Chapter 37 The Past 2
As soon as Aunt Man's words fell, a hot wind suddenly blew outside the window and rolled up a corner of the curtains. The dark shadow that rose with the wind was mottled on her face. She could not see whether it was cloudy or sunny. In a trance, she stood up and stood at the window in the wind. The curtain rolled up and down with the wind, like the dark clouds outside the window at noon, which filled the sky in an instant. .
Aunt Man's lips moved slightly and seemed to cry and said to herself: "That was three years later. That day was originally the most ordinary day. I made an appointment with a friend to meet in a cafe. It was after three o'clock in the afternoon. When I got home, I found that the two sisters fell into a pool of blood, and the blood on the ground wet the whole courtyard. A strange man She half knelt next to Meng Jia's body, holding her head tightly in one hand, and clenching the handle of the knife soaked in blood in the other hand, the murder weapon right in her chest...
As if I was possessed, I quickly threw away my bag and rushed to pick up Daiyun like crazy, but she had no breath, and then turned to see Mengqi. I roared at him and asked why the man killed Mengqi and why...
He just kept wailing. I rushed over and was about to hit him. The man suddenly raised his head and stared at me fiercely. I will never forget his desperate eyes. Bloody hatred reflected in his enlarged pupils. He actually asked me, "Where's the child?" Yes, the child, I just realized that Xiaoye and Xiaolan are no longer in the room.
In order to find the child, I had to not argue with him for the time being. Because we found that there were signs of being hit on the back door of the foreign building, we tracked and searched separately. Out of the back door, he went to the west, and I walked along the east garden for a long time, and finally found Xiaolan crying in the haystack. When I took Xiaolan back to look for it again, I could no longer find the man, and Xiaoye..."
The wind swept through the curtains, threw it on the wall and window, and snapped!
The dark clouds outside the window turned over the ink, and a flash of lightning crossed the sky. Sudden rain came one after another. The bean-sized raindrops hit the glass, splashing countless chaotic splashes...
Aunt Man just stood in the window, with drops of water on her face. I don't know if it's rain or tears...
Bai Shu's mouth suddenly shrank, and she only felt that the pain was unbearable. Over the years, there was a lot of doubts in her heart. She saw that the water was about to come out, but she couldn't bear to hear it again. She dragged her heavy steps and struggled to Aunt Man's side, pulled through the glass window hard, and finally blocked the storm.
Man Yin turned around and slowly raised her slender and thin hand, which was deeply embedded in her arm, and soon became a blue-reined ball. Her voice was still hoarse and low, "Shu'an, I think you have guessed that you are Xiaolan, Dai Yun's daughter. That year when you were 5 years old, I took you out of Yuncheng and returned to Qiuxian Town..."
When Bai Shu'an heard the words, her trembling body suddenly staggered, and tears surged out like a river that broke the dike. She could no longer control her inner emotions. She only threw herself into Aunt Man's arms and cried loudly...
In 15 years, it turned out that the end of the nightmare was the tragic situation of her mother being brutally stabbed to death by the murderer. The lake of blood blocked her memory of her mother, but it could never erase the imprint of this pain.
Aunt Man's warm palm stroked her trembling back over and over again. From childhood to age, whenever she rehearsed for injury and pain, Aunt Man would do the same. She stayed quietly by her side and rubbed her wound with warm palms over and over again: "What a cheerful and lively child you used to be, even the naughty little Ye wanted to let You are chasing and playing with you. But since you witnessed Dai Yun lying in the pool of blood and cold all over that day, you have become no longer laughing and talking. Although you also like dancing, at that time, whenever I ask your mother where you went, you always lower your head quietly, but don't answer... At a young age, you learned to force yourself. I have forgotten..."
Listening to Aunt Man's gradually calm words, Bai Shu'an's mood also calmed down a little. Thinking of the past, her memory was empty: "Yes, I can't remember my mother's appearance at all, and I can't remember Brother Xiaoye's appearance... However, I want to selfishly forget my mother. But my mother doesn't allow me to forget, so I have that nightmare. Month after month, year after year, haunt me. Aunt Man, tell me who it is and who killed my mother?"
"For 15 years, I thought I would never see him again. Oh, maybe it's God's will. Two days ago, I actually saw him at Mayor Zhang's dinner." Aunt Man's voice was very calm, but it made the calm Bai Shu'an suddenly set up the ice cellar.
"What are you talking about?" She raised a pair of red and swollen eyes and stared at Manyin.
"It's the day your mother was killed, the man who knelt next to Meng Yu's body and held a murder weapon in his hand. He didn't recognize me, but I recognized him at a glance. Even if those eyes turned to ashes, I could recognize them.
"Who is he?"
"Luo-Tian-Qi." Lin Manyin was so clear that it came to Bai Shu'an's ears. "It was he who encouraged Zhang Jinyan, the mayor of Yuncheng City, to demolish and build Wang Lao's theater; it was he who made Wang's father and son suspicious, and Wang Lao had a heart attack and died with hatred; it was he who, who held the murder weapon and knelt next to Menghua's body, that was him, Luo's collection The chairman of the group - Luo Tianqi!"
"Luoshi Group, Luoshi Group..." Bai Shu'an muttered to herself, and suddenly her heart tightened, just like suffocating pain, making her body stand unsteady and almost fell to the ground.
*****
"Dong Dong Dong..." Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, which made the two painful people wake up like a dream.
Manyin hurriedly straightened her appearance, raised her hand to wipe off the tears on Shu'an's cheeks, and said solemnly, "Remember, what I said to you today is a secret between us. No one can tell you, including Ruomin, you know?"
Bai Shu'an nodded silently, and Man Yin whispered, "The person outside should be Ruomin. You came to Yuncheng alone, and there was no news. Ruo Min received my call the next day and found that you didn't find me. She was so anxious that she hurried to Yuncheng that day. A few days ago, she went up to the hotel, down to the hotel, and looked for her one street after another... I finally met you yesterday, but you turned a blind eye to him. What happened to you and him?
Bai Shu'an lowered her head, pouted and muttered, "Didn't he tell you what good he had done?"
"If he said it, do I still need to ask you?"
There was another knocking sound outside the door, which was obviously more powerful than the last time.
Seeing her stubbornness, Man Yin couldn't resist after all, so she had to open the door first.
It was indeed Du Ruomin who came in. He held some food in his hands and went straight to the room. Seeing that Bai Shu'an's eyes were red and swollen, Aunt Man also looked sad and cried bitterly.
Ruo Min knew that the two of them had let go of their past, and he was immediately relieved. He walked to Shu'an's eyes, smiled and said softly, "Great, Aunt Man, have forgiven you?"
Bai Shu'an still ignored him and turned around to clean up the cup on the coffee table.
Man Yin smiled helplessly and suddenly said, "Where have you been hiding to play these days? Why don't you come to me?"
Bai Shu'an was the next one. She thought, if Aunt Man knew that she had been with her mother-threate suspect Luo Tianqi's son for so many days, she didn't know what would happen, so she had to grit her teeth and lie and said righteously, "It's all your fault. I didn't let you go anywhere before. I always feel that It's like a frightening bird. It's hard to catch a chance this time. Of course, you have to play happily for a few days. How can you find it so easily?
Ruomin looked at her suspiciously after hearing the words, but Man Yin stared at her silently without saying anything. Bai Shu'an deeply felt that Aunt Man's sharp eyes seemed to be about to break her lies soon. Then she changed her strategy and began to bubble softly. "Okay, okay, I admit that you used to do it for my good. I didn't want anything to happen to me, but now I When I grow up, I'm 20 years old. I don't know what to do and where I can't go. Don't worry, Aunt Man, I know very well.
This trick is really useful. Aunt Man restrained her expression. Although her tone was calm, she finally lost her indifference. "Then why are you willing to come to see me later?
"Later, didn't I see the news of Mr. Wang's sudden death in the newspaper? I thought that Man Yin must be very sad, so I rushed here!"
Man Yin did not answer. Ruo Min bent down slightly and said solemnly to Man Yin, "Aunt Man, just forgive her this time. It's my fault that I didn't take good care of her!"
"Aunt Man!" Finally, she finally used her unique skill and shouted softly. Her body arched into a crescent moon and softly rubbed around Manyin.
Manyin had to raise her hand to slap her on the shoulder. When she fell, her movements were very light. "Next time you dare to do this again, be careful that I will ignore you all my life!"
Bai Shu'an buried her head in her arms and replied happily, "I will never dare to do it again without your permission in the future."
After that, Ruomin sat for a while and talked to Manyin about the group.
After Ruomin left, Man Yin's expression immediately became gloomy and ordered, "Now you can say what happened to you and Ruomin, and why did you run to Yuncheng desperately?"
Bai Shu'an saw that she couldn't hide it anyway, so she had to tell Aunt Man the tragic scene of bumping into a stunning woman leaning on Ruomin's shoulder in Yijiangnan that day.
After listening to this, Aunt Man did not comment and meditated for a long time.
Bai Shu'an couldn't help shouting anxiously, "Aunt Man, is this the reason why you object to me liking Brother Ruomin? Did you already know that he... He has a woman outside?"
"You have lived with him for 12 years like me. You should know what kind of person he is as well as I do."
"Of course I thought I was clear, but that night, I saw him hold a woman in his arms with my own eyes, and he did not deny it. Could it be that my eyes lied to me?
"Ruo Min is elegant, gentle, modest and polite... Each of his advantages is a sharp weapon against women, and his stage image is so perfect. Over the years, there are indeed many women who are fascinated by him outside. However, it is these advantages that at some times have become Ruomin's fatal shortcomings.
In his life, people always make some mistakes from time to time. If he wants to forget, it doesn't mean that the mistake doesn't exist. He even buried the wound deeper and thought he had healed. In the end, he found that the wound had actually festered in his heart and could not extricate himself. Although I don't agree with you being together, he will always be your good brother. You can't forget this. Over the years, you can't turn a blind eye to your care. So, don't be too cruel to him!"
Aunt Man's words were sincere. Shu An carefully tasted it and felt as if she was indebted to him. Yes, if he was a brother, how could he be bad to him? Thinking of this, Bai Shu'an's tangled heart finally found a way out.
