Buddhist small green plum

Chapter 85

In the afternoon, Xie Ying'an was dragged out by Li Qingmo.

When the two of them didn't come back at 05:30 in the evening, Qingran took the cat food and went out. She hadn't fed the cat for a long time.

Maybe she was afraid of thinking of Ji Yanchen emotionally, or maybe she wanted to remember the momentary heartbeat in her heart, so she still found time to come here on the last day of self-study in the evening.

The stray cats survived the severe winter, and at the beginning of the competition, they were all fattened up by Aunt Liu.

Qingran doesn't know how long the cat's memory is, but obviously these stray cats were a little timid when they first saw her.

It took a while to get around. The arrival of summer made the branches of the old tree more dense. Qingran stood up and looked up at the old tree.

The scene of the boy in black jumping down from the tree seems to be still yesterday.

Today, there is no more black shirt under the dense leaves.

The sun was setting, and a few stray cats who were full did not rush away, rolling on the ground that was warmed by the sun.

Qingran couldn't figure out whether the palpitation caused by the momentary trance was an illusion. People are always keen to like beautiful things.

Ji Yanchen is not stained by the dust of the world, his personality is as clean as a piece of white paper, his feelings are undoubtedly pure, liking is liking, without any impurities.

Qingran knows that she is different from him. The relationship she hopes is proportional to the effort and gain. The rest of her life is long. How long can pure love last?
Therefore, the sprout of youthful looks and talent was broken by her own hands as soon as it showed its sharp corners, and she plunged into study without even a pity.

Qingran bent down to pick up the small plate on the ground, and when she looked up again, she saw Ji He striding towards this side.

Qing Ran hasn't seen Ji He for a long time since the news was sent that day. The college entrance examination is coming soon, and the third year of high school is more difficult than the second year of high school. At this time, Ji He and the others spend most of their time studying.

Ji He has long legs and walks fast, he greeted Qing Ran from a distance: "Senior Qing Ran."

Qingran waited for him at the same spot, and only returned when he approached: "Senior Ji He, long time no see."

"It's been a long time, it's been more than a month." Ji He smiled lightly, and said again: "Ji Shen has also left for more than a month, time flies so fast."

Qingran was startled.

I heard Ji He say again: "Do you have time? I suddenly want to find someone to tell a stinky, long and clichéd story."

Qingran knew that this story must be inseparable from Ji Yanchen, she looked down at the cat food in her hand, and after a long time, she responded softly.

There are wooden chairs and stone benches for people to rest everywhere.

Qingran and Ji He sat on a bench, it was nearly six o'clock in April and it was still dark.

Looking at the frolicking crowd in the distance, Ji He didn't seem to know what to say. He took a long breath, turned his head and asked Qingran: "Do you remember the last time we had dinner together?"

Qingran nodded.

Ji He looked into the distance with distant eyes, and his voice was hollow: "Maybe you didn't pay attention last time, Xie Ying'an exposed my scar before leaving..."

Qingran frowned and recalled the scene that day, what did Xie Yingan say to Ji He before leaving?
It's been so long that she can't remember.

Ji He smiled wryly: "He said, he invited that meal, and this is my scar."

Qingran didn't understand, how could such a nice sentence become his scar?
The setting sun had already sunk into the sea, Ji He said slowly: "I will always remember when I was 12 years old, I was just in the first grade of junior high school, my dad's company had a problem with its operation, and our family went bankrupt that year."

Ji He lowered his head slightly, and his eyes were slightly closed to cover all the emotions in them, as if to show that he didn't care, he wanted to pull out a smile.

It is conceivable that the smile was bitter and ugly.

"It's ashamed to say that I have been pampered and pampered since I was a child. The people who couldn't bear the drastic changes in my family were my mother and the other was me. Because the family had no money, my mother could not afford me to go to school at one time. I couldn’t even get the money out, and I couldn’t see my mother’s tears, so I chose to stay in school. My dad was so busy at that time that he hardly had time to go home.”

"There was no food at school, so I drank water desperately, and slowly starving became a habit. In fact, this is nothing. What is really sad is that my friend who used to play very well with me, in At times like this, people are falling into trouble."

"It's been so long that I can't remember exactly how they treated me. There are only a few particularly bad deeds that I still remember."

"One of them is that they took me to a restaurant for dinner. I was too young to maliciously guess people's hearts. I just thought it was because I had invited them to dinner before, and they felt sorry for me because I couldn't eat. I, to be honest, I was so moved that I almost cried."

This time Ji He laughed out loud.

Qingran pursed her lips, not knowing how to comfort him, but fortunately Ji He didn't need her comfort either.

As he said earlier, the story he was going to tell was really long and clichéd, he went on.

"That meal was the fullest and most satisfying meal I ate two months after my family went bankrupt. I even thought about packing the leftovers on the table and taking them back to my mother. It was also when I was almost full At that time, those few people suddenly used excuses to go to the bathroom, excuses to go to the waiter, anyway, one of them made an excuse and went out, just like that, I didn’t see anything unusual until the waiter came over and asked me how to pay the bill.”

"That day I stayed in that small restaurant until after eleven o'clock in the evening. I cried all the tears in my life. No one knew the feeling of helplessness in my heart and wishing to disappear where I was. After paying the bill, take me back."

"After that day, I didn't go to school anymore. I locked myself in the room and didn't want to go out for many days. My dad told me more than once with red eyes that I'm a boy. If I can't even bear this little thing, How will we face bigger storms in the future?"

Ji He raised his head, paused for a long time, and his eyes slowly returned to normal: "Fortunately, after half a month, I walked out of that shadow by myself. I can also study as if I ignored it in school like before, but I'll never have anything to do with that group of people again."

"In those few years when my family was defeated, I gradually got used to being hungry, and sometimes I didn't know how to drink water as a meal."

Ji He looked sideways at Qingran, and this time he smiled sincerely: "Senior Qingran, I met Ji Yanchen at that time, his talent and intelligence hadn't been revealed at that time, and in the eyes of teachers and classmates Li is a different kind, and he and I are at the same table, but the two of us have hardly spoken, and the two of us are the quietest existence in the corner of the class."

"On the ninth day when we were at the same table, during the lunch break, some classmates at the front and back tables ate in front of me viciously, and even chewed. I ignored them, but Ji Yanchen, who had been immersed in his own world , raised his eyes and looked at them lightly, and then he looked at me again."

"After that, Ji Yanchen threw me a card without saying anything. At that time, I was full of malice towards the world, and it was impossible to accept other people's things at will. I threw that card back to him."

"He looked at the card and then at me, as if he couldn't figure out why? I didn't even remember how I accepted the card afterwards?"

"Sister Qingran, do you know how much money is in the card that 12-year-old Ji Yanchen gave me for dinner?"
