People are sometimes a kind of masochistic animal, knowing that there is a big pit in front of them or jumping into it, knowing that other people's words are ugly, but still pricking up their ears to hear the ugly words one by one, knowing that the truth is ugly, but still insisting on seeing the unbearable appearance with their own eyes...

The nightlife in the city center is always bustling with traffic, and everyone has a happy smile on their face, as if even walking aimlessly on the street is a pleasure for them.

However, compared with the hustle and bustle outside, Wu Yao's building is still busy, as if it is a machine on the body of a happy clown, although others see a relaxed and smiling face, but inside it is still working nervously.

I hadn't been here for a long time, so much so that the moment I walked in the door, I forgot that I had been to this busy building. It's been a few months, but the people who live there are still busy, and the phone calls are still coming from everyone's pockets, as if to remind me that this is the place where I used to live.

"Didn't you say go to a café? Why did you come to your house? ”

Wu Yao didn't speak, he just walked silently with his head down, but the sound of the leather shoes on his feet hitting the floor was very loud.

"Because compared to the outside, Wu Yao's building is the safest for you."

Xu Shaohui, who was silent just now, opened his closed mouth at this time, and the way he walked past me and whispered made me goosebumps, listening to his tone, it seemed that the world outside the door was purgatory on earth for me.

On the seventeenth floor, when Wu Yao pressed that button, that long-lost sense of familiarity filled my brain again. In that moment, the happy moments of the month I spent here flashed in front of my eyes like a movie. I suddenly felt that I was still the same Chen Rui who had cancer and would die soon, or the down-and-out Chen Rui who came to avoid Ouyang Ze's search...

Although each button in the elevator was newly painted when it was renovated, it was worn out after many touches, but the number "17" still maintained its former glory, flashing with the brilliance of the golden part.

None of us said the first word, the awkward atmosphere was depressing, I almost suffocated, I just wanted to get out of this confined space quickly, I just wanted to know the truth of the matter quickly and go home to rest. I'm so tired, so tired that I don't have the strength to spend it with them, I don't have the opportunity to argue about the rights and wrongs of things, I just want to know the truth as soon as possible.

"Ding~"

The moment the elevator opened, the familiar furnishings came into my eyes again. Everything is still the same, even the aroma wafting through the air is still the same as it was more than a year ago.

"I've been in contact with Xu Shaohui for the past year, and we basically meet here every three months."

Wu Yao said as he walked down the long corridor to the bedroom where I used to live, his hand touching the wall from time to time, as if reminiscing about the happy times of that month.

"I don't mean to lie to you on purpose, because this incident has really hurt you, and I don't want to tell you unless it is absolutely necessary. After all... After all, this matter involves Ouyang Ze. ”

Wu Yao turned around abruptly and said to me in a slightly helpless tone. I don't know what he's up to, but the emotion from the corners of his eyes and eyebrows doesn't seem to be disguised at all.

"Don't want to tell me? Hmph, what about now? Now is the time for that 'last resort'? Is that the time to tell me the truth? Oh, are you going to tell me that Ouyang Ze doesn't love me at all, just to play with me? ”

Maybe it was my contempt and disdain that made Wu Yao lose the interest in talking. He was still looking at me with wide eyes, his mouth still open.

"Don't you believe it?"

"I believe it? How can I believe it! You TM mysterious, sneaky and sneaky to do so many things, even Xu Shaohui has become a person on your side who is distracted from me, how can you make me believe it! ”

I slammed Wu Yao's hand off my shoulder and roared at him.

"It still has something to do with Ouyang Ze, what does it have to do with it? Yes? You say! What does it matter! ”

This absurd night really made me hold back the fire in my stomach, and Wu Yao's unclear words ignited the fuse of the explosives bag in my heart. Just as I was about to leave that strong slap on Wu Yao's face, Xu Shaohui grabbed me.

"Chen Rui! Can you let Wu Yao finish his words! Can you wait until you understand this matter before you do it! ”

I can't believe that Xu Shaohui has really become Wu Yao's person now. Back then, when I told Xu Shaohui about me and Wu Yao, he roared that he was going to abolish Wu Yao, and when Wu Yao came back from the United States, he also wanted to find someone to cut him with a knife. But now, his good buddy and Xu Shaohui are simply two living people.

"Okay! I'll let you say, I'd like to see what you have to say at such a 'last resort'! What does it have to do with Ouyang Ze! ”

I opened the door and looked at the bed I had slept in, and my anger burned through the nostalgia that haunted me.

"Hello? It's me, you come back quickly, there are some things I want you to tell him, well, that's it. ”

Wu Yao made the phone unhurriedly, and his steady tone was as if he had a fierce material in his hand, as if the truth that was about to be told in a while was like a trivial matter that would not hurt to him.

After hanging up the phone, he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed one without waiting for Xu Shaohui to reach out. After the grinding sound of the lighter, a glimmer of orange light lit up in the room, and although it was only for a moment, it also preserved the sparkling light on the two cigarettes.

"Rui Rui, to be honest, you really don't know that much about Ouyang Ze, you don't know what kind of person he is, and the things he does to you are not as attentive as you imagined."

Xu Shaohui gently exhaled the smoke ring, and said to me in a spider tone with the wisps of green smoke that filled his mouth, and the shoulder leaning on the door frame shook disdainfully.

I can't believe that people can become so fast! A few months ago, when Xu Shaohui first arrived in the United States, he still admired Ouyang Ze, and he was also very enthusiastic when dealing with the conflict between me and him.

"But I can't blame you for this, if you want to blame Ouyang Ze, the old fox, is too cunning and vicious."

"Don't say it, wait for her to come and let her say it, after all, she has something to do with this matter, and she has more say than you."

One by one, "she" heard me in the clouds, and I didn't know what dumb riddles they were playing, all I could do was wait, waiting for the truth to appear...
