male god effect
Chapter 60 Extra Story 2 Years Later
7.
Ji Mi arrived at EVIL in the early morning.
After getting on the highway, the car drove faster and faster, and the scenery outside the window became more and more desolate.
For the first time, he stepped foot in the so-called slums of the city.Before that, he had no concept of everything here, but when he really came to District [-], he realized that everything was far beyond his imagination.
From the bustling District [-] in the city center to the [-]th District on the outskirts of the city, the gap between them is comparable to going from the world to purgatory.
The northwest of District [-] can barely be regarded as a dilapidated suburb. There are two or three public primary schools and middle schools in the northernmost area, next to hospitals, police stations and churches. Going south for a while, you can see Get some bars, hotels, bakeries, hair salons... Although the pavements are small, the buildings are low, the paint on the signboards is seriously faded, and the wall coverings are also peeling off badly, but overall they are still neat and tidy.
It can be seen that this is where the relatively wealthy residents of District [-] live. They live in small, dimly lit houses, and still maintain basic food and clothing, and can ensure that their children receive the most basic education.Although the resources here are poor, the information is outdated, and the crime rate remains high, as long as you have more patience, life can still be supported.
And further southeast, there are fewer and fewer decent buildings, more and more simple huts, tents and cardboard houses, the roads available for passage are getting narrower, and more and more garbage is piled up in front. Various unknown obstacles blocked the steps.
Under the moonlight, barefoot children are playing a game of 'treasure hunt' on the rubbish hill, and homeless men in newspapers fall asleep next to the rubbish dump with their heads covered.The sewage pool in the distance exudes a stench, and the rusty water pipes continuously discharge sewage. The corpses of cats and dogs nearby are rotting little by little, and the cuckoo of the mourning bird is unreasonable. palpitations.
"I'm really sorry," the girl named Chai Mei saw him, she lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I shouldn't have asked you to come here, but... brother, he has really..."
Ji Gu touched the girl's head, indicating that she was fine.The girl had grown taller again, and looked more mature than when he first saw her.
"Take me to see him."
He hadn't seen his little warrior for almost a year.
The little soldier's hair was gray, and there were strands of silver in the black hair, which looked like a failed work done by an unqualified hair dyer.
Liar...Liar, Ji Mi panicked a little, he didn't expect that this person would look so bad.He also always lied to people on the phone, telling himself that he was fine.
The man who had always been 'good' was almost skinny to the bone, his back was even more hunched, and he seemed to be smoking a lot, his voice was so smoked that his voice was distorted.I don't know if he was too weak, but his face was pale and he was always coughing.
There are only four words left in Ji Mi's mind... Decline before you get old.He's only 19, but he looks like he's entering his twilight years.
"Cough...cough...cough..."
The little soldier started coughing again, maybe he caught a cold recently?The girl went up and patted him on the back familiarly, and poured hot water for him, as if she was familiar with it.
"Too slow...idiot...let me wait for you to wait..."
The boy's voice was light and ethereal, like soap bubbles, blowing over with the wind, and bursting with a poke.
"I've been waiting...too long...even my mother...has..."
"I'm sorry." Ji Mi looked at his back, and could hardly think of anything to comfort him.Just when he was thinking about opening his mouth, the boy's head plunged into his arms, like a drowning child, tightly grasping the last straw.
"Mom...all...going...Mom..."
His warrior, his hero, buried his head and sobbed in a low voice, revealing all his fragility and helplessness to him without reservation.
Chai Jiu, 19, has been struggling in this unkind world for four years.In order to take the woman back from the god of death, he paid too much price. He wished he could cultivate a whole body of copper skin and iron bones, and use his body to cast a high wall that could guard her, so that the executioner who killed life would be forever. Blocking the boundary line between hell and the world.
The tug-of-war was over, he had lost, crushed.
Death swung his scythe and took her from his sight.The mourning bird crowed on the tree, as if announcing the end of the war.
Ah ah ah ah ah!
The pain did not come suddenly, but it was enough to destroy everything.It cuts off all hope, as well as a fragile life, leaving only an endless sense of emptiness.After that it was as if something had been ripped out of the body, leaving only an ugly hole, and the wind blew in and made it whine like someone was crying.
Who else is crying?Of course, it's me.
Chai Jiu firmly grasped Ji Mi's shirt with both hands, as if he was about to fall off the edge of a cliff if he didn't do that.He choked up, his throat lost his voice, and he only felt the pain in his bones. The pain was long-lasting, as if he couldn't get rid of it in his life.
Ji Mi hugged the young man and kissed his forehead and wet cheeks. He knew the pain, and also knew that he was helpless.
It's like the day of the funeral of his grandparents, as the eldest grandson, he put on an adult's suit for the first time, holding a long manuscript and giving a speech on stage.
That day, when he stood on the stage, he realized that he couldn't speak a word.The strings of letters on the manuscript paper became extremely strange. He spent a lot of effort, trying to see their appearance clearly, trying to distinguish the meaning of each letter combination, but in the end it was in vain.Like tadpoles, they swam on the white paper, twisted and twisted together suddenly, turning into sewing needles, piercing his heart.
So his world became blank in an instant, there was no more joy and laughter, only endless pain, enough to make people forget all the pain of happiness.
And that pain, no prescription can relieve it, no one person can help.
Only the bearer himself, in the years to come, will use time to wash it away and dilute it little by little.
8.
"She walked...it shouldn't be painful..."
Chai Jiu muttered in a low voice while wiping the woman's face with a towel.
It was the first and only time Ji Mi saw this woman who was in the same blood as Chai Jiu.
She is a typical Chaider, she looks purer than Chai Jiu, and her complexion is so white that it is almost transparent.
Her black hair has long lost its luster, and the fine lines around her eyes are also faintly visible, but you still cannot deny the fact that she is a beauty.
At this moment, she just fell asleep, and her life will always stay at the age of 35, like a fairy tale.
"It's too bitter." Chai Jiu stared blankly at the woman, and finally lowered her head. "In her whole life, there has never been a day when she has not endured hardship."
Miss Cheadle was born during the Restoration War and spent nearly 15 years as a so-called noble lady. During this period, her father, brother and uncle all joined the battlefield to support the royal family.
In 15 years, she lost six older brothers, two uncles, two uncles and an aunt. They were all Chaidel's bravest fighters and heroes who sacrificed to protect honor.
——They invaded our land, burned our churches, plundered our treasures, killed our monarchs, forced us to forget our names, our history, and our beliefs... But Chaidel will never throw it away Honor, and will never let any sinner go!
Her parents were Cheadle, her mother was of the Cchildle offshoot, and her father was a cousin.This strong woman who also flows the blood of God of War resolutely chose to go to the battlefield with her husband after losing her brother and her beloved son.
Miss Cheadle witnessed her father and mother being sent to the guillotine, the manor and a large field were confiscated, and her young brother died tragically in front of her.The 12-year-old Cheadle boy stood in front of his sister with a gun in his hand, trying to drive the law enforcement officers out of their home.
She no longer has a home, and she has to give up her surname and first name.
"She was only 16 years old, married a man who ran a factory, and had two children. She opened a small piano room and taught students to play the piano every day. At first, the man was very kind to her, and then... His factory went bankrupt and owed a lot of debts, and they started to quarrel... and later, he drank, took/drugs, went completely insane, broke the things in the house, and... and... hit her Do it."
Chai Jiu's eyes were a little dazed.
"She suffered from depression, and there were either bruises or scars on her wrists. She could hardly survive, and she had to. That scum went to prison and left all the troubles to her. She had no choice but to carry The child hid in the [-]th district... She has suffered so much and has no hope in her life."
However, even so, she still holds her head up and pulls up all her energy to meet the unknown tomorrow.She still retains some aristocratic habits. She teaches the children the dining etiquette, teaches the children to read and write ancient characters, teaches the children to play the piano and sing, teaches the children to social dance, and teaches the children to practice fencing with bamboo poles...
She taught them to learn self-discipline and not be tempted by material desires, and she hoped that they could have independent and free souls.
She passed on the spirit of the Chaidel family to them, but she didn't want them to fight with hatred.
"Mom...my brother is going to college..." the girl cried out of breath, "Mom, just take a look at him...just take a look at him...don't go...don't go..."
The cry was so sad and helpless, if the deceased knew it underground, he would definitely feel distressed.
The wind blew in through the window, lifted the boy's thin shirt, and also blown away the messy hair on the boy's forehead, but it couldn't dry the tears on the boy's face.
He stood there with red eyes, like an abandoned child.
Ji Mi's heart skipped a beat, and at that moment, he finally made up his mind to do something.
"Student Chai Jiu," he hugged the boy from behind, stroked his forehead with his palm, and said that sentence without the slightest hesitation, "Please... marry me..."
Ji Mi had imagined a better scene of proposing to the boy, he had imagined the size of the diamond ring, the size of the flowers... But at this moment, none of that matters anymore, he just wants to hug the person in front of him and tell He, himself is always there.
"Let's go to England, to the Commonwealth, to anywhere in the world that allows us to be together, shall we?"
There will be no more politics, no more intrigue, no more strife, and nothing will ever separate them.
It was dawn, and he never wanted to see his little soldier cry again.
9.
How long has passed since then?
Ji Gu lay on the sofa and rubbed his eyes.
Already, 20 years.
"Morning~"
Slumped on the soft cushion, he lazily greeted Chai Jiu who was hurrying down the stairs.
"Is there a case today?"
"Yeah." Chai Jiu was straightening the cuffs of his suit as he walked, with an untied tie hanging around his neck.Ji Mi noticed that his eye sockets were a little blue, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.
Really, Ji Mi sighed.
He will be 40 years old next year, but he still works hard like a young man, and he must stay up all night before the trial of a major case.If things go on like this, the desire to become a presiding judge before the age of 50 is still very hopeful.
Time has turned him from the stubborn little soldier he once was into the great judge he is today.
Brother and sister Chai Jiu and Chai Mei both studied law at first.My younger sister switched to psychology after finishing her master’s degree, and is now active internationally, devoting herself to providing legal aid to teenagers who have suffered domestic violence, campus bullying, or even sexual/// assault, and helping them out of their spiritual difficulties .
Ji Mi once heard her speech when she was in England. The once fragile and helpless girl finally grew into a mature and capable professional woman unknowingly under the tempering of the suffering years.
Chai Jiu was already in her early thirties when she received her Juris Doctor degree.Ji Mi was very pleased about this, and they could finally officially live together.You have to know that in the 11 years before that, Chai Jiu was almost kidnapped by the monster named 'School', and spent day and night studying in the library. The exam made Ji Mi, who wanted to make a date, feel inexplicably guilty.
After finally graduating, they finally settled down in the Federation and bought this house with a small garden and a parking space.Driving from here, you can reach the court where Chai Jiu works in 10 minutes, and after another 10 minutes, you can see Luna's elementary school.
"Daddy! Good morning—"
The little loli in white pajamas threw herself into Ji Mi's arms, her black hair was curly, like a waterfall, reaching down to her waist.
They didn't plan to adopt/adopt/children at first, and Luna's appearance was an accident. When she was about eighteen months old, she was abandoned near the parking lot of the courthouse.She curled up in her baby and cried until Chai Jiu found her when she got off work.
So Mr. Cat and Little Mole, who were dumbfounded, fell into the pit and started a long journey of raising children.
The ghost knows what they went through to raise a little baby with congenital deficiencies into this lively little loli.
Neither of them has much experience in raising children, and they don't even know what brand of milk powder diapers to buy, how to comfort the baby when it cries, and even less know which vaccines the baby should get.
Ji Mi has been a pampered young master since he was a child, and he never took care of others a few times. Chai Jiu was considered a child of a wealthy family in his childhood. It's a troublesome and trivial job - his sister is only three years younger than him, she can take care of herself, and with her mother around, he doesn't need to worry too much.
During the eight years, they did not know how many times they committed stupidity in the pit of raising children.In fact, they can hire a nanny to take care of the children, but when Ji Mi recalled that when he was a child, he was always surrounded by maids, and when he woke up from a nightmare at night and his parents were not around, he gave up the idea of hiring a nanny. idea.
Not to mention Chai Jiu, he lacked paternal love since he was a child, and he couldn't stand children without their father's company the most. If it wasn't too busy at work, he could only wish to cling to little Luna 24 hours a day, be a good father who is always by his daughter's side, What I once wanted the most was doubled and poured into her.
In the first ten years they were together, because they were busy with their studies or careers, they always got together less and left more, so they were generally harmonious.For the next ten years, they finally lived together, and stumbling became commonplace.
Chai Jiu doesn't talk much on weekdays, and he's a workaholic with serious face paralysis.Everything is good but his temper is bad, he can be called a walking explosive/drug bag, you never know which muscle is wrong with him, and he will throw a fit like a storm.
As a young master who was spoiled by his family since he was a child, Ji Mi has never been so choked by anyone, and he looks a little pitiful.Most of his personality is gentle and gentle, and there are masochistic genes in it. He is born with an instinctive sense of admiration and obedience to strict people, so he rarely fights back, and only unilaterally scolds.
Because in the final analysis, the root of their conflicts is often because Ji Mi secretly committed suicide or did stupid things that Chai Jiu couldn't stand.
For example, drinking, racing, skipping work, taking medicine blindly, playing e-sports at home and almost forgetting to hold a parent-teacher meeting for little Luna, going out and spending money to bring home a bunch of useless things.
This 1.8-meter-five big man is like a brat who will never learn well.
Chai Jiu was so angry that he wanted to knock open this man's brain to see how many pitfalls there were.He figured it out, this person was completely pretending to be mature and stable when he was young, but he was actually crazier than anyone else when he messed around.
Ji Mi couldn't help but miss Chai Jiu when he was a boy. In fact, Chai Jiu had a bad temper at that time, but he hadn't evolved into the explosive/drug bag he is now, and he still had a way to hold him and coax him around.
It's a pity that when the boy became an adult, he became more and more difficult to be fooled. Not only was he gradually immune to Mr. Cat's hard-boiled routines, but he also controlled Mr. Cat to death.
For example, recently, because of a small mistake, Mr. Mao has been fined to sleep on the sofa for almost a week.
It's just that he is still playful in middle age, and he is still on the verge of being beaten. He doesn't do much piercing, but recently he has become obsessed with tattoos, with tattoos on his arms and back. Very eye-catching pattern.
He has always insisted on exercising and keeping fit, and his figure is very good, and his tattoos are not non-mainstream and exotic patterns, so he looks pretty cool.
It's a pity that Chai Jiu doesn't think so, because he knows that this undead guy is used to kicking his nose and face. If you indulge him in tattooing today, he will dare to tattoo his eyeballs tomorrow, and maybe he will do body embroidery by the way. .Therefore, he stared at the other party's stupid look, with a gloomy face as if he could squeeze out water.
——If you have any more messy tattoos, you will not enter the house.
--Uh-huh.Mr. Mao knelt on the washboard while covering his head in confession.
After all, the little mole has grown into a big mouse, even the cat is afraid of it.
But in all fairness, Chai Jiu is often unreasonable. This person is born with a dog temper and is particularly ignorant of good people.
Fortunately, after so many years, Ji Mi has already been trained to be invulnerable, no matter how coldly the other party knocks on the ashtray, he can deal with it very peacefully and calmly.
What's more, now, he has a good helper——
"Daddy," eight-year-old Luna pouted while holding milk, "why don't you eat breakfast again? You look like this, your stomach will feel uncomfortable again!"
If Ji Mi had said this before, Chai Jiu, who was troubled by getting up all over his body, would have pretended not to hear it, and then let it go his own way, and put on a bastard look of "huh, you don't care".But now little Luna is here.
"Oh—oh." Chai Jiu just got angry when she got up, and then retreated obediently.He obediently drank a glass of milk in one go, then picked up a piece of toast and turned around, intending to rush to the cloakroom.
"Daddy!" Little Luna pouted.
Chai Jiu's body stiffened for a moment, and she turned her head to meet her daughter's big round eyes, losing her temper instantly.Very resigned to his fate, he assumed a posture of surrender, then sat down obediently, and reluctantly fought fiercely with the bacon and fried eggs on the table.
Well done - Ji Mi and little Luna clapped their hands in perfect harmony.
Getting a grumpy workaholic to have a good breakfast is almost impossible, but fortunately, this workaholic is a hardcore daughter-slave.
Ji Mi felt that little Luna was probably specially sent by the Lord to help him cure Chai Jiu.
They had had many quarrels over her when the child was a baby.However, as little Luna grew up and became more sensible, Chai Jiu's temper improved a lot, and she gradually became more patient in speaking and doing things.
Since Luna went to elementary school and became sensible, she began to develop in the direction of the little padded jacket, knowing that it hurts people.And Chai Jiu, who was always unreasonable in the past, finally learned to be reasonable in front of his daughter, which is really gratifying.
But the little guy also had headaches. Ji Mi rubbed his temples helplessly. He almost couldn’t remember how many times he secretly drank at home and was reported to Chai Jiu by Luna. After washing the clothes board, I was reduced to the pitiful situation of sleeping on the sofa.
Little Luna called Ji Gu Daddy, and sometimes called him Kitten directly. Compared with her serious father, she was more used to playing around with this big brother-like man.
But if you ask her "Which one would you choose, Kitten or Dad?", the little guy will definitely choose Dad.The reason is that although my father doesn't like to laugh, he is very reliable. He will pick her up and drop off from school on time, and he will arrive at school on time to hold a parent-teacher meeting for her.
In addition, there seems to be something inexplicable about Chai Jiu, which always makes people habitually want to obey him.
"Nothing to do today?" Chai Jiu frowned and looked at Ji Mi who was lying on the sofa without a shape, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Hmm..." Ji Mi yawned, and replied very lazily, "As a boss, it's not a crime to take a vacation once in a while, right?"
"Huh..." Chai Jiu silently swallowed the words that just came to his lips, and only secretly condemned "ugly capitalists" in his heart.
Ji Mi graduated a few years earlier than Chai Jiu. He studied at an internationally renowned art college, where he studied cultural industry management. Most of the students he met were either rich or expensive, but they were also diverse and had an artistic heart. Ideal, there are also people who eat, drink and play.
Relying on his several years of experience in politics, he won over a group of "hunters and dog friends" from the cultural circle in the university, and his life was prosperous. He also aimed at opportunities several times during the period, and made a lot of money by investing. funds.
In the past, this amount of money was nothing to Ji Mi who was still in EVIL, but the times have changed, he is no longer a noble young master, and he is married and wants to support his family, so he doesn’t care about money.
He also has to buy a diamond ring for his little soldier.
After graduating, Ji Mi established a film base with his "fun friends and dog friends". He used the connections he made in the cultural circle when he was in school, and took advantage of the rising shareholder wind of the federal cultural industry to make a fortune. One of the purposes of going to art school in the first place.
After the business grew, he recruited Senior Aisa, an old hooligan who had been in the Two-dimensional circle for many years. The two bastards hit it off and started animation and game companies together. At the same time, they followed the Internet age and established Opened a barrage video website.
Ji Mi's playful nature made him invest in many horse farms and clubs successively after that. Not long ago, he planned to transform the film base into an open square, creating a comprehensive complex integrating film and television, leisure and sightseeing. sex tourist area.
On the one hand, it's for money, and on the other hand, it's probably... just for fun.
He seems unable to lead a step-by-step life all his life, and he does not have any ideals or pursuits in life. He has maintained a life attitude of aimless and directionless for a long time, passively letting the world push him.From his youth, what attracted him was always those things that were exciting, dangerous, chaotic and disorderly.
Once he was drinking, taking drugs, and self-abuse. While being tortured by pain, he enjoyed the state of being tortured. He thought that his life would be like this, and there would be no change.
But precisely at that time, the young man broke into his world, accepted all his embarrassing appearances, and at the same time offered him redemption.
From then on, he was his Noah's Ark.
It was his boy, his miracle, his little warrior, his great judge.
Ji Mi looked at Chai Jiu, and couldn't help inserting/inserting his fingers into the other's hair. The once stubborn black hair was now half gray and half black, with silver strands mixed in the middle, softly sticking to her hair. on the head.
Probably Orientals are born with an advantage in maintaining their appearance. They look much younger than their actual age since they were young. As a result, 20 years later, Chai Jiu still looks old. It’s just that he worked too hard in his youth. Hair starts to turn gray early.
Chai Jiu's waist isn't good either, and he's been having problems lately, and he's been a little hunchback since he was a teenager, and his habit of always bowing his head hasn't been corrected for decades.
Perhaps in another ten years, the remaining black in the hair will gradually disappear, leaving only gray and silver; at the same time, the already slightly hunched back will also slowly bend.The only constant may be the increasing bad temper, right?Ji Gu smiled, as if foreseeing that little old man with silver gray hair and hunchback, dusting off the cigarette ash and arguing with him, banging the ashtray with his fingers.
Ji Mi wasn't afraid at all, so he let him make trouble, let him make noise, let him be a rascal.
--by that time.
Ji Mi thought.
--by that time.
Chai Jiu thought.
They hugged and kissed on the soft sofa, and the silver pair of rings with C&J letters engraved on their ring fingers touched together. They had a tacit understanding while looking at each other, and read the words that the other had not said.
——At that time, we will still be together.
Whether it's a hurricane, a tsunami, a volcano, an earthquake... even if the next second is doomsday and the sky falls apart, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Just hold hands like this until we go to the grave.
No heaven, no hell.
It's good to have you.
The author has something to say: In fact, there are too many things that I want to say, but in the end I will stop here (otherwise I really can’t finish it^_^), if there are more episodes in the future, I may add them on weibo On the board, the name is the captain who wrote the text.In short, this year, thank you little angels for your company, thank you for reading all the way here, love you (づ ̄3 ̄)づ.
The captain originally planned to start a new article in a few days, but he is about to undergo corrective eye surgery. After the operation, he may not be able to stare at the computer and write articles for a month, so the new article will be postponed to September. Goodbye everyone ~But no matter what, I really really like you guys!
Ji Mi arrived at EVIL in the early morning.
After getting on the highway, the car drove faster and faster, and the scenery outside the window became more and more desolate.
For the first time, he stepped foot in the so-called slums of the city.Before that, he had no concept of everything here, but when he really came to District [-], he realized that everything was far beyond his imagination.

The corpses of cats and dogs nearby are rotting little by little, and the cuckoo of the mourning bird is unreasonable. palpitations.
"I'm really sorry," the girl named Chai Mei saw him, she lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I shouldn't have asked you to come here, but... brother, he has really..."
Ji Gu touched the girl's head, indicating that she was fine.The girl had grown taller again, and looked more mature than when he first saw her.
"Take me to see him."
He hadn't seen his little warrior for almost a year.
The little soldier's hair was gray, and there were strands of silver in the black hair, which looked like a failed work done by an unqualified hair dyer.
Liar...Liar, Ji Mi panicked a little, he didn't expect that this person would look so bad.He also always lied to people on the phone, telling himself that he was fine.
The man who had always been 'good' was almost skinny to the bone, his back was even more hunched, and he seemed to be smoking a lot, his voice was so smoked that his voice was distorted.I don't know if he was too weak, but his face was pale and he was always coughing.
There are only four words left in Ji Mi's mind... Decline before you get old.He's only 19, but he looks like he's entering his twilight years.
"Cough...cough...cough..."
The little soldier started coughing again, maybe he caught a cold recently?The girl went up and patted him on the back familiarly, and poured hot water for him, as if she was familiar with it.
"Too slow...idiot...let me wait for you to wait..."
The boy's voice was light and ethereal, like soap bubbles, blowing over with the wind, and bursting with a poke.
"I've been waiting...too long...even my mother...has..."
"I'm sorry." Ji Mi looked at his back, and could hardly think of anything to comfort him.Just when he was thinking about opening his mouth, the boy's head plunged into his arms, like a drowning child, tightly grasping the last straw.
"Mom...all...going...Mom..."
His warrior, his hero, buried his head and sobbed in a low voice, revealing all his fragility and helplessness to him without reservation.
Chai Jiu, 19, has been struggling in this unkind world for four years.In order to take the woman back from the god of death, he paid too much price. He wished he could cultivate a whole body of copper skin and iron bones, and use his body to cast a high wall that could guard her, so that the executioner who killed life would be forever. Blocking the boundary line between hell and the world.
The tug-of-war was over, he had lost, crushed.
Death swung his scythe and took her from his sight.The mourning bird crowed on the tree, as if announcing the end of the war.
Ah ah ah ah ah!
The pain did not come suddenly, but it was enough to destroy everything.It cuts off all hope, as well as a fragile life, leaving only an endless sense of emptiness.After that it was as if something had been ripped out of the body, leaving only an ugly hole, and the wind blew in and made it whine like someone was crying.
Who else is crying?Of course, it's me.
Chai Jiu firmly grasped Ji Mi's shirt with both hands, as if he was about to fall off the edge of a cliff if he didn't do that.He choked up, his throat lost his voice, and he only felt the pain in his bones. The pain was long-lasting, as if he couldn't get rid of it in his life.
Ji Mi hugged the young man and kissed his forehead and wet cheeks. He knew the pain, and also knew that he was helpless.
It's like the day of the funeral of his grandparents, as the eldest grandson, he put on an adult's suit for the first time, holding a long manuscript and giving a speech on stage.
That day, when he stood on the stage, he realized that he couldn't speak a word.The strings of letters on the manuscript paper became extremely strange. He spent a lot of effort, trying to see their appearance clearly, trying to distinguish the meaning of each letter combination, but in the end it was in vain.Like tadpoles, they swam on the white paper, twisted and twisted together suddenly, turning into sewing needles, piercing his heart.
So his world became blank in an instant, there was no more joy and laughter, only endless pain, enough to make people forget all the pain of happiness.
And that pain, no prescription can relieve it, no one person can help.
Only the bearer himself, in the years to come, will use time to wash it away and dilute it little by little.
8.
"She walked...it shouldn't be painful..."
Chai Jiu muttered in a low voice while wiping the woman's face with a towel.
It was the first and only time Ji Mi saw this woman who was in the same blood as Chai Jiu.
She is a typical Chaider, she looks purer than Chai Jiu, and her complexion is so white that it is almost transparent.
Her black hair has long lost its luster, and the fine lines around her eyes are also faintly visible, but you still cannot deny the fact that she is a beauty.
At this moment, she just fell asleep, and her life will always stay at the age of 35, like a fairy tale.
"It's too bitter." Chai Jiu stared blankly at the woman, and finally lowered her head. "In her whole life, there has never been a day when she has not endured hardship."
Miss Cheadle was born during the Restoration War and spent nearly 15 years as a so-called noble lady. During this period, her father, brother and uncle all joined the battlefield to support the royal family.
In 15 years, she lost six older brothers, two uncles, two uncles and an aunt. They were all Chaidel's bravest fighters and heroes who sacrificed to protect honor.
——They invaded our land, burned our churches, plundered our treasures, killed our monarchs, forced us to forget our names, our history, and our beliefs... But Chaidel will never throw it away Honor, and will never let any sinner go!
Her parents were Cheadle, her mother was of the Cchildle offshoot, and her father was a cousin.This strong woman who also flows the blood of God of War resolutely chose to go to the battlefield with her husband after losing her brother and her beloved son.
Miss Cheadle witnessed her father and mother being sent to the guillotine, the manor and a large field were confiscated, and her young brother died tragically in front of her.The 12-year-old Cheadle boy stood in front of his sister with a gun in his hand, trying to drive the law enforcement officers out of their home.
She no longer has a home, and she has to give up her surname and first name.
"She was only 16 years old, married a man who ran a factory, and had two children. She opened a small piano room and taught students to play the piano every day. At first, the man was very kind to her, and then... His factory went bankrupt and owed a lot of debts, and they started to quarrel... and later, he drank, took/drugs, went completely insane, broke the things in the house, and... and... hit her Do it."
Chai Jiu's eyes were a little dazed.
"She suffered from depression, and there were either bruises or scars on her wrists. She could hardly survive, and she had to. That scum went to prison and left all the troubles to her. She had no choice but to carry The child hid in the [-]th district... She has suffered so much and has no hope in her life."
However, even so, she still holds her head up and pulls up all her energy to meet the unknown tomorrow.She still retains some aristocratic habits. She teaches the children the dining etiquette, teaches the children to read and write ancient characters, teaches the children to play the piano and sing, teaches the children to social dance, and teaches the children to practice fencing with bamboo poles...
She taught them to learn self-discipline and not be tempted by material desires, and she hoped that they could have independent and free souls.
She passed on the spirit of the Chaidel family to them, but she didn't want them to fight with hatred.
"Mom...my brother is going to college..." the girl cried out of breath, "Mom, just take a look at him...just take a look at him...don't go...don't go..."
The cry was so sad and helpless, if the deceased knew it underground, he would definitely feel distressed.
The wind blew in through the window, lifted the boy's thin shirt, and also blown away the messy hair on the boy's forehead, but it couldn't dry the tears on the boy's face.
He stood there with red eyes, like an abandoned child.
Ji Mi's heart skipped a beat, and at that moment, he finally made up his mind to do something.
"Student Chai Jiu," he hugged the boy from behind, stroked his forehead with his palm, and said that sentence without the slightest hesitation, "Please... marry me..."
Ji Mi had imagined a better scene of proposing to the boy, he had imagined the size of the diamond ring, the size of the flowers... But at this moment, none of that matters anymore, he just wants to hug the person in front of him and tell He, himself is always there.
"Let's go to England, to the Commonwealth, to anywhere in the world that allows us to be together, shall we?"
There will be no more politics, no more intrigue, no more strife, and nothing will ever separate them.
It was dawn, and he never wanted to see his little soldier cry again.
9.
How long has passed since then?
Ji Gu lay on the sofa and rubbed his eyes.
Already, 20 years.
"Morning~"
Slumped on the soft cushion, he lazily greeted Chai Jiu who was hurrying down the stairs.
"Is there a case today?"
"Yeah." Chai Jiu was straightening the cuffs of his suit as he walked, with an untied tie hanging around his neck.Ji Mi noticed that his eye sockets were a little blue, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.
Really, Ji Mi sighed.
He will be 40 years old next year, but he still works hard like a young man, and he must stay up all night before the trial of a major case.If things go on like this, the desire to become a presiding judge before the age of 50 is still very hopeful.
Time has turned him from the stubborn little soldier he once was into the great judge he is today.
Brother and sister Chai Jiu and Chai Mei both studied law at first.My younger sister switched to psychology after finishing her master’s degree, and is now active internationally, devoting herself to providing legal aid to teenagers who have suffered domestic violence, campus bullying, or even sexual/// assault, and helping them out of their spiritual difficulties .
Ji Mi once heard her speech when she was in England. The once fragile and helpless girl finally grew into a mature and capable professional woman unknowingly under the tempering of the suffering years.
Chai Jiu was already in her early thirties when she received her Juris Doctor degree.Ji Mi was very pleased about this, and they could finally officially live together.You have to know that in the 11 years before that, Chai Jiu was almost kidnapped by the monster named 'School', and spent day and night studying in the library. The exam made Ji Mi, who wanted to make a date, feel inexplicably guilty.
After finally graduating, they finally settled down in the Federation and bought this house with a small garden and a parking space.Driving from here, you can reach the court where Chai Jiu works in 10 minutes, and after another 10 minutes, you can see Luna's elementary school.
"Daddy! Good morning—"
The little loli in white pajamas threw herself into Ji Mi's arms, her black hair was curly, like a waterfall, reaching down to her waist.
They didn't plan to adopt/adopt/children at first, and Luna's appearance was an accident. When she was about eighteen months old, she was abandoned near the parking lot of the courthouse.She curled up in her baby and cried until Chai Jiu found her when she got off work.
So Mr. Cat and Little Mole, who were dumbfounded, fell into the pit and started a long journey of raising children.
The ghost knows what they went through to raise a little baby with congenital deficiencies into this lively little loli.
Neither of them has much experience in raising children, and they don't even know what brand of milk powder diapers to buy, how to comfort the baby when it cries, and even less know which vaccines the baby should get.
Ji Mi has been a pampered young master since he was a child, and he never took care of others a few times. Chai Jiu was considered a child of a wealthy family in his childhood. It's a troublesome and trivial job - his sister is only three years younger than him, she can take care of herself, and with her mother around, he doesn't need to worry too much.
During the eight years, they did not know how many times they committed stupidity in the pit of raising children.In fact, they can hire a nanny to take care of the children, but when Ji Mi recalled that when he was a child, he was always surrounded by maids, and when he woke up from a nightmare at night and his parents were not around, he gave up the idea of hiring a nanny. idea.
Not to mention Chai Jiu, he lacked paternal love since he was a child, and he couldn't stand children without their father's company the most. If it wasn't too busy at work, he could only wish to cling to little Luna 24 hours a day, be a good father who is always by his daughter's side, What I once wanted the most was doubled and poured into her.
In the first ten years they were together, because they were busy with their studies or careers, they always got together less and left more, so they were generally harmonious.For the next ten years, they finally lived together, and stumbling became commonplace.
Chai Jiu doesn't talk much on weekdays, and he's a workaholic with serious face paralysis.Everything is good but his temper is bad, he can be called a walking explosive/drug bag, you never know which muscle is wrong with him, and he will throw a fit like a storm.
As a young master who was spoiled by his family since he was a child, Ji Mi has never been so choked by anyone, and he looks a little pitiful.Most of his personality is gentle and gentle, and there are masochistic genes in it. He is born with an instinctive sense of admiration and obedience to strict people, so he rarely fights back, and only unilaterally scolds.
Because in the final analysis, the root of their conflicts is often because Ji Mi secretly committed suicide or did stupid things that Chai Jiu couldn't stand.
For example, drinking, racing, skipping work, taking medicine blindly, playing e-sports at home and almost forgetting to hold a parent-teacher meeting for little Luna, going out and spending money to bring home a bunch of useless things.
This 1.8-meter-five big man is like a brat who will never learn well.
Chai Jiu was so angry that he wanted to knock open this man's brain to see how many pitfalls there were.He figured it out, this person was completely pretending to be mature and stable when he was young, but he was actually crazier than anyone else when he messed around.
Ji Mi couldn't help but miss Chai Jiu when he was a boy. In fact, Chai Jiu had a bad temper at that time, but he hadn't evolved into the explosive/drug bag he is now, and he still had a way to hold him and coax him around.
It's a pity that when the boy became an adult, he became more and more difficult to be fooled. Not only was he gradually immune to Mr. Cat's hard-boiled routines, but he also controlled Mr. Cat to death.
For example, recently, because of a small mistake, Mr. Mao has been fined to sleep on the sofa for almost a week.
It's just that he is still playful in middle age, and he is still on the verge of being beaten. He doesn't do much piercing, but recently he has become obsessed with tattoos, with tattoos on his arms and back. Very eye-catching pattern.
He has always insisted on exercising and keeping fit, and his figure is very good, and his tattoos are not non-mainstream and exotic patterns, so he looks pretty cool.
It's a pity that Chai Jiu doesn't think so, because he knows that this undead guy is used to kicking his nose and face. If you indulge him in tattooing today, he will dare to tattoo his eyeballs tomorrow, and maybe he will do body embroidery by the way. .Therefore, he stared at the other party's stupid look, with a gloomy face as if he could squeeze out water.
——If you have any more messy tattoos, you will not enter the house.
--Uh-huh.Mr. Mao knelt on the washboard while covering his head in confession.
After all, the little mole has grown into a big mouse, even the cat is afraid of it.
But in all fairness, Chai Jiu is often unreasonable. This person is born with a dog temper and is particularly ignorant of good people.
Fortunately, after so many years, Ji Mi has already been trained to be invulnerable, no matter how coldly the other party knocks on the ashtray, he can deal with it very peacefully and calmly.
What's more, now, he has a good helper——
"Daddy," eight-year-old Luna pouted while holding milk, "why don't you eat breakfast again? You look like this, your stomach will feel uncomfortable again!"
If Ji Mi had said this before, Chai Jiu, who was troubled by getting up all over his body, would have pretended not to hear it, and then let it go his own way, and put on a bastard look of "huh, you don't care".But now little Luna is here.
"Oh—oh." Chai Jiu just got angry when she got up, and then retreated obediently.He obediently drank a glass of milk in one go, then picked up a piece of toast and turned around, intending to rush to the cloakroom.
"Daddy!" Little Luna pouted.
Chai Jiu's body stiffened for a moment, and she turned her head to meet her daughter's big round eyes, losing her temper instantly.Very resigned to his fate, he assumed a posture of surrender, then sat down obediently, and reluctantly fought fiercely with the bacon and fried eggs on the table.
Well done - Ji Mi and little Luna clapped their hands in perfect harmony.
Getting a grumpy workaholic to have a good breakfast is almost impossible, but fortunately, this workaholic is a hardcore daughter-slave.
Ji Mi felt that little Luna was probably specially sent by the Lord to help him cure Chai Jiu.
They had had many quarrels over her when the child was a baby.However, as little Luna grew up and became more sensible, Chai Jiu's temper improved a lot, and she gradually became more patient in speaking and doing things.
Since Luna went to elementary school and became sensible, she began to develop in the direction of the little padded jacket, knowing that it hurts people.And Chai Jiu, who was always unreasonable in the past, finally learned to be reasonable in front of his daughter, which is really gratifying.
But the little guy also had headaches. Ji Mi rubbed his temples helplessly. He almost couldn’t remember how many times he secretly drank at home and was reported to Chai Jiu by Luna. After washing the clothes board, I was reduced to the pitiful situation of sleeping on the sofa.
Little Luna called Ji Gu Daddy, and sometimes called him Kitten directly. Compared with her serious father, she was more used to playing around with this big brother-like man.
But if you ask her "Which one would you choose, Kitten or Dad?", the little guy will definitely choose Dad.The reason is that although my father doesn't like to laugh, he is very reliable. He will pick her up and drop off from school on time, and he will arrive at school on time to hold a parent-teacher meeting for her.
In addition, there seems to be something inexplicable about Chai Jiu, which always makes people habitually want to obey him.
"Nothing to do today?" Chai Jiu frowned and looked at Ji Mi who was lying on the sofa without a shape, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Hmm..." Ji Mi yawned, and replied very lazily, "As a boss, it's not a crime to take a vacation once in a while, right?"
"Huh..." Chai Jiu silently swallowed the words that just came to his lips, and only secretly condemned "ugly capitalists" in his heart.
Ji Mi graduated a few years earlier than Chai Jiu. He studied at an internationally renowned art college, where he studied cultural industry management. Most of the students he met were either rich or expensive, but they were also diverse and had an artistic heart. Ideal, there are also people who eat, drink and play.
Relying on his several years of experience in politics, he won over a group of "hunters and dog friends" from the cultural circle in the university, and his life was prosperous. He also aimed at opportunities several times during the period, and made a lot of money by investing. funds.
In the past, this amount of money was nothing to Ji Mi who was still in EVIL, but the times have changed, he is no longer a noble young master, and he is married and wants to support his family, so he doesn’t care about money.
He also has to buy a diamond ring for his little soldier.
After graduating, Ji Mi established a film base with his "fun friends and dog friends". He used the connections he made in the cultural circle when he was in school, and took advantage of the rising shareholder wind of the federal cultural industry to make a fortune. One of the purposes of going to art school in the first place.
After the business grew, he recruited Senior Aisa, an old hooligan who had been in the Two-dimensional circle for many years. The two bastards hit it off and started animation and game companies together. At the same time, they followed the Internet age and established Opened a barrage video website.
Ji Mi's playful nature made him invest in many horse farms and clubs successively after that. Not long ago, he planned to transform the film base into an open square, creating a comprehensive complex integrating film and television, leisure and sightseeing. sex tourist area.
On the one hand, it's for money, and on the other hand, it's probably... just for fun.
He seems unable to lead a step-by-step life all his life, and he does not have any ideals or pursuits in life. He has maintained a life attitude of aimless and directionless for a long time, passively letting the world push him.From his youth, what attracted him was always those things that were exciting, dangerous, chaotic and disorderly.
Once he was drinking, taking drugs, and self-abuse. While being tortured by pain, he enjoyed the state of being tortured. He thought that his life would be like this, and there would be no change.
But precisely at that time, the young man broke into his world, accepted all his embarrassing appearances, and at the same time offered him redemption.
From then on, he was his Noah's Ark.
It was his boy, his miracle, his little warrior, his great judge.
Ji Mi looked at Chai Jiu, and couldn't help inserting/inserting his fingers into the other's hair. The once stubborn black hair was now half gray and half black, with silver strands mixed in the middle, softly sticking to her hair. on the head.
Probably Orientals are born with an advantage in maintaining their appearance. They look much younger than their actual age since they were young. As a result, 20 years later, Chai Jiu still looks old. It’s just that he worked too hard in his youth. Hair starts to turn gray early.
Chai Jiu's waist isn't good either, and he's been having problems lately, and he's been a little hunchback since he was a teenager, and his habit of always bowing his head hasn't been corrected for decades.
Perhaps in another ten years, the remaining black in the hair will gradually disappear, leaving only gray and silver; at the same time, the already slightly hunched back will also slowly bend.The only constant may be the increasing bad temper, right?Ji Gu smiled, as if foreseeing that little old man with silver gray hair and hunchback, dusting off the cigarette ash and arguing with him, banging the ashtray with his fingers.
Ji Mi wasn't afraid at all, so he let him make trouble, let him make noise, let him be a rascal.
--by that time.
Ji Mi thought.
--by that time.
Chai Jiu thought.
They hugged and kissed on the soft sofa, and the silver pair of rings with C&J letters engraved on their ring fingers touched together. They had a tacit understanding while looking at each other, and read the words that the other had not said.
——At that time, we will still be together.
Whether it's a hurricane, a tsunami, a volcano, an earthquake... even if the next second is doomsday and the sky falls apart, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Just hold hands like this until we go to the grave.
No heaven, no hell.
It's good to have you.
