In the afternoon, it started to rain again.
It was almost seven o'clock in the evening when the township bus arrived in the city, and the bus station was dull and noisy on a rainy day. The smell of car exhaust is in the air, trapped in the air by the rain and difficult to dissipate.
People were coming and going in the station, and the ground was filled with black mud. The original appearance of the floor could no longer be seen clearly. Tang Mi was holding a paper bag in her hand, wrinkled her delicate nose, and walked cautiously into the station on tiptoes.
Jiang Minghao got off the bus and looked up at the sky. It was pitch black, and the autumn rain fell thinly. The cold air penetrated into his clothes from the moment his feet stepped on the wet ground.
It's so damn cold.
He put the black peaked cap he was holding on his head and walked out of the station. He walked very fast, lowering his head as he shuttled through the busy station, his ears filled with noisy and chaotic sounds.
"Jiang Minghao~"
Suddenly, he seemed to hear someone calling his name from behind. The voice was delicate and soft, very unreal yet somewhat familiar.
He paused, turned around and looked back. Tang Mi, wearing a white sweater and light-colored tight jeans, stood not far away and waved to him.
Between them were the hurried passers-by at the station.
Jiang Minghao frowned, not understanding why she appeared here.
When Tang Mi saw Jiang Minghao turn around again, she smiled and ran towards him. The station was crowded and she almost got hit several times. Jiang Minghao originally stood still, but after seeing her being hit for the third time, he couldn't help but strode towards her.
Seeing him walking towards her, Tang Mi smiled and called him, "Jiang Minghao."
Jiang Minghao didn't respond. He grabbed her arm expressionlessly and pulled her to him from the crowd of people queuing to get on the bus.
Tang Mi was stunned. Before she could react, Jiang Minghao dragged her whole body to him. He put his hands on her shoulders, held her against him and walked toward the exit.
Her back was pressed against his chest, and when she raised her head, she could see his tight thin lips and sharp jawline. Her heart was beating so fast that she forgot to speak for a moment until he let go of her outside the station.
Jiang Minghao took her to a roof. He stood one step away from her, took out a cigarette and bit it in his mouth, looking at her with his eyes.
"one person?"
Tang Mi nodded obediently, "Yes."
"What are you doing here?" There is no reason for her to be here and she shouldn't be here.
Tang Mi didn't want to lie to him, so she said, "Looking for you."
Jiang Minghao was about to light a cigarette. After hearing this, he raised his eyelids and looked at her, "Looking for me?"
Tang Mi looked at him with her beautiful eyes and nodded, "Well, I'm just looking for you."
Jiang Minghao lit up his cigarette, took a puff, and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?"
Tang Mi pursed her lips and muttered, "Can't I come to you if nothing happens?"
Her voice was not soft, as if she was speaking to him on purpose. Jiang Minghao frowned slightly, put the lighter in his hand into his trouser pocket, and squinted at the girl in front of him.
Not to be outdone, Tang Mi looked back with a pair of beautiful eyes, looking directly into his eyes without hiding her inner feelings.
Jiang Minghao was stunned for a moment. He raised his hand to take off the cigarette in his mouth. He flicked his fingertips and a piece of ash fell, which was quickly blown away by the wind.
He spit out a mouthful of white mist and said to her: "Go back, you shouldn't be here."
Tang Mi looked at him and asked directly: "What do you mean you shouldn't?"
She was very smart and could hear the meaning behind Jiang Minghao's words, and also knew that Jiang Minghao had noticed her little thoughts.
Jiang Minghao looked down at her and said, "You are a smart girl, you understand what I mean."
Tang Mi looked at him stubbornly and pretended to be stupid: "I don't understand."
Jiang Minghao looked at the girl's stubborn eyes and said directly, "Don't waste your time on me, it's not worth it."
The words had been made clear, and Tang Mi was no longer hiding it. She stared into his eyes, took a step forward, and asked: "What is waste? What is not worth it?"
Jiang Minghao felt a little headache from her repeated questions. He clicked his tongue, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Why are you one hundred thousand?"
Tang Mi stood in front of him, looking up into his eyes with her little face raised. She called him, "Jiang Minghao."
She was very close to him. Jiang Minghao silently took the cigarette in his hand farther away, looked down at her, his Adam's apple rolled, "Yeah."
Tang Mi's beautiful eyes were bent, she looked at him with a sly expression, and said, "Jiang Minghao, do you dare to ask me if I like you."
Jiang Minghao was stunned for a moment, took a step back, opened the distance between the two, and said with some humor: "Why should I ask?"
There was still half a cigarette in his hand, so he picked it up and bit it in his mouth, looking away into the rain.
Tang Mi pouted indifferently, took another step closer to him, and stood side by side with him watching the rain. Jiang Minghao glanced at her from the corner of his eye. She was just as tall as his shoulders. As she approached, the faint fragrance washed away the dullness of the rainy day.
Then, he heard her say: "Jiang Minghao, I like you. I have liked you since the first time I met you."
She smiled and turned her head to look at him, "You may think it's a little ridiculous. I can't believe it myself. It turns out that there is such a thing as love at first sight in this world."
If the two of them were still secretly fighting each other just now, from this moment on, the word "like" was completely made public by her.
"You said I shouldn't be here, but the fact is that not only am I here, I also found you at a busy station. I thought we would miss you with so many people, but no."
Tang Mi looked at the sky and stretched out her hand to feel the raindrops falling on her palm. Jiang Minghao frowned and looked at her thin white hands, which gradually turned red when exposed to the cold air.
"You said you're not worth my time, but I want to tell you..." She took back her hand, turned around and looked into his eyes and said seriously, "I like you. , I’m not just talking. I hope you... can seriously consider me."
Jiang Minghao felt a little at a loss for the first time because of this girl's frankness.
After saying this, Tang Mi slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that she was so nervous when she said she liked her in front of him. Seeing that he remained silent, Tang Mi quickly said: "I'll give you three seconds to think about it. If you don't say anything, I'll treat it as your consent."
"Three two one, it's time." After Tang Mi finished speaking, she raised her empty wrist and pretended to read the watch without giving him a chance to speak.
She smiled and said, "You didn't say anything, so I'll take it as your promise."
Jiang Minghao:............
He looked at the bright smile on her face and felt a little unbearable for a moment. He raised his hand, brought the cigarette butt to his mouth, and took a long drag.
As the white smoke was exhaled, his cold voice came, "We... are not suitable."
Tang Mi's eyes dimmed for a moment, and then she raised her eyes to look at him again, "Jiang Minghao, how do you know it's not suitable if you haven't tried it?"
Jiang Minghao looked at her with squinted eyes. Looking at her, she asked herself carefully and tentatively: "How about... let's... give it a try?"
He found that as soon as he started talking, the girl became even more aggressive.
Jiang Minghao glanced at her and said calmly, "What are you trying?"
Tang Mi leaned towards him with her little face raised and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Try to fall in love with me."
Jiang Minghao stopped smoking and looked at her with a bright smile on her face. He tilted his head and sneered, put his finger on her forehead and pushed her away a little, saying, "What a beautiful idea."
Tang Mi pouted dissatisfiedly when he pushed her away and said, "It's okay if you don't talk to me, but you can't talk to others either."
Jiang Minghao didn't understand what she was talking about and looked at her without saying anything.
Tang Mi knew that her request was unreasonable, so she turned her head away from him and said, "I confessed to you first anyway. If you want to talk, I must be the first in line."
Jiang Minghao:..........She is really a eldest lady, so domineering.
He took out his mobile phone and said, "Tang Mi, we are not from the same world."
He still had to reject her.
Tang Mi pretended not to understand and said: "There is only one world, there is nothing that is yours or mine."
Jiang Minghao:........................
Okay, he can't talk to her.
Jiang Minghao originally wanted to send a message to Tang Zi, but he was afraid that the girl would come over quietly. If he sent a message to Tang Zi like this, he would not be questioned.
He logged out of WeChat, found the taxi app and hailed a taxi. This stretch of road was very congested on a rainy day. The driver was stuck at the intersection ahead and couldn't pass. I sent him a message on the platform and asked him if he could go a little further.
Jiang Minghao replied hello, then put away his phone and looked at Tang Mi, saying, "Let's go."
Tang Mi looked at him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Send you home." Jiang Minghao's tone was full of helplessness, and he walked forward after speaking.
Tang Mi quickly followed. There was some drizzle. Tang Mi raised her hand to cover her head. Then she remembered that the bag she had been carrying contained Jiang Minghao's coat.
She put a hand in front of her forehead and handed him the paper bag in her hand, "Jiang Minghao, I'll give you back your coat."
Jiang Minghao took the bag and glanced at her. A dense layer of raindrops had fallen on her hair. He touched the tip of his tongue to his cheek, made a light 'tsk' sound, took out the jacket from the bag, unzipped it and put it over her head.
Tang Mi was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Minghao carried the empty paper bag and walked forward without saying a word.
Tang Mi held his coat in her hand and chased after him, tilting her head to look at him, "Jiang Minghao, do you care about me?"
Jiang Minghao walked forward expressionlessly and said calmly: "No."
Tang Mi didn't listen and jumped up and down happily, "You just care about me."
Jiang Minghao was a little irritated. He raised his hand to take off his peaked cap and put it on again, "You are thinking too much."
Tang Mi looked at his annoyed expression and laughed mercilessly.
She said: "You are so stubborn."
Jiang Minghao:..........
