Chapter 22: Sunshine
This may be the last good day, she thought.
It's ten in the middle of the night, the snow is falling outside the window, Cheng Zimu wakes up slowly, his body is full of sweat, sticky, in the dim room, there is no light, a slight breath comes, Xiaoli lies next to his bed, sleeps sweetly, the heating is on in the house, but she didn't cover the quilt, her hands are cold, a burst of distress spreads, Cheng Zimu got out of bed, carefully hugged her on the bed and covered the quilt, now he can easily pick her up, I haven't seen her for a long time, she has lost a lot of weight.
went to the bathroom to take a shower, sleepy, Cheng Zimu walked out with a coat, in the yard, the snowflakes were still floating, falling on his hands, refreshing, the sound of small footsteps sounded and turned around, Xiao Li's extremely sad eyes came into his eyes, Cheng Zimu suddenly smiled, "Woke you up?"
"What do you say, just after the fever has subsided, I came out to shake, and in the middle of the night, I enjoyed the snow. Xiao Li said angrily.
"I slept all afternoon, couldn't sleep, came out and looked. ”
"Look at what, look at the ghosts!".
"There are ghosts who have been scared away by you. Cheng Zimu chuckled
"I haven't settled accounts with you yet, you still dare to make fun of me, Cheng Zimu, you want to be beaten, right? Xiaoli shook his fist.
Cheng Zimu grabbed her outstretched hand, and with a gentle tug, Xiao Li was pulled into his arms, his head gently rested on the top of her head, Cheng Zimu's voice was soft and tired, "Xiao Li, the snow in Qingmei Town is the most beautiful." ”。
The small centrifugal tip trembled slightly, and wanted to break away, but was tightened by Chengzimu, and Chengzimu's arms tightened more and more, as if he was afraid that she would escape, as if, she would disappear.
"Cheng Zimu, you, what's wrong. ”。
"Xiaoli, I miss you so much. ”
"You ,,," Xiaoli's face turned red, but there was a faint pain in his heart.
"Xiaoli, don't be angry with me, don't be annoyed with me, I know I can't be by your side in the future, I know that the distance between us will get farther and farther away, but Xiaoli, no matter how far it is, no matter how long, don't push me away, don't forget me. Cheng Zimu's voice was gentle but inexplicably sad.
Xiao Li vaguely felt that his mood was wrong, but he couldn't bear to ask, nodded subconsciously, wrapped his hands around his waist, and was quiet and silent.
The snowflakes fell quietly, Xiaoli was buried in Cheng Zimu's heart, his heart was beating non-stop, Cheng Zimu's coat completely wrapped her, although there had been physical contact before, but it was the first time, such a long hug, and, there were similar confessional words to Cheng Zimu in front.
Xiaoli lowered his head and pouted, secretly scolding himself for being unproductive, and said that he wanted to clean him up well, but now he was blushing and heartbeat by his two sentences, and he felt sorry for him, hey!
Later, Xiaoli fell asleep in a daze when he thought about it, and in his sleep, he felt that he was gently picked up, cared for, and had a good night's sleep.
Cheng Zimu put her on his bed like holding a baby, watching her sleep sweetly, but this time, he did not hesitate at all, kissed her forehead, cheek, and kissed her lightly, imprinted on her lips, full of intoxicating tenderness.
The mobile phone on the table lit up, he sighed softly, typed a line, replied to the message, and then, turned off the phone, Heyi lay down beside Xiaoli, pillowed her head on his arm, and closed his eyes in satisfaction.
The sky is about to dawn, the snow has stopped, Xiao Li opened his eyes, heard bursts of laughter from the yard, pushed open the door, in a snow-white courtyard, Qu Qing, Xing Mo, Fang Yi, and Cheng Zimu, the four of them were smiling, throwing snowballs at themselves, and the snow smashed into their necks, which was completely cool.
"Xiaoli, come here, Momo and I are about to be stoned to death by them, come and avenge us. Qu Qing smiled and beckoned to her.
"Xiaoli, come on, we've been waiting for you for a long time. Xing Mo smiled sweetly.
Xiao Li rubbed her eyes, raised her feet and went out, stretched out her hand, Qu Qing walked towards her with a smile, suddenly, she stopped, her eyes were full of sadness, and she slowly fell on the snow, under her body was a dazzling piece of blood, stained red with snow all over the ground, Xiao Li found himself standing in place, but he couldn't move anymore, watching Qu Qing fall in the snow and cry, shouting in his mouth, "Xiao Li, Xiao Li, help me, help me." ”
"Xiaoqing!" Xiao Li suddenly screamed and sat up.
It turned out to be a dream, Xiao Li took a deep breath according to her heart, broke out in a cold sweat, looked up at the clock on the wall, it was ten o'clock, she was wearing slippers, opened the door, and came to the staircase, the living room was very lively, Zhang Tiancheng was busy in the kitchen, Xu Ying and Yang Minglang frowned sadly at a table, Chen Yan and Cheng Zimu were wearing an apron, holding a kitchen knife in their hands, chopping green onions while crying, looking funny, Xing Mo stood in front of the water pipe, although her back was to herself, but you could see that she was washing the dishes seriously.
Xiaoli was lying on the railing, a little distracted, and her heart was warm, but there was still a trace of regret, if, Qu Qing and Fang Yi were there, wouldn't it be the most perfect, now, she has a new friend, and Xing Mo is also by her side, but, Xiaoqing, will you come back for the New Year, you are alone in such a strange city, is there anyone to cook dumplings for you, is there anyone to count down with you, you, will you remember us, will you miss it, that year, we climbed to Qingmei Mountain, set off fireworks together, will you forget, we once said, go to high school together, go to college together, I abandoned you first, and now, you also want to forget us all, give up?
"Xiao Ion, you're embarrassed to stand there in a daze, we got up early in the morning to make dumplings and do coolies, you have slept until the sun is drying your buttocks, what are you rubbing, hurry down, don't think about just eating and drying." Chen Yan saw Xiao Li upstairs, raised his hand and shouted.
Xiaoli was pulled back to reality, watching the people downstairs busy in full swing, full of spring breeze, shaking his head, smiling, and going downstairs briskly.
"Yo, this young master's daughter, it's not bad, that's right, occasionally experience the life of our toiling people, is it also a novelty?"
"Ah, it's just you, the toiling public, Zhang Xiaoli, you tell jokes, Xing Mo hasn't opened his mouth yet, you're energetic, right? Xu Ying grabbed a piece of dough and squinted at her while rolling out the dumpling skin.
"What, even if it's not, you should also work, Leader Mao can say, do it yourself, have enough food and clothing. Xiao Li smiled and looked at their faces full of white flour.
Leng was put on an apron by Cheng Zimu, tied it to her from behind, and a chuckle sounded in her ears, "Leader Mao also taught us to unite and help each other, Comrade Zhang Xiaoli, please." After speaking, he pulled her to the board, stuffed a pair of chopsticks in his hand, and asked her to make dumplings.
Xiao Li's face turned red uncontrollably, since the two hugged last night, for Cheng Zimu's approach, she can no longer be as natural as before, just now, he seems to be stretching out from behind to put on an apron for himself, and talking in his ear, that situation, how to think about how ambiguous.
Seeing that Xiao Li didn't refute with a shy face, and sat honestly in the bag of dumplings, Zhang Tiancheng smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly, but he didn't intend to speak, some things, the more he stopped, the more he couldn't stop it, but ,,,。。
Chen Yan looked at the two of them, and a wicked smile appeared on his face, "Hey, hey, it's been a night, it's changed, this Xiaoli blushes, it's still a big girl in a sedan chair, see you for the first time, Chengzi, admire, admire!"
Several people changed their faces slightly, they didn't make a sound, but Xiaoli, they didn't fight with Chen Yan for the first time, lowered their heads, their faces were even redder, Cheng Zimu's eyes were crooked, he glanced at Chen Yan proudly, and continued to wave the kitchen knife to chop the green onions, and it seemed that he had chopped out the rhythm, no one noticed that Xing Mo behind him and Xu Ying on the side were a little pale, pursed their mouths, and seemed to crush the things in their hands.
At the end of the small episode, the hot dumplings came out of the pot, a group of people gathered around the dining table, Zhang Tiancheng took out two bottles of liquor, and found Cheng Zimu to drink for the first time, Chen Yan also came over, and finally, an elder with three juniors, drank more and more happily, and fell drunk at the table one by one.
Xiaoli helped his father into Grandpa Cheng's room to rest, and was grabbed by his father in a daze, and a tear flowed down his resolute cheek, "Yu Ran, Yu Ran, what to do, what to do, Yu Ran, I miss you very much."
Xiaoli's tears flowed down, she had never seen her father so sad, she knew that her parents' feelings were very deep, but in the end she had never seen or experienced it, and she had no impression of her mother herself, but her father had never forgotten it for so many years, and he was unwilling to remarry, except because of himself, but he was afraid that he would never be able to fit another person in his heart.
After settling down with his father, Xiao Li gently closed the door and retreated, and came to the living room, Chen Yan pulled Xing Mo, who looked embarrassed, desperately spit out bitter water, and said everything in a mess, Xu Ying helped Yang Minglang upstairs, Xiao Li walked to Cheng Zimu's side, and pulled him back to the room, but was pulled out of the door by Cheng Zimu, came to the backyard, and regardless of the snow on the swing, sat on it with one butt, and looked up at Xiao Li like a child, "Xiao Li, you push me." ”。
Xiao Li was amused by his appearance, carefully pushed his back, the swing slowly swinged, the snow had stopped, the sun rose, shining on the white ground, shining on the young smiling faces of the two, everything seemed to be as beautiful as ever.
Suddenly, Cheng Zimu let go of his hand and jumped down, Xiao Li was jumped, and was about to yell at him, but he was pulled over by Cheng Zimu's arm, and before he could stand firmly, his cold lips kissed his forehead, with a hint of wine, Xiao Li was instantly stunned, her brain was confused, she should have pushed him away, kicked him again, blamed him for taking advantage of herself, but she didn't have the strength.
His green kiss was on her forehead, cold and soft.
At the window, Xu Ying's eyes were gloomy, looking at the two people in the courtyard, a tear rolled down, paying tribute to her secret love that had disappeared before she could speak.
In a quiet courtyard, the figures of the two overlapped, hugging each other tightly, and in the sun, a love quietly blossomed.
A group of people panted and climbed to the top of Qingmei Mountain, the cold wind was howling, the girls were wrapped in zongzi, they ran together, had snowball fights together, yelled wildly, Chen Yan protected Xing Mo to death, making Xing Mo blushing from beginning to end, Xiaoli looked at Cheng Zimu who was running in the snow again, so dazzling, so happy, his heart suddenly hurt, it has been two years, this is the happiest time he laughed.
Cheng Zimu, you said that the snow in Qingmei Town is the most beautiful, but in the future, it is difficult to see, what made you come here, and what will eventually take us together and leave here.
Xing Mo sat down, took off her mask and gloves, picked up a handful of snow, and scattered it towards the valley, she turned her head and looked at Xiao Li's synthetic wood, her eyes were still gentle, and then she saw that Chen Yan didn't stand firmly, fell a dog and gnawed on, and laughed out loud.
That day, Chen Yan, who was full of embarrassment, lay in the snow and looked at Xing Mo in front of her, she smiled so charmingly, her eyes were bright and pure, in the snow, in the cold wind, became Chen Yan's warm sunshine, and after a long time, such a pure Xing Mo became a dream that Chen Yan could not forget in his life.
