MTL - Peach and Plum Do Not Speak (The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms)-Chapter 113
Yan Xi's hand in her pocket became cold, and she watched silently.
As they walked and talked, Xu Jiaer didn't do anything other than to be afraid that An Zhi might fall and hug her.
Yes, and she touched An Zhi's head...
Yan Xi bit her lower lip lightly, her eyelashes fluttering. Then she pinched her brows, feeling that she didn't look like herself anymore.
Yan Xi's gaze swept past, An Zhi was wearing a big blue sweater with a white shirt collar showing at the round neckline. Because she was much shorter than Xu Jiaer, she raised her head to talk to her, her smiling eyes crooked in the morning light.
Yan Xi thought of her eyes, and when she looked at you intently, they shone brightly, like the lens of a camera, directly hitting people's hearts.
Yan Xi involuntarily took two steps forward and stopped abruptly.
They looked so young, energetic, and without any difficulty.
A very simple and pure atmosphere.
She can give Anzhi everything she can't.
Yan Xi's eyes gradually moistened.
She came here just to see her, she's seen her already, knowing she's fine, that's enough.
"Huh." An Zhi paused hesitantly.
"What's wrong?" Xu Jiaer asked her.
"...Nothing." An Zhi suddenly felt a little strange, as if someone was looking at her just now.
"Okay, the exam is finally over, we'll take you to play, you can't spend Christmas alone." Xu Jiaer winked at her.
"Can't I go to bed later? And I didn't bring any luggage..."
When An Zhi was in college, he exchanged several emails with Xu Jiaer. After learning that she was studying at Columbia University, they resumed contact after An Zhi came to Harvard. Xu Jiaer sometimes brings her girlfriends and friends over to play together.
"You come to our place for Christmas. Rachel's house is right next to my school. You can buy everything if you don't have enough. By the way, I will show you around New York."
"What am I doing as a light bulb..."
"No, there will be many friends coming over," Xu Jiaer smiled at her: "There will be a blonde lady."
An Zhi: "…"
They had already walked to the side of the road, and a hot brown-haired woman leaned on the car body and gave them a bright smile.
Xu Jiaer stepped forward to hug and kiss her, An Zhi scratched his face in embarrassment and turned his eyes away.
"Hi, Ann," Rachel grinned and hugged her, sending a sweet kiss on the cheek.
"...Hi, Rachel" An Zhi saw her once or twice, but he was still not used to this warm greeting.
But Xu Jiaer said her girlfriend liked her very much and thought she was cute.
"We will have a merry Christmas, sweetie." Another cheek kiss came over, An Zhi was embarrassed, but Xu Jiaer stopped her with a smile.
She got into the car and went to the back seat, and the two people in the front seat chatted intimately while driving.
Outside the window, you can see that there are many Christmas decorations on both sides of the road. This is the first long holiday in a foreign country.
An Zhi put his face close to the window.
The sky was clear and comfortable, there were still people running along the Charles River, and the lake was clear and blue. The city was still unfamiliar to her, but she didn't dare to go back to that city. She hadn't figured out how to face Yan Xi.
Her thoughts are not here, and her love is not here.
An Zhi thought, if Beicheng wasn't where Yanxi was, it wouldn't matter where she was.
It's just that, without her, she is like a rootless weed, swaying everywhere.
She told herself countless times that what she did was right, she left Beicheng, came to a foreign country, blessed her from afar, stopped putting pressure and burden on her, and pursued her own future.
But this is not an exile of himself. Intimacy is timid, far away, sometimes bearable, sometimes unbearable.
He also had insomnia late at night, suffering, and self-blame. He continued to go to school the next day, and silently hid his feelings in his heart.
The thought of her brought tears to her eyelashes.
I hope she's all well, I hope she doesn't blame herself, it's not her fault, but her greed and delusion.
I hope that all her love, confusion and pain will be settled one day, and she will be able to appear in front of Yan Xi with a better attitude.
The car started slowly, An Zhi closed his eyes and heard the music in the car: "ifyoumissthetrainIamon,youYouwillknowthatIamgone,youcanhearthewhistleblowahundredmiles.
Ahundredmiles, ahundredmiles,,…”
And Rachel was talking: "I'm going to introduce a girlfriend to Ann..."
Xu Jiaer smiled and said, "You can try, but there will always be someone in her heart."
"ah, the poorthing..."
In early January, the summer courses began. An Zhizai had to start teaching assistant work, lead undergraduate experiments, group discussions, change homework, and sit in the office. He had to work 20 hours a week. At the same time, he had to determine the tutor and subject group. She was very busy, and in a blink of an eye, it was the Spring Festival time in China.
There is a Spring Festival Gala Party organized by the international students in the college. Everyone brings their own food, cooks what they can cook, and buys what they can't cook. The TV shows the Spring Festival Gala of the motherland, plays games, dances and chats, but it is also full of joy and laughter. . An Zhi went for a while and then returned to his dormitory.
She sat in a daze for a long time.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yiyi was already one step ahead of her when she decided on the video, and WeChat notified her that she wanted the video.
An Zhi was immediately nervous, she said on WeChat: Wait for me for five minutes.
After putting down her phone, she hurriedly looked in the mirror, changed into a sweater that matched her complexion, washed her face, and put on a bit of lipstick.
Sitting at the desk, I tried to smile a few times in the mirror, controlled my heartbeat, and then opened it.
The first is Liu Yiyi's familiar smiling face: "Xiao Anzhi! Are you okay? Happy New Year!"
She held up the ipad, and there was a fat man behind him who smiled at her.
"Happy New Year!" The familiar feeling struck, An Zhi smiled and greeted them one by one, uncles, grandpa and grandma Yan, and aunts.
There was a lot of laughter over there. Big Fatty Yan and Little Fatty Yan took turns grabbing the Ipad to talk to her. The camera panned for a while, and then returned to Liu Yiyi's hands. She whispered and scolded a few words.
It seems that he came to the room and fixed the Ipad on the table, "Are you busy, do you have enough money?"
"Enough, I have a salary."
"Oh, I know, but isn't your rent $1,800 a month? You're only $30,000 a year, right? I'm afraid you won't be enough."
"No, but I'm wondering whether to change to a cheaper one, there may be..."
Liu Yiyi in the camera hesitated, she glanced to the right, and then said: "No no no, you are in school, and it will be safer to return from the laboratory late in the future. Not enough, your aunt, cough, aunt Send you money."
An Zhi raised his dimples: "I really don't need it. I really have a salary. This semester will be a little more. I don't have any other expenses except the rent. Oh, and the cost of learning to drive is basically unnecessary."
Liu Yiyi asked: "Learn to drive? Didn't you learn to drive in college?" She looked to the side again, and it was obvious that An Zhidu noticed it.
"Yes, the domestic driver's license is not recognized by Massachusetts, so pay more attention to safety."
An Zhidao: "I will. My friend on my side can also drive. She took me a few times and it should be no problem."
Liu Yiyi smiled suddenly, and glanced to the right without any deep meaning, and then his eyes swept over again: "So soon, I have made friends who can teach you to drive, hahaha, be good."
An Zhi was stunned, not understanding what she meant.
Liu Yiyi held back her smile: "Is it a foreigner or a Chinese?"
An Zhi blinked and replied, "It's my high school classmate. She is a graduate student at Columbia University."
Liu Yiyi hooked her lips and smiled: "It's really fate..."
Liu Yiyi looked directly at her, suddenly her eyes blinked, and she gestured to the side quietly.
Eyebrows raised.
An Zhi's heart jumped suddenly, she swallowed and said, "Well, she and her girlfriend will come to play with me. People are very nice and take good care of me.
"Oh..." Liu Yiyi lengthened her voice, and then smiled: "It's great..."
"Cough, alright, then you have a good rest, go home when you have a holiday, tell your aunt first, aunt will book a plane ticket for you..." Liu Yiyi fluttered her bangs, "Ah, I have to see your second uncle... Later You can just click off the video."
She stood up and walked out just like that. Leave the Ipad open.
An Zhi bit his lip and didn't move.
The room is also empty in the video.
As time passed, her heartbeat kept accelerating. She knew that there was someone in the right corner of the video and had been standing there since just now. Listen to her talking to Liu Yiyi.
She doesn't show up.
An Zhi dared not speak.
A lot of emotions were stuck in my chest, and they all hurt.
An Zhi couldn't help sobbing a little.
She blinked her wet eyelashes, and finally saw a little black wool in the lower right corner.
The man was wearing a black sweater.
"Happy New Year."
An Zhi muttered.
