the time you love

Chapter 18 The Carousel Horse (4)
I am speechless.He even said about nurturing, so one can imagine what Tong Keshu said behind his back.He has already sentenced me to death, so I don't need to waste any more words, it's just futile sophistry.Soudi felt disheartened for a while, and thought that they could get together and get together, but unexpectedly it ended like this.

"She is my girlfriend now, after breaking up with you. Also, it's not your so-called nurturing." Zhou Nuoyan's cold voice sounded in my ear, "You, apologize to her."

In the blink of an eye, Shen Su's fist swung past me.

Zhou Nuoyan reacted very quickly, and naturally this punch failed to land on him.I was worried that Shen Su would be injured, so I rushed forward to separate the two of them. Shen Su blushed and almost lost his mind. I blocked him with my body and shouted in a low voice: "Calm down, some things are not what you imagined. Let's sit down calmly." Come down and talk, okay?"

The crowd of onlookers gradually increased, blatantly pointing at the three of us.I don't understand why these people like to watch other people quarrel and go to war. Isn't the eight o'clock show every day not enough for them to watch?I was completely ashamed tonight. First, Zhou Nuoyan’s inexplicable kiss, followed by Shen Su’s questioning, and now it has developed to countering violence with violence. Such a scene of entertaining the public will actually happen in For me, I never thought about it before.

"Everyone stop!" A deliberately suppressed angry shout came from outside the crowd, and I knew who it was without looking back.The Minister of Security and several customer service personnel rushed over and quickly dispersed the crowd in twos and threes.

Tong Keshu walked up to me, glared at Shen Su first, then turned to Zhou Nuoyan, "Mr. Zhou? I'm Shen Su's mother."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Zhou Nuoyan hooked the corners of his lips and said.

"Mr. Zhou came all the way, presumably because of Ms. He's business?" Tong Keshu looked at Zhou Nuoyan with gloomy eyes while talking, "If it's convenient, I would like to have a private talk with Mr. Zhou."

"That's exactly what I mean, Mrs. Shen. I heard that tonight is President Wu's big day. It must be full of guests. I will ask Mrs. Shen to help introduce me later."

I just remembered that Tang Ningning and the others were discussing gossip about Principal Wu's future daughter-in-law a few days ago. At that time, I was so annoyed that I didn't pay attention to the date. It turned out to be today!He glanced at Tong Keshu inadvertently, and found that her gloomy face turned a little pale after Zhou Nuoyan finished speaking.

Shen Su stood motionless, and I had no choice but to stick to the same spot. Zhou Nuoyan looked at me and said with a smile: "Bixi, you go back to your room to rest, and I will find you later."

His smile was clearly for Tong Keshu to see, and I responded with a low voice.

Tong Keshu raised her chin immediately, and said to Shen Su: "Go back to the lobby, your father is waiting for you to toast with me."

Shen Su turned around and left without looking at me any more.I instinctively wanted to grab him and explain a few words to him. Tong Keshu's sharp eyes were more accurate than Xiao Li Feidao's, so I had no choice but to give up.

If it is destined to break up, will it be easier to forget each other?so be it.

The hotel waiter helped me carry Zhou Nuoyan's luggage into my room.When he went out, I sat between the two big bags in a daze for a while, my mind was a little confused, I didn't know what to do.

Turn on the TV, dump out the contents of the bag, and organize it over and over again.Then I called Wen Lin back and told her what happened just now. She was silent for a few seconds and said, "I said earlier that Shen Su is not suitable for you, so it's fine to break it off now. You don't care what he thinks of you." , as long as you don’t have anything to do in the future.”

I smiled wryly: "Wen Lin, what benefit did Zhou Nuoyan give you?"

"Damn girl!" Fang Wenlin gritted her teeth on the other end of the line, "You're still ashamed to say, let me ask you, are you ready to run away? It's fine if you don't tell Tang Ningning and the others, but you actually didn't even hide it from me. ! You're going too far."

"Don't be angry, I really have to. If you knew in advance, you wouldn't let me go."

"That's right, if I can't stop you, I'll tell Old Ban to stop you." Fang Wenlin sighed, her voice softened, "Actually, why bother, anyway, you have already decided to break up, you can do it Make it clear to Tong Keshu that Shen Su's obsession is his business, if he can't control his son, he will come to torment you, and you won't be afraid of being laughed at if you tell him!"

"Wen Lin, am I being too selfish?" Thinking of Shen Su losing his temper in anger before, I feel very sad.

"In the world of love, accidental injury is inevitable. You don't have to feel guilty. Besides, Shen Su can't convince his mother. Do you want you to keep being angry? Tourmaline, I have always stood by your side. I never think that Shen Su He is a good candidate, even if he ran away because of you, being moved is one thing, but the fact is another, it is right for you to turn back as soon as possible."

"Why so sure?"

She smiled and said: "Maybe it's really a bystander. When I saw you together before, I always felt that you suppressed yourself very hard. The you in Shen Su's eyes is not the real you. The He Bixi I know has a lot of small problems. He is self-willed. Impulsive, arrogant and unreasonable when you lose your temper, I don't think Shen Su thinks so, you are probably perfect in his eyes!"

After encountering all the previous things, these words only had a sense of irony. I listened silently, without the desire to answer.What she said is right, but I have never faced this point squarely. I take it for granted that mutual accommodation is the only way for two people to stay together.Zhou Nuoyan and I just don't want to accommodate each other, so we quarrel when we meet, and we end up breaking up when we don't quarrel.

Fang Wenlin seemed to be able to read my mind, and said: "It's true to accommodate and tolerate each other, but it's just been like this for a long time, don't you feel tired?"

I was about to speak when I heard another bell ring beside me.Dazed for a moment, he opened Zhou Nuoyan's travel bag and took out his phone to look at it. Jiang En'ai's name was displayed on the screen.

After hesitating for about 30 seconds, I finally couldn't help but press the answer button. Before I could say anything, Jiang Enai's urgent voice hit my ears: "Zhou Nuoyan, what's the matter with you? You have called you so many times. I didn’t answer, I sent you ten text messages and you replied to one! Where are you now? Guo Yi said that you fainted after the operation in the morning, and you are not at home to take a good rest and you are still running around. Are you desperate? "

She babbled again, but I didn't listen to half a sentence, and my mind stubbornly stayed on a certain point, refusing to move, and when she finished venting, I asked in a nasty way: "Is Nuoyan not in good health? he is sick?"

"..." Jiang Enai was obviously stunned, and said uncertainly, "He Bixi?"

"It's me, Nuoyan is with me. You just said that he passed out after the operation, how could this be?"

"Miss He, this is Nuoyan's mobile phone, please let me talk to him."

"He's not with me," I could see her sullen look, "you haven't answered me yet."

Without further ado, she cut off the thread.

I was stunned, picked up my mobile phone, and found that Wen Lin was still waiting for me, so I hurriedly said: "Let's talk later, I have something to do now."

"What happened?"

I was about to hang up, but suddenly I had a thought and asked, "When did you tell him about me? What did he say then?"

"Just this morning, I couldn't find you everywhere after I got up, and you didn't answer when I called your mobile phone. I really had no choice but to call him, but I called him several times, but he didn't answer. I'm coming back."

"How did he say?"

"Ah? No, I told him about the record of you and Tong Keshu's several confrontations, and then I said that you packed up your bed and disappeared."

I was not in the mood to joke with her at this moment, so I was anxious to ask: "Then what next? How can he answer you?"

"He said he was coming." Fang Wenlin said in an envious tone, "Tourma, it will take at least three and a half hours to fly here from City B. Don't you have any idea if you are running back and forth for you recklessly?"

My only thought at the moment was to see him right away.He ran into the banquet hall and browsed all the people at every table, but he didn't see Zhou Nuoyan.My heart was pounding like something bad was about to happen.Someone patted me on the shoulder from behind, and I turned around happily, but it was not a promise.

"Old Ban." I called her with a dull face. At this moment, I was only thinking about Zhou's promise, and no one was mediocre.

Lao Ban frowned and stared at me, and said, "Are you looking for that person just now?"

My eyes lit up, and I grabbed her arm, "Yes, where is the other person? Where is it?"

"Let's go," Lao Ban took great care of his hands, and hurriedly broke free from my clutches, "Is he really your guardian? I can't think of him being so young. If I didn't know that you and Shen Su are a couple, I would have thought he was your boyfriend. Woolen cloth."

"He...where did he go?"

"It's not because of your degree certificate. That person is really amazing. You didn't see that the heads of the Academic Affairs Office were all turned green and white by his understatement, and the principal was sweating. Who wouldn't Knowing that the Academic Affairs Office dared to deduct your certificate casually was ordered by his old man."

"What about Tong Keshu?"

"Her? I didn't see it. Her family seems to have left the meeting early."

I didn't feel the slightest joy in my heart, except that I was still worried, "Did Zhou Nuoyan go to school?"

"It should be. The people from the Academic Affairs Office left with him."

Seeing that I was out of my mind, the old class let me go after talking for a while.Sitting on the public sofa in the lobby, facing the continuous flow of vehicles at the door, I thought about something.

"Tourmaline—"

In the middle of falling asleep, someone pinched my cheek gently, and opened my eyes in a daze. After seeing the person in front of me, I suddenly woke up, and I was so happy that I couldn't control myself.

Zhou Nuoyan's complexion was not very good, and there was a deep sense of tiredness between his brows.Sit next to me, handed me a big leather envelope, and said, "You have won the provincial scholarship, congratulations."

I held the envelope in my hand, hesitating what to say, but when I heard him calling me, I hurriedly responded: "Ah?"

He raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and motioned to me: "It's very late, why don't you go back to your room to sleep?"

I bit my lip and looked at him: "...waiting for you."

He seemed to think of something, and quickly explained to me: "It's a last resort to do that in the evening, don't mind."

I was stunned for a moment, and only then did I understand what he meant, and asked angrily, "What is forced? How can I not mind?"

He looked at me and said in a calm tone, "There's no point in procrastinating, unless you don't want to leave him."

It took me a lot of effort to hold back, and I tried to calmly say: "That means you did that just to make Shen Su completely give up on me, so that you can negotiate with Tong Keshu, there is no special meaning?"

"What do you mean?" He actually asked me back.

I lowered my eyebrows, unwilling to face his probing gaze, "It's nothing, just ask." Although I pretended not to care, feelings of frustration and disappointment welled up in my heart.

He added: "The reason why I didn't communicate with you beforehand is because I don't want to hear your objections."

I couldn't help but raise the corners of my lips. This man knows me very well, and he guessed that I would object early on.His calm and composed appearance made me feel that my blushing and heartbeat a few hours ago was completely unnecessary. From the beginning, he was just acting for Shen Su, and his acting skills were comparable to Oscar winners.Thinking of this, he sneered undisguisedly.

Zhou Nuoyan frowned, and said tiredly: "Okay, go back to sleep first, if you still can't let go tomorrow, you can quarrel with me at any time, and I will accompany you."

I stood up and gave him a hard look.When he reached the entrance of the corridor, he didn't hear any movement behind him, so he secretly turned his head to look at him, only to see him sinking into the soft sofa, with his head leaned back, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was closing his eyes and resting his mind.My heart softened, I walked back lightly, stood in front of him and looked at him quietly.At this moment, Zhou Nuoyan lacked the arrogance and domineering vigor of the past, his face was bloodless, and there was a faint trace of bluish white, which set off the original faint shadow under the eyelashes and became more and more obvious.

After standing for a while, he sensed something and opened his eyes to look at me. His deep and dark pupils seemed to look into my soul for a moment. "Why don't you go to sleep?" He paused, a little out of breath, "It's because of Shen Su?"

"Why don't you go back to your room?" His hand kept pressing on his stomach, and I knew this man was struggling.In fact, I should have thought earlier that he seldom voluntarily retreats when facing me tit for tat.

He stared at me and said nothing.

I pulled him with my hand, and he stood up helplessly along with me and said, "What exactly do you want?"

"I still want to ask you what you want!"

He looked at me silently, and then said softly, "Tourma, I'm tired."

I was taken aback, and said nah na: "then you go back to sleep."

He stood there, looking at me fixedly, his deep eyes were burning with a faint heat.My heart was beating so fast that I couldn't breathe, so I could only turn around in a panic, and escaped out of his sight.

Tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep.Turning on the TV, a certain channel was rebroadcasting a series of documentaries. I was attracted by one of the scenes, and my heart was surging for a while, which was hard to calm down.Thinking of what Zhou Nuoyan didn't say just now, he was even more depressed, so he simply picked up the phone in the room and dialed it through the internal line.

After waiting for a while, he didn't come to answer.I hung up the phone in disgust, tilted my head and began to think wildly, I'm sure he must not be asleep now, maybe he is talking to Jiang En'ai.But I'm not reconciled, I finally mustered up the energy to confess my love to others, how can I die before I finish my career?Pick up the phone and call again, again and again, persistently.

On the sixth call, he picked it up as soon as it rang.

"Zhou Nuoyan, shut up and listen to me." I heard his breathing, and without giving him any chance to speak, I continued, "Today I was supposed to leave here on the 03:30 pm flight, if that flight If the plane crashes, we may be separated from each other forever. Although such a hypothesis is a bit ridiculous, no one knows what will happen next moment, and no one knows."

Zhou Nuo made it clear: "Have you seen the documentary about the plane crash in the past ten years? I watched it too."

"Yes, I saw it, so I have some feelings."

"Me too." He said quietly.

I suddenly felt aggrieved, he watched such a sensational thing, but he was indifferent, even he was talking on the phone with another woman. "Do you have anything to say to me?"

He was silent for a while, and said: "I planned to separate you and Shen Su, but there are many ways, and I chose the worst one."

"Anymore?"

"I want you to come back to me."

Tears welled up in my eyes, "You never said you liked me."

After waiting for a long time, I was almost desperate, and then I heard him say slowly: "Tourma, I don't like you, I want to love you."

My tears flowed more happily, but the man continued, "But I'm still not sure, if I love you, will I end up hurting you instead."

I can't understand the meaning of these words, but I am already very satisfied, and I don't even want to pursue his deep meaning. "Have you ever tried to love me? Since when?"

"I don't remember, maybe it was four years ago, maybe earlier." His voice was a little weak, as if he was lying on his body, "but I didn't try."

I sat in the middle of the bed with my knees hugged, and the cowhide envelope was quietly lying beside me. I stretched out my hand to cover it, as if I could gain some kind of strength from it, "Then, do you want to try it?"

I know I speak softly, but also clearly.The waiting process was extremely difficult, and even if it was only a few minutes, it seemed to me that it became very long.

"Okay, but can you come here first?"

I asked confusedly, "Why?"

"My medicine fell under the bed, please help me find it."

I burst into laughter and slipped out of bed.
