In front of him, Su Xiang redialed another number without hurrying: "Hey, uncle, I'm in the top three bar, is your law firm still busy today, I have something going on here..."

"Are you sick?" The man came to grab the phone with a gloomy face, and Su Xiang saw that he quickly turned to the side, and the man pounced.

"Damn! Lao Tzu won't bother with you mongrels today!phew!" spitting on the spot, the man grabbed the woman's arm and walked out quickly.

Su Xiang let out a long sigh of relief, and turned around to Fuli Chengcheng: "Senior, how is it, can you still stand up?"

"It's okay," Li Luocheng slowly straightened up as he endured the pain, "Thank you really for today." ”

He laughed, "You know a lot. But did you call the police?"

Su Xiang raised the mobile phone in his hand, covered his mouth and whispered: "Scare him." ”

"You..." he seemed to be about to laugh, but before that smile could be fully revealed, it was covered by a twisted horror, and he shouted behind Su Xiang, "Get out of the way!"

Su Xiang heard the sound and looked, it turned out that the man turned back again, probably because he was not angry, and even took an empty wine bottle. An arm's length away, he aimed at Li Luocheng's head and threw it hard.

"Get out of the way!" this time it was Su Xiang's turn to shout, her body reacted quickly, and at the same time as the wine bottle flew over, she stretched out her hands and pounced on Li Luocheng.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and Su Xiang and Li Luocheng's eyes met in mid-air.

Strangely, she didn't read any emotion of fear in Lai's eyes, and he was unusually calm, calm enough to give her the illusion that he didn't care even if he was stoned to death.

Distant, with a distant look.

"Bang!"

The sound of the explosion sounded in her ears, and the fragments were splashed everywhere, and she heard her name as Zhao Nianjing crossed the voice, and the onlookers breathed and lifted and put down their breath.

Because Su Xiang pushed Li Luocheng, the bottle grazed his arm and didn't hit anyone.

A false alarm.

The man seemed to calm down after losing the bottle, and fled the scene quickly, leaving a group of spectators still taking selfies and busy bar waiters.

Li Luocheng stood still and did not move, he had been standing there in a quiet position since the beginning, he looked at the glass shards on the ground in distraction.

Zhao Nianjing came over and thought to him: "You're crazy, aren't you! What if I hit you just a little bit?

"It's not like you didn't hit it, you are good, I have something to say to the senior, you go to Li Chong to talk for a while first. ”

She coaxed Zhao Nianjing away like a child, and the customers were scattered when something happened, so there were only two Li Luocheng and Su Xiang left in this place.

"Aren't you afraid?" Li Luocheng turned his back to him, his gaze still focused on the shattered body of the wine bottle on the ground.

Su Xiang nodded honestly: "I'm afraid, but I can't help it, my body made the decision on my behalf, but when I decided to push you away, I should have known that I wouldn't hit myself, I'm also afraid of death, my body command system won't pit me like this, right?"

"Everybody is afraid of death. Li Luocheng said.

Su Xiang felt that Li Luocheng was a little strange at this moment, she had just told a cold joke to ease the atmosphere, but the person in front of her didn't seem to grasp the point.

"Would you like to sit down and rest for a while?" Su Xiang asked tentatively, "Or shall I accompany you to the hospital?"

"No need. He turned around: "Zhou Sichen had a car accident." ”

Su Xiang didn't understand it for a moment.

Didn't Zhou Sichen stay at school well, what kind of car accident could he have if he couldn't get out of school?

"I'm talking about Zhou Sichen in that time and space, and I'm 27-year-old Li Luocheng. ”

Su Xiang froze in place.

Blood clotting.

She opened her mouth as if she had pressed the still button, and realized that she could not utter a full syllable.

Li Luocheng's expression was cold, and his eyes were also cold, this expression was detached from his original gentle and smiling him, as if he was the most suitable. He walked straight across the dance floor as if he couldn't see Su Xiang and sat down on the empty seat in the booth.

Su Xiang woke up suddenly, raised his feet and chased after him.

"What do you mean? No way. She first questioned the veracity of his words, "You don't have a necklace, how can you wear it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Luocheng threw an almost identical sapphire necklace on the table.

His eyes were full of pity when he looked at Su Xiang: "Do you mean this, I made all the sapphire necklaces, they are all experiments I made, like this, there are many more in my laboratory." ”

"In order to find someone, I have been trying to rely on implanting chips to carriers for many years to achieve the purpose of breaking the dimension and crossing time and space. Later, your research center went out of business, and I had no technical support and had to go home with a bunch of failed research scrap on my own, and it was after that that I found out that a few of my many failed products were half-successful—"

"The belated tears you shoot back are one of them. ”

Speaking of this, Li Luocheng finally smiled with a sense of achievement, a little bit of the shadow of that gentle young man: "I didn't plan to tell you this, of course, including Zhou Sichen's car accident, but your push just now made me feel very good, and I want to tell you about it again." ”

Su Xiang almost couldn't stand still, but his voice was still steady: "What did you do?"

"Not me. Li Luocheng fiddled with the beads of the necklace on the table that emitted a bright blue light, and said softly: "When you go back, you will find that I actually have a sales team that specializes in selling children, or Zhou Sichen has already told you - but none of this matters." ”

"My team has been in a state of infighting for almost a year because I've noticed that someone has been trying to find out about me and seems to have tracked down some clues that I haven't wiped clean. My teammates said it would be good to get rid of the man, but I knew it wasn't that easy this time, the guy was smart and could easily pull us along. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Su Xiang and said: "To be honest, I have also been with you for a while before, I never imagined that a shrewd and calculating person like Zhou Sichen would have anything to do with you, and then he married you, which once became one of the few things I couldn't figure out." After that, let's continue to talk—"

"I suggested that he be treated coldly, as long as he didn't get caught in the future, but then there was a call in the team to pull out the nails, and people started to do things without me - such as this car accident. I suspect that it may have been the hands of my disobedient friends. ”

Li Luocheng has never had any special mood swings, and his tone of talking about things is like a third party who has escaped from the incident itself, relaxed, indifferent, and even a little uncomfortable playfulness and freedom.

He has put on another face for so many years, and he has done it without leaking.

Su Xiang moved his lips: "How is Zhou Sichen now?"

"I don't know. Li Luocheng rubbed his chin and thought, "When I first came, I happened to be sent to the rescue room, whether you can save it or not, you have to go back and see for yourself." ”

"I can't go back. She muttered first, and then her voice trembled, "The necklace is broken, I can't seem to go back, can you..."

Li Luocheng looked at her expressionlessly for a while, taking in Su Xiang's fear, panic, and even imperceptible despair born of fear, and tapped his knuckles on the table: "I said, everyone is afraid of death - necklaces are half-finished, and you can't freely control the time or space you want to wear, let alone break into slag." It's a coincidence that we can meet each other, and if you try in this case, you may get stuck in the gap in time and never go back, and even then, you won't take back what you want to say?"

"You help me, I want to see him. Sue wanted to complete the rest of the words.

"He's probably dead. ”

"Then I have to go to his side even more," Su Xiang took a deep breath, she suddenly felt that she had supreme courage, and she said firmly: "No matter what time and space, young Zhou Sichen will meet young Su Xiang, and they can still get married and love each other like us... But if I don't go back, then how to let them write in the future, how can these three words of Zhou Sichen stay in Su Xiang's heart as an adult..."

"Well said. Li Luocheng applauded lightly, "Then see you tomorrow night in the mountains behind the school, welcome to come and find death." He smiled.

*

The school sat at the gate of Sanjia for a long time, watching the night slowly disappear in front of me like ink in clear water, watching the street lights turn off and the morning light turned on, and watching the office workers driving by and roaring past.

When Li Chong came home from the store and saw such a person at the door, he was so frightened that he took two beats to make sure that the person was alive.

"Hey, you're not going to sit in the doorway all night, are you? Why don't you go back to school?"

Su Xiang slowly agreed that she was still a student now, she had to go back to school to stay, nodded goodbye, and walked to school.

It is rare to come in from the main gate with a swagger the next day, the doorman hurriedly called Su Xiang's head teacher, and the first one to run out in a hurry was Zhao Nianjing, her little face was pale with fright.

"I'm scared to death! Where have you been! I couldn't find you in the middle of last night to ask Brother Li, he said that you came back, and I didn't see you when I went back to school, I couldn't wait all night and could only report to the old class, why are you like this!"

Su wanted to pat her head comfortably: "Isn't this coming back, squatting in the toilet last night and having diarrhea." ”

"Have you been pulling for two hours!" Zhao Nianjing roared angrily.

"Hmm. ”

Immediately afterwards, the two middle-aged men from the old class and the sophomore department also rushed over, and the old class was so angry that his entire temple was jumping, and he slipped back without saying a word.

Su thought that the situation of not returning all night this time was so serious that it could be deducted, but seeing that she won an award some time ago, the school meant to give a warning, and then punish her for a review on Monday morning.

Su Xiang accepted it very meekly this time, and only bowed quietly and apologized in the face of the reincarnation bombardment of the major teachers.

All day long, she was in a state where she didn't want to say anything superfluous, quietly listening to the class and taking notes, Zhao Nianjing really felt as if something had happened, but she didn't dare to ask directly, so she could only help Su Xiang run errands and pour water, and then divide half of the snacks she brought.

Before the start of the evening self-study, the sunset outside the window shone in through the window lattice, spreading out a beautiful halo in the classroom, Su Xiang looked at the orange sunset outside the window, and said to Zhao Nianjing: "Thank you." ”

"What did you thank me for suddenly..."Zhao Nianjing was uncomfortable.

"Of course, thank you for having such a good friend!" Su Xiang smiled for the first time today, reaching out and pinching her face, who screamed in pain.

"You're finally normal! But it scares me to death, do you know how worried I am!" The girl's eyes were red, and she was about to cry in the next second.

"Isn't this being dealt with with a warning, you have to give me a time buffer, right?" Su Xiang smiled, closed the books and stacked them neatly on the corner of the table, she got up and said to Zhao Nianjing: "I went to the old class office to accept the sublimation of thoughts, you can stay in the classroom." ”

Zhao Nianjing nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you to go back to the dormitory together in the evening." ”

"Hmm," Su Xiang looked at her and smiled, "Wait until I come back." ”

The road to the back mountain is not easy to walk, in the early years, when the school just ran down this land, the back mountain was really just a barren straw bale, and then the money allocated from the top continued to flow into Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, and the principal took care of the back mountain with some energy.

The mountain is trimmed, the lake has hundreds of fish, and the pavilion is built on the edge of the lake halfway up the mountain, which is the first choice for school couples to hold hands for private meetings at dinner time.

Su Xiang climbed up the stairs step by step, and when she saw the sharp corner of the pavilion, she suddenly remembered that she had made an appointment with Zhou Sichen to meet tonight, and she might not be able to say goodbye to him before leaving.

Her heart was sour, the cold air was pressed into her lungs, and she arched her waist as if she couldn't breathe, and raised her feet to continue up.

On the edge of the lake, she saw Li Chengcheng waiting there.

"Actually, I've always had a question for you," he didn't look back, looking at the sparkling lake in front of him and talking to Su Xiang behind him, "Why don't you look like you're not afraid of me at all, like you came tonight when I asked you to come, what if I kill you?"

He showed sincere confusion: "I'm a human trafficker, and I've indirectly killed a lot of people, aren't you afraid of me?"

Su wanted to walk over and stand with him, and asked instead of answering, "Who are you looking for after spending so much energy to make a necklace that can break time and space?"

"Secret. Li Luocheng said.

"Then I'm a secret. Sue thought.

Li Luocheng was stunned, and then looked at her and laughed, laughing enough that he straightened up, and the corners of his mouth still maintained an upward arc, looking no different from the previous Li Luocheng: "Well, you are very interesting Su Xiang." I kind of like you. ”

"Seriously. Su Xiang looked sideways at him: "You turn yourself in." ”

Li Luocheng's smile faded.

"Although Zhou Sichen mentioned some things about you to me before, I instinctively didn't dare to believe it, and when all kinds of signs surfaced later, and everything related to you, I began to be at a loss, obviously in my impression, you are not such a person, the Li Chengcheng I saw——"

Li Luocheng interrupted impatiently: "I don't even know what I am, and I don't need others to tell me." Are you going back?"

Su Xiang nodded: "Return." ”

"Where's the necklace?"

"Brought it. Sue wanted to hand him the box.

Li Luocheng opened it and looked at it, he took out a small fragment and flipped it twice in his hand against the night, "Okay, this one is wasted, the chip line is broken." ”

Su wanted to ask, "Can you fix it?"

"How to repair it?" Li Luocheng sneered, "This is Jiangcheng ten years ago, and your Su family scientific research institute has not yet been established, where can I find equipment to repair?"

"Then I can't go back......" Her face turned pale in the night, and her clenched knuckles ached from the exertion.

Li Luocheng looked at her and nodded in a good mood: "Well, I can't go back." ”

Su Xiang felt that the blood in her body was flowing backwards, heading straight for her temples, and she couldn't hear the sounds around her, and Li Luocheng's face began to blur in her vision.

"And why should I help you, I'm a bad person, and I don't like Zhou Sichen very much. He took a few steps closer to Su Xiang, because he could clearly see the deep despair in her eyes, this despair made him happy in his heart, and he watched it repeatedly as if he were appreciating a work of art.

"I hated him," he said for a moment, his expression twisted unnaturally, "I thought he was going to be a man like me, withdrawn and high-minded. But I'm higher than him, because everyone is willing to talk to me and do things, and in their hearts, I'm a good person. But later, I seemed to envy him a little....."

"Hmm... That's right... Envy him ......"

Li Luocheng was babbling nonsense, and Su Xiang had no intention of listening to it.

She shuffled back with her staggering steps, and as she passed by Li Luocheng, the boy reached out and grabbed her arm.

"Then I realized that I was different from him, that I was a bad guy and that I enjoyed being a bad guy. ”

He chuckled at Su Xiang in the night.

"Su thought, say hello to him for me. ”

Caught off guard, the person on her wrist suddenly held her shoulder with his hand, and then pushed it violently, Su Xiang staggered and fell to the side, and when she turned over the calf-high fence, she looked at the person who was looking at her expressionlessly on the shore and thought in hindsight.

She's probably going to die here.

"Plop-" The water splashed high.
