Chapter 22: Caught off guard

It's New Year's Day in a blink of an eye, and after experiencing the events of that night, I subconsciously seem to accept Du Yuan's existence, she lives in my house, and we live a small life like husband and wife, without making me feel the slightest discomfort.

New Year's Day was a day off, just the night before, after work, I didn't leave directly as usual, I sat in my seat

I feel empty about my current job, it's been so long, I've wondered more than once if it's what I want, it turns out I don't like the job, but at the moment I need to live on it, even though I've been saving money for a few months.

After sitting for a while, I packed up some things and went home, and I saw Du Yuan waiting for me to eat there, that feeling was very warm, and at some point I really wanted to be with Du Yuan, at least we had no conflicts, and we could live well together, I think she must be a good wife and mother.

I sat down at the table and took the phone in my pocket aside: "Tomorrow New Year's Day, let's go out and have a fun, you must be very annoyed when you are bored in the house all day." ”

"Okay, where to go?"

"Haven't figured it out yet, where do you want to go?"

Du Yuan thought about it and didn't answer me for a long time.

"Let's eat first, and think about it tomorrow. ”

"Hmm. ”

After eating, I sat there and didn't leave, I didn't go back to the room to write something as usual, I looked at Du Yuan's back, this woman seemed to have really become my wife at this moment.

I'm going to get some rest, recuperate, and go out tomorrow. Surprisingly this year, I didn't plan to wait until 12 o'clock to welcome the new year.

I fell asleep in a daze, and in the middle of the night, Du Yuan woke me up from the quilt and pulled me out.

"It's the new year soon, get up and accompany me on New Year's Eve. ”

Although reluctantly, I got up and went to my original room, Du Yuan opened the window, and snow fell outside the window, and the snow in the new year must be a good sign.

Looking at the blessings sent by Ziming, Brother Jin, Tian Jie, Chao, and Lao Jin Xiaomu on the mobile phone, of course, there are other people's, and I also sent them blessings.

Du Yuan closed her eyes, I didn't know what she was doing, and when she was done, she turned her head to look at me.

"Bless me, today is my birthday. ”

I was stunned for a moment: "Happy birthday! Why don't you tell me in advance, I can buy a cake." ”

"It's good for you to stay with me, in the past, I was alone on New Year's Day, and I never went to have a birthday, what kind of birthday is a person. ”

I picked up Du Yuan, held her in my arms, and looked out the window at the snowfall, and there seemed to be a countdown sound in the distance.

"It's okay, I'll accompany you for your birthday from now on. ”

Du Yuan looked up at me in surprise: "Do you accept me?"

I didn't answer, I didn't refuse, and Du Yuan didn't care.

"Thank you, I'm so happy, Happy New Year!"

"Happy birthday, go to sleep, go out tomorrow and make up for your birthday present." ”

The next day, Du Yuan woke up in the morning and told me that she wanted to climb the mountain, but there was no mountain around her that she wanted to go to.

She thought about it again: "I want to go to the aquarium, I used to think that my dad could take me there, but he is very busy and has no time to play with me during the day." ”

"Well, let's go to the aquarium first. ”

I suddenly remembered in my hand, and I looked at Brother Yuan.

"Hey, what's wrong, Brother Yuan?"

"Your cat is still with me, it's already on my New Year's Eve, aren't you going to take it back?"

I suddenly remembered that after drinking at Brother Yuan's that day. Left the cat there, and I still don't remember it.

"Brother Yuan, I'll go to your place at night, do you see it's okay, by the way, we ate together, it's a new year." ”

"Okay, then you'll come to the coffee shop in the evening. ”

"Okay, see you in the evening. ”

Du Yuan came over and asked who it was, I said, "Brother Yuan, I lost the cat I bought that day, I didn't remember it, and you forgot it?" I looked at Du Yuan with a smile, a little helpless, we lost the cat we bought, and no one noticed it.

I went out and took Du Yuan straight to the aquarium, it snowed last night, and there are still a lot of people who come to play with their children today, after I bought a ticket, I pulled Du Yuan in.

From sharks and turtles to dolphins, sea lions, seals, and penguins. Finally, I went to the jellyfish exhibition hall, where Du Yuan looked at the glowing jellyfish, as if women liked this kind of thing.

It was already afternoon after shopping, and I bought Du Yuan a jellyfish in a bottle at the exit and gave it to her, and she hugged me in surprise.

"Li Da, thank you, I am very happy today. ”

Out of the aquarium, we went for a walk and had a coffee.

In the evening, Du Yuan said she didn't want to eat out, so we went back.

When I got downstairs, I saw a familiar figure from a distance, she was standing there dragging her suitcase, and Du Yuan was holding my hand, and we were looking at each other.

I stood there and didn't move, looking at Tang Xi in the distance, obviously she also saw me.

I didn't dare to go over, I didn't know how to face her, Du Yuan next to me also noticed my strangeness, she looked at me, and then looked at Tang Xi who walked towards me.

Tang Xi dragged the suitcase in front of me and looked at me like that: "Who is she?"

I didn't know how to answer her, my silence seemed to irritate Tang Xi: "Didn't you say that you go to see me every month? Why didn't you come once? Is it because of her? You are lying to me, this is the first time you have lied to me." ”

Tang Xi's voice began to tremble, tears began to slide from the corners of her eyes, I looked at her helplessly, I didn't know how to answer, and I didn't know how to comfort her.

I don't seem to be able to explain Du Yuan clearly, Du Yuan clenched my hand at the moment, unwilling to let go.

"Is it the last time you lied to me?"

I nodded, not realizing what Tang Xi meant. And after Tang Xi saw me nodding, he pulled the suitcase and turned around and left.

I looked at Tang Xi who was leaving, and I wanted to catch up, but Du Yuan refused to let go of my hand, I broke Du Yuan's hand vigorously and chased in the direction of Tang Xi.

I caught up with Tang Xi out of breath and took her hand to prevent her from leaving.

Tang Xi wanted to break away from me, I looked at Tang Xi, looking at the tears on her face, I reached out to wipe it off for her, and she directly hit my hand.

"Tell me, who is she?" Tang Xi's voice was very small, but it hit my heart, how should I explain it in my mind, but I didn't want to lie to her, and Tang Xi, who couldn't get an answer, wanted to earn it again.

"Let go!" Tang Xi shouted heartbreakingly this time.

"I'm waiting for your answer, but why don't you tell me who she is?

"You don't want to answer, is it true that what I see is true?"

"Why can't you lie to me once? I came to you with joy, I couldn't let you go, but what did I see, did you even know who she was, and it was so difficult to answer me?"

Facing Tang Xi's crying, all I could do was not let go of her hand, Du Yuan had already lived in my house, if I told Tang Xi that it was okay, how would I explain that she had entered the house.

"Xixi, I ......"

"Don't you want to lie to me? Even if you lie to me, I have a reason to stay, but you. ”

I hugged Tang Xi and hugged him tightly: "I'm sorry, Xixi, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, can you forgive me." ”

Tang Xi calmed down in my arms, she didn't argue anymore, raised her head and looked at me calmly: "I'm sorry? What I saw is true? You really don't even want to lie to me." ”

Tears slipped from the corners of my eyes, I knew that once I let go of her, she would really go, but I couldn't explain it, I couldn't answer it, I had always been indecisive about feelings, maybe this was my fatal wound.
