Chapter Ninety-Seven: Eve
The white coat and black trench coat repeatedly appeared in the dream, Wang Xixi woke up, fortunately it was just a dream, but it was too real, she stood up and walked to the window.
Late at night, the city fell silent, only the newly built buildings in the distance were still lit up endlessly, and there was always a window that was completely sleepless.
The dream just now flashed in her mind repeatedly, Song Senran, Gu Ao, Song Senran, Gu Ao...... The figures of the two people overlapped, what I like is Gu Ao, Wang Xixi told himself, there is no doubt about this, but what should Song Senran do, he has never confessed, she can't rush over and say I don't like you.
Wang Xixi poured herself a glass of water, thinking of Gu Ao, she felt warm, he was so good, so good that she was a little cautious, walking on thin ice, she always suspected that he was not real, but a character she made up, only Hu Meiyin's existence reminded her that he was a real person.
Hu Meiyin, Hu Meiyin, Hu Meiyin......
What exactly is the relationship between the two of them? Could it be ...... She didn't dare to continue thinking about it, if that was the case, what would she do.
She thought of the call she received when she got home in the evening, it was about nine o'clock in the evening, she had just entered the door, and she was still depressed about Song Senran's affairs, but she received a call from Gu Ao.
"Sissy, are you home?" It was his first words, and a deep voice came from afar through a telephone line.
"Well, just came back." She tried to put a smile on her face, and she wanted him to tell that she was okay.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line.
"I'm sorry." It was a long time before Gu Ao said, it seemed like a century had passed.
Wang Xixi didn't react at first, and her brain short-circuited before she realized that he was saying goodbye halfway.
"It's okay." She said, there is nothing wrong with coming back with Song Senran, "I'm home safely." To alleviate his guilt, she said this in a nutshell.
"Then," Gu Ao paused on the other end of the phone, "get some rest early." ”
"Well, is you still alone in your family?" She suddenly remembered what he said last night, that his mother had gone abroad.
"yes," his voice came faintly, "what's wrong?" ”
"It's okay," Wang Xixi was a little unhappy, what's wrong, just care, "Then you should rest early." ”
"Well, good night."
His voice was so deep that she was in a trance for a moment, and just now another boy said goodnight to her so softly and gently.
"Good night." She didn't know who she was talking to, whether it was with Gu Ao or with Song Senran.
This night is destined to be uneasy, Wang Xixi stood in front of the window, on the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, maybe it is the early morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, there are still many vehicles on the street, the people in these cars are not too old, what are they busy with.
Gu Ao is home alone, isn't he afraid? She's always afraid of sleeping alone, and even if her parents aren't at home sometimes, she'll find someone to accompany her, but boys should be bolder.
Wang Xixi was woken up by the sound of his mother's chiseling door, and he didn't know when he fell asleep again in the middle of the night, but this time he slept for a long time without any dreams.
After the New Year, I will be ready to go out to visit the New Year, and the relatives who did not go to see it on the first day of the new year are now going to go, which is a hard work, for Wang Xixi.
From the second to the fifth year of junior high school, she was overwhelmed by the indiscriminate greetings of her relatives, as a high school student, she answered their questions about academic performance like a machine, and listened to them talk about studying hard and getting admitted to a good university, but when she saw the proud smiles on her parents' faces, she suddenly felt that even if a good score was to win them glory, it was worth it.
The little bit of fresh snow that fell on the night of the first day of the new year had long since melted away by the sun on the second day of the new year, and the sun father had been hanging high in the sky for the past few days, looking at a kind old man and watching all living beings.
Gu Ao's call came on the evening of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and Wang Xixi had just walked into the house staring at the afterglow of the sunset, and the living room was orange and red, warming her cold hands and feet.
The rush of the phone beat her mood like the bell in the emergency room.
Wang Xixi rushed forward with a brisk step. Ever since she was with Gu Ao, she had always been the first to rush to the phone, for fear that her parents would accidentally answer her call and find something.
Zheng Zhongqin thought that she was afraid that her parents would be tired, and a smile appeared on her face, "Lao Wang, look at our daughter, she has grown a lot in the past six months, it seems that she has really grown up!" ”
Lao Wang also nodded with satisfaction, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Wang Xixi stared at the two of them until they were both in the room and turned their attention elsewhere, then she said into the microphone, "Say it." ”
"Sissy, let's go tomorrow afternoon, go to the place I told you about, and relax as if it were a descent."
His voice was still low and deep, the same as before, but Wang Xixi had a feeling of being in a different world, she felt that she hadn't heard him speak for a century, and his voice was like a summer flood slowly pouring up the embankment to her heart.
"Well, okay, I'll tell my parents about it." Wang Xixi's heart was still trembling.
"Sissy," Gu Ao's voice was a little slurred.
"What's wrong?"
"Hu Meiyin is also going, don't forget." As if he was afraid of disturbing her, he tuned his voice to the softest mode, "I'll explain it to you, okay?" ”
Wang Xixi's body was still trembling and couldn't help herself, why did she take her, but it was okay, she explained that everything was over, she didn't have to be suspicious anymore, and she didn't need to panic because they appeared at the same time.
"Sissy?" Gu Ao called her tentatively.
Wang Xixi came back to his senses, "Well, I know what to do." ”
A trip for three people? This is the first time since she was a child that she went out without her parents, and her heart is still up and down, can she fully trust Gu Ao?
Yes. She comforted herself inwardly.
"Mom, do you remember Li Jing?" During dinner, Wang Xixi asked Zheng Zhongqin cautiously.
"I remember." Zheng Zhongqin didn't even look at Wang Xixi, and continued to pick up vegetables.
"When we were eleven, didn't we say that we would go to play together, but then Song Senran had a car accident and didn't go, just now Li Jing called me and said that I would accompany her tomorrow." She finished speaking in one breath, and then waited for Zheng Zhongqin's answer with the same mood as a prisoner waiting for the death penalty.
Zheng Zhongqin was stunned for a moment, put down his chopsticks, and thought for a long time before saying slowly: "Then you go, be careful yourself, and call if you have something." ”
