be late

Nanxue caught a cold, so Aunt Zhang tried various methods to treat her. After taking the medicine, Shu Yubai fed her fruit, and Aunt Zhang went upstairs to get her a pot of hot water, sprinkled with shredded ginger Son, stand upstairs and ask Nan Xue to soak her feet.

"Xiao Nan?"

Aunt Zhang said upstairs, "Come on, soak your feet in hot water and sweat a little, the fever will go away quickly."

Shu Yubai fed her the last piece of kiwi fruit. After Nan Xue finished eating, she reluctantly looked at the small plate. There was only juice left in it. She glanced at Shu Yubai again. Go upstairs alone.

Shu Yubai took the dishes to the kitchen to wash, washed the fruit knife and the dishes, put them away, and when he went back, he saw the phone screen on the coffee table light up, and You Fu sent her a message.

You Fu asked Shu Yubai:

"You and Nan Xue mentioned breaking up three times?"

"God."

Shu Yubai was taken aback, and replied: "Senior sister, how do you know?"

You Fu: "I heard what people said."

Shu Yubai: "Who?"

You Fu: "Thousands."

You Fu explained: "She is my former classmate."

Shu Yubai: "Oh."

You Fu was puzzled, and asked again: "Why? Don't you like her very much?"

Shu Yubai sighed, and slowly tapped on the screen: "It's hard to explain."

Shu Yubai: "At that time, her father was sick."

Shu Yubai: "I don't want to affect his mood."

You Fu didn't ask any more questions.

About to guess the cause and effect.

Shu Yubai was leaning on the sofa, resting with her eyes closed, many fragmented images flashed through her mind quickly, and she couldn't help recalling their second breakup.

That day, Nan Xue was still at the company, and Shu Yubai went home first.

At dusk in early spring, a person was standing under the corridor of the old community. When Shu Yubai came home, he paused and subtly stopped. A middle-aged man with gray hair in his later years was standing downstairs. Under the graceful sycamore tree, people are as thin as the trunk.

Countless piles of fallen leaves were blown up by the wind and fell again.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man turned his face, it was Nan Xue's father.

He stood under the tree with his hands behind his back, wearing a gray jacket, plain and worn, the man didn't speak, he looked at his eyes flashing tiredness, and there was something else.

lifeless.

For some reason, this word came to mind.

Shu Yubai's heart was flustered, she tightened her fingertips lightly, walked over, and greeted with a smile: "Uncle?"

Nan Xue's father found Shu Yubai and said, I have been diagnosed with cancer.

Shu Yubai's feet went limp at once, and she almost fell, her head was buzzing, she couldn't recover for a while, and she suspected it was an auditory hallucination, so she had to ask again: "What did you say?"

Father Nan said, "It's lung cancer."

"Early stage, maybe it can be cured, don't tell Nan Xue yet."

He bowed his head and sighed, the gray hair on his temples was a bit bleak in the evening, Nan Xue's father was already old and sick.

Shu Yubai looked at him silently.

She was estranged from her father since she was a child, grew up, and her parents divorced. She has always lacked experience in dealing with such people.Shu Yubai was suddenly at a loss, a surge of sadness welled up in his heart, and his eyes were moist for a moment.

She shrank her fingertips into her palm, and didn't know where to start.

No, he said, early days.

——Maybe it will be good?

Nan Mingzhuo sighed and said, "You and Xiao Nan, how about we be friends?"

"Uncle has just one wish."

"Xiao Nan can be like a normal little girl and step into a normal life sooner, so my uncle can rest assured."

"We can't hang around like this anymore."

He sighed and said, "Uncle, I hope you don't continue, it's too... abnormal, women and women, what are you talking about? Isn't it good for you to be friends?"

Shu Yubai nodded nana: "Okay."

"I'll go... talk to her."

Nan Mingzhuo glanced at her in the quiet courtyard surrounded by twilight, then turned and left.

Shu Yubai stood where he was, watching him go away.

She couldn't remember what month it was, or what day of the week it was, but the moment the man's gray hair was eclipsed inch by inch by the falling sun, she watched it from a distance for a long time.So much so that the picture keeps reappearing, over and over again.

It's like seeing a life and the setting sun melt away inch by inch.

When Nan Xue came home, Shu Yubai was washing dishes in the cramped small kitchen. Nan Xue gently hugged her waist from behind, blew in her ear, and called her affectionately: "Sister."

The tip of the short hair was a little cold, and it touched Shu Yubai's warm cheeks. She turned around, with a smile in her eyes, and the setting sun shone through the small dark window, casting a layer of soft light on her cheeks. .

His expression was blurred, and he couldn't see clearly.

There was silence, no one spoke.

Shu Yubai washed his hands under the tap, turned around and hugged her waist, kissed her side face, and said, "Nan Xue, let's separate for a while, okay?"

Nan Xue was startled, froze, and asked:

"Separate first?"

"What do you mean?"

"You broke up with me again?"

Shu Yubai panicked immediately, hugged her waist and explained softly, "No... it's just being friends, not breaking up. Even if I don't kiss you anymore, you can't kiss me either."

Nan Xue frowned, her clear eyes were blank: "What do you mean?"

"Just for a while, okay?"

Seeing that Nan Xue didn't answer, Shu Yubai whispered in her ear again:

"Just separated for a short while, we are still together as before, just as friends."

"Just for a while?"

Nan Xue looked at her quietly.

"Ah."

"Nothing else?"

Nan Xue asked again.

"No."

Shu Yubai said: "At least for this period of time, okay? Be friends first. After this period of time, you can come here however you want."

Nan Xue frowned and asked her, "Why?"

Shu Yubai was silent for a while, then sighed softly: "Do you miss your father?"

Nan Xue stared at her quietly, her pupils dilated slowly, then narrowed again, she was stunned for a while, then lowered her head, a gust of breeze blew from the window, brushing up the ends of her hair around her porcelain-white chin.

She seemed to understand, and asked, "Sister, are you afraid that I will miss my father?"

Shu Yubai was taken aback, and hummed lightly.

"Nan Xue."

Shu Yubai looked at her seriously, his eyes were as gentle as ever, but I don't know if it was an illusion, there seemed to be a little sadness, moist for a moment, but quickly disappeared.

She lowered her eyes and said, "Go back and see your father."

Nan Xue nodded and said, "Okay."

Nan Xue hugged her from behind, lowered her eyelashes, kissed her forehead, and asked, "How long have we been apart?"

Shu Yubai was startled, then shook his head lightly: "I don't know."

Nan Xue didn't understand, Shu Yubai was afraid that she would see something, so he went to hug her, smiled, and said softly: "It's just a game, let's see who can bear it longer."

Nan Xue glanced at her and said softly, "It must be me."

Shu Yubai smiled but said nothing.

Nan Xue finally came home.

Shu Yubai told her that if her father asked, he would tell her that the two of them had broken up and were now friends, and Nan Xue would do the same.

They still meet every week, and Nan Xue occasionally asks her why her father always coughs. She has tried many methods, but none of them can be cured.

Shu Yubai could only smile and said, this is the case with colds and coughs, and coughs are the most difficult to treat.

Nan Xue also believed it.

In addition, her own business has improved a lot.

Less stumbling.

Everything seems to be going well.

It's a pity that the second "breakup" didn't take long.

Because I can't help it.

"Sister, I want to kiss you, okay?"

The two were walking on a mountain road next to the house, Nan Xue hooked her finger and asked softly.

Shu Yubai: "..."

She looked back, pulled Nan Xue to the corner without saying a word, and looked back again, no one was there.

In the alley, they were close, a silver moon hung quietly in the sky, there were unknown insects chirping at the bottom of the deep grass, the quiet and soft night, the breath was light.

The wind was very light, and the ends of my hair were brushed, a little itchy.

Shu Yubai felt uncomfortable for a moment, her cheeks were slightly hot, she pointed at her cheek half in connivance, half expectantly, and said, "Don't you want to kiss me?"

"Okay, come on."

She points to the face.

Only face kisses?

Nan Xue looked at her dissatisfied, and kissed her gently on the cheek as if compromising.

It is very light, with a light fragrance like a girl, like a small white jasmine flower, the fragrance fills the tip of the nose, and the numbness spreads along the place where the soft lips touched.

Just haven't touched it for a week.

Kiss, unexpectedly a little soft.

Shu Yubai's cheeks were slightly hot, he lowered his head, slowed down, and whispered, "I... want to kiss you too."

"it is good."

Nan Xue's eyes lit up, and she quickly agreed.

Shu Yubai hooked the girl's neck, raised his eyes, and kissed her face.

The petal-like soft touch, very pink, without any blemishes, the warm and soft touch is like a ball of sweet cotton candy, Shu Yubai tongue lightly licked a small mouthful.

The wet and soft touch is like a small snake.

Nan Xue couldn't help it for a moment, hugged her, kissed her red lips, and started kissing again.

Deep, intertwined.

passionate kiss.

The two rubbed against each other in the alley, and quickly lost their helmets and armor. Nan Xue followed her back to their original "home", entered the bedroom, and kissed passionately again.I don't know how long it took, but there was silence and darkness outside.

When the two got up from the bed covered in sweat, they suddenly realized:

The second time they agreed to "separate", it turned out to be nothing.

,

Shu Yubai withdrew his long thoughts.

She got up and walked up the wooden spiral stairs step by step. On the third floor, the door of Nanxue's bedroom was open, and there was the sound of water. The person seemed to be still soaking her feet in hot water.

Shu Yubai walked to the door of the bedroom, Nan Xue was sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyelashes lowered, her snow-white feet were hanging on the edge of the small tub, water was dripping from her feet, scalded by hot water, revealing powder.

Her eyes searched around, looking for a towel, Shu Yubai was afraid that she would catch a cold again, so he hurriedly said: "Put your feet back, I'll get you a towel."

Nan Xue put it back again.

Shu Yubai took down a dark towel from the place where it was drying on the window sill, and asked, "Is it this one?" :"lift it up."

——Is this to wipe her feet?

Nan Xue was taken aback, her cheeks felt a little hot for some reason.

She raised her foot obediently, Shu Yubai wrapped the towel on it, gently pressed it with her soft palm to absorb water, and said, "The other one."

Nan Xue complied.

The woman's palm pressed against the towel.

It was wiped clean in a short while.

Nan Xue didn't say a word, the tips of her ears were red.

Shu Yubai didn't pay attention, she lifted the blanket and said, "Quick, go in and wrap it up."

Nan Xue: "..."

She rolled into the bed, wrapped it up, exposed a pair of eyes, and looked at Shu Yubai quietly.

Being watched by her, Shu Yubai gradually became uncomfortable, and slowly began to blush: "What are you looking at me for?"

Nan Xue asked quietly: "Aren't you annoying me?"

Shu Yubai: "What?"

She was at a loss and asked inexplicably, "Why do I bother you?"

Nan Xue: "..."

She watched Shu Yubai's expression carefully, for fear of missing any clues, but her expression was blank, as if she was very puzzled by her question.

Why doesn't she seem to remember at all?

Is it because it's been too long, three years have passed, and I can't remember posting when I broke up?

Or, could it be, it's really not her.

Just as this thought came to a head, it immediately grew rapidly, wrapping around the heart like vines.

Something seems to be recovering gradually.

Nan Xue moved under the blanket and said, "It's so cold."

After speaking, she looked at Shu Yubai.

Shu Yubai blinked and asked, "I'll get you a cup of hot water, okay?"

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked out of the bedroom door. After a while, there was a rattling sound from the stairwell. She went upstairs, holding a white porcelain cup, and put it lightly on the bedside table. Nan Xue glanced, yes, It's ginger soup again.

"Have a drink."

Shu Yubai said patiently.

Nan Xue frowned, was forced to sit up, finished drinking the ginger soup, and lay down again.

"Is it still cold?"

Shu Yubai asked softly.

Nan Xue nodded and said, "It's cold."

She didn't lie, her feet were already cold, and she couldn't seem to warm them up.

It's getting late.

Shu Yubai glanced at the time and thought, Nan Xue is going to sleep, should she leave?

Turning around, the man under the blanket looked at her quietly.

His eyes were clear and unblinking.

Shu Yubai asked Nan Xue again: "Where is it cold?"

Nan Xue: "The lower legs are all ice."

Shu Yubai sat down on the edge of the bed, she gently lifted half of the quilt, her warm fingers touched her ankles under the quilt, indeed, it was very cold.When it's cold here, it's damp and cold, and the heater is not turned on, so my feet are always cold when I sleep.

"I'll keep you warm, okay?"

Shu Yubai's cheeks were slightly hot, and he asked tentatively.

Nan Xue nodded.

She closed her eyes in a daze, and in the next second, she felt that her feet touched something warm and soft, as if it was alive, very fresh.

She lifted her eyelashes suddenly.

Shu Yubai sat on the head of the bed, put her feet into her clothes, and gently pressed against Bai Bai's soft belly.
