Deer in deep forest

Chapter 40 The Truth Comes Out
An abandoned factory in the suburbs was used to make shoes.After the bubble economy, the boss couldn't survive and ran away with the money, the factory was smashed by the workers, and it was in ruins everywhere. Now the air still smells of low-quality leather, which is disgusting.

Lu San was tied to a stool, and the stool was kicked over to the ground. Half of his face was pressed tightly against the man-made leather that had been eaten by rats.

Gu Yanshu said to him: "You have made it clear, there may still be a way out today."

Lu San spat bloody foam, "If I don't say it, you really dare to kill me? Don't the people of the Gu family need to talk about Wang Fa?" The word Wang Fa came out of his mouth, which was very funny.

"You are a damned person, why would I not dare." Gu Yanshu was impatient, and raised his foot to step on Lu San's face, exerting force, the flesh under his foot slowly twisted and deformed.

He said: "You might as well say it as soon as possible while you still have the chance, I don't want to wait any longer."

Lu San's throat sounded like a blower, and his ten fingers clasped on the iron rod on the back of the chair little by little, turning into bloody mud.Gu Yanshu moved his foot away so that he could finally speak: "I said, I said..."

"Six years ago, Da Chuang and I lost all our money in an underground bank. We had no choice but to go to Gu's house and blackmail your mother. Back then, your mother..."

Time passed bit by bit, and the night in the suburbs was as silent as a dead sea, not even the sound of the wind.Lu San's rough voice was intermittent, and finally he finished all and stopped.

When Gu Yanshu came out of the factory, it was pitch black outside, and he couldn't tell the time.

Lu San was probably too afraid of death, so he told everything he knew.For example, when his mother hired someone to cause his father's car accident, Xiguang overheard their conversation in the reed marsh, was discovered, and no matter how much he begged, he was still sent away.

The connection of things was the source of pain in the small half of his life.

Gu Yanshu felt cold, he thought of the night in Nanyao, when Xiguang cried and said sorry.She said, Yanshu, even I hate myself, why can't I come back to you.

You can see each other at a glance, one step is like a heavy city, and your love is separated by mountains and seas, which cannot be flattened.How should she come back to him?What's more, the distance between them is the truth that she has tried so hard to conceal for six years.

She always bowed her head and pleaded guilty, never opening her mouth to explain.Now these crimes have all become his nightmare.

Lu Xiguang, you are so ruthless.

After the trip to Pu'an, Yu Sui and Xie Feinian will fly back to City A.Xi Guang thought that his injury was almost healed, and it seemed a little unreasonable to go back to Nanyao Lai to play at home, so he went back with them and planned to go to school in a few days.

When we got to the airport, it was 11:30 that night.The exit passage was still crowded with people, and Yu Sui's assistant was waiting for her outside, as if there was something urgent at work.

Yu Sui's face was full of apology, and he said, "Xi Guang, I have to leave now, it's not the same road as you, I'll ask Xie Feinian to take you back, okay?"

Just as Xi Guang wanted to say that he could make a phone call back home, Xie Feinian already took it all in one gulp: "I promise to complete the task."

Yu Sui gave him a kiss, turned around and got into the car.

Xie Feinian pulled Xi Guang, walked to the underground parking lot, opened the car door, bowed his body slightly, made a standard "please" gesture very gentlemanly, and said with a slight smile: "Please get in the car."

Xi Guang wanted to beat him up again, "Please be normal."

Xie Feinian closed the car door for her with a bang, sat on the driver's seat, took off his coat and threw it on the back seat, loosening the neckline, "Tell me, where are you going back? While I'm in a good mood, I'll take you there right away."

Hearing his arrogant tone, Xi Guang relaxed his nerves and said, "Go back to Baichuanli."

Before the words were finished, the car drove away like an arrow off the string, Xi Guang suddenly leaned back, hit his head on the seat, and gritted his teeth.

The car stopped in front of the building in Baichuanli Community, Xie Feinian said, "Would you like me to go up and sit?"

Xi Guang sneered and asked, "Am I crazy?"

Xie Feinian raised his brows and said, "Crossing the river and demolishing bridges, dismantling mills and killing donkeys, deer cherish light, you are so heartless."

Xi Guang smiled and said, "Big donkey, goodbye." After finishing speaking, he ran away quickly. Facing violent elements like Xie Feinian, if he was quick to speak for a while, the consequences of being caught would be very serious.

Xi Guang ran out of breath, hurried to the corridor, lowered his head to take out the keys from his pocket, suddenly caught something under his feet, staggered forward, and supported the wall to stand still.

"Yanshu?" Xiguang turned her head, her eyes widened.

There were no lights in the corridor, and the sporadic light from the windows of the people in the opposite building penetrated in weakly, so I couldn't see his face clearly.

"where did you go?"

"when did you come?"

After a long period of silence, the two asked questions almost at the same time.

"Let's sit in the room first." Xi Guang opened the door first, pressed the light control switch on the wall, and the room suddenly became bright.

Gu Yanshu behind him didn't move. He stood in the shadow of the door, as if insulated from the light.On the bloodless face, the lips were pursed into a straight line, leaving a pair of dark eyes, reflecting the dots of light, reminding Xi Guang of the frost condensed on the wrinkled flowers and leaves beside the road in late autumn.

Xiguang felt that there was something wrong with Gu Yanshu, so he hesitated for a while, and boldly stretched out his hand to hold him.

With this tugging, he didn't hold back any more, he walked in and changed his shoes.

Xi Guang looked at it dumbfoundingly, how could he be polite like a child he recognized, and insisted that someone take the initiative to invite him.

Xiguang went to the kitchen to pour some water, and received a call from Song Yusheng.

Song Yusheng asked her: "Xi Guang, did Yan Shu come to see you?"

Xi Guang glanced at the petrified person sitting in the living room from the corner of his eye, and said, "He's by my side now."

"That's good," Song Yusheng's voice became brisk, "I've given you a task, cherish the light, let him go to sleep."

Xi Guang was puzzled, and heard Song Yusheng say: "He hasn't had a good rest for a long time, and if he continues like this, he will die from overwork."

Although Song Yusheng sounded like he was just laughing in the second half of the sentence, Xiguang's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned unknowingly.

After making the bed, and being mentally prepared that Gu Yanshu would not pay much attention, Xiguang said carefully: "It's so late, go to sleep."

With a simple sentence, Gu Yanshu cooperated unexpectedly, and only asked her: "Which room?"

Xi Guang completed the task too smoothly, his reaction was a little slow, and he pointed at him casually.

That night Gu Yanshu occupied Xiguang's room, and Xiguang went to the bedroom where Yu Sui lived before.She had a pleasant journey, but she felt very tired after running around on the way back from the flight. Thinking about the strangeness of Yanshu today, all kinds of unconstrained thoughts popped up in her mind, and she fell asleep drowsily.

After an unknown amount of time, the door of the room was opened silently, and a slanted shadow fell in front of the bed, Xi Guang didn't know anything about it in his dream.

Gu Yanshu squatted down and approached Xiguang's face in the dark, obviously he couldn't see anything.After a while, he seemed dissatisfied with this closeness, pressed the corner of the quilt, and lay down on his side on the edge of the bed, his body curled up slightly, and his forehead was touching Xiguang's, just like when he was a child.

The thin lips opened and closed, but there was no sound, Lu Xiguang, you idiot.

A red thread was wrapped around his fingertips, and the elk pendant on it was held in his palm.The night she was kidnapped by Lu San, he picked it up at the fork in the road and never returned it to her.

Now, I am not ready to pay it back.

He can hold tight, and won't let go.

Waking up the next day, Xi Guang found that the bedroom next door was empty, and Gu Yanshu left at some point.

She stuffed the books in her schoolbag, went to the department counselor to sell her vacation, and went back to the classroom to attend classes.When the classmates in the class saw her, they all said that she had disappeared for a century. Xi Guang smiled and walked to the back row of the classroom to find a seat.

After leaving behind the class for a long time, I suddenly came to listen to the lecture, and I didn't understand many things.But after all, it is a liberal arts class. If you read more books and think about it yourself, you should be able to make up for it slowly.

The next two classes are news documentaries.The teacher did not continue to teach new content, opened the USB flash drive, copied a movie on the computer desktop, and clicked play.

It is "The Emperor Penguin Diaries" by Luc Jacques, which won the honor of Best Documentary Documentary at the 78th Academy Awards.

The teacher is also very confused. I downloaded the French version without Chinese subtitles.The network speed in the classroom is too slow, and it is impossible to watch online smoothly.The students below complained and slapped the desks one after another.

The teacher got angry: "Continue watching the movie or listen to my class?"

The students said in unison: "Continue watching the film!"

"You little bastards! Is it so painful to listen to my class!" The teacher said, "You choose the road yourself. When I read it later, if I hear someone complaining about the lack of subtitles and saying that the teacher is lacking in heart, I will tell you what to do." Beat you to the core."

Everyone roared with laughter.

The projector in front of the classroom slowly lowered the screen, and the film had already started playing.

The snow-covered world is endless and vast.There is the most naive king named Penguin.With a bulging white belly and flapping a pair of wings, it appears in the picture.

The pronunciation of French is steady, without ups and downs, and it sounds continuous, like a trickling river.The dialogue between the male penguin and the female penguin was going on alternately, Xi Guang could only look up at the screen and guess out of thin air.

Some people couldn't understand the lines and were really bored. They lowered their heads and played with their phones, while some were sleeping.No one spoke to disturb classroom discipline.

In spring, the sun was shining brightly after ten o'clock in the morning.In order to make the screen clear, the curtains in front were pulled up to cover it tightly.Sunlight poured in through the open windows next to the rear seats, and the classroom was divided into half bright and half dark.

Xi Guang was basking in the sun, her whole body was warm, but she suffered from not being able to understand the lines.She became interested, and took out her mobile phone to surf the Internet to see if there were any lines to compare.

There was a small sound from the seat next to her. Someone took a seat. It seemed that she was late for class again. She thought to herself without turning her head to look.

Xi Guang looked down at a line, then looked up at the screen.

After another sentence in French, a cold voice came from the side: "The sky shines above our heads, and the sun and stars draw eternal patterns. Under our feet, in the depths of the earth, the eternally beautiful magnetic field rustles. Trembling..."

Xi Guang turned his head in surprise, looking at the young man beside him, he was sitting quietly in the sun, his eyes staring at the front, as clear as the clear sky after the spring rain.

"Every year, our roads change their appearance, and the icebergs are like tall tramps, knocked down by the winter. We have to walk a lot more, around these sleeping giants. But in the memory of our fathers, Never before has a team lost its way..."

"Despite the cold sweeping across the plains, despite the strangely shaped icebergs blocking the way, the migratory teams come from all directions, meet, converge, always on the same day, at the same time, at the same place, as if by magic..."

With a voice that the two of them could hear, he accurately translated French sentence by sentence to Xi Guang, as if reading a poem for her in front of the fireplace.

Xi Guang looked at him, forgetting about the huge colony of penguins on the screen, the emotion called sweetness was out of control and spread in her heart.

Gu Yanshu asked her: "Do you still watch movies?"

Xi Guang said: "Look." Turning her gaze away, she couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "But you look better."

The corner of Gu Yanshu's mouth seemed to twitch, and he said, "Let's go have dinner together after class."

A big smile appeared on Xiguang's face, and said, "Okay."
