Shadow Bride

Chapter 4 Unprovoked man

She pushed the crowd away and staggered out of the banquet hall.

Outside the banquet hall, she didn’t know when it started raining, so she rushed into the rain in a muddled manner, unable to discern the direction.

I don’t know how far she ran, but when she came back to her senses, she found herself staying in front of a huge glass curtain wall. Behind the crystal-clear curtain wall is a large camera store. There are a number of valuable cameras on display in the store. The cold and simple mechanical lines carry a unique beauty of modern industry, which makes her sight bewitched. Generally attracted.

The pale and slender hand touched the glass curtain wall lightly.

Across the curtain wall, he unconsciously depicted the shape of the camera on the display rack.

She still remembers that when she was a child, when her grandfather Mu’s family was still in bankruptcy, she used to be a camera. Her mother Mu Yun is a top international photographer. She often held her young in her arms and taught her how to manipulate the lens and how to press the shutter. She still can’t forget the faint scent of her mother at that time, and the touch of her long hair gently brushing her face.

Later, the Mu family went bankrupt, and her mother passed away in an accident. Stepmother Liu Meizhi walked in and wanted to throw away all the photographic equipment at home. She cried to stop, but could do nothing. She watched the servant throw the fixed focus lens and flash of her mother’s once so precious into the trash can, and dumped it into the trash truck along with a pile of foul-smelling leftovers and vegetable leaves. At the age of six, she chased the garbage truck for a long time, and fell heavily on the side of the road. In the end, the garbage truck staff couldn’t look at it. She stopped and looked through a pile of garbage to find a good one. The intact camera was tucked into her arms.

That camera became her most precious thing.

She hid the camera carefully, only secretly took it out of her stepmother and her family, and fumbled to take pictures. Whenever you are sad or wronged, just pick up the camera and press the shutter, as if the dead mother is still by her side, smiling and saying to her: “Baby Xingyu, mother is here.”

This has become her support.

“Mom…” She looked at the cameras behind the huge curtain wall, sobbing in her voice.

If her mother was still alive, would she not be bullied so miserably? The pouring rain fell on her body, her face was pale, she felt dizzy, and her body was hot and cold. When I was out of the hospital earlier today, the inflammation in my body was not complete. At this time, I was exposed to the rain and my condition was even worse.

“Miss, are you okay, miss?” Suddenly, a voice was heard.

She turned her head and saw that the door of this specialty store opened somehow. A male clerk in uniform was standing in front of her, looking at her worriedly: “This lady, it’s raining heavily here, are you buying a camera? Go and see in our shop.”

She was greeted by the clerk into the specialty store, and she was surrounded by carefully crafted cameras. These cameras seem to be very high-end, and the parameters listed on the model, shell material or label are far beyond the one left by her mother.

She discovered that these cameras are all of the same brand-Edge, the best camera brand in the world.

The male clerk was obviously well-trained. He made a cup of hot tea and gave her a large dry towel: “Miss, wipe the water on your body, don’t catch cold. Are you a photographer? Or an amateur? We Edge has different models of cameras tailored specifically for different groups of people. This is the flagship store, with a complete range of models. Let me tell you which one you like.”

She looked around blankly, which one was she fancy?

Seriously, she didn’t want any of them, only the one left by her mother.

Unfortunately, that camera was lost two years ago.

In the past two years, she has never touched a camera. Whenever she is sad, it is Qin Mu who replaces the camera to comfort her. But now Qin Mu, who she trusts and relies on so much, hurt her severely, her heart is cut like a knife, as if sinking toward the bottomless abyss of hell, sinking… I want to catch something.

“Which one is enough for the money?” She asked, taking out all the money in the bag and handing it to the clerk together with the only bank card.

The money is not much, it is 459 yuan less than the cheapest camera in the store, but the clerk smiled and said, “You are so lucky, miss, I will give you a discount with my own internal membership card, which is just enough. Buy one of our entry-level cameras.”

The girl in front of him was desperate, he guessed that she must have encountered something embarrassing. Providing high-quality services to guests is the training guidelines of the Edge Group. In this case, he will do his best to take care of her within his own authority.

Su Xingyu didn’t know his inner thoughts, thanked him, took the camera and walked outside the store.

Her steps were a little unstable, and the rain caused inflammation to raging inside the body again. Her head became more and more dizzy, and she staggered into the rain, tightly protecting the camera with her thin hands, and bending her back to block it. rain.

Faster……

Hurry up…

She has to find the bus stop quickly and go back to the hospital.

The camera in her arms made her feel at ease, as if she had something to protect, letting her renew the courage to face the world. She quickly discerned the direction and ran towards the bus stop across the road. However, before running a few steps, suddenly a black Bentley rushed out of the heavy rain and galloped straight toward her!

She didn’t have time to react, she only felt a pain in her calf, and she was knocked out.

The camera came out of her hand, and the packaging box fell apart in mid-air. Like a slow motion, she watched as the camera shattered to the ground, the lens split, and the lines spread like a cobweb.

It seems that a long time has passed, and it seems that only two or three seconds have passed.

She heard a voice in her ear, a man yelling to her: “Miss, are you okay?! Miss?!”

She turned her head blankly, looked at the man in the black suit, and shook her head subconsciously.

“Camera…” she said.

“When are you still taking care of the camera?!” The man seemed to be a little frustrated, and said loudly in the rain, “Your legs are bleeding! Can you still go? Come, hold me, I will help you to safety!”

Before she could answer, he bent over to help her up and tried to hold her to the side of the road.

She endured the pain, coordinated with the man’s movements, inadvertently tilted her head, and saw that the black Bentley that had knocked her down just now was parked in the heavy rain, with the car door on the side of the road open. Obviously, the man in front of him just got out of the car.

She just glanced at it slightly. She didn’t expect that in such a chaotic situation, the men would notice her small movements, and her voice suddenly sank: “Don’t look, the boss is in a hurry, it is impossible to drive you to the hospital. Miss, just now It’s a red light, and it’s because you crossed the road by yourself that the accident happened. We have done our best to treat you. I will find a car to take you off and give you enough compensation. You’d better be smart, don’t make trouble, car The people here are not something you can afford.”

Of course she knew she couldn’t afford it.

This Bentley was so honorable at first glance that even her father couldn’t afford it. She only tried to provoke it.

The injury on her calf became more and more painful, and the pouring rain poured on her body, making it difficult for her to stand still. At this moment, the rear window of the black Bentley not far away came down, and without warning, she ran into a pair of eyes.

Those are the eyes of a man.

Cold, faint and unfathomable, the demonic eyes that have appeared in countless nightmares of her.

Su Xingyu only felt a “boom” in his head, and those unbearable images from two years ago burst in front of him. It was him… it was him! The man who robbed her of her first night!
