Red makeup against the world

Chapter 391 Rejection
Xu Wenyu didn't immediately agree. Although he liked the elder brother of the Sun family in front of him, he could feel that his elder brother didn't want to see him.

He tightened his grip on his elder brother's hand, and looked at Xu Wenmin with big clear eyes, which were full of pleading expressions.

Sun Zhitao stood up and said, "Even if we can't be relatives, Zhitao still hopes to become friends with eldest brother."

He talked all the way to this point, Xu Wenmin looked at Xu Wenyu who was pleading, and thought, always running away is not the way, why not fulfill his brother's wish, and listen to what he has to say.

Sun Zhitao came prepared, he had already booked a box on the second floor of the tea shop, just to have a quiet talk with Xu Wenmin.

Several people went upstairs, Sun Zhitao ordered Mo Zhu to buy the windmill that Xu Wenyu wanted, and led Xu Wenmin into the room himself.

Xu Wenyu seldom came to the tea shop, so he looked around curiously.Sun Zhitao took out a Nine Links, and he quietly played with it.

After Xiaoer served tea and snacks, Xu Wenyu said, "If you have anything to say, you might as well just say it."

Sun Zhitao smiled wryly, and said: "I know this, the Sun family is sorry for the Xu family. However, I really can't forget Wanzhen, and I hope my elder brother will make it happen."

Although he came to visit before, Mrs. Xu promised to wait for him to pass the examination.

But in his heart, he was really not at ease, and he hoped to have a certain letter.It's best to see Xu Wanzhen, if not, I have no choice but to see Xu Wenmin.

Xu Wenmin pondered for a moment, and the scene of discussing her sister's marriage in the grandmother's room that day emerged.The girl meant very clearly that she didn't want to marry him again.

But, how should I say this?Even his great-grandfather wrote to him, praising Sun Zhitao for his solid academic foundation and bright career.I also discussed it in detail that day, and I didn't refuse in person, but I was afraid that it would affect his achievement in the exam, and the Xu family would be a sinner in vain.

Sun Zhitao's mind was clear, seeing Xu Wenmin's distressed face, he said, "Brother, if you have something to say, you might as well speak it out, I can bear it."

Looking at him, Xu Wenmin suddenly couldn't bear it.In other words, during those years in Suzhou, the two families also came and went frequently.Now, it was his father who made the decision, but he had to bear the final result, how unfair it was to him!
Sighing, he eased his expression, and said, "Zhitao, I am three years older than you, and I have something to say, as a big brother who watched you grow up, I would like to advise you."

Hearing this, Sun Zhitao had an ominous premonition.But what he wants is the truth, no matter what the result is, he can accept it.

Gathering his mind, he said, "Brother, please tell me."

Xu Wenmin said euphemistically: "Zhitao, there is a saying called 'Ten years of cultivation can cross the same boat, and a hundred years of cultivation can lead to sleeping together'. It takes 100 years of cultivation for the two families to get married. In the old year, the Sun family retired. Let's not care whether it is right or wrong, but fate cannot afford such squandering."

Sun Zhitao did not give up and asked: "Can't we continue the relationship?"

Xu Wenmin shook his head slowly, and said: "Things are different and people are different. Time changes and things change. I'm afraid I can't force it."

Hearing such an answer, Sun Zhitao's handsome face dimmed, and even his eyes lost their luster.

Xu Wenmin waited quietly, waiting for him to digest the news slowly, without any urging.

The air in the private room was stagnant, one person was sad and the other was waiting, only the crisp sound of Xu Wenyu fiddled with Jiu Lianhuan was left.

After a while, Sun Zhitao said: "Thank you brother for telling the truth, Zhitao understands. Can you let the younger brother be alone?"

Xu Wenmin nodded, and said: "Even if we are not in-laws, we are also from the same hometown, and we have the affection of watching you grow up. Our Xu family hopes that you will live well and be a wife and son."

He just nodded silently.He had been vaguely aware of this answer before he went to Beijing, and it was not beyond his expectation.Right now, he just needs time to pay tribute to this love that passed away before it even started.

Xu Wenmin knew that what Sun Zhitao needed most at this time was not comfort.No matter how many words of comfort, in the face of the facts, they are all empty and powerless nonsense.

He got up, held Xu Wenyu's hand, and said, "So, let's take our leave first!"

Xu Wenyu is young, how can he know this?

He only knew that he had just met the elder brother of the Sun family and that he was going to separate soon, but he felt quite reluctant.

He thought of a gesture that Ajie often made to her, came to Sun Zhitao with short legs, and said seriously: "Brother Sun, Yu'er is leaving, Yu'er will miss you." After finishing speaking, "Pa Ji" kissed him on the face, waved to him with a smile, and followed Xu Wenmin out.

Sun Zhitao watched his small figure disappear by the door, touched the traces of his kiss on his face, touched the softest part of his heart, and couldn't help but shed two lines of silent tears in his eyes.

Mo Zhu stood outside the door, saw the two of them coming out, and greeted them with a smile, handed the big windmill in his hand to Xu Wenyu, and said: "Master Yu, these two are very beautiful, don't you?" I know which one you like, so I bought them all.”

Xu Wenyu glanced at the two colorful windmills, then looked at Xu Wenmin.Seeing the elder brother nodding slightly, he said politely after the joy just now: "Yu'er thanked Brother Sun and Brother Mo Zhu."

After the two brothers had gone far away, Mo Zhu turned back into the room, saw his young master's expressionless eyes, and sighed.

He had already persuaded the young master not to come to see the Xu family, but the young master didn't listen, it was really bad.

Numerous images flashed in Sun Zhitao's mind.

When I met Xu Wanzhen for the first time, she was still a girl with pink make-up and jade decoration.She was so kind and simple, and she caught his attention with just one glance.Later, the two families formally engaged in marriage, and she became a little shy, but also had the sweetness of a girl.

But the last meeting he will never forget.

Late at night in the woods on the mountain behind the temple, she came as promised in order to know the truth about her father and brother's case.

At that time, she seemed to have grown up a lot overnight.The baby fat had faded from his cheeks, and the expression between his brows was cold. He was respectful but full of alienation towards him.

In fact, at that time, he knew that he had lost her.

After that, all the efforts he made were nothing but his refusal to admit and face it.

It was only at this moment that Sun Zhitao understood it painfully.It turned out that the fate between the two of them was premature and irreversible.He thought painfully that no matter what his future life would be like, he might never be able to forget her.

He let out a long sigh, he didn't want to stay here for a quarter of an hour, he just wanted to go back to his room without seeing anyone.

Sun Zhitao got up in silence, and went straight downstairs.Mo Zhu followed behind him, paid tea money, and the two returned to Sun's house in Zeshanfang one after the other.

……

At the foot of Mang Mountain, Tu's house.

Mrs. Li settled the children down, went back to her room, and told Tu Bowen about the thrilling scene during the game.
