When Xiao Wanqing woke up the next day, it was mid-sun. She looked around and saw the bedroom she was familiar with. The clock on the bedside table had been artificially turned off.

Xiao Wanqing rubbed her head, still a little dizzy and unconscious after a hangover. She remembered that she had insomnia in the middle of the night last night, and wanted to drink some wine to help her sleep better, but then it seemed that her mood gradually became chaotic while drinking, and then...

Xiao Wanqing rubbed her forehead, but she couldn't remember clearly. I only vaguely remember, as if Lin Xian found out that she was smoking, she hugged Lin Xian, or did Lin Xian hug her? Xiao Wanqing bit her lip, there was a crack in her usual gentle and steady complexion...

Did she lose her composure after drinking, didn't she say anything strange, did she do something strange? or? Getting drunk? She... She remembers that her wine seems to be okay

When Lin Xian came in with the freshly squeezed orange juice and honey water, what he saw was Xiao Wanqing sitting on top of her fluffy and natural hair, with a troubled look on her face.

The sun shines through the window and falls on her body, casting a layer of warm light on her. Under the sun, Lin Xian seems to be able to see Xiao Wanqing's snow-white ears exposed to the air, the soft fluff that is almost invisible on weekdays Greeting her cutely.

Lin Xian burst out laughing with a "puchi" and walked to Xiao Wanqing's bed.

Xiao Wanqing looked at Lin Xian when she heard the sound, her expression was bewildered for a moment, and in the next moment, Lin Xian saw Hongxia slowly climbing up Xiao Wanqing's fair cheeks.

There was a soft smile in Lin Xian's eyes. She was actually a little nervous, Xiao Wanqing, do you still remember what happened last night

But she still calmed down, put the orange juice and honey water on Xiao Wanqing's bedside table calmly, greeted Xiao Wanqing and said, "Aunt Xiao, you are awake, good morning. Do you have a headache? I squeezed orange juice and put honey. You wash up You'll feel better after drinking a little."

Xiao Wanqing twisted her hands unconsciously under the quilt, stared at Lin Xian's usual smiling face, hesitated for a while, and asked her softly, "Xianxian, did you send me back to the room?"

Lin Xian glanced at Xiao Wanqing calmly, thinking about how much Xiao Wanqing still remembered. She nodded frankly, and answered her: "Well, I brought you back, Auntie Xiao. You are drunk, and it's so cold outside. I'm afraid you'll catch a cold if you stay too long." After finishing speaking, she added naturally He said: "Aunt Xiao, you are so thin and light, don't you usually have a good meal outside at noon?"

A broken shadow flashed in Xiao Wanqing's mind, but she couldn't remember the details. She lowered her neck slightly, and thanked Lin Xian with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Lin Xian, I lost my composure." Xiao Wanqing was extremely annoyed in her heart. impression. Next time, just take the medicine directly next time. It's okay to eat once or twice now and then.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xian grinned and showed a mouthful of small white teeth, and said brightly: "No trouble, Aunt Xiao, you look so cute when you're drunk."

Xiao Wanqing's blushing face suddenly became more and more charming. She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Xian hesitantly, and asked softly with a hint of worry: "Did I do something strange?"

She doesn't even remember... For a moment, Lin Xian didn't know whether he was relieved or a little bit more disappointed.

After a while, her cute big eyes like a little fox blinked slyly, and the little apple earrings that Xiao Wanqing put on for her last night shone in the morning light. She suddenly played tricks: "Aunt Xiao, go wash up first, remember to drink this, and I'll tell you after you have breakfast." After finishing speaking, she turned and walked out.

Xiao Wanqing stared at the back of Lin Xian leaving lightly, startled. She raised her head and patted her forehead. It seemed that drinking was a mistake and her reputation would be ruined.

Because she was eager to get an answer, Xiao Wanqing moved much faster than usual. After washing up quickly, she patted water on her face and applied lotion, then drank orange juice and honey water and went to the restaurant to find Lin Xian.

Before she got to the restaurant, she could smell the aroma, like the smell of baking bread. Sure enough, when she walked into the restaurant, she saw Lin Xian holding a porcelain white plate on which sandwiches with rich ingredients were neatly placed.

Seeing Xiao Wanqing, Lin Xian put the sandwich on the dining table where Xiao Wanqing used to sit, stuck out his tongue, and said embarrassedly: "Aunt Xiao, I seem to have burned the egg in the middle."

Xiao Wanqing looked at the steaming milk on the dining table, and the sandwiches with a tempting aroma, and felt soft and soft in her heart.

She sat down at the dining table, bent her eyebrows, and praised: "It's okay, it's delicious."

Lin Xian was making his own sandwich, when he heard the words and turned around, he couldn't help laughing, and said dissatisfiedly, "You haven't even eaten yet."

Xiao Wanqing carefully picked up the sandwich with her slender fingers, glanced at her tenderly and replied softly, "I know it in my heart."

For a moment, Lin Xian felt that the heat in his heart was heating up uncontrollably.

Xiao Wanqing took a bite of the sandwich gracefully, chewed it slowly, and after swallowing it completely, praised Lin Xian again seriously: "It's more delicious than I thought."

Lin Xian smiled lightly, with sweetness in his heart, and he couldn't help but tease Xiao Wanqing verbally: "Did I put too much honey in the juice I just brought you?"

Fortunately, Xiao Wanqing didn't notice the intimacy and innocence in Lin Xian's tone. When she heard the juice, she suddenly remembered what they hadn't said and the answer Lin Xian hadn't given her. She put down the sandwich and asked Lin Xian seriously: "Xianxian, did I say something strange yesterday, did I do something strange?"

Lin Xian took his own sandwich, walked to Xiao Wanqing's side, frowned, and muttered: "Yes."

Xiao Wanqing's heart tightened suddenly, and she stared at Lin Xian without blinking.

Lin Xian put down the sandwich and said softly, "Aunt Xiao, I saw you smoking yesterday."

Xiao Wanqing closed her fingers slightly, shyness and shame flashed alternately on her beautiful face, she lowered her eyes and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to have brought you a bad influence."

She...in fact, she rarely smokes, and even used to be a person who didn't like the smell of cigarettes very much. She was born in a scholarly family, her parents are well-behaved and self-disciplined, her father never smokes, and even alcohol is rarely contaminated. When she was young, whenever she met someone who smoked regardless of the occasion, she wanted to run away immediately, and she felt annoyed. She only felt that the smell of cigarettes was too bad, and then vented her anger. She felt that smokers had no self-control and were too disrespectful. own up.

We all know that smoking is bad for your health.

However, later on, she also became a member of this stupid army who had no self-control and didn't know how to cherish herself.

She borrowed the first cigarette from Wen Tong.

At that time, not long after she and Yan Jia broke up, she learned from Zhou Qin that her father was sick and hospitalized. She went to visit her in a state of dismay, but was mercilessly turned away. She was immersed in unwillingness, remorse, and helplessness. She suffered from insomnia all night and night, and could only fall asleep with a lot of sleeping pills. One night, she was extremely anxious and in a daze. She didn't know how many sleeping pills she took, and she fell asleep and became unconscious...

When she woke up again, she was in the hospital. Wen Tong was standing by the window of her ward, with her back turned to her, smoking an unlit cigarette on the edge of the window.

Later, Wen Tong was worried about her, as if she couldn't believe that she had taken too many sleeping pills by accident, and wanted Xiao Wanqing to live in her house for a while, but Xiao Wanqing couldn't hold her back, so she had to come and live there for a while.

One night, she suffered from insomnia again, but Wen Tong had already taken all her sleeping pills. She was bored and had no choice but to go out of the bedroom to get some hot water in the living room and find something to do. But I saw that Wen Tong was standing on the balcony, with a little orange spark flickering between his fingers.

She put down the water glass, walked to Wen Tong's side, frowned and asked Wen Tong in a low voice, "Can you lend me a cigarette?"

Wen Tong's sharp brows were full of gloom, watching her without moving.

She self-consciously took a cigarette from Wen Tong's cigarette case on the balcony, opened the lighter clumsily, lit the cigarette, the first puff, she was choked and burst into tears...

Through the lingering smoke, Wen Tong frowned, and asked her in a low voice: "Xiao Wanqing, when are you going to come out?" It was a melancholy look she had never seen before.

She remained silent without answering Wen Tong, took another puff of cigarette, and again, couldn't stop being choked...

The next day, she left Wen Tong's house.

As a friend, Wen Tong has done enough, and she thanked her.

For the rest of the journey, she should go alone.

She thought, if she is not happy, she alone is enough, she shouldn't drag Wen Tong together into this sad and gloomy quagmire that seems impossible to climb out of. In the past, when she was not troubled by these things, Wen Tong was such a free and easy person.

Later, alone at night, she slowly learned to smoke, and then slowly quit smoking.

Today, many years later, in fact, she only lights up cigarettes occasionally when she is bored and can't help herself.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xian ran into him.

Lin Xian didn't mean to blame her at all, besides, why did Xiao Wanqing feel sorry for her for smoking? She is too hard on herself. Lin Xian shook her head and said, "You didn't let me inhale second-hand smoke, so there's nothing bad about it." She squatted down, rested her chin on Xiao Wanqing's lap, blinked her big eyes and said coquettishly: "But Aunt Xiao, smoking is bad for your health, do you count your words?"

Xiao Wanqing stared blankly at the little head on her lap, feeling a little strange in her heart, but she couldn't tell why, she just nodded slightly and said, "Of course it counts."

Lin Xian's big eyes bent into a crescent shape, and he said briskly: "Then you promised me yesterday, you said, you won't smoke in the future."

Xiao Wanqing quickly overturned the broken memories in her mind, vaguely felt that there was such a thing, and it seemed that there was no such thing

Seeing that Xiao Wanqing didn't speak, Lin Xian obviously looked like he didn't remember at all, and immediately said reluctantly: "I don't care, Aunt Xiao, you can't play tricks, you promised me."

There was a slight curvature on Xiao Wanqing's lips, she touched Lin Xian's little head, and agreed softly: "I don't remember, but I promise you now."

Lin Xian immediately added: "Then you also promised me that you won't drink so much in the future."

Xiao Wanqing followed the good advice: "Okay, I promise you."

Lin Xian opened her mouth, and wanted to say, you promised me not to like her, but in the end, she thought of something else, and gradually lowered the corners of her lips, dimmed her eyes, and said, "Aunt Xiao, you asked me yesterday, You ask me, are we too close?" She raised her eyes, a little aggrieved: "Aunt Xiao, did I make you uncomfortable?"

For a moment, Xiao Wanqing felt suffocated, and a sense of danger and uneasiness permeated her whole body.

That's right, last night, she was restless and couldn't sleep, not only because she met Yan Jia, but also because she remembered the past. What's more, she felt that she and Lin Xian seemed a little strange. Unknowingly, Lin Xian, being close to her made her feel a little uneasy.

When she was young, she was thin-skinned, and because of her strict family education, she seldom acted like a baby to her elders; in addition, she had never been close to a child with such a big age gap before, so she didn't know that she and Lin Xian In the way of getting along, she occasionally feels soft-hearted towards Lin Xian's strangeness. After all, is it normal

However, when she looked at the docile and lovely girl lying on her lap like a puppy, and saw her big clear eyes full of loss and grievance, she couldn't bear to refuse her no matter what. She shook her head and comforted the girl softly: "No, Xianxian, don't take your drunken words seriously."

Lin Xian drooped her little head, and said in a depressed tone: "Aunt Xiao, don't look at my mother who looks very gentle, but she has always been very strict with me. When she gets angry and wants to scold me, my father can't stop her. Yes. So when I was young, I occasionally envied other classmates who had gentle and gentle mothers, as if they would never criticize her. The first time I saw you, Aunt Xiao, I liked you very much. You are just like what I imagined when I was young Like the most beautiful person in my life, gentle and gentle like water, for a moment I felt that you seemed to be my ideal reflected in reality, so I always want to get close to you unconsciously."

"Aunt Xiao, don't push me away, okay?" At the end, she even cried faintly.

What she said made Xiao Wanqing's heart tremble with grievance.

Xiao Wanqing blamed herself, the little girl had a clean mind, she just wanted to get closer to the elder she liked, where did she come from so many twists and turns. She held Lin Xian's small face with both hands, and comforted her softly: "Xianxian, it's just drunk talk, don't be afraid."

Lin Xian's big wet eyes suddenly sparkled, and asked for confirmation: "Really?"

Xiao Wanqing smiled, and scratched her nose: "Really. Don't be afraid, get up, go eat, it's cold."

Immediately, Lin Xian's eyes sparkled, and he jumped up to answer her: "Okay, I'll go eat."

Xiao Wanqing sighed deeply in her heart, thinking, maybe it was her who hadn't been close to anyone for a long time, and it was too long, she hadn't let down her guard and let others walk into her heart, so, there was a little trouble, It's like a bow and a snake.

She took a bite of her sandwich and convinced herself not to think too much about it.

The author has something to say: Aunt Xiao said: I really fell asleep without a plan, and I feel a little wronged when I think about it.
