Chapter 35: go your way

Views:

The next day I picked up Sheng Minou to go to work on time, he seemed to be normal, as if he didn't remember what happened last night at all, it was no different to me. His attitude is clear, and I will do what he expects, as long as nothing happens.

Sometimes I really admire him. If I were anyone, I am afraid that I would not be able to be as straightforward as him without changing his face. And I don't know if it's because he vented his emotions thoroughly, but his tone of voice seems to be less impatient. In the morning, I almost missed the brakes and rear-ended the car in front. Usually he would have been angry, but today he just asked me to "watch".

Tomorrow is the trial, and Sheng Minou probably wants to face the opposing lawyer in good spirits. He didn't arrange any entertainment at night, but just held a long meeting before the trial. It started at one o'clock in the afternoon and ended at an unknown time.

The meeting was too lengthy, and technical terms were interspersed from time to time. I fell asleep listening to it, and I couldn't listen to it halfway through, so I had to leave the meeting room to get some air.

It was at this time that Mo Qiu called.

Luo Zhengyun is dead, and Mo Qiu's troubles are gone, but he is not me, a living person died in front of him, and he was still someone he liked, which made his already sensitive heart hit hard, depressed and stressed, Depressed for a long time. Fortunately, he also knew that his situation was critical, and he was afraid that he would die if he didn't help himself, so he followed the advice of the psychiatrist, signed up for a very interactive tour group, and went out to play for more than two months.

I saw those photos he posted in Moments, blue sky, sea, young people who love to laugh, their complexion improved, their spirits improved, and the treatment effect was excellent.

He called me this time because he brought me a souvenir after returning from a trip, and secondly, he wanted to treat me to dinner to thank me for helping him with Luo Zhengyun's matter.

I don't care if I thank you or not, but since he has said so, I can't refuse anymore. In the end, I chose a restaurant downstairs of Sheng Minou's law firm as the meeting place. The restaurant is a Cantonese restaurant with authentic taste, fresh ingredients and high cost performance. Those lawyers in Jinshang like to order food there.

Mo Qiu had no objection and decided to meet at five o'clock.

After I hung up the phone, I checked the time and found that it was almost 4:30, and Sheng Minou's side seemed to be still early. I didn't know if they had adjourned the meeting after I finished eating.

I said hello to the girl at the front desk, and said that I would go down to have a meal by myself, and if the meeting was over, I would ask her to give me a call.

The front desk gave me an "ok" without saying a word.

I have the grace to save her life, and she is always willing to help with such small things.

Mo Qiu arrived at the restaurant at two minutes to five. He changed his usual black and white dressing style, wearing a turmeric sweater, black slacks, and cut his hair short. His face was already tender, but this time he was so youthful that I couldn't even recognize him.

"What's the matter, isn't it suitable for me?" After sitting down, he took the menu handed over by the waiter and began to look through it, noticing my surprise and feeling a little embarrassed.

I poured tea for him, and explained: "No, you have changed so much all of a sudden, I can't recognize you at all."

Mo Qiu smiled shyly: "I made a lot of friends during this trip, and one of them is a fashion designer... He said it would suit me better and look more attractive. This outfit was made for me by him. .” As he spoke, he lowered his head and adjusted his glasses, the smile on the corner of his mouth persisted for a long time.

This appearance is obviously a condition. People often say that the best way to cure a broken relationship is to start a new relationship. Mo Qiu’s experience is more serious than a broken relationship. If there is someone who can soothe his wounded heart and let him regain his love for life Longing is a good thing.

However, Mo Qiu didn't talk about this "designer friend" anymore. After all, this is his private matter. If he doesn't say it, I can't take the initiative to mention it.

"By the way, a present for you." After ordering, Mo Qiu handed me the paper bag.

I took a look and found that inside was a can that looked a bit like a hair mask, the size of a palm, and the outer packaging was written in English. I understood a line, saying that it could be used to wipe hands and body.

Mo Qiu said: "This is lanolin, it's good for skin, it's not easy to dry out in winter."

I found that Mo Qiu and I still have a big gap in life attitude. He obviously lives a lot more delicately than me. I have never wiped anything on my face except water in my life.

If he didn't tell me, I didn't even know there was such a thing as sheep oil in this world.

"Very good, Qingwan is very dry in winter, and I often get static electricity on my body." I thanked him and put the paper bag aside.

The dishes came to the table one after another, and Mo Qiu began to chat with me about what he had seen and heard in the past two months.

Beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, customs and customs. The world is so big, and there are many kind people. Where he walked, people may be poor, but they never give up their love for life. Others don't understand their optimism, and they don't need others to understand. Living is not to think about the past and the future, but to enjoy every day of happiness.

Mo Qiu was almost fascinated by such a simple and straightforward attitude towards life, and bluntly said that it is the paradise of his dreams. If possible, he hopes to buy a small apartment there and settle down when he grows up.

Compared with him, I seem to have no pursuit. I have never thought of leaving Qingwan City. I have lived here since I was a child, my parents are buried here, and Sheng Minou is also here. Although it is not an ideal land of singing birds and fragrant flowers, it is even so bustling and noisy that it is a headache, but it is indeed the only place that makes me feel at ease.

This is my home, which belongs to my "Peach Blossom Spring".

Holding the hot tea, Mo Qiu said: "Before, I felt that my life was hopeless, and all the bad things seemed to happen to me... But in fact, everyone has everyone's troubles. There is no 100% happiness in the world. .It’s just like a person drinking water, knowing whether it’s warm or not.” After speaking, he pushed the teacup forward.

It took only two months to realize this. If he hadn’t behaved as usual and was full of positive energy, I would have suspected that he had joined some kind of MLM organization instead of a tour group.

When we chatted until around 6:30, my phone vibrated suddenly, and a message came from the front desk, saying that Sheng Minou and the others had finished their meeting, and everyone was already packing their things.

Mo Qiu saw that I was paying attention to my phone from time to time, so he might have guessed that I had something to do next, so he took the initiative to call the waiter to pay the bill, declaring that the dinner party was successfully concluded.

"Sorry, I'll invite you next time."

Carrying a souvenir, he walked out of the shopping mall with Mo Qiu, and stood on the side of the road waiting for the bus.

Mo Qiu shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "It's okay. Actually, I'm starting to apply for some foreign universities. I'm currently preparing materials, and I have to take an exam in a while, and I have a lot of homework waiting for me in the evening. You It's okay, I also have to go home early to study."

I was surprised: "You want to study abroad?"

"I just... want to try a different life." Mo Qiu smiled and said, "It may not be successful."

I cupped my fists at him: "Then I wish you smooth sailing and success in your studies."

Mo Qiu also bowed back to me: "By virtue of Brother Lu's good words, I also wish Brother Lu all the best and a smooth life." He stared at me, his eyes reflecting the neon lights and shadows around him, "Lu Feng, you will definitely Good people are rewarded."

I was caught off guard by being issued a good person card, and just as I was feeling amused, he suddenly stepped forward and hugged me tightly.

"You don't know, you were my hero when I was young." He sighed, "Really, thank you."

I have never encountered this situation before, and I was a little afraid to move for a while, and I froze there and didn't know how to react. After a while, Mo Qiu let go of me by himself, with tears in his eyes, and lightly patted my shoulder with his palm.

"You..." Just as he opened his mouth to say something, suddenly Wu Yi exclaimed in surprise and bewilderment not far away.

"... Lu, Mr. Lu?"

Mo Qiu and I turned our heads at the same time, and saw a large group of lawyers from Jinshang Law Firm standing three meters away from us. Everyone had unpredictable expressions, as if they were watching some super big show.

Especially Wu Yi, with the expression of eating expired rotten melon. He might really not be able to understand what the hell Mo Qiu and I, the two victims of the Luo Zhengyun case, were doing on the main road under the eyes of everyone.

Moving his gaze to the tall figure in the front, Sheng Minou put one hand in his pocket, glanced at Mo Qiu's palm on my shoulder, and Mo Qiu immediately bounced it off as if it was scalded. And almost at the same time, Sheng Minou's eyes also wandered away, and he walked past me without stopping, heading towards the shopping mall.

The rest of the people followed quickly, wishing they could fly away from this place of right and wrong with their wings.

Embarrassed, Wu Yi pointed to the busy shopping mall and said, "We have a good meeting, come... come to eat, that... I'm sorry, you continue." ran away.

What the hell, I've been with them for more than half a month and I haven't seen them eat out. I just went out for a meal today, and they also went out to eat. Are you targeting me

"They... they seem to have misunderstood, do you want me to explain?" Mo Qiu became nervous and began to stammer again.

I gave him a bad look: "No, let's go."
