Long grass warbler flying

His question came too suddenly, something Ji Xiao hadn't thought about at all.

Not to mention that the proposition of "meeting parents" does not belong to the scope of Ji Xiao's thinking at this stage-he is imprisoned by this cowardice like many others of the same kind, and the invisible shackles prevent him from mentioning this matter to his elders-from The "life" that Chu Lan said was enough to shock Ji Xiao.

From the beginning, he confessed twice tentatively, and after being accepted by Chu Lan, he tentatively made physical contact with him, and found that he would be happy for a long time if he didn't feel disgusted.Even if he didn't put himself in a humble position, it was because he wanted to be with Chu Lan for a long time.

But he didn't expect Chu Lan to put the title of "Lifetime" on the two of them so easily, saying it very normally, as if this is what should be done.

For a lifetime, these three words are sometimes heavier than "I love you".

Ji Xiao couldn't help but feel his eyes warm up, and he pretended to be joking to ease the atmosphere: "What are you talking about, don't make trouble, we have only been together for a long time, and I just want to see my parents."

Chu Lan said: "I read many journals and papers on the Internet, both at home and abroad. I also made an appointment with a psychiatrist with a good reputation in Hong Kong for consultation. They all said that the sooner you can be honest, the better. Not only will your parents not accept it if you delay it for a long time. , the two people will also have a estrangement because of this, isn't this going against the starting point?"

Ji Xiao stumbled and said, "But, but we've only been together... for a few months."

Chu Lan expected that he would use this as an argument, so she sighed: "The length of time is not a problem. I know you have concerns about me, and you are afraid that if you kiss me... or something else... I will be scared , I won’t get used to it, and then we’ll finish playing. Ah Xiao, I’ve thought about it too, you must believe me.”

What Ji Xiao wanted to say was snatched away by him, and Chu Lan couldn't pull ten donkeys back when he stood up. After thinking about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with it, and it sounded very scientific.

So Ji Xiao compromised: "At least wait for a while, until the two of us are stable?"

Chu Lan thought for a while, and it seemed to be the case. Besides, Ji Xiao and Ji Xiao met their parents without doing anything. It’s easy to talk about everything without a crash. If there is a physical disharmony, how can I explain it to his mother?

He thought too much and went too far, Ji Xiao pinched Chu Lan's face and said, "Everyone tells me to trust you, so you trust me too, okay?"

Chu Lan refused to accept, and blurted out: "You are very popular in school."

These words stunned both of them, Ji Xiao first recalled the endless jealousy in this sentence, and laughed out loud.Although the street lights were dim, he still saw Chu Lan's eyes flushed with shame.

Maybe the Moments that I usually posted got into trouble, and Ji Xiao always moved the group photos after everyone's activities.He didn't expect Chu Lan to mind because of these.

"This shows that you have a good vision." Ji Xiao old god said.

Chu Lan was speechless, the old vinegar that had been held back for a long time burst out, and he himself was dizzy for a while from the acid.He had no choice but to stride forward, unwilling to discuss this issue with Ji Xiao any more.

But later facts proved that Chu Lan's thinking was too simple.

They are just teenagers of eighteen or nineteen years old. It is the first time to conduct practical investigations independently, completely ignoring the difficulty of sorting out the data.Wang Jingyuan found cooperation partners for several students from CUHK. The interview took about a day, and then a questionnaire survey was conducted. The students from F University were willing to cooperate, but it took more time to sort out the data.

Ji Xiao is preparing for the final exam, and several elective courses have to be tested in advance.Chu Lan didn't call him, so he knew that the other party was not available, so he could review by himself with peace of mind.

Christmas is just around the corner from the busy schedule of the two of them.

On this day, Chu Lan and Han Ai's classmates managed to get the basic preliminary work done, and it became much easier to divide the rest of the work and write the thesis.He calculated that there were two days left, and he had to go back to school after the end.

The students said they wanted to go to nearby places such as Hangzhou and Zhoushan, so they parted ways.Chu Lan stayed in Shanghai and agreed with them to meet at Hongqiao Airport and fly back to Hong Kong together.After bidding farewell to her classmates, Chu Lan called Ji Xiao directly to tell herself that it was finally over.

On Christmas Eve, Ji Xiao happened to have an exam, so Chu Lan took a walk on the campus of C University, waiting for him to hand in the exam.

He looked at the school that Ji Xiao and Zhai Xinen said was "small and dilapidated", and felt that it was not as exaggerated as they despised, but the building was quite satisfactory, the facilities were all available, and the academic atmosphere was not good enough. Even compared with the F University next door, it doesn't look like a university.

Chu Lan followed the roadside signs and walked to the teaching building where Ji Xiao took the exam.He copied it by hand in his pocket, and was a little blinded by the winter wind in Shanghai.

So this is just the second time he and Ji Xiao got along alone after confirming their relationship. There was a gap of a few months between them, thousands of miles away. Holding the attitude of "Why don't you give it a try", unexpectedly, he became more and more attached to Ji Xiao later.

After the bell rang, many people poured out from the teaching building not long after.Most of them looked tired, or excitedly said that they had finished another exam.

When Ji Xiao came out, Chu Lan saw it at a glance. He couldn't do the thing of jumping up and waving his hands and shouting "I'm here", so he stood beside the flower bed.Meeting Ji Xiao's gaze, Chu Lan pulled his hand out of his pocket and made a V sign to him.

There was no way to have a romantic hug in the crowd, Ji Xiao hurried over, grabbed Chu Lan's arm and dragged him down, asking, "Where shall we go for the holiday?"

Chu Lan said with a straight face, "Western festivals, what are you celebrating?"

Ji Xiao: "...Then your school is still called 'Chinese University', why is it on Christmas holiday?"

He was carried away by Ji Xiao, but Chu Lan was still protesting: "Ours means 'Chinese culture', not Chinese! Do you understand it... Hey, talk well and don't drag me..."

Ji Xiao grabbed his hat and put it on Chu Lan's head involuntarily, then put his whole body around his shoulders and dragged him forward by virtue of his height: "I'm starving to death, let's go eat junk food!"

Chu Lan could barely see the road, so he let him rub it, and couldn't say a word of objection.

C University has a good location. Compared with CUHK, which Chu Lan jokingly called "backcountry", the university city first of all represents complete infrastructure.Just after leaving school, Ji Xiao recalled that Chu Lan was basically in F University during this time, and teased him, "Isn't it very happy to stay in Dream School for a few days?"

"Yes," Chu Lan nodded, "I feel like this life is complete."

When they were in high school, they liked to eat junk food like that. At that time, the Fifth Middle School was located in the city center where every inch of land was expensive. Although there was no subway station around, the bus was very convenient. If you walk, you can reach the city museum in 10 minutes.Ji Xiao doesn't like skipping classes very much, but Chu Lan always pulls him to do everything. The two of them often use various reasons and the privilege of top students to ask the teacher for a day off for evening self-study, go to the bustling business district to eat, and then buy some snacks to go back .

He is always with Chu Lan, and he will accompany her in everything he does. Over time, it has become a habit by now.

Ji Xiao tore open the ketchup and handed it to Chu Lan, took a sip of soda, and said, "I don't want to eat it for dinner, but I still like to eat these."

Chu Lan didn't answer, he just smiled, and his eyes were especially charming when they were bent. Because of the drooping eyes, with such a smile, they looked more like crescent moons than ordinary people's eyes.How could Chu Lan be so lively in the past, Ji Xiao didn't know that he had reviewed himself in the short time after college, so he was naturally very surprised.

They sat in the innermost corner of the restaurant. The well-heated fast food restaurant was full of people, including many children. Their voices were crisp and sweet, and they were particularly eye-catching.

Chu Lan took off her coat and put it aside, the gray turtleneck looked very warm.Ji Xiao said "hey" and said, "This one seems to be the one you said you liked last time when we went shopping."

"I bought it later." Chu Lan buried her head in her food, "There are too many people on Christmas Eve, where shall we go later?"

Ji Xiao: "If you like crowds, we can walk around. If you don't like bumping into others, why not go back to the hotel and I'll play games with you."

Chu Lan chose the latter after careful consideration. He saw satisfaction from Ji Xiao's expression, and thought, "I saw Ji Xiao's comment from Fan Fan's circle of friends before that he doesn't like crowds. He played in Hong Kong for two days before he did it for a long time. Not very happy."

It was still early after the meal, and as soon as the two of them walked out of the restaurant, several little girls selling apples came up and chatted: "Brother, buy an apple, happy Christmas Eve!"

"It's only ten yuan, big brother, the apples are very sweet and delicious!"

"Big brother, why don't you buy one, we can go home after selling these!"

Surrounded by them, Ji Xiao couldn't walk, so he cast a look at Chu Lan asking for help, but Chu Lan raised his eyebrows and said, "Big brother, buy one."

He couldn't help it at all, not to mention that an apple wasn't very expensive.Ji Xiao took out a piece of ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to the little girl, took the beautifully packaged apple from her hand and handed it directly to Chu Lan: "Okay, Alan, let's go back first."

After walking a few steps, Chu Lan suddenly turned around, pointed to one of the little girls and said, "Sister, how much are your flowers?"

"21 roses." The little girl replied, and immediately saw the business opportunity, and trotted over again, "Brother, do you want to buy flowers? This can be given to the eldest sister!"

Chu Lan couldn't help laughing, and after paying the money, she put the roses in Ji Xiao's hat and patted the little girl's head: "I'll send this brother."

The girl didn't understand this, and Ji Xiao, who was afraid of the cold and put on her hat next to her, was inserted a rose on her head by Chu Lan for no reason. how.

Chu Lan looked at Ji Xiao's behavior, took the apple out of the cellophane bag without haste, wiped it on his sleeve, and took a bite of the apple without paying attention at all.

Ji Xiao took the flowers down and studied them carefully. He had never received roses in his life. Chu Lan's attitude just now was casual. Before he could react, a flower had already been inserted into his head.Ji Xiao looked at it over and over at the moment, after a whole day, the rose was wilted, drooping his head listlessly.

"It's the first time I've received flowers." Ji Xiao thought for a while and said, "It's not pretty at all."

Chu Lan: "How dare you dislike..."

Ji Xiao: "But it mainly depends on who sent it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Chu Lan was not very agile in gnawing on the apple.Ji Xiao pulled his wrist, gnawed directly at the place where Chu Lan had bitten, and was picky about the apples he bought: "It's still not too sweet."

Chu Lan: "It depends on who sent it."

They looked at each other for a moment and laughed together.Chu Lan's free hand naturally inserted into Ji Xiao's pocket, and pinched his hand. Ji Xiao couldn't help but say, "Ice me again?"

Chu Lan continued to walk with him triumphantly, no one else could see the movement in the pocket, he touched Ji Xiao's finger, his face was calm, but he slowly stuck his finger in through the gap between his fingers , and then freeze into interlocking fingers.It didn't feel too bad, Chu Lan lowered her head, only looking at the colorful bricks under her feet.

When they are together, even though they have a lot of common topics, when they are free, they prefer to keep silent. They just walk hand in hand or shoulder to shoulder, stepping on the halo of street lamps step by step.

Later, Ji Xiao cherished that flower with an empty coke can as a vase, and put it on his desk.Others in the dormitory were very puzzled, why are the withered flowers still standing?

Ji Xiao explained: "Because I don't know how to make specimens."

The first time they spent Christmas together, the two played games all night in the hotel room where Chu Lan lived.Chu Lan used to play Blizzard's Hearthstone and World of Warcraft, but Ji Xiao didn't play online games very much. He built a tribal account that day and followed Chu Lan's buttocks.The boy's nature caused trouble, and finally played until after two o'clock, and wearily exchanged Merry Christmas.

Chu Lan left after Christmas, and Ji Xiao said to Xin En, "I didn't get anything, so I just wanted to kiss him... I was quite active before, but this time it's hard to understand."

When he said this, he was still looking at the photo that was set as the screen of his mobile phone—Chu Lan is not very defensive most of the time, especially when he is a little natural to trust people, Ji Xiao took it while he was leaning on the bed and playing with his mobile phone In this photo, I can't see the face clearly, but the realistic state of the movements is extremely relaxed.

Zhai Xinen snorted: "Forget it, people like you, why can't you live forever?"

She was a little annoyed by the senior who was chasing her recently, so seeing Ji Xiao, who is in love, exudes the flame of "death to death" all over her body, she wishes she could get rid of it and hurry up.

Ji Xiao accepted it as soon as he saw it, and changed the subject, "Then how is your high math review going?"

Zhai Xinen became even more angry immediately, picked up his backpack and threw it at Ji Xiao: "Get out of the way! Which pot is not open and which pot to carry!"
