There is a girl named Xia Tong

Chapter 48

There was a great atmosphere at the New Year's Ball night.The dance floor is wide enough for hundreds of people to dance at the same time. The mottled lights dance in the whole room. There are colorful leather sofas beside the dance floor. Like the ethereal stars in the night sky.Place a few small frosted glass scented candlesticks on the glass coffee table, and the charming fragrance will sway in the air.

When Xu Fan and I arrived at the venue, Lu Zichen was leaning on the orange sofa drinking red wine, we walked over and sat down.Under the faint light, the girl next to him looked very familiar, but it was Yang Yi.

I looked at her carefully, she was wearing a light blue bubble skirt, like a little princess.At this time, she seemed a little nervous, but she was very different from the one I saw a few months ago, not so timid.Zichen looked at her, and gently grabbed her hand, she trembled, then lowered her head and smiled.

I thought to myself, this can't be Zichen's new girlfriend!However, Zichen probably doesn't like this type.

Just as she was thinking, Su Yun and Shen Man walked over.Su Yun is wearing a tight red sleeveless top and a sexy white miniskirt.And Shen Man was wearing a light red suspender dress, which didn't have too many patterns and decorations, but it fully showed her graceful figure.

Shen Man sat beside me, blinking mischievously: "I have prepared a New Year's gift for you!"

I was a little surprised: "Really?"

"Well," she said, she took out an exquisite dark blue gift box from her handbag.I took it, opened it gently, and the thin light brown thread wore a light blue crystal pendant.On the pure white velvet, the exquisitely carved crystal reflects the dazzling light.

This reminds me of the precious and fine crystals in Tongtong's room, in various styles and colors.Because Tongtong likes to collect crystals, whenever we find unique crystals, we will buy them and give them to her.

Although I am not sensitive to it, I was very happy when I received it.Shen Man held my hand and asked affectionately, "Do you like it?"

I nodded.

Su Yun said: "Shen Man chose for a long time, I'm afraid you don't like it. She treats you so well, I'm almost jealous."

After hearing this, Shen Man slapped Su Yun lightly.

I was full of gratitude in my heart: "Thank you!" Speaking of it, after dating Shen Man for more than a month, I realized that she is really a very cute girl.

Zichen looked at his watch and looked around: "What are Hao and Tongtong doing? Why haven't they come yet!" I also felt a little strange.Zichen picked up the wine glass and just put it to his lips, when he inadvertently glanced at the entrance.For a moment, as if he was touched by the alchemy in One Thousand and One Nights, he stared blankly in that direction, motionless.

Xu Fan, Su Yun and Yang Yi also had the same expressions.

Shen Man and I looked at each other, and then we turned our heads to follow their gaze.

I hold my breath.

Tongtong smiled and walked towards us holding Ouyang's arm. Ouyang was dressed in a well-tailored, finely crafted black suit, noble and elegant.He looked at Tongtong with a hint of tenderness at the corner of his mouth.

And Tongtong was wearing a pure white long dress, the silky and fluorescent satin set off her jade-like skin almost transparently.The skirt was covered with a layer of white gauze that seemed transparent, and the hem of the skirt curved from high to low, revealing ivory knees and slender calves.As she walked, the skirt decorated with fine bricks and stones like stars danced playfully and briskly.Her natural and smooth long hair was combed obediently to one side, a white ribbon was tied around her neck, and the long butterfly tail hung over her beautiful and distinct collarbone.

From childhood to adulthood, we have participated in countless dance parties, but Tongtong always appeared as a cute princess every time. This is the first time she appeared in a sexy and mature appearance.

Never found she could be so charming.Maturity and innocence, the two most beautiful elements of a woman are perfectly blended together in her body.

Therefore, this is the first time we see the charming Tongtong instead of the cute Tongtong.

Ouyang and Xia Tong came over and sat next to me.I stared at Xia Tong, unable to look away.She stuck out her tongue mischievously, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were full of excitement.

Zichen regained his composure, and finally took a sip of red wine stiffly.

Xu Fan slowly turned the wine glass in his hand, staring at the brick-like brilliance at the bottom of the goblet, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Su Yun said approvingly: "Tongtong, you are so beautiful today!" Tongtong was a little shy, and before she had time to say anything, Zichen interjected: "Yes! You are so charming. I just saw you at first glance. I want to be with you..."

Ouyang looked up at him, Zichen stopped, and laughed loudly: "I knew you would have this expression."

I couldn't help laughing.

Before Tongtong understood what was going on, Zichen immediately grabbed her hand and exaggeratedly kissed her.

Xia Tong quickly withdrew his hand, rubbed the back of his hand vigorously, and said angrily: "Lu Zichen, you are sick!" I laughed: "He, he drank too much."

Ouyang walked up to Xu Fan and sat down, and the two talked about something with a slight smile.Zichen blinked at me, then, leaning on the back of the sofa, put his hand on Yang Yi's shoulder, Yang Yi was startled and trembled slightly.

Xia Tong stared at the two of them, his eyes almost fell off.After a while, she said, "Lu Zichen, what are you doing to Yang Yi?" Zichen looked innocent: "You called me by my full name twice in a while, she is my dance partner! Of course I hug you." Holding her! Don't tell me, hugging you!" He looked at Xia Tong triumphantly, with a hint of rebellion at the corner of his mouth.

Xia Tong wanted to say something, but because of Yang Yi's presence, it was difficult to explain in person.So, she made a gesture, "If you do anything to Yang Yi, I will not be polite to you." At the end, she made a gesture to hit someone fiercely.Zichen smiled evilly and drew his strokes: "That depends on how I feel."

I took Xia Tong's hand and said softly: "Zichen is teasing you!" Xia Tong looked at me, waiting for me to finish speaking.

I smiled and lowered my voice: "Yang Yi is the secretary of the External Relations Department of the school's student union, and Zichen is the minister. The two of them are naturally very familiar, and it's normal to be a dance partner! Besides, Yang Yi is your junior sister, he will not What about her. Besides, when did that kid Zichen introduce his girlfriend to us?"

Xia Tong felt that what I said was quite reasonable, so he pouted, put his arms around my arm, leaned on my shoulder, and decided to ignore Zichen.

After a few pieces of dance music, Xia Tong said that he wanted to sleep.Then, as usual, I fell asleep on the sofa and fell asleep instantly.

Shen Man asked with concern: "Is Xia Tong tired?"

"Oh! No." I wanted her not to worry so much, and said with relief, "She just sleeps irregularly." Shen Man nodded half-understanding.Ouyang took Xia Tong's water-red windbreaker that he carried with him, covered her, and gently brushed her long hair.

That expression reminded me of Ouyang's expression when he lowered his head and stared at Xia Tong when they danced together just now, as if he was looking at a rare treasure, as if she was the only one in his world.

His eyebrows are as indifferent as spring water, his eyes are as deep as the sea under the moonlight, quiet and far-reaching, and the corners of his mouth are full of ethereal comfort and satisfaction.

A disturbing thought suddenly flashed in my mind, which made me very nervous, as if there was actually a dark current surging under the calm water for a long time, gradually accumulating strength year after year, and the secrets that had been hidden for many years were about to surface.

And by then, will the peaceful and beautiful life continue?
"Would you mind dancing together?" Shen Man's light words dragged me back from my fugue.

I looked up, and Shen Man was looking at Ouyang Hao with a smile, the blue waves in his gentle watery eyes were breathtaking.

Ouyang smiled charmingly: "Of course not." Then, he extended his hand to her in a gentlemanly manner.Shen Man slowly placed her slender and white right hand on Ouyang's palm, she gently lowered her black eyelashes, and suddenly a blush floated on her cheeks.

After Su Yun finished dancing with Jiang Hanshui, she leaned over and said mysteriously, "Xiao Mu, do you think they are a good match?"

I didn't respond for a while: "Who?"

Su Yun thought I was pretending to be stupid, so she elbowed me: "Of course it's Ouyang and Shen Man. Otherwise, who do you think I'm talking about!" I looked over, and sure enough, the two were just like the prince and Shen Man in fairy tales. The princess, accompanied by melodious dance music, dances in the colorful and blurred lights.

I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I picked up the glass in a panic to hide my uneasy expression. The bright yellowish liquid was astringent, and there was a tingling pain in my throat.

Su Yun asked: "Xiao Mu, what's the matter with you?" I stuck out my tongue: "Oh! It's so bitter!"

Su Yun didn't care too much, just smiled comfortably.

At the end of the dance, Xia Tong was still sleeping, and Shen Man asked softly, "Do you want to wake her up?"

I said: "No, Ouyang will take her back. Besides, she really has too little sleep time."

Shen Man was slightly startled: "Do Xia Tong and Ouyang Hao live together?"

I was a little surprised by her expression: "Yes!"

Then, I started to worry about how I should answer her if she asked further.I can't lie to my friend, but I can't tell her the truth, because it will hurt Tongtong.Fortunately, she didn't continue to ask, it seemed that she was just asking casually.

Ouyang gently hugged Xia Tong, and just a few steps away, Xia Tong woke up.Ouyang then let her down and helped her put on her coat. Xia Tong plunged his head into Ouyang's arms sleepily and muttered. Ouyang lowered his head and said something softly, Xia Tong shook his head.Ouyang raised the corners of his mouth and tightened her neckline, then raised his smiling face and hugged her out.

I followed slowly, thinking about the scene just now, always feeling a little worried.At this time, Shen Man and Su Yun came over, and Shen Man pretended to be wronged and said: "Xiao Mu, Su Yun abandoned me."

I immediately recovered from my thoughts: "What's wrong! She bullied you!"

Shen Man pouted: "The guy who values ​​sex and despises friends is going to run away with Jiang Hanshui."

When Su Yun heard this, she looked guilty: "Okay, okay! I will make it up to you next time."

Seeing Su Yun's pitiful look, I smiled and said, "Okay! Make it up to me next time! Today I will accompany Shen Man for you."

Su Yun didn't react, I laughed out loud: "After a while, Shen Man can go to my house to play." Shen Man happily took my arm and stuck out his tongue at Su Yun in a demonstrative manner.I can't help laughing.

Suddenly, she felt that Shen Man was a child like Xia Tong.

Su Yun shrugged her shoulders in relief, and thanked me with a wink.

In the dark blue night, one or two stars shone with fragile light, the wind was very strong, and there was no pedestrian on the road in the community, and the magnolia flower street lamp was waiting alone in the cold wind.In a trance, a small piece of snowflakes flew onto the glass, I leaned over, but only found a small water stain.Looking closer, there is no trace of snowflakes outside the window, only a few withered and yellow leaves bumping in the wind.Could the snowflake just now be an illusion?
Shen Man walked over with the photo album in his arms: "Why are you in a daze?"

I smiled: "No, I seem to have seen snow just now."

Shen Man searched out the window for a while: "There seems to be nothing! Did you read it wrong?"

I left the window: "Maybe! And the weather forecast says there won't be snow in the next few days."

She walked to the tea table, knelt down on the carpet, opened the photo album, and looked at me: "Xiao Mu, you were so cute when you were young!"

I said: "Isn't it cute now?" She gave me a blank look: "That's not what I meant."

I tilted my head to look at the photos in the album, basically all of them were taken by me and Tongtong together.Ouyang, Xu Fan and Zichen had some, but not so many.

"Boys don't like taking pictures that much!" Shen Man flipped through the photos, "Have you known each other for a long time?"

"Well, we've known each other since birth."

After reading it, Shen Man carefully closed the photo album.I was amused by her exaggerated movements.

Shen Man pouted playfully and raised her head.She accidentally saw a row of crystals on the table, so she stood up and walked over, with a look of surprise on her face: "It's so beautiful!" Then she asked: "Do you collect crystals?"

I followed: "No. These are all sent by Tongtong. And, if you want to see crystals, you can go to Tongtong's bedroom. That's the Crystal Museum!"

Every year, Tongtong will choose one of her crystal collections for me.Every time she would say: "I'm tired of watching this, I don't like it anymore, I'll give it to you!"

But I know that what she gave me was her favorite thing, and she would never give me something she didn't like or care about.

Once, I heard Zichen ask her: "Tongtong, why do you always give Xiaomu the same thing?" Xia Tong said, "Because crystals have always been my favorite things!"

Shen Man picked up a piece of crystal and asked suspiciously: "Why does this look like..." When I saw it, it turned out to be half a swan.I said: "Oh! That's the dance of the swan." Shen Man was stunned: "The world's limited edition of the dance of the swan?" I nodded.Shen Man was even more strange: "How could that be?"

I smiled: "It was originally a gift from Ouyang for Tongtong's 16th birthday. But when it was my birthday, Tongtong asked someone to cut it in half."

Shen Man didn't speak, I took "Swan Dance" from her hand and put it in the palm of my hand.It is made of a rare jade crystal. Clear milky white lines spread across the body of the swan. Sometimes it is crystal clear, and sometimes it is hazy, with a few wisps of bright red "blood streaks" faintly visible.

I put it down carefully.Then he said to Shen Man: "Do you want to try milk and coffee?"

Last time, Tongtong brought some premium coffee beans and made me coffee with milk, saying it was her new invention.And now, that wonderful taste seems to still be lingering on the lips.

I was looking for coffee beans and milk, and Shen Man said, "Go ahead! I'll go to the bathroom."

I had just pressed the button for the coffee pot when I heard the bedroom door being pushed open.I was shocked, no one would come in at this time.The door was slammed shut immediately, but the man didn't go inside.

I bit my lip and walked over gently, a little scared.Slowly, through the layers of green leaves of orchid and bamboo, a figure I am all too familiar with appeared.Then came a deeper fear, I rushed over, looked at that person, and for a moment, the air froze.The chill quickly spread from the soles of the feet to the whole body.

Xia Tong leaned against the door, his face was covered with tears, his lips were pale, and his body was shaking violently.Her hair is disheveled, her clothes are disheveled, her white windbreaker is wrinkled, the light green checkered shirt inside has been torn, the buttons are loose, the neckline is torn in several places, and there is a long scratch on her neck .

My mind went blank and I didn't know what to do.What happened?Who did it?Are you hurt?How could it be like this? ...

A host of questions swirl in my head, but I try to calm myself down.I took her to the sofa and sat down. Her hands were as cold as ice for thousands of years, and my heart seemed to be pierced by a cold awl.

I held her in my arms, and her head rested on my shoulder, and the crying stopped, and slowly, her emotions eased, and she stopped shaking.

I just held her like that, hoping to suck all the pain out of her.I didn't ask her any questions, for fear that she wouldn't be able to accept it.

Later, she herself spoke:

"Brother Ouyang kissed me today...not on the forehead, not on the cheek...but on the lips. I was very surprised and asked him why...he said he liked me..."

I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, it was Ouyang?
"I told him, I like Brother Ouyang, but not like that... He was very angry and said that he was not allowed to call him Brother Ouyang in the future... I said...but he was... originally a brother! Then, he Very angry..."
