Chapter 33 The Blend of Fire and Water
............ At this moment, the quiet Li Huo noticed something strange.
Feng Yu's head shook slightly, and then gradually, gradually, gradually............
He leaned gently forward against the plastic partition window, and he could already clearly hear the snoring sound as thin as a mosquito.
Feng Yu, who was driving tiredly, had already fallen asleep in the sound of the horn............
Li Huo looked at her sleeping side face and felt that this girl should be very beautiful.
However, the exhaustion of life at this moment has painted her with makeup, so that she cannot bloom in her original brilliance......
Slowly, he stretched out a hand and hung it above Feng Yu's shoulder.
Click, click.
The sound of the wipers swaying back and forth is like the second hand moving that I heard today, signaling that the minutes are passing.
Li Huo never continued to make any movements, and he didn't know if he felt that it was not good for him to touch other girls like this.
Or do you feel taboo about touching other people's bodies?
Or did he want Feng Yu to be like this...... Sleep a little longer?
Time waits for no man.
The countdown of the traffic lights is approaching twenty.
Li Huo gently dropped that hand, letting the four fingers gently fall on Feng Yu's shoulder.
In an instant, he felt the warmth of his hometown from his fingertips.
He didn't want the feeling to fade too quickly, so he paused for seven or eight seconds.
Blink and purse your lips.
Li Huo still exerted a little force, shook it, and woke Feng Yu from his slumber.
Slowly opening his eyes, watching the endless red taillights gradually disappear, Feng Yu said to Li Huo with a tired expression: "I...... Are you asleep? Sorry ............."
Then he stepped on the accelerator and drove forward with the cars moving forward.
After driving a while, they saw that they were about to pass the next intersection, but unexpectedly............
The color of the signal light changed, and the taxi was stopped at the intersection.
As for the time, it is just right.
The gravitational jolt caused by the brakes makes the body feel forward and come to a steady stop.
Look up at the flickering signal lights in the windshield wipers.
The old signal light couldn't show a three-digit number, and it just stopped at ninety-nine, red.
Still red.
It's a nervous, wake-up color.
Also...... The color of the blood.
Lack of sleep, mental fatigue, nervousness, endocrine disorders, plus I just fell asleep while driving......
Feng Yu felt that he was about to lose it.
She leaned limply on the headrest of the driver's seat, and her emotions were close to collapse.
"Oh my God, I hate my job"
"I hate this car, it's like my coffin, signaling that I'm going to die here. β
Li Huo's eyelids drooped downward, looking at the non-slip mat that had been wet.
He understood Feng Yu's feelings, but he chose to remain silent when he couldn't speak. and listening.
"Holy, it doesn't even belong to me at all............"
"When I die, I know they're going to take my body out of this car, drop it down the drain, and give it another person, another person to go in, someone who has also lost their dreams............"
"At one point, there was even a guy who in the back seat. β
"I'm going to have to clean up that myself. β
"Not to mention the drunken vomit, they're more disgusting than. β
"I didn't leave my homeland to die in this movable coffin stained with excrement and vomit. β
"But...... I'm living for ...... There is simply no other way for me to choose............"
The more you talk, the more you break down, and the more you talk, the more you choke
Swallowing, Feng Yu took a deep breath, still staring at the red signal light that showed ninety-nine.
"Tell me, is that right?"
After listening, Li Huo, who had been silent, completely opened his eyes.
He moved his butt a little, trying to sit on the edge of the seat. Leaned forward and approached the plastic baffle window in the front seat.
Then shake his head gently............
"No, that's not right. β
Immediately after, he slowly raised his arm again, reached forward and touched Feng Yu's shoulder.
Give encouragement and support.
Share your emotions and frustration.
Let her also feel the warmth from her hometown.
Click, click, clickββββ
Quiet interior, automatic wipers on the front window, rhythm ...... It's like a heartbeat.
Feng Yu raised his head slightly, and the signal light still showed ninety-nine.
But she didn't look at the traffic lights, but in the rearview mirror, staring at Li Huo's firm and serious face.
(If this is the person, you can understand my pain...... οΌ
Slowly, slowly.
Feng Yu raised his arm and put his hand on his. Gently ...... Gently feel the warmth and coldness of people.
The warmth was like a cloud floating through my hometown.
Like a chirping insect by the edge of a pond.
It's like wood burning under a fire.
Heartwarming.
But soon, she slowly brushed her hand over and withdrew.
Because she knew that by doing so, nothing would change, but she would feel a little comfort in her heart.
Tomorrow, she'll still be trapped here, in a coffin on four wheels.
Li Huo's eyes were a little uncertain, and he also felt this helpless transmission.
Now that the other party has already put his hands down............
Soon, Li Huo also withdrew his hand from Feng Yu's shoulder, and the whole person leaned back to the backrest.
Without saying anything, Li Huo fell silent again.
What else could he say?
What else could he do?
Hold on, come on?
Those are very vicious words, obviously.
She's worked hard, she's going to be able to hold on anymore, she has nothing left to cheer on......
Hold on, come on?
In the face of a huge gap in reality, these vicious words have no meaning.
Speaking to others is like a reproach.
Whispering to myself is like a curse.
.................. At this moment, Li Huo thought of something.
'I hate my job. β
He knew what to say.
Because........................
"Me too, I hate my job, I hate my life, but ...... I don't hate myself. β
"I don't have to hate myself. - he added.
Feng Yu smiled, and when she noticed that the atmosphere had become heavy, she pretended to be relaxed and became stronger, and said to Li Huo: "Me too...... I don't hate you either. β
The smile once again hung on Li Huo's face.
Two people from a foreign land, exhausted physically and mentally, sat in such a boring taxi, and drove forward againββββ
Like all journeys and encounters, the end that symbolizes the end and the parting that will always come has arrived.
It's here.
Li Huo had arrived at his destination and had been serving as a hotel for his stay.
Reflecting the warm lights of the dilapidated building, the two people in the car were illuminated red.
Li Huo's body was still very wet, but he still took out a fifty yuan that was still dry and tidy.
He grabbed the note between his two fingers and pointed it through the small window
The previous hand.
"No change. β
Then, he smiled haggardly at her, picked up the briefcase in the back seat, clicked open the taxi door, and walked into the pouring rain alone.
By the way, the book-chasing app I've been using recently, cache to read books, and read aloud offline!
Bump.
He closed the door.
Feng Yu, who was sitting in the car, slowly lowered his head and didn't say a word.
The rain was still pouring outside the car, wetting the windows and obscuring people's vision.
The musty smell filled the air, as if the inside of the car was completely cut off from the outside of the car, and it became two completely different worlds.
The icy rain, as cold as the city, once again ruthlessly wet Li Huo.
One step, two steps.
With each step, Li Huo felt his body getting heavier and heavier.
He still wants to say something, he still wants to do something.
One more step, and he stopped.
He remembered the courage that welled up and down his body not long ago when he rescued the black cat.
At that time, he didn't have the courage to have when he wanted to die.
If you can muster up the courage to move forward..................
This kind of shit-like life and work..................
Something has to change!!
When I turned around, the rain was scattered. It's as if the old self has been washed away............
Li Huo found that Feng Yu in the car window was also looking at him.
Then, he stepped forward quickly and knocked on the window of the taxi............
Buzzββββββ
The window fell very gently.
There was nothing to stop the two men from looking at each other.
While looking at each other, no one said a word, just stared into each other's eyes.
For a while, Li Huo was also attracted by Feng Yu's eyes.
The eyes with some dark circles seem to be painted with smoky makeup, and they look very good............
In silence, Li Huo gathered all the thousands of words he wanted to say into one sentenceββββ
"I live in room 301. β
Click.
As soon as Li Huo's words fell, Feng Yu felt his body shake.
It turned out that at this time, the back door of the taxi was also opened, and another woman got into the car by herself.
"Go to the intersection of No. 85 Avenue and Ping'an Avenue," she said. β
Smack.
After speaking, she put away the umbrella and closed the car door casually.
Looking back, Feng Yu looked at Li Huo outside the car window again.
He stood in the rain, looking helpless, like a homeless puppy, waiting for the love of his master.
The expressions of the two were almost embarrassed, and between the stares, the new passenger seemed to not exist.
Time and space seem to freeze in this moment.
Click, click
In the silence, the speed of the windshield wipers grew faster and faster............
Two hearts, too, are poundingββββββ
Seeing the warm sight, a little spark is about to burst out.
.............................. The dim lighting in the elevator hall is no different from the inside of the car.
There was a non-stop rainstorm, and the sound was no different from the shower head.
Li Huo took off his soaked suit, only wore a white shirt, and sat on the bed alone.
He's doing what he does best.
He's waiting.
He's good at waiting.
Click.
The bathroom door opened.
Li Huo had already waited for what he was waiting for.
He's been waiting for ββββββ
