similar crush

"you……"

"Ah, it's almost twelve o'clock. Let's go back quickly."

Shu Yao caught a glimpse of the big pendulum clock hanging in the nearby shop, slapped her head to react, and let go of Lin Jianjia.Lin Jianjia looked at her hands in a sense of loss—she suddenly felt that this winter was really a bit cold.

Otherwise, why would she feel so cold after Shu Yao let go?

"By the way, Jian Jia, do you have an ideal type?"

"Ideal type?"

Lin Jianjia turned her head slightly, and met Shu Yao's smiling eyebrows—she put her hands in the pockets of the down jacket, her expression was half a smile, not a smile.

Lin Jianjia looked away and said, "Yes."

"Tell me?" Shu Yao raised her eyebrows, and licked her dry lips with her tongue.

Lin Jianjia took a deep breath, and her heart beat a little faster for no reason: "I like... tall people with good motor nerves, preferably with better grades in liberal arts."

As she spoke, she laughed lightly: "Probably, you are like this."

Shu Yao touched her face, feeling a little hot - she couldn't tell if it was a sudden heat up, or the hotness in her heart that had nowhere to rest.

She coughed dryly and said, "This is a bit difficult. After all, there are not many people as good as me in this world..."

Before Shu Yao finished speaking, the two of them had already reached the gate of the community, and her eyes stayed on one of them.

It was a young girl, wearing a loose lake blue knee-length sweater, showing her slender and fair calves, and her shoulder-length curly hair was dyed a beautiful rose red.She was sitting on top of the huge suitcase, shivering from the cold—but the shivering was the shivering, the girl still had a domineering aura about her.

The young and beautiful girl is like a red rose that blooms warmly in the dark night.

Lin Jianjia noticed Shu Yao's gaze, and asked hesitantly, "You... know each other?"

"know."

Shu Yao sighed, and strode towards the girl.She took off her down jacket and wrapped it around the girl, frowning: "Why are you here?"

The girl sniffed, her head barely awake from the cold.It seemed that the warmth of the human body still remained on the down jacket, half of her delicate face was buried in the fur collar, when she raised her head to look at Shu Yao, the hooked fox eyes were watery.

"sister--"

Shu Yao was unmoved by the soft voice that drew a long tone.She pulled up the hood of the down jacket and put it on the girl: "It's useless to call me sister, when did you come here?"

"The plane at 06:30, my parents don't even know I'm coming to Haicheng."

Guo Eryang pulled his arm out of the down jacket, tightened the brim of the hat, and looked past Shu Yao to Lin Jianjia.Lin Jianjia was wearing a heavy winter coat, and her long, naturally curly hair was neatly tied up.

Guo Eryang narrowed his eyes, as if in a demonstration, he clenched Shu Yao's sleeves: "Sister, who is she?"

The girl's hostility was undisguised, Lin Jianjia raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked sideways at Shu Yao, with a smile that was not a smile.

Shu Yao slapped Guo Eryang on the back of the head: "How did you talk? It's not big or small! It's Miss Jianjia!"

After the training, she turned her head and showed a bright smile to Lin Jianjia: "My sister, Guo Eryang. This child has owed her since she was a child, so don't take it to heart."

Guo Eryang was whipped, and the boss stood up unwillingly, pouting.As soon as she stood up, Lin Jianjia realized that the other party was actually quite tall, more than 1.7 meters by visual estimation.

She stood a little further away without any trace, "Your sister? I remember you are the only child?"

"A child from a relative's family." Shu Yao rubbed the tip of her nose, suddenly felt guilty in her heart, and subconsciously explained: "My family has many relatives, and Eryang is my second aunt's daughter."

Lin Jianjia nodded expressionlessly: "Oh."

She thought of the magnolia flower that Shu Yao made for herself before - Shu Yao also said at that time that it was made to coax relatives' children.A child from a relative's house... Isn't it Guo Eryang?

After all, he came all the way from the imperial capital, and Lin Jianjia couldn't keep him out, so in the end he could only lead Guo Eryang home with a sullen face.

Because Professor Lin and his wife had already fallen asleep, the three of them washed up lightly and went to rest quickly.

Shu Yao took Guo Eryang to the guest room where she slept, "That's it, you sleep for the night first. I'll ask Zhang Yue to book you a ticket for tomorrow morning, and you'll go back after breakfast tomorrow."

Guo Eryang threw his suitcase to the corner and lay down in the soft bedding.She raised her legs, her white and small toes hooked in the air, lazy and charming.

"No, I won't go back."

"Not going back? You won't have class tomorrow?"

Shu Yao rubbed the center of her brows, feeling a terrible headache.Guo Eryang took advantage of her helpless expression, and complained: "I don't want to go back, I will be angry when I see that man when I go back - what the hell is he? He dares to call me sister. And that old hag, seeing her With that face, I'm going to spit out my dinner overnight."

Guo Eryang's mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to her, and her father married a second son after that.Probably because he was afraid that marrying a too powerful wife would wrong his precious daughter, so Father Guo remarried an honest and beautiful young widow.

Originally, Guo Eryang didn't care about this. She always had her eyes above her head, and her attitude towards her stepmother was always neither cold nor cold.

What people never expected was that three years after this young widow got married, the old tree blossomed again and gave Guo Eryang a younger brother.

Shu Yao sighed, walked to the side of the bed and stuffed her into the quilt: "It's still the same when you talk. How many times have I said that even if you don't like her, at least on the surface you should call her left." Auntie, it's a good thing that your brother is willing to get close to you, so you treat him like a neighbor's kid?"

"Dog fart!"

Guo Eryang rolled his eyes: "I can't do it, I get angry when I see their mother and child! That old hag was like a quail before she gave birth to a son, but now—hmph, didn't you see her smug face? After 80 years of drought and being watered..."

"You can accumulate some morals."

Shu Yao swiftly stuffed a piece of candy into Guo Eryang's mouth. Guo Eryang wrinkled his nose and bit the hard candy until it creaked.Shu Yao helped her pull up the quilt, and said, "Go to bed early, I will ask Zhang Yue to take you back tomorrow."

She turned off the wall lamp, and the room immediately went dark.

Guo Eryang poked her head out from under the blanket, her eyes were extraordinarily bright in the dark night: "Sister, if my uncle and aunt really divorced, who would you follow?"

Shu Yao just opened the door of the guest room, when she heard this sentence, she paused, "I won't follow anyone."

As soon as the voice fell, the door was also closed.

Guo Eryang blinked in the dark with a complicated expression.

After Shu Yao closed the door, she found a spare quilt and spread it on the sofa.After being tossed by Guo Eryang, it is almost one o'clock in the morning.

Shu Yao was lying on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.She leaned on her arm, and opened her eyes in vain in the darkness - the lines on the ceiling had become very familiar, so familiar that Shu Yao could draw it on paper effortlessly even with her eyes closed.

This is Lin Jianjia's home.There is a strict father, a loving mother, and Lin Jianjia who seems plain and inhuman, but is actually gentle and considerate.

This is Haicheng, near the sea, and there is no heating in winter.

This place is very different from the environment where Shu Yao grew up.But Shu Yao likes it here - she has a very good impression of Haicheng, although everyone else thinks that Haicheng should be her psychological shadow.But in fact, Shu Yao really liked this city soaked in the sea breeze.

Guo Eryang wouldn't ask her this question for no reason, probably because her parents who are far away in the imperial capital can't live anymore and plan to break it off, right?

Shu Yao was so annoyed that she couldn't sleep.She lifted the quilt and got up, feeling a little hot.Subconsciously touched the pocket of her pajamas, it was empty - it was only then that Shu Yao remembered that she had never touched a cigarette since she came to Haicheng.

Lin Jianjia is very sensitive to the smell of cigarettes, and Professor Lin never smokes at home.Not long after Shu Yao moved in, she found out about this matter, and even quit smoking.

She rummaged through her schoolbag for a long time, and finally found a crumpled package of Yellow Crane Tower.Not knowing when it was stuffed in by someone, Shu Yao checked the date, and it hasn't expired yet.

Finding the lighter she hadn't used for a long time from the interlayer of her schoolbag, Shu Yao walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette for herself.

The smoke quickly rose, and in the dark blue night, it filled the air with lukewarmness.

Holding the cigarette between her slender index and middle fingers, Shu Yao squinted her eyes and leaned against the balcony wall.

There are many spider plants planted on the balcony, which have not bloomed this season, but the green leaves are still lush, and there is no sign of winter at all.

The smoke rolled over the blue veins, as if it had an entity.

Shu Yao raised her head slightly, and exhaled a smoke ring - the night sky in Haicheng is beautiful, and the stars are very bright.She thought of the night in the imperial capital, that ancient and majestic city, soaked in gray-white smog most of the time.

No, to be precise, not just that city.

It's Shu Yao's home.

Always soaked in an endless haze.

The smoke burned out quickly, and the cigarette butt glowed faintly in the dark, almost reaching Shu Yao's fingertips.She snuffed out the cigarette first, and turned around to throw the cigarette butt into the trash can, but she saw Lin Jianjia standing at the balcony door.

Shu Yao was stunned, and subconsciously apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm addicted to cigarettes, and I can't restrain myself...you go in first, and come back after the smell of cigarettes on the balcony dissipates."

"Are you in a bad mood today?"

Lin Jianjia looked up at Shu Yao.

Shu Yao was looked at in a daze: Lin Jianjia's eyes... were so bright, like the stars she just looked up and saw.

She touched the tip of her nose, avoiding the other's bright eyes: "A little bit."

"Because of Guo Eryang?"

"... none of her business."

"Is that because of me? Because of what I said before, did it bother you?"

Lin Jianjia took a step forward. She usually hates the smell of cigarettes the most, but at this moment she seemed to ignore the second-hand smoke that filled the balcony.

Shu Yao was stunned for a moment.She didn't even realize right away what Lin Jianjia was referring to—while she was in a daze for a moment, Lin Jianjia took another step forward.

The two of them are very close now, Lin Jianjia is almost pressed against Shu Yao's chest.

She heard Shu Yao's heartbeat, which was rapid and not as steady as usual.

Lin Jianjia took a deep breath, filled with the cedar smell of Shu Yao's body, mixed with a smell of smoke, which was not pleasant.But Lin Jianjia was not disgusted.

She raised her head and looked directly at Shu Yao's round and blank eyes: "Shu Yao, I like you, not as a friend."
