silent age

The two played until night, walking along the riverside with their bicycles.The river reflected the flickering lights of the high-rise buildings on the other side and the reflection of the whole city. Someone set off fireworks on the other side, and gorgeous flowers bloomed in the sky.

Lin Heng put his bicycle aside, held Bai Sihuan's hand and leaned against the fence to watch the fireworks. Their figures were upside down, rippling, and blending in the river.

Having not seen Lin Xianyan for many days, Bai Sihuan couldn't help feeling worried.He finally couldn't bear it that day, and wanted to ask Lin Heng to ask Cheng Sutang where she took Lin Xianyan that day.

Lin Heng couldn't bear Bai Sihuan's pleading, so she went to ask Cheng Sutang once, but Cheng Sutang only answered him: "Do what she should do."

Counting from the day Lin Xianyan was dragged out by Cheng Sutang, she disappeared for about two weeks. She came back the day before Bai Sihuan started school.

Bai Sihuan heard her coming back early in the morning from the balcony on the second floor. The housekeeper opened the door, and she walked in quickly. She ran straight up to the second floor, rushed into the room, and closed the door with a "bang", without any delay during the whole process. .

Bai Sihuan came to the door of her room and knocked on the door three times, but no one answered.The sound of the shower came into his ears through the door of the room, mixed with Lin Xianyan's wailing.

When it was lunch time, Lin Xianyan still didn't come out, and the sound of the shower was still intermittent.Bai Sihuan called her name twice at the door, and the sound of the shower stopped.

Five minutes passed, and there was no movement inside. Bai Sihuan was afraid that something might happen to her, so he turned the doorknob.

The door was unlocked, so he easily pushed the door open and walked into the room.

The room was dark with the curtains closed except for the light in the bathroom.

Lin Xianyan, who was wearing a bathrobe, stood in front of the mirror, holding a pair of scissors in his hands, tremblingly pulling at his wet hair and cutting it randomly.

"Ah Yan!" The sharp blade passed through Lin Xianyan's fingers many times, and Bai Sihuan saw that he was covered in cold sweat, so he went up to stop her, "What are you doing? Put down the scissors!"

Lin Xianyan, who was touched by Bai Sihuan, instantly seemed to be possessed, raised his voice to the loudest, screamed like crazy, and the sharp voices twisted together, like a thorn, threatening to pierce Bai Sihuan's eardrum.

She vigorously pushed Bai Sihuan away, shrank aside and trembled, her eyes were scarlet, the scissors were clenched tighter and tighter in her hands, but she still did not give up cutting her messy hair.

"You'll hurt yourself like this!"

Bai Sihuan wanted to grab her scissors, but her scream sounded again: "Let me go! Get out! Get out!"

Bai Sihuan didn't listen to her, and still didn't give up stopping her actions. Lin Xianyan's resistance became more and more intense with his actions.

He only felt that the scene in front of him was shaking chaotically, and suddenly someone yelled out in pain, and blood was splashed on the white screen.

The pain came after he knew it. When Lin Heng heard the movement and rushed in to see this scene, and scolded Lin Xianyan who was shrinking on the ground, Bai Sihuan realized that his arm had been cut with blood.

"What the hell are you going crazy! Old Pei! Old Pei! Bring the first aid kit! Aunt Liu! Call Dr. Li!" Lin Heng pressed Bai Sihuan's wound, and bright red blood flowed from his Emerged between the fingers.

In less than 2 minutes, Lao Pei ran in with the first aid kit, and quickly knelt down to treat Bai Sihuan's wound.

Lin Heng rushed outside and shouted: "Aunt Liu! Have you called Dr. Li?!"

Aunt Liu ran upstairs with her mobile phone and said, "Dr. Li is on his way!"

Lin Heng looked at the sticky blood on his hands, and glared at Lin Xianyan.Lin Xianyan trembled all over, and the blood-stained scissors fell to the ground.

She stood up with the help of the wall, leaving five finger blood marks on the wall, and stumbled out of the bathroom.

When Lin Heng went out to look, she had already run downstairs and knocked down two enamel vases.

Lin Heng said to Aunt Liu who was at a loss at the stairs: "Go and see what she's doing."

Aunt Liu nodded, and ran out after Lin Xianyan.

Lao Pei helped Bai Sihuan to the living room on the second floor, and briefly stopped the bleeding for him. Not long after, Dr. Li came and treated Bai Sihuan's wound within a few minutes.

"How is it?" Lin Heng asked Dr. Li.

Dr. Li said: "It's nothing serious, it won't leave a scar. Just be careful not to touch the water."

Bai Sihuan didn't seem to care much about his injury, this kind of minor injury might be fatal to Lin Heng, but it was nothing serious to Bai Sihuan.

He moved his wrist and felt the numb pain spreading from the wound. He raised his head and asked Lin Heng, "Where is Ah Yan?"

"I ran out, and I asked Aunt Liu to take a look." Although he was dissatisfied that Bai Sihuan still cared about his second sister at this time, for the sake of his injury, Lin Heng didn't get angry with him, and just wanted to let He is more at ease.

It's just that his little concern didn't seem to have any effect, Bai Sihuan lowered his head, frowning tightly.From this minute to the next few hours, his brows did not loosen.

In the afternoon, Lin Xianyan came back once, changed clothes, and resolutely went out with the suitcase.

Lin Heng came down the stairs and saw her, and asked loudly, "Where do you want to go?"

Lin Xianyan acted as if he didn't hear, dragging the suitcase to open the door, close the door, and his back disappeared behind the door.

That night, when Cheng Sutang came back from the outside, Lin Heng couldn't help asking her for the second time: "Mom, what happened to the second sister? She didn't come back after she ran out today."

Cheng Sutang threw the fur and gloves that he took off to the servant, and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about her."

For Lin Heng, there are only these four words in response to Lin Xianyan.After that, the second sister who ran away from home was never mentioned again.

The third year of high school started, and before Bai Sihuan returned to school, he received a text message from Lin Xianyan. The text message was only a few words: I will never go back.

Bai Sihuan called and texted Lin Xianyan, but did not receive any response.Within two days, the number became empty.When the mechanical female voice repeated "The number you dialed is empty" in his ear, after repeating it twice, Bai Sihuan realized that Lin Xianyan had completely walked out of their life, and completely out of the Lin family.

Maybe it's because he can't get used to the days without Bai Sihuan. There are still a few days before the first and second year of high school, Lin Heng runs to school every day.Cheng Sutang asked him why, and he asked his driver to end his vacation early on the pretext of wanting to study at school.

Lin Heng ran back and forth between school and home a few days in advance, and the excuse of reviewing homework may not be fake.

Every day during class breaks, I would take a book and sway to Bai Sihuan’s classroom, put it on the window next to his seat, and I would always pick out a few questions that I didn’t know, and ask Bai Sihuan to teach him through the window.

In Bai Sihuan's classroom during the lunch break, sitting at his deskmate, lying down next to him to sleep with him, and every time Bai Sihuan's deskmate came to wake him up, he would leave with his trouser pockets in his pocket.

Sometimes when the deskmate is late, Lin Heng can still lazily say hello to the senior teacher before leaving after waking up.

Over time, several female students who wanted to concentrate on the college entrance examination couldn't bear to ask Bai Sihuan about Lin Heng.

The homeroom teacher seemed to see the signs of this, and talked to Bai Sihuan twice, and felt that Lin Heng's influence on the class was not very good.

Bai Sihuan went to discuss this with Lin Heng, hoping that he didn't have any particularly important matters, and that he would stop wandering around in the third year of high school.

Lin Heng was quite obedient at first, and he didn't appear in front of Bai Sihuan for the first three days.This kind of obedience made Bai Sihuan a little unaccustomed at first, he looked out the window a few times but didn't see anyone, and always felt that there was something missing.

On the fourth day, Lin Heng appeared again, took a time when Bai Sihuan was relatively free, leaned against the window and said to him: "I have something very important."

Bai Sihuan saw him reappear in front of him shining brightly, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What's so important?"

He pulled Bai Sihuan out of the classroom and pointed to a brand new bicycle on the basketball court: "If you want to learn how to bicycle, teach me."

Bai Sihuan looked at the bicycle, then at Lin Heng, unable to figure out what he had put on.

Lin Heng learned to cycle very quickly, and with Bai Sihuan's support, he was able to make two laps on the track in the playground within two or three days.

After two rounds of the playground, Lin Heng braked smoothly, stopped beside Bai Sihuan, raised his chin, and asked him confidently, "Are you doing well?"

Bai Sihuan remembered that when he was learning how to ride a bicycle, he fell several times before falling out. Lin Heng didn't fall even a single one of these times, and he was indeed much stronger than him.He smiled and nodded, "Yeah."

Lin Heng pressed ahead and demanded: "Give me some reward?"

"What reward?"

"Let me kiss you."

Bai Sihuan was startled, glanced at the people running and playing football on the playground, and politely refused: "There are so many people here."

"What's wrong with the crowd? Who are you afraid of seeing?" Lin Heng leaned over and kissed him on the cheek without any fear, and then rode away happily on his bicycle.

With such a behavior in public, Bai Sihuan felt as if he had made a mistake, his whole body froze, the place on the cheek that Lin Heng kissed was both cold and hot, as if he had been scalded, he dared not reach out erased imprint.

Bai Sihuan looked at Lin Heng, who was riding away from him on a bicycle under Hongxia, and then approached him again, with a slight smile on his face, but what was stirring in his heart was sweet and sour with a bitter taste.

Such a bitter taste made the corners of his mouth froze when he raised a perfect arc, his brows furrowed uncontrollably, the sweet taste remained in his heart, and the sour taste filled his eyes.

He wondered if he had really done something wrong.

He wondered what he had done wrong.
