marriage [big family]

Walking along the rugged mountain path to the top of the mountain, there is a stone church with many years of history. This place has a beautiful scenery. Every weekend, nearby residents will come here to worship, which is lively but not noisy.

Yao Jinxi walked around the church and took a few photos. Hearing the faint singing from inside, his fluctuating mood slowly calmed down. He didn't rush in and waited until the people inside left one by one. , before entering the door.

There was no one in the church anymore. In front of the statue was a nun with her head down praying devoutly. Behind her were six or seven children standing in a row who were also praying. Yao Jinxi sat in the back row for a while before walking forward. The nun who finished the prayer ceremony turned her head to see him very surprised and pleasantly surprised: "Arthur?"

"Sister Marisa, long time no see." Yao Jinxi greeted her with a smile.

The church here is not far from the school where he studied at the beginning. Yao Jinxi used to come here every weekend, and he was familiar with Sister Marisa, knowing that she is a kind-hearted person and has adopted many orphans. Since then Yao Jinxi began to support her, and it has not stopped for so many years.

As soon as those children heard that he was the kind-hearted person who had been donating to them all these years, they immediately surrounded him, and all of them showed innocent smiles and thanked Yao Jinxi. Yao Jinxi touched their heads and said a few words, Sister Marisa asked them to go outside to play, and then asked him: "Hasn't Arthur been back for many years?"

Yao Jinxi nodded: "It's rare to have a vacation after work, so I stopped by to have a look, Sister Marisa... I actually came to ask something."

"You say it."

"When I was studying, do you still have any memories of the two companions who came with me? I remember that you should be quite familiar with one of them named Lu Ming?"

"Mr. Lu? Of course you remember, he used to come here on weekends just like you, but he usually comes here on Saturdays, and you come on Sundays. Every time he comes, he will teach the children here to play the piano," Sister Marisa sighed: "Thanks to you and him, if you hadn't been donating to us all these years, this place might have closed down long ago."

Even though he had conjectured and confirmed it, Yao Jinxi still had mixed feelings in his mind: "...he will play the piano here?"

"He plays the piano very well. I remember you came together a few times later? Are you friends? Have you never heard him play the piano?"

"What about the other person? When we came together, there were three of us. He said that he would also teach these children to play the piano here. Do you have any impression?"

"Another person?" Sister Marisa thought for a long time and shook her head: "It's been too long ago, I really can't remember it, but Mr. Lu was the only one who taught these children to play the piano at that time."

Facing the slightly puzzled eyes of the other party, Yao Jinxi was speechless. The first time he met Qi Rui was in this church. At that time, the news of his mother's death came. On that day, he clearly remembered that he was in I sat under the wall outside the church for a whole day, and then I heard someone playing that song again, as if every time he was saddest and darkest, he would always appear to comfort him at the right time. He didn't think of getting up and going in until the whole piece was played, and then he saw Qi Rui sitting in front of the piano.

For so many years, Yao Jinxi has never forgotten the heartbeat at that moment. What he fell in love with was not Qi Rui, but the person who comforted him. At that time, he went up to ask Qi Rui if he was the one who was talking about playing the piano. There was some surprise in her reaction, but she also nodded, and Yao Jinxi no longer doubted it.

Later, he and Lu Ming chased Qi Rui together, and they came here occasionally, but Qi Rui never played the piano again, and neither did Lu Ming.

It was almost dark when Yao Jinxi went down the mountain, and the snowy mountain road was difficult to walk. When he got to the bottom of the mountain, it was already dark at the hotel where he stayed. To his surprise, he saw Lu Lu waiting for him under the coffee shed on the side of the road. Ming.

Seeing Lu Ming's sudden appearance, Yao Jinxi was completely stunned and forgot to respond. Lu Ming stepped forward, took off the scarf around his neck and put it on for him. The earlobe, which was already a little red, said with a smile in his tone, "Are you stupid?"

Yao Jinxi finally recovered from the surprise of seeing him suddenly, and asked, "Why are you here? How do you know I'm here?"

"Wherever you go, I can find you." Lu Ming said disgusting words, and then laughed happily.

Yao Jinxi pursed his lips, reached out and pushed him gently: "Go in, it's cold here."

After taking off his coat and sitting down in a well-heated room, Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Yao Jinxi around his waist again, sat down beside him, and leaned over to kiss him.

It has been more than half a month since we saw each other, and we were still arguing before, but this time they met in such a sudden situation, both of them were a little impatient, especially Yao Jinxi, what he only knew gave him a big shock, this time After seeing Lu Ming, he was even more excited, and he no longer deliberately suppressed his feelings, eagerly kissing and actively teasing him.

Pushing the person down on the sofa, Lu Ming's breathing was a little unsteady, and his voice became hoarse after pulling away a little distance: "Is there something here?"

Yao Jinxi hugged his head and kissed him carelessly, reminding him: "There seems to be..."

-

From the sofa to the bed, tossing and tossing until both of them lost their strength, Lu Ming pulled the thin quilt to cover their naked bodies full of ambiguous marks, lowered his head and kissed Yao Jinxi's sweaty forehead with his eyes closed, and said in a hoarse voice: "I met grandma when I was in London, and I went to your grandpa's cemetery to pay respects. I heard grandma said that you came here when you came here."

"Why didn't you call me?" Yao Jinxi whispered.

"I want to surprise you."

Yao Jinxi opened his eyes, raised his head and pulled Lu Ming down to exchange another kiss: "I just came here after going to the head office."

"Are you okay?" Lu Ming was still a little worried about what his grandfather said before.

"It's a bit troublesome." Yao Jinxi pushed Lu Ming lightly, let him get off his body, turned on the bedside lamp, propped up his body and half leaned against the bedside, and slowly said: "There are changes in high-level personnel, and there are also changes in capital turnover. There was trouble... and I resigned."

Lu Ming was surprised when he heard this: "Resign? You resigned?!"

"Well, originally I was working in LK because my grandfather meant it. Now that my grandfather has passed away, let's forget it. The company wants to transfer me back to the headquarters, so I simply resigned. I can do something I want to do in the future."

"Are you serious?" Lu Ming looked at him, as if he couldn't believe it: "Did you really decide to resign?"

"I have already resigned. I will go back for a month at most. I can leave after the replacement is sent to complete the handover procedures."

"...Then let me support you in the future."

Yao Jinxi smiled: "That's not necessary, I plan to start my own company."

Lu Ming didn't ask him which line of business he planned to do, but Yao Jinxi must have an idea, and he really doesn't need to worry about such things, so he asked instead, "Why did you suddenly think of coming here?"

"I think of some things from my school days," Yao Jinxi looked at Lu Ming with gloomy eyes when talking about this, "some things that I had neglected before."

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Ah, I also remembered, the coffee shed outside just now, we used to hide from the rain together, remember?"

In fact, it is not a good memory, but it was just a chance encounter, each occupied a table and drank coffee in silence while waiting for the rain to stop, but thinking about it now also brings a bit of indescribable sweetness.

"Not that," Yao Jinxi asked him, "You said before that you could play the piano?"

"Yeah, but I haven't played it for a long time..."

Yao Jinxi took out his mobile phone, and played the piano piece recorded from the radio back then for him to listen to. Seeing Lu Ming's expression change from doubt to surprise to bewilderment at the end, the corners of Yao Jinxi's mouth couldn't help but rise: "Did you play it?"

Lu Ming was dumbfounded, and nodded subconsciously. Back then, he played a note wrongly, and missed the gold award for this, so he always remembered that he played it himself, but he didn't expect it Yao Jinxi was able to find the song more than ten years ago, but Yao Jinxi's next sentence surprised him even more.

"I've kept this piece ever since I first heard it 13 years ago."

Lu Ming was completely stunned, Yao Jinxi in front of him was already slightly red-eyed: "I heard someone play this song again seven years ago, it was in the church on the mountain, it was almost exactly the same as what I recorded, but it was indeed Indeed, I heard it with my own ears, and I always thought that the person playing the piano was Qi Rui..."

"...Qi Rui doesn't know how to play the piano at all, but he has followed me to that church a few times," Lu Ming nana picked up, and suddenly understood what he meant, and when he spoke again, his voice was trembling, even himself I couldn't believe it: "...Is it because of this?"

Lu Ming and Qi Rui met first. That time, the person playing the piano was Lu Ming, who happened to be overheard by Yao Jinxi. When he entered, Lu Ming had already got up and left to talk to the nun, but he saw him sitting at the piano The former Qi Rui was just used to being praised by others, so he followed his words and admitted that he played it himself, but Yao Jinxi kept admitting to the wrong person for this.

"If I knew that person was you at that time, from seven years ago, I would have been chasing you." Yao Jinxi sighed in a low voice, not knowing whether it was because of regret or something else.

Lu Ming stared at him blankly, and finally his eyes were red, and he leaned over to kiss him: "What a pity..."

If Yao Jinxi was chasing him at that time, Lu Ming thought that he might not be able to resist his charm at all, and he might have fallen in the early morning.

"Why did you never play it again when we went to church together a few times?"

Yao Jinxi was a little depressed about this, if he heard it even once, he wouldn't have misunderstood it for so many years.

Lu Ming said helplessly: "Qi Rui didn't like this, he said it was boring, so I didn't play it in front of him again afterwards."

He raised his eyes and looked deeply into Yao Jinxi's eyes: "You like this song so much?"

Yao Jinxi nodded, he couldn't tell what this piano piece had brought him.

Lu Ming smiled: "Okay, don't listen to the recordings on your phone from now on. If you like it, I'll play it for you every day."
