Dating After Divorce
Chapter 54: (one more)
Xu Xian returned the key to Zhou Ruguang and was about to leave. Just as she moved, she saw the teacher's daughter pursing her lips.
It's a smile that's almost imperceptible.
Subconsciously, the movement of his feet slowed down a bit.
Pei Yi seized the second gap, reached out to hold Zhou Ruguang's arm, and asked a question affectionately.
"Has Dad had dinner yet?"
"Is Dr. Xu free? Why don't you join us?"
It was only the second time we met that Pei Yi invited her to dinner, and Xu Xian couldn't help but look a little surprised.
Zhou Ruguang didn't find it strange, after all, he had praised Xu Xian's talent and hard work in front of the Pei family more than once.
Even the staff of the hospital and the teachers and students of Haida Medical College knew that Xu Xian was his most optimistic student in recent years.
Being able to take Xu Xian to see Pei Yi's concert is enough to show that he values Xu Xian.
The interview had just ended, so naturally he didn't have lunch.
Hearing Pei Yi's words at this moment, he also looked at the girl outside the door.
"Let's go together without eating."
Xu Xian knew about the Pei family's situation.
Pei Yi has stayed abroad all the year round, and it is rare to come back once. As an outsider, she does not want to destroy the family time of the other party and her father eating together.
Without any hesitation, she shook her head and politely declined the offer.
"have eaten."
"Don't disturb the teacher and Miss San."
Zhou Ruguang nodded, without insisting, put the key back in his pocket, and left with Pei Yi.
Xu Xian stood at the door of the office and watched the backs of the two get farther and farther away. When she came to the corner, she saw the long-haired girl in a white dress and turned her head to look at herself.
Those eyes, fluttering, and revealing a unique pride, are very special.
Xu Xian has never seen such a contradictory temperament, arrogant and elegant, like a born noble.
Even Pei Yi, who was playing the piano in the concert hall of 10,000 people when they met for the first time——
She has never felt that way.
***
In the old building, Luo Zhen was still uneasy about the painkillers he found.
The silver bells in the house, she searched online, were indeed decorations.
A set of five small bells, connected by a thin silver chain in the middle, hangs on the wall, looks good, but unfortunately the sound is too loud.
The five bells are connected together, and when the wind blows, the movement is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Many people, like Ning Rou, thought it was too noisy, so they took off the iron core inside and made it a hollow bell that couldn't make a sound.
Luo Zhen raised his arm slightly, and his fingertips touched the cold silver bell on the white wall.
The outside of the bell is very clean without any dust, which means that Ning Rou will clean it regularly, but since it is an ornament, why should it be hung on the bottom of the wall where no one can see it?
She couldn't figure it out.
Because of these two things, not only did she not even want to leave the door, she was also in no mood to eat.
In a blink of an eye, it was half past two in the afternoon.
When Ning Rou pushed the door and came in, what she saw was this scene——
Luo Zhen sat on the bed with his legs crossed, his chin supported, and his head raised. His long black curly hair was draped along his shoulders. He was wearing only a loose burgundy long-sleeved shirt and two long, jade-white flawless legs. Outside, only the hem of the shirt hides a little spring.
It was so hot in the room that she obviously didn't expect Luo Zhen to be still at home.
After opening the door, he froze at the door for more than ten seconds before entering.
"Have you never been out?"
Luo Zhen was also shocked when Ning Rou suddenly appeared.
Based on what she knew about Ning Rou, if something very important hadn't happened, Ning Rou would never have been absent from work.
"Why did you come back so early today?"
The two spoke almost simultaneously.
Luo Zhen got out of bed, the hem of his shirt fell down, barely covering his legs.
She walked towards the door step by step with her bare legs and shoes on.
"I didn't go out."
"The window was windy, and I wiped my body with cold water every half an hour, and it wasn't very hot."
She lowered her eyes and explained to Ning Rou in a low voice. After speaking, she unbuttoned the cuffs and rolled up the sleeves, as if a child had won a certificate and asked the parents for credit, and there was some pride in her tone.
"look--"
Ning Rou lowered her head when she heard the sound, and sure enough, Luo Zhen's arm had returned to normal.
She wanted to look away, but her eyes unconsciously stared at the white flower's leg for a few seconds, and when she raised her head again, a thin layer of red had appeared on her face.
Luo Zhen was wearing the uniform of the staff of the western restaurant where she used to work.
It's obviously work clothes, and it feels completely different when worn on Luo Zhen and on her.
She didn't dare to look any further, and quickly averted her eyes.
Thinking that two masters would come over soon, she didn't dare to let Luo Zhen stay in the room dressed like this.
After putting down the bag in her hand, she immediately went to the closet to find a pair of half-new denim shorts and stuffed it into Luo Zhen's hands.
"Someone will come later, change it."
Luo Zhen was stunned when he heard the sound, and did not enter the bathroom, just put on his pants in front of Ning Rou.
"Who's coming?"
No wonder Ning Rou would leave work early, it turned out to be someone coming from home.
Luo Zhen took a step forward, and the distance between the two became closer.
Ning Rou pursed her lips, raised her eyes to look at the woman in front of her, and rolled the prepared answer in her throat, but she couldn't say anything. It took a long time before she answered softly.
"You'll know when you come."
Her face was a little red, and she looked shy and embarrassed.
Luo Zhen frowned and didn't ask any more questions.
She watched Ning Rou go to the bathroom to wash her hands, and when someone came out, she handed over the bell in her hand.
"what is this?"
"I saw it under the wall, at the table and at the head of the bed."
The moment Ning Rou saw the bell, her expression changed slightly, and some long-forgotten memories flooded her mind.
Ning Baobao has been in poor health since birth, and is always prone to crying. Because of his poor physique, his cry is smaller than that of ordinary children.
Her ears were sick at that time, and she often couldn't hear her daughter's voice when she was cooking during the day and washing clothes at night.
I had no choice but to buy these bells and hang them all over the house, and then use a rope to tie the bell to my daughter's hand.
In this way, Ning Baobao can find the problem in time as long as she shakes her hand.
This situation continued until Ning Baobao could babble and call her mother, and later, Ning Baobao learned to walk again, and she no longer needed these bells, so she took off the cores in the middle of the bells.
That period of time can be said to be the most difficult day in the past five years.
Those bells not only witnessed the hardships of life, but also witnessed the love that she and Ning Baobao cuddled with to survive.
Every time she moved, she took them away and hung them in their original position.
Hearing Luo Zhen's question at this moment, she hesitated for a while before giving an answer.
"It's a baby's toy."
"She couldn't walk at that time. I couldn't watch her all the time. I was afraid that she would fall off the bed, so I put a cushion on the ground and let her play on the ground."
"The bell was hung too high for her to catch, so she hung more at the bottom."
Ning Rou was afraid that Luo Zhen would be worried, so she didn't say anything about her ear illness.
Her answers were all true.
For the young baby Ning, most of the time, those bells that make sounds when the wind blows are indeed small toys——
The little toy that allows her to see her mother right away.
A very reasonable explanation, Luo Zhen no longer doubted, but the empty bottle of painkillers in the trash can still became a small lump in her heart.
She still wanted to ask, but also knew that she couldn't ask too much at once.
After struggling for two minutes, he didn't say anything.
The short time the two talked, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house, as if someone was moving something, and the sound of the cardboard box rubbing on the ground could be heard.
Before someone knocked on the door, Ning Rou took the initiative to open the door.
Not long after, two men in overalls carried a large rectangular cardboard box into the house.
Luo Zhen stood beside the bed and read the words on the box clearly——
It's air conditioner.
Ning Rou got off work early and went to the electrical store to buy an air conditioner.
Ning Rou, who worked two jobs a day, worked hard to make money, saved money for her daughter to go to school and saw a doctor, was reluctant to eat or wear, but for her, she installed an air conditioner in her home for the first time.
In an instant, her heart was sore and bitter, sore and painful.
She thought that she had paid a lot to Ning Rou, but Ning Rou had paid more for her.
Ning Rou didn't have any money, but she could even use up her few savings for her.
She couldn't not be moved.
Inexplicably, the nose gushed out some sourness, and the eyes were also unconsciously red.
The two masters at the door looked at the structure of the house and asked Ning Rou where she wanted to install the air conditioner.
Ning Rou didn't understand this, the air conditioner was bought for Luo Zhen.
After thinking for a few seconds, she raised her feet, came to the side of the bed, and asked Luo Zhen softly.
"Alo, where do you think it's appropriate to put the air conditioner?"
Her voice was thin and soft, and when she spoke, her tone was relaxed and cheerful.
Luo Zhen lowered his eyes and set his eyes on the smiling gray eyes. The emotions in his heart turned back and forth, sometimes sweet and sometimes sour.
Ning Rou is a serious person. Whether it is a hard day or a happy day, she cherishes and treats it equally.
She doesn't like to complain, she doesn't like to talk to people about her pain, and even her ability to digest pain is far beyond ordinary people.
Her heart seems to be unable to keep bitterness, only sweetness.
It was so sad last night that she cried, but today, she has become the gentle, obedient woman who likes to smile with pursed lips five years ago.
Looking at that clean and delicate face, Luo Zhen's eyes turned a little red again.
She couldn't figure out how there could be a woman like Ning Rou in the world.
Fragile and tough.
The more she understood, the more distressed she felt.
Her lips moved, but no sound came out.
It wasn't until Ning Rou took the initiative to stretch out her hand and lead her to the master before she regained her senses.
"Alo, come on, okay?"
Ning Rou still relies on her.
This kind of knowledge made her feel at ease, and it also made her emotions calm down in silence.
Considering that Ning Baobao was too young and in poor health, the air conditioner was finally installed in the center of the room.
Because two masters came, it only took two hours to install the air conditioner.
When the master left, it was exactly half past four in the afternoon.
When Ning Rou closed the door, there was still a slight smile on her face.
She picked up the remote control and turned on the air conditioner.
Immediately, the temperature was adjusted to twenty-seven degrees.
This is the most suitable temperature for Luo Zhen's body.
After five years of separation, she still kept everything about Luo Zhen firmly in her mind.
Including the medicine Luo Zhen wants to take, including the honey water that Luo Zhen likes, and the temperature that is most suitable for Luo Zhen's body.
These are all insignificant details that Luo Zhen has never paid attention to or cherished in his three-year marriage life.
Luo Zhen sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking at the woman under the air conditioner, the expression on her face was calm, and she could not see any emotion.
It was not until the woman put down the remote control in her hand that she finally released her red lips and called out softly.
"Softly."
Too familiar name, too familiar tone.
For a moment, Ning Rou even thought she had returned to five years ago.
She stood beside the table, stunned before turning around, her eyes pierced through the air-conditioning, and looked at the woman sitting beside the bed.
Luo really looks, and is originally a glamorous type.
Wine red suits her very well.
Just sitting there with your body upright and not having to do anything makes it very attractive.
Perhaps, the word moving is not accurate enough.
It should be said, is a hook.
Ning Rou just glanced at it from a distance and took a step back.
Luo Zhen didn't see her movements, stretched out his hand, and patted beside him.
"come over."
Very gentle voice.
It was obviously not an order, but Ning Rou still obediently opened her legs and walked over step by step.
"What's wrong?"
"Can't this temperature be okay?"
Ning Rou thought that Luo Zhen's preferences had changed, and frowned slightly.
The more concerned he was, the more dry Luo Zhen's heart became.
She shook her head, did not speak, and patted the bed again.
Ning Rou understood the hint, bit her lip, and sat down.
For no reason, she was a little nervous.
The new air conditioner cools quickly and the temperature drops quickly.
Surrounded by cool air-conditioning, it is very comfortable to blow on the skin.
As soon as Ning Rou sat down, Luo Zhen moved closer to her.
The upper body of the two is sideways, and the faces of the other are also reflected in their eyes.
The distance in the middle is only a little bit, and even breathing, I can't tell who is who.
Ning Rou looked at Luo Zhen, but before she could react, a painful and depressed low voice sounded in her right ear.
"I am sorry."
It's an apology.
She didn't understand, and was about to ask, but she didn't expect that before the words were spoken, Luo Zhen's lips pressed up.
The four lips were caught off guard and stuck together.
Just for a second, and immediately released.
The time was too short, but Ning Rou still felt how violent the trembling came from Luo Zhen when those red lips fell.
In that trembling, hidden is the deep love, and—
Even Luo Zhen himself couldn't put out the raging fire.
Ning Rou's face slowly turned red.
She couldn't help biting her lip, her heart beating fast.
The mood has not yet calmed down, and there is another apology in the ear.
"I am sorry."
Ning Rou knew why Luo Zhen was apologizing.
But she wasn't angry.
Because she also likes Luo Zhen, and the kiss just now——
Not even a kiss.
She raised her eyes, looked at Luo Zhen again, and saw a secret and turbulent restraint through those clear and cold eyes.
She could understand what restraint represented.
After all, she was in the same situation last night.
How could she blame Luo Zhen?
Luo Zhen is much stronger than her.
She shook her head, bent her lips towards Luo Zhen, then smiled, and slowly put her head on Luo Zhen's shoulder.
"It does not matter."
"I'm not angry."
"Last night, I owed you a kiss."
"Now, let's get even."
