Maybe it's because I'm too excited, or maybe it's because the thunder is too loud outside, but I can't sleep. In desperation, I had to take out my mobile phone and drive again. ran seven or eight laps, and the time was a little closer, but suddenly received Xie Liuying's WeChat again

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

I guess I saw my game online, so I asked.

"The thunder was loud, noisy, excited, and I couldn't sleep." I'll be honest.

Normally, at this time, people will ask, "What are you excited about?" Although it may be a little knowing, it is the only way to say it, which is the most in line with social etiquette and the most likely to keep the conversation going.

However, after waiting for a long time, the other party did not reply, so I had to unilaterally push forward the dialogue.

"What about you, why didn't you sleep again?"

After waiting for a long time, there was still no news.

Could it be that she fell asleep on her own? That's what I guessed.

Me: "Did you sleep?" ”

Xie Liuying: "No. ”

This time, it's a second back, what is she doing?

Although I don't want to overcomplicate things before I play professionally, after all, I am strong in blood, and I think of many cases that have been inferior to "mocking beasts". With the double blessing of thief's heart and thief's courage, I put on my pajamas, walked out of the bedroom, and knocked on Xie Liuying's door.

I kept reminding myself, "I'm a decent gentleman, and I don't think anything about it, just to see how my teammates are doing." ”

No one inside answered, and after a while, the door opened a crack, and Xie Liuying was standing in her pajamas with red eyes. When she saw that it was me, she turned on the anti-leeching chain.

In the middle of the night, entering the girl's boudoir is the most exciting thing. But looking at her expression, I cleaned up the fawn just now. It was fine just now, but now it seems like I've cried.

I hesitated into the house, not knowing what had happened. She closed the door, suddenly hugged me from behind, and burst into tears.

What's going on?

But my doubts were soon interrupted by the sudden physical contact, how could I, a virgin who had been single for nearly twenty years, ever seen such a stance. For a moment, there was no other concept in my mind except "her body is so soft".

But I knew that this was not the time to make a mistake, so I turned around, took her in my arms, rested her head on my cheek, and comforted, "Good, don't cry, don't cry." ”

But I wondered very much in my heart, crying like this, it couldn't be that I was scared to cry by thunder.

Xie Liuying's hair smelled of delicate shampoo, and I asked, "What's going on?" Why are you crying? ”

She escaped from my arms and sat on the edge of the bed, sobbing and speechless.

This is the first time I've seen her like this, no, it's the first time I've seen someone of the opposite sex my age like this, inexperienced, plus I got too little information, I don't know what to do with it.

I had to sit on the bed and sit next to her.

After a long time, she spoke: "My grandmother also died on such an autumn thunderstorm night. ”

Oh, it turned out that I missed my deceased grandmother alone at night, and it's no wonder that without this great old man, Xie Liuying would not be where he is today.

H City is not far from Xie Liuying's hometown Y City, and has a similar climate and geographical environment. The autumn rain back then may have a very high similarity with today's one.

So the question is, what shall I say?

"The deceased is gone, and the festival mourns and changes"?

This kind of cliché is obviously neither sincere nor effective, and I don't think I'm a clumsy person, but I feel that it's useless to say anything at this time.

I finally had to nod stiffly, indicating that I understood.

Xie Liuying turned her head to stare at my face: "She was killed by me." ”

What's going on? It seems that she is crying like this, not only sad, but also guilty.

At this time, the most important thing is to take a stand: "No, no, it must have nothing to do with you." ”

Xie Liuying lowered her head and twitched and said, "That day...... That night, my grandmother got out of bed and got up at night, but she suddenly suffered a stroke and collapsed. But I slept so hard that I didn't hear anything outside. When I wake up the next morning...... Grandma just ...... She ......"

I touched her hand.

Xie Liuying: "Later, I learned that if I had found out earlier and sent her to the hospital, my grandmother would not have died." ”

Me: "I don't blame you, since it's thundering, it's normal for the movement outside to be blocked by the nervous system, and it's impossible for me to react." ”

Xie Liuying looked at me: "Really? ”

"Really, I rely on biology to get points, and I won't lie to you." For the first time since I met her, today is the first time I feel like a little girl.

Xie Liuying: "I miss her so much......"

It is said that women are emotional animals, and for such a long time, Xie Liuying has been taking care of me, a dead straight man, and generally speaking, the communication between the two of us is mainly rational. Yuntian once told me that the friendship between men depends on sharing interests, and the friendship between women depends on sharing feelings. At this time, only empathy can comfort her to the greatest extent.

Then, I told in detail how my grandparents were kind to me, how sad I was when they died, and how I finally got out of my sadness, people always have to look forward, life is a lonely journey, and few people can accompany us for a lifetime.

In fact, they are all big truths that she understands very well, but when she says them in this situation, the big truths are also very cute.

I said a lot, it seems that it really has some effect, and Xie Liuying's mood seems to be more stable. Then, I heard one of the most shocking words of my life.

Xie Liuying: "Chen Liao, just tonight, can you sleep with me?" ”

It's a shame that it's dark now, otherwise I'd love to see what kind of expression I'd be on at the moment.

Xie Liuying: "But you have to promise me that I can't do anything, just hold it." ”

Everyone is an adult, and it is very efficient to communicate in an adult way. God knows, if I really get permission to "do something", there is a high probability that I will be like what was said in the Spring Festival Gala sketch, and I will directly pull it over.

Me: "Oh, okay. ”

I felt that there seemed to be a strange embarrassment and reluctance in my tone, and this kind of dreamlike plot was a little too unreal for me.

We got into bed and she naturally rested her head on my arm.

It's strange that the expected throbbing and anxiety did not come, but I felt very relieved, and by the light outside, I looked at Xie Liuying's slightly closed eyelids, and remembered the words of the hooligan Xu Zhimo: "I want to wake up with you every morning." ”

……

Early the next morning, Xie Liuying ignored the fact that I was still rubbing my arm that was already sore, and immediately turned her face and didn't recognize anyone

"If you dare to tell me what happened last night, you're dead."

"Understood, understood." I'm submissive.
