Chapter 70: Falling Stones
Bai Cen, who was standing at the door of Lin Yourui's house, felt very restrained, and she didn't know whether to knock on the door for a while.
During the time she was struggling, the door was opened from the inside, and an old woman was startled when she saw Bai Cen standing at the door stunned as soon as she opened the door.
"You are ......" The old woman obviously did not have very good eyesight, squinted her eyes and took a closer look at Bai Cen to see that this was her daughter's friend, and hurriedly said, "You are Bai Cen!" Oh, come in and sit, why did you stand at the door for so long? ”
Saying that, he beckoned Bai Cen to enter the door, Bai Cen hesitated, but still raised his feet and walked in.
The four walls of the family are a true portrayal of this family, and the glamorous Mrs. Lin family in the past now looks like she is crushed by reality.
Bai Cen couldn't help but have a sour nose, and tears almost wanted to burst out of his eyes.
Lin Mu, who was busy on the side, obviously didn't notice Bai Cen's mood here, but was busy in the kitchen, Bai Cen wanted to go over and take a look, but was pushed out by Lin Mu, and said that the kitchen was dangerous, don't approach.
Although Bai Cen wanted to make herself believe Mother Lin's words, she could determine that Mother Lin was lying with just a quick glance.
The fruit on the board is not particularly fresh, but it is quite complete, but it is a black piece and one less piece under the side board.
Bai Cen's tears were about to come out again, and he was forcibly endured by Bai Cen, Lin Mu didn't pay attention to Bai Cen's face, but was busy pushing Bai Cen out, Bai Cen had no choice but to let Lin Mu.
Mother Lin was busy in the kitchen for a long time before she came out with half a plate of fruit in her hand.
She greeted Bai Cen warmly and asked Bai Cen to eat, Bai Cen looked at the dehydrated and shrunken fruit, and a sense of guilt overwhelmed him in his heart.
"Thank you, Auntie," Bai Cen's voice was a little choked, she was afraid that Mother Lin would have something in her heart, so she endured her emotions, took a bite of the fruit handed by Mother Lin, and continued, "How is Lin Yourui recently?" ”
In an instant, Lin Mu's face sank a lot, and she only heard Lin Mu say, "What's good and bad?" It's been like this for so many years. He sighed faintly as he spoke.
Listening to what Mother Lin said, Bai Cen could be sure that the Lu family was still targeting Lin Yourui, Lin Yourui was looking for a job everywhere and working hard, while he was a young grandmother in the Lu family, although it was said to exist in name only, it was still much better than Lin Yourui.
As soon as Bai Cen thought of this, Ping Suli was bullied by Lu Jingnian, and a tear fell from his eyes that couldn't cry.
The tears fell to her fingertips, and she felt that she was a little out of shape, so she hurriedly wiped her face and said goodbye to Mother Lin.
Mother Lin was immersed in her own thinking at the time, and she didn't react for a while when she heard Bai Cen's farewell, until Bai Cen ran downstairs to the rental house, so she had to shout upstairs to pay attention to safety.
didn't look carefully downstairs, if she went to take a closer look, she would see her daughter walking in the direction of home with her head down, and Bai Cen was also running outside with her head down and wiping her tears.
Maybe fate is such a fantasy thing, obviously a wide road, and the two just bumped into each other.
Bai Cen was knocked back slightly, and his moist eyes were full of tears.
"How are you!" Lin Yourui looked resentful, "Are you here to fall into the well!?" ”
The tone was completely not so friendly, her apricot eyes were round, and the picture with a hint of joy was brutally destroyed by the tears in her eyes.
She looked at Bai Cen, and her eyes were full of sarcasm.
Seeing how Bai Cen didn't feel heartache when his former friend became like this, Bai Cen shook his head and said no, but Lin Yourui didn't give her this chance to defend herself, and said again: "Indeed, how could such a good person as you come to fall into the well?" ”
Bai Cen's eyes began to light up slightly, but he heard Lin Yourui say again.
"You're just a lowly person, obviously harming our family like this, but you still have to pretend every day that it's not me or me," Lin Yourui hooked his lips and smiled cruelly, "Is it fun to pester our family?" ”
Lin Yourui's words are like a double-edged sword, hurting both others and himself.
Bai Cen looked at Lin Yourui like this, and the guilt in his heart was even more fierce and roaring towards her.
Her beautiful curved lip line, which usually looks smiling even if she is not smiling, but now she is tightly pursed, and she is like a tough weed, trying her best to straighten her back that is about to be bent in front of the boulder.
Lin Yourui looked at Bai Cen like this, and felt a little unbearable in her heart, but she turned her head and pretended not to see it, and wanted to walk straight past Bai Cen.
But when he passed by Bai Cen's side, Bai Cen's hands were slender and delicate, and there would be a very comfortable touch when holding her, and then Bai Cen said: "I...... I'm sorry for you. ”
Hearing this, Lin Yourui directly shook Bai Cen's hand away and ran towards the rental house like a desperate escape.
Tears welled up in her eyes when she turned her back to Bai Cen, she knew that Bai Cen would definitely be watching her from behind, so she didn't dare to look back, for fear of seeing Bai Cen's sad eyes.
There was still a warm touch on his arm that came from when Bai Cen held her just now, and Lin Yourui rubbed his palm with his fingertips, which were full of pitted scars.
I said in my heart: I am no longer from the same world.
But tears burst out of his eyes when he thought like this, and they were menacing.
Bai Cen looked at Lin Yourui's back until she was gone, she seemed to have been hollowed out, and her back, which had just straightened up, bent down suddenly.
Looking at this huge world, the voices of people are boiling, the crowds are surging, everyone has different emotions written on their faces, and everyone has a completely different direction and return. Looking at this scene, Bai Cen didn't know where he was going for a while.
Bai Cen's last memories of the way home were completely blurry, and her mind seemed to have been hollowed out and could no longer hold anything, and it was completely blank.
Since she entered the door of the Lu family, she has never been in such an empty state.
When I got home, I opened the door. At a glance, I saw Lu Jingnian, who came back, sitting in a wheelchair, full of coldness, and looking at Bai Cen with a pair of boring eyes.
Seeing Lu Jingnian like this, Bai Cen felt like falling into an ice cellar for a while, and his body, which had gradually warmed up on the way home, began to gradually cool again.
No one was the first to speak, and the air in the villa was as heavy as if Bai Cen had frozen when he first met Lu Jingnian.
