Chapter 22: "The Woman Doesn't Remember the Way"
She sat in a seat farther away from him, "Beforehand, I really didn't know it was Mr. Gu. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Even if you don't say it, I won't live under the same roof as you. ”
After saying this, Gu Lingxiu slowly raised her eyes and stared at her, trying to see the clue from her slight expression.
"But if you want me to move out today, it's impossible, I still need time to find a house, I can only promise you that I can move out after finding a house in a week, of course, it won't interfere with your daily life."
He looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see any hint of lying in her expression.
You know, not long ago, she took the initiative to talk to him on the phone. It's ridiculous to swear now that you won't bother him.
So he smiled unabashedly mockingly, "Are you finished?" After saying that, immediately look for a house. ”
"Not finished"
Seeing that he didn't say anything about his affection, she didn't be polite anymore,
"Later, my friend will come over and eat dumplings. Just to tell you, you are in a good mood to eat, we welcome. ”
He got up and went straight into the room without saying a word.
Lin Quan thought to himself, it turned out that what he had seen before was already considered polite.
At that time, Gu Lingxiu didn't expect that one day, she would be eaten to death.
That was the first big case that Lin Quan received, and he had to go to Hong Kong to communicate with the parties to collect evidence, and he explained that it might take five or six days before leaving.
On the first day, apart from feeling that the house was a little empty, he didn't feel much, and by the evening he couldn't hold it back. When you watch TV, you will be in a daze, and it feels like an empty nester.
Lin Quanyi knew that he didn't answer the phone when he was working, but he wouldn't hang up either.
He'd call again every once in a while to see if she's done. It's not that I don't believe it, I just want to fight. So often her phone is out of battery, and no one answers.
The next day, he was busy with work and finally stayed up all morning, and went back at noon to cook a bowl of noodles by himself, and when he found that he forgot to add eggs in the middle of eating, he finally couldn't hold it back.
Putting down the chopsticks, she muttered: That woman doesn't remember the road very well.
I put on a scarf and went to the airport.
He had discovered by accident that she had no sense of direction, and although she tried her best to hide it by remembering the name of the shop, every time she went out, she first looked left and right at both sides of the store, and then took a step.
Lin Quanyi saw Gu Lingxiu when he returned to the hotel's bus stop after leaving the party's house.
He put his hands in his pockets and leaned under the advertising sign, his tall figure was undoubtedly revealed.
After seeing her, he slowly walked towards her with a smile, took off his scarf and wrapped it around her neck,
"What do you want to eat?"
She smiled and wiped the wetness from the corners of her eyes, "Guilin rice noodles"
"Don't eat" Gu Lingxiu nodded the tip of her nose, "Where did you get Guilin rice noodles in Hong Kong, accompany me to do something first." ”
She said it casually, nodded, and followed him on the bus.
She took out her phone and looked at the time, only to find that there had been thirty-four missed calls from morning to now, all of which were from him.
My heart softened and I looked at his side face. Looking around, she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, and then immediately twisted to the other side.
Gu Lingxiu was stunned for a second, smiled and touched the tip of his nose, his ears were red, and after thinking about it seriously, he could not wash his left side of his face tonight.
At the penultimate stop, they got off the bus. Lin Quan saw a few big characters of Guilin rice noodles at a glance, and covered his mouth in surprise and said, "There are really Guilin rice noodles!" ”
He pretended not to care and glanced at the sign, "Since there is, let's barely eat the bowl." ”
After a while, Xu Jiaoma Xiaoyue came in a fuss, and looked around as soon as she entered the house.
"It's so beautiful! How much money do you get this month? ”
Lin Quan didn't want to say anything, so he smiled and diverted the words, "I chopped some mushroom filling, what else do you want to eat?" ”
"Yes, dumplings," Ma Xiaoyue said, "the mushroom filling is good, I like it, and the cabbage is even better." ”
"I'm heavy, leeks and leeks" Xu Jiao raised her hand and jumped to the kitchen.
"Both"
When she bought shiitake mushrooms, she bought leeks and cabbage and fungus, and they picked them up.
Give them disposable plastic gloves, "You wrap them first, I'll chop them later"
Xu Jiao rolled up her sleeves and was about to start work, "I'm good at this, I'm doing it at home."
Ma Xiaoyue is a southerner and has never made dumplings, but she is also enthusiastic and wears gloves, "It doesn't matter if it's good or not, just eat it." ”
The kitchen was so noisy, how could it be impossible to hear it only through a wall, but Lin Quan didn't want them to whisper, and only when they asked why they didn't see her roommate, did they say euphemistically,
"He's busy with work, so he's resting in his room."
Who knew that these two little girls didn't understand this meaning at all, but said enthusiastically, "No matter how busy you are, you have to eat, don't you, ask "her" to come out to eat together." ”
She thought to herself that this was also basic politeness, it was one thing whether he came or not, and it was another thing whether he called or not. Nodding and going to his room to knock on the door and asking, "Mr. Gu, the dumplings are ready, do you want to come out and eat some together?" ”
Hearing Mr. Gu's three words, the two little girls were stunned, staring at each other with big eyes, male?
It's not conservative, there are a lot of men and women sharing a house now, but Lin Quanyi is quite conservative in their impression, so they can't help but be a little surprised.
"No" After a few seconds, Gu Lingxiu's deep voice came out.
She didn't say any more, sat back in her seat and picked up her chopsticks again and put on a normal smile, "Let's eat"
No matter how slow the reaction was, the two of them probably figured out the situation, Xu Jiao bit her chopsticks and asked in a low voice,
"Sister Koizumi, isn't your roommate not easy to get along with?"
Lin Quan felt that he didn't have to tell people everything, so he put it down and said, "I don't know, I'm not familiar with it."
Ma Xiaoyue likes to analyze this kind of thing, just heard the voice of a mature man, put down the chopsticks and said, "Let me tell you, most of the boys who have gone out to work are self-righteous, and they look like children when they are still studying in us." In fact, who is not a child here, it is really like a bull breaking himself. ”
Lin Quan poked the dumplings and couldn't help laughing, feeling that she was a little reasonable in what she said.
"Eh, if you want me to say, if you can't move back, forget it, let's try to be quiet at night, don't make a fuss, let you review well."
"Let's talk about it"
She put the remaining half in her mouth again, but she didn't finish her words. It's not good for her to be herself, so she deprives the two of them of the right to call her boyfriend, and if she really can't find a suitable one, she can only move back.
It is estimated that the two of them are hindering Gu Lingxiu, and they are not so noisy in the back, and they leave after eating and chatting for a while.
She felt that she couldn't help the two of them, and she didn't have enough fun coming to play.
When she was washing dishes in the kitchen, Gu Lingxiu came out of the room to pour water, and she had already changed into gray casual clothes, so it seemed that she should not go out in the afternoon.
Neither of them spoke, as if they hadn't seen each other.
For an afternoon, both of them were doing their own in their rooms with the doors closed.
As soon as Lin Quan finished reading the book, he went to the Internet to check the nearby houses, which were all extremely expensive and the environment was not very good.
In the evening, she made two dishes and put them on the living room table to eat, and listened to his room without making a sound.
If it weren't for the light coming through the crack in the door, she must have thought that he was going out again, and he was the kind of person he described when he went out late at night in the dark.
Halfway through eating, I heard the door creak, followed by footsteps.
She bit her chopsticks and looked at him, and saw him go straight into the kitchen, followed by the sound of washing the pot.
The sound of the water has not stopped for five or six minutes in a row, and she remembers that she has washed it three times, as for it.
Then I saw him open the refrigerator, began to rummage and look for things, took a bag out and sniffed it, frowned and threw it back, took a pot of cooked food and looked at the production day
Period, throw it directly into the trash can next to it.
As soon as I closed the refrigerator door, I entered the room.
Lin Quan looked at him and wanted to say how many dishes there were, but remembering that he had to brush back and forth several times to wash the pot, and he ate it like this, he didn't know how to dislike it, so he still didn't say anything, and silently accepted the bowl after eating.
She heard the doorbell ring in the kitchen and didn't see him open the door for a long time, so she wiped her hands and went to open the door.
"Hello, you ordered takeout"
There was a takeaway guy standing outside the door, carrying a bag of things in his hand.
She was stunned, looked in the direction of his room, and took the object.
"Thank you"
"A total of one hundred and sixty"
It's still pay-as-you-go, what to eat for a takeaway costs more than 100, and he didn't respond to shouting twice at his room, and it was not good for people to wait, so he took his own money and paid first.
She put the takeaway directly on the living room table, thinking that he would come out and get it later.
But before she saw him come out after half an hour, she felt that something was wrong, could she have forgotten it in her sleep?
The door was hidden, and as soon as she reached out and touched it, it opened halfway of the way.
When I raised my eyes, I saw Gu Lingxiu sitting on the ground sweating profusely, biting her lip and covering her left leg with a painful expression, next to her a crutch leaning against the end of the bed, and one falling to the ground.
She hurriedly walked in and bent down to help him, "Mr. Gu, are you okay?" ”
At a glance, he could see that there was a dark scar on his exposed left calf, and the surrounding area was obviously swollen, and the epidermis was also abnormally red.
He lowered his trouser leg and slowly stood up with one hand on the ground and the other on the edge of the bed, his face was blushing from the effort, and the sweat was dripping down to his neck.
She stood next to her and stretched out her half-hand, feeling his rejection and slowly putting it back.
He sat on the bed with his left foot straight, gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, his face trembled because of the pain, he picked up a cane leaning on the edge of the bed, supported his left hand and slowly stood up on one foot, and his dangling left foot trembled in pain.
Taking a breath of cool air, he walked to the door step by step with his left hand on crutches and his right foot standing alone.
Lin Quanyi withdrew his gaze when he went out to the door, flicked the bangs in front of him, bent down to pick up the crutches that had fallen to the ground, and walked out of the door.
At night, she lay on the bed, the room was dark, her eyes were open and she looked at the ceiling, her hands were on the quilt, she was slightly tugging on the quilt, and she didn't know when she fell asleep.
I only knew that I had a night's dream, chaotic, one would be her running on the field stalks, the other would be the dark cell, the iron chain smashing on the ground made a heavy metal sound, and then Gu Lingxiu's expressionless face, overlapping a bloody leg that was buckled out of the bone, she was suddenly frightened awake.
His clothes were soaked with sweat, his lower body was sticky, his hand touched the sheets, and he felt a pool of blood red, and he sat up in fright, his face turned white.
She carefully lifted the quilt and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was the eldest aunt.
I got up and changed into a pair of clean pants, removed all the sheets, took a set of clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
