Chapter 88

Time flowed slowly. After returning to New York, Fu Jiang was not in a hurry to contact other people. On the contrary, she let herself merge into the sea like a drop of ordinary water, repeating the boring daily life in a flat and comfortable manner.

In the early mornings she goes for a walk, around the perimeter of the adjacent national park, while finishing her breakfast.She would borrow two books to read on the way home, although God knows how much Fu Jiang hates studying—well, so the books she chooses are novels with low literary quality.

She took a lunch break at noon and went to the library to return books in the evening. She had no friends, no lover, and the seemingly lonely and boring life of the elderly was actually enjoyed by Fu Jiang. She even considered raising a dog.

Of course, in the end, Fu Jiang gave up this idea. She knew that she was not a character who would take care of others, even if what she wanted to take care of was not a human but a dog.And luckily, the person she was waiting for found her before Tomie got bored with this life.

The only surprise... probably is that this person is not the person Fu Jiang imagined at the beginning.

As usual, Fu Jiang walked home after breakfast, and then saw the chestnut blond head squatting at the door with his head buried on his knee.This man looked tall and strong, even though he was curled up in a ball, he still blocked most of her door.

Fu Jiang walked in front of him slowly, she watched as she approached, the man in front of her silently clenched his hands, the back of his hand turned white due to the force, and even stretched a few blue veins, maybe it was nervous... ...Maybe it was sad, his shoulders were trembling slightly.

Fu Jiang hesitated for a moment, and she put her hand gently on the man's shoulder: "... hello," Fu Jiang blinked: "Do you need help?"

Then the hoarse voice, which contained countless pains, seemed to pass through the years to Fu Jiang's ears, with a familiar but also unfamiliar tenderness: "Fu Jiang."

He raised his head... The person who called his name was Steve.

The hero, who has been sleeping on the glacier for many years, looked up at Fu Jiang. His warm and generous hands held Fu Jiang's fingers on his shoulders firmly in the palm of his hand. His pair seemed to be washed by the spring rain, reminiscent of the blue sky. The eyes with the vast sea water look like they are shining with tears.

Of course, Steve wasn't crying.

This warrior, who has endured all the persecution this world has given him, is much stronger than he looks.But Fu Jiang could also see that Steve was trying to hide his expectations and worries in his seemingly calm call.

Are you worried about being rejected?

Fu Jiang tilted his head.Her turbulent thoughts finally calmed down when she met Steve's gaze, and then the beautiful young girl pursed her lips slightly, as if they hadn't seen each other for a few days: "Hi, you don't look much changed."

She pulled Steve up from the ground, and the man stood beside Fu Jiang awkwardly and helplessly, watching her open the door without surprise or joy, and then the girl turned her head and raised her eyebrows slightly at him: "You don't Are you going to come in?"

"No, I mean, uh, can I come in?"

Fu Jiang nodded: "Come in."

Then Fu Jiang saw Steve shuffling his feet and walking in behind her like a tail.He looked really majestic and at a loss. In the end, Fu Jiang couldn't help holding his forehead first: "You can sit on the sofa—"

"Yes!" The soldier straightened his body as if frightened, and his blue eyes widened. If Fu Jiang's helplessness was not too obvious, I'm afraid Steve would not be able to help but salute her.

He finally sat on the sofa obediently, with his hands on his knees, his back straight, his expression serious, and it was very obvious that he was sitting upright.When Fu Jiang handed the drink to Steve, the elderly Steve quickly took it... and then he couldn't find a way to open it.

Finally, under the demonstration of Fu Jiang, he opened the can awkwardly-well, Steve doesn't seem to be used to the taste of Coke.

Fu Jiang stared at Steve's silently wrinkled face, and couldn't help but smile.And Steve also noticed Fu Jiang's expression for the first time, his relaxed body tightened again: I really don't know what Steve is nervous about.

"When did you wake up?" In the end, Fu Jiang brought up the topic first, and she made her tone flat like an old friend, but this made Steve's expression a little gloomy.

Da Bing rubbed his fingertips against the body of the soda can: "About three weeks ago," he lowered his head, "...times have changed a lot." He had a lot to say, but in the end he could only utter these sigh-like words , which frustrates Steve, annoyed at his clumsy tongue that hasn't changed over the years.

Steve remembers running into the street, remembering how he felt lost in the bustling streets, tall buildings and countless absent neon lights and billboards.He obviously just closed his eyes, but the clock was moved forward by the hand of fate, and decades passed quietly in this instant.

Steve showed a wry smile: "I still owe you a Christmas."

As for this, Fu Jiang was just silent, and looked at him tolerantly, like looking at a child who didn't understand the situation.Then the girl smiled, and her young face was somewhat silent for her age: "66 years have passed." The slender eyelashes blinked and blinked:

"I'm past Christmas now."

Steve held his breath for a moment, the pain in his blue eyes at this moment was almost heartbreaking, and Fu Jiang couldn't help curling his fingers slightly under Steve's gaze.But it was only for a moment before she turned her head away.

Fu Jiang faked a smile: "So it seems that we are not too young, don't you ask me how I have lived these years?"

"...How have you been living these years?" Steve's voice was hoarse.

"I've been to a lot of places, and I've met a lot of people. I haven't even lived in the same place for more than two years." Fu Jiang smiled: "I'm a student in New York now, do I look young?" She twirled her skirt under Steve's gaze, smiling sweetly and movingly, with white and slender legs under the swaying skirt, it seemed that the room was filled with overflowing pheromones with the twisting of her waist.

Steve didn't look away unexpectedly, and there was a slight smile on his face: "Yes, you haven't changed at all." The warmth flowing in his eyes was like a bonfire burning in the dark: "You are still the same as before beautiful."

"You have changed." Fu Jiang raised his eyebrows seriously: "Steve, your mouth has become sweeter. You never said such touching things before."

Steve pursed his lips and smiled in embarrassment. He scratched his head, and he felt that Fu Jiang's indifference to him seemed to be melted a little.

Maybe it was impulsiveness or something else, but Steve finally stood up.When he stood up, his tall and strong figure was awe-inspiring, especially when Tomie looked like a young and petite girl.Then, Fu Jiang saw Steve kneeling on one knee.

The handsome soldier raised his head and stared at Fu Jiang, his eyes that were as pure as jewels locked her tightly.He stretched out his callused and old wounded hand, with the palm facing upwards, reaching out to Fu Jiang's eyes, as if waiting to be grasped.

Steve's voice was low: "I made a promise. I made a Christmas promise with you. I made a promise to pick a Christmas tree, kiss under the mistletoe, and I made a promise to accompany you to open presents."

"I made a promise. I said that when the war is over, we will settle in New York. I promise to take good care of you, shelter you from wind and rain, and overcome obstacles for you."

"I made a promise... I promised, I will definitely come back."

"I will come to you with a diamond ring, and I will kneel before you and beg for your forgiveness..." Tears flickered in Steve's eyes, his voice became hoarse and dull in patience, but those eyes Inside is overflowing, heartbreaking love.

With trembling hands, Steve took out a ring from his dusty jacket, the diamond halo shone brightly and eternally: "...I have made many promises, but none of them have been fulfilled. "

"But now I'm back... Are you willing to give Steve Rogers, this stupid guy a chance to love you again?" The eyes were sincere and firm:

"I promise you, this time I will fulfill my vow... I will spend my whole life with you, and I will never let you be alone again."

The young girl stared blankly at Da Bing. She didn't realize that the tears were rolling down her cheeks, and her eyes were full of bewilderment and helplessness. The wavering was so obvious. At Steve's request, he watched Fu Jiang slowly Stretched out his hand.

However, just before touching the skin, Fu Jiang curled his fingertips into fists:

"I reject."

This refusal is like regaining his sanity.Fu Jiang took a step back, she shook her head: "I refuse." Even her voice was brisk.Then he couldn't help but reached out and touched his cheek. When he watched the tears on his fingertips, Fu Jiang even showed a surprised look: "Ah? I cried? Why?"

This confusion does not even seem to be fake, because it is too sincere, but it seems a little weird.

Then Fu Jiang rudely wiped away the tears while Steve hesitated to speak, waved his hand casually and walked away: "I won't agree." She blinked: "There are too many people who like me, if you agree to your marriage proposal , there will be many people who will be sad."

Steve didn't speak, and the face of the elderly man was full of loss and confusion. He didn't even know whether he should believe that Fu Jiang really had a lot of people he liked, or just use this as an excuse for Fu Jiang to reject himself.

Then Steve saw Fu Jiang tilting his head and asking himself: "Don't you believe it?" She looked as if she suddenly felt unhappy, and her expression was filled with anxiety and impatience: "Don't you believe it? You don't believe it?"

"Don't you believe I have a lot of love?"

[This is very wrong...it's not like Fu Jiang. ] Steve pursed his lips tightly, and his brows were also slightly furrowed, which made his handsome face show a bit of military seriousness and contemplation.

Then?Then Steve saw Fu Jiang took out her mobile phone, she seemed to dial a certain number casually, but when the call was connected, the voice that came out was also a bit impatient and not obvious of helplessness.She was asking the person on the phone: "Tell me, do you like me? Do you love [Fu Jiang]? Do you value her?"

And what responded to her was the scream that seemed to come from a sudden reaction after a short silence—the scream that almost penetrated the microphone, surprised and lost its composure:

"Fu Jiang?! Are you okay?!!!"

Steve didn't realize his nails were digging into his palm: Who's the man on the phone?

The author has something to say:

I don't care, the appearance of my sweetheart with big breasts must be accompanied by BGM, he is a man with background music (see who of you still say I don't love him)!

And that's right, Fu Jiang is doing something, let's guess who is on the phone? (Bad winks.JPG)
