After breakfast on the first day of the new year, Luo Yan went to play with Lu An and Ji Qingbai. The Spring Festival was fun everywhere. She came back after playing outside for a day and almost had dinner.
At eight o'clock in the evening, she and Qi Lu were eating sweets and watching sketches on the sofa, and the mobile phone on the coffee table lit up.
The moment they saw the girl on the lock screen, both Qi Lu and Luo Yan were stunned.
Isn't that Cheng Yi?
The comment of the person who sent the message was [girlfriend].
Girlfriend: [I heard that there is a Qingqing bar over there in Qingshi Lane. Do you want to go and play together? 】
[I haven’t seen your sister for a long time. Let’s take her with you. I’ve prepared a New Year’s gift for the children. 】
The screen of the mobile phone, which had not been used for a long time, automatically turned off. Luo Yan continued to watch sketches with Qi Lu. The orange was a little sour when he put it in his mouth.
As soon as Qi Si entered the house from the backyard, Qi Lu said: "Someone has sent you a new message."
Qi Si walked over and picked up his phone to look at it. Qi Si paused for a moment, then picked up his coat and left, "I'm going out."
Soon, the man's back disappeared into the night.
After watching the skit for a while, Luo Yan said she was sleepy and returned to the bedroom holding a hot water bottle.
There are two bookshelves in the girl's bedroom. Since she entered junior high school, her temperament has stabilized a lot and she has begun to like reading.
I plugged in my headphones and read my favorite book. Ten minutes had passed without turning a page. I could see the black and white words in my eyes but couldn't read my heart. I simply put it back on the bookshelf and climbed into bed.
The ceiling was white and empty. The girl's eyelashes blinked, and finally she sighed imperceptibly, hugged the pillow and buried her head in the quilt.
She could never imagine what Qi Si would be like when he was in love.
Will you laugh? Will you break the coldness and red ears?
His face was expressionless when he read Cheng Yi's news, but he could rush over immediately.
He should be serious when it comes to love, not saying anything in words, but giving people a sense of security with his actions.
Since he listened to Cheng Yi so much, why didn't he take her with her when she asked him to? Is it too troublesome? Or was he afraid of disturbing them?
Even if you don't take it with you, she doesn't want to go.
Qi Lu, who was amused by the skit, saw Qi Si coming back from the corner of her eye, and was a little surprised, "Why did you come back so fast?"
Less than half an hour, isn’t it very sticky for young people to fall in love these days?
"Just changing my phone," Qi Si sat down and took out his own phone, "I messed with Tang Yu's phone when I went out to play during the day."
Qi Lu reacted, "Aren't you the one who fell in love with Cheng Yi?"
"Tang Yu, they are almost half a year old."
Qi Lu laughed and said, "I thought you finally realized it. It turned out to be someone else's. Tang Yu already has a girlfriend. They won't get married right after graduation, right?"
"Not sure."
"What about you? Have you been so busy with your studies all these years that you don't have anyone else in mind?"
"without."
"Actually, you don't have to push yourself so hard. Young people still have to go through what they have to go through."
Qi Si didn't know whether he heard it or not, so he nodded and said, "Just let nature take its course."
Early the next morning, when Luo Yan got up, Qi Lu had already started cooking. She washed her face and went to help. Qi Lu told her what happened last night.
"Ah? Is it Tang Yu's mobile phone?"
"Yes, we made a mistake."
The girl's dull mood all night finally cleared the clouds at sunrise and let the light into the sky.
This holiday is the longest holiday that Qi Si has stayed at home. He stayed at home throughout the first month. During the day, he would water the flowers in the backyard and play with the dog. When the weather was nice, he would read a book and bask in the sun on the small couch in the attic. He spent almost all the time at home.
Housework is taken care of.
Qi Si's cooking is very delicious, and with him in Aunt Lu, there is no chance to cook.
In the afternoon, Luo Yan picked a handful of mountain flowers from the valley. As soon as he entered the door, he was attracted by the music above. He raised his eyes and saw a man in the attic typing on the computer with his eyebrows raised, and a light white mist rising from the cup on the small table.
The spring was bright in the first month, and a ray of sunlight shone into the pavilion and fell on his handsome face. His eyelashes were also stained with halo, and time seemed to stand still on him.
Luo Yan looked a little dazed, then regained consciousness, put the bouquet in the bottle and went to play with the little yellow dog in the yard. She got sleepy easily in the afternoon, so she lay down on the wicker chair and fell asleep while playing.
The sun shone directly on her face, which was warm at first, and then started to burn. I don't know how long it took, but a shadow covered most of the sun while she was half asleep and half awake. Then she relaxed her brows and continued to sleep.
When she woke up, what she saw was colorful gauze hanging on the branches. It was spread out in a square shape to cover her upper body from the sun. The sky was blue and the sun had mostly gone.
"woke up?"
A low-pitched voice came from beside him. Qi Si was sitting at the stone table, wearing glasses and repairing Aunt Lu's watch.
"There's ice cream in the refrigerator."
Luo Yan paused for a moment, then went back home and opened the refrigerator. What she saw was a whole box of ice cream, and a basket of huge strawberries next to it.
Returning to the yard and sitting down next to the stone table, she took a mouthful of milk-flavored ice cream and put it in her mouth. She looked at the many small parts he had removed from the table and asked, "Can it still be repaired?"
"Yes," Qi Si glanced at her, "Why don't you get some strawberries?"
"Let's eat together when Aunt Lu comes back."
He seemed to sneer slightly and said in a calm tone, "Go and eat as much as you can eat by yourself."
"oh."
Luo Yan took half a basket of strawberries, washed them and put them on a plate. While looking at Qi Sixiu's watch, he swung his feet slightly and ate the strawberries and ice cream.
From the sight, Qi Si's hands have clear joints and are as slender as bamboo joints. He can use tools with ease, skillfully and pleasing to the eye.
The strawberries were very sweet. Luo Yan curled her lips quietly as she looked at them.
The flowers she arranged were very beautiful. After being praised by Aunt Lu, Luo Yan went to pick another bunch a few days later and placed them on the stone table in the yard, creating a unique artistic conception.
That day she was playing with the little yellow dog in the yard and accidentally broke the vase.
That was the only vase in the house. Aunt Lu bought it for her when she saw that she liked arranging flowers. The price was not low.
Seeing the mess everywhere, Luo Yan felt distressed and regretful.
There is no place to put these flowers now.
When Qi Si saw it, he turned around and went back into the house. When he came out again, he had an elegant glass bottle in his hand.
It was the sweet-scented osmanthus wine he bought during the Chinese New Year. After finishing the wine, the design of the bottle was very beautiful, with a few sprigs of elegant sweet-scented osmanthus adorning the bottle.
After filling the water, Qi Si carefully inserted the bouquet of flowers on the ground into it. It looked very beautiful with all kinds of mountain flowers.
Luo Yan watched from the side and sighed in his heart, Qi Si is really a person who can deal with any changes calmly. Many things are easily resolved in front of him.
This kind of calmness and calmness has a mysterious appeal to adolescent girls.
After finishing everything, Qi Si said to her slowly and calmly: "Be careful next time."
"good."
*
The holidays passed by in a hurry, and Qi Si returned to school in the north in March. There were only two people at home eating. Qi Lu was not used to it at first, and she would talk about Qi Si every time she ate.
"Children have to leave home when they grow up. Ah Si has never let me worry about it since he was a child. In the blink of an eye, he will graduate from college and life will not go by."
"You two are very similar in caring for the family and being filial. Fortunately, you can stay with me. In two years, we, Yanyan, will go to college far away to experience our own lives and start a family... Think about it this way,
The time spent with the children really only lasts for more than ten years when they are young."
Seeing that Qi Lu's eyes were a little red when she thought about the distance, Luo Yan felt very uncomfortable. She is a proper "mama's girl", "I don't want to go far away, and I don't want to get married and leave Aunt Lu. I want to stay with you."
lifetime."
"Silly boy, no one can accompany anyone for a lifetime. You are still young now. When you grow up and meet the person you want to spend your life with, Aunt Lu will be happy for you, and so will A Si. He will also have his own in the future.
family."
Luo Yan looked seriously and said slowly word by word: "I can do it. I will stay with you for the rest of my life."
Seeing her serious look, Qi Lu felt heartwarming and funny, "You will never marry again?"
After a pause, she curled her lips, "Then why not marry A Si? It's just right, you can both accompany me, and you are both my children growing up."
After finishing speaking, Luo Yan's eyes flickered and her cheeks heated up, "Aunt Lu..."
"Hahaha, I won't tease you anymore. The little girl can't stand the teasing and becomes shy even after saying a few words."
Looking at Luo Yan's slightly pink face, Qi Lu secretly raised her eyebrows, unable to hide the smile on her lips.
What can a little girl hide?
In mid-May, Qi Si finished his school work and returned home. This time he would only stay for a few days, and he would pack his luggage before leaving the country.
On the day he came back, Luo Yan wore her most beautiful dress to greet him. The first time he saw her, Qi Si said that she had grown taller again.
He also brought her a new dress, "It should fit this time."
The night before he was leaving, his classmates and friends held a farewell party, and a lot of wine was served during the party. Luo Yan was still awake when he got home.
The darkness was thick at midnight, and the loud cries of crickets were intertwined in the darkness. A light suddenly turned on in a room in the darkness.
Hearing the news of his return, Luo Yan got up from the bed. His door was not closed tightly. After thinking about it, she poured a cup of hot water and knocked on the door.
There was no movement for a long time.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Yan bravely opened the door gently.
This is the first time she has entered his room.
There was no light in the room, so I could only use the moonlight outside to see clearly the person on the bed. He seemed to be asleep.
Walking over, Luo Yan put down the cup and called him softly, "Qi, Si..."
She never called him brother, nor did she call him by his name in front of him.
Now I was bending down in front of his bed, calling his name loudly, and my heartbeat became clearer and clearer.
"Qi Si."
"Do you want a drink of water?"
No one responded.
The weather has begun to get hot in May, and most of his screen windows are open. The night wind is blowing, and the moonlight shines on his face, outlining his deep outline.
It was so quiet everywhere that Luo Yan even breathed lightly and stared at him quietly for a long time.
He will leave tomorrow, to the other side of the world, and will never come back.
"When is the next time we meet?"
The tip of her nose was already sore as she spoke the words. She blinked hard and choked, "Will you think of me occasionally?"
The hot liquid slid down from her eyes. Luo Yan grabbed the sheets and leaned forward while holding her breath——
When he touched the cool thin lips, a weak electric current was transmitted from his limbs and bones into his heart, and his heart palpitated, disturbing the peace of the room.
Pulling away, her heart jumped into her throat, and she swallowed hard. Another sense of pleasure was obvious amidst the tension.
"You want peace and prosperity."
Soon after, the door was gently closed, leaving the room silent, as if nothing had happened.
When sending him to the airport, Qi Lu's eyes were red all the way. Before getting on the plane, Qi Si sighed slightly, hugged Qi Lu and comforted her softly, while Luo Yan remained quietly beside him.
Qi Si saw her coming, and for the first time, he stretched out his hand to touch her head, and said in a deep voice, "Can you stay with mom for me?"
"Can."
He raised his lips and rubbed her hair, his eyebrows were gentle, "Take care of yourself, study hard, and grow up well."
"Okay." Luo Yan felt that her eyes were turning red again.
Qi Si's fingertips traced the end of her eyes, "Would you like a hug?"
The little girl choked with sobs in her throat, "Yes."
She hugged him openly, the corners of Luo Yan's eyes were wet, "You want everything to be smooth and safe."
