Sadness begins with your name

Chapter 8 His Soul Flew Away

When I was 14 years old, I became a child of a single-parent family, and I lived with Ning Qinglan.

Unexpectedly, the two of us became celebrities in the whole city.

TV stations and newspapers reported what happened that day, such as the tragic female writer jumping off the building to refuse a divorce, her daughter begging her mother on her knees, and so on.I usually act like I don't care about everything, but I'm actually so sensitive that I'm dying. Even when I hear someone say the word "jump off a building" while walking on the road, I can't wait to rush up and slap him.

Back at school again, when I saw Lin Yuehe hurriedly walking in the corridor of the teaching building with my heavy schoolbag on my back, I almost didn't recognize him.

He was wearing a dirty white shirt, with disheveled hair and a haggard face. There were two big dark circles under his absent-minded eyes, as if he hadn't eaten or slept for several days.

what happened to him?Walking towards me, he didn't see me, and walked straight away with his head down. He seemed to be holding a book in his hand. I took a closer look, and it was a thin collection of essays "Liu Guang", written by Qing Lan.

Lin Yuehe is also my mother's reader!
Back in the classroom, Xiaonuan ran over and asked with concern: "Sha, is your mother okay?"

I stared at that round little face for a while, until I couldn't see a trace of sarcasm in her black grape-like clear eyes, then I was relieved, nodded and said: "She is very strong. I have been writing novels at home recently. mesmerized."

"Your mother is amazing!" Xiao Nuan said with admiration.

"Many people saw what happened that day on TV. I was very worried at the time. Fortunately, Aunt Ning is fine. She is really strong."

I forced a smile, bowed my head and started to flip through the book.I haven't been in the mood to study for several days, and my homework has fallen behind a lot.I have to find an opportunity to ask Lin Yuehe to make up for me later.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Nuan was leaning beside my seat, whispering in my ear mysteriously, "You know, Mr. Lin is in a weird state recently! Everyone says he's a little crazy."

"Crap! What's going on?" I hurriedly asked.

"Didn't you notice that he suddenly changed a lot? He seemed to be ten years older overnight, and when he talked to people, he didn't understand the words..." She looked towards the door, "Chinese class is coming soon, if you don't believe me, take a look .”

As we were talking, the class bell rang.

Lin Yuehe, who was never late, disappeared for a long time.

Someone in the classroom began to whisper: "I heard that Teacher Lin was stimulated..."

"It is said that I suddenly saw an old lover who has been missing for many years, so excited..." My ears immediately perked up, for fear of missing any word they said.

Xiao Nuan pushed me: "Hey, do you know why Mr. Lin never got married?"

"Why?" I curled my lips, this is also my biggest question, "Ms. Lin is too good, no woman is worthy of it." I said so, telling myself that I would rather believe that this is the real reason.

"What, no matter how good you are, you'll be running around. At least it's too old for us...Let me tell you, there is a very tortuous love story here, just like a romance novel. After the evening self-study, you Accompany me to the playground, and I will tell you in detail."

Lin Yuehe never showed up in class that day.

After the evening self-study, I returned home a little late, and in the night with the fragrance of flowers, under the starry sky, I quietly listened to Xiaonuan telling the story about Lin Yuehe.

Lin Yuehe is a native of Beijing. When he was 17 years old, he was admitted to a local university, majoring in fine arts.

In the first semester of his freshman year, he fell in love with a female model who was five or six years older than him, and his life changed since then.

"That girl's name seems to be Lan." Xiaonuan said, let's call her Alan.

The beautiful and charming Alan quickly captured the heart of the young Lin Yuehe. He loved her madly, and she also loved his simplicity and enthusiasm.

In their sophomore year, they were together.It is not unreasonable for a handsome artist to fall in love with a beautiful female model. Unfortunately, Alan is not only married, but also just gave birth to a child.The husband's career has just started, and he has no time to take care of it. When he finds out, they are already so in love that they cannot extricate themselves.

They once eloped hand in hand, boarded a train bound for Urumqi, and agreed to stay together on the border of the motherland until death.But before the train arrived at the station, they were stopped. Alan's husband was standing on the platform holding a baby under one year old. When he saw his wife, he rushed up and slapped her hard twice.

Lin Yuehe, who had just grown up, was escorted back to Beijing by his family with tears in his eyes, and continued to go to school.

However, Alan has disappeared since then, and there has been no news for more than ten years.

"That Alan must be beautiful." I said foolishly.

"Empty Valley Youlan, graceful and tactful. It is said that these are the original words of Teacher Lin." Xiaonuan said and sighed: "That woman has a family history of mental illness, otherwise why would she go to be a mannequin when she is married?"

"No way...Maybe she needs money? Or likes this industry?" I stammered and guessed.

Xiao Nuan chuckled: "I like being a nude model and being seen naked, isn't this crazy or what?"

I was dumbfounded, and asked after a while: "Then what happened after that? Alan and Lin Yuehe...how are they?"

"Alan left Beijing with her husband. Lin Yuehe gave up his art major and changed to Chinese. After graduation, he was assigned to be a teacher in M ​​City..."

On the second day of class, Lin Yuehe finally showed up.

He was still undeveloped, still haggard, with disheveled hair and dull eyes.I looked at him, still feeling a little distressed.

It seems that Alan, whom he never forgets, is probably in this city.

He walked into the classroom, looked down for a week, and then slowly stayed on my face.

"Alan..."

I didn't hear it, but saw his chapped lips suddenly open into such a mouth shape.

Surprised, it seems that what Xiao Nuan said is true.But did he really meet his Alan again in this city?So why is he so lonely and haggard?
Lin Yuehe's performance made me feel distressed and let me down.He doesn't know that I like him very much, and he doesn't know how uncomfortable I feel when I see him degenerate and haggard day by day.

He still continued the class, but the person on the podium seemed to be thrown into boiling water and boiled again and again, and the vividness, aura and vividness were all gone.

His soul flew away, leaving only the body of a 32-year-old man.
