Clear Feather of the Ring

After the three of them came out, Xia Wenyi still wanted to go shopping in the surrounding shopping malls due to jet lag, but Yi Qing took a taxi and headed back on the pretext that he had to go back to the bookstore to deal with some matters.Lu Ming drove Xia Wenyi around the city for a few laps, and finally bought some barbecue and beer and went back to the hotel.

Xia Wenyi grew up abroad since he was a child. He has never eaten such food from food stalls. His fluent Chinese is thanks to a grandfather who loves Chinese studies and has always insisted on bilingual education for him.

He looked at the bag of barbecue, then looked at Lu Ming next to him, who was holding a skewer of beer, took one himself, and took a few mouthfuls tentatively.Because grandparents also lived with them, in order to cater to their own tastes, several chefs were hired to cook. Whether it is Western food or Chinese food, they can eat the most authentic taste.The barbecue taste was not too strong, and he was quite used to eating. In addition, his character was rough and casual, so he immediately ate and drank with Lu Ming.

After the two of them ate to a certain extent, they drank gradually, and the topic became less polite and empty than before.Xia Wenyi sat on the ground with his back against the end of the bed, and shook the wine bottle in his hand to Lu Ming: "Lu Ming, how did Yi Qing and that surnamed Long break up?"

Lu Ming lay on the sofa, hiccupping: "Didn't Yi Qing tell you?"

"Do you think he will tell me this? You have seen Yi Qing's attitude towards me today, and I don't feel like I'm losing face in front of you. He doesn't like me and avoids me. Anyone can see that out, but I don't care. I've taken a fancy to him, and I'm going to treat him well."

"It's useless. Talk to Yi Qing, you can't afford it, and he won't like you." Lu Ming drank the remaining half bottle of beer in one gulp, and poured a large amount of beer on the side of the sofa. beer bottle, "As long as he still has Long Tianyu in his heart, you have no chance."

"They have separated, as far as I know, it has been at least six years." Xia Wenyi threw the skewers in the trash can, "That man is heterosexual, and the one with him in the restaurant is his girlfriend Is it because of this that Yi Qing was dumped? Garbage." As soon as he mentioned Long Tianyu, his face immediately showed the contemptuous look he had when facing Long Tianyu in the restaurant.

"Well, before being with Yi Qing, he had a girlfriend. But when it comes to breaking up, it's hard to say who dumped the other. It's just forced by the parents of both parties. You know, in China, this kind of relationship is There are too many obstacles."

Xia Wenyi snorted, "Yi Qing shouldn't have been with this kind of man in the first place, and he shouldn't come back now. To be honest, his family is quite selfish, and just to keep him in the country, they forced such a man." Give him a charity organization. Do you know how many award-winning papers Yi Qing published during college? This is a waste of his talent."

"The wish of the elders, there is no way."

"Fart. Why should a living person be restrained by a dead person. I came here, only to see that Yi Qing's life here is not good. This time, I came here to bring him back."

"Back to France?"

"Ah."

Lu Ming sat up from the sofa and looked at Xia Wenyi: "Are you sure he will go back with you?"

"His organization can't raise funds, and it won't last long. Without this organization, it's meaningless for him to stay here. Go back and continue to start a company with me and write books. This is the life Yi Qing should live."

"He won't be with you."

"I can afford to wait."

"It seems that you still don't understand Yi Qing." Lu Ming kicked away the glass bottle under his feet, with a bit of irritability in his voice: "As long as it is someone he recognizes, he can love him forever. Do you believe it?"

"Long Tianyu is not his first love, you are." Xia Wenyi stared at Lu Ming with determination in his eyes: "Since he can break up with you and fall in love with Long Tianyu again, then he can also fall in love with me again."

"That's different. I broke up with him because I betrayed him." As soon as Lu Ming mentioned this, remorse and disappointment that could not be concealed by drunkenness appeared on Lu Ming's face, "But Long Tianyu never betrayed him. So He won't let Long Tianyu go."

Xia Wenyi was silent for a while, then sighed.He had already taken off his coat, which was a white shirt and a black cardigan.As if feeling too stuffy, he impatiently took off the sweater and threw it on the ground, and unbuttoned a few buttons on the chest of the shirt, revealing his muscular chest muscles.After doing all this, he finally felt a bit more comfortable and exhaled, leaned heavily back to the end of the bed, and looked at Lu Ming: "Do you know how I met Yi Qing?"

Lu Ming looked at him without speaking.Xia Wenyi picked up a pack of cigarettes from the ground, took out one, lit it, put it in his mouth, and threw a few more towards Lu Ming.After taking a few sips, he said slowly: "My family has a winery. In summer, when the grapes in the winery are ripe, we have to hire temporary workers to pick them in the garden. Yi Qing and some of his classmates are I was introduced by an intermediary company. You probably have never done that kind of work. In summer, the high temperature outside is over 30 degrees, and the space between the grape racks is narrow, making it even more stuffy. It’s the sun, which is not something ordinary people can stand. I noticed him on the first day he came. You know, people can pretend to be rich or poor, but the inherent temperament cannot be pretended Yes. From the first time I saw Yi Qing, I felt that this person is purely a nobleman who has nothing to do to experience life, and he must leave if he can't last a day."

"He didn't leave. He finished working at my house for a whole week. In just one week, his neck and arms were sun-peeled, and his whole body was dark and thin. I thought he would be gone after this job, and I couldn't bear it." After asking for a while, he said that he would go to the next vineyard."

"I followed him for a month, and followed him from one orchard to another. I saw that his neck was blistered, and he was so hot that he couldn't eat at noon and could only drink water from bottle to bottle. Watch him pick grapes in silence in his soaked T-shirt."

Speaking of this, Xia Wenyi threw the cigarette in his mouth into the empty bottle, thought of something, and his eyes softened: "I watched it for a month, but then I couldn't stand it anymore. That job is really not done by humans. I and He said, don’t do it, if you need money, I will lend it to you.”

"He didn't agree." Lu Ming interjected, "He never accepts other people's benefits easily, because he is afraid of being in debt."

"Yes, he didn't even talk to me. Later, he stopped working in the orchard. I found the agency he worked for and found out that he went to work in a nightclub. I went to that nightclub and he was there Serving wine on the plate, from nine o'clock in the evening to five o'clock the next day. It was very noisy and messy inside, so I found him and asked him why he didn't change to another job, it would be better to go to a Chinese restaurant to serve the plate."

"Do you know what he said? He said that the tips are high, and he still has two Chinese tutors during the day, so he can only work the night shift."

"I was very pleased when I heard it. To be honest, there must be many people in this world who have had a harder life than him, but when I saw him doing this, I felt very uncomfortable. These jobs, what kind It doesn't match the aura exuding from him, he shouldn't be the one who does these things."

"I asked someone to find out where he was studying, and then his family. It's about the same as I thought. His family's conditions are indeed very good."

"He didn't use his family's money. He went to study in France without telling his family." Lu Ming said.

"I also learned about this later. I admit that he attracted me. His silence, loneliness, indifference, arrogance, stubbornness, and mystery all attracted me to get closer to him and understand him better."

"Attraction is one thing, falling in love is another. Without that, with his always indifferent attitude towards me, I would have given up after a while. It was the disappearance, this you I know it too."

Lu Ming nodded.If it weren't for the disappearance, Yi's family and he probably wouldn't know where Yi Qing is until now. "What happened then?" Lu Ming asked.

"We lost our way in the primeval forest. You know, the travel agency that Yi Qing was at at that time, which is the company we are now co-founding, in order to attract tourists, it needs to develop some unique tourist attractions to meet the tastes of different tourists At that time, a small group of us went to collect scenery first, and unknowingly went deep into the jungle, and deviated further and further from the original route, until we realized that we were lost. It was very desperate at that time. One team member I accidentally broke my leg and couldn't walk. We took turns carrying him for a while and we were exhausted. There was no signal on the mobile phone at all. After we called the emergency call, the battery was almost exhausted. The original plan was a two-day round trip , everyone only prepared rations for three days. At that time, we had been trapped in the mountains for four days, and there was not much left to eat. Rescue was delayed, everyone gradually lost hope, and the mood was so bad pole."

"At that time we thought we were going to die there like this, because in the end, the water we brought with us was almost gone. Someone suggested that we should leave something even if we died, so everyone took a piece of paper and wrote I said some words, threw them into a bottle and sealed them up. It can be regarded as my last words and farewell to my loved ones.”

"The night before we were rescued, Yi Qing and I were lying together. We had been out of food for two days, and we were so hungry. In order to divert attention, I forced him to chat with me. Of course, most of it was me asking myself. Answer, he occasionally responded. He took out his mobile phone to check it from time to time, but it was actually out of battery, and I don’t know why he kept holding it. I asked him, if I give you a chance now, I can make a call, you Who will you call?"

"He didn't say it at first, so I said it myself. Later, he was afraid that I would be annoyed by what I said, so he opened his mouth."

"What did he say?" Lu Ming listened fascinated.

"'I don't know his number, I don't know if he still has that number after all these years,' he said."

"I really wanted to know who he would call and what he would say, so I told him what would happen if he knew the person's number. 'I didn't say anything, just wanted to hear his voice. I have been I haven’t heard his voice, and I almost can’t remember what his voice is like.’”

"He wants to call Long Tianyu." Lu Ming listened with a dry voice.

"I didn't know the existence of Long Tianyu at the time. I didn't know until after I was rescued, I took the bottle with everyone's last words, opened his piece of paper, and read it. Do you know what Yi Qing wrote?" ?”

"Did he mention Long Tianyu?"

Xia Wenyi shook his head, with a bitter smile: "There was nothing written on that paper. It was a painting, a portrait of a boy. It was only that day that I knew there was such a person who had such a special status in Yi Qing. He is The person he most wanted to call before he died, who was his last words."

The sky gradually brightened, and the light from outside illuminated the dim room little by little.Xia Wenyi stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and let the sun shine in.He stood in front of the window, staring out of the window, with a bottomless blue ocean in his eyes, rippling with gentle waves: "His words that night and the painting in the bottle both made my heart ache."

Xia Wenyi turned around and looked at Lu Ming with firm eyes: "I love Yi Qing. I am different from you and Long Tianyu. I have seen his hard life with my own eyes, so I will not hurt him and let him Live like that again."
