"...I'm sorry." The girl lowered her head and her voice was very soft, not daring Su Ci to see the expression on her face.

Big tears rolled down, making the woman in front of her at a loss.

"Why are you crying?" The woman's soft tone showed a little panic, and she comforted the sad child in a gentle voice, "You don't need to apologize, don't be afraid."

Yan Chu couldn't hold back her tears, and covered her cheeks with her hands, tears still seeping from between her fingers.

Passengers left the town one after another and waited for the bus on the side of the street. Seeing this scene, they all looked around and cast curious eyes.

Su Ci took the girl's wrist, and persuaded him kindly: "Go to the car first."

Yan Chu nodded, followed behind the woman, feeling the warmth of the other's palm with the wrist gently held by the woman, the vacant part of his heart was filled with inexplicable emotions.

Su Ci opened the car door for her, and she sat in the passenger driver as before, and the woman gave her a tissue. During the period, the car was quiet, except for the girl's low sobs, the woman didn't ask anything.

After about 5 minutes, Yan Chu's mood calmed down slightly, and he wiped away all his tears, leaving sobs remaining.

The woman sat in the driver's seat beside her, and when she stopped crying, she asked softly, "Where are you going next?"

Yan Chu sniffed, and answered honestly: "Liuhe."

Liuhe is also an ancient town with a long history, not far from here, but closer to Fudu.

"Aren't you going to go home after that?" The woman was very patient, her words were always gentle, she didn't blame Yan Chu for her recklessness, and she didn't force her to ask why she did so.

The girl nodded, with a strong nasal voice: "Yes."

Hearing Yan Chu's affirmative answer, Su Ci was silent for a few seconds, and when he spoke again, his voice was lower, and he asked her very softly, "Will you tell me why?"

She didn't know Yan Chu's family well, so she wouldn't judge right or wrong rashly. That's why she didn't notify Yan Tingyue and He Ping as soon as she got the news, but chose to come to see Yan Chu alone.

Although Yan Tingyue promised to help them find their daughter, for Su Ci, the important thing is to find Yan Chu, not force the girl to go home to meet her parents.

She believed that Yan Chu had to have a reason for leaving home secretly.

Yan Chu turned his head and looked out the window, telling all the conflicts between himself and his parents, and he didn't even hide the fact that he came out face to face.

She didn't deliberately complain about her parents' faults, she just said that she was rebellious, unwilling to accept such strict discipline, and didn't want to follow the path her parents set for her.

She longs for a life in which she decides, and longs for a chance to choose freely.

Even if the future is unsatisfactory, she still wants to be her true self.

"After I made this decision, I didn't want to go to you again." Yan Chu tilted his head, leaning against the car window, with a frank expression, "I didn't pretend to be pitiful to win your sympathy, I even thought that I might never see you again. it's your turn."

The woman looked surprised.

Yan Chu didn't look back, still looking at the distant view of the town outside the window, with a red nose, whispered: "I know my parents, in a sense, my stubbornness is exactly the same as theirs, they will never Let me go easily, and it is impossible to accept that I like you."

"Even if you help them find me and take me back, they won't appreciate it, and may even repay kindness with hatred, and speculate on the relationship between you and me with the greatest malice, just like they didn't believe that I didn't have a deeper friendship with Fu Hai before. .”

"I don't want to leave my life to them, and I don't want to cause you trouble because of this matter." The girl lowered her eyes, her tone gradually calmed down, "Actually speaking, I just like you wishfully. Up to now, it has caused you a lot of trouble, so..."

"Sister Su, I hope you don't persuade me to go home, and don't meddle in the quarrel between me and my parents. If I can't make up my mind to draw a clear line with them, then I will be a porcelain doll in their hands for the first half of my life."

She will be well "protected" by her parents, and the price she pays is the freedom to choose her own life.

Su Ci didn't express any opinion on the girl's decision, but just took a deep look at her and asked, "Then what about your studies?"

Yan Chu frowned and didn't respond for about half a minute.

It is regrettable to drop out of school only in the second year of high school.

It’s not true to say that she doesn’t like studying at all. With her personality, if she didn’t want to do it well out of her subjective will, it would be difficult for her to be so outstanding in her grades.

Smart is smart, but a serious attitude towards learning and an easy-to-use brain are two different things.

After thinking for a long time, she said: "The photo incident is such a big deal, even if I go back to school, I will be criticized in private by my classmates. It's not that I'm afraid of the eyes of the outside world, but this kind of grievance and misunderstanding that is far from the truth makes me feel sad. People find it boring."

"Besides, as long as I still need them to help me pay the tuition fees, I have to listen to them and accept their supervision." Yan Chu said lightly, "I can't go to school anymore, it would be great if I have the opportunity to take the college entrance examination, but if No, and I don’t want to force it.”

"I don't feel like my life is ruined like this, on the contrary, this is just the beginning."

Learning is a lifelong matter, not limited to a few years or more than ten years of school status, she can also learn various survival skills other than books, compared with the problem-solving skills learned in the exam, the cultivation of character and the experience of human nature is more important.

She will no longer be controlled by others.

She said: "Sister Su, don't feel burdened because of my choice. This matter has nothing to do with you. Even without the fuse that I like you, as long as my parents and I have different ideas, it is impossible to get along well." , I did it for myself."

After the girl finished speaking, the carriage fell silent, and the woman hadn't heard back for a long time, maybe she didn't know how to deal with the child's stubborn determination.

After an unknown amount of time, a soft sigh sounded in the silent carriage, and the woman shook her head, with a bit of helplessness and remorse in a wry smile: "You are really... a stubborn and heartless kid."

Yan Chu's eyes were darkened by the woman's succinct evaluation, and she felt that Su Ci was right.

She is not only stubborn, but also very selfish. She only thinks about herself, and because she feels wronged and painful, she tries to write off her parents' nurturing grace over the years.

Bridges return to bridges, roads return to roads, it sounds chic, but in fact it is very selfish, she is just an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.

Her lips were constricted, then tightened, and straightened, at least outwardly, she was unmoved.

A hand suddenly stretched out beside her, Su Ci's soft white knuckles pressed the top of her hair, and gently rubbed it.

"You've thought through all the possibilities, but do you know..." The woman spoke halfway, bit the second half between her lips and teeth, and paused before uttering, "I'm worried too."

In order to determine Yan Chu's movements, she did not close her eyes for the past few days.

She said that she would not accept it and would not waver, but she was not hard-hearted after all, how could she let a little girl with no self-protection ability wander outside alone.

Yan Chu's heart trembled, and the circles of his eyes were red again.

Su Ci turned his face sideways, raised the girl's drooping temple hair with his little finger, and gently pinned it behind her ear, and said softly, "Before, weren't you very good at relying on me?"

I always call her when I encounter any problems, and find all kinds of excuses to act like a baby to her and ask her for help. .

Yan Chu gripped the hem of his jacket tightly, tears welling in his eyes.

The woman held the back of her hand, pushed her fingers away, and said softly, "If you really don't want to go home, you can stay with me."

Yan Chu hesitated to speak, but before she opened her mouth, she heard the woman say to her: "If you don't want to owe me a favor, I can also pay you rent. When you have your own job and income in the future, you can consider paying it back." I."

The girl pursed her lips and said nothing, her expression unprecedentedly hesitant.

After thinking about it, she still shook her head.

"I won't go." Yan Chu said stubbornly, "They won't let me go easily."

There is no need to continue to speak the rest.

Of course she still wants to continue cheating. If she has no face and skin, the relationship between her and women can be shortened, but the current situation does not allow her to be self-willed. What she is facing at the moment is not a little trouble, but her parents' endless condemnation and entanglement.

If Yan Tingyue and He Ping came to find her, in what capacity would Su Ci interfere with her parents' "discipline" her?

Women have never found a brat so troublesome.

Yan Chu is very smart most of the time, but once he encounters a problem that he cares about, he is stubborn and doesn't know how to adapt.

"Didn't you say you wanted to pursue me?"

Su Ci's voice was soft and soft, coming from beside him.

Yan Chu was startled suddenly, his heart missed half a beat, and he subconsciously turned his head to look to the side.

At some point, the woman turned her face away, pointed the back of her head at her, and said in a calm tone, "I've given you a chance."

However, how to choose is up to Yan Chu himself.

If the kid didn't want to grab her again as straw, she wouldn't rush to call Yan Chu "going astray".

The girl stared blankly at the woman's back, her mind went blank, and she didn't know what expression to put on her face.

She opened her mouth halfway, and the heart hidden in her chest was beating non-stop, and the noisy heartbeat was rumbling, like bursts of thunder.

Su Ci paused for two seconds, then turned his head again.

"Xiao Chu." She called softly, met Yan Chu with gentle eyes, and asked again, "So, do you want to go to Fudu with me?"

The woman's expression seemed calm, but the reddish ear tips looming between her temples revealed some traces of unrest.

Yan Chu held her breath, and her heart beat faster and faster, almost exceeding the limit of her body's load, so that she was dizzy and almost thought she was hallucinating.

She couldn't control her hands, feet, lips and tongue, and wanted to answer immediately, but the words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't answer for a long time.

Yan Chu shook her hands and pinched her thigh hard. The pain caused tears to flow out of her eyes. Before she could speak, the tears flowed down.

The woman's eyes ranged from peaceful to astonished to helpless.

"I see," she said.

There seemed to be a hint of disappointment hidden in the voice.

"No!" Hearing that Su Ci had misunderstood, Yan Chu regained the ability to express in a hurry.

She jumped up from her seat and reached out to grab the woman's arm.

But she got up in a hurry and didn't wear a seat belt. She accidentally bumped her head on the roof of the car and let out a scream.

Under Su Ci's astonished gaze, Yan Chu covered his forehead and whimpered, "I, oh, Sister Su, don't want me, I'll go with you..."
