Lin Banxia once heard a sentence.
"She was still young at that time, and she didn't know that the gift from fate had already marked the price in secret."
This sentence, placed on Cheng Yuliu, couldn't be more appropriate.
Cheng Yuliu used her secret to get rid of poverty. It stands to reason that she should be happy. You can eat exquisite food and wear gorgeous clothes in a mansion that even fantasized about exaggeration, but Cheng Yuliu found that it was getting harder and harder for her to feel happy. This is not hypocritical, but an intuitive expression. The emotion called happiness seems to be continuously sucked away by something. She spends all her life to spend, but it is difficult to appreciate the 1% of the happy emotion at the beginning.
"In the beginning, it was only tens of thousands." Cheng Yuliu said casually, "I was very happy. Later, I won millions, but I couldn't feel anything."
The two listened quietly without interrupting.
"But fortunately, my husband still loves me." Cheng Yuliu continued with a smile, "he really loves me, and even his family loves me very much. I am an orphan, but his parents are just like me I love me like my biological parents, we have a smart and beautiful child, everything is so beautiful…”
Although money can no longer bring happiness to Cheng Yuliu, but the warmth of the family relieved her inner anxiety, she began to focus more on her husband and children, and began to stay away from her secrets. At this time, Cheng Yuliu also vaguely felt that there was something else hidden in that secret. She couldn't explain it, but instinctively felt the danger.
But is it really that easy for people who fall into the swamp to leave
Cheng Yuliu lit another cigarette, her thin face looked particularly ferocious in the flickering candlelight and the dense smoke. She squinted her eyes and glanced at the lump of meat on the ground that she couldn't see clearly. A mean line was drawn on his lips, and he grinned: "It's a pity, I saw the wrong person."
"He cheated."
Husband cheating? Even though his wife was so rich, he cheated. Cheng Yuliu has not yet figured out why he fell in love with a woman with no merits. She was even several years older than herself. She had neither money nor beauty, but her husband seemed to be evil. Generally, she was so fascinated by her that she even wanted to divorce Cheng Yuliu.
Cheng Yuliu collapsed. From the cursing at the beginning to the begging later, she begged her husband not to leave her. She even moved out of the children and her mother-in-law and asked them to help herself.
But what Cheng Yuliu didn't expect was that no one was on her side.
The children who didn't usually kiss her were indifferent to her, said that they hated their mother, and hid behind her husband mercilessly. Her husband's mother, while criticizing her husband, said to Cheng Yuliu to let her open up, saying that if a man changed his mind, even if ten cows could not be brought back, she said that Cheng Yuliu was still young, even if divorced, Can find another one.
She smiled and comforted Cheng Yuliu, her usually kind face became distorted like a devil, Cheng Yuliu sat blankly on the ground, her ears rumbled, it was obviously her house, her relatives, But everything in front of her made her feel extremely unfamiliar, as if she had never gotten it before.
"It's okay to get a divorce, all the things and children belong to me." Cheng Yuliu spit out a sentence with difficulty.
"It belongs to you, why should it belong to you." The gentle eyes of the man were gone, and he looked at her as if she was looking at something dirty, "It's all the lottery prize you bought after your marriage, it's your property after marriage, and you still want to take it all. Go?" He laughed, looking at Cheng Yuliu's embarrassed appearance, without a trace of guilt, he even took out a divorce agreement from his arms without hesitation, and fell in front of Cheng Yuliu, " I advise you to sign quickly, otherwise I have a way to get you."
Cheng Yuliu's tears had dried up. She looked at the man blankly like a wooden man. She said, "Why? Why?"
"Why?" the man said. "You said that there is no monster like you. You are not allowed to turn on the lights when it is dark. You only dare to go out when it is cloudy? Are you a vampire? Live with a monster like you, sooner or later. crazy."
Cheng Yuliu fell silent.
After that, the man left with the child, leaving her alone in the room. Before leaving, he asked her to think clearly and sign it as soon as possible so that they could go through the formalities. It is impossible to leave the house to Cheng Yuliu. He plans to live here, and he can give Cheng Yuliu part of the deposit. She takes the money and must leave immediately.
That day, Cheng Yuliu sat at home for a long time.
The empty and large room was like a cave, and the howling cold wind kept pouring into it. The whispers in Cheng Yuliu's ear became louder and louder. She felt as if someone was talking to her softly. It said, don't cry, I am with you. It said, tell me now, or they're leaving. It says, what are you worried about, if you hesitate, you will have nothing.
Cheng Yuliu had heard this voice countless times, and it was it that allowed him to have everything he has now.
Cheng Yuliu stumbled up from the ground and groped for the switch of the light in the living room. After she discovered something, she hadn't turned on the light for a long time, not because she didn't want to, but because she didn't dare.
With a click, the switch made a soft sound, and the bright light illuminated the entire living room, but the light seemed to burn Cheng Yuliu's skin. The shadow cast by the light formed a black hole under her body that was about to swallow people. It should have been a flat reflection, but it started to wriggle and struggle, and then slowly emerged from the ground. Behind Cheng Yuliu, a black hole was formed. A humanoid form.
Cheng Yuliu burst into tears, she didn't dare to look back, she shivered like a frightened animal and shrank in place.
She heard the same voice as her from behind, asking her softly: "What do you want?"
Cheng Yuliu was quiet for a moment, before she opened her mouth softly, she said, "I think the family will never be separated."
The voice said, "Okay."
Then everything disappeared, and the sound seemed to be just Cheng Yuliu's illusion.
Cheng Yuliu wiped away her tears and pulled out a difficult smile from the corner of her mouth.
No one knows that she has a shadow that can fulfill her wishes. As long as she makes a wish to the shadow, all wishes will come true. Wealth, beauty, a handsome husband and lovely children, she has everything, but when she made a wish, she forgot to ask for a happy family for herself.
However, this desire gradually took away all the joy she could perceive. No matter how exaggerated the number in the bank card was, no matter how beautiful others praised her, she couldn't raise a centimeter of the corner of her mouth.
After making a wish, Cheng Yuliu called her husband and invited them to travel. The husband wanted to refuse at first, but she threatened him that she would die in front of him if she did not go with her. Probably because they were afraid that Cheng Yuliu would do something extreme, her husband's family reluctantly agreed.
Although they agreed to Cheng Yuliu's request, they were not willing to take the same car with her. So in this final journey, only Cheng Yuliu was left alone, driving her car on the highway, the surrounding scenery was distorted and deformed due to the speed, the windows were not closed, and the cold night wind beat her cheeks fiercely On the road, she seemed to be walking on a road with only one person, and she couldn't turn back or turn. Only a hard hit could stop her.
It was just a trance. The huge crashing sound behind her made Cheng Yuliu come back to her senses. In the rearview mirror, she saw an out-of-control truck and rising smoke. The smoke swirled in the night sky, vaguely turning into a slender black shadow, looking down at the ground indifferently.
Cheng Yuliu slammed on the brakes and parked in the emergency lane in embarrassment. She opened the door and stumbled back. There was a mess in sight.
The large truck fell in front of her, the heavy carriage fell to one side, and a familiar car was crushed under the carriage. The car was completely crushed, and the height of the car was only twenty centimeters— No one can survive in such a situation.
Cheng Yuliu slowly fell to the ground, her vision turned, and she saw the dark sky, there was no light in the sky, just as dark as her shadow, staring at her gloomily.
The rescuers came quickly and took the completely deformed corpse out of the carriage. When they were doing all this, Cheng Yuliu was beside her. She watched them transport the corpse into the body bag and carry it again. When I got to the car, I saw that it was going to be transported away. She finally couldn't bear it anymore, and burst into tears. It was her fault that she shouted. If she hadn't insisted on coming out, they wouldn't have died. If they didn't die, they would have been with her forever—
The police helped her to the car and took her off the highway, originally intending to hand her over to relatives. But after investigation, the police found that the woman had no other relatives at all. She was an orphan, and her husband's family was her only relative.
"I want to go to the funeral home to see." Cheng Yuliu, who had been crying all the time, suddenly stopped crying, her eyes were straight, as if she had fallen into evil, and insisted on going to the funeral home.
The police sympathized with her, and seeing that she could not be persuaded, they had to send her over for safety.
As soon as they arrived at the funeral home, they saw the car used to hold the corpse. The door was opened, and the faces of the people standing outside were extremely ugly.
Cheng Yuliu also saw the pieces of meat piled up in a messy carriage. This time, she showed a weird smile. At this time, she finally understood that the car accident was not an accident.
Shadow has fulfilled her wish once again - the family will be together forever.
It's just that in their family, there is no place for Cheng Yuliu.
