Chapter 106 Illusion and Reality
???? The moment Hua Baihe had doubts about her sexuality, she got up from her table and headed towards the door.
???? Uncle Bo seems to have a good understanding of the several experiences of her amnesia, and he is not quite sure whether it is possible to deceive the fragile, sensitive and tender heart of the young man outside with his young lady's disposition. Immediately, people were left behind until——
???? People came to the door.
????Of course, Hua Baihe himself can't guarantee this.
????When she wants to find something in her mind to prove her identity, or find something that can confirm her character...
???? She failed.
????A lot of important clips, for her, seem to be separated by a thick layer of ice, and she is lying on the solid ice, and she can hardly see her own shadow, let alone see through it. Everything that is white and foggy has a glimpse of my former life.
????Only very occasionally, there will be an unknown shadow flashing past from below.
???? However, when she went to track it down again, those bubble-like traces would disappear completely.
????With such apprehension——
???? In the process of walking to the door, she guessed the appearance of the person who appeared countless times, and even began to guess the story of herself and the stranger.
???? until the appearance of the visitor at the door came into view.
???? She was taken aback.
???? The first reaction is:
???? Is this person here to extort money from her family?
???? "I don't seem to like this type... It looks very obedient and easy to bully." A voice in her heart said softly and hesitated.
???? There is no other reason. At this moment, there is a figure in a dark blue suit standing at the door. His body is as slender as a bamboo against the dark blue background and white vertical stripes. Mouth and nose, or the overall feeling of being combined together...
???? are all perfect.
???? Especially the polite and warm smile on the corner of the lips, which almost still carries the temperature of the sun from the outdoors.
???? When she saw him, Hua Baihe felt that the whole room was illuminated by the visitor.
????As far as appearance is concerned, he is really good-looking.
???? Hua Baihe couldn't even find a single flaw in him.
????However……
???? Although she didn't call this person at all, she found that she had an unreasonable intimacy with him.
????Compared to the feeling after seeing Yin Xiao before, it is even worse.
???? Maybe she has been in a daze for too long. Even Uncle Bo, who is going to obey Mr. Yin's instructions and invite the guests back "politely", dare not make any more decisions. He just looks at his young lady in amazement. .
???? seems to be thinking, does Miss Yin really know this person?
???? If you really owe this young man a favor, Mr. Yin will probably have some headaches.
???? The housekeeper Yang Bo passed his plan in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, until Hua Baihe took the lead to break the short silence:
???? "Sorry, I seem to have lost the memory of this period of time..."
???? "Excuse me, would you mind telling me your name again?"
???? Hearing her question, the young man in the dark blue suit smiled slightly, and the tone of his mouth was refreshing:
????"certainly--"
???? He said: "I can introduce you as many times as you want. My name is Xitong, the one who learns, and the one who is the phoenix tree."
???? After saying this sentence, his lips moved, and he added in a low voice:
???? "Your... Xitong."
????The butler Uncle Bo, who happened to have good hearing and was still pretending to be a wooden man next to him: "..."
????As for Hua Baihe, he tilted his head, nodded and stretched out his hand at the same time, and also added out of politeness:
???? "I am Hua Baihe."
???? Xi Tong smiled, and when Yin Xiao and Xue Jiming Youzhi stopped their chopsticks together and stared in this direction together, they shook hands with Hua Baihe without any fear.
???? A slightly warm palm came up, and there was no extra movement, and it was divided as soon as it was grasped. From the undiminished state of the corner of the opponent's mouth, he didn't seem to mind reuniting with Hua Baihe. Get to know each other once.
???? Hua Baihe was still a little tense at first, but for some reason, after realizing his state, he relaxed a little.
????Intuition is quietly driving her body, as if to say...
???? He can be trusted.
???? Hua Baihe couldn't help repeating his name on the tip of his tongue many times.
????Xi Tong...Xi...Tong...
???? In the blink of an eye, something flashed in her mind, accompanied by many strange and colorful pictures and words, one of which read:
???? [I think you are a toad and a frog, you are ugly and want to play with flowers.jpg]
???? Hua Baihe: "???"
???? She was in a daze. She didn't know what kind of relationship she had with this person to get such a weird emoji.
???? Thinking about the word "emoji package", Hua Baihe's expression became more and more confused.
???? But once she wanted to chase those colorful pictures down, those pictures shattered like a mirror.
???? "We exchanged names and surnames, and we will be friends from now on—won't you invite me in for a cup of tea?"
????Seeing the thoughtful look on her face, the person in front of her asked with a slight smile.
???? After being reminded by him like this, Hua Baihe realized that he had lost his mind again.
???? She came to her senses and stepped back a little, which meant please. She didn't let Uncle Bo next to him have any chance to convey the opinions of the male hosts.
???? Yin Xiao and Xue Jiming at the dining table in the house: "..."
???? My heart is a little anxious, but also a little angry.
???? It was Xue Jiming who couldn't hold back anymore, got up and walked towards the living room, with the same smile on his face as Xi Tong, because the skin was also excellent, those who didn't know thought that there were two male peacocks competing to open their tails .
???? "Will you introduce me to my 'new brother-in-law', sister?"
???? It was Xue Jiming who asked the question first.
???? At that time, Hua Baihe was asking Uncle Bo to prepare Pu'er tea for digestion. When he turned his head, he saw Xue Jiming who was "extremely defensive" and attacked Xi Tong, who had his boyfriend's name on his forehead.
???? Hua Baihe glanced at Xue Jiming strangely.
???? But Xi Tong just sat on the sofa very indifferently, just looked up at Hua Baihe with a smile, as if he didn't hear the hint of jealousy in the word "new brother-in-law", waiting for her introduction.
???? Xue Jiming couldn't wait for his answer, and vaguely received a hint from his own sister's elbow to turn outward, and suddenly felt that the rest of his words were stuck in his throat.
????He secretly suppressed himself enough, and only took advantage of the moment when Hua Baihe and Uncle Bo had finished explaining the types of Pu'er, and asked sullenly:
????"sister……?"
???? Hua Baihe saw a little bit of grievance in his eyes for no reason, and belatedly said "ah", and replied with content that he could not think of:
???? "You didn't seem to care about me before."
???? Xue Jiming: "...!"
???? His eyes suddenly lit up, and he forgot this inexplicable brother-in-law behind him for a moment, and said quickly:
???? "Do you remember!"
???? "Sister, did you remember it again!"
???? Hua Baihe saw the anticipation and joy in his eyes. Compared with Xue Jiming's joy, her own reaction was much calmer. After a while, she said:
????"No."
???? She said: "I just suddenly felt this way."
????From Xue Jiming's point of view, she also saw that her magical sentence seemed to be in the right direction.
???? Don't remember why, she thought, Xue Jiming never cared about his love affairs.
Whether it is her father Yin Xiao or her younger brother Xue Jiming, she always feels that these two relatives are the type who will be extremely tolerant towards her lover as long as she can live well.
????as expected--
???? Xue Jiming was annoyed at the fact that this guy blatantly showed his identity, but because of Hua Baihe's attitude, he was only indifferent to Xi Tong at first, and soon changed his direction under the influence of Hua Baihe's attitude .
???? Seeing that his youngest son was about to betray the "father-son alliance" because of his sister's attitude, Yin Xiao immediately walked over from the dining table and slowly sat opposite Xi Tong.
???? "Xiao Xi, right...?"
???? He dragged his tone and asked Xi Tong a question.
????The young man in the dark blue suit heard his question, and didn't feel the slightest bit of being made things difficult for him. He only smiled and nodded to Yin Xiao, and shouted:
???? "Hello, Uncle Yin, I'm sorry that I came here rashly because I was worried about her situation."
???? Yin Xiao gave a meaningful "hmm", picked up his newspaper from the side, and pretended to shake it. While pretending that he was very busy, he asked casually:
???? "How did you know each other before?"
???? He said: "You have also seen my daughter's situation now, because of the aftermath of the previous accident, now and then she will occasionally forget all the previous things."
???? When he said this, he moved his eyes away from the newspaper a little bit, and looked at him with some scrutiny in his eyes.
???? Xi Tong pretended to be listening carefully, and when Yin Xiao finished speaking, he kept his smile unhurriedly, and continued:
???? "Xiaohua and I met... when she was at her worst state."
???? That is to say, he has even seen the worst Hua Baihe, who is healthy, has only minor sequelae, and will remember her all one day in the future, so what reason does he have to leave?
???? As soon as these words came out, Yin Xiao and Xue Jiming had nothing to say.
Everyone present almost acquiesced that when Hua Baihe was misdiagnosed with cancer, there was no doubt that she met her when she was in her worst condition.
???? In this deathly silence——
???? Only Hua Baihe asked indifferently:
????"Yeah?"
???? Xi Tong seemed to be used to being gentle and polite to others, and raised the corners of his lips at her: "Yes."
???? Just after answering, he seemed to have thought of something, and added: "By the way, you said last time that you wanted to eat at a tea restaurant near the central city. ?"
???? Hua Baihe looked at Yin Xiao and Xue Jiming, and replied, "Okay—"
???? "But you have to take me home before twelve o'clock."
???? Xi Tong: "Of course."
????So, the Yin family father and son, who originally had an opinion that she had lost her memory again and was not suitable to go out, no longer had any reason to object.
????...
???? Six thirty in the afternoon.
???? Central City, Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant.
???? Hua Baihe was wearing a new spring fashion, carrying a black messenger bag, wearing a red beret, with his hands in his coat pockets, and a white earphone in one ear. He arrived at the agreed place ahead of time. Standing in a daze.
???? People with memory loss always have something in common——
????It is easy to feel anxious about unfamiliar environments, there will be some small movements on the body to relieve tension, and it is easy to focus on one place for a long time.
???? At least when Hua Baihe realized that the person she was waiting for came to her, she had already been blank for another 15 minutes.
???? "Sorry, I'm late."
???? The young man in the dark blue suit smiled apologetically at her.
???? Hua Baihe shook his head, wanting to say "It's okay, I'm early", but when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind temporarily.
???? It seems that from the first time I saw Xitong, he was smiling for a large part of the time.
???? She thought to herself, won't her face freeze if she smiles like this?
???? This man...
???? How do you feel like you downloaded all the smile pictures of the templates, and then practiced them one by one in front of the mirror?
???? "Be careful, go up the escalator."
????Seeing that she was distracted again, Xi Tong raised his hand to support her elbow through the clothes. After supporting her to stand still, he immediately moved a little distance away, only making a fuss. A protective posture for fear of her falling backwards.
???? This person's every move is a gentleman. I don't know if it is because he is interested in his lover and respects her choice, or out of simple gentlemanly demeanor.
???? Hua Baihe noticed his movements from the corner of his eye, and there was a bit of thoughtfulness in his eyes.
???? Soon after, the two took their seats in the reserved booth in the lobby.
????Xi Tong lightly put the menu in front of her: "See what you want to eat."
???? Hua Baihe pressed the menu with one hand, but did not open it in a hurry. Instead, she looked at the man opposite with piercing eyes, until Xi Tong couldn't help laughing, and asked her:
???? "What are you doing looking at me like that?"
???? "You are not my boyfriend."
???? Hua Baihe said bluntly.
???? It was not until this time that Xi Tong showed surprise on his face for the first time:
???? "How can I see it?"
????he asks.
???? At this time, the waiter had already poured the tea for the two of them lightly. Hua Baihe raised his hand and rubbed the wall of the cup. He didn't think the hot tea was hot at all, and touched the warm place on the mouth of the cup , as if searching in my memory for a long time before answering him:
????"have no idea."
???? Hua Baihe continued: "Actually, you are very good-looking, and I know from the time we have been together that you should be the kind of person who has a gentle temper and is easy to bully, no matter what happens, you will listen to your wife. "
???? "If other girls have a boyfriend like you, they should be as happy as if they won the lottery. After all, you are rich, handsome, and even have a good temper."
???? Having said that, she jokingly added:
???? "Of course, what I said may be completely wrong. Maybe your heart is completely opposite to what you seem to be on the surface. You may seem to be a patient and polite person, but in fact you may be quite irritable."
???? Xi Tong on the opposite side: "..."
????all hit.
???? His eyes were slightly lowered, as if staring at the patterns on the table in front of him in a daze, thinking that the person opposite him had forced him to jump every day for a long time, and even wanted to ignore the rules once. Regardless of swearing, but finally can only vent through emoticons.
????She was obviously the person who made him wish he could go back in this life and never meet again...
???? "However, I found that I don't seem to like your type... right?"
???? Hua Baihe finished the last sentence.
????Only the person on the opposite side smiled, this time the smile stained his eyes, and he looked up at her: "You should have something to say later, right?"
???? Hua Baihe: "?"
???? Immediately afterwards, Xi Tong perfectly recounted a word she whispered in her heart that she didn't dare to say:
???? "Besides not liking my type, there should be another reason."
???? "Because you don't like boys at all."
???? After he uttered these words steadily, Hua Baihe found it strangely...
????My first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.
???? There is a feeling that the dust has settled.
???? It seems that I found my soul in an instant.
???? Hua Baihe thought, so I really don't like boys?
???? Thoughts like this in my heart, but the words that came out of my mouth became: "You are so clear about my preferences, it seems that our relationship before should be very good."
???? Xi Tong heard her words, but did not make a sound.
???? He just picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and thought——
???? If daily flirtations can be considered a good relationship, then he and Hua Baihe really are like glue.
???? "I don't know why, but before you came to me, I always felt that I had lost my memory, floating in this world, and nowhere seemed real."
???? She said: "But after you came, I suddenly settled down."
???? "If it wasn't for my certainty about my sexuality, I would have almost suspected myself because of your face.
???? Hua Baihe's words were a bit of a joke.
????But the people who heard her words suddenly became a little ugly.
???? Hearing her "suddenly calm down", Xi Tong was emotionally tumbling in the depths of her eyes, and her knuckles pinched the cup with some force.
???? He began to doubt whether his arrival had more positive or negative effects on this person.
????until--
???? "Well, but why did you say you are my boyfriend today?"
???? At this time, Hua Baihe asked him the most acute question.
???? Xi Tong paused for a long time while holding the tea, but this time he just took a deep look at her and didn't speak any more.
???? Hua Baihe was not willing to be the king of silence, and wanted to urge him, but suddenly found that Xi Tong took the initiative to take the initiative, and asked himself suddenly:
???? "You don't like my type, so do you know what type you like?"
???? Hua Baihe was a little speechless.
???? She wanted to say that of course I knew, but the words couldn't come out of her mouth.
???? At this time——
???? Unexpectedly, a vague image of a character appeared in her mind.
????Excellent, indifferent, proud, single-minded, except for himself alone, willing to reveal those small hobbies that are not announced to the public...
???? A person who is incomparably compatible with her soul.
Seeing her choking, Xi Tong meaningfully motioned her to look back.
???? Hua Baihe: "??"
???? A few huge question marks popped up on her forehead, and she just followed his gaze to look back——
????In the area behind the booth where the two were sitting, among the two women facing the direction of their table, one was the one who helped her call the police when she got lost on the road in broad daylight today. young lady.
???? It was also the young lady who asked her father, Yin Xiao, to have a meal and repay the favor.
???? Luo Sheng.
???? Hua Baihe still remembers this name.
????As if aware that someone was watching her, the girl who was eating raised her head unexpectedly, and her gaze just happened to collide with Hua Baihe's gaze through the translucent decorative screen.
????Almost the moment he met her eyes, Hua Baihe was sure that she recognized him.
????Luo Sheng was obviously a little surprised by her appearance here, and subconsciously smiled at her, but anyone could see that she was squeezed out hastily.
????I don't know why, but when she saw her smile, Hua Baihe's heart seemed to be pricked by a thin needle.
???? A very slight pain flashed by, as fast as a hallucination.
???? This sudden feeling made Hua Baihe a little subtle and novel.
???? Just when Xi Tong thought she had been watching for a long time and was about to strike up a conversation, she suddenly twisted her neck back.
???? Hua Baihe raised his head and pinched the back of his neck, tilted his head and said to him:
???? "It's been a long time, it's very sour——"
???? "Hey, why is the cup on your table missing?"
???? She rubbed her neck and wanted to drink water, picked up the teapot to fill herself with water, and was about to serve the other party, but she noticed the disappearance of the glass of water on Xitong's table.
???? Xi Tong, who had just pinched the cup wall out of cracks and was quietly repairing it under the table: "..."
????really.
????He thought that no matter what Hua Baihe became, he was destined to be his nemesis.
???? The young man looked very calm, but a small floating blue data cube appeared in the palm of his hand. He quickly converted the air near the palm of his hand into a code, and at the same time synthesized the code into the main component of the glass. A touch on the wall of the cup——
???? The cup immediately returned to its original state.
???? He calmly picked up the cup under the table, and gestured to Hua Baihe for his own cup:
????"here."
???? Fortunately, Hua Baihe didn't notice anything, and only secretly asked Xi Tong about Luo Sheng's question:
???? "Have I seen that young lady before?"
???? "I just remember that she helped me report to the police station this morning, but I always feel that I should know her very well."
???? Xi Tong asked smoothly: "How familiar?"
???? While asking questions, from his perspective, it was easy to see that Luo Sheng in the opposite booth whispered something to his friend, then got up and walked out, and was about to pass by their seats.
???? But Hua Baihe didn't see this scene.
???? He just stretched out his hand hesitantly and gestured two... three... four fingers to Xi Tong with great concentration.
???? After thinking about it, he secretly retracted his little finger, then bent it back in embarrassment, and then stretched it out again... This went back and forth several times, with a very tangled look.
???? Xi Tong didn't think too much, and helped her sum up:
???? "Three or four mature?"
???? He didn't think there was too much difference, and he didn't understand that there was such a slight difference, what was there to be entangled in and hesitant about.
???? Hua Baihe shook his head seriously and seriously, and said:
???? "She knows my depth, and I know her length."
????Xi Tong: "..."
Luo Sheng passing by: "..."
