"You've grown taller and you've lost weight." Summer was lying on her side, half-squinting her eyes and bracing her spirits, and once her eyelids were closed, she never wanted to open them again.

"It's hard to be a rider, don't you see that."

Summer thought to himself, he should have met a lot of customers like Cheng Xiaolan.

"I earn a lot of money, and I heard that graduate students also go to deliver food."

"It's okay, I've saved a lot of money in the past few years."

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Nope."

"Oh."

"If you're sleepy, go to sleep, and ask when you wake up if you have anything to say."

"You can't go."

"Don't go."

Summer closed her eyes, put her arms around Xia Xi's arm, and soon fell asleep.

The sun is sinking in the west, and darkness can't wait to envelop the city.

The curtains in the bedroom were not drawn, and the lights on the upper floors opposite were reflected through the windows, making this bedroom with only a mattress particularly cold.

A phone call suddenly woke up Summer.

"Brother, what time is it?"

No one replied to her.

Summer hurriedly touched the side, there was no one, she sat up suddenly, and was so angry that she cried and scolded: "Bastard, big bastard." ”

The light in the living room suddenly turned on, Xia Xi stood at the door and closed the door with a "bang", and said reproachfully while taking off his shoes: "How can you say that my brother is a bastard." ”

"Where have you been? Didn't you say you wouldn't leave? Summer asked him crying.

"I'm going to buy food, call and call." Xia Xi walked into the bedroom and turned on the light.

Summer wiped away her tears and was about to answer the phone when the ringing suddenly stopped.

"I thought ......," Summer sobbed, "I thought you were gone again." ”

"Every day, I promise you that I will never hide from you again." Xia Xi squinted his eyes and said apologetically, "Hungry, right?" ”

"What to do? I'm here to help you. ”

"I bought it at the restaurant downstairs, just eat it directly." Xia Xi was carrying a plastic bag with stacked white lunch boxes inside.

The bell rings again......

"I'll bring the table in, you can answer the phone first."

"Yes, I'm not in the villa, I'm outside, it's inconvenient to say now, I'll go back later, rest assured, I'm safe." Hanging up the phone, Xia Xi wanted to help, but saw that Xia Xi had already set the table and set up the meal.

"Your boyfriend called?"

"No, I don't have a boyfriend."

"Let's eat."

"It's a lot of weight."

"Northern food is affordable, eat more."

"Well, didn't you sleep just now?"

"Slept for a while."

"Aren't you going to work in the afternoon?"

"The task bonus will be deducted, and the impact will not be great."

After eating, Xia Xia was in a lot of energy, and when she faced Xia Xi, she was completely relaxed.

"Brother, I'm going back to school tomorrow."

"Where do you go to school?"

"A University, Department of Psychology."

"A big!" Xia Xi looked at her sister with admiration, "It's ...... like big brother"

At the mention of Xia Xuan, the two of them lowered their heads in unison.

Talking about the past is like uncovering the scars of the past, which makes people reluctant to look at it or think about it.

After being silent for a while, Summer said, "Big brother died suddenly, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Xia Xi didn't raise his head and said, "I know." ”

Puzzled, Summer asked, "You know?" Do you know why you don't go home? ”

Xia Xi smiled bitterly and said, "At first, I was scared, but then I stayed outside for a long time, and I didn't want to go home, Mom, she never mentioned me, right?" ”

Summer wants to tell him that his parents have divorced, and his mother is broken, and she doesn't do anything, say anything, and can't see any color in her eyes......

In the end, she didn't say anything, wiped away the tears that suddenly flowed out, and said, "After the exam, I want to come to you." ”

"Come to me? Aren't you going home? Won't Mom and Dad be worried? ”

"It's okay, I want to spend the New Year with you."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Xia Xi smiled brightly, nodded and said worriedly: "However, I may be very busy during the Chinese New Year. ”

Summer took out his mobile phone and said to him: "Give me the phone number, WeChat, and the house key." ”

After adding the contact information, Xia Xi said, "Can you do it yourself after the exam?" Why don't I pick you up? ”

Summer shook her head and said, "No, I'm not a child anymore." ”

Xia Xi said: "You came here with your friends for Christmas? ”

Summer said: "A friend of a friend gets married. ”

Xia Xi smiled and said, "It's a very rich friend." ”

Summer snorted and said: "It's not the girl who wants to give you a bad review, the girl who got married is an orphan, her adoptive parents are very rich, and the day before the wedding, her biological parents brought a group of people over to ask for the bride price, it's really shameful." ”

Xia Xi didn't seem to be surprised: "The bloodline thing is like a scepter that can be 'claimed', some people hold it to gnaw the old, and some people hold it to gnaw the small." ”

Summer nodded in agreement, and was speechless for a moment.

A light snow drifted outside the window, and the two watched infatuately.

"I really didn't expect it, brother, you said that you wanted to come to the north, so you really came."

"I didn't expect to meet you in this small city."

If Cheng Xiaolan hadn't ordered food online, then they wouldn't have met again, thinking like this, the girl suddenly didn't feel so annoying.

Happiness is as short as a white horse, and while enjoying the time alone with his brother, Cheng Ze's phone call came again.

"Well, it's still outside, it's already 9 o'clock! Got it, let's go back. Summer frowned and hung up.

"I'll send you back, let's go."

"Can't I live here? I'll go back tomorrow. ”

"Your friends will be worried, how can you tell Yeon-yeon?"

Summer reluctantly put on a down jacket and followed Xia Xi out of the door, and while waiting for the elevator, she turned her head to stare at the window in the corridor and said in a threatening tone: "If I come back after the exam and you move, I will jump from here." ”

Xia Xi's heart was shocked, Xia Xuan's departure brought different harm to everyone, the saddest thing is undoubtedly her mother Li Lijuan, will she send the fire to the only child in the family, or will she pin all her hopes on her?

No matter what it is, the summer will not be easy, and if she can be admitted to A University with her grades, it must be the result of being forced to study by her mother, so she often has thoughts of suicide......

It must be so, otherwise how could you easily say that you want to jump off a building?

Thinking of this, Xia Xi was so uncomfortable that he felt as if he had been subjected to electric shocks again and again, his heart was trembling, every inch of skin and internal organs seemed to be burning, and his voice was hoarse and dry: "I'm not going anywhere." ”

Summer threatened again: "I will do what I say." ”

"No moving, I promise." After entering the elevator, he tilted his head to look at his sister, "How did you learn to threaten people?" ”

"It's always going to take some extraordinary means to deal with bastards."

"Shhh ”

The elevator stopped on the 6th floor, and a man and a woman came in, and Xia Xi let go of his hand.

When I got to the first floor, I felt the cold.

Xia Xi pushed the electric car out, and there was a windshield quilt on the handlebar.

"You sit behind and put your arms around me, putting your hands in my coat pocket, or the villa that day, right?" Xia Xi asked.

"Yes."

"Helmet on."

There weren't many cars at night, but Xia Xi didn't ride fast, and with him in front, he didn't feel how cold it was in the summer.

When he was more than ten meters away from the villa, Xia Xi stopped the car.

"Hug me so tightly, my back is sweating."

Summer reluctantly took the helmet to him and said, "You have to ride slowly when you go back, and send me a message when you get home safely." ”

"Got it."

"I'll be able to come over with you in about ten days, you have to wait for me."

"Well, get inside, there's someone waiting for you."

Summer was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around, he saw Cheng Ze standing in front of the door, and the exhaled tuans of haze gathered and spread around his mouth.

After seeing Xia Xi leave, Xia walked towards the villa, and Cheng Ze's gaze locked on her like a scope on a sniper rifle.

"Have you eaten dinner?" When Summer walked up to Cheng Ze, he asked.

"I've eaten it."

"With that guy?"

"Well, you've been waiting a long time?"

"I didn't have to wait long."

"Is everyone asleep?"

"Sitting in front of the fireplace and playing poker."

"Is there a back door here?"

Cheng Ze lowered his head and smiled lightly: "Understood, follow me." ”

Cheng Ze took her to a small door in the north of the villa, the door lock was a combination lock, Cheng Ze entered the code and gently opened the door.

There is a spiral staircase at the end of the corridor, and when you go up, the second room on the left is summer.

"I didn't even notice there's a spiral staircase over here." Summer whispered.

"Straight to the third floor." Cheng Ze pointed to the top of the stairs, "Do you want to go up and have a look?" The attic window is huge, just right to watch the snow. ”

"I'm a little tired." Summer declined.

"In this case, then I'll carry you up." Cheng Ze put his arm around Summer's shoulders with one hand and supported her knees with the other, and without waiting for her to resist, he hugged her and slowly went upstairs.

"You ......"

There are no lights on the third floor, there are floor-to-ceiling windows on the south and west sides, and a Christmas tree about 2 meters high is erected in the middle of the house, and the gift boxes are piled up under the tree, and the colorful lights on the tree are flickering alternately.

Cheng Ze placed summer in front of a large floor-to-ceiling window, with blankets on the windowsill and pillows on either side.

"How can you ......"

"Didn't you say you're tired?"

"Then you can't ...... Just hug me......"

"Oh." Cheng Ze nodded, then turned on the wall lamp hanging above the pillow, and the look of "I understand" when he bought the mobile phone appeared on his face, "Carry you next time." ”

“……”

That's not the point at all, right?

Summer found out that he was really stupid sometimes.

Cheng Ze raised his chin: "Look, the snow scene is beautiful." ”

The snow was heavier than when it came back, as if someone had cut through countless goose feather pillows in the sky, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the panes, and it was still getting higher.

The spacing between the villas was large, and in the distance you could see a corner of the roof above the snow-crushed canopy, and pine trees stood firm in the dry hard earth covered in snow.

Footprints and car prints are almost invisible, and the snow-white ground is as delicate and flat as a windswept sand dune.

Summer couldn't help but worry about Xia Xi, for fear that he would be obscured by the snow when he was riding, accidentally fall, and afraid of rubbing against other cars......

Unexpectedly, as soon as he found his loved one, he was accompanied by a fear that was stronger than joy, that he would lose him again.

"What do you think?" Cheng Ze asked her softly.

"Murder in the Snowy Night Villa, who's next, the murderer is among us......" Summer replied calmly looking out the window.

Cheng Ze was startled for a moment, then covered his stomach and laughed, and after laughing for a while, he said: "I like this kind of snow day the most, and I also like it when it rains heavily, what about you, do you like this kind of weather?" ”

"I like it."

"Because you can hide in the house and not go out, can you?"

Summer blinked softly in agreement.

It's hard to imagine that Cheng Ze, who seems to outsiders to be a social genius, is actually the same kind as her.

"In the summer, I don't just like snow like this, I like you too."

Again?
