evening tide

In the middle of the night, Chao Xin woke up from the heat, reached out to turn on the light, and found that the electricity was out.

She wasn't sure whether it was a power outage or a power outage, or a trip. It shouldn't be a power outage, and she didn't receive a notification from the community property.

So she took out her mobile phone, bought electricity for 500 yuan, and then went out to check the switch. If there was no trip, it should be that the electricity was used up, and she could continue to use it after a while.

So she turned on the flashlight of her mobile phone again, went home, closed the door, and walked to the master bedroom.

Passing by the second bedroom, the door opened, and Xiang Wan stood at the door, with her hair draped, and asked her softly, "What's wrong?"

"Why didn't you sleep?" Chao Xin walked over and stood in front of her.

Xiang Wan was also greedy for the cold, unbuttoned a few pajamas, and the undulations under the porcelain-colored skin were faintly visible. Standing in the moonlight at this moment, it was like entering a scholar's dream.

Xiang Wan said, "I can't sleep."

After she finished speaking, she brushed her long hair aside.

The night amplifies hearing, and two people can hear each other's breathing.

Chao Xin vaguely noticed that her neckline was not turned well, and wanted to reach out to tidy it up for her, but he lifted it up and put it down again.

"Can't sleep, so come out to find someone?" She asked Xiang Wan.

The voice was very magnetic. She had asked about the card that was afraid of the dark before, but this time the tone was level.

Xiang Wan also looked at her long curly hair like a waterfall. He couldn't sleep because he was used to looking for someone, especially when it was hot, the maidservant who kept watch at night would shake her a small fan.

Through the faint light, she could see the thin beads of sweat on Chao Xin's collarbone.

So she asked, "Teacher Chao, are you hot?"

"Woke up by the heat." Chao Xin said, "The house is out of electricity, but it will be here soon."

"how long?"

"Half an hour?" According to experience, recharging late at night is usually not that fast.

"Then, I'll fan you." Xiang Wan turned his head and took a round fan from the bed.

Chao Xin thought it was a little funny, she had never seen a girl in her early twenties who had air-conditioning in and out, and even had a small fan next to her body.What is the habit of this age?

But when it was on Xiang Wan, she wasn't very surprised. She always felt that Xiang Wan was young and old.

It's not old-fashioned and old, it's like an aged antique, with the halo of time.

Waves of the warm wind patted on her and Xiang Wan's chests, making their hair tingly and numb. Chao Xin felt itchy, so he followed Xiang Wan's example and moved his hair aside. His shoulders moved, and the neckline of his pajamas slide down.

Reach for the handle, and use the fan handle to resist the tendency of the neckline to slip.

Chao Xin glanced at her, Xiang Wan exerted a little force, holding the collar with his fan bone, and slowly lifted it up, and then Chao Xin's skin turned red again.

Chao Xin stretched out his hand and picked it up himself: "Thank you."

"Crack." The lights were brightly lit, the air conditioner beeped a few times, and the refrigerator started humming again.

Xiang Wan narrowed his eyes, withdrew his hand, took the sudden brilliance into his eyes, and then the old god waved a small fan for himself on the ground, with orchid fingers and white wrists, like an ancient lady leaning against the door.

Chao Xin stood up straight: "There's a call, go to sleep."

As he said that, he was about to turn around, Xiang Wan also turned his head very reservedly, held the doorknob, and wanted to close the door.

But in the next second, she turned her head and said softly, "Teacher Chao, let's shake hands."

"What?" Chao Xin frowned.

Xiang Wan tilted his head and looked at her intently.

Chao Xin stretched out her hand, held Xiang Wan lightly, weighed it with her fingertips, as if a dragonfly touched water, and then she said, "Okay."

"Good night."

Chao Xin withdrew her hand, feeling baffled, but she didn't search further, shrugged and turned the air conditioner down a bit, and lay down on the bed.

The two lived in peace and politeness, which made that night like an absurd and beautiful dream. Three days later, Papai came back.

Chao Xin drove to the airport to pick her up, and Xiang Wan was with her.

I specially bought a bouquet of flowers, because Paipai really wanted to be a big star and enjoy the feeling of being picked up at the airport.

They arrived a bit late, and before they waited for a while at the exit, the elementary school students from the summer camp came out in groups. Papai galloped to the front, two degrees darker, with small bodies carrying big bags, with arms outstretched run over here.

"mom--!"

Everyone looked sideways, Chao Xin supported his forehead in his heart.

But when the cards collided with her arms, she smiled again, helped her to stand upright, and put a finger on her shoulder: "Don't come near me."

"Why?" Papai was aggrieved.

"You've been on a plane for a long time, it stinks."

Pa Pai smelled his arm, and wanted to cry again. How could he say that a pure and clean little girl stinks when we meet again after a long absence.

After sniffling, I remembered to say hello to Xiang Wan, "Teacher Xiang."

This sound was polite and polite, but also a little timid.

I was already recalling the first sentence of "Shi Shuo" in my heart.

But Xiang Wan was very gentle, with her hair in a round bun, she said to her, "Welcome back, Xiaopaipai."

Whispering softly, just like seeing her for the first time, Pa Pai's heart suddenly softened, and he secretly held Xiao Hua.

"Hold." Chao Xin handed her the sunflower, "I'll tell the teacher, and I won't follow the team, let's go home directly."

"it is good."

Pa Pai was hugging the flowers, watching her walk aside, he suddenly felt that after 20 days of separation, his aunt was not the same, because she glanced at Xiang Wan before she left, and that look was kind of like that.

A woman's intuition, Papai is young, only half cultivated, but it is still sufficient.

So she raised her face and asked Xiang Wan: "Teacher Xiang, how are you doing at home?"

"Very good." Xiang Wan smiled.

"Did Chao Xinxin bully you?"

"Bully?"

"Will she stipulate that you can only eat chocolate once a week and drink one can of iced Coke a month?" Papai was curious.

"No." Xiang Wan shook his head.

The mouth of the card shrank, and the sunflowers in his hand were no longer fragrant.

"Excuse me, is my bedroom still my bedroom?" the little milk said in a nonchalant voice.

Xiang Wan didn't understand: "Why do you ask that?"

"My bedroom faces south. When choosing two bedrooms, Chao Xin said mine was better. I thought she was going to live in it for you."

"Of course I live in the empty room, why would you give me yours?"

"Because," Paipai thought of the benefactor and said, but it was hard to say clearly, "You are a very important person to our family."

They can use the rent to support their mother and daughter.

"Very important person?" Xiang Wanxin missed half a beat, and glanced at Chao Xin who was walking up, his figure was swaying and his aura fell to the ground.

"Who said that?" She looked at Chao Xin and asked Xiang Paipai in a low voice.

"What Chao Xin said, I thought she would hold you in her palm."

"Hold it in...the palm of your hand?" Xiang Wan frowned and blinked at the card.

Papai bit his lip, tilted his head in thought, is that how he said he cherished it?In the "Girl in Flower Season" I watched before the holiday, there is this sentence anyway.

Papai nodded affirmatively, then went over to hang on Chao Xintui's luggage cart.

"Go home!" She happily climbed onto the luggage cart and slid two or three steps.
