"It was you who helped him?" Gu Yuanjun pondered to himself, and after thinking for a long time, he opened his mouth.

Looking at Xu Rui who was silently contemplating, he slowly turned his head to look at him, and sighed: "It's not me..." As if the memory was pulled back to the long past, Xu Rui said in a low voice: "I am the one who saved him." father."

Gu Yuanjun was slightly surprised when he heard this, and a man with a serious face but a noble temperament appeared in his mind.Thinking that before leaving, Xu Rui's father solemnly entrusted Xu Rui to him, there was a rare reluctance in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up, and then turned and left without looking back.

Xu Rui continued to speak: "At that time, my father hadn't left that house... One day he brought Jiang Rong to me and told me that this was my brother. At that time, I looked at Jiang Rong who was not much older than me. Rong, I am actually happy in my heart, maybe because the brothers and sisters of the whole family were ordered not to contact me, so... there is no one who can chat with me. Since he came, he has been with me He didn't speak behind him, and his sense of presence was so low that sometimes I would unconsciously forget him..."

Gu Yuanjun stared at his opening and closing mouth, and when he spoke up to this point, he shrunk down, then slowly raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Until one day I saw him speak for the first time, do you know what he said?" Without waiting for Gu Yuanjun to answer, Xu Rui said directly: "He asked me how to get out? At that time, I thought he was tired of staying here and couldn't bear the loneliness... To be honest, before this, I thought he didn't Emotional wooden man."

Xu Rui smiled and said: "You also know what happened later, we were arrested and taught a lesson after we failed to escape... also from then on, Jiang Rong's words gradually increased, and I gradually understood his previous Life."

"And then?" Gu Yuanjun asked as he watched him become silent again.

"I asked him how he met his father, and then I saw him lift up his clothes, revealing a scar on his abdomen. He said that when he was stabbed and thought he was about to die, he happened to meet his father passing by and saved him. He died." Xu Rui frowned slightly, as if he saw Jiang Rong's expressionless face when he said this, and then said: "I was really scared when I saw his wound that had just recovered... A slight deviation of that knife is enough to kill."

"I asked him what was going on, but he didn't want to talk about it at first. I threatened him that if he didn't tell me, I would ask my father. This trick worked. I knew he respected his father very much and didn't want to trouble him because of his own affairs, so I went to Tell the whole story of what happened."

"After he left his adoptive father's house, he went alone to look for his missing sister. Unexpectedly, he was stunned and tied to a strange ship on the way. At first, it was difficult. People on the ship spat at him. There are people who are deliberately humiliated by splashing dirty water... But he endured the torture and prepared to wait for an opportunity to escape. When he finally found the opportunity, an accident happened."

Xu Rui looked at Gu Yuanjun's slightly frowned brows, guessing that he knew there was more to it than that, and then said in a deep voice: "That ship was found to contain smuggled items, and all people and belongings were captured into the bureau And Jiang Rong inspected the prison for a few days because of his unknown identity. It happened that a young prisoner who had just entered the same room mentioned his sister's whereabouts. Bottomless obscenities, he shot that person."

"The boy just fell straight down like that and suddenly went into shock and stopped breathing. Later, the hospital said the boy was suffering from a cardiac disease, and the rescue failed and he died on the spot. The problem escalated to death due to intentional injury. Since Jiang Rong was still a minor at the time, he was arrested. Sentenced to two years in prison and suspended for two years."

"Having served his sentence for less than a month, he was severely injured by the people in the prison. When he was found, his clothes were torn and his hands and feet were damaged, but he was still struggling. He was kicked in the abdomen, which caused stomach bleeding and was sent to the hospital. However, he endured the pain and escaped from the hospital. As a result, he was stabbed by the family of the deceased who was dazzled by hatred just after he escaped, and what happened after that was like that... In that home, he was thinking of his sister and worried Someone will hurt her while secretly inquiring about her whereabouts. And sooner or later he will find out that he took over the ship. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Now he is besieged on all sides and he must always be on guard against unknown risks..."

The expression on Gu Yuanjun's face gradually changed from surprise to stunned, as if he had heard a story with twists and turns and hadn't connected the protagonist of this incident with reality.

Thinking of Fang Kai falling in love with such a person, I don't know if it is the arrangement of fate.It is Jiang Rong who also loves him that is why he is so hesitant in terms of feelings.Now that this layer of paper has been pierced, the burden of this one person has become two people to bear.

Maybe Fang Kai is right, Gu Yuanjun can choose to believe that Xu Rui kept him in the end, Fang Kai can also choose to face Jiang Rong together.

After a few people had a deep conversation last night, they got up very early the next day.

Early in the morning, some children from the village came to ask questions, and seeing Xu Rui was elated and overjoyed.As soon as Gu Yuanjun came in, he saw a group of children hiding on the ground and writing on the low stool, and cut up some melons that the farmers forced for them to eat.The children all ate happily, but only one child hid in the corner and buried himself in writing, as if immersed in his own world.

Soon, the children handed in the homework assigned by Xu Rui, waved goodbye and left.Xu Rui picked out a composition at random, and the words on it were densely packed and powerful, which made Xu Rui wonder whether the low stool was full of words.

Xu Rui looked at the square words "My Home" on the top of the composition paper, which really resembled the character of that child.No name was left on the paper, Fang Kai had seen these words before, they were the words of the little boy just now.However, the content made Xu Rui slowly put away the smile on his face.

The letter read: "I want a home... as long as someone can give me a home, I am willing to let him go." Only a child with an inner insecurity can make such a humble request.

Xu Rui asked the woman who was busy drying the millet at the door, thinking about how to speak, and gestured with his hand: "The little boy with big eyes, neither white nor dark skin, who keeps his head down when he walks, do you know who it is?" child?"

"Oh, you're talking shit! That child's life experience is quite pitiful. He lost his mother since he was a child, and his father was kept under strict control by his stepmother. It's common to have a meal every now and then. It's pitiful to say it My child." After she finished speaking, she sighed, and said, "Fortunately, that child is very competitive, and she always takes the first place in the exam, and she is the most promising child in the village to go to college!" After speaking, she couldn't help laughing.

When Xu Rui saw the little boy again, he was next to the water tank. Seeing him keep poking his head in, he seemed to be buried in it.Suddenly popped his head again, fiddled with the water with his fingers, and spit into it quietly.

Doing childish actions like an ordinary child, he walked over and patted him on the back, watching him jump aside like an electric shock, looking at himself in horror.

There is no such a natural and relaxed feeling as he saw just now, and now the little boy only has panic in his eyes.

Looking at him, he seemed to see himself once surrounded by darkness. He knelt down to look at him, smiled, and said softly, "Do you want to leave here?"
