Chapter 64: The Scenery in the Night
"Shut up!" Cheng Xi's eyes were red, and she almost roared out this sentence, and pushed her away and rushed out of the house.
Aunt Liu hurriedly stepped forward, picked up Liao Yanxiang, who fell to the ground, and comforted: "Mrs... Don't say that. ”
"Don't you know if I don't say it? Who is Yin Lele? His gambler father is a bottomless pit, can Cheng Xi get a good result if he gets involved with her? She looked at the broken skin on her hand, waved her hand and said, "Let Master Li follow, don't let him have an accident." ”
Cheng Xi walked aimlessly on the road, and he didn't know how long he had walked, he knew that there was a family driver behind him, and as long as he turned his head, someone would send him home.
But the stubbornness of the young man made him unwilling to lose like this, and he didn't know how long he had walked, but he had unconsciously walked to Xie Zijin's door.
Looking at the light on the window, Cheng Xi was in a trance, what was Xie Zijin doing at this time? Writing homework? Or practice?
Just as he was thinking about it, the wooden door was opened from the inside, and Xie Zijin looked at him with a stunned face while carrying the garbage.
"Why are you here?"
"I..." Cheng Xi didn't know how to answer, did she want to say that she quarreled with her stepmother and ran away from home?
No, no, no, that's too rebellious.
"I want to eat fried potato chips, which is the one we usually eat." He casually came up with a reason, even though he knew it sucked.
But fortunately, Xie Zijin didn't expose him, and turned around and shouted to Grandma Xie, who was watering the flowers in the yard: "Grandma, my book has fallen to Lin Xiaoyou, I'll go out." ”
Grandma Xie didn't see Cheng Xi standing in the shadows, and said very shamelessly: "You, one day you will leave people with Xiaoyou." ”
Xie Zijin closed the door, patted Cheng Xi's shoulder and said, "Let's go, I'll have a treat." ”
There were no people at the food stall late at night, so Xie Zijin found a corner and sat down, ordered the fried potato chips he usually eats, and ordered two bottles of beer. Pour a full cup for Cheng Xi. That posture is no different from the big brother in society.
"Do you still drink?" Cheng Xi always thought that people like him should not pay attention to anything else in their eyes except for study, Lin You, and music.
Xie Zijin didn't say a word, drank a glass first, smashed it, and said, "Do you think I'm also that kind of good child?" Don't smoke, don't drink, don't play games, just study, take the first place in every exam, and don't go anywhere except school? ”
Cheng Xi smiled: "It's really hard to be a good child." ”
The cold beer on a summer night stretches from the throat to the stomach, and the smell of fried potatoes fills the air, and when you take a deep breath, you feel satisfied.
The proprietress is very real, Cheng Xi said that she wanted perverted and spicy chili noodles, and directly put two full spoonfuls. The bright red pepper noodles are wrapped in potato chips, and I am happy to die in one bite.
"Hot... Scald! Scald! Cheng Xi took a bite, but unfortunately it was too hot just out of the pot, and he didn't know what to do in his mouth, so he could only fan himself with his hands.
Xie Zijin shook his head, poured him another glass of beer, and saw a Daben parked at the intersection not far away. "How do I go home with you..."
The word "mother" Xie Zijin really couldn't speak, looking at Cheng Xi's appearance, it was estimated that he had a lot of trouble with his family, and the words turned into "Quarrel with your family?" ”
Cheng Xi buried his head in eating, and replied absentmindedly: "I'm used to it." ”
"If you have anything to say, after all, we are all family." After Xie Zijin finished speaking, he saw Cheng Xi on the other side was obviously stunned for a moment, and finally whispered: "I am not a family with her, and she doesn't like anything I do." ”
"Xie Zijin!" Lin You held Rhubarb and didn't know where he suddenly jumped out, and saw Xie Zijin holding a wine to drink, his eyes widened.
Before Cheng Xi could turn around, he was slapped on the back, choked on the chili noodles in his throat, and almost died on the spot.
"Lin You, you murder you!"
"You two are not righteous enough, you don't even call me for this kind of supper, because I usually miss you when I have some delicious food." Lin You couldn't help but say, sat next to Xie Zijin, and beckoned the boss to come with two more.
Xie Zijin glanced at her, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain about her, "You said that you would go out for a walk in pajamas at night, what do you want to do?" ”
"What the hell! What do I wear for a dog walk? I haven't said anything about you, you don't study well at a young age, what kind of wine do you drink in the middle of the night? ”
Cheng Xi was choked with chili noodles full of tears, and when he saw Lin You staring at the plate in front of him, he immediately sat up straight and circled the plate like a chicken protecting food.
Regarding Lin You's combat effectiveness in this regard, Cheng Xi had already understood it, so he didn't blame him for being so guarded.
Xie Zijin pushed his plate over, and said to Cheng Xi helplessly: "I've been with Rhubarb for a long time, nature, nature." ”
The wind in the night was a little cool, which made Lin You shiver subconsciously, Xie Zijin shook his head, took off his coat and put it on her, and continued to chat with Cheng Xi.
"I've run away from home, and you two are still showing affection in front of me, which is immoral."
After two glasses of beer, Cheng Xi told all the things about the quarrel with the woman at home, speaking of Liao Yanxiang, Cheng Xi was so hateful, but he couldn't do anything except quarrel with her.
"Isn't it just a quarrel, my dad and I always quarrel, this kind of thing, you have to pay attention to tactics." Lin You shook his head and shook his head, summed up his experience of "dealing with" his father at home, and came up with a way to win.
Cheng Xi immediately became interested, and a flattering smile appeared on his face, "What tactics are there, tell me about them." ”
Xie Zijin patted Lin You's head, "Her tactics are: she should eat, drink, and her heart is bigger than the sky." Everyone else is mad to death, but she doesn't have a. ”
Obviously, this set of tactics did not work against Cheng Xi, he lowered his head in frustration, it seemed that he could only continue to quarrel with Liao Yanxiang.
In fact, Cheng Xi didn't want to make things so bad, his father gave all his economic power to that woman before he went abroad, and now he is like being choked by fate, unable to move.
Speaking of the culprit of Cheng Xi's running away from home, Lin You still felt that the problem was Yin Lele, she struggled in her heart for a while, and asked Cheng Xi: "Don't be angry when I tell me something." ”
Cheng Xi poked the potato chips and nodded listlessly.
"Have you ever wondered why so many people around you don't like Yin Lele. From your stepmother to Mo Xin, have you thought about why Yin Lele is not likable? ”
The question finally got to the point, and Xie Zijin nodded at her in praise. Cheng Xi was also stunned, he had never thought about it carefully, he thought that others didn't like Yin Lele because she had a weird temper.
But now that Lin You asked, he felt that it was not so simple. If Mo Xin hates Yin Lele because he can't stand it anymore, then... Why does Liao Yanxiang hate her?
That woman never cared about her friends, but she refused to let Yin Lele do anything about it. She hasn't gotten along with Yin Lele, so why can't she get over this matter?
"Cheng Xi, you should think about it, whether we are looking at Yin Lele with colored glasses, or she didn't plan to get along with us in the first place."
Xie Zijin didn't have any feelings for Yin Lele, but after she deliberately injured Lin You that time, he began to pay attention to Yin Lele, and he always felt that Yin Lele was not as weak as he seemed on the surface. Sometimes the eyes she inadvertently reveals don't look like a submissive girl at all.
Cheng Xi propped his head and whispered, "I don't know." ”
In the middle of the night, Xie Zijin got up and patted him on the shoulder, "Go back and sleep and think about these things again, let's go first." ”
Until Cheng Xi withdrew from his messy emotions, he couldn't see Xie Zijin and Lin You for a long time. As if he suddenly remembered something, he slammed the table and scolded: "Xie Zijin, you have a treat!" ”
Lin You led the rhubarb, stepped on the starlight shattered shadow and walked back with Xie Zijin, wearing Xie Zijin's coat, which had a very faint smell of laundry detergent.
She rubbed her nose and sneezed. Xie Zijin turned his head to look at her, frowning and helping her tighten her clothes. "Remember to wear more clothes next time you go out."
"Hmm." She nodded slightly. Catching a glimpse of Xie Zijin's red fingers, he knew at a glance that it was the reason for playing the guitar for too long.
The last time he failed the competition, and the band suddenly disbanded, he must have felt very uncomfortable. Thinking of this, Lin You felt a little guilty in his heart, he was heartless and heartless every day, and Xie Zijin would not tell himself if he was uncomfortable.
It seems that Xie Zijin has always been taking care of her and accommodating her. I haven't done anything for him.
Lin You stretched out his hand to hold Xie Zijin's fingers, and smiled brightly under the dim street lamp, his dimples filled with the wind and stars of the summer night, lighting up the most beautiful everything.
"Xie Zijin, I've decided!"
"Decide what?" Xie Zijin was confused by her sudden seriousness.
"I decided... Study hard and make progress every day. She smiled playfully, holding rhubarb in one hand and Xie Zijin in the other.
A girl with a bright smile in the moonlight, a young man with indifferent eyes but a raised corner of his mouth, and a big yellow dog wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue. Slowly melted into the night, into the time, and became a past that they could never go back to after many years.
In the midterm exam, Lin You narrowly squeezed into the ranks of eugenics, Mo Xin laughed at her for fighting the landlord and losing, the casino was frustrated, and the examination room was proud.
Regarding his highs and lows, Lin You didn't know whether to be happy or cry. Although this time I have dealt with the exam, I can't guarantee that my mother will give all the credit to those walnuts, and will she force herself to eat walnuts even more when the time comes.
As it turned out later, she was overthinking. Because her dear mother replaced the walnuts with milk and big bone broth.
Why? Because Lin You and Mo Xin participated in the women's volleyball event of the Summer Games.
When Ye Wenwen knew that Lin You participated in the sports meeting, his first reaction was to ask: "Others are okay, just you?" Is there a danger to life? ”
Lin You was speechless and almost hit the wall.
