Chapter 29 k (n) Adam's Apple
On the last page of the notebook, Ke Yanlou wrote only one sentence: "You Wu, can you lie to me for the rest of my life?"
Now, in the narrow stairwell, Ke Yanlou was pushed against the wall by You Wu. With his hands in his pockets, he looked down at You Wu and said what only existed on the page: "Even if you lied to me all my life, I still admit it."
The cicadas' chirping in the summer night was loud and piercing, drilling into You Wu's ears and making her thoughts as tangled as a ball of twine.
You Wu pursed her lips, her fair face taking on a warm hue under the yellow light. She had prepared many unbearable words to stab Ke Yanlou.
He thought Ke Yanlou would definitely scold her and say that she was a heartless villain, but he didn't.
This made You Wu a little confused.
After a long while, You Wu choked up and said in a difficult voice: "When you say that, it makes me feel like a bad woman."
Ke Yanlou held You Wu's face and pinched it, laughing softly, with a hint of surrender: "What should I do then..."
"I like you even if you're a bad woman."
Ke Yanlou bent down to be at the same eye level with You Wu: "But the bad woman must be responsible for me."
You Wu felt so hot that sweat came out of her eyes. She used both hands to wipe the sweat from the corners of her eyes.
Ke Yanlou sighed helplessly, but also found it funny. How could he have made her cry?
I clearly intended to make things clear today.
Ke Yanlou wanted to wipe You Wu's tears: "Why are you shedding cat tears again?"
You Wu refused to admit it: "Those were not tears, they were sweat!"
Ke Yanlou usually has a cold face, so his facial expressions don't change much, but now the smile on his face is obvious: "Whatever you say, it is what it is."
You Wu cried for a long time. Ke Yanlou raised his hand, but stopped every time he touched You Wu's shoulder.
You Wu probably doesn't want him to touch her right now.
Ke Yanlou decided to be a ninja tonight.
After You Wu finished crying, she raised her head, with a pair of tearful eyes, and looked at Ke Yanlou eagerly, her face flushed.
Later, Ke Yanlou told You Wu that when she cried that day, she looked just like she was crying in bed because she was bullied.
At that time, he shamelessly stood in front of You Wu who was still crying.
Ke Yanlou: "......"
Ke Yanlou's Adam's apple rolled up and down twice.
The air around them became humid and hot. You Wu even cried a little while speaking: "Why didn't you hug me when I was crying just now?"
Ke Yanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, and his tone returned to its usual cold and natural tone, with a tone of admitting defeat: "You won't even let me kiss you, how can I dare to hug you?"
You Wu gritted his teeth: "Then you didn't kiss me?"
Ke Yanlou let out an "Ah..." sound and said in an indecent way, "Are you planning to punish me?"
You Wu glared at him and turned to go home. She felt that tonight might not be a good time to continue the conversation.
Ke Yanlou stretched out his hand to block her.
You Wu didn't even raise his head: "Don't stop me, I won't talk to you again today."
With a "click".
The door in front of You Wu was opened, and a slender hand holding the key ring stopped in front of her.
Ke Yanlou turned around, walked around You Wu and returned to the door opposite You Wu's house. He put on an indifferent look and said calmly: "Sorry, this is my home, I have to go home."
You Wu: "Isn't this Aunt Chen's home?"
Ke Yanlou was the first to enter. You Wu followed Ke Yanlou's figure and once again saw the butterfly painting on the wall in front of the door. She had also seen the painting before when Aunt Chen opened the door after playing mahjong, but she didn't see it clearly at that time.
Now she saw that the butterfly painting was signed with the letter "k"
You Wu remembered something.
Ke Yanlou actually doesn't want to study medicine or do any business.
He liked painting when he was in high school and had a small studio in his apartment.
You Wu accidentally walked in once. She saw the shadow of a girl on the canvas, but it was half covered by the cloth. She could only see the blue star hairpin on the girl's forehead.
If you only look at half of the girl's face, you will find that she is a little thin. You Wu had previously wondered if Ke Yanlou had drawn a picture of himself.
But this doesn't look like her.
At this time, Ke Yanlou suddenly grabbed her out. With a sullen face, Ke Yanlou warned You Wu: "Don't go in."
You Wu said "Oh" and looked up at Ke Yanlou: "Is the girl in the painting the one you like? You have been rejecting my pursuit because you like her."
"Yeah?"
Ke Yanlou was holding a can of soda in his hand, leaning against the table. He glanced at You Wu coldly, then raised his head and drank some soda, and asked tantalizingly, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
You Wu remembers that every painting in Ke Yan Lou would be signed "K"
It turns out that Ke Yanlou lives here.
You Wu frowned as he watched Ke Yanlou changing his shoes under the old silver-white iron door frame. He was very tall, almost level with the door frame, and his temperament was a bit gloomy, but it did not fit in with the room in this old residential area.
Even though the living room inside is clean and stylish, the iron door with rust on it is definitely not a place for Ke Yanlou to live.
Seeing You Wu still standing there in a daze, Ke Yanlou kindly invited You Wu: "You've been staring at me. Do you want to live in my house?"
You Wu shook his head decisively: "No!"
...
“Bang!”
When the two doors closed, some rust fell off the front door, and the sound was so loud that the voice-controlled lights instantly lit up the entire building.
You Wu took a Green Tongue ice cream and curled up on the sofa.
Xu Qiongfang grabbed the green packaging bag that You Wu had thrown on the coffee table and asked You Wu, "Where are your classmates?"
You Wu: "Let's go back. It's so late. We should rest."
Xu Qiongfang sighed, "I've wanted to tell you this for a long time. Didn't I tell you that your Aunt Chen rented out the house?"
You Wu hummed, his mind still blank.
Xu Qiongfang continued, "It was rented to your classmate Xiao Ke. I remember you were busy with a part-time job at that time. It was the summer vacation after the college entrance examination. He rented the house here at that time."
"Rented it during the summer vacation during high school?" You Wu sat up from the sofa, an indescribable emotion coming over him.
"How is that possible? He went to the United States after taking the high school entrance exam." You Wu took a bite of the ice cream. The stimulation of the ice cubes made her sober up a lot.
Xu Qiongfang pounded her leg and pointed the fan at You Wu: "I don't know about that. Maybe he rented a house and came back often. I often saw him, but it seemed that he was at the wrong time from you. He was at home when you were at school, and he never came back when you were not at school. Today was the first time you bumped into him."
Xu Qiongfang knocked on the fan, which was not very sensitive. She fixed the plastic cover of the fan with a nail and said, "He often helped me carry things before. He always sent me supplements. I didn't want them, so he put them at the door and said that you were too busy at school and asked him to deliver them."
At that time, You Wu was indeed very busy. He was pursuing a double degree and working a part-time job, and he rarely even called home.
As time went by, Xu Qiongfang also forgot about it.
The summer evening was blue in hue, and the evening breeze blew You Wu's wide skirt. As she put the last of her green tongue into her mouth, an unlikely idea suddenly popped into her mind.
Why did Ke Yanlou rent that room?
Why did I rent that room the summer after I graduated from the college entrance examination?
You Wu didn't dare to think about it too much. Her mind was in a mess, and even a shower couldn't wash it away.
After washing up, she lay on the mat in the small room, looking at the yellow ceiling. Her bed was next to the window. The blue night wind filled her entire room unscrupulously, blowing the photos that You Wu hung on the wall.
The room is really too small. I rented this house because I thought it was cheap, but it is quite clean.
You Wu’s favorite thing to do is to lie on the bed and look at the blue night, but tonight is destined to be restless.
"Beep." After two beeps, a long-lost person appeared in You Wu's list.
Xu Jiajia: [I’m getting married next month, will you come? ]
You Wu doesn’t have many friends, and Xu Jiajia is one of them.
She opened the chat box with Xu Jiajia and replied, "Getting married so early? That's not your style."
Xu Jiajia [Do you think I'm like you? No one pursues me. I just need to meet the right person. As for you, there are still people pursuing you. ]
You Wu frowned and replied to Xu Jiajia: [Who?]
Xu Jiajia [Class monitor. ]
You Wu never told Xu Jiajia about his recent entanglement with Ke Yanlou. How did Xu Jiajia know?
You Wu [How do you know that I am still in contact with Ke Yanlou? ]
Xu Jiajia【Guess.】
You Wu had a hunch that Xu Jiajia must know something. When she sent another message to ask Xu Jiajia, Xu Jiajia made a face at her and refused to say anything.
You Wu was so angry that he turned off the screen.
You Wu and Xu Jiajia's acquaintance was not smooth because it involved Ke Yanlou.
When I was in high school, almost half of the girls in the class had liked Ke Yanlou, and Xu Jiajia was one of them.
Xu Jiajia was very arrogant at that time. She hated You Wu very much because You Wu was Ke Yanlou's desk mate. Xu Jiajia was so angry that she found fault with You Wu every day.
Over time, You Wu has learned Ke Yanlou's cold expression completely.
Facing Xu Jiajia's yelling, You Wu only took out a mint candy and asked her: "Do you need to moisten your throat?"
Xu Jiajia was so angry that she started crying.
The turning point happened when Xu Jiajia had her period. You Wu bought sanitary napkins for Xu Jiajia, but Xu Jiajia forgot to return the money.
You Wu blocked her at the door and stretched out his hand: "Xu Jiajia, give me back my money."
Xu Jiajia was angry and annoyed. Her family was wealthy after all, and she just forgot to pay back the money. She was also very proud. Seeing You Wu's behavior, Xu Jiajia threw the money into her palm and said, "Country bumpkin!"
You Wu: "Arrogant monster."
Xu Jiajia pointed at You Wu's nose: "You!"
Later, when Xu Jiajia was stuffing flowers into Ke Yanlou's drawer, You Wu happened to come in from outside the door.
Xu Jiajia quickly said unnaturally: "What are you looking at? I warn you not to tell anyone."
You Wu sat down in front of the table expressionlessly: "Ke Yanlou doesn't like flowers."
Xu Jiajia snorted: "How do you know? You must be trying to trick me."
You Wu rolled his eyes at her: "What good would it be for me to lie to you?"
Xu Jiajia raised her eyebrows: "That's hard to say, what if you also like Ke Yanlou?"
You Wu chuckled twice: "I don't like this kind of hypocrisy."
Xu Jiajia swore to defend Ke Yanlou to the death: "How is the monitor hypocritical? He is just a little cold. What's wrong with you being a good student and being a little arrogant?"
You Wu blocked his ears because of Xu Jiajia's noise: "Whatever you think, he is allergic to flowers anyway."
Xu Jiajia pursed her lips and stared at You Wu. After a long while, she suddenly said to You Wu, "Want to make a deal?"
You Wu felt that this sentence was very familiar, and her eyes lit up: "Give me money?"
Xu Jiajia took out her phone and added You Wu’s WeChat: “Why don’t you kill me, you country bumpkin?!”
The deal between You Wu and Xu Jiajia was simple.
Just let You Wu help Xu Jiajia pursue Ke Yanlou.
Although You Wu wanted to pursue Ke Yanlou, she never felt that other girls giving gifts to Ke Yanlou would affect her.
Just fair competition.
Besides, now she can get two sums of money.
You Wu began to help Xu Jiajia put snacks into Ke Yanlou's drawer.
But Ke Yanlou actually doesn’t like snacks.
Every time Ke Yanlou was about to throw away the snacks, You Wu would stare at him.
Finally, Ke Yanlou handed the bag to You Wu: "Do you want it?"
You Wu raised his eyes and observed Ke Yanlou's expression: "Well, it would be a waste to throw it away."
From then on, snacks that Ke Yanlou didn’t ask for would appear in You Wu’s schoolbag when its pile was almost full.
It was not until You Wu was helping Xu Jiajia stuff chocolate into his mouth that he was seen by Ke Yanlou and caught red-handed.
Ke Yanlou stood there looking at You Wu and asked her what she was doing secretly.
You Wu pursed her lips: "Can't you see? I'll stuff chocolate into your mouth."
The chocolate that day did not end up in You Wu's bag, but was eaten by Ke Yanlou.
The boy sat beside her and opened the red chocolate wrapper with his fair fingers. He always hated sweets, but he took a bite of the sickly sweet chocolate. His drooping eyelashes cast a shadow on her clear skin.
You Wu asked him, "Why do you want to eat chocolate today?"
Ke Yanlou tilted his head and glanced at her. Everyone in the classroom was studying and the two of them were sitting at the back. It was extremely quiet here, and Ke Yanlou's frivolous look was completely exposed.
He turned sideways to You Wu, biting a piece of chocolate and said, "Care about me?"
You Wu denied: "Curiosity."
Ke Yanlou: "Curiosity kills the cat."
You Wu hit back: "Didn't you say I was a fox?"
Ke Yanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a long time, he suddenly raised his hand.
You Wu closed her eyes, thinking that Ke Yanlou was going to hit her.
In the end, Ke Yanlou just ruffled You Wu's hair and said, "It looks like a cat."
...
“Meow!”
“Meow!”
"Why is the cat downstairs still meowing? Spring has passed, but it's still in heat!" Xu Qiongfang waved a palm-leaf fan, walked to the window and closed the screen, then took some wontons out of the refrigerator.
Xu Qiongfang dragged You Wu up from the bed and said, "Go and give Xiao Ke some wontons."
You Wu refused to go: "I don't want to."
Xu Qiongfang slapped her butt with a palm leaf fan: "Go! I am an old man and I need to go to bed. He has helped me so much before, I need to return the favor!"
You Wuxin asked, "Does anyone like this gift?"
Ke Yanlou is indifferent to everything and I don't see him liking anything much.
You Wu felt that this scene was familiar. She used to bring wontons to Ke Yanlou often.
She knocked on the door.
It took about half a minute for the door to open.
Ke Yanlou had taken off the upper body clothes, leaving only a pair of black pants. The black leather belt stood out against his reflective white upper body.
Like a line of defense in a forbidden area.
Once you break through the belt, it's another world.
You Wu stared at his belt in a daze for a while, but heard a voice without any emotion coming from above his head.
"I didn't realize you had a habit of staring at other people there."
You Wu came back to her senses and bit her lip: "I was looking at the belt! What's so good about you?"
Ke Yanlou raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Are you sure?"
You Wu avoided his gaze and pushed the wontons in front of him: "Here, these wontons are for you."
Ke Yanlou spread out his hands, both of which were covered with foam: "I can't take it. Come in and help me put it in the refrigerator."
You Wu had no choice but to follow Ke Yanlou into the house.
This house is not big, after all, it is a residential building in the old campus, but the Keyan Building is very artistic, creating another world in the dilapidated shell.
The whole house is very clean. There are coral decorations on the small table in the middle of the living room. The green plants in front of the window add some life to the house. More importantly, the room is full of the flavor of Keyanlou.
Ke Yanlou pointed to the refrigerator to You Wu, and then went into the shower room, as if he really was unable to take the wontons because he was taking a shower, so he needed You Wu to come in.
After You Wu put the wontons away and was about to leave, he heard Ke Yanlou's voice coming from the shower room.
"Can you help me take off my clothes?"
You Wu didn't want to pay attention to him, but when she thought about Ke Yanlou helping her get it before, she accepted it and asked, "Where is it?"
Ke Yanlou's clear voice came through the sound of water: "The bedroom on the left."
You Wu: "Left?"
She walked to the bedroom on the left. A painting of a blue summer night hung on the door of the bedroom, like a blue cloth leading to a fairy tale world.
You Wu opened the door, but what he entered was not a fairy tale world.
But...
A room filled with her name and her portraits.
The first moment she opened the door, the word "You Wu" written all over the wall pierced You Wu's eyes like a thorny rose. She felt a chill coming from behind her, pushing her to walk into the house.
Wandering Mist
Wandering Mist
Wandering Mist
Wandering Mist
Wandering in the Mist Wandering in the Mist
do not leave Me......
The mist on the wall had become a little messy by the last few strokes, as if the person who wrote it had suffered an emotional breakdown.
On the other wall are paintings.
It was You Wu, who worked in a restaurant after the college entrance examination, wearing a chef's hat.
It was You Wu who joined the club as a reporter during his freshman year and took pictures of people with his camera.
It was the wandering fog on the way home on a summer night.
It was You Wu, who had just graduated from college and was wearing a bachelor's gown.
Every picture of You Wu has a "k" written on it.
You Wu couldn't describe her current mood. She was like a cat that had strayed into this world and jumped into a trap out of curiosity.
Will the cat Youwu be killed tonight?
You Wu didn’t know.
She saw a locked notebook on the desk.
But the notebook was not locked at that time, and the wind blew and the page just happened to fall.
You Wu saw the words on it -
2.1 Spring Festival
She came to see me again.
She sleeps next to me
Smells so good.
So soft.
I can't sleep.
I got hard three times.
This is Ke Yanlou's handwriting.
You Wu suddenly raised his hand to cover his mouth and dared not make a sound, because You Wu's name was also written at the end of the page, but it looked dark red.
It looks like it was written in blood.
You Wu covered her mouth, feeling like a person trapped in a horror movie, who could only wait for the evil spirit's claws to strangle her throat.
She stepped back step by step.
It was a dry and stuffy summer night, but You Wu felt as cold as if winter snow had fallen on her shoulders.
"puff!"
You Wu felt a touch of warmth on his back.
At the same time, a cold voice came from behind: "What did you see?"
"Um?"
As the person behind him spoke, he raised his index finger and slid it up along You Wu's spine from bottom to top.
You Wu's shoulders were shaking. She turned around slowly and looked up at Ke Yanlou: "You..."
Ke Yanlou raised his eyebrows as if nothing had happened: "Hmm?"
You Wu wanted to ask him why there were paintings of her at every stage after the college entrance examination.
I wanted to ask him why her name was everywhere here.
She had a lot of questions, but couldn't find any to ask right away.
Ke Yanlou took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He smiled at You Wu, and the emotion in his eyes was very light, without any embarrassment of being discovered: "You have discovered my secret again, and this time, the physical compensation seems not enough."
"How about I kill him to silence him?" Ke Yanlou raised his chin slightly towards You Wu, and the outline of a smoke ring emerged.
It was also at this time that You Wu, who had been looking at him, changed his expression from fear and terror to fear, to calmness and then to confusion.
Finally, You Wu snatched the cigarette from Ke Yanlou's mouth, and then bit Ke Yanlou's Adam's apple: "Kill me? Are you willing to do that?"
