To Your Island - Chapter 56
The difference between Wang Jiexiang and Yin Xian is that when she has a considerable salary, she gradually saves money, and the first expensive thing she buys is a mobile phone.
——With a mobile phone, she can contact Yin Xian anytime, anywhere.
Don’t look at Wang Jiexiang’s frequent complaints that Yin Xian wants to save money and initiates text messages. She doesn’t consider the phone bill at all. As long as she is free and has nothing to do at home, she will text him.
【doing what? busy? 】
[Lunch time! I ate chicken drumstick rice and added a braised egg. Workaholic, it’s almost time for you to eat! 】
[Miss you, Yin Xian. 】
[I am home from get off work, do you have anything to eat? 】
[Are there overtime work today? If you can come back before eight o’clock, I will wait for you to eat. As a preview, there will be your favorite chili-fried beef for dinner. 】
Regarding Wang Jiexiang’s unrestrained text message bombing, Yin Xian usually only responded to what was necessary.
For example, he read all the above content, and only the last one she sent was replied.
[Yes, don’t wait. 】
Not long after the text message was sent, his cell phone rang again.
[Well, then you can eat something by yourself if you work late. Call me before going home, I’m hot. 】
Yin Xian pressed off the phone screen and continued to work.
Within two months of buying a mobile phone, Wang Jiexiang’s typing speed has increased by leaps and bounds. The reason for such progress is not how smart she is. The main reason is that she has too much nonsense.
Work in department stores can be regarded as idle, and cosmetics counters generally don’t come across full of customers.
Without a guest, Wang Jiexiang will go to learn makeup skills with other cabinet sisters after everything at hand is done. After going back and forth, she got acquainted with the salesperson who sold perfume next door. At noon time for lunch, the cabinet sister named Qianqian would always ask her to eat with her.
According to Qianqian’s observation, Wang Jiexiang routinely took out his mobile phone to type before eating.
“What about texting again?” she asked.
“Yes.” Wang Jiexiang finished typing, clicked send, and put the phone in his pocket.
Qianqian sniffed the breath of gossip: “Look at your mobile phone all day long, who do you send text messages so frequently?”
Wang Jiexiang bit the marinated egg and blinked at her.
“My boyfriend.”
“Huh? Do you have a boyfriend?”
Qianqian looked at her face with a surprised expression: “You look very young.”
“I’m twenty years old. I met my boyfriend when I was eighteen, and we were together for two years.”
“So, you met him not long after you first came to the city?” Qianqian knew a little about Wang Jiexiang’s background, and she was suddenly curious: “How did you meet? Tell me your love story.”
Love story, this word makes Wang Jiexiang happy.
She swallowed the remaining half of the braised egg, cleared her throat, and said to Qianqian.
“It was a winter two years ago. I didn’t have money to pay the rent, and the landlord asked me to move out. I had nowhere to go, but he gave me a helping hand…”
After lunch is over, Wang Jiexiang’s experience has also been shared.
She packs up her lunch, and prepares to go back to work. Qianqian is immersed in the aftermath of her story, still unfinished.
“I can hear that you love him very much. In your narration, he is as good as a bodhisattva.”
“You really take the initiative, I feel like you take the initiative in everything, and I can’t stand a boy with such a personality.”
When she said this, Wang Jiexiang refused.
“He took the initiative to treat me well.”
Qianqian raised her eyebrows: “What’s the good thing?”
Wang Jiexiang listed many things Yin Xian did for herself: buying a refrigerator and stocking vegetables to let her eat more, squeezing carrot juice for her to drink, taking her to the doctor, waiting for her to get off work, and accompany her to the public bathroom…
Qianqian did not change her mind after hearing a lot of her talk.
“Well… the more you listen to, I think he is like your elder, guiding you, educating you, whether you are sick, whether you eat or not.”
Wang Jiexiang puffed his cheeks and immediately refuted her.
“Otherwise, if two people live together and live their daily lives, what else should they care about?”
Qianqian tried to describe the weirdness she felt.
“Yes, young couples, young people’s love, should get along with a little more romance and passion. I was in love at your age, when two people were lingering in love to death. What you talk about is very lifelike. , Your boyfriend is kind to you, but everything is a bit too calm, too cold.”
These remarks are based on personal preference. Qianqian saw that Wang Jiexiang’s complexion was not very good, and she immediately reacted: she said too much.
“Look at me, how did you substitute yourself.”
Qianqian smiled, deliberately changing to a relaxed topic suitable for gossip.
“You are young and live together. Can you survive? You…in terms of life, harmony?”
Wang Jiexiang didn’t hear the words in her: “What life?”
Qianqian pushed her arm: “That’s life.”
With a mysterious smile, she deliberately lowered the volume: “About that, he has to take the initiative, right?”
Wang Jiexiang didn’t understand why she suddenly winked her eyebrows, with a strange tone.
“Our lives are harmonious, I’m having a good time.”
Seeing her proud and open face, Qianqian wondered if she didn’t understand what she meant.
Attached to Wang Jiexiang’s ear, with her hand covering her mouth, she fully expressed the meaning of her previous question.
At this moment, Wang Jiexiang heard clearly.
Qianqian removed her hand and her face blushed instantly.
Her expression seemed to be the first time she heard these things.
Qianqian waited for her answer.
“No,” Wang Jiexiang said.
“No,” she opened her mouth in surprise: “You have lived together for two years.”
“but……”
Wang Jiexiang explained without help: “We sleep together every day.”
“A bed?”
“Yes.”
“Then none of you happened…”
If we continue to talk, it might not end well. Qianqian swallowed her lips: “Maybe he is upright, or you were too young when you were together.”
The more she helped Yuanchang, the more guilty Wang Jiexiang was.
“We are eighteen years old together, now twenty. Well, do normal couples have? Couples who have lived together for two years.”
Qianqian nodded.
She fell into deep thought…
Wang Jiexiang is worried.
On this day, Yin Xian discovered something was wrong with her as soon as she returned home.
“Are you late home? Why didn’t you remove your makeup.”
Wang Jiexiang touched his face.
“Makeup? Removed. Just put on some lipstick.”
He didn’t break her and went straight to the dinner table for dinner.
There were two pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, asking her to eat first, but she still waited for him to come home.
While eating, Wang Jiexiang was also absent-minded.
Yin Xian took the vegetables in one hand, held the bowl in the other, chewed the vegetables in his mouth, and glanced at her.
“Yin Xian!”
She stretched out her hand suddenly, dragged his hand away from the edge of the bowl, and held it between her hands.
He stopped chewing for unknown reasons.
Wang Jiexiang looked at him and asked in a serious tone.
“Are we boyfriend and girlfriend? You still treat me as a roommate who lives together?”
“…”
Yin Xian thought she was bored and ignored her.
After the shower, the two returned from the bathroom.
Yin Xian sat on the edge of the bed and wiped his hair, while Wang Jiexiang sat on his lap abruptly.
He took off the towel and saw that she didn’t know when she changed into summer pajamas.
The lipstick is still unremoved, but it is more red.
“Yin Xian.” She embraced his neck.
“what’s up?”
Wang Jiexiang circled his hair with his fingers, going around.
“Wipe my hair,” she said delicately, adding a wink.
Yin Xian’s expression didn’t make waves.
“Okay, sit down.”
“Don’t don’t.”
Her legs swayed, her throat narrowed, and she acted selfishly.
“People are going to sit here.”
“why?”
She drew a circle on his chest with her fingers: “Too far away from you, my heart will be cold.”
“Of course it’s cold in summer pajamas.”
Wang Jiexiang was brought by the strength of Yin Xian’s getting up, and she fell unsteadily on the bed and fell on all fours.
Without looking at her, he just stood up and went to the closet to take out his thick pajamas.
The nightgown was khaki with a big bald monkey on it. Because the pajamas are thick and warm enough, she often wears them… But today, Wang Jiexiang doesn’t want to wear it at all.
Regardless of her likes and dislikes, Yin Xian forcibly helped her get dressed, buttoned her up, and the buttons intimately all the way to the top of her neck.
Wang Jiexiang sat cross-legged on the bed, staring brightly, sulking.
He stood beside her and silently threw a big towel on her head.
“What are you doing!” She clenched a fist angrily.
He replied: “wipe your hair.”
Covering her head, Yin Xian’s hands began to move from left to right, rubbing quickly and violently.
Wait for him to take off the towel.
Wang Jiexiang, who was wearing a fried hair, also got fried.
“Hey!” She stood upright with her hips akimbo, and yelled at him angrily: “The towel got on my lipstick! I don’t look good!”
Yin Xian immediately lowered his head to check the towel.
Wang Jiexiang gave up completely when his strategy failed.
Lie on the bed in the big monkey pajamas, with her back turned to Yin Xian, lying in the innermost part of the bed.
He washed the towels and went into the house, turned off the lights and went to bed.
in the dark.
She asked: “To be honest, do you treat me as a brother?”
He was drowsy and answered vaguely, “What kind of brother? Who helped me fight and drank with me? Your small body is not qualified to be my brother.”
Wang Jiexiang got up and kicked Yin Xian vigorously.
“Wang Jiexiang!”
He has thick skin and no pain at all, but he is completely drowsy by her.
Wang Jiexiang hummed heavily, lay back to his position, and went to sleep under the quilt.
the next day.
Business at the makeup counter is good, Wang Jiexiang with a smile on his face, working all morning, Qianqian did not find a chance to talk to her.
meal time.
Before sitting down for dinner, Qianqian couldn’t wait to ask her: “How’s it going?”
In fact, there is no need to ask.
In private time, Wang Jiexiang’s mood was all written on his face.
“You haven’t been in for two years. There must be a big problem. I guessed your failure last night.”
Qianqian is full of enthusiasm: “Come on, tell me! I have experience, I will give you advice.”
Wang Jiexiang sighed and told her what happened at home yesterday.
Qianqian propped her chin and looked like a doctor listening to the patient’s description of her condition.
In the end, Wang Jiexiang, like a patient, clenched his hands into fists, waiting nervously for her analysis.
“This is probably the situation, what do you think?”
Qianqian didn’t say the conclusion first, and asked some other questions: “Are there any other women around him?”
“I don’t know, you mean…”
Qianqian nodded.
Wang Jiexiang decisively denied her speculation.
“Impossible, he is very busy at work, working overtime every day, so busy that he often has no time to eat.”
“Work overtime every day, no time to eat.”
Grabbing two words in her words, Qianqian repeated it emphatically.
“Are you sure you are in love?
“Ok.”
“Or…” Qianqian said astonishingly: “Take him to the hospital, right?”
Wang Jiexiang was puzzled: “What are you looking at?”
“Andrology.”
She informed her of the conclusion drawn from her own experience.
“If it’s not for someone outside, it may be overworked, causing the body to be weak.”
Wang Jiexiang was confused.
Qianqian patted her on the shoulder unexpectedly.
“Don’t think that you must be healthy when you are young. Be more concerned about your boyfriend, and treat your boyfriend if you are sick.
at night.
Yin Xian went home.
Wang Jiexiang sat at the table thinking about things.
Today, she was not like yesterday, and she made a lot of mess, saving him a lot of heart.
But, what should come will always come.
Before going to bed, he turned off the bedside lamp.
Wang Jiexiang dragged the quilt to Yin Xian’s side.
“Let’s talk.” He knew not to let her say, she couldn’t sleep well.
“you……”
She gritted her teeth and said directly: “Which day are you going to rest? Would you like to go to the hospital?”
“why?”
The specific Wang Jiexiang is hard to say.
After hesitating for a while, she hesitated and said: “I talked about relationships with my colleagues… Then, maybe… we should go to the doctor.”
Yin Xian heard that someone else had said something to her that caused her to be abnormal in these two days.
“Your ears are too soft,” he said.
Wang Jiexiang was noncommittal.
Fortunately, he couldn’t see her expression in the dark night, and she didn’t have to worry about her face.
“Then, go or not?”
He asked her back: “What do you think I should see?”
She was silent for half a minute and whispered.
“…A disease that is not interested in my body.”
There was no sound from Yin Xian.
Wang Jiexiang suddenly felt that the night was not good again, and she wanted to see his expression at the moment.
She knew he was not asleep.
After a long time, he said: “I am not sick. I am in good health, in all aspects.”
“Oh.” Wang Jiexiang answered dullly.
She didn’t seem to be going to talk any more, so Yin Xian stopped the topic.
“Go to bed and go to work tomorrow.”
Wang Jiexiang discovered that many of the problems between her and Yin Xian would eventually turn into a question: Does he love me?
She can answer Qianqian without thinking: Well, we are in love.
But sometimes she cannot convince herself.
Her heart is vacillating. Sometimes she is full of confidence in their love and finds it very strong, sometimes the opposite.
Wearing high heels and a smile with eight teeth, Wang Jiexiang stood upright in front of the counter, but she was listless in her heart.
With unclear things in her mind, she thought hard.
One day. Yin Xian’s phone hasn’t been so quiet for a long time.
This is abnormal, making him spend more time, press and brighten the phone screen, check the time, check the inbox.
It was the time when Wang Jiexiang got off work, and her text messages still didn’t come.
Yin Xian was irritated and edited a [? 】Send to the past.
After about half an hour, when he couldn’t help but want to go outside and make a call, Wang Jiexiang finally replied.
[I thought about it all day. 】
Yin Xian breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the reply.
Wang Jiexiang didn’t think about what to say.
With a bitter face and holding the phone, she felt embarrassed and inferior.
Unlike Yin Xian’s previous slow response speed, he responded to her last message fairly quickly.
[What do you think? 】
Turning on the screen and seeing these three words, Wang Jiexiang regretted throwing the phone out.
Why do you tell him? What should I do now?
He returned so quickly, was he waiting for her over there?
She held her breath and quickly typed a line of words on the screen.
[Thinking, when will you do it with me. Love? 】
Breaking the jar to the ground, Wang Jiexiang sent the message.
Throwing the phone aside, she buried her head in her hands, frustrated.
Almost ten seconds after she sent the letter, the phone rang a text message alert tone.
How dare Wang Jiexiang touch the hot potato, thinking: According to Yin Xian’s character, he must shirk again, maybe he will be scolded.
She left the phone with a sad face and went to cook herself dinner.
After dinner, almost calm down, Wang Jiexiang came back to look at the phone.
Yin Xian’s reply was simple, only two words.
【tonight. 】
…
All in all, Wang Jiexiang thanked Qianqian.
