Chapter 097: Background
Wu Jianhua then said to everyone: "I always feel that I destroyed the fire storage jade. When she transferred her feelings to Zheng Qihangβit was just gratitude, not loveβand I shouldn't have given up my pursuit of her easily, because Zheng Qihang didn't love her at all. β
"When Chu Huoyu came to me, I made it very clear." I say.
"yes, I know that, too. Chu Huoyu told me. So Chu Huoyu was very frustrated, and she felt that she didn't love Zheng Qihang, you know, she washed Zheng Qihang's clothes for a long time, but Zheng Qihang never accepted her feelings, so she would do such an extreme thing. I think if I don't give up, if I really love her, then she won't be so confused when she's desperate when she's been emotionally frustrated. Wu Jianhua, who has always been superficial, became very deep at this time.
"Not bad." Xu Xianren said.
"Thank you, Wu Jianhua, thank you." Jie Feixiang was suddenly very excited.
"The reason why I tell my brothers what I think is that I hope you will not follow my path again." Wu Jianhua looked at Jie Feixiang and said.
"I know how to do it."
"Jianhua, you have been silent in front of you, you dare to touch the scene, and you are reflecting on yourself." Xu Xianren said.
"I'm reflecting on it these days." Wu Jianhua smiled bitterly.
"But I still can't believe it, why did Chu Huoyu do this? Isn't she afraid that people will know? Shi Zhiqiang said.
"That's right." Everyone agreed.
"That's what I find weird, too. She also asked the man to come to the school gate to pick her up. Isn't that too ostentatious? Did she deliberately want some people to know? Sometimes I wish that person was her own uncle. Wu Jianhua said.
When it was time for dinner, I saw through the school gate that there were many students coming out of the dormitory with rice bowls.
"Forget it. Each person has his own life, and each has his own way of living. It's time to eat. "I deliberately interrupted the conversation.
Everyone was hungry, so I made this suggestion, and then scattered as birds and beasts. Jiefeixiang and a few others who lived outside went to the classroom to get their rice bowlsβtheir rice bowls were all in the drawers in the classroom. Wu Jianhua and I walked to the dormitory.
"Wu Jianhua, when did you know what alley Chu Huoyu lives in. What alley do you say? "I pretended I didn't know.
"Fangjia Lane. It's been three or four days. That night, her uncle didn't come to pick her up, so I followed her to her place. Who would have thought that her uncle was waiting at the intersection, and when he saw her, he came up and held her hand, extremely intimate. Then we went into the alley together and went upstairs. Wu Jianhua said.
"I thought she still lived in the Jiefeixiang area." I say.
"She's already moved. It was after she took a week's leave of absence to move. She moved as soon as she returned. I spent several nights staring at it to find out. Because several times her uncle came to pick her up, she couldn't follow her. β
"Or do you have the heart." I say.
"Let me tell you, Zheng Qihang, Chu Huoyu has become what it is today, and you are responsible."
We walked on the concrete road in front of the classrooms and dormitories. Stepping on the leaves of the sycamore trees that fell on the concrete road, the dry leaves made a crisp sound. It hasn't rained in a while.
"What is my responsibility?" I stopped. There were already a lot of people walking towards the dormitory with food from the cafeteria.
"Didn't I always wish you were kind to her? If you accepted her love, would she go this far? Wu Jianhua was a little excited.
"Love can't be forced, it's not that you don't know that, just as you can't force her to love you."
"yes. But I can't figure out why she took this step. Zheng Qihang, I think there must be a reason for this, there must be a reason for last resort, right? Wu Jianhua tilted his head to ask for my opinion.
"But what could be the reason? Is she short of food and clothing? However, looking at her current dress, it is obviously much more fashionable, and she is dressed very maturely. She will never sell herself cheaply for food and clothing. β
"No way. Do you think Chu Huoyu will be a person who disregards his reputation and his future for the sake of dressing? β
"Is there some secret here?" I chuckled in my heart, and Wu Jianhua woke up the dreamer with a word, "Did that man seize Chu Huoyu's weakness and coerce her?" β
"It's not certain, but there's always a reason. Chu Huoyu is not such a debauched person. Wu Jianhua said affirmatively.
β¦β¦
After dinner that night, I quietly walked to the back door of the school by myself. Xiong Yanfei and I made an appointment to go for a walk on the gravel road.
Since the last time Xiong Yanfei went to visit Xiang Wangfu in the hospital, I stayed with her for a while, and we still haven't dated alone until now. We both wanted to date, but we couldn't get our wish, either because something happened to me or because she was unwell.
Xiong Yanfei had a cold for a long time.
For some reason, Xiong Yanfei's physique is very bad.
But we got along very well. We almost all express our joy for each other in the classroom, with a look, with a gesture, or, with a greeting.
Xiong Yanfei would sit at the front of my seat almost every recess, as long as I stayed in the classroom. We explore learning issues together and complement each other's strengths and weaknesses; Read music together and learn to sing the popular songs she hears at the moment. Sometimes I just sit together silently, and I feel happy even if I don't say anything.
My classmates accepted this intimate relationship between me and Xiong Yanfei. Even, even the head teacher Zhu Zhuwu knows about our relationship.
That night, when I walked out of the back door of the school, I saw Xiong Yanfei standing on the side of the road.
Autumn came early that year, still in October, and the temperature was already relatively low in the evening. Xiong Yanfei was wearing a thin sky-blue coat, and her black hair, which was just over her shoulders, was blown by the evening breeze and swayed slightly.
"Xiong Yanfei." I quickened the pace.
"You're here." Xiong Yanfei turned around and smiled.
"What are you looking at, so fascinating."
"Enjoying the view. The view of the suburbs is simply beautiful. It's quiet, it's serene, it's soft, and there's an old farmer driving a cow past me. β
"And that's the background." I walked over to Xiong Yanfei's side.
"Background?"
"Yes, it's a backdrop for you. A pure and beautiful girl standing in front of such a background should be breathtakingly beautiful. β
"You're always exaggerating."
"You're so beautiful. If you had a camera, how nice it would be to capture such footage. I said.
"My dad just had a camera. Why don't you bring a picture with me tomorrow night? By the way, we don't think we've taken pictures together yet. I don't have a picture of you yet. β
"Okay." I say.
"But we have to wash the photos ourselves, so we can't let my dad see them." Xiong Yanfei said.
"Of course. Isn't there a photo studio near the school? β
We walked along the gravel road.
Xiong Yanfei raised his hands, half-tilted his head, and gently turned his body, in a state of complete relaxation.
"It's been a long time since I've experienced this feeling."
"yes, I've been saying I'm going to come here, but I've always been delayed. It seems like it's been a long time since we last walked here. I said.
"That's right. I don't know how long it has been since I said that we came here together to learn to sing "Sweet Honey". And this song we would have sung a long time ago. β
"But I still want to experience what it's like for us to sing this song together."
"Then let's sing a song. Do you remember the lyrics? β
"Yes."
"One sentence at a time. Sweet honey, you smile sweetly, like flowers blooming in the spring breeze, blooming in the spring breeze. Xiong Yanfei took the lead in singing. She leaned sideways and looked at me affectionately.
"Where, where have I seen you, your smile is so familiar, I can't remember it for a while." I met Xiong Yanfei's gaze and continued to sing.
"Ah, in a dream. I've seen you in my dreams, I've seen you in my dreams. β
"Sweet sweet smile how sweet."
We sang in duet one by one. An indescribable feeling arose in my heart. Perhaps, just like the feelings expressed in this song, love makes me feel sweet.
We finished singing it and couldn't help but sing it again.
Xiong Yanfei was also intoxicated.
Our hands as we approached collided from time to time, and I suddenly wanted to hold that hand, to experience what it was like to hold that hand in my hand. And once I thought about it, my heart beat faster, and the moment Xiong Yanfei's hand touched mine, I didn't dare to open my fingers to hold it.
In the end, I gave up.
We crossed the railway bridge hole.
"Ah, I can't tell you how comfortable it is." Xiong Yanfei said.
"It would be nice to be so happy every moment of my life."
"Will you have unhappy moments, this time?" Xiong Yanfei asked.
"Ah, no, oh, you've always had a cold all this time, and I'm sorry for you. Your constitution doesn't seem to be good. It's a lack of exercise. I said.
"Yes, my physique has always been bad, and I can't do any exercise. So always cold. Actually, I can't catch a cold. β
"Can't catch a cold?" I was puzzled.
"Cold immunity decreases."
"Oh, that's it. Or you catch a cold because your immunity is weakened. "I was relieved.
"Hehe, almost. However, even if I have a cold, I feel very happy, so I won't be sad. You're the one that worries me. The other day, you were injured as if you had been in a fight. Do you have a lot to hide from me? β
"Why? I didn't tell you that I got up at night to go to the toilet and touched it. It's your constitution that worries me. You can exercise a little workout. Exercise a little bit every day, and stick to it for a long time, and your physique will get better. Look at you, you don't even move in physical education class. β
"I listen to you."
We've gone a little further. The clouds in the west slowly faded, and night crept in. The rice fields on both sides of the road are lined with rows and rows of harvested crops, like a square map.
"Isn't it time for us to turn back?" I say. "It looks like I'm going to study at night."
"We haven't been to our old place yet. I've been thinking about that place for a long time. Don't know if there are any fish in the water? β
"I guess the fish are gone. You see, the water in the creek is almost out of flow. β
"But I still want to check it out. What, are you afraid of being late? β
"It's not that I'm afraid of being late." I say.
"We're late once. Haven't we never been late? It's fun to be late once in a while, you say? Xiong Yanfei looked at me mischievously.
"I've been late. I'm afraid you can't stand the teacher's eyes. β
"I'm fine. If the teacher criticizes, let him criticize once. I'll go in first, and you'll come in a few minutes later. β
"Okay. Then let's go to the old place. Soon it will be dark. β
