Chapter 17: Proposals
When I opened my eyes, the sun had already set, and the room was pitch black. What Chen Chen usually hates the most is to wake up at this time, the street lamp shines into the house through the window, the dim light and the darkness are mixed together, dull like the bottomless deep sea: dark, depressed, the sound of breathing is so clear, try hard, it seems that you can hear the sound of electricity shuttling in the wires, anytime, anywhere, you will suffocate.
And this time it wasn't, the temperature on Zhang Zhe's hand was still warm and swollen in his lower abdomen, Chen Chen turned around and faced Zhang Zhe's bright eyes,
"Awake? Does it still hurt that much? Zhang Zhe asked in a low voice.
"It doesn't hurt so much, are you awake all the time?" Zhang Zhe's arm was still the same as when she fell asleep just now, she felt a little guilty in her heart, it was dark, and she must be very tired.
Zhang Zhe's hand was taken away from her lower abdomen and gently hugged her waist, "After sleeping for a while, isn't it very comfortable if it doesn't hurt?" Drink some sugar water later, and make red date porridge for you, now your body is important, and you can eat it together when you want to eat it. Chen Chen nodded, after the pain was not there, there would still be a feeling of swelling in the lower abdomen, and the feeling of discomfort was still obvious, she was tired and didn't want to speak.
Zhang Zhe stood up and walked out, stood in the kitchen and rubbed his sore arm from being stiff for too long a few times, and began to prepare dinner. Chen Chen went to change "sanitary products", washed his hands and walked into the kitchen, Zhang Zhe was digging red date pits. She hugged Zhang Zhe's waist from behind and rested her head on Zhang Zhe's back, "So anxious to go to the meeting, is there anything that can't be solved?" ”
Zhang Zhe continued to dig the jujube core slowly, and said softly: "It's nothing, it's just preparing for the store celebration and thinking about doing something else." ”
Zhang Zhe didn't like to complain about his own problems, so he instinctively said that it was okay. After a moment of silence, he felt like he wanted to talk to her. I want to tell her everything I can tell her, and I don't want to hide it.
Zhang Zhe said slowly: "Actually, there is something wrong, the above does not plan to give us a new model, and may need me to talk to Ah Xuan." ”
Zhang Zhe's tone was a little disappointed, and he seemed to be a little unwilling and helpless, Chen Chen put his arms around his waist and pressed against his back, clearly feeling that he sighed softly. Chen Chen also responded in a low voice, "Don't you like to socialize very much, or something?" I don't know much about business, you don't put pressure on yourself, just make enough money for you. Zhang Zhe propped his hands on the table, did not turn around, and turned his back to her: "I don't know what you want, but I know what you are after." I want to give you the best, or I can give you all you want. ”
Chen Chen felt a pain in his heart, Zhang Zhe's voice was very soft, as if he was panicking, has he always gotten along with Wang Qian's family like this? I'll give you everything you want, just don't leave. It's okay to be demanded and squeezed excessively. He put on a cold face. It's as indifferent as a sign that says don't disturb the living.,Cold and indifferent to everyone.,Have you always been so embarrassed to exchange yourself for companionship?
Chen Chen pulled him around, stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Zhe's face: "Fool, I also care about what you want." You're happy to me very, heavy, to. ”
She told Zhang Zhe word by word that he was very important.
Zhang Zhe looked at Chen Chen's eyes, her eyes were very large, black and white, and her eyes staring at Zhang Zhe were very firm and serious. Zhang Zhe felt as if it was the first time that he had been stared at so seriously, he was not nervous, and he seemed to have found something to rely on, as if he could do whatever he wanted in the future.
Is it something that you have been giving? All the effort, all the results. Whatever needs me to do, I do it wholeheartedly, just hoping that there is a place for me in this family. Because it is rooted in the body, a little warmth from many years ago, I hope that I still have a chance to integrate into it, so I choose to give everything I can give, even what I can't give, I just hope not to be abandoned. It turns out that what I have always wanted is a person who can not leave for herself, a person who can embarrass her own omnipotence for herself, and a person who can say to me "You are happy more than anything else". Didn't I ever be happy?
Zhang Zhe bent down and pillowed on Chen Chen's thin shoulder: "I didn't have a life before I met you, and if you leave, I won't have any more." ”
"It's written in the book, right?" Chen Chen demolished him dissatisfied.
"Yes, but it's true that I love you" Zhang Zhe hugged Chen Chen and smiled lightly, burying his face in her hair.
"I can't say I love you, but I like you so much." Chen Chen's words that may not be distinguished by everyone at a glance, Zhang Zhe suddenly felt that her persistent and honest appearance was very cute. He straightened up and touched her hair and said, "You're still not feeling well, drink the brown sugar water, then go to the sofa and wait for me, I'll serve it to you when it's done." Chen Chen nodded and walked out of the kitchen.
It is quite good to have someone to accompany him, and Chen Chen's first uncomfortable menstrual period is not so difficult.
After dinner, Chen Chen insisted on going back to get something. Resolute attitude. Chen Chen wrapped Zhang Zhe's clean coat and covered the white shirt inside. Zhang Zhe followed behind him a little tangled, and when he walked to the door, he asked in a low voice: "Vacuum?" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment, and anxiously defended: "No, I have something to wear!" Zhang Zhe chuckled softly, took her hand and walked down.
After living for half a month, Chen Chen, who had food, drink and no need to cook, seemed to be a little unhappy. Zhang Zhe went to work during the day, she squatted at home alone to write, review, and after she was done, she watched the drama and waited for Zhang Zhe to come back. Occasionally go out for a walk together in the evening, and when she finally finishes writing the notebook she brought, she realizes that she has been here for a long time and should go back. After finishing her work, she packed up the house and waited for Zhang Zhe to come back in the evening and tell him.
After dinner, the two of them were still the same, leaning on the sofa and flipping through the books, occasionally exchanging a few words. Zhang Zhe grabbed her shoulder with one hand, and held the kindle with the other hand without saying a word. Seeing his serious appearance, Chen Chen coughed lightly: "I'll go back tomorrow." ”
Zhang Zhe blinked his eyes and raised his head to look at Chen Chen: "Unhappy to live?" ”
"No, no, I've lived for a long time, and I don't have any problems, it's time to go back." Chen Chen hurriedly waved his hand to deny it.
Zhang Zhe stared at her silently, and his eyes were serious and made Chen Chen a little hairy. Since separating from Zhang Xuan and them, it was the first time he had lived with someone else for so long. Chen Chen didn't talk a lot, so when he was in a good mood, he pounced on him and coquettishly, and saw that he always put on a sweet and greasy smile; When you are in a bad mood, you don't look at him, and your face is always serious and serious; Occasionally, when I was industrious, I would make dinner and wait for him to come back. For the first time, Zhang Zhe felt that there were people waiting for him at home, very down-to-earth, not heavy, and even felt that life was beginning to become easy for him. Zhang Zhe was a little reluctant to say goodbye to the past few days. He decided to give it a try and let her stay.
"Chen Chen?"
"Huh?"
Zhang Zhe was silent for a while, and then said, "Are you okay to move here?" ”
"Eh???" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
"Let's live together, you can live in the second bedroom, and the money you save can be saved." Zhang Zhe said softly, as if he was a little unconfident, worried that Chen Chen would refuse.
"Uh..." Chen Chen seemed to have temporarily lost his ability to speak, and used all onomatopoeia instead of answers.
"I'm not going into your room, I know you have a cleanliness fetish. I... I want you to move over, and I love seeing you every day after work. Chen Chen's sluggishness made Zhang Zhe's face a little red, and he complained to himself in his heart, he was so nervous about inviting his girlfriend to live in at the age of thirty.
"Oh... That one... It's like..."Chen Chen opened his mouth at a loss.
She wasn't ready to live with Zhang Zhe. Chen Chen doesn't like strangers to break into his life. She has always lived alone, no matter where she is, and rarely invites friends to her home. She likes to keep a lot of personal space for herself, and she doesn't like people to break in. Zhang Zhe said this suddenly, which made her a little cramped. She was very happy in the past half a month, but she was not ready to accept Zhang Zhezhen into her life.
Seeing that she hesitated, Zhang Zhe was a little disappointed, but still opened his mouth to comfort her, "It's okay, I'll send you back tomorrow." Zhang Zhe touched Chen Chen's hair, still as gentle. She didn't speak, and the atmosphere began to fall silent.
Zhang Zhe pretended not to care and continued to study. But he can see that he is a little unhappy, he still has a little difficulty reading the original English book, every day he asks Chen Chen when he gets stuck, but today he has not spoken, and the loss in his eyes cannot be concealed.
Zhang Zhe's hand was still wrapped around her shoulder. This is not very good, and the sense of satisfaction suddenly rose in Chen Chen's heart.
The next morning, after Zhang Zhe cleaned up, he stood at the door waiting for Chen Chen to come and say goodbye to him, thinking that it was the last day, Zhang Zhe's mood began to be low. Chen Chen straightened his shirt, stood on tiptoe and kissed him gently, urging him to go to work. Zhang Zhe smiled a little reluctantly, and walked to the elevator step by step.
Chen Chen found a pair of trousers and a T-shirt, put on his shoes and went out.
Zhang Zhe sat sullenly behind the desk and didn't say anything, and while Xiaoyuan was no longer there, Zhang Xuan asked, "What's wrong with you?" “
Zhang Zhe hesitated, but still told him: "Chen Chen is going to move back in." “
"Hmm..."Zhang Xuan asked in a long voice, "You told her that it would be okay to move here soon." It's very troublesome for girls to go out, and they have to bring two boxes of cosmetics. Maybe there's not enough stuff. “
"I told her, she didn't say anything, I don't want to embarrass her." Zhang Zhe replied in a muffled voice. Zhang Xuan had nothing to do about this kind of thing, and did not continue to speak.
When it was time to get off work, Zhang Zhe packed up his things and reluctantly dragged his legs down, looking like he didn't want to go home. "Bell~~~" is Chen Chen's phone, Zhang Zhe didn't want to answer it, but he clicked on it:
"I was just going back."
"You came to my house to pick me up, I packed all my things, but there are a lot, I don't think your car can fit well, I have to bring my row of shelves"
Zhang Zhe was a little overwhelmed when he listened to the phone, Zhang Xuan stood behind him and listened sincerely, and patted him on the shoulder: "Why are you stunned?" Chen Chen wants you to help her move, and I will also drive over to see if I can fit it. “
Zhang Zhe came back to his senses, showed a happy smile, and hurriedly agreed: "You wait for me"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhe changed his procrastination and trotted into the elevator. Zhang Xuan shouted behind him: "You wait for me!" “
Zhang Zhe suddenly looked anxious like a child, he smiled embarrassedly, pressed the door button to wait for Zhang Xuan, and Zhang Yuan squeezed into the elevator behind him.
By the time she arrived at Chen Chen's house, she had already packed everything. The desk was still in place, and the shelves had been dismantled and covered in foam. Chen Chen sat on the only remaining chair and drank water from a cup. Seeing Zhang Xuan and them coming over, she was a little embarrassed, put down her cup and stood up:
"If you don't pack it, stay here first, I may come back to study once in a while. I'm sure I won't move out. The rent will be for next year, otherwise it will be wasted. Chen Chen blushed a little.
"Uh-huh, we'll help you move down. I can see you together when I see Brother Zhang Zhe in the future, I'm so happy. Zhang Yuan picked up a box and ran out.
Zhang Zhe looked at Chen Chen silently, pursed his lips and smiled at her, with a smug expression on his face as if he was showing his final 'victory'. Chen Chen's face turned even redder, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "Move quickly, I have to go back to eat!" ”
Chen Chenjiao's blame made Zhang Zhe very useful, and he bent down to pick up the box and walked out.
