Xia You Arbor: Looking to Heaven

Chapter 53 The Man's Tears (1)
One waited, but too soon;
One came back, but it was too late.

The only blame is that the fate is too shallow, less than a thousand years old.

At night, Shu Yawang was surfing the Internet in the room. Shu's mother pushed the door open and came in with a cup of hot milk. Shu Yawang took the milk and smiled at her mother: "Thank you, Mom."

Shu Ma sat on the bed next to her and looked at her quietly. Shu Yawang took a sip of milk, then turned around and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"

"Can I see my daughter?"

Shu Ya smiled: "Look, look. Is it good-looking?"

Shu's mother smiled, and raised her hand to stroke Shu Yawang's hair: "It's pretty, can my daughter not look good?"

Shu Yawang shook her head and smiled, she was the prettiest in her mother's eyes.

Shu's mother asked: "You really want to marry Xia Mu? Go to America with him?"

"Well, really."

Shu Ma was silent for a while: "Do you really want to go with him?"

"Well, really."

Shu's mother sighed: "I know your child has been like this since he was a child, and he will not change after making a decision. It's just that you have to think clearly about this important matter of marriage. That child Xia Mu likes you now, but he is four years younger than you. When he reaches your age, you will be old, in case he changes his mind..."

"Mom," Shu Yawang interrupted her funny, "you don't have to worry about this at all, Xia Mu is not such a person."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, then he doesn't go to college now, he has nothing, how long do you have to wait for him to support his family? Besides, you didn't have a job, and he didn't have a job when you went to the United States. You two are worth a cent." You still have to ask his family for the money, can you survive this day?"

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why do you say such things?" Shu Yawang frowned, "You don't like Xia Mu?"

Shu's mother complained and snorted: "How dare I not like it, since he came, I dare to say a bad word about him, you and your father can eat me..."

"Mom!" Shu Yawang interrupted her again helplessly.

"Anyway, your dad owes their family a life, and you owe their family a favor. If you want to pay it yourself, I can't stop you. Mom just can't bear to let go of that child named Tang. That child is so kind, and he treats you wholeheartedly. Mom has always wanted him to be our son-in-law, and Mom knows you still miss him..."

"Mom, stop talking about Tang Xiaotian." Shu Yawang turned her head, not wanting to hear any more.

Shu's mother sighed: "Look at you, Mom doesn't say a word, what will you do if you meet in the compound later? Turn around and run away?"

"I won't meet him. He is in Yunnan now, and it is impossible to come back. When he comes back, I will already be in the United States." Shu Yawang lowered her head, lightly clasped her hands, and said softly, "The fate between me and him It's already over."

"Yawang, do you really think about it?" Shu's mother held her hand, still disapproving of her daughter's decision. In her heart, only Tang Xiaotian could give her daughter happiness. She hoped that her daughter would marry someone who would take care of him and be considerate of her. , a good husband for her to rely on, and in her eyes, Xia Mu is just a child who needs to be taken care of by her daughter.

Shu Yawang let out a long sigh of relief, raised her head, and looked at her mother with a smile: "Mom, I've made up my mind. I've been thinking about this decision for six years. It can't be wrong. Although Xia Mu looks indifferent on the surface, he He is really a very gentle person, he is really nice, he really loves me, and I will be happy."

"Mom can't say no to you, as long as you feel good." Shu Ma shook her head, stood up and walked out, "Go to bed early, don't play too late."

"Understood." Shu Yawang nodded and agreed. After a moment of silence, she picked up the cold milk on the table and drank it one bite at a time. The faint light from the computer screen illuminated her cheeks. A faint smile, a little stiff, a little stubborn.

Some words can't be said too much, Shu Yawang said that she and Tang Xiaotian would never meet again, but in fact, she met him the next day as soon as she left the house, at the intersection not far from home.Shu Yawang was stunned, completely unresponsive, just stared at him blankly, Tang Xiaotian was wearing a straight 07-style new military uniform, slender and tall, handsome and handsome, easily distracting.

Tang Xiaotian didn't expect to meet her either, he looked at her closely, his eyes almost greedy, how long has he not seen her?

It's been a long time, so long that I don't even want to calculate...

Tang Xiaotian couldn't help but took a step forward, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, Shu Yawang came to his senses, pulled his hand away slightly, and took a step back without a trace.

Tang Xiaotian withdrew his hand in embarrassment, Shu Yawang lowered his head and bit his lips in annoyance, put his hand into his coat pocket, raised his head, and asked with a stiff smile, "Why are you back at this time?"

Tang Xiaotian looked at her and said, "There are some things in the army that need to be done."

Shu Yawang nodded: "Oh."

"What about you?" Tang Xiaotian looked at her and asked, "Why are you back?"

"I came back with Xia Mu."

"oh, I see."

Shu Yawang looked at the ground and didn't speak, and Tang Xiaotian didn't know what to say, the two just stood there relatively speechless.

The two people who wanted to meet so much, but when they met, they didn't even dare to look at each other's faces.

"Ah, by the way, Zhang Jingyu asked me to meet tomorrow, do you want to come together?" Tang Xiaotian looked at her with some expectation, "Jingyu said... Miss you very much."

Shu Yawang tightly clenched her hands in her coat pocket: "No, I'll be going back to City W tomorrow, the company still has a lot of things to deal with."

"Well, it's okay today, I'll call him." Tang Xiaotian said that he was about to call Zhang Jingyu. Shu Yawang raised his hand to hold him, raised his head helplessly, and looked at Tang Xiaotian sadly, "Xiaotian, count Alright."

"Why forget it?" Tang Xiaotian also looked at her sadly, "Why do you want to forget it with me?"

Shu Yawang lowered her head and said quickly: "I want to go to America with Xia Mu, and then marry him."

Shu Yawang kept her head down when she said these words. No matter how long it took, she couldn't face Tang Xiaotian, couldn't watch him get hurt, but the most ridiculous thing was that every time the person who hurt him was herself !

Tang Xiaotian didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he still stared at her: "Have you decided?"

"En." Shu Yawang stared at the ground tightly, unable to look up at him.

"Very good. Going to the United States is a good decision for Xia Mu." Tang Xiaotian's eyes were a little red, and he nodded with a forced smile, "I still have some things to do, let's go first."

"Ah."

Tang Xiaotian lowered his head and walked past her, she heard him say softly: "Goodbye, Yawang."

Shu Yawang stared at the front, tears streaming down like this: "Goodbye, Xiaotian."

The moment they passed each other, they all seemed to remember that summer, at this intersection, the red flowers flying in the sky, the promises they made when they were young...

"I'll wait for you to come back," said the girl.

"I will definitely come back," said the boy.

But in the end...

One waited, but too soon;
One came back, but it was too late.

The only blame is that the fate is too shallow, less than a thousand years old.

Shu Yawang bit her lip, lowered her head and walked forward, when suddenly a pair of sneakers appeared in front of her.She raised her face, tears blurred her vision, she blinked, the tears slid down, and then she saw the person in front of her clearly.

"Xiamu..."

Xia Mu looked at her, moved his lips, wanted to say something, but finally held back, strode forward, grabbed Shu Yawang, roughly wiped the tears off her face with his sleeve, and grabbed her Her hand said: "Go back to W City."

Shu Yawang frowned annoyedly, looked at his face secretly, wanted to apologize, but didn't know where to start, so she could only let him walk forward at a fast pace.

Xia Mu pulled Shu Yawang forward with a cold face, and when he turned the corner, he couldn't help but look back, only to see Tang Xiaotian standing where he was, looking at them sadly.Their eyes met, Tang Xiaotian's eyes were full of pleading, he hoped that he could treat her well, but Xia Mu avoided his sight, he hated him, no matter in the past or now, he always hated him, always hated him!

Because the person he loves loves him so much, even if he holds her tightly in his hand, he still feels so uneasy, he is afraid that she will throw off his hand and run back to him, so , he could only pull her tightly to leave here.

Tang Xiaotian watched them turn the corner, and they were nowhere to be seen anymore. He lowered his head with a wry smile, turned around and walked slowly, took out the mobile phone in his pocket, dialed a number, and after connecting, he said with a smile: " Jingyu, come out for a drink."

The man on the other end of the phone readily agreed: "Okay, see you at the old place."

Tang Xiaotian went to the garage to pick up the car, it was the old off-road vehicle that his father gave him after he retired.He opened the car door and sat in, started the car, stared indifferently at the front, the familiar road was constantly retreating, Tang Xiaotian drove, stopped, was stunned for a long time, and suddenly fell on the steering wheel and cried loudly.

He knows he is a man, he can't cry like this, he knows he is a soldier, he can't cry like this, but she is leaving, she is really leaving, leaving home, leaving the military compound, leaving S City , left China, went far away, so far away that he would never see her again, never see her again...

On the night when he met Tang Xiaotian, Xia Mu took Shu Yawang to City W, Xia Mu had a handsome face all the way.Shu Yawang was a little flustered, but didn't know what to say, Xia Mu's face softened a little until he got off the plane.

It was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night when we arrived in City W, Shu Yawang raised his spirits, and pulled Xia Mu back to his place with a smile.As soon as the door opened, Shu Yawang was stunned, the room was very messy, the girls' clothes were scattered everywhere on the sofa, the foam floor was full of snacks bought from the supermarket, and there were unfinished meals and unwashed clothes on the tea table. tableware.

Shu Yawang sighed, shook his head and said, "Zhuzi, I made the room like this when I wasn't around."
