brand on heart

After what happened that day, Jiang Keqing made a special lunch for Meng Yun to bring to Shi Yan to express his gratitude.

Meng Yun was no longer as cold and lukewarm to him as before, and always seemed to start to talk to him or teach him something through something.

The relationship between the two of them now can be regarded as becoming friends beyond the relationship of classmates.

This was an unexpected harvest, and Shi Yan was flattered.

Shi Yan doesn't know when the wishful thinking about him in her heart will be completely extinguished, but she just thinks that it's not bad to be friends like this.

On Saturday, I went to visit grandma on the island as usual, and grandma suddenly mentioned that Mu Qing called to greet her from time to time, and often sent people to deliver nutritional supplements, and asked him to tell Mu Qing that there was no need to spend money, and that she was living well in the nursing home.

Shi Yan originally thought that giving her grandma a mobile phone number was just perfunctory and not sincere, but she didn't want Mu Qing to be silently caring and taking care of his family.

Back in Binhai, Shi Yan told grandma what she said, but Mu Qing told him not to take it to heart.

How can you not take it to heart.

Grandma is my only relative in this world, but this person treats his family with the same heart he has for him.

On Sunday, I still sleep until noon, and I have to go out to watch a stage play with Lu Wanyu at three o'clock in the afternoon. After watching the stage play, I drop by his house for class until nine o'clock in the evening. Calculated, it will be almost six hours without seeing each other. .

After Shi Yan finished her meal, she went to the boxing room to find Mu Qing.

During the two days of the weekend, Mu Qing would only go out on Saturdays when Shiyan was away, and usually stay at home to spend time with him on Sundays.

Pushing open the door of the boxing room, hearing the sound of continuous beating, Shi Yan walked over and hugged the sandbag that was blown into the air, poking her head out from behind, "I'm going out at three o'clock, what do you want to eat tonight, I'll help You do well."

Mu Qing was bare upper body, sweating profusely, and his eight-pack abs were glistening under the sun. When he saw it, his face was embarrassed and his eyes flickered, but he didn't dare to put his eyes on him.

Stopping to tidy up the gloves, Mu Qing said, "No need to do it, I happen to have something to do at night, so I'm going to eat outside."

"Okay." Shi Yan nodded, let go of the sandbag and stepped aside to watch him continue to practice boxing.

Mu Qing suddenly took off his boxing gloves, took a pair of new gloves from the basket next to him and threw them to Shi Yan, "Do you want to try it?"

Shi Yan took it in her hand and shook her head hastily: "I can't, I majored in tennis in college, so I don't know how to punch."

Mu Qing looked at him and smiled, "You don't know how to do it, I'll just teach you how to do it."

"That's right." Shi Yan reacted slowly, but looking at the pair of heavy leather gloves in his hands, he asked strangely, "Why do you suddenly want to teach me how to punch?"

"It's not authentic boxing, it's Chinese Sanda, a self-defense move. This way you won't be beaten when someone bullies you in the future."

Mu Qing helped him put on the gloves and adjusted the wrist strap, asking, "Is it tight?"

Shi Yan shook her head, "Just right."

"I'll teach you the basic postures first, and you can practice by yourself later when you have time."

Shi Yan nodded and stood opposite him.

Mu Qing adjusted the sweatpants, revealing the mermaid line at the waist, Shi Yan was so frightened that she hurriedly looked away, and unconsciously raised her hand to fan the wind, "Huhu——, haha, the temperature is quite high today, don't you think it's a little hot ?"

Mu Qing looked at him clearly, and only after he stopped did he start talking about the basic stance and several basic boxing techniques.

After the demonstration, ask Shi Yan to stand up and help him correct his posture.

The college physical education elective is tennis, and I still have my sports skills, but they are not very developed.

The palm of the hand patted the inside of the leg without any reservations, Mu Qing bent down and said: "Slightly open the legs, turn the toes inward, keep the hands and arms close to the body, don't punch too far, so that you can return to the defense faster when you punch. "

"Oh, good." Shi Yan's body was extremely stiff, probably because the other party was Mu Qing, who had had closer physical contact with her, and unconsciously became shy.

After correcting his posture, Mu Qing stepped back and let him stand like that for 3 minutes, then changed to another direction.

After standing in different directions a few times, I began to teach him how to make a fist and how to punch.

"Straight punching is to hit someone with the face of the fist, not with the bones in the palm. Hitting someone with bones is easy to hurt yourself. The face of the fist can give the opponent the greatest blow and at the same time protect yourself. Don't lean forward when punching. "

For three hours, I only talked about standing posture, straight punches and the first set of basic legwork.

Boxing is two doors, all rely on legs to hit people.

Sanda is different from boxing in that it is more flexible and changeable, and it is most suitable for self-defense.

It was three o'clock to go out, and Mu Qing taught until 02:30, his face was dripping with sweat, and all the home clothes on his body were soaked in sweat.

After taking off the gloves, he looked back at Mu Qing, saw that his expression was calm, and asked in a low voice, "Am I stupid?"

Just now Mu Qing kept correcting his posture.

Mu Qing wiped the sweat off his body with a towel, and raised his eyebrows, "Beginners are like this. They don't know how to control their bodies, so don't worry about it."

After a set of exercises, Shi Yan's face was flushed by the heat, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and his eyebrows became more and more watery and handsome. Mu Qing put down the towel and scooped him up with his long hands, pulled him into his arms, and raised his hand to touch his lips, "Your body is very stiff. Yes, do more stretching exercises."

"Why, how to do it?" Shi Yan had long been fascinated by his inverted triangle figure, and now he could only lower his head and lean over to tease him intimately.

Mu Qing smiled, tilted her head and whispered in his ear: "For example, do more postures on the bed, lift your legs from behind, sit up with your legs split, or lean on the wall and split your legs, etc. We can do more. try."

Shi Yan put one hand on his chest and the other on his shoulder, raised her head on tiptoe and said coquettishly, "I don't listen to you!"

Lips that smelled of sweat were pressed together, and the smell of sunshine flowed between each other's lips and tongues.

Mu Qing put her arms around his waist, rubbing his earlobes lovingly and cherishingly.

The two figures bathed in the sunlight slowly overlapped.

After bathing again and changing clothes, Mu Qing and Shi Yan went out together.

Just on the way, Mu Qing sent Shi Yan to the entrance of the theater, and asked him if he wanted to pick him up at night, but Shi Yan refused. Anyway, there is a subway, so there is no need for him to make a special trip.

Lu Wanyu didn't come alone, he was accompanied by a peer wearing glasses.

The introduction said that it was Song Rongzhen, a classmate of Lu Wanyu's same grade in the same high school.

The two met in the library.

Song Rongzhen looks much more cheerful than Lu Wanyu. After greeting Shi Yan, he kept asking him what subjects Lu Wanyu taught, which university he went to, what major he was studying in, and whether he had a girlfriend. .

Later, it was Lu Wanyu who couldn't stand it anymore and reminded Song Rongzhen, "Rongzhen, you didn't check your household registration, why do you keep asking about your brother's family situation?"

"I'm just curious. Wan Yu, you don't usually make friends at school. Every time you go out with me, you always talk about brother this and brother that." Song Rongzhen showed a harmless smile and grinned at Shi Yan.

The three walked into the auditorium to find their seats.

This is not the premiere performance, there are not many people watching, and there are many vacancies.

"Hey, there's no date, we're just reading in the library together." Lu Wanyu nervously defended, and said to Shi Yan: "Brother, Rong Zhen and I have only known each other for two months, and occasionally we go to the library or It’s just reading in the book bar, there’s really no date.”

Shi Yan was not interested in their children's topic, and Wen Yan just smiled and said: "It's rare to see you make friends, you should play together often. You have so many figurines and games at home, can you ask Song Rongzhen to come and play together at home?" , you can also go to the amusement park on weekends. You are too home, it is a good thing to make friends, don't just refuse people."

When Lu Wanyu heard his words, he not only refused to agree, but was also very depressed, and even refused to talk to Song Rongzhen.

Song Rongzhen turned on the phone and watched the introduction of this stage play, "Hey, it's volleyball. Wan Yu, I don't know the rules of volleyball, can you tell me about it?"

Lu Wanyu was complaining to him secretly, how could he say anything, Shi Yan also nodded, "It's also the first time for me to watch a stage play, and it's also the first time for me to watch a volleyball match, Wanyu, please tell us the rules, otherwise we will watch it later don't know."

"Okay." Lu Wanyu turned on the tablet discouragedly, and used the sketchpad to draw the volleyball formation, and explained it briefly and quickly before the stage play started.

Song Rongzhen clung to him intentionally or unintentionally, while Lu Wanyu desperately leaned on Shi Yan's body, making Shi Yan baffled, wondering what they were fighting for.

The two-hour stage play made people's blood boil inexplicably, and Lu Wanyu even cried.

Shi Yan sighed in her heart while handing him a tissue, it seems that he really likes anime.

Song Rongzhen next to him seemed to have fallen asleep.

I'm not interested. What are you doing here?

Shi Yan couldn't help complaining.

Before leaving, Lu Wanyu even went to the stage to shake hands with the actors to ask for autographs, and after coming out, he bought a lot of merchandise.

Later Song Rongzhen became impatient.

Shi Yan overheard him complaining, "This is a standard otaku, otaku, why would I choose such a person, it's just masochistic."

Shi Yan didn't comment the whole time, and bought two figures for Lu Wanyu to help him take a photo with the cosplayer.

The three of them wandered around the exhibition outside the theater for an hour, and when night fell, Lu Wanyu volunteered to say that he had already found a restaurant to eat.

Song Rongzhen glanced at the address of the restaurant, and rolled his eyes vigorously, "It's five stops away from here, how can I get there? Do you have a car?"

Lu Wanyu looked at him inexplicably, "Take the bus, ah, there is also a subway line, bro, let's take the subway."

Shi Yan saw that his backpack was full of things, and there were several bags full of books in his hands. It was difficult for him to walk, so he offered to help share half of it, "Let's go."

Song Rongzhen's complexion was already not very good, and he stood still, "Let's take a taxi, it won't cost much for five stations."

Seeing his unhappy expression, Lu Wanyu said belatedly, "Why don't you go home first, Rong Zhen, my brother and I have to go shopping for a while after dinner."

"Brother, I have already told my father that I will not have class today, and I will make up for it later. After dinner, let's go to the East Bay to watch the light show, okay?"

Although Shi Yan was surprised, she didn't object. It was rare for Lu Wanyu to go out, so let's have fun, and nodded: "Okay. Let's go, the subway is in rush hour now, and there are many people."

Lu Wanyu waved to Song Rongzhen, "Rongzhen, let's go first, you can go back by yourself, bye."

Song Rongzhen was going to be pissed off, what did he think of him, a tool man who would throw away after use?Why!

"Who said I want to go back, I will go to dinner with you, I will accompany you for an afternoon, and you don't even invite me to eat, Wan Yu, you are too mean."

Lu Wanyu scratched her head embarrassedly, "I thought you were tired and wanted to go home early."

Woohoo, I originally wanted to date my brother alone, why did Song Rongzhen have to get involved.

Song Rongzhen ignored his hints and embarrassment, and took the initiative to walk to the subway station.

Shi Yan smiled and looked at the backs of the two children, they were really awkward children.

During the rush hour of the subway on weekend nights, the crowds were crowded, and the three of Shi Yan and the others were pushed to the door.

Shi Yan found a slightly more spacious space to stand, while Lu Wanyu and Song Rongzhen were pushed against the door behind them and couldn't move.

At this time, Song Rongzhen was not angry at all, and was hugging Lu Wanyu happily.

The hooded sweater hat on Lu Wanyu's body was pulled up to cover his head. Due to the bright clothes and his thin figure, he couldn't be seen as a boy at all just from his back view.

Song Rongzhen wrapped Lu Wanyu in his arms, and pushed the glasses that had slipped off the bridge of his nose. Although he was embarrassed by the people behind him, it was no problem compared to the warmth and softness from his arms.

Haha, what a pleasant surprise.

It seems that I can often bring people to take the subway in the future.

After getting off at the subway station, Lu Wanyu put down her hat, her ears and cheeks were red all the time, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Song Rongzhen.

Seeing that he bumped into people several times, Shi Yan had no choice but to reach out to hold him, "Wan Yu, watch the road."

Song Rongzhen stepped in between the two of them and took Lu Wanyu's hand, "That's right, there are so many people, they will fall if they don't look at the way."

As soon as the hand touched it, Lu Wanyu jumped up and moved away, "Brother, we will arrive after 500 meters from the station."

The complacent expression on Song Rongzhen's face darkened in an instant, and he looked coldly at the back of Lu Wanyu and Shi Yan when they came together again, the eyes behind the glasses were cunning and indifferent.

However, when they arrived at the door of the restaurant, they couldn't get in.

One is that their attire is too informal, and the security guard at the gate refuses to let them go.

Another one, this restaurant is membership-only, non-internal members are not allowed to enter.

Lu Wanyu looked dumbfounded at the receptionist who just smiled and politely rejected him, and could only turn around and say to Shi Yan in frustration: "Brother, I'm sorry, I just heard that my father said that the food in this restaurant is delicious, so I just listened to it. I want to bring you here."

But it turns out that the requirements for a meal are so high.

It was the first time Song Rongzhen experienced this kind of scene where eating depends on people's faces, and she cursed angrily, "What are you doing, you don't have money, why are you pretending to be forced. Don't you know that this restaurant only accepts people with status? I'm so annoying ! There are so many things to eat!"

As he spoke, he picked up his mobile phone and called someone, "Brother Rong Jin, this is Rong Zhen, please lend me Rosemary's membership card, I want to eat here."

Lu Wanyu hugged the paper bag and cried sadly, "Brother, I'm sorry."

Shi Yan was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that there is such a place in the world that only rich people can enter. However, he has always been calm and doesn't feel ashamed. He comforted Lu Wanyu and said: "It's okay, you don't have to eat here. There are other restaurants, we can just find another one.”

"Okay!" Lu Wanyu wiped away tears, planning to go with him.

Song Rongzhen yelled at the back, "Who are you going, come in with me!"

Turning around, he threw the mobile phone page in front of the receptionist, and taunted viciously, "Look clearly, high-ranking guest, the guy who looks down on people with dog eyes! You, guide us personally!"

The fingers poke the receptionist's chest arrogantly.

The receptionist bowed down respectfully with a contorted face to invite them in.

Lu Wanyu looked at Shi Yan hesitantly, not knowing whether to go in or not.

Shi Yan rubbed her temples with a headache. If she didn't go in, Song Rongzhen would probably lose her temper. This is a public place, and it would be ugly.

"Forget it, let's go in."

"May I ask if you want to use the box or the hall. For the convenience of watching the night view, Mr. Song has reserved seats in the hall and the box."

After entering the restaurant, a higher-level waiter came over to be in charge of reception. Song Rongzhen complained a few words and asked, "Which side has a better view?"

Waiter smiled and replied: "There has been a light show recently, and the view from the window in the lobby is better. The private room is more suitable for watching the sunset and the starry sky."

Song Rongzhen remembered that Lu Wanyu said before that he would go to the light show with Shiyan after dinner, so he said, "Then let's go to the lobby. Open another bottle of champagne for us, don't use what my brother and the others have drunk."

"Yes. The ingredients include French oysters that just arrived this afternoon. I wonder if you want some."

Song Rongzhen nodded, "Okay."

The whole hall is surrounded by transparent glass, and the neon lights of the whole city can be seen through the glass windows.

Lu Wanyu and Shi Yan were like old farmers entering the city, seeing such a luxurious and elegantly furnished restaurant for the first time.

While amazed, he looked at the guests who were dining quietly around them. They were all in suits and leather shoes, and only the three of them were dressed casually.

Suddenly Lu Wanyu stopped and looked at a dining table next to the indoor ornamental plants in the corner on the left, and pulled Shiyan's sleeve excitedly, "Brother, brother, that, that person, yes, it's Xu Yan, who plays the role of detective Xu Zhuyan." Xu Yan! He, the person opposite him, wow, is Mr. Jian Zongren, the author of the "Detective Xu Detective Case" series of detective novels!!!"

Shi Yan followed his gaze, and was also stunned in surprise. This series of detective novels is now very popular. It has been filmed as a weekly unit drama, and has also produced stage plays and dramas. Recently, I heard that a company has signed a contract. Ready to make a big movie.

There are other social celebrities around, all of whom are familiar faces on major media platforms.

Lu Wanyu was too excited to disturb the surrounding guests, and the waiter ran over nervously to remind, "Gentlemen, please don't make noise in public places, and don't disturb our guests' dining, thank you."

Shi Yan blushed, "Sorry, we're leaving right now."

Song Rongzhen looked back and saw their disheveled faces, and sneered, "You bumpkins who have never seen the world!"

The three of them sat down by the window, Song Rongzhen opened the menu and read a few pages without interest, then looked up at Lu Wanyu and Shi Yan who were sitting opposite each other.

The two men were stunned when they saw the French and Italian on the menu. They sneered again, turned to the waiter next to them and ordered a dozen dishes in Italian. After finishing, they changed to French and said: "Mr. There is also a copy of the reserved menu.”

"Yes." The waiter also had eyesight. It was obvious that Shi Yan and the others couldn't open their mouths to order. After politely nodding and smiling, they took the electronic order menu and turned to leave. The waiter in charge of drinks pushed a bottle of champagne that had just been opened. come over.

Shiyan put down the menu calmly, looked at Song Rongzhen who was showing off to them, frowned slightly, turned to look at Lu Wanyu, his face flushed with embarrassment, and whispered to him: "Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't choose a good restaurant. "

It's really not something ordinary people can afford. All the ingredients are imported, and the prices are all in Euros and US dollars.

Shi Yan patted his hand comfortingly.

Song Rongzhen got up after the waiter had poured the wine, and said to Shi Yan and the others: "There is someone I know, I'll go say hello. You do it yourself."

After speaking, he went straight to Xu Yan's table in the corner.

"Brother Rong Jian, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?" Walking in front of the table, Song Rongzhen obviously restrained his arrogance and became much more honest.

Song Rongjian had already noticed the movement on their side just now, and when he saw the person approaching, his expression remained unmoved, and he responded casually: "It's Rong Zhen, I haven't seen you grow up for two years, I almost didn't recognize it just now."

"Brother Rong Jian is the one. Now that you've become a great writer, you won't go back to the Song family." Song Rongzhen pushed up his glasses and smiled fakely, and nodded to Xu Yan, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Xu Yan's fair face flushed, "Don't bark in public."

Xu Yan is only less than 23 years old this year, youth is just right, youth is in full bloom, coupled with the nourishment of love, the whole person is like a piece of warm jade exuding brilliance.

"That's not a public place to call sister-in-law?" Song Rongzhen smiled and took out a silk handkerchief from his pocket, unfolded it and handed it to Xu Yan, "Sister-in-law, my classmate, you are a fan, help me sign it."

Song Rongjian slapped his hands away, "Go, do you still have any rules, you are molesting my head. Go away. Don't pretend to be in front of me."

"Rong Jian, don't be like this. Rong Zhen is just a child, don't be too strict with him." Xu Yan drank some wine, became limp, smiled and said to Song Rongzhen: "Don't listen to your brother, there is a pen Is it? I'll sign it for you."

Song Rongzhen turned to the waiter for a pen.

Xu Yan took a sip of his wine and asked, "How is Mr. Song doing? I heard that his rehabilitation is over."

There is only one Mr. Song in their mouth, the current head of the Song family, Song Rongjin.

Song Rongzhen nodded: "He, he's doing well recently. Shan Shu almost spoiled him into a mental retardation. I went to see him two days ago and complained to me about the happy fat growing on my stomach, and I need to lose weight."

"Haha, at his age, he is about to put on weight, and he can't control it if he wants to." Song Rongjian said happily.

Song Rongzhen followed with a smile, "I think it's okay. His body is already good, but he has gained some muscle because he has been sitting in a wheelchair for a while and hasn't exercised. He will lose weight soon after his body recovers and starts regular exercise."

Intentionally or not, the words accusing Song Rongjian of what he did back then sound very unpleasant.

Sure enough, Song Rongjian fell silent and stopped talking.

Xu Yan smoothed things over and said, "Rong Zhen is 17 years old. I heard that your father intends to let you study abroad. What do you think?"

The waiter had already brought the pen over, and Song Rongzhen handed it to Xu Yan for his signature and left without answering his last question.

Xu Yan saw that Song Rongjian suddenly lost energy, and couldn't help holding his hand, comforting him softly: "It's all over, and your brother has forgiven you, so don't blame yourself anymore."

Song Rongjian shook him back, forced a smile and said, "He is very soft-hearted towards his family. In the past two years, I feel more and more sorry for him."

"Since you are so guilty, why don't you go back and see him another day, and you will feel better."

"Wait a little longer. Let's talk when I am more accomplished, more confident, and able to stand in front of him confidently."
