Ming Luchuan’s voice was a little cold, “I never care about one-sided feelings.”
“So you don’t care about him anymore because he doesn’t like you?”
“Love is not worth the effort.”
Xia Wennan said: “I thought you fell in love with me and didn’t like him anymore.”
Ming Luchuan did not speak.
Xia Wennan suddenly couldn’t help but ask: “If I can’t remember it all the time, do you think you have unrequited feelings for me?”
Ming Luchuan stretched out his arms and hugged Xia Wennan without warning. He put Xia Wennan in his arms, hugged him very hard, and said, “You will remember.”
They got into the car, Ming Luchuan did not ask the driver to drive, but said another address.
Xia Wennan said in surprise: “Where are you going so late?”
Ming Luchuan replied, “Take you to the old laboratory building.”
“Now?”
Ming Luchuan was silent.
Xia Wennan felt that his emotions were a little intense at this time. He resisted and did not object. He just yawned and said, “I’m a little sleepy, how about the weekend?”
Ming Luchuan remained indifferent.
Xia Wennan had to say, “Well, let’s go and see.”
Mingyan’s old laboratory was rented. It was in a research institute. At that time, Mingyan hadn’t taken off in the industry with pheromone perfume, and it still didn’t have this building.
It was past nine o’clock in the evening when I arrived at the institute, and it was less than half an hour before the closing time. The driver drove in the car and drove all the way down to the downstairs of an old three-story red brick building, and stopped by the roadside to open the door for them.
There are no lights in the building, the windows illuminated by the street lamps are all black and open at night, and there are creeping tigers on the wall climbing all the way up from the foot of the building, and the wind blows and staggers. rustling sound.
There are also sweet-scented osmanthus flowers here, accompanied by the rustling sound of the wind.
Xia Wennan stood under the tree, raised his head and looked at the small brick building on the third floor.
This kind of memory is very vague, not what happened here one day, but inexplicably familiar, as if I had dreamed here. Red wall tiles, green creepers, golden osmanthus flowers, old brick roofs covered with gray tiles, ridges and bucket arches, half hidden behind the dense bushes.
The night wind blew gently on his cheeks, and he smelled a light fragrance, completely different from the sweet fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, it was the pheromone of Minglu River, a cold woody fragrance. When Xia Wennan smelled it for the first time, he thought of the woods in the deep mountains, the ancient temple with blue tiles and white walls hidden in the depths of the woods. It is obviously a different environment from the current one, but it is also subtly similar.
Xishui Temple, yes, he already knew that it was the pheromone of Minglu River, but it was not until this moment that he suddenly realized what kind of Xishui Temple he wanted.
In the silent night, the wooden door of the quaint and majestic tall Zen courtyard was closed, surrounded by ancient trees, the air was cold, someone was chanting scriptures, and calm voices were looming in the mountains and forests. At this time, there was a stream flowing out from the corner of the wall of the Chanyuan. The stream was clear and translucent, with the scent of incense candles. It should not eat the fireworks of the world. So the sound of chanting became chaotic, and it was no longer Gujing Wubo…
Why familiar? Because Xia Wennan had smelled the pheromone of Mingluchuan mixed with the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus, which was the Xishui Temple he wanted, Xia Wennan’s heart was beating fiercely.
