Chapter 168: Dark Memories
"Well, why do you say that? I think the light is better, you see how comfortable the sun is, but at night when it is dark, it feels very cold and helpless. That's why I like the light even more. Do you like the dark more?" Guan Wanwan looked at Jin Chen in confusion.
Jin Chen nodded, then smiled. "Everyone's experience is different, and I can understand that you like the light, but for me I like the darkness more. Jin Chen said indifferently to Guan Wanwan.
Guan Wanwan nodded as if she didn't understand. "It's okay, now you can watch the sun with me, and I can enjoy the darkness with you at night. Isn't that the same?"
Jin Chen heard Guan Wanwan say this, and then he was stunned for a moment, and looked at Guan Wanwan with a very complicated eye.
Guan Wanwan saw Jin Chen's appearance, and then laughed, "Okay." Watch this sunset well now, or you will waste such a good sunset, you say no. Guan Wanwan pointed to the sunset in the distance, and then said to Jin Chen.
Jin Chen pursed his lips, and then said to Guan Wanwan with a smile: "Okay." Let's enjoy the sunset now. β
The two of them sat on the beach, the setting sun came from afar, and then through the shadow of the leaves fell on the beach, like broken stars sprinkled on the ground, it was really beautiful. Guan Wanwan looked at this sunset, as if something came to mind, but she was quickly attracted by other scenery, and that fleeting memory slowly sank.
"We'll come back tomorrow to see the sunset. The sun had completely set, and only a little light shone on the ground, and then the two of them walked back together in the direction of the villa.
"Today is a really meaningful day, such a day flies by so fast. Guan Wanwan said to Jin Chen. Jin Chen held Guan Wanwan's hand, and then slowly walked forward, the two of them were talking and laughing, and the sea breeze floated far away with the laughter of the two people.
"Are you back? I've got dinner ready. The aunt saw the two people coming back, and then said with a smile.
"I'm really a little hungry!" Guan Wanwan heard that her aunt had prepared dinner, and then hurried to the table.
"These dishes are my favorites, especially this yellow stewed tofu. Guan Wanwan was a little surprised, and then sat down and beckoned the two of them to come over for dinner.
After eating, several people went back to their rooms to get ready to rest. Guan Wanwan was also tired, and then he went to bed after washing up. Jin Chen asked Guan Wanwan to take the medicine and then returned to his room.
"Ding, ding, ding. "It's Jin Chen's phone.
"Huh?" Jin Chen picked it up, it was Pei Ruo.
"That's ready, and you'll be able to do it when you get back. Pei Ruo said to Jin Chen.
"Well, I'll be back in a few days, what's the situation there?" Jin Chen asked Pei Ruo.
"Wang Tianhua hasn't figured out the situation yet, so there is no action yet, and G City has already dealt with it, but Lin Bosheng seems to have been checking the whereabouts of Guan Wanwan, so there are still some obstacles to our plan. β
"Then don't worry about him first, I'll let you find someone......" Jin Chen said to Pei Ruo, and then hung up the phone.
After Jin Chen answered Pei Ruo's call, he walked to the rooftop, at this time the sky was completely dark, and only a little starlight was twinkling in the sky.
"There is light in the dark. Jin Chen looked at the faint light in the sky, and then muttered to himself.
"Ah Chen, what do you see that?" seemed to go back to that dark time.
Jin Chen opened his eyes and seemed to see a pile of fire in a vague way.
"Did we escape?" Jin Chen's head ached, as if he had been hit by something, and then there was blood all over his body.
"Don't speak. We're in a cave right now, and I don't think they'll be able to find it that sooner, so we'll take care of our injuries and then get out. We just got something to eat, you get up. A boy said to Jin Chen.
Jin Chen nodded, then gritted his teeth and crawled up, the wound was torn because of the movement, but Jin Chen couldn't care about this, because if he didn't add a little food, maybe a few of them would starve to death here.
"Eat fast. "It's just some unripe fruit, but it's a lifesaver for them.
Jin Chen gritted his teeth and ate a little, and then briefly treated the wound. That's when it stopped.
"There's nothing to do with your wounds. "Jin Chen happened to be severely beaten when he ran out, so his body is very weak now, and many wounds are bleeding.
"It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days anyway. Jin Chen tore his clothes open, then pressed heavily on the wound, tied a knot, and stopped the snow first.
"We can't stay here for long. It's not huge, and they're sure to find it in a little search, so we'll probably be gone in a few hours. Now that everyone has a good rest, I'll go out and have a look. Another boy said.
"Hmm. A few others nodded.
After the boy went out, Jin Chen whispered a few words to another boy.
"No, it won't. How could he ....." The man's face was a little shocked and felt incredulous.
"But his behavior just now is really strange, I think this place is not very safe now, let's go. Jin Chen stood up, wanting to leave this place immediately.
"No, Cuong won't do this to us. A few more said.
Jin Chen glanced at them coldly, although he still wanted to say something, but until they didn't believe it, he stopped talking.
"Let's go. Jin Chen said to the boy. Pei Ruo also stood up, and then wanted to go with them. "Wherever you go, I will go. β
"Good. "Three people walked out of the cave, and two or three people remained in the cave.
"Do you think Cuong is really going to betray us?" said the boy.
"I don't know. Pei Ruo shook his head.
Jin Chen didn't have time to say more, and hurriedly motioned for them to go in the opposite direction, hoping to escape before they arrived. When he left, Jin Chen glanced back again, and then left immediately.
Not far away, there was a rustling sound, as if it was footsteps. The three of them hurriedly found a dense jungle to get into, not caring that the wounds on their bodies would be cut by these sharp branches. Sure enough, as soon as the three of them hid, they saw Cuong walking towards the cave with a bunch of people.
"Let's go. Jin Chen said to the other two, "Now while they are walking to that place, let's hurry to the dock by the sea." β
"Good. They were also shocked by what happened just now, they didn't expect Ah Qiang to really do this, but now is not the time to be shocked, the three of them supported each other, and everyone had wounds on their bodies, but now they didn't care about this, and used all their strength to walk towards the place where the dock by the sea was.
"Bang bang bang. After a while, several gunshots rang out from not far away.
"Theyβ" Pei Ruo said.
"Remember today, one day I will avenge them. Jin Chen's eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was secretly occupied by revenge.
"I didn't expect that the so-called friendship was such a fragile thing. Another boy whispered.
"There are only friends with interests in the world, and now we are only together because we are entangled in interests, which is the most stable deal. Jin Chen coldly pierced the so-called veil.
"Let's go. Don't stay here any longer. β
"Bang bang. "Suddenly it started raining. The raindrops hit Jin Chen's face, making him come out of his memories.
"So much time has passed. I didn't expect to remember it so clearly. Jin Chen said to himself. Then look at a place where those people are buried.
"Rest in peace, I avenge you. They're all dead. Jin Chen said secretly, then wiped the water stains on his face and returned to the room. He sat on the bed for a while, then went out the door again and came to Guan Wanwan's room. Guan Wanwan was already asleep, but her sleep was not very good, Jin Chen walked in gently, and then tucked the quilt for her. Jin Chen quietly looked at Guan Wanwan's sleeping face, and then a thought flashed in his heart: Is it the right thing to keep her by his side? If she remembers everything one day, will she hate me? But soon Jin Chen left this thought behind. It has been a long time since there has been sunlight in his dark world, but now he must not give up this ray of sunshine, even if he pays more, he must keep this ray of sunshine by his side, no matter what.
Jin Chen exited Guan Wanwan's room, and then returned to his room. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sea breeze was drifting in through the windows that had not yet been connected, with a little coolness of rain. The stars in the sky were gone, hidden in the dark clouds, and then there was darkness and the sound of rain.
"There's nothing wrong with the sunshine. Jin Chen lay on the bed, thinking of the scene when he and Guan Wanwan went to watch the sunset today, and then said a word to himself, closed his eyes, and fell asleep deeply.
The smell of sunshine...... Maybe that's what it looks like.
The people in the villa were already asleep, but the aunt was still awake. She thought about what happened between Guan Wanwan and Jin Chen. Although Jin Chen was not her child, his mother and her used to be very good friends, so to a certain extent, she also watched Jin Chen grow up until that incident happened.
"If Ah Chen can really find his own happiness, then Ah Ru should rest in peace in the Heavenly Spirit. The aunt took out a pocket watch from her drawer, on which was a photo of her and Aru, who were still girls at the time, smiling happily.
"Hey. I don't know what will happen in the future. I don't know if this girl will hurt Ah Chen. "Auntie always felt a little worried, but she couldn't do anything now, she could only worry secretly.
Outside the villa, the wind and rain were still strong, and the waves were endlessly washing over the reef by the sea.
