Zhou Yan didn't lose her strength after experiencing flight cancellations, insomnia every night, and long-distance travel, but she completely disappeared under Brett's gaze.Zhou Yan let go of her hand with difficulty, and the luggage fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

After so many years, how should I greet you?With silence, with tears.

Zhou Yan was still in a daze, but Brett had already run in front of her, his eyes were filled with emotions that were about to overflow, and his hands embraced her with long-lost trembling and warmth: "Is it you?"

"It's me." Zhou Yan looked at Brett.

Brett hugged Zhou Yan tightly. This hug spanned many times and vast distances. She overcame everything and came to him in a hurry. Brett had to admit that Zhou Yan was much braver than himself , and much more persistent.

Zhou Yan could feel Brett's turbulent emotions. From the second they met, Brett's face was full of joy and panic.He seemed to be afraid that this encounter was just a dream or that it would come to naught.Time and setbacks have turned the mighty future astronaut so nervous and worried.Zhou Yan couldn't help thinking that if she had agreed to Brett and returned to the United States with him, would Brett's life, which she hadn't absent, become smoother.Zhou Yan tried her best to suppress her annoyance, she reminded herself that she still had a lot of debts to settle with Brett.

Zhou Yan restrained her sentimentality, broke free from Brett's embrace with all her strength, and looked at him with a pretended calm expression: "I'm just here for a trip, and I'll return to China after the summer vacation."

Brett's expression was so surprised that it completely collapsed: "You... didn't you come to find me?"

Seeing Brett's reaction, Zhou Yan, who almost laughed out loud, used a light cough as a cover: "I followed your suggestion in the email, and after carefully evaluating my personal ability and future development, I think it's better to stay. Going to university in China is more suitable for me.”

Brett looked at Zhou Yan helplessly, he finally understood the full meaning of that Chinese proverb that he couldn't understand, "lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot".

Zhou Yan picked up her bag again, and walked towards the open-air reading room, which was well-equipped from a distance and filled with colorful and attractive drinks: "Is there any water? I'm very thirsty now."

The fresh and sweet coconut water slowly slipped into the tip of her tongue, and Zhou Yan leaned on the sofa and sighed comfortably.The process of finding Brett was too tortuous. Because of the weather, the direct flight to Florida was cancelled, so Zhou Yan had to fly to another city for a connecting flight.Later, due to lack of preparation in advance, frequent changes of transportation, etc., Zhou Yan hardly slept much, exhausted and drowsy intertwined, only the idea of ​​seeing Brett as soon as possible remained to support her.

Now the sun is bright and not dazzling, which is really perfect for sleeping.

Brett watched Zhou Yan slowly close her eyes, and then her breathing became gentle and long.Brett shook his head with a grin. He adjusted the angle of the parasol and Zhou Yan's sitting posture so that she could sleep more comfortably on the sofa.

Brett sat on the chair next to Zhou Yan and saw that Zhou Yan was sleeping more and more deeply. A strand of long black hair was hanging down the tip of her nose. Zhou Yan frowned in her sleep. Hair flicked behind her ears.

Apart from being so surprised by Zhou Yan's sudden words that he forgot to think about it at first, when Brett saw Zhou Yan's heavy luggage and exhaustion, he knew that Zhou Yan must be looking for him specially. , Someone must have told Zhou Yan all about herself.

Brett recalled the last time he saw Edge.Aiji was very annoyed that he didn't discover his abnormality in the first place. At the end of the conversation, Aiji hesitated and said: "Captain, does Ian know about your suspension of training?"

Brett tried to put together a normal smile from the corner of his mouth, but he failed.

Edge looked at him seriously: "Captain, I think Ian has the right to know about this."

Brett nodded, yes, he very much agrees, Zhou Yan has the right to know about it, but she doesn't need to know about it, if it will affect her life and cause unnecessary trouble to her .

However, an hour ago, he felt boring and ordinary in the afternoon, and now, he was surrounded by the long-lost breath and aroma, which made him unable to extricate himself and was deeply infatuated with it.

Brett felt that no matter who made Zhou Yan's decision to go to the United States, he deserved his sincere gratitude.

……

When Zhou Yan woke up, the spacious, soft and comfortable touch she felt made her think that she had returned to her own big bed in China.

Zhou Yan rubbed her eyes sleepily, and saw that she was holding a blanket in her hands, and she was indeed lying on the bed right now.

Brett pushed open the bedroom door and came in: "You're awake, I just warmed up the milk, do you want to eat?"

Zhou Yan rubbed her belly, she hadn't eaten properly for several days, the weight loss progress she has achieved now may make many girls jealous: "Well, just eat whatever you want, the sooner the better."

Brett nodded and turned to the kitchen.

Suddenly, Zhou Yan reacted belatedly to the situation: "Wait! Don't tell me this is your room!"

Brett stopped, amused by her slow reaction, he turned to look at Zhou Yan: "Next, this will be your room."

Zhou Yan gritted her teeth and said: "If you dare to say, we will live together in the future, I will buy a ticket to return to China now!"

Brett spread his hands helplessly, and looked at Zhou Yan with a troubled look of "you really think too much": "NASA is not so poor, you can live here at ease, I have already applied for another bedroom."

Zhou Yan wanted to find the words to fight back against Brett, but sadly found that she was completely at a loss for words at the moment.Zhou Yan looked around and saw a group photo of Brett and other people on the table. She pointed in that direction and said, "I'm going to live in another dormitory. You can just continue to live in your own room."

Brett really laughed out loud this time: "Unfortunately, the extra dormitory can only be applied for as a NASA astronaut candidate, and it is not open to the public."

Zhou Yan pulled out the pillow angrily and threw it at Brett. Brett caught it lightly with one hand: "Thank you, but I'm not going to sleep now. I'll arrange dinner. You don't have to thank me too much."

"..." Zhou Yan realized that after so many years, this person has really become too insignificant.

Dinner was a bacon sandwich with a green salad.Zhou Yan took a big bite regardless of the image, and saw Brett opposite her eating elegantly with a plate of unknown objects.

Sensing Zhou Yan's gaze, Brett asked, "Why, are you interested in tasting it?"

Zhou Yan shook her head in fear of avoiding it. This must be another nutritious meal specially made by NASA. Looking at it makes people lose their appetite.

Waiting for Zhou Yan to eat the sandwich and began to eat the salad slowly, Brett asked, "How long are you going to stay this time?"

"Ok?"

"Aren't you here to travel?"

Zhou Yan almost choked on the vegetables, and quickly swallowed half a glass of milk. After sleeping for a whole afternoon, she even forgot about the excuses she came up with.She must make Brett suffer a lot this time, so she must not let Brett see that she plans to study in the United States. She pretended to be cold and said: "Look at the situation, it shouldn't be too long."

Brett glanced at his watch: "According to my understanding of Chinese students, it should not be a holiday now."

Zhou Yan replied: "Our school is an international school, and the schedule is relatively free."

"Oh, that's right." Brett nodded, and then continued to bury his head in the strange food.

Zhou Yan wiped her sweat, why did she repeatedly look for reasons like she did something wrong and was afraid of being exposed?The person who did the wrong thing was obviously Brett.

"What do you like to eat?" Brett asked suddenly.

Zhou Yan couldn't figure it out, but she was very happy, and the topic finally stopped spinning on the excuses she made up: "I don't have anything that I particularly like, and there is nothing that I don't particularly like." In retrospect, whether in Japan or Germany, , or in China, she has never had any special requirements for diet.

Brett thought about it and said, "You are too light, you need to take proper nutrition."

Zhou Yan's first reaction was that she was very happy. It seems that she has maintained a good figure for so many years. The next second thought was, "Wait a minute—"How do you know?"

Seeing Brett's mouth curled up in spring, Zhou Yan recalled that in the afternoon, she had slept soundly on the sofa in the open-air reading room, but she woke up on the soft bed.Zhou Yan's face turned red in an instant, and it could almost complement the tomato in the vegetable salad that she had eaten until there was only one piece left.

Brett sat opposite Zhou Yan, admiring the change in her expression with satisfaction: "This place is not far from the beach, so for me, it's quite easy to carry you back."

Zhou Yan approached Brett: "It seems that you are quite experienced in this job?"

Seeing the murderous look in Zhou Yan's eyes, as if she was already sharpening her sword, Brett quickly explained: "When I am training, I often do weight-bearing exercises of several hundred catties."

"..." No wonder Brett felt that she was very light, it was only because the control group was too strong.Zhou Yan was speechless, Brett didn't give her face so much, she didn't need to be polite, "I will give you the menu tomorrow morning, and I will leave all the food and drink during my trip to you. If you fail to satisfy me, I will To change the chef."

The smiles on Brett's face were layer upon layer, and his eyes were as gentle as rippling waves: "It's an honor."
