Waiting for You in a City - Chapter 38

As the subway was moving fast, Xu Qin grabbed his mobile phone with both hands and stood still.

Song Yan did not move.

The people around didn’t care, maybe they thought they were a couple. Xu Qin thought.

She glanced at the black car window, and the shadows of her and Song Yan were reflected on the glass. The two of them stood together, thinking about it, and hit Song Yan’s eyes on the glass window.

She burst out of her mind, slowly looking away from her eyes, thinking about it, and slowly taking a step away, coming out of his envelope, holding the vertical bar, and standing face to face with him.

His eyes fell naturally on his neck, not looking up.

Standing upright is speechless,

Song Yan broke the silence and asked, “What did you say at the commendation meeting?”

Xu Qin said: “I seem to have smashed the field.”

Song Yan raised her eyebrows slightly: “How to say?”

Xu Qin described the situation once, and said that she mentioned him in her speech.

After listening to it, Song Yan smiled uncomfortably, without comment, and looked up at the station list above the subway door.

Xu Qin said: “That baby, I haven’t had time to talk, I want to thank you.”

Song Yan listened leisurely, apparently not attentively, and said smoothly: “How can I thank you? Please invite me to dinner again.”

“Okay.” Xu Qin replied, and he realized that he was making fun of himself, but he looked up at him and looked elsewhere, seemingly careless. But this reminded her that before every time she “please have a meal”, she was upset, so she changed her mouth and said, “Change something else, thank you in another way.”

Song Yan was concerned this time, and her eyes moved back to her face. She was very serious and asked, “How can I thank you?”

Xu Qin said at the beginning, he didn’t think about it at all, and he couldn’t answer it when he was asked suddenly: “I think about it, and I’ll tell you after I think it over.”

He looked away again, his lips smiling lightly. The smile obviously didn’t count on her gratitude, and saw her penetratingly.

Xu Qin: “…”

She was also ashamed and thought about it for tens of seconds, but to no avail, she simply started a new topic: “How is your injury?”

“Recovery is quite fast.” Song Yan said, someone was about to get out of the car and moved to the door. He supported Xu Qin’s shoulder and dialed her in.

Xu Qin moved in with his hand and asked, “Can I rest for a long time?”

He looked at her again: “No.”

“What time do you go to work?”

“next week.”

Xu Qin frowned slightly: “You have to raise two months if you say less.”

Song Yan’s mouth twitched: “In my case, going to work is also playing the role of instructor, managing the team members, teasing the dog, not training, attending and not entering the field.”

Xu Qin nodded: “That’s okay.” After talking about it, I found that there was no topic, and started another one, “Are you going to rest at home for a few days?”

“No. Receive psychological counseling with the team.”

During the earthquake, Xu Qin and her were in the rear, and they saw more life and death than usual. But Song Yan is different, facing a large number of corpses on the front line, the psychology is more or less unbearable.

Xu Qin: “Are you all right?”

Song Yan: “I look like a bad look?”

Xu Qin looked at him seriously for a moment and shook his head.

“There are young children in the team who will cry and have nightmares when they come back. I’m fine, I have seen even worse when I was a soldier.”

As soon as Song Yan spoke out, she realized that the talk was fast.

Xu Qin asked: “Aren’t you armed police?”

Song Yan stared at her silently for two seconds, and said, “It’s here.”

“Oh.” Xu Qin consciously moved to the door, and he stood behind her, hands in his hands. The person was behind her, but the shadow was reflected on the glass door in front of her.

When the door opened, it was gone.

…

At the end of December, Christmas is coming and there is a festive atmosphere on the street.

Even more appropriate is that when leaving the subway station, the sky began to snow, a small flower, a little climate.

“It seems like the first snow.” Xu Qin said.

Song Yan looked up at the sky, and it was still sunny in the morning. At this time, it was all white clouds: “After waiting for the movie to come out, it should be big.”

“In our high school year, it also snowed at Christmas.” Xu Qin said.

It snowed heavily that year, and they ran on the street late at night. Xu Qin played with his heart, grabbed a small layer of snow on the treetops and rubbed it into a ball, and stuffed it into Song Yan’s back. He was so excited that she was giggling, and she went to catch the snow again, and put a small hand in his clothes.

Song Yan warned: “Don’t make a fuss anymore, noisily pick your clothes!”

Xu Qin was still jumping, his hands reaching behind his neck.

He grabbed her all at once, opened the zipper of her down jacket, opened the dress around her waist, and got his hand in.

She was screaming and jumping with excitement from his cold hands, but she couldn’t break free. He stretched out his hands and rubbed up and down:

“Do you still make trouble? Do you make trouble?”

At the moment, Xu Qin’s voice fell, and both of them said nothing, and they remembered old things. Looking around for signs, I can no longer look at it.

A few days before Christmas, but the atmosphere is already strong.

When you enter the mall, you will see a huge Christmas tree under the patio, red, gold, silver and ball lights, and colorful gift boxes under the tree. Many people took pictures under the tree.

Song Yan and Xu Qin passed by, and a couple handed over their mobile phones: “Sorry, can you take a picture of us?”

Xu Qin took the phone.

The couple ran under the Christmas tree and hugged each other with a sweet smile.

Xu Qin took photos, and the phone returned them: “Take two photos.”

“Thank you.” The girl asked, “Shall I take a picture for you too?”

Xu Qin was stunned, and had time to speak. Song Yan’s mobile phone had been handed over: “Thank you.”

When taking a picture, he moved closer to her, but did not pull her hand or hug her shoulder. After taking back the phone, he looked down at the photo for a while, and when Xu Qin wanted to see it, he turned off the screen and squeezed it back in his pocket.

Xu Qin followed him: “Send me the picture.”

“Okay.” He said, but didn’t move.

“Send it to me.” There was an escalator in front of her, and she walked to him.

He said: “Go back and send again …. Pay attention to the escalator.”

“Oh.” She shifted her attention, walked up the escalator, and looked back at him habitually. The steps rose slowly, and her eyes rose slowly, even with him.

Very subtle feeling, like the slow motion first seen in the movie.

The light in the mall was so bright and bright that it shone on his face.

She saw his eyes up close, very dark, bright, and quiet, not like him in memory.

Song Yan in the memory is arrogant and arrogant.

Song Yan also looked directly at her, and the people in front of her were very different from the girls many years ago. As a young girl, Xu Qin looked at the thin and silent, but she was stubborn and had the guts to break through.

He wondered if the ten years of missing each other could be bridged.

Face to face, perhaps in a flash, there is a familiar but unexpected strangeness of stagnation.

After three seconds of staring at each other, Xu Qin’s heartbeat was unsteady and he couldn’t persevere anymore.

Song Yan looked at her profile and wondered how she felt at the moment, but that was all.

He has made up his mind.

…

Although today is a working day, there are still a lot of people in the cinema, couples and friends. The air was filled with sweet popcorn.

I took the movie ticket and passed the place selling popcorn,

Song Yan bowed his head and asked Xu Qin: “Want to eat popcorn?”

Xu Qin nodded. She didn’t particularly want to eat. She just thought that watching movies seemed to be accompanied by popcorn.

Song Yan paid the waiter and asked, “What do you drink?”

Xu Qin: “Water.”

Song Yan to the waiter: “Two bottles of water.”

When the waiter loaded popcorn, Song Yan glanced at other snacks and asked, “Is there anything else you want to eat?”

Xu Qin shook her head. She didn’t like snacking much in recent years.

Song Yan saw a bar of chocolate and picked it up and asked her, “What about this?”

Xu Qin: “I don’t like chocolate anymore.”

Song Yan put the chocolate back.

When Xu Qin walked to the screening hall with a popcorn bucket, she suddenly realized that chocolate was her favorite when she was in high school.

This late cognition made Xu Qin feel a little worried, but looking at Song Yan, he didn’t seem to take it seriously.

After the ticket check-in entered the room, she sat down. Song Yan first unscrewed a bottle of water and then put it on her hand, then unscrewed another bottle of water and took a few sips.

The movie is about to start, Xu Qin handed him the popcorn bucket and asked, “Did you eat?”

“Don’t eat.” He said, without looking at her, looking at the direction of the exit.

Somehow, he frowned, and whispered after a while: “You see, I have something to do.” After that, the person got up and left.

Xu Qin watched Song Yan leave, he walked to the safety exit and pushed the door, but it could not be pushed open. Then, he disappeared at the entrance staircase into the cinema.

Xu Qin probably guessed it.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for Song Yan to enter the theater again, and a staff member followed behind, took the key and opened the chain tied to the door, and bowed to Song Yan with regret.

Song Yan came back and sat next to Xu Qin, mocking himself: “Occupational disease.”

Xu Qin: “The safe passage is blocked?”

“Huh.” Song Yan leaned slightly towards her and asked in a low voice, “What did the movie say at the beginning?”

Xu Qin: “…” I don’t know.

She looked at him and suddenly found that their faces were very close, and his eyes were particularly bright in the darkness.

He looked at her seriously, waiting for her to answer.

And her long silence made the atmosphere unspeakable. He looked at her for a few seconds, perhaps realizing that this kind of staring was gradually dangerous. He moved his eyes decisively to the screen, and the man sat back.

Xu Qin also sat down slowly, and the taste in his heart was unpredictable.

…

Song Yan and Xu Qin didn’t look at each other again, looking at the screen. Fortunately, the movie was wonderful enough that the two of them watched it without any communication.

Outside the screening room, Song Yan saw the girls walking towards the bathroom and asked Xu Qin: “Are you going?”

“Ok.”

The room was heated enough, she just took off her coat and took it in her hands. It is inconvenient to bring in at this moment, so I asked, “Where are you? Go?”

“I’ll hold it for you.” Song Yan said, taking over the coat in her hand.

Xu Qin gave him clothes and bags and went to the bathroom.

Song Yan leaned against the wall and took out a cigarette. She accidentally glanced at her back. She didn’t find her wearing a long coat just now. Only then did she see that she was wearing a skirt underneath.

There was unburnt smoke in his mouth, and he smiled suddenly.

When we left the mall, it was already dark.

And Xueguo has grown, and when you look up, you can see that a large area of ​​snowflakes is reflected in the black sky, and it is scattered like a goose feather catkin.

Many passersby ran in the snow, laughing and laughing.

It’s always happy to snow.

“Just two stops, go back.” Xu Qin said.

“it is good.”

The two put their hands in their hands and walked into the snow.

There is no wind, only snowflakes.

“Is the movie beautiful?” Song Yan asked, lighting the cigarette.

“Good-looking.” Xu Qin nodded.

“Then I have to thank the director.” Song Yan smiled lightly and exhaled a cigarette.

“Why?” Xu Qin looked up and saw snowflakes falling on his dark hair. There was an indescribable beauty.

“I think about it later, it’s a good memory.” Song Yan said, “but not, I watched a big bad movie with Song Yan that day.”

Xu Qin pursed her lips and asked casually, “Did you choose it specifically?”

“Well,” he said.

She was slightly startled, and looked up again, seeing the snowflakes lingering in the smoke he exhaled, inexplicably, a warmth in her heart. It seemed as if I didn’t feel cold when walking in the snowy night, and the cold air sucked into my body was very clear.

“It looks good.” Xu Qin said again.

The passerby ran happily, and the two walked slowly, looking down at the road. Pieces of snowflakes landed and instantly melted on the wet ground without traces.

Perhaps, it would be nice if we could go on like this forever. There is nothing else in this world, only snow.

But the road between the two stations turned out to be so close, and I arrived in a moment.

He took her to the door of the community, under the banyan tree.

The street lamp illuminates the dry tree and projects on the ground, drawing irregular lines.

Xu Qin stopped under the street lamp and looked at him across the snow: “Here he is.”

“Huh.” Song Yan stood still, and her eyes quickly swept around her, as if checking her and coming in good condition, saying, “Go in.”

Xu Qin’s soles rubbed slightly on the ground, and no one moved: “You go first, I’m already home.”

“Huh.” Song Yan nodded, “Go away.”

She looked at him and turned around, suddenly reluctant, suddenly wanted to call him, the name has not yet been exported. He was slightly stunned, and the man stepped back and back again.

His tall figure blocked the light of the street lamp and covered her in the shadow below him.

She gasped slightly and looked at him,

He thinned his lips softly and looked at her.

Suddenly, he leaned over, slowly, slowly approaching her lips.

Xu Qin’s heart suddenly mentioned his throat, almost stopped, and the whole person couldn’t move.

But he stopped close to her, and her black eyes stared at her at close range.

She smelled the good smell on his face, and the cold smell of snowflakes, which confused her thoughts.

Saying no to expecting is false.

She was tight all over, thinking about what he would do next second, but he straightened up and said, “Go in.”
