lure wolf into heart

"I don't even remember us being together."

It was a sentence that summed up his self-loved words just right.

Xu Ning, who was still planted on the sofa, raised his gun with tears in his eyes.

If he is no longer in this world, will he get a little nostalgia from Lin Pengfei, and will he stay in Lin Pengfei's heart for a long time?At that moment, he was possessed by a demon, felt the cold touch on his temples, and closed his eyes.

Pull the trigger, and the gunfire rang out.

But he missed his aim.

The bullet grazed through the hair and embedded itself in the pearlescent sofa.

Xu Ning's arm deflection was not entirely caused by the wine bottle that exploded at his elbow, but by the recoil of the gun, and his entire arm was numb.

The piece of glass scratched the skin, and there was a column of blood on the forearm.

"Brother Ning," Xin Han, who had already arrived, looked terrified. He was still holding another wine bottle that hadn't been thrown out, and half-kneeling and half-squatting down the gun that Xu Ning was still holding, "What are you doing?" What are you doing!"

Xu Ning, who was in a state of tinnitus, was pulled to sit up by two people, staring blankly at the blood dripping on the porcelain white floor, and when he raised his head, he collided with the figure who had returned from the original road.

Lin Pengfei stopped a few meters away and said indifferently: "If you want to die, go outside and die, don't embarrass my place."

When he had the courage to face the cruelty, Xu Ning realized that he had overestimated his position with Lin Pengfei.He pushed away the person who was going to bandage him, and walked straight towards the door, clutching his arms.

After Lin Pengfei made a gesture with his eyes, Xin Han followed him: "Brother Ning, you can leave after bandaging."

Xin Han's voice echoed in the empty corridor.Xu Ning walked in a hurry, completely irrational.

Xin Han followed all the way to the underground garage. Seeing that Xu Ning was about to get into the car, he hurriedly said, "Why are you driving with this arm? It's still bleeding."

Xu Ning pulled Xin Han who was blocking the car door: "Don't worry about it, I will die far away."

"What angry words are you talking about? Brother Ning," Xin Han said anxiously, "Is that the case?"

As for it?

Xu Ning didn't know.

He just turned into a clown desperate to make a fool of himself after confirming that no matter what he did, Lin Pengfei didn't care.

He also despises himself like this.

The gunshot shattered his love that had no place to rest all this time, leaving his self-esteem full of holes.Why should he bother, that person won't look at him even if he is dead or injured, no matter how much he does, he will humiliate himself.

He opened the car door and sat in, turned his head to look at Xin Han, and said in a determined tone, "Tell him, from today onwards, we will settle the matter."

Xu Ning didn't know how he drove back that way, and the wound on his arm was no longer bleeding when he got home.

Seeing him coming back, Jelly rushed over, pulled out the medicine box, cleaned up the wound skillfully and bandaged it himself, he was proficient in bandaging because of Lin Pengfei's practice, at some point that person would come to him with the wound, Let him face blood dripping, from the initial fear to the present numbness.

Lin Pengfei was not injured again for two years, but he developed a habit of keeping multiple medicine boxes at home, no matter which box or cabinet he could take out one at random.

In the past few years, he has been afraid every day. He is afraid that he will receive a call from Lin Pengfei that something unexpected happened.The thoughts of the troubled days and the prayers of the sleepless nights constitute thousands of days and nights.

It turns out that in the end, the saddest thing is not that we can never see each other again, but that we can never love again.

The bandage on his left forearm was wrapped around and around, and as the scissors passed through, he cried silently.

All his expectations for his relationship with Lin Pengfei had never involved a real separation, but this time, he really understood that they were finished, it had nothing to do with what Lin Pengfei did to him, it only had to do with his own giving up.

The deep love for many years has already grown into a piece of flesh in my heart, and the pain of being gouged out will be enough at once.

Xu Ning stayed at home for two whole days, curled up on the bed without eating, and Jelly also starved.

On Tuesday afternoon, with a pale face on his face, he hurriedly packed up and washed and went to the suburbs.

He sat with his mother on the grass in the hospital until dark, without saying a word, as if he was the patient in a daze.

Tian Meihui's disease is intermittent, and she is no different from ordinary people under normal conditions.Seeing her son's depression, she hugged him and patted his back slowly and repeatedly.

This is his mother's unique way of comforting, whether it is a child or an adult, it has never changed.Xu Ning also put his hand on his mother's back and patted it at the same frequency.

The two women are like robots who don't stop and don't feel tired. As long as they hug each other, the pain in the world has nothing to do with them.

After leaving the hospital, Xu Ning turned on his cell phone, which was always off.When I got into the taxi, my phone rang.

On the phone, Ai Mengmeng's voice was very loud: "My ancestor, what are you missing?"

Looking at the receding street scene outside the car window, Xu Ning replied patiently: "I didn't play missing."

"Teacher Suiqian couldn't find you, so he called me several times."

"What's the matter, is there something wrong with the manuscript? Didn't I hand it over to Xiao Luo temporarily?"

Ai Mengmeng sighed: "It's about the same. Anyway, there were two disputes during the review process, and he quarreled with the review team leader. Now it's very stiff and in a dilemma. I'm looking for you as the editor. I I advise you, call Teacher Suiqian first to find out the situation, and then call our editor-in-chief."

Xu Ning responded: "Okay, I see."

Xu Ning usually communicates with Suiqian online for all work matters, and it is rare that he needs to make a phone call. The phone rang after a few rings and was picked up.

Suiqian's voice was calm: "Hello."

"Teacher, I have something at home and I haven't troubled you for the past two days. Your side is now..."

"Is it convenient," Suiqian interrupted, "Let's talk about it after we come out and meet. I'll pick you up where you are."

Xu Ning got off the bus halfway, and after standing by the side of the road for more than ten minutes, he waited until Suiqian.He got into the car and said with a smile: "It's the first time you get in my car."

The chapped lips made Xu Ning smile a little stiffly. He fastened his seat belt and said, "I was absent from the preliminary review of the manuscript, and I don't know much about it."

Suiqian stared at the driver in front of him: "You are really mysterious."

"what?"

"Every time I see you, I feel hurt."

Xu Ning lowered his head to look at the white corner hidden under the long sleeves. Suiqian's eyes are always so sharp, and he can find his problems every time.

Suiqian continued before Xu Ning could speak: "Again, did you accidentally do it?"

"I......"

"There's no need to answer it so seriously," Sui Qian smiled and changed the subject, "Let's find a place to eat and talk about the original manuscript. You probably haven't eaten."

Xu Ning nodded: "No."

"That's right, I'll take you to a restaurant with good taste."

Suiqian brought Xu Ning to this old-fashioned restaurant. Xu Ning and Lin Pengfei used to come to this old restaurant. At that time, he was still in his sophomore year. He stood at the door and refused to enter because of the living expenses his mother called him, saying that it was too expensive.

At that time, Lin Pengfei walked in front like Suiqian now, opened the door for him, turned around and waited for him with a smile.

Xu Ning's emotions rose quickly due to the sadness of the past two days. Even in front of outsiders, he couldn't hold it back. He stood there and stopped moving forward: "Teacher, can we change?"

Suiqian was stunned for only a second, and he immediately let go of the doorknob: "Yes, we can go wherever you want."

"As long as you're not here, you can go anywhere."

They finally chose a Korean restaurant not far away. Xu Ning was really hungry. He hadn't eaten anything for two days. When the dishes came, he was eager to take the first bite. His tongue was burned, so he pursed his mouth. It took half a day to continue.

Sui Qian, who was sitting opposite, didn't go straight to the business topic: "I've been looking for you for the past two days."

Xu Ning hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I was delayed due to personal matters."

"I don't blame you," Suiqian smiled, "I'm so anxious that I can't reach you, and I'm about to call the emergency contact number you left at work. It's your girlfriend, right?"

Xu Ning realized that Suiqian had misunderstood his relationship with Ai Mengmeng, and shook his head, "No, they are good friends."

Suiqian nodded and continued: "There are two local review teams in the original manuscript saying that politics is too sensitive, but I don't plan to delete it. I think they are making a fuss out of a molehill. It's a simple matter, but I didn't expect it to become complicated."

Xu Ning took a sip of water: "It's okay, I will start to deal with it when I return to work tomorrow, and I will communicate with the review team properly. The author's creation must be as authentic as possible to be published."

They finished the meal like this for the first time, and Xu Ning's nerves, which had been tense for two days, were relaxed during this meal.

It was dark when he came out of the restaurant, and Suiqian offered to send Xu Ning home as usual, but this time, although Xu Ning hesitated, he did not refuse.

The car slowed down after entering the villa area from the crowded downtown area, and the spacious roads for pedestrians and vehicles have reached a rare level.Suiqian looked at the surrounding single-family villas and said, "The environment here is good."

Xu Ning pointed to the side of the road ahead: "Teacher, just park in front."

After the car stopped, he thanked him, and Sui Qian stopped him when he opened the door.

"Xu Ning."

Xu Ning stood outside the car and bent down to look at the car: "Huh?"

Suiqian took a deep breath and said: "If you encounter any difficulties, remember to tell me, I hope I can help you, don't carry it yourself."

Let's not say what Suiqian thinks for himself, but these words still warm Xu Ning's heart. He smiled lightly, nodded and closed the car door.

Walking into the pitch-black courtyard, Xu Ning felt very desolate in his heart. He still remembered the joy when he first moved in, and he was about to move out in no time.

Even if the house was in his name, it was still Lin Pengfei's money. Since he decided to separate, he would definitely not live in it. He still has some backbone.

After opening the door, he dragged his feet and stepped in. First, he called Jelly by name. He didn't hear any movement from the little guy, so he quickly turned on the light.

The man standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows slowly turned around, with a playful expression: "You found a home so soon?"

Xu Ning looked directly into the man's eyes, and his hand on the trouser line was cold.
