The rest of your life is too long, you are too unforgettable

Chapter 53
Mu Zheng monologue
I was 25 and you were 19 when we met.

You are in your second year of college, and you have long straight hair over your shoulders. No matter what angle you look at from the camera, you look very young and innocent.

I stared at the group photo of your family for a long time before I dropped the documents sent by the HR department on the table and pinched the bridge of my nose sleepily with my fingers.

I actually don't know what I'm looking at.I have known the family information of your whole family very well - your father is Liang Guoxing, and his wife, your mother Qiu Yueqin, is the first love that my father will never forget all his life.It used to be an ordinary working family, raising one son, one daughter and two children, living a tight life. My father hired your father to work as an accountant in the company to take care of the deceased, with a good salary.

I have seen him himself, he is tall and thin, wears glasses with big frames, his hairline is moved back like many middle-aged men, and he just walks by like this, as if he never dared to raise his eyes when he sees people, in a panic Like being chased for debt.

It was just such an unremarkable man who embezzled several 10 yuan from the company's account to treat his wife's illness, and accidentally stepped into the trap of an underground casino, so he had to move again, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

The amount is not too large, and the fraud on the books has been fooled. If it hadn't been found out when the company was listed, there would probably not be any disturbances.

I'm not doing charity. The reason why I keep him working in the company is actually a very despicable spy mentality, just to see when your family's happy and contented days will come to an end.

When I picked up the group photo again, my eyes fell on you involuntarily, and I suddenly realized that if I really want to take revenge, now is the time.

After all, the obstruction of the company's listing is a major event. Even with my father standing in front of the board of directors, I still feel unprecedented pressure.

If there are exactly two children in a family, they often have very different personalities. If they are accidentally twins, this difference will be even more obvious.

When I was overwhelmed with company affairs, Mu Rong happily called and said that the indie band he formed had arrived in Nancheng and was going to perform in several colleges and bars, so I must come to the scene in person.

He learned the piano with me since he was a child. He has no habit, learns to play, but the teacher always praises him, because he plays and sings no matter whether the music has words or not. He has a good voice and a style.Later, he learned clarinet, guitar, and bass. When he took the guitar on stage, girls screamed for him, so he formed a band and played by himself.

Eating, drinking and having fun seems to be his main business, but he can be considered to be able to play some tricks.Many people want to stick to their ideals but find that this way is not feasible, but in reality there is no money to support them.He doesn't have this problem, even his band's instruments and costumes are sponsored by me to buy them.

It's no secret that the lead singer of this band comes from the prestigious old Mu's family, but few people seem to know that behind him is a twin brother with a similar face but a different personality.

But this does not prevent our brotherhood.Our brotherhood is very good, it has been like this since we were young, and it has never changed.

I took time out to watch their rehearsal, but he seemed busier than me. A group of people rented an abandoned warehouse, and when they entered, they could hear the deafening music, musical instruments and stage props piled up everywhere.He harmonized with the band in the front, was not satisfied, and repeated it again and again.

Later I learned that the keyboard player of the band had to go home urgently, so they had to temporarily find a keyboard player to meet the needs of the performance. After trying, they were not very satisfied.

Mu Rong was rarely frowning, angry, shouting and drinking, and only at this time did he look like me.

They happened to be having lunch, and when they heard that I hadn't eaten yet, he ran in to find the person who was distributing lunch, "Hey, give me another one, my brother is here, we can't let him go hungry!"

I stood outside the door and watched, the box lunch fast food for one person had a cheap greasy smell, and I didn't have an appetite.Interestingly, however, I saw a new face I didn't expect to see here - it was you.

You help out in the band, packing up props and costumes, doing errands, including things like buying lunch boxes.In fact, the lunch box in front of you is already the last one. Just after tearing off the label that fixed the lid, Xiao Wu reached out to ask you for it, so you gave him this one too.

This was actually your lunch, and it ended up being eaten by me.Of course you don't know it yourself.

Xiaowu's band doesn't accept outsiders casually, one more person means more consumption, that's the reason.So I guessed right, you came here to apply for a temporary keyboard player, but you didn't pass Xiao Wu's assessment. Anyway, they are short of manpower, so you will stay as a free labor force.

Now even the most basic welfare such as lunch has been deprived, so I can only go hungry at noon.

I inexplicably found it funny, and thought of playing a prank.These days when they stayed in Nancheng, they went to watch their rehearsal at noon from time to time.

The daily expenses of the band are fixed, perhaps because of the lesson of your father, you are very careful about the money you handle, and you will not deduct a little more from the meal money to buy an extra box lunch, so your own share ends up in mine abdomen.

Maybe I think this kind of teasing is funny, and I can eat such cheap meals with relish.

During the special period when your father had an accident, it was definitely not by chance that you appeared beside Xiao Wu.I think that since you are playing tricks, you must be prepared to suffer.

One day at noon, the rest of the band was gone, and you were left alone to watch.I stood at the door and saw that you were not as busy as usual, but sitting in front of the electronic piano, playing "Dream Wedding" with your hands up.

The fluency is not bad, but the expressiveness is not enough. It is still a long way to perform on stage. No wonder it can't pass Xiaowu.

I know that your mother must have taught you how to play the piano, and Qiu Yueqin is a kindergarten teacher.

Speaking of which, you also look more like your mother.

I went around behind you from another door, you didn't know what you were thinking, you were so engrossed in playing that you didn't notice anyone approaching.When I suddenly told you that this bar was played incorrectly, you jumped up like a frightened bird. Only when I saw your eyes did I understand how uneasy you were in your heart.

You play the piano just to mask the unease.

I didn't say a word, just demonstrated it casually.Grateful and joy filled your eyes, and you said, "Thank you, Mu Rong."

It turns out that you still don't know who I am, and you think of me as Xiao Wu.

At that time, you should have something else to say to me, but you just didn't have time.

If you don't say it, I also know what you want to say.

I was late on the day of the high school performance, and the band's performance was almost over.I sat down in the farthest corner, and you should still be busy backstage. Their performance costumes and props should all be left to you to clean up in the end.

I told Xiao Wu that I prepared a celebration banquet for the band at the hotel that night. After working so hard for so long, I should relax after the performance.

You were probably the last person to know the news. Xiao Wu and the others had already packed up their instruments and left. You put down the things in your hand and chased out from the backstage, just in time to crash into my arms.

There is a pounding echo in my chest, I don't know if it is your violent heartbeat or mine.

I still remember that you were wearing a plain T-shirt and jeans that day, your face was full of anxiety, and there were thin beads of sweat on the tip of your nose.You didn't look carefully at who I was, and you stopped me and called Mu Rong again. You probably expected that he didn't remember you, and you foolishly introduced yourself.

You reminded me again, you are Qiu Yueqin's daughter - she caused my mother to die of depression and have no family, and you are her daughter.

You said something sincerely, but I didn't really listen to it. Anyway, I know what you are going to say.

You have a girl's unique fragrance like flowers and grass. I only see your small mouth opening and closing, your eyes are watery, and the hair behind your head is a bit messy, and a few strands of hair hang down in the air. Dangling in front of my eyes, there seemed to be something dangling in my heart.

I thought, maybe I can let your family go, but I have to get something else in exchange.

You obediently went home with me, probably never thought that "Mu Rong" would have such a shameless condition, until I really possessed you, did I pierce the last bit of your innocence.

I told you very clearly that only I can help you, you might as well beg me directly if you beg him.

But you kept crying, not knowing whether it was pain or feeling wronged, and you were sobbing and choking at first, but then it became silent, and tears soaked a large piece of the pillow.

I also became irritable, leaving you alone, dressed indiscriminately and went downstairs.

I actually had nowhere to go. When I realized it, I was already sitting in front of the piano.

I also played "Dream Wedding". You didn't play well before, and I can't play well either.

At that time, you came down from upstairs and stood timidly on the stairs to peek, and I knew it too.

Your determination is written on your face, and I can understand it every time we meet later.

The great hero and good man in your heart, Mu Rong, has already left Nancheng, and will not step on the colorful auspicious clouds to save you, and you will no longer be able to treat me as another person.

I force you to call my name loudly on the bed, you probably don't know that your voice is soft and sweet, as addictive as your body and smile.

I actually like you so much that I wish I could wake up every day and see you by my side.But you have already started an internship in an airline company. I told the secretary to only buy flights from that company when traveling, so that I might meet you. Even if I don’t, the same uniform will remind me of you.

I let your father go, and I didn't let him go to jail. I even bowed my head to the hospital to visit your seriously ill mother, and told her kindly that I let your family go, not because she will die soon, but because of her. The daughter's name is Liang Zhixuan.

You don't know many things, and you won't be happy if you know.You instinctively resisted my approach, and you were always full of vigilance. Even a photo I accidentally took early in the morning was used as a handle to threaten you.

We had a big fight, and for the first time I realized that you might never trust me again in your life.

In this case, why don't you make mistakes to the end, at least you will always stay by my side, you can't go anywhere.

This time I was too naive.

Feng Yaru told me that you might be my half-sister, and it was the first time in my life that I lost control in front of her.Although I think this possibility is very small, it is actually hard for me to imagine how ridiculous the previous generation was.

Most importantly, she reminded me of a very important fact, which I have been deliberately downplaying and avoiding since I met you - the entanglement between the Mu and Liang families is doomed for me not to be with you .

So I tell you to get out and never appear in front of me again.

I thought you would leave South City with your family, but you stayed stubbornly, just sold your original house and moved to the oldest neighborhood in the city.

Who do you think the buyer of the house is?When I got the keys and walked into that little house, and walked into your room and touched the old piano you played, I really felt like I was dying.

I should change my method. When I can’t force others, I can only force myself to forget you.

Xiaoxiao has a good relationship with me, and everyone in my family understands that she is not just a brother and sister to me.Feng Yaru still has some real power in the company, and Xiaoxiao has shares in the family trust. Since the elders are happy to see her success, I simply get engaged to her and get back the shares, killing two birds with one stone.

It doesn't matter who you marry anyway. "Dream Wedding", I can't play it anymore.

But in the end even Xiaoxiao left, I couldn't give her what she wanted, and any girl would be upset if she was ignored, especially when she was surrounded by Liang Wendong who knew the cold and the hot.

That's your younger brother, not at all like your sister.

I know who he is and still keep him by my side. This kind of mentality is very similar to that at the beginning, but I know that there are still some differences.

My expectations have changed. I am waiting for Liang Wendong to become a change in your world and bring you back to me.

In fact, I dare not face such expectations. After you left, I have been deceiving myself and others.

Sure enough, seeing you again, I am still happy, really happy.Hearing your voice asking for your health, knowing that it's just your job, I still can't help but want to look at you, touch you, see you being harassed by an old pervert, and want to kick him out of the plane...

After this reunion, I trapped myself again and made myself a prison.My life has also fallen into a strange circle, always repeating the process of getting you and losing you.

Then I got scared too, and I finally realized that nothing compares to losing you forever.

After I was injured, I remembered every word you said in my ear. I tried my best to hold on, just to open my eyes to see if it was true... it was really the Liang Zhixuan I love.

You have never been half-willing to me, because you don't love me, never, never loved me.

You were 25 years old that year, exactly the age I was when I met you, and I was already 31 years old.

You left without saying goodbye and wandered around the world, but I was still stuck in the same place, like a prisoner. At that time, I thought you were really cruel.

Guan Long and Cheng Jie are about to get married, and Xiao Wu, a bastard who has only seen pigs running but never drives meat, has a girlfriend, but you still haven't come back, so I realized that I really can't afford to be wasted.

I went to Hokkaido to find you. Those three days were the happiest three days in my life.

Stolen, ephemeral.

At Sapporo New Chitose Airport, I actually cried when I held the music box, I never thought you would come after me.

Thankfully you didn't see, that was the first time I cried since my mother died.

You were 26 and I was 32.

A long time has passed in the blink of an eye. In the era when "little fresh meat" was rampant, I can be considered an old man at my age.I want to get married, I want to settle down and have a child, I can put a ring on you with my own hands, I can't, let Xiao Wu, who is behind in everything, be ahead of us, right?

What do you say?
"Mrs. Mu... Mrs. Mu, are you okay?"

Liang Zhixuan raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and raised her head, the clerk of the dress customization store was looking at her politely and with concern.

She originally ordered a new dress for an opera, but she did not expect that the finished dress would be quite different from the one she had ordered at the beginning. The elegant satin surface was covered with luxurious lace and pearls, like a dress that only a wedding hall would have.

She was wondering, the clerk had brought the famous roseonly rose box in the city.After she finished reading the long letter in the box, she saw a brilliant diamond ring under the envelope.

There are two lines at the end of the letter: "You know that I have always been thin-skinned and have a vicious tongue, and I have no experience in marriage proposals. No matter how much I say, it seems that such a letter will make you feel my heart more easily. If you are willing, Just put on the ring and the rose, and I'll wait for you outside."

She cried and laughed, and cried again after laughing, put the ring on her middle finger, pinned an eternal rose on her temples, and walked out calmly.

When Mu Zheng heard the footsteps, he turned and smiled at her, as if he had been waiting for her all his life.

pirate monologue
It has been raining for several days in a row, and today it is said that a cold wave is coming, and the temperature has dropped a few degrees, but the sky has cleared up.

In the afternoon, I just jumped on the swing in the yard to take a nap and bask in the sun, when I saw my cat wife, Xiao Bai, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and calling me.

She is covered in white and fluffy hair, like a beautiful fluffy snowball in the sun, and her blue eyes are like gems. I still can't resist her charm.

She was not like this when we first met. At that time, she was black, thin and small, and was bullied miserably by other wild cats for a little food.It was I who helped her fight those bastards away, gave her my food, and then we were together.

I was abandoned by my original owner when I was six months old, and then I was blinded in one eye by a naughty kid with a slingshot.Xiaobai doesn't dislike me, she always says that I am very manly, more manly than a big ice cube.

She seems to like big ice cubes, probably because he always buys us the best and most expensive Miaoxian Bao, let us sleep in his arms, and he delivered our first baby cat.

Although I was very happy to hear the praise, I still scoffed at her analogy.
