After being dragged ashore by the caretaker from the center of Swan Lake, Xiao Yao went to refund the deposit, and then took Yu Luying to lunch.

In the park, where prices are two to three times higher than outside, Xiao Yao and Ms. Yu sit in the open-air area outside the restaurant, where there are many small wooden tables and plastic chairs.

Yu Luying still didn't seem to be in a good mood, slowly drinking a big bottle of cold 7-up for ten yuan.

The semi-open-air restaurant in this park is surrounded by trees and flowers, and some tourists are walking and taking pictures in the distance. The afternoon sun lifts away the clouds and shines through the thick shade of the trees, making it less scorching, and the breeze blows through the air, which is fresh and pleasant.

Regarding Yu Luying's seven-happiness drink of ten yuan, it can be added here as follows: It was said that it was a big bottle earlier, but in fact, it was only five or six hundred milliliters, and it was packed in a plastic bottle. The girl sat in a plastic chair with one hand resting her chin and the other holding a drink bottle. Her brow furrowed slightly, as if she was thinking about something, and she looked a little distressed.

Xiao Yao was also distressed and stretched out his hand to her.

Yu Luying casually handed over the drink bottle, Xiao Yao tilted his neck, and drank two large sips.

The young man's eyes were fixed on his mobile phone screen, Shen Jie still had no news, and he couldn't find anyone whether it was a text message or QQ, which was the root of Xiao Yao's troubles.

Xiao Yao crackled and pressed the mobile phone, and handed the drink bottle back to Yu Luying, who didn't twist it, took Qixi and took another sip of his cherry mouth.

Only then did the young man realize that this action was a little subtle, and he raised his head from the screen and glanced at Yu Luying. The latter also reacted, his face flushed.

Neither of them said anything, though.

Xiao Yao watched the girl stand up, go and throw the empty drink bottle into the trash can not far away, and slowly walked back.

"Little Apple," Xiao Yao said, "you come and call your sister." ”

"Huh?" Yu Luying was stunned for a moment: "Ah, good." ”

"She's been out of touch for a whole day," Xiao Yao took the initiative to explain without waiting for Yu Luying to ask: "It's not abnormal, no, it's abnormal." ”

Yu Luying pursed her mouth: "Other girls don't revolve around you 24 hours a day, my sister just hates being too clingy." ”

……

"Okay, I'll just fight." Yu Luying said as she sat back on the plastic chair.

Xiao Yao was anxious in his heart, he had been holding back since the morning, and he really couldn't bear it anymore.

One day, one whole day! Although he tried to text and QQ, he didn't get any response. He had been guessing all kinds of possibilities in his heart, imagining all kinds of difficulties that Shen Jie might encounter, and his mood became more and more nervous and uneasy.

"But there's one that has started to turn black." The elusive little flower girl who doesn't know if it's a human said.

If she were human, she would be a witch.

"Flowers that are fully blooming will soon wither." These inexplicable words have been echoing in my ears like the whispers of demons.

Xiao Yao kept checking his phone, expecting to see any news from Shen Jie. His fingers kept tapping on the phone screen, his brow furrowed, and his eyes were full of anxiety and worry. He felt his heart beat faster and his breathing quicker.

Although he tried to calm himself and told himself that it might just be Shen Jie...... Damn, I can't make up a reasonable reason. Unable to calm down, he began to feel fear and despair, fearing that the worst had happened. He felt powerless to deal with this uncontrollable situation, and his heart was filled with helplessness and anxiety.

If it weren't for Shen Jie's explicit order forbidding her to call her, and worrying that Yu Luying would be jealous, Xiao Yao would not have held back until this time before entrusting Yu Luying to call.

If it's Yu Luying's caller number...... After all, it's a girl, so you can always reduce a certain risk, right?

"It's through," Yu Luying put down her phone, "but no one answered." ”

"It's not pressing, it's not shutting down, it's just no one answering, right?" Xiao Yao confirmed.

"That's right." Yu Luying nodded.

"Fight again." Xiao Yao ordered.

"I've already hit three." Yu Luying did not carry out Xiao Yao's instructions.

"Okay." Xiao Yao said dejectedly.

"Don't think too much," Yu Luying tried to comfort Xiao Yao, putting her hand on the back of Xiao Yao's hand: "Maybe I didn't have my phone with me, she is at her own house, what can she do—wait a minute, it'll be fine, ah?" ”

As he spoke, he also pinched the back of his hand twice.

Yes, people are at their own homes, and they don't have their mobile phones at home, is this reasonable? Xiao Yao pinched back absentmindedly: "Thank you—I'm sorry, I didn't want to disturb your interest for this matter......"

"No," Yu Luying said duciously, "It's a matter for the three of us - you should have told me earlier." ”

In fact, Yu Luying's heart is a little unhappy - but it is not incomprehensible. These beautiful words won Xiao Yao's more respect.

"Have you eaten enough? Let's go," Xiao Yao pretended to stand up easily, and stretched: "Where are you going to play?" ”

"It seems to be ......" Yu Luying also stood up and pushed the plastic chair in the direction of the wooden table: "That's all there is to War Park, right?" Let's just take a walk around and get ready to go back - you'll have to brush another roll in the evening! ”

Xiao Yao was just about to speak, when suddenly, a black cat with shiny fur scurried past his and Yu Luying's feet.

The black cat was covered in shiny fur and looked very healthy and strong. It was slender and agile, quickly passing through the feet of the two men before disappearing into the grass.

Although it was only a flash, Xiao Yao felt that the black cat was watching him, and its sudden appearance made him feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"Is the black cat a servant of a witch?" Xiao Yao's expression suddenly became very serious, and he felt a sense of foreboding.

He knew that the black cat was often considered a symbol of bad luck and could represent disaster, misfortune or bad luck. In the past, he would not have taken such nonsense seriously, but he had now established a conjecture that the flower girl was a witch, and that the cat was either her pet or her incarnation.

Yu Luying frowned slightly: "Yes, its name is Azi Cat." Xiao Yao, why are you becoming more and more superstitious now? I'm about to become more superstitious than my mother, and I don't like you like that. ”

"No......" Xiao Yao considered whether to tell Yu Luying about the flower girl, and finally decided not to spread anxiety about this girl anymore, which ruined her interest - at least not today.

Xiao Yao and Yu Luying held hands and walked along Swan Lake, the lake water is clear, far from the bottom, the breeze blows across the water, causing a circle of ripples.

Their feet stomped on the stone pavement by the lake, making a crisp footstep sound. Xiao Yao could feel that Yu Luying's shoes and socks had already dried up, and the surrounding scenery was very pleasant, and the trees and lawns by the lake exuded a fresh smell.

It was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and the number of tourists had decreased a little, but there were still some people strolling along the lake or resting on benches. The sunlight in the sky shines through the clouds on the surface of the lake, creating a sparkling band of light that makes people feel warm and comfortable.

"Your aunt just left, and she drank so cold, does it matter?" Xiao Yao swayed Yu Luying's arm vigorously like a primary school student as he walked.

"It's okay, it's been a few days." Yu Luying glanced at him a little strangely.

"Oh, are your aunts usually punctual? Fixed 28-day round? Xiao Yao asked with a casual look.

“…… It's not that precise," Yu Luying thought for a while and said, "Sometimes it's not accurate, but it's also a day or two at most." Why do you ask this? ”

"Oh," Xiao Yao pinched: "It's not, it's my cycle now, I also want to count the days, and I can have a mental preparation in advance or something." ”

“…… Oh. ”

When Yu Luying was thinking about how to explain to Xiao Yao, the latter spoke again: "Hey, do you know that if a girl is usually quite accurate, and then suddenly she is a few days late, what is the general reason?" ”

"How many days is a few days?" Yu Luying said casually: "Generally, a bad mood, anxiety, nervousness, and lack of sleep may lead to an irregular cycle. ”

"Bad mood, anxiety, lack of sleep," Xiao Yao repeated, "Is that all?" ”

"Mental stress is the most common," Yu Luying explained, "and then there is illness, ovarian dysfunction, polycystic ovaries, endometriosis, thyroid problems, diabetes, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. ”

What the hell is diabetes coming out? Xiao Yao sneered: "It's worthy of being a doctor's daughter." ”

"I'm a professor of Chinese medicine." Yu Luying corrected: "Do you want to hear how the theory of Chinese medicine explains the imbalance of cycles?" ”

Xiao Yao said honestly: "Thank you, I don't want to hear it." ”

"Then there is the wrong medicine," Yu Luying sighed and said, "Contraceptive pills, hormone drugs or something." ”

"Avoid ......," Xiao Yao said.

"Don't you know that some girls will take birth control pills before important exams, staggering the cycle and exams." Yu Luying said.

“？？？ It's outrageous! Xiao Yao subconsciously shouted, "Have you eaten it too?" ”

"I don't do that." Yu Luying said with a cold face: "That kind of is all neurosis." ”

"It's weird to think about." Xiao Yao commented.

"Anyway, you can observe and observe within a week," Yu Luying made her final concluding statement: "I will go to the hospital in more than a week, and I can't hide anything from a laboratory test." ”

After Yu Luying said this, she smiled secretly.

"Can't hide it?" As soon as Xiao Yao finished repeating these three words, he reacted to the other party's meaning.

Yu Luying stopped suddenly, and her face turned cold.

"Let's go? What's wrong? Xiao Yao gently tugged her.

Yu Luying forcefully pulled her hand out of Xiao Yao's palm: "What do you mean?" ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao's heart tightened.

"Aunt Shen Jie is late, isn't she?" Yu Luying narrowed her eyes.

"I'm just going with—" Xiao Yao said, "yes, she told me last night." ”

"You're worried about whether you're pregnant, aren't you?" Yu Luying's eyes stared at Xiao Yao, as if she wanted to penetrate him.

"Which one is pregnant," Xiao Yao smiled dumbly: "We are innocent and have nothing to do, how can we be pregnant, pregnant?" ”

"Really, not?" Yu Luying questioned.

"Of course not," Xiao Yao swore an oath, "both of us are not yet adults, if that is the case, this book will be gone." ”

"What book?" Yu Luying said coldly: "Let me ask you seriously, don't think that you can escape the problem by deliberately talking nonsense." ”

"Okay, okay, that's what it means anyway," Xiao Yao's forehead oozed fine beads of sweat: "Why do you think about that?" Her aunt was late, and I was worried about her health, so I thought of it and just asked you, isn't that reasonable? ”

"It's very reasonable," Yu Luying nodded, "If you hadn't asked me on the boat, where would the soul of the aborted fetus go?" - You've never been a lover of theology. ”

"This is my new hobby," Xiao Yao told Yu Luying, "Don't you see how serious I am in the Catechnics class now?" ”

"I'll ask you again," Yu Luying bit her lower lip and asked, "Have you ever been with her, nei?" ”

Xiao Yao looked at the expression on the girl's face - it seemed a bit exaggerated to say "terrible", but it was indeed "Tie Qing": he clearly saw Yu Lihua's shadow on the girl's face.

He had no doubt that if the girl heard the answer "yes", she would shake her hand and turn away.

And it's not something that can be coaxed in a day or two.

"Not ever." Xiao Yao told the truth.

"You swear." Yu Luying made this request.

"Do not swear by this: do not speak of heaven, for heaven is the throne of God; not to the earth, for the earth is his footstool; Do not refer to Jerusalem, for ...... I can't recite it below," Xiao Yao said stiffly: "I just learned it yesterday." ”

"It's a good back." Yu Luying showed an uncomfortable smile and turned her head to leave.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yao chased after him and grabbed Yu Luying's arm, but the latter didn't shake it off.

"Let's go back," Yu Luying said tiredly, "I'm tired of playing, and it's not early." ”

Xiao Yao didn't want his first date after confirming the relationship with Yu Luying to end in such an unpleasant atmosphere, but he knew very well in his heart that this could no longer be transferred according to his will.

The sky had darkened slightly, and the street lamps on both sides of the War Park trail were gradually lit up.

The faint light casts dappled shadows through the leaves.

"It's beautiful." Xiao Yao said.

"Hmm." Yu Luying nodded, letting Xiao Yao grab her arm.

"How are we going back?"

"I'm tired, let's take a taxi, it's not far anyway."

"Take the No. 6 tram, I want to take the tram with you, I feel it."

"Whatever you want."
