"What is like?"
"Like is an involuntary desire to get close, to possess, and to be willing to give. When you see a piece of clothing that looks good, you want to spend money to buy it and make it yours. This is the simplest kind of like."
The cold wind was howling outside, carrying snow particles into her collar and cuffs.
The two of them walked down the stairs with their sleeves tucked in as they chatted casually on the streets of the neighborhood.
"What if I can't afford it?"
"If I can't afford it, I will work hard to earn money so that I can afford it. This process of working hard is also a kind of sacrifice."
"When it comes to liking, possession and giving are equal. Only wanting to possess without giving is not considered liking. If you can't afford it after working hard, you can't steal or rob it. You can only satisfy yourself. Have you considered whether you will dirty or break it in the process of robbing it?"
Xu Qing spat out a long breath of cold mist and turned to look at her. He smiled and said, "That's why I don't want to lie to you. I'll let you think about it yourself. If you don't like it, then I'll let you go. As long as you're fine, it's fine.
"I think you are lying to me." Jiang He glanced at him. "It is definitely not as simple as you say."
If he didn't want to possess, why would he touch her hand every day?
"Uh …"
Xu Qing was speechless. He paused for a while and then said. "Being deceived is also a kind of like."
"I don't."
"I'm just talking about this. I didn't say you have it." He said.
Jiang He didn't say anything. She walked slowly with her neck shrunk and seemed to be thinking about something.
She had been thinking about this matter these days. Now that she had basically confirmed it, she began to struggle about which place she liked.
Which place did she like?
Blowing her hair? Answering questions with endless chatter? Barbecuing meat for her? Cooking noodles in the kitchen? Or …
She tried hard to think. She felt that there must be something she liked, just like how he liked her hand.
Or maybe he liked everything?
No, she didn't like Xu Qing talking nonsense like having five children … Bah bah bah.
Jiang He lowered her head and snorted, which made Xu Qing feel a little puzzled.
Why was this girl snorting while walking?
It sounded weird …
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'm not thinking about anything." Jiang He put his hands in his pockets and quietly clenched his fists.
Feeling the slight cracking of her joints, her gaze suddenly fell on Xu Qing's arm.
It was too cold, so Xu Qing didn't reach out to pull her. Instead, he pulled up his sleeves and held it in his hands.
Jiang He's eyes flickered as he recalled the thumping feeling when he was led away. Then, he calmly looked away.
It seemed like it liked to be held?
The north wind whistled, and the night was exceptionally cold.
The two of them walked half a step away from each other as they walked toward the gate of the neighborhood. Xu Qing didn't know about the entanglement in her mind. He was thinking about things on his own.
In the darkness of the night, an electric scooter slowly entered the residential area, accompanied by a low humming song. With his eyes closed, Xu Qing knew who it was.
"You just got off work?" He greeted her, glanced at Jiang He, and reached out to hold her arm.
"Eh? Why are you … you two going back? "
Qin Hao's humming was interrupted. The old scooter stopped in front of them and looked at them under the streetlight. When he saw Jiang He clearly, he raised his eyebrows.
A high school sister, humph.
"Where else can we go? Let's go to your house? "Xu Qing smiled." I'll take my girlfriend to your house … This is Qin Hao. You've met him before. "He turned his head and said the last sentence to Jiang He.
Jiang He didn't say anything and only nodded. She felt that this black fatty was not a good person. He even wanted to investigate them last time.
"Go away." Qin Hao pulled his collar angrily and stopped staring at Jiang He. "You were the one who messed up my blind date, and now you want to provoke my old man?"
"Didn't I hear that you got a blind date? That's fast. "
"Fast my ass, I … I can't talk to you anymore. It's cold. Let's go."
"I'll bring him out to meet me some other day." Xu Qing shouted.
Qin Hao sat in the car and waved his hand as he drove home leisurely.
Meet my ass. It was just a way for the two of them to fool their families. They came out to eat fast food, took a photo and sent it back. Then, they went back to do their own things.
However, he couldn't let Xu Qing know about this. If he did, he would definitely report it to Qin Maocai, and it wouldn't even last a day …
Seeing that Qin Hao had gone far away in the car, Xu Qing let go of his hand and put it back into his pocket. He took a few quick steps forward. "It's really cold today. Hurry up."
It wanted to snow, but it didn't. Only the fine snowflakes were blown by the wind. When they hit his face, it felt like scraping knives. After a while, he wanted to hide his face in his scarf.
He should buy a mask to wear …
"Is love great?"
Standing at the intersection waiting for a taxi, Jiang He's words turned into cold mist and were blown away by the wind.
She felt very strange now. The accountant in the past was a pedantic scholar who often sighed.
According to that scholar, the love between a man and a woman was a beautiful thing. Like Guan Guanzhou … it sounded beautiful. There was also the friendship between a man and a woman. She couldn't remember it clearly. Anyway, it was definitely not like what she was experiencing now.
The two of them were frozen like idiots in the cold night. Holding hands and feeling … it was a very strange experience. It was not beautiful at all.
Jiang He looked at the streetlight above his head with a cold face. He felt that something was wrong.
But it was still very magical.
"Of course it's great. Why do you keep asking this question recently?" Xu Qing asked.
Did the little girl become enlightened?
Was she thinking about love?
Other than playing games, she had probably been thinking about this matter … It was not bad. It was better than thinking about messy things like sneaking away.
"How great is it?" Jiang He didn't answer him but continued to ask.
"Beyond life and death, asking what love is in the world. It teaches people to live and die together."
"I don't believe it."
"Because you haven't seen it … Well, I haven't seen it either." Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "Beyond life and death is an exaggeration. But it is a very special thing. For example, there is only one steamed bun now. Both of us are starving. I will leave it to you."
"I don't want to eat it." Jiang He shook his head.
"Okay. Let me put it in another way. If you like me, you will give it to me," Xu Qing said.
"That's what I should do."
"…"
Xu Qing was silent.
"Then what do you think it's like?" he asked.
"I don't know. But you said you want to live together."
"You want to live together with me?"
"I don't think about it. I'm just asking." Jiang He still looked up at the streetlight.
"Of course, you have to find someone you like. Liking will slowly turn into love. Love at first sight in the world is aroused by lust. Only by slowly understanding each other can you achieve spiritual unity. This is called love."
"Then what does it feel like?"
"You should be able to experience it after a kiss." Xu Qing was full and wanted to die. "Do you want to try?"
Jiang He looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
"Do you think I will be so easily fooled?"
