The door of the house quietly opened. Zhou Lian, who knew that Xiao Xiaoyu must be afraid of the dark, came out to see her out. She saw the silhouettes of the two walking towards the bright road outside.

After watching for a long time, she quietly returned home.

And stood behind the door.

Zhou Lian hadn't returned to the house for a long time, and her mind and expression were a little complicated.

She just saw the mobile phone that Xiao Xiaoyu was using now.

Xiao Xiaoyu called her the day before yesterday.

It was because the mobile phone was dropped into the toilet by the boss, and the other party compensated her with one.

However, Xiao Xiaoyu's mobile phone before was a very broken Nokia, which could not be sold for 20 yuan. It was replaced by her sister-in-law, that is, Xiao Xiaoyu's aunt, who didn't know how long ago, and was going to throw it into the trash can.

Dropped such a mobile phone into the toilet.

The other party compensated Xiao Xiaoyu with such a good one...

Although Xiao Xiaoyu said that he would pay the other party back.

But when the other party bought it for Xiao Xiaoyu, did he think of asking Xiao Xiaoyu to pay?

If you have to say that he is rich and willful, it is not impossible, after all, he has to spend so much money on a meal.

But what about now?

Zhou Lian just saw a car parked on the main road outside with the lights on.

There is no way to drive into the alley. He could obviously wait outside, but he walked in to pick up Xiao Xiaoyu...

How does this have anything to do with money?

...

"Let's go have some midnight snack first." After getting in the car, Jiang Che asked Xiao Xiaoyu sitting in the passenger seat.

"I..." Xiao Xiaoyu was speechless.

"When I came just now, I saw a good kebab restaurant with quite a lot of people. I think it should be delicious." Jiang Che instantly thought of the reason for her embarrassment, and without looking at her again, he shifted the gear and started the car and drove forward.

Yes.

She basically never went out at night, how could she know where the midnight snack was delicious?

She didn't have any entertainment equipment.

The only reason for staying up late is to read and study...

Maybe Xiao Xiaoyu is very afraid of the dark, and this is also a big part of the reason.

Xiao Xiaoyu wrote this in her mother's diary shortly before her mother died:

She is very afraid of the dark, and so is her mother. She remembers that when she was a child, her mother was afraid of the dark and had her father to protect her, but after her father was gone, her mother was no longer afraid of the dark. Her mother told her that the reason she was no longer afraid was because her father would protect her in secret. If her mother was gone, she hoped that she could also face the darkness bravely and strongly, because her mother would also protect her in the dark with her father...

That page of the diary was covered with tears...

There are many contents in the diary that Jiang Che did not dare to open for so many years. This page is one of them.

The mother who is afraid of the dark has to be strong and face the darkness because of life.

Xiaoyu, who was afraid of the dark, was swallowed up in the darkness forever before she could pretend to be strong...

Sitting in a barbecue stall with Xiao Xiaoyu at night, she was obviously very unfamiliar with this environment.

Jiang Che asked her what she wanted to eat, and she said she was not hungry, and Jiang Che stared at her for a while.

"Jiang Che, if you don't want to eat by yourself, I can eat a little bit..." Xiao Xiaoyu said weakly: "I can eat anything."

I have learned to fill in the blanks by myself!

Very good!

Jiang Che picked up a pen and wrote down the main points on the white paper. After writing a few, the pen stopped, looked up at Xiao Xiaoyu and asked: "Do you like lamb kidneys?"

"?"

Xiao Xiaoyu looked at a loss.

Well, I haven't eaten it before.

You have to try it to know whether you like it or not.

So, Jiang Che wrote down the words "grilled lamb kidneys x2".

After a while.

The grilled skewers were served on the table one after another.

After eating light food for so many years, a little fishy smell was very stimulating to Xiao Xiaoyu's taste buds. She took a small bite and couldn't accept it. She looked at Jiang Che, not knowing what to do.

Then Jiang Che taught her that it was not good to eat in small bites, and she should swallow it in one bite.

He swallowed one himself.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiaoyu also tried it.

Her mouth was a little small, so she only bit off half of it.

As a result, she only chewed it twice, and her whole face turned red with the naked eye. She drank several mouthfuls of water before finally swallowing it.

"Why don't you spit it out if you can't eat it?" Jiang Che walked behind her and patted her flat back.

"I..." Xiao Xiaoyu lowered her head and didn't answer.

"Can't bear to waste it?" Jiang Che asked.

"Well..." Xiao Xiaoyu nodded.

"What do you do with the rest of these?" Jiang Che pointed to the skewer in her hand.

To be precise, there was still one and a half on it.

A kidney was split in half and put on a skewer.

Xiao Xiaoyu only ateHalf of the top half.

Xiao Xiaoyu looked at the lamb kidney in her hand, was silent for a moment, and said, "I can finish it."

"Give it to me, so I don't have to order more."

Jiang Che took the skewer from her.

"The top one..."

Xiao Xiaoyu wanted to say that she could eat the top one, but before she opened her mouth, Jiang Che had already taken it.

She opened her mouth unexpectedly.

She thought Jiang Che would dislike her, so she didn't even think about asking Jiang Che to help her eat it, and she had to force herself to finish it.

But she didn't expect...

She lowered her head deeply, and the blush on her face, I don't know if it was the blush that just now has not dissipated...

Jiang Che ordered a lot of things, even a lot, and kept telling Xiao Xiaoyu that it would be a waste if she couldn't finish it, but she still couldn't finish it.

Knowing that she really couldn't eat anymore, Jiang Che called the waiter to pack it up.

Xiao Xiaoyu, who kept burping, tilted her head and looked at Jiang Che with a very strange look...

After packing, she asked for a cardboard box to seal it and put it in the trunk. Jiang Che drove Xiao Xiaoyu away from the food stall. After the car drove away, many people cast surprised eyes. Such a luxury car was rare in the county town, and they all talked about who was driving.

The county town was not big, and it was very fast to drive from the east to the west. Not long after leaving the county town, the car drove on an empty mountain road and stopped halfway up the mountain.

Xiao Xiaoyu thought Jiang Che was going somewhere with a purpose, so she didn't say anything until Jiang Che drove the car to this place and stopped again. She suddenly realized that something was wrong: "Classmate Jiang Che, are we lost?"

Her tone was very anxious.

She herself was not very familiar with the road, even though this was where she had lived for more than ten years.

If she got lost, she wouldn't know how to get back at night...

"You're not lost, get off the car."

Jiang Che said.

"Huh?"

Xiao Xiaoyu asked in confusion.

Before she asked more, Jiang Che had already opened the car door and got out.

She didn't understand why, but she still opened the car door and got out and followed him.

Not far ahead, there was a large flat stone.

Jiang Che stood on the stone and looked up at the sky.

Xiao Xiaoyu walked to his side and looked up like him.

And this time.

Her eyes widened a little.

The sky was full of stars, brilliant and dazzling.

"So beautiful..." Xiao Xiaoyu couldn't help but exclaimed.

Jiang Che turned his head and looked at her, then opened his throat and shouted loudly to the empty hillside below: "Xiao Xiaoyu, if making a wish to a shooting star can really come true, what is your wish?"

"My wish..."

Xiao Xiaoyu said seriously without thinking: "I hope to live a healthy and happy life!"

What a simple wish...

"The voice is too soft, speak louder."

Xiao Xiaoyu was silent for a while, but still raised her voice and shouted this wish again:

"I hope...I can live a healthy and happy life!"

She has never spoken too loudly.

This volume is her limit.

"Then make a wish."

Jiang Che said with a smile.

"But there is no shooting star!" Xiao Xiaoyu tilted her head and said.

"Close your eyes."

Jiang Che reached out and gently covered her eyes, slightly adjusted the angle of her head, and pointed it at the sky in one direction.

For some reason, after Jiang Che covered her, Xiao Xiaoyu felt her heart beating very fast.

Suddenly.

The warm hands left her eyes again.

She opened her eyes, and in the sky facing her, a meteor flashed by.

Then, there was a second, a third, a fourth...

She opened her eyes wide in surprise, and quickly made a wish in her heart.

With so many meteors, can she make many wishes?

Xiao Xiaoyu thought secretly.

She was not so greedy.

Let her make two or three!

The dark bottom of her eyes reflected the starry sky, and the lines of meteors passing through the sky also flashed through her eyes.

Xiao Xiaoyu, who didn't know how many wishes she made, turned her head to look at Jiang Che beside her and laughed.

This smile seemed to make the stars in the sky pale in comparison.
