I don't know why, facing the inexplicable and ambiguous aura between Second Aunt and Wen Jiubai, I feel very uncomfortable all over my body.
"Cough." I cleared my throat on purpose, and looked at Second Aunt, "By the way, Second Aunt, you've been in the hospital for so long, are you hungry?"
"Ah, what you said is really a little bit." The second aunt came back to her senses and smiled, "But it's almost dawn, so let's eat in the morning."
"Don't, when will we have to wait?" I hurriedly introduced myself and said eagerly, "I'm idle anyway, I'll go buy you something to eat."
"That's good, don't forget to buy one for yourself." Second Aunt showed a rare smile.
"Then I'll go too. I'm hungry too. I remember that there's a 24-hour McDonald's going out from here." Wen Jiubai pressed my head and walked out first.
"You!" My second aunt and I made amends for a laugh, and chased after him angrily.
It is already half past five in the morning, the sky is showing fish belly white, and the sun is getting ready to rise little by little. The morning air was bitingly cold, I sneezed several times and wrapped my clothes tightly.
"Where is there a 24-hour McDonald's?" I complained, "Why didn't I know there was a McDonald's on this street?"
"Maybe, maybe I remembered wrongly." Wen Jiubai said casually.
I couldn't get angry, "Then why are you so sure about what you said just now? What if we can't buy food now!"
"Didn't I see you looking very angry? That's why I want to go out with you to relax. Why, don't you like me being so close to your second aunt? Are you jealous?" Wen Jiubai laughed, stretched out his hand and pinched the bridge of my nose .
I frowned, and knocked off Wen Jiubai Hulai's hand with a "snap".
"I'm angry, but not with your relationship with my second aunt, but with your current behavior!"
Wen Jiubai was surprised for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, "What is your behavior now?"
I was angry and funny, this Wen Jiubai really didn't have any self-awareness at all, and now he still doesn't realize where he is going too far. Sometimes I feel that he seems to be extremely smart, but sometimes I feel that he is like a child without common sense.
"You've been treating me like a child." I said, suppressing my anger, "Whether it's what you said to your mother about your boyfriend before, or your behavior in the hospital just now, you treat me like a child. Never respected my opinion. Wen Jiubai, I don't care who you are, and I don't want to care whether you are a ghost, but you can't pretend to be my boyfriend and treat me like a child at the same time!"
Wen Jiubai raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I didn't..."
"Don't deny it, you just have it!" I said more and more angrily, and responded to him angrily, "Although I just went to college this year, even though I'm only eighteen years old this year, it doesn't mean that I'm just an idiot who doesn't know anything. Kid. I have brains, I can think for myself. I don't need your 'rescue', and I don't need someone to come out and save me at all times, and you are not even mine. So don't Always trying to make decisions for me, or keep me in the dark like an idiot?"
"I never lied to you..." Wen Jiubai said in a low voice.
"Yeah, you really haven't. But you've been hiding it from me, and I'm not a fool, do you think I really can't see it?" I said angrily.
Wen Jiubai was still very calm, "Like what?"
"For example, the night you went to my second aunt's house to find a skunk twenty years ago, you didn't actually play poker all night, did you?" I said word by word.
Wen Jiubai fell silent, he looked at my face without saying a word, which made me feel a little trembling. It was as if a hole had been drilled out of my face by his gaze.
"I didn't hide it on purpose. I'm just afraid that if you find out..." Wen Jiubai spoke slowly after a long time.
"What are you afraid of me? Afraid that I will be jealous? Jealous? Afraid that I will go and stab my own second aunt to death!" I couldn't help interrupting Wen Jiubai again, "So this is what I said, in your eyes I was a little kid from the beginning to the end. You are afraid that I will screw things up, and you are afraid that I will lose my temper with jealousy. What are you thinking? You are too narcissistic, and you are not really My boyfriend."
For a moment, I thought my words hurt Wen Jiubai's heart, because his expression changed for a moment. But before I could see clearly, he had returned to normal.
"Sorry, I didn't expect you to think so much." Wen Jiubai showed me a gentle smile. His blunt apology made me a little bit at a loss.
"As you said, I did subconsciously hide some things from you." Wen Jiubai sighed, and scratched his hair like a child in annoyance, "But believe me, that's really not my intention. Maybe it's over Over the years, lying has become a habit of mine. It's not that I don't trust you or treat you like a child, trust me."
I looked at him with some confusion, sometimes I really didn't know what was in this person's mind at all, and I didn't understand his past at all.
"Just now in the hospital, my second aunt said..." I whispered, "You said that you haven't changed at all compared to the past."
Wen Jiubai looked at me.
"Did she mean... your face?" I asked.
My heart was pounding, and I didn't know whether I was expecting or fearing his answer deep in my heart. However, Wen Jiubai, as usual, looked into my eyes calmly, and didn't seem to find my question so offensive.
"Who knows." Wen Jiubai shrugged and gave an unscrupulous answer.
After hearing this answer, I almost didn't fall down, but Wen Jiubai actually walked forward on his own, muttering things like "Is McDonald's here anyway?"
"Wen Jiubai! You're here again!" I was filled with righteous indignation.
"What's coming again?"
"You do this every time! Use this kind of vague answer to pass!" I was furious, "If you don't want to tell me, just tell me if you can!"
Wen Jiubai stopped suddenly, turned his head, and looked at me very seriously, "I see. Then I—don't want to tell you."
At that moment I wanted to kick him into outer space or whatever, and never come back.
However, we walked around the hospital and did not see the 24-hour McDonald's. On the contrary, as the sky is getting brighter, many small carts for breakfast slowly come out for business. Wen Jiubai and I bought two roujiamo and brought another one for my second aunt, and we were going back to the hospital to check on the situation.
