Chapter 26 (1/2)
”Thank you.” She drained the ice water in one breath, pushed the empty glass aside, and took another glass of wine. ”But let's make a quick decision.” She said so, but her head hung lower, as if she had been a bit unstable, no longer as straight back as before, most of the weight of her body was leaning on the bar.
”The third question.” She extremely difficult, shallow pull a lip corner, ask him: ”our game, when can end?”
Different from the first two questions, he did not answer immediately this time. He was silent until she put her hand on her cheek and looked at him with her head. Then he said, ”I don't know.”
She was stunned for a moment, but then she was laughing. She seemed to take his answer as the answer. She shook her hands and took up the third glass of wine. Just as the glass had touched her lips, she was held by him. He held the glass firmly in his fingers, took it away from her hand, and said in a cold voice, ”this wine is mine.”
With that, he looked up and drank the glass of wine.
She looked at him, perhaps because of alcohol, and her eyes were so surprised that she asked him, ”have you flustered?”
He did not answer, slightly frowned, as if some displeasure, cold voice asked her: ”He Yan, are you drinking too much?”
”No, not at all.” She waved her hands to deny, clearly drunk and naive, but she reached out and tried to take a glass of wine, and said vaguely: ”the next question. The next question is, Fu Shenxing, how can you end the game? ”
Looking at her, he couldn't help sneering, ”what's the difference between this and the last question?”
”Eh? Is there no difference? ” She asked him dully. After a long pause, she continued, ”well, let's change another one. How far can you be satisfied with this game?”
He was obviously angry, pursed his lips and looked at her coldly, refusing to answer.
”Oh, not yet? Another question? ” She asked in a low voice. She fell powerlessly on the bar, buried her head deeply and muttered to herself, ”but I just want to know the answer to this question. Fu Shenxing, I really want to know. I can't bear it any longer. I can't hold on to it. The most common thing I say to myself every day is to tell myself not to be crazy. Don't be crazy? ”
She had been burying her head, and he could not see her face, but from her deep nasal murmur, he thought she might be crying. Sure enough, the next second he heard her sniffle, and then listened to her continue to talk to herself.
”I haven't done anything bad. I haven't done anything bad since I was a child. I study hard, be kind to others, live a positive and optimistic life, and believe in the goodness and beauty of the world. Fu Shenxing, what did I do wrong and bear your revenge? Oh, I forgot. I still did something wrong. I stopped the car and tried to save a stranger who had nothing to do with it? As a result, I killed a man. I didn't even kill a chicken before, but I killed a man. Then I had nightmares endlessly, and my eyes were covered with blood. ”
