Sitting in the car, Cao Yang watched Xia Rou disappear through the gate with her travel bag. He lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and drove away.

Xia Rou was carrying her travel bag, and when she was about to walk downstairs to the dormitory, she saw Wei Qi sitting on a wooden chair under the crabapple flowers waiting for her.

The street lights on campus have been turned on.

A handsome young boy sat with his elbows on his lap and his hands clasped.

Xia Rou stopped and looked at him from a distance.

In her previous life, she stepped into another class that was too different when she was a girl, and she didn't have any guidance from female elders, so she missed a lot.

In this life, she had really thought that this would be the person she would spend her whole life with. She interacted with him seriously, and was really moved by him, felt the sweetness and happiness, tasted the greenness and beauty of first love, and filled up a piece of the missing.

But she didn't expect that the person she chose because of Cao Yang, in Cao Yang's heart, would wish...to kill him.

This is naturally because of the man's jealousy and possessiveness.

Xia Rou knows that Cao Yang is just expressing his emotion. He didn't really want to do anything to Wei Qi.

However, Cao Yang also made Xia Rou suddenly realize that this life...is different.

She ignored the rebirth, there is already a variable, and that variable is herself.

The people and things around her have changed because of her. Only she herself has not changed at all.

Still so stupid.

Over the past few years, she has indeed handled some things better. But that's because she's been through those things in advance, she's been through it, she knows where she went wrong, and she knows how to fix it.

Not because she really got better or smarter.

So in fact, she has not made any progress at all. When she encountered things that she hadn't seen through in her previous life and hadn't had time to face them, she was at a loss again.

Wei Qi looked up occasionally and saw Xia Rou.

He stood up abruptly, took a few steps over, and took her travel bag first. He took her hand and said, "Come back."

Ask again: "Have you eaten?"

Xia Rou nodded and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Eat." Wei Qi said.

He took her by the hand and led her away from the busy road, and stepped on the stone-paved corridor to the begonia tree.

The lights are dim, and the shadows of the trees are dancing.

Wei Qi hesitated, but still asked: "Friday night, what's going on?"

Xia Rou fell silent.

Wei Qi's heart sank.

"Is someone harassing you?" He frowned, "Tell me who it is, and I'll go find him!"

Xia Rou was silent for a long time, then shook her head: "No, he didn't harass me."

he

The man kissed her, but she didn't think she was molested...

Wei Qi's heart continued to sink.

Holding on, he said, "Do you want to pursue you?"

That's right, Xia Rou thought a little dazedly.

She nodded and said in a low voice, "He wants to be with me..."

"Then..." Wei Qi asked with difficulty, "Do you like him?"

Xia Rou was at a loss for a while, and finally said: "I don't know..."

When Wei Qi came to school to look for Xia Rou, he saw her reject other boys.

Calm, indifferent. Because I know that I don't like the other party, I refuse calmly and rationally. Not hypocritical, not artificial.

Now, he asked her if she liked that person, and she said... I don't know.

It's not "dislike", it's "don't know".

At this moment, Wei Qi knew that he had lost.

He held Xia Rou's hand and looked at this beautiful girl under the crabapple flowers in the shadow of the whirling tree, feeling powerless.

Aside from the dizziness and stupidity that are typical of people in love, under normal conditions, Wei Qi is actually a young man with a very smart mind, a high EQ, and much more mature than his peers.

He is positive and optimistic, and strives for what he wants.

But what he knows better is that the only thing about feelings can't be changed by hard work.

He is not afraid that many people will pursue Xia Rou.

He is not afraid that now that he does not have a house or a car, he will not be able to give Xia Rou a more refined life.

As long as he works hard, is diligent, and is better than other suitors. Car house, give him time, he will give it to her sooner or later.

The only thing he was afraid of was that Xia Rou...would like others.

Only liking this thing is completely idealistic and cannot be changed even with hard work.

They held hands and stood under the crabapple tree, silent together.

Xia Rou slowly raised her head, looking at Wei Qi's pretty face.

Although he is not comparable to Cao Yang, he is still an excellent young man. Compared with him, she is really mediocre.

Such an excellent person, what do you like about her

Cao Yang, what do you like about her

She and he looked at each other for a moment.

"Wei Qi..." She softly called his name.

Take a step forward and stand on tiptoe to kiss him.

People in love are already sensitive to subtle changes in emotions, not to mention Wei Qi is such a smart person. He could feel that she was trying to find something in this kiss.

He kissed her back, hoping that what she was looking for was his passion for her.

Unfortunately not.

Xia Rou obviously didn't find what she was looking for. When she left his lips, her eyes were blank.

After a long time, Xia Rou said softly: "I'm sorry..."

Wei Qi felt very tormented.

At his age, love and loss have a strong influence on life. Occupies most of the emotional world of young people.

He held her hand tightly, took a few deep breaths, and suppressed the bitterness and pain surging in his body.

"Don't make a decision on your own." He let go of her hand and stroked her forehead hair.

She must be confused too, he thought slightly.

During the days when he was in love with her, he already knew her very well. Because she was pursued by many boys, her classmates thought that she had rich emotional experience and must be good at getting along with the opposite sex.

But he knew that she was actually a girl well protected by her family. Her inner and emotional world is very pure.

Wei Qi kissed her forehead, and said in a low voice, "Don't make a decision in a hurry. Rou Rou, you should think it over carefully. We'll talk after you think it through."

He put his hands in his pockets, looked at her, and smiled: "Don't worry, think about it slowly... It doesn't matter how long..."

"I'm waiting for you."

Xia Rou later recalled his smile that night, and it already had a bit of the self-confidence that he had a few years later.

Xia Rou realized that she had witnessed Wei Qi's growth and maturity with her own eyes.

This confident and handsome young boy, and his smiling face, later became beautiful and slightly bitter memories in her life.

Lying quietly on the beach of memory, occasionally, flashes of light.

On Friday, she packed her bag and sat quietly in the dormitory waiting.

The phone didn't ring, but the walkie-talkie above the door rang: "Xia Rou from 427! Xia Rou from 427! Your brother is here to pick you up!"

Cao Yang usually drove to the gate of the school to call her to come out, but this time he came directly to the gate of the dormitory.

Xia Rou closed the book, picked up her bag and went out.

The tall man stood with his hands in his pockets outside the reception window of the dormitory management office, with a mature and tough masculinity that attracted all the young girls who came in and out to peek at him.

He was dressed in casual clothes, and was smiling at the accusations of the housekeeper's aunt, who was bewildered by his smile.

Turning around, I saw Xia Rou.

He went over to take her bag and said, "Let's go." He held her hand.

Before leaving, he smiled and said goodbye to the housekeeper aunt.

The aunt at the window smashed her mouth, turned her head and said enviously to the aunt in the room: "The relationship between the brothers and sisters is too good, and the sister is so old and still holds hands..."

Xia Rou was led by Cao Yang, looked at his shirt, and asked, "Where did you come from?" He usually came directly from the office to pick her up on Fridays, all in uniform.

"office."

"Why did you change your clothes?"

"Something happened."

Xia Rou didn't ask any more questions.

Cao Yang glanced at her with a smile.

On the way, I ran into roommates who were coming back from dinner, and everyone said hello.

"Hello, brother!"

"Brother is here to pick up Xia Rou?"

"Bye bye, brother!"

When Cao Yang and Xia Rou were far away, the girls got together and chatted.

"Oh my God, I look so handsome every time I look at it, I've been so handsome every time!"

"They're still holding hands! I'm so jealous! I'm so jealous! I want to be held by such a handsome brother!"

"It's like a couple!"

"Hey, how old is big brother?"

"Xiarou said that she is fourteen years older than us."

"Is it that much bigger?" Surprised. "I can't see it!"

Xia Rou opened the car door by herself, sat in the co-driver, closed the door, and just turned around to fasten her seat belt, when Cao Yang's breath came over her.

At first, he pecked and dawdled cautiously. Finding that Xia Rou's resistance was not so strong, she began to act presumptuously.

Xia Rou put her fist on his shoulder, unable to refuse, she could only close her eyes and let him do whatever he wanted.

It was not easy for him to let go of her. When she opened her eyes, she saw him smiling at her. Seeing her eyes open, he lowered his head and kissed her lips...

Of course Cao Yang would not tell Xia Rou that he brought casual clothes to the office to change because he wanted to hold her hand and kiss her lips.

The uniform is too conspicuous. The headquarters of the military region is stationed in the provincial capital, and a motorbike convoy of pickets can often be seen speeding past on the road. Although he will be fine, he is troublesome after all.

Although Xia Rou didn't take the initiative, it was much better than her resistance to him a week ago.

Well, this is a very good trend.

Cao Yang didn't ask how she and Wei Qi were doing. This is the girl he raised by his side, and he knows her very well. If she accepted him, she would not accept Wei Qi again.

Along the way, Cao Yang was in a good mood.

Xia Rou rested her elbows on the window frame and looked outside with her cheeks poked.

I saw the scenery on the road several times a week, and I couldn't be more familiar with it.

Xia Rou thinks back to Cao Yang's kiss just now...

She couldn't help but look back at him...

"What's wrong?" Cao Yang stopped at the red light intersection and held her hand.

Xia Rou shook her head and continued to look out the window.

The car entered the yard and parked in the shed.

After getting out of the car, Xia Rou called out: "Cao Yang..."

After knowing him for fourteen years, Xia Rou called him by his first name for the first time. The name that is so familiar is called Exit, but it is extremely strange.

Cao Yang looked at her with raised eyebrows.

Xia Rou walked over, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him.

There was a smile in Cao Yang's eyes, and he held her waist tightly. This time, not presumptuous, very gentle.

Xia Rou closed her eyes.

In fact, she didn't know what she was looking for. She was just at a loss, searching instinctively.

At the corner of the main building, Cao An, who had just strolled over from the atrium, stared dumbfounded...

Brother, kiss Xia Rou.
