"They're all drinking. I don't drink much." The voice of the shepherd's name was as calm as ever with a bit of lightness.
Looking at the traffic jam ahead, Lu Yao slowed down and asked casually, "are you a local?"
When she asked, she remembered that she didn't know anything about him.
Mu Ming's eyes, which were almost hidden in the dark, flashed a trace of light. He turned his eyes and looked at her. He said calmly, "no, my family is in Lincheng. It's not far from here. After graduation, I'll come here directly to look for a job."
"Oh, my parents are over there, too?"
The car suddenly fell into silence.
Lu Yao is stunned and subconsciously looks at him. But in the night, the light in the car is very dark, and he can't see his expression clearly."What's the matter?"
"I have no father, only one mother." He suddenly looked at her with a smile.
Lu Yao's heart suddenly trembled with that smile. Inexplicably, she felt cold on her back and shaking her hands. The steering wheel almost deviated.
When she calmed down, she apologized in a hurry, "yes, I'm sorry, I don't know..."
Mu Ming didn't seem to notice her abnormality. She turned her eyes to the front and said in a flat tone: "it's OK. I'm a single parent family. I haven't had a father since I was a child. I'm used to it."
Lu Yao didn't expect that his usual sunny and lively temperament grew up in this environment, but it didn't seem surprising that everyone had their own way of life, and even she had many unknown secrets.
She has not been able to comfort people, can only shallow smile, "you are so big, and so hard, in the future will be better, you still have a mother."
As soon as she lost her voice, a cool, low voice came out in the dark, "my mother is not here."
"......"
"Ah
Lu Yao is startled. One of her hands is out of control. The car suddenly bumps straight to the side of the fence. Fortunately, she responds in time and quickly holds the steering wheel to make a turn. The front of the car quickly turns a corner and does not hit it. She is so scared that she steps on the brake.
Because of the inertia, she rushed forward and stopped. However, after a few seconds of change, her face had turned pale and she was short of breath. Suddenly, she looked at Mu Ming with a sharp side face, "sorry, I didn't control the direction well. Are you ok?"
Mu Ming's face seemed to have no fluctuation. He looked at her quietly for a few seconds and chuckled, "I'm fine. I'm sorry. I scared you just now."
Lu Yao is still panting, five fingers clenching the steering wheel. Her palms are wet with sweat. She feels uncomfortable. She can't tell what it is. But she is really scared. She can't tell whether it is because of his voice or what he said.
"Sister Yao, why don't I drive it?" Mu Ming looked at her and said.
"No, no, you drink." Lu Yao has not yet recovered from her trance. She shakes her head, reverses, returns to the track and continues to drive forward.
Only this time, she divided into careful, a pair of eyes do not turn to look at the front, no longer dare to shift attention.
"Actually, my mother just died half a year ago." The name of the herdsman murmured in a low voice, continuing the topic just now.
Lu Yao was stunned. She felt flustered and frightened again. She didn't know if she had not stepped out of control of the car just now, but she couldn't interrupt him. Maybe he just drank too much and wanted to tell her something.
With a frown, she drove carefully and asked carefully, "were you still in school at that time?"
In a single parent family, the only family member who has been with him for more than 20 years has also passed away. This is indeed a blow that people can't accept. Besides, he is still so small that he may have held his heart for a long time and can't express it.
"Well, just preparing for graduation."
Lu Yao has some subtle heartache. She purses her lips and organizes how to comfort him. Before she can speak, she hears him suddenly calm and cold: "sister Yao, do you know how she died?"
"She..." Although Lu Yao has been looking in front of her, she can clearly feel his strong vision. She is inexplicably flustered, and her expression begins to be stiff, "ah, Auntie What's the matter? "
In front of the non-stop driving vehicles, bright lights, through the windshield, flashing between, shining on their faces.
A little pale, a cold and treacherous.
But Lu Yao didn't turn her head or see it. She just heard the man's voice clearly in a harsh whistle.
"She killed herself."
Lu Yao's heart was full of shock. She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar and her limbs were cold.
She felt that the atmosphere in the car was oppressed, like a pair of hands tightly pinching her neck, making her unable to breathe. She wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say. Suddenly, she turned around and asked, "is this the intersection?"
Mu Ming faintly withdrew his sight and looked forward, "no, the next intersection is here."
"Well, it will be there soon."
She squeezed out a smile, and then she looked away, speechless and speechless. In less than two minutes, the car stopped at an intersection, and Mu Ming took the initiative to untie his seat belt and was about to get off.
Lu Yao's eyes flashed slightly. The impulse from nowhere suddenly pressed his shoulder and said seriously and slowly: "you still have a lot of way to go. Don't think about anything. Setbacks and difficulties will pass. As long as you work hard, you will eventually get the life you want It'll give her rest."
Mu Ming's body was a little stiff, then turned back to her with a gentle smile, "sister Yao, don't worry, I'll get what I want You too. Don't think about anything. Don't worry about what I said just now. Go back and have a rest early."
"...... Well, then I'll go. You can drink some hot water to wake up and go to sleep, or my head will ache tomorrow morning
Lu Yao finished and stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.
After driving for a distance, she pulled the car to the side, closed her eyes, covered her chest and panted gently.
She didn't understand. What happened just now?
Hearing other people's sad things, she should be the first comfort, why would panic want to escape? Hearing that his mother committed suicide, she didn't even dare to ask one more question What's more, the name just now really made her feel strange.
She kneaded her head and rubbed her eyebrows in confusion.
I don't know if I was scared by someone pinching my neck that day. In addition, I was tired recently. The whole person was always in a trance.
At this time, in the dark and dead car, the mobile phone next to the screen suddenly lights up, followed by a rapid vibration sound.
Caught off guard, Lu Yao's heart was almost scared out. She raised her head and looked pale and frightened. She was relieved to see that it was the mobile phone. She lifted her hair behind her ears in some confusion. She picked up her mobile phone and pressed it to connect.
