Chapter 53 Chapter 53 This race to chase Xing Kui...
Xing Kui was stunned for a moment. He agreed? Did Xu Ye agree? But why did he agree? She didn't do anything!
They agreed to go to the movies, but in the end, she and Li Chengchuan were sitting in the same row in the theater. Is that okay? It turned out to be a good idea to invite Xu Ye to the movies! He really felt the atmosphere of love!
Look, most of the school bullies are crying like Lin Daiyu!
Xing Kui's expression was like that of an aging light bulb. It didn't respond after being powered on. It paused for a few seconds before slowly bursting into light. Noticing Xu Ye staring at her, she quickly lowered her head and searched for tissues.
It's not good for her to smile when others are crying. She should think of something sad and stop smiling!
"Don't cry, don't cry. Although the hero and heroine didn't end up together, I believe that if there is a sequel, they will hold hands happily."
Then can I hold your hand?
Xu Ye looked at Xing Kui's fingers as she took out the tissue paper. Her hands were covered with scars. He knew that Xing Kui had been in a car accident and that it would be very painful.
But to be honest, he had never been in a car accident and had no personal experience, so even if he put himself in someone else's shoes, he couldn't understand how painful it was.
How much pain does it have to cause to lose one's memory?
Since childhood, Xu Ye has also watched some film and television dramas. In these films and television works, the pain caused by car accidents is rarely described in detail. No matter whether it is the heroine, the hero, or even the supporting role, they can be alive and kicking within a few days after being hit by a car.
Or, the scene changes with subtitles like "three months later" or "six months later".
However, Xing Kui was a living person in front of him. Her life was not full of leaps and bounds. She often smiled, but in reality, she was suffering every day, from external injuries, internal injuries, and mental trauma...
If possible, Xu Ye wanted to hold Xing Kui's hand and promise her that he would never, ever let her feel any pain in the future.
The wounds caused by the collision were mostly sunken. There were small pits on the back of Xing Kui's hand. She took out a tissue, handed it to Xu Ye, and said kindly: "Don't cry, oh, since you agreed to have a fake relationship with me, I have something to say..."
She talked about the pressure she was under to get married, which Xu Ye didn't understand, but he stared at Xing Kui without blinking and listened carefully.
Lost memories may not be recovered. Brother Li and Brother Jiang did not tell Xing Kui that she had lost her memory. Perhaps they did not want to cause her secondary harm.
Xu Ye also didn't want to hurt Xing Kui. He hoped that Xing Kui would live a life free from pain. Who could do that? No matter how much he trusted his brother, the one he trusted most was himself. So, Xu Ye decided to step over the brotherhood that had stood in his way for a long time and compete with his brother.
The two brothers standing in front of him, one of them is Brother Li, and the other is a fiancé or fiancée. If they are forgotten, they should be eliminated. It’s like a competition. If the referee forgets the contestant, no matter how fast the contestant runs, he will not be able to take first place.
A Brother Zhou, Xu Ye had already comprehensively analyzed the ten crimes of a scumbag last night. He is a good brother but not a good boyfriend. He will cherish the girlfriend that he does not cherish.
"By the way! Lawyer Zhou and I broke up a while ago."
“…”Oh, it turns out Brother Zhou is not a scumbag.
It didn't affect him. Xu Ye had been suppressing his feelings for Xing Kui. When he finally took the first step, the race to chase Xing Kui began with an unstoppable speed. There was no reason for him to retreat or give up the race.
"The reason why Lawyer Zhou and I broke up was because of the pressure to get married..."
Xing Kui spoke briefly, and as she spoke more and more, Xu Ye's brows gradually pressed down his eyes.
He is not a very smart person, but he has amazing intuition. He thought: Could it be that the engagement between Li Ge and Xing Kui also originated from the need to resolve the pressure to get married?
Xu Ye is still young and no one has ever urged him to get married. Even when he gets older, probably no one will urge him to get married.
He couldn't understand the torture of being urged to get married, but he was willing to put himself in someone else's shoes. Even though he was stupid and couldn't figure it out, when he listened to Xing Kui's calm words, his heart seemed to be swept by the wind and clouds.
Seeing the bitterness that occasionally leaked out of Xing Kui's smile, Xu Ye also felt the bitter melon juice on his lips. He suddenly grabbed Xing Kui's hand and raised it to his chest: "I will try my best to help you solve the problem of urging you to get married!"
The young male college student, who was just beginning to fall in love, stared at Xing Kui, his pupils like chocolate, and beads of sweat on his face, caused by wearing too much, were crystal clear and shiny.
Xing Kui was stunned for a moment, then she raised her hand and pressed Xu Ye's hand: "I will also try my best to help you relieve your exercise anxiety!"
Four hands were folded together, Xu Ye's pupils dilated. Xing Kui misunderstood. He came to the cinema today in the first place, not to watch a movie, but to say that he was not anxious at all.
I have been training many times recently because I am trying to control my feelings for Xing Kui. I have to control my sugar intake and not drink milk tea, and I cannot take off my mask in Li Chengchuan's shopping mall.
Of course, Xu Ye wasn't completely free of anxiety, but he had long ago found a way to deal with it: "100 meters in 9.83 seconds is my record. The gold medal in the last Olympics was 100 meters in 9.81 seconds."
9.83-9.81=0.02. Xing Kui didn't understand the sports stuff. Is a difference of 0.02 that big? "Are you running non-stop because of your anxiety about your grades?"
She tried to understand, she had never run, but she had passed the exam.
One point in the college entrance examination can make a thousand people's difference, so all candidates try their best to earn points. Even if they don't know the answer to the question, they have to write down the "solution" and list the "formula". The 0.02 seconds that Xu Ye is away from the Olympic gold medal may also require a desperate effort, or even a desperate effort cannot reduce it.
"I'm a layman in sports, so I can't help you improve your grades, but I promise I can make you sweet!" Xing Kui's eyes sparkled.
Her gaze was focused and full of energy, giving people a feeling of affirmation. Xu Ye remained silent. His anxiety wasn't about whether he would get first place, but about the disappointed looks of the spectators at the finish line if he didn't.
When he was fourteen, he was just a hair's breadth away from first place and felt the look in their eyes, as if he was a loser if he didn't win the gold medal. So he didn't dare to lose again after that.
Later, the national team extended an olive branch to him, but his performance was not enough to win him an Olympic gold medal, so he fell into anxiety.
At the age of nineteen, on the steps of a building in Huide Hospital, Xu Ye saw a look that pointed to another end.
Xing Kui, who was in danger at the time, silently asked him for help, hoping that he would run to her. Regardless of his ranking or how fast he ran, as long as he ran to her, she would give him a sweet and bright smile.
What is important in a competition is the process, not the result. Everyone can say such empty words. No amount of consolation and encouragement can defeat the audience's disappointment and sighs after not winning first place. Xing Kui gave Xu Ye a different look.
Also a way to deal with anxiety: think of every race as a run toward her.
However, considering Li Chengchuan and Zhou Jing, Xu Ye always suppressed himself and dared not implement his idea. But from today on, he officially decided to regard Xing Kui as his final destination.
Xing Kui, who was unaware of the situation, continued to comfort him: "Don't worry, I'm very responsible. Although I've only had one relationship, I've received countless love letters since I was a child! I believe I have a talent for bringing sweetness to others..."
Xu Ye lowered his head, his slender lips curled downwards behind his mask, and he smiled with restraint, muttering, "Well, can we go on a date tomorrow?"
Xing Kui pressed his hand tightly and quickly replied, "Tomorrow alone is not enough! May Day is almost here, so let's go on a date every day until May Day!"
Xu Ye's eyes widened. Such great luck suddenly fell upon him. He was stunned and was about to nod heavily. His enlarged pupils collided with Xing Kui's eyes.
Her face changed instantly, she suddenly let go and stepped back, holding her hands up in front of her face to defend herself: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, I just felt that one day was not sweet enough, you——"
"Why are you always so afraid of me?" Xu Ye asked for the first time. Before watching the movie, Xing Kui grabbed Li Chengchuan's wrist through his suit, but she didn't tremble with fear.
Jealousy was like a star that stained Xu Ye's heart. He opened his mouth to attack his brother, not even wanting to call him brother, but calling him by his name. "Li Chengchuan is such a mysophobe. If you touched his clothes, he would throw them away when he got home. I wouldn't. You shouldn't be afraid of me."
Huh? Would Li Chengchuan throw away his clothes? Isn't he wearing the same clothes today as when he saved her in the basketball court that day? Isn't it the same clothes?
In an instant, Xing Kui thought of a TV drama where a domineering CEO woke up in the morning, opened his wardrobe, and saw a row of identical suits.
I understand! That must be the case! "I'm not afraid of you personally." Xing Kui explained to Xu Ye, "I don't like all athletic muscular men. You have the capital to kick me away. I'm just subconsciously avoiding risks. I don't mean you any harm."
Xu Ye was slightly startled. He lifted up his down jacket, glanced at the chest muscles behind the jacket, put it down, paused for a few seconds, and said slowly: "I understand. See you tomorrow?"
Xing Kui smiled: "Okay."
In the underground parking lot of the shopping mall, Li Chengchuan walked quickly with his long legs towards his all-black Bentley. In front of the car door, a shopping mall staff member was waiting, holding a tray of medical 75-degree disinfectant alcohol with gloved hands.
Li Chengchuan picked up the alcohol and sprayed it on his body. "Hiss", "hiss", "hiss", after the whole bottle was finished, he seemed to come back to life, and a hint of relaxation appeared on his cold face.
Li Chengchuan really couldn't stand the environment of hundreds of people sitting together in the screening room. Even though he wiped the seat with a tissue, he still felt very uncomfortable throughout the whole movie. He only relied on Xing Kui to be by his side to hold on.
As soon as the movie ended, he hurried over to disinfect. Li Chengchuan took a deep breath and sniffed the air full of alcohol several times. Okay, he could go back.
Li Chengchuan's phone vibrated. He paused, having just turned around, and clicked the button impatiently: "You'd better have something urgent to do."
Jiang Yuming laughed cynically, "What's the matter? Why are you so angry? Who offended our group's leader?"
Li Chengchuan walked into the mall: "Hurry up and tell me."
"I just want to ask you, did Xing Kui invite you to the movies?"
Li Chengchuan stopped and asked: "Did she tell you?"
Inside the mall, on the fourth floor, Jiang Yuming's slender arms rested on the railing, one hand holding a milk tea, the other holding a phone to his ear, his eyes curved. "Yeah, she asked for my opinion. She wants to treat me to a movie as a way of repaying her debt. Eh? What debt?"
In the parking lot, Li Chengchuan raised the corners of his thin lips slightly: "You don't need to know."
"Tsk." Jiang Yuming smiled brightly, but his eyes were gloomy and cold. "Yes, yes, yes, I don't want to know yet. I'm not Zhou Jing who would covet my brother's fiancée. So, Lao Li, did you go to the movies?"
"Yeah." Li Chengchuan admitted.
"Aha, then let me congratulate you, you are making great progress in pursuing Xing Kui!" Jiang Yuming shook the milk tea in his hand, and the taro balls in the cup were shaken up and down, just like he was floating in the clouds last night.
"I'm calling out of kindness. I want to remind you that it's best not to spray alcohol in front of Xing Kui. She might misunderstand that you dislike her."
Li Chengchuan was quiet, looking down at his slightly damp suit: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Jiang Yuming laughed out loud, looking like he was just calling to watch the fun: "It seems that it has already sprayed, and it sprayed a lot. You're on your own."
Before the last word faded, Li Chengchuan hung up the phone. He wished him good luck. It was not too late for him to go see Xing Kui smelling of alcohol.
Li Chengchuan glanced at the mall and walked towards his car.
On the fourth floor of the mall, after Jiang Yuming finished his call, he called Zhou Jing again and took a sip of the milk tea in his hand: "It's done. He won't turn back and bump into Xu Ye."
Zhou Jing: “Yeah.”
The brief conversation ended and both of them fell silent. A question lingered in the minds of Jiang Yuming and Zhou Jing at the same time: would introducing Xu Ye into Xing Kui's field of vision bring about bad consequences?
The answer is unknown, but once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. In short, anyone around Xing Kui can be considered, but it definitely cannot be Li Chengchuan, who almost got married to her.
Jiang Yuming stared at the entrance of the cinema on the third floor and saw Xu Ye and Xing Kui walk out side by side. "Okay, Xu Ye nodded."
The cell phone camera was filming Xing Kui. In the small frame, Zhou Jing ignored Xu Ye beside her and looked at her with a look of longing and yearning.
Jiang Yuming took a glance and said, "I won't show it to you." He ruthlessly closed the call.
He continued to drink milk tea, which was also Jin Nuoyan’s flagship product, “Yunhai Shengmeng”, the same one that Xing Kui was drinking. He was tasting the flavor that Xing Kui was tasting.
There was a rare little red dot on the WeChat discovery page. Jiang Yuming clicked on it and found that an unexpected person had posted a circle of friends.
Li Chengchuan: [The movie is good (two movie ticket pictures.jpg)]
Is it the movie itself that is good, or the person he is watching the movie with, or is it the act of watching the movie with her that is good?
Jiang Yuming licked the tip of the straw with the tip of his tongue, his eyes were cold, and he slid his thumb back to the right, refusing to like his good brother.
Abroad, Zhou Jing also saw this post on WeChat Moments. He immediately turned off his phone, got out of bed and washed up. He was busy with work and had no time to like his good brother's post.
On the subway back to school, Xu Ye also saw Li Chengchuan's circle of friends. One of the movie tickets should have belonged to him, but Brother Li suddenly appeared and stole it. He didn't want to like the thief.
