Chapter 36 I Will Support You
The sky gradually darkened and the street lights on both sides of the road lit up one after another.
Tang Susu looked down at her watch. It was almost six o'clock.
It's time for her to go to a western restaurant.
She looked up at He Zhimo and waved her hand, "Come on, go back home! I want to go home too."
She just pushed her bicycle.
The next second, his wrist was grabbed.
She was startled, then tilted her head and smiled, "He Zhimo, is there anything else?"
He Zhimo looked at her. The girl's small face was as big as a palm, and her smile was bright and brilliant, clean and not polluted at all. She was born to be the center of attention.
He lowered his voice and said, "I can pay you back the remaining money next month. Don't worry."
Tang Susu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what he meant.
"You know I play the piano!"
She looked up at Shao Ge. In the pitch-black night, Shao Ge's peach blossom eyes were infinitely deep. "No wonder you're so anxious to pay me back?"
The wind was blowing gently, and a fallen leaf was drooping.
She stretched out her slender fingers, caught the withered yellow leaf, and whispered, "Don't think too much. I injured your leg, so I should be responsible. Besides, I don't work part-time just for you.
My dad probably wants me to admit my mistake to him, because I don’t have any living expenses this month. I’m actually working for myself.”
She pouted, revealing the innocent charm of a young girl, "I won't admit my mistake to him."
She fiddled with the fallen leaves in her hand, turned to look at He Zhimo and smiled, "I've been practicing piano since I was a child. I took part-time jobs as my regular practice. I used to practice piano for at least 8 hours a day!"
In the dark night, Shao Ge's voice was deep.
"I'll give you the living expenses."
Tang Susu was shocked. She didn't expect He Zhimo to say such a thing.
She tilted her head and laughed softly.
She stood on tiptoe and looked at He Zhimo, looking him straight in the eye, "He Zhimo, thank you, I know you have the ability to help me, but I can do it myself.
"but……
Just like, I help you rent a house, but you are unwilling to fully accept my help. It’s not because you hate me, but because you want to survive on your own.
And I, like you, want to rely on myself.”
He Zhimo looked at her quietly.
The two looked at each other.
The girl blinked and said playfully, "Don't worry, I'll stop working once I've earned enough to support myself. I'm good at playing the piano, and my boss even pays me an hourly wage!"
Tang Susu stood under the dim street light, her clear eyes surprisingly bright.
He Zhimo finally gave up and said, "Then I'll take you there."
Tang Susu thought that it was normal for He Zhimo to worry about her since she encountered Yan Lixue today.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Oh! Thank you, He Zhimo."
The young man stretched out his slender fingers and took the schoolbag for her.
She was distracted for two seconds and followed him.
"I'll carry the schoolbag myself!"
"I'll do it."
He Zhimo limped forward.
At the entrance of the western restaurant.
Before seven o'clock, the restaurant was already full of customers, just to listen to Tang Susu play a piece of music.
Tang Susu took her schoolbag with a smile and pointed to the western restaurant lobby. "Would you like to come in and listen to me play the piano?"
Unlike the few casual notes she played at the piano store last time, she wanted to play a complete song for He Zhimo.
He Zhimo raised his eyelids slightly and shook his head, "Not today."
He still has important things to do.
Tang Susu fell behind for a second.
She knows that not everyone likes piano.
It was her only talent, but unfortunately her friend didn't like it. It was a rare opportunity for her to show off.
She looked up again, with a bright smile on her face, "Naka! Be careful when you go back."
He Zhimo nodded, and with his slender hand he took out a bottle of banana milk from his pocket and handed it to her.
She would come to see him every evening, but today she was a little late. He was worried, so he went downstairs to look for her, and just then he saw someone bullying him.
And he took the milk with him when he went downstairs.
Tang Susu was stunned for two seconds, then took it and said, "Thank you!"
He seemed to like milk very much and would give her milk every time.
She waved her slender hand and raised the milk in her hand, "I'll go in first."
He Zhimo stood there, and waited until he saw Tang Susu's leaving back before he turned around and left.
The night was quiet, and the evening breeze made the leaves rustle.
There is no moon tonight, and there are not even a few stars.
I don't know when the street lights on this road broke down. It was pitch black and there was no light at all.
Yan Lixue supported his limp body and walked home in the dark, relying on his memory.
In the past, he could get home in a short time when passing this road.
But today I felt weak all over, and after walking for a long time, I only walked a little bit.
Thinking about it in the evening, he felt something was wrong.
He clearly wanted to beat up that little sickly guy.
But after just a moment of distraction, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away, and he fell to the ground limp and powerless.
"Fuck, next time I meet him, I'm going to cut him into pieces."
"And Tang Susu, I chased her relentlessly, but she refused and forced me to have sex with her before she realized how charming I am."
Suddenly.
Da da da!
There were light and heavy footsteps behind me.
In the dark night, the sound of tapping footsteps was so eerie and scary.
Yan Lixue suddenly became frightened.
The sound of approaching footsteps made his hair stand on end.
His body's instinct told him that there was danger behind him.
He forced himself to quicken his pace.
It's a pity that he was so weak that he couldn't run at all.
And behind him,
The footsteps are getting closer.
Getting closer.
Finally, he couldn't help it and turned around.
In the darkness, he could only vaguely see a silhouette.
The man was wearing a black sweatshirt and a hat, and was holding an iron rod in his hand.
Next second.
The man swung the cold iron rod and hit his leg hard.
He felt a sharp pain and almost fainted.
At the moment of coma, he felt the fear of death.
