Lin Meili and Qiao Ran still heard the sound of basketball "banging" on the ground in their ears, and the sound hit the bottom of the center in the silent night. [No pop-ups. 】

After a long time, Qiao Ran was willing to slightly widen the distance between the two lips, giving Lin Meili a chance to breathe fresh air......

"Inferior! If I can't win, I'll want to play tricks. Lin Meili tried to break free from between Qiao Ran's arms, but she only poked her head out, and was hugged back into Qiao Ran's arms.

Her banter did not bring Qiao Ran's blush, on the contrary, his extremely serious eyes fixed on Lin Meimei's face, looking at her fixedly, as if he wanted to ask, but he was a little difficult to speak.

"You're asking me who taught me how to play basketball, right?"

didn't expect Lin Meili to be able to see through his mind at a glance, just right, he didn't have to be "careful" to guess who the other party was, and he didn't have to have jealousy in his heart.

For Lin Meili's past life, he was not lucky to participate, Qiao Ran was already jealous in his heart, especially now, he was stunned to find that he still had a lot of things he didn't know about Lin Meili, and there was invisibly panic and panic condensed in Qiao Ran's body, and he couldn't wait to dissect Lin Meili and study it again from beginning to end......

"You haven't seen my mother, have you? It seems like I rarely mention her in front of you. ”

Suddenly, Lin Meili mentioned her mother, and there were wisps of sentimentality in her eyes.

Could it be that the basketball thing has something to do with her mother? This question surprised Qiao Ran, and he was silent, waiting for Lin Meimei's explanation.

"When I was very young, my mother became seriously ill and died young. There are very few memories of her that stand out in my mind, and I only vaguely remember that she once took me to the basketball court, and my mother was very tall and loved basketball. However, in the eyes of my grandmother, the daughter of a famous family must not rebel and do something that is inconsistent with her identity, no matter how much my mother loves basketball, my grandmother still ruthlessly cut off her hobby. ”

"And my mother is a more rebellious person, not only did she not obey her grandmother's orders in her hobbies, but even her marriage, she resolutely broke away from the Huo family, dissolved the wealthy marriage arranged by her grandmother for her, and her father, who had nothing and was an orphan, went to the United States to fight and live."

When she said this, Lin Meili couldn't help but admire her mother's courage.

She can leave her life without looking back, and leave the country with the man she loves......

Maybe her mother's behavior seems to be very free and resolute on the surface, but in fact, now Lin Meili can deeply feel the struggle and discomfort of her mother's decision, she is not really able to leave everything here and ignore it.

Otherwise, her mother would not have taken her back when she was still very young, and when she returned to China, she did not dare to go home, wandering around the gymnasium, touching the basketball she loved but had to give up later.

"When my mother brought me here, I couldn't read the sadness in her eyes because I was too young, but I knew that she had been here for a long time. I asked her why she wanted to come here, and she smiled and said that this was where she and her dad first met. ”

There was loss and joy in the mother's eyes......

The loss is that she has no family since then, but fortunately she has a man who loves her and spoils her and is loyal to her.

Qiao Ran was still silent, but sat up straight and hugged Lin Meili again, "Some things have passed, don't worry about it anymore, maybe my mother-in-law just wants to relive the time with my father-in-law." ”

How he hoped that Lin Meili could live a simpler and easier life, without having to bear so much pain and past on her body.

Lin Meili has never mentioned her mother in front of him, and Qiao Ran can also guess that this is the same untouchable shadow in her life......

"My mother-in-law in heaven will be very happy to see you play basketball very well." Qiao Ran finally understood that the reason why Lin Meili had good basketball skills was because of her mother. In this seemingly simple way, I miss her.

"Unfortunately, I couldn't fulfill her unfulfilled wishes. Although he was able to throw a few balls in, he was not patient. ”

Occasionally, Lin Meili can't help but imagine that if she could be sensible at that time, she might join the basketball team, maybe she could fulfill her mother's unfulfilled wish, and maybe her fate would be very different......

I won't know Jiang Chengyi, I won't know Qiao Ran, and I won't have the happiness I have with Qiao Ran today.

"I've heard that daughters can easily follow in their mother's footsteps...... I don't know if it's true or not, but one thing I know for sure: I'm just as lucky as my mother to have met someone who loves me, spoils me, and pities me. ”

Lin Meili wrapped her arms around Qiao Ran's waist, felt Qiao Ran's breath between breaths, and stared at Qiao Ran very intently, as if she could see from her eyes that Qiao Ran was her heaven and her everything.

After listening to Lin Meili's words, Qiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most worried about was that Lin Meili would be cranky, pessimistic, and self-abandoning......

"I said that before you want to praise me, can you not be so long, just say that I am good, I have to tremble to guess your mind, which makes people panic."

While Qiao Ran was complaining a lot, his heart was also beautiful.

Lin Meili wrinkled her nose, "Arrogant guy, ...... in the future How dare I praise you? ”

patted the snowflakes on his body, Lin Meili held his hand, "No need to compare, you cheated and lost this game, and you have to listen to me next." ”

Lin Meili looked around the stadium for a week, although this venue was completely different from the scene when her mother brought her here, but she seemed to see her mother's smile in the middle of the court, she was smiling, she was relieved.

Even though she can't see her grandmother forgiving her and forgiving her father in her life, Lin Meili believes that her mother can definitely see her grandmother's understanding and relief of her and her father's feelings......

Qiao Ran was continued to be led by Lin Meili, "It's the middle of the night, where are you going?" ”

If her energy is really strong, they can go back together to consume it, why bother three watches in the middle of the night and still hang outside.

"You'll know when you go, don't forget, you have to listen to me tonight."

Although she was on the court just now, for a moment, Lin Meimei's thoughts were immersed in the pain of the past and she couldn't pull out, but at this moment, her voice improved significantly, and her mood recovered.

"Can you not go?"

"No way!" Lin Meili couldn't tolerate him bargaining, and after going around the court, she went straight to the back door of the court, which was a large open space.

Lin Meili followed her childhood memories and searched for that majestic and huge tree, with dense branches and leaves.

Around the corner, the tree is still there.

There are colorful light strips hanging on the branches of the big tree, just like a Christmas tree, but it is taller than the Christmas tree, and the towering "majestic posture" of the big tree is like a hot-blooded soldier guarding the frontier, carrying too many responsibilities and burdens on his shoulders.

Qiao Ran's gaze fell on the big tree for a long, long time, "What's the difference?" ”

Otherwise, Lin Meili wouldn't let him come here.

However, Qiao Ran didn't expect that it looked like a very ordinary court, but there was an ancient tree behind the court, and judging from the shape of the tree, it had definitely grown here for several years.

"Hmm." Lin Meili nodded without denial.

Suddenly, she folded her hands and closed her eyes, thinking reverently about what she was praying for.

"This is a wishing tree, as long as you make a wish on the ancient tree, your wish will come true."

Even though Lin Meili was so sure when she said this, Qiao Ran was suspicious, he didn't believe that the big tree could help people achieve their wishes.

If this is the case, then he will definitely make a lot of wishes, of course, all his wishes must be related to Lin Meili......

Although Qiao Ran didn't say that she didn't believe her, Lin Meili could see Qiao Ran's half-belief at a glance, "When I was a child, the wish I made here has come true. ”

She added, trying to convince Qiao Ran.

"What is your wish?" Qiao Ran was quite curious about what her wish was.

Lin Meili just smiled and continued to close her eyes and make a sincere wish......

When she was a child, her mother made a wish for her, as if everything had been arranged in the dark, and her mother seemed to be able to predict that she was about to leave, and her wish was to hope that she could meet a good person who loved her and took care of her for the rest of her life like her father.

Now, Qiao Ran is this person, he is even more dedicated than his father, more reliable, and more worthy of entrusting for life.

Tonight, Lin Meili was more like she was being dragged by a force, and she had to bring Qiao Ran here.

"Let's make a wish first." Lin Meili took Qiao Ran's hand and put them together.

Men are usually not too superstitious, Qiao Ran didn't have Lin Meili so enthusiastic, he was convinced, and his eyes searched back and forth between Lin Meili and the big tree.

"Big fool, sincerity is spiritual, as long as you make a wish seriously and work hard towards this wish, you will definitely get what you want."

And Lin Meimei's wish is, of course, inseparable from Qiao Ran......

It was his appearance that gave her life hope, then, Lin Meili sincerely begged no one to take Qiao Ran away from her, let him stay by her side forever, and create the simplest, but happiest life with her.

Qiao Ran half-opened her starry eyes, and glanced at Lin Meimei's meticulousness, her lips were slightly activated, and she was obviously praying very sincerely.

Qiao Ran also seems to be infected by her, whether it works or not, his only wish is that Lin Meili can live a happy life, and he is the only one who can give her happiness in the future......

This night, Lin Meimei's thoughts spread, she raised her eyes and looked at the dark blue sky, thinking of Father Lin, Mother Lin, and Jiang Chengyi, if they knew that she was happy, they would happily bless her......
