I picked up a tissue and handed it to Qiu Tong. Qiu Tong took it and whispered, "Thank you, I'm sorry. The smoke from your cigarette has already flooded my eyes."
I ignored Qiu Tong's concealing words and looked at her. "Qiu Tong, I can see your heart."
Qiu Tong's body shuddered slightly as she looked at me. "Yi Ke, what are you talking about?"
"You understand!" "No," I said.
"I don't understand." Qiu Tong suddenly laughed and raised a bottle of beer. "Here, congratulations on my success. Cheers —"
I touched the bottle with Qiu Tong's hand and said, "You don't call this a performance. You call it self-talk."
After saying that, I raised my head and drained the bottle in one go. After drinking it, I saw Qiu Tong still holding the bottle and staring at me blankly.
"Are you stupid? Why are you always looking at me?" "No," I said.
Qiu Tong's body trembled as she came back to her senses. She exhaled, took a big gulp of beer, and said, "Yi Ke, don't you feel that you're too smart?"
"Is that so?"
"Yes, I think you are too clever. "Humph!" Qiu Tong suddenly laughed lovingly. She was slightly drunk and looked very cute.
Only now did I understand that Qiu Tong was saying the opposite. I laughed at myself.
At this moment, a soothing slow dance started playing.
"If you don't want to sing, then how about dancing?" Qiu Tong stood up shakily and extended her hand to me. "It has always been men's invitations. Am I not giving you face today?"
I couldn't refuse Qiu Tong anymore. I stood up and took Qiu Tong's hand. We started to dance to the music.
I held Qiu Tong's hand in my left. It was a little cold, but it was also so soft.
I put my right hand on Qiu Tong's waist, which was warm and elastic through the thin fabric of her dress.
Qiu Tong and I faced each other, a few feet apart. I could feel her breath and the fragrance of her body, and of course she could feel mine, but my body wasn't fragrant.
Thinking about the song Qiu Tong sang just now, thinking about the scene when Qiu Tong sang, thinking about my beloved Floating Dream in my dreams, and looking at the Floating Dream that had turned into reality in front of me, my heart stirred. I impulsively held Qiu Tong's hand, which couldn't help but tighten around her waist …
Qiu Tong obviously felt it and slightly resisted. She looked at me with a flushed face. "Yi Ke, what are you doing?"
When Qiu Tong asked this question, I was a little flustered and hurriedly went back to normal. "No …" "Nothing, I was distracted just now."
After saying this, the Floating Dream in front of my eyes instantly disappeared. I suddenly realized how cold and cruel the reality that Qiu Tong and I were in was!
My heart was suddenly cold and filled with unspeakable bitterness.
I stopped talking and danced silently with Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong was silent for a long time, and then she said softly, "Yi Ke, you are an experienced person, maybe, I can see your heart. Your heart should be in pain right now. "
My body shook. Qiu Tong felt it and subconsciously held my hand.
"Qiu Tong, your heart is also bitter." I whispered in her ear, and Qiu Tong's hair touched my lips.
Qiu Tong's body shook, and I subconsciously squeezed her hand again.
"But I hope that your heart will be happy. I hope that you will be happy from the people who belong to you." Qiu Tong said softly.
Obviously, she was referring to Dong Xue.
"I also hope that your heart will be happy. I hope that you will be happy from someone whose soul belongs to you." I whispered.
Obviously, I'm not talking about Lee Shun.
"Thank you." Qiu Tong whispered.
Then we continued to dance and said nothing.
After the dance, Qiu Tong and I went straight to her house. When we got there, Qiu Tong looked at me and said, "Thank you for taking me home. It's getting late, so I won't invite you up to take a seat."
It could be seen that Qiu Tong's mood seemed to be rather depressed tonight.
I nodded. "Alright, go up and rest early. I'll be going now."
"Mm …"
I turned and walked away. After a long walk, I looked back and saw Qiu Tong still standing in front of the building, looking at me under the street lamp. She didn't move.
I stopped and looked at Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong saw me stop, waved to me, then turned and walked into the corridor.
I returned to my dorm room in Wanda's apartment. Dong Xue was there and seemed to have drank too. When she saw me enter, she shook her head a few times and sat on the sofa without moving. "I'm back —"
"Mm …"
"Come, sit with me!" Dong Xue patted the sofa.
I went over and sat next to Dong Xue.
Dong Xue stretched out her head and sniffed me, then said, "Besides the smell of smoke and alcohol, there seems to be a faint fragrance coming from my body."
My heart skipped a beat. It must have been Qiu Tong's scent, because my close contact with her had been transmitted to me through the air.
"Other than drinking at night, what else can I do?" Dong Xue looked at me and let out a breath of alcohol.
"Singing —" I said.
"With whom?" Dong Xue said.
"Colleagues!"
"Which colleague?"
"Boss Ping from the advertising company, and also, Boss Qiu."
"Boss Ping, Boss Qiu." Dong Xue looked at me and said, "That Boss Ping, he's a light bulb maker, right? Drinking and singing, why do you smell so good?"
"Besides drinking and singing, they even danced." I was incoherent.
"Dance? What kind of dance was she doing? A noodle dance? " Dong Xue's voice gradually became angry.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's dance!" "No," I said.
"What am I talking about? What nonsense do you think I am spouting? " Dong Xue's voice suddenly became louder. She stood up and looked down at me condescendingly. "Ke, what are you doing? What do you want with her? Let me tell you, where did you eat and drink tonight? And where did you sing? I know all about it. You're honest, you're not lying. But let me warn you, from now on, you don't have much contact with that woman, and you don't have to use your work as a way to stir up all that hubbub. Do you think I'm an idiot or a blind person? "
"You--we really have nothing to do with it. Don't let your imagination run wild!" I stood up and patted Dong Xue on the shoulder.
"What do you mean nothing? Hmph, if you follow that kind of woman, what good would happen?" Dong Xue said.
"What did you say?" What kind of woman are you talking about? " I looked at Dong Xue.
"What kind of woman?" What kind of woman could it be? " Dong Xue's face showed disdain and disdain, "I heard from someone that she doesn't have any dog shit abilities, and only relying on her face to get up there, I originally thought she was very serious, hmph, now it seems that it's just that, I knew that among all the women that come up, only a few of them rely on their real abilities, and only on their bed skills."
"Bastard — what nonsense are you spouting?" I am angry, angry from the bottom of my heart: "You tell me, who did you hear it from? "Where did you hear that?"
"Look at you, I say, what the hell does she care about you? Look at your excited look!" Dong Xue stared at me. "Where did I hear that from?" You don't have to worry about it. You know a lot about it outside. Explain yourself to me first. Where did the fragrance on your body come from? What have you been up to with her tonight? "
I was so angry I couldn't speak.
"I knew you wouldn't dare to say it. I knew you had a guilty conscience." Dong Xue became even angrier. "Let me tell you, I didn't smell your scent at all just now. I just wanted to test what you and her have done. That Boss Ping, he left right after he went to sing. Do you think I don't know about him? You and she have been alone in the compartment ever since. Sure enough, you didn't do anything good when you were with her? "
How did Dong Xue know so much about my whereabouts tonight? I was confused, but I couldn't guess.
"On the surface, he looks like a good person who wants to treat others to a meal and presents, but in reality, the person behind the scenes is seducing another person. Shameless, disgraceful, shameless!" Seeing that I didn't say anything, Dong Xue suddenly gritted her teeth and cursed.
"Who are you scolding?" I glared at Dong Xue.
"Who's the coquettish fox? I'll scold him!" Whoever seduces my man, I'll scold them! " Dong Xue did not give in as she continued to curse, "Smelly cousin! Smelly girl! Shameless!"
"Pah!" My blood rushed to my head as my anger assaulted my heart. Without any hesitation, I raised my hand and slapped Dong Xue's face.
"You vile person with a vile heart framed and slandered others, do you think that you've done any good deeds?" The suspicion and anger I had accumulated for the past nine months exploded in an instant, and I screamed hysterically at Dong Xue.
"AHH@@
After shouting, my emotions froze due to my excitement and impulsiveness.
My head is misty, a little dizzy, the heart suddenly empty, what's wrong with me? I actually hit a woman, for the first time in my life, and it's my first time love, Dong Xue!
Why did I yell that?
Hadn't I endured for so long to cover up everything that had happened to Dong Xue in those nine months? Wasn't it Dong Xue who hinted that she wanted to tell me something and I went over to stop her from saying it? Wasn't he planning to unravel the memories of the past in the midst of anesthesia and chaos?
Since this is what I was thinking, why did I suddenly blurt out these words and pick at the scars of the past? Could it be that even though I kept thinking about those things, deep down in my heart, I was still resentful over them?
I stared blankly at Dong Xue. After hitting her face, Dong Xue's hand stopped in front of her chest, trembling non-stop.
Looking at Dong Xue's flushed cheeks, thinking of the deep slander Dong Xue had given Qiu Tong earlier, thinking of the words I had shouted at Dong Xue earlier, my heart ached with hate, pain, bitterness and sadness. For a moment, I felt as if I had lost all feeling.
