Chapter 946 (1/2)
Jiang Rumo stood there, wondering how long she had stood. In the silence, she heard her mobile phone ring.
At first, the sound was far away, like it came from the horizon, gradually getting closer and closer.
Jiang Rumo blinked, his drifting thoughts gradually became clear, lowered his head and took out his mobile phone.
The words ”Jiang ruting” flickered persistently on the screen.
She frowned slightly, crossed the screen with her fingers, clicked on, and turned away.
”Hey, what's up?” Jiang Rumo, who had been standing at the tuyere for a long time, even his voice was cool at the moment.
”Sister, where are you? Are you still in Xiangcheng?” Jiang ruting's voice sounded very low, and there was still the sound of running water in the background, like hiding in the bathroom and calling her with the tap on.
Jiang Rumo said coldly, ”it has nothing to do with you. What are you doing calling me at this time?”
”I...” Jiang ruting hesitated and said, ”sister, I'm afraid...”
There was a trace of timidity in her voice. Perhaps it was because there was silence around late at night that her timidity was infinitely amplified in Jiang Rumo's ears, or maybe Shaoli's appearance reminded Jiang Rumo of those memories buried in the bottom of her heart.
Jiang Rumo listened to his sister's words and remembered in a trance that when they were young, Jiang ruting was the same. He snuggled up behind her and held her clothes tightly with his small hands. Nuo Nuo's voice was timid and quietly said to her, ”sister, I'm afraid...”
At this moment, the distant voice suddenly coincided with the voice from the receiver, which made Jiang Rumo's heart softened by the wind.
She sighed, and the coldness in her voice disappeared: ”is something wrong with you? They doubt you?”
Jiang ruting pursed his lips, pressed his voice very low, but said to the mobile phone like pouring all his strength: ”they never believed me! And Zhang Kuang, sister, do you know how they treat Zhang Kuang?”
Thinking of the end of his madness, Jiang ruting still shivers all over.
It's terrible. They didn't hesitate when they were so crazy.
If that's the way Mo Jue treats the enemy
Jiang Rumo's eyebrows sank, raised his voice and said, ”that's just what they're trying to show you. Don't mess up.”
”I know, I am...” Jiang ruting stuttered. She crouched down under the sink and curled up. She covered the receiver with one hand. The cold ceramic tiles kept absorbing the temperature of her skin, making her feel colder and more afraid. ”They are too powerful. Whether it's means or brain, I'm not their opponent, sister, I......”
”If you can't do it, you have to do it.” listening to her gradually unstable mood, Jiang Rumo simply interrupted her and said in a deep voice, ”ruting, I gave you a choice. You chose this road. Now that you have reached this step, you have to keep going, otherwise...”
Jiang ruting's heart sank gradually, and his hand holding the mobile phone began to tremble.
It's too cold. Whether it's the tiles behind her or Jiang Rumo's words, it makes her feel too cold.
However, as Jiang Rumo said, she chose this road
She clenched her lips and hugged her knees, trying hard to resist the acidity in her throat and the cry that wanted to rush out of her throat.
Jiang Rumo paused and sighed again: ”ruting, now our sisters' lives are in your hands...”
As soon as Jiang ruting was stiff, his face suddenly turned pale, and the tears in his eyes gradually subsided.
Jiang Rumo's last words automatically hovered in her mind and sounded in her ears again and again.
