Chapter 10 Chapter 10

After waking up from the drowsiness, it was already daylight, Baicao looked at the time, it was half past eight in the morning, she was startled, got out of bed in a hurry, dressed and washed her face.She had never woken up so late before, and her mind was still a little muddy, and she felt as if something very confusing had happened, but she couldn't remember it. It was like a dream, and it seemed real.She wanted to ask Xiaoying, but found that Xiaoying had already left. After hastily closing the door, she was about to rush to the training center, when she looked up, she suddenly saw Chu Yuan waiting under the row of poplar trees in front of her.

The sun is shining brightly. The leaves sway. "If you don't come out yet, I'll knock on the door and call for you." Chu Yuan walked up to her and asked, "Does your head still hurt?" "...It doesn't hurt." "Don't drink any more next time," Chuyuan handed her a cup of soy milk and a cake, "The breakfast in the cafeteria is over, you can eat these." Baicao took it with a blushing face and explained, "I thought it was a drink." "Well, you'll know later on, don't drink too much of alcoholic beverages," Chuyuan rubbed her head, and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll take you to the training center."

"I can go by myself!" "You're almost late, the car is parked there." Chu Yuan pointed. The midsummer sun was in full swing, and the earth seemed to be burning.The car was driving steadily, the air-conditioning was blowing softly, it seemed to be a different world from the outside world, the soy milk was still warm, and the cake was delicious. Baicao sat in the co-pilot's seat and concentrated on eating. "Last night, I couldn't find Ruobai." Seeing that she was drinking soy milk through a straw, Chu Yuan carefully drove around a pothole in the road, "I will continue to look for it today."

"..." Baicao was stunned, she let go of the straw and looked at him. "You searched all night?" "The places I went to look for last night, it seems that you have already been there during the day. I got the address list of his class from one of Ruobai's classmates, but no one knows where he went," Will The car turned a corner, Chuyuan looked ahead, thought about it and said, "If Bai is a cautious person, nothing will happen to him. However, I will inquire about some places again, and will inform you in time whether there is any news or not." You. You can train with peace of mind, don't worry too much."

Baicao stared blankly at the tiredness around his eyes, could it be that he had been looking for Ruobai all night and didn't sleep... Chuyuan turned his head, smiled at her, and said, "Don't worry, huh?" "En." She responded, lowered her head awkwardly, and suddenly remembered what she said to him last night, she ate the soy milk and cake in a panic, and dared not go to see him again. "Arrived." In front was the white stadium of the training center. Chuyuan parked the car, reached out to help her unbuckle her seat belt, and said, "I'll accompany you in."

"Huh?" Baicao was at a loss. Chuyuan got out of the car, opened the door for her, and said, "They all saw it last night. I'm worried that they will ask you too much." "..." Baicao continued to be at a loss, she opened her eyes wide and stared blankly at Chuyuan, suddenly, there was a blast in her mind, and the chaotic and fragmented fragments in her memory flashed past!She was drunk, she was in Chuyuan's arms, the noise suddenly sounded, the team members were stunned, and Tingyi was at the front... That's not a dream! That is true…… "It's okay," Chu Yuan rubbed her hair, "I will make it clear with them."

"No!" She was in a mess and subconsciously refused to speak.Although she didn't know what to do, if such a scene happened just last night, Tingyi would definitely be embarrassed if she appeared with Chuyuan today.Everyone in the team understood Tingyi's feelings for Chuyuan. She had always thought that Tingyi was Chuyuan's girlfriend. "I can do it myself." Taking a breath, Baicao made herself look calmer, forced a smile to Chuyuan, and said, "Everyone treats me very well, nothing will happen." "are you sure?" "Ok!" "...Okay," Chuyuan stared at her, "If you are unhappy, please call me."

"it is good." When walking up the high steps of the training hall and pushing open the glass door, Baicao's hands were still tense and stiff.She turned her head, in the distance, under the scorching sun, Chu Yuan was still standing by the car looking at her.Biting her lip, she pushed open the glass door and walked in. The cold air in the hall made her shiver suddenly. It was very quiet in the hall. It was as if there was no one else but her. Walking to the door of the storage room, there was no sound from outside, Baicao opened the door, and was stunned for a moment── The small room was full of people.

Lin Feng, Mei Ling, Xiao Ying, and Guang Ya were standing, some were sitting, and everyone looked a little strange, as if they had just argued before she came in, and there was still a certain smell of gunpowder in the air. Seeing her come in, everyone's expressions changed.Tingyi, who was standing in front of the locker, also turned around slowly. "Baicao..." Mei Ling frowned, unable to hold her breath. "Baicao, you are drunk, aren't you?" Xiaoying hurriedly interrupted Mei Ling and asked, she also didn't seem to sleep well all night, and there were big dark circles under her eyes.

"..." Baicao was stunned. "Drunk, aren't you!" Xiaoying was anxious and flustered, and asked again with an emphatic tone. "...Yes, I was drunk last night." "Huh, let me just say, Baicao must be drunk, and then senior brother Chuyuan saw that Baicao was drunk, he couldn't stand upright, and he was about to fall, so he picked up Baicao, who knew that it happened to be caught by us Yes, there was a misunderstanding." Xiaoying said with relief, and laughed dryly, "Hehe, it's nothing, it's just a misunderstanding, it has nothing to do with Baicao, even if I'm drunk and lethargic, Senior Brother Chuyuan won't stand by Watching me fall, it’s normal to help or hug me.”

"Really?" Mei Ling said suspiciously, staring at Baicao. "That's right, I think so too." Guangya nodded in agreement, and then said, "Baicao, change your clothes quickly." "……Ok." When Baicao walked over, she could feel that Mei Ling's eyes were still fixed on her.Walking to the locker, Tingyi's faint voice came from her ear: . "You did it on purpose, didn't you?" "..." Baicao was startled and looked at Tingyi. There was a slight disdain on the corners of Tingyi's lips, but her eyes were sharp. She looked back at Baicao, and said slowly, "Last night, you were deliberately drunk, deliberately approaching Brother Chuyuan, and intentionally making Brother Chuyuan feel uncomfortable. Not to pick you up, right?" "What?" Mei Ling was shocked, the way she looked at Baicao suddenly changed. "Tingyi, don't talk nonsense, Baicao is not that kind of person!" Xiaoying said immediately after rushing over to stand beside Baicao. "Oh?" Tingyi smiled, and said calmly, "Then what kind of person is she? Xiaoying, from the beginning, I didn't like Baicao. Do you want to know why?" "..." Xiaoying looked at Tingyi, then at Baicao, and said awkwardly, "Why...why?" "Because she's too ambitious, and she's too good at pretending." Tingyi looked at Baicao lightly, and said, "At that time, she just entered the Songbai Gymnasium, and she behaved silently and well-behaved. But just because Ruobai didn't choose her, and If she chose Xiuqin to participate in the track gymnasium challenge, she would get angry in public, question Ruobai, and attack Xiuqin. In her heart, she has no sense of team superiority at all, only whether she can participate." Baicao bit her lip. "That's because..." Xiaoying wanted to explain. "Then, she fell in love with Brother Chuyuan secretly," Tingyi interrupted Xiaoying, "She finds all kinds of excuses to go to Brother Chuyuan every day, and even, she doesn't hesitate to get a lot of bruises on her body during training. Let the kind-hearted brother Chuyuan help her with medicine every day." Many memories from three years ago flashed through Xiaoying's mind. She looked at Baicao stupidly, opened her mouth, and her eyes became dull. "I didn't, I didn't hurt myself on purpose, I didn't make excuses on purpose." The cold air gushed out from his body, and Baicao's body shivered slightly. Tingyi continued sarcastically: "She still uses Ruobai. In order to make Ruobai more willing to train with her, she does not hesitate to use Ruobai's feelings to associate with Ruobai..." "I don't!" Baicao is really in a hurry! She can bear any kind of slander, but Ruobai can't! "You didn't?" Tingyi stared at her, and took a step closer, "I saw you and Ruobai at the night market that night?" "It's me and Senior Brother Ruobai, but we didn't..." "What I don't understand is," Tingyi said coldly, "Qi Baicao, since you have a crush on brother Chuyuan and are dating Ruobai, why are you teasing my brother?" tease? ! Senior Ting Hao? ! It exploded like lightning in the room! Mei Ling and Xiaoying stared at Baicao in disbelief, even Lin Feng and Guangya were stunned. "I didn't!" Baicao clenched her fists. "That day, I saw it with my own eyes. You deliberately knocked my brother to the ground, lay on top of him, and kissed him. Could it be that I was wrong?" "You..." Baicao was trembling all over, never had she hated herself so much for her clumsy speech. "I didn't mean to, I was not careful..." "Hehe, it wasn't intentional," Tingyi smiled disdainfully, "So many were not intentional, so many were careless, so you didn't mean to get drunk last night, and it wasn't intentional that you designed Brother Chuyuan to hug you Yes, right? You explained it very well!" "..." Baicao stood there dumbfounded, her trembling turned into a deeper cold. "Okay, even if I believe you, I believe you didn't do it on purpose." Tingyi took a deep breath, paused, and said, "I just ask you one thing, I hope you can answer me honestly!" Tingyi's voice was icy: "Are you -- are you secretly in love with Brother Chuyuan?" The room was dead silent. Not breathing at all, Xiaoying was extremely nervous, Mei Ling, Lin Feng, and Guangya looked at Tingyi and Baicao in front of them like wood carvings. "If this question is difficult to answer, then let me ask you a simple one," Tingyi raised her eyebrows, looked at Baicao and said, "Can I ask you—from now on, put away your shameless methods, Don't pester Brother Chuyuan again!" "Tingyi," Lin Feng said aloud, "We are all teammates." "Teammate? Heh, I don't dare to call someone who always wants to grab my boyfriend and be my teammate." Tingyi smiled lightly and looked at Baicao, "Why, can't it be done? I still have to continue pestering Chu in the future. Brother Yuan?" that look... As in a cold dream, Baicao could see Tingyi's disgusted and disdainful eyes, Xiaoying's shock, Mei Ling's shock and suspicion, Lin Feng's worry, and Guangya's nervousness.She was cold all over, and only by clenching her fists could she restrain her body from shaking. "...I like Senior Brother Chuyuan." Amidst the chaotic roar in her head, her voice squeezed out of her throat.Yes, she likes Senior Brother Chuyuan.Whether it was the pungent smell of medicinal oil when Chuyuan rubbed her bruises in the log cabin three years ago, or the strawberry that Chuyuan helped her comb her hair and tied up before the challenge match with Xianwu Daoguan. Hair ring…… When Chuyuan was in the United States, she stood in front of the counter of the stationery store and bought the pen with the change she had saved so hard... Chuyuan has returned to China, the first time she saw him in the practice hall... Opening the locker, she saw that red strawberry hair clip that she had liked for a long time but was reluctant to buy... "I'm sorry, I can't promise you," Baicao raised her head to look at Tingyi, she bit her lip, her eyes were surprisingly bright, "I like Senior Brother Chuyuan." Xiaoying suddenly turned pale. Tingyi's eyes changed, she stared at Baicao for a while, then suddenly smiled again, the smile was as cold as broken ice, and said: "Very well, you finally stopped pretending. But, at the moment when you officially declared war on me , what I must tell you is—” The light flows. A brilliant diamond ring shone between Tingyi's fingers. "──I am brother Chuyuan's fiancée, and you, Qi Baicao, are a despicable third party." The atmosphere during the training was so weird that Coach Shen Ning had to stop the practice twice and ordered everyone not to sleepwalk.Without Ruobai, Baicao still trained alone. During the break, Xiaoying did not sit over and talk to her as usual. Kou Zhen and the others noticed the abnormal silence of the girls. "You're so quiet today, I'm really not used to it." Yifeng stretched out, glanced at Baicao who was sitting alone in the corner, then looked at Xiaoying who was silent for the first time, and asked, "Have you had a fight with Baicao? " "Shut up! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb." Xiaoying said angrily. As soon as the training was over, Xiaoying left the training hall like the wind, but still didn't say a word to Baicao.Baicao's heart sank, she cleaned in silence alone, Lin Feng patted her on the shoulder when she left.Guangya hesitated for a moment, squatted down, picked up a rag that Xiaoying usually used, and helped her wipe the mat together. "Although I don't understand what Tingyi said, I have lived with you for so many years, and I know what kind of person you are. You see, I have misunderstood you and didn't like you. But, always One day, people who know you will understand you." Guang Ya worriedly said: "Baicao, don't be too sad." The rag wiped the mat vigorously, and after a while, Baicao lowered her head and replied, "Yes." After finally cleaning the training hall, Guangya also left. Looking at the emptiness and no one around, Baicao stood blankly for a while, until the music from her mobile phone woke her up. "... white moonlight somewhere in my heart so bright but so cold ..." This is the mobile phone given to her by Senior Ting Hao, Baicao thought blankly, it should be returned to Senior Ting Hao, why did she forget it when she was at the airport?Yes, because Chu Yuan picked her up at that time, holding a heart-shaped pink sign on his chest, standing in such a conspicuous place. "... You are my unspeakable hurt want to forget can't help but think again ..." The music continued to play, and she took out her mobile phone from the backpack placed by the window, but it was not the bright smiling face of Senior Ting Hao that was jumping and flashing on it, but two words - "Chuyuan". "Is the training over?" A gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. "……Ok." "I'm in the hospital now, and I have to work in the ward for half a day today, and I can go back at night." "Ok." "Also, I have checked in all the hospitals and police stations, and there is no record of Ruobai's accident." Chuyuan said to her, "I will continue to look for Ruobai, it's too hot today, don't come out and run away again." .” When she heard that Ruobai was fine, she felt a little relieved. "Thank you, Senior Brother Chuyuan." The other end of the phone paused, and Chuyuan asked again: "Your side, are you okay?" "..." The dazzling diamond flashed in her mind, and her eyelashes trembled, not knowing how to answer. Without waiting for her voice, Chuyuan said, "I'll go find you when I go back at night, okay?" "……it is good." Back in the storage room, Tingyi was there. She had already showered and changed her clothes. She had long black hair and a long skirt with thin shoulders and white ink lotus flowers. She was pure and beautiful. Baicao was stunned. She shook the mobile phone in her hand, walked over, handed it to Tingyi, and said, "Senior Ting Hao lent it to me, please help me return it to him." Tingyi glanced at the phone, but didn't answer it. "Why don't you pay it back yourself?" Baicao was silent. She put her mobile phone on the partition of Tingyi's locker, saluted, and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you." Tingyi frowned, she picked up her bag, threw the mobile phone into it, turned around and left. "Please wait a moment." Baicao called to stop her. Tingyi turned around impatiently, saw Baicao took out a thick envelope in her hand, looked at her and said, "I should bear half of the cost of the dinner last night. I'm sorry, I was drunk at the time, so I didn't give it to you in time." "Ha," Tingyi laughed, "Are you going to give me money?" "yes." "Do you know how much it was in total last night?" "have no idea." "Okay, since you are so polite, I won't refuse." Tingyi stared at her and said a number coldly. Baicao was stunned for a few seconds, she lowered her head, counted out a stack from the envelope, counted out another stack, and then counted out a stack of banknotes, the thick envelope suddenly collapsed. "This is my part," Baicao returned the money to her with both hands, "I also put in the phone bill I used." Tingyi took it expressionlessly. She turned and left without even looking at Baicao. Songbai Gymnasium. Xiaoying was nowhere to be seen during lunch time. After lunch, Xiaoying, who always had to take a long nap, still seemed to be missing.Baicao felt uneasy, but Aunt Fan and Uncle Fan didn't care, saying that Xiaoying must have gone shopping to watch a movie, and told Baicao not to worry. Sit on the bunk. The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and Baicao stared blankly at Xiaoying's bed. She saw Xiaoying's pale face at that time, and she had been waiting for Xiaoying to question her like before.But Xiaoying didn't say a word to her, nor faced her, and she didn't even have a chance to explain. Waited a long time again. Baicao could no longer sit down. Then, let's continue to look for Senior Brother Ruobai.Baicao closed the door and decided to look for a few more places. "Chuyuan, someone is looking for you." In the duty room of the hospital, Chu Yuan was on the phone, Dr. Yao walked in and said, "Your girlfriend is getting more and more beautiful, go quickly, I will be on duty for you!" Hearing the reply in the microphone, Chu Yuan put down the phone.He followed Dr. Yao's line of sight, and Tingyi was standing in the corridor outside the duty room. "Doctor Yao, she is not my girlfriend." Standing up, Chu Yuan explained to him before walking out. "Ah?" Dr. Yao looked at his back, shook his head and said to himself, "Young man, girls are reserved, she must like you, otherwise she wouldn't come to you often." There were almost no pedestrians on the street, and the scorching sun seemed to have melted the ground, making it soft to step on.Covering the glare of the sun with the back of her hand, Baicao tried her best to distinguish every passerby who appeared, the air she breathed was hot, and her back was soaked with sweat. Every store, she went in to find. And each time, her hopes were dashed. Standing under the scorching sun, Baicao's eyes blushed, where did Ruobai go, and why she couldn't find it. Hospital. The end of the corridor. In the shady corner, the north-south wind blows through, and the heat of the summer heat dissipates a little. Holding on to the railing, Tingyi looked at the garden downstairs, and the suspender skirt in elegant ink and wash fluttered in the wind. She was silent for a while, and said, "Brother Chuyuan, you hurt me." "Tingyi..." Chuyuan frowned slightly, and he looked at her, and his many words finally turned into one sentence: "I'm sorry." "Brother Chuyuan, have you forgotten this ring?" The diamond shone on Tingyi's finger, "When my mother passed away, you promised me at her bedside that when you grow up, you will marry me to be your bride." "I was only eight years old at that time," Chuyuan said. "I was only five years old at that time, but I remember, I always remember," Tingyi said with a wry smile, "I also promised my mother that when I got married, I would wear this ring. So, I have always treasured it and waited for it. On the day I married you, you put it on for me with your own hands." The sun shines. Diamonds reflect brilliant light. Although it was many, many years ago, Chu Yuan still remembered that day when Aunt Fang, who had always loved him, was lying pale on the hospital bed.Outside the ward, his mother told him tearfully that Aunt Fang was going to a far, far place and would never come back again, so that Aunt Fang could go away with peace of mind. ... "...When I grow up, I will marry Xiaoting as your bride, okay?" On the hospital bed, Aunt Fang gently held his hand. "What is a bride?" "The bride is...you will take good care of Xiaoting, always take care of Xiaoting...accompany her...don't let her cry...don't let her be alone..." "Is it like this now?" He didn't quite understand when he was a child.Every time Aunt Fang goes abroad for competitions, Xiao Ting will be sent to Songbai Gymnasium. She is a very good child, and she follows him all day long, watching him practice without making trouble at all. "Well, like now." "Okay, I will marry Xiaoting as my bride," the little one nodded and said, "I will take care of her, not let her cry, and not let her be alone." Lying on the snow-white pillow, Aunt Fang weakly took off a ring from her hand. "...Xiaoting, this is a wedding gift from your mother...Remember, you are mother's daughter, and you will be a strong girl...Don't cry, be happy..." ... In the garden downstairs. The wooden benches were empty. Chu Yuan said with a shy voice: "I'm sorry, if I knew what a bride means at that time..." "You also told me this sentence," Tingyi said lightly, "it was when I was twelve years old. You told me that you should not decide your future life just because of childhood jokes. You said, many I can like any boy, let me forget the agreement at that time." The wind blows the ivy climbing on the balcony. "Do you still remember how I answered you back then?" Tingyi looked sideways at him, "I said, I like you, because my mother knew that I liked you, so I asked you to agree to marry me as a bride in the future .I like you, I want to marry you, I want to be your bride. Since you agreed, you must marry me!" Chu Yuan was silent. Staring at him, Tingyi smiled faintly: "There are many girls who like you. Since you were in junior high school, you have received countless plots. There are even girls who openly pursue you and show love to you. But, you have never accepted it. You allowed me to follow you, I know that although you don't like me that much, you are still ready to keep your promise." "I believe you will marry me..." Holding the railing tightly, Tingyi took a deep breath and said, "We have always gotten along very well. You don't hate me, do you? But, three years ago, Baicao came to Songbai Road She is as silent and dull as a piece of wood, you actually fall in love with her!" "What's so good about her!" "She's not pretty, she's not smart, she's not likable, she's taciturn, and she's not my opponent at all in Taekwondo. She's not even a little bit better than me," Tingyi's chest heaved violently, "And three years ago , you actually brought it up again because of her, making me forget that promise!" Chu Yuan silently looked at the garden downstairs. At the foot of the bench, there are green grasses poking out of the soil. From the tip of the lively grass, it seems that you can smell the delicate breath even from such a long distance. "She was only fourteen years old at that time, how could you really fall in love with a fourteen-year-old girl?" Tingyi took a deep breath, trying to restrain her emotions, "I beg you, leave her for a while, think carefully, Give me another chance." Holding Chuyuan's arm tightly, Tingyi said in a shy voice: "In three years, as long as I have time, I will fly to the United States to accompany you. I hope you can forget her and wake up. Brother Chuyuan, the most suitable I am your person, and the person who loves you the most is me, not her, not Qi Baicao!" There is wind blowing. The climbing vines on the balcony rustled. "Tingyi, you promised me." Chuyuan said quietly, "If after three years, I find that I still like her, if I really like her, then you can give up that childhood promise." Tingyi's face was pale. "I'm sorry," Chuyuan was silent for a moment, "Tingyi, I like her." "...".Tingyi was stiff all over, and she clutched his arm tightly. The wind blows in gusts. "Chuyuan, your phone number!" Doctor Yao's voice came from the hospital corridor. "Sorry." Taking Tingyi's hand away from his arm, Chuyuan nodded to her and turned to leave. "I regret it!" Tingyi gritted her teeth, she straightened her neck, and her beautiful ink skirt was blown violently by the wind.Looking at his back, she said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Chuyuan, since you promised to marry me as a bride back then, it doesn't matter, then of course I can go back on my word! I don't want to cancel the agreement, I want you to marry me , I want to hold an engagement ceremony right away!" It was getting dark. Baicao searched the streets, shops, and the places she and Ruobai had walked through over and over again.In the food stalls of the night market, a string of light bulbs were lit up, and the business in front of each stall was booming. The air was humid and hot, and her clothes were soaked in sweat. She walked quickly and her eyes anxiously searched for every figure. No. still none. nowhere... The night is getting darker. Baicao returned to the Pine Gym in silence. Opening the door, the room was pitch black, she didn't turn on the light, and washed her face in front of the sink.There was a faint moonlight outside the window, and the wind was blowing in, but the air was still hot and humid. She stood silently in a daze. Suddenly, she felt something was wrong, so she turned her head to look——on the bed. Xiaoying sat like a stone sculpture. "Xiaoying!" Baicao hurried to turn on the light. The light suddenly came on, and the room was bright.Xiaoying narrowed her eyes and covered them with the back of her hands, her body swayed, and Baicao smelled a smell of alcohol blowing towards her face. "Have you been drinking?" Baicao asked anxiously. Seeing that Xiaoying was not used to the light, she hurriedly turned off the headlight and replaced it with a soft desk lamp.After twisting a towel, Baicao supported the drunken Xiaoying, bent down and carefully wiped her face, and said nervously, "Where did you go to drink? Why do you want to drink? Was it forced by someone? Did you?" Where does it hurt?" "Go away!" Xiaoying pushed her away forcefully, her face flushed, her eyes stared at her unfocused: "I...I just drink, how about it! I like to drink! I want to drink! Why do you You can get drunk, but I can't get drunk! If you're drunk, let senior brother Chuyuan hug you, haha, why can't I get drunk! I want to get drunk too, and I want to go to senior brother Chuyuan!" "Xiaoying!" Not letting himself care about Xiaoying's words, Baicao stepped forward to support her again, trying to help her lie down.The feeling of being drunk is not good, she felt like her headache was about to burst last night. "Are you thirsty? I'll get you a glass of water." "I tell you to go away!" Xiaoying waved her arm fiercely, and shouted at her angrily: "Qi Baicao! I tell you! I want to break up with you! I will never recognize you as my friend again Go! Get out! Stay away from me!" "Xiaoying..." Pushed by her and nearly falling, Baicao looked at Xiaoying with a pale face. "Qi Baicao! What Tingyi said is true, isn't it!" Xiaoying stood up staggeringly, approached her with a swaying body, glared at her, and shouted, "You've been pretending! In fact, you are a bad person Isn’t that right! Haha, when I was young, apart from Senior Brother Chuyuan, I admired Sister Tingyi the most, but because of you, I began to hate Tingyi!” "I like you, Baicao! I have done so much for you! Because you are my good friend! For you, I can do anything! But...but...you lied to me!" "Xiaoying..." The eardrums roared, and Baicao's body felt cold. "You have so many bad intentions! You use Senior Brother Ruobai! To seduce Senior Ting Hao! It's okay! You are my good friend! Even if you have any shortcomings, I support you! I will still support you! But, why do you still want to?" Go and provoke Senior Brother Chuyuan!" Grabbing her by the shoulders and shaking her vigorously, Xiaoying suddenly burst into tears. She cried hoarsely, tears streaming down her face. "Don't you know! I like Senior Brother Chuyuan! I've liked Senior Brother Chuyuan since I was a child!" She cried so hard that her whole body was trembling, Xiaoying shook her shoulders angrily, "Why do you want to provoke Chuyuan?" Brother! Isn’t it enough for you to have Brother Ruobai? I hate you! Baicao! I hate you! I shouldn’t have brought you into Songbai gymnasium in the first place!” "..." Her heart seemed to be pierced severely by something, and she shook it vigorously, Baicao's face was pale, and her whole body was so cold that she wanted to shiver.It's not the first time she has been hated by people. Since she was a child, there have been many people who hated her, but, why, she will be in pain...so painful... "What's that on your face!" Drunkenly staring, Xiaoying swayed close to her face, reached out to touch it, looked with difficulty, and suddenly laughed loudly: "You're crying! Qi Baicao, aren't you Wooden people! You can cry! Why are you crying! Haha, say, why are you crying! It should be me who is crying, isn’t it?! My best friend stole my favorite boy! The one who is crying should be It's me!" Hospital. Tranquil hallway. After the ward round, many patients had already fallen asleep, Chu Yuan walked back to the doctor's duty room.There was an envelope in his pocket, thick and bulging, and his fingers touched it, frowning. ... "Your money." On the terrace, Tingyi handed him an envelope, which contained a thick stack of brand new banknotes. He asked puzzledly, "This is?" "Baicao gave me the money for the dinner last night." Tingyi seemed to have calmed down, "Of course I will return the part you gave me for her." "You..." He sighed silently, "You know her financial situation, how can you accept her money?" "Why not?" Tingyi smiled slightly. "It's a party held in my name and her name, and it's only natural that she bears half of the expenses." "It's not fair to her that you choose such an expensive hotel, which is far beyond what ordinary people can afford." He frowned. "Fair?" Tingyi smiled again, "There is no fairness in this world. I have liked you for so many years, and she will take you away for no reason. Is it fair? You are my boyfriend, but you insist on paying for her." Is money fair to me? Hehe, she is as humble as a weed, but she wants to compete with me wishfully, and I want to show her what fairness is!" "Tingyi..." "Don't worry, I will protect her self-esteem, and I will not let her know that you have paid for the party for her." Tingyi's eyes were cold, but her smile was extremely gentle, "All those things you did for her I won't tell her everything I've done." He looked at her silently. "Brother Chuyuan, if you want to stay by your side, you must become unscrupulous..." Tingyi straightened her neck and said with dark eyes, "I will. I will eradicate her. I am not afraid that you will hate me , because you forced me to become like this." ... The phone vibrated suddenly. In the corridor, Chuyuan closed his eyes, stabilized his mind, connected to the mobile phone, and a hurried voice came from his ear: "Chuyuan, I just found the names of the patients you asked me to check! This morning , Our hospital has newly admitted..." Faint moonlight poured in from the window. Xiaoying cried and slipped to the ground, waving her arms, Baicao couldn't hear what she was crying.Baicao struggled to help Xiaoying onto the bed, made her lie down with a little effort, twisted a new towel, and carefully wiped the tears and sweat from her face. "let me go!" Lying on the pillow, Xiaoying struggled, drunkenly pushing and shoving Baicao.Suddenly, her complexion changed, and she slumped to the side of the bed──"Wow──" Xiaoying vomited violently. The room was filled with the sour smell of filth, and Baicao nervously patted Xiaoying's back until she finished vomiting, and helped her lie back on the pillow.Bring warm water to rinse her mouth, wipe off the tears and sweat on her face again, and Baicao cleans the ground to make the air fresh again. When I returned to Xiaoying's bedside. She froze. Xiaoying didn't fall asleep, but was staring blankly at the ceiling.Hearing her footsteps, Xiaoying turned her head on the pillow blankly and looked at her. "Baicao..." murmuring, Xiaoying looked at her palely. "...you're drunk, get a good night's sleep." Baicao said in a low voice, pulling the quilt over and gently laying it on Xiaoying's body. "I just...did I..." The headache was splitting, but Xiaoying's eyes widened due to fear, "...did I say a lot of bad things..." I was stunned. Baicao shook her head: "No." "Don't lie to me, whoops," Xiaoying closed her eyes in pain while holding her head that was in severe pain, "I remember, what I said just now was too much... I'm sorry... Baicao, those words are not my real words. What I wanted to say...you forgot, okay..." "...Okay." The eyelashes were tightly closed, Xiaoying lay pale, she was silent for a long time, tears flowed down again suddenly, "Baicao, you lied to me again..." "I know, you can't forget what I said... because what I said was really too much... Baicao... You cried just now, didn't you..." "I've never seen you cry..." "You don't seem to cry under any circumstances..." "But... I just scolded you to tears..." On the pillow, Xiaoying took a trembling breath, covered her swollen eyes with the back of her hands, forced a smile, and said, "...it's embarrassing...I've always hated that kind of thing. For a boy, a good friend would Turning against each other and speaking viciously at each other... But, I actually said such vicious things to you..." "Xiaoying." Looking at Xiaoying who was crying, Baicao froze all over. She gently stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Xiaoying, but she didn't dare, and curled her fingers back. "sorry, I do not know……" What Xiaoying said was right, Baicao thought blankly, feeling a dull pain in her heart.She is not worthy to be Xiaoying's good friend. Xiaoying likes Chuyuan, but she doesn't realize it. It was she who hurt Xiaoying. Xiaoying said that she had never seen her cry.How had she ever seen Xiaoying cry?It was her who made Xiaoying cry so sad... "No, it's not your fault." Putting down her hand covering her eyes, Xiaoying sniffed, and said embarrassedly, "Look, you're a wooden man, and you've always been much slower to shoot these things. I've never followed You said, how do you know that I like Senior Brother Chuyuan?" Baicao looked at her. "Me," Xiaoying said with a smile, looking at the ceiling, "I actually look quite similar to Chuwei. She likes Taekwondo because of Senior Tinghao, and I because of Senior Brother Chuyuan." "Brother Chuyuan is so nice and patient with everyone. He even bought me ice cream to eat. When I was young, I got into trouble and my mother chased and beat me all over the gym. I just need to run behind Senior Brother Chuyuan. Senior Brother Chuyuan will protect me. Sometimes, I secretly follow Brother Chuyuan and Sister Tingyi, and Sister Tingyi doesn't like me following, Senior Brother Chuyuan will take me to play together." “后来，初原师兄越长越帅，不，不是帅，是挺拔、俊雅、眉目如画，就像神话里的仙人少年，有珠玉的光芒，比我最痴迷的漫画书里的美少年还要美型。” “我喜欢初原师兄……”晓萤苦涩地笑，“可是，我不敢跟他说。因为我知道他不会喜欢我，他喜欢像婷宜那样的女孩子，美丽、温柔、大方、优秀，他怎么可能会喜欢像野丫头一样，整天疯疯癫癫，又懒又不漂亮的我……” 百草默默地听着。 “所以，我对你生气，真的是毫无道理。”晓萤苦笑，缓缓闭上眼睛，“初原师兄喜欢你，我应该感到高兴才对……他能跟你在一起……能跟你在一起……我也是很开心的……” 喃喃自语着，疲倦使晓萤的声音变得含糊不清：“是我错了……我为什么会以为……初原师兄一定会喜欢婷宜呢……” if…… 如果她曾经鼓起勇气…… if…… 月光静谧。 晓萤沉沉地睡着了，脸上还残余着泪痕，她翻向一边，睡得像个孩子。为她盖好凉被，百草呆呆地坐在床边，她脑中一片空白，无法思考，一连串的事情，身体仿佛被千钧的重力压着，透不过气。 For a long time. 窗外的那排白杨树下，月光胧出一个淡淡的影子，百草呆呆地望着，那影子一直站在那里，她望着望着，渐渐睁大眼睛──她霍然起身！ 冲过去打开门，她向那个影子冲去── “百草，初原的电话！”范婶的声音从隔壁屋喊出来，“说是什么，找到若白了……” No! 她不用再去接电话！ 月光中，百草向白杨树飞奔而去！她看到了，她已经看到了！树影下，那淡淡站立的人影，风声在耳边呼啸，浑身的血液都冲上耳膜，她飞奔过去，用尽全身的力量抱住那个人影！
