The boy was injured but pretended to be cold and his eyes were still lingering in front of my eyes. I stood in the sun in a daze, feeling that all my beliefs were exposed to the sun, and my heart was barren. Jiang Li, who had walked a few steps away, suddenly turned around: " Hey."
I looked back at him mechanically, and he said, "Who is that man surnamed Kang?"
I moved my lips with difficulty. He listened and nodded with a livid face.
I said, "He's my boyfriend."
"Sure enough." Jiang Li lowered his head and sneered, his eyes were filled with coldness, "As expected, I'm the stupidest. Heh, ridiculous."
"No, it's not like that, Jiang Li, don't say that, it's all my fault, it's my fault, and I should be punished." I couldn't bear the sad and hurt eyes of the boy anymore, I almost went crazy Clinging to the corner of his clothes, he begged bitterly, "Can you take the college entrance examination well? Don't think about it just because I cheated you, that's right, just treat me as a scum, it's not worth your grudges, and it's not worth ruining me because of me. Your future, or...or..." I will feel guilty and restless for the rest of my life.
My cheeks were wet, and there was a transparent liquid dripping on the back of my hand. It turned out that I was so guilty that I shed tears. Jiang Li gave me a cold look, unmoved by my crying, and pulled me away with all his strength. His clothes hand: "Let go of your dirty hands."
I let go slowly and lowered my head.
The immature voice of the young man above the head is still lingering in my ears: "Of course I won't delay my future because of a small person like you, but your police officer really takes yourself seriously, why? Think I will like you ? Heh, she doesn't even look in the mirror, an old woman with wrinkles on the verge of creeping up."
I was immersed in great depression. Before he left, his soft voice floated in, shaking people's hearts: "Fang Liangliang, I will not forgive you. No."
The boy walked farther and farther away, and the green back disappeared into the corner of the street. I suddenly stood in the sunlight, suddenly at a loss.
In the evening, I asked Shitou Dongzi out for a drink, and Shitou brought his girlfriend who was studying ballet with him. Sure enough, there was a cute dimple on the corner of his mouth. little girl.
Dongzi is unhappy, obviously he has something hidden in his heart, I am ashamed to say it, I only heard Li Fang talk about Dongzi's family affairs when I went back to the game today. It turns out that this guy seems to be naturally optimistic and heartless. Heavy, the fucking mental illness has dragged on for many years, but it still hasn't improved. There is an old grandmother at home, who has to bear the burden of the family at a young age, but Dongzi has never complained in front of me. He laughs every day and occasionally ghosts. Ma once showed a childish look, which made others dumbfounded.
I used to think this guy was as timid as a mouse, but today I have a new understanding of him, and I look at him differently.
There are many strong people around him, maybe Jiang Li can also be strong enough to face the darkness of human nature, until the day when he looks down on it.
Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, I can only comfort myself in this way.
Shitou was very excited because Brother Fei and I became popular two days ago, pouring me cup after cup: "Boss, I'm angry, you two are too disrespectful, and you don't ask me for arresting bad guys. Is the stone a brother?"
A big man whimpered when he was excited, and was about to cry. Seeing him losing his temper after drinking, his girlfriend stared and couldn't understand the situation, and asked repeatedly: "Shi Lei, Shi Lei, what's wrong with you?"
Shi Shi really shed two drops of tears from the boy, took off his glasses and wiped them with his sleeve, pursed his mouth: "Boss, they don't want me, they don't treat me as a brother anymore."
As I was talking, I started whimpering and wiping my sleeves again. The noise made my head hurt. I stretched out my hand and hit him on the head. The guy screamed in pain. Her girlfriend looked at me watery, showing Out of Jiao Didi's accusation.
I drank the beer in the glass, and I took the patience to teach: "How old are you, and you still want to fight, do you think it's a small fight in high school? They are all gangsters who are evil and desperadoes." , this time Feige and I almost put our lives on the line. I would never want to experience that scene for the second time. I’m not kidding. The older we are, the more we should cherish our lives. A flat life is the greatest happiness. As for those excitements and those joys, we experienced them a lot in high school, and they are worth the fare. Doing things at any age is the same principle, stop yelling."
I spoke sternly, and made the three young people in the room nod their heads in a daze. In fact, I only realized this truth recently. When I was young, I was rarely sober, and when I was an adult, it was rare to be confused. I got a realization along the way. Love while walking, this is probably the wonderful part of life.
Halfway through the meal, Dongzi left early for the next meal. Shitou’s girlfriend obediently peeled peanuts for him. I chatted with Shitou. Just calm down and listen to him.
"Boss, isn't the old principal of the high school you and Boss Jiang went to have the surname Yang?" He sneaked closer to me and waved his hand, "Boss, come here, I'll tell you an exclusive news."
The so-called don't listen to evil, when I heard the news of my most beloved old principal, I hesitated whether to listen or not, but after thinking about it, it would be best if he had a happy event, and maybe I could help After sharing it for him, I closed my ears and listened carefully.
"The thing is like this. Some time ago, a manager of my dad's restaurant just went to Macau for inspection. He was also a student of the old principal. He met Principal Yang in Macau."
"Principal Yang to gamble?"
"No, the manager thought the same way at first. Later, when he saw that the old headmaster was very haggard, he asked a local boss to ask. Guess what happened?"
"how?"
"Principal Yang's son went to Macau to gamble and owed a lot of money. Later, for some reason, he was kidnapped by the underworld and taken to Bangkok. Principal Yang ran to Macau and ran away without seeing anyone. on."
Feeling very strange, my heart sank, and I heard Shitou continue: "The manager asked someone to inquire, and said that his son lost 10 million in a bet, and asked usury to borrow money. The money he owed snowballed, almost reaching 3,000 Don't worry, alas, it's been several months, and I don't know if the person has been rescued, maybe it's not necessarily true, the principal of our school accidentally mentioned it last time, saying that he saw Principal Yang during the meeting, She was so skinny that she lost all her hair, probably from working hard for her son."
I took a sip of my wine and asked, "When did your manager meet the principal in Macau?"
Shitou lit a cigarette leisurely, chewed a handful of peanuts handed over by his girlfriend, and thought about it: "About February, the period just after the new year. I also heard that buddy casually mentioning it at the dinner party, so I didn't pay much attention to it. I mentioned it, and I just remembered to tell you, anyway, this matter has been in the past for a while, and it is probably resolved now."
Shitou and his girlfriend were discussing the crunchiness of the peanuts, and I took a sip of the wine absently, with a bad feeling in my heart. I don't believe that an ordinary old man like Principal Yang, who earns a dead salary, can come up with 30 million yuan. This astronomical sum, 30 million is not a small amount, and if you can’t pay it, you can’t just talk about it. If you have cramps, skin, and limbs, the underworld has plenty of ways to make you obediently try to get money and squeeze it like a vampire. Fuck every drop of your blood until there is no benefit to be gained. Once this person has anything to do with these vampires, his life will be rough.
I thought to myself, I only owed money in Macau, why was I tied up to Bangkok again? How could a teacher with a pure heart and asceticism deal with the underworld who yelled at every turn
Out of concern, I called Li Fang and asked him to help check whether Principal Yang's son had come back in the past few months. Hang up the phone.
Talking to Feige on the phone at night, and mentioning what happened to Principal Yang, Feige was also very anxious, but helpless.
In high school, she was also a frequent visitor to the principal's office. The last time she and I caused a big disaster because of stones, there was a lot of trouble, and teachers and students in several schools knew that there was a "black sheep" duo in No. She brought down a good student in A, her reputation was really bad, and the sports school almost didn’t want her. Brother Fei’s mother rushed to the school to plead for mercy. Unexpectedly, Principal Yang had already comforted the sports school teacher and assured Jiang Gefei again and again. The classmate has changed his past, and in the future he will surely bring glory to the sports cause of the motherland, so the teacher of the sports school gave up and finally did not drive Feige out of the house.
So Principal Yang can be regarded as a mutual benefactor of Brother Fei and I. We have only visited him twice in these years, just because he was too noisy when we were students, and when we are older, we will know how to feel ashamed. Then I was poked in the back by the past teacher: "Those are the two most arrogant girls in the school in the past ten years. Regardless of their appearance, they are all very well-behaved. They have a rebellious body. After three years of studying, all the teachers in the school have not slept for a few days. , a nightmarish existence, I am ashamed to come back!"
In the blink of an eye, things are different, and the students who caused troubles and fights have a bright future, but the old principal has such a tragic fate in his later years. It is really a good man who has no rewards. How can people not feel sorry
After hanging up the phone, I was still upset and irritable, beeping on the table and waiting for the man's call, but from nine o'clock to ten o'clock, the phone has been quiet, his call didn't arrive, my mother's chasing soul call came first .
"The son of a Chinese-American professor in your Uncle Alan's school will be on a business trip to City A in two days. If the young man doesn't know much Chinese, go and receive him."
"Mom, do foreigners come here without an interpreter? What can I do?"
"My old lady welcomes you as soon as I ask you to. What's the fuss?" My mother said, "Besides, he's not a foreigner. My mother has seen it before. He has black hair and skin, and he has an American accent." , Chinese taste is enough, mom told you, this young man has a successful career and good character, he graduated from Princeton, although he is short, but concentrated is the essence, mom liked it at first sight."
"Since you like it so much, then forget about kicking my Uncle Alan. Anyway, you still have the charm of an old lady, and you can go for a few injections of Botox to remove wrinkles. Maybe the American guy will fall in love with you." .”
"Fang Liangliang, don't talk to my old lady. Don't think that you can be at ease if my old lady is thousands of miles away from you. Let me tell you, there is no way! If you go this time, you will go, or if you don't go, you will go!"
"Mom, I've been busy recently, so I don't have time, why don't I find a friend to help with the reception?"
"Fang Liangliang, are you pretending to be confused for my old lady? Don't think about it. If you two are married, we don't have to be so far apart. Look, my mother is not familiar with her life and place in this damn place of Seattle, and she is here all year round. Yu, I can only make a phone call when I miss my daughter, shed two tears at every turn in the middle of the night, my mother is lonely and empty."
"Mom, how can you embarrass my Uncle Alan by saying this?"
"I don't care about his embarrassment. Let me ask you, Fang Liangliang, if you don't marry me, how will you make your mother embarrass? Huh? Leave your mother alone in the United States to live a miserable old age? My mother will shit and pee Raising you so big, you are not filial?"
"Mom, I don't..."
"Ah, unfilial girl, trying to piss off my old mother, what's the use of being so big? Why did you run out of the operating table in the first place? Unfilial, the evening scene is bleak, why did the unfilial girl come out? The stinking ditch... "
On the other end of the phone, my mother wailed and howled and rolled around, causing the old Alan to keep asking "what's wrong, honey, Are you OK". I have to be patient, but I don’t want to tell her too early that I have a man, according to my mother’s personality of saying that the wind is the rain, she will book the earliest plane ticket back to China as soon as I hang up the phone, thinking about my son-in-law crazy.
My mother's hypocritical yelling made me upset, so I had no choice but to surrender: "Okay, mom, don't worry, I'm Fang Liangliang the most filial, I'm going to see the head office, please stop yelling, be careful not to let Uncle Alan find out that you are not What an old oriental swan, but an old oriental shrew, I'm asleep, bye."
"Hey, wait, I haven't told you about Jush's flight yet?…"
Before my mother started a new round of nagging, I hung up the phone resolutely, breathed a sigh of relief, quiet, and at ease, I hid in my own hut, turned on a small orange light, and temporarily put aside Those worlds are chaotic, get a moment of peace and ease.
Thinking of Jiang Li, Lao Tan, the principal, and Dong Zi, the faces of those people flashed before my eyes one by one, and I had to admit that the impetuousness in my heart hadn't been suppressed, and they were ready to move, and I always felt that the illusion of calm would fade away in the next second. Instead, there are overwhelming stormy waves.
