Hexagram 20 - Chapter 2
06:12PM
"Buzz-!"
"You have a text message."
Peter reminded Ruth after glancing at the mobile phone with the screen on which was in Ruth's hand.
"Harry's? Why is he looking for you? Cough..."
When other people texted Ruth, Peter never asked, even if he saw it, he would not remind Ruth.But since he dated Ruth, Peter seemed to be a different person. As long as Harry sent Ruth a text message, he would be very concerned.
In order to be able to know the content of the text message in advance, Peter will deliberately remind Ruth to turn on the phone every time, even though Ruth is not very interested in Harry's letter.
[Harry: Are you dating Peter? ]
Being stared at nervously and expectantly by the boy opposite, even though Hei Ruth didn't want to look at it, she still had to pick up the phone.But when she just opened the text message and checked the content, she turned off the phone again.
"It's nothing, he said the weather was fine today, and asked if we had dinner."
Hei Ruth messed up the content of a text message. At first she felt that she was messing up too much and obviously planned to change her words, but when she looked up and saw that the boy's concerned eyes on the opposite side changed to 'resolved', she closed and opened it again. Mouth.
'No need, there is really no need to be tempted to talk to such a person. '
She lowered her head and picked up a piece of fried fish and put it in her mouth.
This is the seventh day she and Peter were together. Although the opportunity to force Peter to confess was because she took advantage of Harry, after interacting with Peter, it was said that Hei Ruth, who absolutely did not care about what anyone other than Ruth thought, Nor had he been able to tell Harry the news frankly.
Peter didn't either, it wasn't that Peter didn't want to talk about it, but that Harry never brought up this topic with Peter, whether it was in front of the two of them, or in a private message with Peter.
As long as Harry gave Peter a chance to tell the relationship between the two, Peter would definitely use that opportunity to tell the full story of his relationship with Ruth.
But Harry didn't give him such a chance, and seemed to be deliberately avoiding such a chance.
—he didn't seem to want to mention anything about Ruth to Peter.
"Hasn't he noticed us..." Peter raised his head and glanced at Uncle Parker who was wearing glasses and reading the newspaper, then stuffed a big mouthful of mashed potatoes into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Why do you only send us The information was not sent to me."
06: 14PM
"Buzz-!"
Before she could put the phone back on the table, the screen turned on again, and she moved the phone back to her eyes.
"He texted you again?"
Peter asked, trying to stretch his neck to look at Ruth's erected mobile phone sitting across from him.
"It's not Harry, it's Gwen."
After glancing at the sender, Black Ruth shook her head and answered Peter.After hearing the name of 'Gwen', Peter immediately retracted his neck into the collar of the standing plaid shirt, and lowered his head.
Only the freckles on the bridge of his nose can be seen.
[Gwen: Will you come to the party tonight, Ruth?You haven't replied to my message for a long time. ]
……
Since Herce's first day at school, she hasn't spoken to Gwen, and every time Gwen wants to say hello to her, she will deliberately change the subject, or say 'sorry, something happened suddenly' and run away.
She doesn't like Gwen, Gwen is too good to be like a real person, and it will bring her a strong sense of guilt.
Especially after Peter and Gwen clarified the 'emotional problems', she didn't want to see Gwen even more. Black Ruth hated everything that would make her feel guilty.
"Gwen's house has a party tonight, Peter, will you go?"
Although she didn't intend to reply to Gwen's message, Black Ruth didn't put down her phone. She asked Peter on the opposite side pretending to be casual.
While waiting for Peter's reply, she changed from holding the phone in her palm to pinching the corner of the phone with her index finger and thumb, dangling it between her fingertips.
"go……"
When Gwen Peter was mentioned, he became a little cautious. He quickly picked up the glass on the side table and drank a few mouthfuls of water, swallowed all the mashed potatoes in his mouth, and vigilantly observed the expression of Ruth sitting opposite.
"I promised Gwen yesterday. I planned to tell you when school was over, but Gwen said that she would invite you personally."
Luckily, Ruth looked perfectly normal.
"Oh……"
Hei Ruth nodded. Apart from pinching the mobile phone with her fingers and turning it a few times between her fingers, there was no other strange reaction. She continued to eat fried fish without losing her appetite.
Seeing this, Peter was also slightly relieved, and took the last piece of pizza on the table with his hand, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
——Although he explained to Ruth all the changes in his relationship with Gwen on the night of the confession, and gave her the phone so that she could read all the text messages and chat records on social software.
But when encountering things and topics related to Gwen, Ruth's behavior will be very abnormal.
After suffering several losses in a row this week, Peter had to face Ruth with 12 points of energy when he mentioned 'Gwen'.Peter's desire to survive told him that the topic just now was a very terrible topic.
But Ruth didn't seem to care.
—but that was only Ruth in Peter's eyes.
In fact, Hei Ruth, who didn't seem to care, had already gone round and round several times in her mind.
'Obviously I received the news yesterday, but I didn't tell me, waiting for Gwen to tell me in person.24 hours have passed, the party at seven o'clock has to be there at eight o'clock, but I only have two hours left, let alone pick out clothes, I don't even have time to do my hair. '
'Gwen did it on purpose, it seems that she is not as good as Ruth imagined. '
’ And Peter is stupid too, why is he responding to Gwen before asking me, when did they meet?Before school yesterday...didn't Gwen call Peter to discuss the physics competition the day after tomorrow?Why is it a party invitation? '
Hei Ruth raised her eyes unhappily, and looked at Peter who was sitting across from him.
'He even ate the last slice of pizza!That's something I purposely saved until the end to eat! '
'Peter doesn't like Ruth that much at all! '
After finally smoothing out all the relationships, Hei Ruth chewed and swallowed the remaining fried fish vigorously, and then kicked Peter's calf vigorously with her foot under the table.
06: 20PM
Ignoring his surprised eyes and astonished screams, Hei Ruth jumped off the chair and trot to the kitchen to pester Aunt Mei to act coquettishly.
"Aunt May, Aunt May, there is a party at my classmate's house tonight, Peter and I are going to hang out together, can Aunt May help me with my hairstyle? I am clumsy and can only tie a ponytail, I am not at all as ingenious as Aunt May .”
Run after kicking, the thief is exciting.
Peter, who was left with a confused face, rubbed his legs and wanted to chase after him to explain, but because of the presence of Aunt May in the kitchen and Uncle Parker, who was watching the whole process and laughed so hard that he couldn't even cover the newspaper, he could only Sitting on the chair aggrievedly, rubbing his back, he couldn't help but look at the back of the black-haired girl in the kitchen.
'Didn't she not get angry just now? '
Peter: QAQ
#You never know how much a girl goes through before she gets angry#
**
08: 05PM
Gwen's popularity is very good, from high school to senior year, all the four grades with outstanding abilities—whether social or academic—were invited to the party.
The number of people was so large that it filled her family's villa.
Although the party is scheduled for seven o'clock, no one will be there at seven o'clock, but Ruth and Peter, who arrived at eight o'clock, can hardly find a place to stand in Gwen's house.
Others came earlier than them.
"Hey, here!"
While Ruth and Peter were looking around for a place to stay, Gwen's voice came from not far away.
Hearing the reputation, she saw Gwen wearing a tube top and knee-length skirt with a gray tulle waist. She was standing by the drinks area of the swimming pool and was waving her hands vigorously in the direction of Peter and the others.
"Ruth, Peter, come here."
Standing next to Gwen was Harry in formal attire. The 17-year-old didn't feel out of place after wearing a custom-made suit.On the contrary, the appearance of Harry in a formal suit holding a wine glass in his hand makes it impossible to detect that he is only 17 years old, mature, charming and personable.
The eyes he looked at Ruth were undisguised, filled with admiration and admiration.
Peter definitely noticed the way Harry was looking at Rose, too, because he took Ruth's hand as he looked at them.
"We're late, sorry."
Peter was clearly apologizing to Gwen, but his eyes were fixed on Harry. He picked up a glass from the table that looked similar in color to the one in Gwen's hand, and put it a dozen centimeters in front of his nose, quietly After sniffing it and found that there was indeed no alcohol in it, I handed it to Ruth beside me.
"It's not too late, in fact, they all just arrived." Gwen replied to Peter with a smile, then glanced at Ruth, and after looking at Ruth from head to toe, she praised, "Tonight's Ruth is so pretty."
"Yeah." Harry on the side nodded, agreeing with Gwen, "but not only tonight."
Harry's praise made Peter hold Ruth's hand tightly, and he also said, "Yes, not only tonight."
Peter didn't understand.
——From the moment he saw Harry and Gwen, he never let go of Ruth's hand, although he never found a chance to confess his relationship.
But Peter always felt that he had already expressed the relationship between the two of them so blatantly.
Why is Harry still turning a blind eye?
There seemed to be a silent contest between the two of them unconsciously, one desperately wanted to put the relationship in front of the other, and the other desperately covered his eyes because he was unwilling to face this reality.
And it seemed that both of them were too focused, completely ignoring the two well-dressed girls who could be called the most beautiful tonight, and left them aside.
Ruth, who was the object of competition between them, was fine.
Black Ruth scratched the palm of Peter who was holding her with her left hand, while holding the corner of the wine glass with the other hand, she sipped and punched the edge of the glass with her lips painted with lip gloss, and watched the show.
The phone in her pocket was buzzing again, but once the three people in front of her were eliminated, there was only one person left who could text her.
—Tony Stark.
Regarding the content of Stark's text message, Heluth turned her head a little and knew what the content would be.
—he was supposed to come to tell her about the feedback on the results of the 'Potion Trials'.
So Hei Ruth was not in a hurry to see it.
But Gwen, who was standing on the other side, seemed a little awkward at this moment.
First, when she praised Ruth sincerely and wanted to mend the relationship with Ruth, her good friend and ex-partner denied her compliments, and the well-intentioned compliments turned into ill-considered words.
Hei Ruth looked at Gwen through the wine glass, and found her smile a little embarrassed.
***
09: 30PM
It's a pity that before Heluth could feel the victory, Peter, who was about to dance with her, was called away by Gwen, and he hasn't returned yet.
—and it has been an hour since Peter was called away.
Hei Ruth felt a little annoyed, obviously she was planning to get Peter to like Ruth very much, and then get rid of Peter, which not only helped Ruth realize her wish of "loving Peter", but also helped Ruth, who was broken in love, achieve "stay away from Peter". ' Wish.
It can also help Ruth vent her anger by the way.
But for some reason, after Peter was called away by Gwen, she felt a sour taste from the bottom of her heart, and that taste called 'jealousy' became stronger as time went by.
"You are beautiful tonight."
It seems to be because of Ruth's careful dressing up. Although she is already very beautiful without makeup, Ruth seems to be a different person after dressing up, she is completely childish.She no longer looks so innocent and cute as usual, and she reveals a breathtaking charm from inside and outside.
Especially her eyes.
Harry, who is a social expert, seemed to be unable to find a topic at this time. He stood beside Ruth for an hour. After three times of changing songs and failing to invite dances, he expressed such emotion again.
[You are jealous, even though you said you hate people like Peter, but a week later, you still fell in love with Peter hopelessly.Because you are also a part of Ruth, and no matter how different you are, you can't change the liking for it. ]
At this time, "that guy" was also talking to Hei Ruth, no matter how hard Hei Ruth tried to suppress her, she would seize every opportunity to emerge from various cracks, and see the needle as if she could not be killed.
"To shut up!"
Black Ruth growled angrily.
Not only did 'that guy' seem to be really frightened by her, and he didn't make any noise anymore, even Harry, who was standing by the side, was frightened by her.
"Sorry, I know you may not be in a good mood."
Ruth was looking down at her mobile phone to edit text messages, looking at her drooping eyebrows, Harry swallowed involuntarily at his Adam's apple.
"But you can tell me what is bothering you, and I will do my best to help you."
He approached Ruth with a wine glass, his voice full of strong bewitching meaning.
"Whether it's money... or, emotionally..."
Hei Ruth kept her head down and replied to Tony's text messages. She didn't realize that in just a few words, Harry had invaded her intimate distance.In fact, whenever she looked up, her small, erect nose knocked Harry's chest down.
But she didn't.
In order to quickly drive Peter out of her mind, Black Ruth decided to discuss with Tony about the potion. She was still trying her best to recommend the 'love potion' to him. After all, she had brewed a full potion. bottle, but for a whole week, she only used one drop.
—and that drop ended up in the trash with the waffles.
But Hei Ruth, who originally went to sell the potion with Tony to avoid Peter, thought about why she brewed the "love potion" and why she couldn't use it at all, but she missed Peter even more.
He was like a disturbing fly, buzzing around her ears non-stop.
"understood……"
Black Ruth answered Harry perfunctorily, although she didn't catch a word at all.
"boom--!"
Just as she was editing the text message recommending 'Love Potion' and was about to press the 'send button', there was an explosion sound in the distance.And this text message about the 'love potion' was not sent out again because of Ruth's hand shaking.
"Shit!"
This is the first time she swears.
****
10: 05PM
"Isn't Gwen's dress beautiful tonight?"
After Peter was called away by Gwen at 08:30, he didn't come back panting until almost ten o'clock when the two agreed to leave.
Although, Peter explained to Ruth for a long time that he had been away for so long just now, and he was not with Gwen at all, but found someone trading dangerous weapons in the distance of Gwen's house.
Instead of talking about love with the ambiguous object, he went to fight for justice.
But Ruth didn't listen to Peter's explanation at all.
Her complexion looked terrible, and she stomped her feet to force Peter to carry her back.
[Today is the first time I wear high heels and my feet hurt. ]
Ruth explained it this way.
"...It's not bad."
Although Peter hesitated at that time, he still carried Ruth, who was playing a little girl, in front of everyone, and refused Harry's kindness to drive them back.
Since Ruth said, "You have to walk slowly, her feet hurt and her stomach is uncomfortable, so you are not allowed to use spider silk", every step of Peter's footsteps is light and steady, for fear of bumping the black hair on his back. hair girl.
He focused on the road in front of him.
Although Peter can multitask, he really can't think of what clothes Gwen is wearing tonight.
"You are so perfunctory!"
Ruth behind her snorted dissatisfied.
"real……"
Peter replied helplessly, and then he seemed to think that his answer did not sound out of his mind, so he added in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Although I don't remember what she is wearing tonight, I am sure Not as good-looking as you."
After adding the second half of the sentence, Peter heard the girl's chuckle, and she seemed very satisfied with his answer.
"Are you angry that I asked you to come back with my back in front of so many people tonight?"
she asked.
Obviously, the wine she drank could only smell the sweetness of apples, without any alcohol taste, but Peter always felt that her voice was a little hoarse, as if she was drunk.
Even when Ruth asked, he said something here and there, so that he didn't understand what Ruth wanted to ask at all.
"not angry."
Peter replied without thinking.
This is the truth, although I was a little embarrassed at the beginning, but seeing Ruth pouted her moist red lips and opened her hands to him, with a look of "I won't leave if you don't hug me", it was so cute He is going crazy.
When he heard Harry 'relieve' him and asked if he wanted to take his car, Peter picked up Ruth almost immediately in the next second.
Due to the sudden discovery of the dangerous person, he had already left Ruth and Harry alone all night, so he didn't want to give Harry another chance to get along with Ruth.
……
Peter thought that after hearing his decisive answer, the girl would continue to smile at him with satisfaction, and then ask some other weird questions, but she didn't.
She was suddenly silent behind her, and Peter could only hear her breathing.Peter, who didn't get a reply, suddenly began to hesitate whether his answer just now was correct, and he began to panic.
Just when he was about to stop and turn around to ask Ruth, the sweet smell of apples lingered in his nose again.
"You really like Ruth..."
The girl rested her head on his shoulder and whispered into Peter's ear.
For some reason, when she asked such straightforward words, Ruth's tone was not as shy as in the past, nor as coquettish as in recent days, but mixed with a faint emotion.
As if lamenting about other people's affairs, she didn't even use 'I', but used the name 'Ruth'.
"Yes, I have liked Ruth since a long time ago."
Peter chuckled, this was the least difficult question Ruth had asked him this week.
Carrying her beloved lover on her back under such a beautiful night sky, her legs are clamped around her waist, and her lips are whispering in her ears.
He could feel her question, and he could smell the sweetness of the apple in her mouth, which made him a little confused.
All this is very dreamlike, he happily wants to hum a song from his mouth, and he happily wants to dance on the spot with her on his back.But Ruth asked him to walk more slowly, and even set the speed.
But this did not affect Peter's good mood.
"I've liked you since a long time ago."
"I know."
Obviously she was the one who asked the question, but after Peter answered it, she said she knew it, like another way of acting like a baby.She leaned against Peter's shoulder, shook her head slightly, and sighed impatiently.
'Unfortunately I don't...'
She said something quickly, but Peter couldn't catch it, because it was better called a 'sigh' than a 'speak'.
He only heard the first few words, which were covered by the girl's sigh.
Just when Peter was about to ask Ruth in doubt, he heard her ask again.
"Will you still like me as much as you do now?"
What is the problem?
'Are girls in love like this sensitive and suspicious? '
Peter recalled the books that Aunt Mei often read in the study at home, and the content above was indeed correct. Once a girl felt a sense of crisis, she would seek a sense of security from her partner over and over again.
At this time, you must answer her with the most firm tone, otherwise it will make her feel even more uneasy.
"Of course it will."
Peter quickly affirmed her words first, and then thought of many words to add in his heart. Just when he was about to speak and say something more to Ruth behind him, he suddenly couldn't hear Ruth's voice.
Her breathing also became even and weak. Peter held his breath and turned his head slightly. After realizing that Ruth had really fallen asleep, he slowed down again.
'Let's tell her the rest when she wakes up, and now do as she said. '
Slow down, slow down.
With her beloved behind her back, she has been walking under the starry night sky, walking in dreams.Let her sleep peacefully and walk into dreams.
The author has something to say: Meow, due to the switching of perspectives, I don’t know if you understand why Hei Rusi disappeared.
And, you can guess what her sigh and unspoken words are.Almost everyone who guesses has a red envelope!
(I won’t talk about the red envelopes in the past few days, because I found that only the web version can send red envelopes, but many messages that can be seen on the APP cannot be displayed on the webpage. In the future, red envelopes will be randomly distributed, and I will send them to whichever one I can see ……despair)
"Buzz-!"
"You have a text message."
Peter reminded Ruth after glancing at the mobile phone with the screen on which was in Ruth's hand.
"Harry's? Why is he looking for you? Cough..."
When other people texted Ruth, Peter never asked, even if he saw it, he would not remind Ruth.But since he dated Ruth, Peter seemed to be a different person. As long as Harry sent Ruth a text message, he would be very concerned.
In order to be able to know the content of the text message in advance, Peter will deliberately remind Ruth to turn on the phone every time, even though Ruth is not very interested in Harry's letter.
[Harry: Are you dating Peter? ]
Being stared at nervously and expectantly by the boy opposite, even though Hei Ruth didn't want to look at it, she still had to pick up the phone.But when she just opened the text message and checked the content, she turned off the phone again.
"It's nothing, he said the weather was fine today, and asked if we had dinner."
Hei Ruth messed up the content of a text message. At first she felt that she was messing up too much and obviously planned to change her words, but when she looked up and saw that the boy's concerned eyes on the opposite side changed to 'resolved', she closed and opened it again. Mouth.
'No need, there is really no need to be tempted to talk to such a person. '
She lowered her head and picked up a piece of fried fish and put it in her mouth.

But Harry didn't give him such a chance, and seemed to be deliberately avoiding such a chance.

"Hasn't he noticed us..." Peter raised his head and glanced at Uncle Parker who was wearing glasses and reading the newspaper, then stuffed a big mouthful of mashed potatoes into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Why do you only send us The information was not sent to me."
06: 14PM
"Buzz-!"
Before she could put the phone back on the table, the screen turned on again, and she moved the phone back to her eyes.
"He texted you again?"
Peter asked, trying to stretch his neck to look at Ruth's erected mobile phone sitting across from him.
"It's not Harry, it's Gwen."
After glancing at the sender, Black Ruth shook her head and answered Peter.After hearing the name of 'Gwen', Peter immediately retracted his neck into the collar of the standing plaid shirt, and lowered his head.
Only the freckles on the bridge of his nose can be seen.

Hei Ruth felt a little annoyed, obviously she was planning to get Peter to like Ruth very much, and then get rid of Peter, which not only helped Ruth realize her wish of "loving Peter", but also helped Ruth, who was broken in love, achieve "stay away from Peter". ' Wish.
It can also help Ruth vent her anger by the way.
But for some reason, after Peter was called away by Gwen, she felt a sour taste from the bottom of her heart, and that taste called 'jealousy' became stronger as time went by.
"You are beautiful tonight."
It seems to be because of Ruth's careful dressing up. Although she is already very beautiful without makeup, Ruth seems to be a different person after dressing up, she is completely childish.She no longer looks so innocent and cute as usual, and she reveals a breathtaking charm from inside and outside.
Especially her eyes.
Harry, who is a social expert, seemed to be unable to find a topic at this time. He stood beside Ruth for an hour. After three times of changing songs and failing to invite dances, he expressed such emotion again.
[You are jealous, even though you said you hate people like Peter, but a week later, you still fell in love with Peter hopelessly.Because you are also a part of Ruth, and no matter how different you are, you can't change the liking for it. ]
At this time, "that guy" was also talking to Hei Ruth, no matter how hard Hei Ruth tried to suppress her, she would seize every opportunity to emerge from various cracks, and see the needle as if she could not be killed.
"To shut up!"
Black Ruth growled angrily.
Not only did 'that guy' seem to be really frightened by her, and he didn't make any noise anymore, even Harry, who was standing by the side, was frightened by her.
"Sorry, I know you may not be in a good mood."
Ruth was looking down at her mobile phone to edit text messages, looking at her drooping eyebrows, Harry swallowed involuntarily at his Adam's apple.
"But you can tell me what is bothering you, and I will do my best to help you."
He approached Ruth with a wine glass, his voice full of strong bewitching meaning.
"Whether it's money... or, emotionally..."
Hei Ruth kept her head down and replied to Tony's text messages. She didn't realize that in just a few words, Harry had invaded her intimate distance.In fact, whenever she looked up, her small, erect nose knocked Harry's chest down.
But she didn't.
In order to quickly drive Peter out of her mind, Black Ruth decided to discuss with Tony about the potion. She was still trying her best to recommend the 'love potion' to him. After all, she had brewed a full potion. bottle, but for a whole week, she only used one drop.
—and that drop ended up in the trash with the waffles.
But Hei Ruth, who originally went to sell the potion with Tony to avoid Peter, thought about why she brewed the "love potion" and why she couldn't use it at all, but she missed Peter even more.
He was like a disturbing fly, buzzing around her ears non-stop.
"understood……"
Black Ruth answered Harry perfunctorily, although she didn't catch a word at all.
"boom--!"
Just as she was editing the text message recommending 'Love Potion' and was about to press the 'send button', there was an explosion sound in the distance.And this text message about the 'love potion' was not sent out again because of Ruth's hand shaking.
"Shit!"
This is the first time she swears.
****
10: 05PM
"Isn't Gwen's dress beautiful tonight?"
After Peter was called away by Gwen at 08:30, he didn't come back panting until almost ten o'clock when the two agreed to leave.
Although, Peter explained to Ruth for a long time that he had been away for so long just now, and he was not with Gwen at all, but found someone trading dangerous weapons in the distance of Gwen's house.
Instead of talking about love with the ambiguous object, he went to fight for justice.
But Ruth didn't listen to Peter's explanation at all.
Her complexion looked terrible, and she stomped her feet to force Peter to carry her back.
[Today is the first time I wear high heels and my feet hurt. ]
Ruth explained it this way.
"...It's not bad."
Although Peter hesitated at that time, he still carried Ruth, who was playing a little girl, in front of everyone, and refused Harry's kindness to drive them back.
Since Ruth said, "You have to walk slowly, her feet hurt and her stomach is uncomfortable, so you are not allowed to use spider silk", every step of Peter's footsteps is light and steady, for fear of bumping the black hair on his back. hair girl.
He focused on the road in front of him.
Although Peter can multitask, he really can't think of what clothes Gwen is wearing tonight.
"You are so perfunctory!"
Ruth behind her snorted dissatisfied.
"real……"
Peter replied helplessly, and then he seemed to think that his answer did not sound out of his mind, so he added in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Although I don't remember what she is wearing tonight, I am sure Not as good-looking as you."
After adding the second half of the sentence, Peter heard the girl's chuckle, and she seemed very satisfied with his answer.
"Are you angry that I asked you to come back with my back in front of so many people tonight?"
she asked.
Obviously, the wine she drank could only smell the sweetness of apples, without any alcohol taste, but Peter always felt that her voice was a little hoarse, as if she was drunk.
Even when Ruth asked, he said something here and there, so that he didn't understand what Ruth wanted to ask at all.
"not angry."
Peter replied without thinking.
This is the truth, although I was a little embarrassed at the beginning, but seeing Ruth pouted her moist red lips and opened her hands to him, with a look of "I won't leave if you don't hug me", it was so cute He is going crazy.
When he heard Harry 'relieve' him and asked if he wanted to take his car, Peter picked up Ruth almost immediately in the next second.
Due to the sudden discovery of the dangerous person, he had already left Ruth and Harry alone all night, so he didn't want to give Harry another chance to get along with Ruth.
……
Peter thought that after hearing his decisive answer, the girl would continue to smile at him with satisfaction, and then ask some other weird questions, but she didn't.
She was suddenly silent behind her, and Peter could only hear her breathing.Peter, who didn't get a reply, suddenly began to hesitate whether his answer just now was correct, and he began to panic.
Just when he was about to stop and turn around to ask Ruth, the sweet smell of apples lingered in his nose again.
"You really like Ruth..."
The girl rested her head on his shoulder and whispered into Peter's ear.
For some reason, when she asked such straightforward words, Ruth's tone was not as shy as in the past, nor as coquettish as in recent days, but mixed with a faint emotion.
As if lamenting about other people's affairs, she didn't even use 'I', but used the name 'Ruth'.
"Yes, I have liked Ruth since a long time ago."
Peter chuckled, this was the least difficult question Ruth had asked him this week.
Carrying her beloved lover on her back under such a beautiful night sky, her legs are clamped around her waist, and her lips are whispering in her ears.
He could feel her question, and he could smell the sweetness of the apple in her mouth, which made him a little confused.
All this is very dreamlike, he happily wants to hum a song from his mouth, and he happily wants to dance on the spot with her on his back.But Ruth asked him to walk more slowly, and even set the speed.
But this did not affect Peter's good mood.
"I've liked you since a long time ago."
"I know."
Obviously she was the one who asked the question, but after Peter answered it, she said she knew it, like another way of acting like a baby.She leaned against Peter's shoulder, shook her head slightly, and sighed impatiently.
'Unfortunately I don't...'
She said something quickly, but Peter couldn't catch it, because it was better called a 'sigh' than a 'speak'.
He only heard the first few words, which were covered by the girl's sigh.
Just when Peter was about to ask Ruth in doubt, he heard her ask again.
"Will you still like me as much as you do now?"
What is the problem?
'Are girls in love like this sensitive and suspicious? '
Peter recalled the books that Aunt Mei often read in the study at home, and the content above was indeed correct. Once a girl felt a sense of crisis, she would seek a sense of security from her partner over and over again.
At this time, you must answer her with the most firm tone, otherwise it will make her feel even more uneasy.
"Of course it will."
Peter quickly affirmed her words first, and then thought of many words to add in his heart. Just when he was about to speak and say something more to Ruth behind him, he suddenly couldn't hear Ruth's voice.
Her breathing also became even and weak. Peter held his breath and turned his head slightly. After realizing that Ruth had really fallen asleep, he slowed down again.
'Let's tell her the rest when she wakes up, and now do as she said. '
Slow down, slow down.
With her beloved behind her back, she has been walking under the starry night sky, walking in dreams.Let her sleep peacefully and walk into dreams.
The author has something to say: Meow, due to the switching of perspectives, I don’t know if you understand why Hei Rusi disappeared.
And, you can guess what her sigh and unspoken words are.Almost everyone who guesses has a red envelope!
(I won’t talk about the red envelopes in the past few days, because I found that only the web version can send red envelopes, but many messages that can be seen on the APP cannot be displayed on the webpage. In the future, red envelopes will be randomly distributed, and I will send them to whichever one I can see ……despair)
