Chapter 9: Sending You Home

Xia Yu knew that He Yi'an didn't like people to get too close to him, so she shrunk her legs, sat in a standard lady's sitting position, and sat quietly next to him.

She tilted her head slightly, and saw the warm sunlight shining on his face, adding a touch of warmth to his delicate facial features, and this warmth seemed to flow into her heart, warm and comfortable.

She likes to bathe in the sun, he looks gentle, not the cold appearance he usually has.

And this narrow space made her one step closer to him.

He Yi'an may have been blinded by the sunlight, and turned to the outside, but inadvertently touched her shoulder, only to see him frown slightly, and sit inside.

"Sit down a little." Xia Yu's delicate voice entered his ears with quiet music.

He Yi'an took off the earphone on the left and glanced at her lightly.

She sat outside, leaving half of her seat for him.

"No, you don't." He replied indifferently, put on his headphones again, closed his eyes lightly, and cut himself off from the outside world.

Xia Yu sighed slightly, sat back in place, and a trace of loss flashed in his heart, which was so fast that it made people feel very subtle.

Back in Xiangyuan Street, He Yi'an answered the phone, Xia Yu followed behind, faintly heard Jiang Yuan's voice, and asked him to go to a party in the evening.

He Yi'an hummed and promised them to go out tonight.

Xia Yu walked into the alley and watched him enter the house before driving home.

——

After dusk, the sky gradually darkened, and before seven o'clock it was dark, and the wind was strong and cool.

Xia Yu nestled in front of the desk to read a book after eating, her parents were not around, she lived alone, except for being a little unaccustomed at the beginning, she slowly got used to it.

may have been self-reliant and self-reliant since she was a child, and she arranged her life in an orderly manner.

The sound of raindrops sounded outside the window, which woke Xia Yu, and she looked up from her book and looked out the window.

The rain was washing over the glass windows, and it was raining heavily outside.

It was still sunny this morning, and she didn't expect it to rain in the evening, so she looked up at the clock, and the hands were pointing at half past eight.

Thinking that this afternoon, He Yi'an and Jiang Yuan went out for a party, and they shouldn't have gone home yet.

Counting the time of their party, it was not raining at that time, she got up with a bang, went into the bathroom to change her pajamas, picked up the umbrella in the entrance, and went out.

She knew that He Yi'an usually didn't look at the weather when he went out, and he was too lazy to bring an umbrella, he was still susceptible to colds, and if he followed Jiang Yuan's gang, he would definitely go home in the rain.

Fortunately, she deliberately pricked up her ears behind He Yi'an this afternoon to listen to the place they had agreed with - Grilla.

"Come on, come on, we celebrate Brother Yi winning another game in the city team."

"That's right, Brother Yi, come, cheers."

"Through this competition, I guess Brother Yi's reputation is big again."

"Haha, it's still our brother Yi who is amazing."

Jiang Yuan Liang Tao praised He Yi'an with every word, but the person who was praised didn't speak lightly, and when he saw them raising his glass, he touched it lightly, and then poured it into his mouth.

He doesn't have many friends, but Jiang Yuan and Liang Tao have been with him the longest.

"Hey, it's raining outside." Liang Tao probed out and found that it was wet and dark outside.

"Okay, it's not too early, let's go back." Jiang Yuan raised his hand and looked at the table below, and found that it was almost eleven o'clock, and there was still class tomorrow.

The three of them walked towards the door in a majestic manner, because they were all boys, this little rain was not in their eyes, Jiang Yuan and Liang Tao covered their foreheads first and ran out.

Their home is nearby.

He Yi'an was about to walk into the rain with his pocket in his pocket, and as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by someone behind him.

"He Yi'an!"

Behind the doorpost came a girl in a light blue dress, holding an inky umbrella, her fair and delicate face flickering in the headlights of the car back and forth.

She smiled and groaned, her eyebrows and eyes were curved into the shape of a crescent moon, and her beautiful eyes were as bright as stars, and her eyes were shining.

She walked towards him like an angel.

He Yi'an's heart moved slightly, he pursed his thin lips tightly, and looked at her lightly.

When she got closer, he found that her lips were a little pale, the wind was slightly cool tonight, her skirt was fluttering, it was estimated that he had been waiting for a long time, somehow, a trace of strangeness flashed in his heart, so subtle that people couldn't catch it.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm waiting for you." Xia Yu held the umbrella and covered his head, and she didn't smile until his whole body was under the umbrella.

Her light words slightly rippled in He Yi's peace of mind, and his hands trembled imperceptibly.

Wait for you, three simple words may be very bland to others, but for He Yi'an, it seems that no one has said it to him for a long time, and his heart that has been silent for a long time seems to be warmed in an instant.

"Let's go, I'll take you home." Xia Yu stood on tiptoe slightly, and in order to prevent him from getting drenched in the rain, he held the umbrella closer to him.

Originally, he should have pushed her away very indifferently, saying that he would go back, but at that moment, the words of refusal were replaced by a faint "um".

The sound was soft and faint, muffled by the sound of the rain colliding with the ground.

His hands were still in his trouser pockets, his expression was indifferent, and the two walked side by side, sometimes rubbing his clothes, inadvertently touching his body, and she would always apologize to him softly.

The bustling streets, the traffic, but there is a quiet atmosphere between them, and there is nothing to say all the way.

It's not that Xia Yu doesn't want to talk to him, but he is afraid that he will be distracted and will accidentally deviate the umbrella and get drenched on him.

The tip of her nose was full of his masculine scent, mixed with a faint smell of alcohol.

He drank, but not much.

She thought that walking with him would be so nervous that she couldn't hold the umbrella steadily, but she didn't.

Xia Yu was about to go to the alley, when He Yi'an pulled off his umbrella, he raised his head slightly, and motioned for her to walk towards the opposite side.

A hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she followed the street he said.

Not long after walking, she found that this section of the road was becoming more and more familiar, she stopped, raised her eyes to look at He Yi'an, "The way back to my house?" ”

"Walk or not!" He Yi'an frowned slightly, a little impatient, he didn't like others to question what he decided.

Xia Yu hurriedly followed his footsteps, didn't make a sound, and quietly held the umbrella.

After a while, it was the gate of the community, Xia Yu paused slightly, and wanted to ask him how she knew where she lived, but she was afraid of getting an indifferent answer, so she didn't make a sound.

At that moment, He Yi'an turned around and walked out of the umbrella, and the whole person fell into the fog and rain, and now the rain has become smaller.

Darkness covered the entire street, and the warm yellow light was hazy in the fog and rain.

"He Yi'an!" Xia Yu's voice broke the silence of the street, she quickly ran over and stuffed the umbrella into his hand, and quickly rushed into the community.

He Yi'an looked at the umbrella in his hand and was slightly stunned, turned slightly, and looked at the girl running in the fog and rain, the light blue skirt swaying with her movements.
