Professional racing driver forced to debut
Chapter 70 Absence
Jian Xing waited patiently by the side, and when he showed no expression, his brows would be subconsciously frowned.It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just a habit.
He looked down at his phone, but in fact, no one sent him a message, and there was no message to reply.
Looking at the phone, swiping and pulling the screen, doing meaningless actions, just to make myself look less boring.
But does it take that long to take a picture?
Putting away the phone, the eyebrows and eyes were swept to one side, and the two who were still taking a group photo started to scan the WeChat QR code.
Suddenly he felt aggrieved and angry, but he also knew that Lan Heng was just adding friends politely, he didn't know how to reject people.Especially if the person coming is a girl, if she refuses, the other party will definitely be very sad.
The combination of reason and emotion made Jian Xing almost burst into flames. After the girl left, Lan Heng looked at the photos on the screen contentedly and saved them.
Jian Xing was even more shocked: "You still keep it? You—"
When he came to Lan Heng's side, Jian Xing's eyes widened, and the fire in his heart became more intense.He just took a small step coyly, but Lan Heng actually did such a thing in front of him? !
Seeing Lan Heng stretching out his hand to block it, Jian Xing was furious and extremely angry.Just don't look at it, and said coldly: "Okay, I will continue to go back to eat. You save it slowly."
Jian Xing was about to leave, Lan Heng grabbed the corner of Jian Xing's coat to prevent Jane from walking, Jian Xing turned around and glared, but unexpectedly saw the magnified face on the screen.
is himself.
He froze in place, unable to move his limbs as if they had been filled with lead.Looking back at the previous anger, it is so ridiculous to think about it now.
This made Jian Xing a little scared, he just took a small step, and he would let his emotions lead his reason.Then if he takes a few more steps, will he become a love brain?
"I haven't seen you back for so long, I thought you were planning to eat in the toilet." A flat female voice came from behind, suddenly bringing Jian Xing back to reality, and he heard Jian Ling say again, "Have you finished talking yet?"
Jian Ling's sharp eyes fell on Lan Heng's hand touching Jian Xing, Lan Heng immediately let go of his hand, and then said politely: "Hello, Auntie."
Hearing the sound of auntie, Jian Ling felt very uncomfortable, but she didn't make a sound of ridicule.
Jian Xing turned to Lan Heng and said, "You should go back to eat first."
No matter how mischievous the child is on weekdays, he will always restrain his minions in front of relatives.
But Jian Xing will not, Jian Xing has always been a rebellious child in the eyes of many relatives, different from other children who are well-behaved and docile.If you have made a joke with any sentence, Jian Xing will not hesitate to go back.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, I went back to the hotel arranged by Jian Ling, in the elevator room.Jian Xing suddenly said, "Mom, will love make people lose control?"
Jian Ling froze for a moment, her delicate face was a little dazed.After the elevator door opened, she said: "Low-level love makes people lose themselves, high-level love makes people stronger. I have no objection to your falling in love, but you have to remember that in love, never get entangled in trivial matters. Everyone expresses love in a different way, and no one will love you the way you want the whole time, but isn’t this love? Not necessarily.”
"The word first love is too beautiful, and it is easy for people to have wrong illusions about it." Jian Ling opened her suite with her room card, tilted her head and said, "Actually, the so-called first love is just like that. Don't take love too seriously. Something happened."
"The winter test is coming soon. I understand your expectations and pressure. If you are really tired, you can try a one-night stand. Doing this kind of thing really helps you relax." Jian Ling shared her experience.
Jian Xing's temples suddenly twitched. It was a bit challenging for his mother to share this way of decompression with himself, but Jian Xing didn't think it was wrong to use sex/love to relax himself.
He had also met several of Jian Ling's male companions, no matter their family background, appearance, or knowledge, they were all at the top of the pyramid.
The most ridiculous thing is that they thought they had successfully grasped Jian Ling firmly in their hands. Everyone thought they would be the last one, but unfortunately, no one was.
Jian Xing said: "I see, you should rest. Pay attention to your body."
"Oh, by the way, I forgot a little bit." Jian Ling closed the door halfway, then opened it suddenly, his expression gradually became serious and cold, "Stay away from Jingzhou people."
Jian Xing: ...
Back in his room, Jian Xing seemed to have suddenly figured it out.
He likes to accomplish many things by himself, and what he loves most is fighting alone. He always believes that as long as his belief is strong enough, he can accomplish anything.
This is indeed the case, but he restricts his behavior too much, he seems to be used to setting various rules and regulations for himself, and then traps himself inside.Only he has his own key, and he can never get out unless he wants to.
It's not that falling in love will affect yourself, but falling in love will affect people who are not firm-willed.
Will Jian Ling fall in love?No, she doesn't like to secure a relationship.
The so-called male companion is like renting a lover, she can change anytime she wants, no need to be responsible, no need to worry, everything is just for happiness.
The process of being able to enjoy a male partner is actually not much different from falling in love.The difference is a status. The reason why he is not sure about the relationship between lovers may be because of his son's feelings.
Although Jian Xing said that he didn't care.
After sorting things out, everything went back to the beginning.
Will he fall in love?
The answer lies only in himself.
He can do anything if he wants.
The supplies of the convoy have been transported to Spain with the container, and after a short rest, the convoy embarked on the journey again.
Tang Yilong chartered several planes, and when the planes landed in Barcelona, Jian Xing still thought he was dreaming.
Everything is like an illusory dream, too beautiful to be real.
It seems that yesterday he was still saddened by Rick Deli's choice to renew Quentin Kent's contract and abandoning himself. Today, he was able to come to the winter test site as a Chinese driver of Huaguo Racing Team.
During the winter test period, the Catalan circuit is open to the public free of charge, and each team builds its own P room (maintenance station) in the track maintenance area in advance.
The addition of the team led by Fabian and the former Flynn team injected new life into Don.Regarding the research and development of racing cars, the engineers' ideas are unconstrained, they dare to innovate, and they constantly break through the limits of racing cars.
Some wealthy teams have their own tracks. In order to prevent these teams from frequently testing their cars in private and causing too much advantage and affecting the fairness of the game, F1 teams are not allowed to test their cars privately.
Because not all teams have a private test track, there are always some teams with limited budgets.
Therefore, after the racing car is created, the driver can only simulate driving on the computer, which uses the simulator technology.But even the most expensive simulator can't simulate the experience brought by the real track.
A racing car needs a lot of road tests, actual measurements, and continuous optimization and adjustment based on feedback data. Only in this way can a car with the best possible performance be obtained.
The winter test with a limited time every year is the only way for drivers and teams to understand the car before the official competition.
Even if you arrive in Barcelona early, the daily training will not stop.Different mechanics do their own thing, repeating training day after day, constantly running in, trying to increase their proficiency.
In the F1 arena, the time will be accurate to 0.001s.One of the most interesting aspects of F1 is the tire change process when the car enters the pit stop (P room) halfway.
As long as you spend less time changing tires, you have a greater advantage.
首轮冬测时间为2月26日~3月1日,第二轮冬测则是3月6日~3月9日,
2 month 26 day.
All the vehicles are ready to go, the cars are painted with new livery, and the drivers also wear new racing suits.
Eighteen drivers from all over the world walked in wearing their respective team uniforms.
There are a total of ten teams, and there should be twenty drivers, but now two are absent.
But no one was surprised because they had received the news long ago.
The media did not expect to get such interesting news on the first day of the test.They put their faces in front of the camera, and the area behind them is Don's team's P room (pit station).
"Compared to the test results of other teams, there is an explosive news today—"
"The all-Chinese team that bought Flynn and changed its name to Don will not go out for racing testing today. Similarly, it won't happen tomorrow, maybe not the day after tomorrow."
"There are only eight days of winter testing, and every second on the track is precious. Even if you miss 10 minutes, it will cause huge losses to the interests of the team. At such a critical juncture, Don actually made an astonishingly low-level mistake. "
"—they're missing key parts of the car."
The maintenance stations of different teams are set up in the maintenance area of the Catalunya circuit. The clothing styles and colors of each team are different, so you can tell which team this person is playing for at a glance.
Among these ten teams, there is one team whose maintenance station is closed behind closed doors.They pulled down the curtain of the maintenance area that had been built, as if to tell everyone that they are closed for business today.
This is ridiculous.
Winter testing and they weren't even ready for the car.
"The most eye-catching performance today is undoubtedly the bohemian playboy - Cameron Longman!"
"The swinger brought money into the group three years ago and squeezed away Mesken's original No. 1 driver, Cyril Lopez. This also made there no extra seats in the paddock the following year, and Cyril Lopez only Can be forced to withdraw from the F1 sight. But after a year, Cyril Lopez entered the F[-] sight again, and this time, he played for the Le Mans team!"
"Cameron Longman is in excellent condition today, which must be inseparable from the upgrade of the Mesken car. Look, he is very comfortable. Before the test time in the morning, he decided to end the test and let himself teammates on top."
"What a confident and arrogant Cameron, but it is precisely because of his arrogance that many car fans succumb to his charm!"
The original plan of the Mesken team was that the two drivers in the team were responsible for the morning and afternoon tests respectively.Cameron Longman's test time in the morning was assigned to his teammate Cosmo Norman in the afternoon.
But Cameron chose to end his testing work first, and he dealt with the media comfortably.With a cynical smile on his face, he looked at the female reporter with frivolous and casual eyes.
"Excuse me, Cameron Longman, why did you end the test early?" the female reporter asked.
"Miss reporter, it's all because you are too charming. Your beautiful face is the most beautiful scenery on the track. With your presence, I don't care about testing at all." Cameron bowed gentlemanly, and hugged the woman affectionately. The reporter's hand put a kiss on the back of his hand.Then he looked up, "So, is there any hope for me to get your contact information?"
Everyone in the paddock is familiar with Cameron's dissolute style, and he has never been short of tidbits.
As the only son of the top ten richest people in Country Y, his life was already unrestrained, and his fame in the paddock made him even more indulgent.
The female reporter was obviously used to being teased by the other party, and looked at Cameron calmly: "Cameron, of course I can give you the contact information. But before that, I still want to ask, how do you feel after the test today? Especially What do you think if one of the ten teams is absent today?"
Cameron has always been famous for his outspokenness in the paddock. Many drivers will look at the honor of the team and maintain the face of the sponsors to establish their image firmly.
But Cameron can say whatever he wants, curse people if he wants to, and beat people if he wants to.When he participated in the F1 competition in his first year, he won the championship once, but lost the podium because another slow car did not evade in time.
Even a rational person would lose control in such a situation. After getting off the racing car, the violent Cameron rushed directly to the opponent's pit stop, grabbed the opponent's collar and greeted the opponent's face angrily.
Fortunately, the teams of both sides contained it in time to prevent the situation from deteriorating.
"What can I say?" Cameron asked back.
Just when she was about to continue asking questions, Cameron said casually: "A small, shoddy factory, and two wild people who don't know where to find them. Whether they are absent or not, it will not affect other people's lap times, right?"
Although Cameron is laughing, people can't feel a smile, but it makes people feel creepy.
It is rare to see such a half-smile on Cameron's face, as well as such a strange tone of voice.
Cameron is proud, but he has proud capital.He set the current lap record, and as the number one holder, he is naturally entitled to be proud.
The Mesken team does not support his arrogant and unruly temperament, but it cannot be ignored that it is Cameron's temperament that has attracted many car fans and many sponsors for the team.
"So, beautiful lady reporter." Cameron smiled ambiguously, "Can you give me your contact information?"
I thought everything was ready, but at a critical moment, the chain fell off.
Car parts were not delivered to Barcelona in time, but were delayed by two days, which also prevented the car from being fully assembled.
In the past few days, everyone in the team has been blaming themselves and reflecting on themselves, like a lingering dark cloud that has always shrouded the hotel.
Fabian took the initiative to comfort and encourage everyone. This is just a small problem and it doesn't matter.They can overcome, what they have to do is, do better in the future.
However, if such mistakes occur, the sense of distrust and self-confidence will be strengthened.Not only the team staff will think so, but also the drivers.
Jian Xing was excitedly preparing for the winter test on the second day, but the head of the team suddenly told Jian Xing that the car lacked the most critical parts.
Due to transportation problems, the remaining parts will be delayed for a few days. When he heard the news, he felt that the sky was falling apart.
How many days?
How many days is it?
A total of eight days of winter testing.
On February 2th, the Don team was still absent from the winter test.
There is always a lack of new teams on the Catalan circuit. Many team members seem to be used to it, and they are not optimistic about this new team.
The remaining car parts arrived in the early hours of February 2, which was another huge challenge for the team's mechanics and engineers.They need to fully assemble the two cars before dawn.
The more nervous you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. Fabian kept an eye on the whole process. Jian Xing originally wanted to check the situation, but Fabian refused.
Fabian believes that Jian Xing's appearance at this moment will increase the pressure on the team members.
Even though there was a tsunami in his heart, Jian Xing could only suppress the turbulent noise.
But confusion, panic, and uneasiness will still exist. He is afraid that the team will not be able to do it, and he is also afraid that there will be new mistakes in such a short period of time.
This kind of mistake from the outside world is the most unacceptable, because it is beyond his control.All he can do is drive the car as best he can, but accidents always happen.
The worse the conditions, the more you must keep calm.
Calm, calm, only absolute calm can maintain absolute concentration.
Jian Xing sat on the stone pier under the tree outside the hotel. The light here is not strong, and it is a corner, so few people pass by.It is also such a dim and unclear environment that is most suitable for mediating emotions.
Jian Xing's mobile phone was connected to the hotel's WiFi, and he was bored scrolling through social platforms on the Internet, and saw a private message sent to him by an unknown account.
This private message is ordinary, just a news forwarding page.Boring to open it, Jian Xing saw the enlarged close-up photo of Cameron.
With a random glance at the content, Jian Xing has no desire to continue.
He skillfully blocked this person, reported him, and posted other news again.
The surroundings gradually quieted down, and it was in such a state of complete silence that it was easy to remind people of some ghost stories.Somehow, these things that I don't want to recall and fear suddenly rush to my mind.
Jian Xing had goose bumps all over his body, and swallowed in his throat.The night wind was a bit cool, like a gust of wind in a certain environment.
Jian Xing suddenly regretted it, he shouldn't have come out and run around, he should have locked himself in the hotel room.
Now he was so scared that his legs were weak, but he didn't dare to stand up and go back, as if as soon as he stood up, he would encounter a supernatural event.
Silently chanting Buddhist scriptures in my heart, my fingers kept swiping the phone page, trying to search for some more positive things to refresh my eyes.
Unfortunately, as one wished, Jian Xing happened to find a promotional poster for a certain horror movie!
Jian Xing immediately buckled the phone upside down on his lap, shivering along his spine all the way to the back of his head, and finally went straight to Tianlinggai.For so many moments, he even thought he was in an ice cave.
It wasn't until a warm coat was put on the body that the chill suddenly dissipated.He was still undecided, and his nerves twitched from the sudden warmth.
"Cold?"
Jian Xing was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in a half-confused manner, unable to see the other party's face clearly under the dark light.But he could feel enough heat to melt all fear, as if as long as he was by this person's side, he would gain sanctuary.
The stone pier is not big enough to accommodate two people sitting down.
Lan Heng remained standing, wearing only a black sweater.The reason why Jian Xing felt warm was because the down jacket carried the temperature that belonged to Lan Heng.
Jian Xing's heart was still tense, but it loosened at a slow speed.He moved his fingertips slightly, shook his head stiffly and said, "It's not cold, you can wear it."
As Jian Xing said, he wanted to take off the down jacket, but Ke Lanheng moved one step ahead of him, pulling the neckline of the down jacket tight.Then he landed on his knees and slowly pulled the zipper up.
These hands are always very warm, whether it is a hot summer day or a cold winter night.Even if it is not an intimate touch, just a slight approach has a strong magnetic field.
Jian Xing is like a puppet without hands, his arms are trapped in the warm down jacket.He could only look down at the face, even if he couldn't see it clearly.
It smells very fragrant. Since the day he met Lan Heng, he hasn't changed the shower gel.This also caused Jian Xing to involuntarily think of the existence of Lan Heng when he smelled something like this.
Jian Xing said suddenly: "You are so smart."
Lan Heng asked "Hmm?" in confusion.
In the shroud of night and weakened sight, the senses of taste and hearing are particularly developed.
This reply was tactful and uplifting, with a faint hum, more like an unintentional temptation.
Jian Xing said with emotion: "You are worthy of being a top student."
Lan Heng seemed to be even more confused, the hand that finished zipping went down and brushed Jian Xing's outer thigh.
Jian Xing was only wearing jeans. Logically speaking, such a touch would not make him feel anything, but unfortunately, he felt a little hot.
Jian Xing moved his butt to the side, giving way to half of the stone pier, shook his arms along the way, and got his hands out of the hem of the down jacket.He patted the other half of the stone pier, and said generously, "Sit down."
Lan Heng understood Jian Xing's mood better than anyone else. Although he didn't show it, he was also looking forward to the winter test.It's not that he hasn't fantasized about this day, but he thinks it's too far away, like an unattainable fantasy.
When the fantasy became reality, he was hit in the head again, and he was forced to be dizzy.
When something happens, you should face it. If you want not to be defeated by the predicament, you can only face the predicament directly.
Lan Heng has a stupid mouth, even if he tries to chat with people, it is very boring.
The fitness coach strengthens the physical training of Lan Heng, formulates a reasonable formula, and strives to let Lan Heng have a "steel" body.
During the training period, Lan Heng often had nothing to say with the other party to practice his verbal expression.Every time the coach is very speechless, he can only be forced to have an awkward chat.
"There will be no more surprises."
When Lan Heng said this, he subconsciously turned his body sideways, which put Shi Dun'er, who was already small, into a predicament, and almost pushed Jian Xing out.
Fortunately, Lan Heng caught Jian Xing in time. Although he was separated by a heavy down jacket, he was lucky enough to touch the back of Jian Xing's cool hand.
The fleeting touch has the magic power to make people lose their soul.
Lan Heng sat up slightly, and moved his fingertips down.His fingers were longer than ordinary people's, so it was easy to touch the back of the other's hand exposed outside the down jacket.
With a light touch, it was like fireworks exploding on Jian Xing's scalp.He was a little nervous and looking forward to it, but Lan Heng never made any next move.
Until Lan Heng's fingertips moved slightly again, Jian Xing murmured like a ghost: "Didn't the car regulations prohibit holding hands?"
As soon as the words came out of the mouth, Jian Xing regretted it.
Finally, the ambiguous atmosphere was suddenly destroyed, and Jian Xing felt a little regretful.
As expected, Lan Heng took his hand back, and Jian Xing's heart was as complicated as an overturned bottle.Suddenly, a hoarse voice quietly drilled into the eardrum——
"What about kissing?"
He looked down at his phone, but in fact, no one sent him a message, and there was no message to reply.
Looking at the phone, swiping and pulling the screen, doing meaningless actions, just to make myself look less boring.
But does it take that long to take a picture?
Putting away the phone, the eyebrows and eyes were swept to one side, and the two who were still taking a group photo started to scan the WeChat QR code.

He had also met several of Jian Ling's male companions, no matter their family background, appearance, or knowledge, they were all at the top of the pyramid.
The most ridiculous thing is that they thought they had successfully grasped Jian Ling firmly in their hands. Everyone thought they would be the last one, but unfortunately, no one was.
Jian Xing said: "I see, you should rest. Pay attention to your body."

But before that, I still want to ask, how do you feel after the test today? Especially What do you think if one of the ten teams is absent today?"
Cameron has always been famous for his outspokenness in the paddock. Many drivers will look at the honor of the team and maintain the face of the sponsors to establish their image firmly.
But Cameron can say whatever he wants, curse people if he wants to, and beat people if he wants to.When he participated in the F1 competition in his first year, he won the championship once, but lost the podium because another slow car did not evade in time.
Even a rational person would lose control in such a situation. After getting off the racing car, the violent Cameron rushed directly to the opponent's pit stop, grabbed the opponent's collar and greeted the opponent's face angrily.
Fortunately, the teams of both sides contained it in time to prevent the situation from deteriorating.
"What can I say?" Cameron asked back.
Just when she was about to continue asking questions, Cameron said casually: "A small, shoddy factory, and two wild people who don't know where to find them. Whether they are absent or not, it will not affect other people's lap times, right?"
Although Cameron is laughing, people can't feel a smile, but it makes people feel creepy.
It is rare to see such a half-smile on Cameron's face, as well as such a strange tone of voice.
Cameron is proud, but he has proud capital.He set the current lap record, and as the number one holder, he is naturally entitled to be proud.
The Mesken team does not support his arrogant and unruly temperament, but it cannot be ignored that it is Cameron's temperament that has attracted many car fans and many sponsors for the team.
"So, beautiful lady reporter." Cameron smiled ambiguously, "Can you give me your contact information?"
I thought everything was ready, but at a critical moment, the chain fell off.
Car parts were not delivered to Barcelona in time, but were delayed by two days, which also prevented the car from being fully assembled.
In the past few days, everyone in the team has been blaming themselves and reflecting on themselves, like a lingering dark cloud that has always shrouded the hotel.
Fabian took the initiative to comfort and encourage everyone. This is just a small problem and it doesn't matter.They can overcome, what they have to do is, do better in the future.
However, if such mistakes occur, the sense of distrust and self-confidence will be strengthened.Not only the team staff will think so, but also the drivers.
Jian Xing was excitedly preparing for the winter test on the second day, but the head of the team suddenly told Jian Xing that the car lacked the most critical parts.
Due to transportation problems, the remaining parts will be delayed for a few days. When he heard the news, he felt that the sky was falling apart.
How many days?
How many days is it?
A total of eight days of winter testing.
On February 2th, the Don team was still absent from the winter test.
There is always a lack of new teams on the Catalan circuit. Many team members seem to be used to it, and they are not optimistic about this new team.
The remaining car parts arrived in the early hours of February 2, which was another huge challenge for the team's mechanics and engineers.They need to fully assemble the two cars before dawn.
The more nervous you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. Fabian kept an eye on the whole process. Jian Xing originally wanted to check the situation, but Fabian refused.
Fabian believes that Jian Xing's appearance at this moment will increase the pressure on the team members.
Even though there was a tsunami in his heart, Jian Xing could only suppress the turbulent noise.
But confusion, panic, and uneasiness will still exist. He is afraid that the team will not be able to do it, and he is also afraid that there will be new mistakes in such a short period of time.
This kind of mistake from the outside world is the most unacceptable, because it is beyond his control.All he can do is drive the car as best he can, but accidents always happen.
The worse the conditions, the more you must keep calm.
Calm, calm, only absolute calm can maintain absolute concentration.
Jian Xing sat on the stone pier under the tree outside the hotel. The light here is not strong, and it is a corner, so few people pass by.It is also such a dim and unclear environment that is most suitable for mediating emotions.
Jian Xing's mobile phone was connected to the hotel's WiFi, and he was bored scrolling through social platforms on the Internet, and saw a private message sent to him by an unknown account.
This private message is ordinary, just a news forwarding page.Boring to open it, Jian Xing saw the enlarged close-up photo of Cameron.
With a random glance at the content, Jian Xing has no desire to continue.
He skillfully blocked this person, reported him, and posted other news again.
The surroundings gradually quieted down, and it was in such a state of complete silence that it was easy to remind people of some ghost stories.Somehow, these things that I don't want to recall and fear suddenly rush to my mind.
Jian Xing had goose bumps all over his body, and swallowed in his throat.The night wind was a bit cool, like a gust of wind in a certain environment.
Jian Xing suddenly regretted it, he shouldn't have come out and run around, he should have locked himself in the hotel room.
Now he was so scared that his legs were weak, but he didn't dare to stand up and go back, as if as soon as he stood up, he would encounter a supernatural event.
Silently chanting Buddhist scriptures in my heart, my fingers kept swiping the phone page, trying to search for some more positive things to refresh my eyes.
Unfortunately, as one wished, Jian Xing happened to find a promotional poster for a certain horror movie!
Jian Xing immediately buckled the phone upside down on his lap, shivering along his spine all the way to the back of his head, and finally went straight to Tianlinggai.For so many moments, he even thought he was in an ice cave.
It wasn't until a warm coat was put on the body that the chill suddenly dissipated.He was still undecided, and his nerves twitched from the sudden warmth.
"Cold?"
Jian Xing was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in a half-confused manner, unable to see the other party's face clearly under the dark light.But he could feel enough heat to melt all fear, as if as long as he was by this person's side, he would gain sanctuary.
The stone pier is not big enough to accommodate two people sitting down.
Lan Heng remained standing, wearing only a black sweater.The reason why Jian Xing felt warm was because the down jacket carried the temperature that belonged to Lan Heng.
Jian Xing's heart was still tense, but it loosened at a slow speed.He moved his fingertips slightly, shook his head stiffly and said, "It's not cold, you can wear it."
As Jian Xing said, he wanted to take off the down jacket, but Ke Lanheng moved one step ahead of him, pulling the neckline of the down jacket tight.Then he landed on his knees and slowly pulled the zipper up.
These hands are always very warm, whether it is a hot summer day or a cold winter night.Even if it is not an intimate touch, just a slight approach has a strong magnetic field.
Jian Xing is like a puppet without hands, his arms are trapped in the warm down jacket.He could only look down at the face, even if he couldn't see it clearly.
It smells very fragrant. Since the day he met Lan Heng, he hasn't changed the shower gel.This also caused Jian Xing to involuntarily think of the existence of Lan Heng when he smelled something like this.
Jian Xing said suddenly: "You are so smart."
Lan Heng asked "Hmm?" in confusion.
In the shroud of night and weakened sight, the senses of taste and hearing are particularly developed.
This reply was tactful and uplifting, with a faint hum, more like an unintentional temptation.
Jian Xing said with emotion: "You are worthy of being a top student."
Lan Heng seemed to be even more confused, the hand that finished zipping went down and brushed Jian Xing's outer thigh.
Jian Xing was only wearing jeans. Logically speaking, such a touch would not make him feel anything, but unfortunately, he felt a little hot.
Jian Xing moved his butt to the side, giving way to half of the stone pier, shook his arms along the way, and got his hands out of the hem of the down jacket.He patted the other half of the stone pier, and said generously, "Sit down."
Lan Heng understood Jian Xing's mood better than anyone else. Although he didn't show it, he was also looking forward to the winter test.It's not that he hasn't fantasized about this day, but he thinks it's too far away, like an unattainable fantasy.
When the fantasy became reality, he was hit in the head again, and he was forced to be dizzy.
When something happens, you should face it. If you want not to be defeated by the predicament, you can only face the predicament directly.
Lan Heng has a stupid mouth, even if he tries to chat with people, it is very boring.
The fitness coach strengthens the physical training of Lan Heng, formulates a reasonable formula, and strives to let Lan Heng have a "steel" body.
During the training period, Lan Heng often had nothing to say with the other party to practice his verbal expression.Every time the coach is very speechless, he can only be forced to have an awkward chat.
"There will be no more surprises."
When Lan Heng said this, he subconsciously turned his body sideways, which put Shi Dun'er, who was already small, into a predicament, and almost pushed Jian Xing out.
Fortunately, Lan Heng caught Jian Xing in time. Although he was separated by a heavy down jacket, he was lucky enough to touch the back of Jian Xing's cool hand.
The fleeting touch has the magic power to make people lose their soul.
Lan Heng sat up slightly, and moved his fingertips down.His fingers were longer than ordinary people's, so it was easy to touch the back of the other's hand exposed outside the down jacket.
With a light touch, it was like fireworks exploding on Jian Xing's scalp.He was a little nervous and looking forward to it, but Lan Heng never made any next move.
Until Lan Heng's fingertips moved slightly again, Jian Xing murmured like a ghost: "Didn't the car regulations prohibit holding hands?"
As soon as the words came out of the mouth, Jian Xing regretted it.
Finally, the ambiguous atmosphere was suddenly destroyed, and Jian Xing felt a little regretful.
As expected, Lan Heng took his hand back, and Jian Xing's heart was as complicated as an overturned bottle.Suddenly, a hoarse voice quietly drilled into the eardrum——
"What about kissing?"
