be late

It was also a rainy night when she broke up with her for the first time.

"Come closer, your clothes are all wet."

Shu Yubai said.

A night of heavy rain.

The road is uneven, there are large and small puddles, the night is pitch black, one or two street lamps light up dimly, and the heavy rain forms white lines under the street lamps, brushing down.

The two rented a house close to the studio.

Nan Xue held an umbrella.

The back of the white hand on the umbrella bone is slightly wet.

She hugged Shu Yubai's waist, and the two of them got into the alley of Heibu Longdong.

At that time, Nan Xue got into a fight with her father, moved out of the house, and lived with Shu Yubai, using some of her previous savings and a few small properties to get busy with starting a business.

Nan Xue is much busier than before.

But they agreed that they would go out on dates a few times a week, spend at least a few hours with each other - and even made a series of strict plans for each other's careers.

Nan Xue would even spur her on.

Everything seems to be going well.

Shu Yubai has never been able to understand: Nan Xue seems to always find time to stay with her, even though Shu Yubai can't figure out how she allocates her time.

Shu Yubai was slow.

Talk slowly and do things slowly.

"It's so cold."

Shu Yubai held her arm, and his whole body was next to her.

As if shrinking into her arms.

"The shoes are soaked."

she murmured.

"Come closer."

Nan Xue lowered her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Sister, I'll take you back first, later...I have something to do."

They were standing under the eaves, the rain was pouring down, it was time for Shu Yubai to go upstairs.

It's normal for her to be busy.

In the past, Shu Yubai's father was also very busy. She knew about the affairs of the business field and didn't suspect anything, but felt distressed.

Nan Xue got busy and became quieter day by day. She seemed to be thinking about problems all the time and said very little, but Shu Yubai didn't change much. In her eyes, whatever Nan Xue had become was still the same her.

"It's past ten o'clock at night."

Shu Yubai said in surprise, "What else is there?"

"At work, it will be fine in a while."

she says.

"what?"

Shu Yubai didn't know that she was so busy: "Didn't you say before that it went well?"

Nan Xue didn't say anything.

"Sister, I want to hug you."

With a smile in Nan Xue's eyes, she opened her arms and approached.

Standing under the flickering light like fireflies, the two embraced each other. After hugging for a while, Nan Xue lowered her head, pressed her lips to hers, and kissed tenderly on a rainy night.

"Holding you is so comfortable."

Nan Xue whispered in her ear, "I really want to hold you for a while longer."

Shu Yubai hooked her slender waist, buried his chin on her shoulder, kissed her side face and earlobe, and said softly: "Then come back early, I'll wait for you."

"it is good."

Nan Xue leaned closer and said, "Warm me up."

Shu Yubai went upstairs with a chuckle and returned to the room.

She set up a drawing board in the bedroom to draw, dipped the tip of the pen in some paint and dabbed lightly, and painted on. On the drawing paper was the back of a girl, which was very blurry.

The light was always on and never extinguished. Shu Yubai waited and waited, but never thought that after painting all night, Nan Xue didn't come back.

She got a call from the hospital the next day.

"Excuse me, is it Nanxue's family?"

"She fainted."

When Shu Yubai rushed over, there was a frail girl on the hospital bed wearing a ventilator, her eyes were still closed, and her black hair was spread out on the snow-white pillow, as if she was still asleep.

She walked over and pinched Nan Xue's fingertips.

Warm and soft to the touch.

"She's not in good shape."

The doctor said: "It is recommended to stay up less late, no matter how busy you are at work, your life is not important."

The doctor pushed his glasses, handed over the medical records, and said, "Patient's family should pay more attention. There was a case of sudden death in the news a few days ago. The body is more important than anything else."

"Don't stress too much."

The doctor shook his head and said with emotion: "The young people nowadays are all working too hard."

"Okay okay."

Shu Yubai held the medical records and medical certificates and said, "Thank you."

She sat on the edge of the bed, looked at her sleeping face, propped her head up, and a thought suddenly popped up in her mind: ——she didn't need to do this before.

She used to know that... nothing to worry about.

Why do you have to go through this?

Shu Yubai sighed softly, got up, and was about to go to the fruit supermarket outside to buy some pears, but she bumped into a man at the entrance of the hospital.

Nan Xue's father.

He was also old, with gray temples, wrapped in a thick gray coat, stood there hesitating, and hurried to the front desk to find the doctor in charge of Nanxue.The doctor stood with him in the aisle, and when the doctor said something, he frowned and nodded.

He turned around following the doctor and saw Shu Yubai.

"uncle."

Shu Yubai called him.

Father Nan glanced at her from a distance, but did not agree.

He walked to the ward, hesitated for a moment, didn't go in, turned his head and asked the doctor: "How long will it take to wake up?"

"Half an hour."

The doctor looked at his watch.

Father Nan was sitting by the bed watching her, with half a cigarette on his fingertips, which was slowly burning. After watching for a while, Nan Xue's eyelashes twitched, and he immediately stood up as if startled, and turned to go out.

"You...don't stay for a while?"

Shu Yubai leaned against the door and asked.

Nan's father glanced at her with scrutiny, but still didn't speak, Nan Xue's finger moved on the bed, Nan Mingzhuo saw it, and quickly turned and left the door without saying a word.

A cigarette butt was left on the bedside table.

Nan Xue woke up slowly, glanced at her, frowned, and asked, "Is my dad here?"

"what?"

Shu Yubai sat beside her, paused, and said, "He has come to see you, and he has been there for...a long time."

"What about others?"

Nan Xue coughed lightly, her cheeks were pale, and she looked out the door.

The aisle was clean as if there was no one there.

"gone."

Shu Yubai said softly: "You rest first, I'll buy you some fruit."

Nan Xue lowered her head, and after a while, she looked out of the window, slightly lost in thought.

Shu Yubai walked out of the ward. She leaned against the cold wall, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

Maybe, she was really wrong.

She was wrong.

Shu Yubai thought while walking, how could she be so selfish?

Why did you tease her back then, why did you try to chase her, why did you make it like this.

If I could do it all over again, maybe...

Maybe she also wants to keep her distance.

Nan Xue was discharged from the hospital.

The two of them seemed to be the same as before. Nan Xue became busy, while Shu Yubai began to take orders and sell paintings. After the National Exhibition Gold Award, the price of her paintings was much higher. She even occasionally dreamed that one day, Nan Xue needed Sometimes, she can also help a little bit.

Nan Xue would occasionally focus in a certain direction.

Shu Yubai knew that it had been a long, long time since she left home and chose to stay with her father.

Shu Yubai thought:

Does it have to be like this?

There's no... better way?

She didn't know if Nan Mingzhuo objected because of her gender or something else.If one day, she is no longer so unknown, and she can become as famous as Nan Xue's uncle, wouldn't it be much easier to come out?

"Nan Xue?"

Shu Yubai called her the next day and said, "Why don't we...separate for a while first."

Her fingertips curled up, feeling cold.

There was a light breath on the other end of the phone, through the microphone, a breath.

For a moment, beep beep.

The phone was hung up.

Shu Yubai called her again, and the phone was turned off.

Her heart beat fast and fast in an instant. She clicked on WeChat and sent her a message. There was a red exclamation mark next to the message, and she realized that she had been blocked. Shu Yubai's eyes went dark, and she almost fainted from fright. Nothing else.

Shu Yubai was in a hurry and went downstairs to find her in the company.

I borrowed someone else's mobile phone and changed the number to call.

After calling for a long time, I finally got through. Shu Yubai was afraid that she would hang up, so the first thing he said was: "I'm downstairs...I'm sorry, can you come down?"

Shu Yubai squatted in the cool wind and waited for her.

A figure appeared at the door, with short black hair, tightly wrapped in a coat, and two slender legs in the cold wind, squinting slightly at her, pursed rosy lips, and said nothing.

Shu Yubai stood up.

There were not many people at night, Nan Xue looked at her and walked over step by step.

Shu Yubai went to hug her.

Nan Xue's teardrops fell down like a broken thread, and asked, "You don't like me anymore?"

Shu Yubai went to wipe her tears and took the man into the car. The two got into the car. Nan Xue still had tears on her cheeks. She lowered her head and said, "Sister, do you know?"

"what do you know?"

Shu Yubai raised her chin to look at her.

Nan Xue burst into tears, she said: "I lied to you, I paid for it, it didn't go well at all, don't you want me anymore..."

"You want to break up..."

There were tears on her eyelashes.

Shu Yubai was so distressed that he couldn't speak - why is she like this?How could she think so?Is it because she doesn't feel safe enough?

"sorry."

Shu Yubai hugged her, kissed her hair, forehead, eyebrows, kissed her lips, and said softly: "Baby."

"I won't mention it again."

"Don't break up, don't break up..."

Shu Yubai said softly in her ear: "I'm sorry, I was wrong... I said I would never want you."

It rained a lot that night, and the rain dripped crookedly along the glass of the car, and the lights of the street lamps shone over. They kissed inseparably in the car, and the temperature rose for a while, as if they had blended together.

"Together?"

asked the man with the umbrella.

The road leading to the bottom of the mountain cannot be seen clearly in the misty rain, and the rain tonight is sudden.

Shu Yubai glanced sideways at her under the black umbrella, his slender eyelashes trembled, and he quickly looked away.

An outline remained in my mind.

She has a small snow-white face, black hair pinned up around her ears, her profile is thin and white, her lips are rosy and full, just like before.

There is an extra gold earring on the earlobe.

The starry sky blue skirt was blown up by the night wind, making it as smooth as silk.

A white coat was draped over her shoulders, and she squeezed her fingers together, but her clear eyes were so pale that people couldn't understand her attitude.

"it is good."

Shu Yubai lowered his head, his soft hair was scattered on his shoulders, and asked, "Where do you live? Are you going by the way?"

Nan Xue lowered her porcelain-white chin, shook her head, and said, "I live here, so it's not on my way."

She glanced at Shi Chu, her expression was unclear, she looked away again, and said softly to Shu Yubai, "I'll take you back."

"thanks."

Shu Yubai's fingertips tightened.

"And me?"

Shi Chu stood aside in embarrassment, and explained to Nan Xue: "I'm with her... that, can you give me a gift too?"

Nan Xue didn't answer. After a while, a car stopped on the side of the road. The driver got down with an umbrella and looked at them silently.

Nan Xue touched Shu Yubai's shoulder lightly with her fingertips, signaling her to follow along, Shu Yubai followed her blankly, the wind and the moisture from the rain messed up her shoulder-length short hair and dark blue skirt.

She shrank back, her cheeks were slightly hot, and the slight touch on her shoulder seemed to have stopped.

A little cool.

The umbrella was propped on top of her head, and Nan Xue stood there, looking at her.

Shu Yubai got into the car shortly, and just now he stuck out the eaves, and accidentally got wet in the rain. The rainwater was all over his white and tender neck, and it slid down along his black hair, and fell into a secluded ravine.

"Then, I'm going up too."

Shichu asked.

Nan Xue supported Shi Chu again, and sent her up as well.

"Thank you."

Shi Chu coughed lightly and asked, "Are you coming up too?"

Nan Xue was speechless.

Shu Yubai glanced out the window, the man didn't get in the car, so she stood in the rain with an umbrella.

Bean-sized raindrops hit the umbrella cloth, flew down, and were illuminated by the lights, shining brightly.A gust of cold wind blew, she took off the white coat on her shoulders, and the light V skirt shone with silk.

There is a little gully under the cold white collarbone, white and soft.

The starry sky blue skirt draped smooth and thin white long legs, and the rain dripped down the calves and ankles.

red lips.

Cool white skin.

black hair.

As they looked at each other, she felt palpitations.

But the next second, the car drove away, and Nan Xue watched them quietly in the rain.
