In essence, we are all people who want to achieve our dreams and reach distant places.

- Xie Xiaonuan

"Xia Yuyang, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Xie Xiaonuan almost blurted out, and after quickly glancing at Xia Yuyang, he quickly lowered his head, and the shyness and embarrassment unique to a girl were all revealed.

"That's what you think." Xia Yuyang's gaze always stopped at her, and he stretched out his hand to rub her hair slightly, "Stupid." ”

"You...... I...... Ignore you......"

Xie Xiaonuan had never heard such sweet words, and suddenly popped out of his mouth, she only felt flustered, and wanted to escape from here immediately, escape from his side.

Looking at the slender and panicked back in front of her, Xia Yuyang shook her head helplessly, she was really self-inflicted, she would definitely ignore herself for many days in a row.

Xie Xiaonuan ran back to the house, leaning against the bedroom door, panting heavily, his heart beating loudly, but his heart was strangely quiet.

She and Xia Yuyang can be regarded as having experienced a lot of things, having been happy and having disputes, but more of them are sympathetic to each other, and she admits that she is very attracted to him.

But......

Xie Xiaonuan's eyes suddenly dimmed.

But recently, her father's attitude is very clear, and she can see that her father has always been tepid to Xia Yuyang, and she doesn't like to get too close to him.

She had already quarreled with her cousin once, and she didn't want her father to be angry with her because of Xia Yuyang again, which would not only hurt her father's heart, but also put Xia Yuyang in a situation where she was not embarrassed or embarrassed.

It's a huge conundrum, tantamount to a question that couples often discuss unsuccessfully: If your mother and I fall into the water at the same time, which one will you save first?

What the hell should she do to satisfy both parties......

Xie Xiaonuan really couldn't think of any solution, so he could only sigh heavily, walked to the desk, pulled out a chair and sat down, and stretched out his hand to turn on the lamp switch.

The lights in the bedroom came on, allowing it to shine with a dull yellow and soft light, shining on her tranquil and peaceful face, and a thick sadness flashed between her eyebrows.

At this time, the ringtone in her hand suddenly rang, interrupting Xie Xiaonuan's chaotic and spinning thoughts, she picked up her mobile phone from the bed and picked it up without looking.

"Hey ......"

The phone was quiet for a long time, so quiet that Xie Xiaonuan could hear the other party's subtle breathing, she looked at the phone screen suspiciously, showing Song Yiyi, and she was on the phone.

"Hello? Is it Song Yiyi? Xie Xiaonuan continued to ask.

"Well, it's me." Song Yiyi's sweet and sweet voice came, "Xie Xiaonuan, are you busy, I didn't disturb you, right?" ”

"No, no, how could it be!" Xie Xiaonuan immediately replied, "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”

I only heard Song Yiyi cough in a low voice, and then said, "I want to ask you, are you going to apply for liberal arts or science?" ”

"This ...... Actually, I haven't thought about it yet. Speaking of this, Xie Xiaonuan thought of Xia Yuyang's actions to him just now, and couldn't help but blush again.

"In this way, I have already thought about it, I am going to apply for science, I think my science grades are still okay, and my parents require me and Cao Rui to apply for science, if they say science, they will have more choices to apply for universities in the future......"

Song Yiyi said to herself, as if she completely ignored Xie Xiaonuan.

Xie Xiaonuan's brows furrowed slightly, and finally waited for Song Yiyi to cough, and asked in a low voice, "Yiyi, are you sick?" I hear you have some coughing. ”

Song Yiyi paused, the hand holding the phone tightened, and muttered shallowly, "Xiao Nuan, you are really careful, even my mother didn't notice it......"

"Huh? What did you say? Xie Xiaonuan didn't hear what she said clearly.

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask you ......" Song Yiyi suddenly laughed, "Do you have time tomorrow night?" My mom wants to invite you to my house for dinner. ”

Xie Xiaonuan was puzzled in her heart, she had seen Song Yiyi's mother, her personality was indeed a little weird, she was not very close to Song Yiyi, but she treated Cao Rui like her own son.

She really couldn't guess what Aunt Song invited her to do in the past, so she could only ask Song Yiyi stubbornly, "Tomorrow, is there anything wrong?" ”

Song Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "It's nothing, it's just an ordinary dinner, my mother also invited Xu Jingjing, she can't forget you." ”

Hearing this, Xie Xiaonuan instantly relieved her heart, since Xu Jingjing was going to go tomorrow, she had the right to visit the door together, so she readily agreed.

"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow, and we'll go straight to my house after school." Song Yiyi hung up the phone, secretly relieved, and then turned her head to look at Aunt Song, who was stunned.

"You're doing a great job." Aunt Song nodded, raised her hand and patted her shoulder.

"Hmm." Song Yiyi slowly lowered her head, still holding the phone tightly in her hand and not letting go.

Aunt Song's eyes were fixed on her hands, and after a long time, she said, "No matter what accident happens tomorrow, you must bring her over." ”

"Accident?" Song Yiyi raised her head abruptly and raised her voice, "Didn't you say dinner?" What could happen? ”

"Song Yiyi!"

Aunt Song also yelled and glared at her viciously, "You pay me attention to the tone of your speech!" Is this the proper attitude towards elders? ”

"Mom, I'm sorry...... I'm just a little worried, don't be angry, be careful. Song Yiyi gently grabbed her sleeve and shook it from side to side a few times, trying to get her understanding.

But Aunt Song didn't appreciate it, she shook Song Yiyi's hand away, "You also deserve to worry about others?" If it weren't for you, your own father wouldn't have died! ”

Song Yiyi's body trembled slightly, and her voice trembled incessantly, "Mom...... It's been all these years, can't you forgive me? ”

"Forgive you?" Aunt Song sneered, "You're just daydreaming!" ”

After speaking, he walked straight past Song Yiyi and walked towards the bedroom on the second floor without squinting.

Only Song Yiyi was left sitting alone on the sofa in the bedroom, she held her heart down, feeling a strong sense of powerlessness, which seemed to be able to tear her whole person apart.

Yes, it's all her fault.

If she didn't have a birthday that day, if she saw her parents coming home empty-handed, she didn't cry and ask for birthday presents, if it didn't rain that day, if she could hold her parents in time, if they didn't drive......

Song Yiyi slowly closed her eyes, covering up the irrepressible pain in her eyes.

She thought that that night, she was still waiting to eat the cake with anticipation, but she received a call from her mother first, and she didn't know what to do for a while listening to her mother's desperate voice.

Since that day, she has lost her dearest father, forever and ever.

Since that day, she has never had a birthday, and her mother has not seen her, and the two of them live under the same roof, but they are like strangers.

Father......

Song Yiyi cried out in a low voice, she didn't seem to have dreamed of her father for a long time, she couldn't remember his appearance clearly, and her voice gradually blurred.

Song Yiyi suddenly felt a panic for no reason, she hurriedly stood up, ran back to the bedroom as if flying, and took out a notebook from the bottom of the drawer.

She opened the combination lock of the notebook and fumbled in the leather compartment of the book cover for a long time before pulling out an old photo, the only full-body photo of her father.

She stroked the photo slightly, and carefully depicted her father's silhouette, and then showed a shallow smile, as if at this moment, her father was still by her side.

Xie Xiaonuan finished her homework, thought about it for a long time, and decided to call Xu Jingjing to ask.

only heard the sound of "beep-beep-" on the other end of the phone, but it was never connected, Xie Xiaonuan had to put away the phone and complained dissatisfiedly.

"This girl, won't she be busy dating again! It's just the opposite sex and inhumane! ”

Just as she was complaining, she suddenly heard a familiar voice outside, "Good evening, uncle and aunt, have you eaten?" ”

It's Xia Yuyang!

Xie Xiaonuan's heartbeat stopped suddenly, she quickly got up and ran to the door, and slammed the two locks on it, for fear that he would suddenly break in.

Who knew that Xia Yuyang did not come to her, but chatted with Xie's father and Xie's mother.

Xie Xiaonuan felt that he was a little abnormal, could it be because he fled in a panic before, and he was not as he expected in his heart, and he was resentful of himself?

She didn't think much about it anymore, just leaned on the side of the door and listened to the situation outside.

"We've eaten, has Yuyang had dinner?" Mother Xie looked at Xia Yuyang with pity on her face.

"I've eaten it too." Xia Yuyang paused and continued to speak, "I didn't come to see you during the Chinese New Year, I'm sorry, uncle and aunt." ”

"It's okay, don't be so polite." Father Xie put down the newspaper and finally looked at Xia Yuyang, "Are your parents okay for the New Year?" ”

"It's all good, thank you uncle for your concern." Xia Yuyang nodded, hesitated and said, "Actually, I have one more thing to do here......

"What's the matter? You say. Mother Xie handed him an apple and asked with a smile.

Xie Xiaonuan also approached the door, wanting to hear what Xia Yuyang was talking about.

Xia Yuyang glanced at the direction of Xie Xiaonuan's bedroom, and it wasn't until Father Xie coughed lightly that he reluctantly turned his head, sat down and said, "I won't come to your house for dinner in the future." ”

"Why?" Mother Xie's body froze, and after secretly glancing at Father Xie, she turned to look at Xia Yuyang, "Did you quarrel with Xiao Nuan?" ”

Father Xie coughed heavily again, looking at Mother Xie's eyes full of dissatisfaction, Mother Xie knew that she was speechless, and hurriedly closed her mouth.

"Why is that?" Father Xie asked softly.

Xie Xiaonuan also held his breath slightly at the moment, waiting for his answer.
