Chapter 81
I heard him gasping, "Jia Xiaoru, you're trying to burn me on purpose."

I paused for a moment, I just shook his head and accidentally burned his scalp, so I simply turned off the hair dryer, "Okay."

He didn't take it to the bathroom, he just put it on the bedside table and hugged me, frowned and reprimanded me: "Let go, it's not convenient today."

"What do you think of me? How could I be rude to you tonight?"

With a stab in the heart, he didn't think deeply about the meaning of the words.

There was a variety show on TV, full of laughter, but it was hard to convey through the screen.

"Jia Xiaoru, stop showing such a look in your eyes."

Turning his eyes, he met Zhou Yu's gaze, "What kind of eyes do I have?"

"Empty, without any warmth." He commented in a low voice, then tightly wrapped his arms around my waist, and said softly: "You know? You have armed yourself to the point of leaking, like a female warrior, against me I'm not afraid. But today you are not angry at all, I have followed you for a long time, and seeing your numb and helpless expression really hurts my heart."

I was silent and leaned my head lightly on his shoulder.

It took a long time before he vaguely said, "It's not like this every year."

During the years when he was absent, I would deliberately keep myself busy on Christmas Eve, so that I would fall asleep when I got home exhausted.

But this year is different, mom probably did it on purpose.

Sure enough, I heard Zhou Yu say aside: "Actually, Mom came to me a few days ago and talked with me a lot. We all thought it was time to pull you out of Dad's shadow. Jia Xiaoru, it's not your fault, it's an accident. Unexpectedly, you have been carrying the responsibility on yourself for so many years, it will be too heavy, let me help you share a little bit?"

Twitching the corners of his mouth, he closed his eyes.

My mother thought that I had the courage to uncover the scar after I found Zhou Yu. How can I heal if I don't let it dry completely?
Perhaps, it's time to fulfill my mother's freedom.

"Are you asleep?" Hearing Zhou Yu ask in a low voice, I didn't respond, trying to breathe as evenly as possible.

After a moment of silence, I felt warmth coming from my forehead, and after thinking about it for a while, I realized that it was his lips that were printed on it.Originally, this room was very cold, but his embrace was very warm, full of familiar breath invaded every inch of my skin, as if he had never left me.

Zhou Gongjin, a man, can be rascal, irritable, or gentle.

This sad and painful night, because of his presence, I finally fell asleep peacefully.

But the nightmare didn't let me go.

The desolate road, originally silent, suddenly heard the sharp creaking sound of the wheels of the car grinding against the ground, and then something flew high into the sky and smashed down again.The thumping sound was like a heavy hammer, hitting the heart hard, and the whole nerve was numb and unconscious.

I saw the bright red blood slowly flowing under the street lamp, and a peace fruit rolled into my sight.

My breathing stopped, and I felt an invisible hand pinching my neck, my eyes were red, red blood, red apples.

"Jia Xiaoru..." The distant voice came from nowhere, and I seemed to be standing at the bottom of the well, no matter how hard I climbed, I couldn't get to the mouth of the well.The feeling of suffocation became more and more intense, and my body began to twitch. At this moment, there was a slight pain in my cheek, and the voice came into my eardrum again: "Jia Xiaoru, I am Zhou Gongjin, wake up."

The restraining power disappeared suddenly, and fresh air came in. I took a big mouthful of breath, and slowly opened my eyes.

Zhou Yu's anxious face was nearby, and the glint in his eyes seemed to be distressed: "You are having a nightmare."

Yeah, I'm having another nightmare.Since my father left, I have nightmares every few days, and the blood apple is the most frequent dream. It is already a nightmare that I can't get rid of.

He brought a towel to wipe my sweat, my back and forehead were covered with cold sweat, but after wiping it, I felt sticky and uncomfortable.

He suggested: "Why don't you take a hot shower again."

"No clothes to change."

He tucked his shirt over to me, "Put it on first."

I glance at his gray shirt and, without coyness, slip into the bathroom again.I felt much better after washing. His shirt just covered my legs. I opened the bathroom door and saw him leaning against the wall by the door and waiting.

I don't know if it was my illusion, but there was a flash of tension on his face.

She walked past him silently, waited for a while and found that he hadn't followed, turned around and saw a slight movement in the bathroom, did you go to the toilet?After a while, I got up and walked outside the bathroom door, only to see Zhou Yu scrubbing my clothes in the sink.

On weekdays, he is a standard uncle at home. He throws away the changed clothes. Even if I wash them in the washing machine, he won't hang them to dry.It's rare to see him have such a "virtuous" side.

"Put it out of the window to blow, and you can wear it in the morning."

This is the rare time I saw Zhou Yu showing a slight embarrassment and blushing.And this moment of time is quiet and gentle.

Lying back under the quilt again, I got into his arms directly, quickly found a comfortable position, and closed my eyes again listening to the powerful heartbeat.This time I woke up until dawn, and there were no more nightmares.

When he woke up, the person beside him was still soundly asleep, breathing long and evenly, his black eyes were covered by long eyelash feathers, and the slightly stubble protruding from his chin seemed to add the breath of a mature man.

He lightly landed on the ground, and went to collect the clothes after rinsing, feeling a little damp, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

It's not so easy to dry it in the winter night. I took the clothes back and put them under the air conditioner, and the warm air dried them in a short time.As soon as she changed her clothes, she heard movement behind her, and turned her head to meet her dark eyes.

After Zhou Yu finished sorting things out, the two of them went downstairs and checked out. After eating something in the town, Zhou Yu went to find a car. If we couldn't find it, we had to walk back to the bus station.After waiting for a while, Zhou Yu came back and said that there was a van willing to take us.

I didn't think much about it at the time, and followed him into the white van. The driver was a middle-aged man, and he said he was going to bring goods to the city.

Along the way, I heard Zhou Yu chatting with the driver there, and it was not awkward in the carriage.After driving for a long time, I saw that I hadn't reached the city yet, so I couldn't help but mutter to myself, Luoyang Town is far enough away from the city.

After a few minutes, however, the car stopped.

I looked out the car window, a little inexplicable, why did I stop here?
Zhou Yu opened the door and got out of the car first. After I got out of the car, he greeted the driver, and the driver drove away by himself.

"What are you doing here? You have business to do?"

It is currently a detention center, and my first instinct is to wonder if there is any case that requires him to come here to handle it.But seeing him holding my hand, his eyes fixed on me deeply, "Jia Xiaoru, there are some things we have to face."

At first I was at a loss, but when a cluster of sparks burst out in my heart, I suddenly changed my face.

I turned around and was about to leave, but Zhou Yu grabbed me tightly, and I didn’t turn my head back: “Zhou Gongjin, let me go.” He didn’t let go, and his fingers entwined even tighter, “I couldn’t see it before, but when I saw it last night I can't bear it. I can't bear that you forced yourself to be like this. If you don't hurt once, the wound in your heart will never heal. "

"Even my mother doesn't care about me, why do you decide my life?" At this time, I was like a hedgehog who had foreseen the danger, and erected the thorns all over my body, no matter who it was, I would stab it without hesitation.

But Zhou Yu was tougher than me: "Because I am your husband in the legal sense!"

"Huh? Husband? Zhou Gongjin, where were you when I was most desperate? You were the one who abandoned me first. The past four years can't be smoothed out by you. You have no right to control me." .”

"I hate myself too! If I hadn't thought too simple and acted impulsively at the beginning, how could I have lost you later. I don't want to say how regretful I am in the past four years, and I don't want to smooth it out. I just want to watch you take care of yourself , don't make people feel so distressed."

When I saw tears flashing in his black eyes, I immediately lowered my head, sniffed, and there were tears in my eyes.

After that, he walked into the detention center by his hand, and he negotiated, and then went all the way in, to a room where two prison guards were on duty.One of them asked us to wait for a while and went in, and it took a while to hear the movement inside.

I raised my eyes and watched the prison guard escorting a prisoner into sight.

The man saw us carefully identify, but still looked blank, he didn't know us.

As for me, the moment this person came into sight, my thinking stopped.

The nightmare was like a nightmare, pouring out of the nest, making me unable to breathe.

This person was the hit-and-run driver back then!He was arrested not long after, and his family even went to my house to ask for privacy. A life, a broken family, how could it be private?

I sat in the back row when the court opened and watched the desperation of this man as he was sentenced.The thought in my heart is--not enough, you just sit in prison for a few years and you can get out, but I am in hell.

"Are you..." the man questioned.

Zhou Yu glanced at me, seeing that I had no intention of answering, she spoke for me, but said in a cold tone, "We are the family members of the deceased who were involved in your car accident back then."

The man's face changed, and his eyes flickered in surprise.

I twitched the corners of my mouth and showed a sarcastic smile, "Xu Fei, don't come here without any problems."

He looked at me blankly, "Are you ... the daughter of that person? Why did you come to visit me?"

Withdrawing the cold hand held by Zhou Yu, I walked slowly to the iron fence, staring into his eyes, "The man you mentioned is a great magician, he has a name and surname. Why did you come to visit you?" , of course." After a pause, the cold light gathered in his eyes, "See if you look like a human being."

The man was shocked, and his eyes began to avoid, "You go, I don't want you to visit."

I suddenly clapped my hands on the table, looked at him in shock, and said every word in a volume that only the two of us could hear: "You social scum, why didn't you die?"

Seeing the face twitching and body trembling of the person in sight, he thought it would erupt in the next moment, but unexpectedly, he slammed his head heavily on the table, each time getting heavier.

He heard sobs overflowing from his mouth: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

I narrowed my eyes and watched coldly.
