'J:R'.
Dong Ci looked at it for a long time before she could see clearly what was embroidered on the scarf. She recalled the clothes Jing Rong had worn, and it seemed that every piece had these two letters on them.
"Like it?"
Jing Rong saw that Dong Ci had been staring at the embroidery. He stretched out his fingertips and tapped the tip of her nose and said with a smile. "As long as you follow me, you can also be labeled with this mark in the future."
“…”
Dong Ci didn't understand what he meant, and Jing Rong didn't explain much until Yan Ningshuang saw the logo of the scarf during class and gave Dong Ci a strange look.
"Jingrong gave it to you?"
Yan Ningshuang stretched out her fingertips and poked the scarf she was wearing, then sneered and muttered to herself. "That's right. You probably can't see this sign from anywhere other than Jingrong."
"Do you know what this is?" Dong Ci touched the logo on the scarf in confusion, "I saw this logo on almost every piece of Jing Rong's clothes. He also said today that he can wear this logo on me in the future. Sign, what does this mean?”
"He really said that?"
Yan Ningshuang was startled and looked at Dong Ci with a very ugly expression. She took a deep breath, shook her head and sighed. "Xiao Ci, I have a very bad feeling."
"What?"
"The Jing family's clothes are all customized by specialized designers. This logo only belongs to the Jing family. Anyone who knows some rules will know who he is from the Jing family after seeing this logo."
"Jing Rong said that you can also have this sign in the future. Does this mean that he... wants to marry you?" Even Yan Ningshuang herself was a little unsure about the last sentence.
She had heard her family say before that it was a great honor to bear the Jing family's badge, but it would also bring fatal danger. Yan Ningshuang didn't understand what Jing Rong wanted to do, but she knew clearly that Dong Ci would do more harm than good after being labeled with this mark.
Of course, she could only think about these words in her heart and could not tell Dong Ci everything.
"Are you kidding me?"
Dong Ci was frightened by Yan Ningshuang's words. "After graduation, we went our separate ways. I went to my good university, and he went to pursue his own sunny path. Maybe we will never see each other again in this life. How could it be so far away."
Far away
Dong Ci once felt that she was so far away from college, her dreams, her marriage, and her death. Until one day, when she found that she had it all in one moment, all those impossibilities became possible.
It was dark at that time and she had no one to rely on. Regardless of whether she wanted to or not, the only person who could accompany her was Jing Rong.
…
When the winter vacation was about to begin, it snowed heavily.
Dong Ci could still see the ground when she went out to school. When she walked out of the classroom after two classes, the outside was covered with snow.
"It's been so many years since I've seen such heavy snow." Dong Ci stretched out her hand to grab the snow on the railing, and heard Yan Ningshuang walking behind her and asking awkwardly. "Would you like to go to the playground for a walk?"
"OK."
It seems that after that rooftop meeting, the relationship between the two became much closer. Yan Ningshuang no longer walks alone, and Dong Ci is no longer alone.
The snow on the ground was thick, and the soles of the shoes rustled when they stepped on it. The two walked side by side and occasionally chatted. This harmonious and calm atmosphere made Dong Ci's heart warm.
Perhaps because of the snow, there were many students on the playground. Many people were running around, and snowballs were flying everywhere.
"How childish."
Yan Ningshuang pulled Dong Ci up to the top of the bleachers, looked at the students playing below, and snorted disdainfully.
Dong Ci didn't speak. He blinked and looked at a girl who was making snowballs. Perhaps she was infected by the atmosphere on the playground, and she was in a particularly good mood.
"Look at that elementary school girl, she's so cute." Dong Ci saw a girl wearing a bear coat and pulled Yan Ningshuang's sleeve to show her. "Where did she find all that snow?"
Yan Ningshuang squinted her eyes and saw that she seemed to know the girl. After looking at her for a while, she curled her lips contemptuously and said. "Her name is Su Tang, which is one, two hundred and five."
Just as she was talking, Su Tang, who was carrying a suit of snow, ran happily towards the snowman. Perhaps because she ran too fast, she didn't stop and bumped directly into the newly formed snowman. She was very angry. The girl kept pushing her.
When Su Tang climbed up from the snowman, the hat on her clothes covered her head, and her two little ears stood up cutely. There was a lot of snow on her body. Although she was embarrassed, she looked very cute.
"Do you know her?" Dong Ci was amused by the girl named Su Tang. She just turned her head to look at Yan Ningshuang. Then she turned around and saw Su Tang grabbing a handful of snow and throwing it at one of the girls' necks. Rise, the two went back and forth and ended up having a snowball fight.
"Would you like to go down and play?"
Dong Ci looked itchy and turned to ask Yan Ningshuang. Unexpectedly, Yan Ningshuang looked disgusted and shouted. "How old are you, and you still like to play in the snow."
Although he said this, Dong Ci still saw a hint of excitement in Yan Ningshuang's eyes. Knowing that she had an arrogant temper and could not be embarrassed, Dong Ci pretended to be pitiful and held her hand and said. "Master Shuangshuang, just go play with me, even if I am begging you."
"Ahem." Yan Ningshuang stood up following her. Although her chin was raised high, she couldn't help but smile. "Since you are begging me so much, then okay, I will reluctantly accompany you to play."
Yan Ningshuang said she was disgusted, but after actually going down, she was the craziest one.
She seemed to like playing in the snow. At first, she stood reservedly next to Dong Ci, but then she couldn't help but squat down. As soon as she picked up a handful of snow, before she could squeeze it into a ball, a big snowball was thrown at her. , Yan Ningshuang's face turned dark immediately.
"sorry Sorry."
Dong Ci saw a girl wearing a stuffed bear coat running not far away. She ran over in a panic to apologize. However, after seeing who the person who was hit was, she blinked and suddenly pounced on Yan Ning. Frost's body.
"It turns out to be Sister Shuangshuang." Dong Ci was frightened by her actions. Before he could react, he saw the girl named Su Tang nibbling Yan Ningshuang's cheek. Yan Ningshuang was so angry that she directly threw her He fell to the ground.
"How many times have I told you, don't kiss me, don't kiss me! Don't you have any brains?"
Dong Ci was shocked by the scene in front of her. Yan Ningshuang, who was still holding her own, suddenly went crazy and pressed the sugar on the ground and rolled it into a ball. The two of them were covered in snow. Dong Ci thought the two were fighting, but when she got closer, she realized they were joking.
Dong Ci no longer remembers how they played together after that. She only knows that Su Tang’s eyes lit up when he saw her, and he pulled her to play snowball fights together. They had a great time playing, and it was so hot in the winter. Sweated all over.
Su Tang took off his coat first and put it directly on the snowman. He also took out a few lollipops from his pocket and stuck them in the snowman's face, making everyone laugh all the time.
Dong Ci is weak and had already caught a cold a few days ago because he took off his clothes carelessly, so he didn't dare to take them off even if he was really hot.
While they were having fun, Dong Ci felt her clothes being pulled. She looked at Yan Ningshuang with some confusion, but Yan Ningshuang pulled her back two steps.
"Someone is here to take care of that little monster."
"What?" Dong Ci didn't understand. He followed Yan Ningshuang's gaze and saw a cold and handsome young man walking towards her.
"stand up."
Su Tang, who was still rolling on the ground, was startled when he heard such cold words. He tried to get up from the ground in a panic, but his feet slipped and he fell to the ground again, chewing a mouthful of snow.
Su Tang shook the snow off her head, smiled playfully at the boy who looked at her silently, and stretched out her hand. "I can't get up, so I need you to hold me~"
A bell rang in the distance, class was about to begin.
Dong Ci was afraid of being late for class, so she took Yan Ningshuang's hand and wanted to leave, but she didn't seem to be happy and actually wanted to stay and watch the show.
"Don't look at it. The next class is for the homeroom teacher. If you don't go back, you will be punished!" Dong Ci thought the little girl Su Tang was quite cute. She didn't know why Yan Ningshuang couldn't get along with her.
In the end, the two still failed to get back before class. The class teacher, who was always strict, punished them by standing at the door for ten minutes.
Dong Ci sneezed several times at the door. Finally, the head teacher was afraid that the two of them would catch a cold, so he asked them to come back.
Fortunately, they were brought back. Otherwise, Dong Ci really didn't know how sick he would be.
She has been in poor health since she was a child, and her loving mother usually wouldn't let her go out to play on snowy days. This was the first time in her life that she played so crazily, and one can imagine the consequences: she fell seriously ill.
Dong Ci had a high fever for two days in a row, but finally got better on the third day, so she hurried to school to catch up.
"Why is she so sick?" Jing Rong learned about her illness before she came on the first day. Now that I saw him, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. "Will you come to class before you recover?"
Dong Ci coughed a few times, her nose was unbearably blocked, and she kept wiping it with toilet paper.
"I heard from Yan Ningshuang that you went to the playground to have a snowball fight a few days ago?"
"Don't you know your own constitution? Are you that crazy if you don't care about you for a few days?"
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Jing Rong narrowed his eyes and poked her with a very bad tone. "Can't you hear what I'm talking to you?"
"answer me."
Seeing that Jingrong was getting angry, Dong Ci bit his lip. She also wanted to speak, but her voice was hoarse and she couldn't speak at all. She tried to open her mouth to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse and her throat was sore and itchy.
"Why is your throat so ruined?"
Jing Rong was stunned for a moment, and when she met Dong Ci's aggrieved eyes, most of the anger in her heart was gone.
He has been getting busier and busier lately, but just because he hasn't looked at her for a few days, she has tormented herself like this. A feeling of helplessness arose spontaneously, and Jing Rong felt that if she wanted to take care of this delicate little flower in the future, she must watch her closely.
Afraid of falling asleep after taking the medicine, Dong Ci said she would not take the medicine during class this time. Jing Rong was beside her and listened to her coughing. Seeing that her little face was red from suppressing it, he finally ran to the pharmacy to buy her medicine.
"eat."
Jing Rong got her a cup of hot water, but Dong Ci shook his head and refused to eat. He sneered, leaned on the chair and said lazily. "If you don't want to eat, I will feed you myself."
"I have medicine, and I will take it after class." Dong Ci struggled to say a word, covering his mouth and coughing again.
"Eat me, eat it now."
How could Jing Rong listen to her? He took off the pills and stuffed them into her mouth, unable to tolerate her rejection. Dong Ci became anxious and said intermittently. "If I sleep in class, the teacher will be angry."
"Don't worry, this medicine won't make you sleepy." Jing Rong opened his eyes and told lies.
It is true that not all cold medicines contain drugs that make people sleep, but in order for Dong Ci to recover faster, Jing Rong bought her the best medicine. And that medicine happened to contain chlorpheniramine acid.
Go to sleep if you want. Jing Rong recalled what he did when she was sleeping last year and couldn't help but curl her lips.
It doesn't matter, I won't let the teacher catch you this time.
Today is the last day of class this semester, and Jing Rong coaxed Dong Ci to sleep in class. Her long breathing could be heard in his ears. Whenever a teacher was coming, Jing Rong would squeeze her little hand. Dong Ci woke up in a daze, and fell asleep quickly after the teacher left.
Just because he slept in the class, Dong Ci failed to remember the key test points taught by the teacher, so he had to borrow Yan Ningshuang's notes to supplement his education. She simply has a good foundation now. She didn't panic during the exam and still achieved a good result.
Ci's mother's "Dong Song Family" was opened two years ago, and the business is much more prosperous than before. Dong Ci has been helping her in the store after the holidays, and she made a lot of money two years ago.
This should be the most stable and happiest year the two of them have lived since their loving father left. Dong Ci helped her mother cook a table of dishes, and after eating, the two sat around the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
When Dong Ci saw the call from Jing Rong, it was already ten minutes later. Dong Ci looked through the text message Jing Rong sent her, walked out the window and took a look downstairs, and actually saw a figure.
Why would he come during this Chinese New Year
Dong Ci took her coat, frightened her mother, and hurried downstairs. When she approached, Jing Rong was squatting on the ground teasing a stray cat.
"Why are you here?" Jing Rong has been very quiet during this holiday. He has not come to see her once. He did not expect to come downstairs to her house on this day of the New Year.
"Of course I miss you."
Jing Rong stood up from the ground, walked slowly over to hug Dong Ci, and asked in a low voice. "Is the house busy?"
"Just me and my mom."
"Well, that's great."
Jing Rong lay on her neck and smiled softly. For some reason, Dong Ci felt that he was a little lonely like this. "You still have people, but I only have myself."
Dong Ci was stunned and looked at him in surprise. "Where are your parents?"
"Abroad."
"Aren't they coming to accompany you?" Dong Ci frowned. She had heard about it from Yan Ningshuang and knew that his parents had been abroad for a long time and would not return to China, but she did not expect that they would not even come back for the New Year.
"I don't need them to accompany me, as long as you are here."
Jing Rong leaned over and looked at her, her beautiful eyes as dark as an abyss, hiding a little bit of tenderness. "Xiao Ci, you will accompany me from now on, okay?"
Dong Ci couldn't answer him because her lips were held by Jing Rong. His teeth gently rubbed her lips with gentle force. Dong Ci was so seduced by his rare tenderness that he even forgot to resist.
This was really a very gentle kiss, not predatory or intrusive, and the breath was filled with his cool breath.
It seems to be midnight, firecrackers are crackling, and fireworks seem to be shooting up in the sky. Dong Ci never thought that one day, she would kiss another boy on New Year's Eve.
"Like it?"
There was a chuckle in his ears, and when Dong Ci came back to her senses, she found Jing Rong looking at her teasingly. As if he had just realized something, Dong Ci blushed deeply, pushed him away and was about to run away.
"It turns out that Xiaoci likes gentle people."
Jing Rong hugged her from behind to prevent her from running away, rubbed the top of her head with his chin, and said lovingly. "As long as Xiaoci likes it, I can always be this gentle."
He can really be gentle all the time, be kind to her unconditionally, pamper her, and love her.
If, if the following things did not happen. Perhaps, Dong Ci will really get lost in his gentleness.
Perhaps just as Yan Ningshuang warned her at that time, no matter how much Jing Rong liked her, due to his personality, he would eventually hurt her to the point of losing all her skin.
