Chapter 32: Ouyang's Confession
"Oh, Qin Nan, it's not Christmas Eve yet, it's already open to collect apples, who gave it to you? Isn't it a boy? Okay, you actually accepted a boy's gift behind my back? Ah, I'm so sad. Tong Zelin saw Danan holding the apple and said, and made a sad gesture of covering his heart as he spoke. I laughed next to me, the two of them, it was really funny.
"That is, this girl has a lot of apples, what about your warblers and swallows? You can open a store for Apple, right? Da Nan said not to be outdone.
"For you, I abandoned them, and when I turned around, I found that you were actually collecting apples from other boys, Qin Nan, how can you be worthy of my heart." As he spoke, he deliberately made the appearance of crying.
"Okay, you, hurry up and teach me a lesson, be serious." Danan hit him with an apple and said.
After I returned to my seat, I turned around and gave the apple to Su Yixuan.
"Ouyang just sent it, one for each of the three of us, this is for you." I said to him and wanted to see how he reacted.
"Well, okay, remember to thank him." He was back to his usual cold look.
I wasn't jealous, and I didn't blame me for accepting Ouyang's gift. It seems that I just know that I really regard Ouyang as a friend. That's good.
After school that night, Da Nan and I were walking and playing on the road, and the first snow always excites us. Not long after we came out of school, we heard someone calling behind us, and when we turned around, we saw Ouyang standing behind us.
"Why are you here, have you moved back home?" I looked at him in surprise and said.
"Not yet, I'm going to go home and get something, and I'm going to water the flowers at home or something, my mom said it's snowing, let me go home and see, I'll stay here by myself for one night tonight."
"Huh? Are you staying at home by yourself tonight? "I can't believe it, because in my world, I haven't had the experience of spending the night at home by myself.
"What? Are you going to come with me? Haha," Ouyang said jokingly.
"Don't make a fuss." I made it look like I was going to pinch him.
"Ouyang, how is your mother?" Danan asked. I immediately said, "yes, how is she, is she okay?" ”
"Well, it's good overall, I'm really grateful to my aunt's family, who take care of my mother every day, and always call some classmates and friends to go to the house to chat with my mother, so that she doesn't have time to think about it, but there are also bad things, that is, there are many people, this city is so big, there are no secrets at all. My mom still found out about my dad's remarriage. Ouyang lowered his head and said.
"Huh? Well, your mother ......," I asked cautiously.
"Well, my mother was very devastated after hearing about it, and I didn't sleep all night that night, I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and heard her crying in the room, I was a boy, and I couldn't empathize, and I really didn't know how to comfort her, so I sent a text message to my aunt, and my aunt came the next day, and accompanied her for a while, and she got better in the past two days, and she also smiled, she said to me today, and she went back to work after New Year's Day, and she couldn't stay."
When Ouyang said this, there was a little sadness in his eyes, and he felt as if he had grown up a lot and matured a lot.
"Well, it's good to go to work, the books say that if you stay alone for a long time, you will get sick and can't stay, so you still have to go out and contact society." Da Nan said to Ouyang.
"Yes, I originally wanted to tell you today that I would go with you at night, but I forgot about it, so I hurried after it." Ouyang said.
"By the way, thank you for today's apple." I said to him.
"You see, it's polite again, and you're welcome." Ouyang said with a little "resentment".
"Hehe, it was Su Yixuan who asked me to say it for him." I said to him.
"Oh, it's okay, we're all friends, you're welcome."
We were still the same as before, chatting all the way about school, talking about the disgusting questions we had encountered recently, and the English words that we couldn't remember. Especially now that it's still snowing lightly and the ground is creaking, it feels like it's been a long time, and the three of us enjoy the way home.
After sending Da Nan downstairs, Ouyang and I walked for another while, and Ouyang suddenly grabbed my arm and startled me. He said to me, "Mo Yuhan, I have something to say to you." ”
"What's wrong?" I asked, puzzled.
He patted the snow on my hat and said, "Look at you like a child, wearing such a childish hat." ”
The hat I wore today was bought two years ago, and I had two small ears, which felt a little childish, and I smiled at him.
He continued: "Mo Yuhan, you like Su Yixuan, right? ”
I instantly felt my face flush, how did he know, could it be that the two of us usually did something obvious? Not really.
"You, how do you know?" I asked him with a trembling voice.
"Every time you talk about him and look at him, your eyes are very bright and loving, although I am a boy who doesn't know much about these things, but I can see that you should like him."
"Ah, that's right." I said it by default.
"It's true, I'm not really sure, but looking at your expression now, I'm also sure." He said to me with a curled corner of his mouth.
"Ah, you're kidding me." I said a little "angry" and was going to go home.
"No, no, in fact, it's almost confirmed, but when I hear you say it yourself, it still feels different. Mo Yuhan, in fact, ......"
I feel like I can guess what he's going to say next, what should I do? Shall I speak up before him? What should we do, can we still be friends after we say it? Won't it be uncomfortable.
Just when my mind was knotted, Ouyang continued: "Actually, I really don't want to be friends with you only. But after getting in touch with you, I realized that I probably prefer to be friends with you, especially if you like him now. As for me, the things at home have already made me a little overwhelmed, so I won't mess up our relationship for the first time. But remember, one day, when we grow up, I'll continue to chase you. Now, let's not stress too much and get along like good friends. I know, he should have feelings for you too, don't worry, I won't be fine, we can continue to play together in the future, okay? ”
"Ouyang, thank you for your understanding, and thank you for your honesty. Also, I'm sorry. I said with my head down.
"What are you sorry for, don't talk nonsense, let's go, the snow is going to fall heavily." With that, he pulled down my sleeve.
When I got home, I was thinking about what Ouyang had said to me, and I was also thinking about Ouyang as a person. He's really a gentleman, he's pretty good, and there must be a lot of girls who like him. It's a pity that there is someone who lived in that place in my heart before you, otherwise, I would definitely be attracted to you. I hope we can always be good friends, always the same.
