The woman opposite the door

The money was quickly transferred as agreed before, and the next thing is to wait anxiously.

The man on the phone said that he was going to help his daughter ask for leave from school and arrange everything at home.They live in a very remote place in the mountainous area, and they need a horse-drawn carriage to turn a tricycle, a car to a train, and a train to an airplane. In short, the journey is long and it will take two or three days to get there. Su Meng is told not to rush, but to wait patiently.

Su Meng also came from a remote mountainous area, and he knew that although what he said sounded exaggerated, it was not impossible.The point is, right now I am at a disadvantage, even if I know that the other party intends to procrastinate or something else, I can only endure it and let it go.

Of course, she didn't affect her normal life because of this incident.

Going to work, leaving get off work, eating, sleeping, looks the same as usual, but always seems restless.

Yi Qingxuan hadn't seen Su Meng for nearly a week since the school sports meeting.

In fact, it’s not like they didn’t see each other at all. There were two times when they passed each other in the corridor, but Su Meng seemed to have something on his mind, and he didn’t take the initiative to say hello when he saw that he was called by his name. gone.

Yi Qingxuan didn't think it was enough, how could it be called a meeting when they met without saying a word?

Could it be that the fall at the sports meeting inadvertently revealed something, that Su Meng was avoiding her on purpose?

The more Yi Qingxuan thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. Otherwise, how could the two of them have no intersection since that day?

Even, she didn't come to eat the dinner that she carefully prepared that night, which is really abnormal.

Yi Qingxuan was a little disheartened. If the facts turned out to be as she guessed, then she and Su Meng...should be absolutely impossible, right?

Yes, she is young and beautiful, graduated from a famous university and has a good job with a high salary.

What about myself?In addition to a pair of skins that can barely be used, he is too old to have a formal job, and he also carries a half-sized oil bottle.

In this situation, it is difficult even for a second marriage and remarriage, let alone trying to climb up to a straight beauty?

Su Meng should... be straight, right?

Yi Qingxuan was a little uncertain, but she felt that left and right were eight/nine.

What he thought was clear, but he couldn't control his restless lovesickness.Yi Qingxuan worked hard for several days, but finally couldn't hold back, and knocked on the door of Su Meng's house.

This time she was even more nervous than when she invited Su Meng to eat at home last time. Yi Qingxuan stood outside the door and took several deep breaths.

"Knock knock..."

The voice was a little soft, and Yi Qingxuan didn't dare to use too much force, thinking that if Su Meng couldn't hear it, forget it, and turn around and go back as if he hadn't been there, so as to avoid embarrassment after being rejected again.

As she expected, there was no movement inside the door.

Yi Qingxuan was full of disappointment, and turned around lonely, but she couldn't take the steps to leave anyway.

How about... knock again?Didn't hear you, it doesn't mean you don't want to come to open the door.

right!Knock again, if you don't come to drive this time, forget it, go home directly.

Yi Qingxuan settled down, stroked her chest and let out a long breath, and put her slender white hands on the metal door in front of her.

"Knock knock knock..."

The sound was a little louder, and the echo could even be vaguely heard in the narrow corridor.

Yi Qingxuan was in a nervous mood. She put her hand on the door and hadn't taken it off, but subconsciously took a step back.

What should we say when we meet in a while?Invite her directly to have dinner at home, or greet her politely first, and ask her what she's been up to recently, and do you have time tonight?

My mind was in a mess and I didn't know what to think about. However, it was only after a minute that I realized that the door was still not opened.

What else can I say now?The voice is so loud, it must have been heard, if you don't come to open, the meaning of rejection is already obvious.

Yi Qingxuan sighed faintly, and turned back slowly, one step, two steps...the footsteps were so heavy that she couldn't move forward, and she didn't know whether it was because she was sad or unwilling.

Did he really guess that Su Meng was avoiding her on purpose?

no!Ask about everything!It's clear that death is death, isn't it?

With this excellent excuse, Yi Qingxuan finally mustered up the courage to return to Su Meng's door again.

"Boom, boom, boom!" No?

"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!" Still not on?

"Dong dong dong! dong dong dong! dong dong dong!"

Yi Qingxuan actually forgot to think about it at this time, maybe it's not that people don't want to open it, but that there is no one in it at all?

Anyway, it's just knocking with a dull head, as if swearing not to give up until no one is seen.

And then... the door really opened...

First there was a small crack in the door, and strangely, no light spilled out.Then, there was the strong smell of alcohol.

Yi Qingxuan never drank alcohol, so she was not directly drunk by the alcohol on the spot.

She frowned, covered her nose subconsciously, and then saw an extremely pale face protruding from the door.

It's Su Meng... Her hair was spread out like that, covering part of her cheeks, her face was as white as a piece of paper, but upon closer inspection, there was an abnormal blush.The long and narrow eyes were half-closed, only opening a small slit to try to identify the person in front of him.

"what's up?"

There was no greeting, no smile, and he asked blankly when he came up, which stunned Yi Qingxuan on the spot.

"I... what's wrong with you?"

Yi Qingxuan sensed something was wrong, and it was okay to be indifferent, but it was so late that the lights were not turned on, the room was full of alcohol, and her face was pale and sick... Yi Qingxuan even noticed that Su Meng's slender arms You have to hold on to the edge of the door tightly to ensure that you don't slip to the ground.

There must be something wrong!

Without saying a word, Yi Qingxuan stepped forward and grabbed Su Meng's waist, then slammed the door and entered.

When they got to the house, they found that the inside was reeking of alcohol, and Yi Qingxuan was almost stunned.

She fumbled to turn on the light first, and then carefully supported the man whose arms had turned into a puddle of mud to lie on the sofa.

"Why do you drink so much?"

Covering her mouth and nose with one hand, Yi Qingxuan quickly ran to the balcony and opened the window first.

On the floor, there were no less than twenty crooked wine bottles. Fortunately, most of them were beer. If it was white, Yi Qingxuan believed that Su Meng must have been poisoned by alcohol by now.

The person lying on the sofa is still conscious, although he is not very sober.

"Drinking?" Su Meng laughed "hehe": "What else can I do without drinking? What can I do... I have used all the methods that should be used and should not be used! But why, why did I Still can't find her?"

"I can't find her... I can't find her..."

As he spoke, his eyes became wet, and two lines of tears slid down.

Yi Qingxuan was stunned when she saw this, and then felt a slight pain in her heart.

Su Meng looked very calm, not hysterical, not emotional, not even speaking loudly, it sounded like raving in a dream, but for some reason, sadness wrapped her body like smoke, and then It was conveyed to Yi Qingxuan who was listening silently through whispered words.

"What did I do wrong? God... why are you taking revenge on me like this?"

"I... I just want to find her, I just want to keep her safe..."

"It's good if I can find her. Really, I don't need anything else... I can give up... You take it, take it all... Give her back to me... OK..."

For the first time, Yi Qingxuan knew that the deepest grief didn't need to be expressed by howling her head and crying loudly, shedding tears silently was enough to break one's heart.

Yi Qingxuan took out a tissue, leaned forward and gently wiped it for her, as carefully as caring for a baby.

"Su Meng..." She felt that the sad person in front of her needs to comfort herself, but Yi Qingxuan didn't know what to say.

"Don't cry, Su Meng. Is something wrong, can you tell me?"

Yi Qingxuan coaxed her softly, just like coaxing Yi Ran when she was a child.

Su Meng stopped babbling, half raised his body and suddenly held Yi Qingxuan's hand that was wiping her tears.

Yi Qingxuan was overjoyed, and when Su Meng finally regained consciousness, when she raised her eyes to look, she found that her eyes were still full of mist, so thick that it seemed impossible to melt away.

"Shen Tingwen doesn't help... I can find it myself... It doesn't matter if you spend money, I'm willing to spend whatever you want... But why did you lie to me?"

"Why...you lied to me..."

Looking for her...Shen Tingwen...to spend money, these bits and pieces of information rushed into Yi Qingxuan's mind one after another, she seemed to have guessed something, but she was not quite sure.

"Su Meng..." Yi Qingxuan straightened her body, turned around and went to the bathroom to wash a warm towel and wipe her pale face.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow, okay? Take a rest first."

Su Meng shook his head very slowly. Judging from his expression, his consciousness seemed to wake up again at this time.

She tried her best to open her eyelids to identify, her expression was bewildered, full of confusion, and she called out uncertainly: "Qing Xuan?"

An intimate whisper, this is the first time Yi Qingxuan heard Su Meng call her name like this, without the politeness of the past, there is more undefended trust, and she is holding her hand tightly...

Yi Qingxuan's face suddenly turned red even more than Su Meng's, and she kept aiming at her unusually delicate red lips intentionally or unintentionally, then she looked away in a panic, and snorted from her nose: "Well, yes I."

"How will you be here?"

Su Meng staggered and propped himself up, half leaning on the sofa.

Just as Yi Qingxuan was about to reply, she said to herself, "You're here, what about Little Routuan?"

"Little Routuan? Oh, she's watching cartoons at home, anyway, I'll be back soon..."

"What a nice little meatball..." She was interrupted before finishing her sentence, and Yi Qingxuan was a little dazed, unable to tell whether Su Meng was sober or drunk.

"She is beautiful, well-behaved, so lovable... But where is my daughter now..."

There was a "boom" in Yi Qingxuan's head, and she was stunned on the spot, as if she couldn't believe what she just heard.

daughter?Su Meng... is she already married, and even has a daughter?

Yi Qingxuan looked at Su Meng, then looked elsewhere, then turned back to look at Su Meng, and then asked softly with the last bit of hope: "Su Meng, you...do you have a daughter?"

Su Meng didn't speak, just stared at Yi Qingxuan with his head tilted and his eyes squinted.

The hope in Yi Qingxuan's heart increased a little bit: Are you talking nonsense after drinking too much?She just graduated from college, how could she be married and have a daughter at such a young age?Besides, she never saw her husband, only occasionally saw Mr. Shen going in and out...Mr. Shen?

Just as he was thinking, Su Meng's answer came to his ears: "Yes, I have a daughter. It's a pity that she...is gone..."

As if recalling the sad place, the tears that were finally wiped away just now overflowed again, and spilled all over the face in an instant.

Yi Qingxuan was shocked and disappointed at the same time, but she still couldn't control her heartache.

The action of wiping tears with a towel was lighter, as if he didn't know what to say and sighed first, and he didn't know whether he was mourning his secret love that died without a cause, or feeling Su Meng's tragic loss of his daughter.

After a while, he comforted me with a gentle tone: "Su Meng, you... don't be sad, let's talk about what's going on tomorrow, okay, it's too late now, you drank so much wine again, take a good rest first."

Su Meng shook his head: "Don't sleep... I can't sleep... As soon as I close my eyes, I will think of her little body wrapped in swaddling clothes... She is still so small, and her head is only the size of a palm... Qing Xuan, Qing Xuan..."

Su Meng's words suddenly became urgent, and he came up to grab Yi Qingxuan's arm: "Do you mean that she is no longer in this world, has... died? Otherwise, why haven't there been any news after so many years of searching..."

The sadness on her face hit the bottom of my heart, and the guesses she said were mixed with some worries and fears, her thin shoulders trembled slightly, combined with the tears that she couldn't wipe away, Yi Qingxuan's heart trembled when she saw it It's about to break.

"No, no. It's just gone. There are so many kind-hearted people in this world. Maybe someone will pick them up and take care of them. They will be healthy and happy..."

Su Meng stopped crying, and looked up at her with some pitiful expectation in her water eyes: "Really?"

"Well, really, so don't be sad, and don't give up, you will find it one day."

Yi Qingxuan could only comfort with vague words, after all, she didn't know the whole truth of the matter.

After Su Meng heard this, he was really calm. This is like a person who fell into the water and drifted hopelessly in the vast sea. When he tried his best but couldn't see the shore, he would inevitably feel disheartened or hopeless. He thought, maybe The coast is still far away, and I can't row until I die, or there is no coast at all.

Despair is a terrible force that will devour people's hearts and wear down their will, but if there is a piece of driftwood in front of them at this moment, or if you can vaguely see a green plant in the sky, you will have new hope There will be a lot of motivation again.

Wandering alone is too hard, and someone always needs someone to support and help, just like Su Meng at this moment.

The tears finally shed a little less, and the light of hope appeared in her eyes again. Yi Qingxuan was relieved a little, and got up to help her: "Take a bath first, okay, and then sleep well..."

She stopped before she finished speaking, and the scorching heat between her palms made Yi Qingxuan feel that something was wrong.

She held Su Meng's slender waist with one hand, and put her hand on Su Meng's smooth forehead without thinking about it.

It was hot, Yi Qingxuan immediately frowned.

"Su Meng, you have a fever."

Su Meng didn't speak, and wrapped his hands around Yi Qingxuan's neck, and his body needed her support to prevent him from slipping.Eyes that had been watered by tears all night were gently closed, and she tilted her head on Yi Qingxuan's shoulder and hummed softly.

After confiding, and listening to Yi Qingxuan's heart-warming comfort, it took a moment for my heart to calm down before I realized my physical fatigue.

The high fever made Su Meng lose a little strength, and the alcohol caused his whole head to feel dizzy as if it was filled with paste. Although he heard someone talking in his ears, he couldn't open his eyes to see anyway. In the end, he sank into the Boundless darkness...
