Chapter 57: Bai Taotao's Dream (1)
Guan Haishan ran up the back mountain in one breath.
This was her first day in this desolate Ruyi Village. Apart from Bai Taotao's house, there was only this back mountain... She was a little familiar with it, after all, she had just been there in the afternoon.
She sobbed, hugged her knees and sat on the grass, thinking absentmindedly about her own thoughts.
Since when did Song Zhi...change?
Song Zhi is two years older than her. He has been with her since Guan Haishan could remember. She had a very happy childhood with Song Zhi and her brother Guan Hailong.
The good times didn't last long, her mother died of illness.
Ever since her father married a stepmother, her brother Guan Hailong and the stepmother's son Fang Shenghao have been at odds with each other, and the family has become chaotic.
Fortunately, she has Song Zhi.
Song Zhi treated her much better than her own brother.
He agreed to all her unreasonable conditions, pampered her and spoiled her, just like when her mother was still alive.
Once, Guan Haishan was angry with her stepmother and wanted to drag Song Zhi to lie on the railway tracks... She also threatened that if he didn't accompany her, she would go alone.
Song Zhi was silent for a long time and then accompanied her.
In the middle of the night, two little people lay side by side on the railroad tracks, feeling the trembling and vibration of the tracks as the train got closer and closer.
She heard Song Zhi's weak sobs.
Song Zhi's fear and pain made her feel inexplicably happy.
On the one hand, she looked down on Song Zhi's weakness, and imagined that if the person lying next to her was not Song Zhi but her stepmother or her stepmother's children, would they also cry out of fear? On the one hand, because of Song Zhi's company, she was no longer afraid of death.
The train came rushing towards us with a roar.
Guan Haishan was filled with the joy of revenge on her stepmother - she had left a suicide note to her father, stating that she and Song Zhi were forced to death by her stepmother!
Imagine that my father doted on my stepmother, but one day, he learned that his own daughter was killed by the woman he loved, and the neighbors were pointing fingers at him...
Haha, can he continue to pamper that woman, the son that woman brought with her, and the daughter that was born later?
Guan Haishan was excited and determined to enjoy the impending death.
At the critical moment, Song Zhi rolled her down the gravel road.
The sharp gravel scratched their bodies, leaving scars all over and blood all over...
Guan Haishan woke up.
The relief and joy of surviving the disaster made her hug Song Zhi and cry. All the fear, grievance, anger and hatred seemed to disappear, and she finally became happy.
However, Song Zhi's body was very stiff.
It was around that time that Song Zhi began to distance himself from her.
He studied very hard. When he was in the second or third grade, he would go to the Workers' Library to read books after school every day. He would not come back until the library closed at 10:30 at night... by that time, Guan Haishan had already gone to bed.
He ate a few mouthfuls of leftovers and found a place in Guan's living room to stay overnight.
The next morning, Song Zhi got up at 5:30, went to the kitchen in the dark, cooked some leftovers, and went out before dawn, running in the park while reciting his lessons, and went straight to school at 8 o'clock.
At that time, Guan Haishan didn't know that Song Zhi was avoiding her. She just thought that he wanted to study hard, make a name for himself, and then piss off his stepmother and Fang Shenghao.
Guan Haishan was still very happy to see this situation, so she didn't beat Song Zhi on weekdays. She only took Song Zhi to experience various near-death experiences again when Song Zhi came home during the holidays.
Drowning, hanging, jumping off a cliff...
She dragged Song Zhi along to try them all.
——Every time she did this, she wrote a suicide note saying that she was forced to death by her stepmother. She also mentioned in her suicide note that Song Zhi was also killed by her stepmother. Song Zhi is not Guan Qingbai's child. If Song Zhi died, Guan Qingbai would not be able to explain to Song Zhi's father.
This is also the reason why Guan Haishan always drags Song Zhi into suicide together.
But every time she tried to commit suicide, she would be saved by Song Zhi at the last critical moment.
As I get older...
She underwent subtle emotional changes towards Song Zhi.
Song Zhi always became the hero who saved her from dire straits and the beautiful lady who came to marry her on a colorful cloud.
These near-death experiences and Song Zhi's redemption relieved the depression in her heart and allowed her to completely let go.
Song Zhi became more and more silent.
Oh, yes, it seemed... he seemed to have told her many times that he didn't want to die, and he didn't like experiencing these perverted feelings.
How did she say that?
like--
This is what she said, "Brother, so you... hope that I will die alone and quietly? It doesn't matter, you don't have to worry about me, I can be with mom after I die. Mom will feel sorry for me, will take good care of me, and will care whether I am happy or not..."
She was very smart and knew that Song Zhi would not be able to refuse whenever she brought up her deceased mother.
As time went by, Song Zhi became more and more silent, and lifeless all day long; and Guan Haishan seemed to have gotten used to Song Zhi's silence - after all, he was always within her reach, and he would always make her wish come true.
Until today, Song Zhi told her in person that he fell in love with another girl? Did he want to get rid of her completely?
Guan Haishan closed her eyes.
--No! She would never accept it!
Song Zhi belongs to her, it always has, it always has, and it always will!
As the sky darkened, the temperature in the mountains became colder.
Guan Haishan thought about what she should do next.
She thought the easiest way was to find Bai Taotao directly and ask her to leave Song Zhi.
But the problem is, Ruyi Village is Bai Taotao's home, she can't possibly leave Song Zhi; and now Song Zhi is living in Bai Taotao's home, so it's too unrealistic to ask Bai Taotao to leave.
Then, letting Song Zhi return to the city is also a good idea, so that he and Bai Taotao can naturally separate.
But the problem was that she had no way to arrange for Song Zhi to return to the city - her brother had to fight with Fang Shenghao and deliberately break his leg to force Fang Shenghao to exchange his place in the city.
What can she do?
The weather was getting colder and colder. Guan Haishan stroked her arms and looked at the woods shrouded in twilight...
A thought occurred to her:
Song Zhi, you want to get rid of me, right?
Then I will die in front of you...
If I die, can you still like another woman with peace of mind? If I die, I will become a guilt that you will never be able to forgive yourself for the rest of your life!
Guan Haishan stood up, suppressed the fear in his heart, and walked towards the depths of the jungle.
But Taotao's family ate dinner absentmindedly...
The braised pork with chestnuts is of course delicious, but it is still worrying that Kwan Hoi-shan ran away like this.
Tang Liren: "This child Haishan is still quite willful!"
Bai Zhenggan said, "Song Zhi, this is not a joke, let's go find her!"
Tan Fenghui, "Yes, there are not only wild animals in the back mountain, but also traps set by hunters. It's not fun to fall into a trap!"
Liu Xuexu, "How about I go look for her! After all, she and I came out together. If anything happens to her, I can't tell Uncle Guan..."
Bai Xingxing, "If you want to go, go after dinner. Is it easy for others to cook?"
Song Zhi's face turned pale, "No! We can't spoil her."
Everyone looked at each other.
He ate a few mouthfuls of food without any taste in his mouth, then looked at Taotao.
Taotao also looked at him curiously.
Song Zhi suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks and grabbed Taotao's hand.
There were thin calluses on her palms, and her fingers were slender, soft and warm. He clenched them tightly, which seemed to give him... the courage to recall the past.
Song Zhi decided to tell the Bai family about his childhood.
He spoke slowly—
Kwan Hoi Shan had a very contradictory personality. On the one hand, she was very aloof and always looked like she didn't care about losing anything in front of others, and she couldn't say no. On the other hand, she was very keen on punishing others by hurting herself.
This resulted in her agreeing to whatever her stepmother said to her. But then she turned around and secretly hated her stepmother's partiality and oppression...
Her arrogance prevented her from complaining to her father, so her way of resisting was to hurt herself and make those who loved her sad.
This tendency was already evident when she was very young.
For the first time, Guan Haishan dragged Song Zhi to lie on the railway tracks.
At that time, Song Zhi was still very young, only eight or nine years old. He could also see that Guan Haishan's stepmother was indeed quite partial, and Guan Haishan was unhappy all day long. Song Zhi tried to imitate his adoptive mother Jiang Qin in treating Guan Haishan, and tried to persuade her when she showed signs of world-weariness.
Unexpectedly, she threatened him with death and forced him to lie on the railway tracks with her.
At the critical moment, Song Zhi pulled her out of danger, but he also began to think about retreating.
But Guan Haishan seemed to fall in love with this kind of game.
The second time, she dragged Song Zhi to jump off the building. The two climbed to the tallest building nearby. On the roof of the sixth floor, she drew a hopscotch pattern on the narrow concrete guardrail wall with chalk, then covered her eyes with a handkerchief, climbed up, and played hopscotch on it...
It was Song Zhi who grabbed her.
He wanted to pull her up, but she wanted to fall down with him!
In the end, Song Zhi got so angry that he pulled her back and saved himself.
The third time, she found a knife and two tin buckets, filled the buckets with water, made Song Zhi and her sit in one bucket, and then cut their wrists.
Song Zhi couldn't do anything...
It was Guan Haishan. She took the knife and slashed Song Zhi's wrist deeply without hesitation, and then slashed her own wrist fiercely.
Fortunately, because she was young, Kwan Hoi-shan didn’t know where the wrist artery was, so although the wound was deep, it was not fatal.
It was Song Zhi who climbed out of the tin bucket with his bloody hands raised, and stumbled to ask adults for help...
Having said that, Song Zhi loosened his grip on Taotao's hand, unbuttoned his shirt on his right wrist, rolled up his sleeves, and placed his hands on the table.
Everyone clearly saw a slanted, shocking scar on his right wrist.
Tang Liren felt distressed all of a sudden. She reached out and gently touched the scar on Song Zhi's wrist and asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Tan Fenghui also said softly: "It's been so many years and the scar is still so obvious... I guess the wound must have been very deep back then, right?"
Song Zhi's eyes turned red.
He remained silent for a long time.
Taotao took the initiative to hold his hand.
Song Zhi looked at Taotao.
Taotao's hands seemed weak and powerless because they were too slender. But her hands continued to radiate warmth, which slowly warmed his hands and seemed to flow along his arms straight into his heart.
He sobbed softly, "I was so scared at the time, and I felt... so painful. But I didn't have a mother, and my father didn't care about me. I didn't know who to talk to... I didn't even dare to cry because I was a boy..."
Tang Liren couldn't hold back her tears, "Poor kid! Song Zhi, if you are wronged in the future, just tell me and I will take care of it for you, okay?"
——Song Zhi had seen with his own eyes how protective Tang Liren was of her cub.
He envied the Bai family's children more than once. How lucky they were to have such a hardworking and fierce mother!
Now, Tang Liren treated him completely like a mother...
Song Zhi's heart suddenly collapsed and tears rushed out of his eyes, but he tried hard to hold them back.
He gritted his teeth and nodded, wanting to force a smile at Tang Liren, but he couldn't smile no matter what...
Tang Liren felt even more distressed, "Don't cry! You have already gone through all the hard times, and only good days are left in the future!"
Bai Zhenggan thought for a while and whispered, "I didn't expect this little girl to be so famous despite her young age... It seems like we really can't spoil her too much!"
Liu Xuexu was extremely shocked!
He looked at Song Zhi's painful expression and murmured, "Brother Song Zhi, it turns out that you... I, we all thought that you liked Hai Shan and had liked her silently for many years, but it turns out that you..."
Song Zhi, "I wish I could stay away from her and never have any contact with her again in this life."
Bai Zhenggan pondered for a long time and made a decision, "That's true, but we can't let a city girl run into the forest alone in the middle of the night. After all, she doesn't know how scary the forest is at night! Let's eat quickly, and then go find her after dinner... Then Song Zhi and Xiao Liu, you two send Guan Haishan back to Kyoto!"
"I will write a letter in the name of the Party Secretary of Ruyi Village. You two can give it to her father. If Guan Haishan's father still ignores Guan Haishan..."
"Although I am an ordinary citizen, I also protected some comrades before liberation. Now many of those comrades have the qualification to provide internal references. If Guan Qingbai still does not discipline or restrain his daughter, don't blame me!"
Everyone was silent.
Everyone lowered their heads and ate.
Taotao also held her bowl and ate slowly, but she was secretly communicating with Xiaopuo.
Taotao, [Little Grape, can you help me find where Guan Haishan has gone? 】
Little Grape, [Taotao, are you talking about the bald guy who broke into the back mountain? 】
Taotao, [Yeah, it’s her! 】
Little Grape, [She is walking deep into the jungle. 】
Taotao, [Little Grape, are there any wild animals nearby? 】
Little Grape, [No, no, the rain is good this year, and the forest has a good harvest. Berries and various wild fruits are growing well, feeding many herbivores. There is also enough food for carnivores, so they have no time to come to the village to make trouble! 】
Taotao breathed a sigh of relief.
After thinking for a while, she asked Little Grape again, "Little Grape, are there any plants in the jungle that can cause hallucinations?" 】
This time, Little Grape took a long time to answer, "Taotao, I can't answer this question for you. I just asked an old man, and he said that there are plants that can cause hallucinations, such as poisonous mushrooms and marijuana, but these are poisonous to humans and may even kill people. 】
Taotao was startled, [No, no, no, I just hope that Guan Haishan can have a few dreams. And, can I control her dreams? I don’t want her to die.]
After a long while, Little Grape finally answered, "Taotao, grandpa said that there is a dead forest to the east of the dense forest, where a large area of trees once died. The smell of decaying trees can put people into a coma. You can lead the bald girl there, but don't let her go deep into it, otherwise she might die from inhaling too much toxic smell! 】
Taotao quickly asked again, "Does she dream?" 】
Little Grape, [The old man said that the bald girl will definitely have a dream. Anyone who passes out near the poisonous forest, whether a human or an animal, will have dreams, and the chances are high that they will be nightmares. However, we plants cannot control her dreams. This mainly depends on her. She will probably dream about what she fears the most. 】
Taotao, [Little Grape, I would like to trouble Grandpa, can you find a way to lead Guan Haishan to the poisonous forest? But I have to pay attention to her safety and don't let her go too deep. I want to find an opportunity to guide her to dream. 】
Little Grape replied, "Taotao, I have already told the old man, and he said it was no problem because the bald girl was heading in that direction anyway. 】
Taotao understood, "Little Grape, thank you!" Please thank grandpa for me too! I will go find her later, and I'll need you to lead the way for me! 】
Little Grape, [Okay Taotao, I like you so much hehehe. 】
Taotao's family finished their meal in silence.
Xingxing quickly cleaned up the dishes, and Taotao ran out of the yard and yelled at her second uncle's family at the foot of the mountain...
Then Bai Zhenggan was left at home to look after the three grandsons, and Hu Zi was also left at home; everyone else put on thick clothes, took handy tools, some took flashlights, some took torches, and took the other dog, and went out together.
When they were at the intersection, the family waited for their second uncle's family.
The second uncle's family found out the situation and then formed a team with the eldest uncle's family.
The big brother and his wife who supported the army were in one team; Aimin and Xingxing were in one team; Tang Liren and Tan Fenghui were in one team; the second uncle and sister Caixia were in one team; Song Zhi and Taotao and Liu Xuexu were in one team...
The five teams went up the mountain together, and then went their separate ways.
Taotao received instructions from the old man and led Song Zhi and Liu Xuexu slowly towards the poisonous forest.
Along the way, Tao Tao didn't say a word, but Liu Xuexu kept talking to Song Zhi -
Liu Xuexu, "Brother Song Zhi, do you really... dislike Hai Shan?"
Song Zhi said nothing, his face full of anger.
Liu Xuexu, "But Haishan has always said that you will marry her... Actually, it's not that no one has pursued her, but she rejected them all, saying that she would only accept you, and always said that you two would get married soon..."
Song Zhi couldn't help but counter-attack, "What about you? You are willing to travel a long distance to accompany her across half the country to come here, and you have been wandering for more than a month... You like her too, right?"
Liu Xuexu, "No, I had a fight with my mom. I was just trying to piss her off, and I knew Haishan was going on a long trip, so I followed her here!"
Song Zhi glanced at Tao Tao and said to Liu Xuexu, "So you've been eating and living with her all this time, so you're not interested in her?"
Liu Xuexu was anxious, "I, I didn't!"
Song Zhi said in a warning tone: "What attitude Guan Haishan has towards me is up to her. Anyway, I don't have a positive evaluation of her. You can't make random guesses about my attitude just because of her attitude."
"It's just like your attitude towards Guan Haishan, which depends on your performance. I don't really care whether you and her are in love, but your performance does make me think that you like her, otherwise you wouldn't travel thousands of miles for her. But I respect your attitude. Since you didn't say in person that you like her, I won't think so either."
Liu Xuexu: ...
He said dejectedly: "Brother Song Zhi, I understand... I'm sorry, I will never say this again."
Taotao looked at Song Zhi again.
——But you don’t say that in front of me!
Song Zhi avoided Taotao's gaze.
He thought to himself: Fortunately it is dark, Taotao should not be able to see his blushing.
Taotao led Song Zhi and Liu Xuexu, and under the guidance of the old man, they finally approached the poisonous forest.
Song Zhi grabbed her and said, "You can't go any further."
Taotao was stunned.
In fact, Song Zhi didn't know the forest, but his subconscious told him that it was very dangerous.
At this time, Taotao heard the old man's voice, "Taotao, you have arrived near the poisonous forest. The bald girl has fainted. She is only thirty steps away from you. Within this range, she would be fine. She will wake up at dawn tomorrow. 】
Taotao, [Thank you, grandpa! 】
The old man gave a lot of instructions, "Taotao, don't go any further inside!" 】
Taotao thanked the old man again——
At this time, Song Zhi held her hand and wanted to take her away from there.
Of course Taotao didn't want to!
She pretended to drag two steps, was pulled by Song Zhi and staggered, and then faked a fall -
Uh, Taotao didn't fall to the ground.
Because Song Zhi held her slender waist tightly? !
Tao Tao suddenly had an idea and cried, "Song Zhi, I sprained my ankle... It hurts so much."
The girl's gentle resentment made Song Zhi's heart burn with anger.
He simply handed the flashlight to Liu Xuexu, then picked up Taotao horizontally.
Tao Tao said aggrievedly, "Let's go to the side and rest for a while before we go, okay?"
Song Zhi couldn't refuse at all, "Okay!"
So he held Taotao, found a relatively flat ground, then knelt on one knee and carefully placed Taotao on the ground.
Liu Xuexu: Woohoo, I also want to hug Taotao like Brother Song Zhi!
Song Zhi also wanted to take off Taotao's shoes and socks and check her injuries.
Taotao hid it desperately - are you kidding! She wasn't hurt at all!
"Why do you want to look at my feet? I haven't washed my feet today! Besides, it's not a big deal for me. I just need to rest for a while." Taotao got angry.
Song Zhi had no choice but to give up.
So, all three of them sat on the ground.
Following the guidance of the spiritual plants nearby, Taotao soon found Guan Haishan lying in the grass not far away. She concentrated and thought carefully, trying hard to inject her spiritual power into Guan Haishan who was thirty or forty meters away.
——The Mei Sect has a skill called Xiangnu Dream, which is the secret of the Mei Sect that is not passed on.
To put it simply, when a disciple of the Mei Sect takes a fancy to a new cauldron but cannot seduce or defeat the opponent, he can use this trick on the opponent.
To put it more simply, the disciples of Mei Sect can weave a spring dream for the other party.
There is no other use for it. I can only let the cauldron fight with me for hundreds of rounds in my dream...I will wait until the person wakes up and then use the charm technique. The other party will have a preconceived idea that what they think about during the day will come to their dreams at night, and they will eventually achieve twice the result with half the effort and can be easily captured.
Of course Taotao also knows this skill, but she had only practiced it with her fellow sisters before. This was the first time she had used it on a mortal, so she didn’t know if it would work.
Because this technique requires a lot of spiritual power, Taotao did not dare to leave Song Zhi, so she leaned her head on Song Zhi's shoulder and absorbed the spiritual energy from him.
In a moment, Taotao's spiritual power accurately detected Guan Haishan and invaded Guan Haishan's dream.
Just as the old man said, Guan Haishan really started having nightmares.
Guan Haishan’s dream was very dark.
The dim environment, the brother with a miserable expression, the young boy Fang Shenghao standing aside and watching the show with a sneer, the father with a blurred face, the stepmother with a sinister expression and a malicious smile on her lips, and the stepsister who looks innocent and cute but is actually full of evil intentions...
Only the young boy Song Zhi is the only bright spot in Guan Haishan’s nightmare.
He was wearing a white shirt and blue pants, with a bright red scarf tied around his chest. He had bright eyes and a clean smile.
The scene changed, and Guan Haishan pulled Song Zhi up to the rooftop of a tall building, then took out a piece of chalk and drew a few lines on the concrete guardrail. Then he said with a smile: "Brother, we will play hopscotch here later, and you have to cover your eyes!"
Song Zhi, "Hai Shan, let's not do this... It's very dangerous, we will die if we fall down!"
Kwan Hoi-Shan, "It's okay, brother. Death is not scary."
Song Zhi, "No, death is terrible, I don't want to die!"
Guan Haishan, "You are not afraid of death! You are the same as me... We both lost our mothers, and only our fathers are left. But our fathers don't care whether we live or die... So brother, don't be afraid. If we fall... they will regret not cherishing us."
Song Zhi, "When a person dies, everything is gone..."
Guan Haishan, "Song Zhi, if my mother knew that you have been with me all the time, she would be very happy! You also know that my mother loves you very much. She loves you, even more than me and my brother..."
Song Zhi was silent.
Bai Taotao frowned, and then watched Guan Haishan take out a handkerchief and cover Song Zhi's eyes, then led Song Zhi to the cement platform and said, "Brother, you climb up now and... hopscotch under my command. Don't be afraid, if you fall, I will jump down with you."
Song Zhi, with his eyes blindfolded, hugged the concrete platform and did not move for a long time.
Guan Haishan, "Brother, hurry up!"
Song Zhi, "Hai Shan, let's go home!"
"We have no home anymore," Guan Haishan said, "...When we die, our mother will come to pick us up. Our mother loves us very much. Don't you remember?"
Song Zhi shook his head desperately.
Bai Taotao couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and ripped off the handkerchief covering Song Zhi's eyes, and shouted at him, "Run! Run as far as you can! Stay away from her from now on... Never get close to her, don't associate with her, run!"
The young boy Song Zhi held the handkerchief that was torn off by Bai Taotao, and looked in shock at the fairy who appeared in the air, wearing ancient costume and white gauze.
"Hurry—run!" Taotao shouted loudly.
The young boy Song Zhi turned around and ran!
Guan Haishan could not see Bai Taotao's existence, but was very surprised by Song Zhi's escape. She screamed, "Song Zhi, you coward! You coward! Why are you running away? My mother will punish you! Her spirit in heaven will definitely punish you!"
Taotao frowned as she sensed Guan Haishan's dream.
She took two deep breaths and returned to the real world.
Song Zhi was stroking Taotao's head again and again as if he was coaxing a child to sleep.
Tao Tao felt very comfortable and couldn't help asking Song Zhi, "Song Zhi, Guan Haishan has always wanted to commit suicide since she was so young. Is she sick?"
Song Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe."
"My adoptive mother was a very gentle and kind woman, but her personality... was a little hard to describe. Her aesthetic was very strange. She liked everything that represented bleakness, decline, impending death or death. I remember that she put a pink hairless mouse that died just after birth into a glass bottle, tied a beautiful ribbon around the mouth of the bottle, and placed it in the room as a decoration... In addition, there were macaque skulls, snake feces, and deliberately broken snail shells. She treated them all as treasures."
"When I was a child, my aesthetic sense was also distorted. I really thought that kind of things were beautiful. Later...it was only after society corrected me that I realized that the things that made me feel uncomfortable were not beautiful. It turns out that my aesthetic sense is no different from that of ordinary people...but this cognitive process is very painful. I was simply regarded as a monster..."
"Actually, I've always felt that my adoptive mother might have some mental problems... and it seems that Guan Haishan's extremism seems to be inherited a little from her mother. That's why I have always tolerated her in the past." Song Zhi said truthfully.
Tao Tao thought for a moment, and then asked Song Zhi, "Can you help me think about the best or worst scenario for Guan Haishan in the future? Let's talk about the worst scenario first. She is so obsessed with using her own death to punish others... If she dies, will her father really be sad? Will he really feel guilty?"
Taotao wants to weave dreams for Guan Haishan and deduce her life for her, so that she can see whether her death is worth it.
But Taotao doesn't know much about Kwan Hoi-Shan's family and her growing environment.
Song Zhi, "Even before Guan Haishan's mother died, her relationship with her father had already broken down. Her father had never taken care of her and Guan Hailong since they were young, and he really lacked attention to them. But over the past decade or so, they have caused a lot of trouble, and I feel like her father has also been... enduring it."
"If Guan Haishan really died, I'm afraid her father would feel relieved. I don't think he would feel guilty. That was always Guan Haishan's wishful thinking."
Liu Xuexu couldn't help but say, "And everyone in our compound thinks that Haishan is actually quite pathetic... In fact, she is very talented in art, but she just can't calm down and create well, and has always lived in hatred... My mother has said many times that Haishan's paintings are the most spiritual among our young generation, but it's a pity that every time she paints, she always ends up with a mess, probably because she is disturbed by the trivialities of life..."
Taotao had an idea.
She began to weave dreams for Guan Haishan.
Not far away, Guan Haishan, who was lying in the grass and fell asleep, began to breathe rapidly.
——Guan Haishan dreamed that she was inexplicably standing on the top of a snow-capped mountain. She looked at the magnificent sky, the majestic snow-capped mountains, and felt the biting breath of ice and snow. She was extremely shocked and wondered how there could be such a beautiful scenery in the world? !
At this moment, she wished she could take out a pen and paper and paint all these beautiful scenes.
However, she shouted, "I will make all of you regret it! Dad! You will definitely regret that you didn't treat me well! Song Zhi, you will definitely regret it too! Brother! Brother, you will definitely regret it too..."
After saying that, she jumped up -
Kwan Hoi-Shan shouted in her heart: No! No no no! I don't want to die! This place is so beautiful that I want to paint this scenery...
She fell heavily into the snow and lost consciousness.
When she opened her eyes again, Guan Haishan found herself in a mourning hall? !
Funeral music resounded in the mourning hall. A circle of flowers was placed around the coffin in the middle, and fruits were offered on the table. Next to the fruit plate, there was a black-and-white photo of Kwan Hoi-shan? ? ?
Guan Haishan was stunned.
She, dead?
A group of relatives and friends wearing plain clothes and black veils on their arms were filing in from outside. They lined up, walked around the coffin, then bowed to the coffin under the arrangement of the master of ceremonies, and finally lined up to leave the mourning hall.
Guan Haishan was stunned.
She heard the conversation between her father, stepmother and stepsister——
Stepsister, "This annoying person is finally dead! Fortunately, she kept her promise and committed suicide! From now on, the world is finally at peace!"
Stepmother, "Hei Fu! I don't allow you to say that about your sister!"
Father, "Okay, okay, Haifu is still young, why are you yelling at her? By the way, Haifu, are you ready for the competition?"
Stepsister, "Not ready! Unless... my parents are here! When I'm performing on stage, I can only perform well if I see my parents are here! Otherwise, I will definitely not perform well!"
Stepmother, "Oh, you kid, your dad is busy at work, I can go!"
Father, "It's okay, this is the most important game for Haifu, I will definitely be there!"
Stepsister, "Really? Thank you, Daddy! I love you, Daddy! I love you, Mommy!"
Stepmother, "You have no real ability, but you are sweet-talking! It's already too late to go home and cook..."
Father, "Let's go out to eat. Let's go to a restaurant! Hei Fu is going to participate in the competition soon, let her eat something good..."
The family of three walked away laughing.
Guan Haishan suddenly opened her eyes wide.
——How could that be? She's already dead, and her father... doesn't care at all? Where was the scene she wanted to see, where her father cried bitterly while holding her portrait, accusing her stepmother of mistreating her, and immediately divorcing her stepmother, asking her stepmother to get out with her stepsister? ? ?
At this time, Guan Hailong and Song Zhi were also walking towards the door while talking.
Guan Hailong, "What are your plans?"
Song Zhi, "I will arrange the wedding first... Before, I always had to take Haishan's feelings into consideration, and I have delayed her for many years. Now I have no worries. I will make up for the wedding first, and then slowly compensate her later... What about you?"
