I bit the tender flesh in my mouth and kept silent. I didn't know about Fu Jing's relationship with my sister at that time. If I knew, why would I do that?
"All right, Jiang Miao." Fu Jing frowned. He took out his phone and scratched it. "This man, I don't want to see him again in North city."
I was shocked. The picture on his phone screen was clearly Bai Guang.
"If you do this, fu ming will put the bill on me." I said.
Fu Jing squinted at me. "If I don't do this, she won't count on you?"
I was speechless. Whether Bai Guang or not, Fu Ming hated me.
After Jiang Miao left, Fu Jing took me home. He only went downstairs. I went upstairs myself. Just as I was getting out of the elevator, I was about to open the door with my keys. Suddenly, someone covered my mouth from behind.
I opened my mouth and took a bite. The person behind me suddenly let go. I turned around and looked. "Bai Guang? What do you want?"
"Chen Qing, you ruined me. It's not easy for me anyway, so let's not be together." There was a burning sensation in Bai Guang's eyes.
I was a little flustered and my feet were weak. I could only stand against the wall. "Nonsense, you betrayed our feelings first. If you don't have a bad heart, you won't end up like this."
"Things have come to this point. You can die with me." He dragged me to the window in the corridor.
I took out my bag and threw it on the ground. I threw one every two steps. I was still hoping to be saved.
"Are you really going to die? If you die, there will be nothing. Your parents worked hard to nurture you. You want to die before you filial them? Fu Ming hasn't given up on you yet. How do you know there's no chance?" I tried to stall for time and reached for the phone in my pocket.
"Fu Ming, she's completely disappointed in me. I'm like a stray dog now. I have no way to go. I'm going to die anyway. Didn't you always say you loved me? Then come with me." He pulled me over and sat on the window.
When the wind blew in, my mind cleared up a little. "Don't be impulsive. Listen to me."
I used the feeling of my phone to call the police. I was afraid that I might have pressed the wrong number. I looked down and Bai Guang suddenly grabbed my phone and threw it downstairs.
I was completely stunned. Was he going to throw me down like this? After a long time, an echo sounded.
I tried desperately to retreat, but Bai Guang dragged me like this, one leg sticking out of the window.
I was in a terrible panic. I was afraid of death and of heights. I was a hundred unwilling to let me fall down and die.
"Help." I shouted, no matter how useful or useless, I will fight for it.
A hurried sound of footsteps appeared in our pull. Fu Jing's face appeared in my sight. My hand reached out to him, but Bai Guang had already carried me to the window. As long as he tried harder, I would definitely fall down with him.
I don't want to die.
"Fu Jing, save me." My throat is almost dry.
Fu Jing frowned, and the way he ran towards the building became the only thing I saw when I fell.
I felt like I was going to die in the moment of weightlessness, but in less than a second, someone grabbed my raised hand.
"Hold on to me." The veins on Fu Jing's forehead bulged and his face turned red.
I desperately grabbed his hand, and Bai Guang was pulling my leg.
"Chen Qing, I can't live and you can't live." Bai Guang pulled me down hard.
I gritted my teeth and kicked him. "Even if I die, I won't die with you. You disgust me."
The tug of war between me and Bai Guang ended in my victory. When he really broke away from my feet, I couldn't tell what it felt like. When fu jing pulled me through the window and stepped on the floor again, my feet went soft and collapsed on the floor.
Bai Guang and I also had a past. We went through three years of college together. Ever since we graduated, our hearts have parted ways. Now, this is beyond my expectation. I seem to have heard the sound of his landing. I covered my ears and hugged my head, sitting on the ground for a long time without reacting.
Fu Jing took me home and poured me a glass of water.
I asked, "Why did you come up?"
"Jiang Miao said he saw Bai Guang in this neighborhood."
"So you're afraid that something might happen to me?" I answered.
He didn't say a word, but I will never forget the scene he just rushed over. He gave me the happiness and steadiness after my rebirth. I suddenly realized that I felt different about Fu Jing.
I found out about Bai Guang's death two hours later. I was sitting at the police station making a statement, and it was already night after that. Fu Jing sent me back, and he left after that. I kept him.
"Do you like my sister?"
"Yes." Fu Jing's answer was neither quick nor slow, and I couldn't guess any of his possible thoughts.
I swallowed, my fingers intertwined because of nervousness. "Are you giving me money to study and live for me out of guilt for her?"
He grunted.
"Then you don't like her at all." I looked into his eyes with certainty.
Fu Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, with a dangerous air in them. "How can you judge my feelings?"
"If you like her, she dies, and you take care of her sister, it's not out of guilt, but a sense of responsibility. You feel guilty because you don't like her at all." Actually, I don't know what I'm talking about.
"Chen Qing, what do you want to do?"
I ignored his question and continued to ask, "How long are you going to keep me?"
"I never thought about that." He shut his eyes.
"You have to support me anyway, or we can live together." I tilted my head to look at him.
Fu Jing frowned and his tone suddenly turned cold. "I'm half your brother-in-law."
I froze and watched him get up from the sofa and go out. I sat there for a long time until Fu Jing called. He said that tomorrow was the anniversary of my sister's death. He was going to take me to the grave.
Living in this house, I thought about my sister's life nine years ago through the only traces here. I wanted to know if she loved Fu Jing, and if I could love Fu Jing.
The next morning, fu jing came to pick me up. I was dressed in black and went to the cemetery with him. When I saw my sister's picture on the tombstone, tears streamed down my face.
When my mother was still alive, my sister and I had a bad relationship, and we always fought over everything. But ever since my mother died, my father found an aunt and came back, and our sisters united to deal with our stepmother.
Although it was hard to live under my stepmother's clutches, at least there was food, drink, and school. It was only because of me that my sister was implicated and kicked out of the house with me.
When my stepmother was pregnant, I went to the doctor and said it was my son. I overheard her talking to my father. Even if I didn't push her down the stairs on purpose and cause her to miscarry, my sister and I would have a harder time. I didn't regret that I pushed her down the stairs.
My sister blamed me. After I explained, she understood. We had no choice but to eat and study, so she decided to go out and work for me to study. She would treat her well after I worked, but...
