Chapter 38: secretly

Maybe it's because of what happened today.
That night, Duan Xu had a dream.
Dreaming, he received an admission letter from Nanwu University. One week before the report, his mother Xu Ruoshu gave him money to prepare him for college, and was snatched by the so-called "creditors".
Dreamed that night.
The house at home has long been sold. They rented a one-bedroom house, and Xu Ruoshu slept in the room. He slept in the living room.
Duan Jiaxu found several tutors and part-time jobs during the summer and went home late every day.
When he returned home that day, he heard Xu Ruoshu calling.
She's calling Uncle. One, a relative who saw her pulling a child by herself and helped her a lot.
Phone in the living room.
Duan Jiaxu saw Xu Ruoshu dialed the phone and greeted the other party. Then, she smiled and said slowly: "Brother, my family is admitted to Nanwu University."
After saying this, she became silent, and seemed to find it difficult to speak, and did not speak again.
But everything that I want to say is like venting from this sentence.
Can't hide it.
Nanwu University, what a great university.
My son was admitted to such a good university.
But I have no money.
I didn't take good care of the money he made to work for college.
I want him to go to school.
Can you ... lend me a few thousand dollars.
The next moment, the uncle's scolding came from the phone. The quality of the receiver was not good, and the voice was noisy. As soon as he spoke, he spread throughout the living room: "Are you shameful! Is it difficult for you? What obligation do I have to help you? I have children to raise! To live! To borrow money late to late! Fuck! Get out! "
Duan Jiaxu immediately walked over, took the phone in her hand, and hung up.
The room was quiet.
Xu Ruoshu was stunned for a long time, suddenly covering her eyes, crying, and murmured repeatedly: "Mom sorry for you ... Mom sorry for you ..."
Before junior high school, Duan Jiaxu had never been short of money.
So he never felt how important money was.
But when the real problems come down.
He only knew that money could make a person make great changes in just a few years.
Duan Jiaxu watched the bright and confident mother in the past, gradually overwhelmed by these things, and became timid and inferior. Under the influence of these things, she became seriously ill and quickly became old.
Then Duan appreciated it.
At that time, the young adult just squatted in front of Xu Ruoshu and looked up at her. He bent his lips and smiled and said to her, "Mom, do you believe it? I can make all this money back in the future."
"..."
"You don't need to borrow money from others anymore. I will make my own money and I will support you." The boy said gently, "I can let you go back to the good old days."
"..."
and so.
Wait a second, OK?
Duan Jiaxu woke up from a dream.
It was still dark and the room was dark. He fell asleep, got up and left the room, filled the glass with water, and then took two ice cubes from the refrigerator and threw them.
It was just after three in the morning.
Duan Jiaxu stood at the dining table and picked up his mobile phone and glanced. In addition to the blocked group chat of the new news, it was only found that Qian Fei was going crazy in the WeChat group.
Qian Fei: [Brothers! 】
Qian Fei: [Lao Tzu! Yes! marry! It's up! 】
Qian Fei: [Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! 】
Qian Fei: [Lao Tzu! propose! !! !! !! !! !! Succeeded! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! 】
Comes with a bunch of emoticons.
Qian Fei: [I'm so excited I can't sleep and I must come up and tell you hahahahahahahahahaha! 】
Qian Fei: [Are you all asleep? ? 】
Duan Jiaxu returned a word: "No. 】
The next moment, the phone rang and Qian Fei called him.
Duan Jiax raised his eyebrows, took the cup, walked back to the sofa, and sat down.
"Lao Xu, why haven't you slept at this point?" Qian Fei's voice grinned, "You don't have sex."
Duan Jiaxu laughed softly and said slowly: "Hang up."
"..." Qian Fei said, "Wait. I haven't said anything yet! Do you know how I proposed? Isn't it New Year's Eve today? ..."
Duan Jiaxu leaned back and listened in silence.
After a while, Qian Fei had finished sharing his things, but he was still excited: "How about it? Niubi."
"Ok."
"Why don't you put a few farts tonight?"
"Huh? Maybe it's because you're getting married." Duan Jiaxu casually said, "It's a bit sad, didn't you say you wanted to make up with me?"
"..." Qian Fei said, "Can you stop disgusting me? What do I remember when I was drunk?"
Duan Jiaxu didn't joke anymore and laughed: "OK, congratulations brother."
"Well, right." The prospective married man immediately entered the matchmaker state, grinning, "Did you go back last time, did you go?"
"I'll just talk to you like that." Duan Jiaxu said lazily. "How many people did you talk to about this?"
"No, how can I never find it?" Qian Fei said, "Would you like to come to Nanwu? How many girls in our school like you? I will arrange a blind date for you. You can pedal a few boats here A few boats. "
Duan Jiaxu chuckled, "Give me up."
"I want to grow like you, my girlfriend changes one day."
"Aren't you afraid to let your prospective wife hear?"
"Isn't she here?" Qian Fei said, "I'm serious, don't say the right thing, you can't even have a favorite."
Duan Jiaxu heard.
Qian Fei was shocked: "I don't like it, do you like it?"
Hearing that, Duan Jiaxu was silent.
This is similar to the default, Qian Fei immediately said: "I fuck, there are circumstances."
"..."
"Who?"
Duan Jiaxue lied: "You don't know, it's a bit small."
"How small?" Qian Fei said, "It can't be born yet."
He laughed, "It's not that small."
"I won't talk about it when I'm a minor. If you dare not chase after you are an adult, I look down on you."
"Are you over excited? It's time to sleep." Duan Jiaxu didn't plan to talk about this topic anymore, said lightly, "Married people."
"You're finished!"
"Sleep."
Duan Jiaxue hung up the phone.
Afterwards, he drank the water in his hand, walked to the TV cabinet, picked up the photo with the childish, walked back to the room, and put it on the bedside table.
Duan Jiaxu stared for a few seconds.
It looks like a child.
What is he thinking?
I've been single for too long.
Duan Jiaxu sighed, tapped with his fingertips, and spit out three words slowly, as if reminding himself.
"Children."
Sang Zhi thought that tonight's praise was a bit weird. She later remembered it, and was a little worried whether she had reacted in a wrong way.
But he felt that if he knew her mind, his reaction would not be like that.
After New Year's Day, I thought about this again. Sang Zhi asked Duan Xun on WeChat if the woman had gone to him again, and he felt relieved after hearing his negative answer.
She didn't bother about it anymore and concentrated on preparing for the test.
The exam ends on the 20th.
Sang Zhi booked the plane at noon on the 21st in advance and planned to take a taxi that day and then take an airport bus nearby.
She was the first to go home in the dormitory.
The four said in advance, before everyone went home, find a night out together. Therefore, the four did not return to the dormitory after leaving the examination room, and went directly to a Japanese restaurant outside the school for dinner.
After dinner, Yu Xin proposed: "A new bar has been opened nearby, shall we play?"
Ning Wei blinked: "Can I bring my boyfriend?"
Yu Xin: "Okay."
Wang Ruolan: "Then I will ask my male together!"
There are several bars around here, and most of the customers are students, and occasionally I meet a few people I know. Another shop owner is a former graduate.
Sang Zhi went to the department once and had no opinion.
Yu Xin: "Well, Ruolan, have you caught up?"
"It's almost there." Wang Ruolan typed on his mobile phone and smiled, "I feel like he has the same meaning, and also told me to go home by car together."
Mulberry drank water.
"Well, in fact, I liked a little brother in that bar. You should also see the one who plays the guitar after a while." Yu Xin put his cheeks and hesitated, "I feel as long as I don't grow Ugly, I feel that women can chase men. "
Hearing this, the motion of Sanzi drinking water stopped.
Speaking of which, Yu Xin took a photo of his face with his mobile phone and said narcissistically, "I should be able to catch up if I go after it? I think I look pretty."
The other two coaxed.
Sanji picked up the chopsticks and ate the last sushi on the table.
Ning Wei turned her head, noticed her constant silence, and asked subconsciously, "Ah, Sang Sang, are you in a bad mood? Why don't you talk?"
"No." Sangzhi looked back and laughed. "I listen to you."
Probably because it was just opened, there were not many people in this bar, and it was not as noisy as I thought.
Ning Wei called her boyfriend over. Then her boyfriend called Jiang Ming. The others were almost in pairs, and naturally, Jiang Ming sat next to Sang Zhi.
Sang Zhi hasn't talked to him in person, and the usual communication is through WeChat. She glanced at him without feeling embarrassed, but she did not speak.
Jiang Ming has a clear face, a single eyelid, and a three-dimensional face. He was thin and tall, and laughed very clearly, like a big sunny boy.
The party played the dice.
Sangzhi doesn't play this, he didn't participate at all, he played the phone by himself. She was inexplicably in a bad mood, and didn't say much at night, just drinking the wine in front of her.
The color of this wine is very good, the taste is a bit strong, and it is a bit sweet.
Sang Zhi felt that the taste was a little strange and didn't suit her taste, but she ordered it and didn't want to waste it. She could barely drink it.
Jiang Ming did not continue to play anymore, came over to talk to her. He pointed to the wine in front of her and reminded him, "This wine is very high, can you drink it?"
"Is it high?" Sang Chi paused and touched his face. "Then I won't drink it."
Jiang Ming took another cup and said, "You drink this."
Sang Zhi felt a little dizzy after he knew it. She shook her head and whispered, "It's all right, I won't drink it. You drink it."
Jiang Ming didn't demand, "Would you like to drink water?"
"No thanks."
Sang Zhi looked around and wanted to ask Yu Xin if she would return to the dormitory with her. The next moment, the phone she was holding in her hand suddenly vibrated.
She looked down.
It was Duan Xuan who called her.
Sangzhi picked up: "Brother."
"Well, tomorrow morning at eight o'clock-" Before he finished speaking, Duan Jiaxu suddenly heard the movement and silence on her side, and then the words turned, "Where are you?"
"A bar near my school." Sanzi was a little uncomfortable, and he talked warmly. "I came with my roommate, but I'm going back."
Duan Jiaxu asked, "Are you going back alone?"
Sang Zhi: "I ask if my roommate can walk."
"Drinking?"
"Well." This childish dare not say honestly, "Just a little."
Duan Xia's voice faded: "The name of the bar?"
Sang Zhi couldn't remember it. He turned around and asked Xia Jiangming, "What's the name of this bar?"
Jiang Ming thought for a while: "It seems to be, it is August."
"Oh, thank you." Sang Zhi turned around and continued to talk to Duan Jiaxu, hesitantly, "It seems that it's eighth."
Duan Jiaxu was silent for a few seconds again: "Well. You sit inside for a while, I'm passing now."
Sangzhi snorted. Why didn't he come over suddenly when he didn't respond? He wondered, "What are you doing here, do you want to come and play?"
There was a crashing sound of Duan Xu closing the door, mixed with the breath he carried when he spoke, low and sexy: "Brother used to catch a drunkard."
"..."
Sangzhi felt a little stuffy in the bar. She put on her coat and said goodbye to the others: "I'll go back first, I haven't packed anything."
Jiang Ming also stood up: "I'll take you back."
"No," Sangzhi said vaguely. "My brother is waiting for me outside."
Jiang Ming froze, "Is your home here?"
"Not here." Sang Zhi blinked hard and waved, "But my brother works here."
She walked out of the bar.
It was extremely cold outside, and the sky was also covered with tiny velvet. The cold wind blew her spirits for a moment, sober, sucking her nose, she took gloves from her pocket, and put them on with scrutiny.
Sang Zhi rarely saw snow, and at this time also came to interest. She picked up a branch nearby and squatted on the floor with a matchstick painting.
She was a bit weak and crooked.
After squatting for a long time, Sangzhi still had a bit of vomiting, and then he sat directly on the ground.
Duan Jiaxu just arrived at this time.
He parked the car by the side of the road and got out of it. Pay attention to the childish sitting on the side of the road. Duan Jiaxu stumbled and walked over and asked: "Childish, why are you sitting here?"
"It seems to be wet." Sanzhi turned his head, and said, "The pants seemed to be wet."
Duan Jiax raised an eyebrow: "What?"
Sang Zhi wanted to get up, but didn't have the energy: "Brother, this snow is wet."
"..." Duan Jiaxu took a deep breath, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her up. "How much did you drink?"
Sang Zhi muttered, "Just half a cup."
"What kind of wine is half a glass?" Duan Jiaxu lowered his eyes and laughed. "And who brought you to the bar?"
"I'm an adult." After hearing the lesson in his words, Sang Zhi suddenly looked up, and then repeated it seriously, "I'm an adult."
"You can't be an adult--"
Sang Chi interrupted him: "Why not?"
Duan Jiaxu hesitated for a moment, then bent down to look at her, and whispered, "Why did Xiao Sangzhi lose his temper?"
Feeling grievance suddenly popped up, Sang Zhi somehow wanted to cry, talking with a bit of crying: "You said, when I grow up, I do whatever I want, no one cares about me."
"..."
"You said it yourself."
There are many things she wants to do that she must wait until she is an adult.
Just that one.
But as an adult, her courage seemed to have diminished.
She used to dare not tell him that she liked it.
Now, she has become so afraid to like it.
Obviously everyone at this age is very brave, go to the person you like and express your likes.
Why can't she just bear it.
I want to contact him less, and I'm afraid he's not going well alone.
"What's wrong?" Duan Jiaxu frowned. "Who bullied you?"
Mulberry wiped her tears with her gloves, and her voice was dull, "No."
She was groggy, and the road was unstable. She wanted to sit on the ground again, and was immediately grasped by Duan Xuan. Sang Zhi leaned against him and muttered, "I want to go home."
Duan Jiaxu was angry and funny: "Can you go back tomorrow?"
"I'm not comfortable." Sanzhi frowned, his voice slowed. "Brother, I want to vomit."
Duan Jiaxu took off her coat and put it in front of her: "then throw up."
Sangzhi tried it: "I can't vomit."
Duan Jiaxu whispered softly: "Then go sit nearby for a while?"
"I can't walk." Sang Zhi shook his head. "I won't go."
"Brother carries you."
Sangzhi stared at him. After a while, she suddenly began to weep, with an inexplicable temper: "I don't want to, I won't go."
"..." Duan Jiaxu said, "Then go to the car?"
"I do not want."
Duan Jiaxu inexplicably wanted to laugh: "So Xiao Sangzhi wants to air here?"
Sang Zhi shouldn't say what he said, as if he didn't hear it. She sniffed, and suddenly came out: "Brother, can I tell you a secret?"
"Ok?"
"I have a person who likes it," Sang Zhi said, his eyes narrowed, "but he just doesn't like me."
"..."
The angle of Duan Xu's mouth narrowed, and he couldn't keep his smile: "Who?"
Sang Zhi didn't answer.
"Your online dating object?" Duan Xu's throat knot rolled up and down, asking dumbly, "Or your school?"
Sang Zhi looked up at him, and remained silent for a while, his lips moved: "I won't tell you."
She likes what Duan praises.
Sang Zhi didn't tell anyone.
not a single one.
She went from like, giving up, and couldn't help but continue to like.
It's all her own business.
All she knows.
Duan Jiaxu asked, "Can't I talk to my brother?"
Sang Zhi wanted to say something, suddenly panic acid in his throat. She slumped against his chest as if she could not help but spit the filth from his mouth onto him.
"..."
It didn't take long for Sangzhi to stand up straight, as if a little more awake. Noticing what she had just done, she took a step back and said timidly, "I didn't mean it."
Afraid she fell, Duan Jiaxu reached out and helped her.
Sang Zhi broke away from him, took a few more steps, and squatted on the ground: "Don't kill me."
"..." Duan Jiax glanced at his clothes, took them off, and put the coat back on. He also crouched down in front of her, wiping her mouth with clothes, and said with interest, "Why am I murdering you?"
Sangzhi sobbed: "Don't scold me ..."
Duan praised: "Get up."
"I don't want it." Sang Zhi simply sat down on the ground again, looking stubborn, "You must scold me again ..."
"Don't scold you," Duan Xua said patiently, "get up, don't catch a cold."
Sang Zhi was still a little wary and remained motionless.
Duan Jiaxu frowned and asked, "And when did I scold you?"
Mulberry is silent.
"Where's the little drunkard?" Duan Jiaxu didn't get angry, and suddenly he narrowed his eyes and laughed. "Get up, my brother's clothes are dirty, I can't hold you."
Sangzhi lowered her head, her voice nasal: "So you don't care about me."
"Huh? I don't really care." Duan Jiaxu turned his back and crouched in front of her. "But I'm really reluctant."
"..."
"Come up," Duan Jiaxu said, "brother carries you."
