Chapter 40: Except for Him
in the bedroom.
Shen Qingzhou clutched the red rope in his hand tightly, his brows furrowed deeply, and there seemed to be annoyance in his eyes.
How did it fall off?
He wore it for more than ten years, and it never came off on its own.
……
Wait for Shen Qingzhou to come out after taking a bath.
She was nowhere to be seen on the couch.
When I looked around, I saw the thin figure standing on the balcony.
He walked over.
Jiang Qing seemed to feel something, and looked back at him, his good-looking eyes were crooked, as if he was smiling at him.
Shen Qingzhou vaguely felt that something was different.
But I couldn't say it for a while.
She said to him, "Come and see." ”
Shen Qingzhou walked over, and through the direction she was looking, she saw two children playing with small fireworks in the courtyard of the villa next door.
I can vaguely hear the squeaky laughter of children, so unhappy.
He looked sideways at her in confusion.
Why is he watching this?
Jiang Qing leaned forward, folded his hands on the railing, and said in a faint voice, "This is the childhood that a child should have." ”
He didn't answer.
Jiang Qing tilted her head slightly, and the light in the room was reflected in her black and white eyes, as if a star had fallen in it.
She asked, "Do you have fireworks here?" ”
Of course not.
There can't be either.
Shen Qingzhou said, "If you want it, I can have someone send it over." ”
Jiang Qing thought for a moment and shook his head, "Forget it." ”
During the Chinese New Year, everyone else is reuniting with their families.
Except for him.
Shen Qingzhou thought that she wanted to go home, her dark eyes sank slightly, and she said, "If you want to go home, I'll send you." ”
Jiang Qing shook his head again, "No." ”
Shen Qingzhou didn't ask her why she didn't want to go home, everyone had their own story.
In silence.
Suddenly, the sound of fireworks sounded not far away, and a ball of fire trees and silver flowers exploded in the night sky, bright and beautiful.
Bunch after bunch, clumping and blooming.
The darkness of the night was instantly illuminated.
"Hey." There was a soft call beside him.
Shen Qingzhou turned his head and met her sparkling eyes.
She was laughing, leaning against the railing with one chin in one hand, looking sideways at him.
The hooked lips were hidden in the black mask, and he said to him in a lazy tone: "Happy New Year." ”
Shen Qingzhou looked at her, and after a while, he replied.
"Happy New Year."
The next day.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, someone was setting off firecrackers early in the morning.
Firecrackers are forbidden in the urban area of the imperial capital, but this is the suburbs.
Jiang Qing didn't sleep deeply in an unfamiliar environment, and was easily woken up.
She got up and walked to the balcony to look at the view.
It seemed to have snowed heavily late last night, and the ground was covered with a layer of snow.
Ruixue celebrates the harvest year.
It looks like it's going to be a good year.
The children in the villa next door ran out again, laughing and laughing, and holding a few red and festive red envelopes in their little hands.
I don't know what to think, but the smile in her eyes grows.
Jiang Qing poked his head out and shouted to the child, "Hey, little friend......"
I don't know how long it took.
Shen Qingzhou woke up and went downstairs in a gray nightgown.
There was no one in the living room.
A smell of food brought him to the dining room.
I saw that on the dining table, there were two or three simple breakfasts, which did not look like they had been bought, and there was no place to sell such things in the vicinity.
What did she do?
Shen Qingzhou was a little surprised, although he hadn't seen her face, she didn't look like a person who could cook.
I was wondering if she was gone.
I noticed that there was a small red thing next to the breakfast.
He picked it up and saw that it was a red envelope.
Shen Qingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but smile.
