She is cute and has a thousand layers of routines

After eating, Chen Jiayu started to clean up the mess, and Cai Jiayi was not so sleepy after sleeping for several hours. After thinking for a while, she decided to go to the living room to watch TV.

"What's in this bag?"

As soon as she arrived at the living room, her eyes fell on the small gift bag on the coffee table, and she asked curiously.

Chen Jiayu came out, glanced at it, and replied without any change in expression: "It's nothing, it's a gift for someone."

"You said you were outside, did you just go to buy gifts for others?" Cai Jiayi took out the shopping invoice from the paper bag, "Sile Sijizhi, Xuechun... oh, it's a pen, I know this one, it's pretty good." Suitable for girls."

She glanced at the price again: "More than 500 yuan for a pen is really not a small number for ordinary students—Student Chen Jiayu, you are so generous, and I don't know which lucky person can get such a good price." The gift...well, I guess, it should be Shen Nianchu's classmate."

"..."

Her tone was obviously very careless and breezy, but Chen Jiayu could hear a certain sour smell from it.

Chen Jiayu asked back, "Are you jealous?"

She put the paper bag back to its original place with a full smile, "No, I'll just say it casually, so I won't be jealous."

Chen Jiayu: "Well, that's good."

I silently added a sentence in my heart: It's strange.

After a while, she asked nonchalantly, "Why did you buy her a gift?"

Chen Jiayu hesitated for a while, and in the end, she told about Shen Nianchu's invitation to celebrate his birthday with him today.However, he did not deliberately emphasize it twice, emphasizing that Shen Nianchu did not invite him alone, but also had other friends.

"So that's how it is..." Little Green Tea opened her eyes and bit her lips lightly, the guilt in her expression was so strong that it almost turned into substance, "Then it's so late now, you probably won't be able to go to the appointment, right?"

Chen Jiayu said "Yes." "I called her before and told her I couldn't go."

"Well, if it weren't for my illness, you wouldn't miss her birthday party. You must be feeling very uncomfortable right now?"

She lowered her head, and there was a faint glimmer of water in her eyes.

"It's all my fault. When it's not good to be sick, I chose this time..."

Chen Jiayu, "..."

He couldn't bear it and said: "Don't think I don't know, you are already laughing in your heart."

The water color in her eyes faded away: "You really understand me."

"..."

The topic of gifts ended here, and Chen Jiayu went to make her another cold medicine.

After pinching her nose and drinking, Cai Jiayi leaned forward, put the cup on the coffee table, and at the same time reached out to take the remote control next to her: "Let's watch TV together for a while."

"You wait." Chen Jiayu did not go over immediately, but went back to her bedroom first, and hugged the quilt, "You look under the quilt, the living room is rather cold, and it will be troublesome to catch the cold later. "

"Okay." Cai Jiayi smiled again, "You are really thoughtful."

After she finished covering her with the quilt, Chen Jiayu walked over to her and sat down.

She asked, "Look at what?"

"I don't care, you can watch whatever you like."

"How about a variety show?"

"Ah."

Cai Jiayi pressed the remote control for a long time, and finally got tired of pressing it, but she didn't choose anything, she just leaned against Chen Jiayu and said, "Suddenly I don't want to watch TV anymore, let's chat for a while. "

"Chat? Talk about what?"

"Anything is fine." She thought for a while, "Why don't you talk to me about your childhood."

"I was nothing special when I was young, just an ordinary kid."

"That's okay, I just like listening to ordinary children's stories... By the way, what was the happiest thing when you were a child?"

Chen Jiayu was silent for a while, and her eyes fell on a variety show on TV.

It was a parent-child variety show called "Dad Is Back".

He lowered his eyes and suddenly thought of some past events.

Something that's been around for a long time.

"It's fun for me, it might be boring for you, do you want to know too?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Jiayu asked.

"I think." She nodded and said with certainty.

For the person I like, there is nothing boring, no matter how boring it is, I will like to listen to it.

"Okay then... let me tell you."

Chen Jiayu slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on the white ceiling, lost in memory.

"I don't remember much about my childhood, but what is certain is that I was very happy at that time."

"My dad was a long-distance truck driver. At that time, long-distance running was still very profitable, and he was very diligent, so when I was six years old, our family bought the current apartment."

"Although my dad can't go home five or six days a week because of work, he treats my mom, me and my sister very well, and brings us gifts every time he comes back from a long run."

"Well, that was the happiest thing for me when I was a child. As long as my father comes home, I can see my father and get gifts."

Cai Jiayi leaned against him, listening carefully.

Chen Jiayu glanced at her, his gaze just met her gaze at him,

This gaze made him unable to describe it accurately.

Quiet, focused, gentle...

It is like a calm sea, calm and gentle, but it hides the power that can accommodate and smooth everything.

Being watched by her eyes like this, Chen Jiayu couldn't help but continue to recall.

"I always feel that I am a happy child. Although my family is not very rich, my parents love me and my sister very much."

"Every time my father came back from the car, he would rest at home for a day. At that time, my parents would take me and my sister to a nearby park to play. I remember that park very clearly. There was a very tall stone sculpture. My favorite Dad picked me up, put me on top of the stone sculpture, and said triumphantly, "Dad, look, I'm taller than you!"

Having said that, Chen Jiayu's eyes flashed with reminiscence, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

Although he was still very young at that time, he didn't know that this was "happiness", he just felt very happy.

But now, in retrospect, he already understood.

This is happiness.

Chen Jiayu's definition of happiness has always been simple.

He never felt that he had to be successful with a net worth of tens of billions or more than [-] to be considered happiness.

For him, a hug full of love, a simple but warm dinner, and a little warmth that emerges in his heart when he recalls it are enough to be considered happiness.

It was almost seven o'clock at this time, the night outside the window was slowly sinking, the lights in the city were lit up, and the moon was climbing up from the skyline little by little.The whole living room was shrouded in silence, only Chen Jiayu's soft words remained.Cai Jiayi was beside him, listening quietly without saying a word.

"Of course, I also have less pleasant memories of my childhood."

Chen Jiayu didn't know what to think, and laughed.

"Actually, I was quite naughty when I was a child. I often bullied my sister and made my mother angry. I especially liked to go out and play like crazy."

"I remember when I was in elementary school, once, my friend and I made an appointment to go to the river to play, um, it was the river we went to."

"My dad was at home at the time, and my mom told me not to play too late, let alone play in the water. I agreed and ran out."

"After all, I was still a child at the time. As soon as I started playing, I forgot all my mother's instructions. At that time, we were catching frogs and touching screws by the river. As a result, I stepped on the moss on the stone and accidentally slipped my foot. It fell into the water."

"Ah?" Hearing what he said, Cai Jiayi let out a subconscious exclamation.

Although Chen Jiayu was sitting next to her right now, and it was obvious that the final outcome must be safe and sound, but Cai Jiayi's heart still couldn't help tightening, and she asked, "What happened later? gone?"

"Fortunately, the water where I fell was not deep." Chen Jiayu said, "It only submerged to my chest, and I slowly climbed up by myself."

She breathed a sigh of relief: "Great."

"However, my clothes were all wet by water, so I dare not go home, for fear that my father will beat me." Chen Jiayu curled the corners of her mouth, lost in memory, "My father is usually very kind to me, but he is also very strict, and loses his temper. Come to really spank my ass."

"Then what do you do after that?" She asked curiously.

"I just wandered outside, wandering around, wanting to wait for the clothes to dry before going back, and before I knew it, I wandered very late."

"After returning home, my dad lost his temper when he saw me, and beat me very hard. I cried miserably and kept screaming for pain."

"I thought my father hit me because he saw that my clothes were wet, but he also cried while beating me."

"That was the first time I saw my father cry."

"He said, do you know that your classmate came to our house and said that you fell into the water. Your mother and I were frightened. We ran to the river to look for you, but we couldn't find it. We thought you had fallen into the water. What's the matter, your mother is still looking for you by the river, you brat, I really want to kill you!"

Having said that, Chen Jiayu paused.

When he was a child, he still couldn't comprehend his father's feelings.It wasn't until he grew up that he experienced it himself, and then he understood the heart-pounding pain of losing a loved one.

After being quiet for a while, he continued, "After the beating, my dad applied medicine on me, took me with one hand, and hugged my sister with the other, and went to the river to find my mother together. Limp along."

After hearing this story, Cai Jiayi wanted to laugh, but her eyes were slightly moist.

She whispered, "It can be seen that your parents really love you."

"Yeah." Chen Jiayu nodded.

He once heard someone say that the more hard a parent hits their child, the more their heart hurts.

He didn't know if all parents were like this, but he thought that the pain in his father's heart at that time should be greater than the pain in his flesh and blood.

"That time, it was the first time I really felt that my dad loves me so much."
