Miss you
What Xia Tangyue understood was - will you choose their B&B next time you travel?
"I will definitely come again if I have the chance."
The mobile phone placed on the center console recess suddenly lit up.
Xia Tangyue glanced at it and saw that the caller's note was Duanmu. Wen Zheng pressed the answer button on the screen and the other party's voice came from the car speaker.
"Your headphones are here. Do you want me to bring them to you?"
"I'll go get it. It'll be here in about ten minutes."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Zheng said, "I'll go take a detour to get the headphones, and then take you back."
Xia Tangyue had no objection to this. Not long after, the car stopped downstairs of a convenient hotel.
This town has everything good, beautiful scenery, cheap prices, and delicious food. Unfortunately, the infrastructure is not very good, and there is not a single star hotel in the town. This convenient hotel is the best in the area.
Wen Zheng sent a WeChat message to Duanmu Yu in the car, telling him that he had arrived, and then got out of the car.
Xia Tangyue was waiting in the car and saw a man slowly walking out of the hotel lobby.
Just when she was bored, she saw a bird stuck in the rain grate, which seemed to have accidentally tripped while looking for food. She pushed the door open, got out of the car, picked up the bird and let it fly away.
"Is there anyone else in your car?" Duanmu Yu asked.
Just at this moment, Xia Tang jumped out of the car. After taking a look, he curiously asked Wen Zheng, "Who is this?"
Wen Zhenglue hesitated for a moment and said, "My sister."
"Sister?" Duanmu Yu was a little surprised. As a close friend, he knew Wen Zheng's family background very well and knew that he was adopted, but he never knew that he had such a big sister.
"You have such a beautiful sister." Duanmu Yu said casually. Unexpectedly, Wen Zheng stared at him with a cold look.
Duanmu Yu was slightly startled, then smiled and jokingly said, "You have a sister control."
"Leave."
Back in the car, Wen Zheng drove as usual, sent Xia Tangyue back to the B&B, and brought her an ice pack.
The sprained foot no longer felt much, so Xia Tangyue returned the ice pack and went upstairs.
Xi Na was already waiting, and the first thing she said when she saw her was: "How is it?"
Xia Tangyue said truthfully: "Nothing, just chatted for a while and then came back."
Xi Na looked a bit disappointed, she sat on the sofa with her arms folded, shaking her head. Xia Tangyue sat down with her and said seriously: "Although I am a little moved, I don't know him well enough."
"He looks older than me, but I don't know how much older he is. I don't know how many relationships he had in the past, either. So..."
Xia Tangyue didn't know what to say for the rest. She always felt that this was too rash.
"You're thinking too much." Xi Na poked her head with her index finger: "Enjoy it and you'll gain it. When it comes to love, why think so long-term? Just go for it if you like it. Not everyone has the opportunity to date a handsome guy."
"Wouldn't it be embarrassing if my confession failed?"
Xi Na raised her eyebrows and said, "When the time comes, you can just pat your butt and go back to Beijing. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
"I think you will regret it if you don't take any action now that you are moved." Xi Na leaned back on the sofa and said, "The heartbeat of an adult is too precious."
"Think about it, you are 24 years old and have never been attracted to anyone except him. This means that Wen Zheng is the type you like. If you miss him, you may always regret why you didn't have the courage to fight for him in the future."
"Tangtang, don't leave any regrets for yourself."
Xia Tangyue fell silent.
The next day.
Xina received an urgent task and left for the airport early in the morning.
Xia Tangyue found Zhuang Chen and asked him about going out to sea.
Zhuang Chen told her the address and also contacted her for a boat to go out to sea. However, many tourists have flocked to see Blue Tears recently, resulting in a shortage of boat masters. Xia Tangyue rented a boat but couldn't find someone to drive it.
She asked Zhuang Chen to help her think of a solution.
But after an entire afternoon, Zhuang Chen still hadn't found a boat driver available. After pondering for a while, he came up with an idea: "Why not let my brother drive? He knows how to drive a boat, and you two are going together anyway."
"Alright."
There is nothing that can be done now that things have come to this.
She felt very embarrassed that she had to repay the favor and trouble Wen Zheng to drive the boat himself.
Seeing Xia Tangyue's gloomy expression, Zhuang Chen said, "Don't worry, my brother is quite free these days. If you ask him out, he will definitely go."
This is not what Xia Tangyue was thinking.
She glanced at Zhuang Chen who was playing games, and asked about Wen Zheng's personal situation intentionally or unintentionally. Zhuang Chen didn't care and told her everything he knew.
"My brother is a generation older than me. Although we are not brothers, he is very good to me and always thinks of me when there is something good."
"You asked if my brother has a girlfriend? No. Although he met several blind dates with my mother's help a few years ago, there was no follow-up. They just had a meal together to show their respect to the elders."
"Actually, if he wasn't accompanying me to take the college entrance exam, my brother wouldn't normally live here. He has a house in Beijing. He lives alone and definitely doesn't live with anyone."
"In short, my brother is a good man that is hard to find even with a lantern."
“…”
After confirming the itinerary, Xia Tangyue returned to his room and booked a flight back to Beijing on Tuesday. He made an appointment with Wen Zheng on WeChat to go to the island tomorrow.
We will be leaving this town soon.
Xia Tangyue sat on the windowsill in a daze. Two magpies were playing on the branches. After one flew away, the other quickly followed.
The next day, after Xia Tangyue treated Wen Zheng to a seafood dinner, they arrived at the pier to take a boat.
A speedboat was docked at the shore. After Xia Tangyue checked the model with the contact person and confirmed that this was the boat they wanted to take, he guided Wen Zheng to get on board.
The afternoon sun was blazing at the beach. Wen Zheng wore a pair of sunglasses, a white shirt and grey casual pants. He stood out on the boat, attracting the young ladies on the fishing boats nearby to look back at him.
Watching him skillfully steering the boat, Xia Tangyue explained, "I wanted to ask a master to steer the boat, but I couldn't find anyone, so I have to trouble you."
Wen Zheng curled his lips and smiled, sitting leisurely beside him, meeting Xia Tangyue's gaze: "Why did you think of inviting me to the island to play?"
Xia Tangyue sat in the cabin, facing the fan to blow away the stuffy air, and looked out of the cabin when she heard the words. Wen Zheng stood on the deck, and the sea breeze lifted the collar of his open shirt - the two buttons from the Adam's apple down were loose, revealing a sharp collarbone.
"I asked Zhuang Chen about it. He said this island is very beautiful at night. Besides, you helped me so much last time, and I haven't thanked you properly yet."
"Yeah." Wen Zheng adjusted the speedboat to automatic driving mode, left the rudder and entered the cabin, sitting opposite her: "He is right, the island has not been commercially developed and is still very pristine. If we are lucky, we will be able to see the fluorescent sea later."
The cabin was not big, and Wen Zheng was tall and had long legs, so their knees inevitably came together as the ride was bumpy.
Xia Tangyue avoided him somewhat awkwardly, but found that Wen Zheng seemed to be staring at her.
"What's wrong?"
"When do you plan to return to Beijing?"
"I've booked a ticket for the day after tomorrow."
"Um."
Wow——
The weather at sea changes suddenly. It was sunny just now, but suddenly it started to rain heavily.
Raindrops hit the cabin roof with a crackling sound, and sharp lightning split the sky. Xia Tangyue, who lived in an inland area, had never seen such a scene before. He stood up nervously and looked outside. His face was instantly covered with rain.
Wen Zheng grabbed her shoulders and pulled her back.
She couldn't help but say, "What should we do? Should we get to the shore quickly?"
Wen Zheng glanced at the sky, turned back and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, it will be fine soon."
The fact was that Xia Tangyue was not afraid at all. She looked at the sky outside which looked like it was at night, and she felt excited, as if she were the protagonist in a doomsday movie.
It seems that what Xina said is right, she doesn't like peace, she likes excitement. Maybe she has been a good girl who follows the routine too much, so she wants to take an adventure like this.
She held the handle and stared at the rolling black waves in front of her, feeling an unprecedented excitement in her heart.
"How daring." Wen Zheng's voice came from behind her head: "Are you not afraid of being swept under by the waves by standing here?"
That being said, when Xia Tangyue turned around, she found that she was completely trapped inside Wen Zheng's circle and no matter how strong the waves were, they couldn't lift her up.
A trace of warmth involuntarily slipped through her heart, and her brows relaxed.
“I’m not scared at all, I even find it very exciting.”
Wen Zheng smiled and said, "I'll take you to do something more exciting next time."
Just as Wen Zheng said, the rainstorm stopped soon. Not long after, the sun was back in the sky, as if nothing had happened.
"How do you know the rain will stop soon?"
Wen Zheng sat at the window again and steered the boat. He took off his sunglasses and wiped off the rain on the surface. "I have lived by the sea since I was a child, so I am naturally familiar with the weather at sea."
His bony fingers shone white in the sun, and veins extended from the inside of his wrist to his biceps, with the masculine power balanced at a very delicate point in his body.
Xia Tangyue felt like he was going crazy.
She actually had a lot of thoughts about Wen Zheng's finger. She quickly shifted her gaze and saw an island not far away. She pointed and said, "Is it over there?"
"Yes." Wen Zheng controlled the direction and headed towards the shore.
But just as the boat was about to reach the shore, the rumbling sound stopped. Wen Zheng checked and concluded that it was out of fuel.
"Ah?" Xia Tangyue was angry and helpless. He quickly called the contact person, who said that he had forgotten to refuel and would arrange a boat to pick them up later.
"It's not a big deal." Wen Zheng jumped off the boat from the side. Xia Tangyue looked at him in surprise and found that he was pushing the boat towards the shore.
Fortunately, the distance was not far, and after the speedboat docked, Wen Zheng helped her get off the boat.
