I was listening in the corner... Every word was like a needle piercing my heart... I wanted to rush out, hug her, and tell her that I was also very sad, but what qualifications did I have? I could only hide here... I listened to her crying silently, letting the tears keep flowing, and the pain in my heart continued to spread in the night.
"I was wrong." After thinking for a long time, I slowly stood up, my voice a little hoarse and guilty, breaking the silence of the night.
Lin Feng and Lin Mengxi immediately turned around and looked at me..
When Lin Mengxi saw that it was me... she was stunned at first, and then the crying that had been unstoppable slowly turned into laughter... But that smile revealed endless bitterness and helplessness... Tears were still on her face, intertwined with that smile.
Lin Feng frowned instantly and his face turned gloomy. Without saying a word, he strode towards me and then punched me hard in the face, but I had no intention of dodging.
I just felt a sharp pain, my head buzzed, and warm liquid seemed to flow out from the corner of my mouth... I knew it was blood, so I just stood there, silently enduring the punch.
Lin Feng shouted angrily: "Fight back!"
I didn't move at all...and didn't even think about fighting back.
Lin Mengxi's face changed when she saw this, and she immediately ran over. She obviously hadn't expected Lin Feng to make a move, so she grabbed Lin Feng's raised fist and said urgently, "Brother...you promised me, and you're going to lie to me too?"
After hearing what Lin Mengxi said, Lin Feng slowly loosened his fists, looked at Lin Mengxi, and the anger on his face eased a little. He said to her, "I won't hit him again. I'll just say something to him..." After that, he walked around Lin Mengxi and came towards me. When he came to me, he whispered in my ear in a low voice, "Be careful. There are so many cars and people on the road... It's easy to have an accident." After that, he turned around and walked to Lin Mengxi, took her hand, and was about to leave.
I smiled helplessly on the side, knowing that there was something behind his words, but I didn't care too much... I wouldn't bother Lin Mengxi, nor was I afraid of his threats.
Lin Mengxi broke free from Lin Feng's hand and walked towards me. Looking at the corner of my mouth, her eyes were filled with heartache. She took out a tissue and wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth. She said, "I want to say sorry to you on behalf of Lin Feng. He was too impulsive."
I shook my head and said frankly, "No, there's nothing to be sorry about. If I had a sister who cried so hard over a good-for-nothing little bastard, I would do the same, and I might even be more unable to control myself."
"You're not a good-for-nothing little jerk in my eyes."
Lin Feng looked at Lin Mengxi who was still lingering here. He said to her impatiently, "Let's go! What else do you want to do?"
Lin Mengxi hesitated for a moment, pinched my face viciously, and said, "I forgot to bring my tools today. I'll come back here when I have the chance and dismantle it."
"Okay, tell me when you come, and I'll do my best to protect it."
Lin Mengxi just smiled and didn't respond to me... then turned and walked towards Lin Feng... Lin Feng took her hand and they slowly walked down the mountain. Her back became more and more blurred in the night and gradually disappeared from my sight.
I sat there for a while... The night wind blew, bringing a hint of coolness. For no reason, I thought of the scenes in the horror movies I had seen before, and suddenly I felt a chill on my back... I felt inexplicably creepy.
I stood up immediately...with trembling fingers, I took out a cigarette and took great effort to light it...I took a deep puff, then looked left and right...I always felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the darkness around me.
"Damn! Both fires are gone." I slapped my head... and suddenly remembered someone told me about the legend that people have three fires on their bodies. It is said that you cannot look left and right at night... otherwise the fire on your body will easily go out, and it will be easy to attract unclean things... I became even more panicked.
…
As I ran, I said, "Oh my god... what am I thinking? I've been in this mountain for so long, why wasn't I afraid?"
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and my steps became faster and faster. But after running for a while... I stopped again. I always felt like something was following me from behind. The feeling was like a shadow... It made me feel creepy.
I stopped... I quickly took out another cigarette, and even clipped two cigarettes between my ears, thinking that I could have more at any time... It is said that having fire on your body will be better, and you can't run... The more you run, the less courage you will have, and the fire in your heart will be extinguished... But I was extremely scared now, and my legs were a little weak as I stood there.
I walked carefully step by step, feeling extremely nervous... I looked down at the remaining cigarettes in my hand and counted them. There were only five left. I secretly groaned in my heart... These cigarettes were not enough to support me to go down the mountain. It was pitch dark here. If I didn't have cigarettes to give me courage... I really didn't know how to go down.
So, I didn't dare to inhale as hard as before, and just took gentle sips... hoping that the cigarette would last a little longer. But the more I walked, the more panicked I became... it felt like someone was staring at me from all sides. The eerie atmosphere... made me panic so much that my heart was almost in my throat.
I really couldn't stand this nervous mood anymore, so I hurriedly took out my cell phone... I wanted to find someone to talk to, to ease this scary atmosphere. After thinking about it... I called Chang Yue.
The phone beeped for a long time before it was finally connected. Chang Yue's familiar voice came from the receiver: "Brother Yu...what do you want? You won't be back on New Year's Eve. Humph, I'm going to celebrate New Year's Eve with the handsome guy now, so you stay outside by yourself."
