Years are warm

The second day of the sports meeting was peaceful.

The 4*100m relay was put at the end, and many people squeezed to the side of the stands near the runway, leaning out and cheering for their class loudly, probably because this is the last event, whether it is the teacher from the Academic Affairs Office Still the staff at the scene didn't stop drinking.

The two days of leisure time mixed with the summer heat came to an end with the shouts, followed by the National Day holiday. The teachers of No. [-] Middle School probably watched them have fun these two days. This first small holiday also Not much homework assigned.

Li Siyuan packed her schoolbag one step ahead of them, and simply came over from the row by the window to chat with them.

"My family plans to travel to the Northwest, how about you?"

"My parents seem to say that they have a seminar in Linjiang University City." Xie Zhiyao recalled the arrangement that his parents told him two days ago, and said with a curled lip, "They said they were worried about leaving me at home alone. Take me with you."

"Isn't that great?" Zhang Xin sighed enviously, "It's just a good time to see which school looks good in advance, and Qingyun is in Linjiang."

The two top universities in the country, one is Kyungbuk in the capital, and the other is Qingyun in Linjiang.

"Maybe you will be Qingyun's person in the future?" Li Siyuan also teased.

It's not impossible to say it's a joke.No. [-] Middle School has one of the highest cost-required rates in the city every year, and it is possible to be admitted to Kyungbuk and Qingyun if it can be stabilized in the top ten of the grade.

"We don't know much about literature yet, so it's too early to think about Qingyun." Xie Zhiyao lay on the desk and shook his head, "And what if I go to Qingbei? I really want to see the snow."

"It's not that it doesn't snow in Shenning, haven't you seen enough?" Xu Huaian packed up his things and carried his schoolbag on one shoulder, "Who calls it cold every year?"

"That's different." Xie Zhiyao muttered, stood up and followed her out of the classroom, the afterglow of the setting sun fell on their shoulders, as if embellished with a layer of brilliance.

"The snow in Shenning is also snow seeds. Think about the scene in the north that is covered in silver. Where can you see it here?"

Seeing this kind of people should go to the northeast, what kind of capital should they go to?Xu Huai'an smiled, turned his head and was about to refute, but heard someone shouting nearby.

"Xiao An."

Xu Huaian's body froze, and the hand that was holding the schoolbag strap suddenly tightened.

The smile on her face faded, and when she turned around, she had turned into the coldness most of the time. She looked at the man in suit and leather shoes in front of her, and called softly: "Dad."

The man's eyes are dark, his face is stern, and his figure standing in the teaching building is as tall and straight as a pine.Xu Huai'an has eyes that are very similar to his, and he is intimidating when he is not smiling.

Seeing this, the rest said hello uncle. Xie Zhiyao stood beside her, and when she turned her eyes, she could see the girl's tightly pursed lips. She stretched out her hand and tickled her little finger calmly.

Like consolation.

It wasn't the first time she met Xu Junyi, it was when she was still in Beizhong.There are many typhoons and thunderstorms in Shenning in summer, and the weather is always unpredictable. Many times, I forget to bring an umbrella, so I can only wait at school. Either the rain stops and someone comes to pick me up, or I have to run back in the rain.

There was a typhoon and heavy rain, and she was not at school because she was going to the composition competition in the district that day. When she came back, for safety, the accompanying teacher simply sent the students home.

But Xu Huaian, who was at school that day, didn't bring an umbrella.

When Xie Zhiyao went to school the next day, he realized that the other party had caught a cold.As she helped her run to the infirmary to get some cold medicine, she still blamed her for not waiting for the rain to stop or calling for someone to come pick her up.

The girl at that time lowered her eyes and didn't answer directly, but just passed over vaguely and said that no one sent an umbrella.

But she was stunned for a moment, and said without thinking, she remembered to bring an umbrella from now on, so that both of them would not be caught in the rain.As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the person who had been suffering from a cold and didn't say a word suddenly turned red, so in the end, instead of coaxing to drink medicine, he wiped his tears in a hurry.

Xu Huaian seldom cried, only twice in my memory, the first time after seeing being bullied for the first time, and the second time was when he was in junior high school.

She lay on the girl's equally thin shoulders, tears streaming down her face, but she cried silently.

Later she asked the other party why they were crying, and the other party was silent for a long time before she said softly that someone was actually at home that day.

When she got home, she could hear the clatter of keyboards coming from the room, as well as the murmur of a conference call.Xu Junyi was at home, and his cell phone was always on, but he didn't show up in front of the school gate.

Whatever the reason, the result is already the case.

Later, when Xie Zhiyao saw the other party's father in front of the school gate for the first time, his first reaction was to see the expressions of the people around him.

She couldn't understand what Xu Huai'an was feeling at that time, she only knew that the happiness and smiles that appeared on other people's faces when they saw their parents came to pick them up, could not be seen on her face at all.

Some are just the same as now, the same silent relative.As if they were not father and daughter, but two unrelated strangers.

So she could understand why Xu Huaian had such an expression now.

If you are too disappointed, you will naturally stop looking forward to it.

The touch of her hand brought Xu Huaian back to her senses. She took a deep breath and looked at her father: "Why did you come to pick me up all of a sudden?"

"By the way, I'll come and pick you up." Xu Junyi nodded to the others and smiled lightly.

The rest of the people saw this and waved goodbye. Xie Zhiyao was thinking about whether to follow, but Xu Huaian grabbed his wrist.She didn't use any force, just buckled it weakly, and with a little effort, she could break free. Xie Zhiyao glanced at her side face silently, and let her hold it.

Xu Junyi glanced at her, then said in a slow voice, "Where does your friend live? Send her off first."

Xie Zhiyao reported the address, moved her wrist secretly, and held her hand in turn.Her fingertips caressed the back of her hand lightly, softening the girl's cold face little by little.

There was silence all the way into the car, and the evening news was played on the car stereo, so that the car would not be too quiet.

The scenery outside the car was reflected in the girl's dark eyes. She propped her face with one hand, and her eyes fell on the street speeding past outside the window.With the parents present, Xie Zhiyao didn't dare to say more. She glanced at the man who was concentrating on driving, and carefully reached out and grabbed Xu Huaian's palm.

Xu Huai'an recovered his senses and looked at her with doubts in his eyes.

Xie Zhiyao broke away her clenched palm, and wrote something stroke by stroke in her palm.

A little itchy.She shrank subconsciously, but she took into account the other party and endured it.Warm fingertips slid across the palm of her hand, and she lowered her eyes to carefully identify what the other party wrote.

As the last stroke fell, a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes.

——No, open, heart, remember, get, find, me.

Looking up, what fell into her eyes was the bright smile on the girl's face. Even though the sun was setting, the girl was still as bright as a little sun.

Xu Huai'an looked into her eyes, and silently curled up the corners of her mouth as if infected. She withdrew her hand and nodded slightly towards her.

Linjiang City is located farther north than Shenning, and you can feel the strong autumn atmosphere as soon as you get off the plane.The university town in Linjiang is in the Xicheng New District, unlike Shenning’s newly built one in the city center, most of the people who come and go are students staying at the school.

Xie Zhiyao walked around the university town twice during the day, and stayed alone in the hotel at night because his parents had a meeting.I sent her a message yesterday, only to find out that she was taken by her parents to a small county called Qingyuan in the province for tourism.

They were not the only ones on this trip, there were also a few families that Xu Junyi knew in the business field, and they brought two boys who were only in elementary school, and they had a lot of quarrels along the way.

Xu Huai'an didn't speak much all the way, and only answered politely when someone asked a question. She was never a person who was good at communication, whether it was due to her personality or her instinctive avoidance due to her past experience.

When I was young, I fell in people's eyes, which was called quiet and well-behaved, but now it has become withdrawn.

"Young girl can't do this, you still have to be cheerful and talkative. What's the name of that..." The man from one of the accompanying families poured wine into the glass at the dinner table, and said loudly, "Oh yes! EQ! "

Xu Huaian responded with a lack of interest, and raised his hand to pick up some vegetables.

"People asked you something, why didn't you answer?" It was probably because her answer was too soft, and Xu Junyi next to her suddenly said something.

Xu Huaian paused with his chopsticks, took a deep breath and hummed again, but suddenly he lost his appetite.

"Hey, it's okay, kid, just bring it out to see you more in the future." The man waved his hand as if smoothing things over, "Old Xu, you too, don't always put on a stern face like you want to be aggressive with kids."

What's the use of saying this now?I also saw that you said less when you spoke at the beginning.Xu Huaian lowered his eyes, and the hand holding the chopsticks turned white from the force.

"It's not a question of being fierce or not." Xu Junyi glanced at her and frowned, "It's a question of rules."

"Hey, we're so familiar, I don't like this. The rules can also be taken slowly. Isn't the little girl very good at reading? The child is smart, so don't ask too much."

"You can't study hard if you are good at reading, or you will become a nerd?" He seemed to sigh, "It's because I didn't teach it well before."

Enough already!She took a deep breath, trying to suppress the inexplicable emotions surging in her heart, but her downcast eyes became colder and colder.What do you mean by not teaching well before?When did he teach himself?How long have they been together for so many years?

Amidst the emotional turmoil, someone suddenly raised his hand and gently stroked her hair.Yu Xiuyun glanced at the man who was still chattering at the dinner table, and asked her warmly: "Is it too boring? Do you want to go out to get some air? But you can't go too far."

The fire in his heart dissipated instantly with such a light question, and the remaining unspeakable sourness still lingered in his heart for a long time.She looked into her mother's eyes, nodded lightly, raised her eyes and said goodbye politely, and pushed the door out without looking back.

The cold night wind beat against his face, Xu Huaian closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and walked to the trestle next to the hotel to blow the air.

The phone that happened to be in her pocket vibrated, she picked it up to take a look, it was a message from Xie Zhiyao, with a few pursed expressions, saying that staying in the hotel was boring.She calmed down and returned her.

【You didn't follow uncles and aunts? 】

It should be idle over there, and the reply is very fast.

[I'm not interested in their seminars, so I'm staying at the hotel. 】

Linjiang City is also full of lights at night, and the towering office buildings are brightly lit. Xie Zhiyao found an angle from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the high-rise hotel that could capture the entire night scene, fiddled with the camera of his mobile phone, took a picture and sent it.

The signal in the small county was not particularly good, and it took a long time for the picture to load. Xu Huaian laughed and turned on the phone camera to take a picture and send it back.

The air here is good, much better than in the urban area. Without those neon lights, you can still see the stars all over the sky at night.

It's a pity that the smart phone that was released only two years ago, the pixel of the mobile phone camera is still not good enough, and I took several photos that were not satisfactory.She put down her sore arm, switched back to the chat interface, and saw several consecutive messages from the other side.

[The night view of Linjiang seems to be better than that of Shenning, but unfortunately it is not like the central area, and the other side of the river cannot be photographed, otherwise it must be more beautiful. 】

[Speaking of going to Qingyun during the day, the university campus is really big. If it wasn't for someone taking me with me, I would definitely get lost. 】

【What did you do and you didn't get back to me! 】

[Huai'an?Huai Xiaoan~]

It seems that staying in a hotel alone is really boring.Xu Huai'an couldn't hold back his laughter, leaned half on the railing of the trestle bridge, and hurried back to her before the other party continued to make a series of calls.

[I didn't read the news just now, the scenery here is good, I wanted to take a picture of the stars for you, but unfortunately the mobile phone can't take pictures. 】

star?Xie Zhiyao lay on the big bed in the hotel, imagined a girl playing with her mobile phone, and typed back to her with a smile.

[The best camera in the world is the human eye, so if you can't take a picture, then help me see it. 】

At the end, I added a sentence and sent it over.

[Also forget about your photography skills, Huaian kid. 】

Xu Huaian raised his eyebrows, and the smile in his eyes grew stronger.

She turned her back to the door of the B&B, completely oblivious to the eyes that fell on her at some point behind her.

Xu Junyi stood at the door for a while. He looked at the girl's low eyebrows and smile from a distance, silently took back the steps he took, turned around and entered the door again.

Seeing him coming back alone, Yu Xiuyun was a little surprised and said, "Didn't you go call Xiaobao?"

The scene he saw just now came to his mind, and while leaning over to pour a glass of water, he shook his head and said, "I didn't find anyone, I should have gone outside, call her later and ask her to come back."

As for what he saw just now, he didn't say anything.

Yu Xiuyun sighed, and said: "You should have a good chat with her. Xiaobao is thoughtful, but like you, she is a soft-hearted person, and the more aggressive you are, the more counterproductive it will be."

The latter waved his hands, covering his face as if tired.
