241 Chapter 13. Marionette
When the mood is low, time seems to be set to slow down.
Since leaving the coffee shop that day, Xu Yiyi hasn't been there for a long time. It's just a holiday, but Xu Yiyi feels as if a century has passed.
Walking in front of the coffee shop again, the person who occupied all her sights had long since disappeared from the familiar position.
Xu Yiyi thought she didn't care anymore and figured it out, but her heart still hurts.
It turns out that not all problems can be handed over to time.
It turns out that parting can really happen every minute and every second.
It turned out that she and Xie Nan just met by chance and chatted speculatively... Strangers.
The white head is as new, and the tipped cover is as old.
Xu only thought that she would never meet the next Xie Nan again.
Unknowingly, Xu Yi walked to the swing in front of the park.
Seeing the slightly shaking swing in front of him, Xu Yi thought that she was with Xie Nan the last time she came here.
At that time, Xie Nan pushed her behind her, those gentle and strong hands pushed her forward, upward, toward hope...
Xu Yi stood for a while, and finally sat on the swing, swaying gently every now and then.
Under the harsh winter, the fallen leaves and branches have already returned to the dust, but the sporadic cuckoos on the withered trunks make it all the more desolate.
At this time, as if feeling something, Xu Yi suddenly raised his head, and saw a tall figure walking towards her slowly but firmly.
It's Xie Nan.
With just one glance, Xu Yiyi's steadfastness for so long was shattered, and the excuse she was looking for so hard was defeated.
Sure enough, she still likes him very much.
Looking at Xie Nan walking towards her, Xu Yi suddenly remembered a poem in the Book of Songs.
Prepare and pay, Samsung is in the evening, see this good , Zixi, what a beloved man!
Take precautions, and Samsung is in the and Hexi, see this , Zixi, why did you meet so much!
Be prepared for Chu Chu, and Samsung is at and Hexi, see this charming Xi Zi Xi, who is so charming!
What day is it today, let her meet such a brilliant and beautiful person, what should she do with him?
Such a terrible self, how could he meet this man in front of him.
At this moment, Xu Yi realized very clearly how much she liked Xie Nan, much more than she liked.
I really, really like this man in front of liking that wants to tell everything about oneself, the liking that wants to be with him day and night for the rest of his life, the liking that wants to be vigorous with it, and the liking that is plain and light.
Want to, immediately ran over to hug his favorite.
But Xu Yi didn't do anything, just watched him quietly, watching him walk in step by step, watching him come for himself.
Xu Yiyi tried to see a trace of haggardness from Xie Nan's face, which proved that he was also Xie Nan still had the familiar look of calmness, as if the past that made her sad and regretful was insignificant and not worth mentioning to him.
Xie Nan sat on the swing beside Xu Yi, his suit and swing were incompatible, but Xu Yi couldn't laugh.
The two just sat there quietly, just like in the coffee shop that day.
Finally, Xu Yi opened his mouth.
"I've always listened to your stories, so let's listen to my stories today."
"it is good."
Xie Nan still seemed to be responsive to Xu Yi's request, but Xu Yi understood that this had nothing to do with love.
The two seem to have returned to the original mode of getting along, one telling stories and the other listening to this time, Xu Yi was the one who told the story, and Xie Nan was the one who listened to the story.
"A long time ago, there was a very good ballet dancer. By chance, she met a cellist. The two people with similar interests and equal strengths soon got together. They are golden boys and girls in the eyes of everyone. , the love between the two has become an enviable example..."
Speaking of this, Xu tightened his grip on the rope, "In the second year after marriage, the beautiful dancer conceived a baby. She thought it would be the crystallization of happiness that she gave up many opportunities in exchange for. , so I dialed my lover's phone with full of happiness, eager to share her joy. Sure enough, the lover on the other end of the phone laughed excitedly, saying that he would come to pick her up immediately..."
Although Xu Yiyi's voice was very calm, Xie Nan clearly felt Xu Yiyi's sadness.
"But when she was sitting happily on the bench in the hospital waiting for her lover, she saw her lover who was pushed in with blood all over her body. She always thought she was lucky, but this time, luck did not come, A car accident took away her lover and her smile..."
Xu Yiyi took a deep breath, calmed down and continued: "Many people persuaded her that you will meet good people when you are still young, don't let the child delay you, get rid of the child and start a new life. Many people comforted her She said that she must cheer up, and live well even for the child in her belly..."
Xie Nan's eyes were full of distress, he wanted to hug Xu Yiyi, he wanted to tell her, don't be afraid of him, but now he seemed abrupt to comfort her.
"She hated her phone for ruining her lover's life, hated this sudden life, and even more hated that everyone was concerned about this unborn child, but no one really felt sorry for her lover's departure."
The harsh winter wind blew on Xu Yiyi's face like a knife, causing her tears to blur.
"But when she lay down on the operating table, she hesitated. The person she loves has already left, and this child is the last gift he left for herself. She doesn't want to just throw it away..."
The corner of Xu Yi's mouth curled into a sarcastic smile, "In this way, she left the familiar city, gave birth to this child silently, and started a new life. She let this child learn cello like his father, Practicing dancing like her, learning guqin calligraphy and painting like the pastoral life they had longed for, let her live the way she expected, a sensible doll."
This is the first time Xu Yi told this story, her story.
She was the child in the story, the child who lived as a marionette.
Telling all this frankly is far less sad than Xu Yiyi imagined, neither heartbreaking nor hysterical.
At least, it looks very peaceful.
Xu Yi thought that maybe it was because the audience was Xie Nan that she broke up and reassembled her past without any scruples.
Accept all the embarrassment and darkness frankly.
After the story was told, Xu Yi felt a lot more she knew all this, she has always lived on thin ice, well-behaved and sensible, blindly suppressing herself to be an obedient child.
Just so that my mother can smile to herself once.
