Chapter 48 A liar shall swallow a thousand needles

Hearing the extremely hoarse voice coming from the microphone, the fries were stunned.

In his memory, what Xia Yun showed him was always so full of vitality, how could he ever be as weak as now......

"You...... What happened to you? French fries asked subconsciously, but his heart couldn't help but hang high.

"It's nothing ......" Xia Yun's words revealed a coldness, as well as a hint of stubbornness.

On the other end of the microphone, she was obviously trying her best to suppress her weakness, and said this sentence lightly in a tone as calm as possible.

"You've got a cold!"

No matter how big the nerves are, the fries can detect Xia Yun's abnormality at this time.

This also made him a little anxious, "Where are you now?" Work or home? How careless! ”

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

He was greeted by two extremely muffled coughs.

In order not to let the fries notice anything unusual, Xia Yun even coughed, and tried his best to cover it.

But...... This is somewhat of a cover-up.

The french fries' heart began to become more and more impatient, and for some reason, he only felt a kind of resentment and powerlessness at this time.

Although he doesn't know why this is happening.

"Are you at home? What...... Just catch a cold? ”

waited for a long time, but didn't wait for Xia Yun's response.

In the microphone, only a slightly heavy wheezing sound remained, which kept echoing in his ears.

The fries were a little stunned.

He couldn't help but think of the sudden heavy rain last night...... He seemed to see a depressed woman, drenched in heavy rain, walking distractedly on the brightly lit street of Wangjing.

He shook his head, dispelled the unwarranted conjecture in his mind, and asked in a soft voice, "You were raining yesterday?" ”

I don't know why, he is a little weak for no reason, and even his mouth seems to be starting to be unfavorable.

"No......," Xia Yun replied weakly.

"If not, how can you catch a cold today! Obviously yesterday was fine! ”

The fries inexplicably felt a little unhappy in their hearts, and even the sound couldn't help but be a little louder.

"I said no, no, no!" Before his words fell, Xia Yun's mournful roar sounded instantly, interrupting his follow-up nagging.

At this time, she was like a desperate little beast, lonely in a dark room, unable to find an exit.

French fries were stunned, she didn't know why Xia Yun's emotions exploded in an instant, and he didn't know what else he could say, so he could only continue to remain silent.

"I'm sorry!" After a long time, Xia Yun's weak apology came from the microphone.

She also seems to be aware of her gaffe.

"It's fine." The tone of the fries became more and more gentle, and he asked with concern, "What about the medicine, have you eaten it?" ”

"Hmm...... It's okay," Xia Yun replied, "I already ate it when I felt that my body was wrong." ”

"My throat is like this and I still say it's okay......" A wry smile appeared on the face of the fries, "It's so big, why don't you know how to take care of yourself?" ”

"People are really fine!" Xia Yun's words were still full of stubbornness.

"Good! Good! It's okay! It's okay! The fries smiled bitterly, "Then, may I ask Miss Xia Yun, is there anything else that can be done for you now?" ”

"Hmm......" After a moment of contemplation, Xia Yun asked cautiously, "Can you ...... Do you want to talk to me a little bit? ”

"A moment, a moment, you can ......," her voice grew softer, her words full of pleading.

The fries looked at the time, and before they knew it, it was almost noon, but when they thought of Xia Yun at this time, they couldn't say anything if they refused, "Hmm...... Did you have lunch then? ”

"Don't want to eat...... Nor hungry. As if he had unloaded the heavy burden in his heart, Xia Yun's tone became coquettish for no reason, inexplicably...... Somewhat cute.

"Why don't you order a porridge, in your current state, drink something warm and go in, it will be more comfortable." Fries suggested, "I'll give you some, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Everything...... It's up to you. Xia Yun no longer refused, but she felt a burst of sweetness in her heart.

Truth be told, she's pretty easy to satisfy sometimes, even if it's just a trivial concern.

She hated herself for being like this, and every time she just treated her a little better, she lost all her principles in an instant...... And the cruel words released earlier were also thrown out of the clouds at this moment.

Forgive...... Choose forgiveness.

There was no sound in the microphone for a moment.

"Hmm...... All right! ”

After a while, the sound of fries resounded in the microphone. Obviously, he should have cut out to order lunch for Xia Yun before.

"By the way, you were fine when I saw you last night, why did you get drenched in the rain?" Fries asked curiously.

"It's nothing, it's just careless." Xia Yun pretended to be relaxed and replied, as if she didn't want to continue the topic.

"Just like I forgot...... Isn't it possible? She said silently in her heart.

"I'm really going to pay attention to it in the future...... I can't stay by your side and take care of you all the time, I'm so old, I really have to learn to take care of myself. ”

"You can......" Xia Yun thought in a broken way.

"What did you say?" Xia Yun's voice was so soft that the fries couldn't be heard clearly.

"I said I knew." Xia Yun hurriedly said.

Although she knew that the fries were most likely polite, this kind of worthless care still made her feel extremely satisfied.

"That's right!"

As if thinking of something, the fries asked, "When did you leave last night?" ”

"I'm really sorry, Xiao Er suddenly left me behind when I got off work, and asked me to work overtime to catch up with a PPT, and then the phone happened to be out of battery, and I found out later."

These words of the french fries seem to be more like a temptation than an inquiry.

Although he already had his own judgment in his heart, he still wanted to hear Xia Yun's answer with his own ears.

"Hmm...... I waited for a while, and when I saw that you didn't show up, I thought something was wrong with you, and I left. ”

In Xia Yun's opinion, the words of the fries are full of loopholes, but Xia Yun would rather not hear it and choose to believe it.

It's like an ostrich buried in the sand.

From her words, you can't feel the slightest emotion, to put it mildly, as if she was saying something insignificant.

"It's also ......"

The fries couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the boulder in his heart was completely unloaded at this moment, "I said, when I came down, why didn't I see you at Starbucks." ”

The devil sent the gods, and the fries opened their mouths and panicked, not so much to explain...... It's more like trying to cover it up.

"Hmm......" Xia Yun replied, and then fell silent again.

"That's why you didn't see me......"

"Hmm!" The fries subconsciously responded

The two fell silent again, and the topic at hand seemed to be unable to continue.

"Okay, I'm a little tired too, you go get busy, don't worry about me......"

Xia Yun's words were still as indifferent as ever, but they made the fries feel relieved.

Although the two of them seemed to be talking about something commonplace, he still felt a kind of depression that almost suffocated him.

"Then you remember to eat...... Rest well. "I'll see you when I'm off work." ”

"Hmm......" Xia Yun replied, and then hung up the phone.

Listening to the blind sound in the microphone, the fries couldn't help but lose their minds.

He's not used to it.

Every time the two talked, Xia Yun always used to wait for him to hang up first...... Unexpectedly, this time she took the initiative to hang up.

Of course, that doesn't mean anything...... But the fries are real, a little unaccustomed.

"Probably...... She was really tired. Fries shook his head, not thinking much about it.

But in his heart, he still began to relax for no reason...... At least, her cold wasn't caused by herself.

……

Xia Yun sat on the bed weakly, and her mobile phone was also weakly thrown aside.

The empty room, at this moment, the silence is a little terrible.

Before the curtains could be opened, there was only a small lamp in the whole room, emitting a faint light that illuminated her somewhat pale face.

In the mobile phone, a psychedelic male voice flows quietly...... It's Lin Youjia's "Lying".

Her eyes were hollow, and she sang softly with her singing.

After a long time, the song fell. Her eyes were still numb, and her mouth was saying, "A liar will swallow a thousand needles." ”

"I lied...... You're lying too......"

She lowered her head weakly, and the empty room kept echoing, her mournful cry.

……

The fries returned to his workstation with a blank face, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

The depressed mood made him feel like his whole body was about to explode...... This morning, why didn't it go well.

Whether it's work or life. Seeing that the lunch break was about to pass, he didn't even have time to eat.

He didn't mean to blame Xia Yun...... I just think it's a bit bad today.

Suddenly, his eyes froze...... Because in the corner of his table, there is a simple packed lunch box with a post-it note on it.

"No matter how busy you are, remember to eat!"

The fries were stunned...... I don't seem to have explained who helped me bring food, so what's the situation with this boxed lunch?

Raising his head blankly and looking around, everyone was busy with their own business and did not respond.

He carefully tore off the post-it note: it was a somewhat unfamiliar font, at least, he was still familiar with the words he had hurt his friends.

It's just that this huge editorial department may bring him food...... Don't!

The frowning brow of the fries instantly relaxed, and an endless smile appeared on his face - it was a strawberry!

He vaguely remembered that this somewhat cute font seemed to be the only strawberry font in the entire editorial department.

I didn't have time to open the lunch box, so I hurriedly took out my mobile phone, found Strawberry's WeChat, and carefully sent a message to the past.

"Is that you?"

He was a little nervous, rubbing his phone with both hands, a little bit of a loss.

"Hmm!"

"I haven't seen you all morning, I think you must be busy with work, and then, you didn't come back until noon, so I brought you a bento by and came back."

"You haven't had time to eat yet, have you?"

The caution in the words instantly made the whole person feel inexplicably excited

"Thank you!"

The fries didn't know what to reply to, and the pale words couldn't describe the excitement of his explosion at the moment.

"It's already cold, remember to warm it up before eating." Strawberry replied with concern, "Continue to work hard in the afternoon!" ”

Looking at the words sent by Strawberry, the fries felt an inexplicable sense of happiness begin to grow in the bottom of their hearts......

He felt that there seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two of them, although it seemed that last night was their first official contact, but this kind of rapid progress made his whole person want to explode with excitement.

He wanted to make a declaration to the world...... But I want to hide this happiness in my heart and cherish it privately.

He didn't understand what that feeling was...... Maybe it's a matter of course, maybe it's ...... Is this love?
