1987 My Era

Chapter 348, Confidant, Hug Reason (Subscribe!)
In the past, she was impeccable and could remain calm in the face of anyone.

But now, her fragility and loneliness are gradually revealed, like the tentacles of a devil, once touched, it is impossible to stop.

In the past 26 years, because of family relationships, she no longer cared how many people knew how strong she was. Instead, she always hoped to meet someone who could make her heart beat, who could make her willing to open up and be vulnerable, who could let her put aside all her pride and fall asleep in his arms.

This person cannot be her parents. They know each other too well, and the natural bond between them cannot allow her to completely let go of herself.

It can't be friends or close friends either. Throughout history, when it comes to interests, these people are the hardest to guard against when it comes to stabbing you in the back.

Therefore, this person is very hard to find. Whether you can meet him or not depends entirely on fate. If you meet him or her, he or she will be your lifelong confidant.

That’s right, it’s a confidant!

In her eyes, this confidant is equal to or greater than a lover. To a certain extent, he is a higher level existence than a lover.

Because lovers may betray you after the freshness period has passed. But a man will die for his friend, and a friend will never do that.

For her, half a year ago, the people who were closest to her confidant were Runwen, Siya and Ye Qing.

These three women are the ones who get along the best.

Runwen can ignore her background and laugh, scold and swear as he pleases.

Siya and Ye Qing are caring. They have known each other for almost 20 years and have gone through the ignorant period, adolescence and girlhood together without ever quarreling.

In a nutshell, Runwen could ignore her background. He didn't know her background when he met Siya and Ye Qing.

Like Jiaojiao, Xu Suyun and others who came after the third girl, although they had a very good relationship, the word "profit" was more or less mixed in the process of their acquaintance, and it was not so pure.

However, the word "no" that Li Heng said firmly during the day surprised her a little.

Deep in her heart, there was a voice: she hoped that she and he would always be equal, that he would become more successful day by day, and that he would not depend on anyone for the sake of profit in the future. If possible, she would even rather he surpassed her and looked down on her one day.

After taking a shower, Yu Shuheng walked into the room with a bottle of Moutai in her hand.

Hearing the noise at the door, Li Heng, who was reading a book, looked in the direction of the sound.

For a moment, one stood at the door and the other sat at the head of the bed, looking at each other.

After a long time, Yu Shuheng finally moved.

She closed the door, then walked lightly to his bedside step by step under his gaze.

Yu Shuheng stopped and her eyes met his. She remained silent in the quiet night. Her eyes were like black holes, spinning darkly and deeply without bottom.

"teacher."

After a long time, Li Heng, feeling tremendous pressure, couldn't help but call out.

It was this word "teacher" that brought Yu Shuheng back to her senses instantly, and the powerful aura surrounding her receded like the tide, retracting into her body.

After a while, Yu Shuheng looked away, turned slowly, and walked towards the bedroom.

Door open, door close!
Everything fell silent, as if the scene just now had never happened.

Looking at her dark figure disappearing, Li Heng was dumbfounded and dazed.

In a daze, he roughly guessed her mood tonight.

After a while, Li Heng sighed, put down the book, got up, dressed, got out of bed, put on cotton slippers, and walked towards the door of the compartment.

"Dong dong dong...!"

"Dong dong dong...!"

He knocked on the door with his fingers bent.

After waiting for a while, he knocked on the door again without any response, and shouted in a low voice:
"Dong dong dong...!"

"Teacher Yu, open the door."

With a creaky sound, the door opened this time, revealing Yu Shuheng in black pajamas from the crack of the door.

As soon as they met, Li Heng smelled alcohol and asked, "Are you drinking?"

Yu Shuheng looked him up and down, then stepped aside.

Li Heng stepped sideways through the crack in the door and asked again, "What happened?"

Seeing him pretending to be young, Yu Shuheng laughed and said softly, "Little brother, it's funny that you ask questions even though you know the answer."

Li Heng pouted awkwardly: "Is it funny?"

Yu Shuheng said nothing and stared at him.

During the confrontation, Li Heng felt the pressure again, and then he reached out and snatched the Moutai from her hand, tilted his head back and gulped down two gulps.

He wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve and complained, "This wine is really hard to drink."

Yu Shuheng looked at him, her eyes sparkling with a hint of an inexplicable smile.

Li Heng asked: "Do you still need my guidance?"

"No thanks," she said.

"Okay, then you should go to bed early and stop drinking. Good night." After saying that, Li Heng turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" A voice called out to him from behind.

The sound was not loud, but it seemed like there was a magical power, and he was like he was under a spell and couldn't move.

Yu Shuheng slowly walked around to him, took a step closer, almost touching his chest, and whispered in his ear: "Let's play a game."

Feeling her pressure and smelling the faint scent of a woman, Li Heng took a deep breath and asked, "What game?"

Yu Shuheng said: "Thirds of a time is better than none."

Li Heng looked confused, "What do you mean by three times the limit?"

Yu Shuheng did not explain. After a long silence, she walked to the bedside table, found a pen and paper, and wrote two notes in front of him.

One wrote: Change your destiny.

One wrote: Let it be.

After writing, she put down her pen, crumpled the paper into a ball, trying to make it into the same shape, then put it into the palm of her hand and shook it, then slowly spread it out.

She said, “Pick one.”

Li Heng pointed at himself and said, "I choose?"

Yu Shuheng nodded.

Li Heng asked: "What do these mean?"

Yu Shuheng remained silent and took a sip of wine.

After drinking it, she belatedly realized what was happening and stared at the bottle in a daze.

Li Heng was speechless.

Ten seconds later, she raised her head and opened her red lips slightly: "What were you thinking about just now?"

Li Heng shook his head.

Yu Shuheng said: "Pick one."

Li Heng asked: "Can I not choose?"

Yu Shuheng was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "Okay."

Li Heng frowned: "You change your attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. You were as gentle as jade just now, but now you are as cold as ice?"

Yu Shuheng said, "This is the only chance."

"Chance?"

Li Heng was confused: "If I win the lottery to change my fate, will it be a great fortune?"

Yu Shuheng's eyelids drooped as she played with the wine bottle and said, "I guess so."

Li Heng asked: "What about letting nature take its course?"

Yu Shuheng said: "I'll tell you after I choose."

Li Heng thought about it, grabbed one at random, and was about to open it.

Seeing him unpacking it bit by bit, Yu Shuheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, almost jumping out of her throat. She shouted, "Wait a minute."

Li Heng looked at her: "Almost there."

Yu Shuheng suddenly asked, "Is the teacher beautiful?"

His eyes wandered over her body and he said, "Beautiful!"

Yu Shuheng asked: "How beautiful is it?"

Li Heng thought about it and said from the heart: "It is so beautiful that it is hard to describe. But if temperament is a perfect score, your scholarly temperament is 120 in my opinion." Yu Shuheng read his micro-expressions and saw that he was not lying. She smiled elegantly and said, "Open it."

When she said to dismantle it, she tightened her finger bones and squeezed the Moutai.

Li Heng looked at her and opened it.

Yu Shuheng deliberately didn't look at it, but waited for Feng's answer.

Li Heng looked at it, and then said, "Teacher, it's four words."

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a wave of mixed emotions.

After reading the note three times, Li Heng asked, "What does it mean to let nature take its course?"

Yu Shuheng said, "Go out and close the door."

"what?"

Li Heng exclaimed, "You mean get out?"

Yu Shuheng smiled slightly and nodded when she heard this.

Li Heng: "..."

He asked curiously, "What about changing your fate?"

Yu Shuheng said: "You are not destined to have such a fate."

Staring at the woman so close to him, Li Heng was silent for a while and said, "Teacher, I'm sleepy. Good night!"

Yu Shuheng nodded: "Good night!"

Li Heng really left this time.

If I don't leave now, staying with such a beautiful woman in the dead of night will really test my human nature.

Yu Shuheng looked at the closed door, then sat on the edge of the bed, opened the "change your fate" note in her hand, and remained silent for a long time.

He tried to change his fate three times, but none of them succeeded.

At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Master Zou's words: You have a rich life, but you are trapped by love.

Trapped in love? How long will it last?

She was lost.

...

The next day, when Yu Shuheng got up, Li Heng had not only refined Chapter 9 of "White Deer Plain" written yesterday twice, but had also started Chapter 10.

Chapter 10 is about 2300 words long.

"Good afternoon, teacher." Li Heng, who was just stretching to relax his body, greeted the other party when he saw him enter the study.

Yu Shuheng raised her right wrist and looked at it: "It's almost 12 o'clock, it's quite noisy outside, do you want to continue writing?"

Some words are easy to understand. Li Heng looked through the window at the Zhao family not far away, stood up and said, "It's time for dinner. It's really noisy. Let's cook and eat too."

Yu Shuheng smiled, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

While cooking, he asked, "Why did you sleep so late today?"

"The teacher couldn't sleep last night," she said.

After hearing the word "insomnia", Li Heng paused and tactfully did not ask any further questions.

It was also one meat and one vegetable, tiger skin green pepper with black bean sauce and hot and sour fish fillet. While eating, Li Heng said, "Teacher, I find that you can eat spicy food better and better."

Yu Shuheng was busy, so she just nodded at him and waited until she finished her food before speaking: "I'll stay with you for a week and then go back. I'll pick you up then."

"Okay." After drawing the lots last night, he expected this day to come.

But it was better than expected, she didn't leave immediately today.

After dinner, they went for a walk by the river to help digest the food.

In the afternoon sun, Yu Shuheng, who has a strong bookish air, has changed her usual icy appearance. Her smile is as gentle as the spring breeze, warm and bright. Her red lips and eyes are full of wisdom and cultivation, and her elegant femininity is fully revealed.

Li Heng's eyes involuntarily followed her figure for a long time.

Yu Shuheng saw everything he did out of the corner of her eye, and a smile flashed across her deep black eyes, but she pretended to be unaware of it and concentrated on taking pictures of the Nandina domestica on the roadside with her camera.

Suddenly, two women appeared from the corner to the right of a patch of Nandina domestica.

Yu Shuheng glanced at the other person and turned back to say to Li Heng with a smile, "Li Heng, the scenery here is nice, let's take a photo together."

"okay."

Li Heng came to his senses and followed.

Yu Shuheng then said to the younger of the two women who came over, "Hello, could you please take a photo for us?"

The young girl was dressed in blue. She took a quick look at Yu Shuheng and Li Heng, then took the camera without refusing.

It was only then that Li Heng noticed the appearance of the girl in blue. She had a face as white as jade and skin as white as snow. Her temperament gave people a sense of beauty like curtains rolled up by the west wind and withered lotus leaves listening to the rain. There was an indescribable charm about her.

With just one glance, he seemed to understand who the other person was?
Although I don't know the other party's name, where he is from, or his full name?
But I had already heard of him from Li Ran, Sun Manning and Teacher Yu.

Just as Teacher Yu said, when people are as beautiful as Song Yu and Zhou Shihe, their names are no longer important and they are unforgettable at first sight.

The same is true for this woman.

Yu Shuheng stepped back to Li Heng, naturally put her right hand around his arm, and looked at the camera with dignity.

Li Heng looked down at her hand, somewhat speechless, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Are you sending it to Ye Qing again this time?"

"Yeah." Yu Shuheng hummed lightly and took him a little to the left for a better frame.

Li Heng understood that Teacher Yu wanted to use the entire patch of Nandina domestica by the river as the background for the photos. He did not disobey nor did he pull his hand away. He cooperated and took a few photos together.

After taking four group photos in a row, Yu Shuheng lowered her eyes a little, then smiled and said to the girl in blue: "Take another photo for us."

The girl in blue was very well-mannered. She agreed and even moved to a different angle to take the photo.

Seeing this, Yu Shuheng let go of her arm and, to the surprise of the two women opposite, put her arms around Li Heng's neck and whispered in his ear, "Hold my waist."

"Ah? Again?" Li Heng asked.

"This is how we act like a couple, and Ye Qing will believe it." Yu Shuheng said, having adjusted the micro-expressions on her face and facing the camera.

Li Heng looked at her seriously, and after thinking for a moment, he put his arms around her waist and abdomen, and looked at the camera together.

With a "click", the photo is taken.

Yu Shuheng left his arms and walked towards the girl in blue. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." The girl in blue returned the camera to her, glanced at Li Heng again, and continued walking forward with her companions.

After the two women walked away, Li Heng reacted and asked, "Are you from the Zhao family? Are you here to attend the funeral?"

"It should be. The teacher met them in Xi'an yesterday." Yu Shuheng said.

Walking around the Nandina domestica, Yu Shuheng asked with a half-smile, "Aren't you curious about that girl just now?"

Li Heng said: "I'm not curious, you told me last night."

Yu Shuheng said, "How is it?"

Li Heng said calmly: "It's not that great, it has nothing to do with us."

After walking a little further, Yu Shuheng suddenly said, "They may have recognized us."

Li Heng thought for a while and then asked, "Are you talking about the Spring Festival Gala?"

Yu Shuheng nodded slightly.

In fact, she vaguely felt that the elders of the Zhao family might have guessed her family background.

This guess came true. In the evening, the village chief and the Zhao family came and invited the two to a banquet.

Faced with the other party's enthusiasm, Yu Shuheng, who had just arrived, did not refuse. She walked into the study and said to Li Heng: "It's getting dark. Let's go over and have a meal. You can also take a rest and come back to write later."

"Row."

Man is iron and food is steel. As a foodie, he would never go against his stomach, not to mention that he didn't have to cook anything himself and there was ready-made food.

ps: Don’t push the second woman, it has been planned for March a long time ago, and she must see blood to celebrate the New Year.

I've been weighing the pros and cons of breaking something exciting or playing it safe.

I just checked the backstage, and I have updated 19 words this month, which is not bad. After returning from Bailuyuan, there are many lines to be expanded. I hope to update more after the new year. Oh, I shouldn't have come back so early. There are too many trivial things at home. I regret it.
