Chapter Seven 1
Tsurugahara was knocked down by that punch, and before he could get up, the man rushed at him again.
"Ruiqing, stop!" I shouted.
Yes, the person who suddenly rushed out was Ruiqing. I don't know why he appeared here, nor do I know why he punched and kicked Tsurugahara without explanation. But when I saw the blood flowing from the corner of Tsurugahara's mouth, my heart suddenly ached. For me, seeing Tsurugahara get hurt is more serious than getting hurt myself.
"Fight back! Why don't you fight back? You just want to show off in front of girls, right?" Ruiqing ignored my shouting and continued to punch Tsurugahara, but Tsurugahara just kept giving in and didn't have any intention of fighting back. The two of them were about the same height, but Ruiqing pushed him into a corner. Except for occasionally blocking him, he just let Ruiqing punch him hard.
"Tsurugahara!" I rushed over and tried to support Tsurugahara, but was stopped by Ruiqing. "Are you okay? Ruiqing, let me go!" I shouted, but Ruiqing ignored me.
"Why don't you say anything? Don't you have anything to say?" Ruiqing's eyes were burning with anger, so terrible, as if he wanted to eat Tsurugahara alive. Why was he so angry? But I didn't have time to think about it, I saw Ruiqing's fist hit Tsurugahara again.
"Ruiqing, stop hitting me, stop hitting me!" I rushed up again, hugged his arms, and tears suddenly flowed out. "Stop hitting me, I beg you." I stood in front of Tsurugahara and begged. I really didn't want to see Tsurugahara get hurt.
"Ruya, go away. People like him are not worthy of you." Ruiqing reached out to pull me away, but I stood there motionless.
"Don't hurt him," I said.
"But he hurt you."
Ruiqing threw a punch at me, but it deviated when it was about to hit Tsurugahara behind me. His fist hit the cold wall of the subway station with a dull sound. His white fingers seemed to be bleeding, but he looked at me as if he didn't feel any pain. He asked me in a hoarse voice: "He hurt you, doesn't your heart hurt?"
I looked at him guiltily, his eyes were full of pain, I nodded gently: "It hurts, but it will hurt me more if you hurt him."
"Ruya." A gentle voice suddenly sounded. I don't know when Tsurugahara stood up behind me. He whispered in my ear, "I'm sorry. I waited for you here today just to say sorry to you."
"Is it all just a sorry? Do you think your apology is precious?" Ruiqing yelled at him.
"It's indeed not precious," Tsurugahara wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked directly at Ruiqing, and smiled, "I made Ruya unhappy at the birthday party, and then so many things happened that made her sad. My apology is indeed not precious. But..." He paused, turned to look at me, his eyes full of reassuring warmth and determination, "I must say sorry to her, not only because of the guilt in my heart, but also to tell her that I have never laughed at her, nor have I ever looked down on her. I admire her, her kindness, and her loveliness."
"But..." Ruiqing was still saying something, but I couldn't hear a word.
Is this how I am in his heart? He has never looked down on me, never laughed at me, but always admired me? Is this true?
I turned around and saw his faint smile. He was still so handsome. Even though he was injured and even bleeding at the corner of his mouth, he was still so calm and elegant. Just like no matter what happened, the prince in the castle would always be able to maintain his innate noble temperament and use his wisdom to lead everyone to a happy and beautiful life.
"Why are you..." I stared at him blankly. I wanted to ask, but I didn't dare to. I could only stand there, staring blankly at the boy I liked, unable to utter a complete sentence.
"I'm sorry, Ruya." Tsurugahara looked at me seriously, "I'm really sorry for hurting you that day. I've been waiting for you at the subway station these days, but I didn't meet you until today. I hope you can forgive me, okay? I really..." He paused, a glimmer of persistence flashed in his eyes, "I really don't want you to blame me."
"Hmph! What's the point of saying this now?" Ruiqing came over and took my hand, looking at Tsurugahara viciously, "It was you who failed to protect Ruya back then, so don't pretend to be a good person here. Ruya, let's go." He said and was about to pull me away.
I stood there blankly, not knowing what to say. I was clearly hurt, but I didn't want to blame him. I really wanted to ask him if he had someone he liked, but I couldn't open my mouth. Ruiqing pulled me back, but my mind was still on Tsurugahara.
"Ruya." Tsurugahara held my hand from the other side. I turned my head and saw his worried eyes. "Please don't blame me."
"That's enough!" Ruiqing stepped forward and tried to hold my hand, but accidentally touched Tsurugahara's wound.
I heard Tsurugahara groan, and the sound woke me up instantly. I broke free from Ruiqing's hand and ran to Tsurugahara, looked at him with concern and said, "Heyuan, are you okay?" As soon as the words came out, even I was stunned. This was the first time I called him like that, and immediately a blush appeared on my cheeks. "I, can I call you Heyuan?" I lowered my head, and my voice was so soft that I could hardly hear it myself.
"Of course." Even with blood on the corners of his mouth, his smile was still so perfect, so perfect that it made people intoxicated. "I'm very happy that you call me that."
"Really?" I raised my head suddenly, with a big smile on my face. Oh, Ge Ruya, be reserved, be reserved!
"Yeah." He nodded slightly, "I'm glad you call me that."
Seeing his smile, my heart was beating like a deer. I lowered my head and whispered, "I, I...you are injured. I will accompany you to treat the wound."
The smile on his face deepened, and he nodded and said, "Okay."
I followed him and held his arm. He was stunned at first, then relaxed and let me hold his arm and walk forward step by step. Although I knew it was a bit exaggerated, it satisfied my wish to be close to him. I felt my heart beating unusually happily, and a sweet feeling surged in my heart.
"Ruya..." Ruiqing's voice suddenly came from behind.
I was stunned. I had been immersed in Tsurugahara's world and had forgotten Ruiqing's existence. Tsurugahara saw me stop and stopped too. I turned around and saw Ruiqing standing alone next to the billboard. Under the white light, his face looked extremely pale, his brows were furrowed, and his angular profile was shrouded in sadness.
"Ruya..." he called softly.
I felt a little reluctant, but I couldn't do anything. I looked up at Tsurugahara next to me again. He was still so elegant. I felt like I was poisoned. I didn't want to leave him. My happiness, anger, sorrow and joy were affected by him, but I was happy with it. If this wasn't poisoning, what was it?
"I'm sorry, Ruiqing." I looked at him guiltily and said, "Is your hand okay? I have to go with He Yuan to treat the wound. You go back first."
I looked back to the front again, supporting Tsurugahara and moving forward step by step. Ruiqing, I'm sorry, I will only feel happy when Tsurugahara is around, so please forgive me, forgive my willfulness and selfishness.
I didn't know how serious Tsurugahara's injury was, so I didn't pay much attention to him along the way. But when I came out of the pharmacy after buying medicine, I found that he had multiple bruises and scratches not only on his face, but also on his arms. I felt very uncomfortable. I didn't dare to touch him, for fear that I would hurt him. He must be in a lot of pain.
It was another bright and starry night. Tsurugahara and I sat on chairs in a small park not far from the pharmacy. The bright moonlight sprinkled in every corner, as if dyeing the quiet night with a layer of quiet white. Such a night easily makes people think of many things, such as homesickness, such as love, but at this moment I can't think of anything, because there is only one person in my heart.
I carefully dipped a cotton swab in disinfectant alcohol, then stared at the wound on Tsurugahara's face, but I didn't dare to touch him. I was afraid of hurting him, so I raised the hand holding the cotton swab and put it down, raised it again, and put it down again. Woo woo woo... Why am I so useless?
"Haha!" A low laugh sounded in my ears. I was startled and turned to look at the people around me. I saw that Tsurugahara's mouth corners were slightly raised, and his shining eyes were looking at me with a smile, "Don't be afraid."
"No, I..." I found that I was always so nervous in front of Tsurugahara that I couldn't speak. I took a deep breath, looked at the moon in the sky and prayed silently, please give me strength!
This time I looked at him seriously, although my face was still red: "I'm not afraid, you, you just bear with it." After saying that, I raised the cotton swab and wiped the injured area on Tsurugahara's face.
When the cotton swab in my hand touched Tsurugahara's fair skin, I couldn't help but feel moved. Although Tsurugahara still had a light smile on his face, it must be very painful. The corners of his mouth were swollen and bleeding. Disinfectant is not holy water, and it must be painful to rub it on the wound. I couldn't help but get closer to his face and blow gently on his injured area, fearing that I would touch his wound.
"Haha!" Tsurugahara suddenly laughed, which made me flustered. The cotton swab in my hand lost its balance and suddenly touched Tsurugahara's face. Then I heard him groan.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean it, I..."
I hurriedly lowered my head, like a child who had done something wrong, but my hand accidentally touched my schoolbag, which was hard. I was stunned for a moment, and then I remembered that it was the Gundam model that I had not given away, so I quickly took the Gundam model out of my schoolbag and handed it to Tsurugahara, saying shyly: "This... I didn't give it to you last time, so I'll give it to you now."
"Thank you." Tsurugahara took the model with a smile in his eyes. "You didn't give it to me on my birthday, so I thought I wouldn't receive it. I didn't expect you to keep it." He lowered his head and looked at the Gundam model carefully, then smiled and expressed his gratitude. "It looks good. I like it very much."
Hearing him say that, my heart suddenly started beating wildly. I raised my head, overwhelmed with excitement, and stammered, "Really? I..."
I couldn't find the right words to express my excitement, so I had to express my joy with action - I continued to apply medicine to Tsurugahara. Who knew that because I was too excited, the cotton swab once again touched Tsurugahara's wound.
"Ah!" This time Tsurugahara screamed in pain.
"Oh, yes, I'm sorry, I..." I was about to cry. Why do I always do bad things? Am I really that stupid?
"It's okay, I don't blame you. It's my own fault, and..." He stopped and looked at me steadily with his star-like eyes.
At this moment, we were so close that we could feel each other's breath. The light in his eyes was brighter and more beautiful than the moonlight. Such beautiful eyes, such a happy moment, I held my breath and listened to his words quietly.
"Also , the way you blow is silly, haha!" He laughed, this is the first time I saw him laugh so happily. I always thought that this person would only smile elegantly, but at this time he laughed so happily, even if he laughed loudly, he laughed so beautifully.
I sat there in a daze, but then I changed my mind and started to complain again. He said I was stupid? Humph, I'm not! I don't know how smart I am, but in front of him, I don't know where my intelligence has gone.
He put away his cheerful smile, looked at me seriously, and said, "But it's cute."
Am I hallucinating? He said I was cute?
"I, I..." I held the medicine bottle in one hand and pointed at myself with the other, too surprised to speak clearly, "Cute? You said I'm cute?"
Tsurugahara looked at me and didn't answer me. Instead, he looked up at the sky and said, "Ruya, look, the moon is beautiful tonight."
After hearing what he said, I looked up at the sky, and as soon as I took a look, I exclaimed, "Really!"
There is a bright moon in the night sky, and its light color makes it look more noble and elegant, like a classical beauty who has just dressed up. The stars next to it, although not many, are scattered around, adding a kind of quiet and noble beauty to it. It is so beautiful, really beautiful.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and the fragrance of the flowers in the garden came into my nose. Smelling such a nice flower fragrance, feeling the cool feeling brought to me by the night, and sitting next to me was the perfect honey Tsurugahara who I had always dreamed of. I felt that I was really happy at this moment.
"Ruya." Tsurugahara's voice sounded again, and I opened my eyes and looked at him, "Do you still blame me for the birthday party?"
"No." Seeing the person I like looking at me with such gentle eyes, I couldn't help but blush, lowered my head and replied softly, "Those things are not your fault. I, I have never blamed you."
