"candle"

"c,a,n,c,d,l,e,candle"

……

After eating, Xu Luo, who had not been working, volunteered to wash the dishes. Before he finished, Jiang Yao walked into the kitchen with her English book.

So there was the opening scene,

The little girl held the book in one hand and the bamboo stick she picked up on the way to school in the other, swinging behind him.

"Hmm~ I can memorize the words pretty well..."

After spot-checking more than 20 words, Jiang Yao couldn't find Xu Luo's mistakes. She was satisfied but also felt a little regretful because she hadn't yet wielded the "pointer" in her hand.

Looking at Xu Luo who was bending over to wash the pot, the boy's butt was shaking, which made "Teacher Jiang" feel itchy.

"Teacher Jiang, why do I feel that your tone is a little disappointed?"

After washing, Xu Luo tossed water drops into the sink while looking at her speechlessly.

"Ahem... No way, didn't you see the relief on my face?"

Jiang Yao put down her English book and opened the Chinese textbook.

"Now check ancient poems..."

"'The next sentence of ''Gushan Temple North Jiating West'",

"'The water is initially flat and the clouds are low."

"Well... you asked about the return date yet,"

"The night rain in Bashan raises the autumn pond."

"Recite Du Fu's "Wang Yue" by heart."

"How about Mr. Dai Zong? Qilu is still young... He will be at the top of the mountain and see all the mountains..."

Jiang Yao nodded repeatedly, holding the green bamboo stick and walking around him like an old master with her hands behind her back. As an ancient poem that must be memorized in Chinese textbooks, the girl can certainly memorize it smoothly, but she is still the first This is the first time I heard someone stand in front of me and endorse something seriously. A month ago, this person was still a bad student in my eyes.

"Let me ask you the last sentence again. Do you hate the shocking previous sentence?"

"what?"

As soon as he wanted to ask the first sentence, Xu Luo, who was still calm and calm at first, was immediately stuck. He simply started to recite from the mouth and said: "The country is broken by the mountains and rivers, the city is springy and the vegetation is deep, and I feel the flowers splashing with tears..."

Seeing that Xu Luo was about to recite the correct answer, Jiang Yao interrupted the spell and swung the bamboo stick in his hand to hit him.

"what!"

"Snapped!"

In May, Xu Luo had already put on summer clothes. Because he was at home, the boy only wore a pair of casual shorts. It was quite unexpected that he got one in such a cold weather.

The blow was not too hard, but it made a loud sound, which sounded very relaxing and made people unable to resist another blow.

Hit it! Finally got it! At this time, Jiang Yao was in ecstasy. The bamboo stick hit Xu Luo, and a moderate shock came over her. She was excited for a while, and a smile of success broke out on her face.

The tingling feeling coming from her buttocks also made Xu Luo further confirm that this woman was bored. She wanted to find a reason to hit herself, so she couldn't help but said: "You cheated! If you hadn't interrupted, I would have recited it."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yao put her hands behind her back again and said with "serious words": "This is because your foundation is not solid and you lack training. I am doing this for your own good."

After saying that, she put away the textbooks and bamboo sticks in her hands.

"Hmm~ Okay! That's it for today's questions! Do you know that you have to recite it carefully after you go down?"

"Oh~"

Xu Luo rolled his eyes and said feebly.

"Huh?" Jiang Yao raised the bamboo stick in her hand, pretending to hit him again.

Seeing this, Xu Luo quickly stood up straight and replied loudly: "I know!!! Teacher Jiang!!"

"Hmm~ That's not bad."

Good attitude.

A gentleman's revenge is never too late.

One day he promised Luo that he would return the stick to her today, and then he would have to let her know why the flowers were so red!

……

Just as Xu Luo guessed, it rained in the middle of the night, and it was very heavy. The sound of raindrops hitting the glass outside the window woke him up.

Getting off the bed, Xu Luo was about to turn on the light when he found that the power was out at home. It must have been thunder, and then the line was short-circuited.

"It's really troublesome."

Seeing that he couldn't turn on the light, Xu Luo had to use the light from lightning to walk to the desk cabinet, open the drawer and fumble to find the flashlight.

"I remember there were candles at home..."

Turning on the flashlight, the originally dark room suddenly became brighter. After finding and putting on the slippers that he had kicked under the bed, Xu Luo prepared to go to the living room to look for candles.

As soon as he opened the door to the bedroom, he saw Jiang Yao standing in front of his door holding a pillow. The girl was wearing a light blue nightgown, and her long hair was slightly messy. Her hands were raised when the door opened. In front of him, it looked like he was knocking on the door.

When their eyes met, Jiang Yao felt a little embarrassed and slowly retracted her hand.

"Why are you here?"

In order to prevent hurting the girl's eyes, Xu Luo lowered the brightness of the flashlight and asked doubtfully.

Although she was very scared, Jiang Yao still pretended to be calm and said: "Well... there is a power outage at home, I'm looking for a candle."

However, the trembling voice was somewhat of a show off.

The girl's weak posture is unexpectedly cute. I didn't expect this arrogant girl to have such a side that makes me pity her.

Although the Xu family is in Suifeng City, it is a village in the city. Once there is a power outage, the surroundings will be completely dark, and there will be no street lights or anything like that.

Xu Luo smiled, bent down slightly, and looked at her teasingly, "Did you find a candle in my room?"

"Hmm~"

Hearing this, Jiang Yao avoided his sight in a panic, not knowing what to say for a while.

"You're not... afraid of the dark, are you?"

"It's... I'm not afraid of the dark!"

"Boom~"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deafening thunder outside the house, because the window in the living room was not closed tightly before going to bed. As the rain gradually increased, the window was scraped open with a loud bang, and at the same time, The cool spring breeze flowed into the house, making a whistling sound.

"what!!!"

The girl exclaimed, then involuntarily took a step forward and threw herself straight into Xu Luo's arms. A pair of arms wrapped tightly around his back, her whole body trembling.

Xu Luo's body froze due to the large area of ​​contact between his limbs. He lost his grip on the flashlight and fell to the ground. The head of the flashlight turned and illuminated the direction of the bedroom.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment. After a brief blur, Xu Luo reacted first and reached out to pat Jiang Yao's back.

"Are you okay?"

The girl neither spoke nor moved, she just kept her current movements and buried her face in his chest.

The reserved girl didn't know what to say now. She was still saying that she wasn't afraid of the dark, and now she did something like this. She was so embarrassed! ! !

Ahhhhh! ! ! !

Just pretend to be dead, escaping may be useless, but escaping is really comfortable.

Jiang Yao's own ostrich tactic is: as long as she doesn't speak, she won't be embarrassed.

"You..." Xu Luo figured it out. This girl was waiting for him to step down.

As expected, he was really both proud and arrogant.

He leaned close to the girl's ear and gently reminded: "Ahem...I'll close my eyes now, you can move secretly~"

Jiang Yao moved her head. In the darkness, the little girl raised her face. Her eyes were like stars in the dark night. She bit her lip and said, "Then... you have to forget everything about what happened just now..."

Xu Luo smiled silently, probably because she was so cute. He reached out and gently rubbed her head, and said lovingly: "I know~"

"Uh~ Bad guy..."

Feeling the young man's movements, Jiang Yao's heartbeat skipped a beat for a moment, and then began to accelerate crazily, almost reaching her throat.

"Then I close my eyes..."

"Um……"

As he spoke, Xu Luo closed his eyes and slowly let go of his hand. Then he felt the girl's warm body quickly leave his embrace, and several messy footsteps came to his ears.

After about a few seconds, Jiang Yao said, "Okay, you can open your eyes."

Hearing this, Xu Luo opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yao standing in front of him, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Xu Luo touched his nose and suggested, "Let's go find a candle first."

"oh oh…"

……

A power outage is an emergency.

The family didn't have a way to deal with it. Fortunately, an old man named Xu passed away some time ago. Xu's father took some candles from there. Although this is very bad, it was also thanks to the old man.

Funerals don't always have very thick candles. For example, Xu's father only brought three small candles. Judging from their appearance, they might not last until dawn.

In order to save candles, neither of them went back to the room. Instead, they lit a candle in the living room on the third floor, which was at the same table where they usually made up their classes. The two of them sat on the sofa together, but three bodies apart. .

Jiang Yao seemed to have forgotten what happened just now. She transformed into a literary girl, holding an extracurricular reading and reading it with relish. She was quiet and beautiful. This guy really loved reading.

As for Xu Luo, he was holding a small notebook and silently thinking about some business plans. He had to consider everything in place before starting business. Xu Luo did not tell anyone about starting a business. After all, he When a 15-year-old boy says he wants to start a business, most people won’t believe him.

The boy and girl were wrapped in the dim candlelight. From time to time in the living room on the third floor, the sound of pencils rubbing against paper and the sound of turning pages could be heard, which was in sharp contrast with the pounding rain outside, which made it particularly special. Quiet.

……

About ten o'clock,

The rain outside the house showed no signs of abating, and was even getting worse.

Feeling a little hungry, Xu Luo stood up.

As soon as she stood up, Jiang Yao, who was still concentrating on reading, quickly raised her little ears. Although her pair of delicate almond eyes were still looking at the book in her hand, her peripheral vision always shrouded the young man.

She was afraid that Xu Luo would be too far away from her and would be scared to be alone in the living room.

Xu Luo was amused by her reaction. The more she looked at Jiang Yao, the more she felt she was cute, so cute that she wanted to be bullied.

"Okay, I'm just going to the second floor to make something to eat, and I'll be back in a while~"

Seeing him speaking, Jiang Yao closed her book and turned around to look at him openly.

"I...actually I'm not afraid of the dark, really."

Xu Luo (putting his hand on his forehead) said silently in his heart: Do you think I believe it? ? ?

"Then I'm going down."

"Well~I...I want to go too."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Jiang Yao quickly jumped off the sofa and put on her slippers.

This... seems to be an underestimation of this girl's fear of black people.

"Okay then, take the candle and follow me downstairs. We will have dinner on the second floor in a while."

"Ah."

Immediately afterwards, the two held candles and walked along the stairs to the second floor.

Walking to the kitchen, Xu Luo asked Jiang Yao to put the candle on the edge of the window, then skillfully turned on the gas stove and started boiling water.

"what are you going to do?"

"Well, let's just cook some noodles and then make a marinade."

"Oh,"

The girl stopped talking. She just leaned against the door frame of the kitchen and quietly observed the boy cooking. How did you say that?

It turns out that the boys who work are really attractive.
