The sound of water washing vegetables in the kitchen was loud. Although Sheng Yan had the memory of the original owner, she was still not used to small details. The water flow of the faucet in this kitchen was particularly large. The movement of flood discharge.

Sheng Yan couldn't control her strength at the beginning, and turned the faucet all the way, but instead of washing the vegetable leaves under it, the water splashed on Sheng Yan's clothes and trousers.

While looking at the tofu being stewed in the pot, she was washing the vegetables to be fried next, and she inevitably got caught several times.

Zhou Lan, who was standing against the wall outside the kitchen, looked at her for a while, and after she missed the third time, he hesitated and said:

"Let me do it."

Sheng Yan looked at her in surprise: "You know how to wash vegetables"

"Just use water to wash away all the dirt and sand on the vegetable leaves, one by one, right?" Zhou Lan's expression was still light, as if he was very experienced in what he said, but it was obvious that he stared at Sheng Yan for a long time before he got it. come to this conclusion.

Sheng Yan secretly laughed in her heart, if her mother heard this, she would probably cut herself and Zhou Lan off one by one - a waste of water resources!

She was anxious to look at the vegetables on the pot, and indeed she didn't have the patience to prepare the vegetable leaves here, not to mention that there were green onions waiting for her to chop on the sticky board.

Sheng Yan thought for a while, then looked at Zhou Lan: "Okay, you can turn the water down a bit, and wash slowly so that the water won't come out."

After thinking about it, she also went to the living room to move a high stool, which was bought by the original owner to be used as a computer chair, but after buying it at the school flea market, she found it was too high, so she usually only put it in the corner pile of books.

Zhou Lan didn't know what she was going to do. After listening to what she said, she went to the kitchen and slowly moved to the side of the sink, just about to turn on the faucet——

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from behind, grabbed her waist, picked her up easily, and then put her on the high stool.

Zhou Lan who changed from standing to sitting: "..."

She looked back at Sheng Yan in a daze, as if she wanted to know what she was going to do.

Sheng Yan touched her head with a smile, and said: "This way you won't get tired after standing for a long time, it's okay, wash slowly, don't get your sleeves and clothes wet, hey, do you want me to roll up your sleeves for you?" "

Zhou Lan: "..."

Hearing the other party's tone of coaxing the child, she rolled up her sleeves with a dark face and refused seriously: "No need."

When Sheng Yan heard her words, she almost burst out laughing, she shook her head lightly and turned around to communicate with the system secretly:

"What a child, so stubborn."

"Sometimes I think she is more than 16, and sometimes I think she doesn't look like an adult at all, so cute."

The system 222 hesitated to speak.

Sheng Yan: "Yeah"

The system thought about it, Zhou Lan is not considered a plot point, so it's okay to give a little hint: "She's not 16 in the first place, she just turned 14 this year."

Sheng Yan: "..."

She turned her head to look at the child, and looked at it secretly for a while, but she didn't expect that she was still deceived by the doll's age.

The person who washed the leaves one by one under the faucet was very serious. When he was doing things, his expression was calm and he didn't look like a child, which made people feel comfortable in his heart.

Sheng Yan turned around and lifted the lid of the pot, smelling the aroma of minced meat and tofu stewing, and hearing the bubbling sound of the soup at the bottom of the pot, she lowered her eyes and said slowly:

"never mind."

"This child is quite insecure, I just need to treat her better."

They really didn't cause trouble for her, and they still helped her as much as they could, and even paid her rent - when Sheng Yan went out before, the first ring on her phone was Zhou Lan's money transfer to her.

Sheng Yan guessed that this was the first thing she did when she was playing with her mobile phone.

The leaders have all been brought in, so there is no need to embarrass others right now.

……

"dinner's ready."

Sheng Yan brought the last plate of green vegetables to the table, looked at Zhou Lan, who was self-reliant and jumped off the stool with one foot, and did not comment on her secret stubbornness, but said something when serving her soup:

"By the way, what brand of milk do you like to drink?"

Zhou Lan: "..."

She doesn't like drinking milk.

Sheng Yan came over, put the soup bowl in front of her, leaned over and asked again.

Seeing that she couldn't hide, Zhou Lan pursed her lips and looked up at her: "Why are you asking this?"

Sheng Yan blinked her eyes: "You are still growing your body now, and it is better for you to drink more milk, which is high in protein. What brand do you like? I will go to the supermarket and buy it for you tomorrow. One cup in the morning and evening—"

She suddenly looked to the side again, and said to herself: "Hey, it's inconvenient to heat without a microwave, so I'll buy a small microwave and come back tomorrow."

"No need." Zhou Lan quickly interrupted her soliloquy.

Sheng Yan looked at her suspiciously: "Why?"

She thought for a while, and then added: "I won't charge you more, it just so happens that I also want to drink yogurt recently, so I can buy it together."

Zhou Lan pinched the chopsticks, was silent for a while and said, "It's really not necessary."

Sheng Yan saw that she disagreed, so she could only return to her seat in a strange way, took the public spoon on the plate, added a layer of tofu and juice to her rice bowl, took a bite with the chopsticks while carrying the bowl.

The salty sauce bloomed on her taste buds, and she suddenly had a flash of inspiration:

"System, it's not like she doesn't like milk, does it seem like all children are like this?"

The system 222 didn't see that she started to relish raising a baby before she was married.

Sheng Yan didn't get the answer, and she wasn't discouraged. After eating, she turned on the TV for Zhou Lan, and then went to clean up the dishes and wash.

"I, I'll come..." Zhou Lan looked at her uncomfortably.

Sheng Yan smiled, rolled her eyes, and rubbed her hair: "Then how about you watch TV for a while, just a few bowls."

She walked in the direction of the kitchen and saw that Zhou Lan hadn't changed the channel at all. She wanted to listen to the ad's old posture, so she decided to have a casual chat with her:

"By the way, what about your school work?"

"It's not winter and summer vacation recently, have you asked for leave? In school——"

Zhou Lan didn't pay attention to the advertisement at all, and turned her head to look at her as soon as she heard her talking. When she heard her mentioning her study, she said, "I'm not in good health recently, so I've asked for leave."

Sheng Yan asked her what grade she is now with an "oh".

Zhou Lan, who skipped grades, answered frankly, sophomore year.

Sheng Yan smiled: "Then you are amazing."

Zhou Lan froze for a moment.

She always felt that things about her hidden age were discovered.

But she didn't know where her horse's feet were, she only tried to say: "Where is the power?"

Sheng Yan snorted, didn't speak, and asked her again:

"Then your future tuition fees..."

Zhou Lan lowered her eyes and was quiet for a while before calmly replying: "My mother set up a study fund for me..."

Seeing her like that, Sheng Yan guessed that her mother's current situation was not very good, and she might have been a little surprised. She raised her brows and decided to change the topic:

"Is it convenient for you to take a shower now?"

"Do you need my help"

Hearing what she said, Zhou Lan immediately looked up at her with wide eyes.

help

What a help!

Sheng Yan met her gaze, and quite naturally motioned her to look down at her legs, and said with a smile: "Don't let the plaster on your legs get wet, it should be very inconvenient to take a bath by yourself."

Zhou Lan choked for breath.

Although she also knows that this is a fact, but does this person want to help herself take a bath? How can I do that?

Her shame told her that this was not a good job.

Sheng Yanjian noticed that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and deliberately teased her: "Why do we have the same gender, you are just a little kid in my eyes, and you are worried that I will take advantage of you?"

Zhou Lan: "..."

She moved her lips, but she didn't say a word, because she knew that he was refusing, but she also caught the joking meaning in the words.

Feeling that she was getting too excited, Sheng Yan finally calmed down a bit, passed the plate in her hand through the clear water, and said slowly:

"I mean, before you wash, help you put your legs on the stool, and you can consider wiping yourself, isn't that okay?"

Zhou Lan was taken aback by her.

Before he even had time to argue with her, he was afraid that she would repent and would force him to take a bath, so he hurriedly replied, "Okay!"

Sheng Yan tilted her head, laughing so much that she almost twitched in the kitchen.

……

After half an hour.

"I'm going out"

Helping Zhou Lan fix her injured foot, put water for her, and Sheng Yan, who was beside her with a towel and clothes, asked Zhou Lan step by step.

Zhou Lan lowered her head and said back to her: "Yes."

Sheng Yan grabbed the doorknob of the bathroom, and suddenly turned her head again: "Hey, it must be inconvenient for you to take off your pants, or I'll help you take off your pants—"

"No, use!" Zhou Lan's voice became louder, and she gritted her teeth and looked at her.

Sheng Yan said "Oh" with a very regretful tone: "Okay, but don't be brave, I don't want the tenant to fall down in the toilet on the first day he came in..."

"I'm right outside, call me if you have something to do, and call me when you're done."

Zhou Lan turned her head and answered her calmly: "En."

Then I saw the slightly nasty woman who was trying to tease her and turned the doorknob to go out, and the shadow was reflected on the frosted glass.

Seeing that figure, Zhou Lan looked at it with complicated eyes for a while, then stood up while supporting the toilet seat next to him, and began to take off his clothes with difficulty.

……

Sheng Yan waited outside for a long time before finally hearing the sound of the bathroom door reopening. Seeing Zhou Lan come out intact, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I feel that this child is really reassuring.

She quickly raised her eyebrows: "Okay, then I'll go wash, and the things in the room are ready, you go to bed early."

Zhou Lan, who has long been used to sleeping alone, froze immediately when she heard her words.

It wasn't until Sheng Yan quickly came out of the wash that she was still standing outside.

A bit of doubt appeared on Sheng Yan's face: "Why, I can't walk and the road is slipping, wait for me to carry you in."

As soon as Zhou Lan heard this, she immediately looked around for her crutches.

Sheng Yan smiled, watched her run into the house quickly, and then followed her, closing the door behind her.

Looking at the 1.5-meter-wide bed in front of her, Sheng Yan touched her chin: "I don't seem to be sleeping very well, so your injured leg should face outward, or you'll be over if you're crushed by me."

Zhou Lan hesitated and said, "How about I sleep in the living room—"

Before he could finish speaking, a light suddenly lit up outside the window with the curtains drawn, the brightness of lightning flashing silently across the night sky.

It seems to be able to predict the thunder that follows.

Sheng Yan raised her eyebrows, and leaned over, surrounded by the smell of the shower gel she had just washed, she only heard her softly asking: "Really?"

Zhou Lan: "..."

She put down her crutches expressionlessly, sat down on the edge of the bed, and refused to leave.

Sheng Yan couldn't help laughing, and said to her: "Good night, little one."

Zhou Lan held back for a while: "I'm not a child."

"Well, big boy, good night." Sheng Yan replied slowly, turned off the light, climbed onto the bed, pulled the quilt for herself, then went to help Zhou Lan pinch the corners of the quilt, and patted her on the head, Lie down naturally next to her.

In the middle of the night, Zhou Lan, who heard the thunder, unconsciously rubbed against Sheng Yan's side, not knowing whether it would be safer to turn her back to her or face her instead.

After all, it seems like a big taboo to give your back to someone you don't know well.

This is equivalent to exposing one's own empty door.

Zhou Lan's mind is full of those contents during training.

But the thunder outside the window threatened her all the time, as if the disgusting and terrifying memories that had been suppressed before were about to come up again.

While Zhou Lan was hesitating, a warm hand wrapped around her waist from behind under the quilt, and gently patted her arm that was pressed by her side. There was a bit of soothing in the gentle movement.

Zhou Lan froze at first, and then slowly relaxed under the soothing rhythm of slow motion.

She called out tentatively:

"Xu Bai"

It was the name on the student ID card of the man she had spotted.

The person behind didn't answer, as if he noticed the uneasiness of the people around him while he was asleep, so he made such a move, and he himself was completely in a deep sleep.

Zhou Lan opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, thinking that she would suffer from insomnia all night, but at this moment she felt sleepy for a while.

Gradually, she tried to push her back into the man's arms, and then closed her eyes.

Suddenly, he seemed to hear the reassuring heartbeat of this person.

Thump, thump.

She let go of her nervousness and extra precautions, and gradually sank into a dream.

It was very strange, she thought that in her dream there would be rainy night, lightning and thunder, or repeating the nightmares she had before, but it was not.

In the dream, it was a sunny day, and the warm sunlight shone on her body, making her squint her eyes comfortably, feeling extraordinarily relaxed and comfortable, and vaguely aware that she was going to an appointment.

The beautiful mood full of anticipation filled her entire dream.

The author has something to say: so sleepy qaq
