CHAPTER XXXV
He Yi was interrupted by the phone ringing, she glanced at the phone, it was Song Pingsheng calling, and when she connected, she only said: "Xiao Yu, open the door." ”
She tidied up her pajamas, turned on the light and ran to open the door, and saw Song Pingsheng carrying a bag of takeaway boxes, with some light sweat on his forehead, He Yi hurriedly pulled him in, took out two tissues and stood on tiptoe to wipe his sweat, and asked him: "It's so late, why did you go?" Running so sweaty. ”
Song Pingsheng picked up the takeaway box and showed her, "Didn't you say you were hungry?" I bought you noodles at a Chinese restaurant. ”
He Yi was slightly stunned, "Actually, I can bear it, it's not safe for you to run over so late......"
Thinking that he ran to buy her noodles without hesitation because he was hungry, a warm current flowed out of his heart. At the very least, it can be proved that he cares about her.
Song Pingsheng pulled her to the table, opened the takeaway box and handed it to her, "Anyway, it's an acquaintance, and it's not far away." Besides, you can't be hungry, you can try it, this shop is very authentic. ”
He Yi looked at the bowl of noodles in front of him, accompanied by a poached egg, and couldn't help but feel sad. I've been out for a week, and I haven't been able to eat a serious meal, thinking about it, I suddenly feel that I am hypocritical again, and I can't bear it for a week.
She picked up the chopsticks, ate two bites, and couldn't help but gulp them into her mouth, and asked with a look of surprise, "Where did you buy this?" ”
Song Pingsheng chuckled, "I know that you love to eat Liangcheng noodles, the proprietress of this shop is from Liangcheng, and she makes noodles, and there are many dishes, which are particularly authentic." It's on this street, not far from here, and I'll take you there tomorrow. ”
He Yi looked satisfied, and nodded again and again, "Okay." How did you know about that store? ”
"A college classmate came to the United States to do business and settled here, and I only learned about his wife opening a store here a few days ago."
Song Pingsheng opened another takeaway box, sandwiched the poached egg on her box, and began to eat it.
He Yi looked at the two poached eggs on the top of the box blankly, and suddenly smiled, a shallow smile hung on his lips, and his eyes suddenly moistened.
She remembered that when she was in the Song family, every time she ate noodles, Song Pingsheng loved to put eggs in her bowl, not because she didn't like to eat them, but because her brother took care of her sister, and then gradually, it became a habit.
Song Pingsheng saw that her eyes were red, and he instantly became in a hurry, took out a tissue to wipe her tears, and asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?" Why are you still crying? ”
"It just occurred to me...... In the past, you always liked to give me poached eggs, and every time you ate noodles, you would give me ......" He Yi choked.
"Fool, does that move you?" Song Pingsheng scratched her nose, "You are really a little crying bag." ”
He Yi's cheeks were slightly red, and he continued to eat noodles with his head buried in his head, only to feel that his actions just now were really embarrassing.
Song Pingsheng looked at her flustered appearance and unconsciously bent his eyes.
"Pingsheng, do you remember Shen Qianqiu and Ji Hengzhi?" He Yi remembered the past memories he had just reminisced about lying on the bed, and suddenly asked.
Song Pingsheng was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Why did you suddenly ask about them?" ”
"That's it...... Suddenly remembered, didn't they always like to go to your room to do their homework? ”
"Well, we haven't seen each other in a long time." Song Pingsheng put down his chopsticks, "Farewell to the third year of high school, I haven't seen it again." ”
He Yi paused, "Why don't you get in touch?" ”
"I went abroad, and at first I was able to get in touch with Chiaki by email, but gradually, I had a life, and my feelings faded, and there was less contact."
He only mentioned Shen Qianqiu, but did not involve Ji Hengzhi.
"That'...... Ji Hengzhi? ”
Hearing the name Ji Hengzhi, Song Pingsheng suddenly sighed, "It's me who is sorry for him." ”
He Yi stroked his hand, "Pingsheng, it wasn't your fault that incident back then, you also went to the teacher, so-"
"Because I was too calm, I felt that it was not a good way to be hard-hitting, so I went to the teacher." Song Pingsheng's eyes were a little hollow, "Later, Hengzhi disappeared, I heard that he didn't even take the college entrance examination, and went back to his hometown to take care of his parents, I once asked someone to inquire, but there was no news at all, and it was only after this time that I learned that my understanding of Hengzhi was only limited to classmates, I only knew his name, knew his gender, and knew his tragic family history." When he disappeared, I found out that I didn't know where his hometown was, who his sister was who had been sending him to school, and where he lived during his school days. ”
When He Yi heard this, he didn't know what to say for a while.
She never knew that Ji Hengzhi had experienced so many ...... Some people's youth may enjoy all that their families have given them and spend their best years, but some people are destined to give more than others and experience pain that others have not yet understood, just like a seed living in a harsh environment, poking its head out of the hard ground with difficulty. Their youth, there is no relaxed entertainment after the exam, there is no graduation travel after the college entrance examination, some are just catching up after the busy, fighting against fate, and thinking about various ways to make a living after studying every day. There is no entertainment, only a heart that does not admit defeat.
"Back then, when I watched him surrounded by a group of people, I can't forget the helpless and desperate eyes, sometimes I feel that I am quite cowardly, if I could be brave enough to stand in front of him at that time, will the ending be different?" Song Pingsheng muttered to himself, "After that incident, I remembered the names of that group of people, when I was in Jiangcheng, I met Mo Chengyu, because of this incident, I had some hatred for him, but in fact, ...... It's myself who I hate. ”
He Yi recalled the scene back then, a group of people surrounded Ji Hengzhi, and his appearance of squatting in the corner was like a frightened lamb, which made people feel pity. And among that group of people, there is Mo Chengyu.
Those people will never know if their actions will change or destroy other people's lives.
He Yi comforted him, "Pingsheng, you also did what you should do, we chose the wisest way, you are very smart, you choose to tell the teacher immediately instead of fighting them." I think...... If you had chosen to come forward at the beginning, Ji Hengzhi was afraid that he would have been hurt even more. Taking a step back, Ji Hengzhi's disappearance may be another difficulty, I believe that if it is not a very important matter, he will not give up the college entrance examination easily. ”
Ji Hengzhi in his memory, although he is not a very brave person, has persistence that is rare for ordinary people. His dedication to this exam is very clear to everyone who knows him, so it is really hard to fathom that he disappeared and gave up this exam.
Life will face a variety of choices, and Ji Hengzhi's choice, no one can judge whether it is right or wrong.
"I hope so." Song Pingsheng picked up the chopsticks, "Okay, let's eat noodles, it's not delicious when it's cold." ”
After the two finished eating, they went back to their rooms to rest. The next morning, Song Pingsheng conjured up all kinds of Chinese pastries like magic.
He Yi was a little surprised, thinking of the store that Song Pingsheng said last night, his heart was full of curiosity, and he couldn't wait to finish work and find out.
After breakfast, Song Pingsheng sent her to work, on the way she pointed to various buildings, and said happily: "Look here, this is the first photo I sent you, and here, I took all these pictures and sent them to you......"
Song Pingsheng saw her bouncing, just smiled at her and touched the soft hair on the top of her head.
After arriving at the company, He Yi bumped into the person in charge of the project, a young American woman, who got along with them for a few days, and she had a cheerful personality, He Yi also liked her personality very much, and the two had more contact. Seeing them coming hand in hand, the woman was obviously stunned, and when they approached, she opened her mouth slightly and asked in English, "Your boyfriend?" ”
He Yi nodded with a smile and looked sideways at Song Pingsheng, "This is the person in charge of our project this time, Chesie." Smiling at Chesie, "Chesie, this is my boyfriend, Dylan."
Song Pingsheng stretched out his right hand in a friendly manner, "Hello, I'm Dylan."
Chesie stretched out her left hand, held it lightly and let it go, her red lips slightly hooked, "No wonder Linda has no master every day, she doesn't like to be close to people, I thought she was a cold person, but I didn't expect it to be a sweetheart, you see you smiling like a flower." ”
Song Pingsheng smiled, his eyes glanced at her as if he didn't seem to be there, and he held her hand even harder, "Thank you for taking care of her these days, she is going abroad for the first time, and I hope you will take care of her if there is anything she doesn't understand." ”
He is embarrassed.
Chesie winked at He Yi, and then looked back at Song Pingsheng, "I think you're more like her father than being her boyfriend, and you can care about everything." Don't worry, I'll take good care of her in the company. ”
Song Pingsheng looked at He Yi with a playful expression.
He Yi was embarrassed again.
Since being with Song Pingsheng, she has taken care of her usual subtleties, doing everything herself, coaxing her every day without any temper, and offering her like a daughter, as if she was revealing nothing...... Similar to the care of father's love, could this be the so-called father's boyfriend?
After Chesie entered the company, He Yicai reluctantly said goodbye to Song Pingsheng, Song Pingsheng hugged her and said softly: "Okay, I'll come to pick you up tonight, you can work with peace of mind." ”
He Yi looked at his back as he drifted away.
The boy in his memory seems to have grown up all of a sudden, and he has grown into the tall appearance in front of him, but his back is not as high-spirited as before, and now Song Pingsheng has more of the glory of carrying the years.
He has become more mature and more stable, but the childish boy he was back then no longer seems to be.
The baggage on him kept increasing, as he grew up......
And in the future, I hope that I can be with him...... Carry the weight forward.
