Marriage is too late

Chapter 129

There are many old buildings in H City. After a hundred years of vicissitudes, they are not sluggish. They have witnessed the prosperity of this ten-mile foreign market, singing and dancing, and they have also experienced gunpowder and war. They are in a panic. They are silent witnesses, mottled but pure bricks The vicissitudes of a century seem to be written in it.

Ye Rufeng stared fixedly at the ivy on the red brick wall of the teaching building, the old red background, but the green newborn hovered around, the sunlight swayed gently in the swaying of the leaves with the wind.He was sitting in the car smoking, with the windows rolled down to the bottom, and the green smoke curled up, as the early spring wind softly brushed his cheeks, such a beautiful spring scene.

This old university, famous in Jianghu and Shanghai, was formerly a state school in the late Qing Dynasty, and it is located in a land of outstanding people.The students who can be admitted to this university are all the best among the students.

And Ye Rufeng, a businessman, is just a passerby.

He watched those young faces in their eighteenth, nineteenth and early twenties walking by in the sun. Most of them had full cheeks, excited smiles, vigorous steps and full of vigor.Such sunshine, such youth, Ye Rufeng couldn't help being a little envious.

He raised his watch, there were still 10 minutes before the appointed time, he was early, he knew it.

He was lazily thinking about smoking another cigarette to pass the time, his eyes casually glanced at the red brick wall of the teaching building in front of him, and he couldn't help being attracted.

It was a girl in white, wearing a light blue long floor-length skirt, carrying a violin case in her hand, Ye Rufeng suddenly felt unable to look away.

This girl, like Xie Yingying when he first met, the name flashed across Ye Rufeng's heart, and the pain remained.

However, her eyes couldn't help herself, and she kept following the figure of the girl in white. She walked briskly, her black hair was tied into a ponytail, and the trembling ponytail seemed to tremble in Ye Rufeng's heart.

Suddenly a fast football hit the girl in white on the cheek with howling force.

"Be careful!" When Ye Rufeng realized it, he realized that he had actually shouted.The girl was tens of meters away from him, even if he made a sound, it was already too late.

The girl staggered and fell to the ground. The violin in her hand fell violently. She let out a distressed "ah" and got up enduring the pain.

It rained last night, but it was sunny today, and there was still some water on the ground. The girl in white was originally a beautiful sight on campus, but now her skirt was dripping with mud and water, and there was a gray football mark on her cheek. She was in an indescribable embarrassment.

Ye Rufeng did it almost entirely out of his own instinct.

He hurriedly got out of the car and ran to the girl in white in a few steps. The urgent footsteps caused the girl in white who was looking down at her violin to complain before she looked up: "Student, your ball almost ruined my violin." Qin."

"I'm sorry, are you okay?" Ye Rufeng didn't correct the girl for admitting to the wrong person, but just smiled and handed over his handkerchief.

She just raised her head, and at this glance, Ye Rufeng was shocked and disappointed. It turned out that she didn't look like Xie Yingying, but from a distance, she had that graceful and graceful temperament, which had a bit of Xie Yingying's shadow. When she looked closely, she found that it was a more delicate face. , a pair of almond eyes, wet like spring water.

She looked at the man in front of her in confusion. He was different from the school uniform she was familiar with. He was wearing a snow-white shirt and slacks, but the seam was straight. The hand that handed her the handkerchief had long knuckles and a wrist. Although she didn't recognize the watch on the watch, it was obviously well-made. She was a little shy, knowing that she had misidentified the person, and asked embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I shouldn't blame people without recognizing them."

"It's okay, don't worry about it, do you want to help?" Although Ye Rufeng found that she was not similar to Xie Yingying after a closer look, he felt a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it. He still asked gently. slipped over the corner of her skirt.

"Student, classmate, I'm sorry, are you okay?" A hot-tempered boy ran all the way, wearing a tank top and shorts, and now it was the instigator of the football that caused trouble just now.

Su Nian just replied softly: "I'm fine." Her voice was gentle, and she didn't know why, but she just didn't want to show a trace of inappropriateness in front of the man who handed her the handkerchief.

Like a child who made a mistake, the boy who caused trouble picked up the football, ran away in a hurry, waved his hand and said: "Then I won't disturb you and your boyfriend on a date."

Only Su Nian and Ye Rufeng were left in embarrassment.

It was Ye Rufeng who said first: "Do you want me to take you back to the dormitory? Your skirt also needs to be changed." He turned his head and pointed to his car, "The car is over there."

Su Nian couldn't wish for it, you know, walking through the campus in half-body muddy water, she felt extremely embarrassed when she thought about it.She replied softly, "Thank you, I'm Su Nian." Dafangfang stretched out her hand.

Ye Rufeng smiled: "Ye Rufeng." But he didn't shake her hand, instead he took the violin case in her hand, wiped the water stains on it lightly, turned and left.

Su Nian was taken aback for a moment, but immediately followed, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.

For Su Nian, Ye Lang was mistaken for life at first sight.

Ye Rufeng sent her back to the dormitory. On the way, the spring wind was so soft, brushing against her cheeks, maybe it was encouraged by the spring breeze.Su Nian slowly chatted with him, he didn't talk much, but he was very thoughtful.

It turned out that Ye Rufeng came to find a friend from H University, and happened to see Su Nian who was in a panic, and simply offered a helping hand, the simplest plot, the simplest thought.

Su Nian picked the violin case with his fingertips, where he just wiped the water.Oh, it turns out that's all.

Ye Rufeng was looking at the ledger under the window sill, with a cup of tea in front of him, and the finance director who knew him softly smiled: "Boss Ye, here we come again!"

Ye Rufeng raised his head in confusion, and looked out of the window. In the hall on the first floor, Su Nian was drinking tea again in the teahouse under the stairs.

The location is not good, the location is cramped, and you can only see the densely packed tables and chairs in the hall, and the private rooms and offices on the second floor.Su Nian liked this position very much, she didn't come here for dinner or tea, she just wanted to see him.Even if she wanted to see him, she didn't need him to meet her or talk to her in person, she just wanted to sit here quietly and see his projection by the window from a distance, that's all.

Ye Rufeng hesitated for a while, then turned his gaze back and cleared his throat: "Here, how did the debt ratio increase last month?"

The chief financial officer withdrew his gossip expression with regret, and began to discuss the account book with Ye Rufeng seriously.

Ye Rufeng knew that he couldn't afford to provoke him, so why bother to start?
Su Nian often comes here, sometimes alone, sometimes with acquaintances. They are quiet and never noisy. Sometimes they eat, sometimes they just drink tea. Ye Rufeng never greets him personally, but everyone seems to know Su Nian Why come, for whom.

Everyone maintained a consistent silence, and gradually, it became an ordinary thing that everyone turned a blind eye to.The two people involved, whether it was Su Nian or Ye Rufeng, didn't say a single word, so there was nothing to talk about.

Only Ye Rufeng knew that the frequency of Su Nian's appearance might be even higher.

The teahouse he frequented recently had a new pipa player, Su Nian. He was surprised. She knew she played the violin, but he didn't know that she was actually such a good pipa player.

He looked at Su Nian playing the pipa from a distance through the bead curtain in the private room. Ying Ying Zhuo Zhuo couldn't see it clearly, but he knew it was beautiful.

Ye Rufeng likes to go for a walk in a small park when he has nothing to do. There is a small artificial lake there, and there are many ducks that are not afraid of people. They will ask tourists for food. Feeding the ducks by the lake takes half a day.

It was through Ye Rufeng that Su Nian knew that when a man misses a woman, his expression is like that.I couldn't tell whether it was sadness or regret, and I just sat quietly like that for a long time.

Ye Rufeng saw Su Nian from afar, carrying a food basket, standing by the lake, staring at him fixedly, as if eager to get closer, but he didn't dare to go forward.He sighed, thought for a long time, stood up, and walked in front of Su Nian: "I'll take you back to school, I'm here, don't come here again."

Su Nian nodded: "Okay." When she lowered her head, tears fell down.Ye Rufeng handed her a handkerchief and didn't say much.

This is Su Nian's first love, it has neither beginning nor end, the man named Ye Rufeng never opened his heart to her.

From that day on, Su Nian never went to Jinxiuyuan to eat, never went to play the pipa in the tea house, and never went to the small park that Ye Rufeng used to commemorate.

Until that time when Su Nian fell ill, she was depressed throughout the spring, and turned to practice the piano desperately. The teacher praised her for making progress, but she just smiled and said nothing.Finally, in early summer, due to exhaustion and malnutrition, she eventually fell ill.She lives in the hospital, watching the palm-sized leaves swaying in the wind outside the window, thinking silently, they are all newly grown leaves this spring, and when they fall this winter, she will forget the sunshine she loved, just like She does.

Ye Rufeng came to see her, she was very surprised.

He lowered his head to peel the apple for her, his profile was quiet and focused, she stared at him blankly, not daring to ask him why he came.

Ye Rufeng said in a low voice, "I'm very bored, I don't have a good temper, let alone considerate."

Su Nian didn't answer, but just gave a soft "hmm".

Ye Rufeng: "You are too young, but I am too old."

Su Nian plucked up the courage to interrupt him: "You know what you want to say, and I know it too. I just want to know why you came today?"

Ye Rufeng handed her the apple: "I don't know either, I just heard that you are sick and want to visit you."

Su Nian smiled, it turned out that he also had a little reluctance to part with her.

Two years later

Su Nian knew that Ye Rufeng was very strange tonight, and he was restless.Originally, he planned to make a trip for Ye Rufeng to Su Nian's house during the Chinese New Year. It was a visit and a marriage proposal, but Ye Rufeng, who had talked well in the past two days, suddenly became silent tonight, as if he didn't want to talk more.

She asked him in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?"

Ye Rufeng showed a forced smile, which seemed to comfort Su Nian, but it made Su Nian even more worried. He replied, "Maybe I'm a little tired, and there are other things."

Su Nian didn't ask much.In the past two years, Su Nian was the happiest Su Nian. She and Ye Rufeng came together. The process was a bit difficult, but they finally came together.

She didn't ask him who was the person he missed in the small park. Maybe it was her instinct that told her that it was a secret that should be buried deeply. Think of those people and things that have nothing to do with her.

At that time, Su Nian did not understand that the most terrifying hidden worry in love would not exist if it was not mentioned.

In those few days, Su Nian felt that Ye Rufeng beside her was always turning his back to her, restless and confused.Three days later, when Su Nian woke up, Ye Rufeng was already fully dressed and his suitcase was placed by his feet. He said, "I'm going back to City C."

Su Nian was confused and uneasy: "What are you going to do?"

"I'll just go for a week, and then I'll be back." Ye Rufeng was so clear-headed and direct, "I went to take care of a friend, and she encountered some problems, and I'll come back after solving her problems. The shortest is a month, and the longest is two or three months. "

"What friend?" Su Nian suddenly realized that Ye Rufeng, who was staring at the lake in a daze, appeared before her eyes. She didn't dare to ask about his past, but it didn't mean she didn't realize it.

"A friend you don't know." Ye Rufeng avoided her question.

"However, if you come back in a month, you will definitely not be able to go home with me in time." Su Nian turned pale.

"Well, let's plan again." Ye Rufeng said calmly and heartlessly.

Su Nian was so sensitive and intelligent, she immediately understood Ye Rufeng's meaning, she asked with difficulty: "Are you breaking up with me?"

"Don't make trouble, it's not so serious." Ye Rufeng comforted her.

Su Nian looked at him quietly: "Do you want me to bring it up when we are together, and do you want me to mention it when we break up?" She is so smart and decisive, and she can see through this man's cowardly thoughts at a glance, "Ye Rufeng, if you go back this time to see you once loved Those who have lived together, then let’s break up like this.”

Ye Rufeng replied quietly: "As you wish."

It was only then that Su Nian felt that his limbs and bones were cold. It turned out that the separation was so simple, and the long-term love was not worth mentioning.

Ye Rufeng turned around with his suitcase and left. Before he opened the door, Su Nian finally asked, "Have you made up your mind? Ye Rufeng, if you turn around again, I won't be here waiting for you anymore."

Ye Rufeng paused, then turned his head helplessly: "Su Nian, you and I already knew that you deserve better." Ye Rufeng had a painful face on his face, "I'm such a bad person, I can't forget it, I just can't forget it, but Hanging on you again, such a filthy person, you deserve better." At the end of the speech, there was already a look of pain on his face.

Su Nian smiled wryly: "Ye Rufeng, you've got me! Do you think that you don't have to bear the burden of your conscience anymore? You're dreaming." She seemed to have exhausted her last strength, "Ye Rufeng, what are you doing now? Put down your luggage, I will pretend that this incident never happened, we should live a good life, otherwise, you will definitely regret it."

Ye Rufeng looked at Su Nian's face, it was still such a beautiful figure, it was clearly in front of his eyes, but it was always beautiful, he gritted his teeth, turned and went out, and never looked back.

Su Nian cried for a while on the bench in the park. Her tears have not stopped since yesterday.She was in unbearable pain, whether it was her heart or her eyes, or even that hidden wound.

In her arms was her newborn daughter, just a day old, her cheeks were pink, and she was sleeping peacefully.

This is really a beautiful child, just like Ye Rufeng, so handsome and beautiful.

Su Nian didn't know why she wanted to give birth to this child. When she got through the period of losing her soul and love, it seemed that the child should be born. She had a bad life, was dropped out of school, and her parents cut off contact with her. With a little money, she barely survived until the baby was born.

After hesitating for a long time, she still made the call from the public phone booth that she had already remembered but dared not to make. No matter what, at least he had to know that he had a daughter, that's all.Su Nian told herself silently.

The phone rang six or seven times before it was picked up. The female voice on the opposite side was lively: "This is Ye Rufeng's call. He is taking a shower. Who is it?"

Su Nian was stunned, chewed on these words, thought for a while, and finally hung up the phone.

She wondered blankly, it turned out that he was already happy, and finally he was happier than her.

and then?Su Nian wanted to die, but felt that this child should not suffer such a fate.

She left her daughter on a park bench and stumbled out of the park.

This is the park where Ye Rufeng used to feed the ducks and remember his past, the girl she didn't know. Now, thousands of miles away, he and her are finally happy.
