let me look at you

Chapter 98 Another Farewell
At this time, it was past eight o'clock in the morning, and it was a cloudy day. Although the sun was not bright, it could still be clearly discerned through the window of the Feiming small room. It was already dawn.And Han Shu was standing at the head of her bed, but he didn't speak.

The orange year is like falling into a cold cellar, she hugged Feiming without making a sound, but quietly clenched her trembling lips with her teeth.

During the time that was only one or two hours before dawn, Han Shu had topsy-turvy dreams. He even dreamed of a police car parked at the gate of the campus with its siren blaring. He was a bustling person, everyone pointed at him with contempt, and what they talked about was nothing more than his obscenity and shamelessness.Someone fainted on the spot, it was his mother, Sun Jinling, and Dean Han's eyes were bloodshot, if someone hadn't tried to stop him, he would have rushed up on the spot and personally tore up this rebellious son who had completely ruined the old Han's family.Han Shu turned his head frequently in the midst of countless people's pushing, but he couldn't see Ju Nian, he didn't even have a back. Being present, even if he gave a happy expression, he felt that he deserved it and felt at ease.

It wasn't until the early morning light disturbed his mental journey of being imprisoned that Han Shu opened his eyes. It took a tenth of a second to revive his memory, figure out the current situation, and immediately jumped up.It's a pity that it was still a step too late. His posture at this time was hanging on the edge of the bed. This jumping posture caused him to roll and crawl and fell to the ground. Fortunately, he was wrapped in the quilt and did not hurt much. .The old-fashioned wooden canopy bed that he didn't see too clearly last night was empty.

Although Han Shu has always advocated waking up naturally, his biological clock is very accurate and he is not a person who sleeps late.On the other hand, Xie Junian, although he has no experience living with her, but according to his follow-up observation for quite a long time before, as long as she doesn't go to the morning shift and has no special things, she usually sleeps until the sun is high before falling asleep. Go to Uncle Cai to get milk.This time he fell behind her again, and suddenly felt extremely passive.Thinking of last night, he was so flustered that his face burned, he hurriedly put on his clothes, tidied the sheets and quilts, and went out bravely.

Feiming hadn't gotten up yet, and the broken clock in the hall confirmed that it was indeed early.Han Shu poked his head towards the gate of the courtyard with ulterior motives, but there was no police car or law enforcement officers in his dream.Then there was a "squeak" of the door, and the victim, with wet hair, opened the door from the steaming bathroom and walked out, holding a basin of clothes in his hand.

Han Shu was a little embarrassed, so he coughed a few times, trying to get Ju Nian's attention.Ju Nian ignored it, put down the clothes in the basin, and found a dry towel to wipe the water from his hair. Han Shu coughed harder, but the result was the same.He was finally convinced that she was deliberately ignoring him, even if he coughed his throat, it would be in vain.He was at a loss in his mind, thinking of the embarrassing incident last night, needless to say, it was a serious crime, but death is life, killing or cutting, she at least give a word.

So Han Shu dawdled and walked behind Ju Nian, hesitating again and again, and said out of nowhere, "Look... this... what should I do?"

He saw Ju Nian stop wiping his hair and didn't look back at him.It was just a time to catch his breath, Han Shu felt that he was about to suffocate to death.

"Let's go, don't come here again." There was no obvious emotional ups and downs in Ju Nian's voice.

Oh...she was going to let this go, as if it didn't happen.It seemed that he escaped shamefully again, Han Shu couldn't tell whether he was relieved or a little disappointed.He thought a little cheaply, he was such an asshole, there was no reason to just let it go, how could she just finish it with one sentence.He also blamed himself, last night, before that incident, everything was so complete and perfect, he could even feel that he was getting close to her, who knew that something happened like an evil spirit possessed him later, it was so perfect Yes, everything is ruined.Her attitude was already benevolent, no matter how shameless he was, there was no reason for him not to leave.

"Can I wash my face before leaving?" Han Shu could only say so now.

Ju Nian didn't speak, so he dug out his toiletries, walked to the faucet in the patio dejectedly, and was just slowly squeezing out a piece of perfectly regular toothpaste on the toothbrush when he heard a door call from outside the yard. sound.

"Ju Nian, are you home?"

Who else could this voice be besides Tang Ye.

Of course, Ju Nian heard it too. She straightened up and subconsciously brushed her half-dry hair back, looking a little at a loss.

The knocking on the door continued, but Ju Nian didn't move.

Han Shu guessed that she must be pretending to be absent at this time, so he "kindly" said: "Can I open the door?"

This sentence really worked, Ju Nian immediately turned around and held him back, with a suspicious crimson color on his face.

"You don't move."

She put down the towel for wiping her hair and hurried out the door.

Sure enough, it was Tang Ye who came. He was still wearing the suit he wore when he picked up Ju Nian and Fei Ming yesterday, and there was a blue mustache on his chin. Haggard, only a pair of eyes are still very clear.

Ju Nian opened the door, but the man stood at the door, stretched out his hand to brush the hair beside his ear, and asked, "Morning, are you here?"

Tang Ye nodded and smiled, "Happy New Year."

Yes, this is the early morning of the first day of the new year.Ju Nian replied as if waking up from a dream: "Happy New Year."

She didn't move away from the door to invite Tang Ye in, and she didn't know why he left his stepmother who needed care so early in the morning to come to her, so she quietly waited for what he would say next.

But Tang Ye didn't directly state his reason for coming, he looked at Ju Nian thoughtfully, and suddenly asked: "Ju Nian, did something happen?"

Ju Nian hastily brushed his hair again, the half-dry ends were disturbing, she remembered, no wonder he also felt something was wrong, according to the local customs, there is absolutely no way to wash your hair on the first morning of the new year reasonable.

Just at this moment, she heard someone coming out of the house.

"Hey, that... I can't find a cup for brushing my teeth."

Ju Nian turned around almost immediately, not because she was so eager to see Han Shu, but because she didn't want to see Tang Ye's expression at the moment.

Han Shu stood under the eaves holding his toothbrush innocently, his hair was a little messy, and he almost had the words "I just woke up" written on his forehead.

As if in response to Ju Nian's unspoken accusation, he said helplessly: "I declare that I didn't interrupt you on purpose. You forgot my car and parked at the door. Can he not know?"

After he finished his reasoning, he said to Tang Ye, "Is my godmother better?"

Looking back at Ju Nian, Tang Ye's expression was far calmer than she imagined, even calm, and a little tired, maybe it was just the result of guarding the patient all night.He answered Han Shu's question very politely.

"It's still the same. It's not life-threatening, but it's impossible to return to normal in a while. Thank you for your concern."

"She is also my godmother, thank you. I will visit her later." After finishing speaking, Han Shu pointed to the room, and said naturally, "Why don't you come in and sit down and talk?"

He responded to Tang Ye with the same politeness, as if the conflicts at work and the embarrassment in front of him did not exist for the time being, but not only Tang Ye, but even Ju Nian suddenly felt that when he spoke like this, it seemed that he was the master of this house .

"No, I'll leave after a few words." Tang Ye said without hesitation for a moment.

But Ju Nian turned sideways and said, "Come in, it's cold outside."

This situation, this scene, this scene, I can't tell how weird it is, it seems that everything is out of place.

The sound of firecrackers at Uncle Cai’s house is a traditional custom. The first thing to do when you wake up in the New Year is to open the door and set off firecrackers, which means "a good start".Han Shu slapped his head as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked Ju Nian, "You didn't buy firecrackers, did you? It's an omen, let's set off firecrackers to get rid of the bad luck of the old year. Or, I'll go to Uncle Cai now home to buy."

As he said that, he turned back to put his toothbrush, and then walked to Uncle Cai's house in three steps at a time.No one objected to this, and perhaps everyone present was relieved for his temporary departure.

Han Shu walked away, only Tang Ye and Ju Nian were left at the door.

"I missed my appointment yesterday, I'm really sorry." Tang Ye said still standing in place.

Ju Nian wanted to explain. She wanted to tell Tang Ye that Han Shu was kicked out by his family, so they took him here overnight.This is the truth, but if it is said, it will be suspected of trying to cover it up.Since you can't tell, it's better not to say it.

"Don't say that, your business is more important." She lowered her head, her half-dry hair hanging down, making her face look pitifully small.

He didn't intend to come in, so the two people who didn't talk much were silent at the door.It was hard to speak, but they bumped into each other again.They spoke the following words almost at the same time.

"He's still good to you."

"How are you?"

Then they didn't seem to hear each other's words, they were all startled.

Tang Ye laughed first, and he made a relieved expression, "I just want to see how you are, so I'll go back to the hospital."

Ju Nian didn't force him to stay, and smiled back slightly, "Take care."

Han Shu soon bought firecrackers from Uncle Cai's store, and from where they were standing, they could watch him laughing and waving to Uncle Cai before turning back.

"Ju Nian, this time it seems that I can't escape. I'm sorry, the 'what if' I thought can only be an 'if', although I really want to, really, I have been doing it for half my life. Practical things." Tang Yeshang suddenly took a step forward, he spoke in such a hurry, as if before his eyes, there would be no more time, and he and she would no longer have time.

As he spoke, Ju Nian realized that Tang Ye had stuffed a book he had been holding into her hand.It was a paperback version of "Journey to the West", which was opened when Ju Nian first came to Tang Ye's house. They had a little rivalry over this book when they first met.

The book is very old, but it is Tang Ye's favorite and he often reads it.

"You keep this," he said.

The sensitivity in Ju Nian's bones made her instinctively flip through the book when she took it, and she easily opened a certain page, which contained a bank card.

"This……"

As Han Shu got closer and closer, Tang Ye pushed Ju Nian's hand back without a doubt, and also interrupted her rejection in the future. "It's not a lot of money, but every cent is clean. I saved it with a friend before, but fortunately, I kept it. With the crimes I have committed, I'm afraid it's not enough to pay it back. I don't know if I can pay it back in my lifetime." It works out, Auntie has no problem with her life, so I will divide the money into two parts, one for my aunt and one for you. If you keep it, it will always be useful."

He spoke sincerely, as if he had already planned to dispel all the reasons for her rejection.

"This is not charity, Ju Nian, if you treat me as a friend, don't say anything... I just feel worried about you."

When Tang Ye said this, he was still calm, neither sad nor troubled, as if he was just waiting for the already known ending to come.It's just that this hopeless entrustment makes Ju Nian feel sad.

She actually thought about entrusting him for the rest of her life, if she had to have an entrustment in this life.Maybe not deep love, but enough warmth, they understand and understand each other, which is enough to last forever.

Unexpectedly, even an "if" that may not come true can be broken so quickly.

Ju Nian knew all kinds of things in the prison too well, so he couldn't help worrying about Tang Ye even more.

As if to get rid of those invisible melancholy, Tang Ye laughed at himself, "When I saw Han Shu's car when I first came here, I was a little silly there, but I thought again, it's not a bad thing .”

"What's good or bad?" Han Shu's ears were sharp, and he heard some voices a few meters away.

Tang Ye smiled at him, "I'll go first."

"Would you like to chat for a while?" Han Shu continued to pretend to be confused, and saw an extra book in Ju Nian's hand, and asked, "Hey, what are you holding?"

Tang Ye explained: "A book I brought along by the way."

"Is this book a gift for the Chinese New Year? It must be a rare and rare copy." Han Shu said half-truthfully.

Why doesn't Tang Ye know that now he has no right to dispose of all his property.

At this time, Ju Nian passed the book to Han Shu expressionlessly, and teased, "Do you want to confiscate it?"

As expected, Han Shu didn't dare to pick her up in embarrassment, and replied, "I didn't see anything."

Tang Ye said to Han Shu: "I have an unfeeling request. If the books in my house are of no value, instead of becoming waste paper, I think it's better to give them all to Ju Nian. Please."

Han Shu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's too early to say anything before there is a judgment."

Tang Ye didn't bother with this issue, and said to Ju Nian: "I really have to go, send my greetings to Feiming." After saying that, he turned and left.

Holding the firecrackers, Han Shu looked at the silent Ju Nian holding an old book, and said, "I didn't drive him away." He seemed to have forgotten that he was actually the one who was about to be driven away.

"Do you want to ask Feiming to watch me set off firecrackers?" Han Shu was afraid that the fuse would be damp, so he searched all over the yard for a place to hang firecrackers.

Ju Nian also planned to go to see how Feiming was doing, but she went to her room once when she just woke up, and the child was sleeping soundly.

When she walked under the eaves, at the same time as Han Shu, she heard the crisp sound of something breaking on the floor.

The sound came from an unidentified room!
Han Shu threw the firecrackers almost immediately, and ran into Feiming's room with Ju Nian.

Feiming was lying on the bed in a strange posture, and what fell to the ground was the glass lamp on her bedside table.

Ju Nianliu hugged Feiming carelessly, she was so frightened, as if she was afraid that Feiming would be broken like glass if she didn't pay attention.

Feiming's face was very red, and he opened his eyes blankly, "Auntie, my head hurts a little."

"It's okay, it's okay, let's go to the hospital right away." Ju Nian looked at Han Shu with a pleading look, and she began to feel glad that Han Shu hadn't left yet.

Feiming shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt too much. Let's wait until dawn. Is Uncle Han Shu gone?"

She just said these words very normally, completely unaware of the pale faces of the two adults.

At this time, it was past eight o'clock in the morning, and it was cloudy. Although the sun was not bright, it could be clearly discerned through the window of Feiming's small room that it was already dawn.And Han Shu was standing at the head of her bed, but he didn't speak.

The orange year is like falling into a cold cellar, she hugged Feiming without making a sound, but quietly clenched her trembling lips with her teeth.

Han Shu stretched out his hand slowly, shaking it up and down in front of Feiming's out-of-focus eyes.

"Auntie, did Uncle Han Shu leave last night? He said he had nowhere to go." Feiming said with some difficulty.

Ju Nian closed his eyes sadly, and Han Shu's hands drooped down.
