35. Out of Control (3)
Xia Linchen froze for a moment, and suddenly looked at the person in his arms.
There was only a blur of light and shadow in front of him, which made him suddenly feel a little powerless.
He gently let go of his favor, remembering that night half a year ago.
He said that he would do what she wanted, and naturally he would ask her about her wishes.
Because he wasn't sure if she wanted a moment or a lifetime.
Zhong Yi said, "Until the summer of the next year, when I graduate, let's give it a try." ”
She's also gambling to see if she can drag him out of her shell.
So they agreed to get along like an ordinary couple during this period, and when she graduated, she would leave the choice to him.
Whether you want it or not, it's up to him to read it.
In the past six months, I have lived peacefully, and now I like to mention this agreement, why?
Zhongyi bent down to pick up his sandals and swept the sand off them in the sea.
"Xia Linchen, I'm very greedy, if it's just someone who gets you, it's not enough for me to be satisfied." Zhong Yi smiled self-deprecatingly, "There are still some days, I hope you will give me an answer after thinking about it." ”
"You've got to let me know if our time together was just my wishful thinking and self-deception, or if you can do it, with all my heart and soul that I demand."
As soon as the words fell, there was no sound except for the sound of the waves and the faint noise of fighting in the distance.
Zhong Yi bit his lower lip and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Emotional matters really can't be forced.
She turned her back to the man she had been thinking about.
So, she didn't know that someone was frowning and trying to grab her wrist but she was in the air.
***
I didn't have the mood to play in the water, and when I returned to the villa, I happened to bump into Cai Xiaotan who was boiling water in the kitchen. She chin against Nunu in the room and asked in a low voice, "The legendary Mr. Elite?" ”
Cai Xiaotan nodded and motioned for her to talk in another place.
The two of them hid in the kitchen, Cai Xiaotan took the electric kettle and took the water, put it on the base, and then turned his head and asked Zhongyi: "Where is Xia Linchen?" ”
Zhong Yi briefly said the conversation just now, and then the two of them walked back all the way without saying a word, and met He Chuchen and Xia Yunshen, He Chuchen smiled and pulled "Uncle Xia" away, leaving her alone, and went back to the villa alone.
Cai Xiaotan nodded her forehead, and the smile between her lips could not be hidden: "How can I smell a smell of vinegar-"
Zhongyi grabbed her fingers and interrupted her jokes. She hung her head and said with a wistful voice: "Xiaotan, I am ...... Fear. ”
Cai Xiaotan is the person who knows the agreement between Zhongyi and Xia Linchen best, this is the relationship she has seen all the way, because the bystanders are clear, but they can see it more thoroughly than the two parties.
is intended to be a warrior in love, but Xia Linchen is a coward. He can see other people's feelings like fire, and when things come to himself, he sees flowers in the fog.
She is naturally partial to Zhongyi, Xia Linchen's character, she suffers in her relationship, and she is not happy even if she is happy.
Zhong Yi returned to the room, since Cai Xiaotan was going to be with Mr. Elite, she was living with He Chuchen this time. And He Chuchen is the owner of this villa, her bedroom is much larger than the guest bedroom, and the beds are slightly larger than ordinary double beds. Her luggage hadn't moved yet, He Chuchen had to change into swimsuits, her suitcase was scattered, and her makeup bag was thrown on the bed at random.
Zhongyi smiled, helped her put away the things that had fallen out, and then climbed into bed and lay down.
Zhongyi originally thought that he was not sleepy, but he accidentally fell asleep while lying down, and he had a dream.
Xia Linchen in the dream could see her, his eyes were bright, his eyes locked on her, he praised her for being beautiful, and then turned around and walked towards another woman without hesitation.
She chased after her and asked why, but Xia Linchen replied indifferently: "You are already very good, so you don't need me to add icing on the cake." ”
After Zhongyi woke up, he wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, what kind of inexplicable dream is this......
Zhong Yi looked sideways and sat up in shock, there was still someone in the room.
As she moved, a large thin sunscreen suit slipped off her body.
Xia Yunshen walked over, bent down and picked up his clothes, and when he saw that Zhongyi was still looking at him, he also blinked, took out a tissue from the paper drawer at the bedside and handed it to her.
"Thank you." Zhong Yi took it, sat on the edge of the bed to wipe his sweat, looked up and asked, "What about them?" ”
"Your classmates are preparing the ingredients for the evening, and my brother is resting in the room." Xia Yunshen hung his clothes on his arm and shook the things in his other hand, "I'll find something for He Chuchen and wake you up, I'm sorry." ”
"It's okay." Zhong Yi hurriedly waved his hand and hurriedly jumped out of bed, "Then I'll go and help too." ”
Xia Yunshen saw her bare white and small feet looking for sandals all over the ground, and silently hooked the corners of her mouth.
If half a year ago, he still had some likes and fondness, but with the deliberate avoidance of the two, it has almost disappeared now.
At the beginning, he knew that on the night he came back from the playground, Xia Linchen proposed to give it a try, and he was shocked, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was stunned. He originally wanted to help Zhongyi, but he still contradictoively had a little selfishness, thinking that he had messed things up, who knew that the peak was turning, and he was crooked.
He really hoped that Xia Linchen would be able to come out, and Zhong Yi was a good possibility.
He's just a little less lucky, the girl he has a good impression of, and the person he likes wholeheartedly is his brother.
Sometimes when he was alone, he would wonder if the situation would have been different if he had met him first.
Then, in the silence, laughing at himself for thinking too much.
He is not Xia Linchen, he is more like their common father, so he is not that great. Even if he was given a chance to stand on the side of the road where the car was speeding away, it was hard to say whether he would sacrifice his life to save Zhong Yi in the first place.
Fate is wonderful, and some things may be fate.
"There." Detached from his own thoughts, he kindly reminded her, pointing in the direction behind her.
The light in this room was very dim, and I liked to open the curtains, only to find that it was already half dark, and I had slept all afternoon.
Zhong Ran, went to the bathroom in the bedroom to tidy up his hair, washed his face again, and when he came out, Xia Yunshen was no longer there.
When I went out, I happened to bump into Sister Bao, who was walking recklessly, and the two of them almost collided, and Sister Bao exclaimed in surprise and almost burst her eardrums.
"What are you running......" Zhong Yi sighed.
Sister Bao showed her the things in her hand and said, "I don't want to either, your Xia Meiren seems to be a little uncomfortable, won't I bring him warm water......
"What's wrong with Xia Linchen?" Zhong Yi frowned, his tone worried.
"It seems to be a sea breeze, a little low-grade fever." Sister Bao was anxious, took her arm, and dragged her to Xia Linchen's room, "What is the specific, you can come and have a look." ”
But she didn't know that the two of them had broken up unhappily, and at this time, she hadn't adjusted her mood yet, and she didn't really want to see Xia Linchen.
Sister Bao is tall and long-legged, and soon pushed Zhongyi into the room, and she hurriedly stepped back, sticking out her tongue and winking at Zhongyi: "Little fox, there is still something in the kitchen, I'll withdraw first!" ”
Zhongyi looked at her rapidly disappearing back, smiled helplessly, and walked in with the water.
Xia Linchen and Xia Yunshen brothers live in the same room, He Chuchen is really partial to Xia Yunshen, except for the one they live in, the whole villa is the largest in area and the best lighting.
Xia Linchen closed his eyes, not knowing if he was asleep, and his expression was very quiet.
Zhong Yi glanced at it a few times, walked over and placed the water cup on the cabinet next to him, and before she could wake him, he had already opened his eyes, a pair of calm but unfocused eyes that were tilted in her direction.
"Zhongyi, is that you?"
Zhong Yi said "um" and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Xia Linchen could hear the footsteps of familiar people, she was one of them, and she didn't know whether to be glad about it.
Zhong Yi asked, "You didn't fall asleep?" ”
Xia Linchen replied: "I couldn't see anything when I opened it, so I closed my eyes and lay down for a while." ”
Xia Linchen sat up on the bed, and helped set the pillow, but when he heard this, he let go unhappily and threw the pillow back.
The movement was a little big, and Xia Linchen also felt it, so he didn't say anything.
She rarely lost her temper, and Xia Linchen's depression due to the headache seemed to be lessened, and she straightened the pillow by herself, and then half leaned on it.
He palmed his palms upward, his palms spread out on the surface of the bed, and they had agreed a long time ago that this meant to hold hands.
Xia Linchen told her: "I can't see you, and many times I can't accurately perceive your feelings, nor can I accurately judge your location." ”
"If you want to go away, I don't have what it takes to catch you."
"So when you have affection, I hope you don't choose to walk away with anger."
The lonely look in his tone was still in his ears, and Zhong Yi suddenly felt the state of mind when he said this.
He is not a god, just an ordinary person, and he will be flustered because he can't see.
Zhong Yi put his hand up, and Xia Linchen's five fingers were closed and wrapped firmly.
Zhong Yi felt the strength of his fingers, the warmth of his palm, and suddenly gave birth to courage and asked the question she had avoided for a long time.
"Xia Linchen, do you like me?"
After a long time, Xia Linchen sighed: "I like it, but I don't know if this is a lifetime." ”
He clenched his grip as if he was afraid that she would leave, and then continued: "Favor, my mother and my father...... At the beginning, it was also free love. It was hard at first, but they were happy. She had a big belly, and when she accompanied that person to start from scratch, she didn't expect that people's hearts would be fickle, and she said that she would be good for a lifetime, but she didn't expect that in a few years, she would already be a person. ”
"Therefore, I don't believe in love so much, and I don't believe in the so-called eternity and life. I used to like Cheng Ko, I liked Su Yan before he appeared, I didn't have no chances, but I didn't even fight for it. You've said before that I'm a coward, and you're right, I'm really scared. ”
"I'm afraid that once I make a commitment, whether I change or you change, it will cause harm."
"I know it's irresponsible to stall, but please give me some time......," he said and smiled, "for our future." ”
"Okay." Zhong Yi thought, anyway, I've waited so long, and it's not too long.
"Not angry? So we're reconciled? Xia Linchen tilted his head and asked, with a sense of grievance in his tone.
Zhong Yi couldn't help laughing, picked up the water and medicine and stuffed them into his arms, and said angrily, "You took the medicine first." ”
***
In the evening, the main event of the party was the fact that the boys lit a bonfire, and when there were more people, they divided into two piles, and a group of people sat in a large circle and made a fuss.
It's all young people, so naturally it's impossible to sit and play games together.
The other team was already playing very high, but they were cold on their side, so Song Yaling said: "Why don't you play Truth or Dare?" ”
No one objected, and Song Yaling announced the start.
The first lottery is the favor.
A petite and quiet girl in the class couldn't help but ask curiously: "Zhongyi, what do you like about Mr. Xia?" ”
Zhong Yi glanced at Xia Linchen beside him, and replied generously with a smile: "I like everything, he used to be my savior." ”
Zhong is very frank, and she does not shy away from the fact that the original source of her feelings for Xia Linchen is gratitude.
A male classmate whistled: "He is a hero to save the United States, and you promise to each other again, it's really a good story." ”
After two or three rounds, it was Xia Linchen's turn to be recruited.
Xia Linchen was also familiar with this kind of game, so he said, "You ask." ”
"I'll come." The senior surnamed Liu seized this opportunity, Song Yaling whispered a word in his ear, and after hearing it, he raised his voice and shouted at Xia Linchen who was directly opposite, "Why are you blind?" ”
The question he asked was extremely disrespectful to Xia Linchen, not to mention his attitude.
Zhong Yi was furious, and was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Xia Linchen.
Xia Linchen shook his head slightly, and said to everyone with a smile: "I'm sorry, I don't want to answer this question, I admit punishment." ”
The previous rule was that if you couldn't answer, you would be punished in pairs. Senior Liu and Song Yaling looked at each other and smiled, and said, "I'm a person, and I can be regarded as a gentleman, so I won't be embarrassed by Zhong Da Beauty." You're the only one to be punished, okay? ”
Xia Linchen bowed: "Of course you can." ”
"As long as you don't rely on others to go around this campfire three times, we will count you through." Song Yaling's tone was aggressive, and the classmates who didn't know the entanglement all quieted down and looked at each other.
The surrounding silence was so quiet that there was only the sound of burning firewood, and Song Yaling continued to add fuel and vinegar: "Mr. Xia, why don't you make a sound, or do you not dare?" It's okay for you and Zhong to admit defeat, we are very generous and will not laugh at you, right, Brother Liu? ”
Senior Liu, who had just lost face, hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, we still don't care about bullying a blind man." ”
Zhong Yi saw Xia Linchen's eyes that had lost their brilliance, his eyes were sour, and he was almost about to cry.
Xia Linchen was because of her, so she would let Song Yaling give and ask for it with malice. She swore that one day, she would keep those eyes shining.
Xia Linchen propped himself up, squatted in front of her, whispered something to her, shook his hand affectionately, and forcibly forced back the tears.
Xia Linchen patted the top of her head gently, stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and slowly approached with the sound of "crackling".
Song Yaling sneered and said, "Mr. Xia, slow down, don't burn yourself." ”
He Chuchen has always been at odds with her, and choked out: "When did you become so kind?" ”
"I'm so embarrassed, it's not your turn to care. He Chuchen, let's take care of yourself first. ”
He Chuchen didn't bother to pay attention to her, turned his head and pushed Xia Yunshen: "Is your brother okay?" ”
Xia Yunshen is there: "What do you think? ”
"I think Uncle Xia is a very bad person, and it's not good to offend him." He Chuchen still remembered the time when Xia Linchen joked that he wanted to marry her, she calculated him, he seized her weakness and hit her back.
This kind of Xia Linchen is very similar to Zhongyi, where can Song Yaling's IQ be bullied?
Xia Linchen's hearing is much more sensitive than ordinary people, but in fact, this kind of difficulty is nothing at all. In less than a minute, he easily completed the opponent's difficulty. Zhong Yi called out to him, and he walked up to her, sitting back down beside her.
Feng Shui took turns, and after two rounds, it was Song Yaling's turn.
Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding, no one asked her questions, and they were all waiting for Xia Linchen to speak.
Xia Linchen smiled and asked, "Then tell me what you really thought when you let me walk three laps just now, isn't this difficult, Miss Song?" ”
Song Yaling's face was pale, her smile was a little stiff, and he deliberately emphasized the word "true", forcing her to answer. But how could she say what she really thought, saying in front of her classmates that she had been unaccustomed to her love for a long time, and wanted to use all means to trample her on the soles of her feet.
This certainly cannot be said.
After a long time, she smiled and said, "I choose not to answer." ”
"Oh," Xia Linchen said indifferently, "then please go around the bonfire three times with that Mr. Liu blindfolded." ”
