Enchanted (GL)

Chapter 53

Ji Xi walked out of the bathroom and shook the drops of water on her hand. When she saw the scene at the door, her face instantly changed, calm and iron blue.

It was the second time I met them after seven years, and Ji Xi recognized it at a glance.

Some things, some people don’t have to deliberately remember them, they will remember them for a lifetime. If possible, Ji Xi hopes to forget these people.

Regarding Yang Ping and Zhou Qiang’s finding the door, Ji Xi’s expectation was that Qiao Zhiyu was there, which embarrassed her.

Ji Xi reacted quickly, and she immediately smiled at Qiao Zhiyu: “You take Xiaoqing back first. Sorry, I have something wrong.”

Qiao Zhiyu vaguely perceives Ji Xi’s subtle emotional changes, and is not at ease.

Ji Xi smiled again: “A visitor is here, I will give Xiao Qingduo another hour of class tomorrow.”

If it wasn’t for Qiao Zhiyu, Ji Xi would never use the word “guest” to address them.

“Well, contact me if you have something.”

Ji Xi pretended to be relaxed: “Okay.”

Qiao Zhiyu called Qiao Qing. When she left, she looked at the vicissitudes of middle-aged men and women in front of her and smiled politely. She just guessed if it was Ji Xi’s parents, but it didn’t look like Ji Xi’s reaction.

There were only three people left in the room, all standing in the narrow entrance, looking crowded. Yang Ping and Zhou Qiang, look at me and I will look at you. They are trying to make each other speak first.

Ji Xi turned his head and didn’t look at them, didn’t want to look, too lazy.

Yang Ping wanted to take a step forward, but hadn’t stepped out yet.

Ji Xi stopped them, “Don’t come in. Dirty.”

Yang Ping’s feet were filled with lead and stopped.

“Xi…Xixi.” Yang Ping’s voice trembled slightly, and she called Jixi’s nickname, but it sounded only crappy and not intimacy. She squeezed a wrinkled smile, and greeted Ji Xi with a greeting: “It’s been a long time since I saw you. You are in the north, and you are having a good time.”

On the side, Zhou Qiang looked around at Fan’s apartment environment, and asked with a smile, “This house is really beautiful, you bought it?”

“Rent it, I have no money.” Ji Xi looked indifferent, cold to his bones. Saying one more sentence is tormenting. She bluntly said: “I won’t see each other after I’ve said it. What do you mean by coming to me?”

Yang Ping squeezed the corner of her clothes, “We are, come here with your brother to treat the illness, so I thought about coming to see you too. You are doing well, so we can rest assured.”

Ji Xi sneered, thought it was funny, and was completely unmoved. If she couldn’t let go of herself, she wouldn’t have left herself cruelly.

“Your brother will have a craniotomy soon. His position is not good and the risk is high. In case there is a gap, it will be gone. Go and see him. I don’t know if there is any chance in the future…” Yang As Ping said, she burst into tears, and immediately burst into tears.

Ji Xi didn’t change her face, and simply said in four words: “I don’t have a brother.”

“I’m sorry, we owed you before. I’m sorry, we will apologize for you today.” Yang Ping said, pulling Zhou Qiang to plop and kneel on the floor, “Kneel down to apologize for you…you hate us It’s okay, but that’s your brother, so you really have the heart to leave him alone? Even if you go and see him!”

Make it “moved.”

Ji Xi still had no expression on her face, and she felt uncomfortable, but it wasn’t because of her biological parents who were kneeling before her, or because of her dying brother who had never met before. It’s just the unspeakable discomfort, disgusted with everything I have experienced, and finally calmed down my life, and got involved in these sevens and eights again.

“Do you think this will make me feel softer?” Ji Xi stared at the two kneelings in tears, looking down at them, curling her lips, smiling but not smiling: “It’s useless. I don’t have money, and I won’t give it to him. I spent money and didn’t want to see him. I made it very clear on the phone that day that whether your family is alive or dead is none of my business, and it’s not used to notify me.”

Ji Xi didn’t talk to each other too long, what Ji Xi said on the phone was not angry. She can accept their apologies, but will not choose to forgive. She cannot persuade herself to forgive them.

Not disturbing each other is the best way to deal with it.

Seeing Ji Xiruo’s nonchalant smile, Yang Ping and Zhou Qiang’s hearts instantly went cold. They thought they had met each other and cried and made two noises. The little girl’s family would always chant some affection and feel softer.

But right now–

“Why is your child’s heart so hard?” Yang Ping was anxious, with red eyes, and her mouth could not help but mutter, “It is said that blood is thicker than water and blood is thicker than water. Many books, why is my heart so hard?”

“Isn’t your heart hard?” Ji Xi interrupted in a simple sentence. She seemed to be leaning against the wall leisurely, her fists clenched, her nails pinched into the flesh of her palms, “My heart could be even harder. Come again, don’t blame me for looking for someone to be rude to you.”

When Ji Xi pretended to say this, it seemed like that.

When she was in graduate school, she was chased by a boy, and then she found a few apprentices from Jiang Nian’s shop, all of them were full of arms or backs. When the boy saw it, he immediately committed a crime and never dared to die again. Stalker.

Many people have prejudice against tattoos, and sometimes use this prejudice to have unexpected effects.

Many people are bullying and fearing hard work. Ji Xi understood this when she was very young. The less he resists, the more bullied.

After not entangled with them for too long, Ji Xi blasted the people away with indifference. After closing the door heavily, she dared to expose her feelings that had been strained for a long time.

Ji Xi went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water to drink, then sat back on the sofa, curled her legs and curled up in the corner of the sofa, hugging herself silently.

Who wants to be cold-blooded, who wants to be cruel, who wants their biological parents to kneel for themselves…

I feel very uncomfortable. But Ji Xi did not cry. She said that she would not cry again because of this incident, so she would definitely not cry again.

The palm of her hand hurts, Ji Xi opened her hand to see, her palm was covered with nail marks, and the skin was pinched a bit.

The sun slowly sinks, and the setting sun covers the living room, leaving a warm yellow.

Gradually, the dimness dissipated, and the light in the room was drawn away, leaving nothing but sadness.

I almost can’t see clearly in the room.

Ji Xi looked up at the balcony, the night scene was lit up under the smoky sky, and it was almost dark.

Feel it with your hand.

She turned on the light in the living room.

With a snap, the light came on, making the room extremely deserted. Ji Xi wanted to find something to do so that he could forget what happened in the afternoon.

Ji Xi took the phone resting on her lap and saw a previously unread WeChat message.

It was a short voice from Qiao Zhiyu. Ji Xi clicked to listen: “Little Qiao is always learning to bake bread with his aunt in the afternoon, and I bake a lot.”

There are two pictures below the voice bar.

One is Qiao Qing kneading the dough seriously, with a little flour on his fleshy face; the other is baked bread with a smiling face decorated with chocolate. .

After seeing the picture of smiling bread, Ji Xi couldn’t help but smile. She typed and boasted: “Cute”.

Soon, Qiao Zhiyu returned to her: “Are you free tonight? I will bring you some to try.”

Ji Xi was still curled up on the sofa, isolated and helpless. She looked at the words on the screen and thought of Qiao Zhiyu, and finally couldn’t help replying: “I’m free.”

I want to see her, I want her to accompany myself. Especially now, I can’t help thinking.

Qiao Zhiyu was naturally happy to see these two words. She called Ji Xi, “Have you had dinner?”

After hearing this voice, my mood improved a lot. Ji hoped that the room was empty. This time he said honestly: “Not yet, how about you?”

Across the phone, Qiao Zhiyu seemed to be able to notice that she was not in good condition. In the afternoon, she was very worried about Ji Xi, and felt that she was thinking too much.

“Ready to eat. The guest is gone?”

Ji Xi bit her lower lip: “Go away.”

“I’ll be here soon.” Qiao Zhiyu said.

“Ok.”

Putting down the phone, Ji Xi leaned back on the sofa lazily. I found myself changed. I was never afraid of loneliness when I was alone. Now I stay alone and I always think of Qiao Zhiyu when she was by her side.

Ji Xi didn’t plan to eat dinner. She slept on the sofa and squinted for a while. After a while, she was awakened by the doorbell.

She opened her eyes, her nerves tightened instantly, and the first reaction was Yang Ping and the others.

Ji Xi got up, walked to the door, looked through the cat’s eyes, it was Qiao Zhiyu. She didn’t expect it to be Qiao Zhiyu, she thought Qiao Zhiyu would at least wait until dinner was over before coming back.

“Why did you come here?” Ji Xi’s first sentence after opening the door.

Qiao Zhiyu smiled and raised the paper bag in his hand by the way, “Little Qiao always makes you buns.”

He rushed over as soon as he called, Ji Xi’s heart was poked, is she worthy of Qiao Zhiyu’s kindness to her?

Just one more person, the atmosphere in the room immediately changed, becoming lively and warm.

Qiao Zhiyu sat in front of the sofa, lowered his head, carefully unpacking.

Ji Xi poured a glass of water for Qiao Zhiyu. She stood in front of the sofa, holding the glass in her hand, staring at Qiao Zhiyu’s profile, staring blankly. From the bottom of her heart, she likes to watch Qiao Zhiyu, but not enough.

Qiao Zhiyu raised his head, “What are you doing in a daze, come and taste it.”

Ji Xi put down the water glass and sat down on the sofa. Looking at the cartoon buns in the box, they were cute. Each bun has a smiling face, which is more cute than the photo.

“Specially made for you.” Qiao Zhiyu turned to look at Ji Xi, and then asked, “Guess which ones Xiao Qiao always did and which ones I did?”

Specially made it for herself… Ji Xi swept around on the coffee table, pointed to the right half and said, “You did it here?”

Qiao Zhiyu smiled helplessly, and asked his soul: “You think I’m not as good as a kid, right?”

Ji hoped for Qiao Zhiyu, did not speak, but suddenly laughed, wanting to laugh for no reason, being with her is the feeling of being cherished and being carefully held in the palm of his hand.

“Left.” Qiao Zhiyu really explained to Ji Xi, “I did what looks good.”

Ji Xi wanted to laugh even more.

Qiao Zhiyu: “What are you laughing at?”

Ji Xi said, “You are like a child.”

The two laughed at the same time.

Ji Xi looked at Qiao Zhiyu, and at the same time she was a bit sore and wanted to cry. Particularly inexplicable.

“Taste one.” Before Qiao Zhi’s words fell silent, her waist suddenly stiffened, because the people around her came over without warning and hugged her.

Just a second ago, Ji Xi never thought that she would do this kind of behavior.

She hugged Qiao Zhiyu tightly, buried her face in Qiao Zhiyu’s neck, unscrupulously sniffing the fragrance she liked…
