Waiting for You in a City - Chapter 17
Finally, Xu Qin suffered a cold. I do n’t know whether it ’s the cold weather or the slackness of the spirit after the intense work is over, which leads to a decline in resistance.
Xu Qin didn’t want to take an injection to take medicine. He said that it would be better if he caught a cold and he would improve immunity. She just wanted to sleep for two or three days in a drowsy, do not wake up, do not think, just make up for sleep.
Fu Wenying said she was fooling around and asked the family doctor to hang the bottle.
Xu Qin closed his eyes and fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already dark. The light in the room was dim, and a floor lamp was lit by the sofa.
Meng Yanchen sat on the sofa reading a book, and Xiao Yixiao fell asleep backwards.
Xu Qin looked at Meng Yanchen’s warm eyebrows and looked quietly for a long time; when Meng Yanchen raised his eyes, he met Xu Qin’s eyes.
“Woke up?”
“Ok.”
“feel better now?”
“Ok.”
Meng Yanchen came over to sit by the bed: “Nose is still very heavy.”
Xu Qinwang glanced at the bottle: “If you get an injection like this, it will be better tomorrow.”
Meng Yanchen saw her hand exposed outside the quilt, but wanted to touch it, but did not.
There are flowers and plush toys beside the bed. Every time she is sick, Xiao Yixiao will send her a plush toy, but this flower …
“Who sent it?”
Meng Yanchen: “Jiang Yu.”
Xu Qin: “How does he know?”
“Mum told his mother.” Meng Yanchen spoke very briefly and was not welcome.
What if it is not welcome. He was also arranged by Fu Wenying for a blind date, once a week, unable to refuse. Either the minister’s house or the political commissar’s house, there is no other choice.
Meng Yanchen asked: “Do you like Jiang Yu?”
Xu Qin stared at the dripping liquid in the infusion tube and said, “I don’t like it, but I don’t hate it either.”
Meng Yanchen asked: “It means-can you accept to marry him?”
Xu Qin’s eyes were fixed and he stared at the medicine drop: “Neither can he.”
Unrestrained, Meng Yanchen sat for a moment and said, “I will go down and serve you porridge.”
He left, and the room fell into silence. Xu Qin exhaled and was about to close his eyes and heard Xiao Yixiao’s lazy voice: “Since I can accept it, why are you still unhappy?”
Xu Qin turned his head: “You didn’t sleep?”
Xiao Yixiao sat up and rubbed his eyes: “Wake up by you.” He didn’t come, and he sat under the floor lamp of the sofa, his face caught in the halo, and he vomited lightly. Can’t you be so bitter? See if you can do it, there is a lot of enjoyment in life. ”
Xu Qin didn’t turn around: “Meng Yanchen-I have looked away for a long time. When my mother asked me to change my surname, I knew what she meant. He came to persuade me that I had no other ideas about him.
Xiao Yixiao: “You change the surname back to–”
“Not for him.” Xu Qin interrupted.
The needle fell for a while.
Xiao Yixiao pondered for a moment, and asked, “Do you really like Song Yan’s kid?”
Xu Qin silently said for a while, “I don’t know.” She sniffed her nose. “I don’t know if it’s because I can’t get it, or because I’m too dull-I don’t know.”
“I like it very much.” Xiao Yixiao sighed for a long time, and felt very tricky. “Yes, your brother will analyze and analyze it for you.”
He came to her bed and sat on the carpet, holding his legs flush with her line of sight: “Qin Qin, I ask you, what is his monthly salary?-Firefighter I think about it, five or six thousand?”
Xu Qin argued: “He is the captain.”
“Yeah. Okay, count him seven or eight thousand. Our first-tier cities. Do you know how much white-collar workers earn on the financial street next to your home? After working four or five years, the salary has risen to at least 20,000 or 30,000. Girls raised by ordinary people If you have a master ’s degree in university, you ’re good enough. If you look at the firefighter, her parents still object, can you make me believe it or not? Even college students who are not so selective, like to go to the car rental taxi stall Yes, his parents can agree? Class is something that you ca n’t usually see. Once you talk about marriage, it ’s the cruelest hurdle. Do you understand? Do n’t blame your mother, she sees better than you: love flickers Over, reality— ”
“But I only felt alive when I saw him.” She interjected without emotion, and Xiao Yixiao shut her mouth suddenly, as if everything she just said had shattered into soot, and there was no strength.
“What are you talking about?” Xiao Yixiao asked, his face serious.
“Do you understand that feeling? Someone pinched his neck and pressed it into the water, but wanted to surface again and take a breath.” She looked at him and quickly pulled the corner of her mouth lightly, carrying her own Taunt and pity, “It feels like-obviously a dead person, but still want to live again.”
Even once.
Like when I was young, live again.
must.
In Xu Qin’s memory, she always makes Song Yan angry, but he always forgives her again and again.
Why did you stay with Song Yan at the beginning, maybe you want his protection, maybe to be a feast for men, or maybe she was too depressed.
Either way, the ultimate motivation is impure.
Song Yan is kind to her, she knows it.
Does she care about Song Yan? care. Otherwise, she will not tell him: “I am not Meng, my name is Xu Qin.”
Are you happy with Song Yan? Happy. Otherwise, she won’t remember so many things so easily.
She has a small meal. When living in the Meng family, she had a great fear that she would be driven away if she ate too much. Anything to enjoy pleasure has a banned meaning. Although he often eats out with Meng Yanchen, he is also a self-denying person, and she is under the fence and she learns to observe and observe in her bones.
Unlike Song Yan.
Once Song Yan accompanied her to eat in the school cafeteria, and saw that she ate too little, frowning, and was unhappy: “Are you a cat or something? The mouse consumes more than you.”
Song Yan thought that the food in the cafeteria was not to her taste, so she took her to eat stir-fried dishes at a local restaurant.
Xu Qin has been to the North for so many years and has not eaten authentic local dishes. She is not used to eating, how can there be something sticky and thick like a snot in the scrambled eggs of tomatoes.
Song Yan said: “This is called thickening.”
Xu Qin frowned: “It’s delicious.”
Song Yan listened to this statement for the first time and laughed at her: “It’s so yummy? Is it‘ good ’or‘ bad? ”
Xu Qin asked: “What do you say here?”
Song Yan: “The **** is bad.”
Xu Qin murmured silently.
Song Yan: “Extraordinary.”
Xu Qin then said in a weird accent: “Teer ~~ It’s unpalatable.” The pronunciation of “eat” almost rolled into the throat.
Song Yan laughed: “Come on again-these mothers are bad.”
Xu Qin said nothing again.
“what happened?”
“Don’t swear.”
Song Yan: “Why can’t Laozi speak swearing anymore?-Follow the lessons. Quickly,” he shoved her, “What’s wrong, quick!”
Xu Qin was pushed a few times by him, and he didn’t know which rib was wrong, so he opened his mouth and said: “It’s awful. This cook is stupid.”
“…” Song Yan gaped. “Why are you still free to play?” While covering her mouth, she said, “Girls can say fucking, they can’t say stupid, this word is not civilized or civilized.”
Xu Qin covered half of his face with him. After talking, he thought it was fun. He smiled silently with his lips curled.
After finishing the trouble, she continued to eat a spoonful, Song Yan frowned: “What are you doing? Don’t eat this tomato if it doesn’t taste good. Spit up.”
Xu Qin stared at him with a mouthful of tomatoes. At home, in front of Meng Yanchen, in front of anyone, she dare not make such a move.
Song Yan kicked the trash can to her feet: “Spit it out.”
Xu Qin hesitated for a moment, after all he spit all that big bite of tomatoes into the trash can.
“Pooh!”
He really likes her. She all knows.
He was not a good-tempered person, but he never said a heavy word to her; he was not a patient person either, because he wanted to see her and sat in the classroom all day long; he was not even a The quiet person, just because she refused to talk from time to time, he would be silent with her for an hour, two hours …
He is so proud and overbearing, but he can forgive her and Meng Yanchen.
It was Friday and should have gone home after school. She didn’t return. He took her to play roller skating, she would not slip, stumbling, he took her hand patiently and guided slowly.
His friends swiped quickly from time to time, laughing, whistling, making fun, and being swept away by him.
Xu Qin slipped a few times and said, “You let go, I will slip.”
Song Yan: “Are you sure?”
Xu Qin: “I’m sure.”
Song Yan let go of her hand, but her arm was around her, and followed her closely.
Xu Qin slipped on her own, the faster and faster she would not turn, she was not proficient in emergency braking techniques, she slid to the end and lost her center of gravity, and suddenly fell to the ground. She thought she would fall hard, but Song Yan quickly stepped forward to hug her.
He guarded her in his arms and hit himself on the ground. She was unscathed in her arms and did not even have a pain.
Song Yan grinned in pain. Xu Qin looked at him stupefied, as if he didn’t respond.
Song Yan clutched her chest: “What are you doing silly? Hurry and knead.”
Xu Qin looked at him in a daze for a while, and suddenly smiled every half a second.
That was the first time Song Yan laughed at her. She knelt beside him, giggled, and her thin shoulders shook.
But soon, the smile on her face dissipated, and she looked dead behind her as he looked behind him.
Song Yan looked back and saw Meng Yanchen. He had seen this man, Xu Qin came to school every Monday, and he followed him in the car.
Meng Yanchen stood beside the venue, and there was no Song Yan or the whole world in his eyes. He only looked at Xu Qin and said, “Qin Qin, go home.”
Xu Qin lowered his head, and after a moment of silence, he began to take off his roller skates.
Song Yan didn’t stop, until Xu Qin got up and left, Song Yan stood up and asked, “Who is he?”
Xu Qin whispered: “My brother.”
Song Yan smiled: “Are you a fool?”
Xu Qin did not explain, headed down to Meng Yanchen.
Seeing that she was going to the side of the field, Song Yan, who was still still, suddenly slipped quickly and grabbed Xu Qin’s hand: “It is forbidden to follow him.”
Xu Qin looked back at him.
And his action to catch Xu Qin stimulated Meng Yanchen.
The latter warned: “You let her go.”
Song Yan picked up her chin and pulled Xu Qin into her arms: “Laozi’s girlfriend, it’s your turn to control it?”
Meng Yanchen stepped forward to punch Song Yan’s face. Song Yan’s shoes were slippery, and when he fell to the ground, he tightened Meng Yanchen’s collar and dragged him to the ground. As soon as he fell to the ground, he quickly turned around and took a punch.
The two rolled into a ball, beaten hard, their faces painted, and their shoes kicked off.
Xu Qin stood aside expressionlessly, as if she didn’t know both sides of the fight.
Friends came around and finally pulled the two away. Meng Yanchen saw that Song Yan was going to catch Xu Qin. He turned around and asked Xu Qin: “Who are you going with?”
Song Yan stopped and looked at Xu Qin, gasping for breath.
Xu Qin, who had been in a daze, finally focused and looked at Song Yan.
Friends are around, Song Yan said one by one: “It is not allowed to go with him.-I will send you back.”
Xu Qin walked to Song Yan and whispered: “Song Yan, I’m going home. Will you come to see you tomorrow?”
Song Yan looked down at her coldly.
Xu Qin did not explain too much, turned and left. In front of all his friends.
The friends were in the same place, daring not to speak. Song Yan didn’t say a word, picked up the roller skates and walked, only two steps out, suddenly shouted and smashed the shoes on the ground.
On the next Saturday, Xu Qin came to the skating rink to find Song Yan.
Song Yan ignored her and she sat on the steps and waited.
Song Yanfeng slid over the roller skates and slid over, just ignored her. For an hour and two hours, Xu Qin sat motionless on the steps and waited.
His friend kindly persuaded her: “Let’s go, you lost face to Brother Yan too yesterday, he will not reconcile with you. Go back.”
Xu Qin sat on the sidelines and waited, his eyes chasing Song Yan back and forth.
It was dark, and Song Yan had no intention of leaving. Tired of playing, he slid to the bench beside the court and unscrewed the bottle to pour water into his mouth.
Xu Qin walked over and said, “Song Yan, I’m hungry, go eat.”
Song Yan gave her a cold look.
Xu Qin squatted at his feet, like a kitten, with dark eyes looking at him cleanly: “Don’t be angry, am I not here to find you?”
Song Yan gritted his teeth, scolded his voice, smashed the water bottle, took off his shoes and stood up.
Xu Qin immediately followed and ran forward to pull his hand. He was irritated and opened it with impunity. She followed again, tightening the corner of his t-shirt. This time he didn’t open her, only the long legs were flying fast, and she sprinted beside him.
When he was eating, he didn’t say a word from beginning to end, Xu Qin also raised a hint of vigilance, she felt what he wanted to ask, and wanted to ask her relationship with Meng Yanchen.
But after eating a meal, he put on the chopsticks and watched her continue to eat slowly, without asking anything. Until the end, he suddenly reached out and rubbed her head, and only asked gently:
“Little guy, miss me?”
The last thing I want to ask is the only one I want to ask in the end. All I have to do is toss and turn all night and want to know the answer. Only this sentence,
Little guy, miss me?
I think you are going crazy.
At that moment, her iron-hearted heart tore a tear, hurting.
He said: I thought you would not come back.
Just because she came back, she forgave her so easily.
But when she broke up, she said:
“I don’t like the ruined Wufang Street, and I think you will be a lifeless person.”
She thought he would never forgive.
But after many years, his answer was: “Your original choice was not important.”
Xu Qin raised his hand to cover his eyes. If he went to him without knowing it, he would be too deceiving.
