Chapter 28: The Shadow of the Lonely Grave (2)
The vacant seat was put by Wenwen with a neat pair of dishes and chopsticks, Lin Kang was a little cautious at first thinking that Wenwen was deliberately teasing him, but after she said these words, Lin Kang no longer suspected that Wenwen had a special motive, she really saw Lin Kang's so-called "father" sitting in that position.
Lin Kang picked up the dishes and chopsticks stiffly, his eyes never dared to leave the empty seat next to him, he was afraid that if he lowered his head to eat and raised his head again, he would see an unfamiliar face sitting there smiling at him.
"Kangkang, let Dad move the chopsticks first~" Wenwen's doting voice was completely out of tune with the suffocating atmosphere that Lin Kang felt.
This meal Lin Kang ate very hard, and such a delicious meal was no different from a rancid steamed bun in his mouth, which made it difficult for Lin Kang to swallow. So after simply picking a few bites of food, Lin Kang excused himself to be uncomfortable and wanted to go back to the room to rest first, but when he stood up, Wenwen stretched out his hand and grabbed him. Lin Kang's body shook slightly, and he turned his head to see Wenwen's extremely dissatisfied eyes.
"Kangkang, do you still understand some of the rules, and you won't sit with him for a while when Dad comes back?" Wenwen's face and cold voice suddenly seemed to have lost all expressions, like a stiff and strong hand, and forcibly bent Lin Kang's already stiff legs, Lin Kang sat back on the chair nervously, and his palms were already full of sweat.
For the next ten minutes, Wenwen regained her original expression and gentle voice. "How have you been out all these years?"
"Oh, I'll take good care of you when I come back."
"It's okay, I'm your wife, I should be."
Lin Kang listened and watched Wenwen's every word and every move, and all the subtle expressions facing the empty seat were seen by Lin Kang, and he had to admit that immersed in this strange atmosphere, Lin Kang even defaulted to outlining an illusory existence in his brain to sit in that position and communicate cordially with Wenwen. This feeling just came out of Lin Kang had a feeling of being unstoppable, and at that moment he really felt that his father was sitting there, and as he imagined, tall and handsome. But in just a few seconds, he would wake up again in this immersive fantasy picture, like a seriously ill schizophrenic, he warned himself over and over again that he could not walk into this feeling, and his intuition told him that there was a lot of murder in it.
The dinner that finally ended seemed to Lin Kang to be the end of a death penalty case that had been prosecuted, and the result was also unexpectedly acquitted. Lin Kang quickly stood up, tried to control his already sluggish spirit, dragged his body back to his room, and fell on his bed as soon as he tilted his body, Simmons's softness came from his back, which made Lin Kang's tension relieve a lot.
Nightfall is something that many people look forward to from the moment they wake up in the morning, office workers, lazy people and students who don't like to study, the evening is a temporary liberation for them, but the night is not so desirable for some people. Lin Kang had been lying in bed for a full hour, he was very sleepy, but he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. Ever since Wenwen had a strange behavior in the afternoon, Lin Kang felt that there was something unusual in this room, this feeling was not intuitive, it was that he suddenly thought of a shiver when he entered the door in the afternoon, he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now he suddenly remembered what that shiver meant. The temperature outside this season already requires at least two thin long-sleeved clothes, and when you suddenly walk into the house in a low temperature outside, you don't feel any warmth, but there is a chill that rushes straight to your head, that is to say, maybe from the moment Lin Kang enters the door, maybe earlier, the temperature in the house has already been lower than outside.
Thinking like this, Lin Kang was even more sleepy, and after turning off the light, the darkness in the room was like the open mouth of a fierce beast, with the momentum of devouring everything. On the other hand, outside, with the light of a few stars, I can barely see the persimmon tree planted in the yard, but autumn is coming to winter, and the persimmon tree that is flourishing in summer has lost its former vitality, like an old man in his twilight years, and even coughing may tear off his spine.
Looking at it, Lin Kang's mood slowly calmed down, a strong drowsiness struck, Lin Kang didn't have time to completely close his eyes, his spirit had already fallen asleep, in the hazy sight before his eyes were closed, the rotten wood-like persimmon tree moved violently, like a strong wind, stirring up the light of the stars outside to drag out a long tail line. In any case, the scene that Lin Kang saw before going to bed was manic with a hint of tranquility and a bit of fantasy in monotony, such a bedtime scene was extremely good for anyone, so Lin Kang slept very comfortably and comfortably that night...... I almost couldn't wake up the next day......
The next morning was exceptionally good, and the air outside was as clean and fresh as if it had been washed by rain. Wenwen made breakfast and Lin Kang hadn't gotten up yet, but she knew that Lin Kang wasn't going to school today, so she didn't rush to wake him up, but until noon, Lin Kang's room still didn't make any sound, Wenwen vaguely felt that something not very good had happened, people are always like this, and the explosive power brought by a momentary thought is far more than the power that can be shown after a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that Wenwen kicked open the door of Lin Kang's room, but even such a big movement did not cause Lin Kang to wake up or even turn over.
"Kangkang, Kangkang, what's wrong with you, wake up......" Wenwen controlled her strength and slapped Lin Kang's face, but Lin Kang's deep sleep was like losing his soul, maybe he didn't want to wake up, but he couldn't wake up at all.
"Kangkang! Don't scare your mother! Wenwen's heart suddenly had an unprecedented sense of fear, which was more serious than the previous two car accidents, and this time, she felt that Lin Kang might really be leaving her. Kangkang, you can rest assured! Mommy won't let you have any problems! Wenwen's current state made her feel very strange, but mixed with a very distant familiar breath. There was no time to think at all, Wenwen pulled up Lin Kang and wanted to shake off her sadness, she suddenly remembered that one day a few years ago, she was also like this, stubbornly thinking that Lin Kang was not dead, and finally God took pity on her and sent her Kang Kang back. It's just that this time he wasn't so lucky, Lin Kang is no longer the child who can simply hang in the air with his arms and let him experience the feeling of flying at will, his weight has long exceeded the upper limit of Wenwen's arm strength, so in such a flick of time, Wenwen not only felt that the weight on her back had increased, but felt that even the weight in her hand had disappeared, and Lin Kang was firmly dropped on the wall next to him.
"Ah...... Uh......" Lin Kang said to himself while covering the big bag that was swollen by the impact of the wall, "What's the situation, it's early in the morning, it's ...... early."
Before Lin Kang's words were finished, Wenwen jumped up and hugged Lin Kang, the snot that she had been trying to rush out was surging back and forth in Wenwen's nasal cavity with her breath unevenly, Lin Kang's hands were at a loss for what to do, just like when he had just woken up from a car accident, the only difference was that this time he did not lose his memory, including the dream that entangled him when he was asleep, it was like a dream with independent consciousness and life, it desperately prevented Lin Kang from waking up, but was accidentally rescued by Wenwen, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
It's just that this dream made Lin Kang still have lingering palpitations until now, so he decided to go to his grandmother's house, maybe she could have a different opinion......
