Chapter Twenty-Four: Some Rejoice and Some Grieve
Ding Xin wanted to slip away, but was forced to keep by Song Ci's sentence "What a coincidence". I had to turn around and say hello to him: "Uh... Why are you here?"
"Ah, isn't there a neighborhood over here? My friend lives there, and he came over for a fun time in the afternoon, and now he's going to take the car back. Song Ci's face was not red and his heart was not beating, although he was very calm, but he was nervous in his heart!
"Do you say that the community on the side refers to XX Garden?" Ding Xin asked.
So here's the problem, Song Ci just lied casually. When he took a taxi, he noticed that there was a neighborhood nearby, but how did he know what kind of community it was? Who knows if Ding Xin deliberately deceived him?
Song Ci decided to change the subject, so he asked rhetorically: "Why are you here?
Ding Xin was stunned when he heard it, but he didn't expect Song Ci to suddenly turn around and ask this. So she said "um" softly, but the hand holding the handle of the umbrella betrayed her nervous heart at the moment. Song Ci saw the change in her mood, and originally just wanted to change the topic, but she didn't expect it to happen. So he hurriedly said: "It's raining heavily, where do you live? I'll send you back, you're not a safe girl." ”
Hearing that she was going to send her home, Ding Xin hurriedly refused: "No need, my home is very close to here, I'll just go back by myself." You should go back early, bye~"
After finishing speaking, he stepped away and was about to leave, but Song Ci followed and said in a hearty voice: "Since you live close, you have to send it even more." Don't worry, I'll send you to the gate of the community and don't go in. ”
After saying this, Ding Xin couldn't say anything, the two of them just walked on the road with umbrellas, and no one spoke.
The rain was a bit heavy and there was already water on the road. Suddenly, a car passed by them quickly, and the moment the splash was made, Song Ci immediately turned sideways and blocked the splash that should have splashed on Ding Xin's body.
All this happened so badly, Ding Xin was thinking all the way about why Song Ci was here, how could it be so coincidental and so on. I didn't pay much attention at all, and by the time I reacted, Song Ci's clothes were already soaked.
Ding Xin was startled, and was about to ask him, but Song Ci asked first: "Are you okay?"
"I didn't ...... It's okay," Ding Xin replied blankly as he looked at the big fool in front of him who was all wet, but asked her if she was okay.
Song Ci breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Whew~ It's good that it didn't splash." ”
"But your clothes are wet...... Go back quickly, or you'll get sick when you catch a cold. Ding Xin urged.
How do you know that Song Ci shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's not too bad to come here, let's go." I'll take you to the door and I'll go back. As he said this, his clothes were dripping non-stop.
Ding Xin didn't speak, nodded, and then the two of them continued to walk silently.
Along the way, Ding Xin quietly glanced at Song Ci from time to time. I didn't pay much attention to it before, and I didn't have much to do with it. Only now did I find out that this tall boy is actually very delicate in his heart.
Unconsciously walked to the door of the community, Ding Xin thought: In the past, when I walked home alone, I always felt that this road was so long and how long it took to go back. But why do you think it's such a short road today?
Ding Xin didn't dare to think about it, she said to Song Ci: "Thank you for sending me, hurry back and take a hot bath, it's best to drink ginger soup again, otherwise you will catch a cold by then......"
Without waiting for Ding Xin to finish speaking, Song Ci smiled at Ding Xin: "It's okay, man." I'm in good physical condition and don't catch a cold. You're so skinny, if you come like this, you're going to catch a cold, right? Go back quickly, take a shower, eat and rest. I'm leaving, bye-bye. ”
Ding Xin had no choice but to nod and say, "Well, bye-bye." Then he watched Song Ci gradually disappear from his field of vision.
After walking through two intersections, Song Ci hurriedly stopped a taxi. As soon as I got in the car, I was excited! Sure enough, there is a price to pay for being handsome, I was soaked all over, and I was cold to death when it blew in bursts! But when I saw the splash of water, I subconsciously went to protect Ding Xin, and fortunately blocked it. Now I just want to get home quickly, take a hot shower and change my clothes.
When Ding Xin arrived home, he found that his mother was at home. So I said hello: "Mom, I'm back." ”
"Well, the meal will be ready soon, you eat first. I'll go out, and your aunt didn't bring an umbrella when she left in the morning, so I'll pick her up later. Mom said to Ding Xin while cooking soup in the kitchen.
"It's okay, I'll go, it's raining too much outside. "Ding Xin can't bear such a heavy rain, and her mother has to go out.
Mom refused, "No, you can rest at home." Your body is weak, hurry up and wash and change your clothes. ”
"Well, okay, then you should slow down on the road~" Seeing her mother say this, Ding Xin had no choice but to compromise.
As soon as he returned to the room, he collapsed on the bed, and the scenes that came to his mind were all about Song Ci. The strange feelings in my heart seem to be unable to hold back anymore after seeing him today. This kind of song remarks really made her very conflicted and tormented.
On the other side, Song Ci went home and quickly took a shower, changed his clothes and lay down, which made him feel much more comfortable. The point is that the more I think about it, the happier I become, and I couldn't help but send a message to Ding Xin, telling her that I had taken a shower when I got home.
After sending the message, I was just about to put down my phone to find a book and wait for Ding Xin's reply while reading, but the phone shook!
Ding Xin: "Okay, have you drunk the ginger soup?"
The moment he saw the news, Song Ci couldn't believe it! Usually this girl only replied after a long time, but what happened today? Finally enlightened? Thinking of this, Song Ci was very happy~ What if you feel a little bitter during this time? Isn't this bitter and sweet!
After being happy, I didn't forget to hurry back to Ding Xin, so as not to disappear again after a while. Although she still said those few words, she always felt that something was starting to change gradually.
Lin Qian still sat on the bay window of the room after eating, looking at the non-stop rain outside through the window, holding a freshly folded umbrella in his hand. I can't help but think of the owner of the umbrella - Lu Ge. However, what Lin Qian didn't know was that the owner of the umbrella would be very melancholy.
Lu Ge finally got off work after a busy afternoon, changed back into his clothes and prepared to go home. When I walked to the door, I saw that the rain was still falling, so I turned around and prepared to get my umbrella. As a result, the umbrella was gone! Lu Ge had to ask his colleagues if anyone had seen his umbrella, and one person who worked with him in the afternoon said, "Is your umbrella black, the one with a very special handle?"
When Lu Ge heard this description, wasn't it his own umbrella, so he hurriedly asked, "Yes, you saw it?"
The man recalled, "Well, it must have been taken by your friend." ”
"Song Ci?" Lu Ge thought about it, only Song Ci had come this afternoon, and he should have taken it.
Lu Ge made a direct phone call. As soon as Song Ci finished chatting with Ding Xin, when he saw Lu Ge calling, he immediately answered: "What's wrong?"
Lu Ge was speechless: "What's wrong with you?
Song Ci remembered that Lin Qian was in a hurry to leave at that time, and when he saw that it was raining outside, he directly lent her the umbrella that Lu Ge had put on the shelf. I originally thought that I would go back to pick him up after seeing Ding Xin in the evening, but I was so happy to chat like this, so I forgot about it...... Cool ......
“emmmm...... I lent your umbrella to Lin Qian, she didn't bring an umbrella......" Song Ci was extremely embarrassed.
Lu Ge thought that Song Ci took his umbrella because he didn't have it, but he borrowed flowers to offer Buddha for a long time, so he complained: "Brother, should you be chasing other girls again, then my umbrella will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, right?"
Song Ci really wanted to vomit out a mouthful of blood, and hurriedly said: "What! The girl I like is not her, it will be raining in the afternoon, so you can't let her go back in the rain, right?"
"Then why don't you lend her your umbrella?" Lu Ge felt that Song Ci's brain circuit was really too strange.
Song Ci said: "Isn't it that I have something to do in the afternoon, I originally planned to come back to pick you up in the evening, but I forgot about it." But don't be in a hurry to complain about me first, I lent her your umbrella, didn't I want to create a chance for you two to meet~"
"......" Lu Ge was completely speechless...... I was too lazy to talk to Song Ci anymore, and the more I talked about it, the more outrageous it became, so I had to hang up the phone and go back in the rain. Although the home is not far away, it can't stand the heavy rain, and when I get home, I am soaked.
"Song Ci, you are really a talented ......" Lu Ge complained fiercely......
