Chapter 80 Under the Moonlight
Standing on the balcony on the tenth floor, holding on to the handrails, Yan Qi looked at the brightly lit night city, breathing in the cold wind full of chill, he sighed.
He took out a crumpled pack of cigarettes from his bosom, smoked one and lit it, and he felt much more comfortable.
I didn't drink much today, because he just came out of the hospital, he didn't want to lie back in the hospital so quickly, and the wine in City B was really not something he could control.
He overlooked the lights of ten thousand homes, and felt a trace of emotion in his heart for no reason, how long has it been since he had eaten at home, and often hunting those monsters in the middle of the night has become a kind of life and rest for Yan Qi and Bai Ran, no wonder even the uncle downstairs suspects that he is a gangster with no serious job.
Thinking of this, Yan Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps behind him, on such a cold day, there were not many people standing on the balcony blowing the cold wind like himself, he looked back and frowned.
"It's you. ”
Seeing Yan Qi's expression, the visitor was a little embarrassed, but he also walked to his side and said softly.
"It's going to catch a cold. ”
Yan Qi looked at the girl in front of him, a little funny, cold? Since that day ten years ago, he has almost never had any problems, colds...
I've almost forgotten what it feels like.
"Hmm. He nodded. "Then go back quickly. ”
The girl tugged at his clothes with her hands.
“... Do you hate me?"
Yuan Ye's words caught Yan Qi a little off guard, although every time he had dinner with someone, he would brag about how many sexual encounters he had and how many school-level ex-girlfriends.
But the real thing is that he is a person who is very bad at dealing with girls, especially beautiful girls...
Not to mention the girl in front of her, in addition to being beautiful and in good shape, she is also a daughter from a prominent family...
"Uh... No, no. He scratched his head, but found that although Yuan Ye said those words, he didn't have a sad expression on his face at all, but looked at him and smiled slightly.
"Well, I know, in that case, just talk to me. ”
Looking at Yuan Ye's laughing expression, Yan Qi thought of the little boy who was always crying in his dream, and involuntarily, he also smiled.
"Okay. He turned around and continued to look into the distance, no longer caring about Yuan Ye.
Yuan Ye was also standing beside him, but Yan Qi had a cigarette in his mouth, and the smoke blew down the wind to her face.
"Ahem..."
Yan Qi also seemed to sense something, and immediately left the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it at will.
"Sorry sorry, I forgot. Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong.
"Ahh You can't litter cigarette butts, right... Me, I'll take it and throw it away when I get back next time. ”
Seeing Yan Qi's hurried appearance, Yuan Ye couldn't hold back and smiled.
“... What are you laughing at?" Yan Qi looked at Yuan Ye with some strange eyes.
“... Well, because big brother, you're the same as in your dreams... I'm so happy..."
Yuan Ye's words made Yan Qi stunned... Big brother, she's still calling herself that.
Well.. How to say, she is 18 years old, she is 22 years old, there is nothing wrong with calling her brother, but how to say it...
There's a big one in front...
"Hmm... You've changed a lot. Yan Qi had no choice but to say the same.
This is also the truth, Yuan Ye in the dream is a little boy, in reality, he has become such a pretty and moving girl... It's a bit of a contrast.
"But then again, why are you a boy in your dreams?" Yan Qi asked the question he had been thinking about.
Yuan Ye didn't answer immediately, she turned her head and looked into the distance, and Yan Qi saw that the direction she was looking at seemed to be the edge of the city.
“... That is where our Yuan family's old mansion is. She held out her finger and pointed to a place in the distance that looked like a construction site.
“... The fire that year... Burn everything out... There was nothing left behind..."There was a slight sadness in Yuan Ye's tone, her hands gradually clenched, and her shoulders slowly began to tremble.
“... But I can't do anything, all I can do is cry, all I can do is shout... I kept wondering if I would have the strength to save my mother if I were a boy... Won't I be able to share a lot of things for my father..."
I see, that's why she will be a little boy in her dreams, and she has been blaming herself, not only closing her mother's bedroom, but also imagining herself as a boy...
Yan Qi looked at her trembling body, and suddenly raised his hand and placed it on top of her head.
“... Don't be silly. Yan Qi said in a flat tone.
The moment his hand was placed on the top of Yuan Ye's head, Yuan Ye stopped sobbing, she raised her head, and her beautiful face with tears looked particularly moving in the moonlight.
"Some things can't be done, just can't be done, whether you are a boy or a girl, you can't do it, since you can't do it, don't blame yourself, even if you blame yourself, it's useless, it's better to think about how to live a more wonderful life, so that your mother and father and your uncle are happy and proud of you. ”
With that, Yan Qi smiled.
"Look, isn't it good for you to do this, you studied abroad at the age of 18 and returned to China, and you have become a famous art designer. ”
Yuan Ye looked at Yan Qi and nodded slowly.
"Look, your brother Yan Qi doesn't know much art, but I also know that the house is very beautiful... Well, I don't have much culture, I don't know what those design elements are, but I just think it's beautiful, it's like... Like in a fairy tale..."
"Poof.."
Yuan Ye in front of him didn't seem to hold back and laughed.
“... Fairy tales... Little brother... Do you like to read the fairy tale books that girls read..."
Yan Qi suddenly blushed, he was actually laughed at by such a little girl.
He immediately cleared his throat.
"Hey, I can tell you, although I didn't go to college, I still studied!" he said as he was about to withdraw his hand from Yuan Ye's head, but suddenly, Yuan Ye's white and tender little hand grabbed his wrist.
“... Hmm, can you let it go a little longer?" seemed to her tone with some pleading.
Yan Qi couldn't say anything more, so he had to sigh and nod gently.
“... The moonlight tonight is so beautiful, it is too commensurate with the two of you. ”
Suddenly... Another voice sounded behind the two.
Yan Qi looked back, the owner of the voice was a tall woman in a white dress, her figure was extremely slender, she walked slowly to the side of the two of them, she didn't seem to care about these two people, she put her hand on the handrail of the balcony, looking at the moonlight in the distant sky.
“... Excuse me, did you bother the two of you?" the woman turned around, and Yan Qi realized that this woman... It's so beautiful that it doesn't look like a human, it's not the kind of... It can be described as beautiful, but a temperament... There was a real urge to fall under her skirt.
Even Yuan Ye was stunned when he saw this woman.
In this world, there is such a dusty, white and flawless woman like beautiful jade...
Time seems to be frozen in this moment.
After a long time, Yan Qi finally came back to his senses, he shook his head, a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said.
"Ahh Oh!?no, no, that, no, hehe.. Huh..."
The woman turned and looked at Yan Qi carefully, as if she were looking at a work of art.
“... Tonight's moonlight is perfect for a tryst. The woman looked at Yuan Ye again and laughed softly, her laughter was as melodious as a silver bell, and even Yuan Ye blushed a little and her heart was beating.
She has a kind of aristocratic temperament between her gestures, not only a local tycoon like Yan Qi, but even a girl like Yuan Ye, who has been a wealthy daughter since she was a child, is also a little ashamed.
“.. Oh!?no!we're not.. That one.. You misunderstood..."Yan Qi scratched his head and smirked.
"But—" The woman's words suddenly changed, and her expression showed a hint of sadness.
"No matter how beautiful the moonlight is... After all, it will be covered by dark clouds..."
Yan Qi was just about to ask what this meant, when he suddenly noticed that the moonlight around him was gradually dimming, and when he looked up, a dark cloud slowly obscured the light emitted by the moon.
“... Until the moonlight is swallowed up by darkness..."The woman still looked at Yan Qi and said slowly. “... People will discover that the real darkness hidden by the moonlight... Real despair. ”
Yan Qi felt that something was wrong.
The moonlight had completely disappeared, and the lights in the corridor were flickering on and off for some reason, and when she looked at the woman again, Yan Qi found that the white sacredness around her had long disappeared without a trace, and a black aura surrounded the woman's body, and her face became eerie and terrifying, looking straight at Yan Qi.
So Yan Qi pulled Yuan Ye behind him and looked at the strange woman in front of him vigilantly.
“... Who are you. Yan Qi said coldly.
The woman didn't reply, just smiled softly, and suddenly, her lips opened slightly, as if to say something...
Yan Qi suddenly felt a dizziness in his head...
Darkness will eventually overshadow the light... Moonlight will always be hidden...
... Dark...
Yan Qi's mind seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, and he recalled, remembered where he had heard this...
Dark... After all, it will cover the light...
Be careful of the Fang family...
Brother Yan..
"Ahh
Suddenly... The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed.
The moonlight shone on the land again, and Yan Qi was surprised to find that the woman had returned to her beautiful and noble appearance just now, only to see that she looked at herself in a little surprise and said.
“... What's wrong? Yes, sir... Did I do anything rude?"
Yan Qi shook his head vigorously, and when he looked at this woman again, there was no change...
Is it your own delusion...
When he turned around, he saw Yuan Ye also looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"Yan Qi, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Qi rubbed his head, a little headache.
“... It's okay, let's go back, I might have a cold. So he took Yuan Ye's hand, and without waiting for the other party to protest, he directly pulled her away from the balcony.
...
...... Yuan Ye looked back and saw that the woman was looking at them with a smile, still waving her hand at them.
“... When people discover the darkness hidden by the moonlight... They will also revere the moonlight... Do you worship the moon god..."After the woman said this, she sighed slightly, turned around and looked at the white and flawless white moonlight in the sky, and her face seemed to be full of helplessness and sadness.
