Lin Ruoxi recently found that she had insomnia and it was difficult to sleep at night because she was always particularly afraid of the sound that would suddenly sound in the middle of the night.
Today is by no means the first time.
When Chu Yun walked into the living room, he didn't pay special attention to Lin Ruoxi, who was curled up on the sofa. He put the car keys he borrowed from Ma Peng on the coffee table and went straight to the refrigerator.
The second hand on the clock moved rustlingly, and the hour hand pointed to the two o'clock position.
Chu Yun opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of drink. When he was about to close the door of the refrigerator, his clothes were pulled behind him.
During most of the night, even though Chu Yun was mentally strong, he was still frightened by this sudden situation. He reacted faster than others, his body was faster than his mind, and he immediately took defensive actions. But fortunately, he made a mistake.
He accurately estimated the height of the "criminal", and Lin Ruoxi had her head lowered at the moment, so his sharp elbow strike was luckily missed.
"What's going on?" Chu Yun was in shock, until he saw clearly that the person who grabbed his clothes and played tricks in the middle of the night was Lin Ruoxi, and he couldn't help but feel scared again. If the elbow just hit him, it was not a joke.
Time to play.
Chu Yun suddenly became a little anxious and said something in a hurry: "Why are you here?"
Lin Ruoxi stared at him, and the grievances and annoyance she had accumulated over the past few days rushed to her head: "Why can't I be here? This is my territory."
Chu Yun was stunned. He also realized that his tone was too much, so he took the initiative to show weakness and said in a low voice: "No, I mean why are you still up so late?"
"Aren't you going to bed too, and being dressed so neatly at this late hour is more suspicious than me, and you're a thief?"
Chu Yun was embarrassed. Lin Ruoxi was right. He was indeed about to go out.
Seeing that Chu Yun stopped talking, Lin Ruoxi didn't feel any joy at winning the argument. She tried her best to balance the unnaturalness in her voice: "Where are you going?"
"Something happened at my friend's place recently, so..." There is nothing wrong with what Chu Yun said.
But Lin Ruoxi's eyebrows raised: "Which friend?"
Chu Yun was ready to give the correct answer, but he remembered Xiao Ya's special words not to reveal the relationship between the two for the time being, especially to let Lin Ruoxi know.
[I will tell her when the time is right, so... don’t do it now.]
It's not that Chu Yun can't understand what Xiao Ya means. To be honest, there is no emotional basis for the relationship between the two of them. They just want each other to get what they need. Xiao Ya is looking for emotional comfort, while Chu Yun is trying to escape from something.
Although he would never admit this to himself, he knew from the bottom of his heart that this romantic relationship might have a time limit.
When Xiao Ya comes out of the pain of love, perhaps when this relationship ends, this is Chu Yun's understanding of what Xiao Ya said. They are making mistakes, but it does not mean that they do not think correctly.
ability.
Human beings are creatures that often insist on something they know is wrong.
Some people will be wrong for a while, but no one will be wrong for a lifetime.
The factor that made Chu Yun and Xiao Ya make the choice they made now was that they both needed each other.
But Chu Yun obviously ignored one thing, that is, Xiao Ya was not the only one who needed him.
Lin Ruoxi was waiting for Chu Yun's answer, but Chu Yun was thinking about how to deal with it.
"Just a friend." He was so vague.
Standing in the backlight, Lin Ruoxi did not continue to ask, but looked at Chu Yun silently with her moist eyes. Now she wanted to just go up and hug him, and told him not to leave, not to go to other women again.
go.
Women are very sensitive creatures, especially when other women approach their men, they will have a natural sense of smell.
But unfortunately, Chu Yun is not Lin Ruoxi's man, nor is he her private property.
Therefore, she couldn't say anything and retreated timidly and cowardly.
She discovered that she, who had always gone her own way, was actually extremely scared, and suddenly it felt like a hole had opened in her heart.
Chu Yun's words became irrelevant. No matter what he said, his body still passed through her and reached a place out of her reach. She watched him pick up the car keys on the table, but she couldn't hear what he said clearly.
What, there is only a buzzing and congestion sound in my ears.
But it was only the last sentence that she heard particularly clearly.
"It's already past the time for children to go to bed. It's getting late. Go to bed quickly."
child?
When Lin Ruoxi came back to her senses, Chu Yun passed through the door of the living room and disappeared deep into the corridor.
It turns out that I am really just a child to him.
Lin Ruoxi hugged her knees tightly and huddled into the darkness.
The night is as cool as water.
July 23rd will be Lin Ruoxi’s birthday.
When Chu Yun was informed of this, it was Zhong Chuchu who quietly told him three days ago.
Chu Yun looked very surprised, because there were no signs before, but when asked, Xiao Ya also knew about it, and even laughed at Chu Yun for not being careful at all, as if she had prepared the gift a month in advance.
But when she talked about this, the smile on Xiao Ya's face flashed away. She focused her eyes on Chu Yun, then lowered her head and said mockingly to herself: "I am a sinful woman."
When she said it, her voice was too soft and she could barely pronounce it. Chu Yun just looked at her strangely and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ya shook her head: "It's nothing, I just thought of something from the past."
Chu Yun thought Xiao Ya was talking about her old boyfriend again, and said, "Tsk, I'm jealous when I think about my past in front of my current boyfriend."
Xiao Ya knew that Chu Yun had misunderstood what he meant, but when she looked at Chu Yun, her eyes showed more concern than any jealousy he said. She stopped mentioning these things and changed the topic smartly: "I
It means that I remembered that on my birthday, you gave me a Hatsune doll."
"That one is called Hatsune." After Xiao Ya mentioned this, Chu Yun also recalled it, but he quickly shrugged, openly exposing his ignorance. After all, the gift was originally mentioned by Lin Ruoxi when she accompanied him to the mall.
I suggested that if he were asked to choose by himself, he would definitely not choose such a gift. "I remember that you gave me a kiss at that time."
"Well, by the way, Chu Yun, when is your birthday?" Xiao Ya suddenly asked.
"Me, November 23." Chu Yun was smoking a cigarette, leaning against the window sill of the coffee bar and blowing out a line of smoke.
"That will take a long time to prepare gifts."
"What gift are you going to give me?" Chu Yun flicked the ashes in the ashtray and said with a squint.
"Can I give myself to you?" Xiao Ya said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll wear a maid outfit and some high-top knee socks..." Chu Yun counted on his fingers.
"It feels a bit abnormal, Onii-chan." Xiao Ya said cooperatively.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Ya withdrew her gaze from Chu Yun's face and then turned to the window. Because there were no guests on the second floor today, it was almost as if they were renting the place. She just looked into the distance and murmured: "Chu Yun, if we could get to know each other earlier, it would be better."
alright."
"It's not too late." Chu Yun did not understand the meaning of Xiao Ya's words.
She smiled bitterly and stopped talking.
Yes, it would be better if we got to know each other earlier...
