Lu Ming's ears heard the sound of pages turning, and a light, cold fragrance slipped into her nostrils.

The little girl woke up in a daze. She reached out and rubbed her eyes, and found that she had fallen asleep leaning against that person for a long time.

Lu Ming didn't have time to worry about why she fell asleep, and she suddenly found that the person she was leaning on seemed to be Xi Wang!

Lu Ming woke up immediately, she sat up straight suddenly and looked to the side in disbelief, only to see Xi Wang sitting upright looking at something.

She sensed that she woke up, and asked without squinting: "Are you awake?"

Lu Ming's face was hot for a while, he lowered his head and nodded: "Yes."

"Can you fall asleep while reading?" Xi Wang asked back.

Although the tone was light, without the slightest hint of harshness, it made Lu Ming nervous.

She didn't know how she fell asleep, maybe it was because she was lazy in the sun, and she spent too much brainpower reading and checking words, so she fell asleep unexpectedly.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Xi, I was wrong." Lu Ming didn't make excuses for himself, and obediently admitted his mistake, but Yu Guangli found that what Xi Wang was holding in his hand was nothing else, but his own notebook for memorizing new words.

Lu Ming immediately remembered his bad handwriting, and his already uneasy heart became even more uneasy.

Aunt Xi must have seen her notes, and she would be extremely disgusted.

Under Lu Ming's nervous gaze, Xi Wang put down the notebook in his hand, and said, "Practice with this copybook."

Lu Ming was shocked, and immediately nodded obediently, "Okay."

Xi Wang clicked on the original English version of "Jane Eyre" on the table: "This kind of book is too early for you, read it after increasing your vocabulary."

"En." Lu Ming still nodded obediently.

Xi Wang looked at the overly obedient little girl beside him, got up and walked towards the bookshelf.

She wore a golden velvet blue suspender skirt today. The skirt with high slits followed her as she walked, revealing a looming long leg, which was particularly eye-catching under the dim light.

Xi Wang's right shoulder was a little sore from Lu Ming's pillow for a while, and he changed his seldom-used left hand when holding the book.

She looked at the little girl on the paper in her hand, and suddenly thought of Lu Ming's pillow on her shoulder just now.

Her eyelashes are thicker than that of the little girl in the painting, and she looks cute and cute when she is asleep, so calm and peaceful that people can easily calm down.

Xi Wang thoughtfully averted his eyes without any trace, took out a few thin books bound in thread from the other side of the bookshelf, and walked back.

Xi Wang first put the thin thread-bound book in his hand in front of Lu Ming, and said, "Three books a day, and I will ask Aunt Wang to send you some pens and ink later, so you can practice hard."

Lu Ming wrote down Xi Wang's words, and nodded obediently and seriously.

Before she could thank her, Xi Wang put another book in front of her, "Read this."

This is a Chinese version of "Jane Eyre".

The dark blue book cover is simple and exquisite, and the two big characters in gold stamping are very beautiful on the book cover.

Lu Ming knew that Xi Wang knew that it was difficult for him to read the original English version, so he brought it for himself.

Holding this book as if she had found a treasure, she felt an indescribable joy in her heart.

Xi Wang: "Don't try to be quick, you have to have your own thoughts after reading it, and I will check."

Lu Ming was taken aback for a moment. In fact, this kind of task is assigned by the teacher during the winter and summer vacations.

It's just that the person he was facing this time was Xi Wang, which made Lu Ming feel a lot of tension.

Lu Ming's fingers lightly brushed the sharp and solid book cover, and he nodded, "Okay."

She will definitely read this book carefully and give Xi Wang a satisfactory answer.

Just as Lu Ming was about to say something to Xi Wang, there were several knocks on the door.

Aunt Wang's voice also sounded at this moment: "Miss, Miss Xiaolu, lunch is ready, do you want to eat it now?"

Xi Wang gave a "hmm" and replied, "Understood, let's do it."

"Yes." Aunt Wang replied respectfully, turned and left.

Xi Wang saw the different light in Lu Ming's eyes, and her voice was flat: "Put down the things and go eat first."

The conversation between the two was interrupted like this. Lu Ming watched Xi Wang who was walking towards the door without saying anything, and hurriedly put down the book in his hand and followed Xi Wang out of the Zangshu Pavilion.

Entering the bright corridor from the dim environment, Luming still felt uncomfortable for a moment.

She blinked a few times, watching the sunlight falling in from the window on one side, covering her vision with a layer of haze.

Xi Wang wasn't affected by the light at all, and half of his face didn't make a ripple, it was cold and dignified.

She walked on the stairs with a straight body, even though she was wearing slippers, she was still elegant and calm.

Lu Ming followed behind her, looking at Xi Wang's shadow cast on the ground, he felt inexplicably chasing her steps forward.

After lunch, Xi Wang was ready to go back to the company by car. Lu Ming stood in front of the window and watched Xi Wang leave quietly.

What was parked downstairs was not the black Maybach she had seen, but a more imposing Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The car door on Xi Wang's side was not closed yet, and he was talking with a man in a suit and leather shoes.

The long black dress was slightly lifted, and a part of the cold white ankle was exposed, which was particularly eye-catching in the world surrounded by black.

Lu Ming just stood in front of the window and watched Xi Wang quietly, watching the car drive out slowly, and only looked back when the car completely disappeared from sight.

She didn't know why Xi Wang came back suddenly, and she didn't know why she left in such a hurry.

She seems to be very busy. There are always various things to do in the company. Sometimes when she wakes up at midnight to go to the bathroom, she can still see the lights on the third floor upstairs.

I really hope that one day I can help Aunt Xi.

Lu Ming thought about it and sat down at the table, those beautifully packaged books and copybooks were quietly placed on her table.

Aunt Wang is always very meticulous, the copybooks are put together with the pen and ink, and the ink is filled for her.

Lu Ming put the pen and copybook on the side of the table with special care, where the big green onions were originally placed.Then carefully opened the "Jane Eyre".

Lu Ming found two simple words written on the lower right corner of the first pure white page.

—— Xi Wang.

The black pen and ink outlines a strong and unrestrained font, and the two delicate cursive characters are next to each other, not too compact nor too wide, which is extraordinarily beautiful on this pure white paper.

Lu Ming stared at these two characters for a long time, every look followed these strokes.

She took the notebook and pen that were put aside, and lightly traced on the paper, but found that she couldn't write the feeling of forgetfulness, and every frown and frown seemed extra deliberate.

Lu Ming knew that this was not a day's work, so he put on the cap of the pen and opened the book that she had already read a little, and read it from the beginning. Only then did Lu Ming realize that he had misunderstood a few places, so he hurriedly took the notes. Correct the notebook with new words and grammar.

As soon as I opened it, I found that the mistakes above had been corrected by Xi Wang.

Xi Wang's English writing is even more chic than Chinese, and the beautiful cursive style is clean and neat. Compared with Lu Ming's crooked little earthworms, it is a heaven and a world.

Lu Ming pursed his lower lip slightly, her Aunt Xi is really an excellent person in everything.

She thought that if she wanted to catch up with Xi Wang, she would have to use a lot of effort.

Time slowly passed as the pages of the book in the little girl's hands were turned, and slowly the sun was hanging on the top of the mountain.

Lu Ming read very slowly, until Jane Eyre left the orphanage, the setting sun was burning red in the sky.

At Lu's house, Lu Ming had no pocket money to buy books, let alone the opportunity to read such novels.She sat on the chair until her eyes were a little tired, then she reluctantly looked away.

The clouds outside the window floated in the red sky, and there was a piece of green grass below. A few sparrows flapped their wings and flew from one end of the tree to the other, looking as beautiful as they were drawn in a comic book.

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, looking out the window feeling refreshed.

Suddenly, she found that there was a part of the page with a particularly obvious separation, as if something was caught in it.

Curiosity prompted her to turn the book to that page, and two beautiful ink style bookmarks were quietly stacked in the gap of the book.

"Intellect sits still, holding the reins, and does not let emotion break free and lead itself into the abyss of desolation."

"Within the desolate and rocky borders, it seems to be a prison, the limit of exile."

This should be an excerpt from "Jane Eyre"...

Lu Ming thought, carefully looking at the words written on the dark background.

The black words are written on it in a flowing manner, and the gold-sprinkled background makes them extraordinarily imposing. The time was signed 13 years ago.

When Xi Wang was 15 years old like her.

Lu Ming couldn't help but see Xi Wang, who was still a high school student, leaning over the table and writing such sentences stroke by stroke.

Lu Ming seemed to have heard her heart, although he was immature, he still did not lose his momentum.

Xi Wang is still a fearsome existence even at the age of 15.

Lu Ming looked at the two bookmarks in his hands, hesitated and did not put them back in the book.

She opened the drawer, lifted up the neatly arranged things inside, and carefully and quietly put them at the bottom.

Undefined seeds are buried deep in the soil and slowly climb out fine roots.

Lu Ming pushed the drawer back, looked at the word "Xi Wang" on the blank page, and wanted to be the person who could stand side by side with Xi Wang.
