Eternal Burning - Chapter 50

[Chapter 50 I Like Incomplete Beauty]

When Shen Luoyu opened the door for me and found me “standing” at the door of his house, her expression was as if she saw a large check with her name written on the road dancing ballet – in shock there was a little incredible, extremely suspicious He didn’t wake up, and at the same time began to recall the last time he was drunk.

She stared, and didn’t move for a long time, as if the machine was down.

I’ve been through too many scenes like this this week, and I’m already very skilled. I don’t speak, just smile and let her digest it by herself.

“What’s the matter, who is it?” Shen Luoyu was silent for a long time, and her aunt came out to check, and saw me through Shen Luoyu, holding the spatula and pinning it directly, the mother and daughter both went down.

“Mom, you… pinch me.” Shen Luoyu kept his eyes on me and stretched his hand to the back.

The aunt came slowly, clutching her chest, grabbed Shen Luoyu’s arm and pulled the person to the side, and then shoved the spatula in her hand.

“Xiaojie, you…” Auntie looked me up and down, with tears in her eyes quickly, “Can you stand up now?”

I raised one foot to show her, “Exoskeleton.”

The aunt looked dazed, obviously not knowing what it was.

“A mechanical device that helps me stand up,” I explained to her further.

“Oh.” She nodded knowingly, looked me up and down again with relief, and came over to give me a big hug.

“I’m so proud of you.” She hugged me and said with a choked voice, “Whether it was before you turned 20 or in the past ten years, you have always been a good child who made aunt proud.”

Because her husband died early , My aunt had to take care of the eldest child alone. She opened a restaurant and transported in her early years, and suffered a lot. Simply Shen Luoyu also strives to live up to her expectations, knowing that her mother is working hard, she never needs to worry about her. Since I was a child, my grades cannot be said to be top, but it has always been among the best. After graduating from university, I entered the design institute and worked steadily all the way, and now I am qualified to take apprentices.

The characters of their mother and daughter are both independent and independent, and the type of work is unrestrained. Even at the time of my accident, my aunt would cry forbearance when she wanted to cry. She never showed sadness in front of me. Every time I came to the hospital bed, I could only guess through her red and swollen eyes that she had cried again. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the first time I have seen her cry in so many years.

It seems that I am happy for me, and it seems that I can finally vent the sadness that has been suppressed for more than ten years.

Aunt specially asked Shen Luoyu to go downstairs to buy two cooked vegetables and a bottle of beer to celebrate for me. I drove the car and naturally couldn’t drink. She is not in good health, so I asked her to drink less.

Finally, my aunt had a drink, and the rest went to Shen Luoyu’s stomach.

Talking about the origin of the exoskeleton at the dinner table, Shen Luoyu said with infinite emotion: “This company is so good, if you don’t need a penny for a million equipment, I will let you cooperate and provide feedback. When the father of Party A builds a house, it can also be I’ll go in and try it for seventy years for free?” My

aunt poked Shen Luoyu’s forehead and reprimanded, “Who’s your father?”

“What father? Where did you get your father? Mom, you heard it wrong.” Shen Luoyu quickly changed her words. Lying without changing face.

When I saw their mother and daughter get along so harmoniously, I couldn’t help but envy in my heart. My parents and I are afraid that we will never be able to do this for a lifetime.

When I was about to finish dinner, I suddenly received a text message from He Weizhou, asking if I was at home or not, saying that he wanted to come over and return my record.

I told him that he might not be home until eight or nine o’clock, so he didn’t have to rush to pay it back, otherwise he could just send it to me. The original intention was to hope that he could pay it back another day, but I don’t know if he didn’t hear my subtext, and immediately said that it would be nine o’clock. If I didn’t get home, he would wait for me at the door for a while.

I looked at the time, it was already more than seven o’clock, and it was almost time to go back now.

Sighing lightly, I had to stand up and say goodbye to my aunts and the others.

“I’m leaving now?” My aunt had a drink and was in high spirits, and urged me to sit for a while longer.

“No, my friend will come to my house later, I have to rush back.” I walked slowly to the door and told her to stop. Seeing that she could not persuade me, she had to give up and instead told me to be careful on the road.

“I’ll take you down.” Shen Luoyu took the key and went out with me.

Entering the elevator, Shen Luoyu and I were the only two left, and she started the usual theme.

“You haven’t contacted your parents since the Chinese New Year, right?”

“Well, I haven’t had time.” After all

, this cold war has been going on for almost half a year. I also thought about breaking the deadlock, but I was afraid it would end in a tired quarrel again. Just dragging on day by day, I don’t know when it will be a head.

“Aren’t you going to tell them the good news?” Shen Luoyu asked.

I didn’t answer right away and stayed silent until the elevator reached the first floor.

“Do you think they would care?” The elevator door opened, and Shen Luoyu and I walked out together.

She turned her head back in surprise: “What nonsense you are talking about, of course they care.”

Seeing that I didn’t speak, she continued: “Aunt and aunt still care about you, Beidou. They may be stubborn and conservative in every way, but The starting point of what they do is still for your own good. Of course, I know that this kind of ‘for your own good’ care is very suffocating. But…” She paused and said with deep emotion, “There are not many people in this world who care. Whether we are good or bad, most of our relationships are broken. There is someone who thinks about you, even if you don’t need it, even if it is nosy, I think it is sweet trouble.”

“Sweet trouble?” I chewed this A few words, it is really difficult to integrate such a optimistic idea into oneself.

Shen Luoyu said: “Look, there are people in this world who say ‘even if the flood floods the sky after I die’, and there are people like my mother who were unfounded and worried that she would be alone in a hundred years and become an orphan. If you argue, then the two sides will There are a lot of points that can be played and criticized, but life is not a debate competition, why do you have to score a right or wrong?”

I nodded and told her, “I see, I’ll call my mother in a while.”

Sometimes I’m also very embarrassed, and I always let my aunts and the others be sandwiched between me and my parents and do our jobs. Mediator, Lubricant.

These words of Shen Luoyu are of course intended to reconcile me and my parents faster, but from my parents’ point of view, they have indeed done what they can, and they have never treated me badly. Maybe I should really look at it with a more optimistic attitude. question.

When he got home, He Weizhou hadn’t arrived yet. One day away, the power of the exoskeleton had bottomed out, so I took off the device to charge it and got back into the wheelchair.

I don’t know if He Weizhou will stay for a long time. Just in case, I went to the kitchen to boil a pot of tea water.

There were still a lot of lights on in the opposite building at this time. The floor facing me, the windows of 1102 were completely dark, and it was impossible to tell whether Shang Muxiao was not at home or simply did not turn on the lights.

These days, when I see him, I will ask for the bank card number, but he always excuses it for various reasons, which once made me have the illusion of “who owes whom money”.

I began to suspect that he wasn’t really in a hurry to get my money back, he was just enjoying the teasing and embarrassment of me. Just like when he made a bet with Zhou Yanyi to chase me, the superficial reason is not important, the essence is to make fun of me.

Press the boil water button, and the doorbell rang at this time.

I ran to open the door, He Weizhou stood at the door and smiled at me.

“I’m sorry to disturb you so late.”

It was really disturbing. But he has come, and I am not good at chasing him.

“No. You sit for a while, and I’ll pour you a cup of tea.”

He Weizhou changed his shoes and went into the house, put the record on the coffee table, instead of sitting down, he followed me to the kitchen.

“Did you go to the party tonight?” He leaned against the door, looking like he was talking to me at home.

I found the tea tin, and while waiting for the water to boil, I said, “I went to see my aunt. Unfortunately, the equipment is out of power this time. Next time I have a chance, I will show you how I am walking.” There was

a long silence behind me . Looking back, he saw that the other party’s face was full of astonishment.

I thought he didn’t understand and misunderstood what medical miracle had happened to me, so I quickly added: “The mechanical exoskeleton, similar to a high-tech prosthesis, can last for 14 hours, so I can stop using a wheelchair during the day. ”

He opened his mouth and put down his hands around his chest, looking a little caught off guard.

“That…that’s great,” he said.

I vaguely feel that he is a little strange, but I can’t say why.

The hot water boiled quickly. After I made the tea, I turned around and was terrified by He Weizhou who came behind me at some point.

When his hands trembled, the tea spilled out, scalding his fingers. I gasped in pain, unable to hold the cup any longer, the whole cup of tea overturned, and most of the tea fell onto my lap, and the glass shattered on the ground.

“Ah! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, are you alright?” He Weizhou hurriedly grabbed a tissue and sucked the water off my pants for me.

Most of the hot water was splashed on the knees and flowed down the pants to the calves. Although I didn’t feel it, with common sense, I should quickly lower the skin temperature now to prevent the heat from continuing to accumulate.

“I’ll just do it myself.” Blocking his hand, I planned to go to the bathroom to flush the water.

“Let me handle it for you.” He Weizhou squatted down and couldn’t help but say that he wanted to roll up my trouser legs.

Even when I was dating Shang Muxiao, I didn’t let him see these legs, and now I won’t let He Weizhou see it.

I grabbed his hand and said in a low voice, “No need, get out of the way first, and I’ll take care of it in the bathroom myself.”

He Weizhou raised his head with a strange expression, something I’ve never seen on his face. Infinitely close to the “crazy” emotion.

He half-knelt on the ground, looked up at me and said, “Beida, can’t you really see it? I like you, and I’m pursuing you.”

I was stunned for a moment, caught off guard by his words.

“I…”

No, I didn’t see it. But Shang Muxiao could see it. Is it really because he said that I don’t have the eyes to see people?

I sorted out the language and politely declined: “Thank you for your liking. But I just ended a relationship and I haven’t fully recovered. At present… I don’t plan to start a new relationship so soon.” In the

living room, my phone suddenly rang frantically. .

“I’m different from other people. I will never find you troublesome, and I’m happy to take care of you. More importantly, what I like is your incomplete appearance. Beijiao, you are so perfect.” He Weizhou said Gently stroked my leg through the fabric, like stroking a beautiful work of art.

I immediately stood upside down with hair on my back, and it felt creepy.

Stiffening my body, I tentatively asked, “You… like the way I look in a wheelchair?”

I thought of a crowd, very similar to He Weizhou.

The phones in the living room kept going one after another for a long time, but I really couldn’t care about them at the moment, so I could only let them ring.

“Mu Can is not a pervert, we are just different from the mainstream public aesthetics.” He Weizhou obviously knew what I was thinking, and generously admitted, “I like incomplete beauty, just like some people like tragedy, some people are obsessed with the feeling of being whipped. Don’t worry, I don’t artificially create imperfections to my liking, that’s not beauty. Beauty comes naturally, just like you.”

I couldn’t tell for a moment whether I should be honored or absurd.

The situation was not good for me, so I didn’t want to irritate him, so I had no choice but to say: “In this way, you give me some time first. You suddenly told me this, I… I want to think about it, after all, it is also a major event in life.”

He stared at After a long while, I lowered my eyes again, as if I didn’t understand what I said at all.

“Can I handle the burn for you?” He took care of himself and rolled up my trouser legs a little.

As long as it doesn’t hurt others or violate the law, whether it’s aesthetics or sexuality, it’s all personal freedom.

But his behavior now is no different from sexual harassment.

“Don’t do this…” I felt powerless.

I never imagined that one day I would experience something like this in my own home. Or being treated as a friend…

Am I really living in an ivory tower for a long time, ignorant of the sinister nature of people?

“Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you…” His trousers were rolled up to his knees, He Weizhou stared at my legs, his whole face lit up.

There is nothing around that can be used as a weapon, and the mobile phone no longer makes a sound in the living room.

I closed my eyes and felt a sense of despair in my heart.

His fingers touched my thighs, I should have no feeling, but maybe I was too resistant, and I trembled involuntarily.

And almost at the same second, the sound of the electronic lock being unlocked came from the door.

He Weizhou paused for a moment, and before he could react, he was pulled by the back collar of Shang Muxiao who rushed in, and fell to the ground.
