79. Heartbeat
After she said this, she slammed the door, not daring to look at her expression at all, Xiao Xubai's hand clenched into a fist through the door, and finally slipped from the door weakly.
The cause she planted many years ago finally bears bitter fruit at this moment, and I have to say that some things are often predestined in the dark.
She leaned down and put a large handful of lilies at her door, after a long time of waiting, the flowers were a little embarrassed, just like the withered joy on her face at this moment, a warm blood was extinguished by her indifference, and her heart was like a knife because of the news that she was with Ye Qiu, and the strength that was held up in front of her when she got up finally took off her disguise.
Silent tears, he stood in the corridor in the dark for a long time as he came, and Gu Nanfeng, who was separated by a door, also sat down at the door, covering his lips to prevent himself from crying a little.
Now maybe Ye Qiu is right, she has never forgotten Xiao Xubai, she has always had her existence in her heart all these years, so she can't accept anyone.
Even though there is more pain than happiness with her, it is still difficult to hide the throbbing when she meets her again after many years and appears in front of her with flowers.
"Happy birthday, Mom!" Xiao Xubai tiptoed open the door of the house, the man still hadn't slept, jumped up from the sofa and threw himself into her arms, and at the same time didn't forget to look behind her.
"Where's Teacher Gu?"
Xiao Xubai pulled the person off of him, smiled reluctantly, there was obvious tiredness on his face, his hair was a little messy, and the suit that he hadn't had time to change into was a little dusty.
"She has something to do, she can't come"
Xiao Qi nodded a little frustratedly, but still pulled her to the table, "Eat cake, Mom"
Looking at her stunned appearance, you knew that she had been hungry for a long time, Xiao Xubai cut a large piece for her, rubbed her hair, and said softly: "Go to bed early after eating, mom went to take a bath, I'm very tired today."
"But...... I haven't made a wish yet," Xiao Qi said with cream in her mouth, and said a little indistinctly, she had already disappeared behind the frosted glass door of the bathroom.
The rushing water took away the exhaustion all over her body, and also washed away her tears, her life was smooth, probably the only setback she encountered was Gu Nanfeng, but others said that she would grow wise, but she would never be able to pass this hurdle.
The cinnabar mole in the heart, the mosquito blood in the palm, probably Gu Nanfeng is like this.
She deliberately rubbed in the bathroom for a long time, until her skin was wrinkled, and then slowly dried herself and wrapped herself in a bathrobe, Xiao Qi was really asleep, one foot was exposed, she walked over and pulled the quilt for her, and gently closed the door.
The yellowed diary and the faint fragrance of ink, which belongs to the taste of the old times, Xiao Xubai turned on the lamp, turned the pages one by one, and it was all her delicate handwriting, and it seemed that the past was still vivid after so long.
When the doctor informed her that Nanfeng had died, she was in pain, and later when she was sorting out her belongings, she inadvertently found this diary in a drawer, she regarded it as a treasure, and lived without her for more than 1,400 days, relying only on memories, and now it seems that she is still alive is the greatest charity of God to her, and it is also the greatest torture that God has given her.
"June 20th, the weather is fine, the west coast of the United States is full of sunshine, but it is not very hot, yesterday and Xubai went to the beach for a walk, picked up a lot of shells and came back to string them into wind chimes, I don't know where she plans to take me to play today, a little anticipation"
followed by a smiling expression, Xiao Xubai also smirked at it, "Stupid, didn't I take you to surf, you still call it exciting, and you don't want to go home until dark."
"June 23rd, Qing, I was going to dive, but because of physical reasons, she was strictly forbidden, I really hated it, but I have to go to the hospital tomorrow to check my body, I'm so nervous, I don't know if my body is suitable for embryo implantation, she looks like a nobody"
followed by an angry expression, which made Xiao Xubai laugh, laughing and laughing, tears fell on the diary, she came back to her senses and hurriedly pulled a tissue to wipe it, but the ink was blurred and turned into a dirty mess, like a capital exclamation point, no matter how you wipe it, you can't wipe it off.
ββThe dividing line of memoryβ
Time rewinds back to that day in 2009, Xiao Xubai was not nervous, got up early in the morning, ran along the coastline for half an hour before going home to wake her up, the person shrunk in the quilt and refused to show his face, and his voice was a little muffled.
"Let me sleep a little longer"
Thinking that she was uncomfortable, Xiao Xubai reached out and probed her forehead, the temperature was normal, and he fished the person out of the quilt with force.
"What's wrong, huh? Didn't you say that you would go to the hospital together today? It's time to make an appointment."
Because she was not fully awake, her voice was a little glutinous, and she fell into her arms again, and she became more and more dependent on herself during these days in the United States, which made her extremely useful.
"The weather is so good today, maybe there will be a traffic jam on the road"
Xiao Xubai glanced at the weather outside the window, windy and cloudy, and raised her eyebrows slightly to look at what else she had to say.
"There must be a lot of people in the hospital, and we may have to wait in line, I don't know how long we will have to wait."
"I've already said hello to them, and they only accept our appointments this morning"
"......" Gu Nanfeng ran out of words, racking his brains to think of ways to delay.
Xiao Xubai saw through her careful thinking at a glance, and deliberately teased her, "Who was ambitious and said that he wanted to have a child for me, why did he coax it now?" β
"Talent...... Not really" Gu Nanfeng argued vigorously, but his face gradually turned red under the gaze of her gentle gaze.
Xiao Xubai sighed lightly, knowing what she was worried about, it was nothing more than that she was afraid that she would not be able to be a qualified good mother.
"What should be worried is me, after all, I often smoke and drink for socials, although I have quit, but I'm afraid it will still have a little impact on the egg, I'm not afraid of having a retard, what are you afraid of?"
Laughing angrily at her comfort, Gu Nanfeng tapped her shoulder, "Did you say that about your own child!" β
Xiao Xubai hugged the person into his arms, and Wen Xiang Nephrite almost couldn't put it down, "Besides, it may not be possible to plant it at one time, although I also hope to be able to hit it in one shot, after all, it is not good for your body."
In the end, he turned into a hooligan tone, leaning over and pecking her on the lips.
"If you don't win, you have to bother your husband and me to work hard."
The results of the examination were mixed, Xiao Xubai's genetics were very good, but her body was a little weak, and the doctor's advice was to recuperate for a while and then perform an embryo transfer, which would help the fertilized egg implant.
Gu Nanfeng sat quietly in the corridor of the hospital in a daze, Xiao Xubai came out of the office with the examination report, saw her with her head down and seemed to be a little unhappy, leaned over and hugged her shoulder, "What's the matter, aren't you happy to have a mixed-race baby soon?" β
The sperm is a Nordic man, a postdoctoral fellow who graduated from Oxford University in the United Kingdom, and was also gay before his death, and later died in an accident.
Gu Nanfeng raised his eyes to look at her delicate chin and said softly, "I'm just scared ......"
"Not once, and a second and third time, huh?" She turned her face sideways and kissed her forehead, "From now on, get up early and follow me to morning exercises, throw away your junk food, what potato chips, sandwiches, popcorn, fried chicken thighs......"
Gu Nanfeng let out a wail, "Can I refuse!" β
"What do you think?" Xiao Xubai raised his eyebrows slightly to look at her, the corners of his lips were soft, but there was clearly a domineering attitude in his eyes that could not be refused.
If Nanfeng has her child, then Xiao Minsheng will be much easier to talk to, in case this baby is a male grandson, no matter how much he looks at Nanfeng, for the sake of the child, it will be a matter of time before Nanfeng enters the door of the Xiao family.
While Xiao Xubai was still working in the study, Gu Nanfeng took a quick shower after yoga, then tiptoed open the refrigerator door and took out a box of ice cream at the bottom of the box, carefully bypassed her half-hidden study door, and went to the terrace to enjoy the sunbathing at dusk.
Life is really comfortable, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, embracing the blue sky and sea at close range, and eating ice cream, Gu Nanfeng happily tore open the package, scooped it with a spoon and ate it, while flipping through the book in his hand.
Xiao Xubai had already raised his head from the computer when she passed by, frowned slightly and smiled helplessly, closed the computer after solving the work at hand, and got up to look for her.
"Is it delicious?"
"Mmmmmmmm Gu Nanfeng bit the spoon in his mouth, spit out some words indistinctly, and nodded.
Xiao Xubai laughed angrily, walked up to her, leaned over slightly, and propped himself up on the beach chair.
"Didn't I throw away all your snacks, and where did that come from?"
"cough cough cough ......" Gu Nanfeng was caught off guard and choked with tears, biting the spoon and looking at her innocently, her face still had the flush that had just been bathed, the tips of her hair were stained with moisture, and from time to time there were droplets of water slipping down her collarbone into the deep placket, Xiao Xubai's eyes moved slightly, and she looked down, she was wearing her wide white shirt, her skin was as smooth as jade, and she looked a little looming, because she was sitting in black hot pants that just covered her buttocks and submerged into the hem of the shirt, revealing the smooth lines of her thighs and straight and slender calves.
Under her scrutinizing gaze, Gu Nanfeng shrank back and carefully handed over the ice cream, "That'...... Then I won't eat it......"
The corners of Xiao Xubai's lips had an inexplicable arc, "I will allow you to make an exception today, but ......" Her voice changed, leaned over and licked her lips, and the sweet fragrance melted between her lips and teeth.
"You're going to feed me"
Gu Nanfeng's face suddenly turned red, obviously knowing that her feeding was not in the ordinary sense, and he bit his lip and didn't dare to look at her.
"It's still in the fridge if you want to eat"
"And?" Xiao Xubai raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of threat in his tone.
Gu Nanfeng couldn't wait to bite off his tongue, "No, no, no, no!" β
Xiao Xubai nodded, "So?" β
Caught in the difficult situation of choosing between her and ice cream, and the thought that the snacks she had worked so hard to hide were about to be thrown away by her again, Gu Nanfeng was in pain, and after struggling for a long time, she decided to please the person in front of her first, maybe she was in a good mood and her snacks would have a chance of life.
The sweet ice cream melted on the tips of the tongues of the two people, and the tips of each other's tongues tossed and turned for a while, and when Gu Nanfeng was about to leave, she pressed forward step by step, slightly supporting the back of her head, forcing her to raise her head to accept her enthusiasm.
Xiao ...... Hmm...... "Finally broke free from her shackles, and was firmly pressed against the beach chair, grabbing her lips as fingers eagerly poked under the hem of her shirt.
The softest part of her body was firmly held in her hand, making Gu Nanfeng tremble slightly, and a red tide surged on her fair cheeks, and she was a little resistant to being rude.
"Isn't it getting bigger, I can't hold it with one hand" Xiao Xubai chuckled, his fingertips teased the bright dogwood, and his palm was gently kneaded, making Gu Nanfeng bite his lower lip tightly, his whole body became sore, and the ice cream in his hand fell to the ground, but no one cared about its condition for a long time.
When she was getting better, her fingertips gently probed and brought out the moisturizing fingers, Xiao Xubai chuckled proudly, she was still skilled after not doing it for a long time, and Gu Nanfeng's body was also more and more sensitive by her.
Just as he was about to make a move, the doorbell rang crisply, and it was like a magic sound, Xiao Xubai frowned slightly and continued to work hard regardless of it, but Gu Nanfeng couldn't ignore the impact, panting lightly and intermittently.
"Syria...... Narration ...... Someone knocked on the door......"
"Regardless" In order to punish her for her inattention, someone deliberately bit on the delicate skin on her neck, Gu Nanfeng gasped, slightly separating the distance between the two.
"No...... No......"
"Damn!" Xiao Xubai was helpless, and went to open the door angrily, but he froze in place, frowning slightly, and a little unhappy.
"South Wind, looking for you"
Gu Nanfeng hurriedly took care of himself, and before he had time to fasten his buttons, he walked out while answering, "Who?" β
When he saw the person standing at the door, his eyes also swelled with huge surprise, "Zhixia, why are you here?" β
Song Zhixia's gaze turned back and forth between them, obviously feeling that the atmosphere was a little ambiguous, but he still overflowed with a warm and bright smile.
"I heard Fu Lin say that you are also coming to the United States, and I happen to be on vacation in California, so I stopped by to see you."
I haven't seen her for more than half a year, she is still enthusiastic, she is more beautiful, her eyebrows are more amorous, and when she hooks her lips and smiles, she is a little charming, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
When she looked at her silently, Song Zhixia was also observing her carefully, under Xiao Xubai's care, she was a little rounder than before, but she was still thin, her long hair was scattered over her shoulders, her white shirt outlined her beautiful figure, her face was a little longer than before, she had faded away from her youth, and she also had the charm of a mature woman in her gestures, and she was also gentle and elegant because of her reading poetry and books.
It's a world away from the gray face in the past.,It's very easy to fall in love with the object at first sight.γ
Xiao Xubai Qiang couldn't help the unhappiness in his heart, but still showed his due demeanor, "Please sit down, what to drink?" β
"Coffee, thank you"
"Wait a minute"
"I'll go" Gu Nanfeng stopped her, and when she wanted to go to the kitchen, Xiao Xubai grabbed her wrist again, turned her head sideways, and exhaled in her ear.
"You go back to the room to change your clothes first, the kiss marks are too obvious"
Gu Nanfeng's face turned red all of a sudden, and he glared at her, "It's not all your fault."
"You just beg me at night and don't blame me, baby"
The very intimate whispering between the two made Song Zhixia's eyes feel a trace of envy, and she didn't open her mouth until she returned to the room.
"I didn't expect you to be with her"
Xiao Xubai put the brewed coffee in front of her, "I didn't expect to see you again, what's the matter, I still miss her?" β
Song Zhixia relaxed herself and fell into the soft sofa, "Yes, after tossing and turning, I still found that she is the most simple and the most nostalgic."
There was a faint hint of sharpness in Xiao Xubai's eyes, "Really?" It's a pity that you don't have a chance anymore, we've decided to have a baby."
"She's still so young, are you going to tie her up with your children and family? It's a little too selfish."
Song Zhixia's eyebrows also turned cold little by little.
"I'm almost thirty years old, and I need a child so that my great family business doesn't fall into the wrong hands, is there anything wrong?"
"Then why don't you give birth to yourself!"
Song Zhixia became excited, and slowly calmed down after seeing her go out of the room, the corners of Xiao Xubai's lips hooked slightly, and patted Gu Nanfeng's shoulder, "It's rare to relax, have a good chat, I'll go back to the room first."
