There was no sound there, and it seemed to be silent for a long time.
Xu Sui has always been introverted, and it is rare to express her love. It was a bit embarrassing not to get a response. When she was about to divert other topics, Zhou Jingze suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"Me too, more than you think about me."
There was a "snap" from the other end of the phone, making the sound of the gear of the lighter rubbing the flint. He took a puff of cigarette, chuckled and said, "When I have a reaction at night, I can only rely on your photo to put out the fire, understand?"
Zhou Jingze's tone of voice was playful, revealing an evil spirit, and his own low-pitched voice penetrated into her ears through the unsteady electric current.
Itching and numbness, Xu Sui only felt his ears burn.
"Rogue." Xu Sui cursed dryly with a blushing face.
Zhou Jingze chuckled, took down the cigarette, and coaxed her: "Go to my house and help water those plants, my dear, I'll be back after you finish watering."
"good."
It happened to be the weekend, Xu Sui brought 1017 and Master Kui back to Zhou Jingze's house in Amber Lane. She opened the door of the courtyard and looked over.
Almost all the plants in the yard were dead, their leaves turned yellow, and they stretched out their whole bodies and lay limp on the ground.
Zhou Jingze clearly lied to her to come here, and even an agronomy expert could not save this plant.
After Xu Sui went in and drank a couple of sips of water, he took Master Kui to the flower market and bought several pots of plants and came back. There are cacti, eucalyptus leaves, banyan leaves, and sansevieria.
These plants were placed together in the yard by her, and then poured with cool water, all of a sudden, the color of the whole house was much brighter and lighter.
Xu Sui walked into the house, took out a carton of milk from the refrigerator, the white straw pierced the aluminum foil film, and leaned back on the sofa to drink milk. However, after a short rest, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a pile of crumbling beer cans on the table , men's clothes were strewn about on the sofa, and airline magazines were thrown aside.
She couldn't sit still anymore.
Xu Sui put down the milk, got up and found a white plastic bag, threw the beer can into it, wiped the tea table clean, cleaned up other messy places in the house, and finally threw the garbage out.
The entire home looks brand new.
After everything was packed, Xu Sui threw his clothes into the washing machine again, threw a blue laundry beads into it, pressed the button, and after the washing drum slowly started to rotate, she went to do other things.
Today is the hottest day since the beginning of spring, plus she cleaned up all afternoon, Xu Sui was so hot that he was sweating all over. She walked into Zhou Jingze's room, found his T-shirt and sweatpants, and immediately went into the bathroom to take a shower.
When getting dressed after taking a bath, Xu Sui found that Zhou Jingze's black sweatpants were too big, and the two ropes at the bottom of the pants couldn't be tied, so they fell off. She simply gave up, and finally put on his T-shirt, stepped on Came out with a pair of slippers on.
She casually wiped her wet hair with a white towel. Her hair was half dry and draped over her shoulders. Water was dripping slightly from her hair, and her chest was covered with water.
Xu Sui shook the water in his ears, pulled on his slippers, walked to the washing machine, and put the washed clothes into the clothes basket. She carried the clothes basket and went up to the second floor to dry the clothes.
It was dusk now, the sky was a thick honey-like color, the hot wind was blowing, and the weather was so stuffy that people mistakenly thought that summer was coming.
Xu Sui was about to dry his clothes when he found several pieces of Zhou Jingze's clothes stuck on the top of the guardrail, which were blowing in the wind. Xu Sui stood on tiptoe and reached for the clothes with great difficulty, but found that he couldn't reach them.
She brought a small bench from the room, stepped on it with bare feet, and reached for the clothes stuck on the guardrail, but every time her hands reached the hem of the clothes, the evening wind blew, rubbed her fingertips and swayed away went.
Xu Sui had no choice but to stand on tiptoe to reach for his clothes.
With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Zhou Jingze leaned against the wall and stared at it for an unknown amount of time.
Xu Sui turned his back to him, completely unaware, and was still struggling with the few pieces of clothes that were blowing in the wind. She was wearing Zhou Jingze's white T-shirt, which could barely cover her white and tender thighs, revealing two smooth and slender long legs, with a few drops of water on her round calves.
The upturned buttocks were looming under the wide T-shirt, and every time she stretched out her hand to reach for the clothes, she could see the pair of white jade-like roundness through the loose sleeves.
Her hair was wet, and a pile of water dripped onto the floor.
She was still that innocent girl, but her every move was full of seductive charm.
Zhou Jingze squinted his eyes at her, exhaled wisps of gray mist from the cigarette he was biting in his mouth, his Adam's apple rolled slowly, and a hot current surged in his lower abdomen.
Xu Sui's skill is that he doesn't have to do anything, just standing there can make him react.
Zhou Jingze extinguished the cigarette in his hand, casually threw it into the flower pot under his feet, put his hands in his pockets, stepped on his military boots, and walked towards Xu Sui step by step.
Standing on tiptoe, Xu Sui struggled to reach for his clothes for the first few times, but when the wind blew, he failed to hold on, and was finally discouraged. Suddenly, a shadow enveloped her, and a pair of hands with uniform strength and obvious blue veins wrapped around her legs, lifting her up into the air.
Xu Sui let out an exclamation in fright, and the other party let out an unintelligible humming laugh. When he looked down, he realized that a man who should have been thousands of miles away was appearing in front of him at this moment.
"Why are you back?" Xu Sui was pleasantly surprised.
Zhou Jingze was still wearing the blue uniform of the Air Rescue Team, with four stripes on his left shoulder, a small golden plane on his right shoulder, and a circle of bright red five-star red flags around it, overalls, and military boots, with broad shoulders and long legs. , handsome and unrestrained with a sense of innocence.
"When did I ever lie to you? I won't come back after watering the plants." Zhou Jingze laughed.
"Which dress do you want?" Zhou Jingze asked her.
Xu Sui hugged his neck and sat on the side of the man's shoulders. Zhou Jingze supported her and willingly listened to the little girl's instructions, going left and right for a while, and she finally received the clothes.
Zhou Jingze dragged her buttocks with one hand, rubbed her white and tender legs with rough fingers, and his throat tightened for a while: "Wear my clothes and seduce me?"
Xu Sui shuddered after being touched by him, and she sat up high again, fearful of falling, the tip of her heart was almost roasted on the fire, she said in a hoarse voice:
"No... no, I didn't know you were coming back."
The man arched his left cheek with the tip of his tongue and smiled, and said in a deep voice, "But I have been seduced."
When Zhou Jingze came back, Xu Sui was very happy and surprisingly clingy. Wherever he went, she followed him like a little tail.
In the evening, Xu Sui said he didn't want to eat, but wanted a cake. Zhou Jingze didn't even change his clothes. He took out the ingredients from the refrigerator, went into the kitchen, and resigned himself to baking a small cake for his girl.
There's no way, my daughter-in-law, whoever he doesn't favor.
Zhou Jingze beat the eggs and kneaded the flour in the kitchen, and when it was ready to take the utensils after it was molded, Xu Sui came in at some point, hugged him from behind, and rubbed his cheek against his waist.
"Hiss..." Zhou Jingze laughed loosely, his tone was dangerous and pointed, and his voice was lowered, "If you tease me again, I will kill you on the spot."
"Do you want to touch her to see if there is any reaction, huh?" Zhou Jingze made a gesture to grab her hand and wanted to take it over, but Xu Sui hugged his waist tightly, refusing to let go.
"Why are you so clingy all of a sudden?" Zhou Jingze played tricks, tilting his head and rubbing the cream on her cheeks and nose.
Xu Sui was not angry, and said in a muffled voice, "I want to say sorry to you."
"I know everything you've been doing for me, maps, bear caps, noodle shops..." Xu Sui hugged him and sniffed, "Because of my mother some time ago, I wasn't firm enough in this relationship, I'm sorry .”
Zhou Jingze stopped the movement in his hand, turned around, looked at her,
Xu Sui also raised his eyes to look at him, Zhou Jingze's hair was much shorter, his facial features were sharp, and he was looking at her with his eyelids lifted, his thin eyelids were like two sharp knives.
When they looked at each other, they fell into the vortex under his control.
Xu Suixian said: "I will follow you and support you, and I will not be shaken by such feelings in the future. I will only recognize you for the rest of my life."
It's like a pick to remove the ripples from the calm and unmarked lake.
Zhou Jingze lowered his neck, held her forehead, and said in a serious tone, "Xu Sui, follow me, I won't let you regret it."
Will hold the best in front of you, no longer make you sad.
"Okay." Xu Sui nodded.
Zhou Jingze was afraid that she would cry again, so he changed the topic, hooked the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears with his fingers, and smiled: "Are you apologizing just now? Then make it up to me."
Xu Sui looked at him with ignorant eyes: "How to make up for it?"
After she finished speaking, Zhou Jingze put his arms around her waist and pulled her to him. He lowered his head and licked the cream on Xu Sui's nose and cheeks into his mouth.
Zhou Jingze looked at her, licked it slowly, lowered his head, fed it into her mouth, and pushed it between his lips and teeth bit by bit. Xu Sui passively tasted a little cream, which was quite sweet. Then, his lips hurt, and the man bit into it directly.
Xu Sui was forced to swallow the cream he brought in, his throat was hoarse due to the sweetness. She was wearing a white T-shirt, baggy and baggy, just convenient for him.
Xu Sui only felt that the front was cold for a while, his knuckles were rough, his ring was tingly, it was cold and hot at the same time. She lowered her head and buried herself passively between the man's neck, her throat was so dry that she couldn't speak a word.
The cream was baked until it melted, and soon, it turned into a puddle of water.
Zhou Jingze moved very hard, pressing the tattoo on her ribs to the critical point, her eyes were a little red, and the sweat on her forehead dripped on the kitchen floor.
"all."
"Um?"
Zhou Jingze looked at her with a hoarse voice: "I want to marry you."
…
Zhou Jingze was on vacation during this time, and Xu Sui stayed with him all day long, and they were almost inseparable except for going to work. She thought that everyone was developing in a good direction.
Unexpectedly, a thunderbolt struck from the blue. Life is like this, good times and bad times, sunny and rainy days, you never know which waves are going to hit you.
At 3 o'clock in the morning on Sunday, Zhou Jingze received a call from the hospital and was told that Hu Qianxi had a heart attack and had to be rescued twice. During the second rescue, Sheng Nanzhou saw her in extreme pain. She was as thin as a piece of paper, her heart and lungs bulged like a ball, and her breathing was close to exhaustion.
Every time she trembled, she felt weak like a soft yellow peach. Her body was extremely weak and painful, but her consciousness was very clear.
The more awake the more painful.
She was crying silently.
Like a fragile doll.
The doctor went out and told Sheng Nanzhou about Hu Qianxi's situation. Sheng Nanzhou lowered his eyes, clenched his fists unconsciously, and finally nodded.
He chose to give up the rescue.
Sheng Nanzhou calmly informed Hu Qianxi that every relative and friend came to say goodbye to her.
Sheng Nanzhou was the last one to go in. He kept holding her hand with a smile on his face. He didn't want his wife to worry about him in the end.
In the end, Hu Qianxi passed away at 4:45 in the morning.
When the doctor announced the time of Hu Qianxi's death, Xu Sui fainted. And Sheng Nanzhou was always sitting in front of the white hospital bed, holding her hand, without moving for a long time, silent like a statue, blending into the dark and pale background of the hospital.
Like a cutting body.
In a corner where no one saw, a hot tear dripped on the sheet, swam away quickly, and then disappeared.
Hu Qianxi's funeral was handled by Sheng Nanzhou. On the day of condolences, Xu followed Zhou Jingze and the others to stand in the main seat, as Hu Qianxi's family, to welcome and entertain every guest.
Lu Wenbai also came, he brought a bouquet of winter jasmine flowers, there was a faint shadow under his eyelashes, his face was still sickly white, he stepped forward, patted Sheng Nanzhou on the shoulder, and said in a low voice:
"Congratulations."
When paying homage to the tomb, Xu Sui stood in the middle of hundreds of people in black clothes, holding a manuscript she wrote in her hand. The reading process was not very smooth, and she choked up several times. She said:
"Hu Qianxi, born on July 13, 1993, 28 years old. Hu Qianxi is also my good friend. She is beautiful, with big eyes and fair skin. When I first saw her, I thought she came out of comics. Vitality girl. Like most ordinary girls, she likes to chase stars, and is troubled by not being able to lose #weight and having a pimple on her face. She likes to eat sushi, hates all irritating things, and her favorite color is pink .”
"She is our friend, the little princess in the eyes of parents, an ordinary wife, and a wild animal doctor who rescued 1,300 small animals around the world. She watched 3,000 sunsets alone, Still... living well. Occasionally crying, sometimes squeamish, but she is kind and lively, smart and strong, brave and passionate, like a sunflower."
"Please don't forget her."
After finishing speaking, the audience was unbelievably quiet, only a slight weeping sound, and then the crying became louder and louder, and everyone seemed to be enveloped by a huge black.
After seeing off the guests, Xu stood in front of the tomb with their group, and she stood there for a long time. Xu Sui stared blankly at the smiling Hu Qianxi in the photo in front of the tombstone.
Since the last time it warmed up, the whole city has fallen into the rainy season and is shrouded in a layer of white moisture all day long, but today, Xu Sui looked up at the sky.
It was surprisingly sunny.
It's a fine day.
Sissy, are you watching us? I will never forget you. In the next life, we will still be good friends and cover you with a quilt.
After everyone left, Sheng Nanzhou sat by the tombstone alone. The sun was sinking gradually, and Huoshaoyun spread under the sky in a blood-colored romance, magnificent and spectacular.
Sheng Nanzhou sat there, thinking about something. When we said goodbye that night, he held Hu Qianxi's hand. She lay there, forced a wry smile, and said:
"Brother Nanzhou, I have a secret that I haven't told you. In fact, I have secretly liked you for a long time. But once in high school, I overheard you telling a friend that you were only my sister. So I kept this love in my heart. .The time I chased Lu Wenbai in college, I was really stupid. I couldn’t even say I liked it. I was just tempted by 美色#, and I was also inexplicably persistent. How does it feel to love someone?"
Lu Wenbai counted as a character experience that she chose to pass through the game of life.
Later, she and Lu Wenbai made it clear, and the two became friends.
As Hu Qianxi spoke, a tear fell from the corner of her eye, and she raised her hand to caress Sheng Nanzhou's temples with great effort, her voice was weak and powerless, and she squeezed out each word from her throat:
"Brother Nanzhou, I'm leaving, don't feel sorry for me. You must live well, show me the beautiful things in the world, rainbows, sunny days, sunsets, I haven't seen enough, there are so many delicious things I didn't have time to eat it, so... you have to do it for me, and you are not allowed to do stupid things."
"If there is a chance in the next life, I will meet you first and come after you."
Sheng Nanzhou sat beside the tombstone, his expression that had been pretending to be strong and calm for several days finally broke, and he leaned there with a sad expression. He raised his hand and caressed the words on the tombstone:
The tomb of his beloved wife Hu Xixi.
On this day, love is lost forever.
At the same time, he put a sunflower in front of the tomb, and rolled out a sentence from his throat, with a serious tone:
"Xixi, live in the sun forever."
On this day, the sky is clear, the sky is endless, the evening is beautiful, the flowers are fragrant, the birds are chirping, and the wind is gentle.
