Duan Zhicheng seemed to be crazy and wanted to come over to grab his phone, but Xu Ruoshu stopped him.

"——Please send someone over as soon as possible, thank you." After finishing speaking, Duan Jiaxu hung up the phone and said one word at a time, "He needs to be saved."

"..."

"That person is not necessarily dead, why don't you save him?" The image of his father collapsed in an instant. The muscles on Duan Jiaxu's face tightened, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Why did you run?"

Xu Ruoshu protected Duan Jiaxu behind her and said seriously: "Go and surrender."

"..."

"Admit your mistake and atone." Xu Ruoshu's voice was full of tears when she encountered such a big thing for the first time, "You have done something wrong, and you have to make up for it. This is what you should do, and you should not escape."

"..." Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Duan Zhicheng was still shaking his head. His whole face was red and sweat was dripping from his forehead, "I don't want to go to jail... I don't want to..."

What else did Xu Ruoshu want to say.

Duan Zhicheng seemed to be unconscious and murmured: "Can I pay with my life? If I die, will the head office be fine?"

Then, Duan Jiaxu saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.

His father, in order to escape this sin.

Suddenly he rushed towards the balcony, then jumped from the sixth floor.

…

Duan Zhicheng did not die, but became a vegetative state in bed.

Huge medical expenses, huge compensation, never-ending accusations, all the blame that Duan Zhicheng should bear have all changed direction and weighed heavily on the family.

Duan Jiaxu and Xu Ruoshu endured the entanglement of Jiang Ying's family, including all their relatives.

Young children and gentle and cowardly women became the best targets for bullying. The endless extortion and sharp and vicious curses gradually stopped after they moved.

But it has become a shadow that will never go away.

——"You deserve to die too."

——"I really don't know what you will become when you grow up."

I'm afraid it will be like what everyone said.

Duan Jiaxu will become a person like Duan Zhicheng in the future.

So he never drinks.

Follow the rules in everything you do.

Duan Jiaxu lives with low self-esteem, cautiously, and hard-working. He does not believe in fate, and will never choose to give up on himself and fall into the quagmire due to other people's words.

He believed that, like Xu Ruoshu said,

Just as he thought.

He will live better than anyone else.

…

…

Sang Zhi's cell phone was muted for a long time, mainly because she was in class and because she was afraid of disturbing her roommates. But recently, she was alone in the dormitory and because she never saw other people's messages in time, she turned on the sound.

In the middle of the night, she was woken up by a WeChat call.

Sang Zhi was upset by the noise. For a moment, she thought it was the alarm clock. She touched her phone, hung up the phone in a daze, covered her head and continued to sleep.

Not long after, the phone rang again.

Sang Zhi woke up a little, wrinkled her eyes, and looked at the screen intently.

I found out that the call was from Duan Jiaxu.

Paying attention to the time in the center of the phone, Sang Zhi was immediately shocked. She calmed down her breathing, endured her temper, answered the phone, and turned on the external speaker.

In the small dormitory, Duan Jiaxu's voice suddenly sounded: "Sleep?"

Sang Zhi was going crazy: "It's three o'clock now, brother."

Duan Jiaxu paused and smiled sullenly on the other end: "I'm sorry, I can't sleep."

Sang Zhi just wanted to sleep and said perfunctorily: "What do you want to do?"

"Talk to you."

"I want to sleep!" Sang Zhi resisted the urge to hang up the phone and said, "Go find my brother. I don't think he has slept yet. He usually stays up all night on weekends—"

Duan Jiaxu: "I just want to find you."

"..."

Sang Zhi raised her eyelids. She felt that it was not right for him to harass her at this hour in the middle of the night. She reached out and turned on the camera: "What are you doing?"

It was pitch black over here, and even with the camera turned on, she couldn't see anything.

Seeing this, Duan Jiaxu also opened the other end, revealing his face. The light on his end was not too bright, and the pixels seemed a bit low: "It's okay, you can go to sleep."

"..." Sang Zhi said, "Are you having a nightmare?"

Duan Jiaxu laughed: "How do you know?"

Because he had just woken up, Sang Zhi spoke with a nasal sound, which sounded soft and slow: "At this time, what else can it be besides a nightmare?"

"..."

"Did you dream about a ghost? A ghost pressing down on the bed? Why are you so cowardly?" Sang Zhi said disgustedly, "Lie down now and I'll sing you a lullaby."

Duan Jiaxu hummed softly.

Sang Zhi lay on the pillow and began to sing: "Sleep, sleep, my dear baby..."

"..."

Soon, Sang Zhi stopped and sat up: "I feel like I have to fall asleep first when singing like this."

Duan Jiaxu started to laugh again, with a faint breath.

Sang Zhi was wrapped in quilt and sitting against the wall, holding her mobile phone in her hand, saying whatever came to her mind: "It's just a nightmare, it's all fake. Look at the things around you, look at me on the screen -"

"..."

"Oh." Sang Zhi's mind was a little unclear, "I don't have any light here, I'm too lazy to go down and open it."

Duan Jiaxu responded with a smile: "Yeah."

"It's all fake." Even Sang Zhi felt like he was going to fall asleep while sitting there, talking nonsense, "I am the real one, everything else is fake."

Duan Jiaxu's voice was low and caring: "I know."

The two of them talked for a while, and Sang Zhi lay on the bed again without realizing it, and gradually fell asleep.

The phone in my hand was still on.

The person on the other end listened to her gentle breathing, chuckled, and gradually fell asleep.

Until dawn.

In the new week, Sang Zhi went to work at the company as usual.

As usual, she was picked on by Shi Xiaoyu, and then responded neatly. The number of times was too many, and seeing Shi Xiaoyu who was so angry at her every time, Sang Zhi actually felt like she was enjoying it.

When she got off work, Shi Xiaoyu put on her bag and left on time. Before leaving, she glanced at Sang Zhi coldly and said expressionlessly: "Put the reports in order and then go back."

Sang Zhi nodded: "Oh."

After she left, Sang Zhi also started packing her things and getting ready to get off work.

Noticing the situation on her side, He Pengxing's eyes widened: "Are you leaving? Didn't I ask you to sort out the reports?"

Sang Zhi: "I'll sort it out tomorrow."

Wan Zhe was envious: "Sang Zhi, why are you so awesome?"

He Pengxing: "You will be scolded to death by Sister Xiaoyu if you come over tomorrow."

"I get scolded for not being tidy," Sang Zhi said, "Then I might as well get off work early, take a good rest, recharge my batteries, and wait for her to scold me tomorrow."

"..."

Wan Zhe: "I want to be as old as her, and I can be so cool."

He Pengxing: "If I didn't plan to become a full-time employee, I could be so cool."

Sang Zhi: "..."

It's really more fun to go to work this way.

After leaving the company, Sang Zhi didn't feel tired. She took the subway and went downstairs to Duan Jiaxu's company to wait for him to get off work. She found a sushi restaurant and ordered a set meal at random.

She pulled out a comic and read it.

Not long after, Sang Zhi received a call from Liping.

She picked up.
