After the leisurely days of the New Year passed, Ning Chaoxi began to get busy again, in addition to the winter vacation homework assigned by the teacher, Ning's mother raised her cram school from one class a week to three classes a week, after the seventh day of junior high school, she was going to class, remembering that she had to go to cram school three times a week before the start of school, Ning Chaoxi was desperate.

But there is no way, Ning Mu's words are holy decrees, she can only choose to obey, if she dares to resist, she will be 'beaten to death with a stick'.

Three classes a week, two of which were arranged in the afternoon, the weather after the New Year was still cold, Ning Chaoxi went to class on the first day wrapped a thick fleece jacket, wrapped a warm scarf, and wore the newly bought boots for the New Year, and went out fully armed.

The boots were newly bought by Ning's father for her before the New Year, burgundy, with a little design folds on the leather boots, and a silver chain hanging on the side, which looks a little mature and a little cute, there is no chance to go out during the New Year, most of the time others come to the house as guests, this is the first time Ning Chaoxi wears these boots, but she regretted it not long after she walked out of the community door.

The design of this pair of boots has a height of two or three centimeters in the heel, and the sole plate is hard, so it's okay to walk only a short distance, but Ning Chaoxi felt a little pain in her heel when she walked away, and when she walked to the door of the training institution, she felt that her feet and knees were going to be wasted.

Father Ning probably also took a fancy to the beauty of these boots, but he didn't expect it to be so uncomfortable to wear, if Ning Chaoxi hadn't been in the way of public, he really wanted to take off his shoes and rub his feet.

Because of the pain in the soles of her feet, Ning Chaoxi didn't listen to this class much, she just wanted to go home quickly after class, she went out of the training institution, wore foot-grinding boots and didn't want to walk anymore, so she went to the nearby bus stop to wait for the bus, but after she got out of class, it happened to be the rush hour, not only at the station, but also on the bus.

Ning Chaoxi got into a relatively empty car, and after swiping the card, she stood by the back door, thinking that she would only be two stops away, and soon got out of the car.

There was also a big fat man with a travel bag standing next to her, two as wide as Ning Chaoxi, who was looking down and playing with his mobile phone, maybe it was inconvenient to type with one hand, he looked at the vehicle driving smoothly, and let go of the other hand holding the handrail.

As a result, the unexpected happened.

There were pedestrians passing on the sidewalk in front, the driver of the bus suddenly braked urgently, an unexpected situation, Ning Chaoxi's body leaned forward, and the fat man next to her also fell to her, the whole person hit her body, and her foot stepped on the boots on Ning Chaoxi's feet out of control in order to find a balance point, and crushed it, she felt that her bones were about to break.

After the fat man stood firm, he hurriedly apologized to her, and said 'I'm sorry' vigorously, Ning Chaoxi endured the pain and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, thinking that it was really unlucky.

But the unfortunate thing is not only this, they all say that the disaster is not a single line, Ning Chaoxi got out of the car and didn't notice that there was a pit in front of her, she stepped on the foot that was so painful that she couldn't do it, and the heel of the boot sank, she hurriedly pulled her foot out, and as a result, she heard a 'pop', and the heel of the boot was torn.

Ning Chaoxi heard his heart 'click', and it was also broken, although these shoes were uncomfortable to wear, but the price of Ning's father didn't seem to be cheap when he bought them.

Her feet hurt so much that she couldn't walk, Ning Chaoxi simply dragged her legs and sat down on the chair at the bus stop, resting for a while, her hand beat her legs, looked at the broken heels, and thought about how to go back.

A bus was parked in front of her, the back door opened, the crowded carriage was bustling, many passengers got off the bus, Ning Chaoxi lowered her head and beat her legs, and heard someone calling her.

"Ning Chaoxi."

Her eyes were covered with a dark shadow, and when she looked up, she saw a long, straight figure standing in front of her in the dim sky, with a clear face against the light.

Ning Chaoxi saw the person coming clearly, and two clusters of light suddenly lit up under his eyes: "Chen Xun? ”

As soon as Chen Xun lowered his head, he saw her boots in a miserable condition: "What's wrong?" He squatted down as he spoke, his handsome eyebrows furrowed.

Ning Chaoxi told him all the unfortunate things that happened on the bus just now and the bad luck he encountered after getting off the bus: "Then it became like this." ”

"Does it hurt?"

Knowing that he was asking about his feet, Ning Chaoxi pursed his lips and nodded: "It hurts, I think it should be a sprain, and I will rub it with some medicinal wine when I go back." ”

"Can you go?" Chen Xun raised his eyes to look at her.

"It should be." Ning Chaoxi was not sure, but soon she said again: "It's okay, this place is not far from my house, I'll go back after a while, it's these shoes......"

Although he knew that his father would feel more sorry for her than his shoes, but his mind was ruined like this, Ning Chaoxi felt a little unhappy when he thought about it.

"Let's go." Chen Xun glanced at her shoes, stood up straight and said to her.

"Ah, where are you going?" Ning Chaoxi didn't react.

"Fix your shoes." Chen Xun told her.

Ning Chaoxi got up from his chair: "Do you know where you can repair shoes?" ”

"Yes."

Hearing him say this, Ning Chaoxi immediately followed him, she dragged her feet and limped very slowly, Chen Xun followed her, originally wanted to help her, but was stopped by Ning Chaoxi: "It's okay, don't help me, I can walk by myself." ”

Chen Xun looked at the increasingly heavy sky, pressed Ning Chaoxi's shoulder, squatted in front of her in her puzzled gaze, and said concisely: "Come up." ”

Ning Chaoxi was stunned for a moment: "You want to carry me?" She looked around in embarrassment: "Chen Xun, this is not good." ”

"Nothing bad." Chen Xun saw that she hadn't moved for a long time, wrinkles appeared between his eyebrows, and he added: "You are walking too slowly, it is getting dark." ”

It turned out that she was disgusted that she walked slowly, Ning Chaoxi pursed her lips, and she said as she moved her steps: "Chen Xun, I can tell you, I am very heavy." ”

After she finished speaking, she lay on his back, and Chen Xun carried her up with a strong arm, and said with a smile: "Indeed." ”

Ning Chaoxi patted him on the shoulder dissatisfied, glared at the back of his head and said, "What is true, I mean the weight refers to the clothes, I wore a fleece jacket today, and I also wore a thick sweater and pants, these clothes can weigh several catties." ”

Listening to her gibberish, Chen Xun smiled and didn't speak.

After walking a short way forward, Ning Chaoxi poked his hard shoulder with his finger: "Chen Xun, I'm serious, if you're tired, let me down, I'm afraid that you won't be able to hold this road with me on your back." ”

Chen Xun turned his head slightly, his eyebrows were slightly sunken, and he said expressionlessly: "Just try it." ”

Caught off guard, he turned his head suddenly, Ning Chaoxi shrank his head back in a panic, and distanced himself from him, his warm breath still brushed her face a little, she shrunk her neck, her cheeks flushed, and let out a soft 'oh'.

Ning Chaoxi honestly lay on his back and didn't speak, she didn't expect Chen Xun to look very thin, but his back was so thick and strong, despite the layers of thick clothes, she could still feel Chen Xun's strength, which was a kind of tenacity unique to men.

Ning Chaoxi suddenly felt unprecedented steadfastness, and as he walked forward step by step, his steady footsteps seemed to have stepped into his heart, making her heart beat wildly.

Suddenly, I wanted to make the road a little longer.

Ning Chaoxi noticed that Chen Xun took her into Qianguan Village, and she didn't know where he was going to take her, she had been here many times before, but she didn't remember that there was a place to repair shoes.

She watched Chen Xun carry her on her back and walk on the crowded street, at the beginning of the lights, the surrounding street shops were lit up, white, orange and yellow mixed together, as well as the ethereal smoke and the shouting of the vendors, so that this street was instantly full of fireworks in the world.

Chen Xun carried her all the way forward, went in through the first corner, turned a corner and entered another street, passed by several shops, and finally stopped in front of a shoe store, next to a grocery store selling daily necessities, the boss was sitting on the bench and snorting melon seeds, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Chen Xun, spit out the melon seed shell in his mouth and greeted him: "Hey, the old Chen kid is back." ”

Chen Xun bowed slightly at him: "Uncle Li." ”

"Hey." The person he called Uncle Li answered, his eyes looked behind Chen Xun, and teased: "Yo, I also brought a beautiful little girl back." ”

Ning Chaoxi smiled politely at the man.

Uncle Li grinned, knocked a melon seed and said to Chen Xun, who was about to enter the shop: "Lao Chen went out to buy vegetables, and my sister-in-law is cooking in the back kitchen, let me pestle here to help look at the shop." ”

Chen Xun nodded.

He took Ning Chaoxi into the shoe shop, stood in the small storefront and looked around, sure enough, as Uncle Li said, he didn't see anyone, he moved a rattan chair for Ning Chaoxi to sit down, and took a pair of slippers for her from the top shelf, and put them in front of her: "Change the shoes." ”

"Okay." Ning Chaoxi obediently complied, she took off her boots, her feet that had been worn for a day were finally relaxed, she rubbed her sore heels, "Chen Xun, why didn't you see the boss here, is it okay for us to mess with other people's things like this?" ”

"It's okay, this is my dad's driver, he's out, and he'll be back in a while." Chen Xun bent down to clean up the small table full of things, turned his head and asked her, "Are you thirsty?" ”

Ning Chaoxi was still in the astonishment of the sentence 'This is my father's opening', he was stunned for a while, and when he heard a small 'ah', he was surprised: "This is your family's opening?" ”

"Yes." Chen Xun saw the surprise on her face and narrowed his eyes.

"I didn't expect that." Ning Chaoxi muttered softly, touched the tip of his nose, remembered something, and asked him, "What about uncle and aunt?" ”

"My dad is out, and my mom is cooking in the back kitchen." Chen Xun said to her, "You wait. ”

Ning Chaoxi walked to the iron staircase next to him after watching him say this, walked up the steps with long legs, and went up to the second floor without taking a few steps, she noticed that the handrails of the stairs were rusty, the paint was peeling, and the mottled rust was climbing on the surface of the stairs.

She looked up at the store of more than 30 square meters, the shelves in front of her were full of leather shoes, all kinds of men's leather shoes, mostly black and brown, she saw a piece of brown cardboard hanging on the shelf, on which five big characters were written with a marker pen - pure handmade leather shoes, and the shelves on each floor were marked with the price of leather shoes from low to high.

There were small hammers, heels and some leather fabrics on the small table that Chen Xun cleaned up just now, Ning Chaoxi thought, this inconspicuous small table must be a workbench.

Behind her is the corresponding women's leather shoes, which are more varied than the men's leather shoes opposite, and the workmanship and patterns are also more fine, and the ordinary incandescent light lines fall on these leather shoes, and the upper is shining with a smooth and delicate luster, which is not inferior to those noble leather shoes that are set off by the lights in the big shopping mall.

Ning Chaoxi looked at it, and a kind of reverence and admiration suddenly rose in his heart.
