Chapter 6 Madman
The car started, and the engine, which was completely different from the low-key body, resounded provocatively at the end of the street.
Pei Zhi's gaze was withdrawn from the rearview mirror, and what finally existed in her eyes was the other party's tolerance and compromise.
She calmed down and felt sorry for Xu Bei: "Sorry, just now--"
"Your friend?" He looked ahead, his expression natural when he answered the conversation.
"Yeah, ex-boyfriend."
"Oh." Xu Bei chuckled, "It turns out that I refused it for him."
When Xu Bei confessed to her for the first time, Xie Xing had already taken the lead.
Pei Zhi clearly rejected him once, and she didn't want the relationship to become so subtle when the old thing was brought up again.
She is single now, and Xu Bei also wants to pursue her again. Pei Zhi, who was originally looking forward to a new life, was dominated by some nerve disturbance: "I don't think I'm suitable to have a new relationship now. I know you all care about me. But I'm quite confused. At least, I really don't have this plan in the near future."
"Well, don't feel sorry." His voice was gentle, "Then wait until you have plans."
Xu Bei has not changed, like any time before.
No matter what he said, he would hit the cotton with one punch and pushed it back in a daze.
Most people are the hardest to reject such people if they are soft or hard.
The car was very quiet, so quiet that Pei Zhi even started to review the scene where she had just said harsh words to Xie Xing.
Memories are scattered and abused, and the last time I quarreled so fiercely...
It was two years ago.
Pei Zhongnan went to another place to attend a cadre training meeting. During that time, she and Xie Xing naturally lived together.
There was something wrong with a photo of the competition during the day, and the next day it was the qualification review of the event. Pei Zhi agreed to send it again by email later.
At that time, she was leaning against the bar and sending an email. The wifi signal at home was sometimes strong and sometimes weak. For some reason, sometimes she had to shake to the door of the bedroom to connect.
When I arrived in the bedroom, there was always someone who was silly and looked at her face from nowhere. The jaw pressed against her shoulders and looked like a little beast. The hot breath sprinkled on the edge of her neck, and the warm words became the best fun word.
The work is never done in the end.
This time the same is true. As soon as the screen jumped out of the broken line and reconnected, Pei Zhi was used to the fact that she naturally took the laptop back to the room, sat cross-legged on the end of the bed, and tried to send it again.
When Xie Xing came out after taking a shower, she was still messing with emails. When she heard footsteps, she had no time to care about it. Her fingers squirted on the keyboard. There were several chat windows on the desktop, including those in charge, those in the photography association, and those in the magazine.
She was busy with what was happening in her hands, and felt a black shadow pressing down beside her, so she only raised her eyelids: "Stop making trouble, I'll go take a shower after I finish my work."
As soon as he finished speaking, the reply from the person in charge of the docking jumped out on the screen: [It's okay, no hurry. Miss Pei is so hard, don't you rest so late?]
Pei Zhi checked the email and switched back to the window: [It seems to have been sent, please take a look]
[Oh, OK. Actually, it doesn’t matter if you are later. We are willing to wait for Miss Pei. I will reply to you after checking the email.]
Pei Zhi typed: [Okay.]
[It has been confirmed that there is no problem this time. I am acquaintance who has worked so many times. I will have a meal next time I meet you. I just happened to talk about a photography exhibition in the second half of the year [Smile] Ms. Pei has such good business skills, maybe she can hold a solo exhibition directly]
Pei Zhi was about to reply, but she felt the shadow pressing against her side getting closer and closer. She couldn't help but stretch out a finger to press against the other person's chest: "I'm busy with work, why are you so clingy?"
"You're late at night..." His voice sounded a little cold, "Is it going to make an appointment with another man for dinner next time?"
"It's work." Pei Zhi emphasized.
"Can you guarantee that you will not talk about any private matters except work?"
Xie Xing raised his hand, but suddenly there was no need to know where the angry anger came from. He covered his palm on the screen and covered his notebook with a snap. "What if he took the opportunity to say that there is an exhibition to participate in next time, there is a competition to you next time, and there is a second and third meal?"
The last time I quarreled over a similar issue only two or three days passed.
He always had to care about what she had in the Photography Association, which was all trivial matters.
Sometimes it was an appointment from the Tourism Bureau, because a male leader looked at her more at the dinner party; sometimes it was an internal event of the association, and an old man who was several rounds older than her asked for the newly launched model.
And he was never present, but he was as clear as he was watching on the spot.
After the quarrel, there was always a lukewarm recovery period. I also wanted to ease the relationship, so Pei Zhi didn't refuse so much before moving with him. Unexpectedly, she created an opportunity for him to make trouble.
She tilted her head with a good temper and kissed the scar on the inside of his elbow, coaxing her, "Okay, there are so many thoughts in your mind. They are all very normal and legitimate working relationships."
"Normal? Right?"
The broken hair on the forehead was wet and the water naturally hanged, almost covering his eyelids.
Pei Zhi couldn't see the emotions in his eyes clearly, and only heard a tone similar to mocking sound in her ears: "Do you need to smile so well at them?"
She felt that this sounded strange, and she said it from his mouth as if she was deliberately laughing.
But there is no need to intensify the conflict because of this matter. She just frowned: "What?"
"Is that deputy editor-in-chief of the magazine single? I know it. He always comes to you if he has something to do, and you also have a lot of fun chatting with him. You even smiled at him, many times. Do you dare to say no?"
Making old accounts out of nothing is a sign of the storm that every storm is about to come.
Pei Zhi stood up straight and felt a sense of irritability. She wanted to straighten her back and confront her, but was pressed back to the place by the force of his shoulders. As the man's oppressive strength was hindering, she put away her joking tone and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you going crazy all of a sudden?"
"I'm crazy? You're having fun chatting with others, sometimes the deputy editor-in-chief, sometimes the person in charge. Why did you say I'm crazy after just saying a few words?" He said coldly, his eyes full of mockery: "Sister, are you tired of me, are you?"
"I'm just annoying you in any words? Xie Xing." She suddenly called his name and was silent for a moment.
After a long time, he spoke again, "Don't you think you are too polite to me? I think it's like... control. Do you understand? At first, I asked about my itinerary, and then my phone number, and now I even want to control my every word and action. Every day, everything is under your nose. Are you not enough? Don't you think it's over?"
"I didn't want to control you."
He took a deep breath, as if trying to restrain his restlessness, his fingers took off her shoulders and moved upwards along her neck little by little, and finally landed on the line of his jaw.
The fingertips rubbed over the jaw, and the force was not light. He grabbed the tip of his chin and lifted it up. His movements were even a bit rude, but his expression seemed to be treating an extremely precious treasure.
He sighed: "I just don't want you to talk to them too much. I want you to stay at home, I think you only have me in your eyes. Just be alone forever."
"This is unrealistic..." Pei Zhi softened her tone with the stinging pain, "Stop making trouble. I'll come with you right after the conversation, okay?"
The force of the jaw scratch suddenly increased, and he leaned forward and said, "So now, are you still thinking about talking about work first? No matter how close I get to you, I can only be behind those people?"
“…”
After arguing a few times, Pei Zhi knew that he would be unable to hold back his temper at this time. He would burst out at any time in the next second.
She made enough psychological preparations. But today, the other party was abnormal.
He lowered his head, stopped his horse on the edge of gloomy and restlessness, and gently rubbed her side face, as if the quarrel just now was a dream. The two were as close as before.
"Sister, can't you share all your time with me?"
"Xie Xing, be realistic." Pei Zhi repeated.
"But I'm different. I'm willing to spend all my time and energy on you. You can try it too. Just try it, it's fine."
He pressed his voice very low, as if telling a secret, and exploded in her ears in a low and gentle manner.
It seemed that it was raining heavily that night. The raindrops hit the floor-to-ceiling windows, which were sometimes fast and sometimes slow, like a sonata. She just guessed that it was raining, but she couldn't get up and take a look.
Xie Xing's exquisite and luxurious tie that he had shown her, lingered around her fingertips, to her wrists, and to her entire arm.
The other end is connected to him.
For the first time, she knew that the dead-button could be beaten so many tricks.
The price of escape is always hysterical. Before this, no one wanted to break up completely. She still had a little fantasy to try to communicate.
The result of communication is that he can always extract only the part he wants from her words, and easily put aside the part he doesn't want to listen to.
Often, she finished a paragraph as rationally as possible, and the other party just smiled at her and asked in a gentle tone: "Would you like to make your favorite salad for you that night?"
“…”
"Tuna, avocado, you still like smoked beef, right?"
Pei Zhi couldn't bear it anymore and her voice raised a little: "Xie Xing, can't you listen to me well?"
"Sister." He suddenly called out, his eyes falling on her hands: "I was wondering - should I change to something more reliable."
“…”
He is a lunatic.
The communication was fruitless, the blood circulation in his arms was not smooth and painful, and his end was obviously tighter, as if he couldn't feel the pain at all, and his eyebrows were not frowning more than half.
Pei Zhi gave up and talked to the madman again. Before he came up with a more unreasonable method, she decided to collide with him in the most extreme way.
At worst, it's life or death.
It was not until she stood on the windowsill that her slender body was wet in the night rain and was shaking. Finally, a trace of fear was captured in his eyes that Pei Zhi realized that her struggle had achieved results.
That day was the most quarrel, and both sides suffered losses.
Xie Xing looked pale and staggered all the way. Finally, he stood in the rain and asked her hoarsely: "Will you not come back if you leave?"
"I need to calm down." She gasped, but she didn't dare to stop her steps: "So too."
He suddenly laughed, and his laughter was shattered by the sound of rain.
"Sister, do you think I'm crazy? Are you afraid of me?"
“…”
The rain was covered with her face, and she pursed her lips, which were frozen white by the rain, and did not speak.
In the rain curtain, he smiled wildly: "Yes, I'm just a lunatic. I'm going to do it thousands of times, so do it."
The author has something to say: The meaning of the novel is nonsense.
In reality, when you meet a little mad dog, please turn around and run without saying a word. The faster you run, the better. Do you understand, do you sisters?
All the previous things were explained, and some other hidden lines did not affect reading, and they would be written down later.
The point is now and in the future_(:з」∠)_
