The Boyfriend Who I’ve Never Met

Chapter 4: Who are you (catching bugs)

Xie Tao never thought that the day she would see Zhou Xinyue goodbye would be in the hospital.

What a lively and cheerful person is the fat girl who has been protecting her in memory, but when she is standing outside the ward, Xie Tao sees her lying sideways on the bed through the glass window on the door, with her back facing her back. , She suddenly noticed that everything seemed to be different from before.

"It doesn't matter if you are here, you can talk to her more."

Yan Xiping stood beside Xie Tao and sighed softly, "She wouldn't say a word to me and her father."

She knew that for her daughter Xin Yue, Xie Tao was her best friend.

Xie Tao nodded, then she unscrewed the doorknob and walked in.

When the girl lying on the bed heard the clear footsteps, she still didn't turn her head back. She was lying on her side, her eyes looked out the window, but her eyes were dull and empty.

"Xin Yue."

Until Xie Tao stood still by her bed and called out softly.

Perhaps because she was so familiar with her voice, the **** the bed reacted almost as soon as Xie Tao made her voice.

Her eyelashes trembled.

At last there seemed to be a glimmer in those eyes.

Xie Tao waited for a long time before seeing the girl lying on the bed slowly turning around and looking at her.

Zhou Xinyue in front of her, her face pale, her lips chapped, her eyes with a smile that seemed to have lost all the light at this moment, a piece of gray.

At that moment, Xie Tao had many things to ask her, but they couldn't say it anymore.

Looking at Zhou Xinyue's cast right leg, she was standing there, and her eyes suddenly became sore.

"Peach..."

Zhou Xinyue stared at Xie Tao beside the bed for a long time, then moved her chapped lips and called her name.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Xinyue sat up and twitched the corners of her mouth, her voice sounding calm.

She even curled the corners of her mouth, seeming to ask easily, "Didn't you say that you never want to return to Nanshi?"

"I sent you a message and you didn't answer, and I didn't answer the phone. I just wanted to come and see you..." Xie Tao pursed her lips and said softly.

"I lost my mobile phone. I'm sorry, I worried you." Zhou Xinyue lowered her eyes and said.

After saying this, the ward fell into silence again.

Xie Tao stood there for a while, then took out a box from her backpack and handed it to Zhou Xinyue, "Xinyue, this is the shortbread candy I made for you, your favorite chocolate flavor."

If it were Zhou Xinyue from the past, she would definitely take it happily, and even kiss Xie Tao on the cheek.

But at the moment Zhou Xinyue looked a little too calm when she saw the box of crisp candy Xie Tao handed to her.

"Tao Tao, I don't want to eat these things anymore."

She did not reach out to pick it up.

Xie Tao's hand holding the box froze. She stared at Zhou Xinyue's overly pale face for a long time before asking, "Xin Yue, are you hiding something from me?"

Xie Tao sat down by her bed, threw the box aside, and reached out to support Zhou Xinyue's shoulder, "What's the matter with you?"

Perhaps after seeing the worry and anxiety in Xie Tao's apricot eyes, Zhou Xinyue looked a little lost when she looked at her.

Her tears came without warning, one by one, they fell on the back of Xie Tao's hand.

It seemed that for a moment, she had countless words backlogged in her heart that she wanted to tell Xie Tao in front of her, but her lips moved, and she still didn't say anything.

She had already lost her desire to talk.

"Taodao, you go, I'm sleepy."

In the end, she gently took away Xie Tao's hand holding her shoulder, lay down again, pulled the quilt to cover herself, and turned her back to her again.

At this moment, Xie Tao clearly noticed that there seemed to be an insurmountable gap between her and Zhou Xinyue in front of her.

"Xin Yue, I will see you again."

Xie Tao stood up, and when she turned to leave, she thought for a while and put the box of sweets on the head of her bed.

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Zhou Xinyue, who was lying on the bed, turned her head and stared at the box of crisp candy beside the bed for a long time.

Tears were always accumulating in those eyes.

Later, she sat up again, took the box of sweets, and opened it.

The sweet chocolate scent was close at hand, and Zhou Xinyue tentatively put it into his mouth, reaching out to pick up a piece of crisp candy.

The next moment, she was lying on the bedside and vomiting.

Later, she was choked and coughed, and tears flowed down her eyes. She rolled over and shrank on the bed and wrapped herself in a quilt.

She trembled, crying hard and desperate.

——

When Xie Tao left the hospital and walked down the street alone, she was full of words that Yan Xiping had said to her just after leaving the ward.

Zhou Xinyue is sick.

It is a severe depression.

And because of emotions such as self-abortion caused by depression, she also suffered from anorexia.

"Tao Tao, I don't want to eat these things anymore."

Xie Tao suddenly remembered what Zhou Xinyue had said. She stood on the sidewalk with people coming and going. When she raised her head, she was pierced by the sunlight from the sky.

She transferred to Nanshi from the fourth grade of elementary school.

At that time, Xie Tao became extremely introverted and dull because of Su Linghua's irritable mood.

For a while, she was once the target of bullying by other classmates.

Children’s malice is always unreasonable. Maybe they just think it’s fun, or maybe they think that she doesn’t have a father, which is different from them.

Xie Tao is often bullied in school, and she has to endure all kinds of harshness her mother is doing to her when she goes home.

Until one day, Zhou Xinyue, who was forced to transfer to another school because of a fight with other boys, became her tablemate.

Since that day, Xie Tao has never been bullied by anyone.

Because everyone knows that she has a friend who can fight.

Because Zhou Xinyue, Xie Tao at that time, finally saw a little light in life.

Also because of her, Xie Tao began to become more outgoing, no longer taciturn, no longer alone.

It was Zhou Xinyue who helped her out of the lonely predicament and gave her the courage to live.

She is Xie Tao's most cherished friend in her life.

Xie Tao could not imagine that Zhou Xinyue, who had protected her from bullying, had become the target of campus violence.

"Xin Yue told us that she wanted to transfer school. Neither her father nor I took it seriously. How did she know that she suffered such a hardship?"

When Yan Xiping mentioned this incident, she couldn't help but shed tears.

Because of long-term verbal and physical threats of violence, Zhou Xinyue fell from the second floor in a trance more than a month ago and broke her leg.

Later, the hospital found that she was suffering from severe depression.

Even anorexia.

At that time, Yan Xiping seemed to be struck by a thunderstorm and fainted on the spot.

In more than a month, Zhou Xinyue tried to commit suicide twice.

Fortunately, Yan Xiping found out in time, otherwise Zhou Xinyue would have died long ago.

Yan Xiping said that because the school's surveillance could not find any evidence that those girls bullied Zhou Xinyue, there is no way to resolve this matter up to now.

How long has Zhou Xinyue been subjected to violence? Xie Tao couldn't imagine.

Sitting on the chair at the bus stop, Xie Tao stared blankly at the bus parked on the side of the road, until it drove away, she still sat there, her eyes blushing.

The anger in her heart was mixed with sour emotions, her knuckles gradually tightened, and she clenched into fists.

Her mind was full of Zhou Xinyue's pale face, and even those gray eyes.

Those people tortured her best friend into this look, but they still lived their lives in peace of mind, unaffected by any influence, and did not pay any price.

But they should pay the price.

When the sky was getting darker, Xie Tao found a cheap hotel to stay.

While rummaging through the clothes in her schoolbag, she unexpectedly found a pile of cash.

There are more than one thousand yuan.

There is no doubt that this should have been put in her bag by Fu Miaolan.

Her eyes were a little hot, Xie Tao held the stack of money and sat on the bed for a while. Finally, she took out her mobile phone and dialed the phone.

"Auntie Fu."

After the call was connected, Xie Tao first yelled.

"Taotao, where are you now?" Fu Miaolan's voice sounded very happy.

"I'm in the hotel." Xie Tao answered truthfully.

When Fu Miaolan heard this, she quickly said, "Did you look for that cheap hotel? Taotao, don't be reluctant to spend money. You're out alone, so be careful!"

"I know……"

Listening to Fu Miaolan's voice, Xie Tao felt her verbal concern.

When the eyes were hot, tears fell.

"Aunt Fu..." Her throat moved, her voice choked a little, "Did you secretly put money in my bag?"

"Oh, Taotao, why are you crying well? Aunt Fu is not afraid that you are out alone. It is always good to bring more money with you." Fu Miaolan said on the phone.

"Why are you hiding in my clothes..." Xie Tao wiped away tears and sniffed.

Fu Miaolan laughed, deliberately teasing her, "Suddenly found a wad of money, are you surprised?"

Xie Tao tightened her lips, tears fell again, she tightened her knuckles, and squeezed her phone tightly.

"Taotao, don't have a burden on you. The more than one thousand yuan is what you deserve, and it is the bonus given to you by Aunt Fu, so you can take it."

Fu Miaolan seemed to have guessed her thoughts, and when she saw that she was not speaking, she added another sentence.

"Aunt Fu,"

Xie Tao moved her lips, choked up and said, "I might...I won't be back for the time being."

This is the decision she made when she was sitting at the bus stop in the afternoon.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. After a while, Xie Tao heard Fu Miaolan laugh again, "Tao Tao, you are only seventeen years old, you should be at the age of school, just figure it out."

"I will come back to see you..." Xie Tao said softly to the end of the phone.

After the phone was hung up, Xie Tao wiped away the tears from her face, and turned her head to look out the window at the night lit by neon colors.

This is South City.

This is the place Xie Tao hates most in her life.

If she could, she would never want to come back here again.

But this time, she must stay.

The phone shook suddenly, Xie Tao recovered, unlocked the lock and opened WeChat.

It turned out to be the WeChat account without a name.

"who are you"

Only these three words are still in a vertical line.

Xie Tao felt a little strange, but couldn't tell.

She clicked on the dialog box and replied:

"and who are you?"

She didn't know that the moment she clicked to send, her WeChat was transformed into a sealed letter and appeared on a book case in another time and space.

Wei Yun watched with his own eyes the pale golden streamer of the copper pendant gradually condensing into a letter, but he was always calm.

It's just that there is always a dark color in the depths of those amber eyes.

On the envelope is still the words "Wei Yun's Pro-Qi".

He stretched out his hand to open the envelope and pulled out the sprinkled piece of letter paper inside.

There are only four characters on it, with a strange symbol, still in a horizontal order from left to right.

The letter paper was squeezed into a ball again in his hands, and Wei Yun looked down at the seemingly ordinary copper pendant on the book case, his eyes gloomy.

This bronze pendant is obviously related to those mysterious light curtains that seem like illusions.

And this mysterious person hiding behind the bronze wear may be the key to solving the mystery.

Wei Yun didn't like this feeling of being out of control.

He must find out the identity of this mysterious person.

If necessary, he will completely eradicate all the unstable factors behind this bronze pendant.

Also... this mysterious person who doesn't know the origin.

"Wei Jing."

Wei Yun suddenly raised his head and looked out the door with his fingers buckled on the table top.

"grown ups."

Having been guarding the door, the man in black attire immediately walked in and bowed respectfully to Wei Yun in salute.

"Son of Shao Anhe, where is it now?"

Wei Yun held the bronze pendant in his hand, and when he raised his eyes to look at Wei Jing, his expression was faint.
