Chapter 58: Unavoidable
While eating dinner, Zhang Xianmei nudged Chi Changgui beside her with her elbow, motioning him to look at Chi Jinjin.
Chi Changgui looked over and saw Chi Jinjin holding a bowl, biting her chopsticks and staring blankly.
Chi Jinjin's mind was full of Nan Xuqiu's sudden kiss on her during the day, and also, if he hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known that he had secretly kissed her so many times!
If he hadn't said it himself, Chi Jinjin really couldn't imagine that this was something Nan Xuqiu would do.
"What are you thinking about?" Chi Changgui waved his hand in front of Chi Jinjin.
Chi Jinjin came back to his senses, his face flushed, and he quickly replied guiltily, "No, I didn't think anything."
She lowered her head and ate her meal.
After dinner, Chi Changgui went to the next door house to play cards, while Zhang Xianmei and Chi Jinjin's seventh aunt chatted about all kinds of gossip in the village.
Chi Jinjin walked out of the house and stood at the door, looking up at the sky which was gradually getting darker.
But as she looked, she saw the image of Nan Xuqiu kissing her appear in the sky.
Chi Jinjin quickly reached out and slapped them away.
It’s just a kiss, forget it!
Chi Jinjin warned herself not to let certain people disturb her mind again.
She turned around and went back into the house, sitting on the sofa and watching TV.
At this time, Zhang Xianmei received a call and heard Nan Xuqiu's voice.
Chi Jinjin told herself not to listen, but couldn't help but listen.
He said, "I'm sorry, Auntie. I had an emergency at home, so I had to leave without saying goodbye. Please don't be angry."
"I'm not angry, I'm not angry." Zhang Xianmei said with a smile, "It's just a pity. Auntie, I prepared a lot of delicious food for you. Didn't you say you liked the mangoes I made? I packed a lot for you to take away."
"That's really a pity." Nan Xuqiu said regretfully, "How about, let Jinjin bring it to me."
Chi Jinjin was shocked.
He quickly shook his head and winked at Zhang Xianmei.
But Zhang Xianmei didn't even look at it and said directly, "Okay, okay, I forgot your school is next to hers. Then I'll ask her to bring it to you when we go to school."
"Yeah, thank you, Auntie."
"No thanks, no thanks. Come and visit me again if you have the chance." Zhang Xianmei said with a smile.
Chi Jinjin couldn't help but admire Nan Xuqiu's ability to win people's hearts.
After she hung up the phone.
Chi Jinjin hurriedly said, "Mom, why did you agree?"
"Why can't you agree? Aren't you friends?" Zhang Xianmei was puzzled and added, "They bought so many things for us, I have to give something back."
"But..." Chi Jinjin looked at her old mother who knew nothing and could only nod in compromise and said, "Okay."
"Was the person on the phone just now the handsome guy who used to live in your house?" Chi Jinjin's aunt asked.
Zhang Xianmei talked to them about Nan Xuqiu with great interest.
Chi Jinjin had originally thought about not thinking about Nan Xuqiu, but now, his name was ringing in her ears everywhere.
Zhou Zhou always mentioned him, Tang Shi always mentioned him, the children in the orphanage always mentioned him, and now even his family can hear his name being pronounced by others.
She then realized that Nan Xuqiu had once again filled her entire life without her realizing it, leaving her with no escape.
The spring breeze arrived as promised, warming every corner.
Chi Jinjin came to school again.
Looking at the things on the table, I don’t know what to do.
After hesitating for a long time, Chi Jinjin gritted her teeth and sent a message to Nan Xuqiu.
[Senior, my mother wants to give you something. Are you free to come and get it?]
Nan Xuqiu quickly replied: [I'm busy outside right now. How about you take me home? I'll send you the address.]
Very busy, outside.
So, he is not at home?
Chi Jinjin didn't really want to face him, so she quickly replied, "Okay, send me the address."
Nan Xuqiu quickly sent the address and said, "Thank you for your help."
Chi Jinjin replied: [No trouble. 】
She picked up her things, left the school, and took a taxi to his home.
Fearing that he would be late, he went home.
She didn't want to meet him. The thought of facing him made her feel guilty. She didn't know why she felt guilty. She had done nothing wrong. At most, she had said something too harsh that day.
Maybe that's why.
After a while, we finally arrived at his home. The outermost iron gate of his house was open.
Chi Jinjin walked in, came to the front door and rang the doorbell.
The door opened immediately.
But when Chi Jinjin looked up, she saw that the person who opened the door was Nan Xuqiu!
"You're here, come in and sit down." Nan Xuqiu took the things in her hand and pulled her into the house.
Chi Jinjin took a few steps, then came back to her senses, pulled her hand out of his, and said, "Why, it's you? Shouldn't you be outside?"
"This..." Nan Xuqiu hesitated to speak.
Chi Jinjin looked around, but Aunt Zhuang and Uncle Zhuang were nowhere to be found.
She seemed to understand something and asked, "You weren't outside at all, were you?"
Nan Xuqiu placed the things on the coffee table and said frankly, "If I don't do this, will you come to see me?"
I was indeed deceived by him.
Chi Jinjin felt a little angry.
She endured it and said, "I brought you the things. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"What's the matter? Are you with Gao Yi?" Nan Xuqiu asked, leaning back on the sofa.
Chi Jinjin felt that he was questioning herself.
But why should he question himself?
"It has nothing to do with you..." Chi Jinjin said, turned around and walked out.
Nan Xuqiu strode forward and pressed Chi Jinjin against the wall.
"Chi Jinjin, I want to have a good talk with you." Nan Xuqiu said to her.
Chi Jinjin said stubbornly, "If it's a matter of feelings, there's nothing more to say to you. I told you everything that day."
"Let me go, Nan Xuqiu!" Chi Jinjin was really angry this time and scolded him. She wanted to leave, but he held her shoulders forcefully.
Nan Xuqiu chuckled and said, "You're finally willing to call me by my name? Hmm?"
He stared down at her, seeing her anger as she tried to break free but couldn't, like an angry cat whose fur stood up when he got close to her. She thought she was very fierce, but in fact she had no deterrent power at all.
At least that's how it was for him.
He looked at her, his gaze moving from her eyes to her mouth. Her mouth was so soft and sweet, but the words she said were like knives, scraping him one by one, more painful than breaking bones and cutting flesh.
Nan Xuqiu slowly kissed her lips again.
When Chi Jinjin saw this, she was shocked and quickly turned her head away.
Nan Xuqiu was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he closed his eyes again and kissed her neck obsessively. Her fragrance hit him in the face, and the temperature on her neck was higher than that on her lips.
Chi Jinjin trembled all over in an instant, her hair stood on end, and she put her hands on his chest, trying to push him away.
But Nan Xuqiu came up to her, hugged her tightly, lifted her up slightly, and buried his head in her neck, sucking gently.
No matter how Chi Jinjin pushed him, he wouldn't move. Finally, in a fit of anger, she opened her mouth and bit Nan Xuqiu's shoulder.
Only then did Nan Xuqiu let her go.
"Nan Xuqiu, you bastard!"
Chi Jinjin stepped forward and pushed Nan Xuqiu hard again, then slammed the door and ran out.
Nan Xuqiu finally came to his senses a little. He chased out, but saw that Chi Jinjin had already gotten into the car and left.
He could only hold his forehead in regret. He really didn't mean to do this. He just wanted to have a good talk, but he couldn't control his urge to get closer to her, to hug her and kiss her.
He then realized that since when had Chi Jinjin become someone he couldn't control, someone who could easily destroy all his rationality and calmness.
Chi Jinjin returned to the dormitory, took a towel, dipped it in water and wiped her neck vigorously, but the feeling of him kissing her neck skin seemed impossible to wipe away.
At this time, her cell phone rang. It was Nan Xuqiu calling.
Chi Jinjin was already upset, and when she saw this, she got angry and hung up the phone.
He sent messages but was ignored.
But after she calmed down, Chi Jinjin looked at the messages he sent and the five or six missed calls, and wondered if she had gone too far.
But, he was the one who bullied first.
But she couldn't help but feel a little guilty in her heart.
Chi Jinjin found that she seemed to be completely controlled by Nan Xuqiu.
But why? I'm already in college, why should I still be affected by him and be controlled by him?
The more Chi Jinjin thought about it, the more unfair it seemed, and the more she felt she should have the confidence.
So she just gave up.
Since then, Nan Xuqiu would send her messages every morning and evening. He didn't say anything, just asked how she was. Occasionally, he would send Chi Jinjin what he saw and thought, sharing his life.
Even from beginning to end, she never replied to a single message.
He still insisted on posting it.
A month later, during a meal, Zhou Zhou suddenly said to Chi Jinjin, "Let me tell you, I ate a big melon!"
"What's the news? Which celebrity has his reputation ruined again?" Chi Jinjin guessed.
This is what Zhou Zhou always talks about.
But this time Zhou Zhou shook his head and said mysteriously, "It's not a celebrity, it's Gao Yi."
"Gao Yi?" Chi Jinjin was puzzled. "What's going on with him?"
"Don't you think Gao Yi has been absent from school a lot lately, sometimes even skipping classes?"
Chi Jinjin thought about it carefully and it seemed to be the case. He had been elusive recently and didn't eat with them very often.
"What's wrong with him?" Chi Jinjin asked.
Zhou Zhou said, "He has a girlfriend!"
"Is it true?" Chi Jinjin was surprised.
"Of course it's true. Look, isn't this Gao Yi?" Zhou Zhou opened his phone, opened the photo album, and showed it to Chi Jinjin.
Chi Jinjin took a look and found that it was indeed Gao Yi in the photo. He was hugging a girl. The girl was very beautiful and had a good figure.
"I saw this while shopping the other day. I was shocked." Zhou Zhou looked at the photo and said, "Gao Yi, you wouldn't have guessed he's such a hidden talent, but he has such a beautiful girlfriend."
"His girlfriend is really pretty." Chi Jinjin couldn't help but praise, but also thought that now that he has a girlfriend, she can't date him.
She was glad that Zhou Zhou told her, otherwise she would have thought that he was still waiting for her answer, and she would have been embarrassed again.
"It's okay, it's okay."
Chi Jinjin murmured.
Zhou Zhou was puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Chi Jinjin came back to his senses and said with a smile, "I said, luckily my rice is not too spicy."
"Oh." Zhou Zhou said unhappily, "Gao Yi is really disloyal. He got a girlfriend but didn't even tell us. Are we his friends? No, I have to ask him later."
When they arrived at the classroom for the afternoon class, they happened to meet Gao Yi.
Zhou Zhou asked directly and to the point, Gao Yi was frank and admitted that he had a girlfriend.
"Where did you meet such a beautiful girlfriend?" Zhou Zhou asked curiously.
Gao Yi briefly told them the story of how he and his girlfriend met and fell in love. It turned out that his girlfriend was the daughter of a bank employee. Once, she was being followed by someone and happened to see him riding a bike, so she asked him to give her a ride. Then they met and eventually got together. It was the girl who confessed her love first.
Zhou Zhou continued to ask, "What's your girlfriend's name?"
"Yu Wan." Gao Yi replied.
From then on, Chi Jinjin often saw Gao Yi and his girlfriend together, and he became the most envied person among all the boys in the class.
But Chi Jinjin also found that Gao Yi had changed a little.
He started skipping classes more and more often, started smoking and drinking, started napping in class, and his grades got worse and worse.
Originally ranked second in the department, his ranking has now dropped to several hundred places.
I am no longer active in finding a job.
Chi Jinjin reminded him several times in a tactful way, but he didn't seem to care, so she stopped talking. As a friend, she had already fulfilled all her responsibilities, but he didn't want to listen, and she couldn't change that.
During the holidays, she went hiking with Tang Shi. Although she knew that Nan Xuqiu would also come back, she still had no choice but to go.
This was what she had promised Tang Shi last year. She had to accompany her no matter what the reason was, and she couldn't break the promise.
Sure enough, when she got into the car, she saw Nan Xuqiu in the car.
He didn't even drive today.
"Jinjin, what are you standing there for? Get in the car," Tang Shi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and said to her.
Chi Jinjin had no choice but to get in the car.
There are three people in the back row: her, Nan Xuqiu, and Ji Yang.
Chi Jinjin tried to reduce her footprint as much as possible, not touching Nan Xuqiu at all, and kept looking out the window, not daring to look back.
Song Ci and Tang Shi were chatting animatedly in front of the car. Ji Yang lowered his head and sent a message to Song Nuannuan with a smile on his face.
In the entire car, only Nan Xuqiu and Chi Jinjin were silent and had nothing to do.
Chi Jinjin looked out the window, but she couldn't focus on the scenery outside.
As Nan Xuqiu wished, she could naturally treat him as a friend before, but now she really couldn't convince herself to be friends with him.
When she saw him, she thought of those intimate things and couldn't help feeling nervous.
She turned her head until her neck was sore, but she still didn't dare look back for fear of meeting his gaze.
The car finally arrived at the destination and Chi Jinjin quickly got out.
When going up the mountain, she deliberately walked behind, but Nan Xuqiu walked slower than her.
Chi Jinjin didn't know whether he did it on purpose.
She was sure he did it on purpose.
