Chapter 90: Overnight
Chen Dan was silent for a while on the mobile phone, and said, "That's ...... Aren't you leaving tomorrow? ”
I said, "If Liu Hui can come tomorrow, I will have to stay with him for one more day." If you don't want to see him, then I'll rush back tomorrow to meet him in City B. ”
"Come on, what are you afraid of when you meet? By the way, I forgot to ask you just now, you don't have an ID card, where do you stay at night? ”
I was stunned when I heard it, wasn't it? My ID card is still being reissued, what can I do if I don't have an ID card in a hotel?
I had to vaguely say, "This...... Besides, I'm a big man, where can't I sleep? Chen Dan, if you want to talk to him, then I can call him to come. “
"Just fight, Tang Qian, if you don't have an ID card, you will definitely not be able to live in the hotel. Can't you sleep on the street at night? If...... If you don't dislike it, the sofa at home can be made up. ”
I suddenly had an idea and smiled, "How can I do that?" You're a single woman, and people will gossip when I live in your house. But this matter is not difficult to solve, just please come out again, and use your ID card to help me open a room? ”
“…… Don't you believe me? It's just one night, why spend that unjust money? I know, you must not believe me, afraid that I will pester you, right? ”
I stopped, and in my mind, I really didn't have that thought. I believe in Chen Dan, I know that she is the kind of great woman who is very self-sacrificing. Since she said that she was just my friend, she would never go beyond the thunder pool. If I refuse her invitation, I'm afraid I'll make her think I'm guarding her and not seeing her as a friend.
However, I live with a man and a single woman, and I always feel that it is not good. I hesitated to use what method I could use to be more tactful, but I heard her sigh softly, and said, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you." Where are you? I'm going to come out to you. ”
Hearing that Chen Dan was so understanding, my face turned red. Secretly scolding himself for being too villainous, others are not afraid of any inconvenience with a female surname, so honest to me, I am a big man, is it not as broad-minded as a woman?
I hurriedly said, "Chen Dan, don't come out, I'll come over." We're good friends, can I not believe you? Tonight, I'll sleep on your couch. ”
"Really? That...... You're not afraid that people will gossip? ”
"Hehe, you're not afraid of a woman, what am I afraid of as a man?"
“…… Sample! Come here! ”
I turned around and walked towards the campus again, and at the same time called Liu Hui again. Liu Hui was very excited, and kept saying that he would fly to see us early tomorrow morning.
I smiled and said that it was me or Chen Dan who I wanted to see in the end? Ya's Liu Hui was cheeky and said unashamedly, of course it was Chen Dan, and I was so angry that I laughed and scolded again.
While chatting with Liu Hui, I walked into the campus. During the conversation, I felt that after many years, Liu Hui was no longer the shy and introverted Liu Hui of the past. Now he is slick and sophisticated, and he has a thick face, maybe ...... When a person grows up and matures, years of social mixing have completely changed him, right?
When I arrived at Chen Dan's house, I ended the call and knocked on the door. The door soon opened, and Chen Dan welcomed me in with a smile on his face, and said, "The sofa has been sorted out for you, and the quilt is also new, if you are not used to sleeping, then we can change it, and I can sleep on the sofa." ”
I laughed and said, "What's so embarrassing?" I'm grateful that you can contain me, and if I take your bed again, won't I be anti-guest? ”
Chen Dan said: "Aren't we friends? Then you are still polite to me? Sit down, I'll see if the coffee is ready. ”
I smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Dan, do you have anything else at home?" The coffee is as bitter as Chinese medicine, and I really can't get used to it. ”
Chen Dan wanted to laugh when he heard this, so he glanced back at me and said, "Look at your little bit of interest, I am reluctant to take out this coffee if it is exchanged for someone else." If you don't like to drink it, it's only plain water. ”
I sat down on the couch and said, "Then boiled water, thank you!" ”
Chen Dan had no choice but to pour me a cup of boiled water, then held a cup of coffee himself, sat in front of me, and began to chat with me.
"How is Liu Hui now? Did he say why he didn't contact you? ”
"No, he seemed a little hard to talk about, I don't know why. Alas, I'll wait until he comes. But he said that now that he has a girlfriend, you don't have to worry about him coming to see you and trying to pester you. ”
Chen Dan smiled faintly and said: "Liu Hui, I can't beat a stuffy fart with three sticks, so I'm not worried." ”
I said: "It's different, I feel that Liu Hui has changed a lot, and he is just two people before." You have to be mentally prepared! ”
"Oh? What has become of him now? ”
"I can't say it, anyway, when I talk to him, he is much more articulate, how can he refuse to speak in front of you before?"
Chen Dan's face was a little red, he lifted his glasses, and said, "He's doing business now, how can a businessman be a businessman who is not articulate?" After all these years, haven't you changed too? ”
I took a sip of water and said, "Really? What has become of me? ”
Chen Dan lowered his head, and said for a long time: "From a living Lei Feng, he has become a great love saint, isn't it?" ”
I had to touch my nose and couldn't speak for a long time.
Chen Dan didn't speak anymore, just took a sip of coffee. After a while, she put down the cup and said softly, "I'm going to sleep, you should also wash and sleep early." If there's anything you find inconvenient, just call me. ”
With that, she stood up, turned and walked into the bedroom.
I know that although Chen Dan has regarded me as a friend, his affection for me has not changed. The way I am now, must have disappointed her?
I sighed, turned off the lights, removed my shoes and socks, and lay down on the sofa. I didn't touch the new quilt on the edge of the couch, and I just lay down in my clothes until ...... Fall asleep......
I don't know how long it took, but I just felt a warmth on my body, as if something was covering me. My consciousness came back and I felt the lights come back on. But I didn't open my eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.
I knew that Chen Dan must have gotten up in the middle of the night to check on me, and when he saw that I didn't have a quilt, he helped me cover it. I was grateful, but I didn't know what to say to her, so I had to pretend I didn't know.
But after Chen Dan covered me with the quilt, I didn't hear her leaving, and she seemed to be still in front of me. One minute...... Two minutes...... Ten minutes......
I finally couldn't help but open my eyes strangely, only to see Chen Dan squatting in front of the sofa, holding his chin with his hands, his eyes obsessive, staring at me in a daze. I said, "Chen Dan, what's wrong?" ”
Chen Dan was startled, his face quickly swelled red, he hurriedly stood up, and said in a panic: "No...... No, I'll cover you with a quilt, now it's okay, I'm ...... I'm going to sleep! Saying that, he turned around in a hurry, rushed into the bedroom without a head, and slammed the door shut.
I sat up and looked at the door of Chen Dan's bedroom, and I didn't know what it was like. I understand the pain in her heart, and she loves me to death, but she desperately pretends to be indifferent. It is only when I am casual that she reveals her true feelings in her heart.
I was also very sad in my heart, and I knew that I had been deeply touched by her. If there were no Xu Shu and Jingjing, then what else was there to consider, just rush over and hug her. If such a good woman doesn't love, then what woman is better than her?
It's just that...... Reality is always reality, and I can only regret that I have no fate with her. I met her so early, but we didn't communicate until the end. We are destined to never be together.
That night, I didn't sleep again, and there were a lot of things in my head. I thought of my women, Xu Shu's goodness, Jingjing's bitterness, and the little witch's infatuation. There are other women who love me, Xie Qin's pity, Fan Yunting's sorrow, and Chen Dan's greatness.
I feel like I'm really hesitant, so many emotional debts are weighing on my head, and I really can't bear it. If only I were a playboy, at least I could love each and every one of them and try to make every woman happy. It's a pity that I'm an extremely emotionally cowardly man. Always look forward and backward, afraid of this and that. Although I claim to be emotionally single-minded, I always have pity for all women. I'm afraid of hurting this, and I'm afraid of hurting that. Later, I was in pain, and so were they. If it weren't for Xu Shu's connivance and Jingjing's tolerance, how could I be where I am today? It's been despised for a long time, right?
In self-pity, before I knew it, the sky was dawning. I yawned, and then I felt sleepy, and I wanted to fall asleep for a while, but it was dawn, and I was in someone else's house, how could I be embarrassed to sleep lazy?
In desperation, I had to put back my shoes and socks, fold the quilt, and then go to the bathroom, ready to wash my face with my hands. As soon as I turned on the water tap, I took a handful of water with my palms together, and Chen Dan also walked in with a yawn.
When she saw me, she said, "Got up so early?" ”
I said "um", leaned down, and washed my face with water. Chen Dan sighed and said, "How do you wash it with your hands?" You wait. As she spoke, she took a towel from the shelf and handed it to me, then brought a tooth brushing tool, and said, "Use mine, a big man, you have to pay attention to personal hygiene." ”
I said, "Are these for you?" That's not good, what do you use if I use it? ”
Chen Dan smiled: "If you are pedantic, you are really pedantic, are you afraid that I have an infectious disease or that you yourself are sick?" You can't use it after I wash it? ”
My face was hot, so I had to take it and brush my teeth first. At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the door, Chen Dan was stunned for a moment, and went out from the bathroom and said, "Who?" ”
"Teacher Chen, I'm Xu Xin!"
At this time, Chen Dan and I looked at each other, both panicked. At the same time, I thought in my heart: "Xu Xin (little witch) came to knock on the door so early, was she discovered?" ”
Chen Dan calmed down first, gave me a slightly calm expression, and then said, "Classmate Xu Xin, is there anything wrong with coming to the teacher so early?" ”
The little witch outside the door said, "Teacher Chen, I have missed two classes in the past two days, so I want to borrow your preparation materials to take a look at it, and take advantage of this time in the morning to preview it." Otherwise, I won't be able to keep up with today's lesson. ”
Chen Dan said: "That's it? Then you wait a minute, I'll get it for you. With that, she quickly ran to the sofa, picked up the quilt, and moved into the bedroom and put it on the bed first. Then he ran to the study and found the handouts for preparing for the class, and came out and whispered to me, "Just stay in the bathroom, don't make a sound!" ”
With that, she closed the bathroom door and locked me inside.
Pity my mouth full of toothpaste foam, where do you dare to make a little noise? He cried out in his heart: "This little witch elf is weird, and she has many ears and eyes in the school, so she won't hear anything?" Although Chen Dan and I are nothing, I am not afraid of shadows. But...... But the little witch is a standard unreasonable fellow, if she sees me washing my face and brushing my teeth here, as if I have just gotten up, I will ...... How do I explain that? ”
