    "Warmly welcome everyone to the 10th Anniversary Party of Baidi Advertising Company. In the past ten years, with the joint efforts of everyone"

    I stood alone in the corner with my hands in my trouser pockets and looked around at the guests in front of me.  There are many familiar faces in it, and there are even people who have been close to my skin.  Whether it is the beautifully dressed women on the stage or other people, they have all become decorations here. In my eyes, there is no one else except a woman.

    During the preparation of the reception, I already knew that Wang Dan complained that Lin Manjing didn't show face and only sent representatives to attend.  Why doesn't she come?  Their company is well-known in the city's advertising industry, so is she afraid of me?  Or has it already come, Wang Dan is playing tricks on purpose?

    I stared intently at the beautiful profile of the little mouse in my hand.  She turned her head sensitively, landed on my face accurately at the first glance, and then avoided it immediately, as if there was a poison hidden in my body, and even a single glance would be fatal.  After she stayed for a while to listen to the speech on the stage, she was impatient like a monkey whose butt was scalded.  She and the guests around her saluted and apologized and went out to the deck.  I am more and more admiring of my brilliance. I used a boat to get this woman, and I couldn't escape even if I wanted to.

    I walked out from the other side of the hatch, and Lin Manjing had already run to the bow.  The wind at night was so strong that her dress was blown up, but she still stood firmly, like a fallen fairy resisting God's tricks.

    "Aren't you cold?" I approached her.  She didn't even look at it, she turned to the other side and walked away.

    I quickly held down her hand that was still on the railing, and nailed it firmly to the railing to prevent her from struggling.

    "What do you want?" The anger in her eyes was as bright red as her clothes, and her hands were as hot.

    "How long has it been since I saw you so fierce? You are still so beautiful." I said angrily, but I actually remember this time in my heart more clearly than anyone else.

    "Let go of me, or I'll call someone." She struggled, and her slender high-heeled shoes fell to my side unsteadily, and I blocked her in the narrow space between her and the railing.

    "If you want the people in the boat to see it, then call it good."

    "You're such a scoundrel."

    "It's the first time I've heard someone scold me like that."

    "I've given you what you want. You promised to let me go." She opened her watery eyes and begged weakly, her eyes swallowing people like a whirlpool.  I swallowed a mouthful of water and smiled lightly.

    "We are not that strange. I haven't seen you for many years. Can't we chat like old classmates?" My tone was natural and peaceful, no longer sharp and rascal.  She silently looked at the dark sea in the distance, as if falling into the vortex of memories.

    "I heard that you were admitted to university." Her voice was hoarse, not as crisp as usual.

    "Well. I was admitted to a third-rate university." I mocked.

    "I'm sorry! That's all I can say. I want to make it up to you, but" She didn't continue, and lowered her head slightly.

    "You don't owe me, I deserve it."

    "No!" She interrupted me, "Both of us are at fault, and you cannot bear it alone."

    I didn't expect her to admit it so frankly, but it's useless for her to deny it. This woman is really smart. She knows how to win sympathy first.

    "I didn't take it, although I wanted to" She looked up at me strangely.

    Reluctantly, I let go of the confinement, no longer disturbed by her breath.

    I leaned against the railing and held it hard, my nails dug into the wooden handrail, and my ten fingers felt a piercing pain.

    "My father committed suicide in the river connected to the sea; my mother also wanted to commit suicide. I didn't want to accept the sad punishment in this world alone, so I saved her. She spent eight years with me madly"

    "You? How come?" Lin Manjing couldn't believe it.

    "My mother and I went to the morgue to see my father. He had been soaked in the river for too long, and his whole body was severely swollen. My mother was afraid that he would be cold, so she cried and clamored to hug him and give him warmth; I looked at his body.  Corpse, afraid to approach"

    "Stop it. Please, stop it." She covered her ears and shook her head like crazy, refusing to listen any more.

    I pulled her hand away and gritted my teeth in her ear: "Why didn't you say it? Why? Are you afraid? Do you know how scared I was? I was standing next to that corpse! I can smell the disinfectant and can't cover it  The smell of rotting corpses. It was my father, he left me the last"

    "No" She broke away from me with strength from nowhere, and the force of the recoil caused her to fall to the ground.

    The howling sea breeze outside and the fast-paced music in the warehouse covered our voices, those traps?Passionate people have long forgotten us.  She sat there weakly, with her head bowed, tears dripping down her red skirt.

    I took a deep breath, squatted down, and gently held her face, two black tears were clearly visible.  I slowly wiped away the tears, and she kept sobbing.

    "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I really don't know, I don't know"

    "Why did you do that?" I forced to ask the mystery that had been buried in my heart for eight years.

    She was silent.

    "Why?" I throated loudly, she was startled and burst into tears.

    She choked up and said, "It's all meit's meI know I can't get into the university and I'm anxious. When I registered for the graduation party at the Youth League Committee, I heard that the school has the eligibility for recommendation, but the condition of recommendation must be the student with the best grades.  You have the qualifications, so"

    I squeezed her jaw tightly, I really wanted to crush her to death.  The horror in her eyes slowly expanded, I let go suddenly, slapped her hard and stood up.

    She fell to the ground like a ravaged flower, prostrate and continued to cry.

    "You really make me sick." I didn't want to stay by her side for a moment, fearing that I would lose control and push this shameless woman into the sea.  I entered the cabin, and the people inside were scattered in circles chatting.  I walked up to Wang Dan as if nothing had happened, and whispered in her ear: "You take care of Lin Manjing on the deck, she is not feeling well."

    With a shake of her body, she bid farewell to the people around her and moved outside.  My appearance gathered some acquaintances on the field, and everyone began to laugh and laugh.  I looked back at the back of Wang Dan who disappeared at the door, and there was no smile in my eyes.  I took the wine offered by others and drank it down while chatting and laughing. The mellow wine was slightly bitter in my mouth.

    I drank all the client toasts in one gulp, and the fire in my chest made me feel alive.  Lin Manjing personally told me that the conspiracy back then was meaningless except to make me suffer more, but I pressed on without hesitation, as if pushing myself into a boiling oil pan again.

    When my consciousness began to blur, I used my past experience to get rid of the crowd and quietly left the main venue and walked to the deck. The sea breeze did not dispel the drunkenness, but made the alcohol spread faster in my heart;  Place to hide and lick his wounds.

    I went to the lower deck. This cruise ship is not big, it only has two floors.  I found the door of what appeared to be a room and pushed in.

    "Ah!" My eyes were blurred and I saw a pair of men and women rolling on the bed in disheveled clothes.  I broke in suddenly and attracted a woman's screams.

    "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" I kept nodding my drowsy head, and caught a glimpse of Wang Dan's coat at my feet.  I laughed coldly, slammed the door hard and went out.  Everyone in this world no longer knows what to pursue and live; the poor have to suffer humiliation for food and clothing, that is just the instinct of animals;  Why is there no clean place in this world for me to lie down, so that I, who is already so dirty that I loathe myself, can feel pure?  I poured the wine I picked up from the cabin.  Alcohol is such a good thing, it can take people out of reality.  I don't want to see the weirdness of this world anymore, I don't want to see Lin Manjing, and I don't want to see myself.  I finally found a place to put the sundries, the floor was full of oil stains and a strong musty smell.  But it's a clean hideaway in my eyes, I don't care about the expensive suits, I sit on the floor, drink the last sip of wine, and lie down.

    I closed my eyes, teardrops printed on the red dress, and the scattered lens appeared in my mind, my tears slid down the corners of my eyes, and I fell asleep in pain (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
