Chapter 47 (1/2)
When Zhang Qingqing heard that I scratched myself with a beer bottle to scare off several office men, a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes, but the expression on her face didn't change. She still pulled a pretty face and turned her mouth, humming: ”I don't have the ability, but I prefer to be strong.”
In the past, when Zhang Qingqing said that I was a waste and incompetent, I always felt deep disgust and contempt, but this time I didn't. It may be because of the inadvertent movement and worry in her eyes, which made me feel that her words didn't have much taste of ridicule me, and even vaguely felt her concern for me, It's a bit like a wife blaming her husband for not drinking so much.
I scratched my head and said, ”the situation was a little dangerous at that time. I had no other way but to pretend to frighten those guys. Fortunately, they were office workers and were timid. If they were mixed with society, my set would certainly not work.”
Zhang Qingqing was still curled up in the quilt with only one head exposed. She suddenly saw a brand-new Durex condom on the table at the head of the bed, and then her face changed in an instant: ”Chen Yu, you even brought this kind of thing and said you didn't have a good intention.”
I quickly explained, ”I didn't buy this gadget. It was sent by a social volunteer when I came out of the nightclub. It comes from the same source as the suit you bought last weekend.”
Zhang Qingqing was stunned for two seconds, then her eyes fell on my face and asked, ”do you know?”
I'm very embarrassed at the moment. I touched my nose and said embarrassed, ”well, Zhang Qingqing, I went too far last weekend. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me -”
”I don't listen, I don't listen...” Zhang Qingqing's woman has a little temper. Her revenge character is clear. She doesn't want to forgive me so easily. She pointed to the door and said, ”it's already dawn. Go back to school yourself. I won't forgive you.”
I look at my cell phone. It's 6 a.m. and it's half an hour before the school wake-up bell. However, it seems that Zhang Qingqing doesn't intend to forgive me for the time being. I can only be dejected and ready to leave.
But as soon as I took a few steps, Zhang Qingqing suddenly stopped me: ”Oh, Chen Yu, wait --”
”What's the matter?”
I looked back in surprise, and then saw Zhang Qingqing stretched out her white right hand from the quilt anxiously, calling me to wait. I looked at her huddled in the quilt and suddenly understood that her clothes and skirts were vomited by her last night and were still thrown in the bathroom. Now she has only one set of underwear on her. If I go, how can she go back by herself?
Zhang Qingqing said angrily, ”I have no clothes to wear now. Buy me a suit to wear, otherwise how can I leave this hotel?”
I looked at the bright sky outside the window and said with a bitter smile, ”now it's just dawn. Where does a clothing store open so early? I just want to buy it, but I can't buy it.”
Zhang Qingqing pondered a little and said, ”then take a car home and help me get a suit of clothes.”
I couldn't help bargaining with her and said, ”Qingqing, if I help you get your clothes back, can you consider accepting my apology and forgive me?”
Zhang Qingqing was very proud and charming. She gave me a deep look, raised her delicate face and said: ”Chen Yu, I'll be honest with you. I've never been so angry or humiliated. You didn't care about my feelings last Monday and even scolded me as a bitch. I will never forgive you. Do you want to help me get my clothes?”
After listening to Zhang Qingqing's words, I felt guilty. After all, the words I said last week because of a misunderstanding were really heartbreaking. I nodded and said, ”I see. I'll help you go home and get your clothes. Bye.”
After that, I turned around and was ready to leave. I didn't know whether it was my lost look that made Zhang Qingqing unbearable, or the shocking scar on my left arm that made Zhang Qingqing think of my kindness to her on weekdays. Zhang Qingqing couldn't help shouting at me again: ”Chen Yu.”
”Huh?”
Zhang Qingqing turned her eyes and said in a casual tone, ”if you behave better in the future, maybe I will consider forgiving you.”
After listening to her words, I was stunned at first, and then the whole person recovered his anger. I wanted to ask how I could perform well? But I still didn't ask, because it seemed that I was too stupid to ask.
I left the hotel with a little joy. What I didn't know was that at the moment I just closed the door and went out, the face held by Zhang Qingqing immediately melted like spring snow in the sun. There was a thick smile in her eyes and a little proud hum: ”Last week, I dared to roar with me and run away from home. My temper has gone up. If I don't torture you well, I won't call Zhang Qingqing.”
Back in Zhangjiakou, my father-in-law and mother-in-law had got up and went out for a walk in the park, which also avoided my embarrassment when I saw them.
