Pretend to be straight

My drowsiness is like being withdrawn, and it's gone.

I licked my lips, waiting for Shi Jinghe to send me another message.

But 2 minutes passed, and there was no more movement from Shi Jing and his side.

I:?unbelievable.

I'm sure I'm not dazzled, what she sent was "distressed".

If you withdraw it, just withdraw it, I am still waiting for her to send me the words "sent wrong" again, but there is no follow-up.

No more.

I let out a breath, a little helpless and powerless.

What is there to withdraw from the word "distressed"?When a friend is hurt, isn't it normal to feel sorry for him?

I stared at the chat box with Shi Jinghe, waiting for her note to change to [the other party is typing...].

But another 2 minutes passed, and there was still no news of her.

I rubbed between my eyebrows, put my phone aside and went to take a shower.

When I was taking a shower, I was still thinking about whether Shi Jinghe would send me a message after I went out for a while.

But no, still no, I didn't wait until my hair was blown.

I don't know how I feel in my heart, I may be a little more disappointed.

Because... those two words really have nothing to undo.

I started to have a headache again, touched my forehead and pursed my lips and went into the bedroom to take medicine.

Because of the headache, I couldn't sleep well at first, but after the medicine took effect, I felt much better.

When I woke up the next day, I was woken up by a phone call, and it was only around nine in the morning. The caller was Meng Yisheng, and she just called me: "Zhizhi."

But it was very different from her previous tone. She was full of tears at the moment, with a strong nasal voice, and the original voice could hardly be heard.

This is not a good thing. I was a little confused at first, but now I am sober in an instant.

I sat up and quickly asked her: "What's the matter?" I was a little at a loss, "Don't cry first, don't cry first."

She was already sobbing, even hiccupped, but she didn't continue. I continued to ask her anxiously: "What's the matter? Yisheng, tell me."

Today is another day without sunshine, even when I look at the dark clouds outside the window, there are faint signs of rain.

On the phone, Meng Yisheng was still crying and called my name frequently, but she just didn't say anything else.

I planned to go directly to her house to find her later, so I took my mobile phone into the bathroom to wash up, and the mobile phone was turned on on speakerphone.

Meng Yisheng was still crying and had nothing else to say, just when my mouth was full of toothpaste foam, I finally heard her say something else, and this sentence shocked me so much.

"Strictly derailed."

After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath, and I could hear it clearly from here.

Harsh... Cheating? !

We have said before: Strict derailment is impossible, and it is less likely than strict coming out.

So now that Meng Yisheng said this, I froze on the spot and almost swallowed the toothpaste foam.

Harsh and impossible to cheat - this is almost everyone's evaluation after seeing him.

I finished brushing my tooth first, then interrupted Meng Yisheng's crying, and said to her, "Wait a minute, I'll drive over right away."

I thought for a moment, then asked her, "Where are you now?"

I just remembered when I was brushing my teeth, judging by the way she is crying now, she can't stay at home, the elders in the family love her so much, it's impossible to let her cry like this all the time.

Meng Yisheng intermittently said: "I, I am, under the community." She added, "I, I just sent him to work."

"Okay." I had already changed my clothes in the bedroom, and I thought for a while, "Well, Yisheng, you go to Pu Xin's first, is that okay?"

"Or should I pick you up in a car?"

After hanging up the phone with Meng Yisheng, I didn't have time to read the WeChat messages I received, so I called Pu Xin first.

Fortunately, she has to go to work today, and she is already in the office of her hotel.

After I explained the situation, Pu Xin really wanted to take the knife to Yan Yan's company to confront him face to face.

A little anxious, because harsh derailment is a situation that we never thought of.

I have been envious of Meng Yisheng's smooth life before, but it seems that now God has brought her a "severe" test.

It's really harsh.

I drove directly to Pu Xin's shop instead of picking up Meng Yisheng. Meng Yisheng said that she would take a taxi there, so I went to pick her up because I didn't want to bother her.

How can it be troublesome?Not at all, but she is now in a negative mood, and when I say this, she reacts a bit, and keeps saying that she is a troublesome person now.

The mood was affected so much early in the morning, and I always looked bad when I was driving.

I also really want to do what Pu Xin thinks, just pick up the knife and go to Yan Yan Company.

But of course it was just a thought.

When I arrived at Pu Xin's shop, my car had just parked and I hadn't taken off my seat belt when someone knocked on my way out.

It was Pu Xin, she patted on the car window to signal me to close the window.

"Zhizhi! Yisheng, she didn't come!"

I haven't reacted yet: "What?"

"Two minutes ago, Yisheng said that she was coming to my place. I have been waiting for her, but your car has arrived and she hasn't arrived yet. When I called, it showed that the phone was off."

……Oops.

Meng Yisheng probably didn't think about it, he didn't know where he went.

Since she was pregnant, she has hardly gone out alone, and every time she is accompanied by friends.

Yan Yan is busy with work, and if he spares time, the most he can do is cook her a meal.

When the two of them hang out together, it's like they haven't had it for a few months.

When I went to her house for dinner last time, wasn't it still so harmonious?

why?I could not understand.

The harsh derailment was really surprising, and I still haven't recovered from it.

At present, the more important thing to be solved is: how to find the lost Meng Yisheng.

Her phone was turned off and we couldn't reach her.

Pu Xin got into my car, and I drove the car out of the parking space.

He planned to go to the places Meng Yisheng liked before to see if he would meet her.

We went to the park, went to the cafe, and went to two places in a row. When Pu Xin and I became more and more anxious, we saw her at the dessert shop she often went to.

She was sitting by the window, and on the plate in front of her was a piece of strawberry cake that she had loved since she was pregnant.

The petits fours were very sweet, I tried it once before and never wanted to eat it again.

Meng Yisheng didn't move at the moment, her face was full of tears, she held a tissue in her hand but didn't wipe it, the tears fell on her clothes and the back of her hands.

There were strangers looking at her, and when we saw her, a girl stepped forward with a worried look on her face, but Meng Yisheng shook her head and said "it's okay", and the girl left with her companion .

Pu Xin and I walked in front of her and stopped. Meng Yisheng thought we were also strangers, so he said, "Thank you, I'm fine."

Pu Xin and I looked at each other, and I said first, "Are you alright?"

Pu Xin followed closely behind: "Yi Sheng, it's us."

Meng Yisheng was crying quietly at first, but after hearing our voices, she gradually raised her head.

Her lips were tightly pursed, and her eyes were filled with tears, and the tear stains were very obvious under the light.

I picked up the tissue on the table, bent down, and was about to wipe her tears, but she grinned and cried out in a broken voice.

She hugged my waist, sobbing and crying non-stop.

A staff member came forward to inquire about the situation, and Pu Xin waved her hand politely to express her gratitude and that she was fine.

Meng Yisheng was crying in my arms, I put my hand on her head and patted her comfortingly.

Some people turned their gazes to us and looked away within two seconds, and some people sighed.

After a while, Meng Yisheng finally cried enough, my clothes were already wet with tears.

Pu Xin wiped away her tears and said in a soft voice, "Yi Sheng, go talk to me."

Meng Yisheng didn't refuse, she didn't say a word the whole time, and let us drag her out.

As soon as she got into my car, she couldn't stop her tears again. She really cried until she coughed, and her face was flushed red from the cough.

Pu Xin patted her on the back. Before I started the car, I turned around and looked at Meng Yisheng, and said, "Let's not leave now, just sit here for a while, and leave when you feel better."

Meng Yisheng nodded. She leaned her head against the car window and closed her eyes.

Time passed by, and I held the steering wheel with my fingertips and tapped the steering wheel frequently.

Pu Xin was holding a tissue behind her, wiping Meng Yisheng's tears from time to time.

After a while, I looked at the time, it was almost 10:30.

Meng Yisheng's mood gradually stabilized, she opened her mouth and spoke out: "Last night, he said that their company had a celebration party, and he couldn't be absent."

"I went to bed early, but because I was pregnant, my sleep was very light, and he still remembered it before, so every time I came back at night, I moved very lightly, for fear of disturbing me."

"But when he came back last night, the door was slamming loudly and he was still on the phone, probably thought I was asleep."

"He called the other party 'baby', he said he had arrived home, and worried that I would be woken up, lowered his voice and left the bedroom."

Meng Yisheng paused here for a while, contemplating for a while before continuing: "I endured it all night, and I didn't sleep well all night. I told him to tie a tie this morning, but he said no, he said he was afraid of tiring me. "

"His mouth was broken a bit. I asked him why his mouth was broken. He said the weather was dry and his lips were peeling. He just tore it off."

"I also gave him one of the lip balm Shen Xun gave me before, and he said he would put on the lipstick immediately, but the lipstick I took out was another one I hadn't seen before, and the traces of use on it were obvious."

"...The packaging of the lipstick is very pink."

Pu Xin couldn't listen anymore, and after she said "Fuck me", she frowned tightly: "Don't let anyone stop me now, I'll go buy a knife right now."

Meng Yisheng stretched out his hand to hold her arm, his expression no longer fluctuated, I saw...disappointment, or despair.

"He didn't want me to wear a tie, but I saw it anyway, the scratches and hickeys on his neck."

"I didn't ask him, but the answer was already obvious. I reluctantly sent him downstairs, and I didn't dare to go home again."

Under Meng Yisheng's calm expression, tears began to flow again: "Why?"

I can't figure it out either.

why?

Meng Yisheng sniffed, she coughed again, and said: "He and I have been together since high school, we have gone through high school and college. And we have been married for three years, and now we will meet again in a few months. There is a child. He is the only one in my youth, but I will not be the only one in his world."

Pu Xin lowered her eyelids, held a tissue in her hand, and did not speak.

Meng Yisheng took a deep breath, wiped away her tears, raised the corner of her lips with an ugly curve, she tried to relax a bit, she looked at me: "Zhizhi, I'm hungry."

Pu Xin took her hand: "We have a new chef in our shop, I'll take you to try his dishes."

For Meng Yisheng, this stage is undoubtedly the heaviest in a long time.

Her husband cheated on her during her pregnancy, and her feelings are self-evident.

She didn't want to go home, so I called her parents and said that Meng Yisheng would stay with me for two days.

Fortunately, her parents were more at ease with me, and after giving some instructions, they didn't ask any more questions.

Meng Yisheng is temporarily staying at my house, and I have already called Xie Ying to explain.

After arriving at my house, Meng Yisheng changed into my washed pajamas, lay on my bed, and gradually fell asleep.

Looking at her sleeping face, I couldn't help but feel sad and sad for her. As her friend, I already felt angry enough, but what about her feelings as the person involved?

Needless to say, her not wanting to go home is the biggest proof.

She fell asleep, and I had extra time to read the messages on my phone.

I've been busy this morning, and I'm taking care of Meng Yisheng's mood while eating. I don't look at my phone, at most I just look at the time.

I clicked on WeChat, and it turned out that Meng Yisheng had sent me a message before calling me. She knew my sleep time, but after waiting for a few minutes, she decided to call me and let me not blame her when I saw the message woke me up.

Her posture was very low, which made me feel even more distressed.

Besides her, there is also Shi Jinghe's message, which was sent to me after I fell asleep last night.

She said let me take care of the wound, don't get worse.

There is no explanation for the withdrawn word "distressed", not even "wrong post".

I sat on the couch and rubbed my face trying to take most of the wear off, but ended up feeling more helpless.

I didn't know what to reply, but after thinking about it, I only replied with two words: [Yes. 】

It might seem...a bit alienating.

I tiptoed open the bedroom door, Meng Yisheng was breathing steadily, but her brows were always furrowed, and there was always an indelible worry and tension on her face.

I retreated to the living room and sent a message to Pei Keran.

I asked her: [Of course, do you sell sweets suitable for girls who have lost their love in your store? 】

I tried to understate it as much as possible, and described "husband cheating" as "broken love".

Meng Yisheng often told me before that even if she and Yan Yan are married, they are still in love.

But now?I looked worriedly in the direction of the bedroom at the door.

Pei Keran replied to me: [Yes, it tastes sweet first and then sour. 】

When Meng Yisheng is sad, he always likes to eat sweets or candies. I thought about it for a while before I thought of this.

It probably won't make her feel better, but there will be an emotional vent.

【Okay, I'll buy it. ] I replied to Pei Keran again, 【Can you take out in your store?I can't get away now. 】

Pei Keran got back to me soon, she said yes, and said that the candy was given to me, she would find someone to bring it to me, and asked me to send her the address.

So I fell into waiting, hoping that Meng Yisheng would not have woken up when the delivery boy arrived.

Half an hour later, my doorbell rang.

It just so happened that Pei Keran also sent me a message at this time, saying that the candy delivery person had arrived at my door.

I no longer doubted, and opened the door.

What catches the eye is not the delivery guy in a yellow or blue uniform, but Shi Jinghe.

She carried a small basket in her hand, which contained beautifully wrapped candies.

When she saw me, she wasn't surprised at all. With questioning eyes, she asked me aloud, "You...are you broken in love?"

Her nasal voice was a little more nasal than before, and her voice was a little hoarse, probably because she was too tired.

"Aren't you busy?" I asked her instead of answering her words.

Shi Jinghe shook his head slightly: "I'm not busy now."

She reached forward and lifted the basket to me: "The smell in the back is a bit sour, you can spit it out if you can't stand it."

She was still wearing more formal clothes and suit pants, but carrying such a basket in her hand somewhat disrupted the harmony.

I took it, and was about to thank her, when I heard her ask again: "Is the bag on your head okay?"

I was stunned for two seconds, then nodded: "It's much better." I looked at her, "Thank you."

The main reason is... I have been thinking about Meng Yisheng all the time today, and the pain on the top of my head can already be ignored.

Shi Jinghe nodded, and pointed in the direction of the elevator: "That's fine, then I'm leaving."

I opened my mouth, but still called her: "Shi Jinghe." I explained to myself, "I haven't lost my love, oh no, I haven't lost my new love, it's my friend."

I sent an invitation to her: "Would you like to come in and sit down? It's not messy."

By the time I regained my composure, Shi Jinghe had already sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Compared with her elite attire in such a home environment, there is a slight disharmony.

I fetched her a glass of water and heard her ask, "You rented this?"

"Well, there is no money to buy."

"So you rented your own house to others, and you rented someone else's house?"

"Yes." I said, "I'm not you, any floor can be a home."

Shi Jinghe nodded in agreement: "Yes."

I:"……"

I picked up hot water for her, and I accidentally touched her hand when I was taking the basket.

very cool.

I put the steaming cup in front of her: "Warm your hands."

"Thank you."

There are only her and me in the living room. To be honest, I am a little nervous now.

Every time I get alone with Shi Jinghe, I'm a little nervous because I'm afraid that she will see through me and find out that I'm approaching her intentionally.

More importantly, she has also witnessed my past, which invisibly put me under a lot of pressure.

She closed her eyes and silently held the water glass. I squinted at her for a few seconds, and saw her eyelids moved and she sat upright again.

I secretly exhaled, and at this moment, I received another message from Pei Keran.

She asked me if I was surprised or pleasantly surprised to see the "delivery boy".

I didn't answer.

In fact, there were, and I was even more surprised, because I didn't expect to meet Shi Jinghe like this, and as the boss, she personally delivered the things.

Pei Keran immediately sent another message, this time I was even more surprised.

She said that Shi Jinghe had a fever yesterday afternoon because he had been working too hard recently.

I was very surprised: [Then she still comes to work today? 】

[No, I just told you about you, and she drove to the store and said she would send it to you. 】

[I saw that she was dressed so formally, I thought she was still at work today...]

【No, she dared to come and I broke her leg. 】

Seeing this, I raised my eyes to look at Shi Jinghe.

She still had her eyes closed, and there was indeed a trace of abnormal redness on her face.

No wonder her nasal voice became more nasal and her voice was a little hoarse, I thought she was just tired.

I didn't expect to be sick.

Why does this person get sick so easily?I remember that when I met her for the third time, the reason she wore a mask was because she was sick.

It hasn't been long at all, has it?

I choked my throat and asked her softly: "Sister Jinghe, do you need to take medicine?"

Shi Jinghe slowly opened her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she tilted her head to the side and coughed, while waving her hands to indicate no.

"then you……"

"Drink more hot water."

Shi Jinghe bent the corners of his mouth after listening to my two words, the dimples around his lips showed.

I scratched my hair, and was about to ask if she needed throat lozenges or something, but she spoke before me: "My mother doesn't allow me to play with my phone, she just took my phone away last night , I haven't had time to post it yet."

I was a little confused: "You posted it."

Didn't she tell me to be careful of the wound?Am I wrong?

Shi Jinghe: "...that was added later, not what I wanted to say."

She glanced at me: "My sister secretly gave me the phone back, so I sent you a message."

Oh my god, this picture feels.

"It's okay." I raised my hand and touched the bag on top of my head. It didn't hurt as much as when I was kicked yesterday.

I said: "Yesterday, I went to the rainy campus, and a boy kicked a football on top of my head. Fortunately, I avoided it in time. Otherwise, it would be more than just a bag, and I might have a bruised nose and a swollen face."

Meng Yisheng was still sleeping in the bedroom, so I tried to speak as softly as possible, for fear of waking her up.

Another question came to my mind: "So what are you going to post? 'Sent by mistake' or 'Canceled and withdrawn'?"

"It's nothing."

"..."

Shi Jinghe picked up the water glass and took a sip of water to moisten her throat. After putting down the glass, she covered it again. Then she looked at me and said, "Anyway...you pay attention to safety, don't make an example."

...?

I was stunned again: "Your tone sounds like I..."

I can't go on, why did I think of Qiu Yu again.

In fact, it is really like Qiu Yu, Qiu Yu likes to control me very much, she said that she hopes that I will be firmly in her hands.

In the end, I didn't run away, but she took the lead in not wanting me.

But Shi Jinghe took my words: "Like you..." She paused, lowered her eyebrows, and stopped looking at me, "Is your first love girlfriend?"
