“I already have a general idea of who started the ru Ya raised her arer pointed at the heavy and dark sky “This separation does not ain”

Zhang Ya seemed to have already made her decision If she forced herself to stay, she would continue to be spoken about behind her back Actually, Chen Ge knew that it was not easy for Zhang Ya totiripped the rail had turned white, and blood vessels shot out beneath Chen Ge’s eyes He took a deep breath to steady himself “Sometimes, I feel that this world is a very awful place It will always reach out toward the kindest person to torture theood or evil, but do not lose faith in the good people in the world Once there are ood than evil people in the world, the world itself will change into a better place” Zhang Ya reached out to help Chen Ge adjust his hair that was blown disheveled by the wind Her cold finger stopped at Chen Ge’s cheeks “So, in the future, you have to try to becoo back You still need to prepare lunch for your family Do not waste tooYa turned around to look at the school compound that had become her second ho through herYa, Chen Ge looked at her back He raised both of his hands before putting theain He left the rooftop and the school to head to the hospital After buying food for his father, he bought another lunch box by the roadside and returned home to meet Luo Ruoyu When he reached his own residential area, Chen Ge stopped at the door Normally, when his footsteps echoed down the corridor, Luo Ruoyu would run over to open the door for hiirl did not show up

“Nothing will have happened, right?” Chen Ge called Luo Ruoyu’s name out loud He believed that he could hear the sound of suppressed crying co fro the door open, Chen Ge was hit in the face by a horrible s the rules, he dashed into the room The kitchen was filled with puddles of water, and shattered pieces of the glass therround He ran into the kitchen and saw Luo Ruoyu curl up at the corner with her hands covering her ears Before her was a broken therers had been scalded Tears hung on her face

“Who told you to use the stove!” Chen Ge kicked the broken thermos away He had never been thisthe roar from Chen Ge, Luo Ruoyu cried even harder Her red and scalded hands shi+elded her face, and the tears kept on falling Switching off the stove, Chen Ge did not give it another thought as he carried Luo Ruoyu and ran outside as fast as he could
