Chapter 231 The Little Dumb Stand-in in Female Disguise (8)
"I vaguely remember that he and I were very similar, referring to our appearance. Our personalities were different. He was always quiet and well-behaved, while I was very restless."
"I am a girl. In other people's eyes, girls are money-losing goods. They are either drowned at birth or thrown into the back mountains. But I am different."
"I am very lucky. My parents treat me as well as my younger brother. In some ways, they are even more caring. Whenever I get something that even my younger brother doesn't have, I will share it with him."
"I like Adi very much."
In the room, four people sat around a round table, quietly listening to Lin Qingyu telling her story. After many years, her emotions still fluctuated greatly when she mentioned her brother again.
Because I really cared about it, I can never let it go.
"That's all. To be honest, I came back this time to ask him why he treated me like that. I don't think I've done anything to let him down."
Was it really just out of jealousy of himself? He couldn't stand the fact that his parents treated him better than him?
Lin Qingyu was skeptical about this. She had already prepared herself mentally, but sadly she discovered that deep down in her heart she was still defending Lin Qingle.
What if, what if there really is something she doesn't know?
Whenever she had this thought, the chill that penetrated deep into her bones would instantly spread, until she shivered in the scorching summer. The feeling of being buried by the winter snow would always emerge in time to remind her of how ridiculous she was.
"I had a high fever at the time and my memory was a little fuzzy. The doctor said there was nothing I could do and I had to remember it all on my own." Lin Qingyu took a sip of the hot water in the cup, trying to add some warmth to her body.
"That's the only thing I remember clearly."
Feng Rou hugged her and tried to comfort her, "It will be fine, everything will be fine."
"I am here with you. You will definitely get the answer you want."
She really regarded Lin Qingyu as a friend, otherwise she would not have given up her comfortable life and come to such a remote place.
There is no air conditioning, no toilet, and the signal is intermittent. Miss Feng has never experienced such hardship before.
She glared at the two people opposite her and said in a bad tone, "Have you asked enough questions? Are you so curious?"
Cheng Xingwen pushed his glasses awkwardly. He came out to look for someone because he was worried, but ended up being dragged over by Bai Yichen in a daze and forced to listen to this story.
This made him feel a little uncomfortable as he didn't like to pry into other people's secrets.
"Didn't they come looking for you?"
Bai Yichen, who had been lost in his own thoughts ever since he saw Lin Qingyu's face, finally asked about the confusion.
“…No,” Lin Qingyu thought seriously and gave an affirmative answer, “Over the years, from the time I was taken in by my adoptive parents to now, they have never come once.”
The village is almost isolated from the outside world. Lin Qingyu comforted herself that they had never left this place, so it was normal that they didn't know where to find her.
...very normal.
"That's not right." Bai Yichen's intuition was really accurate at times. "You were obviously thinking, 'Ah, they don't really care about me. Sure enough, the girl is just a money-loser.'"
"So what!"
Lin Qingyu growled, covering her face tightly and choking, "Do you really have to say it? I don't need you to emphasize the fact that I was abandoned again!"
"Is it so difficult for me to keep some illusions?!"
"Xiaoyu..."
Feng Rou glared at Bai Yichen and quickly took out a few tissues to wipe her crying friend's tears.
"Feel sorry."
Bai Yichen was stunned for a moment and then apologized decisively. His slightly widened puppy eyes no longer had the sharpness to see through people's hearts easily. He was obviously a sunny and handsome man, but suddenly he became dull.
"I'm being a little blunt, not intentionally poking at you. In exchange, I can also tell you about my parents."
Bai Yichen noticed that Lin Qingyu's sobbing was gradually weakening, and began to rack his brains to recall the information on the data card.
The handsome young man smiled without any gloom, his clear and bright eyes made people never doubt his sincerity, and his every move was very contagious, but he himself did not know it.
"My parents died a long time ago, probably when I was in junior high school."
"I was really confused at the time. After all, I lost two of my closest people at once... It really seemed like fate was playing a joke on me."
Lin Qingyu had stopped crying a long time ago and was staring blankly at the person who was calmly talking about the death of his loved one. Feng Rou's eyes, on the other hand, were red with emotion, and she felt that her attitude towards him just now was a little too rude.
Cheng Xingwen just took off his glasses silently, patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged him silently.
Their behavior made Bai Yichen feel uncomfortable.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't have that attitude, it's weird..." He seemed to have thought of something and felt a little amused. "I say, you don't think they were in a car accident or a plane crash, do you?"
"Isn't it?"
Feng Rou was very cautious, fearing that she might say something wrong and irritate Bai Yichen.
"Of course not!" Bai Yichen shook his head and laughed, looking open-minded, "They are just in poor health."
"My mother suffered a lot when she gave birth to me, and her body never recovered. My father has been traveling around for many years, overexerting himself, which has led to his becoming weak inside."
"They died of natural causes."
"It's just the right time."
"How is it? Are you disappointed?" The young man smiled, showing his small tiger teeth. "It's a small story that is not bloody and does not attract attention."
"Idiot!" Cheng Xingwen knocked him hard on the head, and when the young man cried out in pain, his tone was complicated, "Who would comfort someone with something like this?"
People who try to make others feel better by exposing their own scars
——It’s really stupid.
Lin Qingyu turned her head away and said awkwardly, "My tone was not very good, you don't have to be like this, I don't blame you."
She is a soft-hearted person who is not afraid of threats, but she cannot refuse the kindness of others.
"Come to think of it, did you call me to tell you something? It can't be to listen to my story."
She asked the key question.
Feng Rou and Cheng Xingwen also wanted to know why.
"I meant to say that I saw a—"
The image of the person holding an umbrella for him in the rain suddenly flashed before his eyes, and the words on his lips took a detour.
"A little girl your age."
Lin Qingyu had no doubts, "Looks like me?"
Bai Yichen lowered his eyes and spoke softly.
"Yeah, a very cute girl."
