summer sinking

The girl's sobs were muffled.

The range hood buzzed, and the water in the pot reached the boiling point. Fine bubbles gradually rolled and fluttered out of the pot.

Xu Sui choked up, covering his hand caressing her cheek with her hand, and called him, "Wu...Jiang Ye..."

When she called out his name, her shoulders trembled and she cried sadly.

Jiang Ye's throat tightened and he responded to her, "I'm here."

Xu Sui was still crying.

"If crying makes you feel better, it's okay to cry loudly." He sat next to her, patted her back gently, frowned, and spoke slowly and gently.

She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears, her tears wetting the front of his chest.

Jiang Ye picked her up like a child and walked to the kitchen to turn off the fire.

His body suddenly became airborne, Xu Sui stopped crying, and his tears fell silently.

After turning off the fire, she was carried back to the living room and sat down.

He was in front of her and she sat on his lap, face to face with him.

Xu Sui sniffed, and Jiang Ye took out a tissue and asked her to blow her nose.

She slowly returned to calm.

The troubles changed from the sky falling to thundering and raining heavily.

Jiang Ye wiped her tears with a tissue, raised his lips slightly, and pointed to the bathroom, "Go and wash your face? There are new towels and disposable face towels in the cabinet under the sink."

"Yeah." Xu Sui nodded slightly and got off his knees.

His face was wet, and the half-dried tears were a little sticky.

She will feel better if she washes her face.

Opening the cabinet under the sink, there are brand new and spare toiletries inside.

Xu Sui took a disposable towel.

The water rushed down and was adjusted to the right temperature.

She held warm water in both hands and washed her face repeatedly until the tears and uncontrollable snot flowing out of her face were completely washed away.

Xu Sui wiped his face in front of the large mirror, which reflected his red and swollen eyes and red nose.

She cried in front of him again.

How many times?

Can't remember.

Here in Jiang Ye, her desire to talk is as strong as the wind-swept weeds.

Calm down a little.

When Xu Sui returned to the living room, two bowls of thin noodles were placed on the coffee table.

Eggs lie on the noodles, garnished with green onions, and the soup base is thick and white.

Her nose was blocked from crying and she couldn't smell.

Xu Sui took a few bites, tears filled her eyes, and she felt like crying again.

Jiang Ye asked her, "Is it delicious?"

She picked up the poached eggs and suppressed the tremor in her voice, "It's delicious, just like what my mother cooked."

When she was wronged as a child, Xu Manyue would cook a bowl of noodles like this, patiently listen to her talk while eating, and comfort her. Once the noodles were finished, she would feel better.

"I met Li Zhiwen when we were in primary school." Xu Sui suddenly said.

There was a few seconds of silence.

Jiang Ye put down his chopsticks and didn't do anything. He just looked at her, "What then?"

"He always bullied me at that time." She sniffed, took a sip of the water he poured her before, and continued, "It was before my parents got divorced."

He was stunned.

Xu Sui talked about the past intermittently.

She studied in Xu Chengyu's hometown in the first grade of elementary school. At that time, her surname was not Xu, so she took her father's surname and took it as Xu.

Li Zhiwen is the little bully in the class.

The only son in his family, he was doted on and spoiled by the adults in the family, and he was overbearing and unreasonable.

Xu Sui, who is still young, is cute and well-behaved, and is popular in the class.

Li Zhiwen was jealous of her and hated that she had taken away the attention that had been paying attention to him.He didn't let the children in the class play with her. Anyone who played with her was his enemy.

The little bastard had so many pranks to tease people that he couldn't use them all up. The children who played with Xu Sui had suffered a lot and had a long memory, and they didn't care whether Xu Sui was good or not.

No one wants to play with Xu Sui.

Six-year-old Xu Sui couldn't fit in with the group. She was a loner in school and became an outlier.

Li Zhiwen showed off his power with his little followers, teasing her from time to time.

He snatched the beautiful little clip from her hair and threw it around, making her anxious and unable to get it back.Put small bugs caught in the field in her desk, and no one was allowed to tell her. It scared her and screamed, and they burst into laughter...

Xu Chengyu, who was extremely emotional when she returned home, was a little dissatisfied, and his temper would occasionally be vented on her.

At a young age, she learned to read people's faces in such an environment.

Xu Sui went to school awkwardly to please Li Zhiwen at school, and went home to please Xu Chengyu at home.

Wanting them to be nice to her.

However, things did not develop as she imagined.

They all got worse.

She began to resist Li Zhiwen's pranks and treated him coldly.

To avoid Xu Chengyu, she would hide whenever he got angry.

The conflict with Li Zhiwen intensified during an exam.

Xu Sui studied hard. The first-grade questions were simple and she got good grades.

Li Zhiwen asked her for answers and wanted to cheat, so she stood up and reported it.

The teacher severely criticized Li Zhiwen's behavior in front of the whole class and took him to the office for ideological education.

The lawless little bully is not afraid of anything. He wants to save face, is afraid of making a fool of himself, and is afraid of being laughed at.

Xu Sui's behavior made him embarrassed in public.

After school that day, Li Zhiwen pushed her and saw her fall to the ground. He said harshly, "Xu Sui, just wait."

"Just wait! I'm not afraid of you!" Xu Sui got up, treated the other person with his own medicine, and then ran away quickly.

Li Zhiwen couldn't catch up and his teeth itched with hatred.

Xu Sui's first grade life was peaceful for a long time.

Like the calm before the storm.

Later, when her daughter didn't come home, worried and anxious Xu Manyue called teachers and parents and searched the entire school.

At 10:30 in the evening, Xu Sui was finally found in the toilet cubicle blocked by a mop, soaked and suffering from a high fever.

At that time, eight hours had passed since the end of primary school.

After learning about this, Xu Chengyu was cold-blooded and ruthless. Looking at his sickly and pale biological daughter, he only said: "She is not close to me on weekdays, so she expects me when something goes wrong?"

Without the support of the Xu family, Xu Manyue, who is weak and weak, cannot seek justice.

Li Zhiwen's matter finally came to nothing.

It wasn't until Zheng Jingyan appeared that Xu Sui's life gradually became easier.

There were a few broken noodles left in the noodle soup.

Karma retribution, what happened to Li Zhiwen later made her feel the same and realized the mistake she had made, so he apologized to her.

Xu Sui didn't forgive and let time dilute it.

Now, Li Zhiwen indirectly hurt her again, and the dusty memories of being embarrassed were awakened, and his mother told Xu Chengyu the news about her.

Xu Chengyu will come to find her.

Children may be born with a love for their parents. When Xu Sui was young, he longed for his father's love.

When she met Li Zhiwen, she was hurt and had no support from her father.At an age when she was not yet completely sensible, she understood clearly what Xu Chengyu said back then.

His cold words penetrated into the flesh and blood he gave her, forming a festering wound that could not be healed. It could not be cut or healed.

When touched, the pain is unbearable.

tick.

Salty and bitter tears dripped into the soup.

"I thought I would never see him again in my life."
