C3 Mysterious boy
In fact, when Tang Lin went to the hospital with a fever, Liu Ruyan's mother had told him to leave. The current him was not worthy of Liu Ruyan. If the two of them were to be together, he could only be a burden.
After that, Tang Lin began to pretend that he was feverish and had burnt his brain. He purposely made mistakes in every exam, and the reason for that, besides lowering the feeling of his own existence, was to make Liu Ruyan give up on him.
was powerless to change it. She could only swallow her tears and endure it silently.
...
Before the last lesson ended, Liu Ruyan made a phone call and rushed out of the classroom.
During school hours, Liu Ruyan's empty seat made her heart full of bitterness.
Today was his 18th birthday, but today he had already left as if he was made of smoke.
There were always many people who accompanied him on his previous birthday. Now that his father was in prison and he didn't have the money to celebrate, it was the loneliest and most miserable birthday he had lived in all these years.
Tang Lin carried his schoolbag and left the school.
He had to change the bus five times when he got home, and the last bus was less crowded. Tang Lin sat on his seat and looked at the photo on his phone. It was taken ten years ago by the sea and he was wearing a black and white short-sleeved T-shirt.
Dad...
Looking at the man holding his hand in the photo, Tang Lin felt a bit choked up, but he was able to forcefully push back the tears in his eyes.
Dad, don't worry, I will take good care of mom … This family still has me!
Tang Lin stared at the photo, his eyes moist. Suddenly, his expression turned to one of surprise.
In the photo, his image seemed to have become transparent. The black color on his clothes seemed to be fading, and the scenery of the waves on the beach behind him seemed to be appearing.
Tang Lin rubbed his eyes in disbelief before looking at the photo again, only to find that everything was normal.
"My eyes are playing tricks on me. It seems like I haven't rested much recently. Sigh …"
...
Baiyun Village was a rather poor village in the city, where Tang Lin's current home was.
One room, one room, for a monthly rent of 150 yuan, the more expensive house was simply untenable due to his family's current financial situation.
After trying to bargain with an aunt who sold vegetables in the market, finally getting a 50% discount, Tang Lin was a little happy.
After all, his family was very poor, and the pressure of a hundred million yuan was simply too much.
Tang Lin had only recently learned how to cook so that Mom, who had been busy from morning to night, would be able to eat after returning home. He didn't have to work hard anymore, since Mom's health was not good and he was always sick. When he wasn't in school, he would go to work and make up for his family.
Now, as he slept every night, he always thought that if only he could have a job with more money and faster work.
But he knew it was impossible.
Unknowingly, Tang Lin had already walked to his doorstep, and opened the iron door that had a large amount of paint on it. After entering the room, Tang Lin turned on the light and locked the door.
This room was severely lacking in sight. Even in broad daylight, one still needed to turn on the lights. This was because the buildings here were built especially tightly, giving off a kind of oppressive feeling.
Although the room was one bedroom and one living room, the bedroom could only fit one bed, and the living room was only twice the size of the bedroom. In the middle of the room, separated from the rest by a curtain, was a battered bed. The furniture in the room, whether it's chairs, tables, refrigerators, or computers, is second-hand.
After returning home, Tang Lin placed his schoolbag on the table, and took the food to the kitchen.
However, before he could take two steps, he stopped again. He reached for his phone and walked to the computer. He planned to put all the photos he had of his father on the computer to prevent himself from overthinking it.
After putting all the photos into the computer, Tang Lin stood up and walked towards the kitchen. At this time, a voice suddenly sounded out from behind him.
"Tang Lin, you're finally back."
Hearing this, Tang Lin was shocked.
Then, he subconsciously thought that the Mom had returned, but that person's voice carried a hint of childishness, not the Mom.
Was it because he forgot to lock the door that he was able to enter? No, he had locked the door!
Tang Lin would never believe that that person was here to rob him, because his family was so poor that even thieves would not come to visit.
Who could it be?
Curious, Tang Lin turned around.
When he saw it, he was so scared that his whole body turned cold and goosebumps rose all over his body in an instant.
In front of him stood a Little boy wearing a black and white short-sleeved T-shirt.
This boy looked exactly the same as the Tang Lin in the photo on the bus!
He, was actually the same as himself from ten years ago!
