Chapter 54
Chapter 54
Ning Xingruan has always disliked staying in crowded places, especially in a noisy space like a shopping mall, he would always feel flustered when walking in the crowd.
But standing in the crowd again today, he felt a little like the excitement here.
Very popular.
There were people coming and going around, and he didn't dare to make too intimate movements with the person beside him, so he glanced to the side from time to time, otherwise he would always feel like he was about to be lost.
After a lot of times, the man rubbed the back of his hand inadvertently, then lowered his head and said in a low voice, "That's all right."
Ning Xingruan looked down subconsciously, and saw a thin thread connected between the two fingers. When the man raised his hand slightly, he felt a slight tightness at the base of the ring finger.
Hastily looked around, seeing no one noticed their movements, Ning Xingruan blushed and said: "Untie it quickly!"
"Don't worry, no one can see." The man shook his hand slightly and winked at him.
Hearing this, Ning Xingruan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but every time he passed by someone, he was still a little guilty, but more of a small excitement brought about by a secret stimulus.
Turning his head away, he couldn't help but secretly pursed his lips and smiled, and then looked straight ahead as if nothing had happened, but he never thought that his expression was clearly reflected in the glass of the shop, and it was also reflected in the man's eyes.
The second and third floors of the shopping mall are the clothing area, and the fourth floor is full of restaurants. Although the two of them are aimless, Ning Xingruan also led him up slowly from floor to floor.
The friendly greetings from the shopping guides, the rustling of the tea-drinking machines, and the aromas from various restaurants make you feel like you are walking among them.
Standing in front of the glass of the cat cafe, Ning Xingruan bent down slightly, and the two kittens walked over with their heads tilted, stretched out their paws and scratched him twice.Ning Xingruan smiled and looked sideways, and saw that person was looking at him, even though he was wearing a mask, he could still see the smile in those eyes.
"like?"
Ning Xingruan nodded, stretched out his hand and tapped the pink kitten's paw pasted on the glass, and said with a smile, "I've always wanted to raise a kitten after graduation."
He was afraid of the excitement, but he was also afraid of being alone.
The man bent down slightly, and the ends of his bundled hair fell next to Ning Xingruan's ear, rubbing against his cheek, bringing a trace of familiar fragrance.
Ning Xingruan didn't move, he glanced at the hair falling by his ears, and his ears turned red quietly.
The man also reached out and tapped the glass, but unexpectedly the kitten who was acting coquettish through the glass suddenly exploded, arched its body and jumped back.
The eyes of the two kittens were wide open, and the two tufts of hair on their ears swayed slightly. They hid behind the cat climbing frame and looked at this side vigilantly, and ran away again after a while.
Seeing this, Ning Xingruan couldn't help laughing, and turned around to see the man looking at the two cats helplessly.
Stretching out his hand to rub Ning Xingruan's head, he said: "This kind of unfamiliar one is not familiar with raising them. If you want to raise them, I will find some clingy ones for you."
Ning Xingruan smiled and did not expose him. It is said that cats, cats and dogs are very sensitive to some evil things. If he asked him to look for them, he would probably never have anything to do with them in his life.
Not wanting to go in again and harm the kittens, he got up and shook his fingers twice, and the two left the cat cafe together.
After walking around for more than two hours, Ning Xingruan was a little tired after the excitement passed, so he took the man to the fourth floor to find a restaurant with a southern taste.
Surabaya Village is in the south, this person should like southern food, right?
After ordering, Ning Xingruan glanced at the person sitting quietly beside him, and reached out to the waiter to make a gesture: "I want two sets of utensils."
After finishing speaking, he obediently put his hands on his knees, glanced at the man secretly with sparkling eyes, and then saw the waiter with a surprised face and said: "Don't worry, our tableware is free, and there is no extra charge."
When she came back to her senses, the smile froze before she had time to show, Ning Xingruan nodded awkwardly to the waiter.He also forgot that if people could see that they were two people, they would naturally serve two sets of tableware.
He just subconsciously wanted to emphasize the existence of this person beside him.
The hand was gently held, the fingers were squeezed into his fingers, and the fingers were interlocked. The man scratched his palm lightly, leaned over and almost whispered in his ear: "As long as you care about me, that's enough." gone."
To him, others are no different from mountains, rocks and trees, so how they treat him has nothing to do with him.
Ning Xingruan pursed her lips, glanced at him, and slightly lowered her head in embarrassment.
Maybe because he didn't want to cause trouble for Ning Xingruan, the man's movements were a little more restrained than usual, and he sat up straight after saying a word, but he didn't let go of his hand until the waiter came to serve the dishes, and Ning Xingruan struggled uneasily After a while, he let go with some regret.
Although the two deliberately concealed it, the man only focused on picking up vegetables for Ning Xingruan, and carefully picked out the shredded ginger and scallions that he didn't like to eat. There was an unusual intimacy in every movement, and Ning Xingruan was terrified. Watching him lower his eyes and carefully choose vegetables, he couldn't say what he wanted to remind.
Fortunately, there were not many people in the store, and no one noticed the weirdness between them.
He poured the water and sent it to Ning Xingruan. The man took a paper towel to help him wipe the oil stains from the corners of his mouth. Ning Xingruan subconsciously stopped, and he didn't realize it until the next second. Immediately, he saw the waiter who came to add water and quickly lowered his head. The head changed the kettle.
Although he bowed his head deeply, Ning Xingruan still saw the smile on his mouth.
Ning Xingruan could only feel the heat spread from the corner of his touched mouth to his entire face. He pretended to be calm and watched the waiter leave, took the water and drank it in one gulp, fidgeted and ate a few more mouthfuls of food, and hurriedly paid the bill left.
Until he walked a long way, he seemed to be able to feel the hidden gazes of those waiters.
Ning Xingruan let out a long sigh of relief after pulling people up to the fifth floor quickly.
The fifth floor is the entertainment area, and facing the escalator is a theater. Just in time for the movie to end, a group of people came out with hula la.
Ning Xingruan's eyes lit up, he swayed the thin thread with his fingers, and whispered, "Shall we go in too?"
I'm too tired to go shopping, why don't I go in and have a rest.
The man looked at the young couples holding hands in twos and threes in the crowd, and the smile on his face deepened: "As long as you like it."
The two found seats in the rest area. Ning Xingruan opened the software to find the movie schedule of this theater, put it on the table and pushed it in front of the man, tapped the screen and said, "Which one are you watching?"
At this time, a young couple sat next to the two of them, laughing and playing: "Don't get into my arms if you get scared later~"
"Ha! Let's see who gets into who's arms, the coward has the nerve to say..."
The man glanced at the two, and Ning Xingruan followed his gaze, feeling a bad premonition.
Sure enough, when he turned around, he saw his finger land on the poster that was so oozing.
"Okay, then let's watch cartoons." Ning Xingruan picked up the phone, nodded solemnly, and then quickly chose a seat to buy a ticket.
Horror movies or something, impossible, absolutely impossible!
Xiao ran to the ticket machine to buy a ticket, and when he came back, he handed one of the tickets to the man: "Take your ticket and go in with it later."
The pale pink movie ticket was held between his slender fingers, and Ning Xingruan looked at him holding the paper and smiled with his head down.
Looking at it like this, he seems to have become one of these young people, the same as them.
The movie starts, queue up to check tickets.Standing in the crowd, they, like everyone else, entered the screening hall with the two tickets in their hands.
On weekdays, there were not many spectators in the anime theater. After finding a seat, the man suddenly got up, told Ning Xingruan that he had something to do, and went out.
Ning Xingruan looked towards the exit suspiciously, feeling a little uneasy, what happened if he left in such a hurry?
There was an advertisement on the curtain, and he kept watching the exit absently until the movie started, and no one came back.
Feeling heavy in his heart, Ning Xingruan took out his phone in frustration and stared blankly at the black screen.
He found that he had no way to contact this ghost, only he came to find him, but he couldn't find him.
So just wait.
He gripped the handrail tightly, a little angry, but more scared.
Only then did he realize that he seemed to have gotten used to having this ghost by his side.
He clearly knew that maybe it was really just a small matter to deal with, and he couldn't always show up all the time, but he couldn't suppress the panic in his heart.
Why didn't you say anything before you left? I bought a ticket and came in. Can I explain something?
Ning Xingruan felt a little wronged.
There was a sound around him, the fingers holding the armrest were gently separated, and a cup of hot drink was stuffed into his hand.
Ning Xingruan stared at him blankly, the man whispered: "Sorry, I was delayed."
"...Can you tell me where you are going next time?" Ning Xingruan opened his mouth, but found that his voice was a little hoarse.
The smile on the man's face faded, and he held his face with his hands: "Did you see something, did you get scared?"
Ning Xingruan put down the cup weakly, shook his head slightly, opened his mouth and said, "I, I'm afraid..."
"Don't be afraid, I told you nothing will happen to you."
Ning Xingruan then finished what she wanted to say: "...I'm afraid something will happen to you, and I can't find you."
Looking at him steadily, the man's hand holding his face moved lightly, his eyes became a little darker, then he suddenly lowered his head and kissed his lips lightly.
Ning Xingruan blinked, his scalp tingled when he realized that there was someone behind them, was he seen?
But it's very dark here, so I can't see clearly, so what can I see.
He never felt that it was a shameful thing, and his own business was no one else's business.
He didn't move, so the man looked him in the eyes and kissed him again.
Warm, emotional, exciting.
Ning Xingruan trembled slightly, a tingling sensation spread all over his body, the strange yet familiar pleasure made it difficult for him to breathe, and he was a little dizzy.
He didn't grab the man's clothes until he was hugged in his arms and stroking his back, and he leaned his head weakly on his shoulder and panted heavily.
As if floating in the clouds, he was relaxed.
All struggles, doubts and fears are gone in this moment, at least in this moment.
Only the simplest, purest reactions remain.
There was some blur in front of his eyes, Ning Xingruan sighed, and lightly rubbed his shoulder.
That's it, if you keep struggling, the end result will be the same, so it's better to accept it earlier.
When he calmed down, he shoved the person away with some embarrassment, and quietly turned his head to look back.
The worrying thing did not happen, and the people behind were watching the movie seriously, without giving them a look.
"They didn't see it." The man kissed his forehead lightly and whispered.
Ning Xingruan wished that the embarrassment of toes on the ground would dissipate in an instant, that's good, it's very immoral to disturb others watching a movie.
For some reason, he was in the mood to watch a movie at this time.
One hand was being held, and the other hand was holding the cup. As expected, there was still a familiar smell in the cup.
After watching Ning Xingruan for a few minutes, he understood that this anime is a romantic movie mixed with some supernatural elements.
The elements are complete.
The man stopped moving when he held his hand, as if to give him a little time to react, and the two watched the whole movie quietly.
Seeing the end, Ning Xingruan, who was immersed in it, couldn't help but have slightly red eyes.
The plot of the movie is very simple, even a bit clichéd, but it is also a story of a man and a monster falling in love, beating mandarin ducks with clubs, and parting with each other.But the description is so detailed that people can't help but be taken in.
In the final ending, the monster sacrificed himself in order to save his lover and turned into a lotus flower, but the human beings didn't know anything, they guarded the lotus flower in the yard every day and waited for the lover to come back.
Day after day, the blue hair turns white and turns into a pile of loess, which can't wait for the withered lover.
When the ending song played, the auditorium was still very quiet, and a few people were also hurt by the sad ending, and walked out one by one without saying a word.
When the lights came on, Ning Xingruan let out a breath of gloom and was depressed.
The two walked at the back, and when they reached the corridor leading to the outside of the projection hall, the man stretched out his arms to hug him, and comforted him softly: "Okay, okay, don't think about it anymore."
Ning Xingruan grabbed the hem of his clothes and nodded slightly after being in his arms for a while.
Walking out of the screening room, the two people in front were still discussing. One said that mortals are too sad, and everything is kept in the dark. If they are confused, they will die. The other said that if mortals know about monsters, they will go to save themselves If you want to die, you will definitely not be willing, so you must hide it.
"Death is better than waiting endlessly. It's decades, and endless waiting is the most tormenting! At least you can leave a last word or something!"
"Then what can I do, the monster can't just watch her die, can it? There is an old saying that it is better to live than to die. If you really leave a last word, mortals will definitely be buried directly with her."
"..."
The two gradually drifted away, and the discussion disappeared.
Ning Xingruan sighed again, and said melancholy: "If I were that monster, I would definitely say it."
It's too pitiful to be left behind, especially being left behind without knowing anything. After waiting for such a long time, no matter how loyal the relationship is, it is inevitable to think wildly. I must have doubted whether I was abandoned more than once.
He tugged at the man's sleeve: "What about you?"
The man raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If I were that monster, I would naturally have to live and die. As long as I am strong enough, I am afraid that there will be no one left."
Ning Xingruan: ...
Makes sense.
The melancholy in my heart was instantly washed away.
"Your prerequisites have all changed, and you have said that one must die." Ning Xingruan cut corners.
The man glanced at him, stretched out his hand and patted his forehead: "Then we'll die together, it's better to be against the ghost couple than to take advantage of others."
Ning Xingruan grabbed his hand, wanting to take a bite, but seeing the crowd around him, she let it go.
They walked around the mall casually until there was nothing to see, and the two came out.
The man changed his clothes back, and he no longer appeared in front of people, so he led Ning Xingruan and walked slowly on the side of the road openly.
Until he answered Chen Linbo's call saying that Zhan Huai would be at school soon, urging him to go back quickly.
Ning Xingruan hesitated for a moment, then summoned up his courage and said, "How about, why don't you go back with me?"
