Chapter 15: The Good Medicine Deceives

On Wednesday, I got up early in the morning and stood at the door of the company half an hour early, without opening the door, waiting for Xiaoyoukai.

She came and looked at me a little strangely.

"Did you forget your key?"

"Nope."

"Then why don't you open the door and stand here stupidly?"

"Hmmm! My brain is a little watery, so I'm stupid to stand here. ”

She was a little confused, and just instinctively took out the key. Still a little scrambled to open the door, I looked at her side face, still in my heart.

I followed her in, picked up the tea set I should wash, and walked down the familiar hallway, where she came!

"Be careful, don't rush." I tightened my position to give her plenty of space.

She didn't speak, and ran the mop with water, trying to rinse it clean.

"You...... It's been a bit long! I reminded her.

"Oh." She pulled up the mop and prepared to dry it before putting it inside.

"I'll help you." I wrung the mop out with my hand, "That's it." ”

"You...... This is? ”

"Colleagues, help each other."

She nodded and pulled the mop inside, and I continued to wash my tea set.

When she came back, my tea set had already been washed, but I deliberately held a teapot and continued to wash it.

She still washes the mop and dries it. Suddenly, there was no silence of footsteps, and I couldn't help but look at her, but fortunately, she was still there.

I grabbed the mop and said to her, "I'll drag it." ”

"You...... You haven't finished washing your tea set yet! She pointed to the teapot I was holding.

"It's clean! You see. "I showed her the teapot with one hand and the mop with the other.

"No need, I can drag it myself." Her eyes were a little flustered, and she tried hard to get the mop to break free of my hand.

"Put it down! Let me come, let a girl do this kind of tiring work all day long, my conscience is a little uncomfortable! Just snatched the mop and didn't give her a chance, "You go in and wipe the table!" ”

"Oh." She replied to me a little sloppily, turned around and went in to get a rag to wash, ready to wipe the table.

"Come and wash, I'll mop the floor." I got out of the way and asked her to wash the rags.

"Oh."

Whether she answered or not, I had already picked up the tea set in my right hand and pulled the mop in my left hand and entered the living room. Putting down the tea set, he began to mop up the floor.

After mopping the living room, I took the mop and went to the balcony of the corridor to clean the mop, ready to continue mopping the remaining areas that I hadn't mopped. As a result, she had just finished wiping the table and came back with a rag to wash.

"You can wash it for me, I washed it well."

"What is not original, you don't have to wash it now, I'll wash it later!"

"You? You okay? ”

"Me? What can I do? ”

"But, you're not right today!"

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know, anyway, you're really wrong today!"

"Did you see that?"

"Hmmm! It's really not right! ”

"Do you know why?"

"I don't know!" She shook her head and looked at me innocently.

"Because...... I like you too! ”

"Huh?" She felt like she had misheard.

"No? Yes, I said I like you! ”

"What do you like about me?"

"I like you, mop the floor for you!"

"But did you know I have a boyfriend?" She hesitated for a moment before she said something I couldn't accept.

"I don't know!" I maintain an attitude of indifference and do not panic!

"Then I'll tell you now, you won't know!"

"Okay, I got it."

"Can you give me back the mop, then?"

"Can't!"

"I have a boyfriend, you ...... You don't have to! ”

"You have a boyfriend, does it have anything to do with me mopping the floor?"

"Didn't you mop the floor because you liked me?"

"It's because I like you!"

"Then I have a boyfriend, are you still procrastinating?"

"Why don't you drag?"

"No, I have a boyfriend, so you don't have to mop the floor because I like me!"

"I think I like you, whether you have a boyfriend or not, whether you like me or not, I still mop the floor for you, what's wrong?"

"You don't have to drag it at all!"

"Then I didn't have to send you back last night."

"You?"

"That's right, I've liked you for a long time, not today, not yesterday. I thought you had a hundred reasons to reject me, but I didn't dare to think that you had a boyfriend. ”

"It's true, I'm sorry." She was a little shocked by what I said.

"I like you myself, how can you say I'm sorry, it's me who should say I'm sorry, I'm sorry for making you frightened." I apologized to her.

She stood there at a loss, and I continued to mop the rest with my mop.

Until everything was done, we didn't say a word again.

I sat in my seat, feeling like I had said everything I needed to say and thinking about what to do next.

"Good morning!" Xiao Chen's arrival kicked off today's work.

Seeing that I just looked at him, I didn't care, and walked straight to my place.

"Nothing, right?" Xiao Chen raised his head and signaled Xiao You's direction.

"Nope." I'll just say one simple word.

Xiao Chen, who was waiting for me to say the following, waited for a while, but didn't hear me say anything more, so he had to say, "Oh." "For a moment.

One morning, the three of them did not say a word, as if they had agreed, and they were very careful in their work, afraid of breaking this lifeless peace.

Mr. Huang came to the company at more than nine o'clock and saw that the three of us were actively working together, although we didn't know what we were busy with, but it was rare that he didn't make a sound to let us go to tea. When he leaves the company, no one cares.

This calmness even continued until I had dinner with Xiao Chen at noon, and his occasional words were dismissed by my simple reply.

Since Xiao Chen joined the company in the morning, I have only thought about one thing: how can I continue to get along with Xiao You.

I also have to recognize two realities: one is that I have already told her what I like. One is that she has a boyfriend.

One is an angel and the other is a devil. If I could let go of my liking and fulfill the devil, maybe it wouldn't be so nerve-wracking.

I remembered Xiao Chen's words: "What can you do?" At that time, I didn't think it was a big problem. Only now did I realize that there was a big problem, and if I had to let go of a person I liked, a person I liked for the first time, a person who made me experience that liking is so wonderful for the first time in 25 years, how could I let go, how could I let go?

However, if you don't let go, how do you get along? As long as my liking is still there, facing her is like facing two people, and there will always be a phantom standing behind her.

"Those words in the morning. I don't think I've heard of it, and you don't think you did. When I was about to get off work, a text message from Xiaoyou came.

I looked at the text message and wanted to say to her, "How can something that has been said not count?" This is deceiving yourself! ”

In the end, I chose to deceive myself and gave her a "Oh." ”

After sending it, I felt a lot more relaxed, and I didn't seem to have the intense torture I felt just now.

It turns out that deception is an analgesic.

"I think you have something to do today, or something big!" Xiao Chen packed up the things on the table and prepared to get off work.

"Well, big deal, but solved." I looked at him with a smile.

"Not really."

"Solved for now."

"Hey, come on."

"Oh, by the way, how much was yesterday, I'll give it to you."

"Don't give it to me yet, I'll talk about it when you're done. I'll flash first. ”

When Xiao You finished cleaning up and came out, he didn't speak, and he didn't explain to me that I wanted to remember to close this and that.

I didn't dare look up at her. When she was gone, I slowly cleaned up, the locks that should be closed, the locks that should be locked.

Also, follow along.

It's just that I made another decision just now, and I deceived myself into going back this way.

followed her from afar, without the trepidation of the past.

Relaxed, like a purposeless walk.
