Outside the dark alley at night, Yun Qing’s icy hands hurt from being held. After being treated coldly by Huo Yunshen repeatedly, she finally understood that he didn’t remember her at all.
His dark eyes were full of strangeness.
It was not just to reject her, but in his memory, she didn’t exist at all.
He led her along so many roads, called her cotton candy with a smile, promised to marry her when he grew up…he forgot all about it.
Yun Qing stood where she was, tears blurring her vision.
Huo Yunshen’s leg was injured, and the pain was unbearable every time he took a step, but he still gritted his teeth and walked forward without saying a word, his thin body melting into the night.
Hearing that there was no movement behind him, he accidentally turned his head to the side, and glanced at the little trouble that he saved casually.
Little Trouble stayed alone in the drizzle, with a lot of mud on the corners of her skirt, wet hair sticking to her cheeks, looking pretty and pitiful.
His silent and hard heart had already been frozen into a block of ice, sinking into a bottomless void that his body couldn’t touch.
He didn’t feel it, he didn’t know the temperature.
But at a certain moment when his eyes touched her tears, an inexplicable bitterness suddenly spread.
Huo Yunshen made a self-deprecating “heh”, and pressed his bloody wound forcefully, using pain to suppress his ridiculous emotions.
He didn’t know her, so where was the fluctuation?
What’s more, looking at her stupid look, she must have been scared to death by him, it’s best to stay away as soon as possible, don’t talk to him, don’t provoke him.
Huo Yunshen thought hard, but his pace was involuntarily slowing down.
He thought bitterly, this alley was too dark, she was a weak chick, so he was afraid that she would have no courage to go out alone.
Surprisingly, as soon as he showed signs of waiting for her, Little Trouble ran towards him, found a neatly folded handkerchief and a thermos cup from her school bag, moistened it with clean warm water, and stood on tiptoe, and wiped the blood on his face.
Gradually the rain stopped and the crescent moon glowed.
The girl raised her head, her slender eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her thin white hands seemed to be treating some fragile objects, wiping his wound bit by bit for him without getting too dirty.
Huo Yunshen’s whole body was stiff, staring at the small cheek that was close at hand.
Yun Qing held back her tears, smiled and said to him: “Don’t be afraid, it won’t hurt so much after wiping it clean.”
Huo Yunshen’s deep breathing quickly increased, and fierce resistance overflowed from the bottom of his eyes, and he raised his arm suddenly to block her.
The place where it was wiped felt hot and cool, with a girly aroma.
And that handkerchief was already covered with his stains, it was so disgusting that it was unsightly.
Huo Yunshen’s eyes were burning with fire. He looked at the petite figure in front of him who was by no means from the same world as him. She was clean and beautiful, with the key middle school badge pinned to her chest. She was pampered at first glance, and she should have never seen the dark side.
What the hell was she going to do.
Did she intentionally contaminate someone like him, waiting for him to show his weakness, and then watch a joke from above and play him!
“You don’t understand me?” Huo Yunshen said in a dark tone, “Don’t make me speak worse!”
Yun Qing retorted softly, “You saved me, so I should treat you well.”
Before Huo Yunshen looked back at her, at that moment, she made up her mind.
Her elder brother Yunshen hadn’t changed, but he had suffered too much.
It was okay to forget.
She would never mention the past again, not to mention the childhood and the past that cast a shadow on him.
In the future, he would be her saviour, and she would repay him and stay by his side, so that she could not let him continue to spoil himself like this and live alone.
Huo Yunshen raised his hand to pinch her face, and squeezed it fiercely: “I’ll say it one last time, stay away, and don’t mess with me.”
He was full of viciousness, threatening her with the most embarrassing face, and then pulled her to the bright and safe main street, turned around coldly, and returned to his solitary hut with injuries all over his body, unable to sleep all night.
In the middle of the night, enduring the pain, he curled up on the bed, stared straight at the night sky outside the narrow window, and silently clenched his fingers.
The few pieces of skin that had been touched by her were scorching hot and painful in the dark night that no one knew about.
It was like being poisoned by some kind of poison that penetrated to the bone and killed the life.
Early the next morning, Huo Yunshen went to No. 4 Middle School with a low fever, and the students and teachers along the way avoided him.
As the class time approached, the entrance of the teaching building was still flying like cats and dogs, so Min Jing mingled inside, and when he saw Huo Yunshen, he ran over quickly.
“Brother Shen,” Min Jing’s eyes lit up with excitement, “there is a girl from Ninghua – super beautiful! Waiting for you at the door of the class! Those guys are dumbfounded! She is so beautiful. She is simply incomparable to anyone in No. 4 Middle School!”
Huo Yunshen’s eyes sharpened, and he strode upstairs.
In the messy corridor on the third floor, outside the classroom door, Yun Qing was holding a delicate paper bag, lowering her head and waiting quietly.
Countless people around looked at her, and some even whistled.
But the moment Huo Yunshen appeared, all voices disappeared, and everyone dodged in fear.
Yun Qing raised her head to see him, her almond eyes rolled, and she walked over briskly, her eyes were so clear that she only seemed to be pretending to be waiting for him.
Min Jing followed Huo Yunshen, and just said: “Beautiful, I’ve inquired about it, she is Ninghua’s top student, Miss Flower, her name is Yun Qing—”
Huo Yunshen clenched his hands suddenly, his joints were dead white.
Yun Qing.
That Yun Qing who was betrothed to him before and then promised to Huo Linchuan.
Huo Linchuan arranged group after group of people to trouble him in No. 4 Middle School. When he was injured and bleeding, he satirized triumphantly again and again: “You have no chance to know how cute your original fiancée is.”
Sure enough, she knew who he was and came here to play tricks on him.
Huo Yunshen’s wrist trembled slightly, when Yun Qing held the paper bag to him, he blocked it viciously, the bag fell to the ground, and the things inside fell out with a clatter.
Bandages, wound medicine, cold medicine, and a steaming breakfast.
Huo Yunshen’s temples were in severe pain, and his vision was a little blurred. He passed by her without squinting, and threatened viciously: “If you dare to come again, I won’t be polite.”
He lay in the last row of the classroom all morning, feeling hot and cold all morning.
Min Jing said a lot of nonsense, he couldn’t hear clearly, and he didn’t want to hear it, Yun Qing’s shadow occasionally flashed before his eyes.
They all came to lie to him.
When school got over at noon, there was finally no one around, and his back was drenched in cold sweat.
When his teeth were chattering, a faint warm fragrance approached him in a trance, a soft hand touched his forehead, then put the anti-fever patch on, dissolved the granule with a small spoon, and boldly fed it into his mouth.
Huo Yunshen tried his best to look away.
Fake…
No one would do this for him.
His heart was trembling quietly with the hands.
The girl’s sweet voice rang in my ears: “I won’t disturb you. You take the medicine and sleep well, and you’ll be fine when you wake up.”
It was not until class in the afternoon that Huo Yunshen woke up with a start. His headache improved a lot. The wounds had also been treated, and there were still milk cakes on the table, as well as a note with delicate words: “Brother Yunshen, don’t forget to eat.”
Throwing everything she left out of the window together.
In the self-study class, the whole class was in chaos, shocked by the action of the big devil.
“Hey, Yun Qing sent it…”
“Is Yun Qing crazy? Why did she come to look for him?”
Hearing the whispers, Huo Yunshen got up suddenly, knocked the table, quickly rushed out of the classroom, ran to the flower bed under the window, picked up all the lost things, and hugged them in his arms.
He stood in the shadows, his eyes faintly scarlet.
Why…why did she come to tease him.
From this day on, every day before and after school, Yun Qing would come to No. 4 Middle School to find him, bringing snacks made by herself, meals packed in insulated boxes, wound medicine, daily necessities, and a small keychain she wove by herself, all for him.
She also said sweetly: “Brother Yunshen, you can call me Qingqing.”
Huo Yunshen’s muscles were so tense that they were about to burst, and without exception, he threw away his things, and said in a vicious voice: “Don’t bother me!”
There would be pain and sadness, and sometimes he would be so fierce that she would choke her lips a few times, but the next time, she would show up obediently and give him everything she could give him again.
Warm, soft, caring, pure and hot emotion of a girl.
Everything was a scourge.
Huo Yunshen never showed a good face in front of her, and he only said words that hurt people decisively, and watched the girl get hit.
But he finished throwing her things in front of her, and when she turned to leave, he immediately went to pick them up, picked them up and held them tightly.
Once someone took it away, he grabbed him by the collar and went crazy, then he grabbed the things and hugged it tightly in his arms.
There was another time when the garbage collector swept it away. He did not hesitate to dig through the garbage bags, picked them out one by one, and ran to the water room to rinse. A piece of cake was soaked in water and melted away. It could not return to its original state. He was in a daze and his eyes were red in a corner that no one knew about.
He knew it was fake…
This kind of brilliance couldn’t be related to him for a lifetime.
He couldn’t bear it.
Unrealistically imagining from the bottom of his heart, if there was even a trace…even if it was true, did it mean that he had lived in this world and gained tenderness.
Huo Yunshen ate all the perishable things in one bite, and put them in the cleanest and most precious box, put them on the bedside, and took them out to look at them every day when he fell asleep.
But he still wouldn’t give Yun Qing any smiles, said hurtful things to her, and drove her away with cold words.
Everyone in Ninghua and No. 4 Middle School knew that Yun Qing was chasing after that terrifying lunatic, treating her as a different kind.
Min Jing worriedly said to Huo Yunshen: “Brother Shen, please treat Yun Qing better. Will she be so talked about that she doesn’t want to come? I heard that many people in Ninghua like her.”
“It’s better not to come.”
Huo Yunshen’s cheek muscles tightened, “It’s best to disappear.”
He said so, but his cold heart was trembling.
It was better if she didn’t come.
He was not rare.
The liar who teased him, if she bothered him again, he would…
Huo Yunshen closed his eyes, turned his head and stared at the direction she must pass, and broke the pen in his hand. If she didn’t come, he would set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Yun Qing really didn’t come on time that day.
Huo Yunshen waited in the classroom until it was dark, his heart twisting into pieces that he couldn’t even put together.
That’s great, he had been waiting for this day for a long time.
His dark and cold lair was his only shelter, and no one needed to break into it.
What’s more, it was fake from beginning to end, and she never belonged to him.
Huo Yunshen’s eyes were mottled with blood. He kicked the chair away and left the classroom. His knuckles were clenched and he couldn’t feel the pain. He lowered his head and walked forward. Suddenly, he saw a pair of delicate and clean cloth shoes running towards him.
He froze, the blood all over his body burning suddenly.
Yun Qing panted quickly, and as always, stuffed the exquisite little bag to him, and explained in a soft voice: “I’ve been waiting in line for a meal, it’s been a while, I’m late, are you in a hurry—”
Huo Yunshen shook his fingers, and lifted the bag, throwing it back roughly, his voice was hoarse: “Waiting for you? Why will I wait for you?”
The moment he was poked in the center, he seemed to lose his barren barrier, revealing his most helpless weakness.
“Take it back!” He said fiercely, “Don’t appear in front of me again!”
Yun Qing bit her lip.
There was a noise coming from the direction of the school gate, Min Jing’s face was ugly, and he ran over: “Brother Shen! Those people are here again! There are more people than last time! That person is also—”
That person, Huo Linchuan.
Yun Qing grabbed his arm in a panic: “Don’t go.”
Huo Yunshen instinctively didn’t want Huo Linchuan to see Yun Qing, subconsciously feeling that it would be bad for her, especially the bloody scene, he never wanted her to see it again.
“Go!”
Yun Qing shook her head and stubbornly stopped him: “You will get hurt again!”
She was usually soft-tempered, but she was very persistent in the face of danger.
Seeing that he was about to be targeted, Huo Yunshen clasped her by the shoulders and drove her towards the small gate. He couldn’t help but speak harshly and unscrupulously. He said the most cold and hurtful words since so many times.
Yun Qing was stunned and tears rolled down her cheeks reflecting the light.
Huo Yunshen seemed to be crushed by a drop of her tears, and he froze in place, feeling cold all over his body for no reason.
Yun Qing took a step back and nodded: “Okay, I’m sorry, this is the last time, I won’t bother you again.”
Min Jing was scared to death. He had seen Brother Shen go crazy, but he had never completely lost his mind and beat people to death like tonight.
Huo Linchuan originally came to vent his anger by torturing, but he did not expect to see a more ferocious beast and mad dog than before, who could tear people apart alive and would not let him go.
Huo Linchuan felt unspeakable fear and blurted out angrily: “You look like a ghost, Yun Qing is blind, let’s have a good time, that she tried to find you! She really thought she could save you!”
Huo Yunshen stopped all his movements, as if he was crushed by a single word.
Yun Qing… came to him.
She had never… lied to him.
Every bit of tenderness, softness, and warm body temperature, the sweetness he longed for day and night, the love he thought was extravagant, and the love he resisted so hard, was all for him… And he, using the worst way, drove her away from his world.
Huo Yunshen returned to No. 4 Middle School in a mess, and the place where Yun Qing stood was already empty.
He couldn’t find her, had no contact information, couldn’t enter the yard of Yun family house, and he couldn’t touch the girl who haunted his reason and nerves in his dreams every night.
Huo Yunshen washed his own blood with cold water, and waited at the gate of Ninghua Middle School all night.
During school time the next day, he was shocked by the students passing by.
No one dared to set foot within three meters of him.
Huo Yunshen lowered his eyes deeply.
He was a demon, a mad dog, who killed and sets fire, had madness, and was a monster that everyone talked about.
But he… also hurt.
Would give everything, longing for a ray of light.
He wanted to… to apologize to Qingqing.
Fifteen minutes before class time, Yun Qing wearing the school uniform of Ninghua Middle School, with her long hair loose and without a headband, walked slowly into the crowd with her head down.
Huo Yunshen took his stiff legs and rushed to her side step by step, his dry lips parted, wanting to call her name.
For so long, he had never barked.
But he didn’t have time to speak at all, Yun Qing walked over quietly as if she didn’t see him.
Not a single peripheral look.
Huo Yunshen’s heart was crushed, he chased after her palely, and pulled her wrist.
Yun Qing broke away, still refusing to look at him, and asked softly, “Huo Yunshen, I’ve already listened to you, what do you want? I’m afraid of being beaten, and I don’t want to get close to you.”
Huo Yunshen’s eyes swelled with pain.
She still remembered the cruel words he said that night when they first met.
Stay away or I’ll hit you.
His throat hurt, he grabbed her hand forcefully, pressed it on his body, lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Qingqing, hit me, I beg you to hit me.”
