Kiss!

For 3 minutes, neither of them said a word.

Shen Xun dragged a chair and sat opposite her, with his elbows resting on his knees, turning his mobile phone in his hand, and raised his eyebrows to look at her.

"If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it."

Qin Rao turned her head and looked out of the window. It was already afternoon, and the sun and damp air were sneaking in through the window.

She is doing psychological construction for herself, bringing up old things again, it is bound to go through her mind again, which is a bit difficult for her.

She took a breath, "Can you give me a cigarette?"

Shen Xun's heart tightened. He knew that she smoked. He had learned from Chen Yang a long time ago, but he had never seen her smoke, nor had he seen cigarettes in her room.

He shook one out of the cigarette case and put it in his mouth. The lighter lit up with a "crack". After taking a puff, he grabbed the back of her head and pushed the cigarette into her mouth.

The smoke drifted into her mouth, she frowned, "I haven't smoked for a long time, I'm not used to it."

She had a time when she smoked heavily. At that time, she couldn't get out of her dreams and memories, and she could only be temporarily paralyzed by smoking and alcohol.

Later I just quit, but now I am not addicted.

Shen Xun said: "Then don't smoke, it's not a good thing in the first place."

"Don't you smoke too?" Qin Rao asked back.

"In the rebellious period, I wanted to try everything, but I never quit after learning."

With that said, Shen Xun pressed the cigarette into the ashtray and extinguished it.

Qin Rao asked: "During your rebellious period, were there any ridiculous times?"

Shen Xun thought about it for a while, and said foolishly: "It's not absurd, at best, I just want to conquer the world."

Qin Rao curled her lower lip, as if she could recall his wanton appearance when he was a young man in fresh clothes and angry horse.

Shen Xun looked at the smile on her mouth, leaned forward a little, and stared at her seriously, "But now, I am willing to be conquered by you."

"So Qin Rao, you can trust me completely."

The smile on the corner of her mouth faded, but her eyes gradually became firm, "I told you once, I killed two people, one was my best friend, and the other was..."

Qin Rao paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to say the following words.

"The other one is my father."

Shen Xun's heart shrank, he had heard her talk about her father, the words were full of warmth, he knew how important that person was to her.

Qin Rao: "When Zhong Lin jumped from the roof, I was the only one present. Someone saw me having an argument with her, so I became the number one suspect."

She spoke slowly, her voice gradually began to tremble, "The police took me for questioning, and asked me to describe the details of the incident for 24 hours."

Shen Xun suddenly realized something, and there was a bang in his head, as if his heart was being pricked by a needle, he took a deep breath in distress.

It is a common interrogation method to ask the suspect to repeat the process of the incident repeatedly, mainly to find flaws in the suspect's confession through repeated repetition.

1 day, 24 hours, 1440 minutes, 86400 seconds.

Repeat the incident from my mind over and over again, and the picture will become clearer and clearer, and finally deeply engraved in my mind.

A 16-year-old girl with immature mental development was destroyed in repeated interrogations.

How did she survive that time?Shen Xun felt distressed.

Qin Rao didn't look at him, and continued: "It was later discovered that she left a suicide note, which mentioned me. She committed suicide because I robbed her boyfriend. You said it was ridiculous, and I didn't even know who her boyfriend was." No idea, but no one believed it because I was her best friend."

"And my father...he was already in the late stage of liver cancer at that time, Zhong Lin's parents blamed me for killing her, they took relatives to find my dad, splashed paint on my door, and made trouble every day, then..."

She choked up, and tears overflowed from her eyes instantly.

"He said he would pay for his life, and then he jumped off the balcony."

Speaking of this, she suddenly smiled with tears in her eyes, and there was a kind of tragic and detached look at life and death in her eyes.

That is her most important person, how did she carry such inner pressure for so many years?

Shen Xun leaned over and hugged her into his arms, slowly tightened his arms, rubbed his chin on the top of her hair, and comforted her in a low voice, "It's all over, it's okay, it's all over."

"There is no past," Qin Rao shook her head in pain, "You see, I thought it would pass after so many years, but it can't pass..."

Whether it was dreaming back at midnight or in a similar place, the pain would repeat itself in her body.

Shen Xun could only hug her, rub the top of her hair, kiss her forehead, and comfort her non-stop.

The tenderness of eight lifetimes has been spent on her, but still feels that he doesn't hurt her enough.

At the beginning, she just kept crying, suppressed and restrained, but she relaxed under his comfort and began to cry bitterly.

She has never let herself cry like this, for a long, long time, until she was so tired that she fell asleep in his arms.

Shen Xun didn't leave her, and kept her in his arms.

In Tang Qi's investigation, there were cases of her seeing a psychiatrist before. He looked at it carefully and diagnosed it as a mental disorder caused by a major traumatic event, that is, post-traumatic stress disorder PTSD.

In such a mental illness, trauma-related situations or content will repeatedly and involuntarily appear in thinking, memory, or dreams, and subconsciously avoid the location of trauma or people or things related to trauma.

She is very strong. After seeing a psychiatrist for two years, her condition has improved significantly, and she will only react at specific places and times.

Obviously, today's filming location of the crew has greatly stimulated her.

The phone on the table vibrated several times, but she was not woken up.

Shen Xun gently withdrew his hand, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, picked up the phone and went to the bathroom to pick it up.

It was Tong Lin who called, saying that the driver didn't pick him up at the airport.

Only then did he remember that it was originally the plane back to Dongcheng in the afternoon, and he only spared one day to come and see her.

Once Qin Rao's accident happened, he completely forgot about the flight.

Lin Qi asked, "Then shall I book you a plane ticket for the evening?"

"No need," Shen Xun said in a low voice, "I won't be returning for the time being, and the rest of the itinerary will be postponed. The specific time is to be determined."

Lin Tong was a little worried, "But you still have..."

Shen Xun: "No matter what, push it."

Before hanging up the phone, he heard Lin Tong sigh.

After coming out of the bathroom, Qin Rao opened her eyes just as Shen Xun sat on the bed.

"Are you still sleeping?" Shen Xun patted her head.

"what time is it?"

"06:30."

Qin Rao sat up from the bed, and when she raised her eyes, she bumped into Shen Xun's.

"I'm fine," she said.

It's fine to cry once, and she hides the past again, as long as she doesn't reveal it, she is still a normal person.

There were several missed calls and messages on the phone, most of which were people familiar with the crew asking about her health.

Seeing that she was about to change clothes, Shen Xun held her back, "Where are you going?"

"The crew," Qin Rao didn't know why, "we can't delay the shooting."

Shen Xun dragged her to his lap, "I finally came here, and you won't have a meal with me?"

In the end, the two ordered takeaway and made do with a meal at the hotel.

I don't know how Shen Xun contacted the crew, and I don't know how he negotiated specifically.

The screenwriter changed the script and changed the scene to an interior.

Shen Xun stayed with her on the set for two days, and returned to Dongcheng only after seeing that she was really fine.

The end of the year is his busiest time, and he has not been able to spare time to see her since then, so he keeps in touch with her by phone and text message every day, and occasionally video.
