Chapter 104: At the beginning
Yan Lingxue raised her head slightly, above the bus, there was still silence, only the sound of the vehicle rolling and constantly rubbing the ground, her eyes were panicked but overwhelmed: "I...... Can I get out of the car?"
The corners of the man's mouth showed a little helplessness, he looked at the dark night outside the window, a few rays of starlight continued to flicker in the sky, and said: "If you go down now, you won't be able to find your place at all, besides, this is a suburb, birds and beasts are rampant, and it is very unsafe." ”
Yan Lingxue hesitated, she once again focused her eyes on the scene outside the window, the window had been swallowed up by the night, there were no street lights, and the visibility was also extremely reduced, according to the man in front of her, she should have been far away from home, because she had heard her father say that it would take a long, long time to drive from their house to Changche City.
The man leaned lightly on the backrest, he put on the headphones, and his eyes were focused on the screen of the mobile phone, ignoring Yan Lingxue who was sitting on the side.
In the bus stop, Yan Linghao looked at the old street lamps set up on the side of the station, the street lamps were emitting dim light, an hour had passed, he was extremely anxious, in this hour, a total of three buses had been driven, and all three cars drove empty in front of his eyes, and he didn't even stop in this place for more.
After a while, two yellow lights appeared in the distance of the road, Yan Linghao looked in the direction where the lights flashed, he knew that this car was the last car of this shift.
Expectation mixed with great anxiety filled his heart, he didn't know, if he couldn't even see Yan Lingxue on the last train, what should it be.
A moment later, the car stopped at the bus stop, Yan Linghao looked up at the car, the car was bright, and the moment the door opened, his mother Jiang Shaohan stepped out of the car.
Jiang Shaohan dragged his tired body after a day of work, and when he saw Yan Linghao standing at the station, his shocked eyes suddenly appeared on her face, according to the current time, Yan Linghao should have dinner with Yan Lingxue at home, why is he here now......
"Ling Hao, why are you here?" Jiang Shaohan asked strangely, the sound of the bus starting swirled in their ears.
As soon as Yan Linghao gritted his teeth, tears couldn't help but slip down from his left eye: "Mother, Ling Xue is lost." ”
When the words fell, Jiang Shaohan was cold, and the bus had already driven away: "You...... Ling Hao, what did you say?"
Yan Linghao repeated the words just now: "Mother, Ling Xue is lost. ”
"How could it be...... Jiang Shaohan said in surprise, in the suburbs, the cold wind kept swirling, blowing on their bodies, "Tell my mother what the situation is." ”
Yan Linghao paused for a moment and said, "Mother, I came back just now and squeezed into the car, I obviously remembered that Ling Xue always followed behind me, but when I got home, I found that she was gone, Ling Xue didn't seem to get in the car at all." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Shaohan hesitated for a moment, she took Yan Linghao's hand, glanced at the pitch-black fields around her, her face suddenly became serious, and she immediately said, "Let's go, mother will take you back first." ”
"Good. Yan Linghao nodded, and followed Jiang Shaohan in the direction of home.
Along the way, it was always pitch black, without any trace of light source, all because Jiang Shaohan used the flashlight of her mobile phone to illuminate the road ahead.
Jiang Shaohan pulled Yan Lingxue's arm tightly, and his walking speed became faster and faster, as if he was afraid of something.
Yan Linghao was tightly pulled by Jiang Shaohan, looking at his mother's situation, his mind came to mind the day his father disappeared, and on that day, his mother was also so anxious.
Jiang Shaohan pulled Yan Linghao into the room, and just closed the door, the rain poured down suddenly, and the thunder and lightning continued to flicker in the air.
In the kitchen, for some reason, the faucet was turned on, and the water was constantly bubbling downward, and the sound of water surrounded the entire living room, dim mixed with a hint of weirdness.
"Mother......" Yan Linghao also felt that something was wrong, and he shouted.
Jiang Shaohan nodded, her face was serious, she lowered her head at Yan Linghao, who was shorter than herself, and comforted: "It's okay, I forgot to turn off the faucet when I went out." ”
"I ......" Yan Linghao just wanted to refute, but was interrupted by his mother Jiang Shaohan, who clearly remembered that he had not entered the kitchen.
"It's okay, Mother go shut it down. Jiang Shaohan said, then let go of Yan Linghao's hand, and after taking a few steps, she turned her head to Yan Linghao and said, "Ling Hao, you go and sit on the sofa and take a rest." ”
Yan Linghao didn't ask much, just nodded, walked towards the sofa on the side, and sat down.
Jiang Shaohan walked into the kitchen, she stepped forward and turned off the faucet, and suddenly, the kitchen light flickered.
Jiang Shaohan immediately said in a deep voice: "Who the hell is it, stop pretending to be a ghost." ”
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Shaohan walked out of the kitchen quickly, and when he walked to the living room, he hugged the flower pot placed on the TV counter, and suddenly, the whole kitchen returned to normal.
Yan Linghao looked at the strange Jiang Shaohan in front of her, and her heart was a little entangled, she didn't know what she should do.
The kitchen was bright again, and outside, the rain was still pouring down, and the roof was constantly leaking and dripping on the worn wooden floor.
Jiang Shaohan looked at the red lycoris flowers that bloomed slightly in the pot, her face was complicated, she still clearly remembered that the night before her husband's disappearance, he also specially explained to him that if something happened, he would move this pot of flowers there, at that time, she didn't know what her husband Mu Xuchen meant......
After a long time, Jiang Shaohan smiled helplessly and shook his head indifferently: "Sure enough, I thought that there was no such thing in the world, but I didn't expect to be bumped into by me." ”
"Mother......" Suddenly, a voice sounded in the kitchen.
Jiang Shaohan came to his senses and looked at the door, where Yan Linghao was standing at this moment.
"Mother, are you okay......" Yan Linghao looked at Jiang Shaohan in front of him with some concern, but he didn't dare to move forward.
Jiang Shaohan shook his head indifferently: "It's okay, Ling Hao, you still have to go to school tomorrow, go do your homework first, and your mother will cook for you." ”
"What about Mother, what about Ling Xue?" Yan Linghao asked, looking at his panicked mother in front of him with a puzzled expression.
Jiang Shaohan's face suddenly sank, she thought for a moment, then stepped forward and comforted Yan Linghao: "Ling Hao, don't worry, Ling Xue's mother will solve it." ”
The bus stopped in the downtown area of Changche City, and Yan Lingxue looked through the glass window at the bustling city outside the window, such prosperity was something she had never seen before.
The traffic is busy, the lights are bright, these are exactly the words depicted in the language book about the city, and she looked at everything in front of her curiously.
The man stood up, looked at Yan Lingxue in front of him, and said, "Little sister, you have nowhere to go." ”
Yan Lingxue turned her head, looked at the man in front of her who was not a few years older than herself, and nodded.
The man thought for a while and said, "My name is Lin Ziheng, you can go back with me first, there is no car to go to the countryside now, I will send you back tomorrow." ”
"But......" Worry appeared on Yan Lingxue's face, it would be nice if someone was willing to take her in now, but she didn't have a penny on her body to pay for such a fee.
Lin Ziheng saw the worry on Yan Lingxue's face: "I will give you money tomorrow, and when I meet you, it should be a kind of fate." ”
"You can't get out of the car. In the middle of the carriage, a loud shout sounded, and I saw the driver light a cigarette, crossed Erlang's legs, and shouted impatiently to the two people standing behind the carriage.
"Down. Yan Lingxue was taken aback and hurriedly said.
Lin Ziheng didn't care about the driver's words, but the corners of his mouth raised a slight angle, and he walked out of the car with Yan Lingxue, who was still panicked.
Yan Lingxue has been following Lin Ziheng closely, if she gets lost in this huge and prosperous city, she doesn't know what to do, so the only way now is to follow Lin Ziheng.
Lin Ziheng slowed down, turned his head to Yan Lingxue and said, "Do you want to eat something first?"
Yan Lingxue nodded, at this moment, she was already hungry.
"Let's go. With that, Lin Ziheng unexpectedly took Yan Lingxue's hand and walked forward.
Yan Lingxue was pulled, and along the way, there was a drizzle in the sky, and the traffic lights were densely erected on the huge road, and the vehicles flowed on the lane like flowing water.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Yan Lingxue was a little hesitant, why such a scene, she seemed to have seen it somewhere, as if it was planted in her memory, she was so familiar with the scene in front of her.
Along the way, she always followed Lin Ziheng, and finally, they came to a huge building, Lin Ziheng let go of Yan Lingxue's hand, took the mask from his pocket, and put it on gently, Yan Lingxue couldn't see her expression, but could know that at this moment, he had a slight smile in his words: "This is it." ”
Yan Lingxue looked up at the incomparably tall building in front of her, and the crowd was constantly filling around her.
"Young Master. Suddenly, a voice rang out, Yan Lingxue lowered her head, and a man in blue came over from the crowd.
Lin Ziheng nodded, but his tone became extremely serious: "This is my guest, you notify the kitchen first and start preparing dinner." ”
The man in blue put one hand on his chest, bent down slightly, and agreed extremely politely, "Yes." ”
After saying that, Lin Ziheng pulled Yan Lingxue and walked straight past the man in blue.
