The Boyfriend Who I’ve Never Met

After so many days, the two talked again, but for a while, neither of them spoke much.

In the long silence, Xie Tao seemed to be able to hear his shallow breathing.

Later, Xie Tao sniffed and finally stopped crying. As if hesitated for a long time, she suddenly asked carefully: "Can I ask you a question?"

"Yeah." His voice was still very soft, as if he had unconsciously reduced all the harshness and sharpness, adding a bit of unspeakable softness as clear as the wind.

Xie Tao squeezed the phone close to her ear and bit her lip. She said, "Aren't you...you don't like me?"

In fact, in such a short period of time, Xie Tao thought about whether she really wanted to ask him that.

These days, she has already had many speculations in her heart.

As long as she didn't mention a word at this moment, they might still be as peaceful as before, or everything could go on in such a muddle-headed manner.

But she can't.

There are some things she has to figure out.

When Wei Yun heard this sentence from her, he was startled first, and only after a while, he said, "Why ask?"

He didn't answer directly. It sounded in Xie Tao's ears, as if faintly certain, she tightened her lips, her eye circles slowly turning red.

"On my birthday, were you drunk too?" She took a deep breath.

"Never."

"Then why would you... respond to me?"

But hearing her words, Wei Yun lowered his eyes, and there was a moment of silence.

why?

What Wei Yun cannot deny at this moment is that the reason why he did not refuse at that time was indeed for another purpose.

It was to find out the mysterious person who was hiding in the dark and trying hard to take his life. It was to find out the connection between this bronze pendant and the mysterious light curtain that he occasionally glimpsed since childhood... Eliminate all the factors of instability, but it is not because of liking her.

At that time, he thought so.

But at this moment, he couldn't really blurt out the truth like this.

Wei Yun couldn't describe his inner feelings at this moment, like guilt he hadn't had in a long time, and it seemed mixed with many unexpected and unfamiliar emotions, which made him feel a little confused when facing her interrogation at this moment.

And his sudden silence seemed to be a silent answer to Xie Tao at this moment.

Maybe she should have noticed it a long time ago.

He never revealed his specific address, and rarely mentioned his own affairs to her. He has always been so mysterious. Between him and her, there will always be clouds, mountains and mists, which seem to be farther away than thousands of mountains and rivers. the distance.

Xie Tao thought, maybe even the drunken talk she blurted out that night was wrong.

This is two people who have never met before, even though he helped her step by step to get justice from those school violence perpetrators when she was the most helpless and most confused; even though he was always the most uncomfortable with her He gave her speechless comfort in his own way; even in every lonely day when she came to Nanshi, he made her a little bit more in the city she had desperately wanted to escape from. Peace and stability.

Like a dim yellow street lamp that was always silent, he was always reticent and cold, but the light and shadow of such a light and scattered shining on her body was still warm.

From when she was completely disappointed in her mother, in this world, Xie Tao believed that she was the only one.

Without support and warmth, she walked out of Zheng's house on New Year's Eve that year and sat on a bench with thin snow all night long.

From that day on, she was really alone.

But even if time goes by and the years go by, how can a person really get used to being alone?

So when she meets warmth, she will want to grasp the warmth instinctively.

Xie Tao also didn't know how she felt about Wei Yun in her heart, but from the time when she became more and more curious about him, everything was already unclear.

And the quiet heartbeat that night was true.

that's enough.

Only now, she found that it seemed that he was not in the same mood as her.

"I was serious,"

Through tears, Xie Tao looked at the night out of the glass window. Her expression was a bit erratic. After a long while, she said softly, "But it seems that you are not."

The girl's faint voice trembled a little, as if she couldn't help but leaked a little bit of crying.

At that moment, Wei Yun heard her sniffing and then said, "If you really haven't liked me, then, what I said that day, you...you have never heard it."

Saying such a sentence, Xie Tao didn't know how much courage she had put in.

She knew what the consequences would be if she did this, but she had to do it.

There is no better choice than this.

Xie Tao told herself in the bottom of her heart.

Those mysterious couriers, his different ways of speaking, and even his ignorance of many things in modern society, these things went back and forth in her mind many times.

He seemed so mysterious and untouchable, which started to make her retreat for a moment.

So why not let everything go back to square one?

Perhaps this is a better thing for him.

Anyway, he never took it seriously.

"then?"

Wei Yun listened to these words in silence, and didn't say anything until this moment.

His voice was always cold and flat, with no waves, Xie Tao couldn't feel the change in his emotions through the phone.

Perhaps, he hasn't changed at all.

"Then?" Xie Tao was dumbfounded, and reacted for a while, as if she didn't understand the meaning of what he said.

After reacting for a while, she said, "What else then?"

She wiped the tears from her face, as if a little puffed up, "I want to blacken you!"

"Never talk to you again..."

"You are very irritating when you speak, and I don't want to be angry with you anymore!"

"And your bag of gold, who wants your things?"

"Don't think how good you are. I think I was definitely drunk and confused... You didn't worry about it, I haven't put it in my heart yet."

"Anyway,"

She talked a lot, and finally she moved her lips, and there were tears in her eyes. She said, "Just be me, I haven't said those things..."

Hearing the girl's slight choking voice, and hearing her intermittently saying so many "depreciating" him, his eyebrows became softer and softer inexplicably.

Like ice and snow that has not melted all year round, there are finally some signs of melting.

When she heard these words, the heart in his chest seemed to be stung by something.

Haven't you ever moved your heart?

Wei Yun thought that he should have never been moved.

But at this moment, the unspeakable emotions in his heart still made him unable to calm down.

He thought he was awake enough and thought that everything was under his control, but in fact, maybe everything was different from the time he gave birth to the little girl in compassion.

Unlike the noble girls in the entire Yingdu, Wei Yun had never met a girl like her.

Talking tuberculosis, troublesome, not knowing how to be reserved, not polite, and greedy.

But at the same time, she is also a girl who dares to give everything for her friends and does not ask for the slightest return.

When she had a dispute with others and almost lost her life, Wei Yun remembered that he had asked her, was he afraid?

She just replied: "I didn't think so much."

During the interactions with her, Wei Yun knew very well that she was actually a very courageous girl, and to others, she had always looked weak and deceiving.

But it happened to be her that made Wei Yun see her unexpectedly bravery.

Wei Yun didn't know how her world followed the so-called rules that were different from his world, but he also noticed that it seemed that in her world, there were not too many restrictions on women.

When he knew that she seemed to be struggling, from the lines of her words, he probably knew all the efforts she had put in for life.

Wei Yun had also been wandering for ten years. He was used to seeing the world's ugliness and ugliness. He also knew very well how difficult it is to live alone in this world.

Like him, she is alone.

Wei Yun almost never heard her mention her family.

She never attached to anyone, and never accepted too many gifts. She was tougher than he thought.

So he didn't know when, he gradually became tolerant of her talking, and even for her momentary appetite, he asked Qi Mingxu's cook to the National Teacher's House.

This is very different from what he would do.

Even if he was aware of it, he always avoided it deliberately.

After losing contact with her these days, he couldn't help thinking a lot.

And some things, after all, he can do whatever he wants.

But like a passerby who has been walking for too long in the endless eternal night, for a moment, he actually began to look forward to the sky and water.

So the feeling of compassion in the moment, I don't know since when, it has gradually changed.

"But I heard it."

His voice fell into the astrolabe and reached her ears clearly.

In such a dark night, in the endless silence all around, this young man who seemed to have always been calm and unwavering would blurt out because of a momentary impulse.

In the next moment, he stood in front of the bookcase, facing the heavy lights and the night breeze coming from outside the window lattice, when he lowered his eyes, his eyelashes like crow feathers trembled.

The knuckles suddenly tightened, and the brush was snapped by him in an instant. When it landed on the book case, it splashed with the deep ink in the stone inkstone and stained the letter paper on the case, leaving dots and dots on the letter paper. .

"How can I easily take back what I said myself?"

When his cold voice came and fell in Xie Tao's ears, she was stunned while holding the phone.

"Xie Tao."

In the dimly lit room, she was sitting at the desk in front of the glass window and heard him call her name so clearly.

She sat there blankly.

At that moment, her breathing was stagnant, and her heart shook suddenly.

The author has something to say: Xie Tao: Pull black! Must be blacked out!

Wei Yun: Give it a try :)
