Chapter 31: The Prophecy
The pain coming from all over my body and the marks left on the sheets told me that it was not a dream.
After a while, the mobile phone rang, and Mr. Han on the other end of the phone said irritably: "Lu Yanxi! You're late for your first day of work! I think you're floating! ”
I then remembered that I was going to work at the bookstore today, but now I was really in pain, and I replied weakly: "Mr. Han, I'm a little unwell today." Can you take a leave of absence? ”
"Can't! Xiao Ning has returned to her hometown, you hurry up and die for me! ”
Hey, unscrupulous boss.
After hanging up the phone, I hurriedly changed my bed sheets, put on a casual sportswear and went out.
When I went downstairs, the tearing pain tugged at my nerves, and the thought of what had happened last night made my heart clog uncomfortably. How unlucky it is to happen to this kind of thing?
Born to be his woman? Could it be a past life?
When I arrived at the bookstore, Mr. Han glanced at me and said, "What did you do last night?" How did it get like this? ”
I looked down at the bruises on my body and explained, "I ...... yesterday"
"Oops, forget it, don't explain, young people nowadays are crazy. I've got something to go out for, and I'll leave it to you here. ”
"I ......" I shook my head helplessly, sitting where Xiao Ning had been sitting, and there was a book on the table, telling the story of rebirth, this story is a bit similar to what happened to Lin Muqing and He Mengyang, I casually flipped through a few chapters, and after a while, guests came.
A young mother bought a Xinhua dictionary with her son, and looking at their appearance reminded me of Chenchen and their mother and son. After they were gone, I continued to read the novel on the table, and after a while the door opened, I put down the book and stood up and said, "Welcome, may I ask ......"
Is it He Mengyang, is he here to buy books? I'm no longer surprised by his chance encounter now, and it's possible that it wasn't a chance encounter at all, but that he had been investigating me.
"Mr. He, what type of books do you need?"
"It turns out that you really work here." He Mengyang said, staring at the traces on my body, and then sneered.
"It seems that I misunderstood, you are indeed a gold worshipper."
I blushed, but I couldn't explain to him that the marks were my first impression, but that would save him suspicion.
He Mengyang walked around the bookstore and was about to leave, I stopped him, walked up to him with the book, and said, "Mr. He, this book is for you." ”
He Mengyang glanced down and said, "I never read novels. ”
"No, no, no, you must take a look, okay?" I was so sincere that he took the book and left.
Throughout the day, almost all the people who came to buy and borrow books were elementary school students, and occasionally a few young people came to buy a few novels, and my body was almost recovered.
After getting off work, I took a taxi back to the rental house, but I saw Duanmuyu's mother downstairs, I walked up to her, smiled and said hello: "Hello aunt." ”
When she saw me, she still looked frightened, but she quickly adjusted, straightened her waist, stretched out her hand and said, "Miss Lu, I think we need to talk." ”
"Good. Then go to my house. I reached out to shake her hand, but this time I didn't touch her with my right hand, because then the bracelet would still electrocute me once, and it would be a sting that went deep into my bones. Her right hand and my left handshake were weird, but she didn't seem to care.
Upstairs, in the living room, I poured a glass of water for her and put it in front of her, she waved her hand and said, "Don't be busy, I won't drink." I just want to ask you what it takes for you to leave my son. ”
Her tone was very arrogant, showing the temperament of a noble lady to the fullest. I smiled and didn't say a word, but she took out a check from her bag and put it in front of me, saying, "Here are five million, please leave my son." ”
Oh, my God! This drama is really staged, and what Xu Shaohan said is really right! I admit I'm heartbeat, five million! That's not what I'm trying to achieve, though, I need to know what happened before she was reborn.
I resisted my desires, didn't even look at the check, picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, and said, "Auntie, do you think five million can buy love?" ”
"You! Do you think five million isn't enough? Okay, so how much do you want? Her teeth chattered a little as she spoke, and she didn't know whether she was angry or scared, or both.
"I don't think you can buy love with any amount of money." I replied lightly.
"Can't you be considerate of what it's like to be a mother? All I tell you is that you won't end well together! ”
She trembled with anger, but I still kept a smile on my face and said, "Auntie, can you tell me what this bad result means?" Is it bad for me or bad for him? ”
She obviously didn't expect me to ask such a question, but she still put away the arrogance she had when she had just given me the check, and said with a hint of pleading in her voice, "Please, can you not go down with him, he doesn't pursue you because he likes you." ”
"You...... What do you say? I stood up and asked in surprise, not because I liked it, but because something else? No wonder, no wonder He Mengyang would say those words to me.
She realized that she had slipped her tongue and hurriedly lowered her head, and I asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”
"It's nothing, it's not interesting, I'm just saying it casually." Her gaze was dodgy, like a child who had done something wrong.
I sat down slowly, stabilized my emotions, cut straight to the topic, and said righteously: "Auntie, I know your identity, you are reborn and returned to this world." ”
She looked up at me with wide eyes and a look of disbelief.
"Looks like I'm right."
She picked up the bag she had put aside, stood up and said, "What a madman, I don't understand what you're saying, I'll go first." I'll put the five million here for you, and I'll tell Yu'er that you left him because of the five million. ”
With that, she got up and walked towards the door, and I stood up with it, my right hand clenched, and the silver bracelet glowed with a pale blue light, and then stretched out five fingers towards her, holding her in place.
She realized that she couldn't move, looked back at me and said in horror, "You...... What did you do? ”
I replied coldly: "It doesn't matter what I did, I can kill you at any time for something important, you'd better tell me everything that happened before you were reborn, otherwise, I will kill you today!" ”
"You! Who the hell are you? ”
I didn't answer her question, I kept my old posture, and now it wasn't her turn to speak on my toes in front of me.
