Chapter 9: Suddenly Becoming Stronger

"Yawn" Shen Linxi kept sneezing as soon as she got home, thinking that she was going home in the heavy rain and catching a cold, Ming Xia complained while wiping her hair,

"How did you go out for a while and be like this? Still looking like you have nothing to love, is this you? "Yes, is this her, Shen Linxi looked down at the pendant in her hand, a little sad, Ming Xia looked at her like this and knew that no matter how much she asked, there would be no result.

Shen Linxi was lying on the bed and self-regulated, some people or things are just accidental encounters, there is nothing that can't be let go, some memories will eventually precipitate, even if they sound inadvertently, they are just themselves...... It's too idle, it's just a self-deceptive thought, forcing myself not to bear to leave.

She thought that she was really right to tell the boy that her name was Mu Xi, otherwise he would have died to the end today, the memory of that year was actually nothing else worth remembering for a lifetime except for her father's departure, the boy's name had been gradually forgotten, because for her, the boy only accompanied her through the most difficult days, and the memories of childhood were not as profound as they were at the beginning, but today's events made her understand that the boy had not forgotten her.

The sky is very dark on a rainy day, as the saying goes, a rainy day is the best time to sleep, Shen Linxi took medicine and fell asleep, in the dream she had a long dream......

In the distance, a little girl with a white face lay quietly outside the window, her eyes full of longing. What she looked at was a bewitching blood-red kapok, but unfortunately there was no leaf on the other side, leaving only the color of the city to survive lonely in the world. At the age of 8, she chuckled at this, and sighed the sadness of the flower several times. But the flower was still gorgeous and colorful, which made her tempted.

She had always liked this kapok very much, but the red color of the flower frightened her, its color was shocking, red like blood, and the same was true of her mother's departure.

She wanted to buy it and take care of it, but it couldn't. She could only stare at the desolate flower for a long time, her bright brown hair fluttering gently, and the girl shook her head again and again, reluctant to leave. She stroked the flower through the glass again, smooth and cool, is it the heart of this flower complaining?

"I want to take you away too." The girl said softly, she could be so innocent in her dream, and the corners of her mouth raised a trace of arc in her sleep.

Her crystal ball-like eyes were full of pity, and her eyes seemed to sparkle and shine. The girl kissed lightly, and in the blink of an eye, a drop of glittering water slid down her cheek.

A young man who came out of the flower shop casually looked at the girl, his delicate and small side face was engrossed in a certain place, and he followed her gaze to see that it was a kapok plant.

Can't she afford it? Been here these days.

The young man's eyes were a little more suspicious, and he began to carefully look at the girl in front of him who had caught his attention. Dress modestly, simply and elegantly.

I'm afraid that this kapok is not within the scope of this girl's bearing, but shouldn't girls like roses, peonies and other flowers? Why did she fall in love with this kapok?

The boy looked up and looked at a kapok tree in front of him, which had bright red flowers, so it was kapok.

Suddenly, he slowly walked to the girl who was squatting there and smiled: "You like this kapok, why don't you buy it?" ”

The girl stood up and said silently: "If it was before, my father would not hesitate to buy a lot for me, but now my father said that the company is running badly, so I think I should be more modest." ”

The girl did not turn to look at the boy, but still looked at the flower: "I like it a lot. ”

The girl's eyes were covered with a thin mist, as if the tears were about to burst through her eyelids and flow down freely.

The young man looked at her side face, sighed slightly, put a kapok tree he had bought in front of her eyes, and said lightly: "Is this one for you?" ”

The girl was startled, and looked at the kapok, which exuded a fragrance that was not very strong but intoxicating enough, and their color was like blood. Its beauty is so bleak, so vibrating.

The girl noticed the boy, who was a very sunny and handsome face, and the afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled on his inky hair, dotted with sparkling shadows, as if he had come out of a comic.

The girl gently kissed the newly bloomed kapok, and said for a while: "Thank you, but these flowers, if I take them home, can only be one and will not survive." ”

The girl put the flower in the boy's arms, and the flower that she kissed seemed to be human, swaying gently, as if saying goodbye to her.

The boy stood up and said, "Wait for me for a while, okay?" ”

The girl was still staring at the flower, as if she hadn't heard the boy say.

She looked at the kapok tree for a long time until it was taken away, and the girl's heart hurt as if it had been pricked by a needle. She shook her head, "You don't belong to me in the first place. "Turn around and want to leave.

"Wait, don't you want that kapok" The girl turned around blankly, only to see that the boy was still holding the kapok, unlike just now, this one was orange with a faint yellow, and a blue pendant was tied at the end of the bouquet, which looked really beautiful.

The girl stood in place, and her heart was more joyful. The boy approached her, and the girl turned around.

"You ......," the girl looked at the boy suspiciously.

"Here you go, the kapok you like." The boy smiled, and the girl was slightly stunned.

"The flowers are indeed beautiful, but this blue pendant ......," the girl carefully stroked the pendant.

"I've got it for you!" The boy smiled warmer than the April sun.

In this way, they "met", and the girl told him that her name was "Mu Xi", and this name was given to her by her mother, to be precise, she had two names. The boy proudly said his English name, Henry.

This dream is so beautiful, Shen Linxi is a little reluctant......

It's just that the dream will wake up after all, Shen Linxi got up and looked out the window blankly, always thinking that a sunny day was the most beautiful, but now he found that a cloudy day can be so impressive.

It's really "heaven makes it beautiful".

The next day, Shen Linxi and the others woke up early in the morning, and the two went out for a run, but they unexpectedly saw those two people, and the other was Zhao Lianmo, who had not been seen for a long time.

When they approached, Yin Yichen saw Shen Linxi, frowned slightly, and his eyes drifted towards Shang Yuchen.

Shang Yuchen nodded, "Let's shoot a few balls first!" ”

The basketball in his hand suddenly came to Yin Yichen, and when Yin Yichen saw that he was moving, he took half a step back, buffered it, and caught it steadily.

"What about me?"

Before the words fell, three steps to the basket, a jump, and the basketball hollowed into the basket.

Yin Yichen raised his chin slightly, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Shen Linxi, but quickly withdrew his gaze.

"Yes, the catch is very solid, the layup position is very standard, and it would be better if it was faster." Shang Yuchen smiled and praised sincerely.

"How? I said don't underestimate me, my skills are not talking. Yin Yichen came over and patted Shang Yuchen on the shoulder.

"Shibei three days should indeed be impressive!" Although he said it to Yin Yichen, his eyes looked straight at Shen Linxi, "Since you're here, it's better for everyone to be together!" ”

Yin Yichen subconsciously looked at Shen Linxi on the side, his face was slightly pale, Yin Yichen closed his eyes, remembering what happened at school yesterday, how embarrassing it is to play together today! When I opened it again, I didn't see Yin Yichen, I saw him walk to the chair on the side, took a towel, wiped the sweat on his neck, and said: "Let's fight against the three of you, Shen Linxi, Ming Xia, you fight less, Shang Yuchen is stronger, you can be in a group with him, I will be aggrieved and Zhao Lianmo together, is it okay to be grouped like this?" ”

"Okay!" Ming Xia agreed.

Everyone thinks it's okay, Yin Yichen looked at Shen Linxi suspiciously, and she only smiled at him.

"Let's get started!" Shang Yuchen was eager to try, and at this moment, he didn't want to break the atmosphere because of the grudge between himself and Shen Linxi.

"We're going to settle for 10 balls, win or lose, and we're not going to get tired." Insist on having a game next summer.

"Okay!" After taking a deep look at Ming Xia, Shen Linxi nodded.

Yin Yichen took the ball first, Shang Yuchen and Ming Xia stepped forward to block him, but they didn't want Yin Yichen's eyes to squint slightly, he didn't pass the ball, he was very fast, he shook twice in a row, he crossed Shen Linxi, made a layup, scored, and scored.

Shang Yuchen grabbed the ball and went out of bounds at a speed, and then rushed back, at this time Ming Xia and Shen Linxi were already in front of Yin Yichen, looking at each other, Yin Yichen held back the doubts in his heart, and devoted himself to the game, only to see him cross the block of the two girls sideways, and quickly walked in front of Shang Yuchen.

"Shen Linxi!"

Shang Yuchen passed the ball, Shen Linxi waited under the basket because no one stopped him, and took the ball and shot directly, beautifully-smoothly tied it.

Shen Linxi and Ming Xia Shang Yuchen high-fived each other. The confrontation continued, and in the ninth round, Ming Xia scored a goal, and the tenth round began.

After nine rounds, Yin Yichen's team led by three points, and the victory was decided.

"On the last lap, Zhao Lianmo took the ball!" Yin Yichen said very calmly, and then turned around to stop Shang Yuchen.

"Ming Xia, break Zhao Lianmo's ball!"

Shen Linxi rushed behind Yin Yichen after shouting, and suddenly an adventurous thought flashed in his mind, "Ah! She screamed, Yin Yichen subconsciously turned around to support her, but he didn't expect him to react so quickly, Shen Linxi sighed in her heart.

Mingxia and Shang Yuchen leisurely took the opportunity to run in front of Zhao Lianmo, he was broken by Shang Yuchen, made a layup, and scored the ball.

When he turned around, he saw Shen Linxi looking at him with a red face, and his hands were still grabbing his clothes, as if the palpitations had not disappeared, and Yin Yichen had an inexplicable feeling in his heart

Shen Linxi felt a little blocked in her heart, but she smiled on her face, and noticed that Yin Yichen's gaze was shooting directly at her, Ming Xia made a grimace, and both of them ignored him anymore, turned around and went to greet Shang Yuchen and leave.

"Young Master, aren't we going to send them off?" Zhao Lianmo asked,

"No need, we can go back ourselves." Shen Linxi ignored the discomfort in her heart, refused, and suddenly wanted to be alone.

Shen Linxi saw that Yin Yichen and Shang Yuchen were still discussing something, pursed their lips, and left directly.

On the way, Mingxia went to the supermarket to buy food, and Shen Linxi went back alone first.

When he walked to the corner, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and turned around leisurely, Yin Yichen had already arrived in front of him.

"Why are you here?"

"I'll let them go first."

Yin Yichen didn't say much, Shen Linxi looked up at him suspiciously, the shadow cast by the tall body covered herself, her body exuded a thin angry breath, her eyes were like a torch, and Shen Linxi's face was even redder due to exercise, her heart was tight, she didn't know what to do, her clear big eyes fluttered left and right, and she didn't dare to look at Yin Yichen.

The panicked expression looked in Yin Yichen's eyes, smiled slightly, and his tone was slightly cold.

"Shen Linxi...."There was a deliberate pause, attracting her attention, Yin Yichen squinted his eyes slightly, his fingers gently brushed away the hair in front of his leisurely forehead and touched her smooth forehead intentionally or unintentionally, feeling her nervousness and dodging, he let go of his hand, and his hoarse voice was not so cold.

"I don't mind if you're not her!"

Shen Linxi didn't seem to be relieved from the action of being pulled by his hair, and unconsciously touched the forehead that was touched by him, and Yin Yichen's eyes became a little darker.

"What?" It took her a long time to react, and Yin Yichen felt that her peripheral nerves were a little long.

"It's nothing, go back, I'll send you." Yin Yichen took Shen Linxi's little hand and took it forward.

Shen Linxi was stupid, and the dry and warm temperature in her hand made her heart beat like a drum, but reason reminded her that this was not right, and she struggled hard, but did not break free.

"Lady Shoma, please let go!" She was a little angry, what's wrong with Yin Yichen today, why is he so bold?

Yin Yichen stood still, didn't let go, and looked at her fixedly, "Shen Linxi, this is your punishment for me tonight!" “

It's just one night, Yin Yichen's sudden strength made Shen Linxi very unaccustomed, she slowed down her voice,

"Yin Yichen, I'm not the person you're looking for, we don't know each other at all, you can't be like this, and besides, I don't want to affect my studies because of emotional matters these days, are we as good as ever?"

"Shen Linxi, I'll send you back, I said this is a punishment for you, now I won't let go, if you argue with me again, be seen by others..."

Yin Yichen's tone was firm, his eyes did not miss the expression of the girl in front of him, and he knew in his heart that if she let go, she would definitely escape, and she could only attack strongly.

"Is there anything like you?"

Shen Linxi couldn't help but want to hold her forehead, her heartbeat was still accelerating, looking at Yin Yichen's expression, she knew that it would be impossible to change his mind if she continued to argue.

"Let's go!" Lowering his head, his face was a blushing mess, and Shen Linxi quickened his pace.

The corners of Yin Yichen's mouth curled, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, for fear of leaking his smile and making the little girl run away in shame, and her complexion returned to stability.

There were no words all the way, the temperature of the palms of the hands, and the unfamiliar feeling made both of them a little at a loss until they were downstairs in the shared apartment.

"It's here, you can go back too!" Shen Linxi didn't look up, she knew that her face was blushing and not looking good.

Yin Yichen suddenly clenched, and then let go of his hand, "Go in!" ”

"Hmm." After her hand was freed, she didn't dare to look at Yin Yichen and quickly ran forward.

Yin Yichen looked at her figure and regretted it a little, she had changed too much, she was so strong, could it? Looking at the palm again, the temperature of the palm dissipated, and there was a faint reluctance in my heart.

The corners of his mouth went up, he laughed at himself, his hand was held, and it was too late to regret it....
