[Pretender] Makoto Honya

Ming Spiegel failed to take Mingtai away in the end, and flew back to Hong Kong alone.

Seeing the eldest sister come happily, but walk away full of melancholy, Mingtai felt very happy.

Jin Yun was still recuperating in the hospital. When he returned home alone, he found the photo at the bottom of the box.He carefully looked at himself in the photo, walked to the mirror, compared carefully, parted the corners of his mouth, and showed a wry smile.

Where is this still the young master who made Zhang Yang escape?This is clearly a rough man who has been tortured by life beyond recognition.

He lowered his head and studied the photos, like a lover's murmur.

"Look at how nice you are, you won't grow old, and you will always be so beautiful. When we meet again in the future, will you dislike me for being old?"

He wanted to put on a flamboyant smile in front of the photo, but found that he hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time.He tidied up the old things in the box, but he didn't put the photo back again, but put it in his clothes pocket as a treasure.

Cheng Jinyun found that after she lost her child, Mingtai suddenly became silent, and sometimes the two of them could not speak a word for a few days at home.

But she saw Mingtai sitting there talking to himself many times, as if he was talking to something, but every time she approached, he stood up and walked away as if nothing had happened.

She knew that it was her fault that the child was gone, but she couldn't bear the cold violence towards her from the person who held her in the palm of her hand.She finally found Mingtai and wanted to have a talk with him.

"Mingtai, I know you are very concerned about the child's affairs, but I am also very wronged, and I want to have both, but I have my own responsibility!"

Mingtai raised his head and glanced at her, there was no wave in Gujing Wubo's eyes.

"Can you stop doing this? It hurts me to lose my child, but what can I do? It is our belief to serve the country, and it is normal to pay some price for the belief!"

Cheng Jinyun stepped forward and grabbed his arm, a little excited, but more aggrieved.

If it was him before, he might argue with her, but now Mingtai suddenly feels that these disputes are meaningless.All along, he was the one who made concessions for her, and he couldn't change her.But now, he doesn't want to be changed by her.

He gently brushed her hand away from him, turned around and walked out of the courtyard wall.

*****

Early 1943, Paris.

Manli, who was dressed in business attire, walked out of the bank with a group of colleagues, and saw Qiao Baizhou standing at the door with a smile on her face.

"Brother Joe!"

Manli saw the person smiling, said goodbye to her colleagues, and quickly walked up to him, "Didn't you say you were going home? Why did you come to the bank?"

"If I don't come, how can I see what you look like when you're working? Manli is becoming more and more like a strong woman now."

Qiao Baizhou looked at the handsome girl in front of him with some relief, recalling the helplessness and fear when he first came to France two years ago, he couldn't help sighing.Time has always been the best teacher, and life has allowed her to grow rapidly.

Qiao Baizhou helped her tidy up the long hair that fell on her shoulders, and heaved a sigh of relief, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and it's changed again."

"Is it better or worse?"

Manli blinked mischievously, and looked at him expectantly.

"grown up."

Qiao Baizhou smiled and scratched her nose, like he did to Ruyuan every time.If he had to use one word to describe the change of the silly girl in front of him, all he could think of was reborn.

The girl who used to be full of misery in the corners of her eyes and brows is now full of independence and confidence in every frown and smile.The little guy who was only bluffing back then has really grown stronger from the heart.

Seeing Qiao Baizhou's gratified expression, Manli finally raised the corners of her mouth.

To this day, Mingtai is still her only belief.But even without faith, she can live a full and happy life.It was Qiao Baizhou who made her understand that there is not only love in life, she lives for herself.

*****

In early 1943, Peking.

It's New Year's Eve again.

Mingtai walked on the street alone, looking at all kinds of people, he felt that winter was getting colder every year.

He didn't want to go home, and he'd rather be out there alone than be relatively silent with his wife at home.

"Sir, are there fireworks?"

The yelling of street vendors caught his attention, and Mingtai stepped forward, silently paying for fireworks and matches.

He found a quiet place and lit a string of fireworks.The moment the fireworks took off, he felt that the fireworks on the Bund that year were the most beautiful fireworks he had ever seen.

He touched the photo in his pocket and whispered softly.

"This year's New Year's gift, Manli, I wish you a Happy New Year."

*****

In mid-1943, Peking.

"Mingtai, Mingtai! Don't scare me!"

Cheng Jinyun threw himself to the side of the hospital bed, looking at the dying Mingtai, he could hardly control his emotions.

"I was shot three times, and I managed to save him. Our mission this time was plotted!"

Old Yu, the head of the Peking Organization, gritted his teeth, obviously hating the Japanese to the core.If Mingtai hadn't pushed him away at the critical moment, he would be the one lying here now.

"Take good care of him. He was seriously injured this time. Even if he recovers well, I'm afraid he won't be able to perform such dangerous tasks in the future."

Cheng Jinyun cried and nodded, looking worriedly at the man on the hospital bed.Even though their relationship has almost dropped to freezing point over the past year, he is still the man she loves after all.

"I still have some aftermath work to do, and I leave it to you here."

Old Yu sighed, turned around and left the ward.

Mingtai's consciousness on the hospital bed was a little unclear, and he opened his mouth to say something.

Jin Yun was taken aback, and moved closer to him, trying to hear what he said clearly, but when she really heard it clearly, she wished she hadn't heard it.

"Manli...don't be afraid...Manli...I will protect you..."

The man's muttering kept repeating these two sentences, but the woman standing beside the hospital bed burst into tears.

This scene is so familiar, as if she herself is a joke.

*****

Mingtai felt as if he had had a long, long dream. In the dream, there was a girl always quietly following behind him.He wanted to see her face clearly, but he could only see the military uniform she was wearing.

Then he saw two people saying goodbye on the ancient city wall three years ago, and one of them turned out to be himself.

"Mingtai, I'm so scared..."

He heard the girl's crisp words, but saw that the other self was just silent.He watched the girl cry more fiercely because of the silence of the other party, and couldn't help shouting loudly behind the two of them.

"Manli! Don't be afraid! I will protect you!"

He was taken aback after yelling, so the girl is called Manli?He seemed to open a door, and kept repeating to comfort her not to be afraid, as if this could stop her tears.

Mingtai didn't know whether the two of them heard his shout, but saw the girl slowly stop her tears, with a sad smile on her face.

"Mingtai, I heard you're engaged?"

No!I am not engaged!

Mingtai subconsciously flashed such a thought in his mind, but saw the other self on the opposite side nodding silently.

"Don't trust him! I'm not engaged!"

He shouted frantically, but the two people on the city wall couldn't hear him at all.He saw the desperate smile on the girl's face after he nodded, and felt like a knife was twisting his heart.

"Mingtai, have you ever loved me?"

Mingtai was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer this question, but the person opposite him had already replaced his rejection with silence.

Then he saw the girl smiled sadly, turned around and jumped off the city wall. The darkness below the city wall was like a bottomless pit that cannibalize people.

He was startled, and desperately rushed up to grab her, but he couldn't move at all, he could only watch helplessly as she was swallowed up by the darkness bit by bit.

"Yu Manli! I love you!"

His mind was at a loss, but he yelled this sentence very clearly.At that moment, he suddenly became the self on the city wall, and the lights under the city wall lit up, illuminating all sights.

He looked down and clearly saw the girl who was alive just now lying there quietly.Mingtai suddenly felt that no matter how much light filled his surroundings, his world had lost all light.

"Yu Manli, don't leave me..."

He murmured softly, "Manli, I love you!"

The author has something to say:

I was overwhelmed by Ms. Quan Tsundere's landmine comments today! ! ! !Miss Tuhaoquan, I want to be good friends with you! ! !

There is also the lovely McDull~ The New Year gift given by Landmine is so happy~

Everyone wants meat, there will be... I will work hard... I will post a special episode when the main text is over!my promise~

I don’t use it very much, so please add me to Weibo. After I finish writing and posting the document, members of the pretender group can see it. Do you think it’s ok?

Then the author's words:

Seeing that many children strongly feel that Mingtai is not good enough for Manli, and some children think that Uncle Qiao is better, let me give a unified reply here~

I don’t know if you still remember how you felt after watching The Pretender. I really hope that Mingtai can be with Manli. In fact, this is the original intention of me writing them. This pair of CPs has not changed from the beginning.

The reason why everyone doesn't want them to be together now is nothing more than the addition of cjy between the two of them, and my newly added character, Uncle Joe.

Let’s talk about Uncle Qiao first. In fact, the meaning of his existence is as a pusher, a pusher who can make Mingtai’s eyes fall on Manli. He is really not the main character, children~

Then explain whether the stage is worthy of Shang Manli. In fact, some children may think that my setting is a bit sloppy, but this is actually my subconscious reaction after watching the pretender and knowing the characters of cjy and Mingtai. If they live together, it must be the result.Mingtai is actually a bit like a senior in college, but he may not be able to adapt well when he is out of society, and cjy is too idealistic.

As for his feelings for Manli, in fact, I have always felt that only by dragging him into the mud can he talk to Manli on an equal footing.The harshness of the old society towards women, including the prejudice against women in the current society, Manli's background is definitely the biggest obstacle for the two of them to be together.So I thought, just let Mingtai fall from the altar, you have such a past, and I was married, so don't dislike anyone.

So children, this is my understanding of Mingtai Manli. As the author, I am really happy that everyone likes my character Uncle Qiao, and I am very grateful for your sense of substitution, although some plots are a bit different from what you imagined. There are differences, but in fact, it is my original intention to write this article to make Mingtai and Manli together.
