It took less than three seconds for the phone to be connected before being picked up by Zhou Qin. Before Xiao Wanqing could speak, Zhou Qin's hearty voice rang out before Xiao Wanqing: "Hello, Xiao Wan? Have you eaten yet?"
Xiao Wanqing didn't expect Zhou Qin to connect so quickly, she was stunned for a moment, the wording that had been imagined countless times, suddenly seemed to have been forgotten. There was a moment of daze in her mind, and she responded politely according to her instinct: "Have you eaten dinner, sister?" In fact, she has been sitting on the bed since she woke up all day today, thinking about it. I was tired, I didn't know how long I slept in a daze, and then I woke up, and I have been sitting there until now, without a drop of water.
Zhou Qin didn't notice her abnormality, and responded with a smile: "I have eaten too. You said it was a coincidence, I happened to be holding a mobile phone, and I was about to call you."
Xiao Wanqing has been hesitating in her heart, how to tell Zhou Qin: This semester... Lin Xian should not come this semester. But when she heard Zhou Qin's hearty laughter, she couldn't speak for a while, so she had to hold back in an evasive manner, and asked Zhou Qin in a warm voice: "What's wrong, sister?"
Zhou Qin glanced at Lin Xian, who was sitting on the sofa next to her and staring at him since she picked up the phone, and sighed, "I made an agreement with you before the holiday, and I will send Xian Xian over like eleven or twelve." But now, there is a temporary change. The 20th anniversary classmate reunion of Ah Zhan University is scheduled for the eighth day of the eighth day. We decided to travel to Wucheng together for three days and two nights. I planned to bring Xianxian to go together, who knows I just talked to her about it, and she didn't want to, she said she didn't want to be a light bulb to join in the fun. This guy didn't get up on time for breakfast every day during the holidays. I was worried that she would starve to death alone at home, so I thought Let me ask you, is it convenient for Xianxian to go there a few days earlier?"
Xiao Wanqing's heartbeat seemed to have missed a beat, the hand holding the mobile phone was squeezed slightly, and she gritted her teeth, the word "inconvenient" lingered on the tip of her tongue again and again, ready to come out. However, it was still stuck in my throat, no matter what, no matter what, I couldn't make a sound, couldn't spit it out.
How should she reject Lin Xian so as not to hurt Lin Xian? After she rejected Lin Xian, what should Lin Xian do this semester? Lin Xian...would you blame her, hold her grudge...Sister Zhou Qin, would you be supercilious? Would he think that he was afraid of trouble, broke his promise, changed his mind temporarily, and never had any contact with her again
She was originally a soft-hearted and considerate person, but the determination before the phone call disappeared without a trace, and she began to look forward and backward again, hesitating. After a while, she heard a voice that seemed to come from the sky, and she answered Zhou Qin: "It's okay, of course it's convenient..."
Who is talking
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Qin's voice relaxed all of a sudden: "That's great, I'll trouble you, Xiao Wan. To be honest, I can't be more relieved to hand over Xianxian to you. You don't know , After she came home this time, she unexpectedly surrounded me to learn how to cook from time to time, and asked her why she had a sudden whim, do you know how she answered me?" Like all parents who love their daughters, Zhou Qin showed a little pampering. He proudly asked himself and answered: "She said that if she learns the cooking skills well, she can help Aunt Xiao and mother share a little bit in the future when she has time."
"You know, she didn't want to get close to the kitchen at all before. I guess it's because of Xiao Wan's subtle influence on her."
Xiao Wanqing bit her lip, listening to Zhou Qinman's words of trust and gratitude, she became more and more ashamed. If, if sister Zhou Qin knew, she... what kind of person she handed her daughter over to, what would happen...
She couldn't imagine it at all.
She didn't dare to imagine Zhou Qin, the woman she had always been close to as her sister, when she was disappointed in her eyes, she couldn't imagine Zhou Qin's expression when she disliked her, she didn't dare at all...
Life is already such a nightmare, do you want to add another scene
Heart, like a knife, bit by bit fiercely.
She was extremely hesitant, but she still made up her mind to open her lips again, and said with difficulty: "Sister, I..."
At the same time, Zhou Qin also said: "Xiao Wan, I..."
Two voices sounded at the same time, Zhou Qin smiled when he heard the voice, and said gently: "You speak first."
Xiao Wanqing's courage, which was about to rise just now, was suddenly sluggish at this interruption, like a deflated ball that had been pierced by a sharp thorn. She narrowed her eyes, her throat trembled, and said in a low voice: "Sister, please talk first."
Zhou Qin is a straightforward person, and the sisters are not too polite, so he said straight to the point: "I heard that you like drinking oolong tea before, and it happened that Lin Zhan went to the next province to participate in a tea fair a few years ago. A purple sand tea set. I just want to bring it to you this time. I’ll send you a photo later, so you can choose which one you like more?”
Xiao Wanqing's heart was astringent, and she felt sorry for Zhou Qin, so she immediately declined and said, "No need, sister, brother Lin Zhan must like it very much if he buys it, how can I win someone's favor?"
Zhou Qin said angrily: "I bought two sets for the purpose of bringing you one set. Why are you being polite to me?" She deliberately suppressed her voice, and said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Wan, I will hand over the envy to you, please. I have been with you for so long, and I have never been polite to you. If you are so polite to me, is it because you are alienating me? Do you want me to be embarrassed to let Xianxian borrow your house... "
She had considered it carefully, and if she gave Xiao Wanqing money, Xiao Wanqing would definitely not accept it. She didn't say anything, she knew that Xiao Wanqing's kindness would not be taken to heart, but she felt sorry for herself. She had thought about other things, but Xiao Wanqing didn't seem to lack any of them, and buying them rashly might cause trouble and embarrassment to her. The tea set is the safest. Even if not in use, it is valuable for collection. She remembered that when Xiao Wanqing's father was alive, he liked collecting very much.
Xiao Wanqing felt even more ashamed to hear Zhou Qin irritating her like this and talking so harshly, and could no longer say that sentence: "Sister Zhou Qin, I'm afraid it will not be very convenient for me to take care of Xianxian this semester..."
After a while, she reluctantly agreed: "Then, thank you sister and brother-in-law..."
Zhou Qin was satisfied: "That's right, why are you being polite?" After finishing speaking, she remembered and asked, "What did you want to tell me just now?"
Xiao Wanqing leaned against the back of the bed with a desperate heart, covered her forehead in pain with one hand, frowned, and found an excuse feebly: "It's nothing. Originally... I wanted to ask sister two days ago if you have time to come out with me Shall I have dinner with Wen Tong? Just right, I will entrust you with the gift and bring it to the teacher for me." The teacher she was talking about was naturally Zhou Qin's father, her tutor when she was a graduate student.
Zhou Qin thought about his itinerary for a while, but he really couldn't get away, and said apologetically, "I'm going to take the students to several villages to do a research report on local customs in the past two days. I'm afraid I don't have time. I'll send the things When Xianxian passes by, please take it back for you, and after dinner, Lin Zhan and I will come back from the party and invite you and Wen Tong together."
Xiao Wanqing responded softly: "Okay."
She asked herself, can a shameless person like her, who covets other people's priceless treasures, still have the face to eat the meal that Lin Xian's parents invited her to eat
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Wanqing raised her hand and slapped herself hard, the pain made her ears buzz.
what is she doing
Obviously not thinking so.
Why in the end, still can't speak
Why did Lin Xian still come over in the end
Obviously, in the past, she has always been able to clearly understand that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, and the lesser of two evils.
Now, what happened to her...
No matter how Xiao Wanqing tossed and turned in the next two days, how much she hesitated and wanted to repent, in the end, she still failed to make that rejected call again.
Finally, on the evening of the seventh day of the seventh day, she welcomed Zhou Qin and Lin Xian.
Lin Xian hadn't seen Xiao Wanqing for a week. As soon as she opened the door and saw the gentle and beautiful face of her sweetheart, she couldn't help but flung herself into Xiao Wanqing's arms in front of her mother, passionately Embracing that thin and soft body, sniffing the familiar fragrance of Xiao Wanqing's body that fascinated her, she said coquettishly, "I miss Aunt Xiao so much..."
Zhou Qin looked at her helplessly, and joked: "How old you are, but still like a child, you know how to act like a baby."
Xiao Wanqing was not at all as calm as their mother and daughter. The moment she saw Lin Xian, she confirmed again that she... was serious and fell in love with Lin Xian.
Otherwise, how could my heart be so joyful and joyful, yet so entangled in pain.
Lin Xian regards her as a close elder, so he can hug her frankly and express his heartfelt love in front of Zhou Qin, but she has a dark heart, but she can't do it. She was hugged stiffly by Lin Xian, and her guilt and guilt even caused a thin layer of sweat to break out on her forehead for no reason in the cold winter months.
She broke away from Lin Xian's embrace calmly and slightly, she was too ashamed to look directly at Zhou Qin Heyue's smiling face, she just turned sideways and helped Lin Xian pull the handle of the suitcase, her tone trembling almost imperceptibly Greeting: "Sister, Xianxian, you are here, come in."
Afterwards, Lin Xian was rushed back to the room by Zhou Qin to put the luggage back, while Zhou Qin himself was in the living room, chatting with Xiao Wanqing. She didn't know that every smile she said to Xiao Wanqing, and her greetings and greetings, to Xiao Wanqing, made her feel like she was in boiling water, unable to live or die, extremely tormented.
Xiao Wanqing didn't dare to look directly at her at all. Zhou Qin trusted her warm eyes, and always kept his head slightly sideways, looking for something out of sight as a landing point.
Fortunately, within thirty minutes, Zhou Qin saw that the night was getting dark, and Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing still had to take a shower to tidy up, so he got up and went to Lin Xian's room, and after telling Lin Xian a few clichés such as being obedient, he took his leave and left. up.
As soon as Zhou Qin left, Xiao Wanqing suddenly relaxed. As if a great battle had ended, she closed the door, leaning her back against the door, almost collapsed. Lin Xian didn't notice Xiao Wanqing's abnormality. Seeing her mother gone, she immediately ran and jumped happily to her room, and said to Xiao Wanqing while running, "Aunt Xiao, I brought you a gift."
Xiao Wan stared at the girl's pretty and lively figure with complicated eyes, and let out a long sigh in her heart.
After a long time, Lin Xian came out, carrying a brand new handbag with a famous brand in his hand, smiling like offering a treasure, and handed it to Xiao Wanqing with both hands: "Aunt Xiao, this is for you. I asked Brother Cheng Jun to bring it from the United States. I came back." After that, she stuck out her tongue, and said a little embarrassedly: "I bought it with the New Year's money I saved before, I... I usually spend a lot of money, so I don't save much, only enough to buy this one, I'm afraid My mother was jealous, so I didn't tell my mother."
Xiao Wanqing looked down at the expensive new season handbag on the girl's hands. After a while, she moved her gaze upwards, looked at the girl's bright and clear smiling face, and listened to her sincere and soft voice. , happy and sad...
What is she capable of
How can He De get the trust and trust of Zhou Qin, and how can He De get the love and love of Lin Xian...
She lowered her cloudy eyes and forced herself to be calm, but Wen Sheng resolutely rejected Lin Xian and said, "I can't accept this." She finally raised her eyes, looked directly at the eyes that flashed with surprise and sadness after hearing the rejection, and explained Said: "Xianxian, you are still young and not yet financially independent, so I can't accept such an expensive gift from you."
Lin Xian argued aggrievedly: "I didn't ask my parents for money to buy it. I bought it with the New Year's money I saved. It's my own money."
Xiao Wanqing looked at her with gentle eyes but with determination, shook her head and said: "This is different, Lin Xian." She paused, pursed her lips, and said softly: "Xianxian, even if you make money in the future, the first The one who can share with you should not be me, but your parents. Auntie, I am not qualified. "
She saw Lin Xian frowning, staring at her with big black eyes like spots of paint, full of disappointment and sadness, but still soft-hearted. She took the bag in Lin Xian's hand with both hands, changed her face, revealed a light and moving smile, and praised her in a slight tone: "Xianxian has a very fashionable eye. This is so beautiful. In fact, I was in the I saw it in a magazine and liked it very much, and I was thinking that when my friend is convenient, I would ask her to bring one for me." She asked Lin Xian nonchalantly, "I'll call you brother Cheng Jun later, okay?" Xiao Wanqing knew that Lin Xian must have given the money to Xu Chengjun, she just wanted to give Lin Xian a step down.
Listening to Xiao Wanqing's relentless refusal, self-deprecating self-effacement, and the tone that was obviously deceiving the children in the end, Lin Xian was filled with joy and enthusiasm, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head, chilling his heart.
Her thin lips were tightly pursed into a stubborn straight line, staring at Xiao Wanqing for a moment, her brows were tightened, and after a long while, she said two words lightly: "Not good."
In fact, she knew in her heart that with Xiao Wanqing's character, it was reasonable and expected to reject her.
However, in her heart, she was inexplicably sad and unacceptable.
It seems that she has worked hard for a long time, desperately narrowing the distance with Xiao Wanqing, but there is still a huge invisible gap between them.
Just like, Xiao Wanqing can accept Zhou Qin's expensive tea set calmly, but she can't accept her wishes.
There is also a gap between adults and adults.
She still did not obtain an equal adult status in Xiao Wanqing's heart.
Xiao Wanqing was surprised to hear such a cold voice from the girl, and looked into Lin Xian's dark and deep eyes in surprise, only to realize that in the girl's youthful complexion, there was a stubbornness and stubbornness that she had never seen before.
The young man's eyebrows and eyes are as sharp as a sword drawn from its sheath, and they are so vivid and eye-catching, touching the heartstrings. For a moment, her heart became a little confused again.
In the end, under the confrontation, Lin Xian's sanity slowly returned.
Not yet. Not yet. Take your time. She comforted herself repeatedly in her heart.
She finally eased her brows and eyes, smiled again at the corners of her lips, and said compromisingly to Xiao Wanqing: "It's because I didn't think carefully. I'm sorry, Aunt Xiao, but it will cost you the other way around." She raised her head, shining brightly. The water eyes looked at Xiao Wanqing with a warm smile, like a little milk dog waiting to be groomed, and asked Xiao Wanqing half coquettishly: "From now on, if I make money by myself, I can buy gifts for you, Auntie Xiao, Auntie, you will accept it, right?" The ending sound is delicate and soft, which is endearing.
Xiao Wanqing saw the girl retreated sensiblely, and felt a slight pain in her heart. Did she feel wronged
Seeing the girl's obedient appearance as usual, she really wanted to reach out to rub her little head, scrape her little nose, and hug her to comfort her. However, thinking about her unspeakable feelings, she finally hardened her heart, not daring to reach out or touch.
She took a step back imperceptibly, distanced herself from Lin Xian, nodded lightly, and said softly, "Well, let's talk about it later."
Disappointment flashed across Lin Xian's heart. Usually, the seductive gesture that can soften Aunt Xiao's heart, but this time, did not get Aunt Xiao's usual love and affection.
Was she too blunt and exposed something just now, which scared Aunt Xiao, so she didn't want to rub and hug her to comfort herself.
She didn't know that Xiao Wanqing was writing a draft in her heart, telling herself that when she told Lin Xian that she wanted to separate the study room or even eat separately, she must not soften her heart, and she must be firm in the future, keeping a distance from Lin Xian.
She took a step back and made psychological preparations for herself: Even if she had to be under the same roof, but reduce the time of unnecessary meeting and contact, slowly, it will definitely get better, and the feeling will definitely cool down slowly.
A momentary heartbeat is more often just a momentary hormonal impulse.
Humans are rational animals after all.
When the hormones recede, everything can always return to the normal track.
