In the photo, Grandma Ding is sitting in the middle, surrounded by a young couple, and Ding Yuan is standing behind them.
Ding Yuan looked only in his teens, handsome, with red lips and white teeth.
The four members of this family all had smiles on their faces, giving people a very warm feeling, obviously a very happy family.
Looking at this family portrait, Su Yuli felt quite uncomfortable. They are smiling so brightly and happily in the photo, who would have thought that they are now separated forever.
Grandma Ding pointed to the person in the photo, and introduced to Su Yuli: "This is Xiaoyuan's father, and this is his mother."
Su Yuli calmed down, and said in a relaxed tone: "Uncle is so handsome, and Auntie is also beautiful. No wonder Xiao Yuan looks so good."
Grandma Ding's eyes naturally dropped, she landed on the phone, and did not speak.
After holding back, Su Yuli couldn't help asking: "Grandma Ding, what happened to Xiaoyuan's parents..."
"A car accident." Grandma Ding stroked the photo with her skinny fingers, her voice was very soft, and she couldn't hear any emotion, "That year Xiaoyuan was in junior high school."
Su Yuli pursed her lower lip, suddenly regretting asking this question.
After a moment of silence, Su Yuli said: "Grandma Ding, I saw that this photo was taken from an album with a mobile phone. You are amazing. Many old people I know don't even know how to use a mobile phone."
"This is Xiaoyuan's mobile phone." Grandma Ding said, "He originally bought me a new one. If I am an old man, I will change it with him for any new mobile phone."
Su Yuli snorted.
It was quiet again in the ward.
It was the first time for Su Yuli to encounter such a situation where he didn't know what to say. He scratched his hair, and saw Grandma Ding scrolling through the phone pages, looking at the photos in the album one by one.
Suddenly, Grandma Ding's hand stopped, and Su Yuli looked over, and saw that she was looking at a group photo—a group photo of Ding Yuan and Mu Lang.
This photo should have been taken in the spring when everything was recovering. Mu Lang was wearing a long windbreaker, with one hand on Ding Yuan's shoulder, while Ding Yuan was wearing a white sweater and jeans, holding a mobile phone in one hand, with a youthful atmosphere.
Ding was very close to Mu Lang, and he was smiling with high spirits.
This is Ding Yuan who Su Yuli has never seen before.
In the photo, Ding Yuan looks much more immature than now. When was this photo taken? When Ding Yuan was in high school
They knew each other so early
Grandma Ding looked at it for a while, then sighed: "That kid Xiaoyuan, I'm not willing to delete this photo yet."
Su Yuli sensed Grandma Ding's emotions, and said, "Maybe I forgot or maybe, you see, Xiaoyuan has no contact with this person at all now."
Grandma Ding nodded absent-mindedly, and Su Yuli's eyes fell on the photo again, and he licked his lower lip: "Grandma Ding, I heard from Xiaoyuan that he and Mu... had a relationship with this person, is it true?"
Grandma Ding nodded, "Yes, they have dated before, it's just..."
"only?"
"This man lied to Xiao Yuan."
Su Yuli frowned, sat up straight and said, "How?"
On the other side, when Luo Xing returned to the office after the meeting, he saw a person sitting on the sofa for receiving customers.
There was a cup of coffee in front of Mu Lang, and he crossed his legs in a very casual posture.
The female employee outside secretly peeped in through the open door, eyes are
Can't hide the surprise and joy.
Just the next moment, Luo Xing slammed the door shut, ruthlessly blocking the sight of those people.
As soon as Luo Xing came in, Mu Lang smiled and said, "Senior, your office environment is nice, open and bright, I'm a little envious."
Luo Xing went to the office chair and sat down, without a good face: "What are you doing here?"
Mu Lang took a sip of coffee slowly and said, "Come and see you. How was last night? Didn't go well?"
As soon as this matter was brought up, Luo Xing's pent-up anger ignited instantly, "You still have the nerve to ask, I asked you to hold Wen Jin..."
But Mu Lang interrupted him forcefully: "I held him back. I held him for more than ten minutes. What can you not say to Sui Yan? Expressing your heart is just a matter of words. Why is the senior so angry? "
Speaking of this, Mu Lang paused, and he looked at Luo Xing with interest: "Or, the senior wants to do other things with Sui Yan? Is there not enough time?"
Thinking of Lin Suiyan's rejection of his voluntary dedication that day, or in front of Su Yuli, Luo Xing's face turned green and white, so exciting.
After a while, he finally said stiffly: "You came to me just to talk about this?"
Mu Lang leaned back on the sofa, and said with a leisurely smile, "That's not true, I happened to pass by here on business, and remembered that you were in a bad mood, so I came to see you."
After himself, he took out a beautifully packaged box, "What happened yesterday is my fault, and this is my apology."
Luo Xing didn't speak, Mu Lang got up and straightened his clothes: "Senior, there is a saying 'good things take time', you don't have to worry, Lin Suiyan will be yours."
Hearing Mu Lang's words with such determination, Luo Xing couldn't help feeling a little suspicious in his heart. He really didn't understand why Mu Lang wanted to deal with Lin Suiyan. They had known each other since childhood and were obviously friends.
Is Mu Lang really for Wen Jin
But before he could think it through, Mu Lang left the office.
When Lin Suiyan returned home, Aunt Xu told Su Yuli that she had locked herself in the room for two hours.
Aunt Xu said: "I see that Xiao Jin is not in a good mood, she has a long face."
Lin Suiyan took off his coat and replied, "I see."
Lin Suiyan pushed open the door, and saw Su Yuli lying on the bed playing games, pressing his fingers quickly, with a cute little angry expression on his face.
Lin Suiyan put the juice he brought on the bedside, just as the game was over, Su Yuli dropped the phone, turned over and rolled onto Lin Suiyan's lap.
Lin Suiyan laughed: "What's the matter, Aunt Xu said you are in a bad mood."
Su Yuli said in a muffled voice: "I feel very uncomfortable seeing Grandma Ding like this. Sui Yan, I think Grandpa's health is almost recovered. Let's take him back and live with him more. Let's spend more time with him."
The old man is getting old, no one knows when he will leave, and they don't have much time to spend together.
Lin Suiyan stroked Su Yuli's hair and said, "Okay, I'll contact the doctor and bring grandpa back if there is no problem."
Although there are special staff to take care of the nursing home, it is not as comfortable as at home. Mr. Lin probably wants to spend more time with his grandson.
Su Yuli's eyes lit up, and he stood up: "Okay, I'll clean up Grandpa's room right now."
Lin Sui said: "Grandpa's room is cleaned by Aunt Xu every day, so you don't need to go."
Su Yuli groaned, and lay back down again. He picked up his phone and asked Lin Suiyan, "Playing games?"
…
Just as Lin Suiyan and Su Yuli were enthusiastically preparing to take Mr. Lin home, on the other side, a tragedy without warning suddenly occurred.
When Su Yuli received the news of Grandma Ding's death, he was buying clothes for Mr. Lin with Lin Suiyan at the mall. His eye circles turned red all of a sudden, and he said in a trembling voice, "I see, I'll be there right away."
When Su Yuli and Lin Suiyan rushed to the nursing home, they could only hear Ding Yuan's suppressed cries from the ward.
Su Yuli's hand that pushed the door stopped suddenly, and he was very afraid of this kind of scene of life and death.
Su Yuli stood at the door for a while, until Lin Suiyan took his hand, then he took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
In the room, Ding Yuan knelt by the bed, held Grandma Ding's hand, his shoulders trembled, and suppressed crying came out of his mouth.
Su Yuli glanced at the bed, Grandma Ding's face was peaceful, as if she was asleep. But he knew that this kind old man would never open his eyes again.
Thinking of all the things they got along with in the past few months, Su Yuli couldn't help but shed tears.
Grandma Ding's funeral is three days later.
The funeral was deserted, except for Ding Yuan, Su Yuli, Lin Suiyan and Yang Shuo, there was no one else.
Ding Yuan looked at the photo of Grandma Ding on the tombstone, without moving or speaking. He didn't shed tears, he had already shed all tears in those three days.
Suddenly footsteps sounded in the silent cemetery, and they were getting closer. Su Yuli looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Mu Lang walking over with a solemn expression, wearing a black suit and holding a bunch of chrysanthemums in his arms.
Thinking of what Grandma Ding said about him and Ding Yuan, Su Yuli couldn't help frowning.
We broke up, why is this guy still disgusting
Mu Lang stepped forward, put the bouquet of chrysanthemums in front of the tomb, and whispered to Ding Yuan: "My condolences."
Ding Yuan didn't respond to Mu Lang's appearance, as if the person in front of him didn't exist.
The wind in the cemetery was a bit strong, but it was also a bit cool. After a while, water dripped down.
It's raining.
The rain was pattering at first, but soon turned into a heavy rain.
Mu Lang clicked his tongue, and said to the pale and sickly Ding Yuan, "It's raining, I'll take you back."
Ding Yuan didn't seem to hear, still looking at the tombstone with a sad face.
Mu Lang was about to say something when he saw a tall man next to Ding Yuan take off his suit and put it on Ding Yuan's head.
Then the man took Ding Yuan with one arm, and said involuntarily: "It's raining, you are not in good health, let's go back."
Unexpectedly, Ding Yuan did not refuse, and let Yang Shuo take him away.
Mu Lang frowned and blocked their way. He stared at Yang Shuo and asked in a bad tone, "Who are you?"
Yang Shuo said coolly, "I'm Xiaoyuan's friend."
"Friend?" Mu Lang's eyes fell on Yang Shuo's hand holding Ding Yuan's shoulder, his voice was mocking and cold, "I don't think it's as simple as being a friend."
He still remembered that day when Ding Yuan passed out in the hotel, the man looked nervous and worried, and he even went out with Ding Yuan in his arms.
Is this what normal friends do
Su Yuli watched from the side, a little confused, why the atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if a fight would start in the next second.
Just as Yang Shuo was about to speak, Ding Yuan said coldly: "What is our relationship, it has nothing to do with you." He grabbed his coat tightly and left with Yang Shuo.
Seeing Mu Lang's devastated face, Su Yuli felt very happy, he pulled Lin Sui to say: "Let's go back too."
Lin Suiyan nodded, greeted Mu Lang coldly, and left with Su Yuli.
