Cold Beauty Fell in Love with Me - C105 Give me a cigarette

I felt a sudden urge to smoke and felt for my cigarette case and lighter, but decided it was a closed sleeper, so I gave up.

Just as he was about to put the cigarette box back in his pocket, Qiu Tong suddenly said: “Yi Ke, I want to smoke.”

I was a little surprised and looked at Qiu Tong. “You want to smoke? “What?”

“Nothing, I just want a cigarette. What?” “Not giving?” Qiu Tong said indifferently, his eyes suddenly showing signs of arrogance, and a trace of wildness.

This is the first time I have seen this kind of thing in Qiu Tong’s eyes, and I couldn’t help but feel some excitement and novelty.

“Here —” I handed Qiu Tong the cigarette case and lighter.

Qiu Tong took it and pulled out a cigarette. Just as she was about to light it up, she suddenly stopped, looked at the door and said: “Go and push the door open!”

Qiu Tong’s tone of voice carried a commanding tone. I don’t know why, but I didn’t feel the slightest bit unwell. I even felt honored to go and push on the door obediently.

When I returned, Qiu Tong had already lit up his cigarette and started smoking. A wisp of green smoke rose in front of her, and behind the smoke was Qiu Tong’s cold and sentimental face.

Looking at Qiu Tong’s expression, I felt my heart ache. I was extremely regretful that I didn’t leave her that message.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it.

After a while, Qiu Tong spoke with a calm voice. “Yi Ke, you are surprised that I am able to say these words to you, right?”

I was not surprised, of course, but I nodded anyway. “Yes, very! What happened to you? ”

“Me?” Qiu Tong laughed, concealing her smile, “No, it’s just that a friend of mine had met with some troubles, I suddenly recalled something just now and had some feelings for you, so I wanted to communicate with you.”

Obviously, Qiu Tong was lying, but I couldn’t expose her lies now, so I nodded my head: “autumnum is a very thoughtful person, I am deeply touched.”

Qiu Tong smiled: “Yi Ke, don’t tell me you didn’t think that what you said just now was worth reflecting on? I think you’re a thinking person. ”

My heart skipped a beat as I tried my best to smile, “How could I have any thoughts? I was just spouting nonsense just now, autumnum is too kind!”

Qiu Tong did not bother with my words. She took a light puff on her cigarette and continued: “Yi Ke, your words just now reminded me of a friend of mine. Your way of thinking is a bit similar to his. ”

My brain went blank for a moment before I forced a smile. What does your friend do? ”

“My friend …” Qiu Tong muttered: “That friend of mine is a manager of a company, an outstanding marketing expert. He is not only insightful about marketing, but he also has a lot of deep thinking about life, a realist ideal with romantic feelings. ”

This is the first time I’ve heard Qiu Tong’s evaluation of a foreign visitor from that world. My heart couldn’t help but be a little excited, and I felt overwhelmed by the unexpected favor: “Is he really that outstanding?”

“Of course.” Qiu Tong seemed to be slightly displeased with my question, she looked at me, and said intoxicatedly, “He is an extremely outstanding person, at least in my eyes, although he is not at the moment at the glory point of his life, but I believe that one day, he will make everyone around look up to him.”

Qiu Tong’s voice unconsciously revealed a little pride.

I was growing more and more excited, more and more honored. I blurted out, “Where is that friend of yours?”

“Mingzhou of Zhejiang!” Qiu Tong said.

“Just like me, he’s also from the south!” “No,” I said.

Qiu Tong looked at me, and felt that I was comparing myself to him, and that I couldn’t compare to him, so she said: “You are from Yunnan, and he is from Zhejiang, you are thousands of miles away.”

I didn’t know if Qiu Tong’s words had another meaning, it wasn’t just that his position was hundreds of thousands of miles away from mine, it also included ability and quality.

I don’t know whether or not working together with Qiu Tong in the future would allow Qiu Tong to see that I was more similar to this stranger after this exchange. Although I tried my best to avoid this kind of situation from happening, I am, after all, the same person as this stranger, so it’s hard to avoid showing signs of it sometimes.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to do perfectly in this area in the future. I know that in front of the intelligent and astute Qiu Tong, even the slightest bit of carelessness will cause me to fall back to my original form.

Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but feel a little worried. I secretly reminded myself that I should pay more attention to this matter in the future and place great importance on it from the perspective of my thoughts.

After finishing the wine, eating, and smoking, I cleaned up the mess around us and then went out to empty the trash. Qiu Tong stood up shakily and walked to the other side of the carriage as well, probably to go to the bathroom.

The train we’re on is green leather, the oldest and simplest kind of train in China right now. I’d like to see the other cars after I dump the garbage.

When they got out of the soft sleeper carriage, they felt a chill in their face. Other than the soft sleeper carriage, there was no heating in the other cars, and the hard seat carriage in front was full of people. The aisle was filled with people, and the luggage rack was filled with large and small bags.

Looking at the passengers’ attire, the majority of them were laborers returning home from work. Many of them were old felt hats and friends. There were even children in their arms.

Life is hard, I said, and came back.

Not long after returning to the carriage, Qiu Tong returned with a woman carrying a child.

“Come on, sister-in-law, come in!” Qiu Tong came in first, then turned her head and enthusiastically greeted the woman who carried a bag in her arms and hugged the child that was sleeping soundly.

After the woman came in, Qiu Tong said to me, “I just went to the bathroom, at the junction point between the soft sleeper and hard sleeper, and saw this sister-in-law sitting on the ground with her child. It was very cold outside, and both sister-in-law and the child were shivering from cold, so I called them over —”

So that’s how it is, I hurriedly stood up and helped sister-in-law to take the child in her arms while Qiu Tong helped her to remove the bundle.

Qiu Tong pointed to the top bunk and said to his sister-in-law, “Sister-in-law, there’s no one on these two beds. You and your child can sleep on them.”

The eldest sister-in-law timidly said, “Sister, how can this make it so that I can’t purchase a hard seat and a standing ticket. This is a soft sleeper, and I can’t afford to pay this ticket.”

Qiu Tong took the child from my arms and said seriously to his sister-in-law: “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. My two friends bought the tickets for this bed, they didn’t come back when they had something to do, so they left. It’s a waste for it to be empty anyway. Here’s the ticket. I have it in my hand. ”

The elder sister-in-law looked at Qiu Tong and I and said gratefully, “Sigh, thank you very much. Actually, I am not afraid of the cold. Sisters, brothers, you really are good people. ”

I looked at Qiu Tong, she actually had a face full of shame, she pursed her lips and did not say anything further, but hurried to help my sister-in-law up. She also settled the child who was still sleeping soundly on the other bed, covered her with a blanket, and carefully tucked her under the blanket.

I also put my sister-in-law’s luggage on the luggage rack.

Perhaps Eldest Sis was very tired, so she quickly fell asleep.

Just then, Qiu Tong and I sat back down at a place far away from each other. Qiu Tong whispered to me, “Sigh … I’ve done something bad and I feel uneasy.

With that, Qiu Tong suddenly stuck her tongue out and laughed complacently.

Looking at Qiu Tong’s rarely seen childish smile, I couldn’t help but want to reach out and pinch her small and exquisite nose. But, I didn’t dare to think about doing it.

“Ahhh — go to sleep, Yuan Duo’s big brother!” Qiu Tong shut the carriage door, turned off the lights, returned to her bunk and laid down. She pulled up her blanket and muttered, “With Big bodyguard here, I can finally sleep in peace. “The wheels are rolling towards the prairie. Tomorrow, we will see the snow-covered prairie in the winter. Good night.”

“Good night, autumnum!” Although Qiu Tong is joking with me due to the alcohol, I don’t dare to be presumptuous.

Very quickly, Qiu Tong quieted down, as if she had fallen into a deep slumber.

I lay on the bed, thinking about my conversation with Qiu Tong tonight and couldn’t fall asleep for a long time.

I did not fall asleep until I passed by Shenyang Station.

In my dreams, I dreamed of Yuan Duo, of me and Yuan Duo riding our horses across the magnificent and beautiful prairie in the autumn sun, of Yuan Duo, who had asked me to stick flowers in her hair and ask me if she was beautiful. In my dreams, I vaguely heard Yuan Duo’s melodious and sweet singing …

Suddenly, I dreamt of Yuan Duo who was covered in blood and unconscious.

Suddenly, I opened my eyes.

When I opened my eyes, I was startled once again. Qiu Tong was sitting on a bunk opposite me, with his elbows on the tea table and his chin on his hands. He was staring at me with a thoughtful expression!

I immediately sat up and looked at Qiu Tong in a daze.

When did this girl wake up? How long has she been looking at me? Does she look at me like that? Studying me, who she couldn’t figure out? Or was he missing Ke Ke, who she cared about so much in the air?

Qiu Tong seemed to be shocked by my actions, as if shshedid not expect that I would suddenly wake up. Her entire body shivered, and she hurriedly shifted her gaze away, and then, as if nothing had happened, he lightly licked her lips and said: “Ahhh — It’s dawn, you’re awake, I’ve just woken up a few minutes ago.”

After he finished speaking, Qiu Tong took out his washing equipment and went out to wash his face and brush his teeth.

I sat there in a daze, looking out the window at the whole silver-clad world, all white, the snow still dancing in the sky, and the storm that had been going on all night seemed to have no sign of abating.

I got up and went to the line to wash up. I met a train attendant and asked him about it.

Returning back to the carriage, Qiu Tong had already gone to the dining car to buy breakfast, and was currently inviting the two siblings who were already awake to eat together.

Everyone started to chat as they ate. During the conversation, they found out that Big Sis was working with her husband at a clothing processing plant in Haizhou with her child. This time, she was bringing her child home to celebrate the new year.

Asked her husband why he didn’t go back for the new year, elder sister-in-law had a proud look on her face. Because her husband was usually very active, he was promoted by the boss to be the class monitor. This time, the boss picked a few people to be on duty during the holiday.

“Not everyone has such a chance and glory.” Sister-in-law said, “Firstly, it shows that the boss thinks highly of her. Secondly, she can pay three days’ salary a day. She can earn quite a bit of money.”
