wildfire in the heart

The party that night was originally very warm and joyful, but because of the appearance of a person, the situation took a turn for the worse.

For the New Year's Eve party, You Yu invited the landlord's family, her classmates from the working group, and a few friends who worked with her who usually knew her well. There were about ten people in a room.

The food is mainly prepared by Youyu. There are Chinese-style hot meals and a lot of Western-style pastries. I bought the drinks, including wine and drinks. There are more than a dozen kinds of them at the bar for everyone to taste.

The Tave family came first, she took her little daughter by the hand, and stood under the porch with a big smile, followed by her husband and son.

Today's Tave is dressed up, her shoulder-length curly hair is flowing, and she wears dazzling and slightly exaggerated earrings on her ears, looking gentle and charming.You Yu and I warmly greeted them, and Tave and her little daughter Elisa wished us a happy new year.

You Yu took the red wine from Tave's hand and welcomed their family into the door.

Kasper and his father came through the door after the two ladies, both of whom were tall and made my otherwise modest room look a little cramped when they entered the living room, but they sat down quickly.

Not long after, Tatianna and Emile, members of You Yu's team who worked together in the university, came, and then several colleagues who worked with You Yu also came, one of them was her boss, a cool woman named Bente .

After everyone arrived, the atmosphere in the room became more and more lively. Everyone chatted with each other and discussed this very special New Year for them. You Yu stood in the middle of the room and explained the origin and meaning of Chinese New Year to them. Everyone showed confusion. Feeling serious expression.

After standing by the side and admiring Youyu who was doing a good job for a while, I walked over and tugged at the hem of her clothes, and she hurriedly said to everyone: "Everyone, this is An Zhizhi, you can also call her Ann."

Tave's youngest daughter, Elisa, jumped up happily from the sofa and yelled, "I know that, she is Youyu's girlfriend."

"Yes, Ann is my girlfriend." You Yu said generously.

Having been recognized, I took advantage of the situation and kissed You Yu on the cheek, and everyone started booing.

You Yu turned her face and looked at me with a twinkle in her eyes, I could see that she was in a particularly good mood today.

In the following time, we put all the food on the table. Most of the tableware was Chinese tableware. Everyone sat around and looked at the various dishes, feeling inexplicably excited.

Everyone has a bowl of rice in front of them, and most of the guests don't know how to use chopsticks, so they have to use forks and spoons to divide the dishes on different plates.

Watching them pick up the plate in the center of the table and divide the dishes into their own bowls, I had to hold back my laughter from the sidelines.

Everyone was so busy that they finally finished a round of dishes and could start tasting.

Tave was enjoying her Mu Shu meat, she forked a piece of fungus and asked, "What's this called?"

I quickly explained: "This one is called MuEr. It has a funny name in translation, it's called woodenears, but it's actually a kind of fungus."

Tave was shocked: "What, this is a fungus. God, I dare not eat it."

After seeing her reaction, I laughed and said, "This is an edible fungus, which is very good for the body, and it is very rich in vitamins."

Tave was not persuaded by me. Her husband Davi sat next to him and said bravely: "I'll try." Tave's husband used chopsticks. Then he raised his head enough to eat the fungus into his mouth.

"How?" Tave watched nervously as his husband chewed seriously.

"Well, not bad." Davi showed an expression of great enjoyment, and his affirmation also encouraged his son Kasper. Kasper also tried to eat a piece, and the others followed suit one by one, and then everyone nodded.

The little Elisa is also amazing in fighting power under the feeding of her parents. It seems that Chinese food is quite to her liking.

I was not far behind, and the pair of chopsticks in my hand never stopped from the beginning to the end. Looking around, I was the most active and skilled in eating on the whole table.

The one who ate the least was You Yu. She spent most of her time chatting with everyone and introducing dishes, and got up to go to the oven to pick up dishes twice.

I sat next to her, fearing that she would be hungry, so I secretly put food into her bowl twice. Every time I finished, she would eat it quickly, which made me very happy.

In the spirit of resolutely not wasting, everyone enthusiastically cleaned up all the dishes on the table. With the help of everyone, You Yu and I hurriedly cleaned up the table and then started to play music. The atmosphere became more and more relaxed .

Tave said to You Yu: "Yu, I heard you playing the flute in the room occasionally, today is your traditional festival, is it convenient for you to perform once?"

After hearing this, everyone booed together and asked You Yu to play a song, You Yu graciously agreed, and she went upstairs to get her flute box.

You Yu took out the flute from the flute box, and she told us that the piece she was going to play was called "A Beautiful Lady with a Lonely Lantern". After that, she checked and adjusted the flute membrane, and she immediately entered the state after trying the sound test.

As soon as the flute sounded, my heart was captured. After a few times, my eyes filled with tears. I didn't expect Youyu's flute sound to be so beautiful and exciting.

The originally cheerful flute sound was so beautiful that it made me cry. I didn't care about other people's reactions. I just stared at Youyu's devoted face, her downcast eyes, her nimble and jumping fingers, and her hair. Si's mood was perfectly set off, and my whole being was sucked in.

At the end of the song, everyone applauded wildly, and I belatedly followed suit.

You Yu bowed slightly to everyone, then put her flute into the flute box.

After the performance, everyone chatted for a while, and the Tave family stood up to say goodbye. Tave's youngest daughter, Elisa, was staggering sleepily. You Yu and I drove them all the way to the car before waving goodbye.

Back home, the second half of the party was more lively and free-spirited.

Youyu's colleagues and friends come from five or six different countries, so music from various countries began to play in turn, and everyone ordered songs at will. Tatianna played a song from country E. This song is very familiar. I heard it on TV when I was a child, and You Yu also knew it. She hummed along with the music.

After Tatiana sang a few lines in E language, she asked You Yu to sing with her, and You Yu agreed.

You Yu and Tatianna sang together with the music. They sang the same tune in their own language. At the high pitch, Tatianna's voice began to tremble, and You Yu sang in falsetto. After she finished singing, there was a feeling of reverberation.

Tatianna exclaimed: "Wow, you sing so beautifully, this song is so beautiful to sing in your language, you are so good, Youyu."

I was extremely proud beside me, and I only found out that Youyu sings so well today, and I am actually a typical tone deaf.Thinking of every time I sang, I was pulling my throat, as if I was about to die, and I felt a little ashamed.

The party was at its height and everyone started dancing to the music when there was a knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!There was a loud knock on the door, and then a loud knock, You Yu and I glanced at each other, all the people we invited have come.

Everyone didn't stop dancing, and I heard a woman's voice outside the door shouting: "Open the door, police!"

You Yu looked at me suspiciously, I took her hand and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."

I walked through the crowd towards the door, and You Yu hurriedly followed behind me.

Through the peephole, I saw a woman in police uniform standing at the door. There was no one else around her, so I opened the door.

The policewoman outside the door pushed the door a little arrogantly, walked straight in with one hand on her hips and a cowboy hat in the other.

Although the policewoman has a domineering attitude, she is not the thick and strong type. On the contrary, she has a graceful figure, tall and straight.

You Yu and I felt that this person was more and more strange, we closed the door and we followed her inside, I kept my voice steady and said, "Excuse me..."

The woman walked to the center of the living room, raised her hand suddenly, put the hat on her head, pointed to a group of us and said, "You are under arrest for..."

Speaking of the word "crime", she suddenly stopped.

I swallowed nervously. Could it be that we were too noisy just now, and the neighbor next door called the police?

"Your charges are not high enough!"

"Wh... what?" I was suddenly confused, and I wondered if I was hallucinating.

Bente on the side smiled mysteriously, and she turned off the headlights in the living room, leaving only an ocean art lamp and candles on the windowsill for illumination.I looked at You Yu in the dim light, and You Yu shrugged at me, which meant that she didn't know what was going on.

"Music is on!" The beautiful woman in police uniform yelled. Bente turned on the music that had just been paused and turned it up by one degree. Fortunately, my house was a little far from the houses on both sides, and the windows were soundproofed. The effect is not bad, so if the music is louder, it should not be too disturbing.

The beautiful woman in uniform started to pluck the tie around her neck, then lifted it up and circled it, and threw it directly into the air.

At this moment, no matter how dull I was, I knew what was going on. Bente squeezed up beside me and said, "Ann, this is my New Year's gift for you and Yu. Do you like it?"

I was embarrassed and said, "I like it, thank you for your gift."

Just finished speaking, the beautiful woman in uniform has danced to me, she touched my shoulder along my neck, my whole body went numb, and I subconsciously glanced at Youyu, only to see Youyu looking at me with a smile, gloating look.

I gritted my teeth with hatred, bit my back molars, and thought viciously in my heart: "You can have fun first."

The beauty in uniform was exposed to rain and dew, and had a little ambiguity with everyone present. After dancing for a while, the clothes on the beauty in uniform became cooler and cooler, and her perfect curves were exposed unintentionally.

A few women also used salty hands to interact with the beauty in uniform and tucked rolled banknotes into her belt.

Bente took out a pack of cigarettes and asked around. I took one, and when I was hesitating whether to smoke it, I found that Youyu already had one in his hand, and Bente had already lit it for her. So shocked.

I usually smoke one or two occasionally, but most of them are for entertainment, especially when a female client who can smoke invites me, I will accompany me to smoke for a while. .

In fact, in the many years I have been with You Yu, that was the only time she smoked.

Seeing the cigarette in You Yu's hand, I was suddenly charmed by her expression, I like You Yu at this moment.

I went to You Yu through the crowd and asked her, "You... know how to smoke?"

"I won't." You Yu said frankly.

"Then you..." I don't know how to ask.

"I just want to try it, I won't inhale it in my lungs," she assured me.

Looking at her exquisite face, I was stunned. I raised the cigarette in her hand, lowered my head and dropped my cigarette butt on her flickering cigarette butt. He raised his head and exhaled the cigarette, squinting at her.

You Yu knew that I was playing cool, so she tried not to laugh out loud. She put the cigarette on her lips, took a puff seriously, and then exhaled quickly. Seeing her smoking so solemnly, I couldn't understand. I really think she looks very ladylike holding a cigarette, I love this woman to death.

You Yu meant to put out the cigarette after taking a few puffs, and put it in the ashtray. As soon as she turned around, she bumped into me behind her. They kissed lightly, smelling each other's tobacco smell, ambiguous and beautiful.

The noisy party came to an end. Bente, who was too drunk, hugged and bid farewell to us with the beauty in uniform. The others were also a little bit drunk. Everyone went to the entrance to get their coats and bags. Youyu and I kept it as the hosts. The necessary sobriety, bid farewell to everyone one by one.

After closing the door, there were only the two of us left in the room. Before Youyu could walk into the house, I hugged Youyu excitedly, and said in her ear: "Youyu, I am really happy today."

"Me too." You Yu also embraced me.

I lowered my head to look for her lips, when her mobile phone rang in the living room, breaking our bond in an instant.

I had no choice but to let go of Youyu and let her answer the phone. I was afraid that the person who went out just dropped something, or there was something urgent.

You Yu found her mobile phone on the table. When I followed her, she froze when she looked at the screen of the mobile phone.

She didn't answer the phone right away, but struggled to look at the name on the phone screen. After a few seconds, she finally picked it up: "Hello, Mom."

mom?I subconsciously looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost seven o'clock in the morning in China, which is the first day of the new year. Could it be that her mother missed her?

But judging from You Yu's expression, she doesn't seem to be very close to her mother.

You Yu turned around and gestured to me to go upstairs, then lowered her head and whispered to the phone: "Mom, wait a moment."

I saw You Yu hurried upstairs, and I wandered around the living room by myself, waiting for You Yu to come down from the phone.

I didn't want to eavesdrop, but I couldn't help pricking up my ears, wondering when she'd finish calling.

The faint voice from upstairs stopped, but she never came down. I waited for another 10 minutes. I was sure she should have finished calling, but she still didn't come down.

I tried to call her name, but there was no response. I stood under the stairs and looked up, but there was no movement upstairs.I walked up the stairs lightly, and when I reached the stairs, I saw Youyu lying on the bed. I thought she was asleep and was about to go downstairs, but saw her quilt move.

Only then did I realize that Youyu was hiding under the blanket and sobbing, my heart was suddenly pulled and ached, I subconsciously felt that the phone call just now was not pleasant, she must have been wronged.

I walked to her bed, knelt on the carpet at the head of her bed, and softly called her name.

You Yu buried her head in the quilt, she was trying her best to control her crying, at this moment I felt her sadness was about to overwhelm me.
