Chapter 30 The Nasty Rainy Night
Chapter 30 The Nasty Rainy Night
When Sister Rui met Bi He, she was still a teenage girl. Before that, she had never seen such a boy in this old city.
Sister Rui hates rainy days, wet and sticky rainy days, whenever her fingers catch her long hair soaked by rain, it seems to be holding her sticky life, the coldness that can never dissipate.
But she met Bi He on a heavy rainy day. The yellow muddy ground in the old town was washed by the heavy rain like a swamp. Holding the hem of the skirt in vain, watching the newly bought sandals stained with disgusting mud.
She walked across the dirt road, walked into the alleys mixed with rainwater and dirt, and passed a corner full of sundries, when suddenly a hand grabbed the hem of her skirt.
The screaming instantly pierced the silence of the night. Sister Rui was so frightened that the umbrella in her hand fell into the mud, and she struggled subconsciously to retreat.
The hand let go of her immediately, and then she heard a weak male voice: "Yes... sorry..."
Sister Rui mustered up the courage to take a look, and just like that, she saw the teenage Bi He.
The boy squatted next to a pile of sundries, his black hair was wetly stuck to his face, one eye was covered, and the one that was exposed was extremely tired.
He doesn't look like a bad guy, but he looks a little scary in this remote place and in the quiet night. Sister Rui parted her bangs washed by the heavy rain, and now her long hair and skirt were soaked. Annoyed: "What are you doing?"
Bi He stood up holding the sundries next to him, and touched the dirt with one hand, but he didn't care: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I...I want to ask the way."
Sister Rui looked at him suspiciously: "Where are you going?"
Bi He mentioned a place name, but it was Tongzilou nearby.
Sister Rui has met many people in this place, and Bi He is not the first person to ask her how to get to Tongzilou, but before that, among these people who asked for directions were debt collectors in shabby clothes, and some people who did not know the sufferings of the world." There are no urbanites like Bi He who are obviously well-dressed but extremely embarrassed.
"You don't look like people here." Sister Rui said, "What's the matter?"
She didn't know why she asked such an extra question, probably because she didn't have much ability to reject good-looking people.
"I..." Bi He hesitated, he stood here so out of place, as if he had strayed into this area by mistake, he looked very reserved, "I'm here to find someone."
Sister Rui bent down and picked up the umbrella on the ground: "Who are you looking for? Maybe I know the people here."
After she finished speaking, she raised her head and saw a slight emotional change in the eyes of the boy in front of her, a hesitant look mixed with surprise and apprehension.
"Just say it directly." Sister Rui said, "I grew up here, and all the neighbors in the neighborhood know each other."
Bi He was silent for a long time, his lips opened and closed again, as if he was in a tug-of-war with himself, and finally opened his mouth when Sister Rui was about to leave impatiently.
"It seems to be called Ma Gan." He whispered, "Someone told me to come and find him."
Sister Rui was taken aback for a moment, and a strange feeling that could not be explained rose in her heart. She couldn't help but looked at Bi He again.
Just from these few glances, she saw in this person a kind of exhaustion at the end of the road and helpless anxiety about the future.
"That's how we met." Sister Rui said shyly, "I asked him why he was looking for a hemp stick, and he just said that he had no place to go, and someone told him to come and find someone to give him a place to live."
She looked up at An Jin nervously. The pressure on this man made her hands tremble uncontrollably, and as she spoke, his face became more and more serious. At this moment, when she looked carefully, she found that his hands were actually Trembling like she was.
"After all these years, I only know that his parents passed away early, and he didn't have any relatives." Sister Rui whispered hesitantly, "But we didn't pay much attention to it. Not many people in this place have a happy family. I am an orphan myself, so I don't have the consciousness to care about other people's life experience."
"I originally thought that Xiaohe would leave soon, but later I found out that he really has no place to go, and there is no rich family as we imagined to pick him up, so he really...has been here for so many years. "
boom.
Sister Rui trembled in fright, An Jin in front of her punched the short table, he seemed to be trying to suppress something, even his eyes turned red.
Like an angry lion, its anger cannot be dissipated, and it keeps gathering.An Jin like this is really scary.
"Actually...Xiaohe has lived a pretty good life these years." Sister Rui pressed her hands, her voice trembling, "He is a good person, no one will make things difficult for him."
These words did not comfort An Jin, he was silent for a long time with red eyes before asking: "You said he was in his teens at that time... How about university? He didn't study anymore?"
Sister Rui hesitated for a while before shaking her head and said, "No...he has no money."
An Jin was silent for a long time, then suddenly buried his face in his hands, unable to speak anymore.
Until Sister Rui left, he never spoke again.Sister Rui looked back at him, feeling a little complicated.
What is the relationship between this person and Xiaohe?Did he really come to look for Xiaohe?If you really cared about Xiaohe, why did it take so many years to show up?
But he looked really sad.
When Sister Rui walked out of the manor, the stranger behind her escorted her into the car respectfully and distantly. The moment she closed the car door, she turned her head and took a look, dripping water on the car window.
It's raining.
The TV show was recorded very late, and Xue Qiao took Qiu Qiufei back to City D the next day. Unsurprisingly, fans picked him up, and when he got into the car driven by Qin Liran, it was already over and told Bi He arrival time.
"Ah~ I'm finally back." Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't know what's going on with Brother Xiao Qiao."
One night later, Qiao Mingxi's agency had issued an announcement stating that Qiao Mingxi had withdrawn from the recording of the party due to a private matter at home, but no one knew the specific reason.
Qiao Mingxi is Xue Qiao's friend, and the two have always had a good relationship from filming Wolf Smoke to recording "Old Friends Apartment". Xue Qiao was somewhat concerned about the other party leaving in a hurry.
Qiao Mingxi's phone couldn't be connected, Xue Qiao sent a text message to the other party and then turned off his phone. He was also a little tired after taking the flight for several hours after the announcement.
Qin Liran sat beside him, thinking about something in his heart, but didn't speak.
There is Bi He's information in his file bag, as long as he waits for an opportunity, he can expose this liar in front of Xue Qiao.
"Brother, shall we go back after eating?" Qiuqiu turned around from the co-pilot, "The meal on the plane is too bad, I feel sick all over if I'm not full."
Qin Liran didn't eat either, and when he heard the words, he was about to speak, but Xue Qiao said: "Let's find a store to pack, Xiaohe probably didn't eat by himself."
Qin Liran paused, and stopped what he was going to say.
