"I have important things to do."
"Let Butler Zhang deliver..."
"No, tell mom for me."
In my memory, Lin Beixing has always been submissive. She was submissive, timid and gentle, and would never be as resolute as she is now.
Seeing her eager mood and long hair flying as she ran, the servant aunt didn't even have time to stop her, and her figure had disappeared into the dark night.
"What's going on here……"
The maid's hand holding the tray stiffened and she mumbled.
Lin Beixing almost ran out.
The wind was very strong tonight, and the cold air felt like a razor blade on my face.
Out of breath, I came to the bustling street. In my field of vision, the gorgeous neon lights swayed in my black eyes.
Lin Beixing stopped a taxi and accurately reported the address of Lu Yu's home.
As soon as the vehicle started, Lin Beixing's cell phone rang.
See the call notes.
Her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a bit.
He raised his trembling fingers and pressed the connect button.
"Hey, Mom."
"Where are you going so late?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was colder than she expected.
"Mom, I have something urgent tonight."
Lin Beixing raised his other hand and held the phone tightly with both hands, as if to cheer himself up.
"Can I...not go home?" she said in a trembling tone.
The woman's voice became a little colder.
"why."
"Mom...I have something very important to do."
"How important is it?"
"Bigger than myself."
Lin Beixing's answer was beyond Lin Ling's expectation.
In the quiet taxi, Lin Beixing spent a long period of silence.
"Tell me first, where are you going?" Lin Ling's cold tone did not soften at all.
Lin Beixing bit his lip.
"Go to the school..."
She was not lying, because Lu Yu's rental house was near the school.So the direction she headed was to Jiangshui No. [-] Middle School.
"Who are you meeting?" Lin Ling asked again.
"friend……"
Boyfriend is also a friend, right?
Lin Beixing didn't feel like he was lying.
She just didn't express it clearly enough.
Lin Beixing was constantly trying to find reasonable self-explanations for her anxious state of mind. She had never had the courage, and it was not easy to overcome her inner obstacles.
"must go?"
"Well... I have to go."
"What time will you be back?"
"I may not come back tonight."
Lin Beixing knew that when he said these words, his voice was so nervous that he was trembling.
She had never done anything to disobey her mother.
It was even more impossible to tell her mother personally that she was going to spend the night outside.
This was a conversation that Lin Beixing had never dared to think about.
"Tomorrow morning is the monthly exam... I will find a hotel near the school to stay."
Lin Beixing spoke in a trembling voice, and his weak tone gradually became humble, more like a begging.
The voice on the other end of the phone paused for a long time. Lin Beixing looked at the call timer and felt that these long 60 seconds seemed like a century had passed.
"I'll book a room for you, and I want to see you staying there tonight, and by yourself."
Lin Ling never thought that her daughter would spend the night outside so resolutely.
But Lin Beixing's tone conveyed to her a feeling that she had made up her mind.
Lin Ling knew that whether she refused or accepted at this time, the result would be the same.
She will disobey her.
Her babbling daughter had grown up.
She seemed to be out of her control, and Lin Ling found that she could no longer control her daughter.
She was a little overwhelmed.
This kind of thing is also difficult for her to deal with.
But in fact, Lin Beixing spent the night outside once.
Lin Beixing ran away from home that time, but she didn't mention it at all later, and that incident became a scar in the hearts of mother and daughter.
Since then, Lin Ling has also conducted deep self-reflection.
Although people around her repeatedly advised Lin Ling to stop, her young eagle was able to spread its wings and soar, and she should let go.
But she always felt that her daughter had not grown up in a real sense.
She still needs her.
"I promise you, Mom."
Lin Beixing agreed to Lin Ling's request without much hesitation.
Her resolute answer left no room for Lin Ling.
Lin Ling was silent again.
She thought for a long time and decided to give in.
"After the matter is over, explain to me the reason." Her tone finally softened a little.
Lin Beixing nodded so hard that Lin Ling could hear her decisiveness: "Okay."
The phone hangs up here.
Lin Beixing looked at the screen of his mobile phone and was in a daze for a while.
She couldn't tell whether her mother was angry or anxious.
She felt that there were probably two emotions.
After putting down his cell phone, Lin Beixing leaned on the inferior leather sofa of the taxi and let out a long sigh of relief.
Mom is ready for now...
But Lin Beixing had no idea about the situation at Lu Yu's side.
He hasn't replied to the message yet...
Lin Beixing didn't dare to think about what kind of state Lu Yu was in now.
Self-blame replaced all emotions, and then a feeling of uneasiness spread throughout my body.
After paying for the taxi, Lin Beixing almost jumped out of the back seat.
The old street is so dark at night.
The dim street lamp could only illuminate the outline of the wall, and there seemed to be an invisible shadow extending towards her at the end of the deep alley.
Lin Beixing was so scared.
She had never been alone on the street at night.
He looked around hastily.
Because the address of Lu Yu's rental house was quite remote, the location where the taxi stopped was not precise. Lin Beixing discerned the direction in front of him in the dark alley, and then ran over like crazy.
The doorman outside the community building was dutifully sitting on a wicker chair to enjoy the cool air. When he heard movement beside him, he opened his eyes and glanced at Lin Beixing.
After coming to the conclusion that "this little girl is harmless," the uncle shook the wicker chair again, but did not block Lin Beixing's way.
Lin Beixing successfully entered the community and walked up the unit building.
When she arrived at Lu Yu's door, she squatted down and quickly found the key that had been placed in the gap.
The gap was a bit dirty, and it was full of traces left by cockroaches and mice. Without saying anything, Lin Beixing put his finger in and took out the key.
Lin Beixing, standing in front of the iron gate, hesitated for a moment.
Good quality education taught her that no matter whose room you enter, you should knock on the door first.
But at this moment, Lin Beixing obviously didn't care about so much anymore.
She desperately inserted the key into the doorhole.
"Crack..."
The iron door opened and Lin Beixing rushed in.
"Lu Yu!"
The moment he entered, Lin Beixing smelled the strong smell of alcohol.
The pungent smell even made it difficult to open my eyes.
Lin Beixing saw the broken glass pieces on the ground, with a layer of transparent liquid overflowing there.
Lin Beixing suddenly realized that before switching bodies, what she knocked over was not Lu Yu's water glass, but the remaining half of the bottle of vodka!
"Lu Yu!!"
Lu Yu sat on the computer chair, holding his chest and breathing.
He coughed twice violently, not sure if it was because of the effect of alcohol or because the smell in the air was too pungent.
Lu Yu raised his hazy eyes. The areas around his eyes were red and his cheeks were extremely rosy. Lin Beixing knew that this was a sign of being drunk.
He was obviously surprised by Lin Beixing's arrival.
Lu Yu was slightly startled, and Lin Beixing's heart trembled when he heard the weak voice.
"I am dead?"
"what are you saying!!"
Lin Beixing quickly walked over and helped him up. Lu Yu looked up in confusion.
"Are you hallucinating? Why are my hallucinations so real?"
"..." Lin Beixing felt both crying and funny for a moment.
"I am...your Lin Beixing..."
she shouted in a tearful voice.
Lu Yu was so dizzy that he couldn't find his direction. The first few times he tried to stand up, he slipped on the floor and sat back down. Now someone was supporting him, and he finally stood up weakly.
Just as his legs gained strength, they suddenly became a little unstable. Lu Yu stumbled forward. Lin Beixing tried his best to support him and guide him to sit on the bed.
Lu Yu wanted to sit up, but as soon as his body touched the bed, he fell down.
