  The sky was gloomy, as if it would rain in the next moment, and even the air was filled with an unpleasant sense of humidity.

  Taking his eyes away from the book in his hand, Wei Chengze raised his head and glanced out the window. He tilted his head and thought for a while, then finally put down the book and stood up from the sofa.

  Because in the past period of time, in order to complete the work at hand, his work and rest were really chaotic. Two days ago, Yan Li had a tough attitude and asked him not to take any more work during this month.

  So, with the support of Wei Lilu and Yan Li's strict supervision, Wei Chengze began his month-long vacation.

  Although he didn't have to commute to and from get off work at a fixed time every day like other people, the original owner's life was not as leisurely as imagined, perhaps because he had a daughter who was in school to support. At least in Wei Chengze's memory, apart from Wei Lilu's school activities, he really didn't have many rest days - and even those pitiful rest days were mostly because of Wei Lilu's troubles. Wondering where to go to play.

  Therefore, suddenly free, Wei Chengze couldn't even find the original owner's interest in passing the time.

  "Actually..." Looking at the girl with a bright smile in the photo, 5438's tone was a bit complicated, "The original owner is a pretty good father, right?"

  It's a pity that he ended up like that in the end.

  "If he didn't love his daughter so much," after hearing 5438's words, Wei Chengze's face showed a half-smile, "Probably - no, the ending would definitely be different, right?"

  Accepting a person who loves him It is always much easier to leave irrelevant people.

  5438 fell silent when he heard this, not knowing what to say - he couldn't find words to refute Wei Chengze.

  If Wei Lilu was really just a character of little importance to the original owner, and could even be called disgusting, he might not have reacted like that after discovering that the other party's heart had changed. ? Maybe, he wouldn't even notice that the other party was replaced.

  I don't know why, 5438 suddenly felt a little sad.

  When so-called love becomes the cause of tragedy, how can we avoid a desperate ending?

  Watching Wei Chengze close the photo album in his hand, 5438 looked away and looked out the window at the increasingly gloomy sky.

  His eyes were exposed in the middle of the cardboard cover of the photo album, and he paused for a while at a corner of the transparent bag. Wei Chengze put it back to its original position as if he hadn't discovered anything.

  Presumably Wei Lilu sneaked into his room while he was away?

  Sure enough, even if he is blinded by the emotions in his heart, the keen insight that belonged to the former top killer will not diminish at all.

  The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Wei Chengze was obviously very satisfied with the current development.

  Ever since he met Yan Mo that day, he could often see the anxiety and irritability in Wei Lilu's eyes that could not be concealed. He must have caused a lot of trouble for her. Even if there is no real danger to his life, Yan Mo is still a favored male protagonist in this world, so it is inevitable for Wei Lilu to suffer some minor injuries.

  ——Compared to the previous actions that did not cause any substantial harm, this sense of oppression with danger approaching is obviously more disturbing to Wei Lilu.

  But just at this moment, she discovered that the father whom she put first might be the one who really wanted her life - one can imagine how Wei Lilu felt at that time. .

  Wei Chengze took out a light blue folding umbrella from the drawer, closed the drawer and stood up.

  Compared with the long-handled umbrellas that have not changed much from thousands of years ago, it is obvious that this small gadget that can be carried around is more popular with Wei Lilu. But both Wei Chengze and Yan Li prefer the slightly old-fashioned long-handled umbrella.

  At least with a long-handled umbrella, you will never have the tragedy of having more than half of your body still outside after opening it.

  Ever since he bought a folding umbrella in a supermarket and was still soaked when he got home, Yan Li firmly classified folding umbrellas as "only for children".

  Thinking of the stinky expression on Yan Li's face at that time, a smile appeared on Wei Chengze's lips.

  Wei Chengze opened the closet and took out a long-handled umbrella, put on his coat and went out.

  It just so happened that as soon as he found a seat to sit down on the bus, the rain started to fall outside. The fine raindrops hit the transparent glass, leaving traces that gathered diagonally downward, criss-crossed, and then blurred into one piece, making it difficult to distinguish the original track.

  The tiny water droplets condensed together, and finally rolled down due to gravity, gathering into a small puddle in the groove of the window, regardless of each other.

  The scenery outside the window became distorted and distorted due to water stains on the glass, as if it were another world separated by a barrier.

  Looking away from the window, Wei Chengze closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair to regain his composure.

  Perhaps because of the weather outside, the atmosphere in the car was a bit dull. The only sounds that could be heard were the sound of plastic bags and the whispers of some people cursing.

  Just in time for the rush hour after get off work, the car was stuck on the road for a while. By the time Wei Chengze arrived at his destination, the school bell had been ringing for a while. There were many parents holding umbrellas leading their children outside, making it difficult to see the distant scenery.

  Wei Lilu stood in the corridor on the first floor, lowering his head and looking at the mobile phone in his hand. What was displayed on the lighted screen was the number that he was already familiar with.

  His fingertips hovered above the screen for a long time, but Wei Lilu never pressed it down, and finally simply put it back in his pocket.

  Anyway...it's only a few minutes from here to the station, isn't it? Just run over there, it's not a big deal. Then you can show off to Wei Chengze that you have successfully solved a huge problem by relying on your own strength.

  Thinking of this, Wei Lilu twitched the corners of her mouth vigorously, trying to show a smile, but her mind couldn't help but think of the medicinal powder Wei Chengze had hidden in the cover of the album.

  She didn't grow up in this world, and she didn't know how to test the chemical composition of something, but she still knew the oldest method of testing poison with silver. On her tenth birthday, the little girl once received a sterling silver bracelet - it is said that it was specially made by him. It's a pity that after receiving this gift, the little girl never wore it once. She didn't know whether she felt it was too ostentatious or she didn't like this gift in the first place.

  As he watched the powder-stained bracelet turn black little by little, Wei Lilu didn't even know what he was feeling in his heart.

  However, what she found incredible was that after that, she dealt with all the traces surprisingly calmly, put the bag of powder back to its original place, pretended that nothing had happened, and continued to interact with Wei Chengze as usual. —I don't know whether it was to deceive Wei Chengze or to deceive herself.

  But in the end, there is still something different.

  Even though Wei Lilu tried hard to find a reasonable explanation for Wei Chengze in her heart, she was not allowed to question the facts that were clearly in front of her.

  Wei Chengze... wanted to kill her. Just like the five fingers that tightened little by little on her neck that night.

  But even though she knew this very well in her heart, she still preferred to maintain the calm and beauty on the surface, deceiving herself and others and living in the fabricated lies.

  Wei Lilu felt that maybe she was really crazy. Knowing that there was a bottomless abyss ahead, she still moved forward step by step, closing her eyes and silently counting the time until she fell.

  Taking a deep breath to suppress the turbulent emotions in his chest, Wei Lilu tried his best to put a smile on his face.

  The rain outside is getting heavier, and the strands of rain blown into the collar by the wind have a biting chill, making people clearly aware of the fact that winter has come.

  The hands in the pockets did not feel warm. Instead, they were colder than before and a little stiff.

  Maybe in two days, she should wear gloves. But she really didn't like the style of the gloves in the little girl's wardrobe, so she might as well ask Wei Chengze to buy a new pair for her.

  Thinking of this, Wei Lilu twitched the corner of her mouth, raised her feet and prepared to walk out - she originally wanted to wait for the rain to lighten up a little before going out, but it seemed that the rain would only get heavier later, so It would be better for her not to waste her time here.

  However, before she could even walk down the steps, the raindrops blown in by the wind were blocked by someone. At the same time, a light blue folding umbrella was handed to her.

  After staring at the only folding umbrella in the house for a while, Wei Lilu raised his head and looked at Wei Chengze's expressionless face.

  Probably because he was in a hurry when he went out, half of his collar had not been turned out, which looked a little funny against his stern expression.

  The corners of Wei Lilu's mouth turned up involuntarily, but his heart felt inexplicably sour. He stared blankly at Wei Chengze for a long time, then slowly stretched out her hand and took the umbrella from Wei Chengze's hand.

  "Let's go." Seeing Wei Heluo fluttering his umbrella, Wei Chengze turned around and walked out of the school gate.

  Looking at Wei Chengze's back that was moving away step by step, Wei Lilu stood there for a long time before gently responding: "Yes."

  It was this kind of warmth that was revealed inadvertently, bit by bit. It penetrated into the bone marrow, making his unable to let go of his hands tightly grasping nothingness even though he knew his fate.
