the gravity of the rainbow

Chapter 19 Love Mini-Novel: A Tale of Two Cities

When Jingyi climbed down from the swinging hammock, she landed with her hands first.She felt like a spider crawling out of the web, her hands were sticky and wet, as if she could stick herself to the beam at any time, but there was a thread in her heart that was dragging in the man's hand.Indian incense is lit in the bedroom, smoke, flowers, and wood, soothe the nerves and calm the mind, and the square inch of the land is as high and deep as a temple.But the masculine scent of a man is omnipresent and confusing.In fact, the pleasure she felt when she slid down Jun Tao's smooth back was no less than the gymnastic movements they made in the hammock for happiness and balance.Both of them are complacent about their middle-aged but flexible limbs like teenagers.When she got married, Jingyi said she wanted to put a hammock in the bedroom to add a South American flavor to the classical courtyard house.Jun Tao is a designer and loves handwork. He drills holes in solid hardwood and inserts finger-thick brown ropes, which are covered with soft cushions wrapped in pure cotton.At night, the hammock wrapped them up like a giant palm leaf, shaking and creaking at every movement.In deep sleep, the two huddled together due to gravity, like twins in the womb.Whoever wakes up gives the half-awake other a nudge, and the swing swings back to sleep.

Jingyi went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and suddenly the trousers hanging by the laundry basket vibrated slightly.She took out Juntao's cell phone from the inside, and glanced at it curiously. There was a text message on it, only three words, but her face immediately turned pale: Waiting for you.Fei.

Jun Tao's architect's studio is in the busiest commercial center of City C, while their home is in City A.Between the two cities, if you drive, you have to walk for an hour on the high speed.Jingyi is teaching in City A, while Juntao cannot stay away from clients in his job. He leaves early and returns late every day, which has become a habit after a few years.Another reason is that shortly after the marriage, a fire broke out in Jingyi's elementary school. In order to save a student, Jingyi's face was hit by a piece of burning wood.She had a burn near her cheekbone, near her eye, and she had had several facelifts, but the results were not good.Jun Tao promises that no matter what she becomes, he will love her forever.But Jingyi has a low face and feels that she can't meet people, so she refuses to move. The neighbors in the neighborhood see each other every day, so it's okay to be surprised.

The business of the studio is quite good, but the price is that Jun Tao often has to draw all night.For the sake of convenience, he bought an apartment in the city, and spent less than half of the year not going home for the night.Jingyi didn't complain.Firstly, a man's career is important; secondly, her income is limited, and she doesn't know how much she spent on plastic surgery, so she just feels guilty.Jingyi has never heard of this "Fei", and Juntao has never mentioned it either.There are very few women in the profession of architects, and Jun Tao's only acquaintances, secretaries, and subordinates do not have this word in their names.This is a strange woman, but she shares the same man.

The next day, Jingyi secretly went to City C. She subconsciously felt that Fei was living in City C, perhaps in Juntao's apartment.He went to check Fei's number, and it was obvious that he was catching an adulterer, but he sneaked into the phone booth to call her like a thief.The phone connected with a beep.

"Hello?" It was a voice as gentle as hers.

"Excuse me, do you know Shao Juntao?"

"know."

"I'm Shen Jingyi, Juntao's wife."

There was a sudden pause and asked, "Is Juntao married?"

Jingyi is dumb.

In the cafe, Jingyi stirred the milk tea into orange.Chen Xiaofei looked at her and let out a long sigh.Jingyi has never been a competitive person, and she doesn't care if she is not given what should be given to her since she was a child, but Juntao likes this and feels magnanimous.Jingyi didn't imagine Xiao Fei's appearance when she was going out, she was more worried about how she had the nerve to appear in the modern city of C, after seeing the advertisements of beauties all over the street, and seeing the fashionable girls coming out of the subway, The frustration was doubled for no reason.The main room looked for the mistress, and his arrogance had already been reduced by three points.Xiao Fei looked at Jing Yi boldly.Jingyi covered her face with half a silk scarf, it was very mysterious, even smart people could see some clues.Xiao Fei is wearing a hand-embroidered linen dress. She has a fair face, a slender figure, and clever and cunning eyes. She has a good temper and taste. The diamond ring on her finger, Cartier on her wrist, and LV (Louis Vuitton) in her hand All expensive.Xiao Fei is engaged in sales in a pharmaceutical company, and her performance is top-notch, but she often travels on business.She and Jun Tao met on the plane.Xiao Fei admits that she is very active in love, but Jun Tao claims to be unmarried, so it cannot be regarded as her fault.The two lived together for two and a half years, which is about the same time as Jingyi's marriage.Xiao Fei has ambitions and wants to be the sales director, but refuses to be bound by marriage.Jun Tao didn't force it either, and the two came along casually, half as friends and half as a couple, enjoying themselves.

Xiaofei asks Jingyi what her plan is.Jingyi said: "If you like him, live with him, I can divorce." She said it very casually, but her heart was cut like a knife. For a moment, she loved, trusted, relied on this man, and even expected his future and future All turned to zero.

"So generous, you must not love deeply, right?" Xiao Fei smiled. She has a small mouth, and her teeth are so white that they can be used in toothpaste advertisements.

"What is more important than getting to know someone?" Jingyi straightened her spine. At that moment, her head was raised high, and the silk scarf slid back, revealing the ferocious right half of her face, like the other side of the moon. On the surface, Xiao Fei was startled.

"You're right." Xiao Fei stared at her again, her voice suddenly softened.

Jun Tao returns home at normal time.A few side dishes were placed on the table, the house was extremely tidy, and Jingyi was tidying up the desk.

"I went to City C today," Jingyi said, pointing to a pile of shopping bags piled up by the door, "Sweeping. Look at this bag, isn't it good?" She pulled out a bag from a huge bag. A white leather bag on his wrist.

Jun Tao's eyes were burned by the golden logo on it: "LV?" It's not that he thinks it's expensive, but he just bought an identical one for Xiao Fei a month ago.Seeing Jingyi's satisfied smile, Juntao suddenly felt guilty.

After being burned, Jingyi was afraid to go to any public places, especially stores, and even bought cosmetics online.Jun Tao came from a poor and humble background, and his first pot of gold after entering the industry was supported by his father-in-law.Of course, now that he has made a fortune, he doesn't care about his father-in-law anymore.But Juntao's persistence after Jingyi's burn made his father-in-law and his family grateful to him.

"Will you go to bed early today?" Jingyi said.

That's a hint.He was working quite hard in the hammock, almost flattering with guilt.Doing foreplay to the symphony, watching her reactions in the dim light.But Jingyi seemed careless, which was very different from satisfying him with all his strength in the past, so he had to send her to climax again and again in his anger.The woman in her arms was writhing like a small fish, her long hair was soaked in sweat, and her body was entwined like seaweed. The movements were fierce, as if two skeletons were fighting, and the bones could be heard rattling.The idea of ​​leaving her surged in Jun Tao's heart again.This woman seemed to exist only to test his sentiment, and the small city of A couldn't contain his ambition.Just as he was panting and climbing to the peak of excitement, his cell phone rang suddenly.

It was just eight o'clock, and it wasn't night, so everyone was taken aback.Jun Tao had to climb down from the hammock in embarrassment, and glanced at the number.

"It's me." Xiao Fei's voice came from there.

"I'm... busy, what's the matter?"

"I want to see you, right now."

"Now?"

"Correct."

He found a lot of reasons, an important design drawing was sent back for revision, tomorrow is the deadline (deadline), all the materials and printers are in the studio in C City.I don't know if Jingyi believed it, but he left in a hurry anyway.Different from Jingyi's gentleness and obedience, Xiaofei is known as "little pepper", and she can turn her face if she doesn't agree with her in three sentences.

Jun Tao rushed to Xiao Fei's apartment impatiently, and when he knocked on the door, she grabbed his tie and pulled him straight into the bedroom.Xiao Fei pressed him on the bed without a stitch in his hands: "I miss you, I want you." He was quickly teased, with a beast lying on his chest, he couldn't breathe.It's hot, to the point, almost combative, between them.Jun Tao immediately felt exhausted and happy, and couldn't help complaining: "That's why you called me here? I'm drawing a picture!"

"It's the same with painting on me." Xiao Fei touched his face with a smile, "I have good news for you, I'm pregnant. I didn't want to get married before, but now, I really want to be a mother. Juntao, let's get married Bar!"

He took a breath in his heart: "Married?"

"How about going to register tomorrow? I don't like my child without a father."

"Well—that's it. I have an important project recently, and I really can't separate myself from it. I have to finish this summer. Or, wait a little longer?"

Xiao Fei's face immediately changed: "What are you waiting for? Didn't you keep yelling that you would marry me before?"

"Didn't you also say... you don't want to get married? Marriage is such an important matter, you should talk to your parents first, right? Let's set a date first, and the parents on both sides will meet. This is the courtesy, right?" Jun Tao knew Xiao Fei's parents are busy with business in the United States, so it's not easy to come back.

Xiao Fei still wanted to reason, when the phone rang.Jun Tao quickly said: "It's my work assistant, I'll go to the balcony to pick it up."

It was Jingyi's voice: "Juntao, aren't you in the studio?"

He broke out in a cold sweat: "Well...not here, I'm on the way outside."

"Thinking that you worked so hard to catch the picture all night, I made soup for you and sent it here by car. It will be there soon."

For the first time in his life, Jun Tao found himself playing with fire too much.In the past, Jingyi closed herself up, and Xiaofei flew in the sky all day, so she could hug left and right, and each had its own interest.Now that the two women have slipped out of the normal track, he immediately felt overwhelmed.Physical strength is secondary, and no matter how clever the brain is, it cannot withstand this toss.At the moment, I had to ask for leave again, and hurried out the door with a part of my body still stiff.

Hurrying back to the studio, she drank a large bowl of soup under Jingyi's gaze. Jingyi said softly, "You forgot what day it is, and you didn't buy me a gift, so I had to give myself an LV."

He suddenly remembered that today was their wedding anniversary.how many years?Can't remember.But the traditional shows of Remembrance Day will still be staged.

"Who said I don't have a gift?" He suddenly picked her up horizontally and put her on the long drawing table, "I'll give you a big one right now."

However, for the first time in his life, he couldn't!

To distract himself from his frustration, he had no choice but to say, "Hi, Jingyi, I have a surprise for you."

She gazed at him quietly.

"I was selected by the province as one of the top ten architects this year. There will be a grand award ceremony this Friday. You must attend this time. I will thank you in public for everything you have done to me over the years."

It doesn't take even a second to weigh the positions of the two women in his heart.Jingyi risked her life to save elementary school students in the fire. She is a community heroine.As for myself, I worked hard from scratch, borrowed the financial resources of my father-in-law, and should repay my kindness, not to mention that the notoriety of throwing away my wife and remarrying will seriously affect my career and future.If he really wanted to offend someone, he could only sacrifice Xiao Fei.He began to figure out how to persuade Xiao Fei to kill the child.

Now it's time for the awards show.The audience was full of industry elites, colleagues who worked together, superiors who promoted him, officials who appreciated him, customers who had cooperated with him for many years, reporters from newspapers and radio stations, and live broadcasts from many provincial and municipal TV stations. .To his surprise, Jingyi, who has never been willing to show up in public, readily expressed her willingness to go.She wore a black silk gown full of small gold pieces, and a delicate little hat slanted, with a small piece of black gauze hanging from the hat, hiding the scarred right side of her face.Juntao's speech was ingenious. He used PPT (presentation) to introduce his mental journey into the construction industry, and showed his design results. The last picture is a sweet photo of him and Jingyi.Jun Tao turned his face to the camera, and expressed his gratitude to his wife in an affectionate baritone voice.In the flickering spotlight, a woman stood up, took off her hat and signaled to everyone.

Suddenly, there was silence in the hall.Everyone could see that the woman's face was flawless, without an obvious burn as in the legend, and her appearance was completely different from the huge projection on the big screen.

She is not Jingyi.

Jun Tao was stunned all of a sudden.

At this time, another woman also stood up and lifted the hat on her head.

Her voice was not loud, but very clear: "Juntao, the person you want to thank, is she or me?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall, and then there were whispers, and then, there was an uproar like a stone statue collapsing, and countless cameras and flashlights were aimed at the two women.

A month later, Jingyi divorced.She changed her job and moved to City C by herself.She and Xiao Fei often go shopping and drinking coffee together.When Xiao Fei told Jun Tao that she falsely reported her pregnancy just to tease him, the man roared, picked up a chair and threw it at her, missed, but Xiao Fei immediately called the police.

After taking a sip of coffee, Xiao Fei took out a tissue and wiped her mouth, leaving a bright red lip print on the white paper.

"It will be great when the original partner and mistress can unite like us," she said.

Jingyi couldn't help smiling.
