During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ji's family celebrates the same way as every other family.
Married from Russia to China, Ji Lin, who loves traditional Chinese culture, set up a table of Chinese food. After dinner, the whole family enjoyed the moon and shared the tradition of eating moon cakes.
Ji Xuanyi went back to the mansion in the afternoon to accompany his parents and elder brother to gossip.
At night, the whole family sits in the back garden, hangs a warm yellow night light, and borrows three minutes of light from the bright moon.
Ji Lin specially learned how to make super big moon cakes. At this time, she cut them into small pieces and asked the juniors to taste them quickly.
Ji Xuance and his wife An Zhiyao would please the elders, eating one piece after another, full of praise.
Ji Xuanyi doesn't like sweets, so he put down his fork after tasting a piece symbolically.
Ji Lin knew her youngest son's likes and dislikes, and pretended to blame: "You can't coax me, eat two extra yuan with me."
Ji Xuanyi joked: "If you have big brothers and sisters-in-law supporting you, I won't join in the fun."
Ji Lin squinted at him.
Ji Xuance helped his younger brother with good words: "Mom, Xiaoyi is not used to sweet food, so don't force him."
Sister-in-law An Zhiyao also said the same.
"You guys, protect him." Ji Lin smiled gracefully, and took advantage of this rare reunion day to talk about holding a grandson.
Naturally, she wants to remind Ji Xuance and An Zhiyao, who have been married for three years, and don't forget to mention Ji Xuanyi, who is approaching his thirties, who is still wandering outside, and has no serious partner.
Ji Xuanyi leaned his head on his elbows, listening lazily to Ji Lin's nonsense, like the east wind hitting a horse's ear.
"Your dad and I both think that Jiang Ying is very good. She looks pretty, has a high degree of education, and her family background is similar to ours." Ji Lin looked at her youngest son, concerned: "Do you have any contact in private? Ask someone Come out? Come and play."
Ji Xuanyi's memory is often deliberately adjusted to the key points. When he is studying, he will be given academic work, and after work, he will be given business affairs. For other trivial matters, he is too lazy to be distracted.
He looked back for a moment, and remembered that Jiang Ying that Ji Lin was talking about was the blind date they had chosen for him.
"No contact, no appointment." Ji Xuanyi said concisely.
Ji Lin was a little anxious: "Why didn't you contact me? How nice is Jiang Ying, you? You're a man, you should take the initiative, and you can't wait for other girls to come to you? Ah."
Ji Xuanyi had an incongruous smile on his lips: "Mom, it's enough to take the initiative to deal with business matters. It's too tiring to take the initiative in everything, especially for women, I'm lazy."
Ji Lin knew that her two sons were outstanding in all aspects, especially Ji Xuanyi, who was very lucky to inherit her blue eyes.
Even if he was randomly dragged to the street, the opposite sex would approach him and ask for his WeChat account.
Every girlfriend he had dated with was delivered to his door by himself? They seduced him in every possible way.
"Can Jiang Ying be on a par with them?" Ji Lin said, "Back then? It was you? Dad took the initiative to ask me out."
Ji Xuanyi heard her ramble, got up and said, "I'm going to smoke a cigarette."
Ji Lin was not used to the smell of cigarettes, and neither father nor son would smoke in front of her.
Ji Xuanyi walked along the garden path to a secluded place, and without lighting a cigarette, he took out the lighter and turned it on and off to pass the time.
I don't know if he was urged to go on a blind date, or if he looked up and saw the silvery moon, he thought of that girl on Beishan.
While flicking the lighter, Ji Xuanyi made a voice call to Su Jia.
He opened his mouth with a smile, but his expression became serious as he spoke.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Xuanyi put away the lighter and turned back, saying to his family: "Mom and Dad, brother and sister-in-law, I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
Neither Ji Dongyang nor Ji Lin asked: "What's the matter? You're in such a hurry."
Ji Xuanyi avoided answering: "Come back to see you some other day."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Ji Lin looked at the eldest son: "What are you, brother, doing this late at night?"
Ji Xuance didn't know much about Ji Xuanyi's whereabouts. He knew that he didn't like being interfered with in his private life, so he never planned to ask.
But because Ji Xuanyi had a small car accident a while ago, he didn't hide it from his parents, but he didn't hide it from him.
At this moment when his mother asked, he was vague: "I don't know."
"I really don't know or I don't know?" As the head of the family, Ji Dongyang doesn't talk much, but he can always ask the key points.
Ji Xuance is humble and stable, unlike Ji Xuanyi's willful and reckless behavior, unable to bear his father's coercion, he replied euphemistically: "Xiaoyi often goes to Beicheng University recently."
Ji Dongyang and Ji Lin understood the youngest son's flirtatious style, even though they knew that his good friend Zhou Yuan was a graduate student at Beicheng University, they didn't think about it.
"Is the other party a college student?" Ji Dongyang and Ji Xuanyi don't communicate much on weekdays, and they let Ji Xuance, the eldest brother, convey, "Tell him, it's okay to communicate, and pay attention to the size."
Ji Lin murmured: "Jiang Ying is the good choice, let them speed up the progress."
Ji Xuance took a sip of tea, and from the corner of his eye, he looked at the gentle and polite daughter-in-law, whom his parents personally picked, without saying a word.
On the other side, Ji Xuanyi drove to Beishan Training Base and opened that room.
It was pitch black inside, except for the moonlight leaking out from the curtains that were not closed tightly.
He vaguely saw a figure on the sofa.
In the overwhelming darkness, Ji Xuanyi held the door handle tightly, and hastily turned on the light.
The light that illuminates the room makes the girl curled up on the sofa continue to hide in the corner, folded her arms and buried her head, wishing she could curl up into a ball.
Ji Xuanyi was able to see clearly that it was Su Jia who was wearing crisp short-sleeved shorts and long hair scattered around.
He strode over, sat next to her and called, "Su Jia."
Su Jia raised her head and looked at him, her eye circles were red like rabbits.
Ji Xuanyi frowned slightly: "What's wrong? Someone bullied you??"
Su Jia shook her head a few times, resting her chin on her knees.
Ji Xuanyi thought about today's special solar terms, took a step closer, and asked in a low voice, "Do you miss home?"
The little girl has come all the way to Beicheng, and it is probably the first time she has left home. In such a happy family day, it is normal to be homesick.
Su Jia looked dull and didn't answer, but her eyes turned redder, and crystal tears welled up.
Ji Xuanyi picked up the tissue on the coffee table, wiped the corners of her eyes, and guessed: "Do you want to go back? I'll make arrangements to see you off tomorrow, or take your parents over and stay with you for a while."
Su Jia shook her head desperately, tears welling up in her eyes one after another.
Ji Xuanyi panicked, wiped her eyes? Tears were too busy for her.
Su Jia's body trembled slightly, and she murmured like chanting: "I won't go back, I won't pick you up..."
She is a grandmother who wants to die very much.
That? No matter how powerful his hands and eyes are, he won't be able to catch it.
Ji Xuanyi has seen her stunning, cunning, cowardly, and even falling into the quagmire of fear, but he has never seen her so sad.
He stretched out his arms in a strange way, hugged her trembling, and coaxed softly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The scorching body temperature of the stranger aroused Su Jia's panic under the iceberg to the greatest extent, and she instinctively raised her hands to struggle.
Ji Xuanyi hugged her even tighter, and comforted her along her soft long hair: "Be good, don't be afraid."
"I won't hurt you?"
There is no comparison between Su Jia's strength and Ji Xuanyi who used all his strength.
Unable to get rid of the situation, instead, in his comforting voices, and in the steady and steady sandalwood fragrance around his body, she became more stable for the first time.
Gradually, Su Jia obediently leaned on Ji Xuanyi, only sobbing.
The number of times she cried was very seldom, even if she was hit hard, she never shed tears so violently.
Because she understood at a very young age that tears are the catharsis of the powerless and helpless, and it has no effect.
With that time and effort, it is better to memorize two more pages of books, move towards a bigger place, and become an invincible existence.
But right now, Su Jia just wants to empty her brain, tear up her rational thinking, and indulge herself to miss, to be sentimental, to resent...
The sourness and pain that have been suppressed in the heart for a long time surged into rivers and seas, and the monstrous waves chased them, enough to make people drown.
Su Jia unconsciously grasped at the only straw.
Caught Ji Xuanyi.
Ji Xuanyi didn't understand why she was in such a low mood today, so he could only pat her on the back and coax her softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Su Jia closed her eyes? She changed from passive to active, and wrapped her arms around his waist.
She used a lot of strength, as if she was worried that if she didn't, she would be thrown away by him.
Ji Xuanyi was stunned for a moment, the hands that she broke free were hanging in the air, and he didn't know how to place them for a while.
The injury on Su Jia's right arm was not healed, and he was most afraid of accidentally touching it.
At the same time, Ji Xuanyi could really feel the strength of her arms wrapping around him, and he was worried that she would aggravate her injury because of this.
Ji Xuanyi slowly lowered his hands, hugged her gently, let her hold her and cried for a while, and said to discuss: "You? You have an injury on your arm. Let's change our position, shall we?"
Su Jia heard part of it, and the strength of his arm loosened by half.
Ji Xuanyi saw that she was strangely obedient when she came out today, and she couldn't be more comfortable with her fox fur, as if she would not resist no matter what she did.
Looking at her eyes that were still weeping, Ji Xuanyi suppressed his dirty thoughts.
However, when adjusting Su Jia's sitting posture, he put her on his lap, with his injured right arm on top, and held her horizontally like a baby.
Su Jia limply pressed against his chest, her face was tilted inward, and his short cotton sleeves were soaked with silent tears.
Ji Xuanyi leaned against the back of the sofa, feeling the warmth and the coldness of a small tear, his mood was infected by her, dull and messy.
Time passed quietly, and after crying for a long time, Su Jia was so tired that she fell asleep and fell asleep.
Ji Xuanyi hugged her who was sleeping soundly, freed up one hand, and gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks, then pulled the thin blanket stacked aside to cover her up.
On the one hand, he wondered what could make her so sad, and on the other hand, he found that she looked very good when she was asleep.
Su Jia exuded the fruity fragrance of shower gel, which was sweet and intoxicating, her thick eyelashes drooped like a small fan of crow feathers, and the flesh on her face was huddled together in front of Ji Xuanyi.
It looks like one of the few anime characters he knows - Crayon Shin-chan.
Ji Xuanyi couldn't help stretching out a finger, and poked her side face, fleshy and soft.
Su Jia, who was sleeping, seemed to have noticed it, and smacked her mouth twice in protest.
Ji Xuanyi thought she was about to wake up, so he withdrew his hand and patted the child gently as if trying to put the child to sleep.
The cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrated a few times, he took it out and set it to silent, then threw it aside.
The screen of the phone kept flickering, and new messages popped up. Ji Xuanyi could guess without looking at them.
He didn't answer, just stared at the girl in his arms, without blinking for a moment.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound from the window.
Ji Xuanyi turned his head and glanced, and two heads popped out from the bottom up, which were Zhou Yuan and Yao Linxia.
The two of them should have just come back from playing wildly outside, their hair was messed up by the wind.
Their eyes were wide open, looking at him and Su Jia in surprise.
Especially Yao Linxia, who seemed to be screaming, Zhou Yuan covered her mouth in time.
Ji Xuanyi glanced at the girl sleeping peacefully in his arms, raised his eyes again, and sent out a sharp warning look.
Zhou Yuan didn't have the guts to make a mistake, so he quickly grabbed Yao Lin and left him.
Not only did he have sharp eyesight, but he was also very kind. He went out a few steps, came back and pushed open the unlocked glass, pulled the curtains tightly, and finally closed the glass.
Ji Xuanyi frowned, Zhou Yuan's movements were careful enough, but Su Jia, who was sleeping honestly, began to move.
He lowered his head, and she had long curly eyelashes flickering.
Ji Xuanyi took a closer look, and suddenly met her opened eyes.
Su Jia had just woken up, and she kept a little bit of Zhou Gong's place in her mind. When she saw Ji Xuanyi's gorgeous face, which was close at hand, the security line was pulled to the top.
She turned over in fright, jumped all the way, checked her clothes for the first time, and didn't even bother to put on her shoes.
The thin blanket was scattered on the floor, and Ji Xuanyi sat still, his hands still in the position of hugging her.
He thought it was funny, if he really wanted to do something to her, she would have been unable to escape.
"You're so afraid of me doing something bad, how dare you lie in my arms?" Ji Xuanyi asked with a smile on his lips.
Su Jia made sure that she was fully dressed, reviewed the content before she fell asleep, and retorted: "It was you? You hugged me."
Ji Xuanyi lowered his hands: "Who is holding me so tight?"
Su Jia was dumbfounded. If her memory had not been tampered with by him, she had indeed hugged him on her own initiative.
"I, I..." Su Jia couldn't answer, so she changed the subject and said, "You? Sit down!"
The current Ji Xuanyi is really not sitting properly, his body is tilted and his legs are spread wide.
The inattentive laziness, it's strange... seduce her.
"I'm afraid it won't work," Ji Xuanyi said naturally, "My legs are numb and I can't move."
Su Jia choked. The reason why his legs were numb probably has something to do with her.
Ji Xuanyi told her what she had no face to say: "You? Sitting for too long."
Su Jia: "..."
"You? It won't be numb after a while." Su Jia said shyly.
Ji Xuanyi concluded: "No, it will never get better."
"Then? What should we do?" Su Jia reasonably suspected that he was making trouble for no reason.
Ji Xuanyi was very interested, and asked her the question: "You? What should I do?"
"Yes? No," Su Jia scratched her hair twice, "I'll give you a massage?"
How much did Ji Xuanyi's sloppy smile hold back
Su Jia regretted it after she finished speaking, what was she talking about!
That? But the legs, can they be pressed casually
Fortunately, Ji Xuanyi didn't seem to agree, so Su Jia secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I heard him yelling, "Come here."
Su Jia: "Huh?"
Ji Xuanyi smiled again, more flamboyant than before.
He glanced down and slid across his thigh: "Here you? Press."
