Chapter 10: A Long Dream
"Sleepless nights are always a bit long
The deep darkness was filled with a deep sadness
Sometimes I really want to be someone else's child
There are empathetic ones
It's more like a friend-like parent
There is always hot tea
It's like a haven home
Every time I come back after a long absence
A tired heart can be completely relaxed
Quietly enjoying the warmth of home"
It's almost two o'clock in the morning, and even the girl who often stays up late to read novels has already slept, but Chen Xiaodi still doesn't feel the slightest sleepiness.
After sending the news and turned off the phone, Chen Xiaodi closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep, but he remembered the unhappiness between him and Chen's mother yesterday, and unconsciously thought about it.
Fragments of memories poured out of the depths of my mind, pieced together piecemeal and evoked a long memory.
Chen Xiaodi has been closer to Chen's mother since she was a child, and she always had to stick to her mother when she was a child, and then she gradually grew up, although she didn't always follow her mother like before, but the relationship between mother and daughter is still very good, and when Chen's father has nothing to do, she always stands on her mother's side.
I don't know when the mother and daughter are no longer so close, it's not that they have any secrets between each other, but they are unconsciously estranged and begin to have conflicts.
Thinking about it, the originally chaotic fragments became orderly, and Chen Xiaodi saw Chen's father, Chen's mother, and the Baiye family, and there were many people who were very familiar, but couldn't say who it was for a while.
The location looks like a mountain forest, with streams and exquisite cabins, but looking not far away, there are surrounding courtyard walls and cars parked in the courtyard, which is more like a small mountain village.
On the grass by the brook was a square cloth with many kinds of fruit and snacks, and on the other side of the courtyard, enclosed by a half-man marble fence, there were tables with baking sheets.
There were several tables of people sitting in the courtyard, and the table near the brook was filled with sumptuous ingredients, and there were two people sitting at the table, one busy putting things in the baking tray, and the other busy putting out the cooked ones and sending them to the people on the other side of the stream.
Chen Xiaodi felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, as if she was standing on this side of the stream, she could smell the tempting aroma of barbecue wafting from her side, she could hear the conversation of the people sitting around the stream, and she could also see the relaxed and happy smiles on their faces.
Chen Xiaodi also seemed to feel this pleasure, she wanted to approach them, but she couldn't move. She called out Shiraba's name, but he didn't seem to hear it, and didn't react.
Chen Xiaodi seems to have become an outsider, the people around her come and go, but she is not aware of her existence in the slightest, she is like an audience, watching the plot in front of her slowly advance.
I don't know how long it took, the people by the stream were finally ready to leave, and when they came to the corner, they smiled and waved goodbye to Chen Xiaodi, Chen Xiaodi wanted to chase it, but couldn't catch up.
At this moment, the crisp alarm went off, Chen Xiaodi took the mobile phone and pressed the alarm clock, and woke up in a daze.
It turned out to be a dream.
Chen Xiaodi didn't know when she fell asleep, how long she slept this night, she sat up and slowed down, and waited until she was awake before going to wash.
The whole day was groggy, and at the end of the last class, Chen Xiaodi felt as if he hadn't rested for several days and nights, very tired.
"Where? The meal has been served. ”
"At the door, right away."
Chen Xiaodi replied to the message and turned into a restaurant at the entrance of the school, and as soon as she entered, she saw Bai Ye sitting at the table in the corner of the wall and waved at her.
This scene is so familiar.
This restaurant is the size of two stores, and it serves authentic home-cooked food, which is not expensive, and it will be overcrowded every time the meal arrives, and if one of the two does not have a class in the last afternoon, they will come here early to take a seat.
"What's going on? Lethargy. ”
"Sleepy."
"Who made you not sleep in the middle of the night so emotionally, I got up early this morning to brush the news, and I only saw you on the screen."
"Upset."
Chen Xiaodi yawned a lot, and drank the soup that Bai Ye had cooled for her in advance.
This was originally a habit of Chen Xiaodi, if he encountered his favorite soup dish, he would cool a bowl of soup, especially when eating fish hot pot. But now Chen Xiaodi has a bad stomach, as long as he eats with Bai Ye, he will let her drink a bowl of soup before eating.
"My mother told me, I heard that this time, you and your aunt quarreled fiercely."
"Hmm."
"Didn't you let you talk to your aunt, why did you quarrel again?"
"I told her well, she yelled at me first, she said first that I didn't understand her and didn't listen to her, but did she listen to what I said?! She didn't believe me at all! ”
"How could it be, Auntie is just...... Speak more directly, don't take it too seriously. ”
"She also said that she was on my side, and she would talk to her every time!"
Chen Xiaodi ate a few bites of rice angrily, not wanting to eat it violently, and choked a little nauseous for a while. Seeing this, Bai Ye hurriedly handed her a glass of water.
"You always think about these things, and in the end, you're just adding to yourself, so why bother? Let the past pass, don't think about it. ”
After eating, the two of them walked to school together.
"By the way, tomorrow our school has a friendly basketball game with your school, do you want to come and watch?"
"I'm not interested, but if you play, I'll think about it."
"Really? So when the time comes, where are you going to cheer up? ”
"Needless to say, of course it's on our side!"
"Then I have to perform well, and I can't lose."
"It depends, there will be a lecture from our college tomorrow night, and I have only listened to it twice this semester."
"Well, then I'm going to train in a while, why don't you go and see it together?"
"Forget it, I have an assignment in organic chemistry today, and I want to go back to do my homework, and I'm really sleepy, so I'm going to rest early and make up for sleep."
"Okay then."
The next day was still full of classes, and the student union office issued a notice at noon, asking the members who did not have classes in the evening to go to Mo University to watch the basketball game and cheer for the school.
After class, the roommates hurriedly bought some food and rushed to the lecture hall, this lecture is also part of the course, each college arranges a limited number of sessions per semester, although the number of times required to be present is not too much, but each lecture has two colleges, only one classroom, and it is full of people who can't enter.
Chen Xiaodi went to the cafeteria to eat, and walked slowly to Mo University, when he arrived at the side of the sports field, the basketball players of Lin University had already warmed up on the sidelines, and the members of the student union had already arrived.
Half an hour before the start of the game, Chen Xiaodi and several officials in the department went to the supermarket next to the sports field to buy some desserts, and were about to call to ask where Bai Ye was, when several girls came over and passed by them.
