You're Next to Me (4) (Add more to the stars and the diamonds)
"You live with your aunt" Listening to what he said, the aunt seemed to have a high status in the family.
"I" Xiao Zhou paused, "yes, yes. ”
He didn't say anything about his family, got up and went outside the private room, asked the waiter for paper and pen, and came back and handed it to me. "Before the food is served, help me write the blessing first, so that you don't have to worry about it."
"How to write," I asked.
Xiao Se thought for a while and said: "Her name is Lin Enmo, Shuangmulin, the grace of kindness, the ink of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and she is a girl who loves beauty very much." It's her 21st birthday in a few days, and you can just write a random sentence wishing her eternal youth and beauty. ”
Lin Enmo, surnamed Lin, I suddenly realized. "It's the sister Lin that Mu Mian said, your girlfriend" I think only a girlfriend will make him so attentive, "Have you collected the blessings of 100 people?"
"It's that Sister Lin, yes, but it's not my girlfriend." Xiao Se returned to his seat, and his expression fell, "There are still 30 left, I'm worried." ”
"I see, you're pursuing her, but haven't passed her yet." I still believe my guesses.
Xiao Se "uh", as if someone had stuffed an egg in his throat. "Can't you just not think about it?"
"So what am I going to think?" I asked rhetorically.
Xiao Se stared at me tightly, his expression embarrassed and confused. "In short, not what you think. I just treated her like a sister. ”
I didn't want to continue to explore, picked up the pen and thought about it for a while, and then wrote down the words "I wish Lin Enmo a happy birthday, youth and beauty forever", I wrote very seriously, so that Miss Hanfu came in to serve the food without paying attention, when I finished writing, my right hand unconsciously moved the position, just pressed on the bowl of spinach puree on the right hand, the bowl overturned, my arm was covered with hot spinach puree, and I jumped up in pain.
Xiao Se rushed over and pulled me into the bathroom next to me, unscrewing the switch of the wooden sink and placing my arm under it, the water flowing from the bamboo faucet to my reddened skin. I stood stiff in embarrassment, this is not the first time such a scene, last time in Yejia Village, laundry detergent water splashed into my eyes, it was also a similar scene, when Xiao Se was only wearing a pair of underwear, and it also caused Yin Jingshu to seriously misunderstand. I felt a rush of blood rushing to my brain, and my whole face was hot.
Xiao Se took care of himself to rinse my arms, and after washing, he took a napkin and wiped it. "Does it still hurt?" he said, his voice low and soft.
I looked up at him, and there was no smile on his face, on the contrary, his eyes were warm and sincere, not scherzo, no frivolity, no artificiality, I have never seen him look like this, which can almost melt the ice into water. The napkin in his hand brushed against the skin of my arm, and the force was so light that he was afraid of hurting me. His lips trembled slightly, and he spat out two words softly: "Tong Xin." ”
His arms wrapped around my shoulders, and heavy breathing blew on my face, hot, with a smell of oppression. "Do you still hate me as much as you used to," he whispered, his arm growing stronger, and my body pressed against his.
For a few seconds I was in a trance, my heart fluttering, but I soon regained consciousness, and the gloomy face was in front of my eyes, a young and moving face, but I still had a feeling of resistance to it, and my instinctive fear of being intimate with him. Whether I still hate him or not, I can't say, I just know that I have to run away at this time, escape from the dizziness he gave me. I pushed him away and said in a stiff, not like my own, "What are you doing, taking advantage of me?" ”
Xiao Se was stunned, and the muscles on his face hardened. "You're such a cold-blooded animal"
"Don't be angry," I stopped him, "I don't want to quarrel with you." ”
He swallowed his half-sentence and bent over me, his eyes still tingle with anger, but his tone had regained his composure. "I can't do anything about you now, but one day, I will subdue you."
I didn't want to argue with him, so I turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
The table top has been cleaned up by the service staff, and a few more bowls of spinach puree have been placed. I sat down in my seat, and Xiao Se sat down across from me, and I could feel his gaze on my face, deliberately ignoring it, burying his head in the bowl of spinach puree. The taste was good, soft and smooth, but some kind of panic caused my right hand holding the spoon to tremble, and from time to time it collided with the edge of the bowl, making a slight crunch that ruined my appetite.
In the middle of the night, I heard Xiao Se laugh out loud, followed by the sound of chairs moving.
I looked up and saw that Xiao Se had moved his seat from across from me to the right side. "That way you won't be so nervous and you can eat with peace of mind."
"I'm nervous." I deny it with confidence.
Xiao Se was silent, I peeked at him, he stopped staring at me, and moved his chopsticks to eat.
I began to feel the awkward atmosphere brewing between us. After eating silently for a while, I took the initiative to break the deadlock. "For the remaining 30 people, I asked the people from our dance troupe to help write them."
Xiao Se glared at me in disbelief. "I heard you right, you mean to help me find someone to write a blessing."
"Yes, you heard me wrong." I said it on purpose. But seeing the frustration that suddenly rose in his eyes, I felt a little unbearable, so I smiled at him, "I'm happy to help with this, we have a lot of people in the dance troupe, and it's easy to get 30 together." ”
"Thank you very much." Xiao Se stared at me with understanding, "As a thank you, that diet suit will be given to you, and you don't have to return it." ”
I hurriedly refused: "That's not good, these are two different things." I love the beauty of adults, and I would be happy if I could help you and Sister Lin achieve good things. ”
Xiao Se looked at me quietly, with a hazy melancholy in his eyes.
Miss Hanfu is here to serve the food again, it is "Jinshu in the Clouds". This dish is a perfect interpretation of the concept of vegetarian hanging, and the plate is very unique, with bamboo curtains rolled into books, and bamboo shoots made into the shape of a brush placed next to the sauce.
"As soon as I saw this dish, I felt the urge to open the book and make a big stroke." Xiao Se's face came alive again.
"What do you want to write," I asked.
Xiao Se picked up the bamboo shoots in the shape of a brush and made a gesture of holding a brush. "Writing back has always been bleak, returning, there is no wind and rain and no sunshine, my dad loves this sentence the most."
"Your dad loves this because it has your name in it?" I quipped. I know that it is Su Shi's famous sentence, to the effect that he glanced back at the stormy place that came over, and walked back, neither caring about the wind and rain, nor the sunny weather.
Xiao Se's eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a barely audible sigh on his lips. "My name is found in many ancient poems, and they are basically used to depict a desolate and miserable artistic conception. When I was born, it was a bleak autumn, and my dad was in a desolate mood, so he gave me this name. But after experiencing the wind and rain, his mentality has changed a lot, and he regards no wind and rain and no sunshine as his pursuit of life. ”
As he spoke, he carefully unwrapped the shells of the bamboo shoots and put the flesh into my bowl.
The bamboo shoots are fresh and crispy, and I chew them slowly, savoring the wonderful taste, and also recalling the phrase "Looking back at the bleak place, returning, there is no wind and rain and no sunshine". Of course, at the age of 20, I could not deeply appreciate the artistic conception and profound meaning of the poem. It's just that Xiao Pengcheng's forehead and mouth have a lot of lines in his mind, like a skilled sculptor's firm and meticulous face with a carving knife, as well as his similar smile to Xiao Se.
After dinner, Uncle Xiang picked us up and drove me back to the dance troupe. On the way, Xiao Se said: "Lend me your mobile phone." ”
I hesitated to give him my phone.
"You must not know my mobile phone number." His finger quickly pressed the key, "I've saved it for you to make it easier to contact." ”
He seems to have a good idea. I've actually saved his number, and I'm deliberately silent.
Xiao Se soon found out. "It turns out that you have saved my number, I was so surprised."
I looked up and saw a touch of warmth and kindness on the corners of his smiling mouth. The light from the car window shone in, and the warm light smeared on his face. "I" I had a hazy trance, and the words disappeared automatically before they reached my mouth.
"What are you" Xiao Se looked at me with a smile, the smile spread from the corners of his mouth to the tip of his eyebrows, his smile was charming, not only the smile, but his facial features were very charming, even if I hated him so much before, I couldn't deny this fact. When he was in high school, he was so beautiful that he smelled a little fat powder. Goodbye after many years, the fat powder smell is gone, and there is a little more masculine. And now, my dislike for him has greatly lessened, and I feel more and more that he has a strong attraction.
Startled by my own thoughts, I turned my face evasively and pretended to pay attention to the view outside the window.
Xiao Se didn't ask any more questions, just put his phone next to me. After that, it was quiet all the way, and I sat still, staring at the lights flickering outside the window.
When I arrived at my destination, my mind was still running far away. "Tong Xin, it's here." The screams brought me back to my senses.
I was a little embarrassed and uneasy about my distraction, and I almost panicked and picked up my phone and was about to pull the car door and get out of the car.
A hand pressed against mine, and I almost screamed in shock. I wanted to shake my hand, but he held it tighter. I looked back with annoyance, smiled and squinted at me, and suddenly approached me. I was staring at me, I was so nervous that I couldn't breathe steadily, and there was a driver in the car, and he wouldn't do anything bad in front of me.
