Chapter 30 The Third Arrow
Chapter 30 The Third Arrow
Of course Cupid would not listen to such a request, and he tore the woman apart with the onlookers.The woman collapsed and sat on the ground, crying loudly.
Xia Yu was limp all over, obviously someone who had been bullied, but she couldn't see any grievance or anger, she let Cupid pull him up from the ground with a sullen face, and then hugged him tightly into his arms.
The security guard of the school rushed over after hearing the news, and was taken aback when he saw the woman on the ground: "Zhang, Professor Zhang...".The woman became more emotional when she heard this, and cried, "I'm not a professor, I just want my daughter back, who among you can understand? Have you ever been a mother? Do you have children of your own?"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly calmed down, and silently took out a pen from his handbag, his body suddenly bounced off the ground, and slammed into Xia Yu who was not far away.
Because he didn't know the relationship between the woman and Xia Yu, Cupid was distracted by the woman while coaxing Xia Yu, analyzing the situation from her intermittent words.Seeing her move, Cupid didn't have time to call for help, and turned around while holding Xia Yu, and the not-so-sharp ballpoint pen stabbed him in the back.
The more people watched, some students held Xia Yu and Cupid in a circle hand in hand to prevent the women from attacking suddenly; the women were controlled by the security guards, after all, they were professors, and the young security guards didn't dare to pull them. Kankan supported her and advised her to calm down.
Someone in the crowd called the police, and sirens could be heard from far and near.The woman fell to the ground collapsed, and finally stopped talking; Xia Yu was also pale, almost paralyzed in Cupid's arms, with cold sweat oozing layer after layer on her back, shaking like falling into water.
Not long after arriving at the police station, the leaders of the university and the woman's husband hurried over.Since the person involved did not cooperate with the record, Cupid could only learn some information from other people.
The woman is Zhou Mengzhen's mother. Zhou Mengzhen has a close relationship with Xia Yu. Xia Yu indirectly caused Zhou Mengzhen's death, so Zhou's mother has always hated him.
This time, I saw Xia Yu in the university where I was teaching. On the anniversary of my daughter's death, the indirect murderer made new friends and talked and laughed happily.
Zhou Gang found the medical certificate from his mobile phone, "Comrade policeman, take a look. When my daughter just had an accident, my wife was diagnosed with severe anxiety and moderate mania. She rested at home for more than a year, and only recently returned to school. Teaching. If it wasn't for today's unlucky chance to meet Xiao Xia, she wouldn't hit anyone casually."
The school representative was also afraid of causing trouble: "That's right, I guarantee that Professor Zhang has always had a good reputation among students, and he has been doing his best in the past few months since he was reinstated... We don't think the other child has any plans to pursue it, after all He's a professor in a university, so it's not easy to leave a record..."
The little policeman read the materials, and only smiled at them: "It still depends on the attitudes of the two parties involved."
After a while, a door in the corridor opened, and Xia Yu came out with a tired face.He approached and pulled Cupid's shirt, "Let's go back."
"Are you okay?" Cupid asked concerned.Xia Yu didn't answer, but walked towards the exit with a sullen head.
It was already dark, and the two missed the high-speed train home, so they needed to find a hotel to stay for another night.
"Xiao Xia," Zhou Gang called to stop him outside the police station, "Xiao Xia, uncle wants to apologize to you, it is your aunt who is ignorant and wronged you today..."
Xia Yu was silent, shaking his head slowly.
"You shouldn't have to bear this, it's not your fault..." Zhou Gang put his hands on his shoulders, "I saw your brother two days ago, and he said that you cut off the connection with your family, and you won't go to school. I’m going to live in another city... I’m actually worried about you, but your phone has been disconnected.”
Xia Yu raised her head and asked hoarsely, "Don't you blame me?"
"Why are you to blame?" Zhou Gang smiled wryly, "Things are unpredictable, and Meng Zhen didn't know that something like that would happen, right? If you really want to be held accountable, it's also the responsibility of the dead driver, and you didn't hit them with your car. "
"Her mother just couldn't accept it, so she vented her anger on you. I was also at fault for this matter. I heard her say you were wrong before, and I only thought she was venting. She is like that. It is good to have an outlet to vent. So I let her grudge against you get deeper and deeper, and I just beat you today."
Zhou Gang took a step back and bowed deeply to Xia Yu and Cupid, "Uncle, I beg you, don't make this a big deal. I'm afraid her mother won't think about it and will keep entangled in this matter.", "I will solve her problem in the future , let her insist on seeing a psychiatrist, it won’t be a burden to your life.”
Seeing Zhou Gang like this, Xia Yu's expression finally eased. He shook his head and said that he was fine. He also signed a receipt at the police station just now, and said that he would not file a complaint or pursue it.
"You are also a poor child..." Zhou Gang had tears in his eyes, and Xia Yu noticed that Uncle Zhou's hair had already turned gray, and his eyes were no longer majestic, but full of sadness.
He continued: "We're poor parents too, but we're all right, you know?"
Cupid helped Xia Yu to leave, and finally returned to the hotel where he stayed before, and stayed in the room where he lived before.
After entering the house, Cupid wrapped Xia Yu in the quilt, boiled a pot of hot water, went into the bathroom, ironed a towel, and wiped Xia Yu's face.
Xia Yu seemed to have lost her soul, and let him play with it, the wound on the forehead was covered with a layer of light yellow solidification, just gently sweeping the towel, Xia Yu's brows tightened.
madman!Crazy woman!Cupid blamed Zhou's mother in his heart, and then began to blame himself. If he had reacted earlier, Xia Yu would not have suffered so many injuries.
He let Xia Yu lean against the head of the bed, took the disinfectant pads and ointment he bought from the front desk just now, and applied them carefully.
"Huh-huh--" Cupid moved closer to Xia Yu's forehead, blew carefully, and asked him again: "Where does it still hurt, where is your body injured?"
Xia Yu stared blankly at Cupid for a while, and said, "No."
"It's nothing, she hit you so many times, how could there be only this wound on your face?" Cupid stuffed the ice pack from the room service into Xia Yu's hands, "I applied it myself, it's all swollen. "
Since Xia Yu doesn't say anything, Cupid plans to check it himself.He tore off Xia Yu's quilt, lifted up his short sleeves, and looked at the dim light.
Xia Yu is still very thin, with a few ribs protruding thinly, and there are large bruises from the chest to the lower abdomen, some of which have begun to turn purple.Cupid was so angry that his teeth chattered, and he asked, "Is this called?!"
"Why is she so vicious, beating people like this?!" Cupid squeezed some ointment on his fingertips, and gently applied it to the bruises, "I've been beaten like this, why don't you hold her accountable, elder Can you hit anyone casually?"
Xia Yu rubbed between her brows and said, "I owe her."
"But that uncle clearly said you were right!"
"You do not understand……"
"Then can you tell me the story?" Cupid said, "I don't understand, but I care about you. When you were pushed to the ground and beaten, I feel worried when I think about it. It's because I didn't protect you well."
As Cupid spoke, his eyes began to get wet again, which made Xia Yu flustered.
"Brother Xia Yu, tell me, aren't we friends? You know about my past, and I also want to know about your past. I promise not to tell anyone, just tell me, okay?" Qiu Bit pleaded.
Xia Yu still refused to speak, and stopped Cupid's hand to prevent him from taking the medicine.
"Then I'll ask you a question, and you can answer it, okay?" Cupid planned to communicate with him in another way, "You think you killed Zhou Mengzhen, don't you?"
Xia Yu looked at Cupid, and Cupid didn't avoid his eyes, looking at him seriously, with tears hanging on his eyelashes.
Xia Yu nodded.
"Okay. But Zhou Mengzhen's father said that you were not at fault, it was the driver who was at fault, so when Zhou Mengzhen's accident happened, you were not there, right?"
Xia Yu finally couldn't bear Cupid's sincere eyes, and lowered his head: "...um."
"Then why do you think you hurt her? She had a car accident on the way to meet you, didn't she?"
"Yes."
The guess was indeed correct, and Cupid couldn't help but shake Xia Yu's hand, it was so cool.He continued to ask: "Are you and Zhou Mengzhen boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"No..." Xia Yu was dejected, "Mengzhen and I are good friends, and there is another friend named Meng Luo. He and Mengzhen are planning to get married, and they made an appointment to take their wedding photos...they had an accident on the road that day. , gone together."
At this moment, Cupid felt that someone was tearing his heart apart, how could this be, how could Xia Yu experience such a thing?
Combined with the information I heard today, the originally chaotic puzzle gradually became complete.Xia Yu blamed herself deeply for the death of her good friend, gave up her bright future and her family and old friends, and hid in another city to live a decadent life.
He doesn't take pictures anymore, he doesn't read books anymore, he wastes his life as a punishment for the death of his good friend, he doesn't confide his sincerity to anyone anymore, he doesn't care about anything...
Why are you so stupid?
Cupid let the tears fall, hugged Xia Yu tightly, like petting a small animal, stroking his back over and over again, and whispering in his ear.
"It's not your fault, you're just too kind."
"It's because she's too bad, she's too selfish, she has no one to blame, so she vents all her anger on you."
"You are not wrong, it is fate, it is God, it is God! You will get better, you will definitely get better, this is what God owes you, you must come out..."
Hearing this, Xia Yu softened and smiled.He rubbed Cupid's natural curls, "How can it be so easy?"
"I will accompany you." Cupid bowed his back and pressed his forehead against Xia Yu, "Brother Xia Yu, I will accompany you, no matter how long it takes."
"Brother Xia Yu, I don't want to see you alone. My heart hurts to death. I've never felt so uncomfortable before." Cupid pleaded again. He knew kindness like Xia Yu, and it was always difficult to refuse him.
"Brother Xia Yu, just let me stay with you, okay?"
Xia Yu moved her head away, with a puzzled expression on her face: "You...why?"
"Because I like you." Cupid's voice trembled, this is definitely not the best time to confess, in fact, this timing is terrible.
But if he doesn't say it now, when will he wait until he can say such things to Xia Yu? In what capacity should he care for him, and in what capacity should he use to protect him?
"I like you, Brother Xia Yu. I like you very much." Once you open your mouth about some things, there is no room for maneuver, Cupid does not intend to turn back, he likes Xia Yu, he wants to get Xia Yu's love.
"You don't have to answer me, and I don't expect you to accept me, as long as you don't push me away." Cupid said, "I'm afraid you will push me away, but it doesn't matter if you push me away now, you push me away." If you leave me, I will follow you again, I will pester you, I want you to be well."
When hearing these words, Xia Yu's eyes lost focus, and she didn't know how to face it.After Cupid finished speaking, he quietly observed him for a while, then shook his head, "Brother Xia Yu?"
Xia Yu suddenly remembered something, raised his arms, caressed Cupid's back, and asked him, "Did you also get hurt on your back?"
He was still thinking about the stab wound by the ballpoint pen that Cupid blocked for him just now. Fortunately, Zhou's mother had already taken off her strength at that time, and the cap of the pen was not sharp, causing only a small area of bruises.Cupid did a simple treatment when he was in the police station, and now he hardly feels any pain.
But Xia Yu's concern still made his heart soften into a puddle.
"Brother Xia Yu, my baby~" Cupid finally let out a relaxed smile, he took Xia Yu's hand and pressed it against his cheek, "I'm crying in pain."
Xia Yu moved her thumb, caressing the slightly wet corners of his eyes.
Now there is only heartache left. After getting to know Xia Yu, Cupid's heart seems to be broken, and he has experienced throbbing, joy, irritability, throbbing pain for no reason...
Thinking about it now, it's probably because I like summer taro.I like it so much, I like it so much, so my heart is like an ignorant but honest mirror, the happiness and sadness of the person I like is reflected in his heart, and he follows the empathy.
Cupid opened his mouth and called him: "Baby Xiayu..."
Xia Yu was stunned, feeling that she had heard it wrong, "What did you call me just now..."
Before he finished speaking, the rest of the words were stuffed into his mouth, sobbing and muttering, all rolled up by his reckless tongue and swallowed into his stomach.
