Feed You Sweets - Chapter 35
After Luo Tao went home, he went to the bedroom and took a shower. After the washing, Amang followed him, and went to the window sill alone. With air-conditioning blowing over his head, the young man’s hair was still wet, he was wearing a white towel and looking out the window.
Outside the window, Lin Ling just came out of Wei Ruxia’s house, only she came out. Every time Lin Ling appears, it can affect Wei Ruxia’s mood. From a personal point of view, Luo Tao doesn’t like her arrival.
Wiping her hair clean, Wei Ruxia didn’t even mean to come to his house. She faintly felt something was wrong in her heart. Luo Tao put the towel off and took Amang downstairs.
He had just arrived at the door of Wei Ruxia’s house, and Wei Ruxia came out of the house. Her face is not very good, her lips are a little pale, and she looks absent-minded. When she looked up and saw Luo Tang, she twitched her lips and smiled, and said, “Aunt Lin just left.”
Luo Tao looked at her lip color and asked, “What happened to Uncle Wei?”
“Ah.” Wei Ruxia’s heart tightened. She looked at Luo Tang, touched the sweat on her head, and said: “It’s okay, the air-conditioning at home is not enough, I am a little hot, and may have a heat stroke.”
She is a little confused now, and some things are said to be spilled water, which cannot be collected. She doesn’t know if it’s good or bad to say it, so she plans not to tell Luo Tao.
Luo Tao has always respected her and stretched out her hand and said: “Come to my house, I have ice cream in my house.”
The ice cream eased Wei Ruxia’s bitter mood. She got up and walked to Luo Tao’s side, took his hand and said, “Yeah.”
With things in her heart, Wei Ruxia was living a muddle-headed day today. After eating ice cream, she went back to the room and took a shower. The cold water gradually eased her emotions. After washing, she took out her mobile phone and prepared to call her father.
Lin Ling came to her behind his father’s back. Since he came to her, he wanted her to make a choice.
Wei Ruxia stayed for a while, and the phone screen was turned on and off, and on and off. In the end, she didn’t dial the call and fell asleep on the bed.
Wei Ruxia slept unsteadily, and her consciousness had been hazy. For a while, she dreamed that her mother was dying and said that she owed her father and asked her to make up. For a while, I dreamed that before my grandma was dying, she said that she wanted to make their father-daughter relationship better and asked her to take care of her father. Finally, she dreamed of her father’s death… Wei Ruxia opened her eyes, the room was already covered with dark shadows, and Wei Ruxia was in a cold sweat.
At dinner time, the family had already prepared dinner. Today, when the two little guys came back, Yang Shuru didn’t plan to let Wei Ruxia go home to eat, so his aunt made four other northern dishes for Wei Ruxia.
As soon as Wei Ruxia left the house, Yang Shuru in the living room downstairs got up and walked over and asked with concern: “Why have you slept for so long? Is your body uncomfortable?”
Wei Ruxia has a very good physique and rarely feels uncomfortable.
She went out after washing her face, and her face looked not so bad. When Yang Shuru was talking, Luo Tang, who was playing with Amang, also looked over. Although he was playing, Luo Tang was pretending to be something in his heart. Wei Ruxia was emotionally upset after Lin Ling left. Her current troubles are probably related to her father.
“It’s okay.” Wei Ruxia laughed. She went downstairs and rubbed her eyebrows. “It should be heat stroke.”
“I’ll take some medicine after I have eaten then.” Yang Shuru said, holding her hand and smilingly said: “Let’s eat.”
Luo Tang’s father is having a meeting at the company tonight, so he won’t come back to eat. There is no patriarch on the table, and the atmosphere is much more lively. Yang Shuru told Wei Ruxia to eat, and then quietly asked how Luo Tao would celebrate Wei Ruxia’s birthday tomorrow.
“After my birthday, I will have a class reunion the next day, right?” Yang Shuru asked.
Luo Tang told her about this matter after returning. When Wei Ruxia heard this, she looked up at Luo Tang and smiled: “Are you going?”
He has never liked to join in this kind of excitement. Hu Yinyin called her at the time, and actually wanted her to take Luo Yan, but no one in the class dared to inform him.
“Yeah.” Luo Tang drank a spoonful of soup, looked up at Wei Ruxia, and asked: “Aren’t you going?”
With a move of her eyes, Wei Ruxia pursed her lips, laughed and said, “Go.”
Wei Ruxia received birthday wishes from three people at the same time in the early morning. One is Hu Yinyin, the other is Luo Tang, and the other is his father.
Knowing that it is early morning in China, my father sent WeChat, and the blessing message is very simple, only eight words.
[Happy birthday, my daughter. 】
After Lin Ling told her everything, she has not contacted her father. Wei Ruxia stared at the information on the screen for a long time, and finally dialed his father’s phone.
Getting up early the next morning, Wei Ruxia ate breakfast and looked at Luo Tao who was drinking milk on the opposite side. The young man’s eyebrows were calm, white and gentle in the morning sun.
“Your alarm clock?” Wei Ruxia asked with a smile.
Luo Tang sent her birthday wishes in the early morning, but Wei Ruxia didn’t get up. She didn’t reply to him until 7 o’clock in the morning. At that time, he had already ran back with Amon Chen.
Luo Tang raised his eyes to look at Wei Ruxia. The girl smiled happily and arbitrarily. The one who was favored was always confident, but he liked Wei Ruxia like this. Because she is confident, precisely because she understands what he thinks of her.
“No, I haven’t slept.” Luo Tao said.
“Oh~” Wei Ruxia’s eyes flashed with a trace of apology, her smile deepened, and she said, “Then I won’t sleep so hard next time.”
Luo Tang’s eyes and expressions looked at her, no different from the past. Seeing her feeling better, Luo Tang lowered her eyelids, took a sip of milk, and said, “Next time you will still sleep so hard.”
Being pierced by Luo Tao, Wei Ruxia was not embarrassed, and she chuckled again.
After the two had eaten, Wei Ruxia was taken away by Luo Tao. He paid more attention to her eighteenth birthday than herself.
Compared with Wei Ruxia’s gift to Luo Tao on his birthday, Luo Tao’s gift is very deliberate. The gift he gave was not bought, but made by himself.
Luo Tao arranged her first birthday stop in a pottery studio.
The embryo drawing machine was spinning, and the wet clay rubbed her palms. Wei Ruxia looked at Luo Tang who was sitting next to her dreamily.
The boy was wearing a light gray tarpaulin apron, his slender fingers were covered by gray clay. He lowered his head slightly, his profile was delicate and beautiful, his eyelashes blinked slightly, and his eyes were black and shiny. Obviously it was not the first time he did it, his technique was very skillful, and coupled with his outstanding appearance, the people around him more or less cast their eyes on him.
Most of the people who came here were little girls, watching Luo Tao discussing in a low voice.
“That boy is so handsome, you think he is doing very well.”
“The fingers are so beautiful, this hand control is about to die.”
“Is the girl sitting next to him his girlfriend? It’s a pretty good match, and it turns out that the good-looking people play with the good-looking people.”
Wei Ruxia smiled and listened to their discussion, looking sideways at Luo Tao in a daze. When she was in a trance, Luo Tang turned her head slightly, and the two of them looked at each other. Wei Ruxia moved her heart and her hand moved with it, and the clay on her hand deformed instantly.
“Hey, it’s broken again.” Wei Ruxia looked at the scattered pottery in her hands and said, she didn’t know how many times she had broken it.
Looking down at Wei Ruxia’s clay, Luo Yan pursed her lips, her hands kept moving, and asked, “What are you looking at?”
While pinching the clay together again, Wei Ruxia replied frankly: “Look at you.”
The Adam’s apple moved slightly, and the young man smiled. Listening to his smile, Wei Ruxia squeezed the clay in his hands, and suddenly said, “This must be my most unforgettable birthday.”
The embryo drawing machine hasn’t stopped, she hurriedly fiddled with the clay on the drawing machine, her expression still indifferent. No matter what accidents happen, she can always maintain such calmness.
Luo Tao watched the clay in her hands collapse again, and stood up. Wei Ruxia noticed his movements and looked up at him, then Luo Yuan pulled her seat and sat behind her.
As soon as the young man sat down, Wei Ruxia smelled a fresh mint fragrance. Mint scent is often clean, but Wei Ruxia feels a little dry, with her back pressed against the boy’s chest, she can feel the boy’s strong and slightly disordered heartbeat.
The girls who had just chatted with Luo Yuan let out a small scream after sitting down. As they screamed, Luo Tang stretched out his hand to cover the back of Wei Ruxia’s hand.
The first time she did it, the clay on her hands didn’t form at all. Luo Tao held her hand and put the clay into shape. He breathed very lightly, scratching the back of Wei Ruxia’s neck, the young man’s voice was low, like a mountain stream.
“Is it more memorable now?”
Feeling Luo Tang’s breathing, Wei Ruxia was not heat-resistant. The roots of her ears were gradually dyed with a layer of pink, and the clay on her hands gradually formed. Wei Ruxia did not deny it and responded with a chuckle.
“Ok.”
Luo Tao made a small cup for her, and she painted two rabbits on it, because she and Luo Tao are both rabbits. She is mediocre, ugly on the cup.
Yang Shuru prepared a birthday meal tonight, and the two of them have to go back to eat dinner. After finishing pottery, Wei Ruxia wants to skate. There is no skating rink in Ancheng, so Luo Tao took her to the roller skating rink.
Wei Ruxia didn’t want to skate too much, but in the skating rink, she always reminded her of the scene when Luo Tao confessed to her.
Wei Ruxia’s 18th birthday was very happy, like the kind of happiness that would have overdrawn all future happiness. She will celebrate her birthday every year in the future, but all the birthdays bring her not as happy as the eighteenth birthday.
Before dinner, Wei Ruxia and Luo Tao took the subway home. When leaving the subway entrance, Wei Ruxia saw that there was a Kongming lantern at the subway entrance, so she paid for one.
“Is there a place to put it?” Wei Ruxia asked Luo Tao while holding the Kongming lantern.
Looking at her happy face, Luo Tao responded, “You can put it on the Anhe River behind the apartment.”
“That’s good.” Wei Ruxia said with a smile, “I want to put the Kong Ming Lantern to make a wish. They said that the Kong Ming Lantern wish is more accurate than the birthday cake.”
Wei Ruxia has never believed in such things. But today, she wants to make a wish that must be realized.
After having dinner at home, Wei Ruxia took Luo Tao’s hand to the Anhe River. On summer nights, the Anhe River occasionally has a cool breeze, but there are still very few people here to enjoy the cool, and there are only a few people on the entire river bank.
“This is the first time I put the Kong Ming Lantern.” Wei Ruxia took a marker and wrote her wishes on the Kong Ming Lantern. While she was writing, she glanced at Luo Tao next to her. Luo Tang also wrote on the Kongming Lantern, and seeing her look over, he stretched out his hand to cover it.
In this shelter, Wei Ruxia saw the boy’s red face under the street lamp.
Her heart moved and her brain was a little hot, which made her feel an impulse. And this impulse was soon suppressed by the breeze by the river.
“Let it go.” Wei Ruxia took the match and lit the Kongming Lantern.
Although I bought it at the subway station, the quality is quite good. After the lamp was turned on, the Kongming Lantern took off quickly, Wei Ruxia laughed and said, “Let go.”
Luo Tang next to him let go of his hand, and the Kong Ming lantern flew slowly into the sky. The lights of Kongming Lantern flickered, as if lighting up the dark night sky. The sight of the people walking around floated to the Kongming Lantern.
“What wish did you make?” Wei Ruxia asked, leaning on the railing on the river bank, looking back at Luo Tao.
Luo Tao, who had not been allowed to see her just now, was willing to tell her his wish after Kong Mingdeng flew far away. He turned his head to meet her gaze and said, “Always be with you.”
This is Luo Tang’s most straightforward confession to her, a simple sentence that makes people’s heart fascinating.
Wei Ruxia smiled slightly. She didn’t look at him again, turned her head to look at the Kong Ming Lantern drifting away in the night sky, and smiled: “I wish you happiness forever.”
After speaking, Wei Ruxia frowned slightly and bit her lower lip.
“Then our wish is the same.” Wei Ruxia was hidden in the dark shadow, and Luo Tao did not see her expression.
“Huh?” Wei Ru Xia Xuxu smiled and asked, “How do you say?”
Luo Tang turned his head and looked at Wei Ruxia with clear eyes.
“I will always be happy with you forever.”
Wei Ruxia took a breath, and the surrounding cold air cut her throat like ice skates, making her speechless, and even so, she still had to talk to Luo Yan for her decision.
“Luo Tang…” Wei Ruxia called him, and after calling his name, she seemed to use up all her strength. Wei Ruxia sank, she looked up at Luo Tang and said, “I can’t be with you forever. I will fly to England tomorrow afternoon.”
The leaves were rustling in the evening breeze, and the Anhe under the street lamp was blown with billowing ripples, like Luo Yuan’s crumpled heart. Everything just now seemed to be a dream. Luo Tao looked at Wei Ruxia and asked calmly, “What happened?”
The calmness of the teenager caused Wei Ruxia’s breathing to stagnate. She was like a stranded fish. After a long time, her mind turned around, she said concisely.
“My dad is not on tour for the past six months. He has been seriously ill and has been undergoing conservative treatment abroad. Aunt Lin said that he will continue to procrastinate, and it is likely that all his right body has shrunk and become paralyzed. He will have an operation immediately, and he will have to recover abroad after the operation. Healthy. Rehabilitation will take at least ten years, and it may not be cured after ten years…I’m going to accompany him.”
Ten years is not short, and more importantly, it may not be cured after ten years. She went to England and basically settled in England with her father. She would not let Luo Tao wait for her, let alone let Luo Tao go with her. This year, when he celebrated the Spring Festival at his grandmother’s house, they had already said that Luo Yuan could study abroad, but he could not settle abroad. The roots of their Luo family are in Ancheng, and their parents and grandparents are in Ancheng. Luo Tao is the only child, and it is impossible for him to accompany her.
She was going abroad to accompany her mother and grandma and told her to take good care of her father, while he had to stay with his family in China. The future of alien love is very slim. They are at the beginning of their love. At this time, the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain.
Wei Ruxia is very selfish. She had already made a decision when she talked to her father on the phone in the early morning, but she still told him after her birthday with Luo Tao. She wanted to spend her eighteenth birthday with Luo Tang, and wanted to always remember this for all the teenagers she gave her.
It wasn’t until Wei Ruxia finished this that Luo Tang gradually believed. She was still her, and what she said was simple and easy to understand. After the incident, she considered all the circumstances, and then made a decision simply and decisively, without even giving him any chance to stay.
Luo Tao remembered the first time she saw Wei Ruxia, her eyes were filled with indifference in seeing everything through and accepting everything. Wei Ruxia is very decisive. She has always been able to handle it clearly, knowing what she wants and what to give up.
“You abandoned me.” Luo Yuan felt that knowing Wei Ruxia was like a dream. Now Wei Ruxia has broken this dream. He woke up and Wei Ruxia was gone.
The young man’s eyes locked on her tightly, Wei Ruxia’s heart seemed to have been slashed, she shook her head and said: “No, Luo Tao, you are very good, everyone likes you, no one will abandon you.”
“Except for you.” Luo Tang said.
The three words seemed to hit her chest with a dull fist, and Wei Ruxia couldn’t answer.
Luo Tang looked at Wei Ruxia, his eyes were surging with emotions that Wei Ruxia had never seen before, and the boy’s voice was gloomy, like the sea before a storm.
“But I would rather be abandoned by the whole world, as long as you are.”
The author has something to say:
Tangtang: Well, you abandoned me today, and you can’t chase me tomorrow.
