After He Tianran entered the hotel, he walked alone at the door of the room for two minutes. Since the room card had to be left in the room to connect to the electricity, he could only knock on the door.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk."
A moment later, he heard movement in the room, and He Tianran's throat twitched twice.
The door opened with a "squeak", and He Tianran felt as if he had been hit in the head by a bullet, and a high-frequency alarm sounded in his ears.
In front of his eyes, he saw Cao Aiqing wearing a white bathrobe, her black hair was half-dry and wrapped in a towel, and a few strands of hair were hanging on her temples. Maybe it was because she had just taken a bath. The white and tender cheeks had a particularly attractive moist luster, and the watery eyes were filled with many emotions at this moment, such as shyness, embarrassment, nervousness, and...expectation.
Meeting such eyes, He Tianran stayed on the spot unable to move. Cao Aiqing opened the door for him. Seeing her boyfriend's reaction, she immediately buried her head again, turned around like a frightened little rabbit, and ran away quickly When she returned to the bed, she lifted the quilt and got in. Suddenly her whole body was covered again...
He Tianran entered the room, turned around and closed the door with slightly trembling hands. His heart almost jumped out of his mouth, and his mind was still thinking about what Cao Aiqing had inadvertently exposed under his bathrobe just now when he turned around and trotted away. A section of fair calf...
Should this be changed to ancient times, when it would not be possible to recite a poem to express feelings?
However, we don’t care whether He Tianran has that kind of talent or not. His whole mind is now a mess, and he can’t help but whisper, "Don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous, small scene, small scene, I can, I can..."
He put down the plastic bag, smoothed his hair, and said nervously:
"I...I'm going to take a shower now..."
Cao Aiqing, who was under the quilt, ignored him.
He Tianran scratched his face, put on the hotel slippers, and walked to the bathroom.
"呲~"
The shower head in the bathroom sprayed out hot water, and there was still a fragrance lingering in the slightly small space. He Tianran had never taken a bath so seriously in his life. He applied the shower gel three times in a row and it was still not enough because he washed it too much. Seriously, the skin on my body was so washed that it felt like it was burning. It almost made me bald.
And just when he was about to come out after cleaning, he heard the cell phone in the room suddenly ringing.
Hearing the ringtone, it was not from his cell phone. The sound of Cao Aiqing answering the phone came over. He Tianran in the bathroom was choked with blood. This phone call really knows how to choose the time. Should he go out now or not?
"If we go out, Ai Qing will definitely feel embarrassed. I'd better wait until she finishes the fight. It won't take more than a minute and a half."
He Tianran thought silently, and reopened the shower head to make some noise, to signal to his girlfriend outside that he could talk safely. The soundproofing of this hotel was not bad, and he did it deliberately, so Cao Aiqing could hardly be heard in the bathroom. The sound of talking.
So, He Tianran, who was preparing to face the most important event in his life, just wore a bathrobe, hugging the clothes he had changed into, sitting on the toilet seat with a straight face and anxious heart.
Listening to the sound of water dripping in his ears, He Tianran suddenly said this sentence in his heart -
"Actually, it's still not too late for you to call Wen Liang or go back to school to ask her out."
"who?"
He Tianran was suddenly startled. The sounds that appeared twice in succession today at noon and evening made him think that they were just his auditory hallucinations or imaginings due to his emotional ups and downs. But this time the sounds came so real that his impetuous heart instantly clam down.
"My silly aibo, you still can't figure out who I am?"
The familiar voice was not concealed this time, and there was even a hint of playfulness and chuuni in the tone. For example, the word "aibo" is a joke from the anime "Yu-Gi-Oh!". Since the protagonist has one body and two souls, there is a connection between them. Called this way, it means "coexistence" or "partnership".
He Tianran had been away from home for a long time, but when he heard the words and voice so familiar, he immediately realized something and blurted out:
"you are me?"
"Maybe, maybe not, this is not important. What is important is that I want to give you a piece of advice..."
The voice paused for a moment and said in He Tianran's pretendingly deep voice just after waking up from sleep:
"Have you decided to join hands with Ai Qing and move towards the future?"
"Of course I..."
"Don't worry, just listen to the sound of the water and think about it again."
As soon as these words disappeared, He Tianran felt that the sound of water falling in the bathroom suddenly increased. He suddenly looked at the water drops that were constantly falling. The space in front of him experienced an indescribable distortion, as if these water drops turned into a downpour. It was raining heavily. He was standing in the rain, and there was a blurry conversation in his ears——
"Today at 5:02, ○○ will encounter a typhoon on the way home. Her mind will be distracted because she is thinking about you and me, causing the tire to slip and crash into the guardrail at the beach, killing everyone. The one with the cart fell into the sea.”
"This is my story with her, it has nothing to do with you."
"It's great... it's great... it's not you... you don't have to suffer anymore... you don't have to do it all over again... you will definitely live forever... your life is finally free... it's great... …”
…
"Dong dong dong... Natural, are you okay?"
As Cao Aiqing shouted outside the door, He Tianran woke up instantly, and his inner voice suddenly stopped. His forehead was covered with cold sweat, his pupils were dilated, and the water in the bathroom had unknowingly spread to his feet.
He stood up holding his clothes, and the rosary beads given by Cao Aiqing slipped from his pocket and fell to the ground.
Looking at the rosary, He Tianran froze, but after only a moment, he picked it up again.
Opening the bathroom door, Cao Aiqing looked anxious outside.
He Tianran couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with Ai Qing?"
Cao Aiqing grabbed He Tianran's hand and said anxiously: "Tingting called me just now and told me that something happened to Xue Yong. He...he went to Macau on the weekend and lost more than 300,000 yuan in one fell swoop. Now, I borrowed money from friends everywhere, and just now...he took advantage of Tingting and called me to ask if you could help him."
Congratulations, this best friend of mine is really interesting to do this to me at this time.
However, he complained in his heart, and he couldn't put it directly on his face. He comforted Cao Aiqing and said, "Don't be anxious, let's sit down and talk."
Seeing He Tianran's performance, Cao Aiqing's heart calmed down.
The two walked to the bed and sat down. He Tianran asked: "Three hundred thousand is not impossible for Xue Yong's family to come up with. Why would he think of borrowing money from a friend?"
Cao Aiqing sorted out the information on the phone and replied:
"Because the police academy attaches great importance to the personal morality of students, if this matter was known to their school, Xue Yong would definitely be expelled. However, Xue Yong did not dare to tell his father about this matter, because if he knew, his father would treat him badly The good impression he had after being admitted to college will definitely disappear, and his life will not be easy in the next four years, so he said that he would not discuss it with his family unless it was absolutely necessary, and thought of making it up with his friends first. He will definitely pay it back in half a year at the earliest and a year at the latest.”
He Tianran thought to himself, good guy, I only get 4,000 yuan a month, which is not stable. Now I can hardly support myself. Where can I find 300,000 yuan for you?
Cao Aiqing knew about her boyfriend's situation. She just heard Bai Tingting talk about it. The amount involved was not something students like them could afford, so she panicked for a moment. Now her mood gradually stabilized and she looked at her boyfriend. Also calmed down.
She grabbed He Tianran's hand with both hands and said, "Tranran, actually, personally, I think you should... stop helping him on this matter."
He Tianran asked: "How to say?"
Cao Aiqing thought for a moment and analyzed:
"First of all, it's not that Xue Yong's family can't afford the money. For them, this is not a serious matter that will destroy their family. Secondly, Xue Yong called you because he knows what your family background is, but he doesn't I know that you are now alone and having a quarrel with your family, and you are powerless to help him on your own. But if I ask you to contact your father for this matter, it always makes me feel a little inappropriate, so I might as well It is also a good thing for Xue Yong to teach him a long lesson and suffer hardship."
What his girlfriend said was what He Tianran thought. He really had no way to help Xue Yong now, but one of Cao Aiqing's words made He Tianran a little... puzzling.
"Ai Qing, why do you think it would be inappropriate for me to contact my father?"
Naturally, He Tianran would not contact He Panshan about this matter, but his reason was very personal, so he also wanted to know what Cao Aiqing thought about this.
Cao Aiqing pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Of course, I remember you have a younger brother, right?"
"yes."
In He Tianran's circle of friends, only Cao Aiqing and Bai Tingting knew He Yuanchong, but Cao Aiqing suddenly mentioned him, which made He Tianran a little confused.
"If, I say, if, if your father knew that your friends were like this, and you spoke for him, what would your father think of you? Xue Yong knew that he had to hide this matter from his family. , not to mention you have a younger brother..."
He Tianran froze after hearing the whole thing. He didn't dare to think deeply, but just looked at Cao Aiqing blankly.
Cao Aiqing knew that he had made a mistake, but he still added:
"Naturally, I don't want to intensify the conflict between you and your family. I can see that you are now supporting yourself, but it is precisely because of this that I have to tell you this. I still remember that your brother came to school last year and teased you verbally. When we were talking, you went up and punched him without saying a word. I could see that you wanted to protect me, but this incident also let me know that the relationship between you brothers is actually not good. I said these words, although It’s not pleasant to hear, but these are very practical issues…”
Cao Aiqing slowly leaned her head into He Tianran's arms, and He Tianran naturally opened his arms and hugged her gently.
"Ai Qing, there is one more thing you haven't considered..."
"What?"
"Have you ever thought that if I don't help Xue Yong this time... then our brothers may... really have nothing to do."
He Tianran knew very well how unhappy he had been with Xue Yong at the nightclub last time. That boy was such a nice person. This time he came to Cao Aiqing to communicate with him through Bai Tingting. It was obvious that he really had no way out. .
Three hundred thousand is not even a burden for a family like Xue Yong, so He Tianran is not worried about what will happen if he loses so much money, but is worried about the friendship between the two.
This situation is really embarrassing. There is definitely nothing I can do to help Xue Yong. Normally, he might have said it directly. It is really impossible to come up with ideas together. But with the current relationship between the two brothers, it is difficult to say some things, so I just To be so stiff...
This friendship is actually a very small point in this matter, but it is what He Tianran values most.
He Tianran has always been sensitive to money, but he doesn't pay much attention to it. Even though his pocket is empty now, the concept of "money" has never risen to the first place in his heart. This is caused by the environment in which he grew up. He paid attention to it because he lived a very wealthy life when he was a child.
The reason why he was sensitive was that every time he asked He Panshan for pocket money, the man would always say:
"It's not like the strong wind blew my money. I gave you the money because you are my son, not because I owe you. You must remember!"
Over time, He Tianran really remembered this sentence in his heart. This may have come from his father's mouth just to educate his children on the concept of money, and they don't need food to stretch out their hands and clothes to open their mouths.
However, from a child's perspective, this sentence also became an inducement for He Tianran's cold character in the future.
He won't ask He Panshan. Money is not the first priority, and he can't help Xue Yong. However, Xue Yong is He Tianran's first real friend. How bad he was at socializing in the past, now he is He valued this friendship more.
Because of his coldness, He Tianran cherishes everything he gets.
It was this kind of regard that made He Tianran feel... helpless.
What Cao Aiqing said was unexpected by He Tianran, but it was also reasonable. His girlfriend thought deeper and more realistically than she did, but she didn't hit the key point in He Tianran's heart.
The girl in her arms also noticed the entanglement in her boyfriend's heart. She raised her face and held her boyfriend's hand tighter.
"Natural, no matter what you choose, I will support you..."
He Tianran smiled slightly and said, "What choice do I have? If I can't help with this matter, I can't help. Let Xue Yong clean up the evil he caused himself. Alas, sometimes I do have some emotions..."
He pulled back the quilt and the two bodies slowly lay down.
Warm breath blew on their faces. Cao Aiqing rested his head on He Tianran's arm and shrank back into his arms. He Tianran was holding soft jade in his arms, and there was an alluring aroma on the tip of his nose. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Self-control, but I just finished talking about it a second ago, and now I am thinking about that job, which is really a bit abrupt...
"Of course, please tell me in detail what happened that night...about Xue Yong and Tingting..."
Cao Aiqing started talking in a low voice. He Tianran thought about it and found an entry point:
"Actually, I admire Tingting very much..."
He Tianran recounted the night's experience again in detail, but this time it was mostly about his feelings. Xue Yong was so playful and playful that it eventually led to a big mistake. Now he has reaped the consequences. This made He Tianran think about himself. Wen Liang's free and easy attitude tonight may have been somewhat influenced by Bai Tingting...
He kept talking for a long time without realizing it. When he came back to his senses, Cao Aiqing beside him had closed his eyes, and only the quiet and steady breathing came from his nose.
The two bodies were very close to each other, and their feet would sometimes touch each other. Looking at the girl's sleeping face as peacefully as a baby, He Tianran knew that Cao Aiqing really believed in him...
Therefore, Brother Tianran couldn't help but move his butt back...
At night, He Tianran sighed and couldn't bear to disturb his girlfriend's sweet dream.
This day was too long, and the emotional ups and downs made He Tianran feel extremely tired. He gently kissed Cao Aiqing's slender neck and sleeping brows, and then closed his eyes with satisfaction.
He didn't know that at this moment, Cao Aiqing beside him had a sweet and happy smile on his lips.
