Chapter 015 - Pain Follows You (Part II)
"Let's get out of L.A. first!" Zhao Yang held Zhu Lili's hand.
"Listen to you." Zhu Lili leaned over Zhao Yang: "You rest first, I'll go grocery shopping." ”
"Don't bother, just tomato and egg noodles."
"Got it, the one with the soup." felt empty in his arms, and when Zhao Yang opened his eyes again, the door had already been closed.
There was a sound of changing shoes outside the door, followed by a neighbor talking to Julie: "You are a relative of their family, right?" How's the child's mother? When will you be back? ”
Zhao Yang pricked up his ears, but he didn't hear what Zhu Lili answered.
He stood up, felt his head sink a little, and fell back into the couch with a heavy weight.
In a trance, I seemed to hear someone busy in the kitchen, followed by Nan Sheng's voice: "Tomato and egg noodles are ready!" Quick, let my son come out to eat. ”
He subconsciously responded, opened his eyes, and found that the room was empty.
That kind of emptiness is the emptiness of the heart that cannot be described. He walked to the kitchen door, and as if he could see Nan Sheng with his back to him busy in the kitchen, he imagined himself walking over, wrapping his arms around her waist from behind, and resting his chin on her shoulder.
The difference in height between them is ten centimeters, but when Nan Sheng puts on the shoes, the most perfect kissing distance is formed between them.
His waist is very thin, but he does have some fat on his belly, which was left after giving birth to Zhao Fan.
Once, she also said that she would lose weight, but he wouldn't let her, because she couldn't experience the joy of a man holding his wife from behind, and still pinching the fat with his hands.
It is usually the women themselves who like the model's body, while most men like the slightly chubby ones because they feel good when they are held.
Whenever he did that, Nan Sheng would smile and struggle, and then open him with his hand holding chopsticks or a spatula. Occasionally, he would turn around, symbolically kick him twice, and then hold back a laugh and say over and over again, "How old is you, still playing this?" The child is here, pay attention to the image. ”
Thinking about it, a smile overflowed from the corner of Zhao Yang's mouth, but with a smile, his eyes became wet.
He squatted on the ground with his face covered, and muttered over and over again: "Why? Why punish me in such a way. You can agree to divorce me first, how can we not have feelings after we have been together for so many years? As long as you don't care about me, you just give me more time, I'll be back, I'll come back and live a good life with you. ”
There was no one in the cold kitchen to answer.
Zhao Yang squatted at the kitchen door for a long time, and then dragged his heavy steps to his son's bedroom. He didn't dare to go back to the master bedroom, for fear that all he would see was Nan Sheng's shadow.
He curled up on his son's bed like a baby, pulled his son's quilt over again, and buried his head in it. As if this is the only way to forget what has happened, to pretend that nothing has happened yet.
Julie buys tomatoes and eggs, only to find that both elevators have stopped.
She wanted to wait in front of the elevator and ask about the situation when she met someone. Thinking about it, if she walked up from the stairs, it would be more able to set off her hardships and difficulties, so she pushed open the door of the fire escape and carried things up the stairs.
She slowly climbed from the first floor to the fifth floor, and seeing that there were still so many steps above, she was stunned, and simply turned from the staircase to the elevator again, wanting to see if the elevator was back in operation.
As soon as I came out of the staircase, I saw a person standing in the middle of the two elevators.
She walked over with her things and asked, "Are you downstairs?" Why did the elevator stop on the 32nd floor? ”
"Because this elevator recognizes people!" The man turned suddenly, but startled Julie.
Looking at the back, looking at the dress, she thought it was a little girl in her early twenties at most, but her face was full of furrows, and she had to be in her fifties or older than her age.
She took two steps back in fright, and put one hand on her chest to calm her heartbeat.
"This elevator is only for the owner?"
"No, this elevator is only for good people." The woman moved down to her, her black waterfall hair falling and covering most of her face. "I know who you are, and the woman upstairs killed herself because of you. Don't try to escape, she will haunt you until the day you die. And your family, none of them can escape. ”
Julili was a little frightened, looking at the woman and not knowing how to react.
"There is a wrong, there is a debtor, you are a bad woman, you must not die a good death." The woman's eyes were surprisingly bright, and she looked at her, the corners of her mouth upward, bending in a strange arc.
Just when Julie held his breath and wanted to shout, "I'm not a bad woman!" The woman in front of her suddenly disappeared.
She jerked to the elevator and found two people standing in the elevator, one of whom was the woman who had just met her. But unlike what she remembers, she actually led a dog.
As the elevator door slowly closed, she heard the woman say to the person next to her, "What floor is that woman on?" Why do I think she's not in good spirits? ”
"I don't know, I haven't seen it, maybe it's a tenant who just moved in. Everything in our community is good, but there are too many vacant houses and too many rented out, so that there are all kinds of messy people living upstairs. ”
"I haven't seen her on our level."
"Who has seen it before?"
As the elevator doors closed and their conversation vanished, Julie couldn't help but grit his teeth as he looked at the declining numbers.
The elevator next to it also began to resume operation, from the 32nd floor, to the 31st floor, to the 30th floor...... When it stopped on the fifth floor, Julie turned around and returned to the staircase.
She called Zhao Yang and wanted to ask him if there was a woman in this building who looked very young with her back but was actually very old. But every time I dialed it, either no one answered, or the phone was connected, but there was no sound on the other side.
After dialing the phone for the last time, she didn't hear Zhao Yang's voice, but heard a cat meow.
The cat's meow was so sharp that she almost threw her phone away. After settling her mind, she walked upstairs quickly and climbed up from the fifth floor in one go. As soon as he took out the key, the meow of the cat came from behind.
Julie was so frightened that he dropped the whole set of keys on the ground. Just as she pretended to be calm and bent down to pick it up, she saw a pair of legs.
Those legs are very similar to Nan Sheng's.
She jerked her head up and saw that the hallway was empty. I walked over boldly, but I didn't see half a figure.
She quickly turned back to the door, but the key could not be inserted into the lock hole with a trembling key, and just as she was about to cry, the door opened from the inside.
"Zhao Yang!" She sobbed and threw herself into Zhao Yang's arms, but Zhao Yang just frowned and looked down at her: "Why are you like her, you can't open the door with the key." If you can't open it, forget it, and cry. How old are you, can you still be a little bit promising? ”
"Zhao Yang, I'm afraid, I think there's something wrong with this building."
"What's wrong?"
"In this building...... There seems to be a ghost in this building. Julie lowered his voice: "There really are ghosts!" ”
