Zhang Yang felt that it was better to clarify what happened first, otherwise things would only become more and more chaotic.
"I don't know either."
Qingqing pursed her lips and continued with a look of confusion and sadness: "Everything was fine at first, but a few days ago he suddenly made an excuse not to see me again because he had something to do. Originally, I thought he really had a mission for the company, so I didn't care."
"I stayed out of town for two days on this flight. When I called him, he said he didn't want to see me again and asked me not to contact him again."
When she said this, tears flashed in Qingqing's eyes, she curled her lips and continued: "I asked him why? He refused to tell me. I said goodbye once, even if it is the last time, explain to me, I don't know how
Stick to him and won’t let go.”
"Did he never agree to see you?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Well, that's so disrespectful. I told Shen Xue about this, not because I wanted to embarrass him, but because I wanted Shen Xue to help me make an appointment with him to make it clear to him face to face."
Qingqing had an expression of excitement and dissatisfaction on her face, but tears fell down her face. She said pitifully but unwillingly: "What on earth did I do wrong to him? I went to work so hard, and when I came back, I went to the hospital to take care of him.
Why do you do this to me?"
"That's right, he just doesn't know how to appreciate others." Shen Xue said for her.
"Don't be afraid of Qingqing, even if he doesn't come out, I will break in and deal with him." Shishi always prefers force to solve problems, especially when she feels that a man has betrayed a woman.
Zhang Yang couldn't deny that this was a bad habit he had cultivated in her, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who could tell him that he couldn't beat this girl in the past?
"How about I summon the resentful spirit to show up and scare him out?" Ling Bing'er said in a consultative tone.
"No, didn't you promise that you would never practice Yinmen ghost arts again?" Zhang Yang hurriedly refused.
"Don't worry, I think there must be a reason."
Tang Shuxin finally opened her mouth to excuse her brother, and continued with an embarrassed look on her pretty face: "I know Xiaoqiang's temper. He seems to not care about anything, but he is actually very sensitive and fragile inside."
Seeing Shishi shouting loudly, she was naturally dissatisfied, which could be said to be unpleasant.
However, she could clearly see Qingqing's careful care for her younger brother. She was such a good girl, but her younger brother actually treated her like this. What reason did she have to stop Shishi from standing up for her?
In China, the profession of stewardess is even better than that of white-collar workers, but Tang Qiang can be said to have nothing.
Qingqing can fall in love with him regardless of these things, which does not rule out the feeling of repaying the life-saving grace.
But there must be appreciation and affection for him, otherwise with the rationality and magnanimity shown by Qingqing, even if he repays his kindness, there is no need to risk his life's happiness.
Tang Shuxin knew this very well, and she wished her brother could find such a good wife, so she chose to comfort Qingqing and not stop Shishi.
"Sister Shuxin, does he have a girl he likes?" Qingqing wiped her tears and asked.
"He dares? If he is really half-hearted, I will have to castrate him."
Shishi was so shameless that she was frank and innocent. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence. She often said this when she was in Danxia Mountain.
As soon as she said these words, everyone in the room focused their eyes on her, with expressions of dumbfounding.
Of course, it is undeniable that although she spoke angrily and firmly, the tense atmosphere in the room eased a lot.
"Don't worry, Xiaoqiang is not such a man."
A smile appeared on Tang Shuxin's pretty face and she continued: "He has never even been in love, and he knows very few girls. How could he fall in love with other girls in just a few days?"
"Is there anything unusual about him these days?" Zhang Yang believed her words and asked.
"He doesn't talk much recently. After eating, he goes back to the house to sleep."
Tang Shuxin pondered for a while and then continued: "I originally thought that he had just recovered from his injury and needed to rest, so I didn't pay attention. Now it seems that it must be related to Qingqing."
"I understand, it must have been after Su Jin'er hijacked him last time that he started to behave like this, right?" Zhang Yang suddenly realized.
"Yes, just after that incident."
Tang Shuxin said with a horrified look on her face: "It's not like those things are attached to him, right?"
Thinking of those resentful spirits, she felt lingering fear. When Zhang Yang mentioned that incident, she thought those things were lingering and haunting Tang Qiang.
"No, he just has inner demons."
Zhang Yang immediately relaxed and continued: "You guys sit quietly for a while, I will go in and persuade him to come out."
After finishing speaking, he stood up, walked to Tang Qiang's bedroom door, and knocked on the door.
There are only two bedrooms in the house, one belongs to Tang Qiang, and the other belongs to Tang Shuxin. The two bedrooms happen to have opposite doors.
Tang Shuxin's bedroom door was open, and Zhang Yang saw her boudoir for the first time.
It was tidied up in an orderly manner. There were also several dolls on the bed, and there was a large mirror as tall as a person at the head of the bed.
There is a clothes rack facing the door, with two dresses hanging on it, one pink and one white. The labels have not been removed yet, which shows that they have not been worn since they were purchased.
"Is he still refusing to open the door?"
Tang Shuxin walked over and saw him looking at her room. She blushed and continued: "What's wrong with him? Don't you like Qingqing?"
"You must look beautiful in a dress." Zhang Yang did not answer, but pointed to the dress in her bedroom.
"I'm not suitable for wearing skirts."
"Then why are you still buying it?"
"I just thought it was very beautiful and I saw other girls wearing it, so I bought it and tried it on secretly for myself."
…
Tang Shuxin's unabashed words made Zhang Yang feel very distressed. He immediately understood that the scars on her body and her career as a soldier made her unsuitable for wearing such a dress.
But the girl's natural love for beauty still led her to buy two pieces. Maybe she would wear them and look in the mirror to appreciate herself when she was alone.
"Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and ask him to open the door. I also want to ask him, what's wrong with Qingqing? Why do you do this to others?" Tang Shuxin saw him dazed and urged.
"Can you put on a dress and show it to me? I guess it will look very beautiful?"
Tang Shuxin was stunned for a moment, with a blush on her pretty face. She was embarrassed but felt a sweet warmth rising in her heart and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and knock on the door."
Girls all want to show their most beautiful side, wear beautiful and sexy clothes and make up, and she is certainly no exception.
It's just that as female soldiers, their daily training brings them closer to men. These girls' nature is deeply suppressed in their hearts, and they secretly show it when they are alone, just to admire themselves.
Zhang Yang's most straightforward words touched the softest and most vulnerable part of her heart, making her feel that she was still a girl...
"I'll persuade him later, so you can show me what he's wearing."
"Do you have to impose conditions on everything you do?"
"Who wants to waste their efforts these days?"
…
Tang Shuxin was speechless and stopped talking to him. Knowing his character, it was pretty good to play poor people.
Bang bang bang...
Zhang Yang knocked on the door and shouted at the same time: "Erdan, open the door quickly."
"Get lost." Tang Qiang's roar came from the room.
"Don't call him Erdan, he hates it the most when others call him that." Tang Shuxin reminded from one side, dumbfounded.
"He has low self-esteem. You, my sister, can't even see that?"
After Zhang Yang turned his head and said, he continued to knock on the door and shouted: "We two brothers have a life-long friendship. Let me remind you, if you don't come out, these girls will have to demolish the house. You can't hide it.
Let me go in and help you think of a solution."
He knew that soldiers often place great importance on brotherhood, so he brought up the story of the two of them working together on the plane.
"I don't need any help."
"You open the door first. Are you still afraid of these girls?" Zhang Yang began to use provocation.
"What am I afraid of them doing?"
"You let me in, and we two brothers will have a chat first. Don't be so unmanly and nagging."
…
Tang Qiang didn't speak anymore. After a while, there was a rush of footsteps in the bedroom, and then the door opened with a "click".
Zhang Yang walked in immediately, and Tang Shuxin, as his sister, also quickly followed in, and at the same time waved his hands to stop several girls who wanted to come over.
She knew that if these girls went in together, things would definitely become more chaotic and complicated, and her brother would not speak his mind out of shame.
Tang Qiang's bedroom was a bit messy, the room was filled with smoke, and the ashtray on the bedside table was full of cigarette butts.
He was still wearing gray casual clothes, but it was wrinkled. He was completely different from his usual chic and capable look, and his eyes looked a little haggard and panicked.
"Xiaoqiang, what's going on between you and Qingqing?"
The love between brother and sister is deep, Tang Shuxin felt very distressed when she saw his decadent look, and asked anxiously and concernedly.
"It's okay, sister. I just don't think it's appropriate, so I don't want to contact her anymore, so as not to delay her finding a boyfriend."
"you……"
The corner of Tang Shuxin's mouth twitched, showing that she was very excited inside. Of course, she also understood that this was a deliberate lie by her brother.
He continued to say softly: "Qingqing is pretty good. She took such considerate care of you when you were in the hospital, and your work is good. It's good that she doesn't dislike you. What else do you think is inappropriate?"
"You really think it's inappropriate?" Zhang Yang showed an exaggerated look of joy on his face.
"Yeah." Tang Qiang frowned.
"Actually, I don't think you are suitable either."
Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Since you don't plan to continue, just leave it to me. After all, we are also buddies. As the saying goes, good things don't go to outsiders. I..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you so persuasive?" Tang Shuxin pressed her knee hard on his thigh and said angrily.
"He thinks it's inappropriate. Qingqing will find a boyfriend sooner or later. Why can't I?"
Zhang Yang smiled evilly and continued: "They are not married, so they don't have to worry about their friends' wives."
Tang Shuxin knew he was joking, but she was still so angry that her face turned pale... (To be continued)
