The Cliff of Eternal Sun

Chapter 14

The work in Guiyuan Store is not busy, it can even be regarded as leisure.Perhaps it was because the items sold in the store were too messy, which made people confused. Only four or five people came in in one morning, and they all sold a box of badminton for 20 yuan.

Aunt Lin didn't seem to care about these things, she just sat behind the counter knitting her sweater, and looked up at the passers-by from time to time. After knitting half a sweater sleeve in the morning, she held it up and looked at it for a long time, feeling that it was inappropriate. , and completely demolished, which is equivalent to no progress.However, Wei Mu couldn't sit idle with peace of mind, mopped and swept all the floors in the store, wiped all the counters and table tops, and now tried to repair a broken handle on a cabinet.

Seeing him busy, Aunt Lin couldn't help but call him: "Don't be busy, this job is not in a hurry, sit down and rest for a while."

Wei Mu fiddled with the handle a few more times, and after confirming that he could only go out and buy new parts to repair it, he closed the cabinet door, obeyed Aunt Lin's words, and moved a small bench to the door.

The sunshine of May came in from outside the door, covering his whole body, making his hair black and softly shiny, and his slightly pale face was left clean and handsome by the sun.

Aunt Lin looked at him and suddenly laughed.

Wei Mu raised his head strangely, and Aunt Lin smiled and said, "Clean up and take a shower like this, he looks much better than two days ago, he's obviously such a handsome young man."

Wei Mu was embarrassed by what she said, touched his long hair, and smiled.

Aunt Lin took the needle, put down the sweater, looked at Wei Mu, and chatted casually: "Let me guess, you have stayed here for the past few days and refused to leave, did you have a fight with your girlfriend, she lives in this community ?”

Wei Mu raised the corners of his mouth reluctantly: "It's not necessarily a girlfriend..."

"Ok?"

"It's also possible that they were kicked out by their parents."

Aunt Lin obviously didn't believe it, and said with a smile: "How can parents bear to let their children go outside for so many days?"

Wei Mu didn't say a word, he thought, there are actually such parents in this world, if one day he really got lost and couldn't return home for many days, he couldn't even say for sure that Liang Yan would go out to find him.

But he didn't want to refute Aunt Lin. After being silent for a while, he asked: "If, as you just said, he is very angry with me, and he doesn't even want to see me anymore, what should I do to be able to do so?" Let him calm down?"

When he asked, he felt a little regretful, wondering if he shouldn't have said it, but he really couldn't think of any way to do it alone, and he didn't know how to break the difficult situation in front of him.

Aunt Lin said, "That depends on what you two are fighting about."

Wei Mu pursed his lower lip. Reasons like "derailment" are always difficult to explain, but now that the conversation has started, he

In the end, he said frankly: "He thinks I cheated."

Aunt Lin's eyes changed instantly, and Wei Mu noticed that he felt a little uncomfortable. Even though he never felt that he was really cheating, he firmly believed that there must be some misunderstanding, but facing Aunt Lin's gaze at this moment, he felt a little uncomfortable. Still as if he had done something shameful and was discovered, he subconsciously wanted to hide.

After a moment of silence, Aunt Lin asked him, "So are you really cheating?"

"I won't do that kind of thing!" Wei Mu became a little excited, as if rushing to defend himself, but after this sentence, his momentum immediately weakened, "But, I really can't remember, he I don't have the slightest impression of the things you said..."

The sun seemed to be useless suddenly, no matter how hot it was, it couldn't take away the paleness and decadence on his body.Aunt Lin sat at the counter and looked at him. She wanted to despise the betrayal in her relationship, but for some reason, she felt that the young man in front of her was not lying.

"If that's the case, what's the use of you sitting here all day?" Aunt Lin sighed, "Since you know where the problem is, if you really want to solve it, the first thing you should do is to find out what happened. Something? If you really didn't do it, just show her the evidence, and she will naturally forgive you. Besides, it's useless for you to do anything now, it will only make her more angry. "

She looked at Wei Mu like an elder asking her younger generation: "Why don't you find the truth?"

In front of such a clear question, Wei Mu looked away hastily, as if he had been stabbed.

Why not go find the truth?He didn't even dare to think about it.

A conversation did not lead to any useful results. Wei Mu was still the same as the previous few days, sitting on the bench every morning and evening waiting for Ji Suian's car to pass by. Fortunately, now he has a shelter given by Aunt Lin. Instead of being in a mess like before, after Ji Suian drove past, he went back to the shop and continued to do his work.

He didn't seem to cross the red line to disturb Ji Suian's life, but it was like a thorn in Ji Suian's heart, every time he saw it, it would pierce an inch deeper.

Ji Suian went to T University on Friday.

After discussing the business, Ji Suian did not leave with the rest of the company, but followed his mentor Wu Shuoxin to the laboratory.He had spent a long time here, and stepped in again after a few years, but he had already changed his identity.

"Look at how Xueming sees you," Professor Wu said with a big laugh. "When you were studying, he always wanted to dig you away from me. I heard that he felt sorry for you for a long time after you stopped studying for a Ph. I don’t regret getting up, that look haha.”

Ji Suian followed him with a smile: "Although it's a pity that I didn't study Chengbo, but now it's a different form to continue on this path."

Wu Shuoxin leaned on the experimental table and looked at him, the curtains were all drawn, and the sunlight reflected from outside delicately outlined the calm and handsome outline of the young man in front of him. Wu Shuoxin felt a little satisfied and proud in his heart, hissed, and asked He said, "Do you really feel sorry?"

Look at his posture, if Ji Suian nods, the next thing he can say is that you should sign up now and I will recruit you.

Ji Suian smiled and shook his head: "I may have some regrets about parting from the school teachers, but I don't feel any regrets. It's just two different choices, there is no distinction between good and bad."

When he said these words, Wu Shuoxin kept looking at him, nodded when he finished speaking, and said: "You are right, whether you are engaged in scientific research or business, the teacher believes that you can do your best with your ability. .”

After he finished speaking, he hesitated again, as if he was hesitating whether he should ask the next words.Ji Suian saw it, and asked, "Do you have any questions, Teacher?"

Wu Shuoxin said, "Have you encountered anything recently?"

Ji Suian was taken aback: "Why do you ask such a question?"

"Your complexion is not very good." Wu Shuoxin expressed genuine concern, "During the meeting just now, Xiao Liu called you twice before you agreed. I rarely see you like this."

Yes, Ji Suian lost his mind during the meeting. He had never been like this before, but today he was facing a group of school leaders, and he lost his mind for a short time. The concentration he was originally proud of seemed like The stretched rubber band has made him lose his composure frequently in the past few days.

Wu Shuoxin looked at the silent person in front of him, and suddenly remembered that several years ago, Ji Suian was in a very bad state, which was much worse than what he is now, and he did not come to school for more than two weeks. When I appeared in the laboratory, I looked like I lost a lot of weight. When I arrived in the laboratory, I immersed myself in work, as if I wanted to make up for the day I missed. I often left at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, and sometimes I even worked overnight. In the experiment, if it is not necessary, I can not say a word for a whole day, there is no smile on my face, and there are few emotions.At that time, from Wu Shuoxin to the students in the laboratory, every one of them observed him carefully, for fear that he would kill him one day.That state lasted for nearly a month, and when he entered the laboratory one morning, the depression on Ji Suian's body had been swept away, and he was calm and steady again.

Wu Shuoxin also heard some rumors from students at that time, saying that he had something to do with a former student of the School of Public Management, but because he could not get confirmation from the person concerned, he did not know how credible the rumors were.

Although the current Ji Suian is not at the same level as before, it is abnormal enough for Ji Suian to appear in such a state of absent-mindedness.

In the end, Wu Shuoxin still didn't get a definite answer from Ji Suian's mouth, and he didn't continue to ask. Seeing that the sun was setting outside, he changed the subject: "You haven't eaten at school for a long time, go, go to the cafeteria, I'll treat you .”

He made a joke: "Mr. Ji, don't dislike the rough food in our small cafeteria."

Ji Suian also laughed: "How could that be?"

When I came out after eating in the cafeteria, the dusk had already set, and the surrounding was a diluted dim blue.Wu Shuoxin went to pick up his car in the parking lot behind the library, Ji Suian accompanied him and walked there, and when he saw Wu Shuoxin off, Ji Suian didn't leave immediately.

The library is brightly lit at night, and a circle of luxuriant sycamores around it cast scattered shadows under the light of the street lamps.Ji Suian stood not far away and looked up at the tall building of the library. Students with bags on their backs kept passing by, some came out of the library, some went in. Their steps were light and youthful. future.

He has also walked here with Wei Mu countless times, just like them.

The words Wu Shuoxin asked him during the day rang in his ears, and Ji Suian thought, Wei Mu is like the most stupid hunter, without any superb skills, but only because of his stupidity, he is more patient.Although he was reluctant to think that he would become a prey, he had to admit that his life was deviating from the normal track because of Wei Mu.

He is frequently dragged back to his past memories. Those old events that he thought he had forgotten long ago, now seem to be just a tide of leaving for a short time. It's a matter of a split second.
