Seeing my serious expression, Xia Xue had no choice but to come over. I asked Lao Zhang for an umbrella, and Lao Zhang handed it to me with a sigh. I opened the shutter door, put my arm around Xia Xue's shoulders, held the umbrella above our heads, and walked down the stairs carefully.
Although it was sleeting, the weather was not very cold, and the sound of firecrackers could be faintly heard. There was no one on the street, and occasionally a car would speed by. Most of the time, it was just the two of us, walking slowly under an umbrella.
Along the way, I told Xia Xue in a gentle tone that I might have to visit her less often in the next period of time.
"The seven dragons and six phoenixes are very tough opponents." I said seriously, "If you want to study safely in Beiqi, you must get rid of them. So after the new semester starts, I will be very busy and can't come to you casually."
Xia Xue said helplessly: "Why do you always get into trouble? I've lived so long and studied for so many years, but I've never seen a student like you. It's so difficult for you to just go to school peacefully!"
"Alas, same person, different fate. I'm used to it."
On the long street, we both deliberately walked very slowly. Perhaps we both knew in our hearts that after this time, we would not walk together so intimately for a long time... No matter how long the journey is, we will eventually reach the destination. Besides, Xia Xue's home was not far away. When we were about to reach the bottom of her building, Xia Xue complained, "I have been out for so long, and my mother has not called me. It seems that she really doesn't care about me..."
Just as he finished speaking, a beam of flashlight shone over, and he could vaguely see a person standing downstairs.
"Xia Xue, is that you?" It was indeed the voice of Xia Xue's mother.
Xia Xue was so excited when she heard her mother calling her. "Mom, Mom..." Xia Xue ran over and threw herself into the arms of the woman downstairs. No matter how she complained, she was really closest to her mother - I seemed to have said something nonsense. But seeing this warm scene, I was also very moved.
"Child, you really aren't coming back?" Xia Xue's mother's words were reproachful and full of concern.
"Humph, I really wasn't going to come back, but Wang Hao insisted on sending me back!" Xia Xue was acting coquettishly.
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and Xia Xue's mother suddenly walked towards me. Xia Xue wanted to come over, but Xia Xue's mother waved her hand at her, so she had to stand there, looking at us worriedly. Xia Xue's mother walked up to me and said, "Thank you."
"It's my duty." I felt a little uneasy.
"Can you understand me?" Xia Xue's mother asked.
My heart ached and I nodded: "Yes."
"Okay." Xia Xue's mother said, "I will watch you work hard. I hope that one day, you can take Xia Xue away from me openly, and get my heartfelt blessings instead of complaints."
I nodded, nodded vigorously.
"Goodbye." Xia Xue's mother turned her head. This intellectual and elegant woman walked away slowly, holding Xia Xue's hand and going upstairs.
I put my umbrella aside and forgot to open it. I looked up at the lights in the corridor, which lit up and dimmed layer by layer. After all the lights went out, I felt that Xia Xue and I were getting farther and farther away...
The text message on my phone rang again. I took it out and saw that it was from Xia Xue: Silly husband, go home soon. It's cold outside. Keep in touch with me. Don't forget the promise to go to college together! ^_^ I will never marry anyone except you in this life!
I texted her back: Goodbye.
My tears almost welled up. I pressed the phone against my chest, just like Xia Xue leaning against my arms.
I know this is a stupid move, but I still keep doing it and walk slowly back home. Because only in this way can I feel less pain in my heart.
Today, I said goodbye to two girls. One is Li Shanman and the other is Xia Xue. Li Shanman's goodbye means I hope we will never see each other again. Xia Xue's goodbye means I hope we will meet again.
I held my cell phone against my chest, held an umbrella above my head, and walked alone on this long, lonely street.
