Chapter XXIII
Suddenly, he tasted a tear, a little bitter, forcing all his sanity back to normal. He looked up at her, and she turned her head away from him, biting her lip. Only then did he realize that most of her clothes had been faded by himself, and all the traces of his indulgence were all from the neck down. His hands had been pinched out by him with red marks and bruises. He let go of her hand in distress and helped her tidy up her clothes. I got up and brought a hot towel, carefully applied it to her, and kneaded it from time to time to disperse stasis.
Xu Yu snatched the towel, sorted out his clothes, and said with a crying voice: "If I don't stop it, will it be a while before I am not qualified to become qualified." β
Shi Chu smiled suddenly, hugged her, and let her twist in his arms, but he didn't let go.
"Whether I am qualified or not is determined by your words." He let go of her, looked into her eyes, and said seriously and reverently, "Is it okay to be my girlfriend?" β
Xu Promise looked at him, the hope in his eyes crept, just waiting for her words, whether he fell to the bottom or spread his wings, it all depended on her words.
But now, how could he force her so openly. The road ahead is dangerous and unknown, the sun rises, and the proud shadow will also rise from the darkness, life and death are uncertain, how can he force her to give him a thought and make him stupid.
She lowered her eyes and said categorically, "Wait for me to come back." β
Shi Chu let go of him, and he didn't think about it, promising whether to say that coming back would be equivalent to promising him, or to come back and consider giving him an answer. He now knew clearly in his mind that the promise must be exchanged for himself. He began to relent, it seemed that this room must not let her out.
"Do you not trust me?" Her sudden words softened his heart again, he said that he would trust her, how could he go back on his word? That's it, since it's what she wants to do, it's a big deal to accompany her. The first time, since he was able to save her from the fire, then, the second and third times, and countless times in the future, he would definitely be able to bring her back safely.
He stroked her face and said seriously, "Trust." β
Xu Promise smiled and said, "I promise you, I will be your girlfriend when I come back." β
Shi Chu shook his head: "No, you promise me to come back safely." β
Promise nodded: "Trust me, I can." There was a confident glint in her eyes, shining and scorching. Even the heart that followed him was illuminated a lot firmer.
Shi Chu went out to negotiate with Lao Zheng, and promised to take Gu Tingcheng's transcript and look through it again, "Black impermanence, hell, and the underworld" There is no doubt that these two cases are connected, does the "he" in Meng Xiang's mouth have anything to do with this man? Even if it has a relationship, she can't take care of it so much, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of her, she has to do it.
"Don't plan to tell Qin Feng about them? Have you done the Lord? Zheng Miao asked Shi Chu, and handed over a cigarette by the way.
Shi Chu politely refused, saying: "She doesn't like the smell of smoke." β
Zheng Miao laughed: "It seems that you have done the master, what is the perfect solution?" β
"It's nothing more than decorating GPS, but she probably won't let her pretend to be open, so she has to find a way to get her to agree."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhang ran over with the promised mobile phone, the three of you look at me, I look at you, hesitating whether to answer or not. In the end, Shi Chu made up his mind, picked up the mobile phone and picked it up, before he could speak, an old man's voice came: "Girl, how long has it been since you came to see the old man, have you forgotten Lao Tzu?" β
Shi Chu put his mind at ease, it seemed that he was the person he promised to know, and he replied politely: "Hello, the promise is not there, do you have anything to do?" I'll ask her to get back to you in a moment. β
There was silence for a moment before he said, "Who are you?" Where did the girl go? β
It's a very embarrassing question, let's say it's her boyfriend, and the relationship hasn't been determined yet, let's say it's a friend, it's too intimate. Shi Chu thought about it and decided not to answer the first question, and said directly: "She's still sleeping." β
"Oh, sleep, I'm tired, then let her have a good rest, and when she wakes up, just ask her to call me back." He was just about to hang up the phone, but the old man said, "Boy, be nice to her, do you hear it, if you dare to bully herβ’β’β’β’β’β’ and then hang up the phone."
Shi Chu looked at Zheng Miao: "Did this old man misunderstand something?" β
Zheng Miao and Xiao Zhang laughed and didn't speak. At the beginning of the time, it seemed that he really misunderstood, he pit the promise once, the reincarnation of cause and effect, and ended up pit himself once. Thinking about it, he laughed, such a pit, it doesn't hurt him to jump a few more times. Then he ignored the two men standing there and sent his mobile phone to Xu Xu.
Xu Promise immediately called back, and in less than two minutes, Xu Promise hung up the phone and then wanted to borrow a car to go out. Shi Chu was not at ease and said that he wanted to be with her. Xu Yu said directly: "The old man said, I can only go alone, don't worry, I will be fine, I will be back in three hours at most." It won't delay the business, you negotiate with Lao Zheng, don't find someone to follow me, even if you follow me, I will get rid of it. β
Shi Chu's face was displeased: "So mysterious? Who the hell is this old man? β
"Life-saving benefactor, don't think about it, he won't harm me, I just promised him to give him a piece of purity, you know, people like us love to invite enemies."
"You turn on the location of your phone and watch, and I agree?"
Xu Promise smiled: "Are you playing tricks with the criminal police?" No, you have to call your parents, why are you so disobedient? β
Before I could laugh, I heard the sound of laughter coming in from outside.
"Go, what kind of man is eavesdropping on the corner?" Shi Chu roared back.
Promise to smile, men have no less gossip than women. She stretched out her hand and asked Shi Chu for the key, and Shi Chu took out the key as she spoke: "Full of gas, be careful on the road, and call for help first if you encounter any danger." Give you three hours, and after three hours, if you haven't come back, I'll check the road surveillance to find youβ’β’β’β’β’β’"
The promise is very well-behaved, like a good boy who listens to his father, and slowly waits for the beginning of the time to finish everything. From time to time, she nodded cooperatively, nodded, and nodded again, and when she saw that he finally finished speaking, she held back a smile and said, "Are you sure that you are looking for a girlfriend, not a daughter?" β
Shi Chu was stunned, understood in seconds, and returned leisurely: "You come back, I will raise you." β
The hand that promised to open the door stopped, then opened it again, and walked away without looking back. She is afraid that she will really be soft-hearted, and she and her profession must have a strong heart.
Everything was still stretching vines in the dark, and she liked him, but she needed to give him an innocent self. So this vine, she will tear it off after all, and she believes that the truth will eventually be revealed.
Shi Chu looked at the empty doorway, and his eyes were a little lost. In her heart, there are some things that are more important than him after all. Who is her heart already filled with? He really can't understand sometimes. And sometimes, whether he really doesn't understand, or pretends not to understand, he is also used to being confused.
It is a village near the lake, with reeds on the edge of the lake and a gazebo in the lake. The old man was fishing on the suspension bridge, and there was a middle-aged man next to him, who looked young and only in his forties. But the old man told her that he was at least fifty-five years old. Like the old man, he wore a thin cotton and linen coat and trousers, and wore a hat, and his mature and wise masculinity was on full display in him.
She ran forward, said hello to the old man, and ignored the man. Even if she greeted him, he wouldn't pay attention to her, every time it was like this, for her, he was indifferent, rejecting people from thousands of miles away.
"Here? Go, go. When the old man saw her coming, he beckoned her to sit in the gazebo, and the man got up and went to the gazebo. The old man motioned for her to sit down. She nodded obediently, sat on the bamboo stool, stretched out her right hand, and placed it on the bamboo table. To her surprise, it was the middle-aged man sitting opposite this time, she quickly withdrew her hand, stood up, and looked at the middle-aged man defensively.
She looked at the old man and asked, "Old man, what do you mean by this, don't you usually show it to me?" β
For her words, the man's expression was still calm, and he couldn't see any emotion. The old man was angry, "You sit down, let him see it in the future, anyway, he prescribed the medicine before." β
"You're cheating me?" The promise is angry, and it can't be managed to respect the old and love the young. The old man was also anxious: "Nonsense, when have we hurt you, when have you been sick, we didn't rescue it, I am embarrassed to say, how old is it, I am even afraid of injections." β
"I'm not afraid, it's allergies, allergies to death, okay?" promised to retort in a low voice, the old man was indeed right, every time she was dying, the old man showed her. She is allergic to injections, antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, or any other type of medicine. Every time she was vaccinated, she hid for a few days and didn't come home until her father gave up on trying. Therefore, as long as she is sick, she drinks Chinese medicine and checks her pulse regularly, but this time she has not been checked for a long time, and the old man is in a hurry to call her over.
The old man used to be in the Chinese medicine department of a big hospital, and he retired early and came here alone. Xu promised not to know what the relationship between the old man and the man was, but every time she came here, she could see this man. The old man took the pulse, and he drank tea on the side, looking at the end of the lake, as if he didn't care about anything, and as if he had everything in sight. She never said a word to him, and sometimes, she took the initiative to say hello, but the man ignored him at all. Sometimes, she also asked the old man what was the origin of this man, and the old man just smiled: "When the time comes, he will naturally tell you." "The appearance of heaven that cannot be leaked made Xu Yu want to beat people.
