Chapter 4: Confession (2)
Lin Yansheng's face was also red, she was breathing nervously, looking at Mu Yi's reaction from the corner of her eye, seeing that he was stunned, he didn't move, as if he was stopped.
She couldn't help but be a little annoyed, half because he was ashamed, half because he didn't show the reaction he expected, he should be happy and excited, didn't he like himself?
When the nervousness and excitement in his heart subsided, Mu Yi still didn't react at all. Lin Yansheng took a deep breath and turned his head to look at Mu Yi, but saw that his face was unspeakably red, as if his head had been scalded by boiling water.
Lin Yansheng couldn't help laughing, laughed out loud, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on Mu Yi's head, and asked, "You, what the hell are you-" Mu Yi grabbed her hand, which startled Lin Yansheng, he stared at Lin Yansheng, his face was still red, and he stammered and asked, "I, I can't be dreaming, right?" Lin Yansheng lowered his head, showing a touch of shyness on his face, she hesitated, quickly pecked Mu Yi's cheek again, pulled out his hand and turned his head.
Mu Yi was so excited that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he raised his hand, touched the place on his face that had been kissed by Lin Yansheng, and looked at the back of her head blankly, still refusing to believe it.
"Mu Yi. After a while, Lin Yansheng suddenly said, she turned her back to him, and her voice was a little dull,
"I know, I know your feelings for me, and so do I for you—" She paused and smiled again,
"I can promise you, but you also have to promise me that I will take the exam tomorrow and not disappoint my uncle and aunt. ”
"I, I know. Mu Yi hurriedly responded, his head was a little unable to react,
"But, promise what?" Lin Yansheng closed her eyes, crying and laughing, she turned to look at Mu Yi, sighed, and said, "Then you don't have anything to say to me?"
"I-" Mu Yi's hand left his cheek, and he remembered the sweet touch just now, and an urge arose in his heart.
He never thought of confessing his heart to Lin Yansheng, Lin Yansheng was too beautiful for him, he just wanted to protect her well and watch her perfect and happy life, which was enough.
But today, Yan Sheng kissed him, does it mean that they can have a further development?
When Mu Yi thought of this, his heart seemed to be bursting with countless sweet popcorn from the popcorn machine, he felt nervous, looked at Lin Yansheng's clean pair of eyes, with a bit of momentum, and said quickly,
"Yan Sheng, I actually like you!" Lin Yansheng smiled gently, she looked at him seriously, and said, "Didn't I say that I promised you?"
"Promise me?" Mu Yi looked at her puzzled, and it took him a long time to react, and he was even more incredulous, and his beautiful eyes widened.
"But don't forget the rest of the words, take the exam tomorrow. Lin Yansheng smiled and stood up.
She stuffed the handkerchief in her hand into Mu Yi's hand and said with a smile,
"Wipe the sweat off your face, I'll go up first. With that, he turned around and walked towards the elevator. Mu Yi held the handkerchief in his hand, looked at her back excitedly, and when he couldn't see it, he waved his hand excitedly, turned around and ran towards the way he came.
So, within half an hour, as long as anyone who knew Mu Yi, they all knew that he was born with Lin Yan.
In fact, there are many people who don't care, and there are also people who are glad that Mu Yi finally ended this crush, but no matter what, they sincerely blessed him, and then duly mentioned that he would have an exam tomorrow and let him rest early.
Mu Yicai didn't care about this idea, he jumped up and down on the bed excitedly, almost collapsing the bed.
Mu Yukai and his wife heard the movement, crowded at the door and asked him what was wrong. Mu Yi jumped and said excitedly: "Yan Sheng is with me!" Mu Yukai laughed when he heard it, shook his head, and said, "You kid, you're dreaming again." ”
"Dad, don't believe it!" Mu Yi was unconvinced and shouted loudly. Mu Yukai ignored it, only waved his hand with his back to him, and said, "Go to bed early, I have an exam tomorrow!" Only the mother was still standing at the door, looking at him with satisfaction, nodded, and said: "My son has grown up! But no matter how happy you are, you still have to take the exam tomorrow, don't get too excited, come out and drink a cup of hot milk and go to bed quickly!"
"Got it, got it!" Mu Yi jumped out of bed, pushed his mother out of the door, closed the door, and jumped back on the bed.
He lay down, looked at the ceiling for a while, and looked at Lin Yansheng's photo for a while, even if he won the lottery and won 100 million, he couldn't be happier than now.
The consequence of being too happy is that he stays up late. He barely slept all night, and got up the next day with a pair of panda eyes.
But a young man is a young man, and he doesn't feel tired at all, but feels more energetic. After having breakfast casually and saying hello to his parents, he jumped out of the door with his schoolbag on his back.
The weather is really nice today, the sky is blue and the clouds are white, and the cool wind is blowing. When passing by the plum tree planted by his father in the corner of the yard, Mu Yi naughtily snapped his fingers at it and said early, as if the tree could really understand him.
He took a car and went straight to the examination room, and met the head teacher and some of the students in the class at the entrance of the examination room, Tao Qirui was also inside, as soon as she saw him, Tao Qirui hurriedly walked towards him, until she saw his dark circles, she exclaimed, and asked, "Didn't you sleep last night?"
"No!" Mu Yi said happily, he lowered his voice mysteriously,
"I forgot to tell you, Yan Sheng is with me!So today, I will definitely be able to perform extraordinarily, little teacher, just wait and see how I perform!" As if a thunder exploded above her head, Tao Qirui was stunned for a moment, she looked at Mu Yi blankly, she couldn't care about the shyness and blushed anymore, and the words that came out of his mouth seemed to pour several buckets of cold water on her heart, freezing her whole body, and she couldn't move anymore.
It wasn't until Mu Yi walked into the examination room and the teacher waved at her that Tao Qirui reacted. Her heart was in turmoil, as if several people were cutting back and forth on her heart with knives.
She walked into the examination room in despair, found her seat and sat down, and stared blankly at the invigilator handing out the test papers.
The words on the test paper were like little ants scratching people's hearts, and she couldn't settle down. Fortunately, the first test was Chinese, and it took Tao Qirui a few minutes to calm down.
She clenched her fists, closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped the sweat from her hands, and looked up to see the invigilator looking at her with a frown and suspicion.
She hurriedly lowered her head, picked up the pen, and took another deep breath, trying to focus on the paper.
"Tao Qirui, no matter what, do the test paper well first! Concentrate! Concentrate!" she shouted in her heart, her previous self-control returned to her body, although her heart was still uncomfortable, she was already able to concentrate on the test paper.
The two days of exams were very difficult and passed very quickly. After more than ten years of study, it finally ended when the last test paper was handed in, and as for whether those test papers can bring a good future, it depends on the results of each person's exam.
Mu Yi was triumphant and felt that he had played very well. Although Tao Qirui is in a low mood, her performance is also calm, and she estimates that her results will not be too good, but they will not be very bad.
When she stepped out of the examination room, she anxiously looked for Mu Yi's figure in the crowd. In the past two days, she has not only been actively preparing for the exam, but also thinking a lot, in fact, she doesn't need to feel painful and sad for Mu Yi and Lin Yansheng to be together, from the moment she fell in love with Mu Yi, she has been warning herself in her heart that Mu Yi will not like her, nor will she be with her, her only purpose is to be friends with him and watch him happy.
Such a result will always come, but sooner than she expected, so why should she feel sad?
Besides, Mu Yi has liked Lin Yansheng for so long, and it is natural for them to be together. When she thought of this, Tao Qirui smiled bitterly, Mu Yi's crush was successful, but her crush was far away, she didn't even have Mu Yi's contact information, maybe after the exam, the two of them would go straight to the east and west, and they would never see each other again.
But Tao Qirui has never been a person who gives up so easily, when she handed in the English answer sheet, a voice suddenly roared in her heart, I can't live without Mu Yi, I can't live without Mu Yi.
Yes, her life is dull and boring, because of Mu Yi, she has become colorful and expectant, if there is no Mu Yi, she wants to return to that gray life, she is unwilling and unacceptable.
After the exam, she rushed out of the classroom, waiting for the children in the pile of parents and the students who came out with her anxiously, finally, she saw the familiar back, the back was facing away from her, was talking to two middle-aged people, even if she didn't see his face, Tao Qirui could imagine his demeanor, eyebrows fluttering, radiant, beautiful like an angel in another world.
She didn't care much, ran behind Mu Yi, patted him on the shoulder, and shouted out of breath: "Mu Yi!" Mu Yi turned around in surprise, saw that it was her, and immediately smiled, he turned his head to his parents and briefly introduced Tao Qirui, and then turned back to her and asked,
"How's it going?"
"It's okay. Tao Qirui glanced at Mu Yi's parents shyly, and saw them looking at her, with a peaceful smile on their faces, especially the aunt, Mu Yi seemed to come out of the same mold as her, both had a pair of beautiful eyes, fair skin, and could be easily recognized by standing in the crowd.
"Don't be modest, your usual grades are good, and this exam will definitely be good. Mu Yi seemed to be a little anxious,
"I've gone to dinner with my parents, so you should go back early. ”
"Wait a minute!" Tao Qirui hurriedly shouted, taking out her mobile phone,
"You give me your mobile phone number. Mu Yi stuffed the slices of bread in his hand into his mouth, snatched Tao Qirui's mobile phone, quickly pressed it a few times, and then handed it back to her, and said vaguely: "WeChat has been added, and I will contact more if I have something to do in the future, I will go first!" He grabbed his parents' shoulders, and the three of them walked forward side by side with laughter.
Tao Qirui glanced down at her phone, and then at their backs, and felt a strong sense of envy in her heart.
How nice, their family. Her eyes were hot, her nose was sore, and she almost burst into tears, but she quickly reined in herself, turned and walked slowly towards home.
Her house is in a winding alley, with clothes poles sticking out of her head, on which clothes of various colors are hung, fluttering slightly in the wind.
After walking down a path mixed with sand and dust, she reached the door of her small supermarket and shouted inside, "Mom! I'm back!" without responding.
Tao Qirui is used to it, maybe her mother went to the back to sort out the goods. She walked slowly to the back of the supermarket shelf, where there were two beds and a small table, the space was very cramped, and she could barely accommodate three people, this is where she usually lives with her mother, and it is her home.
She took her bag off her shoulder and threw it on her bed, and was about to sit down when she heard a noise outside.
"Just hand it to me, thank you!" it was her mother's voice, but Tao Qirui was so tired that she lay back, spreading her hands and feet, enjoying the comfort of stretching.
After lying down for a minute, her mobile phone rang, and then her mother rushed in, looked at her reproachfully, and said, "Why did you come back quietly and didn't say a word to me." ”
"I shouted, you're not there. Tao Qirui sat up and looked at her mother, who was thin and haggard, and looked at least a few years older than her real age.
"You come out. Tao Mu put away the reproach on her face, showed a mysterious smile, and waved her hand.
Tao Qirui was puzzled, followed her mother out, and saw a large cake on the glass counter, a castle built with white cream, and a pair of villains snuggling together at the door of the castle.
Her eyes widened in surprise and exclaimed, "Cake!" Mother Tao sat down on the chair and looked at her daughter with a smile.
"Didn't you keep clamoring for cake? I just happened to order one for you after your exam today. Quick, the knives and plates are all over there, cut them yourself. Tao Qirui looked at her mother, her little lips curled, and she was about to cry.
Since her father's death, her mother worked hard to pull her up, her mother's temperament is strong, she only knows how to make money to support her, and she never shows any feelings, Tao Qirui is sensitive, she has always felt that her mother doesn't love her, and her mother only loves money.
But at this moment, when she saw the cake and the expectant smile on her mother's face, her heart seemed to be melted by something, and the tears could no longer be held back, and they flowed down her cheeks.
Tao Mu hurriedly stood up, hurriedly wiped away her tears, and said angrily: "What are you crying about! You still cry when I bought you a cake, this cake is very expensive, more than two hundred." Tao Qirui wiped away the tears on her face and said with a smile: "I'm happy!" she turned her head to look at the cake and said,
"Just buy a cheap one, why buy such an expensive one. ”
"I want to buy a cheap one, and you can't shout in your heart that my mother only loves money, not me. Tao Mu smiled, turned around and walked towards the shelves, sorting out the goods on the shelves.
"Mom!" Tao Qirui stomped her feet twice,
"You peek at my diary!"
"You're my daughter, I'll see what's wrong. Tao Mu smiled, but there was a crystal flash in the corner of her eye.
Tao Qirui bit her lip, but laughed out loud, she cut a piece of cake, sent it to her mother, watched her mother eat the first bite, and then ran to cut a piece for herself.
The mother and daughter take a bite and I take a bite, outlining a beautiful picture in the light of the setting sun.
