Chapter 27: Xu Nan's Secret
For people like Chen Tian, Ruizi naturally understands their temper, and seeing that Chen Tian's attitude is so decisive, it is inconvenient to say anything more.
After completing the entry procedures for the newcomer, it was already more than two o'clock in the evening, and Chen Tian hurriedly rushed to Xu Nan's house after explaining a few words.
Since entering the night bar, he has been living in Xu Nan's house, and more than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and in the past few days, Chen Tian has found a place to live in private, planning to pack up his things and move out tonight.
Back at home, Xu Nan's room didn't turn on the light, and he shouldn't have come back yet, Chen Tian just cleaned up his things when he returned to the room for a while, and suddenly heard a voice coming from Xu Nan's room.
The voice was low, as if the speaker was deliberately lowering his voice.
Chen Tian became vigilant for a moment, and turned off the light in the room with his backhand, his identity has been exposed now, plus those thorns offended by the night bar, now any trouble may find his head, it is better to be careful in everything.
He listened quietly for a while, and the sound was indeed coming from Xu Nan's room, but it was too vague for Chen Tian to hear clearly.
Chen Tian walked out of the door of the room lightly, quietly walked down the stairs to the second floor, and once again confirmed that Xu Nan's room was indeed not lit!
Thief? Or are you looking for trouble?!
Chen Tian suppressed his breath, slowly touched the wall in the dark, and after a while, he arrived at the door of Xu Nan's room and turned his ear sideways.
"There's no way I'm going to spare him. ”
Chen Tian was taken aback, this was actually Xu Nan's voice?!
What is she doing in the house alone? Why don't you turn on the lights? Could it be that she wants to avoid Chen Tian?
Listening to the voice, it looks like Xu Nan is talking to someone on the phone, and from the cold tone, it shouldn't be the person Xu Nan likes on the other end of the phone.
"You don't need to say it, I have suffered so much and suffered so much in the mountain city for so many years, and I have suffered so many grievances, for this purpose!"
Xu Nan's voice was a little louder, as if there was an irrepressible anger in his heart that wanted to explode.
Chen Tian didn't know what to do all of a sudden, it stands to reason that the phone call Xu Nan is making now is her privacy, Chen Tian shouldn't eavesdrop here, but on the other hand, there are too many problems to face in the night bar now, the forces of all parties are complicated, and any decision must be carefully considered, at least in Chen Tian's opinion, Xu Nan's emotions are a little excited now, and it is not suitable to make any major decisions.
After thinking about it, in order not to let Xu Nan suffer, Chen Tiansi decided to continue to hide here and listen to what Xu Nan was talking about on the phone.
"Unattainable? Hehe, let's try it. ”
Listening to the voice, Xu Nan seemed to have reached the critical point of the outbreak, and Chen Tian was almost certain that if the person on the other end of the phone said one more word that made her furious, Xu Nan would even throw the phone away.
However, who is she talking about unattainable? She is a woman, who has worked hard in the mountain city for so many years, and listening to the words on the phone just now, it seems that she has some important plan to do?
Chen Tian leaned forward again, but Xu Nan seemed to have hung up the phone in the bedroom, Chen Tian just wanted to retreat, and with a "bang", Xu Nan suddenly turned on the bedroom light!
"Who?!"
As soon as the lights in the bedroom and corridor were turned on, Chen Tian's shadow immediately appeared at the door, and then he immediately heard Xu Nan's questioning voice in the room!
"Sister Nan, it's me..." Chen Tian walked out from behind the wall in embarrassment, and saw Xu Nan holding a cigarette in his hand, leaning against the window, looking at the phone in his hand in a daze.
She wore a banquet dress today, which was particularly beautiful, probably because of the wine, Xu Nan's face was slightly red, although she painted a heavy makeup, Chen Tian was still keenly aware that Xu Nan had cried!
For some reason, he suddenly felt distressed, and asked anxiously, "Nan, Sister Nan, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing. Xu Nan wiped his eyes pretending to be nothing, but he didn't want to wipe all the eyeliner.
Chen Tian didn't know whether to continue to ask, to be honest, he felt very strange about Xu Nan, on the one hand, Xu Nan was his benefactor, if it weren't for her, it is estimated that he would have starved to death in the mountain city, on the other hand, Xu Nan was always silently stimulating his desire to protect, he couldn't see Xu Nan being wronged, let alone Xu Nan crying!
Chen Tian took a deep breath and said, "Sister Nan, I was outside just now and heard you calling. ”
Xu Nan took a puff of cigarette and raised his eyes to look at Chen Tian: "What did you hear?"
"It's nothing, I just heard a rough idea..."Chen Tian didn't know what to say.
The atmosphere became a little awkward for a while, Chen Tian stood there and didn't know where to put his hands, Xu Nan smoked quietly, a slender lady's cigarette quickly burned out, Xu Nan pressed the cigarette butt out in the ashtray on the windowsill, looked up and asked Chen Tian: "Do you want to know?"
Chen Tian didn't know whether to nod or shake his head, he suddenly felt that what Xu Nan said on the phone just now might have nothing to do with the night bar.
Xu Nan smiled bitterly, turned around and flipped over the bookcase.
Chen Tian looked at her back, and felt distressed, this woman who looks glamorous on the outside, the grievances and hardships she has suffered behind her back, ordinary people can't understand it at all, she has to bear so much pressure on her thin shoulders.
Xu Nan flipped through for a while, took out a photo album from the innermost part of the bookcase, and threw it to Chen Tian, who took it and looked at it carefully.
The album has fallen a thick layer of dust, it looks like the years are far away, and the texture is not very good, it is definitely not something that Xu Nan bought recently, it should be something a long time ago.
In the album is a long photo that has been slightly yellowed, in the photo, Xu Nan and another man are standing on a small bridge, under the bridge is a gurgling stream, Xu Nan leans on the man's shoulder, his face is indescribably happy.
But Chen Tian also found that this photo should have been taken a long time ago, Xu Nan should have been twenty-three or fourteen years old at that time, and her dress was far less graceful and luxurious than now, she felt like a working girl, but the purity on her face was still the same, and the man who hugged her shoulder was also dressed in work clothes, and the two of them were dressed plainly, which made Chen Tian realize that this photo may have been taken when Xu Nan first came to the mountain city.
"The person in the photo is called Li Bing. Xu Nan lit another cigarette and said slowly: "At that time, I had just come to Shancheng to work for two years, and I met him, he worked as an accountant in the factory next door, and I was a fellow countryman, how about it, okay?"
Chen Tian didn't speak, Xu Nan continued: "At that time, I had some savings in my hand, and I wanted to do business with him in a small shop in Shanchengpan, so we had another layer of partners, opened an early shop, and got up at three o'clock every day, made steamed buns, and made wontons, which lasted for a year." ”
Chen Tian put the photo frame aside, and already knew what was going on, and asked, "Then he ran away?"
"Run?" hehe," Xu Nan's nose was sour: "If he just ran away, then it's okay, I can still forgive him!"
As she spoke, her hand holding the cigarette was already trembling because of the force being too strong, and the cigarette was almost pinched by her: "I will never forget that morning, when I got up at three o'clock to make steamed buns, he went out to buy things, and when he came back, there was an extra woman beside him!"
Xu Nan's eyes were full of anger and said, "He beat me, he beat me with that woman!" drove me out of my shop, and threw all my hard work and love for him in the past few years out of the door with my luggage!"
"Have you ever seen a mountain city at three o'clock in the morning?" When Xu Nan looked up at Chen Tian, his eyes were full of tears: "I've seen it, I've seen it for two months." ”
She took a deep breath and wanted to hold back her tears, but it didn't work at all: "In those two months, I wandered alone on the streets of the mountain city, sleeping in the bridge cave every night, I was robbed by thieves, harassed, and even chased by stray dogs all over the street, but I endured it, I survived, I only had one thought in my heart, I wanted revenge, I wanted that man to kneel in front of me, I wanted him to know what he did wrong!"
The more Xu Nan spoke, the more excited he became, almost sobbing, Chen Tian heard it, and asked in a low voice, "He was talking to you on the phone just now?"
"No, it's Ye Mo. Xu Nan said: "Li Bing is back, he is different now, he is powerful, rich, and has become a big man, he heard about me through Ye Mo, and wanted me to go over, and wanted to see me." ”
"Are you going?" asked Chen Tian.
Xu Nan was silent, tears swirling in her eyes, she nodded, shook her head again, and said to herself: "I don't know, I don't know..."
Her current appearance is like a frightened kitten, Chen Tian couldn't help it anymore, went up and hugged Xu Nan in his arms, patted her gently on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
Xu Nan's crying changed from silence at the beginning, and slowly turned into a howling cry in the back, the sound made Chen Tian's heart break, but he knew that he couldn't say anything now, let Xu Nan cry, let her cry all her grievances!
He could also feel that Xu Nan was holding himself tighter and tighter, and Chen Tian felt that there was a heat in his chest, and he was about to vent it!
He grabbed Xu Nan's shoulder, looked at the teary-eyed beauty in front of him, and had mixed feelings in his heart, wanting to do something, but he always felt that he lacked so much courage!
Xu Nan buried his head in Chen Tian's strong chest and said softly: "I am a woman, I also want to be protected, I don't want to worry about being afraid anymore..."
Chen Tian touched her hair and gently held her face, Xu Nan looked at him with affectionate eyes, and slowly closed his eyes, Chen Tian was heartbroken, and gently put his mouth up...
"Ding, ding, ding!"
Xu Nan's mobile phone rang at this time, and she opened her eyes and met Chen Tiansi, a little embarrassed.
"Answer the phone first, answer the phone..."Chen Tian said embarrassedly.
Xu Nan took the phone and glanced at it and said, "Ruined." ”
Chen Tianxin sank down for a moment, it's so late, the ruined son called, did something happen to the bar?!
Xu Nan answered the phone, clicked on the co-release, and asked the ruined son what was the matter.
"Sister Nan, Ye Mo is here, and he brought someone with him, saying that he must see you, otherwise he won't leave today. ”
"Who's bringing it?"
"A man named Li Bing. ”
