The more I said this, the shyer Xiaoye became, and she turned her face aside anxiously, and then said: "Oh, please stop talking, I am speechless to myself."
I continued to tease her: "Your face is so red, it's even red to the root of your neck."
"I...I..." Xiaoye hesitated, probably because she didn't want me to see her blushing. She suddenly took a breath and dived into the water, so naturally I quickly followed her.
What can I say, Xiao Ye looked like a little girl just now. I have basically never seen her like this before. If it was Zhao Hu or Xiao Zizi who teased Xiao Ye like this, I am afraid Xiao Ye would have made a fuss or cursed. But she didn't treat me like this, which made me even more convinced that Xiaoye must be interested in me.
I even thought narcissistically at this moment, if I tell Xiaoye now that I like her and then want to have a relationship with her, she probably won't reject me, right?
Even if it is a rejection, it should be a tactful rejection and leave me a big chance, right?
Xiaoye and I were like this, going up and down many times, like two fishes, swimming freely in the vast sea.
This kind of atmosphere and experience can really cultivate people's feelings. I had the urge to talk to her a few times, but in the end I endured it.
As for Xiaoye, I don’t know if she has this impulse, but I can feel it from her eyes. She seems to have a lot to say to me. Of course, based on my understanding of Xiaoye, she definitely doesn’t mean these words. Will tell.
At least she won't say it now.
A few days later, when our diving skills were perfected, our boat, supplies and crew were almost ready, which meant that we were ready to set off.
The boat we rented at that time was actually a fishing boat with a tonnage of more than 300 tons. It was already a large ocean-going fishing boat and could sail in larger seas for a long time.
The crew of this ship originally needed more than 30 people, but we are going to look for sunken ships and cultural relics. We don’t need too many crew members for fishing operations. We only need the captain, engineer, a few people to control the fishing boat, and the chef. and the person in charge of logistics, so apart from our team, there are only seven people in total including the captain and crew.
The seven of them are looking for someone who can understand Chinese so that they can communicate with us more easily.
The captain is an Asian, nicknamed Old Shark, and is fifty years old.
As for supplies and equipment, some are bought and some are rented. In order to hide their eyes from others, many shady equipment are hidden directly in the fish warehouse where the fish are stored, such as some sonar detectors, small underwater submersibles, and Some anti-piracy guns, etc., we also covered these things to prevent them from being exposed during inspection.
The day before the trip, Uncle Su also read the weather forecast at sea. The place we were going to was at the southwest end of the Andaman Sea, which is considered the northeastern part of the Indian Ocean. After confirming that there had been no major storms in the Andaman Sea in the past half month , we all felt much more relaxed.
However, Old Shark said that even if you encounter some larger waves occasionally, there is no need to worry. He said that when he was young, he sailed a ship with dozens of tons, and he could come back alive after encountering waves of more than ten levels. We are now The three hundred tons we rented are enough to cope with strong winds and waves, so don't worry too much.
In the afternoon before departure, Xiaoye was going back to Yangon to take a flight. Uncle Su originally wanted to see her off, but it happened that Old Shark discovered some problems on the ship, so Uncle Su followed him to the ship to understand the problem, so he had to let her go. Xiaoye and I came to see Xiaoye off.
But before leaving, Xiaoye said to the pigtails a little unhappy: "It's only more than a hundred kilometers in total, and it takes more than an hour to get to the airport. Just let Jianjun see me off by himself, so don't go."
Pigtail himself was very reluctant to let go of Xiao Ye. During the past two days when he was learning to dive, he was always depressed, but whenever he was with Xiao Ye, his eyes never moved away from Xiao Ye's body.
This is now the last journey. Xiaoye doesn't let him send it off, so he is naturally a little unwilling. He smiles bitterly and says to Xiaoye: "It's okay. I have nothing to do anyway. I'll send it off to you. Why don't we build an army for a while?" How boring it is when people come back from the airport.”
"I don't want you to follow me and affect my mood." Xiaoye didn't save any face for her pigtails, and she answered very simply and indifferently.
Zhao Hu also said at this time: "Don't follow me. Don't cause trouble. It's better to go diving with me. I think I can dive more than sixty meters freely."
Pigtail looked a little hesitant, and after Xiaoye made a few more complaints with a look of boredom on her face, Pigtail had no choice but to give up: "Okay, then please pay attention to safety on the way back."
"You don't need to worry." Xiaoye said this and went to get her luggage.
Later, when Xiao Ye and I took a taxi, Xiao Zizi stood at the intersection and watched us off for a long time.
"When you were fine, why didn't you try to persuade him?" Xiaoye said to me melancholy before the taxi drove for a long time.
I knew she was talking about pigtails, so I smiled and said, "Why didn't you persuade him? You see, we all persuaded him when you were here, and even more when you were away. But the problem is that it doesn't work. For example, Zhao Hu, after saying so many things about him, he still sticks to you when he should. There is really no other way, so we can’t beat him up, right?”
Xiaoye curled her lips: "I saw that Zhao Hu persuaded him a lot and told him a lot, but it seems that you didn't do much to persuade him. I think if you did, it should be more effective."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Why would my advice be more effective?"
Xiaoye said: "That's how I feel anyway. As long as you talk to him properly and express my true feelings, he should listen."
I said, "That's not necessarily true. He likes you now to the core of his bones, and it's beyond his control. Only if you find a partner or get married, will he change his attitude towards you."
After saying that, I comforted Xiaoye: "You don't have to change his attitude. Anyway, you have returned to Beijing and you will have less time to meet him in the future. And even if he keeps hanging around you, he won't If he does something to hurt you, just treat him as nothing."
"Then when you go to the Beijing coffee shop to find me, will he also go with you?" Xiaoye asked.
I said it should be.
"I don't want him to go." Xiao Ye said very unhappy.
What can I say, Xiaoye has expressed her dissatisfaction with Xiaoye before, but never like this. I thought about it carefully, Xiaoye has been treating Xiaoye in the same way as before, and she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary.
Why is Xiaoye so disgusted now?
I asked Xiaoye: "It seems that your dislike of him has increased to another level. Why? Did he say something to you behind your back? Or did he do something?"
Xiaoye shook her head: "That's not true."
"What's the reason for that?"
"I..." Xiaoye seemed a little embarrassed to speak.
After hesitating for a moment, he said: "I feel that having him in front of me affects my communication and interactions with others."
As soon as these words came out, my heart skipped a beat:
I'm not a fool. I can hear the implication of Xiao Ye's words. She seems to think that her pigtails affect the communication between her and me.
In the past, Xiaoye would not say such "suggestive" words. She always gave me the impression of being very cold. Although I have always gotten along well with her, she obviously has a way of locking her heart. the meaning of.
Why did she suddenly become proactive? As if he was taking the initiative to open his heart.
Could it be that she wanted to fall in love, but she saw that I was unwilling to take the initiative, so she became anxious and took the initiative?
At this time, I turned my face and glanced at Xiaoye, and found that her face was also blushing. Apparently she also understood that what she just said was a bit proactive.
Now that Xiao Ye is like this, I think I can't be too timid, so I tentatively asked: "Then can I ask you, are you mainly afraid that he will affect your communication with someone?"
