Chapter 30: Uncertainty in Certainty
She turned and went into the bathroom, stood in front of the washbasin, held the water in her hands, and washed her face.
He reached out again and picked up the cleanser, squeezed out the bean-sized paste, rubbed it on the palm of his hand and rubbed it.
"How long will it take for Mr. Li to arrive?" Gao Jingen carried the clothes to dry, walked from the balcony to the bedroom, and asked Liu Xia in the bathroom in a loud voice.
"Hmm...... Half an hour. After Liu Xia finished speaking, he held water in his hand and cleaned the foam on his face.
"Well, okay, you dry your clothes, put them on the sofa, don't forget to bring them into your room." Gao Jingen put Liu Xia's clothes on the sofa and carried his clothes back to the room.
"I see...... Liu Xia replied with his eyes closed, reaching for the towel that wiped his face.
"25 minutes left, are you alright?" Gao Jingen walked out of the bedroom with the quilt and closed the bedroom door.
"I've washed up, do you want to dry the quilt?" Liu Xia came out of the bathroom.
"Well, yes, I had a fever last night, I sweated a lot, and the quilt was a little damp." Gao Jingen replied to Liu Xia as he walked to the balcony.
"Well, you're busy, let the girl go back to the room to dress up for a while." Liu Xia pinched the orchid fingers, assumed a singing pose, and walked to the room with small steps.
Gao Jingen looked at Liu Xia's cute appearance, couldn't help laughing directly, and said in his heart: "She is still the lively and lovely Liu Xia, and she hasn't changed at all." ”
After drying the quilt, Gao Jingen walked to the bathroom with a bath towel, turned his head and said loudly to Liu Xia's bedroom: "Give me ten minutes, I'll be fine soon!" ”
After Gao Jingen finished speaking, he walked into the bathroom, hung the bath towel on the hook on the wall, and then took off the clothes that smelled of alcohol.
He turned on the shower and tilted his cheeks, letting the warm water spray freely on his short black and shiny hair, and the water flowed down his neck, over his strong chest and broad back.
Gao Jingen stretched out his hand to close the valve of the shower, and the water flow of the shower instantly became smaller, like a column of water falling down the eaves when it rained.
He pressed twice on the pump of the shampoo bottle, and the cherry blossom-colored liquid flowed into the palm of his hand in an instant, and those syrupy liquids were rubbed into a thick foam by him with his palm, the smell was fresh and good, Gao Jingen grabbed the short hair with his hands full of foam.
Taking advantage of the time for the shower to rinse his hair, Gao Jingen squeezed the toothpaste on the toothbrush, closed his eyes, and brushed his teeth seriously and quickly.
The smell of wine remaining on the body was gently washed away by the rushing water, Gao Jingen pulled up the bath towel hanging on the wall, wiped the wet short hair and the water droplets on his body, and then wrapped his lower body with a bath towel.
Liu Xia, who was ready for everything, saw Gao Jingen shirtless as soon as she came out of the bedroom, her eyes dodged, and she turned around and went back to her room.
Gao Jingen didn't see Liu Xia's expression, but simply thought that Liu Xia had forgotten something in the bedroom, so he turned around and went back to get it.
Liu Xia in the bedroom, sitting on the edge of the bed with crimson cheeks, stroking his chest, and muttered in a low voice: "Such a big person, he doesn't wear clothes after taking a shower." ”
It wasn't until he heard the sound of Gao Jingen closing the bedroom door that Liu Xia got up and walked outside the bedroom.
"There's still time, you blow dry your hair before you go out, don't catch a cold again." Liu Xia shouted at Gao Jingen's bedroom.
Liu Xia's clear voice reached Gao Jingen's ears, and he was holding the button of his shirt and paused slightly. Then he looked at the closed door of the bedroom, smiled and replied loudly, "I know." ”
Liu Xia sat cross-legged on the sofa, holding a thermos cup in both hands, sucking on himself, still steaming hot water.
Gao Jingen changed into a clean casual suit, and walked to Liu Xia with his slippers: "I'm fine, where is Mr. Li?" ”
"I just sent a WeChat message and said that it will be there soon, let's go downstairs."
Liu Xia screwed on the lid of the thermos cup and got up.
"Is Mr. Li's house far away from us? How did it take that long? ”
Gao Jingen followed behind Liu Xia, took off his slippers, and prepared to change into shoes for going out.
"It was fine before, but now that I've moved here, it's a bit far. Her home is closer to the school where she works, and before, I used to go to the morning shift and get together after work. ”
Liu Xia put on his backpack, opened the door and walked out, followed by Gao Jingen.
"Didn't you say she had a boyfriend?" Gao Jingen carried his backpack, took the door with him, pulled the doorknob again, and confirmed that it was really locked, and then turned around and followed Liu Xia.
"She has a boyfriend, and it doesn't delay the emotional development of our two best friends, besides, her boyfriend is like nothing." Liu Xia pursed his lips and said with disdain in his tone.
"How?" Gao Jingen poked the tip of his nose with his thumb.
"I have known Li Xue for more than five years, and I have seen her boyfriend only a handful of times, at that time, I heard Li Xue say that they would get married after graduation, and I was quite envious of them, but now it seems that Li Xue has been going to school for a while from the graduate school entrance examination to the confirmation of staying in school, but their affairs have not been decided, from high school to now, almost ten years, I think, when you and a man have agreed on a time to get married, and when the time comes, but there is no preparation for marriage, you should give up, uh...... Actually, I don't know much about her boyfriend, I know all his good and bad from Li Xue's mouth, but you also know that there are some things that the authorities are obsessed with, with Li Xue's consistent temperament, but in the eyes of his lover, he ......"
Liu Xia smiled, shook his head, and didn't continue.
The two walked side by side in a quiet community, although the morning sun was soft, but it was also a little dazzling, the breeze stroked the broken hair of Liu Xia's sideburns, Gao Jingen turned his head to look at Liu Xia, everything was so natural.
"Regarding Li Xue's boyfriend, why don't you remind her? After all, she's your best friend, you can't just look at her and drag yourself to worthless. Gao Jingen asked with some confusion.
"I reminded her, but you said, the parties are obsessed, how can I, an outsider, interfere? What's more, if you say it sounds good, it is a reminder, but if you say it is not good, it will beat the mandarin duck and destroy people's feelings. Liu Xia sighed.
"It's a pity, such a good girl......" Gao Jingen also sighed and said: "Xia, you say, with Li Xue's temperament, if she knew that her boyfriend was unfaithful to her, what would happen to her?" ”
"Huh? What do I think, you have something to say? Liu Xia frowned and looked at Gao Jingen, his eyes full of doubt.
"Is her boyfriend's name Luo Bei?" Gao Jingen didn't intend to hide it from Liu Xia, and said bluntly.
"yes, how do you know? I heard that his family runs a company, and it seems that he is still the leader in the city's real estate industry, but I don't know the specifics, and everything I know is what Li Xue told me. Liu Xia nodded, thinking about replying to Gao Jingen.
"I went to Lin Hai last night and saw a picture of Luo Bei, you know, I was a soldier and I was sensitive to a lot of things, huh...... The first time we both went to the mall, do you remember? Gao Jingen wanted to speak and stopped.
Liu Xia looked at Gao Jingen, recalled, and said slowly: "That day, I saw Luo Bei carrying a big bag and a small bag, walking with a strange woman shoulder to shoulder......
"Hmm...... At that time, we passed by the makeup counter, and the two of us passed by Luo Bei......"
Gao Jingen also recalled.
“…… What does this prove? The world is so big, and there are many people who look alike, even if you read it wrong, it is possible......" In fact, Liu Xia already had the answer in his heart, but he was still a little uncertain at the time, and he felt that he was wrong.
"If one person is wrong, will we both be wrong?" Gao Jingen's firm tone made Liu Xia's heart a little uncomfortable, after all, Li Xue is her best friend, and Li Xue has been with her all these years, so that she can feel the beauty of the world when she is lonely.
Gao Jingen looked at Liu Xia, who was frowning, and was silent at the right time.
If Li Xue is such a girl who treats feelings single-mindedly and seriously, she will be hurt.
Liu Xia really couldn't imagine how Li Xue would face everything that was false.
The little sparrow, not afraid of the coolness of autumn, chirped, flew over the heads of the two of them, and stopped on the branches of the roadside street trees.
A taxi, coming from a short distance, is getting closer and closer to the two of them.
"Anyway, there was no face-to-face confronting at that time, so now, it's all speculation between you and me, don't mention anything in front of Li Xue later." Liu Xia didn't want to hurt Li Xue in the slightest, but it seemed that he was in a contradiction again.
Gao Jingen nodded and did not speak.
The taxi stopped in front of Liu Xia and Gao Jingen. Li Xue opened the car door and got out of the car.
Li Xue in front of her, dressed in a light blue windbreaker, wearing a white dress, stepping on a pair of heels and high heels, her temperament is as bright and moving as usual, her every action is gentle and elegant, quiet and joyful.
Compared with Liu Xia, who is wearing casual clothes and sneakers, the contrast is really great.
"Wow~ I haven't seen you for a few days, our teacher Li is beautiful again."
Liu Xia did not hide his lively personality at all, and praised Li Xue generously, and there was no lack of jokes.
Li Xue smiled softly, she knew Liu Xia's character too well. Seeing Gao Jingen beside Liu Xia, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "What? Mr. Gao is also there? ”
"Uh...... I ......"
Gao Jingen didn't know how to speak for a while.
"I promised Jing En a long time ago that I would take him to get acquainted with the city, so the two of us originally agreed to walk around today, but I didn't expect you to let me accompany you to the hospital, I can't, and leave him alone at home." Liu Xia explained.
"Uh...... If Mr. Gao doesn't mind, let Liu Xia take you to familiarize yourself with the hospitals in this city first. After listening to Liu Xia's explanation, Li Xue smiled softly, and turned around and got into the taxi after speaking.
Liu Xia naturally followed Li Xue into the car, and Gao Jingen also opened the co-pilot's door and sat in the car. The taxi drove slowly into the middle of the road and headed towards the hospital.
The sparrows on the branches, gathering their friends, chirped in flocks and flew across the road in sunny weather.
