"How is Taozi?" Xia Xue looked at me eagerly, her tone full of worry and fatigue.
I don't know how long Xia Xue has been squatting here. If it were usual, I would have gone over to hug her without saying a word, but now... I calmed myself down and said, "Taozi is fine, Su Xiaobai will be detained for fifteen days." During the time when I was in a coma at the police station, a lot of people including Hu Jianmin and Dai Zude came, so the news that "Taozi was kidnapped by Su Xiaobai" should have spread throughout the city, but not many people know the details.
"That's good." Xia Xue lowered her head, looking relieved, then raised her head again, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
It just so happens that I also have something to say to her, so it's better to clarify some things in advance. "You guys go back to the dormitory first, I'll talk to Xia Xue for a while." The four kings went upstairs, Ye Zhan sent Su Wan to the girls' dormitory, and only Xia Xue and I were left at the scene.
Xia Xue stopped crying, and the tears on her face looked pitiful. This incident was a big blow to her, especially after she saw me being hit by a few bricks in the cafeteria, she was really scared at that time.
I didn't know how to tell Xia Xue, so I just kept silent. Xia Xue suddenly asked, "Won't you hug me?"
I continued to remain silent, without saying anything or moving anything. I guess this was a good way of expressing myself.
"You're going back to Taozi, right?" Xia Xue lowered her head and twisted her clothes. She couldn't see her expression clearly, but she could hear the trembling in her voice: "Starting tomorrow, you have to take care of Taozi, right?"
"Yeah." I responded softly, and my heart began to ache slightly: "Can you understand me?"
"Sure." Xia Xue raised her head and smiled: "Taozi needs more care. It's okay for me."
"Really?" I looked at Xia Xue with emotion.
"Really?" Xia Xue continued to smile, "There are many boys who are pestering me, and you are not the only one."
I knew she was joking. But she was still in the mood to joke, so she probably wasn't too upset. I breathed a sigh of relief. Things were much easier than I thought. I smiled too: "I believe in your charm."
"Hehe." Xia Xue smiled: "Taozi is fine, and you are fine too, so I feel relieved. Then I will go home."
"Hey, let me take you there."
Xia Xue had already turned around and walked two steps, and I hurriedly followed behind her. Xia Xue turned around and said, "Oh, no need, I know the way."
I followed her stubbornly. It was already the middle of the night when I realized I didn't know the way anymore, but I was worried about her going home alone.
"Oh, you're annoying. I told you not to send me off." Xia Xue stomped her feet and said, "Stop, stand there and don't move."
I stood there in a daze, completely unaware of why Xia Xue was so determined not to let me see her off.
Xia Xue then turned around and started jogging. I watched her figure gradually disappear into the darkness, and I was still a little worried, so I followed her along the road. After running a few dozen meters, I saw Xia Xue squatting under a street lamp.
"Xia Xue, what's wrong with you?" I walked over and squatted down.
Xia Xue raised her head, looking like she had become a tearful person. She suddenly rushed towards me, hugged my neck and cried, "Wang Hao, let's not break up, okay? You go take care of Taozi, go be with Taozi, whatever is fine, let's not break up, okay? Let's be together secretly, without letting Brick find out, without letting anyone find out. Let's not break up, okay?"
What can I say? What else can I say? It turns out that Xia Xue's previous ease was all fake. She suppressed her emotions and ran for dozens of meters before she couldn't help squatting and crying. It was not until she saw me that her emotions really exploded.
I slowly raised my hands and gently touched Xia Xue's hair. What should I say? "Being with Tao Zi and secretly with Xia Xue at the same time" is something I can't say, let alone do. So I can only remain silent.
Xia Xue kept crying and begging me. She had already made the biggest concession. She was willing to endure humiliation, hide in the dark, and even be my lover in private, just to avoid breaking up with me. But I couldn't do that. It would only make me go further and further down the wrong path, making this already tangled problem even more complicated.
"I don't want to be with either of you." I let out a long breath. This was the only decision I could make.
"What?" Xia Xue looked at me in surprise.
"No matter who I'm with, it's always hurting the other person." I said sadly, "What's even more terrible is that until now I still haven't figured out who I really like. I can't let go of you, and I can't let go of Taozi. I can't accept myself like this."
"No, don't." Xia Xue stammered, "Taozi just had something like that happen, she must be very fragile now, please don't... you should just go and accompany her, I, I won't make a fuss anymore, I shouldn't have made a fuss..."
"Don't worry." I patted Xia Xue's head: "Taozi is not as fragile as you think. Her inner strength is inversely proportional to her outer weakness. Besides, I don't have to be with her even if I accompany her."
I smiled bitterly: "I even feel that in the end, I won't get either of you, and I will lose both of you at the same time."
"Don't talk nonsense." Xia Xue patted me and said, "I don't know about Taozi, but I..." Xia Xue looked up and looked into my eyes. Her eyes were so beautiful, her pupils were like autumn water, like the brightest two stars in the night sky.
Xia Xue just looked at me and said word by word: "I will always love you and wait for you."
