I met you, I fell in love

Chapter 19 Dawu, I love you more than I thought

On the way home, Wen Shi rested her cheeks on her hands and looked out at the night outside the car window, her preoccupied face was reflected in the glass.When she arrived, the driver yelled at her a few times before she realized it. Checkout jumped out of the car, gathered her coat, put her hands in her pockets, lowered her head and stepped on pebbles towards the gate.

After clarifying with Li Mingkai, Chu Jingxi was the only one she needed to explain and face. However, so many things have happened recently, where do I start?

There was no bright light from the windows of the house. Unlike before, there was always an orange light waiting for her in the middle of the night. Today's apartment is so cold that it blends in with everything around it.

Deep, silent and cold.

Wen Shi took a deep breath, bit his lips and walked forward, step by step up the steps, recalling the scene when he first moved here bit by bit in his mind.The memories pieced together from fragmentary fragments are like a hot current slowly passing from the soles of the feet to the limbs, the fingers are no longer stiff, and when he takes out the keys from the bag, another person's shadow appears beside him.

There was a pause in opening the door, and his shoulders froze.

Staring fixedly at that figure until heat flowed from his eye sockets, before his emotions reached the critical point, Wen Shi bit his lips hard, kept awake, and slowly turned his head.

"You... um..."

His back hit the cold doorknob hard, the pain was covered by the hot lips, his chin was hooked by the frivolous fingertips, he was forced to stand on tiptoe, and raised his head to cater to this complex emotion deep kiss.

The bag fell to the ground with a "bang", and his hands turned to embrace the man in front of him. When he closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and tears slid down his cheeks.

Sensing Wen Shi's strangeness, Chu Jingxi stopped moving.In the darkness, the blood on his lips could not be seen, but his rapid and deep breathing could be heard.

"Are you wronged?" The hoarse voice broke the silence in the middle of the night.Pressing his forehead against hers, he asked repeatedly in a low voice, "Crying, do you feel wronged?"

Wen Shi shook his head violently, his throat was so choked that he couldn't speak, but he hugged Chu Jingxi tightly with both hands for fear that he would just turn around and leave.In the chest cavity, the heart was beating violently, and the thumping sound was clear and profound in the ears.

"Sorry." Chu Jingxi sighed, but couldn't bear it after all, the coldness in his eyes gradually faded away.

He waited at the door for a long time. Although the weather was not as cold as in winter, his feet were still numb after a few hours.

If you don't enter the house, you are afraid of seeing things and thinking about others.

Until seeing a taxi parked in front of the house, a familiar figure appeared in sight, Wen Shi lowered his head while walking while thinking about things, let him clearly feel the long-lost uneasiness, like falling into the deep sea and not being able to catch driftwood .

"I'm afraid, you went with him."

I have never seen Chu Jingxi show weakness. In his career, he will always be the man who rushes to the forefront meticulously, shouldering the responsibility on his shoulders, and pursing his lips to be clear in his heart.When it comes to love, he will speak the truth and argue, and he will soften his attitude to appease Wen Shi when he pouts his lips and starts to get angry.

Show weakness, fear.She thought he wouldn't have.

"Why should I go with him?" Wen Shi hugged Chu Jingxi tightly, rubbed his cheeks in his arms, his tone was as soft as a ball of cotton stuffed into Chu Jingxi's heart, "I have nothing to do with him, we It’s high school and college classmates.”

"Isn't it my first love? Is it not my liking?" Chu Jingxi pinched Wen Shi's neck slightly with his fingers, with a teasing tone, "Isn't it Bai Yueguang?"

He memorized the comments on the Internet word for word.A long time ago, when he was watching Wen Shi's Weibo, he found a piece of content that seemed to be nostalgic for the past. He tested her when he was flying a kite, but she didn't understand.These days, he was flipping through the short stories he had written on Wen Shi's Weibo again, and he couldn't help but speculate and guess. If a person wants to become fussy and small-minded, he must first have someone who is in his heart. Do his bottom line.

"You're excited, aren't you? Still white moonlight?"

The hand that was holding his strong waist turned to pinch his flesh, but this man usually does not exercise with fists and feet. This muscle, pinched hard, will not move, and it is she who hurts in the end.

"I'm going to make it clear to him that I don't like him anymore." Wen Shi sniffed and said slowly, "When I was young, liking someone was a very persistent thing, treat it like an exam Treat it with full marks. Later, so many things happened, and people grew up, and they gradually understood. Likes are not for forcing, they are always kept in the bottom of my heart, and the only one who suffers is myself, even the people around Follow carefully."

She rarely said these words, even Chi Yiran and Lin Weian might not really understand her thoughts.If she had resolutely walked to Hei on this road back then, the ending might not have been good.

She didn't ask Chu Jingxi how she knew about Li Mingkai, but after thinking about it, she immediately understood the reason for this man's attitude towards her all this time.

The process is not important, but if there is a misunderstanding, it must be explained clearly.

"Li Mingkai is here on a business trip. I'm going to see him off when he returns home today, not to go with him." Thinking about what Jiang Zhengnan might have said to Chu Jingxi, thinking about that person's rich enough imagination to write a novel, Wen Shi smiled bitterly, "Chu Jingxi, I want to be with you seriously, although...although I'm not sure if I have the courage to stay and work in the United States, but I never thought of leaving you."

The chest cavity seemed to be stuffed with something, and even though he couldn't breathe, he could hear the sudden rapid heartbeat.The human body's reaction always comes subconsciously faster than the movements of the hands. Chu Jingxi suppressed the surge of joy, and tried to calmly confirm: "What do you mean?"

"..."

Wen Shi frowned, and raised his head to look at him distressedly: "If you don't understand this nasty words, forget it. Don't think about me translating it in English for you."

She was not a sweet talker in the first place, if she hadn't wanted to coax Chu Jingxi at this time, she wouldn't have said it.

"Okay." Chu Jingxi answered her, followed her cheeks with drooping eyes, and finally his eyes fell on her lips, and couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed again, "I understand."

He could understand her liking for him.

In the middle of the night, at the door of the house, the young couple hugged each other, bowed their heads and whispered, and kissed each other from time to time, without thinking about entering the house or moving their steps, as if they could live a lifetime together like this.

"Ah Choo!" Wen Shi sneezed, rubbed his nose, and acted coquettishly with a nasal voice, "Let's go inside."

Xiao Biesheng's new marriage, coupled with the expression of heart after the misunderstanding was resolved, Chu Jingxi looked at Wen Shi at this moment with fiery sparks in his eyes.

He held Wen Shi's hand tightly as if he had changed into a different person, pushed the door open and pushed her against the wall.

Some things, even if you don't think about it, when the time comes, it will happen naturally.Wen Shi has been taught very strictly since she was a child. Mother Wen often taught her that girls should know how to protect and cherish themselves.At the end of the concept instillation, she has always insisted on staying until the wedding night for the first time. If the other party loves her, then she will definitely be able to accept this idea.

But today, she seemed to be hooked. When her back was pressed against the cold wall, the intertwining of heat and cold gradually made her lose her ability to think, and she couldn't use any strength in her body. the meaning of.

The time, place, and people seemed to be just right, and everything was so appropriate.

The clothes fell on the floor, and because of the cold, Wen Shi shivered and woke up immediately, his foggy eyes were full of shame and panic: "Chu...Chu Jingxi..."

"Huh?" Chu Jingxi stopped with difficulty and put his arm around Wen Shi.When she raised her head, she could still clearly see the crimson eyes and suppressed desire in his eyes.

"I... I'm afraid..." After finishing speaking, Wen Shi didn't dare to look at Chu Jingxi, closed his eyes tightly, and bit his lips as if he could get away with it.

I don't know how long it took before the warmth hit her shoulders, and a coat with the unique scent of Chu Jingxi's perfume was covered on her body, wrapping her bare skin and driving away the chill.

"I..." Wen Shi clenched the fingers hanging by his side, his eyelashes trembled, a little at a loss.

"Don't talk." With a hoarse voice, Chu Jingxi buried her head on Wen Shi's neck. Just now, the blood all over her body rushed to the top of her head in an instant. Before she had time to think clearly, she followed the most true thoughts in her heart.

It was him who was abrupt.

"sorry."

The scorching breath sprayed on his neck, and his apology was like a clear spring pouring into his fiery chest, which made his whole body relax.

"No need to apologize." Wen Shi's voice was very soft.She felt the warmth from Chu Jingxi's coat, and she didn't feel too shy to lift her head in front of her lover who was so close.

Isn't it difficult for people who fall in love to control their reason?But he was able to stop at a critical moment, which somewhat made her feel respected.

"I just don't think this place is suitable." Wen Shi added in a low voice, and immediately lowered his head after speaking, not daring to look at the person in front of him.

Chu Jingxi couldn't hear clearly, and said "um", and carefully looked at the crimson color on her ears by the light in the entrance. It took a long time to realize that the corners of her mouth curled up, and there was a hint of bewitchment in her hoarse voice.

"Say it again, what's inappropriate?"

Do you want to pretend you don't understand and play hooligan?
The original charming atmosphere was interrupted. Wen Shi puffed his cheeks and pushed Chu Jingxi away. After wrapping his clothes tightly with both hands, he raised his foot and stomped on his instep: "I tell you to get out of the way!"

After she finished speaking, she blushed and turned around and ran away, thumping, she could make such heavy footsteps without wearing shoes, which showed how hard she was.

Chu Jingxi, who was left behind, touched the bridge of his nose and smiled helplessly.

The physical feeling has not completely receded, I glanced at the wall clock on the wall, felt the temperature in the middle of the night, turned around as if I had made up my mind, and went into the bathroom to take a cold shower...

Half an hour later, when Chu Jingxi knocked on the door and came in, Wen Shi was sitting on the edge of the bed wiping her hair. He naturally walked up to take the towel and help her wipe it.

"Your hair seems to be growing again."

Wen Shi squinted his eyes, like a lazy cat, and leaned back limply on Chu Jingxi: "How long have you not seen me, and you can even tell that your hair has grown?"

"Of course." Chu Jingxi slowed down his movements, looked down at the woman beside him, "I can tell whether you have become thinner or fatter, and I haven't missed you for a single minute these days."

Wen Shi moved his toes, bit his lip and muttered in a low voice: "There is no shortage of sweet words."

Feeling the humidity of the hair with her fingertips, Chu Jingxi folded the towel and put it in the basket in the bathroom after feeling that it was almost the same.When he walked over again, Wen Shi patted the bed next to him and motioned him to sit on it.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I always feel that I have a lot to say, obviously it's more about worry and miss, but at the moment of meeting, I unconsciously want to explain Li Mingkai's matter.

After calming down, I realized that what I was most afraid of was misunderstanding and loss.

"It's actually a normal process, but it just takes a little longer than before."

After more than ten days of cross-examination and mental torment, Chu Jingxi spoke lightly, as if he was just invited to drink a cup of tea.The reason for this is that Wen Shi was worried. Now that it's all over, it's useless to say more. Isn't it enough for people to come out safely?

"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do for you."

Jiang Zhengnan, Chu's father, and Chu's mother could find someone to inquire about the news, but she was the only one who ran around the house like a headless chicken all day, guessing about Chu Jingxi's situation only by the little information given by others.

It was only at this time that Wen Shi felt that he was really a student. Apart from his studies, Wen Shi had no connections or abilities in the world.

"Silly, what can you do in that situation?" Chu Jingxi pinched Wen Shi's shoulder to calm her down, "It's all right, it's fine."

Wen Shi turned and threw himself into Chu Jingxi's arms, wrapping his arms around his waist as before, but this time, she clearly felt his body stiffen, and soon, she also understood why Chu Jingxi had such a reaction— —

"You've lost a lot of weight..."

I used to be able to touch my abdominal muscles with my hands, and I joked that he is a typical example of wearing clothes to look thin, and undressing with flesh, but now it is good, where the hands touch, there are no hard muscles, but bones can be touched.

"It's okay, just treat it as losing weight. Didn't you pinch the flesh on my belly a while ago and say I'm fat?"

"That's much better than it is now." Wen Shi raised his head and looked at Chu Jingxi with puffed cheeks, "Tell me honestly, during the period of investigation, were you really not abused? Did they torture you?" ? Or did they not give you food? Or, they tortured you?"

"Have you watched too many TV dramas?" Chu Jingxi pushed Wen Shi's forehead away with his fingertips, and Chu Jingxi looked at her helplessly, "No one can compare to your imagination."

"If you don't tell me, I can only guess..."

"Think what you think."

"Huh?" Wen Shi froze, unable to hear the sudden confession clearly.

Chu Jingxi repeated it again, and Wen Shi's ears turned red.He didn't lie, under the circumstances of being physically and mentally tortured and tested, it was indeed the picture of being with Wen Shi and the photo in his wallet that accompanied him through these days.

There is no exaggeration, no matter what you experience, even a little anxiety and pain, the power that a lover can give cannot be underestimated.

just compared to this...

Chu Jingxi had other questions to ask: "Aren't you going to tell me about what happened between you and your ex?"

Wen Shi: "..."

Stiffed his neck violently, ex?Can't talk about it.

"What? Is there any more love left?"

"What nonsense!" Wen Shi pinched Chu Jingxi's thigh, and she sat up straight with a serious expression, "I just want to defend myself, he is not my ex, and neither of us have had boyfriend or girlfriend relation."

Hearing these words, a light flashed in Chu Jingxi's eyes.Wen Shi, who noticed his eyes, couldn't help complaining in his heart about being a cheapskate...

"You always thought we were boyfriend and girlfriend? By the way, how did you know Li Mingkai? That big mouth of Jiang Zhengnan told you?" When Jiang Zhengnan was mentioned, Wen Shi felt so angry that he slammed his fist on the quilt After a while, "Just that fool, I really, if it wasn't for your sake, I would have torn him apart."

Chu Jingxi: "..."

Shredded a bit too much, right?
Wen Shi recounted the whole story to Chu Jingxi, without embellishing it, nor deliberately satirizing Jiang Zhengnan, but emphasized that this person basically doesn't like to listen to explanations, and the reasoning doesn't make sense.

Chu Jingxi suppressed a smile, and roughly restored the scene at that time in his mind.

"What are you doing with that expression? I'm not kidding you. If you dare to laugh out loud, see how I deal with you." It was obvious that she was framed and wronged, so she wanted Chu Jingxi to help her vent her anger.

But tell me, why does he have this expression?
While comforting Wen Shi, Chu Jingxi helped Jiang Zhengnan speak: "Ah Zheng is a bit impatient, especially in this matter, when he is not familiar with you, it is easy to misunderstand you if he doesn't know you."

"Misunderstanding?" Wen Shi stepped on the chair by the bed and slapped his hands on his knees, like that kind of bandit leader, "I'm not happy if you excuse Jiang Zhengnan like this. Li Mingkai came to the United States on a business trip. We haven’t seen each other for a few years before. It’s true that I liked him back then, but too many things happened later. In order to protect me from an accident, I didn’t have enough mental capacity and hid directly in the United States.”

She never expected that one day she would talk to Chu Jingxi about things related to Li Mingkai so calmly, without any strange emotions in her heart, neither concealing nor exaggerating, she thought, he should be able to understand that everyone had a little time when they were young. Sentimental, not to mention unforgettable, but it has been truly put into emotion and existed.

"He almost died..." Wen Shi said in a low voice, his expression darkened.

Seeing her like this, Chu Jingxi frowned, and hugged her tightly.

"I dare not face his family. I didn't even have the guts to send a message to say hello during Chinese New Year. I hid for such a long time, and he was sorry. So this time when Li Mingkai came to the United States, I mustered up the courage to go to the United States. When I met him, I just wanted to express my guilt over the years."

"He was trying to save you, wasn't he?"

"Ah."

Chu Jingxi rubbed Wen Shi's hair comfortingly: "If he treats you as a friend, it is a very righteous thing to stand up as a man when you are in danger. He saved you. This kindness, I'll pay it back later."

"Aren't you still jealous?"

"That's another aspect." Chu Jingxi lowered his head and pinched Wen Shi's face, "Honestly speaking, he really came to America just for business trip and to meet you by the way, instead of any other purpose?"

other purposes?

Wen Shi blinked and pretended to be innocent: "Does confession count?"

Chu Jingxi: "..."

He knows it!Things are not that simple!
From the standpoint and angle of a mature man, even if he has only seen the photos, he can see the emotion in Wen Shi's eyes, which cannot be concealed by gestures.

"Would you have agreed without me?"

"This one……"

He still hesitated!
Chu Jingxi let go of her hand, stood up and looked at Wen condescendingly, and began to explain some truths to her in a serious manner: "Wency, there are not many reunited loves in this world, they are all deceptive in TV dramas. And , The relationship you have built up from the grace of saving your life will not be strong, you can't have any expectations or thoughts about this, you can't."

At first Wen Shi wanted to hold back his laughter, but later on he really couldn't bear it, especially when these words came from Chu Jingxi's mouth, all in English...

"Why do I have the feeling of listening to New Concept English?"

"Wen Shi, I'm telling you something serious."

Being called, Wen Shi quickly sat up straight, raised his hand and stood up with three fingers: "I promise I listened carefully to what you said, and I have to explain, I never thought about reuniting after a long absence, let alone saving me because of someone else." Dedicate your life to yourself. If you were not together before, even time can't force it, this is love."

"So, you won't regret it?"

Chu Jingxi thinks that he hasn't spent enough time getting along with Li Mingkai for a few years, so he can't fully grasp Wen Shi's inner thoughts.So at this time, when he asked such a question, there was a trace of uncertainty and uneasiness in his voice.

Fortunately, Wen Shi didn't notice it, and just held his finger instead and played with it: "What are you regretting? There is no word 'regret' in my life dictionary, but you, will you fight for me?"

Chu Jingxi narrowed his eyes to look at her.

Wen Shi stretched out his hand and grabbed his collar and yanked it twice: "It's just your little one who blocked me at the door of the house, saying that I would give you a cuckold and that I have a bad style. In short, you have educated me from the inside out. After seeing me once, that look wanted to kill me once."

"Jiang Zhengnan?"

"There's a second person?" Wen Shi couldn't bear Chu Jingxi's pretending to be stupid the most, and he clearly said it just now, but the topic was changed directly.She wanted to see how someone would change the subject this time.

Chu Jingxi rubbed the bridge of his nose, remembering Jiang Zhengnan's words at the gate of the General Administration that day.Mr. Jiang has seen too many scheming women in this circle, it's not a bad thing to be defensive, it's just that the words are a bit harsh.

"Well, I'll help you clean him up."

Responding to this sentence is not casual and perfunctory, Mr. Jiang who others dare not touch, Chu Jingxi has a hundred ways to trick him, and this is the power of being small.

The next night, Jiang Zhengnan, the protagonist of the incident, came to the door to apologize in person with a fruit basket, touched his forehead, and said he was sorry.

Wen Shi stood beside Chu Jingxi with his arms folded, deliberately pretending not to hear, put his hand behind his ear and asked, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

Jiang Zhengnan, Young Master Jiang blushed, suppressed the tenacity in his heart under Chu Jingxi's warning gaze, and repeated his sorry.

Chu Jingxi reminded: "Call me sister-in-law."

"I'm older than her!"

Jiang Zhengnan counterattacked awkwardly, asking him to call a college student who hasn't graduated yet sister-in-law?How is this possible? If it gets out, how can you show off your strength in the circle?
"But I'm older than you, and she belongs to me." Chu Jingxi reasoned with Jiang Zhengnan unequivocally, "It's polite to call sister-in-law."

Wen Shi secretly counted Chu Jingxi's thumbs up in his heart, it can be said that he was very pleased with the cheap money this time.

It's just that Jiang Zhengnan has a stubborn temper, and he had some troubles with Wen Shi before, so he came to apologize today because of Chu Jingxi's face, and he still can't adapt to calling his sister-in-law in a short time.

But not long afterward, when Chu Jingxi and Wen Shi returned to China, when a group of people were gathering at the cash drawer, Wen Shi was accosted by a strange man, and when Jiang Zhengnan stepped forward to help her out in time, he said "my little sister-in-law", that was not acting .

However, that's all for later.

All in all, the turmoil that was expected to be huge and uproar has subsided like this. No one mentioned Li Mingkai's matter anymore, and no one still brooded about the past.To get to this point in the relationship, what is needed is trust and understanding of each other. Even Yu Huizhu later secretly told Wen Shi that in fact, during that time, she really broke into a cold sweat for their little couple.I can feel that there is a problem in the relationship between the two, but for what reason and what the result will be, I dare not ask a word.

At that time, Wen Shi held Chu Jingxi's hand, bowed his head and smiled sheepishly.
