They Regretted it After Their Hearts Turned to Ashes

The evening wind was cooler than usual.

Jian Huaiyi was taken away by Luo Jun for treatment, and the well-trained bodyguards also quickly and silently withdrew.The fireworks were over, leaving no trace in the dark sky.

Luo Zhi rested for a while, and slowly sat up straight.

He couldn't sit still for a while, and stretched out his hands to support the ground again, leaning his shoulders back on the car body.

Luo Zhi took out the phone from his pocket, turned on the screen, and restarted the game.

This time he didn't play very well, and the villain crashed into the subway without running a few hundred meters three times in a row.After finally doing a front flip and jumping onto the roof of the car, a billboard Game Over was photographed head-on, with colorful paint scattered all over the floor.

Luo Zhi didn't care too much.

He exited the game interface, his eyes still on the screen, and patiently waited for the blurred field of vision that was rotated and dislocated to slowly return to its position.

The scattered forehead hair was lifted by the night wind, revealing pale eyebrows soaked in cold sweat.

Luo Zhi closed his eyes, leaned against the body of the car and sat still, cold sweat trickled down the side of his face, and stung the glaring red and swollen wound at the corner of his lips.

After a few minutes like this, Luo Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He raised his hand and rubbed his left ear twice, but there was still a cicada-like noise in it.

……

It wasn't because of Luo Jun's slap.

Luo Zhi was injured in an accident when she was a child, and because she could not be treated in time, this ear was once so severe that she was almost deaf.

Even though he recovered somewhat later, his hearing in the left ear was still less than half of that of ordinary people, and he occasionally suffered from tinnitus, and he couldn't hear anything when it rang out.

Luo Zhi put down his hands, he waited for the severe dizziness caused by the tinnitus to pass, and stood up with the ground supported.

This kind of feeling is not pleasant, once the vertigo occurs, the state of being both heavy and teetering, but also as if the sky is spinning lightly is really painful.

Luo Zhi bent her knuckles and pressed her temples hard.

The shirt was hidden under the windbreaker, wrapping him in a damp and cold way, allowing the cold wind to get in all the way along the collar.

Luo Zhi's whole body seemed to be drenched in cold sweat. He lowered his head to support the station, imagined his current appearance, and couldn't help chuckling.

With this look, the elder brother's eyes are very suitable for the occasion.

It was completely abandoned by the tree trunk and thrown down, let the wind roll in the mud a few times, endured a few rains, and finally squeezed wet on the sidewalk, asking people to step on it, waiting to be swept away. Spread the fallen leaves in a mess.

……

Occasionally, this kind of thought would come up at the same time as the vertigo attack, but when the symptoms passed and the whole person recovered, Luo Zhi always felt that it was a bit exaggerated.

Not so much.

At least he didn't think he should be that bad.

Even if this leaf is thrown away, it can be picked up and used as a bookmark or a sticker. Even if you open a notebook and put it in, it can make it less downcast.

Even if only one person is willing to pick it up, it won't be mixed in a pile of unwanted garbage and thrown into the incinerator.

Luo Zhi took off his soiled windbreaker and threw it into a ball in the back seat. His wet shirt was so cold that he coughed twice.

Luo Zhi lit another cigarette, held the cigarette in his mouth and raised his head.In the slowly dissipating smoke, he opened his eyes and saw the flickering stars all over the sky.

Luo Zhi admired her birthday present for a while.

He didn't return to the car until his whole body was almost frozen, turned on the air conditioner, and lay down on the flat seat.

Luo Zhi rested her arm on her pillow, and pulled a thin blanket over her body.

He lay quietly for a few minutes, raised his eyes and blew lightly, moved his fingers, and turned off the dome light in the car.

……

When I woke up again, it was already noon the next day.

Luo Zhi was entangled in dizziness for half the night, and finally broke free from the long and chaotic dream, and when she opened her eyes, she almost felt as if she had passed away.

He recalled it for a while, but he still couldn't remember whether he was so sleepy that he fell asleep last night, or passed out accidentally.

But the difference is not too big.

Luo Zhi didn't get up immediately, but still maintained the posture of lying on her back.

He fumbled a few times in the small glove box next to the driver's seat, found a piece of chocolate, squeezed the wrapping paper and put it in his mouth.

The mellow and slightly bitter chocolate melts on the tip of the tongue.

Luo Zhi closed her eyes, waiting for that bit of sweetness to completely dissipate in her mouth.

After confirming that the blood sugar had risen almost, Luo Zhi turned to adjust the seat, raising the back of the seat little by little.

He had a fight with Jian Huaiyi in the car last night, or he beat Jian Huaiyi unilaterally.

It seemed that the remodeled seat was still not able to withstand being abused by Quan Wuxing, and it was released with a "click" on the last seat, pushing him to sit up straight suddenly.

Luo Zhi's face suddenly turned pale, and she hastily closed her eyes.

A second before he closed his eyes, his field of vision spun at high speed without warning.

Luo Zhi lost his balance and fell on the steering wheel. He only had time to bend his arms to protect half of his face, and he didn't have the strength to move.The sharp tinnitus pierced through his brain, relentlessly, almost as if he had been driven into his temple with an electric drill.

It took a full 5 minutes before Luo Zhi finally got over this innocent disaster, and gropingly raised his hand to lower the car window.

The fresh air outside the window poured into the car, making him more energetic, and his body and mind became refreshed.

Luo Zhi sighed in comfort, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead on his sleeve.

……

I don't know if it's his illusion, but the recent tinnitus and dizziness seem to be happening more and more frequently.

Luo Zhi drove out last night. He originally wanted to check his body, but was stopped by Jian Huaiyi when he was going out, saying that he had something to say to him.

He didn't have time to go to the hospital until the farce ended.

Go again next time you have time.

Luo Zhi adjusted the seat again, touched the phone, turned on the screen and flipped through it.

After a whole night and half a day passed, there were no missed calls on his mobile phone, only one text message.

The real-name registered game official wished him a happy birthday, and enthusiastically persuaded him to recharge an 888 gift package to get a mysterious gift.

Luo Zhi hadn't received any gifts for some years, he studied the text message for a while, and even had his heart skip a beat for a second.

He hesitated for a while at the payment page, and then sighed, giving up and exiting.

Now is not the time to waste money.

Luo Zhi owns a film and television company that has already been listed. Recently, several opponents joined forces to target it. The stock price has dropped a bit, and it may be time to spend money to buy resources.

Although 880 yuan is a drop in the bucket, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and we cannot fall into this clumsy consumption trap.

Luo Zhi leaned on her arm, deleted the text message, and flicked the phone screen casually.

The Luo family's dinner did not seem to go well.

Jian Huaiyi's injuries were all on the most conspicuous part of his face, no matter how talented a makeup artist was, he couldn't hide it, and people saw the clues when he turned his head, and the rumors naturally followed.

Gossip is probably mostly engraved in the human race's genes. It took Luo Zhi 10 minutes to brush up the outline of the whole farce in Moments.

The head of the Luo family was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke, and he severely reprimanded the eldest young master of the Luo family and young master Jian.

The Luo family claimed that Jian Huaiyi had an accident on the road and was involved in a car accident. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured. The details are still under investigation.

Jian Huaiyi gave a speech at the banquet with injuries, officially taking over part of the Luo family's business.

Jian Huaiyi did not want any shares in the company.

The three children of the Luo family were desperately trying to hide it, and finally managed to fool Mrs. Luo, making her believe that Jian Huaiyi stepped into a ditch and fell while walking at night, and that's why they didn't make a big fuss.

……

Luo Zhi nestled in the seat, rested her fingertips on the last circle of friends, paused for two seconds before swiping upwards.

Of course, "the three children of the Luo family" did not include him, Luo Zhi had known this for a long time, and he was not overwhelmed by this matter.

Many things are getting used to.

No matter how uncomfortable and unbearable it is at the beginning, or as tortured as if a red-hot iron rod was inserted into the body, after getting used to it, it will be nothing more than that.

As for how many cracks are hidden under this habitual calm shell, how many slow-flowing karmic lava that may swallow everything, when will it completely collapse when the last straw falls... No one knows.

At least Luo Zhi still feels numb now.

He didn't feel any discomfort in his body or heart, but out of reason and desire to survive, he still felt that it was best not to return to Luo's house during this time.

The matter was too much trouble, the head of the Luo family has always attached the most importance to the face of the Luo family, and there was no doubt that the real fire was stirred up last night.

Facing the most proud eldest son and the adopted son whom he admired most, Father Luo just severely reprimanded him.If Luo Zhi appeared in front of him, he might be forced to break his leg by the real family law.

Luo Zhi clicked into Luo Cheng's circle of friends, found the family photo shared, and zoomed in to see it.

There are five people in the photo.

Luo Chengxiu is the head of this generation of the Luo family. In Luo Zhi's impression, this man who can only bow his head and call him father is stern and serious, and he may be thrown into the confinement room to kneel and reflect on himself at any time.

Luo's mother's surname is Jian, and her name is Jianrou. The name Jian Huaiyi was changed from Mrs. Luo's surname.

In the photo, Mrs. Luo hugged Jian Huaiyi tightly, her arms were in a paranoid protective posture, as if guarding some lost and recovered treasure.

Besides Luo Jun, beside Jian Huaiyi, there is another girl who looks good and is their sister Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng is 20 years old this year and a sophomore in the city next door. This time, he specially asked for leave to come back to celebrate Jian Huaiyi's birthday. He also secretly designed a fireworks show as a birthday surprise for his brother.

Although there were some unhappy disturbances last night, the family still stayed together affectionately.

Even Luo Chengxiu, who has always been serious, looked at his children with an imperceptible gentleness in his expression.

Luo Zhi saved the photo.

He was about to put down his phone when an incoming call suddenly popped up on the screen.

Seeing the notes on the call, Luo Zhi couldn't help but startled.

... Luo Cheng's phone call.

Luo Zhi held the phone, but didn't answer it right away.

He lowered his eyes, looking at the note thoughtfully, his slender, pale fingers hung in front of the screen, slightly froze without even being aware of it.

Maybe it was the family photo that gave him some unrealistic fantasies... At a certain moment, Luo Zhi actually wondered if it was possible to mention a birthday in this phone call.

Luo Zhi quickly put an end to this idea rationally.

He connected the phone: "Xiao Cheng? What's the matter—"

"Luo Zhi." The voice of the girl on the other side of the phone was cold, "My second brother and I are at the film and television company."

She seemed to be stingy with saying an extra word, but said concisely: "Come here, Dad wants to see you."
