"Jiang Lu, are you sleepy?"
Finally, Qi An'an took the lead to break the silence. She didn't know if Jiang Lu was sleepy or not, but he was not asleep. Anyway, I had enough sleep during the day, and now I am not sleepy at all.
Of course, Jiang Lu didn't feel sleepy at all. Although he hardly slept before, he slept for seven or eight hours during the day today. After all, he is young and has a good foundation. In just a few hours, he made up for the deficit of the two days. , Now he is mentally sharp to the five senses.
Usually when Qi Anan leaned against him, he could feel the warmth and softness of her body, and he had no other thoughts in his heart other than peace and pity. But today it might be because he was too energetic, every breath of Qi An'an made him feel a little uneasy.
Jiang Lu said ambiguously, "It's okay."
Qi Anan asked: "Fortunately, is it a little more sleepy, or is it not a little sleepy?"
Jiang Lu couldn't help but chuckled, thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's... a little sleepy."
"Liar," Qi Anan said in disbelief, "Look at you, you speak so clearly, just like me, you don't look sleepy at all."
Qi Anan rubbed against Jiang Lu's arms again, his voice sounded sweeter and softer in the dark night: "Jiang Lu, we both slept too much during the day, and now we can't sleep at all, or do something else."
The conscience of heaven and earth, before Qi Anan said this, she just thought that the two of them could get up and watch a movie, or chase a variety show or something, but after she finished saying this, she obviously felt that Jiang Lu was suffocating.
Even she herself felt that what she said was very ambiguous.
Qi Anan explained dryly: "I... I mean... I..."
Jiang Lu smiled, and he rubbed Qi Anan's somewhat disheveled hair: "It's okay, I know what you mean. How about we watch a movie?"
Qi An'an felt that something was wrong again, and when she explained it like this, Jiang Lu became considerate again, as if it was her...she didn't want to.
Little by little, she got closer to Jiang Lu, curled up against his chest, feeling the heat of his embrace: "Jiang Lu, I am yours, you can do anything to me... I know you love me, I am willing..."
Jiang Lu's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he couldn't laugh or cry in his heart. What she said was so serious and straightforward, do you know what kind of provocation this is
In the darkness, he tensed his body slightly, feeling ashamed and helpless in his heart—his eyes have indeed seen a lot of filth, and he has never been able to see the reality of love between a man and a woman as a husband and wife.
Even when facing the girl he loves, he has uncontrollable masculine instincts, but he never dares to defile her with his body.
"An'an, I..."
Qi Anan suddenly reached out to cover Jiang Lu Weikai's lips. In the dark night, her eyes were as bright as stars.
"Jiang Lu, I know there is a hurdle in your heart that you can't get past," she whispered, her voice was gentle but firm, "but I want to tell you, you are not dirty at all."
Jiang Lu's clenched fist suddenly loosened.
His eyes were slightly wet, and he pursed his lips tightly to swallow the sourness back.
Qi An'an's voice continued: "You are the best, I love you, and you are worthy of my love. I won't allow anyone to dislike you, and neither can you."
She loves him, not only for his aloofness and gentleness, but also for his sensitivity and inferiority complex.
Jiang Lu laughed silently.
After a while, he kissed Qi An'an's soft and thick long hair scattered beside the pillow: "I know."
He knows that she loves him. When all the truth was in front of his eyes, and recalling the moment she appeared in the hospital today, he knew how much she loved him.
Jiang Lu laughed softly, his chest trembling slightly: "An'an, your eyesight is a bit poor, but I dare not let you down. You don't dislike me, and I won't..."
He kept the unfinished words in his mouth. She had seen his whole life, but she still chose to love him without hesitation. She regards him as a treasure, and he will never despise himself again.
Jiang Lu held his breath slightly, and the big hand that was originally on her waist finally moved up slowly.
Qi Anan closed his eyes, relaxed his body, and accepted the man's sympathetic kiss.
In the silence of the night, the sound of the heartbeat became clearer and mixed together, Qi Anan bit his lip lightly, staring blankly at the handsome silhouette in front of him, and clasped his hands on his neck.
Jiang Lu kissed her fair wrist and leaned over again.
A peaceful moon outside the window.
Qi An'an's thoughts were fuzzy, and when he was about to fall asleep, he vaguely heard someone whispering in his ear: "I love you."
The man kissed away her confused tears, and repeated softly devoutly: "An'an, I love you."
…
The winter this year is not too cold, and there has never been a single snowfall.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, there is nothing to do during the day, Qi Anan called Ji Ruomeng to share her little secret.
Ji Ruomeng didn't want to say anything anymore, Qi An'an and Jiang Lu made her live a worrying life like an old mother in advance: "You worthless, you have been eaten and wiped away, look at your sweetness." of."
At the end, she calmly reminded: "Remember to prepare for pregnancy, you two idiots."
"He, he didn't..." Forget it, Qi An'an didn't quite understand, and he was too embarrassed to elaborate, so he changed the subject and said, "Mengmeng, how are you seeing your parents?"
"Ham, it went so unbelievably well, it's meaningless to go well, Yu Tianyang's parents are very nice, they gave me a big red envelope, and even kicked Yu Tianyang to make him treat me well."
Ji Ruomeng's tone sounded very happy, "My family also likes Yu Tianyang very much. You also know that dog, who has a mouth that can speak and speak, and is especially liked by the elders. My dad even praised Yu Tianyang Young and promising, he almost didn't fly to the sky."
Qi Anan was also very happy to hear that: "That's good, I knew it would go well. You are a graduate student from University A, and Yu Tianyang is also doing a good job. The two of you must be satisfied with each other."
Ji Ruomeng laughed a few times, she knew the situation of Qi An'an and Jiang Lu, so she didn't say much on this topic: "By the way, Brother Yang and I went to visit the teacher the day before yesterday, and Teacher Jin asked about the relationship between you and Jiang Lu this year. Why didn't Jiang Lu go back, I missed you."
Qi Anan did not expect Teacher Jin to specifically mention them: "I originally wanted to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, so Jiang Lu and I will call him in the evening."
Ji Ruomeng said: "Okay, he must be happy to receive your call, you two remember to call Teacher Yang as well, or you should be jealous again."
"Okay, I know." Qi An'an and Ji Ruomeng chatted for a while, after thinking about it, they picked out what they could say about meeting Qi Zhen.
She didn't say anything too complicated, but said that when she went out to exchange and study a few days ago, Qi Zhen used some tricks to make Jiang Lu think that something happened to her, and she has been ill for the past two days.
After all, the fact that Jiang Lu was almost depressed made Qi An'an feel extremely distressed, so he could only talk to his best friend a little bit.
Ji Ruomeng exploded as soon as she heard it: "This bitch! She didn't have anything good to say when we met last time, and she actually used such a dirty trick. Is she out of her mind? Jiang Lu also cares about you too much, even her fault. I can go. An An is fine, don't worry too much, you just need to be healthy now, Jiang Lu's physical fitness is so good, no matter how severe a cold or fever is, he will be fine in a few days."
She thought that being ill was nothing more than a cold and fever, Qi Anan didn't explain much, just nodded seriously: "Well, it will be fine."
"What about that big mouth? Just let her forget it? Damn, if I have a chance to see her, I'll tear her mouth off! Who is it? She really has that serious illness."
Qi An'an also hated Qi Zhen's despicableness, but she had already slapped her, and the two of them had already talked about it, Jiang Lu would no longer worry about those things, and Qi Zhen would never make any more waves.
She shook her head: "It's okay, I won't see you in the future, Jiang Lu said that Qi Zhen will not come to City A, even if he does, he will never appear in front of us."
Ji Ruomeng was a little puzzled: "Why is he so sure?"
"That's what he told me. There must be nothing wrong." Qi An'an smiled. When Jiang Lu mentioned this matter to her, although there was no expression on his face, his tone was firm.
They have a tacit understanding, Qi Zhen is just an insignificant person in their lives, there is no need to worry about her. They just had to move forward, no matter whether she was in pain or remorse, it had nothing to do with them.
"It's best if you don't see it, she's lucky if you don't see it, otherwise I won't be able to spare her."
Qi Anan said "hmm": "Mengmeng, when are you coming back?"
Ji Ruomeng thought about it: "Brother Yang still has a job at hand, and he will probably return to city A in the third year of junior high school. I still have to prepare my graduation thesis and re-examination. I should stay at home until the seventh day of junior high school."
"Okay, when you all come back, come to my house to eat hot pot together."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Ruomeng propped his chin and smiled, not knowing what he was thinking, Yu Tianyang looked up at Ji Ruomeng, and handed over a handful of pine nuts he had just peeled: "The child is very motherly, this time you can rest assured Come on, your daughter has a good eye, and she found you a good son-in-law, come and eat some pine nuts to add to the fun."
Ji Ruomeng glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense all the time, don't accidentally say a word about son-in-law in front of Jiang Lu one day, then you will be wonderful."
Yu Tianyang laughed loudly: "Impossible, I'm being cautious, I always treat Jiang Lu like a little uncle."
"Oh, it's really a complicated relationship," Ji Ruomeng rolled her eyes and complained, and then said with emotion: "Jiang Lu can have An An by his side, it's God's compensation for him, what a blessing."
Yu Tianyang's dog eyes were bright and dignified, and he was very quick to answer the conversation: "I am so lucky to have you by my side!"
Ji Ruomeng laughed, and while his parents were cooking in the kitchen and couldn't see him, he leaned over and kissed Yu Tianyang on the cheek.
…
When Jiang Lu came back in the evening, Qi Anan lay on the table looking at the two couplets, and turned to greet him: "Jiang Lu, which of these two posters do you think is better?"
She sat dishonestly on the chair, the two front legs of the chair were raised high, maintaining a terrifying balance.
This was the scene as soon as Jiang Lu entered the door, he was secretly startled, and hugged Qi An'an from behind calmly, the chair under her "clicked", and landed smoothly.
He wanted to scold her a little bit, but after hugging her, he really didn't want to give up a word.
Forget it, Jiang Lu rested his chin lightly on Qi Anan's shoulder, and said in a deep and magnetic voice, "Can't you choose?"
Qi An'an nodded seriously: "Yes, these two were given by Teacher Lin and a senior sister. I think they both have good meanings. Which one should I post?"
Jiang Lu tapped Qi Anan's right hand lightly: "This one."
There is Baifu in Ruyi's family, and his finger just landed on the word "home".
Qi Anan's cheeks were a little hot: "Okay, then this one, I'll put it on now." After she finished speaking, she got up from his arms and happily bent down to move the chair.
Jiang Lu smiled: "What are you doing?"
Qi Anan blinked and understood, she smiled and handed him the Spring Festival couplets: "Then you post it, I can't reach it."
Jiang Lu stepped forward and leaned over slightly, hugging Qi An'an. It's not a horizontal princess hug, but a gesture like hugging a child.
He raised his head: "Now we can arrive."
Qi Anan couldn't help laughing, and posted the couplet without saying a word while blushing.
"When your brother comes back in the next year, I will pay a formal visit." Suddenly Jiang Lu said softly.
"Did Yu Tianyang show off to you?" Qi Anan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Let's not use it, you and my brother are already so familiar."
Jiang Lu said warmly: "This is courtesy, it should be."
He had long planned to make an official visit, but he hadn't mentioned it to Qi An'an yet. Since Yu Tianyang told him, Ji Ruomeng must have talked about it with An An.
Jiang Lu thought about this, and then told Qi Anan his thoughts to reassure her. Although the situation of the two of them is somewhat different from other people's families, his baby is no different from others.
The next day was New Year's Eve, when Jiang Lu woke up in the morning, Qi An'an who was still sleeping soundly came into view.
There were two blushes on her cheeks that hadn't dissipated, and under the slightly open neckline, there were spots on her fair skin.
For a moment, I remembered that she was crying aggrievedly last night, unable to open her sleepy eyes, but she was worried about his "depressive tendencies" and afraid that he would lose, so she insisted on hugging his neck and letting him do everything.
At the end I had no strength, but I still did not forget to kiss him from time to time, kissing carelessly, which made him laugh and feel pity.
I bullied her last night, from now on... Try to control it from now on.
Jiang Lu leaned over and gently kissed Qi An'an's tender cheek again and again.
Qi An'an didn't wake up, but pouted his lower lip in response, as if responding.
Jiang Lu laughed and hugged her tightly, his heart full of love and affection. Ann, you don't know how much I love you.
Since that day, those frightening nightmares have never troubled him again. Jiang Lu thought, he should never have such a dream again, and the only thing left in his life is peace and stability.
Qi Anan didn't wake up until almost noon today. She is not usually a sleeper, but she was really tired last night, and she couldn't wake up today. Even when she sat up now, her legs still felt weak.
She moved to wash, Jiang Lu heard the movement and walked up, looked at it for a while with a smile, rubbed his nose and asked, "An'an, can I carry you away?"
Qi Anan had slightly disheveled hair on her head, her cheeks were still flushed, and her eyes complained: "You...you laugh at me."
"I don't have one." Jiang Lu smiled and stepped forward to lift her up and carefully put her on the soft cushion on the floor of the bedroom.
He turned around and went back to the shelf in the bathroom, took the toothbrush and squeezed the toothpaste, went back and squatted in front of Qi An'an, with a broken smile in his eyes: "Come brush your teeth."
Qi Anan looked at him incredulously: "Jiang Lu, if you spoil me like this... I don't have any objections, but if you spoil me, you must not let me go."
Jiang Lu tapped her forehead lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you want to?"
He gestured to her with a toothbrush in his hand, and Qi Anan opened his mouth with a smile, revealing a mouthful of neat little white teeth, so cute as hell.
But he was still worried, and he said vaguely: "Jiang Lu, you dote on me so much. You can't do this when you have a child. If the child is spoiled, it will be a failure of family education..."
Jiang Lu's heart became hot when he heard this, he stopped his hands, and lowered his head to kiss her chattering little mouth.
"Ugh...toothpaste foam!"
"I can't help it."
…
On New Year's Eve, we must keep the year old and eat dumplings.
Jiang Lu had never experienced these new year events in the previous twenty years. For him, there were three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and every day was the same, and the New Year's Eve just made him look weaker and pitiful amidst the lights of thousands of houses.
As for his diet, he has never been careful. He doesn't care about his appetite, and he doesn't bother to take care of himself, but this year is different, this year he has An An by his side.
Jiang Lu looked at Qi An'an who was walking around in the kitchen, and couldn't help laughing: "An'an, go eat and watch TV, you are not needed here."
"What's so good about TV, it's not as good as you." Qi An'an was used to saying these words, and now he opened his mouth even more.
With Jiang Lu's hand, a good dumpling skin was pinched and broken.
He casually threw the crushed dumpling aside: "An'an, if you're not hungry, or we'll eat it later..."
Qi Anan quickly hugged Jiang Lu's waist, rubbed her face on his shoulder, and smiled coquettishly: "I'm hungry, I'm hungry, you have to make me full..." She pursed her lips and smiled, leaning her head on Jiang Lu's back completely I stopped talking.
Jiang Lu also smiled, and continued to work on the task at hand.
Maybe he does have a talent for doing things, he has never made dumplings before today. But it's okay, it's not bad.
The cooked dumplings are floating with dense white air, and under the bright and warm yellow light, they show an infinitely warm feeling.
Qi An'an praised without hesitation: "Lu Lu, you are such a treasure, I am so lucky to have tricked a talent like you!"
She ate dishonestly, and poked Jiang Lu's cheek with her empty hand: "I am so good-looking and virtuous, I will definitely be envied to death by others."
Jiang Lu looked over with a smile, Qi An gave him a hand, he smiled and took it back, and ate obediently.
Compared to her, Jiang Lu wouldn't say such things. He served Qi An'an some food, and said softly, "Eat more if you like."
He reached out and tucked the broken hair on her sideburns behind his ears, the warm and smooth touch of his fingertips made his heart burn slightly. There is one more person around, but it is better than countless laughter.
It turns out that this is the feeling of Chinese New Year.
It turns out... this is the feeling of home.
He felt like a traveler who had traveled a long distance and wandered, until now, he finally got rid of his exhaustion.
The lights outside the window are brightly lit, and the warm-toned lights and red lanterns make the fireworks more intense.
Nearly midnight, fireworks exploded in the night outside, brightly illuminating the entire sky. Qi An'an's eyes lit up, he got up from the sofa with a smile on his face, and lay down on the floor-to-ceiling window to stare.
She watched the fireworks, but Jiang Lu's eyes fell on her.
The colorful and beautiful fireworks reflected on her black and white eyes, snow-skinned red lips, like an elf girl in mythology.
In the bang after bang, Qi Anan didn't notice that Jiang Lu went to the study quietly, and after a while, he returned to his side.
"An'an, get up first."
Qi An'an didn't know, so he glanced at Jiang Lu. Generally, when Jiang Lu came to take care of her, there must be a reason: the floor is too cold, he wears too little, eating spicy food and cold food will hurt his stomach, etc... But today is fine, the floor is covered with soft carpets, and she is wearing thick fleece pajamas again.
Qi Anan stood up, only to find that Jiang Lu's eyelashes were trembling.
Finally, he took a deep breath. Amidst the fireworks, he knelt down on one knee and gently raised the small box in his hand. Inside was a shining diamond ring.
He said: "An'an, ever since I was sensible, the world has told me that I am not worthy of being loved. But...you appeared, and I know that I am the one most favored by God. Maybe you don't know, you are to me Say what it means."
It means that all the beauty and warmth in this world are held in his arms.
Jiang Lu's eyes were clear, and the love and tenderness in his eyes were almost condensed into substance: "An An, will you marry me?"
Fireworks bloom in the dark night, and the countdown sound faintly rings in my ears, indicating that the new year is coming.
Qi Anan's eyes were blurred, but she couldn't restrain the smile on her lips. She answered every word very solemnly: "I am willing."
Jiang Lu smiled, held Qi An'an's hand, and put the ring on her ring finger very gently.
He stood up, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Qi Anan's eyes with his fingertips, covered the ends of her eyes with his lips and kissed again and again.
Qi Anan hugged Jiang Lu tightly: "Jiang Lu, Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, I love you."
In the future, for the rest of my life, there will be rivers and mountains, and I will finally return home with peace of mind.
