thirsty

As soon as the number was dialed, Lu Xun's heart tightened. He didn't feel any emotion at first, but during the short dozen seconds of waiting for the call to connect, all his feelings suddenly exploded in him like an explosion. , wrapped him tightly.He almost jumped up and shouted "Transformation! Virgin Mary!"

Nervous, so nervous that fingers started to shake, when the call was connected, and a light and gentle female voice said "Hello" from the mobile phone, all emotions reached the highest point, and then fell like an ebb tide, leaving only lonely calm.

"Hi," Lu Xun said, "I'm Chinese."

The other party hesitated and paused for a moment, and Lu Xun almost thought it was disconnected.

"Hello." The virgin, bah, said when she first came out of prison out of kitchen waste, her tone was very gentle and kind, and Lu Xun couldn't feel any hostility after hearing it. It seemed that Bai Shen had a good eye and was very good at picking out wives.

"I want to meet you," Lu Xun said, "I want to ask you something, I hope you can agree."

"Is there a problem?" Chuyu asked.

Lu Xun didn't answer immediately. Hearing the other party's voice, he suddenly felt a little...terrifyingly calm.

Their tone is so similar, gentle, natural, light but very convincing tone.

"I'm an international police officer. I want to investigate the matter of Bai Shen," he said, and now he can only use the certificate that separates himself from the hooligans for his own sake. Send it to you, and you can decide on the address."

The other party didn't even keep silent this time, and said without thinking, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Xun sent her the photo of his ID, and also sent her a location when he got out of the bath. It was in a restaurant, not far away, and it took less than 10 minutes by taxi from the hotel.

He actually didn't know what to ask, he was already divorced, so what could he prove to Bai Shen's ex-wife?Does it prove that Bai Shen has a relationship history that he fucked all the way?

But compared to these, what he wants to know more is the truth, what exactly does he know about Bai Shen, and how much he has never come into contact with.

He arrived at the bathing location at the appointed time. A woman stood with her back to him at the entrance of the restaurant. Lu Xun walked over and asked softly, "Hello, is this Miss Chuyu?"

"Out of the bath?" The woman turned around, smiled, and stretched out her hand to him, "Hello, I am Bai Shen's ex-wife, Chu Yu."

Lu Xun also shook hands with her. The first reaction when he read someone's name randomly was not embarrassment or apology. Before he had time to react, he was suddenly overwhelmed by a thought: "We... .Have you seen it?"

Chu Yu didn't answer the question, but looked at him: "You said you have something to discuss, let's go."

"Where are you going?" Lu Xun asked, he thought she would say it while drinking and eating meat in a restaurant.

"My family, let's go." Chu Yu was very patient with him, or like Bai Shen, he was very patient with everyone.

Lu Xun felt that something was wrong, so he stood still: "I heard that you are married now..."

"Well, my husband is not at home," Chu Yu said, and after thinking for a while, he added, "The current husband."

When she said that, Lu Xun suddenly felt like he was committing a crime.Seeing him like this, Chu Yu couldn't help laughing: "Don't be too cautious. Although Bai Shen and I are divorced, we are still good friends now. Come to my house and sit down. Bai Shen has a special status. I don't want others to hear our conversation. .”

Lu Xun had just walked with her for a while, the distance was very close, and it took only 10 minutes to get there.

Chu Yu took out the key to open the door, and a small figure ran over and called for his mother.

Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief. With children around, it wouldn't be too embarrassing.But when he saw the child, he was stunned.

"Brother Lu Xun!" Rarity threw himself on him, "Long time no see."

He was startled, he hugged Rarity reflexively, stretched out his hand to raise the brim of his hat, and replied, "Yes."

He should have thought of it earlier, when he asked about Rarity before, Bai Shen said that he was a "friend's child", but in this world, how many children call their mother's ordinary male friend Dad?

The moment he saw Rarity, all his memories were revived. He and Chu Yu had met each other in less than a minute.More than half a year and almost a year ago, he saw Chu Yu at the gate of Bai Shen's house, and Bai Shen introduced him as "my friend Chu Chu".

But he never said that this friend was his ex-wife, and that the child might just be his fucking son.

Lu Xun thought about it, at that time Bai Shen had a high fever, maybe he was not feeling well, so he didn't bother to explain... However, after they got together, he didn't explain to him that his boyfriend had an ex-wife and a child , such a big matter, no matter whether he really cares about it or not, Bai Shen should explain it to him, even if he mentions it in passing.

But after careful recollection for a while, Bai Shen never took the initiative to tell him.

Lu Xun felt that his chest was stuffy, he couldn't breathe, and his heart, liver, spleen and lungs were not feeling well.

He bent down and gently put Rarui down, walked into the living room and sat on the sofa, Chu Yu sat down not far from him, looked at him with an indescribably complicated look in his eyes.

"Bai Shen and I were married and had children," Chu Yu said, "but we divorced when Rarity was over a year old. At that time, we were both immature and had some disputes."

Lu Xun lowered his head and said nothing, and stretched out his hand to lower the brim of his hat.

"But Bai Shen is a very good person, and now we are all relieved," Chu Yu smiled, "He has always been very good to me, and he has also been very good to me and Ruirui after the divorce. I will give them all, and I will often send gifts over.”

Lu Xun listened silently, still didn't speak, but felt very cold.

"I'm just his ex-wife. I don't know any other information except the trivial daily life between the two of us. Besides, I have been separated from him for several years," Chu Yu said, "If you want to know, I can give you Look at our chat history and what he sent."

Chu Yu handed him the phone, and Lu Xun took it and looked at it in a daze.

That was the dialogue between Bai Shen and her. Bai Shen’s circle of friends has not been updated since the incident of leaving the deep sea. Although it is usually updated infrequently, the latest circle of friends is a picture of the lake in Maple Leaf Town. The photo was accompanied by a string of out-of-order letters, which Lu Xun deciphered a long time ago, meaning "Santa Claus lost a reindeer, he went through hardships, and finally fell asleep in my arms."

Now it seems that these words and this picture are very ironic.

He looked at the chat records of Bai Shen and Chu Yu, most of the topics were about his daily life and Rarity's recent situation, and occasionally they joked and hurt each other.The tone of the two is not ambiguous, but there is no awkward politeness and alienation at all, just like the conversation that two good friends who have been together for many years are like brothers and sisters.

Lu Xun took a deep breath, and said in a very soft voice, "I want...to see your chat records for the last six months."

"Let's scroll up," Chu Yu said, "I haven't deleted his dialog boxes, but the software has been updated, so maybe I can only load the ones from the last few months."

Lu Xun nodded and said in a deep voice, "Thank you."

The previous he didn't look carefully, but just pulled it up.It is obvious that Bai Shen and Chu Yu have been in touch all the time. During the time he and Bai Shen were dating, even during those nights when they were sleeping in each other's arms, Bai Shen even sent back messages to Chu Yu.

He put down the phone and returned it to her, and was speechless for a long time.

After a while, he spoke with difficulty: "Bai Shen said that he had a first love...was it you?"

"It's not me. That girl is also our college classmate. After we got married, he said that I resemble that girl," Chu Yu said, "He is a very dedicated person, and he has always only liked this type."

"...Have you always only liked your type?" He asked unwillingly.

"That's right," Chu Yu said, "He said that he never liked anyone except me and that first love."

"...When?" Lu Xun asked.

"A month or two ago, he came to the United States to find me and said he would be busy for a while, so he didn't contact me again." Chu Yu replied.

Lu Xun felt a little unbearable, stood up and looked at her, and smiled forcedly: "Thank you."

"Do you want to see the things he sent over?" Chu Yu asked.

"No need." Lu Xun shook his head and took a step back, but felt his whole body go limp, couldn't hold back a stagger, and almost fell into the sofa.

Chu Yu quickly reached out to support him: "Are you okay? Your face looks bad."

"...It's okay," Lu Xun replied, and quickly pulled out his arm, "I'm leaving."

After Lu Xun finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left as quickly as he was fleeing.

His heart was very congested and flustered, as if he was suffocating, but mixed with some completely desperate silence.He quickly took a taxi back to the hotel, opened the door drowsily, and returned to a space alone, all emotions completely overwhelmed him in an instant.

Disappointment, cold, nausea, and the sadness soaked to the bone, and the sharp pain in the chest as if being torn open by a knife.

Lu Xun locked the door behind his back and rushed into the bathroom.

After vomiting, he walked to the mirror in a daze, took a glass of water to rinse his mouth, then washed his face, and then sat on the ground leaning on the edge of the sink, his head buried in his knees, and his hands hugged He bowed his head and sat in that position for a long time without moving.

As soon as the door was closed, Chu Yu sighed. She sat down and picked up her mobile phone to dial a number.

"What's the matter?" An anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I did as you said, and I think Lu Xun believed it. He looked very bad just now, and I was worried that he would fall down in the corridor." Chu Yu said.

"I promised grandpa not to go out now," Bai Shen's voice was obviously depressed, "but don't worry, I have a way to look outside. Now that Lu Xun has gone to the United States, many people are watching secretly, so we can only let him go first." Don't run around for me."

"Well," Chu Yu replied, "I think he looks like that, he is out of his mind, and he is afraid that something will happen to him before others harm him."

The other end was silent for a long time before picking up a specific topic: "Don't worry, I have coordinated protection near your house. It is a last resort to let Lu Xun go to your house. I am afraid that he... will be injured."

"I know, I'll bring him here if you don't tell me," Chu Yu said, feeling a little worried, "But when I went out to pick him up, I saw two suspicious people with Asian faces. Will Lu Xun go back like this now?" Danger?"

"I found someone to watch, and they are the ones I trust and have the most experience in the deep sea," Bai Shen said, "When he is in the United States, please help me take care of him."

"I know," Chu Yu felt distressed thinking of Lu Xun's appearance just now, and asked after a while, "By the way, have you been too depressed recently? I saw the photos sent by my aunt, and you have lost a lot of weight."

Bai Shen smiled helplessly, and didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "I'm fine here, maybe I'm not acclimatized."

He explained a few words and hung up the phone. Chu Yu watched the phone screen go dark, and couldn't help sighing again.

Her family is family friends with the Bai family. She and Bai Shen grew up together. She knows what sufferings and crimes he has suffered, and who he has really been attracted to.

After so many years, it was the first time she saw Bai Shen would love someone so much, giving everything with all he had.

Originally, by taking this opportunity, Bai Shen could withdraw from the deep sea and live the life he really wanted. The thing he had dreamed of for more than 20 years was close at hand. Now, for one person, he withdrew his hands and gave up, and was still coordinating the work of the deep sea. protect him.

This decision would change Bai Shen's entire life, but he did it resolutely, without even asking for rewards, and kept Lu Xun ignorant, and even... made him hate him.
