Chapter 1: The Day Does Not Understand the Darkness of the Night 02
Grandpa Lin finally left.
That day, Shen Chuxue wore pure white mourning clothes, but she did not kneel in the front because Uncle Lin said that she was not worthy. This sentence kept echoing in Shen Chuxue's ears. In the years that followed, her hatred grew stronger, and even though it was diluted by Lin Jianluo, she always remembered these words.
She knelt and looked up. Lin Jianluo was crying and calling for grandpa. Shen Chuxue only shed a few tears and couldn't cry anymore. Those people in the Lin family said that Shen Chuxue was inhuman.
After the funeral, Grandma Shen fell ill and lay in bed, unable to get up, just like Grandpa Lin before, except that there was no one to take care of her except Shen Chuxue.
"You'd better move out quickly, don't let me call the police." Lin Jingpeng, the eldest son of the Lin family, kicked the door of Grandma Shen's room loudly. Shen Chuxue was startled and a little confused, then looked up and saw that her grandmother had just fallen asleep and was woken up.
Grandma Shen looked sad. She struggled to get up and said to Lin Jingpeng who was standing at the door: "Dapeng, I beg you, Chuxue is still so young, how can she survive if she leaves here!"
Lin Jingpeng rolled his eyes and said in a rude tone: "Didn't you survive before you came to the Lin family? Otherwise, would my dad let you bring a burden in? Hurry up!" After that, he turned and left.
As Grandma Shen had been ill and unable to get up, Lin Jingpeng watched Grandma Shen take a lot of medicine and was afraid that she would die at home, so he discussed with his family and took the two generations of grandparents and grandchildren to court.
Grandpa Lin and Grandma Shen had a good relationship and thought that a marriage certificate was no big deal. However, because of this oversight, Grandma Shen was not protected by the law without a marriage certificate and eventually had to move out of the Lin family.
It was also winter. When Shen Chuxue and Grandma Shen left the Lin family, they did not see Lin Jianluo.
When we were young, separation was so easy.
Thinking back to this, Shen Chuxue took a deep breath.
The stamped envelope was heavy. Shen Chuxue sat on the chair and looked at it carefully. She knew what was written inside without opening it - the Lin family asked them to pay for the expenses of Grandma Shen's living in the Lin family for many years. The amount was enough to crush Shen Chuxue.
Grandma always said that one should forgive others when possible, trying to resolve the growing hatred in Shen Chuxue's eyes, but she didn't expect that the two of them were the ones who deserved to be forgiven the most.
Shen Chuxue suddenly woke up in the middle of the night. She didn't know what she had dreamed about, and her forehead was covered with sweat. She sat up gently and pushed her grandmother. Usually, her grandmother always coughed and couldn't sleep at night, but why was there no sound today?
"Grandma, wake up and have a drink of water." Shen Chuxue increased her strength and continued pushing.
Grandma Shen remained silent.
Shen Chuxue was stunned for a while, then slowly put her hand under grandma's nose, took her hand back after a long time, and sat cross-legged beside grandma.
If Grandpa Lin couldn't survive the winter, Grandma Shen couldn't survive it either.
Lin Jianluo counted on his fingers how many days it had been since he last saw Sister Chuxue.
That day, Lin Jianluo ran upstairs happily after school, but Shen Chuxue was no longer in the pink room, and all the things related to her were gone.
It was at this time that Lin Jianluo realized that there was very little trace of Shen Chuxue in this room.
It seemed that all she took away were a few books on the desk.
"Where is Sister Chuxue?" Lin Jianluo asked his father.
Lin Jingpeng was busy calculating the numbers in the old man's account and had no time to pay attention to Lin Jianluo.
The young Lin Jianluo stood in the room for a long time and finally cried because he had a feeling that he would never see Sister Shen again...
When you are sad, you have to cry. This is the biggest difference between him and Shen Chuxue.
For three whole days, Lin Jianluo refused to eat or drink and just cried and made a fuss. Lin Jingpeng couldn't stand it anymore and told him that Shen Chuxue didn't want to live in the Lin family and must move out. He also asked them not to tell Lin Jianluo. Only then did Lin Jianluo give up.
In the evening, Lin Jianluo couldn't sleep, so he sneaked into Shen Chuxue's room and sat on the sofa. In the past, he would sit on the sofa every time he came in, not going anywhere, just looking at Shen Chuxue. He was still young, and he didn't know what love was, he just wanted to look at her.
Finally, he fell asleep in Shen Chuxue's room.
Lin Jianluo had a dream.
In the dream, Shen Chuxue reached out her hand to him for the first time. There was a piece of candy in her palm. She curved her lips and said, "Don't tease me. I'll give you candy. Go over there and read a book." She was taller than Lin Jianluo. When Lin Jianluo looked up, the first thing he saw was the curve of Shen Chuxue's lips.
