Chapter 21: The Seaside
The curtain of morning light slowly opened, with freshness descending on the world, and it was another gorgeous and colorful morning, and a beautiful day was about to begin. Today I can go to the beach that I think about day and night, Yijian is infinitely excited, gets up early, sorts out the necessities that she packed last night, and then tiptoes downstairs, leaving Anjia to set off to meet with her colleagues.
An Chengxuan didn't sleep well last night, and he got up early, just because he wouldn't be able to see anyone in the next two days, so he stood by the window early in the morning, just wanting to see her more. Watching her leave, An Chengxuan was glad in his heart, fortunately it was only two days, not forever leaving An's house.
Yijian came to the meeting place, and vaguely heard someone behind him shouting "sister", "sister", the voice seemed familiar, very similar to the "Tinker Bell" she had taken care of for a few days before..., An Yijian looked back, sure enough, it was Ah Cheng's innocent and immature son, Tinker Bell rushed towards her excitedly.
"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much." Tinker Bell hugged Yijian and looked up, looking at Yijian with her round eyes.
"I miss you too, Tinker Bell, how are you doing?" Yijian squatted down and touched his head kindly. Tinker Bell nodded vigorously, very well-behaved. Then Jane took Tinker Bell's hand and got into the car.
When colleague Xiaoyue saw Ah Cheng coming with Tinker Bell, she regretted it, "Hey... It turned out that I could bring my family, but I didn't say it earlier, I would have brought our little potatoes with me. β
The second monk turned to Xiao Yue with a confused look, "Why didn't I know that you were married and had a child!" β
Xiao Yue sneered, "Who told you that I gave birth to a child, I mean... Our pet dog is also my family. β
Shanshan rolled her eyes, "Okay, scare me." β
"Look, Tinker Bell sticks to you." Ah Cheng looked at Tinker Bell's dead face and must sit next to Yijian, and said with a smile that it seems that he will have a relaxing holiday.
"Yes, Yijian, you see that children like you so much, you just have one yourself." Hua Shanshan joked cheerfully.
Yijian laughed, "Hey~, don't be kidding, I never dared to think about it, hehe..."
Tinker Bell suddenly spoke, and said with a serious look, "Sister, what about the brother who played with us last time, why didn't he come?" β
"What brother?" Ah Cheng asked his son curiously.
Tinker Bell looked back, "It's the last time he played with us at the zoo, a very handsome big brother, he also bought me toys and read me a storybook, I like him so much, I want to play with him." He searched for a long time, then turned to Yijian with a lost expression, "Didn't he come along?" β
"Uh... He didn't come. Yijian hurriedly covered Tinker Bell's mouth and whispered.
"Handsome big brother?? Oh~ An Yijian, there is a situation, tell me quickly, are you hiding something behind my back, hurry up and recruit from the truth! Shanshan squinted and laughed.
"Yijian, who is that person?" Yan Yi suddenly stood up from the front seat and looked back at Yijian suspiciously.
"Uh... It is.. A friend of mine..".
"I think it's my boyfriend, otherwise I wouldn't know him, hahahaha." Hua Shanshan continued to laugh with interest.
Yijian said embarrassedly, "No, it's really just friends, he just had time that day, so I went together." "By the way, Shanshan, aren't you from the next batch, why did you come together today?" Yijian hurriedly changed the subject.
This time, Shanshan said with some hesitation: "I am.. For Zichu and Xiyu.. Hey, look how nice I am... Huh..". Shanshan remembered that after the meeting, she secretly discussed Chen Zichu's plan, and quietly changed Xiyu to his group, which was convenient for Chen Zichu, and then she could also hang out with the prince charming in her mind, killing two birds with one stone, that is... I feel a little sorry for Xiyu and apologize a little.
finally escaped the catastrophe, fortunately Yan Yi didn't continue to ask, otherwise Yijian really didn't know how to explain that friend's matter, and her mood relaxed a little, who made her the worst at lying, let alone in front of Yan Yi, she had never succeeded.
The bus drove for about two and a half hours, and the high-rise buildings gradually disappeared outside the window, and slowly disappeared into the villages and fields, and Jane looked around the car, and the colleagues slept together, all kinds of strange shapes, so interesting, and then looked at the little Tinker Bell in his arms and the same as visiting the zoo that day, falling asleep sweetly, and snoring a few times from time to time, very cute. Only Yijian looked out the window from time to time, wanting to see the sea sooner. Until the vision outside the window became wider and wider, she smelled the smell of sea salt, and saw several fishermen fishing on the shore, she excitedly woke everyone up, "It's almost there, look, the sea~"
Everyone woke up, stretched their waists, Shanshan yawned, and laughed at Yijian's fuss, "What's so surprising, isn't it the sea, it's like you've never seen the world!" "But it's really pretty, haha!"
Jane was embarrassed, and three lines hung on his forehead.
When they arrived at the destination, everyone got up and lined up with their luggage to get off the bus.
"Wow, the sea, I'm coming..."Shanshan ran to the beach exaggeratedly, if Xiyu was there, Yijian would definitely say the same thing to her, "It's too exaggerated!" β
"Let's all come here." Yan Yi clapped his palms and beckoned, "In this way, the heavy work such as setting up tents, building bonfires, and setting will be left to us boys, but what about girls..." Belch.. Let's set it up, prepare some ingredients or something, come, let's divide up and work together, and then play together after lunch. β
"Good!"
"Good!"
βyes sirοΌβ
Everyone nodded in agreement, but only a different voice shouted: "What about me, I'm a child." Tinker Bell asked, confused.
"Although you are a child, you are also a man, as long as you are a man, then you must be treated equally, go, move things.." Yan Yi tilted his chin and looked down at Tinker Bell.
Tinker Bell screamed excitedly, "Good.. go go..βγ
After a busy period of preparation, tents lined up on the beach, tables filled with barbecue, desserts, drinks and wine, and balloons with flowers. The white dining cloth, lined with the blue sea, the golden sand, and the diffraction of the brilliant sun, make people have a wonderful feeling, all the troubles and bad memories are disappearing at this moment, and the mood is suddenly good!
"It's really first-class cooking, and it makes people drool when they look at it." Shanshan praised while wiping her saliva that Ah Cheng, who was originally from a poor family, worked in a restaurant before becoming a barista in Kaffa Town, so he had developed a good cooking skill, and I heard that he also won the heart of Tinker Bell's mother because of his fast cooking skills and skilled coffee skills, but there was no way to investigate, just heard.
"Let's all come here, let's eat." As he spoke, Ah Cheng brought plates of delicious dishes to the table.
Yan Yi raised his glass and said to everyone, "At noon, everyone will simply eat something first, and if you have the strength, you can have fun in the afternoon." Everyone agreed, and happily enjoyed the food while looking at the beautiful scenery around them.
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, everyone was divided into two groups to start the beach badminton match, each team sent two players to compete together, with 10 balls as the line, and the side with the highest total score wins.
"Ah Cheng, why don't you catch the ball for me..."Shanshan said aggrievedly when she didn't receive Yan Yi's ball.
"It's because you're too short to pick it up."
"What do you say... I call this concentrated essence, you know what! β
"Ah, ah, ah, Shan, why are you hitting me when you let you play.." Ah Cheng let out a cry of pain.
Yijian stood behind Yan Yi with a racket, and looked at the opponent's player's mouth battle with relish, "Hey, do you two play with your mouth?" β
"You have to take care of it!" Shanshan was indignant.
Needless to say, I also know that it must be Yan Yi's side who wins, Shanshan's group has been noisy from beginning to end, and in the end they are still complaining to each other, sure enough, as long as there is a place for Shanshan, there is no need to be afraid of being cold, not to mention that she is still in Cao Ying's heart and in Han has been cheering for Yan Yi, the scene is really chaotic.
"Yijian, you see, our Vice President Yan, that figure, that posture, how many beach girls have been fascinated, it's really eye-catching, too ostentatious." Sister Xiuxiu, who was on the same team, walked up to Yijian and said excitedly, then shook her head and sighed, "If I hadn't been married once, I would definitely have fallen in love with him!" β
"Is there one?" Yijian looked at Yan Yi who kept jumping and smashing the ball, white T and blue beach pants, dressed casually, under the light of the sun, he was even more shining and handsome, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Yes, don't you notice, but ah, I think you're a good match for him, not the Shan, you must not lose to her." Xiuxiu said half-jokingly.
Yi Jian didn't say anything, just smiled, probably because he had known Yan Yi too early, he had always been a gentle and caring big brother in her heart, and she didn't think that he was also a "man", she looked at Yan Yi and couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that such a perfect man had actually become good friends with her, and she was happy in her heart, there was really nothing strange in the world.
Night gradually fell, little by little the surroundings were swallowed up by darkness, the sea became more and more unfathomable, silent, a few stars dotted the dark sky, the moon seemed to be covered with a silver veil of hazy fog, emitting a solemn and holy light, the sea and the sky at night, the stars reflected each other. The endless sea can be experienced even more in the night, the sky and the sea have long been merged, only the lighthouse in the distance is rotating the lights, guiding the journey. The waves surged to the shore, making a splash of white and crystalline water, coating the sea with lace like snow, and making a low and rhythmic call.
Everyone slowly returned to sit down next to the campfire, either with beer in their hands or a few barbecue skewers, and began to talk about wine and chat, Tinker Bell had already fallen asleep at this time, and was carried back to the tent by Ah Cheng.
After a while, Shanshan led the atmosphere and proposed, "Or, let's play Truth or Dare." β
"Okay.."
"Yes!"
"This can be had!"
"Agreed!"
The atmosphere gradually warmed up and burned like a bonfire, "Then let's start, those who can't answer will either have a talent show, or tell everyone a secret about themselves, how about it?" β
"Okay, come on, the beer bottle turns..."
Ah Cheng lost a game in the game, he has always been disgusted and boring by his wife, he told everyone that the most painful thing he has ever encountered in his life, before he entered the industry as a barista, because of the frustration at work, he was depressed for a while, and almost divorced Tinker Bell's mother, Sister Xiuxiu also told everyone with tears in her eyes that she was bitter as a single mother after the divorce, and then Shanshan also let go, and told her previous experience of being dumped by a scumbag because she was not beautiful and fat enough, and the atmosphere that was originally very high gradually gradually depressed, Finally it all fell silent.
"Eh~, Vice President Yan, tell us about you too." Shanshan may want to ignite the atmosphere again, or maybe she wants to test Yan Yi.
Yan Yi patted his leg with his hand and said with a smile, "Okay, what do you want to know..."
Shanshan suddenly picked up a branch and pointed at Yan Yi and asked, "Have you ever had a girl you like?"
Yan Yi lowered his head and looked at the flames and was silent for a while, "Yes!" β
Everyone looked at Yan Yi with great interest, and Yijian also looked at him curiously, Yijian had never heard Yan Yi talk about this matter.
Shanshan was surprised, although disappointed, she still couldn't help but be curious, "Say it quickly, say it quickly, what kind of girl she is." β
"Mmmm~," Yan Yi cleared his throat, "She is a girl I have known for a long time, she is very gentle and kind, but she is not smart, she often fails her grades when she is in school, and she is also very self-righteous, thinking about others everywhere, she doesn't even know that she is injured, and she has a set of crooked reasoning in her mouth, which makes people have to obey, hehe.." Yan Yi recalled, sadness and joy flashing intermittently in his eyes.
Listening to Yan Yi's story, Yi Jian looked at him with some suspicion, the person he said was very similar to her, wouldn't it be...
"What about her?" Shanshan asked with a listening taste.
Yan Yi raised his head, his deep eyes flashed over Yi Jian, and he stopped for half a second, "Later, we separated for some reason, but now I have found her again, and I have decided that I will never leave her again this time."
Yijian's heart was suddenly complicated and chaotic, looking at Yan Yi a little incomprehensibly, her hands were nervously clenched on the corners of her pants, she understood that the person Yan Yi was talking about was her, but she didn't know when her handsome brother had a different affection for her, when did he fall in love with her, even Xi Yu had already noticed the reminder three times and twice, was she the only one who didn't feel it. But none of this matters, the important thing is that he says he likes her now, so what should she do, how will she respond?? Yijian didn't want to complicate things, and she didn't think about the relationship between men and women, so she couldn't help but be a little caught off guard.
"Hahahaha, it turned out that Shanshan still had hope, but now it's okay, hehe..."
"Dead Ah Cheng, if you don't open your mouth, you'll die!" Shanshan said angrily.
"Yes, how can you eat without opening your mouth, and if you don't cook, you'll starve to death, stupid.."
After eating and drinking, and playing games again, everyone was a little tired, so they all dispersed and returned to their respective tents.
Yijian returned to the tent and lay down, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep for a long time, she was really frightened by Yan Yi's sudden confession, a little incredible, and a little unbelievable, it stands to reason that there is such an excellent boy who confesses to himself, and his heart should be happy, not to mention Zhang Junyi, who has always taken good care of her, just... She was not only unhappy but a little worried in her heart, he was like her relative, she didn't want anything or anything to change their current relationship, and she didn't want to become unaccompanied like she did six years ago, could she just accept this avoidable relationship?
"Yijian, why don't you sleep yet!" Sister Xiuxiu, who was in a tent with Yijian, asked.
"Sorry to wake you up." Jane answered softly.
"It's okay, go to bed early, recuperate your spirits, and you can have fun tomorrow."
"Okay." Yijian looked down at her phone, it was already past 1 o'clock in the morning, so she forced herself to sleep...
