Chapter 381: Choice
I could feel the fabric of the sleeves getting wet in an instant.
"Don't tell me I'm sorry." He raised his head, and the expression on his face returned to his previous firm, calm and indifferent appearance, "I know that what I should hate is not what you should retaliate against, nor you, from beginning to end I should hate Boss Yun." ”
After all, it was he who was the one behind the scenes, who single-handedly caused the tragedy in Bai Rouying's family.
It's just that Boss Yun has now received his due retribution, and even if Bai Rouying hates it, there is no one to hate.
She thought that she didn't know why, and suddenly smiled, and then shook her head: "Forget it, what's the use of talking about this now?" Jin Yu should be regarded as if we let each other go, you let me go, I will let you go, let's treat it as if we have never met, and we will never meet again after today. ”
Don't see each other again after today.
The meaning of the words has been clearly revealed.
She wants to draw a clear line with Jin Yu, completely draw a line, and be a pair of strangers who she didn't know before and will never meet again in the future, and even if she does, it will only pass by.
The sun had risen to the center of the sky, shining straight down, just through the dense gaps in the leaves overhead, leaving a series of mottled marks on the rugged ground.
Jin Yu's eyes moved, and after passing the class, he suddenly spoke slowly: "Okay, let's let each other go." ”
Hearing such an answer from Jin Yu's mouth, Bai Rouying couldn't say for a while, whether she was more sad or happier in her heart.
In fact, she felt that she should be a little happier.
After all, the saddest thing for him was probably that he thought that Jin Yu had killed his parents, and now the truth is revealed, Jin Yu was not involved in the original incident at all, and he didn't even know about it.
It had nothing to do with him from beginning to end.
And now in this kind of situation, she has no way at all, in the case of accepting Jin Yu, Jin Yu also agreed, no longer entangled with her, just as a stranger to get along, it should be a good thing for her.
But she couldn't be happy at all.
The corners of his mouth pulled up slightly, and he reluctantly drew a smile that was uglier than crying.
After a long while, she nodded: "Okay, that's it, no matter whether we have the chance to meet again in the future, I just hope that we will treat each other as strangers, strangers who have never known each other." ”
It was obviously the result he wanted the most, but Bai Rouying still felt empty in her heart, as if someone had dug out a piece of her heart somewhere.
It doesn't hurt or itch, but the sour feeling is inexplicably making people want to cry.
Bai Rouying shook her head heavily, removing the messy emotions from her mind.
She tried to tell herself not to think about it again, "By the way, I have one more thing to ask you." ”
After getting along with Bai Rouying for so long, Jin Yu thinks that she can be said to be the person who knows Bai Rouying in the world, she just has a word, an expression, and even a demeanor, Jin Yu can see what Bai Rouying wants to express.
"You want to ask about Lu Zhan?"
It seems that apart from the matter about Lu Zhan, there is nothing else that will make Bai Rouying worry about it.
Bai Rouying nodded: "Yes." ”
She talked about the incident when she went to Lu Zhan's house with Yun Ruo before, and after going through a rough detail, she added at the end: "I think there should be no one else except for you who will spend such energy to make people stare at Lu Zhan's brother, right?" ”
When Jin Yu heard Bai Rouying call Lu Zhan "Brother Lu Zhan", he only felt that he was about to go crazy with jealousy, and he didn't know what Bai Rouying was talking about, but he felt that he hated Lu Zhan and Lu Zhan in his heart.
But now he didn't seem to feel that way anymore.
It's not because she has no feelings for Bai Rouying.
But......
None of that seems to matter anymore.
After going through so much, he seems to have realized something, and he seems to be more stubborn.
"The people sent to monitor Lu Zhan's family are indeed my subordinates." Jin Yu confessed to this incident and directly confessed honestly.
Jin Yu: "I went to Xiaohai Village to discuss a business, and I happened to meet Lu Zhan, thinking that he might have your news or whereabouts, so I met with him. ”
Needless to say, Lu Zhan's personality naturally would not betray Bai Rouying with his temperament, even if he had to pay, he couldn't afford to pay the price.
As a result, Jin Yu directly controlled his freedom of movement.
"But don't worry." Jin Yu said, "From the moment I saw you, I had already let Lu Zhan go, and I think if nothing else, he should have returned to the apartment where he lives by now." ”
As for why he hasn't gone to Bai Rouying yet, it is probably because he thinks that Jin Yu will cheat if he suddenly lets him go.
After all, this time the matter between Jin Yu and Bai Rouying is not particularly clear, and there is no news from the outside world about the land war, even if you want to understand, it will take a long time.
Hearing the news that Lu Zhan was safe and sound, Bai Rouying's heart fell back into her stomach.
She glanced at Jin Yu's car parked not far away: "In that case, can I go?" It's a remote place, and you're going to be asked to send me away......"
"Come up with me on a mountain climb." Jin Yu suddenly spoke.
The tone of the man who has always been indifferent has a rare hint of pleading.
Bai Rouying originally wanted to refuse, but her eyes happened to meet Jin Yu's expression, and she suddenly felt that her heart was soft, and she had already reached her mouth, and if she refused, she suddenly couldn't say it.
After being silent for a long time, Bai Rouying finally nodded slowly.
"Okay."
……
The two of them quickly walked up the mountain road.
It is said that it is a mountain road, but in fact, it can barely become a small road, probably because no one has walked for too long, this path is covered with weeds all around, and the gravel is scattered all over the ground.
Although Bai Rouying was climbing the mountain, she was quite absent-minded in her heart, although her eyes were looking ahead, she always seemed a little empty, she didn't know what she was thinking, as if she was preoccupied.
Jin Yu followed closely behind Bai Rouying, staring at Bai Rouying's slender figure in front of him, always beware of any accidents to her, and the whole person almost maintained Bai Rouying in front of him.
"I used to come here many years ago to climb the mountain, probably just after college, and it wasn't so desolate yet, so I would often come here with some friends from school," he said. ”
It's rare for two people to chat so calmly.
Bai Rouying slightly restrained her mind, put her empty gaze on the soles of her feet, and looked at the front and gradually slowed down and calmed her tone.
She said: "I really don't know, it turns out that you also like sports so much, or such outdoor sports." ”
Or that Jin Yu likes sports, Bai Rouying knows that after all, when he was with Jin Yu, it was not uncommon for him to go to the gym in the old mansion.
However, outdoor sports such as mountain climbing have known Jin Yu for so long, and Bai Rouying is the first time I have seen him do it.
"When I said that, I suddenly realized that I didn't seem to know you very well." Bai Rouying couldn't help but smile as she spoke, "Or maybe we don't know each other well enough...... Hiss! ”
Before she finished speaking, Bai Rouying's soles suddenly stepped on a sharp stone, her ankles twisted violently, and the whole person shook and fell to the side.
There happened to be a stone of considerable volume in the place next to it, and the white light of Bai Rouying glimpsed it, and it happened to be seen that the top of the stone seemed to be sharp.
And this angle caused by myself, if it is not unexpected, I am afraid that it will fall right on that stone.
She exclaimed, closing her eyes almost in despair.
If you really hit it this time, I'm afraid that a serious injury will be inevitable!
Bai Rouying closed her eyes almost in horror, but the expected pain did not come.
Jin Yu stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around her waist, Bai Rouying only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and then, he fell into a warm embrace.
She slowly opened her eyes, facing Jin Yu's dark pupils, and was stunned for a moment.
At this time, Jin Yu had already loosened her waist very gentlemanly: "Are you okay?" ”
Bai Rouying shook her head a little stunned, then nodded, and then seemed to realize that she was shaking her head and nodding again, just afraid that no one would know what it meant, and said, "I'm fine, thank you just now." ”
The voice was vaguely embarrassed.
Jin Yu stared at her for a while: "It's okay. ”
The atmosphere between the two was inexplicably stiff and awkward, and they looked particularly rusty, as if the conversation and laughter they had had made a moment ago were just a joke.
Bai Rouying straightened up and took a step back, pointing slightly ahead: "Keep climbing." ”
At this time, apart from this, there seemed to be nothing else to say, which could alleviate her embarrassment at this time.
Jin Yu didn't express the meaning, but after waiting for Bai Rouying to take the first step to climb the mountain, he became more cautious when he followed behind Bai Rouying.
During the whole process, her eyes were almost glued to Bai Rouying's body, as if she was afraid that she would have some other accidents if she was not careful.
Fortunately, probably because of the previous lesson, Bai Rouying was also a lot more vigilant, and the whole process after that was relatively smooth, climbing up the mountain all the way, although it was a little difficult and hard, but there were no accidents.
When you climb to the top of the mountain, the sun is right in the middle of the sky, casting a golden light on the wild land at the top of the mountain.
The view looks stunning.
Bai Rouying looked at the scene in front of her, and she didn't know what she thought of, and she was a little distracted.
Until Jin Yu walked next to her from behind.
"Actually, I've always wanted to take you to find a place where there is no one, only the two of us to stay for a good day, but I can only look for such a place, and I have been looking for too long, so that so many things have happened in the middle."
Bai Rouying didn't answer, or maybe she didn't know what to say at all.
She pursed her lips slightly, and after a long pause, she finally turned her head to look at Jin Yu.
The man's expression was calm, his eyes were calm, his pupils were deep and dark, and there seemed to be some complex emotions hidden in his eyes.
Bai Rouying's heart moved, and suddenly she stretched out her hand like a ghost.
"I ......" blurted out for a moment.
However, the mobile phone that had been in his pocket suddenly vibrated violently, followed by a crisp ringtone.
She subconsciously retracted her hand, and the expression on her face became very nervous.
Jin Yu's gaze darkened.
Bai Rouying quickly took a few steps back, widening the distance between herself and Jin Yu, as if the man in front of her was some kind of flood beast.
"I ......" she swallowed hard, took out the phone in her pocket and squeezed it tightly in her hand, and didn't look at the caller ID on it at all, but quickly turned her back.
