Chapter 52: A secret that cannot be told

Views:

Du Mengmeng proposed to spend the night at Wen Jialuo's place. She thought Wen Jialuo would find a reason to reject her, but she didn't expect that he would agree so readily. For a moment, she felt a sense of weightlessness as if she had fallen into a trap - wasn't it her own guess

When Xu Shiqi heard this, she froze and felt uneasy. Could it be that her relationship with Wen Jialuo would be exposed on the first day they lived together

Among the three people, Wen Jialuo seemed to be the only one who was open-minded and didn't think about anything, so he was very focused when driving.

Xu Shiqi was already sitting in the passenger seat out of habit, so Du Mengmeng was the only one sitting in the back seat. I remembered that the first time I saw Xu Shiqi was also in the car. That woman followed her mother, looking docile and filial, and her voice was like something that could be put into a painting. She was simply a model of a traditional Chinese woman.

Yes, at the beginning, Brother Yu only introduced her as Sister Baohua's classmate, but how come she was sitting in the same car with Jialuo when the accident happened? Now it seems that it is definitely not as simple as Jialuo said that she went to relax.

Du Mengmeng looked back and forth at the two heads, and began to feel conflicted.

After returning to the residence, Wen Jialuo pointed to the room her mother had prepared for Xu Shiqi and said, "You sleep there. The sheets and quilts are all new, and the air conditioner is also newly installed. It's a bargain for you."

Du Mengmeng glanced at Xu Shiqi and said to her, "We haven't had a good conversation since the New Year. Can't I sleep with you tonight?"

Xu Shiqi smiled slightly and generously pointed out Wen Jialuo's room to her.

Wen Jialuo was naturally unwilling, and she held on to Xu Shiqi tightly, raised her chin, and glared at her arrogantly: "Sleep here if you want, I'll book a hotel for you."

It was too obvious. Du Mengmeng's face almost fell: "Okay then. But I don't want to go to bed yet, why not--" She looked at the TV on the wall, "Watch TV."

This time Wen Jialuo didn't say anything, but turned on the TV.

The living room of this house is like a long and narrow corridor, and only one large sofa can be placed horizontally. Luo Linyi had the TV cabinet removed and replaced it with a set of 113 fabric sofas, which were arranged around a round coffee table, as if they were holding an intimate discussion.

However, the single sofa was not a good position for watching TV, so the three of them squeezed into the big sofa.

In accordance with the most important principle of being a guest, Du Mengmeng immediately took the Feng Shui position in the middle. Xu Shiqi did not argue with her and naturally sat on her left.

Wen Jialuo walked over and suddenly pulled Du Mengmeng, then sat down on the right side of Xu Shiqi.

"You..." Du Mengmeng glared at her, but the two of them leaned back on the sofa naturally, relaxed their expressions and really prepared to watch TV.

The remote control was in Wen Jialuo's hand. He played the piano for a while, and finally stopped at a TV series. The background was the Republic of China, with short-haired men in suits, slim women in cheongsams, rickshaws, and a large dance hall.

Du Mengmeng didn't like watching TV. She got bored after a while and leaned on Wen Jialuo with her shoulder: "Hey, do you have any snacks?"

"No, if you want to eat it, go downstairs and buy it yourself." Wen Jialuo said simply.

Xu Shiqi stood up, fiddled in the kitchen for a while, and brought out a few cups of fragrant milk tea. It was inconvenient for her to write, so she simply said nothing and handed the cup to Du Mengmeng, only apologetically pointing to the milk tea box she brought with her. It's just a matter of boiling water, so just drink it reluctantly.

"Sister Xu is so nice." Du Mengmeng called her sweetly, holding the milk tea and taking a deep breath. Her happy expression was just like the woman who was called "You are my so-and-so".

Wen Jialuo rubbed his ears, turned his head and said, "Can you please stop calling me like that? You're making me look old."

"Hey," Du Mengmeng asked curiously, "Isn't Sister Xu a classmate of Sister Baohua? Is it wrong for me to call her that?"

Xu Shiqi shook his hand and patted Wen Jialuo's knee.

"But since he is Sister Baohua's classmate, how did you know each other?" Du Mengmeng continued to ask.

"You're just my childhood friend, how come you are so obsessed with my brother?" Wen Jialuo asked lazily.

When Wen Yu was mentioned, Du Mengmeng became restless and took out his phone to look for someone.

Wen Yu heard that she was sleeping at her cousin's house tonight, so he told them to close the doors and windows at night and the three of them to be careful.

It sounded like he also knew Xu Shiqi was here. But why was his tone so natural? Or was it when he didn't know, something big happened that he didn't know about? After chatting for a few more sentences, Du Mengmeng hung up the phone, and the doubts in her heart only grew bigger and bigger. In front of him, she thought she couldn't find anything after all, so she stretched and stood up: "I'm so tired... I'm going to bed."

Wen Jialuo waved at her, without even looking away, as if the TV series was so attractive.

The TV series ended at a certain point. In a spy film, the male and female protagonists, who were suspicious of each other, fell into extreme pain when they were about to discover each other's secrets. They thought each other was an enemy, but the people in front of the TV understood that there was a reason for each other's concealment, in the name of love.

It's old-fashioned but sensational. There are no important scenes in the preview tomorrow. It's still just foreshadowing and suspense, which always arouses the audience's attention. They watched the TV show seriously. In fact, they didn't care about the plot of the TV show. They just enjoyed the quietness of sitting together and doing the same thing at this moment.

The TV began to play endless commercials. Xu Shiqi's head hit Wen Jialuo's shoulder, her eyes slightly closed. Wen Jialuo stretched out an arm to hug her, his fingertips lingering on her shoulders, and slowly moved to her neck. There was always a different silk scarf carefully wrapped there, and this time was no exception. Of course, she had always noticed it, but she just didn't deliberately stare at it.

But it should be okay now, at least it won’t be covered forever.

Xu Shiqi understood what she meant, seemed to sigh, sat up, and finally untied the scarf.

What kind of scar was hidden under the scarf? When the scarf was taken away, Wen Jialuo was so nervous that her mind went blank. When her fair skin was beautifully revealed, Wen Jialuo's mind was still blank, and she didn't even know why she couldn't think of anything.

She moved closer and found that there were indeed marks on her neck, two cuts, but they were small and not hideous enough.

While Wen Jialuo was eager to use a magnifying glass to carefully observe her neck, Xu Shiqi took out a sticky note from his pocket and started writing.

Your mother sent me the best scar removal medicine, and the sutures used during the operation were also the best. Thank her for me. Xu Shiqi smiled as she finished reading the words, and then slowly asked her with his mouth, "Is it not ugly anymore?"

Wen Jialuo's eyes warmed up, and she leaned over and kissed the two marks. She said nothing, but hugged Xu Shiqi with her hands and feet, and kissed there persistently...

The lights in the room where Du Mengmeng slept had been turned off. The two of them sat on the sofa for a while, then tiptoed back and forth in the living room, taking turns to take a shower.

This was their first night living together - although when they arrived they had never thought that there would be someone sleeping next door to them that night.

As April approaches, the temperature gradually rises and there is no need to turn on the air conditioner. Too dry air is not good for Xu Shiqi's throat.

While waiting for the girl, Xu Shiqiu picked up a book and was reading it by the bedside. Wen Jialuo locked the door when she came in, wiped her hair and sat beside her, turning to look at her. At this moment when there was no need to talk, and the scar on her neck could not be seen clearly under the shadow of the light, it was impossible to tell the impact of the car accident on Xu Shiqiu.

Xu Shiqi slowly turned a page of the book. The slight friction sound was her fingertips touching the slightly raised corner of the page. Her eyes followed the page and her head turned sideways. He couldn't directly touch the woman's heart. All he could see in his eyes was her peaceful expression, which was very different from her reluctance to speak. Wen Jialuo looked at her infatuatedly, and his mind was full of doubts.

She put down the towel she was using to wipe her hair, and leaned forward to take Xu Shiqi's book. The book was put aside, and Wen Jialuo placed his hands lightly and naturally on her knees, then kissed her neck first, and then her lips.

Xu Shiqi held her head and glanced at the next room.

"Don't worry about her." Wen Jialuo said vaguely, biting her lips gently.

Wen Jialuo separated Xu Shiqi's hands, propped her elbows on both sides of her head, and slowly inserted her fingers into the woman's hair. The chestnut hairline had a strange gentle feeling under the light. She knew that this woman showed this side of her to give her a surprise, but it was a pity that too many things happened that day, so she forgot this surprise.

Xu Shiqiu's hair was half dry, with a soft moisture. Wen Jialuo's fingertips gently touched the roots of her hair, where new black hair had grown. At this moment, she unexpectedly discovered that Xu Shiqiu's expression gradually became hazy, and he even squinted his eyes slightly. He tilted his head and rubbed her palm as if enjoying it, as if catering to her caress. Could it be that this is also her sensitive area? Wen Jialuo guessed with a little surprise, and her ten fingers gradually rubbed her scalp slowly. She didn't know how to massage, and she didn't have any techniques, so she just circled behind the woman's ears. Sure enough, Xu Shiqiu's shoulders shrugged slightly, and the whole person seemed to tremble a little, and his legs were slightly lifted to touch her.

It was such an obvious message of courtship that Wen Jialuo continued to linger gently in her hair while lowering his head and sucking her lips.

Xu Shiqi lay there, reaching out and pulling at the front of Wen Jialuo's pajamas, groping.

After a while, she pushed the girl away as if she was a little confused, looked at the girl's pajamas carefully, and then lowered her head to look at her own.

Why are the pajamas that girls wear fitted underwear, but the ones that I prepare for myself are the kind that loosen and open as soon as I pull the belt

Wen Jialuo understood what she meant, so he smiled and reached for her belt: "Do you remember, the first time you spent the night on my bed, I pushed you and you sat on the bed. At that time, your pajamas were half open, your face was as red as if you had put on rouge, and you lowered your head with shame and annoyance. I still remember it to this day."

So you already liked me at that time? Xu Shiqi put her arms around Wen Jialuo's neck and smiled. But she also sat up and pushed Wen Jialuo away.

Change clothes. Xu Shiqi continued to smile and pointed at the pajamas on the two people.

Huh? Wen Jialuo hung her head and pouted, unconsciously learning Du Mengmeng's habit of acting like a spoiled child. Seeing that Xu Shiqi still refused to let her go, she took the towel that had just been thrown aside, covered her hair with it and wiped it for her: "If you don't dry it, you'll catch a cold."

Xu Shiqi suddenly forgot his insistence, turned around, and faced sideways to Wen Jialuo so that she could continue to serve him.

The atmosphere was good now, and it was natural for the two of them to just sit there. Wen Jialuo stole a glance at her and saw that she looked relaxed, and couldn't help but think that this was a good opportunity. She threw away the towel again, hugged Xu Shiqi, and just swayed gently, as if she was sitting in a leisurely boat, and her tone was also leisurely: "Shiqi, do you think we are going to live together now?"

Xu Shiqi opened his mouth, and Wen Jialuo leaned forward and stared nervously at the soft lips.

But the mouth quickly closed again and he just nodded.

"... Well, I'm not used to living with two people. If there's anything I'm not doing well, please give me some advice." Wen Jialuo spread out one hand in front of her, "Shake hands with me."

Xu Shiqi slowly raised his hand and placed it on her palm.

"What do you feel when you hold my hand?" Wen Jialuo asked softly in her ear, "Tell me."

The earlobe was also a sensitive part of Xu Shiqi, and the approach of heat caused a slight tremor. She guessed the girl's intention, but unfortunately she couldn't let her wish come true, so she had to put the girl's hand on her waist, turned around, and kissed her.

Actions should speak louder than words. Wen Jialuo was not unwilling to accept the kiss, but she still couldn't help feeling sad. He would rather kiss her than talk to her. What was going on

"I like your kiss," Wen Jialuo said to her in between kisses, "I like the way you smile, and even the way you walk, I think it's very beautiful. There are so many things, and your voice is just one of them. In fact, you have to understand that no matter how you are, I like you." Wen Jialuo slowly stepped away and stared at her at a distance of only about 17 centimeters, "Let me hear..."

The most beautiful words in the world are nothing more than the sweet words between lovers. It was the first time that Wen Jialuo confessed her feelings to Xu Shiqi so directly. The sentences were undecorated, but every syllable seemed to be smeared with honey and sparkled with colorful lights. Xu Shiqi couldn't help but feel a little intoxicated. Her breathing began to speed up, and her chest rose and fell, as if she was preparing for a sprint.

Seeing that the mouth was about to open under his temptation, Wen Jialuo grabbed her hand tightly, trying to pass some strength to her.

Her fingers were pinched and hurt, and Xu Shiqi woke up instantly, her breathing still disordered. She opened her mouth, her neck straightened, her throat expanded, perhaps the other party would see everything she kissed, but she still couldn't squeeze out a syllable.

Seeing Xu Shiqi's face slowly turning red and showing a painful expression, Wen Jialuo panicked immediately, hugged her and gently stroked her trembling back, feeling that he was even more embarrassed than her: "Don't worry, don't worry, let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it! It's all my fault..."

Xu Shiqi leaned on her shoulder and slowly closed his eyes. He was unable to speak, but tears were still flowing and he could still taste the salty and bitter taste.

She has chosen this path, so no matter what, no matter what method, she must stick to it. People talk about gains and losses, not because of what you will lose after gaining, but because you must lose before you gain. Fortunately, she can still bear it. The psychological preparation for more than a month is not in vain, and repeating so many words in her mind every day is not a waste of time. All she did was just to hope that she could do better in the future.

There were some things that she decided to do, and she also decided to do them alone. But thinking that she would be so close to the girl every day, it became a test like being on a blazing fire. How strong her willpower would be to persist and not be melted, and it all depended on how much she wanted to be with this girl forever.

It is easy to make a decision, but difficult to stick to it. It was a long journey, and she had just taken the first step when she almost failed because of the girl's sweet words.

Be patient, be patient! It is sweeter to taste the bitterness first and then the sweetness...
