Chapter 20: Aren't You Avoiding Me?
Their state of being so inseparable from each other made Xu Xinyi feel in a trance for a moment, as if he had returned to three years ago.
Recognize that the feelings for He Xiao are not family affection, but the love between men and women, that is, three years ago, she was just seventeen years old, and her love was beginning to bloom.
He Xiao is very good to her, so good that it is not accurate to describe it with the word "good".
As long as it is what she wants, he will find a way to give it to her, and as long as it is what she wants to do, he will support it unconditionally.
Living with him at the age of 12, he became her only relative and her only support, and at that time, he was only a half-year-old man in his early twenties, and he couldn't even take care of himself, let alone take care of her a child.
A boy in his twenties has a rebellious and frivolous energy in his bones, has no patience, and only has a rebellious blood, but she has hardened his rebellious and frivolous into tenderness.
He kept their lives in order, and he took good care of her.
She admits that at first she was dependent on him, but gradually, this dependence turned into a crazy possessiveness, and day after day, this madness began to sink into the blood little by little, and it was extremely paranoid.
She doesn't like He Xiao to talk to other girls, even if it's just out of politeness.
She didn't like He Xiao to smile at other girls, even if it was just out of politeness.
Three years ago, a military doctor who was only four years older than her launched a passionate pursuit of He Xiao.
The twenty-one-year-old military doctor was innocent, full of romanticism, very bold and straightforward, and never hid his feelings.
She had heard that men liked this kind of warm and sweet girl.
She didn't care, and subconsciously thought that He Xiao was not included in that "man".
In Xu Xinyi's impression, He Xiao is actually a person who doesn't like to laugh, even when he softly coaxes her, his expression is still very light, and he can't even see other emotions, his temper is a little irritable, and he doesn't know how to pity Xiangxiang and cherish jade at all, sometimes she makes mistakes, and he still teaches a ruthless lesson.
In her eyes, He Xiao is a person who has not opened his mind.
But one day, she saw He Xiao standing with the military doctor.
As long as he is idle, he always has a cigarette in his mouth, his back is very straight, even if he is lazy and leaning against the wall, but his back is still very straight, he always has a contradictory attraction, obviously in the prime of his youth, arrogant and arrogant, but there is a man's maturity and stability all over his body, it is this ruffian and hard energy, I don't know how many little girls I have lost.
The military doctor stood in front of him, not knowing what he was saying to him, and as he spoke, he danced with his hands and feet, and his smile was bright, which was particularly infectious.
He Xiao, who has never liked to laugh, actually gently hooked the corners of his lips, even if the smile was fleeting, even if there was a distance between them, but He Xiao's imperceptible smile still couldn't escape her eyes.
At that time, she deeply felt what a sense of crisis was.
A military doctor she had never put in her eyes actually made He Xiao smile.
She was so panicked that she had no master, and even felt that He Xiao was going to be snatched away in the next second.
That night, she sat in the living room and waited for He Xiao for a long, long time, and He Xiao didn't come back until the early morning.
Seeing her sitting in the living room in a daze, he immediately asked, "Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night and don't go to class tomorrow?" ”
Xu Xinyi waited all night, her emotions were already on the verge of collapse, waiting for her initial jealousy and anger to begin to grind into boundless fear and panic, and she was even full of suspicions, whether he was with that military doctor, whether he would not want her when he came back the next day.
"Where have you been, and with whom? Why are you only coming back now? She asked a series of questions with particular sensitivity.
He Xiao was a little inexplicable, "What else can I do besides night training?" ”
No matter how sluggish she was, she should have noticed that something was wrong with her, He Xiao walked over, leaned down slightly, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Because of training, he was sweating all over, and his body was very dirty, so he didn't dare to get too close to her, so he kept a distance of half a meter.
The nerves that had been tense all night were slightly relieved at the moment when He Xiao whispered softly, but the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were completely disintegrated, Xu Xinyi suddenly opened his arms and hugged his neck tightly, it was too sudden, and her strength was very strong, He Xiao reflexively fell into the sofa.
Then she clinged to him more inseparably, hugging him tighter and tighter.
"Why are you laughing at that medic?" Xu Xinyi sniffed, and his voice was slightly weak.
He Xiao was simply confused, his mind was blank, he didn't understand what was wrong with her suddenly, and he didn't understand what she was talking about.
"What's the mess?"
"Who am I laughing at?"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Xinyi suddenly let go of his neck, raised his head to look at him, his eyes were round, and he was indignant and dissatisfied: "I saw it, you were with that military doctor today, and you smiled at her." ”
As soon as she reminded her, He Xiao remembered it later.
The corners of his mouth twitched speechlessly, and then patiently explained: "She told me jokes, people tell me so hard, I can't help but give face, right?" ”
Although He Xiao's explanation made Xu Xinyi feel better, at least he didn't laugh because he liked the military doctor, but Xu Xinyi was still unhappy.
"I don't like that medic, and you can't like her!"
Xu Xinyi locked his deep eyes deeply, and when she looked at each other, her attitude became more and more domineering.
But in He Xiao's eyes, he was a little fart child with a small mood, and he also knew that Xu Xin's temperament was reluctant, and she had a way to toss him if she didn't follow her.
So he nodded vigorously and agreed very happily: "Okay, okay, listen to you, I don't like her." ”
"You're not allowed to talk to her."
"I don't talk to her, I see her take a detour, okay?"
Xu Xinyi nodded in satisfaction.
"Can you go to sleep?" He Xiao gently pulled Xu Xinyi off, lowered his head slightly to look at her, and preached in a respectful manner: "If Ming'er is late, your homeroom teacher should call me again, I am most annoyed to answer your homeroom teacher's phone, my ears are almost cocooned by her, can I answer your homeroom teacher's phone less?" Can you use that cranky energy to the right path? Well? ”
Xu Xinyi is actually very good at studying, but he always loves to be late, he studies well, and he always loves to sleep in class.
Just this kind of complaint call, every time he calls, He Xiao is one head and two big.
However, a week later, He Xiao once again received a complaint call from the head teacher, but what he didn't expect was the content of the head teacher's complaint, which was Xu Xinyi's early love.
That night, He Xiao took the love letter written by Xu Xinyi and questioned with a serious face.
And Xu Xinyi took this opportunity to confess, she wanted to be honest about her feelings, and she wanted to turn her crush into blatant and unscrupulous.
Seventeen-year-old love, ignorant and young, but extraordinarily sincere and unscrupulous.
He Xiao didn't believe it at first, and he also played the role of a spiritual mentor, analyzing with her that this kind of relationship was just dependence, just blind worship.
Yes, there is nothing wrong with dependence, it is worship, and there is nothing wrong with it, but she doesn't think that this is blindness, why can dependence only come from family affection? Why can't possessiveness be classified as liking?
If it's not crazy liking, there will be such a thing as possessiveness?
From the moment she liked him, she was extremely reluctant to call him uncle, and she didn't want this kind of unwarranted relationship to bind them.
And she also proved with practical actions how true her feelings are.
In the end, He Xiao believed it, but he gradually distanced himself from her and avoided her.
For a whole year, she was desperately getting closer, but he was desperately moving away, always leaving a distance between them that she couldn't catch up.
cares about her as before, but the attitude is different.
She wanted to break their uncle-nephew relationship, but he kept reminding her and restraining her with this relationship.
At the age of eighteen, he graduated from high school and attended the graduation ceremony.
They took a photo together, and he gave her a graduation gift.
When taking a group photo, although he hugged her shoulders, there was a fist distance between his bodies, restrained and alienated.
It's like two people who don't know each other very well, forcibly getting together, and the atmosphere is indescribably awkward.
She hated this way of getting along, and she was fed up with his polite and distant attitude.
So I lost my temper with him and said cruel words.
Two years later, she had been planning for a long time, and finally waited for an opportunity to muster up the courage to approach him again, obviously she felt that the distance between them was a little closer in the past two days, but how could she ..... Why is it the same as before?
*
On the first day, Xu Xinyi sat in the living room and waited for a long time just like the night three years ago.
The hour hand pointed to one o'clock in the morning, and He Xiao had not yet returned.
The next day, Xu Xinyi continued to wait, but still did not wait for him to come back.
Day 3...... At half past three in the morning, He Xiao finally came back, but Xu Xinyi did not wait in the living room.
He Xiao basically came back at three or four o'clock in the morning these days, and every time he came back, Xu Xinyi fell asleep on the sofa, but when he came back tonight, he didn't see Xu Xinyi on the sofa.
He Xiao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that this girl has finally calmed down.
He Xiao walked into the room lightly, changed into his training clothes, and then went to the bathroom, intending to take a shower.
opened the bathroom door, the moment he turned on the light, He Xiao's heart sank suddenly, his pupils contracted violently, and the next second he rushed into the bathroom at a gallop and half-knelt in front of the bathtub.
Xu Xinyi was lying in the bathtub, her head was empty and pillowed on the edge, the water had flooded to the position of her lips, and her nose was exposed, He Xiao held Xu Xinyi's face, the water was already cold, and the temperature of her body was also soaked in water.
"Heart! Purpose! ”
He Xiao's voice trembled uncontrollably, he gently patted Xu Xinyi's face, and eagerly called out her name.
He had panicked and forgot to probe her snort.
Just kept shouting her name.
"Huh?" Then, Xu Xinyi's eyes slowly opened, and they were in the dark for a long time, and the sudden light made her eyes unadaptable, her eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and her eyes were sleepy.
He Xiao's heart hanging in the air fell back into his stomach suddenly, and he breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the floor.
But what followed was the surging fire, and he scolded her with his head and face, and couldn't help but burst into foul language: "You're too long, aren't you?" Is this a place of the to sleep? You'll drown ...... if I'm late."
"Aren't you avoiding me?"
