The First Light

The heavy rain washed the muddy land, and the raindrops slapped the surroundings, making a loud noise.Guo Yang felt that he was directly lying on the ground. This feeling was familiar to him. It was not the road in the city or the countryside, but the ground of the forest.The rain was pouring on his mouth and nose, and Guo Yang was weak all over. He tried hard to open his mouth wider to let more air in, but it was useless.The amount of rain far exceeded the oxygen and poured directly into his slightly open mouth, and he felt like he was about to suffocate.

Finally, he struggled out of the dream, removed the quilt covering his mouth and nose, and sat up suddenly.It was pitch black.He got up and got out of bed, took two steps in the dark without pressure, reached out and touched the front, and when the soft cloth entered his palm, he pulled it hard.

Outside the window, the sun was shining brightly, and the high-rise buildings in the distance outlined the skyline of the city.This is not the forest, but L city where he lives.

An accident three years ago made some of Guo Yang's memories go wrong. When he woke up in the hospital and saw his family members standing anxiously by the bed, he no longer remembered what he had experienced. An accident, and he doesn't remember the physical pain that accident brought him.

The young body recovered quickly. His elder sister Guo Mei carelessly explained to him how the vehicle he was riding in turned over a ravine in Yunnan, and how he was rescued by the local ethnic minority folks and sent to the hospital. Come back to L city.In fact, this has little impact on Guo Yang. He only hopes that he can personally express his gratitude to the ethnic minority folks who saved him in the future. The shadow of daily life later completely disappeared from his mind.

After his body recovered, his parents told him again and again, don't think too much, don't think too much, take a good rest and recover well.But he felt that the missing part of his life was very important to him. In the end, under his repeated questioning, his mother finally told him exactly how he went to university in the United States and how he came back to work in a bank. I told him once, and explained to him that the reason why I didn't tell him before was because I was afraid that he would be sad.

There are several supporting evidences for what his mother said, for example, Guo Yang can watch English TV programs and listen to English news without any effort, and his sister brought over the postcard Guo Yang sent from the Golden Gate Bridge, but Guo Yang is not completely convinced by these.

Finally, when he was fully able to move about on his own, he decided to find someone else.He hoped that that person could say the same thing as his mother.

That person was a clear figure in his vague memory.Her name is Liu Yixiao, she is a quiet girl, her hair is very long, and she is also very beautiful, in Guo Yang's impression, she is wearing a blue and white sports school uniform, sitting beside Guo Yang and looking at her homework He used his hand to push the falling hair behind his ears. Those impressions were so beautiful. Guo Yang was glad that he could still retain such a beautiful picture after the car accident and after forgetting everything.

For some reason, Guo Yang remembered where Liu Yixiao's house lived and the house number of her house. It was a winding alley in the old city of L City. He drove to a nearby shopping center and walked there.The house numbers in that alley were chaotic. Guo Yang searched one by one, and finally found an old aunt in a small corner yard. She told Guo Yang in surprise that the Liu family had moved away for many years, and the old aunt enthusiastically helped Guo Yang found the phone number of Liu Yixiao's aunt's house. After a phone call, Guo Yang finally heard Liu Yixiao's voice on the phone. On the third day after that, he met Liu Yixiao in a quiet cafe. Yi Xiao's real person.

Guo Yang felt a little strange to her voice, which was probably the sequelae of the car accident, but Guo Yang felt so familiar with her face. He had too many questions to ask Liu Yixiao, and wanted to learn from Liu Yixiao Get an answer there.

"How have you been all these years?" Liu Yixiao was a little shy, unwilling to raise her head, just stared at the cup in front of her, and asked in a low voice.

"I..." A lot of questions crowded together and stuck in Guo's throat, making him unable to figure out which one to spit out first. Finally, after choosing randomly, he asked, "Am I going to the United States?" Yet?"

Liu Yixiao was taken aback, then raised her head in surprise, the afternoon sun shining on her face and hair, in Guo Yang's eyes, was so beautiful.

"Have you gone to America?" Liu Yixiao whispered, "Are you...asking me?" She shook her head as she spoke, "How should I tell you? Back then, how I begged Don't go to the United States, how I begged you so hard to stay by my side, how I begged you crying, how I am willing to apply for the same volunteer as you no matter how much I score in the college entrance examination, and to be with you .”

Liu Yixiao shed tears, and Guo Yang suddenly became nervous. The answer was indeed in line with what his mother said, but it was far beyond his expectations. Liu Yixiao was not only his classmate, but also his former... girlfriend?

Guo Yang hurriedly apologized, although he didn't know where he was wrong, but it must be his fault for letting such a beautiful woman cry in front of him.

"Have you lost your memory?" Liu Yixiao's tears were still wet, and after hearing Guo Yang's explanation, she was taken aback again, "A car accident?"

Guo Yang nodded, and exhausted all his language organization skills to explain to her all the experiences he had heard.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about your experience in America." Liu Yixiao replied a little coldly, "Whether it's happiness or misfortune, I don't know about that."

"I...well, at least I'm very unlucky now, can you be happier seeing me like this?" Guo Yang asked sincerely.

Liu Yixiao stared blankly at Guo Yang's silly expression, bursting into tears.

At least, she smiled.Guo Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

So, logically, Liu Yixiao became the only person Guo Yang could talk to in this city, other than his parents, brother, and sister.

Liu Yixiao is a small doctor in a community hospital. She works during the day, and occasionally comes out to meet Guo Yang at night or on weekends when she is free, chat with him, help him recall the past, and tell him a lot about what he has forgotten. Interesting thing, but Liu Yixiao never mentioned the relationship between the two of them again. Guo Yang couldn't understand why he would abandon such a good girl and go to the land of the US emperor alone. immature.

Guo Yang accepted the advice of his elder brother and sister, and chose a red hotel among his father's various industries to be the small owner. In the winery, Guo Yang's father will give priority to the selection of high-quality parts, so Guo Yang's red hotel business is booming.

One day, Liu Yixiao came to Guo Yang's Red Hotel by herself. At that time, the clerk had already left work, and Guo sat lazily at the round table and pressed the calculator, counting the current day's turnover.Liu Yixiao pushed the door open and came in, holding a thermos bottle in her hand, which contained hot soup.

"Your family is really rich." Liu Yixiao looked at the price tags of red wine around and sighed.

"Is it because of our family's richness? Did you ever get bullied when you were young?"

"Is that the case, you have a good relationship with your parents now?" Liu Yixiao asked casually.

Guo Yang almost choked on a mouthful of soup, and asked, "Do I have a bad relationship with them?"

Liu Yixiao realized that she had said something wrong: "No, in high school, she was probably young and rebellious."

After being silent for a while, Guo Yang stood up and walked to Liu Yixiao's side: "Can you tell me?"

Liu Yixiao became embarrassed, lowered her head, and managed to utter a few words after a long time: "I heard from you that your brother and sister are twins, and you... are not your parents' biological son."

Guo Yang was taken aback, and sat down on the chair: "Isn't he my own son?"

"But it's not a hug. Your father is actually your uncle...it should be like this." Liu Yixiao tried her best to smooth things over.

Indeed, not his biological son, Liu Yixiao's words seemed to open the door to Guo Yang's memories. When he was very young, he was sent to his uncle's house by the police, and has since become the third child in their family. But, why, what happened at that time What, Guo Yang couldn't remember at all.

The silence didn't last too long, it's been so many years, it's not an important matter, on the contrary, tonight should be another good opportunity for Guo Yang, he decided to temporarily put aside those messy memories, stood up and hugged him suddenly Liu Yixiao in front of her acted impulsively like a high school kid.

Liu Yixiao was taken aback and pushed Guo Yang's hand hard.

"Can we... be together?" Guo Yang asked, but he held her hand and felt Liu Yixiao's teardrops after a while.

"I am married."
