Chapter 41
A few days after the Spring Festival, Pingqiu and Chu Tiwei seemed to be stuck at home, they didn’t have to visit the house, and they didn’t have to entertain uninvited guests. In Chu Tiwei’s words, they were busy for a whole year, and it was rare to have ten days When she has time to rest, she wished she could separate two bodies, one would lie in bed 24 hours a day, and the other would occupy the sofa and cycle TV programs endlessly.
Speaking of it, Chu Tiwei is a little strange. She doesn't like to use mobile phones or computers, and she doesn't like to read or write. She only likes TV. She never gets tired of watching it from morning to night, and she can even watch boring sports games without taking her eyes off it.Pingqiu didn't understand her strange habit, so he didn't listen to her persuasion, and simply ignored her, Chu Tiwei watched her TV, and he quietly hid aside and chatted with Xu Xiuyuan who was taking a break from his busy schedule—if that could be called small talk .
In the first two days after the tacit reconciliation, Pingqiu was always a little inexplicably cautious, even if he talked to Xu Xiuyuan through the Internet, he often had to think twice and think twice.As a result, his speech was stuttered, and the two of them were like new friends who met for the first time, and the result of trying to find something to talk about could only be nothing to talk about.Even in the summer vacation of the year Xu Xiuyuan graduated from high school, they hadn't seen each other for several years, no matter how hot they were, they had never experienced such an embarrassing stage. Two sentences.On the contrary, Xu Xiuyuan's video calls every night have never been interrupted. Even if he is dizzy with work, he will still say goodnight to Pingqiu face to face before going to bed.
Two days ago, Pingqiu received a New Year gift from Huazhang.He spent the New Year in his grandfather's hometown this year, and brought some gadgets made by his family at the party. Pingqiu liked it very much, so he asked him to have dinner at the restaurant tonight, and the reason was to thank him for the New Year's gift.It happened that Huazhang was free, and a student was practicing piano at his home. After the end, he went directly to the restaurant and asked where the restaurant was and how to get Pingqiu. Pingqiu said that it was the restaurant where they first met, and declined him Come pick up.
While looking for the storage box beside the bed, Pingqiu vaguely heard a sound in the living room, as if Chu Tiwei was calling him.With a vague reply, he poked his arm into the gap between the wall and the storage box, and after struggling for a long time, he finally fished out the little red gift box.
At this time, there was no movement in the living room, Pingqiu thought it was an auditory hallucination, took off the wet towel to wipe off the dust on his hands, then opened the gift box, inside was a jade plaque with a red string, and a small plastic bag in the interlayer. Inside was a ring.Ping Qiu didn't pay attention to the ring, but touched the texture of the jade, it was cold, so before putting it on, he warmed the jade with the palm of his hand, then untied the red string, and put the jade on his chest.
Putting on the attire prepared for the appointment, seeing that the time is a little tight, Ping Qiu hurried out, only to see Chu Tiwei standing by the sofa with his hands on his hips.
Seeing him, Chu Tiwei pointed to the cardboard box in front of him and said, "Someone sent it."
Pingqiu wore a sock on one foot, stood unsteadily, jumped two steps forward, stretched his neck and asked, "Who?"
"The last name is Xu."
"...Xiu Yuan?"
"His brother. The one who lent me money."
"Xu Ruiyang?" Ping Qiu was surprised, "He just came? Why didn't he call me?"
"Not him, the one with the hat."
The one with the hat?Pingqiu wondered: "How long have you been walking?"
"Just now."
Quickly jumping to the window with one leg, Ping Qiu opened the blackout curtain and looked down, and sure enough, he saw Xu Ruiyang's assistant wearing a hat came down the stairs and was trotting into the car.
In the past two years, Xu Ruiyang's career has been going all the way, and he is usually too busy to touch the ground, but whenever he is free, he will find various excuses to find Pingqiu.
He thinks he has made it very clear, now that Pingqiu treats him as an ordinary friend, the reason why he didn't cruelly stop him from outside the house is because there is a previous relationship about Chu Tiwei borrowing money.Knowing that this was Xu Ruiyang's idea, she wanted Ping Qiu to accept his affection, so that Ping Qiu would bow to him in the future.Although this approach is a little despicable, it is the most direct way to kidnap Pingqiu.Ping Qiu felt helpless for Xu Ruiyang's childishness, but he really lost the confidence to kick him out.
During this period, Xu Ruiyang would often give Pingqiu gifts.If he is too busy with work to get away, he will ask his assistant to come to the door.The gifts he gave varied from big to small, once he even stuffed a ring in the gift box and pretended to be careless when asked.Ping Qiu returned the ring, and laughed at him not because he was careless, but because he was too careless.For other gifts, he can still exchange them for equivalent gifts and return them with both hands. He can't afford to pay back a diamond ring, let alone accept it.He is not a bride-to-be who doesn't need a man to hand him a ring.If someone needs it at that time, Ping Qiu said that he would sincerely bless Xu Ruiyang.
As for the gift this time, Xu Ruiyang didn't have time to ask Ping Qiu if he received it until the evening.Pingqiu glanced at it, but didn't rush to reply, instead turned the phone screen upside down on the table, and looked up at Huazhang who was hastily seated.
"Sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road," Hua Zhang sat down and looked around, "Have you ordered food yet?"
"You said to light it first, I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered it as it was when we first met. You don't mind?"
"It doesn't matter, I'm not picky eaters."
Huazhang was surprised by Pingqiu's sudden invitation to have dinner together.After all, the presents he gave were just some handmade gifts, and they were not so expensive that Pingqiu should treat them in return, so guessing that Pingqiu had something to say, Huazhang waited for him to speak.
But beyond Huazhang's expectation, even after the meal was over, they chatted about everything, but Pingqiu didn't mention the serious business for a long time.
When the bill was settled after the meal, the waiter pressed the menu on the table, Huazhang was about to pay the bill, but Pingqiu stopped him and said: "The first time is your treat, let me have this meal today."
"It's okay," Hua Zhang didn't care, "It's just a meal, please treat me next time."
"Just this time," Ping Qiu insisted, "I should pay you back."
Dazed for a moment, Huazhang realized that Pingqiu's stubbornness at this time seemed unreasonable.But when his gaze met his, Pingqiu's eyes were firm and he didn't dodge the slightest bit, but Huazhang's little suspicion in his heart was confirmed in an instant.
He blinked, understood the deep meaning of Pingqiu's words, couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, motioned the waiter to turn to Pingqiu, and acquiesced to Pingqiu's opinion - this meal was considered to be the end of their relationship. A fair and perfect bill.
Leaving his seat after dinner, Huazhang went out first, stopped after walking for a while, Pingqiu stopped after him, and the two faced each other.
"Since the relationship has returned to the safety line," Huazhang said, "do you want to give me a reason?"
"I have someone I like." Ping Qiu confessed.
"Oh, guessed it. Before me or after? I care more about that."
"... is someone I've always liked," Ping Qiu felt apologetic, "I should have told you, but I didn't even figure it out myself some time ago, so I wasn't honest with you, I hope you don't get angry."
"Are you sure about the relationship?"
"Ah."
"That's not bad, congratulations," Huazhang said again, "but you are too serious. I invited you to dinner when we met for the first time, but this time I refused, and I still have to choose the same restaurant and order the same dishes. Is it too careful to give it back to me exactly as it is?"
"Isn't that good? With a fair premise, getting along with each other will be much more comfortable in the future."
"With a friend like me, your incumbent won't mind?"
"No, he's very good now."
As if overwhelmed by the obvious joy on Pingqiu's face, Huazhang stared at him curiously, smiling a little playfully.Ping Qiu was embarrassed by his stare, lowered his head to avoid sight, the two walked together for a certain distance, and parted at the intersection.
"In the future, if you have a chance, you can bring your boyfriend over and play with us," Huazhang suggested, "you can rest assured that my friends are all decent people, they won't spoil anyone, and they play normally. But the premise It is you who should confess to him my previous relationship with you, although there is no romantic atmosphere, it is better to be honest when dealing with feelings."
"Okay, I remember."
"Then I'm leaving, see you again by chance?"
"Goodbye."
Pingqiu waved his hand, watching Huazhang trot to the sidewalk, just happened to be a green light, he walked very fast without turning his head.
With Huazhang cutting off any possibility of the future openly and honestly, Pingqiu's mood can't be called pity or guilt, but thinking of Liu Chenchen, he will be a little distressed, and he hasn't figured out how to explain it to her.
But he didn't expect Liu Chenchen's news to be so well-informed. Pingqiu had dinner with Huazhang that night, and she came to the door the next evening, asking if Pingqiu had been pestered again recently.In her eyes, Pingqiu's denial meant that he was forced by his ex without realizing it, she wished she could hold Pingqiu's shoulder and shake him awake, as if she was saving a lost girl.
Pingqiu guessed that in Liu Chenchen's impression, Xu Xiuyuan's image was probably linked to some vicious gangsters, and he couldn't help admiring her rich imagination, and being filled with righteous indignation for him was enough righteousness, but more of it was helpless, so he tried his best to get Xu Xiuyuan out of the way. She was removed from the "wicked person" list.
"He is not as bad as you imagined, we would break up at that time, and he and I both had problems." Ping Qiu said.
"Even if there is a reason, the problem must be on him." Liu Chenchen restrained his anger, crossed his legs and crossed his arms, "I have known you for at least five or six years, and we have been colleagues for two or three years. What is your temper?" I know, it’s just to be submissive, abuse a good person, others tell you to go east, can you go west? If you were so good, you would have been promoted to be the vice principal in our unit back then.”
"It's not that exaggerated," Ping Qiu said with a smile, "I'm not a bad person, it's just that sometimes other people's suggestions are more correct, and if someone needs help, it's not a big deal."
"I'm afraid you'll be cheated. That younger brother of yours doesn't seem like a good deal at first glance. If you break up once, you may break up a second time. If your problems have reached the point of breaking up, it means that the problem is not so easy to solve. .right?"
"...I don't know what to say."
"Is it that shameful? Forget it, don't say it if you don't want to."
"I'm not trying to hide it from you."
"I know," Liu Chenchen grabbed Pingqiu's shoulder and said earnestly, "I only advise you this time, I shouldn't get involved in this kind of matter, but I don't trust you, I'm afraid you trust people too easily , What if you are cheated again this time? Philosophers say that you can’t step into the same river twice. How can you be sure that the problem that caused you to break up for the first time has been solved and will not affect you in the future? Or him? If I'm right, the problem has not been solved at all, if you continue like this, isn't it a waste of time and emotion? "
Suddenly hit by Liu Chenchen's question, Pingqiu opened his mouth to refute, but remained silent because he had nothing to say.
It is true that the questions raised by Liu Chenchen really hit the point.As friends, Chu Tiwei would not make any suggestions on Pingqiu's private life, let alone point fingers, only Liu Chenchen was always outspoken, but he was able to speak clearly, forcing Pingqiu to wake up suddenly from the joy of regaining what was lost.
For a long time, the past with Xu Xiuyuan seemed to be Pingqiu's secret private possession.He never thought that he could share the past with a third party. Even if he wanted to talk, it was always difficult to explain clearly, and it was difficult to continue the conversation at the beginning.
But Pingqiu had to admit that Liu Chenchen really hit the nail on the head - even though he could understand and accept Xu Xiuyuan's difficulties, and was willing to work hard to get closer to him for his expectations, sweet words were always liked, but sugar-coated things were not always sweet Ping Qiu couldn't deny that he was always afraid of Xu Xiangnan.
As Xu Xiuyuan said, he is an adult, and although he is unwilling, he is learning to be a real adult, so he needs to regain his rights and independence.But at the same time, as a son of man, it is impossible for him to throw away his parents who have raised him for nearly 20 years like throwing away a piece of clothing. Pingqiu may not be the most important conflict between him and his mother Xu Xiangnan, but as a mother-child war two years ago The fuse of the outbreak, Ping Qiu does not want to repeat the same mistakes, let alone Xu Xiuyuan's regrets in the future.
On New Year's Eve, Ping Qiuli should have a very appropriate time to test Xu Xiuyuan's relationship with Xu Xiangnan's mother and child in the past two years, but he was kidnapped by emotions at that time, and he couldn't spare any attention to care about these details. Then he remembered, On the contrary, it was difficult to speak.
Received a video invitation at night, Pingqiu and Chu Tiwei greeted each other, and went back to the room with their mobile phones in their arms.When he touched his fingers while pulling the curtains, he gasped in pain. He saw that he had bitten his fingernails bald because of his irritability earlier, and some blood was coming out between the nails.He hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth and sucked off the blood beads. Just when the video was connected, Xu Xiuyuan showed his face, wearing glasses, and he was still in the company in the background.
"Go home?" Ping Qiu asked.
"Just about to go back," Xu Xiuyuan put his phone on the table, took two steps back, and took off the coat hanging on the back of the chair, "And you, have you eaten yet?"
"It's already nine o'clock, how could it be possible that you haven't eaten yet. Haven't you eaten yet? You haven't eaten lunch yet?"
"forgotten."
He will forget when he eats and sleeps, but he only remembers the video at nine o'clock as agreed, so Ping Qiu really doesn't know what to say about him.
Fortunately, Xu Xiuyuan’s single apartment for internship is near the company. It takes about 10 minutes to walk. When he gets home, he cooks instant noodles casually, works overtime while eating, and diverts his attention from time to time. The newly prepared purchase list after two years does not disturb each other, but it is very harmonious.
Sometimes chatting, Xu Xiuyuan would explain to Pingqiu that he was able to arrange to rent this single apartment up to now, in fact it was thanks to He Xiaoxian's blessing.
At that time, He Xiaoxian and Yuan Feng pushed and pulled each other for nearly two and a half years before confirming their relationship. Let’s not talk about the twists and turns in the middle. In short, the two of them had a relationship. Xu Xiuyuan among them all benefited - in the final analysis, without Pingqiu's personality, He Xiaoxian might not have taken the fledgling Xu Xiuyuan seriously.
In the second semester of his sophomore year, Xu Xiuyuan accidentally learned of Yuan Feng's identity.It is said that people go to high places. At that time, he had already set his eyes on this fat sheep, so he recommended himself many times in his junior year, and his resume was filled to the brim, but Yuan Feng only regarded him as a boy with eyes above his head, He didn't pay attention to it at all, and made Xu Xiuyuan worthless several times, and then simply turned him away.
And He Xiaoxian was that turning point.He solved Xu Xiuyuan's obstacles for several months with a few words, Xu Xiuyuan thanked him for his kindness, but He Xiaoxian waved his hand, despising that this high-risk job that Xu Xiuyuan will spend the next few years investing in is a child's playhouse.He Xiaoxian was used to being rich since he was a child, money is not money, and he was able to help Xu Xiuyuan purely for Pingqiu's sake.
Speaking of this, Xu Xiuyuan smiled suddenly: "He's actually very clever, isn't he? I used to say that he was a peacock without hair, but now that I think about it, I might have said something wrong."
"He helped you so much. Have you ever thanked him? After all, your business has nothing to do with him. He is willing to help you. You must thank him."
"Listen to you. Find a chance and give him a gift? But he probably doesn't like ordinary gifts, and he's not in the country all year round, so no one can find him," Xu Xiuyuan had a whim, "It's better to wait for me this summer. After graduation, let's fly to him and accompany you on vacation?"
"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to ask you, are you not going to continue studying?"
"...Isn't studying to make money? Isn't it good now? With money in hand, at least freedom."
"I hope you can continue to study," Pingqiu said seriously, "You are a good seed for studying, don't force yourself to do something that makes you unhappy, you can relax and study hard."
"Don't talk about this," Xu Xiuyuan changed the subject, "Promise me, this summer vacation?"
"You're obviously talking about them, why are you talking about me?"
"Don't you want to go? I really want to, it's best just the two of us."
"Let's talk about it, I'm not sure yet," Ping Qiu's heart was pounding, "There will be a chance."
Time flies, seeing that the Spring Festival holiday is coming to an end, Chu Tiwei returns to Beijing the day after tomorrow, and agrees that Pingqiu will accompany her to go shopping in the city for a day.
At the end of the day, the two of them walked with weak legs.In the evening, Pingqiu received an invitation from Shao Dongshuang in the work group to organize a game, saying that she had won a lottery during the Spring Festival, and she had won a chafing dish.
In a blink of an eye, Ping Qiu, Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling's replies have already caught up, and they are gearing up to come to the door tomorrow.Xi Youwen will show up later, but it's a pity that she will go back to her hometown during the Chinese New Year, and she won't be able to make it back tomorrow.Chen Xiaoyi hurriedly said it was a pity, the four girls chatted in full swing.
Until Xu Miaoling interjected to ask if the boss was coming, Shao Dongshuang quickly circled Cheng Zinong, a silent member of the group.Pingqiu's sentence "temporarily not sure" got stuck in the middle.Half a minute later, Shao Dongshuang withdrew the message.
Almost at the same time, the background of the work group showed that Cheng Zinong had withdrawn from the group chat.Ping Qiu was taken aback for a moment, and then received a private chat from Cheng Zinong.His tone was very normal, explaining that he quit the work group because he had decided not to do part-time jobs anymore, it would not be good to continue to stay in the group of colleagues under such circumstances, there was no other reason, I hope Pingqiu understands.
They are all polite words, the real reason is well known to each other, Pingqiu also imitated him, just say yes, I know.
With Cheng Zinong interrupted, Ping Qiu's refusal seemed a little unreasonable.He hesitated for a while, and replied nonchalantly in the work group: If you don't mind adding me as a man, I'll do it.
Chen Xiaoyi typed quickly: "Call my sister."
Pingqiu: Wei Wei?
Chen Xiaoyi: It's her, it's her, she's still here, let her come, definitely, definitely, definitely!
Doubting when she and Chu Tiwei established a deep friendship, Ping Qiu turned his head and asked, Chu Tiwei's eyes were busy watching TV, and he shook his head: "I don't know."
"It was the little sister who came to our house on the night of the New Year's Eve dinner, with double ponytails."
"Oh." Remembered.
"They all want you to go together tomorrow, do you want to go, come with me."
"Don't go."
"If you don't go, I'm not at home. No one cooks at home."
"……go."
"I know you." Ping Qiu laughed.
According to the agreement, Ping Qiu and Chu Tiwei waited for the others at the intersection in front of the fish market. Ten minutes later, Xu Miaoling and Chen Xiaoyi ran across the zebra crossing holding hands.In the severe cold of winter, it is better for Xu Miaoling to wrap her head to toe in a long coat. Chen Xiaoyi is very stinky, dressed in fancy clothes, the point is that the clothes are thin, with a skirt underneath. No thick stockings were worn.
Xu Miaoling made a fuss, and Chen Xiaoyi blushed so angry that she wanted to hit her.Xu Miaoling rushed behind Pingqiu in two steps, and then ran to Chu Tiwei's side. At this time, Chen Xiaoyi, who was originally baring her teeth and claws, seemed to be suddenly tapped on the Ya acupuncture point. Her face was still red, but she raised her legs together, twisted her waist, and snorted Walked forward with a sound, and grabbed Pingqiu's arm.
Shao Dongshuang was waiting nearby, and saw the four of them walking through the noisy fish market from a distance. She waved her hand, followed the lead into the vegetable market, and began to pick goods according to everyone's preferences on the list.
Not long after, only the host Shao Dongshuang and Pingqiu were left to choose the ingredients.At first Chu Tiwei followed Pingqiu, but for some reason, Xu Miaoling held her arm and pulled her behind, attracting Chen Xiaoyi. Stay where you are.
Afraid of time constraints, Shao Dongshuang tore the menu into two halves, and bought in two ways at the Autumnal Equinox.
Pingqiu walked along the vegetable market all the way to the exit, bought [-] according to the menu, and his hands were full.While lowering his head to check, he suddenly heard someone screaming not far ahead. He looked up and saw a girl in the corner dragged out by a man covering her mouth. The man held a knife in his hand, and the woman who was strangled by him was wearing a white dress. down jacket.
Immediately, there was a buzzing in his ears, Ping Qiu didn't have time to think, dropped everything, and then rushed forward through the crowd.He grabbed Shao Dongshuang's coat and tried to pull her back.
Shao Dongshuang was so frightened that she lost her mind at this moment, she screamed and called for help, thrust her elbow back desperately, and struggled wildly like a fish jumping on a chopping board.It's just that the man who dragged her was terribly strong, Ping Qiu tried to save her, but tried hard to break the man's hand around her throat, but was hit by the man's elbow on the side of the face.
Combined with the coldness and the numbness caused by desperation, Pingqiu couldn't feel the slightest pain.Under the entanglement of the three, the man tripped and Shao Dongshuang fell to the ground.Her eyes were blurred, and she subconsciously crawled forward with her hands and feet. She caught a glimpse of the light out of the corner of her eye, but she had no time to react, and watched as the dagger was about to pierce her lower abdomen.
At this time, a force suddenly pushed her arm, and the moment she fell down again, she watched the unstoppable dagger cut open Pingqiu's clothes.Soon, the blood was spreading, Ping Qiu grabbed Shao Dongshuang by the back collar, and pulled her back forcefully.
Seeing that the man was about to stab Shao Dongshuang again with the second knife, Ping Qiu instinctively blocked it, then heard a low shout, and a strong wind of his legs hit him - the man was suddenly attacked, first the hand holding the knife was kicked hard, and the dagger It fell to the ground with a clang, and was kicked on the side of the waist.He staggered sideways, and then the neck, the opponent's kick made his mouth burst into blood, and in a blink of an eye, he lost his center of gravity and fell to the slippery tile wall on one side.
The three kicks made the man unable to fight back, Chu Ti's face sank like water, his two fists were clenched, and he wanted to move forward as if he didn't think it was enough.Xu Miaoling, who was stunned, hurriedly stopped her, fearing that she would use too much force for a while, and then it would be considered an over-defense, so she whispered to her to see Pingqiu and Shao Dongshuang's injuries first.
When Shao Dongshuang was being dragged by the man, his down jacket rubbed against the muddy water at the entrance of the vegetable market, his collar was crooked, and he was in a mess.Fortunately, the injury was not serious. Apart from the strangle marks on her neck, she was more frightened. She was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a while, tears streaming down her face.
On the other hand, Ping Qiu's injury was much more serious, the sleeve of his sweater was torn, his forearm was cut with a long cut by the dagger, and a large stream of blood trickled down his forearm, staining the blood on his palm.Putting his hands behind his back, Ping Qiu first asked Shao Dongshuang if he was okay, seeing her crying and shaking her head, he let out a sigh of relief, stretched out his right arm to check the injury.The pain came late, and he was too painful to move, but his fingers were twitching in stress.
Some people reported to the police, and the police station was just across the intersection from the vegetable market, and the police came very quickly.
Pingqiu simply took notes and then walked to the side, Chu Tiwei washed his wound with mineral water, the knife cut was a bit deep, she didn't have tools at hand and couldn't bandage it, she wanted to take Pingqiu to the hospital.
The police took a look at his injuries, took photos, and asked Pingqiu to leave his phone number before leaving, and then bring the hospital's list.Pingqiu couldn't write, and Chu Tiwei helped. Seeing Shao Dongshuang calm down, but still trembling, he reminded Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling: "If you have any trouble, please call me."
Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling nodded hurriedly, not daring to look at his bloody arm.
After Pingqiu finished bandaging the wound and left the hospital, Shao Dongshuang's side also temporarily came to an end.
Xu Miaoling relayed the general situation to Pingqiu. It turned out that the man who intended to commit the murder was Shao Dongshuang's ex-boyfriend. The two had been in love for eight years. They were middle and high school classmates. He also agreed, but he regretted it after a few days, and couldn't pester Shao Dongshuang, so he squatted downstairs in her house for a few days, finally waiting for her to go out, and came to the neighborhood, only to see her and Ping Qiu laughing and talking together to buy vegetables together, Finally, his behavior got out of control, intending to quietly drag Shao Dongshuang away.
The whole thing is extremely absurd, Pingqiu worries that Shao Dongshuang will leave a shadow because of it.Xu Miaoling said that this incident was a big one. Shao Dongshuang's parents and the man's parents were in a dispute at the police station. Shao Dongshuang refused to let go and insisted on appealing.The man's parents tearfully begged her to let her go, but Shao Dongshuang remained unmoved.
He applauded her in his heart, and Pingqiu heard that Shao Dongshuang was worried about other accidents and planned to move back to his parents' house, so he simply approved her a week's leave.
Because of her arm injury, it's inconvenient to do things. With Chu Tiwei here, she can at least help Pingqiu get some things or do some small things.But when Chu Ti left slightly the next day, difficulties appeared everywhere in life: once again subconsciously holding a water glass with his right hand, with a shake of his hand, hot water spilled over Ping Qiu's chest.He was very distressed: If he knew it earlier, he would be a left-hander like Xu Xiuyuan.
However, Ping Qiu did not tell Xu Xiuyuan about the injury for the time being.During the fixed video time every night, he intentionally hid his arms under the quilt, only his head was exposed, and he got very close to the camera. Xu Xiuyuan seemed to be walking on the screen, but he deliberately covered the camera with his chest tightly, and asked Pingqiu can't guess where he is.
After taking the medicine, Pingqiu felt a little sleepy, and responded to Xu Xiuyuan one after another.Without saying a few words, he started to yawn, and forced his eyelids to answer Xu Xiuyuan. In fact, he didn't mean what he said, and his words were sticky, and his eyes were closed after a while.
At twelve o'clock at night, Xu Xiuyuan got off the subway, crossed the road, entered the tube building, took out the key from his pocket to open the door, the room was pitch black, only the soft warm light radiated from under the bedroom door.
Taking off his coat in the entrance, throwing the sofa casually, Xu Xiuyuan walked into the bedroom barefoot, and saw that the bed was lit with a human figure bulging under the quilt.He first knelt on the bed with his left knee bent, and slowly crawled to the head of the bed. At the same time, he touched the quilt with his left hand, and what he encountered were Pingqiu's gray pajama pants. It will disperse automatically when you pull it.Then there was the hem of the pajamas, a pure white long-sleeved piece, which had been washed too many times, and the hem was deformed, as if a big hole had leaked out, allowing Xu Xiuyuan to reach in and caress Pingqiu's flat waist.
While the dream was getting tense, Pingqiu inexplicably dreamed that he was a child held by his parents' arms, and the opposite side was a nurse who was preparing injection needles. Before his arms were touched, he trembled in fear, and ran out with tears, saying His words seemed to reverse his identity, he was actually boasting that he had done a good job, don't be afraid, the injection was very fast, and it didn't hurt at all.
He vaguely heard Ping Qiu talking in his sleep, most of them were vaguely understood, but he could hear "injection" clearly.
Xu Xiuyuan was pressing on Pingqiu's body, and had already inserted his hands into the heels of his legs. Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing. At the same time, he slightly exerted force on his hands, and whispered to persuade: "Open your legs, little nurse."
Ping Qiu fell into a drowsy sleep, unable to resist.His legs were broken off, and the pajama pants were pulled up to the heels of his legs, like a cold snake crawling around his calf and hissing towards him.As she climbed higher and higher, she seemed to get between her legs. She Xinzi breathed out, but it was hot like lava.Pingqiu was trembling in his dream, he twisted his waist and abdomen and wanted to run up, but unexpectedly the snake continued to move forward, only stayed in his lower abdomen for a short time, then crawled into his clothes, licked his lower abdomen, and then his chest.
The wet, sticky and numb touch made Pingqiu terrified even in his dreams, so he struggled to wake up, panting and hugged Xu Xiuyuan's head which was stuck in his collar.Pingqiu told him to come out, but Xu Xiuyuan continued to lick him without hesitation, not forgetting to stretch out his hand to make trouble between Pingqiu's legs.Ping Qiu was so stimulated that his face flushed, and he unconsciously held his finger in his mouth, but the other hand, which was originally pushing Xu Xiuyuan away, turned back and hugged Xu Xiuyuan's neck instead, as if encouraging him not to stop.
Both were excited, embracing Dian Luan Dian Feng Feng, so dizzy.In the end Ping Qiufu lay on the bed panting again and again, with his long sleeves rolled up around his neck, unable to cover the bite marks and hickey marks on his shoulders and back.The stimulation of pleasure seemed to numb the pain in his right arm, Pingqiu tried to prop up his body, but fell back to the original position due to exhaustion.
Xu Xiu went back and forth, fetched wet wipes from the living room, wiped Pingqiu's body, and helped him take off the long-sleeved hoodie, only to find that Pingqiu's arms were wrapped in thick bandages.
Pingqiu explained the cause of the injury, and didn't listen to Xu Xiuyuan's answer for a long time. He raised his head and looked back with great effort, only to see Xu Xiuyuan suddenly lowered his head and kissed his back.
Sometimes visual stimuli are more trembling than tactile sensations. Ping Qiu grasped the quilt tightly and felt Xu Xiuyuan slapping his buttocks hard. He was excited and ashamed. When Xu Xiuyuan's fingers slipped and touched his spine, he cried out sensitively and hurriedly Use "bathing" as an excuse to prevent Xu Xiuyuan from getting interested again.
There is only a shower in the house, and Pingqiu stands behind the glass door, facing the tiled wall, his naked body is so tense that he can't help but hold his chest in his mouth slightly, and his legs are also clamped tightly.
But he didn't dare to move. Behind him was Xu Xiuyuan adjusting the water temperature of the shower head.Pingqiu couldn't see him, but he could feel his gaze fixed on his back all the time. He even reached out his hand to Pingqiu's neck, and the back of his hand gently stroked Pingqiu's side face, and touched his chest that fell on his chest. Jade plaque.Like a tamed beast, Pingqiu involuntarily rubbed his cheek against the back of his hand.
When the water temperature was just right and the hot water hit Pingqiu's back, Xu Xiuyuan hugged him from behind, while reminding him to straighten his right arm, not to be drenched in water, while making irresistible movements, he opened Pingqiu's shy body with his hands.
After washing and returning to the bed, Xu Xiuyuan's upper body was bare, pressed against Pingqiu's chest, and gently and slowly stroked his injured right arm: "Next time you encounter this situation, you should protect yourself first."
Pingqiu was refreshed all over, yawned and replied: "It's an emergency, I don't have time to think about it."
"It never occurred to you that I would be worried?"
"I know, but at that time, if I didn't help, I was afraid that Dongshuang would get hurt." Ping Qiu stroked Xu Xiuyuan's wet hair, "If it was you, you would not help if you encountered such a situation. ?"
"If you were there, I would."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"If you are present, you will want to save people, but the result is like this," Xu Xiuyuan gestured to his right arm, "so I will help instead of you. If you are not present, I will weigh the situation and not be as impulsive as you."
"This situation is about a human life, how could it be impulsive?"
"But what does that have to do with me?"
Ping Qiu was taken aback, pushed Xu Xiuyuan away, and sat up with difficulty with one hand: "You shouldn't think so. Could it be that your kindness is all because of me, and you did it on purpose to show me? How is it possible, isn't it Is it too indifferent?"
"If your kindness requires you to act bravely, in exchange for your own injury, then I would rather you be indifferent." Xu Xiuyuan looked directly at Pingqiu, "I never care what others think of me, and I don't want you to take Your own life is exchanged for someone else's. Have you ever thought about it, if the knife is stabbed sideways and hurts other organs, what are you going to pay me? I can't stand any accidents, you know .”
"...I didn't think that much at the time."
"But if it were me, I wouldn't rush to help when I'm not sure, I would consider all the consequences first," Xu Xiuyuan held Pingqiu's back, "I don't expect you to become like me, you probably also despise it I'm too indifferent. There's only one thing, if you encounter this kind of situation in the future, can you think about me before making a decision? "
The accusation of Xu Xiuyuan's indifference was on his lips, but Pingqiu seemed to be hit on the head by his heavy concern, he was dumb, as if being strangled by the throat, unable to say a word.
What else can you reprimand Xu Xiuyuan, reprimand him for being too cautious and heartless, so that he appears too cold and arrogant, or blame him for taking Ping Qiu too seriously, and even expecting Ping Qiu to learn the most basic prudence and self-defense for him, At least you don't have to trade your own safety with others.
"Sometimes, I want you to be more selfish." Xu Xiuyuan tugged on Pingqiu's neckline, "Tell me what you like to hear, maybe I have always loved you more than you imagined."
He would always be dazzled by Xu Xiuyuan's sugar-coated bullets, and when Pingqiu pressed his beating heart to clarify his thoughts, he would angrily change the subject at Xu Xiuyuan.
But at this time they had already hugged each other and collapsed on the bed, Xu Xiuyuan's knees were pushed into Pingqiu's knee sockets, still tightly clinging to him.Ping Qiu touched his hands on his chest, and suddenly asked: "Did I tell you about Dong Shuang?"
"You said."
"She and her boyfriend have been dating for many years. At first they said they would not marry, and that person agreed. But later he repented, maybe thinking that if he forced Dong Shuang, she would compromise, and Dong Shuang proposed to break up. He Not reconciled, one
Speaking of it, Chu Tiwei is a little strange. She doesn't like to use mobile phones or computers, and she doesn't like to read or write. She only likes TV. She never gets tired of watching it from morning to night, and she can even watch boring sports games without taking her eyes off it.Pingqiu didn't understand her strange habit, so he didn't listen to her persuasion, and simply ignored her, Chu Tiwei watched her TV, and he quietly hid aside and chatted with Xu Xiuyuan who was taking a break from his busy schedule—if that could be called small talk .
In the first two days after the tacit reconciliation, Pingqiu was always a little inexplicably cautious, even if he talked to Xu Xiuyuan through the Internet, he often had to think twice and think twice.As a result, his speech was stuttered, and the two of them were like new friends who met for the first time, and the result of trying to find something to talk about could only be nothing to talk about.Even in the summer vacation of the year Xu Xiuyuan graduated from high school, they hadn't seen each other for several years, no matter how hot they were, they had never experienced such an embarrassing stage. Two sentences.On the contrary, Xu Xiuyuan's video calls every night have never been interrupted. Even if he is dizzy with work, he will still say goodnight to Pingqiu face to face before going to bed.
Two days ago, Pingqiu received a New Year gift from Huazhang.He spent the New Year in his grandfather's hometown this year, and brought some gadgets made by his family at the party. Pingqiu liked it very much, so he asked him to have dinner at the restaurant tonight, and the reason was to thank him for the New Year's gift.It happened that Huazhang was free, and a student was practicing piano at his home. After the end, he went directly to the restaurant and asked where the restaurant was and how to get Pingqiu. Pingqiu said that it was the restaurant where they first met, and declined him Come pick up.
While looking for the storage box beside the bed, Pingqiu vaguely heard a sound in the living room, as if Chu Tiwei was calling him.With a vague reply, he poked his arm into the gap between the wall and the storage box, and after struggling for a long time, he finally fished out the little red gift box.
At this time, there was no movement in the living room, Pingqiu thought it was an auditory hallucination, took off the wet towel to wipe off the dust on his hands, then opened the gift box, inside was a jade plaque with a red string, and a small plastic bag in the interlayer. Inside was a ring.Ping Qiu didn't pay attention to the ring, but touched the texture of the jade, it was cold, so before putting it on, he warmed the jade with the palm of his hand, then untied the red string, and put the jade on his chest.
Putting on the attire prepared for the appointment, seeing that the time is a little tight, Ping Qiu hurried out, only to see Chu Tiwei standing by the sofa with his hands on his hips.
Seeing him, Chu Tiwei pointed to the cardboard box in front of him and said, "Someone sent it."
Pingqiu wore a sock on one foot, stood unsteadily, jumped two steps forward, stretched his neck and asked, "Who?"
"The last name is Xu."
"...Xiu Yuan?"
"His brother. The one who lent me money."
"Xu Ruiyang?" Ping Qiu was surprised, "He just came? Why didn't he call me?"
"Not him, the one with the hat."
The one with the hat?Pingqiu wondered: "How long have you been walking?"
"Just now."
Quickly jumping to the window with one leg, Ping Qiu opened the blackout curtain and looked down, and sure enough, he saw Xu Ruiyang's assistant wearing a hat came down the stairs and was trotting into the car.
In the past two years, Xu Ruiyang's career has been going all the way, and he is usually too busy to touch the ground, but whenever he is free, he will find various excuses to find Pingqiu.
He thinks he has made it very clear, now that Pingqiu treats him as an ordinary friend, the reason why he didn't cruelly stop him from outside the house is because there is a previous relationship about Chu Tiwei borrowing money.Knowing that this was Xu Ruiyang's idea, she wanted Ping Qiu to accept his affection, so that Ping Qiu would bow to him in the future.Although this approach is a little despicable, it is the most direct way to kidnap Pingqiu.Ping Qiu felt helpless for Xu Ruiyang's childishness, but he really lost the confidence to kick him out.
During this period, Xu Ruiyang would often give Pingqiu gifts.If he is too busy with work to get away, he will ask his assistant to come to the door.The gifts he gave varied from big to small, once he even stuffed a ring in the gift box and pretended to be careless when asked.Ping Qiu returned the ring, and laughed at him not because he was careless, but because he was too careless.For other gifts, he can still exchange them for equivalent gifts and return them with both hands. He can't afford to pay back a diamond ring, let alone accept it.He is not a bride-to-be who doesn't need a man to hand him a ring.If someone needs it at that time, Ping Qiu said that he would sincerely bless Xu Ruiyang.
As for the gift this time, Xu Ruiyang didn't have time to ask Ping Qiu if he received it until the evening.Pingqiu glanced at it, but didn't rush to reply, instead turned the phone screen upside down on the table, and looked up at Huazhang who was hastily seated.
"Sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road," Hua Zhang sat down and looked around, "Have you ordered food yet?"
"You said to light it first, I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered it as it was when we first met. You don't mind?"
"It doesn't matter, I'm not picky eaters."
Huazhang was surprised by Pingqiu's sudden invitation to have dinner together.After all, the presents he gave were just some handmade gifts, and they were not so expensive that Pingqiu should treat them in return, so guessing that Pingqiu had something to say, Huazhang waited for him to speak.
But beyond Huazhang's expectation, even after the meal was over, they chatted about everything, but Pingqiu didn't mention the serious business for a long time.
When the bill was settled after the meal, the waiter pressed the menu on the table, Huazhang was about to pay the bill, but Pingqiu stopped him and said: "The first time is your treat, let me have this meal today."
"It's okay," Hua Zhang didn't care, "It's just a meal, please treat me next time."
"Just this time," Ping Qiu insisted, "I should pay you back."
Dazed for a moment, Huazhang realized that Pingqiu's stubbornness at this time seemed unreasonable.But when his gaze met his, Pingqiu's eyes were firm and he didn't dodge the slightest bit, but Huazhang's little suspicion in his heart was confirmed in an instant.
He blinked, understood the deep meaning of Pingqiu's words, couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, motioned the waiter to turn to Pingqiu, and acquiesced to Pingqiu's opinion - this meal was considered to be the end of their relationship. A fair and perfect bill.
Leaving his seat after dinner, Huazhang went out first, stopped after walking for a while, Pingqiu stopped after him, and the two faced each other.
"Since the relationship has returned to the safety line," Huazhang said, "do you want to give me a reason?"
"I have someone I like." Ping Qiu confessed.
"Oh, guessed it. Before me or after? I care more about that."
"... is someone I've always liked," Ping Qiu felt apologetic, "I should have told you, but I didn't even figure it out myself some time ago, so I wasn't honest with you, I hope you don't get angry."
"Are you sure about the relationship?"
"Ah."
"That's not bad, congratulations," Huazhang said again, "but you are too serious. I invited you to dinner when we met for the first time, but this time I refused, and I still have to choose the same restaurant and order the same dishes. Is it too careful to give it back to me exactly as it is?"
"Isn't that good? With a fair premise, getting along with each other will be much more comfortable in the future."
"With a friend like me, your incumbent won't mind?"
"No, he's very good now."
As if overwhelmed by the obvious joy on Pingqiu's face, Huazhang stared at him curiously, smiling a little playfully.Ping Qiu was embarrassed by his stare, lowered his head to avoid sight, the two walked together for a certain distance, and parted at the intersection.
"In the future, if you have a chance, you can bring your boyfriend over and play with us," Huazhang suggested, "you can rest assured that my friends are all decent people, they won't spoil anyone, and they play normally. But the premise It is you who should confess to him my previous relationship with you, although there is no romantic atmosphere, it is better to be honest when dealing with feelings."
"Okay, I remember."
"Then I'm leaving, see you again by chance?"
"Goodbye."
Pingqiu waved his hand, watching Huazhang trot to the sidewalk, just happened to be a green light, he walked very fast without turning his head.
With Huazhang cutting off any possibility of the future openly and honestly, Pingqiu's mood can't be called pity or guilt, but thinking of Liu Chenchen, he will be a little distressed, and he hasn't figured out how to explain it to her.
But he didn't expect Liu Chenchen's news to be so well-informed. Pingqiu had dinner with Huazhang that night, and she came to the door the next evening, asking if Pingqiu had been pestered again recently.In her eyes, Pingqiu's denial meant that he was forced by his ex without realizing it, she wished she could hold Pingqiu's shoulder and shake him awake, as if she was saving a lost girl.
Pingqiu guessed that in Liu Chenchen's impression, Xu Xiuyuan's image was probably linked to some vicious gangsters, and he couldn't help admiring her rich imagination, and being filled with righteous indignation for him was enough righteousness, but more of it was helpless, so he tried his best to get Xu Xiuyuan out of the way. She was removed from the "wicked person" list.
"He is not as bad as you imagined, we would break up at that time, and he and I both had problems." Ping Qiu said.
"Even if there is a reason, the problem must be on him." Liu Chenchen restrained his anger, crossed his legs and crossed his arms, "I have known you for at least five or six years, and we have been colleagues for two or three years. What is your temper?" I know, it’s just to be submissive, abuse a good person, others tell you to go east, can you go west? If you were so good, you would have been promoted to be the vice principal in our unit back then.”
"It's not that exaggerated," Ping Qiu said with a smile, "I'm not a bad person, it's just that sometimes other people's suggestions are more correct, and if someone needs help, it's not a big deal."
"I'm afraid you'll be cheated. That younger brother of yours doesn't seem like a good deal at first glance. If you break up once, you may break up a second time. If your problems have reached the point of breaking up, it means that the problem is not so easy to solve. .right?"
"...I don't know what to say."
"Is it that shameful? Forget it, don't say it if you don't want to."
"I'm not trying to hide it from you."
"I know," Liu Chenchen grabbed Pingqiu's shoulder and said earnestly, "I only advise you this time, I shouldn't get involved in this kind of matter, but I don't trust you, I'm afraid you trust people too easily , What if you are cheated again this time? Philosophers say that you can’t step into the same river twice. How can you be sure that the problem that caused you to break up for the first time has been solved and will not affect you in the future? Or him? If I'm right, the problem has not been solved at all, if you continue like this, isn't it a waste of time and emotion? "
Suddenly hit by Liu Chenchen's question, Pingqiu opened his mouth to refute, but remained silent because he had nothing to say.
It is true that the questions raised by Liu Chenchen really hit the point.As friends, Chu Tiwei would not make any suggestions on Pingqiu's private life, let alone point fingers, only Liu Chenchen was always outspoken, but he was able to speak clearly, forcing Pingqiu to wake up suddenly from the joy of regaining what was lost.
For a long time, the past with Xu Xiuyuan seemed to be Pingqiu's secret private possession.He never thought that he could share the past with a third party. Even if he wanted to talk, it was always difficult to explain clearly, and it was difficult to continue the conversation at the beginning.
But Pingqiu had to admit that Liu Chenchen really hit the nail on the head - even though he could understand and accept Xu Xiuyuan's difficulties, and was willing to work hard to get closer to him for his expectations, sweet words were always liked, but sugar-coated things were not always sweet Ping Qiu couldn't deny that he was always afraid of Xu Xiangnan.
As Xu Xiuyuan said, he is an adult, and although he is unwilling, he is learning to be a real adult, so he needs to regain his rights and independence.But at the same time, as a son of man, it is impossible for him to throw away his parents who have raised him for nearly 20 years like throwing away a piece of clothing. Pingqiu may not be the most important conflict between him and his mother Xu Xiangnan, but as a mother-child war two years ago The fuse of the outbreak, Ping Qiu does not want to repeat the same mistakes, let alone Xu Xiuyuan's regrets in the future.
On New Year's Eve, Ping Qiuli should have a very appropriate time to test Xu Xiuyuan's relationship with Xu Xiangnan's mother and child in the past two years, but he was kidnapped by emotions at that time, and he couldn't spare any attention to care about these details. Then he remembered, On the contrary, it was difficult to speak.
Received a video invitation at night, Pingqiu and Chu Tiwei greeted each other, and went back to the room with their mobile phones in their arms.When he touched his fingers while pulling the curtains, he gasped in pain. He saw that he had bitten his fingernails bald because of his irritability earlier, and some blood was coming out between the nails.He hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth and sucked off the blood beads. Just when the video was connected, Xu Xiuyuan showed his face, wearing glasses, and he was still in the company in the background.
"Go home?" Ping Qiu asked.
"Just about to go back," Xu Xiuyuan put his phone on the table, took two steps back, and took off the coat hanging on the back of the chair, "And you, have you eaten yet?"
"It's already nine o'clock, how could it be possible that you haven't eaten yet. Haven't you eaten yet? You haven't eaten lunch yet?"
"forgotten."
He will forget when he eats and sleeps, but he only remembers the video at nine o'clock as agreed, so Ping Qiu really doesn't know what to say about him.
Fortunately, Xu Xiuyuan’s single apartment for internship is near the company. It takes about 10 minutes to walk. When he gets home, he cooks instant noodles casually, works overtime while eating, and diverts his attention from time to time. The newly prepared purchase list after two years does not disturb each other, but it is very harmonious.
Sometimes chatting, Xu Xiuyuan would explain to Pingqiu that he was able to arrange to rent this single apartment up to now, in fact it was thanks to He Xiaoxian's blessing.
At that time, He Xiaoxian and Yuan Feng pushed and pulled each other for nearly two and a half years before confirming their relationship. Let’s not talk about the twists and turns in the middle. In short, the two of them had a relationship. Xu Xiuyuan among them all benefited - in the final analysis, without Pingqiu's personality, He Xiaoxian might not have taken the fledgling Xu Xiuyuan seriously.
In the second semester of his sophomore year, Xu Xiuyuan accidentally learned of Yuan Feng's identity.It is said that people go to high places. At that time, he had already set his eyes on this fat sheep, so he recommended himself many times in his junior year, and his resume was filled to the brim, but Yuan Feng only regarded him as a boy with eyes above his head, He didn't pay attention to it at all, and made Xu Xiuyuan worthless several times, and then simply turned him away.
And He Xiaoxian was that turning point.He solved Xu Xiuyuan's obstacles for several months with a few words, Xu Xiuyuan thanked him for his kindness, but He Xiaoxian waved his hand, despising that this high-risk job that Xu Xiuyuan will spend the next few years investing in is a child's playhouse.He Xiaoxian was used to being rich since he was a child, money is not money, and he was able to help Xu Xiuyuan purely for Pingqiu's sake.
Speaking of this, Xu Xiuyuan smiled suddenly: "He's actually very clever, isn't he? I used to say that he was a peacock without hair, but now that I think about it, I might have said something wrong."
"He helped you so much. Have you ever thanked him? After all, your business has nothing to do with him. He is willing to help you. You must thank him."
"Listen to you. Find a chance and give him a gift? But he probably doesn't like ordinary gifts, and he's not in the country all year round, so no one can find him," Xu Xiuyuan had a whim, "It's better to wait for me this summer. After graduation, let's fly to him and accompany you on vacation?"
"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to ask you, are you not going to continue studying?"
"...Isn't studying to make money? Isn't it good now? With money in hand, at least freedom."
"I hope you can continue to study," Pingqiu said seriously, "You are a good seed for studying, don't force yourself to do something that makes you unhappy, you can relax and study hard."
"Don't talk about this," Xu Xiuyuan changed the subject, "Promise me, this summer vacation?"
"You're obviously talking about them, why are you talking about me?"
"Don't you want to go? I really want to, it's best just the two of us."
"Let's talk about it, I'm not sure yet," Ping Qiu's heart was pounding, "There will be a chance."
Time flies, seeing that the Spring Festival holiday is coming to an end, Chu Tiwei returns to Beijing the day after tomorrow, and agrees that Pingqiu will accompany her to go shopping in the city for a day.
At the end of the day, the two of them walked with weak legs.In the evening, Pingqiu received an invitation from Shao Dongshuang in the work group to organize a game, saying that she had won a lottery during the Spring Festival, and she had won a chafing dish.
In a blink of an eye, Ping Qiu, Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling's replies have already caught up, and they are gearing up to come to the door tomorrow.Xi Youwen will show up later, but it's a pity that she will go back to her hometown during the Chinese New Year, and she won't be able to make it back tomorrow.Chen Xiaoyi hurriedly said it was a pity, the four girls chatted in full swing.
Until Xu Miaoling interjected to ask if the boss was coming, Shao Dongshuang quickly circled Cheng Zinong, a silent member of the group.Pingqiu's sentence "temporarily not sure" got stuck in the middle.Half a minute later, Shao Dongshuang withdrew the message.
Almost at the same time, the background of the work group showed that Cheng Zinong had withdrawn from the group chat.Ping Qiu was taken aback for a moment, and then received a private chat from Cheng Zinong.His tone was very normal, explaining that he quit the work group because he had decided not to do part-time jobs anymore, it would not be good to continue to stay in the group of colleagues under such circumstances, there was no other reason, I hope Pingqiu understands.
They are all polite words, the real reason is well known to each other, Pingqiu also imitated him, just say yes, I know.
With Cheng Zinong interrupted, Ping Qiu's refusal seemed a little unreasonable.He hesitated for a while, and replied nonchalantly in the work group: If you don't mind adding me as a man, I'll do it.
Chen Xiaoyi typed quickly: "Call my sister."
Pingqiu: Wei Wei?
Chen Xiaoyi: It's her, it's her, she's still here, let her come, definitely, definitely, definitely!
Doubting when she and Chu Tiwei established a deep friendship, Ping Qiu turned his head and asked, Chu Tiwei's eyes were busy watching TV, and he shook his head: "I don't know."
"It was the little sister who came to our house on the night of the New Year's Eve dinner, with double ponytails."
"Oh." Remembered.
"They all want you to go together tomorrow, do you want to go, come with me."
"Don't go."
"If you don't go, I'm not at home. No one cooks at home."
"……go."
"I know you." Ping Qiu laughed.
According to the agreement, Ping Qiu and Chu Tiwei waited for the others at the intersection in front of the fish market. Ten minutes later, Xu Miaoling and Chen Xiaoyi ran across the zebra crossing holding hands.In the severe cold of winter, it is better for Xu Miaoling to wrap her head to toe in a long coat. Chen Xiaoyi is very stinky, dressed in fancy clothes, the point is that the clothes are thin, with a skirt underneath. No thick stockings were worn.
Xu Miaoling made a fuss, and Chen Xiaoyi blushed so angry that she wanted to hit her.Xu Miaoling rushed behind Pingqiu in two steps, and then ran to Chu Tiwei's side. At this time, Chen Xiaoyi, who was originally baring her teeth and claws, seemed to be suddenly tapped on the Ya acupuncture point. Her face was still red, but she raised her legs together, twisted her waist, and snorted Walked forward with a sound, and grabbed Pingqiu's arm.
Shao Dongshuang was waiting nearby, and saw the four of them walking through the noisy fish market from a distance. She waved her hand, followed the lead into the vegetable market, and began to pick goods according to everyone's preferences on the list.
Not long after, only the host Shao Dongshuang and Pingqiu were left to choose the ingredients.At first Chu Tiwei followed Pingqiu, but for some reason, Xu Miaoling held her arm and pulled her behind, attracting Chen Xiaoyi. Stay where you are.
Afraid of time constraints, Shao Dongshuang tore the menu into two halves, and bought in two ways at the Autumnal Equinox.
Pingqiu walked along the vegetable market all the way to the exit, bought [-] according to the menu, and his hands were full.While lowering his head to check, he suddenly heard someone screaming not far ahead. He looked up and saw a girl in the corner dragged out by a man covering her mouth. The man held a knife in his hand, and the woman who was strangled by him was wearing a white dress. down jacket.
Immediately, there was a buzzing in his ears, Ping Qiu didn't have time to think, dropped everything, and then rushed forward through the crowd.He grabbed Shao Dongshuang's coat and tried to pull her back.
Shao Dongshuang was so frightened that she lost her mind at this moment, she screamed and called for help, thrust her elbow back desperately, and struggled wildly like a fish jumping on a chopping board.It's just that the man who dragged her was terribly strong, Ping Qiu tried to save her, but tried hard to break the man's hand around her throat, but was hit by the man's elbow on the side of the face.
Combined with the coldness and the numbness caused by desperation, Pingqiu couldn't feel the slightest pain.Under the entanglement of the three, the man tripped and Shao Dongshuang fell to the ground.Her eyes were blurred, and she subconsciously crawled forward with her hands and feet. She caught a glimpse of the light out of the corner of her eye, but she had no time to react, and watched as the dagger was about to pierce her lower abdomen.
At this time, a force suddenly pushed her arm, and the moment she fell down again, she watched the unstoppable dagger cut open Pingqiu's clothes.Soon, the blood was spreading, Ping Qiu grabbed Shao Dongshuang by the back collar, and pulled her back forcefully.
Seeing that the man was about to stab Shao Dongshuang again with the second knife, Ping Qiu instinctively blocked it, then heard a low shout, and a strong wind of his legs hit him - the man was suddenly attacked, first the hand holding the knife was kicked hard, and the dagger It fell to the ground with a clang, and was kicked on the side of the waist.He staggered sideways, and then the neck, the opponent's kick made his mouth burst into blood, and in a blink of an eye, he lost his center of gravity and fell to the slippery tile wall on one side.
The three kicks made the man unable to fight back, Chu Ti's face sank like water, his two fists were clenched, and he wanted to move forward as if he didn't think it was enough.Xu Miaoling, who was stunned, hurriedly stopped her, fearing that she would use too much force for a while, and then it would be considered an over-defense, so she whispered to her to see Pingqiu and Shao Dongshuang's injuries first.
When Shao Dongshuang was being dragged by the man, his down jacket rubbed against the muddy water at the entrance of the vegetable market, his collar was crooked, and he was in a mess.Fortunately, the injury was not serious. Apart from the strangle marks on her neck, she was more frightened. She was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a while, tears streaming down her face.
On the other hand, Ping Qiu's injury was much more serious, the sleeve of his sweater was torn, his forearm was cut with a long cut by the dagger, and a large stream of blood trickled down his forearm, staining the blood on his palm.Putting his hands behind his back, Ping Qiu first asked Shao Dongshuang if he was okay, seeing her crying and shaking her head, he let out a sigh of relief, stretched out his right arm to check the injury.The pain came late, and he was too painful to move, but his fingers were twitching in stress.
Some people reported to the police, and the police station was just across the intersection from the vegetable market, and the police came very quickly.
Pingqiu simply took notes and then walked to the side, Chu Tiwei washed his wound with mineral water, the knife cut was a bit deep, she didn't have tools at hand and couldn't bandage it, she wanted to take Pingqiu to the hospital.
The police took a look at his injuries, took photos, and asked Pingqiu to leave his phone number before leaving, and then bring the hospital's list.Pingqiu couldn't write, and Chu Tiwei helped. Seeing Shao Dongshuang calm down, but still trembling, he reminded Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling: "If you have any trouble, please call me."
Chen Xiaoyi and Xu Miaoling nodded hurriedly, not daring to look at his bloody arm.
After Pingqiu finished bandaging the wound and left the hospital, Shao Dongshuang's side also temporarily came to an end.
Xu Miaoling relayed the general situation to Pingqiu. It turned out that the man who intended to commit the murder was Shao Dongshuang's ex-boyfriend. The two had been in love for eight years. They were middle and high school classmates. He also agreed, but he regretted it after a few days, and couldn't pester Shao Dongshuang, so he squatted downstairs in her house for a few days, finally waiting for her to go out, and came to the neighborhood, only to see her and Ping Qiu laughing and talking together to buy vegetables together, Finally, his behavior got out of control, intending to quietly drag Shao Dongshuang away.
The whole thing is extremely absurd, Pingqiu worries that Shao Dongshuang will leave a shadow because of it.Xu Miaoling said that this incident was a big one. Shao Dongshuang's parents and the man's parents were in a dispute at the police station. Shao Dongshuang refused to let go and insisted on appealing.The man's parents tearfully begged her to let her go, but Shao Dongshuang remained unmoved.
He applauded her in his heart, and Pingqiu heard that Shao Dongshuang was worried about other accidents and planned to move back to his parents' house, so he simply approved her a week's leave.
Because of her arm injury, it's inconvenient to do things. With Chu Tiwei here, she can at least help Pingqiu get some things or do some small things.But when Chu Ti left slightly the next day, difficulties appeared everywhere in life: once again subconsciously holding a water glass with his right hand, with a shake of his hand, hot water spilled over Ping Qiu's chest.He was very distressed: If he knew it earlier, he would be a left-hander like Xu Xiuyuan.
However, Ping Qiu did not tell Xu Xiuyuan about the injury for the time being.During the fixed video time every night, he intentionally hid his arms under the quilt, only his head was exposed, and he got very close to the camera. Xu Xiuyuan seemed to be walking on the screen, but he deliberately covered the camera with his chest tightly, and asked Pingqiu can't guess where he is.
After taking the medicine, Pingqiu felt a little sleepy, and responded to Xu Xiuyuan one after another.Without saying a few words, he started to yawn, and forced his eyelids to answer Xu Xiuyuan. In fact, he didn't mean what he said, and his words were sticky, and his eyes were closed after a while.
At twelve o'clock at night, Xu Xiuyuan got off the subway, crossed the road, entered the tube building, took out the key from his pocket to open the door, the room was pitch black, only the soft warm light radiated from under the bedroom door.
Taking off his coat in the entrance, throwing the sofa casually, Xu Xiuyuan walked into the bedroom barefoot, and saw that the bed was lit with a human figure bulging under the quilt.He first knelt on the bed with his left knee bent, and slowly crawled to the head of the bed. At the same time, he touched the quilt with his left hand, and what he encountered were Pingqiu's gray pajama pants. It will disperse automatically when you pull it.Then there was the hem of the pajamas, a pure white long-sleeved piece, which had been washed too many times, and the hem was deformed, as if a big hole had leaked out, allowing Xu Xiuyuan to reach in and caress Pingqiu's flat waist.
While the dream was getting tense, Pingqiu inexplicably dreamed that he was a child held by his parents' arms, and the opposite side was a nurse who was preparing injection needles. Before his arms were touched, he trembled in fear, and ran out with tears, saying His words seemed to reverse his identity, he was actually boasting that he had done a good job, don't be afraid, the injection was very fast, and it didn't hurt at all.
He vaguely heard Ping Qiu talking in his sleep, most of them were vaguely understood, but he could hear "injection" clearly.
Xu Xiuyuan was pressing on Pingqiu's body, and had already inserted his hands into the heels of his legs. Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing. At the same time, he slightly exerted force on his hands, and whispered to persuade: "Open your legs, little nurse."
Ping Qiu fell into a drowsy sleep, unable to resist.His legs were broken off, and the pajama pants were pulled up to the heels of his legs, like a cold snake crawling around his calf and hissing towards him.As she climbed higher and higher, she seemed to get between her legs. She Xinzi breathed out, but it was hot like lava.Pingqiu was trembling in his dream, he twisted his waist and abdomen and wanted to run up, but unexpectedly the snake continued to move forward, only stayed in his lower abdomen for a short time, then crawled into his clothes, licked his lower abdomen, and then his chest.
The wet, sticky and numb touch made Pingqiu terrified even in his dreams, so he struggled to wake up, panting and hugged Xu Xiuyuan's head which was stuck in his collar.Pingqiu told him to come out, but Xu Xiuyuan continued to lick him without hesitation, not forgetting to stretch out his hand to make trouble between Pingqiu's legs.Ping Qiu was so stimulated that his face flushed, and he unconsciously held his finger in his mouth, but the other hand, which was originally pushing Xu Xiuyuan away, turned back and hugged Xu Xiuyuan's neck instead, as if encouraging him not to stop.
Both were excited, embracing Dian Luan Dian Feng Feng, so dizzy.In the end Ping Qiufu lay on the bed panting again and again, with his long sleeves rolled up around his neck, unable to cover the bite marks and hickey marks on his shoulders and back.The stimulation of pleasure seemed to numb the pain in his right arm, Pingqiu tried to prop up his body, but fell back to the original position due to exhaustion.
Xu Xiu went back and forth, fetched wet wipes from the living room, wiped Pingqiu's body, and helped him take off the long-sleeved hoodie, only to find that Pingqiu's arms were wrapped in thick bandages.
Pingqiu explained the cause of the injury, and didn't listen to Xu Xiuyuan's answer for a long time. He raised his head and looked back with great effort, only to see Xu Xiuyuan suddenly lowered his head and kissed his back.
Sometimes visual stimuli are more trembling than tactile sensations. Ping Qiu grasped the quilt tightly and felt Xu Xiuyuan slapping his buttocks hard. He was excited and ashamed. When Xu Xiuyuan's fingers slipped and touched his spine, he cried out sensitively and hurriedly Use "bathing" as an excuse to prevent Xu Xiuyuan from getting interested again.
There is only a shower in the house, and Pingqiu stands behind the glass door, facing the tiled wall, his naked body is so tense that he can't help but hold his chest in his mouth slightly, and his legs are also clamped tightly.
But he didn't dare to move. Behind him was Xu Xiuyuan adjusting the water temperature of the shower head.Pingqiu couldn't see him, but he could feel his gaze fixed on his back all the time. He even reached out his hand to Pingqiu's neck, and the back of his hand gently stroked Pingqiu's side face, and touched his chest that fell on his chest. Jade plaque.Like a tamed beast, Pingqiu involuntarily rubbed his cheek against the back of his hand.
When the water temperature was just right and the hot water hit Pingqiu's back, Xu Xiuyuan hugged him from behind, while reminding him to straighten his right arm, not to be drenched in water, while making irresistible movements, he opened Pingqiu's shy body with his hands.
After washing and returning to the bed, Xu Xiuyuan's upper body was bare, pressed against Pingqiu's chest, and gently and slowly stroked his injured right arm: "Next time you encounter this situation, you should protect yourself first."
Pingqiu was refreshed all over, yawned and replied: "It's an emergency, I don't have time to think about it."
"It never occurred to you that I would be worried?"
"I know, but at that time, if I didn't help, I was afraid that Dongshuang would get hurt." Ping Qiu stroked Xu Xiuyuan's wet hair, "If it was you, you would not help if you encountered such a situation. ?"
"If you were there, I would."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"If you are present, you will want to save people, but the result is like this," Xu Xiuyuan gestured to his right arm, "so I will help instead of you. If you are not present, I will weigh the situation and not be as impulsive as you."
"This situation is about a human life, how could it be impulsive?"
"But what does that have to do with me?"
Ping Qiu was taken aback, pushed Xu Xiuyuan away, and sat up with difficulty with one hand: "You shouldn't think so. Could it be that your kindness is all because of me, and you did it on purpose to show me? How is it possible, isn't it Is it too indifferent?"
"If your kindness requires you to act bravely, in exchange for your own injury, then I would rather you be indifferent." Xu Xiuyuan looked directly at Pingqiu, "I never care what others think of me, and I don't want you to take Your own life is exchanged for someone else's. Have you ever thought about it, if the knife is stabbed sideways and hurts other organs, what are you going to pay me? I can't stand any accidents, you know .”
"...I didn't think that much at the time."
"But if it were me, I wouldn't rush to help when I'm not sure, I would consider all the consequences first," Xu Xiuyuan held Pingqiu's back, "I don't expect you to become like me, you probably also despise it I'm too indifferent. There's only one thing, if you encounter this kind of situation in the future, can you think about me before making a decision? "
The accusation of Xu Xiuyuan's indifference was on his lips, but Pingqiu seemed to be hit on the head by his heavy concern, he was dumb, as if being strangled by the throat, unable to say a word.
What else can you reprimand Xu Xiuyuan, reprimand him for being too cautious and heartless, so that he appears too cold and arrogant, or blame him for taking Ping Qiu too seriously, and even expecting Ping Qiu to learn the most basic prudence and self-defense for him, At least you don't have to trade your own safety with others.
"Sometimes, I want you to be more selfish." Xu Xiuyuan tugged on Pingqiu's neckline, "Tell me what you like to hear, maybe I have always loved you more than you imagined."
He would always be dazzled by Xu Xiuyuan's sugar-coated bullets, and when Pingqiu pressed his beating heart to clarify his thoughts, he would angrily change the subject at Xu Xiuyuan.
But at this time they had already hugged each other and collapsed on the bed, Xu Xiuyuan's knees were pushed into Pingqiu's knee sockets, still tightly clinging to him.Ping Qiu touched his hands on his chest, and suddenly asked: "Did I tell you about Dong Shuang?"
"You said."
"She and her boyfriend have been dating for many years. At first they said they would not marry, and that person agreed. But later he repented, maybe thinking that if he forced Dong Shuang, she would compromise, and Dong Shuang proposed to break up. He Not reconciled, one
