Mr. Jiang's little trick

Because it was a little far away and it was dark, Cheng Mu couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he felt flustered for no reason.

He pulled the curtains hard, turned off the lights, leaving only the warm-colored desk lamp at the head of the bed, and then hugged the quilt and curled up into a ball.

He kept reassuring himself not to think too much, that person definitely didn't come for him, definitely not!

A biting cold wind blew past, and the lights upstairs were also turned off. Jiang Lin snuffed out the cigarette butt, looked in that direction again, opened the door and got into the car.

Under the warmth of the air conditioner, Jiang Lin squeezed his frozen fingers, and his body gradually warmed up. He leaned against the backrest, his expressionless face hidden in the darkness.

Not seeing each other for five years, Jiang Lin was at a loss for what to do with the drastic changes in Cheng Mu's family and personality. He still clearly remembered Yang Bai's appearance back then, a confident and mature woman, what kind of change would break her such a strong heart, leading to the final choice of suicide.

And Xiao Yanjin, although I don't like him, but I can't deny that he is shrewd and thoughtful. How could he kill someone while drunk driving?No matter how you think about it, it's strange.

The fragmentation of a reorganized family must be an important reason for Cheng Mu's personality change, but based on his understanding of Cheng Mu, he is not such a fragile person, why did he become the cautious and cowardly look he is now.

The reasons must be more than what he currently knows.

Jiang Lin felt irritated for no reason. He opened the car window, lit another cigarette, and turned on the interior lights by the way.

The white smoke rings blurred in front of his eyes, Jiang Lin stared at the street lights in the distance, the nicotine made him more conscious, and the bitter taste of tobacco reminded him of the scene when he smoked for the first time.

It was a month after he and Cheng Mu broke up. At his mother's house in the United States, he made a plate of fried meatballs by himself. The style and taste were exactly the same as the ones he had made for Cheng Mu.

The plate of small meatballs was placed alone on the dining table, from the time it was steaming until the oil stains solidified, Jiang Lin never touched it.

According to his original plan, he and Cheng Mu should have finished the college entrance examination and are traveling in a sunny place, planning together how to spend their college life.

Instead of being separated by thousands of mountains and rivers like now, the relationship with the other party can only be summed up in two words - ex.

Why did he break up with Cheng Mu? After all, Jiang Lin still hasn't fully understood why.

He clearly remembered that he and Cheng Mu celebrated their birthday together, and that night Cheng Mu was so enthusiastic that he made him cry while clamoring that he must do the one above next time.

That was the first time they did it and the last time.

From falling in love to breaking up, only a week has passed.

The reason was simply that they had a disagreement when planning their future voluntary reports. Cheng Mu thought that no matter how hard he tried, he could only go to University C, but Jiang Lin was different. With such good grades, he should go to University A, not to leave himself. A closer choice is B, which is much worse than A.

Jiang Lin said that B University is also good, and he didn't choose C University because he thought Cheng Mu would be like this. He felt that he could study hard no matter where he was, and they could meet often if they were close, so there was no need to worry too much.

Cheng Mu disagreed with his idea very much, and the two expressed their views to each other, and the quarrel was not very pleasant, so Cheng Mu angrily left the hut they rented together, and went back to Xiao's house.

At that time, Jiang Lin didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, he just regarded it as the usual small fight between the two of them, they often did this, and making up was as simple as eating and drinking.

And he has already seriously reflected on himself, and decided to listen to Cheng Mu's opinion.He wanted to call Cheng Mu, but he couldn't get through at all, and the message could not be read back.

Later, he saw Cheng Mu posted on Moments, sharing a song "Happy Breakup", and asked everyone not to contact him during the weekend. He wanted to calm down.

Maybe he was dazzled by anger. When he saw Cheng Mu unilaterally announced their breakup, Jiang Lin didn't question the authenticity of the Moments. Instead, he really didn't contact Cheng Mu and didn't go to Xiao's house. look for him.

Jiang Lin is very smart, but in love, who is not a fool who can be controlled by emotions?

After calming down, Jiang Lin decided to have a good talk with Cheng Mu after class on weekdays. As a result, Cheng Mu didn't show up all day on Monday. The teacher said that he had asked for leave. Jiang Lin looked at the empty side, feeling uneasy.

That night, Jiang Lin came to the rental house of the two of them as if telepathically, and as expected, Cheng Mu sat inside and waited for him.

He seemed to be drunk, and when he saw Jiang Lin, he rushed over and hugged him, yelling what to do, and frantically ripped off his clothes.

Jiang Lin thought that he was drunk, and the two of them hadn't spoken clearly yet, so he stopped him and wanted him to sober up first.

But who knew that Cheng Mu didn't listen to the persuasion, and used all his strength to confront him. During the entanglement, Cheng Mu's arm hit Jiang Lin's chin. Cheng Mu pushed it to the ground.

This fall seemed to shatter all of Cheng Mu's madness, he sat on the ground in a daze, Jiang Lin went to help him, but he slapped him away.

He raised his head and looked at Jiang Lin, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of fear and despair.

"He's right, you still despise me..." Tears welled up in Cheng Mu's eyes, and Cheng Mu sobbed and said, "Jiang Lin, you don't want me anymore, Jiang Lin, didn't you say you like me, you can't let me go... ..."

Cheng Mu was crying, Jiang Lin was at a loss, he knelt down to hug him, and was about to comfort him, but Cheng Mu suddenly said, "Jiang Lin, let's break up."

This sentence was like a sharp sword, stabbing Jiang Lin's heart and reason severely. He looked at Cheng Mu and said expressionlessly, "Take this sentence back."

Cheng Mu burst into tears and said stubbornly, "Jiang Lin, let's break up."

At this moment, Jiang Lin's last trace of rationality was completely lost. He held Cheng Mu's shoulder tightly, and said in a cold tone, "Cheng Mu, don't push yourself too hard. I want to have a good talk with you, even though I saw your excessive behavior. I also believe that it was just a mistake you made on the spur of the moment, now you are going to break up with me as soon as you come, Cheng Mu, tell me, what did I do wrong? You want to treat me like this!"

Hearing Jiang Lin's words, Cheng Mu froze in place, his eyes widened, and he murmured, "You really saw it..."

Jiang Lin was talking about circle of friends, but Cheng Mu obviously misunderstood something.

Before Jiang Lin understood the meaning of his words, Cheng Mu pushed Jiang Lin away in panic and got up, staggering towards the door.

At this time, it started to rain outside, Jiang Lin chased them out, but saw a car parked under a street light not far away, Xiao Yanjin stood beside the car with an umbrella, looking in their direction with a smile.

Cheng Mu who ran out froze in place when he saw him, Xiao Yanjin walked over, leaned over and whispered something in his ear, and Cheng Mu obediently was led away by him.

Seeing Cheng Mu drifting away, Jiang Lin in the rain only asked him: "Cheng Mu, are you sure you want to break up with me?"

These words made Cheng Mu pause, but he finally chose to acquiesce and did not look back.

Cheng Mu got into the car, Xiao Yanjin turned around to look at Jiang Lin, with a big smile on his face, and said silently: "You lost."

The car sped away, leaving Jiang Lin alone.

Cheng Mu didn't come to class for the next week, Jiang Lin seemed to have lost his soul, and lived aimlessly for a few days. Finally, he accepted his mother's invitation to go abroad again.

His parents probably knew about the matter between him and Cheng Mu. They didn't ask him why he suddenly agreed to go abroad, they just told him to adjust his mood and adapt to the new school as soon as possible.

That day, Jiang Lin dumped the plate of small meatballs into the trash can, as if saying goodbye to the painful past.

He picked up a pack of cigarettes that his mother had left on the coffee table, took out one, lit it, put it in his mouth, and took a sharp puff, his face was wet with choked tears.

Study and work have paralyzed Jiang Lin's feelings, he no longer thinks about Cheng Mu, no longer thinks about the past, he thinks that time can kill everything, including his nostalgia for Cheng Mu.

But when he saw Cheng Mu again today, Jiang Lin knew that he was wrong, very wrong.

Originally, he didn't intend to agree to the squad leader's party invitation. He still had a lot of things to deal with when he first arrived in a domestic company, and he didn't want to get in touch with people and things from the past.

In the end, the squad leader's sentence "Shi Pei invited Cheng Mu too" made Jiang Lin break the defense directly.

On the way here, he imagined Cheng Mu's current appearance countless times, but he never guessed that he would undergo such an earth-shaking change.

Hearing the squad leader's description of the changes in Cheng Mu's family, it would be a lie to say that he was not shocked. He also checked later, but apart from Yang Bai's death and Xiao Yanjin's case, he couldn't find any other clues.

He knew that he and Cheng Mu had already ended, no matter how he was doing now, he had no right to interfere and should not care about it.

But he couldn't control his heart, his heart told him that he still cared about Cheng Mu.

Very, very caring.

So he struggled all afternoon, and finally asked the squad leader for Shi Pei's contact information, and called her to ask about Cheng Mu.

Shi Pei on the other end of the phone seemed to be about to cry, but he refused to say more to him, just gave him Cheng Mu's address, and finally left a sentence: "Some things can only be told by Cheng Mu himself."

He hung up the phone and drove to Cheng Mu downstairs, but after waiting for several hours, he still didn't dare to go up.

What reason and identity did he come to find Cheng Mu? Jiang Lin couldn't tell; did Cheng Mu want to see him, and what were some things?Jiang Lin couldn't tell.

He stood at one end of the window paper, looking at the looming figure of Cheng Mu at the head, but he didn't dare to pierce it easily.

He couldn't take this step.

Soon it was two o'clock in the morning, Jiang Lin threw the burnt cigarette butts into the trash can, turned his head and glanced in the direction of Cheng Mu's house, finally sighed, and drove away.
