Chapter 18: Fresh Orange Winter Melon Balls [4]
The biological clock did not wake Yan Xiao on time on this day, two hours earlier, and she actually woke up at seven o'clock in the morning.
There was a slight sound outside the door, she got out of bed and opened the door and stretched out her head to look, next to the floor-to-ceiling window was Huo Zexi's back, wearing a thin tight sweatshirt, jogging on the treadmill.
The sunlight was neither thick nor light, and his silhouette was slightly blurred.
Although it is a little literary and sour, what pops up in Yan Xiao's mind at this moment is that sentence - every day I open my eyes and see you and the sunshine are there, that is the future I want.
Before he had time to enjoy it for a long time, Huo Zexi had already finished his exercise, and after pressing the stop, he slowed down and got off the treadmill.
So Yan Xiao, who was holding the head of the bird's nest, was discovered, and at this moment she was still standing behind the corner of the corridor, like a silent peeping spirit.
Huo Zexi hadn't been able to breathe calmly, there were traces of wetness on his hair, and when he saw Yan Xiao, he was stunned for a moment: "Woke up so early?" ”
His sportswear is a slim model, standing in the backlight, the silhouette of his body can be seen at a glance, Yan Xiao saw him so hormonally bursting early in the morning, his face became hot, and he looked east and west to divert his gaze: "Well, I'll come over to drink water..."
She tried to justify why she was standing there.
It's a pity that Huo Zexi didn't seem to care about this problem at all, so he answered casually, walked into the bathroom, closed the door and put water in the bath.
Yan Xiao, who was outside the door, heard the sound of the shower, forced himself to divert his attention, poured a glass of water and stood by the window to drink.
He quickly finished taking a shower and came out in a few minutes, Yan Xiao didn't dare to turn around quickly, and listened to his footsteps before entering the room before slowly turning around and going in to wash.
The clothes I washed yesterday were ready to wear after being dried in the washing machine, and Yan Xiao changed into her own clothes, and only then did she feel a sense of security completely returned.
Huo Zexi sat in the living room reading a magazine, and when he saw Yan Xiao walking out after dressing, he put down the magazine: "Go out to eat." ”
Yan Xiao snorted, and he said again: "Then send you home." ”
Sitting in Huo Zexi's car, Yan Xiao looked out the window.
After this time, what other reason did she have to see him? Rejected and unconnected...
Thinking about it, Huo Zexi glanced at her: "Yan Xiao? ”
Yan Xiao turned his head to look at him: "Huh? ”
The car drove out of the community, and his voice was faint: "I didn't wear a seat belt." ”
Yan Xiao suddenly sighed, fastened his seat belt, and couldn't help asking, "Where are we going?" ”
"There's a morning tea shop nearby." He said and turned with the steering wheel.
It is a very famous Hong Kong-style morning tea shop in the city center, because it is a weekend, there are quite a lot of people, and the two of them have a place on the second floor.
There is a family of five coming to breakfast next to it, children are two or three years old, sitting on chairs and eating steamed buns quietly, and adults are chatting.
After sitting down, the child kept staring at Huo Zexi at first, and then slowly moved over, holding half a barbecued pork bun in his little hand, and handed it to him greasy, while repeating: "You eat, you eat..."
Yan Xiao smiled in surprise, daring to love Huo Zexi not only has a woman's fate, but also a child's fate!
Huo Zexi sat and leaned over slightly, unconsciously smiling, "Uncle doesn't eat." ”
The grandmother of the child next to her shouted: "Jiaojiao, what are you doing?" ”
After walking over, I found the man next to my granddaughter, and hugged her with a smile, "Give back what you have eaten to your uncle?" “
"Uncle is handsome!" The little girl who is called Petite speaks out loud.
Yan Xiao: "..."It's over, I've been like this since I was a child, and I will definitely be a cosmic-level in the future!"
Look at Huo Zexi again...
He was actually laughing, and the two big words "gentle" were invisibly written behind him.
Yan Xiao was unwilling, and took a sip of soy milk: "I also think you are handsome." ”
Huo Zexi's eyes turned to Yan Xiao, obviously he didn't expect Yan Xiao to suddenly say such a thing, and he didn't know what to answer.
Yan Xiao looked at his reaction, "Why did she say you were handsome and you laughed, and I said you were handsome, and you didn't have any expression?" ”
Huo Zexi couldn't understand: "What expression should I have?" ”
Yan Xiao was cheeky: "Smile at me!" Why did she feel like she had become worse after rejecting her confession?
Huo Zexi ignored her words and pushed a plate of durian crisp to her: "Don't talk when you eat." ”
Yan Xiao glanced at his slightly serious appearance a few times, pouted his lips but couldn't help but smile.
According to the plan, Yan Xiao was sent home after eating, and the two sat in the car and were quiet for a while before leaving.
Huo Zexi held the steering wheel with one hand, without urging, and the two of them were silent.
"Huo Zexi...", her voice was a little low: "I think I still like you." ”
"After a while, you won't think so." His voice was calm.
Yan Xiao frowned: "I'm not impulsive. ”
She was resolute, and Huo Ze simply confessed and asked, "What do you like about me?" ”
I've only known each other for less than a month, I don't know, I don't even have much contact, I say it's not impulsive, but he doesn't believe it.
“… I like everything. She said as her voice grew weaker and weaker.
After a few seconds of silence, he said lightly: "A lot of things need to be understood slowly to know. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Xiao looked at him: "Then are you willing to let me understand?" ”
After looking at each other for a moment, something in Yan Xiao's eyes was slowly glowing, he turned his head, no longer looked at the hope in her eyes, and answered the question: "The past few years of college are the best time to improve yourself, don't waste it." ”
After saying that, Yan Xiao did not respond again.
She suddenly felt like a chess piece, thinking that she had taken many steps and was closer to him, but he used a light sentence to invisibly demarcate the Chu River and Han boundary.
So what I thought was close at hand became the other end that could not be crossed.
"I know" Yan Xiao lowered his head and pulled the car door and walked out, put his hand on the car door, hesitated for a moment, and then closed it again.
I should have known it a long time ago, tried again, and it was still the same ending.
After walking a few steps, Yan Xiao couldn't help but look back, his car had disappeared.
"Tell me, what's wrong with Yan Xiao?"
Huo Pingguo chased after her brother and kept questioning all the way.
Seeing Huo Zexi go upstairs and enter the bedroom and close the door, Huo Pingguo rushed over to block his door again, and opened it: "Tell me about it!" ”
She was stalking, and Huo Zexi was a little upset, "Can you not follow me!" ”
"If you don't say it, my mother and I won't be reconciled." Huo Pingguo moved out of her mother, increasing the threat.
After she finished speaking, Huo Zexi looked at her coldly and warned silently.
Huo Pingguo was stared at a little behind her back, and her attitude softened a little: "Yan Xiao is very good in all aspects except for her lack of height, and isn't it popular recently to be the 'cutest height difference'?" Honestly, you two are a good match! ”
Huo Zexi put down the hand that was pressing on the doorknob and was quiet for a moment: "She is still in school." ”
Huo Pingguo spoke for Yan Xiao: "What is this?" I have a sister who is now 26 years old and still in school. ”
She didn't understand what he meant at all, Huo Zexi touched her forehead, and explained a little patiently: "I mean, she's too small." ”
Huo Pingguo frowned: "She has that kind of character, how mature do you ask people to be?" ”
"I didn't ask for it, I just didn't think it was appropriate."
"But... She really likes you! Huo Pingguo's expression was sincere.
Huo Zexi was indifferent: "At her stage, many things were fresh at that time, and they came and went quickly. ”
"But people have liked you for a long time, not for fun." Huo Pingguo explained helplessly.
There is no way to argue this sentence "I have liked it for a long time", and it has only been more than half a month since the two of them met for the first time, Huo Zexi didn't want to dwell on this topic with her, so he closed the door: "I changed my clothes." ”
"Brother, you really don't feel anything about Yan Xiao at all?" Huo Pingguo was still asking unrelentingly outside the door.
Huo Ze's action of unbuttoning stopped slightly, and the voice outside the door continued: "If it's really impossible, then don't be good to her in the future, don't give her hope, it's good for her." ”
After being stunned for a moment, he lowered his eyes and continued to unbutton his shirt, but did not speak.
As soon as Yan Xiao went home, she went straight to the room, Yan's mother wanted to ask all the words she wanted to ask, Yan Xiao walked into the room and closed the door, isolating all inquiries.
Falling on the bed, even if I didn't think about anything, my heart was still uncomfortable.
opened Huo Zexi's Weibo again as if she was obsessed, she couldn't listen to the radio last night, she didn't put on headphones, so she turned on the audio.
His voice was clean and pure, without the tone and words that made her sad in real life.
For a moment, she felt that she didn't just like him, she was living in the invisible world, not him Huo Zexi.
The ending song is a ballad with an obscure meaning, not a sad song, and Yan Xiao feels tear-jerking for no reason.
Yan's mother outside the door had already felt that something was wrong, and when she pushed the door open, she saw Yan Xiao, whose face was buried in the quilt, called her, and did not respond.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" Yan's mother sat on the edge of the bed and patted her gently.
Yan Xiao raised his head and wiped his eyes: "It's nothing." ”
Yan's mother subconsciously: "Did something happen last night?" You won't..."
"Mom! Don't talk nonsense, people don't mean anything to me at all. Yan Xiao said and looked down at his fingers, his tone was a little abnormal.
Seeing this situation, Yan's mother understood, paused, and comforted: "Originally, things in this world are not perfect, he doesn't like you, and you will naturally meet people you like and like you in the future, you are still so young, what are you afraid of?" ”
Yan Xiao couldn't hear the words "you are still young" the most, and there was a crying tone in his tone: "But I only like him!" "After a long time, you won't like him, it's not a big deal..."
Before Yan's mother finished speaking, Yan Xiao interrupted: "No!" ”
"How do you know you won't if you don't give it a try?" Yan's mother helped her straighten her scattered bangs.
If you quit listening to him every night and don't see him anymore, will you gradually dislike him?
However, she was suddenly a little scared, she really didn't like himself anymore, what would become of her?
