do you owe

Gu Qingmei wandered around with Xiang Weiwei for a day, watching her buy a bunch of things, and dutifully helped her carry them back.

The two got on and off the bus in the town, and walked to take the car around the city to go home. Gu Qingmei kept looking around, hoping to bump into Hang Junbai's figure.

Of course to no avail.

In the end, she just carried a bunch of things and went home in a normal way.

After entering the courtyard, Gu Qingmei took a closer look at Hang Junbai's house. Although the gate was open, there was no one in sight.

I don't know if Hang Junbai has come back...

She went back to her bedroom, took out her mobile phone and started to scan Hang Junbai's circle of friends, but she was still disappointed that nothing came out.

Send a message to Hang Junbai directly?

But what kind of reasons and excuses to use... She couldn't find it.

Unbearably lying on the bed for a while, Gu Qingmei suddenly remembered Hang Junbai's clothes hanging in her house, and hurriedly went downstairs to look.

The weather is getting hotter, and the clothes that were hung to dry last night are now completely dry. Gu Qingmei took them away, folded them neatly, then took a picture, sent it to Hang Junbai, and asked her: "The clothes are dry, are you at home?" Is it? I'll bring it to you."

After waiting for almost 10 minutes, the news from Hang Junbai came back.

"not at home."

Gu Qingmei took advantage of the situation and asked: "Have you not returned home yet? I saw you in town today, with a girl. Is that the senior who called you yesterday?"

Hang Junbai: "Yes."

Gu Qingmei hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and continued to ask: "I see that you have a very close relationship with her... Do you have a good relationship?"

This question was a bit out of line, and she didn't know if Hang Junbai would answer it.

Gu Qingmei's eyes were fixed on the screen, and when she saw the prompt "The other party is typing" on the interface, her heart beat suddenly.

After half a minute, Hang Junbai gave an answer that was not a non-answer: "No."

Gu Qingmei didn't know how to continue the conversation.

You can't just open the door and ask, "Are you gay? Are you dating?"

How embarrassing would it be if I misunderstood myself?

But this matter made Gu Qingmei feel uncomfortable like a cat scratching in her heart, she couldn't help but bite the bullet and continued: "But that senior sister seems to care about you very much, and even ran so far to find you, why don't you two have a good relationship? "

no reply.

Gu Qingmei looked at herself and regretted that sentence, did she ask too rashly?

At this moment, the phone shook slightly, and Hang Junbai replied: "Because I don't like her."

Seeing that sentence, Gu Qingmei straightened her body all of a sudden.

If you don't like Senior Sister, it is tantamount to denying that they are dating.

Gu Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief, held the phone and thought for a while, then typed out a sentence boldly: "Then what do you like?"

After sending, Gu Qingmei anxiously waited for a reply.

As a result, Hang Junbai's reply was equally vague.

She replied with four words: "I like it."

It's like not answering.

Gu Qingmei was very disappointed, but then thought that Hang Junbai was not with that senior sister, and couldn't help secretly happy, at least she is still single.

I just don't know if Hang Junbai likes boys or girls... But from the feeling, she doesn't seem like someone who would fall in love with boys.

But these things are all Gu Qingmei's personal conjectures, without any basis, she dare not arbitrarily conclude, let alone confess her love to Hang Junbai directly.

The taste of these girls' thoughts full of ups and downs can only be tasted by her alone.

Dinner was still at Aunt Li's house.

At that time, Hang Junbai had just arrived home not long ago, and was sitting on the sofa drinking water.

Gu Qingmei sat on the other side, racking her brains to figure out how to open up the topic, so as to ask what Hang Junbai did with that senior sister today...

"What did you do with Mingxi today, and you come home so late?" Li Baihe spoke first, and while asking, kindly poured Gu Qingmei a glass of water.

Hang Junbai said without expression: "Nothing."

Li Baihe smiled: "Can you stay for a day without doing anything?"

Hang Junbai glanced at Li Baihe's face, and said honestly and in detail: "Have a meal with her, and then send her back."

Li Baihe pursed her lips, and the arc of her smile was perfect and elegant, but the smile inside was a bit cold: "Have you returned to Haibei?"

Haibei, where Hang Junbai studied before transferring to another school.

Hang Junbai immediately said: "No. Mingxi wanted to come to my house after dinner, but I disagreed. I argued with her for a long time, and it was already late when I finally sent her the car to Shanghai North. That's why I came back so late. "

Li Baihe's smile softened all of a sudden, and she stretched out her hand to gently touch Hang Junbai's face: "Little Bai, my mother believes that you didn't lie to me. Let's eat."

"En." Hang Junbai lowered his eyelashes, staring at the steaming cup in his hand.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became inexplicably dull.

Gu Qingmei finished her meal carefully, and when Hang Junbai finished eating, she immediately followed her upstairs.

The two entered Hang Junbai's bedroom one after another.

Hang Junbai sat directly on the desk and chair, looked up slightly, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Gu Qingmei felt more and more strange, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter? Why did Aunt Li ask you like that if you went back to Haibei?"

Hang Junbai lowered his eyes slowly, and said softly, "She's afraid I'll go find him."

Gu Qingmei was puzzled: "Who?"

Hang Junbai said softly, "My dad."

Gu Qingmei was quiet, and carefully asked: "Did they... quarrel?"

She carefully replaced the word divorce.

Hang Junbai pulled the corner of his mouth, wondering if he was smiling.

"It's always been arguing, endlessly."

Gu Qingmei felt a pain in her heart, wanted to comfort Hang Junbai, but didn't know what to say, so she held back for a long time, she simply revealed her family affairs in embarrassment and said: "My father passed away unexpectedly due to a work accident when I was very young."

Hang Junbai turned his eyes to look at her, his pupils were dark.

Gu Qingmei continued: "My grandma said that my mother died of illness, but I know it was not. She ran away with another man."

Hang Junbai didn't answer.

Gu Qingmei continued on her own: "My father told me that if my mother hadn't stolen my father's compensation, the family wouldn't be so poor that they couldn't even repair the house. He also said that my mother It's a cousin, my dad died within half a year, and she hooked up with other men..."

Hang Junbai sat up straight and pursed his lips.

Gu Qingmei knew that she definitely wanted to say something to comfort herself, but she didn't need it, because the comfort of words was too pale, just say a few words, you have to be strong, everything will be fine, will life really get better?

Will not.

A knot is a knot, a scar is a scar, it is so naked/naked/naked, it will hurt you unambiguously when it should hurt, and it will never heal just because of a word or two of comfort.

Hang Junbai stared at Gu Qingmei for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the cold fingers on Gu Qingmei's knee.

Gu Qingmei raised her eyes and looked at her, seeing that her eyes moved slightly, her face was hesitant to speak, and she was unable to speak for a long time.

After holding back for a while, Hang Junbai opened and closed his lips and said, "Actually, I am an illegitimate child."

Gu Qingmei froze for a moment, then couldn't help laughing, although this should be a very serious occasion.

but……

"Why do we suddenly reveal secret family affairs to each other?"
