Chapter 87: The old story of Shen Mingjin(1/2)
When he came to the kitchen, Chen Mingjin cooked and cooked. Gu Yingxuan sat on the side and stared at him blankly. She was a girl, but she was a real kitchen blind man. She was really ashamed of herself. Fortunately, it was a new era now, and if it were the old society, she would not be despised to death.
Unconsciously, Gu Yingxuan was fascinated by his sight...
It was not until the aroma of the food came out that Gu Yingxuan's spirit was called back. His stomach was so hungry that he was rumbled. He just drank some wine and tasted a few cold dishes in the hotel. Now he was so hungry.
Chen Mingjin brought the three-stack dish with a bowl of soup, served two bowls of rice, sat in front of her, handed her chopsticks, and said, "I don't have time to prepare ingredients. I'll make whatever I have in the refrigerator. Don't dislike big stars."
Gu Yingxuan looked arrogant, but kept praising and applauding. His cooking skills are really good and the food is delicious. Judging from the performance of the children and the deans just now, he should come to take care of the children often, right? The children are so lucky that they can often eat the food they cook.
If I were...
Oh! What are you thinking!
I won't like him!
Gu Yingxuan's eyes met Chen Mingjin's gaze that suddenly raised her head. She was found peeking at him and quickly turned back to have a meal.
Chen Mingjin laughed secretly.
After the two finished their meal, when Chen Mingjin was washing dishes, Gu Yingxuan came over to help, but unexpectedly he looked disgusted:
"Forget it, you don't get any water on weekdays. Don't smash the bowl while you're washing."
Gu Yingxuan's face darkened and she said angrily: "Good intentions will not be rewarded!"
After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but she felt that she was not familiar with the place, so she had to sit down on a chair next to the table.
Chen Mingjin suddenly said, "Sit down after dinner and you will have a small belly!"
Gu Yingxuan was shocked and quickly stood up.
As a star, the angel face and devil figure must not be destroyed!
"Wait for me, I'll take you for a walk later." Chen Mingjin skillfully washed the plate and smiled.
Chen Mingjin specifically asked a fifteen-year-old girl in the orphanage to borrow a set of clothes and asked Gu Yingxuan to change into it. After all, it was still a bit inconvenient to wear clothes for the banquet for a walk. The girl had already developed by the age of fifteen, and her clothes were worn by the twenty-one-year-old Gu Yingxuan, which was very suitable.
The night is very quiet, and cicadas ring from time to time in my ears. The leaves sifted a few stars and melted into the incandescent lamps on the side of the road in the flowing light on the ground.
Chen Mingjin came to a lawn where a tombstone fell quietly. He squatted down and gently brushed away the only little dust on it.
Gu Yingxuan, who was standing aside, asked him: "Who is this?"
"My brother." Chen Mingjin's voice was as quiet as this night.
Gu Yingxuan nodded.
"Today is his death day."
"What happened to him?" Gu Yingxuan asked tentatively.
"When he was young, he was killed to protect me."
Chen Mingjin's thoughts drifted to fifteen years ago, when he was only seven years old.
That night, it was also so quiet. He followed his brother out of the house and ran through the alley filled with endless darkness and silence.
The moon hovered alone in the sky, and the light was dim.
Chen Mingjin and his older brother Chen Mingting, five years older than him, hid behind a wall in an abandoned factory. The older brother covered his mouth to prevent him from making a sound and exposing his whereabouts.
Outside was a group of bodyguards in black suits looking for them everywhere.
There were a few used steel bars piled up around the two brothers. Chen Mingting asked his younger brother to take off his coat, then hid his younger brother inside, and told him: "Mingjin, remember, no matter what you hear and see, you must not make a sound! Don't come out! Do you know?"
Chen Mingjin was extremely scared. No matter what his brother said, he just nodded blankly.
Chen Mingting put on his younger brother's coat because it was a bright thin shirt, which was very conspicuous. It was not long after that, the bodyguards discovered it.
"Chasing!" the leader shouted, and everyone chased Chen Mingting in the direction he ran.
Chen Mingting turned his back to them, and the bodyguards did not see who he was. They only saw his coat and chased after him desperately. If they did not complete the task assigned by the boss, they would not have any good results.
Not long after, there was silence around, leaving only the sound of Chen Mingjin's breathing.
Later, Chen Mingjin escaped and was taken in by the director of the orphanage. The next day, he followed his memory to the abandoned factory and found the river.
There were many people gathered there. He pushed the crowd away and saw his brother who could never wake up again.
Chen Mingjin lay down on his brother, crying heart-wrenchingly. He no longer remembers how long he had cried, but only remembers that until the end of his crying, his eyes were almost dark.
"The people who chase you are..."
"It was sent by my father."
Gu Yingxuan was even more surprised: "Why?"
Fifteen years ago, in the evening, the setting sun was as bloody as Chen Mingjin came back from the cram school and returned to the room. As soon as he put down his bag, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the next room.
He went out to see what was going on and found that in the room, his half-sister who had just been born, had fallen into a pool of blood, and was obviously dead.
"And then, I became the murderer of the young sister."
"Ah?" Gu Yingxuan felt that the monk was confused. Why did he kill his sister?
Chen Mingjin seemed to have not heard her voice, but just stared at the brother in the photo. He had been stopped forever at the age of twelve, just like in this photo.
"Brother, I'm here to see you. I'm doing well, don't worry."
"I'm sorry, it seems that I shouldn't mention these things again." Seeing Chen Mingjin's appearance, Gu Yingxuan couldn't bear it.
"It's okay." Chen Mingjin replied in a deep voice, stood up, and breathed deeply.
"You are very lucky to have such an older brother." Gu Yingxuan said.
Chen Mingjin looked at her and smiled and said, "You are very happy and have a father who loves you very much."
Gu Yingxuan's expression dimmed, "But I haven't even had time to repay him..."
Chen Mingjin hugged her in his arms, not knowing whether it was because of his emotions or whether he wanted to keep warm with this girl who was also hurt by family affection.
Gu Yingxuan was shocked.
He subconsciously wanted to push him away, but his hand stopped in the air and stopped moving. He even gradually let go.
...
New York ushered in a new morning. Ling Banxia opened her eyes and woke up. She felt her hand move slightly. Mo Jiu, who had been guarding her side, was awakened.
"Have you been here all the time?"
"Yes. Didn't I promise you? I won't walk away!"
Ling Banxia was a little strange. When did he say this? Last night? No, right? She only remembered that she cried for a long time last night, and then fell asleep in a daze.
Mo Jiu saw that her sister was suspicious, and then she remembered that her sister had forgotten what had happened before. She forgot that she had woken up by a nightmare and found that she was missing. Then she cried in her arms. He comforted her sister and promised that he would not leave.
"Is it broken? Don't you remember?" Mo Jiu's index finger gently tapped her forehead and said, "I don't know who it is. Not only did I cry a lot of my shirt, I fell asleep on my body. I couldn't wake up no matter how I screamed."
Ling Banxia scratched her head, blushed a little embarrassedly, and said, "Well, why don't you take off your shirt and I'll wash it for you."
"That's right, I'll do it myself."
"Hey, you said you wanted to cultivate my independence, but now I can't even know what I know." Ling Banxia said this, and her heart was full of sweetness. A boy would spoil him so much and spoil him as a child.
"I'm by your side now, so you don't have to do these things. I said that I taught you these things to improve your self-confidence, and not let you be a nanny for a stinky brat in the future. Do you know?"
"Oh..." Ling Banxia couldn't hide her smile on her face.
"Hurry changing your clothes, washing your face and brushing your teeth, and then going out for a run."
"oh."
When Ling Banxia finished packing and came out, Mo Jiu had already changed her clothes and was about to set off.
"Hold me, don't run around." Mo Jiu stretched out his hand to her.
"Do you really think I'm a child?" Ling Banxia said arrogantly.
Mo Jiu immediately withdrew his hand: "Okay, stop holding it."
"No, no, no..." Ling Banxia hurried forward and grabbed his arm, then clamped his hands.
"Isn't it very powerful? Let go! I won't let you hold you anymore." Mo Jiu pretended to want to shake her away.
"No!" Ling Banxia grabbed her tighter and tighter.
As soon as he left the door, Mo Jiu suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Ling Banxia asked him.
Mo Jiu sucked in, as if she smelled something unusual.
"Didn't you smell a strange smell?" Mo Jiu lowered his head and asked Ling Banxia.
Only then did Ling Banxia notice that there was indeed a pungent smell around her: "What does this taste like?"
"It seems to be gas!" Mo Jiu exclaimed, looking at the 0622 room on the side, which seemed to be the source of gas emitted.
Mo Jiu hurriedly went to shoot the door of 0622, but there was no sound to respond to him.
Something must have happened.
Mojiu called the property and asked them to send them the spare key of 0622. As soon as the door was opened, the strong smell of gas came to his nose.
