Chapter 16 Indefinite Long Leave (3)
A few hours later, Yu Zhe and Shi Duluo sat in a small western restaurant on the edge of the second district, although it was not as good as those high-end restaurants, but the environment and atmosphere were quite good.
Twilight wore a pure white slim lace shirt, and the sleeves were designed with chiffon balloon sleeves, so that a pair of white arms loomed under the fabric, and a dark gray cashmere vest skirt was chosen for the outfit, adding a touch of mature and stable elegance to the whole outfit.
In contrast, Yu Zhe's outfit is a little casual, with a dark black sweatshirt and dark black pants, which looks lifeless and even a little depressed at a glance.
"All the best tomorrow. Shi Duluo gently pinched the foot of the goblet with three slender fingers, and raised the whole cup slightly to Yu Zhe, the corners of his mouth turned up to reveal eight Hao teeth, and his movements were extremely elegant.
Yu Zhe was a little stunned, the temperament exuded by Twilight in front of him was completely different from the state of "bickering" with Mo Lin in the store in the afternoon, if Twilight was a pure and lovely girl next door in the afternoon, then now she is more like a noble lady with all kinds of charms.
"All the best. After reflecting for a few seconds, Yu Zhecai hurriedly raised his wine glass, and when he looked at each other, he felt that his face was a little hot.
"Ding-" The two wine glasses collided with each other and made a crisp and pleasant sound.
"That ......" Yu Zhe wanted to say something, but he was not good at opening a topic, and it was really difficult to socialize.
"What's wrong?" Shi Duluo looked at Yu Zhe with a smile, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly.
"I noticed...... You've actually set three positions......"
The topic was really terrible, but in a short time, he couldn't think of a more suitable topic.
"yes, I thought Morin was ...... My father would want to come along. Twilight replied with a sip of red wine.
"Didn't he say he could push off the work? ”
"I don't care, he said he was going to be busy with work, but when he saw that you were coming, he changed his words temporarily, I just want to be angry with him this time!" Shi Duluo bit his lower lip lightly, "Don't you see that he just deliberately doesn't want me to contact you." ”
"This ......" Although Yu Zhe saw this, he didn't expect that Shi Duluo would directly pick out the words and tell him.
"Hey...... He, let me have more contact with others, go out and meet more friends, but when I did, he asked me to keep my distance from them, saying that it was for safety, hey...... It's hard to figure out what he wants me to do. Shi Duluo sighed several times in a row, his tone was full of helplessness, "So, sometimes he asks me to do something, I just have to do it with him, anyway, he can't resist me, and in the end he has to follow my temperament." ”
As he spoke, Shi Duluo laughed mischievously, but Yu Zhe faintly felt that this didn't sound right.
"So...... Your attitude towards me...... Also because of ...... and Maureen were angry...... Is it?"
"Sort of, but you're really interesting, our two families are neighbors, and it's not bad to make friends with you. ”
Shi Duluo replied straightforwardly, but it made Yu Zhe feel cold in his heart, sure enough, this is a very bad topic, but it can't be ended for a while, so he can only continue to talk hard.
"Ah...... It turned out to be ...... That's right...... But in that case, your relationship with Maureen ...... It's not as good as it seems......"
"Huh, does our relationship look good?" asked Twilight, her eyes wide open and full of confusion.
"Because looking at the state of your speech, it seems to be very ...... 'relaxed'? It's not like an ordinary father-daughter ......"
"What does that look like?"
"It's like the kind of old friend I've known for a long time, and I can joke without scruples, but I ...... Caring for each other. ”
"That's what I mean. Twilight chuckled, "He cares about me, don't be kidding, it's too late for him to have a headache for me." ”
"No, you're wrong, he really cares about you, it's just that you don't know him. ”
"It's that you don't know him, and if he really cared about me, maybe I wouldn't have had those horrible experiences. Twilight suddenly lowered her eyes, her tone became a little melancholy, she raised her glass again, this time taking a big sip, her face flushed slightly, "You...... Want to hear my story?"
Although Yu Zhe knew in his heart that it was not a good habit to inquire about other people's pasts, his strong curiosity still made him nod his head in a ghostly manner.
"For as long as I can remember, I've lived with my mother and never met my father, but I know that he sends a lot of money every month to live with our mother and daughter, and maybe that's why I've been taking my mother's surname from the beginning. ”
"So you...... ...... said before"
"Yes, I lied to you, mainly because some things are really too cumbersome to explain, so it's better to make up a simple lie. Twilight poured another sip of red wine and smiled a little bitterly.
"My mother never allowed me to ask about my father, I didn't even know what he looked like or what his name was, and of course I thought life would go on like this, but when I was seven years old, everything changed. ”
"Maureen came looking for you?"
"No, my mother died. ”
"Huh?"
"Her heart had been pierced by a bullet, and blood was pouring out of the bloody hole, and it was all over the ground. Twilight pressed the position of her heart, and her tone was gloomy, "At that time, after investigation, the police closed the case as suicide, but I clearly knew that she was killed. ”
Yu Zhe was shocked, but fortunately he didn't write this shock on his face, he didn't think that Twilight would experience such a thing, but if Morin could be a killer's liaison, it makes sense that Twilight had some extraordinary experiences at that time.
"Wouldn't you have been scared?"
"To be honest, I didn't feel anything, I didn't even shed a tear, maybe ...... Because I was only seven years old at the time, I had no concept of death, and I believed that people have souls after death, but later I realized that these were just a kind of self-consolation for the relatives of the deceased. ”
"What about you...... What happened next. Yu Zhe asked cautiously tentatively.
"Then I was kidnapped and imprisoned in a basement with only one meal a day and a bed that was just a thin layer of cushions on the floor, and I was ...... There was a feeling that I was going to be killed at any moment, but it was amazing, and I still didn't feel any fear. ”
Twilight spoke slowly, her voice low and expressionless, her eyes hidden in the shadows due to the dim lights in the dining room.
"Why are you silent?" Twilight chuckled as she picked up her glass and shook the little red wine she had left, then drank it down.
"I ...... Don't know what to do...... Go and say it. Yu Zhe also lowered his eyes, and organized the language for a long time, but he still didn't know what to say.
"Did you listen to my story and feel that my 'personality has collapsed'?" Twilight smiled and folded her hands on the table, dragging her chin.
"No, I just think that despite all these terrible things, you are still doing well, a little ...... It's amazing. ”
Shi Duluo didn't speak this time, closed his eyes, and slowly opened them for a long time: "This story, there is an ending, do you want to hear how I escaped?"
"Hmm......" Yu Zhe no longer concealed his curiosity, and nodded directly.
Shi Duluo smiled, hooked his hand towards Yu Zhe, and motioned for him to come closer, Yu Zhe complied, leaned over and leaned his head over, Shi Duluo also leaned forward slightly, put one hand to his mouth, and whispered in Yu Zhe's ear:
"I, kill him. ”
Yu Zhe was really stupid, for a moment he even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears, and after confirming that it was not a problem with his ears, he began to wonder if Shi Duluo was lying to him, but Shi Duluo's eyes were sharp and firm, making him involuntarily believe all this.
"What do you mean...... Is it all true?" Yu Zhe was still careful to confirm this
"Of course......" Twilight twisted her head to the side and curled the ends of her hair with her hands, her expression was pitiful, but in the next second, Twilight quickly took out her mobile phone and said "click" to Yu Zhe, took a picture, and then covered her mouth and laughed.
"What?!" Yu Zhe was completely stunned, what the hell was this doing.
"Of course, of course it's fake, you should really look at your expression, it's so funny, you won't really believe such a fantasy story, right?"
"How are you!" Yu Zhe didn't know whether to laugh or get angry, but he felt a little aggrieved, this father and daughter were really the same, a serious joke, and they could deceive him every time.
"You really believe it!" Shi Twilight smiled even more happily, "You're really so easy to deceive, I haven't started to show off my acting skills yet." ”
Yu Zhe could only shake his head and laugh dryly, admitting that he was unlucky, and there was nothing he could do if he was deceived.
"What about the real story......
"I did grow up with my mother, but I lived with Maureen after she died of illness when I was seven years old, and that's it, doesn't it feel ordinary and boring?"
Shi Duluo sat leaning over with his head in one hand, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth was very beautiful.
Yu Zhe shook his head and exhaled deeply, "It's good to be mediocre, at least you don't have to worry about where you're going or what you're going to do tomorrow." ”
"But who knows, tomorrow and the accident will come first, maybe today I am still an ordinary me, tomorrow will be a different person. Shi Duluo had a casual attitude, and his tone became careless, but this sentence aroused Yu Zhe's heart.
"If I had the chance, I'd like to tell you a story about me. For the first time, Yu Zhe hooked a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes didn't know where to star, looking a little flustered, he reached out and picked up the red wine on the table and poured it into the cup that was falling at dusk.
"Oh, I'm really looking forward to it. ”
"Good luck with your opening tomorrow. This time, it was Yu Zhe who picked up the wine glass and held it in front of him.
"Ding-" The red wine rippled as the glasses collided, glittering in the light.
"Of course, everything will go well. ”

[Chapter ~ tail ~ color ~ egg ~ (don't say my water word count, this is a serious easter egg QwQ)]
It was almost late at night, and Mo Lin was driving on the way back to District 4, and in the back seat of the car sat Twilight and Yu Zhe.
"I said, you two little bunnies, don't you have any points for how you came here? After drinking so much wine, you called me to pick you up? Do you know how much it cost me to take a taxi here? Can't you call a substitute driver?"
Mo Lin's anger was not to fight anywhere, and he was forced to go out at night to be a 'substitute driver' for these two little rabbit cubs.
"Okay, okay, it's my mistake, I'll do it next time~"
"Little bunny, if there's a next time, you see I don't care about you. ”
"No matter if it's impossible, you won't leave me alone in your life~"
"Shut your mouth!"
Morin finally smiled helplessly, and the car went farther and farther in the moonlight.
