For several days, except for the scarf tangled in a branch, Shiyang seemed to have completely disappeared from this world, with no news at all.
Fu Jingchuan personally visited all the nearby villages, but no one rescued anyone from the river, and there was no information about Shi Yang.
Faced with a huge reward of 100 million, everyone was excited, but no one could provide any effective information.
Shiyang didn't call back.
If she were still alive, there was no way she wouldn't call.
In the past few days, Fu Jingchuan never dared to leave his cell phone for a moment, nor did he dare to let the phone's battery power drop below 50%. He pressed the answer button almost the moment every call rang, for fear of missing Shi Yang's call. Telephone.
But no.
For so many days, Shiyang's familiar voice never appeared on the other end of his phone.
It was as if she had completely evaporated from this world, leaving without a trace or even a single word.
She could not want him, but it was impossible not to want Tongtong.
Tongtong is her life.
If she couldn't, she wouldn't have left Tongtong alone.
Tongtong also became more and more silent in the frustration of not being able to wait for Shiyang to come home. No matter how she was comforted, she was just a child after all. Perhaps she had sensed something and held Shiyang with her all day long. She didn't let go of her little bear doll. She didn't even ask her mother when she would come back. She just held her little bear silently, and was alone in the room, talking to the little doll silently.
Only when Fu Jingchuan came back from outside, she couldn't help but look behind him longingly, and then the light in her eyes slowly dissipated as she saw the emptiness behind Fu Jingchuan.
Only when she was sleeping at night and was awakened by nightmares would she cry and look for her mother.
She would wake up crying every night and cry her heart out for her mother.
Fu Jingchuan could only hold her and comfort her over and over again, feeling so heartbroken that he couldn't help himself.
Since Shiyang left, Fu Jingchuan has been unable to sleep all night long. When he closes his eyes, his mind is filled with Shiyang's appearance, quiet, gentle, and serious at work... Every one of her is fresh and agile, It seemed like it was right in front of my eyes, but when I opened my eyes, there was only cold air and nothing in front of me.
This feeling was even stronger when he returned to the home he shared with Shiyang.
Her figure and breath were everywhere in the room, but she was never seen again.
Fu Jingchuan couldn't even stay in this house for a second. The feeling of things changing and people changing was so painful that he could hardly breathe.
But he couldn't bear to leave this house where her figure and breath were still hidden.
He wandered around this room almost masochistically, and the time began to become long and unbearable.
Tongtong probably felt the same as him.
The moment she returned to this home and opened the door, she stood at the door and looked at the empty room. Then she slowly turned her head and asked him in a low voice: "Dad, do you think my mother will be waiting at home?" Are we here?"
The cautious eyes, the careful control of the volume as if for fear of scaring away the mother in the room, and the childish and expectant words made Fu Jingchuan's eyes red again.
He said nothing and could not say anything.
The room was still the familiar one, and everything was still the same as when Shiyang left it, but she never saw it again.
At night, Fu Jingchuan almost mechanically bathed Tongtong, washed her hair, and coaxed her to sleep.
These things that he had been doing with ease recently had become mechanical and lengthy.
This was not the first time that he came to complete these things when Shiyang was not at home. He also came here when Shiyang was on a business trip. But at that time, even if he mistakenly thought that she was leaving, he knew very well that she would come back.
He didn't understand, why didn't he be nice to her at that time?
Why get angry with her because she insists on leaving things?
It would be great if I let her go at that time.
At least she can live in another corner of the world without being disturbed.
He can still slowly find her.
But now...
When the familiar sharp pain struck his heart again, Fu Jingchuan forced himself to look away from the sleeping faces of Tongtong and Shiyang, who looked similar to each other. He stood up and walked to the closet, wanting to get his pajamas to wash up.
The closet door opened, and the familiar safe appeared in front of me.
Fu Jingchuan suddenly remembered the way Shiyang was standing in front of the open safe the night before she left. At that time, he was going to blow dry Tongtong's hair, so he didn't pay attention to what she was looking at.
He couldn't help but stare at the safe for a while, and then slowly stretched his hand towards the safe.
He had never opened Shiyang's safe, just like he had never looked through her cell phone.
But he knew the password.
He entered the code and the safe door opened.
An old jewelry box came into view.
Fu Jingchuan looked at it in a daze for a while, then slowly stretched out his hand, took out the jewelry box, and opened it.
The dated white jade Guanyin necklace suddenly appeared in front of me.
Fu Jingchuan was stunned.
"Brother, you gave it to me. What if there is no Bodhisattva to protect you?"
Little Shen Yu's soft and childish words passed through the years and slowly sounded in her ears.
