Chapter 227: Dream and Reality
Chapter 227: Dream and Reality
Dabin saw how distracted I was, put down Wei Lai, shook my shoulders vigorously a few times, and said loudly, "Brother Sheng! Calm down, calm down!"
Wei Lai was probably frightened by my appearance, so she burst into tears. She pulled the corner of my clothes and looked at me with a small face in horror. She pursed her mouth and cried pitifully: " Dad, what's the matter with you?"
Dabin's scolding didn't calm me down, but Wei Lai's crying woke me up abruptly. I knelt down and hugged Wei Lai, trying to soften my tone and comforted me, "Wei Lai, don't cry. Dad is fine, Dad is going out for a while, let Uncle Dabin stay with you at home, okay?"
Wei Lai stopped crying, and didn't ask me what I was going to do, but nodded obediently.I reached out to wipe away the tears on her little face, handed her into Dabin's arms, and said to Dabin, "Take care of Wei Lai, I'll be back later!"
Without waiting for his answer, I hurried out of the bar. I went to the shop of Mr. Li, who sells clothes, and borrowed a car from him. Mr. Li didn't ask me where I was going or what I was going to do. He just reminded me to pay attention to safety and take the car away. The key was given to me.
I started the car and drove out of the town, galloping all the way to the provincial capital.
I looked at my watch, it was past two o'clock, and it was about three hours' drive from the provincial capital airport, so I couldn't help feeling anxious.Fortunately, this place is remote, so there are not many vehicles on the road. Although the road is not easy to walk, it is smooth all the way.
I tried my best to drive forward at the fastest speed I could control. I couldn't just let Annie go. Although I don't know what else I can do to Annie, I definitely couldn't let her wait for seven years. Putting it all together, I must stop her, I must tell her that I am coming, I have been here a long time ago, I have always been by her side, but I have never met her...
However, the time passed by every minute and every second. Although I had already raised the speed of the car to the highest speed, I watched the time from the plane take off continue to shorten on my wrist, and the two sides of the road were still gray and brown, and there was no sign of approaching the provincial capital at all. , I can't help feeling distraught!
At 04:30, I finally arrived in the urban area, which was very close to the airport, but what followed was that the traffic increased and the driving was extremely slow, and there were traffic lights to wait from time to time.
Although it is already very autumn, I am sweating all over my body at the moment. Looking at the slow-moving traffic like a snail, I only regret that I don't have a pair of wings to be free from the constraints of this space.
However, God seemed to be joking with me, even though I was in a hurry, and when I arrived at the square outside the airport, the clock on the clock tower of the square was exactly at [-]:[-].At the same time, a plane went straight into the sky...
Suddenly my legs went limp, and I slumped down on the marble square...
I'm only one step away, just one step!I will be able to meet Annie, but it is just this one step difference that makes Annie's seven-year wait meaningless!
What does seven years mean?
Annie, have you lost your youth in seven years?But why are you so persistent in sticking here?
Just for a casual agreement!Just for a possibility that doesn't know the geometry of probability!Just to fulfill one of my long-cherished wishes, you have waited here for seven years without complaint or regret!
God knows if I would have come here if my unbearable past hadn't made me tired of the flashy city!In this way, I don't even know that she quietly paid for me...
But Anne...
Why do you always silently make such a big sacrifice for something with no hope in sight?Why do you never care about your own gains and losses?Why do you always make me feel bad...
Didn't it occur to you that what you were waiting for was just a joke?
Haven't you ever thought that the person you're waiting for may never show up?
Even the possibility that he will never know the sacrifices you made for him?
But since you have been waiting for seven years, why can't you wait for him even one more hour...
Why did you leave in front of his eyes when he found you...
He never even saw you...
Scenes from the past came to me like a tide, as clear as yesterday.Annie has been by my side since high school, until college, until graduation. She followed me to City A...
She spends her best life by my side, takes care of me and cares about me in her way!Until the end I was heartbroken and left with hatred...
Every smile on her face, every tear she sheds, every cry she makes, every turn she turns around, is like a heavy shackle, trapping my soul and making it impossible for me to break free...
I drove the car to the small town with a heavy heart, the world seemed to be desolate because of Annie's departure!Annie is gone, Annie is gone again!Annie is really gone...
Did she finally die of despair?Was she finally unable to lie to herself anymore?
She walked thousands of miles away. After so many years, will there be a chance to see her again in this life?
annie!anne...
Thinking of this, I suddenly became sad, and tears fell out of my nose when my nose was sour!The sunset in the sky changed the color of the earth, showing a deep rose purple, looking through the mist in the eyes, it looks like blood that is gradually cooling down!
annie!annie!
Back in the small town, the sun has already sunk into the horizon, only the sunset glow is still red, but it finally gradually fades unstoppably, the world has turned into a gray-brown background again, and it will never change!
I returned the car to Boss Li, thanked him briefly, and returned sadly. Seeing Boss Li's worried expression, I didn't have the heart to explain what happened today to him!It's so sad to say it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it!
I went back to the silversmith shop, Dabin was waiting for me at the door with Wei Lai in his arms, Wei Lai fell asleep in Dabin's arms, probably because he was sleepy waiting for me, and fell asleep by accident!Seeing Wei Lai, my cold heart finally gradually warmed up, Wei Lai, my daughter!
I came to Dabin and sat down slowly on the steps, silent, I knew Dabin must have something to ask me, but unexpectedly he didn't ask, so the two of them were silent together!
Sitting blankly on the steps, my mind became confused, I really wanted to get up and do something, but suddenly I seemed to lose interest in everything.
It suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't eaten all day, so I wanted to get myself something to eat, but when I had this thought, I felt sick in my stomach, and I felt like I wanted to vomit...
I was sitting with my head down for an unknown amount of time, when suddenly a pair of feet appeared in front of me, a pair of women's feet wearing canvas shoes. When I realized these feet, I didn't know when they came Come to me!
When I looked along these feet until I saw this person's face, I almost froze...
At this moment, the whole world seemed to suddenly become silent, time seemed to stagnate at this moment, and space seemed to condense!
There is a woman standing in front of me, a woman who has made me feel guilty for several years, a woman who breaks my heart just thinking about it, a woman who is so stupid that my heart aches...
I thought she was already far away in the Northland, or she was already going to the other side of the ocean thousands of miles high in the sky!However, she is standing in front of me at this moment, standing in front of me incomparably real, the real almost makes my heart beat faster, the real makes my heart break...
Annie stood quietly in front of me, tears streaming down her face...
She looked at me silently, letting the tears flow down her cheeks!
I just raised my head, and the moment my eyes met, Annie couldn't help it anymore, she raised her hand to cover her mouth, and the tears became more turbulent!
I was stunned, I couldn't believe it was true, but Annie was clearly standing in front of me!Could it be that I am dreaming?Or am I hallucinating?Why is Anne standing in front of me when her flight is already soaring into the sky in front of me?
I stood up slowly, moved my steps slowly, and stretched out my hand slowly...
I want to confirm whether this is my dream or hallucination, I slowly reached out to touch Annie's teary face, only to feel the softness of the tentacles and the warmth of the tears...
This is clearly not a dream, nor is it a hallucination. Annie didn't leave, not only didn't she leave, but she was right in front of me, right now!now!
Once I was confirmed, I couldn't bear the turmoil in my heart anymore, I stretched out my arms and pulled Annie into my arms, tears fell uncontrollably, falling on Annie's hair drop by drop...
Annie shrugged her shoulders slightly in my arms, and she slowly let go of her arms after a long time. Annie looked up at me with tears in her eyes. She reached out and brushed my long hair away from my face, and gently rubbed the scar on my face with her palm. , her jaw kept twitching, obviously she couldn't hold back the regret in her heart!
"elder brother……"
She called me, the tone became difficult due to trembling, but it was still so familiar and kind!
How many years, she stood in front of me again and called me brother, just like many years ago!But at that moment, she was still a gentle, kind, quiet and introverted beautiful woman, but now she is also stained with the wind and frost of the years, adding a touch of mature charm, but this maturity makes me extremely heartbroken...
My Annie, I know the vicissitudes you have experienced along the way, and I know how tragic this sad transformation from the inside out is!You only know how to weave cocoons with your whole life, but in the end you exhausted all your cocoons and trapped yourself in them.
I know that your stubborn reluctance to leave is not because you can't, but because you don't want to...
You have trapped yourself here for several years, do you just want to call me again: "Brother..."
My tears flowed down with Annie's "brother"!
My heart was full of sadness following this brotherly sound, and I couldn't help but pulled Annie into my arms again...
Probably because of my huge changes and the shocking scars on my face, Annie finally couldn't hold back the emotions in her heart, sobbing and crying...
