Chapter 103: The So-called South Wall (1)
Xia Chenxuan didn't stay long this time, and he was going back to H City in about a week, so he didn't clean up his house, but stayed in a hotel not far from Guan Xue's house. His brain was a little messy last night, plus there was a time difference, he didn't sleep well all night, and he was woken up by Guan Xue's phone call early this morning, Xia Chenxuan was depressed but helpless, so when he just walked out of the hotel door and saw Fang Jun standing at the door, he raised his eyebrows in surprise for about a minute, looking at this, it was obvious that he had been waiting for him for a long time. Thinking of the words he heard last night, Xia Chenxuan didn't know why he always felt inexplicably a little lacking in confidence, he secretly cleared his throat, and was thinking about whether to take the initiative to say hello, but Fang Jun on the other side spoke first.
"Do you have time?"
"How?"
Fang Jun raised his hand and pointed to the coffee shop opposite: "Go in and sit for a while, let's talk." β
Xia Chenxuan glanced at the opposite shop in the direction of his finger, thought about it, and nodded: "Okay." β
After the two sat down, neither of them took the initiative to speak, and it wasn't until the waiter brought the coffee and left that Fang Jun finally spoke: "I heard that you are about to get engaged?"
Xia Chenxuan took the finger of the coffee for a pause, and then took a sip of coffee quietly, before he said "um", which was an answer.
Fang Jun didn't care about his attitude at all, anyway, as long as the answers he heard were the ones he wanted to hear.
"Xiao Ran and I broke up. β
Xia Chenxuan was a little surprised that Fang Jun would tell him this so frankly, glanced at the other party's slightly wry expression, and did not make a sound.
Fang Jun himself didn't expect him to pick up his words, so he continued to speak: "We have been together since the second year of high school, until now, for so many years, our relationship has been very good, although she broke up very resolutely this time, but I still never gave up, after all, I did something wrong at the beginning, I hope I can redeem her and believe that I can do it." However, she told me yesterday that the person she likes now...... It's you ......" Speaking of this, Fang Jun paused, raised his eyes and looked at Xia Chenxuan extremely seriously, "I came today to ask you, Xiao Ran...... Does she have a chance?"
Xia Chenxuan was obviously shocked by Fang Jun's calmness, he originally thought that Fang Jun came to him today to make him more interested and take the initiative to stay away from Xiao Ran, he never thought that he would talk about this, frowning slightly, Xia Chenxuan lowered his head, avoided Fang Jun's somewhat scorching gaze, and asked lightly: "Didn't you already know that I was about to get engaged?"
"Well, I know, but I want to know, if not if you're about to get engaged, you...... Will you like Xiao Ran?"
When Xia Chenxuan heard this, he looked at Fang Jun fixedly for a long time, and suddenly sneered: "Where did there come from so many 'ifs' in this world?" Fang Jun, I haven't seen you for many years, how did you become so naΓ―ve now?"
Contrary to Xia Chenxuan's expectations, Fang Jun neither angrily retorted because of his ridicule, nor did he lose his temper at him, but after his gaze was fixed on his face for a long time, he nodded and said, "I understand, I took the liberty of disturbing him today." With that, he took out the money from his wallet and put it on the table, "I have something to do, let's go first." β
"Well, thank you for the coffee. Xia Chenxuan still had a faint smile on his face, and his tone was gentle, if it weren't for the moment of coldness that flashed when his eyes skimmed over the banknotes on the table, he couldn't see any difference in his mood from before.
Just as he was staring at the coffee cup in front of him, not knowing what to think, Fang Jun, who had already taken a few steps, turned around again and whispered in his ear: "I guessed right, you are indeed not worthy of her now." β
Xia Chenxuan glanced back at him, slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, and replied, "Each other." β
Fang Jun was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then shrugged his shoulders indifferently and didn't speak again, and returned him an extremely bright smile. It wasn't until he left the cafΓ© that the smile on his face slowly faded, he reached out and took out a voice recorder from his pocket, stared at the things in his hand for a long time with a slightly deep gaze, and then slowly put it away and put it back in his pocket.
There was no accident, Xiao Ran, who had been drenched in rain all night, really had a fever the next day. However, fortunately, it was only a low-grade fever, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother didn't see the clue, Xiao Ran woke up and secretly took antipyretics, and after sleeping again, he was already much better.
In the early spring season, the cold is still pressing. After Xiao Ran finished dinner, he wrapped a thick down jacket again, and when he went out, he was still shivering from the cold. Although he knew that Xia Chenxuan would not be able to live here when he came back this time, Xiao Ran couldn't help but walk to this community again, standing on the side of the road and looking at the house he used to be in a daze.
There are so many memories of their past here, the two of them reading books together, cooking together, riding bicycles together, listening to music together...... Even when Xia Chenxuan was separated from her for the first time because of illness, everything seemed to be still vivid, and all the feelings were like yesterday. Since she woke up inexplicably, she has never had a chance to contact him, whether it is because of her indecision or her cowardice, when she has never met, she can still do her best to restrain herself, but after seeing him yesterday, she no longer wants to restrain herself. I really like that person so much, I can't help but want to get close when I see it, take a look at it more, and I want to have it forever and never be separated, how can I still have the reason to restrain myself?!
Besides, two people who obviously love each other deeply, why can one of them live comfortably without remembering anything, and the other should remember unforgettable? Why? Even if he likes someone else now, the world of love is so unjust, why should he ask her to be the person who is upright and polite? Why ?!!! mother, let alone being a junior, even the fifth and sixth old ladies also recognize him!!
After standing for a long time, Xiao Ran raised her hand and dialed Guan Xue's phone, and as soon as she was connected, she said directly without waiting for the other party to speak: "Squad leader, I want Xia Chenxuan's domestic mobile phone number." β
There was silence for a long time, and after a squeak, the phone seemed to be transmitted to another person, and Xiao Ran heard the voice that he had been thinking about day and night coming from inside: "Hey." β
Obviously, I only talked to him last night, but at this moment, it was as if she hadn't heard it for a long time, so she couldn't help but reddened her eyes, raised her head and didn't dare to let the tears slide down, Xiao Ran's slightly hoarse voice opened her mouth in a low voice: "Xia Chenxuan, I like someone, I like it so much that I am almost irrational, you say, what should I do?"
