Chapter 42: Love What You Love (3)

Qiao Shen looked over there through Xia Cicada, with a smile on the corner of his lips.

"You don't rob?"

Tide smiled lightly and shook his head, his tone helpless. "I'll forget it, I've never believed that this would bring me any good luck."

There was a slight ripple in Qiao Shen's eyes. "If you don't try something, how do you know if it works."

After he finished speaking, he twisted his head back again, and his eyes fell intently on the flower ball in the bride's hand in front of him.

Tide was dumbfounded, pursed his lips, and withdrew his eyes from Qiao Shen.

"The flower ball is coming!"

She suddenly heard Mu Xue's voice in front of her, and the crowd stirred again.

Xia Chan seemed to be ready to snatch, her hands were spread, her body leaned forward slightly, and her eyes flashed with excitement.

Then Mu Xue threw the flower ball to this side. With the cheers of the crowd one after another, the tide saw the white balls flying in a parabolic form with a perfect arc. Although she didn't want to participate in this game, her feet still unconsciously wanted to stand up from the ground to catch the ball, after all, Xia Cicada was next to her, so it was good to help her pick it up.

Before she could stand up, she heard the crowding and noise in front of her and around her, mixed with the squeak of people clashing against chairs as they moved, and the flower balls flew steadily towards the half. Xia Cicada shouted, jumped forward and reached out, it happened that a lady in front of her accidentally kicked the chair away in a panic, just in front of Xia Chan, her fingers were almost two centimeters away from the flower ball, and before she touched it, she was caught by the lady in front of her as soon as she turned around and caught it steadily.

Before the tide could react, she heard a burst of exclamation from the crowd, and then she saw Xia Chan's body leaning forward and falling forward by inertia, and then there was a crisp collision sound, and in just a moment, Xia Chan's forehead hit the metal corner of the back of the half-open chair impartially.

"Xia Cicada!"

Tide and Qiao Shen shouted her name almost at the same time. She hurriedly stood up to help Xia Cicada who had slipped to the ground, but Qiao Shen had already stepped forward and flipped her body over.

There was a rush in the crowd. The tide clearly saw that Xia Cicada had her eyes closed tightly and her face was pale. She stepped forward to hold her head, gently brushed her bangs away, and saw that a large patch of blood had oozed from the right corner of her forehead.

"Mom, hurry up and get to the hospital!" "It's all bleeding!"

People all around hurriedly came over to check the situation, shouting nonsense.

"Summer Cicada! ...... "The tip of the tide nose is sour.

"I hurt, Tidal."

Xia Cicada spit out a slurred sentence in a daze, and the tide suddenly felt that his eyes were hot.

"Get her to the hospital!" She raised her eyes to look at Qiao Shen and shouted loudly.

Without saying a word, Qiao Shen picked up Xia Chan from the ground, turned around and squeezed away from the crowd and trotted. Tide took the two of them from their chairs and hurriedly followed.

In the taxi from the church to the hospital, both men were speechless. Tide carefully let Xia Cicada lean against her body in the back row, while wiping the blood that was constantly oozing from her forehead with a tissue. The blood stained the tissues bright red, and the tide looked at the heartache.

Qiao Shen kept looking in the rearview mirror, his brows furrowed.

"Master, can you drive a little faster? My friend is in a hurry. ”

The driver sighed, as if helpless. "I can't help it, it's already very fast, no matter how urgent it is, I still have to pay attention to safety."

Qiao Shen pursed his lips slightly and fell silent.

It took twenty minutes all the way. It was only after watching Xia Chan be put on the operating table and pushed into the operating room that the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiao Shen turned his head and saw the tide's face pale.

"It's fine, don't worry."

He comforted gently.

Tide sat down on the bench and listened to his newly calmed heartbeat throbbing in his chest.

Why do your loved ones always get hurt one after another.

Xia Cicada had more than a dozen stitches on her head, and when she woke up, she cried like a child.

"Mom, am I going to be stupid again, I'm not smart in the first place."

She hugged the arm of the tide and cried wolf, and Qiao next to her smiled with great joy.

"You think too much, the original stupidity is already the limit, no matter how stupid you are, you won't be stupid."

The tide comforted her in a different way.

Xia Cicada angrily spread her out and gave the tide a roll of the eyes.

"I wanted to grab a flower ball to get happy, but now it's okay, the joy didn't touch, and I broke my head."

Qiao Shen straightened up from the wall he was leaning against and walked up to her, smiling mysteriously.

"What? I kowtowed, you gloated so much? ”

Xia Chan raised her voice and scolded him.

Qiao Shen didn't speak, but stretched out his hands behind his back and handed the flower ball in his hand to her.

"Huh?"

Xia Chan raised her eyebrows in surprise, her eyes were full of disdain, and they were full of joy.

"This is given to you by Xu Mingzhong and Mu Xue, they said that they hope you will get better soon, and they are also waiting to eat the wedding wine of the two of us."

When the last sentence came out, Qiao Shen wanted to laugh himself, but he still held back politely.

The tide sneered beside him.

Xia Chan pursed her lips with a complicated expression.

“...... Although I don't want it, but after all, it's all because of this thing that I'm like this, don't want it to be sorry for the dozen or so stitches I sew. ”

She was full of words, her face was not red, and she took the flower ball in Qiao Shen's hand without a beat, but she put it on her chest like a treasure and looked at it carefully.

The tide saw a light in her eyes.

Maybe Xia Chan is still in love with Xu Mingzhong. Although he hurt her a thousand times, he was the first person she fell in love with with her heart. Things are not people, and now she can only place this fading love in this bouquet of flowers that she fights for with her life. At an age when you don't understand anything, it's also a good thing to love someone who can't love what he loves.

As soon as the city entered the end of the year, it was rainy and rainy. Tide was born and raised here, and she is used to this kind of climate, and she has no grudges against rainy days. Sometimes she sits alone in front of the window and writes something, watching the tiny droplets splash on the windowsill, and playing her favorite soft music in the headphones, she will unconsciously be fascinated by the smoke and rain ripples of the outside world. The dense curtain of rain enveloped the city, and she didn't have to struggle to see what she couldn't see.

"It's raining again? I'm annoyed, when will it be sunny? ”

Tide heard the person next to him mumble impatiently.

Her eyes fell on the clock in front of the classroom, and she saw that the hands were two minutes from four-ten.

On the podium, she was still talking about the modern history of France, but her mind had already flown to the clouds. Xia Chan took a week's leave, in fact, her wound was not to the point of taking such a long leave, but she didn't want to come to class and had to get by.

I woke up late this morning, and I didn't take an umbrella when I walked in a hurry. Usually when she forgets to bring an umbrella, Xia Cicada always forgets it. But she wasn't there today, and although the light rain outside wasn't heavy, it was enough to get wet all the way to where she lived.

When the bell rang for the end of class, the classroom was like an exploding pot. Tide wants to stay in the position for a while, wait for the rain to light up, and review today's content in time by the way.

Qiao Shen walked over from behind and stopped as he passed beside her.

"Don't have an umbrella?"

He looked at him and spoke softly.

Tide shook his head, a little weak-hearted.

"I brought it, I just want to stay in the class and review it for a while."

Qiao Shen's eyes roamed around her, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he stopped talking.

"Then I'll go, bye-bye."

He had no choice but to say hello and walked straight out of the classroom.

Tidal eyes fell back to the book, and his thoughts were mixed.

When I walked out of the outer courtyard, the rain did not stop, but it was much heavier than before.

Standing in the hall, Tidal looked up at the dense curtain of rain that poured down from the gray sky, and with a few gusts of transit wind, it slanted and fell on her glasses.

Let's go back like this, it's not very far anyway, if you don't leave now, I don't know if it will turn into a pouring rain.

Thinking so, she rushed into the rain and began to trot to save time, regardless of the splash that wet her pant legs.

The lenses have been obscured by the fine rain falling. She couldn't see the people and objects in front of her clearly, so she followed the direction of going back and ran on her own.

There was a familiar back with an umbrella in front of her, but she didn't bother to look at it, so she just brushed the man and ran forward.

As soon as he took two steps past the back, his left arm was suddenly grabbed by a pair of hands. The powerful force of withdrawal jerked her back, and the tide let out a low exclamation, staggering and not standing still, and slammed into a chested with the scent of mint.

Jiang Qi?

She still relied on the familiar smell to identify him. Sometimes when she squeezes the bus or the subway, or brushes the rushing pedestrians next to her, there are always different smells wafting into her senses and smells. But after smelling so many smells, what she can't forget the most is this mint smell that makes her heart flutter.

That's his own taste. Every time it made her inexplicably relieved.

"Don't bring an umbrella on a rainy day?"

A familiar voice came from the top of his head, and his tone was light.

The tide raised his eyes in a panic and crashed into those eyes that he hadn't seen for a long time.

She suddenly felt the tip of her nose sour. During these sleepless days, she thought about him every night and dreamed of him in every dream. As soon as she closed her eyes, he sat across the table and said that sentence expressionlessly, and the sentence that made her heart ache throughout her dreams.

“....... Forgot. ”

Tide spoke, and found that Jiang Qi's right hand was still grasping her arm.

She tried to break free, but the boys had always been much stronger than the girls, and she didn't.

The corners of Jiang Qi's lips raised, and he watched her struggle several times before letting go of the grip on it.

"Let's go. Where do you live? ”

He moved his umbrella to the tide, his eyes falling on the rain.

"Why are you here? Looking for Xiao Ya? ”

The tide answered the question. In fact, she didn't care about Jiang Qi's words just now, she was now full of Xiao Ya's face.

Jiang Qi turned his eyes sideways, as if he was smiling.

"Why can't I be here? I must have come here to find Xiao Ya? ”

One sentence chokes the tide. She pursed her mouth and fell silent.

She kept her distance from him with her peripheral vision, an umbrella was not big, but she would rather wet half of her shoulders in the rain than get too close to him, even if her heart always couldn't restrain herself from wanting to get close to him.
