Xie Qingcheng didn't seem to plan to say anything to He Yu, and only asked: "Xie Xue didn't tell you?"
"no."
"Then she might think it's my personal business."
He Yujing for a while: "Are you and Li Rouqiu not suitable?"
Li Rouqiu is the name of Xie Qingcheng's ex-wife.
He Yu was very impressed with the woman who married Xie Qingcheng, and felt that there was something wrong with her, and she was able to walk into the grave of marriage with a cold father and a man like Xie Qingcheng.
In his impression, Xie Qingcheng seemed to have no desires and no desires, so he should be sitting in front of the desk in a neat white coat, with a huge volume of bookshelves behind him, and his body smelled of cold and sober medicine.
It is difficult for He Yu to believe that Xie Qingcheng would love someone, and it is even more difficult to believe that anyone would love Xie Qingcheng.
But Dr. Xie is indeed married.
He still remembered that on the wedding day, he followed his mother's request to take some money. He went freely, and he didn't even change his school uniform. The driver took him to the hotel, and he carried a schoolbag on one shoulder, stepped on white sneakers, put his hands in the trouser pockets of his school uniform sweatpants, and entered the hotel.
Xie Qingcheng was welcoming the guests there.
The wedding team did make-up for him. He stood in the middle of the crowd, with a straight body and a dignified manner. His dark eyebrows seemed to fall on the stars. The emcee was talking to him, it was too noisy all around, Xie Qingcheng was tall and couldn't hear clearly, so he turned his head and leaned over so that the emcee could speak against his ear, his face showed against the background of others A shocking whiteness, like thin porcelain lit by a spotlight, it will shatter even with a slight touch, and the color of the lips is slightly lighter, like blood frozen under the ice.
The skin is like a glass world, and the lips are like frost, snow and red plums.
Although He Yu doesn't like men, he is a very aesthetic person.
At that moment, he had a feeling, he thought that although the woman named Li Rouqiu was also very good-looking, in all fairness, He Yu felt that she and Xie Qingcheng were together, and the proposal screen might look like this—
Xie Qingcheng should be dressed in white, don't wear the usual ball-point pen and fountain pen, put his hands in his pockets and stand like a flower in the mountains, and then said to the girl in a tone of anger that would not pay for his life:
"I want to marry you, kneel down and thank you."
Of course, he is very good at pretending, and he won't tell the truth.
Carrying a one-shoulder schoolbag, He Yu stepped forward with a smile, stood in front of the handsome groom and beautiful bride, and said, "Doctor Xie, sister-in-law."
Li Ruoqiu: "This is..."
Xie Qingcheng introduced to his wife: "My friend's son."
He had an agreement with the He family that he would not say that He Yu was a patient outside.
Li Rouqiu praised: "It's so beautiful, what a child to look good on."
He Yu bowed politely, very gentlemanly, with a smile in his dark eyes: "Where, sister-in-law, you are the real beauty."
Saying that, the young man took the sealed red envelope from the one-shoulder canvas schoolbag.
Hundred years of good ass.
At that time, he felt that a man like Xie Qingcheng couldn't bear it, but he didn't expect this marriage to be so short-lived. Now it seems that he still has the ability to speak spirit
He Yu endured schadenfreude and asked calmly, "Why did you leave?"
Xie Qingcheng did not speak.
"I remember she liked you very much at that time. She came to my house after marrying you. At that time, there was no one in her eyes, only you."
Xie Qingcheng opened his mouth and said, "He Yu, this is indeed my private matter."
He Yu raised his eyebrows slightly.
He looked at Xie Qingcheng's loneliness, and suddenly felt that after he had been abroad for a few years, the person he saw again seemed to have many things different.
It's just that he was not curious about Xie Qingcheng's changes, so he finally smiled: "That's it, I wish you a successful blind date."
Xie Qing glanced at him indifferently, turned around and left without saying thank you.
The dormitory door closed behind him.
Because He Yu mentioned his ex-wife, Xie Qingcheng couldn't help but recall the extremely failed marriage between himself and Li Rouqiu while walking on the road.
Xie Qingcheng actually knew why Xie Xue didn't mention this to He Yu.
Because the reason for his divorce was very embarrassing - Li Rouqiu did love him, but she did not love him anymore.
She cheated.
This is unacceptable to Xie Qingcheng. He doesn't know what love is, but he knows what family responsibility is. In some places, his thinking is very conservative.
But she is different.
She believes that the most important thing in marriage is love, not responsibility, so in the end they are still separated. She fell in love with a married man, but after the incident, she cried and accused him that he only had work in his eyes and wanted to marry him It's no different than marrying a cold work schedule.
Such accusations are not unreasonable, Xie Qingcheng knew that he was an unsentimental person.
In this relationship, Xie Qingcheng actually didn't feel any love. She chased him for many years, and he later felt that it was suitable. After a period of contact, he got married.
After marriage, the husband did not evade the things he should do and the obligations he should perform.
But she didn't want such a marriage.
Xie Qingcheng is very responsible, but he is not romantic and has a cold temper. He can maintain calm and rationality even between the beds, without sinking, without obsession, like finishing a job that must be done after forming a family, fulfilling obligations, but not so keen.
Her heart gradually cooled down.
She cheated and turned around and said to him, "Xie Qingcheng, you have no heart. You still don't understand to this day. I want to have love, not just marriage."
But what is love
Xie Qingcheng only felt that his headache was splitting, and he didn't know how much effort it took to hold back his anger and beat the table. He looked at her for a long time at that time, and finally said numbly, his voice was as calm as dead water: "Does that person like you? He has a wife and daughter, how much do you think he is sincere to you?"
When asked this sentence, she raised her head, and there was something in her eyes that Xie Qingcheng couldn't understand at all.
"...I don't care if he has a wife or children. I only know that when he hugs me, at least he is warm. I can hear his heart beating faster. Unlike you, Xie Qingcheng, you are clean and never mess with flowers. You give me your money and your family, but your heartbeat to me is like a dead electrocardiogram, after all these years of marriage, it's always a straight line."
"In just a few decades of life, he was bound by his own unfortunate marriage, and so was I. Now I think about it, I can have no name, no money, or even fame, and others call me a slut/woman No matter how bad the shoes are, I just want to be with him."
Xie Qingcheng closed his eyes, the cigarette in his hand almost burned his fingertips: "Li Ruoqiu, are you crazy? There is no love in this world, love is the reaction of dopamine in the human body, and your hormones are at work, but this There are responsibilities in the world, there are families. You are burning out and want to be with him, is he willing to divorce and live with you?"
silence.
Then the flame in Li Rouqiu's eyes burned even hotter and maddened. She finally burst into tears, but she stubbornly said to him, "I just don't want to regret it."
"Xie Qingcheng, there is love in this world. It may be outrageous, it may go against human ethics, it may be degraded to the soil, and it is filthy, but it exists, and it has nothing to do with hormones and dopamine."
"Sorry, I can't live with you anymore because I know what love is now. I love him, even though it's wrong."
After so many years of divorce, Xie Qingcheng still finds this conversation absurd whenever he thinks of it.
If the so-called love is to let a person know that he is wrong, but also to break the blood, know that one step will be an abyss, but also to be obsessed, infamy, cast aside, morality, life, bottom line... everything can be ignored. So in his opinion, this is probably not a kind of love, but a kind of disease.
He couldn't empathize with it.
Although he has a very tough personality, after all, he is a straight man, and he is a bit macho, his wife cheated, and he ran away with a married man, and he was still hurt in the end.
For a while after the divorce, Xie Qingcheng still worked, wrote papers, and took students. Usually, he could not see any discomfort. But everyone around him could see that he was losing weight quickly, his cheeks were sunken slightly, and his voice was hoarse when he spoke.
Out of concern that "if he dies, there will be a hot search at the school", the leader greeted him with greetings: "Professor Xie, if you are not feeling well, take a leave of absence and go home for a while, and don't force it."
Unexpectedly, Xie Qingcheng dumped a bunch of ppt compressed packages for him. It is the latest courseware. The content is fine and the system is concise. The leaders ask themselves, even when they are the clearest and most energetic, it is difficult to teach in such a short time. to complete such a project.
"Do you want me to go back?" Xie Qingcheng leaned back on the office chair, a slender man with ten fingers crossed, as thin as light paper, as thin as a blue smoke, but it was still clear when he looked up at him. It can even be said to be cold and sharp.
"I do want to rest, but please make sure that the first lecture of this courseware has no one else but me."
Naturally, there is no such person.
The leader also saw from his burning eyes that his school would not be on the hot search list for the time being—that was not the kind of eyes a person who was about to die would have.
But almost no one knows that in order to work well and to bury the broken emotions in his heart, Xie Qingcheng would sit in the room and smoke as long as he came home. To smoke your own lungs black, to turn your whole house into a nicotine paradise.
It was very uncomfortable for him to be seen by Auntie Li from the neighbor's house like this.
The Xie family was originally from a very good family. His parents were both very high-ranking police superintendents, but then something went wrong in handling the case, and both of them were relegated to the grassroots level. At that time, Mother Xie fell ill again. In order to treat her, they sold a big house and lived in a small alley in the old city of Shanghai City.
When Xie Qingcheng's parents died, Xie Qingcheng was not yet an adult, and he had to take on the responsibility of the head of the family. The neighbors looked at the children and took good care of them. Among these people, Xie Qingcheng was the best. This is Auntie Li.
Aunt Li is a little younger than Xie Qingcheng's mother and likes children, but she has never been married and has no children of her own. She almost regarded the Xie brothers and sisters as her own treasures, especially after Xie's father and Xie's mother passed away, this duckweed and weed-like woman and the two children who were abandoned by their parents found something in each other that they couldn't give up. emotion.
Xie Qingcheng got divorced, Aunt Li washed her face in tears for a while, and then, like an old mother with a broken heart, she cheered up and tried to introduce him to a girl.
As for him, in order not to hurt Aunt Li's feelings, he went all the way, but he was actually just going through the motions, and for those girls, he wasn't a very good choice—
When Xie Qingcheng got married for the first time, the conditions were very good. He was handsome, tall, a doctor in a third-class hospital, in his twenties, with a bright future and a bright future.
The only hardware flaw is that he doesn't come from a very good background and has no money.
However, now, he is a second married, and the salary of a university professor is not as high as that of a doctor, and he is not so young anymore, so his defects have become abnormally bony. A divorced man, at the age of four, without a good house or a good car, and a younger sister who is not married and needs his care is dragging the oil bottle.
No matter how handsome your face looks, but you are not a star, you can't always get money to live.
How can the parents of the girl not mind
Blind date is different from falling in love. At first glance, it is said to be eye relationship, but it is actually a combination of conditions, so the dialogue that occurs is often like this:
"It's a good job, can you take care of your family?"
"No. Because he is a professor of medical school, the content of the lectures needs to be very careful, and there should be no mistakes. Students have many problems and often work overtime."
"Oh... Then, the salary is good, right?"
"It may take another three years or so to improve. But I'm not sure if I will still be in college after three years."
"Is that so... Are there any other relatives in your family?"
"...has a sister."
"Married?"
"Not yet."
…
Spying is often sharp and straightforward, and a knife generally dissects a person's condition, and also shaves off the other party's hopeful smile at the beginning.
When Auntie Li found out, she was very anxious: "Hey, blind date is to praise yourself! This is a customary rule. Others are bragging. As soon as Nong comes up, they say that they are bad. Everyone thinks that I can talk. It's even worse, who would have known it would be the other way around!"
Xie Qingcheng originally wanted to say, "I don't want to get married again."
But to Auntie Li's anxious eyes, she changed her words to: "...I'm used to it. I'm sorry."
Auntie Li glared at him, and she choked up a little: "Child, if you say you are so good, why didn't the Buddha bless you... I burn incense every day and worship every day, just to ask God to find another treasure for my family. It's a good marriage, then it's worth it if I die right away..."
"Aunt Li, you can't talk nonsense."
"I'm so old, what should I be afraid of? You're different, you're still young, if things don't go well in the future, I'll go underground, where will I have the face to see your father and Muying..."
Auntie Li insisted on finding all kinds of girls for him, always hoping to make a marriage.
Xie Qingcheng felt very uncomfortable. He was an arrogant and tough guy. He didn't want to lie, and he didn't want to be criticized. For some reasons, his mood was completely different from when he had a blind date with Li Rouqiu. Make sure you won't spend the rest of your life with anyone else.
But with his character as a man in charge, how could he bear the sadness and tears of his relatives and friends? He could only accept that they were happy under his protection and care.
So even if the results were predictable, he would agree to go to those job-seeking blind dates in order to make Auntie Li happier.
.
The blind date with him this time is a very young girl named Bai Jing. There is a relative in the family who teaches at the university. I heard that she is also from a well-known medical school. And she herself is the counter sister of the luxury counter in the most fashionable all in Shanghai.
The most important thing in a coastal city with a lot of money is the gold owner with billions of assets. Girls spend all day in the high-end luxury counters. Listening to the chatter of male and female customers, they can't help but feel that they are very noble. Leng Yan's illusion, seeing people holding their heads up, first glance at the logo of the clothes, and put all the boys who wear Ad Nike with the stamp of poverty in their hearts, at least wearing a Prada is worthy to talk to her.
When Xie Qingcheng came to the cafe, Bai Jing was on the phone with her best friend: "Oh, yes, you don't know, I can meet that kind of idiot every day at work, and two mothers and sons came here today, and their sons are wearing What I don't know, it's probably Taobao goods, if it weren't for my professionalism, I would have rolled my eyes to the sky, hey, wearing Taobao to visit our counters, Nongwo is not a hair."
With her pinky thumb up, she was stirring the coffee in the small cup. Bai Jing listened to her best friend's reply on the other end of the phone, and covered her mouth with joy.
"Then what else can I buy? I can't afford anything. A pair of slippers at our counter may cost their mother and son half a year's salary. Hey, baby, and I'm telling you, you know what that boy came up to and told me? He said to me, 'Do you have any baseball caps for sale here? My mom likes sports, and it's her birthday today, and I want to buy her a baseball cap.'"
Bai Jing laughed so hard that the branches trembled.
"I directly replied to him and said, sorry, our brand has never produced baseball caps, sir, don't you know our brand? Hahahaha, you didn't see his face! It's very wonderful... Oh, wait a minute, and I The man on the blind date seems to be here, I won't talk to you for now, I'll go back to Bulgari to check in for afternoon tea, baby, love you! Mua!"
It's a pity that the cafe was noisy, and Xie Qingcheng was looking for someone again, so she didn't hear her rhetoric.
Seeing the way he looked left and right, Bai Jing matched the image described by the matchmaker as "tall, handsome, with peach eyes, but very cold in temperament", and immediately waved to him: "Hi! Is that Professor Xie Qingcheng? "
Xie Qingcheng came over and said, "Well. Hello."
Bai Jing looked him up and down, and finally fixed her eyes on his simple T-shirt. She suddenly smiled, and her voice was eight degrees louder: "Hello, hello, my name is Bai Jing."
