Balance beam

Chapter 37

Jiang Jiang often praised Palin in private, and told his father that Uncle Qian is very powerful, capable and courageous, he is such a kind person with so much money in such a big company, and he never thinks that their family's conditions are poor and the environment is bad.The child's change is very strange, "Dad, that friend of yours is very good, really good." It's nothing to say this once or twice, and it's unavoidable to think about it too many times, but Li Jia is still willing to believe him Really reconciled with Palin.

Qian Peilin felt like his hair was standing on end, Jiang Jiang was always dangling in front of his eyes, with thin arms and legs, leaning on the upper half of his body with a smile on his face, "Uncle Qian drinks tea," "Uncle Qian eats fruit. "Uncle Qian, let me ask you a question." He blinked his ignorant eyes while holding the book, and listened carefully to his explanation.

Palin deliberately refused, and the child's eyebrows and small movements made him look like a little Li Jia, "I can ask your father." Palin couldn't say anything like that, and would always be stunned for a moment, then took the book and studied it carefully.He wasn't narcissistic enough to think that Jiang Jiang had taken a fancy to him, and he wondered if the child had some new tricks.

If a beautiful woman throws herself into her arms, even if she doesn't like it, she will smile smugly, at least satisfying her vanity.Jiang Jiang always admired Li Jia in front of him, Palin couldn't be prouder.

The current situation is too weird.

Jiang Jiang created an ambiguous relationship with Palin, and then one afternoon, when his father seemed to be in a good mood, he told Li Jia, "Dad, I seem to prefer mature men."

While scooping up the ice cream in the bowl with a spoon, Jiang Jiang usually stared at the ancient costume martial arts drama on TV as if nothing had happened, with a calm and composed demeanor. "Dad, do you think there is something wrong with me?"

Li Jia looked at Jiang Jiang in surprise, opened his mouth slightly, and said after a while, "What did you say?"

Of course, Jiang Jiang couldn't bear to cause such a big impact on his father, but the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. Since it is a cancer, it must be removed as soon as possible. No matter what method is used, just get the man out.

Li Jia asked Palin blankly afterwards, "What should I do?" Palin immediately grabbed Li Jia's shoulders, "Believe me, I have no intention of doing anything to your son." After a few glances, it will indeed overlap with Li Jia when he was young. When he talks about things with joy, he is much more lively than Li Jia back then, but no matter how similar he is, no matter how energetic he is, he is his son, just like himself Like my son, how can I explain this feeling so that Li Jia can understand?

Li Jia smiled wryly, "I know, that's not what I'm talking about." Li Jia laughed impatiently, "This child is like his mother." Of course, there was disappointment and heartache in his eyes. It's not like consolation, like perfunctory, as if they could disperse at any time.

After more than ten years of lovesickness, they finally got together because of a brat?Who said not to leave me?Palin was short-tempered for a moment, and discouragement, disappointment, and unwillingness all came to him, thinking that he had to cheer up Li Jia, making him more convinced that there were no difficulties that could not be overcome.

Li Jia was silent for a long time and then smiled, "Will you attack him?" Palin shook his head immediately, a little in disbelief, "Li Jia, how could I." Li Jia smiled, "That's fine. Don't explain, I understand." Palin sighed impatiently, "You, Li Jia, I love you." Li Jia hugged Palin with his backhand, "I love you too."

Palin put his suit jacket on the sofa, "Where's your father?" He put his hands on the sink, and his arms happened to be in the posture of embracing Jiang Jiang from behind. Jiang Jiang turned his head in disgust, and Palin exhaled The breath is spraying on the face, with the smell of tobacco.

Jiang Jiang opened Palin's arm roughly, hid aside and touched his arm with his hand, rubbing off the goose skin all over his body.

Perrin smiled maliciously, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, bent over and moved closer to the stove, took two puffs and exhaled a string of mist, "Isn't this what you hoped for?"

Jiang Jiang rolled his eyes at him, his voice high-pitched, "Grandpa, are you too self-indulgent? Who do you think you are? Even if there is only one dog and one man left in the world, I will choose the former. How is that possible?" Would like you? Really." Jiang Jiang glanced up and down at him with eyes looking at garbage, what he and his father did in the house had a great impact on Jiang Jiang, "I hate you to death, you ruined my father, you If you want to destroy our family, why don't you die?"

Perrin leaned his back against the partition, raised his eyelids, "And then?"

"What then?" Jiang Jiang raised his voice as if to embolden himself, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing, isn't it disgusting for a man to be with a man?" Jiang Jiang's eyes almost forced tears, his voice changed, "You can do whatever you want, you are too selfish."

Palin didn't comfort or explain. He just took out his phone and pressed the OK button.

The method taught by his father-in-law is still effective, no matter how sad the child is, at least he is innocent.He cared more about Li Jia than appeasing the rebellious boy.

When Li Jia went to Palin's hotel to help him with his daily tidying, Palin played the recording, and the two of them sat on the bed and folded clothes, and the other held the computer to check the documents.Jiang Jiang's mournful and aggrieved voice hadn't finished, but Li Jia stopped him, "Pailin, Jiang Jiang hasn't been close to his mother since he was a child. I brought him up, and I'm everything to him."

Palin turned around and took off his glasses, "Li Jia, what are you going to say?"

"Jiang Jiang must be very disappointed. He is my son, and I know him better. I never thought about what will happen between you." Palin suddenly understood that his worries were so superfluous, and he leaned over and touched Li. Jia's face "I only have you," "I know."

He remained calm in front of Jiang Jiang, and even kept his distance deliberately, and the two behind him even hugged and kissed in the corridor, forcing his father to this point. Jiang Jiang became more and more manic while depressed, "Dad, you don't care about me anymore. I'm going home, I'm going to my mother's place."

Jiang Jiang started to pack his luggage, pulled out his travel bag, and threw all his CDs, books, and clothes into it. Li Jia looked at Jiang Jiang sadly, "Jiang Jiang, we need to have a good talk."

"Don't talk." Jiang Jiang kicked Flying Li, turned around and pointed at his father, his eyes were red, "I don't want to tell you anything, and I don't want to hear you say anything." "Jiang Jiang." "Shut up ~~" Jiang Jiang covered his ears with both hands, gasping for breath, holding himself until his face flushed.Dabao hated his father for always being drunk, so he drank a bottle of beer himself and beat his father black-eyed. Although the old man was beaten to death afterwards, everyone including Jiang Jiang said he was confused. Now Jiang Jiang is envious of such a big protector, at least he can do whatever he wants.

"You don't have me in your heart, you are not my father." Once Jiang Jiang burst into tears, he couldn't control it. "You don't need to explain anything, Dad, you have changed your mind. You don't have this family in your heart anymore." Jiang Jiang slapped himself on the chest violently , even if Li Jia refuses to admit it, the fact is like this, Jiang Jiang wailed.

Li Jia did not comfort him with fear and trepidation as before, but lowered his head, "You are an adult, you have to learn to face some things."

"..." Jiang Jiang stopped crying and looked at his father in disbelief.

"I always have to talk to you."

A few hours later, his father left Jiang Jiang's room. Jiang Jiang sat on the bed as if petrified. For the first time, Jiang Jiang realized that his father was really getting farther and farther away from him. Despair came from the depths of his throat, like dry smoke , The eyes are so choking, but I can't cry a drop.

My father cried until his pink eyes seemed to be still in front of him, "Jiang Jiang, you can't leave. Dad can't leave you."

Jiang Jiang buried his face in his hands, yes, his father couldn't do without him, he was connected by blood, if he really ran away from home and ran to his mother, he would take half his life, and only half his life, Because the other half is tied to the man.Jiang Jiang knew that he was no longer the only one for his father, nor was he the most important one in his life, it was so sad.Even if he died, his father would only be in pain, but he would definitely not be in pain until he died.The only position was not so much divided equally by others as replaced by others. Jiang Jiang felt sad for his new realization that his father no longer belonged to him alone.Want to refuse, but can't do anything.

Before, he always thought that this rainy day would pass sooner or later, but everything was defeated by his father's half-begging words, "Jiang Jiang, please, accept him." Jiang Jiang threw himself against the wall and covered himself with the quilt , crying silently.

Miao Ke and Bai Li also have a past, and there is nothing left of that past after years of secular training.However, Bai Li is a nostalgic person, and when he thinks of that person's kindness, he becomes more and more out of control.

Sonia felt depressed, so she had to drag Palin to complain.

Sonia has become a blatant joke in the circle. She went to find Bai Li, and it was Miao Ke who came out. The woman used to be at odds with her, but after tearing her face apart, she never had any contact with her again. She even said to him sincerely, "I know you have a child of Bai Li, Sonia, for your own good, get rid of it."

"I saw the email you sent to Bai Li. He asked me to read it. I didn't make this decision alone. It was the most appropriate way we agreed after discussing together."

Sonia never imagined that it was Bai Li's fault. She called Bai Li, and Bai Li answered it. When she faced his wife, he told her through the phone, "Sonia, you know that you can't ask for it." , you listen to Miao Ke. You were friends in the past, and she won't harm you."

Sonia knew that he was useless, but she didn't know that he was so useless. She knew that he was immature, but she didn't expect him to be so immature.

Palin grabbed the bottle and frowned, "Don't drink any more." He lifted up the half-empty bottle of foreign wine, but Sonia couldn't reach the bottle in his hand, humming and hitting Palin's chest with her fist.

"Sonia, you should talk to your girlfriends about these things. Also, don't you already have that person's child?"

Sonia rested her forehead and swayed against the wall, "Oh, I lied to you that time."

Palin slammed the bottle against the wall. "Can you be serious?"

Sonia smirked, "When did I become dishonest? I was so angry at that time, and you refused to divorce me. When I thought about how despicable I got Songsong, I regretted it to death."

"Really?" Palin was also in a very upset mood. "Since you regret it, then you can just let it go and never see you again."

"Why? We haven't divorced yet. Even if we get divorced, it's still my child. I haven't heard that children belong to the father."

"Because you are an unqualified mother."

"Who said that?"

"You are."

"Qian Peilin~" Sonia stomped her feet on the ground in a drunken frenzy, pointed at his nose and scolded, "You don't want to be a father, you're gay, you don't care about your family."

Palin dragged and dragged Sonia to help her upstairs, and Sonia fell down on the steps to play tricks. Palin was anxious and annoyed, shaking off the sweat from his head, "Sonia, can we not do this?"

"Then what do you want?" the woman murmured.

"Let's break up peacefully!"

"No." A smile appeared on the corner of Sonia's mouth, and she looked at Palin with a lively expression, "Palin, don't leave me."

Perrin was extremely distressed, who would be like them, a couple like black-eyed chickens.He doesn't have Bai Li's avatar technique, and he can't afford to take care of two families by himself, so he can only treat one with all his heart. "no."

"why?"

"Palin, I don't agree to divorce."

"Palin, you don't understand love." Sonia's eyes were shining brightly. She had never received love back from Palin. Others gave ten times the reply. Maybe it was to suit her liking or to fill in the vacancy. She absorbed it like a thirsty earth, and felt radiant and happy all over her body.Can't let go of happiness, why can Palin have someone to support him for a lifetime, but he has to be alone, they are together, how can there be such a big difference.

"Sonia, listen to me, that child won't bring you happiness, get rid of it."

"I don't want to fight, Palin, can you be your son?"

Palin was surprised "Sonya, what are you talking about?"

"It's not time for a divorce yet, Palin, you can't leave me alone to deal with this, I beg you, can you pretend to be his father?"

Perrin shook his head and stood up. "Sonya, I never thought you could be so stupid and selfish."

"After the divorce, Songsong won't be with a mother like you. It's too bad. You'll drive him crazy."

"You even want to take away my son? Qian Peilin, let me tell you, Songsong is mine, and no one can separate us."

"Okay," Palin also vented all the anger he had accumulated recently, "Then let's go to court to see, anyway, you are also the queen of scandal, and you don't mind getting a little more fame."

"Okay, then I will disclose the matter between you and Li Jia."

Perrin squinted down at her. "Dare you?"

"Palin~" Sonia pulled his trouser legs, crying extremely aggrieved, "Palin, didn't you say that whoever bullies me will avenge me, why did you become like this, you are my last support, don't you abandon me."

Palin felt weak all over, "Sonia, I'm not your father. It's not that I can give you whatever you want. I can't afford this green hat."

Sonia was sobbing in a daze. Ren Peilin took her to the bedroom and poured out sleeping pills and milk to feed her. Father, his father was ignored. Every time I called my father recently, it was Aunt Xue who picked her up. She was either resting or out.The woman's voice was extremely cold, "I don't dare to show him the magazines now, Sonia, please restrain yourself, do you need your father to help you clean up this mess?" Hanging up the phone with a snap, seemed so heartless.Sonia rubbed against the sheets, "Palin, help me check Aunt Xue, I can't see my father, there must be something wrong with her." Palin stroked her hair to reassure her, "Okay, don't worry, I'll check. "

Songsong has been very depressed recently. The low air pressure at home made him unwilling to play with the children. He guarded the big writing desk to draw pictures. Perin picked up his son and kissed her face. Father's stubble "Dad, you were away for several weekends, I missed you."

Before Palin decided to bring Songsong to Changxia, the child cried and rolled, "I won't go anywhere, I want mom, I want grandma, I miss grandpa and grandpa."

Palin hugged Songsong tightly in his arms, "Shall we go to see grandma today?" Songsong turned around and happily jumped to the ground, "Great, I'll let them help me change my clothes, oh, go to see grandma Hey, Dad won't be going out today!"

Palin had a fever on his face. Recently, he had indeed neglected Songsong and his parents, and then they all found an unavoidable problem, how to explain to their parents?

He led Songsong to the hospital, and along the way told the children what to say and what to perform when they saw grandma.Loose and confident, "I know, don't worry!"

Palin's mother fell at home, and felt that her health was getting worse and worse, and her days to live were not long.Seeing her grandson dancing the newly-learned ballroom dancing, Palin's mother laughed so hard that she couldn't see her. It would be great if her son could be like this little pistachio. "Palin, we won't follow you forever. You are an adult. No matter what you do, as long as you are happy. Parents are most worried about whether you will be happy. Your father can lie to you for as long as you can. How long!"

Palin was startled, and managed to digest his mother's meaning with great difficulty. He almost cried for his mother's thoughtfulness. He buried his face in the bed sheet of the ward, and his mother's hand inserted into his hair, "Our son, as long as you If you have a good time, mom will be happy."

Perrin was finally about to set the ring on, and the master couldn't help but praise him for his progress.

This is the ring that Palin insisted on making by himself, and he persisted in poking a few diamonds halfway. Townsend teased him whether he was trying to win back the beauty's heart, but Palin laughed and didn't answer.Sitting in front of the operating table, every time I sculpt a surface, I will remember something about that person.In the interlacing of light and shadow, Perrin carved in little by little the past between him and Li Jia, leaving behind a determination as bright as a rock.The man's style, with three diamonds inlaid in the middle, gradually took shape, Palin couldn't help laughing, and after finishing the final processing, he couldn't help but take it out and look at it over and over again, ready to find a chance to give it to Li Jia.This is not a watch that can be returned. It is my person who wears it. It must not be taken off.

After returning home, Palin found Songsong crying alone, "What's wrong with Songsong?" Similarly, in the small bar on the second floor, Palin couldn't bear to break a glass after drinking a glass of wine, "Can you quit drinking?"

Sonia straightened her hair, "Yes, quit, I still have something to tell you." Palin frowned, clutching the building blocks loosely, leaning against the door, "Dad, Mom~"

Perin snatched the wine glass from Sonia's hand and put it aside, "Songsong, don't come here." Songsong took a step forward and stepped on the debris, and his socks were immediately soaked with blood. "Songsong, be obedient. Go downstairs and have someone bandage you up. Dad has something to say to mom." After the interview, the ex-wife died.

Palin frowned and looked at Sonia impatiently, and pressed close to her ear, "Sonia, don't think about others, but also about the child in your womb." Sonia knelt down and cried pitifully, "But all of you Don't want him."

"Perlin, do you think I'm bad and have delayed you for so long? Do I also hope that I will disappear from this world as soon as possible, so that you can live together and fly together, and do whatever you want?"

"How? Why do you think so, Sonia, I love you."

Sonia waved her hands and walked towards the balcony, "Yes, we all know that we love each other just like you love me. We have nothing but each other. There will never be anyone who loves each other like we do."

Palin's heart choked, and he had an extremely ominous premonition. In his eyes, Sonia was no longer gray, but transparent.It seems that if you are not careful, you will float away without a trace.

Palin grabbed Sonia's wrist, and Sonia turned around and hugged Palin's neck, "Palin, say you love me, and say you really love me, which is different from Li Jia's."

"I love you, I really love you."

"Hehe, I'm afraid there is no man in this world who would do this, right? A brother is a husband and wife's love, and a wife is a brother's love."

Because that man was Li Jia, Sonia couldn't get angry no matter what. She seemed to be unable to fight this man in her life, although she would always want to destroy him and both of them.When the three of them were together, they pretended to be drunk and asked Palin to carry it on their backs. When the gentle man comforted him, Sonia covered her eyes and couldn't bear to look back on the past.

Sonia went to see her father in the afternoon, but was blocked by Aunt Xue. The woman sneered coldly, "You only come to beg your father when you have something to do. Don't you know what you did? The upper class is blocking you, you It's a shame to come here, don't embarrass your father anymore, you are shameless, we still want it. Why don't you travel abroad and come back after the wind has passed. "

Sonia kept calling Baili, but no one answered, and then left messages, all kinds of harassing messages, knowing that the number was no longer used, but still talking to herself.

She couldn't go back, her friends stopped talking, her father never saw her again, her husband saw her as an enemy, and her lover ran away.

Palin is tolerant, but he will not be tolerant enough to raise children for others. He did not aim at her stomach like Aunt Xue and say, "Ha, isn't that the crystallization of your love?" With an ultimatum, he would only look at him with pity and beg himself to set him free.

Bai Li’s words echoed in my ears, and it was my wife who stood behind me during the time of suffering, “I used to think that I just needed her, but when I went back habitually after suffering setbacks, I realized that I love her. She can be with her. I share wealth and honor with me, and you can be with me even if you have nothing. But Sonia, you can’t do it. It’s not that you don’t love me, but I can’t bear to let you suffer. You are like a greenhouse. Jiaohua, I can't bear to let you and me suffer from rain and wind. You should have a better man to love you. I don't deserve you. Now I always think back to our beginning, why you fell in love with money Is Palin not me? I can really see now that I really don't have that ability."

Bai Li knew that Sonia must have fought for him and done something, otherwise Palin would not let go, but her mind has changed, they were an accident, and returning to the original track is the right thing to do. "You can have a child if you want. I will do my duty as a father. If Palin can't tolerate him, Miao Ke can accept it."

Sonia trembled all over, "Did she say that?"

Bai Li is extremely confident, "I haven't told her, but she is that kind of person, for sure. You and her friends for many years should know her." Palin is wrong, Bai Li has intentions, but unfortunately it is not on him, After all, she has made others through all kinds of experience. "Sonia, you must have more people to love."

Sonia pushed open the window, stood unsteadily on the window sill, turned her back to Palin, "Palin, I just want to ask you, do you still want to leave?"

Palin was stunned, "Sonia, come here, we can discuss everything."

"Sonia, have you ever thought about Songsong?"

"Come down, let's go to Africa together. We haven't gone on vacation for a long time, haven't we? Also, you haven't made pizza recently. Songsong and I really want to eat it."

Sonia sneered, "Qian Peilin, you are so hypocritical, you clearly want to get rid of me, why do you do that?" She said the last sentence hoarsely, crying very sadly. "I was the one who said I wanted a divorce, and I was the one who didn't want to."

Palin shook his head, "Sonia, don't be impulsive."

"Palin, what should I do?" Sonia opened her arms to Palin.

Palin rushed over to hug her waist, and a second before their body contact, Sonia fell down as if being blown away by the wind.

Palin leaned down with one hand on the window sill, and the man standing in the courtyard looked at him with his mouth wide open, and Palin's eyes shrank suddenly.

The servant's footsteps came, he opened the door, and screamed, "Ah~ I killed someone, please call the police. Call an ambulance."

The surroundings were in chaos, and Palin stared at the man closely. He didn't remember how he got down the stairs, as if his eyes had never left Li Jia, and he seemed to have stepped down in one step. In short, when Palin stood in front of Li Jia, Trembling with tension.

What other people say is unimportant, but the people shouting around misunderstand him.

Palin's knees softened for a moment, and he knelt down and hugged Li Jia's waist. He knew that this man would get used to withdrawing when encountering things. It was like this when he betrayed with Suo's father's check, and he was like this when he fled back to Changxia. I still hope that he I still want his trust by my side, Palin burst into tears, nothing is more important than Li Jia's words, as long as he believes that he is innocent, no matter how many people question him, he can calmly face it.It may be a long lawsuit, it may be a prison sentence, or the company's stock price will plummet overnight, and everything will become less scary. Palin is finally sure that Li Jia will not leave her.

The original ending of the second part ends here, and the rest is a long extra volume, so stay tuned.
