my naughty female president

Chapter 268: Return of the Old Man

Jasmine stood up slowly, the astonishment on her face remained undiminished, I knew it was my aggressive behavior that made her feel incredible.

She walked slowly to my side, as if she was about to reach out and pull me, but I subconsciously shrank back in fear.

Jasmine's hand froze suddenly, and the astonishment on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a trace of sadness.

She lowered her hand slowly, lowered her eyes slightly, and stood in front of me and said quietly: "Brother Asheng, do you hate me so much? Do you know that the moment I first saw you on the pier, I I've already fallen in love with you? Don't think that I'm a frivolous woman when I act like this to you. I know that we foreign women are always promiscuous in the eyes of you Chinese, but I can tell you responsibly. You, I have never been so obsessed with a man, I know I am in love with you, don't you have a little feeling for me? Why are you so afraid of me? "

Tears welled up in Jasmine's eyes, but there was still a trace of her free and easy look in the past!
Jasmine's words brought me back to my senses a little bit. I know that my evasive actions hurt her heart, but what I have to say is that those actions were all subconscious actions of mine, not my original intention. It is also impossible to accept Jasmine's enthusiasm.

The experience of these years made me faintly feel in my heart that there seemed to be an invisible curse on me, which has been cursing me. Once I get emotional, I will end up in a tragic end.

Not long after I had a relationship with Mu Xichun, when I thought I could withstand all the pressure and walk into the future with her, I immediately encountered a catastrophe that changed my life!

It was the same after I met Annie. I thought I would have another chance to be happy, but the truth quickly gave me the answer. This time it was even more tragic, so much so that it cost Annie's life...

I'm really scared, I'm afraid that if I get emotional, this curse that has been cast on my life will come again!I'm afraid I'll hurt the people around me again...

So I have been telling myself in my heart that I can't live too well, and I can't make myself too comfortable. Only by sticking to this red line that cannot be crossed, living the most simple life like an ascetic monk, and forgetting all emotions Not to trigger this curse.

In fact, I did it too. I lived alone in an old house away from the crowd, and I lived a simple life of simple food and drink on my own, in order not to let myself cross this red line!

However, Jasmine's behavior tonight seems to be beyond the red line, so how can it not make me feel terrified or even frightened?

These have already become inherent cognitions in my heart, so when I realized Jasmine's behavior, I was not controlled by my mind and showed great resistance and fear towards Jasmine!

But how could these Jasmines know...

I slowly sat up, got out of bed and walked to Jasmine's side.

"Jasmine, I'm sorry!" I said in a deep voice.

"It's not your fault! I don't hate you, nor am I afraid of you..."

"Then why?"

Jasmine suddenly said loudly.The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and the tears could no longer be contained in her eyes, streaming down silently.

……

"It's my problem, not yours!"

I was silent for a while and finally said.

"I've already told you my story. I'm an ominous person. I don't want to have any emotional ties. Anyone who gets close to me will end well. I don't want to hurt you!"

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid!" Jasmine rushed over and hugged me from behind with tears in her eyes and a stubborn expression on her face!
I slowly closed my eyes, and my heart, which had been calm for a long time, started to throb again.

I felt Jasmine's slightly trembling body, and said silently in my heart: Jasmine, I'm sorry, I have already lost the ability to love, I can't give you what you want!Although I don't know if the curse on me really exists, I can't give it the slightest chance to manifest.Jasmine, I'm sorry!
After a long time, I finally slowly broke away from Jasmine's hand, and walked out step by step without looking back.

I heard Jasmine crying silently behind me until I walked out of her house completely.Although I didn't look back, I could imagine how sad her expression was at the moment.But Jasmine, I have no other choice, the only way to minimize the damage...

I walked back with a heavy heart. The moon had risen from the sea to mid-air. The sea breeze in early autumn was already a bit chilly.

After what happened that night, I thought that the way Jasmine and I got along would be different, at least her attitude towards me would change.

But I didn't expect that Jasmine would still go to my place for a meal whenever she was free, as if nothing had happened, and even the way she looked at me remained unchanged, and even the emotion in her eyes became even more unequivocal. Unobstructed.

Although I always deliberately avoided her gaze, she didn't feel depressed at all, at least on the surface.

I know she doesn't give up so easily, which makes me extremely distressed, but I can't avoid her, she can always find work and run to my yard.

Just when I was worried about how to deal with the relationship with Jasmine, a person came to help me solve this worry just right.

I was at the pier that day retying my raft with twine.The poet Tang Wenxuan appeared in front of me at this moment.

He was carrying the same canvas bag as I did back then, and his short hair indicated that he had just come out of that compound not long ago.

I haven't seen him for several years, and he looks even thinner. His high cheekbones, deep-set eye sockets, and thick stubble around his lips give him the charm of a mature man.

He was wearing a light-colored blazer and faded blue jeans, which were unzipped.He had one hand in his pocket and the other a canvas bag.

When I found him, he was already standing a few meters away from me, we looked at each other for a second, and then both laughed!
It is no coincidence that Xiao Tang was able to find me. I thought of Xiao Tang after the company gradually stabilized a few months ago. I thought of what Xiao Tang said to me when I was released from prison. He said let me start a career first. , After he came out, he came to me. I joked that even if I was begging, I would leave him the best food I begged.

I didn't expect that I really have some small achievements now, and Xiao Tang's time is almost up, so I wrote a letter to the prison, telling him my situation here, if he has nowhere to go come to me.Now he really came.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered that classic American movie. When the old Morgan found Andy, it was also at noon on a sunny day. Andy was repairing his boat, and the old Morgan appeared in front of him. The lens of the movie On the golden beach, the world gradually becomes wider, and the movie ends here.

I think the director is probably using this artistic method to express the freedom that people want. No matter where we go, no matter how many lives we have left at that time, as long as we are free, we are happy.

The encounter between me and Xiao Tang is almost a real version of old Morgan and Andy, the difference is that Xiao Tang is not as old as Morgan, and I am luckier than Andy, because I don’t need to hide my identity.

Xiao Tang and I looked at each other and smiled. Xiao Tang still called me Sheng Ge, familiar and natural, like family members who had been separated for many years and met again after each experienced reincarnation. No change either!

Xiao Tang and I sat on the pier facing the endless sea and chatted for an afternoon, telling each other about our experiences after parting.

Xiao Tang told me that in the second year after I left, the prison was closed, and they were sent to the mountains in the southwest of the motherland, where they tended dozens of acres of ecological forest gardens.

This is a project of the national forestry. They need to plant unnamed saplings in the ground in the spring, and dig out the saplings in the next spring.As for the meaning of this task, no one knows, and no one will explain this to them.

The reason why this seemingly easy job falls on them is because there are few people there and the conditions are extremely harsh, and no normal person would go there.

Xiao Tang told me that two months after I went there, someone tried to escape. The man was found just after he escaped. He ignored the warning and was shot dead on the spot during the chase.No one has thought about it since.Xiao Tang stayed there until he was released from prison, and he just came back from there not long ago.

Xiao Tang didn't mention how hard the life there was, but I could imagine from his emaciated figure and increasingly silent state what kind of life he lived in these years.

I also told Xiao Tang about my experiences over the years.

I told him about Wei Lai and Annie, I told him about Da Bin and General Wei, I told him about the silversmith shop and the bar, and I also told him about Cang Yong Cuo and the old monk!
I kept talking about when I came here from Tibet, when the villagers raised money to buy a truck for me, when the village director led people to block the door and got me a business license...

Xiao Tang listened quietly all the time, and when I talked about Annie and Wei Lai, he slowly turned his head away, and it took me a long time to see him turn his head slowly with red eye circles.

"Have you ever gone to see her?" I asked Xiao Tang.I didn't say who she was, but Xiao Tang could naturally understand who I was talking about. "Have you figured out why?"

Xiao Tang sighed, and said after a few seconds: "I've looked for it, she's doing well, and she also told me what happened back then. It's just a simple trick!"

"From the moment we met it was a hoax, a hoax designed just for me, for my father. It was just to make a scandal out of me and make my father lose the election, that's all! She didn't even truly loved me!"

"She said that she had struggled the day she called the police, and she didn't want to do it, but she didn't hesitate to call the police when she learned that her real boyfriend was being controlled by others!"

"The most ridiculous thing is that my father actually thought that I was a drag on his official career, that I was really an ignorant dude, and that I was a stain on his life! During the years when I was imprisoned, he He never visited me once, and even after I got out of prison, he didn't want to see me, how ridiculous!"

Xiao Tang said in a low voice, his tone was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, but I clearly heard the desperate cry in his heart!
