Shen Luyan was not surprised. Although Jiang Zhi was very beautiful, she was too introverted. At first glance, she seemed to be a very obedient and good girl. She didn't dare to tell anyone she liked, so she only dared to keep it secretly in her heart.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and said perfunctorily: "That's quite a pity."
Jiang Zhi squeezed the sticky note in her hand tightly. The yellowed paper was filled with the thoughts of the young girl in Huaichun. Now she was only glad that she didn't dare to write his name on it, but carefully replaced it with his abbreviation.
——sly.
Even his initials are hidden in the footer of the paper.
Jiang Zhi lowered his head and said in a low voice, "There is nothing to regret."
Shen Luyan looked at her. The little girl pursed her lips and lowered her eyelashes. She seemed to be sad. It was not difficult to guess that she probably liked that boy very much. It had been so many years and it still affected her when he mentioned it. Emotions.
Although Shen Luyan didn't like her, because of men's bad nature, he didn't want to hear how much she had liked others, "Why don't you confess?"
Jiang Zhi's eyes were a little wet. She calmly swallowed the sourness in her heart, "Because it's too late."
It's a step too late.
Maybe this is due to fate.
After the kidnapping case, she was sent back to Nancheng by Jiangbeishan to rest for a while.
A person lives in this courtyard.
My grandparents were long gone after a car accident. My mother was still there at that time, but her health was already very bad.
She stayed here and had nothing to do.
When I heard some movement in the alley, I would lie down on the window sill and take a look.
She is waiting for him to come to her.
The diary filled with girl's worries gradually changed from "I like him so much" to "When will he come to me?"
Has he forgotten her? Is he lying to her?
I promised to protect her.
It turns out it was just talk.
Jiang Zhi waited in Nancheng for several months. The leaves outside the window gradually faded from green to yellow.
Summer is over and cold autumn is ushering in.
It wasn't until Jiang Zhi was picked up by Jiang Beishan and transferred to Shen Luyan's high school that he met him again.
Watching him wait at the door of the classroom every day for Jiang Suining to finish school, watching him willingly stand in the corridor for Jiang Suining, watching him smiling and helping Jiang Suining carry her schoolbag and holding her hand.
The saddest moment in Jiang Zhi's life was probably when Shen Luyan walked to her classroom and asked for Jiang Suining's deskmate by name.
Unfortunately, she is Jiang Suining's unlucky deskmate.
At that time, her beaten ears were not fully healed and she needed to wear a hearing aid. She was afraid of being seen by her classmates, so she had to put her hair down, covering her ears and most of her face.
As long as she doesn't take the initiative to speak, she has no sense of presence in the classroom.
She was pushed in front of Shen Luyan by her classmates. The young man was tall and felt very oppressive.
"Are you Suining's deskmate?"
She wore a hearing aid, but her ears still buzzed.
It was an emotion that she couldn't control herself, and she was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
She raised her hand to adjust the hearing aid, took a deep breath to adjust the disordered breath, and nodded. Her throat was a little sore, her eyes were sore, and they were wet and muddy: "Yeah."
The young man's cold eyes glanced at her, "I heard that you don't like her very much. Don't bully her in the future. She is my girlfriend, do you understand?"
Jiang Zhi's ears began to hurt, and the harsh ringing was playing in her mind. She almost shed tears in pain, and the sounds around her began to become chaotic.
Her face was as white as a piece of paper, and her skin was almost transparent. She could only nod.
Because at that moment, she was speechless.
After the young man finished speaking, he walked away.
Jiang Zhi felt that Shen Luyan must have forgotten about this a long time ago, and he would not know that the person he warned was her.
Jiang Zhi took a deep breath, "I don't want to mention these anymore."
Shen Luyan did not force anyone to make things difficult for him, "I won't talk about it anymore."
Jiang Zhi adjusted his mood: "Do you want to go for a walk in the alley? There is nothing to see in my house."
Shen Luyan had no objection, "Okay."
Hexiang is a famous historical and cultural street in Nancheng, and the residents here are all genuine Nancheng people.
White walls, blue tiles, and blue slates.
It suddenly brings people back to the misty rainy Jiangnan.
It happened to be time for middle school students to get out of school, and boys were running rampant in the alley.
Shen Luyan held her hand and let her walk inside. He asked, "Have you always lived here when you were a child?"
Jiang Zhi thought for a while, "Forget it."
Shen Luyan said: "The environment is very good."
He asked casually: "How did you end up in Beicheng?"
Jiang Zhi looked at the vast sky, his voice a little hollow: "My father picked me up."
She whispered softly: "My grandparents were gone at that time. I had no choice but to follow my father."
Even this house on Crane Lane.
Not entirely hers.
The documents were all in Jiangbeishan's hands.
When my mother was about to be kicked out of the hospital, she wanted to sell the house.
But when she knelt in front of Jiang Beishan, he refused to give her the ID.
What Shen Luyan said is true. Tears and begging have no effect. They cannot win conscience or mercy.
Shen Luyan did not ask any more questions.
The neighbors in Hexiang still remember Jiang Zhi. She has been the most beautiful girl here since she was a child.
She has fair skin, good foundation, good looks, and a first-rate temperament.
He has been obedient since he was a child and listens very much to his family.
Later, something happened at home, and I rarely saw her.
Now I am very happy to see her back.
"Azhi, is this your boyfriend?" The neighbor spoke in Nancheng dialect.
Jiang Zhi let go of his hand, "No."
Wu Nong's soft words came out particularly waxy from her mouth.
Shen Luyan understood, but he was not unhappy because she was eager to cut off the relationship with him. He held her hand again and said, "I don't see that Secretary Jiang is quite popular here."
Jiang Zhi said: "That's still far inferior to Mr. Shen."
Shen Luyan smiled and changed the topic, "Are you hungry? Do you want to go get something to eat?"
Jiang Zhi was not polite to him: "There is a noodle shop at the entrance of the alley that is very delicious."
Jiang Zhi followed with difficulty, almost being carried forward by his strength. She raised her head and looked at his side face in a daze, the dim yellow light of the sunset falling evenly on him.
The light is dazzling, and he is even more dazzling.
It would be great if time could stop at this moment.
It would be great if Shen Luyan could like her.
The brief silence was broken by the ringing of the mobile phone.
Shen Luyan picked up the phone, patiently listened to what the other party said, and replied lazily with a few words, "I know."
He paused: "Are you hungry?"
Jiang Zhi said: "It's okay."
Shen Luyan paused for a few seconds, "Would you like to go to the airport with me first?"
Jiang Zhi was silent for a while and asked, "Who are you picking up?"
Shen Luyan did not elaborate with her, but simply told her: "Sheng Xizhou is here with Sui Ning."
