Chapter 115: Deceased Wife (3)
Chapter 115: Deceased Wife (3)
The corridor without carpet does not absorb sound, and the footsteps of the four people were infinitely amplified and echoed in the corridor.
The overhead lights tended to be orange-red, and a few of them were broken and wouldn't light up.
There were no windows, blocking out the sunlight, and the entire corridor was dark.
Some of the doors of the rooms on both sides were wide open, while some of the doors were left with only a gap. It should be that the residents had just checked out and the cleaning staff had not yet finished cleaning the rooms.
There is a stainless steel cart parked at the door, and through the crack in the door you can see a cleaning lady in a black uniform shaking a white cloth.
The room numbers were hung on the wall. Shi Jinzhe glanced at the number in Sheh's hand, walked to the end of the corridor and turned left.
After turning, you can continue to turn left at the end of the corridor.
This is a rare hotel with a U-shaped layout.
While counting the numbers on the doors, Shi Jinzhe saw that there were also rooms with doors that were not closed properly.
There were coughing sounds coming from inside, and there were other residents on this floor.
When we reached the number range of 406-412, two broken lights appeared on the ceiling of the corridor and the light gradually dimmed.
His sight inadvertently passed by the door of 409, and he saw two grayish-white dots flashing through a narrow dark gap.
He squinted his eyes, unsure if he was seeing things.
Shi Jinzhe looked again carefully, but found nothing.
"Shekh, do you notice anything wrong?"
"No." Sheh walked to the door of Room 403, put the room card in, and opened the door with a beep.
Meng Chengxi lived in room 402 diagonally opposite them, and the four of them separated before entering the door.
The standard room is less than 20 square meters and has two single beds placed side by side.
The conditions are slightly better than those of a budget hotel. The interior decoration is the same as the corridor, with a long gold and red bed flag at the end of the bed.
When Shi Jinzhe walked to the window, he saw a U-shaped open space in the center downstairs with a pavilion and a small garden.
Sheh came out of the bathroom and said, "There's nothing wrong with the mirror, and there's nothing wrong with the bathroom either."
Shi Jinzhe closed the curtains and said, "Well, what did you want to say just now?"
"Points, have your points ever been bought by Cheng Youan?"
Sheh said: "If he has bought it, it's too cheap for him. Let's take his phone and then raise all the prices to the highest."
"It's a good idea. Don't let go of those around him. They can lead people through the game, so they must have a lot of props, especially the one named Liu Run. It was he who proposed to hand over the greeting card. Although the decision was made by Cheng's parents, if it wasn't me, someone else would have fallen for it. I feel at ease to rob him."
"Then we can keep the good ones and let Cheng Youan buy the bad ones at a high price."
Shi Jinzhe sat down at the end of the bed: "He may not have that much money on him. If you want more money, you have to start from Cheng Yun."
Sheh didn't hesitate, "How to do it?"
Shi Jinzhe paused for a moment before speaking, "Don't you think that what I did is very ruthless and shameless?"
"Why is he so ruthless and shameless?" Sheh also sat down at the end of the bed and looked into his eyes. "Is it because he raised you? But his upbringing was not pure. He made you do a lot of things that made you unhappy but that he liked."
"Without him, I'd probably still be in the orphanage."
Of course he had resentment towards the Cheng family, but it was undeniable that he saw a different world in the Cheng family.
If he had stayed in the orphanage, he would not have had the chance to come into contact with those things.
Sheh asked again: "Who gave you the name Shijinzhe? Did you give it to yourself?"
"No, the name was put in my clothes and sent to the orphanage with me. I told you the origin of my name. The poem and the name were written on a piece of paper, both in my clothes."
"It's an endless farewell to the traveler. I hate the separation."
Shi Jinzhe smiled faintly: "You have a good memory. After such a long time, you can still remember the poem that I only said once."
Sheh didn't understand why he was laughing, wasn't this supposed to be a sad memory.
I really don’t understand.
"Apart from the name, is there anything else? Is this all?"
"There is also a willow branch." Shi Jinzhe stretched out his hand and gestured to her:
"It was longer than I was at the time. The aunt at the orphanage was reluctant to throw it away. She said it was the only thing she could keep as a souvenir, so she planted the willow branch. Later, it was transplanted to the Cheng family's garden."
A hint of green flashed across Shehe's mind as she thought about Shi Jinzhe's words. She tilted her head slightly, and when she thought about it again, the hint of green disappeared.
I don’t understand, but it doesn’t affect Sheh’s opinion: “You have your own name, and now you have nothing to do with the Cheng family.
It's like a family adopts a very good dog that can guard the house and do many things, but one day they find another dog that is good for nothing except being cute. So they think you are redundant and abandon you regardless of your past companionship and dedication.
Not only are you homeless, but you are also beaten every time they see you. They don't treat you as a human being anymore, so why can't you bite back hard? "
"..."
When the time is up, press the center of your eyebrows.
He was moved by Sheh's comfort, but Shi Jinzhe felt as if he was being scolded by Sheh's metaphor.
"Shekh, that's a good example. Don't give it again next time."
"But this is the truth." Shekh turned his face away, "Maybe your adoptive father never wanted a son to be loved by them."
But a good guard dog.
Shehe suppressed the second half of the sharp sentence and did not say it out loud, but she believed that Shi Jinzhe could understand.
Shi Jinzhe's adoption came with a mission from the very beginning.
The Cheng family adopted the child not for the child to enjoy family affection, but because there was a lack of someone in this position.
Sheh said: "I just think you didn't do enough, I don't think you are ruthless or shameless."
Shi Jinzhe moved his body unsmoothly, as if trying to hide his relaxation:
“…In fact, I know that if Cheng Youan can live in peace with me, then when he comes back, my mission will probably be to work for him for the rest of my life.
If we can't live in peace, then I can coax Qi Huiyun and make Cheng Yun an example of successful education. Then my mission will be accomplished."
Shekh found that the happy smile on his face just now became inexpressible again.
But since Shi Jinzhe knew everything, why did he still ask himself that question?
She was a little confused. Would she think that Shi Jinzhe was ruthless and shameless?
But whether she felt it or not would not affect his resentment towards the Cheng family.
Besides, he can make the decision on his own, why should he ask himself?
Sheh was confused, would I feel…
He was asking about his own opinion, was he trying to get some feedback?
He wants to know how I feel?
Good or bad?
"Are you afraid that I will think bad of you?" Sheh asked directly.
Shi Jinzhe's eyes stayed on her tightly pursed lips for a long time, and the result was a most straightforward question.
He looked away and answered after a breath: "Yes."
"I think you are very nice. You always respond to my requests."
Shi Jinzhe's uneasy heart was relieved by Shehe's immediate reply. She didn't think she was a bad person, so he didn't need to care about his moral reputation.
