Luo Zhi had a very long dream.
In the dream, he was probably only five or six years old, or even younger.
The little sister in the cradle was so obedient and soft. She stretched out her hands, babbling, and smiled at him with curved eyebrows and eyes.
His parents were preparing a birthday present for him, and after it was ready they hid it secretly, teasing him with a smile, deliberately watching him get anxious and restless.
The eldest brother was sitting by the window reading a book. He was annoyed by the noise, so he sighed, put down the book, stood up, and carried him on his shoulders.
He sat on his eldest brother's shoulders and finally found his birthday present on top of the bookcase. He was so happy and proud that he couldn't wait to untie the ribbon tied around the wrapping paper.
…
As the beautiful ribbon was pulled out, a burning pain suddenly swept across Luo Zhi's back.
It feels like someone has pulled out a tendon.
Of course Luo Zhi had never had his tendons pulled.
He was not the darling of the East China Sea who caused the Dragon King to be furious and cover the sky for revenge in front of Chentang Pass, nor was he the third prince of the defending general Li who cut off his flesh to repay his mother and removed his bones to repay his father, and from then on they had no more ties with each other.
If a person is really forced to be naked and have his bones pulled out, and all the kindness of life and raising are wiped out, there will be no lotus incarnation to be used for resurrection.
If you can't be resurrected, then you are dead.
From now on, I know nothing, and I don’t need to know anything. No one owes anyone anything, and everything is easy and clean.
These are all myths. Myths are legends that embody certain strong beliefs and pursuits, and they are not true.
Just like in this dream, Luo Zhi is not real either.
He didn't know when he lost his original perspective and continued to watch the scene somewhere in mid-air.
It turned out that the sharp pain was caused by the zipper on his back being unzipped. Jian Huaiyi came out and took the carefully prepared gift. It turned out that time was no longer the same as when they were children. Luo Jun's brows were cold and sharp, and Luo Cheng had grown into a graceful young lady, no longer the little girl who would only cry behind him.
He was like a doll whose clothes had been taken off. He lay down with an empty heart and calmly watched everything in front of him, and was kicked away by someone in disgust.
…
The scene changed, and the person squatting in front of him turned into Ren Chenbai.
After all, it was just a dream. Everyone in the dream was strange, including Ren Chenbai.
Ren Chenbai just looked down at him.
Those eyes that were always gentle to everyone became cold.
It's not the kind of indifference that naturally keeps people away like Luo Jun, but the kind of coldness that is directed only at him and that says "How can you still live your life in peace?"
The last time Luo Zhi saw this kind of coldness was in Mrs. Luo’s eyes.
Mrs. Luo was ill and her mind was confused and she could not recognize people. She stared at him as if he was her most hated enemy, and tore off Luo Zhi's clothes, asking Luo Zhi to return her son to her.
Mrs. Luo refused to acknowledge Luo Zhi as her own son, and this became more and more obvious as his illness got worse.
Mrs. Luo firmly believed that Luo Zhi was the demon who had taken over her son's identity. Because Luo Zhi couldn't remember what he liked to eat when he was a child, or what hobbies he had when he was a child, Mrs. Luo always believed that he was a fake.
Mrs. Luo would cut the fruit plate and serve it to him with a smile in one second, and in the next second she would have a hysterical attack because Luo Zhi accidentally ate a piece of pineapple that he never wanted to touch as a child. She would glare at him fiercely with bloodshot eyes, wishing she could bite open his throat and swallow him, skin and flesh included.
…
Luo Zhi has become accustomed to these things.
What Mrs. Luo wants is a son who is exactly the same as the one in her memory, so Jian Huaiyi, who imitates him more closely, will become Mrs. Luo's spiritual pillar.
Mrs. Luo needed a stable environment, so he tried not to go back to the Luo family, and even if he went back, he would only stay in the most remote guest room on the first floor.
But until now, Luo Zhi still doesn't understand why Ren Chenbai looked at him like that.
This has almost become an obsession for Luo Zhi.
It’s not because of how important Ren Chenbai is in his heart.
Of course, Ren Chenbai is indeed very important in Luo Zhi's heart - but that is just a self-indulgent and wishful dependence on someone who can never become a family member - besides, Luo Zhi has grown up a long time ago and is no longer so ungrateful.
If I have to say it, this is probably a kind of confusion that contains a desire for knowledge.
I followed the drama to the most crucial part, watching the victim utter the three words "the murderer is" with his dying breath, and then his head tilted and his hands dropped, looking at the sudden ending song in confusion.
I spent a whole night studying a problem and came up with eighteen different solutions using different methods. Then I turned to the last page and found that the standard answer had been torn off. I was confused.
Luo Zhi really couldn't understand why Ren Chenbai hated him.
Perhaps this confusion will always haunt him, and he will become a ghost after his death, knock on Ren Chenbai's window, and ask about this matter openly.
Why did he become a ghost?
Because he had a high fever, he not only did not go to the hospital, but also locked himself in the car.
Why did he lock himself in the car?
Because he really didn't know where to go, this was the only place he could go, the only place he could hide.
Why are you hiding?
Because he is difficult...
The word "sad" did not stay in his consciousness for more than a second.
Luo Zhi's brain automatically blocked this part of the conclusion for him. He had known for a long time that he must not let himself get caught up in it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have enough strength to crawl out and return to this broken place to do it again.
The instinctive shock in her subconscious made Luo Zhi suddenly break out of her endless dream.
…
He was not in his car.
When he came to this conclusion, Luo Zhi had already pulled out the needle from the back of his hand, rolled off the bed, rolled under the bed, and grasped the needle tightly in his hand again.
These actions are done without any thought and are purely instinctive. After a long while, Luo Zhi gradually recovered from the chaos and disorientation of the fall.
He hid under the bed, half of his face pressed against the cold, hard tiles, with bright red blood dripping from the back of his hand.
This is a single room, very clean. White walls, white tiles, blue curtains and blue screens, a steel-framed bed, and a washbasin at the door.
Luo Zhi curled up her body and protected her chest and abdomen tightly, with the needle pinched between her fingers with its tip pointed outward, and her arms crossed to block the top of her head.
After checking his surroundings, he finally let out a low breath. The string in his brain that would always be infinitely taut in those few seconds between sleep and wakefulness trembled and relaxed little by little.
Luo Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at the blue and white striped hospital gown.
During those extraordinarily long ten seconds, Luo Zhi felt some regrets that even he himself was at a loss.
He didn't know where this regret came from, whether it was "Summary, the beautiful memories were just dreams and this is reality" or "Why can I still wake up?"
The latter sentiment is actually wrong.
Luo Zhi knew this, so he never asked himself unnecessary questions.
Rather than his own situation, Luo Zhi actually wanted to know immediately what happened to his car.
What did Ren Chenbai do to his car.
Why was Ren Chenbai able to get Luo Zhi out and force him to the hospital after he had locked the car and hid inside?
…
You know the answer isn’t that hard.
During the stalemate with Ren Chenbai, so many people in the mall recognized him, and naturally some people followed him to the parking lot.
What happened later was all over the Internet. It didn't take Luo Zhi long to find photos of the scene and several versions of the live retelling. The photos were taken from different distances and angles, fully recording the scene at that time.
Ren Chenbai called the police.
Ren Chenbai told the police that his brother had locked himself in the car because he was angry and might have done something stupid.
The tone was urgent and human lives were at stake, so they finally decided to break the house in by force.
Luo Zhi's car was equipped with bulletproof glass, and it was too difficult to break the window. Professionals brought electric welding and cutting machines and changed several angles before they finally dragged Luo Zhi, who had already fainted, out of the car.
There are all kinds of comments in the comments. Some say Luo Zhi is trying to gain sympathy by playing the victim, some say she is trying to commit suicide and wasting public resources, and some say no one would believe that she is such an adult and still does such things.
Of course, many people were attracted by Ren Chenbai because of this news - a gentle and cheerful nobleman who did not show any disgust even towards such a dirty and despicable burden like him, and personally carried Luo Zhi to the ambulance.
Maybe it's some law of conservation. The more people praise Ren Chenbai for being gentle, handsome and an ideal type in the world, the more people scold Luo Zhi for being ungrateful.
Luo Zhi doesn't care about these.
He clicked on these posts just to find the photos inside.
The rescue effort took so much effort that the car was naturally destroyed beyond recognition.
Luo Zhi clicked on the original images of each picture and saved them, then enlarged them to the limit and examined the details of the picture bit by bit.
He had just woken up and threw himself under the bed again. Although he managed to return to bed, he was still very dizzy and his vision was not clear at all.
But Luo Zhi still looked at it very seriously. He even opened the drawing editing software and buried his head in looking through the photos taken from different angles, mainly to take pictures of how miserable and ugly he looked. He checked his car and marked every place that could be repaired with a dark blue circle.
This was a very tedious and time-consuming task. After checking more than a dozen photos, Luo Zhi noticed that someone had turned on the light. He raised his head and saw a figure pushing the door open.
It took Luo Zhi some time to recognize that the blurry color block in her field of vision was Ren Chenbai.
Ren Chenbai did not come alone. He also brought Luo Cheng, and the two shadows stood on the edge of a large, almost bright ball of light.
Luo Cheng walked to Luo Zhi's bedside.
The girl didn't look very good. She bit her lip and looked at him silently.
Luo Zhi put down the phone and smiled: "Little sister..."
"What do you mean?" Luo Cheng asked at the same time, in a hoarse voice, "I just want to do what I want to do, do you have to punish me in this way?"
Luo Zhi paused and lowered his eyes.
"You want me to feel guilty for the rest of my life, right? You want me to blame myself forever and think that you are in trouble because of me."
"You didn't want to give the company to your second brother, so you staged this yourself."
Luo Cheng's voice seemed to tremble a little: "That's what you're thinking. You hate me, and you'll never let me off easily..."
Luo Zhi's pale fingers resting on the quilt twitched slightly, curled up a little bit, and then retracted into the palm of her hand.
"No." Luo Zhi's tone was very relaxed, "I fell asleep in the car."
His body sank back into the pillow, and he raised his head with a smile on his face: "I was too tired to wake up. Brother Chen Bai made a fuss and made things worse..."
"You are still wrongly accusing Brother Chen Bai!"
Luo Cheng gritted his teeth and glared at him with hatred: "It was obviously Brother Chen Bai who saved you! At that time, you almost--"
Luo Zhi looked at the needle hole on the back of her hand and said "Oh" slowly.
...Luo Cheng is really easy to be tricked.
During the years that Jian Huaiyi was in charge of taking care of the younger sister, he did not teach Luo Cheng how to be careful with her words and actions, or how to answer questions, but pushed her into that big melting pot of circles.
Luo Cheng seemed to come to his senses suddenly, closed his mouth tightly, and his face turned pale uncontrollably.
…
When Luo Zhi was carried out of the car by Ren Chenbai, her breathing was already very weak.
If a normal person has a high fever, the danger is not too great. But Luo Zhi also suffered from hypoglycemia at the time and fell into a coma. No one knew what would happen if time went on.
Luo Zhi herself only now learned about her situation at that time, but Luo Cheng clearly knew about it.
That's why he blurted out the words without thinking when defending Ren Chenbai.
“I almost died at that time.”
Luo Zhi finished her sentence softly, and then looked up with a little curiosity: "Little sister, you know I almost died, so your first reaction is to hate me. Are you questioning me for having ulterior motives and directing and acting out this story yourself?"
