Forced to make a fake show with the president

In the car, Tan Yuqing sat in the co-pilot's seat, resting his head on the glass window, looking at the scenery outside.

"How about abroad?" Pei Xi suddenly asked.

"Well, I didn't get used to it at first, but now I feel okay." After Tan Yuqing finished speaking, she sneaked a glance at Pei Xi, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing that her expression was as usual.

For a moment just now, she thought that Pei Xi had come to Xingshi to question her.

After all, four months ago, she suddenly left without saying goodbye, not only without warning, but even changed her mobile phone number privately.Thinking about it now, she was really a beast back then.

"How about you, how is the country?"

Tan Yuqing asked casually, but Pei Xi answered seriously, staring at Tan Yuqing with a pair of black eyes without blinking, as if wanting to convey the words to the depths of her soul: "I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, I'm bothered. One thing after another, but at this juncture, you are not here."

The emotion in her eyes was too strong, Tan Yuqing didn't dare to look carefully, she turned her eyes away in a panic, it happened to be a green light, she declined and said: "Look at the road, it's time to go."

A look of disappointment flashed in Pei Xi's eyes, and he withdrew his gaze: "Yes."

Along the way, both of them were absent-minded and didn't speak again, and the atmosphere seemed a little heavy.

The car drove into Shangyungang, and a yellow-brown garbage truck came out of the garbage station. Looking at the familiar scenery, Tan Yuqing suddenly remembered the previous scene.

"Now, look at that car."

"Huh?" Pei Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, as if asking what to do next.

Tan Yuqing looked at the car with nostalgia, but his eyes traveled through time and space, looking at the not-too-distant past.

"Do you remember last Christmas Eve?"

On December 24th, Tan Yuqing gave Pei Xi a peace fruit and hid a beautiful earring in it.

It's a pity that Pei Xi disliked the cold weather, so he threw away the apple without even opening the package while she was not paying attention.

That earring also fell into the garbage bin as it should.

It seemed that recalling the past, Pei Xi's cold face was a little more embarrassed.In contrast, Tan Yuqing found it interesting and nostalgic, and even felt like laughing.

"You actually threw away the apple that day." Tan Yuqing covered her lips and chuckled, "Do you know that I was sad all night?"

Although she went back the next day with no future in sight, she can still recall a bit of that sour and sad feeling.

Pei Xi was a little embarrassed by what she said, so she tightened the steering wheel and apologized: "I'm sorry."

In fact, that night, Pei Xi was also in a bad mood, constantly entangled in self-blame and guilt, she waited for Tan Yuqing in the living room all night.It's a pity that I couldn't wait until dawn, and instead froze myself and caught a cold.

Really embarrassing.

"It's okay." Tan Yuqing waved his hand, and suddenly thought of something, and glanced at Pei Xi's earlobe.

There, a beautiful sapphire reflected a dim light in the darkness.Faint, but not to be ignored.

Tan Yuqing held her breath slightly, squeezed her hands tightly, and her heart was immersed in this surprise and missed a beat.

"So you still have it."

Pei Xi subconsciously reached out to touch the earrings, and the cool temperature calmed her complicated mood a lot: "Well, I always wear them."

When he said this, Pei Xi's eyes softened, and the brows were full of warmth.Tan Yuqing stared blankly, as if returning to the time of passionate love for a moment.

Warm and happy.

"Sure enough, I can't escape." Tan Yuqing whispered unconsciously.

"What?" Pei Xi asked.

"It's okay." Tan Yuqing lowered her head, hiding the unsuppressed smile at the corner of her mouth in the deep night.

I can't escape, since I saw you for the first time, I can no longer tolerate other people in my heart, and I am in prison.

"Where is the box?"

Walking into the familiar villa, Pei Xi habitually changed into black panda slippers, and then conveniently placed another pair of white rabbit ear slippers in front of Tan Yuqing.

"Ah..." Tan Yuqing was taken aback by her non-estranged movements, and felt a little embarrassed and shy looking at the two pairs of couple slippers.

"Huh? Where do you put the box?" Seeing her distracted, Pei Xi moved closer, her jet-black hair brushed lightly, Tan Yuqing was startled suddenly, and quickly pulled away.

"Ah, the box, just put the box in the living room, there is nothing urgent in it..."

After finishing speaking in a hurry, Tan Yuqing's heart was still beating violently, restless and nervous.

"Your face...is a little red," Pei Xi subconsciously reached out to touch it, "Is there something uncomfortable?"

Tan Yuqing dodged in a panic, "No, it's just... well, I'm a little tired! Yes, I'm a little tired!"

It is normal to be tired after more than ten hours of flight.But in contrast, it is more of the fatigue caused by the rapid heartbeat and mental tension.

"That's it." Pei Xi backed away, pulled the box inside, and said nonchalantly, "Where do you sleep today?"

Before the other party could answer, she added: "I cleaned up your room without authorization, and took the bed and quilt to wash, but it hasn't been done yet."

In fact, that was more than two months ago.Now all the beds, bedding and the like are neatly placed in closets, storage boxes and other places.

"Ah..." Tan Yuqing frowned, a little distressed.

If it was normal, she would definitely sleep in the same room with Pei Xi even without asking Pei Xi.

But now a lot of things happen between them, the usual intimacy is no longer as easy as before.

As if she understood her concerns, and seemed to be calculating her painstakingly, Pei Xi voluntarily backed down: "Why don't you sleep in my room, and I'll find something to make do on the sofa for the night."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Yuqing immediately retorted: "How can this work! Your sleep is already poor, how can you sleep well on the sofa?"

Pei Xi waved his hand: "It's okay, you don't have to worry about me. When I was working overtime alone, I even slept on the desk, let alone the sofa."

After speaking, Pei Xi walked to the sofa and cleaned up the sundries on it to make room for the narrow width.

She sat on it, pressed the sofa, turned her head and gave Tan Yuqing a comforting smile: "It's actually not bad, it's quite soft."

Tan Yuqing's eyes were stung by such a pretentious smile, and she suddenly recalled how she "drives away" Pei Xi on New Year's Eve.The guilt in my heart grew a little more.

"Sorry..." Tan Yuqing clenched her hands and bit her lower lip, "Let's sleep together tonight."

Pei Xi opened his eyes slightly, with a sincere smile on his face: "Okay, let's sleep together."

Pei Xi's room is still the same, with minimalist black, white and gray, a large and soft double bed, and a wardrobe and table.Simple and uninspired, like a mass-produced shirt in a factory.

After Tan Yuqing came in, he subconsciously glanced at the trash can at the door, and as expected, he found sleeping pills in it.

Pei Xi's sleep quality is very poor, and she suffers from frequent insomnia. Although she looks energetic during the day, Tan Yuqing knows how tired and brave she is under that nonchalant face.

The initial period of their relationship improved, but after her mother died of illness, Pei Xi's illness rebounded again.

After going abroad, Tan Yuqing thought about this problem many times, but every time she avoided it cruelly.Even though it was impossible, I fantasized that she would be fine.

But now looking at the medicine box in the trash can, the last hope is also shattered.

Pei Xi found that something was wrong with her, and followed her gaze to the trash can, and she understood it for a moment, and felt warm in her heart.

"It's actually not that uncomfortable." Pei Xi smiled, opened the closet, and took out Tan Yuqing's pillow from it, "I'm quite tired from work every day, and I'll take some medicine when I come back. In most cases, it won't take long. sleep."

"Occasionally insomnia, you can be a little lazy the next day, just get used to it."

Pei Xi didn't take it seriously, but the more this happened, the more Tan Yuqing felt guilty.

Some things are not uncomfortable when you are unable to change them, but it is even more embarrassing to have the ability but not willing to change them.

Going abroad was definitely not a matter of will, Tan Yuqing had her own considerations, but now looking at Pei Xi who was being tortured, she suddenly became a little shaken.

"Pei..."

"Do not say."

As soon as Tan Yuqing opened her mouth, Pei Xi interrupted her.

"Promise me not to continue." Pei Xi lowered his head, his body was embarrassed but still upright, as if he was sticking to the last bit of stubbornness.

"I know your heart is soft and your will is easily shaken, but promise me, don't talk about returning to China at this time."

Pei Xi hugged the pillow tightly, and the silver-gray moonlight shone on her body, making her thin figure even more precarious.The long hair fluttered, as if a light blow would blow away the person in front of him.

"It's true that I'm not having a good time, and I really want you to come back as soon as possible and stay by my side, but... don't pity me." Pei Xi raised his head, his deep eyes made people dare not look directly at him, Tan Yuqing just looked at Look away for a second.

"I...have no pity for you." She quibbled in a low voice.

Pei Xi smiled lightly and did not expose her: "No matter what, since you choose to leave, you must take it seriously. There are still problems between us, whether it is on your side or mine, so a proper separation... maybe Pretty good too."

"I hope you can follow your heart. When you come back again, you must have abandoned your distracting thoughts and come back with your answer."

Tan Yuqing opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say much, but responded quietly.

answer?

Unfortunately, I still don't know where it is.

Tan Yuqing glanced at the medicine box, shook his head and smiled wryly.

Lying on the bed, there was about one person's distance between Tan Yuqing and Pei Xi.This was not deliberately pulled apart by either side, but it was like an unspoken agreement, which was abided by each other, as if this would not disturb the other party.

But this is not the case.

"Can't sleep?" Pei Xi asked softly, listening to the small movements around her.

"Sorry, did I disturb you?" Tan Yuqing flinched instinctively, and pulled a little further away.If just now the distance between the two of them was barely enough for one person to lie down, now that person can lie down comfortably without restraint.

The empty distance made people feel flustered, Pei Xi's eyelids slightly closed, and suddenly she approached, and precisely grasped Tan Yuqing's wrist: "Hate me?"

Tan Yuqing froze for a moment, feeling extremely oppressed by the breath so close at hand, she shook her head again and again: "No, it's just..."

Just because you hate it.

Before the words in her mouth were finished, she was surrounded by Pei Xi, and she almost sighed: "Then get closer, don't be too far away from me. I'm afraid that one day when I turn around, you won't be here again."

Such a straightforward and fragile tone made Tan Yuqing's heart tremble violently, and she wanted to make an oath without hesitation, but when things came to an end, there was only a vague "um".

How unreliable the oath is, she knows from herself.Since you can't guarantee it, don't give others expectations without authorization.

Tan Yuqing felt that there was nothing wrong with what she had done, but her heart still hurt like a thorn.Because she found that Pei Xi didn't trust her, and what's more sad, she didn't trust Pei Xi either.

On the bed, the bodies of the two hug each other tightly, but their hearts are far apart from each other.In other words, it is precisely because the distance between the hearts is too far that they abandon themselves and deceive themselves and hug each other tightly.
