Wuthering Heights fans with his sister

Edgar has already determined in his heart that Heathcliff's escape is inseparable from his sister.

The motive of my sister writing to warn Hindley to treat Heathcliff kindly is unclear, but it is enough to show that the nigger already has a certain status in her heart.

but……

What makes Edgar elusive is that Bella and Heathcliff have only met in the church a few times before. Is this kind of concern a little too much?The stable boy who helped run the errands and delivered the mail was a deaf and dumb child. Bella always took good care of him, and their relationship was very close.The kid listened to Bella very much, and the two often played together for a long time.

Therefore, even if he is not a deaf-mute boy, it is estimated that no more information can be obtained from him.

The content of the letter, seriously, is not a big deal, but Edgar is very uncomfortable with his sister taking care of a boy like that.

In fact, Bella would make him uncomfortable with any man who might be his brother-in-law!Speaking of going to school, although it is a girls' school, there are always other boys in it.What's more, after going to school, even if she picks her up every day, even if she arranges for a teacher to take care of her at school, there is no 100% guarantee that Bella will not get in touch with that black boy!

What if the two of them met in secret and really eloped? !

His Bella was still so young, he couldn't and didn't dare to imagine the scene where Bella walked up to him holding another man's hand and said, "Brother, this is my lover." It would probably kill him.

No, those men must find a way to stop them!

Edgar took a deep breath and knocked on his sister's door: "Bella, are you asleep?"

Fang Meng was lying on the bed reading the album, and immediately jumped up to open the door when he heard Edgar's voice: "Brother, are you done?"

"I'm done~ come and see our little princess, did you just read the picture book on the bed?" Edgar stroked Fang Meng's hair, saw his sister nodding and smiled and said, "Be careful of eye pain."

Fang Meng pouted.

Edgar laughed out loud, my sister is so cute!

"Brother, do you have something to say to me?" Fang Meng sat on the edge of the bed and tilted her head to look at Edgar. She had told the handsome butler just now that she was going to bed, so it was impossible for Edgar not to know.

It must not be a trivial matter that would cause Edgar to disturb his sister's sleep!

Fang Meng thought in her heart, what could happen?

"Bella, I know you are looking forward to going to school, but tomorrow...we have to go back to Thrushcross Grange." Edgar spoke slowly, seeing his sister's expression changed from bewildered to puzzled, he quickly held her hand to comfort her: "It's very Unfortunately, you can't report. I know you are having a hard time accepting it. It's too sudden. I understand, and I'm sorry. You tell my brother what you want to learn, and I'll invite the best teacher to teach you at home, okay? ?”

Fang Meng shook her head to express her doubts: "Why, brother, we just arrived in Birmingham today!"

Edgar just smiled: "Do you believe in brother?"

Fang Meng nodded.

Edgar kissed the back of his sister's hand: "Then listen to brother."

The declarative sentence is the meaning of this.

Fang Meng was lying on the bed, looking at Edgar's back when he went out, his heart was in a mess, what could not be the reason?I finally got out of the house, why don't I go back now?

The author has something to say: Thanks to the little angels who have been scoring for me? ('ε')

☆、Chapter 21

Fang Meng stared and tossed and turned all night without falling asleep.

Edgar's recent appearance is really a bit abnormal. First, he suddenly promised himself that he could go to school, but now he changed his mind and wanted to go home after arriving at the place one night.

Isn't this in line with Edgar's usual methodical way of doing things?

When did he become so arbitrary and fickle?

In the past, he would follow his sister's wishes, and even if he had to decide something, he would greet him in advance, instead of giving an order to inform, he would discuss it patiently.

Did something happen but I didn't notice?

The light in the room gradually brightened, Fang Meng got up and got out of bed, opened a corner of the lace curtain, and looked at the slowly waking street outside the building, the turmoil in his heart gradually subsided.

Let's go for a walk, Fang Mengmeng, Edgar said that he will explain the business here in the morning, and he will set off after lunch, so it shouldn't matter if he goes out for a stroll, right?

It's just that he probably can't tell Edgar, otherwise he will definitely send a handsome butler and a carriage to drive him around the city and finish the job.

Thinking about going out shopping alone, Fang Meng temporarily put his troubles behind him, ran to the suitcase, and dug out a set of men's clothes he stole.It was a gift from Edgar. Fang Meng was once "driven crazy" because of the difficulty of tying her skirt. Later, he gave her a set of men's clothes that fit well every month, in case she was in a bad mood and didn't want to wear a skirt.

After a simple wash and change of clothes, he braided his hair into braids and coiled it around his head, put on his hat, and leaned on a cane, looking like a beautiful son-in-law.

Fang Meng whistled softly at the mirror, turned around and walked out with her cane in her arms.

At this point, no one should have woken up. Fang Meng lightly pushed open the door, and saw the maids who had started cleaning outside the corridor with wide eyes.

Inhumane!It's just dawn!

A maid saw her lady protruding her head and looking around the door, shaking her head and sighing in distress, thinking that the master needed something, so she stepped forward and asked, "Miss, is there anything to do so early?"

Fang Meng opened the corner of her mouth and smiled: "I'm fine, I just can't sleep. Is brother up?"

"Not yet. If you have something to do, you can tell the butler. The butler should be in the kitchen right now. Do you need me to call him up?"

"Don't bother!" Fang Meng immediately refused aloud, and then explained embarrassingly, "Brother sleeps late, let him rest more, don't bother him. Don't call the housekeeper, you are busy with your work, I will do it myself Go around the room."

The maid went back to her work in a daze.

Fang Meng came out of the room, pretended to visit the house, and went downstairs smoothly.

In the lobby downstairs, there were still a bunch of people busy coming and going. Fang Meng looked around and found that the door was still closed.It seemed that he couldn't go through the main entrance. Fang Meng pouted and followed a little girl with a vase to the backyard. The little girl cut flowers in the backyard and put them in the vase in her arms.

Fang Meng saw a door open in the corner, and saw the fat chef standing inside the door with his hips akimbo and said to the outside: "No, these are not very fresh! Today is different from before. My master is here. You can't take the old ones." Inferior products are fooling me!"

An old voice sounded outside the door: "My God! I swear to God, these ingredients are all fresh! Look at this fish, it's still alive and kicking!"

Fang Meng felt very novel. When she was in Thrushcross Villa, everything she saw, including food and clothing, was ready-made. She almost forgot that there are still things in the world that require bargaining and hard work.

☆、Chapter 22

When the chef left the corner gate, only he and the little girl were left in the backyard, but the little girl didn't seem to know Fang Meng, and occasionally looked at him curiously and ignorantly when arranging flowers.

Fang Meng smiled at her, and the little girl blushed in a panic and turned her head.

Finally, the little girl who finished arranging flowers also left the backyard.

Fang Meng breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and made sure there was no one there, so she quickly flashed out from the corner door with a cane in one hand and lowered hat brim in the other.

After running along the main road for a while, Fang Meng couldn't help laughing at this "escape".

Finally, you don't have to play the role of a good sister and a good daughter, you can walk however you want!

Fang Meng put one hand in his pocket and turned his cane with the other. His steps were so brisk that he felt like he could fly.

At this point, there weren't many shops open on the street. She walked while remembering the way, watching the sky above her head brighten, humming a tune in a good mood.

Turning around a street, passing a bakery, the strong aroma filled his nose, Fang Meng sniffed, touching the gold coins in his pocket, hesitant to enter the shop.I never had the experience of shopping alone before, so I was a little uncertain about the business situation here. I only knew that gold coins should be very valuable.

Xu Shi stood at the door for too long, and the clerk inside quickly greeted him: "Hi, what would you like...Miss Linton!"

Fang Meng looked up at the black-haired and dark-skinned boy in front of him and exclaimed, "Heath...Master Earnshaw?! Why are you here?" Isn't it? !I just felt that this world is another real world of fireworks, and in a blink of an eye, the hero is sent out to remind me that this is still the world in the book, God!You are too good at playing!

"I've been an apprentice here for a while. But why did Miss Linton come to Birmingham?" Heathcliff scratched his head and wondered.

Apprenticeship?Escaped from Wuthering Heights?In the original book, Heathcliff escaped once, and after that time, he came back and became the "revenge Heathcliff".

So, this trip also witnessed the hero's growth and family history by the way? !But when did he escape, and how did he come so far alone?

Fang Meng was caught off guard by the huge amount of information, she scratched her ears to answer the male lead's question: "Ah~ I came out to play with my brother, and I'm going back today."

"You brothers and sisters have such a good relationship!" Heathcliff said enviously, "Cathy has always wanted to leave Wuthering Heights and come out to have a look."

"There will be a chance." Fang Meng pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled dryly, he was really not used to talking to the male lead like this.

"Yes, it will definitely come true." Heathcliff smiled with a firm expression.

Fang Meng was stunned. Aside from what the male lead did later, he did treat the female lead wholeheartedly, from childhood to adulthood, from birth to death, even though he used the wrong method.

In this regard, the heroine in the original book is very lucky. She won the hearts of two outstanding men with her true temperament, which is enough to make people enviable.

"Heathcliff! Why are you chatting there if you don't come over to help?! You'll be too busy later!" A fat, white, middle-aged woman in the store shouted towards this direction.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I interrupted your work, uh... I'm leaving now." Seeing the embarrassment flashing across Heathcliff's face, Fang Meng opened his mouth while holding his hat. The hero probably didn't want others to see him now look like.

"Hein is like this, don't worry about her. I saw you stood at the door for a long time just now, are you going to buy bread?" Heathcliff asked.

"No, no, I'm just curious..." Fang Meng denied it firmly, "Then, I won't disturb your work, I'll go first..." Before she finished speaking, the raindrops from the sky blocked her mouth.

"Come in, there aren't many customers at this point, it's just that we may be messy as we prepare for the opening of the store, but I can find a clean place in the lounge for you to sit for a while."

"Looks like I have no other choice."

"Why don't you look after him?! How dare you, how can you give him a chance to let him run away? Damn it!" Edgar clenched his fists and shouted at the tall man opposite, "It's all right now, Bella is gone, If they had agreed to meet, they would probably have already left here by boat!"

The rain outside the window has been falling non-stop since the morning, and the air pressure of the whole house has also become low and depressing with the dark clouds in the sky.

All the servants stood in a row tensely, watching their master furiously walking up and down in the middle of the hall, their hearts were agitated. The master was always gentle and calm, and this was the first time he lost his composure.

"Ed, can you calm down first? I said it was an accident. It was raining that night. Who would think of going out in a rainstorm? It's not like you! Where did that calm and wise Edgar go?" Hind Li was on the road for several days, and finally arrived at the destination, thinking that he could sit down and catch his breath, but Edgar grabbed his collar and punched him, and then he questioned him like a storm.God, that little Isabella can really toss!

"Calm and wise?! Are you telling me to calm down now? My sister, the baby I held in my hand is gone with that nigga in your family!" Edgar stroked his hair and fell back on the bed On the sofa, he tapped his forehead nervously with his hands.

"You don't know if it's true. What if it's just a coincidence that they weren't together?" Hindley answered wearily.

"Enough! Isn't that clear enough?" Edgar covered his face with his hands, and his emotions gradually calmed down. "Severn! Didn't you say to send someone out to look for it? No news yet?"

"Master, we have contacted the guards and have arranged for people to search all over the city. There is no news yet."

Hindley couldn't take it anymore, walked over and patted Edgar on the shoulder and said, "Trust your little one, she won't do stupid things, okay? She's so smart!"

"No, you don't understand, she never went out alone, I..." Edgar didn't dare to think about it.

"Master! Miss is found!" A stable boy hurried in from the outside and said out of breath.

"Where is it?" Everyone greeted them and asked.

"It's just around the corner from the bakery," replied the stable boy. "We always thought the lady had gone far, but in fact she may not have gone half a mile."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Edgar was full of surprises and was about to go out immediately. Hindley grabbed him and said with a smile, "Are you sure you want to go in your nightgown?"

Fang Meng ate the freshly baked bread deliciously. The rain outside showed no sign of stopping, and she was not in a hurry. She wanted to ask the boss for an umbrella at first, but then saw that they were busy spinning around like a spinning top, so she decided I'm sorry to bother you, and it's quite interesting to see so many different kinds of guests.Besides, sitting here, having sweet bread to eat and delicious milk to drink, is a good morning.

Heathcliff came in from the outside and brought Fang Meng a new piece of bread.

Fang Meng laughed loudly: "I have eaten enough!"

"You'll pay anyway, won't you?" said Heathcliff cheerfully, winking.

The male protagonist who is not blackened is unexpectedly cold and cute.

Fang Meng laughed backwards, the hat fell on the ground, Heathcliff came over and picked it up and handed it to Fang Meng.

Fang Meng raised the bread in her hand, and Heathcliff casually put the hat on her head.

"Bella!"

There was a sudden shout of anger outside the door, Fang Meng and Heathcliff turned their heads to look, and saw Edgar rushing in with a cold face.

Fang Meng didn't understand, so: "Brother, you..."

Edgar didn't answer, walked in and grabbed Fang Meng and walked out.

☆、Chapter 23

Fang Meng changed out of men's clothes and put on a foreign dress casually.

She was a little worried about the male lead.

Not only because of Edgar's cold expression, but also because of Hindley's appearance.

Edgar doesn't like Heathcliff, but due to his status as an outsider, he can't do anything other than be cold-faced.

But Hindley is different. Hindley is the male protagonist's brother in name, and he has plenty of ways and "rights" to deal with Heathcliff who hasn't grown up yet.

However, it stands to reason that if he doesn't like it, he should be left to fend for himself outside.In the original book, Wuthering Heights didn't spend so much time sending people to find the male lead, let alone Hindley personally ran out to find someone, it's just...unbelievable!

Fang Meng didn't believe Hindley's nonsense about "brotherly love". If brotherly love was true, would the hero run away?

God, what is going on in this plot?

Fang Meng tugged at her skirt irritably, at this moment there was a knock on the door, Fang Meng scratched her hair and said, "Please come in."

Three maids came in, with tears still on their faces.

Fang Meng got up and asked, "Why are you crying like this? What happened?" She turned her head to look carefully, and found that two people looked familiar. After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized, "Ah~ We talked at the door of the room this morning. And you, the little girl who arranged flowers in the backyard."

As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them cried even harder.

Fang Meng was puzzled, so he hurriedly took out his handkerchief and handed it to them: "If you have something to say, I can help you." To be able to come up to find him like this must be asking for something.

Fang Meng wanted to help them wipe their tears, but the two girls covered their faces and wept.

Seeing that they were so sad that they couldn't communicate at all, Fang Meng had no choice but to look at the tall maid beside her who was still calm.

The tall maid wiped her tears: "Miss, the reason why we took the risk to find you is because the young master wants to fire them both... But Ella and Jana, they can't lose this job. Moreover, because of family matters, they They all received their salaries in advance, and now they are still in debt... If they lose their jobs, they can only go to... the store in the back street! They are still young, and Jena is only ten years old. If they go to that kind of place... in the future I'm afraid it's not easy to get married..."

Although what she said was cryptic, Fang Meng could roughly guess what the situation in the back street was like.

Fang Meng stroked the little girl's back and said: "It's okay, I'm here, I won't let you go to that kind of place. I promise, okay? Now, can you tell me why brother did this? ?”

"Because I...saw Miss in the backyard this morning, but I didn't tell the housekeeper, nor did I stop Miss." The little girl sobbed.

Fang Meng's head exploded with a bang, and she frowned in disbelief: "This...is just making trouble for no reason! That's my fault, and it has nothing to do with you?" She rubbed her eyebrows and said to another girl who was crying sadly Say, "So, you're going to be fired because you spoke to me at the door this morning and didn't respond to tell the housekeeper?"

Seeing the girl nodding, Fang Meng stroked her forehead and took a few steps back to support the dressing table and said, "Don't worry, I won't let Edgar do this, trust me."

Edgar, what has become of you?

After Fang Meng combed her hair, she went downstairs to the door of the study. Hindley and Edgar were discussing things inside. She twisted the handle and opened the door without thinking.

Inside the house, Edgar was yelling at Hindley: "I don't care! You find a way to send him away, the farther the better!"

After hearing this, Fang Meng leaned against the doorframe and asked with a smile, "Who do you want to send away?"

Edgar was stunned, and smiled at Fang Meng unnaturally: "Bella, why did you come down? It's not that you didn't sleep well last night, why don't you sleep for a while?"

Fang Meng looked at the tired Hindley: "Mr. Earnshaw must be very tired, right? Why don't you go to rest?"

Seeing this, Hindley quickly walked down the steps and said, "Yes, yes, I'm so sleepy! I'll go back to my room to catch up on sleep."

After Hindley went out, Fang Meng closed the door, stared at Edgar, who was still handsome and gentle, and asked, "Are you still my brother, Edgar?"

Edgar didn't know why, but he still smiled and stepped forward to hug Fang Meng gently and said, "Of course, my dear Bella, I will always be your brother."

Fang Meng lay on Edgar's shoulder and smelled a faint smell of tobacco on him.

She frowned. Did Edgar start smoking?

When I was a child, Linton's father smoked in the house, and Fang Meng was choked to tears. Later, there was a smoking room at home.

And Edgar swore he would never smoke because his dear sister didn't like it.

Fang Meng turned his head to look at Edgar. The edges and corners of his side face were already very clear, and his Adam's apple became more prominent, and he looked more and more like a man.

Do people have secrets when they grow up?

Fang Meng said sullenly: "Brother, don't fire those two girls, I was wrong about what happened in the morning, please don't involve anyone who has nothing to do with it."

☆、Chapter 24

Edgar finally promised with a helpless expression that he would not dismiss the two maids, but he still had to deduct their salaries for one year as punishment.

Fang Meng didn't fight anymore, and she divided the gold coins she had saved for the sake of looking good to the two girls equally.

Although Edgar still had that gentle smile on his face, Fang Meng knew that there were some things between the two of them, and he would never obey his sister's orders again.

During dinner, seeing that there were only three sets of tableware on the table, Fang Meng said to Sai Wen who was standing beside him: "Mr. Sai Wen, bring another set of tableware, and please...forget it, I will get it myself. "

She got up and pretended not to see the flicker of shock and anger on Edgar's and Hindley's faces.

You two, I have worked so hard to gain favor with the hero for you, but how did you make the hero hate you? I really can't stop worrying.

Heathcliff's room was arranged on the first floor, and Fang Meng ran to knock on the door with her skirt in hand.

"Come in."

The male protagonist's voice sounds sad?

Fang Meng pushed open the door and tried her best to smile brightly: "Heather, dinner is ready!"

In the morning, I had a good chat with the male lead, and he even allowed Fang Meng to call him Heather. This kind of benign progress in the relationship made her very happy.

"I don't have an appetite, Bella, go ahead and eat, and leave me alone." Heathcliff sat up from the bed, rubbing the corners of his eyes and said.

"What's the matter? Is it because Hindley wants to arrest you and go back? Otherwise, I'll help you escape again, if you really don't want to go back." After Fang Meng returned to Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff's life might be difficult. Even more sad, the words blurted out in a moment of excitement.

Heathcliff shrugged with a wry smile, but did not answer.

"Are you blaming me? Although it was an accident that I met you, Hindley and his brother did find you because they were looking for me, so you are blaming me, right?" Fang Meng asked tentatively, to confirm whether the male lead was there Hate yourself for it.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood, Bella Hindley, he came looking for me, I know all this is just a coincidence, you are not wrong, I will not blame you." Heathcliff paused for a while , "Actually, I have to thank you. If you hadn't come, Hindley wouldn't have found me so soon."

Fang Meng heard a question mark on his face: "Uh... what does this mean?"

"It's Cathy, she's sick, very ill. Hindley told me that Cathy... Cathy has been running a high fever, talking nonsense, and saying she wants to see me one last time... and it's all my fault! I shouldn't be angry If I hadn't run away that night, Cathy wouldn't have gone looking for me in the moor, and if she didn't look for me, she wouldn't have fallen ill from the rain, and wouldn't have..." Heathcliff couldn't go on, He tugged at his hair in pain.

Fang Meng suddenly remembered that after the hero ran away, the heroine did get seriously ill because of the rain. Could it be that this is the end of the plot?I remember that the heroine was ill at that time and was recuperating in Thrushcross Villa.

She recovered from the plot, stepped forward and held the male protagonist's hair-stretching hand: "Don't do this, Miss Catherine will be fine." I am afraid that no matter how I comfort myself, I will appear pale and powerless.

"Miss, Master asked me to invite you and Master Earnshaw to dinner." Seven suddenly appeared at the door.

Heathcliff withdrew his hand, and the other party dreamed, "Go and eat."

Fang Meng sat down next to him, folded his arms and said to Seven, "Mr. Seven, can I trouble you to bring our meals here? Heather and I will eat together."

Seeing the back of Seven taking the tray away, Edgar threw away the knife and fork in his hand angrily, and said to Hindley: "Look! Do you think I can bear him staying in front of me? After eating, Go out and find a hotel!"

Hindley sighed heavily: "It's just two boys, this is still at your house, I don't know what you are worrying about? Also, Ed, can you be reasonable, where can I find it at night? Hotel? I'm not like you, I know the way here."

"Is that guy a hairy kid? Look at his size, he's stronger than you! Besides, you heard what Seven said just now, Bella held that guy's hand and called him 'Heather'! My God! I feel like my head is going to split."

Hindley forked a piece of strawberry into his mouth, echoed: "Yeah, I can't figure it out, I am such a handsome and handsome man, your sister turns a blind eye, but is so affectionate to a dirty black boy, Suspicious! Really suspicious!" Seeing Edgar's fierce gaze, Hindley hurriedly said seriously: "In my opinion, you still think too much, and I think this incident is just a coincidence. You see, he didn't I don't know that you are going to leave that day, but it is because of the rain that the guards are lax and give him a chance to escape. Besides, he is alone on the road, and of course he is faster than you. You have to take care of the one who has never traveled far along the way. Sister Jiao, it must be much slower. Most of the routes do not overlap, and there is no possibility for such two people to communicate with each other! It’s just that the destinations coincidentally are the same.”

☆、Chapter 25

study.

Hindley exhaled a smoke ring, narrowed his eyes and said to Edgar, who was fidgeting, "Okay, they're just chatting in the room, you don't have to be like an enemy, do you?"

Edgar glanced at Hindley with disgust: "Didn't I tell you not to smoke in my study?"

"Are you serious?"

"Of course, Bella doesn't like the smell of smoke."

Hindley rolled his eyes and said earnestly, "Ed, you have to understand that your life doesn't have to revolve around Isabella."

"It's none of your business."

Hindley pouted, staring at the lights outside the window and said with emotion: "Catherine and I will never be like your brothers and sisters, because of Heathcliff, it is even difficult for us to sit down to have a peaceful breakfast, act like a baby, and give each other gifts Those are luxuries."

People who have always been noisy suddenly become so emotional, which is also quite catchy.

Edgar knew about Catherine's illness, so he sat down and comforted him: "She will be fine."

"You won't understand my feelings... She will only give in to me if she is so sick, or for another person. You don't know, when she said to me with a pale face: 'Brother, I'm going to find my father Mom, before I leave, I just want to see you and Heather live together, brother, please bring Heather back...', I burst into tears after hearing this. At that moment, I really I hope father never brought that child back." Hindley said with red eyes.

Edgar joked, "I thought you only loved money."

"Fuck you! That's my only sister!" Hindley stopped, took a puff on his cigarette, and continued, "I know you'd like to throw that kid into the Pacific Ocean right now, and why wouldn't I? But, now for Catherine, I had to pretend. Mr. Kenneth said that Catherine was suffering from a heart attack, and I hope that after seeing that boy, she can return to her previous lively appearance as soon as possible."

"It's good that you understand, if he is still useful, I would have the guards arrest him at noon." Edgar knocked on the desk and smiled coldly.

"By the way, does Isabella know about your marriage to the eldest daughter of the Kenneth family?" Hindley remembered Edgar asking Seven to personally apologize to Miss Kenneth at noon.

"No, I didn't tell Bella."

"Isn't it? Are you sure you don't need to tell her about such an important matter? If Isabella knows that her dear brother keeps this kind of thing from her, tsk tsk, I don't know how sad it will be."

"I didn't say it because I was afraid that she would be sad. Tell me, what if Bella knows about Kenneth's existence and thinks I don't love her anymore?" Edgar asked seriously.

Hindley's mouth twitched: "I think your worries are unnecessary."

☆、Chapter 26

After Fang Meng walked out of Heathcliff's room, her face became serious.

In the original text, Catherine was taken to Thrushcross Grange for recuperation shortly after she fell ill, and then she recovered, but Linton and his wife unfortunately contracted a fever and both died.

Fang Meng bit her nails and walked upstairs absent-mindedly.

Damn it, according to what Heathcliff said, Hindley came out to find him in person to fulfill Catherine's wish, and her parents had kindly brought Catherine to Thrushcross Grange.

Hell, left and right just can't escape this plot!

I thought that Edgar could perfectly avoid this plot if he didn't fall in love with Catherine, but in the end, he still had to come back here.So, as long as Heathcliff escapes, Catherine will get sick and be sent to Thrushcross Grange?

Fang Meng was downcast, and the irritability in his heart could not be suppressed no matter what.

"Bella!"

Edgar stood at the door of the study, his face hidden in the shadows, and his expression was indistinguishable.

Fang Meng forced a smile: "What's the matter, brother?"

"Can I talk to you?"

"Brother, I'm tired, and I want to go back to my room to rest." For some reason, Fang Meng felt that Edgar looked a little scary at this time, and she instinctively didn't want to get close.Besides, because of Linton's parents, her mind is in a mess now, and she just wants to go back to her room and lie down for a while.

Edgar chuckled, then strode over and grabbed Fang Meng's arm, and pulled him into the study and closed the door.

Fang Meng broke away from Edgar's hand, rubbed his wrist that he had squeezed vigorously, and said angrily, "Edgar, what are you doing?"

Edgar kept his back to Fang Meng, and it was said that he slammed the table a few times: "Now I don't even call my brother, that black guy is really so good?! You chatted with him in the room all night, now Your dear brother came to talk to you, and you said you were tired? Bella, why? What happened?"

"I still want to ask you what happened. You have been acting weird these days, and you seem to be a different person! Besides, you have started smoking, right?" Seeing Edgar turning around to explain, Fang Meng hurriedly Gestures to stop him, "It's okay, Ed, whether it's for business or entertainment, I have no problem with you smoking. Compared to this, what I'm worried about is that you suddenly behaved like this these days." It’s very different from before, is there anything bothering you? Listen, Ed, you don’t have to embarrass yourself too much about business matters, and there’s dad!” Speaking of dad, Fang dreamed that he didn’t know that Linton’s dad could do it this time. Unable to make it through, my heart ached and I couldn't help my nose sore.

"You don't trust me, do you?" Edgar was silent for a while, then spoke quietly.

"what?"

"I don't smoke! I promised you that I wouldn't smoke, so I would never touch it! I never broke my promise to you, but you don't believe me?" Edgar stroked his face with both hands, with a painful expression on his face.

Fang Meng didn't follow his train of thought, and stood at the door in a daze, at a loss for what to do.

"You don't believe me! You have to stay away from me! Go get close to that black boy of unknown origin!" Edgar stood up abruptly and grabbed Fang Meng's shoulder and shouted.

Fang Meng was taken aback. Seeing Edgar out of control like this, she was terrified: "Ed! Let me go! Are you crazy?"

Heathcliff who rushed over upon hearing the sound broke open the door, separated the two of them, protected Fang Meng behind him and said, "Bella, are you alright?"

Fang Meng didn't react yet, but just nodded numbly, she looked over Heathcliff's shoulder to look at Edgar, that gentle handsome face was covered with haze at the moment.

Seeing his sister's eyes like looking at a stranger, Edgar's heart tightened: "Bella, don't look at me with that kind of eyes, please."

☆、Chapter 27

Fang Meng leaned her head against the car wall, staring blankly at the speeding scenery outside the window.

She and Edgar hadn't spoken a word since that night in the study, and even if there was unexpected eye contact, the two would quickly look away.

That feeling is even more distant than strangers.

It turns out that distrust is such a devastating force.

But, Edgar, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I can't tell you what I'm going through right now.

How can I tell you that your world is a book and I am a person from another world?

How can I convince you that what I did was to change the course of the story?

And now, what should I say to make you understand that the change I thought was nothing to the main plot line?

"Bella, are you okay?" Hindley sat next to Fang Meng from the seat opposite, "You look terrible, like a kitten abandoned by its owner."

Speaking of which, Hindley glanced at Edgar opposite, Edgar looked down at the book without saying a word.

"I'm fine." Fang Meng said weakly.

"Little liar who doesn't mean what he says!" Hindley tugged at Fang Meng's curly hair with a smile. He didn't believe that Edgar would be indifferent!

As it turned out, Edgar was indeed indifferent, he didn't even lift his head.

"Ah! Hindley! What's wrong with you?!" Fang Meng slapped Hindley's hand off angrily in pain, knocked on the compartment to signal the driver to stop, and when the car came to a complete stop, she opened the door and was about to jump down.

Hindley quickly hugged Fang Meng by the waist: "Okay, okay, I apologize, don't go down, it just rained, be careful that the mud on the ground will stain your beautiful shoes!"
