Chapter 12: Receiving a Gift for the First Time

I looked up at him with tears in my eyes, and laughed at myself, "You are right, and it is not wrong to hate me, but my mother hopes that I will have a good relationship with you and marry your father smoothly, but I am not worthy of it, and I am not worthy of the respect of others." ”

As I spoke, my emotions came up, and my heart became even more sour: "You are high, and I am just a drag oil bottle wherever I go in my life, are you satisfied with this now?"

"What do you mean by that?" Zheng Xinguang furrowed his eyebrows deeply.

And I don't know where I got the courage, so I looked him in the eyes, "Isn't that what you mean?

His face was as black as the bottom of a pot: "When did I want to humiliate you?"

"Just now, and before!" I said firmly.

He seemed to remember something, and opened his mouth to say something to me, but suddenly shook his hand and burst out with a dirty word: "I can't make sense with you!"

I jerked to my feet and made eye contact with him.

Although I was nearly half a head shorter than him, I didn't lose to him at all in terms of momentum, I gritted my teeth tightly and glared at him: "You're right, your father loves you, and my mother also flatters you, I'm just a grass, no one cares about me!"

I was a little angry with him, and even vented all the grievances I had suffered during this time on him, I thought he would kick the door away as usual, but he didn't......

On the contrary, his behavior is very unusual.

"I'm sorry...!"

His apology was soft, but I could hear it clearly.

The classroom was so quiet and terrible that I even wondered for a moment if he was possessed by some demon, otherwise how could he, who had always been proud, apologize to me?

"I didn't mean to humiliate you, I just ......"

In fact, from the time Zheng Xinguang opened his mouth to say the three words "I'm sorry", my reason for running away from home just now had already returned, but I didn't react yet, so I froze.

I didn't hear much of what he explained later, but I do remember that it was the first time he had given in to me, the first time he tried to please me with words.

I've never felt this way before, but it's peculiar.

Obviously, this is probably one of the few times he apologized to someone, and after speaking, he diverted the topic: "It's not early, let's go home." ”

“...... We?"

I didn't expect that this relatively intimate word would one day come out of Zheng Xinguang's mouth, and it would be said to me.

He blushed at my deliberate emphasis, and his neck became louder, as if he had returned to the appearance of the Great Demon King of the Mixed World: "Are you going back?"

I nodded slightly, "Go back." ”

On the way back, we passed by a small vendor selling headbands, with colorful headdresses on the stalls, as well as peripheral models from TV dramas, which many female classmates in the class had.

My mom won't buy it for me, so I can only cast envious glances.

"You wait for me here. He suddenly stopped and confessed to me.

"What are you doing?" I asked hurriedly.

He ignored my question, but instead accelerated his pace and ran away, and when he came back, he already had an extra head rope in his hand, "Here you go." ”

Maybe it was because of the trotting that he had just trotted, and there was a hint of red on his cheeks, which was so cute.

I was stunned, and for a moment I couldn't take my eyes off him, and I silently commented in my heart that he didn't seem to be as bad as I had imagined......

"Do you want it?"

His abrupt accent woke me up from my contemplation, and when I saw the head rope with sunflower flowers in his palm, I hurriedly grabbed it, "You said you sent me, of course I want it!"

"Since you accepted my apology gift, then I will forgive me. Zheng Xinguang said awkwardly, and then seemed to think of it and added, "Don't cry in the future, it's ugly." ”

"I ......" I thought of the emotions just now, tears and snot flowed together, and I suddenly became a little shy.

"What? Do you want to quibble?"

I lowered my eyes and whispered, "If you hadn't suddenly provoked me, how could I have cried......"

"What? you still want to settle accounts after the fall?" he asked rhetorically.

"I'll be honest. ”

I stole a glance at him, my heart pounding.

This was the first time I'd ever received a gift from someone of the opposite sex, even though it was just a headband.

At that time, the summer was not as hot as it is now, and when I walked on the side of the road, there was a gentle evening breeze blowing, and even the wind seemed to have a human touch, blowing the two hearts slowly approaching.

I could see a subtle change in our relationship, and it wasn't as tense as it used to be.

Although the result of the big fuss was good, it also delayed a lot of time, and when we got home, we happened to bump into my mother who was about to go out, and she asked with a tense face, "Why did you go there, why did you come back so late?"

"Did you know that it's dangerous for a girl to be outside at night? Can you save me some snacks?"

Before I could speak, Zheng Xinguang behind me directly slapped my mother's face, "You can't help but take too much care." ”

My mother was a little embarrassed, but it was indeed her turn to discipline Zheng Xinguang, and after weighing, she still softened her complexion, "Auntie is just worried about you, and she doesn't mean to preach." ”

"Hmm. He replied nonchalantly.

My mother's attitude towards him was obviously much better than that of me, and she spoke to him softly, "Your Uncle Zheng is working overtime tonight, you go to the bathroom to wash your hands first, and we will have dinner immediately." ”

"Got it. ”

I just watched Zheng Xinguang go back to the room from under my mother's nose, and I was pulled into the room by her.

As soon as the door closed, my mother's questioning voice rang out.

"Say, why did you go home with Zheng Xinguang so late? Did you take my words to heart!"

I refused to say anything for a long time, and looked down at the ground with a weak heart, but my mother saw the sunflower-shaped head rope tied to my head, "What is this?"

She ripped the headstring off my head, "The pocket money I usually give you is only enough to eat, who bought this?"

"I bought the ...... with my own frugality"

My mom looked at me, but she couldn't deny my words, and threw the headband into the trash.

"Don't think that I didn't see you and Zheng Xinguang at the door just now, don't say in front of him that you are saving your face, you'd better stay away from Zheng Xinguang, otherwise you'll ......"

I know what my mother's temper is, and I don't dare to fight with her.

Nodding his head inappropriately, "Got it." ”

But after my mom went out, I picked up the headband from the trash can, patted the dust on it, and carefully put it in the drawer.

My heart is like stealing sugar water, sweet and silky.
