Honest Lies [MTL] (Completed)

Chapter 119 + 120

Chapter 119 I hate me.

The rest of the way, I was absent-minded.

The red glove slammed on the chest as the bus moved forward, making people a little irritable. I tugged on the red glove, trying to get it off my chest several times, and saw him again.

He was standing beside me, clasping the ring with one hand, and staring at the market outside the window.

I followed his gaze and looked out. This was just an ordinary open-air vegetable market. There were chickens, ducks, fish and geese, and the mournful cries of all kinds of animals waiting to be slaughtered. The stone floor was full of potholes, and rotten vegetables and leaves were submerged in the cross-flowing water. in sewage.

A place where people don't want to take a second look after seeing it for the first time.

I turned back and looked at him again.

He still watched with relish. The dirty scenes in reality entered his eyes, as if they had been washed away and cleaned. The dirt and chaos were gone, leaving only the flow of people, chickens and dogs smelling each other, and a lively atmosphere.

"Be careful," he said suddenly, holding out his hand to me.

I was stunned for a moment and saw a branch decorated with green leaves in his palm.

The branches poked out from the window of the bus. The bus approached the curb when turning. The green trees planted on the road lowered their branches. The branches curiously poked into the long box filled with people. From my head Sweeping it up, he caught it in his palm again, and then swayed it out as the bus continued to move forward.

As the light and shadow flickered, green leaves seemed to sprout from his palm.

He glanced at the clothes hanging on the balcony and said, "There is an old man in Yu Xiaoyu's home. He should be Grandma Yu or Grandma." , except for the clothes of adults, it seems that Yu Xiaoyu and the old man are dependent on each other. Did her parents have an accident? "

I don't know much about it.

He knocked on the door again, but unfortunately the old lady inside was not very welcoming to the male classmates. She only said that Xiaoyu was not here and asked us to go back.

If Yu Xiaoyu is not here, we will always have to wait for someone.

There is only one entrance and exit in the community, which is very convenient. We just need to sit on the rest chair next to the entrance and exit of the community and wait for people. He raised his hand and glanced at his watch: "It's half past five, I just heard that the old lady in the house is cooking, we'll wait at most half to an hour, and Yu Xiaoyu will come back."

However, this time his reasoning was slightly wrong.

We waited until almost seven o'clock before seeing Yu Xiaoyu trotting into the community in a hurry.

I caught up and stopped Yu Xiaoyu.

Yu Xiaoyu looked at me. Her round glasses slid to the bottom of the bridge of her nose. Her sight through the upper frame of the glasses seemed to be unable to focus, and she looked distracted and confused: "Who are you? What's wrong..."
