Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 110

Boom … Splash …

Poppi cursed at the damn weather and ran out of the cram school. She put her schoolbag on top of her head and rushed all the way to the bus station. She didn't want her classmates to find out that she had left alone. She didn't take an umbrella with her at the sudden severe rain. What a bad luck. 'I guess I'll go to the cram school for her tomorrow. She doesn't have to pretend to be sick, or she'll be really sick!' she thought!

There was no one on the street because of the rain. Only a few Mercedes Benz cars were shuttling quickly. With the lonely street lights, it seemed more empty and lonely.

"Clang!"

"Ah!" A car passed by with a stream of water splashed all over Poppi's body. She quickly pulled her skirt and jumped to the roadside, looking annoyed.

On the roadside, there happened to be a big tree, so Poppi quickly stood under the tree and screwed the water on her dress.

Bowwow … Woof …

When Poppi raised her arm to wipe the water from her face, She heard the helpless groans of little animals from the tall grass beside the tree. Poppi stopped immediately and listened carefully.

"Woof … Bow-wow... "

Not long after, a soft voice came from the grass, which made it more pitiful in the rain. It should be a puppy, right?

Seeing this, Poppi could not help feeling sympathetic for it as she knew that she only loved dogs. On her way to school, she only saw stray dogs and she had to buy some food to feed them. In the end, the dogs around the school always stood their tails up when they saw her. Someone bullied her, and a group of dogs ran up to chase them away. The scene was spectacular. If her father didn't stop her, she would take all the stray dogs home.

One of the reasons why her father didn't allow her to keep a dog was that Celine was allergic to animals.

It seemed that Poppi did not care about the rain at all and her clothes at all. She put her schoolbag aside, squatted down and went into the grass. She then slowly followed the sound to find the source of the voice. She gently said: "don't be afraid, puppy. Where are you?"

Some hard wood branches in the grass blocked her way, and her face and body were scratched.

Poppi lowered her hat and adjusted her mask. She knelt down on the ground and climbed into the grass bit by bit. The grass was a little high enough to cover the whole body of Poppi.

"Woof, woof, woof..."

The sound of the dog was in front of her, and she was so happy that she hurriedly pushed away a large leaf in front of her and called, "puppy..."

The smile on Poppi's face suddenly froze as soon as she pushed away the leaves. All of a sudden, her eyes met a cold sight which was like a sharp knife staring at her in a rainy night.

Is there a man hiding here?!

All of a sudden, Poppi was out of breath and was about to scream, but before she could open her mouth, a bright light flashed in front of her eyes and with a sound of whipping, a bright dagger held out on her neck in an instant. The man in front of her slowly said in a ferocious, weak voice, "my dagger is so sharp. If you dare to scream, it will cut your throat."

It was a man! Poppi suddenly shut up. She was so scared that her body stiffened and was still trembling slightly.

"Bow-wow..." The dog whimpered beside the man's elbow.

The next second when Poppi felt the rage from the man, she saw this man move his hand and the knife was stabbed in the direction of the puppy.

"Oh, no!" Poppi grabbed the man's arm all of a sudden, "you … What are you doing? "

The man gasped and the knife in his hand fell to the ground feebly. He fell to the ground as well.

When she was about to reach for the knife, her hand was grabbed by the man opposite her. His hand was as strong as an iron rope which hurt his arm.

"Even so, killing you is as easy as killing an ant for me!" The man's voice was fierce and loud in the rain, but he still sounded young.

The grass was dark. Poppi could only see the man's eyes and nodded with trembling, but she felt her hands were sticky. She rubbed her sticky hand with the other hand and smelled blood …

"You... You are injured?" Poppi was shocked and became more afraid. What a unlucky night! She was going to have this kind of thing! 'Will he kill me?' 'No, I'm just eighteen years old. I don't want to die yet!'

The man snorted and did not speak.

"Where... Where did you get hurt?" Poppi didn't know why she asked this question all of a sudden, so she quivered her hands to feel the man's arm. Just after she touched it a few times, the man took a deep breath.

"You are injured in the rain. You will get a fever." Poppi said in low voice. Poppi was so kind-hearted that she suddenly picked up the knife and looked at it for a long time. Then she pulled her skirt and made a deep cut with the knife. In the darkness, she touched the wound on the man's body and carefully bound it up.

The dog whimpered, looking so pitiful.

"You go there to look for him!"

"Damn it! Where is she? "

At this moment, she heard a lot of footsteps on the road all of a sudden. It was followed by fierce screams. It seemed that they were looking for someone.

Poppi was a little dizzy because of the rain, but when she heard the sound coming from the road, she closed her mouth subconsciously. Looking at the man in front of him, she guessed that those people were looking for him?

"Woof, woof, woof..."

The dog barked again, which startled both the two hiding in the grass. Seeing this, Poppi took the puppy in her arms and smoothed its hair. The puppy stopped crying immediately.

No one was found on the road, neither did she hear the sound, but quickly scattered, and the footsteps were getting farther and farther.

Completely relieved, Poppi asked in a low voice, "how long are you going to hide here?"

"What do you want to do?" The man said, narrowing his eyes.

"I..." Poppi shrank her body and said, "I just want to say that it's not a good way for you to hide here as you are still injured. I'll go to buy some medicine for you and take you to a place to shelter from the rain. Otherwise … You may die. "

Splash …

The rain seemed to be getting heavier. After a long time, the man opposite her spoke slowly, "what's your name?"

"Celine!"

Poppi had been silently repeating Celine's name in her heart for thousands of times. She was afraid that she had forgotten to answer when the teacher pointed at "Celine". But now, she blurted it out as soon as she heard the name.

"No, no, no, No. I am not..." Poppi screamed. Poppi began to explain in a hurry. What if he will take his revenge on Celine after that day? Blamed! Damn it!! Poppi swallowed hard and said, "my name is not Celine, I..."

"It doesn't matter." The man seemed to be a little angry and reached out his hand to take off the mask of Poppi. Poppi was shocked and stepped back quickly as she covered her face with her hand and said in a low voice, "you … What are you doing! "

The man paused. After a while, he snorted dejectedly, "why don't you go and buy me the antidote?"

"I..." All kinds of grievances and dissatisfaction welled up in Poppi's heart. What a weird man! Since she had helped him out of kindness, how could he be so arrogant and bossy? Poppi turned around with the puppy in her arms, and slightly poked her head out of the grass. Looking at the empty road, she took a deep breath and ran.

But after she had just run two steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around and went back to the grass again. She stuffed the puppy in her arms to the man and said, "you, you help me take care of the puppy, and let it stay with you first. Please don't hurt it. Dogs are human's good friends, and you must be good to them! I'll be back soon! "

"Will you come back?"

"Of course I will come back!" Poppi replied without hesitation and touched the dog's head again, "you must wait for me! Don't get wet. I'll be right back after buying some medicine! "

"…… Okay. "

The word "Okay" became an eternal memory.

Poppi came back to earth from the distant memory and looked at the woman sitting opposite her. She smiled lightly and said, "that was eight years ago. I had a fever when I came back that night. I didn't know if it was a dream. "

"With remembering all the details, I'm sure it's not a dream!" "Did you see the face of the man clearly?" said Shirley.

"No, I didn't." Poppi shook her head and said, "it was raining and it was so dark outside. If I found a person hiding in the grass, my eyesight would be much better. But you still wish that I could see his face clearly. But later, I was still worried that someone would cause trouble for Celine. After I went to the University, I called her every day, but nothing happened. Perhaps that person has been chased by others? "

With her back leaning against the chair, Shirley was discouraged and asked, "so you didn't find him after that?"

Poppi rolled her eyes at her and said, "my elder sister, I saved him, why do you still want me to find him? When I came back with the medicine, the man and the dog were both gone. They didn't have any blood. I doubt that I was delusional … All right, let's stop talking about this. "

"Let's drop it. I have something to deal with this afternoon. I have a few words with you before I go. "

"Please go ahead." Poppi smiled.

"Don't have too much burden in mind. Just go ahead. I will be there for you! I'm in favor of your relationship absolutely! " Shirley patted her chest. "These days when you're not here, there's a kind of gossip going on in Ye city, and it's still concerned about the relationship between you and Benson. Don't worry it in your mind. Of course, they don't know you're the wife of the best man in Ye city and your husband Malcolm enough to back you up! "

Poppi pursed her lips and smiled. She could not help feeling happy in her heart.

"Hey, hey, you must restrain your sweet appearance!" With her finger bent, Shirley tapped the table slightly and said, "especially in front of Mr. Su, you can't behave like this. Otherwise, he will cry when he sees this. He has been in low spirits these days. It turns out that you have caused him misery by your beauty. Ms. Su must have known it, right? "

Poppi smiled apologetically, "it seems that he knows I'm going to find Malcolm."

"Well! Then he must have known everything. "

"No, no, No. Maybe he don't know about our marriage yet! Don't tell him about it! " "Keep it a secret!" Poppi pulled Shirley and said.

With a "OK" sign, Shirley made a promise happily.
