Stay Safe

"Did she not tell you anything?" Lu Xiaoyun asked unexpectedly.

Lu Xiaojun thought that Muzhenxi would be willing to get back with Xiao Jin, and to a certain extent she must have known what happened to her in the past. Even if there is something to hide, such as this money, it will not hide too much. How can I listen to Muzhenxi's words, it seems that I don't know anything.

So how did they get back together?

If it was easy to get back together, why would Xiao Jin have to come to Yuanyuan for a few years?

"I said a few things, but I took them all in one stroke, otherwise I wouldn't come to you." Wooden pillow Brook said.

"So it is." Lu Xiaoyun sighed.

Xiao Jin has been a very obedient and good child in Lu Xiaoyun's mind since she was a child. For the first time, she discovered that the daughter she had raised for so many years was so stubborn and stubborn, and she and her father were caught off guard.

In the past, Lu Xiaojun might not have believed the rhetoric of Wooden Pillow Stream, but ten years later, she felt that it was in line with Xiao Jin's character.

Muzhenxi threatened Lu Xiaoyun as a last resort. Seeing Lu Xiaoyun's calm expression at this moment, he could not help but slow down his tone and said, "Auntie, I don't mean to offend you, I just want to know the specific truth back then, she was always hiding it from me, I... "Muzhenxi is not good at expressing his emotions in front of outsiders. After a pause, Fang said, "I feel bad in my heart."

Just this sentence made Lu Xiaoyun's eyes red.

It's not just that the wooden pillow stream is uncomfortable, she is even more uncomfortable as a mother. If the wrong thing in the past was caused by someone else, she could comfort Xiao Jin as a mother, but the culprit is herself, she has no face to go to Xiao Jin.

Wooden Pillow Creek handed Lu Xiaojun a tissue.

Lu Xiaoyun took a light breath and suppressed the raging tears: "Thank you."

Because of Xiao Jin, the distance between the two of them has never been closer.

Lu Xiaoyun slowed down and said, "I'll tell you everything right now."

Regardless of whether Xiao Jin would be angry or not, Lu Xiaoyun decided to say it. She knows how much Xiao Jin has taken on and how many crimes she has suffered. She wants to tell Muzhenxi about this because she wants Xiao Jin's efforts to be seen. In this sense, she is just an ordinary mother who cares for her daughter.

Wooden Pillow Creek poured a cup of tea for her.

Lu Xiaoyun half-squinted his eyes and made a look of memory. After a long time, he said, "We have to start from March 2008. At that time, because Xiao Jin applied for a liberal arts school, the atmosphere in our home was very rigid for a long time... …”

"You really don't want her to study literature?" Muzhenxi said stunned, she found that she knew so little, she knew nothing.

"Of course." Lu Xiaoyun looked at her with a very inexplicable look, "Our family is in business, and we naturally hope that she will inherit the family business in the future, so that she can learn some literature. In her father's words, that kind of thing cannot create commercial value. It's useless, it can only be used as a hobby."

Wooden pillow Brook said: "You continue to speak."

Lu Xiaojun said: "Her father and I were very angry, Xiaozhi moved with emotion and reasoned, and said a lot of good things, but she refused to change. Her father has always had a good temper, so he almost beat her that time. We feel that The daughter who has always been obedient and obedient has become like this, someone must have broken her and finally locked her on you."

The corner of Muzhenxi's mouth rose slightly, and a bitter smile was drawn.

She shamelessly thought that she could change Xiao Jin's life aspirations, but it was impossible to say that she had nothing to do with her. Although Lincheng No. 1 Middle School paid equal attention to both liberal arts and sciences, the social ethos was to "emphasize rationality while ignoring literature". When the first year of high school was not yet divided into classes, Xiao Jin was a good seed in the eyes of the head teacher. Everyone was sure that she would choose the science class. The results are astounding. Muzhenxi asked Xiao Jin, and Xiao Jin said that studying literature and theory didn't matter to her. Anyway, she had already finished her self-study in high school, because Muzhenxi was in the liberal arts class.

Under the influence of Xiao Jin, Wooden Pillow Stream came into contact with a lot of literature and philosophy books. Even if he swallowed the dates wholeheartedly, he also figured out the charm of words, otherwise he would not fall in love with writing love poems to Xiao Jin. She knew early in the morning that Xiao Jin was going abroad. When chatting, she asked her what university and major she wanted to study. Xiao Jin said that she wanted to study literature, but her expression was obviously hesitant. Wooden Pillow Creek asked her if she had any concerns, and she didn't look happy at all.

No matter how thoughtful Xiao Jin was, he was only an eighteen-year-old child at the time, and faced with the choices in his future life, he couldn't do it lightly. At noon that day, she was sitting on the steps of the school playground, taking the wooden pillow stream as a rare object that could help her solve problems, and asked earnestly, "If there is a very important matter in front of you, should you listen to your heart or should you give in? Reality?"

"What's the matter?"

"For choosing a major, my parents want me to study business. I have no interest in doing business. I want to study literature. What do you think I need to study?"

"I think?" The students in the ivory tower are all idealists. Even if Muxianxi took up the burden of the family early, he really felt that it was better to make money than to do writing work. If she could choose her, she would definitely choose to make money. Xiao Jin is so smart, she can definitely do anything well, but she hopes that Xiao Jin can do what she likes, be happy all her life, make money, and she will work hard in the future! So she replied, "Of course you choose what you like."

"But my parents said that it's useless." Xiao Jin lowered his eyelashes, and his fingers tugged at the grass growing from the root of the wall on the steps down the stairs.

"How can it be a useless thing?!" Wooden pillowxi reacted violently, almost jumping up, what Xiao Jin likes is the most useful and best thing in the world! Xiao Jin's reading is also the most beautiful in the world! She racked her brains to comfort her quickly, but there was very little ink in her chest, Shakespeare for a while, Tolstoy for a while, and she said that literature is the ladder of human progress.

Xiao Jin was amused by her and rubbed her head: "Okay."

Sweaty Wooden Pillow Stream: "Huh?"

Xiao Jin looked at her with firm eyes and said, "I decided to choose liberal arts."

She made a decision, but Muzhenxi worried for her instead: "Where's your parents?"

Xiao Jin looked at her sad little face and couldn't help but say, "I will solve it, it's not a big problem."

Her words were relaxed, and Muzhenxi didn't take it to heart anymore.

Eighteen-year-old Muzhenxi felt that Xiao Jin was omnipotent, and what she said was the truth.

She didn't know that Xiao Jin also had things that she couldn't solve, and she couldn't help herself, such as her major, such as being deceived to go abroad... many, many.

...

Lu Xiaoyun said: "Although you never came when we were at home, the nanny and driver at home knew you. Xiao Jin never brought outsiders to the house. You were the only one, and you came in and out very frequently. No matter what Xiao Jin thought. Concealed, or let us discover the too close relationship between you and her."

Muzhenxi said, "You deceived her later?"

Lu Xiaoyun shook his head.

"No, at that time her father wanted to talk to you. We didn't actually plan to do anything to you at that time, we just wanted you to persuade her to solve things one by one, first to solve her school problems, and then to solve your problems. But Xiao Jin may have misunderstood what we meant, and her reaction was very intense, that is, her father was not allowed to find you, and she even agreed to our request and gave up studying literature. "

Wooden Pillow Creek looked at the ceiling overhead.

It turned out that her parents knew about their relationship so early and strongly opposed it. I also tried to come to her, what were I doing at that time? Muzhenxi recalled in a trance, as if she was running around for her grandmother's medical bills, and by the way, she had a little quarrel with her mother who only gave birth and no support, and a big quarrel every three days. Xiao Jin always appeared in a timely manner, stayed by her side, listened to her daily troubles, and wiped her tears. She herself said nothing. It did not say that she gave up her ideals, nor did she say the pressure in her family.

If Xiao Jin's parents appeared at that time, he would probably collapse because he was unable to cope, right?

Lu Xiaoyun said: "After this matter is settled, we will start to plan the next one. Don't say you are a girl, even if it is a boy, under your conditions, we will never allow Xiao Jin to have any emotional entanglement with you. , Of course, the most important thing is because you are a girl, at that time her father and I felt that such a relationship was unacceptable, we must not let her go down the wrong path, we have to correct her."

Mu Zhenxi lowered his head and looked at her quietly, great anger swept through those clear eyes, and took a deep breath: "So you decided to deceive her?"

Lu Xiaoyun opened his mouth and said abruptly, "Yes."

Mu Zhenxi said: "Do you think that according to her character, the trouble will be over in two days, and even the trouble will not be troubled. After a period of time, you will accept your arrangement obediently."

Lu Xiaojun smiled bitterly, unable to refute her: "Yes."

Muzhenxi said coldly: "You have experienced her persistence in professionalism in advance, do you still think she will obey her words? If you hadn't squeezed her handle in your hands, would she have easily compromised?"

Lu Xiaoyun said in a wrong way: "Because the professional matter has been resolved." At that time, she and Xiao's father even thought that when she went abroad, there might be new opportunities to let her embark on the right path as soon as possible.

Wooden Pillow Creek laughed lowly, and the arc of the corner of his mouth was full of ridicule.

After solving one problem, it can be regarded as nothing has happened. In their eyes, Xiao Jin's insistence is just a needless struggle, and in the end, they have to be obedient. What they want, is it a machine that follows their rules step by step, or a lively daughter?

Lu Xiaoyun said: "We originally wanted to take her abroad earlier, but there was no chance. She ran to the hospital every day. Until one day, she was lying on the bed crying, and I asked her, saying that she had quarreled with you, and said Some angry words, I know, the opportunity has come."

Wooden Pillow Creek's fingertips holding the cup turned white from the force.

That was the most regretful thing Lu Xiaoyun had done in his life.

Xiao Jin was taken abroad. Because of the wooden pillow, he was not very interested in playing. He went out on the first day, and found various reasons to say he didn’t want to go the next day. He stayed in the room to write papers, take notes, and summarize questions. Type, one sitting is a whole day.

Lu Xiaoyun stood by and watched, bringing her a glass of milk in the middle of the night.

In order to facilitate things, she and Xiao's father never clearly expressed their disgust for Xiao Jin as a homosexual, and even Lu Xiaojun took the initiative to ask about Wooden Pillow Creek in order to reduce Xiao Jin's defensiveness. If it weren't for the trust in Lu Xiaoyun, at that time when Lu Xiaoyun said that he would take her abroad to relax, Xiao Jin would never agree.

Xiao Jin is just a child who has just come of age, and has a natural sense of trust in his mother. Her father's attitude was lukewarm, but Lu Xiaojun didn't object. He vaguely agreed with him, so he thought of putting his mother in his camp. She talked to Lu Xiaoyun about Muxianxi, how good she was, how good she was, how hardworking and motivated she was, how they met, and some interesting things in school.

She is a little girl who is in love. When she talks about her sweetheart, the corners of her brows and eyes are full of affection, and there is a unique light in her eyes.

Lu Xiaoyun has also been in love. She has a strong friendship with Father Xiao. She sees her daughter in a foreign country every day, facing the mountains of boring exam papers. She doesn't feel bitter but happy. She knows why.

She became a little soft-hearted. As time passed, the day of returning to China was getting closer and closer. She went to Father Xiao to discuss whether she could adopt a gentler approach, or simply stop interfering in her emotional life. She wanted to do that. A smile appeared on Xiao Jin's face all the time.

Father Xiao is much more cold-hearted than her. What's wrong is wrong. He can't go further and further on the wrong road. He also said that Lu Xiaoyun is going back more and more, and he has followed the path of a child.

The family's major affairs have always been decided by Xiao's father. Lu Xiaoyun sighed after hearing what Xiao's father said, and dismissed the idea.

A week has passed, and the night before, Xiao Jin asked Lu Xiaoyun what time the plane returned to China. Lu Xiaojun didn't dare to face her bright eyes, so he vaguely walked over and told her to ask her father. Father Xiao said something unexpected and had to delay his return for two days.

Before two days, Xiao Jin eavesdropped on the two of them that night, and pierced the window paper that was covered by his parents.

She was very calm at first, and there was no panic of being detained at all. The children taught by Xiao's family were like the two of them. Xiao Jin negotiated with her parents first, but Father Xiao didn’t even bother to listen to her negotiating skills. She said sharply: Her passport and identity documents have been detained, and she has to stay abroad, and she has to stay even if she doesn’t!

Negotiations ended in failure.

Xiao Jin silently returned to the room.

On the first day, there was no movement in the morning, and the afternoon was earth-shattering.

She looks like a different person, smashing everything that can be smashed, vases, utensils, TV refrigerators, moving chairs and smashing things that can't be thrown with her hands, her eyes are bloodshot, she is screaming, hysterical, like a lunatic.

Lu Xiaoyun panicked, Xiao's father held her down, narrowed his eyes calmly, and said, "Don't be fooled, this is her strategy, just to scare you."

Known daughter Moruofu.

Xiao Jin had been "crazy" for two days, and her parents watched indifferently, not appearing in front of her at all.

She tried to negotiate again, but was rejected.

She decided to go on a hunger strike.

Whether it was a strategy or her passive resistance, Father Xiao and Lu Xiaoyun were forced out.

Lu Xiaojun adopted the policy of empathy, Xiao Jin didn't listen to anything, and only said repeatedly, "Let me go back to China." When she returned to China, she would naturally eat.

It is difficult for a person to resist hunger. Lu Xiaojun couldn't persuade her, but Father Xiao decided to starve her for two days with a cold face. Three days later, Xiao Jin locked himself in the room without Dimi entering.

Father Xiao sent someone to pry open the door, and he had already passed out on the ground, his body covered with scars from hunger.

It's okay to not eat, and there are nutrient solutions to hang, and it can still maintain life.

Xiao Jin was lying on the bed, motionless and silent, staring at the ceiling above his head without blinking, like an unconscious stone statue.

Having said this, Lu Xiaoyun took a sip of cold tea and looked up at the wooden pillow stream opposite.

Mu Zhenxi's reaction was very strange, and his expression was calm, but there seemed to be some strong emotions suppressed under that appearance, and it was just tense.

"Her persistence is beyond our imagination. Her father has come up with a solution."

"What can I do?" Muzhenxi lowered his eyes, his voice was soft, and he didn't look at her at all.

It has been a long time, but every time Lu Xiaoyun thinks back, those details are still very clear, if everything hadn't happened.

Lu Xiaoyun closed her eyes in pain, and said in a hoarse voice, "We made our mind up on you. She can give in for you the first time, maybe the second time."

Muzhenxi tugged at the corners of his mouth sarcastically, and closed his eyes, his eyelids warm.

Father Xiao sent someone in the country to find out that Muzhenxi had spent all the medical expenses for grandma's treatment. He also deliberately stayed for two days and took a video of her crying in the corridor with her arms crossed.

In the living room, he started the second negotiation with the frail Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin lowered his eyelashes indifferently and remained indifferent until Father Xiao put this video in front of her. Her calm expression finally showed great pain and anger, her eyes were red, and Lu Xiaoyun was shocked by those eyes!

Just like Muzhenxi did to Lu Xiaoyun today, Father Xiao presented two choices: either, Xiao Jin broke up with Muzhenxi, and he would be responsible for the medical expenses of Muzhenxi’s grandmother; or, Xiao Jin continued to insist, he didn’t mind giving it to the other party again. Make a little stumbling block.

Xiao Jin will not watch the other party die, he can be sure that Xiao Jin will definitely choose the first path.

Father Xiao devised a strategy and never made a miscalculation in his life, but he fell into trouble in this matter, resulting in irreversible consequences.

Xiao Jin looked at her father with hatred, and looked at Lu Xiaoyun pleadingly.

Lu Xiaoyun couldn't bear to turn her head away. She couldn't make up her mind, so she chose not to watch. At the same time, she also had a thought in her heart, hoping that after today, this matter can be completely over, as long as it survives this time.

Xiao Jin smiled sadly and lowered his eyes, as if giving up resistance.

The couple looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

No one noticed that her drooping eyes were focused on the sharp corner of the coffee table not far away, and no one thought that her body, which had to be supported even when she walked, could explode with such great strength in an instant.

It wasn't until Xiao Jin fell to the ground with blood on his forehead and blood on his forehead that Lu Xiaojun let out an uncontrollable scream!

Father Xiao knelt down on the ground, his eyes were red, his body was shaking, and he blocked the blood hole in her head with his hands.

Xiao Jin's eyes were half-open, blood splattered on his face, one hand tightly clutching the corner of Lu Xiaoyun's clothes, his pale lips moved.

Lu Xiaojun leaned in to listen.

Only two words repeated.

"Help her."

Lu Xiaoyun burst into tears: "Okay, I promise you."

Xiao Jin let go of his five fingers, his wrists drooping weakly, a reassuring smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and he closed his eyes.

Xiao Jin chose the third way.

Exchange her death for the life of Wooden Pillow Creek.

Xiao Jin was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment, where he hovered on the line of life and death several times, and his heart stopped beating for a while. She was too weak, and she had the heart to die, and she didn't leave any way out for herself. It is also because he is too weak and the strength of suicide is not enough, leaving a ray of life.

She was lying on the hospital bed with repeated high fever, and after a brief awakening, she was ushered in a longer coma. It was not until two months later that the condition was initially stabilized.

She wanted to go back to China to find someone for the first time, and was ordered by the doctor to recuperate. She used a very serious tone. She was not in good health, because of the serious illness, she was even weaker and could not move easily. But when the person watching her was unprepared, she sneaked out, accidentally broke her leg, and had another operation.

In the end, Xiao's mother and Xiao's mother could only allow her to drag her sick body back to China.

It was the end of summer vacation.

When she left, in early April, the grass was growing and the warbler was flying, high-spirited.

Even Lin Cheng changed his sub-world.

The most terrible thing is that the wooden pillow creek disappeared.

When she disappeared, no one knows.

...

Lu Xiaoyun burst into tears, choked to wipe her own tears.

Mu Zhenxi wanted to ask something, but the moment he opened his mouth, a suffocating throbbing pain suddenly surged in his chest, and the pain almost made people faint.

She clasped the edge of the table with her fingers, and slowly subsided the sudden pain.

Lu Xiaoyun heard the muffled groan of Muzhenxi, raised her eyes and saw her face was terribly pale, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Wooden Pillow Creek gritted his teeth and shook his head.

Lu Xiaoyun said no more.

Mu Zhenxi loosened her fingers and clenched her fists under the table, with blue veins bursting out from the back of her hands, and her chest still aching, she secretly took a deep breath and asked, "What's wrong with her headache? It's because of that times?"

Lu Xiaojun's face turned pale, and he said hoarsely, "Yes. We discovered the root cause of the disease later. I'm not sure if it was the bump, or the high fever later, or both."

Muzhenxi knew the result, but asked again without giving up: "Is there a possibility of a cure?"

Lu Xiaojun turned pale and whispered, "No."

If they had, they wouldn't feel so guilty. Every time Xiao Jin had a headache, life was better than death, it was like a loud slap in the face to remind them of the wrong things they did back then.

There was a hint of pity in Lu Xiaojun's eyes, and it may be the same for Muzhenxi now. The money she took was stained with Xiao Jin's blood. She seemed to understand why Xiao Jin refused to tell her the truth. In the future, every time Xiao Jin has a seizure, she will bring those old things that she can't bear to look back to before her eyes, and the guilt is destined to accompany her for the rest of her life.

Lu Xiaoyun and Father Xiao have endured it for ten years, and they know how painful it is to see Xiao Jin suffer.

Lu Xiaoyun suddenly didn't know whether what he did today was right or wrong. For some things, it is better to not know than to know.

Why must a truth be demanded?

A question popped up in Mu Zhenxi's mind, why there were no scars after the hit was so serious back then, and she didn't see any old scars on Xiao Jin's forehead.

Lu Xiaoyun was even more sympathetic, looked at her, and said slowly: "She had a car accident after returning to China, and she was injured in the same place as before. You were in a car with her at that time, you should know..."

There was a rumbling sound in Muzhenxi's head, and no sound could be heard in his ears.

Xiao Jin once fought for her, but twice.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Wooden pillowxi stood up, his lips trembling, trying to maintain his calm, but tears still flowed out in an instant. Lu Xiaojun handed her a tissue, Muzhenxi waved his hand, and stumbled away.

Lu Xiaoyun sat in the same place and didn't move. He heard the waiter's concerned voice, and heard the wooden pillow creek's voice hoarse and asked the waiter "Where is the bathroom", and the distant place, as if it came from many years ago, Xiao When Jin thought it was just a simple vacation abroad, she jumped like a bird when she mentioned her sweetheart.

"Mom, she's really good. I'll take you to see her when I return to China, okay?"

Lu Xiaoyun burst into tears, touched her daughter's soft hair, and said softly to the air in front of her, "Okay."
