elopement alone

An Jing held the phone in his right hand, pressed the unlock button, the screen was on, except for the time displayed in Arabic, it was empty.

Press the unlock button again, and the screen turns off instantly.

There is a computer in front of me, the time is in the lower right corner, the browser page is still the home page, the big logo of the search engine is stuck in the center of the monitor, and the quiet eyes still drift to the mobile phone on the right side of the mouse from time to time.

The voice in my heart said to myself, call Chen Ningshu, it's too unsafe to be alone at such a late hour.

Another voice said, wouldn't you be responsible for your own actions at such an adult? What are you worrying about? It's not you who are wrong.

The voice immediately countered: You are right to be quiet!Oh who was wrong when you cheated before!

The other one is not to be outdone: Knowing the mistakes can make things better. Besides, what I'm talking about now is whether to call Chen Ningshu.

very noisy!

An Jing closed the lid of the laptop, flung her face to the back cover, and let her hair fall to the desktop.

So should I call Chen Ningshu?

A light suddenly came from the right, Jing Jing immediately grabbed the phone, isn't it, he turned out to be a liar, who is so immoral to send a fraudulent message at 10:30 in the evening.

The text message interface displayed impressively: Dad, I was arrested in a fight, please give 8000 yuan to police officer Li Yong.

The card number is attached to the back of the text message.

Hit you on the head, my old lady is annoyed.

Quiet cursed, put the phone aside, and landed on the laptop with a "bang" sound.

The face moved from the left to the right, the hair blocked all the sight, the warm light from the desk lamp entered the field of vision through the thick black hair, the faint light and the hair that occasionally touched the eyelids made An Jing very disturbed.

The second hand in the black leather quartz watch keeps moving forward, and every step it takes reminds An Jing that the time flies, and the sound of ticking keeps reciprocating. After turning more than 60 times, An Jing finally made a decision——

Call Chen Ningshu!

Because the judgment of this decision took too long, the quiet hand stayed on the dial button for several seconds before pressing it.

"Beauty? Beauty?"

Chen Ningshu raised his head from the bar, and saw a boy with black-rimmed glasses calling her.

"what happened?"

"Seeing that you're drunk, it's not good to lie down in the bar like this. You'd better go home early, and be careful not to be 'picked up' by someone."

Only then did Chen Ningshu carefully look at the person in front of him.

Black and white plaid shirt, jeans, canvas shoes, black-rimmed glasses, and neat round inches, which can be regarded as the standard attire for college students.

"Thank you for reminding me, I'm going back."

"actually……"

"Ok?"

"I made a bet with my friend, because you have been sleeping and we can't see your face, so I woke you up to see if you look good..."

Chen Ningshu smiled, "It's okay, now that you've seen it, I'm going back too."

"Let's have a drink together if you don't mind?"

Chen Ningshu stared at him. Although he was still smiling, he didn't speak. The boy was obviously a little nervous being stared at by Chen Ningshu, and he didn't know how to put his hands down.

"No thanks."

The boy was a little disappointed when he heard these five words. The expression on his face betrayed what he was thinking. Chen Ningshu wanted to say something, but the phone rang inappropriately.

is quiet.

Chen Ningshu looked at the name composed of two Chinese characters on the screen of the mobile phone, feeling a little at a loss.

Accept, or, not accept?

The boy said again in a daze, "Aren't you answering the phone?"

Chen Ningshu did not respond to the boy's rude interference.

"Hey."

Swipe open the screen with your finger, Chen Ningshu said.

Chen Ningshu spoke first, but An Jing was interrupted instead, the initiative fell on the other party, and he didn't know what to say.

"Hello?" Quiet asked her tentatively.

"what's up?"

Chen Ningshu's voice was a little cold and quiet.

"What's up?"

When the other party asked for the second time, he heard clearly that the place where Chen Ningshu was located was very noisy, either a bar or a nightclub.

"Where are you?"

"bar."

"I'll pick you up."

"it is good."

When An Jing received Chen Ningshu, Chen Ningshu was already standing at the door.

"Is it cold?" An Jing brought a sweater and handed it to her.

Chen Ningshu didn't answer, but shook his head, "It's not cold."

The hand has been stretched out, the clothes are lying in the middle of the two, and the safe distance of one meter is a good indication that the two are in a situation like a cold war.

Quietly withdrew her arms, habitually opened the car door for Chen Ningshu, then went around to the rear of the car, walked to the door, and sat in.

It's actually not as embarrassing as I imagined.

The air-conditioning in the car was very strong, Chen Ningshu hugged his arm, and from the corner of his quiet eyes, he saw the movement on the right, and silently turned off the air-conditioning.

"It's okay, let's drive it." Chen Ningshu said.

"Are you hot?"

"Fortunately."

"Then turn it off, I'm cold."

Chen Ningshu didn't speak, and turned his head to the right, looking out the window.

Rows upon rows of shops are hung with colorful signboards, and the not-so-wide old street has a taste of time.

"That hot pot restaurant has been open for many years, right?" Chen Ningshu said.

Quietly nodded, and finally remembered that Chen Ningshu seemed invisible, "Yes."

"When I was young, I often went there to eat."

An Jing found a parking space and stabilized the car.

"Why go?"

"I seem to be a little hungry, passing by here, why not have some hot pot." An Jing smiled, but Chen Ningshu always felt that there was some helplessness in this smile.

"I'm just saying-"

"Just treat it as having something to eat with me."

After An Jing finished speaking, she walked into the hot pot restaurant. Chen Ningshu was still standing at the door, looking up at the signboard of this restaurant. Ten years later, it still hasn't changed.

An Jing was already sitting by the window when he entered.

He only ordered five or six dishes and one plate of meat for a meal. An Jing seemed to be "a little hungry", while Chen Ningshu was not hungry at all, because he had just drunk a lot of wine.

Because even these few dishes were not finished.

you've been drinking.

After drinking a little, you eat very little, aren't you a little hungry?

Yes, a little hungry, not very hungry.

Chen Ningshu nodded, noncommittal.

Now it's clean, I thought quietly.

"Is there something you're hiding from me?"

Chen Ningshu met Jing Jing's penetrating and clear eyes, and the look of hesitating to speak was completely taken into the eyes of the other party.

"This is the second time you have asked me."

Chen Ningshu picked up a piece of mutton from the boiling pot and put it into a bowl full of sesame oil.

"The second time?" An Jing tilted her head and asked her.

"Yeah. Don't you remember?"

"Then how did you answer me last time?"

Jing Jing answered quickly, and Chen Ningshu was momentarily speechless by the quick question-and-answer dialogue.

"There's nothing to hide from you, you're overthinking." Chen Ningshu smiled awkwardly, hoping An Jing didn't notice his facial expression.

It's a pity that although Jing Jing was eating, she raised her head at this time, and Chen Ningshu's little thoughts were clearly seen by Jing Jing.

Quietly smiled, "That's what I answered last time, this time there must be some fresh answers."

"Then what do you want to hear?" Chen Ningshu put his chopsticks across the bowl and asked her.

Quietly sighed, "I want to know what's wrong with you recently, you've been out of your wits about everything, haven't you noticed?"

"for example?"

"Go out with someone without notifying me, leave me alone in the parking lot, wait for you for more than half an hour, and don't answer how many calls you make."

"I had lunch at noon, and Xiao Jia asked you if you want to eat rice noodles together, but you still went together."

"I always forget to bring my keys and forget whether I have locked the door."

"I paid the phone bill three times in a row, and at night I still said that I should pay the phone bill."

The evidence was listed to the fourth item, and Chen Ningshu couldn't listen anymore.

"Maybe I've been busy recently."

"Where are you busy? Your menstrual period just left last week, and your work is also very leisurely. Your internship is also coming to an end."

The words of complaint came out of Jing Jing's mouth unhurriedly, which made people feel that she was indifferent.

But since you don't care, what are you accusing me of?

Your unhurriedness is just to dig a hole for me, and let me jump into it willingly.

Chen Ningshu thought to himself.

"You think too much."

The meal broke up unhappily, and the two went home together without saying anything.

Before going to bed, An Jing reached out to hug her as usual, but this time she missed it.

With a light flash, Chen Ningshu turned to sleep beside the bed.

Jing Jing persevered, moved forward, stretched out his hand again, and hit the air again.

Chen Ningshu whispered, "I'm sleepy."

"You...don't like me?"

The last few words were a little choked up, and she quietly opened her eyes wide, trying in vain to send tears back to her eyes.

"I have always liked you very much."

"Then why are you avoiding me?"

"How come, it's too late to like you."

Chen Ningshu hadn't finished speaking yet, An Jing had already overwhelmed her.

That makes me feel your love for me, okay?

The moment his lips touched Chen Ningshu, Chen Ningshu's mind went blank.

But the most firm idea in my heart gradually took shape, and the confusion and loss that accompanied me for a long time were swept away at this moment, replaced by unprecedented joy and relaxation.

What Si Yuchen, what Zhang Yan, what people say, what gossip, what are they compared with quietness?

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I will tell Si Yuchen that if I come out, I will come out. If I lose my peace, it will probably be the most regrettable thing I have ever done in my life.
