Even though he had just returned from the underworld yesterday and spent a certain amount of time talking to Yi Huai Ye, Tang Yuanyuan, who was exhausted, decided to go back to school the next day.
This was because she had been missing for three days without going to school for no apparent reason. It would be too arrogant for her to shamelessly say that she wanted to take a day off to rest.
Because she was always involved in ghost accidents, big and small, and she was often absent from class for no reason in the past, so she never had a good image in the eyes of the teacher and director. If it weren't for the school's The principal was an old acquaintance of her father and grandfather, and she had been expelled from school long ago.
She couldn't fundamentally solve the problem of her disappearance in an accident, so she could only try not to spend as much time on rest and asking for leave. She would often return to school immediately after dealing with the troubles, in order to prevent her from disappearing for too long. Her father and Mr. Tang.
As long as she can still appear normally in the eyes of outsiders, it means that there is nothing serious about her. In this case, her father and grandfather will not rush to her residence overnight. This was the agreement Tang Yuanyuan made with them in the past.
She also wanted to live a good campus life as a normal person should, and was unwilling to lose this opportunity because of her laziness.
As for taking a break, you can also take a break at school. Although this will make the teacher unhappy, it is obviously much better to sleep in class than to skip class directly.
So Tang Yuanyuan sat up from the bed on time the next morning. She heard the sweet alarm clock ringing, and she knew it was almost late without looking at the clock.
Before she could even yawn when she sat up, she heard the sound of someone knocking on the glass again, and followed the sound to see Gu Yuan tapping on the glass door on the balcony of her home. His shadow was printed on the door curtain, and the sound of someone knocking on the glass door was The hands flickered.
Tang Yuanyuan rubbed his eyes and responded: "I'm getting up."
Gu Yuan outside the door sighed and said helplessly in a familiar tone: "Hurry up, you're going to be late again."
When Gu Yuanjian called out to Tang Yuanyuan, he turned around and returned to his room. Tang Yuanyuan stumbled and put on his clothes, yawning and opened the door to the room.
This was a scene she was familiar with for countless mornings. Everything was so peaceful and beautiful. When she got up after a night's sleep, she felt as if she had had a long dream, and seemed to have forgotten something.
"Morning, little glutinous rice balls."
Tang Yuanyuan walked blindly with her eyes closed and ran into the arms of Yi Huai who was about to open the door and call her. She was annoyed when she bumped into something and heard his voice. At the same time, she felt a warm feeling rushing towards her face. She opened her eyes suddenly. He looked up at Yi Huai.
Only then did she remember that she had brought a man back to "live together" yesterday? ! !
"Morning..." She wanted to respond to him with an awkward yet polite smile. She was about to duck past him, but unexpectedly, Yi Huai's hand touched her face.
"What are you going to do..." She started to panic, fearing what Yi Huai would do so early in the morning. When she looked back at him again, she found that Yi Huai was staring into her eyes.
"Your eyes..." He murmured, as if he wanted to see something through her eyes.
This was not the first time that Yi Huai saw the heterochromatic eyes under Tang Yuanyuan's contact lenses, but he rarely saw them so close. In the past, it seemed that he had no time to observe those eyes due to emergency situations or awkward atmosphere.
Her eyes seemed to be even more different from her usual eyes under contact lenses. Her eyes were far more watery than usual, and her blue eyes were slightly rippled by her emotions, like the clear water reflecting the light in a clear stream; The red eyes are brighter than Yi Huai's crimson eyes, and the red, which is darker than the blue, reflects Yi Huai's shadow, shining like a bright ruby.
He sighed that her eyes were really beautiful, and those eyes reminded him of another person.
"Yuanyuan..." He seemed to shout softly unconsciously. Tang Yuanyuan was still in a daze at first, and then realized that he saw the shadow of another person through himself.
"You and her are really similar... She also has the same pair of heterochromatic pupils like yours... Your eyes and hers are both beautiful."
He reached out to lift the hair from Tang Yuanyuan's ears, but was suddenly stopped by Tang Yuanyuan.
"Wait, don't be impulsive." She looked at him, "Yi Huai, listen carefully, you can treat me as a friend, you can treat me as a family member, or you can treat me as a contractor, but you can't treat me as her ."
As she spoke, she took a step back to keep a little distance from Yi Huai, and then said:
"I don't want you to treat me as her substitute just because one or two of you say that I look like her here or there. I am Tang Yuanyuan, a living person. I am myself, not her, so you don't You are qualified to do those things because you think of me as her, do you understand?"
Although she wanted to help Yi Huai, she was tired of being treated as another person. She was not a substitute and she was not worthy of herself.
Yi Huai recovered from her words and suddenly realized that she seemed to have misunderstood what he meant. In fact, he was simply attracted by those eyes and truly thought her eyes were beautiful. He knew that Tang Yuanyuan and his vague memories The person looked similar, but he didn't think of her as someone else.
His Adam's apple slipped, and he wanted to open his mouth to explain, but looking at Tang Yuanyuan's somewhat wary face, he suddenly felt depressed and panicked, so he didn't say what he wanted to explain, but just lowered his head and said "Yeah."
Tang Yuanyuan walked around him towards the bathroom without saying anything.
After Tang Yuanyuan left, Yi Huai was still standing at the door of her room, but Zhen suddenly jumped out of the nest next to her and landed on Yi Huai's shoulder.
"You must be disgusted by her." It seemed to be a bit gloating, "Who told you to always treat her as another person? Girls hate being treated as a substitute."
Yi Huai was too lazy to pay attention to this gloating fox, let alone explain to it. He just sneered: "I don't believe it. You didn't get involved with Tang Yuanyuan because you saw the shadow of 'her' in Tang Yuanyuan."
"Don't you also know 'her'? And you seem to have some strange connections and entanglements with 'her'. You don't even seem to have mentioned this matter to Tang Yuanyuan. What qualifications do you have to speak against me?"
Zhen suddenly became quiet when he heard this. He raised his head and stared at Yi Huai for a while, with some unpleasant emotions appearing on his face. But not long after, he responded as if nothing happened:
"I'm different from you...'She' is the person you cherish, not mine. Maybe it was 'She' who rescued me from my death job back then, but it was Tang Yuanyuan who named me and brought me out. It was Tang Yuanyuan who extended my life with spiritual power, and it was Tang Yuanyuan who signed the contract with me. My master is Tang Yuanyuan, not 'her'."
Zhen jumped off his shoulder, turned to Yi Huai and said, "For me, Tang Yuanyuan is unique."
After saying this, Zhen disappeared in front of Yi Huai, who stood there and frowned, refuting the other person in his heart.
Isn't Tang Yuanyuan unique to him? Doesn't everyone think that he regards Tang Yuanyuan as "her" substitute?
In fact, he knows better than anyone else that Tang Yuanyuan and "Yuanyuan" are similar, but not the same.
But he couldn't say such words in front of Tang Yuanyuan... The scene of Tang Yuanyuan just retreating from him suddenly flashed in his mind, and he felt a flash of pain in his heart, which was indescribable. sad.
What made him feel even more inexplicable was that this feeling came from Tang Yuanyuan's rejection. This feeling was something he had never experienced with anyone in the past, and it made him feel very uncomfortable.
He originally hoped to get closer to Tang Yuanyuan. After all, she made such a promise to him last night, which aroused great waves in his heart.
He envied Zhen's calmness in his heart, but just now he didn't even have the courage to say anything in front of Tang Yuanyuan.
How did Yi Huai come to say that Tang Yuanyuan was not special to him? He would not and was not qualified to say such things.
It was Tang Yuanyuan who pulled him out of the corpse ghost hexagram and gave him new hope and opportunities. It can be said that with the remaining spiritual power in his body, he would never be able to survive the corpse ghost hexagram and the corpse ghost hexagram would automatically open and release him. At that moment, if he was really imprisoned, sooner or later he would be out of his mind.
Tang Yuanyuan saved his life and was the only person besides "her" who was willing to take the initiative to get involved with him.
Most importantly, she said that she would be her home and harbor, and there might not be another person in the world who was willing to make such a commitment to him.
Although Tang Yuanyuan is a smart person, Yi Huai sometimes feels that she is like a fool who is overflowing with sympathy. He feels that people like Tang Yuanyuan will suffer a lot if she has no one to protect her.
His heart started to get confused for no reason, and when he raised his hand, he accidentally saw the looming red line wrapped around his little finger.
"Love..."
He looked at the red thread and murmured to himself in a low voice. He couldn't help but turn his eyes to the direction of the bathroom where Tang Yuanyuan went. When he thought of Tang Yuanyuan, his heart jumped violently, and he seemed to realize it. What's going on? He quickly clenched his fists, closed his eyes and shook his head slightly, letting the red line hide between his little fingers again.
He took a deep breath, left her door, and walked quickly into the kitchen.
........
After Tang Yuanyuan finished washing, he walked to the dining room and found three hot breakfasts on the table.
During her school days, she never had the opportunity to have a delicious and hot breakfast at home. The reason was that she lived alone and had a special situation. She was not at ease and it was inconvenient to ask the nanny and chef to stay at home to make breakfast early in the morning.
As for herself, she had to call Gu Yuan all day long to avoid being late. She had no chance to get up and make breakfast by herself. But now, there were hot noodles with fresh fried eggs and ham and steaming fresh milk on the table. , Tang Yuanyuan's eyes glowed.
"It's a hot breakfast -" her tone suddenly became cheerful. For foodies, there is nothing that one piece of food cannot solve. If there is anything - then use two pieces of food to solve it.
"I made it for you and Zhen." Yi Huai walked in from the door of the restaurant, "Because you go to school and I'm worried that you won't have time to make breakfast...and...Tang Yuanyuan, I'm sorry...for making you angry this morning. "
He took a deep breath and said seriously: "I don't think of you as anyone else, I just really think your eyes are beautiful."
She raised her head and glanced at Yi Huai. She was a little surprised that he would come to apologize, but she didn't care too much. She smiled at him and said, "It's okay. Even if you really think of me, you just think that you miss your little girlfriend too much." Well, tsk tsk man, you really have a good attitude at breakfast, I forgive you, just don’t do that to me next time.”
She was smiling. Yi Huai felt uncomfortable listening to her words. He felt that she didn't believe her words at all. For a moment, he wanted to explain more, but he didn't know what to explain or how to explain. He could only Watching Tang Yuanyuan sit down at the table and devour the food.
Then he muttered to himself helplessly: "She and I don't have that kind of relationship..."
But his words didn't reach Tang Yuanyuan's ears. Tang Yuanyuan was just concentrating on the delicious food on the plate.
"Eat slowly and no one will compete with you. If you don't have enough, you'll even eat my share." Yi Huai was afraid that she would choke, so he reminded her helplessly, but Tang Yuanyuan only responded while eating: "Don't worry, I'll be late (if I'm slower, I'll be late)."
Yi Huai knew he couldn't persuade her anymore, so he sat down next to her and slowly ate his portion. He looked up at Tang Yuanyuan from time to time, feeling that watching her eat made him feel much happier than eating himself.
It seemed that he hadn't felt like this in many years, as if just looking at a person's shadow beside him... he could feel at ease.
