"It was taken away by the blue fish."
Xu Xing glanced at her, "How do you know?" ”
"Because the jade flute is also missing, I found it in your drawer when I cleaned up my room some time ago, but now it is gone. Xu Xing, Qingyu is not your opponent at all, if you didn't give it to him willingly, he wouldn't have been able to get these two things anyway, but why did you give them to him, it's because ...... Me? ”
"You're thinking too much."
"I knew you would say that," Wu Xi took another step closer to him, "Then tell me, why don't you return the jade flute to the museum, but keep it for yourself?" ”
Xu Xing squinted at her for a while, and suddenly leaned over to Wu Xi without warning, he was so close to her, his body was almost attached to her, this time it was Wu Xi's turn to be uncomfortable, she just wanted to retreat, but Xu Xing pressed her shoulders with both hands. He lowered his head, and his bottomless eyes became extraordinarily clear, "Because, for the first time, it made me see my true heart clearly." ”
"Your sincerity...... What is it? Wu Xi's face began to get hot, and even his ears turned red.
Xu Xing stopped talking, with a hint of a vague smile on his face, and lowered his head to stare at her eyes. Wu Xi knew that he was waiting for himself to say first, this villain is always so black-bellied, so proud, and so ......
"Is it okay to be my boyfriend?" Another time her brain couldn't keep up with her mouth, but this time she didn't regret it.
Xu Xing didn't answer her for a long time, Wu Xi began to feel uneasy, wouldn't he really be wrong, then it would be a shame, after all, they still live together, how should they get along in the future?
"I'm kidding, you're not going to take it seriously, are you?" She smiled awkwardly and turned around to run away, but was hugged into her arms by the person behind her.
"I took it seriously."
Wu Xi sat in front of the computer and wrote the interview script to be handed in today, and every word she typed out was finally gathered into Xu Xing's face, and he looked at her with a triumphant smile.
"I'm going crazy." She pulled her hair into a mess with her hands, and she had this smile in her head since last night, how could she work if she continued like this. Fortunately, he was arranged to go out for an interview today, otherwise this day would not have passed.
Wu Xi decisively got up from her seat and came to the bathroom, she bowed and slapped a handful of cold water on her face, trying to cool down her hot heart.
"Xiao Ye hasn't come to work today?"
"yes, it's been four days plus the weekend."
"Did you call the police?"
"The supervisor said that her family had called the police the day before yesterday, and the police came to the unit over the weekend and took away her computer."
"It's so serious, it can't really happen."
"Who knows, her family is dying, but this girl looks very simple, and social relations shouldn't be complicated, what can happen?"
Wu Xi walked out of the bathroom: "Xiao Ye? Are they talking about the front desk of the company? The girl with a round face and a pair of eyes? ”
She saw the "bag inquiry" - Ding Ding had just returned from an outside interview, so she hurried over: "Have you heard?" Xiao Ye, it's just that our front desk hasn't come to work since a few days ago. ”
"I know, I hope she's okay." Ding Ding was unusual, and did not explain the cause and effect of the whole thing and the background to Wu Xi one by one, but looked at the computer on the table in a daze.
"Tintin, what's wrong with you?" Wu Xi turned her chair opposite him and looked at her with concern.
"I just heard two high school students on the bus back from the interview saying a terrible thing, a legend circulating in the city of D."
Legend has it that on a dark and windy night, a female worker came home from the night shift, and it was snowing heavily that day, and there was no one on the road. As she walked, she faintly heard footsteps stepping on snow behind her, but when she looked back, she saw that there was no one. She was very strange, so she quickened her walking, but she did not expect the laces to suddenly fall apart, so she had to squat down and tie her shoes, because it was winter, she wore heavy gloves, so she could not tie the thin laces for a while. Just as she was about to take off her gloves, a voice came from above her head, "I'll help you." ”
She looked up and saw a tall, white man smiling at her, and as he spoke, he crouched down and nimbly tied the two straps into a beautiful knot.
"When you come home so late in the future, remember to ask your family to pick you up, you may encounter danger when you walk at night as a girl."
The female worker said yes and ran away shyly. But the next day, instead of asking the family to pick her up, as the man said, she arrived on time at the place where they had last met. She deliberately walked very slowly, expecting to meet him again, as if God was helping her, and her shoelaces were loosened again.
Sure enough, just as she crouched down to tie her shoes, the man came to her again. This time she didn't run away quickly, the man helped her tie her shoes and talked to her as he walked, and actually sent her all the way to the door. And then there was the third and fourth time......
One day, on the way home, the female worker couldn't help but say to the man: "We've known each other for a while, but I don't know what your name is, and I haven't been to your house, I'm thinking, what is the relationship between the two of us?" ”
The man didn't answer her question, he handed her a note, "This is my home address, you can understand everything if you come to me tomorrow." ”
The female worker was very happy, and the next day she dressed herself carefully and went to the man according to the address on the note. However, when she found the place according to the house number, she found that it was actually a cemetery. The cemetery was near the place where they had first met, and though she passed by it every day, she didn't notice its number.
Behind the house number was a more specific number, number 154, and the female worker looked at the number and anxiously asked the cemetery janitor if there was a tall man living here.
"There are a lot of people here, but they are all dead." The janitor smiled.
The female worker did not give up, she went to the cemetery and found a tombstone according to the number. She was stunned when she saw the photo on the tombstone, the man in the photo looked white, but it was not the man who accompanied her to the night shift every day. And on the top of the tombstone, there is a red gauze scarf, which is a token she gave him when they met for a month.
