Chapter 16: Two Guys
After saying what he had to say, Han Xu turned his head and left.
It wasn't until he walked out of the neighborhood that his expression became softened.
He doesn't like to be taught how to be a man, because he was brought up cruelly, so he prefers to teach others how to be a man, to tell others what cruelty is, whether you are a government official in the slums, or, the high federal emperor.
After walking for a short time, Liu Qianwen's voice suddenly came from behind him.
She ran to Han Xu's side alone, and then walked with him in silence.
Her eyes were slightly red, and the vibe she conveyed was a little stiff. Han Xu didn't know what to say, so he also chose to be silent.
"My dad...... What did he tell you?" Liu Qianwen spoke after more than ten minutes, frequently looking back in the direction of her home, constantly hiding her apologies and shyness.
Now that it was getting dark, the two of them were already on their way to night school, and they still looked as normal as usual, but both of them had some other feelings in their hearts because of what had just happened.
The slum at night looks like the face of an old migrant worker who has been busy all day on the construction site, full of exhaustion and dirt, but also full of distressing trauma and vicissitudes;
The two outstanding students of the night school, like the vigorous wildflowers blooming here, remind the world that there is still life and hope in this place that has been spurned and habitually forgotten by the high people.
Han Xu shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything. ”
Sixth-class people living in slums are also a minority, and there are not many who can live in a community like Liu Qianwen, and the surrounding houses are closed early, and you can only see the shadows of some people who do bedtime washing from the houses on both sides to the road, making the road extremely deserted.
Liu Qianwen looked at Han Xu's delicate face, a little guilty, the night and the clear and narrow road set off her shoulders so well that she was a little thinner, and said, "I apologize to you on behalf of my father." ”
Han Xu glanced sideways at her, and her bright eyes looked a little different at this time.
"There's no need to apologize, it's reasonable for your dad to say something like that. If it were me, I would have said something like that. Han continued to smile.
"He's not right, it's excessive, you're fine. You...... It's good that you don't get angry. ”
"What am I angry about?" Han continued to shake his head, "The person who is angry should be your father." ”
Recalling some words, Liu Qianwen's face was slightly red, and she said, "My dad is ...... You...... I ......"
"Huh?" Han continued to look at her.
He looked at her even more embarrassed, and avoided his gaze to the side, blushing to his ears and neck, and said, "No, it's nothing." ”
Han Xu smiled slightly, took the book in her hand and hugged it into her arms, and said, "You don't have to worry too much, I don't have anything to do, your father is not angry with me, let alone humiliated, I won't change anything because of your father, I just hope I don't get angry with your father." ”
Han Xu thought about Liu Baiyuan's last look, and felt that it might be more appropriate to use "scared".
The meaning of this habitual action today seems to be different from the past, Liu Qianwen's eyes lit up slightly, and then shook her head again and again, and said: "My father is not a bad person, he just has suffered enough, and he doesn't want me to suffer anymore." ”
"Well, I understand. ”
Although they are different in age and are people of two eras, they both grew up in the slums, and the slums themselves have not changed much for more than two hundred years, so there will not be much difference in experience and views on many things, he can understand Liu Baiyuan's feelings very well, but he can't agree with his views.
"I ...... I don't mean that...... It's not that you will make me suffer......" Liu Qianwen suddenly became slightly anxious, turned her head and said hesitantly.
The dim, low wooden pole street lamp just happened to be lit up, and some detached white light brightened her face, making her pretty face look like wet white paper.
"Huh?"
Han Xu didn't quite understand why the young girls in the past were so shy today.
"I ...... I'm not saying you're going to make me suffer......"
"Huh?" her voice suddenly was as small as a cat's roar, Han Xu didn't hear it clearly, her head leaned to the side, and she smelled her hair very clearly, but she still only heard the second half of the sentence, and the logical brain figured out what she said, and after a slight whirlwind in her head, she figured out what might be alluded to inside, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Han leaned back and scratched his head a little bewildered.
Both of them walked forward silently, walking under the street lamps intertwined with mosquitoes, passing by the mottled walls of time, and at some point they walked to the school gate, and both of them stood still a little ghostly.
A number of night school students poured into the night school, and several low, gray school buildings stood within the walls, like a few people standing in the doorway watching jokes.
"You just said you wouldn't change anything because of my dad...... Really?" Liu Qianwen looked at the scattered dust and household garbage on the side of the road, and her two hands were not habitually behind Xiu's back, but hung down in front of her lower abdomen, and her fingers kept gently rubbing mechanically.
"Hmm. Han Xu nodded.
Liu Qianwen's face was red again, her eyes glanced to the side, her eyes seemed to be covered with droplets, full of tempting cowardice, "That, the sound insulation of the anti-theft door, in fact, ...... Not very good. ”
Han Xu looked at Liu Qianwen in surprise, who hung his head and said such a sentence.
It's really not very good, what Liu Baiyuan said in the house, he stood at the door and heard it clearly.
Liu Qianwen was silent for a while, and her little hand grabbed her clothes, "...... My dad's hurtful words, you, did you hear clearly?"
"Hear me clearly. ”
Do you have to make sure you hear this kind of thing clearly?Han Xu didn't feel hurt anymore, she felt inexplicably sad when she asked such a question, "What's wrong?"
"I, I mean ......"
"Huh?"
Liu Qianwen was so ashamed that her whole face was flushed, even if she lowered her head, she seemed to be able to see the blush on her pretty face.
"I mean, I can hear what you're saying clearly......" plucked up the courage to say without the slightest slurring.
The cold continued to be stunned.
"My dad asked the two of us to come out together, but he has already decided to give you a ......" Liu Qianwen's fingers grabbed the hem of the white short-sleeved shirt, as if shallow nails were going to tear through the clothes.
Even if my dad doesn't give me the slightest chance, I'll follow my original decision.
This is the second half of the sentence she can't say, but it's too sour and too shy, like a cup of honey-flavored poison, and when she says it, she will corrode her body, and all of it will be brewed in the bottom of her heart and gush back uncomfortably.
Han Xu only felt that she was about to melt into the ground if she said that her delicate body was going to turn into the ground.
"One what?"
"You!"
There is such a stupid person in the world, Liu Qianwen suddenly raised her head in anger, her eyes were red, and her pink fists were clenched together fiercely, like a crazy cat.
"Are you retarded?!" Wang Yanyan stood behind the courtyard wall outside the school gate, and couldn't bear to smash the popsicle in his hand to the ground.
"Wang Yanyan?" Han Xu turned his head.
"Brute, you can be liked by someone like you!?Liu Qianwen, you still like me!" Wang Yan roared angrily, so loud that it seemed to make the whole school quiet for an instant.
"Hello...... Like ......?"
The layer of window paper that could not be pierced for half a day was suddenly brutally torn by external forces, and both of them couldn't help but be stunned, and at the same time turned their heads to look at each other, full of shyness, just like the red hijab was lifted on the wedding night.
......
Liu Qianwen...... Cold ......"
Several students in the class were about to enter the school, and when they heard Wang Yanyan's words, they all turned their heads and stared at the two in surprise.
When several students saw that it was the two of them, the books in their hands fell to the ground, as if they had jumped into a lake because they had fallen out of love.
Liu Qianwen was so ashamed that she hurriedly turned around and ran towards the school, but she had just taken two steps before she was grabbed by Han Xu's slightly stiff hand.
Liu Qianwen looked back timidly and looked at Han Xu, who was holding five or six books in one hand. The hands involved between the two are like a magpie bridge under the night dome.
There are a lot of things, tacitly, there are a lot of things, and it comes naturally, but Han Xu has never been clear about what she thinks.
"You...... Do you like me?" Han Xu looked at Liu Qianwen in a daze.
Liu Qianwen was stunned, and her already red face couldn't help but show a little sluggishness, and there was some disbelief in those good-looking eyes, which were also like ...... Looking at an idiot.
You...... How can you ask such a question directly?!
"Why the hell are you asking such questions?" Wang Yanyan couldn't bear it, feeling that this thing was really congenitally mentally retarded, so he rushed over and kicked Han Xu's ass.
"What are you doing?" Han Xu was a little angry, but he didn't let go of the hand holding Liu Qianwen.
Wang Yanyan patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Confess in the future, remember to find me as a director, ask and then make a decision, okay?"
You should fucking say you like her or not!"
Han continued to be stunned, turned his head to look at Liu Qianwen, who had blushed to the neck of his hands, and suddenly became enlightened.
Liu Qianwen's eyes kept dodging, but it seemed that she was embarrassed everywhere, and she didn't fall anywhere.
"I like it. Han Xu said seriously to her, who was trembling slightly.
Han continued to grasp her wrist, clearly sensing her originally slightly stiff body, as if it had quietly softened.
"Yes...... Really......" she bit her lower lip with her teeth, and said timidly.
"Oh-" Wang Yanyan raised his hands and took the lead.
"Oh-"
The sound of heckling continued to rise, and soon the entire night school was drowned out.
There was a lot of coaxing in my ears, and the tide poured in.
"What about you?" said Han, taking a deep breath.
"I, I, too...... Hmm......" Liu Qianwen hurriedly turned her head sideways, gritted her teeth to prevent herself from smiling, looked at the ground, and her voice completely became a mosquito chirp, "Okay...... It's embarrassing......"
Girls are not chasing, they have their own aesthetics, they have their own three views, not what you want to get and work hard to get the doll, they will make their own judgments according to their own preferences, for the pleasing of their own appearance, for the heart and mind of the happy.
Affection is naturally there, if it weren't for nothing, such a pitiful girl wouldn't take the initiative to get close to a poor boy who had nothing, if it wasn't for it, maybe the girl with a better future wouldn't bend her waist for it.
This is the age when the spring heart sprouts, so the relationship, naturally, is liked.
Hearing her answer, Han Xu had a spring breeze smile on his face, nodded, and said, "Well, okay, it's embarrassing." ”
There is also a good one, but one stammers and one does not, and the two meanings are also melted into the hearts of both parties.
......
At the school gate, there was a happy procession, as if there was a queue to welcome relatives, and the teachers of the night school rushed out to evacuate the crowd, but they did not disperse for a long time.
After taking the lead in coaxing, Wang Yanyan took the lead in breaking away from the crowd and walked into the campus, compared to Han Xu, who has always been in the limelight, he is always like a young leaf with him, and even at this time, not many people noticed his departure.
His shoulders were a little sluggish.
"Bah-" he spat out, "Little Wang Ba Lamb, if you like me, I'll give it to you, who made me older than you, it's my brother." ”
After saying that, he shook his head and shook his head, which seemed funny and ridiculous, and while he was happy for Han Xu, he also felt countless loneliness.
"It's all trivial, but Lao Tzu is the one who wants to be the richest man in the world. Women, little things. ”
