Chapter 34 A Dream
Chapter 34 A Dream
That night Shu Youzhan had a dream.
The dream was gray, as if the whole world was covered with a dark filter, no matter how much I raised my hand to wipe my eyes, I couldn't dispel the smog in front of me.
Shu Youzhan looked down at his small, white and tender palms, and vaguely heard someone calling him. When he looked up, he could only see countless tall figures in black suits passing by with long legs. She turned around like a small spinning top, but she couldn't find where the person who called her was.
She walked around the place unconsciously, and saw a lot of white bouquets placed around. There was also a wall in the spacious hall with a big picture frame hanging on it. When she looked up, she could vaguely see that beautiful woman , A mild-looking person.
All around her ears were noisy voices, mixed with genuine and false politeness, and Shu Youzhan couldn't hear exactly what she said. She only realized in a daze that she seemed to be attending a funeral.
whose funeral?
She was surrounded by the crowd, like a sardine in a jar, she was involuntarily pushed to other places, and finally turned around, and unexpectedly turned to a courtyard with no one there.
The delicate petals drifted across her cheeks with the wind.
She thought in a daze, this flower should have a fragrance, which is faint and nice.
Some images that had been abandoned in the depths of memory floated up, Shu Youzhan raised his head, and sure enough, he saw several Xifu Begonias with countless twigs hanging down, and among the thin and round leaves, small, layered white flowers bloomed, blowing with the wind. With the sound of blowing, the thin and dense petals fell like rain.
And among the swaying branches, she caught a glimpse of a figure.
So he approached subconsciously, patted the trunk under the tree, and instinctively recognized who it was: "Zhao Qinglan... why are you here?"
The memory in the dream is always chaotic, at least at this moment Shu Youzhan didn't realize that there was something wrong with his tone.
The shoulders of the person curled up on the tree moved, keeping their backs to this side, but did not make any other reactions. Shu Youzhan felt a little anxious in his heart, and kept looking up, his voice was still soft and waxy "Zhao Qinglan, why are you ignoring me? Last week you said you would come to play with me. I have been waiting for you at home. Why don't you come?"
"Mom said you were in a bad mood, I brought you candy, would you like to try it?"
She patiently invited under the tree again and again.
It's a pity that the person above seemed to be asleep and ignored her at all.
Shu Youzhan's impatient nature couldn't help it anymore, he looked at the tree in front of him solemnly, and then, like a nimble little monkey, he stepped on the bumps and climbed up. Only then did I realize that the shoulders of the man on the tree were shaking slightly...it looked like he was crying.
She suddenly became anxious: "Don't cry, I don't blame you, I'll call you sister again, don't cry, okay?"
Because the place under his feet was a little unstable, Shu Youzhan kicked on the tree trunk anxiously while talking, and when he was about to slip, he finally saw Zhao Qinglan sitting up, with his back to her and raising his hand to wipe his face, When she turned around, the edges of her eyes, which were always clean and clear, were slightly reddened.
"I didn't cry," she said, "I got sand in my eyes just now."
Shu Youzhan pouted, staring at her face for a long time to judge, seemed to have seen through her lies, but nodded in cooperation on the face, followed the trend and climbed up the tree, squeezing her to sit down.
The small place extending from the part of the tree trunk is so narrow that it makes one's back ache, and even the calf has no place to rest, so it can only fall down and dangle in the air, but Shu Youzhan, who has always been delicate, doesn't care at all, it is round and beautiful Looking at Zhao Qinglan with brown eyes.
"You... don't be sad, my mother said, Aunt Tangtang will always watch you in the sky."
Zhao Qinglan was already healed. Hearing this, her eyes became moist again. She turned her head to look at the tree next to her, curled her lips, and said softly after a while:
"it is good."
Seeing her, Shu Youzhan knew that his consolation was not effective, so he took out a handful of fudge from his pocket and stuffed it to her, saying, "I'll be happier after eating the candy."
Zhao Qinglan lowered her head and stared at the colorful candies in her palm. After a while, she chuckled and returned the candies to Shu Youzhan, "Keep it for yourself."
Sensing that she was depressed, as if even the air had become stuffy, Shu Youzhan didn't know what to say, so he just kept looking at her from the sidelines.
After a while.
Zhao Qinglan said: "I will have a new mother."
Shu Youzhan opened his eyes wide, substituting himself for a moment, imagining how he would face other strange women without seeing Wei Shuangchi, and said in shock, "Huh?"
Zhao Qinglan raised her right hand and pressed her palm against the tree in front of her. The delicate palm touched the rough bark, and she continued as if talking to herself: "I heard that she is allergic to pollen. After a few days, these begonias will disappear. to be removed."
Shu Youzhan reflexively followed her to feel sad.
Then, not knowing how the turn in his mind turned, Shu Youzhan suddenly grabbed Zhao Qinglan's wrist and said seriously: "Go to my house."
"Although, although my mother is very fierce and beats people, she is afraid of my mother. My mother is very gentle. She will treat you well. Don't stay here. I... I will take you to my house, okay? ?”
Hearing what she said, Zhao Qinglan's expression softened, as if she was really moved by it.
However, in the end, she just pulled out her hand and replied to Shu Youzhan, "I can't go."
"Why?" Shu Youzhan felt that her whole body was caught in that kind of anxious mood. On the one hand, she shouldered the mission of saving her friends like a little hero, but on the other hand, she always felt that Zhao Qinglan's mood was so strange that she was at a loss. .
I just want to take people away from this place and coax them into a better mood.
Zhao Qinglan called her as if sighing; "Youyou."
"Ok?"
"I really envy you."
Shu Youzhan was stunned to hear the word "envy" in his friend's mouth, blinked his eyes in confusion, and opened his lips and said, "I...whatever you like, I can share with you."
Zhao Qinglan just shook her head, as if laughing at her innocence. After a long time, she looked around, took the initiative to get down from the tree, and opened her arms to her: "Come down, I'll take you back, this is not a good place, after Don't come here again today, Aunt Chi will have a hard time doing it."
At that time, Shu Youzhan didn't understand the specialties of Shu and Zhao's family, because her family education didn't deliberately instill in her the concept of family status, she didn't understand what Zhao Qinglan said at all, so she had to ask:
"Don't you want me to come?"
Zhao Qinglan seemed to want to explain, but finally said "Yes."
"Why? Don't you like me? Don't you want to play with me? Are you angry?" There are always too many doubts in the child's world, as if everyone can break all the truths and feed them to themselves , Let her see this magnificent world, but it's a pity that Zhao Qinglanbin doesn't intend to tell her.
She led Shu Youzhan and brought her to Wei Shuangchi. When Wei Shuangchi was obviously relieved, she bowed down to apologize politely. After saying a few words, Wei Shuangchi smiled at her helplessly. She smiled, then took Shu Youzhan and left.
Shu Youzhan turned her head frequently, trying to see Zhao Qinglan's expression clearly, but the road seemed to become longer all of a sudden, and she could only see that short figure was suddenly overwhelmed by countless people in black.
……
"Drip drip drip!"
The sound of the alarm clock woke up Shu Youzhan from his sleep.
She turned over and wanted to close it, but when she raised her hand, she couldn't help taking a deep breath. She realized that she was thrown by Shu Yu's back last night, her shoulder hit the ground, and the pain all over her body was like being hit by a truck. It's the same as being run over.
But today is Monday.
It took 5 minutes to wake up, Shu Youzhan belatedly remembered that dream, dragged his tired body to get up and changed his school uniform, then left the room with his schoolbag and walked downstairs.
The smell of soy milk in the kitchen came out again.
Shu Yu sat at the dining table early, looked up at her appearance, and let out a "tsk" in disgust, as if despising her physical strength and resilience, but I don't know if he was worried about Wei Shuangchi's presence, so he still didn't say any mocking words. exit.
Shu Youzhan walked to the dining table with heavy steps, and when she heard Wei Shuangchi laughingly asking her if she was not feeling well and if she would like to ask for leave today, facing Shu Yu's sharp eyes, she immediately shook her head, but the movement of holding the bread was a little weak .
After taking two bites, she thought of something and said vaguely: "That's right, Mom."
"Huh?" Wei Shuangchi was spreading jam on Shu Yu's bread, when he heard this, he turned his head to look.
"I remember...Aunt Tangtang had a funeral before, did you take me there?"
Wei Shuangchi hadn't spoken yet, but Shu Yu had already smiled: "Wake up early in the morning to talk about funerals, you can really talk, Shu Youzhan."
Shu Youzhan: "..."
Wei Shuangchi didn't have this taboo, and when he heard it, he quickly thought of it: "I didn't want to take you to participate, the Zhao family was a bit chaotic at that time, and you just wanted to go to Qinglan, and you didn't let go when you got there. , I was too scared, your mother beat you up after you came back, forget?"
Shu Youzhan: "..."
Well, the cause of amnesia has been found.
Because this story was too unpleasant, Shu Youzhan reflexively threw it deep into his memory when he grew up, and even threw the episodes with Zhao Qinglan into the trash can.
For example, now, being hooked by the memory of this dream, she even thought about it carefully. She didn't seem to hate Zhao Qinglan much when she was a child. Even when the other party came to show off to her with certificates, it seemed... She proposed it first want to see.
However, those unpleasant endings in her childhood, as well as the tit-for-tat confrontation influenced by her family later, have already put on another layer of filter when she looks at people, and her memory has also changed a layer of color.
She gnawed on the bread. She wanted to drink soy milk, but it was too hot when it was boiled. Wei Shuangchi wanted to put it in a thermos for her to drink on the road, but Shu Youzhan, who was afraid of trouble, took her schoolbag and ran away. The helplessness of the daughter-in-law, and that "little bastard".
……
"Let's ask the students with full marks to tell me, why did you choose B for this question—Student Shu?"
It's still Lao Fang's class.
Shu Youzhan threw the full-score test paper aside, and while doing the mock exams, he searched the political news of previous years with his mobile phone in the bottom of the table, and even focused on recalling some scenes of getting along with Zhao Qinglan later in his mind.
For example, after she was taken away from the Zhao family that time, she sulked for a long time alone.
She thought that if Zhao Qinglan didn't come to her, she wouldn't look for him either.
Unexpectedly, the breath-holding competition was really overwhelming, so she had to lick her face to ask for peace. Unexpectedly, Zhao Qinglan's attitude was lukewarm. Compared with before, even the smile was stingy. Shu Youzhan was very angry and unilaterally prolonged the cold war.
Young people's self-esteem is always higher than the sky.
There were always too many people coming and going in the process of growing up, Shu Youzhan never set his sights on his opponent, and when he was in junior high school, he understood the relationship between Shu and Zhao ignorantly, and was always picked up by the media as a comparison group, so...their relationship never got better.
"Student Shu?"
"what?"
In the voice of Lao Fang's patient reminder, Shu Youzhan suddenly reacted, and when he looked up, he heard Lao Fang repeating tirelessly: "Why did you choose B?"
Pei Yi, who was obliquely in front, turned her head and reminded her in a low voice, "Choose, the tenth question."
Shu Youzhan glanced at the test paper, and frowned suspiciously. He didn't know what Fang wanted to say, so he tried to say, "...Because ACD is excluded first?"
The classroom roared with laughter.
Some people applauded her and booed, "Is this the world of a top student?"
Lao Fang smiled helplessly, and asked them to restrain themselves: "Quiet! Look at you, when you can see the correct answer at a glance, I don't have to change your test paper every time and leave it there to pull a lot of hair." gone."
"Still laughing! Do you have the nerve to laugh!"
……
Simultaneously.
remote planet.
In front of the charcoal brazier, Zhao Qinglan finished a new round of duty. Even in the warm back tent at this moment, Alpha's physique is excellent, and he couldn't bear it. He exhaled a breath of cold air, and turned his hands over the brazier. Flip and feel the heat.
"Hey, you're skinny and tender, didn't you secretly come to practice in the imperial family?"
Someone saw that she just had a chilblain on her hand, and teased her enviously.
Zhao Qinglan also had a slight smile in his eyes, and said, "Which royal family in the empire have you ever seen without inheriting the throne, and came to this place to abuse yourself?"
"That's right." The man smiled approvingly.
Taking advantage of this atmosphere, everyone didn't know what emotions were aroused. They talked about their own family affairs, and said that before the start of their stationing mission, their family members were so reluctant to give up. They insisted on feeding a few delicious meals, and even The pickle jar wants her to take it on the spaceship.
In the joyful atmosphere, someone noticed that Zhao Qinglan was silent.
"Why didn't you mention family? Didn't you say you were going to call your family last time? Why haven't you been tossing around recently?"
Zhao Qinglan has been with them for a long time, and she is no longer as cautious as before.
Now he just smiled lightly and said, "No one in my family will worry about me."
"what?"
Someone realized something, kept silent for a moment, and wanted to change the subject, and saw Zhao Qinglan staring at the warm charcoal fire in the basin, with a glimmer of light in his eyes, and continued as if talking to himself:
"It's just someone who misses me very much."
After a tense atmosphere, it was relaxed again. Seeing her excellent skin, the other Alphas cooed: "It must be an Omega, right! Is it beautiful? What kind of look? Do you have a picture for us to see?"
After being reminded like this, Zhao Qinglan realized that there is indeed no picture of Shu Youzhan in her mobile phone.
The only time the two get along intimately is when they mark each other.
At other times, Shu Youzhan was like a little hedgehog, always erecting sharp thorns all over her body, threatening her not to approach.
"Tell me, I'm so curious, you're the first one in our group to get out of the singles—"
"I want to hear if Omega is really soft and fragrant."
Seeing that someone was going to turn the topic into a dangerous abyss, Zhao Qinglan felt a little offended for no reason, stood up immediately, pursed her lips, "If you want to know, find someone yourself."
"My people, I just know what to do."
The light in Zhao Qinglan's eyes dimmed a little.
She found herself so stingy.
Even at this time, I don't want to share even the slightest news about my treasure with others.
Whether it's the alluring scent of water lilies, or the way Shu Youzhan turned his head in pain, holding her clothes gently with tears in his eyes... Only she knows those secrets.
