Sediment rises

Chen Zui's mind went blank for a short while. He took a deep breath while holding the passbook before he dared to open the thin piece of jammed paper.

The first passbook, with a balance of 11 yuan, had a small post-it note written on it, "For Xiaoxu".

The second passbook, with a balance of 8 yuan, also had a small post-it note written on it, "For Xiaoxu".

The third passbook, with a balance of 2 yuan, was pasted with a small post-it note, but it was blank.

Chen Zui couldn't bear it anymore, his vision gradually blurred, first there was a "click", a teardrop fell on the small card, and then the tears gushed out one after another, the tear glands had lost control.

There is one item in the divorce agreement that is to give him spiritual compensation. It turns out that his Xiaoxuan has already secretly prepared together.

What Chen can imagine most about Xiaoxuan is how to devoutly take out three passbooks and carefully write the three words "for Xiaoxu". He didn't think about keeping the one with the least balance for himself, so he left it blank. When Chen needs him the most, he will still write "For Xiaoxu".

His little selection has always been so unreservedly good to him.As for him, he left the injured Xiaoxuan and walked away, mocking Xiaoxuan in a contemptuous tone, "take my money and give me spiritual compensation", he is really stupid and bad.

Chen's most suppressed sobs finally turned into wailing of collapse.

The next day, Chen Zui deliberately went to Lin Congxuan's place a little later, which happened to be the time when Liang Yiwan arrived home.

"Wait for me?" Liang Yiwan was a little surprised.

Chen Zui: "Yes."

The street lights were dim, and Chen Zui came out from the shadows, and handed over a delicately packaged paper box, one side was transparent, and it could be seen that there was a glass inside, which was exactly the glass that Lin Congxuan wanted to repair anyway.He said, "Please help me to vote for Xiaoxuan."

"Fixed?" Liang Yiwan asked, but it was obviously impossible to repair it so seamlessly.

Chen Zui shook his head: "This is a new one."

The pair of starry sky cups are from a Japanese factory, and the manufacturer has closed down. Chen Zuo found some connections before he bought a pair from a collector. Of course, there is nothing to show off. Something that might make him happy.

Liang Yiwan took it: "Why don't you go upstairs and bring it to Xiaoxuan?"

"No, maybe he doesn't want it either." Chen Zui hastily refused.

Only then did Liang Yiwan realize that Chen Zui's eyes were red and swollen, and his overall condition was also very poor, almost like a seriously ill person.

He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you okay?"

Chen Zui was in a daze, staring at the cup in Liang Yiwan's hand and answering irrelevant questions: "A broken cup can't be restored, right?"

Liang Yiwan knew that Chen Zui meant something, and he couldn't bear it. He was a little worried that Chen Zui would get into the horns and destroy himself.

Sighing, Liang Yiwan replied: "Perhaps the glass has never been broken in Xiaoxuan's heart."

Chen Zui raised the corners of his mouth into a stiff smile, but he didn't let it go.

For the next time, he still reported every day, and asked Liang Yiwan and Liang Yijiao to help deliver some things, sometimes it was a handful of daisies, sometimes it was a jigsaw puzzle, and sometimes it was a picture book. Lin Cong's favorite thing in high school.

He also learned how to bake cookies, although the shape looked far from the shape of a lamb, he still had the cheek to take it.

Liang Yiwan would persuade Chen Zui to go upstairs, but he refused.He knew that Lin Congxuan would hide at the window and quietly observe himself downstairs, but he didn't even have the courage to look up. Lin Congxuan's wet, fearful and desperate appearance always appeared in his dreams.

He only dared to move like ants, rebuilding the collapsed castle of trust between Lin Congxuan little by little.

A few days later, Chen, who suffered from chronic insomnia, finally couldn't hold on anymore.He originally wanted to go back to the villa at noon to pick up the cookies that he had just baked in the morning, and send them to Lin Congxuan at night, but when he walked to the entrance, he felt dizzy and fell down.

I don't know how long it took, when there was a hasty knock on the door, Chen's most lost consciousness gradually came together. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the panic on the face of his assistant Jiang Ran.

"Mr. Chen, are you okay?"

Chen Zui rubbed his twitching temples before realizing that he was lying in the porch. He asked blankly, "Why are you here?" His throat hurt like it was stuck together and then torn apart.

Jiang Ran hurriedly helped Chen Zui up: "You said you came back at noon and you never went back, and you didn't attend the meeting in the afternoon. I couldn't contact you so I went to your house to have a look, but I saw you fainted. Here, let's go to the hospital first."

Chen Zui waved his hand, not caring at all about his fainting. He took out his phone and found that it was already [-] o'clock in the evening, and there were dozens of missed calls on the phone.For those with assistants and partners, Liang Yiwan also called him several times.His heart skipped a beat, his first reaction was that something happened to Lin Congxuan.

Chen Zui called Liang Yiwan back immediately, without even realizing that his hands were trembling.

Liang Yiwan picked it up almost as soon as he beeped, his tone a little anxious.

"Where are you? Why don't you answer the phone?"

Chen Zui pinched his throat to relieve the discomfort and concealed his hoarseness. He asked in a trembling voice, "Did something happen to Xiaoxuan?"

Hearing Chen Zui's voice, Liang Yiwan heaved a sigh of relief, and he replied: "You haven't come over today, Xiaoxuan has been waiting for you for dinner and refused to eat, and then came upstairs by herself to wait for you, and has been standing there for two hours No matter how much you persuade me, you won’t go back, what happened to you?”

"No, I'm delayed by something at work, I'll be there right away!"

Chen Zui was in a mixed mood, both worried and a little happy, because he heard Liang Yiwan say that Xiaoxuan was waiting for him.

I was in a hurry along the way, and the original journey of more than an hour arrived in 10 minutes.

Lin Congxuan was standing in front of the unit door under the dim incandescent lamp, pacing back and forth, with his head slightly lowered, rubbing the corners of his clothes with his hands, and uttering some meaningless syllables, while Liang Yiwan and Liang Yijiao were standing guard beside him. with.

Chen most anxiously opened the car door and almost fell down. When he really walked in front of Lin Congxuan, he became timid again. After a few steps away, he called out softly: "Xiaoxuan."

Lin Congxuan turned his head, his expression was dazed at first, and after seeing the person a few steps away with the help of the weak light, the corners of his mouth lifted and showed a little smile, as if he was relieved.But almost instantly, the corners of his mouth sank, his head was buried very low, and he quickly hid behind Liang Yijiao, revealing a pair of timid eyes.

Chen Zui's chest was suffocated, and he clenched his fists tightly, with a surge of sadness in his heart.

It's all his fault that his little election became like this.

Chen Zui secretly vomited the discomfort in his chest, pretended to be very relaxed, and asked, "Have Xiaoxuan eaten?"
