Longmen Memoirs
Page 360
He looked at Chen, picked up the dishes on the table and put them into Chen's bowl. Chen watched his movements.
"Who would be nervous?" Chen gritted his teeth, "Knowing it on purpose, don't think I don't know what you are paying attention to."
Chen Cai would not admit that he was nervous, but he was just a little unaccustomed to it. It must have been because of Chen Mo's weird behavior.
"I was just thinking that after dinner, let's go out for a walk together. I haven't been to the night market on Longmen Street for a long time. It has changed a lot over the years. I don't remember some places as clearly as you."
Chen suddenly fell silent. She looked at Chen Mo who said these words, and looked at his face that was familiar and unfamiliar to her, from the separation in Londinium to the reunion in Longmen.
Chen couldn't explain how he felt now. He was indeed back, but Chen didn't seem as happy as he thought. Maybe it was because his words reminded Chen of the past, or maybe because too many things had happened. These things were too different from what they thought when they were children, and Chen felt his fatigue.
"Have you ever thought about coming back here?" Chen asked, looking into Chen Mo's eyes.
"My answer may disappoint you, Hui Jie." Chen Mo said, "Before I met you, I thought I would never have anything to do with this city in the future."
"But it's different now. Now I want to stay here, and I want to be with you, because you are here, so no matter what happens in the future, I have to tell myself that I must come back."
"Hmm...Fancy words, don't think I will believe you if you say this."
"I think so too. So..." Chen Mo replied.
Then Chen saw him reach into his bag.
Before opening it, Chen seemed to have guessed what was in the small box. Although he was already prepared, Chen was still stunned after opening it.
Her fingers subconsciously clenched and then slowly loosened. Under the gentle light, she watched Chen Mo stretch out his hand to her.
Maybe in the past, Chen never thought that he would have this day in the future.
"Miss Chen Huijie, can you give me an answer?"
Chen came back to his senses and looked at the silver ring in Chen Mo's hand.
"...Not sincere." She said dissatisfied, but still put her left hand on Chen Mo's palm and watched him slowly put the silver ring on her ring finger.
At this moment, something finally seemed to settle in Chen's heart.
Perhaps it was at this time that Chen finally felt at ease with the faint uneasiness and worry in Chen's heart about the love he had gained overnight due to impulsiveness and reluctance.
Chapter 52 Miss Chen Huijie has a hostage
Chen Huijie, who is walking beside her holding hands, has a face that can be called exquisite. If you look carefully, you will find that there is a touch of softness hidden in Chen's heroic eyebrows.
Her cool dress exudes the vitality of youth. When the sandals under her slender legs step on the road, they will make a crisp sound. Her long blue hair is scattered, covering her temples. Occasionally, when the night wind blows, the hanging The tips of your hair will rise gently with the night wind.
Chen Mo kept paying attention to the girl beside him.
The chaotic lights on the street reflected on Chen. Her eyelashes trembled slightly on the side of her face, and her red pupils reflected the night scene of Longmen Street. She seemed to be able to easily integrate into this city. She has always been inseparable from Longmen.
When Chen looked back at the past, he suddenly realized that Chen Mo was in his gradually blurred memory. Now he could only see his face if he raised his gaze slightly. Especially when walking side by side with him, this feeling became more and more intense. It's getting clearer.
Chen never thought that if he was not lucky enough to meet him again in Londinium, it might be a different scene when he saw him again a long time later, a scene completely different from now.
There may no longer be a place for Chen Huijie.
Chen himself knew it.
She knew that sometimes it was so difficult to see each other again once we were separated. She knew that separation was the norm in this land. She also knew that what she did at the beginning might just be impulsive and out of fear.
She just doesn't want to lose anymore, and she doesn't want to continue to be a powerless person.
Chen Mo hid a lot of things from her, some of which Chen knew but didn't ask, and some of which Chen knew that even if he asked, he might not answer truthfully.
Chen also knew that he, this city, and Wei Yanwu, her nominal uncle, had many secrets that she didn't know. She hoped that one day he could tell her these in person, but Chen also knew that if one day he really Telling myself this will definitely put me in a dilemma.
Chen can not care about his past, but Chen hates the feeling of having everything in someone's hands. What Chen hates even more is that he thinks he is on her side without asking for her opinion or even giving her any choice. The act of doing something from a perspective.
But at this point, Chen Mo refused to change despite repeated admonitions, leaving Chen helpless.
Maybe Chen was accommodating him, accommodating Chen Mo's thoughts that made Chen Mo unhappy, accommodating some parts of Chen Mo's character that he couldn't get along with, just like Chen Mo often accommodating Chen, accommodating her domineering, accommodating her Unreasonable, insistent and embarrassing.
Life goes on like this, accommodating each other and understanding each other. It is inevitable that various contradictions and conflicts will arise in life due to their respective personalities. When the novelty of love passes, what is left to each other is only the love for this person. Accustomed and accustomed, in the past life, I was accustomed to her existence, accustomed to her company, and also accustomed to this extra part of my life. It is difficult to let go. The pain of three years, the itch of seven years, and so on. After that, there is a lifetime of companionship and separation.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo squeezed Chen's hand slightly.
Fortunately, he and Chen fell in love overnight. While they were in love, they were also strangers to each other. Fortunately, Chen Huijie was used to creating all kinds of accidents for people, which seemed to make Chen Mo never feel tired of her throughout his life.
Sensing his movement, Chen couldn't help but turn his head and look at him.
The night wind blows in my face, from the bright, noisy and lively commercial street to the stone road along the river. The high-rise buildings in the city on the other side of the river are brightly lit, and all kinds of gorgeous lights are reflected on the river. Among the scattered lights in the dark night, the river Slowly sailing past the cruise ship.
"What's wrong?" Chen suddenly asked.
"I was thinking that the letter I received in Kazdale mentioned that I had a daughter, but I didn't see her at home." Chen Mo stopped and looked at Chen beside him.
"Ms. Chen Huijie, don't you want to give me an explanation?"
In the light night, under the street lights along the river, Chen Qianqian's shadow fell at her feet, the river breeze blew her hair, and her thin lips reflected the crystal color. At that moment, Chen Qianqian made people feel... Heartbeat.
"What explanation do you want?" Chen asked, and seemed to have thought of something: "Wait, you said you believed it, the fox told me clearly at the time..."
Chen, who understood that he was being tricked, didn't look very good, and even the way he looked at Chen Mo wasn't very good.
"The relationship between you two is really good."
Chen muttered in a complicated tone.
"It's very good." Chen Mo did not deny it.
Chen glared at him.
I heard Chen Mo say again.
"So good that when I first met the fox, I almost thought she was here to kill me. I was even prepared to strike before she did."
"...You never told me about this."
"Because these are no longer important, Hui Jie, the fox may not like you very much. She has some opinions on you, but she will not harm you. You don't have to believe her or try to contact her, but if one day, If I'm not at Longmen and you encounter any problems that you can't solve on your own, you can go find the fox."
"What do you mean? Where do you want to go?"
"I mean what if, what if..."
Chen Mo looked at Chen and said, but Chen looked at him without looking away, as if he had read through his thoughts.
"Do you think I will believe it? You suddenly said such incomprehensible things." Chen Mo didn't want to ask back: "You can tell me what you want to do in advance. Don't let me hate you anymore, Chen Mo, I don't want to be worried because of you anymore. I don’t want to experience the same feeling again as before.”
"..."
She is still ruthless and does not know how to give in. It is better to say that Chen, who is so sincere, makes people care.
how many years.
Chen Mo no longer walks on the streets of Longmen like he does now, holding Chen's hand, not thinking about anything, not considering or weighing, no need to worry about anything, no need to worry about anything, just holding Chen's hand, like So carefree as a child.
Longmen changed its appearance, and Chen and he also grew up, but they failed to pass each other by and lose each other as they grew up.
Chen Mo suddenly felt that maybe everything he had done along the way was just for today, in order to one day realize the small and humble extravagant wish in his heart, in order to one day be able to live in this distant Longmen with what he hoped for. People have a home of their own.
But Chen Mo still couldn't help but think of another person.
He thought of Tallulah.
Chen Mo's hesitation seemed to be an admission. Chen subconsciously wanted to let go of the hand held by him, but after this idea came to her mind, she held her hand tighter.
She just looked at Chen Mo, who didn't refute, and didn't know what she should continue to say.
**I hope Chen Mo can tell him otherwise, but Chen Mo is not that stupid. She can tell the difference between real and fake. Even if she forces herself to imagine, Chen feels that she cannot do such a thing.
"I wanted to tell you later." Chen Mo sighed, and he admitted Chen's guess.
He's not lying anymore.
"On the way back from Kazdaele, I took a detour to Ursus and went to the city territory that originally belonged to the Duke of Cosiche. There I found some clues about her."
Chen didn't answer. She suddenly became quiet and pursed her lips, but Chen Mo could feel Chen's hand getting harder and harder.
"Is she okay?"
Chen asked, her finger inadvertently touched the ring on her fingertip, and the words she wanted to continue to say were suddenly blocked in her throat.
She slightly put the hand with the ring behind her back, as if she was escaping from something, something that made her reluctant to let go, and also made her unable to feel at ease.
"I don't know. The Duke was assassinated several years ago, and her whereabouts were unknown overnight. Now those cities have long been divided up, and she has left no traces there, but I think she must still be alive, somewhere in Ursus. It’s a place we don’t know, and she won’t die so easily.”
"You want to go find her? If...I mean if..."
Chen couldn't continue, she seemed to be struggling.
"If you don't allow me to go, I won't go." Chen Mo replied, as if the choice was put in Chen's hands.
But in fact, there was already an answer to this matter from the beginning.
"You knew I couldn't stop you, right?" Chen said helplessly. She suddenly smiled, but the smile seemed to be self-deprecating, and it was so powerless that it made people feel distressed.
Chen lowered his gaze. She lowered her head slightly. On the bank of the river, people couldn't see her expression clearly. She just held Chen Mo's hand tighter and tighter.
Chen didn't know how to face himself. 【-
Until a photo cut out of a newspaper came into Chen's sight. The girl in the photo had long silver hair, and her familiar and unfamiliar face became a little blurry on the yellowed paper of the newspaper.
"I searched for a long time, in many cities, and in the end the only thing I found of value was this blurry photo in an old newspaper. Is she doing well, where is she, and what is she doing? I know nothing about it. Know."
Chen Mo said, and after a moment Chen raised his head.
"What do you want to say?"
"I want to say that even if I don't go, you will go one day. You can't let her go, Hui Jie, we can't let her go. Your classmates in Londinium told me that you worked hard to train yourself and practice Swordsmanship, wanting to become stronger, she doesn’t know why you are like this, but I know, you and I both know why, because I have experienced the same thing as you."
Chen Mo said.
"Tallulah is the only obsession left in our hearts, because if you don't find her, you will never be stable in your life, because if you don't see her again, there will always be something between you and me, even though we love each other. We can pretend not to care, although we may be able to make ourselves accept it, but Huijie, can you let yourself treat this as nothing happened?"
"Let one day pass, and when we receive news about Xiaota again, it may be a bad result. Of course we can live in Longmen, you and I, our family, but I know that you will still think of her, and we The happier you live and the more you get, the more guilt and debt you will feel in your heart, until one day I lose you because of this."
"impossible."
"Don't lie to yourself, Hui Jie."
"..."
Chen wanted to refute, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't find any excuse to refute.
What Chen Mo said seemed to be destined to happen. She seemed to know him better than she did. Chen Mo knew clearly that if that day came, she would definitely throw down the dragon gate.
She will definitely go.
The only thing Chen was afraid of was that Chen Mo would never come back, because Chen knew in his heart what Tallulah meant to Chen Mo. Chen was not that confident yet, but Chen couldn't say such words.
She couldn't say it with peace of mind.
Chen fell silent for a moment.
"Are you afraid that if I find her, I will stay with her?" Chen Mo suddenly asked.
Chen did not answer or deny.
Chen Mo took back his hand. The photo in his hand suddenly ignited in the breeze by the river. The flames licked a corner of the photo. Chen Mo loosened his fingers and watched the burning newspaper being blown by the night wind towards the river.
"you……"
Chen was stunned for a moment. She subconsciously wanted to grab the photo that was going away.
But Chen Mo held Chen's hand.
He didn't look back, didn't look at the girl he had longed for in the past, and let her drift further and further away on a gust of river wind until the flames disappeared and the ashes carried away by the wind could not be seen.
Chen Huijie was held in his arms by him.
He bent down and gently rested his chin on the top of Chen's head.
"I have been carrying this photo with me from Ursus to Longmen, because I think you still miss Xiaota in your heart, and I also know that you must not be able to let it go."
Chen's body slowly relaxed.
"There are some things that you didn't ask me about, and I didn't tell you, but those things won't disappear just because we know it well and run away. Before returning to Longmen, I thought about whether to stay in Usa Si, but this idea just came into my mind and I already had the answer in my heart, Hui Jie."
"Maybe I did have some regrets in my heart in the past, and maybe these regrets may accompany me throughout my life, but I know that those regrets cannot make me look back, and I also know what I should choose now."
"Even if I can't guarantee you, even if I say this, you will still have doubts in your heart." Chen Mo said: "But Hui Jie, there is one thing I can promise you. I can promise you that no matter what happens, I will come back. I can promise You, even if time passes, even if the mountains and rivers change, I will definitely come back to you alive."
Chen finally responded.
Chen Huijie slowly raised her hand and hugged his shoulder.
