Chapter 59 Pink Hairpin
Xu Sui came out of the elevator, thought for a moment, and said hello to Song Shiyang: "Then I'll be leaving first."
"See you at the wedding banquet on the 15th." Song Shiyang followed from behind. The wind was strong in the morning, and the green leaves around the community were blown everywhere by the summer wind. Xu Sui was dragging a suitcase. He had just washed his hair yesterday, and some of the loose hair on his forehead was blown messy in an instant.
Xu Sui frowned. She was in a hurry to go out this morning and forgot to use a clip to clip her bangs.
Every time after washing his hair, Xu Sui would use a clip to clip the fine hairs on his head. If it was a weekday, he would use a black straight clip, and if he was not working, he would use some brightly colored clips.
She was focused on her hair because the fine hair was making her forehead itchy, so she didn't pay much attention to what Song Shiyang said and completely forgot about his existence.
Just as he was about to free his hands to take the clip from the small backpack on his back, he heard Song Shiyang ask in his ear: "What do you want to take? I'll help you."
Xu Sui's hand, which was about to release the grip, froze, and he answered faster than his brain could think: "The clip is in the outermost bag."
She was stunned when she spoke, and then she felt someone zipping up her backpack from behind. The movement was very light, but there was still a slight vibration.
Then Xu Sui heard him ask, "What color? There are many styles, too. Which one do you want?"
There was some doubt in his tone, but he asked seriously.
He was standing behind her. Although Xu Sui couldn't see him, she could imagine him asking her with his head down.
The sound of his light breathing was beside his ear, itchy and hot, coming in waves. Xu Sui resisted the urge to shrink his neck and said with a trembling voice, "Whatever, just take one. I need to catch a taxi."
As soon as these words came out, Song Shiyang's eyes darkened and he looked a little unhappy, but this emotion only lasted for a few seconds before he retracted it, and for a moment he felt ridiculous again.
Why was he... This emotion was too inexplicable. He frowned, picked out a clip that he thought was pretty good and handed it to Xu Sui.
Xu Sui turned his head to look, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw his fingertips, which had little crescents and a healthy pink hue.
She held a pink clip in her hand.
There is a light pink bow on top.
Xu Sui's expression suddenly became a little stiff.
How...how did he choose a clip that she had thrown in the corner.
If she remembered correctly, she bought this when she first entered college. At that time, she preferred these brightly colored things, but now she always felt that they were a bit tacky.
It has a deathly Barbie pink feel.
But she was reluctant to throw it away, so she just stuffed it into a bag. Today, she didn't know how Song Shiyang found it.
Xu Sui felt that she could hardly laugh.
But this person kept asking, with a rather innocent tone: "Don't you like it? Then change it."
After saying this, Song Shiyang was about to withdraw his hand.
"Oh, don't."
Xu Sui suddenly reacted and grabbed Song Shiyang's hand. They were both stunned, but Xu Sui's cell phone rang at the right time. Xu Sui knew without thinking that it was the taxi driver's call, so she quickly snatched the hairpin from Song Shiyang's hand and said, "I like it very much. I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
She put her phone on speakerphone and walked out while talking to the driver. In the sunny morning, Song Shiyang stood straight. The wind blew up the fallen leaves, bringing with it some dust. Song Shiyang narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the girl's slender and soft back disappear before his eyes.
After a while, he lowered his head, rubbed his thumb and index finger together, and chuckled.

Xu Sui landed in Chongqing at two o'clock in the afternoon. This time Jiang Changjia came to pick her up. Xu Zhiyao was still at work at this time. He was under a lot of pressure in the third year of junior high school. Even Xie Zhuoyuan had to work hard for a long time to get a leave for his wedding.
Jiang Changjia was still wearing a suspender. When Xu Sui stretched out both hands to hug her, she put a finger on her shoulder to stop her from moving forward.
Xu Sui looked up at Jiang Changjia in confusion. Jiang Changjia poked Xu Sui's forehead with a look of frustration, and said helplessly, "Xu Sui, I'm not saying anything mean to you, but look at you. You have such a pretty face, and look at your figure."
As she said that, she was about to attack, but Xu Sui dodged with extremely quick reaction.
"Wearing short-sleeved shirts and long pants every day is so tacky! The shape of these pants is terrible! Others are made by their clothes, but you are made by your clothes!"
"And this clip, Xu Sui, even a middle school student wouldn't choose this kind of clip!"
Jiang Changjia tugged at Xu Sui's short-sleeve with a look of disgust, and was about to reach out to take her clip.
Xu Sui choked, turned his head to avoid Jiang Changjia's clutches, and tried to excuse himself: "Isn't this just a plane? I can only carry luggage and nothing else, and I won't see anyone."
That's true, Xu Sui's clothing style is not bad, but today he was really out of his mind, and since he was going to meet his grandparents, he dressed quite "plain" (old-fashioned).
"Really?" Jiang Changjia recalled how Xu Sui was dressed the last time they met. It seemed okay, but he still said, "I'll take you shopping tomorrow. My family just invested in a shopping mall in the new city."
"Are you planning to wear the same thing at Xie Zhuoyuan's wedding?" Jiang Changjia glanced at Xu Sui suspiciously, thinking that this seemed like something she could do.
"How is that possible?!" Xu Sui was about to explode, then shook his head: "No, I have something to do tomorrow and can't go."
"What's the matter? More important than me?"
Xu Sui rubbed his face and murmured, "I'm going on a blind date tomorrow."
"What?" The airport was a bit noisy, and Jiang Changjia couldn't hear clearly, so he turned his ear and asked.
Xu Sui swallowed his saliva and whispered in her ear: "I said, I want to go on a blind date!"
After these words were spoken, Jiang Changjia stood still like a stone.
Xu Sui poked her, a little confused: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Jiang Changjia's eyes were dim: "Whose idea was it?"
"My grandmother's." Xu Sui replied.
"Ah? That's okay. We should buy clothes instead. Let's go this afternoon." Jiang Changjia raised the brim of his black baseball cap, took the suitcase from Xu Sui's hand and walked out.
Xu Sui followed behind her like a little sister under the protection of an older sister.
So the two of them went straight to the new shopping mall in the center of Chongqing after leaving the airport. Driving on the winding road, Xu Sui felt that the road was a little familiar.
He tilted his head and thought for a while, until the appearance of the shopping mall gradually appeared in front of Xu Sui, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
This is not...
Was it the mall we went to when we played in the haunted house?
Memories, still shrouded in dust, surfaced bit by bit in his mind. Jiang Changjia had already driven into the underground garage. Seeing Xu Sui looking over, he turned the steering wheel and said, "Sound familiar, right? It's the mall where we played in the haunted house with Song Shiyang and Jiang Song. The previous owner couldn't keep it going, so the new major shareholder renovated it."
"But you should be able to see some of the old times."
How could she not see it? Xu Sui lowered her eyes. This was the first time she and Song Shiyang had met outside the campus.
Although he still didn't say much, she still remembered the way he walked towards her little by little with his hair messy from the wind.
Thinking of the scene this morning, she suddenly came to her senses and looked down at her clothes.
Actually...it's okay.
It’s not as rustic as Jiang Changjia said.
That afternoon, the two of them had lunch at a western restaurant in the mall before going clothes shopping. Xu Sui had fair skin, was 165cm tall, had some flesh, and definitely didn't have any that shouldn't be there. As long as the clothes had a slightly better cut, she could pull them off.
In addition, Jiang Changjia had a very sharp eye, so the two returned home with a full load.
When Jiang Changjia sent Xu Sui home, he suddenly frowned and said, "Hey, you and Song Shiyang's grandparents live in the same neighborhood?"
Jiang Changjia had never been to Xu Sui's place in high school. They usually met on the street or at Jiang Changjia's house. The last time Xu Sui came back drunk, it was already dark, and she was in a hurry to go home, so she didn't think too much about it.
I just feel that the road is a little familiar.
It's daytime today, the road conditions are clear and my mind is clear, so I discovered this problem as soon as I stopped the car.
Xu Sui's hand, carrying the things, hesitated for a moment, then he lifted up a few bags and said, trying to act nonchalantly, "Ah? Is that so? I didn't know that."
"Didn't you meet him here in high school?" Jiang Changjia followed Xu Sui and walked out of the driver's seat.
Xu Sui said softly: "Probably... not."
That period of time, which was both painful and happy for Xu Sui, had been thrown into a closed corner of her memory, but for some reason, it was opened one after another in the past few days like Pandora's box.
It seemed as if everything was telling her to face the past with an open mind. There was nothing that she couldn't get over. It was just that she didn't get the person she liked.
Everything can start over again as long as she lets go.
She thought she had reconciled with herself as early as the summer of 2016, but at the age of 25, she suddenly realized that she had not.
She still couldn't let it go.
**
Jiang Changjia didn't follow him into the house. He put the suitcase at the door and walked down the stairs, because the two old people would definitely take Jiang Changjia here for dinner.
Jiang Changjia had something to do in the evening, so he said goodbye to Xu Sui downstairs. Before leaving, he said to Xu Sui: "Be careful when you go on a blind date tomorrow. Don't get fooled. It's okay to report to me in real time."
This made Xu Sui laugh and cry.
Following Jiang Changjia downstairs: "Okay, okay, I will report to you in real time, okay?" Xu Sui said with a smile, his eyebrows bent.
After sending the people away, Xu Sui went up the stairs. Grandma had heard the noise outside a long time ago. She opened the door and asked Xu Sui, who was looking down, "What's wrong, Renren? Why are you still going downstairs?"
Xu Sui touched her nose and suddenly felt a little reluctant to go upstairs. Sure enough, as soon as she entered the house, her grandmother pulled her arm and said, "We agreed to meet the young man from your sister's unit tomorrow. I heard from your sister that this young man is down-to-earth and a man who can make a living."
Hearing the word "sister", Xu Sui turned around abruptly, frowned, and asked, "Who is the blind date that Shu Siyun introduced to me?"
Although Xu Sui didn't take this blind date seriously and planned to just take a look and then say "not suitable" to deal with the old lady, he never expected that it was someone from Shu Siyun's unit.
She really didn't think Shu Siyun would introduce any "good person" to her.
After all, the biggest disaster she encountered in high school was directly caused by her.
The reason was simple, and Xu Sui guessed it after using his brain.
