Chapter 113
The place where Ge Weinong and Lin Keni live is very marketable, which is an ordinary community building where ordinary people live.
Before going upstairs, you have to walk through a pedestrian street full of carts and food stalls on both sides.
The car could not come in, so they got off the car and walked over.
When the snack street was about to come to an end, Mu Xueyi’s hands were already full of egg filled cakes, hawthorn snowballs, cumin fried sausages, nuts and gluten, braised pork burritos, and spicy rice noodles.
Lin Keni picked them up downstairs, and when she saw Mu Xueyi, her eyes widened in shock.
“Why did you buy so many things?” Seeing that Mu Xueyi had to lean on a cane, she quickly helped her take a large portion of it. “Where’s Mr. Zhou? She won’t help you take it?”
As soon as the words fell, she saw Zhou Zhenyue come over with a sullen face.
Those two hands, with a plastic bag hanging from each finger, left no room for anything.
Qinzhen rice skin, salt-baked chicken drumsticks, fruit-wood roasted duck, fried pancakes with vegetables, spicy duck necks, marinated vegetables in red oil, fried chicken chops, small skewers of duck intestines, sauce-flavored pig trotters, rice **** with mixed grains…
Lin Keni was amazed, “I’ve lived here for so long, I didn’t even know that there are so many kinds of snacks here.”
Mu Xueyi smiled and said: “It’s been a long time since I ate a roadside stall, I want to eat everything I see. It’s okay, I’ll eat slowly while playing mahjong. If we can’t finish eating, we’ll play all night and eat while playing. Tomorrow is the weekend anyway.”
Zhou Zhenyue sighed very lightly.
The three walked into the entrance of the building together and prepared to go upstairs.
Just after get off work, the mother who brought her child home pushed the electric car into the elevator, and the old man with the dog also entered the elevator. The size of the elevator was average, and it suddenly squeezed Zhou Zhenyue and Mu Xueyi to the farthest corner.
Mu Xueyi originally saw the electric car coming up and wanted to go down, but the car blocked her directly and couldn’t move at all.
The dog led by the old man came around curiously, his nose arched **** Mu Xueyi’s trouser legs, obviously interested in the bag of meat she was carrying.
Mu Xueyi is not afraid of dogs, but today this is just German Shepherd.
German Shepherd…
As soon as the dog rubbed against her calf, she instinctively exclaimed and stepped back.
But the elevator room was so small, and she basically had nowhere to go. Only two steps back, she bumped into Zhou Zhenyue’s shoulder.
Zhou Zhenyue immediately turned to the side, blocking the middle of Mu Xueyi and the dog.
She lowered her head, stared closely at the dog, and gave a gentle hiss.
The dog was very clever, and immediately sat back, wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue.
Mu Xueyi crossed Zhou Zhenyue’s shoulder, glanced at the dog with lingering fear, and exhaled.
Immediately, his eyes fell on the back in front of her again.
Eye sockets could not help but slightly sour.
He glanced at the ground quickly, holding back the tears.
When the elevator reached the floor, the electric cars and the old man standing at the door went down one after another.
When leaving, the old man who led the dog expressed his apology to Mu Xueyi, and Mu Xueyi said with a smile that it was okay.
When I arrived at Ge Wei Nong and Lin Keni’s house, I changed into slippers and saw Ge Wei Nong cooking hot pot soup in the kitchen.
Ge Weinong reached out with a spatula and greeted them: “Come on? Sit first.”
Lin Keni led them to sit down on the sofa, and enthusiastically took out a clean glass and poured a cold drink to quench their thirst.
Mu Xueyi took a few sips of the drink, then stood up suddenly, walked to Lin Keni and whispered a few words to her, and then walked to the balcony of the back room.
After entering the door, the door closed.
Zhou Zhenyue watched her leave suddenly, and asked Lin Keni, “What happened to her?”
Lin Keni smiled and said, “It’s alright, she said that she was scared by the dog just now, and wanted to be alone. Mr. Zhou, sit down first, and you’ll be out later.”
Hearing what Lin Keni said, Zhou Zhenyue always felt that something was not right, but she couldn’t tell.
She sat quietly for a while, but couldn’t feel at ease.
Just as she was about to get up to have a look, Lin Keni immediately stopped her: “Mr. Zhou, give Xueyi some personal space, and wait patiently for a while.”
Zhou Zhenyue frowned: “Are you hiding something from me?”
Lin Keni: “There is nothing to hide from you, you are too heartless.”
Ge Weilong heard the voice, came out of the kitchen, and asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Lin Keni gave her a wink and glanced at the closed door of the inner room.
The expression on Ge Weinong’s face froze, he stood up immediately, stood in front of the door, and said straight to Zhou Zhenyue, “You can’t go in.”
…so anomalous.
If Lin Keni and Ge Weinong hadn’t stopped her like this, Zhou Zhenyue might not have gone in. But the two people’s reaction is too strange.
Her eyes were frozen, and she took a step forward.
“Step aside.”
Ge Weilong firmly refused: “You can’t come in.”
Lin Keni persuaded: “Mr. Zhou, listen to me, just wait a while…”
Zhou Zhenyue repeated coldly, “Get out of the way.”
Ge Weilong showed no signs of letting go. On the contrary, his fists clenched faintly, as if he was ready to block with his limbs at any time.
The atmosphere in the small living room suddenly became dignified, like a taut string, on the verge of breaking out.
The situation seemed to get out of control.
The tightly closed door behind Ge Weinong suddenly “clicked” with a sound.
Mu Xueyi opened the door and looked at them with a light smile, her face was very calm, as if nothing major happened as she imagined.
“What are you arguing about?”
All three turned to look at her.
Ge Weilong and Lin Keni both had worried expressions.
“Okay, stop arguing, it’s okay.”
Mu Xueyi came out and shook his head to Ge Wei Nong and Lin Keni, “Don’t worry.”
Then she took Zhou Zhenyue’s hand and whispered to the other party, “Come on, Ayue, come in.”
Seeing the two walk into the back room side by side, Ge Weilong and Lin Keni looked at each other.
Ge Weinong’s heart is still hanging, “…Can it be done?”
Lin Keni patted her shoulder, “Xueyi can handle it well, trust her.”
In the dark back room, no lights were turned on.
The balcony is covered with soft carpet and there are several futon cushions on the carpet.
The windows are open.
The evening breeze was blowing on the cheeks and the temples, as if it could slowly cool down all the emotions.
Mu Xueyi pulled Zhou Zhenyue to sit down. After sitting down, still holding each other’s hand.
“It’s okay, I was just scared by the dog,” she pinched Zhou Zhenyue’s tiger’s mouth and looked at her softly, “I’m afraid you’ll be worried, so I want to adjust it by myself.”
Zhou Zhenyue was silent for a moment, then said, “Looking at Ge Weinong’s reaction, it’s not as simple as just being afraid of dogs.”
Mu Xueyi leaned forward, leaned on Zhou Zhenyue’s shoulder, and smiled at her, “They are overreacting, it’s because I didn’t make it clear to Keni, which caused a little misunderstanding between you. It’s mine. Wrong, I apologize to you, don’t be angry.”
Seeing the slightly flattering smile on Mu Xueyi’s face, Zhou Zhenyue sighed.
After a while, she asked again, “But I remember you’re not afraid of dogs?”
“I’m not afraid of dogs, I’m just afraid of German Shepherds.”
Mu Xueyi raised her eyes, looked at the night scene outside the window, and licked her lower lip.
“Okay, I know you must ask why you are only afraid of the German Shepherd. I’ll tell you directly.”
Zhou Zhenyue: “…Well.”
The night was reflected in Mu Xueyi’s pupils, filled with gorgeous light and elusive bleakness.
“When I was young… It seems that at the age of eight, Mu Guocheng went abroad for more than half a year to do business. Before he left, in order to appease Mu Ruqing, he gave Mu Ruqing a German shepherd as a gift.”
“One day when we were playing in the yard, Mu Ruqing deliberately loosened the rope of the German Shepherd and ordered the dog to bite me. I ran around the yard twice, but still couldn’t run. The dog bit my calf. Later, I went to the hospital and had about 40 stitches.”
For the most tragic process, she downplayed the past.
“Afterwards, the injury was healed, but there was a scar. Mu Ruqing was afraid of being offended, so she forcibly pressed me and went to the hospital for laser scar removal surgery for six months in a row. Laser scar removal is basically to cut the scar on the flesh. Rotten and charred, allowing new meat to grow. I can clearly smell my own meat being charred when I cook it.”
“It’s very effective. Half a year later, the scar has been completely removed, leaving almost no evidence.”
Hearing this, Zhou Zhenyue frowned, her hands clenched into fists.
Mu Xueyi chuckled, “I tried to tell Mu Guocheng that my sister let a dog bite me. But Mu Guocheng said that he didn’t even have a scar the size of a fingernail on his body, how could he be bitten by a dog?”
“I blamed myself very much at that time. I always thought, if I resisted not having the scar removal surgery and left the scar, and Dad saw it, would he be able to do justice for me?”
“But later, Mu Ruqing told me that when Mu Guocheng gave her the German Shepherd, he had said something to her.”
“He says…”
“‘Don’t, play, go out, people, life.'”
The smile on Mu Xueyi’s lips slowly disappeared.
“I understood from that time that it wasn’t that my father didn’t have the opportunity to uphold justice for me. But… in his heart, there was never the word justice.”
She slowly raised her eyes, looking at Zhou Zhenyue with a little moisture in her eyes.
“Look at how scary people are who are not bound by morality and laws. In their eyes, human life is more contemptible than dog’s life. They think they are superior, wandering outside all rules, harming people, doing You’re wrong, but you don’t even realize you’re wrong.”
“There’s only one thing that’s right in their eyes. And that’s—” “Fulfill your desires and make yourself happy.”
“Xueyi,” Zhou Zhenyue grabbed Mu Xueyi’s hand and held it tightly, “Don’t talk about it.”
Mu Xueyi laughed again, “It’s alright, Ayue. Do you think I’m still sad about these things?… In the early years, thinking about these things might have been really painful. Now I’ve seen them.”
“…causing myself to suffer because of other people’s faults,” she let out an angry laugh, “there’s no need for that.”
Zhou Zhenyue: “…”
Not knowing what to say, I could only hold the other’s hand tightly.
“I couldn’t control my emotions just now, not because I remembered those past events.”
Mu Xueyi nestled into Zhou Zhenyue’s arms, wrapped around her waist, and placed her pillow on her collarbone.
“Being startled by a dog, being implicated and causing some bad memories, it’s nothing. I’ve come a long way on my own, and I can face it all by myself.”
“But…” Mu Xueyi’s voice suddenly took on a cry, “I…”
Zhou Zhenyue hugged her shoulders, kept rubbing her shoulders, and asked softly, “Since it’s nothing, why are you crying?”
Mu Xueyi buried her face in Zhou Zhenyue’s neck and choked.
“Because… I’m ready to face it myself…”
“But I saw you… in front of me.”
The author has something to say: Xueyi is poor, she is really strong
