Chapter 3: An Opportunity
The summer night was unusually short, as if the lights of thousands of homes that had just dimmed were not long lit up by the thin light from the cracks in the reinforced concrete at the end of the city.
Su Jingqian didn't move her that night.
Because Li Niantian said that he would go to the troupe to rehearse the next day, he would be tired and have no energy.
At this time, Su Jingqian really tolerated her, even if she was on the bow, as long as she said a word, Su Jingqian really honestly hugged her from behind, did nothing, and fell asleep.
It took her a few hours to figure out her future.
Won't be a full-time housewife anymore, she's going to pursue her dreams.
Fuck a man, career is the only thing she can rely on!
As for Su Jingqian.
Li Niantian recovered from his high fighting spirit.
She remembered Su Jingqian's contemptuous and contemptuous eyes in the previous life, but in this life he was still lying in the crook of his arm, and behind him was his even breathing.
She didn't know why she had come back here, so she couldn't figure out for a moment whether it would be fair to let this person who didn't seem to have started doing evil to suffer the consequences of the previous life.
And fairness has always been one of the principles she pursues.
The fluffy under the bed suddenly turned over, twisted from lying on its side to four paws to the sky, revealing its pink belly, and fell into a deep sleep again.
Li Nian's attention suddenly fell on the velvet body, and his heart turned into a puddle of water by its stupid sleeping posture, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch its thick little paws.
Before he could touch it, he was grabbed by Su Jingqian from behind and pulled back.
"Don't touch it while you're sleeping."
Su Jingqian was actually a bit of a cleanliness fetish, and at the beginning, he couldn't accept the velvet into the bedroom, so he bought three or four kennels and put them all outside the bedroom. It even said that you can use a room as a fluffy kennel, but you can't enter the bedroom.
Li Nian poured in, saying that you don't let it in, you go out, I live in the master bedroom with Rongrong, you go to the second bedroom, I will spoil you when I have time.
Su Jingqian is not stupid, of course he knows that "having time" means not having time, so he can only compromise and drag one of the kennels into the corner of the bedroom.
The velvet of "entering the house" was very competitive, and it didn't take a few days to tame its male owner's cleanliness habits.
The general process is that the kennel did not move first, and he sneaked to the bed in the middle of the night to lie down, and when Su Jingqian got up in the morning the next day, he saw a dead dog sleeping on the side of the bed.
After Su Jingqian got used to it and would not forcibly push it away from the bedside, he didn't wait for the middle of the night, and lay on the side of the bed directly before turning off the lights when he went to bed. At this time, the kennel was still in that small corner, and in the face of Su Jingqian's occasional complaints, Velvet spit out his little pink tongue and said that Velvet was very well-behaved, and Velvet only slept on the floor.
After Su Jingqian no longer expressed his opinions, Velvet directly dragged the kennel to the bedside.
This is considered a successful uprising.
Although this black sesame glutinous rice ball's plan succeeded, Su Jingqian still retained his last bottom line, that is, he must not touch the dog during sleeping.
When you don't wash your hands after touching it, you turn your head and go back to sleep, and the germs will run to the sheets.
But the bottom line is such a thing, Su Jingqian is here at this time, it seems to be very easy to pick it up high and put it down gently.
Li Nian tilted his head and said to Su Jingqian, who was half-asleep and half-awake: "I want to touch." ”
"No."
The hand that grabbed her tighter, almost holding her in his arms.
Li Niantian stopped talking.
After being quiet for about a minute, Su Jingqian let go of her hand, a little helpless: "Touch, only this time." ”
Li Niantian grabbed the puppy's paw.
Velvet squinted and saw that it was Li Niantian, and handed his paw up again, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
When Li Niantian, who was a full-time wife at home in his previous life, was bored, he would open the short video software and watch some videos of cats and dogs.
It is said that Rong Rong is a second fool, before Rong Rong had an accident, Li Niantian always likes to look at those particularly smart dogs, will help the owner get the express, and will go out to buy vegetables.
Later, after the velvet had an accident, she would occasionally brush up on one or two videos. The couple in the video broke up, and after one party left with his luggage, the originally carefree dog squatted next to the sofa in the living room all day long, looked at the door, and stood up to greet him when he heard footsteps at the door, but when he saw that it was not the person who came in and would never come back, he lay back in and stared at the door intently.
At that time, she even thought, fortunately, Rong Rong has passed away, otherwise would she be sad to see the current situation between her and Su Jingqian?
Will he also wait for Su Jingqian to come back every day?
Thinking of this, the warm and stocky touch in the palm of her hand actually made her feel a little soft.
Calculate the time, this should be the time when Su Jingqian has just shown some signs of cheating.
"Don't let me catch you, Su Jingqian," as if he wanted to give an explanation to himself in the previous life, and also to himself at this time, Li Niantian seemed to have made a decision, "Otherwise, I will definitely let you be ruined." ”
When the morning light gradually rose, Li Niantian finally fell asleep.
The next morning, Li Niantian was woken up by Su Jingqian pinching his nose.
Li Niantian opened her eyes in a daze, and was touched by the dog's head coming in front of her, and then pulled the velvet away with one hand, and she saw Su Jingqian standing behind the velvet.
"Wake up and have breakfast." Su Jingqian put on an apron, smiled, and dropped a light kiss on her forehead, "I made the waffles you like to eat today, hurry up." ”
"Hmm." Li Nian responded, and sat up after a few seconds of soberness.
For the first three years of their life, she was still bed-dependent.
Because at that time, Li Niantian had just become the head of the dance troupe, in addition to practicing his own part every day, he also had to participate in the creation of new plays of the troupe, and the time was tight and the task was heavy, and he often arrived at the theater at six or seven o'clock in the morning to start warming up, and he could only go home at eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening to rest.
At this time, Su Jingqian's company was already on the right track, and his managers were full of talents, cooperating with each other in various departments, and he as the chairman of the board of directors, he really became the helmsman, no longer responsible for trivial matters, and had a lot of free time.
The housework fell on Su Jingqian.
Su Jingqian is also a person who is very good at life, and he changes his method every day to make out all kinds of delicacies, claiming that he must raise Li Niantian to gain weight and make up for the name that Li Niantian accompanied him in the wine bureau a few years ago.
So Li Niantian slowly developed the problem of lying in bed, and he went to Su Jingqian to make breakfast, and then came to call her. By the time she got up and freshened up, breakfast was at a palatable temperature.
While eating, Su Jingqian's mobile phone lit up.
Li Nian glanced at it and saw the green icon.
It's a WeChat message.
The name on it is, "Xiao Min".
Su Jingqian, who never looked at his mobile phone when he was eating with her, picked up his mobile phone after glancing at the lit up mobile phone screen for the first time and began to reply to the messages on the other side.
"Is there something urgent?" Li Nian scooped a spoonful of bird's nest, and after seeing Su Jingqian's slightly frowning brows, he asked as if he didn't care.
"Well, a student asked about the final paper." Su Jingqian didn't say much, put down his mobile phone and put a few chopsticks and side dishes in the small bowl in front of Li Niantian, "Try this, a new product from the supermarket at the entrance of the community." ”
"Isn't it a weekend?" Li Niantian paused with the spoon's hand, "Did I read it wrong?" ”
"No, but it won't take much time anyway, so I promised to help her take a look."
"Oh," Li Nian knew who the news was, but he didn't get to the bottom of it anymore, "You're just a part-time professor, but you're more enthusiastic than some full-time teachers." ”
After finishing speaking, he no longer looked at Su Jingqian's face.
She didn't want to look like she was being vexatious.
"What's wrong?" Su Jingqian seemed to sense that something was wrong, put down the phone, reached out and wanted to rub her head again, "Jealous?" ”
"No," Li Niantian avoided quietly, "I'm going to the troupe after dinner, you're busy." ”
"Okay, then I'll send you."
The troupe belongs to a public institution and has weekends off, so when Li Niantian came, the entire theater was black, and probably because of the rain today, not many people came to work overtime. Only the back practice room was lit up, and a few new young actors were silently practicing, and when they saw her coming, they politely greeted her.
So familiar.
It's so strange.
She remembers that in another five or six years, they will all be the leading dancers.
Five or six years after the last life, she no longer has a demeanor, and she can only sit in front of the computer screen and rub those light and graceful figures on the stage.
Don't even dare to go to a live show.
That's when she realized that everything can fail you, but time and hard work won't.
And pinning everything on one person is really a big gamble.
In her last life, she understood this truth too late.
She was immersed in the darkness of the theater and sat in a familiar seat for a long time before she stood up and slowly walked to the front of the stage, stroking the edge of the stage that was a little dusty.
In a beam of silver light, she lifted a piece of yarn that had been left behind on the stage, wrapped it around her body, and tentatively stretched her limbs.
Captivity, struggle.
It is a butterfly trapped in a cocoon and cannot come out.
I'm exhausted after the dance.
A few applause were heard in the darkness, and someone slowly walked towards the stage.
