Chapter 018 Selling Tenderness.

Without waiting for Song Jiu to think of the wording, Bi Chu swept the milk, paid the money, and then threw it into her arms accurately.

Song Jiu happened to catch it with his hand.

"Pretty accurate."

The shredded hair on his forehead was a little longer, and his tone was not emotional.

"I ......"

"Just take it as if I asked."

Song Jiu squeezed the milk bottle in his hand and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but it was not good to block the people behind him.

When he finally ran away, he still left a sentence: "I will pay you back!" ”

The girl's voice is sweet and clean, with a gust of summer style. It sounded like a very ordinary sentence, but it inexplicably made him feel a little restless in his heart.

He lowered his eyes again, and with a lazy expression, he tore off the bill at the cash register.

***

Bi Chu hasn't been home since he came back from school during the holidays.

Since Bi Wenran decided to take him to live in Gu Baihai's house, he ran away from home "willfully".

Although the house on the side of the maple forest in Xishan was blown into ruins and ruins, it has long been included in the redevelopment area of the old area. Bi Chu still rented an apartment near the community to live.

He pinched his eyebrows and was in a trance for a while. Those gray and white memories of the past suddenly resurfaced like a movie.

The house collapsed, and the shaking was as violent as when an earthquake came, followed by crying, pushing, and shrill and panicked screams, which in Bi Chu's childhood were earth-shattering.

Because the relationship is intricate and there are too many layers involved, the 0521 Xishan Fenglin blasting case that once shocked the whole country was finally closed. Bi Chu's biological father, Ye Jiangnian, was also nowhere to be found after that.

But Bi Chu knew that that person, he didn't die, he just hid, hiding out of sight. He had accidentally seen him in news reports, and it was from that time that Bi Chu knew that he was the direction he was trying to pursue, and the object of his life's revenge.

The cool breeze in the store blew his black overalls and enveloped his long body, not hiding the vigor of the young man's sunshine, except for a pair of eyes that were gloomy, sharp and cold.

A phone rang, and it was Bi Wenran calling.

A hint of gloom flashed in the pure black pupils, and he was silent for a few seconds, but he still connected with his fingers.

The downtown business circle, the Gujia villa area.

The graceful woman stripped off her muslin shawl, twisted her fingers on a freshly pruned red rose, and inserted the last one into a vase.

Her facial features are already very good and well-maintained, and her temperament is too noble.

"Achu, how are you doing?"

The gentle and concerned words loosened the camouflage defense that the young man had built up with great difficulty for a moment, and his throat had a sour feeling that he had not seen for a long time. It turned out that he was also remembered.

It's been seven years, and even a heart that is invulnerable to fire and water should be warmed up.

Bi Wenran thinks so.

However, this is not the case.

The shadows and traumas left by childhood are lifelong, and a child who grows up in an unharmonious and incomplete family will have some flaws in his personality, such as withdrawn and sensitive.

When he was a child, Bi Chu was modest, polite, pure and harmless, and with the blessing of his innate excellent appearance, he could get along well with a group of children, not at all like now, becoming a cold school bully that everyone respected.

To put it mildly, the big guy with countless rumors is actually a ruffian who is self-defeating, stubborn and indulgent, and once caused headaches for the top management of the school. Causing trouble and fighting everywhere, he has a withdrawn and cold personality, no one dares to be friends with him, and when he sees it, he will only automatically take a detour.

On the surface, except for Lu Chen and Zhou Yu, who were friends who became friends due to fighting, no one dared to approach him.

The young man swept away the emotions in his eyes, and his tone was calm: "It's okay." ”

"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, do you want to go home for the festival?"

"Which home?" Bi Chu put his fingers on the metal railing and lightly buckled a few times, hooking his lips and smiling.

He had no home for a long time. Many years ago, when he was still young, Ye Jiangnian and Bi Wenran's relationship broke down, and their marriage was about to come to an end. But for some reason, he has maintained a widowed marriage. As soon as Ye Jiangnian came back for a while, Bi Wenran quarreled with him, and the house was full of miasma.

Later, Ye Jiangnian disappeared, and in less than a year, Bi Wenran remarried and made a big fortune.

There was no reply for a long time, probably because he was angry.

"In a few days, it's your Uncle Gu's birthday......"

Gu Bohai made his fortune by starting a business when he was young, and now he is a powerful figure in the elite circle and the city's leading business predator.

is also now Bi Chu's name, father.

"If there's nothing else to do, I'll hang up, there's something going on here."

The young man's expression was bleak, and he was so alienated that it was difficult to get close.

"Bi Chu! Can you talk like something! What does this look like? What can you do in the future?! ”

The pent-up emotions exploded in an instant, and Bi Wenran rarely had such a hysterical gaffe as now.

[Ahh 】

There was the sound of porcelain falling and breaking.

Bi Chu closed one eye and turned the phone away a little, and said with a smile, "Don't you know what I am." ”

"One day you'll know that I'm all for your good!"

"Is there anything else?"

"I'll let Ah Qi pick you up."

Pressing down the call, Bi Chu leaned back in the chair and hooked his lips mockingly.

He pulled out the cigarette case in his pocket, pulled out a cigarette, and put it in the corner of his mouth. A little scarlet light lit up, reflecting the pale color of his eyes. The feeling of tobacco passing through the lungs is numb and irritating.

When the time comes, it's time for him to get off work.

Su Qi also happened to come to find him.

The girl has long hair in a white dress, a slightly curly ponytail, a standard goose egg face, and amber almond eyes that are crystal clear.

"Brother, Aunt Bi said...... Ahem, ahem, say let me take you home. ”

The smoke around him choked her and she coughed.

Bi Chu tugged at the corners of his mouth in response, and quietly extinguished the cigarette butt.

"Then let's go."

Su Qi walked in front, looked back, and found that Bi Chu was still at the door of the store and did not follow.

He stood there with a snack bag in his hand, "Come here." ”

His eyebrows were raised slightly, and there was rare tenderness in his voice: "You went in the wrong direction, and it was my brother who took you home." ”

- "Brother will take you home." ”

Song Jiu didn't know how she felt when she came here to hear these words over all obstacles, maybe a little, disillusioned.

Tell her that the only little joy and throbbing she had before was just a dream. But if she could, she thought she would still be willing to do it every day.

The girl ran with a blushing face, leaning over to hold her knees and panting slightly.

Fine sweat overflowed from his forehead, stained with the scent of jasmine along the way. In her hand was the six dollars she had taken from her family's small piggy bank.

"Brother......

"What's wrong?" Bi Chu took a few steps forward and handed the snack bag to her.

Su Qi didn't move, her apricot eyes widened slightly, and she raised her hand and pointed behind Bi Chu: "There is someone behind you, is she here to find you?" ”

And she seems to have seen this person, but for a moment she can't remember where she saw it.

Hearing this, Bi Chu frowned, turned around and looked back.

The girl was half-bent on her waist, with her palms propped up on her knees, as if she had just run vigorously, and her ears were faintly red.

She half-bowed her head, revealing a fair patch of skin on the back of her neck as the movement pulled away, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from it, sliding down the side of her neck and into the round neckline.

After a few seconds of pause, he withdrew his gaze expressionlessly. The inexplicable restlessness that had been suppressed in my heart before surged up again.

Bi Chu frowned, chuckled, and walked over to her.

Song Jiu wiped his sweat, out of breath, and his physical discomfort caused a brief dizziness in front of him. But what is even more sad is that there is an indescribable emotion, I don't know why, the sourness in my heart is deep and shallow, and it is intertwined one after another.

She bit her lower lip and restrained her emotions. But I still couldn't help but pull the corners of my mouth down.

A lazy laugh sounded overhead.

Bi Chu also followed her example, half-squatting to hold his knees, teasing as if he was at her height.

"Hey, where are you in a hurry to run so fast?"

Song Jiu subconsciously raised his head, and his thick and slightly curly eyelashes fluttered.

Falling into that indifferent and obscure sight, she wanted to speak, but all the voices were stuck in her throat, unable to make a sound.

Bi Chu raised his eyebrows inexplicably, as if he didn't expect the girl to react like this.

She bit her lip and remained silent, looking at him steadily, her gaze straight and pure. His face was flushed, and his eyes were filled with a layer of water, wet, like a charming and aggrieved fox.

The scenery on the green avenue, the flow of people and vehicles, suddenly became the background, and it was overshadowed at that moment.

The heart was like a cat's paw scratching, and the itch gradually spread from the limbs, but it was quickly covered up.

He rolled his throat and sneered: "Why are you still crying?" ”

"It's hard, it's uncomfortable." Song Jiu blushed, as if it took a lot of effort to squeeze out these words.

She didn't know why she was so uncomfortable.

This grievance looks like someone has bullied him.

Bi Chu looked at her lightly for a moment, and his tone was lazy: "Who bullied you?" ”

Song Jiu blurted out: "Can you help me call back?" ”

What does this mean, and still treat him as a thug?

Bi Chu's words were mixed with a vague smile: "It's not impossible." ”

He straightened up and touched his chin with one hand, "But there must be a deposit." ”

"Forget it, I'm not very rich."

The corners of her eyes were moist, still a little crying.

Bi Chu raised his eyes as if unintentionally to look at the colorful lights in the fog in the distance, chuckled casually, and took out a lollipop from the transparent bag.

"Do you eat sugar?"

Song Jiu rubbed her eyes, and her slender and bony hands brought the sugar to her.

The small water droplets on the purple wrapper are crystal clear and grape-flavored.

The previous emotions were inexplicably calmed down, she didn't think much about it, it seemed to be instinctive, and reached out to take his candy.

The index finger touched his fingertips, and the touch seemed to carry an electric current, which pierced the heart with a crisp tingling.

It doesn't seem to be so sad, how easy it is, a piece of candy can fade away all her grievances and sadness.

Bi Chu calmly withdrew his gaze, he curled his lower lip and turned away.

Before he could take a few steps, he was pulled by a small force at the hem of his clothes.

Song Jiu has not forgotten the purpose of coming this time. After finishing her homework, she sneaked out while her mother was cooking.

"You, you wait...... Wait a minute, I've got something to do. ”
