“…… There's a kind of love called letting go......"

On the coffee table in the living room, a small radio is playing, and the radio is playing a song.

Gu Luoqing sat curled up on the sofa, holding a warm water bag in his arms and a blue blanket on his legs.

Next to the sofa, there is also an electric fan, which the man bought for her.

She's afraid of the cold.

However, she didn't turn on the electric fan, which was too much electricity.

Although it is now winter, there was a snow last night, and the temperature reached below freezing. But there is still no heating.

Because the time has not come.

The temperature in the room is also very low.

Gu Luoqing had the thick book of "Dream of Red Mansions" on his lap, but he didn't turn the page for a long time, and his fingers stroked the raised dots on the page, and those dots represented the word CHEN.

She listened to the singing sound coming out of the radio, and was inexplicably a little irritable, so she took the radio and changed it.

“…… Missing is a sick ......"

It's the same song, she listened to it, and then changed the channel, and it was finally not a song.

Gu Luoqing was not in the mood to "read" a book, and felt that the room was getting dark, so he lifted the blanket and got up to turn on the light.

In contrast, she prefers a bright environment, where she can perceive at least some light in front of her eyes. And not pitch black.

It's getting dark, and Chen Wei is about to come back.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the sound of the door opening with a key outside.

Gu Luoqing straightened his hair with his hands, picked up the book of "Dream of Red Mansions" again, put it on his knees, raised his head, faced the direction of the door, and said, "Why is it so early today?" ”

Chen Wei said, "It was snowing, and it was difficult to walk on the road, so I came back early." I'll go take a shower first. ”

So saying, he went into the bathroom.

Gu Luoqing listened to the sound of water in the bathroom, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

It's been a week since their last cold war.

On the third day, she took the initiative to soften, and Chen Wei was willing to communicate with her.

Ostensibly, the Cold War is over.

However, she was not happy at all.

Chen Wei no longer has the same fiery gaze as before, and he no longer uses lame excuses to lean towards her, and when he talks to her, he doesn't have the kind of pampering he had before......

She could clearly feel that he was distancing himself from her.

Although there is politeness and gentlemanly demeanor, there is also a sense of alienation.

This is her favorite relationship and distance before, and everything she has done has always been to keep such a distance from Chen Wei.

Now, she's done what she wants.

But why aren't you happy at all?

……

During the meal, Chen Wei steamed a fish and carefully reminded her, "This fish has spines, you should be careful when eating." ”

Gu Luoqing couldn't help but think of last month, when he was also eating fish, he took the initiative to help her pick out the thorns, and then put the meat in the bowl in front of her.

Now, he doesn't have that gentleness anymore.

Tick.

Suddenly, the man's cell phone rang, and it was a text message tone.

Then, there was a key sound, and the man was replying to a text message.

When he finished replying, he put the phone back on the table, and a few seconds later, another text message came.

For some reason, Gu Luoqing had a bad premonition in his heart.

In the past, Chen Wei rarely received text messages and made few phone calls. She had heard of his background and knew that he didn't have many friends, and he wasn't a character who liked to make friends.

Now, I was unusually chatting with people about text messages.

Who sent it to him?

Male or female?

Gu Luoqing seemed to ask casually, "Who?" ”

"A friend."

The man replied, the button pressed quickly, and after putting down the phone again, it finally stopped ringing.

Gu Luoqing felt even more suspicious, but she held back and didn't ask.

In fact, it's not that she doesn't know how to get along with men, it's just that she used to have enough capital and confidence, and she didn't need to consider men's feelings at all, so she naturally went her own way.

……

In the next few days, Gu Luoqing felt that the momentum was getting more and more wrong, when he was at home, the man's mobile phone received text messages from time to time, and every time, he replied in seconds.

The other party is also back in seconds.

Seconding back is a very delicate act.

Like herself, except for things at work, she rarely replies to other people's messages in seconds. In life, there is only one person who can make her return in seconds.

What kind of person will be able to make Chen Wei reply in seconds and send messages non-stop every day?

Another day passed, in the evening, as if to verify her conjecture, the man took a bath and cooked a meal, and said to her that he had made an appointment with someone and would not eat at home tonight.

Then, leaving her alone, she was gone.

Before leaving, he also went back to his room, probably to change his clothes.

Gu Luoqing also heard the sound of an electric razor, which was a gift from her on his birthday two months ago.

Chen Wei is not a person who pays much attention to appearance, sometimes, he only shaves his beard once in ten days and half a month, and does not pay attention to his hair once every two months.

can let him shave his beard once before going out, except for interviews, he can only go on a date with other women.

After the man went out, Gu Luoqing sat at the table alone.

It's still three dishes and one soup, and today's soup is black chicken soup.

Every time, when her menstrual period was approaching, the man would stew a pot of black chicken soup. once made her think that he was a sea king who read countless women.

The soup is ready.

Gu Luoqing took a sip, put it down, and sat there blankly, smelling the fragrance of food, and the whole person was surrounded by a huge sense of loneliness.

She was left with one more person.

This home seems to have become cold again.

She thought back to the time she had lived with that man for the past six months.

Some memories of "previous life" hit her again.

Recently, she thinks less and less about her "past life", and those things seem to be becoming more and more blurred.

……

I don't know how long it took, Gu Luoqing suddenly moved, picked up the bowl, and drank the already cold black chicken soup in one go.

Then, he got up and filled a bowl of rice and began to eat.

The food was already cold, and she didn't seem to realize it.

After eating, she began to clean up and wash all the dishes and chopsticks.

After doing this, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

She sat down on the couch again, turned on the radio, covered herself with a blanket, picked up the copy of "Dream of the Red Chamber", flipped to the night of the marking, and traced her fingers over the raised dots on the page.

The half-literate style of this book, she actually doesn't like it very much.

However, the man liked the book very much, and sometimes discussed the characters and plots of the book with her. So, when she's bored, she turns to read a few pages.

It's been almost a month, and I've only read less than half of the first volume.

Now, she patiently "reads".

This reading is more than an hour.

Just as her cell phone was chiming, a long, long time after twenty-three o'clock, the door finally sounded outside.

The man is back.

He asked, "Why don't you sleep yet?" ”

Gu Luoqing raised his head, smiled and said, "I'm fascinated by reading books." ”

When the man approached, she smelled cumin and pepper and had apparently just eaten the barbecue.

It doesn't matter, as long as he doesn't spend the night outside, there's room for redemption.

"Chen Wei."

She closed the book and called out the man's name.

"Huh?"

"Tomorrow, it's my birthday, can you accompany me to a movie?"

“…… Good. ”
