chronic silence

After venting, Wei Nuo felt a little better.A week passed in a blink of an eye, and there was no news from the family.Wei Nuo decided to let nature take its course and deal with the matter in front of him first.So he took the stone to visit Ma Yueer's house.

"Shitou, you are my guide today, don't lead me astray."

"No, no, the pet store will be here soon."

"Let me tell you first, we are here to apologize to your sister Yueer, not to invite you to the pet shop."

"Yes, yes." Shitou said so, how could he not know that Wei Nuo was joking with him.

"By the way, Dad asked you, what should we bring with us? What do grandparents like to eat? You stayed at Sister Yue'er's house for two days, do you know?"

Shi Shi tried hard to recall, "I don't know."

"Then what did they eat for you, do you have any impression?"

He shook his head, "No."

Forget it, look at it and buy it.When Wei Nuo came to Ma Yueer's house, he was carrying a large bag of fruit and a carton of milk.

Pressing the doorbell, Wei Nuo responded with the sound of putting on shoes in a hurry and a series of hurried footsteps, "Yue'er, did you leave something at home?"

The old lady opened the door and saw a very energetic young man standing outside the door. She straightened her neckline and said, "Are you looking for someone?"

"Hi, I'm here to find Ma Yueer, Shitou, hello grandma."

Shi Shi slowly walked out from behind We Nuo, revealing half of his face, perhaps the remaining fear had not dissipated, his voice was very soft, and he called out very softly.

The old lady immediately realized, "You are that Wei Nuo, you still have the face to look for Yue'er, she cried so badly when she came back that night, you go, you go!" The old lady gestured to close the door.

"Wait." Wei Nuo shouted, "Things are not what you think, I'm here today to apologize to Yue'er."

"No need." The old lady glanced at the things in We Nuo's hand, "No need, take it away." Her tone was firm and firm, and there was no room for negotiation.

Shi Shi hides behind We Nuo in fright.

"Listen to what I have to say, Yue'er and I..." Wei Nuo wanted to try to explain, but soon he gave up, because there was the sound of Peking opera coming from inside the door, the volume was turned up deliberately, obviously disgusted with him extreme.

He lowered his head, as if he had returned to the time when he first started selling, and suffered countless rejections.He tried to call Ma Yue'er.

"So, how did your husband Chen Yaoyu treat you later?" Ma Yueer was sitting opposite Liu Junyuan at the moment.She came to the appointment only after receiving a call from Liu Junyuan today.On the phone, Liu Junyuan said that she would like to thank her very much, because Chen Yaoyu has become very considerate recently, almost back to the time when they were in love, although it only lasted for two months, because they got married two months later.

"It's very good, asking for warmth." Liu Junyuan said lightly, she is not a stupid woman, of course she knows what it means, "I think he is overwhelmed, and I asked you out today, just to let him out."

"You obviously don't believe him, but... I understand, you are waiting for him to show his feet."

"You're not bad either. I heard that you haven't contacted We Nuo for a week. It's a psychological offensive."

"I hope you take good care of Chen Yaoyu."

"Of course, I wish you get Wei Nuo as soon as possible."

It seems that there are some allies, Ma Yueer thought to herself.Are they exchanging information with each other like this?In this way, both Wei Nuo and Chen Yaoyu have enough time to meet each other.It was a test, for all four of them.

"Maybe I've said it harshly. If Chen Yaoyu and Wei Nuo are ambiguous again, what will you do?"

"Again?" Liu Junyuan's hands dropped naturally, leaning on the back of the chair, "Then what about you. Weinuo is having fun with him, what will you do?"

"At that time, I will probably give up." Ma Yue'er pursed her lips, unexpectedly feeling dry.

"I will hold onto Chen Yaoyu firmly. As long as I hold onto it firmly, there should be no way for Wei Nuo."

"Hello, coffee you want."

"I hope so." Ma Yueer was about to toast, when the familiar bell rang, she hesitated for a while, and said, "It's just pity Shitou."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing." Ma Yueer said perfunctorily.Not long after, she received a text message, "Yue'er, I'm at your house now."

With a quick glance, she said, "I'm leaving."

"No." Liu Junyuan looked at Ma Yue'er's back with a smile on her face, and she had an excellent way to catch Chen Yaoyu in her heart.

Wei Nuo waited at the door for a while, but Ma Yueer didn't reply.He himself didn't care, but Shito couldn't be left standing there, so Wei Nuo suggested, "Let's go to the pet store first."

Stone stood with his feet sore, his eyes glowed after listening, "Okay, okay", but then he thought, "What about that thing?"

"Let's put it here." Wei Nuo put down the things and walked away with the stone.

"Dad, didn't you just leave without telling grandma?"

"Don't worry about it, let's go."

The stone is like the pioneer army who opened the way, walking bravely at the forefront.As soon as he entered the pet store, Shishi sprinted to the dog area with ease, and then pointed to the cage, "Daddy, I want to play with him."

"Can you still play?" Wei Nuo has never been to this kind of real-time interactive pet store, seeing the style of this store, it's no wonder Shitou refuses to go to the nearby small store again.

"Of course, Sister Yue'er let me play here for an hour last time!"

We Nuo smiled, this was the first time Stone saw We Nuo smile in a few days.He went to the service area to go through the formalities, and suddenly heard someone calling him from behind, "Wei, Wei Nuo?"

The voice was a bit familiar, Wei Nuo turned around - remember, Qi Li!

"Zi Li!"

"It's really you, we haven't seen each other for many years, have you come to buy a pet?"

"No, no, the child likes it, take him here to play."

"Which one?" Qi Li looked in the direction We Nuo pointed, and the staff was taking two little guys to the play area with a rock in his left hand and a husky in his right.She understood, and said with a smile, "You said you and Yue'er are really strange. A few days ago, it was her, and today it's you. You made an appointment to patronize my business?"

"Guarding?" Wei Nuo let out an "oh" and suddenly realized, "This store is yours? It's amazing."

"It's just out of interest - look at you, you haven't changed much after all these years, otherwise I wouldn't dare to recognize you."

"By the way, last time Yue'er brought a stone over, did he choose this one too?"

"Probably, it's been a while, I forgot. You might as well ask the child directly, seeing how precious he is, his memory should be much better than mine."

"That's right." Wei Nuo replied, and looked around again, "That's great."

Qi Li glanced at him, "What's the matter? How can I manage such a big store by myself? People in their 30s look like they are in their 40s."

"No one wants to be the boss?" Wei Nuo teased.

"Boss? Is it right for you to be treated as you?" Qi Li seemed really angry, with one hand half slung around her waist, and the other pointing at the pet's shape inside and out, "Even if I don't get scared away by my face , I was also scared by these gadgets, otherwise, people who come here are all for cats and dogs, who would look at me more."

It seems to be the case.Wei Nuo looked at Qi Li and was still in the mood to tease himself, and suddenly felt that the unsatisfactory life will always pass, what the visitor saw was this bustling pet shop, but what about Qi Li's efforts behind it?It will not come to this day for no reason.

"I remember you were very popular in school, why didn't you contact your old acquaintances?"

"Don't talk about me, how closely Yueer stared at you when she was in school."

Ah owe.Ma Yue'er sneezed, just walked upstairs, and found some fruit in a red plastic bag at the door, and a carton of milk beside it.She didn't even bother to take out the key, and shouted, "Mom and Dad, has Wei Nuo been here before? Mom, open the door!"

"Your father is not here!" The old lady's voice came from the room, and after a few metal frictions, the door opened.

"Mom, are these things brought by Wei Nuo?"

The old lady glanced at her, "Why, he filed a complaint?"

"Mom, where are the others?"

The old lady threw the slippers on the ground, "I can't care about him if he has hands and feet." I don't know who she was talking about.

Ma Yue'er stuffed the things on the ground into the door, and said a few words, "Don't throw it away, I will eat when I get back." After speaking, she took out her phone and dialed Wei Nuo's number.

"Silly girl, if he has you in his heart, he shouldn't have been waiting at the door of the house!"

A few seconds before the call was connected, Ma Yueer hesitated for a moment, but she still did not change her mind.Yes, wait, it's the last option.No need to do anything, just wait.But it was my parents who guarded the door, "Hello, Wei Nuo."

Wei Nuo's voice came from the phone, and it was processed a little unrealistically.A week passed, and this was the first time Ma Yueer heard his voice recently, and even she herself was a little dazed, of course, the processed human voice on the phone could not be blamed.

"Sorry, there have been harassing calls just now."

"Have you been to my house?" Ma Yueer asked knowingly.

"Unfortunately, the door was closed."

"If you have a conscience, I'll come here now." Ma Yue'er heard Qi Li's voice, and also heard the commotion in the pet shop.She pretended to blame, but actually harbored a secret expectation in her heart.

"Do you know where I am?" Wei Nuo didn't expect this, and asked straightforwardly.

"Qi Lidu's laughter has reached my left ear!" Ma Yueer raised the decibel, but in her heart she scolded Wei Nuo for being a fool.In fact, who is the real fool, and who can explain clearly?

"Hello, the number you have dialed is currently in use."

If Chen Yaoyu had the most annoying voice in the world, it must be the cold female voice on the phone right now.After returning to Z City from H City, it was obvious that Jun Yuan was still not at ease with him, and tried to test him many times intentionally or unintentionally, which made Chen Yaoyu very nervous and had no time to care about other things.Besides, Chen Yaoyu hasn't figured out how to appease Wei Nuo's easily hurt heart.

"You won't answer my calls again?" Chen Yaoyu said to himself, next time we meet, fuck you.The corners of his mouth turned up, as if he had enjoyed that moment in advance, with a satisfied expression on his face.

After chatting with Qi Li for a while, Shi Shi was brought to We Nuo by the staff, "Dad, it's time."

Wei Nuo glanced at his phone, it was almost six o'clock, and he planned to have dinner with Ma Yue'er, as a thank you and an apology. "Just play for a while longer." Weinuo nodded to the staff and added an hour, this time is neither too early nor too late, Ma Yueer should be here later, so just treat it as waiting for her.

"Yue'er is coming?" Qi Li asked after seeing him finish the phone call.

"Well, we plan to have dinner together."

"Eat?" Qi Li pondered for a while, "What's the matter with you two?"

"Don't talk nonsense," Wei Nuo subconsciously blocked Qi Li's question, "Yue'er is a good girl."

Qi Li had a clear look on her face, "Wei Nuo, how old are you, and you still play tricks like this?"

"Qi Li, I don't know how to make it clear. It's not as simple as you think."

"Simple?"

"It's not as complicated as you think." Wei Nuo didn't know what to do, he couldn't even face Ma Yueer, let alone explain the whole story to Qi Li.

His eyes flickered, looking bewildered.When Qi Li saw Ma Yue'er who had just entered from the door, she suddenly felt that she was meddling in her own business.What can she say as an outsider about the affairs of the authorities.

"Yue'er." Qi Li called out, and then went to greet other guests.

We Nuo turned his head almost immediately, and Ma Yueer was standing at the door, no different from a few weeks ago.He stood up and walked towards Ma Yueer. "You came."

"Where's the stone? Are you still playing with the husky?"

"It's not because you took it, I'm addicted." Wei Nuo originally wanted to make a joke, but when he said it, he realized the meaning behind the sentence.

Of course Ma Yue'er also noticed it, she changed the subject, "I took the things you left at the door, milk and fruit, it doesn't look like an apology to me, but it looks like you came to condolences to my parents."

Ma Yue'er was taken aback after she finished speaking, and immediately felt awkward.The two of them became uncomfortable with hiding like this.

She patted Wei Nuo on the shoulder suddenly, "Okay, you said you want to invite me to dinner, how do you plan to make amends?" Ma Yueer made up her mind that there would never be a next time such a cold war method.The time interval was long, and both of them were embarrassed.

"I'll send the stone over."

"No need, I'll tell Qi Li to send Shishi over later, order the food first, then let Shishi come over."

Wei Nuo thought for a while, and it was really inconvenient to say some things in front of Shishi, "Well, I'll say hello to Shishi."

Ma Yueer nodded.

Shi Shi hesitated for a while between the delicious food and the husky, then stared at Qi Li for a while, and finally he was still reluctant to part with the husky.

Wei Nuo shrugged and pretended to say helplessly, "Food is not as good as a dog."

"Children."

The two went to a nearby restaurant to order some dishes. For Ma Yueer, these were just formalities.What matters is what Wei Nuo will say to her this time.To be honest, she wasn't sure either.How much guilt does Wei Nuo feel in his heart, how heavy is the weight of the stone in his heart, what position does Chen Yaoyu occupy in his heart... These questions will all have answers today.

Wei Nuo took a deep breath, "Yue'er, during the few days I went to City H, I was indeed on a business trip to make up for my negligence at work."

It's not that Ma Yue'er doesn't believe Wei Nuo's statement, after all, it's impossible for him to throw stones just to hang out with Chen Yaoyu.

Ma Yue'er responded lightly so that Wei Nuo could continue talking.

"Chen Yaoyu and I, we are fine, you know, he is married." There was a long silence before Wei Nuo stammered out a few words.

"En." Ma Yueer suppressed the disappointment in her heart, not because of the helpless "he's married", but because of Wei Nuo's hesitant tone.So she didn't comment.

"We, we did go...for one night." Wei Nuo continued, "I didn't know why, I..." Wei Nuo frowned and sighed for a while, struggling with complicated inner feelings, Ma Yueer could see In his eyes, he chose to remain silent.

In the end, she watched We Nuo lower her head, and heard him say, "Yue'er, I really like him."

Ma Yue'er picked up the cup and took a sip, her smooth throat swallowed with a hideous look, but soon recovered.Just now I said it was nothing, that’s right, Wei Nuo is Wei Nuo after all, the We Nuo who is weak on the surface but stubborn about love.With the cold air swirling in her nose, Ma Yueer took a deep breath to keep her mind clear, "After so many years, do you still like him that much?"

Ma Yue'er also said this to herself, she was no longer at the age where she could be desperate for her first love, she could have found a makeshift life for the rest of her life.The appearance of Wei Nuo made Ma Yueer see the last hope of fighting against life. In the final analysis, she was also struggling with herself.

Now, is that hope also dashed?

"Yue'er, I don't know what's wrong, I can't refuse, I really can't refuse. I haven't contacted Chen Yaoyu for ten years, and he even invited me to his wedding, and we meet again, I can't resist It's true. Those reluctances at the beginning turned out to be reconciliation. I just wanted to give myself an explanation. But in the past few months, whether it was intentional or unintentional, getting along with Chen Yaoyu... actually made me feel uncomfortable. I feel very, very happy——Yueer, I am very grateful to you, really, it is true, I know you have paid a lot for the stone, I..."

"do not talk."

"Yue'er, I'm sorry." Wei Nuo couldn't respond to her feelings. Although he felt indebted, if he didn't take advantage of today to speak clearly, this guilt would slowly ferment in his heart, and finally he would be burdened with an inescapable guilt. mood.

"Stop talking," Ma Yueer interrupted again, "It seems that you are not ready yet, let's talk about it another day." She couldn't believe that this was Wei Nuo's final answer.From his illogical words, Ma Yueer's last hope was wiped out by life.She felt very unwilling, she lost the bet.We Nuo didn't have her in his heart, and the guilt that entangled We Nuo was just brought by the stone. It was wishful thinking for him to use this kind of self-condemnation to pull Wei Nuo back to a normal life.So in Wei Nuo's heart, Chen Yaoyu is more important than the stone, and the stone is more important than her.

It's just a fact, it's just a fact.

"Yue'er, I'm sorry for you." At this moment, he felt much more relaxed, "I shouldn't have bothered you in the first place." It would be a lie to say that Wei Nuo didn't know the consequences of handing the stone to Ma Yueer my own.It's just that Wei Nuo was lucky, every time he thought that this was the last time, every time he thought about it, Ma Yueer didn't care.So thousands of times, there was a voice in Wei Nuo's heart saying: Push it to her, she likes you.

This love is now exhausted.

"Don't bother at first, at first, did you really not think of this level at first?" Ma Yue'er said with a dark face, "Wei Nuo, I originally thought that even if you couldn't let Chen Yaoyu go Saying it to my face, it’s still in this situation.” Ma Yueer became more and more excited as she spoke, and drank another cup, “You don’t feel sorry for me at all, and I kept posting it. It’s me who is too Stupid. Shitou is so cute, I am willing to take care of him, but I think in the future, I will not let myself make excuses to take care of you, Wei Nuo."

"Yue'er." Wei Nuo always felt that something was wrong there, but he couldn't tell for a moment.He couldn't fall in love with a woman, he couldn't tell Ma Yueer the impossibility of the two of them, he couldn't open such a mouth.

"Don't be like this, Wei Nuo, for me, you have already made your choice." Ma Yueer suddenly thought of Liu Junyuan, that woman who was just like her, sticking to Chen Yaoyu, I don't know how long she can persist when?

Ma Yue'er was about to get up, Wei Nuo held on to his last hope, "Yue'er, are we still friends?"

Ma Yueer smiled back, "Of course, old classmate."

Let's come to an end, if you still refuse to let go, it will seem a bit despicable.

Wei Nuo seemed to have lost all his strength, his hands could no longer grasp the edge of the cliff, and he fell infinitely.On the one hand, he couldn't bear Ma Yueer's resoluteness, but on the other hand, he was thankful that he had finally solved this mess with a showdown.The inappropriate combination of these two emotions in his body made him feel like an asshole.Until now, Wei Nuo didn't understand what Chen Yaoyu said, he was really too weak.

The dishes were served one after another, all Shitou liked.Qi Li had someone send a stone over, obviously he was still immersed in the fun brought by pets.
