"Xiao Xi, we're here." Seeing that the carriage had stopped, Gu Li pulled Ye Xi up and said.
Ye Xi shook his head, then got out of the carriage with Gu Li.
Standing in front of the old-fashioned signboard, Ye Xi and Gu Li looked at each other. The clothes the two of them were wearing were stuck to their bodies by the cold wind blowing from the front and back.
Gu Li swallowed his saliva, "Damn, how do I have the guts to act the part of Phantom Town's boss!"
From front to back, the few people who occasionally passed by were all elderly people who had grown up, and their faces were expressionless. She and Gu Li, the two living people, stood in front of them as if they were transparent.
Ye Xi's back felt numbed, and he couldn't help but clench Gu Li's hand, "Shed, do you remember the class monitor's address?"
"I remember." Gu Li said, then pulled Ye Xi along while politely following behind an old grandpa, and asked: "Grandfather, do you know where # 167 is?"
The old grandfather turned his wrinkled face over. His two muddy eyes were cloudy as he looked faintly at Gu Li and Ye Xi, but he did not speak.
Gu Li and Ye Xi's scalps were numb from his gaze. Just as they were about to ask the next person, the old grandpa suddenly raised his withered hand and pointed forward, his voice hoarse."Ahead of you, turn, go straight.
"..." "Oh, oh, thank you grandpa." Gu Li was startled, but quickly nodded and replied.
Ye Xi also nodded politely towards the old grandpa.
Then, Gu Li and Ye Xi walked forward.
Standing in front of a door that had two doors open, Ye Xi pulled the knocker on the door and knocked, "Is anyone there?"
What answered her was a desolate wind.
Ye Xi frowned, and knocked a few more times, "Is there anyone here? Is anyone there? "
There was still no sound from inside.
Gu Li stood at the door and looked at the dirty water in front of his door, as well as the street that looked like it was about to collapse.
She pursed her lips, turned and looked at Ye Xi: "Maybe Su Su's family has moved away, and won't stay here anymore?"
Ye Xi remained silent for a second, then knocked on the door once again, not giving up."Susu, it's me, Susu. Are you inside?
After a while, there was complete silence.
Ye Xi could not help but be disappointed, he sighed, then looked at Gu Li: "Let's go."
Gu Li nodded.
The two of them turned around and walked towards the street entrance.
However, before he could get far, he heard the creaking sound of a door opening behind him.
Ye Xi and Gu Li's eyes lit up at the same time, and they turned to look.
He saw a woman with messy hair and thick makeup leaning on the door and looking at the two of them.
Ye Xi blinked his eyes and looked at Gu Li.
Only then did the two of them walk towards the woman.
"Excuse me, may I ask if Qin Susu lives here?" Standing at the foot of the stairs, Ye Xi looked at the woman and asked softly.
Hearing her words, the lady laughed: "Ye Xi, it's been awhile since we last met, and you don't recognize me anymore?"
Her voice...
Ye Xi swallowed in shock, his eyes that were clear as water were filled with disbelief, "You are Su Su?"
"Heh??" Qin Susu laughed coldly, pushing out her messy curly hair, revealing her original unrecognizable face, she faced Ye Xi, "Look at me, does she look like the Qin Susu you know? Hm? Ye Xi, speak."
"??" Ye Xi clenched his fists.
Her eyes narrowed as she stared at her face.
In such a short period of time, her face had lost a lot of weight. Her chin was sharp, and her hip bones were protruding. Her eyes, however, were abnormally large.
At this moment, she was staring at him with eyes full of hatred.
Ye Xi took a deep breath and felt Gu Li holding her hand.
Ye Xi turned to look at Gu Li, who nodded at her.
"Susu, Xiao Xi and I came to see you because we were worried about you??"
"Care about me?" Qin Susu turned his body, his expression sinister as he interrupted Gu Li's words. He pointed at Ye Xi with his painted bright red nails, and said sharply, "Are you talking about her? "She was worried about me?"
Her reaction caused Ye Xi and Gu Li's hearts to tremble at the same time.
Gu Li tightened his grip on Ye Xi's hand, his face had a look of indignation, "Qin Susu, do you really have to be so forceful when you speak? If we weren't worried about you, why would we have come here to look for you? "
"No need!" Qin Susu roared at Gu Li like a madman, his eyes bloodshot, "I do not need your fake concern. You, Gu Li, in your eyes, all this while, only Ye Xi has been your friend. At most, I am the antidote for your friendship! And you, Ye Xi! "
She bared her teeth and stared at Ye Xi, her ruthless look caused Ye Xi's heart to tremble.
"They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are you playing around in front of me for! Your hypocrisy makes me sick! Remember Ye Xi, I, Qin Susu will be irreconcilable with you in this lifetime! From today onwards, you better pray that you do not fall into my hands, or else, I, Qin Susu will make sure you live, no, live, and die! "
"??" Ye Xi's face was pale white, his body shivering slightly. He looked at her in disbelief, then at the woman who had treated her as a friend. His voice trembled, "Susu, do you know what you're saying?"
"Stop pretending to be Ye Xi!" The hatred in his eyes overflowed to the heavens, almost drowning Ye Xi in it."If it wasn't for you, my mother wouldn't have died, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have sold, and I wouldn't have been forced to leave by the school. If it wasn't for you, my sister wouldn't be lying in the hospital with her life unknown. Ye Xi, Ye Xi, what right do you have to show such an i ocent and injured expression in front of me?
"Enough!" Ye Xi flung Qin Susu's hand away with her red eyes, her small face completely pale.
Facing someone who had always been a true friend of hers, to be able to speak to her in such a fierce and weak ma er was not a lie, but more of it was anger.
When they were in C City, she had scared her for no reason. But now, she was worried about her, and even wanted to see her to check on her situation.
She did this to her.
Closing his eyes, Ye Xi was so tense that his veins were popping out.
"Xiao Xi??" Gu Li was shocked, he worriedly grabbed her hand.
Ye Xi gritted his teeth as he clenched his teeth. After a long while, he finally shook his head, opened his eyes and looked at Qin Susu who was still glaring at her with hatred, "You kept saying that it was me who killed your mother and turned you into?? Tell me, how did I kill your mother, and how did I make you become what you are now? "
