Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 490: Be prepared

Views:

Zhao Qian originally spent a huge sum of money to buy this house. After buying it, he also spent a lot of effort to decorate it and wait until it was tidied up. But he rarely comes to stay, and the number of times he has stayed can be counted on one hand.

The house is exquisitely decorated, but it doesn't have much of a sense of life. It's as exquisite as a model room. Although it was summer, she still felt that the room was cold.

She sat on the sofa, turned on the TV, and searched aimlessly for programs to watch. After searching around, she finally found a music channel and stopped.

She stared at the TV screen with blank eyes, but she didn't listen carefully to any of the songs playing on it, her thoughts had drifted to a distant place. Thinking of the days when the two of them had stayed in this house, those short-lived moments of beauty were deeply imprinted in her mind.

The man has gone, and she might not be able to come back if she waits any longer.

Li Wei felt a little tight in the chest and short of breath, and the reaction in the back of his body when he was in Daqi came back. She hated this feeling.

By the time she returned to Cuiwei Road, it was already past eight o'clock. Li Jianbo called Li Wei many times before, but he always said that the number could not be connected. Later, Li Jianbo tried to contact several friends who had contact with Li Wei, but they all said that they had never met Li Wei.

Li Jianbo panicked at that time. How could someone as old as Li Wei get lost

So when Li Wei came back, Li Jianbo's first question was: "Where have you been? I've been looking for you."

Li Wei said: "I didn't go anywhere, I just walked around casually."

Her expression was forlorn, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes. Overall, she seemed to be in a bad situation.

"Kuang Jie made dinner. I'll heat it up so it tastes better for you."

When Li Wei heard about it, he turned around and replied: "Second brother, thank you. I'm not hungry." Li Wei said and returned to his bedroom. She closed the door, closing her heart as well.

Li Jianbo heard the banging sound, and he was surprised and said: There is indeed something wrong with my sister. It seems that I need to have a good talk with her.

Li Wei stayed alone for a while, still feeling depressed. When he looked up, he found that it was almost ten o'clock. She was afraid that her second brother would be worried about her, so she still planned to go out and show her face.

When she opened the door, she saw Li Jianbo sitting on the sofa. There was a bottle of red wine and two glasses on the coffee table.

"Come here!" Li Jianbo waved to her.

Li Wei saw that she was going to be scolded, but she still walked over.

Li Jianbo opened the bottle and poured half a glass of wine into each of the two glasses in front of him.

"Come here and let's have a drink."

"I don't feel well, so I might not be suitable for drinking."

"It doesn't matter, this is red wine. Drinking it in moderation is good for your health."

Li Wei finally came over. When Li Jianbo raised his glass and clinked it to Li Wei, Li Wei was startled. When Li Jianbo indicated that she could drink some, Li Wei took a few sips. In fact, she doesn't really like the taste of dry red, and is more receptive to semi-dry red.

"It seems like I haven't had a drink with you for a long time."

Li Jianbo said with a smile, then walked over and played with the ancient record player. He put in a vinyl record. Soothing music slowly flowed out.

"This record player is really an antique, but what's even more rare is that the sound quality of such an ancient thing is not bad at all."

"Yeah, I still feel good when I listen to the record player. Unfortunately, it's hard to buy records now, and the record player has completely become a collection."

The two actually started talking about music. As they talked, Li Wei naturally talked about the violin played by Li Jianbo.

Li Jianbo said: "We talked to you every day when you were in a coma, always trying to wake you up. It's much more convenient after you go home, so I insisted on playing the violin for you, hoping that one day I can impress you and let you hear music. When I woke up, it turned out that I had succeeded.”

Li Wei took advantage of the situation and said: "No wonder I always dream about the sound of music, but I don't know where it comes from."

"Having been unconscious for so long, did you dream? What did you dream about?" Li Jianbo turned his head and looked at her with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

The second brother is the only person in the world who knows her and Zhao Qian's secret, and Li Wei has never thought of hiding it.

"I had a long, long dream, and it was such a real dream. I spent more than a year in the dream, and during this time I experienced all the sorrow and separation. I thought it would always be there. I can’t come back from that dream, but luckily I heard the sound of my second brother’s piano.”

"Did you dream about your childhood, or did you dream about something that happened a long time ago?"

"I returned to Daqi, and Zhao Qian... also appeared in my dream. He and I worked together to find out the truth about his murder, solved the enemy, and lost Fu Guang. In the end, I am still not a reliable queen mother. After all, I still failed to live up to the late emperor’s entrustment... "

Li Jianbo listened quietly. Although it was a bit absurd, he chose to believe it.

"Zhao Qian has completely disappeared. Could it be that he has returned to that era?"

"It's ridiculous, but it's true." Li Wei was obviously smiling when she said this, but she cried after the next sentence: "Second brother, I told him that I would wait for him in the future. , but he broke his promise. I lost the ring, the passage to this time and space was closed, and he could never come back. "

Seeing her crying but feeling helpless, Li Jianbo gently beat Li Wei's back, thinking that he might just cry happily and let out all the frustration in his heart.

After Li Wei's mood calmed down a little, Li Jianbo tried to communicate with her again: "Whether he can come back or not, I don't care. But you have to be prepared."

"I know that I should have been prepared a long time ago. I should be prepared to lose him. I stayed at his place for a while today, but I felt depressed all the time. I felt unspeakably uncomfortable."

Li Jianbo sighed, and then said: "Sister, you are depressed. It doesn't matter. It's uncomfortable to hold all these unhappiness in your heart. Just tell them all. They may not believe these words if you tell them to others, but I There was never any doubt.”

Li Wei dropped everything in front of her second brother and cried heartily. After crying, I felt much better.

Li Jianbo took a tissue and gently wiped Li Wei's tears.

"If he can't come back, you have to learn to let go. This life is still very long, and you will meet more people. Let the past pass, and people always have to look forward, you know? ?”

"But it's always easier said than done."

"No matter how difficult it is, I will accompany you through it." Li Jianbo stared at the mist-filled eyes in front of him, feeling countless unbearable feelings in his heart. Finally, it turned into a warm touch on the head.

"Come with me for a walk in a few days, and your mood will gradually improve." Li Jianbo said and squeezed Li Wei's restless hand.
