Chapter 103: Drinking
"How much can you drink?" Si Qi opened a can of wine and handed it to him, then said, "I can't drink much, two cans is the limit." In fact, two cans were her seven years ago, she hadn't touched alcohol for a long, long time, and she didn't even drink alcoholic beverages, which is why she finally chose to drink beer, otherwise she would have fainted drunk on the spot before the two cans were eaten, wouldn't it be very embarrassing.
Shi Jing took the beer and said very sincerely: "I don't know, I'm not drunk." ”
"A thousand cups are not drunk!" Si Qi was speechless, quite weak-hearted, but when he saw his shy and timid expression, he suddenly became proud again, heroically picked up the beer and touched it with him, and said very excitedly: "Come, let's celebrate." ”
Celebrate?
Shi Jing clutched the beer bottle tightly, and asked seriously and expectantly, "What are you celebrating?" His expression looked calm, but his deep eyes flashed with fire, and those who were expecting a crowd of people turned their faces up, and they clenched their fists in anticipation, waiting for a certain sentence or an answer to be announced, and then they could wave their hands to celebrate this great day.
Si Qi quietly swept over those eyes, reading everything contained there, but he still couldn't help but have a certain bad taste, and said with a smile: "Of course it's a celebration... I have a new car..."After speaking, she paused deliberately before adding: "Speaking of which, I have to thank you, this is the first car in my life." She brushed her hair, drank her beer in a refreshed gulp, and decided to strengthen herself first.
Shi Jing: "......"
The expected fire in his eyes was like someone pouring a bucket of cold water on his head, and it dropped to freezing point in an instant, he didn't say anything more, just glanced at Si Qi, bowed his head silently and drank the wine, and then sat on the sofa with his head down, as if he had been wronged on the spot.
This person is too honest, the excitement of bullying people has not yet been puffed up, and he has been defeated by guilt and pity first, Si Qi saw his appearance, and wanted to travel back to just now, take that sentence back and swallow it, she handed him another can of beer, while trying to hide the bad taste just now, and said attentively: "This second can of wine is to celebrate that I finally found the painting and the person in the painting, and fulfilled my wish for many years." ”
Hearing this, Shi Jing's dim eyes lit up in an instant, he took the beer, his fingers couldn't help twisting the can, and he couldn't help asking: "For... Why are you looking for this painting?"
Si Qi was silent.
Back then, after she returned from the exhibition, she made a comment on her speech: If I could travel through space, I would like to go to the painting and be an angel who brings the beautiful man in the painting back to the world from hell.
If the second breath is so strong, it seems that now it is not only hypocritical, but also very cheeky, which makes it difficult for people to look directly, and it will give you goosebumps when you think about it, no way, it's too numb.
She took a sip of wine and decided to swallow the words back into her stomach, so she smiled and drew a cake: "It's a secret, I'll tell you later." ”
"Then how long will it be after this?" Shi Jing asked.
Si Qi couldn't laugh or cry, and said helplessly: "How can there be someone like you." ”
Shi Jing seemed to have to ask an answer, seeing that she refused to answer this question, she was silent for a while, her hands subconsciously held the beer can, and the words on it were almost twisted, he looked at Si Qi carefully, and quickly turned his gaze away, his lips trembled for a long time, his eyes fluttered enough to roll up a tornado, and he hesitated for a long time before finally asking the sentence that was coiled in the depths of his heart: "Then you... That can try to be happy... Like me?"
This sentence probably used up all the courage and strength he had, so after saying that, his whole person seemed to be sealed, staring at her in a daze, his face was red and white, with a desperate determination, his eyes were still very bright, almost a little dazzling, when he stared at her, his eyes were extremely focused and dignified, and there was a kind of seriousness that could not be ignored, as if this question must be answered very carefully, otherwise I am sorry for heaven and earth.
This serious expression is really touching, just these words......
Si Qi: "......"
In an instant, she seemed to have returned to the junior high school days, and was asked out by the male classmate in the next class, under the inaccessible wall, the male classmate gave her a love letter with a red face, and she didn't dare to raise her eyes and asked the same sentence, she vaguely remembered that time she rejected the male classmate's confession with righteous words, and then from the mental health of teenagers to the impact of early love on studies and life, she gave the male classmate a brainwash.
Then, the male classmate snatched the love letter with a frightened face, and ran away without looking back, and then her reputation as a top student spread all over the school so inexplicably, in fact, there are always subjects with lower than average scores in her cultural classes that occasionally come out to brush up on her sense of existence, resulting in every time she is below the average score, the teacher will take out the rumors of a school bully to spur her, so that she can't wait to pull out the boy and beat her again.
Look at how far away this is, almost forcibly squeezed by her * to the deepest part of her heart, and she has long disappeared in the long river of years.
In fact, it is very strange that Shi Jing can always make her think of a lot of things in the past in the most insipid and fearless mood, probably because he has some invisible magic!
Si Qi stroked her hair, and when she saw Shi Jing still looking at her, the expectation and fear in her eyes were swaying back and forth, almost making her feel dizzy, she pinched her temples, and said tactfully and a little embarrassed: "I remember that we seem to have already received the certificate, right?"
"Getting a certificate is getting a certificate, liking is liking, these are two different things. Shi Jing's mind suddenly became very clear, and his mouth became sharp, and he seemed to have to get some answer from her mouth, such a persistent and persistent appearance was very different from the usual shyness and timidity.
Si Qi rubbed her head, she always felt a little dizzy, the blood vessels all over her body were pounding suddenly, and even her thoughts became floating, she smacked her mouth and drank the wine in her hand, in fact, she wanted to say to him the words he was looking forward to, but when the words came to her mouth, she seemed to be disturbed by alcohol, her tongue stiffened for a moment, and the sentence in her heart became: "Then what should I do, if I want to kiss you, can you really rest assured?"
As soon as the words fell, her trance-like consciousness was inexplicably dragged back a little, so she immediately noticed that this annoying tongue was making its own assertion again, and that it was too unserious and rigorous, and with a thick tone
* Joke, she covered her face, silently spit on herself in a word, obviously wanted to say such a formal and serious sentence, why did she become like this when her brain was dizzy, and is there any reason for heaven?
Or is this the original meaning of this sentence, a cry from the depths of her soul?
If this is the case, it will be even more terrifying, first moving people to hug others, and then drinking to ask for relatives, what kind of behavior is this, this is completely a textbook-style hooligan.
Tonight is really a special night, so special that she completely let go of herself, instantly returned to seven years ago, and turned back into the ignorant young woman who didn't know the height of the sky, and she dared to shine all over the world if she gave her a little sunshine, only at that time, she dared to speak freely, expressed her emotions without any consideration, not afraid of being rejected, and fearless of not getting it, she dared to love and hate.
What a green, hot-blooded, and enjoyable life it was, but unfortunately, it was ruined by her unknown acquaintance.
So, from then on, she could no longer trust anyone sincerely, and she had always prided herself on being strong and brave, but she cowardly became a deserter.
In the past seven years, she thought that the seven emotions and six desires had been banned and killed a long time ago, and in the end she was just deceiving herself.
However, tonight, this situation, she seems to have absorbed some kind of inexplicable strength from the person next to her, so that she has the courage to face the past, so she closed her eyes and let her mind rise and fall, sure enough, the turns are those past glory years, her high school, her college, her dance, her romance, her failure, she relaxed her mind, for the first time let herself immerse herself in the past that she never dared to recall.
The sentence in her heart: "I will always be with you", was not pronounced by her after all, but she had already made a decision.
Shi Jing was like a little daughter-in-law who was molested by a bully, hearing this, a thin layer of red immediately floated on his face, and his eyes drifted for a long time, but he never dared to fall on the face of the person next to him, he quickly picked up the beer, took a sip like Si Qi, and took a deep breath silently, hoping to accumulate some courage for himself, so as not to faint on the spot when he was kissed later, it would be too embarrassing.
However, when he finally prepared herself to make her words come true, he found that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.
Two cans is the limit, and that's too accurate.
Shi Jing's gaze slowly fell on Si Qi's face, she was probably drinking on her face, but after five minutes of work, her whole face was already red as blood, and even her neck became red, but her sleeping face was quiet and well-behaved, leaning on the sofa sideways, putting her hands under her cheeks, the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, as if she was dreaming, Shi Jing couldn't take her eyes off for a while, and stared at her quietly for a while, her expression softened in an instant.
After a long time, he got up and picked up Si Qi and sent him back to the bedroom, covered the quilt for her, went to the next room to look at Si Xiaojun, went downstairs and poured a cup of hot water into the thermos cup, and rested it on Si Qi's bedside.
When everything was ready, Shi Jing exhaled, sat silently on the soft stool in front of the bed, staring at Si Qi's sleeping face without turning his eyes, his breathing was light and steady, almost invisible in the silent room, as if he was afraid of waking up the person on the bed*.
He had never had the opportunity to look at Si Qi so quietly and steadily, with the faint little orange lamp at the head of the bed, he kept looking at Si Qi like this, not wanting to let go of even a second, and in a trance he seemed to remember before the age of seventeen, when he was engrossed in his studies, but occasionally let go of himself, imagining what the partner he would spend his life with in the future would be like, and what kind of love journey they would have.
However, this life was hastily broken, sunk into the swamp for eighteen years, and only now can it be connected, those things that originally existed only in the imagination seem to have become real at this moment, and from a distance, he can even feel her body temperature, her warm cheeks, her soothing and gentle eyes, this longing is like a dying person suddenly reunited, and the great joy makes him even tremble in his breath.
But he didn't move, in fact, for him, as long as he could look at her and let him think about it in his heart, he was already very satisfied.
By the time Si Qi woke up the next day, he had already left the room.
