Prey [Zhu Chaoyang x Ye Chimin]

Ye Chimin didn't know what he meant by telling this story. In fact, she didn't have time to think about it carefully, because the study plan for the first half of the first semester had already been sent to the mailbox, Zhu Chaoyang, the devil.

Those who can be admitted to Peking University are the dragons and phoenixes. Everyone has plans for the future. She is average in talent and hardworking. She was really discouraged at first, especially seeing that many people are versatile in addition to grades, basketball, Folk dance, violin, and a roommate who can play the guqin, she is so envious. My father always said that girls should not put too much pressure on themselves, but he did not show the shadow of his childhood.

If prudence could force her to learn another piano at that time...

"It's just another person, and you are you. It's scary for everyone to look the same," Zhu Chaoyang said flatly on the phone, "Do as I say."

"Oh." She felt a little more comfortable in her heart, and obediently carried a stack of books to the library.

The two universities are almost opposite each other, but they haven't seen each other for a long time, and they usually only communicate by phone and email.

She will receive gifts for big and small festivals. The National Day is a burberry windbreaker and sw boots, with a [-]cm heel, and the height is very suitable.

When Ye Chimin received the courier, he couldn't laugh or cry. He was in the same city and didn't sign it. Who would it be if it wasn't him? He pretended to be smart.

Moreover, they didn't mention it when they contacted by phone or email, pretending not to know, there are such naive people in the world.

"58, 59, 3 minutes!"

Seeing that there was still no movement on the water surface, You Jingjing had no choice but to continue counting, one, two, three... until three and a half minutes later, Zhu Chaoyang emerged from the water, puffing out his cheeks and panting heavily.

"Your face is turning purple." You Jingjing wanted to give him a chest massage, but it was hard to do it because there were so many people.

"Are you going to cross the Yangtze River?" asked the roommate.

Zhu Chaoyang smiled, took a few deep breaths, and plunged into the water again.

He and these friends still swim together, travel around during the holidays, and learn to drive together. You Jingjing still shows undisguised affection for him, but this time he took a cautious attitude and tried not to give her any illusions, but the result was nothing. Different, she is still enthusiastic.

Maybe I am a scumbag by nature like my father.

At the same time, he can't wait to give Xiao Min all the beautiful and exquisite things in the world, and he doesn't want to make her feel pressured. Ye Jun has come to Beijing more times than before. Although he doesn't know the brand, his daughter has added too many clothes. .

I chose a red cashmere coat and Chanel leather bag for Christmas. When I was shopping in China World Trade Center, I met You Jingjing and asked her to refer to the coat style.

"Looking at the height, the classic models are not bad." You Jingjing tentatively replied.

"1.6 meters five, six six." He recalled the slender body he once held in his arms.

You Jingjing, who is 1.5 meters five, was very disappointed.

The New Year is a Dior embroidered sundress and a pair of Jimmy Choo fairy high heels. The little girl has grown up and needs outfits for high-end occasions.

Ye Chimin is used to receiving gifts, and occasionally receives love letters. She never pretends to boys who don't want to date, let alone give them any hope. All her expectations are only for one person.

Ye Jun came to Beijing before the New Year’s Day and introduced his daughter and his comrade-in-arms’ son to have a meal. The two families have known each other for many years. The company has a car and a house.

The other party was very satisfied, but Ye Chimin didn't like him, saying that she didn't want to make friends too early. She had her own plan for life and didn't want to delay others.

"Minmin, do you really want to go to Oxford?" Ye Jun frowned.

"It's just a plan. Whether it can be realized depends on whether you are worthy of cooperation, Dad. Don't introduce me to a boyfriend every day."

Ye Jun had an innocent face, "Everyone said that if you don't look for them while in college, all the good boys will be picked away."

"This is Peking University, Dad. Everyone around me is smarter than me and works harder than me. No one regards finding a boyfriend as the ultimate goal. If I get married early and have children, why should I go to college?"

Seeing his daughter's resolute attitude, Ye Jun gave up. Anyway, the son of his comrade-in-arms has no chance, so Zhu Chaoyang has no chance, that's fine.

Sending off Ye Jun, Ye Chimin walked to the library alone, the night became darker, and the street lights on both sides reflected the dim yellow trees, as if back in high school, walking through the campus with him under the stars, is there any boy in the world who can be better than him ?

But what are you doing?She doesn't understand, does she like me or not?Isn't it said that the ultimate goal of liking is possession?

The roommate is not a gossip, the person who can’t stand the gift is too mysterious, and the gift can fit the girl’s point every time. This pair of shoes is passed around by everyone, tsk tsk, it’s like Cinderella’s crystal slipper.

There will be rumors coming from nothing. Ye Chimin was seen by someone when he was dating that young man before. According to word of mouth, this mysterious rich man was placed on him. Ye Chimin didn't know it. In the dark, later even Zhu Chaoyang heard from fellow villagers that Ye Chimin had a boyfriend, a small boss, a young and handsome man with a big hand, and a family friend. He went out to drink all night that day.

Parents' orders are not all wrong, he has no confidence in himself.

The inflection point is always coming, sooner rather than later, he doesn't want his fate to coincide again, so he can only accept the reality.

Halfway through drinking, I found You Jingjing sitting next to me at some point. She can drink well and has a good personality, so she is suitable to be a buddy.

"Who gave you your name?" Under the influence of alcohol, You Jingjing in front of her eyes also became a bit feminine.

"My mother, what's the matter, doesn't it sound good?"

"Change it to one." He muttered to himself, with flashes of vision in front of his eyes, countless thoughts rushed to his face, maybe it was time to make a decision, there must be a decision.

If you marry You Jingjing, you really have to change your name.

Everything, everything starts all over again.

The next morning, Zhu Chaoyang returned to the dormitory as if nothing had happened. He went to class in the morning as usual, and went to the cafeteria with his buddies at noon. Chen Xi, are you okay?"

Zhu Chaoyang was tongue-tied, "What do you mean it's easy to change the name."

"Didn't you say that?" You Jingjing looked at him in surprise, with a bit of shyness.The buddies took the time to observe his reaction.

He remembered it all at once, and broke out in a cold sweat, "My God, change it back!"

Seeing his serious face, You Jingjing felt sad and wronged at the same time: "Is changing the name a joke? I entrusted my father to find the relationship..." As she spoke, tears flowed down her face. He didn't show any signs of comfort, he just felt extremely embarrassed, covered his face and ran out.

He was at a loss, not knowing what other heinous things he did last night, facing his buddies' condemning eyes, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase out of the cafeteria.

You Jingjing was sobbing under a ginkgo tree, and the classmates and teachers who came and went looked sideways.

"I'm a scumbag, I'm sorry," he admitted frankly, "Last night, I was actually..."

"Are you drunk because of Xiao Min?" You Jingjing raised her head and looked at him with tears on her face.

He froze, thinking how do you know.

"You called her name all night."

He stood under the tree blankly. He didn't know when You Jingjing left or when his buddies left. His head hurt violently again, but it was not as painful as the pain in his heart. He finally understood what it means to have endless hatred During this period, what does it mean to be in love with each other, it is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes.

You Jingjing thought about it, since he had someone else in his heart, she couldn't force it, she asked his fellow villager about this Xiao Min, regardless of appearance, the two had been classmates for six years, they were real childhood sweethearts.

She is bright and cheerful by nature and can afford to let it go. Anyway, the new name is just the old name, and the household registration is still You Jingjing, so I won't mention it again. They are still good brothers who play together.Seeing that the winter vacation was about to begin, everyone planned to travel to Taiwan. Zhou Chunhong called to say that her grandma was suddenly critically ill and wanted to see her grandson.

Zhu Chaoyang put down the phone and bought the only first-class ticket to Guangzhou in six hours.

A cold caused heart failure, and the 76-year-old was immediately admitted to the ICU. When Zhu Chaoyang arrived at the hospital, he only had time to hold his grandma's hand and listen to her say a word.

"When will you bring your granddaughter-in-law back?"

Zhu Chaoyang cried and nodded, saying that it would be soon, and then he watched her pass away with a smile on his face.

Those who leave, you never know what kind of void you leave behind.

Zhu Chaoyang held the urn and followed his mother into the Dahe Cemetery. The sound of soil being sprinkled on the grave almost made him lose his composure. This was not the first time he faced death, but the word "death" was just a word to him before. The process, now he can really feel the result.

That's because the person he loves is buried here.

After his parents divorced, he once complained about his grandma, thinking she was unfair, but now that he thinks about it, grandma treated him really well.

He also realized for the first time what kind of torture Xiao Min was going through every day after Ye Jun left.

——What reason do you have to pester her?Do you deserve it?A voice repeated in his heart countless times, you made a study plan for her, and used her competitiveness to encourage her to continue her studies... You are actually still controlling her, just in a different way.

I'm not, he stammered, I just want her to realize her dreams.

—what does she want?

She...he was speechless for a moment.

——You are very selfish, you don’t give her any sweetness, you just hang a carrot in front of your eyes and let her run hard until she can’t run anymore, she has no choice, and falls into your pocket exhausted and becomes your prey... …you know her so well that you succeed every time.

Then you tell me, what should I do!

——Didn't you say you want to let go?

Let go...he's at a loss, let go?Yes, I said it, but... withdraw from her world from now on, and have nothing to do with her?Can't hear her voice, or even hear her name mentioned?

——Zhu Chaoyang, you always have selfishness.

The voice sneered away.

Zhou Chunhong pushed open the door, saw her son sitting alone in the dark, walked up silently, and handed him a cup of warm milk.

He held it in his hand. In those hard-pressed days, it was the only nutrition a mother could afford, and it was also the simplest testimony of maternal love.

In the darkness, the fuzzy outline of her son coincided with her appearance as a child, and she seemed to have returned to the day of her divorce. The eight-year-old Zhu Chaoyang was also sitting in the darkness alone for a long time.

I can't come back, father, grandma, and the peaceful and happy days and the clean self.

"Elders want their children to get married and start a career as soon as possible," Zhou Chunhong said softly, "But when you grow up, you can make up your own mind, and your mother will always support you."

The eyes of mother and child met in the dark, Zhu Chaoyang nodded, raised the cup and drank it down, then passed the empty cup over, "Thank you, Mom."

"Son," Zhou Chunhong's voice was tired and sober, "You will always be my mother's pride."
