Chapter 168: I Know It
Qi Jingchen has been standing on the corner of the street watching Bai Xiaojiu chat with Bai Junguo in the same place, thinking about the past, but afraid that they will be embarrassed.
Holding milk tea in his hand, he kept biting the straw, but he didn't drink a sip, and he bit it again and again.
Keep your eyes on Bai Xiaojiu, waiting for the milk tea to warm your hands to room temperature, and then to cool down completely.
When the temperature was as cool as this late autumn, Bai Xiaojiu said goodbye to Bai Junguo and turned around and walked towards him.
Qi Jingchen was a little nervous, very worried that Bai Xiaojiu's emotions would be out of control, and forced himself to think of comforting words, but he couldn't think of anything in a hurry.
His hand squeezed the milk tea tightly, and he didn't come back to his senses until he pinched some of it out of the straw socket and almost spilled it on his body.
Bai Xiaojiu walked up to him with a calm face, seeing that he was so clumsy, he reached out to take the milk tea for him, and smiled, "What's wrong with you?"
"Are you okay?" Qi Jingchen spoke in a very slight voice, as if he was afraid of alarming some sleeping beast, so cautious and tentative.
The fierce beast that was suppressed in Bai Xiaojiu's heart was already completely asleep in the short distance she walked over slowly.
Seeing his concerned and cautious look, his heart warmed, and he handed the milk tea back to him, and the corners of his mouth raised, "What can it be?"
There is a big incident in the family, this kind of thing is second only to divorce, how unbelievable and sluggish she was before.
Now she is as normal as she is, even relaxed.
Qi Jingchen was a little incomprehensible, but it didn't prevent him from seeing that Bai Xiaojiu was really in a normal mood, took a sip of milk tea, swallowed it in one gulp, and showed a bright smile at her, "Are you hungry?
"I want to go to Yang Yang and have a cup of tea in the afternoon in the sun. Why don't you go to her house for a bite to eat near noon? Anyway, there are a lot of good things in her house. ”
Qi Jingchen can probably understand the mood of wanting to talk to a good friend when he encounters something, it seems that women are like this, just like a man who always wants to have a drink when he encounters something.
"Good. Qi Jingchen replied dryly, reaching out to hold her.
The two of them walked quietly for a while holding hands, Qi Jingchen shook the hands held by the two people, "Do you think that men in the world are not good because of this incident?"
When Bai Xiaojiu heard this, he turned his head to look at him in some surprise, and his eyes narrowed slightly with a smile, "Why do you say that?"
Qi Jingchen was silent for a while, and smiled faintly, "Because that's what my mother thinks." ”
His mother, Wu Jingfen, complained to Qi Jingchen almost every day after her husband died, leaving a lot of messes, and men were unreliable.
It wasn't until Qi Jingchen was sent away, and then returned from being discharged from the army, and Wu Jingfen paid off her debts, that she no longer mentioned such a topic.
But this incident left a deep impression on Qi Jingchen's heart, and he always felt that once a woman encountered something particularly serious, she would take a generalization.
"People are different from people. I wouldn't think so. Bai Xiaojiu replied very seriously, paused for a moment before whispering: "I'm just disappointed, I used to think ......"
Qi Jingchen waited for a long time and didn't wait for her next step, turned his head to look at her reddened eyes, and wanted to say something, but he smacked his lips twice, didn't know what to say, and held her hand tightly.
"I'm just disappointed in my dad. Completely disappointed in the marriage, Bai Xiaojiu swallowed this sentence, turned his head and smiled at Qi Jingchen's eyes wide, "I seem to have grown up in one day." It's pretty good, too. ”
I used to feel that my family was happy, and I was the eternal baby in my father's arms.
It wasn't until today that she understood that one day anyone could replace them and become the person next to her father, in this world, what she can believe in is herself, and she will grow up sensible.
You can face many things independently, including what happens.
Bai Xiaojiu's answer soothed Qi Jingchen's somewhat uneasy heart, he was afraid that Bai Xiaojiu would become a person like Wu Jingfen.
Because of one thing, I changed my mind and began to babble and complain.
Even if Bai Xiaojiu would be like this, Qi Jingchen would not dislike her, let alone hate her, but there was a deep fear in his heart.
Bai Xiaojiu didn't know Qi Jingchen's complicated thoughts, and when he thought of the conversation with Bai Junguo just now, he laughed at himself.
sent a text message to Bai Xiaoliu, "I talked to my father. He confessed everything, but also promised to break it off with her. Won't give up on our home. ”
The moment the text message was sent, the self-deprecation on Bai Xiaojiu's face became even heavier, he smiled, took a long breath, turned his head and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Qi Jingchen wanted to know what she was thinking, but she knew very well that when she didn't want to say it, it was useless to ask, so she pretended to answer easily: "Beef rice noodles." I really like to eat your rice noodles here. ”
"I just like rice noodles? What hot pot, dry pot, cold pot, don't like either? I took you to eat steamed vegetables before, and you also said that you liked it. ”
"What I like the most is ...... Eat you. Qi Jingchen leaned into Bai Xiaojiu's ear and whispered, and laughed.
Bai Xiaojiu was amused by him, glared at him, pursed his lips and laughed, feeling the warmth of his fingers, and suddenly felt that it was good that he was still by his side when these things happened.
At least at the moment when she couldn't accept it, and even felt that the sky was going to fall, she had something to rely on.
The two of them decided what to eat, and they ate quickly, and after eating, they walked to the vicinity of Zheng Qing's house and called her again, and it didn't take much time.
At this time, the sun was shining, so that the coolness of late autumn was dispelled by the warmth, and the two of them took off their coats one after another and stood in the shade of the tree waiting for Zheng Qing and Zhang Jueyu.
"It's rare for you to come to me for tea. Fortunately, my family has a holiday today. Zheng Qing was still holding an apple in his hand and was nibbling on it, holding Zhang Jueyu in sportswear in one hand.
"The sun is good. Bai Xiaojiu raised his head to cover the sun as he spoke.
Rongchuan City is like this, even in late autumn and winter, once the sun comes out, it is as warm as spring, even if it is two or three o'clock in the afternoon, it is like the sun at noon.
"There is a teahouse in the alley behind my community, which is not bad. Garden-style, let's go play? I also brought poker, and Hero Kill, can you play?"
Zheng Qing was excited from receiving Bai Xiaojiu's call, and at this moment, he was even more interested when he thought of the four of them playing together.
Bai Xiaojiu let go of Qi Jingchen's hand, walked to Zheng Qing's side and held her, her voice was very soft, "Something happened to my family." ”
These words made Zheng Qing subconsciously let go of Zhang Jueyu, waved at him, and said impatiently: "You men go together." ”
When Zhang Jueyu and Qi Jingchen walked together, handed each other cigarettes, and lit cigarettes, Zheng Qing turned around and asked with some concern, "What's wrong?"
"My dad ......" Bai Xiaojiu laughed as soon as he started, and his laughter was full of disappointment and helplessness.
Zheng Qing chuckled in her heart when she heard these two words, and patiently waited for Bai Xiaojiu's mood to ease, until she heard it from the beginning to the end, shook her other hand fiercely, and slowly let go, took a deep breath, and didn't even know what words to comfort her.
After a while, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you really believe that your father will break off with that woman?"
Bai Xiaojiu laughed, shaking his head while laughing, "How is it possible." I'm not a five-year-old, maybe I'm a five-year-old in my dad's eyes, right?
Speaking of this, she turned her head and smiled at Zheng Qing, but her smile was full of bitterness, "But I can't demolish him." The thing he hurts the most is me, at least to coax me, he still makes some appearances. No matter how much my mom doesn't love me, she's still my own mom. I don't want her to be sad. ”
"I understand, you're just going to remind your dad that you know about it, and you want him to be superficial?" Zheng Qing also sighed heavily, squinting slightly, feeling uncomfortable in his heart, and there was nothing he could do.
Bai Xiaojiu knew that she was feeling sorry for her, so she chuckled comfortingly in her heart, leaned close to her, and gently touched her head with her head, "Don't worry." I'm twenty-five. What don't you understand. ”
It's just that when Bai Xiaoliu told her the truth, she couldn't believe that her father would do such a thing, which made her mind confused.
Before going to find Bai Junguo, Bai Xiaojiu figured it out, she didn't know if it was the first time for her father or the Nth time to do it.
But if he does, he may not be able to turn back easily, after so many years, I don't know when it started.
She is his daughter, the most beloved daughter, even if she can't accept everything he does, she can only help her mother do her best to restrain him.
Use the love that the father gives to his daughter to restrain the father.
Zheng Qing sighed and raised his hand to touch the top of Bai Xiaojiu's head, "Isn't my family also a mess? Even if everyone knows that they don't love each other that much. ”
Bai Xiaojiu knew that the situation in Zheng Qing's family was indeed a mess, and he really responded to the sentence that every family has a difficult scripture.
"I just get it. No matter how disappointed I am, I want our home to be complete. And the only thing I can be thankful about now is that my dad didn't plan to leave the house. And he was willing to put out his energy to coax my mother. ”
Bai Xiaojiu said this, showing a mocking smile, "My mother has always wanted me to marry a good husband and be a housewife. But now look at what happened to her. Out of touch with society, without ego, and can't even keep your happiness in the end?"
"Little Jiu. Don't do this. Zheng Qing could almost feel Bai Xiaojiu's seemingly light and light undercurrent surge, held her hand tightly, and looked back at the two men who were quietly following behind.
Bai Xiaojiu took a deep breath, smiled again, and patted the back of her hand, "It's okay, I don't have anything to do." I ......"
After finishing speaking, the mobile phone text message rang, and Bai Xiaojiu looked down to see that it was a text message from Bai Xiaoliu.
"Mom told me that my dad had said he was going to be busy with engineering tonight, but suddenly he said he was going home and that he wanted to have a good talk. I don't know what Dad said to Mom, but Mom is a lot more stable now. I'll call you again if I have something. It's still the same sentence, go home and accompany your mother. ”
"I see. Bai Xiaojiu replied briefly, turned his head and shook his phone at Zheng Qing, "Look, it's so funny, for the sake of so-called happiness, so the family began to be blind, no matter how disappointed they were." ”
"Xiao Jiu, it's okay. Everything will pass" Zheng Qing knew how much Bai Xiaojiu revered her father, and said countless times that he was the best man in the world, and this blow was enough to make Bai Xiaojiu collapse.
She can still speak so easily now, and her psychological endurance is already very strong.
"yes, everything will pass. Including love ......" Bai Xiaojiu turned his head slightly sideways as he spoke, and glanced at Qi Jingchen behind him.
