In a blink of an eye, Luo Jiayi has lived in Liu Yanzhi's house for more than a year.Zhao Fangfei's parents have also divorced, and her mother took Zhao Fangfei away to other places, while her three brothers and father stayed there.They still stayed in the small town and went to the experimental middle school.

For a time, it seemed that everything had changed, and at the same time it seemed that nothing had changed.

"After the final exam is over, I'm going to decide the paragraph." Luo Jiayi raised his head smugly.

Liu Yanzhi took the opportunity to move a chess piece, Luo Jia glanced at it from the corner of her eye, but said nothing.

"Can you do it?"

"The teacher said there shouldn't be a big problem." Her eyes became confused again: "But I haven't decided whether I should continue my studies when I have a fixed period. My mother is not educated, and she has always hoped that I can go to college."

But if she has a job, she won't need to spend her mother's compensation.

Liu Yanzhi remained silent.She still wanted her to go to school with her selfishly.

"Luo Jiayi, someone is looking for you outside." A classmate came over and reminded her.

"Okay, thank you." Luo Jiayi stood up.go outside.

Who is looking for her?Is there anyone around her that she doesn't know?Liu Yanzhi gritted her teeth and thought, got up and followed out.

It was a boy, a little taller than Luo Jiayi, stylishly dressed, and handsome.Only his face can be seen from this angle.He smiled and looked very gentle.

After they said a few words, Luo Jiayi turned around and walked towards the class.Liu Yanzhi turned her head in panic, and threw herself back on her seat.

The whole afternoon, Liu Yanzhi was distracted—who is that person?Why had she never heard her mention such a person?The way the boy looked at Luo Jiayi made her feel uncomfortable, as if something was losing control.

When returning home in the afternoon, Liu Yanzhi tried to ask who Luo Jiayi was, but she saw through her intentions within a few words.

"It's my former neighbor. We used to play together when I was a child." Luo Jiayi confessed frankly.

"Then why did he come to see you suddenly?" Liu Yanzhi asked.

Luo Jiayi also showed some confusion on his face: "I don't know, he just kept saying that he was worried about me. Now that he saw it, it made him think about it."

"Then, does that man like you?" Liu Yanzhi's voice was fierce.Luo Jia took a look at her and saw that she was like a cat with teeth and claws, so she couldn't help but pat her on the head.

"He seems to think I like him," she replied.

"So do you like it?" Liu Yanzhi continued to press.

"His imagination has always been very rich." Luo Jiayi said lightly.

Liu Yanzhi suddenly became happy, took out a lollipop from her pocket and handed it to her as a reward.Then he took one in his mouth, happily quickened his pace, and walked in front.

A little warmth hit her palm, she looked down, it was Luo Jiayi's little finger, curled up nervously, stretched out to hook hers.

Liu Yanzhi smiled secretly, and held her tightly with open palms.

As soon as Luo Jia didn't look at her, her cheeks turned red.

"Mom, we're back..." Liu Yanzhi flew into the house like a happy bird.In the living room sat a strange middle-aged man.She swallowed the second half of the sentence, and froze in place at a loss.

"What's the matter?" Luo Jiayi asked, squeezing in from behind her.

"Jiayi." The man called her.

She bit her lip tightly, and stared at the young boy standing beside the man with fierce eyes that Liu Yanzhi had never seen before—the boy who came to look for her that morning.

Liu Yanzhi's mother, Luo Jiayi, and a strange man stayed in the living room for a long time.Liu Yanzhi couldn't hear their conversation through the door, and she didn't want to study, so she changed into her pajamas and lay down on the bed.Since Luo Jia moved in, the single bed in her room has been replaced with bunk beds.She stared at the empty upper berth with her eyes wide open, without feeling sleepy.

Finally, the big iron door in the living room was closed heavily, and someone opened the door of her room and came in and sat down beside her.

"Is that person your father?" Liu Yanzhi turned over.

Luo Jiayi didn't speak, but her eyes had already given the answer.She bowed her head just like she did in the class back then, her shoulders shrunk inward, like a glass doll that could break when hit.

"Come up." Liu Yanzhi lifted the quilt.Luo Jiayi hesitated for a moment, took off his shoes, and lay down.

Liu Yanzhi reached out and hugged her shoulder weakly, and patted her with her fingers.

"Is he here to pick you up?" she asked in a low voice.

"I don't want to go with him." Luo Jiayi's shoulders trembled slightly.

"If you don't want to leave, don't leave. I will support you forever." Liu Yanzhi started talking nonsense again, but Luo Jia was very pleased with what she heard.She moved her head a little towards her, tentatively touching her forehead.Seeing this, Liu Yanzhi crawled into her arms and hugged her tightly.

The heat from her body was continuously transmitted to Luo Jiayi, which made her regain some strength.

"The dance my mother danced is called "Dream Butterfly", which is taken from the allusion of 'Zhuang Zhou's Dream Butterfly'."

"She met him when she was dancing that dance. A man with a handsome appearance, who can be arty, seems very romantic, and has a good family background."

Everything is so natural.

"Later, my mother found out that he was married, so she left him, his house and money, and took me to another city, but his wife still found her. In the end, my mother took me to hide here." Her voice Very calm.

"My mother never hurt anyone." This sentence is still her heart disease.

"Of course, Auntie is such a good person." Liu Yanzhi heard her heart beating violently, it seemed to be beating out of her chest.

"He sent me to learn go and violin, because his wife's son learned those two things. My mother always wanted the best for me, so even if she had two jobs, she would send me there."

"Swallow." She called her.

"What?" Liu Yanzhi looked up and saw her sharp and stubborn jawline.Her voice was light and ethereal like a gust of ethereal wind: "Look, 'Dream' and 'Butterfly' are much alike, colorful and fluttering like immortals, but they are broken with one blow, and their lives are so short."

She looked down at her: "Didn't you say that I am like a butterfly..."

Her expression was hidden in the darkness, except for the pathological frenzy in her two bright black eyes, shining brightly in the dark night.She was like a dying, comeback man, mad in the last moments of her life.For some reason, Liu Yanzhi's head became hot, she raised her face, and bumped her with her lips.It hurts a bit and doesn't taste good.Luo Jia was stunned for a moment, and then bit her bitingly not to be outdone.The two ran amok in the dark night, like tigers vying for territory, until the taste of blood filled their mouths, and they separated panting.

"You are not allowed to become a butterfly." Liu Yanzhi ordered her arrogantly, seeing her cold eyes, her mind cooled down again, and she tried to retreat in a panic.

Luo Jiayi's hand was still on her shoulder, he just gently embraced her, and then stuffed her into his arms again.

"I promise you, you are not allowed to go." She said timidly in her ear.

Liu Yanzhi curled her lips into a smile in the night, and put her hand on hers: "Okay."
