When you come out of the bungalow, it still feels like a small village with bright sunshine and chickens and dogs.
Cheng Xi followed Zhao Ruyi step by step. Now he felt more and more that Zhao Ruyi was unfathomable. At the same time, he also felt like he had become Zhao Ruyi's "little confidant"...
Taking her with you and letting her know some secrets, isn't this a confidant?
The bus stop was on the side of the road outside the village. It would take ten minutes to walk there. Cheng Xi didn't dare to ask questions all the way. He just thought that Zhao Ruyi couldn't beat a blind man. So how powerful would this blind man be if he had normal vision?
character.
After waiting on the side of the road for a while, the car finally arrived.
Cheng Xi followed Zhao Ruyi into the car and sat next to Zhao Ruyi. Finally he couldn't help but asked softly, "Oh... Ruyi, who is that Uncle Ye?"
"Want to know?" Zhao Ruyi turned to look at her.
He was actually recalling the situation of the previous fight. If it weren't for Ye Wentian's blindness, he wouldn't have been able to withstand so many moves, but even so, he was still defeated by Ye Wentian.
He is worthy of being the most gifted martial arts prodigy among the family's children more than 20 years ago.
"Well..." Cheng Xi stretched his neck in embarrassment when he saw Zhao Ruyi staring at her.
She knew that curiosity killed the cat, but if she didn't ask, it would make her feel uncomfortable. Of course, if Zhao Ruyi didn't want to tell, then she wouldn't ask any more.
"He comes from a big family, a very powerful family 30 years ago." Zhao Ruyi slowly looked towards the distance, where a lush field was filled with the vitality of spring.
Cheng Xi looked at Zhao Ruyi, looking forward to the next sentence.
"He was the most high-profile family member back then, and the shining star most likely to inherit the family business. The number of women who wanted to marry him must have exceeded double digits."
Cheng Xi stuck out his tongue. It was hard to imagine that the decadent middle-aged man with two sunken eye sockets who looked a little scary now had such a glorious past.
"He has excellent martial arts skills and a cheerful personality. He has already fought invincible fighters all over the world in his 20s. Except for the older generation, no one is his opponent. His boxing skills combine the strengths of various schools, and he likes to compete with others to win.
The other party’s martial arts skills were collected in countless secrets, so we had a lot of grudges.”
"But he is a child of a prominent family, and the other party is willing to admit defeat. No one dares to attack him."
Cheng Xi raised his eyebrows, feeling fascinated as he listened to Zhao Ruyi's short description. He was obviously a child of a big family, but he preferred to practice martial arts. Isn't that Zhao Ruyi?
But in those days, those who liked to learn three moves and two moves were really not very good. "Among them, his kicking skills were the most powerful. He created a unique skill of his own, but he didn't give it a name, and he didn't intend to pass it on to others."
"Oh! Oh!" Cheng Xi nodded. She didn't know much about martial arts, but looking at the fight just now, it seemed that the blind man defeated Zhao Ruyi by using his sharp kicks.
"But one time, he didn't know what kind of enemy he had made, and someone came to trouble him, which completely angered him. As a result, in the scuffle, he accidentally killed his most beloved sister."
Cheng Xi listened intently to Zhao Ruyi's words. When he heard this, his heart suddenly sank, knowing that this was the key to the turning point.
"Then he killed them all. When everyone at home came over, he stabbed himself in the eyes in front of everyone."
"Ah?" Hearing this, Cheng Xi opened his mouth in surprise.
Such a scene must be extremely shocking and bloody.
"The family blamed him for not practicing martial arts and not making enemies with outsiders. He was disheartened and lost his eyesight. He is a useless person and has left the family from now on."
——" Zhao Ruyi said.
Cheng Xi blinked and looked at Zhao Ruyi, "No...no more?"
"No more." Zhao Ruyi nodded.
"Oh..." Cheng Xi breathed a long sigh of relief.
Zhao Ruyi described the situation clearly in just a few words. Cheng Xi thought about it carefully and felt very angry.
The handsome young man who was once the most elegant, the most dashing and the most promising, actually ruined his own future by destroying his own eyes. This shows the pain and hatred in his heart...
He did not choose death because he wanted to use the rest of his life to atone for his sister's sins...
Even Cheng Xi, an outsider, felt a little pity.
Originally, this person could achieve great things, even if his sister died, as long as he admitted his mistakes and gave up martial arts training, he would still have great opportunities in the future.
After all, for a big family, the most important thing is talent. With a large number of people in a big family, there will always be some unexpected deaths. The pain of losing a sister will slowly heal as time goes by.
"Do you think there's something fishy about this?" Zhao Ruyi suddenly asked Cheng Xi when she saw her sighing.
"Weird?"
Cheng Xi stared at Zhao Ruyi, his dark eyes staring at Zhao Ruyi for a few seconds, and then he gradually came back to his senses, "You mean...,, someone framed him?"
"At that time, Ye Wentian was at the height of his power. There were many people in the family who hated him. I suspected that someone was trying to get him to kill someone to reduce his reputation. But he accidentally killed his sister, so it was probably out of plan."
Cheng Xi thought for a while, "It is indeed possible..."
"Moreover, after he accidentally killed his sister, someone deliberately used words to stimulate him. His mood was already unstable, but he became even more irrational." Zhao Ruyi continued.
Cheng Xi's eyes suddenly widened even more.
"But this statement is baseless. To stimulate him at that time, it is possible that some people took advantage of the situation." Zhao Ruyi looked out the window at the fields again.
Cheng Xi fell into silence, but after thinking about it, she realized that this matter had nothing to do with her. She just felt that the struggles within some big families were really cruel.
She knew that Zhao Ruyi was also a child of a big family, and she just hoped that Zhao Ruyi would be safe and not be framed.
Sigh... I actually don't have much to do with him... I'm worried about what he will do...
Cheng Xi immediately bit his lip and recovered his thoughts.
Ding ding ding... ding ding ding...
Her cell phone rang, and Cheng Xi hurriedly answered the phone.
"Well, we're in Xianghai...the evening gathering...well, I can come..."
Cheng Xi covered his phone and answered very carefully.
Zhao Ruyi didn't deliberately listen to the voice on the phone, but she could hear a slightly magnetic and caring male voice.
"I'm bringing a friend here, it doesn't matter...well, my boyfriend..."
Cheng Xi added on the phone. When he mentioned "boyfriend", his face turned red and hot involuntarily. He felt a little guilty for asking his boss to pretend to be his boyfriend.
"Oh! It doesn't matter! Let's come together!"
The answer on the other end of the phone was still enthusiastic, but Zhao Ruyi could still hear a little displeasure from the sudden increase in volume.
Cheng Xi hung up the phone and looked at Zhao Ruyi beside him with a guilty conscience.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. When she received a call from her male classmate, her first reaction was that she was afraid that Zhao Ruyi would be unhappy, so she spoke in a vague manner and deliberately lowered her voice.
Thinking about it carefully, am I a bit...reactive to cutting? I am afraid that he will be unhappy. Firstly, I am not his girlfriend, and secondly, he is not my boyfriend...
Zhao Ruyi noticed that Cheng Xi was looking at her, and with a soft "hmm" in her nose, she continued to glance at the fields on the side of the road.
When Cheng Xi saw Zhao Ruyi like this, he knew that he would not resist accompanying her to attend her class reunion today, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't know that Zhao Ruyi was thinking about other things, about Ye Xiangtian. Zhao Ruyi came here originally to get some key information, but after seeing Ye Xiangtian's attitude, she gave up such thoughts.
.
As the once all-powerful "Fourth Young Master Ye", Ye Xiangtian, who calls himself a loser, still knows many things that Zhao Ruyi doesn't know, including... the affairs of Zhao Ruyi's father.
The bus bumped forward while bumping. This kind of transportation line specializes in the urban-rural fringe. The performance of the vehicle itself is not particularly good. Amidst the rumbling sound, Cheng Xi leaned his body bit by bit, leaning on Zhao Ruyi's shoulder...
...asleep!
Her hair is silky, with subtle small waves. The color of her hair is a dark brown that is not particularly obvious. This color can only be seen under the reflection of the sun.
Looking from the white and tender neck, there are two small collarbones, followed by the suddenly enlarged chest, and the slender waist that trembles with the bumps of the car.
Cheng Xi is very good-looking, with delicate facial features. He is leaning on Zhao Ruyi's shoulder. His nose is particularly straight and his lips are small and delicate.
An out-and-out white-collar beauty in the workplace.
Moreover, she also has a childish personality, a bit of laziness, and a bit of timidity. She is not a strong woman like Chung Xinyan who can steadily catch whatever she throws at her.
But just like this, sometimes it becomes more cute.
When the bus arrived at the stop, Zhao Ruyi pushed the dazed Cheng Xi off and took her to another bus back to the city.
This back and forth took nearly an afternoon, and it was already evening when they returned to the city.
"Where is the class reunion?" Zhao Ruyi asked her while suppressing a smile as she looked at Cheng Xi who was running around with her and was too tired to be angry and dare not speak.
"Over there on Huawei Road..." Cheng Xi looked at Zhao Ruyi and hesitated, "That... clothes are..."
"Yes! Let's change into new clothes!"
Zhao Ruyi pulled Cheng Xi into the large shopping mall behind the station.
Cheng Xi was elated, and sure enough... following Zhao Ruyi around for a while, the hardships were not in vain, and it was good to be able to get a set of high-end clothes!
However, when Cheng Xi and Zhao Ruyi came out of the mall, there was no longer any joy, instead their faces were filled with dark clouds.
Not a single piece of clothing in her body was replaced with new ones, not even a small ornament was added!
It’s just that I can’t take advantage of Zhao Ruyi at all..., and Zhao Ruyi himself just... changed into a white sportswear!
In fact, Cheng Xi's original intention was to let him change into a suit... However, wearing sportswear really doesn't make him look too young...
"Let's go! Go to your class reunion!"
However, Zhao Ruyi seemed to be very interested. She took Cheng Xi's soft palm and stopped a taxi. (To be continued)
