The night, like a thin layer of eggshell, was slowly peeled off by an invisible hand, and the milky morning light fell from the blue sky, spreading like flowing water. The world opened its eyes, and once again, awoke from its sleep.

For countless people, this is just an ordinary day in their lives.

For a small number of students, as well as their parents, this is a very unusual day in their lives. After this day, some of them will be the ultimate victors of the three-year battle, while others will become losers and secretly retire. Or continue to fight without admitting defeat.

And for Chen Jiayu, perhaps, it will be a fateful day.

Half past six in the morning.

Chen Jiayu opened his eyes.

Although he didn't sleep well all night, he slept for eight or nine hours, exchanging time for quality, and recovered most of the time.

Without the intention of getting up, Chen Jiayu just turned his head slightly sideways, and looked at the girl beside him with great nostalgia.

If, if you may never see her again......

What should he do?

Chen Jiayu tried his best to get this thought out of his mind, but the closer he got to that moment, the more his heart was like boiling water, and he couldn't calm down.

Xu felt his gaze, and the girl's butterfly-like eyelashes moved, and then they opened little by little in his gaze.

Chen Jiayu asked, "Are you awake?"

With her eyes half-open, Cai Jiayi asked, "What time is it?"

Chen Jiayu turned his head and looked at the alarm clock, "Six thirty-five, do you want to get up?"

"Hmm...... Wait a minute," she shrank into Chen Jiayu's arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, rested one leg between his, and said lazily, "...... I can lie down for another ten minutes."

Chen Jiayu smiled.

I hugged her and lay down for a while, then I lowered my head and kissed her, "Okay, it's time."

The two got up.

After washing, we went to the kitchen together.

Chen Jiayu opened the refrigerator and took out a handful of green vegetables, half a piece of pork, and a few shallots from the refrigerator.

Cai Jiayi looked at it, "Do you eat shredded noodles with vegetables and pork in the morning?"

"Well, I'll cook the noodles, and you go change your clothes."

"Okay."

Chen Jiayu rinsed the vegetables in clean water and put them in a water filter basin.

Then, the pork is rinsed, placed on a eucalyptus board, and quickly sliced with a knife, and then the slices are stacked diagonally on top of each other.

He held the knife in his right hand and pressed his left hand on the slices of meat, the sharp blade cutting into the slices of meat, turning them into shredded flesh.

Suddenly, last night's question, like a shadow that could not be dispelled, surfaced from Chen Jiayu's heart again.

Why is it that every rebirth is done at the same time?

That time...... Does it have any special meaning?

Could it really be as Cai Jiayi said, something special happened at that time, so I took it as a key signal and closed all my memories after that......

The pain in his fingers suddenly interrupted Chen Jiayu's thoughts, and he lowered his eyes and was stunned for a moment.

There was an extra knife cut on the index finger of the left hand, and a wisp of bright red had already gushed out of it, and the fingertips were instantly red, which was a little shocking. ….

"Why is it bleeding?" Cai Jiayi let out an exclamation, she ran over quickly, and after taking a look, she hurriedly went to the locker and rummaged out the medicine box.

Chen Jiayu rinsed his fingers under the faucet.

The wound was not too deep, Cai Jiayi used iodophor to detoxify him, and then carefully wrapped it with a band-aid before exhaling.

"Fortunately, it's only left-handed, so it won't affect the exam."

She raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Jiayu, stopped talking, and finally got up and said, "I'm going to cook noodles."

Watching the noodles slowly soften in the pot, Cai Jiayi suddenly raised a hand and slowly covered her chest.

For some reason, it suddenly jumped violently, and it hit hard, as if it was about to crack it.

She closed her eyes, opened them again, and breathed deeply, and it took a minute or two for the anxiety to dissipate.

……

After breakfast, Chen Jiayu and Cai Jiayi went to the examination room together.

Everything is the same as yesterday.

There is still a while to enter the examination room, seize the few minutes left, the old party is doing the final pre-war mobilization, the eyes of the surrounding parents look more anxious than the child, but they still have to squeeze out a smile, for fear of causing a little pressure burden to the child.

At half past eleven o'clock in the morning, the comprehensive examination officially ended.

There are still more than three hours before the start of the last English exam.

Chen Jiayu took Cai Jiayi home.

Chen Yuzao is also at home, although today is Monday, her school is the examination room, so she has been at home during the holidays for the past two days.

Lunch was plentiful.

There are four dishes and one soup on the table, namely scrambled eggs with tomatoes, asparagus and shrimp, pork ribs soup with winter melon, braised crucian carp and three fresh.

After the meal was served, Ruan Xiulian squeezed out a smile and said softly, "Okay, let's eat."

Despite the abundance of the meal, three of the four ate it as if it were chewing wax, after all, in five hours, the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads was about to fall, and it was still unknown what the outcome would be.

Only Chen Yuzao still looks heartless.

After eating two bites of rice, she picked up the fast seeds, sandwiched a quick tomato scrambled eggs on the plate in front of her, and as soon as she put them in her mouth, she immediately shouted, "Mom, don't you need money for today's salt?"

Ruan Xiulian glared at her, "What do you mean by that?"

"Why are tomato scrambled eggs so salty?! How much salt did you put in it?"

"Salty?"

Ruan Xiulian was stunned for a moment, and immediately straightened her face and said, "How is it possible, your brother and Xiaoyi both ate tomato scrambled eggs, why don't they say salty, you think it's salty?"

Chen Yuzao was unhappy: "I didn't lie, it's obviously salty!"

"Mom has been cooking for so many years, when has it been salty?"

"Taste it for yourself!"

"You know my least favorite tomatoes, and it's because you like to eat them that I fry." Ruan Xiulian snorted, looked at Cai Jiayi, and her expression immediately changed to a pleasant face, "Xiaoyi, tell me, is this tomato scrambled egg salty or not?"

「…… Huh?" Cai Jiayi came back to her senses and smiled, "I didn't pay attention to it just now, now try it."

She took another quick tomato scrambled egg and put it in her mouth. ….

In the next second, his face changed very slightly.

Then, in an extremely tactful tone, he said, "Slightly, a little salty, but it's okay......

Chen Jiayu noticed her expression, and also sandwiched a quick tomato scrambled egg.

A second later, he swallowed with some difficulty, picked up the soup bowl in front of him and drank two sips of soup before saying, "Mom, it's really a little salty."

"Mom, look, brother and sister Jiayi both said that it was salty, I didn't lie to you!" Chen Yuzao raised his face triumphantly.

Ruan Xiulian glanced at a few people with some suspicion, and stretched out a fast child at the tomato scrambled eggs.

「……」

She pulled over the trash can next to her and spat out the food in her mouth.

He sighed again, "Maybe I was thinking about things just now, and I put sugar as salt...... Alright, don't eat this dish, eat the rest."

Chen Jiayu: "Hmm." snorted.

"Why are you so soulless that you can't even taste the salty food?" Chen Yuzao noticed the abnormality of the three of them, her dark eyes rolled a few times, and she suddenly spoke.

"Could it be, you're worried about my brother's afternoon?"

After that, she put down her fast, patted Chen Jiayu beside her vigorously on the shoulder, and comforted, "Don't worry, you will definitely be fine."

Chen Jiayu pulled the corners of his mouth: "Isn't it the college entrance examination?" Yes

What's the matter?"

In the next second, Chen Yuzao grinned and said a word.

"I'm not talking about the college entrance examination, it's your cycle."

Chan Ka Yu / Choi Ka Yee / Yuen Xiu Lian: "???"

Cai Jiayi was the first to react, she turned her head to look at Chen Jiayu, and Chen Jiayu read a question from her eyes: Didn't you say that your sister didn't know about this?

Chen Jiayu replied with his eyes: I didn't tell her, did my mother say it?

He turned his gaze to Ruan Xiulian.

Ruan Xiulian was also shocked.

She was afraid that her daughter would not be able to keep it a secret, so since Chen Jiayu told her, until now, she has been tight-lipped about Chen Yuzao, not to say a word, not even half a word.

Chen Yuzao was very satisfied with the shocked expressions of the three of them, and raised his chin, showing a little smugness.

Chen Jiayu frowned, raised his hand to twist her face, and asked in a tone that felt inexplicable, "What are you talking about? What cycle?"

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts!" Chen Yuzao's tears burst out, and while struggling to resist the claws from his brother, he said loudly, "Chen Jiayu, what are you pretending! I know it, isn't it just that every afternoon after this afternoon, everything will be over and you will go back to the summer vacation of your sophomore year of high school? It hurts to death, don't pinch my face again!"

「……」

Chen Jiayu was silent for half a minute before letting go of his hand, his face a little ugly, "How do you know?"

At this moment, some unbelievable thoughts even welled up in his mind.

Cai Jiayi also looked surprised.

Chen Yuzao rubbed her little face and pursed her lips, "The night before yesterday, I got up to go to the toilet and happened to hear my mother chatting with my father's photo......

The three of them looked at each other, and Ruan Xiulian opened her mouth.

Before the husband's death, the relationship between the husband and wife was very harmonious, and when something happened, no matter how big or small, they were used to sharing it with each other. After her husband died, Ruan Xiulian encountered troubles, even though she knew that there would be no response, she would still habitually talk to his photos. ….

She knew that the "cycle" should be kept a secret, but the longer she held it in her heart, the more depressed she became, and the more restless she slept and ate, and the night before, she couldn't help but pour out all the tears in her husband's photo.

It's just that she never expected that it would be so coincidental that her daughter happened to hear it.

"I've always felt like you've been weird lately, but I can't think of why. The night before yesterday, combined with my mother's words, I realized what was going on."

Chen Yuzao straightened his chest and waved his hand in a matter-of-fact manner, "Okay, I can understand why you didn't tell me, this thing is indeed quite incredible, and in your eyes, I am just a child, even if I know, it will not help, and I may even leak the secret." Therefore, I have a great deal of money about you excluding me, a close family member, from those who know without my permission, so I will not bother with you."

「……」

Chen Jiayu looked at her silently, and if his eyes could make a sound, it would be: "...... What a face."

Chen Yuzao stared at her dark eyes, shook her head and comforted, "Chen Jiayu, you have to learn to think about the good. Although your mental age is now older than me and my mother combined, you look young, which can be regarded as eternal youth in a sense! Tut-tut, it's too late for many people to envy it......

Chen Jiayu: "......"

He said he was not comforted at all.

I really wanted to hit her.

Chen Yuzao didn't notice his darkening face at all, and continued, "Of course, I also understand your feelings, after all, you don't want to be separated from Sister Jiayi, alas...... But can't this cycle really be solved? Have you thought of any other way? I feel so magical, it's just a plot that only happens in the future, can I follow and see it in the afternoon......

Ruan Xiulian interrupted her, "Shut up and eat your food!"

"Hey, how do you eat with your mouth closed?"

「……」

Chen Jiayu couldn't bear it, one

A popper knocked over.

Chen Yuzao covered her forehead in pain, muttered for a long time, and saw that no one paid attention to her, so she reluctantly held the rice and continued to eat.

The meal was finally over.

No matter what the mood is, the minutes still pass.

Seeing that it was past half past one, Chen Jiayu took Cai Jiayi and stood up and said, "Mom, let's go first."

Cai Jiayi also said, "Auntie, goodbye."

"Oh, good." Ruan Xiulian was in a trance, stunned when she heard the words, then squeezed out a smile and nodded.

Sensing that Chen Jiayu was about to step out of the door, she suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "Jiayu, after the exam in the afternoon, do you want your mother to come to the school to pick you up?"

Chen Jiayu was silent before saying, "No need."

No matter what the outcome is, whether Ruan Xiulian goes or not, it won't change anything, and he doesn't want to be distracted by other things until the answer is revealed.

Ruan Xiulian sighed.

At this time, Chen Yuzao suddenly rushed over, grabbed Chen Jiayu's arm with both hands and shook it vigorously, his tone was full of confidence, "Brother, don't worry, I believe you will win!"

[In view of the general environment, "...... Why?"

Chen Yuzao clenched his little fists, looked angry, and said super loudly, "It's like this in film and television dramas and anime, the protagonist was originally abused by the villain, but when he found true love, he directly transformed into Superman, broke through all difficulties, killed the villain to the bumper, and then had a perfect ending!"

That's what the legend says—

True love is invincible!

Cai Jiayi couldn't help but bend her eyes and said with a smile, "Well, you're right."

Chen Yuzao looked at her, her big eyes were shining, and she felt like she had gained a "bosom friend", "Yes, Sister Jiayi, you also think my words make sense!"

Cai Jiayi nodded: "It makes sense."

Ruan Xiulian also smiled, "You said so many things today, and this sentence is still like this."

Chen Yuzao: "Do you think I don't care about my brother? I care about him too!"

Chen Jiayu finally bent the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and rubbed the top of his sister's head, "Well, I want your auspicious words."

I'm on fire this year
