Lu Yan quickly recognized the lady as Jiang Chengyi's mother.
I remember that Jiang Chengyi played basketball league games in high school. Jiang's mother appeared in the audience almost every time. Although she sat in an inconspicuous position most of the time, the relaxed and generous bearing of Jiang's mother left a deep impression on people. impression.
Once, out of curiosity, she asked Jiang Chengyi about his mother.
It seems that not long after the college entrance examination, the two made an appointment to meet at the municipal park next to Jiang Chengyi's house. She arrived earlier than the agreed time and waited for him at the entrance of the park.
In June, although there is already summer heat, the weather has not completely warmed up, which is the most comfortable solar term in the year.
She stood in the park, smelled the fragrance of roses floating in the air, felt that everything was too good, and was filled with quiet joy.
Memory is a very strange thing. Many recent events are forgotten in a blink of an eye, but some distant events can be remembered clearly even in irrelevant details.
She remembered that she was wearing a blue daisy dress on a white background that night. It was very beautiful and fit. It was an 18th birthday present that her mother bought for her. It was quite expensive.
For this date, she found out the skirt and ironed it neatly in the room with her mother's iron.
When she was leaving, she told her mother that she would go to the movies with Tang Jie and Deng Man at night.
The mother just happened to be going out. Hearing this, she gave her a meaningful glance, and this glance obviously stayed longer than usual.
She was inexplicably guilty and suspected that her mother had already guessed that she was in love.
However, she is about to go to college, so even if her mother finds out about her and Jiang Chengyi, it should be fine.
On the way to the park, she pondered her mother's attitude, and she was a little curious: did Jiang Chengyi ever mention her to his parents, and if so, what did he say.
The appointed time has come, and Jiang Chengyi has not yet appeared, she began to feel strange and kept looking in the direction he came from.
Five minutes later, he still didn't come, which was something that had never happened before. She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call him, but after hesitating, she put it down proudly.
She told herself that she would wait for him for five minutes at most. If he didn't come again, she would definitely leave. In the next summer vacation, he wouldn't want to ask her out again.
She found a bench and sat down, intending to play games on her phone for a while, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps on the trail behind her.
She turned around and said in surprise, "Ding Jing?"
Ding Jing's face was extremely pale, and she turned her head back and forth as she ran, in a panic, as if there were ghosts chasing her.
After seeing her suddenly, Ding Jing was obviously taken aback.
Lu Yan had never seen Ding Jing so embarrassed. Although she didn't like her, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Ding Jing just glared at her coldly and walked towards the park entrance without saying a word.
Her curiosity was aroused, she stood in front of the bench and looked into the depths of the path, which led to the artificial lake deep in the park. Rose, not even a walker.
While still pondering, Jiang Chengyi's voice came from behind: "Lu Yan."
Looking back, I saw him wearing a black t-shirt, jeans, handsome, with a hint of ruffianness, standing there tall, more dazzling than the rising star of the night sky.
Among the pedestrians passing by, many girls have begun to look here.
She snorted, turned her head and said, "You're late."
Jiang Chengyi looked at her and said with a smile, "I went to get a present for you. It wasted time by going back and forth."
Only then did Lu Yan realize that he had a red box in his hand.
He helped her sit down on the bench, opened the lid, crouched down at her feet, and started taking off her sandals.
She was startled and embarrassed, and hurriedly stopped him: "Oh, I, I, I will come by myself."
But Jiang Chengyi couldn't help but put her fair feet in the palm of his hand, took out the shoes in the box and put them on for her.
After changing both shoes, he looked up at her, his voice was very low and pleasant, and asked her, "Do you like it?"
She looked down and found that they were a pair of big red patent leather flat shoes, each with a bow at the front end, which was worn on her feet, making her instep white like snow.
Later, she learned that the shoes were an Italian brand with an F, and the style of the shoes was called varina.
Her previous sandals were a little worn, but because she just bought them, she was not willing to change them. She remembered that she had never disclosed this to him, and she did not know how he found out.
Filled with an unspeakable joy, she stared at the shoes, left and right, the corners of her mouth raised.
In order to express her love for these shoes, she planned to get up and walk around wearing shoes in front of him, but when her feet moved, she realized that his hand was still holding her ankle, and her palm was very hot.
Her heart skipped a beat and looked at him quietly.
He seemed to have been staring at her just now, his eyes were a little different from usual, very focused, his eyes were very deep, and there was a dark tide in his eyes, and the vortex generally attracted her firmly.
Although his hand remained motionless, the heat in the palm seemed to be able to swim away, numb and numb, along her calf, all the way up, up...
Inexplicably hot, she struggled to stand up.
After walking for a while, he turned around and found that he was still standing at the same place looking at her. The desire in his eyes slowly faded away, and he put on a smile that was not a smile.
She slowly came back to him, and suddenly, unexpectedly, she stepped onto his cheek and kissed him: "Reward you." Then he laughed.
Later, they walked and walked in the alley next to the park. He bought her a lot of food. She ate snacks while looking down at her new shoes from time to time.
It's so beautiful, it matches her white dress so well, I wish everyone around me would notice.
She asked him how he had found such shoes that fit her heart.
He said that his mother likes to buy shoes, and there is a special room at home for shoes. When her mother was not at home, he stood in front of the shoe cabinet and studied for a long time, and found that his mother bought the most shoes of this brand. He doesn't know if it's beautiful or not, but since his mother can buy so many colors of the same model, it should be comfortable, and the possibility of grinding feet is less, so I went to buy it for her.
That was the first time Lu Yan heard Jiang Chengyi take the initiative to talk about his mother.
