Chapter 103: Shadow
The foot in the shoe was as disappointed as his owner.
The curtains have been opened, and the world outside the door is on fire. She thought that she might have to go out to find her own year.
Walking to his door, Kang Ruoran hesitated slightly. Should I go in?, she asked herself. What if he happens to be at home? You'll know she's hiding his keys, no, no, no, it's not time to reveal her hole cards.
Kang Ruoran retreated in a panic. But when she got back, she felt suffocated, she ran to the window, opened all the windows, and the fresh air broke in, and she breathed greedily, and it was empty outside, with blue sky, trees, streets, and pedestrians.
Everyone looks so happy.
Why didn't she?
She leaned her back against the windowsill, and after a few steps, she gasped like an old dog, but she still felt that she was not breathing, as if she was in a vacuum jar with a lack of oxygen, and like a fish that was about to run out, she gulped, but she could not make her chest feel better.
Breathlessly, she suddenly remembered the word. If life is really like in the game, there is some blood or soul, she feels that her life is being peeled away little by little.
Kang Ruoran stretched out her hand, and the sunlight outside the window passed through her fingers, casting her withered and thin fingerprints on the opposite wall, like dry branches.
Kang Ruoran, are you Kang Ruoran?
She froze at her brow, trying to grasp the shadow on the wall.
However, she knew that she was destined to be unable to grasp anything, and no one could grasp her shadow. But she was very interested in the game, why can't people catch their shadows?
She thought, the wind came in through the window, ruffling her long hair, and if the wind could be a little stronger, she could fly.
However, she has no wings.
Fleeting time!
She muttered to herself, paced to the edge of the bed, and picked up her phone from the bed.
"Where are you?" she asked. However, typing this line, the few numbers were deleted by her one by one.
"I woke up. She added that her fingers were in close contact with the delete keys, and she deleted them one by one.
"When are you coming back?"
Kang Ruoran hugged the phone, however, did he really come back?
Kang Ruoran threw down the phone in a dejected manner, and the phone fell on the bed and snorted. She didn't move, and it would be nice if I turned into a shadow. She thought, to become a shadow. What kind of shadow has it become? It has become the shadow of the passing years. In that life, he can no longer leave himself, unless he dies.
A smile was drawn on her lips, her heart was like a crack opening, and the flesh and blood in it were blurred, and she was in a mess of pain, but she didn't dare to cry out for pain.
In the next life, become his shadow.
Kang Ruoran thought sadly.
You lost, you missed, no one in this world likes you more than me, and neither can Chen Mofei. No way!
The sound echoed in the heart, making a deep crashing sound. There was a tumult in her stomach, she covered her mouth, staggered and ran in the direction of the bathroom, don't throw it up, she hates the filth that is vomited out, like -----
She didn't dare to think about it, she only felt that fate had written her future at a certain point in time, and she had no way out, no more!
It seemed as if all that could be spit out of her stomach was viscous gastric juice, and she couldn't spit out grief and despair together. Kang Ruoran hugged the toilet, the floor tiles were cold, cold and hard, and her bones were sticking out from under her skin, as if she was silently protesting with someone.
She looked up, and the lights in the bathroom hadn't even had time to turn on, and everything was blurry and dim as far as the eye could see. There was really nothing left to make her vomit, she was a little desperate, and there still seemed to be something in her stomach protesting. They are struggling, and they all know struggling.
And Kang Ruoran didn't think about struggling.
She will always remember that day, the passing year is gone, and she is very angry without saying goodbye. No, she didn't have time to get angry at first. She was just guessing, where did Liu Nian go, where could he go, go out and buy me something to eat?
Thinking of this, she was a little happy.
So he quickly rushed back to his house, and waited for the passage of time to knock on the door like a maiden waiting for her love. She rehearsed the expression she should reveal when she opened the door countless times in her heart, surprised and delighted, and she solemnly warned herself that she must be careful about the exaggerated proportions, and not let him feel exaggerated, nor let him feel bland.
Minutes and seconds passed, and darkness descended with the night. She looked around and saw that the room was a little thin, and there should have been at least a bouquet of flowers, or a pretty candlestick. But everything must be arranged quietly, otherwise the passing year will feel the pressure.
can't be pressured, before coming out, Kang Ruoran's father talked to her once. Father had never talked to her so solemnly, his expression was solemn, the atmosphere was also tense, which made her very nervous, her palms even oozing sweat, she squeezed her fingers, soft fingers collided with the palms, the sound was submerged in the flesh, silent.
"Dad. She spoke, her father did not look up, he was writing big characters, this is the only hobby after his father retired, Kang Ruoran does not know much about words, but she likes to read her father's words, and feels that it is powerful and powerful, representing strength. So every time I catch him to write, if she is around, she will definitely praise her.
"Dad, your handwriting is getting more and more flavorful. ”
Father Kang stopped the pen, smiled, then put the pen on the pen stand, sat down, the weight of his body was evenly spread on the chair, it was a fine yellow rosewood Taishi chair, mortise and tenon structure, so when he sat down, the chair was silent.
"A good thing is a good thing. Father Kang patted the armrest of Huanghuali's chair with one hand and looked up at her. Kang Ruoran sat opposite.
"If so. "Father Kang got straight to the point," if you don't stay with Liu Nian," he paused slightly, "Is it okay?"
He has a pair of eyes that are perceptive, Kang Ruoran doesn't like these eyes, sometimes it makes her afraid, under such a pair of eyes, she is destined to have no secrets of her own. Not even the slightest bit of caution will not work. When she was a child, this incident annoyed her.
Kang Ruoran unconsciously wrung his hands and did not answer, or rather, that action had already answered on her behalf. In short, she saw Father Kang's expression as if he had gotten the answer she wanted to know.
Father Kang sighed, and then lifted the pen from the pen holder, and the high-grade wolf Hao Pen Feng drank black ink sweat, but Father Kang did not look up.
"Man! normal. ”
Kang Ruoran knew what his father was talking about.
"Besides, when you get over there, don't put too much pressure on him. He confessed.
"Hmm. Kang Ruoran bit his thin lip.
"Don't put too much pressure on him. She whispered in her heart that what her father said must have made sense, because he is also a man, and men understand men better.
"Are things ready?" Father Kang put down his pen and pushed through the back of the paper.
Kang Ruoran let out a soft "um" again.
"Outside, you have to take care of yourself. Father Kang instructed.
It wasn't that she hadn't tried to persuade herself, but she felt that she had been greatly insulted when she didn't say goodbye. She waited for midnight that night, in fact, at ten o'clock, Kang Ruoran had already realized that Liu Nian might have returned to China, but she did not give up.
Wait, maybe he'll be back in the next second. Maybe the result wasn't as bad as she thought.
However, the next second, and the next second, countless seconds passed, and the years were gone. She was a little desperate and ran to his house, everything was there, only people were not there.
She sat on the couch at first, then on his bed, and then she put on her clothes and went out. The wind abroad is no different from the wind at home, she called a taxi and told the taxi driver that I was lonely and I wanted to go out and play. Wherever it's fun, take me wherever it's fun? I'm afraid? I'm not afraid of anything.
So she went to a pub and was invited to a drink.
Look, in the passing years, some people like me, and many people like me.
Several people took her to the hotel, and she knew what would happen, so when the first person took off her clothes, Kang Ruoran took off her clothes with interest.
If she refuses to give it to her for many years, she can't get it.
Kang Ruoran smiled bitterly, in addition to what she wanted, what she didn't want was also with her. She doesn't know who the child's father is, does it matter, does she want to give birth to him? Of course. Of course.
Kang Ruoran reached out and pressed the toilet, the water in the toilet swirled into the sewer, she stood up, reached out and turned on the faucet, then took a sip with two palms and rinsed her mouth, and a pale woman appeared in the bathroom mirror.
"Who are you?" she said, touching her finger over the face of the woman in the mirror.
"Who are you?" she saw the woman's mouth in the mirror, as if she was saying the same thing as hers.
"I'm Kang Ruoran. She said.
The woman repeated the same as she raised her hand, and with a "snap", the mirror cracked into pieces, and red blood flowed from top to bottom from the shattered mirror.
She clearly saw the hideous face of the woman in the mirror who claimed to be Kang Ruoran.
Kang Ruoran smiled.
Back in the bedroom, picking up the phone, she sent him a WeChat: goodbye.
Goodbye means never to see again.
She staggered up to the roof platform, where she heard the siren scream, and soon came panting. She looked at him, feeling that he and herself felt both familiar and strange, what a strange entanglement, Kang Ruoran looked at Liu Nian and smiled.
"If I jump, will you jump with me?" she asked, in a calm tone.
"No, it won't. Liu Nian shook his head, "If you jump down, I will take Chen Mofei out of that city and take her away to fly." ”
He wouldn't even tell her a perfunctory lie.
Kang Ruoran glanced down, and the huge air cushion that fluctuated with the wind had been paved. She barely thought about it, and with her arms outstretched, she felt like a big bird with huge wings, riding the wind.
"I'm coming. She said silently. There was only the sound of the wind in my ears.
Liu Nian didn't jump down with her, she raised her head, the wind stirred her long hair through the night, she saw the neon lights blurry and blurred, and there seemed to be thousands of lights in the distance.
"Do you regret it?" she asked herself.
No regrets!
Kang Ruoran closed his eyes calmly.
