Don't ask about the future

Yan Wenqing arrived at the funeral home before dawn.

She stayed in the mourning hall for a short time, if there were not three more incense sticks smoking green smoke in the incense table, Yi Yun recalled afterwards, she would have thought that the figure in front of her was an illusion caused by some kind of psychological trouble.

When Yan Wenqing walked into the mourning hall, all the guards fell asleep, and only Yi Yun and Gao Shengxi's mother were still awake.The old man wept silently by himself, while Yi Yun stood aside in a daze.With Mama Gao on the side, she couldn't feel sleepy at all.

Yan Wenqing didn't look at Yi Yun when he came in, and didn't say a word.He walked to the incense table without looking sideways, offered incense, stood quietly in front of the portrait for a while, turned and left without saying a word.She walked very lightly, without sound, as if she was afraid of disturbing someone who was immersed in grief.

Seeing her leave, Yi Yun got up and followed her out obsessively, and the two of them never saw each other during the whole process.One after the other, they walked on the quiet and empty tree-lined avenue. In the isolated picture, the silent two listened to the endless chirping of birds and insects.If the venue and mood were changed, the summer morning should have been a beautiful scenery.No one thought that they would see each other so soon for such a reason.Even if you want to say something, you can't open it.Like white porridge that has been cooked and left to stand, the inside is thick and hot, and it is anxious, but the surface is smooth and textureless.

The morning wind swept over the small white flowers on the side of the road, stained with dew, and moistened the air.Sunlight poured out from behind the clouds, and the street lamps along the path went out one by one, a new day was waking up.The two people on the road stopped at the same time, looking into the distance, the sun rose from the horizon.When Yi Yun turned his head again, Yan Wenqing had already drifted away step by step.Watching her walk away and get into the black car parked outside the gate of the funeral parlor, Yi Yun turned back.

In the morning, Ke Wei came.Compared with before, she spoke less and looked more lonely.There was unconcealable pain in her pale face, and she looked really sad.Yi Yun knew that Ke Wei admired Gao Shengxi, but she didn't expect that her feelings for Gao Shengxi were enough to make her cry.

Before the funeral, Chen Hong sent a message to Yi Yun. It was really inconvenient for her to come to this kind of place while she was in confinement.Yi Yun expressed her understanding and asked her to tell Qin Yimo that she didn't have to come over:

"Now that there are two children, he can help you at home and give you a hand."

Chen Hong only replied to Yi Yun with a sighing expression. Yi Yun looked at the emoji on the screen that expressed the meaning of "crazy", and felt that there was no need for him to reply, so the two stopped talking.

The mourning hall was full of people who came to express their condolences, and Yi Yun once again felt the influence of Gao Shengxi.The funeral was presided over by Li Enze, and the gloomy and trivial conversation in the small space suddenly became silent when the microphone sounded.The originally depressing air was dyed with a soothing temperature by the mature and vigorous bass with a slow and powerful tone.

Before writing the eulogy, Li Enze came to Yi Yun for advice.In an instant, one person and one dog, Gao Shengxi and Yuanyuan appeared in front of Yi Yun's eyes, as if they had returned to the scene when they first met.

A girl with pigtails, holding a dying milk dog in her arms, stood in the warm winter sun, trembling slightly because of fear.There were tears on the little girl's face, and she looked at Yi Yun with expectant eyes, with a determined and gentle light shining in her eyes.The milky white skinny dog ​​was whimpering and chirping in the arms of the little girl.Yi Yun's heart was warmed, melted and firmed by that picture.

Before this scene, Yi Yun hadn't told anyone, it was the source of strength and support deep in her heart.But today, people are going to send away this girl who changed the trajectory of Yi Yun's life.In a single thought, she even changed the fate of countless abandoned souls in this country.She left and was remembered as the right-hand man of a wealthy businessman.From now on, Yi Yun hopes that when people think of her again, it will be as a benevolent angel.

When a human's physical life ends, she is not actually dead.As long as there are people in the world who love her and remember her, she will continue to live in people's hearts in the form of memories.She is truly dead when the last person who remembers her dies.Therefore, a funeral is a ceremony in which a person's life can be renewed.If she is great enough, she may not even be forgotten for life after life.In Yi Yun's heart, Gao Shengxi is worthy of eternal life.

The magnetic bass quietly told everyone the story of the short life of this girl named Gao Shengxi.Most of the people present have never heard the full version of this story, and their impression of Gao Shengxi only stays in decent professional etiquette and wise business methods.People never expected that this young girl would inspire and create such an extraordinary career in her limited life.

"All greatness comes from extraordinaryness, and all extraordinaryness comes from perfection. We love you forever, Gao Shengxi."

The words were closed, and the tears of all the people present were shed.

Yi Yun's gaze was firmly grasped by the person in the black and white photo. She really wanted to hug her again, hold her hand, touch her face, and tell her seriously: Gao Shengxi, you are the one in my life. The most important encounter, I love you so much!

Everything came to an abrupt end, and Yi Yun didn't have any chance to say what was in her heart, the person she was most attached to.For a moment, Yi Yun even wanted to take out his mobile phone and call Gao Shengxi to tell her the terrible news.Looking at the headshot with a clear smile on the phone screen, Yi Yun realized that Gao Shengxi was the one she had lost!

It's so funny, how could he do such a stupid act... Yi Yun leaned against the corner of the wall and squatted down on the ground weightlessly.With her arms wrapped around her knees, the pain in her heart made her unable to shed tears and gasp for breath.

"Director Yi..." A hand was lightly clasped on Yi Yun's shoulder, with a gentle but trembling tone, "I'm leaving."

Yi Yun looked up at the face tortured by pain, and nodded blankly.The brain loses its judgment due to lack of oxygen. The three words "I'm sorry" made Yi Yun feel confused, she couldn't understand what this miserable face wanted to express to her, and only left a staggered back in her memory.

The farewell ceremony was over, and Yi Yun did not participate in the subsequent process.After the body was cremated, Gao Shengxi's mother walked out of the building of the funeral home holding a small square rosewood box.Yi Yun looked at the small black box. There was a small photo frame on the front, and a square photo was embedded in it.This photo was selected by Yi Yun and handed over to the staff.

That photo was taken before Gao Shengxi entered university and left home, and Yi Yun accompanied her to a professional photo studio to take photos for her university life.In addition, the two of them also took a set of beautiful artistic photos that day, which was a coming-of-age gift from Yi Yun to Gao Shengxi.

"Sister Yun, which format should I choose for the ID photo?"

"Hmm..." Yi Yun looked Gao Shengxi up and down. She was a pure girl with no impurities in her temperament. "A white cotton dress with a blue background is very good."

"Okay, I'll be happy if you like it. I'll listen to you."

"Silly boy."

Yi Yun fondled Gao Shengxi's head.

"Sister has good skin, is tall, and has a sweet smile; my sister is handsome, with excellent facial contours. Even if the two of you don't wear heavy makeup, the results are very good! I have to say, today is for you two This group of photos I took is the most satisfying set of works I have produced recently."

After hearing the photographer's words, Yi Yun proudly stretched out his arms to hug the girl who had been by her side since puberty, feeling a sense of pride in his heart that "there is a young girl in my family".

"Sisters love each other so much, I'm so envious! You are so lucky to have such a good sister, little sister!"

Yi Yun didn't expect that so many details of the day when the photo was taken were still engraved in her memory.

I dare not look at that smiling person again, and the poor mother who lost her child.The guilt towards Gao Mama is destined to become the heaviest cross on Yi Yun's back in this life.He raised his hand to caress his chest, trying to suppress the stinging pain in his heart.

Earlier, the insurance company sent Yi Yun's car maintenance records to her and Li Enze.It is clearly written in black and white: Yi Yun's car is in good condition and all parts are undamaged.

The car has only been maintained for two months, and it has not been driven to any areas with dangerous road conditions, nor has it been lent to other people for use. How could there be a problem of brake failure suddenly?Yi Yun remembered the episode of the Wrangler being scribbled on the day he had a meeting with Pei Beier.Later, she asked people from the base to help her drive to Tianshui County for cleaning, and Gao Shengxi took it back.After telling Li Enze the details, he immediately called and sent someone to investigate the car wash.While waiting for the feedback of the investigation results, the two decided not to convey this part of the information to Mama Gao for the time being.

The accident was not a traffic accident caused by the driver's operation error, and this conclusion has basically been confirmed.The extended meaning of the judgment not only did not frighten Yi Yun, but made her finally wake up after a series of events.

This is the portrayal of involuntary life, no matter how much Yi Yun hates it, it can't change the fact.And reality has used such an extreme way to force her to face the truth.If Yi Yun had faced up to his inescapable fate from the very beginning, perhaps things would not have developed so badly.What you want, you can't get.Those who want to stay are taken away.Like an ostrich, burying your head in the sand, deceiving yourself and others, and exposing your most vulnerable parts to be slaughtered is no wonder.

"Gao Shengxi is your patron saint." Li Enze said to Yi Yun, "The first time, she used her faith to bring you back to the right path. The second time, she used her life to get yours." For the rest of your life. Since you are not dead, just live on. Get up, your life is no longer your own alone."

Yi Yun understands this truth, and at the same time, she knows how to kill for life, Gao Shengxi cannot die for Yi Yun in vain.Yi Yun wanted to send the murderer to hell with his own hands.
