Chapter 57
Chapter 57
There are many other photos in the photo album that I turned to, all of which were at the birthday party that year, and several of them were of Ming Rong.She is wearing a pure white dress, or holding a wine glass to talk with people, or playing with the accompanist, the sun is shining brightly, her beautiful peach eyes are slightly curved, and the bottom of the pupil is rippling.
Ming Rong left a lot of photos during her lifetime, and most of the concerts were recorded, but this was the first time Xie Fei saw her in someone else's photo album.
It was the first time seeing her again in so many years.
Since Ming Rong's death, Xie Fei has always maintained a state of not listening or watching, until today, until now.
The twilight of early winter spread across the field of vision like water, and the afterglow of the setting sun outside the floor-to-ceiling windows gathered in the sky, and the stars lit up in the sky at two or three o'clock. He stood under here, stood outside here, suddenly, his thoughts came to him.
And the next moment, Grandma Gu's words pulled Xie Fei's wandering thoughts back.
The kind and kind old lady pushed the presbyopic glasses on the bridge of her nose and said with a smile: "Your eyes are exactly the same as your mother's, and they are very beautiful."
Then he asked with concern: "I haven't seen her for many years, and I haven't heard of any concerts she has given in recent years. Is she okay now?"
This was also the first time Xie Fei was asked this kind of question.
Ming Rong's death was sudden and sad. Back then, the funeral was held in a low-key manner. Only a small number of relatives and friends were notified, and the media was never told.
Xie Fei looked at the old man in front of her, remained silent for a while, lowered her gaze, and said softly, "She passed away three years ago."
"How could it be, she is still so young, why..." Grandma Gu stared blankly on the spot, then realized her gaffe, adjusted her expression, softened her tone, and said, "Sorry, Xiaofei."
Xie Fei pursed her lower lip, wanting to smile, but before the corners of her lips curled up, Gu Fangyan grabbed her hand.
"Grandma, Mom, let's go down first." Gu Fangyan said, his tone was firm and undeniable, and he took Xie Fei out of the study directly after speaking.
The corridor is empty, with soft light flowing on the brown wooden floor, melodious music coming from below, passing over the paintings on the wall, and the evergreen potted plants in the corridor floating out from the half-opened windows at the end, Fall into the early winter wind.
"I'm sorry." Gu Fangyan stood in front of Xie Fei, looked down at him fixedly, and apologized in a low voice, "I didn't expect them to ask this."
Xie Fei bent her eyes, completed the unfinished smile, and said to Gu Fangyan in a relaxed tone: "I'm fine. She's been gone for many years, and I'm used to it."
Gu Fangyan stretched out his hand and touched the corner of Xie Fei's lips with his fingertips, smoothing out the upward curve, "If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh."
"How do you know that I don't really want to laugh?" The expression on Xie Fei's face faded, and gradually, another emotion appeared, and she burst out laughing.
"Because I like you." Gu Fangyan grabbed him again and led him downstairs.
The study is on the third floor, and Gu Fangyan's room is on the second floor. They walked slowly, and suddenly, Xie Fei noticed that Gu Fangyan had something in his other hand.
"Why did you take out the photo?" Xie Fei raised her jaw and asked Gu Fangyan.He held Xie Fei with his left hand, and what was held in his right hand was the photo Grandma Gu took out from the album just now to show them.
Gu Fangyan said solemnly: "Of course our photos should be placed with us."
"You didn't say hello, so you're not afraid of your grandma getting angry?" Xie Fei asked quietly.
"Print another copy and send it to her." Gu Fangyan said indifferently.
Xie Fei snorted and suddenly felt that Gu Fangyan, who was persistent for such a trivial matter, was cute.
They walked side by side through the long corridor and went downstairs on the wooden steps. Xie Fei hooked Gu Fangyan's finger with her finger and said, "Speaking of which, I don't even remember such a thing."
"Seeing the photo, I remembered something." Gu Fangyan whispered.
That year, the spring in Australia was sunny and warm. A little beautiful Omega said that he wanted to perform like his mother, but he couldn't find a suitable accompanist. With the strength of breastfeeding, he was pushed onto the piano bench.
It can be seen from this that this bastard has been such a bastard since he was a child. He wants what others don't want.It really fits his WeChat avatar.
But Xie Fei asked like that, which made Gu Fangyan a little upset.He tilted his head to look at Xie Fei, and asked blankly, "Have you seen all the photos at that time, or haven't you remembered anything?"
"I can't even remember what happened 11 minutes ago, let alone 11 years ago?" Xie Fei said it confidently, but Gu Fangyan's expression was too bad, he glanced at it, and quickly changed his words: "...It seems that there is such a thing Let's do it."
Gu Fangyan sneered.
Xie Fei added: "I really remembered, you have had facial paralysis since you were a child."
Gu Fangyan turned to face him: "Heh."
Xie Fei: "..."
He raised his hands, patted Gu Fangyan's face, and squeezed towards the center, making Young Master Gu pouted, and said with a smile: "Okay, your birthday, you are the biggest, you never have facial paralysis."
Young Master Gu endured it for a few seconds, and finally couldn't take it anymore, and slapped the man's paw away.
He brought Xie Fei to the room and opened the door, only to see that it was dark inside, the blackout curtains were drawn tightly, and the lights were not turned on, only the light projected on the wall.
Accompanied by a deliberately scary sound effect, Gu Fangyan unceremoniously turned on the overhead light, and then heard Xia Lu and Duan Yiming who were sitting side by side on the sofa "hiss" in unison.
"Did you two die seeing the light?" Xie Fei was amused, leaning against the wall and laughing, "What are you looking at?"
"Horror movie." Duan Yiming said.
Xie Fei tilted her head to look at the projection wall, recognized the characters inside, and asked, "America?"
"Yeah, would you like this too? Come and watch together." Xia Lu immediately raised his buttocks to make room for Xie Fei.
Gu Fangyan walked to the desk, pulled out a book from the bookshelf, and was about to clip the photo into it when Duan Yiming spotted it with sharp eyes and asked, "Brother Gu, what kind of photo is that?"
When Xia Lu heard the word "photograph", he had an intuition that there was something adulterous about it, so he ran over immediately, and stopped Gu Fangyan a second before he closed the book.
There are actually many people in the photo, but the protagonist can be identified at a glance.Needless to say, Gu Fangyan was sitting on the piano bench, and the boy playing the violin had obvious characteristics.Xia Lu looked at the photo, then turned to look at Xie Fei, repeated this several times, and said in shock: "My God, it's you and Xie Fei!"
"It was taken in the spring of 2008. So you have met and shared the same frame more than ten years ago?" Duan Yiming also came over, "What kind of earth-shattering story of a bamboo horse from heaven is this!"
"You are invincible!" Xia Lu clenched his fists, made a gesture of raising the microphone, and asked Gu Fangyan: "When will the two of you get married?"
"It's none of your business." Gu Fangyan remained expressionless.
"We are good brothers! Of course it's none of our business!" Xia Luyu was dissatisfied.
Gu Fangyan was too lazy to talk to them, so he closed the book and stuffed it back on the shelf.
"It's so boring to put it in a book, frame it and frame it!"
"The gown that motherfuckers wear can be rounded off as a wedding photo."
Xia Lu and Duan Yiming booed.
With a paralyzed face, Xie Fei found the remote control from the sofa, and threatened: "Are you still watching American Horror? If not, I'll change it."
"You can change it, you can change it, we can just look at the photos." Xia Lu waved his hand indifferently.
"That's right." Duan Yiming agreed.
Xie Fei: "..."
How could there be such a brazen person in this world?
Now that these two people have said this, of course Xie Fei immediately quit the broadcast and picked out a few to watch.
Gu Fangyan accompanied Xie Fei for a while, when his father and grandfather arrived, they went downstairs one after another.
The elders of the Gu family are not the type to hold a lot of power. On the contrary, they have given some power to the younger generation very early on, allowing them to practice.Gu Fangyan was trained as an heir, and now that he is an adult, it means the transfer of greater power, and it also means that from now on, Gu Fangyan will officially stand on the stage.
This is also the meaning of this birthday party. Many celebrities and dignitaries were invited as witnesses, and Gu Fangyan was asked to make friends.
The hall was full of brilliance, with swaying skirts and an intoxicating fragrance. The beautiful Miss Omega sat down in front of the grand piano and played a piece of Beethoven, which won applause from all the halls.Xie Fei was indifferent to this kind of occasion. After being led by Gu's mother to see Gu's father and Gu's grandfather, she ate something casually and ran back upstairs.
Xia Lu and Duan Yiming were ordered by their parents and elder brothers to stay on the first floor to meet their business partners and friends.
He was alone, revisiting a certain classic drama at double speed.
In the middle of the night, the dew was heavy, and the chill came in through the gaps in the windows. Even with the heater on, sitting on the ground would still be icy cold. Xie Fei moved into the chair, kicked off her shoes and sat cross-legged, watching while eating ice cream.
Xie Fei brought up a lot of ice cream, vanilla, chocolate, mocha and almond, and finished eating slowly, several episodes had already been played on the screen.
It was nearly nine o'clock, and a message from Pei Xingyuan was received on the screen, asking when he would go back.
The lights in the room were not turned on, but the curtains were drawn, and the light from outside was reflected into the room, illuminating Xie Fei's side face together with the light from the screen.He stood up and faced out the window, through the forest, he could see a corner of the lake covered with stars, and the waves were very bright when the wind passed by.
Xie Fei gazed at Mirror Moon Lake in the night, and after a few minutes, replied: "There is still a while."
He didn't stay in the room anymore, went downstairs quietly, left through the back door, and went out to breathe.
There is a plum grove behind this villa. The temperature on the mountain is colder than that on the mountain, and the plum blossoms are already in full bloom.It is a white plum, the evening wind blows, and the petals are lifted up one after another, like a fine snowfall.
Standing under the fluttering plum petals, Xie Fei let out a breath of white air.
After an unknown amount of time, Xie Fei heard the sound of rustling footsteps approaching from far to near. Immediately afterwards, there was an extra coat on his shoulders, and he was hugged from behind.
"I thought you were gone." Gu Fangyan put his hands around Xie Fei's waist, resting his forehead on the back of his neck, and whispered.
The air is filled with the aroma of wine, scattered in the wind overflowing with plum fragrance, slightly intoxicating.
"I'm planning to leave, it's too boring." Xie Fei's nostrils fluttered, and she said slowly, "Did you drink again?"
"A little red wine." Gu Fangyan said. After speaking, he moved his palm to cover Xie Fei's stomach and belly, and said quietly, "You ate the ice cream."
Xie Fei immediately denied it: "I didn't."
After drinking, Gu Fangyan's emotions will be amplified than usual, especially the sense of uneasiness. He has been looking for Xie Fei for a long time, and he has searched every corner of the whole building. The vacant place was finally filled.
He rubbed against Xie Fei's neck, making it a little itchy, shrank forward, and immediately tightened his hands to fix Xie Fei.
"You think I didn't see it? I can see it clearly." Gu Fangyan snorted softly, "You took a whole three cups and sneaked them upstairs like a squirrel transporting food. After eating, you didn't dispose of the cups. Put it on my desk now."
Now that the evidence is solid, Xie Fei no longer denies her actions, leans back, leans on Gu Fangyan's shoulder, and asks with a smile, "Why didn't I know that your rhetoric is so exaggerated?"
"After eating so much, does your stomach feel uncomfortable?" Gu Fangyan lowered his eyes to ignore Xie Fei's teasing, rubbed his stomach, and asked softly.
"It's okay." Xie Fei said.
Gu Fangyan said "hmm": "Go and drink some soup later."
Having said that, Gu Fangyan hugged Xie Fei and did not let go. Xie Fei tried to take two steps forward, but it turned out that he was dragging Gu Fangyan forward.
"Are you capable of letting me go to drink soup, but not capable of letting me go? Or do you want to stick with me in the past like this?" Xie Fei was quite dissatisfied with the large pendant on her body.
Gu Fangyan still didn't move.
He complained half-truthfully, with a particularly disgusting tone: "Brother Gu, why are you so clingy?"
"Don't like me like this?" Gu Fangyan spoke out after a while, his tone was a bit dull, it sounded like he was wronged.
Xie Fei could almost imagine this person's expression, the tone of indifference remained unchanged, with some downcast eyes and curled lips added.His heart softened suddenly, he tilted his head, and said, "...No."
When the clinker's voice fell to the ground, I felt something warm and soft touch the back of my neck.
Gu Fangyan was kissing him.
My dear, it's still where the Omega glands are!
"What are you doing?" Xie Fei was shocked.
And after he finished speaking, Gu Fangyan not only didn't move away, but also took a bite on it.
It's not the kind of fierce bite of the mark, without pheromone injection, the force is neither light nor heavy, but when such a deadly place is touched, there is still a kind of electrified tingling coming out of the depths.Xie Fei's waist softened in an instant. If it wasn't for Gu Fangyan's hug, he might have fallen to the ground.
"A Fei, I like you so much." Gu Fangyan whispered with his lips pressed against him.
Xie Fei gritted her teeth and couldn't stop trembling: "Gu Fangyan, are you a beast?"
Gu Fangyan was thoughtful, probably inspired by the word "beast" that Xie Fei said.He pinched Xie Fei's waist and asked, "How about I make you fatter?"
"Not so good!" Xie Fei rolled his eyes.
"You had dimples when you laughed when you were young, but they are gone now." Gu Fangyan said.
"It means that I lost weight successfully!" Xie Fei said fiercely.
"It's so cute with dimples."
"Then you and the photo are together!"
The mountain breeze was quiet and surrounded by the fragrance of flowers, Gu Fangyan snorted and laughed, helped Xie Fei tidy up his collar, pulled up the front, and asked him to turn to face himself, and put his forehead against his forehead, saying, "I'm very happy."
"I'm not happy." Xie Fei remained expressionless.
"I'm glad you've been here all this time." Gu Fangyan said again, the wine, the night and the fragrance of plums mixed in his cold voice, which was indescribably pleasant.
Xie Fei was teased from the bottom of her heart, but she still put on a cold face: "I'm leaving now."
After speaking, he turned around, but Gu Fangyan grabbed him back as soon as he stretched out his hand.
"I can't go." He whispered in his ear.
The author has something to say:
Later, Xie Fei was no longer Xie Fei, but was raised by Gu Fangyan as Xie Fei
