Apartment From Hell

Chapter 87
The time... goes back to ten o'clock this morning.

Xingqi Orphanage, a private orphanage in K City.

Min gently pushed the door open.

This dark and narrow room seemed very dull.

"Aren't you...don't you have something to eat?" Min walked towards the center of the room, looking at a man in a wheelchair with his back to her.

The person in the wheelchair looked like a young woman from the back, with long hair that only reached her shoulders.She didn't answer Min's words, but looked seriously at a painting hanging on the wall.

"Really... It's rare for me to come back once on New Year's Eve. You don't have to do this, do you?"

Min reached for the light switch on the wall and turned it on... and the room was brightly lit.The person in the wheelchair turned around slowly.

It was a young girl of around about [-] with an extremely beautiful appearance.The girl was wearing a white gauze dress that looked like a doll, and she looked at Min in front of her with empty eyes.

"Don't be like this..." Min sighed, and said, "I know you don't want to see me. Forget it... Actually, I also know that even at this time of the new year, you won't want to see me."

A beautiful girl in a wheelchair raised her hand slightly.The sleeves of the clothes were so long that they almost covered half of the hands, it could be seen that the clothes were worn without considering the physical condition at all.In fact, this is also a dress designed by the girl herself.

"I have given the drawing to the dean. You go out immediately and turn off the light."

The girl just said such a sentence lightly.

There was no hatred, no joy in her eyes, just pure emptiness.That was what made Min even more unbearable.However, she had to face it.

She and this girl cannot be severed.

After leaving, she closed the door and went back to the outside room.On the sofa there, sitting a middle-aged man wearing glasses, about 50 or [-] years old.The man's hair has turned slightly white, and his face is very kind and kind.

"Principal..." Min sat down and said, "Shen Yu...it seems that she doesn't want me to meet her. I hope you can help her more. I'm afraid her life will become more and more difficult in the future. "

"That's not a problem. In fact, her paintings are very good, but... without funds and sponsors, it is difficult to open a large-scale solo exhibition. She has really worked hard recently..." The middle-aged man added here He added: "Also, although she seems unwilling to accept you, she will occasionally ask about your situation. Where are you working now?"

"I, my current job is okay, and my income is considered stable. Dean, I'd better go back tonight. Since Shen Yu doesn't want to see me, it doesn't make much sense for me to stay here."

"Okay then, since that's the case, I won't keep you anymore... This is the painting that Shen Yu asked me to give you..." The head of the orphanage handed over a tightly wrapped square package.

Then, Min left here.This... the orphanage where she lived for more than 20 years.As an orphan myself, life and employment are very difficult.Because she is a disabled person, Shen Yu still lives in an orphanage. She can't live with the money she can earn just by relying on her paintings.As the dean said, without the support of sponsors, Shen Yu would have no way to hold a large-scale art exhibition and increase its popularity.

And I... entered this apartment again.

That day, she really wanted to die.Although he hesitated, although he also thought of Shen Yu... But if he really died, would Shen Yu feel pain?
No way?
Because she is so indifferent to herself, she doesn't even see her existence at all.I don't even have the heart to hate myself.

In Shen Yu's heart, there is no self at all.

So, where are you going at this time today?Go back to the apartment?No, I don't want to go there at all.

At the same time, Xingchen also returned home.

In the huge and luxurious living room, there are brand-name imported furniture everywhere. It is not inconvenient for my brother to live alone, and he manages his daily life by himself.

"Xing Chen..." Xing Yan, dressed in ordinary home clothes, said to his younger brother: "Are you really not planning to move back? I know, you have always hated me about your eyes...but..."

"Stop talking, brother." Xingchen waved his hand and said, "Today is New Year's Eve, let's talk about something happy. Where are your parents? Have you sent a postcard?"

"I guess it will be delivered by courier on the first and second day of the new year. I have already called my parents overseas, but... my father's voice doesn't sound very good..."

"what happened?"

"Although the expression is a bit cryptic, it seems that... the mother's health is not very good."

"What? Why is it bad?"

"I wanted to ask my father about the situation in detail, but my father said that my mother still needs to be checked for a while, and he wanted me to rest assured that the medical conditions in the United States are very good, and there will be no problems. But it is obvious that my father is actually worried. I asked him if he wanted me to visit the United States, but my father flatly refused, saying that he didn’t need it.”

"So you didn't come back?" Xing Chen felt a little melancholy when he heard this.

Although Xing Chen has always had a resentful attitude towards her mother, but she is her biological mother after all, and she is not in good health, so she naturally feels uncomfortable.

"It's fine if it's not a serious illness..."

"Father really didn't make it very clear... Xingchen, why don't you move back to live? It's more convenient for us two brothers to live together. I'm not used to living in such a big house alone."

This villa indeed covers a rather large area, and there are astonishingly many rooms. The stars even got lost in it before.In such a big house, only my brother lived alone, so it was really lonely.

But the question is... Can I come back to live?

"I'm sorry, brother..." Xingchen shook his head and said, "I'm very satisfied with where I'm currently living, and I don't want to come back for now. Brother, don't think too much..."

"Okay, forget it, it's fine if you come. Let's stay here for one night tonight, and leave again on the first day of the new year tomorrow."

The relatives of the Bian family are all abroad, so there will be no relatives going around during the New Year.

"Brother, did you buy fireworks?"

"That... I don't think it's necessary, so I didn't buy it. Anyway, the family is together, just have a reunion dinner. I went out to buy vegetables early this morning, and I will go to the kitchen to prepare later..."

"Are you alone? Let me help..."

"Alright. Well, then you go to the refrigerator first and take out a chicken inside..."'

The kitchen of this family is also huge. There are more than a dozen stoves at a glance, and there are refrigerators one after another.Xingchen was in the kitchen, helping to chop some vegetables and meat. When he watched his brother cooking a pot of soup, he said, "Brother, don't you think about getting married early? You live alone and don't hire a helper. Although your cooking The technology is not bad, but you usually have so many jobs to be busy, it would be better to have a good wife?"

"I don't plan to get married in a short time, but Xingchen, do you have any girls you like?"

"Who...who would fall in love with my 'one eye'..."

The elder brother who was stirring the soup stopped the movement of his hands.He was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Xingchen, about your eyes, I..."

"Stop talking." Xing Chen shook his head and said, "That's not brother's fault."

Yes, it's not my brother's fault.Xingchen is also very aware of this, but... when he said this, he felt extremely hypocritical.In the balance of inner hatred, the mother is actually more inclined to the elder brother than the elder brother.Even knowing that this kind of thinking is negative and bad, there is no way to stop yourself from thinking about it.

As night fell, all the food was ready.In the restaurant, the two brothers sat facing each other.A table of delicacies is the result of their hard work.

Xingchen suddenly felt sad...

Could this be the last meal with my brother?In a few days, it will be time to carry out the instructions in blood...

"Brother..." After starting to move the chopsticks, Xing Chen's eyes were obviously a little moist: "From now on, you will take care of Mom and Dad..."

"Well, of course... But why do you say that? Don't you take care of your parents?"

"Me? How can I be as capable as you, brother... I really, really envy you, brother... being so liked by mother..."

Xing Yan picked up a piece of braised pork, gave it to Xing Chen, and said, "What are you talking about, you're drunk before drinking? Why are you envious of me? Let's eat vegetables."

This meal is actually quite warm.

After ten o'clock in the evening, neither of them had any intention of watching the Spring Festival Gala. Xing Yan wanted to go to the study to do some work. After the Chinese New Year, he was still very busy. The school would hold several academic seminars, and Xing Chen was not in the mood.I originally planned to go back to the apartment, but after thinking about it, I'd better stay here for one night.

After parting with my brother, I walked along the long corridor to the second floor, and followed my memory to my room.

This huge and empty villa looks very lonely at this moment, and it is so late...

Xingchen couldn't help but feel a little shivering.

"Really...it's not following the instructions in blood, what are you afraid of..."

At this time... Behind the stars, at the corner of a corridor, a dragging bloodstain appeared!
That bloodstain continued to stretch on the ground, following the stars behind it!

Moreover, the outline of the bloodstain is clearly... a person crawling on the ground!

At the moment, Min is staying in her own room in the apartment.It took her a lot of courage to decide to meet Shen Yu today.

However, the facts proved that Shen Yu, facing herself after all, was unable to untie that knot.

It's also understandable, after all, I have that kind of relationship with her...

At this moment, she was lying on the bed alone. Although she knew that many residents had gone to Hua Liancheng's house for the New Year's Eve dinner, she had no appetite at all.

If it wasn't with Shen Yu, she wouldn't be able to eat anything.

She picked up the painting package on the table, and tore apart the outer package little by little. She wanted to see what kind of painting Shen Yu gave herself...
