If The Moon Won’t Hold You

Chapter 3: First encounter

Views:

When the most precious things are taken away, even the little counselors will try their best to get them back.

Cen Ning stood where she was, not crying wantonly as the group of children thought, but when she looked at their backs, her eyes were indeed red.

She was so new here, she didn't even know where to find them after they left.

Go home and tell mom? But Wei Pinfang hated the camera so much, she would never want to get it back for her.

As for Grandpa Yan, she thought he would be willing to help her, but unfortunately, Grandpa went to another place yesterday and probably won't be back for a week.

Cen Ning's mind was in a mess, and in the end he cut and deleted, and only words and deeds remained.

Before the girl named Xue Xiaoxiao left, she said that if she didn't like her, she couldn't help her.

She also knows that words and deeds don't like her, because there are not many people in this world who like her.

However, the camera of the person who deeply liked her was taken away, so, no matter it was impossible, she was willing to give it a try.

On Friday evening, Yan Xingzhi came back from school.

The sky was getting dark, and after eating, Cen Ning saw his words and deeds going upstairs, she didn't dare to knock on his door, so she sat in the living room, pretending to be watching TV.

After more than an hour, he came down and changed his clothes. The original school uniform became simple and comfortable casual clothes.

"Grandpa, why are you back?" Cen Ning heard him ask Lao Gao.

"About three days."

"En." Without another word, he turned and went out the door.

The man of words and deeds has long legs and walks very fast. When Cen Ning followed her out, he was already quite a distance away from her.

The moon loomed behind the dark clouds, and the moonlight shone down through many obstacles, stretching his shadow very long. Cen Ning silently followed behind him, struggling repeatedly on the question "Should I call him?"

She was afraid of him, but she had to force herself to get close to him.

After walking for a while, Cen Ning saw him turn into an open space, and there were many sports equipment lined up in that open space. She saw him turn over a few times and put on dark green horizontal bars.

His back was facing her, so she didn't know what he was doing, so she just thought that he probably came out to relax after dinner.

So she summoned up her courage and walked towards him.

"That..." Cen Ning finally walked to his side, she raised her head, watching the words and deeds of the sitting on the high place.

And at this moment, she also saw what he was doing. He casually put one hand on his left knee, and held a cigarette between the index finger and middle finger of the other hand.

"..."

"..."

"Why are you here?" After the eerie silence, he spoke first.

Cen Ning was silent, and took a deep breath: "I have something to do, I need you to help me."

"Old Gao is at home, if you need something, you can tell him—" the voice paused, because he saw the eyes of the little girl standing on the ground visibly trembling, he frowned, and said, "If there is something that must be I come?"

Cen Ning nodded affirmatively: "You said, I have something I can't solve, yes, I can find you."

His words and deeds were still cold and indifferent, but he remembered that he had indeed said this sentence, so he jumped off the horizontal bar and casually leaned aside: "Tell me, what's the matter."

Cen Ning took a step back unconsciously. She glanced at the spark on his fingertips and said in a low voice, "My camera was, was, taken away by someone, and I want to get it back."

"Camera?" He asked in a puzzled manner, "Who took your camera?"

Cen Ning thought for a while, and said the girl's name: "Xue Xiaoxiao."

"Xiaoxiao? You are familiar with those little devils."

"No, no, I don't know her," Cen Ning was very nervous, and kept stumbling over his words, "They stole my camera away."

"The camera is important?"

Cen Ning nodded immediately: "The only thing my father left me."

His words and deeds were calm, and his expression was still indifferent, but he looked at her hopeful face, and his heart softened a little. He remembered that his grandfather had said that the girl's father had died, on the car going to Tibet.

"Why did she grab your camera?"

Cen Ning shook his head, but after thinking about it, he said, "She said, I should, move out."

It's not that the group of brats headed by Xue Xiaoxiao didn't know how noisy their words and deeds were, and he immediately understood after Cen Ning said this. They probably heard some rumors from somewhere, so they came to show their power in front of Cen Ning.

In words and deeds: "Understood, but... this kind of thing doesn't seem to be in the category that I should help you."

Cen Ning was taken aback, a little at a loss.

His words and deeds briefly hooked his lips: "Or you can talk about it and convince me, and I will help you."

The moon came out from behind the clouds, and the light fell on the ground in bits and pieces, and it also fell on his face. He looked at her calmly, and she mustered up the courage to look back.

One tall and one short, the two lines of sight meet in the air.

No one spoke for a long time, Cen Ning thought for a long time, and finally said, "They said, I am you, wife."

"..."

Clasping her hands tightly in front of her body, she looked at him with desperate hope and ignorant innocence, "Then you, can you support me?"

Faced with the obvious astonishment of his words and deeds, Cen Ning immediately said, "Can you support me if you don't like it? Just, just this time, okay?"

There was a few seconds of silence in the open space, and suddenly, the words and deeds laughed in a low voice.

At first, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but then he really laughed out loud.

Cen Ning stood in front of him nervously, listening to the laughter that seemed to come from his chest. For a moment, what appeared in her mind was, as if seeing him smile for the first time, the way he smiled... so pretty.

The words and deeds are really interesting. He has thought of countless ways she said, but he didn't expect her to bring this matter up so directly. He shook off the cigarette ash casually, and said with a slight expression: "Child, do you know what a wife is?"

Cen Ning: "I, no, kid."

His words and deeds raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand to compare her height, and said with a smile: "You are not a child, huh?"

Cen Ning frowned: "I will, grow up."

The words and deeds are happy again: "Oh, you will grow up."

"I, I really will, grow up!"

The corners of his lips were raised in words and deeds, amused by her stupid and cute appearance, he stretched out a hand and patted her on the top of the head: "Okay, you grow up well."

As he spoke, he missed her and walked in another direction.

Cen Ning turned around: "Hey, you..."

"I want a camera, come here at one o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"ah?"

"Don't understand?"

Cen Ning's eyes lit up: "Understood!"

I wanted to say thank you again, but the words and deeds faltered, and suddenly turned back: "By the way, this—" Yan and deeds raised the hand holding the cigarette, "Secret."

Cen Ning was stunned, then nodded quickly: "En!"

Cen Ning never thought that his words and deeds would really help her. The moment he nodded, she was overjoyed. At the same time, she also felt that words and deeds seemed less inaccessible. At least in keeping her "smoking" a secret, she felt that he was a little bit "ordinary".

After tossing and turning all night, I finally made it to the next day.

After eating, Cen Ning waited for the time, and saw that she rushed out of the small building just after 12:50.

The open space was not far away, and there were already many people there when Cen Ning arrived.

A group of small ones were sitting on the side playing, and they were playing basketball on the nearby basketball court.

After Cen Ning approached, the first person to see her was Xue Xiaoxiao. She was originally sitting on the sidelines watching her brothers play, but when she saw Cen Ning, she became very angry.

"Hey, why are you here? Why haven't you left yet? You didn't listen to me, did you?" Xue Xiaoxiao stood up and looked at Cen Ning dissatisfied.

Xue Xiaoxiao's voice was clear and prominent. As soon as she opened her mouth, all the players and non-players looked over.

Cen Ning was very uncomfortable with so many people watching the show or seeing doubts, but she had a clear purpose today, so she didn't back down.

She ignored Xue Xiaoxiao, but looked at her words and deeds.

The latter was withdrawing from the field. He walked to the rest area next to him, picked up the mineral water on the ground, took a few sips and sat down casually on the steps.

His forehead was slightly wet, and he suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, his expression slightly sharp.

"Did you listen to me, who sent you here, you—"

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing?" A bigger girl next to her pulled her.

Xue Xiaoxiao turned her head: "Sister Peiyan, she is Cen Ning."

Meng Peiyan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at his words and deeds. The latter didn't say a word, but just casually threw the water in his hand aside. There was a loud bang, although the sound was silent, but it made people's heart tighten inexplicably.

"Come here." Suddenly, words and deeds spoke.

There was no beginning or end to a sentence, and I didn't know who I was talking to for a while.

"What are you doing standing there?" He raised his eyes in words and deeds, and this time, he looked at Cen Ning accurately, "Come here."

pounding —

Tang Zheng stopped hitting the ball, and just let it bounce on the ground. His eyes shifted back and forth between the two of them, and after that, he let out an oh, and ran to the side to find a position, as if he were a spectator.

Cen Ning took a sneaky breath and walked over.

"The timing is quite accurate." Yan Zhizhi glanced at the seat next to him, "Sit down."

Cen Ning groaned and sat down obediently.

"Hey what's going on?"

"Who is this little girl?"

"Hiss, are you from the last century? The news is so unclear. Isn't this the... little guest from Yan's family?"

Little guest, what you said is really euphemistic.

Xue Xiaoxiao became angry for a while: "Brother Xingzhi, why-"

"Xiaoxiao, go back and get it."

Xue Xiaoxiao was taken aback: "What?"

The words and deeds pursed his lips slightly, his eyes made people cold: "Her camera, take it to her immediately and return it to her."

"Brother Xingzhi!" Xue Xiaoxiao pointed at her in disbelief, "Why are you helping her speak, I'm helping you!"

"Who wants you to help me?" Leaning back after speaking and doing, with his hands on the stone steps, his eyes slightly raised, "Your reason for bullying is quite fresh."

Xue Xiaoxiao's back was hairy from being stared at, and her voice was weak: "I didn't bully anyone."

"In that case, now, go back and get it back immediately."

"I… "

"Xiaoxiao." Interrupting her words and deeds, she said calmly, "It's okay to bully others, but if you bully me, do you know the consequences?"
