Chapter 18 Trying to Untie the Knot
Xu Xingkong dreamed again, in the dream Xu Xingkong dreamed that he had become a night owl, flying over the field under the moonlit night, flying over the brightly lit city. Silently gliding through the cold and pungent air, quietly looking for their prey, not rats and snakes, but people!
Xu Xingkong's heart was full of fear, but fear couldn't change anything, and he couldn't control the body that could fly freely.
Since he couldn't change anything, Xu Xingkong could only hold back his fear and dizziness and enjoy the feeling of flying freely.
Until this body began to dive uncontrollably, and the object of his dive turned out to be a person, a woman, a woman with a blue-black halo on her body.
The lonely and independent figure raised his head consciously, although it was still far away, Xu Xingkong was shocked to find that the woman was Lu Qianqian.
Xu Xingkong could clearly see the surprise and fear in Lu Qianqian's eyes, Xu Xingkong was shocked, he could no longer tolerate his drift, he resisted desperately, trying to stop the body that was rushing down, but his efforts were useless.
Seeing that the distance was approaching at a rapid pace, in a hurry, Xu Xingkong moved and frantically shifted his body a little, but until the end, Xu Xingkong could not completely avoid Lu Qianqian.
Under Lu Qianqian's desperate gaze, Xu Xingkong felt that he violently hit a soft and warm body, and then pierced it, bringing up a canopy of blood rain at the same time, it also took away a blue-black, condensed halo, Xu Xingkong was extremely frightened and angry, and inexplicably knew that the halo was Lu Qianqian's soul.
Damn! Xu Xingkong suddenly understood why this night owl was called the Soul Eater Night Stalker, it turned out that it was actually feeding on souls.
Xu Xingkong felt incomparably painful and angry in his heart, and his chest seemed to be filled with a scorching completely boiling thing, which swelled so much that his whole body was about to explode, and this shareholder kept expanding and expanding, and then, violently erupted from his throat, like an angry volcano, turning into a heart-rending roar.
"Ah......h
This roar completely pulled Xu Xingkong out of the nightmare.
Xu Xingkong opened his eyes suddenly, and it took a while to recover from his extreme excitement.
"Knock knock...... You are in estrus, so scared that Lao Tzu almost wilted. ”
Xu Xingkong was stunned, and then laughed dumbly.
"Who told you to sing every night, don't be noisy, it's early to wilt. ”
"Damn! Sleep on you. ”
Xu Xingkong grinned silently, looking at the ceiling in the dark, the cracks on the lime were like a strange and mysterious pattern, and there seemed to be a hint of inexplicable intimacy.
Is that what it's like to be human? If so, it's good.
Xu Xingkong shook his head vigorously, his head was in the water, he would have such a wonderful thought, he was not a human, could he really become a spirit-eating night owl?
Trembling unconsciously, Xu Xingkong pulled the quilt on his body upward, and carefully made a quilt, trying to drive away the slightest chill oozing from the bones
The winter rains, which had been lingering for almost two weeks, had finally come to an end, and the long-lost sunshine had re-warmed the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, and the clear blue sky seemed to be brighter after many days.
Xu Xingkong retracted his gaze looking up at the sky, took a deep breath, and felt that the sullen atmosphere accumulated during this time seemed to be dispelled a lot by the warm sunshine, but when he saw Lu Qianqian, who walked into the pantry with a teacup, his mood that had just improved suddenly became depressed again.
Lu Qianqian saw Xu Xingkong who was holding a teacup to warm his hands and bask in the sun, smiled reluctantly, and immediately turned around and left, which made Xu Xingkong even more depressed.
Xu Xingkong thought about it and took out his mobile phone, sent a message to Lu Qianqian, and asked her to go to the leisure area on the top of the podium to meet her, and after waiting for a while, Lu Qianqian replied with the word 'good'.
In fact, Xu Xingkong didn't know what he wanted to say to Lu Qianqian, but every day seeing the halo on Lu Qianqian's body constantly blackening, Xu Xingkong felt that he had to do something, otherwise, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, in He Jingyuan's words, Xu Xingkong was a slut.
Although the sun is shining, the location of the open-air recreation area is high, and the wind is still quite strong, Lu Qianqian will be blown back behind her ears by the scattered and flying broken hair, but after a few seconds, she will be blown up by the wind again, like a naughty child, Lu Qianqian had to tuck her hair back again, and keep repeating this action.
To be honest, this action is very feminine, maybe Lu Qianqian was born with how to play the softness of women, or she secretly studied this problem.
But the better Lu Qianqian's appearance, the more uncomfortable Xu Xingkong felt in his heart, if a weed was arched by a pig, it is estimated that no one would say anything, but the more beautiful the destroyed flower, the more unwilling people must be in their hearts, this is purely human nature, and it has nothing to do with feelings and love.
"That Lu Qianqian, what I said that day"
Lu Qianqian showed a somewhat reluctant smile at Xu Xingkong, interrupted Xu Xingkong without waiting for him to finish speaking, and replied a little faster:
"I've thought about it carefully, what you said does make sense, and I understand your hard work, but some things are not so simple, how to say this, everyone's situation may be different, I'm sorry, but thank you, really. ”
Xu Xingkong squeezed out a dry smile, shook his head and avoided Lu Qianqian's eyes that looked a little uncomfortable, and said as if talking to himself:
"I know, I'm just taking it for granted, I didn't consider your actual situation at all, I'm sorry, that's actually"
Lu Qianqian looked at Xu Xingkong, who was a little at a loss, and suddenly laughed, Xu Xingkong was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Qianqian who was smiling in surprise, and finally grinned when she saw her still clear eyes.
Xu Xingkong waved his hand and said, "Am I stupid? You know, I'm just an otaku, and being sophisticated is a very heavy and difficult thing for me, which makes you embarrassed." ”
"No, really. ”
Lu Qianqian shook her head with a smile, and once again curled her flying hair back, gently saying goodbye to her ears, Xu Xingkong looked at it lightly, and felt that this picture was like a very beautiful scenery.
"No, what have you been hiding from me for the past two days, embarrassing me to death. ”
"Hehe, you're okay, in fact, I don't know how to reply to you, and you also have good intentions. ”
Xu Xingkong laughed dryly and said: "Don't mention it, you better forget about jì, this is a typical black history." ”
Lu Qianqian shook her head and said with a sly smile: "No, I won't forget, if you want to seal my mouth, you have to think about how to do it." ”
Xu Xingkong smiled: "Am I guilty of my own sin?"
Lu Qianqian tilted her head and smiled silently, like a proud little fox.
After being silent for a while, Xu Xingkong said lightly: "I think it's okay, you have more courage than me, I admire you, and I'm a little ashamed compared to you." ”
"What?"
Lu Qianqian looked at Xu Xingkong in surprise, Xu Xingkong looked at the street scene in the distance intently and said: "You are a girl who dares to pursue, and I can't overcome my fear of reality at all, I always like to hide in my own world, so, you are braver than me, but"
Lu Qianqian showed a smile, her eyes looked at Xu Xingkong more and more brightly, and the whole person looked extremely beautiful.
"However, I don't think that repeated defeats are not bravery, and repeated defeats are the real wisdom and bravery, perhaps, we can encourage each other. ”
Xu Xingkong said, turned his head and looked at Lu Qianqian seriously, Lu Qianqian's eyes were like a clear spring, Xu Xingkong could see his shadow from it, the only thing that made him faintly uneasy was that there was a faint blood-colored light in the clear spring.
Lu Qianqian nodded, smiled and said, "Okay, you are a big man, you should be better, how big this world is, and it's not terrible at all." ”
"Hmm. ”
Xu Xingkong smiled and nodded, Lu Qianqian squinted her eyes and looked away for a while, inhaled hard and slowly exhaled.
"What a nice weather, the whole person is comfortable, okay, go back to work. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded, the two turned around and walked back, and when they arrived at the exit, Xu Xingkong slowed down and said:
"Well, you can tell me anything in the future, although I may not be able to help, but at least I am a qualified listener. ”
Lu Qianqian turned her head and smiled, nodded, and walked briskly along the corridor, Xu Xingkong saw her go away, and then exhaled and walked towards her office
"Xiao Xu, I was looking for you, Assistant Lin asked you to go to her office. ”
Xu Xingkong was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lao Huang suspiciously: "What's the matter?"
Lao Huang shrugged: "How do I know, but Assistant Lin's face is not very good, didn't you offend her?"
Xu Xing's heart froze, and he shook his head with a wry smile: "Do I dare?"
Lao Huang nodded sympathetically and said, "Yes, you go quickly, don't make people wait for a long time." ”
knocked on the wooden door of Lin Xiaotong's office, and a cold response came from behind the door, Xu Xingkong carefully pushed the door open, raised his eyes to look at Lin Xiaotong, and subconsciously activated the dark vision.
Well, the halo is not bad, pleasing to the eye pale cyan, as peaceful as a pool of water.
Lin Xiaotong raised his eyes and looked at Xu Xingkong, and the halo on his body rippled like a stone.
Xu Xingkong breathed a sigh of relief and stopped his dark vision.
"Assistant Lin, are you looking for me?"
"Come in, sit. ”
Lin Xiaotong's voice was very calm, but there was a faint hint of pressure, Xu Xingkong closed the door, walked to the chair opposite Lin Xiaotong's big desk and sat down slowly, his eyes never left Lin Xiaotong's face.
He found that Lin Xiaotong's skin was really good, smooth like a baby's skin, and in the bright light, the soft skin seemed to be translucent, and he looked like he wanted to pinch it.
