Chapter 44: Drunken Peach Blossoms
I didn't expect that Nanfeng would talk about it at this time, leaving everyone in an embarrassing situation where there would be no more stairs.
But I will never blame Nanfeng, she can't see me suffer a little loss, and her own character is direct and strong, and she is by no means the kind of person who can endure it if she has words.
She wanted to say something more, but at this time, Zuo Chun coughed unexpectedly.
Nanfeng had been paying attention to Zuo Chun, not to mention that at this moment of silence, he suddenly coughed, and Nanfeng immediately subconsciously glanced back at Zuo Chun.
Zuo Chun looked at Nanfeng and asked gently, "Isn't the food delicious?" β
"It's delicious." Nanfeng was a little stupid for a moment, and he didn't understand what Zuo Chun meant by suddenly mentioning food?
"It's delicious, just sit down and eat it." Zuo Chun smiled faintly, and naturally put a chopstick dish in the bowl of Nanfeng.
Originally, Nanfeng was guilty of "nymphomaniac" to Zuo Chun, no matter how much of a joke he meant. But Zuo Chun's move made Nanfeng very moved, she agreed almost without thinking, and forgot to "support" me, sat back a little stupidly, and began to eat the dishes that Zuo Chun gave her little by little with the smile she thought was a lady.
I think Zuo Chun is really a little different from Nanfeng, could it be that Nanfeng, a random nymphomaniac, is really the right fate? However, I was also so angry that this damn girl casually threw out a sentence, so that everyone couldn't get off the stage, and she herself was a nymphomaniac who didn't care about it.
In any case, Nanfeng's words dropped a "bombshell" on several of us who were originally entangled, and the first to react was Helian Cheng.
He sneered again and again, then pulled me behind him and said, "Shen Jingyun, if Xiaoshuang and you are in love, then I have nothing to say, and I am not even ready to say what I think." β
I suddenly felt that what Helian Cheng was going to say next was something I didn't want to hear, and instinctively wanted to stop him: "Helian Cheng, don't say it, that's it, let's eat, it's rare that Brother Zuo Qiu can cook a table of good dishes himself." β
Shen Jingyun lowered his head and didn't speak, and the faint aura of alienation from before was recovering again, as if it wasn't him who was a little childish and impulsive before.
But Helian Cheng didn't want to stop, he turned his head and looked at me seriously, and said, "Xiaoshuang, we are friends, I don't deny this. But please also give me a chance to develop, I have liked you since I first met you. Do you remember? At that time, you were in danger, about to be sent to the incinerator, and I rushed in, and what I saw was not weak, cowardly, crying and helpless, but struggling, right? At that time, I was wondering, why is this girl so bold? Later, I save you, and in that case, you tell me where that person's weakness is...... Seriously, you think it's a very ordinary little thing, but I've never seen a girl as strong as you. I still remember the look in your eyes at that time, as if a little sad, a little lonely, but never gave in, I felt for the first time that a girl can be so resilient. β
Helian Cheng fell into the memory, and when he spoke, he unconsciously had a smile on his face, and the iconic dimples were very deep, and anyone could see that he was really happy.
Looking at him like this, I didn't know what to say, and I didn't know that at that time, Helian Cheng was thinking about these things in his heart? And Helian Cheng and I are just friends after all now, and I will feel a little embarrassed when he says this. In retrospect, I didn't know that this would be attractive, but I can only say that Helian Cheng's taste is too strange?
Helian Cheng looked at me and continued: "However, I should have just been kind and curious at that time. Later, do you remember when I asked you to eat bread? When you look at me and smile, in fact, your face is dirty and messy, but you smile so beautifully, and your eyes that were a little sad before have become so bright. I started liking you back then, and I wonder which bastard made you sad? If it were me, I'd like to see you smile like that all the time. β
I listened silently, and there was no way to respond to Helian Cheng's words in front of Shen Jingyun. It may be that my silence made Helian Cheng a little sad, but he still smiled and said, "Don't take my words to heart, I just want you to know." We're still friends, so please don't really take it to heart and continue to treat me as a friend, okay? β
"Okay." How can I give up Helian Cheng, a friend, if we can get along with each other without burden, it will naturally be the best for me now.
After getting my response, Helian Cheng smiled reassuringly, turned to look at Shen Jingyun and said, "It's always you, who makes Xiaoshuang sad." Now that Nanfeng has spoken, what else can you justify? Don't get close to Xiaoshuang, all you bring to her is hurt and sadness, but is there anything good? So, if you stay away from her, I really won't be polite next time, and I will always win against you. β
Shen Jingyun didn't speak, just looked up at me, that look had a taste of gradual indifference and alienation, I don't know why my heart was cold.
Instead, Lin Ruolan stood up again at this time: "Helian, is it okay if you don't accuse like this?" Don't talk about your identity as a friend, even I am now a friend of Shen Jingyun, have you seen me accusing Lin Xiaoshuang? Except just now, I can't bear it anymore. I can explain what you questioned Shen Jingyun, I was not in Shen Jingyun's arms, I just twisted my foot that day and grabbed Shen Jingyun's clothes. Why doesn't Shen Jingyun like to explain, you all have to blame him? β
"And before that, I didn't know about Shen Jingyun and Xiaoshuang. It was Xiaoshuang's friend who came over and accused Shen Jingyun, and then I learned everything. It was Shen Jingyun who told me personally, he likes Lin Xiaoshuang, what did he do wrong? What is there to blame? Is it just that he doesn't like to explain? Is it that he can't handle feelings? Lin Xiaoshuang, you don't feel sorry for Shen Jingyun, but I have no way to see him hurt like this. Why don't you give him a chance? Don't you know that he is actually like a child when he really faces his emotional side? It's easy to get hurt and it's easy to hide yourself. Lin Ruolan said that in the end, she glanced at Shen Jingyun, and anyone could see that Lin Ruolan's eyes were full of emotion.
However, I was fed up with Lin Ruolan's seemingly righteous and stern explanation, even if I was stingy or sensitive, I clearly remembered Lin Ruolan's smile looking at me through Shen Jingyun's shoulder, but this could not be a reason.
Now, I believe that there is a misunderstanding between Shen Jingyun and me, and what I can't get around is the night when he called Lin Ruolan's name.
Now, in this farce of chicken feathers, does Shen Jingyun feel that Lin Ruolan is sincere to him, and I, Lin Xiaoshuang, are ruthless?
I looked at Shen Jingyun and asked in the most stern and direct tone, "Is this what you like about me?" Since she sprained her foot, why don't you even give me an explanation? And Ruolan, I should call you sister, right, you keep saying that you are just friends with Shen Jingyun, but even if I have nothing to do with Shen Jingyun today, I have to remind you that your behavior is really beyond the scope of friends. Do you want Shen Jingyun's future girlfriends to swallow their anger and praise the greatness of your friendship? β
I think I must have been stimulated crazy by Lin Ruolan to say such a thing.
Shen Jingyun finally spoke: "I was out of shape just now, right, Lin Xiaoshuang?" If I didn't really like you, I wouldn't be like that. Even I feel naΓ―ve, I've always been naΓ―ve, and I've been stimulating each other with you. You said you like Helian Cheng, why do I have to explain it to you? I also have the right to be angry with you, right? However, this kind of naivety is only this once, and you are so anxious to make a clear relationship with me, and all I should do is to fulfill, isn't it? Ruolan, you don't have to make any excuses for me, saying that I am like a child or something. I'm sorry, I only have this kind of emotion in Lin Xiaoshuang, and I don't know why I like her so much? Before, it was like being confused. But it doesn't matter, once it's figured out, it's time to end. Just like Master said, people always have to suffer some injuries in order to see clearly and grow bigger. β
Shen Jingyun's words made me too sad, I didn't expect him to be so ruthless and tear apart this kind of "childish game" between me and him, which should not belong to adults.
It's a simple thing, but it's just gambling with each other, why did it come to the point of stalemate with each other, or even not looking back? I can't figure it out, but there's still a misunderstanding in between, right? Just like why did he call Lin Ruolan's name and delay so long before he came to me? And why am I not aggrieved? But he didn't seem to have the heart to explain, and I didn't want to listen anymore, and we couldn't even speak calmly.
I had a very sad feeling.
But at this time, the grandfather, who had drunk a glass of wine, suddenly slapped the table and roared loudly: "Enough, a group of young people get together and fall in love, is there really nothing serious to do?" β
After saying this, he shook the wine jug in his hand, looked at Zuo Qiu and said, "Zuo Qiu, you stinky boy, I'm afraid that only this pot of wine for me to drink is really the 'Full Moon Thought' brewed with honey and osmanthus as the main ingredients, right?" And what you give these young people to drink should be 'drunk peach blossoms', right? These guys are not angry, they drink a few sips of drunk peach blossoms, they don't want any cheeks or anything, they fight over here and scold the past, completely forgetting the environment and identity! Zuo Qiu boy, what the hell do you mean? β
