Chapter 12 chapter Ten

In the middle of the night, Wang Liangyi was woken up by the sound of the computer beeping. She got up, walked out of the living room, and saw Guo Hongchuan wearing a sweater, shorts, and flip-flops, playing computer games with one leg in his arms.Annoyed, she walked behind him and unplugged the computer. The computer screen was pitch black, and Guo Hongchuan was stunned for half a second, then turned around and saw Wang Liangyi who was furious. He was about to say something, but she said quickly: "How many times have I told you? Can't you turn off the sound when you are playing on the computer?"

"I forgot." He said with a smile. "Forgot? It's easy for you to forget! He has been working on the manuscript all day, and just fell asleep, and he was woken up by you! Can't you imagine it for others?" "Okay. Okay." Apologizing, he bent down to plug it back in and continued playing his computer game. A few seconds later, he suddenly heard Wang Liangyi's scream.He turned around and saw her coming out of the kitchen. "What's the matter?" he asked hastily. "Who ate my cookie?" "What biscuits?" he asked inexplicably.

"The bag of macaroons I bought at Marks & Spencer!" she said excitedly. "The bag of macaroons?" he remembered. "Have you seen it? Where?" "I just felt hungry and ate." "You ate my biscuits!" She walked to him, only to find that the chair he was sitting on was full of crumbs.Next to the computer, there are three bottles of beer. "Why did you eat my biscuit?" she asked him with her hips akimbo. He murmured, "I didn't know it was yours." "The things in this room are not mine, but whose? When did you buy a pack of biscuits and a bottle of beer?"

"I'll give it back to you tomorrow, okay?" "I want to eat it now! That bag of biscuits is for me to eat when I'm hungry in the middle of the night! That's my favorite macaroon, and you eat them all?" She was so angry that she wanted to cry. "It's just a bag of biscuits, you don't need to lose your temper like this." He said while playing with the computer. Wang Liangyi was so angry that she blocked the computer screen with her body and said, "Now it's my fault?" "It's no use getting angry now that I've eaten," he said.

"That's how you are! Take everything for granted! It doesn't matter!" "Where did you drag it?" "You play on the computer all day, don't you have to work?" "There is no need to start work for a while." "Can't you be more positive?" "No one asked me to take pictures, so should I volunteer?" "That's what you are! I don't know how I put up with you!" she said as she took out the vacuum cleaner and sucked the crumbs off the floor in front of him. "Did you take the trash out?" she asked.

Guo Hongchuan couldn't hear the rumble of the vacuum cleaner. "what?" She turned off the vacuum cleaner and asked, "Did you take the trash out?" "I'm going now." He stood up and said. She threw down the vacuum cleaner and said, "No need." She went to the kitchen, tied up the garbage bag, put it outside, and returned to the bed resentfully. Until late at night, she was lying on the bed, only hearing the gurgling in her stomach and Guo Hongchuan's snoring beside her.She stared despondently at the ceiling, waiting helplessly for sleep to drift in.

The next day, Wang Liangyi complained to Xu Jieyuan while drinking coffee at Starbucks, and Xu Jieyuan couldn't help laughing. "You're arguing over a bag of cookies?" "We didn't quarrel. I can't quarrel with him. He doesn't care about anything. He doesn't care about anything. To put it nicely, it's chic, but to put it badly, it's foolish." "Didn't you just like him at the beginning?" "He was not what he is now." "I think he's always been like this. It's you who changed." "I haven't changed, it's because he hasn't improved. I've paid the rent for the past year, and the family's expenses are also mine. He hasn't washed a single dish, and he never helps with housework. I just sleep with him. Filipino maid!" Wang Liangyi became angrier as she spoke.

Xu Jieyuan looked at her fixedly and said: "It seems that you brought him home at the beginning." Wang Liangyi pouted: "You don't need to remind me." Two years ago, she was an assistant editor of a women's magazine, and Guo Hongchuan was a photographer's assistant.The first time she saw him, she was impressed.His never-clean shaven face, smiling eyes, hooked nose and slightly cruel mouth, as well as his focused expression while working, all fascinated her. At that time, they often chatted between shoots. He would study the camera with her and teach her the techniques of taking pictures.

She didn't like men wearing sandals, but Guo Hongchuan looked very stylish in sandals.He likes to wear those cheap, black plastic flip-flops, showing ten lovely toes, as if he was going to the beach. "This kind of plastic sandals is not good for the health of the soles of the feet." One day, she told him. "Never mind it! As long as it's comfortable, I also wear these sandals when I walk the Great Wall." "Is it really comfortable? Let me try it." Guo Hongchuan took off a sandal for Wang Liangyi.She put on the sandal that still had his body temperature on her foot. The shoe was very big, like a child wearing an adult's shoe.

"Your feet are really big." Guo Hongchuan smiled and said, "I heard that people with big feet are lazy." Wang Liangyi looked at the sandals on her feet and said: "I'm not used to wearing flip-flops." "I've been used to it since I was a child. When I put on this kind of shoes, when I looked down at my feet, I just saw two 'people'. I felt like I was being human, human!" Wang Liangyi chuckled: "Is this how you know you're a human being?" "Well. Then I can remind myself to be down-to-earth and not too idealistic."

"Isn't it great to have ideals?" "Women would find these things impractical." "A life without ideals is simply very poor." She smiled at him. The next day, Wang Liangyi went to buy a pair of flip-flops.However, after all, she couldn't get used to wearing this kind of shoes, and as a result, the area between the toe and the second toe was red and swollen.A few days later, she had to buy a pair with cross straps.Putting on these sandals, she felt like she was wandering, more like Guo Hongchuan. When a person falls in love with another person, he will start to imitate the other person. The tone of speech becomes more and more similar, and the taste and temperament become closer and closer. Gradually, he forgets that he is imitating and thinks that he is like this. Wang Liangyi felt that her mouth also began to have a slightly cruel expression. One night, the filming work did not end until late at night. When she and Guo Hongchuan walked out of the factory building where the studio was located, a BMW motorcycle came at high speed and stopped abruptly in front of them.The driver was a woman with long straight hair and a bright red helmet, smiling back at Guo Hongchuan.Guo Hongchuan put on his helmet, sat in the car, hugged the woman's waist, and said to Wang Liangyi: "goodbye." The motorcycle drove away from her.She had inquired a long time ago that Guo Hongchuan had a live-in girlfriend who was a model and could drive a motorcycle. It's cool for a woman to drive a motorcycle!Not to mention a beautiful and slender woman?Why did she rob others?Just now, she noticed that the woman was wearing a pair of black sneakers. She has her own style and doesn't need to wear flip-flop sandals.She lowered her head, looked at her ten toes, and suddenly felt a little humble. "I want to learn how to ride a motorcycle." She said when eating Italian food with Xu Jieyuan the next day. Xu Jieyuan's eyes widened: "It's very dangerous!" "Shall we go study together?" "Fu Jiehao won't let me learn. Why do you suddenly want to learn motorcycles?" Wang Liangyi turned over a page of a magazine she just bought, pointed to a model in a three-point swimsuit, and asked Xu Jieyuan: "Do you think she is pretty?" "Her legs are very long and beautiful. Are they forty-four inches?" Wang Liangyi said uninterestedly: "You don't have to praise her so much. She is Guo Hongchuan's girlfriend, named Ye Jiayu." "No wonder." Xu Jieyuan smiled and said, "Is it because of her that you learned how to ride a motorcycle?" "How do I compare to her?" "Shall I be honest?" "Go ahead." "Inner beauty is also very important." "Hmph! Nonsense!" Holding the magazine in her hands, she shook her head and said, "I probably won't have my turn in this life. Of course men would rather be surrounded by forty-four-inch legs than thirty-nine-inch ones." "Aren't your legs thirty-seven inches long?" Wang Liangyi said angrily: "Don't be so cruel, okay? Sometimes I am thirty-nine inches, my waist is high!" "Is Guo Hongchuan really as good as you say?" Wang Liangyi raised her eyebrows and said, "My vision has always been good. He is very talented and will definitely become a first-class photographer in the future." "Will the photographer be very romantic?" "He is not." "how do you know?" "I can see that." Xu Jieyuan smiled: "You are really fascinated by him. It was unimaginable before that a strong woman like you would have a crush on someone else. Does he know?" "If you like someone, you don't need to let him know, lest he be complacent." However, she was a little sad: "It doesn't matter whether he knows it or not, it's impossible for us anyway." "Because the legs are not long enough?" "There is a law called first come first served." "Love is often against the laws." Wang Liangyi suddenly felt emotional, with tears in his eyes, and said, "Why doesn't he belong to me?" Xu Jieyuan sighed and said: "What a stupid question." She laughed at herself and said, "Yes, what I said was so childish, as if I had never seen the world before." "Are you really going to learn how to ride a motorcycle?" Xu Jieyuan asked. Wang Liangyi said blankly, "I haven't decided yet." One day half a year later, she and Guo Hongchuan were taking a series of fashion photos in the studio.The door of the studio suddenly opened with a bang, and Ye Jiayu came in with a black nylon suitcase in his arms, and threw the suitcase heavily in front of Guo Hongchuan. "Guo Hongchuan, this is something you put in my house." Ye Jiayu said angrily. Under everyone's surprised eyes, she turned around calmly and left the studio. Guo Hongchuan pushed the suitcase aside in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, let's continue." The photo shoot lasted until midnight that day, the photographer and model left, leaving Guo Hongchuan to pack his things. "Did you break up?" Wang Liangyi asked. Guo Hongchuan smiled and said, "It should be counted?" "Do you have somewhere to sleep tonight?" "I could sleep here," he said. Without saying a word, she walked over to drag his suitcase, walked ahead, and said, "Come to my house." From that day on, Guo Hongchuan lived in her home.Since then, her family has added a pair of flip-flop sandals and a pair of flip-flops. The night after they lived together, Guo Hongchuan leaned on the sofa, Wang Liangyi's head rested happily on his lap, and his hands hooked around his neck. "Why did you break up with her?" she asked. "Maybe she's disappointed in me." "What did you do to disappoint her?" she said as she poked his finger at the root of his hair. "I don't need to do anything, maybe she used to beautify me too much." "beautify?" "Women are like this. When they like a man, they will beautify him in their hearts. He is only worth 70 cents. She will think he is worth 120 cents. After the two of them lived together, she discovered that he was also worth 70 cents. He is just a mortal, not what she imagined. At this moment, he is only worth fifty cents in her heart." "I'm not that kind of woman." "Women are all similar, it's nature." "You will know in the future." She lifted her legs up as she spoke, pouted and asked him: "Are my legs short?" "Not short," he said. She sighed, and said with some regret: "Thirty-nine and a half inches, it's too short." Then, she sat up, wrapped her legs around him, and bit his ear with a smile. Guo Hongchuan didn't lie, people with big feet are really lazy.After moving in, he never helped with housework.When she was mopping the floor, the only thing he did was lift his feet up and continue playing with the computer.All his money was spent on cameras and magazines.Although he wears flip-flops at home every day, he is not down-to-earth at all. He has always been willing to work as a photography assistant and goes to the art school to teach a photography class every week. "The problem is not that he ate my biscuits, but that he disappointed me too much." She told Xu Jieyuan. At half past eleven, the clerks in Starbucks lined up and shouted in unison: "Last Order!" "Let's go, the Last Order is here." Wang Liangyi put down the coffee cup in her hand and stood up melancholy. Guo Hongchuan hasn't come back yet, she curled up on the bed, it's hard to describe that kind of indifference.You love someone very much, but when all the disappointments have accumulated to a critical point, even love can no longer be mentioned. When Guo Hongchuan came back, she pretended to be asleep.As always, he made a lot of noise, not caring if it woke her up. Finally, he climbed onto the bed and fell asleep with his back to her. The two of them didn't speak a word. Then one night, Wang Liangyi went to a dinner at the middle school reunion. After drinking, Fu Jiehao talked loudly and constantly criticized the quality of college students.She couldn't contain herself and said: "Not all college students are like that." Fu Jiehao pointed at her and asked, "Liangyi, how much money do you make a month?" Then, with a mocking look, he said, "It's less than 15,000, right? The clerks in my store only need to work hard. One point, I earn more than this amount every month!" "There is still one thing called ideal in this world!" She said bitterly. She was angry with Xu Jieyuan, Xu Jieyuan must have told Fu Jiehao how much money she made every month.She was angry with Fu Jiehao, he was a poor fellow with low self-esteem and arrogance.She was angry with herself and also with Guo Hongchuan, why didn't he grow up a bit and earn some face for her? She suffocated and went home.The door opened, and she saw Guo Hongchuan playing with a newly bought camera. "You bought a camera again?" Guo Hongchuan said excitedly: "This Voigtlander Bessa-T is an old-fashioned German camera, which has just been purchased by a Japanese company. Look at how exquisite its body and craftsmanship are!" "How much?" she asked, suppressing her anger. "It's only six thousand yuan." "That's almost half a month's salary of mine, you really know how to spend money!" "It's worth the money. It can also be used with a Leica M camera lens." Wang Liangyi threw out his black nylon suitcase without a word, rushed into the bedroom, opened the drawer, and threw Guo Hongchuan's clothes and underwear into the suitcase.Then she ran into the bathroom and threw all his things into that box: his towels, his toothbrush, his razor. "What are you doing? Are you crazy?" Guo Hongchuan squatted on the ground to pick up his things. Wang Liangyi shouted hysterically: "I've had enough of you! You go!" He stood in embarrassment.She saw a plastic bag on the coffee table, she picked up the plastic bag, and threw that plastic bag into the suitcase.The contents of the plastic bag fell to the ground, two packs of macaroons from Marks & Spencer, and she was stunned. "Go buy it for you today," he said. She picked up two packs of biscuits, put them aside, closed the suitcase, and said to Guo Hongchuan, "Thank you for the biscuits, goodbye." Guo Hongchuan lifted his mouth with a slightly cruel expression, and left with his suitcase, leaving behind only a pair of flip flops. She doesn't have to worry about him, maybe, soon another woman will take him in.She was too tired, too tired to talk about ideals. At night, when the storm was raging outside, her knees ached faintly, which was caused by falling from the bike while learning to ride a motorcycle before living with Guo Hongchuan.Whenever it rains, the knee pain will attack, as if reminding her that she once loved a man so unrepentantly.
