gentle fairy tale

This time back to Mingchuan, Yu Mian made an appointment with friends.

In the past three years, except for meeting Tao Rang twice, she almost never came back to see them, and was scolded many times, saying that she had no conscience.

As usual, it was at the hot pot restaurant near the attached high school, at the time when the students were out of school.The store is full of middle school students in school uniforms, which makes Yu Mian feel a little dazed, thinking of the good times in the youthful years.

As soon as Liang Zhixing sat down, he severely criticized and educated Yu Mian: "Tell me about you, and you ran out when you disagreed. What do you want to do? Are you playing the trick of running away from home? Thanks to my old father You have broken your heart, but you are fine, with such a big heart, you are jumping around the world."

Yu Mian poured him a glass of juice: "Okay, okay, calm down."

It's also rare for Jing Zhiyi to be on the same side as him: "That is, how many three years are there in life, and the next three years..."

Yu Mian brought the glass of fruit juice in front of her, and tried to change the subject: "In the next three years, your baby will be able to make soy sauce?"

Jing Zhiyi blushed, "Fuck you."

Yu Mian smiled slightly, looked at Tao Rang next to him, fortunately, he didn't mean to criticize and educate her.

Tao Rang has already returned to China. After graduating from a bachelor's degree, he did not pursue a master's degree, but chose to join a non-governmental voluntary organization.He was wearing an azure shirt, warm and light, still sitting on the sidelines without speaking, only smiling slightly, as if he was still the silent young man back then.

Yu Mian finally poured juice for him: "Thank you, Tao Rang. Here is a toast to you."

At that time, she had just left the country, and she fell into a brief daze until she heard that Tao Rang was also abroad, and heard his arrangements and plans, and gradually gained some direction in her heart.

The world is so vast, what she wants to know and see will gradually emerge in time.

Rather than staying where you are, be a person who walks on the road.

Tao Rang turned his head and smiled: "Thank me for what? Thank you for letting me dove. Is there no one left?"

Yu Mian pursed her lips in embarrassment and smiled: "Yes, yes, I didn't plan it well at the time, thank you for giving me the bottom line."

Tao Rang picked up the cup and touched her lightly, his voice was as clear as broken ice: "No thanks."

Jing Zhiyi had just finished fighting with Liang Zhixing under the table, and stopped playing, and asked her seriously: "Mian, how long will you stay when you come back this time?"

Yu Mian turned her head and thought for a while: "Actually, I haven't thought about it yet. This time I came back on a whim. In fact, there are still some tasks that have not been completed. I will probably finish the work in July, and I will come back to stay longer. 7 I will go to England at the end of the month."

Jing Zhiyi nodded, and was about to ask something, but thought of the two boys beside her, so she stopped again: "Let's go to the river beach for a walk."

Yu Mian looked at the time: "It's still early, let's go."

The weather is getting warmer every day, and there are many people walking on the river beach, talking in twos and threes.

Jing Zhiyi pulled Yu Mian to the front, and asked her in a low voice, "How are you and Aunt Pei doing?"

Yu Mian blushed: "How do you know..."

"Say it!"

"……Nothing special."

None of them said much or asked much.It's like she didn't go out for three years, but just went out for one day, and they talked as usual when they got home, only time flowed quietly, and nothing changed.

Even the kiss between the eyebrows...was gentle and restrained, without a trace of lust.

Jing Zhiyi sighed a little helplessly: "You, it's useless. If I were you, I'd just give some medicine, and just roll the sheets once. I assure you, she will definitely chase you and take responsibility, and she probably doesn't even want to." let you go."

Yu Mian looked at her with wide eyes: "Zhiyi!"

Jing Zhiyi turned her head: "Ahem, I'm just joking."

Although that was how she tricked some awkward and arrogant fool back then.

The tips of Yu Mian's ears were also hot, and she even thought about what she said subconsciously, and suddenly felt that her throat was a little dry.But this thought only lasted for a few seconds before she drove it away from her mind... What are you thinking, this is Aunt Pei who grew up with her, how could she treat her...

She looked at Jiang Mian thoughtfully in a daze, until the phone vibrated in her pocket, she stopped and looked, it was Pei Songxi's call.

"Mianmian, are you home?"

"No. Here in Jiangtan, I'm going to go back later."

"It's a bit late, should I come pick you up?"

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Hanging up the phone, Yu Mian pulled Jing Zhiyi back, the two boys walked a little slower than them, and landed not far away: "Going back?"

Yu Mian nodded: "I'm going home."

"Okay, let's go back together then."

After getting on the road, Yu Mian realized that Pei Songxi's car was just across the road, and it looked like he had been waiting for a while.She was still holding the cream cone that Liang Zhixing had just bought, and she hadn't eaten a bite yet. In order to run over, she handed it to Tao Rang: "Please, help me solve it."

Tao Rang was slightly startled, and nodded after a while.

After Yu Mian bid farewell to her friends, she ran to the opposite side of the road, waved to them before getting into the car, and then opened the car door and got in.

The car window on Pei Songxi's side was also ajar. She had seen and recognized all these children.She nodded slightly towards them, her eyes flicked over the cone in Tao Rang's hand, she quickly rolled up the window, started the car, and left.

Liang Zhixing was taking a taxi at the intersection, Jing Zhiyi took a step back, and asked Tao Rang softly, "Are you going to...stand in place for the rest of your life?"

Tao Rang was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and looked at the melting cone in his hand: "Yes. I used to want...to be her escape route. At that time, she was alone abroad. But now, she no longer needs me , I’ll just watch quietly like this.”

Jing Zhiyi frowned slightly: "But she will never know."

Tao Rang smiled softly, his voice seemed to melt into the night wind: "She doesn't need to know."

Without opening my mouth, the still water flows deep.

He just knows it.

On the way back driving, at the interval of the red light, Yu Mian turned her head and quietly looked at Pei Songxi, looked at her repeatedly for a long time, and then said softly: "I accidentally played late today..."

Pei Songxi was still thinking about the cream cone just now, and only recovered after hearing her words: "Well, it's okay."

But Yu Mian looked at her in disbelief, seeing her jaw line was tense, and her beautifully lined lips were also pursed into a thin line, as if she was thinking about something and not very emotional.

Could it be jealous?

This idea popped up gently in her mind, but she rejected it again, probably not.

Aunt Pei knew that she and Tao Rang had been good friends for many years and they often played together, so there was no misunderstanding.

But she also said that she was not angry because she came home too late, so why?

Yu Mian thought all the way but couldn't think of an answer.When she got home, Pei Songxi asked her to take a bath first. She took two steps, then turned around and held her hand, and asked openly, "Are you unhappy? It's because I played too much outside tonight." Is it too late to be unsafe?"

Pei Songxi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that her emotions were not well hidden. She gently pulled her hand out of her palm, and lowered her voice a little: "...I'm sorry, Mianmian."

Yu Mian blinked her eyes: "Why do you say I'm sorry. If you are unhappy, I should coax you."

Pei Songxi smiled slowly: "Okay, I'm not unhappy. I thought it was a bit late just now. Go take a bath, it's getting late."

Yu Mian grabbed the corner of her clothes and shook: "Okay, I'll take a shower. But you're not happy tonight, I'll come to coax you later."

Pei Songxi was taken aback by what she said, and coaxed her...

She blushed slowly, and lowered her head uncomfortably under the light: "Well, go."

Yu Mian went back to the room to take a shower, and she also went back to the room, took a quick shower, and changed into her nightgown.

She opened the window, and the street lights in the distance were shaking, and the cool and gentle evening wind blew in with the fragrance of flowers. It was the roses downstairs that bloomed, warm and fragrant.

"Tuk Tuk."

Yu Mian knocked on the door outside: "Aunt Pei?"

Pei Songxi was inexplicably nervous: "Come in, Mianmian."

Yu Mian pushed the door open with her elbow, put two glasses of milk in her hand, put them on the table, looked at her and smiled: "I just came after taking a shower, have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

Pei Songxi shook his head: "I just finished taking a shower too... I didn't wait for you all the time."

Yu Mian raised her eyebrows slightly, and handed the cup to her lips: "Have a glass of milk."

Pei Songxi smiled, drank a glass of warm milk in one gulp, and turned the empty glass back to her: "It's over."

Yu Mian nodded: "Very good."

Pei Songxi's cheeks were burned by what she said, and she tapped her forehead with her fingertips: "It's not big..."

While she was talking, she suddenly froze. She used to say that when Yu Mian was mischievous, but now it seems that she can't say that.Although she is older than her, in the current relationship...she can't say that anymore.

Yu Mian looked up at her, held her fingertips instead, and pulled her to the side of the tatami: "When did you buy it?"

Pei Songxi smiled helplessly: "I didn't buy it. Lin Mo bought it as a gift from him two years ago."

This younger brother thinks out of the box, often thinks of what is what, always jumps his feet when she is angry, but then turns around and buys some weird gifts for her.She didn't want to accept it, so he just rolled around and stayed here.

Yu Mian couldn't help laughing, but smiled and said softly: "Has it been two years... I don't even know."

Pei Songxi was startled: "Mianmian..."

Yu Mian had already sat down on the tatami, not far from the window, she smelled the faint fragrance of flowers in the air, and suppressed the sadness just now: "It's okay, I just remembered that I haven't seen Uncle Lin Mo for a long time. Come and sit down, too."

Pei Songxi also sat down. He originally wanted to sit opposite her, but after a second thought, he sat on the same side as her, very close to her.

Yu Mian felt the body temperature of the person behind him, and the heat seemed to be transmitted through the air, causing a slight shudder.She sat up straight in an instant: "Aunt Pei..."

"Ok?"

Pei Songxi's voice came from her ears, the tone was a little low, extremely mellow and gentle.

Yu Mian paused, then suddenly asked, "Where are those photos?"

She wanted to ask as soon as she got home, but she was a little hesitant. Just now she had a change of heart, thought of this matter, and asked outright.

Pei Songxi smiled: "Before, the corners were oxidized and turned yellow. I took it and asked someone to help coat it. I put it in a drawer and haven't had time to put it back."

"Then... now I want to see, can I?"

"Of course. But a thief stole a photo, when are you going to put it back?"

Yu Mian's ears burned, and he muttered softly: "How do you know... Could it be that it fell somewhere in the house?"

Pei Songxi turned sideways to pull the drawer: "If you don't take it, I won't show you these."

Yu Mian jumped off the tatami: "Pei Xixi, you've turned bad, and you're still threatening me."

Pei Songxi has already taken out the photos, holding a thick stack in his hand.She raised the end of her eyes slightly, and looked at her with a half-smile, with a doting smile flowing between her brows and eyes: "Well, I threatened you."

"……I'll get it!"

Yu Mian was dazzled by her smile, her heart was pounding, and she stepped on her shoes and ran out.

Pei Songxi pursed her lips and smiled: "Little thing."

She came back soon, holding a photo in her hand, and a small box, and she didn't know what was in it.

Pei Songxi didn't tease her anymore, and sat forward, his chin seemed to be on her shoulder: "Turn over here."

They were close together, very close, so close that Yu Mian could feel the air flow from her ears when she spoke, it was crisp and itchy.

Yu Mian flinched unconsciously, her small and pink earlobes were flushed red, and even the delicate down on her cheeks seemed to tremble slightly, uncontrollably leaning towards the person behind her.

This scene, in Pei Songxi's eyes, is a different kind of moving.

She curled her fingers slightly for a moment before making up her mind and slowly encircling her.She wrapped her in her arms, almost in a lover's gesture, and her voice gently knocked on her ear: "Turn over."

Yu Mian was embraced by her circling arms, as if stepping on a soft cloud at that moment, it took a while before she regained her senses: "...um."

The photo of them under the ginkgo tree, the moment when she danced in a red dress, the photo she secretly took of Pei Songxi when she was in middle school, the photo outside the hospital when she was sick for the first time, the moment when she smiled brightly at the airport... And, and The one she sent her is under the Buddha statue in the temple, she is looking at the moon in the wilderness, she is smiling and talking on the stage...

Countless fragments of time, frames of silhouettes of time.

For a while, neither of them spoke.

Until Yu Mian put down the photo, she said softly in the silence: "Aunt Pei, I miss you very much."

Pei Songxi also approached her ear: "I know. I know everything. "

She completely embraced her in her arms, rested her chin lightly on her shoulder, and her voice became low and deep: "I know everything, Mianmian."

Yu Mian raised her head slightly, her elegant and pleasant breath fell on her cheeks, and she was fascinated.

...I really want to hug her, I really want to kiss her.

She called her softly, with a hint of coquettish unconsciousness in her voice: "Aunt Pei. Aunt Pei. I thought...you don't want me anymore."

Pei Songxi was scratched by the girl's soft and gentle voice, and her voice became more gentle: "I don't, Mianmian..."

How could she not want her.

How could she not want her.

Yu Mian was surrounded by her from behind, and she almost wanted to snuggle into her arms. She smelled the good smell on her body, felt her body heat, and could see her bright red and full lips as soon as she raised her head. She stared at that place in a daze, but in the end she only said, "Then give me a hug."

Pei Songxi hummed lightly, and gradually tightened her hand: "Well... I'm here."

Their relationship was tested up and down the critical line, but they dared not take a step forward.

Yu Mian didn't dare, and neither did she.

But such a rare and precious thing, she is already very satisfied.

It's just that her eyes gradually fell on the girl's white and tender pear-like slender neck, but the color of her eyes gradually deepened a little, really resembling that cream cone... It makes people want to put it in their mouths and lick it. Take a bite.
