The Cliff of Eternal Sun

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Ji Suian received another call from a stranger. Since meeting Wei Mu again, the number of calls he has received in the past few days has almost surpassed the sum of the past year.

On the opposite side who claimed to be a policeman from the police station this time, Ji Suian frowned, and was about to ask why the police station called him, when the policeman on the other end asked him if he knew Wei Mu.

He subconsciously wanted to say "I don't know", but the second before he spoke, his rationality grabbed his emotions and asked, "What's wrong?"

"He stole the money and is currently being held at our police station. He doesn't have any ID on him. He only gave us this phone number. If you are his family or friends, please come here."

Although Ji Suian didn't intend to take care of Wei Mu's affairs, he still couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable: "Wei Mu stole money?"

"Yes." The tone of the policeman on the other side also had the strangeness of encountering a fool, "and he was so courageous that he stole it into the police station."

Ji Suian didn't speak for a long time, until the policeman on the opposite side reminded him, he said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not his family or friend, and his affairs have nothing to do with me."

In the police station, Officer Li hung up the phone, Wei Mu squatted against the wall, and explained to them again in a hoarse voice: "I'm telling the truth, I sent the wallet back in the morning, and I have all the documents. If you don’t move, I will pay back the 500 yuan I took from it.”

"Isn't it stealing if you pay it back?" The policeman knocked on the phone, "They said they don't know you well, think about whether there is anyone else who can be contacted, otherwise they will have to send you to a detention center. "

Wei Mu's face turned pale, and he lowered his head.

The policeman also couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help asking: "No, what on earth are you thinking, stealing into the police station?"

Wei Mu stopped talking as if giving up.

Seeing his appearance, the police didn't ask any more questions. They had already contacted the courier point, and the courier in the morning hadn't been dispatched yet. When they got it back, they would know whether what the man said was true or not.

After all, Ji Suian didn't hold back Ji Tangtang's coquettishness, and drove home after work that day.

He didn't arrive early, when he stopped the car, the villa was already brightly lit, and Ji Tangtang's voice could be heard in the yard, probably instructing Wan Yuqing to cook, and calling "Mom" coquettishly to complain from time to time, Occasionally, there were two coughs from Ji Yanzhi pretending to be serious.

Ji Suian didn't go in immediately, but stood in the yard looking at the lights from the villa a few steps ahead.When he was a child, there was a time when he was very eager to have such a warm and lively welcome when he came home, but he was disappointed every time he stepped into the gate. The disappointment accumulated for a long time, and he gradually became bored with the house he grew up in. , After going to college, they came back less and less.

He wanted to smoke a little, but just as he put his hand into his pocket, the door suddenly opened from the inside. Shu Xi walked out, seeing Ji Suian, he was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately became surprised.

Ji Suian withdrew his hand holding the cigarette, and heard Shuxi smile at him and said, "I was just saying to see if you've arrived, why are you standing outside?"

She came over, looked up at Ji Suian, and said, "Sui'an, long time no see."

Ji Tangtang also ran out when he heard the commotion outside, questioned why Ji Suian arrived so late, then hugged his arm affectionately and dragged him into the room, flaunting: "Brother, I just mixed it with my own hands. I have cold dishes, hurry up and have a look!"

Holding Ji Suian with one hand, she still didn't forget to stand in the yard and look at their Shu Xi with a smile, and shouted: "Mom, come quickly too!"

Shu Xi responded and followed, the lights were locked inside along with the door.

Sure enough, the table was already filled with hearty dishes, but in the middle was a plate of plain cold dried shredded rice. After entering the house, Ji Tangtang urged Wan Yuqing to get the plate, so that everyone could quickly taste her cooking.

Wan Yuqing responded, and quickly turned around to get it. He wore an apron around his waist, and his appearance of holding the dishes was quite different from his clean and handsome appearance in the past. Laugh, without a hint of impatience.

Ji Suian glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, but most of the original dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated.

It was not easy for them to have such a reunion meal. Wan Yuqing had been an intern in a foreign hospital before, and Ji Suian usually came back once a month or two. As for Shuxi, she and After Ji Yanzhi got divorced, she picked up her career again. She spent most of these years abroad, and she just returned to China not long ago. Moreover, this may be the last meal that Ji Tangtang's family ate together before she got engaged.

However, for such a meal, Ji Suian ate quite absent-mindedly.

When Shu Xi looked at his watch for the third time in 10 minutes, he finally couldn't help asking him: "Suian, what's the matter with you?"

Ji Suian withdrew his gaze and said, "No."

Ji Yanzhi hummed, and then took the conversation: "He is a busy man, he refused to come to my company before, and he insisted on doing some biotechnology, how much money has Mr. Ji made now?"

Ji Suian has always paid little attention to Ji Yanzhi's words, and he didn't even lift his eyelids when he heard his troubles, but Wan Yuqing couldn't help but speak for him: "Uncle Ji, Brother An's company is mainly engaged in research and development at present, we can't just look at it. The temporary benefit in front of me, besides, the current benefit is not bad, I heard from my dad that last year..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ji Yanzhi aggressively: "Little traitor, you know what a fart!"

Whenever Ji Yanzhi brought up the word "traitor", Wan Yuqing had no choice but to stop. The reason was that when he and Ji Tangtang were in high school, Ji Yanzhi realized that his little girl had grown into a beautiful girl, so he couldn't help feeling Aware of the old father's worries, he was afraid that she would be missed by other boys in the school, so he entrusted this important task to Wan Yuqing, a boy from his old friend's family. For any bad intentions of Ji Tangtang, Wan Yuqing completed the task extremely well in the past three years, and Ji Tangtang was protected by him as a hard-to-pick high-altitude flower in the eyes of male classmates. Ji Yanzhi was very pleased with this.In this way, it wasn't until Ji Tangtang slipped his tongue in his sophomore year that Ji Yanzhi knew that the kid was willing to be his pawn so devotedly because he had a dark secret. I had to cancel the cooperation with Wan's overnight, I didn't see Wan Yuqing's father for two months, and I only saw Wan Yuqing for more than a year, and only the word "traitor" was seen. It's better to change, but I still get angry from time to time when I think of the old things.

Wan Yuqing didn't dare to say anything, Ji Yanzhi was a little proud, and in front of Shu Xi, he had an extremely strong desire to perform, so he said to Ji Suian with a straight face: "Let's not talk about your company first, and then look at your sister who wants to start a family What about you? It doesn't have to be a woman, even a man has never seen you bring it back. "

He drank some wine, and he was a little unrestrained when he talked: "When your father and I were young, how many men and women..."

Shu Xi next to him suddenly let out a sneer, and Ji Yanzhi suddenly stopped talking, his expression a little nervous about saying something wrong.

With sarcasm in the corner of Shu Xi's mouth, he squinted at him: "I'm glad that Sui'an is different from some people, who flaunted all the extravagance and drinking as talk stuff, it's just shameless."

Ji Yanzhi frowned: "Who are you scolding!"

Shu Xi didn't show any weakness: "Whoever scolds is clear in his heart."

The atmosphere at the dinner table became tense for a moment. Ji Tangtang was used to seeing the two get along with each other since she was a child, so she was not surprised by this.

In the midst of the quarrel, Ji Suian put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a napkin slowly, then stood up in the sight of the whole table, and said softly: "I have finished eating, I have to go first, you take your time." Quarrel."

The night wind was blowing gently in the courtyard, as soon as Ji Suian opened the car door, Shu Xi followed.

Standing in front of Ji Suian, she looked a little guilty: "I'm sorry, mom quarreled with him again in front of you and Tangtang."

"It's been so many years since I've been married and divorced. I thought I'd almost forgotten those things," she said in a helpless tone, "but I still feel angry when I hear it again, and I can't help but want to quarrel with him."

"It doesn't matter," Ji Suian said, "betrayal is a betrayal no matter how long it has been in the past, you don't have to let it go."

Shu Xi smiled and stretched out his hands to straighten the hair on his forehead that was blown tousled by the night wind.Ji Suian looked at her, after so many years, she was still as beautiful as when she left that year, even because she escaped from that failed marriage, away from frequent quarrels and tears, she was even more beautiful than many years ago.

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "In the past few years, he has always wanted to remarry you."

Shu Xi didn't show much surprise: "I know."

She was still smiling, but there was something else in her eyes. She couldn't tell whether it was more regret for Ji Yanzhi's late recovery, or more relief for the past marriage. Her voice was soft, but her tone was firm: "But no. It's possible, it's past, it's not that I will wait for him anytime he turns around."

"And," she paused, a girlish shyness suddenly appeared between her brows and eyes, "I have a new boyfriend."

After all, she nervously waited for Ji Suian's reaction, but Ji Suian didn't seem surprised by this, and calmly said: "Congratulations." He said it so normally, Shu Xi was a little uncertain about his real thoughts : "You won't be angry with me, will you?"

"Why should I be angry with you?" Ji Suian said, "This is a matter between the two of you. You have the right to make your own decision. Tangtang and I were not factors that you need to consider back then, and naturally you don't have to now. .”

Shu Xi pursed her lips, she couldn't tell how much sarcasm was in Ji Suian's words.

Ji Suian frowned slightly. Standing in front of this house, no matter how sincerely he praised Shu Xi's choice, when he talked about the past, he couldn't help but be influenced by those frequent disappointments many years ago, and his words unconsciously tinged with excitement. .

He was silent for a moment, and his tone softened a lot when he spoke again: "I said congratulations to you from the bottom of my heart. People who have betrayed their feelings are not worthy of forgiveness. You can choose how to continue your life. It's just that Tangtang has been holding on to this Fantasy, I have to trouble you to take the time to talk to her."

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, Shu Xi watched Ji Suian's car disappear in the distance, and the stone that was in her heart slowly fell to the ground in the night wind. She couldn't help laughing, but then frowned slightly.She remembered what Ji Suian said just now, and for some reason, she always felt that those words were not just for herself.
