Inhabit you as a forest

At the end of September, the night of Yujiang River is already chilly, the cool wind blows the moonlight, and the whole city is looking for autumn.

Even a dog breed like Xiao Qi who is afraid of heat can sleep without turning on the air conditioner, and Sheng Qi's house is still running.

It was so cold that when Wen Lian walked in, even in pajamas, he couldn't bear the cold.I thought that someone is afraid of cold and heat, either forced to have cold hands and feet, or asked for cold hands and feet.

Sheng Qi lightly threw the blanket on her lap, and instead of sitting down together, leaned to the side to look at her phone.

With such skill, she has already trimmed her bangs on her forehead twice.

In terms of beauty, Sheng Qi has not changed, and Wen Lian smiles quietly from the bottom of her heart.

Xu Tongtong grabbed a ticket to come over on November, and was excitedly asking Sheng Qi if he had made any arrangements and what he planned to take her to eat.After replying to the message, Sheng Qi put away his phone and looked at Wen Lian.

She didn't care about being left alone, her face was as calm as a lake in the morning.

The dark blue pajamas, amber pupils, and straight black hair are more vivid and clear than the ones she has dreamed in these years.Even if she was sitting on the sofa, she never leaned back relaxed, but sat there with a good posture.

This kind of Wen Lian is a dignified and intellectual lady, but she is also the one who takes pictures of hickeys every day.

Don't be swayed by emotions.

Sheng Qi reminded herself again that no matter what Wen Lian does, she must first ensure her own existence.

As he meditated like this, his emotions tended to calm down, revealing a soft expression and a standard smile.

"You cook and eat by yourself on weekends. If I have something to do, I won't bother you."

Can't wait for Wen Lian to speak first, Sheng Qi voluntarily refuses, and removes the redundant tone, sounding aboveboard.

"I don't think it's troublesome, you go and get busy with your business. For two days, can't you spare time for a meal?" Wen Lian asked seriously as if she didn't understand that she was making excuses.

Sheng Qi fell silent.

Wen Lian stood up, walked in front of her, and looked up at her slightly: "I only have one meal, and I want you to taste my cooking skills. If you are busy, I will call you when you are done. You can leave, and the time will be controlled within four to 10 minutes."

She should know that it's not about a meal, let alone four or ten minutes or four hours.

In eight years, how many four and ten minutes have been lost, what to make up for.

The tranquility in Sheng Qi's eyes seemed to be ignited, and burned to ashes in an instant, leaving behind choking smoke.

No matter how hard it is for her to continue pretending, what is decent and polite, when the person standing in front of her is Wen Lian, when Wen Lian uses enough patience to approach her and seduce her, what can she do.

Indifferent to playing a gentle and personable old friend and new neighbor?

She can't.

"Don't you have a long memory?" This question gnashed his teeth.

Wen Lian was almost close to her, without any doubts on his face, but asked cooperatively: "What do I want to remember?"

Sheng Qi suddenly laughed and didn't answer.

It's useless to say more, adults have their own rules of the game, just play if you want to play.

She switched places with Wen Lian, pushed Wen Lian against the wall, kissed her on the bridge of the nose, cheek, and lips, and then deepened the kiss, stirring up a pool of ripples.

She lifted Wen Lian's chin so that she couldn't move, so she could only do this thing with her.

Wen Lian's hands were hanging by his sides, and when he was in palpitations, he grabbed the corners of his clothes, but did not put them on Sheng Qi's body.

After being satisfied, Sheng Qi stopped to observe his masterpiece, and Wen Lian's lips glistened.

"You don't need to take pictures tonight, you can see them now." Sheng Qi heard his own voice.

Strange as if from another person.

The buttons were unbuttoned again, and the bright colors had faded from the traces, leaving only the aftertaste.

Sheng Qi tapped it with his fingertips, and Wen Lian flinched.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

Sheng Qi's fingertips touched her collarbone again, she can be sure that the picture has not been photoshopped, she is so skinny.

"Is Saturday night okay?"

Wen Lian didn't care where Sheng Qi looked or how she touched her, she just wanted to achieve her purpose of coming.

Kissed, looked at, touched.

At this moment, Sheng Qi lost the confidence to refuse, opened his mouth to speak, then closed it again, with a "hmm".

Hearing the desired answer, Wen Lian laughed.After Sheng Qi had touched enough, he put on his clothes.

"I'm going back, you go to bed early."

Sheng Qi nodded, and the broken hair on his forehead spread out.

Wen Lian couldn't move her eyes, filled with joy, subconsciously raised her hand to help her.like before.

Sheng Qi's face changed suddenly, he took a step back suddenly, and covered his forehead defensively, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

Wen Lian slowly put down his hands, opened the door and went home without saying anything else.

Sheng Qi really hates being touched by her.

She didn't lie to Wen Lian completely, she did have something to do on Saturday, and she promised to go to her cousin Yu Tao's house for lunch at noon.

This time there were no elders present, so Sheng Qi emphasized in advance, "Eat as you eat, I even allow you to brag, but don't tell me about finding a partner."

"What about your sister-in-law?"

"Then I'll tell her that you often send me pictures of sexy beauties."

"I sent it once!"

"in spite of!"

I went to the supermarket before I went and was squatting down to look at the products. An aunt stood beside her, looking down at her.

The people next to him didn't move for a long time, Sheng Qi sensed something was wrong, raised his head, and was stunned.Standing up quickly, a little unbelievable: "Teacher Liao."

I actually met my high school English teacher here.

Seven or eight years have passed, and the teacher looks much older, and his hair is not tossed, and he cut it short.But with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, he was much more kind than he looked back then.

Apart from the age, it may also be that Sheng Qi has grown up and no longer fears her so much.

"I looked like it just now, but when I got closer, it turned out to be Sheng Qi. When did you return to Yujiang?"

"I won't be back until the end of June."

When Sheng Qi suddenly went through the procedure of transferring to another school, the head teacher couldn't persuade her. The other teachers knew that it was normal for her to study in a different city.

Mr. Liao is still teaching in No. [-] Middle School, and this year he happens to lead a key class and an ordinary class.Sheng Qi briefly talked about his current work and life, and got a few compliments that he didn't know the truth of.

After the greetings were over, and the polite words were about the same, Teacher Liao suddenly asked, "Do you still have contact with Wen Lian?"

Sheng Qi was startled, his temples exploded, and he said nervously, "Yes, I will contact you occasionally."

Miss Liao is her and Wen Lian's common English teacher.

She was noticed by teachers of various subjects because of her poor grades, while Wen Lian was just the opposite.Teacher Liao regarded her as his proud student, and he would always praise Wen Lian in the Shengqi class in class.

She also knew that Sheng Qi and Wen Lian were good friends.

From the second to the third semester of high school, Sheng Qi had frequent contact with Wen Lian, going to school and going home together, and the teachers bumped into each other several times.It's not just as simple as going along the way.

Sheng Qi's dictation of words and the words "Senior Grade 18 ([-]) Class Sheng Qi" on the English test paper are often Wen Lian's handwriting, which Teacher Liao can recognize at a glance.Sheng Qi's own handwriting is like a ghost drawing, but Wen Lian's handwriting is too recognizable.

She was worried that the paper was written by Wen Lian or lent to Sheng Qi to copy it, but after correcting it herself, she realized that she was too worried.

Moreover, Sheng Qi's grades have indeed improved rapidly, and his attitude towards learning has also improved a lot.

A few teachers in the office joked that it was the first time they saw students with top grades mixed with the bottom ones.

He also asked Mr. Liao to be careful not to let Sheng Qi affect Wen Lian.

Yujiang is a small city, and the level of students in No. [-] Middle School is different from other places. The school counts on a few top students to get good grades.

In the third year of high school, there was a sudden change in Sheng Qi's family. She transferred to another school, and the teachers no longer had to worry about it. Wen Lian did indeed satisfy everyone with her test scores.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, they are still in touch. It seems that they are really good friends.

Now that grades are not the most important thing, as a teacher, it is comforting to know that your students are connected.

Teacher Liao came with her daughter and son-in-law. After chatting for so long, they started to rush over there.Sheng Xike bid farewell politely, ending this encounter.

This was the first person from No. [-] that she met by chance after returning to Yujiang, besides Wen Lian.

No matter how many years have passed, students always have a love-hate relationship with their teachers, which is difficult to digest for a while.

She enthusiastically sent a message to Wen Lian: "Guess who I met just now?"

"Liao Dongxia!"

After sending it out, looking at the two lines of black text on a green background, she instantly woke up.

It was like falling into a glacier when he stumbled, his whole body felt bitingly cold, and he quickly withdrew, wanting to scold himself in annoyance.

After a while, Wen Lian asked: [Withdraw what? ]

[The message was sent to the wrong person. ] Fortunately, Wen Lian didn't see it.

[Oh. ]

Sheng Qi stayed at Yu Tao's house until the afternoon, and before leaving, his cousin stuffed her with two big bags of food, including peaches grown by her mother's family, and aunt's homemade braised meat.

Cheng Juan seems to be able to eat both of these, so Sheng Qi spared half of it and took a taxi to Cheng Juan's house.After having dinner at her house last time, the two of them haven't seen each other again. Sheng Qi wanted to invite her to dinner but didn't have a chance, so why don't he send something to see her.

This weekend, she should be at home.

If you're not at home, it doesn't matter if you leave things by the door.

He waited for a while after ringing the doorbell, and soon heard footsteps, just as Sheng Qi was about to smile, an unexpected face appeared in front of him.

Meiyan, indifferently, glanced at her coldly, and said in a bad tone: "What's the matter with you?"

No matter how this person's eyes look, no matter how he looks back at him, it makes people uncomfortable.

Sheng Qi looked up at the house number, he didn't go wrong, and kept smiling: "Is Liu Chengjuan there?"

Wen Xu raised her eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "What do you need to do with her?"

Sheng Qi endured the unhappiness in his heart, smiled warmly, and showed what he had in hand: "Well, come and bring her something to eat."

"Send food." Wen Xu snorted coldly and repeated playfully.

While speaking, when Sheng Qi was about to turn around and leave, Liu Chengjuan came out.Seeing Wen Xu blocking Sheng Qi at the door, his face darkened.

She pulled Wen Xu away, and said softly to Sheng Qi outside the door: "Come in and talk."

"No, I have to go if I give you something. I have something to do when I go back." Sheng Qi is not stupid, she won't go in even if she dies.

Wen Xu didn't look like a guest, he was wearing home clothes and holding a paring knife.

The timing of her appearance was wrong.

"Okay, I'll take you downstairs." Liu Chengjuan ignored Wen Xu's ugly expression, lowered his head to put on his shoes, and closed the door behind his back.

Sheng Qi was so embarrassed that he felt uncomfortable, "I'm sorry, I came to disturb you uninvited, and I will say hello to you before I come next time."

Saying so, she thought to herself, she would never come again next time.

It's better to find a place to meet if something happens, home is a place of privacy after all.Now it is different from before. They were all children before, but now they have their own lives.

What she said made Liu Chengjuan feel more guilty, and made her feel more uncomfortable than scolding her. She has done too badly during this time.

"Don't bother, it's just that she happened to be here today... I'll clean up and invite you over next time."

Sheng Qi was silent for a moment, and said to her, "She is Wen Lian's cousin."

"I know."

Sheng Qi asked again: "Your girlfriend?"

"No." Liu Chengjuan was still resolute, without any explanation.

Combined with the previous related conversations, although Sheng Qi was confused about her negative answer, he wisely stopped asking.

You have to give your friend space, even if she's really curious.

As soon as she got the taxi, Wen Lian sent her a message: [What time will I be back, can I cook? ]

Sheng Qi: [It's on the way, you can do it. ]

She read these two lines of dialogue over and over again, and a strange feeling arose in her heart. She couldn't wait to get home.It seems that she and Wen Lian have been like this for a long time, and they are the closest relationship.

hallucinations.

Although Wen Lian said to call her home to eat after finishing, Sheng Qi couldn't do anything rude and brought another portion of peaches and lo mei directly to Wen Lian's house.

Wen Lian is a replica of Han Ruohua today, wearing an apron, with her hair tied behind her head, bending over to get her a pair of slippers.

"Guess who I saw today?" Sheng Qi asked.

Wen Lian's expression was unnatural for a moment, "Who?"

"Your cousin."

"Oh." Nothing unusual, Yujiang is such a big place.

"Ask you something." Sheng Qi's eyes glistened with gossip, and he moved his face in front of Wen Lian, "Is your cousin single?"

Wen Lian replied truthfully: "She is not married yet, but she is not single, I don't know."

"Oh—" Sheng Qi wondered what the relationship was.

"Why do you ask about this?"

"Curious about her."

Wen Lian pursed her lower lip and reminded, "She's older than me."

Sheng Qi's face became serious, so it means that she is also many years older than Cheng Juan, and Cheng Juan does not admit that she is her girlfriend.

"Is your cousin rich?" She had to wonder.

Wen Lian looked at her quietly for two seconds, "Sit down, I'm going to cook."

"???" Stingy, do you want to keep this secret?

Sheng Qi didn't care about it, picked Xiao Qi up, sat on the sofa and played with it.

After a while, I opened the shopping software, "Sister, I'll buy you new clothes. Let's see which one you like."

She handed over the screen, and Xiaoqi stared blankly at her in a daze.

Forget it, let's ask Wen Lian the exact size first.

She went into the kitchen to look for Wen Lian. Wen Lian was chopping vegetables with no other distractions, just like the expression he had when he was writing questions.

The afterglow of the setting sun came in from the kitchen window. On such an ordinary evening, Sheng Qi's mood seemed to be bumped at the intersection.

There are only the two of them at home, and a puppy with a bad name, so empty and full of distracting thoughts.
