Chapter 52 Night



Chapter 52 Night

The county town is very quiet at night, with few pedestrians and vehicles on the streets.

The shops on both sides of the road were emitting dim lights, and some shop owners had begun to remove the goods displayed outside the store to attract customers.

Lin Zhou drove back to his house.

Three years after graduation, he worked as a laborer in the family business for two years! In return, his father bought him a car and a house.

The car is that Mercedes!

The house is in a high-end community within the second ring road of the ancient city. In order to let him stay in the ancient city, his father spent a lot of money.

This house in the county town was left to him by his mother. It was the home of the three of them when he was a child! After returning to the county town to start a business, he has lived here ever since!

Lin Zhou took out the key to open the door, turned it twice and found that it wouldn't open!

The door seems to be locked from the inside!

Who went in?

"Pa pa pa————" Lin Zhou knocked on the door!

Only he and his parents have the key to this house. His father would never come back suddenly, so could it be his mother?

"Mom, open the door, it's me!" Lin Zhou shouted into the door!

There was a rustling sound of slippers stepping on the ground inside!

The door opened and a middle-aged woman stood inside.

The woman was not tall, had a slim figure, fair skin, and her hair was casually tied up on her head. She was wearing a home dress and an apron, and holding a spatula in her hand. It seemed that she was cooking!

"Why are you here?" Lin Zhou threw the car keys on the shoe cabinet in annoyance, changed into slippers and walked towards the room.

It wasn't Mom! I guess Dad gave her the key!

So annoying!

"Xiao Zhou, you're back! Come wash your hands and have dinner! I made your favorite dish today!" The middle-aged woman followed him.

"Go back! I'm tired!" Lin Zhou slammed the door shut. The woman almost bumped into the door, and the spatula in her hand fell to the ground with a bang!

"Xiao Zhou, I came back today specifically to see you. You weren't in the company all day. Where were you?"

“…”No sound from inside!

"Xiao Zhou, did you hear me?"

“…”

"Then I'll put the food on the table. Remember to come out and eat later! I won't go back today. I'll leave tomorrow!" The middle-aged woman picked up the spatula and returned to the kitchen, bringing all the prepared food to the dining table.

Four dishes and one soup, both meat and vegetables, very rich!

She ran to Lin Zhou's room and knocked on the door: "Xiao Zhou, the meal is ready, come out and eat! I'll go first..."

"Go! Get out!"

Before the middle-aged woman could finish her words, Lin Zhou suddenly opened the door and pointed at the door and spoke to the woman impatiently.

"Xiao Zhou, don't be like this..."

"Didn't you hear? Get out!"

"Xiao Zhou... stop pushing me. Okay, okay, I'm leaving. You have to let me change my clothes!"

The middle-aged woman took off her apron, went back to the house to change her clothes, and left in high heels!

Lin Zhouyi waited for her to go out and then locked the door!

He walked straight into the room without even glancing at the food on the table!

His room was connected to a balcony and had a lot of space! However, the furnishings inside were simple, with only a bed and a few wooden easels!

There are some portrait sketches on the easel, some of which are completed and some of which are just outlined!

Those sharp outlines and clear bone structure are all of the same person!

There were two photos on the bedside table: one was a photo of him with his parents when he was a child, and the other was a photo of him and Tian Xin in the park! Next to them was the doll that Tian Xin had drawn - Sailor Moon.

Lin Zhou picked up the photo of himself and Tian Xin and leaned on the bed. He stroked the sweetly smiling Tian Xin in the photo with his fingers and sighed.

I wonder if Tian Xin has arrived home yet? Did Zhang Shuai see her enter the house?

After separating from Weicheng, he followed Zhang Shuai's car all the way to Xiaowan Village, and didn't leave until the car drove into the village entrance! He didn't dare to follow too closely, for fear that Tian Xin would notice.

Putting the photo down, he picked up his phone and quickly sent a text message: "This is Lin Zhou. Did she get home safely?"

“Here we are. I watched them go in!” Zhang Shuai replied.

[Keep a close eye on her these few days. I'll come over when I find out!]

[Don't come over yet, I'll keep a close eye on him! ]

[No, I can't bear the thought of not seeing her...]

Lin Zhou quickly typed this sentence, thought about it, and deleted it. After deleting it, he typed another sentence: "Tell me if you have any difficulties!" He thought about it and deleted it again!

Finally, I just typed one word [OK] and sent it out!

He threw down his phone and walked to the balcony, feeling inexplicably irritated!

The view outside the window was beautiful. Standing on the balcony, he could see the lights of thousands of houses. He stared at a child playing on the balcony of the building opposite for a long time! The child had short hair just like Tian Xin!

After looking at it for a while, he turned around, sat down at his easel, and picked up his pencil to start a new sketch. With just a few strokes, a clear figure appeared on the canvas. The figure was thin and had a sad expression. This time, the picture also included a road and a speeding car!

The friction between the pencil and the drawing board made a very harsh sound. Lin Zhou painted faster and faster, his emotions fluctuating with the picture. After finishing the last stroke, he picked up the painting and stood up. He looked at it for a few seconds, then quickly crumpled it into a ball and angrily threw it into the trash can!

Then he punched the wall, resting his head on his fist and breathing heavily.

After a long time, he turned around and sat on the ground!

Why?

Why did he know this only now?

If we had noticed it earlier, would what happened today not have happened?

Did you meet Liu Bo in early April after they met?

Or before?

It was probably after that, so she sent a message asking me not to contact her again!

I guess you didn’t even read that letter!

That’s why she reacted like that after I confessed my feelings last time!

How badly was he hurt that we can't even get close to him!

Lin Zhou leaned against the wall, recalling everything that happened today, and fell asleep in a short while!

"Lin Zhou, your mother doesn't want you anymore. You have to call me mom from now on. Do you understand?"

"Your mother doesn't want you anymore. She doesn't want you anymore because of acting! You have to call me mom, okay?"

"You have to call me mom, do you hear me? Come on, call me mom and let me hear you? Call me mom! Call me mom!"

"Ah!!!!" Lin Zhou woke up suddenly, gasping for breath, with sweat all over his forehead!

The room was completely dark, without a single ray of light. He felt with his hands that he was sitting on the ground, and then he stood up and walked towards the bed!

There were some drawing papers scattered on the ground, and he stepped on them.

He realized it might be the paintings, so he squatted down to pick it up. After groping for a long time, he accidentally knocked over an easel and hit it on his head! A sharp pain shot through his head, and he reached out to touch it, and it seemed to be bleeding!

He got up and groped his way to the head of the bed in the dark, found the bedside lamp and turned it on.

There was indeed blood on his head. He took out a tissue and covered his head with it, preparing to go to the bathroom to wash it!

As he turned around, he saw the scattered drawings on the ground. They were all portraits he had drawn. He squatted down, picked up the portraits one by one, and put them back on the easel.

After watching them return to normal, he got up and went to the bathroom.
