Chapter 61: Childhood Promises

"If life is only as it is the first time I saw something, the autumn wind is sad and paints a fan

Waiting for idle change, but the old people's hearts are changeable, but the old people's hearts are changeable"

An Xin curled up his legs and sat on the windowsill, holding a book of Nalan words in his hand, looking at the charming scenery in the distance, and muttered

Nalan Rongruo is her favorite lyricist, there is no son, the life of a son is born for love, and he dies for love, the world sneers at him for being an amorous species, but a few people know Nalan's heart

Anxin sighed softly, the book in his hand was taken away, Anxin raised his misty eyes, and called lazily: "Mom"

Hao Lei closed the book and shook her head gently: "You have read this Nalan Ci hundreds of times, and you like it so much, no wonder your father said that you have a girl's heart, I still don't believe it, it seems that my daughter is really a young woman of literature and art."

"Wrong, your daughter is a combination of a female man and a literary woman, wild on the outside and soft on the inside," An An shook his head and smiled mischievously

Hao Lei gently nodded her head "poor mouth"

Hao Lei put the book on the bookshelf and said: "Nalan Xingde's words are too sad, you should not see it."

"Mom, do you say that Nalan Rongruo is an amorous or an infatuated species?" asked Anxin

"Amorous people must have infatuation, it depends on who he is like, for his wife Lu, he is quite infatuated, but for his first love Nara Huier and his later confidante Shen Wan, he also planted a love root, and he sincerely said that he was an amorous species, and it was not considered that he had wronged him"

Anxin nodded: "Compared with his wife Lu's affection, I am more embarrassed that his love with his first love Nara Huier is obviously in love, but they can't be together, if life is only as first when he sees Nara Huier, it will probably be an eternal regret in his heart."

Hao Lei looked at her daughter with emotion, sat next to her, combed her broken hair to her ears, and asked, "Do you want to talk again?"

"Mom, I remember when I was a child, when we were playing in the mud together, drilling dog holes, playing water guns, stealing persimmons, and often being chased by dogs, running awkwardly, playing dirty every day, and then being scolded by you," Anxin chuckled, and Hao Lei also laughed

"At that time, he was carefree and happy, there was only me by his side, and there were no other girls, but as I grew up, I felt that he was getting farther and farther away from me, and the women around him were getting more and more angry, making me angry," Anxin said, hugging his knees with his arms around his knees, and his big eyes were foggy, "I'm a little afraid, I'm afraid that he won't like me anymore, I'm afraid that he will fall in love with other girls."

Hao Lei sighed in her heart and said with relief: "You don't have to worry that you are Xiaoyan's first love, but it will never be his regret, because you will become his wife in the near future."

My wife smiled at ease, what a beautiful term, I hope so

"Did the pig's head miss me?" Anxin appeared on the computer screen with a smile on his face, and his heart blossomed

However, Cheng Yan didn't pay attention, her eyes turned to the woman standing next to her, who was still charming

"Godmother" Cheng Yan greeted An's mother very obediently

Mother Ann's eyes narrowed into a line with a gentle smile

"Oh, Mom, I still have something to say to Xiaoyan, you are leaving," Anxin impatiently pushed An'an out of the house

"Cough, this dead girl" An's mother struggled to twist her head and said to Cheng Yan: "Don't talk too late, she still has an exam tomorrow."

"Oh, godmother, good night," Cheng Yan waved at the camera and waved to An's mother

Finally sent away the verbose mother An, who returned to her seat with peace of mind, puffing out her cheeks, and breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at her like this, Cheng Yan couldn't help but wonder: "Ming'er has an exam, what kind of exam?"

"Don't mention it," Anxin looked bitter and hateful, complaining bitterly about her parents' oppressive policies towards her, listening to her bitter history, Cheng Yan also felt the same way, Anxin is the pearl of the An family, although she is a woman, she is the only legal heir of the An family, and the burden on her body is not much lighter than Cheng Yan

Anxin was still holding his chin and chattering: "No, tomorrow, I will have to go to the hotel to learn from G, although he is the chef who was hired by my father with a lot of money, but he is very arrogant, and he said that he wants to see my level before deciding whether to accept me as an apprentice, hum, wait and see, I will definitely surprise him."

Cheng Yan has never doubted Anxin's cooking skills, just like he believes in his own driving skills, because he likes it, he enjoys it, so he is excellent, and he suddenly thinks of the racer and itches again

"You've lost weight lately, I'm watching you by your side, you must not be eating well again"

Cheng Yan smiled slyly: "I'm okay, but how do you feel that you have been a little fat recently, it seems that you have a good life"

"Really," Anxin touched his slap face in a panic and wanted to cry: "It's not that Boss An thinks I'm too thin and forces me to eat all day long, and if I continue like this, I'll really become a little fat man, if I really become a little fat man, do you still want me?"

Cheng Yan laughed and didn't feel at ease, as if he didn't mean to answer, he just said to himself: "You don't want to want it, there are many people who want me."

 

Cheng Yan raised his eyebrows: "A few meanings are not being targeted"

"What do you mean to be targeted, it's a bad word, but ah, there is indeed a boy chasing me, and the conditions are not bad," Anxin blinked his big shining eyes and held his chin and chattered: "The same height as you is the president of our school's basketball club, and I have watched him play several games, and he looks good, and he is slightly more handsome than you, so I heard that his family background is also good."

Cheng Yan laughed while listening, and couldn't help but interrupt her: "Okay, okay, don't praise what you said, is that human, since the conditions are so good, it's not as good as you, after this village, there will be no such shop."

An An glared at the screen and slapped two times: "I really have no conscience, I'm so worthless, hum, but if you don't marry, you will hang yourself on this tree in this life, no matter how good he is, in my heart, he can't compare to one-tenth of yours."

Anxin's confession is always so naked, Cheng Yan's face turned red when he heard it, and he felt a lot of shame in his heart, but what he wanted to say was like a fish in his throat

Look at him, he lowered his head and laughed out with peace of mind: "Why are you shy, hahaha, it's rare to see the heroic Young Master Cheng Yan when he also has a little woman."

Listening to her jokes, Cheng Yan was not in the mood to joke at all, he paused and said, "Peace of mind, there is something I want to tell you."

Anxin couldn't help but be nervous when he looked so serious: "Are you doing something bad again when you are so serious, don't tell me which woman you hooked up with behind my back again, it won't be Zhongli?"

"What, whatever, where is this, it's impossible for me to talk nonsense with her," Cheng Yan said angrily

Anxin originally wanted to make a joke with Cheng Yan, but when he saw Cheng Yan's face, he hurriedly coaxed: "It's not okay to be fierce, it's not okay to make a joke, then you say it, I'll listen to it."

"I" Cheng Yan was angry, and the courage that he had finally mustered was reassured, and he was so troubled and retracted, alas, Cheng Yan sighed in his heart: "Forget it, let's wait until you go back to Beijing."

Look at the time displayed at the bottom right of the computer screen: "It's really not early, don't you still have an exam tomorrow, rest early, recharge your energy, let's talk later" After speaking, Chong Anxin made a cheering gesture

Anxin was still a little unsatisfied, but when she thought about not sleeping for a while so late, her mother should have nagged again, and said stupidly: "Okay, good night", before saying goodbye, she still rewarded Cheng Yan with a big smile: "Remember to miss me"

After the thread, Yan beat his head in annoyance, he really didn't use such a little thing to handle it well, his eyes glanced at the bookshelf, in addition to placing some of his favorite jade, books, and racing models, there was only a group photo of him and Anxin, from the baby born to the scenic spot photos taken by the two of them to Lijiang not long ago, a year from the time they never left behind, these bits and pieces of memories lingered in Cheng Yan's heart

His eyes suddenly fixed on a photo, and he was still childish at that time, probably only seven or eight years old, and Cheng Yan tried hard to recall

It was a scorching summer, Cheng Yan and Anxin finally got rid of the "little tail", Jin Che secretly ran to the swimming pool in his backyard to swim, Cheng Yan was playful, and insisted on competing with Anxin to see who could hold his breath in the water the longest

Anxin was also eager to try, but the result was not admitting defeat, and he stayed in the water for too long, and his brain was seriously deprived of oxygen, and he almost drowned, but fortunately, the adults found out in time and fished the two out of the water, and Anxin had fainted

Seeing Anxin's pale face, Cheng Yan was frightened, pushed everyone away, hugged Anxin tightly in his arms, kept shouting Anxin's name, and gave her artificial respiration like an adult, Anxin choked on two mouthfuls of water and spit it out, and gradually regained consciousness, and said to Cheng Yan with a mischievous smile: "Xiaoyan, I won."

Cheng Yan cried anxiously: "Win a fart, you almost lost your life, do you know, don't worry, I promise you, I will never take you to such a dangerous place in the future, I will protect you, take care of you, and I will not let anyone bully you for the rest of my life."

Cheng Yan didn't think about anything else at the time, he just felt that because of his prank, he almost killed Anxin, and he had to pay a price, but he didn't expect that this "price" would be so big

Remembering that when he said these words like a little adult, the elders around him couldn't help laughing, and it was the first time that Anxin looked at himself in such a daze, and suddenly kissed him on the cheek and ran away, while he touched half of his face and stayed in place for some reason

In the end, this matter ended with fifty slaps from his father, thinking of this, Cheng Yan was excited, silently put down the photo, and said silently: These are all painful memories
