On the train, Li Rui heard Wu Haibo introduce Shao Xuan's boyfriend Dong Peng.

This person was uneducated and had no skills since he was a child. He got into fights. When he was in his twenties, he went to the vegetable market with an older brother. Later, he set up his own logistics company and entertainment city. He was a businessman on the outside, but no one knew what he was doing behind the scenes.

Yunmeng City is also a famous person.

Dong Peng has a surly and irritable temperament. When he first got together with Shao Xuan, he met Wu Haibo and others several times, and each time the atmosphere became very tense. He was also very strict with Shao Xuan and didn't like her coming out to meet friends.

As time went by, people no longer called themselves Shao Xuan when they got together.

They didn't expect Dong Peng to come this time, so they all awkwardly stepped forward to say hello.

Dong Peng grinned and said: I have something else to do, so I won’t eat with you. Order more dishes, expensive ones, whatever you want, lobster and abalone, don’t save money for me, otherwise you will look down on me!

Wu Haibo quickly said: Brother Peng, we will definitely not be polite to you!

You eat slowly. Li Rui, I will arrange for you to sing another day! Dong Peng patted Li Rui on the shoulder, picked up the Gucci handbag, and walked away.

A moment later, a BMW X5 roared out of the parking lot, raising a cloud of dust.

After Dong Peng left, the atmosphere relaxed. Li Rui looked at Shao Xuan seriously and said: Why are you thinner than when I came back two years ago?

Shao Xuan smiled and said: She would be more beautiful if she were thinner!

A few people chatted while going upstairs and entered private room 222.

After sitting down, Shao Xuan said: "This is Dong Peng's treat. You can order whatever you want."

Wu Haibo said: Not too bad, right?

Shao Xuan said: His money is not wasted or spent. If you don’t order, I will ask the waiter to order the biggest Australian lobster. Abalone, geoduck, prawn. Are the crabs good now?

She ordered more than a dozen dishes in one breath, and only gave up after being strongly stopped by everyone, but then she said: A few bottles of good wine, the most expensive kind!

Everyone was a little embarrassed and no one said anything.

When the wine arrived, Shao Xuan held the bottle and said: This bottle of wine costs more than three thousand. Last time Dong Peng invited his friends to dinner and drank eight bottles, the price of the wine alone was more than twenty thousand. Let's not get drunk today.

Before anyone could say anything, she said again: I didn’t understand anything before, but since I was with Dong Peng, I have learned that there are tens of thousands of bottles of wine in the world, and a bag costs hundreds of thousands.

The price of clothes means my dad can’t even afford Brother Rui after working for a year. Do you remember my dad’s favorite car? I just gave him a BMW 3 Series a while ago, and he really likes it!

Li Rui listened silently. It was obviously the nouveau riche showoff that he hated the most, but why did it sound so disgusting and a trace of pity?

He Jiafan coughed, Xuan, I'll open the wine and let's talk while drinking.

Shao Xuan was stunned for a moment, then changed the subject with a smile and said: Li Rui, you haven't been back for several years. Is it because Haizhou is so fun that you don't want to come back? After the New Year, I asked Dong Peng to take me to Haizhou.

You have to be a good landlord!ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

Li Rui nodded lightly: OK. But his heart became more and more sad.

Anyone who is not a fool can tell that Shao Xuan is forcing a smile, and all the showing off seems to be to hide something.

In Li Rui's mind, Shao Xuan was the most beautiful girl on the street when he was a child. When she smiled, she had two sweet dimples on her face and her eyes were as crescent-shaped.

When the friends played house together, Shao Xuan was the mother, and the boys were vying to be the father. But every time, Shao Xuan was like a queen and personally selected Li Rui.

Later, everyone went to school in different places. Sometimes they would play together, and sometimes Li Rui and Shao Xuan would get together alone.

We went to the bookstore, each of us quietly picked a book, and spent the whole afternoon reading. Occasionally, when I got tired from reading, I looked up and saw a white skirt floating in the peripheral vision, which made me feel much calmer.

When she went to climb a mountain and competed to see who could reach the top first, Li Rui would give in to her every time and then give her a bottle of soda or an ice cream.

Most of the time, I still wander aimlessly on the street, hiding from the sun in the shade of trees and the drizzle under the eaves.

Many days related to youth passed by in such a dull and silent way. Maybe there were times when my heart was moved, but no one pointed it out.

Later, Li Rui's studies became increasingly stressful, and Shao Xuan went to study art in other places. They only had occasional contact, but their tracks gradually drifted away.

After Li Rui went to college and started working again, he had less and less time to go back to Yunshan. He could only see Shao Xuan once every year or two, and even communicated by phone and online less.

Li Rui only knew that Shao Xuan had a promiscuous boyfriend and lived a prosperous life.

But few people know that behind the abundance is deep darkness.

In his previous life, during the Spring Festival when Li Rui did not go home, a terrible murder occurred in Yunshan County. The murderer Dong Peng and the victim Shao Xuan.

It was only half a year later that Li Rui heard the news from Wu Haibo. Only then did he learn that the girl who had two dimples in her smile, who had played husband and wife with him, and who went to bookstores and climbed mountains to hide from the rain, had been stabbed twelve times by her domestically violent boyfriend.

knife

The reason why Dong Peng killed Shao Xuan was because she was unwilling to endure domestic violence and wanted to break up.

After hearing the news, Li Rui looked through the Penguin chat history and found a message from Shao Xuan sending him New Year greetings on New Year's Day. He asked him if he had returned to Yunshan, saying that he missed these friends and wanted to find time to get together.

Li Rui said that he stayed in Haizhou to work overtime, and after a few pleasantries, they stopped talking.

Less than two days after that chat, Shao Xuan was killed.

Li Rui later thought, if he had returned to Haizhou that year, would the story have been different? Could the girl with the dimples in her smile have changed her destiny?

During the Spring Festival of the next year, Li Rui returned to Yunshan. On the anniversary of Shao Xuan's death, he went to lay flowers in front of Shao Xuan's grave and had one after another drunken encounters with Wu Haibo, He Jiafan and Li Jiawei.

In this life, Li Rui will no longer spend the Spring Festival alone in Haizhou for 5,000 yuan. He will come back to accompany his parents, invest in his hometown, and save his friends.

Seafood dishes were put on the table, everyone drank and ate, and recalled the past. The atmosphere gradually relaxed, and a pure smile appeared on everyone's face.

Those childhood years of growing up together, whether it was crying or laughing, the pain of falling or the anger of quarrels, over time, they have become precious and beautiful memories.

Wu Haibo drank half a bottle of wine, his big head turned red, and he could speak freely. He patted Li Rui on the shoulder and said: Li Rui, you are so proud. It is not easy for us to meet Xuan. After hearing this,

He said you were coming back and immediately came to the party! You two have loved staying together since you were young!

As soon as these words came out, Li Jiawei echoed: That's right, when I was a child, Brother Rui always played with Sister Xuan, without me!

Why are you following me? Are you going to be a big shiny light bulb? Wu Haibo laughed and said, not only when they were children, but also when they were in high school, they often dated secretly!

As soon as these words came out, Li Rui's face turned red. He always thought it was a secret, but he didn't expect that Wu Haibo already knew it?
