Lin Anan in Qiongyao World

Gu Youlan's mood didn't fluctuate when he mentioned Duan Wanlu, which made him understand that Gu Youlan might really give up this time.

Duan Zhaopei returned without success, and could only watch Duan Wanlu sitting quietly alone.He and Duan Wanlu have been together day and night for 20 years, and his love for her is no less than that of Duan's parents. How can he just watch his sister endure the torment in his heart like this?After much deliberation, he went to the doctor in a hurry, so he decided to try Duan Wanlu's sweetheart, Meng Qiao.

Duan Zhaopei found Meng Qiao's phone number, picked up the phone and dialed it, then hung up immediately, and after a while, picked up the phone again, before he got through, hung up again, and repeated this several times.Duan Zhaopei stayed on the phone for a long time, after thinking and thinking, he still dialed the phone and told Meng Qiao that he was Duan Wanlu's brother and wanted to see him. Although Meng Qiao was angry at Duan Wanlu's attitude towards his mother, he was determined to It's going to be a while to hang out with her, but after all, it's not easy to offend her future brother-in-law, so she agreed, and the two made an appointment to meet in a cafe.

Duan Zhaopei was concerned about Duan Wanlu, hung up the phone, and went straight to the appointed place. At the appointed time, he did not see Meng Qiao. For the sake of his sister, he had to wait patiently, but waited and waited, but still did not see Meng Qiao. arrival.Duan Zhaopei had always been inclined towards Gu Youlan, but this time he saw that Meng Qiao made himself wait for a long time without showing up when they met for the first time. .

As soon as Duan Zhaopei walked to the door, a young man ran up to meet him. Both of them had relatively large strides, and they couldn't hold back their momentum, so they bumped into their arms.Duan Zhaopei didn't meet the person he was waiting for, so he was in a bad mood, but he still remembered the basic manners, so he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Looking up, the young man stared at him angrily, frowned, and said viciously, "You Does this man have eyes when he walks?" As he spoke, he pushed Duan Zhaopei away and looked into the cafe.

This is the first time Duan Zhaopei has seen such an impolite person at such a young age. He opened his mouth and wanted to reply, but seeing that the man seemed to be looking for someone, he changed his mind and asked tentatively, "Are you Mr. Meng?"

Sure enough, the young man turned his head suddenly, with a sullen face, and asked very fast: "Are you Mr. Duan? Wan Lu's brother?"

Duan Zhaopei nodded with a wry smile, looked at the other party calmly, thinking in his heart, what is Wan Lu's vision?Gu Youlan, who is excellent in everything, ignored him, but he just fell in love with such a person who was not even half as good as Youlan.

Meng Qiao relaxed a little, and said, "I'm sorry, I received a temporary assignment from the newspaper office, so I'm late."

Duan Zhaopei said politely: "Work is important, work is important. Why don't we sit down and talk about it?"

"Ok."

The two ordered something, sat down and prepared to talk in detail.

Duan Zhaopei stirred the coffee, hesitating for a while, not knowing how to speak.

Meng Qiao was a little impatient and wanted to urge him, but he was late and kept Duan Wanlu's brother waiting for a long time, feeling guilty, and it was hard to say the urging words.

The two of them just sat there, relatively speechless.

After a while, Duan Zhaopei made up his mind, cleared his throat, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Meng, it was my idea to call you today. Wan Lu needs your help."

Meng Qiao stood up suddenly: "What happened to Wan Lu? What happened?"

Duan Zhaopei hurriedly comforted him: "Don't get excited, don't worry, Wan Lu is fine. That is, there is such a thing, alas, I really can't say it."

"Tell me, I want to know everything about Wan Lu."

"This matter has something to do with Wan Lu's life experience. Wan Lu is actually not my parents' biological daughter..." Duan Zhaopei gritted his teeth and told the whole thing in one breath.

(I am a cloud) Through Gu Youlan ([-])

Duan Zhaopei felt relieved when he said the words, but looked at the expressionless Meng Qiao, and felt uneasy. How will Qiao react to this? Will he sympathize with Wan Lu's unfortunate fate, feel more sorry for Wan Lu, or despise Wan Lu's biological mother, completely deny Wan Lu, and cut off contact with Duan Wan Lu.He stared closely at Meng Qiao, who was opposite him, trying to see something from his expression.

Hearing Duan Zhaopei's narration, Meng Qiao was dumbfounded.Meng Qiao is a journalist, and his working hours are not too short. In fact, he has seen more such things than anyone else. It is not unheard of for him to have a life experience worse than Duan Wanlu's. However, those are all things at work. Now But it was closely related to his own life, he never expected that Duan Wanlu was the illegitimate son of a dancing girl, and an illegitimate son whose father he didn't even know.Thinking of what her mother said, Duan Wanlu's unusually flexible eyeballs, and her personality that does not want to be restrained, maybe the restless factors in Duan Wanlu's blood come from her mother who is a dancer.

Meng Qiao was stunned for a while, and finally opened his mouth, but his tone was difficult: "Well, I really didn't expect that Wan Lu's life experience is so complicated." After speaking, he fell silent, of course he understood that Duan Zhaopei told himself the truth, nothing more than He wanted to let himself accept Wan Lu's background, but he couldn't figure out what he was thinking now. He admitted that he still liked Duan Wan Lu, was attracted by her uninhibitedness, and sympathized with her background. He felt a little pity for Wan Lu, but could he really accept her without any grievances?What's more, he clearly knows how old-fashioned his mother is. She has worked hard to raise him. Does he really want to marry a dancer's daughter as his mother's daughter-in-law?Moreover, the mother and Wan Lu don't get along well, Wan Lu's temper is so violent, if she refuses to restrain herself after marriage, she has to be careful with her everywhere, so that the mother who has been widowed for many years still has to beg for life at the hands of her daughter-in-law, how can she be worthy of her mother? A heart of compassion?

The longer Meng Qiao remained silent, the more uncertain Duan Zhaopei felt. He began to regret that he came to Meng Qiao and told Meng Qiao everything.

Duan Zhaopei pinched the coffee cup and said in a low voice: "Mr. Meng, I think I was being reckless. I hope you can keep what I said today a secret. I don't want Wan Lu to suffer any harm."

Meng Qiao suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Duan Zhaopei, and said, "I understand what you mean, I will never disclose this matter to anyone, please rest assured. I'm afraid I have to go back and think about it, I really can't help it Now give you a definite answer."

When Duan Zhaopei returned home, he saw that Duan Wanlu was still the one who rejected people thousands of miles away, and he was secretly worried, but Gu Youlan was determined not to come, and he was also alienated and indifferent to him. Arrived.

Meng Qiao returned home full of worries, and felt guilty again when he saw his mother still waiting for his return under the lamp.As soon as Meng's mother saw him, she asked anxiously: "Qiaoqiao, what's wrong with you, you came back so late today? You didn't call back to say anything."

"It's okay, Mom, the newspaper office has a temporary task."

Her husband died early, and Meng's mother and son had been dependent on each other for many years. Looking at Meng Qiao's unnatural expression and tone of voice, she didn't know that the son she raised was lying. But she didn't reveal anything: "That's it, mother has made soup, you can drink a bowl before going to bed."

Meng Qiao didn't have the heart to drink soup, so he evaded, "Mom, I'm very tired today, and I want to rest early."

Mother Meng was even more unhappy, but her tone was still calm: "Then you should rest early."

Meng Qiao nodded, turned and went back to his room.

Mother Meng looked at his leaving figure, and then looked at the meals she had carefully prepared on the table. She only felt that her son was born with her, and her heart felt desolate, and all this was caused by that restless woman Duan Wanlu.

After entering the room, without even turning on the light, Meng Qiao fumbled to sit by the bed, staring blankly in the dark.For a while he thought about how pitiful Wan Lu was, for a while he thought about his mother's expectations for him, and for a while he thought about how people would think of him if Wan Lu's life experience was known. Can't move there.

Until the next morning, Meng Qiao didn't come up with any results.Hearing his mother calling him to get up for dinner as usual, Meng Qiao habitually responded, only to realize that he had sat there all night.With stiff hands and feet and unsatisfactory breakfast, Meng Qiao left the house on the pretext of going to work.

Naturally, Meng's mother could see her son's absent-mindedness. Looking at her son's dull eyes, she knew that Meng Qiao hadn't slept all night. Her son, whom she had spoiled for more than 20 years, was unwilling to eat and sleep at night because of a woman. This made her unacceptable. , she scolded Duan Wanlu a thousand times and ten thousand times in her heart, but she didn't say anything, trying to maintain the image of a loving and tolerant mother in front of her son.

Meng Qiao walked out of the house aimlessly, only to find himself walking near the Duan's house, looking at the door of the Duan's house, thinking that Wan Lu might be in the room dejected, waiting for his own redemption, he felt a little desire to rush in to comfort her. Impulsive, Wan Lu couldn't help taking a few steps forward, but when he thought of his mother's sadness, he stopped moving forward and retreated.Just like that, Meng Qiao walked back and forth, the day passed, and Meng Qiao still didn't make a decision.

The day faded away, and the night gradually covered the earth. Meng Qiao looked at Duan Wanlu's room, and the dim light came on. Through the curtains, he could see Duan Wanlu sitting by the window in a daze. I was going crazy, I didn't wake up until the lights went out, Wan Lu fell asleep.He dragged his numb legs back and forth
