In a dream

In the back kitchen of the cafe, the lady proprietress leaned against the door of the kitchen with her body crossed and her arms crossed, looking sideways at the woman who kept kneading noodles, adding water, and beating egg juice in her hands. The long hair is bound in the brim of the hat, and the apron is tied around the slender waist. Looking from the side, the strand of red ear hair around her ear looks more attractive on her fair face. The traces that should have been left on her face made her more attractive as a mature woman after the baptism of time. "Actually, you don't have to come every day."

"Yeah." The woman answered simply, but the movements of her hands did not stop at all. She adjusted the proportion of the beaten flour slurry and poured it into the baking mold, and put the tray into the oven with gloves to adjust the temperature and temperature. Time "It doesn't matter, I'm idle anyway, just treat it as a part-time job for you." Taking off the gloves on her hands, the woman turned around, and there were a few white flour stains on the apron on the front of her slender and delicate body "If you If you really feel embarrassed, then you can pay me my salary."

The proprietress pouted and stood up straight, and unconsciously poked the dimple on her face with her right index finger, "But, it seems that this cafe itself is yours. You are the real boss."

"Weng Xue." Xia Yanhuan interrupted her seriously, "This is your cafe, you are my sister-in-law, and I am just helping my elder brother with what he should do."

"...Okay." Facing Xia Yanhuan's sudden seriousness, Weng Xue suddenly felt a little at a loss.She looked at Xia Yanhuan's beautiful face in embarrassment, felt sweat dripping from her palms, quickly wiped her hands on her clothes and said, "I'll go out and see if there's anything going on outside." Then she turned around and walked out quickly .

Xia Yanhuan stood on the spot and looked at the direction where Weng Xue disappeared, guessing in her heart that she was about to say something that shouldn't be said to irritate her, but she didn't feel regretful, Xia Moxuan died, even if she didn't want to admit it, she would Admit it, Weng Xue, of course, she must never live in the sinful world she designed herself.

After walking a few steps outside and stopping at the doorway where Weng Xue was standing, Xia Yanhuan poked his head slightly to look outside. The place has been renovated, the open-air part was carefully designed by Weng Xue as a glass terrace, and the entire roof was covered by thick glass It looks like a small greenhouse. The original cool chairs and wooden tables have been replaced by warm fabric sofas, which look comfortable and warm. There are various cartoon characters and potted plants in the places where there are no tables and chairs. It snowed a few days ago. The new leaflets sent out by the cafe attracted many young people as expected. The business is very good every day, and there are always people who insist on leaving late at night.

Xia Yanhuan looked at Weng Xue who was sitting on the counter in a daze. Since yesterday, she was always in a daze when she sat down, and she didn't know what she was thinking.A waiter brought a table of bills to check out and called her several times before she heard it. She recovered and asked what was wrong.Xia Yanhuan stood at the door, covering her mouth and laughing. When Weng Xue heard the movement and turned to look at her blankly, she quickly turned and walked into the kitchen. Just when the oven time was up, there was a burst of music, and she put on gloves. Opening up the plate of small dessert cookies that I just made, Xia Yanhuan was a little stunned to see the cute smiling faces blooming on every little spot. The VIP dessert discount service was actually to choose other high-end pastries. The teacher came to make desserts. She knew from Weng Xue that Mu Elegy always came here, so she occasionally came here to make some pastries. However, since the reconstruction here, she came more often, but the pastries she made by herself They entered the stomachs of the customers who came here for coffee one after another, but Mu Elegy never came again. I think she must be very busy recently.

Busy with JW's shift to real estate work, and also busy with it, let's live a beautiful two-person world with Xie Jingwan happily.

Picking out the cookies from the tray one by one and putting them on the plate, Xia Yanhuan became more and more sad. Mu Elegy likes to eat sweets, and cookies are her favorite. It was for her to study for a whole year, and with her natural intelligence and love, she was finally able to make desserts that all diners bought into, but she seldom had the opportunity to make Mu Elegy herself.She remembered that night when she was drunk, she held Mu Elegy's hand and begged her to talk to her more. If Mu Elegy walked away without the slightest hesitation and made her despair, then she could hear clearly the next door to the master bedroom The suppressed voices of joy and love from the guest room made her despair to the point of confusion.

Mu Elegy's health is not good. She has some heart problems. At that time, she was always more restrained than passionate when she was with her. Now, her physical fitness is not as good as before. The singing that night can only prove her love for Xie Jingwan. Love has penetrated into the bone marrow, and she is just the line she once wanted to guide her way out of the quagmire. When she found that no matter how tough this line was, it was impossible to take her out, so she gave up without even thinking about it. Own.

Xia Yanhuan didn't sleep that night, she opened her eyes and listened to the voice of the girl next door, and then she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of Mu Elegy's room, watching the snow all night, watching the snowflakes from the beginning with small raindrops Later, the snowflakes were clearly separated and fell on the canopy of the unit building across the road and in the small garden downstairs. She just watched, and the snowflakes fell on the silent night, and even fell on herself. Like a cold heart.When the sky was turning pale, she heard Xie Jingwan let out a soft cry and then there was no more sound. She smiled wryly and thought that this fierce struggle between lovers had finally come to an end, and she should go too.She quickly drew the curtains, put on the coat that Mu Elegy took off and put on the bed, moved her legs that were a little sore after standing for a long time, put on her boots, opened the door lightly, and walked out. At the door, she caught a glimpse of the unclosed guest room door, opened it slightly, and stopped involuntarily. Her eyes fell on the not-so-small Simmons. She saw Mu Elegy curled up in the bed with her back facing her. After a little bit, Xie Jingwan was nowhere to be seen, probably curled up in Mu Elegy's arms.Xia Yanhuan felt that the muscles around her eyes contracted fiercely again and again, causing her eyes to blink non-stop, and then hot tears fell down. She didn't understand why she was crying at this time all night long.She turned around quickly and didn't care whether it was the lovers who would hear the sound of her fleeing in a hurry. At that moment, she just wanted to leave there and never come back.

After all the cookies were arranged by her, Xia Yanhuan looked at the smiling face on the plate idly, but felt infinitely sad in her heart. Even though Mu Elegy had already achieved that step, she could not do it for Xie Jingwan for anyone else. Without even thinking about it, I still appear in this coffee shop, and still bake Mu Elegy's favorite cookie every day without exception, and why?wait?But for the past six years, it was a piece of ice, and it should have been melted by her, but Mu Elegy was still not hers, so what was she waiting for?

"I'm going back."

"So early?" Weng Xue had just settled a bill, and was about to go into the kitchen to see what Xia Yanhuan was doing with the excuse of serving dessert, but bumped into her at the door.She grabbed Xia Yanhuan's wrist to stabilize her figure.

Xia Yanhuan supported Weng Xue to stand firm, raised his hand to the top of his head to get the chef's hat, and walked out, "Well, let's go, you should find the previous pastry chef to make the dessert afterwards. I will come here rarely .” There was infinite loneliness in the voice.

Weng Xue chased after her, followed her to the changing room and watched Xia Yanhuan take off her apron and chef's white overalls in front of her, her slender water-snake waist still barely enough to hold even after wearing a sweater in winter, "Why?" She blinked, feeling sore in her heart, won't you come? "Mu Elegy may come at any time." After speaking, he opened the small window of the dressing room and pointed to JW's building.

Opening the cabinet to take out her coat, Xia Yanhuan combed her wine-red curly hair carelessly with a comb. Before closing the box door, she glanced at herself in the mirror on the door and exhaled heavily, "Weng Xue, I'm 32." I'm old, I can't wait and I don't want to wait anymore. Mu Elegy has never had any emotional entanglements with me in this life." He took out his own bag and took out lipstick, wiped it on his lips, then pursed his lips and let out a "boo" One sound.

"So, have you decided to accept others?" Weng Xue raised her head, she was shorter than Xia Yanhuan, and Xia Yanhuan had just changed into high-heeled leather boots, so she had to look up at her.

Xia Yanhuan looked down at her ruddy face, pouting slightly uneasy, the dimple on the right cheek was faintly visible, she moved her fingertips, but only covered the lipstick cap, she bent over and leaned over, Looking oppressively at Literary, who moved back involuntarily because of her approach, with a straight face and a wicked smile on her face, "Weng Xue, what kind of man do you like? Do you want me to introduce you?" The person in front of him Her eyes turned red in an instant, which caught Xia Yanhuan a little off guard. She glanced at her mouth and cursed that she was looking for trouble. She clapped her hands unnaturally and coughed twice to clear her throat. She stood up straight and took two steps forward. Facing the woman who was biting her lips tightly but still trembling slightly, she squeezed her fists and forced herself to finish what she had just said in a relaxed tone, "But let's say it first, like Xia Moxuan, in this world I am Can no longer be found."

The people behind did not reply for a long time, Xia Yanhuan sighed in his heart, what is this?Are you molesting your deceased brother's lover left in this world?Turning his back to her, he said, "I'm leaving." After that, Xia Yanhuan walked away without hesitation.Weng Xue stood where she was, maintaining the posture she was looking up at just now, listening to the sound of high heels stepping on the floor gradually becoming quieter until it disappeared completely, her hands were tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, she felt that her neck was a little She was sore, but she didn't dare to bow her head, because the pain in her heart was tens of thousands of times more severe than the pain in her neck. Only by maintaining this posture of looking up could she not shed tears.She loosened her white lower lip that was bitten cruelly by herself, thinking of the playful expression on Xia Yanhuan's face just now, her heart tightened one after another. For so many years, from freshman year to now, her love for her has not changed for a moment, but She is still as cruel as before. Could it be that Xia Moxuan's death has confiscated even her right to secretly love her in this life?
