MTL - Wear To the High School Days of Iceberg O-Chapter 52
Jiang Shuyi looked at Wen Yao.
In fact, she knew very well in her heart that Wen Yao had no obligation to comfort herself.
Wen Yao just had a meal with her former classmates and teachers.
It was she who wanted to eat with them in the past, and it was she who became unhappy by herself.
"..." Jiang Shuyi looked at Wen Yao, and slowly lowered his head.
street light
For some reason, Jiang Shuyi felt that the things in his mind were crowded together, making a mess.
She looked at her own shadow in confusion.
"Wen Yao."
"As long as I'm with you, I'm like a different person."
"Become childish, become uneasy, I am obviously not such a low self-esteem, such a disrespectful person."
"As long as I'm with you, I'm like a small, angry, aggressive kid."
When Xiao Jiayu brought me vegetables, I childishly said that I was allergic to seafood.
He spoke to me, and I didn't respond politely...
I look like a child who is inexplicably angry.
You two will be depressed for a long time about the fact that you both eat Sham Tseng Roast Goose with Roast Goose Sauce.
Jiang Shuyi felt that he was really ashamed of himself, so he couldn't help biting his lips.
Jiang Shuyi looked at Wen Yao, and said in a low voice,
"Obviously, I've been looking forward to today's Christmas for a long, long time..."
"But I'm really not happy today."
As Jiang Shuyi spoke, his head lowered lower and lower.
Jiang Shuyi wiped his eyes, let go of Wen Yao's hand, and took a few steps back without speaking.
Wen Yao paused with his fingers in the air, looking at Jiang Shuyi's reddened eyes, his heart ached.
"..." Wen Yao watched her go to other places, followed her silently, and grabbed Jiang Shuyi's sleeve.
Jiang Shuyi looked aggrieved at the sleeve that Wen Yao had grabbed, and then pursed his lips.
"I'm really sad."
"I'm mad at you for always acting like it doesn't matter, pretending nothing happened."
"I'm mad at you for smiling at other people and not me."
"I really hate the feeling that I couldn't get in the way when you were talking together during the meal just now. I seem to be an insignificant person to you..."
"..."
"I never thought you were an insignificant person, Jiang Shuyi."
Wen Yao tugged on Jiang Shuyi's sleeve and said word by word.
"..." Wen Yao lowered his head, as if he wanted to say something, but stopped again, and just repeated it quietly.
"I never thought about it that way."
"Jiang Shuyi."
"To me, you are not insignificant."
"It's not twelve o'clock yet."
Wen Yao looked at Jiang Shuyi and took a slow breath.
"Christmas isn't over yet, are you going for a walk?"
she invited, which is rare.
--
The two walked slowly from the central street to a commercial area, and then to a residential area.
The two walked through Wen Yao's junior high school and Wen Yao's elementary school.
Wen Yao didn't say much, but said when passing by these two places: "This is my elementary school."
"This is my junior high school."
Because today is Christmas, the surrounding trees are decorated with white or orange neon lights.
Pedestrians hurried past here, unable to see what these people were thinking.
Because from the surface of people, it is difficult to see what a person is really thinking.
Jiang Shuyi and Wen Yao finally stopped in a small park.
There is a sandpit, swings and slides for the little ones.
This place looks very childlike, not like a place where Wen Yao would come.
Wen Yao slowly sat on the swing in this small park.
"This place is very close to my former junior high school."
"..." Jiang Shuyi looked around, nodded, and sat beside her.
Maybe this is the place where Wen Yao often came to play when he was a child.
Jiang Shuyi thought.
Because of the situation of Wen Yao's family, Wen Yao seldom talked about the past.
Jiang Shuyi waited for Wen Yao to say the next thing without interrupting.
Wen Yao looked at the high-end residential area opposite, without saying a word.
Jiang Shuyi didn't speak either.
"...that house with the blue roof, can you see it?"
After a while, Wen Yao asked abruptly.
"..." Jiang Shuyi immediately looked in that direction as Wen Yao said.
I thought something incredible happened, but in fact, it was just a very ordinary house.
It is a very ordinary single-family house in a high-end villa area.
It looks a bit clean, brightly lit, and very elegant decoration and dazzling crystal chandeliers can be seen inside the glass windows.
Nothing unusual.
"...Well, I see."
Jiang Shuyi didn't know why Wen Yao asked himself to look there, and shook the swing in a bored way.
After a while, Wen Yao looked at Jiang Shuyi quietly.
"I used to live there."
"..." Jiang Shuyi stopped shaking the swing.
"Before, my parents and I, three people lived there."
Wen Yao then said expressionlessly.
"However, I don't live there anymore."
"Two years ago, I sold it to pay off the debt."
She spoke as if it had nothing to do with her, very flat.
"..."
Jiang Shuyi no longer knew what to say.
Jiang Shuyi remembered what Zhou Jingtang told him about Wen Yao's appearance in junior high school.
Born into a wealthy family, his parents were happily married.
Whether it is grades or sports, she is so outstanding that people can't match it, and there are a lot of people chasing her behind her.
Like a star who has everything.
Like a superman who can do everything, as if omnipotent.
Jiang Shuyi once thought that the part of the family's wealth was just a lie.
"When I was in junior high school, it was probably the most relaxing time in my life."
"When I was talking to Teacher Liu and Xiao Jiayu, I might have remembered what happened at that time."
Wen Yao stared blankly at the lights in the distance, like a dazed and pale ghost.
"If I just made you feel that you are insignificant to me..."
"Sorry." She said in a low voice.
