C86 A Slight Redness
C86 A Slight Redness
When they arrived at Hai Zhu's house, Hai Zhu's parents were not there. Only the two siblings, Hai Zhu and Haifeng, were at home.
"Where's Uncle and Auntie?" I asked Haifeng.
"I went to my grandparents' home in the countryside. Zhu and I were the only two in the house." Haifeng wrapped his apron around his neck and rubbed his hands, "Look, buddy, my cooking skills, Fried Rice Cake, and the typical Ningzhou Herbal Tea! I personally cooked it for you today, do you have any face? Not today, you drank too much last night, just to eat! Come — man, sit down! "Zhu, I'll go get some chopsticks for you, Brother Yi."
Zhu agreed sweetly. She brought me a bowl of Fried Rice Cake with both hands and looked at me with her fiery eyes, "Brother Yi, eat it, try out my brother's cooking skills. Unfortunately, my cooking skills aren't up to standard, if possible, I'll make it for you myself —"
"Thank you, Zhu!" Not daring to meet Zhu's eyes, I quickly took it.
"Zhu, don't worry about it. You still have a chance in the future. As long as you learn how to cook well, you won't even have a chance to cook New Year's cake for Brother Yi, right?" Haifeng came over and sat down, winking at Hai Zhu with an ambiguous tone.
Zhu blushed a little and looked at me. She stuck out her tongue, sat beside me and picked up a pair of chopsticks to give me some food.
"Brother Yi, this is our special Ningzhou product, Mud Snail. It's very tasty, come – eat –" Zhu busily called out to me.
"What's going on?" Sitting across from Zhu and me, Haifeng glared at Hai Zhu and said, "Zhu, the Brother Yi that you've been thinking about day and night is here. He only cares about Brother Yi and doesn't have a brother like you in his eyes anymore?"
"Alright, my dear brother, your sister will also serve you food!" Hai Zhu was unable to contain her joy as she gave food to Haifeng.
The first meal of the new year, I ate with the two siblings at Haifeng's house. This meal was the one I ate the most since I left Ningzhou, not only because of the Fried Rice Cake, but also because of my brother Haifeng.
The air stewardess' unique noble and refined amiable temperament and Hai Zhu's special warmth to me warmed my heart. Unknowingly, I felt a little regretful. If I had known Hai Zhu, it would have been great, but it wouldn't have been such a tragedy that pained me to the core.
Even though I knew that she had already followed someone else, at the same time, I was also thinking about Floating Dream and the Qiu Tong in reality. Although Qiu Tong was destined to be impossible for me and her, the emotions in the mental virtual world made me deeply entangled.
Also, clouds flashed in my mind, clouds that had had that relationship with me, clouds that had been touched by me in a special part of my body, and from the perspective of a human conscience, should I be responsible for the clouds?
After dinner, Hai Zhu said goodbye to us and went to the airport. I sat on the sofa in Haifeng's house, lost in my thoughts.
Haifeng sat next to me and offered me a cigarette. I lit it and took two puffs.
"Bro, you drank quite a bit last night. Your alcohol tolerance is still that great." Haifeng said slowly: "What? Have you thought it through? "
I forced a smile and looked at Haifeng: "Have you thought through what?"
"F * ck — what are you pretending for me for, you know!" Haifeng laughed and lightly punched me.
"Bro, we've been friends for so many years, do you see anything that's bothering me?" I asked Haifeng.
"Hur hur, that's good!" Haifeng nodded and said: "Hey, there's a good saying. The best way to forget a relationship is to start another one. Bro, don't you think so? Have you found a girlfriend yet again? "
I didn't answer immediately. I didn't know how to answer Haifeng. To tell the truth, Hai Zhu's beauty had moved me. What kind of man didn't like beautiful, elegant, cultured, and refined girls?
But in my heart, the shadow of her Floating Dream surfaced from time to time. Although she was the air of a virtual world, she was a real existence in reality and the Floating Dream in reality was something I could never reach.
My heart is tangled in a knot...
"Say something, answer me!" Haifeng urged me: "Bro, have you found a girlfriend yet? Hurry and speak, don't let the ladies own it. "
In reality, people are always contradictory. I want to nod my head, but in reality, I shake my head.
"Good, very good, very good!" Haifeng said happily.
"What's good? "What do you mean?" I looked at Haifeng.
"It's not interesting!" I just want you to be my brother-in-law! " Haifeng went straight to the point, "Yi Ke, what do you think about my sister? "I'll make the decision to introduce my sister to you as your girlfriend. The two of you are in a relationship, okay?"
My heart shuddered. I slowly turned my head and looked at Haifeng without saying anything.
"Say something, don't just fart!" Haifeng looked at me expectantly.
I still didn't speak.
"F * ck — did you lie to me just now? Have you gotten a girlfriend recently? " Haifeng's expression changed slightly as he stared into my eyes.
"Did I say I had it?" I looked at Haifeng.
"Then why aren't you talking?" Haifeng said, "Answer me! "Since you don't have a girlfriend, why don't you date Zhu?"
"But I didn't say there wasn't …" I shook my head in annoyance.
"Damn — Yi Ke, what do you mean by this? What exactly do you mean? " Haifeng panicked.
"If you ask me, I don't know either!" I said sullenly.
Haifeng stared at me blankly for a long time, then said: "J-what are you playing for me? A trick? Don't play with me, let me tell you, if you annoy me, I'll kill you! " Saying that, Haifeng reached out his hand as if he was going to pinch my neck.
I let out a sigh and said to Haifeng, "Let me put it this way. Currently, in real life, I don't have a true girlfriend. However, in this illusory spiritual world …"
"Sh * t! I got it!" Haifeng interrupted me and said arbitrarily, "Having no girlfriend in real life is the same as having no girlfriend. As for what kind of illusory spiritual world, it's all just on the spur of the moment, either you're still fantasizing about Dong Xue, or you're having some bullshit online love. It's all illusory, completely empty, just make up for the mental emptiness and boredom, don't take it seriously …" This is alright, after all this time, you brat, I was wondering what was going on with you. "Alright, since that's the case, then we have made a deal. Since you don't want to find other girlfriends, then come find our Zhu."
"This …" I looked at Haifeng: "Why do I feel like this is a command? Can this thing really be forced?"
"Zhu has already admired you for a long time. I used to praise you in front of her whenever I had nothing better to do. She has always had a good impression of you. "Now, it's all up to you. If you think that Zhu is nice and likes dating her, then you guys can talk, I won't force you to accept her, and you can take care of everything else naturally. I understand this logic, and it doesn't matter if you are good or not, it won't affect our relationship."
I looked at Haifeng and pondered.
In my heart, there was Floating Dream, Qiu Tong, Dong Xue, and the clouds. But towards the clouds, I was more of a kinship, a sibling's kinship. Dong Xue seemed to have completely lost her fate and fell into the embrace of someone else.
Qiu Tong, is a goddess that I can never obtain in real life. She belongs to my benefactor and belongs to Lee Shun. I can only have a mental relationship with Floating Dream in that illusory world.
I'm still young. Even though I'm really attached to Floating Dream, I can't possibly forever wallow in that empty world, and can't possibly stay single in reality forever. In the end, I still have to get married.
At present, in reality, Dong Xue, Yun, Qiu Tong, and Hai Zhu, these four women, are all directly or indirectly related to me. From the objective reality of the situation and my true thoughts, I think that I should choose Hai Zhu.
As soon as this thought appeared in my mind, I suddenly felt that I was very despicable. Dong Xue could just ignore it for now, how could I face the clouds? She had already given her body to me, so how could I leave her behind? I had to protect her until she was well again.
How would I be able to face Floating Dream? Even though it's a spiritual relationship in a silent world, she treated me with such love and care. If I really chose Hai Zhu, how would I have the face to see Floating Dream in the computer?
I thought about the clouds and Floating Dream foolishly, but didn't expect that I would let Dong Xue and Qiu Tong down.
The more I thought about it, the more conflicted I became. I finally said to Haifeng, "Haifeng, Zhu is a good girl, so don't worry too much about the matter between me and Zhu. I believe you can say that everything is fate.
Haifeng nodded and said: "Alright, today I'll directly open up this topic, and get straight to the point. From today onwards, you and Zhu will have a good relationship, Zhu often flies to the Hsinghai, so if there's nothing else, she might come to play with you. You have a plan in your heart, to do your duty as a big brother."
I nodded. "Of course, since little sister is here, I'll take care of it!"
While I was talking, I thought of Qiu Tong. Today is the first day of the new year, and she just returned. I wonder if today's work went smoothly? The whole of the new year's paper delivery had begun today, and it was hard to tell if she was dealing with a good situation or a mess.
Thinking about this, I couldn't stay in Haifeng's house anymore, so I hurriedly took my leave and returned to the hotel. I turned on the computer and logged on to QQ, wanting to see if Floating Dream was there.
The Floating Dream is not present. Qiu Tong must have been very busy today and didn't have the time to surf the Internet.
I took out my cell phone to call Qiu Tong, but then I thought, she's so busy, I better not cause any more trouble.
However, I did not know Qiu Tong's condition, but I was restless again.
I thought for a moment, then took out my phone and called Boss Ping.
Boss Ping wasn't on holiday today, he was in the advertising company's office. When he received my call, Boss Ping immediately came over and said: "It's exploded, the Issuing Company exploded today!"
"It exploded?" I was surprised: "Boss Ping, what's wrong? Was it a terrorist attack? How is Boss Qiu? "
