The sky was gloomy gray.
Cheng Chu sat blankly at the table, looking at the thin rain curtain outside the window.
The door was knocked lightly twice, and Mrs. Song's voice came from outside: "Madam, lawyer Zhou is here."
Hearing the voice, Cheng Chu was stunned for a long time before she could react. She lowered her eyes to cover her bloodshot eyes, raised her hands tiredly to straighten her wrinkled clothes, and whispered, "Please come in."
Attorney Zhou entered the room at the suggestion of Song's Wife. He was carrying a briefcase, wearing a straight suit, his hair was meticulously combed, and he exuded a bit of an elite temperament in his gestures.
"Mrs. Gu, hello."
There was a pleasant aroma in the room, a cool, slightly bitter fragrance.
The haggard doesn't seem to detract from Cheng Chu's beauty. Her peach blossom eyes with slight bloodshot eyes, pale cheeks, and even a few strands of broken hair on her forehead, on the contrary, her originally bright and compelling appearance has been brought on. Point Chu Chu poor taste.
This is the first time Zhou Zhong has seen this Mrs. Gu, but with just one glance, he suddenly understands that Mr. Gu's paranoid and crazy thoughts towards her.
"My condolences, Mrs. Gu." Zhou Zhong pursed his lips and whispered.
Cheng Chu suppressed the strong grief in her heart and said softly, "Thank you, Attorney Zhou." Rubbing her eyebrows wearily, she continued, "I don't know what you are doing here today?"
The sleepless nights pushed Cheng Chu's nearly collapsed nerves to the edge of the cliff. At this moment, she just wanted to sleep, even for a few hours.
But when Cheng Chu was lying on the soft bed, the swirling thoughts swept her heart like a rainstorm outside the window.
As her vision gradually blurred, she thought of what lawyer Zhou said: "Mr. Gu made a will before his death. If he dies unexpectedly, all the assets will be placed in your name."
Why? Why be so nice to her? The tears in Cheng Chu's eyes finally couldn't help falling, and the tense strings in her heart were broken by the sudden news. She whimpered a few times, and finally burst into tears.
The torrential rain outside the window blew and crackled the window.
Cheng Chu closed his eyes tightly, but tears continued to seep from the corners of his eyes and flowed into the smooth silk pillowcase.
In her trance, she suddenly thought of the car accident.
It was also such a rainy day.
That rainy night, the street was cold and desolate, and the faint street lamps could only illuminate the side of the street.
The two of them were sitting in the car, politely and distantly sitting on both ends, as if the border between the Chu River and the Han Dynasty was in the middle.
Suddenly, a dazzling beam of lights flashed, and before she could react, she was tightly held in her arms by Gu Miao.
He was so powerful that he seemed to have used up all his strength to protect her under him desperately.
Cheng Chu only felt that his shoulders were hurting, and his feet were being pressed by something, a heart-piercing feeling.
The headlights illuminated the entire road, she raised her eyes enduring the pain, and saw Gu Miao's dark and deep eyes.
The bright red blood slowly slid down his forehead, and the usually cold and pale face was now covered with blood. But he didn't seem to notice it at all, looking at her without blinking, as if to carve her into his soul.
"Don't be afraid, Chu Chu."
In that fiery embrace that seemed to melt people, Cheng Chu could clearly hear his hoarse voice.
This was the first time he called her Chu Chu.
But also the last time.
The blood dripping from Gu Miao's forehead fell on her face with scalding warmth.
At the end of the memory, his voice was hoarse and broken, as if using the last of his life to say to her: "I love you."
Like a decision.
Cheng Chu originally thought that the two of them were just a commercial marriage in name only. Under the coercion and lure of their father, the two got the certificate after only meeting a few times.
After they got married, although they lived in the same house, they usually just nodded as if they had met their neighbors.
Cheng Chu did not expect that when danger came, Gu Miao would protect himself so resolutely and even put his life aside.
Did he say he loves her? When did that start
They have been married for two months, and they have known each other for only three months.
When they first met, she said to Gu Miao bluntly: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, I already have someone I like."
The night light by the bed was on, emitting a warm yellow glow.
Cheng Chu got up, followed the light to find the slippers, put them on in a hurry, and went out of the room.
The window in the hallway was left with a small slit, letting in some cool wind.
Cheng Chu shivered uncontrollably, and stepped up to the door at the end of the corridor.
It was Gu Miao's room.
Her mind that had been in a trance for a few days seemed to be awakened by the cold wind, her heart was beating wildly, and the blood seemed to be flowing wildly in her body.
Step by step into the tightly closed door, she twisted the door with slight force.
The room is decorated with gray and white as the keynote, cold and abstinence, just like Gu Miao's feeling.
There were several papers neatly arranged on the desk, a dark brown frame with a beautiful landscape shot, and nothing else.
Cheng Chu didn't know why she came to his room so impulsive, maybe it was because of the feeling of shame and regret in her heart, which made her want to know what kind of person he was.
After all, she didn't know anything about him.
Cheng Chu reached out and opened the drawer under the desk, only to find a full of work documents, she turned around and flipped through the small drawer embedded in the bookshelf, and finally found a photo album.
This album seems to be a little old, and the dark black cover has faded, but the owner obviously cherishes it very much, and even the sturdy four corners are covered with protective kraft paper.
Cheng Chu opened the album impatiently, but the photos inside made her fingers tremble uncontrollably.
is her photo. To be precise, she was in high school.
The girl in the photo is sitting on a piano chair with a bright spotlight in the background. She is bowing her head slightly and playing the piano with concentration.
When was this taken
Cheng Chu couldn't help but took the photo out of the album and looked at it carefully, but found a line of words written on the back.
Chu Chu's first performance.
She felt sour in her heart, sniffed, and put the photo into the album.
Continuing to scroll back, the protagonists of these photos are all hers.
She is eating, she is laughing with her classmates, and she is concentrating on studying.
Almost throughout his high school career.
But these were obviously not candid shots. In a few photos, she even looked at the camera with a smile on her face.
Where did these photos come from
She resisted her doubts and continued to flip back. At the end of the photo album, there were two group graduation photos of the class. Class three and two in high school, class three in high school.
The third and second class of high school is Cheng Chu's class. She quickly found her place in the photo, standing on the edge of the last row, a girl with a slight smile.
But there is no her in the third class of high school
Cheng Chu took out the two graduation photos and turned them to the back.
After having her graduation photo, it says "Happy Graduation"
As for the one without her, a black pen was used to write a line of words solemnly.
"I really want to take a graduation photo with you"
Could it be that there is him in that class 3 graduation photo
Cheng Chu's heart had already set off a storm, and the hand holding the photo was trembling. She carefully searched for Gu Miao's figure on the photo, but found that there was none.
how come
This time, she looked up from the first row, one by one, and finally found him on the edge of the last row.
He is completely different from now. In the photo, he wears dull black-rimmed glasses, long bangs cover his forehead, and the smile on the corners of his mouth is a bit reluctant, exuding a gloomy and decadent look all over his body. temperament.
Cheng Chu remembered that there was a rule in Haishi No. 1 Middle School. During the second year of high school, the key class and the ordinary class implemented a policy of mobility. As long as the students who did not pass the key class exams were poor, they would be exiled to the ordinary class. Opportunity to enter key classes.
She once thought that she was ill and missed the exam and was exiled to the third class because she lost her grades, but she performed well in the exam after that, so she returned to her original class smoothly.
But during the half semester of studying in Class 3, she never paid attention to Gu Miao, or to be more precise, she didn't even know there was such a person.
Maybe at that time, he was right to himself...
Cheng Chu only felt sour in her eyes. She stared blankly at the line of words after the graduation photo, and only felt that her heart hurt as if she had been stabbed by countless needles.
There were light footsteps outside the door, and Sister Song knocked on the door tentatively: "Madam, are you inside?"
Cheng Chu covered his eyes a few times and said, "It's me."
"Hey, ma'am, you haven't slept for a few days. How can you survive like this? If your husband knew, he would be sad."
Speaking of Gu Miao, Cheng Chu only felt that her heart was even more uncomfortable. Tears poured out of her eyes desperately. She wiped her wet eyes with the back of her hands and said, "Sister Song, go to sleep first, I will clean up. things, and sleep in a while."
Sister Song couldn't say anything else, so she sighed and went back to the room.
The room returned to calm, Cheng Chu carefully hugged the album in his arms, propped up on the floor, and stood up with all his might.
But as soon as she got up, her heart was beating like crazy, her eyes were black, and all the strength in her body seemed to be taken away in an instant, and in the next second, she fell to the ground with a bang.
The world seemed to be plunged into endless darkness.
"Miss, Miss, wake up, I'm late for class."
Cheng Chu grunted a few times in dissatisfaction, and reluctantly opened his eyes.
A middle-aged woman was standing by the bed, looking at her with concern.
"Aunt Zhao?" Isn't this the nanny who took care of her in high school
"Hey, I'm ready for breakfast, you can get up and eat quickly." Aunt Zhao saw that she was awake and went out the door with confidence.
Cheng Chu looked at the room, the light blue wallpaper, the white princess bed, the wind chimes strung with crystals hung on the windowsill, and the bright sunlight shone on the crystals, reflecting dazzling light.
This is the house her dad bought her next to the school when she was in high school.
Didn't she faint in Gu Miao's room? How can it be here
Cheng Chu got out of bed and walked into the bathroom. The girl in the mirror was fair-skinned, her jet-black hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and her slightly raised peach-blossom eyes were shining brightly.
This is her in high school.
Cheng Chu stared blankly at his slightly immature face in the mirror, and ruthlessly reached out and twisted his hand.
"hiss."
There was a real pain in her arm, and she subconsciously frowned, but the joy in her heart was like a burning flame, burning her cold and desperate heart.
God gave her the opportunity to come back together, and this time, she will seize it firmly.
