XVIII. Segregation

When Yingying arrived at the yarn factory on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, she felt that she said goodbye to the innocent and complaining little girl in the past, although she always had a feeling of inexplicable panic, probably Xiaojun still couldn't let go too much during the Spring Festival, however, she still had Xiao Pan, a man who really liked her. Although Liu Dazhu did not agree to her talking outside from beginning to end, he did not resolutely oppose it, judging from the fact that Liu Dazhu did not resolutely set her a family affair, Yingying was still a little moved in her heart, and her grandmother said to her in private, if you talk outside, it's okay, don't find a very bad one, so that your father can't hold his head up, if you look for it at home, it's very good, we can't do it, Yingying listened and understood in her heart.

When Yingying went to the men's dormitory, she inexplicably felt the teasing eyes of the men, strange, all the male workers basically returned to the factory, why didn't Pan Jinchao come yet? Even Xiao Zhou, who has always had a gentle personality, silently lowered his head and cleaned up the things on the table.

Yingying turned around and attracted the laughter of the group of men behind her, it seems that if there was no Xiao Pan, she would not want to come to this place in one step. "Don't go, sister, Xiao Pan is not here, brother, I'll accompany you!" Yingying walked away and heard Liao Guanghui secretly say behind her back.

Yingying turned her face angrily and glared at Liao Guanghui, who turned his back on his face in the crowd and arrogantly pretended to be a ghost but didn't dare to turn his face, and everyone laughed with him.

Xiao Pan didn't come, Yingying went to Sister Ailing's house to play bored after work, and after dinner, the two sisters walked down the alley, and Ailing's son Xiaohu followed them closely.

"Yingying, have you really talked to Pan Jinchao?" Ailing asked after walking for a while.

"Well......" Yingying listened to it and seemed to respond casually, but in fact, she was quite excited in her heart, since the two broke up in the first year, it has been more than half a month now, and that kind of lovesickness cannot be made up, and there is nowhere to confide.

"—Does my uncle agree?"

Yingying nodded excitedly after hearing this: "...... I told him about the situation, but he didn't say anything,...... Anyway, Xiao Pan will do it one by one according to our rules when the time comes, and I will never embarrass my father!"

"Hey,—— did little Pan Ke tell you about Ge Hong?" Ailing asked suddenly.

"Ge Hong?—— what's the matter with Ge Hong? He didn't tell me, he only said that Ge Hong was his general friend, and nothing else!"

"Oh...... , She has always liked Pan Jinchao, don't let her snatch it with you......" Ailing said and looked at Yingying with a smile, with an unpretentious sophistication in the corners of her eyes.

"No—— Sister Ailing, Xiao Pan didn't mean that......" Yingying said without thinking, and then the corners of her mouth showed a disapproving smile.

"I think I've heard that...... When I went back from vacation, Ge Hong went to look for Xiao Panli again, and I heard that he was drinking medicine and jumping off the building, do you know?"

"I don't know ......"

Yingying has always been an understatement by Sister Ailing, and still didn't take it to heart, she knew what was going on between the two of them, she knew that Pan Jinchao didn't mean that to her, however, a few days passed, Xiao Pan still didn't come, when she went to the guard room to get a hot water bottle, she found that the doorman Master Zhang was talking to someone and always looked at her, she politely turned her head and smiled at him, and when she walked over, she vaguely heard Master Zhang say "Xiao Pan" or something.

Yes, everyone in the factory knows that Xiao Pan likes her, but Brother Xiao Pan! Why don't you come yet? Yingying's heart swept through a faint suspicion, which made people panic. However, originally they said that they would write letters to each other, but the year was complicated and the time was short, although she wrote one in Chinese New Year's Eve, she waited until the second day of the new year, When the third year of junior high school wanted to send it, she felt that she was about to meet again, so she put it in the broken cardboard box and sealed it up, but Xiao Pan never wrote a letter to her, but no one would have thought that he would stay in his hometown for many days, think about it probably because there is something at home, or someone introduced him to the object, and it is not inevitable that he will go on a blind date at home, Sister Ailing said Ge Hong, Yingying thinks it is impossible, there must be someone speculating behind her back, yes, everyone in the factory knows that Xiao Pan likes her and loves her, so why not provoke envy, jealousy and hatredYingying was still thinking sweetly.

However, Xiao Pan finally came back in the next sixteen, Yingying stayed in the factory for ten days, I don't know when Xiao Pan returned to the factory, when Yingying bowed her head in the workshop to do things, as soon as she looked up, she saw a familiar figure fleeting, Yingying was stunned for a moment, and quickly stopped the machine and pretended to go to the toilet to look for it, but she didn't even find a shadow after looking around, I wanted to ask someone! and I was afraid of being laughed at, so I came back in a daze.

When eating in the cafeteria, Yingying glanced at it a few times and had to lower her head in disappointment to eat, and then heard the person next to her say: "Pan Jinchao is back, come back with Ge Hong" "Ge Hong Spring Festival is spent at Pan Jinchao's house, this guy is proud to come back, he walks humming a ......little song" "Good girl! Xiao Zhou said it himself, Pan Jinchao didn't want her, she directly took a knife and went up to the top floor of the fifth floor, and shouted loudly 'Pan Jinchao, I love you!' wanted to jump off the building, wanted to commit suicide, even 110 was alarmed, and finally even the factory leaders were scared, Pan Jinchao was forced to be unable to do so, so he agreed to her. ”

Yingying listened to it and fell into the clouds, almost choked the food in her mouth for a while, she hurriedly picked up the lunch box and left, just walked to the door and bumped into a person, Ge Hong "-hey, ah! you slow down......" Ge Hong seemed to be a little caught off guard by her, the two glanced at each other, and in an instant she raised her head and hummed a little song and left.

Looking at Ge Hong's blatant arrogance of the screaming voice, Yingying turned around and left, and immediately trembled with anger: "No!" Xiao Pan said that he didn't have that kind of love for her, Yingying panicked and walked to the old plane tree near the men's dormitory, and her heart was so panicked that she almost didn't fall on the plane tree, Xiao Pan came, why didn't she come to her, what did they say before the Spring Festival, he changed his hexagram? It is impossible to —— why did he change his hexagram? Forget it, Yingying only hesitated for a moment and decided to turn around and walk back.

At this time, Ge Hong just walked in front of her with a lunch box in one hand, so he turned his head and asked her, "-Who are you looking for?"

When Yingying heard this, she raised her head to meet Ge Hong's aggressive gaze, pretending to be indifferent, but she couldn't help but tremble her lips and said, "Don't look for anyone—— and then turn around and leave.

Ge Hong was stunned for a while when she saw her expression, looked at her back for a while and said in a long voice: "If you want to say something, come and say, don't be too wronged yourself——!"

Yingying kept stubbornly walking forward, and her tears couldn't stop falling.

Back to the dormitory, I saw a few girls snuggling together and quietly talking about something, seeing her come in, I didn't say anything, Yingying pretended to be nothing and went to the bed and lay down, she was lying face in like that, and the tears fell a lot, and then she couldn't help but tremble and "sobbed".

Several girls were all moved when they saw it, and then they only heard the girl who was smiling and screaming Wumin and bluffed: "Ge Hong is really shameless, coaxing Xiao Pan to drink, Pan Jinchao sleeps with Pan Jinchao when he is drunk, Pan Jinchao doesn't want her, she is going to jump off the building to commit suicide, and she stays at someone's house during the Spring Festival, hey-yo! I don't know how Pan Jinchao's family bothered her——"

Wu Min said this, and the girls next to her all spit and scolded Ge Hong, in fact, most of them were also upset for her.

The more Yingying listened, the more sad she became, and she felt that their words not only did not comfort her, but made her even more sad, so she took the pillow and wiped her tears without squeaking, and got up and went out, she needed to find a place where no one was to cry.

Yingying walked towards a quiet place, she thought of the holiday years ago, Xiao Pan told her about the technicians in the factory, Engineers are postponed for two days to go back, because the factory needs to repair the machine, Xiao Pan also sent her to the station on the morning of the twenty-fourth of the year, the two of them said goodbye, Pan Jinchao kissed her so affectionately, everything is still vivid as yesterday, however, I didn't expect that it was those two days, Ge Hong took advantage of the loophole, and walked and walked I don't know when Yingying walked to the old garden platform where Xiao Pan took her The ground cried, at first she was crying forbearantly, and then somehow, she knelt on the garden platform and cried more and more sadly, so I don't know how long I cried, faintly heard a little squirming movement, and turned her head to see Pan Jinchao standing not far away with ruddy eyes looking at her.

After this glance, the two of them almost broke apart, Yingying immediately stopped crying, she knew that there was true love between them, but what if the beautiful and precious thing was destroyed by the demon? it didn't exist, they couldn't go back.

Yingying stood up and left.

At this time, Xiao Pan grabbed one of her arms and said heavily: "You...... Don't do that!"

Yingying was grabbed by him, Fang turned her face to look at him very sadly, and saw that her originally handsome and heartwarming face suddenly became dirty and disgusting, and she pushed him away angrily: "Don't touch me!"

Yingying's rebuke was so resolute, Xiao Pan was completely defeated when he saw her, just like when he saw her for the first time, he knew that she must not be hers, that painful feeling, he let go of his hand.

At that moment, Yingying saw Xiao Pan's expression, she knew that the fault could not be his, but the fault was wrong, what could she do? At that moment, she looked at Xiao Pan's decadent expression and was stunned.

"Well—— forget it! she is so arrogant, she can only be the lover of your dreams——! where is she as lowly as me, willing to wait for you for three years!"

Here, Yingying was so angry that she turned around and left, but as soon as she walked together, Xiao Pan grabbed her again, looked at her, and begged: "Ying, will you listen to me?"

By this time, Yingying was already trembling with anger, she tried hard to break free from Xiao Pan, so as to get rid of the entanglement of the two people in front of her, so she only struggled blindly, but she didn't say a word, and Xiao Pan didn't let go.

"Forget it, let her go! I'm all your people, how can she be nice to you?—— can't we be the three of us, okay?" Ge Hong stood in front of them and still said with a smile, her innate ability to fight in the rivers and lakes.

"-Let go of me—— Yingying couldn't stand Ge Hong's face that was thicker than the corner of the city wall, turned her face and yelled at Xiao Pan, took the opportunity to break free and ran away.

"Get out! Get out of here! I'll never see you again!" Yingying ran away, and Xiao Pan hugged Ge Hong to the ground and roared like crazy.

Ge Hong fell to the ground with an "ouch" sound, and she grinned in pain for a while, but she was still not annoyed when she spoke: "You are so strong, do you want to fall to death so that I can find her?" Her pair of small slitted eyes and the slightly raised corners of her mouth always give people a playful feeling of being undefeated and discouraged, which makes people annoyed.

Ge Hong's ability is really home, the people in the factory see it every day, and they are quietly discussing it every day, although Xiao Pan doesn't care about her, she can still be cheeky to do this and that for Xiao Pan, three meals a day, she took the initiative to send Xiao Pan to the bedside in advance, Xiao Pan's clothes she couldn't help but take the initiative to help him wash them, and Pan Jinchao is like a ghost who has lost his soul every day, and he can't find the kind of spirit and wit he is with Liu Yingying, he just let Ge Hong do things boldly and recklessly, and let the people in the factory Xuanxuan shout and talk about him, he turned a deaf ear, If Ge Hong used to be so bold and proactive, but now she is more aggressive, and she is more home, she is helping Xiao Pan wash her clothes, while flirting with others, Liao Guanghui stood in front of her and shook Erlang's legs and asked with a smile: "Ge Hong, what kind of kung fu did you use to seduce Xiao Pan?" Ge Hong raised her head with a smile when she heard this, and looked at Liao Guanghui with her charming little confused eyes and said: "That kung fu is amazing, make sure you men are one by one, don't believe you to ask him!" Everyone laughed when they heard it, "I think you did some kind of work to rape Xiao Pan?—— hahaha......" Liao Guanghui said and jumped and bounced away. Ge Hong listened to the help, pulled up the wet clothes in the basin and threw them at Liao Guanghui. "Come on—— don't run, I'll rape you today—" Ge Hong said viciously, and for a moment the two of them were arguing in the courtyard.

And Yingying is like a fallen leaf wrapped in the autumn wind all day long, and she has no idea for a while, no direction, she just hides in a corner where no one is there all day and cries quietly, and only goes back to the dormitory to rest when she is tired of crying, and she doesn't talk to people, she doesn't interact with people, she sees Pan Jinchao is also languishing all day long, and her eyes are full of sadness when she sees him. Since that evening, he no longer came to her, just wanted to exchange for Yingying's forgiveness through his inexpressible guilt, he was not afraid of Ge Hong's soft entanglement, mainly Ge Hong took advantage of his momentary mistakes and wanted to hold on, she knew that Yingying was a girl who was icy and jade, he didn't care, but Yingying cared about this, so he never had the courage to come to her again, and in Yingying's opinion, the two of them had talked before, and now they were like that again, not to mention that every day someone always revealed a little bit of their news to her, intentionally or unintentionally, so she thought sadly, what a fragile bullshit love, I don't want to fall in love with him againTo hell with it all!

Just when Ge Hong was secretly proud and secretly wondered if the two were really broken off like this, Xiao Pan finally went to find Liu Yingying, although she followed Xiao Pan every day and pestered Xiao Pan, in fact, she didn't know whether Xiao Pan wanted her or not, but she just loved Xiao Pan, even if she couldn't get it, even if she was cheap, but as long as she could get a little bit, she was also complacent, so one day after work, she found that Xiao Pan walked into the conference room next to the door of the workshop a little abnormally, and Ge Hong followed in.

"Why are you coming in?" Xiao Pan turned his face and asked her impatiently.

"I'm having a meeting with you!" Ge Hong sat down on the chair next to Xiao Pan with a smile, and said with a smile as she looked at Xiao Pan with her cheeks up.

"Ge Hong, as a girl, are we a little good-looking?" Xiao Pan said impatiently again, "I don't think I owe you anything!"

"No, I owe you! I owe you in my last life, so in this life, I have given you all my heart, liver, and everything, but you still don't appreciate it!" Ge Hong's expression became serious as she spoke, she looked at Xiao Pan, and her eyes rolled down three or two strings of tears without knowing whether it was true or fake.

Xiao Pan glanced at her, immediately got up and left, and said angrily: "How can I meet a woman like you!"

Xiao Pan went to find Liu Yingying in a huff, she had to give her an explanation, it had been several days, he couldn't sink into such a deep self-blame, and he rushed into the women's dormitory with this impulsiveness.

However, as soon as he rushed into the door of the dormitory, he stopped, he saw Yingying lying quietly on the bed alone, face in, the other girls in the dormitory were stunned when they saw him, and when he looked at Yingying's obviously emaciated and thin figure, he heard Xu Wumin shout softly, "Liu Yingying——!"

Yingying quietly turned her face when she heard this, and saw Pan Jinchao standing at the door, and the two looked at each other for a while, but it was as if half a century had passed.

"What are you doing here?" Yingying said coldly, her face turning.

"Come and see you......" Xiao Pan said affectionately looking at her back.

"Look at what I'm doing, she takes care of you so well......" Yingying said coldly, still with her face turned inward, and when she said this, she thought that she was probably one of those sad and conceited women in ancient novels!

Xiao Pan behind him didn't squeak, and after a while he asked, "This period of time,...... You're alright!"

"What's so good or bad—— what's your business if it's good or not?" Yingying was still resentful.

"You scold me, I feel better if you scold me, I should scold ...... anyway" Xiao Pan said and walked over, his tone slowly lowered.

As soon as he said this, Yingying stopped squeaking all of a sudden, yes, even if there were many grievances and blows in the past few days, as long as Xiao Pan still loved her ...... deeply.

"Bang bang......" There was a sound of knocking on the door panel, Xiao Pan looked back in disbelief, only to see Ge Hong leaning on the door panel of the dormitory with a slight smile calmly, one hand still clasped on the door panel in a chic manner, Yingying also turned her face to look at Ge Hong in surprise at this time, and turned her head away with disdain after this glance.

Then Xiao Pan turned back and roared at her: "Ge Hong, I admit that I did wrong, I beg you to let me go, okay?!——"

Ge Hong still didn't change her face and didn't pant when she heard this, she still walked in with a smile and closed the door gently, and there were only three of them left in the room at this time.

Ge Hong first glanced at Pan Jinchao with disgust, and then glanced at Liu Yingying who was lying on the bed, and said slowly: "The relationship between the three of us has to be well sorted out, cleared, and deepened before we can speak—I admit it! You like her and love her, but don't forget, I was in front of her, have you ever heard of "preconceived" hehehe-I don't need me to say this, right? All your first times are given to you by me, are you like this? It doesn't matter if you abandon me like a broom, Pan Jinchao will one day find out how much I have paid for you-" Ge Hong said and stared at Pan Jinchao with two eyes, and his eyes seemed to be filled with endless bottomless things.

Yingying didn't bother to listen to her, but then she heard her choked throat turn her face, and saw Ge Hong's rare sincere expression, Xiao Pan also lowered her head and said nothing, and then said: "In this case, you can go back and say! I still have to sleep!" After saying that, she turned her head again.

However, Xiao Pan didn't leave, and neither did Ge Hong, and after a while, Xiao Pan yelled at Ge Hong again: "You go out!"

"I'm not leaving!" Ge Hong said as he looked at Xiao Pan and pouted aggrievedly.

"Get out—go!" Xiao Pan suddenly roared at Ge Hong, and the bruises on his face were exposed for a while, Ge Hong looked at Xiao Pan's unprecedented expression that suddenly became crazy in shock, and then he was frightened, and retreated to the door, opened the door and went out.

However, Ge Hong just walked out of the room in embarrassment but deliberately left the door open, at that time there were people outside the door who were looking in, Xiao Pan and Yingying stayed relatively quietly for a while, Yingying's tears rolled down, but she didn't want Xiao Pan to see it, just lying quietly and motionless, letting the tears fall down her cheeks, Xiao Pan lowered his head and leaned against the bed frame opposite, and then both of them knew that even such an unbearable moment would not be there in the next moment and the next second

"You really decided...... Can't you turn back?" Xiao Pan finally asked, his voice was choked, he knew that he didn't have a little strength to ask this, which meant that he had set the ending, and this ending seemed to have been doomed a long time ago, how could there be such a beautiful thing in the world, such a beautiful person, even if there were, how could I catch it, from the beginning he knew that she must not be his, even if he held it in the palm of his hand, he was still frightened and panicked, at this moment, the dust finally settled.

Yingying still lay motionless, and after being silent for a while, she slowly sat up on the bed, and then put one arm on the table next to her, and said in a down-to-earth voice: "...... I'm an unlucky person, I've been unlucky since birth, and then everything I ......do is a failure!" Yingying couldn't help herself when she said about the injury, and tears still flowed down, "She is a very strong person, more suitable for you than me, at least I can see that she really cares about you...... Cherish her!"

Xiao Pan listened to her, only looked at her dementedly, anyway, sad and desperate at this moment, he had entered numbness, and he didn't feel anything, so he didn't have to say a lot of words, he just said: "If you insist on this...... I won't say anything, I just hope that you can find someone who is better than me and ——......! more understanding of cherishing you in the future!"

The more Yingying heard this, the more she was hurt, the more tears fell like a curtain of rain, Fang closed her eyes and said hard: "Yes...... I hope we will all be happy in the future!" she said words of encouragement, but she said them with great sadness.

"If that's the case, then I'll leave tomorrow!" Xiao Pan also said in despair.

"Where are you ?——going to leave tomorrow?" Yingying asked in surprise, "Didn't you become an engineer after the New Year?"

Xiao Pan shook his head sadly when he heard this, and said: "Those don't matter anymore! I have been in this factory for three years, and I have also handed over my youth, dreams, and enthusiasm here!", Speaking of this, he raised his confused eyes to look, and his voice was already choked, "I didn't expect such an ending, I don't know if it's because of you, or my own mistakes...... I shouldn't like you, fall in love with you......" Xiao Pan raised his half-drooping eyelids to look at Yingying, this glance made him more and more sad and desperate, in this sudden gaze, he raised a hand, looked at the ring on his hand and smiled helplessly, and finally made up his mind to turn around and leave. Yingying kept her head sobbing but didn't notice his action.

However, just as he strode to the door, he turned his head to look at Yingying for the last time, and Yingying also looked at him in a daze, so after the two of them looked at him so decisively for the last time, Xiao Pan disappeared at the door of the dormitory.

In the dormitory, Yingying's face was pale and desperate, and it took a long time to cry, and people at the door of the dormitory were visited from time to time.
