Chapter 243： The Catcher in the Rye

The sunshine in Wucheng was slightly warm, and it lightly fell on the man's body, adding a sense of haziness. He was supposed to be a heart-warming person, but what he said was so viciously poking at the soft heart.

I took a deep breath and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Gu Tingchen's low laughter came over the phone, "Sheng'er, we haven't seen each other for half a year. I have been in the U.S. for treatment for the past half year. Now I am under control before I dare to return to China. Have you ever thought of me?"

Gu Tingchen’s mental instability is caused by Ye Wan. I know that he has been struggling with another personality, and I also understand from the bottom of my heart that his personality mistakes are not counted as healthy for him!

But understanding belongs to understanding, I have never been able to forgive.

To him, I will never put down my defenses in my life.

I said perfunctorily: "Oh, then congratulations."

From my position, I can see the warm smile on Gu Tingchen’s face, like the big boy next door. He asked inch by inch on the phone, "Sheng'er, can I come and see you?"

His voice is cautious, so he makes me feel sad, after all, he is the man I ever loved the most.

I used to be certain that he is my life.

Even he can save my life for me.

This kind of love is also reassuring and enviable.

But when did we get to where we are now?

There are too many compelling things in life.

He was forced to lose.

He wanted to save me, and I left him.

left him decisively.

I sighed, concealed my helplessness towards the world, sighed and said, "Tingchen, I will leave for Tongcheng later."

I called him Tingchen to forgive his past.

also let go of the self.

is a good end to this love.

Seeing me calling his name calmly, Gu Tingchen's low and deep laughter came through the phone, and his mood was very happy.

"Sheng'er, thank you."

He understands what I mean.

"Well, I'm going to hang up."

He called me anxiously, "Sheng'er."

I squeezed my phone and responded, "Huh?"

He asked softly: "Did you ever love me?"

He still can’t believe the fact that I and Xi Zhan are in love together, no, Xi Zhan and I have parted ways!

I replied: "I have loved, that's all."

Once loved, it has nothing to do in the future.

I actively hung up the call and asked Jing Yi to prepare to go back to the city. I didn't plan to go back to Tongcheng, just to coax him.

Just when I returned to the city to talk about Wen, I sent me the two rings from Xi’s family. I saw the engagement ring on the **** when I was about to wear it.

Xi Zhan put it on me personally.

There is no proposal, just a ring.

But even this made me happy at the beginning.

I took it down and threw it to Tan Wen, "Throw it."

Talking about Wen Cuo stunned, "But Patriarch, this is..."

I interrupted him and said, "Throw it away."

It doesn’t make sense to keep things from the past.

Tan Wen took the ring and put it back and gave me a book. He explained: "This is the book that Mr. Xi left in the Wushan Villa. Mr. Xi Wei asked me to bring it to you. He said it is worth seeing by the owner. "

I look at the title of the book in Xiang Tan Wen's hands--

"The Catcher in the Rye"

This book looks at some ages.

I took it and opened the first page and saw Xi Zhan Xingyun Liushui’s signature, and the time is also marked below, the beginning of the 20th century.

This book was a book he had when he was young.

There was also a label in the middle of the book. I didn't go to read it again, but threw it to Jing Yi, "Put it in the apartment."

I don’t know why Xi Wei gave me this book. Since he said I’m worth reading, I’ll look through it when I have time.

Jing Yi accompanied me back to Shi’s villa. Not only my parents were there, but Shi Cheng was also there. My mother explained that he went home for the New Year.

He finally admitted that Shijia is his home.

My dad was surprised to see me go home, "Why did you suddenly arrive in Wucheng? There are still three days left for your 25th birthday. It is New Year's Eve. How are you going to spend it? Did Xi Zhan tell you to celebrate your birthday?"

In the eyes of my parents, Xi Zhan is a prospective son-in-law and my future husband. He needs to do everything about me personally.

Thinking of the cruelty of men that day, I felt a pain in my heart and a faint cramp in my stomach. I lied and said, "Well, I plan to spend the New Year in Finland, and I will not be able to spend the New Year with you."

I don’t want them to know what happened between me and Xi Zhan, so I let them spend a good year with peace of mind.

My mother asked uneasyly: "Will you go home in the next year?"

My mother will be worried when I go home alone in the next year, but Xi Zhan's side... I can't make her a prospective son-in-law now.

Then she will worry me more.

I lied and said, "I'm very busy lately. There are a lot of things about the Xi family. I will come home to visit you when I'm done."

Sitting on the sofa, Shi Cheng suddenly asked, "When will you get married? When will I plan to save money for you!"

When he asked, my parents all looked at me.

I tried hard to hold on to the scene and said, "Maybe next year, it depends on whether we are busy or not. Xi Zhan has always been very busy."

After dealing with all the problems, my parents let me go. I was relieved and sat next to Shi Cheng and asked, "How are you doing?"

The lack of enthusiasm answer: "As usual."

As usual, it must be unsatisfactory.

I did not ask him about the matter with Song Yiran again, but gave him a check, "This is a little New Year's heart for my parents. You will help me pass it to them when I leave."

Shicheng nodded and took it. My stomach hurts more and more and I can’t keep it here. I got up and smiled reluctantly at the busy parents in the kitchen: “Mom, I’m in a hurry to leave.”

My mother hurriedly came out to care and asked: "What is so anxious, there is no time to eat a meal, Sheng'er will leave after eating."

I endured the pain in my body and said, "It's an urgent matter in the company. I'm leaving first, Mom, I will visit you when I have time in the next year."

I hurriedly left the Shijia villa. As soon as I got to the side of the car, I softened down. Jing Yi quickly supported me, "Patriarch."

I ordered hard: "Help me in."

I don’t want my parents to see me like this.

I always carry things on my own.

Jing Yi helped me into the car. I asked him for painkillers. It took a long time to relieve him. I reached out and wiped the sweat on my forehead, and laughed softly: "This kind of pain is better than death."

Tan Wen said that my uterus was slightly injured.

And that kick was kicked by Xi Zhan.

I know he didn't mean it.

He didn't know that the person in the arena was me.

But he actually stabbed that knife.

I turned my eyes to see the book Tan Wen brought me, and I picked it up and pulled out the bookmark.

has two lines written on it.

"I have never loved anyone before. You are the first one. I am afraid that I do not do well, so that you feel that love is nothing but that."
