Chapter 26 26 Don’t move.
Shi Bohuan recalled that during high school morning exercises, Tang Ke stood in the last row of girls and he in the first row of boys, just standing together, one in front of the other. Every time they lined up, he would ruffle her hair like he was doing now, and then she would kick his knee with the heel of her shoe. He enjoyed hearing others despise them for flirting so early in the morning.
The difference was that now, as soon as he reached out his hand, she slapped it away. Her force wasn't strong, even considered polite, but the back of his hand felt incredibly painful.
The sound of a whistle caught her attention. She looked towards the source of the sound. Her hair was clearly still tousled in the wind, obscuring her features, tangling on her eyelashes and sticking to her wet lips. But she seemed to suddenly forget all that. The joy in her eyes was clear as she trotted over with light steps, not even looking back once. She only left a quick farewell that was not forceful, even polite, but it made his heart ache:
"My husband is here, I'm leaving first!"
She is always like this, impetuous and impatient. When she broke up with me, she left with harsh words and never looked back. It seemed that she never tried to keep me and always moved forward.
No, besides moving forward, Tang Ke could also turn. With a twist of her hips, she slipped smoothly into the passenger seat, slammed the door shut, and then cautiously turned to look at Fu Yu, who had just honked the horn to celebrate the New Year.
Uh, what a subtle expression.
The ID photo shows a pair of eyes on his paralyzed face that could be classified as a controlled knife.
She slowly leaned back, almost with her entire back pressed against the car door, and spoke first: "Why are you looking at me like that..."
Fu Yu glanced behind her and said, "Don't you want to introduce yourself? It's a class reunion."
It might be Tang Ke's illusion. She felt that when he said "class reunion", he was actually saying "Where are the classmates?" "What about the reunion?" "Why are there only two of you?"
"No, I can't. Everyone has dispersed at this time." She shook her head hesitantly. Logically, she has nothing to fear from her own shadow, but at the moment she felt inexplicably nervous.
Shi Bohuan's extraordinary behavior just now made her a little unhappy. This unhappiness turned into fear when Fu Yu saw it. The degree was no less than when she wanted to turn the table and the leader happened to pick up the dishes, and the order was messed up. She had a premonition that she could not get rid of even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
The car flashed its hazard lights, but the man at the intersection, standing under the electric pole, still stared at them with reluctance. Fu Yu could sense from afar that there was something fishy about this man, that he had ulterior motives.
His hand slipped off the steering wheel, and he looked at Tang Ke intently and said, "If you define me as a sleeping husband, then I won't ask. If not—"
Tang Ke's mouth shrunk into a Type-C charging port, and he complained: "Wow, what a terrible line."
"If not, I want to ask," Fu Yu continued, "who is he?"
"High school classmate." Tang Ke answered reluctantly.
"Just high school classmates?"
"If I have to say it, it was my ex-boyfriend, and it was a long time ago..." Tang Ke really didn't want to admit it by name, as dark history was always difficult to talk about.
To say that her ex-boyfriend is a severe case of straight male cancer who showed no sense of boundaries in intimate behavior even though he knew that his ex-girlfriend was married is no different from saying that she has eaten shit.
"oh."
It turns out that this person is her famous high school ex-boyfriend.
Fu Yu adjusted his sitting position sideways, facing her more, and asked, "Allow me to gossip a little more. Does your ex-boyfriend like you?"
Eeyore! Don't make her eat shit!
"I don't know what's wrong with him. He was fine during the day. But don't worry, I pushed him away!" Tang Ke explained desperately, trying to erase those few seconds of her social awkwardness from his mind. "I'm definitely not the kind of person who cheats and then lingers with her ex. I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry!"
Fu Yu closed his eyelids and muttered, "I can't deny that he likes you..."
It's shameful, so shameful, it's shameful, it's shameful to the extreme. Tang Ke wanted to travel back in time and erase all the multiple-choice questions on her ex-boyfriend's answer sheet, so that he could take the college entrance examination again. What a mess!
Fu Yu looked past her ear, gazing at the curb, and said, "He's still standing there. Is he waiting for me to go down and say hello to him?"
"No, no, no, no, no..." Tang Ke waved his hands, "It's too embarrassing. Even I don't want to face him again, let alone you."
"Didn't you say he was having a seizure? He needs to be taken to the hospital." The innocent tone sounded sarcastic.
"Brother, listen to me first." Tang Ke blocked his sight, making sure that only her face was in his pupils, and said seriously with a hint of collapse:
"I don't care whether he has those feelings towards me or not. He really annoyed me tonight, and you happened to see me. I'm really embarrassed. I won't argue with him because we're old classmates, but from now on, I'll immediately avoid him when I see him and won't have any contact with him at all. So don't gossip too much, and it's best to forget those few seconds. I'm in a state of panic right now. Jianqiu..."
She pressed the solar plexus painfully.
Fu Yu lifted the mirror frame and said, "Then I must go over and warn him. He who violates a woman's will should be dragged out and beaten or executed."
"Alright, alright, let's go. I really don't want to see him again. He has ruined my good mood for the whole day!" Tang Ke just wanted to escape from this dangerous place.
"No, the law is long and wide, and nothing can escape it." Fu Yu was extremely stubborn.
"What can you do? To put it mildly, he just touched my hair and didn't explicitly say he wanted to return to me. What if he sues you for killing innocent people? Oh my god, the more I think about it, the more disgusted I get!" Tang Ke roared in a low voice, "Ah ...
"Let out some air and you won't feel annoyed anymore," Fu Yu said.
Tang Ke looked up dazedly: "Breathe out? How do I let out my anger?"
Fu Yu slightly bent his four fingers and brought them together, motioning her to come closer.
A typical prelude to a whisper. Tang Ke leaned forward to listen.
However, to her surprise, his cold palm came to her before she whispered.
A force pulled his neck forward, and a chest gradually became larger in his field of vision. He was wrapped in a gust of cool wind and rushed towards him. Tang Ke's brain suddenly went blank, but his senses became extremely sensitive.
Feeling his body temperature on her forehead, her heart trembled.
"Varied……"
"Don't move."
The breathing was very light and close, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if she was shrouded in a thick fog, and her eyes were fixed on his slowly rising and falling heart.
His forehead was against hers, their bangs might have gotten tangled together, as did their breathing.
"Do you... want to airdrop something to me?" Tang Ke asked in a low voice.
Fu Yu's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he thought, yes, there are a lot.
I want to tell you that I am jealous and worried about gains and losses, and I think that quitting while I am ahead is the smartest way to go. But when I see that there are other options around you, I feel so stupid.
I want to tell you that my recklessness is beyond your imagination. I held your hand because I wanted to ask for a chance from you. I hugged you as well, and now I am asking for a chance from you.
I failed as a friend because I had improper thoughts about you. I also failed as a husband because I didn't dare to tell him about these improper thoughts.
I like you.
"Fu Yu?" Tang Ke called his name. He was clearly still breathing, so why was there no movement for such a long time?
"Exorcising evil spirits," he said, his voice as plain as water. "Be good little beasts, the bad guys have all been driven away."
The match was successful.
"I have the courage and I'm not afraid, no matter if it's winter or summer."
Tang Ke's singing skills have always been worthy of recognition. Perhaps because the audience was too close, the tone of this sentence was extremely unusual and far away.
Fu Yu let go of his hand, leaned back in his seat, and calmly busied himself with fastening his seatbelt, releasing the parking brake, and said, "He's gone."
Tang Ke looked out the window and said, "He's really gone."
"Well, he saw us kissing and left."
"Where are we—Oh my god, you're so smart." Tang Ke suddenly realized that this was what he called venting his anger. She raised the corners of her mouth and asked, "What was his expression before he left? Did you see it?"
"I saw it, that expression of eating shit." Fu Yu accidentally turned on the wrong wiper and quickly straightened it.
Tang Ke didn't notice. Immersed in the pleasant afterglow of the counterattack, he snapped his fingers vigorously, "I told you that someone else should eat shit."
The dark clouds in her heart dissipated, and she turned around with a smile to praise Fu Yu. Coincidentally, the high beams of an oncoming car illuminated his face, and she saw a red earlobe.
Huh? Wait.
Actually, he's not good at these intimate things, right? He has to ask if he wants to hold hands, he has to avoid hugging, and after an airdrop, he can go donate blood after connecting an IV line. He's just not good at it.
He was so cool showing off that he didn't even notice his bag fell to the ground behind him.
Just now, for a moment, she felt that she was a bit hypocritical. When Shi Bohuan touched her, even with a small touch on the top of her head, she felt extremely uncomfortable, thinking that this man not only could not distinguish right from wrong but also had ulterior motives. But when Fu Yu touched her, she was not so resistant. Instead, she looked forward to what he would do next. To put it another way, no, it should be to put it another way, if he really kissed her, she might not push him away. It was as if she had already tacitly agreed in her heart that no matter what happened, the more shy person would definitely be Fu Yu.
When others are embarrassed, she is not embarrassed; when others are shy, she is not shy. The world is a huge quantum entanglement.
"What are you laughing at?"
"ah?"
Fu Yu asked abruptly in the quiet air where only the faint sound of car engines could be heard. He turned his head and glanced at her. She was neither playing with her phone nor looking at the scenery. She was just clutching her handbag and grinning.
Tang Ke came back to his senses, rubbed the tip of his nose, and said, "It's nothing, I was born with smiling lips."
It would be strange if Fu Yu would buy it, "Tell me, what's wrong with me in your head?"
"Really not." Tang Ke was planning to remove the surveillance camera he installed in her mind someday. Privacy, you know? Privacy.
"It just occurred to me," she poked him out of the corner of her eye, pouting mischievously, and said, "You were a little jealous just now."
The car arrived downstairs at Tang Ke's parents' house. She was staying there tonight. Fu Yu looked up from the windshield. Her house was still lit.
Another good opportunity to light firecrackers and run away immediately.
"What else? He's driving without a license. Can't I be jealous?" he said.
Tang Ke didn't expect him to be so frank, so he smiled even more and repeated his words: "Driving without a license... Who has a license? Do you have a license?"
"Don't I?" Fu Yu looked at her.
"Yes, you do." Tang Ke couldn't hide his smile and gave him a thumbs up with great certainty.
Without looking in the mirror, Fu Yu knew how red his cheeks were, burning hot.
He opened his big hands to cover Tang Ke's entire face, solving the fire problem at the source.
"Go away and don't make fun of me here."
The contrast of cuteness hit Tang Ke's heart. She laughed loudly like a gangster, her laughter echoing throughout the community, and walked away with a swagger.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Tank: You don’t know how fun this little thing is!
ForU: My powerlessness has once again become my downfall.

The real author has this to say:
"Abstract Couple" has officially changed its name to "She is only abstract and doesn't love me"! The copywriting has also changed -v-
It was originally a short story, but it's gotten longer and longer, probably around 60,000 to 70,000 words. After all, they're going to live together, and living together takes up quite a bit of space. So, I figured if it's just silly, it might as well be silly. And if it's just sloppy, it might as well be sloppy, so I changed the title and description.
