073. You won't be shy, will you
I finally got to the point where Lu Xudong should get home from work, but he hadn't come back yet, I was a little impatient, thinking of his cold message in the morning, and gritting my teeth to resist the urge to call him.
My aunt cooked the rice and came over to call me to eat, and I replied to her without thinking about it: "I'll eat when he comes back!"
"Didn't Mr. Lu call and say that he doesn't need to cook his food?" The aunt was surprised, and then smiled awkwardly: "He said that there was dinner in the evening, and he would come back after dinner! Don't be angry, the little two quarreled at the end of the bed and the ...... at the end of the bed."
My aunt was self-righteous and comforting me. Lu Xudong has been on a business trip for the past few days since she came, and as soon as she came back yesterday, he slept with me in the master bedroom, and my aunt naturally didn't know the real situation between me and him.
I ignored Lu Xudong in the morning, and now Lu Xudong doesn't go home and only tells her but doesn't tell me, she naturally thinks that we are a little couple and have an awkward quarrel.
Thinking that she was found by her mother-in-law, I had to let her misunderstand, and I was stupid, I was nervous when Lu Xudong cared about me, but in fact, he shared the same bed with me, so why didn't he want to hide it from his aunt?
After dinner, my aunt packed up her things and went back when it was time.
I sat on the couch for a while, looking at the wedding photos on the wall, and I just felt irritated.
The clock was already pointing to half past eight, and even though I knew that Lu Xudong couldn't end the meal so early, I still couldn't help but stretch out my ears to listen to the movement in the entrance.
After a while, I couldn't bear it anymore, the room was too quiet, and I was afraid that I would miss the movement outside when I turned on the TV, and I was so conflicted that I felt like a cat's paw scratching.
I felt as if I had gone back to the day of the first cold war with Lu Xudong, thinking that my aunt said that he had a meal, so I simply sent him a message and asked him when he would come back.
After sending it, I hugged my phone and thought, this is enough to be soft, right? I took the initiative twice today!
But after waiting for half an hour, Lu Xudong didn't reply.
I really felt so aggrieved that I glared at my phone hatefully, and my brain was hot, so I couldn't care that I could only jump on one foot, and went out with the key.
The wound was on the heel, not bandaged, in fact, I could occasionally move a few steps on the tip of my toes, I got off the elevator and walked out of the unit door, took a breath of the outside air, and finally felt that the restlessness in my heart had calmed down a little.
There is a faint echo of cheerful music in my ears, it should be that the dancing aunts in the central square of the community are not over yet, I dragged my injured foot slowly to move there, and people passed me by twos and threes, some dragged the family with their mouths, some of the little two held hands, and there were also old sisters who were excited to discuss the short of the parents...... I'm the one who left alone!
A sour and astringent rush came to my heart.
When I was young, I envied that people had fathers, and when I grew up, I longed for a home, but now, the small warm and small happiness that others have at my fingertips is still out of reach for me.
I stood there for a while, sniffed, and finally decided to sit on the bench next to me.
Just moved over, and was about to reach out to remove a fallen leaf on the chair, when someone suddenly slapped him on the back, and a very hilarious voice sounded: "Hi!"
I was startled, and I turned my head sharply and glared at the man who suddenly appeared and roared: "Are you sick at night?"
After yelling, he looked at the familiar face and pursed his lips, a little surprised and embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you......"
I can't complain that I'm embarrassed, the person in front of me is actually the plaid shirt I met at the bar last time!
"It's okay, I scared you first!" I don't know what I did that day when I drank too much, and I didn't care about the plaid shirt when I yelled at me, "I thought I was dazzled, but I didn't expect it to be you! You live here too?"
He looked very happy, sat down in his chair, then looked up at me who was standing stupidly, his gaze froze on my feet for a moment, and then patted the place next to him to signal me to sit down, and asked me in a familiar tone, "Hurt?"
I didn't move, I looked at him with straight eyes, and said quite directly: "We don't seem to know each other too well!"
"Oh?" the person on the other side smiled, and nodded nonchalantly with Erlang's legs crossed and his hands on his chest, "Yes, you probably don't remember my name anymore, do you, Miss Desser?"
He looked up at me again, his eyes shining like stars in the night.
I felt like crying, so I looked up at the sky, and finally discussed with him very seriously: "What, this gentleman ......"
"Zhang Ruiran!" he interrupted me suddenly.
"Huh?" my brain, struggling to organize the language, was a little confused.
"Zhang Ruiran. He repeated it again, with a particularly nonchalant smile on his face.
I finally understood that he was telling me his name, so I laughed dryly, licked my lips and continued: "Okay, Mr. Zhang, I drank too much that night, and I may have said a lot of things that shouldn't be said and done a lot of things that shouldn't be done, but I think you should go to the bar quite often, and you should also understand that the pressure of survival is so great now, and occasionally going to the bar for a drink and a conversation can be regarded as relaxing, you really don't need to be too serious......"
In other words, he really didn't need to come over to set it up.
Zhang Ruiran looked at me and said "oh", I saw that he suddenly realized, thinking that he understood and agreed with what I meant, and was about to put down the big stone in his heart, but he said leisurely: "We are not as simple as having a conversation......"
He raised an eyebrow at me for a long time.
I was speechless, silent for three seconds, I moved over and sat down next to him, and then leaned slightly to look at him: "Let's talk about it!"
"Hey, don't you want to be so serious!" Zhang Ruiran smiled, "Teasing you, why do you look like you're rejecting people, but I've been a loyal listener to you for hours, and you're doing this to me?"
It's a shame that he looks like he has been abandoned by me. I endured it and looked at him seriously: "Mr. Zhang, I'm not joking with you, I'm married and have a husband, I really drank too much at the bar that day......"
"Well, your husband is very handsome!" he interrupted me with a look of regret, "but you seem to say he's gay/sexual, even though he seems to be nice to you." ”
...... "It seems that when Lu Xudong went to the bar to look for me, I was still with him."
I think it makes sense to know myself and the enemy, and the person in front of me, he may have known about me when I was drunk, but I didn't know anything about him.
I asked him a little scared, "You didn't come to me on purpose, did you?"
He spread his hands, "Did I say it was a coincidence that I met your letter?"
Of course I don't believe it, but he doesn't seem to have any reason to lie to me, after all, it's been almost a month, of course, if he is really Lu Xudong's "unsightly" boyfriend, it's hard to say.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhang Ruiran raised his eyebrows and asked, "Which building do you live in?"
I looked at him guardedly: "What are you doing?"
"Hey, not really!" he made a somewhat exaggerated expression of injury, "I treat you as a friend, are you so vigilant?"
I was really defeated by him, "But I really don't know you, Mr. Zhang......"
"You can call me Ruiran. He looked very impatient, "Once raw and twice cooked, you forgot last time you drank too much, this time you didn't drink too much, next time we will be cooked!"
I was speechless again, thought for a while, and asked tentatively, "You won't take a fancy to my husband, will you?"
"You really have faith in your husband. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at me with a slight mockery: "Why don't you think I've taken a fancy to you?"
...... "I don't think Lu Xudong's boyfriend should be like this, at least as a homosexual/sexual/relationship, he shouldn't have such clever flirting skills."
So I decided to get up and leave.
"Hey, if you can't say it's human, you'll run......" Zhang Ruiran caught up reluctantly, "You won't be shy, right?"
I didn't pay attention to him, but my heart was extremely broken and regretted, so I obediently stayed at home because my legs and feet were inconvenient, and I had nothing to do to attract any flies!
"Seriously, I still think you're cuteer when you're drunk. Zhang Ruiran slowed down to match my speed, didn't care about my poker face at all, and chattered to himself: "How did you hurt your feet? How dare you come out by yourself when you are injured like this? What about your husband? Does he still care about you?"
I was so annoyed by his nagging that I stopped where I was, almost begging him, "What the hell do you want to buy?"
"Okay!" he pursed his lips, finally put away his look of hanging children, and said seriously: "Actually, I came to find my aunt, but no one answered after pressing the doorbell for a long time!"
"Then you can call. I was expressionless, "And it has nothing to do with you following me all the time!"
"My phone is out of battery, I was going to find someone to borrow it, but I happened to see you!" he shrugged and held out his hand to me again, "Bring it!"
I was speechless, I had never seen such a reasonable way to borrow a mobile phone, in order to get rid of him as soon as possible, I almost didn't hesitate to take out the mobile phone from my pocket and hand it to him.
He took it with a smile, quickly opened the screen and pressed a string of numbers on it, and the next second, a string of bells sounded on him
I looked at him dumbfounded: "You lied to me?"
"It's not a lie, I'm really here to find my aunt!" a sly smile flashed on his face, and he shoved his phone into my hand, looking satisfied, "Say, which building do you live in, I'll send you back!"
I was really angry with him, and coldly spat out two words, "No!" and continued to walk.
He kindly suggested: "If you don't say it, I will always follow you, anyway, sooner or later I will know, you might as well tell me directly, and save yourself from being annoyed by me all the time!"
"You ......," I froze, "you're really self-aware!"
"Thanks for the compliment!" he looked at me with pride and unscathing.
"Building 20. I had no choice but to compromise, "You can let me go...... Yes!...... Why are you ......?"
