Chapter 15 "Them"

Looking at Shen Si's leaving back with half-drooped eyelids, Lin Rulu heard Lin Chen calling in his ear: "Xiaolu."

Lin Rulu only pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger in front of Shen Si. To her brother, she had no desire to speak at all, and she didn't even turn her head.

The 24-year-old young president gallops around the mall, but he has no choice but to be true to his sister.He pursed his lips a little decadently, and called her again: "Xiaolu, I'm sorry."

This sorry must be heard by her.

"I sold the overseas shares of the company." At a price that was several times lower than the market price, Lin Chen coughed lightly and continued, "I will stay with you more."

Lin Rulu's strange behavior didn't come suddenly. During his rebellious teenage years, Lin Chen didn't notice her abnormality in time.

She dyed her black hair like a waterfall yellow, pierced her ears and wore all kinds of earrings, heavy makeup, and her clothes did not match the maturity of her age.

Lin Chen was just a young man in his early 20s at the time. He thought it was just that the little girl had become more beautiful. He was a man, so he couldn't say too much.

However, something happened in Lin Rulu's third year of junior high school.

If it weren't for that time, Lin Chen would never have imagined that the little milk dumpling who sweetly called him "brother" when he was a child would one day be involved in the four words campus violence.

The girl who was bullied by the campus committed suicide by swallowing medicine, and spent a whole night in the hospital before saving her life.

Lin Chen will never forget that day, when he saw Lin Rulu when he walked into the ward, she looked into her eyes.Bottomless, like a pool of stagnant water.

That was Lin Chen's busiest period of time. He had to deal with company affairs, the girl's parents who wanted to send Lin Rulu to the police station, and her younger sister who was in a very bad psychological condition.

For a whole month, Lin Rulu didn't say a word, made an extra expression, and acted like a robot.

She took a break from school for half a year, didn't even go out of the house once, and missed the high school entrance examination.

It wasn't until the beginning of school that Lin Rulu said the only thing to him: "I want to go to school."

Lin Rulu cut her waist-length hair short, dyed it back to black, no longer wore heavy makeup, and wore the simplest school uniform.She has become fond of smiling, smiling sweetly to everyone, she looks no different from ordinary people, there is no trace of the former little Taimei.

But he was the only one who was indifferent to Lin Chen and didn't say a word.

The doctor who has been doing psychological counseling for her said that she split into a second personality, with one side being kind and the other side being evil.

Fortunately, the evil side was deeply buried, and now Lin Rulu is as clean as a piece of white paper.

Lin Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.

But later on, he discovered that Lin Rulu's 'kindness' was not that simple.

Lin Rulu didn't look back, but she heard it.

She hated Lin Chen, and she knew clearly that she couldn't blame him.

But when I was in my teens, when I was curled up on the bed alone listening to the thunder I feared most; When he was holding the knife, he hated his brother in his heart.

She was only ten years old at that time!Suffered and experienced these alone.

Lin Rulu urgently needs to find a vehicle to vent her dissatisfaction with life and the world.

So she transferred these violent forms to the classmates around her, skipping classes, fighting... smoking and drinking.

He hangs out with a group of young ladies all day long, and completely mixes himself up like a human being.

If a person despises himself, what's the point of living?
Lin Rulu was in a daze until the girl committed suicide.Her spirit was suddenly tense, her heart was tangled and complicated, and two voices kept circulating in her mind——

"Hate it, go hate this world, go hate brother. They all deserve to die, everyone except you deserves to die, you should be surly by nature."

Another voice said: "The world is still very beautiful, with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, the gentle warm wind, and the warm sun. Whatever you think of, you can fight for it by yourself, even if it is by any means."

Later, the two voices became two 'people'.

She can feel the presence of 'them'.

I vaguely remember that day——

"Which class are you in? Where's the school uniform? Don't you know you have to wear a school uniform on Monday? If you don't speak, you'll be punished! I'll inform your head teacher later!" the dean yelled at her.

Lin Rulu's hands were clenched tightly at that time, and her nails sank deep into the flesh, she was restraining herself.

The 'she' in my mind said: "Hey, did you see it? You obviously gave the school uniform to an old lady who suffered from heat stroke on the side of the road. But no one will listen to your explanation. All your explanations are sophistry in the eyes of others. Hurry up and talk back, don't be so stupid that you don't know how to resist when you are bullied."

On the verge of her emotional outburst, a school uniform fell from the sky and covered her head tightly, like a shelter, and more like redemption.

Accumulated resentment and dissatisfaction disappeared in one rush.

Lin Rulu pulled down his school uniform, staring blankly at that figure.

The heartbeat is really loud.

Coming out of the memory, Lin Rulu's bright eyes flickered, and he said the only plain words between him and Lin Chen: "I will get better."

is a declarative sentence.

It's all going to be fine.As long as he's around, everything will be fine.

Even in the flat tone, Lin Chen was ecstatic when he heard it.

Lin Rulu hadn't spoken to him for a long time.

Dazed by this surprise, the corners of Lin Chen's mouth curled up unconsciously, almost writing the word "happiness" on his face. He responded:

"Yes, it will."

When Shen Si came back, he happened to hear this sentence.He didn't ask much, and put the small cake he bought into Lin Rulu's hands. Lin Rulu took it with a bent smile, "Thank you."

But when he saw the gauze on the palm of his hand, his eyes darkened.She can get Shen Si's attention and pity by hurting herself, but she doesn't want Shen Si to get hurt.

Lin Rulu gently took his hand, put it next to his face, and said distressedly: "Does it hurt? I'll blow it up for you, huh~"

It doesn't hurt, but it's numb and itchy after Lin Rulu blows warm air.

Shen Si withdrew his hand, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."

When Lin Chen drove the car to the downstairs of Shen Si and stopped, Shen Si thanked him and got out of the car.As a result, the door on the other side of the car also slammed, and then a rabbit-like figure flew straight into his arms.

When he lowered his eyes, he saw Lin Rulu holding his arm, looking at him with wet peach eyes.

Like some kind of little beast.

Lin Chen also got out of the car, and nodded at him: "Xiaolu will ask classmate Shen to take care of it, and I will send the money on time."

Shen Si: "..."

Didn't this kind of thing go through his consent?
