After returning to the tofu shop to bathe and fumigate herself, Su Ruanruan went out to sell tofu.
After selling the last piece of tofu at half price, he put the empty carrying pole aside and plopped down on a nearby stone bench.
He licked his slightly dry lips.
He stared blankly in the direction of Tianhong Academy.
At this hour, no one knows what Mu Bai is doing.
As soon as this thought crossed her mind, Su Ruanruan was stunned again.
She quickly closed her eyes, "Don't think, don't think..."
I tried hard to get that familiar figure out of my head.
"elder sister……"
"elder sister……"
Su Ruanruan suddenly opened her eyes, but was startled by a face that was inches away from hers.
That delicate face almost trembled on her cheek.
He was looking at her with his wet, blinking eyes.
If I hadn't known Mu Bai first, it would have been really hard to resist that eye-catching face.
Su Ruanruan leaned back slightly, avoiding mingling her breath with his.
She cleared her throat and lowered her voice, "Who's your sister? You've mistaken me for someone else!"
"My sister has forgotten me so quickly, my heart really aches."
As he spoke, his eyes reddened, and he grabbed Su Ruanruan's hand, reaching for her chest.
"Sister, it hurts here, you kicked me so hard."
Su Ruanruan, "..."
"What did you say? I don't understand."
Su Ruanruan quickly withdrew her hand.
Good heavens, what's going on with Qingfeng Pavilion?
Why would you need to contact her for after-sales service for such a harmless kick?
Ugh, bad review!
She was wearing a veil and had changed her outfit, so how did she manage to find her so precisely?
"Sister, stop pretending. I watched you sleep all night, how could I mistake you for someone else?"
"Besides, my sister smells so good, no one else does."
Su Ruanruan subconsciously raised her arm to smell her body, but couldn't smell anything.
She looked up and saw a smile on the other person's face.
"Are you lying to me?"
"No, how could I lie to my sister? You really do smell nice, you just can't smell it."
"Sister, you're sweating." As she spoke, she used her long, slender, fair fingers to hold a handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat from Su Ruanruan's forehead.
"Get away." Su Ruanruan pushed his hand away.
"My sister is so mean. She chose Xiaoyu, but then cruelly pushed her away."
He puffed out his cheeks, his peach blossom eyes filled with hurt.
Broken and lonely, just like an abandoned puppy.
Little puppy...
Su Ruanruan then remembered that Bai Ruan was still all alone in the room and was probably starving.
Su Ruanruan pursed her dry lips and stuffed the four copper coins she had just earned from selling tofu into his hand.
Pointing to the herbal tea shop in the distance.
"I'm thirsty, would you like to go buy me two bowls of herbal tea? It'll be my treat."
Xiaoyu's eyes sparkled, and her smile was as gentle as the spring breeze in February.
"Okay, wait for me, sister."
"Mm." Su Ruanruan watched his figure walk away, then grabbed her carrying pole and ran off in a flash.
When she returned, she saw Bai Ruan lounging in the yard, lazily basking in the sun.
There were still some scraps left in its food bowl.
Su Ruanruan patted her round, white belly; she was indeed full.
But when she returned, the door was already locked.
He's gone; she and Mu Bai ultimately missed their chance. (Remember this sentence.)
That night, a thunderclap suddenly rose from the ground.
Under the eaves, raindrops fell like beads from a broken string.
Su Ruanruan suddenly woke up and looked at the flash of lightning outside the window.
A series of thunderclaps, sometimes near, sometimes far, sounded in my ears like death knells.
Like a raging demon from hell, it swallowed up her last shred of clarity.
The oil lamp had long since burned out, plunging the room into darkness.
Su Ruanruan kept telling herself not to think about it, not to think about it.
But those fragmented memories in my mind gradually became clearer.
Amidst the flames and thunder, the blood on the ground, mingled with the rain, resembled a snake flicking its tongue, slowly sliding towards Su Ruanruan's feet.
The still-warm body lay on the cold ground.
In the flickering light, she saw those eyes that were not closed.
She will never forget the night her mother fell from the building.
It was like the fury of heaven and earth.
"ah……"
Su Ruanruan acted as if she were insane, tightly covering her ears.
The color drained from his face, and his hands trembled.
He closed his eyes tightly in pain, curled up in the corner, and remained motionless.
Bai Ruan didn't know what the deafening noise outside was, so she tucked her head into her body and closed her eyes.
The rain poured down, and streaks of lightning flashed like golden snakes through the darkness.
Thunder rumbled, wild winds howled, and rain poured down like drumbeats.
Several different sounds intertwined in the darkness, transforming into a giant hand that tightly gripped Su Ruanruan's neck.
She felt so suffocated that she could hardly breathe.
Outside the house, a figure was anxiously knocking on the door.
But there was no sign of movement from inside the house.
If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear a woman's sobbing.
Mu Bai's clothes were already soaked through by the heavy rain, and the wet clothes clung tightly to his thin body.
But pacing around anxiously was useless; the courtyard gate was already locked from the inside.
His own urgent cries were swallowed up by the noisy night.
He quickly wiped the rain off his face and looked up at the rather high wall.
I tried to use leverage to climb, but I fell down every time I tried.
His clothes were covered in mud, making him look extremely disheveled.
This is the first time in my life I've felt such a sense of powerlessness.
A scholar is truly useless in every way.
