Looking at the water deliveryman Wang Linhua in front of him, Mu Yu was once again filled with an emotion called fear.
"Miss, how much did you spend to replace the screen of your mobile phone?" Wang Linhua did not see through her inner fear, but stared at her mobile phone anxiously.
"I didn't change the screen." Mu Yu turned around and wanted to leave.
"Miss!" Wang Linhua stopped her in a hurry and said hurriedly, "Although I am very poor, I can definitely afford a mobile phone screen."
"Hey!" The sudden close contact made Mu Yu more and more panicked, and he instinctively took three or four steps back.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Wang Linhua realized that he was rude, and quickly retracted his hand and apologized repeatedly, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to compensate you for the screen of your phone. After all, I broke it."
When she didn't respond, he thought for a while and said, "Since you don't tell me, I'll go to the store and ask the boss myself." After that, he quickly entered the small store on the side.
Only then did Mu Yu notice that there was a mobile phone store next to the public toilet, and the place where he was standing was the main entrance of the mobile phone store.
Looking at Wang Linhua's slightly hunched back, his honest and friendly face flashed before her eyes, and then thinking about Rong Jian's evaluation of him, she somehow doubted her previous feelings, even though he looked very much like the man who made her A man who has nightmares, but he obviously doesn't have the violence of a murderer.
Is it just that they look alike? After all, the world is such a big place, it’s not surprising that some people look alike.
correct! That man has a mole under his eye!
Today, because she was too frightened, she didn't dare to take a closer look at Wang Linhua's face after she recognized that Wang Linhua was the man back then at first glance, and didn't even pay attention to whether he had that feature on his face.
"Miss… "
Shocked to see Wang Linhua running out of the store, Mu Yu suddenly put away her thoughts, forced herself to stay calm, and looked at him nervously.
"The boss said that the screen of your model can be replaced with a new one for five hundred yuan." When Wang Linhua said this, he scratched his head in embarrassment, "But I don't have any cash with me. I will withdraw the money and go to Qingtian tomorrow. Can the group contact you? Which department do you work in?”
He thought Mu Yu was an employee of Qingtian Group.
There are no tear stains on his face!
No!
Sure enough, they are just people who look alike!
Mu Yu, who was secretly happy, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss? Is that okay?" Wang Linhua's wrinkled face was filled with anxiety and embarrassment.
"Uh, um, there's no need to compensate, you really don't need to compensate." Mu Yu, who changed her mood, waved her hands repeatedly.
"That's not okay! I will feel bad about it! If you don't tell me which department you are in, I will go to your company tomorrow to find out." Wang Linhua's eyes were firm and he looked like he had to apologize.
Looking at Wang Linhua who was still wearing patched old clothes, Mu Yu was very moved and did not refuse. Then he made an excuse and said: "My cousin runs a mobile phone store. He said that it only costs two hundred yuan to replace the screen of my mobile phone." , I was planning to go find him.”
"Two hundred yuan?" Wang Linhua's eyes lit up and he quickly put his hand into his pocket, but then froze and asked with an uneasy look on his face, "Is two hundred yuan enough?"
"That's enough! My cousin said this business is very profitable." Mu Yu actually didn't understand the market, but she guessed that Wang Linhua didn't understand the market either, so she tried to sound very positive.
"That's good." Wang Linhua took out a wallet from his pocket.
The wallet was very worn. There was no red ticket in the middle of the wallet, but only zero tickets. There was even a family photo on the outside. I don’t know if the photo was just taken and washed, or if it was molded, but the color looks quite bright.
Seeing Mu Yu looking at his wallet, he seemed a little shy. He immediately turned sideways to avoid her sight, counted out two hundred yuan in change, took out the change, closed the wallet, turned around, and held it between his index finger and little finger. He held his wallet and counted the money in his hand again. After making sure it was two hundred, he handed it to her apologetically.
"Sorry, it's all change."
"It's okay."
Seeing Mu Yu take it and stuff it into his pocket, he added uneasily: "You can count."
"No, I believe you."
Wang Linhua was stunned for a while, then smiled honestly: "Thank you."
"I am the one who should say thank you. I can get a new phone screen soon." At this time, Mu Yu's mood had calmed down, and he pointed to his pocket with money with a smile.
Wang Linhua had put away his old wallet, smiled at her again, walked to the side of the road, got on his water delivery tricycle and left.
Mu Yu looked at his retreating figure and felt quite emotional.
Zhao Yongli, who was hired by the Qingtian Group with a high salary, did not hesitate to scheme against others for his own personal gain. However, Wang Linhua, who received a meager salary, could insist on paying for her mobile phone screen even though she had no money. It was not easy.
The family photo in the old wallet that she had not yet seen clearly flashed before her eyes, and she silently blessed this man who was poor in material but extremely rich in spirit.
At this time, an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she immediately took out her mobile phone to call Wen Zeyu. After hanging up the phone on Wen Zeyu, she wanted to call Rong Jian again, but her stomach growled again, so she had to run into the public toilet again.
When she came out again, the wind was blowing outside, and the sky suddenly darkened, accompanied by lightning and thunder. This abnormal weather made her feel uneasy. She immediately gave up the idea of calling Rong Jian and hurried to hail a taxi. .
As soon as she got into the taxi, her cell phone rang. Seeing that it was Xin Yihan's call, she was surprised and a little nervous, so she hurriedly answered the call.
You must know that since Xin Yihan got married, it was rare to call her unless something happened.
"Brother Yihan?"
"Xiaoyu? Where are you?"
"I'm on my way home. Brother Yihan, are you okay?" She asked cautiously, praying in her heart that he was safe and sound.
"Mr. Qin will send you back?"
"No, he... uh, he's at work. Brother Yihan, is something okay?"
"It's okay, I saw thunder outside, so I called you."
One sentence moved Mu Yu deeply - only her brother Yihan remembered that she was afraid of thunder.
Holding back her sadness, she forced a smile and responded softly: "Brother Yihan, I'm fine, I'll be home soon."
"Go home and have a good rest. If you need anything, call me."
"Yeah, I know."
"Okay, then, I'm going to get busy."
"Okay, Brother Yihan." After hanging up the phone, Mu Yu tried not to look at the lightning outside the window and leaned back softly on the chair with her eyes closed.
However, before she had closed her eyes for two minutes, she was shocked to sit up suddenly by a sound of thunder, which also awakened her memories that she had deliberately sealed away.
It was an evening ten years ago that she hated to remember.
At that time, she and her parents lived in Pingcheng, which was thousands of miles away from Anseong (the reason why she had been claiming to the public that she had been living in Anseong since she left her hometown with her parents when she was two years old was actually because she did not want people to ask why she left Pingseong, because she was afraid of that. segment memory). It was raining that day, so she had dinner as usual, picked up a garbage bag and held an umbrella to throw away garbage at a garbage transfer station not far from home. From a distance, she saw a couple arguing in front of the garbage station. The eleven-year-old didn't think much about it and walked over to throw away the garbage. Unexpectedly, when she approached the garbage transfer station, the man suddenly raised his knife and chopped off the woman's head. The head with eyes still open and stained with blood rolled straight to her feet. She was instantly frightened and frightened. She instinctively raised her eyes to look forward, when a flash of lightning lit up, suddenly illuminating the man's face, and carving the man's face into her mind like a stone statue. With a thunderclap, she fainted and fell to the ground. When she woke up again, she was already lying in the hospital.
From then on, she closed herself off, not daring to go out even half a step or to contact strangers. Whenever there was thunder or rain, she was so scared that she had nowhere to hide. Her parents felt distressed and blamed themselves. In order to alleviate her symptoms, they followed the doctor's advice and moved her to Ancheng.
After a change of environment and counseling from a psychiatrist, her condition improved slightly, but she still did not dare to go out and approach strangers. As a result, she could not even go to school. Her parents had to let her drop out of school and stay at home. During those four years, she hardly left home and stayed at home with books every day. This situation did not change until she met Xin Yihan and moved to live next door to her house six years ago.
Xin Yihan's smiling face flashed before her eyes, and her clenched heart finally found some comfort, and a slight smile spread on her lips involuntarily.
Still remembering the first time she saw him.
He knocked on her door just a few days after moving in. Her parents had gone to work, and she didn't dare to open the door. She stood inside the door in fear, praying that he would stop knocking.
"I know you're at home. I'm your next-door neighbor. I'm here to borrow a vise for urgent use. I must help. Please, please."
She didn't know whether it was his eager voice that moved her, or whether she had long wanted to try to communicate with strangers. In short, like a strange coincidence that day, she mustered up the courage to open the door and throw the vise to him.
After that time, he often came to knock on her door, sometimes to borrow things, sometimes to return things. Every time he came to her house, he took the initiative to talk to her. In addition, her parents always spoke well of him in front of her. Slowly, she began to try to communicate with him, and finally became good friends with him, who was eight years older than her. With his help, she finally walked out bravely. He left home, entered school, and reintegrated into the social family.
"Did you do it on purpose that day? You hit my foot with a vise without even looking at it. Fortunately, I am agile, otherwise I would have been crushed by you." After getting to know him, he always took this matter to heart. Make fun of her.
The wonderful time spent with Xin Yihan made her smile involuntarily.
After all, she is the most relaxed and happy when she is with Brother Yihan.
Sadly, those days are gone.
well…
"Miss, we're here."
After hearing the driver's reminder, Mu Yu realized that the car had arrived at the entrance of Shengshi Huating. After paying the fare, she got out of the car in a not-so-good mood. She didn't call anyone to pick her up, and walked slowly in the rain. Walk to Qin Jinhuan's home.
She felt that being colder would help her think more clearly.
"Oh, young lady, you didn't bring an umbrella, why didn't you ask us to pick you up? What if you have gonorrhea?"
As soon as she entered the house, Li Xianglan screamed. Her scream alarmed Qin Xiaozhi. When Qin Xiaozhi saw her embarrassment, he became very angry and asked, "What's going on? Ah Huan won't send you back? You brat!" If he doesn’t send you back, won’t you call me?”
"Grandpa, it's none of Ah Huan's business. I didn't call him. I'm going back to my room first."
"Go quickly, go quickly, change the wet clothes first." Qin Xiaozhi immediately looked at Li Xianglan and ordered, "Alan, go quickly and make ginger tea for young mistress to keep the cold away, but don't catch a cold."
"Grandpa, I'm fine." Mu Yu felt his head was a little heavy and was too lazy to say anything, so he went straight back to his room.
After changing out of her wet clothes and wiping her face, she felt her head getting heavier and heavier. She quickly poured herself a cup of hot tea and then lay down on the bed to rest.
Although the curtains were tightly closed, roaring thunder could be heard from time to time. She finally couldn't suppress the panic in her heart and wrapped herself deeply in the quilt. Her mood became more and more irritable and her head became more and more dizzy. Lying on the bed and tossing and turning, she suddenly longed to hear Xin Yihan's voice comforting her - only he knew what she needed most at this time.
"Little words."
A familiar voice rang in her ears. She opened her eyes in surprise and saw Xin Yihan's familiar face close at hand. Her nose couldn't help but feel sore and she shouted "Brother Yihan". She could no longer control her emotions and cried. into his arms.
