Love begins with binding a girl with problems

Chapter 81 Exchanging Secrets (6000 words)
The two ran all the way, not knowing whether the security guy behind them was still chasing them, so they rushed forward with all their strength and it was over.

Jiang Yu was watching the road seriously, and Lin Nanxi was looking up at Jiang Yu.

The autumn wind blew across his face, seeing the red marks on the young man's cheekbones, Lin Nanxi actually had the urge to hug him.

Because Jiang Yu was in a hurry when he ran, he was afraid of being caught by the security guards. Although even if he was not caught, he would still be recognized when he should be called for surveillance the next day, but it was better than catching a ready-made one.

Therefore, Jiang Yu didn't know the specific direction when he ran.

Seeing that the road ahead was getting narrower and narrower, and the road surface transitioned from asphalt road to cracked concrete road, Jiang Yu knew that he seemed to be going in the wrong direction.

He absolutely didn't mean to run to Lin Nanxi's house on purpose!
"Didn't I let you go first?"

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and spoke first.

I didn't mean to blame, just a little bit annoyed because I ran in the wrong direction.

Lin Nanxi lowered her face looking at him, like a child who bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and didn't say a word.

Jiang Yu pursed his lips, the hands held together by the two had already become sweaty, but neither of them wanted to let go.

The pace of escape gradually slowed down. Lin Nanxi's slender white fingers were thin, and the elastic skin made this hand feel soft and skinny. It is difficult to find an appropriate word to describe it. Compared with using the body to intuitively Jiang Yu is more immersed in the feeling of the soul.

It's like...holding a treasure.

Lin Nanxi's right hand lay quietly in Jiang Yu's hand like this, Jiang Yu slightly retracted his grip on her hand, and opened his mouth again to break the silence.

"...you heard everything?"

Completely different from Jiang Yu who was in a state of rage just now, Jiang Yu at this time has completely calmed down, and even his tone is much gentler.

Thinking of the possibility that Lin Nanxi might have heard every sentence of the conversation just now, Jiang Yu felt a little uneasy.

"...Yes, I heard." Lin Nanxi nodded slightly.

The hand that grabbed her tightened a little more.

This was Jiang Yu's only response to Lin Nanxi's words.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived outside the rusty iron door.

The canteen downstairs is still the dilapidated and old one, but because it was washed by the heavy rain the day before yesterday, the dirt on the streets and alleys has been cleaned up a lot, the dirty sewage pits have receded, and even the air is a little fresher.

Jiang Yu stopped, meaning that it was enough for him to be sent here, and let Lin Nanxi go upstairs and go home by himself.

But Lin Nanxi didn't intend to let go. She took a step forward and found that Jiang Yu was still where she was, so she turned around and asked in a low voice.

"Come up with me?"

It was obviously a question sentence, but in Jiang Yu's ears, it was directly judged as an affirmative sentence.

An inexplicable sense of tension arises spontaneously, and the palms of the hands are sweating.

When stepping into the rusty iron gate, Jiang Yu officially had the feeling of breaking into Lin Nanxi's life.

The time when I was lying on the bed and feeling her movement at home was not counted. Although that was also a way to participate in her life, the two bodies were separated by several kilometers.
But now, this holding hand makes the distance between them zero.

There is no greenery inside the community, only the bare concrete floor, and a tricycle parked obliquely against the low wall. There are unknown sundries piled up in the corridor, the light is very dim, and there is a faint musty smell from the tip of the nose.

Jiang Yu's eyes were always observing the surrounding environment, and he looked at Lin Nanxi who was walking in front. The snow balls on the back of the girl's head were moving happily, and the clean hair accessories formed a conspicuous contrast with the ashen white wall.

When they came to the third floor, the two of them loosened their hands naturally, and Lin Nanxi opened the door with the key.

The old-fashioned anti-theft door creaked open.

Jiang Yu stretched his head and took a look inside.

Unlike the messy scene in the corridor, Lin Nanxi's home was unexpectedly clean and tidy.

The living room is not that big, but there are a lot of things, starting from the books that reach the ceiling, to the little boy's toys, and storage boxes of different sizes, all of which are arranged in an orderly manner.

Jiang Yu smelled the faint fragrance that belonged to Lin Nanxi's body, this smell always made him feel at ease.

"Brother...hasn't come back yet?"

There was no one in the living room, and the open door didn't turn on the light. It didn't look like anyone was at home.

"Well, sometimes the childcare class will organize children to play games, so they will get home late." Lin Nanxi replied in a low voice.

From the heartbeat coming from under the chest, it is already hard to tell whether Jiang Yu is nervous or she is nervous.

Before that, Lin Nanxi didn't even have friends, let alone bring friends of the opposite sex home.

"You sit here."

Lin Nanxi pulled Jiang Yu's clothes into the room, then put his hand on Jiang Yu's shoulder, forcing him to sit down.

Jiang Yu was about to bow down to take off his shoes, but was pulled by Lin Nanxi, so he jumped all the way to the TV and was forced to sit on the bench.

"Don't you want to change your shoes?" he asked.

"There is no need to change it."

Lin Nanxi was responding verbally, but he had already entered the small room on the right without looking back.

Jiang Yu, who was alone, was at a loss for a moment, looking at Lin Nanxi just like Lin Nanxi used to look at him—like a little duck left behind.

Jiang Yu had a little impression of the room Lin Nanxi entered.

He remembered the mahogany wardrobe inside. When Lin Nanxi sent him a photo last time, that style of wardrobe appeared in the background of the photo, so Jiang Yu guessed that that room should be Lin Nanxi's room.

Jiang Yu took a few glances silently, after all, it was a girl's boudoir, peeking at the boudoir was somewhat exciting for Jiang Yu who had zero experience with the opposite sex.

It wasn't until Lin Nanxi half-closed the door that Jiang Yu only had the wooden door covered with embossed cartoon stickers in Jiang Yu's field of vision, that Jiang Yu was willing to look away.

Looking around the surrounding environment again, Lin Nanxi's family situation is similar to Jiang Yu's imagination.

At the end of the living room is the kitchen. The faucet there is a very old iron faucet. There is no natural gas in the kitchen. The water pipe connected to the faucet is directly a cold water pipe, so every time Lin Nanxi washes the dishes, Jiang Yu feels cold hands.

The pot used for cooking is an induction cooker, and there is no range hood above the head. No wonder Jiang Yu always feels the smell of oily smoke is pungent, and because the induction cooker is small, Lin Nanxi always gets burned.

From the kitchen to the bathroom, Jiang Yu observed the entire small room, and he found that every detail here can be traced from the body's perception.

Obviously it was the first time to come to Lin Nanxi's house, but it gave Jiang Yu a familiar and friendly feeling.

Jiang Yu just sat there obediently, even if he was bored, he didn't plan to take out his phone to look at it. Every second he stayed here was precious to him.

"Wow."

The door of Lin Nanxi's room opened, and she appeared in Jiang Yu's field of vision with a small box in her arms.

"My brother used to get bruised when he was naughty. This is the medicine box he used when he was a child..."

Lin Nanxi carried out the small medicine box and put it on the round table.

Jiang Yu watched as she rummaged through the box, threw a few expired bottles into the trash can, and finally found a small bottle of iodine that hadn't been opened yet.

Jiang Yu instantly understood what Lin Nanxi wanted to do to him.

The cotton swab soaked in iodine was pressing against his head, and Jiang Yu's body was tactically leaned back.

"Don't move." Lin Nanxi grabbed Jiang Yu who had slipped away.

Jiang Yu's back was already leaning on the bench. The bench was made of wood without any cushions, and it was even a little uncomfortable to lean on it.

With nowhere to retreat, Jiang Yu could only let Lin Nanxi approach. She put one hand on Jiang Yu's side, and knelt on one knee between Jiang Yu's separated legs. As usual, a little shy.

After she got close enough, Jiang Yu didn't dare to show his anger.

"Wait……"

"hiss."

The two gasped at the same time.

"it hurts."

"it hurts."

Iodine is more bactericidal, but at the same time, it is also very irritating to the skin.

The two responded in unison. Lin Nanxi closed her eyes in pain. After a long while, those watery eyes slowly opened.

On the top of Jiang Yu's cheekbones and at the end of the eyes, I don't know if the person who fought was wearing a ring on purpose. The scars on that place are not like punches, but obvious abrasions, bloody marks. , Lin Nanxi felt distressed when she saw it.

Lin Nanxi took a cotton swab and carefully applied it twice. Jiang Yu didn't move the whole time, just watching her quietly.

In Lin Nanxi's pure eyes, Jiang Yu saw a look called 'caring' for the first time.

It turns out that being cared about is such a feeling...

Different from family affection and friendship, Jiang Yu now only has an urge to hug her.

"I……"

Jiang Yu's lips moved, and just as his voice was pronounced, he suddenly felt that there was too much interference.

He cleared his throat, and continued: "The night before yesterday, my aunt called and told me that something happened to my cousin recently... So I took Da Niu and the others to have a look."

Jiang Yu told the ins and outs of what happened yesterday.

He told Lin Nanxi that the reason why he didn't want to speak out was because telling about his younger brother in front of Lin Nanxi would make Jiang Yu feel like he was uncovering his own scars.

This feeling is also very strange to say, Jiang Yu doesn't want to expose any weakness in front of Lin Nanxi.

Only Lin Nanxi, he just wanted her to see his good side.

But now, he kind of wants to talk about his past.

"I've always been... not very good at dealing with people."

Jiang Yu turned his head away, and he didn't know whether it was convenient for Lin Nanxi to give himself medicine, or if it was just a little awkward and embarrassing.

"Because I'm always alone at home, so at school, I don't want to be a fringe person anymore... I take the initiative to socialize, never refuse anyone who comes, and help my friends when they need help."

Jiang Yu muttered softly, while Lin Nanxi carefully rubbed iodine on him. Apart from the top of the cheekbones, there were also red marks on Jiang Yu's temples. Lin Nanxi wiped everything carefully.

Jiang Yu couldn't feel the pain, and he didn't know whether the pain was transmitted to Lin Nanxi.

He never took the initiative to talk about these pasts, but since Lin Nanxi is willing to be the listener, Jiang Yu will continue to talk.

He only hoped that Lin Nanxi would not pity himself.

"...The feelings that come in exchange for sincerity are not necessarily true. The person who came to block me at the school gate today is my best friend who used to play with me in junior high school."

"Also, these high school friends of mine seem to be many, but I can't find any one who is really heart-to-heart. I don't dare to test them at all. I can only maintain a seemingly close social distance so that they won't feel that I am Alienation, so that I will not feel uncomfortable."

"In this way, it lasted for the third year."

"So, my optimism, my 'gregariousness,' is just a veneer for me to disguise myself."

After saying these words, Jiang Yu finally felt that a big stone in his mind had been lifted.

Just a sore nose.

He obviously didn't want Lin Nanxi to sympathize with him, but Jiang Yu started to empathize with him first.

He is just a teenager who has just grown up, and his heart is as fragile as his peers, and no one is stronger than the other.

"...I'm not as glamorous as you seem on the surface."

Jiang Yu took a light breath and turned his head completely to the side.

Lin Nanxi put down the cotton swab in his hand and gently closed the iodine bottle.

Lin Nanxi said before that she was very envious of Jiang Yu's friends. In Lin Nanxi's eyes, Jiang Yu was always surrounded by the crowd, that shining bright young man.

But after Jiang Yu said these words, Jiang Yu knew that his image in Lin Nanxi's mind might be subverted.

Jiang Yu knew that he didn't have any bright spots on his body, the only thing that could be called a 'strength' was probably making friends.

But only Jiang Yu himself knows that this advantage is only based on lies.

Now, the lie is exposed.

He no longer shines in Lin Nanxi's eyes, but he is just one of many ordinary passers-by.

"During this time, it's good to know you."

Jiang Yu rubbed his eyes and said.

Iodine is a bit smoky.

As the alcohol volatilizes, that gas gets into your eyes and always makes your eyes water.

These are physical tears, not emotional.

Jiang Yu comforted himself in this way.

Lin Nanxi was assimilated by his movements, and they raised their hands and rubbed their eyes together.

Jiang Yu heard her weak voice mixed with her breath.

"Yes, me too."

"During this time, thank you Jiang Yu for the scald medicine, lunch, grilled sausage, hamburger, and the exercise book I won from the sports meeting..."

Lin Nanxi sorted out the recent events in his mind.

Suddenly, she felt that she had so much to thank Jiang Yu, so many that she couldn't even count them.

Jiang Yu stared at her blankly.

In his view, there is no difference between saying thanks and saying goodbye.

Lin Nanxi is completely disappointed in herself now.

She actually hated her, so the next step is to say goodbye, right?
After all, Jiang Yu's grades are poor, his learning attitude is very problematic, his social mode is even more messy, he doesn't have much patience with anyone, and he can't find the slightest advantage in his whole body.

But how to say goodbye when the body is bound.

Treating the other party's perception as a part of life and not ignoring it... seems to be a way of saying goodbye.

Jiang Yu lowered his head and thought about these questions, and felt relieved after thinking about it.

"And then...?" He was waiting for Lin Nanxi to continue.

Lin Nanxi was still rubbing her eyes, Jiang Yu saw the hot tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes.

Hearing Jiang Yu's question, Lin Nanxi raised her wet eyes and tilted her head.

"Then……?"

"There is no more."

"There is no next, what is the next?" Jiang Yu asked in surprise.

"Just... I just feel that Jiang Yu has taken good care of me during this time, so I just want to thank Jiang Yu... If I insist on the next one... Can you give me advice for the rest of my life?" Lin Nanxi looked at Jiang Yu with wet eyes .

Jiang Yu looked at her beautiful face from a close distance, and her aggrieved eyes after getting wet.

Now Jiang Yu was completely stunned.

"It's you who took care of me during this time... Accompany me to the sports meeting, give me school uniforms, and help me find the answers when the teacher answers my questions..."

Also, what does "Teach me for the rest of my life" mean, it is easy to be misunderstood, okay? ? ?

"you,"

Jiang Yu hesitated for a while, there were too many questions in his mind, and he didn't know where to start.

"Aren't you saying this to say goodbye to me?"

"Why do you want to say goodbye to Jiang Yu?" Lin Nanxi asked, tilting her small head.

It's not goodbye, so why suddenly say thank you! !This is very bad for the human heart! !
Jiang Yu had a lot of complaints in his mind, but he held back.

"Because I'm not the same as you see me..." Jiang Yu's tone was a little discouraged.

Lin Nanxi put her hands on both sides of Jiang Yu's waist, Jiang Yu was sitting, she was half kneeling, and her body moved closer to Jiang Yu's face.

This time, her peaceful face and aggrieved teary eyes were more clearly displayed in front of Jiang Yu.

"Jiang Yu..."

"Uh-huh?"

Jiang Yu was a little afraid to look into these eyes today, and looked away guiltily.

Lin Nanxi still looked at his face, and when she spoke, her breath gently blew across Jiang Yu's cheeks, causing a trace of itchiness.

"Did you just make up my impression of you in your mind?"

"Am I so superficial? How can I only look at the surface?"

"Although there are many friends who envy Jiang Yu...but," Lin Nanxi said with emphasis, "the Jiang Yu in my eyes is far more than that."

"The Jiang Yu I saw was better than the Jiang Yu that Jiang Yu thought of in his mind."

"You said you didn't have any close friends, but I saw Jiang Yu treating every friend sincerely; you said you have a bad personality, but Jiang Yu and I are very gentle in every detail of getting along..."

"So, can you stop belittling yourself?"

Lin Nanxi supported her arms and lowered her body.

The girl's waist bends out a delicate curve, and the large white sweater hangs loosely on her slender shoulders.

Her wet eyes were a bit angry, but when she narrowed her eyes slightly, Jiang Yu felt that such eyes were charming.

Jiang Yu felt his heart beating so hard that he could only hear his own heartbeat. Lin Nanxi's voice was getting farther and farther away, and all he could think of was the urge to hug her.

In fact, Jiang Yu only needs to lift his hands on both sides of his body, put them on Lin Nanxi's slender waist, and hug her.

But what about the next step after hugging her?

There was no one in this quiet little room, Jiang Yu didn't think the hormones he stimulated could be controlled.

"Jiang Yu..."

"Uh-huh???"

In such a state of mind, at such a close distance, and being called by his name so affectionately, Jiang Yu's brains will be lost together.

I don't know if this bad woman did it on purpose.

Lin Nanxi seemed to really appreciate his flustered look!

Among other things, Jiang Yu's emotion that throbbed even in his pores must have been transmitted to Lin Nanxi!

At this moment, Jiang Yu still doesn't think Lin Nanxi is very bad. Lin Nanxi, a cowardly and cowardly girl, has always been in Jiang Yu's hands... But for a moment, Jiang Yu felt that he was being backlashed. .

This little guinea pig, which looks harmless to humans and animals...is ready to fight back!

"Do you know why I brought you up here?"

Lin Nanxi retracted her arms, and seemed to realize that she was too close to Jiang Yu. The distance just now belonged to the distance that would have kissed her face. She realized that she was blushing and shy, so she pressed down His calves were retracted, and he sat sideways beside Jiang Yu.

Now Lin Nanxi looks like the obedient Lin Nanxi again.

"Use, take medicine?" Jiang Yu said uncertainly.

Lin Nanxi smiled slightly.

"Stupid, of course it's an exchange of secrets..."

"secret?"

"Because I just accidentally heard the secret of Jiang Yu's past, so I also want to tell Jiang Yu the secret."

Lin Nanxi pointed to the old furniture in the room and said, "These are my secrets."

"My father left early, and my younger brother passed away for some reason not long after he was born. After my father passed away, I left nothing but this old dilapidated house. My mother brought me and my younger brother up alone..."

"Didn't you ask me before, why do you always apologize? The inferiority factor in my heart is a little bit more, and it's actually the way my mother taught me to deal with things."

"My mother told me when my father left that the family will have no backing in the future, and no one will protect us. We have to be strong... If we can apologize when something happens, we should apologize. If someone finds us, we only have Suffer."

"I know that just me, my mother, and my younger brother can't solve any problems. My mother, like me, has a weak personality...so, the word 'sorry' is always on my lips."

"This kind of behavior has always been my amulet in school, but later, I found out that these three words don't work with Jiang Yu. Every time after I apologize, Jiang Yu always shows a very serious expression. I don't even have the guts to apologize."

"I didn't mean to kill you..." When Jiang Yu heard this, he repeatedly defended himself.

"I know," Lin Nanxi took Jiang Yu's hand, "Only Jiang Yu doesn't seem to need my apology."

Jiang Yu turned his body sideways, and the two faced this side, their eyes intersecting.

Lin Nanxi's red eyes became moist again, and her voice was still gentle.

"So, I want to say that I, like Jiang Yu, have nothing."

"Then we really feel sorry for each other..." Jiang Yu said.

"En!" Lin Nanxi nodded vigorously.

"Besides, we know each other's secret, so it's evened?"

"Yeah!" Lin Nanxi nodded again.

"Then... hug one for our great friendship?"

When Lin Nanxi heard that Jiang Yu was about to hug her, she subconsciously leaned back in embarrassment.

However, she quickly made mental preparations, lowered her shy face, and nodded slightly.

Jiang Yu didn't expect to get Lin Nanxi's consent, so he raised his hand impatiently.

Gently, as if afraid of hurting her, his wrist was slowly placed on her waist.

This feeling is very strange, and it is really different from sleeping with a pillow in your arms last night.

Jiang Yu felt that he was not simply hugging a person, but the only treasure in this life.

However, the screen has not had time to freeze for three seconds.

The bodies that are getting closer have not yet fully embraced each other's arms.

"Bang bang bang,"

"Sister, I'm going to bring the keys... Are you home yet?"

Three knocks on the door sounded like thunder, and both Lin Nanxi and Jiang Yu woke up at the same time.

Jiang Yu was shocked, he was guilty of staying at Lin Nanxi's house, and now he secretly hugged Lin Nanxi.

But Jiang Yu quickly realized that the other party was Lin Nanxi's younger brother, only a five-year-old child, so there was no need to worry so much.

But Lin Nanxi's side is obviously different.

Lin Nanxi was more flustered than Jiang Yu, her little face was as red as a burning sun.

She hastily grabbed Jiang Yu's hand and made Jiang Yu stand up.

Jiang Yu didn't dare to speak casually.

He saw Lin Nanxi raised a finger, made a silent gesture, and then led him to trot all the way.

Jiang Yu didn't know where Lin Nanxi was taking him, but Lin Nanxi's house was only this big, and the two of them wandered around the living room like headless chickens.

In the end, Lin Nanxi felt ruthless and brought Jiang Yu into her room.

Jiang Yu was surprised to see Lin Nanxi open his closet.

and stuffed him in...

'Hide well! Lin Nanxi told Jiang Yu with lip language.

After all, the closet door was closed.

Jiang Yu, a 1.8-meter tall man, was left in a mess in the closet.

　Afraid that breaking the chapters in the middle will make everyone uncomfortable, so the three chapters were merged in one breath!
