Cui Zhiruo picked it up, looked very happy, came to the bedside, and asked: "Hey, you went abroad, where are you now?"
"..."
Sheng Liuming looked up at Cui Zhiruo. Although the speakerphone was not on, the content of the phone could be heard.
"Is the wound okay? Have the stitches been removed?"
asked a man's voice from the other side.
He knew it was Su Muchuan.
"I'm fine, it's just a minor injury." Cui Zhiruo looked a little shy when she answered. "By the way, when will you come back?"
"It's almost time for school to start. What's wrong? You miss me so soon."
"Of course, summer vacation without you will be boring."
"Then do you want to come over? Just buy a plane ticket. Didn't we make travel plans before? I will..."
While Su Muchuan was talking, Cui Zhiruo's eyes slowly fell on their brother and sister. At that moment, Sheng Liuming lowered his head, pretending that he didn't care about her phone call just now.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't go this time."
She still couldn't leave these two children behind.
"All right."
In fact, she really wanted to go, but...
hang up the phone.
The younger sister came to Cui Zhiruo, grabbed her clothes, and asked in a sweet voice: "Sister, are we really going to play tomorrow?"
"of course."
"I'm so happy. I really hope it can come soon."
Cui Zhiruo pursed her lips and smiled. In fact, the smile on her face was not pretty.
It's just... Ever since the beating happened, Cui Zhiruo has been thinking about what she can do for them.
The first thing that comes to mind is to call the police, but the problem is that there is only one grandma in the family. Is it really possible to make a living in the future?
And grandma always came over to say good things, saying that their father was usually kind, but was only sad because Sheng Liuming's mother died. He would become like this when he drank, and this would never happen again.
So Cui Zhiruo did not choose to call the police, but their grandmother seemed not to know the seriousness of domestic violence at all.
She was only sixteen years old, a person who couldn't even take care of herself. She didn't know what else to do, so she wanted to create beautiful memories for them and let them temporarily escape from the painful experience.
So, the next day, I took them to play together.
"Sister, this movie is so interesting."
First I watched a movie.
Since there were no animated movies, I chose a movie that could be viewed by children.
"Yes, does Sheng Liuming find it interesting?"
"Um."
He just responded.
Cui Zhiruo has long been accustomed to his cold look.
"I also find it very interesting. The male protagonist in it is really handsome. You said it would be great if I married such a handsome man in the future."
I started to imagine what it would be like to have such a handsome boyfriend.
"Does sister like this?"
Sheng Liuming asked.
"Yes, don't you think it's particularly dazzling standing under the flashlight? If the person I like stands there, I will feel very proud."
"Um."
He responded again.
"Let's go, sister will take you to eat something delicious."
With that said, Cui Zhiruo took her sister's hand.
"How was it? Did you have fun today?"
Cui Zhiruo asked with a smile while eating food.
“Super happy.”
My sister answered happily.
Sheng Liuming didn't say anything, he just ate his meal calmly.
Who would have thought that Sheng Liuming, who looked like a little sun always carrying danger and simplicity, would have such a cold look when he was young.
He now looks like a taciturn adult in his twenties.
"Sister is also very happy."
"Actually, I came to the cinema for the first time today. From now on, I can show off to my friends that I went to the movies."
Cui Zhiruo looked at the sister who said this with distressed eyes.
Although my life is not very good.
Not only did she take her brother and sister to the movies and eat delicious food, she also took them to play game consoles in the mall and experience things they had never done before.
My sister was very happy. Although Sheng Liuming didn't speak, he was also happy in his heart.
Cui Zhiruo originally wanted to leave beautiful memories for the two of them, but she didn't expect that she also left many beautiful memories for herself.
Before I knew it, it was time to go to school.
One day, when Sheng Liuming was going home, he met Cui Zhiruo walking on the road with his classmates. He did not come forward to say hello, but followed silently behind him and could clearly hear their conversation.
"What you mean is that you and Su Muchuan are just good friends, but after hearing the news that he had a girlfriend, you happened to feel that your chest was blocked and your head was dizzy."
Cui Zhiruo's classmate asked.
Su Muchuan?
Sheng Liuming knew that it was the friend who accompanied Cui Zhiruo in the hospital, and he automatically appeared in his mind.
He has a girlfriend?
"Yes, we are really just friendly friends."
Cui Zhiruo replied, I don't know why it was the last sentence, I want to say it, it seems to be explaining.
"Well..." The classmate paused and asked, "How did you and Su Muchuan meet?"
"My mom and her mom were very good friends."
"Even so, we may not become as good friends as you."
"Because we grew up together since childhood."
It’s not an exaggeration to say that they are childhood sweethearts.
"Sometimes I do a little test when I can't tell whether it's friendship or love. Do you want to give it a try?"
"A little test of friendship and love? What is that?"
"Try it, close your eyes first."
Cui Zhiruo asked doubtfully: "Why should I close my eyes?"
"Because the more realistic your imagination is, the better. Don't open your eyes."
"knew."
Although she didn't know what the test was, Cui Zhiruo still closed her eyes obediently.
They were standing in the corner of the roadside, and Sheng Liuming was not far away, wearing a hat and leaning against the wall.
"Okay?"
Cui Zhiruo asked.
"Now start to imagine as specifically as I say, the better."
"good."
"First of all, imagine what Su Muchuan looks like, and then he has a girlfriend by his side. He and his girlfriend will hold hands when they go out to play. The most important thing is that from now on, the most important thing for Su Muchuan is that girl. No matter what happens, put that girl first. And the way he looks at him is different from when he looks at you. He regards his girlfriend as a treasure, and his gentle eyes are full of doting. How does it feel? "
After saying this, the classmate's eyes widened.
"What's wrong with me?"
Cui Zhiruo touched her cheek and realized that she had shed tears just now without realizing it.
As soon as she finished saying that, Sheng Liuming immediately looked at Cui Zhiruo worriedly. The moment he saw the tears in her eyes, his pupils trembled.
