Chapter 50: Doomed to be missed
"Then why did they arrest you?" Xiao Xiao asked again.
"They're people sent by my dad. Liu Jiameng's face suddenly became ugly.
"Why did your dad arrest you?" Xiao Xiao didn't dare to speak loudly.
"Catch me and go back on a blind date. Liu Jiameng lowered her head and clasped her fingers.
Xiao Xiao was silent and quietly accompanied her by her side.
After a while, Liu Jiameng said, "I'm going to go down at the next stop." ”
"Huh, where are you going?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"Went to stay at a friend's house. By the way, what's your name. Liu Jiameng was about to get up and get out of the car.
"Xiao Xiao. ”
"Goodbye. ”
After Liu Jiameng got off the bus, she sat on the bus in a daze, her eyes empty and aimless.
She suddenly remembered that the cups from the two cafes in her hand had not been returned, so she immediately got out of the car and sat back on the opposite side.
When she returned home, her parents had just returned, and she took a shower and lay on her bed exhausted, lamenting what had happened tonight.
Maybe she was too tired from running, and she fell asleep after a while, and Xiao's mother called her name in the living room, but no one answered.
Xiao's mother entered her room, holding a plate of cut fruit in her hand, and she saw Xiao Xiao lying on the bed and falling asleep, so she quietly turned off the light and locked the door.
The next day, Xiao Xiao still slept until noon, Xiao's father sat in the study to study his books, and Xiao's mother sat on the sofa and watched the hottest TV series. Xiao Xiao walked out of the bedroom lazily, yawning and stretching.
"Mom, good morning. ”
"Good morning, you slept until noon. Xiao's mother looked at the TV and couldn't take her eyes off it.
"Good afternoon, then. ”
"It's not good at noon, the gas in the kitchen is gone, I can't cook today, and your dad and I haven't eaten yet." Xiao's mother looked very calm.
"It's simple, it's called takeout, Mom, whatever you want to eat, I'll buy it for you." Xiao Xiao took out his mobile phone from his pocket and clicked on Meituan takeaway.
"It's already called, it's on the way," Xiao's mother glanced at her daughter with messy hair, "You hurry up and wash up, you'll have to eat in a while." ”
Xiao Xiao let out an "oh" and walked quickly to the bathroom.
After a while, Xiao Xiao heard a knock on the door, huh, mother was not in the living room, Xiao Xiao hurriedly wiped the water droplets on his face, ran to the living room and opened the door.
At this time, Xiao's mother walked out of the bedroom and kept shouting, "It's coming, it's coming." ”
Peng Nana stood outside the door with two plates of dumplings, and when Xiao's mother saw it, she immediately warmly invited her into the house.
"Auntie, my mother-in-law said that your family ran out of gas and couldn't cook today, so let me bring two plates of dumplings to you to eat. Peng Nana was dressed plainly, her hair was simply tied into a ponytail, and she looked like a good wife and mother.
Xiao Xiao's face suddenly became very ugly, and he looked at the two plates of dumplings coldly, eager to throw them out.
This woman is really thick-skinned, she always runs to other people's houses, and she doesn't care if the other party wants her to come over or not.
After Peng Nana left, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother ate dumplings, and praised after eating one, "The daughter-in-law of the family next door is really virtuous." “
Xiao Xiao couldn't listen to it anymore, so she sat on the sofa alone and picked up an apple to eat, she threw the apple core in the trash, and it happened to be taken out.
Xiao Xiao put the takeaway box on the table and said proudly, "What's so delicious about dumplings, takeaway is delicious." ”
She opened the lunch box and looked confused, it turned out that her mother was also calling dumplings, and now the situation is completely a slap in the face, whether to eat or not to eat?
She touched her rumbling belly, picked up a pair of chopsticks, stuffed a dumpling into her mouth, and said with a satisfied face, "Mom, the dumplings you ordered are so delicious, they must be better than those sent by the family next door." “
"Yes, I'll try one," Xiao's mother took a bite of a dumpling, "It tastes good, but I still think our neighbors make it delicious, and their dumplings are more delicious." “
"How is that possible?" Xiao Xiao showed an incredulous expression.
"Why don't you try one? Xiao's mother sandwiched a dumpling and put it in her bowl.
Xiao Xiao saw that the dumplings were all sent to the bowl, and it was not easy to refuse, even if he was reluctant, he had to eat it hard.
Xiao Xiao took a bite gently, and the mellow thick juice immediately hit her taste buds, which was also so delicious, and her favorite shrimp was added to it.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but eat the second one after eating the first one, and finally she no longer cared about the origin of the dumplings, and swallowed several directly. Sure enough, there is only good food and a bed in the world, even if it is the food of the enemy.
"Just now I said that people's dumplings are not delicious, now I know whose dumplings are delicious. Xiao Mu teased.
Xiao Xiao hiccuped and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect this Peng Nana to train her cooking skills so well, and she really relied on her good wife and mother." ”
Xiao's mother washed the plate and handed it to Xiao Xiao, "Go, send the plate to the neighbor next door." ”
"Do you want me to send it?" Xiao Xiao frowned, looking very reluctant to go over.
"Be obedient, send it over. ”
Xiao Xiao took the plate and slowly moved to the door of the neighbor's house next door and rang the doorbell.
The door opened, and a tall man appeared in front of Xiao Xiao with a child in his arms.
That's right, this man is Jiang Pengcheng.
"Xiao Xiao, are the dumplings enough to eat? The smile on his face was very gentle, and his eyes fell on Xiao Xiao's face fixedly, and he never moved away.
"No," Xiao Xiao deliberately avoided his gaze, lowered his head and said, "The plate will be returned to you." ”
Jiang Pengcheng stretched out his hand to take the plate, and Xiao Xiao happened to see the ring on his ring finger.
The atmosphere was awkward for a few seconds, so quiet that you could hear the sound of dust floating and wandering in the air.
He watched her leave, and she never looked back.
Xiao Xiao thought that the "senior year" could be spent peacefully, but it was planted in the hands of the two of them.
When she first started school, Jiang Pengcheng and Peng Nana went back to Beijing to hold a grand wedding, and soon after they returned to Shanghai to entertain their colleagues, Peng Nana took the initiative to invite Xiao Xiao to participate, but she refused.
Since then, Xiao Xiao has cut off all contact with Jiang Pengcheng.
On the day of the National Day, Xiao Xiao came to the Bund and came to the place where Huang Haitao and her last met. Thinking back to the bits and pieces of the past, she hated God's playful arrangement, her heart was like tens of thousands of steel needles inserted, her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she couldn't shout if she wanted to. She faced the river, faced the silence, and reverently repented.
"There are a lot of people today, pull me, don't run around. ”
I don't know where a familiar voice came from, Xiao Xiao looked around, she seemed to be crazy, kept walking through the crowd, and gradually she saw a familiar back, yes, he was Huang Haitao.
She finally met him.
But there were other girls around him.
From time to time, the girl circled around him, smiling as bright as a flower, and he gently took the girl's hand, for fear of losing her in the crowd. The girl obediently held his arm, and the two looked at each other, talking and laughing.
Xiao Xiao froze in place, gloomy and sad.
It seems that it is not easy to travel today, and she should not come to this place, from the moment she recognized Jiang Pengcheng as Huang Haitao, her fate with Huang Haitao was over.
They can't go back to the past, and they can't step into the future, there is always a hurdle in the hearts of the two of them, no one will mind, no one can let go.
Go back, there is no need to stay here any longer, she walked down the steps step by step, and was almost knocked down by a person accidentally, she stumbled and collapsed on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see you just now, it's okay. The girl lifted her up.
"Xinyi, what's wrong?" a man hurriedly ran over and hugged the girl nervously.
Xiao Xiao was stunned, her pink lips slightly hooked a good-looking arc, and this smile was also faint, like a light cloud, rubbed in melancholy.
"It's you. Huang Haitao's face did not change.
"Hmm. Xiao Xiao smiled softly, like a faint glow floating from the corner of her mouth.
"Do you know?" asked the girl, curious.
"Yes, she was my high school girl. Huang Haitao looked light-hearted.
"Oh, hello, my name is Jiang Xinyi, and I am Huang Haitao's girlfriend. The girl's smile was so sweet, so deep, so round, like a string of pearls, the size of which shone brightly, bursting with innocence.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Xiao. You guys keep playing, I've got to go beforehand. Xiao Xiao said goodbye.
After turning around, her eyes suddenly filled with tears, which seemed to slip down in the next second, but she just smiled and swallowed the tears back into her eyes, and her face suddenly relaxed.
This year's National Day is as usual in previous years, lively with loneliness, Xiao Xiao came home at night, extremely bored, as usual to open Weibo, as usual, to watch those small videos posted by Xiao Zhengke, there are a lot of what he saw and heard in the United States, very interesting, these videos completely satisfied her curiosity.
I don't know why, whenever she is unhappy, she can't help but open Xiao Zhengke's avatar, and when she sees his funny look, she can't help laughing. Many times she will think of the days when she was messing around with Xiao Zhengke, perhaps that was the best memory of her youth.
Suddenly, her phone rang, as if it was a QQ message.
Xiao Zhengke: Hello, dominatrix.
Xiao Xiao: Hello, little white face.
Xiao Zhengke: Hello, little man.
Xiao Xiao: Hello, stupid big guy.
Xiao Zhengke: Hello, short and poor.
Xiao Xiao: Hello, you idiot.
Xiao Zhengke: I haven't scolded you for a long time, and my mouth is itchy.
Xiao Xiao: Ouch, there is no one in the United States who can scare you?
Xiao Zhengke: Not really.
Xiao Xiao: If you are really bored every day, just find a girlfriend, how beautiful a foreign girl is.
Xiao Zhengke: I'm not that interested, I'm not interested in American girls.
Xiao Xiao: The university I applied to was the same university as you.
Xiao Zhengke: Ouch, I'm going, I'm so flattered, my schoolgirl chased me to the United States.
Xiao Xiao: ......
Xiao Zhengke: Tell me, what delicious food are you going to bring me?
Xiao Xiao: ......
Xiao Zhengke: What do the six points mean?
Xiao Xiao: I am speechless to you.
"Xiao Xiao, come out to eat fruit. Xiao's mother called in the living room.
"Oh, got it. Xiao Xiao replied loudly.
Xiao Xiao: Don't talk about it, I'm going to eat something.
Xiao Zhengke: Foodie!
Xiao Xiao turned off the computer and went to the living room.
