1. Rebirth

Next Chapter

At half past seven in the morning, he heard the sound of rain. When I opened the window and looked out, I saw the moment the street lights went out. It was as if the rain had extinguished all the street lights.

Gu Tingcheng stood at the window and looked at it blankly for a while, as if he suddenly came back to his senses, lowered his head and touched the corner of his clothes, did not wash, put on a coat casually, and went out with an umbrella.

As soon as I went out, I heard the morning news from the TV in the landlord's house, and the voice was playing. He lightly locked the door, but saw the landlord come out with melon seeds, leaning against the door and shouting: "I said Gu Qingcheng, you came back in the middle of the night yesterday, who are the people looking for you, kicked in the middle of the night, and threw the bench and smashed things, so scared that we didn't dare to go out, the tenants in this neighborhood have opinions, you are a big star, and you don't lack this money, you quickly pay it back, and my rent this month, you didn't give it, you owe it for three months." I'm funny enough, if you don't pay the rent in a hurry and send away those who ask for debts, I won't rent this house to you, and I want you to deposit a three-month deposit, so don't embarrass anyone! โ€

As the landlord was talking, the children in the house started to make a fuss again, and the landlord went back to the house with a black face and a curse.

Gu Qingcheng stood at the door in a daze for a while, pursed his lips, there was no blood on his white face, only the corners of his mouth were bruised, and the right half of his eye was covered under his hair, which was already red and swollen into a slit. He passed by the landlord's door and heard the landlord's daughter-in-law say, "When will he pay the rent, don't be soft-hearted." I saw his brother in the vegetable market yesterday, such a big hairy crab didn't want to buy it, a few days ago the family went abroad to play, their family looks like they have no money! It's just two stops away, and he doesn't have money and doesn't want to go home to live! Didn't he say that he paid for their house? โ€

"If his brother recognizes him, will he still be chased around every day by debts? Let me tell you, this brother has still settled the accounts, not to mention that he is still the brother brought by his stepmother, he now owes a lot of debts, and the company says that he is in breach of contract, and wants him to pay liquidated damages, the money he owes, he can't pay it off for the rest of his life, the hot potato, his brother still cares about him? You go and see how he doesn't live or die, where does he look like a star, I want to say that we live here with a star, no one believes it at all, cowering and stupid. โ€

Gu Qingcheng turned his head to look into the house, and found that the landlord's daughter-in-law was holding the child to breastfeed, and when she saw him, she stared at him expressionlessly. Gu Qingcheng moved the corners of his mouth, his lifeless eyes drooped, and he walked out with an umbrella, and heard the landlord's daughter-in-law's "cut", which melted into the sound of rain.

The raindrops fell on the black umbrellas, splashing small pieces of water, the first heavy rain of the spring, knocking down the spring flowers that had just bloomed on the roadside, and those white and red petals were knocked to the ground, dilapidated and messy, flowing down the stagnant water into the sewer, accumulating at the mouth of the sewer. He stopped, and with a few strokes of his foot, the petals got on his shoes.

He exhaled and raised his head, it was their small two-story western-style building. Although the location of this house is not good, it is a small villa, and in this city where every inch of land is valuable, ordinary people have to work hard for many years to buy one. When his brother was going to get married, the family had no money to buy it, so he relied on his ability to earn money and used all his savings at that time to buy this house for his family.

The funny thing is that the house he bought can't accommodate him now. He looked up with his umbrella in his hand for a moment, then continued on his way and boarded the bus at a nearby bus stop.

The car was crowded, and as soon as he got in, an old lady came up, and he quickly stood up, gave up his seat to the other party, and retreated to the place where he got off, and stood against the back of the seat.

"Look at it, that's Zhao Jingming, so handsome!"

Several girls in the bus suddenly pointed out and whispered excitedly, hearing this familiar name, Gu Tingcheng turned his head to look over, and saw Zhao Jingming's huge poster, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and compelling. There is also a woman snuggled in his arms on the poster, he looked at the beautiful woman and showed a trance smile, it was his girlfriend Meng Dan.

got out of the car, he just walked a few steps, a car drove over, he couldn't dodge, was splashed with water, the two girls passing by were also startled, turned his head and saw Gu Qingcheng who was covered in water, covered his mouth and laughed.

Gu Qingcheng reached out and wiped the water on his face, sniffed, and continued to walk forward. He went upstairs, took out his key, and opened the door.

The room was silent, he didn't take off his shoes, he just entered the door, his leather shoes on the floor, making a slight sound, and the water stains running from the soles of his shoes left a series of footprints on the floor. The curtains were drawn in the room, and the light was a little dim. He went into the kitchen with a blank face and grabbed a fruit knife.

The two men on the bed were still asleep, and the floor was a mess of clothes, stripped from the bedroom door to the bed. His head suddenly hurt again, and in the confusion, he seemed to remember what he had seen the night before.

He came to the door with takeaway and fruit, took out the key to open the door, and before he could enter, he heard the man's rough gasps and the woman's high-pitched moaning/moaning, and the whole person froze in place at once.

The things in his hands fell to the ground, and the brightly colored oranges rolled all over the ground, so startled that the two people on the bed immediately pulled the quilt to cover their sweaty bodies. That's his girlfriend Meng Dan, and his good brother Song Jingming.

Gu Qingcheng suddenly trembled, he frowned tightly, as if he had auditory hallucinations, what came to his mind was Meng Dan who was caught and raped in bed, but his face was still red and panting: "You don't pee according to what kind of cowardice you are, you don't look like a man, which woman can look at you!" Jing Ming and I have been on good for a long time! You bumped into it just right, and I didn't have to tell you that I broke up. โ€

He was so cowardly sometimes that he hated it, because he saw Meng Dan on the bed and the calm adulterer Zhao Jingming, who were actually flushed, and stammered for a long time: "That's ...... Then you can't sleep with him either! How did he take advantage of my position in the first place, have you forgotten? My reputation is all caused by him, if it weren't for him, how could I be reduced to this ghost! โ€

Meng Dan raised his eyebrows: "You are wrong, it's not that Jingming made you become this ghost, but that you were originally this ghost!" You still have the face to say me, what about you, you are ...... with the boss of Zhengyang Media"

"I was drunk by Zhao Jingming at the time, I don't know anything!" When Gu Tingcheng mentioned this, he suddenly became excited: "I'm not gay, I said so to reporters, and I said the same to you!" I'm not! It was Zhao Jingming who bought the gossip magazine to smear me, I ...... Nothing happened to me and the boss! โ€

"Hahahaha," Meng Dan showed a mocking sneer, his eyes were full of disgust and disgust: "Whether you sleep or not, you know in your own heart." That Mr. Jiang is interesting to you, who doesn't know?! I, Meng Dan, am also a little famous, do you want me to continue to follow you a man who was stabbed in the ass by a man, isn't it in vain for Jingming and my thoughts! โ€

Gu Qingcheng was dumbfounded: "Could it be...... It's you guys behind it...... Why, am I not good enough for you? โ€

"So what, if you are good to me, I should be good to you? Gu Tingcheng, let's make it clear, I never liked you from beginning to end, if you weren't a little famous, do you think I would follow you? Do you believe all the nonsense that I have to sleep with you on my wedding night? What age is this, that is, you are stupid, you will believe it! I can't even look down on you if you're famous, let alone now," she said, looking him up and down with extremely contemptuous eyes, Gu Qingcheng's face was red, and he heard Meng Dan say word by word: "Like a lost dog!" โ€

"I have a home, this is my home!" Gu Tingcheng said: "This is the house I bought, it was you who said that you were already famous, and you didn't want to live in too cold, so I took you over, and then you said that you were afraid of the paparazzi secretly taking pictures, so I moved out, this is my home!" โ€

"But now on this real estate certificate, my name is written, have you forgotten, you willingly transferred it to me, it is proof that you love me."

"You...... You ......" Gu Qingcheng staggered back two steps, held back for a long time, but did not say a complete sentence, he turned around and walked out, and when he walked to the staircase, he heard footsteps from behind, turned his head to look, and saw Meng Dan, who was conservative and gentle in his mind, standing at the door with his body โ–กโ–ก, and closed the door with a "bang".

As he walked, he muttered incoherent words, the traffic was busy, and he looked like a drunk man in the street. But as soon as he returned to the place where he lived, the group of debt collectors came to the door again, and he was numb to the same torture and threats, until the other party added another sentence in addition to the usual demand for money: "Also, your girlfriend has dumped you, if you harass him again, Lao Tzu will castrate you!" โ€

He suddenly realized that the original behind-the-scenes instructions of this qiฤ“ may be these two people, who made him fall from the clouds into hell, Zhao Jingming's calculations made him hide by the company, Meng Dan's instigation made him breach the contract and secretly take over the job, and then was found out by the company and dismissed and sued, comrades are suspicious, and the rumors of selling himself for glory make him have no place to stand in the entertainment industry, and he lost a qiฤ“ in an instant.

The damage that the enemy can give you in this world is limited, and the one who can hurt you the most will always be your dearest and most loved person, your colleague, friend, relative, and lover. They can hurt you the most invisibly, and they can also feel at ease and calm after hurting you.

After a sleepless night, now that he was in front of these two men again, the man and woman did not seem to be affected by his sudden intrusion yesterday, perhaps he had always been cowardly and honest, and they never took him seriously.

Meng Dan is still very beautiful, her appearance without powder looks pure and enchanting, her snow-white body is full of kiss marks, and the man straddles her with a loud voice, sleeping sweetly.

He leaned forward like a ghost, put the blade against Zhao Jingming's neck, and looked at him blankly for a while, his bloodshot eyes narrowed slightly, and blood splashed his face. He pressed Zhao Jingming, who was staring at him with wide eyes in convulsions, and looked at him expressionlessly, followed by a scream, he turned his head, and saw Meng Dan's frightened face.

Zhao Jingming's body shook a few times, and finally he was lifeless, Meng Dan was so frightened that he almost fainted, and Gu Qingcheng, who was covered in blood, got up and held the knife in his hand.

"Gu Cheng, you're crazy, you've killed someone, you've killed someone!"

"I'm killing someone!" Gu Tingcheng, who had been lifeless, suddenly roared, and Meng Dan was so frightened that he suddenly got up from the bed, but Gu Tingcheng pounced directly and grabbed her hair, Meng Dan trembled and said: "Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng, I was wrong, I was really wrong, you spare me, I don't dare anymore, Gu Cheng, I love you!" โ€

At the moment when the phrase "I love you" came out, Gu Tingcheng's knife cut her throat, Meng Dan only struggled a few times, and then fell into a pool of blood, the blood stained the white sheets, Gu Tingcheng looked at Meng Dan who was holding his neck and twitching, and suddenly laughed, tears fell big and big, his smile was weird and tragic, and said: "No one in this world loves me......"

The fruit knife in his hand fell to the ground, he watched Meng Dan die, turned around and went to the kitchen, turned on the faucet, and carefully washed his hands.

This filthy blood, and the demonic self in the mirror. He drenched his hair with water, the oil was shiny, he carefully wiped the blood on his face, and the hole in the mirror was as white as his newborn self.

He was a very life-loving person, cowardly, humble and kind, and he didn't have much success, and even he didn't know how he got to this point. He tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection, the world was difficult, the company, colleagues, relatives, lovers, they squeezed out his last value, and then all abandoned him, without giving him half of sympathy. Now he has no father, no mother, no job and no home, and his only lover and friend has betrayed him.

He came to the window and watched the rain outside.

It was the first spring rain of the year, and it rained so hard that it reminded him of a song he had heard before. "The spring rain is as expensive as oil, the streets are full of streams, the rain is more expensive, I miss you to the white head."

He took out his mobile phone and dialed a call, but it was a few "beeps" and the other party answered.

"Didn't you always want to sleep with me? I'll send you the address, come here. โ€

Without waiting for an answer, he hung up the phone and sent the address. The cold wind from the window kept pouring in, blowing away the smell of blood, and he squinted his eyes and took a breath, and the rain was blown down on his face by the wind, like he cried.

A car stopped downstairs, and then a large black umbrella was opened, and a tall and tall man stepped out of the car, looking upstairs.

He saw a thin man upstairs, sitting at the window looking at him, and the rain wet his face so much that he couldn't see the other person's expression clearly. At that moment, he shuddered violently, and saw the man leaning over.

Gu Qingcheng's body fell to the ground along with the heavy rain, and the sound of the rain even drowned out the last sound of falling to the ground that he left in this world.

His death, like his life, was silent. Only this man named Jiang Cheng witnessed his death, and he may not forget it for the rest of his life.

It's a curse, it's a gift.
