you are not thirsty

Chapter 49 Engagement

Huo Xiaobai felt like he had a long, long dream.

In the dream, he was hanging on a tree by the cliff, alone, with only the hard rock wall in sight. He grasped the branch vigorously, hoping that he would not fall, but his body gradually lost his strength. When he was about to give up, he saw a familiar face on the top of the cliff. The man's face was still indifferent, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth. Just when he was about to speak, he found that The man turned over and jumped down...

"what!--"

Huo Xiaobai suddenly opened his eyes. He sat on the hospital bed and panted silently for a long time. He looked at the surrounding light-colored walls and sheets, and his hand was still dripping. Come on.

This is... a hospital?

Huo Xiaobai only felt a headache, and just as he was about to reach out to touch the back of his head, the door of the ward suddenly opened.

"Xiaobai, you finally woke up!"

Li Yao put the steaming hot breakfast he just bought on the table next to him, and then came to the bed.

Huo Xiaobai stared at Li Yao thoughtfully for a while, and finally felt that some broken pictures were slowly pieced together in his mind.

Hot springs, tree trunks, cliffs...

Then...it seemed like he fell down.

"Your arm was slightly broken and you hit your head. You should still feel dizzy now..."

Li Yao stretched out his hand to help Huo Xiaobai straighten the pillow behind him, then took out the millet porridge he just bought and handed it to Huo Xiaobai.

Huo Xiaobai took the millet porridge from Li Yao's hand but didn't have any appetite, so he could only put it back on the table. He stared thoughtfully at the white sheets and was silent for a while, then asked in a hoarse voice, "Now... ...how many days have passed?"

"It's been three days since you got hurt."

"Then... camping."

"Don't worry, everyone is back."

Huo Xiaobai pulled up the quilt in embarrassment, and then said to Li Yao, "I'm sorry to cause you trouble."

Speaking of this, Li Yao suddenly had an unnatural expression on his face. He tucked the corner of the quilt for Huo Xiaobai, and then said, "Lie down for a while, I'll call the doctor."

Huo Xiaobai nodded and closed his eyes.

Li Yao walked to the door, lightly tapped his hand, he still paused, then sighed lightly and finally said, "It was Li Jingao who found you at the bottom of the cliff."

Huo Xiaobai stared blankly at Li Yao's back, wanted to ask something more but couldn't ask after all, when he recovered, Li Yao had already gone out.

In a blink of an eye, Huo Xiaobai has been in the hospital for two weeks. During this period, many people came to see him, but there was no Li Jingao.

Huo Xiaobai always looked at the people coming and going with a smile on his face, but there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Huo Xiaobai only felt bored in the hospital, he asked the doctor, and finally planned to leave the hospital.

The days back to school were very peaceful. Gradually, Huo Xiaobai's arm was almost healed, and he began to spend day and night in the studio again, busy with various things in the school club. Back to the past.

But this time Huo Xiaobai couldn't calm down anymore.

Because a disturbed heart is like a lake whose bottleneck has been broken, no matter how calm the surface is, there will always be ripples from time to time.

Li Yao also often asked him out for dinner, but Huo Xiaobai used things to shirk them away. If he was too slow before, then Huo Xiaobai still had some awareness during those days in the hospital.

Huo Xiaobai understood that no one would be nice to another person for no reason. Li Yao put aside everything and just stayed in the ward and watched a patient like himself. How could he not understand Li Yao's thoughts.But he couldn't give any response, not only because of the special relationship between Li Yao and Li Jingao, but more importantly, Huo Xiaobai himself is in a mess now.

Originally, my life would go back to the past. I have long been used to loneliness, haven't I?However, once some people break into your life, they are destined to make you remember them forever.

Finally, when passing the newsstand one evening, Huo Xiaobai glanced slightly and saw the news published on it.

"Celebrity Feng Jin was revealed to be engaged recently and behaved intimately with her fiancé."

It looked like a candid photo, and it wasn't very clear, but Huo Xiaobai still recognized at a glance that the man holding Feng Jin's arms was Li Jingao.

Huo Xiaobai paused in front of the newsstand for a long time, he stared straight at the row of dazzling headlines in the magazine, as if he lost all his strength in an instant.

Huo Xiaobai stretched out his hand and touched his still sore arm, thinking in his heart that he was going to be engaged.

The old man at the newsstand looked at Huo Xiaobai standing motionless in front of the newsstand strangely, and asked him if he wanted to buy a newspaper, but Huo Xiaobai didn't hear anything, just turned around silently, and then stretched out his hands to close the newspaper. Pulling up the coat on his body, facing the cold wind, he continued to walk towards the dormitory.

If he wanted to bet once, he would bet whether Li Jingao would miss him.

·

In a blink of an eye, the day after tomorrow was the engagement ceremony. Li Jingao was sitting on the sofa absent-mindedly trying on the dress with Feng Jin, but his heart had already flown to his little baby.

When Li Jingao left the hospital, Huo Xiaobai had just escaped from danger, but it was an extraordinary period, and the family and the Feng family were watching closely. Forbearance.

Later when Huo Xiaobai woke up, Li Jingao didn't look at Huo Xiaobai in order to let Feng Jin relax his vigilance, but according to Li Yao's feedback, Xiaobai's arm should be almost fine. My heart relaxed a little.

He endured desperately in his heart, and kept telling himself that he must not mess around at the last moment.

"Ao, do you see how other people wear this dress?"

Feng Jin came out of the fitting room wearing a red slim dress. The dress was cut very low, and Feng Jin's chest was half exposed.

Li Jingao smiled at Feng Jin, and then replied, "It's beautiful."

Feng Jin was scratching his head and posing in front of the mirror, but Li Jingao's phone suddenly started to vibrate. Li Jingao's mouth hooked up, and then he walked outside the dress shop to answer the phone.

"Brother Ao, the information is basically complete."

Li Jingao glanced back at Feng Jin who was trying on the dress, and then said to the phone, "Send it right now."

·

Huo Xiaobai stared blankly at the invitation card in his hand for a long time, then laughed out of nowhere.

He also finally understood that he probably really overestimated his position in Li Jingao's heart, so that only now did he realize how stupid he was, what right did he have to bet on?

Maybe Li Jingao didn't care at all. He and four years ago have not changed at all.

Since the last camping, Li Jingao never came to him again, Huo Xiaobai only felt that his heart was getting colder day by day, and he had told himself over and over again, Huo Xiaobai, until now, what are you doing? What are you still looking forward to?

Perhaps it was really because he was unwilling to die until the Yellow River, Huo Xiaobai stared blankly at the invitation card for the engagement ceremony sent by Qin Jing, and realized how ridiculous his waiting these days was.

Li Jingao, I'm sorry, I probably can't bless you.

Huo Xiaobai suddenly wanted to indulge once, he shook his head vigorously, thinking in his heart while smiling, whatever Li Jingao he is, leave my fucking world.

Huo Xiaobai is finally leaving you.

Huo Xiaobai was walking on the school path, and saw a familiar figure in the distance.

Huo Xiaobai quickly reached out to wipe the wet corners of his eyes, then put on a face with a slightly exaggerated smile, and moved closer.

Before Xia Mu turned around and ran away, Huo Xiaobai stretched out his hand and quickly grabbed Xia Mu's clothes. Xia Mu sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide this time, so he directly changed into a pair of righteous and lingran clothes. expression.

"Xiaomumu, you are so mean. Not only did you sneak away after the school celebration last time, but you also disappeared from the world after that. You didn't come to the club, you just disappeared for me!" Huo Xiaobai blinked slyly Focusing, he observed Xia Mu's expression while talking.

After saying this, Xia Mu was really a little embarrassed. Huo Xiaobai quickly noticed that the tips of Xia Mu's ears turned red, and he couldn't help feeling proud, and then he heard Xia Mu say in a guilty voice, "I'm sorry, recently There are too many things."

Huo Xiaobai really couldn't bear to see such a little beauty look so pitiful in front of him, but in order to achieve his goal, he continued to restrain his face, and then pointed at Xia Mu's He said slightly angrily in his ear, "No one has ever ignored me because of other things!"

Xia Mu blushed even more after hearing Huo Xiaobai's words, but he hesitated and didn't know what to say. Seeing Xia Mu's appearance, Huo Xiaobai knew that it was almost done, so he hugged Xia Mu's shoulders as if to comfort him , and said, "Xiao Mumu, I just want to go to drink, you can go with me, and I will treat it as your apology."

After saying this, Huo Xiaobai blinked his eyes and pretended to look at Xia Mu innocently. Xia Mu really couldn't say anything to refuse, and in the end he could only be dragged by Huo Xiaobai to the bar.

As soon as Xia Mu entered the bar, he was stunned. He rarely came to this kind of place on weekdays, but Huo Xiaobai was obviously a regular customer. He pulled Xia Mu in very skillfully, completely ignoring Xia Mu's surprised expression, and He glanced at him lightly, with a disgusted expression, and said, "As for being so surprised?"

"But, but..." Xia Mu stammered, but was interrupted by Huo Xiaobai.

Huo Xiaobai pulled Xia Mu to find a seat and sat down, then said, "I know what you want to say, because this is a gay bar."

Xia Mu looked at the man dancing coquettishly on the stage next to him, opened his eyes wide and looked at Huo Xiaobai opposite him.

But Huo Xiaobai had a very natural expression. He reached for the wine brought by the waiter, skillfully opened the bottle, poured himself a glass, took a sip, and shook the glass to look at the amber inside. There was a gleam of light in his eyes, "Tonight, I want to find a man here."
