Chapter 43
Yan Jin was so drunk that she was a little dizzy, and originally planned to fall asleep in the next second.Suddenly heard the phrase "I'm back", and woke up most of the time on the spot.
The thousands and hundreds of meeting time scenarios that had been imagined in my mind were overturned in an instant.Yan Jin thought that they might run into each other inadvertently on a certain road, they might meet in a university classroom, or they might... never see each other again.
He pre-arranged that when he saw him, he might pass by like a stranger, he might say hello like an ordinary teacher and student, and he might still be a good friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time and who had been separated for many years... ....
He felt that he could face this person whom he had been pregnant with for three and a half years in a state of neither humbleness nor embarrassment, trying to keep himself a little bit of decency.
However, Yan Jin never expected that in this late spring night, he would still see himself in such a mess.Those who imagined everything in one brain were all messed up.
He was still thinking about something, Xie Ting had already touched the switch on the wall lamp and turned on the light.
It was still the handsome face, the face that Yan Jin had traced thousands of times in his mind, the one he had thought about for three years, the familiar face.
Xie Ting rubbed her messy hair, the corners of her eyes were a little red, and her voice was still a little drowsy. "Where did you go? Come back so late?"
The tone was casual, as if there had never been such a separation for three and a half years.
Yan Jin's eyes suddenly felt a little sore, he lowered his head, turned around and walked out the door without saying a word.He almost trembled and opened the door of his house, and stumbled to the bedroom just like the drunken man many years ago.
He turned on the phone with trembling hands - at this moment, he felt that he needed someone who could listen to him.Flicking over and over on the screen, I wanted to call Xiaopanger, but thought that Xiaopanger must be asleep so late.He opened WeChat and found Moments, which he hadn't used for a long time.He clicked on his profile picture, and there were very few circles of friends in it, and there was not even one that recorded his life, and he could not post five circles of friends in a year.
But every year on April [-]th, there is one day in the circle of friends that remains the same - happy birthday.
The small corner mark below reads "Visible to some friends".Yan Jin knew that there was only one friend in this group, and that was his Teacher Xie.
April [-]th is Xie Ting's birthday, maybe even Xie Ting himself has forgotten it.Maybe...he had already changed his number.He never took the initiative to look for him in these years, and there was never any news from the person far away across the ocean.Even Yan Jin felt that his Teacher Xie might have forgotten him.
He couldn't find a suitable person to listen to him, so he simply threw his phone on the bedside table and threw himself into the soft bed.According to his habit of thinking about things, he loves to look at the ceiling most.
Xie Ting is back, then what?
Are you still chasing and chasing in such a humble and embarrassing way as three years ago, and in the end you still walked away empty-handed?
He didn't want to, he was tired and tired.If he hadn't left three years ago, then he would naturally be willing.But he talked about controlling his emotions, but he forgot that emotions cannot be controlled by others.
If Xie Ting doesn't want it, then he doesn't want it. He missed three and a half years of his life and left first.But he will still abide by the agreement made three and a half years ago, until he finds a partner and knows that he is living happily, he will be satisfied.
The promise you haven't kept, even if you don't admit it, it doesn't matter, I will keep it by myself.
He buried his face in the quilt, first he smiled wryly, and then there was a very low sob.
He still came back.
He felt like he was thinking about this messy thing just a little bit, and it was dawn.He picked up his phone, which was about to run out of battery, and checked the time: 6:09.
He remembered that at 08:30 there was an open class to be held, and Lao Xu had to assist the teaching by himself.
Heh, it's annoying just thinking about it.
He wasn't feeling sleepy, and the aftereffects of the alcohol were only now beginning to emerge—he had a terrible headache.
Nobody gave him painkillers when he was drunk anymore.But over the past three years, he has learned to behave himself, buying box after box of medicine and throwing them in the cabinet.
If you get drunk and hurt, you will get used to it.
He picks up a box of pills and inadvertently scans its expiration date—it expired two weeks ago.He still knows that expired medicine cannot be taken.He threw all the unfinished medicine into the trash can and poured himself a glass of warm water.He had long since faded away from his irritability, leaving only a gentle demeanor.
This is also learned from him. After he left, Yan Jin began to imitate him unconsciously.Imitate his temperament, his mannerisms, his tone of voice.
Anyway, it won't change for a while, and he thinks it's good now.
He drank two cups of warm water, thinking about how to face Xie Ting with a faint headache.
Who said that moderate pain is good for thinking?What nonsense!When Yan Jin couldn't think about it for less than 5 minutes, he thought so.
If you can't think about it, just hide away.He casually warmed a glass of milk for breakfast and looked at the clock.It was a quarter past seven.Usually at times like this he would be grooming the cats, but today he didn't have to.Teacher Xie is back, so he should order them.
He... won't go in, will he?When it's convenient, he can return the key to Xie Ting's house.Being so nameless and holding the keys of other people's houses really made him have some unrealistic fantasies - just like before.
He shook his head, trying to put the headache to the back of his mind.With a light bag on his back, he sent a WeChat message to Xiao Linzi.
[Yan Jin]: I'm ready, when will you arrive?
His WeChat name has been changed a long time ago, just like Xie Ting's WeChat name he laughed at before, simple and boring.
The second back:
[Xiao Linzi]: Brother, I have arrived at the gate of your community, come out quickly.
Yan Jin casually sent him an "OK" emoji, and cautiously opened the door.
The corridor is very quiet, there is no sound.The door opposite was still tightly closed, with no sign of opening.
Yan Jin pressed back her beating heart, deliberately lowered her footsteps, and went downstairs slowly, like a thief who has stolen something.
Lin Luozhe was standing by the security booth in the community.The young man's body has grown, tall and straight like a poplar.The glasses shone coldly, adding a little alienation to the already indifferent face, like an iceberg.
It's just that this iceberg melted automatically after seeing Yan Jin.Lin Luozhe was also carrying a bag, and said with a slight smile, "Brother, why is it so late today? Did you have a good time yesterday?"
Yan Jin rubbed her aching temple, and said weakly, "Headache."
Lin Luozhe walked side by side with him, turned his head to look at him: "What? Didn't you take your medicine?"
"The medicine has expired. You can buy it when you come back. Don't you say you're going to be late?"
Lin Luozhe glanced at him, finally nodded and said, "Okay then, after the open class, I'll accompany you to buy medicine."
Yan Jin smiled and waved her hands: "Go, go, I can just buy it myself. What kind of open class? I didn't listen to Teacher Xu yesterday, so I went on a short errand."
"The last batch of students who came back from studying abroad have returned, and the school means to absorb them into our school."
Yan Jin let out an "oh" and went away with a headache. "Then we assist in teaching? What is there to assist? There are so many of them."
Lin Luozhe and him walked to a crossroads, stood still, and said to him: "It's in rotation, so many teachers don't just give us an open class."
Yan Jin blinked, and said helplessly: "Yes, maybe I drank too much, and my mind didn't turn the corner."
"Brother, are you really okay? Why don't you go to the hospital?"
Yan Jin left him the back of his head, with two large characters written on it: "Refused."
Lin Luozhe smiled helplessly and chased after him.
"Brother, Uncle Yan asked me to talk to you last night..." Lin Luozhe's tone was inexplicably gloating.
Yan Jin paused, thinking that his tone must be bad.He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lin Luozhe for a long time, and finally said: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Lin Luozhe leaned over and whispered something in his ear.Yan Jin didn't hear clearly, and pushed him away in disgust, "What are you doing? What are you saying that's shameful? Speak up!"
Lin Luozhe was silent for a moment, and then said loudly: "...Uncle Yan said that this Saturday I arranged a blind date for you!"
The little girls on the road turned their heads in unison.
Yan Jin: I...
