Chapter 6 Talking about Marriage and Caring for 3
Hearing the word "love" at the end, a storm of thinking suddenly blew in Xiaolong's brain. He suddenly had a lot to say to Tian Tian, but when he really wanted to say it, he didn't know which one to say.
"I ......"
"Why are you spitting and spitting? If you have anything to say, you just say it. ”
"I like you. Are you willing to be my girlfriend?" Hearing Tian Tian's encouragement, Xiaolong also mustered up the courage, and said what he wanted to say the most in one breath, without the slightest pause or hesitation.
Tian Tian heard every word very clearly, everything sounded familiar and warm to her, as if Xiaolong was not speaking words but spewing out a fire. The smile gradually covered her entire face, making her look like a blooming snowdrop.
"I—will. As soon as Tian Tian finished speaking, he quickly turned his head, his eyes still staring vertically at the ceiling.
At this time, Xiaolong was extremely excited, and felt that the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling. At this time, he really wanted to pick up Tian Tian and kiss her face wildly, so as to express his endless love for her, but he didn't do so. He just reached into her bed, grabbed one of her jade hands, and gently pulled it in front of his eyes.
Her hands were small, and they looked so delicate that they could be held in the palm of his hand. Her hands were white, not pure white like snowflakes or clotted cream, but white from yellow. Ancient literati always liked to use words such as "jade skin and snow skin" when describing women's skin, but in fact, they lacked deep and detailed consideration, at least such words are often extremely inappropriate to describe Chinese women who are known for their yellow skin.
That kind of white is more like a diamond set on a gold ring, the kind of white with a dazzling light, especially when the light shines, that kind of light will be very dazzling. Her hands are slippery, but definitely not like clotted cream, the kind that is slippery but not greasy. The surface of her hands still carries the heat that emanates from the inside of her body. The heat is neither as hot as fire, nor as pitifully warm as the faint light of a candle.
When you put your hand on her cheek, you will feel a wave of warmth spread quickly to all parts of her body, like a ray of sunshine shining on her body in spring. It is said that Yasusei Kawabata was inspired to create "One Arm" after looking at one of Rodin's sculptures called "Women's Hand" for a long time. Xiaolong also looked at Tian Tian's hand for a long time, although he couldn't write any works, he also had many feelings. The focus of many feelings made him want to get close to her. He kissed the back of her hand softly, like a gentleman.
"I'll be good to you for the rest of my life. ”
Tian Tian once again heard the words that made her feel familiar and warm, and the whole person was intoxicated with infinite sweetness. For a long time, the two of them didn't say anything, just looked at me and I looked at you with affection.
Xiaolong raised his head suddenly, and suddenly saw the pink Christmas gift box placed on the other side of the bed, which was the one he gave to Tian Tian. It was also to break the silence between the two, and also to find something to say, Xiaolong talked to Tian Tian about the Q&A he had with the saleswoman in the supermarket on the afternoon of Christmas Eve. After hearing this, Tian Tian couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"And if it weren't for your Christmas present, I wouldn't have stayed all night, no, for several whole nights, and I didn't get a good night's sleep. ”
"I haven't had a good night's sleep either. ”
"You deserve it. Whoever makes you have something not to say directly to others, but to tell people in a roundabout way. ”
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
Then, Tian Tian told Xiaolong about the nightmares she had these days.
"Stop thinking and sleep well. I will always be with you and will never leave you for a moment. We will be together and live well for the rest of our lives. ”
Xiaolong put Tian Tian's exposed hand outside the quilt back into the quilt again, wrapped the quilt for her, and planned to leave. It's getting late.
As soon as he walked to the door, Xiaolong suddenly turned around again and found that Tian Tian was still tilting his head sideways and his eyes open.
"Sleep. Always crooked his neck, be careful that one day he really becomes a crooked neck, and he can't think about it. At that point, I really don't want you. After saying that, Xiaolong also crooked his neck and grimaced at Tian Tian.
"You dare!" Tian Tian also said in a loud voice.
