Chapter 24(2/2)
There were basically no people on the night bus, so Qiao Chen and Shi Xiao took the last two seats on the bus.
Shi Xiao sat by the window, Qiao Chen sat next to her, the bus started slowly, the lights on the roof of the car dimmed, and only neon lights on the street were occasionally shining through the window, reflecting the faces of the two of them.
"Qiao Chen, it's so late, aren't you going home yet?"
"Not going back."
"Or stay in a hotel?"
"Um."
The two were silent for a while, and the last passenger also got off at the station, and there were only two of them on the bus.
Qiao Chen's short-sleeved arms were tightly pressed against Shi Xiao's arms. Shi Xiao felt his warm and tight skin, and his heartbeat gradually accelerated.
The touch of the skin touched every nerve that touched her body was trembling.
Shi Xiao secretly glanced at Qiao Chen with the afterglow. He hugged his arms, lowered his head, and closed his eyes.
The neon shadows outside the window reflected his handsome side face from time to time, and his tall nose bridge divided the light and shadow. His eyelashes were long and very fine.
Qiao Chen, who was sleeping, his sharp outline gradually became much softer, unlike his usual arrogant and domineering.
Shi Xiao suddenly thought of her two years ago when she just entered the city to study in her first year of high school.
She was thin and small at that time. Once after class, a group of boys rushed out of the classroom with basketballs. Shi Xiao happened to enter the door and was knocked to the ground unexpectedly, but no one paid attention to her, a little black girl.
At that time, Qiao Chen happened to pass by her side. Without thinking, he picked her up like a kitten.
Shi Xiao recalled the scenes at that time countless times, recalling the time when he picked her up, he didn't even look at her, and walked out of the classroom with a basketball talking and laughing.
From then on, a figure moved into Shi Xiao's heart.
The figure passed by the corridor and saw that there was garbage that got in the way, he would pick it up and throw it away. He walked out of the cafeteria with a skewers and slippers. He passed by a wandering puppy looking at him pitifully. He would also eat the first bite and throw the rest to it...
Only Shi Xiao saw these things that others could not see.
Only Shi Xiao remembered those things he was careless.
In the eyes of others, he is still the one who can't be offended by anyone, who is arrogant and domineering, bullying others with power.
Those warm, unknown fragments of time are only preserved in her memory.
When the bus arrived at the stop, Qiao Chen woke up and looked at Shi Xiao sideways. Shi Xiao smiled at him with a pursed lips.
Qiao Chen stretched out his long and pulled out of the car with Shi Xiao in front and behind.
The two of them stood on the strange streets, both of them were a little messy.
"What the hell is this?"
Shi Xiao said: "This is the terminal."
"Aren't you going back to school?"
"The school station has passed long ago."
"Then why don't you get off?"
Shi Xiao glanced at him: "Because you are sleeping soundly."
The next sentence she didn't say is: I just want to accompany you.
Maybe it's not the rest of my life, but at this moment, it's late at night, and I want to accompany you.
Qiao Chen was a little helpless: "Are you an idiot? You don't know how to snort after sitting in the stand. What should I do now?"
"Go back."
Shi Xiao walked back easily.
Qiao Chen looked at her back and looked up slightly. The deep blue starry sky was decorated with several lonely stars.
He felt inexplicably good, and he caught up with Shi Xiao in just a few steps.
However, at this time, Shi Xiao stopped walking.
Qiao Chen caught up with him and followed Shi Xiao's gaze. He saw a girl wearing a beige windbreaker, pulling her suitcase, getting out of the taxi, walking towards the residential community opposite, and walking in a hurry.
Qiao Chen murmured, "Who is this person?"
"Don't you remember who she is?"
Qiao Chen was confused: "It seems a bit familiar."
Shi Xiao frowned slightly, and she said, "That's... Yang Xi."
