Chapter 014: Drinking and Confessing
The car, on the road, drove quietly.
When he arrived at the door of Shu Wan's house, Shen Fangsheng stopped the car, turned to look at Shu Wan, and said, "Shu Wan, I am sorry that you and Qi Tong's wedding cannot be attended." I bless you all to live the life you want. ”
Shu Wan said, "Thank you." Best wishes. ”
She looked away, a little afraid to make eye contact with Shen Fangsheng, the affection contained in it was unbearable.
"Not going to sit at my house?" She asked.
"Nope. Rest early. Shen Fangsheng said.
He got out of the car and watched Shu Wan get out of the car. After that, he waved his hand at Shu Wan, got into the car, started the car and left.
Shu Wan stood and watched his car disappear from sight. She turned around and saw Qi Tong standing in the doorway, looking at her thoughtfully.
"We met at the clams. He said that he had originally asked Huang Juncheng for dinner, but Huang Juncheng missed the appointment. He had a meal with me and Qian Bao. When I was scattered, he said that Qian Bao was not on the way with me, and he was on the way with me, and he sent me back. Shu Wan walked over and explained.
Qi Tong chuckled almost invisibly. That kind of laughter made Shu Wan feel very uncomfortable, with a little contempt and a little mockery. He turned and went back to the house.
Shu Wan sensitively caught Qi Tong's strangeness, she chased after her, frowned, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Qi Tong's footsteps paused, didn't say anything, and walked back to the living room.
"It's back. Tired or not? How did you eat today? Do you want Aunt Tong to prepare some more food for you? Ding Xiang sat in the living room, turned his face to look at Shu Wan, and asked in a loud voice.
Shu Zhihua smiled and said, "Asking so many questions at once, how can the child answer?" ”
Shu Wan smiled on his face and raised his voice and said, "I'm full." I ate pretty well today. It's just a little tired. ”
"Then you go upstairs and rest." Ding Xiang said.
"Hmm." Shu Wan answered and went upstairs.
Qi Tong broke the ground and did not follow upstairs.
He chatted a few words with Ding Xiang and them in the living room, and then said goodbye, without even going upstairs to say a word to Shu Wan.
"Why do they feel weird today?" Ding Xiang looked at Qi Tong's back and said. No matter how she looked, she felt that Qi Tong's back was a little lonely.
"No, I don't. Just now, Qi Tong went to the door several times to see if Wan had come back. You, everything is fine, but the suspicion is too serious. Don't be suspicious. Luckily, Wan is not like you. Shu Zhihua said.
Shu Wan returned to the bedroom, washed up and lay on the bed. Somehow, she felt a little uncomfortable. After thinking about it carefully, it should be that Qi Tong didn't go upstairs with her. He hadn't hugged and kissed for a day, and he couldn't wait before the change. She used to be annoyed and tired, and always laughed at him, "As for it", but today she has no intimacy, but feels uncomfortable.
She called Qi Tong. Over there, it was so quiet that only the wind could be heard.
"You're not at my house?" Shu Wan was surprised.
"Hmm. I went back to my home. Qi Tong said in a low voice, his tone full of exhaustion.
"Where are you? How does it feel to be outside? ”
"In the garden downstairs."
"It's so late, what are you doing there?"
"Don't do it."
Shu Wan didn't say anything more, and Qi Tong didn't look for another topic. The two of them quietly held their mobile phones and listened to each other's gentle breathing. After a while, Qi Tong said, "You should rest early." ”
"Good. You too. Shu Wan said.
The two didn't say goodnight to each other and hung up the phone.
Shu Wan didn't know that Qi Tong was awkward. But Qi Tong didn't ask, she didn't plan to take the initiative to confess anything. Originally, there was nothing to confess. Similar misunderstandings will inevitably occur in the future. She trusts Qi Tong, and she hopes that Qi Tong can trust her as much as she trusts him. If you really have a question, you can ask it directly. Instead of thinking crankily by yourself and letting misunderstandings roll.
Qi Tong sat in the garden and blew the cold wind. He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but held back. Shen Fangsheng likes Shu Wan, it's obvious. He was stupid before, and he had never paid attention to Shen Fangsheng's eyes when he looked at Shu Wan. I can see clearly today that the eyes are full of love, dependence, pain and reluctance.
Shen Fangsheng hugged her, saved her desperately, and sent her home. Shen Fangsheng, in the name of his grandfather, made several appointments, but he didn't make an appointment to come to his house for a light meal, but he sent Shu Wan to the door of his house.
When did Shen Fangsheng ever be so courteous to a woman? He is a person who even dislikes women when they touch him.
Qi Tong suddenly remembered that time in the Qian family's compound, Shen Fangsheng's "Don't Talk". At that time, Shen Fangsheng sang so affectionately that he thought it was sung to Qian Bao. At that time, Qian Bao and Shu Wan were sitting next to each other. In this way, this song is sung to Shu Wan.
That's right, too. Qian Bao's love for Shen Fangsheng is well known to passers-by. He didn't have to sing such a song.
So, does Shu Wan know that Shen Fangsheng likes her?
Shu Wan is so smart, it is impossible not to know.
She knew that Shen Fangsheng liked herself, but she still lived with Shen Fangsheng as a lonely man and widow, where did she put her husband? Does she also have feelings for Shen Fangsheng? What kind of feelings?
Shu Wan has always been a person who knows how to avoid suspicion. She asked Shen Fangsheng to send her home alone, does it mean that she also has a good impression of him?
Qi Tong thought of this, and in the middle of the night, his back was sweating.
He thought about it for a long time and called Shen Fangsheng.
"It's so late, is there something wrong?" Shen Fangsheng asked. His voice, sober.
"You haven't slept yet?" Qi Tong asked deliberately.
"Hmm. It's almost gone. There is still something to deal with. ”
"I saw you coming to Donglin County today, why don't you come to my house to sit?" Qi Tong said this deliberately.
Shen Fangsheng hesitated for two seconds and said, "Send my sister-in-law home." I originally made an appointment with Huang Juncheng for dinner today, but he missed the appointment. I happened to see Qian Bao and my sister-in-law at the door of the clam, so I had a meal together. I dropped by and sent my sister-in-law over. I didn't have something at hand, so I didn't bother to contact you when I came back to deal with it. ”
After saying this, he began to sweat all over his body. Somehow, he felt that Qi Tong knew something.
"When are you leaving?"
"The day after tomorrow."
"Let's have dinner together tomorrow."
"Okay."
"Let's go to Qishu Tongwan."
"Where?"
"Near the Qian family's compound. I'll go back and send you the location. ”
"Okay."
"Rest early."
"Okay."
Hanging up the phone, Qi Tong took several deep breaths.
The next night, Shen Fangsheng came to Qishu Tongwan as promised. He looked at the plaque at the door and chewed it several times before he understood the meaning of the name. Qi Shu Tongwan......
Qi Tong prepared some side dishes and placed them on the coffee table on the table. On the carpet, there are also two bottles of liquor.
The two looked at each other but did not smile, each with their own thoughts. As in foreign countries, the two sat directly on the carpet.
After a few drinks, Qi Tong said, "Fang Sheng, we've known each other for many years, right?" ”
Shen Fangsheng nodded and said, "The friendship of the kindergarten." ”
Qi Tong said: "I can't repay your kindness to me in my life. If it weren't for your father's disregard for his own body and fished me out of the river that year, I would have died. If it weren't for saving me, your father wouldn't have relapsed and just left. Your mother won't be overly worried and leave the next year. ”
"It's all fate."
"Fang Sheng, although we are not related by blood. But in my heart, you, like Xu Xiao, are my own brother. ”
Shen Fangsheng did not answer. He picked up his glass and raised it towards Qi Tong, and he drank three glasses in a row. He said, "I know why you're asking me out. The first time I noticed Shu Wan was when I was a sophomore in high school. The new students started in military training and stood in a military posture. A few of our boys passed by, and some of the boys whistled and said that there were beautiful girls. I just glanced at it so casually, and I saw Shu Wan. She's just too eye-catching in the crowd. He is tall, with fair skin and beautiful facial features. Actually, I've seen a lot of pretty girls. For example, Qian Bao, such as my girlfriend at that time. But she gave me a different feeling. She seemed to notice our commotion and glanced over to us. I knew she didn't have me in her eyes at all. There was even arrogance and disdain in her eyes. But my heart just beats faster. ”
He took a sip of wine, and his mouth was full of bitterness. He said: "I thought I was just a young man's fascination, so there was a chance to go abroad, and I left without hesitation." I thought that after all these years, I had let go of this woman. But that day at Qian Bao's house, my headlights shone on her face, and she looked at me with her hand blocking the light. I knew she couldn't see anything, but I noticed that my heart was beating faster again. ”
He smiled bitterly and said, "When I first returned to China, I heard Qian Bao talk about it, saying that she was still single. I was ecstatic. Who knew that she would already have someone in her eyes, and she couldn't tolerate me. That person is you. I even tried to pry off the corner of the wall in spite of my brotherhood. But she didn't give her a chance. I used to laugh at you, why do you miss a woman so much. In fact, at the same time, I was laughing at myself. I never thought that we would fall in love with the same woman. ”
Qi Tong was silent.
He originally wanted to question Shen Fangsheng. But now, he can't say anything.
Shen Fangsheng drank all the wine in his cup and said, "Don't look at me like this. There is only one Shu Wan, there are many people who love but can't get it, and there is no shortage of me. Yuan Kong's kid had been out of the house for her, and I asked myself if I couldn't do it. ”
He raised his wine glass, touched a glass with Qi Tong, and said, "There are not a few women who like us." But what to do? I only have feelings for her, do you say it's sad? ”
Qi Tong drank the wine in the cup, as if remembering something, and said, "Shu Wan has a cousin who looks exactly like her." ”
"And then?" Shen Fangsheng poured himself another glass of wine and said, "Shu Wan, there is only one." ”
As the night wore on, they were all drunk.
Qi Tong took out his mobile phone, called Shu Wan, and said, "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law." ”
"You're drunk and get off early." Shu Wan said helplessly.
"Daughter-in-law, I love you!" Qi Tong said loudly.
"Hmm."
"Shu Wan, I love you!" Qi Tong said loudly.
Shu Wan was about to say "um", when he heard Shen Fangsheng's voice on the other end of the phone: "Shu Wan, I love you too." ”
The phone hung up.
Shu Wan was speechless.
