The voice that finally penetrated that shell and penetrated into the depths of his soul came from his mother.
He was awakened like a long-sleeping person, and instantly returned to reality from an illusory situation. All the sounds, pictures, temperatures, and perceptions around him were drowned in an instant like a rising tide.
He opened his eyes wide and looked at the tearful face in front of him. Just the act of opening his eyes seemed to consume a lot of his energy.
"Son..." Feng Yuehua kept crying.
Wen Xiaohui opened his mouth and made a small cat-like voice: "...Mom?"
Feng Yuehua's mood fluctuated even more intensely in an instant, she grabbed Wen Xiaohui's sleeve tightly, her eyes hurt and angry.
Changmeng woke up, Wen Xiaohui asked awkwardly: "Mom, where is Luo Yi?"
Feng Yuehua covered her lips, tears streaming down her face.
"Where's Luo Yi?" Wen Xiaohui asked again with red eyes.
Feng Yuehua shook his head.
Wen Xiaohui raised his weak hand, covered his eyes, and whispered "Where's Luo Yi?", not sure if he was asking or asking himself.
Feng Yuehua stroked his hair, feeling so heartbroken that she didn't know what to say. The only time in her life she felt helpless to despair. The first time was facing her husband's terminal illness, and the second time was now. .
She hugged Wen Xiaohui lightly, and the hand that gently caressed his hair also strengthened, as if the comfort could also be conveyed into her heart more forcefully, Wen Xiaohui hugged her back sideways, the choked sobs that were suppressed were gradually released, He wept bitterly, breaking the shell of nothingness, like a reborn child, fragile and defenseless, he finally returned to this world, this world without Luo Yi.
The liver and intestines are broken.
After Feng Yuehua appeared, Wen Xiaohui, who had lived on nutrient solution for a week, began to consume liquid food. She and Luo Rui took turns to accompany her in the hospital, but Wen Xiaohui seemed to be only alive, but not angry at all.
Li Shuo had been here before, and he sat on the bedside for an hour. Before leaving, Wen Xiaohui nodded slightly as if he had just discovered him, his eyes were dull, Li Shuo sighed heavily, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Cao Hai also came here more than once, but he still couldn't see that Wen Xiaohui was in a state suitable for talking.
Wen Xiaohui's soul seemed to be taken away, leaving only a body.
After staying in the hospital for more than a month, he was taken home.
This home where he has lived for more than 20 years, the moment he stepped into the house, he remembered that every inch of the renovation was done by Luo Yi.
Luo Yi is everywhere in his life, Luo Yi who can't escape, Luo Yi who can't stop thinking about, Luo Yi is everywhere in his brain, but in reality he can no longer touch it, there is nothing anymore, More desperate than that. Pain is like a parasite that devours human flesh and blood. It has built a nest in his body, and maybe one day he will be hollowed out.
One day when he was washing his face, he accidentally found himself in the mirror. His hair was growing to his chest, he was thin, his face was so pale that he had no blood, and his eyes were as gray as stagnant water. When he had just escaped from Luoyi and went to Pengcheng, He was also decadent for a while, when he woke up in time, but now his mood didn't fluctuate much. It seems that there is nothing he needs to care about, and this is probably the way it is in this life.
I don't know how long it has passed, but Luo Rui doesn't come so often, maybe because no matter how much he says, he still doesn't get any response, only Feng Yuehua is always by his son's side, and the TV is on almost 24 hours a day, otherwise there will be no response at home. There will be no sound.
One day, Cao Hai came again.
Feng Yuehua didn't let him in, fearing that his appearance would irritate Wen Xiaohui again, but Wen Xiaohui heard voices inside, came out of the room rarely, and said flatly: "Mom, let him in."
Feng Yuehua had no choice but to let him in.
Cao Hai didn't look very well, with a tired face. After entering the door, he stared at Wen Xiaohui for several seconds, and then sighed imperceptibly.
Wen Xiaohui sat on the sofa and looked at him, didn't speak, just looked at him like that, making Cao Hai terrified.
Cao Hai coughed lightly: "Xiaohui, are you feeling better?"
Wen Xiaohui didn't seem to hear, and murmured: "When I first met Luo Yi, what were you thinking?" This was the longest sentence he had ever said since he woke up in the hospital.
Cao Hai was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly became nervous, even Feng Yuehua's expression changed.
Wen Xiaohui said to Feng Yuehua: "Mom, can I have a private word with Lawyer Cao?"
Feng Yuehua took a deep breath and said worriedly: "...Xiaohui."
Wen Xiaohui looked at her with firm eyes.
Feng Yuehua gave Cao Hai a warning look, got up and went into the house.
Wen Xiaohui turned to Cao Hai again: "You know all his plans, but under his coercion, you still worked for him. Looking at me, what were you thinking?"
Cao Hai swallowed: "I... It's been too long, I don't remember."
"It's been a long time, six years." Wen Xiaohui savored the number, it seemed to be very long, but at the same time it seemed to be extremely short, so short that there was no room left: "But I don't believe you don't remember, what were you thinking at that time, pity me, A little guilty?"
Cao Hai lowered his head, and after a while, as if he had made up his mind, he said, "No."
"Why?"
"We all feel that Mr. Luo's inheritance does not belong to you. You are an irrelevant person to us. It is enough to give you three million plus a house." Cao Hai clasped his hands, fingers wrapped around Together.
"But you didn't expect it to end up like this, what about now? Do you feel sorry for me, are you a little guilty?"
Cao Hai seemed to muster up the courage to glance at him. Wen Xiaohui's eyes were as calm as a windless sea, but he couldn't predict whether there would be a huge wave in the next second. He frowned, nodded and said, "Yes, Luo Yi is destined not to have a normal life, but you are innocent."
"You got me involved in something irrelevant, and then ruined my life, and now you want to pay me off, is it that simple?" Wen Xiaohui looked at Cao Hai, his eyes became fierce and cold, he had nowhere to vent his anger Pain and hatred seemed to break out of the cage.
Cao Hai bowed his head and remained silent.
Wen Xiaohui changed his breath with difficulty: "What about Chang Xing?"
"died."
"They're all dead, it's over once and for all, right?" Wen Xiaohui bit his lips: "Why keep the people alive? What does Luo Yi think the money can do? What's the use of asking you to rush to send the money to me?! "Wen Xiaohui shouted at Cao Hai.
Cao Hai wiped his face: "Luo Yi hopes you can live a good life..."
"Fart." Wen Xiaohui showed a smile that was worse than crying: "Live a good life? Luo Yi never wanted me to live a good life. Everything he did ran counter to 'hope I live a good life'. You thought he was dead , I left the money to me in the hope that I would forgive him? How is it possible, he wants me to live in his shadow for the rest of my life, even if he dies, he can control me forever!" Wen Xiaohui finished crying After these words, he stared at Cao Hai: "You think you understand Luo Yi, what do you think?"
When the early spring was warm and cold, the sweat on Cao Hai's face was dripping down like a dog day, and he buried his head even lower, as if he couldn't find words to refute.
"This is Luo Yi." Wen Xiaohui said in a daze: "This is Luo Yi. He said that as long as he has breath, he can't let me go. It turns out that even if he died, he didn't intend to let me go..." He Suddenly he laughed, "Now I believe that he really loves me in a monster-like way. If I hadn't been played to death by him, or he hadn't played himself to death, we would probably really grow old together." Speaking of Finally, the tail began to tremble.
Cao Hai sighed, "You know him better than you think."
"I know him well, so I never dare to believe him. He is a person who can sacrifice even himself for his goals." Wen Xiaohui unconsciously grasped the material of the clothes, and said in a trembling voice: "All of Luo Yi's goals have been achieved." Revenge on Chang Xing, possession of him, everything Luo Yi wanted, was finally obtained.
He thought he resisted Luo Yi with sneering words, and used every bit of Luo Yi's pain to get the pleasure of distorted revenge. He thought that even if Luo Yi imprisoned him, as long as his heart was still resisting, he would always win a move. Only then did he realize that there was never a win or a loss, and even if there was, he didn't win. It is always Luo Yi who wins, Luo Yi is the one who gets what he asks for, and he doesn't even know what he wants, so he loses in a mess and loses everything in the end.
He didn't dare to think, if he had given Luo Yi a chance, would it be the current situation, and he didn't dare to think about what would happen if Luo Yi was still alive. Forcibly extinguished in the heart, whether it is regretting the past, or dreaming a false future dream, it is all about stabbing the heart with a knife, and there is no other use.
He has lost desire for everything, career, money, appearance, future, he no longer expects anything, anything, he will probably live like this for the rest of his life, and if he lives like this, his life probably won't be long . He felt very sorry for his mother, Luo Rui, and many people who cared about him, but there was nothing he could do.
Because of loving someone, he has exhausted all his energy ahead of time, and now he can barely move forward, but he may fall down at any time.
Cao Hai looked at his ashen-ashamed appearance, his eyes flashed intolerable, he clenched his fists: "Xiaohui, any pain will pass."
"I won't, because this is what Luo Yi wanted. He planned everything, and everything will go according to his plan." Wen Xiaohui said to Cao Hai with a chilling calmness: "You go, Don't appear in front of me again, even if I think of you occasionally, I must be cursing you, so don't remind me of you again."
Cao Hai sighed forcefully, stood up, picked up his briefcase and walked towards the door.
Wen Xiaohui looked absently at the bright sunshine outside the window.
When Cao Hai walked to the door, he stopped in his tracks, hesitated for three seconds, and then said softly: "You said that Luo Yi can always get what he wants, do you know what Luo Yi is determined to get after working hard? ?”
Wen Xiaohui was slightly startled, and slowly turned to look at him.
Cao Hai didn't look back, opened the door and left.
