Chapter 33: Breakfast in the Morning

The ringtone on Lu Lingyun's phone woke us up in the early morning, and I opened my eyes to find that I didn't know when I was leaning on him.

Lu Lingyun helped me sit up and looked at the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, it had snowed all night, and the outdoors was shrouded in pure white.

"I have to go back to the city bureau, how about we go downstairs for breakfast?"

I said, "Okay." ”

So we briefly freshened up and put on his coat and left his new house, Lu Lingyun knew a good breakfast shop, I followed him, my hands in the pockets of my down jacket, my neck was high, and my eyelashes were frosty.

"It's cold, it's almost there." He suddenly stopped and looked back at me, reached out and buttoned the hat off the back of my neck, his smile was warm, and I was a little overwhelmed.

It wasn't until he walked out a certain distance that I stared at his back that I reacted and followed in a panic.

The small shop was full of people early, Lu Lingyun asked for the other party's consent, we shared a table, he went to order, and I sat and waited.

There is a TV in the small shop, and the morning news is always playing, and many customers will look up from time to time, and I am no exception.

There's an interview on TV, with a beautiful hostess conducting a one-on-one interview with a successful entrepreneur.

"Mr. Lin, I heard that your investment in the project in Northeast China is expected to exceed 1 billion this time, is that so?"

"Yes, 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 The young entrepreneur said confidently, and the hostess sitting opposite him seemed to have been infected and was slightly excited.

"Mr. Lin, I didn't expect you to have such lofty ambitions at such a young age, can you tell me what is the secret of your success?"

"Believe in yourself and never give up."

I was watching the show intently, and Lu Lingyun had already brought the breakfast I bought to me.

"What are you looking at?" He turned his head to follow my line of sight.

"I didn't expect Xiaoyan to be interested in these as well."

"The revitalization of the Northeast has been such a slogan since I was born, and I don't know when it will be realized." I picked up the bun in the cage drawer and took a hard bite.

"Those who come are all guests, and businessmen from other places should be vigorously supported."

He had a point, and I nodded.

Halfway through breakfast, the other two guests at the table left first, and a mother and daughter came, the mother was very young and looked no more than in her early thirties, and the little girl sat next to me as if she was five or six years old.

The four of us sat at a table and felt a little weird.

When my mother went to order food, the little girl suddenly grabbed my sleeve and asked me in a childish tone.

"Big brother, do you know my brother?"

I shook my head nervously and looked at this cute little girl.

"He's gone, and Mom and Dad say it's going to be a long time before he's back."

"I'm sorry, I really haven't met your brother." I carefully removed the girl's hand, and she was a little disappointed.

"Baby, don't disturb other people's meals." The young mother came back with a plate, and I looked up at her.

A nightmare memory flashed through my mind.

This woman has killed people.

But I don't understand why she can still take her daughter to breakfast now.

"Has Xiaoyan finished eating? I'll send you back after eating. Lu Lingyun wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue, looked at me and asked.

"You go first, I'll have something to do in a while."

"Okay, then you pay attention to safety, the road conditions are not good today."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left the breakfast shop, and I continued to drink the cold white porridge slowly, glancing at the little girl's mother through the afterglow of watching TV.

Her dark brown curls are simply tied together, her face is fair, her cheeks are slightly red, and she doesn't wear too much makeup, and she looks like the kind of housewife who revolves around her children every day.

"Baby, hurry up and eat, I'm going to be late for a while." The mother reached out and touched her daughter's head, and the happy smile made it difficult for me to associate the hideous face with the knife in both hands in the nightmare.

When the mother and daughter finally finished eating and were ready to leave, I followed them out after a while.

The mother was carrying a pink children's schoolbag in one hand and her daughter in the other, and they didn't know what they were talking about, and soon they came to the door of a kindergarten, where the little girl was picked up by the teacher, and the mother stood outside the gate for a long time.

I hid a little far away and didn't get noticed by her.

Even if it looks like a kind sheep on the surface, it may be a bloody wolf on the inside.

Such a woman is terrible, and I suddenly feel worried about the brother in the mouth of the little girl.

The sharp boning knife was thrust into the heart, and the splash of blood stained everything I could see, and the woman's face was sprayed with blood, and her eyes were staring at me with hatred.

I woke up from the nightmare and felt a dull pain in my chest that got better after a few days.

The woman left in front of the kindergarten, and I didn't follow her, even though I knew she was the murderer, but I had no evidence, and I wasn't even qualified to investigate.

When I returned to the Internet café alone, Bai Xue, who was in class, called me.

"Brother Yan, Fifth Brother called early in the morning to ask where you went."

"Oh. What do you say? ”

Bai Xue came out of the bar, put her arms around me, and said flatteringly: "Of course I said you were sleeping, he didn't let me call you, I just wanted to tell you to go to KTV at night, and the fifth brother called the managers of several stores to have a year-end party." ”

Year-end party? What the hell, how did the fifth brother start to learn from those serious companies to do this, forget it, the fifth brother's invitation has to give enough face.

I nodded in agreement.

Bai Xue didn't mean to leave my side, and curiously asked where I had been last night.

"I'm going on a date with my girlfriend, can't you?" I think she should understand when I say that, and the smart girl will be amusefully away from me.

"I don't believe that a girl has never come to you in an Internet café for so long, Brother Yan, don't treat others as little girls."

I withdrew my arm and looked indifferently at Snow's face.

"How long have you been here, how long have you known me, do you really know who I am?"

A series of questions stunned her, perhaps she saw the displeasure on my face, and said resignedly:

"Brother Yan, I just want to know more about you."

"I'm sorry, I didn't want to know about you." After saying that, I walked up to the second floor of the Internet café without looking back, there was my suitcase in the small warehouse, and I took out my diary and found a quiet corner, looking at the past about that mother.

His eyes fell on the lines of handwriting, but his mind regretted the impulse just now, I hurt Bai Xue's heart, it was me who was wrong, maybe it would be better to be a little more tactful.

Her intention of coming to the Internet café from KTV is obvious, she just wants to get close to me, and I can't give her any illusions because I don't deserve it.
