The next day, the rain that lasted for a few days finally stopped, and the city of Nanjing ushered in the long-lost sunshine, and the temperature also rose significantly compared with the previous days, but this could not stop the decline of the dead leaves, and autumn was really coming, and everyone in the city, including me, said goodbye to the summer and early autumn life of drinking beer in short sleeves and shorts after this rain.

This morning, I got up very early, I trimmed the bonsai that would still grow in autumn and winter, and then took out the books on making pastries that Xiao Ai specially sent me last night, made a pot of tea, and sat on the chaise longue to read the good morning sun.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of the small courtyard, I thought it was Qiao Ye who came to eat breakfast again, and responded impatiently, and then walked to the door, but when I opened the door, I was a little dumbfounded, and then a burst of inexplicable joy rose in my heart, because it was Chen Yi who was standing in front of me at this moment.

Today, she was wearing a white knitted scarf and a black coat, and her complexion looked very good, so that the delicate melon seed face was full of ruddy color, but in an instant, she asked me with a cold face: "Your tone is so impatient, do you really not want me to come?" ”

I hurriedly explained: "No, I thought it was Qiao Ye who came to eat breakfast again, but I didn't expect it to be you...... By the way, aren't you going to work in Taili today, we all made an appointment yesterday, and I'll pick you up from work in the evening. ”

"I called and compromised my colleagues...... Hey, I bought you breakfast, your favorite food. ”

I took the convenience bag from Chen Yi's hand, and sure enough, it was my favorite preserved egg and lean porridge, as well as two bottles of hot milk, although she didn't make it herself, but it must have taken a lot of thought, because I really liked it.

……

I wiped the remaining traces of water off the stone table, and then began to eat breakfast with Chen Yi as a couple for the first time. We didn't talk much, but we put eating second, and kept looking at each other in the gap, especially me, because I really liked her dress today, fashionable but not enchanting, mature and not old, just like her heart, she is a woman of high quality. And it's not just me who thinks so, everyone who knows Chen Yi, and even TV viewers, evaluate her like this, so everyone is guessing who will become the true son of her life for such an excellent woman.

Chen Yi avoided my eyes a little shyly, and then habitually pinned the falling hair behind his ears and said to me, "Why do you keep staring at me and have breakfast." ”

"Do you know I'm looking at you if you don't look at me?"

"You're a bit of a scoundrel!"

I replied seriously: "I'd rather be a scoundrel than look at you seriously and be speechless." ”

"Why are you speechless?"

"If we hadn't grown up together since childhood, and it was just the first time we met, I would definitely be speechless when I looked at a beautiful woman with a temperament like you, can you understand this feeling? …… So I'm very glad that time pinched us together early, otherwise we must be people from two worlds, and there would not be such an intersection as now! ”

"You mean, we don't have anything but time?"

"Yes, but we don't lack anything but time!"

……

After breakfast, I saw that the weather was very good, so I proposed to Chen Yi: "The weather is so good today, where do you want to go?" ”

"I don't want to go anywhere."

"So what do you have to do so that you don't waste such good weather?"

Chen Yi thought for a while and replied: "I always host shows for others to watch, and today I want to sit on the sofa and watch a variety show for a day to make up for my glass heart that is always injured at work." ”

Chen Yi's self-deprecation made me smile, but there was more distress in this smile. I know that she is very tired from work, and I also know that she is a trusting woman in her career, not an active woman like Jin Qiu, so I know that the person who is really suitable for her is Qiu Zi'an and not me, but we are only 25 years old, and we dare to take love as a bet, and the bet is the mood of wanting to be together, it's just that simple, because in the more than 20 years I have lived, there is really nothing that can make Chen Yi have a picture.

After pondering for a while, I finally replied to Chen Yi: "Okay, then stay at home and watch TV...... I remember the last time we did this together, when we were in elementary school, but at that time I watched cartoons, and now it has become a variety show hosted by you. ”

"Are you lamenting how fast time flies?"

"It's fast enough! At that time, I was innocent, but now I have to take all kinds of understandings of life, as well as the pressure of life on us, to find a way in this world, to find happiness, but the happiness that I deliberately find is really not as good as happiness to take the initiative to find it, so this is also the reason why everyone likes to miss childhood, everything at that time was natural. For example, you and I, even if we are together every day, others just think that we are not guessing, and will not use the ruler that can kill people to measure us. ”

Chen Yi nodded, and then replied: "Jiang Qiao, my biggest pain is probably to see the world too thoroughly, but you can't live with an attitude beyond this world, so sometimes I really hope that you are an idealist with executive power, so you will live a more chic and charismatic life!" ”

I know what Chen Yi means, she hopes that since we are together, we will stop thinking too much about worldly eyes and other people's rumors. But this just shows that the gap between us is obvious, so obvious that we must take it out and talk about it, and then use ideology to overcome this gap. And if I really want to catch up with Chen Yi in terms of material possession, it will be impossible to achieve it in a few years, or even longer.

……

After the agreement was reached, the whole day began with her rare time with me. Originally, I was worried that it would be difficult for us to adapt to such a change after decades of being together, but when we actually snuggled up on the sofa and watched TV together, I realized that such worries were actually unnecessary, because Chen Yi seemed to be mentally prepared to become my girlfriend, she has been very close to my arms, and then shared the snacks she was eating with me.

But for a moment, I felt that nothing had changed, even if Chen Yi was not my girlfriend before, we were as close as we are now.

I finally lowered my head to look at her, feeling the fragrance of her hair, my heart was overflowing with tenderness, and I unconsciously hugged her tighter, I really love this woman so much!

Loved in the past, present, and future......

The time of this day passed so lightly, and when it was almost dusk, I finally remembered that Xiao Ai invited me to the concert, so I said to Chen Yi, who was watering the flowers and plants in the yard: "Tonight, a friend of Xiao Ai is going to hold a concert in the Sun Palace, and she gave me two tickets, let's go see it together." ”

Chen Yi replied through the window: "Okay, I know that friend of hers, he is a pretty good rock singer." ”

I was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”

"Have you forgotten that Xiao Ai is my aunt's student, when her mother was still teaching in Nanyi, she and my aunt were very good friends, and the rock singer also graduated from Nanyi, so they are all people in the Nanjing music circle, and everyone is quite familiar."

It dawned on me that it seemed that on the night Xiao Ai and Chen Yi lived together, the two really talked a lot, and it can even be said that they talked a lot, after all, the two have a deep relationship.

After a while, Chen Yi returned to the room, then stood in front of the mirror and combed her hair, while I changed into a more formal outfit to prepare for the concert later.

Suddenly, Chen Yi's mobile phone rang, and at first she didn't care too much about taking it out of her pocket, but when she saw the caller ID, her expression immediately changed, and then she answered it after a while of hesitation, and I could already feel who called her.

If love is a war, I don't want to put myself in the position of a victor at this moment, I made room for Chen Yi to communicate with Qiu Zi'an on the other end of the phone according to her heart, because I absolutely believe that she is a measured woman.

I sat in the courtyard and lit a cigarette and waited, and after a while, Chen Yi came out of the house, and she said to me in a negotiative tone: "Jiang Qiao, Zi'an asked me to meet alone, he has come to Nanjing...... I think there are some things that need to be made clear to him in person. ”

I inevitably felt a sense of crisis in my heart, but love needs trust, if I don't even want to give Chen Yi this trust at this time, then it can only prove that I love too passively and too insecurely, so in the end I still smiled and replied: "You go, go to me early after chatting, I'll wait for you over there." ”

Chen Yi nodded, then looked at me again, and I gently held her hand, and my mood was already in this silence.

……

Tonight's night was very good, I came to the Sun Palace alone, and then checked in and sat in the front position, and the concert had not yet started, only the band was doing the warm-up show before the opening, and Xiao Ai was among them.

At this moment, the band is playing a very rhythmic "loseyourselfdance", Xiao Ai seems to be in a good mood, she is holding an electric guitar in the center of the stage, acting as a guitarist and playing with the band, and a blue spotlight is falling on her, making her the focus of the scene.

Today, she wears a black tight leather pants, a very clean white shirt on the upper body, her hair is neatly combed, and she has a ponytail that will not fall apart. I saw the index finger and ring finger of her right hand quickly strumming the strings, and at the same time the little finger rhythmically hitting the top of the electric guitar, so that even I, a layman, could see that she had a very high level of guitar playing, and the keyboardist behind her also frequently gave her a thumbs up, surprised by her playing talent, and the audience in the audience even pointed the camera of their mobile phones at her, recording this extremely rare scene.

I'm sure in the next few decades, none of us here will ever have the opportunity to see such a beautiful girl and play the guitar so impressively. She is truly a woman born for the art of music! Because I can't use words or words to describe the visual and auditory impact she brought me at this moment!! ……
