Human Greed - Chapter 79

Xu Ruoxing looked around and saw Su Yi in the corner. Su Yi and Li Chen were sitting face to face. The table was full of empty wine bottles and cups. After a rough look, there were at least twenty glasses. Xu Ruoxing frowned and walked to Su Yi. Yi asked beside her, “What happened to her?”

She thought it was Li Chen who drank it, but most of it was in Su Yi’s stomach.

Su Yi saw her come back to her senses, her eardrums were prickly in pain, bulging and vibrating, as if someone was beating her ear with a hammer, it was swelling, painful and noisy, Xu Ruoxing saw that Su Yi sat down without saying a word, and asked with his ear: “Li Chen What’s wrong?”

It was already evening, and there were more and more people swarming on the dance floor, with swaying figures and charming eyes, Su Yi said: “She drank too much.”

Xu Ruoxing didn’t know what to do, and said to Su Yi: “Go home first.”

Talking about pulling Suyi, she didn’t pull it. Su Yi looked down at the hand that was holding her tightly, and then looked up at Xu Ruoxing. Several memories were repeated, and her temples throbbed and hurt badly.

Seeing her pale face, Xu Ruoxing shouted, “Su Yi?”

Su Yi said: “You help Li Chen, I will go by myself.”

Xu Ruoxing nodded, supported Li Chen to look at Su Yi, walked out, and occasionally her shoulder was bumped, she turned her head to look at Su Yi, Su Yi was always wandering, her eyes were not focused, Xu Ruoxing thought she was drinking too much, after going out , the deafening sound gradually dissipated, Su Yi looked at the people all over the street, and heard Xu Ruoxing say: “Take her back to our house first.”

After finishing speaking, Li Chen retched twice, Xu Ruoxing hurriedly helped her to sit by the flowerbed beside the curb, and asked Li Chen, “Why do you drink so much wine?”

Li Chen didn’t speak, waved his hands, and said calmly, “Ruoxing, you’re here.”

Xu Ruoxing hummed lightly.

Su Yi stood beside them without saying a word, her eyes were full of emotion, it was full of night and dark.

Xu Ruoxing said, “Shall I take you back first?”

Li Chen said, “No, you can take me to the hospital.”

Xu Ruoxing looked at Su Yi, and Su Yi said, “Let her go to the hospital.”

She had no choice but to help Li Chen walk to the hospital. The bar was near the hospital, and it was only a few steps away. After they went in, Li Chen washed his face, sat on the bench outside, and drank the hangover medicine that Xu Ruoxing handed over. After waking up for a while, he said, “You guys also go back early?”

Xu Ruoxing said, “I’ll take you upstairs.”

Li Chen didn’t hold back, nodded, Xu Ruoxing and Su Yi sent Li Chen up, Li Chen originally wanted to sit on the bench outside Su Yuran’s door to rest, but after sitting quietly for a few minutes, he still couldn’t hold back and walked in.

Su Yuran was reading the materials, and when she heard the movement, she raised her head. Li Chen walked in with a red face, but before she approached, she smelled of alcohol, and she frowned: “Why are you drinking again?”

Li Chen’s numb mind went blank for a moment, looked at Su Yuran, and asked in a daze, “What?”

Su Yuran wanted to get out of bed, curled up her calves in pain, and looked at Li Chen: “Why are you drinking again?”

Li Chen said, “I met a friend.”

Su Yuran opened her mouth: “Drink less.”

Li Chen nodded, the room was quiet and there was no movement, she was sitting on the sofa far from the bed, as if she was worried that the smell of her alcohol would infect Su Yuran, Su Yuran just frowned when she watched her movements, and didn’t care. say.

After a long time, Li Chen said: “Drink less, will you stop being a bait?”

Su Yuran’s complexion changed slightly, and she looked at Li Chen. She was sitting on the sofa, shrouded in shadows, so she couldn’t see clearly, but she could feel Li Chen’s red eyes.

From childhood to adulthood, whenever Li Chen wanted to cry, she couldn’t hold back her red eyes. When she was a child, she scolded herself for being useless, but she couldn’t help it. She even smiled and comforted her, don’t hold back, people should release their emotions.

Later, Li Chen released his feelings for her.

Su Yuran didn’t speak.

Li Chen said again: “Drink less, will you stop going abroad?”

Su Yuran lowered her head and pinched the edge of the document. It was her job application form. After this investigation, she applied to be a special commissioner and went abroad for two years.

She needs to give Li Chen some time to sort out her feelings.

Or rather, she needs this time.

After a long time, Su Yuran said, “You know everything?”

Li Chen said, “Don’t you just want me to know?”

It was deliberately placed on the table where she ate, wasn’t it intentionally for her to see it, the moment she saw it, she was stabbed a few times in the heart by a needle, and almost stopped breathing.

The suffocation caused by the pain is now covering it again, and under the influence of alcohol, it is infinitely magnified. She pressed her chest, her face turned pale from the pain.

It’s a pity that Su Yuran couldn’t see it in the shadows.

Su Yuran said, “I’m planning to go abroad…”

“Didn’t you say you would never leave your current position?”

Li Chen’s voice was low and hoarse, soaked in blood, the pain paralyzed all her nerves, and she began to speak indiscriminately: “You can’t hold on any longer, do you want to run away?”

One sentence hit Su Yuran’s pain point.

They are so familiar with each other that they know that just talking can make each other feel miserable.

The moment the words came out, Li Chen closed her eyes, her chest was full of annoyance and regret, Su Yuran clenched the edge of the document, her nails pinched fiercely, her knuckles turned white, as pale as her face.

Li Chen glanced at her, curled up her hands, and apologized: “I’m sorry, I’m not…”

“Go out.” Su Yuran’s voice was flat, with irresistibility, she said, “Li Chen, go out.”

Li Chen and her stared at each other for a few seconds, then bowed their heads and left.

Go to the door and bump into someone.

It’s Team Zhang.

Team Zhang didn’t go in, but after seeing Li Chen go out, she closed the door and chased after Li Chen.

Li Chen looked at her: “What’s wrong?”

Team Zhang said, “Let’s talk?”

Li Chen didn’t know, so he followed Team Zhang out of the inpatient department. The two stood in the garden, surrounded by pedestrians and children running around. It wasn’t noisy, but it wasn’t quiet either.

Team Zhang looked at Li Chen and asked her, “Do you know how many crime investigative reporters are there in China now?”

Li Chen looked at her and did not speak.

Team Zhang said: “There are still 63 people. There are 63 crime investigation reporters across the country. You should know better than me why there are only so few left.”

Li Chen lowered her head.

Team Zhang said: “Su Yuran is the oldest. She once said that as long as she is alive, she will not leave this industry. This is the career she wants to fight for her whole life. Guess why she applied to be a special mission. member?”

“Because of you.” Team Zhang looked at Li Chen. Xu Ruoxing and Su Yi’s alarm this time was far greater than any other time. In other words, Su Yuran’s feelings for Li Chen had changed, and she could no longer face her with her previous mentality. As for Li Chen, he couldn’t see that she might be in danger or get injured because of herself.

Su Yuran, she can’t do it.

Team Zhang met Li Chengang when she was in college. At that time, she had just met Su Yuran. She had just joined the police force and was responsible for protecting Su Yuran’s life. That investigation was much more dangerous than it is now. She wasn’t afraid at all. She sometimes asked Su Yuran if changing a job would make it easier. Su Yuran asked her, “What about you?”

She laughed.

She and Su Yuran really have a feeling of sympathy for each other, but Su Yuran only treats her as a sympathetic friendship, and she puts all her heart on Li Chen.

At the most dangerous time, she said: “Go and protect Li Chen, I can handle it.”

Li Chen didn’t know about these things.

Team Zhang said: “I’m not asking you to appreciate her, nor do I want to be a good person. I said these things to make you praise her. Li Chen, anyone in this world can say that she can’t hold on and wants to run away, but you Can’t.”

“She had to give up for you.”

Li Chen stood under the tree, Team Zhang had already left, she looked up at the window of Su Yuran’s ward, the light was on, Su Yuran taught her many things, from how to live to how to live well, she Everything was given by Su Yuran, but she was childish and ridiculous in repaying her kindness.

The people around changed from being noisy to slowly becoming quiet, one person left, some people left, but Li Chen was always sitting there, like a statue, quietly sitting there, she didn’t make a sound, just looked down at her phone After a long time, she took out her mobile phone and called Xu Ruoxing, the call was connected quickly, and Xu Ruoxing called her, “Li Chen?”

Li Chen said, “Well, I’ll go back to the company tomorrow.”

With a low voice, Xu Ruoxing didn’t ask any further questions, and said, “Got it.”

After hanging up the phone, she looked into the bathroom. Su Yi had been in it for a long time, and she hadn’t come out since she got home. She knocked on the door twice, not very relieved, after all, Su Yi also drank a lot of wine.

Xu Ruoxing stood at the door again, knocking on the door: “Su Yi?”

Su Yi turned her head when she heard the voice, a little dizzy, and when she turned her head, the surroundings were dyed with color, she collected herself and said, “Come out immediately.”

The voice was very clear, and there was no sign of drunkenness.

Xu Ruoxing pursed his lips and stood at the door. The door opened and Su Yi came out. Xu Ruoxing helped her into the room. There was only one warm light on in the room just now, and the light was not very bright. Xu Ruoxing helped her walk to the bed and said to Su Yi : “You drank too much, take a shower tomorrow, rest early now, next morning…”

Rubbling on, Su Yi looked at her from the side, Xu Ruoxing looked down, his side face was under the light, the outline was highlighted, the lines were very beautiful, slightly different from her usual serious look at work, Xu Ruoxing now is softer.

Xu Ruoxing didn’t reply after talking for a long time, she looked at Su Yi, but seeing Su Yi looking at her, she couldn’t help shouting: “Su Yi?”

Su Yi’s eyes were deep, and her pupils were even darker under the warm lamp. She didn’t say a word, but heard Xu Ruoxing calling her, and her voice was faint. Xu Ruoxing thought she was drunk and didn’t want to talk, so he helped her sit by the bed, Just about to get up, Su Yi said, “Don’t move.”

She didn’t move, she sat on the edge of the bed, Su Yi looked at her, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw a hanger beside her, with a silk scarf hanging on the side, she bought a lot of them later, but the one she wanted to give to Xu Ruoxing the most was her The one in the bag is always carried with her, and it was given to Xu Ruoxing by “coincidence” after she lost her memory, and it is now on the hanger.

When she got up, Xu Ruoxing didn’t know what she wanted to do, but just as she got up, Su Yi said, “Don’t move.”

Xu Ruoxing had no choice but to sit by the bed.

Su Yi swayed, stood by the hanger, and took the silk scarf. The slender silk scarf was made of delicate material, like a thin cicada, and very light. She turned her head and sat on her under Xu Ruoxing’s puzzled eyes On the opposite side, the room was quiet, only to see Su Yi’s hands fluttering, she pulled Xu Ruoxing’s shirt collar, and tied her bow ties one after another, silent and stubborn, Xu Ruoxing lowered his eyes, Su Yi, who was busy with his hands, was very serious. In the seriousness of the stock, there is also a slight sense of indifference. It seems that she is integrated into the matter of wearing a bow tie, and nothing around her will affect her. This kind of concentration and concentration is very exciting.

Her eyes wandered from Su Yi’s forehead to the tip of her nose and her thin lips, and she couldn’t help but get closer.

Breathing began to entangle, Su Yi stared at her bowing her head slightly, then raised her eyes, brushed her long eyelashes, and curled them to the tip of Xu Ruoxing’s heart, the numb itching began to spread, and the emptiness in her heart rose and needed to be filled.

Xu Ruoxing’s voice was a little low and dry, she turned her head and called, “Su Yi.”

Su Yi stopped what he was doing, and looked at Xu Ruoxing. Those eyes were shining under the not-so-bright warm lamp. Su Yi didn’t respond for half a second. Suddenly, there was a buzzing in his ear, followed by Xu Ruoxing’s The voice was far away, the word Su Yi was diluted to only one note, lingering in her ears.

Xu Ruoxing lowered his head, Su Yi tightly grasped the hand holding the silk scarf, and suddenly pulled one end of the silk scarf from top to bottom, the silk scarf pulled Xu Ruoxing’s body forward, Su Yi pulled lightly, and the silk scarf fell apart Opening, she suddenly pulled Xu Ruoxing’s wrist, and wrapped it with a silk scarf, one after another.

The silk scarf wraps around the wrist, and it feels cold to the touch, followed by scorching high temperature, which belongs to Xu Ruoxing’s temperature, dyed on the thin silk scarf.

Su Yi wrapped a silk scarf around Xu Ruoxing’s hands, pulling and pulling, Xu Ruoxing’s hands were behind her back, bound tightly, Su Yi approached her, her voice was cool and bewitching, she said: “Xu Ruoxing, I can tie you up ?”
