Chapter 39: The Paranoid Oath
It was getting late, it was not the day of sacrifice, and there were very few people in the cemetery who came to worship.
In a corner of the cemetery, Z Bao is still sitting on the ground, leaning on He Yu's cold tombstone and reluctant to leave, the sky is getting dark, and the sudden drop in temperature that is about to fall into the evening always makes people feel cold, Zheng Lihua, who was waiting in the car outside the cemetery, did not want Z Bao to get sick again, and could no longer sit still, so she got off the car and went to the cemetery to find Z Bao.
There was no one in the first place, Zheng Lihua raised her eyes and saw Z Bao who was sitting on the ground leaning on the tombstone, she took three steps and made two steps, hurriedly stepped forward, squatted down and persuaded:
"Obedient, Xiaoqin, it's getting dark, is it okay to go back with Aunt Zheng?" Z Bao still didn't speak, she spoke again: "Since you treat me as your family, you just listen to Aunt Zheng's advice, don't be sad and break your body, you live well, it is the best comfort to Mr." ”
Z Bao, who was leaning on He Yu's tombstone, didn't seem to hear it, holding the hard and cold stone stupidly, humming the ballad that He Yu always sang to her before: "Lulu Lu Duo ~ Lu Lu Duo...... His face was full of tears, but his eyes were empty.
"Alas-" Zheng Lihua was helpless, took out the prepared coat and put it on her.
"Xiaoqin, I won't bother you, you can talk to Mr. and talk to him, I'll be waiting for you in the car outside the cemetery. ”
Z Bao did not answer.
After she left, Z Bao raised his head and looked at the sunset in the distance, smiled and whispered: "Xiaoyu, don't sleep, the sunset, get up and watch the stars with me." ”
“……”
However, she was destined not to wait for her little fish to reply.
After a long time, the sky was completely dark, and one star after another also appeared, Z Bao kept looking at the starry sky above her head, and the shining stars were shining in her eyes.
This time
It was the first time she and He Yu really sat together and looked at the stars.
The difference is that he used to accompany him to look at the stars, but this time she was the one who accompanied him.
Z Bao couldn't help but wonder if He Yu felt unprecedented peace of mind and satisfaction like her today when she was with her as cold as him today in the past many days.
Thankfully, in the end, she found him, the unique little fish.
She rested her head on the tombstone beside her, her face sad and joyless.
In such a quiet night, even the dark clouds and raindrops have to come to join in the fun, and the stars that were visible just now were quickly covered by the dark clouds, and after a while, the thunder was loud, and I saw Zheng Lihua hurriedly running towards her, holding an umbrella in her hand.
"Xiaoqin, it's about to rain, listen to Aunt Zheng, let's go back, okay, next time you come to see Mr., okay?"
As she spoke, the raindrops fell in large pieces, Zheng Lihua hurriedly propped up the umbrella in her hand, and regardless of the fact that half of her body was still outside the umbrella, she leaned over to help Z Bao who was sitting on the ground hold the umbrella.
Only then did Z Bao, who was sitting on the ground, notice the dust and holes in her pants at her knees, as well as the bleeding wounds.
"Aunt Zheng, did you fall when you ran over just now?" Z Bao looked up at Zheng Lihua, who was leaning over and holding an umbrella for herself.
She smiled embarrassedly and replied, "I'm old, I didn't see the road clearly, there are many stairs here, and I accidentally fell down, but don't worry, Xiaoqin, Aunt Zheng is fine." ”
Z Bao was helpless, stood up, held Zheng Lihua who was holding an umbrella for himself with one hand, and couldn't help but reproach softly: "Why are you so careless, isn't it just a little rain? ”
"Then what's going on, I promised my husband, to take care of you, and I will definitely do it. ”
"You-" Z Bao was angry, but she didn't know what to say Zheng Lihua, so she had to take the umbrella in her hand and compromised: "Okay, okay, I'll go back with you." ”
She no longer wants to let the people around her who care about her innocently suffer because of herself. Without He Yu, she must be strong alone.
"That's good, that's good. That Xiaoqin, let's hurry up, while the rain hasn't fallen yet. Zheng Lihua smiled with relief.
"Well, good. ”
She did fall a little badly, her pants were torn, and the wound was bleeding, Z Bao carefully supported her, and she could only limp towards the cemetery gate.
"You're really, so serious, and you're still holding on to give me an umbrella. Z Bao's tone was hard to hide the reproach.
"This little injury is nothing, go back and get some medicine and you'll be fine. Zheng Lihua smiled and patted Z Bao holding her hand, she knew that Z Bao was a manifestation of caring about herself, and after thinking for a while, she spoke again: "Mr. told me not to let you remember him before, presumably I also hope that you can live a healthy and happy life." ”
Z Bao buried his head and did not say a word.
"So, Xiaoqin, if you always indulge in the old days, instead of living a good life, look at the world that Mr. wants you to see, wouldn't it be a disappointing piece of his hard work?"
Zheng Lihua saw that she was still buried in her head and didn't speak, so she also looked down at her, but found that Z Bao had already burst into tears, she raised her head and cried helplessly and fearfully: "But there is no him here, there is no him everywhere in this world, why did he leave as soon as I came here, leaving me here alone, why?"
Z Bao couldn't stop sobbing, Zheng Lihua kept wiping her tears, hugged her head and comforted: "Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin is not alone, Xiaoqin and me, as long as we Xiaoqin need it, Aunt Zheng will always be by your side." ”
She stroked the head of Z Bao in her arms, even if it is an autistic person like Z Bao, there will be times when they are afraid of helplessness, even if sometimes they seem so cold, so unreasonable, but they will also express it in their own way, to love others, to live.
Every autistic person will have his own unique way of letting him relax, Z Bao is no exception, whenever she is emotional, she will continue to hurt herself, as if this can make her wake up in pain, in addition to this, only her mother Lin Hui often sang to her that ballad can comfort her.
After Lin Hui left, every time He Yu held the excited Z Bao, humming tirelessly in her ear, after he left, Zheng Lihua also learned this ballad, gently stroked her head, opened her lips and hummed: "Lulu Doo ~ Lu Dodo ......"
When Z Bao finally calmed down, a long time had passed, Zheng Lihua and Z Bao snuggled up to each other and stumbled towards the gate of the cemetery. The rain still did not mean to stop, but it was getting heavier and heavier, and the "popping tower" smashed on the umbrella, and the surroundings were pitch black, and it seemed to be very quiet, but the sound of the rain falling was so noisy.
The road was slippery on a rainy day, and the two of them cautiously walked to the gate under the weak light of the mobile phone, and when the two walked to the side of the car, a man got out of the car, without an umbrella in his hand, and opened the door for them in the heavy rain.
This man is not the son of Zheng Lihua, Fang Fanyang, who sent them to Z Bao before. Z Bao didn't wonder who he was, and when the three of them got into the car, the strange man began to introduce himself: "Z Bao, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you remember me? I'm Shen Wei." ”
Z Bao raised his eyes and glanced at him, then lowered his head indifferently and did not answer.
This man had just gotten out of the car to open the door for the two of them when he was drenched in the rain, his body was obviously wet, the air was filled with the smell of rain and the smell of his body, his eyebrows and eyes, like He Yu, but he was not after all.
Xu knew that Z Bao didn't want to deal with him, so Shen Wei didn't say anything more.
After a short silence in the car, Zheng Lihua reached out to take a tissue and wipe the raindrops on her body for Z Bao and herself, but she didn't think that as soon as her hand stretched out, someone handed her a whole box of tissues. She smiled politely at Shen Wei, who handed her tissues, and said politely, "Thank you, Mr. Shen." ”
It seems that he is always paying attention to Z Bao's every move, Zheng Lihua remembered the appearance of a few years ago when he threatened that he still had a son and shouted to chop off his son's hand, she felt that she was not alone with the cautious young man in front of her.
"It's fine. Shen Wei replied with a smile, but his eyes did not leave Z Bao for a moment.
Zheng Lihua would smile wryly, turn around and pull out a tissue to help Z Bao wipe it, but Z Bao took the tissue she handed over, wiped the raindrops on his body by himself, and after wiping it, he threw the tissue into the garbage bag in the car, and kept looking out the window silently and did not speak.
So no one spoke along the way.
Z Bao and his party soon returned to the home where Z Bao and He Yu had lived for three years.
Shen Wei and Fang Fanyang refused to leave after carrying their luggage together, but Z Bao's face was already impatient, she didn't want so many irrelevant people to exist in this family.
"Thank you both, I'm a little tired and want to rest, so I won't accompany you. As soon as the words fell, Z Bao got up and prepared to send off the guests.
Shen Wei spoke: "Z Bao, I'm sorry for you and He Yu. ”
"Why do you call me 'Z Bao', and why are you sorry for me and He Yu?" Z Bao didn't look at him, just looked up at the starry sky that He Yu had created for her on the ceiling above his head.
"I ......" For a while, Shen Wei didn't know how to speak: "Back then, it was I who wanted to lure you back, so I designed the man who failed to invest in me to get a photo of me getting intimate with you, I thought that according to He Yu's character, he would definitely try to avoid you being exposed too much in the media's field of vision." ”
"So, he will definitely take me back to China, right?" Z Bao suddenly interjected, Shen Wei looked at her, but she still maintained her previous posture, looking up at the starry sky, her pale side face looked so repulsive thousands of miles away.
"Yes. Shen Wei was not afraid to admit his desires, he laughed at himself again: "I can't contact you anywhere, He Yu is deliberately wary of me, I don't know your address in the United States, and I don't know where that man got your address, heh, I thought you would definitely come back, so I didn't ask him more about your address in the United States......"
"You didn't expect that he didn't bring me back. Even Z Bao himself couldn't understand why he wanted to leave himself alone in the United States.
"I didn't expect that he didn't take you back to China, and he came back alone, and he lost his life because of it, and I didn't expect it, because I thought you would come back back and missed your time for three years......" Shen Wei smiled helplessly.
"So, how are you going to compensate me?" Z Bao turned his head to look at the strange man in front of him, and asked with an expressionless face: "How do you compensate me for a unique one in the world?"
Looking at Z Bao's unwavering, backwater-like eyes, Shen Wei opened his mouth and said in an almost begging tone: "Let me take care of you for him, okay?"
“……”
Z Bao didn't answer him, and looked up at the starry sky above him again.
"How will you forgive me?" Shen Wei walked over and knelt at her feet.
“……”
Z Bao still didn't answer.
"Okay, good ......" He laughed wildly, looked around, and saw the fruit knife on the coffee table, before Zheng Lihua and Fang Fanyang could react, they picked it up and slashed off the finger of their left ring finger with a swing of the knife.
"Ahh
Zheng Lihua on the side screamed in fright. Even Fang Fanyang had long known that Shen Wei was a madman, but even he didn't expect Shen Wei to be so ruthless.
Z Bao, who was closest to Shen Wei, still looked out of the way.
Shen Wei covered his injured left ring finger, blood couldn't stop oozing from his fingers, his face was pale, there were beads of sweat on his forehead, and he said in a trembling voice: "I, Shen Wei, cut off my ring finger today to prove my vow not to marry for the rest of my life, I will take care of you for the rest of your life." ”
Z Bao looked at him condescendingly, looked at him with pity for a while, and said indifferently: "Whatever you want." ”
Shen Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, she didn't refuse in the end.
Looking at the back of Z Bao turning upstairs, Shen Wei smiled happily, like a child who got candy.
Fang Fanyang wanted him to go to the hospital to get the severed finger back, but he refused, just asked Zheng Lihua to do a simple bandage for himself and left.
This is the proof of his oath to Z Bao, and Shen Wei knows that if it weren't for his paranoid behavior today, Z Bao would definitely not agree.
Shen Wei was very glad that at least the last person to accompany her was him.
And time is always the best medicine and weapon.
