Chapter 19: Encounters
While talking, Shen Jingyun no longer looked at me, but turned back to sort out the buttons that had been untied because of the intimacy just now, and I didn't know why, after hearing him say "He knows", my heart ached and I couldn't breathe.
At that moment, I felt that Shen Jingyun had really distanced himself from me, I would rather him be angry, I would rather him be angry, and I was afraid to face his peace.
This kind of calm is like a pool of stagnant water, without any emotion, and with my understanding of Shen Jingyun, when he is polite and thoughtful about one thing, and his emotions are calm and calm, then he definitely does not take this matter to heart with this person, which is isolated from his world.
I was so heartbroken, wasn't it because I felt that Shen Jingyun wanted to drive me out of his world when he said this.
I clenched my fingers, my nails pierced my palms, and only then could I try to calm down, not to beg him, not to tell him how sad I was, how ...... I was Like him.
Even, maybe he will pull his arm, lower his posture to please him, the intimacy just now, I don't resist, even like it, as long as he doesn't feel sad, don't be indifferent to me, and continue to like me.
These thoughts were churning in my head, and the tingling of my palms finally made my heart no longer hurt so much, and I could barely keep it calm.
I also sat up from the couch and began to slowly tidy up my messy clothes with some numbness, I think I must be a little embarrassed at the moment. But I still wanted to preserve the last bit of self-esteem, so I pulled the mirror out of my bag.
I looked at myself in the glasses, my hair was messy, and the makeup on my face was messy, so I pulled out my powder and lipstick and started to touch up my makeup, because I looked so haggard and deenergetic in the mirror.
Actually, I didn't do anything, but my face was born from my heart, and my mood was completely reflected on my face.
At this time, Shen Jingyun had already tidied up his clothes, and when he turned around and saw me touching up my makeup, his eyes did not fluctuate, but he said to me: "You are really in the mood, you can still touch up your makeup at this time." ”
I looked up at Shen Jingyun and opened my mouth, but I didn't say anything.
What am I going to say? Did I tell him that I wanted to touch up my makeup to make myself look more energetic and casual because I was trying to hide my sadness?
I don't regret what I did just now, I think with Shen Jingyun's cleverness, he won't know that I like him, and I'm only grateful to Helian Cheng, but what I can't get over in my heart is just his attitude towards Lin Ruolan.
It's been a long time, I thought I had let go and forgotten, but seeing Shen Jingyun's momentary hesitation just now, I'm afraid I didn't let go, it was him who didn't forget, right?
Thinking of this, my heart hardened a little harder, so it's okay, I was originally in a state of torture, Shen Jingyun helped me solve the problem, and from then on we could distance ourselves from each other openly.
So, in the face of Shen Jingyun's ridicule, I just smiled and continued to touch up my makeup as if nothing happened.
During this period, I saw his eyes through the mirror, and suddenly coldened, it didn't matter, he could mock me casually, knowing that I was sad and hurt me, why couldn't I use calm to deal with his calm?
There was an inexplicable awkwardness of indifference between us, and at this moment, there was a noise from the ceiling, and Shen Jingyun and I were both vigilant at the same time.
This is the basement, and the sound of footsteps from the ceiling can only indicate that someone has entered the house, who else will come in this room except Wang Yun?
"When you came down, did you restore everything?" Shen Jingyun asked me hurriedly.
Fortunately, I paid attention when I came down, and I moved the TV cabinet back with some difficulty, and also moved the floor tiles back, so Wang Yun should not find any traces in the house.
I nodded and said to Shen Jingyun, "I've dealt with everything." ”
Shen Jingyun glanced at me, glanced at me, and then strode towards a corner of this basement, which was the corner where the man had left before.
Of course, I understood what Shen Jingyun was going to do, so I quickly stood up, sorted out the traces on the sofa, and followed.
Knowing the location of the secret door, it is not difficult to find it, and soon, after Shen Jingyun rubbed for a while, he found the location of the secret door, and the secret door was behind a layer of posters, if he didn't know that there was a secret door there, it would be difficult to find it for a while.
During this time, there was a constant noise from the ceiling, and people who came out and entered the house could be heard putting down their things and walking back and forth a few times, which seemed to be the sound of drinking water.
While Shen Jingyun was looking for the secret door, the footsteps had already walked towards the entrance of the basement.
Shen Jingyun and I entered the secret door without hesitation, and processed all the traces, and at the moment of entering the door, we already heard the sound of the TV cabinet being dragged. At this moment, it would be false to say that I was not nervous, and when I entered the door, Shen Jingyun and I both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
And at this time, I was able to calm down and take a look at our surroundings. As expected, this is a dark tunnel, very rough, just a simple fool with cement.
Because it was too dark, I couldn't see what was ahead clearly, and just as I was observing my surroundings, Shen Jingyun turned on his flashlight and said "go" to me.
The bright light in the dark can always make people feel more at ease, and looking at Shen Jingyun's back, it can also give me a sense of peace of mind at this time, and I followed Shen Jingyun towards the front without hesitation.
But after walking less than ten meters, Shen Jingyun and I were stunned, because less than ten meters in front of us was a corner, and there were three forks in the corner.
Shen Jingyun and I are here for the first time, who knows which fork in the road to take?
Therefore, I said to Shen Jingyun: "Choose one to go down first, if it is a dead end, it is better to retreat." ”
When I said this, I couldn't help but feel strange in my heart, Wang Yun cultivated a secret passage, originally according to the clues I got, just to enjoy an unknown luxury life, why did he make this underground secret passage so complicated? Then, this can only confirm my and Shen Jingyun's previous guesses, there are more secrets buried under this house.
After listening to my proposal, Shen Jingyun said lightly: "No, you can't just choose a path to go." Wang Yun is not a simple woman, you can also see that she has too many secrets. And a person can hide secrets for so long without being discovered, which can only show that she is a thoughtful person, and she has built three forks here, which must have a deep meaning. And there is no doubt that one of these three paths hides her biggest secret, and I don't think she can be defenseless. I don't think it's easy to try, in case you hit some traps, traps, etc., you'll be in trouble. ”
Speaking of this, Shen Jingyun glanced at me: "Of course I'm not afraid of her, it's not good for us to expose the matter in advance." The premise is that you still want to continue investigating, if you are curious. ”
I didn't speak, and between the words, I could already feel Shen Jingyun's faint alienation from me, and even excluded me from participating in this operation anymore, but I was unwilling to give up this investigation.
So I made myself look nervous and asked him, "So what do you say you should do?" ”
Shen Jingyun probably didn't expect me to ask him like this, because in his feelings, I am independent, and I am a girl who is good at thinking for herself, and I haven't said such a dependent thing to him for a long time.
But these things are just subtle feelings between the two of them, so he can only say to me: "That man just left just now, so there should be footprints or something left." If you look at it, you will know which way is the right way to get out. ”
After all, I couldn't help it, and glanced at Shen Jingyun with admiration, no matter what the relationship between him and me is, I have to admit that this man is excellent and full of charm.
I just wanted to observe with Shen Jingyun, but at this time, there was a sound at the passage when we came, and my heart immediately lifted, who else could enter the passage so quickly and so easily? It can only be Wang Yun.
Shen Jingyun's reaction was even faster than mine, and he immediately turned off the flashlight and pulled me to hide around the corner.
There is no shelter here, even if we hide here now, Wang Yun will see us at first sight when he walks over. Without a choice, Shen Jingyun only pulled me and walked lightly into the rightmost passage.
Leaning on the left side of the passage, firmly clinging to the body, this is a choice without choice, only this place, after Wang Yun enters the passage, he will not see us for the first time, because this is a blind spot of vision, and the rest is only left to fate.
With a two-thirds probability, Wang Yun will not choose this channel.
As Wang Yun's footsteps got closer and closer, my heart became more and more nervous, it stands to reason that with Shen Jingyun by my side, I shouldn't feel so scared, but Wang Yun, this woman, gives me a feeling that is too weird, and in the depths of my heart, I care very much about the results of the investigation of this matter, I always feel inexplicable, this will have a lot to do with me.
That's why I'm so nervous, and because of nervousness, I involuntarily grabbed Shen Jingyun's arm.
Shen Jingyun glanced at me in surprise, in the dark, I felt that his eyes were so indifferent, which made me feel sad in the bottom of my heart, and I couldn't help but let go.
But Shen Jingyun's movements were faster than mine, and with a flick, he broke away from my hand, but before I could feel the heartache, my hand was held by his hand.
Then, his deep voice came to his ears: "Can you breathe quietly?" Knowing you're useless, pull me, it'll be better. ”
I didn't expect Shen Jingyun to do this at all, thinking of the indifference, alienation and embarrassment between us just now...... In the face of this man, I was moved and guilty again, and I couldn't help but use a slight force when I held his hand.
In response, his hand tightened even harder on me.
And by this time, that footstep had already gone around the corner.
