Chapter 1, Strawberry Fields, I Am the Ark
Standing under the scorching sun, it has been almost half an hour since I accompanied the two female students to pick and bargain, and they still have no intention of taking out their wallets.
I rubbed my face with a cramp from laughter, rolled up my sleeves, and wiped the sweat from my hair.
It's the height of summer, and the sun is so brutal that it burns from morning to night, as if it wants to take revenge. The sky was blank and empty, so dry that there was no wind or a cloud, and it was so hot that there was no boundary or obstruction. That big fireball of scorching white burned almost the whole summer, so high, so unreasonable.
Lin Dong, who was hoarsely soliciting business in the stall next to him, suddenly packed up his clothes with his hands and feet, and shouted at me, "Xiaoyu, pack up your things and run, the chengguan is here." ”
I finally waited for the two of them to do business, but I encountered these plague gods again, so I had to hurriedly pack up my clothes, drag two bulky black plastic bags, and run away after Lin Dong and a few small stall owners with weak hands and feet.
It is said that "the tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs", but in this situation, how do I feel that Lin Dong and I are more like water dogs, and those well-dressed servants of the people are more like tigers out of the mountains.
"Hey, the money hasn't been given to you yet, do you want money?" I had already run far away before the two schoolgirls finally pulled out their wallets and shouted behind me with a few underwear.
"Grandma!" I couldn't help but curse in my heart. Wasted half a day without saying anything, didn't earn a penny, and lost a few clothes for no reason, this week's frying and roasting is in vain.
"Take the clothes, if you have a conscience, remember to take care of my business next time!"
I was angry and fled, and I turned around and replied, not paying attention, and I was running headlong into a man who walked out of the gate of Hai Duong No. 1 Middle School. His tall body only shook slightly, but I was knocked to the ground, and I fell to the ground with something with a person.
I held the back of my head with both hands, and I squatted on the ground with tears in pain, and I couldn't wake up for a long time.
It wasn't until I saw a few chengguan autumn winds sweeping away leaves from a distance that I endured the severe pain and raised my head, saying "I'm sorry" to the person who was hit, while half-kneeling on the ground and sweeping the underwear on the ground.
"Xiaoyu? Are you, Jiang Xiaoyu? A strange and hesitant inquiry in my ear, the voice was low and steady and slightly magnetic, the kind I liked.
At this moment, I couldn't help but look up in panic, "Do you want to be so sad, this kind of unlucky time just bumped into an acquaintance?" ”
To be honest, at this moment I'd rather meet a ghost than an acquaintance.
Fortunately, the person standing in front of me, the man I had just hit head-on, I didn't know. At first sight, I felt a vague impression of being in a trance, but there was no specific concept in my mind.
However, at this moment, with a frightened gaze that I did not know where to origin, he quickly glanced at the stockings, bras, and briefs scattered all over his feet, and then firmly locked me on the ground with tears in my eyes.
A young and beautiful young girl stood beside him. On such a ** day, one of her thin white and tender arms was still tightly wrapped around his arm, and the other hand held a small and delicate sun umbrella high, opening a shade for him at any time as his body moved.
She was so sticky and hot to him that she barely put a label on his head: This man is mine. I don't know if it's because I hurt the man she loves, or if my dignity at the moment is really detrimental to the city's appearance, the girl is looking at me with disdain.
The man did a ridiculous act at this moment that stunned everyone present.
The absurdity of this act was manifested in the fact that he suddenly waved his hand and pushed away the delicate sun umbrella that the beautiful girl held up in front of him, brutally broke the thin white and tender arm that was tightly wrapped around his arm, and without hesitation squatted down and held my hands tightly. And my hands, because they have been pulling around on the ground just now, are covered with dust and sweat.
The man's dark eyes were deep, squatting in front of me and holding my hands, with a slightly suppressed tremor between his lips and teeth, "Xiaoyu, does your head matter?" Do you have any other injuries? ”
This plot is really like the affectionate male protagonist written by Qiong Yao's mother and her old man, so his sudden move not only made the young and beautiful girl next to him widen his eyes in shock, but the people around him were shocked to open their eyes, and I was also shocked to open my eyes.
Although my eyes are still full of muddy tears from the pain, they must not be pure enough, clear enough, and not affectionate enough.
"...... you? You are......? Are you sure, we know each other? "I've always been articulate, but now I'm stammering.
I hurriedly pulled my hand out of his palm and quickly wiped the remaining tears from the corners of my eyes, so that I could see the warm and affectionate male protagonist in front of me more clearly.
For the past 28 years, I have always thought that I had nothing else in my life but a great memory. It's been ten years since I graduated from high school, and I can still memorize it without stumbling and under the supervision of Yang Shuai.
His warm and concerned tone, such a frightened and pitying gaze, clearly proved that he knew me, and it seemed that the relationship was still very unusual. He was able to call my name by name and surname accurately, which also proves that he definitely did not recognize the wrong person and express the wrong feelings.
But until this time, I still couldn't remember what this person's name was, and who was sacred.
I'm pretty sure that in the last twenty-eight years, I've never lost a single precious memory of any part of my life because of a car accident or any accident.
In the past 28 years, except for the time when I was 18 years old because I failed the college entrance examination, I had a shallow period of sorrow, and I secretly thought that I had always lived a life of peace of mind, contentment and happiness.
But in the garden of memories that I thought I was content and happy with, this man seemed to be a weed flying from the sky, and I did not recall any such person among my relatives, friends, or acquaintances.
And I am also convinced that even if he really knew me, he would not dare to believe it easily, the dark, thin and embarrassed woman in front of him, with tears on her face and dust, is Jiang Xiaoyu who had skin like snow, eyes like water, and elegant clothes two months ago.
"Xiaoyu, tell me first, how is the head? Are there any other injuries on your body? I was still confused, but he gently picked my head and leaned over to check on my injuries.
"Xiaoyu, why don't you run quickly, the chengguan is coming." I was in a daze and let the gentle man fumble on my head, Lin Dong ran back, picked up my stockings, bra and pants scattered all over the ground with his hands and feet, and reached out to pull me.
The man domineeringly blocked Lin Dong's hand and held my arm, "Xiaoyu, you have to go to the hospital with me to see your injuries first." ”
"Hehe, don't worry, I'm not so unruly. It's just, I'm really embarrassed, I ......" I smiled slightly, Yang Hao said that when I smiled slightly, the small dimples on my face were particularly charming and beautiful.
This cold and unforgiving summer, heaven and earth are unkind, and I haven't smiled so charmingly in a long time. Today, this man's sudden warmth and intimacy, like a cool breeze, slowly blew open my indifferent heart.
Hearing me say this, he raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly. I don't know if it was because I had a lot of dust and sweat on my face when I wiped my tears, or if the dimples on my face were really beautiful and charming when I smiled slightly, this man pulled me to his side and gently wiped and wiped on both sides of my face.
His action made me even more thrilled, puzzled and moved, low eyebrows and pleasing eyes stupidly stood in front of him stupidly enjoying this rare moment of warmth, after divorcing Yang Hao, I have not enjoyed such an ambiguous warmth of a man so close for a long time.
The man leaned over and whispered softly in my ear, "Xiaoyu, strawberry farm, I'm the ark." ”
A bitter cold wind swept through my heart, and I suddenly raised my head, and my eyes were nailed to the warm man in front of me like a torch.
Yes, I remembered. This person, I did vaguely meet once, that day in the strawberry field, in that scuffle.
