Relocation Brigade

Chapter 139 Smile Town 17

He Xiangxi had already gone far, even if Chen Ling broke free from the shackles of Jiang Yu, he would not be able to catch up with him.

He relaxed and looked back at the people behind him: "What's wrong with you?"

The heavy gloom between Jiang Yu's brows was depressing for no reason.

"It's nothing." His expression quickly returned to normal, and he shook the newly issued meal card in his hand, "Please eat something."

Before Chen Ling agreed, he was dragged away.

There is no food in the cafeteria at this point, but there is a long queue outside the dessert shop next to the cafeteria. There are girlfriends and couples holding hands.

Noticing the young man's gaze, Jiang Yu lowered his head slightly, breathing on his cheeks: "Envy? Want to fall in love?"

"No." Chen Ling looked down at his hands, feeling that something was missing.

He took a breath and moved forward with the team. Before he could stand still, the young couple in front suddenly started fighting, and the girl took two steps back.

Foreseeing that his foot was about to be injured, Chen Ling subconsciously closed his eyes, but his body suddenly lightened, and he was immediately hugged by someone under his armpit.

Chen Ling opened his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him, both of them were a little dazed.

Jiang Yu put the man back on the ground calmly, stretched out his hand, and easily exchanged places with the young man.He is tall, standing tall and straight on the ground like an indestructible city wall, which can block all wind and frost from the outside world.

Chen Ling glanced at his toes and thought, am I so much shorter than him?

He raised his head and glanced at the back of the opponent's neck and hair.

The fine black hair is neatly attached to the hollow where the back of the head connects to the neck, making the back of the neck white and slender, very sexy.

Chen Ling raised a finger, looked up with his eyes, and silently drew a straight line between the two.

The straight line is straight, but the angle is inclined all the way.

Chen Ling was happy, they were the same height, and instantly felt that the embarrassment of being hugged suddenly was not too embarrassing.

There is wind flowing behind.

He turned his head and found that the person standing behind him was stepping back.

Probably because she realized that she was looking at her, the girl raised her head, hugged the schoolbag in her arms nervously, and smiled at him stiffly, without moving.

It looked like he was afraid of what he would do to her.

Chen Ling frowned, and wanted to ask the girl if she had a feud with him before, but soon, he dismissed that thought because he saw the girl showing a frightened expression because of the movement of his mouth opening.

Beneath that expression, there was a hint of obvious disgust.

Chen Ling didn't want to say anything at once, he lowered his head and looked at his toes, feeling strange, everything was strange, including the new exchange student roommate.

Everyone seemed to be hiding something very important from him.

Chen Ling wanted to dig out this matter, but felt vaguely that when that matter was exposed from the black mud, his world would change.

The milk tea in this dessert shop is very special, you can mix it as you like. Chen Ling ordered a cup of original classic, looked at Jiang Yu's side face and asked, "What do you drink?"

Jiang Yu casually ordered one according to the order card.

After ordering, the two stood aside so that the next person could move forward.

Chen Ling noticed that the girl standing behind him seemed to mind his presence very much, and when she stepped forward, she deliberately took a big step, just passing the position where he had been standing.

Jiang Yu's hand gently put his shoulder on his shoulder, and the warm palm wrapped around his shoulder, making people not feel hot, but just a little warmer.

Chen Ling staggered his eyes on the girl, and turned her back to Jiang Yu: "Your body temperature seems to be lower than mine."

"Really." Jiang Yu replied softly, with a gentle voice, "Then do you like it?"

Chen Ling stared at him in a daze, and suddenly remembered the scene outside the office of the campus card center. At that time, Jiang Yu's face was like sinking water, and his eyes were obviously light-colored, but it gave people the illusion of depth.

It's a different person from now.

"Why do you ask me if I like it?" Chen Ling said in a low voice, "That's my business."

Jiang Yu smiled and said nothing, his eyes were still glued to the young man's face, and soon, that face was blushed by his gaze.

"No. 136." Someone shouted from the window.

Chen Ling handed over the receipt: "Ours."

The staff took the receipt, pushed the two cups of milk tea forward, and kept looking at Chen Ling's face, as if recognizing something.

Immediately afterwards, the girl who was standing behind Chen Ling came over, and she whispered to the staff who hadn't left yet: "Don't look, it's him, what a bad luck."

Jiang Yu didn't take the milk tea from the young man, but covered his ears with his hands.

"Let's go." The deep male voice carried some kind of magical power, Chen Ling could hardly resist, nodded obediently, and left this place together.

There was no class in the evening, and he didn't want to go to the classroom for self-study, so Chen Ling wanted to go home and go back to school tomorrow morning.

Jiang Yu saw that he was busy as soon as he returned to the dormitory. He kept stuffing clothes into the travel bag, leaned against the door frame, and asked, "Going home?"

"Yeah." Chen Ling didn't raise his head, and his tone was mixed with grievance and anger that he didn't notice, "Go back and see Mom and Dad. Oh, my home is in the suburbs, not far away."

Jiang Yu took out a bunch of car keys out of nowhere, "I'll give it to you."

"No need." Chen Ling tried his best to speak lightly, "Reverse the car twice, and we will arrive soon."

In fact, more than that, the large planting area of ​​the Chen family is privately contracted, and there is no shuttle bus or bus at all, let alone a subway.

After getting off the vehicle, he had to walk a long way with his bag to get there.

In the past, when he went home, his father or mother would drive to pick him up.

But today he didn't want someone to pick him up, he just wanted to go home alone, as if this would release the boredom and aggrievedness accumulated throughout the day.

Jiang Yu didn't seem to want to let him go alone: ​​"I just happened to go back, my family lives in the direction of Xiushui City."

Chen Ling was startled, "My house is also in that direction."

Jiang Yu pursed his lips and twirled the key ring with his fingertips, "Let's go, I'll wait for you downstairs."

It wasn't until the cold and slender figure disappeared that Chen Ling came back to his senses, hurriedly stuffed the last bit of things into his bag, and ran downstairs.

The car Jiang Yu drove was a black sedan, which looked low-key but was very high-profile.

Chen Ling stood at the rear door and hesitated for a while, feeling that it was not polite to sit in the back. After stuffing the things in, he closed the door and took a step forward to open the door of the passenger seat.

He fastened his seat belt obediently: "Okay."

Jiang Yu sighed, and suddenly stretched out his hand.

Glancing at the other party's slender and fair fingertips from the corner of the eye, Chen Ling's heart trembled for no reason, subconsciously nervous, he opened his mouth, "Why, what's wrong?"

As soon as the words fell, I felt the soft fingertips sticking to my forehead.

Jiang Yu carefully brushed away the hair that was sticking to his forehead with sweat, and then took out a piece of paper and stuffed it into the young man's hand: "Wipe the sweat."

Chen Ling groaned, and the white tissue was quickly clenched into a ball under the force. He wiped it a few times indiscriminately, and secretly glanced at the person who was driving.

Because of his relatively young age at school, he was only 19 years old in his junior year, and he was underage.

In contrast, Jiang Yu's profile looks much more mature, no, more mature than most of the students in school.This kind of maturity is not reflected in the skin, but in the eyes and temperament.

It was too tiring to squint at people, and before he knew it, Chen Ling had already leaned against the back of the chair, turned his head and stared at people intently.

Jiang Yu didn't seem to notice such an obvious gaze, but there was a very inconspicuous arc on the corner of his lips.

Chen Ling's eyes flickered, stayed on the corner of the other's lips for two seconds, and then turned to the other's Adam's apple, and he couldn't help swallowing a few times as the Adam's apple moved up and down.

The smile on the corners of Jiang Yu's lips widened, he still didn't look sideways, he just opened the box casually, took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to the young man: "Are you thirsty, drink some water."

Chen Ling stared at the glass bottle illuminated by the light, blinked a few times, sat up straight suddenly, and realized what he was doing just now.

He quickly took the bottle and unscrewed it, looked out of the window and took a sip, knowing that his face must be hot and red, he didn't dare to turn his head, and held the water bottle in his arms in an awkward position, his heart agitated .

Is there something wrong with me?Chen Ling thought about it, since the arrival of his new roommate, he has become more and more weird, nervous, and at a loss, and now there is one more thing, shyness.

Along the way, the two of them didn't speak any more, and they just got home quietly.

Standing on the side of the road, Chen Ling felt that the newly built villa next to his house was ridiculous.

In his memory, that small villa with white walls did not exist at all.

Jiang Yu didn't say goodbye, closed the window, restarted the car, and parked the car outside the new villa under the astonished eyes of the young man.

Entering the door, Chen's father and Chen's mother are watching TV in the living room, and Aunt Shu is preparing dinner for the evening in the kitchen.

Hearing the sound of the door opening outside the porch, the Chen family's parents stood up from the living room, and Aunt Shu poked her head out from the kitchen. The three of them looked at the door in surprise.

Father Chen was the first to react. His tone was a little harsh. He took the bag in his son's hand with one hand, and pulled him in with the other. "Why are you back at this time? The sun is about to set."

Chen Ling said blankly, "I just want to go home and have a look."

Chen's mother came over awake, pushed her husband away, touched her son's face for a while, and pinched his arm for a while, as if to confirm whether the son was complete.

Chen Ling coquettishly called out to her mother, "What are you doing, it makes me itch all over."

Mother Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "It's not you. Every time I call, I always say that I am fine. I don't know if you report good news or not."

In order to show that he was really healthy and that he was not missing any arms or legs, Chen Ling jumped up and down twice.

Mother Chen rubbed her son's head with a smile, "It's alright, alright, don't play tricks, go upstairs and take a shower first, and see how hot you are."

When his mother's hand brushed Chen Ling's forehead, he thought of the hand that brushed his sweaty hair again.

Chen Ling asked: "Mom, when was the villa next to us built? Why don't I remember it?"

Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, with a confused expression: "Isn't it always there? It's been a long time."

Father Chen urged: "Hurry up and take a shower, you're almost twenty, why are you still dawdling?"

His father was always silent and strict. Chen Ling pursed his lips, picked up the luggage bag that his father had put on the ground, and ran up to the second floor.

There is a small garden outside his room. Not far from the garden is a natural forest. Every time he returns home, he always opens the French windows to take a look outside.

Today, Chen Ling hesitated.

He thought of the villa where Jiang Yu parked his car. If he was right, there was a room on the second floor of that villa that seemed to be right next to his room.

Would he be able to see the other person when the window was pushed open?

Chen Ling was curious, but couldn't help but want to shrink back. He had already discovered his abnormal attention to Jiang Yu.

Putting away the hand that was about to open the window, he turned around and walked to the wardrobe. Just as he was about to pull it open, his fingertips were suddenly pricked by static electricity. At that moment, his heart beat wildly.

A strong sense of repulsion told him not to open it.

Do not open the closet door.

Chen Ling suppressed the inexplicable fear in his heart, took a deep breath, and suddenly opened the two closed cabinet doors.

The clothes were neatly stacked according to the seasons, and there was nothing else inside.

Chen Ling leaned his hands on the closet as if collapsed, and when his heartbeat calmed down, he took a set of home clothes from the closet and went into the bathroom.

The shower at school is always in a hurry, so I can't enjoy the bath time.

Chen Ling planned to relax and put a tub of hot water for himself.

He took off his clothes and lay down, closed his eyes and enjoyed the comfort brought by the hot water soaking his body.

Probably due to being in an inexplicable mood all day, under the fumigation of hot water, the eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally the upper and lower eyelids were tightly pressed together.

In Chen Ling's impression, falling asleep in the bath has happened many times, each time until the water temperature drops to a certain level, the person wakes up by himself.

But not this time.

In the middle of sleeping, Chen Ling suddenly trembled and sat up from the bathtub.

He quickly touched his neck with both hands, and pressed it back and forth several times, as if to make sure there was no injury there.

Before realizing how weird his behavior was, he got up from the bathtub naked and walked to the mirror.

The skin in the mirror was covered with water droplets, and the light shone on it, and the water droplets bloomed with crystal light.

Chen Ling was stunned for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he frowned vigorously. This time he touched his neck while fully awake, because he thought that at that moment, a hand should have grabbed him. right.

What's even more absurd is that he even thought that the scene of taking a bath just now should have happened, but in that scene, he was attacked.

Chen Ling felt his head was in a mess, squatted down slowly, and hugged his head tightly.

He felt that the world he was in was so illusory, but it was actually running.

"Is it because I haven't slept well recently that I have these messy thoughts?" Chen Ling squatted on the ground until his legs became numb, and stood up talking to himself. He didn't even care to wipe the water on his body, and hurriedly put on a short Sleeved shorts, went straight out of the bathroom.

He went to the bed, shook off the thin quilt, and was about to go to bed when he heard a noise outside.

The sound came from outside the window, from the house next door that didn't exist in his memory.

After thinking about it, he couldn't hold back his curiosity after all. He put on his slippers and faced the window.

The floor-to-ceiling windows are open, and there is a small open balcony outside. There are a few potted flowers and a deck chair on the balcony.On the opposite side of this balcony is also a small balcony. Jiang Yu seems to have just taken a shower, his hair is slightly damp, and he has changed into a V-neck T-shirt with a pair of light-colored linen trousers underneath.

He was sitting at a small round table, drinking water from a cup in his hand.

As if he had expected Chen Ling to appear, he tapped the small round table twice with his fingertips, "Do you want some water?"

It was only then that Chen Ling noticed that there was a steaming cup opposite him.

"Aren't you an exchange student? Why do you have a house here?" He asked bluntly, "My mother said that the house you live in has existed a long time ago."

Jiang Yu put down his cup and stood up, brought the other cup up, stretched his arm, and handed it to Chen Ling.

Chen Ling lowered his eyes and looked in. It was a cup of light tea.

The other party raised the cup to his eyes, and he was short of feeding it with his own hands. If he didn't answer it, it would be too impolite.Chen Ling took it with her lips pursed, and said thank you in an angry voice.

Jiang Yu propped his hands on the railing of the balcony, the warm light of the setting sun hit his handsome face, softening the cold outline.

He looked into the young man's eyes and said word by word: "I will be where you want me to be. It can be thousands of miles away, or it can be close to you."

Chen Ling: "..."

It's not that he's out of his mind, it's that Jiang Yu is really flirting with him!

Chen Ling felt that he couldn't ask any questions today, so he turned around and entered the room, closing the French windows and curtains tightly.

He sat down at the desk, put down the cup with a bang, the tea in it swirled out, and a little hot water fell on the back of his hand.

Chen Ling stared at the dripping water angrily, feeling annoyed in his heart, he didn't know what he was panicking about, forgot to return the cup to Jiang Yu before entering the door.

He was very sure that he had never seen that person before today.

So what happened to Jiang Yu's familiarity and flirtation with him?

Chen Ling fell silent. He knew that there is a kind of person in this world called Hai Wang who casts his net everywhere and has affection for every prey.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, he pushed the cup away with all his strength, as if he could really calm his mind if he couldn't see it.

The Chen family had a lot of food tonight, Chen Ling was full of oil, and his stomach was bloated a lot. Mother Chen wanted to take her out for a walk to digest the food, but when she remembered something, her expression changed, and she insisted on pulling her son back who had walked to the entrance.

She said softly: "Don't you have to go back to school tomorrow morning? Just don't go out, and watch TV with your parents at home."

So the family watched the mother's drama from the news broadcast, and it was ten o'clock in the blink of an eye.

Chen Ling yawned, "I'm going to sleep first."

Mother Chen shouted: "Slow down when you go up the stairs. If you have nightmares at night, call us. By the way, we stuffed something for you in your pillow. It may be a little tight. Bear with it when you sleep, don't take it out. .”

Chen Ling entered the room, hugged the pillow and rubbed it for a while, and really felt a hard triangle inside.

He frowned, "What?"

Putting down the pillow, squatting beside the bed to study carefully for a long while, Chen Ling finally confirmed that the thing was sewn into the pillow core, and if he wanted to take it out for observation, he had to first dismantle the pillow from the inside to the outside.

It's the middle of the night, so don't bother.

Chen Ling lay down on the bed dejectedly, pulled up the quilt, and was lightly sleepy, not enough to make him fall asleep all at once.

After closing his eyes boredly for a while, he opened them again, staring at the dark ceiling in a daze.

Probably because he stared at one place for a long time, what he saw visually deviated from the reality. He felt that a piece of the dark ceiling seemed to protrude.

Chen Ling flinched, grabbed the quilt tightly and wanted to cover his head but stopped suddenly - he was afraid that when he really hid in the closed space of the quilt, he would completely trap himself with other things.

But what else?

He couldn't figure it out.

A barrier seemed to be forcibly stuffed into my mind, making everything blurry and indistinct.

He pushed the half-drawn quilt back to his chest, and quickly reached out to turn on the light.

With a snap, the wall lamp turned on for a moment and then went out.

How could it be so unlucky!Dumbfounded, Chen Ling quickly got out of bed, stepped on the carpet with his bare feet, and leaned over to touch the light switch by the bed.

The white light filled the entire space, which immediately made people breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Ling lay back on the bed again. Not long after, his eyelids began to fight. As soon as he turned over, he woke up suddenly and touched his back with his backhand. His subconscious mind told him, don't turn over. If you turn over, something will stick to your back.

Chen Ling: "..."

He yelled in his heart, feeling like he was going crazy, what happened to him, did he suffer from hallucinations?

After all, he had watched horror movies, so he finally knew what he had been afraid of.

He is afraid of ghosts.

And what his mother said was hidden in the pillow, his intuition told him that it was probably related to superstition.

Chen Ling found scissors, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and cut open the pillowcase, then took out the pillow core from inside and opened it, and soon found a yellow talisman folded into a triangle.

The yellow talisman was taken apart, and he saw some red cinnabar inside.

The doubts in Chen Ling's heart rushed to the peak at this moment, he put down the pillow, opened the door to ask his parents, why did he put this on himself.

But when he stood at the door and saw the invisible corridor, he hesitated.

Mom, Dad, and Aunt Shu were all asleep, and the whole small building was plunged into quiet darkness except for his room.

Chen Ling retreated to the room and couldn't sleep anymore, not because he didn't want to sleep, but because he didn't dare to sleep.

The yellow talisman in his hand kept reminding him that his parents were on guard against something, and even he himself was uncontrollably imagining that there were terrible things hidden in the room.

The night was getting darker, but Chen Ling didn't dare to sleep. There were no outsiders here, so he could feel fearful without fear of embarrassment.

But no matter how hard he resisted, he still couldn't resist the invasion of exhaustion. He hugged his knees and squatted to the foot of the bed. After a while, his head began to move up and down rhythmically. The yellow talisman was wrinkled by his sweaty hands, almost Rotten.

Suddenly there was a meow, and the person at the foot of the bed immediately raised his head, and let out an uncontrollable "ah".

Soon, a thud sounded from the direction of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Chen Ling's whole body was tense, he poked his head under the bed to make sure that something would not suddenly reach out to grab his ankle, and then ran over barefoot and opened the curtains.

Seeing the people on the balcony outside the window, he was greatly relieved, but he straightened his back in an instant, "How did you come here?"

"It's turned over." Jiang Yu didn't change his face, and didn't think there was anything wrong with turning someone's window in the middle of the night.

Chen Ling held onto the curtain without moving, and asked again, "What are you doing here?"

"Come to accompany you." Jiang Yu curled his fingers and knocked on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, "Welcome?"
