Chapter 12 Honey Cake and Pineapple Cake

Jiang Yi wanted to be silent, but he still couldn't help but glanced at Jin Rong's pretty side face, and then started talking: "I thought you were in the piano room."

"It's raining, I want to take an umbrella." Jin Rong said lightly.

"Yeah." Jiang Yi lowered his head and swallowed all the words he wanted to ask.For example, why do you want to smoke again, why you don't keep your promises, why you lie, and so on.

Jin Rong didn't know what he was thinking, but he could tell that he was in a bad mood.

"Don't like rainy days?" Jin Rong asked.He noticed Jiang Yi's expression, from sluggish to a little radiant, and when he met his gaze, he slowly regained his senses.

"No," Jiang Yi smiled, "I'm a little tired moving the chair today."

"What are you moving the chair for?"

"There is a lecture in the gymnasium, and I need to move chairs to fill it up."

Jin Rong and Jiang Yi chatted without saying a word, and asked what kind of lectures the gymnasium was holding, could art students listen to them.

"Okay, I will probably notify you tomorrow."

After chatting for a while, Jiang Yi seemed to let his guard down.Just now he didn't dare to look at Jin Rong more, but now he still cast his probing and unwilling eyes on him.He gritted his teeth once, but couldn't get out of the mouth the first time, but couldn't help asking the second time: "Today on the fifth floor..."

"I don't smoke."

"Ok?"

Jin Rong took off the umbrella in his hand and turned it around.He said word by word: "I don't smoke, Jiang Yi."

"I know." Jiang Yi suddenly laughed, "We agreed, you said you won't smoke anymore."

"So you've been so depressed because you suspect I'm smoking again?"

Jiang Yi's thoughts were exposed, he just mentioned "fifth floor", but he didn't expect that Jin Rong could easily see through him.Thinking about it, he is so easy to guess, he puts everything on his face, and others can tell what he is obsessed with at a glance.

"No." At this point, Jiang Yi still wanted to quibble to save a little face, "I just saw you on the fifth floor, just curious."

Jin Rong opened the umbrella, the pure black umbrella surface was so dry that it hadn't been exposed to any rain.He suddenly said, "Let's go together."

This sentence is not an interrogative sentence, but a declarative sentence.Jin Rong's voice has always been light, not strong, not with strong colors.

Jiang Yi looked at his hand holding the umbrella, the index finger was curled up against the umbrella stand, and the remaining four fingers were holding it. The contrast of white and black was dazzling and eye-catching.

"Let's go?" Jin Rong asked again.

Jiang Yi was willing to follow him.

Rainwater slanted into Jiang Yi's school uniform, he hid a little more under the umbrella, and touched Jin Rong's shoulder.Jin Rong is not short, but he looks inexplicably petite. Maybe in Jiang Yi's eyes, anyone can be regarded as "petite".In the past, Jiang Yi was always alone because he was too tall to hold an umbrella with others, but today was the first time he shared an umbrella with others.

Even if he lowered his head to accommodate Jin Rong.

"Drenched in the rain?" Jin Rong glanced at him, and he held the umbrella higher, trying to take care of Jiang Yi's feelings.

But Jiang Yi was already satisfied: "It's okay, just do it according to your mood."

Jin Rong's mood is just a little higher.

The school is located on a high ground. When walking outside, the rainwater continuously rushes to the gate, and the edges of the shoes are wet with every step.Jiang Yi was so concerned about Jin Rong that he didn't want to step into the water and make a lot of splashes.The water splashed on the clothes like pearls and jade, and also splashed Jin Rong's school uniform and trousers.

It was originally an embarrassing thing, but they just had an inexplicable tacit understanding and laughed together.Jiang Yi smiled silly, Jin Rong was a little more serious, and asked him: "Do you like to destroy so much?"

"I'm sorry." Jiang Yi said, "I'm sorry!"

Jin Rong still remembers the circle of friends posted by Jin Shiyuan. She said that she really wanted to eat the honey cake at the school gate.

When passing by the cake shop, Jin Rong still hesitated.But after hesitating for half a second, he took Jiang Yi into the shop.

"What do you need, classmate?" The clerk asked enthusiastically as soon as she entered the door.

Jin Rong looked around the glass cabinet at the front desk, and there was a row of honey cakes inside, which seemed to be freshly baked and exuded a strong aroma.

"Help me get some of this." Jin Rong pointed to the honey cake and said, "Not too much, just enough for one person."

He waited for the clerk to pack the cake for him, and when he looked back at Jiang Yi, Jiang Yi was lying on the glass door looking at the pineapple cake inside.

Jiang Yi knew that Jin Rong's gaze had fallen, and simply exclaimed: "Pineapple cake!"

"Do you like it?" Jin Rong walked up to him, seeing how he liked it so much, and asked the clerk to bring him a box.

Jiang Yi was flattered: "Did you buy it for me?"

"correct."

This is the second time Jiang Yi thinks that Jin Rong's way of paying the bill is particularly good-looking.He opened the payment QR code seemingly casually, handed it to the clerk with his fingertips, and scanned it with a beep.

Then Jin Rong picked up the bag of pineapple cake and gave it to Jiang Yi: "Give it to you."

Jiang Yi regarded this bag of pineapple cakes as a treasure, so he opened it up and gave one to Jin Rong, but it was a pity that he didn't eat it.

"Keep it for yourself, you don't need to thank me." Jin Rong walked to the door of the store and opened the huge umbrella that can accommodate two people, "I'll take you home."

Jiang Yi held the bag of pineapple cakes.

At that moment, the last trace of summer heat swept through his mind, a little hot and a little cold.His mind was blank for three seconds, and his attention was focused on Jin Rong's face: "Okay, thank you."

Jiang Yi is a person of pure love, and the pure love here includes all the love.Love, friendship, family affection, if someone treats him better, he will immediately take care of him and spend a hundred times to treat this person well.

Today Jin Rong gave him a box of pineapple cakes, and he had already thought about what to give Jin Rong at that moment.

It was still raining heavily, and at the intersection again, Jiang Yi's house was in the opposite direction of Jin Rong's house.Jin Rong didn't ask any more questions, and didn't stop there. He went straight to Jiang Yi's house and asked halfway through, "Your home, won't you lead the way?"

Jiang Yi held the pineapple cake in his hand, and then took the umbrella from Jin Rong's hand. It was a heavy umbrella. After holding it for a long time, Jin Rong's fingers were already red from being strangled.

"My home is quite far away." Jiang Yi added, "Do you still want to stay with me?"

"Let's go."

Jiang Yi couldn't help but want to chatter. Seeing the rain under his feet, he remembered Jin Rong asking him if he didn't like rainy days. Only now did he seriously explain: "Actually, I like rainy days very much."

The topic was too off topic, and Jin Rong hadn't reacted yet.

"Let me tell you, I actually like rainy days very much!" He said again in an insignificant whisper, "Starting from today."

"It's good on a rainy day." Jin Rong laughed, his smile was inexplicably weak, sleepy, unable to arouse energy.

He separated from Jiang Yi at the gate of the community, because the community where Jiang Yi lived was too big, and he was afraid that Jin Rong would not be able to find a way out after entering, so he did not force him to continue sending him off.Jiang Yi held the bag of pineapple cakes in his arms, the paper bag was wet from the rain and turned dark, and the other side was still dry.

"You have to take a shower after you get home, and you can't catch a cold." Jiang Yi suddenly mentioned it.

Jin Rong thought he was talking to himself, lowered his head and shook off the water drops on the edge of his shoes, but ignored him.Jiang Yi said again: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

"say what?"

"I said," Jiang Yi looked at Jin Rong's amber eyes, and he could still see his own shadow when he got closer, "You have to take a bath after you go home, and you can't catch a cold."

Jin Rong was a little sluggish, he chewed this sentence over and over in his mind, without much reaction, just nodded: "Got it."

"Thank you for the pineapple cake."

Jin Rong said lightly, "You're welcome", turned around and held up an umbrella to leave.He sensed that Jiang Yi had been looking at him under the eaves of the guard, watching his back leave, and the rain fell on his umbrella.

At that corner, he sighed softly, turned sideways and looked back again.Jiang Yi was still there, waving goodbye to him.

"Be careful on the road, and tell me when you get home."

Jin Rong didn't make a sound, but there was a hint of "I got it" in his eyes, and he left with an umbrella.

The rain is getting smaller and smaller, and the sound of hitting the umbrella is getting smaller and smaller.Jin Rong passed by the vending machine where he often stops again. The drinks inside have been replaced with new ones, but the can of Coke is always there.

Jin Rong doesn't like drinking canned drinks because he can't open the can.

His fingertips slid across the glass door and landed on the can of Coke in sight.Then, in a strange way, he pressed the "Coke" button, paid the bill, and rolled out a can of Coke.

It's ice-cold, with many drops of water condensed, and it feels cold when you hold it in your hand.

He can't open a can, and he doesn't bother to open it.

Jin Rong put the Coke in his schoolbag and hid it under the honey cakes. The water drops quickly soaked the cover of the etude book.

He didn't care.

It's raining heavily again, and I don't know when it will stop.

He went home very early, and the house was quiet, except for "Angkor Wat" in Jin Shiyuan's room, there was no sound at all.

Jin Rong quietly closed the door, changed his slippers, and went back to his room first.He was sitting on the piano bench, his schoolbag was damp from the rain, but luckily it was still dry inside, and the bag of honey cake was still intact.

"Two people are so crowded, it's hard to accommodate more secrets, and they can't hold on tight, and become more stubborn..."

Jin Rong approached his room and caught a glimpse of Jin Shiyuan's soft back.She nestled on the chair, with her hands hanging on the armrests, and a gold bracelet hung on her wrist, which made her wrist look extravagant.It was Fang Yizhe's 35th birthday present to her.

Jin Shiyuan gave birth to him very early, and he is not yet 40 years old.She pays great attention to maintenance and looks young, not like 36 years old.

"Forgive you for being too rational..."

Jin Shiyuan squinted his eyes, meeting Jin Rong's eyes.

She didn't take the initiative to talk to Jin Rong, and Jin Rong didn't take the initiative to talk.They were silently fighting, but in the end Jin Rong was the first to show weakness: "Mom."

"I'm home."

Jin Rong held the bag of honey cakes in his hand, without saying anything, just put it on Jin Shiyuan's bedside table.

The silence continued, Jin Rong turned around and went out, stopped in front of the door, he wanted to say something.

Today is a rainy day, and Fang Yizhe will not come here on a rainy day.Counting down every rainy day in these years, between thunder and lightning, Jin Shiyuan survived alone.

She looked at Jin Rong's figure: "Xiao Rong, do you think I'm disgusting?"

Jin Rong gave her half of his eyes.

"In your eyes, what kind of person is your mother?"

Jin Rong couldn't bear to look at her, she was more emaciated than ever, maybe because she didn't sleep well in the middle of the night, and was frightened by the thunder during the day, now she was weak when she was angry.

But he still looked directly at her, and instead of answering her question directly, he said, "I can also buy you a honey cake."

"Thank you."

Jin Rong lowered his head. At that moment, he wanted to persuade Jin Shiyuan not to do wrong things again, not to be a third party who destroyed other people's families.

but……

But he looked at Jin Shiyuan's expression, as if the whole world had abandoned her, and she could only get a little respite from Fang Yizhe.

"If you want honey cake, I will buy it for you every day." Jin Rong said again.

Jin Shiyuan shook his head: "You are my son."

Jin Rong couldn't give what she wanted.In other words, everything she did was for Jin Rong.

She looked at the withered red rose on the bedside table. A few leaves had already fallen on the table, and she curled up.

"Go to practice the piano." Jin Shiyuan said.
