6. snatch away
In the group, they were chatting about the class reunion three days later. One word from you, one word from me, so lively. Someone asked Mr. Ma if he would come, and Mr. Ma replied that he would. Suddenly someone asked: Is Qiyang coming?
There was a sudden silence in the lively group. I looked at the interface where there were no more new messages, and my heart sank little by little. Sure enough, no matter how much time has passed, it will never change. I was about to quit the group chat when someone suddenly said: Come on, come on, I haven’t seen you for half a year, I miss you so much. Then I.
I glanced at her name: Yu Jie.
I don't know what happened, but several people said: Come on.
I stared blankly at the phone screen, and the words "I won't come if Xu Qiyang comes" that I thought would appear did not appear. The tense atmosphere at the beginning did not appear. I typed a few words lightly and said: OK.
God knows how much courage it takes for me to type these two words. In the past year, I won’t say anything, but I’ve really been riddled with holes by countless arrows. My trust in people is like these wounds pierced by arrows. Once, and a little less. So, slowly, I began to put a hedgehog-like shell on my body, and my face was as indifferent as a sign called "Stay away from strangers".
I'm not so indifferent, I'm just afraid of getting hurt again.
Yu Jie said in the group: Then we will wait for you!
When I saw this sentence, I couldn't help but smile. Once the first step is taken, the second step is much easier. I passed the verification of those friends one by one. There are more than a dozen friends in the address book.
When I came back to my senses, it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening. It seems that the charter is really not coming back tonight. I stood up from the sofa with some disappointment, and after sitting for two or three hours, my body was a little numb. I put on my slippers and headed to the bedroom. Lying in the bed, there is still the breath of Zhang Zhang. I buried my head deep in the pillow.
But in the middle of the night when I fell asleep in a daze, Zhang Zhang came back suddenly. He had had some wine, and I could smell it on his clothes. He was still wearing that suit, didn't even take off his leather shoes, sat on the edge of the bed, leaned over and hugged me, and said in his mouth: "Qiyang, today I won't be engaged to her, I'm engaged to you, I'm only engaged to you!"
He was probably drunk, and his speech was chaotic. But I woke up in a vague sleep, and when I heard his words, tears flowed down my face.
He touched my tears with his hand, as if something big had happened, he hugged me anxiously, pressed his cheek against my face, and said, "Don't cry, my heart hurts when you cry. Qiyang, don't cry……"
He said it in the tone of a child. I held his face and said, "I won't cry, I won't cry when you are by my side."
After I said this, he smiled contentedly.
I said, "Get up, I'll help you undress."
He obediently complied. I got out of bed, helped him take off his leather shoes and socks, then untied his belt, helped him take off his trousers, and helped him untie his tie. I said, "Go to sleep."
The two of us hugged and slept in the bed. He hugged me tightly like someone would snatch me away from him.
When he woke up the next day, he had recovered his usual calmness and clarity, made breakfast, and then woke me up. During breakfast, I told him that I was going to attend a class reunion two days later. But he frowned and said, "Didn't they treat you badly and bully you? It's good that I didn't settle accounts with them."
I quickly said: "Not everyone bullies me. There are some people who speak up for me. I just want to meet them, it's okay."
Zhang Zhang looked at me strangely several times, and asked, "Then... will Qi Yang go there?"
I opened my eyes wide, with a look of disbelief, and said, "Are you jealous, Zhang Cheng?"
There was a burst of embarrassment on his face, but he refused to admit it, saying, "How is it possible."
I decided not to expose him, but I couldn't help but smile smugly. I said, "Qi Yang is in the United States, how could he come here?"
When Zhang Zhang heard my words, there was a trace of astonishment in his eyes first, and then a touch of joy welled up in his eyes, and he said, "Really?"
At that time, I didn't know that the reason why Zhang Zhang behaved like this was because Qi Yang returned to China in early August. Zhang Zhang thought that I had been in touch with Qi Yang and knew about it long ago, but I didn't know it at all. That's what makes charter happy. I have no personal contact with Qi Yang.
So, it is conceivable that when I rushed to the place they had reserved and saw Qi Yang sitting among a group of people, I was so shocked.
However, soon, something that shocked me even more appeared. Qi Yang is accompanied by a very beautiful girl, Qi bangs, big eyes, oval face, fair skin, very star-like. Qi Yang introduced me: "She is my girlfriend, Lu Ying."
Before I could hide the surprise on my face, Qi Yang said again: "Don't worry, I won't pester you anymore."
I subconsciously looked at Lu Ying's face, but Lu Ying's expression remained the same, as if she knew about the past between me and Qi Yang. I managed to keep a smile on my face, but I didn't know what to say.
