Chapter 31: Heading South

Tong Mu stood there, tears welling up in his eyes, thinking that it was a dream in front of him.

Hu Yiting held back his tears and took her into his arms, but he didn't know that Tong Mu had just walked around the ghost gate and was pulled back by himself.

Before, Hu Yiting felt depressed after dinner, so he went for a walk by Xiaojing Lake, and saw a back on the other side of the lake that was very similar to Tong Mu, he chased after him and wanted to see it carefully, but the figure disappeared. While he was wondering, he heard singing not far away.

"It's really a child pastor!" Hu Yiting pulled his legs and ran home, which was the scene just now.

Hu Yiting hugged Tong Mu tightly, stroked her head and back distressedly, and felt cold: "Why are you here? It's windy at night, aren't you cold wearing this? What are you crying about? Has someone bullied you? You sue me?"

Tong Mu didn't want to say a word when he was tired, the whole person snuggled up to Hu Yiting, and arched his head to the root of Hu Yiting's neck.

Hu Yiting tightly hugged Tong Mu's waist and back.

"Don't try it, it hurts. "Tong Mu said.

Hu Yiting noticed something unusual: "What's the matter? Where does it hurt? Where does it feel uncomfortable?"

Tong Mu replied, "How long have you been standing behind me?"

"I saw you across the lake and ran back. As soon as you sing, I know it's you, and I want to surprise you when you're done. ”

Tong Mu said with slight disgust: "I hate it." You know I'm here for you?"

Hu Yiting smiled and said: "If you don't come to me, can you still look for my parents? Well, the ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, and it is possible for you to come to my parents." ”

Tong Mu gently pushed Hu Yiting: "If you are not serious, I will ignore you." ”

Hu Yiting hurriedly said: "You must be singing and calling me downstairs because you don't know my house number, I can't even guess this, how can I be with you." ”

Tong Mu's heart was warm, and he clasped Hu Yiting's face with both hands and said, "Take me away, Hu Yiting, it's good anywhere, haven't you always wanted to go to Shenzhen? I'll go with you." ”

Hu Yiting was overjoyed when he heard this: "You agreed!?"

Tong Mu smiled and nodded, happy in his heart: "He really wants to take me away, so what else is there I can't bear? God let me see him tonight, probably just to let me live." ”

Hu Yiting held Tong Mu's face and looked at it carefully, and his thick eyebrows suddenly twisted: "Have you cried? What's wrong with the red spots on your face? Are you bleeding?"

Tong Mu shook his head: "Aunt beat me." ”

Hu Yiting's eyes widened, and he held Tong Mu's arm with both hands: "Why did she beat you." ”

"Tap, it hurts. ”

Hu Yiting had a calm face and rolled up the sleeve of Tong Mu's right hand.

Even in the moonlight, I could clearly see the seven or eight bulging blood marks on my arms, which were broken in some places, sticky and oozing blood.

Hu Yiting's tears couldn't help but flow, and he roared: "Why did she beat you like this, is she still human!

Hu Yiting scolded while holding Tong Mu's elbow distressedly, looking at those wounds, wanting to rub but afraid that Tong Mu would hurt, and not rubbing but afraid that Tong Mu would still hurt. He felt very uncomfortable, and he wished that he had suffered this beating for Tong Mu.

Tong Mu wanted to change the topic and asked Hu Yiting not to feel sorry for himself, so he quickly rolled down his sleeves with pain: "Don't cry, why do you always cry as a big man." You sue me, why are you crying when you stood behind me just now?"

Hu Yiting held her hand and said, "I came to me because I was happy, I knew that you loved me, and I shed tears unconsciously." It's not like now, I'm angry now!"

Tong Mu wiped away the tears on Hu Yiting's face with his sleeve, but he couldn't help but cry again.

"You wait for me, I'll go home and get some money to take you to the hospital. ”

"No, I'll go back right away. Tong Mu was a little panicked: "I've been out for a long time, and if I don't go back, I'll be beaten by my aunt again." ”

Hu Yiting's face flushed angrily: "No! I'm going back with you tonight! I want to ask that old thing, how can he be so vicious! If she doesn't apologize to you, I'll be done with her!"

Tong Mu's face sank: "Hu Yiting, you want to force me to death to be satisfied." ”

Hu Yiting looked at Tong Mu, and his mind was racing quickly: "I said that I would protect her and not let her suffer a little more...... At noon she told me that she wanted me to take her away, and that's what happened...... If I let her go back like this, God knows how she's going to be tortured......"

Hu Yiting tightly grabbed Tong Mu's two hands and put them on his chest.

"Tong Mu, listen to me, let's leave tonight and go to Shenzhen. ”

Tong Mu looked at Hu Yiting in surprise: "You are crazy, you are about to take the high school entrance examination, you don't study?"

"The high school entrance examination is not until July, and it's still early. I'm going to take you to Shenzhen for an interview now, and if you're successful, you'll be able to earn money now, and you'll be financially independent. I also have a design drawing, and I want to go there and find an opportunity to do it. Besides, I beat Guo Dapeng today, so it's good to go out to avoid the limelight for a few days. ”

Tong Mu bit his lip and looked at Hu Yiting quietly.

When she thought of being able to leave Hushan and her aunt's house, she was ten thousand willing. But when graduation was approaching, she skipped school and ran away, and she didn't know how the school would punish her.

"Do you still have the opportunity to send me to the Normal University? But even if the school guarantees me in the future, will my aunt pay for my tuition? Even if my aunt pays for it, do I really want to live like this for another three years?"

Tong Mu thought again: "If you don't go out and hide, Hu Yiting will be sought revenge, and I can't let him be beaten for me." ”

Thinking that Hu Yiting might be in danger, Tong Mu finally made up his mind.

"Tonight?"

A smile finally appeared on Hu Yiting's face: "Just tonight, you wait for me for a while." ”

After speaking, Hu Yiting rushed upstairs, entered the bedroom and emptied his schoolbag, stuffed his thick stack of design drawings into it, and took two pairs of underwear and two pairs of socks.

After doing this, Hu Yiting walked into the living room, and when he saw that his parents were watching TV, he walked into their bedroom with confidence, opened the bedside table drawer where his mother usually put money, and put all the more than 100 yuan banknotes in his pocket.

Mother Bai Ping saw Hu Yiting coming out of the big house and asked, "Hu Yiting, what are you doing?"

"I'm looking for textbooks. ”

"Why are your textbooks in my room, go and look for them in your room. ”

Hu Yiting nodded and said, "Mom, I went to Zhang Baiqi's house for the night to spend the night, his parents were on a business trip, and he asked me to accompany him at night." ”

"And what are you going to have for breakfast tomorrow?"

"Buy and eat. ”

"Wait, I'll get you the money. ”

Hu Yiting was taken aback: "No, Zhang Baiqi is in for a treat." ”

After speaking, Hu Yiting hurriedly went back to the room, picked up his schoolbag, and ran out of the house in three steps and two steps.

When Hu Yiting arrived downstairs, he immediately took Tong Mu and ran out, crossing the lakeside path until he reached the edge of the road.

Tong Mu asked uneasily: "Hu Yiting, are we too reckless like this?"

Hu Yiting held her hand and said, "I only regret that when you said you would let me take you away at noon, you didn't act immediately." ”

"Do you think the audio-visual publishing house over there can take a fancy to me? Isn't singing there the same as going to work?"

Hu Yiting calmly comforted her and said: "Don't worry so much, I have me, unless I die, no one will want to hurt you in the future." ”

Tong Mu gradually calmed down and decided to resign herself to fate, and Hu Yiting was her heaven.

"Where are we going now?" she asked.

"Go find Zhang Baiqi, I don't have enough money, so I'll borrow some from him. ”

So, Tong Mu followed Hu Yiting and took a bus to the compound of the Commercial Bureau.

Hu Yiting did not go directly to find Zhang Baiqi, but called Zhang Baiqi from the communication room at the entrance of the community.

Hu Yiting only briefly explained the situation, which startled Zhang Baiqi.

Zhang Baiqi suppressed his voice and asked on the phone: "You want to run away from home?"

"Even if it is, I don't have enough money, a ticket to Shenzhen costs nearly 150, you help me find a way, I know you have a New Year's money."

Zhang Baiqi was silent on the other end of the phone for five seconds before saying, "You are waiting for me at the door." He hung up the phone.

Just a few minutes after hanging up the phone, Hu Yiting and Tong Mu saw Zhang Baiqi, and saw him running all the way in fat pajamas and pajamas.

Zhang Baiqi greeted Tong Mu with a smile, took out five hundred-yuan bills and some change from his pocket and handed them to Hu Yiting and said, "You take this money first." Don't go yet, I still have a way. ”

Hu Yiting nodded.

Zhang Baiqi explained to Tong Mu with a smile: "My dad just went to sleep, my mom is still watching TV, and when she sleeps, I can start." ”

After speaking, he said to Hu Yiting again: "Slut, do you really want to leave?"

Hu Yiting saw his reluctant expression, and said with a smile: "It's not that I won't come back, I estimate that this trip will be a week, at most half a month." I'll call you after I buy a ticket, and when you wait for me to leave, I'll tell my parents and ask them to take me a day off. ”

"Fuck! you want me to wipe my ass again, and this time your mother has to beat me to death. ”

"By the way, you can also say hello to the head teacher of the child herd and ask for a leave. ”

Zhang Baiqi said with a sad face: "Yes, I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman." You kid go this time, if you can't help Tong Mu sign a record contract, I will kick you to death when I come back. ”

The three of them stood excitedly and chatted for a while before Zhang Baiqi went back.

After waiting for about an hour, Zhang Baiqi ran back again, this time with two Chinese cigarettes under his arm.

Hu Yiting knew that Zhang Baiqi had been released this time, he was silent and did not speak, and he was secretly moved in his heart.

The three of them came to a cigarette shop at the corner of the street, and only after talking about it did they get the shopkeeper to agree to the price of Wu Baiyuan and accept it.

Before leaving, the shopkeeper said uneasily: "If it is stolen, I will not spare you." ”

Zhang Baiqi became angry and scolded: "Don't bring it back to me, I'll sell it to others!" The shopkeeper shut up.

Next, Zhang Baiqi insisted on sending the two to the train station, and the three of them took a taxi and came to Hushan Railway Station.

Coming out of the ticket hall, the three of them stood on the square in front of the station, and the night breeze was blowing, making them shiver a little.

"Idiot, go back, the train doesn't leave until half past twelve at night. ”

"I'll get you in the car. Zhang Baiqi was a little stubborn.

Hu Yiting was helpless and no longer persuaded him, and the three of them entered the waiting room and sat side by side.

"Hu Yiting, call me when you arrive, keep in touch every day, come back quickly when you have no money, don't hold on. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Tong Mu, this kid is dead-eyed, and his temper is still very urgent, you have to persuade him if there is anything. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Baiqi was a little sad, and his voice was lowered: "Alas, I really envy you two, just leave." ”

Hu Yiting smiled, his expression full of confidence.

On the side, the boy grabbed his arm tightly, closed his eyes and leaned on his shoulder, determined not to think about anything else.
