Her Little Dimples - Chapter 60
The thank-you speech was beaten to the side of the head.
He was stunned by the sudden slap. Dumb and dumb, look stupid.
It took a long time to froze and covered half of his face, and said aggrieved: “Xu You, my face hurts so much.”
As soon as the words fell, there was another slap in the face.
“Does it still hurt?” Xu You asked, her fingers trembling unchecked.
“……” This time he didn’t even dare to say anything, because he was crying again when he saw her.
Really, a man has not been completely defeated by a woman.
I don’t know the taste.
A tear, even a look.
As long as she gave it to you, whatever it is, good or bad, you have to accept it willingly.
Thanks for resignation since he was young, he has a bad temper, and the ignorant age loves to bully his peers, and when he is older, no one dares to provoke him. It’s this kind of person who is a big demon no matter where he goes, and he beats others when they get together, so there is no experience of being slapped and not fighting back.
As long as I go to a fight together, I like to watch the thank you words, because he is very squeamish, and very face-conscious. As long as someone touches him or hurts him, he must return it twice, even if he is deceived or deceived, he must return it.
Only this time, standing under the colorful neon lights. The intense orange light shone on her face, making the curvature of the thank you spine unconsciously slightly curved, and she didn’t dare to move at all.
Xu You raised his head, letting all his expressions be in his eyes, and the disappointment in his eyes quickly spread.
“——Thank you, I feel more painful than you.”
After speaking, she turned and left.
Before digesting the meaning of this sentence, the brain hasn’t made any response to thank you. He didn’t care much, and said after a few steps: “Xu You, don’t cry, don’t you succeed, don’t you want to stop kicking my feet out of anger?”
“……”
He hasn’t coaxed a woman for so many years. He has no experience and is really clumsy.
Chasing all the way, against the crowd. Late at night, there are still countless people seeking pleasure in this city, tirelessly.
“You stand still.” Xu You stopped.
Thanks immediately and obediently stopped moving.
The two were in front of the traffic lights under the sidewalk and the overpass. The green light was on, and the people next to them left one after another, leaving them alone.
She stood with her back to him, holding her arms, as if it were cold. Thank you, you can’t see her expression.
It turned into a red light again.
“When we first met, you forced me to do a lot of things that I didn’t like.”
Xu You lowered her head without opening remarks, as if she was talking to herself.
“I saw you fighting, you were fierce, so I was afraid of you, and didn’t want to mess with you. I know we are different, so I try not to contact you. But then you treat me well, I also remember , You come to me in the parking lot, accompany me back to see my grandmother, run downstairs to give me candy. I think you are stupid, but you have a very happy life, completely opposite to me. You always like to be in front of me Confidently did many things, but failed. You screwed my water glass, I deliberately pretended not to know. When you came home with me, I pretended not to know. You peeped at me in class and took away the pens I used Hidden, I pretended not to know.”
The words behind, even she herself hadn’t noticed it, and she had softened her voice.
Bit by bit in the past, when I was recalled bit by bit, my heart still throbbed and hurt.
I still remember having dinner with You Lele and the two of them talked about the time in high school. You Lele talked about her own instructor, the naughty boys in the class, and the class teacher who always likes to talk about principles in class. She laughed.
Xu You listened quietly.
“Xu Yo… I may be older now, and I like to remember the past more and more. I think high school life is very beautiful. Although I was tired every day, I felt that everything was worth it at that time.” You Le Le laughed and sighed.
“Ok.”
She said, “Although the boys at that time were all naive, but innocent, they would treat whoever they liked with one heart and one mind.”
“However, it seems that little girls prefer boys who are a little bit stubborn. I have liked them too, but I don’t know how to describe that feeling. A scumbag is a kind of temperament. If there is no such tone, it is a rascal.”
As a result, Xu You suddenly thought of his seventeen or eighteen years old.
In the sultry afternoon, the lazy cicada chirping, the teenager lying on the table sleeping.
In the classroom next to it, the sound of reading aloud is heard from time to time, and the leaves outside the window are more luxuriant than the sun.
At that time, Xu You ate in the school cafeteria at night.
They have not been divided into classes. Every time she finishes her meal, she walks back to the school building. He just finished playing basketball and went upstairs with his friends. The thank you speech is always overly lively, surrounded by a large group of people. The stairs are very wide. Xu You walked to the left and they walked to the right. Thanks for holding a basketball, talking to others and approaching her. Yu Guang glanced at her, she deliberately couldn’t see.
Occasionally a few days, Xu You deliberately detoured a few more times, deliberately avoiding them before returning to the teaching building. The thank you speech would always lie on the railing of the corridor, with the golden sunset behind him, and he whistled at her with a sneer on his face. At this time, the other boys standing in the corridor laughed.
Xu You remembered the way he smiled.
The brows are slightly raised, and the corners of the lips are deeply sunken. Heiqi’s eyes are bright, childish and charming.
“Later, I thought you might be a little cute, even though you were always gagging and spoofing. But at that time, I always thought you were too naive. Now that I think about it, I was very young and didn’t know anything except studying. I’m not very good at it. Expressing your feelings may have made you doubt our feelings. You have your pride, and I also have my self-esteem. You are not without resentment or hatred, and I am not without sadness or joy.”
He stared at his shoes without saying a word, feeling that his heart was pinched in his hands and then rubbed.
She is a kind judge.
And he is being Ling Chi.
“Thank you, I used to have a lot of things I wanted to say, but now I don’t think it makes sense to say it. I don’t need to think about it anymore. But for so long, I haven’t blamed you for everything, except for your self-righteousness. “
“I have no sympathy or pity for your past, because it is your own choice. No matter whether you are glorious or depraved in the future, I will bless you. I respect all your choices, but—”
Xu You paused, as if unable to speak. She lifted the back of her hand and wiped the last tear away.
Too long to endure, she has completely collapsed.
Xie Yu said ardently, “Xu Yo…”
“——You always treat me in the way you feel right, but none of them is what I want.”
Thanks.
You defeated me, not your innocence.
But your innocence.
The most sad, cruel innocence.
The green light was on, and she walked slowly across the zebra crossing.
The thank-you speech did not move, I just felt that my head was suffocated and my brain was suffocated. It hurts everywhere, my chest is tight, and my temples jump suddenly.
He stayed where he was, watching her go further and further away.
As if to finish this street.
They returned to two worlds.
—
“Xu Yo, are you okay?”
Li Zhengan stretched out his hand and shook in front of her eyes, “What are you thinking about?”
Holding a cup of coffee, he passed by Xu You’s place of work.
Zhang Lili, who was sitting across from Xu You, raised her head and said with a smile, “She’s been absent-minded all morning.”
“So idle, have you finished the manuscript?” Li Zhengan asked.
Zhang Lili: “It is being reviewed by the editor-in-chief, and it should be handed over to the editorial department afterwards.”
“It’s very efficient.”
“Thanks to Xu You.”
Listening to their small talk, Xu You bowed his head, opened the drawer, and pulled out a board of cold medicine from the inside. She picked two capsules, picked up the glass on one side, mixed with water and swallowed it down her throat.
I don’t know how, the rain the day before yesterday broke out only today.
She got up this morning and felt a splitting headache. You Lele measured her temperature and developed a low-grade fever.
Li Zhengan, who was leaning on the side, saw that Xu You’s face was not good, and asked with some worry, “You have a cold, do you want to hang on to the water? Don’t hold on to it if you’re not in good health.”
Concerned about him, Xu You shook his head, and didn’t even bother to raise his eyes.
Zhang Lili smiled straight after watching this scene.
I sighed in my heart, really falling flowers deliberately, flowing water ruthlessly. Unfortunately, it is another unrequited love.
In fact, during this period of working with Xu You, Zhang Lili found that this girl was a little bit cold in a different sense. That is, it is not simply not feeling the men at all, but completely lazy to accept others.
Take Li Zhengan as an example. He is very good-looking and gentle. He has worked in this industry for a long time and has a lot of connections. I heard that he is also a rich second generation. As soon as he entered the news agency, Li Zhengan frequently showed good wishes to Xu You, either intentionally or unintentionally, but the woman never accepted or responded.
Originally, the appearance of a talented girl was a good story about marriage. In the end, it didn’t work.
Having dinner in the cafeteria at noon, Xu You casually brought a bowl of noodle soup, which was not very good.
She was drinking soup with a spoon when suddenly there was a person sitting in front of her. Xu You looked up, it was a little girl.
This little girl was named Fan Qi, and she came out of the same school as Xu You. However, Fan Qi joined the news agency after graduating from a bachelor’s degree. She was just entering the industry, and she was not in the same department as her, so she was half a junior.
“Senior Sister.” Fan Qi called her sadly.
Xu You said, “Are you scolded again?”
Seeing her expression, Xu You probably guessed it.
Fan Qi didn’t say anything, which was regarded as acquiescence. After eating two bites of rice, she said aggrieved: “I really regret being an editor.”
“what’s happenin?”
“Senior sister, I’m too tired.”
Opening the chatterbox, Fan Qi began to complain, “I have to collect a lot of manuscripts every day, arrange the layout, arrange the headlines, and help the journalists modify the titles of the manuscripts. You journalists don’t have to sit in work, you have time to control yourself, and come and go freely. It’s only after you submit your papers to start work. After get off work day by day, I worked overtime until wee hours yesterday. I was scolded by the editor this morning. I really regret not going to the postgraduate entrance exam. Studying is much better than working.”
“Don’t think so.”
Xu You comforted her, “Everything is difficult at the beginning, and everything must be persisted.”
“I have said many things to you many times, and you should remember it yourself. The sun is everywhere, and any professional outsider will always see only the glorious side. In fact, no one knows the darkness and labor inside. “
She stopped talking until she clicked.
Standing by the blinds of the office, looking down at the busy traffic through the gaps. Xu You walked away, remembering what Fan Qi asked her just now.
“Why did you want to be a reporter in the first place?”
Why be a reporter.
This special profession as a journalist.
It may be impulsive, but this profession does give her a lot of things she wants. She has a grasp of life and a sense of spiritual abundance. The more she touches, the more she admires some old reporters with sentimental feelings. Xu You never regrets all her decisions. In the past two years as a reporter, she has watched a lot, listened a lot, and met a lot of people. She learned how to communicate with strangers.
Although he runs frequently, he reports in depth some unknown things. But when she helped those in need, seeing the smiles on their faces was the most fulfilling and happiest time for her.
Only in this way can she feel that every day is new.
—
It’s almost time to get off work. Xu You put his cheek in one hand, yawned, and turned on the computer to browse the web.
Zhang Lili went out to work. She is very clean here, and just after the end of the month, her colleagues around are very free. There were people in the pantry chatting leisurely.
The phone on the black sandalwood table vibrated suddenly.
Xu You fumbled for the connection, but didn’t even read the name.
“Hello?! Xu Yo.”
Hearing this rough voice, she was taken aback, and reacted for a while, “Li Xiaoqiang?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
“what’s happenin?”
“Xu Yo, are you busy now? I want to trouble you with something.”
“….what’s up?”
“That’s right, wait a while.” Li Xiaoqiang’s phone seemed to leave his ears for a while, and after talking to the person next to him, his voice suddenly became louder again, “Xu Yo, can you buy some medicine for Brother Ci as a gift? past.”
“……”
Xu You was taken aback, she pushed aside the chair and got up, walked aside, “Thank you? What happened to him.”
“I heard that Brother Ci seemed to have packed up some things and went to live in the city the day before yesterday. He has been having a fever. Brother Ci never went to the hospital for injections, and Ali said he couldn’t get through the phone just now. Just thinking of you getting closer. Can you help me to see if there is anything wrong with him, and buy some medicine for him by the way.”
“…”
“Hello? Xu Yo, are you listening?!”
“…”
A few meters away, there was a voice of speaking.
“Where does he live.”
Xu You squeezed the phone tightly, rubbed his forehead, and suppressed his panic.
Li Xiaoqiang reported the name of the community and asked, “Do you know this place.”
Xu You bit her lip with her teeth. After a long while, she hummed and hung up the phone after saying a few words.
How could I not know.
This place is 50 meters away from where she lives.
Li Zhengan packed up the things on the table. As soon as he looked up, he saw a figure from the back. He shouted, “Xu Yo.”
She didn’t hear it, she didn’t know if there was something urgent, and it was gone.
Li Zhengan shook his head doubtfully in position.
Xu You went downstairs and bought some anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-fever medicines at the opposite drugstore.
She was irritated and didn’t look closely, so she just took a lot of it to checkout.
After the purchase, Xu You went to his house according to the address. That community is a newly opened real estate, and the green scenery is very good.
Xu You absently carried the plastic bag to register in the security room.
The roses and roses on the roadside are about to fail and fall into the soil.
The elevator dinged and the two doors slid open in front of her.
Xu You went out. After two steps, there was another pause. She clenched her fists and hovered twice, still stagnating.
Next to it is an iron bench. Xu You sat down and put a bag of medicine beside him.
She lowered her head and put her hands on her knees. After a while. I don’t know what I’m thinking.
At this time, a door next to it was opened, and an aunt passed by with a bag of garbage. Footsteps rattled in the quiet corridor.
When I came back, the aunt, seeing Xu You still sitting here, asked: “Little girl, who are you looking for?”
In that tone of hesitation and hesitation, Xu You explained hurriedly, “Auntie, may I ask you…Is there someone called a thank you?”
“Thank you?!” The aunt frowned and thought for a while, “I don’t know this person.”
“…” Xu You lowered his head and checked the address again.
The aunt standing at the door suddenly thought of it, turned her finger to Xu You and nodded, “Oh, what you said is that young man, he lives opposite, but she seems to be away from home often, I don’t know. Are you here now.”
Xu You nodded and said thank you.
The aunt gave her one last look and closed the door.
—
The doorbell was a few melodious ding-dongs.
There was a plastic bag hanging on her arm, and she waited for the noise to pass. There was no response inside, and Xu You waited patiently for a long time.
After a while, there was still nothing. She patted the door anxiously and pressed her ears, “Is anyone?”
It seemed quieter and quieter inside, and the strings in people’s hearts broke and tightened.
Finally, the door was opened from inside.
The impatient expression of the thank-you speech turned into surprise at the moment when he saw the people coming.
His sleepy eyes opened vigorously. A thin and beautiful face, the upper body is naked and naked, wearing only a pair of gray sports trousers. He half-opened his mouth and looked at Xu You dumbly.
Xu You’s expression is calm. There was a blue band around her white neck, and a reporter card hung on her chest.
“……”
The two looked at each other for half a second, before Xu You looked away first.
For a moment in a trance.
Thanks, bowed his head and looked at himself, and let his hand on the doorknob loose. He turned around and walked two steps into the bedroom, then hurriedly returned, pulled Xu You in, and then reached out and closed the door.
His head was dizzy, and he tried to cheer up and said, “Don’t leave, I’ll get some clothes on.”
Xu You didn’t go in, and stood at the door with his eyes down, “I’ll come to deliver the medicine to you. There is something else, so I won’t go in.”
“and many more.”
He didn’t seem to hear it. He didn’t even close the bedroom door, picked up a T-shirt and slipped it off his head, and walked out.
“I’m leaving.” Xu You put the medicine on his shoe cabinet, turned around and reached the door with his hands.
An urgent sound of blocking came from behind, “——Don’t.”
There was a pause in her movements.
“That, that.”
The thank-you speech became quieter and said: “You…you can boil some boiling water for me before leaving. I have no energy.”
—
In the kitchen, the hot water in the kettle came out, and the red light jumped green.
Xu You pulled the plug and waited for the water to calm down. She opened the cupboard, looking for a glass for water, but found that there was nothing in it.
Passing by the living room, I found that it was even more empty and lacking in popularity at all. There are very few things in the room, except for some necessary furniture, other daily items can be seen at a glance.
Xu You didn’t squint.
The light in the house was dim, except for the dim light on the bedside of the room.
Thanks for the severe illness this time, the body was originally poor, and this time it was not a high fever without warning. He estimated that he was also burnt, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality. After a while, he lay down on the bed groggy again.
Xu You called him several times, but did not respond.
She couldn’t help but glanced across the messy room, hesitated twice before stepping in.
His eyes slid across his face of thanks. His head tilted to one side, his eyebrows dragged. The lip color has become extremely pale, the cheekbones are red, and the eyelashes are slightly closed and trembling slightly.
“Thanks…you get up and go to the hospital.” She whispered to him.
“Thanks.”
“Thanks…”
“Thanks?”
Xu You bent over, turned on the lamp on the bedside table, and put his hand on his forehead.
A hot temperature came from the palm of the hand.
She didn’t care much, and went to bed on one leg to pull him up.
There was a reaction to the thank-you speech, and he opened his eyes slightly, startled, and put his hand around the back of Xu You’s neck. Thinking he was dreaming, he whispered softly, reluctantly rubbing the back of her neck with his fingers, “Xu You, let me sleep for a while and get up later.”
She slowed down, only to realize that he was really confused.
After a while, the thanking hand slid down weakly, and his wrist hung on the side of the bed. Dark hair covered his face.
She blinked and saw the light on his fingers inadvertently.
Xu You removed his eyes, and after two seconds, he set his eyes on the ring again.
Some narrow silver elements were cut off, and there was something faintly.
At that moment, she didn’t know what the devil was. Actually stretched out his hand, wanting to take off the ring.
The tender and shameful mucosa shattered silently. She didn’t control herself.
It seemed that someone gently pulled the tight strings in her mind.
Not long after the ring was worn, it was not the right size. With a gentle force, he slid all the way down the finger bones and fell to the ground.
By the faint light.
Xu You stared there.
His breathing was thin and silent. On the ring finger, there is a black tattoo of English letters.
XY.
