Chapter 121: The girl’s heart is completely messed up
Tang Yuan was shocked, he just hated the water...
The girl didn't mind washing her face at this moment!
Tang Yuan knew the girl's appearance. In his mind, such a beautiful face could not be overstated even if it was washed with spiritual liquid.
As the water washed her face, the girl's face became clearer and brighter. Her skin was much whiter and more delicate than what Lu Feng had seen before. Under the hazy moonlight, it was as clear as white jade, giving people a softness that could be broken by a blow. .
A pair of moist and crystal-clear eyes, blinking brightly amidst the water droplets, are indescribably delicate and charming.
After cleaning, the girl casually wiped away the water stains on her face with the back of her hand, smiled softly at Lu Feng and lowered her head again.
Obviously, the action of lowering her head has long been her habit, and it is more like a way of self-protection.
Lu Feng faintly sensed a hint of inferiority complex in the girl, who seemed to have very little confidence in himself.
"Pull your hair up!"
Lu Feng didn't like the girl's depressed image and wanted to help her change it.
Hearing this, the girl's eyes gradually became moist, and she mustered up the courage to shake her head...
Covering her appearance with hair can give her a great sense of security, which is also the bottom line for girls.
Without the cover of her bangs, she felt as if she was standing naked in front of everyone, and felt uncomfortable all over.
The girl lowered her head and did not dare to look at Lu Feng, nor did she dare to have any disobedience in her heart. She just prayed that Lu Feng would quickly shift his gaze elsewhere and stop staring at her fiercely.
Suddenly, a hungry "gurgling" sound came from Tang Yuan's abdomen.
The girl's mood immediately relaxed, as if she was grasping a life-saving straw, and she hurriedly ran to the back room.
Seeing this, Lu Feng shook his head helplessly. For a moment, he was afraid that it would be difficult to make the girl change her image. Compared with her low self-esteem, he found that the girl seemed to be a little timid and introverted.
Lu Feng and Tang Yuan followed and walked in. The environment inside the house was actually darker than outside.
There are some scattered luminous stones placed in several corners of the house. The light emitted is not even as good as that of fireflies, but it is these light spots that barely maintain the sight inside the house.
The girl took out a small bamboo basket from the cabinet, turned around and saw Lu Feng and the others walking in. She immediately placed the bamboo basket on the table and casually took the candlestick placed under the table.
Tang Yuan was just about to ask why the candlestick wasn't lit earlier, but he just opened his mouth and didn't say a word.
Because...there are only a few candles left on the candlestick in front of me, and even if they are lit, they won't last long.
As everyone knows, the girl has been holding on to this tiny candle for more than half a year, and is only willing to light it once during the holidays.
Click...
The flint gave off a flash of light, and the girl lit the candle on the table.
Looking at the flickering candlelight, Tang Yuan felt heavy in his heart.
He looked at the bamboo basket on the table, which contained six or seven shriveled steamed buns.
The girl reached out and carefully handed the steamed buns to Lu Feng and Tang Yuan. She knew that they had been working with her for most of the day and had not eaten anything yet.
Tang Yuan took the steamed bun and his expression was dull for a moment... It can be said that this is the worst steamed bun he has ever seen.
Dry, shriveled, cold and hard...
Looking up, Lu Feng had already taken a bite.
Feeling Lu Feng's gaze, Tang Yuan also started to eat.
The girl looked at the two of them without disdain and smiled gently. This was the most precious food she could get her hands on.
Originally there were some pickled vegetables that I had made myself to go with it, but the pickled ones recently had been sold out by my brother.
This is also the main means for girls to maintain their lives.
Tang Yuan finished the first steamed bun without any intention of filling his stomach. Looking at the few steamed buns left in the bamboo basket, he hesitated and did not reach out again.
Firstly, it’s because the steamed buns taste really average, and secondly, it’s because some people can’t bear to eat too much.
Thinking about the delicacies he had eaten at the restaurant every day these past few days, Tang Yuan's heart became a little heavier.
"Ahem..." Tang Yuan coughed. He didn't know whether he was choking on the steamed buns or because he wanted to taste the delicacies.
But this cough frightened the girl, and she couldn't help but drop a small piece of the steamed bun in her hand on the table.
Lu Feng and Tang Yuan looked at each other when they heard the movement.
The girl blushed and picked up the crumbs of the steamed bun, put them in front of her mouth, blew on them gently, and put them into her mouth cherishingly.
He showed a smile of happiness and contentment.
Tang Yuan suddenly remembered that there were pastries packaged in the restaurant in his wallet, so he immediately took them out and pushed the plate in front of the girl.
"Try this," Tang Yuan smiled gently at the girl.
Lu Feng swallowed the last bite of the steamed bun in his hand and nodded towards the girl.
The girl paused for a moment, shook her head with her head bowed, and was too embarrassed to reach out and continued to eat the bun in her hand.
Seeing the girl being so 'cowardly' and 'cowardly', Lu Feng felt an unreasonable anger in his heart and said with a straight face, "Are you looking down on us if you don't eat?"
Just such a simple sentence...
The girl's eyes couldn't help but moisten after hearing this. There was a layer of mist in her eyes, and her aggrieved look really made people feel distressed.
Afraid that Lu Feng would be angry and misunderstood, the girl kept shaking the half-left steamed bun in her hand and making gestures to indicate that she would just eat this.
Lu Feng originally wanted to inspire the girl to take the initiative to eat cakes, but depending on the situation, it was obvious that the power of words could not defeat the introversion and timidity in the girl's temperament.
The girl obviously has a figure and appearance that are envied by all women in the world, but she looks so inferior and cowardly.
It is really a pearl covered in dust and a waste of natural resources.
Lu Feng couldn't help but feel angry and snatched the bun from the girl's hand.
With a wave of his hand, he took out all the steamed buns in the bamboo basket and threw them to Tang Yuan.
The girl's watery eyes were full of astonishment, and instantly filled with tears, and her whirling state made her look even more pitiful.
Lu Feng ordered the girl fiercely: "The steamed buns are gone. If you don't eat the pastries, you will starve to death here!"
As he spoke, he swallowed half of the steamed bun he had snatched away.
At the same time, he cast a look at Tang Yuan, signaling that the buns on the table belonged to him.
At this moment, the girl was completely stunned. She didn't care to hide her face and looked at Lu Feng in shock with her head raised.
There is still saliva left on that half of the bun!
He actually swallowed it without any disdain...
The girl's heart was completely confused. She was in a state of confusion that she had never experienced before. She was in a daze. She had never felt like this since she was a child...
Even his own brother dislikes him in every way. He waits for him to finish his meal before he dares to serve it...
But now, there is such a man who does not dislike himself...
Lu Feng saw the girl frozen on the spot, still making no move, and knew that what he had done was not enough!
"Open your mouth!"
Lu Feng's serious voice sounded, with a hint of refusal, and he held a piece of pastry in his hand and brought it to the girl's mouth.
The girl in a state of shock opened her mouth subconsciously before she could react, and the next moment it was filled to the brim.
"If you don't want me to keep feeding you like this, just take it yourself!"
"Did you hear that clearly?"
The girl was so frightened that she nodded quickly when she heard Lu Feng's domineering and serious words. Before she could swallow anything in her mouth, she reached out and pinched another piece.
Lu Feng nodded with satisfaction.
He looked at Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan was still shocked by Lu Feng's domineering posture. He was stunned for a moment subconsciously, and was so frightened that he stuffed the cold steamed bun in his hand into his mouth.
Although there were tears in the girl's eyes, the grievance on her face was no longer there, and she felt a faint warmth in her heart.
Although Lu Feng's domineering and harsh words shocked her, the girl knew in her heart that Lu Feng had good intentions.
The candle gradually went out, and Lu Feng saw the girl stop.
"Why don't you continue eating?"
Lu Feng stared at the girl seriously.
The girl raised her head and puffed out her cheeks to show that she was full. But seeing Lu Feng's serious expression, she couldn't help but reach out for another piece of pastry in fear.
Although the pastry was the most delicious food she had ever eaten in her life, at this moment, she really couldn't eat it anymore!
Lu Feng glanced at the food bowl and found that the girl had already eaten seven or eight cakes...
At that moment, he suppressed the laughter in his heart and looked very satisfied.
Looking up and glancing to one side, Tang Yuan puffed out his cheeks and saw that all the cold steamed buns in front of him had been finished.
Seeing this scene, Lu Feng couldn't hold back his smile anymore and laughed happily.
At this time, the candle went out.
There was laughter in the darkness.
Vaguely... the girl seemed to be laughing happily.
…
Because there was no candlelight in the house, the three of them came outside and sat on three stone pillars.
The girl still lowered her head, supported her chin with her hands, and stared blankly at the ground.
Under the hazy moonlight, the girl was so quiet that it made people feel inexplicably distressed.
He didn't want to break the quiet beauty, but Lu Feng still asked.
Since you have decided to let the girl follow you, you need to know more about it. At least, you must know the name.
When the girl heard Lu Feng ask her name, a flash of embarrassment flashed across her fair and delicate face. She took a branch and gently wrote three words on the ground.
'Wea Cat'
Lu Feng and Tang Yuan both looked at the words on the ground with moved expressions. Such a perfunctory name was full of insults.
The person who named her obviously didn't regard the girl as a human being, and casually called her "cat or dog"...
The girl also panicked and expressed that she didn't like this name.
It didn't matter before, but now I care a little more.
Under the moonlight, after a conversation of "you tell me and I write", Lu Feng and I got to know the girl a lot better.
The girl's parents died when she was young, and her brother and sister were abducted and trafficked, working as book boys and herding cattle and ducks;
He moved around many places without a fixed residence, and only moved to Tianling Town a few years ago.
Now she is not yet seventeen years old, but she has been called dozens of names.
There are many more uglier songs than Cats and Dogs.
The girl's eyes couldn't help but become moist again as she recounted her tragic past, and she could faintly see crystal tears in her eyes.
Tears rolled in his eyes, but they did not fall, as if he was nostalgic for the girl's long eyelashes.
This also reveals the girl's temperament. Although she is weak and crybaby, has low self-esteem and is introverted on the outside, this dark and tragic memory makes the girl very strong on the inside and learns to cope with various difficulties.
This strength is not reflected in the character, but is deep in the bones.
The girl didn't want to live in the past memories anymore and wanted to get rid of those unpleasant names, so she asked Lu Feng to give her a new name.
'If there are three thousand pieces of water, this one is the most different. '
"From now on... you can call me 'Ruoshui'."
“Try to be confident!”
"Believe that you are unique in the world."
Lu Feng encouraged the girl.
The girl secretly recited the word 'Ruoshui' several times in her heart, and tears finally fell from her eyes.
Although the name was ordinary, she felt the meaning hidden in it and felt Lu Feng's expectations for her.
'Ruoshui. '
These were the two most beautiful words she had ever heard in her life!
It sounds ten thousand times better than those cats and dogs!
The girl smiled happily, although there were still tears in her face.
