Chapter 982 (1/2)
Molly knew he had made a serious mistake. He shouldn't go to the girl.
She is not beautiful, but if you stare at her bright eyes, you can feel an unprecedented peace in your heart. Molly had never felt like that before. When he stood in front of the girl, he just felt warm all over, as if he were bathed in the warm spring light.
He is naturally insensitive to feelings, full of brotherhood, and doesn't know what love is, let alone what love is. But when Molly first saw the girl and her flustered eyes, Molly was deeply aware that he had fallen.
”Will I never see her again? Shall I tell my brother about her? If my brother knew about it, what would he think? What would he say? What would he do?” Molly hurried across the sidewalk and stood under the sign of Daming street before the red light came on. He wore a coat outside to cover his two prosthetic legs, which was quite strange compared with the pedestrians in short sleeved shirts.
The sun was burning overhead, Molly felt a little muggy, and sweat flowed down his temples.
”Should I tell brother about this...” Molly thought silently in his heart. He lowered his head and completely immersed himself in his own world.
”Hey! Hey! Wait a minute!”
Molly woke up like a dream and suddenly looked up. He saw that the girl was coming from across the street. The two people looked at each other quietly across the street. At this moment, Molly was completely addicted to complex emotions. Excited and nervous, Molly's palm began to sweat. He tightened his eyebrows and subconsciously pulled his collar.
”Wait for me.” the girl also seemed very nervous. He looked at the passing vehicles in the street, and his foot retracted again.
When the green light came on again, the girl ran quickly across the street until she came to Molly and looked up at him: ”I have something... Can I tell you?”
Molly didn't speak. The girl put her hands behind her, clenched them tightly, and asked carefully, ”do you have time?”
After a moment of silence, Molly nodded against his heart: ”yes.”
The girl glanced around and pointed to a tree lined path beside Daming Street: ”shall we go there?”
Molly looked at the Cultural Square in the other direction and hesitated. He wanted to go to the cultural square. He could talk to the girl without delaying the arrival of Li Qing and Qian Liming.
At this time, the girl lowered her head and continued, ”there is a big Gardenia tree on that road. I used to tell it when I had something on my mind.”
”OK.” Molly nodded. He was a little jealous of the tree for a moment.
”Come with me.” the girl shook her horse's tail, bypassed Molly and led the way.
Glancing at the cultural square, Molly turned and followed the girl. The two men kept a distance of five or six meters and walked into the quiet street one after another.
The girl's steps are very small and her walking posture is slightly stiff, but her speed is much faster than that of normal people. Molly followed her through the whole street, and the latter never spoke.
The Adam's apple rolled. Molly summoned up his courage, lowered his voice and asked, ”can I...”
”Ah!” the girl was startled and hurriedly turned around and stared at him with a frightened face, ”what did you say?”
”I... can I make a call? Brother is waiting for me...”
The flustered look dissipated slowly, and the girl smiled gently: ”no, I can't delay you much time.”
Molly looked around and said, ”where's that tree? Gardenia tree.”
”On the back street.”
”You just said on this road?”
The girl's face was stiff and she immediately put out her tongue: ”I forgot.”
Molly giggled: ”you're so stupid... What do you... Want to tell me?”
”I want to tell you...” the girl stood on tiptoe, but took two steps back. As soon as she spoke, a slim woman passed by, making her suddenly stop talking again.
Molly glanced at the woman coming up. The woman was wearing a black hat and carrying a leather bag of the same color. She was very beautiful, with a faint charming smile on her lips. The girl is not inferior to her, but in Molly's eyes, the former is clearly more dazzling.
”You look at me.” the girl frowned.
”HMM.” Molly turned his head foolishly, took his eyes away from the woman coming towards him, and gathered again on the girl's ordinary face with nervous color.
”I...” the girl opened her mouth slightly and took a small step back again.
