Chapter 65 The Death of the White Swan
Just when Ruan Xiao thought he had gotten rid of Bai Xiyu.
Bai Xiyu raised his voice intentionally from behind: "You don't need to pretend in front of me, you and I both know that Zhou Muye can't possibly like you!"
It was as if a sudden gust of wind blew towards Ruan Xiao from behind, piercing through the emptiest part of his body.
Ruan Xiao abruptly stopped the blade on the spot, his eyes fixed on Zhou Muye who was separated by an ice rink in front of him.
The first thing he could hear was not a negative voice, but a murmur that was so weak that it couldn't be weaker, going away with the wind from the hollow of his body.
Yup……
Ano is such a great person.
how is this possible……
Ruan Xiao subconsciously clenched his palms tightly, his nails pinching the soft flesh, the slight pain made him blink quickly, and immediately regained his senses.
Ruan Xiao pulled the corner of his lower lip in a self-deprecating manner, and when he realized it, he was almost laughed at by himself.
Casually let Bai Xiyu's words mess up his mind, and now he still doubts Zhou Muye's feelings for him. If Zhou Muye knows this, he will definitely turn his back on him.
Ruan Xiaowu calmed down, and after a while, he turned to look at Bai Xiyu.
That delicate little face usually likes to smile, and his expression is always gentle, but at this moment, it is rare to be as cold as ice, and one can even vaguely see the suppressed anger behind him.
Ruan Xiao has such a good personality that he has no temper, but at the moment he is really angry.
He could vaguely feel that if he couldn't use some stronger emotions to support himself, he might be directly defeated by Bai Xiyu's words.
About Zhou Muye not liking him...
"It's up to you whether you like it or not." Ruan Xiao said to Bai Xiyu with a cold voice, "Ah Ye is very good to me, it's enough for me to feel his liking."
Looking at Bai Xiyu's mocking expression, Ruan Xiao suddenly realized that what he said to Bai Xiyu was meaningless and meaningless.
Bai Xiyu did it on purpose, he didn't want to see him well, and didn't think he would.
Ruan Xiao turned back, just wanting to leave quickly.
However, at this moment, Bai Xiyu said: "What does he like about you?"
Ruan Xiao's back visibly stiffened.
There was no sound for a while.
The smile in Bai Xiyu's eyes was even bigger, he slid two steps forward, and quietly approached behind Ruan Xiao.
Ruan Xiao's eyes showed a daze, and he was desperately thinking about what Zhou Muye liked about him, so that he could prove himself by saying it.
A demonic whisper suddenly sounded in my ears:
"Or, what do you have that he likes..."
Ruan Xiao looked forward.
Zhou Muye lowered his eyelashes slightly, his face was expressionless, and when he was not speaking, it was always hard to guess what he was thinking.
There was a flicker of light in the dark eyes, which was too fragile to be vulnerable.
Ruan Xiao opened her red lips, and retorted without thinking, "You don't understand, he likes me..."
When the voice in the ear chuckled, it passed by with a cool breath, and ruthlessly exposed the facts: "Even you don't know what he likes you, and you still blindfold yourself, cover your ears, and imagine that you are loved with..."
"Don't you think it's sad to guard a relationship that you don't even think you deserve? I believe you don't feel well either."
Ruan Xiao frowned, pursed her lips, showing a desperate look, and was about to leave: "I didn't, you lied, I won't talk to you."
However, before sliding out, Bai Xiyu grabbed his wrist from behind and held him tightly to prevent him from leaving.
Ruan Xiao gritted his teeth, for some reason, he couldn't even pull his hand back.
Bai Xiyu's tone became more and more confident, and he said leisurely: "Since you can't see the reality clearly, why don't you let me tell you what's going on."
Ruan Xiao's palms felt cold, because he already had a premonition of how cruel the next words would be, and he couldn't restrain the fear in his heart.
Bai Xiyu uttered each word, his voice whispered behind Ruan Xiao's ear, low and clear: "If you hadn't lied about being pregnant, Zhou Muye would have noticed you?"
Ruan Xiao's face turned pale in an instant.
Zhou Muye said almost exactly the same thing...
Bai Xiyu said: "I'm sure you know how responsible he is. He treats you well only because of his sense of responsibility. I sympathize with him. His feelings for you have to start with a lie. How much truth do you think he likes?" Element?"
Ruan Xiao struggled weakly with his wrist, but was held even tighter by Bai Xiyu.
Bai Xiyu raised his eyes from behind Ruan Xiao's shoulder, looked at the crowd ahead, and said, "You said Zhou Muye likes you, ask yourself, why does he like you? How about... just look at An Qiao..."
As if under a spell, Ruan Xiao's eyes fell on the eye-catching young man among the crowd in front of him.
Blonde hair, green pupils, a face as beautiful as an angel...
At this time, the teammate next to An Qiao rubbed his head, An Qiao glanced at his teammate sideways, then tilted his head, and looked at Zhou Muye who was talking indifferently.
Although the voice in his ear was soft, Ruan Xiao felt that it was sharper than a knife:
"In terms of looks, An Qiao is better looking than you. In terms of strength, An Qiao can take the first place casually, but you... are really embarrassed. In terms of family background, An Qiao's family has a strong influence in Germany. , you may not be able to imagine..."
Ruan Xiao's lips trembled, and he couldn't help but murmur: "I know..."
More than ten years ago, An Qiao's father cooperated with Zhou Muye's father in a real estate project. Such a family must be either rich or expensive.
Bai Xiyu glanced at Ruan Xiao, and said, "That's the person who is worthy of Zhou Muye. Excellent people should be with excellent people."
Only this sentence pierced Ruan Xiao almost instantly, and his eyes instantly turned heavy with pain.
The reason why Ruan Xiao has worked hard for a long time is condensed in Bai Xiyu's words.
Bai Xiyu stabbed all his anxiety and inferiority complex.
At this moment, Zhou Muye, who was in the distance, looked towards this side unintentionally. He didn't know what he saw, but he frowned slightly, then said something to the people on the left and right, walked through the crowd towards the entrance, and stepped on the ice.
Ruan Xiao saw Zhou Muye walking towards him.
Obviously, Bai Xiyu also saw it, but he didn't let go of Ruan Xiao immediately, but stared at Zhou Muye like a poisonous snake, and continued unhurriedly:
"One more thing to remind you, before you, Zhou Muye liked me. I believe more and more that if drunken sex really exists, it's just that he thinks you are me..."
Ahead, Zhou Muye was getting closer and closer, looking towards this side as if probing, his brows and eyes were distant, and his eyes were gradually gloomy.
From Zhou Muye's perspective, he could only see Ruan Xiao's increasingly pale and dazed complexion, with a broken light in his dark eyes, and Bai Xiyu behind him, like a lurking shadow, couldn't see his expression clearly.
At this moment, Bai Xiyu was still saying: "Ruan Xiao, this is why I hate you. You put on a pure and innocent face all day long, but you use some indecent means to enter a world that doesn't belong to you and snatch my position." , use your identity as a weak person to kidnap Zhou Muye, and make him responsible for you..."
Ruan Xiao's chest heaved twice, almost unable to breathe.
"I'm curious, how long are you going to kidnap him?"
After saying the last sentence, Bai Xiyu let go of his hand suddenly, and raised his hand in the air as if it had nothing to do with him. With a gentle smile on his face, he raised his voice and said to Ruan Xiao: "Come on for the grand prix, I am looking forward to your event." Performance."
Almost at the same time as Bai Xiyu let go, Zhou Muye came to a place a few steps away from Ruan Xiao's front, and directly stretched out his hand to pull Ruan Xiao's other wrist, pulling him towards him.
Ruan Xiao seemed to be pulled ashore suddenly from the cold and dark bottom, and rushed towards the warm light, his face was buried tightly in Zhou Muye's chest, he took a sharp breath, and his shrunken shoulders were trembling uncontrollably.
Zhou Muye looked at Ruan Xiao with lowered eyelashes, and said in a low voice, "What did he say to you just now?"
Ruan Xiao still buried his face, shook his head, and tightened his fingers holding Zhou Muye's coat.
But Bai Xiyu smiled and answered for Ruan Xiao: "Just catch up with him."
Then, changing the subject, he said to Zhou Muye: "Muye, long time no see. I heard that your grandfather was hospitalized recently. I brought some supplements from abroad. I will visit him when I have time."
Zhou Muye raised his eyelashes to look at Bai Xiyu, his brows were cold: "Keep it for yourself."
After finishing speaking, he took Ruan Xiao's shoulders and led him away from the ice rink.
Zhou Muye brought Ruan Xiao to the locker room.
Ruan Xiao sat down, lowered his head to loosen the laces of his skates, his little face was lifeless, the corners of his eyes were red, a little damp, with traces of crying.
Zhou Muye leaned back against the locker opposite, looked at Ruan Xiao, his attitude was not bad, and asked again: "What did he say to you?"
Ruan Xiao loosened the lace of one of the skates with a rustle, and lightly pursed the corner of her lips before saying weakly: "He said that I was in a mess when I fell during the competition."
Zhou Muye raised his face slightly, leaned his head against the cabinet door, looked at Ruan Xiao with half-closed eyelashes, and said after a while, "You'd better tell me the truth."
Without looking up, Ruan Xiao loosened the gap between the laces of the other skate, raised one hand and extended three fingers: "Aye, I promise to tell the truth."
Zhou Muye licked his lower lip, stood upright, and said in a slow tone, "Being far away from him tomorrow."
"Yeah." Ruan Xiao still hung his head, nodded, and whispered, "He is good or bad, I don't like him..."
Zhou Muye walked over, reached out and rubbed Ruan Xiao's head, then lifted his pants leg, squatted on one knee, and helped Ruan Xiao change his shoes.
Ruan Xiao quietly glanced at Zhou Muye, and then again.
I couldn't help thinking strangely in my heart.
How could such a nice person like Ah Ye like him.
***
From that night on, Ruan Xiao began to suffer from insomnia.
I woke up groggy the next day, and when I got to the club, I couldn't get up at all.
Coach Yao saw that something was wrong with Ruan Xiao, and wondered if he was sick, and asked him to go to the club's infirmary once, but there was no problem after the examination.
Ruan Xiao thought that the insomnia was just accidental, but on the second and third nights, it was still the same, and the state of training during the day was getting worse and worse, so he had to contact Yunyan in advance to ask her to come a few days later to accept the results of the training.
In addition to the effects of insomnia, because Ruan Xiao has not improved in training these days, his chest feels tight and uncomfortable from time to time, and his heart is always in a mess.
Ruan Xiao also knows that figure skating, a sport that needs years of training to produce results, also requires artistic comprehension, and it is useless to rush.
But the more he knew this was the case, the more anxious Ruan Xiao became.
The Grand Prix is getting closer and closer, and there is not much time left for him.
Going on like this is not an option, Ruan Xiao thought about it, and finally bypassed the team doctor and asked for leave one afternoon to go to the hospital.
The doctor outside didn't know Ruan Xiao's identity, so he prescribed a bottle of tranquilizer according to the conventional treatment method.
When getting the tranquilizer, Ruan Xiao hesitated.
As an athlete, you must not take tranquilizers during the competition. If a urine test finds illegal drugs, it can be said to be a devastating blow to an athlete's career.
Fortunately, there is still some time before the game, as long as it is disabled in time.
Moreover, it is difficult for him to fall asleep now. If this trend continues, he will not be able to survive the Grand Prix.
After thinking about it, Ruan Xiao took the tranquilizer anyway, keeping it from everyone.
Ruan Xiao understands that he needs to be in a good state to polish this show, and after this period of time, he will stop using it and it will not affect the final drug test.
Soon, it was the day when Yunyan came to inspect the results.
Ruan Xiao practiced this hundreds of times.
When Yunyan came, Coach Yao opened a skating room for them alone, without letting anyone watch.
The four-minute free skating program can be long or short, but for Ruan Xiao, it is definitely a long process.
When he finally freezes on the ice, he's panting and his mind is blank.
In the past, when Ruan Xiao was practicing other programs, he could know how he performed after skating.
Only "Black Swan" made him unable to touch the bottom, and he didn't have the slightest feeling, so his heart was always hanging.
After Ruan Xiao adjusted his breath, he stood in the middle of the ice rink and looked at Yunyan who was silent on the sidelines.
But when he saw Yunyan's expression, Ruan Xiao already had a premonition, and his heart sank little by little.
Ruan Xiao whispered: "Teacher Yun..."
Yunyan hasn't even put down her handbag since she entered the door. She looked at Ruan Xiao and said, "Ruan Xiao, think about who you are."
When Yunyan turned around, she said in a low voice: "Stop playing Black Swan, you're wasting the show... Let's use Swan Lake for the grand prix."
Ruan Xiao stood there blankly, watching Yunyan go out. In an instant, anxiety reached an unprecedented peak, like a thermometer exploded, mixed with the sleepiness and depression of these days, Bai Xiyu's sarcasm in the eyes, An Qiao's anxiety in the ice. The beautiful posture when spinning up...
"Whoa!"
The plastic bottle fell to the ground, and the white pills gushed out and scattered all over the floor.
It is the scene of collapse when all the games are lost.
In the dark dressing room, Ruan Xiao stared blankly at the pills on the ground. He paused for a while, then slowly squatted down on the ground, picked up the bottle, picked up the pills on the ground, and picked them up.
Picking up, Ruan Xiao picked up two and stuffed them into his mouth.
Doctors put him on strict schedule and dosage of tranquilizers, but he needed them urgently.
At the door of the locker room, a standing figure disappeared.
Bai Xiyu leaned against the wall, looked at the photo he just took in his phone, and smiled with satisfaction.
The gifted figure skater took drugs before the competition, and whether Canada's championship needs to be re-investigated.
As for the title, he had already thought it out for Ruan Xiao.
***
In the following days, Ruan Xiao picked up the program "Swan Lake" again.
As for "Black Swan", since Yun Yan said there was no way, it meant that he was really not suitable.
However, returning to the rhythm of Swan Lake, Ruan Xiao seemed to lose the agility and briskness before.
For some reason, he became a little blunt, and the jumps he was proud of before began to make mistakes.
Once again, Ruan Xiao fell on the ice when falling on the ice, and his body fell to the sidelines due to inertia, hitting the wall.
He stood up slowly, sat on the sidelines, wrapped his knees around his knees, and couldn't hide the look of loneliness on his small face.
However, at this time, applause broke out from the other side of the ice rink.
Ruan Xiao looked, and saw An Qiao's elegant and neat figure turning faster and faster on the ice, from squatting to changing feet and turning backwards, and finally straightened up with floating feet and lifted the blade backward. The whole process was very stable and smooth. Fluid and natural, it is sure to get the highest grade.
Ruan Xiao sat in the corner, raised one hand, put it to his lips and bit his nails, his eyes were fixed on An Qiao, and the light in his eyes gradually changed from bewilderment to something more complicated and difficult to understand.
Why is An Qiao always in such good condition?so smart?
He's improving every day, he's really good at figure skating.
Why can a person have both outstanding appearance and extraordinary strength, and even his family background is so strong that it is unimaginable...
Ruan Xiao bit his nails till they were mottled, and finally, a voice suddenly came out of his empty heart.
Why, I'm not An Qiao...
Ruan Xiao's heart, which had been exhausted and numb for a long time, suddenly seemed to come alive, and jumped violently, but what gushed out of it was no longer bright red blood, but a thick green, viscous, erosive and slow-moving venom.
Ruan Xiao was very unfamiliar with this feeling, but when he looked at An Qiao, the thick green liquid gurgled down from his eye sockets uncontrollably.
Bai Xiyu's words came to mind again.
Excellent people should be with excellent people.
I really want to replace An Qiao...I hope that the person everyone is looking at right now is me...
Ruan Xiao's eyes moved to Bai Xiyu who was not far from An Qiao again.
Bai Xiyu has a tall and straight figure, cool and out of the world, and is also a very dazzling existence.
"Beep boo".
With a slight sound, Ruan Xiao bit off a small piece of nail.
The originally slender white and round index finger tip was oozing red blood, and the nails and flesh and blood gaps were pitted and blurred.
Ruan Xiao didn't seem to feel anything, but was still thinking about something.
he thinks.
Perhaps, he is a stand-in, which is still very unqualified.
***
There is still a full week until the Grand Prix.
On the night of the weekend, the German team was on holiday, and they met to go to the bar together.
While chatting, someone thought of Zhou Muye and hurriedly said that he would ask Ean to come over to play with him.
An Qiao squeezed the straw to drink the orange juice, and said, "He won't come, he wants to accompany the little lover."
On the side, the smile on the corner of Bai Xiyu's lips froze for a moment.
A teammate smiled and said, "When I was in the youth group, I always thought Ean and Yu were a couple. I didn't expect Ean to like a cutie like Ruan Xiao."
Bai Xiyu picked up the glass, drank the champagne in one gulp, and smiled slightly: "There are so many things you didn't expect."
Teammates puzzled: "What?"
Bai Xiyu leaned on the back of the sofa, took out her mobile phone: "Believe it or not, I can call Ean out right now."
Then he sneered ironically: "Even if he is on Ruan Xiao's bed."
The teammates looked at each other in a daze, then slapped the table and yelled, urging Bai Xiyu to call quickly.
Only An Qiao looked at Bai Xiyu silently, lowered his eyes, and continued to drink orange juice.
But Bai Xiyu didn't call directly, but sent a message.
At this moment in Zhou's house, Ruan Xiao was flipping through Zhou Muye's professional book in Zhou Muye's room. It was full of chemical formulas and professional terms that he couldn't understand.
As usual, Ruan Xiao came to Zhou Muye's room to play for a while before going to bed.
And Zhou Muye was taking a shower in the attached bathroom.
Suddenly, Zhou Muye's cell phone vibrated next to him.
Ruan Xiao subconsciously looked along.
Bai Xiyu: [[Location Location]]
Ruan Xiao's expression was blank for a moment, before realizing what happened, the message prompt rolled over again.
Bai Xiyu: [Waiting for you here. 】
Ruan Xiao stretched out his hand towards the phone, but stopped halfway there, hanging in mid-air, and restrainedly clenched his palms.
He bit his lower lip tightly and stared at the screen of the phone for a moment, until no one operated and the screen went black again.
Ruan Xiao's face turned red, he took a few breaths, stood up abruptly, almost knocked over the chair, and left Zhou Muye's room as if fleeing.
***
Twenty minutes later, while Ruan Xiao was hiding under the quilt in his room, biting his broken nails and trembling, the door of the guest room was gently pushed open from the outside.
Ruan Xiao held his breath for a moment, and his body froze stiffly.
The footsteps came to the bed and stopped.
Across a quilt, the people outside and the people inside confronted each other silently for a long time.
then.
The quilt on Ruan Xiao's head was slowly lifted.
There was a dim night light in the room, Ruan Xiao clenched his fingers into his palm, and when exposed to the light, he slightly squinted his eyes.
Seeing Zhou Muye standing by the bed, Ruan Xiao called out in a daze, "Aye..."
But when he saw clearly that Zhou Muye was wearing outing clothes, his heart sank.
Ruan Xiao got up from the bed, sat on the head of the bed, licked her lower lip uneasily, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "It's so late, do you still have to go out?"
Zhou Muye sat down by the bed, lowered his eyelashes, and looked at his mobile phone.
Under the light, the corners of the raised eyes were slightly cold.
Ruan Xiao's heart was beating harder and harder, his black eyes were fixed on Zhou Muye, and he squeezed the quilt tightly with one hand, not knowing whether he was expecting Zhou Muye to speak or fearing that Zhou Muye would speak.
"Yeah." Zhou Muye said indifferently, "Go out and do some shopping."
Ruan Xiao blinked, and his heart fell into the ice pool in an instant.
Then, he frowned, with uncontrollable anger rising from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't know why he was so angry.
I really want to ask Zhou Muye, what are we going out to buy so late?
Have you always treated him like a fool?
Ruan Xiao gritted his teeth tightly.
Undoubtedly, Ruan Xiao at this moment is sensitive and suspicious, and will burn at the slightest bit.
At this moment, Zhou Muye turned his head and looked at Ruan Xiao, with a cold and calm voice: "Xiaoxiao, are you taking tranquilizers?"
As if being poured with a basin of water, Ruan Xiao was startled, the anger in his heart was extinguished without a trace, and he felt guilty and flustered for a while.
How did Zhou Muye know?
Ruan Xiao thought it might be Coach Yao, it might be Xiao Kaiyang, or it might be Chen Mo, but if anyone in the club knew about him, they would probably tell Zhou Muye if they were worried about him.
Ruan Xiao twisted the quilt embarrassingly, his face turned red, he lowered his head as if he had done something wrong, and didn't respond, but he acquiesced.
After a while, Zhou Muye stretched out a hand, "Give it to me."
Ruan Xiao pursed her lips, did not make any excuses, opened the bedside table sideways, and took out the medicine bottle from it.
Zhou Muye lowered his head, turned the medicine bottle in his hand, and looked at the sticker on it.
Ruan Xiao looked at him nervously: "Aye..."
After a long while, Zhou Muye looked up at Ruan Xiao, but this time, his eyes were sad: "Don't eat it, you will become addicted."
Ruan Xiao looked at Zhou Muye, at this moment, he suddenly became sure that Zhou Muye was still worried about him.
Because of this discovery, the spikes all over his body gradually retracted, and his heart became soft.
Ruan Xiao muttered: "Okay, I got it..."
Zhou Muye put the medicine bottle into the pocket of his leather jacket, stood up, and said, "Get a good night's sleep first, let's have a good talk tomorrow."
Ruan Xiao was startled, and then, his body was quicker than his thoughts, and he rushed over and hugged Zhou Muye's waist.
Ruan Xiao buried his face in front of Zhou Muye, and whispered eagerly, "Aye...don't go..."
He wanted to say not to see Bai Xiyu, but he couldn't say it.
He changed back to his docile and sensible look, with a little cowardice, and his tone was full of humility.
He was afraid that Zhou Muye would be angry if he found out that he had peeked at his text messages.
He felt that the current self was annoying enough, and he didn't want to do any more annoying things.
Ruan Xiao thought for a moment, closed his eyes hard, and said without hesitation, "Aye, I really can't sleep, can you stay with me? Let's go shopping tomorrow..."
Zhou Muye looked at Ruan Nan Fengxiao with lowered eyelashes, and frowned slightly because of his big reaction.
Zhou Muye stroked Ruan Xiao's hair with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Ruan Xiao made room for Zhou Muye, Zhou Muye took off his coat, put on the bed with his clothes closed.
After turning off the lights, Ruan Xiao consciously slipped into Zhou Muye's arms.
Ruan Xiao raised his face, looked at Zhou Muye through the dim moonlight outside, and said in a voice so thin that it would break if he pinched it, "Aye, are you not going out?"
Zhou Muye looked down at him, his eyes were dim and difficult to understand, and finally, he pressed Ruan Xiao's head close to his heart: "Quickly sleep."
Ruan Xiao panicked when he didn't get an affirmative answer.
His eyelashes trembled slightly, and his face emerged from Zhou Muye's arms. He grabbed Zhou Muye's collar with his fingers and moved closer: "Aye, can you kiss me..."
half an hour.
Zhou Muye said softly, "Are you too clingy?"
Having said that, he still bowed his head and greeted him.
I don't know how long it took, Ruan Xiao backed away a little, shrugged slightly, panting softly:
"Aye, don't you want to go out..."
"Um……"
Zhou Muye's low voice softened, and he kissed Ruan Xiao again.
In the middle of the night, Ruan Xiao fell asleep by the pillow.
Zhou Muye stood by the bed, and after putting on his coat, he finally looked back from that childish little face when he was asleep.
Then, walk out of the room.
After a while, there was the low sound of an engine starting in the yard outside.
Light flickered across the curtains.
In the room, the seemingly sleeping person slowly opened his eyes.
There was something broken in Ruan Xiao's eyes, but after a while, the broken light disappeared, and the eyes gradually turned into pure blackness.
Ruan Xiao stretched out his hand, and brushed his palm against the bed sheet that was still warm.
It wasn't until the sound of the car faded away that a thin but tenacious voice came to mind in the dark room:
"Zhou Muye, good job..."
Ruan Xiao slowly clenched his palms against the bed sheet, staring at the void, finally blinked, and slightly bent the corner of his lower lip.
Thank you for your hypocrisy for so long.
***
Yunyan was woken up in the middle of the night by the continuous knocking on the door. She wrapped her nightgown and went downstairs, feeling like she had seen a ghost.
When she reached the door, she opened the door impatiently without even looking at the cat's eyes.
The moment he saw the boy outside the door, he lost all sleepiness in an instant.
It was approaching November, and the nights were cold, with a haze of frost in the air.
Ruan Xiao stood in the moonlight in front of the doorstep, his small face was pale with cold, as if he had just gotten up from the bed, the edge of short pajama pants was exposed under the wide T-shirt, only a large coat was draped over it, and he was exposed to the outside world. His thin white legs were in black leather boots.
Yunyan rubbed her eyes, stunned: "Xiaoxiao, you..."
Ruan Xiao said, "Teacher Yun, I know who I am now."
Before Ruan Xiao was 16 years old, when she was bullied, she would hide behind the slide in the orphanage and cry. After meeting Pei Zhan, she was gradually taught to be tough and forbearing, and then she met Zhou Muye.
Under Zhou Muye's favor, he doesn't need to repeat the hardships and hardships of his previous life. No matter what he wants, Zhou Muye will give him, and he can live the best life without working hard.
He was so smooth and happy all the time that he lost the ability to experience pain and forgot what it was to be strong and independent.
But now, Ruan Xiao can't get what she wants, can't get what she loves, and her heart is full of anger, ignorance, and resentment.
He remembered who he was.
He was Ruan Xiao, the same Ruan Xiao who would hide behind the slide and wipe his tears when things went wrong.
He could never become An Qiao or Bai Xiyu.
But the only difference from before is that after experiencing everything, Ruan Xiao felt unwilling and unwilling to accept it.
Some of his longings were growing wildly, as strong as the pain that fate had given him at this time.
In the past, An Qiao just put down a fire in his heart, but at some point, the fire became more and more intense, covering the sky and covering the earth.
The white swan struggled with his neck hanging in the fire. It was so painful that he had to change from weak to strong until he finally turned into ashes, and then he flapped his wings from the ashes to stand up again.
At this moment outside the door, Ruan Xiao looked at Yunyan with a trembling smile:
"Teacher Yun, I want to dance the black swan."
The author has something to say:
I wish everyone a happy New Year’s Eve~ I’m very happy to be able to witness Xiaoxiao’s growth with all the sisters, sisters, aunts and mothers on the last day, and continue to work hard next year!
Bai Xiyu raised his voice intentionally from behind: "You don't need to pretend in front of me, you and I both know that Zhou Muye can't possibly like you!"
It was as if a sudden gust of wind blew towards Ruan Xiao from behind, piercing through the emptiest part of his body.
Ruan Xiao abruptly stopped the blade on the spot, his eyes fixed on Zhou Muye who was separated by an ice rink in front of him.
The first thing he could hear was not a negative voice, but a murmur that was so weak that it couldn't be weaker, going away with the wind from the hollow of his body.
Yup……
Ano is such a great person.
how is this possible……
Ruan Xiao subconsciously clenched his palms tightly, his nails pinching the soft flesh, the slight pain made him blink quickly, and immediately regained his senses.
Ruan Xiao pulled the corner of his lower lip in a self-deprecating manner, and when he realized it, he was almost laughed at by himself.
Casually let Bai Xiyu's words mess up his mind, and now he still doubts Zhou Muye's feelings for him. If Zhou Muye knows this, he will definitely turn his back on him.
Ruan Xiaowu calmed down, and after a while, he turned to look at Bai Xiyu.
That delicate little face usually likes to smile, and his expression is always gentle, but at this moment, it is rare to be as cold as ice, and one can even vaguely see the suppressed anger behind him.
Ruan Xiao has such a good personality that he has no temper, but at the moment he is really angry.
He could vaguely feel that if he couldn't use some stronger emotions to support himself, he might be directly defeated by Bai Xiyu's words.
About Zhou Muye not liking him...
"It's up to you whether you like it or not." Ruan Xiao said to Bai Xiyu with a cold voice, "Ah Ye is very good to me, it's enough for me to feel his liking."
Looking at Bai Xiyu's mocking expression, Ruan Xiao suddenly realized that what he said to Bai Xiyu was meaningless and meaningless.
Bai Xiyu did it on purpose, he didn't want to see him well, and didn't think he would.
Ruan Xiao turned back, just wanting to leave quickly.
However, at this moment, Bai Xiyu said: "What does he like about you?"
Ruan Xiao's back visibly stiffened.
There was no sound for a while.
The smile in Bai Xiyu's eyes was even bigger, he slid two steps forward, and quietly approached behind Ruan Xiao.
Ruan Xiao's eyes showed a daze, and he was desperately thinking about what Zhou Muye liked about him, so that he could prove himself by saying it.
A demonic whisper suddenly sounded in my ears:
"Or, what do you have that he likes..."
Ruan Xiao looked forward.
Zhou Muye lowered his eyelashes slightly, his face was expressionless, and when he was not speaking, it was always hard to guess what he was thinking.
There was a flicker of light in the dark eyes, which was too fragile to be vulnerable.
Ruan Xiao opened her red lips, and retorted without thinking, "You don't understand, he likes me..."
When the voice in the ear chuckled, it passed by with a cool breath, and ruthlessly exposed the facts: "Even you don't know what he likes you, and you still blindfold yourself, cover your ears, and imagine that you are loved with..."
"Don't you think it's sad to guard a relationship that you don't even think you deserve? I believe you don't feel well either."
Ruan Xiao frowned, pursed her lips, showing a desperate look, and was about to leave: "I didn't, you lied, I won't talk to you."
However, before sliding out, Bai Xiyu grabbed his wrist from behind and held him tightly to prevent him from leaving.
Ruan Xiao gritted his teeth, for some reason, he couldn't even pull his hand back.
Bai Xiyu's tone became more and more confident, and he said leisurely: "Since you can't see the reality clearly, why don't you let me tell you what's going on."
Ruan Xiao's palms felt cold, because he already had a premonition of how cruel the next words would be, and he couldn't restrain the fear in his heart.
Bai Xiyu uttered each word, his voice whispered behind Ruan Xiao's ear, low and clear: "If you hadn't lied about being pregnant, Zhou Muye would have noticed you?"
Ruan Xiao's face turned pale in an instant.
Zhou Muye said almost exactly the same thing...
Bai Xiyu said: "I'm sure you know how responsible he is. He treats you well only because of his sense of responsibility. I sympathize with him. His feelings for you have to start with a lie. How much truth do you think he likes?" Element?"
Ruan Xiao struggled weakly with his wrist, but was held even tighter by Bai Xiyu.
Bai Xiyu raised his eyes from behind Ruan Xiao's shoulder, looked at the crowd ahead, and said, "You said Zhou Muye likes you, ask yourself, why does he like you? How about... just look at An Qiao..."
As if under a spell, Ruan Xiao's eyes fell on the eye-catching young man among the crowd in front of him.
Blonde hair, green pupils, a face as beautiful as an angel...
At this time, the teammate next to An Qiao rubbed his head, An Qiao glanced at his teammate sideways, then tilted his head, and looked at Zhou Muye who was talking indifferently.
Although the voice in his ear was soft, Ruan Xiao felt that it was sharper than a knife:
"In terms of looks, An Qiao is better looking than you. In terms of strength, An Qiao can take the first place casually, but you... are really embarrassed. In terms of family background, An Qiao's family has a strong influence in Germany. , you may not be able to imagine..."
Ruan Xiao's lips trembled, and he couldn't help but murmur: "I know..."
More than ten years ago, An Qiao's father cooperated with Zhou Muye's father in a real estate project. Such a family must be either rich or expensive.
Bai Xiyu glanced at Ruan Xiao, and said, "That's the person who is worthy of Zhou Muye. Excellent people should be with excellent people."
Only this sentence pierced Ruan Xiao almost instantly, and his eyes instantly turned heavy with pain.
The reason why Ruan Xiao has worked hard for a long time is condensed in Bai Xiyu's words.
Bai Xiyu stabbed all his anxiety and inferiority complex.
At this moment, Zhou Muye, who was in the distance, looked towards this side unintentionally. He didn't know what he saw, but he frowned slightly, then said something to the people on the left and right, walked through the crowd towards the entrance, and stepped on the ice.
Ruan Xiao saw Zhou Muye walking towards him.
Obviously, Bai Xiyu also saw it, but he didn't let go of Ruan Xiao immediately, but stared at Zhou Muye like a poisonous snake, and continued unhurriedly:
"One more thing to remind you, before you, Zhou Muye liked me. I believe more and more that if drunken sex really exists, it's just that he thinks you are me..."
Ahead, Zhou Muye was getting closer and closer, looking towards this side as if probing, his brows and eyes were distant, and his eyes were gradually gloomy.
From Zhou Muye's perspective, he could only see Ruan Xiao's increasingly pale and dazed complexion, with a broken light in his dark eyes, and Bai Xiyu behind him, like a lurking shadow, couldn't see his expression clearly.
At this moment, Bai Xiyu was still saying: "Ruan Xiao, this is why I hate you. You put on a pure and innocent face all day long, but you use some indecent means to enter a world that doesn't belong to you and snatch my position." , use your identity as a weak person to kidnap Zhou Muye, and make him responsible for you..."
Ruan Xiao's chest heaved twice, almost unable to breathe.
"I'm curious, how long are you going to kidnap him?"
After saying the last sentence, Bai Xiyu let go of his hand suddenly, and raised his hand in the air as if it had nothing to do with him. With a gentle smile on his face, he raised his voice and said to Ruan Xiao: "Come on for the grand prix, I am looking forward to your event." Performance."
Almost at the same time as Bai Xiyu let go, Zhou Muye came to a place a few steps away from Ruan Xiao's front, and directly stretched out his hand to pull Ruan Xiao's other wrist, pulling him towards him.
Ruan Xiao seemed to be pulled ashore suddenly from the cold and dark bottom, and rushed towards the warm light, his face was buried tightly in Zhou Muye's chest, he took a sharp breath, and his shrunken shoulders were trembling uncontrollably.
Zhou Muye looked at Ruan Xiao with lowered eyelashes, and said in a low voice, "What did he say to you just now?"
Ruan Xiao still buried his face, shook his head, and tightened his fingers holding Zhou Muye's coat.
But Bai Xiyu smiled and answered for Ruan Xiao: "Just catch up with him."
Then, changing the subject, he said to Zhou Muye: "Muye, long time no see. I heard that your grandfather was hospitalized recently. I brought some supplements from abroad. I will visit him when I have time."
Zhou Muye raised his eyelashes to look at Bai Xiyu, his brows were cold: "Keep it for yourself."
After finishing speaking, he took Ruan Xiao's shoulders and led him away from the ice rink.
Zhou Muye brought Ruan Xiao to the locker room.
Ruan Xiao sat down, lowered his head to loosen the laces of his skates, his little face was lifeless, the corners of his eyes were red, a little damp, with traces of crying.
Zhou Muye leaned back against the locker opposite, looked at Ruan Xiao, his attitude was not bad, and asked again: "What did he say to you?"
Ruan Xiao loosened the lace of one of the skates with a rustle, and lightly pursed the corner of her lips before saying weakly: "He said that I was in a mess when I fell during the competition."
Zhou Muye raised his face slightly, leaned his head against the cabinet door, looked at Ruan Xiao with half-closed eyelashes, and said after a while, "You'd better tell me the truth."
Without looking up, Ruan Xiao loosened the gap between the laces of the other skate, raised one hand and extended three fingers: "Aye, I promise to tell the truth."
Zhou Muye licked his lower lip, stood upright, and said in a slow tone, "Being far away from him tomorrow."
"Yeah." Ruan Xiao still hung his head, nodded, and whispered, "He is good or bad, I don't like him..."
Zhou Muye walked over, reached out and rubbed Ruan Xiao's head, then lifted his pants leg, squatted on one knee, and helped Ruan Xiao change his shoes.
Ruan Xiao quietly glanced at Zhou Muye, and then again.
I couldn't help thinking strangely in my heart.
How could such a nice person like Ah Ye like him.
***
From that night on, Ruan Xiao began to suffer from insomnia.
I woke up groggy the next day, and when I got to the club, I couldn't get up at all.
Coach Yao saw that something was wrong with Ruan Xiao, and wondered if he was sick, and asked him to go to the club's infirmary once, but there was no problem after the examination.
Ruan Xiao thought that the insomnia was just accidental, but on the second and third nights, it was still the same, and the state of training during the day was getting worse and worse, so he had to contact Yunyan in advance to ask her to come a few days later to accept the results of the training.
In addition to the effects of insomnia, because Ruan Xiao has not improved in training these days, his chest feels tight and uncomfortable from time to time, and his heart is always in a mess.
Ruan Xiao also knows that figure skating, a sport that needs years of training to produce results, also requires artistic comprehension, and it is useless to rush.
But the more he knew this was the case, the more anxious Ruan Xiao became.
The Grand Prix is getting closer and closer, and there is not much time left for him.
Going on like this is not an option, Ruan Xiao thought about it, and finally bypassed the team doctor and asked for leave one afternoon to go to the hospital.
The doctor outside didn't know Ruan Xiao's identity, so he prescribed a bottle of tranquilizer according to the conventional treatment method.
When getting the tranquilizer, Ruan Xiao hesitated.
As an athlete, you must not take tranquilizers during the competition. If a urine test finds illegal drugs, it can be said to be a devastating blow to an athlete's career.
Fortunately, there is still some time before the game, as long as it is disabled in time.
Moreover, it is difficult for him to fall asleep now. If this trend continues, he will not be able to survive the Grand Prix.
After thinking about it, Ruan Xiao took the tranquilizer anyway, keeping it from everyone.
Ruan Xiao understands that he needs to be in a good state to polish this show, and after this period of time, he will stop using it and it will not affect the final drug test.
Soon, it was the day when Yunyan came to inspect the results.
Ruan Xiao practiced this hundreds of times.
When Yunyan came, Coach Yao opened a skating room for them alone, without letting anyone watch.
The four-minute free skating program can be long or short, but for Ruan Xiao, it is definitely a long process.
When he finally freezes on the ice, he's panting and his mind is blank.
In the past, when Ruan Xiao was practicing other programs, he could know how he performed after skating.
Only "Black Swan" made him unable to touch the bottom, and he didn't have the slightest feeling, so his heart was always hanging.
After Ruan Xiao adjusted his breath, he stood in the middle of the ice rink and looked at Yunyan who was silent on the sidelines.
But when he saw Yunyan's expression, Ruan Xiao already had a premonition, and his heart sank little by little.
Ruan Xiao whispered: "Teacher Yun..."
Yunyan hasn't even put down her handbag since she entered the door. She looked at Ruan Xiao and said, "Ruan Xiao, think about who you are."
When Yunyan turned around, she said in a low voice: "Stop playing Black Swan, you're wasting the show... Let's use Swan Lake for the grand prix."
Ruan Xiao stood there blankly, watching Yunyan go out. In an instant, anxiety reached an unprecedented peak, like a thermometer exploded, mixed with the sleepiness and depression of these days, Bai Xiyu's sarcasm in the eyes, An Qiao's anxiety in the ice. The beautiful posture when spinning up...
"Whoa!"
The plastic bottle fell to the ground, and the white pills gushed out and scattered all over the floor.
It is the scene of collapse when all the games are lost.
In the dark dressing room, Ruan Xiao stared blankly at the pills on the ground. He paused for a while, then slowly squatted down on the ground, picked up the bottle, picked up the pills on the ground, and picked them up.
Picking up, Ruan Xiao picked up two and stuffed them into his mouth.
Doctors put him on strict schedule and dosage of tranquilizers, but he needed them urgently.
At the door of the locker room, a standing figure disappeared.
Bai Xiyu leaned against the wall, looked at the photo he just took in his phone, and smiled with satisfaction.
The gifted figure skater took drugs before the competition, and whether Canada's championship needs to be re-investigated.
As for the title, he had already thought it out for Ruan Xiao.
***
In the following days, Ruan Xiao picked up the program "Swan Lake" again.
As for "Black Swan", since Yun Yan said there was no way, it meant that he was really not suitable.
However, returning to the rhythm of Swan Lake, Ruan Xiao seemed to lose the agility and briskness before.
For some reason, he became a little blunt, and the jumps he was proud of before began to make mistakes.
Once again, Ruan Xiao fell on the ice when falling on the ice, and his body fell to the sidelines due to inertia, hitting the wall.
He stood up slowly, sat on the sidelines, wrapped his knees around his knees, and couldn't hide the look of loneliness on his small face.
However, at this time, applause broke out from the other side of the ice rink.
Ruan Xiao looked, and saw An Qiao's elegant and neat figure turning faster and faster on the ice, from squatting to changing feet and turning backwards, and finally straightened up with floating feet and lifted the blade backward. The whole process was very stable and smooth. Fluid and natural, it is sure to get the highest grade.
Ruan Xiao sat in the corner, raised one hand, put it to his lips and bit his nails, his eyes were fixed on An Qiao, and the light in his eyes gradually changed from bewilderment to something more complicated and difficult to understand.
Why is An Qiao always in such good condition?so smart?
He's improving every day, he's really good at figure skating.
Why can a person have both outstanding appearance and extraordinary strength, and even his family background is so strong that it is unimaginable...
Ruan Xiao bit his nails till they were mottled, and finally, a voice suddenly came out of his empty heart.
Why, I'm not An Qiao...
Ruan Xiao's heart, which had been exhausted and numb for a long time, suddenly seemed to come alive, and jumped violently, but what gushed out of it was no longer bright red blood, but a thick green, viscous, erosive and slow-moving venom.
Ruan Xiao was very unfamiliar with this feeling, but when he looked at An Qiao, the thick green liquid gurgled down from his eye sockets uncontrollably.
Bai Xiyu's words came to mind again.
Excellent people should be with excellent people.
I really want to replace An Qiao...I hope that the person everyone is looking at right now is me...
Ruan Xiao's eyes moved to Bai Xiyu who was not far from An Qiao again.
Bai Xiyu has a tall and straight figure, cool and out of the world, and is also a very dazzling existence.
"Beep boo".
With a slight sound, Ruan Xiao bit off a small piece of nail.
The originally slender white and round index finger tip was oozing red blood, and the nails and flesh and blood gaps were pitted and blurred.
Ruan Xiao didn't seem to feel anything, but was still thinking about something.
he thinks.
Perhaps, he is a stand-in, which is still very unqualified.
***
There is still a full week until the Grand Prix.
On the night of the weekend, the German team was on holiday, and they met to go to the bar together.
While chatting, someone thought of Zhou Muye and hurriedly said that he would ask Ean to come over to play with him.
An Qiao squeezed the straw to drink the orange juice, and said, "He won't come, he wants to accompany the little lover."
On the side, the smile on the corner of Bai Xiyu's lips froze for a moment.
A teammate smiled and said, "When I was in the youth group, I always thought Ean and Yu were a couple. I didn't expect Ean to like a cutie like Ruan Xiao."
Bai Xiyu picked up the glass, drank the champagne in one gulp, and smiled slightly: "There are so many things you didn't expect."
Teammates puzzled: "What?"
Bai Xiyu leaned on the back of the sofa, took out her mobile phone: "Believe it or not, I can call Ean out right now."
Then he sneered ironically: "Even if he is on Ruan Xiao's bed."
The teammates looked at each other in a daze, then slapped the table and yelled, urging Bai Xiyu to call quickly.
Only An Qiao looked at Bai Xiyu silently, lowered his eyes, and continued to drink orange juice.
But Bai Xiyu didn't call directly, but sent a message.
At this moment in Zhou's house, Ruan Xiao was flipping through Zhou Muye's professional book in Zhou Muye's room. It was full of chemical formulas and professional terms that he couldn't understand.
As usual, Ruan Xiao came to Zhou Muye's room to play for a while before going to bed.
And Zhou Muye was taking a shower in the attached bathroom.
Suddenly, Zhou Muye's cell phone vibrated next to him.
Ruan Xiao subconsciously looked along.
Bai Xiyu: [[Location Location]]
Ruan Xiao's expression was blank for a moment, before realizing what happened, the message prompt rolled over again.
Bai Xiyu: [Waiting for you here. 】
Ruan Xiao stretched out his hand towards the phone, but stopped halfway there, hanging in mid-air, and restrainedly clenched his palms.
He bit his lower lip tightly and stared at the screen of the phone for a moment, until no one operated and the screen went black again.
Ruan Xiao's face turned red, he took a few breaths, stood up abruptly, almost knocked over the chair, and left Zhou Muye's room as if fleeing.
***
Twenty minutes later, while Ruan Xiao was hiding under the quilt in his room, biting his broken nails and trembling, the door of the guest room was gently pushed open from the outside.
Ruan Xiao held his breath for a moment, and his body froze stiffly.
The footsteps came to the bed and stopped.
Across a quilt, the people outside and the people inside confronted each other silently for a long time.
then.
The quilt on Ruan Xiao's head was slowly lifted.
There was a dim night light in the room, Ruan Xiao clenched his fingers into his palm, and when exposed to the light, he slightly squinted his eyes.
Seeing Zhou Muye standing by the bed, Ruan Xiao called out in a daze, "Aye..."
But when he saw clearly that Zhou Muye was wearing outing clothes, his heart sank.
Ruan Xiao got up from the bed, sat on the head of the bed, licked her lower lip uneasily, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "It's so late, do you still have to go out?"
Zhou Muye sat down by the bed, lowered his eyelashes, and looked at his mobile phone.
Under the light, the corners of the raised eyes were slightly cold.
Ruan Xiao's heart was beating harder and harder, his black eyes were fixed on Zhou Muye, and he squeezed the quilt tightly with one hand, not knowing whether he was expecting Zhou Muye to speak or fearing that Zhou Muye would speak.
"Yeah." Zhou Muye said indifferently, "Go out and do some shopping."
Ruan Xiao blinked, and his heart fell into the ice pool in an instant.
Then, he frowned, with uncontrollable anger rising from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't know why he was so angry.
I really want to ask Zhou Muye, what are we going out to buy so late?
Have you always treated him like a fool?
Ruan Xiao gritted his teeth tightly.
Undoubtedly, Ruan Xiao at this moment is sensitive and suspicious, and will burn at the slightest bit.
At this moment, Zhou Muye turned his head and looked at Ruan Xiao, with a cold and calm voice: "Xiaoxiao, are you taking tranquilizers?"
As if being poured with a basin of water, Ruan Xiao was startled, the anger in his heart was extinguished without a trace, and he felt guilty and flustered for a while.
How did Zhou Muye know?
Ruan Xiao thought it might be Coach Yao, it might be Xiao Kaiyang, or it might be Chen Mo, but if anyone in the club knew about him, they would probably tell Zhou Muye if they were worried about him.
Ruan Xiao twisted the quilt embarrassingly, his face turned red, he lowered his head as if he had done something wrong, and didn't respond, but he acquiesced.
After a while, Zhou Muye stretched out a hand, "Give it to me."
Ruan Xiao pursed her lips, did not make any excuses, opened the bedside table sideways, and took out the medicine bottle from it.
Zhou Muye lowered his head, turned the medicine bottle in his hand, and looked at the sticker on it.
Ruan Xiao looked at him nervously: "Aye..."
After a long while, Zhou Muye looked up at Ruan Xiao, but this time, his eyes were sad: "Don't eat it, you will become addicted."
Ruan Xiao looked at Zhou Muye, at this moment, he suddenly became sure that Zhou Muye was still worried about him.
Because of this discovery, the spikes all over his body gradually retracted, and his heart became soft.
Ruan Xiao muttered: "Okay, I got it..."
Zhou Muye put the medicine bottle into the pocket of his leather jacket, stood up, and said, "Get a good night's sleep first, let's have a good talk tomorrow."
Ruan Xiao was startled, and then, his body was quicker than his thoughts, and he rushed over and hugged Zhou Muye's waist.
Ruan Xiao buried his face in front of Zhou Muye, and whispered eagerly, "Aye...don't go..."
He wanted to say not to see Bai Xiyu, but he couldn't say it.
He changed back to his docile and sensible look, with a little cowardice, and his tone was full of humility.
He was afraid that Zhou Muye would be angry if he found out that he had peeked at his text messages.
He felt that the current self was annoying enough, and he didn't want to do any more annoying things.
Ruan Xiao thought for a moment, closed his eyes hard, and said without hesitation, "Aye, I really can't sleep, can you stay with me? Let's go shopping tomorrow..."
Zhou Muye looked at Ruan Nan Fengxiao with lowered eyelashes, and frowned slightly because of his big reaction.
Zhou Muye stroked Ruan Xiao's hair with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Ruan Xiao made room for Zhou Muye, Zhou Muye took off his coat, put on the bed with his clothes closed.
After turning off the lights, Ruan Xiao consciously slipped into Zhou Muye's arms.
Ruan Xiao raised his face, looked at Zhou Muye through the dim moonlight outside, and said in a voice so thin that it would break if he pinched it, "Aye, are you not going out?"
Zhou Muye looked down at him, his eyes were dim and difficult to understand, and finally, he pressed Ruan Xiao's head close to his heart: "Quickly sleep."
Ruan Xiao panicked when he didn't get an affirmative answer.
His eyelashes trembled slightly, and his face emerged from Zhou Muye's arms. He grabbed Zhou Muye's collar with his fingers and moved closer: "Aye, can you kiss me..."
half an hour.
Zhou Muye said softly, "Are you too clingy?"
Having said that, he still bowed his head and greeted him.
I don't know how long it took, Ruan Xiao backed away a little, shrugged slightly, panting softly:
"Aye, don't you want to go out..."
"Um……"
Zhou Muye's low voice softened, and he kissed Ruan Xiao again.
In the middle of the night, Ruan Xiao fell asleep by the pillow.
Zhou Muye stood by the bed, and after putting on his coat, he finally looked back from that childish little face when he was asleep.
Then, walk out of the room.
After a while, there was the low sound of an engine starting in the yard outside.
Light flickered across the curtains.
In the room, the seemingly sleeping person slowly opened his eyes.
There was something broken in Ruan Xiao's eyes, but after a while, the broken light disappeared, and the eyes gradually turned into pure blackness.
Ruan Xiao stretched out his hand, and brushed his palm against the bed sheet that was still warm.
It wasn't until the sound of the car faded away that a thin but tenacious voice came to mind in the dark room:
"Zhou Muye, good job..."
Ruan Xiao slowly clenched his palms against the bed sheet, staring at the void, finally blinked, and slightly bent the corner of his lower lip.
Thank you for your hypocrisy for so long.
***
Yunyan was woken up in the middle of the night by the continuous knocking on the door. She wrapped her nightgown and went downstairs, feeling like she had seen a ghost.
When she reached the door, she opened the door impatiently without even looking at the cat's eyes.
The moment he saw the boy outside the door, he lost all sleepiness in an instant.
It was approaching November, and the nights were cold, with a haze of frost in the air.
Ruan Xiao stood in the moonlight in front of the doorstep, his small face was pale with cold, as if he had just gotten up from the bed, the edge of short pajama pants was exposed under the wide T-shirt, only a large coat was draped over it, and he was exposed to the outside world. His thin white legs were in black leather boots.
Yunyan rubbed her eyes, stunned: "Xiaoxiao, you..."
Ruan Xiao said, "Teacher Yun, I know who I am now."
Before Ruan Xiao was 16 years old, when she was bullied, she would hide behind the slide in the orphanage and cry. After meeting Pei Zhan, she was gradually taught to be tough and forbearing, and then she met Zhou Muye.
Under Zhou Muye's favor, he doesn't need to repeat the hardships and hardships of his previous life. No matter what he wants, Zhou Muye will give him, and he can live the best life without working hard.
He was so smooth and happy all the time that he lost the ability to experience pain and forgot what it was to be strong and independent.
But now, Ruan Xiao can't get what she wants, can't get what she loves, and her heart is full of anger, ignorance, and resentment.
He remembered who he was.
He was Ruan Xiao, the same Ruan Xiao who would hide behind the slide and wipe his tears when things went wrong.
He could never become An Qiao or Bai Xiyu.
But the only difference from before is that after experiencing everything, Ruan Xiao felt unwilling and unwilling to accept it.
Some of his longings were growing wildly, as strong as the pain that fate had given him at this time.
In the past, An Qiao just put down a fire in his heart, but at some point, the fire became more and more intense, covering the sky and covering the earth.
The white swan struggled with his neck hanging in the fire. It was so painful that he had to change from weak to strong until he finally turned into ashes, and then he flapped his wings from the ashes to stand up again.
At this moment outside the door, Ruan Xiao looked at Yunyan with a trembling smile:
"Teacher Yun, I want to dance the black swan."
The author has something to say:
I wish everyone a happy New Year’s Eve~ I’m very happy to be able to witness Xiaoxiao’s growth with all the sisters, sisters, aunts and mothers on the last day, and continue to work hard next year!
