heartstrings

Go downstairs.

Ke Ruochu walked slowly in the neighborhood, as if he had lost his soul, thinking of all the things just now, the wet circles under his eyes were wet again.

When she said those words to Yuan Luzhi, her heart ached, but if she didn't say them, she was so depressed that she couldn't breathe.

With Sheng Ruqi, she would not give in no matter what. The gloomy life finally had light, how could she give up.

Ke Ruochu let out a long sigh of relief and pulled himself together.The problem between her and her mother, repeated avoidance will only intensify, and she must face it head-on like tonight.

She also knows very well that it is inevitable to make trouble.

The weather has changed and the wind has picked up.

Huhu brushed over the branches, and the leaves kept making rustling noises.Roll up the coldness.

Ke Ruochu was so cold that he hugged his arms.

His face still hurts, and there are traces of being slapped.

Yuan Luzhi hit hard.

It must have looked like a mess.

Ke Ruochu thought for a while, and didn't intend to go to Sheng Ruqi, but sent Sheng Ruqi a WeChat message.

Tapping the keyboard skillfully with her fingertips, Ke Ruochu sent a lot of messages to Sheng Ruqi, but she didn't call, because when she called, she was afraid that Sheng Ruqi would hear that she had cried.

Sheng Ruqi was really not in the mood to rest, sitting on the sofa with a melon in her arms, all kinds of restlessness.

Seeing Yuan Luzhi's attitude at night, she was really worried about Ke Ruochu.

Tried to call several times.

Fortunately, it didn't take long, and the news came.

Sheng Ruqi immediately picked up the phone.

[Little White Rabbit] Are you asleep?

[Little White Rabbit] We've already talked, but my mother thought it was too sudden. She always thought I regarded you as my sister, but she didn't say anything. It may take a few days to slow down.

[Little White Rabbit] Sister-in-law also helped us talk, don't worry about me, go to bed early, I will sleep at home tonight, and I will go back tomorrow.

【Little White Rabbit】Good night

After seeing this, Sheng Ruqi felt at ease.He didn't reply to the message, so he called Ke Ruochu directly.

When the phone vibrated, Ke Ruochu looked at the "sister" on the caller ID and took several deep breaths before answering.

"You haven't slept yet, I'm about to take a shower." Ke Ruochu's eyes were red, but the corners of his mouth were grinning, afraid of revealing anything.

As soon as she heard the sound, Sheng Ruqi knew something was wrong. She cried tonight.

"Is it really all right?" Sheng Ruqi asked softly, not breaking anything, feeling that Ke Ruochu was trying hard not to make her worry, but the more Ke Ruochu deliberately covered it up, the more distressed she was.

"Well, don't worry about it." Ke Ruochu looked up at the night sky like a bottomless pit, tried to keep smiling, and said, "Go to bed early, you have to go to work tomorrow, and I'm going to wash up and go to sleep."

Ke Ruochu spoke very easily, so easily that he almost deceived himself, as if tonight was not bad at all, and everything went smoothly unexpectedly. ?

She must have been wronged, and she still kept silent. Sheng Ruqi wished she could run to find her right away, but right now she could only comfort her softly, "Baby, have a good rest. I'll pick you up after get off work tomorrow."

"Well, good~"

The phone call with Sheng Ruqi, Ke Ruochu felt that it was a long time for the first time, and the second the call ended, the smile disappeared.She still looked up at the night with her neck up, her eyes unblinking, the moon was very round, and the stars were still shining, but she was not in the mood to appreciate them.

Lowering his head again, Ke Ruochu stared at the phone in a daze, and turned on the airplane mode.

Yuan Luzhi tidied up the room, as if everything was going on as usual, with an indifferent and indifferent attitude.

Ke Zhihan knew that she had a sharp mouth and a tofu heart, and she looked like a normal person on the surface, but she didn't know how uncomfortable she was.

"Go to bed, it's almost eleven o'clock." Yuan Luzhi said to Ke Zhihan.

Ke Zhihan was still a little worried about Ke Ruochu, so she called Ke Ruochu several times, but they all reminded her that the phone was turned off.

This time Ke Zhihan became even more worried, and she immediately called Sheng Ruqi again.

Sheng Ruqi had just come out of the bathroom when she received the call, wiping her wet hair with a towel.

"Ruqi, Ruochu has arrived at your place, right?"

Sheng Ruqi was a little puzzled when she received a call from Ke Zhihan, and when she heard Ke Zhihan's question, she immediately realized something was wrong, "Isn't she at home?"

"She didn't look for you?" Ke Zhihan became anxious now, "She came back and had a big fight with her mother, then ran out without saying a word, I thought she went to your place, even if I called her, the phone was turned off. "

"What?!" Sheng Ruqi became more and more nervous, "She called me just now and said she was sleeping at home."

"This child..."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, maybe you are relaxing outside and your phone is out of battery." Sheng Ruqi was not much better than Ke Zhihan.

"If she finds you, please let me know."

"Um……"

After Sheng Ruqi hung up Ke Zhihan's phone, she dialed Ke Ruochu's number.There is an alert tone on the other end of the phone: "The phone you dialed has been turned off."

Had a big fight and ran out, just now she smiled and comforted herself and said it was okay... I told myself that no matter what happened, I had to tell myself, this idiot was holding back by herself again, Sheng Ruqi spent two seconds to stay calm and stay where she was Walking around, he called Bai Meng.

Bai Meng fell into a drowsy sleep and said that Ke Ruochu was not with her.

"If she contacts you, tell me."

Hearing Sheng Ruqi's anxious tone, Bai Meng opened her eyes wide, "What's wrong?"

Sheng Ruqi had already hung up the phone.

If she is in a bad mood, where will she go?

Sheng Ruqi suddenly thought of a place, she hurriedly changed her clothes, picked up the car keys and left.

On the other end, Yuan Luzhi secretly watched Ke Zhihan's phone call. Afterwards, she couldn't sit still anymore, pulled Ke Zhihan and asked, "Why, didn't you call her?"

"Maybe I'm relaxing outside alone."

"Where are we going to relax so late? I just said a few words to her..." Yuan Luzhi was in a hurry, thinking that Ke Ruochu was looking for Sheng Ruqi.

"Don't worry, she's already this old, she's not a child anymore."

"She just didn't grow up!" Yuan Luzhi said, but she had already picked up her mobile phone and started making calls.

She has left contact information for her friends and classmates who have a close relationship with Ke Ruochu.

Asking the same thing over and over again, saying "sorry to bother you" over and over again

Just no news.

Yuan Luzhi sat on the sofa, all kinds of worries came to her heart, and she didn't sit for 2 minutes, "No, I have to go find her."

"Where are you going to find her?"

"Go to school and have a look."

"If you don't answer the phone, you want to avoid us." Ke Zhihan guessed that Ke Ruochu went to relax by himself, but it's so late at night, how can he rest assured.

Yuan Luzhi said: "In the middle of the night, it's dangerous for her to be outside as a girl."

"Now I know I'm in a hurry. Didn't you say you were not in a hurry just now? Didn't you tell her not to come back forever?" Seeing Yuan Luzhi's duplicity, Ke Zhihan couldn't help but say a few words to her, "Mother and daughter, what can't you talk about... "

Yuan Luzhi was silenced by the silence, and then kept urging Ke Zhihan, "Call her again and see if she turns on the phone."

Drive through familiar roads.

Sheng Ruqi went straight to the gymnasium next to the school. Ke Ruochu used to play squash there alone. She said that when she was in a bad mood, sweating would relieve her stress.

When Sheng Ruqi hurried over, the gymnasium was already closed.

But in front of the door, she saw a familiar figure sitting on the steps, with her arms around her bent legs, her body curled up, her head buried between her knees.

Under the night light, I feel wronged and lonely.

Sheng Ruqi breathed a sigh of relief, she really came here.

Ke Ruochu originally planned to come to play, but when he came, it happened to be closing time.I don't know where to go, so I just sit outside for a while.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, a black shadow came over, Ke Ruochu looked up, and it was Sheng Ruqi standing in front of her, with no makeup, her hair was still wet, sticking together in small strands.

Ke Ruochu stood up unexpectedly.

"Why do you turn off your phone?" Sheng Ruqi asked loudly.

"I..." Ke Ruochu wanted to be alone to calm down, so he turned on the airplane mode.

Before he knew the situation, Ke Ruochu was hugged tightly by Sheng Ruqi, so tightly that he couldn't breathe.

"Scared me to death." Sheng Ruqi wrapped her arms around Ke Ruochu, and gave a warning while smiling reassuringly: "If you dare to play missing again in the future, I will teach you a lesson..."

Her drenched hair was against her cheek, as cold as ice.Ke Ruochu was so hugged by Sheng Ruqi that he couldn't move, "I called you because I never disappeared."

Sheng Ruqi moved her eyes to Ke Ruochu's cheeks, and found that her eyes were swollen from crying, and half of her face was flushed, "What's wrong with your face?"

"It's okay, it was blown by the wind." Ke Ruochu hid and changed the subject, "Why are you here? Your hair hasn't been dried yet."

Even though he asked this way, Ke Ruochu could tell that Sheng Ruqi came to find her on purpose.

The red mark on the fair skin was very obvious, Sheng Ruqi stroked it gently, her heart ached terribly, "Did your mother hit you? Does it still hurt?"

Ke Ruochu pursed her lips, it was obvious that Sheng Ruqi knew something, for some reason, when she was being hugged and coaxed like this, she wanted to cry instantly.

Try to hold back, try not to cry in front of her...
