Chapter 631 The Hopeless Kind
Suddenly there seemed to be some inexplicable problems.
As if asking where something was put, Qingpiao asked abruptly, inserting a page into the chat with a chuckle.
Xia Yao's slender silhouette was reflected in Fangran's pupils, and she chuckled as if she was curiously asking about a trivial matter, and the [Scale Scale] was silently activated.
After Shui Lianxin suddenly realized that his 'safety measures' had failed, he wondered if his senior sister had also remembered what happened before.
He asked his heart more than once. Even though he found that the name on the piece of paper was still just three Chinese characters for him and no figure emerged, he still asked this question at this moment.
After learning from Ziye the consequences of ordinary people being involved in the scene,
He even thought about what to ask for a long time. Even [Weighing Cards] would produce inaccurate judgments due to the ambiguity of language. Therefore, after eliminating all options that could lead to inaccurate answers and misunderstandings, he finally could only Ask this question so directly.
"Block...?"
At the moment when Xia Yao, who was naturally puzzled when she heard this sentence, said strangely, Fangran pretended to be curious and kept looking at her expression.
People always behave unnaturally when they lie, and this may be... particularly obvious in his case.
Hearing Fangran's sudden question, Xia Yao was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him with some strange confusion:
"What cube?"
-【reality】-
There was no pause in his eyes, and there was no surprise but he finally breathed a sigh of relief, which made Fangran suddenly feel like he had an obsessive-compulsive disorder and finally checked that the door was locked after leaving the door.
But at that moment when the evening breeze blew, he finally felt relieved...
"Ah...it's okay. I'm just asking. Senior, don't worry."
Xia Yao gave him a funny and strange look, but did not ask any further questions, but the invitation she was about to ask was nowhere to be found.
The journey home with others seems to be accelerated by time, and it is even faster when getting along with the opposite sex.
Fangran always felt that before they had gone far, the two of them had already returned to the gate of the Capital University campus.
"Senior, wait for me for a moment. I'll be fine soon."
Then the moment he saw the duty room at the door, Fangran seemed to have remembered something, said something to Xia Yao, and ran over there holding the bag.
Xia Yao smiled and watched his back stay where he was.
He quietly used the [Illusion Card] to cast an illusion that he was not in the camera, and opened the ventilated window outside the duty room to look inside.
In the evening breeze, the figure on the rocking chair who once chased me all over the playground on a small electric donkey was dozing peacefully.
He even saved the magic power of [Mian Pai], and he quietly took out a cup of shaved ice and placed it on the table by the window.
Then Fangran opened his eyes wide and blinked, thinking for a moment, then he smiled mischievously and turned it into durian flavor.
Then he ran away from the door of the duty room in a hurry.
"Okay, senior, let's go back."
Standing there and seeing what he was doing, Xia Yao, who was a little curious about where the shaved ice came from, asked with a strange chuckle:
"Junior, do you have a good relationship with the guard?"
"Well...that's not..."
Holding the bag in his arms and seeing Xia Yao's confused look, Fangran remembered the days when he was selling shaved ice in the playground last month and heading towards the road to wealth, and those days when he and Uncle Gong rode together in the sunset. He scratched his cheek with slight shame:
"It would be better to say that Uncle Chen has always wanted to bring me to justice."
"Then what are you...?"
Hearing his opposite answer, Xia Yao couldn't understand the strange question and laughed.
"This..."
Understanding Xia Yao's curiosity, Fangran smiled as if he had recalled something, and his happy-looking eyes became gentle in the evening breeze that blew his broken hair.
"This is how I return the favor to you."
That night not long ago, far away from the gate of the bonfire party on the playground,
The gatekeeper woke up the young man who was lying on the ground with a flashlight.
If I hadn't heard his cry at that time, would I have been able to wake up?
"Favor?"
Xia Yao was stunned for a moment, not expecting such a serious answer.
"Yeah, a favor,"
When he answered like this, his eyes were suddenly attracted to the night sky in the distance, where the night was about to come, and the stars were like a sea.
"Many times, it's just a trivial thing that makes a big difference to your destiny."
Like the mobile phone that was lost at the beginning, like the fiancée who fooled others casually, like lies told randomly because of nervousness, like the polar bear saved by chance,
"But at the time, you might have thought it was just a normal day in your life."
Like the women's locker room I accidentally broke into...
Holding the bag in his arms, Fangran looked at the night gradually moving forward on the horizon, slightly lost in thought.
"So, I just try my best to repay them and protect them. If I can't stop, then move forward..."
He looked at Xia Yao and smiled, letting the evening breeze blow the broken hair around his ears.
"Maybe I just learned to take responsibility."
The moment Xia Yao subconsciously stopped walking in high heels, she felt the corners of her eyes heat up slightly as she looked at his figure.
"Junior, you..."
"Well, what's wrong, senior?"
The young man turned to look at her who suddenly stopped. The hem of her pure white translucent clothes was lifted gently. Xia Yao tried her best to smile happily at him, hiding some turbulent emotions. Her chuckle sound was gentle in the wind.
"Have you grown a little taller..."
...
...
"cheers!!!"
The preparations for dinner are over, bright lights illuminate the stylish and beautiful hut, the BBQ meat skewers are sizzling with light, oysters, scallops and other seafood are neatly placed on the edge of the plate, cups of various colors are clinking together, and cheers are finally heard. There was a sound in the magical boy's cabin!
"The first welcome party to warmly celebrate my brother who ran away from home and came back alive has officially begun!"
"Grass mud daddy! I didn't run away from home! And there won't be a second time! And brother, do you only know this kind of stupid opening remarks!?"
Then just after the toast, two idiots pinched each other, causing Fang Xiaoran, who was next to them, to look at him.
"Don't make trouble while eating."
"oh."
"oh..."
In an instant, he sat down obediently and calmed down.
"Little or little, how about it, would you like to taste the Bordeaux I brought?"
"Sorry, Sister Ming Ling, I don't drink."
Opposite Fang Xiaoran, Ming Ling held up the wine glass and asked the temptation, deliberately leaning towards the side. Then Gou Yu had no choice but to avoid it slightly and declined, then looked to the other side and asked:
"And Sister Ming Ling, do you want an apron? It will be very troublesome if your clothes get stained. Sister Xia, Xiaoran, do you want one?"
"Xiaoor! I want it, I want it!"
"Captain, if your T-shirt gets dirty, just use the washing machine."
Fangran: "..."
Damn it, you are biased (head in shock, unable to accept it.jpg)! ! !
"Speaking of which, why is your belly so bloated from just now?"
She raised her pretty eyebrows and took the apron from Gou Yu's hand. Ming Ling, who was still dressed in a new outfit, looked suspiciously at Fang Ran, who had a bulge in her T-shirt at home.
"Aha...Pillow! Pillow!"
"La..."
"La la la! La la la! I am a little expert in selling newspapers! (Suddenly singing)"
A lively atmosphere surrounds the small table, and similar conversations are endless. The aroma of seafood barbecue makes people's fingers tantalize, and the color and fragrance fill the room at this moment.
"Fuck! Brother, that oyster is mine!"
"Ha!? I didn't write your name. Whoever grabs it belongs to whom!"
"Damn it, how can you be more shameless, brother, trying to steal something from a wounded man who has been lying in bed for a week and hasn't eaten anything good?"
"Bah, you damn wounded soldier who is more energetic than me, how dare you put the shrimp and grilled fish in your hand and say this!?"
...
Fang Ran and Meng Lang, who couldn't stop eating chicken wings, chicken steaks, grilled squid and other barbecue skewers, once again had the right to own the seafood part.
Without any warning, they all picked up their own weapons and stuffed them into the opponent's mouth!
"Spicy pepper x 2!!"
Looking at the two guys with their mouths full stuffing each other with hot peppers, and each holding crispy bones, enoki mushrooms and mutton kebabs in their other hands. The guy with a huge appetite,
Gou Yu was worried about whether he could finish all the food. It was not until he was half-prepared that he felt worried about why these two guys were so quiet. He took a look out of the kitchen.
I found a small square table that seemed to be a little bigger...
By the way, this time Ming Ling is still paddling in the kitchen for the sake of women's dignity.
In short, all the barbecue on the small table at the end was eaten, even the roasted leeks served at the end of the plate were not spared. Two figures lay side by side on the carpet with their big bellies, tremblingly chewing stomach and digestive tablets. when,
Ming Ling, who was drinking happily next to Gou Yu, stretched greatly and then stood up from the small table.
"Okay, it's getting late, I'm going back first, Xiaoran, come on, I'll drive you by the way."
"Then it's my fault, senior sister."
Fang Xiaoran also stood up and said.
"Wait a minute, Lingzi, I'm coming too. Let me stay at your place tonight."
"Sister Xia, what's wrong? Is there any inconvenience?"
Gou Yu came out of the kitchen with the cups and plates in a mess. When he saw Xia Yao, he also stood up and asked slightly.
"Ah, no, you misunderstood."
When Gou Yu asked this, Xia Yao, who was worried that he might think she was not used to living here, smiled softly:
"Didn't I tell my family that I would come to the capital to live with Lingzi? I will go there once in a while so that my father won't worry."
Seeing the smile on her face, Gou Yu was slightly startled for a moment, then nodded as if he understood:
"Well, okay, sister Xia, please drive carefully on the road."
Hearing the sound of the door closing as three figures left, and finally only the three magical boys were left in the cabin, Gou Yu glanced at Fang Ran, who was lying on the ground side by side with Meng Lang, his belly already stretched out.
A little strange...
...
...
The white Jaguar had already driven out of the southern suburbs and returned to a luxurious community in the central city. He parked the car in the underground garage, got in the elevator and took Xia Yao back to his residence in the capital.
Ming Ling's usual residence is a private apartment that occupies one-third of the first floor. It has large floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the Capital University in the distance. It ranges from cheap furniture to expensive decorations in a gray and white style with a strong artistic design. sense of space and openness.
But in the final analysis, the reason why Ming Ling decided to buy it in the first place was because it was closer to the school.
The door was opened but no lights were turned on. The spacious living room was in front of a whole wall of floor-to-ceiling windows looking at the bustling capital city. The dim light of the city filled the room with dark and soft light.
"Lingzi, why don't you turn on the light?"
Xia Yao smiled and followed her into the house that she had been to during the summer vacation.
Without answering, he took off his high heels and threw his expensive bag on the sofa. Ming Ling turned around in the dark and slightly bright room, looked at her with a distressed and helpless look and sighed.
"Okay, don't hold on. If others can't see it, why can't I?"
The chuckle on his face was slightly startled, and Xia Yao gently scratched his cheek with his fingertips.
"Yeah, did you notice it? Did I show it so obviously..."
Ming Ling walked to her with bare feet, slowly passed her arms and held her in her arms, comforting her softly:
"Don't worry, only that handsome guy noticed a little bit, and..."
She patted Xia Yao's back gently, her voice lowered in a helpless whisper.
"Cry if you want, there's no one else here now."
Then after saying these words, Ming Ling felt Xia Yao hugging her, and something that had been tight seemed to have suddenly broken.
"Obviously... my junior is back today... I should be happy..."
The words were choked, the surface of the chuckle began to wrinkle, and Ming Ling patted her back without any accident.
"Hmm...I know you've been thinking about him coming back..."
She was choked with tears as she listened to Xia Yao's words that were trying to keep her smile. She slowly couldn't stand and hugged her and knelt down on the ground.
"but...."
The young man in a white adult's shirt, gently holding the obviously heavy bag, his broken hair blown by the evening breeze, smiled lightly at him, walked in front of him in the direction of the gorgeous night,
Even if he deliberately provokes the topic and dresses up beautifully, he will not be as panicked as before. He is less timid and has a gentle calm...
Let Xia Yao suddenly find out that Fang Ran is back this time...
"but...."
The moment tears wet Ming Ling's shoulders, she saw Xia Yao let go of her embrace, smiling beautifully but sadly.
"Junior seems to be getting further and further away from me..."
Where has it become different?
This made Ming Ling slightly stunned, and also felt distressed and depressed. She watched her best friend fighting for someone, watched her carefully hide her halo, watched her come to an unfamiliar city,
Watching her trying to make herself a little more ordinary and integrating into his daily life
I remembered what Xia Yao's tall and slender figure said to herself in front of the bonfire on the night of the bonfire party last month.
-'...Those reasons why... you can't reach it because of your ordinaryness...'-
-'...I just want him to like me...'-
"Oh, I told you a long time ago that you have to take the initiative to deal with that little coward. Don't you dislike him..."
In the dimly lit living room without turning on the lights, the girls who were each other's best friends knelt on the floor, wiping each other's tears with their sleeves.
"I lied to you, I seem to have fallen in love with my senior brother."
After hearing these soft words, Ming Ling saw Xia Yao in front of her smiling at herself with tears still in her eyes.
"The hopeless kind."
