Bo Xingzhi ultimately failed to meet Lin Shengsheng as he wished.

He was called away by a phone call.

Lin Shengsheng vaguely heard a woman's voice.

"You can sleep here tonight. If you are hungry, ask Uncle Gong to get you something to eat." Bo Xingzhi gave this instruction before leaving.

Lin Shengsheng responded obediently.

Bo Xingzhi walked in a hurry and did not notice anything unusual about Lin Shengsheng. His lively eyes became somewhat numb and confused.

The drug began to take effect, and she sat up drowsily and looked out the window.

This is a top wealthy area. You can only see fireworks in the distance through space, or you can only see a shadow.

She is very afraid of this kind of environment.

She was the only one locked up in the empty big house. She couldn't run away and felt like some filthy thing would jump out at any moment and drag her into the endless darkness.

The trauma of her childhood made her not want to stay even for a minute, and she deleted from her mind the words she had just promised Bo Xingzhi.

She just wanted to get out of here quickly.

But even now, she is trying to overcome herself...to make herself look like a normal person.

This year is New Year's Eve...

When she opened her phone, there was only one blessing text message from Shang Zhuoyan, asking her where she was going and that he had prepared dumplings for her.

She didn't reply, but sent a text message to Bo Xingzhi.

Lin Shengsheng pushed open the door and saw Uncle Gong busy with something alone. She asked calmly, "Isn't Uncle Gong celebrating the New Year?"

"Everyone else has left, so I have to stay and make you something to eat."

Uncle Gong was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Shengsheng because he felt that it was very strange that she had changed from being Bo Tingyun’s girlfriend to Bo Xingzhi’s woman...

He was used to seeing women who were close to Bo Xingzhi, and subconsciously classified Lin Shengsheng into that category.

Lin Shengsheng looked a little flustered at this moment. She lowered her head and spoke in confusion.

"Sorry……"

Uncle Gong looked at Lin Shengsheng's pitiful appearance and felt that what he had said just now was too harsh.

Some awkward explanations.

"Hey, don't put on such a pitiful expression, I'm doing this for your own good. Don't waste your time and energy on Xingzhi. Xingzhi already had someone he loved in his early years. For someone like you, he would just play around with you at most. Don't get yourself into trouble."

"I'm saying this for your own good."

Lin Shengsheng hummed, "I understand, Uncle Gong."

"I was just about to leave, so I won't bother Uncle Gong anymore. Also, I've already texted my uncle..."

Seeing Lin Shengsheng was about to leave, Uncle Gong asked again, "Have you really broken up with Master Tingyun?"

Lin Shengsheng nodded. "Yeah."

Uncle Gong treated her well in her previous life. If he hadn't persuaded Bo Xingzhi, she might have really died in Bo Xingzhi's bed several times!

The furious Bo Xingzhi lay on the bed like a mad dog...

And even though what Uncle Gong said was unpleasant to hear, it was the fact.

It was just a joke with her, she knew it very well.

……

Uncle Gong was afraid that she couldn't get a taxi, so he called a driver for her.

The driver also wanted to go home for the New Year, so she got off the car in the downtown area, not far from her home.

The street where she lived, which was originally very busy, became particularly deserted tonight, and the shops on both sides of the road were closed for the day.

Red spring couplets and festive window decorations are pasted on the shop doors and windows, bringing a touch of brightness to the bleak winter.

Lin Shengsheng then remembered that he had not had time to paste the few blessing characters he bought.

She looked up at the sky.

She couldn't help but sigh that in such a big world, she, Lin Shengsheng, actually had no home.

She smiled bitterly.

I walked into the dilapidated corridor, pushed open the door, took the word "Fu" and pasted it up. Just as I finished pasting it, I saw fireworks suddenly rising outside the window.

"Bang!" A beautiful arc appeared in the sky, and colorful clusters of flowers exploded in the night, burning the night sky like day.

A smile appeared on Lin Shengsheng's face. She was even in the mood to pour herself a glass of wine. She took out the buns she had bought earlier and heated them up. Thinking of her stomach, she also cooked some porridge.

She raised her glass to the sky. "Celebrate the new life."

After dinner, she started a live broadcast as usual to brush up on the time. Normally, there wouldn't be many people on New Year's Eve, but today there were unexpectedly many.

She knew that the effect of the drug was taking effect in her body, and she would not feel comfortable until it was completely gone, so she did not speak during the live broadcast, but just drew casually with a pencil.

Nor spoke.

Just put on some music randomly.

"This anchor has something. His hands are good at drawing."

"Why isn't the host talking today?"

"Besides drawing, what else can the anchor do?"

……

While painting, she was wondering who developed this medicine. The Lin family was not in the pharmaceutical business, but she had been fed this kind of medicine frequently since she entered the Lin family.

This drug would make her mentally weak, her body react extremely slowly, and even her emotional resonance would disappear. After taking it for the first time, she... was like a doll.

If she hadn't been strong-willed, she didn't know what would have happened.

But in the Lin family, no matter how careful she was, she would still fall for it. At first, it was once a month, and then once a year...

The Lin family wanted to use this medicine to control her.

After she left the Lin family in her previous life, she never came into contact with this medicine again, and she didn't have time to investigate the matter later.

Having died once, she thought this might be a starting point.

She knew the wine had problems, but she still drank it...

Only a knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.

"Sister, are you there?"

Lin Shengsheng stopped writing and turned off the live broadcast.

She recognized the voice as Shang Zhuoyan's, so she opened the door. "What... is going on?"

After opening the door, Lin Shengsheng felt even colder and wrapped himself tightly. Maybe because his body was too weak, his reaction to the medicine was unusually strong this time.

"I saw your light was on, and you didn't reply to my text message, so I came to take a look. By the way, these are the dumplings I made today. Do you want to try them?"

His eyes were bright and clear as water, sparkling with sincerity.

Or maybe she was used to mass-produced tenderness, so today she was particularly moved by this clumsy sincerity.

Lin Shengsheng took the dumplings with a smile. "I'm hungry too, thank you."

Shang Zhuoyan's Adam's apple rolled, as if he wanted to say something.

Lin Shengsheng said with a smile. "Come in!"

Seeing her so graceful and elegant, he felt a little embarrassed.

Lin Shengsheng put the dumplings aside and picked up two pairs of chopsticks. "How about eating together?"

Shang Zhuoyan exclaimed, somewhat flattered, and nodded. "Okay."

Lin Shengsheng's stomach couldn't actually eat much, so he took a bite and thought it was delicious. "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Shang Zhuoyan held the chopsticks tightly, and his eyes seemed to be shining as he looked at Lin Shengsheng. "We have already agreed to have the surgery after the New Year. I am so excited that I can't sleep."

Lin Shengsheng had a warm smile on his plain face. He patted Shang Zhuoyan on the shoulder and said, "The next step is the real tough battle. Learn to control yourself."

Shang Zhuoyan nodded.

"Go back to sleep, it's getting late." Lin Shengsheng actually doesn't like to communicate too much with strangers.

I will help him, but it's just that he is useful.

But when she met those innocent and clear eyes, she would think, if she used such a person, what was the difference between her and those people?

"And my mother has decided to divorce my father." Before leaving, Shang Zhuoyan thought about it and told Lin Shengsheng this information.

Lin Shengsheng hummed. "Don't try to keep someone who doesn't have you in his heart."

These words were said to Shang Zhuoyan, and also to herself.

It was snowing heavily outside the window, but the dumplings on the table were still warm. Her body was hot, but her heart was cold.

Yes, she started to have a high fever.

……

When she woke up, it was already the next day and the phone next to her pillow had been turned off.

She got up, drank some water and charged the battery.

I just realized that they were all missed calls. My phone ran out of battery last night!

What a patient person.

But when she saw the name above, she guessed that this person must be furious!

Bo Xingzhi doesn't like people who don't listen. She insisted on leaving last night, and he probably wanted to kill her.

She thought about it and turned off her phone.

It’s the New Year, why make yourself unhappy, let’s wait until after the New Year.

But the gift I mentioned before still needs to be prepared for him, and it has to be to his liking.

……

It was snowing heavily, and Lin Shengsheng climbed up Siming Mountain step by step and arrived at Jiuhua Temple.

I asked for an eighteen-seed bracelet.

It is said that it was here that Bo Xingzhi almost became a member of this group because of his first love.

After praying for the bracelet, when Lin Shengsheng was going down the mountain, he ran into Bo Tingyun who was carrying Guo Lingxue up the mountain.

Lin Shengsheng frowned, how could he forget...

The Jiuhua Temple is very spiritual, so every New Year and other festivals, a lot of people come here to pray. But I didn’t expect that the world is so small that I can meet them here.

"Why are you here? Are you trying to pray to God to make my uncle like you more? Then do you know who called my uncle back last night, who never likes to go back to the old house?"

Bo Tingyun was still resentful of Lin Shengsheng for not saving Guo Lingxue last night when she begged him to die.
