The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 90

Their conversation successfully made Ji Zhandong disappear from Huo Xiyin again for a while.When she left with Jiang Xing that day, she saw Ji Zhandong again at the parking lot. Lu Huayi held his arm, and Ji Zhandong remained expressionless.

But in the end it was inevitable to meet.

Mother Ji called again one weekend: "Are you going to be on duty tomorrow, or are you going to attend someone else's wedding, or are you going to oversleep? If not, then come and see me."

Huo Xiyin had nothing to say.Although she prepared a reason before answering the phone, it was a nonsensical but effective one: Dysmenorrhea.

And Mother Ji then added: "Don't feel embarrassed, Zhan Dong won't be back this weekend."

When she said this, Huo Xiyin couldn't refuse anymore.

In fact, even after she lost that little relationship with Ji Zhandong, Ji's mother still treated her kindly.After she was discharged from the hospital, Ji's mother sent people to send many things over, almost covering all the expenses for food and clothing.Even when she was traveling, she never forgot to buy her a gift by the way.

Huo Xiyin was ashamed of accepting it, but he didn't deserve it.Every time I see a gift, I will be horrified.

Huo Xiyin prepared gifts and drove to Ji's house alone in the early morning.This was the first time she had driven on the expressway alone, but roads were being repaired everywhere, and the traffic jam on the expressway was serious, causing more obstacles for her for no reason.Huo Xiyin regretted it in her heart, but had to bite the bullet and move forward.It took her all morning to drive less than [-] kilometers.

It's early winter, but the flowers in the house are blooming very well.As expected, Ji Zhandong was not at home, and there were only three of them at lunch.Mother Ji, as before, patted her arm, looked carefully at the car she bought, and said: "I bought the car, but I didn't come to see me. This car looks pretty good, bright red, girl That's the kind of car you should buy. How about the safety?"

Horch laughed: "I bought this car because it is safe and more comfortable to drive."

She accompanied Mother Ji to arrange flowers, a very silent activity.Huo Xiyin hesitated for a moment, and carefully organized his wording and tone: "Are you in good health recently?" Seeing Ji's mother's surprised eyes, he explained, "I saw some prescription drugs on the coffee table."

"You are really careful." Ji's mother said with emotion, "I went for a physical examination a while ago and found some inflammation. It's nothing serious. When people are old, it's okay to be a little sick. But you, you should also pay attention to your body. Don't think that being healthy means being young The attached rights will eventually be returned when the time comes."

"Yes."

"Don't put this white flower here, it will stand alone, it's still white, it's too desolate." Mother Ji adjusted its position, and said, "Actually, it's the same with you, you don't have to carry everything alone. Others can relax, I can’t see your pain and hard work, so it’s okay if you don’t understand, and sometimes you even complain. I believe you have experienced the feeling of knocking out teeth and swallowing blood. It’s not very comfortable. A kind of bravery."

Huo Xiyin raised her eyebrows and said, "You're right."

When she arrived at Ji's house at noon, the sun was still shining, but in the afternoon, dark clouds gradually brewed.Huo Xiyin went downstairs to the living room with the flowers in her hand. As soon as she put them on the balcony, she heard a knock on the door. She turned her head and felt a little dumbfounded when she saw the person coming.

Ji Zhandong held the car keys in one hand and a bag in the other, and when he saw her, he obviously froze for a moment.The two looked at each other, but no one spoke for a moment.

Until a doubt came over: "Why are you here today?"

"I went to the neighboring city to do some errands, so I brought the medicine along the way." Ji Zhandong put the bag on the coffee table, "I have something to go later."

"What's the rush?" Mother Ji said, "If you come here when you have time, don't you have time to sit for a while? There are so many things to be anxious about."

Ji Zhandong had no choice but to sit down.

Huo Xiyin was rather surprised at her composure.She walked to the sofa farthest from him and sat down, her movements were surprisingly natural.Now she found that it was not so difficult to reply to Ji Zhandong with a smile.

But they all kept silent in front of Mother Ji.In the end, Ji's mother felt a little uncomfortable.He hastily explained a few words and was about to leave, before he left, he blocked Huo Xiyin who wanted to follow without a trace.

What followed was the silence of the two of them again.

Huo Xiyin was a little on pins and needles.In fact, their scenes have been repeated too many times, from two years ago until now, and sometimes they even sit together for a whole morning without saying anything.

Ji Zhandong's brows were indifferent, and there was a distant smile on the corner of his lips, a standard diplomatic expression.Huo Xiyin and Ji's mother's two potted flower arrangements were absorbed by him. Huo Xiyin felt that he was deliberately creating a stuffy atmosphere, but she was not afraid of him.

"Did you drive here by yourself?" Ji Zhandong finally spoke after a while, seeing that she didn't respond, he continued nonchalantly, "And it's the highway? Roads are being built everywhere recently, and it might snow today, It's not very safe if you drive alone."

"There is always a first time for everything." Huo Xiyin said lightly.

Ji Zhandong smiled and said nothing.

Huo Xiyin left Ji's house on the grounds that the weather was gloomy and might snow, but he still couldn't breathe a sigh of relief.From the gate of Ji's house to the expressway, her car has been passively keeping a close distance from Ji Zhandong, always one in front and one behind.

After getting on the highway, a little bit of snow began to knock on the window.Huo Xiyin glanced at the rearview mirror. She had obviously reduced the speed of the car to the minimum speed limit, but Ji Zhandong did not overtake.He did it on purpose.

Huo Xiyin speeded up expressionlessly. She tried her best to rush left and right, but the result was still not far away as expected.She doesn't have as good driving skills as him, and she doesn't dare to overtake cars too blatantly. If an old hand like Ji Zhandong wants to follow her, it is as easy as it wants.

His luxurious black car drove quietly behind her, seemingly not too fast, not too close, but not too far away from her sight.As the road became more and more slippery, Huo Xiyin finally gave up the idea of ​​getting rid of it, and drove at a leisurely pace alone.

But that didn't last long.Due to road construction, half of the roads were closed to traffic, and there were too many cars. Huo Xiyin drove very cautiously, but still encountered a dangerous situation.A car barely brushed her rearview mirror while overtaking, and she gasped.Fortunately, the braking performance of this car was good enough, and her reaction was timely enough. After all, the two cars avoided the past without any danger.

The sky began to darken, and his car had been following her car closely for some time. Huo Xiyin could see his familiar streamlined body in the rearview mirror, and there were cars passing by all around, but Ji Zhandong was always behind her.

Huo Xiyin sighed quietly while sitting in the car.

Then she encountered a serious traffic jam.A tall and burly truck was damnably lying across the middle of the road, leaving only a narrow width less than the width of a car on the left and right, and the truck driver had long since disappeared.

Huo Xiyin propped up her chin and watched the car in front barely brushing the edge of the road, feeling a bit in a dilemma.

There was a long motorcade behind her, but she also doubted her driving skills, which made her extremely dizzy and anxious.

Soon, she heard someone knocking on her car window.

Huo Xiyin closed the car window, and the wind was strong, and snowflakes fell on his face immediately.She looked at him blankly.

Ji Zhandong slightly bent down to look at her, his eyes deepened in the dark evening, and he said flatly, "I'll help you drive the car over there."

Huo Xiyin stared at his face without moving. "Do you think I have a special sense of accomplishment if I can't drive it?"

"You must think of me as bad?" Ji Zhandong gritted his teeth, but in the end he smiled, his peach blossom eyes were sharply aimed at her, and his tone was flat, "There are so many cars behind, are you sure you want to drive in such a car?" Do you want to argue with me?"

Huo Xiyin finally got out of the car.She admitted that she was narrow-minded just now, but now that she looks at him, she can't help but want to turn against him.

In fact, they have always had a tacit understanding in this kind of public places in the past.No matter how unreasonable the other party's request is, it is generally not easily denied.At that time, each other's face issues were taken care of very well, but now they are separated without any scruples.

"Do you need me to get out of the car and look ahead?"

Ji Zhandong looked at her, expressionless: "No need. Just sit in the passenger seat."

He was obviously stimulated by what she just said.Huo Xiyin was speechless, why didn't she realize that his self-esteem was so strong before, that it could be shattered with the slightest touch.

The snow was getting bigger and bigger, and the road was getting slippery. When Ji Zhandong got into the car, he felt the coolness of the evening and early winter.Ji Zhandong seems to always have a good posture, good looks and good looks, and his driving movements are beautiful and neat, with a little carelessness, which makes Huo Xiyin feel like he hasn't seen him for a long time.

When the car drove past slowly, he said casually: "I'll overtake you later, I'll drive slower, you follow me."

Huo Xiyin was taken aback: "I'm not so incapable of taking care of myself, am I?"

He remained silent for a while, and said, "My right eyelid has been twitching all the time today, and I always feel uneasy."

Huo Xiyin snorted: "That's because you didn't rest, okay? Ji Zhandong, when did you become so superstitious?"

"But you have to admit that now is not the time to be brave. It's such a bad weather and it's evening. You haven't driven a few times on the highway, have you?"

"If you really care about my safety, please stop following me."

Ji Zhandong said something in a low voice, but Huo Xiyin didn't hear clearly, but he could guess that it was pretty close.

"What are you talking about? Don't you just say that you are kind enough to be a donkey's liver and lungs, or even more vicious, saying that I don't know what to do. Don't you dare to whisper it out?"

He turned his head to see her frowning expression, moved his lips, didn't speak, then turned his head back, and said slowly after a while: "...I won't argue with you."

"..."

There was silence in the car for a while.Ji Zhandong gently caressed his chin with one hand, tilted his head slightly, supported the steering wheel with the other hand, tapped rhythmically with his slender fingers, his joints and bones were beautiful, his nails were round and full, his eyebrows and eyes were calm and focused, but his posture seemed a little lazy .

In fact, Ji Zhandong's body has always had a unique and light perfume smell, very light, if you are not close enough, you won't notice it at all.In the past, when she was held tightly in his arms, she could often smell it.But now that they were in a small space, his clothes were slightly wet, and that faint smell began to permeate faintly, elegantly, as if there was nothing there, but it could easily bring back memories.

Like his whole being.

Finally drove smoothly.Ji Zhandong stopped the car, pointed to the rearview mirror on the right and said to her: "When you drive just now, you are always used to driving to the left. If you are not sure about the width of the car body, try to look at the position of the road line in the side rearview mirror. It’s almost certain.”

"..."

"Don't look at me with such eyes, I just remind you." Ji Zhandong pushed open the car door, and the wind suddenly squeezed in. His voice was mixed with the wind, faintly, "You are not afraid of anything, I am afraid that you can do it anyway." Alright."

The snow outside was getting bigger and bigger, and the headlights were gradually turned on. As the overtaking and being overtaken, Huo Xiyin's face was constantly shone with light and shadow.She was not familiar with this kind of scene, and those lights made her feel a little scared.And Ji Zhandong's car was still behind her, closely following her at a short distance, and his car lights shot straight over in the rear mirror, so bright that Huo Xiyin was also a little distracted.

Huo Xiyin's mind wandered a little bit, her heart was like some unripe lemons with bitterness, but at the same time, there was a strange feeling.

There was a bend ahead, Huo Xiyin frowned, distracted for a moment, just for a moment.Suddenly there was a car approaching on the right, Huo Xiyin turned the steering wheel reflexively, but then saw another truck approaching fast in the passing lane on the left.

It was too late to hide completely, Huo Xiyin's pupils suddenly widened, and he had predicted the worst in an instant.She slammed on the brakes, and the speed of the car next to her slowed down together with her. However, the road was too slippery and the sky was too dark. Huo Xiyin's heart twitched, and then she only saw her own lights mixed with the other car's, Tangled into a mess.

It happened so suddenly, at the moment when the car accident happened, Huo Xiyin's mind went blank.

She heard sharp scratches against the car body, dull crashes, and various horns.She was thrown out abruptly, and was pulled back to the seat heavily by the seat belt. When the pain clearly penetrated all limbs and bones, her consciousness was still a little clear.

Her chest was out of breath, and Huo Xiyin wanted to scream, but found that she had no strength at all.She couldn't move either, it was like needle pricks all over the place, and there was fine pain, and she couldn't even lift one of her arms.

She struggled to lift the other hand, but felt the viscous liquid, and she found it difficult to even breathe.

Such a short time was clearly magnified countless times by her.She braced her consciousness and felt that someone had finally opened the car door. Huo Xiyin tried to open her eyes, and saw a familiar figure as she wished. Before she could see his face and expression clearly, she felt her mind and mind relaxed, softly, Lost all consciousness.
