Lu Yan recalled: "I went to the school the year before last, but according to people in the school, the choir list has long been lost."
Jiang Chengyi listened and made a phone call.
The other end of the phone seemed to be busy. After waiting for a while, the other party never answered. Jiang Chengyi had to throw the phone back to the center console and asked her, "Do you have any impression of who was in the choir at that time?"
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Chengyi and didn't answer.
What impression can you have? Since being with him, her world has shrunk to only two parts: 1. Study; 2. Jiang Chengyi.
Looking back now, she didn't pay much attention to the school groups established later, except for the cheerleading team and the Olympiad that she joined in the first year of high school.
Tang Jie said several times that she prioritized sex over friends, but she was not wrong at all.
She only remembered that the lead singer of the choir was Ding Jing, because Ding Jing's voice was too recognizable, but she had no idea who the rest were.
"What about you?" she asked Jiang Chengyi, "Do you remember who the choir members are?"
Jiang Chengyi choked, obviously like Lu Yan, he didn't pay much attention to other things back then.
Two people with each other, no one needs to say who.
Lu Yan glanced back out the window.
In the third year of high school, he was busy with homework. Jiang Chengyi also played basketball after class, but he always found time to find her.
At that time, Lu Yan's mother took care of her very strictly. If she didn't catch up with school activities, she could stay with him for at most half an hour, and then she had to rush home.
Because of this, every date is extraordinarily precious and sweet.
When they were first together, Jiang Chengyi was very disciplined. At most, he would hold her little hand and talk to her in front of people, and he would kiss her and hug her later, but it was basically within the acceptable range. Then there's no slack when it comes to buying snacks and gifts for her.
She knew that his family was in good condition. She heard that when his grandfather was still alive, she allocated a part of the shares to Jiang Chengyi's name, and left a will for Jiang Chengyi's father to manage it. into the account.
Even so, at the beginning of their relationship, she still refused to accept Jiang Chengyi's gift out of a girl's unique pride and self-respect.
But he couldn't hold it back: "I think my dad coaxes my mother like this. You are my girlfriend, so why can't I buy you gifts."
Although Jiang Chengyi rarely mentions his family situation, but occasionally he mentions it, and he can always hear that his parents are very loving.
She was faintly envious.
The key point is that Jiang Chengyi is quite discerning, and every time she chooses a gift that suits her taste.
As the relationship between the two of them warmed up, she slowly let go of her restraint.
Unexpectedly, after a long time, Jiang Chengyi's big tail wolf attribute was finally exposed.
Once, in the second semester of high school, Jiang Chengyi caught a cold because he drank too much ice-cold soda after the game. However, as the finals were approaching, Jiang Chengyi, as the captain, was still taken to the basketball hall by the coach for training every day.
Knowing this, Lu Yan put cold medicine and Four Seasons antiviral oral liquid in her schoolbag and went to Jiang Chengyi.
When they got there, Lu Yan quietly took a look at the court, and saw Jiang Chengyi sitting on the bench next to the basketball court, watching the other players practice.
His head was leaning against the wall behind him, he was a little lazy, and his face was not very good-looking, but he was still in high spirits and talked to the coach next to him.
As soon as she sat down here, he saw her.
After training at noon, he draped his uniform over his shoulders, said a few words to the others, and stayed behind for an excuse.
When the other team members were gone, he and she walked to the empty lounge, one after the other, as usual.
"Why are you here?" After entering, he closed the door and asked her, keeping a distance of about one meter from her when he spoke.
Lu Yan put down her schoolbag and opened the zipper. He hadn't looked for her for a few days. Although she could vaguely guess the reason, she was still a little unhappy when she saw him. She silently took out the medicine and handed it to him: "Give it to you. of."
Jiang Chengyi was taken aback.
After he took it over, Lu Yan added, "My mother gave me this every time I caught a cold, and it got better very quickly."
Jiang Chengyi laughed, but still refused to approach, and said, "Okay, I'll take the medicine now."
After drinking the medicine, he finally saw that she was not happy.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Yan looked at him.
He hadn't seen each other for several days. Not only did he not show any closeness, but the distance between the two was as far as strangers.
She was very angry.
Okay, if he doesn't want to come over, let her go.
She approached him and asked him, "Why don't you come to see me these days?"
As he stepped back, he explained with a smile: "I'm too busy, and I'm not having a cold, I'll go to you when I'm done."
What excuse is this
Seeing that he had retreated to the locker, she had to stop and look up at him angrily: "Can't you come to me if you have a cold
He leaned his head back against the cabinet door, tried to distance himself from her as much as possible, looked down at her, and said with a smile, "No, the midterm exam is coming soon, I'm afraid it will spread to you."
"Can you be contagious just by talking?"
He saw that she was indeed a little angry, and began to play a rogue, teasing her in a low voice: "I'm afraid I can't help but do something else."
He spoke with the nasal voice characteristic of colds, which sounded very different from usual.
As if someone was blowing hot air behind her ear, Lu Yan's face turned red unexpectedly.
He was still laughing, his voice low and magnetic, like a hook: "I'm just asking if you're afraid?"
She pretended to stare at him angrily, and when he was talking, she put her arms around his neck, kissed him, and looked into his eyes: "Do you think I'm afraid?"
She intends to imitate his tone.
For some reason, after saying this, she suddenly felt a little ashamed and wanted to run away when he let go.
But as soon as he turned around, he was pulled into his arms.
There was still a faint medicinal fragrance between his lips and teeth, as if he had counted the weight of the past few days together. The kiss was deeper and more urgent than ever before. After a while, his breathing became heavier and heavier. , wrapped around her waist with one hand, and poked in along the hem of her clothes with the other hand, and grabbed her where she was caught off guard.
There was no warning this time. Lu Yan only felt that it was numb and numb as if it had been overcharged. When she understood what happened, she hurriedly took a bite from him.
Taking advantage of the gap when he let go of the pain, she pushed him away and ran out, cursing, "Ah, you big bastard."
He pulled her back and panted, "Don't run."
She was far more at a loss than shyness, and glared at him "savagely": "you, you, are you still like just now?"
Jiang Chengyi was finally able to breathe evenly, coaxing her and saying, "I'm not like that anymore, I'm a bastard, don't be angry."
After finally coaxing Lu Yan to calm down, the two sat on the stool to rest. He closed his eyes and rested his head on the wardrobe, as if he was aftertastes something, while drinking water, he said a few words softly.
Lu Yan's ears were very sharp, and she immediately squinted at him, but he spoke so softly that he couldn't tell the difference.
Afterwards, she pressed him several times, but he denied it: "Ah, nothing was said."
The next day, Lu Yan really caught a cold.
Jiang Chengyi had expected this for a long time. When he broke up yesterday, he bought her a bunch of Banlangen and antiviral oral liquid, because he was afraid that her illness would come as soon as he did.
After drinking the medicine and blowing her nose, Lu Yan remembered what happened yesterday, and couldn't help tilting her head, imitating Jiang Chengyi's mouth shape yesterday, thinking back and forth.
After a few times, I realized that the words he said were: "It's developing really well."
There was actually such a person, she was so angry and funny, she put down the pen angrily.
At first, I thought this was too much to say, but only during the summer vacation when the college entrance examination ended, Lu Yan realized that at some point, Jiang Chengyi had the ability to say something 10,000 times too much.
The bell interrupted her memory.
It was Jiang Chengyi's phone that rang.
She turned her head to look at him, he seemed to have been waiting for the call, and as soon as it rang, he picked it up.
After saying a few words, Jiang Chengyi said, "Got it."
Pull the car out of position and drive forward.
"Where are we going?" She looked puzzled. "Are we going to the school to find the choir list, or to the witness you mentioned just now?"
Jiang Chengyi cherishes his words like gold: "Eye witnesses."
Lu Yan was greatly surprised: "Is there really any witnesses?"
Jiang Chengyi was very reluctant to answer: "Don't you count as one, the person you bumped into in the alley that night is most likely the murderer."
Lu Yan puzzled: "Besides Ding Jing and me, has anyone else encountered the murderer?"
"Not sure." Like a very remote place, Jiang Chengyi opened the navigation, "It should be an old man, I just asked my colleague to call the radio station to verify the person's phone number, go to this person's household registration address to find out, I hope this person can provide some valuable information."
"Old man?"
Jiang Chengyi glanced at her: "This old man, like you, claims to have seen a person who should have died a long time ago, and called the radio for this matter. This person is rather ignorant and superstitious, and believes that what he saw is a ghost. , I suspect he may have stumbled upon the murderer."
After Lu Yan digested the information in this sentence, she groped a few things back and forth in her mind, and gradually felt that the originally complicated net was showing signs of clearing the clouds.
After thinking about it for a while, she looked up and looked forward. It was almost noon, and Jiang Chengyi didn't seem to have any plans to send her home. , she rested at home for half a month, he wouldn't really take her to investigate the case.
Just as she was thinking, her phone rang.
It's Tang Jie.
"Where are you?" Tang Jie asked, "work?"
Lu Yan: "I didn't go to work, so I took leave."
Tang Jie seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "It's better to ask for leave, it's safer at home than at work, how about being with Jiang Chengyi?"
Lu Yan was vague: "Well, outside."
Tang Jie: "I have something to tell you, didn't Deng Man's mother ask us to pick up something a few days ago? She and Uncle Deng were rushing to move to a new house and asked if we could pick it up tomorrow. If not, she plans to wait for the winter solstice. Give it to us when you go to Deng Man's birthday."
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Chengyi, hesitated for a while, and said, "Okay, I'll go pick it up tomorrow."
Tang Jie said, "That's fine, then we will meet on Songshan Road tomorrow."
