Chapter 74: Best Childhood Friend

First acquaintance with Lu Ziqi...... It was already eleven years ago!

That year, Mu Ye was seven years old and Lu Ziqi was ten years old.

Mu Ye followed his mother to the newly formed family.

The rich life did not bring happiness to Mu Ye, on the contrary, it made him feel lonely and depressed!

Here, there is nothing he knows and no friends to hang out with...... Until the appearance of Lu Ziqi!

It stands to reason that the memory of a seven-year-old child should be vague, but for some reason, the scene of seeing Lu Ziqi for the first time, Mu Ye still remembers it vividly.

That day, Mu Ye, as usual, wanted to go to the swing in the community to sit, but suddenly found a little girl sitting on the slope lawn not far away.

The little girl had long, straight and silky hair that was scattered haphazardly over her thin shoulders.

She sat quietly on the grass, her cotton shoes stained with grass clippings, and her thin pink and white socks wrapped tightly around her small feet, just like her thin body.

There is too much indifference on that delicate little face, and the slightly pointed chin is matched with rounded lines, like a cluster of crystals, clear and transparent, cold and alienated.

"You...... Hello...... Sister ......" Mu Ye stepped forward and stammered in greeting—he needed a friend so much in this strange environment.

The little girl glanced at him and said coldly, "Go away!"

This was their first meeting, and each said a word, which was not friendly.

In the days that followed, Mu Ye often saw this young lady sitting quietly on the lawn, looking at the direction of the mountains in the distance.

In her dark and clear eyes, Mu Ye could find something that made his heart tremble, was it sadness, or longing?

Once, Mu Ye saw the little girl burying her head and sobbing there, Mu Ye stood on the side, helpless, and didn't know how to comfort her.

Maybe she didn't need Mu Ye's comfort, and soon she stopped her tears.

Seeing the helpless appearance of the little boy beside her, she looked at it in a daze for a while, and then burst out laughing.

That smile was like a ray of sunshine intertwined with the season, very warm and beautiful.

At this meeting, she told Mu Ye her name: Lu Ziqi.

In the next few days, the two became more acquainted.

Mu Ye sometimes has the courage to sit next to Lu Ziqi, and she will not drive him away.

Most of the time, Mu Ye was talking, and Lu Ziqi listened quietly, smiling from time to time.

Even if it was just that, Mu Ye was already satisfied.

It wasn't a year before they actually became friends.

That day, Mu Ye came home from school and saw several big boys pestering Lu Ziqi.

Eleven-year-old Lu Ziqi already has a little peerless appearance, and those big boys may not have any bad intentions, but Lu Ziqi is obviously unwilling to play with them.

Seeing that they grabbed Lu Ziqi's clothes and didn't let her leave, Mu Ye dropped his schoolbag and rushed over!

Mu Ye, who was thin and weak, naturally would not be the opponent of those big boys, and he was beaten by the other party with a blue nose and swollen face, and in the end it was Lu Ziqi who beat them away.

"Why are you helping me ......," Lu Ziqi said with a complicated look at the little boy who was three years younger than himself.

Mu Ye wiped his nosebleed, tilted his head and said proudly: "We are friends, of course I can't see you being bullied!"

"Friend......" Lu Ziqi muttered, and gradually, her eyes became brighter and brighter: "Yes, it's a friend." ”

It turns out that a friend's ...... is needed Mu Ye is not alone.

After that, the two of them became friends who talked about everything, except for their respective family situations.

Speaking of this topic, which both of them are a little evasive, it was three years later.

That year, Mu Ye was eleven years old and Lu Ziqi was fourteen years old.

The two sat on the slope of their first acquaintance, watching the sunset gradually setting in the distance...... and mountains.

"Ono, do you want to hear my story?" This was the first time Lu Ziqi talked about himself.

Mu Ye glanced at Lu Ziqi in surprise and nodded.

"Six years ago, I was brought here from the countryside wrapped like a doll in a gift box. Lu Ziqi's voice was low, which made Mu Ye's heart tremble.

"Before that, I had never thought I would be so pretty.

The man who sent me into the city told me that he and his woman were not my real parents, and that my parents were there, a thousand or ten thousand times richer than he was.

I looked in the direction he pointed, and all I saw was the dark and unsightly mountains, like a bloody mouth, which made people afraid.

I don't want to look at his red eyes, he doesn't want me anymore, who cares about him!"

Lu Ziqi's voice was soft and soft, and it couldn't fall to the ground, just like her hair tucked behind her ears, fluttering in the air.

Lu Ziqi was silent for a long time, so long that Mu Ye thought that her story was over, and a deep voice sounded again.

"I didn't want to leave, so I hid in a banyan tree hole one kilometer outside the village for two days and two nights.

The thought of not wanting to leave outweighed hunger, even more than life, and finally he was found by the adults of the village on his death.

I saw a familiar little face in a group of adults, and it was my best friend.

I thought it was a betrayal, and I didn't forgive him, I just remembered his miserable face when he looked at the ox cart as he left the village, and I was so proud that I didn't look back......"

Mu Ye looked at the cheeks that were so delicate that there was no trace of flaw, her expression was calm, but Mu Ye clearly felt that the hurt she had done to her companions as a child made her difficult to let go.

"It's true that a home in the city is much richer than a home in the country.

The man who sent me smiled humbly at the man in the city, and he didn't know where to put his hand.

During the meal, he was too strong to drink, and he actually made an exception to drink several glasses with the city man who was good at drinking.

Before leaving, the man in the city told me to drop him off, but I didn't say a word to him.

But when I was about to leave, I saw the two lines of muddy tears rolling down his dark face on the ox cart, and my heart was extremely painful, and I secretly scolded myself for being useless.

At that moment, I also remembered the woman from the country, who still had to take care of her own children at home, and she didn't come to see me off, but just helped me braid my hair for a long time before leaving.

She said, I won't have a chance to braid your hair in the future.

I said, I won't wear braids from then on......

And then ...... I'm right here.

It's been a long time, and those memories have gradually faded, so it's time to forget......"

At that moment, Mu Ye looked at her long hair that had been draped and had never been tied, and there was a little pain in her heart.

"My story is finished......" Lu Ziqi collected the sadness in his eyes, looked at Mu Ye Yingying and smiled: "What about yours?"

Mu Ye was silent for a moment and said softly.

……

Two people with different circumstances, but with the same loneliness, comfort each other and become each other's best friends, there is no one.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, and after another year, Lu Ziqi's family fell into the middle of the road, and the house not far from Mu Ye's house was sold by her parents...... Lu Ziqi followed her parents to other places.

On the day she was leaving, Mu Ye watched in amazement as the salutes in her home were carried into the car one by one.

Her parents looked at the little boy who was standing aside, with a pale face, sighed inaudibly, and said to Lu Ziqi: "Say goodbye to your best friend!"

Lu Ziqi struggled to put the suitcase into the trunk and walked in front of Mu Ye!

Fifteen-year-old she was a head taller than twelve-year-old Mu Ye, and she hugged Mu Ye hard.

Then he touched his head and said with a smile: "Thank you for sending me! Thank you for being with me for five years...... You will always be my best friend!"

Mu Ye's tears couldn't hold back any longer, and he threw himself into her arms, and said with a crying voice: "You too...... Take care and don't forget me. ”

After that, the two could only exchange letters.

She said she missed him and that he was her only friend.

Later, her sister died, by suicide.

Later, she dropped out of school and went to rock 'n' roll!

After several tosses, the contact between the two gradually decreased......

Lu Ziqi has also become a name in Mu Ye's mobile phone and an unforgettable childhood memory.

At this time, I heard her name again and heard that she was going to have a concert......

That's nice!
