Chapter 48
He smiled a little self-deprecatingly and looked up at the sky.
It is dark early in winter. At this time, the light is already very dark. Pieces of snowflakes drift down on the ground. Large pieces, only for a night, must be a white world.
The memory also drifted away with the flickering snow.
More than three years ago, Lin Zhihua graduated from Stanford graduate school.
At that time, he had another good plan. The scale of the company he founded during his postgraduate period had just taken shape.
Lin mother made a phone call and Lin’s building will fall, Lin’s grandfather fell ill, Lin Changji and other companies holding Lin’s “Lin family” plan how to spend more money before Lin’s fall.
Lin Zhihua sat down all night, thinking a lot, thinking of his escape from abroad because of “physical problems”, thinking of Lin’s family, and thinking of the elite education arranged by the old man when he was a child …
Finally, he sold the newly formed company and returned home with a batch of funds.
At that time, Lin Lin had a gap with him, but there was no resentment.
Lin Zhihua still remembers what he said at the beginning: I took Lin’s, but from today, Lin’s Lin is Lin Lin’s Lin.
Then there were more than three years of drastic rectifications and adjustments, and Lin was refreshed and prosperous.
He knew that his body was okay, it was a psychological problem.
But what does that matter?
He never felt that humans need to put the first instinct of animals first, and he is not interested in women, so there is no need to be interested.
Father Lin, his parents, and everyone around him tried to plan a route for him.
Once you do not follow the plan, you will do something that hurts you under the banner of “for you”.
Many people may succumb to the “force” of their parents wrapped in the “love” flag.
But Lin Zhihua is impossible.
He Lin Zhihua can only choose, can not be persecuted.
His own life is naturally decided by himself.
The snow was heavy. Lin Zhihua stood for a while, his shoulders were white.
The pale fingers were slightly reddish and became cold in the cold.
Should n’t he be back?
The thought had just risen, Lin Zhihua smiled softly, as if thinking of something, his eyebrows smiled. In an instant, the man who seemed to be integrated with snowflakes returned to reality, and the surroundings became warmer.
Lin Zhihua took out his mobile phone, opened an interface that read “Zhao Zhe”, bowed his head and kissed it gently.
If you don’t come back, then I won’t meet you.
——
Chengjia.
To be honest, Gu Xuezhao really didn’t want to eat this meal. An old lady, Bai Xiumei, who had long seen her as unpleasant, had a mother-daughter who hated her …
Most of this family is not very welcome to her.
“Happy New Year, Mom and Dad!” Cheng Shuo said with a smile, then Li Sitong handed over the gift.
“Happy New Year, Mom and Dad!” Li Sitong finished and glanced at Xuezhao, “Mingze, Zizhao, come and wish grandpa and grandma!”
“Grandparents and Happy New Year!” Cheng Mingze smiled.
“Tongle Tongle!” Master Cheng and Bai Xiumei smiled and handed out a red envelope.
“Grandparents and Happy New Year.” Xue Zhe also said with a smile.
“Happy Happy New Year!” Bai Xiumei spoke before the grandfather, still smiling, as if treating her no differently from her grandchildren and handing a red envelope.
Xue Jiao took it and laughed more happily.
Not bad, quite thick.
“Ming Jiao, come and give your uncle and aunt a happy new year!” Cheng Kai looked at Cheng Mingjiao.
She didn’t pay attention to Cheng Mingjiao for a while, she looked very haggard, she also lost a lot of weight, and she didn’t look good.
In the past, if you had a seven-point beauty and a nine-point dress, now you have only five points in this haggard look.
Her eyes also looked strange.
“Uncle, Auntie, Happy New Year.” The sound sounded normal.
Cheng Shuo smiled and handed her a red envelope. She was worried. “Why did Ming Jiao lose so much? You didn’t want to take you last year before.”
In the past years, Gu Xuejiao looked like Li Sitong was not allowed to meet her last year. Cheng Mingjiao would ask to follow up with last year. Cheng Shuo also brought it with him every time, but this year, she did not take the initiative.
“It’s okay, Ming Jiao didn’t take the exam well at the end of the semester, and she lost weight in a bad mood.” Liu Yazhen smiled far-fetched.
“Ming Jiao, try harder if you haven’t taken the exam well. Don’t worry, just fail the exam once. You still have a chance in the future. Come on next time.” Master Cheng also said worriedly.
Cheng Mingjiao didn’t speak, Liu Yazhen bumped her, and she nodded.
Xue Jiao narrowed his eyes a little, and looked at Cheng Mingjiao, who didn’t raise his head.
Why does Cheng Mingjiao seem a little wrong?
It seemed that by the end of last semester, she had been very silent, no one was in trouble, and Xue Zuo didn’t care about her. Seeing it suddenly today, how is Cheng Mingjiao like this now?
Liu Yazhen is also very strange. When Xue Jiao visited New Year, the other party quickly returned a red envelope, which looked like the irony and mocking from time to time.
Look carefully at her fundus, even with heavy makeup, you can see the tired state, the eyes are dark blue.
Soon, the New Year’s Eve dinner was brought up, and Xue Zhe took back his doubtful eyes.
The meal was calm, but Liu Yazhen’s mother and daughter were quiet, and the atmosphere at the table was harmonious.
“By the way, aren’t Mingze and Zizhao the finals to compete in the new year?” Master Cheng suddenly asked.
“Well, the last game in March,” Cheng Mingze replied.
Mr. Cheng smiled: “Hahaha, good! Mingze strives to be sent to the university he wants to go to, so is Zizhao!”
“Thank you grandpa.” Cheng Mingze smiled slyly.
Mr. Cheng raised his cup and stood up: “Come on, let’s congratulate Mingze and Zizhao and Mingyu for achieving the first grade in the last semester. By the way, I wish Mingze and Zizuo get good results in the first year! Mingjiao also cheer, The new year will catch up with the results. “
Everyone smiled and lifted the cup to stand up. Even Cheng Mingyu, who was not yet in his grades, stood up holding the cup, leaving Cheng Mingjiao alone.
Liu Yazhen pinched her and Cheng Mingjiao stood up.
The old man frowned slightly.
“Come! Cheers!” Cheng Shuo played round.
“Bang–” Cheng Mingjiao’s cup hit the ground and shattered into pieces.
“Small and safe, every year is safe.” Bai Xiumei said quickly.
Cheng Mingjiao looked up, pointing at Gu Xuejiao’s expression: “She’s surnamed Gu! Why is it in our house! Get out! Get out of our house! Get out of my life!”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, as if they were wrong.
“Ming Jiao! Ming Jiao!” Liu Yazhen quickly hugged Cheng Mingjiao, patting the back of her hand, patting comfortably.
“Gu Xuezhao! Why don’t you die !!”
“Cheng Mingjiao!” The old man suddenly became furious, and Cheng Shuo and Cheng Mingze also frowned.
On the contrary, Xue Jia, who was scolded, was slightly puzzled, Cheng Mingjiao … seemed to be mentally wrong?
“Cheng Mingjiao, what do you say!” Cheng Kai stared at her.
“Mom and dad! Don’t force Ming Jiao anymore!” Liu Yazhen suddenly cried while holding Cheng Ming Jiao, “Ming Jiao got depression.”
“What ?!” Cheng Kai’s cup fell to the ground, his face shocked.
“What’s going on?” Master Cheng also began to worry.
Cheng Mingjiao is the child of the Cheng family, and the granddaughter they watched grow up. This suddenly became like this, and everyone was worried.
Liu Yazhen is still crying.
The last time she decided to deal with Xuezhao, Ming Jiao screamed Gu Xuezhao’s name while poking her doll in a state of madness.
At that time, she did not attract her attention. Later, after being hated by Li Shuji, Liu Yazhen was busy maintaining his friendship in the circle of his wife, and he did not care about Cheng Mingjiao.
At the end of the period, Liu Yazhen began to panic when she saw Cheng Mingjiao’s plummeting performance and abnormal mental state at first glance.
“What are you talking about …” Li Sitong asked with a frown.
“You take your daughter away from my daughter, OK? Ming Jiao is Gu Xuezhao’s fault !!” Liu Yazhen shouted.
“Yazhen, don’t worry, make it clear what Mingjiao is all about!” Bai Xiumei’s brows are very ugly. Although he was disappointed with this granddaughter before, he was actually born and still remembered.
“Ming Jiao … Ming Jiao got depression because of Gu Xuejiao …”
“Why is it because of Zizhao?” Li Sitong glared. “And I don’t think Ming Jiao’s situation is much like depression, like mental …”
“You shut up!” Liu Yazhen’s eyes widened, and he didn’t care about everyone being present. “Your daughter hurt my daughter like this, what do you want to do!”
“Brother and sister, what matters now is what happened to Ming Jiao!” Cheng Shuo frowned. He was still very concerned about this niece who had been in pain for many years. The most important thing now is the status of the niece, not quarrels and arguments.
Liu Yazhen said while crying: “Gu Xuejiao and Ming Jiao quarreled at school many times, which caused Ming Jiao to have no friends at school and was squeezed out by everyone. Her heart was really stressed. Gu Xuejiao also stimulated her , Mingjiao … Mingjiao can’t stand it! “
She covered her face and cried, as if everything was Xue Zhuo’s fault.
Others froze for a moment and looked at Xue Zong, especially Cheng Kai’s eyes began to be a little bit bad, Bai Xiumei’s face completely cooled down.
Xue Jiao took a deep breath, put down the cup in his hand, and looked at Cheng Mingjiao–
“Ming Jiao, you have to admit one thing, there will be many people who are better than you in this world. You ca n’t accept that Gu Xuejiao, who has been pressed under you, becomes excellent, you are jealous, you do wrong things, and then Classmates in the class began to fear you and alienate you. Under such circumstances, I am getting better and better, you are getting more and more crazy, and you ca n’t bear it, you force yourself into the way it is now. But why do n’t you work hard? Don’t try to catch me? “
Xue Zhe paused for a while and continued to say: “I used to be the same in Gu XueZhao before. You forced me to dust. There were no friends. The only few friends wanted to hurt me. You showed off your excellence … But I Knowing that jealousy is useless, I work hard, I work hard to what I am today, but you start to resent …
But no one is born to be more noble than anyone else, and jealousy will never be the solution. “
Xue Jiao turned her attention to Liu Yazhen and said seriously—
“Cheng Mingjiao’s situation is a psychological problem. You don’t need to hate me or blame me. The way you can save her is to teach her-jealous, to no avail.”
“Ah-” Cheng Mingjiao screamed covering his ears.
“Boss!” Bai Xiumei slapped his hands on the table and said with a cold voice, “This year’s New Year’s Eve dinner will not be eaten, you take the family back first.”
Cheng Shuo glanced at Cheng Mingjiao and nodded: “Okay.”
When he and Xue Zuo walked to the door with three people, he paused and said softly to Cheng Kai–
“Zhaojiao … Actually right … Mingjiao’s problem cannot be solved by escaping.”
After that, they took Xuejiao away.
