Chapter 20 Don't hang yourself from a tree
Zhu Shan hung up the phone, looked at her beautiful face in the mirror, and sighed.
It turns out that it doesn't feel good to be crushed.
Especially this kind of super long crush for her not to think about anyone around her.
Inexplicably, it made her feel indebted.
And after the misunderstanding was resolved, Zhu Shan added a touch to Ling Xiao... Commiseration.
Zhu Shan was immersed in this uncomfortable feeling, picked up her mobile phone and opened the bathroom door, and before she could take two steps, she heard the sound of the combination lock.
Her heart was pounding, but her feet couldn't be controlled, and her head was a mess.
Ling Xiao pushed open the door, glanced at her, and frowned slightly.
Then he laughed and stood in the hallway to change his shoes: "Are you really waiting for me?" ”
How can you wait?
Zhu Shan lowered her head in embarrassment, remembering Ling Yue's advice in her head: enlighten him.
But!
How to enlighten!
She has no experience!
It's like a propositional essay, with the word 'enlightenment' as the title, and the donkey skills are exhausted, and he can't write anymore.
Ling Xiao had already changed his shoes, strode over and stood half a step away in front of Zhu Shan, frozen.
He stared at her carefully, then reached out and flicked her head: "Stupid? ”
Zhu Shan seemed to have been relieved, rubbing her head and taking two steps back.
She can't exude charm anymore.
Zhu Shan lowered her eyes and looked at the smooth ground: "I didn't wait for you, I came out to go to the toilet." ”
"That's a coincidence." Ling Xiao walked to the sofa and teased in a mocking tone, "Since it's such a coincidence, let's talk about it?" ”
???
Zhu Shan raised her eyes and saw Ling Xiao sitting lazily on the sofa.
There was no light in the living room, only a faint light in the hallway.
Half of his body was in the dark, but Zhu Shan no longer found him scary as before.
Instead, slowly, I saw two words popping out of his head.
- Pathetic.
It's really pitiful, because he has a crush on her, but she says she doesn't treat him as a man.
It's not a man's self-esteem, it's his broken heart.
It was she who said the wrong thing, which made him uncomfortable.
Zhu Shan is generally a person who knows his mistakes and corrects them.
She slackened her shoulders and walked over, slowly crouching down, her eyes fixed on the back of his hand.
Comforting words, Reason holds hands and speaks.
But she couldn't give him fantasies.
Zhu Shan sighed, then patted his arm like an elder, with big eyes sincerely: "Ling Xiao, I can't take what I said seriously, I used to be careful and ignorant, so I said bad things about you outside, it's my problem, I won't in the future, please believe me." ”
With that, she stood up, took two steps, and turned back.
I saw him frowning slightly.
Zhu Shan was entangled in her heart and shook her head: "Go to bed early, don't think too much." ”
Ling Xiao rubbed her eyebrows when she saw her close the door of the room, and said speechlessly, "How much did you drink?" ”
......
The next day, Zhu Shan's mobile phone alarm went off 20 minutes earlier than usual.
She didn't want to give Ling Xiao unnecessary illusions, so the first step was to keep her distance from him.
- no more hitchhiking to work.
But she had insomnia late last night, and now her eyes are swollen and astringent, and she really can't open them.
Let's sleep for another twenty minutes.
She gave up this idea, not because she didn't have a heart, but because her physical condition didn't allow it.
Twenty minutes later, Zhu Shan had to open her eyes.
She grabbed her phone and looked at it, and it seemed that she was not the only one who had insomnia.
Ling Yue sent several WeChat messages in the middle of the night.
Ling Yue: [Don't tell anyone this secret again, otherwise he may collapse his mentality]
Ling Yue: [Although it's difficult for you, but you are still more considerate and considerate of him, I guess he has a bad temper and has nothing to do with this matter]
Ling Yue: [After all, he forbears alone, and he can't share his thoughts with anyone]
Ling Yue: [He is now a vulnerable group]
Ling Yue: [Please, please]
Ling Yue not only played the emotional card, but also bribed her and gave out several red envelopes.
Zhu Shan confiscated and replied with a very conscientious type.
Zhu Shan: [Don't worry, the previous incident is over]
Zhu Shan: [From today on, no matter what happens in the end, we will always be a family]
Then, she posted a "cheer-up" meme.
Zhu Shan got up and walked to the window and opened the curtains.
Last night's rain gave the morning air a sense of transparency that penetrated people's hearts.
Zhu Shan stretched her waist: "It's another beautiful day." ”
When she went to wash, she saw that Ling Xiao was already sitting at the dining table, with some food in front of her.
His phone was covered in a black case, framed by his long fingers, and it looked so small, and now it was being held up by him close to his mouth.
He spoke lightly, sounding like he was dealing with the affairs of the law firm.
But Zhu Shan noticed that although Ling Xiao was dealing with things, from the moment she went out, his eyes moved with her.
I didn't even blink my eyes.
The roots of her ears were a little red, and she withdrew her gaze and trotted into the bathroom.
After closing the door quickly, Zhu Shan leaned against the door and held her heart and panted slightly.
Then, she frowned and cheered herself up: "Zhu Shan, you can do it." ”
After washing, Zhu Shan sat calmly at the dining table.
Ling Xiao sat opposite, holding a cup in one hand and swiping on his phone with the other.
His hair was a little long, and the broken bangs on his forehead covered some of his eyebrows at the moment, making him look much warmer.
Toast and fried eggs were placed in the center of the table, and a small cup of soy milk was placed near her place.
It was he who prepared it.
It's what she's going to drink.
Zhu Shan craned her neck and glanced at Ling Xiao's cup, which contained coffee.
A trace of guilt instantly added to her heart.
She was blind before, and she didn't see his thoughtfulness and dedication.
Watching the hot air curling up from the soy milk in the cup, the tip of the nose rushed into its sweet breath.
Zhu Shan clearly realized that it was necessary to cut off Ling Xiao's thoughts in order to reduce his pain.
As for how to cut it, there is no way to do it if she is beautiful.
Then you can only have a bad temper, be a little bit, and be a bad woman.
Making up her mind, Zhu Shan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and pushed the cup forward: "I don't want to drink soy milk." ”
Sure enough, Ling Xiao on the opposite side was stunned, and in the next second, he took his eyes off the phone and smashed it directly into her face.
After looking at her for two seconds, he whispered, "You didn't wake up?" ”
Zhu Shan subconsciously shrunk her neck, because she felt that his tone was full of threat, as if she dared to respond, she could immediately break her neck.
But she knew that this time was different, so she straightened her waist.
Zhu Shan glanced at the fruit cereal in the rabbit-shaped storage basket next to her: "I want to eat cereal." ”
Ling Xiao tilted his head and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you unconvinced by my call for a month?" ”
Zhu Shan ignored him, tilted her head to the side with her hands, and said, "Then I won't eat it." ”
Ling Xiao: "......"
There was a stalemate for about five seconds.
Zhu Shan saw Ling Xiao raise his hand and grab a large cup, then took the cereal bag in the rabbit storage basket, opened it, poured it in, and then poured the soy milk into the cup.
He did this series of movements without taking his eyes off her cheek for a second.
She knows it all.
And I felt that his eyes were hot.
It wasn't until Ling Xiao put the big cup in front of Zhu Shan a little heavily that she couldn't help but tremble.
When Zhu Shan was stunned, Ling Xiao's fingers tapped on the table, and he gritted his back molars: "Eat." ”
Zhu Shan turned around and scooped spoonfuls into her mouth.
With half a cup of oats in her stomach, she reached out and took two slices of toast, sandwiched an omelette, and then meditated hard before dying again: "I want to eat steamed buns tomorrow." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ling Xiao snorted directly, his tone was slow and dangerous: "You want to be beaten!" ”
Zhu Shan was not afraid at all, and even recalled in his head that he had indeed never beaten her since he was a child.
Before, she thought that she was too cowardly, and she would give in as soon as he said cruel words, but now, she understands that it is impossible for him to be willing to beat herself.
So, Zhu Shan added: "Sauce meat bun." ”
After saying that, bury your head and munch on cereal.
Ling Xiao: "......"
didn't hear him speak, Zhu Shan cautiously raised her eyes, and saw that he had already put his attention back on the phone, and her heart was churning helplessly.
What should she do with Ling Xiao?
There was some traffic jam on the way to work, especially at the intersection after getting off the elevated road.
Some people grab red lights, and some cars grab lanes.
The sound of the horn is really harsh.
Zhu Shan leaned against the car window with a worried expression, and suddenly her eyebrows jumped, and an idea popped up in her heart.
The location of Lingxiao's company can obviously go down to the next intersection and then go down the elevated highway, so that the traffic jam time will be much less.
But he didn't.
Because to send her.
So, not by the way.
He sent her on purpose.
Zhu Shan looked sideways at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao tilted his head slightly, and his jawline was hard and clear.
He rested his left hand on the edge of the window, and his right hand grasped the steering wheel, his posture was loose, but he controlled the car very well.
At such a complicated crossroads, there was no impatience on the face.
After understanding his intentions, Zhu Shan bit her lip and thought about it.
Then he raised his hand and pointed to the intersection: "Ling Xiao, look, how beautiful that beauty looks." ”
Ling Xiao glanced at it and immediately retracted his gaze.
Zhu Shan saw that he was interested, so he pointed to another: "What about that?" It feels super good. ”
This time he didn't even look at it.
Zhu Shan lowered her eyes and rubbed her fingers on the strawberry on the phone case: "I read a book last night, the book said that the world is very big, you have to look at it, and if you have a wide field of vision, you won't limit your choice to one place, I mean, people can't hang themselves on a tree." ”
Ling Xiao snorted with a smile: "I don't sleep at night, I drink chicken soup?" ”
What not to sleep?
What chicken soup?
Ling Xiao looked sideways, and the corners of his mouth were smiling: "Sleep more!" Otherwise, you will be caught back to the panda base. ”
???
Oh, chicken soup for the soul.
After Zhu Shan understood his words, she opened the small mirror on the visor on the car, touched her eyes with her fingertips, and indeed had some dark circles under her eyes.
She sighed.
Ling Xiao doesn't look at any beauty, her heart is all on her.
Zhu Shan could only divert the topic: "Ling Xiao, let's listen to the song." ”
Without waiting for Ling Xiao to speak, Zhu Shan had already ordered the music.
Immediately, a cheerful song came from the stereo, which made people want to twist their bodies along with it.
"O lonely people"
"Do you want to go home at night?"
"Those souls have long since nowhere to rest and wander to the ends of the earth"
"Those Silent Answers"
"Tears Fall Drops"
“......”
This song is too sad for the crush, and Zhu Shan quickly clicked the next song.
"How far is it to get into your heart"
"How long will it take to get closer to you"
"The man who is close but can't get close"
“......”
Zhu Shan continued to the next song.
"I really love you"
"No one compares"
"I'm so determined"
"You don't even have to"
“......”
Zhu Shan took care of Ling Xiao's emotions, turned off the music directly, and then sighed deeply: "How can you listen to these songs?" ”
Ling Xiao tilted his head: "This is a replay of the playlist from the last time." ”
"Huh?"
Seeing her confused, Ling Xiao sighed: "Your song list." ”
Zhu Shan felt uncomfortable, turned around and leaned on the window.
Ling Xiao means that she is the only one by his side, and she is the only one in the passenger seat.
Zhu Shan: "......"
Crying.
