Chapter Forty-Seven: It's Not Love That Doesn't Call
Jiang Xiaomian opened the door, the faint light of the corridor shone obliquely, and it took a few rays of light into the dark room to barely find the switch of the light. She turned the light on and drove away the darkness of the room.
The room was shabby, a mahogany-colored bedside table with cracked corners, obviously old, a white bed that looked yellowed by the light, and a television with a layer of dust visible to the naked eye, as if it had never been seriously swept over. Jiang Xiaomian entered the bathroom, where daily disposable toiletries were placed, and the rough packaging looked a little inferior.
Jiang Xiaomian squeezed the toothpaste and turned on the faucet to wash, but no water came out, so she twisted it a few more times. A few seconds later, the sound of water suddenly bursting out startled her, and her hand trembled, and the toothpaste dripped onto the slightly blue and white porcelain. An abrupt sense of dread arose in her.
"Alas! Isn't it just the sound of water? It still scares me. Jiang Xiaomian exhaled and squeezed out the toothpaste again.
The water speed of the faucet fluctuated fast and slow, and Jiang Xiaomian didn't turn off the faucet, feeling that the sound of rushing water seemed to bring her a little peace of mind. The toothpaste foam dripped on the washbasin, swirling into an invisible black hole, and she had to think of something to divert her timidity.
"Damn, why did I lose my temper in front of Xiang Dongyang just now, I actually took the initiative to hug him!" Jiang Xiaomian suddenly recalled this incident, pouted and frowned at the face in the mirror, stomped his foot again, and held a puddle of water to wake up his face.
Turn on the shower, and the mirror in front of the bathroom gradually becomes a layer of mist. Jiang Xiaomian hadn't yet enjoyed the relaxation of the bath, and the power suddenly turned off with a "smack".
Xiang Dongyang was also here, and the power was inexplicably cut off as soon as he took a bath, and then he heard Jiang Xiaomian's scream.
"Xiaomian, it's me, what's wrong with you?"
"It looks like there's a power outage." Jiang Xiaomian touched the darkness and tidied up the clothes on his body and opened the door.
Xiang Dongyang took advantage of the faint light in the corridor to come in and glance at it: "Strange? Why are there only two of us without power? ”
He stepped on wet slippers, and the floor was very naughty, trying to make Xiang Dongyang stumble.
"Oops, hey..."
Jiang Xiaomian hurriedly wanted to hold him, but he was tired and fell on him. Both of them let out an "ahhh
And so, that feeling grew. The bright eyes in the dimness communicated again.
They went to the front desk of the hotel, and Xiang Dongyang angrily asked as soon as he got down the stairs: "Damn, what's the matter with you, what should I do if the power suddenly goes off and breaks someone?" How much do you pay? What about the front desk person? ”
Jiang Xiaomian frowned, pulled the corner of his clothes and whispered, "Don't swear." ”
The front desk lady put down the instant noodles when she heard the voice, and when she walked over, she saw Xiang Dongyang wearing short sleeves, and the image of Mr. Bean was printed on his back, and he didn't know it. She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't, "Sir, Miss, I'm sorry!" I'm going to arrange a different room for you now. ”
Jiang Xiaomian saw that the lights were on everywhere, so he asked, "What's the problem?" Why is there no power next door to us? ”
The front desk lady listened to Jiang Xiaomian's words, and was really stupid for her carelessness, and when the electrician was increasing the power capacity in the morning, she asked the power supply of the two rooms to be temporarily connected to other electric switches, resulting in the electrical load being so weak that she could not bear the simultaneous use of two water heaters.
At this time, the front desk lady really can't wait to pick up a branch and take the blame for the guests, obviously the colleague has warned these two rooms not to live at the same time! It must have been a nap at the time, and the brain was broken! If they complain, tonight is a bad night.
"What's wrong? Why don't you answer? Now what? Xiang Dongyang became impatient.
"The battery load is not enough, sorry, I'm going to rearrange another room for you now!"
After a few seconds, it was really heavenly.
"I'm sorry, there are no adjoining rooms, and the nearest one is the staircase on the second floor and the staircase on the fourth floor, do you think you need to arrange it?" After the front desk lady finished speaking, she wanted to slap herself in the face.
"What's the matter with you......" When Xiang Dongyang was about to think about something more, Jiang Xiaomian noticed the clothes he was wearing backwards, covered his mouth and smiled and signaled to him.
Jiang Xiaomian made it simple and said, "Then you don't need to change it, just sleep for one night, and it won't hinder anything after taking a bath." ”
"Okay, then I'll tell the waiter to open the switch."
Xiang Dongyang glared at the front desk lady, Jiang Xiaomian pushed Xiang Dongyang, and he was willing to leave.
When the two returned to the room, the lights were already bright, and Xiang Dongyang was still a little annoyed, "This kind of accident is that their facilities are not perfect, why did you stop me just now?" ”
"You are used to the life of the eldest young master, and the environment of this small hotel is not in your eyes, and it is not forgiving to you if you are reasonable."
Xiang Dongyang was stunned by her words, and hurriedly explained: "No, I'm just afraid that you have been treated inappropriately."
"If you know me, you know I'm not that kind of person."
Jiang Xiaomian's words were very bland, but Xiang Dongyang looked at her as if he had heard the sound of heaven, "But you never really open your heart to me, do you?" ”
Jiang Xiaomian didn't answer his question directly, "I'm going to sleep, Master Xiang, please go back next door!"
A flash of lightning flashed, and the sound of "boom" huge thunder was just in time for Jiang Xiaomian's words to fall, so frightened that she hurriedly covered her ears.
The torrential rain was pouring down, and Jiang Xiaomian saw the raindrops floating on the curtains and went over to close the windows.
"Boom"
How do you know what kind of blindness God has, when Jiang Xiaomian pulled the window, he roared again, flashing a white light.
"Ahh She quickly retracted her hand, this time she was really taken aback.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xiang Dongyang held her in his arms and whispered.
In a word, just like the roaring thunder rolling across the earth just now, Jiang Xiaomian's beating heart quickly calmed down.
He asked softly, "Isn't it just thunder, are you so afraid?" ”
Jiang Xiaomian pushed Xiang Dongyang away, and the words were up: "I... It's just that... I'm going to sleep. As he spoke, he pushed him out, and "bang" closed the door directly.
Many years ago, thunder was not terrible to Jiang Xiaomian. Later, because the thunder in that dream was the sound of his father falling from a building.
It doesn't look like I'm going to be able to sleep much quietly tonight.
Jiang Xiaomian was lying in the quilt tossing and turning, and her palms were sweaty.
"Xiaomian, Dad is here..."
"Daddy, Daddy..."
Jiang Xiaomian called, in the thickening mist, vaguely blurred, and she would never be able to see where her father was going.
"Dad, where are you going?"
His father smiled at Jiang Xiaomian, "Xiaomian, Dad loves you very much, he can't protect you to grow up, you have to learn to be brave yourself." ”
"Dad, you wait for me."
Jiang Xiaomian stepped on the night to clear the dense fog and chased her father all the way. She thought the road was short, but it would lengthen endlessly as she ran.
"Daddy..."
The voice was mixed with bloodshot cries of despair.
The door of the room was opened, and I don't know when Xiang Dongyang hid Jiang Xiaomian's room key, so he had the opportunity to come to her side at this time. He wiped the sweat from her face, or tears.
"Xiao Mian... Xiaomian, what's wrong with you? ”
When Jiang Xiaomian woke up, where was his father, he only saw Xiang Dongyang's concerned face. Perhaps out of trust, Jiang Xiaomian didn't ask him how he appeared at the first time, but sobbed in front of him without hiding it at all.
"Can you tell me what's wrong?"
Jiang Xiaomian passively curled up in Xiang Dongyang's arms, his heartbeat touching her face, smoothing the throbbing of her whole body. Then the two hearts seemed to have made an appointment, and the frequency became the same. This feeling made her heart find ground.
Like the boat floating in a thunderstorm, the flat boat finally docked in a sheltered harbor.
"I miss my dad so much, but I can only see him in my dreams every time...", and after she finished speaking, tears rolled down like pearls with broken threads, and her face was wet again.
Xiang Dongyang hugged her tightly, and rested his chin lightly on her head. He couldn't empathize with her experience, he could only feel sorry for her now.
"Xiaomian, what kind of father is your father?"
The sound of the rain outside the window gradually became quieter, and it slipped against the glass, as if listening to the story inside.
"When I was a child, my family was very poor, but my father still kept the best things for me, and he never refused what I wanted. He would take me to school on a motorbike and make a cigarette case into an airplane for me to play with. After school, I always like to run after him on the construction site. At that time, my father always told me, 'It's dangerous here, you have to walk slowly.' And he took me by the hand, and walked steadily..."
After Jiang Xiaomian spoke for a short time, he was silent and wiped away his tears and did not say any more.
Xiang Dongyang remembered that Lin Shen mentioned that Jiang Xiaomian's father fell to his death on the construction site. Seeing that she didn't continue, how dare he ask.
"Okay, I know if you don't say it!" Xiang Dongyang comforted her emotions, "Your father doesn't want to see you like this, you have to be brave and smile when you think of him, instead of crying like this." ”
After he finished speaking, he held Jiang Xiaomian's face, grinned at her with his teeth bared, and said, "Oh, like me, I have to laugh like this every day." ”
The watch's hands kept ticking and moving, pushing the clock to five in the morning.
Xiang Dongyang helped Jiang Xiaomian to lie down and moved the quilt, "You sleep well, I'll take you somewhere tomorrow." ”
Jiang Xiaomian nodded and closed her sleepy eyes.
The next day, they came to the gate of Blue and White Park. Because it's Saturday, the atmosphere here is like a market.
A little girl with a horn came up to them holding a candy rack, "Brother, sister, do you want to buy marshmallows?" ”
"Okay, I want one!" Xiang Dongyangxiao paid the money and handed the marshmallow to Jiang Xiaomian, "Here, the marshmallow you like to eat." ”
"How do you know I like this?"
Xiang Dongyang helped her uncover the plastic packaging wrapped on it, "Don't all little girls like to eat this!"
"The last time I ate this was during the time when I couldn't see with my eyes, it was Xian..." When talking about Xian Xinchen, Jiang Xiaomian retracted his words and changed his name to a relaxed tone, "Brother Xinchen bought it for me." ”
Listening to her talk about the events of that day, Xiang Dongyang only smiled and was silent beside her.
All she knew was that the current marshmallow was bought to her by him.
But she didn't know that in fact, he also bought her the marshmallows in Baitou Lake.
"You wait for me here, I'll go buy two tickets."
After Xiang Dongyang finished speaking, he ran to the ticket office of the sightseeing cable car opposite, he shook his vigorous and upright back, and when he came back, he held four tickets in his hand.
"Let's go, let's take the cable car up!" Xiang Dongyang pulled Jiang Xiaomian to the riding place.
Jiang Xiaomian asked, "The two of us, why are there four tickets?" ”
He smiled and said, "Because I've chartered a car!" ”
After entering the carriage, the cable car slowly slid off the track and into the air, and in front of you was the beautiful mountains and rivers of most of the south. Surrounded by transparent glass windows, Jiang Xiaomian felt like she was sitting in the sky, and she didn't feel dizzy, but her feet were a little weak. Although the steady carriage would not fall, she still felt a little afraid of heights, and she couldn't help but close her eyes, and then quietly opened her eyes to look.
Xiang Dongyang smiled and asked, "Is this the first time you have taken the cable car?" ”
"Hmm."
Jiang Xiaomian had taken two planes before, and that was when he was back and forth to Beijing. Both times it was a position to avoid the window.
But when she thinks about it, her father fell from a tall building in front of her eyes, and she can't escape the nightmare. It's the same thing that people who drown in rivers are afraid of water.
Xiang Dongyang guided her to look at the distant scenery, "Open your eyes, accept all this, and relax your fears!" ”
Jiang Xiaomian let go of his eyes and moved with the movement of the cable car. After crossing the mountain, seeing the sea, parallel to the hundred rivers under her feet, she experienced the feeling that she had already crossed the mountains without moving her feet.
After getting off the cable car, Xiang Dongyang took her to the top of the mountain.
Jiang Xiaomian looked puzzled, "What are you bringing me here for?" ”
Xiang Dongyang gestured in the direction of bungee jumping and stretched out his hand to her, "Do you believe me?" ”
"I..."
Before Jiang Xiaomian could say anything, Xiang Dongyang pulled her and walked over.
Jiang Xiaomian wanted to break free of his hand, but the more she was like this, the more Xiang Dongyang grabbed her.
"Have you forgotten what we said last night?"
Xiang Dongyang's question made her gradually stop the movements in her hands.
"Think back to the time when you escaped from the battle here, how you fell, how you got up."
The perseverance in Xiang Dongyang's eyes made Jiang Xiaomian no longer have a reason to refuse.
Xiang Dongyang saw that she no longer resisted, and pulled her away. According to Xiang Dongyang's request, the staff tied a safety rope for them to double bungee jumping.
Standing in front of Lin Yuan, Jiang Xiaomian kept his eyes closed, afraid to look down.
Xiang Dongyang took out a leather band to help her tie her long hair in a shawl, "With me with you, even if you fall into the abyss today, at least you are not alone!" ”
Jiang Xiaomian felt that the wind blowing around him was shocked by his words and stayed.
"Close your eyes and jump down with me, I'm always there for you."
"Okay."
Jiang Xiaomian still closed her eyes, took Xiang Dongyang's hand tightly, and began to wait.
"Then I'm counting down."
She nodded.
"Five, four, three..."
When it came to three, Xiang Dongyang grabbed her and jumped down.
The two free-falling bodies fell in the wind, and Jiang Xiaomian's cry sounded among the rocks of the mountain peak, rising above the clouds of the green mountain peak. She was too frightened to open her eyes, and pressed close to Xiang Dongyang, and the two of them could smell each other's breath. A few seconds later, Jiang Xiaomian's lips became hot from something touching, and then his teeth were pried open by a wave of warmth. She responded jerkyly.
The weight of the two of them was still bouncing to the rhythm of the rope, and when she opened her eyes, the meandering peaks that could be scanned in the afterglow were not as charming as the face in front of her. Jiang Xiaomian seemed to have touched the electricity of love, and her body was spread into soft mud. Xiang Dongyang noticed that she didn't resist, from dragonfly to water, the more greedy she kissed.
