Chapter 135: Is It a Couple? (Refined)
……
When the cake-making activity was coming to an end, Kiki suddenly looked at the tree house behind the two of them mysteriously, and asked nervously and gossifiably: "Shushu, I'm super super curious, yes, you and Ah Yue, yes, are they a couple?" ”
"What?"
Qiqi people are small and big, and if they don't make a move, they will directly smash Tan Shurun's eyes with gold stars, and they will be a little stunned.
The problem? What is the answer? Even she didn't know.
In the final analysis, it is because Tan Shurun has never thought about it carefully. Kiki's question directly dragged Tan Shurun into the pair, 'Are you a couple?' The depth of these four words is as serious and rigorous as studying the mystery of the birth of the universe.
"Why, all of a sudden, ask?"
Tan Shurun couldn't figure it out, so he simply threw Qiqi a rhetorical question.
Qiqi thought about it very seriously, and replied: "I see you, I care about Ah Yue's appearance, these days, as long as it is related to Ah Yue, I will do it yourself, I heard Brother Luo Ma say last time, you almost rolled off the cliff in order to find herbs." It's good for him like this, what is it if it's not a couple? ”
Kiki paused, this is why she felt that Xiaoshu was duplicitous at first, and sneered at her, obviously so good to Ah Yue, but she was still so close to Brother Roma, it was simply stepping on two boats!
"So, yes? Is it a couple? ”
Seeing that Tan Shurun fell into a boundless silence, Kiki's curiosity overcame everything, and she glanced behind Tan Shurun without a trace again, since Xiaoshu wants to help her pursue Brother Roma, then she will also help her once!
Hey, hey, hey~~~
By the small window of the treehouse, you can see a black shadow standing, tall and long, with a cold and hard silhouette, as if it was also waiting for Tan Shurun's thoughtful answer.
After thinking about it for a long time, Tan Shurun popped out two words from between his teeth, and he was categorical.
"It's not."
They are not a couple.
From the financial building, she was embarrassed, and he came like a god to save her from the zombies; At this moment, she and Yue Yue both fell into this deep mountain and old forest, and they died nine lives, which can be picked up.
First acquaintance, until now.
They're all still just friends.
It's the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, and it should be the time when the wind is starting to get cooler, but the trees are still lush in the green mountains, and the birds are crying in the sea of flowers.
The branches are full of unknown small flowers, and the evening breeze blows, and the leaves rustle, like a spring on a shoulder.
Tan Shurun smiled indifferently: "We are just good friends." ”
He saved her many times, and she cared for her, and so on, reciprocating the favor and gratitude.
Even, even yesterday's kiss, she knew what she meant for herself after responding, but the more she didn't necessarily know, the more she didn't necessarily admit it.
In the long history of evolution, people have learned many things, such as walking upright, learning to use hands, and for example, when people are in an unfamiliar and dangerous situation, the brain will subconsciously make the most protective consciousness according to the lessons of the past.
Somewhat cowardly, but useful.
For Tan Shurun, negating everything, at least there is an absolutely worthwhile benefit, that is, she protects herself, at least after thinking about it, she doesn't have to feel like her eyes are in the sand, sour, and painful.
Under the soft light of Xuanyue, Qiqi looked at the black shadow, swallowed a handful of saliva, and was entangled in her heart, is this considered self-defeating?
She was about to say something and quickly redeem it, but who knows, Roma's voice came from the mountain road, and then, she saw Roma running up, sweating profusely, panting and saying: "Xiaoshu, the statistics are out, except for the patriarch and Grandma Sam, everyone else will leave with us." ”
Hearing this, Tan Shurun nodded, knowing in his heart.
This flood took the lives of most of the Qing people, and most of these 'majority' people are also elderly, and the remaining young people are mostly willing to choose to go outside to break through, so Tan Shurun is not surprised by such a result.
"Then, divide into a group of six, and try to arrange the combination of members in each group reasonably according to the skills and kinship that each person is good at."
Rome nodded in agreement, and then his eyes fell on Kiki, who was nervous on the side, and said strangely, "Kiki, why are you here?" What's wrong? The face is so ugly? ”
As he spoke, Rome reached out and probed Kiki's forehead, touched his own forehead, and after comparing it, he frowned and said, "You don't have a fever, or are you sick again?" I've told you all, don't eat haysai all day long! ”
Seeing that the more Roma talked, the more unhappy she became, Kiki wanted to cry without tears, and it was estimated that there was an even more unhappy one in that room, she was interrupted by Rome who suddenly came out, and when she wanted to ask and explain again, she found that it was not the best time to continue the topic just now.
"No discomfort!"
Kiki was angry in her heart, and hurriedly drove Roma who was talking about her disobedience down the mountain, and then faced Tan Shurun, and her confidence was a little lacking, "Shushu ...... Ay...... Forget it, I'd better go and see if Roma has anything I need help with! ”
As soon as the words fell, Kiki took the cake that had already been prepared and put it in the wooden box, and ran away.
Tan Shurun was left behind, his face was full of astonishment, and he shook his head helplessly, and laughed for a while.
……
Tomorrow I will leave, and I will go back to face the cruelty and pain of reality.
For more than three months, nearly 100 days of frightened and sleepless nights, all the panic has dissipated with the awakening of Yue Yue, probably due to the happiness of the rest of his life.
At night, Tan Shurun stood under the tree, "Ah Yue, can you promise me one thing?" ”
Yue Yue bowed slightly, and motioned for Tan Shurun to continue.
The silver moon swayed slowly into the night, and the wind was clear.
Today all day, Yue Yue gave her a very strange feeling, as if, lost.
And she couldn't guess where his emotions came from.
Yue Yue saw that she didn't speak, her eyes narrowed slightly, she raised her hand and rubbed her head, carefully gathered the broken hair on her sideburns behind her ears, and said in a dumb voice: "What do you want to tell me?" ”
What else do you want to tell me other than that we're just friends?
The sachet in her arms was close to Tan Shurun's chest, the incense beads poked her heart, a little panicked, she carefully took out the sachet to the sky, put it on the palm of her hand, handed it to Yue Yue in front of her, offered a treasure, and said seriously: "The Qing people have a tradition, on the day of the harvest sacrifice, the sachet sewn by hand, as well as the dyed incense beads, pray to the heavens, and the wish can be realized." ”
"I made it with my own hands, because it wasn't ordinary ugly, so I hesitated for a long time." Tan Shurun smiled embarrassedly, feeling that he was giving a gift to others, but it turned out that the person who took out his hand was so low-looking, it was so embarrassing.
"But in the end, I still want to give it to you."
"Why?"
The more I looked, the light darkened until it was pitch black.
Why did you give him a sachet? Stupid woman, do you know what the sachet of the Qing clan represents, you just send it out? It's not that it's just a friend, what do you do with sachets?
Tan Shurun didn't think much about it, just thought that Yue Yue asked why it was so ugly and sent it to him, and immediately explained nervously, "Because I sewed it because I was thinking about you, you didn't even find out, are you always hurt?" ”
Suddenly, Yue Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.
Was it meant to be given to him? So, earlier, he was depressed for a day, what exactly was he doing?
Yue Yue's eyes were scorching, so hot that he almost melted people, but Tan Shurun was embarrassed to lower his head and miss because of what he was going to say next.
"My wish is to invite you, please Ah Yue, no matter what, don't give up your life casually, and live well."
As if feeling that such a prayer was not weighty enough, Tan Shurun finally mustered up the courage after some entanglement, raised his eyes, stared at the obsidian eyes that became more and more obsidian, stared at him as if he had changed his own self in his eyes, and said word by word: "Even if the whole world abandons you, you must be safe." ”
The world is difficult, but it is simply the word peace, which is more precious than any treasure of great value.
Tan Shurun looked at the man in front of her, his eyebrows were picturesque, handsome, her memory of his life, his final ending, sad and desolate ashes, not even the loess and white bones were left.
If only it could change.
Therefore, she asked for nothing more than peace.
In return, she will do her best to protect him and live safely.
Yue Yue lowered his head, looking at Tan Shurun's silent and lonely expression for a while, a little strange, he always felt that it was difficult to guess a woman's thoughts, and among them, Tan Shurun's thoughts were even worse, but why did he suddenly say this to him?
Is it safe?
He had already gone back and forth from the brink of life and death many times, peace was impossible, and if she knew who he was, she was afraid that she would hate him for dying early, how could she still hope that he would live well?
Yue Yue lowered his eyes, poured out the incense beads in the sachet, the beads were round and fine, he placed it on the palm of his hand, raised his hand to meet the moon, the beads seemed to be soaked in moonlight frost, and the halo was soft.
Tan Shurun stood under the tree, looking up at Yue Yue, the man's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, his thin lips were pursed, for no reason, he thought of the question that Qiqi asked her earlier - is it a couple? She only felt that when she saw Yue Yue at this time, her heart twitched violently, and suddenly, it hurt terribly.
In a panic, her hand was held, and her palm was warm and a little cool, which stimulated her to a spirit, Tan Shurun looked at Yue Yue suspiciously, blinked his eyes, and asked him silently, what do you want to do?
Yue Yue held Tan Shurun's hand, while placing it on the palm of the spread hand, his hands clasped, and the fragrant beads of brilliance were waiting in it, quietly exuding the fragrance of rosemary pine wood, ambiguous.
Tan Shurun lowered his gaze from Yue Yue's starry eyes, along the graceful curve of the shoulder blades, all the way down, until it landed on his slender and white hand, with distinct knuckles, and then, watching Yue Yue clasp the hands of the two together, slowly changing to ten fingers clasping.
Throughout, no one wanted him alive.
When he was a man, he did not; Later, he became a monster, and naturally he would not have it.
But he will do his best, at least accompany the little woman in front of him, and walk for a while longer.
"I promise that I won't die without your permission."
