bosom friend

Xin Yu looked at her mobile phone, hesitating whether to call Hao Xingxin, but she was too embarrassed to bother him, after all, he had troubled Hao Xingxin several times, and now Hao Xingxin and Lei Lei reconciled, saying Maybe the two of them are dating, it's not good to disturb other people's relationship, you can't just let others fail because you can't talk... He hesitated until Qingshui Road arrived, but the call still couldn't be made.

After paying and getting out of the car, Xin Yu simply put the phone back in her pocket.Forget it, Hao is happy not to torment.Qiao Pingyi is also an adult, and he can handle his emotional problems by himself, so there is no need to worry about it. Now that they are separated, he should not take too much care of his affairs, at least not beyond the boundaries of friends.

But what are the boundaries of a friend?Xin Yu began to recall what kind of relationship he had with Qiao Pingyi before, it was probably similar to "you go, I won't see you off, you come, no matter how windy or rainy, I will pick you up"?

No, this is not normal... It's not abnormal, it's because my mood has not yet returned to the state of a friend, so no matter what, my suspicion has crossed the line.

Xin Yu thought silently, and unconsciously returned to the gate of his "hometown". For a moment, yesterday reappeared, as if he had always lived here, and these few months were actually a dream...

The old house was unoccupied for a while, and Xin Yu didn't come to clean it often, so the furniture was covered with dust. He turned on the music app on his phone, turned up the volume, and then started cleaning amidst the sound of music. sanitation.

About an hour later, the music was suddenly interrupted, and a call came in. Xin Yu went to check and found that it was Qiao Pingyi calling again. He was a little surprised, hesitated for a while, and still answered it. He always has to face this person, "Little Qiao."

Qiao Ping said together: "Where are you? Let's talk face to face, shall we?"

Xin Yu hesitated, Qiao Ping couldn't be angry but wanted to fight with him, right?He is not in the mood to fight now, he has no fighting spirit, the breakup seems to have taken away all his emotions and energy, and now he feels tired even after cleaning, the kind of tiredness that even the soul is weak, he is really not in the mood No energy to deal with an angry Qiao Pingyi.

Seeing Xin Yu's silence, Qiao Ping asked vigilantly, "Have you already left Beizhou?!"

"..." Xin Yu was quite worried that Qiao Ping would rush over as soon as he found out that he was on Qingshui Road, so he didn't answer, and just said, "It's the same on the phone. Tell me, I'll listen."

This person is like this, he will never be tepid, even if he breaks up.Qiao Pingyi really wanted to get angry, but he held back, "Xiaoyu, Zhuang Yang and I really have nothing to do, I don't like him."

Xin Yu still said, "I believe in you."

"..." Qiao Ping took a deep breath, and said again, "Do you think I neglected my work because of him? No, I didn't ignore my work. I went to the company a few days ago, and they didn't care about work. Will call and ask me."

Xin Yu said: "Well, that's good. For such a big project, with the hard work of so many people, you should pay more attention to it."

Qiao Pingyi finally found an entry point, and immediately said: "I will go to work in the company tomorrow, no, I will go now! Don't be angry, okay?"

"..." Xin Yu said, "You can handle the work yourself. Xiao Qiao...I'm not angry. It's not because I said I wanted to break up because I was angry. I have seriously considered it. I don't think we are suitable to be lovers. Specifically, I am not suitable to be someone else's lover. You also said that I am asexual. In love, I always do inappropriate things. How happy you were before, but after being with me I'm getting less and less happy... Also, I'm not used to being in love, it's too restrictive for me."

Qiao Ping said together: "Restrain? Do you think I hinder you? I will try not to hinder you in the future, okay?"

If it had been yesterday, these words would have angered Xin Yu again, as if he was indifferent, selfish, and caring only for himself and completely ignoring others... But today, he is not angry anymore, and he can even make a little joke, "Little Qiao, did I say you 'only think about yourself' before you bear the grudge? I apologize to you, I said the wrong thing."

Qiao Ping, who was suppressing his anger, was confused by Xin Yu's attitude, he said blankly, "It's okay..."

Xin Yu continued: "But you are right. I don't like others to hinder me, and I don't like to hinder others. People who are afraid of trouble are like this. Now, I think we hinder each other and become a mess. Let's step back and untie all the knots, so that it will be convenient for everyone to go on their own way."

Qiao Pingyi was not as calm as Xin Yu, "Why do we go our separate ways?! When I broke up with you before, you said 'There are conflicts that can be resolved'. Why do you want to break up? I have to agree!"

Xin Yu didn't say anything. At this level, there was really nothing to say.

The two were silent for a long time.

In the end, Qiao Ping swallowed the bad breath, and asked calmly as much as possible: "What did I do wrong, can you tell me? I will correct it, and I won't do it again in the future."

These words made Xin Yu very sad, his vision was a little blurred, now he would rather Qiao Ping drop his phone again and again, and then get angry and stop contacting him...

He took a deep breath slowly and calmed down, "You didn't do anything wrong, Xiao Qiao, many things are not about right or wrong, it's because our thinking is different, it's because our thinking is staggered by a channel, always Don't you feel tired when the bull's head is wrong? You should be very tired too, otherwise, you wouldn't always go to play with Zhuang Yang - he makes you feel relaxed, and I have become your burden .”

Qiao Ping became anxious, "I said I don't like him!"

Xin Yu said calmly: "I know. Like your exes, if he pesters you for a few more months, you will want to break up with him."

"..." Qiao Ping was speechless, he was indeed getting more and more annoying to Zhuang Yang.

When others like him and worship him, he enjoys it; if someone wants to covet him and control him, then he refuses.

When Zhuang Yang purely devoted himself to him, he was quite touched. After all, Zhuang Yang was the "child" he had known for many years. This child had looked up to him eagerly for so many years, and now he would risk his life to save him. Anyone would be moved.

But now that Zhuang Yang started to ask for a response, he became impatient, and felt embarrassed when he wanted to deal with it, because firstly, this child had a good relationship with him all these years, and secondly, this child had just saved him, so he was thinking A proper way to solve this matter.

He didn't really want to talk about it with Xin Yu, who would want to expose his bad side to the people he cared about?But now he knows, Xin Yu understands him very clearly... This also means that even if he wants to explain, there is no need to explain.

He lost his last chance.After a long silence, he said, "Do we have to break up?"

Xin Yu said: "Yes, I am serious when I say we want to be together, and I am serious when we say that we want to separate. I have really thought about it clearly, we should separate, and I am not deliberately finding fault with you - I will not do that do, at any time."

"...I would rather you do this." Qiao Ping said in a low voice, "I see, you let me think about it."

"Yeah." This time, Xin Yu had seen Qiao Pingyi's endurance, and he didn't make a decision immediately under the anger, which was rare.

After that, Xin Yu continued to clean. After cleaning, he took a shower, made the bed, and went to bed... He was really tired, as if he could sleep for a long time.

The next day, he was woken up by the vibrating sound of his mobile phone. For a while, he didn't know where he was. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows. After a while, he came back to his senses, oh, it was in his "hometown" .He picked up the phone and saw that it was from Qiao Ping. He picked it up, "Little Qiao?"

Qiao Ping said together: "Are you sleeping? Did I wake you up?"

"It's okay, what time is it?"

"Ten twenty-six."

Xin Yu reacted for a while before realizing that it was already the next day, and she slept for a long time, but it felt like she had only slept for a while. "What's up?"

"..." Qiao Ping said together, "No matter what, we are all friends, right?"

Um?Xin Yu quickly realized that Qiao Ping was talking about breaking up, and he replied, "Yes."

"It's still the same as before, isn't it?"

"Ah."

Qiao Ping said together: "Xiao Yu, you always mean what you say."

"..." Xin Yu didn't know why Qiao Pingyi emphasized this point, he said cautiously, "I will try my best to keep my word."

Qiao Ping said together: "As long as you don't challenge your endurance?"

Xin Yu laughed.

Qiao Ping said together: "Where are you now? Can you ask this question?"

Xin Yu thought for a moment, then said vaguely, "My cousin is getting married, I want to go home."

"Which one? The one with the student's head cut off? Or the one with the coquettish voice?" Xin Yu only had two cousins, and Qiao Ping had met them all back then.

"She speaks delicately. She doesn't speak very delicately, she just has a nasal sound."

"Okay. So when are you coming back?"

"I can't tell now."

"Oh." Qiao Pingyi didn't get to the bottom of it, "I'm fine, you go to eat first."

"alright, bye."

Xin Yu was hungry, but the kitchen was empty, and he didn’t want to go to the supermarket or vegetable market, so he ordered takeaway. After ordering, he stared blankly, then got out of bed and turned on the computer to start surfing the Internet—fortunately, the Internet fee was It takes one year at a time, otherwise it will be troublesome if the network is disconnected.

He opened the chat software and found that there were a lot of messages.He first read Sheng Xia's message, and as he expected, it was urging him to write Four Travels.Don’t blame them for urging him. It’s because he’s writing more and more slowly now. He used to be able to post a whole story at a time, but now he has to post a section in several sections, and only post one section every half a month. It’s not intentional. Because he only wrote so much.

Liang Wei also left a message for him, which was a follow-up to asking him about Hou Wei.

Xin Yu replied: He was sent to a mental hospital for treatment.

Liang Wei: Oh.Psychological intervention was overdue for him.

Xin Yu: Yes.Let me ask you something, do you have anyone who came to you for counseling because of a broken relationship?

Liang Wei: Yes.
