MTL - Peach and Plum Do Not Speak (The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms)-Chapter 38

Yan Xi wasn't quite sure why the conversation between her and An Zhi had reached an impasse. And An Zhi was not very willing to reveal her inner thoughts since she was a child. Even if she was sad, she would only hide and cry secretly. Only when she asks patiently will An Zhi carefully reveal something, which is really distressing.

Yan Xi originally thought that she was in adolescence now, and she was worried that she had no friends of the same age, so she was relieved that Yang Mengmeng appeared, and she also knew that they got along very well. Shouldn't you like adults to interfere too much at this time? But judging from what she just said...

Yan Xi was both soft-hearted and funny.

It seems that she is still a child and likes to stick to her.

"How is the new semester?"

They sat opposite each other in the restaurant, drinking homemade lime kumquat honey water, Yan Xi asked her.

An Zhi bit the straw: "It's okay, there is an English speech contest next week."

"Huh? Want to participate?"

An Zhi nodded, yes. There is still five hundred yuan for the first prize. She wants that money, and it has her use.

Yan Xi stared at her approvingly, with a smile that could not be concealed in his eyes, "Are you still angry?"

An Zhi shook his head stiffly.

Yan Xi thought for a while and said, "I'm not interfering with your making friends..."

An Zhi looked at her and said, "I didn't want to make friends with Chen Wei, it was he who was pestering me."

Only then did Yan Xi show a bit of seriousness: "Then I will tell your head teacher? Or should I talk to his parents?"

An Zhi said nothing, half-soundingly: "That's not necessary..."

Yan Xi pondered silently: Maybe Tao Tao also likes this boy, but she just doesn't realize it now?

In Yan Xi's concept, love is never early or late, and it is normal to have ignorant feelings towards the opposite **** in adolescence. Strong containment would be counterproductive. Yan Xi hopes that An Zhi can grow up cheerfully and lively.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said: "Actually, it's better for you to make more friends. After all, boys are not the same as girls, and they will have different perspectives. If you can play..."

"I can't play, I don't want to be his girlfriend!" An Zhi said sternly.

Yan Xi froze for a second, then burst out laughing.

An Zhi was full of anger: "Other families don't allow boys and girls to get too close, just you, just you... So you are such an adult!!"

Yan Xi was amused by her appearance, and waved her hand: "No, no, I'm not such an adult...Pfft...I just want you to make more friends..."

An Zhi looked at her with a bulging face.

Yan Xi blinked: "So this Chen Wei is chasing you?"

An Zhi knew that Yan Xi was teasing her at this time, and she was not used to this kind of conversation, but Yan Xi smiled at her very nicely.

"…"

Yan Xi stood up and sat next to her, "I said a few words to him just now, he doesn't look like a bad student... What do you think of others?"

An Zhi didn't like the topic they were discussing. I also don't like Yan Xi's interest in this topic.

"He's stupid and has bad grades..."

"..." Yan Xi almost laughed again, listening to her disgusting tone, almost exactly the same as her kindergarten and elementary school dislikes simple homework and the childishness of her classmates.

"But Yang Mengmeng thinks he's handsome, and he's on the school basketball team. He's pretty good, don't you think?"

An Zhi: "I don't think so."

Yan Xi asked with the attitude of wanting to understand her psychology: "Does Tao Tao like the one with better grades? The academic bully type?"

An Zhi: "…"

"…"

Yan Xi looked at An Zhi with his face wrinkled, obviously resisting the topic. She raised her hand and stopped: "Okay, I won't ask, I won't gossip."

An Zhi lowered his head, and his body language was still a low expression. Yan Xi thought about it and touched her shoulder: "Okay, if you don't like my aunt asking this, I won't ask it again, okay?"

"Actually... I haven't prepared for my family's Tao Tao to be pursued, but... you're so cute, I think I need to be mentally prepared earlier."

She approached her, talking. This is not their closest distance. An Zhi could smell the familiar scent on her body. After so many years, Yan

Xi's body wash and perfume have not changed, they are all gardenias. Anzhi also uses it, but it seems that the same fragrance will have different odors when used on different people's bodies. It quietly penetrates into the texture and is stained with a slight sweat, which makes the fragrance of this public unique.

She said she was cute.

It is obvious that adults praise children.

What else is there to be mentally prepared to be pursued by others.

An Zhi's mood suddenly turned cloudy. She lowered her head and bit her straw, drinking lemonade.

Yan Xi rolled his eyes indiscernibly: "By the way, I don't have any urgent work this month, so I can leave work early, so how about I pick you up from school?"

An Zhi suddenly raised his head: "Really?"

"Really. You should be able to take you to school in the morning. You don't have to ride your own bike."

"Ah! Mmmm! Hmmm!" An Zhi nodded, his smile widened.

Yan Xi felt a little sad in his heart.

Cherish this moment, Yan Xi, she is still clinging to you, she has just entered puberty, and she is not very rebellious. still need you.

Staring at her happy smile, Yan Xi also raised the corners of her lips happily. Unable to hold back, he reached out and pinched her face.

Smooth and tender, bouncy, and feels really good.

To be honest, although she is a lot taller, she is now a little girl, and her cuteness has not decreased.

Get used to this change as soon as possible. Words.

As an adult, Yan Xi told himself for the nth time in his heart. Stand up and prepare to end today's conversation.

"Auntie, what does it feel like to like someone?"

Yan Xi looked at her amusingly: "Didn't you say you don't like Chen Wei, don't you know what it means to like?"

"I know I don't like him, but I don't know what it means to like him?" An Zhi looked distressed as if she was facing a problem that she couldn't solve.

Yan Xi sat back again and said, "What is the expression of dislike?"

"I don't look forward to seeing him, I don't like talking to him, it's a little annoying..." An Zhi pouted childishly.

Poor student Chen Wei. Yan Xi silently gave him some wax in his heart. "Then I like it in turn." She laughed.

"But, but..." An Zhi wanted to express in confusion, "Me and Yang Mengmeng will do the same... We often chat and talk together, stay together..."

"That's different... You are just friendship. If it's love, you need something else..."

An Zhi turned her head to look at Yan Xi, as if her memory was triggered when she said this, Yan Xi looked away, the distance between the two was close, and An Zhi seemed to be able to sense the fluctuations in Yan Xi's thoughts at this time.

"What?" An Zhi asked.

Yan Xi took his eyes back, and at that moment he seemed to be pulling himself out of his memory. She smiled: "This should be discovered by yourself."

"Ah? Tell me!"

Yan Xi pinched her face lightly: "I can't give you any spoilers."

"You know what you don't like now, and maybe you'll understand when you're older."

An Zhi pinched her face and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Every time I say that I will understand when I grow up, in case, I don't understand!"

Yan Xi shook his head and smiled: "No, humans may not understand what love is about, but they will definitely know whether they like someone or not, because... that can't lie."

Yan Xi's tone was light, but there was a hint of An Zhi's incomprehension in it. An Zhi watched her take off her lipstick, but her lips were still rosy, and her slightly drooping eyelashes curled up.

An Zhigui asked, "Auntie, do you have someone you like?"

The surroundings were very quiet, and Yan Xi was stunned.

Then she said, "Yes..."

An Zhi's eyes widened, and her heart beat faster for unknown reasons.

Yan Xi said softly, "I have."

She didn't seem to want to talk more, An Zhi pursed her lips, not sure if she could continue to ask. But she was really curious.

Yan Xi raised his eyebrows: "What else do you want to ask?"

An Zhi was a little embarrassed, and unconsciously stirred the glass that only had ice cubes after drinking.

"What kind of person does Auntie like..." she asked in a low voice, bowing her head. My heart still didn't slow down, and I felt so nervous, inexplicably nervous.

She thought that Yan Xi would not answer.

"I like people who are sincere and gentle."

Yan Xi is really not used to discussing such topics with An Zhi, especially her inner emotional world. But she always couldn't refuse An Zhi, so after thinking for a while, she gave her such an answer.

She really likes people who are sincere and gentle, while the world is restless, but such souls are rare. It seems that the young and passionate love has passed, and she has never met anyone who can stop her.

After Yan Xi went upstairs, An Zhi was washing cups in the kitchen. Transparent water poured down from her fingers, she looked out the window, the lights of the community were dim.

The heart that hopes to grow is hard to suppress.
