Chapter 23: Warm Your Hands

When the car arrived at the entrance of the Vino Theater, it was raining lightly and grayly.

The autumn rain is dripping, the weather is gradually getting cooler, the rain is knocking on the car window, and the light rain is like a soft and crisp melody, blending into the humid air.

Pedestrians on the street dodged and hid under the eaves of the side streets, admiring the picturesque scene of the rain, with a rustling drizzle of smoke enveloping the street.

Jiang Jinrui parked the car, took out an umbrella from the trunk of the car, came to the co-pilot door in advance, and intimately opened the co-pilot door for Zhong Yahan, holding an umbrella to shelter her from the rain.

She was gently helped out of the car, and then she quickly ducked under his umbrella and stood close to him.

With a gentle breeze, Zhong Yahan's goose-yellow chiffon dress swayed gently in the wind, her body was graceful, like a fairy in the rain, and her skirt danced in the breeze.

Her long, straight black hair, which was scattered over her shoulders, was blown by the wind, and had a flowing demeanor, as smooth as black brocade.

Jiang Jinrui walked slowly side by side with her, turned his head slightly sideways and saw her moving appearance, and an inexplicable feeling surged into his heart.

He smiled dotingly at her, and she also turned her head sideways to look at him and smiled, the two of them were like a pair of beautiful people, and they became a good couple.

There were unusually many people who came to watch the musical performance today, and the entire theater was full of couples, and Jiang Jinrui and Zhong Yahan looked a little embarrassed sitting in the middle.

When the stage play was about to start, Jiang Jinrui took out two bottles of water from his bag, skillfully opened one of the bottles, handed it to Zhong Yahan, and picked up the other bottle and drank it, and the two sat quietly waiting for the stage play to begin.

The lights in the theater suddenly dimmed, the curtain slowly opened, the lights hit the center of the stage, and the protagonists appeared in bright costumes.

The title of this stage play is "White Heads Are Inseparable".

It tells the story of a pair of campus lovers from school uniforms to wedding dresses and then white-headed to old, girls and boys are classmates, they are class cadres, at first they look at each other's various unpleasant eyes, but later they are deeply attracted to each other, the boy uses a hot pot to move the girl to the ground, and then the two began a sweet campus love.

Later, the two graduated, and the girl accompanied the boy to stay in the big city to endure hardships, and when the boy's career improved, he stuck to his original promise to marry her home and gave her an unforgettable wedding.

Later, when their child was born, the boy gave the girl the greatest sense of security and the warmest care, so that she would not be panicked because of the change of identity.

When the boy worked hard for his career, the girl also silently accompanied him, understanding and understanding his difficulty, and finally he succeeded in his career, and their life was getting better and better.

Later, their children got married, had their own lives, and they also retired, and traveled to many places together, enjoying the long-lost leisure time of the two.

When they were white, they were still by each other's side and never left each other.

The simple and warm plot was performed by the actors wonderfully, fascinatingly, and beautifully interpreted the confession that companionship is the most affectionate.

Zhong Yahan was fascinated by it, and her heart was moved, and one hand unconsciously pinched the bottle, but she forgot to tighten the cap just now.

One accidentally, she pinched the bottle so that the drink spilled, and the skirt was wet in a large piece, and she was startled and a little overwhelmed.

Jiang Jinrui quickly noticed her panic, quickly took out a tissue from his bag, and carefully wiped the water stains on her skirt, suddenly he accidentally touched her hand, felt a chill on her hand, and he looked at her with some concern.

After hesitating for a long time, he grabbed her hand nervously, covered her cold palms between his hands, and gently rubbed them to warm her palms.

She was startled by his sudden movements, and looked up at him in surprise, and then the warmth of her palms warmed her heart.

She involuntarily raised the corners of her mouth, and looked at his side face for a long time with a touching gaze.

The angular outline, the tall and heroic nose, the thin lips, the dark pupils, the eyebrows are obliquely hidden in a few strands of black hair under the sideburns, and the handsome side face is impeccable.

Zhong Yahan's heart was surging, like a calm lake shadow rippling with waves, there was an indescribable happiness in her heart, half moved, half joy, she looked at his silhouette and fell into a trance.

Jiang Jinrui felt her focused eyes and turned his head to look at her with doubts.

When she saw him suddenly turn his head, she was so frightened that she turned her head back to the stage, avoiding his eyes, pretending to watch the stage play seriously, and her heart was pounding again.

The corners of his mouth lifted up meaningfully, and suddenly he let go of a hand and changed positions with the one that was closer to hers, clasping his fingers tightly with hers.

She was once again frightened by the sudden movement of his hand, her eyes widened and she looked at the hand that was tightly clasped by him, a little overwhelmed, and she was reluctant to pull away, she was too shy to look at him again.

There was still a wonderful performance on the stage, Zhong Yahan had been nervous and didn't dare to move, but she had no intention of watching the performance on stage, at this moment she just wanted to carefully feel the temperature of his palm, like a sensor to convey the warmth to the tip of her heart.

Jiang Jinrui was also reluctant to let go of her hand, and kept holding it tightly, wishing that time would stop at this moment.

Her fingers are slender and beautiful, and the palm and back of her hand are thin and tender, making her very comfortable to hold.

He enjoyed this moment of peace and well-being, clasped his fingers with the person he liked, and quietly watched a touching stage play.

At the end of the stage play, the actors sincerely bowed to the curtain call, and the audience burst into warm applause.

Until the end of the show, Jiang Jinrui's hand had not let go, she wanted to withdraw her hand to join the public applause, but she was too shy to withdraw it from his palm without authorization.

Sensing her hesitation, he slowly let go of her hand, and she applauded the stage a little uncomfortably, but there was still his residual warmth in her palm, and she hoped that this residual warmth would recede later.

By the time I walked out of the theater, the rain had stopped, and the air was filled with a faint after-rain freshness.

It was not too late, Jiang Jinrui proposed to go for a walk by the river and then go back, and she readily agreed.

They came to the riverside path near the theater, and the night after the rain was somewhat quiet, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, only two or three people sparsely.

The wind exudes the refreshing fragrance of autumn, and the shore path stretches into the distance like a golden ribbon under the warm light of the street lamps.

In the distance, the viaduct was full of vehicles, like shooting stars, and the boats moved slowly, reflecting the glittering silhouette on the river.

Jiang Jinrui suddenly turned around as he walked, turned to Zhong Yahan and walked backwards, showing a gentle smile to her.

Zhong Yahan was in a good mood, quietly walked face-to-face with him, enjoyed the beautiful night, and occasionally paid attention to helping him see if there were any obstacles behind him.

He stepped backwards and paced on the riverbank path, suddenly chuckled, and said to Zhong Yahan: "I suddenly remembered the good times of our freshman year, and the beginning of the stage play just now made me full of memories of the old days. ”

Zhong Yahan didn't answer, smiling and listening quietly to his reminiscences of the past.

She suddenly remembered the days when she was injured during the freshman anniversary performance and was cared for by him.

At the school anniversary that year, all four of them were fortunate to participate in a stage play "Youth Chronicle", at that time Yin Huiyun played the heroine, she played the supporting actress, the plot needed, there was a section where she needed to jump from a slightly high place in order to save the heroine, and then perform a fall.

As a result, on the day of the school celebration performance, she acted very realistically, jumped over, accidentally jumped over, and fell off the stage directly, scaring everyone in the audience into panic.

Jiang Jinrui ran over in a hurry, picked her up and ran to the school infirmary as fast as possible, lying on the bed in the school infirmary, her legs hurt so much that she clenched her teeth, it was he who sat next to her and kept comforting her and encouraging her, and accompanying her through the most painful moment.

She broke her leg and was unable to move, so he stayed downstairs in the dormitory every day, riding a bicycle to take her to class, eat, and back to the dormitory.

During that time, he contracted her daily travel, she sat on the back of his bicycle, wrapped her arms around his waist, and gently pressed her head against his back, quietly feeling this youthful time.

He rode her bicycle through the tree-lined lanes of the school, where the trees cooled her and she listened to the chirping of cicadas and kingfishers, the most familiar melodies of summer.

Walking through the teaching building, I saw the students who were full of youth and vitality laughing and playing all the way, slowly holding books and walking into the teaching building.

Crossing the man-made lake in the school, students strolled leisurely along the shore of the lake, enjoying this wonderful quiet time.

Walk through the basketball court and watch groups of boys running fast on the court, dribbling the ball, throwing beautiful arcs, and sweating with youth.

The air was fresh, the sky was blue, and the time was warm.

What a happy and nostalgic time, and if it weren't for these wonderful pasts, how could he have kept her unforgettable for so many years?

She spent two-thirds of her freshman year with him, taking electives together, eating together, studying in the library together, chatting about all kinds of gossip and interesting things in the school together, and often acting as a high-wattage light bulb behind Liu Minfeng and Yin Huiyun, the campus couple, and the four were often inseparable at that time.

The green days of the past were particularly beautiful, and they often wanted to go back in time.

Fortunately, time is not old, and they are not scattered.

Now the four of them still live in the same city, fighting together and playing together, which is really a lucky thing.

The two walked slowly for more than an hour, Jiang Jinrui drove Zhong Yahan back to the apartment, and when Zhong Yahan got out of the car, he also followed from the driver's seat.

He stood in front of her, smiled mysteriously, and invited her again: "In a few nights, there is a carnival at the Dream Star, and someone else gave me two tickets, let's go together." ”

"Okay, see you then." She bowed her head and smiled, and agreed without hesitation.

"Come in, good night." He said to her tenderly and dotingly.

"Mmmm, be careful on the way back, good night." She waved at him and glanced back at him as she walked into the lobby.

He smiled and waved at her, watching her walk into the apartment lobby before slowly driving away.

After a while, she sneaked out of the lobby again, and followed the car with reluctant eyes until it disappeared from her sight.
