Chapter 14: Remembrance
In order to prevent what Wang Wenwen was afraid of from happening, Qi Mu chose to acquiesce in the face of gossip.
He will never forget the scene of Wang Wenwen standing at the door of his house in rags when he opened the door on the night of the college entrance examination, and Wang Wenwen said everything to him incoherently.
Qi Mu asked her to call the police, she was so scared that she huddled into a ball, and Qi Mu sat quietly next to her all night that day.
Early the next morning, Wang Wenwen said to Qi Mu as if she was fine, but Qi Mu didn't mention it again in half-belief.
When he saw Wang Wenwen again, but the other party jumped off the building, the powerlessness of retaining made him very self-reproachful, he should have been with her and should not believe her sentence. If I had cared more about her at the beginning, would the ending be different?
Qi Mu's eyes slowly dimmed, and he said, "This is the only thing I can do for her." ”
Li Xia: "Zhou Xiong was arrested..."
Qi Mu: "I did it, the innocent people left, and the people who made mistakes should pay the price." ”
Li Xia puffed out his cheeks and forcibly held back his tears to change the topic: "I heard that you are quite indulgent after the college entrance examination... Talked about... There are several girlfriends, one prettier than the other. ”
Qi Mu scratched his head and smiled evilly: "You know this? You don't have a crush on me, do you? "Flirtatious.
Li Xia gave him a thumbs up: "Cool! You're quite narcissistic. ”
Along the way, the two talked and laughed, and after taking a taxi to the school, Qi Mu sent Li Xia to the downstairs of the dormitory, Li Xia said goodbye to him and turned around to leave, Qi Mu stopped her: "Old classmate add a WeChat and then go." ”
Li Xia turned around and took out his mobile phone and said, "Okay~ Old classmate, will I sweep you or will you sweep me?" ”
Qi Mu clicked on the QR code: "Thank you, old classmate, you scan me." ”
After adding WeChat, Qi Mu looked at Li Xia's departing back downstairs stupidly, until he couldn't see the other party, just like the old Ah Huang......
The other side.
After coming out of the bar, the crowd dispersed, Li Wei and Jiang Hui walked side by side, and Jiang Hui asked about Qi Mu intentionally or unintentionally.
At first, Li Wei responded and then remained silent, Jiang Hui is a smart person, she can see that the other party likes her, and she also knows the other party's mood at the moment.
Li Wei deliberately slowed down his pace and naturally followed behind her, and then dialed Qi Mu's phone, and Qi Mu answered the phone: "Put." "Signal him to fart quickly,
Li Wei: "You come out, we are in the park in front of your community, Jiang Hui likes you." ”
"Who? I don't know, I don't go. Qi Mu paused for two or three seconds and said again, "Are you sick?" ”
Li Wei: "Please, you are my father." ”
Qi Mu, who is overflowing with father's love, can't resist his cheating son at all: "Who is she?" Do you like her? Now? ”
Li Wei: "The sophomore sister I told you before, the one in today's basketball game, I like it, now." ”
Qi Mu hung up the phone, and the more he thought about it, the more speechless he became, the girl my son likes likes his father? What the heck.
In this way, Qi Mu arrived at the park, the park at ten o'clock seemed a little deserted, under the warm yellow street lamp, he put his hands in his pockets and looked down at his shadow, thinking of Li Xia, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth.
Li Wei: "Qi Mu." ”
Before Qi Mu could retract the upturned corners of his mouth, he reflexively turned his head away.
In this way, Qi Mu looked at the girl opposite with a smile that he didn't have time to put away, Li Wei's eyes shuttled back and forth on the two of them, and the atmosphere was really weird.
Qi Mu pretended to smile easily: "You are Jiang... Jiang..."
"Jiang Hui." She replied, a little embarrassed.
Qi Mu stood up straight: "Li Wei said that you are looking for me, is there something wrong?" ”
Jiang Hui: "There's a dessert shop near here, it's not bad, why don't we sit there." ”
"Looking for me?" Qi Mu ignored her question and asked again.
Jiang Hui took a deep breath, and it seemed that the boy opposite didn't seem to be very interested in her: "I like ......"
"I don't like you, I'll leave first if it's okay, I'm very poor." Qi Mu interrupted the other party's words, he yawned and turned around to hook Li Wei's neck and walked back.
Li Wei wanted to say something but was stopped by Qi Mu's tight hand, Qi Mu whispered, "Don't look back." ”
Li Wei: "Didn't you refuse to come?" Is this a refusal? What's the trouble? ”
Qi Mu: "I'm not Tang Xuanzong, you don't want to be Li Mao, she's not Yang Guifei." ”
Li Wei thought for a long time and suddenly realized: "Your uncle, I really regard myself as my father, I am your grandfather......"
Qi Mu: "......"
Back to the community.
As soon as the door opened, Li Wei took off his shoes and sat on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, picked up the apple on the coffee table and gnawed it, Qi Mu changed his shoes and said, "Can you put on the slippers?" ”
Li Wei couldn't spit out clearly with an apple in his mouth: "It's okay, I don't think your house is dirty." ”
Qi Mu: "My family thinks your feet are dirty, and the apple has been left for at least a week, and you don't feel dirty if you don't wash it?" ”
Li Wei: "It's okay, I'm dirtier than this apple, and the apple doesn't hate me, and I don't hate it."
After washing his hands, Qi Mu opened the refrigerator, glanced around, and asked, "Eat?" ”
At this time, Li Wei was sitting on the carpet with a game controller, indulging in the game and couldn't extricate himself, he didn't hear it at all, Qi Mu didn't ask again, took two eggs and some vegetables, and turned around and went into the kitchen.
After a while, two bowls of hot noodle soup came out of the pot, and Li Wei smelled the fragrance and got up and sat down at the table.
Qi Mu swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Old rules. ”
Li Wei, who gobbled up: "Understand, you cook, I'll wash the dishes." ”
Qi Mu leaned on the back of the chair and took out his mobile phone, his eyes fell on the WeChat interface, and his fingers slid back and forth on the screen as if he was making up some kind of determination.
It is not by chance that he came to NTU, there are too many things that happened during the summer vacation of the third year of high school, and that kind of suppressed emotions poured out from time to time, every time he thought of Li Xia, he was more relaxed, since he peeked at Li Xia's volunteer form, Qi Mu never forgot it and couldn't help but apply for the same university with the other party.
He is like a contradiction, pulling back and forth between depravity and upward, and the point of this contradiction lies in Li Xia. If he hadn't known Li Xia, he would have been able to be frank and degenerate, and he wouldn't think about it and ask himself, would Li Xia like this Qi Mu? Can Li Xia accept such Qi Mu?
Li Wei picked up the bowl and swept away the noodle soup, and after burping, he said, "Who is that girl today?" Don't you really live in a dormitory? You really won't let me live with you? ”
After receiving a roll of the eyes, Li Wei was quiet for more than ten seconds and spoke again: "Your good daddy......"
Qi Mu slammed his fist on the table, and Li Wei changed his words: "Qi Jingnian... It's quite generous to say it or not, it's just an ATM. ”
Qi Mu clicked on Li Xia's circle of friends and flipped through them one by one, he said: "Not only is it generous to beat people, but I hate it, but I am afraid that one day I will die, and I will have money to spend." ”
Thinking of the scene when Qi Mu's forehead was smashed by Qi Jingnian with a golf club and smashed into blood, Li Wei gasped.
Li Wei said while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "Bah, bah, you will live a hundred years." ”
Qi Mu didn't look up, his eyes were still on his phone: "Borrow your auspicious words." ”
Li Wei paused and asked seriously: "Brother Qi, do you really plan to be like this all the time?" ”
has always been like this, he would rather lose 1,000 to himself than injure 800 enemies, disguise himself as a gentleman to retaliate against Qi Jingnian, and jump back and forth on the opponent's thunder point in an attempt to annoy the other party.
Qi Mu looked at the phone, his vision gradually blurred, his eyes lost focus, and he said, "What can I do, let me be like a marionette and follow him?" ”
"I can't do it."
"It doesn't matter if you lose a thousand yourself, or if you hurt the enemy by eight hundred, as long as you can provoke Qi Jingnian to be unhappy, I will be happy."
Li Wei walked into the kitchen thoughtfully with the bowl, and Qi Mu leaned back on the back of the chair and stared at the ceiling.
He didn't have a choice, he thought that he had stayed away from the Qi family, but in the end he was still in the same place, and the beautiful Qi Jingnian he thought could be easily destroyed. He had the life he wanted to live, but he didn't have the opportunity to live the life he wanted.
There was a buzzing sound from the mobile phone in his palm, Qi Mu raised the phone and looked at the caller ID Qi Ming, and there was helplessness on the other end of the phone when he connected the phone: "Zixin said that you ignored her recently, and you blocked her contact information." ”
Qi Mu held his phone in one hand and picked his nails in the other, and said casually: "Hmm." ”
Qi Ming on the other end of the phone sighed: "It's sad to hear her voice, I just put her to sleep, it's very difficult for Zixin to be abroad alone..."
Qi Mu: "Are you finished?" After saying that, I hung up. ”
Qi Ming: "You are always like this, can't you be nice to Zixin, she likes you." ”
Qi Mu got up from the back of the chair and sat up straight: "She likes me, so I want to laugh and talk?" Then I don't like her, and I don't see her keeping a distance from me, I can't do this thing if I wronged myself and made others happy, you love to do it, don't pull me. ”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and Qi Ming looked at himself reflected in the floor-to-ceiling window, he was sitting in a wheelchair and looking emaciated. He was a few years older than Qi Mu, and he knew Liu Zixin earlier than Qi Mu, but he failed to make Liu Zixin like him.
Qi Ming: "It's me who was abrupt, I'm sorry." ”
Qi Mu: "I will pay you back, but not in this way. Qi Mu hung up.
Li Wei didn't see Qi Mu after washing the dishes, and after cleaning up the garbage and going out, he swiped his finger on the mobile phone interface a few times and sent, "Let's go, it's windy on the top floor, rest early." ”
On the top floor.
Qi Mu sat under the concrete fence under the fence, his legs stretched out at random, his left wrist on his thigh, his fingers between his cigarettes, his right hand propped back on the plane, his head tilted into the air, and at his feet was a can of finished beer.
The smoke ring swirled around his fingertips, rose and then dissipated, Qi Mu spread the cigarette ash into the can, took out his mobile phone, and replied to Li Wei: "Okay." ”
Open Li Xia's circle of friends interface again, the last dynamic is that on the day of the end of the college entrance examination, Li Xia hooked Wang Wenwen's neck, the two of them smiled like flowers, the background is the school gate, and the copywriting is 'The high school career is over, and my friendship with you will never end'There is a love behind the text.
in the dormitory.
Li Xia tossed and turned in bed, and the surroundings were very quiet, and he could hear the humming of the air conditioner, and occasionally snoring.
She misses Wang Wenwen, she misses Wang Wenwen all the time, whenever she sees a familiar scene, she always thinks of each other, and meeting Qi Mu today makes her miss it even more.
After the college entrance examination, the old classmates went their separate ways, and walked on their own way home in this youth, but they never saw Wang Wenwen again.
