Planetary revolution

Chapter 70 Rainstorm

After get off work hours, the distant sky is cloudy.

Xia Xingxing walked on the road against the howling wind, his face was not in a hurry like the pedestrians on the road, but his thin body was like a thin bamboo swaying in the wind, as if it would be broken by the coming wind and rain in the next second .

Huo Jingshi honked the horn behind him: "Hurry up and get in the car."

Xia Xingxing turned a deaf ear as usual.

Seeing that the dark clouds like splashed ink were about to press down on the sky, Huo Jingshi concealed his anger and helplessness, so he had no choice but to get out of the car with an umbrella and follow behind him.

"Do you want to get caught in the rain and catch a cold?" The man said while stuffing the umbrella in Xia Xing's hand.

"Mr. Huo's tricks are too old-fashioned." This kind of involvement has two, Xia Xingxing mocked, next time, should he ask him to return the favor?

He didn't want to have any more contact with Huo Jingshi, and refused: "I will buy an umbrella myself later."

"You won't," Huo Jingshi looked deeply into his eyes and came to a firm conclusion.

"Is it so difficult to even take one of my umbrellas?"

Huo Jingshi knew him too well, Xia Xingxing would never buy an umbrella in a business district where the consumption level was ten times higher than that of this city.

What's more, it is going to rain now, and the merchants have to sit on the floor and bid, so Xia Xingxing would rather go home in the rain.

Xia Xingxing felt that Huo Jingshi had been following him for a long time, and not only did he not give up, but he also had a posture of getting more and more courageous as he became more and more frustrated. I don't know where he got his confidence and patience.

He made up his mind to take advantage of today to speak clearly: "It's difficult, I don't want to take anything from you, and I don't want to get involved with you again. Why do you follow me every day like this? It's boring."

"It's quite boring." Huo Jingshi glanced at the menacing dark clouds and the lightning that split half of the sky, and hooked the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, as if saying to him or to himself: "But if I don't follow You, then there is really no possibility at all.”

He raised his pitch-black phoenix eyes, as if he wanted to see through the depths of Xia Xingxing's heart: "Even if I know it's impossible now, I can't do anything."

Xia Xingxing didn't expect Huo Jingshi to be so stubborn, so he calmed down and said deliberately: "Mr. Huo, did you do it on purpose?"

Huo Jingshi was puzzled: "What?"

"Specially let me also experience how you felt ten years ago."

He smiled lightly, with a soft voice, but what he said was like a knife piercing into people's hearts: "It turns out that this is how it feels to be entangled by someone you don't like. No wonder you...I understood it at the time, to be honest Now these tricks are all methods you deliberately came up with to torture me, right?"

"Repay the body in the same way as the other?"

"Oh no, you probably didn't come up with it," he tilted his head and smiled, "Hu Yi or He Yu?"

Huo Jingshi's ink-like pupils became darker and darker, and he couldn't believe that the young man in front of him could speak hurtful words so freely and skillfully.

He still doesn't know that Xia Xingxing has such sharp teeth that he kills without blood.

"torture?"

The man's voice was cold.

"My existence is a kind of torture to you?"

Xia Xingxing blinked: "Isn't it?"

"As long as I see you, I will remember what kind of person I used to be, a person who stalks others with a faceless face, and is extremely disgusted and disgusted by others."

His voice floated very lightly in the wind and rain: "Why do you have to remind me all the time?"

"Let me go, I don't want to think about this anymore."

Seeing that the pouring rain was about to pour over, the autumn leaves danced wildly on the ground, and the thunder rumbled.

After a long time, Huo Jingshi's voice was hoarse: "I'm sorry."

The man's thin lips were pursed into an extremely tight line, and the bean-sized raindrops finally fell from the sky. He opened the big black umbrella and stuffed it into Xia Xingxing's hand: "You take the umbrella."

Xia Xingxing looked at the other party's shoulders soaked by the rain and the loss and dead silence in his eyes that even the heavy rain could not dilute, and forced himself to ignore the slight strangeness welling up in his heart. The husband promised me that he would never appear in front of me again, so I took the umbrella back."

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the sky is getting darker and darker, the light is dim and weak, there are no pedestrians on the street, and the sound of wind and rain is like the roaring and neighing of beasts.

Huo Jingshi's phoenix eyes narrowed, and his tone was cold and angry: "Are you threatening me?"

Who would have thought that such a well-behaved young man would not hesitate to sacrifice his own body in exchange for a chance to break up with him after taking advantage of others' weaknesses.

Standing in the heavy rain, Xia Xingxing's thin back was chilled by the wind, and the lines of his neck looked graceful and slender in the swaying wind and rain, but he was also stubborn and unyielding. He murmured softly, "I can't help it."

Huo Jingshi's nose was high and his lips were thin, his eyes were deep, and the rain ran down his eyelashes to the tip of his nose. He asked in a hoarse voice, "You really hate me so much?"

So hated that he would not hesitate to use his own body as a condition, so that he would never be entangled in the future?

Xia Xingxing didn't answer, and impatiently asked in a cold voice: "Mr. Huo, have you made up your mind?"

The two stood facing each other in the rain, neither of them would admit defeat first.

"Go back," Huo Jingshi's throat slipped, after all, he let go of his hand and took a step back.

Leaving the range protected by the umbrella, the bean-sized raindrops soaked his clothes unscrupulously, and the raging wind and rain almost swallowed him.

Huo Jingshi closed his eyes, hiding the sadness and pain that was almost overflowing from his eyes, and instructed: "Go back and take a hot bath."

He couldn't bear it, knowing that Xia Xingxing was really threatening him with his body, but he couldn't bear it either.

Xia Xingxing's body couldn't bear such exhaustion.

Xia Xingxing regarded him as agreeing to his terms, and suppressed the phrase "I'll support you back to the car", but in the end he didn't say anything, holding an umbrella by himself, without looking back, and disappeared into the torrential rain among.

The huge rain curtain seems to wash the bustling city clean, leaving no dust of the past.

Since that rainy day, Xia Xingxing has never met Huo Jingshi in the coffee shop or his tutor's place again.

When discussing the handsome male guest, the girls in the store felt sorry for each other, and asked Xia Xingxing: "Xing Xing, why doesn't the gentleman at table seven come to our store?"

Normally, the store manager would directly order Xia Xingxing to entertain him.

Xia Xingxing's movements of wiping the mug in his hand were like flowing clouds and flowing water, without stopping at all, he lowered his eyes and replied softly: "I probably figured it out."

"Huh? Figured out what?"

Xia Xingxing started to wipe the coffee machine again: "It's nothing."

Another girl asked, "Then will he come again in the future?"

Xia Xingxing's eyelashes trembled for a moment, and said, "No, he will never come again."

The voice was very soft, like a sigh of clouds in the sky.

His wish came true, but the peace he wanted didn't come. Xia Xingxing was always a little absent-minded during this time, and even his partner on duty noticed something was wrong.

When asked, he wouldn't say anything.

Obviously everything has settled down, but Xia Xingxing is more silent than before, with no ups and downs, and no expectations. Fortunately, the rhythm of life is proceeding steadily and orderly according to the plan and arrangement.

In addition to the panic and loss of being awakened in a dream at night, I will vaguely remember that there was a warm and firm embrace and a pair of arms full of security hugging him tightly.

Drive away the never-ending sense of falling and weightlessness for him.

He said softly in his ear, "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

The icy chill and deep loneliness struck in the darkness, Xia Xing raised his hand and touched the cold tears all over his face.

started again.

He can't sleep.

Sometimes I listen to the second hand of the old-fashioned wall clock running round and round, sometimes I listen to the sound of the rain to survive the long night, and sometimes I just open my eyes and look at the light of the sky.

To ward off the nightmare, he abandoned sleep, and sleep abandoned him.

Peace and tranquility deserted him too.
