My whole family is the protagonist, and I am the only cannon fodder!
Chapter 6 The Missing Scar
There was a burst of noise outside the window. Actually, it wasn't really noisy, but the whole villa was too quiet and peaceful before, so the sound seemed too loud.
Lu opened the window early to look and found that it was Lu Qingwan who came back. There was no one behind her except the driver and the housekeeper who came to greet her.
She was the only one who came back.
Lu closed the window early and continued to read on the blanket beside her. She was not too shocked by this kind of thing. Lu Qingwan was not a person who liked to be in a crowd. Her face was as gentle and beautiful as her name. She didn't like to socialize with outsiders except her family.
Of course, it could just be Lu Zaozao's guess. After all, she knew very little about each person and could only get a rough idea from what they revealed.
The door opened, and a gust of wind from outside was brought in. Lu Zao Zao subconsciously looked up and found that it was Lu Qingwan who came in.
The sunlight outside the glass window reflected on her face, casting a faint halo. Her eyebrows and eyes were light and elegant, like a painting without revealing any scenery. She was so beautiful that Lu Zaozao felt ashamed of herself. Lu Qingwan was still young, and she would definitely become more beautiful when she grew up.
Lu Zaozao is not jealous, on the contrary, she hopes everyone lives a good life.
Although this has little to do with her.
Lu Qingwan was looking for a book on a bookshelf far away from her. After searching for half a day, she probably didn't find it. She slowly approached her and looked at row after row of the bookshelf.
Feeling that it was too troublesome and inefficient to find books this way, Lu Zao Zao lowered his voice and asked, "Do you need me to help you find it?"
The other party ignored her. Three seconds later, he finally raised his head and looked at her, expressing a silent but powerful rejection.
I shouldn’t have asked, Lu Zao Zao thought a little embarrassedly.
In fact, when Lu Zaozao was very young, she had a very good relationship with her only sister. Lu Qingwan was very lively at that time, with bright eyes and white teeth, well-behaved and cute, like a glutinous rice dumpling. She often followed Lu Zaozao, holding her hand, like a follower.
She called her sister every day. At that time, Lu Zaozao often suffered from some serious illnesses. Lu Qingwan always huddled beside her bed sadly, crying while holding her. She imitated TV dramas and patted Lu Zaozao's belly with her little hands to coax her to sleep. Then she fell asleep unknowingly and was taken away by the adults to her room.
However, as I grow older, this close relationship gradually fades, perhaps because of the influence of other people in the family, or perhaps because I myself am indeed not very likable.
In short, day by day, Lu Qingwan began to gradually distance herself from her and became part of the family that stood by and turned a blind eye to her.
As they got closer, Lu Zao Zao heard the sound of Lu Qingwan pulling out a book and flipping the pages. She changed her position and tried to shrink into the corner to reduce her presence, but even so, she still heard the other person exhale and click his tongue impatiently.
Really unable to stay there any longer, Lu stood up early, bent over, and quietly opened the door. He fell flat on his face without paying attention, but luckily it didn't hurt much.
Lu Zaozao fled from the study quickly with the book she had not finished reading in her hand, and ran downstairs. Before stepping out the door, she looked back out of habit.
She noticed that Lu Qingwan had walked out of the study at some point and was standing by the railing on the edge of the second floor, looking down at her in silence and coldness.
Forget it, next time I’ll try not to read in the study. I’ll just find the book I want to read and take it back to my room, Lu Zao Zao thought.
Lu Zaozao still clings to this house like a ghost. Apart from reading, eating and sleeping, she has no other social and entertainment activities. She has few friends and no outstanding interests or hobbies.
Because she was always injured, the Lu family restricted many of her activities, and she also consciously avoided most entertainment, making her already impoverished life even more dull.
When she was young, some people would try to get close to her because she was the daughter of the Lu family, and would symbolically show their friendship and love for her. But they might find that she was not favored, equivalent to being invisible in the Lu family, or because of her unpleasant personality or unremarkable appearance, and then there was no contact.
The closeness and goodwill between adults are often mixed with multiple factors, but children are so clear in their likes and dislikes, which is sad.
Lu Zao Zao thought of her childhood and inevitably felt a little sad, but the sadness was soon diluted by the heat from the bathroom. Amid the sound of water, she subconsciously touched the deep and scary scar on the back of her neck, but couldn't find it. She touched her neck again, but still felt empty.
Lu Zao Zao turned on all the messy lights in the bathroom and stood in the bright light. She faced the mirror and half turned around.
It’s really gone!
The neck and back were bare, with nothing on them except for a few drops of water that had not been wiped dry in time. The scar had disappeared without a trace, and there was no trace of its existence.
If the pain caused by this scar had not been so long-lasting and deep, Lu Zaozao would even suspect at this moment whether he had fabricated it.
That was when she was eight years old and was hit by a piece of glass falling from a high place while trying to save Lu Qingwan. The cut surface of the glass cut through her neck and spine like a sharp guillotine. At that moment, Lu Zao Zao could even clearly hear the sound of her bones breaking.
Later, he stayed in the ICU of the hospital for a long time. The smell of disinfectant always filled Lu Zao's nostrils. He clearly felt that he was awake, he heard people talking and chatting, and he also heard people's hurried footsteps, but his eyes were heavy and he could not open them, so he lay there like in a coma.
During this period, I kept having all kinds of dreams. In the dreams, I was always blurry and couldn't see clearly. Bright red blood kept flowing from under my body, forming a dark brown lake. There were people of all colors around me, and I could feel their eyes were staring at me.
But everyone stood there indifferently, ignoring her pain and cries for help. Their facial features were also blurry and it was unclear whether they were crying or laughing.
Lu was awakened early by this strange scene.
After waking up, I saw Lu Aotian and Shen Xingyao sitting on the sofa not far from the ward. The sunlight shone faintly on them, revealing two expressionless faces.
At that moment, Lu Zaozao guessed that if the appearance of everyone in the dream was clear, they would probably have this expression, without any emotion, and it would be absolutely impossible to express any strong emotions.
After wiping off the excess water droplets on his body, Lu Zao Zao once again touched the skin behind him. It was smooth and bare, without any raised, ugly suture scars.
Like a warning of a whole new destiny.
