A+ A- Turn Off Light

Ling Xiao had some plans for Ling Yuan’s future, “Aben, you’ve already turned eighteen, what are your plans next?”

Ling Yuan was stunned and sat up straight, “Dad, you don’t want to retire, do you? You’re not even fifty yet.”

After Ling Yuan’s mother left, Ling Xiao has been depressed, only this son can make him smile, he has been waiting for his son to grow up, when he turns eighteen he will slowly transfer the business at hand to him, and then he himself will travel around the world with his wife’s ashes.

Ling Xiao neither admits nor denies, “Sooner or later, this family will be handed over to you, starting tomorrow, follow me and learn how to do business.”

“Dad ……”

Ling Yuan still wants to say something, Ling Xiao directly interrupts him, “It’s decided, rest early tonight.”

After saying that, he turns around and goes upstairs.

Ling Yuan looked at his back, the spine was still straight, but he clearly saw his father who was getting older, his fists slowly clenched ……

Ling Yuan’s birthday, but even earlier than usual to go to bed, just people lying in bed, but only quietly staring at the ceiling.

As soon as he closed his eyes, but in his mind, there was a cacophony of noisy, piercing, sharp noise pouring into his ears, he knew it was an illusion, but it exploded in his ears like a real event.

And then a dull ache rose in his head, and he pressed on his temples, but the pain didn’t subside, instead it quickly spread throughout his head, stabbing every vein like a sharp knife.

At the same time, like a slide show in his head, a frame by frame, accompanied by cries, cries for help and all kinds of shrieks, all kinds of sounds, and a large swath of the color of the blood like a churning sea waves rushed up in a brain, instantly submerged him, to be suffocated.

He wanted to break free, wanted to shout, however, his whole body seems to be bound as if, completely unable to move or open his mouth.

His breathing became heavier and heavier, and the feeling of powerlessness and despair eroded his limbs and bones.

“Xiao Jiu!” Suddenly a harsh voice cut through the sealed space, all the illusions instantly recede, he suddenly opened his eyes, the back of a dense sweat.

Bewildered back to his senses, a gust of wind rose outside the window, the curtains were blown and rattled, the bright white moon took advantage of the gaps in the curtains to leak out a line of light, like a sharp sword to slice open a hole in the darkness of the night.

Brain has just experienced a fight, the heart has just returned, not yet fully calmed, again closed his eyes when still moving at high speed, toss and turn can not sleep, simply took a jacket out the door, walking without purpose, unconsciously walked to the villa outside the Liang residence.

Ling Yuan stopped in his tracks, he didn’t understand why he came here.

There was a room on the second floor whose light was still on, he knew which room Liang Zihao’s room was, and this would be the other side with the light on.

Just as he was thinking, there was a silhouette swaying on the window, the girl was standing in front of the window pulling the curtains, her slender figure was reflected in front of the window, with that thin waist, there was no one else but Ji Yu.

Ling Yuan took out his cell phone, wanting to send a message to someone, looking for a round before realizing that he didn’t even know the person’s cell phone number.

Throw the cell phone back into the pocket, took a small piece of mud downstairs, and threw it with force, only to hear a “bang” sound, in this silent night seems particularly crisp.

Chi Yu finished his homework and began to review the content of the first year of high school, in a few days will be examined, she can not be slack, must be tested out of their own strength.

Waiting to do a round of questions, take out the phone to see, already almost twelve o’clock, she hurriedly pulled the curtains, ready to do another half an hour to go to bed, learning is important, but sleep can not be less.

Drinking a mouthful of hot water just sat down, she heard the sound of the glass window being smashed, startled her.

It’s so late, it can’t be a thief, right?

Ji Yu wanted to call and wake up Bai Yang, but thought that it was so late, in case it wasn’t, wouldn’t it be disturbing people’s dreams?

She walked to the window and looked down, vaguely seeing a dark shadow standing there.

There really is a thief!

Ji Yu hastily retracted her body, her heart thumping, what to do? It was the first time she encountered a thief at her door.

What should be the first thing to do?

Yes, call the police, call 110.

Ji Yu took her cell phone and was about to call, the window was banging again, she felt something was wrong, this little thief is also too arrogant, right? Obviously knowing that she had discovered it, it was still blatantly obvious.

She bravely pushed the window open to look down, the black shadow shouted at her, “Ji Yu~”

Hmm?

The voice was a bit familiar.

Immediately afterward, she heard the other party’s suppressed voice, “It’s me.”

This time, Ji Yu heard clearly, it was Ling Yuan.

It’s so late, why is he looking for her?

Thinking of the fact that Ling Yuan even drove her home tonight, she couldn’t just ignore him.

Ji Yu casually grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, grabbed her cell phone and headed out the door.

Bai Yang, Liang Zi Hao and the others had all gone to bed, and the house was quiet, so Ji Yu lightly went downstairs, pushed open the door, and poked her head out.

“Senior, what is it that you’re looking for me at this late hour?”

Ling Yuan himself couldn’t tell, at this point, he actually should have turned around and left, but somehow his hand just didn’t listen to the call to throw mud blocks at her window, and he had to make a fuss about people going downstairs.

When was he so childish?

But when he saw the little girl’s furry head poking out, his heart suddenly softened into a piece.

The little girl looks very beautiful, white skin in the orange light glowing, plain little face, features exquisite like the grandmother’s room in the porcelain doll.

At this moment, she was looking at him with a puzzled face.

Those soulful eyes were bright, like a pair of sparkling night pearls.

Ling Yuan is not that he has not seen a girl who is more beautiful than her, with the status of his family, all kinds of beautiful women, tall, short, fat and thin, but all of them are not as good as the girl in front of him to let him …… How to describe it?

Just let him not open his eyes.

“Come here.”

Ling Yuan beckoned his hand to her.

Ji Yu hesitantly walked over and tilted her head to look at him, “What’s going on?”

Her voice was different from the “Why are you looking for me?” in the alley tonight, it was sweet, like it was covered in a layer of honey.

Ling Yuan was hit by this sudden sweetness in the heart of a choked, blank for a moment, holding the cell phone hand tightened down, eyes downcast, once again opened his mouth to say words are, “a little guarded are not, I let you down on down ah?”

Ji Yu is six meters two, Ling Yuan is more than a head higher than her, standing in front of him, appearing extraordinarily petite.

Hearing his words, she was stunned, and said obediently, “I know you are ah, if it’s someone else, I won’t come down, and I almost called the police just now.”

She’s so well-behaved~

Ling Yuan immediately felt like the pores of his whole body opened up, his whole body was soothed, the smile at the corner of his lips couldn’t be suppressed, after a while, he praised, “Quite alert.”

“Uh-huh.”

The two of them fell silent, Ling Yuan opened his mouth first, “Can you accompany me for a walk?”

Ji Yu looks at the sky, a little embarrassed, “It’s so late ……”

Who was reminding her just now?

“Just for a while.”

“Okay~”

There wasn’t much expression on his face, but Ji Yu still felt it, his current mood wasn’t quite the same as it was in the evening.

Ji Yu didn’t refuse anymore.
