C224 (2/2)
The road was still as wide as ever. The taxi stopped in front of the school. I paid the driver and got off with my bag in my hand.
Everything was the same as before.
”Congratulations!”
A man came so early to wait for me?
I was stunned. What was there to be happy about? Bidding away or stealing, avoiding or passing by without any reason.
”I can finally enter the Wealthy Class. My reputation is really big.”
The person beside the man roared with laughter.
Ignore.
However, there was one thing different. There were fewer people blocking the school entrance today.
In addition, they were all watching from afar and never approaching.
Ignore.
Wasn't it better not to be harassed?
I'm not really a pussy, so there won't be so many people around me all day long.
It was probably because there was no point in waiting for too long.
I also think it's rather boring, it's best if they leave.
After the second period, Zhao Yun and I headed for the door. Zhou Qingyun was standing at the door of the classroom.
Hm?
I frowned.
What's wrong?
Today, it seemed a little strange.
Was there some new accident?
Zhou Qingyun and Nasser at the school gate were both abnormal? It seemed to be true. There was a new accident.
However, what was there to be afraid of?
Following Zhou Qingyun, I left my classroom and went straight to the research room. Zhou Qingyun closed the door and stood in front of me, looking at me.
I looked back at her.
Her face was filled with suppressed disbelief, suspicion, and fury, as if she hated herself for failing to meet expectations … Her expression is so strange. Maybe she didn't look like what I saw. Maybe what she said wasn't accurate, but … I have a bad feeling.
Zhou Qingyun, who had always been calm and collected, had always been very good to me. How could this be?
What is it? Zhou Qingyun pushed me, telling me to sit down.
Her behavior made me feel even weirder.
”What are your plans?” What do you think? ”
Zhou Qingyun asked me. She asked with such estrangement and indifference, instead of the gentleness of an old grandma, it was anger and resentment. Maybe I didn't understand it correctly.
I looked at her. I didn't feel good, but I couldn't think of anything to make her so angry.
”It's been four months, don't you know? Four months... ”You …”
Zhou Qingyun raised her hand and then slowly put it down. She hugged her chest and hugged it tightly, as if she was suppressing the anger in her heart.
I was still confused, but as her gaze shifted downwards, I noticed that her gaze was fixated on my stomach …
My stomach, my stomach... I... A bolt from the blue! Me, jumping up, no, no! I shook my head. No!
”You really don't know? Are your months off normal? ”You're not bad at biology, you're not bad at physical hygiene, you have a little common sense …”
My mind has already automatically shut down my hearing. Zhou Qingyun's words, Zhou Qingyun's people, I can't hear them, I …
I stood there quietly, digging with my fingers. My body was trembling. I didn't know what to grab on to, nor did I know what to dig for.
It was just that he wanted to get a feel for it, a real feeling.
He raised his palm, causing his fingers to ache. The ten fingers of his hand were linked to his heart. He seemed to feel it.
His breathing stopped and he felt stifled. He couldn't move his breath up and down, and his chest felt so stuffy.
Am I drowning? I can't find a straw, I can't find a direction, no, there's nothing.
Yin Yijie wasn't here. Where did he go? I gave it to him last year, and today we haven't been together for four months, except for that ridiculous little gathering.
Four months, more than four days.
Four months, there was no mistake. Four months …
”Four months …”
Physiological hygiene class, I learned it, I know it.
Four months, four months, I …
He looked down at his stomach. Nothing could be seen.
But, I know, my waist is thick.
After three months, the uterus moves up.
Breast development, a little uncomfortable.
I thought it was eating too much, or the corset was too tight, but it wasn't.
Four months, I have a child, I came from the child, I, my child... Is this true?
His mind went blank and he closed his eyes. He didn't know what to think. Even though he was struggling to breathe and his fingers were digging tightly into his body, I was still unable to grab onto a lifesaving straw to bring me to the surface.
I, seem to find a real place to settle down, to calm down, to settle down... Table, support around the table, I... I felt hollow in my chest and back, exposed to the air.
The lungs, like a crumpled piece of scrap paper, struggled to relax and contract.
A big hand, with someone on the shoulder, but it wasn't that kind of feeling, it wasn't.
Not the way it felt to hold me, but this wasn't what I wanted.
I can't do that.
The chest cavity was completely empty, a repressed emptiness.
He leaned on the table and lowered his head.
”Pa!” With a barely audible sound, two crystals appeared on the back of his hand.
I blinked and looked at the back of my hand. What's this?
Water?
A leak in the roof? Or was it raining again?
Why was the rain so rough?
”Sit down, sit down …”
A woman's voice, from far away, pulled me, sat down.
