C25 Dirty Memories

"Did you forget all about what happened three years ago? "Indeed, a woman like you has such thick skin, how can you possibly remember it?" She walked behind her and looked back at everyone.

Zuo Xiaoqiu clenched her fingers tightly. What did she want to say?

"I heard it's four people, right..." She whispered a fact into her ear.

Zuo Xiaoqiu's entire body was trembling. She was extremely scared. She felt like she was a ship that was leaking water in all four directions and was about to sink.

Chi Tianye frowned slightly as he looked at Bai Jing. Then, he looked at the trembling Zuo Xiaoqiu.

"Xiaoqiu?" He stood up and pulled her into his embrace. "Bai Jing, what are you trying to say?"

"Tianye, you definitely don't know …"

"I don't want to listen …" Zuo Xiaoqiu suddenly broke away from Chi Tianye's embrace and ran outside in a hurry. Just as she reached the door, she heard Bai Jing's voice coming from inside.

"She's been beaten, and by more than one."

The wind was blowing and the rain was falling. It was a night like this that she experienced the worst night of her life.

That day, she had waited in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau for a whole day. Her cell phone had been out of battery, but she could not reach him.

When she returned to school, she saw him hugging another woman. She was lost, she was angry, she wanted to question him, but she didn't have the courage. She was afraid she would hear him say goodbye.

She ran out of the school. She wanted to go home, but she met those bastards in the narrow alleyway.

She cried and screamed, but she could not find the strength to struggle …

The rain washed against her skin, but it couldn't wash away the dirty memories she felt. She didn't know where to go.

The past, like a cactus pricking into the body, flowed through the blood into the heart and then began to rot.

When she arrived at the Tengqing District, she curled up in a ball downstairs at number 17 and was beaten by the wind and rain.

After an unknown period of time, in a daze, a familiar voice called out, "Xiaoqiu?"

Lifting his head, he saw a sky-blue umbrella shining down on her head, then him.

"Come in!"

She followed him, her head bowed, her vision blank except for the black leather shoes that guided her.

A cup of hot milk was placed in front of him, followed by a blanket and soup noodles …

"I remember now?" His voice was low and warm.

"Hmm …"

"It's all over. You should learn to forget!" He sat down on the side sofa.

"..." She lowered her head and began to eat the noodles. The warm feeling made her feel better, so she put the blanket on top of the tea table and stood up. "I should go, thank you!"

"Xiaoqiu …" That person stood up as well. "We will always welcome you here!"

"Hmm …" She nodded slightly.

She walked to the door and stuffed an umbrella into her hands …

It was a dark night with heavy rain pouring down. She left the city by herself and arrived at the cemetery on the outskirts of the city. As soon as she arrived, she saw that the cemetery, which should have been covered in black paint, was brightly lit.

Then, she fell into a person's embrace. The familiar smell told her that it was Chi Tianye!

"I looked around for you and called Mom. She said you might come here."

"Let go of me …"

"It's okay, I don't care, I really don't care …"

"Pah!" A slap landed on his face.

"You don't care? I care! " She cried as the umbrella in her hand fell to the ground. "Because of you, I didn't see my father for the last time, because of you, I …"
