Still tide

No one else noticed the movement between the two of them. Chen Chao stood on his unbroken leg, put his arm on his knee, and looked at Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun's intention to watch the excitement was a bit obvious with a sting in his smile, he obviously knew everything.

Chen Chao lowered his gaze, suddenly chuckled, and said, "I'll pay you back."

Miao Jiayan didn't hear the first half of Jiang Xun's sentence, but only heard the second half of Chen Chao's sentence, and looked up at the two of them.

Jiang Xun was even more delighted, said "Yo", and said to Chen Chao: "What are you crazy about here?"

Miao Jiayan couldn't understand what they said, Chen Chao still had the smile in his eyes and glanced at him.Chen Chao was very handsome when he smiled and looked at people. Miao Jiayan still had a thin piece of lozenge in his mouth that was broken by his teeth.The refreshing coolness of the lozenge burst out weakly in an instant, and the coolness traveled from the tip of the tongue to the throat.

At this moment, Miao Jiayan felt that all her thoughts had nowhere to hide under Chen Chaoran's seemingly casual gaze with a smile on her face.

Jiang Xun couldn't say more, as Uncle Chen was still there, so if he said more, he would hear something later.And there is still business today. There are a lot of shipments today, and there must be someone on site.

After sitting for a while, Jiang Xun left with Miao Jiayan, and called Miao Jiayan before leaving, "Let's go, Miao Er."

Miao Jiayan stood up, and Jiang Xun said, "Go earn money."

Chen Chao was talking to someone on his mobile phone at the time, and the school had something to ask him for.Miao Jiayan walked over to him and said, "I'm leaving, Brother Chao?"

"Go." Chen Chao looked up at him and asked, "Just wear this?"

Miao Jiayan is wearing short-sleeved shorts and slippers that she casually puts on in the morning and wears at home.Miao Jiayan's mind has been a little wandering today, and her reaction is slow: "What's the matter?"

Chen Chao reminded, "The sun is big."

Only then did Miao Jiayan come to her senses, and hurriedly said, "I'll go back and change my clothes, and I need to wear sunscreen."

"Well," Chen Chao said to him with soft eyes, "Go."

Miao Jiayan spent this summer carefully, with sun protection clothing, sun hats, and parasols all at hand.Miao Jiayan dedicated himself to sun protection if he was not allowed to get tanned, but today he was in a panic, if Chen Chao hadn't reminded him, he might have really forgotten.

If she really went out to bask in the sun for a day and came back, Miao Jiayan would be finished at night, and she would probably have to soak herself in a mask. The sun protection this summer was for nothing, and she would have to be scolded when she went to the photographer.

When Miao Jiayan stepped out of the yard, her heart was still pounding.He couldn't tell why he jumped, maybe it was because of the small painting last night, maybe it was because of Chen Chao's smiling glance, or maybe it was because Chen Chao calmly and calmly reminded him to protect himself from the sun just now.

He always felt that Chen Chao was different today, but looking back, he was obviously like this during this period of time.

"Niu'er." Miao Jiayan stood behind and watched the delivery order, and Jiang Xun called him.

Miao Jiayan turned her head with a "hey".

Jiang Xun came over and said, "Brother told you."

"Tell me what?" Miao Jiayan asked.

Jiang Xun said, "Don't be so dazed, be smart."

Miao Jiayan didn't understand, Jiang Xun said again: "Don't be like a small piece of wood, use your brain more."

Miao Jiayan isn't stupid, she just doesn't know how to turn corners, and she has a solid heart.He didn't even know what Jiang Xun was talking about, it was inexplicable.

Jiang Xun flicked on the top of his head, and said with a "thud", "Whatever you want, you have to find a way to get it."

Miao Jiayan immediately said, "I don't want anything."

Jiang Xun choked him so much that his brain ached, and he couldn't understand Miao Jiayan even if he turned a little corner.But Jiang Xun didn't want to explain too clearly about this matter, so he didn't want to explain it too clearly after a little reminder, leaving the straight man and Xiaomu to figure it out on their own.

I don't know if Xiao Mutou realizes it or not. I guess it's too much, but the straight man must be fast.

The goods delivered that day were taken away by the car in the afternoon. When Miao Jiayan and Jiang searched back in the evening, they found that only Chen Guangda was left in the room.

"Uncle, where's Brother Chao?" Miao Jiayan asked in surprise.

Chen Guangda pointed to the upstairs, and said, "My legs can go down to the ground, and I'm going back to my room."

Miao Jiayan's eyes widened: "Go upstairs?"

"Ah," Chen Guangda sighed, "I think there are too many mosquitoes downstairs."

Miao Jiayan turned around and left, Chen Chao couldn't use his legs, and he was too much moving upstairs.Miao Jiayan ran upstairs, Chen Chao was sitting on the bed, and the younger brother was standing by the window with earphones on to talk to Xinxin.

"Are you back?" Chen Chao heard him coming up and greeted him.

"Why did you come up?" Miao Jiayan looked at his feet, "Can you go upstairs?"

"It's okay," Chen Chao said indifferently, "The mosquitoes downstairs are about to eat me."

Jiang Xun came up and said, "Then I will stay with you tonight."

Chen Chao said "OK".

Miao Jiayan wanted to say that I'll live too, but the words turned around and swallowed back.

When Chen Chao came up, the little brother didn't have to sleep with Chen Guangda anymore, he slept in the single bed before Chen Chao.

Jiang Xun was sleeping on the floor next to Chen Chao's bed, shaking his legs and sighing, "It's so comfortable, it's the first time I found sleeping on the floor so comfortable."

"Ding Wentao's favorite bed," Chen Chao looked at the phone, talking to Jiang Xun, "he wouldn't even be able to squeeze in you."

"He can't come back, he went out to play, or you will laugh at you when he hasn't come back?" Jiang Xun laughed, "I can't join in the fun without him."

Chen Chao watched Miao Jiayan's circle of friends on his mobile phone. The frequency of his post status is very low, and it is not bad to post one in three or two months.Posting on Moments is different from posting on Weibo. There are not many photos in Moments. Even if there are, they are just taking pictures of food and scenery. There are very few photos of himself.

Chen Chao slid down casually, and after swiping through it, he opened Miao Jiayan's chat box, and sent a message: Are you going to deliver the goods tomorrow?

Miao Jiayan replied in seconds: I'm going, but you don't have to stay there all the time, just go and have a look.

"It's cooler here than downstairs, and there's still a little wind." Jiang Xun put his feet up on Chen Chao's bed and said comfortably, "I said Ding Wentao would like to live here so much."

-knew.

Chen Chao sent a reply on his mobile phone, and said to Jiang Xun, "Then you can stay for a few more days."

"No, there are still things to do." Jiang Xun said, "I have to go back after two days with you, a lot of things."

Miao Jiayan responded to Chen Chao with an "hmm" expression on WeChat, and the little frog nodded foolishly.

Chen Chao said: Such a silly picture.

Miao Jiayan:!

Miao Jiayan: Isn't it cute?

After a few minutes, Chen Chao also sent an emoji of "hmmmm", which is a stick figure of a little pink rabbit.

Miao Jiayan sat on the bed and was knocked down right then.

Miao Jiayan replied immediately: You are still cute.

Chen Chao said something to Jiang Xun, and then looked down at his phone.

— Miao Jiayan withdrew a message.

Miao Jiayan: You are still so cute!

Chen Chao: Withdraw what?

Miao Jiayan: There is a typo.

Chen Chao went upstairs to sleep at night and spent the day downstairs with his father. If Chen Chao came down late, Chen Guangda would call him.

These few nights, Jiang Xun and Chen Chao lived together. On the surface, Miao Jiayan lived at home by herself, but in fact, these two people went to Chencang secretly, talking to each other on WeChat every night.

They haven't spoken so much in the past few years combined.

Jiang Xun had to leave tomorrow, and he stayed for several days longer than expected, so it was impossible not to go back.

"School will start in more than ten days. If you don't finish a lot of things before the start of school, you won't know that the Year of the Monkey will be overwhelmed." Jiang Xun flipped through the memo on his phone, "I guess Miaoer can't go with me, I will go by myself. "

There was a message on the phone, Chen Chao looked down.

Miao Jiayan: Brother Chao, when are you leaving?

As soon as the two sides unite, Chen Chao is like the oil bottle that delays the business.

The mood was quite delicate for a while, Chen Chao replied: ...

Miao Jiayan was counting the days over there, and school would start in less than half a month. Brother Chao didn't know if he could take a plane with his feet, and he didn't know if he could go back and forth on the bed in the school dormitory.

Seeing Chen Chao's "...", Miao Jiayan didn't notice it, and continued to ask: Brother Chao, have you booked the ticket yet?It is difficult to book a flight ticket when the school starts.

Chen Chao looked at this, with a blank face, and replied: .

His displeasure was obvious enough, but Miao Jiayan over there was still stuck in her own melancholy. Although she felt that Chen Chao was a little cold, she didn't think much about it, mainly because he didn't know about Jiang Looking for something to say to go.

Miao Jiayan had long been used to parting with Chen Chao over the years, but this time she was extremely sad.

Neither of the two posted anything, and the chat session that had been going on every night was suspended this night.One looked at the ticket with a sulky face, and the other counted the time reluctantly.

The next day Jiang Xun left, Miao Jiayan consciously went back at night to hug the pillow and quilt, but Chen Chao had no intention of going upstairs.

Miao Jiayan could only sit beside Chen Chao's bed with her pillows in her arms. Uncle Chen and younger brother were already on the other side of the bed ready to sleep, so Miao Jiayan asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going upstairs today?"

Chen Chao drooped his eyelids and didn't speak.

Miao Jiayan was not sure what he meant, but felt that Chen Chao seemed not very happy today.

"Can't you go up?" The younger brother yawned over there and said, "If you want to go upstairs, I'll wait for you for a while. If you don't, I'll sleep here."

Miao Jiayan looked at Chen Chao, wanting to ask but dare not.

Chen Chao didn't say a word, raised his hand in silence to unplug the charger beside the bed, and slowly rolled up.Miao Jiayan immediately stood up, picked up Chen Chao's phone, and reached out to him.

He intended to take the charger, but Chen Chao looked at his hand, paused for a moment, then stretched out to hold it, and sat up holding his hand.

After going upstairs smoothly, Chen Chao stood in the bathroom washing up, Miao Jiayan still felt that the hand held by Chen Chao just now was faintly hot.

Chen Chao stood on one leg and brushed his teeth. Standing like this was very tiring. He leaned on the side of the sink with his free hand. The knuckles on his hand were clearly defined, and he tapped his index finger twice casually.

When Miao Jiayan came back from washing, Chen Chao still maintained the posture of sitting by the bed, not lying down yet.

Miao Jiayan hurriedly said, "Stop sitting, brother Chao, the time spent on foot control is too long."

Miao Jiayan's hair was not completely tied up, and a small lock fell around her neck.He had just washed his face, and the few strands of hair around him were wet.Chen Chao watched him walking back and forth, and suddenly said, "I've already booked the tickets."

Miao Jiayan paused, and it took several seconds before she said, "Ah... yes."

Chen Chao frowned indistinctly, and asked him, "Do you want me to leave early?"

"I didn't," Miao Jiayan hurriedly raised her head to deny, "How is it possible?"

Chen Chao's voice was obviously quite cold, but for some reason he seemed aggrieved: "I'm leaving next Friday."

Miao Jiayan lowered her head and replied "Yes".

The atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy. After turning off the lights, the two of them were silent with each other. The room was so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing.

"Is it cool?" Chen Chao asked.

Miao Jiayan replied: "It's not cold, I spread two layers of mattresses, and it's not hard."

Chen Chao stopped talking.

Miao Jiayan turned over and was lying on her side facing Chen Chao.Chen Chao also turned sideways and looked down at him.

"Do you have anything to tell me?" Chen Chao asked after clearing his throat.

Miao Jiayan asked "Huh?" in confusion at first, and after a while, said softly: "No."

The chat stopped here completely.

Chen Chao then turned around and turned his back to the outside.Miao Jiayan also became lying flat, lying flat under a blanket.

Chen Chao didn't move for a long time, wondering if he fell asleep.

Maybe Miao Jiayan didn't understand what Chen Chao was asking him, he was just a little sad.

A few minutes later, Chen Chao's cell phone vibrated beside the bed.

Chen Chao took it over and took a look.

There is a small red reminder on Miao Jiayan's profile picture.

Miao Jiayan: Are you asleep, Brother Chao?

Chen Chao replied: Not yet.

Miao Jiayan pursed her lips, typed slowly and sent a message: Are you coming back after you left?

After sending, he held the phone in his hand until it vibrated, and picked it up to look at it.

With a little temper, Chen Chao replied stubbornly: Nonsense.
