Shen Zhiyi felt the wetness on his palm.
Let him go.
She took out her cell phone from her bag, turned on the flashlight, and waved it in front of him.
"Chi Wangye, I turned on the light."
She held him tightly, "I want to stick close to you and talk to me, okay?"
“It’s really a bit scary here.”
"Boss!" she suddenly yelled, "Can you turn off the music? I'm about to cry!"
The boss saw on the monitoring screen that something was wrong with Chi Wangye's condition, and quickly turned off the sound.
Shen Zhiyi pulled him.
In the dim light of the flashlight, he slowly walked towards the door.
Chi Wangye was stunned.
In the complete darkness, a faint, flickering light was seen.
All condensed in that slender figure.
She led him out of the dark tunnel.
The door at the end opened, letting in blinding, glaring sunlight.
He narrowed his eyes.
Look at her through your fingers.
Shen Zhiyi turned her head, her whole body enveloped in the golden light of the setting sun, and stood in front of him with a bright smile on her face.
"We're out!"
Chi Wangye's gaze slowly focused on the pearly teeth at the corner of her lips, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
His light.
It turns out to be so dazzling.
He held her hand, pulled her over, and hugged her tightly in his arms.
“Shen Xiaoyi…”
Several words rolled in his throat, but he didn't know what to say.
Just hold her tight.
Chi Wangye closed his eyes and buried his head in her neck, smelling her scent mingling with his own.
They are all her and her favorite marks.
He thought.
He was willing to do this and paint himself the color she liked from then on.
even.
Even if she gets herself dirty, it doesn't matter.
Shen Zhiyi took the opportunity to hug him and patted his back.
"You were scared too, weren't you?"
The crowd coming and going, countless eyes fell on them.
They didn't care at all.
Just holding each other and exchanging strength.
Shen Zhiyi glanced at a place not far away and patted Chi Wangye, "Look, there is a yellow wine shop over there."
"I heard that drinking yellow wine can drive away evil spirits."
She took Chi Wangye's hand, walked to the river bank, and pressed him down on the only empty bench.
"Wait here for me. I'll go buy a bottle of rice wine, and then we can go rowing together, okay?"
Chi Wangye raised his eyes.
Look at the small boat swaying on the river bank.
Nodded.
He looked at Shen Zhiyi in a daze as he ran away and stood in front of the rice wine shop, talking to the boss.
He looked weak.
The phone rang.
When Chi Wangye saw the caller ID, his expression, which had just relaxed a little, became tense again in an instant.
"Hello."
"What took you so long to answer?" A deep, middle-aged male voice came from the other side, scolding, "The nanny said you haven't been home for several months. Do you still think of me as your father?!"
Chi Wangye sneered.
"I haven't been home for a few months, and the nanny still needs to tell you."
"You're a pretty good father."
"Chi Wangye!" he roared, "You're not good at learning, you only know how to talk back to me?!"
"I'm busy at home, what about you? What are you doing?"
"If you don't study hard, you'll achieve nothing and spend your days like a playboy."
"I spent so much money on your schooling, and all you learned was swear words?"
"How could I have given birth to a son like you!"
The paleness on Chi Wangye's face had not yet faded. When he heard this, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Yeah, I have a life, but no one to support it."
"Growing up to be a waste, isn't it normal?"
There was a sudden silence on the other side.
Chi Wangye found it extremely boring.
He hung up the phone.
His eyes were empty as he looked at the silent river.
If he hadn't been so playful and hadn't come home so late, Mom wouldn't have died despite failed attempts to save her...
It's all his fault.
If only I had discovered earlier that she had taken so many sleeping pills...sent her to the hospital for a gastric lavage...
Maybe... she wouldn't have to die...
He stood up in a trance and walked towards the river.
The swaying river water under the setting sun intertwined a patchwork of mottled shadows, like a giant mouth with countless teeth, clamoring to swallow him up...
