Chapter 15 The Life of Mandarin Ducks

The next day, when Chen Xiang woke up, it was already more than seven o'clock, and the white sunlight sprinkled its energy evenly in every space of the small dormitory through the curtains covered with light purple flowers, and Chen Xiang could feel the temperature of the daylight.

I don't know if it's because of the warm sunshine, or because I'm about to see Wang Yan, Chen Xiang is in a good mood, he quickly put the toiletries into the blue basin, came to the pool outside the courtyard, brushed his teeth, and washed his face with soap, then washed his hair, shook the water on his hair, and rubbed it with a towel at will.

After washing up and entering the dormitory, Chen Xiang changed into his favorite white pants and put on blue jeans before going out.

After turning the bus twice, when Chen Xiang was about to arrive at Wang Yan, it was almost ten o'clock, and he was taking out a note and preparing to find a place. The mobile phone rang, and it was Wang Yan calling.

"Where have you been?" Wang Yan's voice was a little eager.

"I just arrived. Looking for a place. Chen Xiang said calmly.

"You get off the bus, go forward, I'll pick you up." Wang Yan's voice seemed to be a little more relaxed.

"Okay." Chen Xiang agreed. He heard the joy in Wang Yan's voice, as if he had come at the right time.

Wang Yan used the public phone in the basement, put down the phone, and she hurried out of the basement. After walking a short distance, he met Chen Xiang who was rushing over.

When she saw Chen Xiang, Wang Yan hurriedly explained: "When you see Qiu Yu and them, don't say that I have been to you." ”

Chen Xiang was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood that Wang Yan had never really been a boyfriend and girlfriend, and he still had traditional ideas in his bones. He nodded and said, "Well, okay." Wang Yan led Chen Xiang back to the basement together. The basement is divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter, morning, noon and evening. All year round, day and night, it is equally dim and damp.

Chen Xiang asked, "You just live here?" Chen Xiang's question was not suspicion, but incredulity, Wang Yan in his heart was like a flower about to bloom, how could he live in such a damp and lightless place!

"Hmm." Wang Yan responded, the tone sounded natural, neither humble nor arrogant, as if he could carry ten thousand catties on his shoulders, and he didn't take this harsh environment seriously.

"Hurry up, it's too wet." Chen Xiang frowned and said.

"Well, when I find a suitable dormitory near the unit next week, I'll move." Wang Yan felt from Chen Xiang's expression and voice that he really cared about himself, and an inexplicable warm current flowed through his heart.

While talking, the two of them had already crossed a bend, passed by several dormitories that were open or not, and came to the two dormitories that Wang Yan and they shared. Qiu Yu and her boyfriend Ah Hui had already packed their luggage. Seeing that Wang Yan led someone in, without waiting for Wang Yan's introduction, Qiu Yu couldn't help but exaggerate and said, "Wow, I didn't expect Chen Xiang to be so handsome!"

Chen Xiang smiled and asked, "Everything has been moved?" ”

"It's moved. Wait, I'll go out and call a taxi. You'll help carry things out later. Ah Hui said and walked outside.

Wang Yan didn't have time to introduce them, so they accosted each other as if they were acquaintances. Wang Yan responded with a smile: "Okay, then let's take the luggage to the door first." ”

"What are the things to move?" Chen Xiang looked at Qiu Yu and asked. Qiu Yu and Ah Hui both looked relatively simple, which made Chen Xiang's impression of Wang Yan better. The so-called people are divided into groups, and Wang Yan's personality can also be seen from Wang Yan's friends. It is said that women in love are very careful, in fact, men are more delicate, men in love mobilize all cells to perceive the opposite sex, and then position them, whether they are friends or couples. At this moment, Chen Xiang is even more determined to turn Wang Yan into his partner.

"Just these six big boxes, and three packages. You and Ah Hui carry a big box, and Wang Yan and I take a small package. Qiu Yu said mischievously.

"Well, I'll get it. As he spoke, Chen Xiang lifted a large box in each hand. There were three packages in total, and Wang Yan and Qiu Yu were both vying to get two and let the other person take one. In the end, Wang Yan mentioned two, and Qiu Yu mentioned one. When they walked outside, Ah Hui happened to explain to the taxi where they were going, the two girls were waiting outside, Chen Xiang and Ah Hui went back to the basement together and lifted the remaining big boxes.

There were more books in the box, and it was relatively heavy, and by the time he put the boxes into the trunk of the taxi, Chen Xiang was already sweating.

After watching Qiu Yu and the taxi they took leave, Chen Xiang and Wang Yan were silent and returned to the dormitory in the basement together. "It's up to you, you move out." Chen Xiang looked at the half-empty dormitory and said to Wang Yan. Somehow, he didn't feel at ease that Wang Yan was living here.

Looking at the half-empty dormitory, Wang Yan also had a desolate feeling in her heart, thinking that she would have to live alone in this strange basement that accommodated all kinds of people every night in the future, she couldn't help but be a little scared, she glanced at Chen Xiang, and said calmly: "I haven't found a dormitory over there yet, and I plan to share a room with my comrades." When you've found it, you'll come back and help me move. ”

"Don't look for it, you can stay with me. If you live here alone, I don't feel at ease. I'll help you move your things out tonight. Chen Xiang's words are very family-like, and they sound warm and heartwarming.

The home is going to be moved, but Wang Yan didn't plan to move today, and she didn't plan to move Chen Xiang either. However, Qiu Yu is gone, and she really feels a little empty and lonely in her heart. Chen Xiang's words gave her a hint of warmth, and she felt as if he was sheltering her. Before Wang Yan could respond, Chen Xiang pointed to a few towels hanging from the rope and asked, "Can you put these towels on a plate?"

"Hmm." Wang Yan didn't have time to decide between acceptance and rejection, and Chen Xiang's questioning style guided her to follow his train of thought.

"Is there any laundry out there?" Chen Xiang asked carefully. Wang Yan felt that Chen Xiang was thoughtful, and she replied, "Yes." ”

"You go outside and take all the clothes back, check it, don't miss it." Chen Xiang's words were like reminders and exhortations.

Wang Yan agreed, and went out to take back the clothes that had just been washed in the morning and were still damp. She didn't have many things, just two chests and a bag with a washbasin.

When she walked out, Wang Yan wanted to carry a suitcase, but was stopped by Chen Xiang. Chen Xiang's tone of voice was like an order, and he only heard him say: "Don't take it, let me carry it, you hurry up and call a taxi." As he spoke, Chen Xiang snatched the box that Wang Yan was about to lift in his hand, put it on his left shoulder, held it with his left hand, and lifted another box with his right hand, sandwiching the bag under his right arm. Wang Yan walked out of the basement empty-handed.

Chen Xiang didn't know that the back of his cool and almost chic carrying the box this time was deeply engraved in Wang Yan's heart. Girls like boys, sometimes it may not be because of how long the relationship is, it may be that at a certain moment, a casual action of the other party enters her eyes and her heart. Chen Xiang's action of taking the initiative and quickly carrying the box on his shoulder, falling in Wang Yan's eyes, was really full of manliness.

This lot is convenient to take a taxi, the two of them went out of the basement, and not long after they arrived at the door, they got a car. When they arrived at Chen Xiang's residence, it was already dark. After a simple wash, it's time to go to bed. When she was sleeping, Wang Yan took out the thin quilt she brought and slept in the bed. Chen Xiang saw Wang Yan like this, and slept alone in the blanket outside.

The next morning, Chen Xiang got up early, took Wang Yan to the breakfast stall, and asked for two bowls of tofu brain and a drawer of xiaolongbao. After the two had dinner together, Chen Xiang sent Wang Yan to the station and waited for the bus with her, and when the bus came, Wang Yan left, he returned to the dormitory.

In the evening, after Chen Xiang got off work, he left the office without hesitation, and went straight to the vegetable market to buy a handful of artemisia stalks and a pound of pork ribs. When he was busy with the meal, Chen Xiang felt warm in his heart, and when Wang Yan came back, the meal was ready.

Wang Yan didn't expect Chen Xiang to have cooking skills, and after the two ate, Chen Xiang proposed to take Wang Yan out for a walk.

Wang Yan agreed, and walked with Chen Xiang in the direction far away from the residence, which was a path with crops on both sides. It was a moonlit night, and a few insects chirped from time to time on both sides of the road, and this natural and pastoral atmosphere was perfect for simple-minded lovers.

Chen Xiang stopped, and Wang Yan also stopped. Chen Xiang lowered his head and grabbed Wang Yan's moderately thick waist, and his lips were imprinted on hers. Chen Xiang explored deeply, and Wang Yan's clumsy reaction only deepened his desire to explore.

I don't know if I was really targeted by a few wild mosquitoes, or I couldn't bear the fanatical heart, Chen Xiang said: "There are many mosquitoes, let's go back to sleep." ”

"Hmm." Wang Yan hadn't recovered from the affectionate contact, and replied shyly.

"Haven't you been in a relationship?" Chen Xiang asked suddenly.

Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, and didn't know how to answer. Wang Yan, who has no experience in love at all, doesn't know how to love yet, she just feels that she is 24 years old and has not talked to a partner yet, she must be an abnormal girl in the eyes of others, and besides, girls as old as her know have already been in love several times. Wang Yan is worried that if she doesn't fall in love again, she will definitely not be able to get married, and then it will be over, she must be a weirdo in the eyes of others, and she doesn't want to be a weirdo.

Wang Yan couldn't tell Chen Xiang this idea, she felt that it was a shame that she hadn't been in love, and she couldn't tell him, "I've never been in love, but I want to get married now, just to show that I'm a normal girl." ”

At this time, Wang Yan had not fallen in love with Chen Xiang yet, she just liked him more and did not reject him. Strictly speaking, he only showed up when she wanted to fall in love and start a family the most. Seeing that Wang Yan was silent, Chen Xiang didn't ask, took her hand, and returned to the dormitory together.

After the lights were turned off, Wang Yan still slept inside, and Chen Xiang went into his bed. The fire in Chen Xiang's heart was burning brightly, and he didn't wait long before he approached Wang Yan and said, "I want to sleep with you." ”

Wang Yan was startled, didn't say anything, and didn't hide anymore. Although she didn't know love yet, when Chen Xiang said to her for the first time that she liked herself, she had already decided to live with him. For Wang Yan, this is feelings, this is marriage, in her philosophy, after kissing, with skin to skin, then it should become husband and wife.

Chen Xiang entered Wang Yan's quilt, he wanted to enter further, it was in the prime of his life, and the flame of love was burning fiercely, Wang Yan's resistance only made him want to be one with her more. That Wang Yan said that she was indeed a little mentally retarded in the relationship between men and women, she thought about getting married, but she didn't think that the two of them would marry to do the things of husband and wife, the pain made her resist again and again, and finally, Chen Xiang had the upper hand. From that day on, in Wang Yan's moral world, they seemed to be a legal husband and wife.

For some reason, since Chen Xiang had Wang Yan, he was in a good mood every day, smiling, as if a good life had beckoned to him, and the depressed feelings of a few months ago had long been swept away. Every day, as soon as he got off work, he hurried home to prepare and cook for Wang Yan. What about Wang Yan? I also rushed back as soon as I got off work. Like the mandarin ducks playing in the water, at night, they all look forward to seeing each other as soon as possible and being with each other.

However, in a good life, there will always be some episodes. Suddenly, Wang Yan went out to take a bath in the bathhouse, and the pager was put on the table without it, and it happened that Haitian paged herself and asked her to call back. Chen Xiang called back without Wang Yan's consent, and told Haitian that Wang Yan was his wife, and asked him to tell him anything he wanted. After Haitian listened, he hung up the phone directly. Since then, Haitian has never paged Wang Yan again.

Chen Xiang is also honest, two days later, one night, Chen Xiang said that he rashly called Haitian back, Wang Yan said angrily: "Why don't you tell me, you are just a friend, you do this, make people embarrassed, and friends can't do it." “

The next morning, Wang Yan deliberately didn't say hello to Chen Xiang, and went out to work with her bag. Chen Xiang saw that Wang Yan was going to go out, and he didn't say hello to himself, he was very unhappy in his heart, and he was in a bad mood all day, and when Wang Yan came back in the evening, the two didn't speak, and after eating, Wang Yan cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, sat at the table and read a book, and didn't pay attention to Chen Xiang.

Seeing this, Chen Xiang felt indescribable irritability in his heart, and was a little jealous of Na Haitian, and suddenly said: "Wife, if one day you don't like me." If you tell me, I won't pester you, but hang yourself with a rope behind the door. When Wang Yan heard this, her heart couldn't help but tremble, her eyes moistened, and then she realized that last night's words might have been heavy, and she understood that Chen Xiang was already deeply affectionate to her, so she turned around and looked at Chen Xiang with a smile.

For some reason, Chen Xiang saw Wang Yan smiling, as if the child had been forgiven by an adult for doing something wrong, and immediately happily rubbed in front of Wang Yan, squeezed into a chair with her, and hugged Wang Yan again, and asked her to sit on his lap and read a book with her.

"Wife, I love you." Chen Xiang said softly in Wang Yan's ear. His words came from the heart, and I don't know why, after finding out that he liked Wang Yan, Chen Xiang felt that his heart and eyes had become smaller, and he could only pretend to be Wang Yan in his heart, and it turned out that in the dead of night, he would occasionally think of the woman who had been with him in the past, but now he doesn't think about it at all. He can't pretend to be someone else in his heart, and he can't allow Wang Yan to have anyone else in his heart, any young male else.

"Hmm." A trace of throbbing passed through Wang Yan's heart, and for some reason, Wang Yan felt that she was familiar with Chen Xiang, and Chen Xiang gave her a very cordial feeling, not like a relationship between men and women, but like a kind of confidant and friend who had been separated for many years. She can't tell why she feels this way, in the past 20 years, there have been people of the opposite sex who like her, but she has never been emotional, if the opposite sex touches her hand, she will immediately get goosebumps all over her body, but, Chen Xiang gives her a very different feeling, she does not object to him touching herself, and even likes to go on a blind date with his skin.

"Wife, do you love me?" Chen Xiang held Wang Yan's hand with his hand and tilted his head to stare at Wang Yan. Wang Yan didn't know what love tasted like, she just thought, if she said that she didn't love and lived with him, it was obviously a ridiculous thing, if she said love, she really didn't understand whether this feeling was love now, so she nodded and said, "Well." ”

Chen Xiang got a positive response, his heart was surging, he turned Wang Yan's face to himself, a hot kiss, and in an instant, an ambiguous smell spread from the house, Wang Yan thought to himself, this must be the taste of love. Wang Yan here is "only envious of mandarin ducks, not immortals." For Wang Yan, who has just graduated from college and has never been in a real relationship, love is supreme at the moment, where will she consider what reality and material?

Later, for some reason, Chen Xiang suddenly made a review and analysis of what he had experienced emotionally, and at that time, he still couldn't help but sigh secretly: Marriage is really magical, and what becomes a husband and wife is not necessarily the first love, or the second love, it may be a chance encounter that you never thought of. Perhaps, this is fate.
