glass fish tank
Chapter 58
Zhuang Yao had a light sleep for a few hours, and when he woke up, he saw Mu Ning sleeping on his back beside him.
I forgot when I fell asleep, the sky outside the window was already pale.Zhuang Yao rested his elbows on his knees, lowered his head and pinched the center of his brows, then got up and put the blanket on Mu Ning, covering it carefully.
The living room was a mess, beer cans, ashtrays, coats and scarves that had slid to the floor were strewn about.
Zhuang Yao picked up his coat and patted it, only to find that the soot on the clothes was wet.Looking down again, there was an overturned beer can at Mu Ning's feet.Can't wear it anymore.He remembered that he still had a coat with Mu Ning. Originally, he had hoped to guide Mu Ning to meet him, but he failed in the end.He went to look for Mu Ning's cloakroom with ease, and the coat was hanging outside.
Zhuang Yao took it off and was about to put it on, when he lowered his head, he found that his shirt was also dirty as if he had rolled in the mud.Mu Ning likes to wear loose sweaters, so Zhuang Yao went in to look for them.Sure enough, he found an oversize shirt, and just as he took off his shirt, he heard the doorbell ring.
The doorbell was in a hurry, and Mu Ning turned over unconsciously on the sofa.Zhuang Yao ran to open the door.
Unexpectedly, there was Lin Jiayang outside the door.
Two awake, one former and one current, had a face-to-face meeting.It was an embarrassing moment.Especially Zhuang Yao hasn't put on his shirt yet.
Zhuang Yao didn't have those careful thoughts, so what if Mu Ning and the incumbent had a misunderstanding, even if Mu Ning returned to him, he would not accept such a result.What he wants has always been upright, and he can't get it if he doesn't force it.
"Don't get me wrong." After Zhuang Yao finished speaking, he moved aside, and Mu Ning was lying on the sofa, fully dressed and sleeping.Seeing that Lin Jiayang's stiff expression eased a little, Zhuang Yao said, "I'll change my clothes and leave."
Lin Jiayang was changing shoes at the door, and from the corner of his eye, he saw that Zhuang Yao was indeed changing clothes.
"Why are you here?" Lin Jiayang still couldn't help asking.This is his right as Munning's boyfriend.
"I happened to pass by yesterday, so I came to help him with the show." Zhuang Yao put his coat on his arm, bowed his head and put on his shoes at the door.
"I'm flying to Shanghai today to say goodbye to Mu Ning. He won't see me for more than ten days, and I'm afraid he will miss me." Lin Jiayang uttered a series of oaths of sovereignty like cannonballs.
Zhuang Yao didn't answer, but put his hands on the doorknob. He was wearing a wide coat that could frame Mu Ning's whole body, but it fit him well.
He looked at Lin Jiayang.
This young man's eyebrows are three points similar to himself 20 years ago, but he can see that Lin Jiayang is far less innocent than Mu Ning.
"Mr. Zhuang." Lin Jiayang dodged Zhuang Yao's eyes.He is very clever, if Zhuang Yao doesn't make trouble, he won't ask anything.Because he wanted to hang around in this circle for a day, so he couldn't offend the man in front of him.
"The hangover medicine is in the cabinet in the study." Zhuang Yao didn't say anything in the end, but calmly reminded: "He drank too much yesterday, and he may have a headache today."
"Don't worry, I know." Lin Jiayang felt very uncomfortable.
In fact, Mu Ning had already woken up, but the situation in the former Shura Field scared him so much that he didn't dare to open his eyes, and kept his ears up and pretended to be dead.
When he heard the sound of Zhuang Yao leaving the door, he slowly opened his eyes and got up, and asked Lin Jiayang, "Why are you here? Aren't you going to Shanghai?"
Lin Jiayang turned around and said with a smile, "Are you awake?"
"Well, I didn't sleep well." Mu Ning asked knowingly, "Did you meet Zhuang Yao?"
"Just left." Lin Jiayang said, "Why is he at your house?"
Mu Ning quickly explained according to the prompt given by Zhuang Yao: "Look for him to tell me about the play. After Mr. Gu's disappearance, he will be left. Don't be angry, it's just this time today, next time I will try to call him .”
"I'm not angry. I'm just awkward." Lin Jiayang pursed his lips, sat down next to Mu Ning coquettishly, and said in a low voice, "He even knows where your hangover medicine is stored, but I don't."
Mu Ning pinched Lin Jiayang's face, and comforted him, "Then you know now."
"I came today to tell you that there is no way to see you on Christmas." Lin Jiayang sighed, looking very annoyed: "I asked Sister Shan not to arrange an announcement for me, but it turned out that I was going to participate in a brand event that day. A half-year contract."
"It's okay, I'm also in the group for Christmas, and I can't get out." Mu Ning comforted.
"Are you going to the group today?"
"Go." Mu Ning looked at the time, "Cinnabar is almost here."
"Then I'll go first." Lin Jiayang pointed to his cheek: "Kiss me."
Mu Ning blushed, the brat is too good at it, who can handle it?
"Just give me a kiss." Seeing Mu Ning shy, Lin Jiayang went one step further, threatening and luring: "If you don't kiss me, I won't leave. When the crew opens the skylight, you can just listen to Sister Shan calling you and scolding you for being a beauty."
Mu Ning shuddered at the thought of the dominatrix-like Huang Shan, and kissed Lin Jiayang's face lightly: "Hurry up and go!"
When Zhuang Yao returned home, the sun was shining all over the ground.He narrowed his eyes reflexively.
"What do you want to give?" Lucy asked again in disbelief.
"Fish." Zhuang Yao patiently repeated: "I don't have any more at home. I have a few golden foxes here. Director Zhao asked me several times before. Come and get them in the afternoon and send them to him."
"Just a few fish?" Lucy asked.
"Not only that, I don't want any more." Zhuang Yao said, "Except for some gifts, you can deal with the rest as you like."
"How to deal with it. Can't the ornamental fish be released?" Lucy said, "I can't survive."
Zhuang Yao said: "So, let you handle it. You can give it away or sell it, and you don't need to give me the money."
Even though Lucy has been Zhuang Yao's secretary for seven or eight years, she has never seen her boss have such a convulsion.I was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer: "Then, I will come and get it later?"
Zhuang Yao said: "Okay, as soon as possible." Then he hung up the phone.
Zhuang Yao resolutely moved up from the basement the ladder that others usually use to take care of the fish tank, rolled up his sleeves, and fished out all the fish, big and small.Put them into different airtight containers on the ground by category.
In the past, Zhuang Yao seldom took care of it himself, and more often just stared at the fish tank in a daze, or fed.He doesn't answer any calls, letting the phone vibrate hot on the marble floor.I only work alone, and I don't feel tired when I climb up and down.There were twenty or thirty fish in the tank, and he was so busy until the afternoon that he caught them all.
Lucy was already on standby.She called the moving company.
"Take it all away." Zhuang Yao raised his head and poured half a bottle of mineral water, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
Porters filed in and quickly cleared the ground.
"Mr. Zhuang, you still have a round of golf at four o'clock in the afternoon, at the Ozzie Golf Course. Director Qian Yuetang and Mr. Sun made an appointment with you." Lucy stepped on her high-heeled shoes in a mess of water stains, and calmly opened her itinerary surface.Then he looked down at the ground and asked, "Do you need me to call a cleaner?"
"Not for now." Zhuang Yao said.
In the afternoon, Zhuang Yao stood in front of the closet and chose a set of sportswear, golf shoes, and a set of reasonably priced clubs.
From the bedroom to the living room, you have to pass the huge glass fish tank.This time when Zhuang Yao passed by, the lights in the tank had been turned off, and the well-designed underwater landscape was the same as before, except that there were no living creatures walking through it.The water change system also stopped working, and the water surface was calm and without waves.
Zhuang Yao stopped in front of the fish tank.
He remembered that Mu Ning once asked, among so many beautiful fish, which one is him.At that time, Zhuang Yao didn't give any answer, and Mu Ning seemed to know it well.
When he ran into Lin Jiayang at Mu Ning's house in the morning, Zhuang Yao's rationality and years of self-cultivation told him that he just needs to leave.That's decent enough, and it's also the best choice for Munning.But there is always a bad voice in Zhuang Yao's heart, asking persistently.
What if he doesn't let go?
If he doesn't let go, he doesn't need to leave that room.He can make a leisurely breakfast as before, and then wake up Mu Ning, who is used to staying in bed, until the sun is high.The young man's soft lips will stick to his cheeks, leaving a gentle residual heat.
But for Mu Ning now, the last thing he needs is the love that is confined.It took Zhuang Yao a long time to understand that he likes Mu Ning's free nature, his beauty, his ambition and small conceit.But it was his selfishness, he possessed as much as he wanted, it was those traits that obliterated all his favorite traits in Mu Ning, obliterated the light that originally belonged to him.
This ordinary morning is the moment when Zhuang Yao truly admits that he loves Mu Ning.From this moment on, he no longer regards Munning as his subsidiary, nor is he an expensive and exquisite ornamental fish in a glass fish tank, but an independent soul.
He also realized that his own pathological, authoritarian, and self-righteous love was the culprit that led Mu Ning to the abyss.
That being the case, since he is the culprit, he should really let go.
Mu Ning cannot be kept in this magnificent fish tank by him, he should be free.What kind of movies he makes, what kind of people he makes friends with, and even who he chooses to love, these should actually be Mu Ning's own choice.
Zhuang Yao took out an iron club with the heaviest swing weight from his bag, and weighed it in his hand.
Then, in a still wind, he swung hard and thumped the lower part of the tank's outer wall.
There was an obvious crack in the thick glass tank wall. Zhuang Yao moved his red palm, and he could hear the strong vibration of the iron rod screaming in the air.Before the aftershock dissipated, Zhuang Yao swung the club with brute force again, veins popped out of his arm muscles, and he swung precisely at the same fragile part that had cracks.
Finally, the entire piece of glass shattered the wall in an instant, and the water flowed out of the wall, rushing down like a waterfall of flying clouds.
The water in the fish tank overflowed the floor, and the loud noise when the glass shattered alarmed the alarm system in the home. For a while, there was only the sound of gurgling water and sharp alarms in the empty house.Zhuang Yao took out his mobile phone, turned off the alarm system, and made a call.
"Lucy, arrange cleaning."
Zhuang Yao still looked calm and breezy, and he didn't see a trace of embarrassment at Mu Ning's house yesterday.
With a normal expression, he put the irons back into the bag, crossed the shallow water, left the living room, and walked outside to the garage.
I forgot when I fell asleep, the sky outside the window was already pale.Zhuang Yao rested his elbows on his knees, lowered his head and pinched the center of his brows, then got up and put the blanket on Mu Ning, covering it carefully.
The living room was a mess, beer cans, ashtrays, coats and scarves that had slid to the floor were strewn about.
Zhuang Yao picked up his coat and patted it, only to find that the soot on the clothes was wet.Looking down again, there was an overturned beer can at Mu Ning's feet.Can't wear it anymore.He remembered that he still had a coat with Mu Ning.
