The girl's voice was also gentle and soft, and only her eyes revealed strong emotions that were difficult to detect.
Xiao Ci frowned subconsciously and asked, "When did you come?"
"It's been a while." Su Ruotong replied, as if he had something to say, but in the end he just said in despair: "I've seen it all."
"Yeah." Xiao Ci nodded, without explaining, or in his opinion, there was no need to explain to Su Ruotong, so he walked upstairs.
Seeing this, Su Ruotong quickly followed.
After Xiao Ci noticed it, he stopped at the corner of the stairs, turned to look at her, and asked, "Is there anything else?"
With such a distant tone, even if Su Ruotong wanted to pretend not to feel it, it would be a bit difficult.
"I... have something to say." But Su Ruotong still secretly gathered courage and spoke.
"I don't want to hear it." Xiao Ci refused directly and continued walking forward.
Su Ruotong quickly blocked his way, stood on the steps, and said, "But I must say it."
Xiao Ci was too tall. Even though she had an extra step to stand on tiptoe, he could still look down at her.
Xiao Ci didn't speak, nor did he deliberately pretend to be his true self. A sense of oppression filled the air.
Su Ruotong swallowed in fear, but still asked fearlessly: "Is that girl just now Lin Zhiyi?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Xiao Ci asked her not to meddle in other people's business.
"Of course it's none of my business -" The love that had been hidden in her heart for many years almost came out of her mouth, but she stopped her abruptly.
For no other reason than that, she knew that he only wanted revenge and had no love for his children, let alone himself.
But as a girl who has a crush on him, he can not be tempted by him, but he cannot get close to any girl.
Even if she knew that he didn't really like Lin Zhiyi, she still felt very sad.
"Xiao Ci, I know you are eager for revenge, but Miss Lin is innocent, and I don't think you can do this."
Su Ruotong could not reveal her inner thoughts, so she could only persuade him in the name of justice.
"Innocent?" Xiao Ci seemed to have heard some joke and asked, "Aren't my parents innocent?"
Su Ruotong's heart tightened. Although she was afraid of arousing his resentment, she also knew that this could better reflect her kindness, so she bit the bullet and said, "But these are two different words."
"He is Lin Zhiyan's sister. You tell me that it's two different things?" Xiao Ci narrowed his eyes.
Su Ruotong was even more panicked. She didn't want to excuse Lin Zhiyi too much, not entirely out of fear, but to avoid Xiao Ci thinking about it and feeling guilty for Lin Zhiyi.
She hesitated for a while and shouted: "Xiao Ci..."
Su Ruotong deliberately looked like she was worried that he would go astray, as long as he understood what he meant.
Xiao Ci didn't bother to pay attention to her hidden thoughts, saying that it was a waste of time and there was no need to explain to her. He just said: "It's getting late, go back early."
He rubbed Su Ruotong's shoulder and went upstairs. This was an eviction order, and he also told her clearly that he would not let her in.
Su Ruotong looked at his figure going upstairs, and she knew in her heart that even though she had been waiting for him silently for many years, she was still no different from any other woman to Xiao Ci.
Because all he had in mind these years was revenge, and he had never been close to his aunt. If there was anyone of the opposite sex who was special to him, it might be Lin Zhiyi.
Even if it's acting, Lin Zhiyi is the only person who can make him worry about it.
Su Ruotong secretly told herself not to be jealous, that woman would not end well sooner or later, and she and Xiao Ci had a long time to live...
At that time, Xiao Ci returned home.
I turned on the computer and got ready to work. My phone rang after ten minutes. I thought it was Lin Zhiyi, but when I looked at it, it was Su Ruotong.
I didn’t want to pick it up, but the other end kept insisting.
She has never been a stalker, and today was a bit unusual. Besides, if she hadn't left, she could have knocked on the door.
Seeing that the two families had old friends, Xiao Ci pressed the answer button even though he was impatient.
"Help-" A short scream came from the other end, and then there was a snap, as if the cell phone was knocked off.
Xiao Ci immediately had a bad premonition and thought of the environment of this community, so he immediately got up and walked out.
There are quite a lot of people around here, but because the rent is cheap and not all are students, there are also some people living at the bottom of society.
There was no surveillance in the community, so he didn't know whether Su Ruotong left by car or on foot.
He strode to the convenience store at the door and found that there was a surveillance camera at the door. He went in and explained the situation to the proprietress, and gave a rough description of Su Ruotong's appearance.
Coincidentally, Su Ruotong stopped in this store for a while to buy water.
The landlady pointed in the direction of Big S and said, "I see she went that way on her own."
This community is not far from Da S, but there is a group of houses left over from the old city in the middle.
Because it was so old, it was really uninhabitable and it was not demolished in time.
Xiao Ci quickly drew out the area where trouble could occur in his mind, and did not dare to stop for a moment.
It was not too late, but since no one lived in this area, it seemed particularly quiet. Therefore, it was easy to notice any movement.
He carefully identified and walked over step by step. In the dim vision, the man had already pinned Su Ruotong at the end of a dead end.
He covered Su Ruotong's mouth with one hand to prevent her from making any sound, while the other hand reached into her skirt and spoke obscenely, saying some disgusting and dirty words.
"Little sister, uncle has been holding it in for too long, you should do something good."
The man's eagerness made Su Ruotong tremble all over with fright, but she could only make a sound of "Ouch".
His stinky mouth bit Su Ruotong's shoulder. Just when she was despairing, she finally saw a figure running from not far away.
With such a figure, she could tell it was Xiao Ci even from such a distance.
When he comes, she still cares about herself.
Su Ruotong's tears fell down. She felt that the man's hand was about to reach into her underwear. She suddenly gathered all her courage and bit his hand that was covering her mouth hard.
"Xiao——"
Before he could say anything to save his life, he was slapped on the face.
Half of his face was burning with pain, and his ears were buzzing, accompanied by the man's insults: "Bastard, you are so shameless!"
Before the man could bully him again, Xiao Ci grabbed him by the back collar.
He smelled of alcohol and was drunk. When he saw someone harming his good deeds, especially a good-looking pretty boy with a "thin" figure, he immediately got angry.
He swore a curse word and punched Xiao Ci with his fist.
Unexpectedly, the fierce punch was easily caught by Xiao Ci, and there was only a click, followed by the man's scream like a slaughtering pig.
"Hero, spare your life! Hero, spare your life! I don't dare to do it anymore." Seeing that he was no match for Xiao Ci, the man immediately begged for mercy.
Xiao Ci let go of him. Although the man's legs were weak, he still ran away for his life. After all, saving his life was important.
Xiao Ci looked at Su Ruotong who was huddled in the corner and asked, "Are you okay?"
The next moment, she threw herself into Xiao Ci's arms without any care...
