Chapter XXIV
He Mutian's so-called arrangement is to use a lot of money to buy a seat in the top two universities in the late autumn.
So, as soon as the summer vacation passed, in late autumn, accompanied by my sister, I moved my luggage to the student dormitory building of ** university.
I took the key from the dormitory manager and opened the door, and as soon as I stepped in before Wanqiu, there was a dissatisfied voice from behind me: "Why is this place so small?"
Late autumn took a closer look at the dormitory, it was indeed very small, less than 20 square meters, there were two bunk beds, four beds, in the center of the room, four tables and chairs, lined up, making the already small space even more crowded.
"How can people live in such a small place?" Wanqing, who has been accustomed to living in a mansion since she was a child, became more and more dissatisfied with this small dormitory, and took Wanqiu's hand and was about to go out: "Forget it, don't live in the dormitory, come home with me, I will send a car to pick you up and drop you off at school every day." ”
"No, I don't. Wanqiu gently shook off Wanqing's hand, looked around again, and smiled faintly: "It's very good here, I like it." ”
Looking at the light smile on her sister's face, Wanqing stood in place in a daze, feeling very sad, it has been almost two months since the late autumn came, in these two months, in addition to reading, she locked herself in the room, and was occasionally pulled by her and Qin Junyan to play in the living room, and she was also sitting quietly on the sofa alone, staring out the window, surprisingly quiet.
It's not like Late Autumn's personality at all, maybe it's because she has been following Wang Xiaolei around, she hasn't had any friends since she was a child, Late Autumn has always been a talking basket, no one pays attention to her and she can talk a lot on her own, the two sisters are together, she is like a little starling, chattering around her all day long. Sometimes, when she was really annoyed, she would cook a delicious snack or two and block her sister's mouth.
Once upon a time, her lively and cheerful little sister, even when she smiled, there was a faint sadness in her eyes.
Since she came back from late autumn, neither her father nor Qin Junyan have refused to tell her what happened in the United States in late autumn, but what will happen to a young and beautiful girl who has been kidnapped by a group of hooligans, even if they don't say it, she can guess!
Although she could guess, Wanqing still didn't want to face it, that kind of thing was beyond the limit of what she could bear!
So innocent and lovely sister...... No... She didn't dare to think... Can't think about it either!
Fortunately, no matter what happened, she finally came back safely, as long as she was safe, nothing else mattered.
Wanqing held Wanqiu's hand again and said softly: "If you really don't like to go home with me, let's rent an apartment outside and just live with the two of us, okay?"
"Sister...", my sister saw through her heart, and she really didn't know what to say in late autumn.
Indeed, she doesn't like to live in the He family's villa, although the villa is her father's property, but after all, it is also under the name of the company, and the company is a country built by her father and aunt.
It is said that in order to save her, her father has been very unhappy with her aunt, if she enters the house again, the consequences are unimaginable, she already has a dilapidated family, and she doesn't want her sister to be like this, not to mention, living in the family formed by her father and other women, she always has a feeling of being under the fence, although, when she was in the United States, she was also under the fence, but at least at that time, she still had Qin Fengyan's spiritual sustenance, for Qin Fengyan, she was always very positive, and she worked hard to win the unanimous approval of the whole family!
Now, she has nothing left, and living in such a big house again, she will feel that her heart is also empty.
On the contrary, it was so small that it must be very lively when it was full, so that she would not have much room to think nonsense.
“... No need... I'll live here!" Late Autumn's gaze slowly inspected the furnishings in the house, and her tone was unusually firm.
Seeing that she couldn't resist this sister, Wanqing had to sigh, and then ordered the maid to clean the dormitory and make the bed.
Wanqing, who has always been dressed to reach out for food and open her mouth, even lifted her sleeves and helped the housekeeper sort out her luggage.
Wanqiu's heart was moved, and she wanted to intervene, but she was rejected by Wanqing: "The child goes and sits on the side, don't make a mess." ”
Because in the past, late autumn always looked like a childish child, and children became the mantra of Wanqing, and they didn't change it for a while.
As for the late autumn, she wanted to reply to her sister mischievously like before: I am a child, and you are a little adult, but the distance between fifty and one hundred steps is just fifty steps.
But now, she can't laugh at all, and she can't be naughty.
So, she sat quietly on the sidelines, watching her sister and the servants busy for her. Fortunately, they came a day early, and there was no one in the dormitory, otherwise, there would definitely not be so many people in such a small room.
Wanqing, like a little mother, took a large black suitcase from the butler's hand, opened it, and then counted the clothes inside: "One, two, three, four, five, exactly five sets, enough for you to wear for a week." ”
After speaking, he happily pushed the black suitcase under the bed, took a red suitcase from the housekeeper, opened it, and it was empty: "This is for you to put dirty clothes, five sets of clothes, underwear and underwear and socks, you change one set every day, and bring the clothes back on the weekend, and I will ask Aunt Zhuo to help you wash them." ”
"No, I can wash it myself. "These are small things, although she hasn't done them before Late Autumn, but she believes she can handle them.
"If you have time, study hard, and you are not allowed to do such menial work. Wanqing ordered very authoritatively.
"Forget about the clothes, but if the underwear is not washed, how dirty it is!"
Wanqing thought about it and felt that Wanqiu's words made sense, so she added: "Then wear one and throw the other." I'll have someone buy you two boxes tomorrow and keep them at home. ”
suddenly found that her sister was such a genius, and Wanqiu looked at her in a daze, silently speechless.
By the time the room was cleaned and the bed in late autumn was made, it was already evening, because the other students in the dormitory in late autumn did not come, and Wanqing was not at ease, so despite the opposition of late autumn, she dismissed the maid bodyguard and housekeeper, and insisted on staying.
"Sister, you better go back, it really doesn't matter if I'm alone. Seeing my sister sitting awkwardly on the bed, looking uncomfortable, I felt uncomfortable in the late autumn, my sister was a golden branch and jade leaf, a real little princess of the He family, she was born with brocade clothes and jade food, and he had lived in such a simple house.
"It's okay, it's okay. Wanqing patted the bed that was not soft at all and smiled: "I have never lived in a group, and it is not bad to experience it rarely." It's just..."
Wanqing raised her head, looked at the fan that had been spinning and turning overhead, and said very depressedly: "There is no air conditioning, it's so hot!"
Late autumn smiled bitterly: "It's said that you can't get used to it, so let's go back." Wait for two days when it's cool, and you will come back to accompany me. ”
"How can this work!" Wanqing looked resolute: "You live alone, I don't worry, wait until someone moves into this dormitory tomorrow, I'll leave." ”
Tomorrow is the school's designated return date, and because of their special status, they can get the key to come in one day earlier.
That night, Wanqing didn't sleep well, for the first time in her life, she slept on such a hard bed, although she had the foresight to add a thick layer of Ju Mengsi mattress to the bed, but it was still hard, and she slept all over her body, tossing and turning all night.
Wanqing can't sleep well, and she can't sleep in late autumn, since the accident, her sleep is very shallow, often staring at the ceiling in a daze until dawn, sometimes she finally falls asleep, and will be awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night, and then she can't sleep anymore.
"What are you thinking?" Wanqing couldn't fall asleep after flipping around, and when she saw that her sister was the same as herself, she asked.
Late Autumn stared blankly at the gauze tent above her head, and said very calmly: "I'm thinking about my mother." ”
"Aunt Xiaolei?" Wanqing was a little shocked.
Since a month ago, Wang Xiaolei was selected as one of the top ten loving couples in Asia by a website with Qin Zhiyi with super popularity and was frequently interviewed by some newspapers and magazines, and she was not allowed to mention her in front of her in late autumn.
Once, when my father came to see the late autumn, he accidentally found a crumpled and crumpled newspaper in her room, and when he opened it, Aunt Xiaolei's photo occupied a full page, on the photo, she was wearing a gorgeous dress, gently holding her husband's hand, and naturally smiling at the camera.
The father looked at the photos, then the report, and finally said with an incredulous face: "... Xiaolei, aren't you crazy?"
She didn't understand what her father's crazy sentence meant, and she didn't dare to ask, in the He family, Aunt Xiaolei has always been a taboo topic, because in late autumn, she occasionally mentioned it, but every time it provoked her father to be angry, over time, she learned to be obedient, every time she mentioned late autumn, she always skillfully brought this taboo name.
And after that, she found that late autumn was even more depressed than when she first arrived.
Now, it was rare for Wanqiu to take the initiative to mention it, and she couldn't help but want to care: "What's wrong with Aunt Xiaolei?
It should have been a quarrel, otherwise how could she come from the Qin family thousands of miles away to join her and her father.
"No!" Late Autumn's voice was very sentimental: "I'm afraid that she and I won't have a chance to quarrel in the future." ”
Wanqing turned her head and looked at Wanqiu with some astonishment, frightened by her words: "How come?"
Wanqiu didn't answer, just stared blankly at the gauze tent on the top of the bed, and only closed her eyes for a long time, and said in a tired voice: "Sister, it's late, go to sleep." ”
Wanqing looked at Wanqiu steadily, slowly stroked her closed eyes with her gaze, slightly fluttering eyelashes, thin cheeks, for a long time, her eyelashes were slightly wet, but she didn't say anything, just said softly: "Okay." The voice was a little hoarse, and she hurriedly coughed to hide it.
Standing up, she pityfully tucked the corners of the quilt for Wanqiu, and pulled the quilt upwards again, covering her exposed shoulders to avoid catching a cold, and after everything stopped, she did not sleep, but sat silently beside Wanqiu and looked at her for a long time.
Eventually, she let out a silent sigh and dissipated into the dark and silent room, like soot, faintly diffusing with the smell of desolation.
