MTL - Peach and Plum Do Not Speak (The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms)-Chapter 5

In Beicheng at the end of September, the wind is blowing. In the streets and alleys, on and off the overpass, and at the intersection of bus and subway, you can see the fluttering yellow leaves, and occasionally there are flowers that have not withered in late summer. .

Yan Xi received a call from Liu Yiyi, a junior and best friend, during the rush hour after get off work on Friday. Ask her to climb the mountain and enjoy the maple leaves tomorrow.

Yan Xi happened to stop at the traffic light intersection. Hearing this, he smiled. Seeing the big maple leaves since he was a child, he still has to take the time when the weekend is the most crowded? Apparently drunk.

She said: "If you have something to say, let it go. I only have one day off on weekends, and I don't want to go out."

Liu Yiyi smiled and said, "Hey, didn't I miss you? How is your internship? If you turn regular, will I be able to see you on TV in the future?"

Yan Xi: "Early, the eight characters haven't been written yet."

Liu Yiyi: "I have confidence in you anyway, and I will absolutely support you. It's you, don't broadcast news, you are old-fashioned, the content is boring, and no one pays attention to what you wear. After half an hour, I just remember the phrase "audience" good evening friends..."

Yan Xi: "...Do you have any misunderstandings about the TV media industry? Can't anyone just broadcast the news?"

Liu Yiyi laughed so hard over there that the branches trembled.

Yan Xi smiled and said, "I'm an intern right now, and I don't have a fixed position."

She drove past the traffic light intersection and glanced at her watch. Just a quarter of an hour past five.

Liu Yiyi said, "Why is it so hard to do an internship? Let your eldest brother say hello to the leaders in your stage. You can enter whatever department you want, and go to whatever channel you want..."

Yan Xi interrupted her: "My eldest brother will not allow me to do this. Besides, I want to work **** my own. If I stay, I will work.

Liu Yiyi said: "...Well, you've already thought about it..."

Yan Xi: "Just say what you want to say. Don't beat around the bush."

Only then did Liu Yiyi tell the truth: "Okay, it's Gao Jiming."

Yan Xi slowed down, the traffic in front began to congested, and there was a taxi in front of her. She was driving a Chopster. She controlled her speed a little bit slower, and smelled a faint citrus fragrance in the car. Then she said, "What happened to him?"

"Are you really going to break up with him?"

Yan Xi: "He decided to go abroad, and I stay at home, so that we can get together and break up peacefully."

Gao Jiming is her classmate. When we first met, he was a sophomore, and she was a sophomore.

Beicheng University campus has the most suitable scenery for young people to fall in love. The flower path in the morning in spring, the deep blue lake in the afternoon in summer, the osmanthus rustling in autumn, the library in winter. Together they have witnessed, marveled, and enjoyed it. They really fell in love with each other for two years.

"I'm not afraid that you will regret it... Gao Jiming, the top student among the top students in your school, and... You are really suitable, and you have never quarreled. It's a pity to break up like this."

Before hanging up the phone, Liu Yiyi said: "He's in Seattle, you know? He said that you didn't answer the phone several times. Then he called me frantically... I'm in London, okay? Jet lag, jet lag, it's not a good jet lag anymore. beat!"

"Anyway, I brought the words to you, you decide."

Yan Xi did not express her position. After a congested section, the road began to clear. She stepped on the accelerator and accelerated.

It's good to get together and good to go, she thinks so. And she sent Gao Jiming to the airport.

The airport is crowded with tourists and noisy. Gao Jiming is tall and thin, wearing a long khaki trench coat, gentle, and very eye-catching in the crowd.

He said, "Do you have to separate?"

Yan Xi smiled and said, "I can have a long-distance relationship, and you will definitely say that you can, but we all know that you can't hold on."

Beicheng University is one of the top ten institutions of higher learning in the country, and Gao Jiming's programming major is one of the best in the country.

Gao Jiming said: "Yanxi, it's not fair for you to say that, but I worked hard to catch you. I still want to be with you."

He has a pair of unsharp eyes, and just looking at people normally can make him feel a kind of focus and affection wherever he looks. This is his trump card, the most attractive place for women. Even if he already has a girlfriend, someone will confess to him in front of her.

She didn't mind in the past, but that doesn't mean she never mind.

Yan Xi shook his head and patted him on the shoulder: "The things I have decided will not change, you know, we are separated now, there will be no grudges, and we will meet again in many years."

She rolled down the car window and blew a little wind, stopping her memory. Once she made up her mind, she was reluctant to sway. Yan Xi has a strong intuition about choices in life.

For example, she chose journalism as her first major and Chinese as her second major. For example, she chose photography as her hobby instead of her career. Many suitors accepted Gao Jiming, and now they chose to break up with him.

She relies on intuition and doesn't give herself a chance to regret. Once decided, do your best. Then listen to destiny.

Liu Yiyi said that she was too rational, and other things were left alone. How could feelings be so rational? It's not tap water, it's on when you say it is on, and it's off when you say it's off.

"I've seen you and Gao Jiming together, no one will doubt that you don't love each other. Wouldn't you be sad to be separated from him?"

Are you sad? Of course she would be sad. After all, it is the first love, and I was happy because of love, hurt because of love, worry about gain and loss, toss and turn. Love or not love, sometimes it is very strange and only a momentary thing, she decided to let go and forget it. She didn't want to spend any more time thinking about it. Besides, work is really busy.

Yan Xi looked at his watch, it was already six o'clock. The sky was low, and the clouds were tinged with orange. There was another traffic light, a Cadillac stopped next to it, and a little kindergarten girl in the co-pilot was chatting: "Dad... The pizza just now was delicious. Let's play outside for a while... Don't go home so soon."

"Baby, it's been over an hour, we have to go home soon..."

Tao Anzhi's face suddenly flashed before Yan Xi's eyes.

A month later, Tao Zhenzhen has gone abroad. I wonder how the young girl is doing now?

Yan Xi still remembered that look back then.

The wind was gentle, the autumn leaves were flying, the little girl, her hair was ruffled, her bud-like face, and her eyes were full of water. Far away, under the reflection of the light, there seems to be a shimmer on the lower eyelid, like teardrops.

Yan Xi felt ups and downs in her heart. It could be filmed. It should be a good work, but she didn't. Not because she didn't have a camera at the time, but because she couldn't.

That day, for some reason, she asked Tao Zhenzhen for Chen Muqi's phone number. A few days later, she called to inquire about Tao Anzhi's situation. Chen Muqi thought she was asking for Tao Zhenzhen, and casually said that she went to kindergarten, otherwise what else could she do?

Yan Xi did not deny it, but also asked which kindergarten? There was a woman laughing on Chen Muqi's phone, and he thought about it for a long time before saying his name.

The kindergarten happens to be near here, but it should be closed by this time.

Yan Xi hesitated for a moment, then turned the steering wheel and drove towards.

She found the address of the kindergarten with the navigation system, her eyes wandered in a circle, and she froze in the air.

After six o'clock, the kindergarten had already finished get off work, the doors were closed, and a small figure sat beside the flower bed at the door, as well as the familiar rabbit schoolbag.

At dusk, the sky was getting shorter and shorter, and the little figure was wearing thin clothes, curled up under the evening wind, staring at the ground.

Like an unclaimed critter.

Yan Xi's heart tightened, and it was another scene that could be drawn into the picture. Yet she still...

She opened the door and walked towards her.

At this time, an uncle who looked like a security guard took a step ahead of her and said to the little figure, "Son, it's six o'clock, is there no one to pick you up today?"

The little figure did not move.

The uncle sighed: "Good boy, go back quickly, I will give you a ride..."

Tao Anzhi nodded, turned his face and smiled at him, his eyes meeting Yan Xi.

She was stunned. wide-eyed

Yan Xi slightly raised the corner of his lips and walked up to her.

"Are you here to pick her up? Great, the child has been waiting for more than an hour...hey..." The uncle finally left at ease.

"Remember me?" Yan Xi swept the ground and found that "H(1)He(2)Li(3)Be(4)B(5)C(6)N(7) was written in white chalk on the ground. …”

Is this the English alphabet? no, no...

Yan Xi was surprised to find that this is the abbreviation for the first few elements of the periodic table. Is this what she wrote?

"I remember you... your name is yanxi." The little girl's milky voice.

The smile deepened on Yan Xi's face, and he looked at her with interest.

After An Zhi said it, she realized that it was impolite to call the grown-up by her name, so she added three words: "...big sister."

Yanxi...big sister?

This generation... Yan Xi strokes the forehead. If her mother is not her classmate, then the title "sister" is also correct.

Well, just remember.

She hesitated for a few seconds, but did not ask "why no one came to pick you up", and the answer is not difficult to guess.

So she asked, "Are you hungry? Shall I take you to eat?"

Yan Xi led An Zhi into the door of KFC, only to realize later that this unhealthy fried food should not be suitable for children. After giving ice to a young child who had not changed their teeth last time, she wanted to take her to eat something healthy just now.

Just because she asked one more question in the car: "Is there anything you want to eat?"

Tao Anzhi's finger: Grandpa Bai.

Yan Xi looked in the direction she pointed, not far away, the white-haired and white-bearded grandfather of KFC smiled kindly.

All right…

"I'm going to order, sit down and wait for me." Yan Xi finished talking to her and went to line up.

Tao Anzhi pressed his grunting stomach, nodded his head, and sat down obediently. KFC is the peak time for dinner, the crowd is large and a little noisy. There are couples, there are families, and there are also a few single people eating.

Tao Anzhi was very happy, she looked at the back of Yan Xi lining up, slender and tall, she was wearing a gray-blue shirt and jeans. Thin waist, long legs.

An Zhi used his poor vocabulary to describe her with difficulty, only to think that she was very good-looking. Looking around at the people dining around, no one looks better than her.

Yan Xi finished her meal, took her to wash her hands, and took her seat.

She ordered a children's meal A meal, mashed potatoes, egg tarts, small French fries, and a small cup of Jiuzhen juice, and also brought her a set of toys. I ordered a burger set myself.

When An Zhi saw the toy, he couldn't even care that he was hungry, and his eyes lit up. Yan Xi helped her open it.

The little white rabbit has a small blush on each cheek, holds a drum, presses it, and the left and right paws begin to beat.

An Zhi's little face was glowing red from the light, she moved excitedly on the chair, she couldn't believe it: "Is it for me?"

Yan Xi looked at her with a smile, "Of course it's for you, are you a rabbit?"

An Zhi held the rabbit in both hands, the dimple on the right cheek was deep, and her round black eyes curled up: "Yeah!"
