Song Qiaoxi's eyes were open, she subconsciously wanted to take a step back, but Chu Jin pulled her waist back.
Because of the difference in steps, unlike the first kiss, she had to hold her head high, Song Qiaoxi could clearly see Chu Jin's eyelashes, thick eyebrows, and straight nose bridge.
The taste of warm coconut on the tip of the tongue, and then the taste of this coconut ice cream becomes piping hot.
For a moment, she seemed to have forgotten where she was, her consciousness was chaotic, and all her senses could only sense the boy in front of her.
Chu Jin let go of his tight waist, the color of his lips darkened, and the corners of his lips had a smile.
He took the leftover ice cream cup from her hand, the poor plastic ice cream cup had been deformed by Song Qiaoxi, Chu Jin lowered his head against her shoulder, shook his head and smiled and said, "Child, can you close your eyes next time? ?"
"Ah..." Song Qiaoxi was stunned for a moment, but she didn't react. It's been almost a year since the last kiss, she forgot what it's like to kiss...
She scratched her head and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Well, I'll remember next time, it seems, in the movie, everyone has their eyes closed..."
"Shut it up?" Chu Jin raised his head, glanced straight at her, and closed his eyes.
Song Qiaoxi wrapped his hands around his neck, snorted softly, and closed his eyes...
The damp sea breeze brushed against the girl's bare arms, and his hand touched the tender skin that was a little sticky.
The summer when he was eighteen and the summer when she was seventeen are destined to be unforgettable.

When returning to the hotel, in addition to the snacks for supper, Chu Jin's schoolbag was full of souvenirs. Because Song Qiaoxi bought too much, both of them still carried a pocket.
As a souvenir, I bought charcoal-fired almond cakes from various bakery shops, crispy meat, phoenix rolls with seaweed and meat floss, walnut cookies, jerky, licorice lemon, peanut candy, shrimp noodles...
Song Qiaoxi made a long list, and she almost couldn't get out of the bakery where the souvenirs came. She wanted to buy it for her parents, Grandpa Chu, Aunt Fang Zheming and the others, as well as Grandpa from Qizhou and friends in the courtyard, Tai. Grandma, grandfather, uncle from the city...
She is a warm little girl. When she was a child, when she returned to her grandmother's house in Taicheng, she would bring a small stone as a gift to Wang Junyang, who had never been to Taicheng.
People around her can feel her goodness, and she will always be like a luminous little sun, illuminating everyone.
The two returned to the hotel with large and small bags, and came to the door of the hotel room with two bags.
Song Qiaoxi put down the things in her hand and took out the room card from Chu Jin's schoolbag.
"Beep", the two entered her room together.
Most of the things she bought were for her to go back to give away, and Chu Jin carefully helped her sort them into categories and put them in the boxes.
"Chu Jin, are you hungry?" Song Qiaoxi took the packaged snacks out of the plastic bag and put them on the dining table one by one. Following her mother's way, she unpacked the box, broke apart the disposable chopsticks, and went back and forth. Rub it off to remove the barb, "Let's watch TV and eat together?"
"I'm hungry." Chu Jin was really hungry. Boys of this age have a big appetite, and all they eat for dinner are snacks, not serious dishes.
He finished packing the things on the ground and looked up at her.
Under the soft lighting, at the dining table in the corner of the living room, Song Qiaoxi classified the food in a decent manner, and secretly ate a small fish ball, chewing it like a hamster, for fear that he would find out.
In a trance, a burst of heat surged through Chu Jin's chest.
How good would it be if this was his home
He hopes that there is such a lovely hostess in his home.
After setting up the food and tableware, Song Qiaoxi turned on the TV, put her hands on the dining table, and stared at the TV screen to change channels one by one, muttering, "Cantonese channel, English channel, CCTV..."
"I'll go back to the house to get the laptop and put Kangxi on for you, okay?" Chu Jin guessed her thoughts in a second, and stood up with his hands on his knees.
His little mistress smiled sweetly, and seemed to appreciate the decision, "Okay, then come back quickly, I'll wait for you."
Chu Jin took the room card and returned to his room.
While taking away the laptop and power cord, he glanced at the open box, where in the corner stood a small black velvet box.
He walked over, bent down to open the box, and bent the corners of his mouth at the pair of couple rings in the box.
After closing the box and putting it back in the box, Chu Jin went to Song Qiaoxi with his laptop in his arms.
The two sat together, and Song Qiaoxi did three things in one mind.
She took care of herself to eat, and kept an eye on the food in Chu Jin's bowl at all times. Seeing what he liked to eat, she allocated more for him into the bowl. She also watched "Kangxi is Coming" while staring at the computer screen, and sent out from time to time " giggles" laughter.
"I like Xiao S very much, and Xiao S is also a Gemini." When her mother was not around, Song Qiaoxi's table manners were not so serious, she bit the head of her chopsticks and said to Chu Jin seriously, "You are an Aries, and Gemini and Aries are very compatible. "
"Yeah." Chu Jin took a napkin and wiped the sauce from the corner of her mouth.
"I'm going to have my seventeenth birthday, and I'll be eighteen next year." Song Qiaoxi licked her lips and tilted her head to think.
Chu Jin picked up the glass and took a sip of the sparkling water in the glass, "Xixi?"
"Yeah." Song Qiaoxi stared at the laughing little S on the computer screen again, and responded casually.
"Tomorrow, we won't go to the Grand Sanba Archway with them, shall I accompany you on your birthday at the hotel?" Chu Jin whispered, looking up at her.
Tomorrow, the students who came for the exam together will visit the scenic spots in Macau together under the arrangement of ground contact. Chu Jin doesn't want to go, and he doesn't want Song Qiaoxi to go either. He has other plans.
"A birthday for me?" Song Qiaoxi retracted her gaze from the computer screen, with a little anticipation in her heart, and a little nervous, "Why do you celebrate my birthday alone?"
Her birthday is only a few days away, and as usual, it's celebrated with mom and dad every year.
"It's rare that it's just me and you. I want to celebrate your birthday alone." Chu Jin put down the glass and said to her with a smile.
"Then do I also owe you a separate birthday?" Song Qiaoxi blinked, but Chu Jin's birthday was on March 27th, which was always in school, so it was difficult to give him a birthday alone.
Waiting for college, there should be a chance, right
"Anyway, I don't want to go to the scenic spots on a hot day. I'll listen to your arrangement tomorrow." He lowered his head and took a sip of the frozen lemon tea, and Song Qiaoxi concealed his inner expectations.
The two slowly ate supper, it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening, in fact, both of them were full, but neither of them proposed to leave.
There was a hint of forbidden ambiguity in the air.
The lively variety show music and Shen Yulin's laughter came from the laptop. Chu Jin didn't like watching variety shows at all, but he liked watching it with Song Qiaoxi.
Just like when he was a child, he didn't like watching cartoons, but he could accompany her to watch "The Little Mouse on the Prairie".
As long as you are with her, anything is fine.
For the past ten years, Chu Jin has buried a wish in his heart. He wants to have a home of his own, a home only for him and Song Qiaoxi.
"Can't you eat it?" Chu Jin stood up, leaned over and asked Song Qiaoxi, got a reply from the little girl pouting and shaking her head, he smiled, "Then I've put away the lunch boxes, you go to bed early, I'll go back first. "
"Let's pack it together." Song Qiaoxi also hurriedly stood up and started to pack the lunch boxes and leftovers.
Before leaving, Song Qiaoxi sent Chu Jin to the door, she didn't know why she sent it, it was only two steps away...
But young couples, sometimes, don't even want to be separated for a second.
Chu Jin hugged her lightly, rubbed Song Qiaoxi's curly hair, and whispered in her ear: "Tomorrow morning, someone will bring you clothes and shoes. I'll wait for you in the restaurant on the top floor."
--
The next morning, in front of the full-length mirror of the hotel suite, Song Qiaoxi watched the hotel waiter bring a small ironed dark green silk skirt and a pair of BlingBling silver gradient Jimmy Choo high heels, a little overwhelmed.
So big, Song Qiaoxi has never worn high heels.
Mom's high heels, she stole it when she was seven or eight years old, when it was about dinner time, Chu Jin sat on the sofa reading a book.
Song Qiaoxi, who was still a glutinous dumpling, secretly put on her mother's high-heeled shoes, and stumbled after walking two steps. She was laughed at by her mother for a long time.
At that time, my mother held her on her knees and pinched Xiao Nuo Tuan's face, "Xi Xi, you are still too young to wear high heels. When you are 18 years old, your mother will buy you the number one in your life. A pair of high-heeled shoes, a girl with high-heeled shoes is a big girl and grows up."
Neither Song Qiaoxi nor Song's mother noticed that when the little boy reading on the sofa heard this, he put down the book in his hand and glanced at the little girl ignorantly.
This year, Song Qiaoxi is seventeen years old and has one more year to come of age.
On her seventeenth birthday, she received her first pair of high heels.
Did Chu Jin give her high heels, did she want her to grow up
Song Qiaoxi was wearing a bright yellow nightdress with a pudding dog printed on it, squatted down and took the pair of high heels in her hands.
The silver gradient high-heeled shoes have a heel of about five or six centimeters. They are exquisite and beautiful, as beautiful as works of art, like Cinderella's crystal slippers.
She held on to the shelf beside the full-length mirror with her hand, threw off the large cloth slippers of the hotel, and tried on the pair of "crystal slippers".
Song Qiaoxi's feet are small, tender and white, and she usually wears size 35 shoes. These high-heeled shoes fit her slender feet very well, and the size is just right.
Song Qiaoxi thought that she would not be able to control 6 cm high heels at all. She tried to walk two steps and found that she could walk very steadily, and she was not embarrassed to sneak into her mother's high heels when she was a child.
Standing in front of the mirror, the girl pulled her wide nightdress slightly higher, revealing her slender calves and small rounded knees. The high heels visually stretched her already slender calves longer.
She blushed in the mirror, her wet almond eyes showed excitement and shyness, Song Qiaoxi's heartbeat was fast.
"It's so beautiful..." she muttered to herself.
Even, a little bit began to dislike the childish nightdress on his body.
Go to the bathroom and put on the dark green suspender silk skirt. She has cold white skin, and the dark green makes her skin so white.
Song Qiaoxi tied her long curly hair like seaweed in a low bun, and two strands of hair naturally hung down from her ears.
Before going out, she hardly recognized herself in the mirror.
Is the difference between a "woman" and a "girl" only a pair of high heels and a beautiful silk dress
--
Song Qiaoxi took the elevator to the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel. Looking at the decoration and the attitude of the waiters, she knew that this was a very high-end restaurant.
On the way to the restaurant, there was a long corridor of more than 100 meters. She was not used to the glances of passers-by.
She went to the high-end restaurant with her parents several times, but it was the first time that she and Chu Jin were the only two children.
After all, she and Chu Jin usually eat KFC, McDonald's, Yoshinoya, and 7-Eleven. The more expensive ones are down-to-earth foods such as sheep scorpions, roast duck and copper pot shabu-shabu.
The waiter guided her to the dining table in the corner, and the man sitting with his back to her stood up gracefully, looking at his eyes full of surprises.
Chu Jin wore a black shirt, slim-fitting trousers and casual leather shoes, her hair was combed up, and there was no more youthful hair scattered on her forehead.
I don't know why, when Song Qiaoxi saw him wearing a shirt, the word "little prince" came to mind.
Embarrassed by his direct gaze, Song Qiaoxi felt her cheeks were hot and numb, and asked in a low voice, "Does it look good?"
Chu Jin took her hand, opened the chair for her, and said in Song Qiaoxi's ear, "Well, it's very beautiful."
He knew that Song Qiaoxi didn't like western food, so he brought her to eat this high-end Cantonese food.
Chu Jin had chosen the dishes in advance, and Chu Jin knew Song Qiaoxi's taste very well.
Lychee rose tea as a drink, sweet and sour appetizers, ordered the abalone crisp with soft crisp skin and stuffed with abalone and diced chicken, also ordered the golden sand crispy shrimp ball with crispy shrimp skin and wrapped full of salted egg yolk, and the crispy skin roasted pork. Honeydew black vinegar bone, rice net sausage, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, belly grouper pot with black truffle sauce, scrambled egg with chives and prawns in black truffle sauce, scallop baby vegetables in soup and signature barbecued pork fried rice, dessert is dried tangerine peel and red bean paste.
High-end Cantonese cuisine, the amount of dishes is not large, it is suitable for Song Qiaoxi who has a small appetite and wants to eat everything, but at the end, there are still some left.
Song Qiaoxi leaned forward slightly and said to Chu Jin, "Let's pack it? This way, we have dinner, and the rest is a waste. Every dish is delicious! Oh, it would be nice if we could pack it up and take it back to Beijing. Now, let Mom and Dad and Grandpa Chu also taste such delicious food."
She dressed like an elegant and beautiful little woman today, but her demeanor was still that of a child. The more she did, the more attractive she became, like a rose in bud, more like an immature peach.
Song Qiaoxi didn't know it herself.
"Okay." Chu Jin nodded and asked the waiter to pack the rest of the dishes.
Today is her birthday. The little girl is the biggest and listens to everything.
"Let's go back to the room?" Chu Jin took her hand and the two went downstairs together.
Along the way, Song Qiaoxi was still thinking, is this a birthday? Although the lunch is very delicious, I always feel that if it is a birthday, there seems to be something less.
Holding hands by Chu Jin, Song Qiaoxi discovered that they were returning to Chu Jin's room when they reached the door of the room.
After entering the door, the room was cleaned up. There was a milk tea-colored cake on the small tea table, and the surface was decorated with a small golden crown. There was a high-end SLR camera newly released in 2007 on the chair beside it. and a set of lenses.
Song Qiaoxi walked to the tea table and was speechless.
"Happy birthday." Chu Jin hugged her from behind, wrapped his arms around her waist, and kissed Song Qiaoxi's earlobe.
"This..." The little girl was kissed, her body numb and itchy as if she had been electrocuted. She looked at the DSLR and the camera and exclaimed, "This is so expensive!"
From childhood to adulthood, the two have spent ten birthdays together, and because they are together every day, the two do not deliberately prepare birthday gifts for each other.
When she was very young, Song Qiaoxi also made a bracelet for Chu Jin, bought a dog doll, but never saw him play with him, and even in the boiler room, she couldn't see a trace of her gift to him.
Later, when he got older, Song Qiaoxi realized that Chu Jin was a person with no material desires. Besides tinkering with computers, he read books and played the piano.
So when she was a teenager, she went to bookstores, and when she saw interesting piano scores, she would buy them for Chu Jin, and when she saw the new original book, she would buy them for him.
Chu Jin never prepared any special gifts for her for her birthday.
But Song Qiaoxi likes Harry Potter. He will ask Gu Wei's mother to buy hardcover original books and Blu-ray discs from the UK. Knowing what kind of snacks she likes to eat recently, he will always have stock at home.
She thought that this was how she and Chu Jin got along.
Even if two people become lovers, this will not change.
Song Qiaoxi's thoughts were interrupted by Chu Jin's breathing in her ear. Neither of them had been drinking, but Chu Jin's breath was hot.
"SLRs and lenses are really too expensive..." she repeated, her voice so small as if she was whispering, "Did you know that photography is poor for three generations, and DSLRs ruin your life?"
Chu Jin was amused by her words, "I'm an investment and I'll pay back."
"You really don't know how expensive this lens is?! You also invested in me to buy a camera from your New Year's red envelopes when you were young, and you haven't paid for it yet." Song Qiaoxi felt oppressed by him and turned around in a panic. He retorted with his arms propped against the railing of the bay window.
"Really? I never buy at a loss since I was a child." Chu Jin raised his eyelids, took a step forward, and put his arms around her waist in a close-fitting silk dress, "You go to college in the United States to study photography, we Xixi will use it The best equipment."
Song Qiaoxi stared at his face, and when she mentioned going to college in the United States, she felt a little dazed for a moment.
Chu Jin's eyes were shining, but his eyes were tired, and there was a faint blue under his eyes.
Recently, no, it's been a year or two, Song Qiaoxi always felt that Chu Jin was very tired, but she didn't know what he was busy with besides studying.
When Song Qiaoxi was a child, she couldn't understand the books Chu Jin read, and sometimes she couldn't understand what Chu Jin said. Even now, aside from the in-class knowledge she learned in school and preparing for the SAT and TOEFL with her, she still doesn't understand. He doesn't know anything about what he does with the computer every day.
But what does that matter
She likes him.
From childhood to adulthood, if you must write a love letter to someone, from the age of six, Song Qiaoxi has only one candidate. If she wants to marry, she only wants to marry Chu Jin.
The lives of myself and Chu Jin were tied together eleven years ago, like two small plants planted very close together. Eleven years have passed, and the dense rhizomes have long been entangled together.
To separate, it is necessary to cut off the rhizome.
I didn't think so before, but now I think about it, the university has to be separated for four years...
She was reluctant.
What's more, Grandpa Chu's physical condition is still unstable. Even if he occasionally flashed a little selfishness and asked Chu Jin to go to study with him, under this circumstance, Song Qiaoxi would not let him do it.
If Chu Jin didn't look so tired, Grandpa Chu was healthy and stable, and she had confidence in the four years in a different place, but now...
Song Qiaoxi took the initiative to wrap her arms around Chu Jin's waist, burying her head in his arms, feeling a little stuffy in her heart.
After a moment of silence, Song Qiaoxi raised her head and said softly, "Chu Jin, shall I stay in Beijing to go to university? If you can't pass the Qing University entrance examination, you can find a school that is closer to you. Anyway, there are so many good universities in Haidian..."
"No, you go..." Chu Jin held her face and kissed Song Qiaoxi's eyes, "Do what you like to do, become who you want to be, you have always been my pride ."
Because of Chu Jin's kiss, Song Qiaoxi closed her eyes.
After listening to his words, Chu Jin didn't give her any chance to answer, and kissed her forehead gently, the tip of her nose, her cheeks, and finally her soft cherry lips.
The young man seemed to kiss Song Qiaoxi's grievance for parting, his love and reluctance for the girl, into Song Qiaoxi's heart.
Song Qiaoxi gasped, was kissed away, and both hands helplessly grabbed Chu Jin's arm.
Suddenly, her hand was held by Chu Jin, her fingertips were cold, and something was covered with the middle finger of her right hand.
She raised her neck and opened her eyes, her fingers still being held by Chu Jin. Because of the cold touch and Chu Jin's gentle and fierce kiss from yesterday, she felt inexplicably aggrieved.
"What..." Song Qiaoxi asked in a sobbing, nasal tone.
When she saw the ring on her hand, she was stunned for a moment.
Chu Jin grabbed her ring-wearing hand, kissed it on the lips, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'll cover it first, and I'll change it for you later."
I know it's selfish...
Xixi, I'm sorry, even if I let you go abroad to study, I want to tie you with a ring in advance.
Let you not forget me.
