On Thursday, a light rain fell in Silverwood.

Lin Yingti doesn't like rainy days, she leans on the window to watch a group of children passing by in front of the door, they are holding small umbrellas, carrying school bags, holding hands and stepping over mud puddles to go to school.

When Jiang Xiyue read the story to her, she also noticed that she was absent-minded, so she simply stopped talking and looked out the window with her, and the raindrops hung on the eaves.

"Do you want to play with them?"

Lin Yingti shook her head, "They don't like me, so I don't like them either." “

Jiang Xiyue smiled.

Lin Yingti liked to see him laugh, so he said, "I sent out a thank you letter for teaching me." ”

Jiang Xiyue was slightly stunned, and her tone sounded nothing unusual.

"Really? What does the other party say? ”

Lin Yingti shook her head, she remembered the very gentle woman in the clinic, she saw her thank you letter with a strange expression, as for how strange it was, she couldn't say it.

Seeing that she couldn't say anything, Jiang Xiyue said helplessly: "Forget it." ”

Lin Yingti looked at him and suddenly opened his mouth, "Are you going to leave here?" ”

Jiang Xiyue tilted her head and thought for a while, "It should be possible." ”

Lin Yingti stopped talking, she never thought about what would happen if Jiang Xiyue left, her brain refused to think about complicated things, and she didn't know how she was brought here.

So she was curious about Jiang Xiyue's situation, "How did you get here?" ”

Jiang Xiyue recounted in a calm tone: "Your mother worked as a nanny in my house for a while, and then took advantage of the fact that my parents were not at home, fed me milk mixed with sleeping pills, and ran out of the house. ”

"What they're doing right now is not doing the right thing, are you going to help them?"

Lin Yingti's eyes widened, and she suddenly became angry, "I didn't help them!" ”

"I know."

Jiang Xiyue paused and continued, "They may not be your parents. ”

Lin Yingti quieted down and pursed her lips tightly.

After a few seconds, she whispered, "Then why didn't my mom and dad come to me." ”

"I may have looked for it, but I didn't find it."

Lin Yingti quieted down, her hair grew a little longer, the black hair was scattered on her shoulders, she hugged her knees with her hands, lowered her head and said nothing.

Jiang Xiyue softened her tone and said step by step: "Do you want to see them?" ”

Lin Yingti's face was dazed for a moment, she buried her head lower, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't know." ”

"Why?"

Lin Yingti couldn't tell why, and she was a little scared for no reason.

"Are you afraid they don't want you?"

was slammed into the hidden corner of his heart, Lin Yingti pursed her lips tightly and turned her head away.

"No, it won't."

Jiang Xiyue's smile is like the bright moon in the sky, but it is like the bright moon hidden behind the dark clouds, it seems to be true and false, and it is not real.

"There is no parent in the world who doesn't want their children."

Lin Yingti's tense body relaxed.

"If you're afraid that they won't accept you after you leave here, you can come to my house."

“..... Your home? ”

Jiang Xiyue's tone slowed down, "Would you like to?" ”

He just looked at Lin Yingti quietly, watching her facial expression gradually change.

Lin Yingti lowered his head, looked at his dirty clothes, couldn't help but glance at him, and said cautiously: "Is it okay?" ”

"Absolutely." Jiang Xiyue made a promise to her, "As long as you and I get out of here." ”

Lin Yingti's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, and her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her skirt.

Just as he was about to say something, there was movement in the courtyard downstairs, Lin Yingti was startled, and immediately walked out of the house lightly after reacting.

Before closing the door, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xiyue, and when she saw that he was looking at her with a faint smile, she immediately withdrew her gaze like an electric shock, and closed the door with a panicked expression.

After the door closed, the smile on Jiang Xiyue's face gradually disappeared.

He turned his head to look at the small window above, which was even small to prevent him from escaping.

The moonlight poured in and fell on his quiet, cold face, and he closed his eyes and leaned against the wall.

It's coming, wait a little longer.

It had rained outside for a day, Wang Yan and Zheng Guoli came back a little early, and after Lin Yingti finished the meal, he hid in his room, and only went out when he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.

After dinner, Lin Yingti was washing dishes in the kitchen, she was a little short, she couldn't even reach the stove, she could only stand on tiptoe, foam splashed on her face, she couldn't help blinking.

In the living room, Wang Yan and Zheng Guoli were whispering something, and Lin Yingti couldn't help but prick up her ears and hold her breath

"You said that the kid knew what we looked like, wouldn't there be some trouble?"

Zheng Guoli took a hard puff of his cigarette, "I have been thinking about this question for a long time, if that's the case..."

He gestured around his neck, and his eyes lit up with a fierce and fierce light.

"What about over there? If they don't get people..."

"Whatever, I'll take the money first, maybe we'll all go abroad by then."

"Anyway, don't agree to pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, this kind of fraud is nine times out of ten, pay the money first and then say, now it is their son in our hands, it is they who should compromise and regress, not us."

"We'll have to deal with that girl before we leave."

"Didn't Brother Zhang contact her before? We've been raising her for so long, it's time for something to change. ”

Lin Yingti's face turned pale and she bit her lip stubbornly.

When Jiang Xiyue saw Lin Yingti, she was slightly stunned.

The girl in front of her had a pale face and pale lips.

"What's wrong with you?"

Lin Yingti didn't speak, sat silently in front of him, slightly bent his legs and hugged his knees, eager to shrink himself into a small ball, no one could see it.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Xiyue knew that she must have something on her mind, so she didn't rush to speak up, just sat quietly with her, waiting for her to take the initiative to speak.

Lin Yingti raised his eyes from his knees and looked at him, "You...... Will it take me away? ”

Jiang Xiyue smiled slightly and snorted.

Lin Yingti stopped talking, she stood up and walked outside, she was wearing an old white dress, her hair was a little longer, her body was slender and thin, she really didn't look like a child of this age.

Jiang Xiyue said, "See you tomorrow." ”

Lin Yingti turned his head and smiled faintly at him, "See you tomorrow." ”

The next night, Jiang Xiyue looked out of the house through the window, there was no moon tonight, the wind was strong outside, the downpour was slanting, the sky and the earth seemed to be shrouded in the vast night, as if something big was about to happen.

His face was calm, as if he was patiently waiting for something,

With a squeak, the door opened, and Lin Yingti walked in, she was wearing a raincoat and holding a flashlight in her hand.

Jiang Xiyue's eyes moved slightly,

She didn't speak, silently untied the rope from his body,

Finally unrestrained, Jiang Xiyue moved her wrist and looked up at her.

"Are you going to let me go?"

The girl's weak but firm voice said, "Let's go together." ”

Today was the best time, her parents had drunk a lot and should have fallen asleep, and it was raining outside, and she couldn't hear them climbing over the wall to go out.

Outside, lightning and thunder roared, and the wind was raging, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be connected into a vast ocean.

The two children fled into the sea without looking back, holding hands and holding hands.

Lin Yingti was out of breath and didn't dare to stop, she was afraid that she would lose the courage to continue moving forward as soon as she stopped.

She was held by the hand and kept running forward, with the whirring wind in her ears, and the bean-sized raindrops hit her face mercilessly, and she didn't feel pain.

The heart in her chest was about to jump out at any moment, and she knew she would be done if she was caught.

Not far away, there were flashlights and the sound of footsteps.

Lin Yingti took Jiang Xiyue and fled into the cornfield in a panic.

The corn fields are hundreds of acres, and the tall corn stalks cover the sky and the sun, and when you walk in, it is like walking into a miniature version of the primeval forest.

The two of them quickly lost their way inside, and to make matters worse, they both got separated.

Torrential rain poured down, lightning and thunder.

Lin Yingti struggled to open her eyes, her face was full of rain, she wanted to shout Jiang Xiyue's name loudly, but her mouth disappeared into the roaring thunder.

She shrunk herself into a small ball in fear, trying to cover her ears, and couldn't help but think about it.

What if Jiang Xiyue has already gone out?

What if he left himself?

Lin Yingti could only bury his head deep in his knees, his body twitched slightly, and suddenly, a familiar voice came from the rain curtain.

"Don't cry."

Lin Yingti raised her head and looked at the person in a daze.

The young man's face couldn't really be seen in the rain, he squatted in front of him, his voice was still as clear and light as ever, he couldn't tell the rain and tears on her face in the heavy rain, but he still reached out and gently wiped her face.

"I said I wouldn't leave you."

He took her hand and whispered in her ear.

"Run."

Before he could react, Lin Yingti was led forward by someone.

The roaring rain grew louder, and the two of them held hands tightly and shuttled desperately through the green cornfields.

Crazy like the end of the world in the next second.

The line of sight in front of them finally gradually widened, and a faint light penetrated through, and finally they drilled out of the cornfield,

Looking at the open oil road in front of them, the two children burst out laughing.

At this moment, the light of a flashlight flickered in the dark night, and finally stopped on the faces of the two men.

Lin Yingti's face suddenly turned pale and froze in place, because he was too frightened, his body couldn't help but start trembling.

Jiang Xiyue protected Lin Yingti behind her, her thin lips pursed, and her cold dark eyes stared at the black figure at the light source for a moment.

"Found it! Those two kids are here! ”

Unexpectedly, the person who came was an uncle in a hat,

As soon as he opened his mouth, more people immediately appeared.

Lin Yingti found out that in the rain, there were many police cars with flashing lights

Among them was a black sedan, and a young couple came down, dressed up well.

The man held an umbrella, and the people around him were respectful to them.

Lin Yingti lowered her head and glanced at her empty hand, stunned.

Jiang Xiyue let go of her hand and walked towards the couple step by step.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and Lin Yingti felt that his vision was gradually blurred.

She looked at the beautiful woman and helped Jiang Xiyue wipe the stains off her face in distress, while the man helped hold the umbrella.

She stood at this end, Jiang Xiyue stood at that end, and there seemed to be something in between.

Lin Yingti was seven years old that year.

It was also the first time that I felt that she and Jiang Xiyue were people of two worlds.

This feeling will be with you for the rest of the year.
