Defeated By Love - Chapter 49

Because of the posture, Shunian is taller than sitting Xie Ruhe. The distance between the two narrowed in an instant. Her body was overwhelmed with his breath, and she could clearly feel the rhythm of his breathing.

The warm breath sprayed on her neck, itchy.

His face is clean and handsome, his narrow eyes are raised, and his eyelashes are curly and dense. His skin was white and thin, and he could faintly see the blue-purple bloodshot eyes, but he was no longer as sickly as before, a little more bloody.

Shunen looked at him for a few seconds.

The air seemed to stagnate.

He has a very shallow mint smell, mixed with the smell of Chinese medicine, like a scent, with bewitching. Shunen gradually tightened his fists and stayed there nervously.

Xie Ruhe’s eyes darkened, and his Adam’s apple slipped.

It seemed that there was an invisible force pulling them closer. Xie Ruhe’s grasp of her wrist gradually increased, looked at her quietly, and suddenly raised his head——

At the same time, Shunen’s cell phone rang aside.

“…”

Shunian recovered his mind, don’t open his head, and scrambled from him. She picked up the phone, with a trembling tail, and pretended to say calmly: “I’ll answer the call.”

Xie Ruhe froze, her temperature still seemed to remain in her hands. He pretended to be calm and hummed, then leaned back in his chair lazily.

Looking at the caller ID, Shunen answered the phone: “Mom?”

Deng Qingyu’s voice sounded on the other end: “Eh Niannian, are you going to work today?”

Upon hearing this, Shunen quietly glanced at Xie Ruhe: “What’s the matter?”

“I have nothing to do today. I plan to go over and clean up the house for you.” Deng Qingyu groaned, “Seeing that you usually run to the recording studio, so I don’t think there is much time to clean up. But the key to your house was taken by Xiaoxi today, he I was walking in a hurry today and got my set of keys.”

Shunen whispered: “It’s okay, you don’t use it.”

Deng Qingyu asked: “Are you not at home?”

Shunian secretly looked in Xie Ruhe’s direction again.

He lowered his head slightly, his chin closed, his lips straightened, and his expression was vague. The mood looked bad, and it seemed to bring some chagrin. Perhaps the indoor air is not circulating and the tips of the ears are red.

She retracted her gaze, a little empty: “Yeah.”

“All right.” Deng Qingyu said, “Then I will go over tomorrow. You should pay attention and remember to eat. The temperature has been repeated recently. Drink more hot water. Don’t get sick, you know?”

Shunen nodded: “Okay, you also have to take care of yourself.”

After hanging up the phone, Shunen silently put the phone on the coffee table.

The interrupted episode just now made the air a little awkward and stiff.

Shunen didn’t know what to say or what to do, so he picked up the cake in front of him and ate it. She gradually lost her mind, and inexplicably remembered what had just happened.

If Deng Qingyu hadn’t called that call, what kind of scene would it be like now…

She can’t imagine.

After a few seconds, Xie Ruhe sat up straight and poured her a glass of warm water.

As if there was a consensus, neither of them mentioned what had just happened, and they had a tacit understanding.

Xie Ruhe watched TV and broke the silence first: “Are you watching a movie?”

Shunian Wen Tun said: “Just open it casually, not watching.”

Xie Ruhe nodded.

There was silence again.

Shunian thinks that you have to come and go, he just talked about a topic, now it should be her turn to talk about the topic. She happened to see the novel she put under the coffee table, she took it out and suggested: “Why don’t you practice the lines with me.”

Xie Ruhe glanced at the cover and said dullly: “Practicing lines?”

“That’s right.” Shunen turned a page casually, “Just like you sing, you should also practice. The line skills are the same, not overnight, you have to keep practicing.”

“Ok.”

“I used to practice by myself.” Shunian said, “Today you accompany me to the game.”

Xie Ruhe should come down: “Okay.”

Shunen was a little happy when he agreed.

She looked at the content of this chapter and concluded: “The protagonist and the protagonist are childhood sweethearts. The protagonist has liked the protagonist since she was a child, but the protagonist has always ignored her. The story is about , The male partner confessed to the female lead, and the male lead became anxious, and forced him to kiss the female lead violently.”

“…”

Shunen grabbed the pen from the side and marked on the book: “I’ll mark out the lines of the two of us first.”

Xie Ruhe was silent for a few seconds and asked: “The book you bought?”

“This one?” Shunen flipped through it, recalling, “It seems that I bought it to make up the order before. I haven’t read it.”

Xie Ruhe remembered that when he came before, he seemed to have turned a few pages of this novel.

The dialogue is a bit exaggerated.

But seeing Shunian’s serious appearance, Xie Ruhe didn’t want to disturb her interest.

Shunen will become more serious once he does things related to dubbing. She took notes, substituted the mood of the protagonist, and figured out the character’s character.

Soon, Shunen handed the book to Xie Ruhe and said, “I have drawn all your lines for you. The blue highlighter is, do you want to adjust it?”

Xie Ruhe looked down and saw the lines above, his appearance became stiff.

Before he could reply, Shunen tilted his head and said, “Then start directly?”

“……Ok.”

The first is Xie Ruhe’s lines.

Xie Ruhe sighed, held the book tightly, and said dryly, “Didn’t you say that you like me? You change your heart fast enough. What is so good about that man? What is better than me? You liar, little liar. .”

“…” Shunen frowned and couldn’t help saying, “You seem to be studying like this.”

Xie Ruhe pursed his lips and said nothing.

Shunen leaned over and pointed to him: “And there is still a ‘huh’ here, haven’t you seen it? It should be in a frivolous and ironic tone. It’s like this—‘huh!”

“…”

Shunian looked at him: “Try it.”

Xie Ruhe’s scalp was numb, and he reluctantly said, “Heh.”

“That’s not the case.” Shunen scratched his head and said dullly, “Why are you weak?”

Xie Ruhe didn’t say a word.

Noting his expression, Shunen suddenly reacted and guessed: “Do you think this line is too ashamed to say it.”

Xie Ruhe really didn’t want to read it anymore, and admitted in a low voice: “Yeah.”

“Don’t think like this.” Shunen didn’t mean to stop, and said seriously, “You have to substitute yourself. This line is not what you are talking about, but this character is talking about it.”

“Shunen.” Xie Ruhe licked his lips and reminded tactfully, “I am not a voice actor.”

“Ah.” After a pause, Shunen’s voice instantly lowered, “But aren’t you playing with me? I can’t play with you like this… Then forget it, let’s watch the movie.”

Shunen closed the book and looked for the remote control sideways.

Aware of her emotions, Xie Ruhe immediately grabbed her hand without thinking.

Shunian turned around: “What’s wrong?”

He really couldn’t speak at all, but he didn’t want her to be unhappy because of it.

Xie Ruhe lowered his eyes, took the book back, and opened it again. Seeing the unspeakable line above, he closed his eyes and compromised: “…Teach me again.”

Both of them spent an afternoon on this.

In the end, Xie Ruhe finally lost his psychological baggage and barely brought a trace of emotion to be considered a fool.

Shunen originally regarded this as a very serious assignment, but later the purpose was inexplicably crooked. It was like a child found a new toy, and seeing Xie Ruhe’s always plain face had other expressions, her interest instantly shifted.

She knew that this was bad, but she couldn’t help but feel funny.

Then couldn’t help but tease him.

The two had dinner together.

Thinking of Deng Qingyu’s phone call, Shunian thought about it, and said to him: “My mother is coming to see me tomorrow. I haven’t seen her for a long time, so I plan to accompany her.”

Xie Ruhe was silent, as if he had remembered something, and soon responded.

At noon the next day, Deng Qingyu arrived at Shunian’s home.

Shunen’s sleep was shallow, and he woke up immediately when he heard the movement of the door, put on a coat and went out to the living room.

Deng Qingyu brought her a bunch of food, and was stuffing it into the refrigerator at this time. Seeing the book read out, she casually said: “Wake you up?”

Shunen shook his head and went to the bathroom to wash.

When she came out, Deng Qingyu had already left the kitchen and was clearing the living room. Shunen walked over to help and said, “Do you have anything else today?”

“No.” Deng Qingyu said with a smile, “I will go back after dinner with you. When I just went out, Xiaoxi also pestered to come over, but I called back to do my homework.”

Shunen’s movements stopped, and then said: “He can come anytime he wants.”

Hearing this, Deng Qingyu looked at her and seemed a little surprised: “That’s fine, I will bring him with me next time I come.”

Shunen bent her lips: “Yeah.”

“Don’t make it for now.” Deng Qingyu pointed to the dining table, “I brought you some porridge, and put it in the thermos box. You can eat it first. Don’t be hungry.”

Shunen nodded and walked to the table to eat.

Shunen’s house is not big, and a girl’s house will not be too dirty, just a simple clean up, and it will be cleaned up soon. It happened that Shunen had finished the porridge, and the two sat on the sofa and chatted.

It’s mostly about recent events.

Shunian originally wanted to tell Deng Qingyu that he was in love with Xie Ruhe, but remembered Deng Qingyu’s previous attitude towards him, he hesitated again, and finally swallowed the words into his stomach.

The two were talking while watching TV.

One afternoon passed quickly.

Deng Qingyu’s cell phone rang suddenly as a reminder from WeChat. She picked it up and took a look, then sighed suddenly and put the phone aside.

Noting her expression, Shunen asked casually: “What’s the matter?”

“The group in my hometown.” Deng Qingyu said, “Do you still remember? Just your junior high school friend. I seemed to have seen you meet him before? Just Xie Ruhe.”

Hearing Deng Qingyu mentioned Xie Ruhe’s name, Shunen was inexplicably vague and nodded hesitantly.

“I just saw your uncle and said that his father passed away today.” Deng Qingyu said, “It was said that the two elders of the Xie family kept calling to ask the child of the Xie family to go back to see the last time, but never went.”

“…”

“Now the family says they want to come to Ruchuan to find him, saying that he is a wolf with no conscience.”

Shunen’s mouth opened and he was speechless for a while.

“That kid hates this family, how could he go?” Deng Qingyu shook his head, “This family is too. Why are the white-eyed wolves? The premise of the white-eyed wolves is that they have to be kind to him. Where is the kindness? All enemies…”

Deng Qingyu was still talking, Shunen could not listen anymore.

She turned her eyes on the phone and looked at the date displayed in the center of the screen.

Shunen’s memory popped up bit by bit.

This day eight years ago.

Ji Xiangning was missing for a week.

On this day, under the notice of the police, Xie Ruhe, who had been looking for her for a long time day and night, and Shunian saw her body together.

–

Thinking of this, Shunen became anxious and didn’t know how to talk to Deng Qingyu. Anyway, she felt that Xie Ruhe should not be left alone on such a day.

While Deng Qingyu was cooking, she sent Xie Ruhe a WeChat message: [Are you home? 】

After a while, Xie Ruhe replied: [Hmm. 】

Seeing this reply, Shunen couldn’t sit still, and immediately walked into the kitchen and said to Deng Qingyu: “Mom, I want to go out. I can’t eat with you.”

Deng Qingyu was surprised: “Where are you going? Let’s eat the meal first? I’m almost done.”

“I have something urgent…” Shunen looked guilty, “Will I see you next time?”

“It’s okay, you can go if you have anything.” Deng Qingyu didn’t mind, “I put the dishes on the table, you can eat them when you come back, and you don’t need to put them in the refrigerator in this weather.”

Shunian said hello, hurried back to the room to change clothes, and then went out.

To the door of Xie Ruhe’s house.

Shunen plucked up his courage and rang the doorbell.

Soon someone came to open the door, Fang Wencheng. Seeing Shunian, he was a little surprised: “Shunian? Why are you here?”

“I’m looking for Xie Ruhe.” Shunian whispered, “Is he there?”

“Yes, in the room.” Fang Wencheng said, “Today is the anniversary of his wife’s death. The young master went to see his wife in the morning. After returning, he stayed in the room and never came out.”

Shunen pursed her lips and asked, “Can I go in and find him?”

Fang Wencheng couldn’t make a decision on this matter, he was just an assistant. But he felt that Xie Ruhe’s condition at the moment was not very good. Out of friendliness, he reminded: “Yes, but the young master is not in a good mood now, and he may lose his temper.”

Shunian said, “I know.”

Fang Wencheng leaned sideways and moved her a space: “You go in, I’m going to leave too. Just go in the penultimate room, you can go straight in. If you knock on the door, the young master should not hear him. He plays the concert very loudly.”

Shunen nodded: “Okay.”

Shunen changed his shoes and walked in.

There are four rooms in this house. In Shunian’s impression, the most inner room is Xie Ruhe’s bedroom. But the second-to-last room Fang Wencheng said, she had never entered this room, and she didn’t know what it was like.

Although Fang Wencheng said there was no need to knock on the door, Shunen knocked on the door cautiously.

Without a response, she hesitated and said, “Xie Ruhe, am I in?”

Still no one responded.

Shunian held the doorknob and pushed the door open.

The deafening rock music came into Shunen’s ears in an instant.

The room was empty, with no extra furniture. The sky outside was half dark, the curtains were wide open, no light could penetrate in, and the lights did not turn on.

Shunian could see Xie Ruhe at a glance.

He was sitting in the middle of the room with his eyebrows drooped, his expression unclear, like a vampire lurking in the dark. As the door opened, the piercing light suddenly illuminated half of the room.

He moved dullly, and looked in the direction of the door.

Noticing that it was her, the hostility in Xie Ruhe’s eyes dissipated a little, and he still sat in place.

But stretched out a hand to her.

Shunen closed the door, the room smelled of smoke, and she couldn’t help coughing. She walked over, took his hand, and sat down beside him.

She can clearly feel that his mood is different from usual, which is obviously very bad.

Xie Ruhe held a cigarette with the fingertips of his other hand, glowing with scarlet light.

Hearing Shunen’s cough, he pinched out the cigarette. Then he took up the remote control and turned off the music.

Next to it are dominoes set in twists and turns.

Shunen didn’t know how to comfort him, so he could only sit next to him. Just like when he was at a loss because of his mother’s disappearance, she could only accompany him to look around.

Noting the ashtray with a dozen cigarette butts next to it, Shunen whispered: “Did you smoke?”

Xie Ruhe hummed softly.

Shunian didn’t know how to express it, and said, “Smoking is bad for your health.”

The fine hair fell on his forehead, and the end of his eyes was picked up, which was inexplicable. The sad mood was suppressed by him, and he smiled, looking dangling.

A person staying in such a dark place, surrounded by deceptive music.

Xie Ruhe felt that he should not be sober at this time. His voice was a little hoarse, mellow and clear, with a casual smile.

“You kiss me and I will quit.”

The atmosphere freezes instantly.

Shunen clenched his fists and stared at him as if at a loss.

Seeing her so nervous, most of Xie Ruhe’s bad mood disappeared. Because of this cover-up in the dark, he didn’t feel embarrassed, on the contrary, he had the pleasure of speaking out his desires.

But he didn’t want to make her too uncomfortable.

Xie Ruhe lowered his eyes, the phrase “I’m joking with you” in his mouth had not been uttered yet.

The next second, as if he had made up his mind, Shunen suddenly propped his head on the floor with one hand. Because of her inexperience, she didn’t find the position and only kissed his lower lip.

The breathing of the two is particularly clear in this room.

Dull light, soft touch on lips.

It’s like a dream in the past.

Xie Ruhe was caught off guard, his eyes widened slightly. Without consciously supporting his hand behind his back, he touched the dominoes behind him. The dominoes fell in order in an instant, making a humming sound.

He was stunned, staring at Shunen, his Adam’s apple rolled up and down.

In a flash, Shunen retreated. Her eyes are round and bright, and the tails of her eyes are naturally a little drooping, like a puppy coquettish with her master, reflecting his face clearly.

The ambiguous atmosphere is fermenting.

Xie Ruhe’s brain is blank.

It was so quiet for an unknown period of time.

After a long time, Shunen said softly, “I kissed him.”
