I heard that the moonlight found the ocean

Chapter 3 Confrontation
The summer in Encheng is very long, and the ultraviolet rays are particularly strong. Everyone in Encheng wears thick sunscreen on their faces.

Whenever this time comes, Liang Yi always envies her: "Su Mei, why don't you tan?"

Liang Yi is her good friend, and the two families are only separated by a road.The locals call that road the Road of the Rich and the Poor, separating the rich and the poor.On the other side of the road is flat land, where you can only grow vegetables or fruits. Liang Yi's family grows tropical fruits and sells them as a business for tourists from other places.On the other hand, the people on the side of the road rely on the sea, and at first they could only make a living by fishing, living in poverty.As soon as Keen City was developed, he started a seafood business, and gradually became rich across the road.

Although the disparity between rich and poor has widened, her friendship with Liang Yi has always existed.In the eyes of outsiders, they are just two crazy girls who have just grown up, who like to run crazily on the road wearing gorgeous skirts and high heels.In fact, every girl has done this crazy thing, trying to hide her breasts as soon as they sprouted, and just reaching the age of adulthood, and she has to wear high heels and skirts like adults.Those shoes made their feet blistered, and they sat cross-legged on the road, the cement road under their skirts kissing their thighs, Liang Yi elbowed her: "Hey, I heard that your family is coming A little worker."

"How did you know?"

"I saw that day that he moved a lot of internal organs of sea fish to feed stray cats here, and his back looks good."

He looks good, and she immediately thought of that fake tracksuit. She suppressed a smile and shook her hands in front of Liang Yi's eyes a few times: "This doctor tells you that your myopia is getting worse and worse. Serious enough to see a cow as a sika deer. Let me tell you, not all boys are good-looking, and not all animals with horns are beautiful sika deer."

Before she could finish her conclusion, something hit her leg, and she screamed and jumped up in fright.It was a wounded cat. It crawled over at some point, tilted its head and licked her leg, and couldn't be scared away.

Liang Yi gloated: "Su Mei, it must have smelled the fishy smell on your body, otherwise it will lick you as soon as it comes, and it won't be able to drive you away."

Su Mei hates cats the most, especially this kind of stray cats without a tutor. However, there are many marine products in Encheng. Because marine fish have a lot of internal organs, these cats reproduce very fast and are very courageous. She waved it in disgust. Hands: "Get it away."

However, Liang Yi was used to seeing her arrogant and self-indulgent appearance, and seeing her suddenly lose control and make a lot of ugly appearances, she was so happy that she stood where she was and burst into laughter.

When Su Mei was at her wit's end, a man walked up the road, and she recognized Lu Haiyang from a long distance away.Except for his long hands and long legs, the port workers are all a little fat, and they all walk like brown bears.Compared with the group of brown bears, she can always recognize Lu Haiyang quickly: "Lu Haiyang, come and help me get rid of this cat."

Lu Haiyang walked over slowly as usual, he squatted down, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the cat jumped onto his hand.He carefully hugged the little pure white creature, and put it close to his chest, the movement was done in one go.

"So handsome." Liang Yi approached her and whispered.

Su Mei frowned. In her opinion, Lu Haiyang is just a goose who doesn't know how to resist. Can such a person be called handsome?
"Don't you think he is different from the boy in Encheng?"

It was only then that she noticed that Lu Haiyang, who had been eating seafood for several months, was suddenly no longer thin. The always low-browed Lu Haiyang seemed to have really changed, as if he was really different from the boys in Encheng.Encheng is close to the sea, so the seasons are not particularly distinct throughout the year. The long summer and ultraviolet rays make the boys here very tanned, and the land and sea that migrated from the inland look much whiter.And he has a pair of very bright eyes, black and deep like fake.In addition, he is still very tall. He used to think that he was malnourished, but he didn't expect that his body, which was no longer thin, would be so handsome in just a few months.

It turns out that boys, like girls, are like seeds in the soil, and there are such big changes from the beginning of growth.

Su Mei stared blankly at Lu Haiyang, who was still squatting there teasing the cat.He pointed his finger at the tip of its nose and laughed softly.She didn't expect him to smile at a cat, and it seemed that he had never smiled at her after knowing him for so long.

Just when she was stunned, he suddenly turned his head, and with a faint smile that caught her off guard, he said hesitantly, "Do you want to come over and give me a hug?"

Then he handed over the injured cat.

She patted it off with one hand in disgust, and said while stepping back, "Don't come over."

He froze for a moment, quickly withdrew his hand, didn't say anything, but walked to the other side of the road with the cat.He walked a long way and suddenly turned around.

She remembered those eyes, he was standing more than ten meters away from her, staring at her, they were those eyes, dark, with inexplicable sensitivity hidden.

Su Mei suddenly understood his expression just now, he must have remembered her previous warning of "don't get close", but she really just disliked the cat just now, and didn't remember her previous warning.

Seeing that his back was straight, the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, unwilling to explain anything.

Seeing that her brows were wrinkled, Liang Yi hurriedly comforted her: "A cat won't scare you silly, right?"

Su Mei glared at her like a deflated ball.

Lu Haiyang temporarily lives in her family's old house. The old house was repaired by Su Qi'an when he first came to Encheng. It is low and close to the road, as if wearing a straw hat on the road.Later, Su Yuan'an made a fortune and built a small western-style building next to the old house.Because of nostalgia and superstition, the old house has not been demolished. When Lu Haiyang's family came to seek refuge, they gave it to the Lu family to live in.

The two houses are only separated by a wall, and Su Mei can see the panorama of Lu's house as soon as she stretches her head from her terrace.

Sometimes I see Lu Haiyang studying in the yard. He likes to walk around with his hands behind his back and speak soft and fine Mandarin.More often, he was feeding the cat, which was Lu Haiyang, who was so unfamiliar to her, and he often pointed the cat's nose with his fingers gently and joyfully.

It turns out that he is not without feelings, but his feelings are more inclined to small animals.

Su Mei felt that she hated that cat as much as she hated Lu Haiyang, and that cat was too ugly, every time it came out of the small building, it would squat at the door next door and bark its teeth and claws at her, even biting it on purpose once. her shoes.

She always wanted to take advantage of Lu Haiyang's unpreparedness to throw the cat into the sea.

Probably read her hatred, that cat is always cautious.That day, Lu Haiyang went to move the goods, and he lazily lay on the side of the road basking in the sun. Lu Haiyang put a cat bowl in front of him, which was filled with the internal organs of various sea fish.

The cat, who was already full of food, waited for Su Mei to approach, and turned over cleverly and stood up, and looked at Su Mei warily with cloudy eyes.

Su Mei just planned to go to the pier to play that day, and didn't think about throwing it into the sea. It was probably because of looking at it that it made her feel very uncomfortable.Almost without thinking, she kicked at its cat bowl, and the bowl spun around on the ground, and the old cat yelled at her aggrievedly.

"You ugly cat, only that idiot Lu Haiyang will feed you." She seemed to have become bolder suddenly, walked over and grabbed the cat by the neck, and lifted it above her head.

The old cat screamed exaggeratedly at the top of her head, and its two feet danced wildly. She found it funny and laughed loudly: "You know how to struggle to the death, and you still bark your teeth and claws at me." She stretched out her hand and held the old cat Shaking on the top of his head, "Aren't you afraid of falling to your death?"

The old cat let out a "meow" begging for mercy as if it had aura.

She found it more and more interesting, and deliberately turned its head to the ground: "I just want to throw you to death."

"Stop!" Just as Su Mei was laughing hilariously, a shout interrupted her pleasure.

That was probably the loudest cry Lu Haiyang had made in a long time, so she remembered it clearly.He pushed the door open at that time, his eyes were like a cluster of cool moonlight, and he said coolly, "Su Mei, don't go too far."

She was just about to explain that she really didn't intend to throw the cat to death just now, but she opened her mouth and said something that surprised even herself: "It's not your turn to say that I'm not going too far, I'm living under the fence of others, and I want to learn how to cut flesh Feed the eagle."

He reached out and grabbed her arm: "Give me back the cat."

She thrust the cat in his hand into his arms, and raised her proud neck: "What's so special about a broken cat, I'll give it back to you." She didn't relieve her anger, and when he was not prepared, she lowered her head angrily and found him arm, and bit down hard.

He didn't expect her to come up with this move, he was so cold that he was in pain, and he even smelled the blood from his wrist.Seeing her attitude of not letting go, he could only shake off his hand painfully.She smiled contemptuously and ran out.

On the other side of the road, she turned her head provocatively and smiled at him.He suddenly found that her provocative appearance did not look like an adult, she had a baby face with thick eyebrows and long eyelashes, and that face was covered with a layer of radiant charm, which made people feel confused.

Lu Haiyang, who was holding the cat, stood in place. He looked at the bleeding wound on his arm, and his heart was numb.

Not long after the cat joined the lives of Lu Haiyang and his father, a woman came to the Lu family. According to Su Yuan'an, it was Lu Haiyang's mother.Su Mei always felt that the woman was weird. Sometimes she embroidered in the yard with a pile of cloth, sometimes she picked up the leftover coconuts that others drank on the road, and sometimes she sat alone in the yard in a daze.

Later, the parents quarreled at home about the Lu family. Ye Meixiang said harshly, "You are kind enough to take in not only the father and son, but also a mental patient."

Su Mei heard the clue, it turns out that Lu Haiyang's mother is a mental patient.Knowing that there was a mental patient in the Lu family, Su Mei felt a little strange, and seemed to have some understanding of Lu Haiyang's reticence.She even thought that in the future, she shouldn't go too far with Lu Haiyang.But she is the kind of person who has been in power since she was a child, and the arrogance she has developed long ago can't be changed.

When she went to the port that day, she met her father, and he handed her a big envelope: "Su Mei, help Dad send the money to the hospital."

"Who's sick?" she asked curiously.

"Lu Haiyang's mother had a heart attack the morning before yesterday. The current hospital charges are really low, but your Uncle Lu owed thousands of medical expenses for two nights, and the hospital stopped the medicine if they didn't send it away." Su Yuanan anxiously Said, "I still have to catch a plane, honey, you run for Dad."

Although she didn't like the Lu family, it was a matter of life and death, so she patted her chest and agreed.

When she arrived at the entrance of the hospital, Lu Haiyang also came to the door with a lunch box: "Lu Haiyang, it's just right, take me to see your dad."

Su Mei followed him through the long corridor of the hospital, turned another corner, and arrived at the observation room of the hospital.At that time, his mother was lying on the bed with some instrument tubes inserted into her body, covered with a hospital quilt, her face was pale, even her lips were gray, and she was wrapped in those instruments.

Lu Haiyang stood outside the observation room, and the attending doctor was talking with his father.

"If you don't pay the money, you can only stop the medicine." The doctor shook his head and said.

"What will happen if you stop taking the medicine?" Lu Haiyang interrupted and asked, his tone full of fear and sadness.

"Heart failure can happen at any time."

Seeing that they were talking, Su Mei sat in the corridor boredly. After walking such a long distance, she was very thirsty, so she opened her mouth: "Lu Haiyang, I want a soda."

Su Mei's bright eyes did not see Lu Haiyang's hesitation at that time. The heat wave in the hospital was about to overwhelm her. She had traveled such a long way to pay for the medical bills, so what's wrong with asking for a glass of soda?
"This is a hospital, where's the soda?" Lu Haiyang's face suddenly turned red, and he replied viciously.

She stood there in astonishment, and after a while, she curled her lips: "You're still pissing me, you think I want to go to the hospital because it's so hot, it's not because my dad asked me to pay for the medical bills."

"Ocean, be obedient." Uncle Lu patted his son's head and tried to persuade him, "There is a supermarket outside the hospital, and there are soft drinks in the supermarket."

Lu Haiyang had a strange expression at the time, his lips were tightly pressed, his eyes were dim, and he didn't say a word. After a while, he clenched his fists and walked out of the hospital.

She smiled smugly, she knew that he dared not disobey her, and his mother's medical expenses were still in her pocket.

After a while, Lu Haiyang came back and handed her a can of Sprite: "The soda you want."

She heard dissatisfaction in his faint tone, and when she looked up, she saw the shallow folds between Lu Haiyang's eyebrows, and those folds seemed to be filled with disgust for her.

"This is not my favorite brand, I want to drink Fanta." She didn't answer, and looked up at Lu Haiyang, with such thin lines at the corners of her mouth.

With a sudden force on his hand, the bottle of soda burst, and his voice was very gloomy: "Su Mei, I'm not your servant."

Only then did she discover that he had very sharp edges and corners when he was angry, his short hair was like a hedgehog's thorns, his black eyebrows were raised, and the eyebrows were clustered, just like the annoyed fighting beast in the animal world.

But she was not afraid, she just stared at him, and said cruelly: "Why not, you are my servant, and your whole family is my servant."

People in the world are willing to pretend to be confused, and Lu Haiyang also knows how humble his family is, and it is because of these low self-esteem that Su Mei dares to look down on everything in front of them.All the secrets of forbearance were exposed in public like this, like being punched in the heart.He let go of the crushed soda can, and the can fell to the ground with a shattering sound, as if a rib had been pulled out, and the chest cavity was filled with unspeakable pain and soreness.

Seeing that he lost his ability to speak, she seemed to have won a battle. She was suddenly very proud, put on a leisurely look, and took out the big envelope from her pocket: "Here, here you are. The smell here is really bad, I'm leaving .”

Su Mei seemed to be very happy, she jumped downstairs.

The remaining Lu Haiyang stood there holding the wad of money, clenching his fists.

The summer vacation is coming to an end, Su Mei and Liang Yi are sad every day, and the beginning of school means that their good days are coming to an end.Speaking of the start of school, Su Mei's college entrance examination results have always been Su Yuan'an's heart disease, which can be described as horrible.Su Yuan'an looked at her grades and was angry and annoyed. She hadn't eaten a grain of rice for a whole day. Su Mei was frightened by this situation. She vowed to study hard during college and strive for the postgraduate entrance examination.

Su Yuan'an saw that she had such determination, so he took out several kinds of rare fish in his family's collection, and subsidized some school construction fees to choose a local university for her.

Thinking of the unknown university life and the promises she made, Su Mei was very troubled.Just as Su Mei and Liang Yi were sighing at the street, Lu Haiyang's mother was discharged from the hospital.

In order to thank Su Yuanan for his help, the Lu family specially invited the Su family to dinner.Su Mei's mother, Ye Meixiang, doesn't like her husband's poor fellow villagers. Although she can't stop her husband's behavior, she always has a grudge against the Lu family. Stay with her at home.

Su Yuan'an drank some wine at Lu's house. He lay on the small sofa of Lu's house. He found that various medals for landing in the ocean were displayed in the cabinet he used to store coral and pearls.Thinking of Su Mei's embarrassing results in the college entrance examination, he said sincerely: "I didn't expect Haiyang's grades to be so good. It would be great if my Su Mei was half as good."

"This child is very worry-free. I usually have a lot of things at home, and I have to go to the port to help me. I don't have time to study. I am worried that his grades will not keep up, but he said he has his own learning methods." Lu Haiyang His father smiled honestly, "If he wasn't worried about his mother's illness, this kid wouldn't apply for the university here."

"It's good to have someone to take care of you if you're close to home." Su Yuan'an's approving eyes fell on Lu Haiyang.

"The kid said that he can get a scholarship after he finishes college, which can lighten my burden."

Unknowingly, a smile appeared on Su Yuan'an's face: "Haiyang, do you have any good ways to teach Su Mei? I'm really worried that if she continues like this, the postgraduate entrance examination will be in vain again."

Lu Haiyang was mopping the floor at that time, when he heard Su Yuanan's words, he whispered, "You can find her a tutor."

He was obviously refusing, but Su Yuan'an didn't hear it, he slapped his thigh: "Why don't you teach Su Mei?"

Lu Haiyang, who was holding a mop, almost jumped up: "I can't!"

"Just take it as a favor to uncle, Su Mei's grades are really terrible."

"You child, Uncle Su has helped my family so much, what's wrong with you helping Su Mei?" Lu Qingsong shouted excitedly.

Seeing his father speak so emotionally, Lu Haiyang couldn't bear to refuse any more, and nodded while holding the mop.

Lu Haiyang didn't like this extra tutoring job. He knew that Su Mei's personality would embarrass him, so he was sad all day long.

"Lu Haiyang, Yanfu is not shallow. She tutors the boss's daughter, and she is also a little beauty." The companion who worked with him teased him.

"You all say she is beautiful, what is so beautiful about her?" Lu Haiyang said with a frown.

He didn't see Su Mei walking past at all.

Knowing that Lu Haiyang was coming to teach her homework, Su Mei's reaction was also great.She never takes her studies seriously. Even if she fails to take the postgraduate entrance examination in the future, she still has such a large sea to support her. Any one or two items in the cold storage at home are enough for her dowry.

Whether she likes it or not, Lu Haiyang's coming to be a tutor has become a fact.

On the first day he came, he explained to her the advanced mathematics that she hated the most.She pretended to listen carefully, but in the middle of class, she suddenly held her stomach: "Lu Haiyang, my stomach hurts and I need to go to the bathroom."

Lu Haiyang actually knew that this was her trick to avoid going to class, but as long as he didn't confront her head-on, he didn't bother to care about her.

She went for a long time, and then he heard her terrified cry from the bathroom: "Lu Haiyang, save me."

Lu Haiyang's vigilance was overwhelmed by this scream, and he rushed to the door subconsciously: "What's wrong with you?"

"I fell down, my leg hurts, and I can't get up." Su Mei, who was inside the door, seemed to be in pain.

He knocked open the door without thinking too much, but she didn't fall down, she was standing there wearing a small vest and laughing exaggeratedly.The little vest is very thin, she may have done it on purpose, she didn't wear anything in the vest, and two grape-like protrusions seemed to break through the ground: "Hey, do I look good?"

Lu Haiyang only felt that his throat was tight, and he was a little bit annoyed by being teased: "boring." He didn't dare to look directly at it, and turned his head, because of nervousness, his long eyelashes fluttered.

"Who asked you to tell others that I am not beautiful, so you say I am not beautiful?"

He raised his head, just in time to meet her eyes. She really has a pair of beautiful eyes, and she doesn't blink when looking at people, as if there are tiny stars shining.He really wanted to answer that she is not beautiful, what is so great about you, apart from being a little taller, a little fairer, a little darker, and a little deeper dimples than girls of the same age, how is she beautiful?
In fact, at the age of 19, he had just come of age, and he didn't know what beauty was, but every time those people in the port mentioned Su Mei, they always said she was beautiful.It is said that the breath on her body can spread against the wind for three hundred miles; it is said that every time she runs in the sea with her trousers rolled up barefoot, there is no sound around her;He was at a loss every time he heard it, but now he understands what those people said, how can a girl who is so thinly dressed, who makes his heart beat and lose his voice if he is not careful, not beautiful?
