Su Xun chased the man, eagerly passing through the crowd, pursuing with all his strength.
The dense crowd was filled with all kinds of voices and music.
So noisy, so loud, so noisy.
However, Su Xun seemed to be unable to hear any of this at all, nor could he see those irrelevant people. All he could see was the figure that was gradually receding.
She finally caught up with the man beside the huge fountain.
Su Xun held his hand expectantly, and called him in surprise and nervousness: "Brother Fu!"
The man turned around at her call.
It's an unfamiliar face.
The surprise on his face suddenly disappeared, and Su Xun's expression gradually stiffened and solidified.
It's not Brother Fu...it's not him.
She was enveloped in great despair and slowly loosened her fingers.
Su Xun's cry-like voice escaped from his lips, "Yes...I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person."
The man just looked at her coldly, turned around and left without saying a word.
His figure quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Su Xun stood in the sun in despair, his eyes seemed to have lost focus.
Behind me was the sound of water from the fountain, which was loud and noisy.
She untied the red rope of Ping An Fu from her neck, held Ping An Fu, and squatted on the ground almost precariously.
The word "Fu" on the Ping An blessing was stained with blood the size of a fingernail. Over time, it had dried up and lost its color.
This was after she graduated from elementary school, Brother Fu took her to Lingyuan Temple to pray for peace and blessings.
At that time, their family members all died in the line of duty, and the two of them became orphans.
During that period of time, she and Brother Fu depended on each other.
She was frail and sick at that time, and he basically took care of her. He was obviously just a high school student at that time.
The most serious case was that she almost died from high fever and pneumonia, and the hospital issued a critical illness notice.
In desperation, he, who had always scorned feudal superstition, prayed devoutly to God and Buddha for her blessing and safety.
And she miraculously recovered.
After that, her health gradually improved and she never got sick again.
Su Xun squeezed Ping An Fu tightly with her fingers, and many memories came flooding back——
"Xunxun, keep running and exercising every morning, and you won't need to go to the hospital often in the future."
"But running is so tiring. I don't want to run anymore."
"Xunxun, be good. I'll run with you and be obedient."
"Brother Fu, I really can't run anymore..."
"Hold on, there are still two more laps."
"I don't care, I won't run, otherwise you carry me, you carry me once, and I will finish the rest..."
"good."
She happily jumped onto the boy's thin back and put her arms around the boy's neck.
The boy carried her on his back and said as he walked: "Xunxun, let's go to Disney together this winter vacation."
"But Disney is so expensive, and you paid me the dance class tuition before, so we have no money at all."
She muttered quietly.
"I have money."
"Where did you get the money?"
The young man smiled: "The money I saved from delivering food is enough for the two of us to go together. Haven't you always wanted to go to Disneyland?"
"Brother Fu, I don't want to go to Disney anymore. You are already in your senior year of high school. I'd better save the money for you to go to college."
"I don't plan to go to college. I'm not good at studying anyway. I will definitely not be able to pass the college entrance examination. Xunxun's grades are so good. When I graduate from high school, I will work part-time to help you save for college tuition."
"I don't want it, Brother Fu, I don't want to dance anymore. Don't go out to deliver food at night. When you grow up and make a lot of money, you can pay me for dance classes, buy nice clothes, and buy delicious snacks.
Go to many fun places, but you can’t go to college, otherwise I won’t go to college either!”
The young man laughed softly, "It doesn't matter, as long as Xunxun is happy, who made Xunxun the little princess of our family? We Xunxun will be great dancers in the future."
…
Su Xun squeezed Ping Anfu tightly and stared blankly at the dried blood.
But they still didn’t go to Disneyland in the end.
That late winter night, in the cold lake, was the last time she heard his voice.
Her brother Fu will never come back again.
"Su Xun!"
Li Shan and Zhang Qinyue chased her out angrily, and finally found her at the fountain pool, "So you ran here!"
Seeing that she turned a blind eye to them and only stared blankly at the Ping An Fu in her hand, the resentment accumulated in Li Shan's heart suddenly burst out.
She snatched away the blessing of peace, with a malicious light in her eyes.
"Su Xun, if you apologize to Xiaoman, I will return it to you."
