Falling tonight

Chapter 28
He touched Su Ran's smooth back and said comfortingly: "Good boy, you will always be my heart and soul. I will put you first, don't worry."

Where he couldn't see it, Su Ran's eyes were dark and unclear, and she asked softly: "But Sister Zhao Rou really loves you. She has forgiven you for treating her like you did yesterday and wants to get engaged to you. I'm so afraid that you won't want me." Zihao."

Su Ran seemed to have no bones and kept speaking softly to him, while Zhao Rou seemed to have a hard bone that she couldn't chew no matter how hard she tried.

Comparing the two, Han Zihao became very angry: "She is a shameless person. She is still angry with me and has not forgiven me."

Su Ran pretended to be surprised and asked: "Then why did Sister Zhao Rou sign the engagement?"

Han Zihao thought for a while and said uncertainly: "Maybe it's because of our family's status. I saw that she was reluctant and ignored me when I talked to her today."

After three years together, he understood Zhao Rou's temper to a certain extent.

Apart from the pressure brought by Han's father and mother to the Zhao family, Han Zihao could not think of any other reason for Zhao Rou to agree to the engagement when she was angry.

Su Ran buried herself on his shoulder, her eyes gloomy.

Yesterday's method did not alienate Zhao Rou and Han Zihao, but got them engaged. She really did not expect this result.

However, Han Zihao slept with her but refused to break up with Zhao Rou. There was no doubt that he was a scumbag. She had sacrificed her body and reputation in order to gain a fortune from the Han family, but now she had gained nothing.

She clenched her fists and secretly made plans for her future.

It was impossible to give up Han Zihao, or they would have to be prevented from getting engaged.

Su Ran was racking his brains, while Zhao Rou was frightened.

Zhao family.

Zhao Rou looked at the closed study door and took a deep breath.

Perhaps out of nervousness, she had been waiting for the answer for more than ten years to finally be revealed. Zhao Rou clasped her fingers on the handle and waited for half a minute before unscrewing the door and entering.

Zhao Shijin was sitting on a chair, with the dim lamp shining on his somewhat old face, his expression unclear.

Zhao Rou stepped forward and stood in front of the desk opposite Zhao Shijin, digging her fingers into the edge of the table to balance her body.

After a long time, he squeezed out a sentence from his throat.

"Dad, after I came out of that warehouse 15 years ago, what happened there? That boy...how did he become?"

Zhao Shijin's eyes flickered for a moment before he regained his composure.

He looked at Zhao Rou from bottom to top, his eyes fixed on the void behind her, as if reminiscing.

"Actually, Dad admires your courage. I remember you were only 10 years old at that time. You were really perseverant to be able to track down and find where the gangsters hid the boy."

Zhao Rou twitched her lips and smiled sadly: "Dad, I didn't rescue him in the end."

Zhao Shijin's eyes moved to her: "You have tried your best. At that time, you broke your leg, and you forced your broken foot to go home, which scared us so hard that we couldn't understand. At that time, your body was bloody and bloody, except for the last step. Fortunately, I have an acquaintance abroad who sent you abroad for treatment and helped you save your life."

Zhao Rou swallowed: "Then, after I go home that day, I will ask you to send someone to find rescue..."

When Zhao Rou said this, Zhao Shijin's eyes dimmed, and after a long while, he spoke with difficulty.

"Zhao Rou, do you know why dad never dared to tell you what happened next?"

Zhao Rou's eyes were bright and full of expectation.

Zhao Shijin looked at Zhao Rou with guilt and regret in his eyes, and sighed.

"Uncle Li led people to find the warehouse you mentioned. They only saw a big pool of blood on the third floor. The blood seeped into the stairs and dripped all over the floor. But he led people to search upstairs and downstairs. I've searched all over the place, but I still can't find the boy you mentioned."

Zhao Rou's throat was sore: "Then what?"

Zhao Shijin's voice was choked with sobs: "Uncle Li felt that something was wrong, so he rushed out with others. On the opposite street, he saw those masked men pushing a person into the car and driving away quickly. Waiting for Uncle Li and the others to get on. By the time the car was about to catch up to the mass grave, it was already dark, and the car was gone, and I could only hear..."

Zhao Roufei's heart tightened, and he seemed to be unable to feel the heartbeat.She raised her lips with difficulty: "What did you hear?"

Zhao Shijin stared at Zhao Rou, worried that she wouldn't be able to bear it, and said softly: "I heard the sound of wolves biting inside."

Zhao Rou's face suddenly turned pale, her feet softened, and she fell down on the chair.

Zhao Shijin reached out to help him, with a look of distress on his face: "Hey... I have been reluctant to tell you, just because I was worried that you wouldn't be able to bear it. Dad doesn't want to make you sad."

Zhao Rou Zhao Rou's nose felt sore and her eyes suddenly turned red.

My heart felt like it was being grabbed so tightly that it hurt.

There was water in front of her eyes, and her tongue was trembling: "Dad, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true. Uncle Li went with him personally."

"Li Shusheng waited near the mass grave for half an hour before he heard the wolf howling inside stopped. When he came back, they were so frightened that they couldn't sleep for several days."

The tears accumulated in Zhao Rou's eyes burst out and dripped down.

She felt a sharp pain in her chest, and there was a huge sadness there.

Zhao Shijin stepped forward to comfort her: "You are a kind child. You have tried your best to help him. It's just fate that makes people..."

Zhao Rou's ears were buzzing and she couldn't hear what Zhao Shijin said specifically.

She cried in the study for a long time, until she was awakened by a burst of coldness in the night. Zhao Rou opened her eyes suddenly, and her eyes fell into darkness.

Zhao Shijin had already left. She turned on her phone and saw a missed call from Mu Zhou, then remembered that he was waiting for her in the car.

When I looked at the time again, it was already 2 am.

Zhao Rou quickly tidied herself up, wiped the tears on her face, and walked out of Zhao's house.

In the silent night, the colors of the mountains, forests and trails merge into one, like a huge black hole swallowing up everything around it.

Zhao Rou was a little scared, so she bravely walked 100 meters forward, only to see the black Bentley shrouded in the night, and her heart gradually dropped.

She tapped on the car window and opened the door after hearing the sound of the door lock.

The dim yellow car lights illuminated the face of the man in the driver's seat. Perhaps he had just woken up. His usually calm face rarely showed a hint of mist, and he looked harmless.

Zhao Rou was a little embarrassed and made him wait for a long time. She said, "How about I drive and you can continue to sleep for a while."

Perhaps because she had been crying for a long time, her voice was hoarse and different from usual.

Muzhou noticed, became more conscious, turned to look at her, and noticed her swollen eyes.

His face darkened: "What, are you being bullied?"

Zhao Rou was stunned and denied: "No."

Mu Zhou stared at her, frowning and saying nothing, as if he was judging whether her words were true or false.

Zhao Rou was not used to being paid so much attention, so she looked away: "It's not because of them, it's because of myself."

It was the first time Mu Zhou saw her crying and he felt a little uncomfortable. But seeing that she didn't want to say anything, he stopped asking.

After driving back to the apartment where Zhao Rou lived, both of them were very sleepy and fell asleep directly on the bed.

Maybe it happened at night. That night, Zhao Rou had a dream, and in her dream, she went back to that day again.
