I was a little stunned by Xiyue's sudden words, so I didn't answer for a while.

In my silence, Xiyue smiled again and said, "Look, you just said that a man likes me, so are you a man?" ”

"I... I ...... this," I stammered and said, "I like it, I must like it, but that's different." ”

"What's the difference?"

"Different is different, don't talk too far, now I'm saying that Xie Dongqing likes you, you give a reaction."

"I'll tell him later, you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay." Since she said so, then I don't need to say anything more.

In silence, she suddenly asked me again, "By the way, where are your parents?" Why haven't I seen them for the past two days. ”

"My mother went to Chengdu for treatment."

Xiyue frowned, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of illness?" ”

"What is it called an aneurysm, I have to have surgery."

"Then why didn't you go over there?"

I said helplessly: "I have to go to work, I want to make money, and the cost of this operation will be one or two hundred thousand." ”

"Is money or people important?"

"Of course, people are important, but there is no surgery yet, and I am wasting time over there, and I will go over when the operation comes."

"When is the surgery?" She asked again.

"I don't know, my dad said there should be news tomorrow."

Xiyue was silent for a while and said, "Tell me if you have news, I'll go to Chengdu with you." ”

"Why?"

"Your parents are good to me, and they've been taking good care of me since I moved here."

"Oh, okay."

She nodded, then asked, "Is that serious illness?" Is surgery risky? ”

"It's a bit serious, mainly because the tumor is in the head, and it requires a craniotomy, and the risk of surgery is relatively large."

Xi Yue's expression suddenly became a little anxious, and she was silent for a while before she said, "It'll be fine, your mother is very good, and good people have good rewards." ”

"Hehe, borrow your auspicious words."

Then we were relatively silent.

In silence, only the sound of the TV in the quiet room made me feel that time had not stood still.

I don't know what to talk about, but I feel that she doesn't seem to be as cold and arrogant to me as before, in fact, Xiyue is quite approachable and easy-going.

At this time, a joke was playing on the TV.

(Xiao Ming asked his mother for two yuan.)

His mother said, "What did you do with the money you gave yesterday?" ”

Xiao Ming replied, "I gave it to a poor old woman. ”

His mother touched his head and said proudly, "You're such a good boy, I'll give you two more dollars." But why are you so interested in that old lady? ”

"She's a candy seller." After Xiao Ming finished speaking, he took the money and ran away. ）

Hearing this joke, Xiyue and I both laughed together.

It was one of the few times I saw her smile, and she smiled so beautifully that her eyes were crescent-shaped.

When she noticed that I was looking at her, she immediately suppressed her smile and looked away.

I said to her, "Someone told you you you look good when you smile?" ”

"I don't like to laugh."

"Why?"

"If you don't laugh, you don't laugh, and there's no why."

"Born not to laugh or what happened to make you like this?"

She glanced at me, as if she didn't want to continue this boring topic with me.

I didn't insist on asking any more.

After another brief silence, I was bored and began to haunt me again, and suddenly remembered an interesting story from my school days, so I shared with her: "I'll tell you a joke, and if you laugh and share your story with me, how about it?" ”

"I don't have a story."

"Then I'll ask you a random question, and you can answer me honestly, right?"

"Why should I listen to you?" This woman's train of thought is sometimes really incomprehensible.

I smiled helplessly and said, "Didn't you say you don't like to laugh, let's make a bet." ”

She looked at me, hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Say it." ”

Seeing her like this, she should be ready, I guess no matter what I say, she won't laugh.

Of course, I didn't care if she laughed or not, I just wanted to find a topic that wouldn't be embarrassing.

"I had an exam in elementary school, and we had to sneak a calculator with us, the kind of watch that wasn't easy to find. But I couldn't afford it, so I took the previous kind of 'Big Mac', so forget it, and finally took advantage of the teacher's inattention to take it out and use it, but the thing still had a sound, and the whole exam room echoed with a sentence: Zero, beep, beep, zero......"

I thought she was in control and she wouldn't laugh no matter how funny the joke I was telling me.

But when I finished speaking, she laughed out loud, but quickly bit her lip to prevent herself from laughing.

I pointed at her and said, "You're smiling!" Don't hold back, I hear you. ”

Xiyue didn't hold back any longer, smiled happily, and finally said to me: "You must have been a bad student when you went to school. ”

"When I was in elementary school and junior high school, I was indeed half-baked, but since I went to high school, with Xie Dongqing tutoring me, the results are really gratifying."

"So, Xie Dongqing is still a noble person in your life?"

I nodded and said, "Sure, we played and played at that time, and the results really didn't fall behind." ”

"You have a good relationship with him?"

Xiyue took a sip of water and changed her sitting position, she didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.

I was quite tired and wanted to rest early, but since she was willing to continue to talk to me, let's talk.

I nodded and replied, "Okay, good, but ......"

I paused before adding, "Ever since that incident, I've always felt a little bit at home with him. ”

"Have you ever had a disagreement?"

"Well, do you want to hear it?"

"If you want to say it, I'll listen."

Maybe I was interested, so I told Xiyue about what happened between me and Xie Dongqing three years ago.

Xiyue listened very carefully, and didn't interject until she spoke after listening to me: "I don't think anything like that should happen in your relationship!" For a woman, is it worth it? ”

"It's worth it only she knows, because I don't have anything to do with that woman, but he mistakenly thinks I have something to do with that woman."

"Maybe you were at odds before that."

Xi Yue really woke up the dreamer with a word, think about it carefully, maybe she was right.

In my silence, she smiled faintly and said, "Actually, I envy your friendship, I haven't had it." ”

"Do you have any friends?"

"Yes, but not in that relationship like yours."

"That's normal, few people have such a relationship between me and Xie Dongqing."

"But I think you have a better relationship with the girl in the bar that day."

I nodded undeniably and replied: "How can I say it, in fact, I can't use friendship for Tian Jie anymore, I already regard her as my sister in my heart." ”

She nodded, then fell silent again.

I had no choice but to smile and say, "You laughed just now, I asked you a question, and you have to answer me truthfully." ”

"Say it." She said cheerfully.
