Chapter 53: The Past Is Like Smoke (2)
When she first woke up from her dream, it was already dark outside the window. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She dressed herself and walked to the window, looking out at the misty sky, the empty streets and alleys were misty, and the occasional pedestrian or two hurried by, leaving only the sound of footsteps echoing in the empty morning light.
The scene she saw in Fang Cai's dream was like an illusory realm, it was so familiar, she was a little stunned, and at the same time a little nostalgic.
I remember that when I first saw Ayu, he accidentally broke into the house where she was practicing, and was stunned by her volley. At that time, she thought that this boy would be frightened by her and turn around like other children, but he didn't.
When she first saw the smile in his eyes, she knew that he was different from other children, because he was not afraid of her, he would not call her a monster, and he would even smile at her.
From then on, Ayu would come to the deserted house to look for her when he was free, and every time he came, he would bring two strings of sugar gourds, one for her and one for himself. Until one day, after Ayu was brought back by the servants, she never came to look for her again.
She didn't know where Ayu came from, nor did she know his real name. But she still went to the house to practice every day as usual, and waited for him by the way, and waited like this for a month. Until her father-in-law came to pick her up and return home, Ayu still didn't show up......
Later, her stepfather told her that she should not trust anyone easily. People are close to each other, there is always an end he wants to achieve by unscrupulous means, and his approach to you is nothing more than profitable.
She had cried before, and that was when she was six years old, for the first time outside of her parents, she had cried because of an outsider. It was also from that time that she gradually learned to forget, to learn to make herself cold and ruthless, until many years later, a person named Wuhuan appeared......
A knock on the door rang outside, pulling her back from her distant memory.
Is Jiang Xiaolou here......
She opened the door, but the person standing outside the door was Shen Yu, she was slightly stunned, just looked at him blindly, and did not speak. It turned out that what he said before was true, and the little boy who was deliberately forgotten by her when he was six years old was now standing in front of her again.
"What's wrong with you, why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Yu's heart moved, he had never seen her look like this, and the coldness in his eyes was reduced by half, as if there was still a trace of unsolvable confusion.
"Nothing." She quickly looked away from him, "What are you doing with me so early?" ”
"I just want to know if the thief is here, and since he hasn't come yet, we might as well go downstairs and wait for him, and have breakfast by the way." He said.
"Well, let's go." She nodded, walked up the room, bypassed Shen Yu, and went downstairs by herself.
Shen Yu followed behind her, watching her go downstairs without looking back, but she felt a little strange in her heart. Although she is still as cold as before and ignores people, she seems to be a little different today......
Could it be that you are in a daze?
When Jiang Xiaolou arrived at the inn, he happened to see Duan Chengcheng and Shen Yu having breakfast, he walked over and sat beside Chengcheng without seeing it, and did not forget to pick up a bun and stuff it in his mouth.
"I said you two were so unrighteous that you didn't wait for ......me for breakfast," he grumbled vaguely.
Shen Yu put down the teacup in his hand and glanced at Jiang Xiaolou, "Where is this where we are not righteous, obviously some people are tired of being reluctant to come in that gentle township, right?" ”
"Brother Shen really understands me, could it be that he is also a fellow practitioner?" As he spoke, he glanced at Allure meaninglessly.
Shen Yu's face darkened, "Who is the same person as you......"
"Don't be so nervous, and no one asks about your sin, you say yes, right?" Jiang Xiaolou smiled proudly and threw the question to Duan Qingcheng again.
The chopsticks in her hand stopped, and she sighed: "What if you two buy all the Red Mansions in the world, does it have anything to do with me?"
"Allure, you have to believe me, I'm innocent......" Shen Yu looked at her aggrievedly. What does it mean for him to buy all the Red Mansions in the world? Is she such a person in her mind? Besides, he doesn't seem to have that much money......
Jiang Xiaolou smiled awkwardly on the side, "Allure, you still talk so to the point......
"You're going to die." Shen Yu glared at Jiang Xiaolou fiercely, this damn thief bone, he really regretted that he gave him the jade pendant so easily yesterday, this was helping him, it was clearly harming him.
He secretly raised his eyes to look at Duan Chengcheng again, but saw that people were just quietly nibbling on the buns in their hands, and no one paid attention to them.
