MTL - Deliberately Contaminated-Chapter 30

Mingshuang and Jiang Huai were walking together in the dark street. The snow was getting heavier and heavier. Jiang Huai suddenly stopped and Mingshuang stopped. Then, he took off his scarf and wrapped it around Mingshuang.

Mingshuang had just come out of the Jiang family banquet, and the clothes she had changed temporarily were a little thin. At this time, the tips of her ears exposed under her hair were red from the cold. Jiang Huai gently wrapped the scarf on her, and the boy's fingertips accidentally touched hers. The earlobe, but did not move away deliberately, paused for a moment, then, gently and patiently circled twice, wrapping the scarf tightly.

Mingshuang looked up at him, her amber pupils were bright and sweet, and there was still his warmth and breath on the scarf.

There are still two days before the New Year. Although it is getting late, people still come and go on the streets. The neon lights of the shops are on. Mingshuang doesn't want to go home. Huai accompanied her.

Walking out of a snack bar, Mingshuang ate to his heart's content, touched his belly, and asked Jiang Huai, "Jiang Huai, I will accompany you to celebrate the New Year this year, okay?"

Jiang Huai got used to her daily whims. He asked, "Aren't you with your family?"

Mingshuang said, "Yes."

"But I want to spend time with you. Then I sneak out in the middle of the night with someone behind my back?" Mingshuang said nonsense, "You come to pick me up."

Jiang Huai is a good boy and is used to following the rules. It is impossible to agree to this kind of thing. Unexpectedly, the boy's dark pupils stared at her and only said, "Okay."

Mingshuang, "…"

She said a little unhappily, "No, there are too many people in the family, I can't come."

"How could you agree?" She muttered as she walked, "Shouldn't you tell me to stay at home." It didn't look like the Jiang Huai she knew.

The little liar is always like this, and the lies to trick him will come at will.

The boy didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, as if he wanted to keep her face deeper in his mind.

She was leaving less than four months before the college entrance examination.

Jiang Huai had a hunch that when she left, she would never come back for a lifetime. If he went to find her again, he would never find her again. Mingshuang's interest came and went so quickly. At that time, even if he found her again, everything might have changed.

Whether it was selfish or anything else, he wanted to try his best to seize all the time he could spend with her.

Mingshuang quickly forgot about this matter. Fireworks are prohibited in most parts of the main urban area of ​​Tancheng. Only a special area is set aside to allow them to be set off in the next few days. Mingshuang sees it from a distance and pulls it. Go with Jiang Huai to play.

She had a momentary intention, and there were no fireworks sellers around. Mingshuang saw that others were itching to play, so she went to the nearby specialty store to buy a set of model aircraft, and exchanged a box of fireworks with a child.

There are all kinds of varieties in the box. Mingshuang threw away all those that seemed mild and ineffective, and kept all those that seemed to be explosive and bluffing.

She squatted beside the box, took out one by one, and asked Jiang Huai, "What is this?"

"Two kicks."

"That's it."

"Cannonball."

Mingshuang asked, "How do you know each other?"

She was a little unimaginable. Could it be that Jiang Huai was a skinny child who liked to play with fireworks and firecrackers when he was a child? It's too inconsistent.

The boy's voice came from the wind, very shallow, "I've seen others play before."

As a child, he didn't have a single friend. During the Chinese New Year, Yu Yan was kicked out of the house and watched from a distance as nearby children gathered to play firecrackers. Over time, they knew everyone.

Mingshuang put a second kick, and the fireworks rushed out towards the river in the night sky. Jiang Huai covered her ears in time, and soon, fireworks started to be set off across the riverside, Mingshuang stood by the railing, happily looking up at the night sky.

Under the blooming fireworks, she turned to see Jiang Huai's face, but unexpectedly saw that he was looking at her, and seeing Mingshuang looking over, she did not look away as usual.

The young man's face looked handsome and calm, as good-looking as when she first saw it.

"Do you want to play?" Mingshuang suddenly asked him, with a sly smile, "Half of it for you."

"It's fun to play together." She shoved the lighter into Jiang Huai's hand, "I'll tell you a secret."

"Actually, this is my first time playing firecrackers."

Ming Licheng was strict with her when she was a child. Before Yu Yin died, Ming Shuang was a well-behaved little girl with delicate braids and a beautiful dress. She greeted her elders obediently. Ming Licheng likes to bring her daughter very much. Attend various occasions. Later, she started to be rebellious, and only followed Xu Tianbai and the others to play wildly outside, but at that time, Xu Tianbai and others had already passed the age of playing with fireworks.

"I'll keep half of what I have in the future." The girl's pupils were bright, reflecting the stars in the sky, and she said generously, "I'll make it up with you."

The young man just lowered his long eyelashes and didn't say a word. Mingshuang's hand was kept warm by his holding, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that the strength of his fingers suddenly increased, as if he was out of control, and she felt a little pain in her grip. .

"Jiang Huai?" She frowned and looked up at the boy.

The strength in his hand was loosened, and he had returned to normal, only with a light hum.

It was past midnight, Mingshuang turned on her phone and saw that Lu Cuo had called her three or four times. The firecrackers exploded so loudly that she didn't hear it at all. Mingshuang sent Lu Cuo a short text message, "Outside, Go back by yourself later."

She lives in Lu's house these past few days. Lu Cuo has a heavy sense of responsibility and feels that he is currently her guardian and has the duty to take care of her. After he discovered that Mingshuang had disappeared from the Jiang family banquet, he immediately began to ask around.

They said they didn't see Mingshuang until they asked Jiang Qianzhang.

Shou Xing looked in a very bad mood, with a dark face, indicating that Shuang and the wild man ran away, Lu Cuo's heart sank, and she immediately called Ming Shuang, but she never answered. As time passed, he became more and more irritable. Simply drive someone out to find it.

Mingshuang finally replied to the text message, he immediately called again, and was pressed by Mingshuang.

Mingshuang frowned, if it wasn't for Lu Cuo, she might have been blocked directly.

Lu Cuo's text message brought her back to reality, reminding her of Jiang's banquet and Jiang Chengting, as well as Jiang Chengting's mention of Jiang Huai.

Mingshuang said, "Do you still remember that uncle of the Jiang family, Jiang Chengting, the one I mentioned to you last time was Jiang Qianzhang's father."

Jiang Huai's footsteps seemed to slow down for a moment, and he didn't make a sound.

"He actually asked about you today, so I said I didn't know you well." Mingshuang said, "It's strange, how could he know about you."

She looked at Jiang Huai, the young man's profile was beautiful and indifferent in the night, his face was paler than usual, after a while, he whispered, "I don't know."

The two faces gradually overlapped in his mind, Mingshuang shook his head, trying his best to get the ridiculous thought out of his mind.

The clock struck midnight, the streets were full of people, and the two walked back together.

Mingshuang's hands are warm and small, and so is her. The whole person's tones seem to be warm, soft and bright. He looked at her for a moment, as if he wanted to engrave this picture in his memory as much as possible.

- Can you not leave?

This sentence was not asked in the end, and now he has no way to decide whether Mingshuang will stay or not.

For the first time in eighteen years, he hated his weakness.

He wants to keep her by his side - maybe it's selfishness, this desire is getting stronger and stronger, day and night, he wants her by his side, belongs to him alone, he lied to her. He doesn't mind and doesn't want to share anything with others.

"If I could be admitted to a prestigious school in China, I wouldn't have to go abroad." Mingshuang suddenly said, "It's a pity that I didn't study hard before.

Jiang Huai just looked at her, her pupils were dark and quiet, and she didn't say a word.

Mingshuang suddenly stopped.

In front of the convenience store, a black Mercedes-Benz stopped slowly on the street and stopped in front of the two of them. The license plate of the car was very familiar, xAS0917. Sure enough, Lu Cuo opened the door and got down from the passenger seat.

It was Lu Cuo's car. The number of the license plate was carefully selected by him. Mingshuang protested several times and asked him to change it.

The man was also looking at the pair of boys and girls on the street. He remembered that this beautiful boy was entangled with Mingshuang over and over again, and he seemed to be a classmate she met at the new school.

Mingshuang also saw Lu Cuo, obviously very unhappy, because she grew up with Lu Cuo, she gave him a bit of face, and did not have an immediate attack.

"What are you doing here?" She forcibly suppressed her unhappiness, "Didn't I text you back?"

"How can I rest assured knowing that you sent the text message yourself." Lu Cuo said.

The man's face was very gentle, and he reasoned with her, "Fifteen, it's so late, you're a girl alone and you don't answer the phone, I'm very worried about you."

"Uncle Ming entrusted you to me, and I have to ensure your safety."

He took Mingshuang's hand, "I know you don't like me taking care of you, you at least answer the phone and let me be sure of your safety, so that I won't disturb you."

Mingshuang was pulled by him, but she still looked unhappy. She used to be a child in front of Lu Cuo. She was also a sullen gourd when she was a child. When she was unhappy, she didn't say a word. It seemed to cross his body inadvertently, "If you want to come out to play, tell me in advance next time, and I will accompany you."

"You're so annoying." Mingshuang finally spoke, and Lu Cuo just smiled, not annoyed, "Okay, go home quickly, the family is waiting for us to go back."

"Goodbye after that year." Mingshuang waved to Jiang Huai. She didn't like to say more in front of people, so after saying goodbye to him briefly, she got into the car.

But Lu Cuo didn't get in the car immediately.

"Our two are family friends, fifteen years old and naughty." Lu Cuo said politely, "I hope you can stay away from her."

"Her future is already set."

The man and the young man looked at each other from a distance, Jiang Huai was taller, but because he was still young, his figure still retained a bit of youthful innocence. The young man was quiet and his face showed no emotion. A look of contempt crossed her beautiful face.

Everyone knew that she just wanted to play.

Who will take it seriously.

The author says:

Xiao Huai was so pitifully manipulated!

Before they broke up, they would have a relationship, which was very sweet, but it ended with Xiao Huai being abandoned. After repeating this a few times, Xiao Huai was completely broken.

I will try my best to see if I can write two more today.
