Suo Qingjun Chapter 73

angry kitten

The late spring afternoon sunlight slanted in through the floor-to-ceiling windows and fell on the log coffee table in the living room. Spread out were the diary materials that Xu Baiyan had spent two nights organizing, including stars cut out of colored paper, a note page covered with Polaroids, and a three-page manuscript he had written. It was an exclusive diary prepared for Fa Xiao’s birthday. There were also small gold-gilded stickers carefully pasted on the corners, which were too delicate to be true.

Xu Baiyan was squatting next to the coffee table, lowering his head and gluing the last Polaroid with solid glue. He held a small glue stick with his fingertips, as if he was afraid of breaking something. The tip of his nose was slightly wrinkled due to concentration, his soft cheeks were slightly pink, and the tail of his eyes were curved, full of joy.There was a faint smell of citrus aroma in the living room, and soft ballads were playing on the speakers. Everything was just right and peaceful, until a soft “clang” came from the entrance, followed by Song Xu’s somewhat sloppy footsteps.

Song Xu had just returned from playing ball. He was still wearing a black jersey stained with sweat. His hair was slightly damp, and the strands of hair stuck to his smooth forehead. He was carrying a sports bag in his hand. He didn’t pay attention when he entered the door. He raised his foot and rubbed the corner of the coffee table. The force was not heavy, but it made the coffee table shake violently.

Xu Baiyan only felt his wrist shake, and the solid glue fell to the ground with a “clack”. To make matters worse, the notebook that was almost completed on the coffee table was shaken and slid to the edge of the table, flipped over on the floor, stained with dust, and the newly glued PolaroidThe edges were warped, and two of the hot stamping stickers were rubbed off. The most distressing thing was that the three pages of handwritten text were rubbed against the rim of the cold white cup he had just poured. The water stains spread and most of the handwriting was smeared and turned into a blurry ink ball.

At that moment, the sound of ballads in the living room seemed to fade away. Xu Baiyan squatted on the spot stiffly, looking at the handbook on the floor, his fingertips trembling slightly. After a long time, he slowly reached out to pick it up. His fingertips touched the blurred handwriting, and his eyes instantly turned red.

“Song Xu!” He raised his head, with a bit of suppressed hoarseness in his voice. His almond-shaped eyes were round, like an angry little kitten. The smile on his soft face was gone, only aggrieved and angry. “Can’t you just keep an eye on yourself when you walk? I stayed up two nights to do this, and next week is his birthday!”

Song Xu had just changed his shoes. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and glanced at the notebook in his hand, and then looked at the glue stick and water stains on the ground. He twitched the corners of his lips, not apologetically, but with a bit of usual casualness: “How big of a deal, just write it down after it’s blurred. If the sticker falls off, put it on again, why are you so angry?”

His tone was too casual, as if Xu Baiyan’s hard work was just something that could be easily reproduced. He even stretched out his hand to tug on his collar, with an indifferent look on his face. That nonchalant look was like a small thorn, piercing Xu Baiyan’s heart.

Xu Baiyan stood up abruptly, holding the wallet in his hand, and his knuckles turned white. He walked up to Song Xu and looked up at him. His cheeks were red because of anger, and the tip of his nose was pink. His voice was higher pitched, but it still had a tinge of emotion.He was kind of soft-spoken and said in an angry tone: “Write again? Do you know how long I have been looking for these materials? The polaroids are photos that I have saved for half a month, and the text has been revised four times. You can just write one more sentence. It’s easy to say!”

He was usually soft-tempered and good-tempered, and rarely spoke loudly, let alone got angry. Now he was really offended, his eyes were even redder, and water vapor was swirling in his eyes, but he resisted not falling down, and just stared at Song Xu, like a little dumpling with fried hair.

Seeing his appearance, Song Xu actually felt a little nervous in his heart. Most of his annoyance after returning from playing golf had dissipated, but he still had a tough mouth and couldn’t hold back the dignity of apologizing immediately. Instead, he stiffened his neck and said in a tough tone: “Then what else can I do? I didn’t mean it, you can’t let me lick the water stains off, right?”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Baiyan became even more angry.What he wanted was never any remedy, just a sincere apology and a little bit of concern, but Song Xu refused to give him even this, and instead choked him with words.

“You don’t care about me at all!” Xu Baiyan’s voice had a trembling tone of grievance, and he stretched out his hand to push Song Xu. His strength was not very strong, and he pushed on Song Xu’s strong chest, as if it was tickling, but full of energy, “No matter what I do, it doesn’t matter in your eyes. You have always been like this, careless and perfunctory!”

Song Xu was pushed by him and did not move. He lowered his eyes and looked at the red-eyed and bulging little man in front of him. He was as soft as a ripe peach. The hardness in his heart had actually loosened. But for some reason, he just didn’t want to lower his head, so he simply closed his eyes slowly.

His eyes are very well-shaped, with the ends of his eyes raised slightly. Normally, they are sparkling when they are open. Now he has his eyes closed, and his long eyelashes hang down, casting a small shallow shadow under his eyelids, which makes the bridge of his nose become taller and taller. His lip line is clear. He obviously looks like a fool, but he is good-looking.

But in Xu Baiyan’s opinion, this look was clearly perfunctory, it was clear that he didn’t want to listen to him, and it was clear that even arguing with him was troublesome.

“Song Xu!” Xu Baiyan’s anger suddenly spiked again, and his grievances doubled. He stretched out his hand to pry off his eyelids. The soft fingertips, with a slightly cool temperature, touched Song Xu’s eyelashes, causing the long eyelashes to tremble slightly. “Open your eyes! I’m talking to you. What do you mean by closing your eyes? Are you pretending to be deaf and dumb?”

His fingers were thin and soft, and he pried open Song Xu’s eyelids, but he had no strength. After doing so for a long time, Song Xu’s eyes were still tightly closed, and he didn’t even move his eyebrows.

“Open up! Did you hear me?” Xu Baiyan was anxious, standing on tiptoes, and stretched out his hands to pry his eyelids. His cheeks were redder from the exertion, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on the tip of his nose. The water vapor under his eyes was swaying around, as if it was about to fall, but he stubbornly refused, “Song Xu, don’t lie! Open your eyes and talk to me!”

His voice was urgent, angry, and a little aggrieved. It was like a kitten’s meow. It was soft and had no deterrent effect at all. On the contrary, it made people’s hearts itch.

With her eyes closed, Song Xu could clearly feel his soft fingers on her eyelids, smell the faint scent of milky shower gel on his body, hear his anxious breathing, and even feel the way he stood on tiptoes with his body slightly pressed against her, and his warm breath tickled his chin.

His heart had long since softened into a puddle, and there was no trace of anger left. He just suppressed his laughter and kept his eyes closed. He even deliberately tilted his head slightly to make him break it harder, wanting to see how cute this little guy could be when he was angry.

“Will you open it or not?” Xu Baiyan didn’t open it for a long time, his fingers were a little sore, anger and grievance were mixed together, his eyes were as red as a little rabbit, and his voice was a little crying, “If you don’t open it, I, I will ignore you! I also drank all the Coke you hid in the refrigerator, and pulled out the battery of your game console!”

His threats were soft, and they were all childish. Coke was Song Xu’s favorite, and the game console was his treasure. But when these words came out of Xu Baiyan’s mouth, they were not scary at all, but rather cute and cute.

Song Xu’s eyelashes trembled again, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly, but he still closed his eyes, and even said a soft “hmm”. His tone clearly said “I won’t open my eyes, what can you do to me.”

Seeing his helpless look, Xu Baiyan was furious and aggrieved. He lowered his hands, clenched his fists, and glared at Song Xu, who had his eyes closed. The tears in his eyes finally couldn’t be restrained. They fell down with a “click” and hit the back of his hand, which was warm.

This drop of tear fell, like hitting Song Xu’s heart. He panicked instantly and couldn’t pretend anymore, so he opened his eyes suddenly.

What caught his eye were Xu Baiyan’s red eyes, tears hanging on his face, the tip of his nose red, and his mouth slightly pursed. He looked aggrieved like a little kitten who had suffered a great injustice. He was staring at him with anger, resentment, and a bit of stubbornness in his eyes. It was so soft that it made your heart melt in an instant.

Song Xu’s Adam’s apple rolled, and he reached out to wipe his tears. His voice softened, and he said with a bit of panic: “Don’t cry, don’t cry, baby, I was wrong, I opened my eyes, I was wrong…”

But Xu Baiyan turned his head and avoided his hand, still staring at him, his tears falling even more fiercely, like beads with broken strings, but he still said in a strong voice: “Now you know you are wrong? It’s too late! I won’t pay attention to you!”

He said, turned around and wanted to leave, but Song Xu grabbed his wrist, pulled him into his arms, held him tightly, and put his chin on the top of his hair. His voice was full of helplessness, doting, and a little annoyed: “Baby, I was wrong, really wrong. I shouldn’t have perfunctory you, and I shouldn’t close my eyes and show off. Don’t be angry, don’t shed tears, okay?”

The little man in his arms was soft and still struggling vigorously, but he had no strength. He just sobbed in frustration and said in a soft voice: “You still know you are wrong…you just ignored me…you still closed your eyes…”

“It’s my fault, it’s my bastard,” Song Xu hugged him, patted his back gently, and wiped away the tears on his face with his fingertips. His movements were so gentle that he said, “I shouldn’t be like that, I shouldn’t care about your account. I will accompany you to do it again. I will help you find the materials, help you write the manuscript, and I will buy the latest stickers, okay? I can buy your favorite strawberry cake again and apologize, okay?”

Xu Baiyan sobbed in his arms, and the struggling movements slowly stopped. The tip of her nose rubbed against his chest, catching the faint smell of sweat on his body, but she felt relieved. The anger was still there, but it was not so fierce anymore. He just said dullly: “Then… then you have to help me glue all the stickers, write five pages of manuscripts, and wash the dishes for me for a week…”

“Okay, it’s all up to you,” Song Xu agreed immediately, lowered his head and kissed his red eyes, lovingly, “Pasting pictures, writing manuscripts, washing dishes, whatever you do is up to you, as long as the baby doesn’t get angry or cry.”

Xu Baiyan raised his eyes to look at him. His eyes were still red and his eyelashes were wet, like a small fan covered with dew. He glared at him, but his anger was gone, leaving only a hint of petty resentment: “Then do you dare to close your eyes and show off next time?”

“I don’t dare, I don’t dare anymore,” Song Xu pinched his soft cheeks and said with a smile, “Next time what the baby says, I will open my eyes and listen carefully, and I will never lie, okay?”

Seeing the smile and doting in his eyes, Xu Baiyan felt that most of the anger in his heart had finally dissipated, but he was still stubborn, nodded, and immediately added: “Also, you need to be more careful next time you walk, and don’t be careless again!”

“Okay, listen to the baby,” Song Xu hugged him, lowered his head and pecked his lips gently, sweetly, “My baby is the most well-behaved, don’t be angry, okay? Let’s go and get the account done again now, I’ll give you a hand, and I’ll be there when you call.”

Xu Baiyan leaned into his arms and nodded. The tip of his nose was still red, but he couldn’t help but curl the tail of his eyes, soft and soft, like a little cat with its fur smoothed.
