Chapter 30: The Ring
Perhaps for people who have been hurt in love, they both desire love and fear love. Now I am in this state, I greedily enjoy the days of Xiao Dong's existence, playing with my play, when I am bored, I will think of Xiao Dong, I will ask Xiao Dong to eat together, press the road together, or when I have desires, I will miss Xiao Dong more truly, and these indulgences, I avoid but don't want to take any responsibility, thinking of these, I feel very shameless. And what about Xiao Dong? Is her love as vicissitudes as mine, or is she simply doting on me? I couldn't see her inner world clearly, but then I knew that she really loved me, very deeply.
There are many ways for people to interpret love, or express love, I may have exhausted my talents, and I have never had some fresh things to bring Xiao Dong any stimulation, and in this so-called play, what I am most afraid of is who takes it seriously, I don't think I want to take it seriously, but another slap came over, and I was very embarrassed.
Xiao Dong asked me to go shopping in Donggou, and I readily agreed.
She took my arm and walked through the crowd, no one cared, and we both laughed easily until she dragged me to the counter selling jewelry.
"Xiaofu, I want you to give me a gift." Xiao Dong stood next to the counter and took my hand and said with a smile.
"Well, what do you want?" My heart began to drum, a little uneasy, because I didn't know what gift she wanted, if it was perfume, lipstick and other cosmetics, it would probably be easy to deal with, but standing in front of the counter of gold and silver jewelry, if she chose a necklace, earrings and the like, I was afraid that my meager financial resources would not be able to bear it, and it was difficult to refuse her, so I muttered in my heart for a while, and what I said may be a little hesitant.
Xiao Dong seems to see my reluctance, or see my embarrassment, because I, a college student, is not a rich second generation, and she knows my economic strength to some extent. She pulled me to a booth that rotated to display samples, pointed to the rings inside and said, "I want you to give me a pair of rings, that's all." ”
"Huh? Why buy the right ring? I asked her hesitantly.
"Because then we will bind each other, and you will have to marry me in the future." Xiao Dong said very seriously, and his expectant eyes looked at me quietly.
This made me think of escaping, it seems to make me more responsible, and what I am most afraid of is responsibility, how can a cynical lord take the initiative to put on the shackles? And I have never given a ring to others, including to Yang, although I have said a lot of vows to Yang, done a lot of hormonal brain-burning actions, and given some gifts, but I have never given a ring. Because I think the ring is a more sacred gift, it should be given to the most sincere person who wants to be trapped, otherwise why do you have to wear rings for each other at the wedding? It is a sacred object that represents the meaning of the sacred and should be used in the sacred moment. So many thoughts quickly turned in my head, and I was thinking about what language to use to refuse Xiao Dong's request.
"Can we change something else, such as bracelets, earrings, etc., rings, how inconvenient it is to bring them, go back to class or something, and it doesn't feel good for others to see it." I was struggling to excuse myself, and I really couldn't find any suitable reason.
"What's so bad, others won't ask you about this, not to mention that this color bright gold ring is the most popular now, if you wear it, it means that you are a master of the people, and others will not beat your idea." Xiao Dong said, pointed to the ring in the display case and said to me.
I looked at the bright gold ring she was referring to, and the price was not high, 438 yuan. I relaxed a little, the price is not high, and it is only the price of a meal, and I am really afraid of getting a few thousand, and I can't buy it. It's just that I still can't accept the matter of buying a ring, so I looked at the bracelet and earrings next to me, which are basically at this price, which is a series, so I said to Xiao Dong: "You see that this bracelet and earrings are also very good-looking, or you choose this, if you choose a ring, I always feel that it will be very inconvenient." "I'm still quibbling.
"No, I want this ring, if you don't buy it for me, I'll buy it myself, if you don't bring it, I'll bring it myself." Xiao Dong said very stubbornly, I didn't know what to say, and I didn't stop her, I don't think I can stop it. After arguing a few words, she bought a ring herself and put it on herself.
I seemed to be a passerby. The reason why I will run away and not insist may be that I am really afraid of being trapped, and the deeper reason may be that I am a little timid when I think of the unpredictable future. After Xiao Dong put on the ring, he stretched out his hand in front of me, shook it, and asked me if I looked good, I looked at her with a bitter smile on her face, and I didn't feel good in my heart, I just said something good-looking.
Unknown tomorrow, no one knows what it will be like, so let's live today with heart. If I had figured this out, I think I would have happily bought a pair of rings with her, and then happily brought them, so that everyone's heart would be good and not sad.
Otherwise, fate is a thing that you can't fathom, you can't escape if it's yours, and you can't force it if it's not yours. After buying the ring, just in time for the promotional activities in the mall, you can draw a lottery with your shopping vouchers, Xiao Dong said that she didn't want to go, so she asked me to go to the member center to participate in the lottery, and she was waiting for me on the side. So I went to draw it.,In the big box with lottery tickets.,Stirred for a long time.,Only to draw one.,Anyway, it's a matter of trying your luck.,Generally, how low the winning rate is in this kind of activity.,Everyone knows in their hearts.,It's generally a commemorative prize.,Get a tissue or something.,So I didn't care.。 When I took out the lottery ticket and scratched it off, I accidentally drew a special prize, which was actually a grand prize, buy one get one free, that is to say, no matter what you bought, you are giving you something, which is equivalent to half price. At that time, I was dumbfounded, this award is equivalent to if you buy 10,000 things, I will give you another 10,000 things, there is no upper limit, with your single shopping receipt, the original price will be given. I excitedly showed it to Xiao Dong, she was also very excited, I didn't expect my luck to be so good, and I was in a state of regret or regret, I knew that I had such good luck, how could I buy something expensive. Xiao Dong, she excitedly took the lottery ticket and shopping ticket, trotted all the way to the counter to buy the ring, and said to the waiter, we won a special prize, hurry up and get a large ring, because the price of the size is the same, so the waiter took out a large plate ring.
Xiao Dong excitedly pulled me over, took out the ring he gave me, and put it on my hand, his mouth was happy: "Xiaofu, look, this is your own drawing, if you can't escape, you can't escape, hahaha." ”
She was very arrogant, I was very helpless, and just like that, I also put a yellow ring on my hand.
After Xiao Dong was happy for a long time, she used her hand with the ring to take my hand with the ring and carefully looked at it for a while, and I was a little embarrassed. We came out of Dongbo, I found a restaurant, invited Xiao Dong to dinner, and she didn't stop giggling from the time she ate until she went back to school.
In fact, there is one topic that I have always avoided talking about when I was with Xiao Dong, and that is her marriage contract. My choice of indulgence, choice of unruliness, choice of playthings and other depraved behaviors is due to the inner distrust of love and indescribable loneliness. Now she actually moved the idea of putting a ring around each other, which scared me. It always felt like she was planning something.
