Defeated By Love - Chapter 73

Shunian was silent, staring at Wang Linxi. Seeing that he looks serious, his eyes are shining, and he doesn’t seem to be joking. She didn’t know how to respond to his words for a while.

Wang Linxi asked, “Is it successful?”

Shunen was not too embarrassed to make this request with Xie Ruhe, and didn’t want to disappoint Wang Linxi, so he could only remind him euphemistically: “It’s useless if you write it, you just take a shower and you will drop it.”

“I have a marker.” Wang Linxi got up and drew a marker from the pen holder. “And it’s fine if I don’t rub it in the bath, it won’t fall.”

“…”

After that, Wang Linxi sat back on the ground, excitedly counting the number of albums, and said shamelessly: “Sister, I have twelve albums here, can I sign every one of my brother-in-law?”

Shunian pursed her lips and said with difficulty, “I will ask later.”

“Sister.” Wang Linxi thought for a while, and suddenly remembered something, “You brought my brother-in-law back. Does it mean that you are going to get married?”

Hearing this, Shunen’s face was a little hot: “Not yet.”

Wang Linxi tilted his head and asked, “Will you get married?”

Shunen was stunned, his mouth opened, and he couldn’t say a clear answer. Before she could say anything, she suddenly noticed the album in Wang Linxi’s arms. It is now in the highest position.

It is Xie Ruhe’s first album “I Nian”.

The style is probably gloomy, and the overall color of the cover is dark. The girl stood in the middle, with a white dress and white shoes, holding a bunch of flowers in her hands, her appearance was blurred. There were dozens of white and black cranes flying around, entwining her like vines.

It’s like a sin that breeds in the dark.

Shunen’s gaze paused and subconsciously picked it up to look at it.

Wang Linxi followed her gaze and movements, and explained to her grinningly: “This is Ahe’s first album. It was given to me by a friend! A birthday gift! It is no longer available.”

Shunian stroked the cranes on the cover with his fingertips, and muttered: “My thoughts…”

I think.

When she saw this name before, what she thought should mean “what I read”. But now when I see it again, my mood is different.

I think it probably means very literally, very straightforward.

Wang Linxi curiously asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shunen returned him the album in his hand, and said blankly: “If there is no accident, it should be.”

“Huh? What.”

Shunian recovered, reached out his hand and touched Wang Linxi’s head, without speaking. Afterwards, she looked down at the phone and felt that the time she spent in the room seemed too long.

Suddenly, I kind of wanted to see Xie Ruhe.

Shunian stood up and was about to go out.

At this moment, the door was knocked three times. The next moment, the door was pushed open, and Wang Hao leaned in and asked kindly: “What are your brothers and sisters talking about?”

Wang Linxi heard about his reputation and wondered: “You have to know what a child says.”

Wang Hao walked in and instructed Wang Linxi: “Go and buy me a pack of cigarettes.”

“Ah! Why do you smoke again!” Wang Linxi wailed, “I don’t want to…”

Wang Hao added: “I’ll give you fifty yuan.”

Wang Linxi got up immediately: “Good!”

“Sister.” Wang Linxi turned around, “Do you have anything to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”

Shunen also got up: “I’ll go with you.”

Wang Hao touched his nose and looked loyal and easy to get along with. He looked a little ashamed and uneasy: “Niannian, just let him go, uncle has a few words to tell you.”

Shunen’s movements stopped, and sat back obediently, with a cramped expression: “Okay.”

Wang Hao sat on Wang Linxi’s bed and took out a red envelope from his pocket: “I heard your mother say before, you heard your uncle quarreling with your mother.”

“…”

“I’m just a person who doesn’t speak well.” Wang Hao said, “It wasn’t intentional. The conditions at home were not very good at the time, and I was under a little pressure, and I always quarreled with your mother. At this moment, I thought, I can’t remember what I said at that time. I didn’t mean to hurt you. It’s uncle’s fault. Uncle apologizes to you. I’m sorry.”

Shunen didn’t know how to react, and whispered: “It’s okay…”

Wang Hao stuffed the red envelope into her hand: “It makes you wronged.”

Shunian didn’t pick it up, nor didn’t pick it up: “I understand, you don’t need to give me this…”

“Just take it.” Wang Hao had never done anything like this before, and stood up embarrassedly, “Just take it as your uncle’s pocket money, take it, it’s not much.”

There was a stalemate for several seconds.

Shunen accepted it: “Thank you, uncle.”

Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief: “Then let’s go out and stay in the room for too long. Your mother just said that she hadn’t seen you for a long time and wanted to talk to you for a while.”

Shunen held the red envelope and put his head down in his pocket: “Okay.”

Back in the living room, Shunian sat back next to Xie Ruhe. She raised her eyes and noticed that Deng Qingyu’s eyes had a faint red color around her eyes, but she seemed to be in a good mood.

I don’t know what topic they just talked about.

Shunen was a little thirsty and took a sip of water from the cup in front of him.

Deng Qingyu smiled and said, “What did Xiaoxi tell you? I talked for a long time.”

Upon hearing this, Shunen suddenly remembered Wang Linxi’s weird request, and then glanced in Xie Ruhe’s direction, with a hesitant expression on his expression.

Xie Ruhe touched her water glass and added some hot water in: “What’s wrong?”

Shunen swallowed the water in his mouth, and whispered, “Xiaoxi wants you to sign him.”

Xie Ruhe said, “I’ll sign it later.”

Shunen scratched his head: “He has twelve albums and he wants you to sign them.”

Xie Ruhe said: “Okay.”

“And…and…”

“Ok?”

When I noticed that Deng Qingyu and Wang Hao were both listening, Shunianben found it hard to tell, and worried that they would curse Wang Linxi when they heard it, so he raised his head and leaned in Xie Ruhe’s ear.

Xie Ruhe lowered his head slightly.

The two were extremely close.

Shunen lowered her voice, exhaled a shallow breath when she spoke, and dyed the roots of Xie Ruhe’s ears: “He still wants you to sign on his belly…”

The next moment, Xie Ruhe raised his head, reached out and rubbed his ears: “Why?”

Shunen was a little embarrassed: “I want to show it to my classmates.”

Xie Ruhe sat up straight and said calmly: “I see.”

Shunen’s expression is cautious: “You can refuse it if you don’t want it.”

Wang Linxi came back from buying cigarettes for Wang Hao just then. He put things in front of Wang Hao, and then said to Shunian like a secret signal: “Sister, abs! Abs!”

“…” Shunen said softly, “Go get the album out.”

With a cheer, Wang Linxi jumped back to the room. Not long after, he came out with a large stack of albums, put it in front of Xie Ruhe, and shouted doglegally: “Brother-in-law.”

Xie Ruhe responded, and quickly signed the dozen albums.

Wang Linxi was still on the sidelines talking with great precision.

“Can you add a sentence here, TO dear Lin Xi.”

“This and this! Just write a happy 13th birthday to Wang Linxi!”

Xie Ruhe didn’t refuse either, and seemed extra patient. What Wang Linxi said, he would give a gentle acknowledgment, and then write up sentence by sentence, without a hint of impatience.

Shunian watched.

For a long time, after Xie Ruhe finished signing, Wang Linxi gently lifted the hem of his clothes. Perhaps it was because in front of the idol, his appearance finally became a little bit shy: “And this…”

Xie Ruhe pulled his clothes back: “Sign your hands.”

Wang Linxi thought about it: “But it’s easy to write off.”

Xie Ruhe said: “I will write to you if I drop it.”

The corners of Wang Linxi’s mouth rose wildly, and he felt like grabbing VIP tickets for the concert.

“You can come and play later when you have time.” Xie Ruhe signed a name in the palm of his palm, covered the pen cap, and said with his lips bent, “Come with your sister more often.”

Stayed for a while.

As it approached nine o’clock, Shunian felt that it was too late and offered to leave.

The two said goodbye to Wang Hao and Deng Qingyu, and then took the elevator downstairs. Just now at the dinner table, Shunian and Xie Ruhe both drank a little wine. At this time, neither of them could drive, so they just put the car here and went to take the subway.

The air at night was exceptionally fresh and slightly cool.

Shunen raised his hand and touched his hot cheek. At this moment, he felt that the little wine he had just drunk seemed to be on his head. She is in a good mood, and her whole body seems to have endless energy.

after awhile.

Shunen took out the red envelope in his pocket: “Uncle Wang just gave me this.”

Xie Ruhe glanced at it, “Red envelope?”

“Yeah.” Shunen said, sniffing his nose. “He apologized to me. Because he had said before that he felt that the money spent on treating me was no different from burning.”

“…”

“I was very unhappy at the time. I felt like I was a cumbersome.” Shunen lowered his head. “I didn’t tell my mother that I heard these words, so I cried a few times by myself.”

Xie Ruhe subconsciously pinched her chin and raised her head.

Her eyes were clean and clear, with no signs of wetness.

Shunen’s eyes were wide open, shocked by his behavior. In the next second, her eyes bend into crescent moons, and Wen Tun said, “I think life seems to be getting better and better.”

Xie Ruhe breathed a sigh of relief: “Yeah.”

Those who are difficult, don’t want to go back to the past.

It seemed that he had already bid her farewell completely.

Suddenly, Shunen came out: “Master Ahe, I kind of want to sing.”

Hearing this, Xie Ruhe looked down at her: “What do you want to sing?”

Shunian thought for a while, smiled and hummed a song of the recent fire, and then asked, “Am I out of tune?”

Xie Ruhe was silent for a few seconds and nodded: “Run away.”

Shunen quickly lowered her voice: “That can’t be heard by others.”

“It’s okay, sing.”

“Others will laugh at me.”

“No one else.”

“Maybe someone else is here now, but we didn’t notice.”

Xie Ruhe rubbed her head without changing her face and said, “Then I will say that I sang it.”

“…”

He said so, Shunen hesitated, and continued to hum. Soon, she remembered the album she had just seen, stopped singing, and asked: “Is your first album called “Wu Nian”?”

Xie Ruhe’s footsteps paused: “The first one?”

“Yeah.” Shunen burped, “The first one.”

“No.”

Shunen frowned: “It’s called this.”

Xie Ruhe said, “Don’t call it this.”

“I have checked it before, and the first one is called “Wu Nian”.”

“You are not correct.”

Shunen’s mouth drooped, and said depressed: “What’s that called?”

“Call.” Xie Ruhe chuckled lightly, “My thoughts.”
