Watching in the dark night

Chapter 17 Rose Fragrance
  On the snow-white page, only lines of large characters written in black pen were left.

There are only a few strokes on each page, and the language is perverse and full of hostility.

(Destroy this world!) A whole page is covered with these big words.

(They are all sick!) On another page, there is another huge exclamation mark in thick black drawn with a pen.

() On the last page, nothing was written, just a few lines of ellipses placed there, in bold black and large format.

Is this her handwriting? Yan Shuang was a little suspicious.

Why was she so cynical back then? Although she seems to be laughing now, what was her mood when she wrote these words?
  She really had no impression at all!

By the way, this happened ten years ago, who still remembers it?

Just thinking about it randomly, she rummaged through the drawers and the small cabinet next to her. Inside are some hairpins she used as a child, as well as textbooks and extracurricular books she has read.

After flipping through it carefully, I found an unfinished novel handwritten by myself on letterhead paper at the very end. She read a few chapters at random and immediately put it back in the cabinet feeling a little ashamed.

It's too childish, she'd better stop reading it.

You have to clean up quickly, otherwise my mother will come up later and see that she has made no progress at all, and she will start nagging again.

Thinking of this, Yan Shuang began to clean up even harder.

By the time she had finished cleaning her room, her dear parents had already cleaned up the entire first floor and moved the things that needed to be moved to the car.

Dad strictly enforced the rules when he went out to take out the trash, and even brought back food by the way. Lunch and dinner for the three of them were handled casually.

"I'm just going to sleep tonight. I've got almost everything. I'll go back early tomorrow morning!" While eating, Ruan Xue told Yan Shuang to get up early tomorrow.

"Yeah." Yan Shuang nodded in response as he couldn't speak with something in his mouth.

"Are you feeling any physical discomfort when you come back this time?" Ruan Xue looked at Yan Shuang with concern in her eyes and hesitated for a long time and asked.

"Huh?" Feeling unwell? She has always been in good health, nothing wrong with her? Yan Shuang was stunned by her mother's question and didn't know how to answer.

She quickly swallowed what was in her mouth and replied, "I'm in good health. It tastes good when I eat it!"

Ruan Xue was amused by her exaggerated statement, and nodded with a pleased expression: "That's good, that's good."

"Same for you. How can she be uncomfortable and talk nonsense?" Yan Lu has always loved his wife, but when he said this, his tone was obviously a little anxious.

The strange thing is that Ruan Xue usually can't see her husband saying harsh words to her.

Whenever her husband speaks harshly, she starts to get angry like a little girl, the kind that can't even be coaxed.

But today, he didn't seem to care much about his rude way of speaking.

She nodded again and murmured: "Yes, why do you think I asked this?"

Yan Shuang pretended to be angry and said to her biological father: "Dad, why are you talking to my dear mother? You deserve to be punished!"

She wanted to lighten the atmosphere, so that when her mother reacted, her father would be unable to eat and walk away.

With a hearty smile, Yan Lu also knew that his daughter was stepping down for him, so he picked up the drinks on the table and drank them in one gulp.

"Yes, I should be punished. Then I will punish myself with a drink, you can do whatever you want."

"Hey, why did you finish my drink and give it back to me!" Ruan Xue quickly tried to save the drink in front of her, but it was too late.

This person is really taking someone else's drink to apologize, that's too much! Looking at her father's embarrassed look, Yan Shuang snickered and secretly protected her glass of drink with her hand.

By the time the three of them finished eating, the sky had completely darkened. After cleaning for most of the day and moving a lot of things into the car, the three of them were a little tired, so they went back to their respective rooms to rest early so that they could get up early and set off tomorrow.

The night in the suburbs was a bit cold. Yan Shuang walked to the window and prepared to close it.

"What is this?" She picked up a piece of thick hemp rope tied to the window frame and looked carefully. The fracture was neat, and it was obviously broken by someone using a knife or scissors. What was the purpose of tying such a hemp rope here?
  Not too lazy to think too much, I made the bed and got ready to rest. She has exercised too much today and now she just wants to have a good sleep!
  Beside the dark lake, colorful bridges connect the roads on both sides in the distance.

Yan Shuang was sitting by the lake, wondering what she was thinking. She looked at the quiet lake quietly, one foot dangling on the surface of the lake boredly, causing ripples on the surface of the lake.

"If you jump now, you will become very ugly after death." A clear female voice sounded behind her.

There were no street lights by this lake. Suddenly someone spoke, which startled Yan Shuang.

"Who?" She turned around cautiously, stood up halfway and looked behind her.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." A woman in a white dress walked out of the darkness.

Yan Shuang followed the sound and looked over. The person who came looked like he was in his twenties. Her long black hair blended into the night.

At this time and in this scene, Yan Shuang looked at her outfit and involuntarily started to get goosebumps all over her body.

Who would wear a white skirt and wander outside in the middle of the night?

This is what she thought and asked.

The woman opposite smiled slightly. Although Yan Shuang couldn't see her face clearly, he knew she was smiling.

"Aren't you also wearing white?" The voice was smiling, and he couldn't help but laugh.

After listening to her words, Yan Shuang quickly looked down at her clothes.

When did you change your clothes? Was she trying to catch a cold by wearing such a thin dress in early spring? Moreover, she was obviously wearing a coat when she went back to her hometown today?

Wait, she looked at her hands. Why did her hands look so short?
  He looked down at his body again. Why are his legs so short and stubby? I always feel like something is wrong
  Didn't she go back to her room to sleep after eating with her parents? So where is this now?
  The woman looked frightened when she saw that Yan Shuang kept touching her body. Worried, he asked: "Little sister, what's wrong with you?"

"Can't you find your way home?"

Little sister? Does it mean her?

He saw her pointing at him, still looking confused. The woman smiled and walked out of the darkness.

"It seems that I misunderstood. I thought you were too young to want to commit suicide."

She reached out and touched Yan Shuang's head, attracted by her cute appearance.

This girl is so tall, Yan Shuang thought to herself. He could actually touch the top of his head effortlessly. He was not short among girls.

After carefully observing the condition of his whole body, Yan Shuang was sure that he had become shorter. To be precise, I am getting younger!

Is this in a dream again? Is this a dream about what happened when I was a child?

Seeing that she still had no reaction, the woman standing in front of her was a little unsure. She carefully observed Yan Shuang and then asked.

"Do you really want to commit suicide?"
