Chapter 48 Waste
Ning Yuan finally understood what was going to happen, he squeezed the bottle opener and shook his head frantically.
Luo Wensheng frowned, and looked at Ning Yuan's "senior", "What's going on? You're new here? So ignorant? Get out! Get a sensible one to come in!"
The senior was also a person who worked under Luo Wensheng, so he naturally understood what to do, and immediately pressed the back of Ning Yuan's head to apologize to the guests present, quickly took him out, and gave it to other waiters, and brought in a capable one himself.
Ning Yuan stood in the corridor, completely dazed.
He thought that he had participated in many banquets, and he had seen all kinds of banquets.
But he forgot the status of his Ning family in Zi'an City back then, and he also forgot that he was just a child in the past, and the banquets his parents took him to were all banquets he could go to.
Of course Ning Yuan has heard all kinds of rumors about people being drunk under the table and in the hospital.He thought it was people at the bottom of society who had to fight for their dignity and their lives in order to survive and obtain a better material life.
He never imagined that a person in Luo Wensheng's position would still not be able to escape from the cruel wine table culture.
Maybe, just maybe, it shouldn't have been a big deal.
What Ning Yuan saw and heard today has been challenging the edge of his cognition, so this "little" "unexpected" became the last straw that crushed Ning Yuan.
He sat with cold hands and feet in a tea room with no guests.
There were no lights in the tea room.From the open sliding door, one could see the tea room diagonally opposite from which he had just been kicked out.
The closed wooden lattice door is like the gate of a hospital operating room.Ning Yuan sat motionless in the shadows, like a family member of a patient waiting for the results of an operation in the corridor of a hospital.
There are only two outcomes of surgery, life or death.
My mind seems to be overwhelmed by many things.
It's like empty again, nothing.
After an unknown amount of time, the wooden lattice door of the tea room diagonally opposite was opened, and Luo Wensheng appeared with a white face, smiling frequently and turning around to say something to the people in the tea room. As soon as the door was closed, the smile on his face disappeared immediately. , pain emerges.
Ning Yuan didn't turn his head too much, just sat motionless in the shadows and watched.
The waiter waiting outside the tea room hurried forward to support Luo Wensheng, and the two quickly disappeared from Ning Yuan's sight.
Ning Yuan didn't know how long he had been sitting in a frozen state before the broken brain circuit was finally reconnected.He hurriedly got up and chased after him.
After wandering around, I found an empty tea room near the bathroom. Luo Wensheng was half-reclining on a bamboo chair, a waiter was holding a small bottle of brown liquid, and the other was standing aside holding a wet towel to pad Luo Wensheng's chin.The one holding the bottle said repeatedly: "Third Master? Third Master? Open your mouth and drink the medicine, huh?"
Luo Wensheng closed his eyes, frowned, and unconsciously grasped the armrests of the bamboo chair with both hands, as if he was enduring some great pain.
The two waiters were startled by Ning Yuan who suddenly opened the wooden lattice door. The one holding the towel didn't know Ning Yuan, and immediately shouted: "Who is it? Get out!" The other stopped him, "It's from the third master." Finally, he whispered again Said: "Apologize soon?" The waiter holding the towel hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
From the moment the wooden lattice door opened, Ning Yuan's eyes were full, only the man sitting in the bamboo chair was the only one.
"What is this?" Ning Yuan ran over, asked for the small bottle, and looked at the label on it.
"To relieve the hangover, the third master and Mr. Qin are here." The waiter hurriedly explained.
"Wen Sheng?" Ning Yuan leaned over and called softly, "Wen Sheng, can you hear me?"
Luo Wensheng raised his hand with some difficulty.Ning Yuan saw it, and hurriedly grabbed his hand—it was cold and covered in cold sweat.
"Wen Sheng?" Ning Yuan asked carefully.
"Medicine." Luo Wensheng closed his eyes and frowned.
Ning Yuan hurriedly picked up the small medicine bottle and fed it to Luo Wensheng.
Luo Wensheng closed his eyes and adjusted his breath for a moment, then asked, "Did you make a phone call?"
Ning Yuan was confused: "Ah? What..."
Before he finished asking, the waiter at the side had already responded: "Go back to the third master, I called early in the morning, don't worry."
Luo Wensheng opened his eyes, and stood up with difficulty while propping up the bamboo chair, "Go back."
Ning Yuan was at a loss, "Wen Sheng..."
Luo Wensheng ignored him, he could only watch Luo Wensheng leave with the help of the waiter.
Not long after, Uncle Bei, who was summoned by the phone, arrived and took Ning Yuan back.
He thought that Ning Yuan would make trouble and would stay and wait for Luo Wensheng to go back with him.But Ning Yuan is very good.
Just sitting in the back row was very silent all the way.
Then wept silently on the way.
*********
"You two, do you have someone you like?" Ning Yuan asked Tong Xin and Lu Chulin leaning on the fence of the roof of the teaching building.
Lu Chulin looked at Ning Yuan ghostly, "Oh? Our Young Master Ning, is he in love?"
Tong Xin came to his senses as if belatedly, and turned his head to look at Ning Yuan, "Really?! Is, is it Shen Lianjun?"
Ning Yuan couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."
The two quickly realized that Ning Yuan was in a bad mood, and hurriedly apologized, coaxing them in various ways, but it didn't work well, so they had to "explode themselves" obediently.
"I really don't have anyone I like." Lu Chulin leaned on the railing a little dejectedly, "I'm such a realistic person... In this experimental high school, it's destined that I won't have a relationship."
Ning Yuan looked at him sideways, but didn't speak.
Tong Xin asked stupidly: "I...don't understand what you mean."
Lu Chulin smiled: "I thought you would be the easiest to understand."
Seeing the innocence and confusion on Tong Xin's face, Lu Chulin sighed and explained: "What kind of place is this experimental high school, and what class are you and I?" Lu Chulin spread out his hands, "Who are you dating?"
He didn't say the most poignant thing.Some words, just put it in your heart and think about it——
As a toad, don't even think about eating swan meat.
Tong Xin pushed his glasses, expressed his agreement, and then made an explosive statement: "I don't have anyone to fall in love with... But, I have someone I like."
After being surprised, the gossip souls of Ning Yuan and Lu Chulin began to burn, "Damn it! You're promising! Who is who?!"
"Tang Tang." Tong Xin said.
Ning Yuan and Lu Chulin were slightly stunned, "Tang Tang? Who is it?"
Tong Xin was a little embarrassed and said: "A young lady who just debuted..."
Ning Yuan & Lu Chulin: "...Ah?!"
Lu Chulin: "Isn't that just chasing stars?"
Ning Yuan: "Please, I'm a freshman in high school, can you tell the difference between dreams and reality?"
Tong Xin argued nonchalantly: "But... chasing stars, isn't it just because you like them? The person you like is a celebrity... What's wrong... and I don't expect to be together in the future..."
Ning Yuan thought, no, there is really no difference between star chasing and secret love.When he first started thinking about it, didn't he also think that his feelings for Luo Wensheng were fans worshiping idols?
Maybe at first it was just pure longing and admiration, but it was too close and out of proportion.I want not only to be together now, but also to be together forever in the future...
"And, and..." Tong Xin plucked up his courage and said, "Dreams are still necessary! What if they come true?"
"Hahahahaha!" Lu Chulin laughed shamelessly, patted Tong Xin on the shoulder and said, "Okay! Brother, I support you! Come on! Fight!"
Ning Yuan couldn't laugh.Because he, like Tong Xin, is also talking about dreams.
So he asked very seriously: "Share your love experience?"
Ning Yuan's expression was very serious, so Tong Xin also thought about it seriously, and then answered him seriously.
"At the beginning, I was very happy. Every time I found a photo I hadn't seen before, every time I heard a song I hadn't heard before, and when I went to the supermarket, I found her endorsement billboard... I was very happy. .”
"Later...later, there will be a sense of emptiness. People are greedy, and they will become less and less satisfied with what they already have. Just flipping through photos on the Internet and listening to her songs, they can't fill their hearts. The feeling of emptiness that fills the heart... will give birth to many unrealistic fantasies."
"But I also know that those are just delusions. Haha. The delusional period is the saddest, but it passes quickly. Because... because I know very well that it is impossible."
"Now, just work harder every day. Tell yourself, so that you are worthy of being Tang Tang's fanboy."
"I think...whether it's star chasing or dating, the most important thing is to make yourself better and better."
Tong Xin turned his head and smiled, "This is how I can be worthy of my liking for that person."
Ning Yuan & Lu Chulin: "..."
Ning Yuan's height has already reached 1.7 meters, poor Tong Xin still failed to break through 1.6 meters, standing with the other two teenagers, like a younger brother who was brought out to play.Besides, he still has a baby face.
Lu Chulin looked at him and rubbed the top of his head hard.
"Hey! Don't press my head all the time, you two!" Tong Xin was very unhappy, "The president is not tall!"
Ning Yuan looked at the two of them, smiled, turned around and lay on the railing, looking at the playground, and said nothing.
On the weekend, Ning Yuan went to Shen's house - the delicate and frail Second Miss of Shen's family couldn't come to school during the period of autumn and winter seasons and frequent colds, so Ning Yuan went to Shen's house to give her extra lessons.
Of course, "remedial lessons" are all excuses.The children of their class do not depend on school at all for the learning of textbook knowledge.Going to school is all about things that are not available in textbooks and in the family.
Coupled with the special relationship between Luo Wensheng and Shen Yijun, the one who can give Shen Lianjun "remedial lessons" is none other than Ningyuan.
"Really? That's really funny!" Shen Lianjun covered his mouth and laughed happily after listening to Ning Yuan's story about what happened in school.
Ning Yuan also laughed, but the smile faded away quickly, and the rest was all trying to pretend.
Shen Lianjun looked at Ning Yuan, "Xiao Yuan, are you unhappy?"
Ning Yuan looked up at her, smiled, and didn't deny it.My own state has always been very wrong, and I have been asked this way by many people, so there is no point in covering it up.
"Well, something happened recently. But it's not a big deal. It'll be all right soon."
"Arguing with the third master...isn't it a big deal?" Shen Lianjun tilted her head and asked in a low voice.
Ning Yuan looked at her.
Shen Lianjun smiled, "You know what? When you first came to my house to chat with me, I discovered something."
"What?" Ning Yuan was a little nervous.
"You will mention the third master frequently."
Shen Lianjun first came up with a conclusion, and then gave an example: "Every time you say something, you will almost always add 'my uncle Luo' so what. No matter whether the third master's views and behaviors are in line with the world or deviate from it, what do you say? When I got up, I always said "my uncle Luo". What I said and did was the golden rule, and my longing and admiration were beyond words."
Ning Yuan's face was hot, and he quickly reflected on himself, "... huh? I... have it?"
"And—" Shen Lianjun leaned forward, smiling a little badly, "Although you are trying to cover up as much as possible, but several times, you didn't say 'Uncle Luo', but——'Wen Sheng' .”
Ning Yuan: "..."
Shen Lianjun leaned back in the chair, looked at the embarrassed Ning Yuan, and smiled more and more happily, "'Wen Sheng' hey~ There are only a handful of people who can be called San Ye like that."
Ning Yuan: "..."
He smiled in embarrassment, and explained in a panic: "You know... I didn't tell you, I knew him when I was very young... In terms of seniority, I really should call him 'uncle', but... "
"You like him." Shen Lianjun said.
Needless to say.
The air freezes.
"Well, I like it, I like it, he is so good and takes good care of me, how can I not like it, this is not nonsense. Hahahaha. However, it always feels weird to use the word 'like'... I know Yes, you girls like to watch the love story of two boys together now, and my liking for Wen Sheng is definitely not like that! Absolutely not! Don’t get me wrong!” Ning Yuan tried every means to explain, “It’s worship !worship!"
Shen Lianjun: "But, if you just worship, you won't show such a lonely expression."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"I really don't like it." Ning Yuan got up and packed his things, "I'm going back."
Shen Lianjun grabbed him, with a puzzled face: "Why don't you admit it? There is no indestructible reason that can stop you from being together, isn't there?"
Ning Yuan froze there and did not move.
"Time." He squeezed two words through his teeth.
Shen Lianjun wondered: "Time? You will be 16 soon? Then you will be 18 in two years? And speaking of it, age or something..."
"It's not what you said!" Ning Yuan tried his best to stabilize his tone, but the turbulent flow in his body always found an outlet. When he came back to his senses, the cover of the book he was holding had been wrinkled.
"Then the 'time' you mentioned is...?" Shen Lianjun asked.
"I was too naive to think of everything too easily. Wen Sheng...maybe your sister is too. Their battlefield is far more cruel than we imagined....I can only watch and do everything No."
"My liking is of no use. On the contrary, it has caused him great trouble and distress."
"Nothing good. He's not happy, and I'm not happy either."
Recalling these days, Ning Yuan was full of frustration.
Shen Lianjun said cautiously: "Sorry, I didn't understand... what does this have to do with 'time'?"
Ning Yuan was stunned, sorted out his increasingly chaotic thoughts, and replied: "I think I can help him, but now I can't do anything. The situation on the 'battlefield' is changing rapidly, and he needs a strong man right now." I have a powerful partner by my side, but I can't grow into a person who is useful to him in a short period of time!...Your sister, Yijun, is the most suitable for him."
Shen Lianjun looked at Ning Yuan for a while, called him "Xiao Yuan" softly, stretched out his hand to pull him over, and asked him to bend down and get close to himself sitting in the chair.
Then he slapped it with a "slap"!
Shen Lianjun didn't hit hard, but it was very loud.
Ning Yuan was completely dumbfounded, and looked at the weak girl in front of him in astonishment.
"Are you sober now?" Shen Lianjun asked with a smile.
Ning Yuan: "..."
Shen Lianjun sighed, "It seems that you still don't understand. Really, it turns out that boys who are plunged into feelings are more irrational than girls."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"Sit there." Shen Lianjun nodded her chin, ready to educate Ning Yuan well.
Ning Yuan sat back in the chair obediently.
Shen Lianjun sighed again, "Third Master is also true. He is so shrewd in the business field. What did he do to you when he returned home to make you like this. All men are indeed emotional fools."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"Let me correct the first point first." Shen Lianjun raised her index finger and told Ning Yuan seriously, "My sister is amazing! Super amazing! Even without the third master, she can take care of the Shen family very well by herself. good!"
"The most difficult days of the Shen family have passed, and those days were carried by my sister alone." Shen Lianjun seemed to be thinking about something, with a sad expression on his face.
"Isn't there... your father, Second Uncle Shen, Uncle Shen Third?" Ning Yuan asked.
"Then the third master also has Patriarch Luo, his second brother, and his third brother?" Shen Lianjun asked back.
"It's different!" Ning Yuan retorted, "Wen Sheng is at Luo's house..."
"It's nothing different." Shen Lianjun interrupted Ning Yuan, "Don't think that only your third master is pitiful. Since ancient times, the Tian family has no father and son, and everyone's life is hard."
Ning Yuan: "..."
Shen Lianjun: "That's why they need us. We are such 'trash'."
Ning Yuan opened his eyes wide.
"I don't know much about the situation with the third master, but I think it should be similar to my sister."
Shen Lianjun turned his head to look at the autumn scenery outside the window, and said slowly: "They worked too hard outside. No matter how tough a person is, there will always be a moment when he wants to stop, take a rest, and even wants to have some rest. A shoulder to lean on."
"But they are so good. The people they met outside are as tough as them. Once a person has too many resources, it will be difficult to enjoy simple interpersonal relationships."
"Moreover, the establishment of an intimate relationship takes a long time and a lot of hard work to achieve. For them now, it is difficult to find such a person."
"Of course the third master is stronger than my sister. According to the general world theory, it is only logical for a strong woman to find a man stronger than her to rely on, isn't it?"
"But that's not the case."
"Sister, she has too many burdens. If she relies on someone wholeheartedly, it means that she has to give all of her burdens to that person. She will not do this."
"The third master will not hand over the things he carries to anyone. In the world of their group of people, no one will do this. Everyone is a lone ranger."
"Do you know why I was born in the Shen family but know nothing about this circle?" Shen Lianjun turned around and asked Ning Yuan with a smile.Then without waiting for his answer, he said, "Because I don't want to step into their world. Because my sister needs someone who doesn't belong to that world."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"My sister's favorite thing to do is to come to my room after a hard day's work outside, to lie on my lap, and to watch girls' anime and bubble dramas with me. She doesn't watch much, because she doesn't So much time to chase. She just likes to stare at the screen and listen to me. Many times, she just falls asleep like that..."
Shen Lianjun seemed to be recalling some beautiful pictures, and she smiled softly, "Every time I look at my sister's sleeping face, I can't help but think, oh, this woman who is so powerful outside, when she is asleep, It’s just the face of a young girl who doesn’t know much about the world.”
"But only I can see that. Because only in that fairy-tale bedroom, my sister can let go of all defenses and burdens, and fall asleep peacefully like that."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"The marriage between my sister and the third master is just to take a shortcut. But it doesn't mean that they really need each other. How many difficulties we didn't know in the past, they have overcome it by themselves. It doesn't make sense for them Now that it has become more and more prosperous, it has become especially in need of the help of other forces. If there is help, it is everywhere, and the difference is whether it is the best solution."
"But there may not be a place where he feels 'home'."
Ning Yuan: "..."
Shen Lianjun: "That's why boys are idiots! They're always shouting to 'be stronger'! 'Be stronger'! To 'walk shoulder to shoulder'! Have you read too many juvenile comics?"
Ning Yuan: "..."
"But you are also well aware of the problem - time. It is because we were not born in the same era as them, so we want to be their right-hand man, but there is an insurmountable gap. Frozen three feet, not one The cold of the day. Let those of them who have accumulated huge power through time help each other, "little waste" like us, there are things that only we can do, right?"
Shen Lianjun smiled at Ning Yuan.Qiuyang passed through the window lattice, and under the golden light, she was still the two-dimensional girl who seemed ignorant of the world.
Ning Yuan looked at Shen Lianjun silently.
After a long time, he asked: "Mr. Lian, you... like..."
"Well, I like it." Shen Lianjun interrupted Ning Yuan with a smile.
Ning Yuan: "..."
"It's not the kind of liking you have for the third master." Shen Lianjun said again.
Ning Yuan: "..."
Ning Yuan: "You mean, my 'like' doesn't deserve to compare with your 'like' at all, does it?"
Shen Lianjun: "Oh, I suddenly became smarter."
Ning Yuan: "You... don't want them to get married, do you?"
Shen Lianjun was still smiling, "My sister doesn't love the third master. What's the point of sacrificing my sister's marriage for the sake of the family? If a family is reduced to a woman's marriage to save it, let it live on its own." Self-destruction is good. What do you think?"
"You... want to..." Ning Yuan paused, and swallowed back the "use" that was about to blurt out, "Use me to make Wen Sheng regret the marriage?"
"It's annoying, why do you make it sound like I'm using you~ It's just mutual benefit." Shen Lianjun smiled and waved his hands, then shrugged, "If you insist on saying yes, then yes."
Ning Yuan: "..."
"It took so much trouble, why didn't you persuade Miss Yijun?" Ning Yuan asked.
"If you can persuade him, why bother?" Shen Lianjun asked back.
"My sister is like your third master. She is astute in business, but she is easy to get into the horns in other things. My sister has sacrificed too much for this family. It's really enough. "
"Looking at you, the third master must not have told you that he and his sister have no feelings for each other, have they?"
Ning Yuan: "..."
I really didn't know it before, but after hearing so much from Shen Lianjun, I have already noticed it somewhat.
"The two of them agreed that even if they got married, they would play their own way. Heh, I'm just deceiving myself. With so many eyes staring at each other and carrying the honor of their respective families, how could it be so easy to 'play their own way'? Or Fall in love with each other for a long time, or the two will hate each other."
"The two of them are such excellent people, would they hate each other?" Shen Lianjun asked Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan: "..."
The author has something to say: Thanks to the little angels who follow the article!
Thank you for tolerating and updating me so irregularly (kneeling, crying bitterly)
