Fang Chengyin watched Kong Wenjie hurried out of the kitchen and knew that he must be feeling bad, so she hurriedly chased after him. Following Kong Wenjie, she silently followed him towards the gate. At this time, every family was having a reunion dinner at home, and there was silence everywhere. Except for the "crunching" sound of two people stepping on the snow, no other sound could be heard.
"You go back first, I'll take a breath and I'll go in later." Kong Wenjie turned around and said to Cheng Yin.
"Wenjie, let me stay with you." In the darkness, Fang Chengyin couldn't see Kong Wenjie's face clearly, but she could hear that Kong Wenjie's voice was hoarse. After knowing him for so long, it was the first time she knew that a tough guy like Kong Wenjie could also shed tears. Her heart ached so much that she couldn't bear it.
"No, I'll just stand there for a while." Kong Wenjie frowned as he watched her rush out without even wearing warm sleeves. He reached out and held Fang Chengyin's hand, saying in a deep voice, "Be good, go back first."
"Wenjie, I'm not cold," Fang Chengyin shook her head, tilted her head and blinked at Kong Wenjie, smiling and saying, "Besides, don't I have a ready-made hand warmer like you?"
Kong Wenjie looked at the face so close to him and could no longer say no. Then he held Fang Chengyin's hand and walked slowly on the snow.
"Cheng Yin, the person I am most grateful to in my life is my brother," Kong Wenjie suddenly said after a while, "If it weren't for my brother, I would never have been able to leave my hometown. Maybe I would still be like an ordinary farmer, barely making a living by digging in the soil. It was my brother who brought me out of my hometown. It was him who taught me martial arts and took me into the Imperial Guards. At that time, I really trained hard in the coldest and hottest days of winter. I hated him and hated that he was too strict with me. When he got angry, he could break a stick as thick as a thumb." Kong Wenjie paused here. He looked at the cold crescent moon in the sky, exhaled silently, and then said, "I hate him and I am afraid of him, but I respect and love him in my heart. I have long forgotten what my father looks like, but to me, my brother is my father..."
Having said this, Kong Wenjie suddenly couldn't go on. His body trembled violently, and then he suddenly let go of Fang Chengyin's hand and covered his face. He tried hard to control himself from making any sound, but the suppressed crying still came out.
Fang Chengyin looked at the man crying in the moonlight in shock. She felt that the hoarse cries were like steel knives stabbing her body. She hurriedly reached out to hug the man and kept comforting him, "Wen Jie, don't cry. Let's live a good life in the future and don't let brother worry. We will respect and be filial to brother..."
"No, no, you don't know..." Kong Wenjie cried even harder, his whole body trembling, his voice blurred, "I, I'm sorry for my brother..."
"What did you say?" Fang Chengyin didn't hear clearly, so she took out a handkerchief and wiped Kong Wenjie's tears distressedly, saying softly, "Wenjie, no matter how much suffering there was in the past, it's all over now. From now on, our lives, and your brother's lives, will only get better and better. Wenjie, don't cry."
Through tearful eyes, Kong Wenjie looked at the girl's eyes which were red with heartache. Then he thought of Kong Wenmin kneeling in front of Fang Zuotang just now, and he felt even more uncomfortable.
Yes, he was indeed sorry for Kong Wenmin. If it was Kong Wenmin who accompanied Fang Chengyin to Changbai Mountain for hunting, this might have been a good day for both of them. The "Uncle Fang" in Kong Wenmin's mouth would probably have to be changed to "Father-in-law". But it happened that he was the one who accompanied Fang Chengyin to Changbai Mountain...
He was the one who stole his brother's favorite thing!
He stole the good day that should have belonged to his brother!
How can there be such a messed up person?
Why didn't his brother hate him at all?
