follow my heart

Chapter 73

The bright colors on the ring blended into the quiet night, and this ordinary night flickered with turmoil.

Ji Wan smiled unconsciously, and said softly, "Where did it come from?"

"A little bit of magic," Meng Buqing drooped her long eyelashes, took out the ring and carefully put it on her slender white fingertips, "Happy birthday, Your Royal Highness."

"..."

The corners of Ji Wan's lips were raised, trying to say not to bark.But the smile on his face couldn't be hidden at all.

She stared intently at the face that was close at hand.Thinking in my heart, to be able to keep looking at her like this, there is a kind of hot tenderness overflowing from the tip of my heart slowly, slowly...

The next moment, he was gently embraced by the waist.

Meng Buqing's lips are very soft, very soft, there seems to be no conflict between enthusiasm and tenderness.The familiar faint fragrance on the body is intoxicating.

Ji Wan's hand was caressing the back of her head, the ring between her fingers was shining brightly half against the black hair.

Let her kiss herself, and kiss her back eagerly.

Half undressed, the person who came out of the bathroom...

—

On the way back, the brilliant golden light outside the glass window seemed to be illuminating people. Fortunately, there was indoor air conditioning along the way.They don't have much luggage, and they can take the subway directly from the airport to get home conveniently.

Very empty compartment.

Meng Buqing put his hands on Ji Wan's thigh, staring at Ji Wan's face reflected in the smooth glass opposite.The tunnel is very dark, but the car is bright, and the silhouettes are so clear.

"I want to take you to meet my mother, but I think it's enough to call her on the day we go abroad to get the certificate."

Ji Wan paused while she was flipping through the email, turned her head to look at her, and then smiled softly: "Why do you have such a serious expression?"

"I'm thinking about a question." Meng Buqing frowned slightly.

"Ok?"

"I guessed randomly, you don't have to answer. Anyway, don't be angry if you are right or not."

"Appreciate further details."

Meng Buqing opened his mouth, and after deliberating what to say for a long time, he decided to be simple and straightforward:

"Have you severed ties with your family?"

"Why do you think that way?" Ji Wan smiled in surprise, "Because I haven't mentioned my family situation to you at all?"

Meng Buqing nodded.

"It's not a severance of relationship. When my father remarried a few years ago, I went home and had dinner." Ji Wan stuffed the phone back into her pocket, grabbed her hand, and held it for fun. many……"

In this soft and light afternoon, Ji Wan talked about her family affairs for the first time.

Both her parents are teachers.

The father is strict and the mother is rigid.Ji Wan went to school well-behaved since she was a child, and she took the top three exams with trepidation. There was a ruler in the study all the year round, her handwriting was not good, her homework was not correct...everything that failed to meet the high requirements would be beaten.

Later, when she was in junior high school, she changed her choice without telling everyone, and was admitted to a military high school where accommodation was mandatory.It completely disrupted the family's plan to let her be admitted to a key high school, and then her mother retired to accompany her to study.

In a rage, the family refused to pay the tuition.

Unexpectedly, Ji Wan, who was still a minor, insisted on not bowing her head.Relying on borrowing money and working part-time during the holidays, she barely achieved financial independence directly in her high school year.

Now the relationship with the family has become delicate.

A pair of controlling and strict parents accidentally raised their daughter to be too independent and strong.Before it was fledgling, it flew away from their palms with all its strength.

The connection with them is getting weaker and weaker.

Ji Wan's high school volunteers have filled key schools across provinces, and she is ready to apply for student loans.Her parents had no other choice, so they had to change to a soft policy, said a lot of things that made people feel comfortable, and continued to support her.

Ji Wan was still a quasi-high school student, and she had already experienced the dilemma of borrowing money for her tuition everywhere, and she knew early on that she could not rely on her family.And she is now, and she can take responsibility for herself.

Whether it was in college or after graduation, she worked hard to earn money and saved seriously.Holding a high degree of education but working harder than those who have nothing.

Gradually, she has become an outstanding daughter who is worthy of showing off and successfully educated by her parents.

She didn't fall in love until she was 25 years old, and after rejecting everyone's blind date introductions many times-in the eyes of her parents, she turned back to that weird and gloomy person.

Later, my mother became seriously ill and after a major operation, she still needed to take medicine on time to control her condition.Expensive imported medicines cannot be covered by medical insurance, and more than half of Ji Wan's income at that time was used to buy the best medicines for her mother.

Even so, she is still an unfilial daughter in the eyes of her parents.

Ji Wan simply told Meng Buqing: "My father's side is mainly because I pay for my cousin to take care of him and his remarried aunt. I don't go back very often. He lives very well and has no time to talk to me. Cut off any relationship."

Meng Buqing listened quietly.

"After he remarried, he got along very well with that aunt, so his temper is much better than before. If you want, I will take you to dinner during the Chinese New Year..."

—

As long as the distance is not detoured, the subway saves a lot of time than the car.Turn the line a little bit from the middle, and you are almost home.

I have never been to this transfer station before.

Meng Buqing took Ji Wan's hand, walked forward a few steps and felt that something was wrong.The signs posted on the ground are also a bit messy.

A flight attendant in uniform walked up to me.

Meng Buqing leaned forward and opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, where do we go on the fourth line?"

"...to this way."

The boy called Uncle opened his mouth and raised his finger to point in the direction.The young voice made Meng Buqing startled, and then he looked at his face carefully.

I wanted to apologize for calling out the wrong title.After seeing his face clearly, Meng Buqing couldn't help frowning, and the words became: "Liu Zhiyi?"

The person in front of him was silent.

Meng Buqing raised his lips reflexively, and asked with a half-smile, "You didn't point your fingers?"

"No, no... If you don't believe me, ask someone else!"

Liu Zhiyi left this sentence and hurried to another place.The back view looks like he is running away with his tail between his legs.

Meng Buqing came back to his senses and puffed up his face slightly.I can't tell what it feels like.

She had heard from a mutual friend a long time ago that this person went to a junior college, and after graduation, his family entrusted his family to work in the subway.

I often ride the subway but never see it.I thought that the city is so big that it would be impossible to meet by such a coincidence, but today I did.

Ji Wan asked: "Someone you know?"

Meng Buqing picked some truths and said: "My former classmates had some unpleasant troubles, but it's over long ago."

It's the shitty thing about high school.

During the few days when Meng Buqing was bullied by the Internet, this person bragged to his friends that he had slept with Meng Buqing a long time ago.

At that time, Meng Buqing was in the state of a bad girl who pretended to be good on the surface.

Coupled with depression.

In the evening, she called several tall and burly social playmates to tie him up.

Find the dirtiest and smelliest public place nearby.Meng Buqing held his head tightly, pressed his whole face to the ground, and kissed him for half an hour with the dirty bricks soaked in various mixtures.

She pressed it herself.

I remember that the boy asked for leave for a whole month later.

When he came to school again, he would carefully back away when he saw Meng Buqing's shadow.By the way, it cured the problem of randomly speaking yellow accents to girls.

If it were now, Meng Buqing might just scold him in public and end it.

Sometimes, she also feels that she is vicious, so she subconsciously holds back in front of people she cares about, fearing that the other party will find out that she will take revenge. She is a very bad person.Then be hated by the other party.

Like before, she only told Zuo Xiaoyun that she was bad-mouthed by her classmates, but she didn't say that she threw cakes all over the face of that person.

Meng Buqing acts on intuition most of the time.Others always tell her that it is unjust to use violence to control violence, and she feels that this is not bright enough.

She is not as delicate and pitiful as a good person, she is always pretending to be delicate and pitiful.

So she feels like a bad person.

In fact, Meng Buqing didn't know that no matter how she handled the second half of the matter, she couldn't deny the fact that she was a victim in the first half.

What's more, she has the power to fight back the other person, which shows that she is truly kind.

—

Enter the community and walk on the way home.Meng Buqing suddenly asked softly: "You said before that before your mother passed away, you didn't have time to see her for the last time."

"Ah."

"Is it because you refused to get married that your mother was seriously ill and didn't want to tell you?"

"No, her illness is long-term, a chronic disease that can be controlled by taking medicine," Ji Wan replied, "She passed away suddenly, and the doctor said that she died of natural causes. There may be reasons for her illness, or she may just be old."

On the day her mother was critically ill, she immediately rushed to the airport while she was abroad, and it took more than ten hours of flight time to come back.Did not see the last side.

Ji Wan was silent for a while, then suddenly said slowly: "Now, my father probably guessed why I don't want to get married. He told me to work hard to find a partner even if I don't get married."

It's a reserved retreat.

Meng Buqing listened, not knowing what to say.

After a long while, she murmured: "It's a pity..." If she could reconcile earlier, Ji Wan would not be under so much pressure and stay abroad alone all year round.

She didn't have to live so hard in the first half of her life.

Ji Wan didn't speak.

Walking into the corridor, the scorching sun was cut off immediately.

She was thinking, if independence and freedom gave her the chance to fall in love with this little girl, what regrets would there be?
