A day earlier, the dawn fog had filled Boston.

The wheels of the trunk rattle in the streets in the early morning.

Shen Xi followed the navigation on his mobile phone and went around two full circles before he found Jiang Yan's house.

She wanted to surprise Jiang Yan, so she hid it from everyone and came on a night flight. Before leaving, he also posted two photos of visiting a department store two days ago in the circle of friends under the guise of it.

Thinking of Jiang Yan's possible "surprised" expression when he opened the door, Shen Xi was triumphant in his heart.

But it was a girl who opened the door, wearing a black silk shirt with an A-line skirt, no wrinkles at all, a light gray cashmere sweater that draped very well, a smart and capable appearance, and she was dressed like a bear like a middle school student.

Shen Xi glanced at the book in the girl's hand, it should be a professional with Jiang Yan, but she didn't understand the English words that were too complicated, and apologized ignorantly, feeling that she had gone to the wrong place.

Until the other party calmly said the sentence: "I'm Jiang's girlfriend, are you here to find him?" ”

Reflexively, he said that he was indeed looking for the wrong person, whether the other party believed it or not, he pulled the box and ran.

After running out of two streets, the tendon in Shen Xi's mind turned around.

She's a fart.

Shouldn't you reply directly: "I'm Jiang Yan's girlfriend, who are you?" ”

Shen Xi pulled the box and walked back, the road was not complicated, as soon as he walked, it took half an hour.

Unfamiliar streets, different buildings, signs that you don't understand, people are speaking another language. She has come to another world.

In another world, Jiang Yan would not like another girl? Shen Xi was suddenly unsure. I know that making a phone call to ask Jiang Yan at this time is the best way.

But Shen Xi suddenly didn't dare to face it.

She was really worried that Jiang Yan would say to her on the other end of the phone, in a flat tone like water: "Shen Xi, we have never been together." ”

She herself also felt that a person like Jiang Yan would not do such a bad job, what she was afraid of was that in Jiang Yan's heart, she was just the little girl next door who loved to pester him, the girl who was very suitable for marriage, not a girlfriend in the real sense.

It's not a girlfriend, so there's no need to sue her for a new girlfriend.

After standing in front of that house for two hours, Shen Xi turned around and went straight to the airport.

She's such a useless ostrich.

There were people coming and going in the airport, Shen Xi wrapped the small cloak on his body, his body warmed up a little, and tears fell down the ground.

Xiao Jiang, this bastard, there is a woman in the house in the early morning!

Angry, Shen Xi opened the suitcase and decided to throw away all the things that were given to Jiang Yan inside.

The 28-inch suitcase was full, and some of it was her change of clothes.

More of it is for Jiang Yan, Jiangcheng's Jin Junmei is mellow and rich, but the United States does not have it; Almighty old godmother, I heard that this place is expensive and not authentic; stomach medicine, knowing that he often stayed up late, bought the brand he used to eat for a long time; Chocolate, there are chocolates all over the streets of the United States, but this one is made by Shen Xi himself......

Shen Xi pulled out bags one by one, and by accident, most of the boxes were empty.

The garbage bin was not far away, and as soon as Shen Xi got up, there was a sore feeling in his legs......

The old problem, she has been sitting for more than 20 hours and standing for a long time, it is time to have a seizure.

Shen Xi grabbed the bag of chocolates in his hand, and suddenly thought of the beginning-

Shen Xi learned to dance, practiced from the age of 7 to 12 years old, and slowly became the accompanying dancer of the Little Venus Art Troupe from a little girl with uncoordinated limbs, and then became the lead dancer.

At the age of 12, Shen Xi was selected to participate in the dance competition held by Jiangcheng Children's TV Station, and accidentally reached the finals from the preliminary round.

Shen Xi was very excited about this, and even more excited than Shen Xi were Shen Xuejian and Min Rou, although they were not interested in their daughter becoming a star at all, but their baby daughter entered the finals, how proud.

Xu Li was also very excited, and after the Shen family touched Shen Xi's face a few times, she rushed home as soon as she knew the news and said, "Lao Jiang, our daughter-in-law is going to participate in the competition!" ”

Jiang Changhuai was playing chess with Jiang Yan, at this time he couldn't play Jiang Yan, as soon as he heard this "good news", he immediately threw the chess pieces, and by the way, he waved his big hand, messed up the chessboard, and said: "Okay, let's go together!" ”

Xu Li found out that Jiang Yan was at home and coughed unnaturally.

Jiang Yan glanced at Jiang Changhuai and Xu Li lightly, put the chess pieces back one by one according to the position of Fang Cai, and said, "Go on." ”

Jiang Changhuai watched his son restore dozens of chess pieces, and his head cracked: "It didn't seem like this just now, where did I get picked up by you here?" ”

Jiang Yan said nonchalantly: "You lost seventeen and a half eyes just now, that's right." However, the final victory should be around 30 mesh. ”

Jiang Changhuai had no choice but to quickly change the topic: "Xixi will go to the competition tomorrow, let's go and cheer for Xixi together." ”

"No, no." Jiang Yan saw that Jiang Changhuai was going to play tricks to the end, and slowly put away the chess pieces again. It's not that she really doesn't want to go, but because Xu Li just used the word "daughter-in-law".

Xu Li sat down, glanced at Jiang Yan with disgust, and said, "Why are you like this?" The last time you had such a boring race, the creek was gone, and your game lasted for hours at a time. The creek game is only fifteen minutes, and you don't even watch it. ”

Jiang Yan's slender fingers flicked the chess piece, and said lightly: "I'm not her." Then he went upstairs with a calm face, leaving Jiang Changhuai and Xu Li looking at each other.

Xu Li looked puzzled: "Will this child's rebellious period come too soon?" ”

Jiang Changhuai said: "Our son seems to be different from other children since he was a child...... It's not a day or two......"

Jiang Yan walked upstairs and lit the lamp, wanting to find a book to read, but as soon as he sat at the desk, he saw the opposite window, the pink curtains were opened, and the warm yellow light poured out, and Shen Xi was walking around the room alone.

Shen Xi Shen Xi, how can it be Shen Xi everywhere.

Since the cherry blossom rain that year, Jiang Yan has been looking forward to the girl in the cherry blossom rain every year.

His original idea should not be like this, and what is even more terrifying is that he found that even if Shen Xi didn't follow him, the whole world would be Shen Xi.

His friends would talk to him about Shen Xi, some said she was cute, some joked that Shen Xi was not raised by your family, his parents would talk about Shen Xi at the dinner table, and even the teacher would tell him that Shen Xi's math grades had dropped a little bit recently, and you had to help her.

This ubiquitous feeling made Jiang Yan upset, so upset that he would still look at the opposite window when playing chess.

Jiang Yan lay on the bed and exhaled twice, ran to the small park in the villa area, and sat on the stone chair in a daze.

It didn't take long to see Shen Xi running out in a very thin little skirt, sitting on the swing and swaying.

Shen Xi was obviously also in a daze, and she didn't even notice that Jiang Yan was sitting near her.

Jiang Yan originally wanted to wait for Shen Xi to leave before he left, but he didn't expect her to stay for half an hour. The moonlight was very gentle, and it was softly reflected on the little girl's body, she lowered her head to reveal a large white neck, and Jiang Yan coughed unconsciously.

Shen Xi was startled, and when he turned around and saw that it was him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately changed a smile on his face: "Xiao Jiang, why are you here." ”

Jiang Yan replied with a cold expression: "Why are you here alone at night." ”

Shen Xi held his face and said, "People are very nervous." Be alone. ”

This is a new move she learned in the comics she watched recently, whenever the heroine is going to participate in an important competition, she always has to come out and be quiet, but she doesn't actually know who Jingjing is.

"Well, come on." Jiang Yan deserved to be a little perfunctory.

Shen Xi bent his eyes and smiled, his eyes were full of small smiles: "Okay, okay, I'll do my best, but Brother Xiaojiang, you really won't come to see tomorrow." You've never seen me dance, and if you did, I'd be better off. ”

Jiang Yan turned his face a little awkwardly, he had seen her dance, many times, in order to avoid continuing to look like this in the future, Jiang Yan still replied quite resolutely: "I can't go, I want to go to Master Qu." ”

He lied.

Shen Xi hung his head a little regretfully, but soon smiled again: "It's the same." My mother said Brother Xiaojiang, you are now participating in national competitions, and I am only participating in this kind of small competition. ”

Jiang Yan wanted to say something more, but Shen Xi had already begun to say to himself: "Xiao Jiang, you also participated in the math competition, and what kind of science competition is it, all of them are national, Brother Xiao Jiang, why are you so powerful." ”

Jiang Yan was afraid that she would spread out again, so she had to say, "Let's go, it's late." ”

"Hmm." Shen Xi smiled and stepped on the two fallen leaves on the ground before walking back.

She walked in front, Jiang Yan walked behind, the wind blew slightly at night, Jiang Yan always felt that Shen Xi, who was jumping in front of him, was a little thin, and he pulled down the zipper of his sportswear, and felt a little inappropriate.

In a short period of time, Jiang Yan was behind Shen Xi, taking off his coat and wearing a coat and tossing several times, and when the word "Shen Xi" finally shouted, Shen Xi had already arrived home.

Shen Xi turned his head and greeted him in a happy voice: "Brother Xiao Jiang, goodbye." ”

Her voice was very crisp, and when Jiang Yan went home, Xu Li stood in the corridor and said, "Tut, it turned out that I went on a date." ”

Jiang Yan frowned, and some annoyance was inexplicably added to his heart.

This annoyance lasted until the next morning, Xu Li and Jiang Changhuai urged Jiang Yan several times, but he still practiced chess in the study alone without moving, and finally Xu Li and Jiang Changhuai left in a huff.

Jiang Yan had a chess piece in his hand, and he couldn't play it for a long time, Jiang Changhuai may not have seen it, he himself knew that he played this game of chess very badly.

Time passed minute by minute, and at half past nine, Jiang Yan finally pushed off the game of chess and rushed out with his coat. At that time, he didn't have much pocket money, so he ran from Jinjiang Huating to the bus stop, and waited for a long time before squeezing into the No. 20 bus to the Grand Theater.

Jiang Yan has never taken a bus much, and Jiang Changhuai is the first group of people in Jiangcheng to have their own cars.

Before that, Jiang Yan only occasionally wanted to go to the bookstore by himself, and only took the bus.

During the rush hour, the bus was jammed for a long time, and it took Jiang Yan more than an hour to arrive at the Grand Theater, and he saw parents leading their children out of the Grand Theater one after another.

It's over.

There was a poster posted at the door of the Grand Theater, and the little girl in ballet clothes was bending down gracefully, her back was a little like Shen Xi, Jiang Yan looked at it for a while, and still went back silently.

It took him more time to get home, and when he got home, he thought Xu Li would ask him where he went, but Xu Li just sat in the living room and sighed.

Xu Li said: "Xixi caught a cold this morning, dizziness and fell on the stage, and the ligament was strained, and he is still in the hospital." ”

Jiang Yan's eardrum seemed to be suddenly covered, and he didn't hear what Xu Li said too clearly, to the effect that Shen Xi would not be able to dance anymore in the future, the poor little girl had practiced for so many years, and she also had talent.

Jiang Yan suddenly wondered if he had put on that coat for Shen Xi last night, she wouldn't have caught a cold. If he asked Shen Xi not to insist, wouldn't she be hurt now? If he had gone to see her, wouldn't she have behaved better, as she herself had said?

When Jiang Yan went to the hospital to see Shen Xi, Shen Xi was already smiling and eating chocolate cake like a nobody. Seeing that he also dug a small spoonful, he handed it to him: "Brother Xiaojiang, do you want to eat, eat it well." His voice was a little hoarse, and Shen Xi quickly withdrew his hand with a red face, "Ah, I have a cold, it will be contagious." ”

Jiang Yan's heart was suddenly pinched.

Before that, he didn't seem to have any feelings for the world, but at that time, he really felt the pain, and his voice was so soft that he opened his mouth: "Will your leg still hurt?" ”

Shen Xi nodded, shook his head again, and always had a small smile in his eyes: "Brother Xiao Jiang, if you come to see me, will Master Qu blame you?" ”

Jiang Yan lowered his head and whispered, "Xiaoxi......"

There were a lot of people who came to see Shen Xi, and after one another, Jiang Yan didn't say what he wanted to say, but Shen Xi said a lot, all of which were answering the guests' questions, and he was always happy: "It's just that I'm too nervous, I haven't slept all night with a cold, and I fainted." I don't want to dance anyway. Hee-hee, I'm going to learn Go from Brother Xiaojiang in the future. ”

"I'm tired of dancing, so I don't have to press my legs in the future. I also said that it was almost the same as when I was thirteen years old. ”

"Well, in the future, I will also take the Jiangcheng Wai Chinese Middle School. I Ma Ma said that Brother Xiao Jiang can definitely go to Foreign Chinese Middle School, and then go to P ......"

Jiang Yan blushed slightly when he heard this, he probably ran away early, but he didn't know if it was an apology to Shen Xi, he had been sitting next to Shen Xi, feeding Shen Xi chocolate cake one bite at a time.

Shen Xi spoke openly, but when he swallowed the first bite of the small cake, his ears were also a little hot, and he complained softly: "People only have injured their legs, not their hands." ”

Jiang Yan glanced at her.

Shen Xi rubbed his shoulders and hummed, gasped, ate all the small cakes, and rubbed his stomach: "Huh." I eat so much, and I can't dance in the future, I'm definitely going to gain weight. ”

Jiang Yan put down the empty cake bowl and finally asked, "Shen Xi, don't you really want to dance?" ”

Shen Xi glanced at Jiang Yan stunned, in the past few years, he had rarely spoken to her in such a voice, the afternoon sun was warm, and the young man was sitting in the sun, his eyes glowing with a gentle light.

Shen Xi's eyes were sour, and tears fell......

Jiang Yan patted her on the back, Shen Xi leaned down, cried faintly, and then cried more and more loudly: "Brother Xiao Jiang, what should I do, my leg really hurts, the doctor said that it will be like this for a long time in the future, you can't stand for too long, you can't sit for too long, it doesn't seem to be better...... It seems like I've only learned to dance over the years. ”

"If I don't have dance expertise, I won't be able to get into Jiangcheng Wai Chinese Middle School, and I won't be able to go to the same school as you......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

Shen Xi laughed nonchalantly for a whole day, and at that time, in front of Jiang Yan, he finally cried.

At the end, he also said: "Woo woo, Xiao Jiang, I still have to eat chocolate." ”
