Please, Don't See Me

Anger turned into anger, Sheng Xinghe went back to Lingjiang to visit the grave, Shu Jin still went with him.

Sheng Xinghe used to go back alone. Lingjiang is more than an hour's drive away from the city. Sheng Xinghe has nothing else to do except sweep the grave. He can make one round trip a day. Often when Shu Jin goes home after a day of playing, Sheng Xinghe has already returned .

But this time, probably because they had been separated for two months, Shu Jin got up early and reluctantly told Sheng Xinghe that he would go too.

The two went to the station to buy tickets, and after getting on the train, Shu Jin also looked out the window and said nothing.

Sheng Xinghe knew that he was still depressed because of what happened yesterday, so he took the initiative to hand him the snacks he bought: "Don't be angry."

Shu Jin turned around, looked at him and said, "Don't you feel uncomfortable? That's a newspaper, it's like telling the world about you!"

"It's a fact that my uncle has sponsored me for more than ten years. It's not a shameful thing for me." Sheng Xinghe said, "If it wasn't for him, I might really have problems going to school. It's just an interview, it can help I should do it."

Shu Jin was speechless, he thought that Sheng Xinghe was embarrassed to reject his father for the sake of face, but who knew that Sheng Xinghe really had the mood of "repaying the favor".He suddenly remembered that Grandpa Sheng Xinghe used to supply eggs to their house continuously just because he wanted to express his gratitude.

Shu Jin couldn't continue to be angry, but his heart was still depressed.

I don't know why, but he just wants others to see how good Sheng Xinghe is, and doesn't want people to feel pity or look down on Sheng Xinghe.

Fortunately, Sheng Xinghe was very good at easing his mood. During the one-hour drive, he specially selected some things that happened in the school and the customs of that city to Shu Jin. Before he got off the car, Shu Jin forgot everything. Talked and laughed with him again.

When the car arrived in Lingjiang Town, Sheng Xinghe first bought some things for memorial service on the street, and then brought Shu Jin to his house.

It was an old street. Walking along the Qingshiban Road into the alley and then upstairs, it was Sheng Xinghe's home.

Sheng Xinghe's distant relatives also went to worship. Shu Jin was inconvenient to go, so Sheng Xinghe gave him the key and asked him to go to the house first.

Shu Jin found that it was very close to Shu Zhaoyuan's factory.

There are only a few streets in the town, and as long as you walk to the end of the street and cross a field, you can reach the gate of the factory.

Shu Zhaoyuan left early in the morning, and he didn't know if he was in the factory. After a second thought, Shu Jin planned to talk to his father about the interview by himself.He put the if given by Sheng Xinghe into his coat pocket, and walked slowly over there.

Shu Jin had been to the factory before, but there was nothing interesting here, he would rather paint here at home alone than come here with Shu Zhaoyuan.

For a long time, he only had a little impression of this place.

After entering the gate, Shu Jin reported his identity to Uncle Security, saying that he was looking for his father, Uncle Security immediately recognized him, and said enthusiastically: "Xiao Jin, you have grown up so much, when you came They are only so tall, and now they are taller than me!"

Shu Jin asked shyly, "Do you know me?"

Uncle: "I know! Why don't you know! When you were young, you often played with my son and the others. A large group of children love to go to the open space outside—"

The uncle pointed out.

Shu Jin looked in the direction of his finger, there was an open space outside the factory, trees were planted beside the road, like a natural fence, it was safe for children to play there.

Shu Jin didn't remember that place.

The uncle said cheerfully, "How many years has it been? You haven't been here since the accident happened."

Shu Jin was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Uncle: "Hey, it's about the child from the Sheng family. You were scared that day too, right? That's why Mr. Shu won't bring you here."

The uncle didn't elaborate, but Shu Jin immediately understood what he was talking about.

His face changed slightly, and he asked suspiciously, "Was I there that day?"

The uncle said casually: "Yes, a group of children. You don't remember being normal, how old were you then!"

Shu Jin pursed her lips.

How had he never heard of it?

The uncle chatted with him for a few words, called the office, and told Shu Jin that his father had left the workshop and was busy checking, so he asked him to wait for a while.

Shu Jin sat at the door for a while, seeing that the time was about the same, afraid that Sheng Xinghe would not be able to enter the house, so he greeted the uncle and said he would not wait.

When he returned to the alley, Sheng Xinghe had indeed returned and was calling him with his mobile phone.

"Brother!" Shu Jin stepped forward.

Sheng Xinghe looked up, half of his clear face was covered with deep black eyes, and the other half were gray disabled eyes.

For some reason, Shu Jin was taken aback.

He drove away the strange discomfort in his head, and asked, "So fast?"

"Hmm." Sheng Xinghe said, "I'm afraid you'll be waiting impatiently. Why didn't you go up?"

Shu Jin said: "I went around and went to the factory."

The two went upstairs together, and Sheng Xinghe opened the door with the key.

There was a dusty smell in the closed house, but the light was very good, and the skylight reflected the furnishings in the house. It was not as dilapidated as Shu Jin imagined, but full of the charm of the times.

Sheng Xinghe's grandfather used to be a teacher when he was young. Later, he became ill and resigned at home in his 40s, relying on his wife's meager salary to support his life, so the family can still see traces of the life of some old cultural people.

Although they talked very little, Sheng Xinghe mentioned some family matters. He was born out of wedlock by his mother and had never met his father.His mother was rebellious and threw him to his parents when he was born, and never came back.

Now that he's back, Sheng Xinghe checks the facilities in the house and cleans up the dust.

Shu Jin wanted to help, but Sheng Xinghe refused, so he had to look around.First went to Sheng Xinghe's room, quietly imagining how Sheng Xinghe grew up here, then went to see the kitchen and the patio outside.

There are some chickens raised in the courtyard, which are probably distributed according to households. The well water in the shed does not interfere with the river water. Shu Jin guessed that Sheng Xinghe's grandfather's chickens were also raised there before, but now the place has been taken by others.

His heart was sore and sour, and when he looked up, he saw a house with big holes in its windows and rusty guardrails.

"Is there no one living across the street?" He asked.

"Moved away." Sheng Xinghe said, "Someone lived there before."

Shu Jin said: "Oh, it looks like a haunted house, it might as well be sold."

Sheng Xinghe put the bucket on the wooden floor and glanced outside: "The houses in the small town are not easy to sell, they are all acquaintances."

Sheng Xinghe's expression was very pale.

But Shu Jin felt that something was wrong, and after standing for a while, he suddenly remembered that Shu Zhaoyuan had told him that the family who blinded Sheng Xinghe's eyes worked in his factory, and they were Sheng Xinghe's neighbors.

And Sheng Xinghe also said that the family moved out of town because of this incident.

Shu Jin's throat suddenly went dry, and he became a little angry when he looked at the dark window: "It's their house, isn't it?"

Sheng Xinghe nodded: "Yes."

Shu Jin said: "It's right that they can't sell their run-down house." After thinking about it, he said, "No, I heard from my dad that they didn't pay you much at the beginning, so they should sell this run-down house, and then give it to you. I will pay you all the money."

Seeing that he was so angry that his eyes were about to burst into flames, Sheng Xinghe smiled, and rubbed his head by the way: "You want someone to go bankrupt."

Shu Jin followed behind him: "Aren't you angry?"

Sheng Xinghe: "It's not easy for them. The family still owes foreign debts, and their life is not good."

Shu Jin: "..."

Sheng Xinghe said again: "When grandpa was still there, every year when they came back from other places, they would send many things home."

Standing there, Sheng Xinghe thought of something, and said, "That person didn't dare to see me. Every time I met him from a distance, he walked away. That incident... must have had a great impact on him, right?" .”

Shu Jin knew that the person he was talking about was probably the child who stabbed his eye.

It was an accident.

Both parties were about the same age at the time, and they actually hurt each other a lot.

So even though Shu Jin was very angry, after hearing what Sheng Xinghe said, he still felt a little compassion.

Back in the city, Shu Jin leaned against the car window and fell asleep.

When he woke up, Sheng Xinghe still had his eyes closed, his long eyelashes covered his eyelids, his eyebrows were straight, and he looked like an ordinary person.One of his hands was held by Sheng Xinghe, because of his deep sleep, the strength of his fingers was very light.

Shu Jin looked at Sheng Xinghe's face for a long time, and when he closed his eyes again, he felt the moisture in his eye sockets.

So uncomfortable.

He likes Sheng Xinghe, so he thought sadly and distressedly, it would be great if... that thing hadn't happened.

He was obviously there that day, and it would be great if he could stop that.

Then his Sheng Xinghe will have a more perfect life.

After a while, Shu Jin opened his eyes again.

Sheng Xinghe was already awake and looking at him.

The car was noisy, and other passengers were playing with their mobile phones and chatting, but at that moment Shu Jin felt that the world was very quiet.

Except for his growing heartbeat.
