Case File Compendium

When Xie Qingcheng returned to Moyu Lane, Aunt Li happened to come out of the house to get something - she dried a bamboo basket of tangerine peels in the yard, and soaked some hot water every night before going to bed.

Seeing Xie Qingcheng appearing in front of Yuxiang in such a distraught manner, Li Miaoqing was shocked, and quickly said, "Xiao Xie? What's wrong with you?"

Xie Qingcheng was in a state of confusion, but he instinctively didn't want her to see him in a mess.

But Li Miaoqing had already stepped forward, looking back and forth at him nervously and with concern.

She was startled.

Her family's Xiao Xie's clothes were all crumpled, three or four of the buttons on the neckline were torn off, they couldn't be buttoned up at all, there were glaring hickey marks on her neck, and her lips were bitten, still stained with blood.

What frightened her even more was Xie Qingcheng's eyes.

Xie Qingcheng's eyes have always been cold and sharp, but at this moment, it seems that the camera has been damaged, and the focus has not been adjusted for a long time. The eye sockets of those peach blossom eyes are even slightly wet and red, as if they have cried.

Li Miaoqing was terrified. When she was young, she was the one who was touched by Fengyue. Seeing this scene, how could she not understand what happened?

She said tremblingly, "Xiao Xie, you...you..."

Xie Qingcheng said: "Aunt Li, I'm fine, I just accidentally fell on the road... You should rest early, I want to go home."

The most absurd thing about young people is that they think they can hide it from the elders who are over half a year old.

Aunt Li's beautiful eyes widened and her face turned pale: "But you are..."

She wanted to ask, but before those trembling words reached her lips, she stopped immediately.

She knew how strong Xie Qingcheng was and how much he took the face of his elders seriously.

She didn't dare to ask him again, but she couldn't bear to let go of him, the two stood like this in the small courtyard for a while, Li Miaoqing couldn't hold back anymore, and suddenly stretched out her arms to hug him.

Many, many years ago, she had a boyfriend. After the man knew that she had been a singing girl, not only did he not want to associate with her anymore, he also ignored that she had been a good man at that time, raped her violently, and called her a slut when he was done. Come out to sell bitch.At that time, she came to the gate of the police station as if she had lost her soul, and met Zhou Muying.

At that time, Zhou Muying looked at her back and forth several times, but didn't say anything at first, just reached out and hugged her.

She is holding Xie Qingcheng now. She doesn't know what happened to him, but she still remembers the comfort that a silent hug can bring.

She kept patting him on the back, and said in a crying voice, "Good boy, Xiao Xie, it's okay, it's okay..."

Xie Qingcheng said hoarsely: "...I want to go home..."

"..."

"Aunt Li, I want to go home..."

Li Miaoqing wiped away her tears, not knowing how to comfort him, but finally let him go and watched him enter the house wearily, worriedly.

That night, Li Miaoqing sat in her room, listened attentively to the movement next door, and carefully recalled many things that happened before—she was not a fool, Xie Qingcheng's clothes buttons, and the hickey marks on the side of his neck, The blood on the mouth... would never have been left by a woman.

She thought for a long time, and a figure gradually appeared in her head.

It was a young man who would not return home on New Year's Eve, so he had to stay by Xie Qingcheng's side. The young man looked very well-behaved at the long table banquet, and all the neighbors were eager to introduce him to someone, but he declined them one by one with a smile. But he seemed to glance at Xie Qingcheng.

Afterwards, when Li Ruoqiu came back, the boy stopped eating and followed to the door of Xie Qingcheng's house, waiting for fear of what might happen inside.

That night, the boy slept at Xie Qingcheng's house.

Only then did Li Miaoqing realize that the sounds of quarreling and smashing things she heard on New Year's Eve were not the sound of the movie they were talking about later.

She also vaguely heard the creaking of the bed and the sound of the wall being bumped that night. She didn't think much about it at the time, and even thought it was a dream. Now it seems that it is not her hallucination at all.

And the next morning, she saw Xie Qingcheng arguing with the boy at the door of the house, and when she saw her coming, the boy suddenly took off his scarf to block Xie Qingcheng's eyes, as if trying to hide something. neck...

Li Miaoqing seemed to be enlightened, the teacup she was holding fell down in a daze, and smashed to pieces on the ground.

No wonder she wanted to go on a blind date with Xie Qingcheng later. Xie Qingcheng didn't even bother to go, and kept shirking it all the time. It turned out that he and that child——

Ridiculous... this is ridiculous...

There was no crying from the next door, Xie Qingcheng is a very strong man, he will not shed tears easily.But Li Miaoqing couldn't hold it anymore, she raised her hand, covered her mouth with force, let out an uncontrollable sob, and tears welled up in her eyes.

How can Xiao Xie be so ignorant... He is a rich second generation under the age of 20. He looks like a playboy at first glance. How can a boy like that show any sincerity to others, how can he take care of others?He is... what the hell is he in a daze!To be entangled with a boy like that! !

Li Miaoqing closed her eyes, tears kept falling.

And at a place separated by a wall, Xie Qingcheng was lying on the bed with his clothes together. He had obviously never started with He Yu, so there was no talk of breaking up.Unexpectedly, this kind of separation that is not a breakup will cause more trouble than the real separation between lovers and husbands.

He numbly suppressed his emotions, raised his hand and turned on the bedside lamp.

It is a lamp imitating the light and shadow of the seabed, and there will be hazy jellyfish projections in the light.

Xie Qingcheng lay alone in this light all night, his cell phone beside the pillow was always on, and it was the monitoring data of He Yu's emotional bracelet.

He obviously had already collapsed, but he still remembered to keep an eye on He Yu's stats, lest He Yu's spirit be unable to support, continue to lose control, and slide into a rampage.

Fortunately not.

The indicator on the wristband went red for a while, but it still dropped.Xie Qingcheng knew that he might have taken medicine, but he couldn't help him this time... This is a hurdle that He Yu had to cross by himself, and he could only watch him cross it from no one's place.

A whole night of loneliness at the bottom of the sea, a whole night of orange-red monitoring light flashes.

Xie Qingcheng lay broken on the bed like this, with his eyes open, as if he had thought a lot, but also seemed to think about nothing.

until dawn.

Li Miaoqing got up early in the morning and took an ice pack to apply to her red and swollen eyes.

She made up her mind, she didn't ask Xie Qingcheng anything, the worst thing was to sprinkle salt on people's wounds.What she should do now is to take good care of him.

Xie Qingcheng didn't like to tell others about his worries since he was a child. Every time he encountered something, he closed the door and digested it by himself. It may be that the bitterness is digested too much, and his appetite is not very good.

When he lost his appetite, the only thing he could eat was Li Miaoqing's small wontons in chicken soup, or the simple home-cooked rice with Shanghai vegetables, and he could barely eat some.

Li Miaoqing was carrying a vegetable basket, ready to catch the earliest batch, and went to the vegetable market to buy wonton wrappers, minced meat, and the freshest Shanghai Qing.

In the end, she bypassed the small vegetable garden in plastic foam boxes in front of Uncle Liu's house, walked to the entrance of the alley, and saw that—that brazen playboy who didn't know what happened to Xie Qingcheng, shameless Little bastard, just sitting on the edge of the curb outside the alley, hugging his knees, his eyes are red.

Seeing someone coming out of the alley, He Yu immediately got up, leaned forward, and swayed slightly, but seeing that the person who came was not Xie Qingcheng, his expression quickly faltered again, and he became wilted like an eggplant.

This time, Li Miaoqing's conjecture was confirmed.

Out of anger, she strode forward, picked up the vegetable basket and threw it on the head of the eggplant. On the street at 05:30 in the morning, women in flowered pajamas beat up the hangover teenager without any scruples.She beat and scolded: "You still have the face to come here? You still have the face to come!"

He Yu was stunned, he twitched the tip of his red nose, let his aunt hit him, and only asked: "Auntie, you...how do you know...could it be that he...he told you already?!"

Li Miaoqing was so angry that she almost had high blood pressure.

See what he says!

Really self-inflicted!She guessed everything right!It's this gay beast!

She threw the vegetable basket, pointed at He Yu's nose, and yelled: "I still need him to tell me? I watched everything he did when he came back yesterday. Do you think I can't guess? Your son hasn't been born yet." My old lady was messing around in the messy dance hall when I was there, why can't I guess your grandma? Ah? Tell yourself what you did last night! You still have the face to come to him!"

She cursed and pushed He Yu hard: "What kind of son of a bitch are you? Huh? At his age, you still want to play with him, then force him and dump him, showing that you are very capable , so that you can go out and brag with your gang of cronies, right?"

After all, Li Miaoqing was born as a singing and dancing prostitute, and what she imagined was completely another drama.

The more she scolded, the more sad she became, she raised her foot that was holding the slipper, and kicked He Yu: "What are you playing? Is he the one you should play with? You are like...do you want a lover? Come to provoke him! His mother still has face now! How dare you come to him!!"

He Yu was also smart, and quickly figured out what was going on with Li Miaoqing.

He let her beat him silently, but the woman was really merciless in punching and kicking, and she finally calmed down. She spat out her hair that was accidentally eaten floating in front of her mouth, Then stared at him breathlessly.

"You go...you hurry up!"

He Yu didn't say anything until this time, he said with red eyes: "Auntie, I just want to ask him how he is now... I was... I was yesterday..."

"He's not dead!" Li Miaoqing interrupted him angrily, "He's not dead! You still have the face to mention what happened yesterday, do you want grandma to drag you to the police station, ah?!"

"..." He Yu knew she had misunderstood.

But he didn't want to refute either.

If he hadn't seen the tears at the end of Xie Qingcheng's eyes yesterday, would he have done something worse than a beast in a drowsy and sad state? --he does not know.

And he also remembered that he had indeed done what Li Miaoqing said was worse than a beast in the clubhouse.Even though nothing like this happened yesterday, what qualifications does he have to refute?

"What are you still standing there for? Let me go immediately! If you don't leave, if he doesn't call the police, I'll call the police and I'll tell you the fuck! You son of a bitch... I brought you home for the New Year's Eve dinner. You are really a farmer and a snake... You ...You... I am used to seeing playboys and bastards like you." The more Li Miaoqing said, the more angry she became, and it happened that there were few people on the road, and almost no one passed by, so she scolded more and more unscrupulously, pointing at He Yu and scolding, "Old lady—I'm used to seeing you dudes! You know how to play tricks on people's hearts!"

"Auntie, I didn't want to play with him..."

"You still have the face to say you didn't play?...Okay...Okay! Tell me, you sat at the entrance of our alley on New Year's Eve, did you have intentions to prevent him from going down the steps on purpose? have to bring you back?"

"..." He Yu's lips trembled, but he couldn't argue, "Yes..."

Li Miaoqing became even angrier.

"Did you see that he is good-looking, and you can't let it go, and you have long wanted to chase him to provoke him, pester him and never let go, and force him to be nice to you?"

He Yu said softly: "...Yes."

Li Miaoqing was trembling all over: "Then tell me—that night, the night of New Year's Eve, did you take advantage of Xiao Xie's ex-wife to come back, he felt uncomfortable, and you were on New Year's Eve...you...you seduced him, You coaxed him...you...you took advantage of the danger to rob him, you coaxed him to lose it to you that night, you bullied him for a whole night, didn't you!"

He Yu's lips trembled, but he couldn't argue: "...Yes...but..."

"It's nothing!" Li Miaoqing slapped him angrily, "Bastard! Ximen Qing is not as beastly as you! Open your eyes and see! He's a man! He's your elder! Do you want to attack him? Face! Ah? You’re still a thing!!”

He Yu didn't want to explain anything.

He just said in a hoarse voice: "I... I want to see him again... okay? He, is he okay?"

"What are you looking at? It's best if he doesn't have you! It's fine if he doesn't see you!" Li Miaoqing sternly said, "Go back now, get out of the way! I'm his godmother! I'll take good care of you He, I can't help you here to continue to come and go when you call him, play and bully him all the time! What's the matter? After the humiliation is over, I feel regretful, I haven't played enough, come to chase and make up again? !"

He Yu was really wronged to the extreme.

When did he abandon Xie Qingcheng from beginning to end?

How dare Xie Qing come and go as soon as he is called?

But Li Miaoqing was so angry that her eyes were spitting fire, He Yu didn't know how to calm her down and explain all this to her.

In fact, his own heart was already broken, and only relying on his little desire to protect Xie Qingcheng, he insisted on doing what Xie Qingcheng asked him to do before he left—to calm himself down and not be controlled by the disease .

He was able to persevere only by relying on this sentence, standing in front of Li Miaoqing like a normal person.

Li Miaoqing's willow eyebrows raised angrily, straight into her temples: "Are you fucking still not leaving?"

He Yu opened his mouth, but finally couldn't say anything, he was silent for a while, and said to Li Miaoqing with red eyes: "Auntie...then you...take good care of him...if...if he needs me, if he has something If you need it, you can contact me, okay? I'll give you my phone number..."

He doesn't care how Li Miaoqing reacts, this is his final bottom line.

He forced her his number, then turned his head and left very tiredly and lonely.
