Sincerely waiting to return to the building, the twilight is deep

Chapter No.16

Minglou said he was just asleep.

Although Dr. Su didn't say anything, Mingcheng knew that Minglou's condition could not be ignored.

After all, under Mingcheng's repeated questioning, Dr. Su simply held his head in silence and expressed that his life was miserable.

Minglou half-lyed on the bed, looking at the message Mingcheng handed him.Obviously, the estrangement between Mingtai and Wang Tianfeng has not been eliminated. If we increase the fire now, will it be possible for Mingtai to have an epiphany and go to the other side.

Mingtai has been in contact with people and couples from Uncle Li's side, but the effect is not very satisfactory.Originally thought that according to Mingtai's personality, a mysterious woman like Cheng Jinyun would definitely attract his attention.

Mingcheng actually asked Minglou if parents' aesthetics would affect their children.

Minglou looked at him, then at Mingjing: "I've never raised a child, how would I know?"

Mingcheng secretly sighed, the eldest sister's theory about female juniors probably didn't affect Mingtai, but it affected other people.

Cheng Jinyun was exactly three years older than Mingtai.

Mingyue told him that Uncle Mingtai got along better with those who were ten years older than him.

At this time, Mingcheng can only find a way to divert his thoughts and avoid random thoughts.

It's Chinese New Year, the new government has nothing to do, Mingcheng helped Minglou ask for a day off, and then hid it from the elder sister.

Originally, Minglou disagreed, so Mingcheng directly gave him milk with sleeping pill powder.He was Minglou's secretary, no one would believe what he said, and the Ming mansion was not afraid of Wang Manchun coming to make trouble.

The eldest sister collected some valuables at home and said she was going to save them.

The world is chaotic, and there is still a way in the future, so as not to fall into despair.

These words frightened Mingtai very much, and he quickly vowed that he would study hard, and in the future, the Ming family would be prosperous, so that the elder sister would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

Der Spiegel doesn't matter: anyway, who didn't start from nothing.

Mingcheng thought about it, and took out all the things he found in various corners of the Ming mansion since he was a child, and there was a valuable jade brave inside.These were bought for Mingtai by them over the years, and the young master threw them wherever.

Mingtai also took out the gold pocket watch for the elder sister to hold.

Ming Jing put the pocket watch back into Ming Tai's pocket, letting him carry it every day as before.

Minglou and Mingcheng glanced at each other.

Although Aunt Gui is an old servant of the Ming family, it has been several years, and there are not many old people left in the Ming mansion, and most of them don't know her, and they are very polite to her.

Aunt Gui probably also knew that her status was embarrassing, so she tried to avoid Mingcheng as much as possible.

Minglou wanted to persuade him again, and also expressed his helplessness.

Mingcheng expressed his attitude very resolutely.

Minglou finally let go and agreed to send Aunt Gui away.

Aunt Gui is finally leaving.

Der Spiegel also paid the travel expenses.

Minglou asked Axiang where Mingcheng was.

Ah Xiang pointed to the upstairs.

The tall, thin man is behind the curtain.

The scene of Xiao Suo's parting is in front of him, and Mingcheng feels a little uncomfortable.

He feels that he is not a good person, but he is not a bad person.

It is best not to see each other again, this was his wish when he first entered the Ming family.

It's better not to meet each other, this is the only thought he has when he looks at Aunt Gui's back.

Ming Jing told him that Aunt Gui's life has not been good in the past two years. Although she has planted some land, the situation is not good, the world is chaotic, and it is difficult to even make ends meet.

He touched the scar on his right forearm, which, like his heart, would never heal again.

However, it was also this woman who held an umbrella for him on that light raining morning, and knelt down to tidy his sleeves: "Ah Cheng, let's go home."

If Mingcheng were to make another choice, he wondered if he would let Aunt Gui stay.

After all, I still can't bear it.

He locked himself in his room and didn't even eat lunch.

"It's just out of order, and you still want me to treat you to dinner." Minglou opened the door and came in, took a closer look, "Why, you're still angry."

"Brother." Minglou called out flatly, turned his head away, and didn't look at him.

"Ah Cheng." Minglou stood at the door and did not go over.

The sunlight coated Mingcheng with a layer of silver, and it seemed that Mingcheng himself was shining.

A rare quiet and comfortable feeling in the afternoon.

Minglou knew what Mingcheng was looking at.

There used to be a tree there with a bird's nest on the branch. That year cuckoos took over the nest and pushed out the young birds and unhatched eggs.Mingcheng raised it carefully for three days, but the little bird still died.

Minglou felt inexplicably panicked, he walked over and closed the curtains, turned around and looked at Mingcheng with an indifferent face: "You are not a liar."

Ever since he remembered that incident again, he was afraid that Mingcheng would be hurt, even if it was a small crack.

Mingyue looked at the spoon hanging above her head, had no choice but to stand up, hold Mingcheng's wrist with two small hands, and wrapped the spoon into her mouth in one gulp.

"Father, what are you thinking?" Mingyue looked at Mingcheng who had recovered, her little head tilted.

Steamed custard, this is Mingcheng's favorite food.

Children from ordinary families can't afford expensive food, so Aunt Gui will steam a bowl of egg custard with their rice.This is already much better than the children in the alley.

After arriving at Ming's house, he threw away everything related to Aunt Gui, including this.

At noon yesterday, Aunt Gui steamed a bowl for Mingyue. Mingjing said that the little girl picked up all the rice with a spoon.

Aunt Gui also seemed to have received encouragement and hints, so she changed ways to cook for Mingyue.

Wiping the yellow custard from the corner of Mingyue's mouth with his hands, Mingcheng handed the bowl to Mingyue: "Take it to Auntie Ah Xiang."

Mingyue jumped out of bed: "Come on." Her little feet stomped on the floor.

Mingcheng looked at the faint golden color on his fingers, a little lost in thought.

He slowly raised his hand, and the cool liquid on his fingers touched his lips, and he licked it lightly with his tongue, which was slightly salty.

A tear slipped out of the eye socket.

Mingcheng continued to maintain an attitude of turning a blind eye and listening to Aunt Gui's existence.

Minglou had no other choice but was willing to force him, so he let him go.

Because there were people in the bank, Mingcheng soon knew the number of the safe opened by the eldest sister.

However, after he passed the news to Minglou, Minglou's condolences made him very uncomfortable.

This kind of sympathy is as if he is a weak person now, and he will be shattered at any time with every step.

He would rather his elder brother just say to him: "Well done." That's fine.

When the two were discussing the status of Mingtai's recent task completion, Mingtai shouted angrily from the living room: "Mingyue!"

This sound made the two people look at each other, not knowing what happened.

The moment the door was opened, Mingyue bumped into Mingcheng's stomach.

When the two of them fell to the ground, Mingcheng and Mingyue were in front of them.

The instinctive quality of the body allowed Mingcheng's head to escape.

Mingyue didn't seem to know how dangerous she was just now, but smiled and looked at Minglou who pulled him up: "Second uncle, little uncle has a watch."

"Give it back to me." Mingtai pointed at Mingyue with his index finger, "I told you not to touch my things, but you still rummaged." He reached out to grab it, but the little girl dodged it again.

"Mingtai, take Mingyue to another place." Minglou pulled Mingyue out from behind him and pushed her to Mingtai's side.

"Finally caught you, return the watch to me." Mingtai grabbed Mingyue's clothes and grabbed the watch.

"Don't give, don't give, don't give." Mingyue kept saying no, feeling that she couldn't grab it, and turned around and cried with Mingcheng in her arms: "Uncle, my little uncle bullied me, he bullied children."

Facing the little girl who was working so hard, the three big men felt that it was not their fault.

Minglou took the watch from Mingyue and sneered unconsciously.

Mingcheng and Mingtai got goosebumps from this sneer.

This Wang Tianfeng gave him a shot, it really was an unusual treatment.

Back then, when Wang Tianfeng left Shanghai, Minglou specially went to see him off, to see how Wang Tianfeng would express his comradeship.

In the end, the lunatic gave him a very pleasant surprise: three packs of rice totaling 150 catties.

It is said that he consciously has no arrears with Minglou, but if there is any arrears, it is because he ate the Ming family's food when he was unable to support himself in the orphanage a few years ago, and now he has all returned to Minglou.

Then, he dragged his luggage and left in style.

Of course, Minglou was not polite, and asked a rickshaw to take the three bags of rice back to Ming Mansion.

"Sir?" Mingcheng was patted on the shoulder.

With his quick reaction ability, he immediately grabbed the hand and threw him to the ground.

"Ah!" The man screamed, and finally rolled on the ground twice before standing up.

Mingcheng recognized her, she was the little girl who bought fireworks.

She was wearing a long dress from a church girls' school, and she had just scattered the books on the floor.

"It's you?" He pulled the girl up, "Are you a student?"

The round-faced girl stretched out her hand to Mingcheng: "Yes, Fireworks, let's get to know each other."

Mingcheng put the book he picked up from the ground into the girl's hand. It was a Journey to the West, and the gold-plated font was shining brightly in the sun.

The girl felt that he was not interesting enough: "Sir, can't we get to know each other?"

Mingcheng shook his head: "We still keep a little distance between us."

The girl was really disappointed: "I want to save you, are you still like this?"

"What's wrong?" Mingcheng looked around vigilantly, there was nothing wrong.

Fireworks felt like hitting the wall: "Ask you a question?"

"What?" Mingcheng felt that there must be something wrong.

"If a group of students are coming to attack you, will you not fight back?"

What kind of question is this, when he is a fool.

Mingcheng replied very seriously: "I will definitely not beat them into cripples."

Mingcheng asked Sister Axiang what book she was reading recently.

Axiang said it was a dream of Red Mansions, and asked Mingcheng what happened.

Mingcheng said that a friend wanted to buy a copy of Journey to the West, but he didn't know which edition he wanted.

Ding Jing sponsored a girls' reading club at the church girls' school, and the round-faced girl didn't seem like a new member.

"Big sister, could it be that big sister?" Mingcheng handed over the cup in his hand.

Minglou didn't pick it up, so he picked up the cup on the table and poured water for himself these two days.

"It's not sure yet, Dr. Su said they have their own set of passwords." Mingcheng shook his head, he really had no choice but to take some sleeping pills.

"Let Dr. Su find the original code as soon as possible." Minglou rubbed his forehead.

"Brother, you should go see a doctor." Mingcheng handed over the pill in his hand.

Takeda Xiong took the initiative to make an appointment with Mingcheng.

Minglou didn't forget Wang Manchun's words, and asked Mingcheng to be careful, so he went to visit Wang Manchun himself.

According to the agreement, Mingcheng waited at the door of the cafe on time.

A little girl came over timidly: "Sir, do you want to buy flowers?"

The little girl looked at Mingcheng with big round eyes, the expectation in those eyes made Mingcheng feel pity, this is just a child as old as Mingyue.

Today is Western Valentine's Day, and the little girl is selling roses.But now it was afternoon, and the roses were not as fresh as the morning ones, and they were a little droopy, and it was even more difficult to sell them.

He bought five flowers and paid more for flowers.

The little girl took the money and ran away.

Takeda Yuu arrived at this time, wearing a slim suit and holding a few roses in his hand.

It seems that today's flower girl business is doing well.

"Give it to you." Takeda Xiong handed the rose in his hand to Mingcheng.

Mingcheng took it: "These flower girls also don't know how to look at people."

Such ridicule did not ease the awkward atmosphere.

This is their third official meeting.After being separated for too long, and alienated in terms of identity, the two of them basically only remained silent.

"Aunt Gui, have you returned to Ming's house?" Takeda Xiong looked at Mingcheng.

Mingcheng's expression darkened, and he nodded in tacit agreement.

Still two cups of coffee, this time, Mingcheng didn't add sugar either.

He needs to stimulate his taste buds to wake him up.

Quiet even gave birth to the illusion of emptiness.

Mingcheng looked at the endless flow of people outside the window, hurrying along the roads that will never be known tomorrow.

"Cheng," Takeda Xiong looked at him, "Can you leave the Ming family?"

Mingcheng looked at the watch on his wrist, the hands were ticking rapidly: "I'm sorry, I can't."

Takeda Yuruo twitched the corner of his mouth.

In the evening, Mingcheng went to pick up Minglou.

Takeda Xiong lives in the hotel, saying that he is alone, and the restaurant is more lively.

Mingcheng was noncommittal, but after returning to the Ming mansion, he checked the car from the inside to the outside, and went to Minglou after confirming that it was all right.I can't tell why, but I just instinctively don't trust Takeda Yuu.

Because, Mingcheng hinted, Yoko Nantian handed over the task of investigating the inner ghost to Wang Manchun.Ming Lou made a last-ditch effort, but it was clearly unsuccessful.

Thinking about it, Wang Manchun already hated the Revolutionary Party, but now that Wang Fuqu died, the hatred became even worse, how could Wang Manchun stop.

Minglou knew that there was already a mountain and sea between him and Wang Manchun.In the end, Wang Manchun had no choice but to die.

What he didn't know was the confession that Mingcheng received today.

Takeda Xiong grabbed Mingcheng's wrist, earnestly and sincerely: "Let's go together."

"I don't care who owns this world, I don't care what will happen in this world. Two people, we are two people alive, and we are two people after death. We depend on each other, regardless of you and me." Aya in the memory said this to him.

Mingcheng looked at Takeda Xiong and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."

Takeda Xiong let go of him: "Could it be that without Minglou, you will be free."

Mingcheng was a little worried about him, but he heard this: "What's wrong with you? Don't mess around!"

Takeda Yuki looked at him dejectedly: "You don't need me anymore."

"Aya, leave the Japanese." Although Mingcheng knew that he said something wrong, it was really out of emotion.

Takeda Xiong shook his head: "Similarly, I can't do it either."

If, one day I die, what will happen to you...

Mingcheng knew that this was the most taboo topic for Minglou.

He never said it, but it doesn't mean he never wanted to.

Dr. Su said that his musculoskeletal body was tougher than other people's, but his internal organs were more fragile.

Mingyue's head hammer can make him hurt all night, and the light sleep is another nightmare after another.

Tossing and turning, it was difficult to fall asleep, so Mingcheng had to sit up again.

Open the curtains, the moonlight shines into the room, it is a little cold.

Mingcheng looked at the vase on the cabinet in a daze. At that time, Minglou asked him what code name he wanted, and he pointed to the blue and white porcelain vase.

Minglou asked him why.

For no reason, I just think that bottle is very similar to him.

The seemingly hard shell is actually so fragile.
