The space of the carriage is not spacious, it is very dry by the air conditioning wind, Wen Bailing's fingertips are sickly warm, and his eyes are like pools, which makes people palpitate.
Tang Qi was still holding the drug instructions, holding them in front of him stupidly, and he didn't put it down, and the fingers he was pinching didn't take it back in time.
She shook her head, forced her composure, and denied Wen Bailing's inference, saying that it had nothing to do with Fei Yuzhi, and she was not angry with anyone at all.
But as for the reason for his reluctance to contact him again, Tang Qi avoided talking about it.
How to talk about it?
After all, Wen Bailing only appeared in her life occasionally, and she had only eaten twice, and she never said what she wanted to do with her.
Wen Bailing withdrew her hand, and her eyes always fell on her, as if exploring.
The confined space was already small, Tang Qi was looked at by him like this, and after struggling to survive for half a minute, he couldn't stand it anymore, his face was hot, and he pushed the instructions and medicine bag in his hand indiscriminately to him: "Do you take medicine or not......
It was not Wen Bailing who responded to her, it was the continuous vibration of the mobile phone.
The screen shines through the knitting of the sweater, revealing a faint light.
The call came from Tang's mother.
Tang Qi often talks to her family at this time of the night, and she is afraid that her chatter will disturb the tired patient next to her, so she holds the vibrating mobile phone and prepares to get out of the car.
Wen Bailing stopped her: "Let's pick it up in the car, it's cold outside, I'll get out of the car and take a turn." ”
"But you're still fever......"
He took his coat, dropped the phrase "just to get some air", and pulled the car door and stepped out.
"Hey, Mommy......"
The mobile phone was attached to his ear, and Tang Qi listened to his mother talk about a lot of trivial daily life. said that grandma had a good appetite in the past two days, and she ate half a bowl of porridge more than usual; He also said that the weather in his hometown is good, and it is especially warm when there is sunshine during the day; Mom dried the quilt and washed the curtains today......
"Is the weather in the capital good?"
"It's good, it's the same as my hometown, it's warm during the day and cool at night."
Tang Qi wanted to tell his mother that the magnolia downstairs in the dormitory was about to open, but his eyes turned off and he saw Wen Bailing's figure outside the car window, and he was speechless for a while.
Tang Qi's mother didn't notice Tang Qi's abnormality, and she was still carefully telling her, saying that the old saying says "spring covers autumn freezing", telling Tang Qi not to change out of his thick coat in a hurry, it is not good for his health to be cold, and he is most likely to catch a cold during the change of seasons.
"Your aunt called just now and chatted with me for a while, and my mother suddenly missed you and wanted to ask my good daughter if she was tired from studying these days."
Tang Qi and his mother talked about everything, and naturally talked about today's class dinner, everyone's small complaints about the class being too full and the sixth morning, playing games in English, and losing people drinking Coke......
But she didn't tell her mother about the existence that affected her emotions the most this night.
Hanging up the phone, Tang Qi got out of the car and went to find Wen Bailing: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting outside for so long......"
After only half of the words, she looked at the sparsely lit dormitory building behind Wen Bailing, and suddenly reacted to something, shocked, and her voice was out of tune: "What time is it?" ”
Wen Bailing glanced at her phone: "Ten thirty-seven." ”
In her fourth semester of college, it was the first time she had missed a curfew.
Unable to go back to the dormitory, Tang Qi was in a predicament for a while.
Looking at her flustered look, the embarrassment is all written between her eyebrows, and you don't have to guess to know the reason.
The night wind blew a lot, Wen Bailing coughed more seriously than before, and only after coughing did he speak: "Open a room in a nearby hotel?" ”
Tang Qi raised his head sharply and looked at Wen Bailing.
Wen Bailing raised her eyebrows: "It's just that I suggest you find a place to rest, you can't stay downstairs all the time, right?" ”
In fact, Tang Qi didn't think badly about people, she was just secretly blaming herself.
Blame yourself for being confused tonight, everything is absent-minded, and you don't have a good time.
It's not impossible to go to the hotel to open a room, and there are seniors who are preparing for the exam before who are noisy in the dormitory, and they book a hotel nearby to review all night.
But that's all in better family conditions.
The hotel near the school is not cheap, and Tang Qi is worried about the money and is a little reluctant.
But things are already like this, it is useless to regret them, people always have to pay for their own negligence and mistakes.
I don't know where there are stray cats fighting in a dark corner, and the sound of sharp confrontations in the middle of the night breaks through the peace.
The wind was a little cooler, and the branches made a soft noise.
Tang Qi wrapped his sweater and jacket tightly, took out his mobile phone, and went to look through the hotel information of the group buying software.
Even the express hotel with a rating of more than 4 points costs more than 350 yuan, and it even says "the room type is sold out", and then flip down, there are many hotels, and the room prices are more than 500 or 600......
Tang Qi lacked the strength of wealth, and was still hesitating, when he was suddenly pulled into the car by Wen Bailing.
His own voice was hoarse as if sandpaper had been polished, but he was quite considerate of her: "Get in the car and find a way." This is a tuyere, don't blow you to a cold. To be honest, fever is not very pleasant. ”
This car is not a luxury type, the back row is so big, Wen Bailing only needs to glance at her mobile phone screen twice, and she knows what Tang Qi is hesitating.
"There is a hotel chain nearby, which is owned by a distant relative of mine. A few years ago, I was given a card when it opened, and there was money in it and I couldn't cash out, and it was a waste to keep it, so I'll help you set the room. ”
Tang Qi shook his head and refused to accept it.
Wen Bailing sat beside her, and asked her patiently, what else, or you sleep in the car for a while, and I will help you guard it?
Later that day, Tang Qi still followed Wen Bailing to the hotel, she had not taken a driver's license, and there was no way to share the burden for the patient, and he drove the car with a high fever.
On the way, when Tang Qi and his roommate sent a message to report the situation, they heard Wen Bailing answer a phone call through the speaker, and the voice over there was a little familiar, like Fei Yuzhi.
Fei Yuzhi asked on the phone: "I've already started boarding the plane here, what about you?" ”
Wen Bailing said that she was not feeling well, did not go to the airport, and planned to rest for one night, and the ticket was changed to tomorrow and then departed.
"You go over first, I told my brother, someone over there will pick you up and take you to my residence."
The voice of the flight attendant's sister was faintly heard on the mobile phone, and Fei Yuzhi was still chattering and complaining: "Then why didn't you say it in advance, I said that I could wait for you to fly together tomorrow......"
It may be that the other party has been verbose for too long, Wen Bailing cleared her throat: "Don't be poor, I don't want to speak because my throat hurts." ”
He said that he didn't want to talk, and after hanging up the phone, he still didn't let the car be too quiet, and occasionally said a few words to Tang Qi.
Wen Bailing said that Fei Yuzhi's "running away from home" was not over yet, and it was simply relied on him, and when he heard that he was going abroad, he simply bought a ticket to follow, and he couldn't get rid of it.
After arriving at the hotel, Wen Bailing went to open a room, two.
There are not many rooms left at this time, and they are not on the same floor.
Wen Bailing handed the room card on the lower floor to Tang Qi in the elevator, and when the elevator arrived, she said "good night" to her, which was a farewell.
Wen Bailing has done it to this extent, and Tang Ji has not been sealed by cement, so it is impossible not to be touched at all, and his thinking is a little more confused.
The hotel room was spacious, even a work desk.
On the wooden tabletop are the hotel's brochures, opinion books, and menus for room service.
Tang Qi sat down, flipped through the menu, and found that there was beef porridge to order, 78 yuan a piece.
But for Wen Bailing, this price is definitely not expensive.
She didn't actually think about what to do next, and after hesitating, she still picked up her phone and dialed him.
The other side picked up quickly and asked her, "What's wrong?" ”
"Wen Bailing, I just saw that there is porridge on the menu to order, do you want to drink some porridge and take medicine?"
"Are you concerned about me?"
These words should have been ambiguous.
But Tang Ji solemnly held up his mobile phone and explained to others the importance of paying attention to physical health: "In the past, when my father was sick, everyone thought it was a small problem, and I didn't see a doctor seriously or take medicine, and it was already very serious when I found it later." It's better for you to pay attention. ”
The person on the phone was silent for a few seconds, as if he was a little helpless: "I know, call now to order porridge." ”
Tang Qi had a lot of worries and didn't sleep well.
She had already gotten up at less than five o'clock in the morning, took a shower, packed up her belongings, and then sat at her desk and edited the information for Wen Bailing.
She was very polite between the lines-
said that he was six in the morning and was going to check out and go back to school. Thank you very much for his help yesterday in sending him the bank card number and transferring the hotel money to him.
The text message was sent, Tang Qi changed his shoes, pulled out the card and went out, opened the door only to see Wen Bailing waiting in the corridor.
Tang Qi was taken aback: "...... Why do you wake up so early? ”
After asking, I remembered that he said in the car last night that he had changed to today's morning flight.
Calculate the time, and it's time to get ready to go.
But he replied, "Come and block them." ”
Wen Bailing should have really taken the medicine, and her fever has subsided, and she doesn't look like she was as depressed as last night.
He didn't know where he got a change of clothes, the whole person was refreshed, there was no smile on his face, it was very similar to the time when he often met in the elevator, but he didn't know each other, indifferent, and not easy to approach.
In fact, when Tang Qi said that she was not angry last night, Wen Bailing had already understood the extraneous sound.
He looked at her: "Tang Qi, you want to draw a line with me, right?" ”
Tang Qi didn't speak for a long time.
Is this really what she wants?
Does she really want Wen Bailing to disappear from her life forever?
"If you don't speak, I'll treat you as if you haven't thought about it yet."
At this point, Wen Bailing smiled a little: "Then I hope you will hesitate a little longer, and wait for me to get over there, and then call to confirm the answer?" ”
