gentle fairy tale

Yu Mian hasn't been to Pei Songxi's room for a long time.

It seems that nothing has changed here, even the cashmere blanket that Aunt Pei handed her before was placed in the previous place, she couldn't help but touch it, it was still soft and warm.

Same as Aunt Pei.

Pei Songxi told her to take a bath first, and then she took a bath. When both of them lay down, the hour hand had already pointed to two o'clock.

The lights were off, it was bright outside and the room wasn't too dark.

There was a faint smell of firecrackers in the air, Yu Mian didn't like this smell, so she leaned closer to Pei Songxi.Until I smell the familiar cold woody fragrance... like cedar mixed with fir, clean and peaceful.

She was still very excited and couldn't sleep well: "Aunt Pei, Xiaoyan said she would give me a bottle of perfume. Guess what it smells like?"

Pei Songxi closed his eyes: "What does it taste like?"

"Orange flavor!"

Pei Songxi snorted: "It seems that Xiaoyan knows you very well, since she was a child, she said that she is a little orange that no one wants."

Yu Mian hummed dissatisfied: "No way. I have someone who wants it."

"Sleeping, Mianmian."

"Oh."

She agreed with her mouth, but she was not obedient at all in her actions. She quietly tugged at the corner of Pei Songxi's clothes. Seeing that she didn't respond, she boldly turned over and hugged her: "Aunt Pei, I want to sleep with you in my arms." !"

Pei Songxi felt drowsy just now, and she immediately woke up when she made a fuss, a little helpless: "Mianmian...it's late, don't make trouble. Didn't you say that we have to go for a run in the morning?"

Yu Mian hugged her tightly: "But I want to hug you. Go to sleep! I won't interfere with you!"

After growing up, Aunt Pei seldom hugged her anymore, maybe because she thought she was not as cute as when she was a child.

Pei Songxi wanted to push her, so he raised his hand, and it took a long time before he dropped it, and patted the girl on the shoulder: "Mianmian, you're a little unreasonable now."

She hugged her, how could she tell her to sleep?

"I'm going to be unreasonable, the first day of the new year, this year is the only time!"

The more Yu Mian talked, the more she refused to let go, and rubbed her arm lightly. When Pei Songxi turned around and wanted to talk to her, she not only didn't let go, but leaned closer to her arms, like a little hamster digging a burrow: "Don't be harsh on me, okay, just like me, a little orange that no one loves and loves, I'll be happy for a while!"

Pei Songxi was amused by her, and found that she was very playful, and he didn't really blame her. He wanted to pamper her for a while, but she... was shaking in her arms... She had to hold down her little head : "Mianmian!"

Yu Mian really didn't move, she subconsciously wanted to raise her head to talk to Pei Songxi...but only then did she realize...a little embarrassing.

She was... so close.

Aunt Pei is not the same as me...

It's just... well, it's huge.

Pei Songxi also realized this, and while she was not moving, she immediately turned over and lay down, rubbing between her eyebrows: "I'm sleepy, Mianmian."

Yu Mian was stunned for a while, then blinked, not daring to make trouble anymore: "Okay, you can rest."

She finally lay down safely, she might be too happy tonight.

In the past, after the New Year's Eve dinner, when Aunt Pei returned to her room, she could only do her homework, occasionally staring at the lights of Wanjia outside the window in a daze.

But not this year.She likes Brother Zhiyuan, Uncle Lin Mo, and Aunt Pei... It was the first time that the New Year was so lively and happy, she was so happy.

"Aunt Pei, are you angry?"

"No."

"Okay, tell me if you're angry."

"Not angry, it doesn't matter."

Pei Songxi adjusted her tone, she seldom saw Yu Mian arguing with her, she cherished it in her heart, but...she just felt that Mian Mian should not be as close and dependent on her as before when she grew up.

Yu Mian was lying flat, couldn't help looking down, and suddenly felt emotional: "Lie down...it's really flat...but Aunt Pei, you are different."

Aunt Pei is really different from her, it's obvious...

Pei Songxi sighed softly from the bottom of her heart, stretched out her hand helplessly, tapped her lips lightly with her fingertips, and she left immediately: "Shh, sleep. Good night."

Yu Mian blinked: "Okay. Good night."

After this night, Pei Songxi never let Yu Mian come to her room to spend the night.

Even during the few days when he stayed at Pei's house during the Spring Festival, Pei Songxi never opened the door for her, but just stayed with her in her room, waiting for her to fall asleep.

Yu Mian blamed herself, she really regretted it, it must have been too long that night, so Aunt Pei was somewhat angry.

She was depressed for several days, and it wasn't until Pei Songxi took her back to their own home on the third day of junior high that she became happy again.

In the evening, Aunt Zhao invited her to Xu's house for dinner. She and Xu Xiaoyan hadn't seen each other for several days, and they chatted happily for several hours.She showed Xu Xiaoyan the drafts of her holiday paintings, and Xu Xiaoyan enthusiastically continued to show her Amway TV series.

"This, this! The male coach is miserable! You really want to see it!"

Yu Mian looked at the TV screen: "I'll watch this! I don't think it looks good. I watched it with Aunt Pei the other day, and she wasn't interested either. She wanted to watch the news channel."

Xu Xiaoyan was stunned: "Are you watching idol dramas with your elders? That... you won't see the kiss scene, right?"

Yu Mian nodded: "Yeah, I saw it. I really think it's weird, why do you say that the two of you hugged each other for so long?"

Xu Xiaoyan took a breath: "...Did you watch it with your Aunt Pei?"

"Well, what happened?"

Xu Xiaoyan: "..."

She doesn't dare to watch idol dramas with her parents, okay?

Oh my god, this silly girlfriend, this must be so embarrassing!But maybe...Yu Mian's situation is different from hers, anyway, she dare not watch a kissing scene with her parents!

But Yu Mian had a frank and calm face: "Xiaoyan, why are you looking at me like that?"

Xu Xiaoyan tapped her on the head: "It's over, your brain must be full of wisdom, and you can't shake the ocean of love."

Yu Mian frowned in confusion: "That's right... I don't know what love is, and I don't want love."

love……

What is love?

She didn't understand, and didn't want to think about it, she continued to chat with Xu Xiaoyan about some happy things during the holidays, until Pei Songxi came to pick her up and brought Xu Xiaoyan a New Year's gift.

Xu Xiaoyan said thank you a few times in surprise, and happily wanted to open the gift box on the spot, but was stopped by her father.

Xu Yang was a little flattered: "President Pei... just play with the children, why don't you bring gifts to the door, no need."

He has business cooperation with Pei's company, and he naturally knew that the young woman in his thirties had a reputation for being aggressive and unkind in the workplace, so he didn't expect her to bring gifts to Xiaoyan.

Zhao Ruo patted her husband in disgust: "Go, go, why are you so polite."

She has met Pei Songxi many times, sometimes at the parents' meeting, and sometimes if someone's family has something to do, they will trouble the other family to bring the child back smoothly. The two families are quite close, but Xu Yang is not at home often, so I don't know much about it. .

Pei Songxi smiled gently: "Mr. Xu is too polite, Mianmian and Xiaoyan are good friends. Before, Xiaoyan always brought gifts to Mianmian, and now I should return the gift."

Xu Xiaoyan chimed in from the side: "Yes! Mianmian and I are very good friends! Thank you Pei... hey, can I call you aunt or sister?"

Mianmian said that Auntie Pei is 30 years old, and she should be called Auntie according to Mianmian's seniority, but they are also in their teens, in fact, they can be called sisters!

Besides, she looks so good, as if she has never changed in all these years.

Zhao Ruo scolded with a smile: "It's not big or small."

Pei Songxi held Yu Mian's shoulders: "It's okay, the child said some jokes. Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xu, Xiaoyan, let's go first."

Yu Mian waved to Xu Xiaoyan: "Xiaoyan, I'm leaving!"

"Yeah! Be careful on the road, Mianmian!"

"Got it! It's very close, just a few steps away, good night!"

After leaving Xu's house, Yu Mian realized that it was already dark, so it's no wonder that Aunt Pei came to pick her up.

Snow was falling in the sky, and they walked under the street lamps, stepping on several rows of deep and shallow footprints.

Pei Songxi has very few demands on her, but she will tell her to go home in time after school, to say hello to her before going out to play with friends, and not to wander around alone after dark.She is very concerned about safety issues, but Yu Mian never finds her annoying, or thinks that her elders are too controlling like other students... On the contrary, she knows that this is a sign that Aunt Pei cares about her.

Although she no longer knows who her parents are, and she will feel lost when she sees their family joking when they are playing in other people's homes, but this negative emotion is very short-lived and fleeting, and has never really affected her.

Because someone will care about her.

Thinking of this, Yu Mian hugged Pei Songxi's arm tightly, feeling peaceful and satisfied.

Pei Songxi was also a little lost in thought.

When she thought of the happy and harmonious atmosphere of the Xu family just now, she always felt that she owed Mianmian something... Sigh, but there are some things that she can't give.

After arriving home a few minutes later, Pei Songxi opened the door and turned on the chandelier in the living room. The warm orange light instantly illuminated the whole house, creating a quiet and peaceful winter night.

Yu Mian cheered and threw herself on the sofa: "Pei Songxi and Mianmian's home is the best home in the world!"

Pei Songxi didn't know why she suddenly felt it, and asked her curiously: "Why do you say that, Xiaoyan's parents are very nice, isn't her family not good?"

Yu Mian smiled and shook her head: "Of course her home is fine. But it's not my home, I just like our home. I haven't been back for several days! I can sleep in my own room tonight, and I'm sure I'll sleep very soundly !"

She has always been a child who loves her family, and she feels that nowhere is good, only her own home is the best.

Pei Songxi took off his coat, hung it on the coat rack, and talked to her: "Maybe I'm a bit of a bedbug. But you should go to bed early. You've been sleeping late these days. I put water in the bathroom for you." , go take a shower."

Yu Mian hummed, but her eyes fixed on her.

Pei Songxi is wearing a white coat today, with a black sweater and an emerald dress inside. The simple and clean color scheme is very eye-catching.

She lowered her head slightly, patting the snowflakes on her coat and hat, two strands of slightly curly hair hanging from her temples, matching the graceful line of her jaw, her silhouette was clean and gentle.From the slender neck down... is the beautiful arc and slim curve of a mature woman, which looks extraordinarily beautiful under the warm orange light.

Yu Mian looked at the woman under the light, as if she was looking at a beautiful world that did not belong to her.

She subconsciously thought of New Year's Eve... The arc she saw was beautiful and moving.

Yu Mian quietly blushed.

... I don't know if I will become like this in the future.
