Chapter 19: The Identity Gap
"No, no, Auntie, you are really serious...... Lin Jiayi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she pursed her lips in embarrassment, although Xu Yashi tried her best to comfort her, Song Yanyi's sharp eyes at that time, I am afraid she will never forget it in her life.
Is this the deterrent effect of the current chairman of Song's Enterprise? The aura was so powerful, just a look almost oppressed her breathlessly. Song Lingrui is obviously such an arrogant person, and he has to bow his head in front of his father!
The bottom of the bowl gradually revealed, and after Lin Jiayi thanked Xu Yashi, she lifted the quilt again and slowly got out of bed.
"What do you do?"
"It's time for me to go...... Lin Jiayi raised her head and smiled helplessly, if she stayed here any longer, with the character of the father and son of the Song family, it was very likely that she would have a big quarrel for her own stay, how could she be such a wicked person who destroyed the relationship between father and son.
Song Lingrui tightened her arm, and her bottomless eyes slowly met her face. In her bright eyes, he saw clearly......
Reluctance and fear!
Oh, where does she really want to go......
"Really...... Do you have to go? ”
"Hmm......" She took off her bloodstained clothes from the hanger, turned around and bowed slowly to Xu Yashi, and when she raised her head again, her face returned to her original comfortable smile, "Auntie, thank you for your help and care, I'm leaving." ”
Slowly walking out of Song Lingrui's room, Lin Jiayi came to the bathroom, took off Song Lingrui's shirt, and changed into her own clothes. When her gaze fell on the unprofessional, even messy bandage on her thighs, her eyes were instantly filled with a faint vapor.
This is the first time she has come to the Song family, and perhaps, it will be the last......
She already understood Song Lingrui's intentions, why didn't she have palpitations for this man? It's just that...... Their identities are too far apart...... With such a prominent family background as Song Lingrui, the only people who walked into the marriage hall with him should be those daughters who have a face in society.
Oh, how did she only understand this cruel truth now?
Out of the bathroom, Lin Jiayi endured the pain and slowly went downstairs, and the Song family was waiting for her in the living room. The moment Song Yanyi saw her, the dissatisfaction on her face was deeply imprinted in her mind.
"Chairman Song, thank you for your help today." Without any hesitation, Lin Jiayi also bowed to Song Yanyi with a smile on her face. No matter how much the eminent chairman rejects herself, she should do her best, and this thank you is also a matter of course.
"Good ......" Song Lingrui looked at her back, gritted his back molars, and just as he was about to rush up to keep her, a pair of big hands quietly stopped him.
Father......
He could only look at the sad silhouette, slowly moving away from his sight.
The moment the door closed, the door of his heart seemed to be slammed shut.
"I'm back in the study."
When Song Yanyi went upstairs, Song Lingrui sat down on the sofa in annoyance, and his uneasy emotions occupied his entire heart in an instant.
What if the stupid woman bleeds from the wound again halfway through? What if something happens to her?!
Xu Yashi sat down thoughtfully next to her son, and a layer of mist gradually appeared in her beautiful eyes.
The girl named Lin Jiayi always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in her......
She's a lot like a person......
Or rather, I seem to have seen her somewhere, somewhere......
Roadside –
When Lin Jiayi came out of Song's house, it was already dark, and in the late autumn season, it had become very cold at night. Lin Jiayi was only wearing a thin dress, and the autumn wind slowly swept across her skirt, and she couldn't help but shiver.
"Taxi!" She waved at a slowly approaching vehicle, and the taxi pulled to a halt in front of her.
Lin Jiayi got into the car and drove in the direction of her home. Looking at the ever-changing night scene outside the car window, Lin Jiayi sighed lightly and slowly rolled up the car window.
If he hadn't agreed to Song Lingrui's invitation today, maybe Lin Jialin wouldn't have been kidnapped, and he wouldn't have been taken to Song's house......
Perhaps, she will still have the courage to accept his heart......
When Lin Jiayi arrived home, it was already half past eight in the evening, and only her parents were still waiting for her in the living room.
She changed her shoes and walked slowly to the living room, seeing her parents' sad faces, she couldn't help but worry, "Dad, Mom, Linlin...... Are you okay? ”
"She's gone to sleep first." Su Wanru's gaze gradually fell on the bandage on Lin Jiayi's leg and the blood stains on her skirt, the worry in her eyes was infinitely magnified, "Your ...... hurt" gently pulled Lin Jiayi's hand, and after confirming that her daughter was okay elsewhere, Su Wanru looked at her white and tender arms, and her expression froze a little.
The bracelet that Lin Jiayi was wearing on her left hand is no longer on her hand......
"Jiayi, where's your bracelet?"
The voice of inquiry stabbed her like a needle, and Lin Jiayi realized that the bracelet given to her by her mother was gone.
When did it fall? Where did it fall?
"Let's look for it tomorrow." Father Lin waved his hand at her and said, "Jiayi, you go to rest first, and then talk about it tomorrow." ”
Lin Jiayi pursed her lips with some guilt, the bracelet was given to her by Su Wanru, it is said that she has been wearing it since she was a child, so she also treats it as a baby, but now she ......
Lost his soul and went back to the bedroom, under the dim light, Lin Jiayi changed into clean clothes and lay on the bed.
She was sad when she lost the bracelet, but she didn't know where she lost her beloved bracelet. Could it be that he fell while saving Lin Jialin? No...... She remembers that the bracelet was still on her hand.
In this case, it is only possible to be in the Song family......
She felt that the pain in her leg had eased, but her heart was starting to ache a little......
I don't know how Song Lingrui is now, will he be thinking about the same thing as her......
It's really ironic to say, and finally waited until she was interested in him, but the disparity in identity invisibly separated a gap between them.
After tossing and turning in bed for a long time, she still had trouble sleeping. At this time, the bedroom door was slowly pushed open by a pair of large hands. "Did you sleep?" Lin Shengyu's voice sounded outside the door.
"It's not ...... yet" Lin Jiayi slowly got out of the bed, her godless eyes met Lin Shengyu, she beckoned to her brother and motioned for him to come in, "Brother, Linlin, is she okay......"
"I'm a little frightened, but nothing else." He sat down on the side of Lin Jiayi's bed, the dim light reflected Lin Jiayi's somewhat pale face, Lin Shengyu opened his mouth, wanted to say something, and swallowed it back.
Lin Jiayi also saw her brother's hesitation, and after a long time, Lin Shengyu spoke.
"I'm really not a good brother......"
"What are you talking about, brother? You're doing well enough. ”
He knew that Lin Jiayi was comforting himself, when Lin Jialin was kidnapped, the person who rescued her from the predicament was Song Lingrui, and when Lin Jiayi was injured, it was Song Lingrui who was by her side. But he, who is an older brother, ......
At that time, he complained about himself in his heart more than once.
"How are you and Song Lingrui doing now?"
"We ......"
Lin Jiayi's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping was reflected in his eyes, both helpless and reluctant.
She didn't want to take the initiative to accept Song Lingrui's love, but unfortunately, the distance between them was so far......
Originally, she thought that as long as they were interested in each other, it would be difficult to stop them from falling in love, however, there were always some force majeure factors hindering them......
is like himself in his memory, he and Song Lingrui are obviously in love, but in the end they couldn't get together......
But what was the reason for their separation? Even I forgot that there was such a person in my life.
There is still a fog waiting for her from the memories of the past, and no one knows what is behind the fog.
She needs ......
More memories!
Lin Jiayi was in a daze for a long time, and finally ignored Lin Shengyu at all, and fell asleep.
"You ......" Lin Shengyu was also confused when he saw this.
That's it, maybe this girl is tired and sleepy all day......
Thinking like this, he shook his head helplessly, turned off the lights for Lin Jiayi, and quietly withdrew.
The silent corridor was pitch black, only the "rustling" sound of leaves outside the window, Lin Sheng and his wife had gone back to their son's room to rest, and the whole house was so silent that only his own breathing could be heard.
Let's go back to the room and see Linlin......
When Lin Shengyu walked to the door of his sister's room, in a hazy way, he heard a low whimper.
Linlin?!
He hurriedly pushed the door open and entered. There was no light in Lin Jialin's room, only a quiet ray of moonlight sprinkled on the bed through the window, and the people in the quilt trembled slightly, and the whimper came from Lin Jialin.
"Linlin." Lin Shengyu turned on the light in the room and came to her bedside, the girl's tearful appearance instantly came into his eyes, which made people feel distressed, he handed her a tissue, and asked patiently, "What's wrong?" How do you cry like this? ”
"I dreamed that my sister was killed by them......" In the dream, Lin Jiayi's pale face splashed with blood lingered in her mind like a nightmare, and in an instant, Lin Jialin's tears poured out, "My sister shed a lot of blood...... Flowed a lot of ......."
Lin Shengyu couldn't help but widen his eyes, he had never seen Lin Jialin so frightened, he never thought that this kidnapping incident would have such a big psychological shadow on this girl, so that he would dream of such a scene in his dreams.
What about the composure before? It turns out that this girl is holding on and pretending...... Her calmness in the face of the kidnappers and her ease when she was rescued were all forcibly pretended by this underage girl!
To stall for yourself? Or is it to keep them from worrying? Oh, how could she be sure that she would be able to escape the kidnappers' clutches? Or is it ...... It's all about giving yourself the courage to look for......
So in this case, it is not surprising that she feels so frightened now, after all, Lin Jialin is just a little girl......
"Don't cry Linlin." Lin Shengyu gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks and comforted, "Your sister has come back and has fallen asleep in her room, you don't have to worry, but you, little girl, bear this silently alone, so as not to let us worry about you, right?" ”
"Hmm......" Lin Jialin nodded slowly, she knew that the kidnapper's purpose was to take revenge on Lin Shengyu, so she took herself hostage, she begged her brother not to fall for the kidnapper's fall and act impulsively, but also didn't want her brother to mess up because of herself, "I chatted with the kidnappers, as long as they were happy, they wouldn't stare at me viciously......"
The helpless eyes gradually fell on Lin Shengyu, Lin Jialin pursed her lips aggrievedly, and muttered: "I told them that my sister is a famous writer, and it just so happens that one of them also likes my sister's books, so I kept talking, and when my sister came to save me, but ......" Lin Jialin's voice choked again, "Sister finally got hurt because of me......"
For this matter, she also regretted it, if she listened to her sister's words at that time and asked Song Lingrui to send her home, maybe there would not be this series of troubles that happened next, and her sister would not be hurt because of this.
But...... Can she be blamed for this?
Lin Shengyu listened to her intermittent words, sighed heavily, and hugged Lin Jialin into his arms. "Linlin, I don't blame you! Don't blame you! It's all my brother's fault, it's me who has caused you and Jiayi ......" Lin Shengyu with a choked low roar sounded in her ears, Lin Jialin's eyes gradually covered with a layer of fog, she sniffed hard, and her little hand slowly and slowly hugged her brother back......
The moment she was embraced by Lin Shengyu, an inexplicable sense of security arose, and the previous nightmare slowly receded and receded in her mind...... until it disappears......
For the first time in her life, Lin Shengyu hugged her so emotionally, and the girl's heart gradually settled down in the warm embrace.
