The Boyfriend Who I’ve Never Met

"Yes, my lord."

The candlelight inside the house stretched the figure outside the door very long, but as soon as the voice fell, the figure disappeared instantly.

The young man sitting in front of the bookcase looked down at the spreading letter paper on the bookcase again.

After a while, he stretched out his well-knotted right hand, picked up the letter paper, and hung it over the beating candlelight.

The flame reflected in his eyes like a light and shadow without the slightest temperature, and his cold white face never showed the slightest emotion.

However, when the edge of the letter paper touched the candlelight, it suddenly shattered into a light golden light halo, dotted and disappeared in a flash, as if it had never existed before.

But when he watched such a secret scene, he didn't show the slightest look of consternation, and he seemed very calm.

When the pale golden light and shadow dissipated, his gaze once again stayed on the seemingly ordinary bronze pendant on the book case.

This thing was found in Shao Anhe's study.

At that time, besides him, there were five or six guards in the study.

But no one really saw a mysterious light curtain on the wooden frame on which the copper pendant was placed.

It was a mirage-like spectacle that he had been used to since he was a child. It appeared suddenly and had nothing to do with the world he was in.

Many times, he will see something different from this world.

It was like an illusory spectacle, even if he stretched out his hand, he couldn't touch a trace of reality.

But this time, it seems a little different.

Because he clearly saw that in front of the light curtain, only half of the wooden box containing the copper pendant was hidden in the light curtain.

It seems that this thing can be touched, even through the light curtain.

When he reached out to take down the wooden box, the light curtain had not dissipated.

But when he just opened the wooden box and took out the copper pendant inside, at that moment, the embossed phoenix tail on the edge of the copper pendant suddenly broke.

The moment the fragments flew into the light curtain, he seemed to see the fuzzy figure of a girl.

But just for a moment, the light curtain surging into a whirlpool, after swallowing all the pictures, disappear without a trace.

The young man closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something.

The incense burner at the desk was burning with a light smell, like a sudden night breeze, blowing open the window with gaps.

With a slightly bitter wind blowing on his face, when the young son opened his eyes, he happened to see a light golden halo on the copper pendant on the bookcase.

In the faintly audible sound of a few bells, he saw with his own eyes the light golden streamer on the copper pendant flying out, condensing a letter before his case.

There are a few words on the envelope: Wei Yun's personal enlightenment.

The handwriting board is godless, not like a handwriting that a person can write.

I don't know how long it took before Wei Yun reached out and opened the envelope.

There is only a thin gold-spattered letter paper in the envelope, with only one line of ink on it:

"Sorry, wrong message."

The handwriting is the same as that on the envelope, and it is not a vertical line, but a horizontal line. It can be read smoothly from left to right.

But what does this unending sentence mean?

Wei Yun's eyebrows were slightly cold, and his knuckles were slightly hardened, and he squeezed the letter paper in his hand into a ball.

At this moment, Xie Tao hesitated for a long time before sending such a WeChat message. Seeing that the other party hadn't responded, she didn't think too much. She turned over her previous chat history with Zhou Xinyue and sent another message. To Zhou Xinyue.

When Xie Tao waited for her response while holding the phone, she didn't know when she fell asleep.

She had a dream.

Dreamed of Zhou Xinyue.

I dreamed that she was standing on a window sill. No matter how Xie Tao called her, she did not speak, but looked at Xie Tao and kept crying.

The snow-white curtains were blown by the wind, and the blue sky gradually became like a **** hole, and the dark shadow was pressed down, like a monster that just swallowed everything.

Zhou Xinyue moved her chapped lips, as if to say something to her.

But Xie Tao never heard it clearly from beginning to end.

When Xie Tao woke up, Fuhua was still asleep. She yawned and got up lightly.

After washing in a hurry, when Xie Tao came out of the back yard, she saw Fu Miaolan sitting on the high stool in front of the counter, holding a pen, and flipping through her notebook.

"Taotao is up?" Hearing the footsteps, Fu Miaolan looked back and saw Xie Tao, and said with a smile, "Go to the breakfast shop in Qiaotou and eat cold noodles. They just steamed it and it was delicious."

The cold noodles mentioned by Fu Miaolan is to spread a layer of cloth on the steamer drawer brushed with rapeseed oil, and then spread the ground rice milk evenly on the cloth, steam for a few minutes, and cut into lasagna with a knife. After adding soy sauce, vinegar, garlic water, chili and other ingredients, this is the favorite breakfast of people in Qizhen.

Qizhen belongs to Linzhou, and is the land of Sichuan and Sichuan. The people here are even more spicy and unhappy. Even breakfast cannot do without the taste of chili.

Although there is a cold word in cold noodles, based on Xie Tao's experience that he has eaten so many times, this cold noodle is still hot and the best.

Especially the cold noodles that have just come out of the steamer are the most soft and waxy.

Perhaps it is because the water quality of this moat in Linzhou is too special, so outside of Linzhou, there is no other place to eat such cold noodles.

"Okay, I'll go." Xie Tao replied.

Fu Miaolan got up early, and she always went out to eat breakfast alone, and then waited for her daughter Fuhua to wake up, and then went to the breakfast shop in Qiaotou to pack a breakfast for Fuhua back.

Xie Tao left the cake shop and walked to the bridge.

When she arrived at the breakfast shop on the opposite side of Qiaotou, she ordered a bowl of porridge and added a small portion of cold noodles, and then sat at the table and waited.

Thinking of sending Zhou Xinyue to WeChat last night, she took out the phone.

But when she clicked on WeChat, she found that Zhou Xinyue still did not reply.

Xie Tao was always a little uneasy in her heart. Coupled with the dream she had last night, she was even more worried about Zhou Xinyue.

Could it be... what happened?

Thinking of this, Xie Tao quit the chat interface with Zhou Xinyue, but at the next moment, she stopped her eyes on the strange WeChat account.

Before going to bed last night, she thought about it, and then sent a sentence.

But at this moment, Xie Tao scratched the back of her head, and felt that what she said last night was a bit redundant.

Anyway... it's just a stranger.

Xie Tao clicked on the option to delete friends, and then clicked.

But at this moment, her mobile phone suddenly got stuck and stopped moving on the page of deleting friends. No matter how she clicked on the screen, there was no response at all.

At this moment, the lady proprietor of the breakfast shop came over with a bowl of cold noodles and porridge and put them on her table.

Xie Tao said thank you, and then continued to play with the phone.

After a while, her mobile phone seemed to react, she quit the page all at once, and returned to normal.

Xie Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

She has no money for another cell phone.

But when she looked at the WeChat interface, she found that the WeChat that she had just pressed the delete friend option was still staying in her WeChat friend.

"..."

Forget it.

Xie Tao put down the phone, took out the chopsticks in the bamboo tube, wiped it with a paper towel, stirred the red oil chili on the cold noodles, and ate it with a bowl of vegetable porridge.

Life in Qizhen is the taste of chili that is indispensable from morning to night.

Xie Tao likes it here.

After breakfast, Xie Tao returned to Fujia Cake Shop and began to make today's shortbread candy.

Perhaps it was because she was always thinking about Zhou Xinyue's affairs. Xie Tao took off her gloves after the first batch of peanut candy last night, picked up her mobile phone and started looking for something in the chat history between her and Zhou Xinyue. .

Xie Tao remembered that Zhou Xinyue had told her her home phone number before.

Throughout the morning, Xie Tao made that call several times, but no one answered.

This made Xie Tao's heart more and more flustered.

In the afternoon, Fu Miaolan came back from outside, and when she entered the door, she saw Xie Tao sitting at the counter in a daze, looking worried.

"Taotao, what do you think?" Fu Miaolan handed her a bottle of fresh milk bought outside.

Xie Tao recovered, and quickly reached out to take it, "Thank you Aunt Fu."

But while holding the milk bottle, Xie Tao hesitated for a while while pursing her lips before raising her eyes to Fu Miaolan again, "Aunt Fu..."

"Why do you hesitate, kid?"

Fu Miaolan was impatient. Seeing her like this, she poke her forehead with her finger, and then continued to fiddle with her bag.

Xie Tao touched her forehead and finally said, "Aunt Fu, I...I want to go to Nanshi for a few days."

When Fu Miaolan heard what she said, she felt a little strange, "Didn't you just say last night and couldn't go back?"

"Or you figured it out? Now that I figured it out, why just go back and stay for a few days?" Fu Miaolan laughed and patted her shoulder, "Tao Tao, that's right, you have to go home. , Go back and study hard!"

Xie Tao shook her head, "No, Aunt Fu."

"Do you remember? I told you that I have a friend named Zhou Xinyue."

"I want to see her."

Fu Miaolan seemed to have heard her mention it, but seeing Xie Tao's thin and thin appearance, she was a little uneasy, "Would you like Aunt Fu to accompany you?"

"No need, Aunt Fu, you accompany me, what should Fuhua do? Don't worry, I can do it myself." Xie Tao said.

After talking with Fu Miaolan, early the next morning, she went to the station in Qizhen.

I took the car to Linzhou City, and then Xie Tao took the high-speed train again, and in two or three hours, he arrived in Nanshi.

It's just that I haven't returned here for more than a year. It seems that everything here hasn't changed.

Xie Tao had been to Zhou Xinyue's house before, and when she was in Qizhen, she had sent her some sweets. She knew the exact location of Zhou Xinyue's house.

When she found it, she had just taken the elevator to the eighth floor. As soon as she got out of the elevator, she happened to ran into a middle-aged woman who was hurriedly carrying a thermos barrel and came over.

"Aunt Yan?"

Xie Tao recognized that it was Zhou Xinyue's mother.

"you are……"

Yan Xiping looked at the girl who suddenly appeared before him for a long time before remembering, "Are you Xie Tao?"

"Yes, Aunt Yan." Xie Tao nodded.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, but your child hasn't changed much." Yan Qiuping smiled.

Xie Tao bent her lips, as if she was a little embarrassed, but thinking of Zhou Xinyue, she hurriedly asked her, "Aunt Yan, is Yueyue there?"

Yan Xiping still had a little smile at first, but when she heard Xie Tao mention Zhou Xinyue, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and her whole person looked a little heavy.

At this moment, Xie Tao noticed the tired cyan and the bloodshot eyes in her eyes.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Xin Yue...in the hospital."

When Yan Xiping said this, her eyes turned red again.
