Chapter 10 Chapter 8: Hatred Eyes Watching Him

Zhang Wenbo and his mother Mei Ping are of the same breed.His hypocritical nature defines everything about him.When he kept saying that he loved me, I was so moved.I feel like I'm a fool, I won't trust a man who keeps saying he loves me anymore.When he said he loved me, was he thinking of other women?I knew our relationship was cooling down day by day, and I thought it was because of the birth of the child.I admit that after Zhang Xiaotiao was born, my attention was basically on my son, and I ignored him. I think this kind of neglect is normal, and every woman has the possibility to do so.Zhang Wenbo is not a child, he should be a man who has to take responsibility.At the beginning, I fell in love with him because he has connotations, and he is not as hypocritical as other rich people, and he can talk with eloquence, which makes people's hearts move...Those are all superficial things, until one day, I found out that he has a woman outside Only then did I realize that I had made a huge mistake.

I started to follow him, one day, two days, three days... I finally found out that he and Manli were in a rented house... It turned out that his so-called overtime work, so-called business trips, so-called entertainment... everything was a lie, man When you tell a lie, you don't even blink your eyes. I suspect that lying is a man's nature!How many nights have my fears, my longing for him been meaningless!I was crushed by that woman named Mary. I thought I was still a good woman, and I wasn't quick to debunk him.I hope it can be salvaged.That night, when Zhang Wenbo came home with Manli's body fragrance, he looked exhausted as usual.Zhang Xiaotiao had already slept in another room.He said: "I'm so tired!" Then he pretended to lie down and turned off the light.I reached over and touched his chest.I said: "I want!"

He took my hand away and said, "Stop making trouble, I'm really tired after working overtime all night!" In the usual way, I would believe his words, or feel sorry for him, and let him sleep peacefully.But this night, after listening to his words, I sneered softly: "You can't forget your wife and children even if you work overtime. You are not alone in this world!" Zhang Wenbo stopped talking, he is such a person, No matter what happens, as long as he doesn't want to talk to me, he will keep silent.Can silence shirk all responsibility?I got angry: "Did you really go to work overtime?"

After Zhang Wenbo heard what I said, he said: "Why do you doubt me?" I said, "You can't help being suspicious. Think about it, how long has it been since you had sex with me?" Zhang Wenbo said: "I'm really tired, if you really want it, I can give it to you!" When I heard his words, my heart was going to explode. What did he say?As if I said this to ask him to give me alms!My tears flowed down.I said: "Your tiredness is because of other women?" Zhang Wenbo was completely silent.He doesn't want to talk to me at all.My voice raised: "Tell me, do you have a woman outside?" No matter what I said, Zhang Wenbo was silent!Just then, I heard slight footsteps at the door.I knew that it was that old witch Mei Ping who was eavesdropping on us again. I quickly got out of bed, rushed to the door, and opened it. There was nothing outside the door. I clearly heard footsteps.

I froze for a while, and suddenly heard crying from the next room. That was Zhang Xiaotiao's cry. why is he crying I entered Zhang Xiaotiao's room, and I saw 5-year-old Zhang Xiaotiao sitting on the bed and crying loudly.I hugged him and said, "Son, what's the matter with you? What's the matter with you? Don't cry, don't cry, mom is holding you!" Zhang Xiaotiao pushed me away, he pushed me away hard, he said : "I don't want you, you go away, I don't want you!" I don't know what happened, I really don't know what happened, I just feel that my son Zhang Xiaotiao started from that night, just like his father, away from me...

Zhang Wenbo kept reminding himself to drive carefully and not to be distracted to avoid accidents.After sending Zhang Xiaotiao to school, he drove in the direction of Chiban University.Inexplicably, he remembered the place where he knocked down the old man. Did he take a detour?But it was too far to take a detour, so I had to give up the idea.He had no choice but to drive the car onto Wunan Road. When he passed by the place where he hit someone, the woman's faint voice sounded in his ears again: "A few days ago, I ran into and killed a woman in this place. There was still blood on the ground yesterday, and the heavy rain washed away the blood last night. Ugh--"

At this time, Zhang Wenbo suddenly remembered an incident two months ago.It was a gray and foggy day. He drove back to Chiban from the suburbs because he was going to attend a friend's wedding. He drank alcohol the night before and still had a headache on this foggy morning.When he was passing a village, he found a car parked in front of him surrounded by some people. His first feeling was that there was an accident, so he slowed down his driving speed.Sure enough, it was the car that hit the person.When Zhang Wenbo drove past the accident site carefully, he took a look and saw a middle-aged rural woman lying bloody on the road in front of the car. Her face could not be seen clearly, and an axle could be seen pressing on her stomach. , There were intestines coming out... Zhang Wenbo felt his head buzzing. He felt that the dead woman suddenly stood up, threw herself on his windshield, grabbed the windshield of his car with bloody hands, and opened her mouth hoarsely. His mouth shouted at him: "Help me—" After returning to Chiban, the appearance of that woman kept appearing in his mind, and he still had nightmares at night, dreaming of women throwing themselves on the windshield of his car again and again Grabbing the windshield with bloody hands, he opened his mouth hoarsely and shouted at him: "Help me—"

Thinking of this, Zhang Wenbo was a little out of breath, he quickly parked the car beside the road, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down. He once told this matter to a friend who likes to pretend to be gods and ghosts, and that friend who pretended to be ghosts said to him seriously: "You'd better go to that place to give a gift to the gods, buy some incense, paper money and other things to burn for the dead ghost, so that she doesn't want to die." Around you!" Zhang Wenbo thought it made sense at the time, but later he stopped having that nightmare and forgot about it.Thinking about what happened recently, should it be connected with the dead woman?

Find a time, and I really want to go to that place to send God off.As a university professor, it is unbelievable for him to have such an idea, but it is all forced by life, and he always finds some reasons to balance his mentality in life. At present, it is impossible for Zhang Wenbo to go to that place to send God off, and it is impossible for him to balance his mentality.Take Manli's claim that she plagiarized as an example, it made him very troublesome.He never thought that this woman who had had a close relationship with him would do this.But then again, he was also at a loss. Thinking of what happened at that time, as long as he took that step, maybe everything would change.

There is no free lunch in this world. Whatever you do, you must pay the price. It is only a matter of time.If you want to do something, you must be mentally prepared, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Last night, he met Manli in a bar on Zhuhuan Road. Zhuhuan Road is a bar street in Chiban City, similar to Sanlitun in Beijing.Every night, many people of different identities come here to get drunk, come here to talk about love, come here to drink away their sorrows, come here to hunt for beauty or wait for others to have a drink, come here to pass the time... In the past, Zhang Wenbo and Manli often Enter and exit this street with a strong smell of corruption, excitement, wine, music, noise, eroticism, etc.

Manli likes the place called "Requiem Bar". This bar is relatively quiet and allows them to have a good conversation. The background music of the bar is always soft.Zhang Wenbo arrived before Manli, and when he found a dark corner to sit down and wait for Manli to arrive, he found that this place was their old place. Zhang Wenbo sat there feeling uneasy. He hadn't seen Manli for many years and wondered how she was doing now.He had read some of her articles published in the supplement of "Chiban Evening News", and he could not see any changes in Manli from those articles. Zhang Wenbo was thinking about how to speak the first sentence to Manli. Zhang Wenbo waited for more than 20 minutes before Manli appeared in the bar. She was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans today, looking casual and elegant. Man Li was not as angry or full of resentment as Zhang Wenbo imagined. She sat opposite Zhang Wenbo, smiled faintly and said, "I kept you waiting, Zhang Wenbo." Zhang Wenbo immediately forgot what he had just prepared, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence: "How are you?" Manli said, "What do you think?" Zhang Wenbo didn't know how to answer Manli's rhetorical question. Manli said, "What would you like to drink?" Zhang Wenbo said, "I'll just drink plain water." Manli ordered a glass of "Bloody Mary" foreign wine, then put away the smile on her face, and said to Zhang Wenbo solemnly: "You asked me out, and you can talk if you have anything to say, I only give you 30 minutes !" Zhang Wenbo suddenly felt that he was so clumsy, and his usual wisdom disappeared without a trace.He didn't understand why he became so mentally handicapped in front of this woman.Zhang Wenbo said hesitantly: "The matter of the article..." Manli took a sip of her wine, looked at Zhang Wenbo, and said, "Zhang Wenbo, I want to ask, do you think you plagiarized my article?" Zhang Wenbo's back was cold, and he seemed to be talking to himself: "How could I plagiarize your article? I have never read your article "Lu Xun's Spiritual World" before!" Manli took another sip of wine, she sneered, and the little mole at the corner of her eye twitched: "You really forgot everything, I thought you still remembered everything that happened before, but I didn't expect you to remember everything that happened before. Everything is forgotten, is there a newcomer?" Zhang Wenbo was speechless. Man Li's voice sounded very soft, but there was a sharp edge: "I need to remind you that at that time, after we had sex, we talked about Lu Xun's spiritual world. I raised a lot of opinions. You said my idea was good, and you asked me to write it out. I didn’t expect that we would break up so quickly. I also didn’t expect that my views would become yours in the end! Zhang Wenbo, let me tell you, you have Two options, one is to pay me 200,000 yuan, and the other is to wait to go to court and lose your reputation!" Zhang Wenbo was stunned: "You—" Manli smiled: "Do you think I'm not showing respect now? I want to ask you, I gave you my most precious thing, and I was pregnant with your child. You kept telling me to wait for your divorce , but what I was waiting for was your wife’s fight, which caused me to have a miscarriage! When I was in the most difficult time, I was lying on the hospital bed, hoping that you would come to see me and say a word of comfort, But where are you? Lying in the arms of your shrew wife, begging for mercy!" Zhang Wenbo's whole body became hot again, his lips moved, did he want to justify, repent, or be angry? Manli looked at the watch on her wrist, drank the last sip of "Bloody Mary", stood up, and said to Zhang Wenbo: "I give you ten days, you should think about it carefully, and I will take action after ten days. Cowardly student, by the way, let me remind you, you are already old, look, your white hair has grown, take a look, don't harm the ignorant girl anymore!" Manli turned her head and walked out of the bar. Zhang Wenbo sat there blankly, his head was in a daze, he didn't notice that in another dark corner, there was a pair of venomous eyes watching him, and there was a sneer on the corner of her mouth. Zhang Molin looked very old, and his back was bent.When he went downstairs, Mei Ping was sitting in front of the dresser in her bedroom combing her hair.His heart skipped a beat.He once combed Mei Ping's hair, but now, Mei Ping didn't need him to comb her hair. Although he was still in this family and shared the same pot of food with her, they were strangers, not even the most ordinary friends.The language between them is also getting simpler and simpler. Zhang Molin's heart was immersed in sadness, and he came to the kitchen. Ah Hua is washing the vegetables, Mei Ping is a clean person, she asks Ah Hua to wash the vegetables after buying vegetables every day, and then soak them in clean water. Seeing Zhang Molin coming in, Ah Hua smiled sweetly: "Grandpa Zhang, do you want me to do something?" Zhang Molin didn't speak, he was looking for something in the kitchen.He searched for a while, apparently not finding what he needed. Zhang Molin looked at Ah Hua suspiciously. Ah Hua smiled again and said, "Grandpa Zhang, are you looking for Suan?" Zhang Molin nodded silently, he had nothing to say, he didn't want to talk more and more, if possible, he wouldn't say a word. Ah Hua's eyes were a little flustered: "Grandpa Zhang, I didn't buy garlic today, because Grandma Mei told me not to buy garlic from today on!" Zhang Molin stared at A'hua in silence for a while, as if he wanted to dig out a few heads of garlic from A'hua's beautiful face.Zhang Molin hunched over and left the kitchen. Ah Hua felt a little guilty, she didn't know if it was a mistake not to buy garlic for Zhang Molin, but she couldn't ignore Mei Ping's words. Zhang Molin went upstairs again, his hands trembling a little, it was obvious that his heart was suffering.Zhang Molin stood at the door of Mei Ping's bedroom, staring blankly at Mei Ping combing her hair. Her black hair was still the same, not much changed from when she was young. Zhang Molin's lips were moving, trying to say something but unable to say it. Mei Ping found Zhang Molin standing blankly at the door, she stopped combing her hair, turned around, and said to Zhang Molin with a smile: "Old ghost, do you have anything to say to me?" Zhang Molin's eyes were filled with sticky liquid, and the childlike eyes showed grievance and innocence. Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Mei Ping didn't care about the emotional fluctuations in his eyes at all, and continued to turn around and comb her black hair. Zhang Molin was very sad, and he cursed in his heart: "Old witch!" Zhang Molin walked back to his room, he sat down on the edge of the bed, panting heavily.After stabilizing his emotions a bit, he stood up and went to the closet, opened the closet, stretched his dry hands into the pile of clothes, and finally found a small iron box from the corner of the closet.The iron box is small, but the lock is huge.Zhang Molin put the small iron box on the bed, thinking about something blankly. Then, he rummaged through the desk drawer, found a book, and took out the key from the page.He opened the box tremblingly, and there was a wad of money in the box, all of which were worth ten yuan, and it didn't look like much.There is also a photo in the box, it is a group photo with Mei Ping, both Zhang Molin and Mei Ping are still young in the photo.He took out the money, re-locked the box, and put it back where it was.Holding the money in his hand, Zhang Molin went downstairs and out the door. About an hour later, Zhang Molin returned home with half a sack of things.A'hua wanted to go over to help him carry it, but he pushed him away, and A'hua was pushed staggeringly. She didn't expect Zhang Molin to be so strong. Zhang Molin carried the half-sack of Laixi into his room, and closed the door forcefully. Mei Ping, who was drinking tea in the living room, raised her eyebrows, and said softly, "Crazy!" Zhang Molin bought back half a sack of garlic.He took out a few bulbs of garlic from the sack and peeled them off. The smell of garlic gradually diffused, and Zhang Molin's eyes gradually brightened. At noon that day, Zhang Molin didn't go downstairs to eat.Ah Hua went up to call him twice, but he didn't agree, he just chewed the garlic he bought in his room. Mei Ping said to Ah Hua: "Ah Hua, don't call him anymore, he won't starve to death." Ah Hua panicked intermittently, she felt that Zhang Molin was angry with herself for not eating. Mei Ping saw Ah Hua's thoughts: "Ah Hua, don't blame yourself, it has nothing to do with you if he doesn't eat, this old man is mad at me!" No matter what Mei Ping said, Ah Hua still felt that this matter had something to do with her, and she couldn't shirk her responsibility. Zhang Molin felt refreshed after chewing the garlic. He lay on the bed and planned to take a good nap.He didn't look, but closed his eyes directly. Zhang Molin walked on a flat and snow-white road with a light body.The road was empty and endless, and he couldn't see the end of the road.Zhang Molin walked alone on this road, very silent, there was no sound, and he could not see any living things, not even a bird on a tree.Zhang Molin didn't know where this place was and where this road led to.Zhang Molin kept walking.Suddenly, he saw a black figure standing in the middle of the road ahead, as if waiting for his arrival.Zhang Molin approached the black figure, it was a man in black with his back turned to him.Zhang Molin stopped advancing and stood behind the man.Zhang Molin wanted to ask who he was, but his throat was blocked by a soft thing, and he couldn't speak.After a while, the man suddenly sneered, turned around, and faced Zhang Molin.What Zhang Molin saw was a skull.Zhang Molin felt that his knees were painful and stiff, and his expression became terrified.A gloomy woman's voice came: "Zhang Molin, don't be afraid, I am Mei Ping! You have always loved me, why are you afraid when you see me?" Then, there was a burst of creepy "Chichi" laughter... Zhang Molin woke up, and the sound of the piano came. It was the second movement of "Pathetic". Zhang Molin wanted to get up, but he found that his knees were stiff and painful, and he couldn't move at all.He thought, it's over, the arthritis happened again.Zhang Molin thought, what should I do.He wanted to call his daughter Zhang Wenling, but he couldn't get out of bed. There was no phone in his room, so he had to go to the living room. The piano sound continued, and Zhang Molin cried out in pain. Zhang Molin's painful cry of "Ouch, Ouch" did not immediately stop the sound of the piano, but Ah Hua heard Zhang Molin's call. Ah Hua came to the piano room and said to Mei Ping, "Grandma Mei, it seems something happened to Grandpa Zhang." Mei Ping stood up after she finished playing a piece of music, and said to Ah Hua, "This is an old problem of his. He has arthritis." Ah Hua said anxiously: "Grandma Mei, hurry up and find someone to take him to the hospital, it must be very painful for Grandpa Zhang to call like that." Mei Ping smiled: "Ah Hua, you are such a good girl, you are considerate. Whoever wants to marry you in the future must be lucky." Ah Hua said: "Grandma Mei, stop praising me, think of a way, listen, Grandpa Zhang is getting louder and louder." Mei Ping came to Zhang Molin's door, pushed the door, and found that the door was locked inside, she said to Zhang Molin inside: "Old ghost, stop yelling, it's too noisy." Mei Ping walked downstairs. Ah Hua suddenly felt that Mei Ping was a very cold and heartless person. Ah Hua said to the inside of the door: "Grandpa Zhang, open the door quickly!" Zhang Molin heard Ah Hua's voice, and he said, "Ah Hua, I can't get out of bed, and I can't open the door!" Ah Hua was so anxious that she didn't know what to do. If something serious happened to Zhang Molin, then she would do nothing to help her, and she would never feel at ease for the rest of her life! Ah Hua said to the door: "Grandpa Zhang, are you in severe pain? What should I do?" After a while, Zhang Molin said to Ah Hua: "Ah Hua, quickly call Zhang Wenling and tell him that I am dying, and ask him to come over and die for me!" Ah Hua said, "Grandpa Zhang, I don't know her phone number!" Zhang Molin said, "Call this number, 1155662335." Ah Hua memorized the phone number and dialed it right away.Ah Hua heard Zhang Wenling's impatient voice: "Who is it? What's the matter? Don't you see that I'm busy?" Ah Hua also heard the sound of rubbing mahjong. Ah Hua said: "I am Ah Hua, Grandpa Zhang is dying, he is calling you here!" Zhang Wenling said loudly: "Ah Hua, can you say it again?" Ah Hua said again: "Grandpa Zhang is dying, he asked you to come here!" Zhang Wenling finally understood, she said again: "Who is at home?" Ah Hua knew that she would definitely refuse to ask Mei Ping to come upstairs to answer the phone, so she said, "There is no one else at home, come here quickly, the situation is very critical!" Zhang Wenling hung up the phone. Ahua didn't know if Zhang Wenling would come over immediately, but she still stood outside Zhang Molin's room door and said to Zhang Molin who was still screaming: "Grandpa Zhang, don't worry, she will come here soon .” At this time, A'hua didn't know what Mei Ping was doing downstairs, and A'hua vaguely felt that her situation was getting worse, and her heart seemed to have a hundred rabbits jumping around. If Zhang Wenbo is experiencing an unprecedented plagiarism storm, then Zhang Xiaotiao does not seem to be so safe in school.When Zhang Xiaotiao was eating lunch in the school cafeteria, a headache happened.Zhang Xiaotiao put the lunch box full of food on the head of classmate Zhang Jian. Here's the thing.Zhang Xiaotiao disappeared for a few days and didn't come to school. Not only his family members were worried, but his teachers and classmates were also sweating for him. If he really couldn't be found, the teacher Wu Qian would also be responsible.When he appeared in the classroom with a lazy look, the students seemed to have regained a lost and recovered precious thing, and they were all relieved for him, and everyone came to ask the cold and warm. However, no matter who talks to him, he treats the classmates who care about him with a frosty expression and straight eyes, and he doesn't say a word, like a mute. Teacher Wu Qian was naturally happy to see him come to class, but she still wanted to criticize him.When Teacher Wu Qian criticized him in class, he fell asleep lying on the desk.No matter how much his tablemate Wang Ning pushed him, he couldn't wake up, and he didn't know if he was really asleep or just pretending. Teacher Wu Qian was so angry that she went to pull him up and asked him to stand aside and listen to the lecture. Zhang Xiaotiao stood there obsessively until get out of class was over. After class, Wu Qian said to him: "Student Zhang Xiaotiao, I find that you are very abnormal now. Come to my office after lunch, and I want to have a good talk with you!" At lunch time, Zhang Xiaotiao walked into the dining hall dully alone, and lined up for dinner. In the past, he always had dinner with Wang Ning talking and laughing, and sat down to eat after dinner. Today, Wang Ning asked him to ignore him. Wang Ning is a self-respecting little girl, so she ignored Zhang Xiaotiao. Lining up behind Zhang Xiaotiao was class leader Zhang Jian. While queuing up, Zhang Jian turned his head and muttered to another classmate. Zhang Xiaotiao realized that they were saying that he was sick and that he was the black sheep in the class. Zhang Xiaotiao remained silent. After Zhang Xiaotiao finished eating, he suddenly turned around and slammed the rice bowl on the head of Zhang Jian, who was half a head shorter than him. The sudden attack stunned Zhang Jian, who was covered in food all over his face. The boss recovered after a while and said tearfully, "Zhang Xiaotiao, how could you do this!" At this time, Zhang Xiaotiao had been dragged away by the class teacher Wu Qian. Wang Ning also saw this scene, and she said in a puzzled way: "What's wrong with Zhang Xiaotiao? He wasn't like this before, but for more than half a year, Xiaotiao seemed to be a different person, and he didn't look like this anymore. He loves to play and doesn't like to talk to people anymore, and his temper has become very strange, and he will turn his face when he says he is angry. He used to be a person who loves to laugh, but now I can't hear his laughter, especially today, it seems abnormal abnormal." Wang Ning thought, there must be something wrong with Zhang Xiaotiao.She wants to explore Zhang Xiaotiao's spiritual world, but now she doesn't know how to get close to him! Zhang Xiaotiao stood there with his head down. Wu Qian sat at the desk solemnly, tapped the table with her fingers and said, "Student Zhang Xiaotiao, you are becoming more and more promising. Not only can you leave school, but you have also learned to use the lunch box to decapitate your classmates. Do you know how worried the teachers and classmates were when you disappeared? Everyone took the initiative to organize together after school, and a group of three and five went to find you! But what attitude and behavior do you use to treat the sincerity of your classmates!" Zhang Xiaotiao lowered his head and said nothing, as if what Wu Qian said was just passing through his ears, one ear went in, and the other came out. Wu Qian's voice became severe: "Zhang Xiaotiao, what did you do? You're becoming more and more disorganized and disciplined, and you don't think about it carefully. Who are you worthy of? Are you worthy of your parents, teachers and classmates? Your father is a university professor, and your mother is an editor at a publishing house, and you have completely humiliated them!" At this time, Zhang Xiaotiao raised his head, looked at Wu Qian indifferently, and said coldly: "Mr. Wu, you are wrong, it should be that my face was thrown away by them, they are not worthy to be my father Mother." When Teacher Wu Qian heard this, she felt that the problem was serious. Zhang Xiaotiao's words proved that the problem was not limited to Zhang Xiaotiao alone. Wu Qian's eyes softened, but somehow she told him. The sound of breathing was everywhere, and Li Li was restless all day long.The innocent corpses of puppies always appeared in her mind, and the faces of Zhang Wenbo and Manli in the bar were dyed secret by the dark red lights.Her guess was correct, and sure enough they still had contacts.Li Li's heart felt as uncomfortable as a cat's scratching, and Xiaogoudiandian must have conspired to kill him.That dagger, that sharp dagger is the evidence of killing the little dog. During this day, Li Li went to the street outside many times, stood under the plane tree, and called Gong Ruowang, but his phone was still turned off, and no one answered the phone at home.She scolded Gong Ruowang in her heart, not knowing why Gong Ruowang wanted to play with her and disappear. After following Zhang Wenbo last night, Li Li had a strong idea that she wanted to treat him in the same way as she did, and she wanted to take revenge on Zhang Wenbo in the same way as Zhang Wenbo.The best candidate is Gong Ruowang. This time she finds him, she must have something substantive with him, not just talking and hugging.After she has done all this, she will take even more extreme actions to avenge the puppy! Women never think about the consequences when they go crazy, especially a woman like Li Li who lives in long-term depression.She still didn't call Gong Ruowang until the end of get off work. Where would he go?Is it dead? The mournful Li Li was sitting at the desk, extremely irritable. Li Li's eyes fell on Lao Jin's face opposite. Lao Jin's head seemed to be covered with her red underwear from back then. The old man's face suddenly became vivid. In an instant, a bold and almost crazy idea came to Li Li's heart. When it was time to get off work, Zhang Tingting smiled and greeted them and walked out of the office humming a song. Her little sisters were already waiting there in the corridor, so they went to squeeze the elevator happily, and then went to eat. Nightlife at this age. For Zhang Tingting and the others, Li Li was jealous and envious.How could she not have lived like that! She married Zhang Wenbo as soon as she graduated from university, and she stepped into the grave before she started living. If she had known today, she would not have caused the "red underwear incident" in the first place, and she might have lived an ambiguous life with Lao Jin.When she wakes up, everything is irreversible. Li Li knew that Lao Jin had a habit for many years. After get off work, he always had to work overtime for a while before leaving, unlike Zhang Tingting and the others, who would leave as soon as the hour came. Today, Li Li didn't leave either, which made Lao Jin very strange. He always glanced at Li Li suspiciously. Li Li noticed Lao Jin's suspicious eyes. After everyone on this floor was gone, Li Li pretended to go to the bathroom, and after confirming that there was no one else on this floor, she returned to her office. Li Li smiled and said, "Lao Jin, do you have anything else to do?" Lao Jin pushed his glasses: "Go home after reading the manuscript, why don't you go back?" Li Li said: "There is nothing to do when I go back, just stay for a while." Li Li didn't fully express her thoughts, she wanted to see Lao Jin's reaction again.But Lao Jin didn't speak anymore, and looked down at the manuscript. Maybe they hadn't been alone together for many years. Lao Jin was a little embarrassed, and he pushed his glasses with his hands from time to time to illustrate this point. Because of the silence, the sound from the fluorescent lamp became very loud, just like the ubiquitous breathing that Li Li heard.Li Li guessed that Lao Jin would not take the initiative to talk to her. Since the "red underwear incident" happened, Lao Jin kept Li Li at a respectful distance. Li Li sighed and said: "Lao Jin, in fact, you have been helping me since I came to the publishing house, especially when I first came here, I didn't know anything, you brought me out, I should thank you. " After hearing her words, Lao Jin felt that the sun was coming out from the west.How could this arrogant and bad-tempered woman say such things to herself?Lao Jin couldn't accept it.Lao Jin said: "Where, where, I didn't do anything for you, really nothing!" Li Li's tone became sincere: "Old Jin, after thinking about it, I'm really sorry for you! I think you're going to retire soon, we should communicate, we won't be colleagues anymore, we'll still be friends." Lao Jin raised his head, looked at Li Li, and found that Li Li's eyes were gentle, and the two blushes on her face were heart-warming. Li Li said sincerely: "Old Jin, if you have nothing else to do tonight, let me treat you to a meal, okay?" Lao Jin said softly: "I want to go home, I want to go home." Li Li heard the trembling of Lao Jin's voice and understood that Lao Jin's heart was fluctuating.Li Li was a little excited, and continued to say: "Old Jin, don't push back, give me a chance, please? To be honest, I have a lot of problems, but I have always respected you very much, so just promise me, okay?" ?" Lao Jin didn't say anything, he stood up and began to pack his things. Li Li thought he was ignoring her and packed up his things to leave.Unexpectedly, after Lao Jin picked up his bag, he said to her, "Let's go, I'll treat you tonight!" Li Li burst into ecstasy, it seemed that her bold and crazy idea had already started. They found a Hunan restaurant and went in. Because Lao Jin is from Hunan, Li Li proposed to eat Hunan cuisine, and Lao Jin agreed to her.Lao Jin is very familiar with this Hunan restaurant. In the past, the author invited him or he invited the author, and almost all of them brought here. The boss here is also very familiar with him, and personally brought them to a small box.Once the door of the small box is closed, this is their world. After the dishes were served, Lao Jin asked the waiter to go out. Lao Jin usually likes to drink a few sips, but today he seemed very happy and ordered a bottle of "Xiangquan".Lao Jin opened the wine bottle and poured Li Li a glass. Li Li said, "I don't know how to drink liquor." Lao Jin smiled; "Come and have a drink with me, it's rare for us to be together." She didn't give in either, and exchanged cups with Lao Jin and started drinking. At the beginning, they talked about some things in the club while drinking. Men are always bragged, and Lao Jin is no exception. Others said that every editor-in-chief should listen to him, as if he was the editor-in-chief's father. Li Li watched Lao Jin's face turn red and listened to his bragging.The wine is almost exhausted, and Lao Jin's bullshit is also almost exhausted.Li Li suddenly asked a question: "Lao Jin, did you really like me?" Sparks flickered in Lao Jin's eyes, and it seemed that they would start a prairie fire in his eyes in a short while.Lao Jin sighed and said, "The falling flowers are intentional, but the flowing water is ruthless!" Li Li stretched out her hand, put it on Lao Jin's skinny thigh and said, "Old Jin, tell me, did you really love me?" Lao Jin held the hand she had placed on his lap, and squeezed it aggressively. Li Li's chest rose and fell, and she murmured: "Old Jin, if I give it to you tonight, do you want it?" Lao Jin let go of Li Li's hand. He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and stared at Li Li. Li Li waited for Lao Jin's answer. Lao Jin sighed and said: "Times have changed. Let's drink here for today's wine! However, I have long thought that such a day will come! But I don't need it now. Li Li, let's pay the bill and go home !" Li Li's heart gradually cooled down, she felt that the trap she set up ended up getting into someone else's trap.As soon as he got out of the Hunan Restaurant, Lao Jin took a taxi and hurried away from Li Li. When he got in the car, he glanced at Li Li with a look of panic. Li Li cursed viciously in her heart: "Fuck you, you bastard, you only deserve to smell my underwear!" A gust of wind blew over, carrying the stale air of the city with the sultry heat. Li Li couldn't help thinking of Gong Ruowang again. She started calling Gong Ruowang's cell phone again and again. After calling for a while, Li Li still couldn't find the damned man.Li Li sent a short message to Gong Ruowang with frustration and resentment: "If you ignore me again, you will never see me again. I am dying, really dying!" After sending the message, Li Li asked herself in confusion, "Where should I go?" Zhang Wenbo was lying on the bed with sore body, Li Li hadn't come back yet, and he didn't care where she went.As a wife, she has long since ceased to share her husband's pain and worries.曼丽的事情他想不到更好的办法来解决，儿子在学校的问题又让他担忧，父亲又突然住进了医院，他满脑子都是一些乌七八糟的事情，理不清理还乱。 晚饭后，他去厨房给张小跳拿一杯冰冻果汁时阿花告诉他，张文玲下午把父亲接走送去医院的时候，把母亲梅萍大骂了一顿。 张文波清楚张文玲骂母亲什么，他和张文玲都记得那个冬天的事情，尽管那时他们都还小，那是个物质贫乏的冬天，梅萍在那个冬天特别地馋鱼，她总是在张默林面前说，能够有一碗鱼汤喝多好呀！白天还上着班的张默林每天晚上都去赤板河边钓鱼，一钓就是一个通宵。幸福地喝着鱼汤的梅萍根本就不知道从那时起，张默林的双腿就落下了关节炎的毛病。他病发后疼痛起来的叫唤声令人揪心，可梅萍就是那么一副铁石心肠，后来连一句安慰的话都没有，张默林在梅萍眼中就是一个奴仆，有时甚至连奴仆都不如。 张文波想得头痛。他没有办法入睡。他起床去看了看儿子，儿子已经熟睡了，他想花点心思在儿子身上了，可现在他根本就腾不出工夫来对付儿子。张文波回到了卧室，他吃了两片安眠药，然后倒头便睡！明天送完儿子上学，还得去看看父亲。曼丽的事情该怎么解决？……张文波沉沉地带着许多烦心的问题睡去…… 恍惚中，张文波听到有人在低声私语，他听不清那人说的是什么，但隐隐约约地，听出来那是女人的声音，而且是熟悉的女人的声音，可他不能够准确地判断是谁。 张文波仿佛又听见父亲张默林那句沉重的话：“提防你最亲近的人！” 张文波顿时清醒过来，猛地挺身而起，坐在床上，张文波发现卧室里的灯开着，床边站着一个人，一个女人。那个女人披头散发，脸色苍白，看不清她被散落的头发遮住的眼睛，但可以感觉到她的凝视，可以感觉到一种冰冷的令人窒息的逼仄。 女人穿着那件染满狗血的白棉布睡袍，“叽叽”地笑出了声，笑声像老鼠打架时发出的叫声，尖锐而瘆人。 女人手中握着一把寒光闪闪的匕首，她把匕首慢慢地举过了头顶，停顿在那里。 张文波的心提了起来：“你想干什么？”
