It's almost eleven o'clock when the feast is over and the feast is over. Xiao Wanqing offered to call a car to take them home, but was declined by several children, so she had no choice but to tell Xia Zhijin to slow down and be careful on the road, and send a text message to Lin Xian when she got home.
Xiao Wanqing stayed at home to clean up the dishes and sanitation, and Lin Xian sent the students downstairs.
After getting out of the elevator, Xia Zhijin walked far ahead alone, Chen Zhi and Tang Mo followed side by side, Lin Xian and Shi Man, who had deliberately slowed down a little, were the last.
Afterwards, Shi Man had a bit of trouble, she seemed to have drunk a little too much wine, and her fair and tender face was stained with blush, which added a bit of coquettishness to her bright complexion. But her eyes were bright, not drunk. When she was about to leave the building, she was still articulate and begged Lin Xian, "You owe me a thank you and a matchmaker's red envelope."
Lin Xian pretended to be stupid: "What are you talking about?"
"Heh", Shi Man sneered, "Just pretend...". She said to herself coolly: "It seems that next time, there is no need to help. People don't appreciate the effort."
"Ah, I was wrong, I was wrong." Lin Xian immediately changed his tone, exaggerated and said: "Manman, why are you so smart, Manman, how do you know everything. Thank you, Manman, for your kindness today. Lin Xian must be deeply impressed and unforgettable." After she finished speaking, she cast her eyes on Xia Zhijin, who was not far away in front of him, and lowered her voice slightly, and said with concern: "Today, you suddenly exposed yourself. Sister... Is there nothing wrong with Senior Sister?"
Shi Man's eyes also moved towards Xia Zhijin, and there seemed to be dark waves in his eyes. A few seconds later, she narrowed her eyes and explained to Lin Xian: "It's okay. Lin Xian. Our situation is different, and I don't want to wait any longer."
If, between Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing, neither Xiao Wanqing nor Lin Xian dared to think about this possibility.
Then between her, Shiman and Xia Zhijin, Xia Zhijin has always been avoiding this possibility.
For those who pretend to be stupid, one is enough.
When approaching the temporary parking spot where Xia Zhijin's car was parked, Shi Man suddenly grabbed Lin Xian's hand, made a posture to push Lin Xian's hand away, raised his voice and said to Lin Xian, "Lin Xian Xian, don't help me, I'm just a little dizzy, I'm not drunk, I can walk by myself."
Lin Xian was inexplicably held by Shi Man, and when he heard her impromptu words, he froze. She glanced at Xia Zhijin, Chen Zhi, and Tang Mo who were looking at them with concern, looked at Shi Man secretly, and asked her with her eyes: "What are you doing?"
However, Shi Man seemed not to understand her question, with a really drunk posture, looked at her with blurred eyes, let go of her hand, and said with a smile: "Here, I'm leaving, thank you and Aunt Xiao Evening treat." She suddenly raised her voice, and shouted foolishly: "Say it again, Lin Xian, happy birthday!" As she spoke, she walked towards Xia Zhijin's car with a little frivolity.
Xia Zhijin strode forward with her long legs, and within a few steps she reached Shiman's body, and held Shiman firmly. When she lowered her head, she could smell the faint smell of alcohol all over her body. The smell of alcohol mixed with Shiman's original fragrance, it wasn't unpleasant, but it still made Xia Zhijin frown.
"You drank too much." Xia Zhijin's voice was always clear and cold.
Shi Man took advantage of the situation and leaned on Xia Zhijin's body. She raised her eyes to see Xia Zhijin's tall and straight bridge of nose protruding between her eyebrows, looked at her slightly drawn long eyelashes, and asked her softly and charmingly: "Then why didn't you just now?" Stop me?" She leaned close to Xia Zhijin's ear and whispered, "I thought you wouldn't dare to approach me anymore..."
Lin Xian was keenly aware that Xia Zhijin's body seemed to tremble slightly imperceptibly. She raised her hand, as if she was about to touch Shi Man in the next second, when she pushed Shi Man away, Shi Man consciously withdrew from Xia Zhijin's embrace, stood up straight, turned around and talked to Lin Xian as if nothing had happened. Greeted: "Lin Xian, just send it here, you can go back."
Xia Zhijin's hand gradually clenched into a fist, and gradually lowered down in vain. She also raised her eyes to look at Lin Xian, her brows were cold, but she said to Lin Xian thoughtfully: "Go back, it's windy at night, you didn't wear a coat when you came down, be careful to catch a cold."
Chen Zhi and Tang Mo also stood beside the car and echoed: "Lin Xian, go up. We will remember to send you a text message when we get home. We had a great time today, thank you."
Lin Xian nodded, but didn't move a bit: "I'll wait for you to get in the car and drive out."
Everyone had no choice but to urge Xia Zhijin: "Senior sister, let's go." After Xia Zhijin unlocked the door, she quickly climbed into the car.
It wasn't until Xia Zhijin's car shadow merged with the dark night and completely disappeared from her vision that Lin Xian took a step, turned around and went upstairs to go home.
As soon as she entered the elevator, she pressed the button of the floor key, and the phone's text message sounded.
Lin Xian took out the phone, opened it, the sender was Shi Man, and the text message was only short, with no beginning and no end, eight characters
-The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.
Lin Xian stared blankly at the eight characters, with many thoughts rushing out of her mind, but until the screen went dark, until the elevator door opened with a "ding dong", she couldn't be sure, Shi Man, what was it? want to tell her something.
She put away her mobile phone, and was just about to take out the key to open the door when the anti-theft door opened with a "click".
Xiao Wanqing opened the door from the inside, poked her head out and said with a smile, "I heard it should be your footsteps."
Lin Xian entered, closed the door, and teased her while changing her shoes: "Then what if you got it wrong, it's not me but the bad guy?"
Xiao Wanqing walked back to the living room, and began to bend over to pack up the scattered electric toys and unpacked snack potato chips, with complete trust in her tone, and briskly said: "You run so fast, you will definitely come back soon to help me run away of."
Lin Xian couldn't help but curled her lips into a smile when she heard this, but gradually, she seemed to think of something, and the smile slowly disappeared from the corners of her lips.
She walked to Xiao Wanqing's side, lowered her head and accompanied Xiao Wanqing to tidy up the living room and move the coffee table, her eyes gradually dimmed.
Aunt Xiao, I can run fast, not at all fast...
I can't beat that bad guy at all...
She slowly put everything back in place silently, straightened up, and was about to sweep the floor with a broom, Xiao Wanqing sat down on the sofa at some point, stared at her quietly, and suddenly asked softly She: "Xianxian, do you have anything to ask me?"
The smile on the corner of her lips was very gentle, and the eyes that met Lin Xian were open and bright.
Lin Xian stopped his movements immediately, stared at Xiao Wanqing, bit his lip, opened his mouth several times, but still hesitated to speak.
Xiao Wanqing naturally brushed back her loose hair, slightly bent her eyebrows, and waited patiently, encouraging Lin Xian to open her mouth.
Lin Xian swallowed her saliva, moved an independent single sofa stool, and sat opposite Xiao Wanqing. She looked up at Xiao Wanqing halfway, hesitated again and again, and still asked: "Aunt Xiao, just now, the game, is it true?" As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly added: "I didn't mean to offend. "
Xiao Wanqing smiled, and replied in a warm voice: "I know, it's okay. It's true, Lin Xian, I like girls." Without avoiding her, she answered Lin Xian simply and frankly. "Lin Xian, it's today, only today, you can ask whatever you want, and I'll tell you everything."
Lin Xian couldn't believe it, and stared at Xiao Wanqing in surprise and joy. She clasped her hands nervously and placed them on her knees. After a moment of silence, she opened her lips and asked for confirmation: "Then... you and your parents, did you quarrel because of this? Aunt Wen Tong knows, but Including my mother, no one else knows?"
The smile on Xiao Wanqing's lips gradually dissipated. She seemed to be remembering the past, the color in her eyes gradually deepened...
"Well. She doesn't like my blind date, so I confessed it to my parents to make her feel at ease."
"Then... what happened next?" Lin Xian knew that she shouldn't ask any more. However, she still couldn't help it. When she thought of the young woman with a big belly and the lonely Xiao Wanqing, she felt like another fire was burning in her heart, and a knife was lingering.
"Later..." There was a faint smile on Xiao Wanqing's lips. "Later, her mother fell ill, and her last wish was to see her get married and have children, and have a lifelong life. So, she went to get married, and we broke up."
She didn't tell Lin Xian that Yan Jia's mother had seen her once before she fell ill, and she was so lively and arrogant that she asked her to leave Yan Jia on her own initiative, but she didn't agree. Later, not long after, Yan Jia's mother became seriously ill. Yan Jia took her to visit, and when her mother sent Yan Jia away and left the two of them alone, she told her contemptuously, "I can tell you frankly that I was pretending to be sick, but it's useless if you know." ". Sure enough, later, when she gently reminded Yan Jia of the suddenness and authenticity of her mother's illness, Yan Jia had a big fight with her and asked her why she used such sinister thoughts to speculate about the end of her poor serious illness. The mother whose bed is dying.
Poor, huh, who is pitiful.
Inseparable kiss!
Not close to each other. It's her who is pitiful, and it's only at that time that she realizes that she is the one who is careless.
Xiao Wanqing spoke in a few words and said it lightly, but Lin Xian heard it, his anger was burning, and his heart felt like a knife...
For her sake, Aunt Xiao overcame obstacles, abandoned everything and had nothing, and that person turned around and got married and had children with peace of mind? Her mother needed to be filial, so she left. Then when she asked Aunt Xiao to come out, didn't she consider that Aunt Xiao's parents also needed to be filial? She clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug deep into the flesh of her palm without even noticing it.
Finally, Lin Xian was still furious, couldn't hold back, raised his right fist, and slammed it on the glass of the coffee table, making a loud "bang" sound, gritted his teeth and cursed, "Scum!"
Xiao Wanqing was startled by her sudden movement and stood up all of a sudden. Panicked, she quickly ran to Lin Xian, squatted down, hugged Lin Xian's right hand with trembling hands and threw it at the coffee table. It was the first time she spoke harshly like this, and she scolded Lin Xian in panic and annoyance: "Lin Xian, are you having a seizure?"
The back of Lin Xian's delicate and fair hand was instantly torn under the forceful impact, and it was covered with terrifying red blood. Xiao Wanqing stood up hurriedly, and was about to go to the cabinet not far from the living room to get the medicine box to disinfect and bandage Lin Xian.
However, Lin Xian stretched out the hand that was stiff with pain, and held her, his eyes were red, and he said to her in a choked voice: "Aunt Xiao, I'm not convulsed, I love you..."
Xiao Wanqing stared at the girl's bloody hand and her red eyes, and suddenly, her eye sockets were also red.
For so many years, she didn't dare to mention that relationship to people who didn't know about it, she didn't dare to reveal it, so she could only anesthetize herself with work. Colleagues scolded her in private for being showy, and old classmates told her behind her back that she had forgotten her origins when they couldn't get an appointment with her. She didn't dare to cry or laugh, so she could only smash her teeth and swallow it in her stomach. Among those who knew, Wen Tong scolded her for being stupid, her parents mocked her for taking the blame, only Lin Xian, only Lin Xian said to her, "I love you."
She didn't know where the hypocrisy, childishness and grievance came from, and the tears suddenly seemed to be out of control, and they couldn't help falling down...
Lin Xian took Xiao Wanqing's hand and stood up. She grew a little taller, almost as tall as Xiao Wanqing. She approached Xiao Wanqing, looking at the gentle and beautiful face with pear blossoms and rain, she really wanted to get closer and kiss away the moisture on it bit by bit...
However, she bit her lower lip so hard that it was about to bleed, but she restrained it rationally in the end. She stretched out her hand, encircled Xiao Wanqing bit by bit, and hugged her frail body in her arms.
She whispered in her ear, "Thank you, Aunt Xiao. Thank you for your trust, thank you for your frankness, thank you for being close, thank you."
"In the future, I will take care of you."
