In those years, we were not together

Chapter 20 Who Was Poisoned by Love (1)
1. The Misunderstood Dinner
The next morning, before Li Lei arrived at the office, Sun Yifei called and said that they were going to have dinner together in the evening, but just hung up after finishing speaking, without even giving Li Lei a chance to refuse.

Li Lei was a little displeased, he always felt that Sun Yifei was like a little monster, eccentric, but also entered his life a little badly, which was very different from the style of the educated and sensible lady he saw for the first time.Maybe, the girl's mind is really hard to guess.

In the evening, Li Lei went to the appointment on time at the place agreed by Sun Yifei.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sun Yifei waving to him from a distance: "Li Lei, over here!"

Li Lei walked over and saw a middle-aged couple sitting there: "Who are these two?"

"Let me introduce, these are my dearest parents!" Sun Yifei said.

"Uncle and aunt, hello!" Li Lei said politely, but he felt a little resentful towards Sun Yifei in his heart, why he didn't say hello in advance, and deceived himself here for no apparent reason. What kind of medicine is in it.

"Dad, Mom, this is the Li Lei I often mention to you." Sun Yifei introduced with a smile.

"Okay, okay, this child is handsome, and he is attractive at first glance." Mama Sun couldn't hide her inner joy.

"Mom..." Sun Yifei winked at her mother.

"Okay, I see, kid, sit down!" Mother Sun hurriedly moved Li Lei's seat.

"Thank you, auntie, I'll do it myself." Li Lei said politely.

"Then let's start ordering!" Sun Yifei said.

"Okay, order and see what you want to eat." Mother Sun said.

"Dad, you don't talk, so you should order!" Sun Yifei handed the menu to her father.

"Why do I know how to order, you should order!" Father Sun handed the menu to Yifei again.

"Why don't we order two each!" Sun Yifei suggested.

"Mom, you come first."

"Okay, okay, everything is up to you!" From the tone of Sun's parents and grandma, it can be heard that Sun Yifei is also a big lady at home, and everything in the family follows her.

Li Lei ordered two dishes in embarrassment. He thought it was just to meet Sun Yifei, but he didn't expect to meet her parents. At this time, Li Lei really wanted to find a crack in the rock.

"Lei Lei!" Mama Sun actually called Li Lei the way she called her son, which really flattered Li Lei, but Mama Sun didn't care, and instead continued, "You and our Yifei have been together for such a long time. Yes, since the day I met you, we Yifei have been saying how good you are. I heard that you helped me choose the gift for my birthday last time. I really liked it when I saw it. Really Thanks, How about you!"

"Auntie, you are too polite. Yifei is a good girl. She took me to choose the gift for you last time. You should thank her." Mama Sun's words made Li Lei a little embarrassed.

"No matter who it is, I thank you all, you are such a good boy, ha ha." Mama Sun became more and more delighted the more she watched Li Lei.

This meal really made Li Lei very depressed. On the surface, he forced a smile on his face and pretended to be very graceful, but he was very aggrieved in his heart. deep.So, he kept shouting in his heart—Sun Yifei, why do you want me to see your parents?

After dinner, Sun's father and Sun's mother took a taxi and left. Only Sun Yifei and Li Lei were left. It was still early, and Sun's mother said that the two of them could go for a walk together.

2. Unprepared confession

"You will blame me, right?" Sun Yifei spoke first.

"Why should I blame you?"

"I brought you to meet my parents without your consent!" What Sun Yifei said was not unreasonable. Li Lei was indeed a little unhappy about this, but not to the point of hating it.

"I just felt a little surprised. I was not prepared, and suddenly..." Li Lei said.

"Actually, I didn't intend to ask you to meet them. It's just that when I was about to leave work, my parents called me and said they wanted to have dinner with me. I made an appointment with you again. I don't want to miss the appointment, so I just wanted to get together Eat well, don't be angry!" Sun Yifei explained.

"No, I'm not such a stingy person." Li Lei said.

"Hey, that's good. Where are we going now?" Sun Yifei asked.

"I'm a little tired, I want to go back, how about I take you home?" Li Lei obviously didn't want to go any further.

"Li Lei, why have you been avoiding me recently?"

"I do not have to die!"

"I still said no, I always call you recently, but you haven't contacted me. And when I contact you, you always say that you are busy and don't have time..." Sun Yifei put out all the dissatisfaction in her heart. It's a pleasure to say it all.

"I'm sorry, I've been very busy recently. My friend had a car accident and was in the hospital. I have to see her. There are many other things involved, so my heart is really messed up..."

"Oh." Sun Yifei stopped talking. No matter what Li Lei said was true or false, she felt that maybe she shouldn't be too strong, but she couldn't control her strength. Maybe, she wanted to pass this A kind of superficial strength to conceal his fragile heart.Because, in the face of feelings, the more you want to hold on tightly, the easier it is to lose.

The two of them were silent for a long time, and Li Lei finally spoke: "Yifei, I don't think we are very suitable, so it's better...forget it!" Li Lei said these words with a lot of courage Yes, originally he is a person who is not very good at rejecting others, and always keeps things in his heart; in addition, he is also afraid of the consequences of directly rejecting MissGao in his dream, which will make people blame himself.

Sun Yifei didn't speak, and was silent for a while, then suddenly stopped, and Li Lei stopped with her.

At this time, Sun Yifei suddenly turned around and faced Li Lei. Li Lei had never looked at Sun Yifei so closely before.Her fair cheeks, high nose bridge, big eyes, and curvy figure make her an out-and-out beauty no matter what.However, in Li Lei's concept, he never considered beauty as the first factor in marriage. He emphasized feeling more. The so-called feeling is something that can't be clarified with words or requirements, or it is a kind of emotion, but It is precisely because of this inexplicable feeling that he missed many seemingly perfect combinations that everyone regretted.

"I like you." Sun Yifei stood on tiptoe and whispered in Li Lei's ear.Forget it, he turned around and ran away.

Only Li Lei was left standing there in a daze. He didn't expect Sun Yifei to confess to himself so boldly and shyly. No one told him that he liked him in such a way when he grew up.

"Love is crazy, not love is strong. If you are always so rational, you will never understand love." - He suddenly thought of this sentence, and felt very reasonable.Yes, I have missed a lot of feelings over the years. It is precisely because I have given myself too many shackles and restraints. The person I like has no courage to confess, and the person who likes me doesn’t know how to accept it, so I miss it, so I am lonely. So I have been wandering in the world of feelings...

Suddenly, Li Lei felt very lonely, and a chill rushed from the bottom of his heart to his brain.

3. Jim's phone

That night, Li Lei thought a lot. He even recalled some of the dreams he had. Although many memories were just trivial fragments, they still made him think a lot clearly.He feels that in the past years, he has missed many opportunities. Now and in the future, there is not much time for him to miss them. Therefore, he must overcome his psychological barriers and change his current situation. Then he needs to accept and pursue. , Even if you will be rejected, you must speak your heart.

Han Meimei, Lily, Sun Yifei, three women, three different feelings.Which one is the real love, such a grown-up person, even this question is puzzling!Indeed, emotionally, Li Lei is really a slow-heating and unforgettable type.The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, so he turned on his phone and opened his address book, but he didn't know who to call.

That's right, he has always been the one who is accepted, or the one who is lived. He originally thought that his life would go on like this, but now, Li Lei feels that he should live in a different way.

"Lin Tao, I'm Li Lei."

"Lei Zi, why are you still calling at this late hour?"

"It's okay, are you asleep?"

"Well, I've already slept!" Lin Tao's voice sounded like he was in a dream.

"Oh, then go to sleep!" Li Lei hung up the phone and looked at his watch. It was past 11 o'clock, and it was getting late. At this time, he might be the only one awake!However, this sobriety is mixed with too many entanglements, which makes people restless!
Reluctantly, Li Lei turned on the computer again, searched some websites randomly, and read posts.

At this time, the mobile phone rang, and looking at the number, it was Jim calling.

"Li Lei, I'm Jim."

"I know, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just want to ask if Meimei's injury is serious? How is it now?"

"Well, the situation is not very good now. Two days ago, it was said that I lost my memory. I was too busy to visit her these two days."

"Amnesia, how could this be?"

"I'm not too sure about the details. I still listen to what Lin Tao said. Tomorrow, I'll go over and have a look, and I'll tell you when the time comes."

"I'm on a business trip to your place tomorrow, so I can just see Meimei."

"Then we are going together, what time are you coming?"

"I guess it will be almost noon when we arrive. We will go there after dinner. We have to meet a client at three o'clock in the afternoon, so there should be time."

"Okay, call me when you arrive."

"Ah."

"By the way, how are you and Lily doing now?" Jim asked as if suddenly remembering something.

"Lily went back to Shanghai two days ago," Li Lei said hesitantly, "I think there seems to be a barrier between us."

"You tell me how to say hello, you are smart in everything, but you can't figure it out emotionally. Forget it, I will contact you when I arrive tomorrow." When Jim said this, he was very anxious and somewhat helpless. He did know that Li Lei had this kind of personality, so he was worried for him from the bottom of his heart.Sometimes he even thought, if Li Lei hadn't let Li Lei back then, maybe Han Meimei would have been his wife.However, once we get married, we can settle down, and now Jim doesn't think too much about it. Susan is a good woman, and he must treat her well in this life.

Then, Jim asked again: "By the way, how is Polly?"

"It's good! My mother treats it as a treasure, and I like it very much!"

"I haven't seen it for a long time, let's take it with me tomorrow!" Jim said.

"Ok!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Lei walked to the balcony and saw that Polly in the cage had fallen asleep, so he sighed and went back to the room.

Even Polly is happier than herself, carefree, eating and sleeping.You don't need to be like yourself, living a seemingly glamorous life every day, but in fact, it is mechanically repeated and always selected.

Maybe, life is always like this, you have no way to escape, the only thing you have is to face it.

4. The dialogue between the two brothers
It was exactly 12 noon when Jim called Li Lei, and the two met at a Chinese restaurant.

Before meeting Jim, Li Lei also called his mother, told her the address of the hospital, and asked her to take Polly to the hospital first.

"Why did you let Lily run away again?" Jim asked furiously as soon as he saw Li Lei.

"Uh..." Li Lei opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"I'm not talking about you. This matter must be your fault. If you really liked Lily, you wouldn't let her go back to Shanghai alone." Jim was a little angry when he said this.

"She left in a hurry that day. When I arrived at the hotel, she had already left. I didn't see her until I got to the train station..." Li Lei tried to tell what happened that day.

"I think there is no difference between the two of you, except that there is an explanation. Neither of you knows what the other is thinking. It's just a guess, so of course you will misunderstand!" Jim took a sip of water, and then said, "Communication, Your overseas MBA was for nothing! By the way, you, it’s not because of Han Meimei, is it?”

Li Lei didn't say anything, he didn't know how to say it, if he said no, it was a bit of a lie; if he said yes, it wasn't entirely true, besides, it couldn't be justified by emotion or reason.

"Lei Zi, those are all things in the past, can you live a little more clearly, the beauty of more than ten years ago can only be sealed in the memory of more than ten years ago, now we should pursue the happiness we should get, not I always live in the memories. I know that you have always been worried about Meimei. Yes, even I like Meimei, but what can I do? After all, she is married to someone else and has a For a happy family, we can only blame bad luck at most, or it should be like this, what else can we do besides this?" Jim was persuading Li Lei, and he was also persuading himself.

Before getting married, he also inquired about all the news about Han Meimei, but he knew that at that time, Han Meimei only had Li Lei in her heart. She sealed up her nostalgia and forced herself to accept a new relationship.

Perhaps, life is like this, and feelings can also be cultivated. Now Jim feels that he is also quite happy, whether it is Susan or Han Meimei, in the end only those who walk together can stay together for a lifetime.

"Leizi, I think you and Lily are a good match, but you are always remembering and can't let go of the past. In fact, the more you want to forget many things, the more you will remember them. If you can accept them calmly, I really forgot it!" When he said this, he didn't stutter a single bit, and he was very fluent, which was quite different from Jim who was in middle school who thought about a sentence for a long time and mixed some English words.

"Yes." Li Lei nodded.

"Forget it, it's useless for me to say more, let's get down to business, how is Meimei doing now?" Jim sighed.

"We'll find out when we get to the hospital later. Han Gang has been there all the time, so it's not easy for me to go there all the time."

"Then let's hurry up, I have something to talk about this afternoon."

"Are you going back to Shanghai today?" Li Lei asked.

"I'm going to stay for a few days this time, and I won't go back so soon."

"That's good, let's get together again. Miss Gao called me a few days ago and said that she would come to see Meimei in a few days."

"Oh, that's fine too. Let's take some time someday and find some good friends to get together with. But Lei Zi, you should really find a wife. Don't dwell on the little memories of the past. This is good for you." You're no good." Jim said admonishingly.

Li Lei smiled embarrassedly, and then nodded again. Of course, Li Lei knew what Jim said just now, but in many cases, knowing and doing it are two different things. If you can really forget that time Emotions will not be like this now.

5. Han Meimei with amnesia
In the afternoon, there were many people in Han Meimei's ward, as if they had made an appointment, they all came.

Wei Fang, Lin Tao and his wife, plus Jim, Li Lei, Li Lei's mother, Han Gang's mother, Coco, Sissy, and of course Polly, so the whole ward looked very lively.

However, everyone consciously lowered their voices when they spoke. After all, Han Meimei is still very weak and cannot be stimulated too much.

Only Polly shouted alive and kicking: "Iam Polly, what's your name?"

"Lilei, Hanmeimei..."

Perhaps Han Meimei opened her eyes after hearing Polly's words.

"Polly?" She was able to call out the parrot's name right away.

"Who are you and why are you here?" Seeing so many strangers around, Han Meimei asked in horror.

"Meimei, I'm Han Gang. I brought Keke and Qianqian here today, look."

"Mom!" I saw two children shouting in unison.

"Mom, mom, you've woken up. Dad said you don't even know us anymore. Do you still know me?" Coco said coquettishly, shaking Han Meimei's arm.

Han Meimei didn't speak, but looked back and forth at everyone standing there, and murmured, "Han Gang is my husband, Han Gang..."

"I'm here." Han Gang hurried forward and said.

"Isn't Li Lei my husband? Didn't we make an appointment to get married?" Han Meimei said.At this time, Han Gang's face turned pale and frighteningly pale. It was not the first time that Meimei mentioned Li Lei like this. There was a kind of fear in his heart, and this kind of fear was the fear of losing Meimei, and also because of being a man. How can I allow my wife to call another man her husband?And it was still in front of everyone, which made him unable to lift his head!At this time, he really wanted to find out what happened between Han Meimei and Li Lei, so that she could forget about herself and her child!

At this time, the whole ward became quiet, and everyone dared not speak, for fear of causing chaos if they were not careful.

"Meimei, do you still know me? I'm Wei Fang!" Wei Fang said carefully squatting on Han Meimei's bedside.

"Wei Fang, Wei Fang is my good friend." Han Meimei looked at Wei Fang, as if she could remember, and nodded.Seeing Meimei like this, the eye circles of everyone present were moist. On the one hand, they felt sorry for Han Meimei's current state; on the other hand, they felt pitiful for Han Gang, and worried about Li Lei.

"Meme, do you remember me?" Jim said.

"You are Jim." Han Meimei said.

"Mom, do you remember Coco?" The child's voice sounded again.

Han Meimei still didn't speak. Obviously, she didn't remember.As for Li Lei, he didn't stand up for Han Meimei to see. He was afraid that something unpleasant would happen if Han Meimei recognized him, so he quickly left the ward.

"How long has Meimei been like this?" Jim asked Han Gang.

"It's been a long time, and she doesn't remember our names, she doesn't know us, but it's strange, but she recognizes you when you come here." Han Gang suppressed his emotions and said.

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said she had selective amnesia, maybe..."

"Maybe he just remembers things from before?" Jim said.

"Maybe! She doesn't even remember Coco and Qianqian, and even who I am, it took her several days to teach her to remember." When Han Gang said this, he couldn't bear it anymore, and finally ran out. ward.
