Chapter 7 Bloody Dogs
"Peng Lai, don't get me wrong, you ...... just now"
I finally managed to find my center of gravity and stand up straight, and after a "snap" sound, my face was hot and painful. Looking at Meng Hangqing's surprised expression and Peng Lai's hand still in the air, I was slapped without warning?
This is the first time I've been slapped, and I don't have much experience, so should I just slap her backhand?
"What did I misunderstand? You want to be ashamed! You actually seduced my husband!"
Before I could interject, Sister Sisi's voice came from behind me: "I said this sister, why are you talking so ugly! Who can seduce him! I know that there is a tigress at home, it's too late to hide!"
"Brother Qing, are you going to let this old woman scold me?" she was annoyed and angry, her face was about to explode, and the image of everyone who pretended to be a lady on weekdays was also thrown away. She shook Lao Meng's arm and wanted to take a step back to find a backer, but what the consequences of provoking Sister Sisi were, we know very well.
Sister Sisi couldn't help but rush up when she heard this, if Ah Cai and Xiaoxiao hadn't come back to help me stop me, I'm afraid Peng Lai's hair would have been bald. Peng Lai also looked eager to step forward to fight, but his hand kept dragging Lao Meng and did not let go.
"Who is old? His #'s husband is half a year older than me!"
Lao Meng pushed down Peng Lai's arm wrapped around him, and his tone was low, an octave away from his normally angry bass: "Lailai, don't talk to my sisters, it's not big or small." ”
"Who's he# is her sister! I'm her grandmother! I dare to hit someone without looking at whose territory it is!"
"What?" Ah Cai turned back to look at Xiaoxiao, and they both looked at the half of my face that I estimated still had a slap print. Almost at the same time, Sister Sisi was scattered, "It's against you!"
Ah Cai didn't care about the short skirt she was wearing, and she was about to go to war.
"Brother Cheng! Zhaoyang, come here!"
Seeing that I couldn't stop it alone, I hurriedly called for help. At this time, the arrogant Peng Lai didn't try to do it, but he still scolded in his mouth, to the effect that he was nothing more than "seducing my husband and beating her deservedly".
"What's wrong?
"Senior, this shrew beats the fawn, look at the fawn's face!"
Ah Cai sued quite quickly, but I didn't want to embarrass them in this situation.
"Stop these two quickly, Xiaoxiao, you can also help me stop them!"
Xiaoxiao shook her head and glared at Peng Lai fiercely, Xiaoxiao was rarely angry, but she couldn't persuade anyone when she was angry.
It is estimated that Peng Lai thought that these were Lao Meng's friends who would help him, so he began to spread wild again, rushing forward hard, Lao Meng pulled her hard, but he didn't say a word, and his face stinked as if someone else owed him money.
I could only ask Cheng Ye and Zhaoyang for help, and after looking at Brother Long who was thrown on the grass outside by them, I could only hope that they could work together to hold Sister Sisi.
"Fawn, let me look at your face. Zhaoyang asked Cheng Ye to wait, and walked over to take a look.
My face is now like Picasso's paintings, each of which I admire, and the expressions I have to admire are all dying.
Zhaoyang waved his hand at Cheng Ye and said to Lao Meng: "Lao Meng, can you take care of your daughter-in-law!"
Cheng Ye also shouted: "Come on, Xiaolu, don't pull it." ”
"Brothers, how do you talk? She took my husband's hand, didn't she seduce my husband?"
"I told you, I fell and he helped me up, can you stop thinking about it, isn't it messy enough? Or should I just let go?" I pretended to let go of Sister Sisi, and Peng Lai took a step back in fright.
"Xiaolu, did you fall?" Zhaoyang looked me up and down, probably looking for injuries.
"Sister-in-law, don't think about it! Hurry up, let Xiaolu return the slap to you, hurry up and go home with my brother!"
"Brother Cheng Ye, how do you speak!" Peng Lai stomped his foot angrily, "Brother Qing, you have something to say!"
"Smack"...... Everyone was stunned, and they could only see Peng Lai covering his face with round eyes, and no one even saw where Kevin came from.
"Woo...... You ......"
I let go of my hand and everyone was silent.
"Who are you? Why are you beating me? Brother Qing ......"
Kevin walked to the table unhurriedly under our gaze, took a tissue and wiped his hands, turned around and flashed his long eyelashes and said, "I'm sorry that my hands are wet just after I went to the toilet, I guess it hurts." Let me explain to you that I am the younger brother of this sister you beaten, and because you beat my sister, I will give it back to you. Do you have any questions?"
Everyone was still stunned, and even Meng Hangqing, who had always been calm, opened his mouth slightly.
"How can you hit a woman!"
"I'm sorry, I'm still underage, so I'm a child, you're a woman, and you're a vulnerable group, so it's appropriate to hit you. ”
"You...... You...... That...... Is that...... She's at fault first, I'll hit her!
"Oh! that's funny. Did you see my sister holding his hand?"
"Yes!"
Kevin tugged at Peng Lai's hand covering his face, and Peng Lai pulled it back like an electric shock.
We were even more stunned and speechless.
"That's it, if your husband is okay, what you should see is that he is quickly withdrawing his hand, and waiting for you to come over from the door and see it?" I came over anyway and saw my sister pulling her hand out, so if you want to beat me, you shouldn't hit my sister, but you should ......" Kevin said and the corners of his mouth rose, and he slowly raised his hand to move towards Lao Meng, looking at Peng Lai evilly and said, "This sister, do you need me to help you out of this breath?"
"What are you doing!" Peng Lai squeezed Kevin's hand down.
"Is it enough to be embarrassed?" Lao Meng, who had been silent, said in his lower octave voice, "Cheng Ye Zhaoyang, you send Feilong back, I'll go first." ”
After that, he shook off Peng Lai's arm and turned to leave, took a step and suddenly turned back and said, "Zhaoyang, I'm sorry, please have a good meal another day." ”
"I'm sorry what, don't you just send the flying dragon home, yin and yang weird ......"
None of us who knew about it dared to look directly into Zhaoyang's eyes. Sister Sisi waved her fist at Peng Lai.
"You ...... You're waiting for me!"
"Dry beautiful Kevin, what do you want to eat, Sister Ming'er will buy it for you!" Sister Sisi and Ah Cai Xiaoxiao circled Kevin and were full of praise.
Cheng Ye patted Zhaoyang's shoulder meaningfully and said, "Let's go, let's carry the flying dragon to the backyard Sisi lunch rest house, this goods is dead, we won't waste it when we carry it home?"
"Agreed!"
I was left to sit on the couch with my legs limp, and I took a cold beer from the floor and covered it in my face.
In fact, in the confrontation just now, I was a little lacking in confidence, after all, when Lao Meng held my hand, I don't know if it was because the wound on my hand was found and I felt ashamed, or because I couldn't let go of him after all, my heart was beating hard......
Sister Sisi looked at me worriedly and asked, "Xiaolu, can you drive?"
"No, I'll do it. Kevin said as he snatched the key from me.
"Child, do you have a certificate?"
"Official age 20, documented. ”
Shocked at him again......
"Xiaoxiao, are you okay to go back so late?" I was a little worried that Xiaoxiao would be scolded by her parents when she went back at this time.
"It's okay, my parents aren't home today. ”
"Yes, the amount of information is a bit large today, kid, you go back and digest it well, pay attention to safety, and take care of your sister." ”
As soon as I closed the door, I felt like the world was quiet, and Kevin didn't say a word all the way.
"You sit here and wait. ”
"Huh?"
"Ahh
Kevin turned around and went into the house, and after a while he came out with a bag. Pulled out a bunch of sterilized and bandaged things from inside.
"Turn around!"
"How can you be so fierce to your sister!" I turned my face obediently, although I said it.
He turned on his phone's flashlight and shone it carefully, pulled out a ball of alcohol and wiped it on my face.
"Oops!
"Don't move!" he grabbed me and wiped it on my face, making me shiver with pain, "That woman has a ring on her hand and scratches your face!"
"Huh?" I thought to myself, no wonder it hurts.
"Ahh
"Who did you learn this from?"
"You care about me! I learned everything by watching TV in two days. He looked at me fiercely and said, "Don't move!"
"What are you ...... murder?"
"My dear sister, can you have a snack...... It's so worry-free......"
I pushed my finger against his head and pushed back: "How can I be so uneasy, I'm not stupid at all, okay, you look at today's killing game, you have all lost, and I have always won." After speaking, he couldn't help but smile proudly.
Kevin took an ointment and applied it vigorously to my face.
"Oops...... It hurts ......."
"I think you're so stupid! You think you're winning because you're smart?"
"Or else?"
"As soon as they said they wanted to drink, I was afraid that you would vomit on my bed again, and I threw away the quilt cover from last time, and the new one hasn't been done yet!"
"Huh?"
"How dare I let you lose, I knew who was the killer in each game, and I was always careful that I was afraid that you would lose and drink. ”
As soon as Kevin said that, my mind began to flash through what he had said tonight.
"I think Brother Xue may be a person with status"
"I don't think Brother Meng is a killer, every time someone points out him, he will point the finger at others. ”
"My sister must be a killer. No reason, it feels ......"
It's strange that every time he finishes speaking, everyone's opinion will be very unanimous and point the finger at one person.
I looked at him in amazement and asked, "How do you know who everyone is?"
"I didn't plan to memorize the cards after the first hand, but they said they wanted to drink, so I had to memorize the position of each card. ”
"Wait......" I stepped back and asked in disbelief, "Sister Sisi shuffled so many cards, and there were 7 cards, how do you remember?"
"There are seven cards in total, and you can't shuffle much. ”
I gave a silent thumbs up, and he proceeded to apply ointment to my face.
"I'm not stupid, I just didn't react, I was thinking about whether I should fight back, but ...... First experience...... Not very experienced...... "I silently admit in my heart that Kevin's genius setting, for some reason I am still a little ashamed.
Kevin put the ointment back in his bag and turned off his phone flashlight as he said, "What's the matter with those scars on your hands?"
I don't know if it's because of embarrassment or because of injury, my face is hot.
"How long have you been standing there watching......"
"It starts when you trip over a stool. He took my hand up again and looked at it, "knuckles...... You're not going to masochize yourself......"
I pulled my hand back and scratched my head, a little embarrassed, after all, I didn't want to mention such a shameful thing: "This is actually a bit complicated...... Didn't I tell you last time that I fell into the snow, and then I got frostbite in some places on my body? I accidentally got chilblains on my hands...... I didn't care...... Then accidentally smashed the wall into the hand...... Anyway, for a series of reasons!"
I pointed to the scars on the four knuckles of my right hand to show him.
"I understand. It's that you get chilblains, and the sores break, and you get angry and go to the wall, and then you get infected, and then you keep masochizing and leave scars."
I was about to hit his hand frozen in mid-air, and he guessed it all...... Seeing what he was rummaging through his bag, I hurriedly withdrew my hand.
"My stupid sister, why bother! I think that Brother Xue is quite reliable, more reliable than Meng Hangqing. ”
"Yo! Who just took a bite of Brother Meng, and now changed his words?" I finally found a reason to hit him, and flicked it on his head.
"You ......" he covered his head and looked at me, with an expression of a dog biting Lu Dongbin, "I'll tell you seriously, does Brother Xue have a girlfriend? ”
"What do you know about you little brat! Xue Zhaoyang is obviously the kind of 'brother is like siblings, and women are like clothes', or not. I may leave you down at any time for the sake of my brother. What's more, I was dumped for more than a year before I got along with Yang Zhou, and I didn't see him say anything. What man in this world would wait for you for so many years?
Although I said it in a joking tone, I couldn't help but think of the scene that day.
The seven of them, known as the "Seven of Managers" and me, sat at the long table at the bar. Almost exactly the same as today, opposite me was Zhaoyang, diagonally opposite Lao Meng. When the game lost and asked Lao Meng to be honest, he opened his mouth and said that he liked me, and I thought he was joking, and I was still wondering if he chose to actually take a big adventure, deliberately teasing us. Until Zhaoyang, he asked him very seriously: "Old Meng, are you serious?"
"It really can't be more real!"
"Come, let's go first!" Zhaoyang said, raising his glass and shouting.
Everyone drank it all, and Brother Long's expression was particularly strange, but I just thought that he didn't like to drink foreign wine.
Zhaoyang poured wine for everyone, and suddenly looked up and asked me, "Xiaolu, can you give me a word?" ”
"I ......" his face burned in a panic, and it is estimated that the excited expression at that time could not be concealed at all.
"Yo Yo Yo Yo! Look at the expression of the little deer, I still need to say!"
"That's it. ”
The three sisters were coaxing on the side, and I nodded slightly.
"Come on, come on, let's go!"
"Zhaoyang, what are you doing again?"
"It has to be done!" Zhaoyang raised his glass again and drank it down.
If I hadn't talked about it today, I would never have known that Zhaoyang used to have the heart, and I always thought that he was a fellow countryman, so he took care of me. And he worked hard to meet me for two semesters, and gave up for Meng Hangqing. His good brothers are not only Lao Meng, but also Cheng Ye, Brother Long, and so on...... If we were really together, I don't know how many times I would have left me for my brother. I didn't blame myself for a few minutes, and then I accidentally started thinking about it......
When Kevin heard this, he was already laughing and leaning back.
I pushed him with all my might, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Sister, I found that you think about everything quite thoroughly except for that Meng Hangqing. ”
I looked at him, wanting to refute it, but I realized that he was right.
"And sister, there are also that kind of infatuated men in the world! Don't say wait for a few years, ten years, decades!"
"I don't believe it!"
Kevin raised his chin as if he wanted to show off something, and suddenly retracted it, shrugging his shoulders as if signaling that his conversation was over. pouted and said, "I didn't have a little resentment towards him when I was beaten today?"
"Who do you hate? Hate Meng Hangqing?" I stretched out my hand to look at it, feeling a few bright reflections of scars, "He has been hating, and he is tired of hating." In fact, I hate myself for being stupid more than I hate him. Do you hate his wife?" Looking at Kevin's nodding, I couldn't help but shake my head, "What do you hate her for?" Say she seduced my boyfriend? A slap didn't make a sound, Meng Hangqing was abducted, it must be his own will that dominated, he said very clearly when he broke up, that is, he fell in love with Peng Lai's father and could help him rise to prominence. This is not forced marriage in ancient times, now it is all free will, he loves power and does not love me, and no one can keep it. Peng Lai beat me today, and there is nothing to hate. Who doesn't get angry when he sees his husband holding another woman's hand? And you also helped me call back, just turn the page. ”
"Tut-tut......" Kevin shook his head vigorously and said, "Sister, are you God?"
"What?"
"I find that you always like to look at things from God's point of view, especially afraid that others will be wronged, and you see everything like your own people, impartial, especially God!"
"Hey!" I knocked on his head, "you're hurting me again, you're calling me a." ”
"But sister, then again, although you said such a god's perspective, it's not that you can't let go?" Kevin probably saw the look in my eyes that I wanted to escape, "Don't admit it, I saw it, he grabbed your hand, your face was red and white, not calm at all." ”
I looked at the scars on my hands again, which I kept to remind myself not to be stupid, but they didn't seem to work: "Kevin, no matter how thoroughly you see the problem, the human heart is not easy to grasp, and I am not strong enough to control my heart." All I can do is not provoke him, stay away from him, this is a moral constraint...... But for almost five years I put my heart and soul into the feelings that made me let go...... It could take three years, five years, or even ....... Decade...... Twenty years ......"
We were suddenly quiet, and even the sound of the wind blowing the leaves was real.
After about half a minute of silence, Kevin began rummaging through his bag again, and found a small glass jar and stuffed it in my hand.
"This is a particularly good scar removal medicine that the locals made themselves when I was in Venezuela, you rub it on your hands every day before going to bed, don't let it see the light, wipe it for a month, and the scar will go down. ”
I carefully studied the jar in my hand, Kevin stood up and patted my head, and said in a calm voice like an adult: "The scar on my hand can be erased, but the scar in my heart, I can't help you." ”
With that, he turned and went to take a shower, leaving me to sit alone, tears streaming down my face......
