☆, Chapter 37
In addition to what those people said, if Xi Mo continued to play with him, she would be implicated by him and become the topic of gossip among people in the community.
All in all, their drifting apart is reasonable and natural.
However, while distancing himself from her, he couldn't help but fall in love with her.
I walked forward on purpose, but actually looked back for a long time.
Liking someone is a very special thing. For Xiu Yangui, sadness outweighs joy. He did not become brave because of this feeling, but became more timid and cowardly.
He was just a grain of sand, and Xi Mo was the princess in the candy jar. He knew very well that he was not worthy of Xi Mo.
Chen Nianyu looked at Xiu Yangui as if he was a scumbag. "How could you do this? The princess is such a good girl, but she became distant after growing up. Why? I don't understand."
"This is complicated. It's all my fault, but I've changed now, haven't I?"
Xiu Yangui stuttered as he spoke. Every time he talked about this kind of thing, his mouth became clumsy.
In fact, he always wanted to apologize to Xi Mo. His suffering was not caused by Xi Mo. He even caused trouble to Xi Mo, but he alienated her because of his suffering.
"No, Princess, you can't forgive him. A Yan is too bad. He..."
Chen Nianyu was interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone and got up to answer the call on the balcony.
Only Xi Mo and Xiu Yangui were left in the living room. Xiu Yangui sat upright, no longer slumped on the sofa, and looked nervous.
Xi Mo put down her phone and asked, "On the second day of the new year, when I was in the hospital, what happened?"
Xi Mo thought about it and thought that the change probably happened without her knowledge, and that was when she was in the hospital.
Xiu Yangui was deflated. "It's nothing. You know everything. My mom went abroad, and then something happened. It's not a big deal."
"Then what."
"Then, I was quite confused, so I went to look for you, but you weren't there."
"I'm in the hospital."
"Yes, you were in the hospital. I didn't know at that time, so I just waited for you. Then you were discharged, and that was it."
Yes, that's it. Xi Mo appeared in school again, but he didn't take the initiative to look for Xi Mo because he hoped that Xi Mo would come to him on her own initiative.
Find him, and then he will tell Xi Mo everything naturally.
Xi Mo would definitely stand on his side and not scold him like the people in the community. Xi Mo would even comfort him, but the thing he hoped for did not happen.
A childish and arrogant boy uses the cold war method to get her attention, but becomes disheartened because he does not get her attention for a long time.
Heartbroken and sad.
"How long did you wait then?"
Xiu Yangui didn't dare to look Xi Mo in the eye, dodging it. He was lying, "Not for long, maybe a while."
The second year of the Chinese New Year passed like this, with one not coming and the other not going, and the two of them became estranged because of this reason.
Xi Mo lowered her eyes. She seemed to see the brokenness deep in Xiu Yangui's eyes. "I'm sorry, I ignored you."
Xiu Yangui finally dared to look Xi Mo in the eye. "It's not your fault. You were sick and it's normal for you not to notice me. Besides, there are so many people around you. I..."
"It doesn't matter if you don't have me."
Xiu Yangui smiled self-deprecatingly, and Xi Mo felt even more sad. Her nose felt sore and her eyes began to turn red.
“It does matter.”
Xiu Yangui, feeling uneasy, stood up and sat on the carpet with Xi Mo. "We are fine like this now, aren't we?"
"But I hurt you before."
Xiu Yangui swallowed the bitterness in his throat, raised his hand and patted Xi Mo's shoulder, "You didn't hurt me, I was the one who wanted to find you, it has nothing to do with you."
"But we are friends, I should accompany you."
Xiu Yangui smiled indifferently, "You were sick at that time, have you forgotten?"
"Besides, I'm fine. I'm fine now."
Is everything really okay? Is everything really fine? If it is true, why did he hear those people in the community say some time ago, asking her not to come to him again?
Xiu Yangui is lying again, he is not good at all.
Xi Mo's intuition told her that the "matter" that Xiu Yangui had just mentioned was the key.
"What did you mean by 'thing'? What happened?"
Xiu Yangui opened his mouth several times, but then closed it again. He said in a hoarse voice, "Don't ask anymore, Xi Momo."
"Just, I got scolded a few times."
Xi Mo lowered her head and wiped away her tears. She could feel that the incident had caused great harm to Xiu Yangui, but she was unable to be by his side at that time, and she did not take the initiative to look for him after being discharged from the hospital.
Xi Mo was crying silently. Xiu Yangui finally couldn't help it and reached out to hug Xi Mo.
The trauma of youth will not heal with time, but will become bigger and bigger, and the wounds will become deeper and deeper.
After something happened, he could find someone to express his feelings to as soon as possible, but after a few years, it was difficult for him to speak again.
Fortunately, Xi Mo will be by his side this time. There will no longer be a dark entrance or a closed door, but clear and pure eyes full of concern and a warm hug that can dispel the gloom and coldness.
Xi Mo sat up from her knees, moved closer to Xiu Yangui, buried herself in Xiu Yangui's arms, and hugged Xiu Yangui tightly.
This is a hug from a friend who has been a good friend since childhood.
Xiu Yangui was not sad because of the painful experience he just recalled, but he almost burst into tears because of this hug.
"Xi Momo..."
Xi Mo sobbed, "I feel uncomfortable."
"What's wrong, Xi Momo."
"You are sad, and I am sad."
Xiu Yangui hugged her tighter, wanting to merge her into his flesh and blood, and carve her into his bones.
In the hot and scorching years of youth, there is always someone who makes you fall in love, makes your heart beat, and makes you feel the strongest beat of your own heart.
Chen Nianyu was on the phone for quite a long time. After returning from the balcony, Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo had already calmed down. Apart from their overly moist pupils and red corners of their eyes, nothing else could be seen.
At noon, the three of them ate a small cake together to celebrate Xiu Yangui's birthday. Although it was his 18th birthday, Xiu Yangui felt that there was no need to make a big fuss. As long as he could be with his good friends and the people closest to him, that was enough.
"The merchant also gave me a little hat. It's so cute. It has cat ears on it."
Xi Mo also took a look at it and said, "It's cute, do you want to wear it?"
"Ayan, wear it, it's cute!"
Xiu Yangui didn't want to wear the silly pink birthday hat, but Chen Nianyu and Xi Mo insisted that he wear it and even took a photo of him with the cake.
"Smile and say eggplant~"
Xiu Yangui refused to cooperate and even had a sullen face. Chen Nianyu immediately turned to look at Xi Mo, who was also holding up her phone to take a photo of Xiu Yangui. She said to him, "Xiu Yangui, eggplant."
Xiu Yangui was very concerned about his reputation, "...Is my head made of dough?"
After a second, "Eggplant."
After hearing two "click" and "click" sounds, Xiu Yangui suddenly felt ashamed. It would be fine if you just took the picture, but why did you turn on the sound?
Without giving him time to cover his face in anger, Chen Nianyu pulled Xi Mo to sing Happy Birthday to Xiu Yangui.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you~"
Chen Nianyu almost yelled so loudly that the people who were renovating next door complained.
Seeing Chen Nianyu singing so hard, Xi Mo thought that all birthday songs should be sung like this, so she followed Chen Nianyu and shouted until her face turned red.
"Okay, okay, okay, I made a wish, quiet."
Xiu Yangui was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He quickly closed his eyes, made a wish, blew out the candles, and took off his hat in one go.
"Yeah, yeah, time to eat cake! Princess, come here, I'll cut a big piece for you."
Even cake couldn't stop Chen Nianyu's mouth. "Princess, why don't you come over tonight? With Ah Yan here, they won't force you to drink."
Although there were many boys at the evening party, there were also many girls. Qin Xinwei was there, as were all the classmates in her class.
But Xi Mo had her period last night, so she will feel uncomfortable for the first two days.
Xiu Yangui knew about this and glanced at Chen Nianyu, "She is not feeling well and is playing with Moli at home."
"Okay, then I'll take a picture and show it to you. It must be very lively."
"good."
Xiu Yangui frowned and reminded him: "You also brought Yu Lan, you have to treat him well. You don't have time to take pictures. Be more mature and don't always cling to Xi Mo."
Chen Nianyu took a bite of cake and said, "What? You didn't let me stick to you before, saying you didn't like being clingy. So now I can't stick to the princess?"
Then he turned around and asked Xi Mo: "Princess, don't you like people being clingy?"
"How cute it is to be clingy."
Xi Mo looked at the self-promoting Chen Nianyu, thought for a moment, and didn't lie, "I like clingy people."
"See! The princess loves to be clingy."
Chen Nianyu glanced at Xiu Yangui with a smug look, and said, "It's well known that the princess doesn't lie. She just likes to be clingy. I am very clingy, so the princess likes me."
"Ayan, you don't seem to be clingy, right? The princess doesn't like you."
“Eat your cake and eat it too.”
Xiu Yangui rolled his eyes at Chen Nianyu and said, "I'll call Yu Lan later."
Chen Nianyu was anxious, "Why did you call Yu Lan!"
"Tell him not to play games with you. You only stick with Xi Mo anyway."
"You like Xi Mo, right? Okay, I get it. I'll tell Yu Lan later."
“What, what!”
Facing Xiu Yangui's provocative and dark eyes, Chen Nianyu was scared and said, "Isn't it okay if I don't stick to the princess? Don't call him."
Chen Nianyu couldn't explain why, but his brother Yu Lan was different from his other brothers. As for how different, he didn't know yet.
Xi Mo has become accustomed to the way the two of them get along. Chen Nianyu is at the bottom of the food chain. If Zhou Beizhen is there, Zhou Beizhen will also be at the bottom of the food chain. The two of them will tease Zhou Beizhen together, and Zhou Beizhen will never fail to be fooled.
"Okay, let's go. Princess, we're leaving now. You and Moli can stay home."
It seemed like this was Chen Nianyu's home, the host was very arrogant, and Xiu Yangui couldn't say a word even when he was standing next to him.
"What's your business?" After pushing Chen Nianyu out of the door, Xiu Yangui was speechless towards Xi Mo who was holding Moli. "Uh...you, you guys have fun."
Xi Mo nodded and petted the kitten, "You guys have fun too."
"No problem, Princess."
Xiu Yangui was almost annoyed to death by Chen Nianyu. He was everywhere. "Then we'll leave first."
"Bye-Bye."
Xi Mo pulled up one of Moli's little paws and waved it together. Xiu Yangui felt a little elated, as if they were a couple with a cat at home and a naughty son.
Chen Nianyu's son couldn't even go downstairs peacefully. "When will the elevator in your building be repaired? I can just walk, but you make the princess climb the stairs every time."
Xiu Yangui's steps slowed down for a moment. It was not that he hadn't asked the property management to repair it, but it was useless even if he did.
Since it broke down in my first year of high school, it has been repaired no less than four times, and every time after repair, problems would arise for various reasons.
First the circuits, then the buttons, and then the elevator was sprayed with paint, as if a ghost was haunting it.
In fact, Xiu Yangui knew who it was, just like he knew who abused Moli.
It’s Fang Sai.
But it wasn't him who broke the elevator, but the kid he hired. The surveillance camera captured it. The kid ran into the building and broke the elevator. There was nothing anyone else could do because it was just a kid.
Fang Sai was taking revenge on him.
After Xiu Yangui was admitted to Moral Education High School, he never saw Fang Sai again, nor was he beaten by the thugs he hired again.
Xiu Yangui knew the reason. The first reason was that Fang Sai was two years older than him and was already an adult.
If he continues to retaliate against Xiu Yangui, he will have to go to jail like his father Fang Guoxiang.
The second reason was that the people he brought were no longer able to defeat Xiu Yangui, and Xiu Yangui had started fighting in Sanda since he was beaten by Fang Sai.
Unless Fang Sai finds a dozen people to surround Xiu Yangui, he won't be able to touch a single hair of Xiu Yangui.
But now, Fang Sai appeared again, and I wonder what tricks he will play next.
If Fang Sai uses the same tricks again this time, he must protect himself, because someone at home will cry if he gets hurt.
That person was his best friend since childhood.
After playing for a while at his birthday party, he was still thinking about Xi Mo at home, so he took out his cell phone and found a topic.
【xiuyG: Anian is missing. Did he take a photo of you?】
[mol: No, did he and Lan start dating? ]
Xiu Yangui paused while typing.
【xiuyG: Who told you that? 】
[mol: Weiwei, Weiwei said she just saw Lan holding Chen Nianyu tightly, and Chen Nianyu was blushing.]
[mol: Are they in a relationship? ]
Well... this is his brother's private matter, and he doesn't know much about it. Anyway, Yu Lan is not a bad person, at least he won't be that bad to Chen Nianyu.
【xiuyG: Not yet.】
Then Xiu Yangui sent the screenshots of his chat with Xi Mo to Yu Lan, trying to get him to be more restrained.
[Lan: I took Chen Nianyu away.]
Damn it, I told you to control yourself. Xiu Yangui was so angry that he wanted to tie up these two people and throw them into the sea.
Alas, Xiu Yangui felt a little melancholy. Seeing others falling in love, bah, seeing others... in pairs, he was really envious.
I really want to confess my feelings.
But now he has finally reconciled his relationship with Xi Mo and they have become best friends again. Is he going to ruin it?
