Chapter 278: A Strange Voice Next Door
The hall was quiet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xu Shuangchuan sat at the table and stared at Chen Chi eating noodles with good eyes.
Chen Chi ate a few bites, and couldn't help but roll up a chopstick noodle and send it to Xu Shuang's mouth: "Fat sister, it's so pitiful, you can eat it too." ”
Xu Shuangchuan smiled and hid back: "You eat it yourself." ”
Chen Chi teased her for a while, scanning the living room. The heavy sofas, tables and chairs were not as dull as they were in the daytime in the yellow light. The cracked sofa seams, the painted stool legs, and the old plastic tablecloth were all softened by the light at this time, showing a bit of home warmth. The dry and spicy taste of low-quality tobacco mixed with the oily aroma of fried eggs wraps people in it, and they get used to it for a long time.
He stared at Xu Shuangluo, and only then could he take a closer look at it. I haven't seen her for more than a month, but fortunately she is still the same as before, her cheeks are moist, her eyebrows are elegant, she is smiling with her elbows on her cheeks, gentle and soft under the light, and there is no trace of emaciation and melancholy. The blue-gray soft-shell crab took good care of herself, and when the landlord was there just now, she was quiet and stable, but now only the two of them were left to sit opposite each other, and her eyes were lively.
Chen Chi asked softly, "Shuangshuang, are you okay these days?"
"Good. Isn't it reported to you every day?" Xu Shuang lowered Nunu's mouth, "Eat quickly." ”
"John is gone, is it usually a little more spacious?"
"Just be spacious. Xu Shuangchuan said with a smile, "He has some things that are not easy to take away, so he left me half a bottle of oil, the oil we just fried eggs with, and a bottle of fruit vinegar, I sprinkled vinegar on every meal a few days ago." ”
Chen Chiyi raised his eyebrows: "Is there any vinegar left?" ”
"Yes, yes, I'll get it for you. ”
Chen Chi looked at Xu Shuang's jubilant back, clenched his fists and blocked his lips, and laughed quickly. He never expected a man to be sharp.
However, he likes this heartless openness.
After the meal, Chen Chi and Xu Shuangchuan went down to throw out the garbage together. The small square is dark, and the air is very refreshing, with the last trace of warmth left in late summer, and a layer of coolness that has just risen in early autumn. Chen Chi stood under the plane tree, with the faint street lamp, distinguishing the classification signs on the garbage cans.
"This. Xu Shuangchuan pointed.
He smiled and threw it in at her command. Looking up, the light in the Qian family's living room faintly shone behind the curtains.
"When I came, I walked here and saw a person returning from the garbage, I was afraid that it would be you, and followed a few steps. Later, I found that the man went to another door number, and almost shouted. ”
"Huh?" Xu Shuang said dissatisfied, "Can you still misrecognize me?"
Chen Chi pursed his lips and smiled, hugged her and said, "Handa, look at the light here, everyone who is about the same height as you, I have to think that it is you, so I can feel at ease." ”
Xu Shuangchuan shrank her mouth in satisfaction, imagining to herself that if Chen Chi really appeared silently on the side of the road and suddenly called her, her surprise would be scared to death, and she would definitely drag him into the light to look at it from head to toe a few times. She scoffed, "Thankfully it's not me." ”
Tonight is a crescent moon, and the sky is deep blue and dotted with stars.
Xu Shuangchuan leaned on Chen Chi, stood in the middle of the small square, took a comfortable breath, looked up and said, "It's so beautiful, I usually don't come down to see it alone." ”
"Very well-behaved. Chen Chi praised, "Then I'll accompany you to watch it for a while." ”
When the two crept upstairs, it was late at night.
After Chen Chi took a bath, he gently unscrewed the door lock and entered the house, and saw Xu Shuangchuan sitting on the bed, holding his computer and watching it with relish.
"It's so late, what are you looking at?"
"The last time I went to you, I took a few street view photos, which I accidentally deleted, I will see if you have them on your computer. ”
"Don't look for it, turn off the computer. Chen Chi ordered.
Xu Shuangchuan glanced at Chen Chi's wet hair: "Wait a minute, your hair is not dry, it will wet my pillowcase." ”
Chen Chi couldn't cry or laugh, took off his shoes and went to bed, and fished her over with the computer: "You make it clear, do you feel sorry for my hair, or do you feel sorry for your pillowcase?"
"Don't make a fuss, you're going to rip off the power cord. Xu Shuang lowered his voice and laughed, "Both of them are distressed." ”
Chen Chi was so angry that he pulled her cheek, and Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly soothed: "I feel sorry for your hair more." ”
Chen Chi couldn't help but smile, took the pillow over, looked at it for a moment, pointed to the crooked line and nodded: "Fat sister, you left yourself such an original pillowcase, I think about it now, you are indeed good to me." ”
Xu Shuangchuan stared at him with annoyance, and replaced it with Chen Chi to reassure: "Look at the photo, look at the photo." He stuffed the pillow behind Xu Shuangchuan against the wall, and the two leaned together to enjoy the old photos.
The silence of the night passed quietly.
Chen Chi raised his hand and gently combed Xu Shuang's hair, then touched the roots of his hair, and said, "Shuangshuang, sleep." ”
Xu Shuang lowered her eyes and was about to speak.
There was a very strange sound, and she suddenly looked at the wall, and then quickly turned back, and the expression on her face was very indescribable.
Chen Chi was stunned at first, looking at Xu Shuang in disbelief, and then his gaze also quickly flew to the wall.
The sound of the next door continued, like the headboard creaking against the wall, accompanied by the sharp grinding of the foot fulcrum on the floor.
Chen Chi's ears rang with such a voice, and his eyes locked on Xu Shuangxia, but seeing her eyes flickering and dodging, the corners of her mouth moved, and she wanted to speak and stopped, unspeakably embarrassed. At this moment, his heart seemed to burst open, and he suddenly grabbed Xu Shuangchuan's wrist, and his strength made Xu Shuangchuan stunned.
Chen Chi quickly controlled himself, slightly loosened the grip of the tiger's mouth, and pulled her out of bed with an expressionless face.
Xu Shuang followed him to the balcony calmly, and neither of them spoke.
The balcony door was hidden behind them, and the light in the room was only a small strip of light. In the distance, those rooftops were faintly lined up in the misty night, and the whole neighborhood was quiet and silent, without any sound.
Chen Chi stood silently and straight facing the stars in the distant sky. In the same night sky, an hour ago, he stood in the small square with Xu Shuang in his arms and looked up, what he saw was dazzling, and now, he didn't know what he was looking at, those irritation and tingling swam in the veins of his body, wrapped in the night breeze on his face, not dissipated, hidden in his body, gradually cool.
Xu Shuang lowered his head to look at Chen Chi, and after ten minutes, he didn't say a word, and the lines at the corners of his mouth were stiff. She had never seen such a deep and depressed Chen Chi, he had always been bright and flying, humorous and funny, and when he was not laughing, he was gentle and kind, even if he had been sad and gloomy alone, he had never been like this moment, and his whole face was full of coldness.
"Pool. Xu Shuangchuan shook Chen Chi's hand.
Chen Chi slowly turned sideways, stared at her, and reached out to circle her into his arms for a while: "Is it cold?"
Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly shook his head.
In the night, the two hugged each other, over Chen Chi's shoulder, Xu Shuangxia could see the tiles on his hut, spread like fish scales, and then up, the crescent moon in the sky was clear and soft, far away from it, the little stars were blinking, and the night was so quiet.
She had never really understood Chen Chi's thoughts at the moment.
Many years later, Chen Chi asked her: "Frost, men and women think differently, do you know?"
She didn't know. (To be continued.) )
