C86 (1/2)

Zhang Zijun patiently listened to He Li's sleep talk. He leaned close to He Li's ear and said softly, ”Auntie He Li, don't worry. I will never leave you, for my entire life.”

After saying that, he quietly put on his clothes and walked out of the room. The bright and beautiful morning sunlight shone in from outside the window, bathing everything in a warm glow and making it seem as if everything was filled with hope.

He opened the door and went out.

It had been a long time since he had woken up so early. Today, he had an opportunity to wake up so early, so he naturally didn't want to miss such good weather. He planned to train in the morning.

When they arrived outside, they saw that everything in the city was still in a deep sleep. There were only two security guards in the small district, walking side by side.

When he looked up, he saw that the leaves had already fallen off. It was autumn.

The northeast was not like the south. The autumn in the south might still be summer, but the autumn in the northeast was a symbol of withering and withering.

Zhang Zijun suddenly looked back, and all the leaves on the willow tree above dropped onto his head and shoulders.

A gust of cold wind came along with it, taking away all the gloom and displeasure of the year. He looked at the world outside the district and planned to walk forward along the street where there were fewer people.

He didn't know where he was going, but he kept walking and didn't even look back.

He put his hands in his pockets, suddenly feeling for the female cigarettes and the lighter that he got from He Li. Taking out a cigarette from his mouth, he lit it up and took a deep breath, then started to move forward.

As Zhang Zijun had been following behind He Li all day, besides He Li and He Lu, the other two sisters, the other girls that were raised and lived well like Sun Liman and Xie Xiaodan. As time passed, he no longer understood the appearances of the people living in the lower classes.

While the entire city was still in a deep sleep, there were already quite a few people running about for a living.

These people were usually very old, and of course, there were a few around his age. However, when one looked at their entire bodies, they were in a sorry state, with not a single bit of good looks.

Zhang Zijun kept walking, the sun had already risen higher and higher, and there were more and more people on the street. Unknowingly, he had arrived at the only railway station in the city.

Standing in front of the train station, he instantly recalled the night Sun Liman left that day. He suddenly realized that even though Sun Liman had walked for so long, he had never contacted her once, and she didn't even know where she had gone to, nor did she know what she had done now.

Although his heart had long been given to Aunt He Li, but no matter what, Sun Liman was still her lover, her bedmate. Perhaps, at that time, he did not feel that anything was amiss, but now, in this lonely morning, his heart could not help but think, was she being too heartless to Sun Liman?

Sun Liman treated him with infatuation, with sincerity that could be seen from the sun and moon, yet he herself treated her with absolutely no feelings.

Thinking about it carefully, she was currently wandering in a remote place. There was a home that she could not return to, and she was traveling alone. The little girl's family wasn't that old either, so he really didn't know what she felt out there.

With that in mind, Zhang Zijun took out his phone and found Sun Liman's number in the contact list. Without thinking, he quickly dialed it.

In his mind, he thought about how he could express his thoughts to Sun Liman later. He even thought that if she was not well outside, then he would go find her. As long as she was better off, it wouldn't matter if he wasn't by Aunt He Li's side.
