quarrel
Because Xu Hongqi was delayed for a while today, he did not go home to cook, but rode his bike directly to Xu Nian's school. When he arrived, the school was quiet. The lower grade students who were supposed to leave school had left early, while the upper grade students were still studying in the classroom before their time.
When Xu Hongqi arrived, his heart was pounding and his forehead was covered with sweat from pedaling. After resting for a while at school, he calmed down. He looked at his watch and saw that Xu Nian would not be home from school for at least another hour. He thought of going to the state-owned restaurant to order food first, and then he could eat it after picking up Xu Nian.
After he ordered the food, he rode his bike back to school. As soon as the bike stopped, the school bell rang. He simply didn't have the bike and pushed it to the place where he usually waited for Xu Nian.
Soon the students walked out of the school gate in the moonlight. Ling Shuang looked around the outside of the school and immediately saw Xu Nian's brother. She ran over to take a closer look. Usually, everything was blurry at night after school. Today, when she got closer, she felt that Nian Nian's brother was very tall, about 1.8 meters tall, and he stood very straight. She took a breath and looked up. He was really handsome, with wheat-colored skin and cold eyebrows. She couldn't help but stop when he looked at her.
Xu Hongqi glanced behind her and said, "Are you Nian Nian's classmate?"
I have seen Xu Nian walking out arm in arm with a girl several times, so although he looked doubtful, his tone was affirmative.
Ling Shuang hummed a little embarrassedly, "Xu Nian asked for leave and left early today. She asked me to tell you that when you go home, you can go to the state-owned restaurant and order a few dishes."
Xu Hongqi suppressed the question that was about to come out of his mouth and just asked her, "Is she feeling unwell today?"
Ling Shuang thought about Xu Nian's condition today and shook her head. "No, she said what I just said when she left."
Xu Hongqi knew that Xu Nian was not going home because she was unwell, so he felt relieved. After thanking her classmates, he rode away on his bike.
He rode his bike to the state-owned restaurant and soon rode away again with the food. The first thing he did when he got home was to call someone to confirm whether Xu Nian had returned.
After Xu Nian finished everything, she worked hard on the test paper in the room. Her reason for asking for leave was not very sufficient, so she left early with the task.
Now that the weather is neither too cold nor too hot, the two of them move to Xu Nian's room again to study.
When she heard Xu Hongqi's voice, she thought it was an auditory hallucination. It was normal for him to come back at this time on normal days. It was a bit impossible that he went to the state-owned restaurant to buy vegetables and was able to get home at about the same time today.
"Xu Nian?" Xu Hongqi called out while looking for someone in each room.
Xu Nian heard it clearly this time, responded, stood up and went out.
As soon as she came out, she saw Xu Hongqi walking towards her with sweat on his face. "Why did you ask for leave today? Are you feeling unwell or is there something wrong?"
Xu Nian shook her head, looked at his empty hands, frowned and said, "Didn't my classmate tell you anything?" If that was true, then that little cream cake wouldn't be enough for the two of them.
Xu Hongqi watched her shake her head, his anger boiling up inside him. He tried to calm himself, but his tone was noticeably stiff. "Xu Nian, you're not feeling unwell, and nothing's wrong. Why are you asking for leave? Don't you know you have more than a month left before the college entrance exam?"
Xu Nian was thinking that since he didn't go to buy food, he could only cook some with what he had at home. Although it would probably take quite a while to finish eating, it only happened once a year, so it would be a bit troublesome.
A lecture brought her back to her senses. After hearing that, she instantly became angry and said something harsh and hurtful, "Why do you care about me? You are my father, right?"
Xu Hongqi had been traveling and worried all the way, and coupled with the recent unpleasantness between them, his words were harsh and sharp, "If you keep this attitude, you'll not only have a third chance at the college entrance exam, but a fourth and fifth too."
"Xu Hongqi, are you sick? How have I offended you?" Xu Nian was so angry that she was stunned. He knew very well how much she cared about her. The college entrance examination was approaching and he actually offended her. She couldn't help but punch him, and her eyes turned red with anger.
After being punched, Xu Hongqi lost his temper. Seeing that Xu Nian seemed to be about to cry, he instantly became panicked. He was afraid that he would say something unpleasant again, so he choked up and said, "Let's all calm down."
Xu Nian watched him walk towards the place where the bicycles were parked at the gate. She wiped her eyes and when she looked again, she saw that the man had a few more lunch boxes in his hands. He seemed to be going to the main room with the things he had prepared. Thinking of the things she had prepared, she immediately rushed over and said, "You go to your own room. I want to stay in this room."
"I'll go put the food in the main room." This time Xu Hongqi's voice softened.
After he said such sad words to her, how could Xu Nian let him see the cow cake she prepared?
He said firmly, "Put it in the kitchen."
Xu Hongqi didn't move, and looked at her for a long time. "Aren't you going to eat? Aren't you hungry?"
She didn't want to talk to him, but seeing him standing still, with a cold face and not looking at anyone, she said, "I'm angry."
Xu Hongqi sighed, "It's my bad temper, don't be angry." He put the lunch box on the threshold of the main room.
"Take it in and eat it. I'm going back to the house."
After Xu Nian saw him leave, he glanced at the lunch box on the doorstep, bent down to pick it up, and walked into the main room.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw the surprise I had carefully prepared. I felt very uncomfortable, lost and a little regretful.
She sat down and put her lunch box casually on the stool. On the stool, she saw the matchbox she had left for her. She was stunned for a while without thinking about anything.
Finally she stood up and turned off the light, then groped her way back to sit. She picked up the matchstick, lit it, and lit the twenty candles in a circle.
It's okay. She won't let him pass the exam. She will suffer the least. That big idiot is really stupid.
The person who was cursing had no idea how powerful he was. The person who was being cursed was lying on the bed. He had felt very tired since he came in. The room was shrouded in darkness and his eyes were sore. He raised his hand and covered his eyes with the back of his hand. Except for his chest which was slightly rising and falling, his whole body had lost its vitality.
After a while, his temples kept twitching and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he moved his hand from his eyes to his temples. After pressing for a while, he felt a little better. His eyes slowly opened, and he looked towards the window unconsciously. His body tensed and he immediately ran out of the house.
Xu Nian heard a bang and the door was pushed open by external force. She was startled and looked up to meet the eyes of the person who came in.
Xu Hongqi breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he opened the door. He was scared to death just now. He saw several clusters of flames flashing in the main room from the window and thought there was a fire. While looking at Xu Nian, his heartbeat slowly returned to its original frequency.
He also noticed the scene inside. There was only a beam of light in the room, which was where Xu Nian was. Her face was dimly illuminated by the red candlelight, and she looked like a pure angel in Western mythology. Her eyes reflected clear questions and a little bit of awkwardness. The whole person flashed into his heart like a beam of light. He thought he was finished and stopped struggling.
Xu Hongqi stood at the door. The wind blew in, making the candle flame sway gracefully.
Xu Nian said, "Hurry out and close the door."
Xu Hongqi only did half of what he was told. He closed the door and locked himself in.
Without waiting for Xu Nian to chase him away, he came in and said, "It's my birthday, how can I celebrate it if I don't come in?"
Xu Nian was seen through by him, but she still insisted, "Who said I gave it to you? I like it this way, right? Hurry up and get out." She glanced at the lunch box on the stool and said, "Remember to take your food with you."
Xu Hongqi knew that he had offended someone badly. He didn't say anything, but picked up a stool and sat next to Xu Nian.
Xu Nian snorted coldly and moved to the other side. Xu Hongqi saw her move, so he moved too. The two of them childishly walked around the table.
Xu Nian suddenly stood up and was about to leave. Xu Hongqi immediately grabbed her hand, and Xu Nian struggled hard.
"open."
"No."
"Let go quickly."
"No."
"Are you going to let go or not?"
"I dare not let go."
He spoke softly, but in his actions he grabbed the other person's hand.
Xu Nian was not as strong as him, and he couldn't break free, so he simply turned his head away and didn't look at him.
Xu Hongqi bent down and lowered his head, he looked into her eyes, and finally let go.
Xu Nian had just breathed a sigh of relief when she was suddenly hugged. She forgot to push the person away for a moment, but she heard a sigh of relief in her ears.
"Niannian, I'm sorry, can you please not be angry with me?"
Xu Nian curled his lips, "Who gave you the courage to hug me? Let go."
The air was quiet for a moment, "Maybe it's Fish Leong!"
Xu Nian wondered if he was really thinking, did he know who Fish Leong was? How could someone be so confident?
"Are you thinking, I know who Fish Leong is, so just say Fish Leong."
Xu Nian's complaints were stuck in his heart and he made a "huh" sound.
The darkness was a protective color for Xu Hongqi, and he hugged the person tightly.
"Niannian, you're the only one who remembers my birthday. I haven't celebrated it since I was seven. It's been so long that even I've forgotten about birthdays. I didn't expect you to not only remember it but also prepare something for it. You don't know how happy I was when I realized it just now."
"But I'm sorry. I made you sad. Can you please forgive me just once?"
Xu Nian felt a little cheesy when she heard this. She wondered if the person in front of her was possessed. Why was he so clingy? How could his heart, which was right next to her ear, be beating so fast? She hoped nothing would happen to him.
I thought so, but as soon as she opened her mouth, it turned into, “Stop pretending to be pitiful.”
Xu Hongqi was silent for a moment before he said, "You only pity me if you like me."
Xu Nian: “…”
"shameless!"
Xu Hongqi felt hot all over. It was the first time he said such words. His whole body was as hot as if he had a high fever, but somehow the next sentence came out of his mouth smoothly.
"You don't even pay attention to me, what's the point of having a face?"
Xu Nian was really shocked, "Xu Hongqi, are you really Xu Hongqi?" As he said that, he was about to break free to see.
Xu Hongqi was too embarrassed to let her see it, so he hugged her even harder. When Xu Nian was about to suffocate, he begged in a low voice: "Niannian, please celebrate my birthday."
Xu Nian took advantage of the moment when he lost his strength to push him away, took a breath and sat on the stool. Seeing Xu Hongqi still standing there stupidly, he said unnaturally: "Come over here!"
