Chapter 55: Tenderness and Joy (Including Notification of Listing)



The night was quiet, and the branches of the windows swayed gently in the wind. It seemed to be raining lightly, and there was a small sound of water breaking on the surface of the lake.

Jinzhi lowered her head and wrote the short stories from the book she had chosen on the card, word by word.

Ying Hanshi sat beside her, holding a pair of scissors, and cut the cardboard into small cards. I have to say that his hands are more skillful than Nie Chuhong, and the cards are cut neatly, just like a knife.

The two of them just went about their business quietly. His gaze occasionally fell on her, and she kept her head down and remained silent.

Suddenly, the bell rang, breaking the silence.

Jinzhi glanced at the number and stood up: "I'll go answer the phone." ”

"Okay."

Jinzhi walked to the balcony, closed the sliding door, and watched the drizzle in the sky.

"Xie Jinxing, what's the matter?" She smiled.

Professor Xie's voice was very gentle: "Jinzhi, today is Auntie's death day, I called to greet you." What are you doing? ”

Jinzhi was silent for a moment and replied, "Well, thank you." I'm making cards for the kids at Hope Elementary School. After a pause, he said, "I burned paper money for her in the morning, and I also made incense." ”

Professor Xie smiled and was about to say something more, when he suddenly stopped, and then Jinzhi heard a noise on the other end.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Professor Xie's voice.

A sharp middle-aged female voice faintly came: "Who are you calling today?" To that vixen's daughter? ”

"Mom, don't say that! She's my sister. ”

Jinzhi looked down at the phone, was silent for a moment, put the phone to his ear again, and said word by word: "Xie Jinxing, tell Auntie: My mother is not a vixen." It was your father, her husband, who lied to my mother. If I had known that he had a wife and children, my mother would not have looked at him. ”

After saying that, she hung up the phone and turned off the phone directly.

She stood for a moment before she turned and walked into the house.

Slightly stunned.

Ying Hanshi was still sitting in the same place, cutting the paper calmly with his eyebrows, and he saw his slender and white fingers moving slightly under the light.

She sat down and continued to write in silence.

It was about this night that was too quiet, and her mind slowly calmed down.

"Xiaozhi." When it was cold, he suddenly spoke.

Jinzhi looked up at him.

He put down the card in his hand and looked at her with clear eyes: "Why did you think of doing these things for children?" ”

Jinzhi was silent for a few seconds, and then replied, "I saw a sentence in a book: 'If there is still power, go and protect the good things.'" That's probably what I have left. ”

Be silent when it is cold.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jinzhi lowered his head, lay on the table, and continued to write cards.

Ying Han stared at her for a moment. He couldn't avoid the content of her phone call just now, and he could hear it word for word, including the roar on the other end of the phone. And at this moment, she was sitting very close to him, with a faint silhouette under the lamp. She lowered her head, dark brows, and clean eyes, looking so gentle. She said that there was still room for power, and she had to protect the good things. The pen was held in thin white fingers, a delicacy that was completely different from her character.

When I was cold, I suddenly remembered that kiss again. I think of her sweet and soft scent, so dark that night. She was in his arms, letting him clasp his ten fingers and small tongues, entangled with him.

His gaze slipped silently to her lips.

Jinzhi originally lowered his head and wrote seriously, but suddenly his eyes were stunned, staring at the desktop, and he didn't blink for half a while. The fingers holding the pen also slowly tightened.

Ying Hanshi noticed: "What's wrong?" He quickly understood: "What do you see?" ”

But Jinzhi did not answer.

Then when Ying Han saw her blushing very little, her face was obviously red, almost red.

She didn't look at him, Huo Di stood up, threw the card on the table into his bag, and was about to leave: "I'm going home." ”

Ying Han was a little stunned, but he still stood up immediately: "Then I'll send you." ”

Jinzhi suddenly turned his head to look at him: "You are not allowed to send it!" ”

When it is cold: "......"

In the blink of an eye, she had opened the door and walked out quickly.

——

There was still a light rain in the sky, and not long after Jinzhi ran out of the villa, a taxi happened to drive out next to him. She immediately got into the car, sat down and turned around, and saw that in the night rain, Ying Han actually chased her out, he stood on the side of the road, watching her get into the car.

The taxi driver also noticed it and quipped, "Yo, this is another quarrel with my boyfriend." Girl, your boyfriend is very handsome, how pitiful he looks, forgive him as soon as possible. ”

Jin Zhi was silent.

"Where are you going?" The driver asked, "It's raining, the road is not easy to walk, and it is blocked everywhere." ”

Jinzhi was silent for a moment, and then replied, "Take me to the ferry." I crossed the river by boat. ”

"Okay!"

It was raining heavily.

Jinzhi always looked out the window at the neon lights until he reached the entrance of the ferry by the river.

The Yangtze River at night shows that the water surface is wider and heavier. Although there are several bridges and tunnels across the Yangtze River, the ancient way of ferrying is still preserved.

When he was a child, Jinzhi often followed his mother to cross the river by ferry.

When upset, she comes, too.

I took out two dollars and bought a ticket at the window. She followed the flow of people, walked down the long corridor, crossed the gate, and entered the docked ferry.

On rainy days, there are a lot of people on the ferry, and it is also noisy. She picked a window seat and sat down. He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

When it's cold, when it's cold.

, they called him Starstream in awe.

But when she closed her eyes and opened them, all she saw was him standing on the side of the road, looking at her far away.

I want to go back.

She was so impressed to go back to him.

Subconsciously looked at the gate, but the red light above flashed at this time, and the gate closed little by little.

She was suddenly startled, and slowly raised her eyes.

Through the gate, at the top of the long corridor, a familiar figure stood there.

The white light shone above his head, his whole body was drenched in the rain, his white shirt was clinging to his body, and his hair was messy. Apparently chasing all the way.

From a distance of more than 100 meters, he looked at her, his eyes were dark and moving, as if there was an undercurrent.

Jinzhi's heartbeat suddenly became fast, and he looked at him in a daze.

At this time, the ferry started slowly. Soon, the eaves of the ship obscured her view and she could not see it.

Jinzhi looked at it for a while, then turned around, sat silently for a while, and reached out to cover his face.

What are you chasing, do you know what she saw in his study?

……

It was in that room, in the same soft light.

I don't know which day or moment in the future.

The wind blew the pages on the table, and the cards scattered all over the table, but no one cared.

Her seat was empty.

She sat on his lap and put her arm around his neck. And he lowered his head, closed his eyes, and hugged her and kissed her all the time. There was silence all around, except for the tail behind him, wagging softly and gently.

……

A few minutes later, the ferry arrived on the opposite shore. Jinzhi was a little distracted and walked out with the flow of people.

The moment she crossed the gate, she was suddenly stunned.

Something strong intuition suddenly came at her.

She looked up slowly.

Ying Hanshi stood a few steps away, looking at her with his hands in his hands, a smile slowly appeared between his eyebrows, gentle, but firm.

The surrounding area is full of people coming and going, noisy and empty.

Jinzhi's heartbeat accelerated like never before. She walked towards him step by step, as if she were walking towards another brave and lonely future.

His shirt was soaked, and there were droplets of water on his forehead. I don't know if it's rain or sweat. There were also a few smears of black on his shirt, I don't know how he got it in the past few minutes.

"How did you get here?" Jin Zhi asked. He didn't have a car, and he couldn't be seen running.

He looked up at the Yangtze River Bridge not far away, and replied, "Sticking to the bottom of the bridge pier, I ran over." ”

Jinzhi imagined the scene for a moment.

Suddenly, my heart ached.

He looked down at her: "Xiaozhi, I ......"

"Wait a minute." Jinzhi interrupted him. The two of them stood like this, which had already attracted the attention of many people.

“…… Say it in a place where no one is around. She said.

"Okay."

Five minutes later.

The two arrived at the top of a hill by the river, and there was a pavilion on the top. At this time, the night rain is falling, and the coolness is soaking. Jinzhi sat in a corner of the pavilion. When it was cold, he turned his back to her and looked at the rain with his hands down. The street lamp not far away was dimly diffused, and she saw that his side face was still red.

Without waiting for him to speak, Jinzhi spoke first: "When it was cold, that night...... We were both a bit impulsive. ”

That confused and intimate kiss.

Ying Han was silent for a moment, and looked sideways at her: "Jinzhi, what is impulse?" ”

His eyes were so dark and quiet, and Jinzhi replied softly, "That's it...... We're all a little emotional, not very calm, and a little ...... Driven by desire. ”

Ying Hanshi stared at her for a few seconds, then slowly turned his face away, leaving only one ear for her.

"If, ever since I met you, I've been impulsive." He said, "Isn't that impulsive?" ”

Jinzhi looked at him motionlessly, and in his ears, there was a clear sound of rain.

"Jinzhi...... Do you not like me? He asked softly.

Jinzhi was completely speechless.

Both of them were silent for a while, and then she spoke, "You're right...... Cross-planetary love, isn't there a little psychological barrier? ”

He shook his head: "No." The people of the dawn are married to races from many other planets. ”

I see.

Jinzhi put his hands on his knees, stared at the muddy water stains on the ground, and said, "When it was cold, you saw that I had grown so big, and I had never been in love. It's not because I'm demanding, and it's not because no one pursues. But from childhood to adulthood, my idea was to find a man who would never leave me. He understands what I understand, and he has the same aspirations as me. He has no one else in his heart, and he is only good to me wholeheartedly. I'm only good to him.

These...... You can do it all. However, I never thought of being with an alien.

I don't know where you're coming from, or when you're leaving. You're still a soldier, you're a commander. Despite the fall of the Empire, your duty remains. You may have a lot more to do to protect the chip. There is danger, I know you must go alone, and then leave me with a back. ”

Ying Han stood still and listened to her speak slowly.

She looked up at him: "We all want to avenge Gu Jisheng and want to protect what he once guarded." As a partner, I am willing to always work with you, as long as I can do my part. But as a lover, I don't know if one day, you will leave me. Do I want to ...... too? Spend the rest of your life alone alone. I can only miss you, but I can't grow old with you. ”

When she had said this, she fell silent. Ten fingers are pinched very tightly.

Ying Han didn't speak. She looked at the short hair next to his ear, looked at his still slightly wet back, and suddenly felt sad.

She stood up: "I'm done, I'll go back first." ”

But I was probably walking too quickly, and as soon as my feet stepped out of the pavilion and stepped on the muddy floor, I felt a slippery feeling. She was crooked, and she was about to fall.

A hand reached behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. As soon as he exerted his strength, she fell into his arms.

He hugged her and didn't move. Jinzhi's face was pressed against the wet shirt on his chest, and he didn't move.

"Jinzhi." He whispered in her ear, "I understand...... Your mind. ”

Jinzhi's eyes suddenly became a little sour, and he didn't make a sound.

"I joined the army at the age of fifteen and fought for seven years. After the destruction of my home planet, I traveled at the speed of light in a dormant state, and I wandered for a long, long time. I also imagined what my future woman would look like. ”

He gently let her go and looked down at her, "Until I meet you." I want to get you - this kind of mood slowly takes root in my heart. If you don't love me, I will continue to take care of you for the rest of your life. If...... You also love me, I am willing to be with you every day, accompany you and cherish you, we ...... To remain a devoted couple to the end of their lives. When we die, we are buried in the same tomb and never separated. Give me a chance, can you? ”

Jinzhi didn't say anything.

She couldn't say anything.

……

What key conditions have changed?

Is his heart becoming stronger, or is her heart changing?

……

She saw the near future, and he hugged her and sat on a bench in the moonlight, smiling gently;

He was seen cooking seriously in the kitchen, while she lazily leaned back on the couch and read;

He pressed her against the door of the room, bowed his head and kissed her. And Xiao Qiongyan was shut out of the door, looking curious;

They hugged each other and lay on the bed, he wrapped his tail around her waist and kissed her with his head down.

……

She clearly saw that there was more and more tender pleasure that belonged to him and her.

At the moment when he dissected his heart, they finally became irreversible and came to her.

The author has something to say:

A few words of nagging, this article will be on the shelves from tomorrow for a fee, a single order. Update tomorrow with double word count. The first shift is still at 12 noon. Remind again,I'll go forward v some chapters.,It's about the beginning of chapter 32.,Don't buy it again if you've seen it.。

Thank you for your continued support. I remember when I was serializing "If Snails Had Love", I said that I was writing full-time, and my online subscription income was almost all my source of financial income. So at that time, many new readers came to the website to register and subscribe to support me. I was very impressed. Now, the writing environment is better than before, and the online subscription income will not be the same as before, firmly choking Lao Mo's economic lifeline (hehe). However, the longer you write, the more you need your encouragement and support. Because you see that people who can persist in long-term online writing are really a minority, because it takes sustained passion and a strong heart. Therefore, I hope to see everyone come to Tencent genuinely to support me. I hope that when I see the number of subscriptions tomorrow, I can happily write down, okay? Hey, hey, see you tomorrow~
