Xie Shuting thought Hua Wenli's idea was a good one, and she didn't want to speculate like this.
"Then I'll go find him now," Xie Shuting sat up, "I want to ask if it's possible for us to..."
As she was about to get out of bed and put on her shoes, Hua Wenli hurriedly grabbed her arm, "You don't even know what time it is. Su Wennian might have already fallen asleep. Don't scare him. It's better to wait until tomorrow."
Go ask."
"No, there is no holiday for the Chinese New Year. Maybe he only took one afternoon off today and will go back to the town to work in the production brigade early tomorrow morning? Then I will have to wait for several weeks.
Let alone a few weeks, I can't wait even a day! If I keep thinking about it like this, I will definitely not be able to sleep every day, because he will be in my mind, and then my heart will be in a mess."
Speaking of this, she looked into Hua Wenli's eyes and said, "Wenli, you have someone you like, so you should understand how I feel now, right? This feeling of my heart hanging in mid-air, up and down, is so uncomfortable.
"
Hua Wenli slowly let go of her hand and nodded in understanding, "I understand, go find him."
After saying that, she picked up the kerosene lamp next to the bed and handed it to Xie Shuting, "Be careful on the road, don't accidentally fall."
"Yes! Thank you!" Xie Shuting walked out of the door in the dark, suddenly feeling extremely nervous.
It was pitch black before her eyes. She squatted on the ground, lit the kerosene lamp with a match, and then slowly walked upstairs in the dim light, thinking as she walked, if she remembered correctly, Wennian's room seemed to be the third one on the right.
She used to help the Su family with chores, either in the kitchen or in the yard, and rarely went upstairs. Only once did she go up to the second floor and saw Wennian enter the third room on the right.
Standing outside the room, her heart beat even harder.
Worried that knocking on the door would wake Uncle Su and Aunt Bai, she blew out the oil lamp and opened the door carefully.
Only a vague outline could be seen in the darkness. Xie Shuting touched the bed and asked in a low voice: "Wennian, are you asleep?"
The person on the bed moved slightly at first, and then he was obviously frightened by her, and he immediately sat up.
"Don't be afraid, I'm Xie Shuting. I have something I want to talk to you about alone."
"you……"
Before the other party finished speaking a word, Xie Shuting immediately interrupted: "Don't say anything first, let me finish speaking first, please! There are too many words in my heart. If I don't say them tonight, I may never say them again."
Courage told you.
In fact, I wanted to talk to you when I came to see you in the afternoon, but at that time my mind was stuck and I couldn't say anything. In front of you, my mind was always blank, only as dark as it is now.
, I can’t speak out until I can’t see you.”
With almost no pause, she asked and answered, "Do you still remember the first time we met? It was at the train station. You came to pick up the educated youth that day. It happened to be raining. I sprained my feet, and you carried me on your back. Don't you remember?
remember?
Now that I think about it, I still feel that I was so lucky to have you carry me on my back. We will never have such a close contact again, and you will always be cold and indifferent to me.
You may not believe it, but I fell in love with you at first sight.
Later I found out you could draw, and I liked you even more. By the way, you were the first person to point out my shortcomings. No one had ever spoken out about my shortcomings so straightforwardly before. I understood every word you said.
I remember it very clearly.
You said that I am too selfish towards people and things, that I never consider other people’s feelings, and that I like to be aggressive...
I have deeply reviewed and reflected on myself, really! Thinking about it now, I sometimes speak without restraint, and it is indeed easy to hurt others. I have tried to restrain myself and try to think from other people's perspective.
Do you still remember when we were in the cafeteria, everyone was talking behind my back and laughing at me because of what the disgusting Liao Feihong said about being his wife? Do you stand up and speak up for me?
You don't speak much. I didn't expect you to help me that day.
I was really touched! I made up my mind at that time, I must marry you...
You may think that I have a lot of shortcomings, so you don’t like me, but for you, I can change it!
Wen Nian, I don't ask you to accept me immediately and like me, I just ask you to give me a little hope, say that you don't hate me that much, and agree that I can continue to wait for you at the entrance of the village in the future, then I will be very happy."
In the darkness, Xie Shuting felt uneasy.
Although she couldn't see his facial features clearly, she vaguely saw the other person opening his mouth slightly...
She didn't know why, but suddenly she felt very scared. Wen Nian's voice came to her mind. He said that he hated her and found her annoying. He didn't want to see her again in the future, and he didn't want her to come into his room in the middle of the night and scare him again.
This happened...
She had already been ruthlessly rejected by him once in the afternoon, and she couldn't bear the same blow.
In order to stop Wennian from rejecting her, Xie Shuting made a move that she could not understand.
As he got closer, she unexpectedly kissed him on the lips.
When Xie Shuting came to her senses, her face turned red and she apologized anxiously, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I really didn't want to kiss you, I, I..."
She didn't know how to explain it. She felt ashamed to see people, so she turned around and tried to run out of the house, but because she was so panicked, she stumbled and fell flat on her back.
After a while, the person on the bed stepped forward to help her up and asked, "Are you okay?"
The man's voice had a grainy, thick and deep feel, which was completely different from Wen Nian's gentle and jade-like voice.
Xie Shuting was already ashamed because she took the initiative to kiss the man on the lips, but now she was even more shocked and speechless.
The bright moon floated out from the clouds, shining through the window into the originally dark room.
Xie Shuting's eyes widened as she looked at the gradually clear figure in front of her, "You, you are..."
Isn't this room occupied by Wen Nian? Why did he become his second brother?
The person he just kissed turned out to be Wen Nian's second brother?
"I wanted to speak several times, but you spoke so quietly that I had no chance to interrupt you," Su Nanbing said helplessly, "In the end, such a misunderstanding occurred, so just pretend that nothing happened."
Xie Shuting was confused for a while before she nodded, "Okay, just pretend that nothing... never happened..."
She didn't know how she got downstairs. After returning to Hua Wenli's room, she lay back on the quilt.
"How's it going? What did Su Wennian say?" Hua Wenli asked curiously.
Xie Shuting covered her face with the quilt, "I really want to die!"
Thinking that she was rejected by Su Wenian, Hua Wenli said anxiously: "Shu Ting, don't think too hard. Even if he doesn't like you, you can't think too much. You are so beautiful, and you will definitely meet someone better in the future."
"Woo, Wen Li, please stop talking. If you keep talking, I really don't want to live anymore!" Xie Shuting wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
