When You’re Gone

Chapter 217: Gamble

It was getting late, and she couldn't see anything even if she went out at this time, plus she was really unfamiliar with this place, what if there was an accident?

Although she knew that Lu Jinsheng would definitely not let this accident happen.

Entering the house, Lin's wife just came out of the dining room and looked at her, "Mrs., come over and eat something," she moved her eyes to her feet and found that she was walking barefoot in a cold place, she said oops. : "Why don't you wear shoes?"

Liang Shu glanced down, didn't care, didn't answer her words, and walked directly into the restaurant.

Sister Lin saw her look very cold and alienated, so she couldn't say anything, so she went upstairs in silence to take off her shoes.

I can only say that I am fortunate that Mr. Lu is not here, otherwise they will definitely be scolded by Mr. Lu.

On the table, there was a bowl of white porridge, a stir-fried greens, and a soup, all still steaming.

Liang Shu opened the chair and sat down, holding the spoon with his fingers and closing his eyes before raising his hand to scoop a spoonful of porridge.

Now it seems that eating has become a psychological obstacle. She remembers that she never came before. Those naive at sea consumed too much energy.

Just like in the past, even if others say it, she never felt thin, because since ancient times, women love beauty, and she only thinks that she is slim.

But now, looking at herself in the mirror, she only felt very strange.

There was no light in his eyes, and there was no flesh on his face. It seemed to be a little disfigured, and there was no vitality or vitality. It was like a walking dead.

But Lu Jinsheng was right, she would not die.

Jiujiu is still waiting for her at home, she must be very anxious after not seeing her for so many days.

And Gu Hansheng, she didn't even have time to digest the news. It turned out that what he said before was true, and his father's life was hidden behind the so-called hardship.

After going back, she must ask in person.

As long as she is still alive, there must be a chance.

Thinking of this, Liang Shu slowly fed a spoonful of hot porridge into her mouth, with a firm expression on the bottom of her eyes. This time she no longer swallowed it directly like in the afternoon. She chewed slowly with her teeth until her mouth was filled with the scent of starch. Just give up.

When she had the third bite, Lin Lin came back. She put her slippers upright next to her feet, "Madam, put on your shoes. Your body is not very good, so it will be easier to catch a cold." ."

But Liang Shu just took a look and said nothing. He didn't understand Lin's love.

Lin's wife was a little embarrassed, but at best she could only persuade, and could not really force Liang Shu.

The people working here, from Wife Lin to bodyguards, to a certain extent, they even know that Liang Shu is actually more important than Lu Jinsheng.

Liang Shu was eating quietly, and Lin's wife didn't leave, so she stood quietly and watched her.

After eating half of the bowl of rice porridge, she didn't move much anymore. Upon seeing this, Lin Sao stepped forward and gave her a half bowl of bone broth to stew for half an afternoon. She smiled, "Madam, drink Order this."

The bone soup was white in color and rich in fragrance, with no oily water on the surface. Liang Shu took a sip and felt that the taste was very weak, so he put it down.

She asked Lin's wife, "Where is Lu Jinsheng?"

Sister Lin shook her head, "Mr. Lu is out."

"Then where did he go?"

"This... we don't know."

In fact, she just asked casually, it is absolutely impossible for him to tell these servants where Lu Jinsheng is going.

She put down the spoon, got up and walked outside.

She only glanced at the shoes that Lin's wife had taken off for her. She was still barefoot and walked out, her body was thin, but her back was straight.

In the villa, she can go around at will. There are actually several exits on the first floor, passing from the side hall, and then passing through a long corridor full of transparent glass, to the observation deck on the first floor. The observation deck opens here. A door, going out from here, is the beach.

But the door was locked.

She walked around on the first floor and found nothing related to the Internet, no phone, not even a TV.

It seems that Lu Jinsheng really intends to imprison her on this island.

Even if it is approaching dusk, the air here is warm and hot, but it is not as dry and hot as a pure tropical climate. The temperature during the day may be a little higher, and at this time, everything is the most suitable.

The wind is very comfortable and the temperature is just right.

Liang Shu is searching in her mind about some places in the world that have such a climate, but her brain capacity is limited after all, and she is not an expert in this area.

She walked back and found that Lin's Wife was not far away from her. This was simply a live surveillance.

Liang Shu didn't get angry, but her face was not pretty. She said to Lin's wife, "I want to read a book. Is there any book to read?"

Sister Lin was startled and nodded hurriedly, "There are some, and there is the husband's study room on the second floor. There are many books to read in it."

When he reached the stairs on the second floor, Liang Shu's expression became colder when Lin saw her still following her. He turned to look at her, "Can you not follow me?"

"I'm just afraid that your wife will have any needs at any time."

"I don't have any needs. It's best if none of you should appear in front of me. This villa can't even fly a mosquito. There are bodyguards at the door. Where can I go? Besides, even if I go out, Can I still swim away from this island?"

Liang Shu interrupted Lin's wife abruptly. After trying her best to say such a long speech, she was a little tight in the chest and short of breath. She held her fingers tightly on the handrails of the stairs and closed her eyes to ease her breath.

Lin's wife stood there with embarrassment.

In fact, all this was what Mr. Lu meant, but she couldn't say that, so she had to stand silently and didn't speak.

Liang Shu clenched his fingers, opened his eyes, and returned to the expressionless expression on his face, "Don't follow me anymore, I will say if I have any needs."

After speaking, she turned and walked towards the corridor on the second floor, her back still arrogant and thin.

There were not many rooms on the second floor, so she opened the second door and found it.

The overall style of the house is bright, with a strong modern atmosphere, and almost every room has a good viewing experience.

The study room is also in the style of floor-to-ceiling windows. There is a small terrace outside. The entire wall on the right hand side of the door is full of books, the middle is a desk, and the ground is covered with a circular carpet. On the left are some delicate gadgets.

At this moment, the beautiful scenery outside was unobstructed, but Liang Shu was not in that mood. She turned on the lights, and the room suddenly lit up.

There was the sound of footsteps in the corridor, and she turned her head to look over. A fat shadow was reflected under the dim light and shadow. She felt very upset and slammed the door loudly.

There are many books on the shelf.

She searched a lot next to the shelf. Most of them were original books, or literary treatises, or professional knowledge in related fields. They were mostly commercial, and there was a place where some fast food literature was placed.

This type of book is most suitable for girls to pass the time in their free time.

After searching for a while, I almost didn't find anything related to geography, or even any introduction to local customs.

This island seems to be quite big, because when they came that night, the car seemed to have drove around the road around the island for some time to get here. Liang Shu could not estimate the exact time. She was in a semi-conscious state at the time.

However, all signs indicate that there are probably no other people on this island at all, because the scenery out of the window is clean and quiet, and there is no sign of anyone.

Liang Shu suddenly understood that this might be Lu Jinsheng's private island.

He brought her here all the way, and it seems that he hasn't left these days. Is he planning to give up everything?

Thinking of this, Liang Shu suddenly felt a coolness slowly rising from his back.

Is Lu Jinsheng really planning to trap her here for the rest of his life?

She still had a book in her hand that she didn’t know what the text was. The carpet under her feet was very soft. She threw the book aside and walked slowly to the window. A faint shadow of her was reflected on the glass window, which was very unreal. a feeling of.

Soon, she ran out of the study and asked Lin's wife who was still standing around the corner: "Are there any books about geography or introducing customs?"

Wife Lin didn't quite understand, she returned: "Mr.'s bookshelf has a lot of books, there should be on them."

Liang Shu stopped talking.

Wife Lin didn't know what she was thinking, she smiled and said, "You want to read books of this type. I'll tell my husband later that he can buy them for you."

"No need," Liang Shu refused coldly, then turned and walked away. After two steps, she looked back at Lin's wife, "Don't tell him I think this kind of book, I just asked casually. There are so many books on the shelf. Enough for me."

"Hey, yes." Lin Sao nodded.

Back to the study, Liang Shu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

She squatted down slowly, and a kind of despair gradually spread in her eyes. It was obvious that she had just cheered herself up not long ago, saying that as long as she was alive, there was hope, but why didn't she see a glimmer of dawn now?

Lu Jinsheng was a burden for her when she didn't love her in the past.

She must be her now, and it is a torture.

I don't know how long it took, someone knocked on the door, Liang Shu heard the knock, his eyes flashed, but he ignored it.

The knock on the door lasted three times, and seeing no one answered, Lin's wife directly opened the door.

After opening the door, she found a figure squatting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. She secretly breathed out, Lin Sao walked in lightly, put the scented tea in her hand on the desk, and whispered to Liang Shu, "Mrs. Of tea, you can drink two sips when you are free."

After a while, the sound of footsteps gradually moved away, and the door was gently closed again, as if nothing had happened just now.

Liang Shu squatted tired and felt dizzy. She sat on the ground with her knees on her knees, looking at the sky and the sea outside the window.

At this moment, the sun had completely set, and the sea was misty and dark, not quite like the sea, but rather like a forest.

On the calm sea, there were no ships, only countless seabirds flying on it.

Liang Shu stayed in the study for two or three hours, so she did nothing and looked out the window. Feeling really tired behind her, she got up.

There was a cup of cold tea on the desk, and some opened books beside it. She looked down and found that some places were sketched out on it.

Her eyelashes quivered twice, and Lu Jinsheng spent time here when she wanted to come to sleep.

After standing for nearly two minutes, Liang Shu picked up the cup of tea, tilted his fingers slightly, and poured all the water in the cup straight onto the open book.

After she was finished, she seemed to be puzzled. She took the handle of the quilt and turned to look at the transparent French window. Then her eyes flashed and she took two steps forward.

In the next second, she directly smashed the quilt in her hand on the glass window.

With a "bang", the glass cup shattered instantly when it met the hard tempered glass, and the fragments splashed around. One piece even rubbed her cheek. The sharp glass shards scratched her skin with a very faint blood mark. The instant pain was very sharp.

But Liang Shu never blinked his eyes once when he looked at the glass window that was intact.

She walked towards the door barefoot.

All the way back to the bedroom, I don't know what time it is now. I didn't even wash my feet, so I went to bed directly.

Maybe she had eaten and regained her vitality, and she went to sleep again quickly.

...

In the middle of the night, the moonlight slowly poured a stream of light from the window into the house.

There is no light in the house, but the general outline of the house can still be seen clearly by the moonlight.

She locked the door before entering the room.

Opened his eyes at the moment, there was a dark figure sitting by the bed, and the man's hand was reaching out to him, Liang Shu's heart trembled, his mind was instantly clear, and he stretched out his hand and grasped his hand accurately.

Her fingers are gentle, but the man's hand doesn't carry any temperature, it's warm and cool.

Liang Shu suddenly remembered a cold-blooded animal, and they were like this too.

She prevented him from approaching herself, and then leaned towards the depths of the bed, looking at him warily.

In the quiet room, a man's low and deep voice sounded, and it seemed to be sighing, "Sao Lin said that you had something to eat at night. At first, I didn't believe it, but now it seems to be true?"

After all, he seemed to have more strength when he first grabbed his hand.

She didn't speak, and looked at him against the bedside.

"Why don't you wear shoes, eh? Although it's more pleasant here than Yucheng, the floor is always cooler, and you can catch a cold if you don't wear shoes. What if you step on something?"

Lu Jinsheng smiled at the corner of his lips, and he continued, "For example, the broken glass in the study area."

When it comes to broken glass, there seems to be a slight smile in his words.

Actually, when he came back, he asked Lin Sao Liangshu what she did tonight. Lin Sao said that she turned around on the first floor, and then when she wanted to read, she went to the study, and then spent two days in the study. Three hours.

After coming out, I went back to my room to sleep.

When Lu Jinsheng went to the second floor, he went to the study first. He didn't want to know what books she read in the study, but he was curious about her staying in the study for two or three hours.

When I opened the door and went in, I smelled a faint tea fragrance, and then the broken glass in front of the French windows.

His eyes darkened a few degrees, his face was as usual, and he couldn't see the emotions.

Only later, when his eyes touched the books on the desk soaked with tea, his face was rarely softened, and the corners of his mouth even sketched out a faint smile. It might not be a good thing for her to become emotional when doing things.

Compared to her lifeless, Lu Jinsheng preferred her to lose her temper.

It’s just that the cracked cup didn’t look like it was broken on the ground. There were some water stains on the window glass. Later, Lu Jinsheng went to watch the surveillance video in the study and found that she really threw the quilt on the glass. The window just broke.

In the picture, Lu Jinsheng also saw the detail that the splashing glass shards scratched her face.

At this moment, the light in the room was very dark, and she lowered her head slightly, her long hair covering most of her face, Lu Jinsheng could not see the scars on her face at all.

He sat forward and stretched out his hand to her. Liang Shu had no way to retreat at this moment. She gritted her teeth and said, "Don't touch me."

Lu Jinsheng's fingers froze in mid-air for a moment, and then he stretched out her long hair in his own way. Liang Shu resisted and raised his voice, "Lu Jinsheng, I told you not to touch me!"

"Is this touching you?" His eyes were sharp, but his tone was still understatement, and said, "A Shu, you are a married person. You should know what touching is."

For the last word, he has a particularly strong tone.

Hearing this, Liang Shu suddenly raised his head to look at him, finally showing some horror in his eyes, his teeth biting his lower lip tightly, watching his eyes look like enemies.

At this time, Liang Shu finally stopped struggling.

Lu Jinsheng stretched out his hand and turned on the warm-colored table lamp beside the bed, and this area suddenly lit up.

He pushed her long hair away with one hand, and pinched her chin with the other hand to make her tilt her head slightly. The small wound on her cheek was crusted, and the blood had clotted on it, and it looked more than the corner of her right eye. The red tear mole was bigger.

Even though I have lost a lot of weight now, this face is still beautiful.

These are the best eyes he has ever seen in his life.

In the past, he was reluctant to admit it, but along the way, some of the emotions hidden in the deepest seemed to be no longer able to be suppressed. Even if it were, he had to live for himself.

Liang Shu tilted his head slightly, freed his chin from his hand, and stared at him.

Lu Jinsheng smiled, "I am quite happy when you look at me like this."

She lowered her gaze, fingers tightly gripped the bedding under her, and whispered: "When are you going out? I'm sleepy."

"Sleepy? That's just right, I'm almost the same, then together..."

Before Lu Jinsheng spoke, he was interrupted by Liang Shu, "Get out--"

She said that she raised her hand and wanted to slap him, but was intercepted by Lu Jinsheng. The man's eyes met the hateful eyes. He stared at her, but in a short moment, he shifted the front of the conversation. Say, "Don't you want a gun during the day? I brought you."

Before Liang Shu spoke, he saw that his left hand took out something from his waist. Soon, a delicate black pistol was turned in his hand several times.

He grabbed her hand, put the cold and hard thing on her hand, and then guided her to hold the gun.

Liang Shu looked at the thing in her hand with cold eyes all the time, and soon, she pressed the index finger of her right hand against the black trigger, and she suddenly had an urge to pull it down.

And Lu Jinsheng slowly released his hand, holding the black hole's muzzle with his fingers, and pulling it over against his chest, staring at her for an instant, "Will you shoot? Just pull that thing away with your fingers. "

Liang Shu stared at the place where his fingers were holding, and the other end was near his heart.

Her fingers trembled several times, and then she said with a sneer, "How do I know if there is a bullet in it?"

After all, for her, Lu Jinsheng is a cunning person.

His laughter came over his head, which sounded strange in this quiet night.

The next two changes came too fast. Almost before she had time to react, the gun she was holding returned to Lu Jinsheng in an instant. In the next second, he held the thing and turned his finger towards the dressing. Mirror, her eyes kept falling on her face.

"Bang--" with a loud voice.

The gunfire sounded in this quiet dark night, deafening enough to disturb the seabirds parked on the tree outside, and the mirror was also torn apart as the bullet passed through.

The sound of crashing glass shattered to the ground.

Liang Shu's eyes were full of panic, his face was pale, his pupils dilated, and the sound in his ears buzzed, watching what had just happened in disbelief.

But Lu Jinsheng didn't react much, and white smoke was still emitting from the muzzle, a smell of gunpowder filled.

He hooked his lips coldly, flipped his fingers to reload the bullet, and then put the gun in her hand again, holding the muzzle against his chest as usual. He said, "Do you still believe it now?"

Liang Shu couldn't calm down, her whole body was shaking, and her eyes were complicated. She looked at her hand, her lips tightly pressed.

And Lu Jinsheng’s voice fell on her eardrum like a curse: "A Shu, don’t you want me to die? I give you a chance now. If you miss this time, you can’t want me to die in the future. ."

"Pull the trigger, and all this can be over." He dropped his voice.

Liang Shu's face suddenly became a little bit painful, and her eyes were a little moist. She looked up at his face, then went back to the gun that had just fired in her hand, and her fingers shook more severely.

Seeing her suddenly smile like this, Lu Jinsheng took a step back with his fingers, shook her hand, and squeezed it tightly, "Have you never killed anyone like this? So it feels painful, right? But who am I, I am Lu Jinsheng, you are the one who has decided to pester you for a lifetime. Whether you are married, whether you have a family, or whether you have other men you like, don't you want to get rid of such people?"

Tears rolled down her eyes, and the lower lip she was biting on was almost bleeding from her. She couldn't control her hand, but there was really no way to really listen to him pulling the trigger.

"A Shu, you think about it clearly. The sand man is a momentary matter, and everything is over when the gun is fired. When a person dies, it is just a corpse, no different from a piece of meat."

"Hurry up, pull the trigger, A Shu."

She kept trembling eyelashes, her nose was red, and her mouth was slightly open as if she could not breathe. He said that the moment she pulled the trigger, Liang Shu closed her eyes abruptly. Soon, she pulled back her fingers hard, that one The gun fell on the quilt.

Lu Jinsheng looked at her, her eyes a little red, but she didn't know what she was thinking.

It should be happy?

Does she want to kill him or just do not want to kill?

He thinks it should be the former.

He has always been a man of dangerous moves. The time just now was probably the most decisive and least retreat bet in his life. He completely opened himself before her.

In addition, he wanted to bet whether it was possible between him and her.

And this possibility has a bigger stakes, it's his life to bet.

He went to her reaction, Liang Shu lowered his head, tears falling on her trembling hands drop by drop.

Lu Jinsheng stretched out her long hair, and at that moment, a warm drop of water hit the back of his hand, and then fell into the quilt along the back of his hand. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face.

However, seeing Liang Shu looking at him dimly with tears, she looked very pitiful, as if she had been forced out of the most fragile thing in her heart by the scene just now. Her voice rarely brought some pleadings, "You let me go, let me go back."

Lu Jinsheng's eyes were very pitiful, and his voice was soft. He looked at her and shook his head, "Impossible."

"Lu Jinsheng, we won't be able to do it in this life. I'll talk about it in the next life, okay?"

Lu Jinsheng wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes again and smiled, "A Shu, you know, this life alone is painful enough, how can there be any next life..." His palm was wet, and he looked at her calmly. Say, "If it does, then I promise you that I won't meet you in my next life. After a hundred years, you have to have a good fetus. Don't be like this. If you meet me, you will never get rid of it."

Liang Shu shook his head, bit his lip and said vaguely, "Let you put it down, and we can all get rid of it. It's very painful, isn't it? I was the one who killed Liang Xiyin and Lu Yao, why would you think of telling me? Together..."

"I don't care about those, I only want you now," his eyes were a little ethereal, and he sneered: "If you have the ability, you can find a way to escape, but it's better not to let me know."

He withdrew his hand, picked up the gun, unloaded the magazine neatly, and said, "The thing that you asked for those books to Lin's wife today has never happened, A Shu, you should be very clear in your heart. , There is no one on this island except us. Even if you know where this is, you can’t tell Gu Hansheng unless you really have the ability to disappear here."

After finishing packing, he got up, reached out his hand to turn off the lamp beside him, and stood by the bed looking at her, "Go to bed, I won't move you for the time being. Someone will clean up the things in the room tomorrow morning. When I get out of bed Remember to wear shoes."

He stepped on the broken glass and walked towards the door, as if he was still not at ease. He looked back at the faint bump on the bed and added: "A Shu, don't think of torturing me by torturing your own body. In the end it will only hurt yourself."

And Liang Shu was lying on the bed with his back facing him, motionless, and didn't know if he was asleep.

After waiting for a while, he still said, "You didn't choose to shoot at the right time, otherwise, I'm dead, A Shu, you will be the only one left on the island by then, how do you go back?" After a pause, "As for the bodyguard servants, you can treat them as if they don't exist."

The sound of footsteps went away, and the door was completely closed, and Liang Shu slowly opened his eyes, and slowly began to loosen his hand holding the quilt tightly.

...

Early the next morning, Lu Jinsheng came to take her downstairs.

The broken glass in the room hadn't been cleaned up, so he waited patiently for her to wash up, and when he was done, he hugged her downstairs and went all the way to the dining room.

After last night, Liang Shu knew that it was useless to resist, so he didn't waste energy.

But when she went downstairs, she discovered that every part of the house was covered with a soft carpet, and no corners were left.

Lu Jinsheng noticed the look in her eyes. He put her on the chair and sat down, raising his eyebrows and said, "Although it's a little troublesome, it's not too difficult."
