Sheng Xinghe's home is actually quite far from their company, and it is neither a small one-bedroom apartment nor a location close to the subway entrance, which is completely different from what the two of them had dreamed of at the beginning.
The privacy and security of the real estate are very high. After entering the elevator by pressing your fingerprint, you can directly enter the door of the house, eliminating the need for the entry door.
The house was bought by Sheng Xinghe two or three years ago. It has not been long since it was renovated and officially moved in, so there is no trace of life.
Shu Jin thought, maybe they both thought about breaking up.
Just as he no longer went to the cinema after the breakup, Sheng Xinghe no longer chose the originally planned future, but chose a way more suitable for him, and tried his best to move forward in the direction of no longer having each other's lives.
"I went to get my driver's license a few years ago, and then I bought a car." Sheng Xinghe said, "When I planned to buy a house, the environment here was good, and the route to work was not congested, so I bought it."
Sheng Xinghe was able to drive, Shu Jin knew this, and nodded.
Seeing how awkward he was standing in an unfamiliar environment, Sheng Xinghe walked over and led the person to sit on the sofa, then said, "I'll pour you a glass of honey water."
"No need." Shu Jin grabbed the corner of his shirt, "I can drink very well now."
Sheng Xinghe raised his eyebrows and sat down, expressing doubt.
Shu Jin said: "When I just graduated, the company I joined was relatively small, and everyone had multiple roles. I am a newcomer, not only to design, but also to be the boss' assistant, and often accompany him to socialize. "
When Shu Jin talked about the past, it was something that Sheng Xinghe didn't know yet, "I've been drunk many times, I don't even remember how many times. Anyway, you were so easy to get drunk afterwards. Sometimes I would pretend to be drunk. Well, they can't tell the truth from the fake anyway."
It is common for newcomers to the workplace who have just entered the society after graduating from college to encounter such things.
Sheng Xinghe listened to him talk about the things that he had not participated in. Except for a trace of distress, he didn't feel pity for him. Shu Jin was also a strong person, and he was never a scumbag. The more you listen to him, the more you get to know him.
"I didn't dare to resign at that time." Shu Jin said, "Although the salary is not very high, it is enough for me to stabilize. And because the company has just started, the more things that come to my head, the more I can learn. , added a lot of points to my resume for later job-hopping."
Sheng Xinghe asked, "Why don't you dare to resign?"
He could hear that Shu Jin's topic was consciously opened up.
Shu Jin leaned his head on the back of the sofa, crossed his legs, and played with Sheng Xinghe's fingers: "I don't have money."
After saying these three words, Shu Jin felt embarrassed, and looked at him before continuing: "Actually, Shu Zhaoyuan left a sum of money for me when he went in, and I didn't move a cent."
Is it guilt
may be.
Shu Jin, who was only 19 years old at the time, could not draw the line between family affection and the law. He knew that Shu Zhaoyuan deserved what he deserved, but as long as he thought that the culprit that indirectly caused Shu Zhaoyuan's imprisonment was himself, he could not get rid of the torment of his conscience.
In that year, he seemed to owe the whole world.
All that he should pay back appeared that year.
In order to force him and Sheng Xinghe to break up, Shu Zhaoyuan suddenly told the truth. Shu Jin couldn't accept it. He thought about it paralyzed and let the secret continue. As long as Shu Zhaoyuan didn't tell it, Sheng Xinghe might never know.
But after meeting the person who had carried the blame for him for more than ten years at the barbecue shop, and seeing the frostbite on his hands, he couldn't continue.
Telling the truth is not easy. The news brought by Shu Jin subverted that person's cognition and caused quite a stir in the family.
The tens of thousands of dollars in compensation to the Sheng family was paid by Shu Zhaoyuan for them. The family has always been grateful to Dade. For a long time, they have worked for free in the factory without remuneration, but the high medical expenses are also unbearable for them. light.
The fact that Shu Zhaoyuan took the initiative to compensate the poor workers and subsidized the victim Sheng Xinghe has attracted the attention of the government in the end. Whenever Shu Zhaoyuan is commended, it is the time when the family suffers conscience condemnation. Even if they had to go to a foreign land in the end, they often bought things and sent them to Sheng's family, and they would visit them on New Year's and holidays.
Because of that incident, the family paid a lot.
Shu Jin just wanted to make amends.
He took out all the money he had saved over the years to treat the family's sick mother, and he continued to support them all these years, but at that time he never thought that after the family learned the truth, they would report Shu Zhaoyuan as illegal. operate.
Perhaps at the beginning, as Shu Zhaoyuan said, he had to let others take the blame and reduce the compensation because of financial difficulties, but this was only the first thing he did to corrupt morality.
But after his "good deeds" were taken seriously, everything deteriorated.
After he tasted the sweetness, he continued to fund Sheng Xinghe, and was continuously supported by the government as a "charitable entrepreneur". He used this status to grow and usher in a boom in business.
Human hearts are incomparable.
The family that has been wronged in the first place sees that the better the culprit is, the harder it is to control the anger in their hearts. The family mastered a lot of secrets from the beginning of Shu Zhaoyuan's career, and in a fit of rage, they all submitted them to the inspection agency.
Shu Jin's so-called compensation was just wishful thinking. Just when he first started to correct the matter, and just a month after he and Sheng Xinghe confessed the truth, Shu Zhaoyuan was officially detained for examination.
Shu Jin did nothing.
"Correction" doesn't exist in this kind of love-hate entanglement, everything is caused by him, he can't control or reverse it, so when Sheng Xinghe came to him, he couldn't answer the sentence "Have you ever loved me? ".
At that time, Shu Zhaoyuan didn't know the reason, but when they met each other on a narrow road, only then did he know what Shu Jin had done back then.
The money he left was legitimate income. The reason why Shu Jin did not move was because of guilt, not filial piety. He wanted to keep his father and make a comeback. Don't even care about family for a man.
In the winter, Shu Jin's forehead wound has not healed yet, but fortunately, it is not big at all, with shallow marks.
Sheng Xinghe had seen it long ago. Maybe he knew how the wound came from when he was in the hospital, but he didn't ask anything, giving Shu Jin a chance to confess.
After saying these words, Shu Jin was a little tired.
Maybe it was because he was drunk, or maybe it took too long to say these words, his body leaning on the sofa was getting softer and weaker, and his eyelids were barely open due to exhaustion.
Sheng Xinghe stroked the wound with his thumb and asked, "Why didn't you tell me these things before?"
Shu Jin was quiet for a while before telling him, "I don't want you to know... Those warmth are fake."
There is no one else in Sheng Xinghe's family.
Shu Zhaoyuan brought him to Shu's house and took care of him, so even if he was unwilling to appear in an interview in the newspaper, he would agree to Shu Zhaoyuan's request. For a while, Sheng Xinghe showed Shu Zhaoyuan an admiration that even Shu Jin had never seen before. As Sheng Xinghe said before, Shu Zhaoyuan once played the role of his "father".
"For you, it's too much for him to hide the facts and lie to you for so many years. I don't want you to find out that even his guilt and compensation are fake." After Shu Jin finished speaking, he laughed at himself, "Brother, I Isn't it very virgin? I just think that we have all broken up anyway, and we can't be together anymore, so it's good for you to keep some good things."
In fact, Shu Jin still saved some money, and planned to transfer it to Sheng Xinghe if there was a chance, but seeing that the other party was developing better and better, he knew that no matter how much he expressed, it was nothing but hypocritical.
Of course, if he didn't dare to say this, Sheng Xinghe would be angry.
Sheng Xinghe was silent for a long time.
Shu Jin was a little flustered, so when he raised his head to meet Sheng Xinghe's gaze, he subconsciously jumped in his heart and turned his face away.
"Why don't you look at me?" Sheng Xinghe pulled his hand across his face, his eyes burning, "You are so thorough and consider everything, why don't you dare to look at me?"
Oops.
Shu Jin secretly said that it was not good.
"say."
Shu Jin breathed a little faster and whispered, "I didn't…"
"Shu Jin." Sheng Xinghe loosened his chin, stood up and looked at him condescendingly, "No one will like your thoughtfulness, and no one likes your self-sacrifice! You want to correct your mistakes to compensate the family, do Right, fine, but I don't need it."
After speaking, Sheng Xinghe turned around coldly and left the living room.
Shu Jin sat on the sofa in astonishment. He didn't expect him to react like this. After a while, tears fell from his eyes.
A few minutes later, he suddenly got up from the sofa, not even wearing slippers, so he went to look for Sheng Xinghe with his bare feet. This house is very big, with several rooms, Shu Jin pushed open two doors in a row, but couldn't find Sheng Xinghe.
Did he piss people off
Shu Jin became more and more flustered. He didn't come to mess up this time. He came to seek reconciliation. He had been developing very well before, so why did it suddenly happen
When I came to the last room, the messy clothes fell on the floor.
The room was quite big, it looked like the master bedroom, and there was the sound of rushing water from the bathroom.
Shu Jin held back her tears, pushed open the bathroom door without thinking, and rushed in, hugging Sheng Xinghe's waist.
The hot water drenched Shu Jin's whole body in a blink of an eye, and even his sweater was soaked through.
Sheng Xinghe didn't plan to talk to him. After letting the water soak for a while, he turned around and pushed the person against the wall for a deep kiss.
Shu Jin's body softened from being kissed, and after choking on a few saliva, Sheng Xinghe stripped him off on the spot, pinched Shu Jin's face mercilessly with his fingers, and said bitterly, "Look at me!"
Both of them were embarrassed. After Shu Jin wet his hair, water continued to flow down his hair and body.
Sheng Xinghe's nose and eyelashes were dripping continuously, and his gray eyes were also soaked, looking like broken glass balls.
Shu Jin was gasping for breath, his face was pinched in pain, so there was a mist of water in his red eyes.
He looked at Sheng Xinghe for a moment, at the eye that had been destroyed in his hands. It was the first time he stared at it so directly that his teeth chattered.
"Okay." Sheng Xinghe gritted his teeth, "You did this eye, but I don't want you to compensate, and I don't want you to compensate, let alone arrange my life experience for me!"
Shu Jin's body trembled, and tears fell heavily.
Sheng Xinghe seemed to want to engrave words into Shu Jin's mind: "what's 'we broke up anyway, we won't be together again', that's just what you think, I never thought that way, I don't want to keep what you think is better There is only one thing I want to keep, and that is you."
Shu Jin cried and nodded desperately: "I know, I know now!"
Sheng Xinghe gradually calmed down, let go of his face, and rubbed his lips with his thumb, his voice was hoarse: "...so you can look at it, you can look at it with plain and normal eyes."
"It's part of me."
"It is also Sheng Xinghe."
Shu Jin wrapped his arms around the neck of the person in front of him, and was forced to stare at the gray pupil. He still couldn't control his trembling, but he persisted.
Before Sheng Xinghe was about to speak, Shu Jin raised his hand and stroked his right eye, feeling the temperature of his eyelid softly.
The hot water was rushing, and Shu Jin's cold hands became hot.
He pulled Sheng Xinghe down a bit, put on soft lips, and sealed it with a kiss.
