Chapter 11: Do You Want to Warn That Kid?
I gently wiped the tears on Xia Chu's face with my hands, and said to her in a resolute tone: "I promise you! Won't leave you! β
Xia Chu and I held hands and snuggled out of the movie theater like any other couple.
"Ruonan." The beginning of the summer whispered my name.
"Huh?" I say.
"Do you think I'm casual?" Xia Chu suddenly stopped, looked into my eyes and said.
"No!" I say with absolute certainty. Of course I don't think so, in my previous life, I could say that I grew up silently watching her, and I still don't know what she was like?
Xia Chu looked at my eyes that were not mixed with a trace of hypocrisy, and finally put his mind at ease and said to me in a soft voice: "You know what, Ruonan. Today was the first time I had a boy take me home, the first time I had lied to my family for a boy, the first time I had run out to watch a movie with a boy, the first time I had held hands with a boy, the first time I had a boy touch my body, the first time I cared so much about someone who wasn't my family, the first time β the first time I had never thought about it, I would take the initiative to say I liked you to a boy I'd only known for a week. You've taken too much of my first time, Wakanan. I don't know why, but I just like you. β
Although, I already knew this in my heart when Xia Chu said this, but when I said it from her mouth again, I still couldn't help it, and I was inexplicably moved in my heart.
Xia Weiguo heard that his father's secretary had something to do today and couldn't come to pick up his daughter, so he asked his driver Lao Ye to pick up Xia Chu. But I don't know what's going on, a boy who has a close relationship with his daughter has appeared.
This old leaf, why don't you call me yet. Xia Weiguo scolded in his heart. I picked up the phone on my desk and was about to dial when my phone rang.
"Hey, Mr. Xia, I'm Lao Ye!"
"Old Ye! How's it going over there? I was about to call you. β
"Mr. Xia, I saw Miss and that boy walking out of the movie theater hand in hand!"
"Are you sure?" Xia Weiguo asked with a deep groan.
"Well, I'm driving with them right now."
"Where are they going now?" Xia Weiguo asked.
"It seems to be heading in the direction of your father's house, do you want to find someone to warn that kid?" Lao Ye asked.
"Don't use this for now, let's see how it goes. But you should hurry up and ask me about the boy's identity and family background these days. Xia Weiguo commanded.
"Okay! But that kid doesn't look like he's rich, he sends Miss home and takes a big bus, and Miss paid for watching a movie just now! Lao Ye muttered.
Neither Xia Chu nor I mentioned the car, so we kept walking in the direction of Xia Chu's grandfather's house.
When I was about to reach a villa, Xia Chu stopped and said to me, "I'll go back, and those people know me if I go any further." β
I nodded, but didn't let go.
"Ruonan, I really want to go back, otherwise grandpa will definitely scold me!" Xia Chu looked at me with resentful eyes and said.
I still haven't let go.
"Heyβ" Xia Chu sighed lightly, gritted his teeth, broke free of my hand and ran away quickly.
I didn't run halfway through, but Xia Chu stopped, turned around, and said to me with tears on his face: "Ruonan, I miss you again, can you hug me again?" With that, he ran over and threw himself into my arms.
It took a long time for us to be separated. Xia Chu glanced at his watch, screamed "oops", and immediately ran in the direction of the villa without looking back.
I watched the back of the beginning of summer, and I knew that on this day, history had really changed, and the trajectory of my life had shifted.
What kind of house is this? It's so advanced, there is still a guard at the door?! Subconsciously, I felt that something was faintly wrong, but I didn't dare to come forward to check for fear of being discovered.
I wandered around the neighborhood for a long time, and finally found a car to get home.
When I got home, my parents were very anxious and asked me why I was so late. My dad, in particular, put on a straight face when he saw me coming back and asked me, "Where did you go after class?" Are you going to the arcade again? β
When I was in junior high school, I used to sneak to the arcade after school to play, and as a result, my dad didn't trust me. Alas! I used to be such a failure.
Of course, I had already made up the reason for coming back late. Just like at the beginning of the summer, when I told my computer teacher that I was very talented and ready to let me represent the Children's Palace in the national competition, my mother was immediately overjoyed, heated the dishes, and took out a bottle of soda from the refrigerator, saying that it was to celebrate.
