Chapter 15 People are most vulnerable when they deceive themselves and are exposed.
Sensing that Zhuo Wenyi was wrong, Xia Shiyue tried harder to get closer to him.
Yet the closer she gets, the more distant he becomes.
"Wenwen, you've been very busy lately?" Finally, Xia Shiyue couldn't help but ask.
"Not busy." Zhuo Wenyi still looked at the writing indifferently.
"Not busy...... Xia Shiyue glanced at Zhuo Wen with aggrieved eyes, "Not busy, why don't you ...... busy?"
Zhuo Wenyi did not answer Xia Shiyue, but continued the matter in hand, Xia Shiyue could only obediently shut up and bow her head.
One day, Zhuo Wenyi and Xia Shiyue were walking on the path near the school, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Summer ...... Poetry Month? A low and magnetic voice sounded, which instantly attracted Zhuo Wenyi's attention, and he looked back, the man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, mature and steady, and no longer had the immaturity when he opened the store.
Xia Shiyue was also stunned when she looked at the man, she reacted for a while, "Ah! Senior Xia Tong! She smiled and greeted.
"You haven't forgotten me." Xia Tong smiled, his eyes full of joy, "You guys came out shopping?" He nodded politely at Zhuo Wenyi.
"Mm-hmm, come out and sell some food and go back." Xia Shiyue nodded obediently, "Why don't you open that Japanese food shop?" ”
Xia Tong glanced at Zhuo Wen one by one, "There is a better chance, so I went to give it a try." There was a hint of pride in his eyes.
Zhuo Wen lowered his head, the red line on Xia Tong's wrist did not have an owner.
Moreover, Xia Tong has a very high opinion of Xia Shiyue, although he has never used the system to pull the strings, and the only operation is to break his red line, but after maximization, there are a lot of props inexplicably.
"Oh, okay, let's go first." Xia Shiyue took Zhuo Wenyi's hand, but Zhuo Wenyi dodged.
Seeing this scene, Xia Tong frowned slightly, "Well, okay, see you later." ”
Two days later, Zhuo Wen was about to go back to the classroom and dormitory after class, and saw Xia Tong waiting for someone at the door from a distance, he stopped and watched, and after a while, Xia Shiyue walked over from another way.
The two didn't know what they were talking about, so they chuckled in their hearts, Zhuo Wenyi frowned, and stood aside.
Xia Tong handed a few bags in his hand to Xia Shiyue, Xia Shiyue was originally refusing, but Xia Tong didn't know what to say, and Xia Shiyue immediately accepted it.
It's not that he hasn't observed Xia Shiyue during this time, he knows her too well, she is not as happy as before, she is often in a daze, hiding and crying......
Midsummer passes, autumn cold hits, and people who pretend to be asleep are always unable to wake up.
"Xia Xia, are you in conflict with Teacher Zhuo?"
"No, haha." Xia Shiyue habitually played a round game, "Teacher Zhuo is cold, you know." ”
"Yes, he is cold, but he is not cold to you, and now he is colder to you."
Xia Shiyue smiled awkwardly, people are the most vulnerable when they lie to themselves and are exposed, "Is it?" What's the matter, I still have something to do, let's go first! She returned home with tears in her eyes, covered her face and began to cry.
As soon as Zhuo Wen got home, he heard Xia Shiyue's cry at the door, he lowered his head, and his eyes were red.
Distress and guilt were like two big hands, tearing at his heart mercilessly, he let out a long sigh, tears flowed down, and suddenly, another picture appeared in front of his eyes.
Xia Shiyue and him came out of the movie theater, and the two walked together on the path back to school, and pedestrians on the street passed by in twos and threes.
Suddenly, a man in a windbreaker pulled out a knife from his arms and stabbed it in Xia Shiyue's back, and then, he pulled out the knife and waved it in the air, and the pedestrians on the side immediately fell down two more.
He looked at his body holding Xia Shiyue and cried helplessly.
At the end of the picture, Zhuo Wenyi was already suffocating from heartache, he clutched his chest and propped up the wall, tears dripping down.
At this time, the security door opened, and Xia Shiyue wiped her tears while throwing the garbage into the trash can not far away, and then closed the door.
The phone vibrated twice, and it was her message:
[Wenwen, I've already booked a ticket, and we'll go together when you come back~]
[Didn't we look at the schedule half a year ago~]
[I know you don't have class tonight, it's coming~ I'm hungry! 】
In the movie theater, the man with a knife, the scenes passed in front of him, and Zhuo Wen put down his mobile phone in a panic.
[I'll wait for you at the cinema first!] 】
Before Zhuo Wen could think of a countermeasure, Xia Shiyue opened the door and walked out, closed the door and went downstairs.
He followed Xia Shiyue all the way to the cinema, looking at her lost expression and the action of looking at her phone over and over again, his heart was full of indescribable sourness.
"Shiyue."
Hearing the shout, Xia Shiyue turned around in surprise, but soon, the expression on her face turned into loss again, "Senior, okay." ”
"You're coming to see a movie, huh?" Xia Tong walked up to Xia Shiyue generously, "Alone? ”
Seeing that the show was about to start, the mobile phone couldn't get through, and the message didn't reply, Xia Shiyue shook her head and nodded again, "I ......"
"Quarrelsome?" Xia Tong smiled slightly.
"No, no, it's just that he has a temporary class ......" Xia Shiyue waved her hand and smiled far-fetched.
Xia Tong pointed to the snack bar, "Let's go, accompany me, I was also released as a pigeon, just right, I invite you to eat popcorn." He smiled kindly.
"No, no, no." Xia Shiyue still shook her head and refused.
[If she leaves at this time, she can also avoid what happened just now. Zhuo Wenyi watched all this from behind the pillar, [It's not that the red line is broken to protect her, I have to leave completely......]
He looked at Xia Tong and Xia Shiyue's red line, and an idea suddenly popped up, and then tied the red line of the two of them into a knot.
You've successfully connected a pair of red threads, and the system will issue a reward within an hour!
10,000 points have been deposited into the system
"Let's go! I used to want to invite you to a meal, but every time I bought a single order, I finally had a chance to give back to you for always taking care of my business. Xia Tong looked at Xia Shiyue seriously.
Xia Shiyue thought for a moment, "Okay......" After she finished speaking, she looked around again.
Zhuo Wenyi hid behind the pillar again, he frowned, not knowing whether to be sad or happy, so he could only walk back along the road in a distraction.
From a distance, he saw the man in the trench coat, who was pretending to be calm and walking towards this side, he stretched out his hand to stop the man, "Sir, may I ask for a card?" Fitness swimming? Check it out? ”
The man kept avoiding Zhuo Wenyi, his eyes flickering, "No, no, no." ”
"Sir, take a look, take a look!" Zhuo Wen didn't give up, he stuck to the man's side, blocking his way.
The man was in a hurry, raised his hand and raised the knife in his arms, Zhuo Wen was prepared in the morning, and immediately raised his foot and kicked his crotch.
The sharp knife fell to the ground with the man's wail, and Zhuo Wen immediately called the police as soon as he picked up the knife.
