Chapter 89 Cousin



Chapter 89 Cousin

◎I suggest you meet this man as soon as possible◎

Isn’t this the case that Liu Liangju just talked about?

The serious crime squad finally had a day off today, with no missions assigned from above, and was just planning to welcome Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao and clean up after them, but who knew this would happen just as they were about to get off work?

Xu Songling looked at Gao Guangqiang helplessly and said, "You are the only group left free."

Gao Guangqiang stood up without hesitation: "Yes!"

Everyone's gaze shifted collectively once again, from Liu Liangju's face to Zhao Xiangwan's face.

Zhao Xiangwan smiled: "I have nothing to do with Ji Zhao, the case is more important."

Zhu Feipeng was a little annoyed: "I was going to treat you to a big meal and let you introduce the investigation methods and characteristics of Kyoto, but I didn't expect that you would have a mission so soon."

He Mingyu glared at Liu Liangju and said, "Good things don't work, but bad things do. You are such a crow-mouthed person that you put the case on us as soon as you mention it."

Zhu Kang spoke up for Liu Liangju: "Junior Sister He, don't blame Old Liu. He just said happily that the case would be handed over to the Santai Road Police Station and he was ready to take a break. Who knew that he would be handed over to our serious crime unit so soon?"

Liu Liangju spread his hands and looked innocent: "I didn't want to do that. How could I have known that it would happen to us?"

Xu Songling looked at Zhao Xiangwan with an apologetic look: "The police station has requested support. It seems that the case is very complicated. I'm afraid we have to start working right away. So, I will send someone to send you and Ji Zhao back..."

Zhao Xiangwan said, "Don't bother. I'll call President Ji and ask him to come over. He hasn't seen Ji Zhao for so many days, and I'm afraid he must be in a state of panic."

Xu Songling thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then you can contact me and we can discuss the case."

Ji Zhao was always calm and composed, and he would follow Zhao Xiangwan's arrangements in everything.

The serious crime team was busy with their work. He quietly took out his sketchbook and began to draw a portrait of Zhao Xiangwan.

Since getting Zhao Xiangwan's permission, Ji Zhao would paint Zhao Xiangwan's portrait whenever he had free time.

He drew dynamic sketches and small portraits one after another. If Ji Zhao had not been away from home and could not complete the drawing, he would have already started creating oil paintings.

Zhao Xiangwan had just experienced a female college student murder on campus. Because he was deeply involved in the case, he felt a little tired and wanted to take a break, so he didn't plan to ask about the murder case in the elementary school dormitory. After talking to Ji Jinmao on the phone for a few words, he took Liu Lizi to play with building blocks.

This time, Liu Lizi brought a box of building blocks to play with. He used wood of different shapes to build houses, bridges, flowers, etc. and had a lot of fun.

Three-year-old Liu Lizi is very cute, smart, and sweet-talker. While directing Zhao Xiangwan to take this and put that, she also imitated the tone of a kindergarten teacher and said "You are so good!", "Great!", "Sister, you are so awesome!", making Zhao Xiangwan feel that he was the kid in the kindergarten and Liu Lizi was the teacher.

Being with such a little girl, one can feel relaxed. There is no need to worry about her saying one thing and thinking another, or to guess her true intentions. This feeling makes Zhao Xiangwan very happy.

From time to time, bits of case information floated over the desk of the serious crime squad, but Zhao Xiangwan did not listen deliberately, nor did he take any serious notes.

[Alas, another female victim, I feel so bad...]

——This is He Mingyu expressing his feelings.

Hearing this, Zhao Xiangwan couldn't help but fall into thought. Having been in the serious crime squad for such a long time, he has come into contact with many cases, big and small, such as Weng Pingfang, Zhan Xiaolan, Wei Qingwan, Wen Qianyu... Most of the victims are women. Why?

From a physiological perspective, men and women have obvious differences in physique and strength. Men are strong, while women are weak. As the saying goes, "one strength defeats ten skills." Once a conflict occurs between men and women, the suppressed party is often women. For example, in domestic violence, the perpetrators are usually men. Are there female perpetrators? Yes, I once heard He Mingyu say that a female judo athlete had been abusing her weak husband for many years. But the proportion of such a family structure with weak men and strong women is very small.

From an emotional perspective, women tend to be more sentimental, especially after becoming mothers. The hardships of pregnancy and childbirth make them more resilient, tolerant, and generous. Men are realistic and rational, analyzing everything from the perspective of pros and cons, and they are in a strong position in the social structure. This difference makes women naturally in a weak position when conflicts occur between men and women.

Like the case of Wen Qianyu, the man's sexual impulse led to a tragic case, and she was powerless to resist. As a woman, Zhao Xiangwan has seen too many such cases and is really tired.

Should the police organize a lecture to teach women how to avoid risks and protect themselves? Thinking of this, Zhao Xiangwan took out a notebook and wrote two lines, preparing to report to Xu Songling when he had time.

Ji Jinmao arrived very quickly.

Although Mr. Ji is usually very busy, he always puts his family first. After receiving Zhao Xiangwan's call, he drove over personally, picked up Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao, and went straight to the top floor of the Four Seasons Hotel.

This was Zhao Xiangwan's second visit to the rooftop of the Four Seasons Hotel.

The last time they came here was because Ji Zhao was missing, and the serious crime squad was having dinner here, so Xu Songling brought everyone to search together.

The top floor of the Four Seasons Hotel has a very wide view.

The sky is clear and blue. Standing on it and looking down, you can see a pile of five- or six-story buildings all around. In the distance, you can see the Cangcui Mountain, Jinlian Lake, and Zao River.

A lot of thought went into the decoration of the roof. Not only was a large area of ​​grass laid, but a green fence was also erected with crape myrtles, hibiscus, osmanthus, and virginiana, dotted with embroidery, roses, camellias, azaleas and other flowers and trees. The bamboo racks on the east side were covered with pink and purple flowers, and bunches of grapes hung on the grape racks. There was also a swimming pool with rippling blue water on the southwest side.

The magnificent rooftop garden villa opened Zhao Xiangwan's eyes. Although he had seen a lot of the world since coming to Xing City, he was still shocked when he stood on the rooftop of the Four Seasons Hotel.

Ji Zhao took Zhao Xiangwan's hand and led him under the grape trellis.

[Do you like grapes? This variety is quite sweet.]

Although Ji Zhao didn't say anything, as long as he had this person in his mind, his observation was very careful and attentive. He knew that Zhao Xiangwan liked to eat sweet and sour fruits, such as grapes and oranges. Eight parts sweet and two parts sour were best. If the sourness was too much, she would find it sour, and if the sweetness was too much, she would find it tasteless.

He also knew that Zhao Xiangwan didn't like food with overly complicated flavors. She only ate the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made by the Four Seasons Hotel for fun, but what she really liked were those country and heavy-flavored dishes, such as potato pancakes, braised pork, home-cooked eggplant, and fried eggs with green onions.

Although the hotel's rooftop garden is gorgeous, what makes Zhao Xiangwan happiest is probably the grape trellis with branches full of fruits.

The grape racks were not very high, and the bunches of green and purple grapes hanging down were very tempting. Zhao Xiangwan heard Ji Zhao's words, tiptoed slightly, reached out and picked a grape and put it in his mouth.

The taste was juicy, two parts sour and eight parts sweet. Zhao Xiangwan's eyes lit up and he picked another one.

One by one, Zhao Xiangwan finished the whole string without realizing it.

Ji Zhao did not disturb her happiness of picking and tasting the grapes by herself. He sat on a white lounge chair and watched Zhao Xiangwan eat the grapes.

When Zhao Xiangwan had finished her meal and turned around, Ji Zhao stood up and asked her to sit on the recliner, while he moved a square stool and sat next to her.

The two of them took the train back from Kyoto together and arrived at the Serious Crime Unit at around four o'clock. When they returned to the Four Seasons Hotel, it was already past five o'clock. The sun was setting in the west, sinking towards the verdant mountains, and the western sky was covered with beautiful clouds of light.

Aqua, pink, orange, gold, yellow, tangerine...

Various colors spread out in the sky, and brilliant light was cast from the rooftop, just like a fairyland.

Zhao Xiangwan lay in the chair, looking up at the ever-changing sky, his heart calm.

Although evil is always happening in this world, the sky at this moment is breathtakingly beautiful.

It feels so good to be alive.

[Is it nice? I like watching the sunset the most. ]

"It's beautiful. The clouds in the west are so pretty."

[It is difficult to paint this color exactly. ]

"Why does it have to be exactly the same? Just draw the shocking feeling."

Ji Zhao's eyes suddenly became focused and his gaze became scorching.

Zhao Xiangwan was just saying whatever came to her mind, and she didn't know why Ji Zhao suddenly got excited. She met Ji Zhao's gaze and raised her eyebrows slightly: "What?"

Ji Zhao stretched out his right hand and held her left hand tightly.

The skin feels soft and warm when in contact with it.

The little skylark seemed to sense something and started chirping and jumping on the branches.

[Don't they need to be exactly the same? You just need to express that feeling, right? ]

Zhao Xiangwan nodded: "Yes, we see so many things, which one is the most beautiful? No one can tell. Processing those beautiful pictures in the mind and then expressing them, isn't this creation?"

Ji Zhao suddenly laughed.

His smile was like the sun breaking through the clouds, illuminating the earth in an instant.

It also dazzled Zhao Xiangwan's eyes.

The curved eyebrows and eyes are full of joy. The dark and deep pupils are shining with bright light, as if they are a huge black hole, sucking in all the emotions of people, emotion, joy, obsession, happiness...

Zhao Xiangwan didn't hear any sound, but he could see changes in Ji Zhao's little world.

Previously, the big tree where the skylark stood only had one branch sticking out at an angle. The skylark sang alone on the branch and built its nest in the gaps between the branches. Now the big tree showed its full posture.

The branches are lush and leafy, and full of flower buds. Looking at the tree full of flower buds, it seems as if you can smell the rich fragrance of the flowers.

【You said it very well. It turns out that not all pictures need to be recorded. 】

季昭說完這句話,忽然就閉上了眼睛。

他的小世界開始有風流動。

呼,呼,呼——

無數落葉、雜草被風卷到半空,飛散開來,消失不見。

趙向晚的嘴角漸漸上揚,有了一絲笑意。

季昭這是清掃腦中多餘的記憶吧?

人們常恨記憶太差,不能将往日美好都記在腦海。殊不知記憶其實是有一定容量限定的,過多的荷載将令我們痛苦。

試想想,你能記住發生在自己身上的每一件事情。任何一天,那一天你發生的什麽事,你身邊的人發生了什麽事,你通過電視、報紙、雜志了解世界發生了什麽事,甚至包括你走過街口的時候看到的每一個人,他們穿着什麽衣服,臉上什麽表情,說着什麽話……所有所有,你都記得清清楚楚。

多麽恐怖!

季昭雖然不是超憶症患者,但他對畫面有超強的記憶,只要是看過的場景,都能完美複刻,這樣的天賦,對他而言或許是一種折磨。

因為不懂得什麽是遺忘,所以他被迫将生活中每一天的畫面都存入腦海,他不敢與外界交流,不敢和人說話,因為這樣他将會擁有更多的記憶。

現在趙向晚無意間一句話,讓他明白了一件事:遺忘。

小世界裏的風,是他主動掀起的遺忘之風。

把那些不緊要的、不相幹的、不愉快的畫面,盡數吹出腦海。

安排好了晚飯的季錦茂輕手輕腳地走過來,看到季昭閉着眼睛坐在凳子上不言不語,有點緊張,看了看趙向晚,用手勢、嘴型比劃:他怎麽了?

趙向晚伸出一根食指,比在唇邊,示意他噤聲。

季錦茂看趙向晚态度輕松,知道沒什麽大事,這才略微松了一口氣,站在一旁等着。

足足過了二十分鐘,這股風才止住。

小世界裏的畫面也有了變化。

幹淨、澄澈、簡潔。

草地、野花、大樹、雲雀随時出現、随時隐沒,季昭的世界全由他一人做主。

季昭睜開眼,往日冰冷的面龐多了一分暖意,他伸出手抱住趙向晚。

【謝謝你。】

【原來過去一切,都可以選擇遺忘。】

【現在的我,感覺好輕松。】

季錦茂就在一旁站着,趙向晚微笑着伸出右手,拍了拍他後背:“好了,好了,你爸來了,咱們吃飯吧。”

季昭松開手,直起腰,轉過頭看向季錦茂。

季錦茂第一次被兒子如此認真地凝視,一顆心提了起來,有些不知所措,手腳都不知道往哪裏放。

季昭想了想,從口袋裏掏出一個塑料紙包裝好的糖葫蘆,左手擡起父親的胳膊,右手将糖葫蘆輕輕放在他的掌心。

季昭的右手輕輕蓋在季錦茂的掌心,眼睛裏帶着笑意。

他雖然沒有說話,但那雙眼睛現在靈動而溫暖,仿佛在說:爸,給你吃。

季錦茂怔在當地,一動沒有動。

季昭攏了攏季錦茂的掌心,推了推他。

季錦茂忽然眼眶一紅,忍了半天才沒有掉下淚來。他連連點頭,緊緊捏住掌心,像得到至寶一般将糖葫蘆收好:“好!爸爸吃,爸爸吃。”

一直到入桌吃飯,季錦茂都舍不得松開手。

趙向晚在一旁看着,既開心又有點羨慕。季昭真的有個非常好的父親,季昭給他一點點陽光,季錦茂的心就無比燦爛。

季錦茂知道趙向晚剛剛開始和季昭談戀愛,還需要更多的共處時光,不敢催得太緊,并沒有把洛丹楓帶過來,親自下廚做了幾道家常菜,招呼着趙向晚落坐。

“來來來,你們這回出差辛苦了,我做了幾道菜,為你們接風洗塵。季昭的媽媽、奶奶其實也想來,不過怕你覺得不熟悉放不開,所以就被我攔下來了。改天,改天你要是有空,到家裏去坐會?”

趙向晚搖搖頭:“暫時沒空。今晚還得趕緊回學校,補上落下的功課。”

季錦茂略有些失落,不過很快就調整好了自己。

【只要向晚對季昭好,什麽時候見家長都是一樣的。她肯見我,主動給我打電話,已經是很給面子了。】

聽到季錦茂的心聲,趙向晚感覺輕松了一些。說實話,和季昭談戀愛是一回事,但見他媽媽、奶奶這類女性長輩,趙向晚很有壓力,就仿佛自己必須得融入到一個陌生的家庭。

寬闊的餐廳裝修得很有藝術感,拼花的大理石地板、三色花瓣吊燈,白色餐桌上擺放着缤紛、清新的插花。

精致的餐具,潔白的骨瓷,漂亮的擺盤,豐盛的菜式。

這一切,與趙向晚的童年生活相差太遠。

可是,這裏有季昭。

趙向晚看一眼在她身邊泰然自若坐下,動作優雅地拿起筷子的季昭。

季昭感受到趙向晚的目光,接過管家送上來的飯碗,送到她面前。

【這個米飯還不錯,香軟可口。】

季昭的手指很長,肌膚很白,不過與這雪白的骨瓷飯碗相比,還是多了些肌膚柔潤之色,四指托在碗底,大拇指扣在碗沿,與飯碗周邊鑲上的兩道金邊映照在一塊,有一種說不出來的美感。

季昭的溫柔,撫慰了趙向晚初到陌生豪華之地的不自在。

不管是哪裏,不管是貧還是富,不管是草堂茅棚還是別墅宮殿,也不過就是一餐飯而已。

趙向晚內心釋然,整個人頓時放松下來。

接過季昭遞來的飯碗,趙向晚拿起筷子扒了一口,細細嚼了嚼,眼睛亮晶晶的:“果然,很香軟。”

【對吧?我最喜歡這一款,我爸可能是發現了,所以後來都是從那裏買。聽說是北方極寒之地,稻米經過長時間的生長,糖分更加沉澱,香味更加濃郁。】

難得聽到季昭唠唠叨叨,趙向晚笑了。

看到兩小口甜甜蜜蜜的模樣,季錦茂老懷大慰,揮手示意管家退下,親自盛飯、布菜。他做生意這麽多年,當然看得出來趙向晚來到這裏有些不自在,不過好在季昭還算有眼力勁兒,把她哄得開心起來。

趙向晚擡眼看着桌上的菜,一個土豆絲餅,一個農家小炒肉,一個炕茄子,一個紅燒魚塊,一個炒空心菜,非常接地氣的菜。除了土豆絲餅複雜一點,其餘幾道菜都是湘省農家接待客人時宴席上常見的菜,也是趙向晚喜歡的幾道菜。

能夠被人記住喜好,這種感覺真的挺好。

趙向晚看着季錦茂,微笑道:“季伯伯,謝謝你準備這些菜,都是我喜歡的呢。”

季錦茂眼睛一瞪,一臉的驚喜:“唉喲,是你喜歡的嗎?其實我也不知道你喜歡吃什麽,這些都是我以前在老家的時候,我媽經常做的菜,我非常喜歡。說實話,雖說我季家廚藝自宮廷傳下來,我做過那麽多山珍海味,可是真心喜歡的,還就是我媽媽做的一些家常菜。我就是照着自己的口味來做的,難得你也喜歡,來來來,吃吧吃吧。”

嘁!這人真會說話。

雖然明知道他是在哄自己,但趙向晚臉上的笑意更深,心情更加輕松愉快,再也沒有半點不自在,就當在自己家裏一樣,高高興興地吃了起來。

吃完飯,喝了口熱茶,趙向晚這才想起秦勇兵給她和季昭發的獎金。

趙向晚從挎包裏拿出牛皮紙信封,将其中一個放到季昭手裏。

季錦茂好奇地問:“這是什麽?”

季昭打開信封,從裏面取出一疊子一百塊錢鈔票。季錦茂一看到錢,眼睛頓時就放出光芒來:“這是你們去京都賺回來的錢?”

趙向晚簡單介紹了一下案情,聽到季錦茂唏噓不已,聽說季昭的刑偵畫像得到嘉獎,這就是獎金,季錦茂開心地哈哈大笑起來:“我家季昭這麽有出息嗎?我在湘省還真沒留意這件事。”

當着趙向晚的面,季錦茂沒有叫兒子的小名“昭昭”,怕兒子不好意思。

趙向晚笑道:“您不知道,季昭一出手,把那邊的刑偵畫像師都鎮住了,京都西山區公安局的領導想要把季昭挖到那邊工作呢。”

季錦茂越聽越歡喜,一種自豪感油然而生:“原來,是我家季昭畫的畫像立了功?他們說會給你記一個二等功?季昭不是公安系統內的所以沒辦法獎勵,只能發點獎金?挺好的,挺好的,咱們不圖錢,就圖個成就感,是不是?這錢吶,你收着,以後季昭賺的錢你都收着。反正季昭也不會花錢,更不會管錢。”

趙向晚看向季昭。

季昭把錢鄭重交到趙向晚手中。

【我賺的錢,都給你。你不是說,我是你的專屬刑偵畫像師嗎?】

聽到季昭的話,趙向晚愣了一下:“我和寧清凝說的話,你都聽見了?”

季昭點點頭。

【你說的,都是對的。我以後,就是你的專屬畫像師。】

這種感覺,怎麽形容呢?

同樣一句話,自己說出來,和對方說出來,完全是不一樣的。

就像一個女孩子告訴閨蜜:他屬于我。

女孩子的男友站在她面前,将她輕輕擁在懷中,在她耳邊輕聲低語:是的,我屬于你。

感覺完全不一樣,對不對?

趙向晚此刻沒有動,也沒有說話,她的內心滿溢着幸福與歡喜。

整個人就像是泡在熱水裏,很一個毛孔、每一寸肌膚都暖暖的,一顆心晃晃悠悠,如飄在天邊的雲彩,被霞光染上絢爛的色彩。

自己一直以來缺失的、想要的,就是這一份偏愛。

是的,偏愛。

我只要你,我只屬于你。我的所有天賦,只為你展示。

季昭感受到了趙向晚的歡喜,伸出手溫柔地将她擁在懷中,讓她的頭輕輕偏在胸前,一只手慢慢撫着她的頭發,嘴角含笑,滿足無比。

季錦茂早就悄悄離開,這個私人空間裏只有季昭與趙向晚。

季昭低下頭,在趙向晚額角上印上一個吻,眼神溫柔而缱绻。

他的小世界裏天空澄澈,鳥語花香。

這個世界,只對趙向晚呈現。

趙向晚輕輕閉上眼,傾聽着他的心跳。

砰!砰!砰!

這個人,全身心屬于自己,真好。

再回到宿舍,趙向晚的嘴角一直微微上翹,眼睛裏洋溢着溫柔,這和她平日裏清冷的模樣不太一樣,引得章亞岚繞着她打圈圈,嘴裏啧啧有聲:“看來,你這回和季昭去京都辦案,感情升溫很快啊。”

趙向晚難得豪爽一回:“這個案子破了!京都公安那邊給我發了獎金,明天我請你們吃飯。”

章亞岚“喲”了一聲,眉開眼笑,“好呀好呀,獎了多少錢?”

趙向晚從信封裏取出錢來:“一千塊。”

厚厚一疊,嶄新的百元大鈔,拿在手裏發出清脆的聲響,這種感覺,真的很美妙。

武如欣不是差錢的主兒,但她還在讀書,零花錢并不多,苗慧一個月給她一百塊,比起其他同學來說已經算是很大方的了。公安大學學生在校期間都是穿制服,學校分發夏裝、秋裝、冬裝,每個月發飯菜票,吃、住不花錢,平時管理嚴格,外出要請假,因此根本沒多少花錢的機會。

一下子看到一千塊錢擺在眼前,這種沖擊感讓宿舍裏另外三個女孩都尖叫起來,沖過來搶奪着趙向晚手中的信封。

“給我看看,給我看看。”

“一千塊錢,這麽多!趙向晚你真有錢。”

“請客請客,必須請客。吃飯就算了,咱們學校也沒有什麽好吃的,你買點零食回來請我們吃就行。”

和同年齡女孩子在一起,趙向晚心情很好:“好,你們想吃什麽?哦,對了。”她想起自己從京都帶回來的土特産,站起身将挎包打開,倒出一大堆塑料包裝紙包好的糖葫蘆、茯苓餅、桃酥……

“哇哦~”女孩子們歡呼一聲,拿過一個就撕包裝紙,一邊吃一邊誇:“算你有良心,知道帶吃的回來。”

對于讀書的年輕女孩子而言,和閨蜜在一起,有零食吃,就是最快樂的時刻。

聽趙向晚說完聞倩語案件的偵破過程,寝室裏有片刻沉默。

過了一陣,章亞岚率先開口,打破了沉默:“唉,聞倩語好可憐。以後咱們上晚自習一定要小心點。”

武如欣白了她一眼:“姐姐,咋個這裏是公安大學,別說外人進不來,就算進來了,難道我們會怕?”

她比劃了一下拳腳,得意洋洋地說:“咱這拳腳功夫,可不是白練的!”

孟安南一直沒有說話,這讓武如欣有些奇怪,看了她一眼:“喂,你怎麽了?”

孟安南說:“不知道怎麽,就覺得當女人好難。”

這話一說,大家你看看我、我看看你,同時嘆了一口氣。

“那怎麽辦?”

“性別我們也沒辦法選擇。”

“是啊,孟安南,你說我們能怎麽辦?”

孟安南愁眉苦臉地說:“我也不知道怎麽辦。我現在頭痛的,是表姐遇到一件煩心事,你們幫我出出主意。”

孟安南的表姐龔安怡,在星市一家幼兒園當老師,兩人的母親是親姐妹,從小一起長大,因此關系很好,每周都會和孟安南打電話聊天,寒暑假兩人就膩歪在一起。

章亞岚撕開塑料包裝紙,往孟安南嘴裏塞了個小小糖葫蘆:“別擔心,先吃點甜的。書上說,吃甜食會讓我們心情愉快。有什麽煩心事,慢慢說,我們聽着。”

孟安南是個假小子,短頭發、直脾氣,可是她表姐龔安怡卻是個溫婉秀氣的江南美人。龔安怡聲音甜美,笑容溫柔,也許是和小朋友在一起的時候比較多,和人說話的時候總是習慣鼓勵與表揚。

趙向晚曾經在學校門口見過龔安怡,對她印象不錯。或許是因為剛剛經歷過聞倩語被殺案,聽到孟安南一說煩心事,便下意識地有些緊張,擡眸看向孟安南。

孟安南嘴裏含着糖葫蘆,說話便有些含含糊糊起來,不過這并不妨礙她表述清楚。

“我表姐今年二十三歲,幼師畢業之後順利分配到公辦幼兒園當老師,她性格溫和,未語先笑,會講故事會跳舞,特別招孩子們喜歡。我表姐性格單純,一直沒有談過男朋友,雖然也有人追求,但她都沒看中,一心要找個能力強、性格好、長得俊的完美男人。”

章亞岚、武如欣正是對愛情十分向往的年齡段,一聽到孟安南的講述就知道和情感有關,立刻來了興趣,拉着孟安南坐在書桌前,圍站在她身邊,着急地問:“後來呢?你表姐談朋友了沒?”

趙向晚聽到這裏,終于放下心來,原來是感情問題,那還好。她坐下來給自己倒了一杯水,慢慢喝着。

孟安南繼續往下說。

“我表姐對待感情的方式非常認真,她一直覺得與其談了一個又一個,不如認認真真談一個,然後攜手進入婚姻,一生一世一雙人。”

章亞岚重重點頭:“你表姐是對的。”

“先前也有人追求、有人介紹,但我表姐都覺得差了點意思。長相俊的吧,性格 總有點傲氣;能力強的吧,又生得不夠俊俏,總之一句話,難得三樣都好,她也就沒有繼續,只簡單了解之後就禮貌地斷了交往。”

聽到這裏,武如欣忍不住發表意見:“男人嘛,要那麽俊俏做什麽?又不是挑電影明星。我覺得能力強、性格好,身體結實,不就行了?”

孟安南搖頭嘆氣:“沒辦法,我表姐就是喜歡俊俏小生。她看西游記看入了迷,就喜歡唐僧那樣子的,一心要找個那樣的男人,将來生個粉嫩嫩的寶寶。”

武如欣實在不能理解這樣審美:“唐僧?唉呀,太娘了,不行不行,我不喜歡。”

章亞岚一把捂住武如欣的嘴,沖孟安南說:“你繼續,別理她。她就喜歡高大威猛、能征善戰型的勇士。”

一個宿舍混久了,大家的性格都比較熟悉,相處也随意放肆起來。

武如欣經歷過家庭變故之後,性格沒那麽傲了,被章亞岚捂住嘴不怒反笑,笑得前仰後合,使勁掰她的手,嘴裏發出“唔唔唔——”地聲音。

好不容易讓章亞岚松開手,武如欣笑得喘不上氣:“好了好了,我不打岔,孟安南你趕緊說吧。”

孟安南白了她一眼:“你要是再亂講話,我就只說給她倆聽,憋死你。”

武如欣連連點頭,用手在嘴邊比劃了一個“拉拉鏈”姿勢,表示自己保證不再說話,讓孟安南繼續講她表姐遇到的煩心事。

孟安南說:“九月份吧,有人給我表姐介紹了一個對象,倒是真的非常符合我表姐的要求。在一家雜志社當編輯,長相白淨俊秀,性格溫和,談吐文雅大方,一看就是那種文秀書生,我表姐一見到他,特別滿意,兩人開始交往。”

武如欣不敢說話,章亞岚問了一句:“後來呢?”

孟安南的眉毛皺了起來:“我表姐先前只要一談起她對象就眉飛色舞,把他誇上了天,什麽他文采特別好,很受主編器重;什麽他說話很有禮貌,兩人一起出去吃飯的時候,不管遇到誰都會笑臉相迎,請、您這樣的詞語使用頻率很高;什麽他特別愛幹淨,穿的襪子都是雪白的,身上的氣味很好聞,一看就很有教養。”

她停頓了一下,嘆了一口氣:“可是昨天她跟我打電話,說話有些支支吾吾,好像遇到了什麽為難事。我問她這是怎麽了,她雲山霧罩地說了半天,最後逼急了才說她對象太完美,她現在有種不真實的感覺。對方提出和她見家長、商議結婚的事,她覺得太快了,有些猶豫。”

章亞岚說:“是不是婚姻恐懼症啊?有些女孩子因為太渴望愛情與婚姻,反而在即将進入婚姻的時候産生莫名的恐慌感。”

Meng Annan shook his head: "I don't think so. My cousin looks like a love-minded person on the surface, but she is actually quite calm. She set three conditions before, and she has met five or six of them before and after. She would withdraw in time if she was not satisfied. Now this one is pursuing her very seriously, and there is nothing wrong with him. Logically, she should be very happy. But I think her reaction now is not right."

Zhang Yalan was a little confused: "He meets your cousin's standards and likes your cousin. He proposed to her after dating for only one month. So he must be very satisfied with your cousin. Why does it feel unreal? Isn't perfection good? Doesn't your cousin want to find a perfect boyfriend? Why is she hesitant now that he's perfect?"

Meng Annan grabbed a handful of short hair and pulled the bangs on his forehead up, making him look like a little hedgehog, which made Wu Ruxin laugh.

Meng Annan said, "Our school is too strict. We are not allowed to go out normally. I have always wanted to meet this man to help my cousin, but I haven't found a chance."

Hearing this, Zhao Xiangwan spoke up: "I suggest you meet this man as soon as possible."


Recommendation
