Chapter 8: Rites of Passage
Until Huang Wanwan's eighteenth birthday, none of them mentioned that drunk night again, Lan Xingchen was not sure if she was awake that day, and she remembered saying that she liked him. Huang Wanwan wasn't sure who kissed whom that day, was it because she forcibly kissed him that he alienated her? But Lan Xingchen told Huang Wanwan that he was going to accompany her for her eighteenth birthday, and also prepared a special coming-of-age ceremony for her, she was looking forward to this day, but she was also afraid of this day, because this day was the last day he agreed to take care of her.
Lan Xingchen was very busy with work this day, and suddenly there was a lot of inexplicable work, he understood that this was arranged for him by Director Jiang, and he could only obey silently, but it was Director Jiang who stayed at Huang Wanwan's house all day, just like staring at his daughter who wanted to elope with someone, staring at Huang Wanwan until he blew out the birthday candle, Lan Xingchen did not appear, Director Jiang was very satisfied, but Huang Wanwan was very sad and went back to sleep early. Director Jiang also left with peace of mind.
After Lan Xingchen desperately completed all the work, he was about to go home, when he suddenly received a call from Meng Jie:
"Still working overtime?"
"Just about to go home."
"Go back quickly, and comfort Wanwan, she's not been in a good mood lately. It seems to have fallen out of love. ”
"Hmph~" Lan Xingchen sneered proudly, thinking: Her girlfriends have already been cleaned up by me, where did she fall out of love?
"By the way, I also gave her a coming-of-age gift, don't thank me~"
When Lan Xingchen came home, the whole family had already fallen asleep, he sighed, returned to his room, he took a bath silently, lay on the bed in a daze, and said to himself: "Wanwan, are you already asleep?" Then he received a WeChat message: "No! "It was sent by Wanwan. He sat up excitedly, Wanwan's room was separated from him by a wall, presumably she heard it, and he asked the wall, "Wanwan, may I go to your room?" "Brother Xingchen, I've been waiting for you!" Wanwan replied with a voice, and her voice was very sweet.
Lan Xingchen quietly slipped into Huang Wanwan's room, and the moment he saw her, he was stunned, Wanwan wore a bandeau dress, cut slim, and set off her good figure and fair skin, she also put on makeup, faint, but extremely dazzling.
There was only a vague table lamp in the room, the light was dim, Wanwan went against the light, and walked towards the blue star, like a fairy, but also like a fox, the light was in a trance, and he was also in a trance.
"Brother Xingchen, am I so good-looking?"
"It's so beautiful!"
"Brother Xingchen I like you, do you like me?"
"I like it!"
It was as if he had been stripped of his soul, and he could only answer the truest thoughts.
Huang Wanwan's face was happy, and then asked: "Then, I was drunk that day, are we... Pick up... Woo~"
Lan Xingchen had already picked up her face and kissed her emotionally, she also responded enthusiastically, her hand was around his waist, he was very sensitive, he was as excited as if he had been electrified, his hands began to roam over her body, he forgot how to press her to the bed and tore her clothes, until he kissed her breasts and she began to resist, he regained some senses, Lan Xingchen said humbly and covered her with a quilt
"Don't dress like this in front of men and say such things in the future"
"Hmm"
"I scared you, didn't I?"
“…”
"Are you alright?"
"Weak legs"
“…… Don't say that either! ”
Back in his room, Lan Xingchen began to call and question Meng Jie:
"You gave me the clothes?"
"Well, the coming-of-age ceremony, pick it in the style you like."
"You taught you the confession?"
"She confessed?"
"Answer the question!"
"Well, I'm just encouraging her to show her heart."
"You also taught me to touch me?"
"Touch! Which! Village? Meng Jie raised his voice tenfold.
"You're quiet, you're good at hearing, I mean lumbar fossa!"
"Do you have a lumbar socket? Can't you touch it? ”
"It seems that she has no teacher." Meng Jie, you are a beast! How old is she, you don't teach her well! ”
"What's wrong with me, I see she hasn't worn a skirt for so many years, what's wrong with me giving her one? Isn't it pretty? ”
"It's good, but it's not good..."
“… Quality... Measure...? Without waiting for Meng Jie to scream, Lan Xingchen knew that he had missed his mouth, so he quickly hung up the phone, but Meng Jie called indiscriminately:
"Lan Xingchen, you beast, big beast, she is just 18, you can't hold it back! It's still in someone's house! Under the noses of other people's families! How come I didn't find you like a beast before! ”
"It's not what you think, don't talk nonsense... We don't have anything...", Lan Xingchen defended weakly.
Lan Xingchen did not regret exposing his feelings, he had already made up his mind, no longer forbearance, he no longer thought about Director Jiang's words, he planned to take her out of here when she graduated from college, find a remote place to live, let go of everything, don't care about justice and evil, don't care about the competition between drug dealers, the Aoba Group, and the police, he just wants to be with her, even if they are caught in the end and don't end well, he wants to love her vigorously at the moment.
However, fate is so unfair, it will attack and suppress you from all angles and dimensions, so that you have nowhere to hide, it does not allow you to have any retreat and greed, the only thing left for you is the most bumpy, the most thorny, the most helpless, the ugliest road. This is the sad feeling after Lan Xingchen decided to let go of everything, and received a call from Director Jiang and Ye Yu.
Lan Xingchen fell on the bed, feeling a sense of powerlessness that he had never felt before swept through his body, and a WeChat message made him even more at a loss, she said that she was right outside his door, she said that she had something to say, if he was given a night of time, he could still think about how to face her and give her a breakup that hurt the least, although they hadn't officially started yet, but what should I do now? Another WeChat message, still Wanwan, she said that she just heard him seem to be on the phone, and knew that he must not have slept, and she had something to say today. Lan Xingchen realized what it means to be in a dilemma, what it means to be exhausted, and what it means that life is better than death.
The door slowly opened, Huang Wanwan quickly slipped into the house, she hugged Lan Xingchen from behind and said, "Just now... I'm sorry, I... I'm not ready~ I'm now... I..."
"It's okay, it's me who has a sperm worm in the brain, a scumbag, and recognizes you as someone else, I'm sorry, you forgot, but you shouldn't be a person who can't afford to play."
"Someone else?"
"Yes, my ex-girlfriend, Ye Yu."
"You still love her?"
"Love her all the time! I'll move out tomorrow anyway, so we won't be embarrassed if we don't see each other. ”
"Brother Xingchen, you... Don't go okay, didn't you say you like me, as long as you don't go, I... I'm willing to do anything. Saying that, Huang Wanwan hugged Lan Xingchen again.
"Hehe, no need, just... On the phone... Ye Yu has already helped me solve my needs, she is indeed more feminine than you tomboy, we used to be very harmonious in bed, and even more so just now. Lan Xingchen said with a look of enjoyment.
Huang Wanwan was stunned, she was still digesting the meaning of his words.
"Let's get it straight! During the time that Ye Yu was away, out of freshness, I did like you a little, but... You... After all, I like women, I really can't fall in love with you, I still love Ye Yu more, Ye Yu will be back soon, I don't want to delay you anymore, let's break up and be okay. ”
Huang Wanwan was still standing there stunned, but the tears were already flowing down, she didn't understand, what happened to her Xingchen brother, was this the coming-of-age gift he gave her? When you become an adult, does it have to be accompanied by lies and betrayal, and does it have to be accompanied by pain and heartbreak?
Lan Xingchen looked at her, he couldn't control himself, he wanted to wipe away her tears, and held the urge to tell her the truth. He quickly packed some of his belongings, threw down a goodbye, and planned to flee from here quickly. Before going out, he hesitated, stuffed a letter and a gift box into her hands, and said to her: "The letter is some things you want to know, you must not give up your ideals, your life." He pointed to the gift box and said, "This coming-of-age gift is what I promised you, take it!" If you don't like it, you can throw it away! Then he left without looking back.
In the early morning, the sun shone into Lan Xingchen's house, the house was the same as before, as if nothing had happened, however, her Xingchen brother was gone and would never come back, Huang Wanwan sat on the ground, holding the unopened letter and gift box, still shedding tears, she thought about it all night: people say that once the 18th birthday is over, although she is legally an adult, there is no change in her heart, and growing up overnight is just a legend, but she feels as if she has entered a legend.
Lan Xingchen returned to his original home, the home was so cold that a person like him, who had never caught a cold, was also sick, he called to ask for leave, and Director Jiang approved it without asking anything. One day, two days, until the third day, Lan Xingchen still didn't come to work, Director Jiang came directly to his house to find him, he thought that Lan Xingchen would be sick, or drunk, but he didn't expect it to be not, he just sat quietly, sat very quietly, his expression was not painful but a little aggrieved, not decadent but a little numb, he just sat very quietly, the house was very clean, he was also very clean, he didn't smash things, he didn't hurt himself, he just sat very quietly. Director Jiang was very distressed, he didn't respond to anything he said, he was in a hurry, and wanted to call Lan Yunhai, but at this moment, Lan Xingchen spoke:
"Uncle Jiang, do you remember what I was doing when I was 18 years old?"
"You like... Studying? Or... Playing games? Again... Or you... New to Ye Yu? Jiang Jianguo stumbled and replied.
"Uncle Jiang, I have only one request, you promise me, I will listen to you in the future."
"You say!"
"Let Wanwan live a little more freely, be happy, she will learn if she is willing to learn, have fun if she wants to have fun, and fall in love if she is willing to fall in love?"
"Okay!" Jiang Jianguo was also a little choked.
"However, you still have to check the matter of love, she has a bad vision and always sees the wrong person, why don't you introduce a few to her directly, men and women, just don't lie to her again."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
