"do not know."

Ke Lvyan looked at her with an indescribable look and expression of disgust, and Ke Zhiyan subconsciously felt that it was better not to ask.

But Ke Luyan never played cards according to common sense, she still said slowly: "I found that you have become stupid."

Ke Zhiyan retorted: "It's just laziness."

"Not thinking will dull your brain."

"Oh, come on, Ke Luyan." Ke Zhiyan said impatiently, "I'm not Sherlock Holmes, and you're not Moriarty either. Stop this boring pretend play!"

"That's right." Ke Lvyan nodded in agreement, "You were the one who brought up this boring pretend play."

"How old was I then?"

"Seven years old." Ke Luyan thought for a while, "Maybe six years old and ten months old?"

"Under the age of seven, and at that age all children will..."

"A little childish?" Ke Lvyan interjected.

"...all of them will be full of childishness." Ke Zhiyan received it without changing his expression.

"Tongqu." Ke Lvyan sneered, and before she could say anything, Ke Zhiyan had already put his hand on the doorknob, wanting to enter the room.Ke Luyan hurriedly stopped her.

"Why, do I have to stay here with you?"

"Obviously." Ke Lvyan said, "Otherwise your orange sister will come to you."

Ke Zhiyan let out a loud hum, "I'll drag two chairs."

Ke Lvyan raised his eyebrows, "I thought you'd rather sit on the steps?"

The three steps leading to the courtyard from the back door can just accommodate two people sitting side by side. Ke Zhiyan often sat here when he was tired from playing in the courtyard when he was a child, and Ke Luyan liked to sit on the top step when it rained. She was in contact with her from a distance, but because of the obstruction of the eaves, she couldn't get wet.

Ke Zhiyan hesitated, and Ke Luyan called her: "Come on."

"Then, shall I go get two cups of tea?" Ke Zhiyan asked, she might still be a little uncertain, so she lowered her voice a bit, which made her look obedient in front of Ke Lvyan once in a while.

"Believe me, we won't stay here for long, even a cup of tea won't be cold." Ke Lvyan said, she took the lead to sit down with the soldiers, and she left a large space for Ke Zhiyan, enough for the other party to sit down, and there was still space around her. one slice.

Ke Zhiyan hesitated and sat down next to the railing next to the steps. As Ke Lvyan expected, there was a large space between them, enough for an adult to pass through.

She suddenly missed the slightly naive Ke Zhiyan when she was a child before the game of pretend play started. The relationship between the two of them is not as tense as it was after the game started. Ke Zhiyan likes to play in the backyard, and her favorite thing is not table tennis. It's football. Papa helped her set up a children's goal in the backyard. Ke Zhiyan has learned to pause with the ball and how to shoot from the most favorable angle.

Her game time is after her nap, and Ke Lvyan would sit on the steps and read a book after returning home from school in the afternoon. Ke Zhiyan would always run wildly in front of her, and then throw herself into her arms covered in dirt and grass clippings. Nine, she will be thrown back by the opponent, with one hand stabilizing the opponent's waist, and the other hand resting on the floor behind her.

Ke Zhiyan would hid in her arms and giggled, her eyes were bent, some grass clippings stuck to her short hair, which was longer than now, she laughed so hard that she put her head into her arms, "Sister, did you see my shot just now? "

Yes, she still called her sister when she was a child.

But they grow up too fast, and sometimes Ke Lvyan hopes that time will go faster, and then a little faster. Ke Zhiyan is still too young and doesn't know much. Ke Lvyan doesn't want to spend a lot of time with a Chinese-English Children who can't switch freely.She hoped that the other party would grow up sooner and be old enough to go to public school, preferably in Westminster, which was her alma mater and the best public school in the UK.

She thinks that by then the two of them may have a real common language. No one in this world can understand each other like the two of them. They read the same book, share the same point of view, and learn the same sheet music. The same education will be received in the future.

Then time really flew by as Ke Luyan thought.Ke Zhiyan has reached the age when it is time to go to elementary school, which will lay a solid foundation for her future public school career, and it also means that she can no longer run and roll in the backyard all the time like before.

Ke Zhiyan also grew up rapidly as she had imagined, and when Ke Lvyan returned home during the Christmas holidays, the other party had already raised a section, nestled in front of the fireplace watching a documentary.Mommy complained that she had brought her younger sister into an old pedant, Ke Lvyan secretly curled the corners of her lips, but her younger sister would still play those boring games with her when she was alone.

Ke Zhiyan didn't become an old pedant, she just didn't want to spend time with those boring people.

Ke Luyan wrote down a book list the night before returning to school after the holiday. Nearly a hundred books are enough to make the other party not so boring before the Easter holiday.

During the vacation a few months later, as expected, she saw a thick stack of reading notes on the table, which recorded Ke Zhiyan's thoughts and comments. Some concepts were still too simple, but Ke Lvyan knew that they would soon be To be expanded into more knowledge is like a foundation. First, there must be a foundation, and then the branches exposed to the ground can be extended.

Ke Zhiyan felt uncomfortable all over her body after just sitting for a few minutes. She secretly glanced at Ke Lvyan.

Well, how on earth did she manage to stay still?

Ke Zhiyan coughed deliberately.The other party came back to his senses, and before Ke Zhiyan could speak, he saw the other party showing a sad expression, as if she had just recovered from some sadness.

Ke Zhiyan subconsciously said, "What's wrong?"

Ke Luyan seemed to be frightened by her, and looked back at her abruptly.Ke Zhiyan was wondering if she should say something more, and then she felt something grabbing her wrist.

Ke Lvyan clasped her wristband tightly, Ke Zhiyan felt a little uncomfortable, she subconsciously put her hand into her arms.

Without breaking free, Ke Zhiyan began to shiver, and his breathing quickened.After the first chill, Ke Luyan suddenly realized her actions, and she let go of her hand apologetically, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Ke Zhiyan whispered, his body defensively stuffed his right hand into his bosom.

"I just want to check on your recovery..." Ke Lvyan said softly, "I didn't mean to."

Ke Zhiyan stared at her for a few seconds, as if heaven and man were fighting in their minds. After half a minute, she exposed her right wrist, wearing a blue and white sports wristband. Ke Zhiyan took off the wristband herself, revealing a The skin that is visibly paler than the surrounding area due to wearing wristbands all year round.

There was a shallow scar on the wrist bone, barely visible through the pale skin.

"It's healed." Ke Zhiyan stared at the scar and said, "Only the wrist bone is more obvious, and the arm is basically invisible."

Ke Lvyan stretched out her hand to touch it, but she paused on top of her arm, as if she was asking, but Ke Zhiyan didn't make a statement, so Ke Lvyan put her hand on it, with her thumb resting on the wrist bone, and her index finger seemed to snap together naturally. on other parts of the arm.

Ke Zhiyan froze.She suddenly understood what the other party was doing.The distance from the thumb to the index finger is the location of her wound. The thumb is the starting point. On the wrist bone, the force of the sword stabbing is the greatest, and the scar is the deepest. Then it passes along the wrist bone, and the force gradually decreases until it reaches the index finger. The position has lost strength, and the wound heals the fastest.

And this complete wound was hidden under the wristband after the stitches were removed, and it was even more integrated with the pale skin after it healed. Only the deepest wrist bone left traces.

Ke Zhiyan looked up nervously at Ke Lvyan, who looked down at her wrist bones, his eyelashes seemed to be trembling slightly.

"I'm sorry." Ke Luyan said suddenly.

Ke Zhiyan blinked, "It's okay." She paused, "You said it just now."

"No, I mean, I'm sorry." Ke Lvyan raised his head and repeated, "I'm sorry I didn't stop in time."

Ke Zhiyan blinked again slowly, and she suddenly understood the reason why the other party apologized again, her face suddenly turned pale, "It's okay, I remember that I already forgave you at that time?"

"Actually, I've been regretting that I shouldn't have dragged you to play with the sword..."

"I'm pulling you to a duel." Ke Zhiyan interrupted her, saying deliberately, "We all know the consequences of a sharpened sword."

"Then I cut your wrist with a gash of nearly two inches." Ke Lvyan's face darkened.

"4.23 centimeters, close to 1.67 inches—not sure if it's right, after all, I haven't used the unit of inches for a long time... Anyway." Ke Zhiyan took a breath, "It's true that the wound is ugly, but that's why you gave up fencing?"

"I can no longer continue to use the sword stained with your blood."

"So you threw them away—me and your first sword, but the new one didn't have my blood on it..."

"Ah Zhi." Ke Lvyan said, her black eyes fixed on Ke Zhiyan's eyes, Ke Zhiyan tilted her head, and saw her own unclear reflection from inside, and then she realized that her state could not deceive the other party at all.

"You...you don't need to say it too clearly..." Ke Zhiyan whispered, "I know what you mean..."

However, before she finished speaking, Ke Luyan had already spoken, full of exhaustion and pain, "I can't pick up the sword again, it will remind me of what I have done before."

Ke Zhiyan got stuck suddenly, she didn't know how to answer the words, Ke Luyan's infinite exhaustion was also contagious to her, and she was the one who suffered the most from that scar.

But at this moment, Ke Lvyan's sudden honesty made her realize that she is not the only one who has been stuck in the past and cannot get out of it these years. She suddenly has the urge to express all her grievances, anger, resentment and pain, and then see Can I relax a little bit.

She held back.He closed his eyes and adjusted his emotions skillfully.

"Why are you doing this all of a sudden?"

Ke Lvyan let go of her hand belatedly, which allowed her to relax a bit. "You've grown up."

Ke Zhiyan tried to adjust the atmosphere to be more relaxed, so she put on her usual look when facing Ke Lvyan, "I think this has become a reality a few years ago?"

"It's the first time I've met a 17-year-old table tennis Olympic champion."

Ke Zhiyan emphasized: "It's just a group. Weicheng is the champion, and I'm just No.3."

Ke Lvyan didn't seem to intend to follow her script, as soon as she opened her mouth, the atmosphere became heavy again, and Ke Zhiyan glared at the other party for this. "Ah Zhi, is the championship important to you?"

"The national team only divides the championship." Ke Zhiyan said without hesitation.

"...but all we want is for you to be happy, and safe."

So, this is today's topic?After some tortuous communication, Ke Zhiyan discovered that this sentence was what the other party really wanted to tell her. She couldn't help but reflect on what she had done wrong recently, or what she had done to worry her family...

I'm afraid there is only Wei Cheng, and that may be what Mommy is worried about, but it is definitely not Ke Luyan and Papa.

"Well, although I don't know what you are referring to, but..." Ke Zhiyan said, "...the past is over, and I am very happy now."
