Chapter 81: Quicksand
Wen Xun originally just wanted to take a nap and wait until about three o'clock in the afternoon to get up and go to class. However, when she opened her eyes again, it was already more than five o'clock in the evening, because she hadn't slept all night last night, she was so tired and sleepy that she didn't hear the alarm clock at all, and she missed class for the first time since she went to college.
After sitting up and looking at the time, Wen Xun was stunned for a long time, and after reacting, she sighed vigorously and scratched her messy hair in annoyance.
"Wen Xun, are you awake?" Xu Huairou's voice came from below.
Wen Xun let out a sleepy "um", looked down, and saw Xu Huairou sitting on a chair writing.
"Huairou is here, I thought you would be in the cafeteria at this time. ”
"No, I'll be back after class. I wasn't too hungry, so I didn't go to dinner. When did you come back? Didn't you have classes in the afternoon?"
"Don't mention it, I missed class. Wen Xun said and got out of bed along the ladder, "Hey, I have to go to my classmates to borrow notes to see, the teacher of this class is very fast, this is his first class this semester, and I don't know how many things I missed." When I come back, in addition to making up notes, I have to finish the unfinished PPT, oh my God, I'm busy. ”
Looking at Wen Xun, who changed his shoes and put on his coat while breaking his thoughts, and then hurriedly ran out, Xu Huairou's eyes were clouded with some envy. This morning, she and Wen Xun's class was in the same public classroom, and she clearly saw that Wen Xun was not in a good state, and her eyes were so red and swollen that she had obviously cried, but today, she was able to study energetically again.
- Sure enough, I'm the only one who can't escape the shackles of emotion.
The paper on the table was wet with Xu Huairou's silent tears, and the words "application for leave of absence" were fainted.
She crumbled the paper in a ball and threw it in the trash.
When Wen Xun borrowed the notes and returned to the dormitory, Xu Huairou was no longer writing, she was lying on the table, and she didn't make a move when she heard the sound of pushing the door.
Wen Xun took a few steps forward a little worried, and patted Xu Huairou's shoulder, "Huairou, are you okay?"
"Wen Xun, are you afraid of living alone?" Xu Huairou still didn't raise her head, so she leaned on the table and asked. Her voice, which was already low because of her emotions, sounded even more muffled when she was lying on the table like this.
Wen Xun was stunned for a moment, pulled his chair and sat down next to Xu Huairou.
"Why do you ask?Huairou, what's wrong with you?"
"Are you afraid?" she asked again.
This is a very difficult question to answer, Wen Xun thought about it and answered truthfully, "I won't be afraid." But if you move out, I'm not used to it, and I'll miss you. So, you're moving out?"
Xu Huairou raised her head, shook her head with red eyes, "No, no, I'll just ask." ”
Wen Xun frowned thoughtfully and looked at Xu Huairou, Xu Huairou thought that Wen Xun would ask her what happened, and her heart was a little drumming. Unexpectedly, Wen Xun didn't ask anything more, she just smiled brightly and said, "There is a good-looking movie premiering tonight, I just want to watch it but I can't find anyone with me, do you want to go with me?"
"But you don't have notes and PPT ......"
"It's okay!" Wen Xun said in a brisk tone, "The note-taking teacher doesn't check it, I'll just go to the library to make up for it tomorrow when I don't have classes." PPT is not urgent, and the regular meeting will be held in two days. So you're going to come with me?"
Wen Xun's invitation came suddenly, and Xu Huairou didn't come up with a reason for not being able to come up with it. Besides, she also felt that she should go out for a walk, so she nodded.
"Then let's put on makeup together!" Wen Xun said and put out his dressing mirror, "Hurry up, don't be stunned." ”
Xu Huairou smiled and followed suit.
When it was dark, the two went out of the dormitory together. Wen Xun rubbed a little Huairou perfume to spray today, so now the two of them have the same sweet smell floating on them. In this campus, people either just walked back after class or just had dinner and walked back, Wen Xun and Xu Huairou, who were dressed exquisitely, can be regarded as a beautiful landscape, and some people look sideways from time to time.
Wen Xun approached Xu Huairou's ear and whispered to her, "Look, we are so beautiful, they keep looking at us." ”
Xu Huairou was amused, pushed Wen Xun, and said, "Look at you, look at you, no one looks at me." ”
After leaving school, they first went to dinner, and then went to the movie theater to buy tickets. The movie to be watched is in 3D, and after entering the venue and wearing glasses, the movie has not started to play on the screen, and all that is shown are some advertisements. The light was very dim, and everyone was wearing 3D glasses, so no one could see anyone clearly.
In such an environment, Wen Xun leaned closer to Xu Huairou and opened his mouth, his voice soft, "Huairou, when I was in a bad mood and trapped in my own small world before, you enlightened me. I don't know what's going on with you lately, but I can see that you're unhappy, so I want to try to enlighten you. ”
"You should know the right thing to do after falling into quicksand - instead of struggling, lie as flat as possible, expand the contact area between your body and the quicksand, and then move out slowly. I think bad emotions are like quicksand, the more you are in it, the less you can struggle, and you have to be more calm. So I took you to watch a 3D movie, hoping to give you an environment where you can get rid of bad emotions and recover your calmness, no matter what happened before, no matter how many things you have to deal with now, we will only watch the movie for a while, and we don't want anything superfluous. ”
"Okay?"
Xu Huairou silently listened to Wen Xun say a lot. She didn't answer right away, it was a tear that slipped quietly from behind her 3D glasses. But the scene was so dim that no one would notice her crying.
There was silence for a while, until the commercial was shown and the film company's logo was displayed on the screen. Xu Huairou said, "Okay." It can be regarded as a response to Wen Xun's words just now.
Wen Xun didn't feel that he was unhappy when he said so many words and only got a one-word answer, many times, whether the other party listened carefully to what you said and the length of the words he answered you has nothing to do with it, especially when the other party is in a bad mood.
She only hopes that she has really enlightened Xu Huairou.
Just like a long time ago, when she was in a bad mood, Xu Huairou enlightened her and said to her, "The trust of adults is precious, so it can't be easily paid on ethereal things." She memorized the same. Those words can still be found in her diary.
Wen Xun knew that she didn't face Xu Huairou's abnormality with a "curious" mentality, she didn't want to explore Xu Huairou's secret, she didn't want to dig out her heart, she just wanted to stand in a position that was not far away, and do her best to pull her.
