let me look at you

Chapter 41 Remember to Say Goodbye (1)
If you really regard me as the most important friend, no matter where you are going, who you are with, how far you go, whether you will come back... Before you leave, remember to say "goodbye" to me, okay?

Han Shu's extremely impatient urging made Lin Henggui put out the cigarette butt in his hand.

After briefly looking around at the pair of boys and girls, the owner of the small shop hummed an unknown tune and returned to his small shop.

He is a very cunning person, of course he is not willing to let the orange year alone, but it is another matter if there is another strange boy.Seventeen or eighteen years old, full of vigor and vigor, is like a lion that has just grown up, while Lin Henggui has been eating, drinking, whoring and gambling for the past few years, and his health has been declining. He is just an aging jackal, and he has to give up even delicious food.Judging from this point, he still has it.Besides, Han Shu is different from Wu Yu in his eyes. Wu Yu is a pale young man who was born and raised here, but Han Shu looks proud and sharp. No matter his clothes or demeanor, he is from another class. After tasting the sweetness, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future.

The more charming Ju Nian when he grew up made him want to move, but the situation was still not worth it.

Seeing Ju Nian following her, Han Shu never spoke to her again."Whoever gets close to me dies" was written on his cold face, how could Ju Nian dare to stroke his beard.

The last bus had already left, and Ju Nian only had five yuan with her. Fortunately, Han Shu hailed a taxi, which didn't stop her from going up to grab a seat.

The taxi stopped at the alley of Ju Nian's house, Ju Nian struggled ten thousand times, but decided to say thank you to him.When he said those two words timidly, his disdain filled the entire carriage.

"If Dean Han didn't know that if I threw a woman in the wild, I'd be skinned, do you think I'd take care of you?"

"How did Dean Han know?"

"Nonsense, are you still not getting out of the car?"

Ju Nian took a step too late, and Han Shu pushed her out from the open car door before she could recover. Can't help but look back.

Han Shu closed the car door, and politely said to the driver: "Please take me to the family area of ​​the Municipal Procuratorate." When the car started, he still nodded to Ju Nian, "Goodbye." .

From that day on, Han Shu never talked to Ju Nian again, and when he saw her in school, no matter how Zhou Liang, Fang Zhi and them made eye contact, he would turn a blind eye.

Ju Nian actually enjoyed this kind of tranquility quite a bit. What really made her feel lonely was that she found that she didn't know how to face the "little monk".Every second before she fell into a dream, the tightly cuddling body in the martyr's cemetery under the night would make her unable to breathe.However, in the dream, behind the black hair is sometimes Chen Jiejie's face, and sometimes it is her own.After waking up, I felt that a piece of oil paper mixed with lard and honey was stuck in my heart. It felt cloudy, sweet, ambiguous, and airtight.

Ju Nian wanted to tear off this layer of oil paper, and take another look at the quiet and clear sky when she and the "little monk" lay side by side under the pomegranate tree.She tore, the oily paper was attached to the flesh, and it hurt her heart.

She thought, maybe she shouldn't look for Wu Yu anymore.But at this time, a major event that shocked the whole school happened—after Chen Jiejie disappeared on her balcony on the night of her birthday, she never returned home.In other words, this beautiful little princess disappeared in front of many people celebrating her birthday, and after a week, there was still no news.

It is said that Chen Jiejie's parents have already called the police. They are worried that their baby daughter will be taken away by bad guys. However, after investigation by the police, there is no trace of violence at the scene. There is no fight. , Chen Jiejie herself was clearly prepared for this disappearance.Several of her favorite clothes and a bag disappeared from the closet, and at the same time, she took away all her savings for 18 years, which is definitely a figure that makes ordinary people stagger.

Others said that a neighbor of the Chen family drove home late that night and seemed to see Chen Jiejie running downhill with a boy on the Panshan Road. The boy was wearing a baseball cap and could not see his facial features clearly.Her parents have tried everything but have no clue, and they have almost fallen into despair and madness.

In this way, Chen Jiejie ran away from home because of an unknown boy, which became the most shocking and deviant news in recent years in No. [-] Middle School. Whispering with those behind the scenes?An exodus that was originally shrouded in disgrace, coupled with the popularity of the parties involved, led to the evolution of many absurd and convincing versions of this headless case in the whispers of the No. [-] Middle School students after dinner.

Some people said that Chen Jiejie was discovered a long time ago hanging out with a certain member of the underworld. The man was over 30 years old and had a hideous scar on his face, which was very scary. Chen Jiejie eloped with him.

Some people say that Chen Jiejie has never been a self-respecting and law-abiding person. Looking at her usual nail polish, you can tell how much she loves vanity. Maybe as long as boys tickle their fingers downstairs, she will run away.

Some people say that there is no guarantee that the Chen family did not have an economic crisis, sold their daughter and pretended to be missing.

There are also people who patted their heads and assured that one day they found a girl who looked very much like Chen Jiejie in a certain corner of the city. Just as they wanted to call her, she disappeared like a puff of smoke...

The peachy rumors make people excited, their adrenaline soars, people forget the boring life, and also let the students of No. [-] Middle School and Senior Three find a little freshness and excitement under the pressure of entering a higher school.Only Ju Nian, looking at the vacant seat beside her, remembered those two faces that were overwhelmed by passion, and she couldn't restrain her anxiety.

She was afraid that her worries would come true, and it was Wu Yu who took her away.

How could he be so stupid, even if he went the same way, Chen Jiejie could have a chance to turn around, but he didn't.With the power of the Chen family, it's fine if they don't find out. Once they are known, any kind of tragedy will not be too much.

Ju Nian waited for a week in crushing worry, she longed for Wu Yu to give her a message.Although she has made up her mind not to intervene in his affairs, but this is the last time, as long as she knows that he is safe, she will never care about the relationship between the two of them from now on.

But Wu Yu didn't.The Internet cafe where he worked said that he had asked for leave for something. As for the vocational high school, absenteeism has become commonplace.Ju Nian tried to convince himself that Chen Jiejie was prepared, she was rich, and the two of them took care of each other, at least life would not be too hard for the time being.However, Wu Yu, as the culprit who "abducted" the daughter of the Chen family who has always been good-natured, after being discovered, all kinds of terrible consequences played out in Ju Nian's mind every day.

Leave them alone, leave them alone.

You can't control them!

When he left, he didn't even remember to leave you a few words, so why bother to worry about them.

Ju Nian muttered to himself in a place where no one was around, but when he combed his hair every day, there were a lot of hair falling out of the comb teeth.

A week later, she couldn't bear the suffering any longer, so she found an excuse and went to Wu Yu's house on Sunday afternoon.In the absence of others, maybe there will always be a sentence or two left for grandma, Ju Nian is a little lucky.

Outside the courtyard wall of Wu Yu's house, loquat trees could be seen sticking out their heads.Ju Nian remembered that he once told him that the trees in the yard should be planted a few more, otherwise it would become a word "sleepy". Wu Yu sprinkled many seeds according to his words, but only this single seedling survived.

If he never comes back, will the only loquat tree die of loneliness?
At this moment, the courtyard door opened with a creak, and the person who walked out was not Wu Yu, who else could it be?
Ju Nian was stunned, she pinched herself, she was not daydreaming.Did he bring Chen Jiejie to his home?

Wu Yu looked preoccupied, closed the door and walked a few steps before thinking of turning around.

"Orange Year?" He looked pleasantly surprised, "Why are you here?"

But Ju Nian couldn't be innocent.

"I'm going to see my aunt, and I'll pass by here." The leaves of the bristletail grass were torn apart by her and thrown on the ground.

Wu Yu could sense her strangeness, walked over, and smiled: "Didn't you come to see your aunt? Ju Nian, what happened? Go inside and tell."

"No need." Ju Nian was not yet mentally prepared to see Chen Jiejie at Wu Yu's house.

"come in."

"Is she in there too?"

Wu Yu looked at Ju Nian silently.Knowing each other for so many years, Ju Nian discovered for the first time that the pupils of the "little monk" are very light brown. At first glance, one would feel that there is an indescribable emptiness inside. A feeling of loneliness and nothingness.

He dragged Ju Nian into the house.The house is clear at a glance, except for the bedridden grandma, there is no one else.

Ju Nian couldn't figure it out: "Where is Chen Jiejie? Do you know that Chen Jiejie ran away from home? Everyone is rumoring that she eloped with a man, Wu Yu, are you going to pretend to be confused with me?"

Wu Yu sat on the edge of grandma's bed, the old man looked a little unwell, and the old house smelled like herbs.

"I know she's gone, but I don't know where."

Even though Ju Nian couldn't help resenting Wu Yu, she still had no doubts about what he said.
