After the meal, Cheng You sent Xia Zhi back, and they parted in front of the alley.

Looking at Cheng You's turn-around back, Xia Zhi turned around and walked into the alley. A person walked out of her, a familiar figure and face, who is not Pan Rui?

Xia Zhi was surprised and delighted: "Why are you here?" ”

"Shouldn't I come?" Pan Rui's words seemed to imply anger.

"It's Friday!" Didn't he only come here on Saturdays?

"Why don't you answer the phone?"

"Phone?" Xia Zhi remembered that her mobile phone had been kept in her backpack, and when she was crying in Cheng You's car, her bag rested in the back seat, and she didn't notice that the phone vibrate. She took out her mobile phone and opened it to see that there were more than a dozen missed calls, all of which were from Pan Rui.

No wonder he was angry. Xia Zhi said: "I added work and just went to dinner with my colleagues, and I didn't look at my phone. ”

"What about the door lock?"

She forgot to bring the key to work on Tuesday, and when she came back, she had to find a locksmith to pick the lock and change it again, she didn't tell Pan Rui about it, she was used to solving some small troubles in life by herself, anyway, he couldn't help her.

She explained to him what happened, but his face was skeptical: "So is it a coincidence?" ”

"What coincidence?"

"I lost my temper inexplicably yesterday, and today I changed the locks, I didn't answer the phone, and I went to dinner with a man, Xia Zhi, are you a fool to me?"

Xia Zhi's eyes widened in disbelief: "Then why do you think it was such a coincidence?" Did I deliberately quarrel with you, change the lock on purpose, or answer the phone on purpose? ”

After she made her words clear, he restrained a little: "I don't know. ”

"What don't you know? Isn't that what you mean? Xia Zhi thought, Pan Rui either had water in his head, or his head was caught by the door when he came out, even if she really intended to break up, could she be so tormented?

They are separated by more than two hundred kilometers, and distance is always the most suitable reason to break up. She was spinning her mind in her heart, but the thought of "breaking up" still made her confused.

The distance made them reap the longing, and the longing was like an invisible silk thread pulling at them, covering all the inconveniences with a light veil, but once this light veil was removed, she found that their relationship was covered with knots large and small.

He couldn't give her a hug during the night when she was suffering from menstrual cramps, he couldn't walk with her at night, and he wasn't the one who rescued her from danger when she was being harassed.

He is like a migratory bird, and every round trip is a spring and autumn.

She felt her clenched teeth tremble, and she pushed her eyes wide and wide so that more tears could be contained in her sockets, and they wouldn't fall so easily.

He looked at her, and his face slowly softened: "Xia Solstice, can we talk about it well?" ”

"Pan Rui, didn't I say it well? Did you ask me what happened today? Do you know how hard it is for me to be in the company? ......" The words below were choked by a wall of air in her chest, should she tell him?

Tell someone who doesn't trust her, and then be used as another excuse?

"Guess I'm wrong, Summer Solstice. Let's not talk about this topic anymore. Pan Rui said, "Look, I know you're angry, I specially asked for leave this afternoon to come over to accompany you in advance." If you think about it, I got to the door, but I found that it wouldn't open. You didn't answer the phone, I've been waiting for you here for more than two hours. ”

In fact, if he asked, asked her what happened today, asked her what she had been wronged about, she would be willing to tell him. But he didn't.

He showed her how much and how hard he had worked for the relationship between the two, as if she hadn't given anything.

Summer Solstice was suddenly exhausted, her head, her shoulders, her torso, and her limbs fell down together, as if they were about to smash through the concrete floor and fall straight to the center of the earth. She was powerless to support her body.

She waved her hand weakly and said, "Pan Rui, do you know how tired I am? ”

He didn't understand her words, but complained: "No, it's me who came by car, and I'm the one who is waiting for you here to feed the mosquitoes." ”

"yes." She tugged at the corners of her lips, "So you're tired too, and we don't need to be that tired." ”

Pan Rui was stunned and said, "No, I have already said it, this matter is my fault." I apologize, okay? You can't talk about it anymore. ”

"There is no right or wrong between us. Forget it. Xia Zhi gently spat out those three words, it turned out that they were not as heavy as she imagined.

She walked past him into the alley, and he cried, "What do you mean?" What's the matter? ”

She turned her back to him and straightened up: "I want to be alone, is that okay?" ”

There was no sound behind her, and the concrete floor beneath her feet was as soft as cotton, and she needed to double her strength to steady her feet.

She opened the iron door and closed it, the voice-activated lights in the hallway stretched her lonely figure up the stairs. He didn't follow.

She went up to the fourth floor and into the rental house, with her back against the door, leaving herself in the dark, and she didn't want to turn on the light. He still didn't follow.

At this time, she could no longer suppress her tears, and her eyes, which were already swollen from crying, were once again soaked by this sea of bitterness.

At first, she just cried silently, tears flowing, and her nose began to fill her nasal passages, and she couldn't let the air break through her blocked nose with all her exhaustion.

She walked to the bed in the dark and sat down, pulled down a tissue and blew her nose, then another, and another...... She threw the used tissues on the floor, and she couldn't count how many she used.

She wondered how there could be endless water in people's bodies. She suspected she was going to be drained.

There was a glimmer of light outside the window, but there was no light in her heart.

Is Pan Rui gone? She thought so. She chased him away.

She found out that the phone was lit, there were no new calls and messages, he was really gone, and he left without any intention of redeeming. Maybe he had been waiting for her to say that...... Who knows.

Didn't he say that he was the one who toiled every week, and he might be more tired than her. Such a result is good for him, and good for her.

But why should she be upset? She hated that there was a corner of her heart that longed for him...... Why didn't he come back?

Xia Solstice collapsed on the bed and covered her head with a pillow. Ostriches are like this, hiding themselves and not seeing the world, and no one in this world can hurt her.

She didn't know how long it was, but she heard "dodo, dodo", two times in a row, two times each, the frequency was brisk, and the sound was heavy.

She jumped out of bed, thinking she was hallucinating. There was another knock on the door, and she confirmed that it was real.

She rushed to the door and opened it, and Pan Rui was standing outside the door.

The person she was thinking of, the one she loved.
