martyrdom

Coming out of Yuanfei's parents' house, Yu'er, who was granted an amnesty, even wished she could walk with a float.Since she came back secretly, she had to rush back. On the way from Yuan Fei to the airport, she almost became a chatterbox, non-stop discussing the grand occasion a few moments ago.

"My mother-in-law is so enthusiastic, she looks exactly like you when she smiles. No... it's you who really resemble her."

"Is that so..." Yuan Fei was a little absent-minded, and seemed unwilling to mention the meeting again.

"When my father-in-law tested me with those questions, I was really frightened. I was afraid that I would not be able to answer them."

"My dad is like that, just ignore him."

Yu'er noticed that she was not in a good mood, hugged her arm, and said softly: "You don't even praise me, you performed so well."

Yuan Fei glanced at her and smiled faintly: "I teach well."

In a blink of an eye, we were separated again.The airport has now successfully ranked first among Yuan Fei's least favorite places.The farewell kiss in the waiting hall was over, Yu'er was still hugged tightly by her and couldn't bear to let go, so she was also happy to cling to this embrace for a while longer, until the broadcast urged her to enter the security check.

"Will your family blame you when you go back?" Yuan Fei helped her carry her backpack, and began to worry about her situation after she left.

Yu'er blinked playfully: "What can you do to me?"

Yuan Fei glanced at her with a smile, lowered her head and took off the platinum bracelet she wore on her hand before the last parting: "I'd better return this to you, so as not to be found by your family and have to question you again."

The shining bracelet returned to the main wrist, bright and dazzling as before.Yuan Fei put on the bracelet for her, then put her white and slender wrist to her lips for a light kiss, and then reluctantly let go.

He took out the small medicine bottle that had been entangled for a long time from his pocket and handed it over, his gaze fell on Yu'er's slender legs wrapped in trousers again: "That... If it still hurts, you can apply some."

As expected, Yu'er blushed again, took it over without saying a word and put it on, cleared her throat and said, "Then I'm leaving?"

"Yeah." Yuan Fei still had a smile on her face, with a faint, reassuring arc.

Yu'er walked two steps away, then turned around and told her: "Don't stay at home all the time, go out for a walk more often."

"Understood." The eye sockets were sore, maybe no matter how many times I have experienced parting, I will never be able to get used to this kind of pain that I can't ask for.

Yu'er smiled sweetly at her and waved her hand, but her back finally disappeared from sight.Yuan Fei silently raised her hand and rubbed the corner of her eyes, stood there for a while, then turned and left.

Walking out of the airport, the originally gray and white winter sky has been colored.The dark blue and orange are intertwined in the vast sky, which is neither bright in the daytime nor soft in the night, and people can't help shaking their heads and sighing.

On the way home, the car began to fear difficulties again for some reason.The car drove into the university area, but subconsciously walked away from home at a fork in the road, and finally came to the unnamed bookstore along the same familiar route.

It's the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it's night, so the probability of the bookstore opening is too small.I was just here to try my luck and pass the time, but I didn't expect to drive to the intersection of the street and look at the shops on the whole street, only the bookstore was brightly lit.

The surprise was more than that, Yuan Fei parked the car and walked in, and found that there were more idlers like her in Nian Xia than usual.The reading area on the second floor is almost full, with desk lamps emitting soft light, and the pleasant sound of flipping books fills the ears.She picked a book at random and sat down, enjoying the rare reading time.

The sentences in the travel notes in her hand were precise, she turned a few pages, but her thoughts gradually drifted away.Thinking that Yu'er's evidence had been sent to Bai Yi and received great praise, he also thought that the first step of publicizing the relationship had been successfully completed, and the second step should also be stepped up.In order not to disturb Bai Yi's plan, she couldn't directly announce their relationship to the world, she had to find another way.

Suddenly a cup of coffee appeared in hand, it was steaming hot in a paper cup.A cold voice said lightly: "You have read this page for a long time."

Yuan Fei raised her head in surprise, and she saw the girl who called herself Xiao Xinran.Dressed in impersonal, cold black, it doesn't match the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, but it complements her own temperament.The girl was also holding a cup of coffee, and she was standing by the table, looking at her quietly.

For some reason, seeing her at this time, Yuan Fei felt very happy.He gestured for the girl to sit down, then looked at the coffee in hand: "In the bookstore...is it okay?"

"I asked, yes."

Yuan Fei was not hypocritical, she nodded her thanks, took it over to warm her hands, and said with a light smile, "I was taken aback by your name when we met last time, so I forgot to ask carefully, is your name really Xiao Xinran?"

The girl looked at her inexplicably for a while, didn't say anything, reached out for a long time and took out an ID card and handed it to her: "It's absolutely true."

Yuan Fei stared at the genuinely fake name on the ID card, was stunned, and smiled relievedly: "It seems that you and I have a lot of predestined relationship."

The girl cherished her words like gold, she just curled the corners of her lips slightly, and didn't speak again.It was embarrassing, but Yuan Fei picked up the topic again: "I didn't expect to meet you at this time."

"You seemed to be in a good mood when you saw me."

"Yes, I'm very happy." Yuan Fei admitted generously, "A moment ago I was thinking about a difficult problem, but after you appeared, I solved it. I just don't know if you are willing to help me with this."

"What can I do for you?"

"As an insider, expose my relationship."

After a brief silence, the girl asked after thinking: "Is this the way you said last time, to protect important things?"

Yuan Fei nodded without explaining too much.She almost subconsciously regarded the girl across from her as Xiao Xinran who was clever and strategizing in her novels, so she always expected the other party to see the subtleties and give her a satisfactory answer.

The girl did not disappoint her: "If you have thought it over, I am willing to help." After speaking, she turned on the phone, found two photos, and handed them to Yuan Fei.

The two photos were secretly photographed by the girl after meeting in the bookstore last time.In the first picture, she and Yu'er were sitting opposite each other, covering Yu'er's mouth with her hands, with an intimate posture, and the eyes that looked at each other were full of joy and love.The second photo is a snapshot of Yu Er pulling her up, the two palms touching, but not as explicit and ambiguous as the first photo.

Yuan Fei was very surprised, but heard the girl explain: "These photos were taken out of selfishness not wanting to miss the beautiful scene, not to harm you and her. If you want to expose, these two photos may come in handy."

She and Yu'er have been together for so long, but they don't even have a group photo. They were still troubled by the exposure, but they didn't expect the girl to be as powerful as Xiao Xinran in her writing.She glanced at the girl appreciatively, took the mobile phone and zoomed in on the two photos several times, and said carefully, "Use the second one."

The girl has a different opinion: "In the first picture, half of her face is covered by you, which seems to be more conducive to protecting her. The second picture is not intimate enough, so it is hard to be convincing." He is not stingy with words, precise in words, and has a thoughtful understanding of human relationships beyond his age.

Yuan Fei's gaze shifted from the photo to the girl, and she looked at it for a moment, thoughtful.

Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, the girl asked again: "What do you think?"

"Just the first one."

After talking about how and when to expose, the girl fell silent again.Yuan Fei finally couldn't help being curious, and asked a personal question: "How old are you?"

The tone of asking the child made the girl blush, as if she was embarrassed by her young age: "14 years old."

Seeing her shy look, Yuan Fei felt very cute, and her tone became more friendly and friendly like talking to a child: "You are so young, and the family can rest assured that you will come out by yourself?"

……so small.The girl finally showed a little helplessness on her expressionless face, avoiding the first half of the sentence, and directly answered the second half: "I didn't come out by myself." She gestured around with her eyes.

Yuan Fei has always been very sensitive to stares, in fact, she has long noticed that there are a few people around who are always looking at them.I thought it was simply curiosity or recognition of her identity, but now it seems that those men are dressed in similar styles, and they are all tall and tall. They really look like bodyguards or something.

It's just a bookstore, so many people protect it.This made Yuan Fei couldn't help sighing.

The girl who has always been reticent, because of embarrassment, actually took the initiative to change the subject: "...Why didn't she come with you?"

"Her family is not here, and she went back to celebrate the New Year." Yuan Fei replied without reservation.

The girl raised her eyebrows, and joked: "I thought, just like last time, they went to provide convenience for me."

"...By the way, your photography skills are pretty good."

The abrupt change of subject made the girl look at her with a playful smile for a long time before she said unhurriedly, "It's you and her good looks that enhance the effect of the photo."

"...that's absurd."

After the chat was over and the girl left, Yuan Fei touched her slightly warm cheek and sighed.Why is it that the people she meets are darker than the other, and there is always a way to make her blush with just a few words.

When Yu'er came back, she decided to ask for advice.

The next day, the third day of the first lunar month.In the days when it is inappropriate to go out for New Year's greetings, Yuan Fei's exposure of Lily's love affair caused a lot of trouble in the literary circle.The cell phone jingled endlessly, mostly from people who knew each other, and it was nothing more than confirming the authenticity of the news to her.She turned off the sound in annoyance, did not read the gossip on the Internet, and suddenly admired the girl's decision.Fortunately, Yu'er's face was not exposed, so that she would not be tired of being harassed thousands of miles away.

Thinking of Yu'er, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized that she had missed a very important step.She forgot to inform Yu'er about exposing the relationship.

Previously, Yu'er's support for her was limited to using Bai Yi's power to fight back against Kang Yu, but she never discussed this matter.Meeting her parents is one thing, but for Yu'er's family, their affairs are obviously not suitable to be explained.On the one hand, Yu'er is still young after all, on the other hand, the matter of failing this semester has not yet passed, and the timing seems to be wrong.Although the photo covered Yu'er's face, how could the family not recognize her?

The surging fear instantly made her break out in a cold sweat, but it wasn't just because of these reasons.Some things are indeed fate, they will happen no matter what, and they cannot be avoided.What scared her the most was Yu'er's reaction next.

Dial Yu Er's phone, the waiting process is so long.The bell only rang two or three times, but she almost lived like a year.

There was a brief noise on the phone, and the noise was fading away, probably because Yu'er was moving away from the center of the crowd.She said cautiously: "I... Did I bother you?"

Yu'er chuckled lightly: "What's the matter? He suddenly became polite."

It seems that they don't know yet.Yuan Fei bit her lip, but suddenly she didn't know how to speak, and even came up with the idea of ​​continuing to hide it, so she could delay it for a while.

But obviously, when Yu'er finds out by herself, the discord between the two will only deepen.

Sighing, and just about to confess, Yu'er first explained: "I didn't bother you, my sister and Yue'er were messing around there. They stayed at my house for the past two days."

"……That's good."

"My sister showed me a photo just now, and said that it has spread in the circle. I wanted to call you to ask what's the matter with you, but I didn't expect you to call first." Yu'er's tone did not contain anger, Just a little puzzled, "Who broke the news? And deliberately took such an ambiguous photo."

Yuan Fei suddenly realized that from Yu'er's point of view, this matter had nothing to do with her, it was just an unintentional sneak shot by a good gossip.My previous worries and fears were superfluous.

"Your family...have you seen it?"

"Only my sister saw it. My parents don't pay attention to these things, and others may not recognize me. Fortunately, the sneak photographer has a conscience and didn't expose me."

A boulder fell to the ground in Yuan Fei's heart.The girl really helped her a lot this time.She lost her impatience in this matter, and it was all because of the girl's thoughtful consideration that she did not cause irreparable damage to the relationship between herself and Yu'er.

Although there were no serious consequences, Yuan Fei still planned to confess, not to leave any trace of estrangement between them: "Actually, I asked someone to expose it. I met the last time at the bookstore last night...Xiao Xinran, She just happened to take this photo again, so she came up with this idea. I made my own decision on this matter, and I forgot to discuss it with you, sorry."

"Huh?" Yu'er uttered an inexplicable questioning syllable, which made her heart suddenly rise to her throat.She can almost predict whether it will be anger and accusation or disappointment and resentment next.

"That girl's name is really Xiao Xinran?"

The author has something to say:

Sister Xiao Yu continues to make guest appearances...

When two subjects meet, there must be an attack. Obviously, the 14-year-old sister Xiao Yu won.

And there is a reason for Yuan Fei's impatience and self-assertion. The human design will not collapse, and he will be calm and calm.
