Love for a limited time

Chapter 39
Li Zhibin and Song Junxi sent me to the location of the bus stop, and I walked back by myself.

I went back with the book bag and handed the book for Song Junxi to Aunt Yao. During dinner, I heard from her that Song Junxi went to Li Zhibin's house at night and didn't come back. He might play there for a few days.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. My mother and I were in the kitchen preparing the evening dishes and making dumplings. I didn't make them very well, so I just rolled the skins for my mother. Uncle Song was rarely at home that night.There are not many people in the family, and our family also sat down.

Song Junxi was sitting opposite me, and he was not enthusiastic. I didn't know what was wrong with him, so I didn't dare to speak to him.

Keeping his head down all the time, only occasionally eating the food in front of him.

Seeing me like this, Aunt Yao smiled and picked up some food for me: "Xia Xia, don't be restrained, it's time to grow your body, you should eat more!"

"Thank you, Aunt Yao!"

I saw Aunt Yao quietly touched Song Junxi with her arm.

Halfway through the New Year's dinner, Uncle Song answered the phone and wanted to go out. Aunt Yao asked, "Where are you going for the New Year's Eve?"

Uncle Song didn't come home very often, and it was rare for the family to go out for a meal at this time. Naturally, Aunt Yao refused, and the atmosphere became a little tense.

"A friend drank too much, I'll take him back!" Uncle Song said and put on his coat.

"What friend insists on you to give it to me!" Aunt Yao put down her chopsticks and complained.

"A customer, you eat first, I'll be back in a while!" Uncle Song still went out, and Aunt Yao's face was obviously unhappy. The New Year's Eve dinner seemed a little unhappy because of Uncle Song's sudden departure. .

My dad also went back to rest after Uncle Song left.

My mother was supposed to clean up the table, but Aunt Yao asked her to stop cleaning it up and sit with her for a while, of course my mother would not refuse.

Aunt Yao took a bottle of wine and asked my mother, "Drink with me!"

My mother nodded and motioned for me to go to the kitchen to get another cup.

I ran quickly, took all the unfinished dishes on the table to the kitchen, and wiped the table with a rag.

When the adults talk, the children naturally go on the sidelines. We have a custom that young people can’t go to bed early on New Year’s Eve and have to watch for their parents. I also felt that the room was a bit boring, so I went out to relax in the yard.

The Song family’s yard is not that big (it’s not the super-rich type that everyone imagined). I sat down on the grass in front of it. The weather tonight is fine, not very cold.

After a while I felt someone sitting next to me.

Turning his head to look, it was Song Junxi: "Why did you come out?" He also went upstairs when Uncle Song went out just now.

"Come out to get some air, it's too stuffy at home!" Song Junxi sighed.

"What's wrong with you!" Sensitively, I felt that there must be something unhappy about him.

"It's nothing!" Song Junxi was sitting next to me, and neither of us spoke. In fact, no matter whether we were at school or at Song's house, we rarely talked, and neither of us talked a lot.

When we walked into the room, Aunt Yao was already a little drunk, and she was clamoring to continue drinking. Mom, Song Junxi, and I worked hard to settle Aunt Yao. It was exactly twelve o'clock at that time, It's all firecrackers, and the sky in the dark night is instantly lit up by fireworks, which is very beautiful.

My mother felt a little uncomfortable after drinking, so I asked my mother to go to bed first, and I probably cleaned up those wine glasses, just as Song Junxi came down from upstairs.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" When he went downstairs, he happened to see me lying there wiping the wine stains on the floor.

"Sleep right now!" I'm afraid that these things will stand on the floor tomorrow, and it will be even more difficult for Mom to clean.

"Go to sleep! It's getting late!" I looked up at the clock, and sure enough, it was almost a little sooner!

On the morning of the first day of the new year, I woke up very late. When I woke up, my mother was no longer in the room. I checked the time and it was almost nine o'clock.

He quickly changed his clothes, left the room after washing, and helped his mother prepare the lunch at noon.

When I came out, Uncle Song was sitting in the living room, he was rarely at home, so I stopped to say hello before entering the kitchen.

Song Junxi probably just woke up, went to the kitchen to get bread and milk, and gave me a meaningful look when he went out, I think he must have called me.

Then he said to his mother, "I'll go upstairs to see if Auntie Yao is awake!"

"Alright, when I went up in the morning, she wasn't awake yet!"

I just went up to the second floor when I found Song Junxi standing at the stairs, as if waiting for me.

"You're not stupid this time!" He laughed at me.

"How can I be so stupid? By the way, is Aunt Yao awake?" I glanced at Aunt Yao's room.

"Wake up, I brought breakfast to her room!" Song Junxi said, and I noticed that there was no plate in his hand.

"What do you do?" I also brought breakfast when I came up.

"Of course we can't waste it!" Song Junxi took my plate: "Come to my room and talk!"

"Is Li Zhibin coming this afternoon?"

"Ah!" I gasped in surprise, not because I was afraid that she would know my identity but because Li Zhibin was talking nonsense. If my mother and Aunt Yao heard something, I would really die of shame.

"Are you afraid?" Song Junxi asked with a smile, I always felt treacherous.

But how can I manage so much, I nodded quickly.

"Would you like me to help you!" A cunning flashed in Song Junxi's eyes.

"Will you help me?" I looked at him pitifully.

"Then you have to promise me one thing!"
