After Escaping Marriage [GL] - Chapter 95
“You know I like you, right?”
A drop of water on the flower branch trembled and fell to the ground.
Yu Qingtang’s wet fingers paused in the air for half a second, and inserted the lily into the mouth of the glass bottle. The green branches surrounded by the white and elegant buds complemented each other.
Yu Qingtang was fascinated by the newly completed flower arrangement.
Cheng Zhanxi waited patiently for a while, and heard her reply in a low voice, “Yeah.”
But Yu Qingtang never turned to look at her.
Cheng Zhanxi took two tissues from the table, slowly wiped the water off her fingers, and asked softly, “You like me too, don’t you?”
After a few more minutes, Yu Qingtang replied, “Yes.”
Cheng Zhanxi gently supported her shoulders and slowly turned her around to face him.
Yu Qingtang’s eyes were empty, and his expression was neither sad nor happy.
Cheng Zhanxi’s heart felt like a big stone was pressed against her, she exhaled softly, her thumb stroked Yu Qingtang’s icy cheek, and she slowly hugged her, letting her face rest on her shoulder, her fingers running softly along her Long black hair.
She lowered her head and kissed Yu Qingtang’s forehead.
After that, the eyebrows, the tip of the nose, and finally her lips were printed lovingly.
Yu Qingtang’s heart rose and fell, like a puppet that finally had breathing and body temperature.
She closed her eyes and accepted all the gifts from Cheng Zhanxi obediently.
Cheng Zhanxi held her face and kissed her. At a certain moment, his fingertips touched the wet corners of her eyes, and his heart was twisted like a knife.
Why? Is her love a heavy burden for her?
Cheng Zhanxi will guess when she should guess, and Cheng Zhanxi will not think wildly when she shouldn’t guess. Love for her was meant to take the initiative to strive for. It was not easy for her to meet such a person.
Cheng Zhanxi let go of her lips and asked in a soft voice, “Since we are in love with each other, would you like to be my girlfriend?”
A few hours later, she finally spoke her confession.
“Be my girlfriend” is not much less impactful than the straightforward “I like you”, no matter how much Yu Qingtang dared not think about it, at this moment, her inner nerve was deeply affected. Countless voices scrambled in my heart to say I am willing, but reason made these voices fall into the dark abyss.
Yu Qingtang’s heart heaved violently a few times, his fingers clasped the edge of the marble coffee table, bluish white.
After a long time, she suppressed the inner excitement and calmed down, and asked gently, “Do you like me?” Cheng Zhanxi was firm and sincere: “Yes, I like you.”
She didn’t need to repeat the second half of the sentence, Yu Qingtang closed her eyes and asked, “What do you like about me?”
Couples in love often ask this question. Cheng Zhanxi didn’t expect to come so early, but she answered seriously without hesitation: “I like everything about you.”
Yu Qingtang looked at her calmly.
The moment she met Yu Qingtang’s eyes, Cheng Zhanxi knew that she didn’t believe it.
Cheng Zhanxi held her hand and said gently: “I may not be able to explain why I like you, but when I think of you, I will smile unconsciously. Even if there is nothing particularly gratifying to be with you, Will feel happy and sweet, and want to live like this day by day until the end of my life.”
Yu Qingtang’s eyes flashed with sparkling tears, and she still asked, “Why? Why don’t you like someone else?”
Cheng Zhanxi was stunned.
Why should she like someone else?
Cheng Zhanxi said, “Because no one else is you, can you understand that?” She clenched Yu Qingtang’s hand and said word by word, “I only like you.”
Yu Qingtang’s eyes filled with tears, and she choked: “But I’m not worth it.”
Cheng Zhanxi’s nose was sore, followed her with red eyes, distressed and surprised.
“Why do you have such thoughts?”
Yu Qingtang shook her head, tears falling out.
She is not worthy of Cheng Zhanxi, anyone is more suitable than her.
The person standing beside Cheng Zhanxi and standing shoulder to shoulder with her should not be her.
She is a mayfly, a mote of dust, a life and death, how can she be qualified to have a sun that never rises and never sets.
No matter how Cheng Zhanxi asked, Yu Qingtang just lowered her head and said nothing, her lips were bitten with blood, and her tears fell like beads with broken threads. She didn’t even dare to tell Cheng Zhanxi about such thoughts, for fear that it would be blasphemy to her.
Cheng Zhanxi wiped her tears with a tissue, but he couldn’t help shedding a few tears, and his eyes were red.
She freed Yu Qingtang’s lower lip from the tip of her teeth and wiped the blood from her lips with a clean cotton swab.
After a long silence.
Yu Qingtang lowered her eyelids, unable to see her eyes clearly, and said, “Have you ever thought that you don’t really like me?”
Cheng Zhanxi was dumbfounded.
Yu Qingtang continued: “You just pity me.”
Cheng Zhanxi’s heart heaved for a while, and she felt angry. She thought it was absurd.
Yu Qingtang continued: “And I did behave very pitifully in front of you. I was like this when I was a child, and it was like this when I grew up.”
Yu Qingtang thought to herself mockingly: Otherwise, what else would she like for Cheng Zhanxi?
When Yu Qingtang said this, he let out a sigh of relief as if he couldn’t bear it anymore, to ease his suppressed emotions, and said, “I’m not so pitiful anymore, you don’t need to… uh!”
Cheng Zhanxi blocked her mouth with a kiss.
The wind and rain-like kiss swept over, and Yu Qingtang shivered slightly from body to heart.
She was picked up by Cheng Zhanxi and pushed down on the sofa behind her, both of her wrists being held down and unable to move.
The kiss lasted for a long time. When it stopped, there were two pools of spring water in Yu Qingtang’s secluded eyes. The ends of her eyes were flushed, and her knuckles were bent. folded, like someone drowning holding her last board.
Cheng Zhanxi’s wet lips stopped under her ears, panting lowly: “Do you still think I pity you? Huh?”
Yu Qingtang was silent, not knowing what to think, and said, “You like my body.”
The air was still for two seconds.
Cheng Zhanxi fell down with her body supported above her, and buried her face in Yu Qingtang’s neck, laughing loudly.
She laughed enough, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked, “Then why do you think I like your body?”
Yu Qingtang didn’t answer.
Cheng Zhanxi sat up, took her hand and let her sit beside him.
“because I like you.”
Yu Qingtang thought of the night at the bar. At that time, they only met once, and Cheng Zhanxi slept with her. How could he like her?
Cheng Zhanxi seemed to know what she was thinking, and said, “I fell in love with you before the bar.”
Yu Qingtang raised her eyes and looked at her.
Cheng Zhanxi pinched her slender fingers and said, “We avoided the rain at the convenience store together, and I fell in love with you at first sight. Later, I met at the bar for the second time, and I went to strike up a conversation because I wanted to get to know you, but I didn’t expect that. You are blind and don’t remember me; the third time you caught a thief, you crashed into my arms.”
Yu Qingtang remembered that time, she didn’t see Cheng Zhanxi’s face, but later recognized her from the scent on her body.
Cheng Zhanxi took her hand over and put it on his lap, put his palm on the back of her hand, and said softly: “After the third meeting, I was thinking, this is a fate given to us by God, and I can’t miss it. So I came to No. 1 Middle School as a teacher, taught the same class as you, and sat in the same office.”
Facing Yu Qingtang’s stunned gaze, Cheng Zhanxi smiled and said, “On the way to Xiao Qing’s house, didn’t you ask me why I want to be a teacher?”
——First of all, I like the city of Sicheng very much. It has a strong artistic atmosphere, and I also like the architectural style here. The old city and new districts have their own characteristics, and the pace of life is slow, which is suitable for long-term living.
——Secondly, I love education.
——And the most important point, I will tell you later.
Yu Qingtang looked at her blankly.
Reason told her that Cheng Zhanxi should be interrupted, but emotion finally got the upper hand.
She looked into Cheng Zhanxi’s eyes, and Cheng Zhanxi also looked into her eyes, without the slightest joke in her eyes, and said very seriously, “for you.”
The string in Yu Qingtang’s mind was buzzing, and she couldn’t hear anything, only Cheng Zhanxi’s words came clearly into her ears.
“I became a teacher for you, moved across from your house for you, stayed in Sicheng for you, and came back for you.” Cheng Zhanxi’s confession was hotter and more direct, she took Yu Qingtang’s hand He turned over and intertwined his fingers with her, and said gently and gently, “So, can’t it prove that I like you?”
Yu Qingtang’s ears were buzzing, and her mind went blank.
“But……”
“But what?”
Yu Qingtang’s mind has stopped thinking now, “but” for a long time, she can’t give any words at all, her expression is dazed.
Cheng Zhanxi’s eyes darkened, and he couldn’t help raising his hand and clasping the back of her head to kiss her. When Yu Qingtang was confused, he was softer than when she was obedient before, and he instinctively responded to her occasionally jerky.
Cheng Zhanxi carried her to his lap, wrapped her waist, raised his head and kissed her more deeply.
Yu Qingtang was dizzy and light for ten minutes before he slowly remembered what the two of them had just said.
She pushed Cheng Zhanxi’s shoulders away, and asked her breathlessly between her lips, “What do you like about me?”
Cheng Zhanxi touched her forehead and was panting quickly: “Didn’t I answer it just now?”
“You said you fell in love with me at first sight.” Yu Qingtang said the last four words in a voice that was barely audible, with a suspicious blush on his cheeks, and asked in a low voice, “What did you like about me at that time?”
“Well, a wonderful feeling.”
Many people say that falling in love at first sight is a matter of seeing one’s appearance. Cheng Zhanxi does not deny that there is a reason for beauty, but it is by no means the main reason for her. She has traveled so many places and seen so many people, Yu Qingtang is not the most beautiful woman she has ever seen. Besides, she looks good by herself, she likes to look in the mirror every day if she likes a good-looking person, and she doesn’t need to spend a lot of time chasing others.
“How do you feel?”
Cheng Zhanxi thought about it and said, “At that time, a voice told me in my heart: This person will be your girlfriend in the future.”
Yu Qingtang laughed, and the next second she took it back and straightened the corners of her lips.
Cheng Zhanxi must be lying to her. She said before that she decided to chase after her after meeting three times, and she was glib.
But Yu Qingtang listened to her sweet words, and her brain began to faint again, and her reason was unable to go online for a long time.
Cheng Zhanxi’s subsequent kiss made her even more dizzy.
Why does Cheng Zhanxi like to kiss her so much?
Yu Qingtang thought so before completely losing his mind.
Cheng Zhanxi didn’t know why, but she couldn’t kiss enough, she was deeply infatuated with Yu Qingtang’s reaction and voice, and wished she could turn into a pool of water and melt in her arms.
Later, Yu Qingtang really turned into a pool of water, her limbs were weak, she fell softly into her arms, and whispered and begged for mercy: “No more…”
Cheng Zhanxi poured her a glass of water, put it in her hands, unfolded the thin blanket on the sofa, and wrapped it around her.
She herself sat down on the other sofa, lest she lash out again.
Cheng Zhanxi cleared his throat and used the cold back of his hand to cool his cheeks. Even though she was always leading, her heart was beating so fast, her cheeks and ears were flushed, and there was still heat in her neck.
The back of his hand was covered by his face for a while, so Cheng Zhanxi simply went to the refrigerator and got an ice pack.
Yu Qingtang held the water cup in both hands, and while drinking the water, she rolled her jet-black eyes, watching her walk around the living room.
Cheng Zhanxi looked at her and smiled, bright and brilliant.
Yu Qingtang lowered her eyes and her ears became even hotter.
Things are always different from what she thought.
After Yu Qingtang drank a glass of water, her mind that had been kissed all over the place finally began to recover initially, but she thought very slowly, and her reaction was also very slow.
Cheng Zhanxi went to insert the remaining flowers on the coffee table, so as not to disturb her to think about things slowly.
She fiddled with several vases, leaving two of the best looking ones for Yu Qingtang to bring back to the opposite side tonight.
Although she really wanted to keep Yu Qingtang down for the night, it was obviously impossible. It’s a long time coming to Japan, and it’s not uncommon for her to spend the night at Yu Qingtang’s house in the future.
Yu Qingtang put the empty water glass on the coffee table.
The bottom of the cup touched the marble table and made a slight bump. Cheng Zhanxi heard the sound and looked over. Yu Qingtang’s two knuckles were intertwined in front of him, so hard that they turned white, and her thin lips were tightly pursed.
Cheng Zhanxi frowned: “Doesn’t it hurt?”
Yu Qingtang: “Huh?”
Cheng Zhanxi: “finger, doesn’t it hurt to pinch?”
Yu Qingtang was stunned for a moment and said, “It’s okay.” Cheng Zhanxi frowned deeper: “I don’t allow it.”
Yu Qingtang let go of his hand obediently.
Cheng Zhanxi brought her a soft pillow and said warmly, “Pinch this.”
Yu Qingtang obediently hugged the pillow in her arms, but her knuckles tried to squeeze but couldn’t.
– I don’t allow it.
Yu Qingtang recalled Cheng Zhanxi’s expression and tone just now, turned his face to a direction that Cheng Zhanxi could not see, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
Half of what she was thinking about was interrupted by sweetness, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously, she quietly turned her head, and glanced at Cheng Zhanxi from the corner of her eye.
Cheng Zhanxi is facing the vase on the coffee table, making the final adjustments. Her long and fair fingers are holding a dripping lisianthus, her expression is focused, and the light in the living room casts a soft halo on her, like a fairy, she can do everything into the painting.
Can she really keep such a person?
Yu Qingtang looked at it, her eyes dimmed a little.
She hugged the pillow tightly in her arms.
Cheng Zhanxi raised his eyes, and Yu Qingtang’s body trembled reflexively.
Cheng Zhanxi stood up, and Yu Qingtang hugged the pillow and shrank into the sofa.
Cheng Zhanxi: “…”
She sat down again, with a distance of two or three meters away from Yu Qingtang, wiped the water from her fingers with a tissue, and said with a smile, “Did you come up with any result? Will you agree to me? Girlfriend? Huh?”
Every time she said a word, Yu Qingtang’s heart trembled.
By the end of the last rising sound, Yu Qingtang’s bones softened, and he almost recklessly agreed to her.
She believes that Cheng Zhanxi will give her a perfect love experience and will make her the happiest person in the world in a short time. The essence of love is the product of dopamine secretion. After the passion recedes, what does she rely on to keep Cheng Zhanxi? A decent pair of skins? Will Cheng Zhanxi care?
Yu Qingtang pursed her lips and said nothing.
Cheng Zhanxi didn’t look surprised, blinked and said, “Then are you going to reject me?”
She tried her best to use a relaxed and playful tone to make this suggestion full of playfulness, but Yu Qingtang’s eyes still showed great sadness at the first time, and her eyes turned red immediately.
It seemed that just thinking about the possibility would break her heart.
Cheng Zhanxi felt the same, didn’t stop here, and then said, “Do you need time to think about it?”
Yu Qingtang’s suffocated heart got a little room to breathe, and nodded.
In her twenty-eight years of life, she has been accepting other people’s arrangements and walking on a path decided by others. The instinctive reaction to encountering things is to maintain the status quo and resist all unstable factors, so she is afraid of Cheng Zhanxi’s confession, afraid that the relationship between them will change, that such changes will bring bad consequences, and that she will Lose Cheng Zhanxi, even if she has already fallen in love with each other.
She doesn’t want variables between them, but the relationship has already occurred. She can’t hide her ears and steal bells all her life, and Cheng Zhanxi won’t let her pretend to be stupid forever. It’s time for her to make a choice for her life.
Yu Qingtang lowered her head, and the pillow in her arms was deformed.
“How long do you give me to think about?”
“Is there enough time in a lifetime?” The woman’s gentle voice sounded.
Yu Qingtang raised her head with an unbelievable expression.
Cheng Zhanxi looked soft: “I don’t want you to force yourself, I can wait for you for a long time, longer than you think.” She didn’t say more, got up and said, “It’s getting late, it’s time to take a shower and go to bed. Now, are you sleeping with me or going back to the other side?”
“I… go back to the other side.”
Cheng Zhanxi’s expression flashed with a hint of regret.
Although I guessed it, it’s a pity that I can’t share the bed.
Cheng Zhanxi sent Yu Qingtang back to 2101.
At the door of 2101, Yu Qingtang stood at the entrance, took the two vases handed over by Cheng Zhanxi, and placed them in the entrance cabinet.
Yu Qingtang looked at her and hesitated.
“Um?”
Yu Qingtang bit her lip.
Cheng Zhanxi’s mind flashed and he said, “Do you want to ask me what I like about you?”
Yu Qingtang was a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and nodded.
Cheng Zhanxi smiled and said, “I like the way you want to ask me what I like about you, but I can’t say it.”
Yu Qingtang’s eyes widened slightly, and the heat continued to rise on her cheeks.
Cheng Zhanxi raised her empty hand, held the back of Yu Qingtang’s head, and touched her forehead. The tip of her nose rubbed the tip of the woman’s Xiuqiao nose intimately, and judoed softly: “Baby, you have to believe that you are fine, you are worthy of being loved.”
bang——
2101’s door closed.
Cheng Zhanxi was blown away by the wind and closed his eyes. There was no trace of his sweetheart in front of him, only the dark brown door remained.
Cheng Zhanxi rubbed his nose with the back of his finger, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Didn’t she just say a love story? Yu Qingtang was so shy.
Yu Qingtang pressed her back against the door, her earlobes were congested and turned red, and her heart was beating wildly.
Behind him, Cheng Zhanxi’s voice came through the door.
“I’m going back to sleep, good night.”
Yu Qingtang didn’t even think about it, turned around and held the doorknob.
Cheng Zhanxi just took a few steps when the door opened again.
She turned around and saw Yu Qingtang with a big red face, and said with a smile, “Good night.” Yu Qingtang stood in the hallway, the lights were turned on, and her facial features were beautiful.
“Good night.”
Cheng Zhanxi looked at her carefully and earnestly for a while, and said softly, “Close the door, I’m going back.”
“Okay.”
Yu Qingtang kept watching Cheng Zhanxi walk into the opposite side, and Fang closed the door again.
She put the vase in the living room and the dining table, and pulled out a dining chair to sit down.
After leaving Cheng Zhanxi’s house and leaving the pink bubbles made by the other party that would make her feel dizzy anytime and anywhere, Yu Qingtang really calmed down and freed her mind to think about things.
Cheng Zhanxi said that he liked her and fell in love with her at first sight. After that, all his actions were because of her.
No one likes her since childhood, no one cares about her, but someone as unattainable as Cheng Zhanxi likes her, is it possible?
like her? Don’t like her? is sympathy? Not sympathy?
When she came back to her senses, a bunch of rose petals were scattered on the table by her hand, and when she looked at the flower arrangement in the bottle, only the bare stems remained.
Yu Qingtang: “!!!”
Looking at the scattered petals, Yu Qingtang fell into a long silence.
She searched the Internet for how to make petal bookmarks, and then found the textbook from last semester. In the order of one layer of tissue paper, one layer of petals, and one layer of tissue paper, she sandwiched the petals between the books and pressed them into the bookshelf.
The accidental withering of the petals interrupted Yu Qingtang’s thoughts. She went back to the bedroom to get the pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, I stopped by the mirror on the sink.
Yu Qingtang carefully observed her face in the mirror, as if her thin eyebrows were drawn with charcoal pen, her eyes were like autumn water, she was quite clear and energetic, the bridge of her nose was not particularly straight, but she was more delicate and delicate, her lips were thin, showing a natural look. Light pink, Cheng Zhanxi likes to kiss her so much, it should be very soft and kissable.
The skin is white, although there is no blood, but it is too white to pick out any flaws.
It seems… barely able to match Cheng Zhanxi in appearance.
But it seems to be only the appearance.
Yu Qingtang put on her clothes again in front of the full-length mirror in the bedroom, and was a little discouraged.
Cheng Zhanxi likes his body, and it is estimated that he also added the love at first sight filter.
What does she like about herself?
Yu Qingtang bit her lower lip and thought, she went to the doctor in a hurry, and asked where Wen Zhihan was.
【what do you like about me? 】
Wen Zhihan was silent for a moment, then typed: [Cheng Zhanxi confessed to you? 】
Yu Qingtang wondered: [How do you know? 】
Wen Zhihan: [Guess, don’t ask in detail, ask is to sprinkle salt on the wound]
Yu Qingtang didn’t ask any more questions. She made a lot of determination before sending the message, but she really had no one to help her.
Wen Zhihan: [I like you because of curiosity, you probably don’t know, you have a desire to be explored, and she probably does too]
Yu Qingtang: [She said she fell in love with me at first sight, and we avoided the rain together at the convenience store last March]
Wen Zhihan opened his eyes in disbelief, is Yu Qingtang showing her affection openly and honestly?
Is this still the Yu Qingtang she knew? Or Cheng Zhanxi has developed her unknown side.
[System message: Yu Qingtang withdrew a message]
A second before the withdrawal, Wen Zhihan: [Damn]
[System message: Wen Zhihan withdrew a message]
The two agreed that nothing happened.
Wen Zhihan: [Since she has confessed, why don’t you stay with her? You obviously like her too]
Wen Zhihan took the milk at hand and drank it. She felt that being a rival in love could do this, and Cheng Zhanxi would have to invite her to a big meal next time. But she really didn’t want to see that skinless, shameless, lip-smacking naive ghost, who would lose at least a year of life once she saw it.
Yu Qingtang: [How do you know that I’m not with her? 】
Wen Zhihan: [How can she give you the opportunity to ask me when they are together? 】
Yu Qingtang felt a strange feeling in her heart, bubbling sourly: [You know her very well? 】
Wen Zhihan: [Are you jealous? 】
Wen Zhihan laughed into the phone.
It’s obviously a movie for two people, why did you bring her in suddenly? She is no longer waiting.
Wen Zhihan typed: [I have talked a few words, but I don’t know much about it, I will go abroad right away, so I don’t need to eat my vinegar]
Yu Qingtang immediately apologized.
Wen Zhihan said it didn’t matter, she sighed and acted as her confidant sister: [So why didn’t you stay with her? 】
The upper part of the screen displayed “the other party is typing”, which was intermittent for a long time, showing the hesitation of the other party. Wen Zhihan got up to wash the milk cup and came back, and saw a line of sad text lying quietly on the chat interface.
【I don’t deserve her】
Wen Zhihan crossed his fingers and placed them on his chin, his expression solemn.
According to her idea, this is impossible. She never thought that Yu Qingtang would have low self-esteem. She is a loner, a **** of learning, and the best of the best. Even in Jinghua University, she is an existence that most people can’t compare to. Before graduating with a master’s degree, she had already received an offer from the top 10 universities in the world. If she hadn’t insisted on returning to Sicheng to be a teacher, she should now be doing research in a foreign research institute with a group of like-minded doctors.
This is why Wen Zhihan wanted to persuade her to leave Sicheng, even spending half a year with her. With Yu Qingtang’s ability, he was only a talent in this small place.
She actually felt inferior in front of Cheng Zhanxi, maybe it was the power of love. Wen Zhihan realized more clearly every time that she had never had a chance from beginning to end.
Wen Zhihan tugged at the corner of his lips mockingly.
After a long time, Wen Zhihan picked up the phone and replied seriously:
[If you feel that you are not worthy of her, what are my seven years? 】
The other side was “typing” for a while, but didn’t reply.
Wen Zhihan selected the chat record between himself and Yu Qingtang and forwarded it to Cheng Zhanxi, who was lying in the column.
When Cheng Zhanxi first came to school, the two added friends out of politeness. Wen Zhihan never deleted it, but he never sent a message.
Only Cheng Zhanxi can solve Yu Qingtang’s problem. She is a former rival in love who is out, so she won’t join in the fun.
As soon as the message was sent, a striking red exclamation mark appeared next to it, and the message was rejected.
Wen Zhihan: “?”
[System prompt: CZX has opened friend verification, you are not his (her) friend, please send a friend verification request first, and the other party can only chat after the verification is passed. Click to send friend verification]
Wen Zhihan frowned.
What?
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Cheng Chengzi: Hello rival in love, guess when I deleted you? (//▽//)
Wen Zhihan: As long as you don’t delete me, I will send you an assist [smile.jpg]
Yu Tangtang has a lot of unexplored places, even so, she herself is very good. Cheng Chengzi’s eyes and pearls will be blessed in the future, especially…you can do it with peace of mind (//▽//)
