Stay Safe - Chapter 63

A gentle kiss.

On the first day of confirming the relationship, it was on the playground again. It was inappropriate to have a hot kiss. Besides, one of Mu Xiao and the other was a theoretical school, and the other had neither theory nor practice. It was unrealistic to want to kiss.

But the moment the tip of the tongue touched, the person was still numb like an electric shock, and it took a long time to relax.

Heart beating like a drum.

Xiao Jin still remembers how she felt at that time. She leaned against the arms of Wooden Pillow Creek and listened to her pounding heartbeat, as if there was only this inch left in the world, which was just right for the two of them to embrace each other.

Yin Xiaoli’s words interrupted Xiao Jin’s memory. She smiled and said, “You should catch up with her. Many people don’t know her, so they just look at the surface, how can they find the right medicine. Of course, the most important thing is she likes.”

Xiao Jin almost laughed out loud, but quickly restrained it, and only replied in a slightly smiling voice: “Borrow your auspicious words.”

Yin Xiaoli said: “When I was in Sicheng, there was a girl who chased her for a long time. It’s almost a year. She is a rich family daughter. If you don’t run out to rent a house, you also rent a lot of money to the door of Muzhenxi’s house. I’m not very determined, if someone chases me like this, I’ll definitely agree.”

Xiao Jin smiled: “So she didn’t agree?”

Yin Xiaoli said, “If you really agree, it’s nothing to do with you. The eldest lady is really persistent. Every day she goes to get off work and gets off work to meet by chance, rain or shine. It’s a pity…” Yin Xiaoli suddenly remembered who was on the other side of the phone. , changed his mouth and said, “No, luckily it didn’t work.”

She then quickly changed the topic and brought it back to Xiao Jin: “You said that Muzhenxi is so attractive to the eldest young lady, do you think that a child from a poor family who is hard and independent like her is very different, that’s why she is rejected Attractive. Or else I will pretend to be poor and see if I can catch a rich woman?”

Xiao Jin pondered: “No way, I didn’t know her family was in trouble at first.”

Yin Xiaoli: “That’s it?”

Xiao Jin said honestly, “She looks so amazing.”

Yin Xiaoli laughed: “Me too, who doesn’t like to make friends with good-looking people.”

Xiao Jin didn’t forget to praise her: “You look good too.”

Yin Xiaoli said modestly: “Wherever I am, I am generally good-looking, not as good-looking as the two of you, but with two such good-looking friends, I am happier than myself.”

Yin Xiaoli then revealed to her some information obtained from Wooden Pillow Creek, and Xiao Jin listened intently.

For example, Muzhenxi suddenly took a picture of an empty milk cup for her two days ago, without a text. Yin Xiaoli sent a series of question marks, and Muzhenxi asked her if she had any good milk.

Xiao Jin laughed.

However, she decided to go back to check the milk brand, and then recommend it to Muzhenxi, because she was ill-considered last time.

For example, she asked Wooden Pillow Creek about the progress of her relationship, and Wooden Pillow Creek replied that everything was going well.

Xiao Jin was relieved.

After that, Yin Xiaoli went to work, and before hanging up the phone, she repeatedly told her to make significant progress – she didn’t ask for anything else. If they were really together, I hope Xiao Jin and Muzhenxi would not be sneaky and keep talking. Neither said a word.

Xiao Jin said yes.

Xiao Jin put her phone in her pocket, returned to the office from the empty and quiet corridor of the office building, sat down, opened the drawer, glanced at the brand of milk she was drinking, and took a photo.

Muzhenxi has been working very hard recently. Xiao Jin summoned up the courage to call her last night. The other party gave her a short ten seconds: “I’m working overtime at the company, what’s the matter?”

It was already eleven o’clock at night.

Xiao Jin said, “No, you are busy.”

Wooden Pillow Stream: “Well.” Then he said, “Go to bed early, good night.”

Xiao Jin said, “Good night.” Before she hung up the phone, she hurriedly asked, “Have you had dinner?”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “Have eaten, thank you.”

Xiao Jin said good night again.

Ten full seconds, no more, no less.

Xiao Jin deleted the picture selected in the text box, and put the mobile phone on the desktop. Let’s wait until Muzhenxi is done with these few days before telling her about these trivial things.

She curled the corners of her lips and took out a book from the bookshelf on the left to read.

——When I was in Sicheng, there was a girl who chased her for a long time. It’s almost a year. I’d like to be a rich family daughter. If I didn’t run out to rent a house, I even rented a lot of money to the door of Muzhenxi’s house.

——The eldest lady is really persistent. She goes to get off work and goes to work every day, rain or shine.

Yin Xiaoli’s chatting words crashed into his mind.

Xiao Jin’s movement of flipping through the books was abrupt, and his face suddenly changed.

The phone beside the table buzzed twice.

Yin Xiaoli finished typing a paragraph like flowing water, and after a period, she touched the phone to unlock it. It was a message from Xiao Jin.

[You just said that in Sicheng, there was a girl chasing her, what year did it happen? 】

Yin Xiaoli was confused when she saw the jargon, but she thought about it seriously, and typed: [I can’t remember the specifics, but we came to Lincheng soon after that, maybe four or five years or five or six. years ago]

Xiao Jin: [They live in the same building? 】

Yin Xiaoli: [Yes]

She waited for a minute, Xiao Jin didn’t reply, Yin Xiaoli blinked in confusion and continued to write her press release.

After a long time, the opposite side came back and said: [Thank you]

Yin Xiaoli didn’t know what kind of thanks she said, but thinking about the last time she ran to deliver medicine, she could thank her, so she didn’t take it to heart, and politely replied: [You’re welcome, I’ll continue working]

***

“Mr. Xiao, what’s the matter with you? Are you uncomfortable?”

Xiao Jin’s pale and unusual face caught the attention of the female teacher opposite. She looked over with concern, and put down the pen in her hand, as if she was about to come over to check.

“It’s alright, I have a stomachache.” Xiao Jin took back his lost demeanor bit by bit and said, “I’ll just lie down on the table for a while.”

The female teacher said, “Then you are really uncomfortable and tell me, I will accompany you to the school hospital.”

“I will, thank you.” Xiao Jin’s nails sank deeply into the palm of his hand, as if in this way he could barely restrain the boundless chill that was bred in his heart and kept spreading.

She crouched on the desk, covering her face with her arms.

The female teacher wrote the lesson plan for a while, and out of the corner of the eye seemed to see Xiao Jin’s shoulders trembling slightly. The female teacher called Xiao Jin softly, Xiao Jin buried her head and mumbled vaguely, indicating that she was okay.

The female teacher stopped asking.

When Xiao Jin sat up, the female teacher glanced at the lower right corner of the computer, lay down for more than an hour, and asked, “Are you better?”

“It’s better.” Xiao Jin forcefully blinked his eyes twice, closed the book that was stained with water in front of him, and said indifferently, “I’ll wash my face first, and then go to the teaching building for class.”

The female teacher waved her hand: “Go, go.”

Xiao Jin looked in the mirror at the sink for a while, her eyes were a little red, but if she didn’t look carefully, she couldn’t see anything. She sighed softly and patted some cold water on her face to clear her mind.

The matter is over, and now it is meaningless to investigate in addition to only adding to the troubles.

***

“Boss, do you want coffee?”

“Yes.” The wooden pillow stream didn’t lift his head, and handed the cup next to the computer table up, and Sister Corgi took it over.

Wooden pillow creek’s milk plan declared bankruptcy in less than a day. She drank coffee again, not because she didn’t take care of her body, but because without coffee to refresh her, she couldn’t bear it after staying up late and working overtime. How is it now.

She yawned a while before going to work, and slept only three hours last night. Mu Zhenxi took the mobile phone aside, and saw the last text message he had chatted with Xiao Jin, four days ago, and ended the topic with a good night.

Three nights ago, she called herself without saying a word, and she didn’t have time to go to the coffee shop these days.

Mu Zhenxi stared at the screen for a while, his eyes fixed, and he went out with his mobile phone.

Sister Corgi came in with coffee and saw that there was no one over the wooden pillow creek, and asked, “Where’s the boss?”

A colleague replied: “It seems to be out on the phone.”

Not long after the corgi girl was trained by the wooden pillow stream, the idea of ​​gossip was suppressed as soon as she started, and she sat back to her seat cowardly.

Muzhenxi went to the company’s terrace, pulled the glass door, and dug out Xiao Jin’s number from the address book. Before dialing out, she checked the time. According to Xiao Jin’s previous habit, she should go to school on the subway or by car. on the way?

Could this time be inappropriate?

But I don’t call now, I’ve been busy all day and I can’t find time. I haven’t contacted her for several days, and I’m still so indifferent to her phone calls. Although she didn’t mean it, Xiao Jin wouldn’t cry secretly at home, right?

Mu Zhenxi shook his head and denied this idea. He should not cry anymore, but he will always be unhappy. He has to take the initiative once in a while, and he must have a serious attitude to start over.

Wooden Pillow Creek tapped Xiao Jin’s name with his finger.

One is born, the second is cooked.

Wooden Pillow Creek stopped nervously grabbing the railing, just took a light breath, listened to the voice in the receiver attentively, and turned to the patio door, lest anyone suddenly come in and she won’t notice.

“Hello.” Xiao Jin picked it up, and joy was easily discernible in his voice.

Muzhenxi looked down at the ground, grabbed the corner of his clothes with his fingers unconsciously, and cleared his throat: “What are you doing?”

“I just got to school and I’m walking.”

Muzhenxi listened carefully and asked strangely, “Why don’t you make a sound when you walk?”

Xiao Jin usually wears shoes with a little heel and makes a rattling sound when stepping on the ground.

“I stopped to answer your call when I saw you.” Xiao Jin deliberately joked, “What? Do you like me to answer your phone while walking?”

Wooden pillow creek covered his lips: “cough.”

Xiao Jin walked under the tree and made the sound of his heels hitting the ground.

Muzhenxi immediately said nervously: “Watch the car, watch the people, your school’s takeout delivery rampage, I was almost scratched by the car when I went back. Otherwise, come back to me when you get to the office.” The empty Pillow Creek was empty in an instant.

Xiao Jin remained silent, walking around the tree.

Da-da-da, da-da-da.

Mu Zhenxi guessed that she might want to coax her by herself, so she agreed and said softly, “Be obedient.”

Xiao Jin burst out laughing.

Wooden Pillow Stream: “???”

Xiao Jin concealed the fact that he was playing with her, and said, “It’s nothing, I’m obedient, I’ll stop now.”

The corners of Muzhenxi’s lips rose, and she lowered her voice and said softly, “Good boy.”

Her voice was low and sweet, as if whispering in her ear, Xiao Jin’s heart trembled slightly, she took a breath, pursed her lips and said, “Say it again.”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “Huh? What did you say?”

Xiao Jin said, “Just now.”

Wooden pillow creek made an “oh” and lengthened his voice: “Pay attention to the car, pay attention to the people?”

Xiao Jin emphasized: “One word.”

Wooden Pillow Creek said, “Oh, I forgot.”

Xiao Jin was originally angry, but when she heard her playful “Oops”, she felt cute again, and she couldn’t get angry at once. After coming to Japan for a long time, she refused to say anything. In the future, Xiao Jin will ask her to say it honestly until she is satisfied.

Xiao Jin took a deep breath.

A few colleagues from the department came over from the terrace. Muxianxi and the other party looked at each other and smiled politely. Unexpectedly, the other party came straight over, opened the glass door of the terrace, and went to the stone beside one of the stone tables. Sitting on the bench, playing with the phone in both hands.

The terrace is not a private place. Wooden Pillow Stream can call and other people can come and relax. Wooden Pillow Stream vaguely heard something Xiao Jin said. She just focused on her colleagues. She didn’t hear it, so she asked Said: “What did you just say?”

Xiao Jin said, “Are you free on Sunday? I want to have dinner with you.”

Muzhenxi bit his lip, struggled for a moment, and agreed: “There should be, you can give me the specific address and time.” It’s been a while since I’ve seen him. After dinner, meeting is the most important thing.

Xiao Jin still wanted to continue chatting with her. Muzhenxi had run out of time here. As she walked to the office, she said, “I’m going to work. Go to the office and walk slowly.”

Xiao Jin swallowed the words and spit out a word: “… um.”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “See you on Sunday.”

Xiao Jin: “By Sunday, if I miss you, can I call you?”

Wooden pillow creek: “This… I may not be able to receive it.”

Just as Xiao Jin was about to say it’s okay, Muzhenxi then said solemnly, “What if I’m taking a shower, don’t you think?”

Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment before he responded: “You!”

After hanging up the phone, Muxinxi sat on the seat and propped his forehead and laughed for a long time.

After Mu Zhenxi made fun of her, he quickly pressed the hang up button. Xiao Jin listened to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, his anger dissipated, and the curvature of the corners of his lips could not be suppressed no matter what.

Wooden Pillow Creek is really… so lively and cute, thinking about her.

Xiao Jin grinded his back molars.

Xiao Jin’s efficiency is very fast. The time and location of the meal appointment in the morning was sent an hour later, and he went out at 6 o’clock on Sunday night, a Cantonese restaurant.

Expectation is a very magical thing, every minute and every second spent is infected with a mood that belongs to a certain person.

As soon as Muzhenxi came home from get off work on Saturday, he cooked and ate, took a shower, and slept. He raced against time to do it all in one go. He slept until the next afternoon, and made up all the sleep he hadn’t slept this week.

Wooden Pillow Stream took a selfie in the mirror, and the faint dark circles under the eyes that appeared after staying up late disappeared without a trace because of the full sleep, and the fingertips poked, not to mention the exaggeration of blowing a bullet, at least it was full of flexibility.

Muzhenxi put on a light makeup for herself with satisfaction, opened the sliding door of the wardrobe, frowned and tried it from three o’clock in the afternoon to five in the afternoon. The bed was full of clothes, and finally she managed to choose the right one. She sat on the sofa in the living room. , staring at the direction of the bay window, doing nothing to kill time.

She and Xiao Jin are neighbors, so they don’t need to drive two cars when they go out to eat. They made an appointment in advance to call Xiao Jin when the wooden pillow stream is ready, and Xiao Jin will go downstairs to pick it up.

Muzhenxi dressed herself up early, and was embarrassed to call Xiao Jin an hour earlier, as if she was in a hurry.

At 5:00, Xiao Jin’s phone came in and asked her, “I’m fine, how long will it take you?”

Wooden pillow creek burst into fireworks in his heart, and asked in a reserved voice, “Isn’t it six o’clock?”

“Actually…” Xiao Jin paused and said frankly, “Actually, I can leave at four o’clock. I have to endure to ask you until now.”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “…”

Xiao Jin’s style is still as strong as ever. On the first day they were together, Muzhenxi had been thinking about it for a long time before asking “Can I kiss you?” Xiao Jin immediately replied “Yes”, so anxious that Muzhenxi suspected her If she dared not to kiss her, Xiao Jin could rush up to kiss her.

She is so active, and Muzhenxi will be hypocritical if she dawdled: “Then I’ll be fine.”

Xiao Jin took a breath and said directly, “Go downstairs.”

Mu Zhenxi was stunned: “Huh?”

Xiao Jin said, “I’m downstairs in your house, now.”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “Ah! I’ll go down immediately.”

Muzhenxi suddenly got up, changed his shoes and closed the door, all in one go.

Xiao Jin was in front of the 17 buildings, eager to see through, a figure trotting out appeared in his sight, Xiao Jin stepped forward in three or two steps, rushed to the door, and Muzhenxi arrived at the same time as her.

Looking at each other, smiling at each other.

Xiao Jin first noticed the strangeness of this picture, one inside and the other outside, a bit like a prison visit. She restrained her overly bright smile a little, and pointed to the access control with a smile.

Wooden pillow stream woke up like a dream, skillfully took out the card beep to open the door, and strode out from the inside.

Xiao Jin retreated to the bottom of the steps, his brows were curved, and the wooden pillow stream also came down from the steps, stood in front of her, half lowered his head and looked at her, trying to control but unable to control the awkward look of the corner of his mouth.

In an instant, the time and space are reversed, and the memory flows back.

It seems that everything has changed, but nothing has changed.

Xiao Jin took a step to the side, and naturally put his hands on Muxianxi’s arm, turned his head and put his chin on her shoulder, raised his face and said, “It will take twenty minutes to drive, will you come or me?”

The warm breath of her speech was spit in the neck of the wooden pillow stream.

“I’ll drive.” Muxianxi said, lifting her chin gently and returning it to its original position.

Xiao Jin smiled slyly and tightened her arm.

Wooden Pillow Creek twitched, but did not twitch, glanced at her meaningfully, and said nothing.

When approaching the gate of the community, Xiao Jin suddenly looked at the road and said, “The car is parked in the underground garage, why should we come out?”

Wooden Pillow Creek: “…”

She turned around and was about to go back, Xiao Jin dragged her back: “You can also enter the garage from the outside, but it’s too far to go back now.” The two circled in a large circle, entered through the entrance outside the garage, and walked along the wall step by step go inside.

The entrance and exit of the community garage are the same. There are often cars coming in and out. It is not safe for them to walk side by side. Xiao Jin took the initiative to let go of Muxinxi’s arm, but Muxinxi took her by the wrist instead.

“You go behind me and step aside.” Wooden pillow creek’s voice was low, and his fingers were tightly clenched.

Xiao Jin looked at her back and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Mu Zhenxi just turned around at this moment, it should be to confirm whether she was obedient and obedient, just to catch Xiao Jin’s smile, she turned her eyes indifferently, but smiled from an angle that Xiao Jin couldn’t see.

Xiao Jin’s white BMW has never been in Muxianxi since the car accident, but she has seen this car speeding on the road countless times in the cafe and disappearing into the corner.

Xiao Jin unlocked the car door, handed the key to her, and went around to the co-pilot.

Mu Zhenxi sat in the driver’s seat for a while, slowly lit the fire, and rubbed the steering wheel with both hands. She always felt that the seat and steering wheel had Xiao Jin’s body temperature, which gave her a very different feeling.

Xiao Jin pretended not to notice the brilliance in her eyes, turned her face a little and quietly noticed her from the corner of her eye.

Muxinxi reversed the car and drove the car out of the parking space, Xiao Jin turned to look out the window.

“Navigation,” Wood Pillow Creek said.

Xiao Jin called up the navigation route on the mobile phone map, placed it on the mobile phone stand, clicked start, and an electronic female voice sounded in the empty carriage.

Too quiet.

Wooden pillow Brook has not disappeared from the shadow of this car, and drives very carefully, and has no time to be distracted to find a topic to chat.

Xiao Jin turned on the car stereo.

Wooden Pillow Creek listened to a few words, it was a folk song. I thought to myself: Is this a hobby?

Xiao Jin expected what she was thinking, and explained, “Just listen to it, I usually listen to everything, and it just happened to be this song.”

Wooden Pillow Stream: “Oh.” She glanced down at the song title again, wrote it down, and thought: I’ll go back to find out.

Xiao Jin asked, “What do you like to listen to? Except for jazz, you play the same playlist every time I ride in your car.”

Wooden Pillow Creek stopped at a red light and thought about it for a while: “I don’t like it very much. What I liked before and what I like now.”

Xiao Jin tilted his head and said, “she? Jay Chou? Film and television hits?”

Muzhenxi said concisely: “Well.” When I had nothing to do, I wanted to refresh myself, so I pulled out a playlist and played it in a loop. Anyway, they sang a lot of songs, and I could listen to them all afternoon without repeating them.

Xiao Jin touched the side rail of the bag, and when it was empty, she opened the bag and simply took out a pen and paper. As a doctor of liberal arts, Teacher Xiao carries a pen and paper with her.

Wooden Pillow Creek looked at her writing on the paper and asked, “What are you memorizing?”

Xiao Jin didn’t lift his head: “I’ll go back and put two new playlists for you in the car.”

Mu Zhenxi mumbled, “Actually, it’s unnecessary.” She didn’t usually get a chance to ride in Xiao Jin’s car, wasting her memory.

Xiao Jin listened, but couldn’t hear clearly: “What are you muttering about?”

“It’s nothing.” Didn’t he secretly want to remember what she was listening to, and compared his heart to his heart, Mu Zhenxi made an excuse and said, “I’m just thirsty and want to drink some water.”

She stretched out her hand to the storage table, her fingertips just touched the cold bottle of mineral water, the red light turned green, and the wooden pillow brook retracted her hand, put it on the steering wheel again, released the foot brake and drove through the intersection.

A minute later, a bottle of water that had been unscrewed was reflected in the corner of the light, and further down, it was Xiao Jin’s slender, white hand holding the mineral water bottle.

Xiao Jin said softly, “Didn’t you just say you were thirsty? Water.”

Wooden Pillow Creek took a sip and said, “Thank you.”

He was smiling when he came back.

This smile is not the kind of polite and polite smile, showing an indescribable beautiful feeling.

Xiao Jin re-tightened the bottle cap and put it back on the shelf, recalling the smile of Wooden Pillow Creek, and she smiled too.

She suddenly felt that the two of them looked a bit like old women and old wives who had been quiet in time.

Before falling in love, the old wives and the old wives first?

The author has something to say: Small Theater:

Wooden Pillow Creek: I want to drink water.

Xiao Jin: What water do you drink, drink my water!
