Chapter 3 (1/2)
This development is unexpected. She couldn't believe her eyes. Nervous and in a hurry, she almost hung up. She recovered her breath and picked up the phone.
The next second, the man's low voice came from that end.
”Who is it?”
The breath of reading stopped, fingers unconsciously picking the quilt. She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment.
And the man at that end was very patient and didn't rush or hang up.
For a long time, shunian said in an obscure voice, ”Hello, is that Xie Ruhe?”
I haven't spoken there for a long time. It's so quiet that I can't even hear the sound of breathing.
It's like putting your mobile phone far away, forgetting to cut off this sudden call. Don't care, also don't know the opposite person, is holding what kind of mood made this call.
It's still raining outside the window, splashing like rain, crash, accompanied by strong wind. With the memory of the rain, overlap, overlap together.
I don't know how long it took.
The man opened his mouth, his voice was low, cold and emotionless, like a cold coke suddenly pasted on his face, numb with cold.
”You have the wrong person.”
Shunian saw Xie Ruhe for the first time in such a rainy night. Are with a cool, between a breath, into the cold and humid taste.
It was in her second year of junior high school, in the small place of Shiyan town.
It's about twenty minutes' walk home from school.
Winter is coming and it's getting dark quickly. The light on the side of the road is not bright. There are small flying ants flapping their wings inside. The sound of rain in my ears is loud, and the water pits on the ground are bright, reflecting the light.
After school, shunian didn't want to go home too early. He finished his homework in the classroom, and then he left school. Holding an umbrella, she carefully avoided the puddles on the ground for fear of soiling her shoes.
She walked slowly. It was almost seven o'clock before she could see the water bridge near her home.
After crossing the bridge, you will arrive at the residential area where you live.
Shunian was just about to walk past when he heard the sound of abuse coming from the far end. She blinked, thought a little, and in a few seconds she superimposed the voice on a voice in her head.
It's uncle Li Hong who lives next door to her.
”Do you think you can do things?”?! If it wasn't for Yu Peng's introduction, I would have driven you away! ” Li Hong was wearing a raincoat, pinching his waist and spitting at Xingzi. ”Now these goods are all wet. How can I explain?”
Smell speech, book read stand on tiptoe, side head looks.
In front of Li Hong stood a tall, thin boy with his head down. Loose blue and white school uniform coat, zipper did not pull, revealing the inside of the school uniform short sleeves, pants wear on him appears to be a little short, water drops down the trouser legs.
His face was covered with rain and fog, and only a vague outline could be seen.
I don't know what's going on in the book, so I walk slowly over there.
The closer you go, the clearer you can see the situation over there.
Behind them was a small tricycle with several cartons on it. There was a roof on the tricycle, but there was a hole in it. The rain leaked from it, and the skin of the box was wrinkly.
Shunian knows the car. It's Li Hong's. The ceiling was broken.
Li Hong is still scolding, and even begins to thank Ruhe's shoulder with a domineering look.
”Anyway, today's loss will be offset by your salary!”
Xie Ruhe was pushed back a step, but still did not say a word, head low, from this angle can only see his exposed nose and lips, jaw curve rigid, masseter muscle tight. All over the body.
In this weather, it's like it's going to condense into ice.
The ugly curse continued.
During this period, shunian went to the two men and gave half of the umbrella to Xie Ruhe.
She is very small, her face is small, her skin is white and smooth, her facial features are delicate and delicate. She looks like a porcelain doll.
Shunian looked up at the domineering Li Hong in front of him, and whispered: ”Uncle Li.”
Seeing shunian, Li Hong's expression is even worse.
”Go home, little boy.”
Shunian immediately corrected: ”I'm not a kid.”
Li Hong gave a sneer.
Shunian pointed to the location of the tricycle and said seriously: ”I remember that the ceiling of your car was already broken. This is not the tool you provided him. Is there a problem? You can't leave him unpaid just because of that. ”
Li Hong was upset when she pierced his mind. He quibbled: ”I gave the goods to him. If there is something wrong with the goods, of course I'm looking for him. Can't I let myself suffer from this dumb loss?”
Shunian was stunned. He didn't go around and wanted to continue to reason with him.
”But this car -”
”come on, don't talk about it. It's boring.” Li Hong took out his ears and sat on the tricycle with his feet raised. ”What's the matter to preach to me? There's something wrong with his brain.”Shunian pursed his lips and said, ”don't swear.”
”What's the matter with you? If there is a problem with the goods, we should find the person who delivers them. That's the truth with me. What are you talking to me about? ” Li Hong turned his head and yelled, ”what a bad luck
After that, he didn't wait for shunian to speak, stepped on the pedal and left quickly.
There were only two of them left on the water bridge, quiet and speechless.
Shunian scratched his head, but there was no solution. He had to look at Xie Ruhe and asked, ”do you live here?”
Without speaking or looking at her, he turned and walked in the opposite direction of the residential area.
The book read Leng, hurriedly followed up.
His steps are bigger than hers, so shunian has to trot to keep up with him.
The shoes splashed on the puddle, the shoes were stained with stains, and all the careful results along the way disappeared. Shunian was worried. He could not help grabbing the corner of his coat. He was a little angry: ”Hello!”
Hearing this, Xie Ruhe stopped.
This action, let the book read light fire immediately dissipated.
Remembering his impolite roar, shunian frowned in chagrin. She pointed to the handle and whispered, ”can you help me with this?”
Shunian raised his eyes, just in line with his vision.
His bangs were long and half covered his eyes. So I don't really see it in my eyes.
But it seems to be confused about her behavior.
But this time, Xie Ruhe responded to her words. After a moment of silence, he obediently took the umbrella in her hand.
Shunian whispered thanks and watched him secretly as he opened the zipper of his schoolbag.
The boy's hair was wet, and the drops fell down the end of his hair. His face was very pale. The eyelashes are thick and long, like two small fans. Eyes like paint, clear and distinct. The bridge of the nose is straight and straight, and the lower lip is purplish with cold.
He didn't have a large vocabulary. I didn't know how to describe him.
The word that comes to mind is ”beautiful.”.
Although gloomy, but it is a very beautiful young man.
In fact, she has nothing to do, just want to give him an umbrella.
Shunian thought about it. He took out a mango jelly from his schoolbag and put it in front of him like a comfort.
