Chapter 1: The Future of Early Summer (1)

At two o'clock in the morning, after Xia Youran finished the work at hand, she wanted to sleep immediately, but after looking at the date of the day, she no longer felt sleepy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info June 19, the date displayed on the phone screen.

"Time flies, it's been eight years. It's been so long that I've almost forgotten your face...... No, if you close your eyes now, I really can't remember your face, I'm so sorry......" She said, closed the computer, cleaned up the desktop briefly, opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the study and walked out.

Unlike the countryside, even in the middle of the night, you can't see the shining stars at night, the only thing you can see is the glowing neon lights, the light from the windows of the residents, and the car lights coming and going.

The summer of eighteen years old is the worst summer, even today, Xia Youran thinks so, of course, she thought that it should be the most painful thing in her life, but, unexpectedly, it was just the beginning.

There are still a few days before the summer solstice, and now it is not early summer in the full sense, and the wind at two o'clock in the morning at this time is still a little cold, and Xia Youran shivered after standing for a long time. Because she has always been afraid of heat, she has been wearing a sundress in the room, and there is no one else at home anyway, so it doesn't seem to matter if she wears it like this. She kept rubbing her arms with her hands, but it didn't seem to work at all, and the cold air kept pouring in from the back of her neck. She stomped her foot several times, not warming her body, and went back to the study, closing the floor-to-ceiling window.

Walking out of the study, she gently opened the door on the left hand side of the study, and by the light coming in through the window, there was a little boy about seven or eight years old lying on the bed, probably because he felt that it was too hot, and he kicked the thin quilt used to press his stomach. She chuckled, "It's really a child...... As she spoke, she pulled the child's quilt back and stroked his sweat-soaked hair, "Is it really that hot?" Sweating so much......"

It was still a little windy outside the window, so she stood up and opened a crack in the window so that the wind outside the window could blow into the room. After all this, she walked out of this room satisfied, if she hadn't had this child at that time, maybe she wouldn't have survived until now.

At six o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang in the next room, but it seemed to be an inconsequential sound to her, and she didn't feel sleepy at all last night, and she thought she would stay awake all night, but she still slept like a dead pig. Time will always heal the pain, and she is not as sad as she was at the beginning.

"Xia Youran!" Bai Xiao crossed his waist and stood in front of Xia Youran's bed, "What time is it and you can't get up!" ”

"Mom?" Xia spoke leisurely in a daze. (Much like back then, before going to school, my mother would always yell at her like this to wake her up, and suddenly I felt so nostalgic...... )

Hearing Xia Youran call himself mom, Bai Xiao almost laughed, but he still barely held back, leaned over, and pulled Xia Youran's face with his little hand, "You show me clearly, who is mom in the end?" ”

Xia Youran, who felt the pain all of a sudden, opened his eyes and looked at Bai Xiao's naughty expression, the guy watched Xia Youran open his eyes, and then he reluctantly let go of his fleshy little hand, "Get up quickly, otherwise you will be late again!" ”

Bai Xiao is in the first grade of the primary school not far from his home, and he has always taken the motorcycle that Xia leisurely rides to and from school in kindergarten, but since the accident, they have changed to take the subway to and from school, and it is about three stops to get to school.

"Class is only half past seven, and it's still too late......" Xia Youran yawned loudly.

"You said that yesterday and the day before yesterday, and every time you were late because you couldn't get on the subway......"

"It's only occasionally crowded, and it's not the rush hour yet, so it's okay!"

"So, in order to avoid that situation, it's better to go out early!"

"Yes, yes, my eldest young master, the little one will get up immediately......"

"I'll give you half an hour at most, so it's faster!" After Bai Xiao said all this, he walked out of Xia Youran's room, and finally didn't forget to close the door.

After Xia Youran finished washing, he found that Bai Xiao had finished breakfast, and there was still a portion on the table for Xia Youran: toast bread with strawberry jam, boiled eggs with peeled eggshells, and a poured cup of pure milk.

It is precisely because Xia Youran's life is super irregular, so Bai Xiao has developed such a good habit since he was a child. Although Xiao is relatively young, he is also a ghostly guy, and he just uses an egg boiler to cook a boiled egg, and it doesn't take any effort at all. When a child of the same age was still spoiled in his mother's arms, he was already able to do everything independently.

Xia Youran always has no rules when she eats, and she is the kind of person who eats or not. Seeing that the time was almost up, she shoved a whole hard-boiled egg into her mouth, and after a few bites, poured all the rest of the milk down, almost choking.

"Ah, if you choke to death from eating breakfast, how miserable your life must be!" Xiao, who was sitting opposite Xia Youran and waiting, said such a sentence coldly.

"Stinky little ghost, if I die, then who will send you to school?" Xia leisurely breathed a sigh of relief before replying.

"I'm not a ghost, I can already ride the subway alone. You will definitely be able to reach the school safely! When Bai Xiao said this, his eyes were full of pride. According to his recent observations, the route to and from school is already well understood, and it is no problem to go it alone.

"There have been a lot of traffickers lately, what if you get kidnapped?" Xia Youran leaned down and pinched Bai Xiao's face, his skin at his age was really slippery, and it was much better than himself.

"I'm not as easily fooled as those fools." Bai Xiao said a little unhappily. Of course, there were abducted and trafficked children in the community a while ago, and Bai Xiao knew about it, although he was rescued by luck, he still made people panic, which is why no matter how tired he was, Xia Youran would personally send Bai Xiao to and from school.

"Some of them are directly robbed, how can you deal with an adult with such a small physique?"

"I've practiced taekwondo well!"

"That's not enough, because your opponent isn't a child of the same age, but a stronger adult!" Xia Youran patted Bai Xiao on the shoulder and signaled to him that if he didn't leave, he would really be late this time.

Although the subway is only three stops away. But it still takes some time from home to the subway entrance, and it takes at least 40 minutes to come and go. But fortunately, there were not many people on the subway today, and we arrived at school at 7:15.

"Let's go in......" Xia leisurely waved his hand at Bai Xiao, Bai Xiao went to elementary school a year earlier than other children, and he looked very short among those children, seeing his back when he went in, I don't know why his nose was sour, and he felt particularly bitter, since that incident happened, this child seems to have been blocking his heart, looking lively and jumping, but he always doesn't say what he thinks, he is always very reckless and independent in some aspects, if he is coquettish, he may be very cute. Even if he lives with Xia Youran, he seems to be very careful. The child was very sensitive and observant. This question seems to have always been entangled in Xia Youran, and she tried to get into his heart, but it seemed that she was rejected.

Xia Youran stood at the school gate until she couldn't see Bai Xiao before she turned around and left from the school gate. Parents who came to take their children to school gathered at the school gate, and she took out her mobile phone from her bag and looked at the time, 7:20.

"The flower shop around here hasn't opened yet, it's ...... so early," she muttered quietly.

Eight years ago, on June 19, Xia Youran's mother died in an accident, the plane had a tail-flicking accident when it landed, everything was too sudden, her life suddenly darkened, and then, because of that incident, her life trajectory changed completely, maybe it is because of this that she will become what she is now.
