Rebirth: Starting from Saving the Desperate Girl

Chapter 133 Who would take it seriously?

Utility room.

The yellowish light shines quietly.

Bai Congdong squatted by the wall for a while, and finally stood up slowly.

The moment I stood up, I felt a little dazed. I guess it was because I had been squatting for too long and the blood circulation was poor.

The music box in my arms has stopped playing for a long time... Of course, it is not impossible to make it continue playing, just press the switch again.

But at this moment, she probably didn't have the courage to do so.

Her mind was a little confused, even blank, and the girl just held the music box in her arms and walked towards the door little by little.

Fortunately, as usual, there are no outsiders at home now, and only my sister is still reading a book on the sofa.

Oh yes...sister.

Bai Congdong slowly came back to his senses, and his slightly dilated pupils refocused.

She walked down the stairs barefoot, holding the handrail.

The footsteps were actually very light, but the girl sitting on the sofa should have heard them, so she put down the book in her hand and turned to look.

Then his expression was obviously stunned.

"what happened?"

Bai Congqiu frowned slightly. She rarely saw her sister show such an expression since several years ago.

It's hard to describe. Although his face looks no different from usual, his eyes are dull and his gait is stiff, lacking his ever-present agility.

"This one……"

Bai Congdong walked downstairs, came to his sister, sat next to her, and handed her the box in his arms.

The latter took it, but didn't speak immediately. He looked it up and down in his hand, and after finding the switch, he asked with his eyes.

After the girl nodded, Bai Congqiu tried to gently twist the spring.

"Yes, I pressed it..."

Bai Congdong snatched it back and corrected it in a low voice.

Then the slightly distorted boy's voice sounded again.

Bai Congqiu was stunned after hearing this.

But she didn't know the whole story, so she could only guess in her heart while listening carefully and looking at her sister beside her.

She was intelligent by nature and could guess a little bit.

Just a little confused...

Taking advantage of the break when the song ended, Bai Congqiu slowly spoke.

"Is this what he gave you?"

"Ah."

"…Why so sudden?"

Hearing his sister's question, Bai Congdong hesitated for a moment, but still told her the truth about what happened between him and Ye Qianqian yesterday.

"He sang it before... I heard it yesterday and it reminded me that I still have this thing at home."

Bai Congqiu listened quietly and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a new voice coming from the box.

Her pupils shrank slightly, and her usually calm expression finally showed a new reaction.

There is surprise, nostalgia, and a little bit of... understanding?
It’s like a question that has been bothering me for years finally has an answer.

Bai Congdong silently shifted his gaze away and his sight fell on the yellowed and old music box.

"So...are you regretting it?"

After a while, Bai Congqiu spoke.

The girl didn't answer, but just picked up the music box again, neither admitting nor refuting.

"So, when you went to your aunt's house, you cried and said that you left something at home... Is that what you said?"

This time, the girl nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Bai Congqiu's indifferent eyes moved slightly.

She picked up the book and suddenly said, "Then you don't have to care too much."

"What do you mean?"

"Not to mention why it was lost in the first place...it's been a while since I returned to China."

This time, the girl was stunned, as if she realized what she wanted to say, and her shoulders began to tremble slightly.

However, the voice did not pause, and continued to speak slowly. "It turns out... you forgot."

"I don't know if he took it seriously, but at least you didn't take it seriously."

Bai Congqiu's voice was the same as usual. He did not emphasize any word, but just stated a fact lightly.

The truth that the girl was most reluctant to face and the most difficult to accept was revealed bit by bit and placed in front of her.

Like falling into an ice cellar.

"I'm not……"

She tried to argue in a low voice, but the words got stuck in her lips and she couldn't utter them.

Bai Congqiu had already closed the book and walked upstairs.

"Think about it."

"Maybe... you don't like him as much as you think."

……

……

Magic City, a little further away from the city center.

Next to the middle and lower reaches of the Qingjiang River, there is an upscale residential area called Qingjiang Academy.

This is a newly built area in recent years. Rumor has it that in order to grab this area, countless construction companies fought secretly, vying for life and death, and getting bloodied.

Unfortunately, it seemed to have been snatched away by an outsider in the end... So much so that every time people in the industry get together, they can't help but talk about this matter as a topic of conversation after dinner.

The reason may be that the outsider himself is strong enough... However, after all, this is a society where human relationships are important. If a strong dragon can suppress a local snake, his background must be very powerful.

at this time.

It was late at night.

Inside Qingjiang Academy, a window was brightly lit.

There was a young man wearing only pajamas, leaning on the balcony, holding a phone.

He had a faint smile on his face and took a sip of the boiled water in his hand as he spoke.

"Mom...don't worry, you two can just enjoy your honeymoon in peace, and make up for what you missed..."

"Well...if there's anything, I'll call in time."

After Chen An finished speaking, he waited for the other party to hang up the phone before putting the phone back in his pocket.

He squinted his eyes, feeling the slight coolness brought by the evening breeze.

Leaning on the railing and looking into the distance, you can see the lights of thousands of homes, a dazzling array of things.

In 2010, again in Shanghai, it is not surprising to see scenes that are almost the same as those in later times.

It will probably be just two years before 4G becomes popular...By then, short video platforms will rise, various bloggers and internet celebrities will emerge, and the slogan "traffic is king" will probably officially enter people's field of vision.

Chen An thought about it, slowly flattened the paper cup in his hand, and threw it into the bucket at his feet.

The evening breeze blew up the boy's bangs, revealing a pair of dark eyes that looked somewhat comfortable.

Any matter often has two sides.

Just like he complained before that he was too young, which restricted him in every way, and he could only rely on throwing money online and fooling people with his mouth...

But I have to say that having money is useful. Even if you have no evidence, as long as you really give money away, you will never lack followers.

After all, Party A is always the dad.

Suddenly, his trouser pocket shook, interrupting Chen An's scattered thoughts.

He took out his cell phone and answered the call.

A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"What are you doing?"

"daze."

"That's a guess."

The female voice seemed speechless.

Chen An smiled and said, "Am I so easy to guess?"

"That's not true..."

The woman's voice paused slightly, "You are not easy to guess what's in your mind. You are obviously a generation younger than me, but you were able to deceive me."

Even though so much time has passed, Shu Keqing still feels a little ashamed every time she thinks back to that experience.

How could I have lost my mind and been tricked by him into going into the sea?
