Chapter 27
Only then did Song Huanxi think of it, and glanced at Chen Brush Guoshui's pen name——

Xiangjiang prodigal son!

Good guy, this pseudonym smells like washing pot water!
It was also because she was careless, she didn't expect Xiao Chen to be such a mess.

It took Song Huanxi a while to calm down, and continued to read:

Staring at Winnie's moving blue eyes, I opened my mouth with difficulty: "Winnie, we Chinese will save deeper communication until the wedding night. This is our tradition."

After several times, I probably always rejected her with the same set of excuses, and Winnie gradually became sullen.

After another all-nighter, Winnie completely disappeared from my life.

The uniform prom began to become boring. It happened that Robert failed two subjects in a row and received a warning from the school. After discussing it, we decided to suspend the prom and focus on studying.

I resumed the routine of getting up early, and when I saw the familiar signboard of the bakery, I always stopped and fled in despair.

I thought that Winnie and I would never see each other again.

Until I was at the gate of the opera house and saw her getting off a black car, wearing a short skirt and kissing a young man passionately.

I thought I would rush up angrily, but in fact, like a sewer rat, I left in despair after witnessing the whole process of their kissing.

Later, I learned from Robert that Winnie had entered a higher social circle, a group of cynical noble youths.

I am a little worried about Winnie's situation. As far as I know, the speed of the group of noble youths changing female partners is comparable to the frequency of rain in London.

My worries were not superfluous. On another foggy morning, I bumped into Winnie who was lingering downstairs in the apartment building. She was wearing a long black skirt and a camel coat, and her cheeks were as rosy as apples in the past. Pale as a corpse.

I took her upstairs and gave her a cup of hot milk, but she didn't drink it. She opened her big blue eyes and cried, "Chen, I'm pregnant, but he doesn't plan to marry me!"

"He threw me a hundred pounds and told me to go!"

She covered her face and cried bitterly: "What should I do, Chen! What should I do—"

My complexion must be ugly. While I feel sorry for Winnie, I also gloat a little. This is probably the bad nature of men!

I know that Winnie's family are devout Catholics, and she would not accept the option of aborting the child.

Having a child out of wedlock is also unacceptable to her family.

This seems to be a dead end, unless—

My heart was fighting violently, my lips moved——

"Marry me, Winnie!"

For a moment, I thought this sentence came out of my mouth.

Until my roommate, Robert, strode in from the door, pulled Winnie up on the sofa, held her shoulders with both hands, and looked directly into her eyes:
"Marry me, let's raise this child together!"

Winnie was startled, then threw herself into Robert's arms, crying bitterly.

Different from the sad cry just now, her cry now is more like a downpour after a long drought.

At this moment, I feel that I am so redundant.

They held their wedding soon. The day before the wedding, the father of the bride gave Robert a powerful left hook without hesitation, so that he could only appear at the wedding in the image of a one-eyed pirate.

While waiting for the bride to put on makeup, Robert and I lighted a cigarette tacitly, and the two of us watched the smoke in silence.

I took out a check from my pocket, which was the maximum amount I could save after the minimum living needs for the next six months: the children were about to be born, and they needed money, and this was the only thing I could do. done.

Robert took the check unceremoniously, glanced at the amount, carefully folded it, and hid it in the inner pocket of his suit. He exhaled the last smoke ring: "Brother, I have to tell you something."

He stammered and told me that he was drunk the night before Winnie suddenly disappeared, and Winnie was also drunk.

Because I have repeatedly emphasized the importance of the wedding night, Winnie knew that there was no possibility of being with me, so she left in despair and was deceived by that smooth-talking kid.

I couldn't take it anymore and sent Robert a right hook.

Well, now his eyes are symmetrical.

But in the end, I patted Robert on the shoulder: "Thank you, good brother."

This is really the best ending, my best brother married the girl I love, isn't it?

Robert put his arms around my shoulders, and changed his usual hippie smile: "You're welcome, I really like Winnie!"

"She'll make a good wife!"

Before the words were finished, Winnie walked out of the dressing room in a pure white wedding dress, accompanied by her mother.

God, she is so beautiful!

I regret it, damn it, why listen to that old antique at home!

Unfortunately, it's too late.

I could only watch as she exchanged vows with my best brother and said "I do"!
……

The past is over. After returning to China, I had contact with Robert and his wife from time to time, but never saw each other again.

Until a month ago, I suddenly learned that Robert was coming to work in Hong Kong.

Surprised, unavoidably apprehensive, what does the London beauty look like now?

……

No, gone?

Song Huanxi searched the newspaper in his hand several times in disbelief, but he couldn't find the following, and he didn't even see the words "to be continued".

I only saw a row of small pitiful reminders: This story is purely fictitious, and any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Song Huanxi was furious, isn't this the No. [-] fine wine and pot-washing water? !
Really good writing!
no!The next time you see Chen brushing pots of water, you must ask how Winnie is now and how she is doing!
Chen Qi'an, who was in the office, sneezed three times in a row. Looking at the blank manuscript paper in front of him with only the title Parisian Beauty, he decided to take a little vacation for himself——

Well, when Mrs. Chen asked, she said that she was working overtime today.

Men, they always have to work overtime once or twice a week.

It's a pity that I don't have much money in my pocket, and I can't go to the taverns I often go to. Chen Qi'an suddenly remembered that Song Huanxi said that she worked at Chiji Wonton Noodle Restaurant.

Eating a bowl of wonton noodles, looking at Song Huanxi, and asking her if she read those law textbooks seems to be a good itinerary.

Chen Shuaguoshui quickly dug a hole for himself.

……

After Song Huanxi was annoyed, she thought back to Chen's story about a beautiful woman in London, and felt that the more she thought about it, the more interesting it became. The plot was full of twists and turns, unexpected and reasonable.

It is unexpected that Robert is willing to marry Winnie and accept other people's children. Are the British so enlightened?
The protagonist's thoughts and actions are typical Chinese men.

Song Huanxi couldn't help but read the story carefully again. This time, seeing the protagonist pushing Winnie away because he couldn't make a promise, he didn't think he was a scumbag.

Most of the living expenses given later also illustrate his character.

The only dissatisfaction is probably that I didn't say the phrase I will marry you!
Song Huanxi felt that it was understandable, but also deeply regretful.

 See you tomorrow. If you have a monthly pass, vote at the end of the month. It should be doubled.
