There was a hint of disdain in Sima's smile. Under the street lights, there seemed to be drizzle falling gently. It was unreal and vague. It also made Sima look a little unreal, as if he was a shadow, as if there was an insurmountable distance.
Seeing Chi Xiaowan's single-minded sadness, this sadness swallowed her up in an instant, like a sea, letting her drown at any time. He told her so clearly that he would never like her, and he rejected her from the deepest part of his heart.
, although the other person was standing in front of her, his heart was not open to her. She was just a stranger to him!
"They seem to like studying the old site." Sima didn't notice Chi Xiaowan's expression. He just said indifferently, standing there, entangled in a strange emotion, wanting to stay and say a few words, but he couldn't.
He repeatedly ordered himself to stay away from this woman. The conflict was more severe than he expected. Looking at the darkness, he said, "It's getting late. I'll take you back."
"No need." Chi Xiaowan said in a panic. She was afraid of the feeling Sima gave her, the cold, unabashed distance. She lowered her head and said softly, "It's not far, you can go home in a short walk. On the way
There are people walking around who are not afraid."
Sima suddenly gave a gentle smile. This smile made the coldness on his body much lighter, "Anyway, I'm fine and I'm not driving. Let's just walk."
Chi Xiaowan didn't say anything, and the two of them walked quietly along the sidewalk. The drizzle was like silk, if it was there or not, with a little chill.
"It's raining," Sima said softly, handing Chi Xiaowan an umbrella, "I'm afraid it's going to rain harder in a while, so hold on to your umbrella."
A trace of doubt flashed through Chi Xiaowan's heart. She didn't seem to see anything in Sima's hand. Why did an umbrella suddenly appear? Or was she just not paying attention? She took the umbrella, it was the one she had used.
, exquisite beauty, and an indescribable loneliness. She opened the umbrella and could not hear the sound of rain falling. The rain fell very quietly, but it did gradually get louder.
Walking forward slowly, in the light of the street lamp, you can see the slightly sloping traces of rain, bringing a cool feeling.
"It's raining heavily, let's share an umbrella." Chi Xiaowan said softly.
"No need." Sima said calmly, looking forward, "I will only share the same umbrella with one woman in my life, and I will never share the same umbrella with any woman again."
Chi Xiaowan clenched the handle of the umbrella and tightened her body a little. There was another woman in his heart, a woman that he couldn't let go of. Although she was holding the umbrella, she felt as if her whole body was being soaked in the rain. She actually
She felt vaguely aggrieved and wanted to cry, so she lowered her head slightly to prevent Sima from seeing her expression. It seemed that Sima didn't look at her, but just walked beside her, slowly walking forward with her, always separated by the distance.
At a less obvious distance.
It is polite and indifferent.
"She," Chi Xiaowan hesitated and asked softly, "what kind of woman is she?"
Sima smiled softly, and his voice suddenly became gentle, "Are you talking about Yi'er? She is a woman who cannot be described in words. If you use words to describe her, you will find that words are so pale. She is like my life. When I think of her, I will wholeheartedly
"The happiness is just," Sima's voice suddenly dropped, as if lifeless, "she left as early as possible."
Chi Xiaowan raised his head and looked at Sima beside him. It turned out that the woman he loved had passed away. No wonder he was so sad and couldn't let go. "With you like this, she must be happy."
"She left, does happiness matter?" Sima said lightly, "I would rather she live and live in this happiness."
Chi Xiaowan pursed her lips lightly, lowered her head, and walked slowly. She didn't know what to say. She usually didn't like to talk too much, but now she felt that words were so inexpressible that she couldn't find it.
to what to say.
Just like that, I walked quietly in the light rain and slowly arrived in front of my house.
"Your sister, she seems to be waiting for you." Sima said quietly, looking at Chi Xiaohui not far in front, with an angry expression on his face. Under his cold eyes, he looked at Chi Xiaohui unnaturally.
Wan did not hide the annoyance in her eyes at all, "I think she seems to be looking for you."
Chi Xiaowan raised her head and looked at her sister Chi Xiaohui, wondering why she was standing at the door. At night, she was either playing outside with her friends or lying on the sofa watching TV. At this time, she was standing at the door.
It's a bit strange to wait for someone in front of your home.
"It's so rare, I'm finally back." Chi Xiaohui was really angry. This Chi Xiaowan really dared to compete with her for a man. Knowing that she liked this Sima, she actually walked with him on the road, like a pair of sweet lovers.
, isn’t this intentional to not give her face?!
"Second sister." Chi Xiaowan remembered what happened that night and was worried that Chi Xiaohui would do something rude in front of Sima, so she immediately put away the umbrella, returned it to Sima, and said hurriedly, "Thank you, Sima.
, I have arrived home safely, you can go back. Second sister, let’s go in."
"Xiaowan, you really opened the eyes of the second sister." Chi Xiaohui said with a half-smile, "Ouyang Qing called just now and called ten times, one every ten minutes, saying it was yours.
I forgot my cell phone in his office, and I don’t know when you will come home. It turns out that you have another sweetheart, which really impresses my second sister!"
"Second sister, Sima is just worried that I will come back alone. After meeting me on the road, he will send me back." Chi Xiaowan explained in a low voice, and just wanted to go back to the room immediately.
Chi Xiaohui still looked at Chi Xiaowan with the same expression, but did not dare to look at Sima. His cold indifference made her feel inexplicably flustered, "You'd better call Ouyang Qing right away, so that he doesn't run away from us."
Come home, you also know that Mom likes him the most, and everyone agrees on your affairs with him, so don’t embarrass your family by following you."
The door was opened from the inside, and Chi Sen walked out. He had just seen his youngest daughter coming back from the outside through the window of the room. The young man named Sima was accompanying him. He thought that his second daughter was also outside, so he was worried that something would happen, so he left specially.
When he came out, he heard Chi Xiaohui's words and said angrily: "Okay, Xiaohui, do you plan to let Xiaowan stay out all night? Okay, it's getting late, Xiaowan, go in and clean up and go to bed."
I have to go to work tomorrow. Xiaohui, please go in too. You have been standing outside for a long time. Your sister will be fine when she comes back." He looked up at Sima, smiled politely, and said, "Sima, right? Thank you for sending Xiao
Coming back late, so late, it’s really not safe for a girl like her on the road, you are so thoughtful.”
Sima had no expression on his face, glanced at Chi Xiaowan, and said calmly: "Goodbye." Then he turned and left, ignoring anyone.
How arrogant! Chi Sen thought.
As soon as she entered the door, she heard Chi Xiaohui say loudly in a voice that could also be heard by the neighbors: "Chi Xiaowan, you did it on purpose, didn't you? You knew I liked Sima, but you dared to take advantage of your future brother-in-law?
His future sister-in-law, you are like this!——"
"If I were you, I wouldn't be tempted by him." Chi Xiaowan said in a low voice, somewhat sadly, "There is someone in his heart, and he can no longer tolerate any woman."
"Don't you also like him?" Chi Xiaohui said disdainfully, "If you don't like him, given your character, will you let him send you back? Your voice will involuntarily slow down when he speaks.
Gentle? Stop saying such nice things!"
"Okay, okay," Chi Sen said angrily, "You two go to bed. It's already half past eleven. What else do you want to do? Fortunately, Mou Demeng is gone. Otherwise, it would not be enough to embarrass me. Neither of you two are allowed to
Go and like that Sima, Xiaowan, live well with Ouyang Qinglai, although he is not exciting enough, but he is a good candidate to be your husband. As for Xiaohui, you also have a good relationship with Lu Yurong, he is very good to you, his family background
It’s not bad, neither of you have much to do.”
Chi Xiaohui was unhappy and wanted to speak. Chi Xiaowan had already left to wash up, leaving her behind. Chi Xiaohui stared at Chi Xiaohui's back angrily and said angrily: "Why don't you do that?"
It’s really irritating. Don’t think that since you are my sister, I will be accommodating. No way.”
The phone in the living room rang. Chi Xiaohui glanced at the phone and was about to get angry. She rolled her eyes and ran over to pick up the phone. She smiled and said, "It's Ouyang Qing, right? It's really on time. I'm calling again. Don't worry."
, Xiaowan has come back, she was sent back by Sima."
There seemed to be a short period of silence on the other side of the phone. After a while, Ouyang Qing's voice came, "It'll be good when she gets home. I know about Sima sending her off."
"Ouyang Qing," Chi Xiaohui was about to continue talking when the sound of the phone hanging up came. Facing the phone, Chi Xiaohui was so angry that she couldn't express her anger. This Ouyang Qing was really a loser.
His girlfriend has changed her mind, and he doesn't even dare to say harsh words. Who would believe it? He knows about Sima sending Chi Xiaowan to her?! There's no way he knows!
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to bed." Chi Sen said, sighing in his heart, and returned to his bedroom. He saw Yu Xueqin lying quietly on the bed, looking at him silently, and paused.
, smiled and said, "It's okay. The weather is hot and it's easy to get angry. It will be fine in autumn."
Yu Xueqin said nothing, closed her eyes, moved her pillow, and seemed to have fallen asleep.
After closing the door, Chi Xiaowan didn't want to pay attention to Chi Xiaohui anymore. This second sister seemed to be in a bad mood these days. She lay down on the bed and saw Sima's expression in front of her, cold and distant.
It was after noon that Sang Xinrou came to work. Chi Xiaowan, who had been busy all morning, just stopped and drew the woman in the painting based on her memories on paper. She did not go to the old location today. Perhaps, she gave Ouyang Qing some time.
It's better to accept it. After all, everyone has always been familiar with each other, and everyone misunderstood that they were a pair of lovers. If they suddenly proposed to break up, he would inevitably not be able to accept it.
Sang Xinrou walked in with a strange smile on her face. When she saw Chi Xiaowan, she giggled and stared at Chi Xiaowan for a long time before she said slowly: "Xiaowan, I went on a blind date at noon today.
The other party was delayed by something last night, guess who I am going on a blind date with today?"
Chi Xiaowan glanced at Sang Xinrou, smiled, and said, "Xinrou, you are dressed like a lady today. This is the first time I see you wearing high heels. You are quite beautiful."
"Don't mention it, if I don't wear it, my mother will eat me alive." Sang Xinrou sat down on the chair and said cheerfully, "Just listen to what you heard, but don't tell me, otherwise, someone will
It will kill me. ——Xiao Wan, I don’t think you would have thought of who I was going on a blind date with. I just found out that my parents and the parents of your second sister’s boyfriend are Lu Yurong’s
My parents turned out to be classmates in high school. It was really strange. The elders of the two families wanted to get together with us. How did they know that Lu Yurong and I each had someone in our hearts? We could deal with it. But when I saw it was Lu Yurong, I almost went crazy.
Lose."
Chi Xiaowan stared at Sang Xinrou, laughed and said, "Really or not? It sounds interesting."
"Of course it's true. Can I make a joke about this?" Sang Xinrou also laughed, "I have seen your second sister with him on some occasion before. He is also a good-looking boy.
, the family is not bad, and he is an only son. Your second sister and him will not suffer hardship in the rest of their lives. It seems that he is devoted to your second sister. Alas, it is really a person's destiny, so I can't accept it."
