MTL - Dear Mr. Lu-Chapter 60
After getting off the plane, he directly got into the car and rushed back all the way as fast as he could. Before dark, Luo Wencheng came to this three-story villa again.
He walked in quickly, the man he hadn't seen for four months hadn't changed much, but the cat in his arms had changed a lot.
The originally shiny and smooth hair fell off in sevens and eights, exposing a piece of skin here and there, and the originally fat body shrank, as if only a skeleton and a little flesh remained.
Luo Wencheng was stunned.
He didn't even bother to look at Lu Chong, his attention was all on the big cat, and when Lu Chong walked towards him, he naturally took the cat from his hand.
"Spare ribs, I'm back with ribs." Holding her in her hands was full of bony feeling, light and fluffy, and the whole cat squinted weakly and tiredly, without any energy.
Luo Wencheng remembered that when he first came here, this big cat jumped down from the stairs towards him, hugging his face fiercely, circling around him lively and active, dragging its fat belly lazily. Very flexible, the tears fell down uncontrollably.
He raised his arms, rubbed his face against the big cat's face, and said in a trembling voice: "Little Ribs, open your eyes to see who is back, aren't you making a fuss to see me?"
The big cat raised its eyelids, leaned forward and licked Luo Wencheng's chin: "Meow..."
"Sparse ribs." Luo Wencheng kissed it.
"Meow..." the big cat licked back
"Ribs."
"mum…"
Lu Chong just watched a person and a cat kiss each other, and warmth gradually appeared in the bottom of his eyes.
One person and one cat are intimate enough. Sitting down on the sofa, Luo Wencheng hugged the cat and asked, "How long have the ribs been like this?"
"It's been about half a month." Lu Chong watched the intimacy pass, closed his eyes again in Luo Wencheng's arms, and gasped for breath, "At first, it just lost its hair and didn't like to move. It lost its appetite, but it suddenly became active yesterday. Get up, always go around your room, sniffing and screaming, looking for you everywhere, and still won't let anyone take it away."
Luo Wencheng's eye sockets were a little red again, and he touched the big cat cautiously: "Is there no other way?"
Lu Chong looked at the cat and said in a low voice, "Its time has come."
Luo Wencheng lowered his head and buried his face, which could not maintain his expression, in the sparse cat fur.
He thought he was calm enough to face death without changing his face, but at this moment, because a cat was about to leave, he still felt an uncontrollable heartache.
Luo Wencheng was almost inseparable from Ribs, no matter where he went or what he was doing, he hugged the cat, and this big cat seemed to have completely forgotten its owner, and was particularly tired of Luo Wencheng, and would meow when he was away for a long time.
This day, I ate a lot of ribs for dinner, slept next to Luo Wencheng at night, and was very peaceful all night, and even lay in Luo Wencheng's arms in good spirits the next day, scratched him with cat's claws, and played with him.
However, in the afternoon, its spirit quickly withered down.
The sun was quite good at that time, and Luo Wencheng sat on the carpet in the backyard with his ribs in his arms. The sun shone brightly on them, and he felt that the cat, which was active just now, gradually became less and less active in his arms, and his limbs became weaker. It softens little by little.
Luo Wencheng realized something, and met Lu Chong's eyes.
No need to say anything, the two saw the same emotion in each other's eyes, Lu Chong stretched out his hand, gently placed it on top of the big cat's head, and rubbed his thumb lightly.
"Mi..." Ribs stretched out a front paw, and Lu Chong held it in his hand, "Hey, sleep peacefully."
The big cat opened its eyes wearily and slowly, looked at Lu Chong, those bright yellow round eyes were full of nostalgia, then rubbed its face in Luo Wencheng's arms, and slowly closed its eyes.
The cat's tail hung down, and the body of the ribs was in the hands of the two, losing temperature a little bit.
Luo Wencheng raised his head, his eyes were red, looking at the splendid flowers and plants in the courtyard and the warm sunset, he suddenly felt an inexplicable fear.
Not because of death, but because of parting.
The ribs' body was quickly cremated. Lu Chong did not choose to bury it in the backyard of the villa, but brought the ashes to the amusement park that was under construction.
He told Luo Wencheng that the ribs were picked up here.
"When I first picked it up, it was only the size of a palm. It was a newborn kitten abandoned by its mother cat. It seemed that it had grown to such a big size in the blink of an eye." He was talking about ribs for so many years. Embarrassing thing, "It is like a child to me, and it has only been with me for so many years."
Luo Wencheng looked at his slightly red eyes, it was the first time he saw Lu Chong like this, his nostalgia, his reluctance, his melancholy, and his suppressed deep sadness all made him look very divided at this moment. The outside is fragile and soft.
He forced himself to look away, and if he continued to look, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but hug him.
"Actually, you should be happy for him. He has lived for nearly seventeen years, longer than most cats. He has been noisy and happy all his life. He only felt pain in the last half month. It's already good, isn't it? And it has a master that you love so much, it has received the best care and love from you, it is with you, and you are with it at the same time, it has no regrets."
Luo Wencheng looked at the small soil bag where the ashes of the ribs were buried. It was between two trees, and it was accompanied by the amusement park. It would be very lively here, and you would not feel lonely. At the same time, no one could disturb the sleeping bird. Cat.
He said softly: "So sir, don't feel sorry. Parting is always inevitable. What we can do is to grasp every day before parting. After parting, with blessings and gratitude, miss you occasionally It's good to have a look at the other party."
Lu Chong turned his head to stare at Luo Wencheng, and asked slowly, "You're leaving too, aren't you?"
Luo Wencheng smiled and didn't go to see Lu Chong: "I've already left, but this time I'm going abroad, I don't plan to come back again, I want to walk around, have a look, and live in places I like A while ago, maybe I will meet someone who likes me and I also like, then I may stay for him, and then live my life peacefully and happily.”
Lu Chong suddenly reached out to wipe away the tears rolling down from his eyes.
Only then did Luo Wencheng realize that he was crying: "I'm really..." He lowered his head and wiped away his tears, then turned his face to look at the rolling hills and the vast sky in the distance, and smiled, "At that time, I wouldn't think of Mr. If you are happy or unhappy, you will not contact your husband again, and you will not ask for blessings on your birthday, and you don’t have to miss me, and don’t send people to follow me, and don’t know my whereabouts, otherwise I know that my husband has always cared about me. , I will go away uneasy."
The more he talked, the more he wanted to control his emotions, the more tears poured down and wiped more and more. He stopped dumbfounded: "Really... I am really, why am I like a girl?"
Before he could finish speaking, he was hugged into a hug by a pair of arms.
Luo Wencheng stood still in a daze.
He looked down at their feet touching each other.
He suddenly said: "Lu Chong, I really like you."
He felt the arms holding him stiffen, and then began to loosen.
He raised his head and looked at the man who was close at hand. He was obviously so within reach.
He really didn't want to leave if he could.
"So I want to ask you one last time, is it really okay?"
Lu Chong looked down at his amber eyes, which were almost transparently illuminated by the slanting sunlight. In the distance, there was the clanging sound of work in the amusement park, and the noise of trucks transporting various building materials. It sounds so far away, only the young man standing in front of him clearly and dazzlingly.
His heartbeat seemed to be very slow at this moment, then he closed his eyes, lowered his arms, and took a step back: "Sorry, Wen Cheng."
Luo Wencheng looked at him fixedly, and smiled softly for a long time: "It's okay."
I didn't expect to get the answer I wanted, but... I'm not reconciled.
do you know? I really really want to live for you.
With you, live on.
He laughed again, turned around, took two steps and turned back: "You know what? I have a secret, a big, big secret, but I only tell people who love me the most, and only those who love me."
Lu Chong looked at him, his face seemed a little pale, he said slowly: "There will be."
"Right, you also think the same way, how can someone as excellent as me not be able to find such a person?" He said with a bit of arrogance and self-satisfaction, "If you don't like me, naturally more people will like me Me, that's fine, don't really make life and death difficult." He looked at the time: "I should go, there are a bunch of people waiting for me in the provincial capital."
Lu Chong also smiled: "I'll see you off."
"Okay." Luo Wencheng waved his hand at the little soil ball over there, "Spare ribs, my brother is gone, I will come back to see you next time I have a chance! But it may be ten or eight years or even longer, don't miss me too much Oh!"
There was a car parked by the side of the road. This time, Lu Chong drove here to bury the ashes of ribs, and now he also wants to send Luo Wencheng to the airport in person.
Luo Wencheng sat on the passenger seat, resting his chin and sighing in regret: "I forgot to take the driver's license test this year, otherwise I would be able to be a driver for my husband."
After a while, he said: "But this is the second time for me to be a driver, sir. I guess this is the kind of treatment that most people don't even think about, right?"
When it was over, he said, "I just saw that the online ticket is gone, sir, can you really get me a ticket?"
The twittering didn't stop.
Lu Chongping kept silent while driving the car.
He was a little absent-minded at first, but the voice in his ear kept talking, and it gradually awakened some memories in him.
It was also long-winded and self-talking, it was also at the time of parting, and it was also in the car. Lu Chong recalled in a trance, the feeling of deja vu, the hazy intuition...some dozen or so Something that I have been unable to figure out for years seems to be hit by lightning, and a certain nerve suddenly bounces.
Lu Chong stepped on the brake.
Luo Wencheng rushed forward due to inertia, and looked at Lu Chong in astonishment: "What's wrong?"
Lu Chong's expression seemed to be more shocked than him, that kind of horror, that kind of disbelief, he looked at Luo Wencheng with a completely incomprehensible look.
Luo Wencheng was at a loss and terrified when he saw him.
"gentlemen?"
Lu Chong grabbed Luo Wencheng's wrist with an almost ferocious expression: "You—"
"boom!"
The car was hit hard, the whole car jumped and slid a few meters away, and the two fell forward at the same time.
Lu Chong looked behind the car, his expression changed suddenly, and he immediately stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel.
Luo Wencheng accidentally kowtowed his head, and was dazed for two seconds. He struggled to wake up, and saw a huge and hideous truck head crashing from behind Lu Chong's side.
However, their car was hit into the mud on the side of the road by the collision just now, the tires got stuck in a pothole, and the whole car was turned upside down. No matter how good the performance of the car was, it couldn't be driven out for a while.
There was another "bang", and the truck hit the black car again. There was a **** next to it, and there was a large wasteland beyond. From a distance, the black car could be seen flying out of the truck like a toy. It also rolled several times in the air.
And the truck also fell down because of its excessive speed, and the steel that was full of the truck was dumped out.
Most of it ended up hitting the sedan.
For Luo Wencheng, he saw the ground moving away and then approaching again. For a very long time, his field of vision was full of blue sky.
Then he was pressed down by an embrace, and he couldn't see anything.
There are only endless roaring crashing sounds in my ears.
He couldn't feel the shaking and turning of his body, and he couldn't feel the slightest pain. In the end, even the deafening impact was far away.
He could only feel the hot blood on the side of his cheek that seemed to be drowning him.
