Beauty across the cloud

=========================

The days seem like years, and each day seems like a year.Jin Lan felt that this word could be used to describe his current state.That's not to say he suffers every day, however, and therefore feels the hours are long.Rather, he felt that with each passing day like this, he was getting old rapidly.They look at the snow when it is sunny, and they enjoy flowers in the haze.When Jin Lan turned his head, Luo Weiqiu would just come up to hug him.Too comfortable days, lazy limbs, lazy body and mind.The warmth between two people is enough to fill this empty house.Jin Lan may be worried that one day when she looks in the mirror, she will find that she has gray hair.

But he also felt that it would be nice to grow old like this.

Once when they came back from watching a movie outside, they met a neighbor walking with a big golden retriever. He was lively and well-behaved, and his appearance was very pleasing. Jin Lan couldn't help but take a second look. keep a pet.

Jin Lan's answer is, everything is fine.

Whether it's a pet or a human, it's fine.

At that time, it was already dark and cold, and there were no people on the street, only a row of street lights along the road stubbornly resisting the silence of the night.Luo Weiqiu's fingers protruded from the sleeves, swaying in the cool wind, and accidentally swayed into Jin Lan's palm.Jin Lan didn't push away, nor did he hide.

It was also exhausting for him to keep avoiding it all the time.Occasionally, there will be a loss of defense once or twice, let people succeed and succeed.

At that time, Jin Lan thought about the rabbit they picked up together, and was still thinking about whether to tell Luo Weiqiu the real situation.But when I turned my head and saw his smile, I felt unable to speak.Why spoil the fun at this time?Jin Lan thought to himself.After he goes back to school, send a message to tell him he's all right.He didn't want to see the slightest bit of hurt on that face with his own eyes.

When the wind blows from the opposite side, everyone must turn sideways to avoid it, and cannot compete head-on.But Jin Lan doesn't have to worry, Luo Weiqiu is always in front of him at this time.

"Senior, are you afraid of the cold?" Luo Weiqiu asked at that time.

"A little bit." Jin Lan said honestly.

"Then I want to put you in my arms."

unrealistic.Jin Lan wanted to complain about him, but didn't say anything.Because Luo Weiqiu's smile was like a wisp of smoke in the clear sky, he was afraid that the smoke would disperse as soon as he said it.

It was another afternoon, the sun outside the house was blinding people's eyes, and the curtains were not drawn inside the house for the first time.The sun shines through the window, falls on the ground, and falls on Jin Lan's smooth back.Luo Weiqiu couldn't hold back, and greeted Jin Lan's nape carefully and gently with his teeth.

Jin Lan stretched out his hands to pinch his face, while Luo Weiqiu held him down, and the two had another round of nonsense.

He didn't make it to the end, because Jin Lan told him from the perspective of health preservation that he should not be greedy for this kind of thing.

Senior is really stingy.Luo Weiqiu wanted to take a bath, but before getting off the bed, he had to grab him and bite him hard on the neck.

Jin Lan was lying on the bed, the sun was rubbing his muscles and bones with invisible hands, he really didn't want to get up.Thinking about practicing at school in winter and summer, and in the laboratory and dormitory at two o'clock and one line every day, I feel that it was a long time ago.

Rongrong's warmth made him drowsy, and at this moment he heard the sound of high heels stepping on the floor.

When Luo Weiqiu came out of the bedroom with the heat, she saw that Jin Lan had already put on her clothes and was sitting by the bed, her eyes were looking at something.

"Senior?" Luo Weiqiu walked over, he felt something happened.

Jin Lan heard the sound and looked up at him.He actually wanted to smile, or try to smooth out his trembling voice, he was afraid that his panic would be transmitted to Luo Weiqiu.But eyes don't lie.

"What's wrong, tell me." Luo Weiqiu bent down and gently embraced him.

Jin Lan broke free.

"Your mother is here. She wants to talk to you."

At that moment, Luo Weiqiu's complexion also became complicated.But he was actually calmer than Jin Lan.

Luo Miao is outside the room, but Luo Weiqiu still has time to think here.

He pulled Jin Lan up, pressed him on the chair in front of the desk, and brought another earphone for him to put on.

Jin Lan opened his eyes wide, not knowing why.

"Senior, can you promise me one thing, okay? You must promise me." Luo Weiqiu said, "I'm going out to talk to her now, don't take off your earphones, and don't go out until I come back."

In fact, he couldn't say that he was afraid of Luo Miao, he was just afraid that he would quarrel with Luo Miao in a moment of excitement, and Jin Lan would hear or see the two of them saying something unpleasant.

"Be good, you're really fine...I never care about what she thinks." Jin Lan wanted to hide, but Luo Weiqiu refused, and forcefully grabbed his face and kissed the center of his brow.

Music starts playing in the earphones.

Jin Lan watched Luo Weiqiu turn and leave, he walked to the door, put his hand on the doorknob, the moment he was about to push the door out, he paused.

He is breathing deeply.He was obviously nervous too.

Little liar, Jin Lan thought, how could you not care?

You obviously care about what your mother thinks, don't you?

He remembered the situation when Luo Miao pushed the door and entered just now.At that time, the two looked at each other for a while.Jin Lan wanted to explain at first, but felt that it was too much: he was lying on someone's son's bed with no clothes on, and the place exposed was full of hickey marks, so why explain it!

But Luo Miao is actually not the same as the decisive female devil in Tong Chu's depiction, and there is no call for someone to throw Jin Lan out.She was shocked at first, and then quickly calmed down.

She glanced at the bathroom with the sound of rushing water, and the first words she said to Jin Lan were: Luo Weiqiu came out and told him, I want to talk to him.

His tone was very light, and he couldn't hear any emotion, as if he was explaining a daily work to his subordinates.

Then when she turned to leave, she finally seemed to remember something, and turned to Jin Lan and said: I really didn't think of it, because the child used to like girls.

This is a comment on Luo Weiqiu, but it seems to inform Jin Lan of an unchangeable fact.

I took the initiative.Jin Lan said.

Hearing this, Luo Miao became interested in Jin Lan, and she took a deep look at him.With her body sideways, half of her face was hidden in a dark place where the sun couldn't shine, and Jin Lan couldn't see her expression clearly.After a glance, Luo Miao walked out of the room without looking back, and even politely closed the door for Jin Lan.

Luo Weiqiu walked out of the room, stood on the stairs, and saw Luo Miao standing in front of the French window.

When Luo Miao heard footsteps, she raised her head and looked at Luo Weiqiu, watching him walk in front of her step by step.

"The weather is fine today, you should go out more often."

Luo Weiqiu didn't want to argue with her or talk nonsense, so he went straight to the point: "I don't want to hear your opinion, I just hope you don't bother us." He specifically emphasized: "Especially don't bother him."

Luo Miao was wearing a haute couture suit, with a delicate face and an indifferent expression, and two locks of hair hanging down beside her glasses.Compared with Luo Weiqiu's guarded expression, she was able to handle it with ease, and could even be called extremely relaxed.

She had seen so many difficult and strong negotiating opponents, and she didn't even want to say anything more when facing her son.

"You don't answer your phone calls, I just came to see how you get along," Luo Miao reached out and brushed her hair behind her ears, "I didn't expect that we got along very well."

"Then you see now, you can go."

"Don't you want to hear my opinion?"

Luo Weiqiu looked at her with complicated eyes.There was anger, bewilderment, perplexity, and confusion hidden deep in those eyes.

"How many times have you managed me over the years? Now you want to express your opinion?"

Luo Miao thought for a while, "That's right, then I'd better go."

"Wait," Luo Weiqiu hesitated, and stopped her: "It's all my idea..."

"You forced him?"

"……more or less."

At this moment, Luo Miao turned her head and took a closer look at her son in front of her: "He just told me something similar... So you are sincere."

"But, do you remember the 'flower dress' thing?"

After leaving these words, she picked up the bag on the chair, without giving Luo Weiqiu time to react, her high heels clicked, and she went straight out the door.

Watching her turn around, watching her open the door, watching her disappear behind the entrance door.On the contrary, Luo Weiqiu was the one who was stunned in place, unable to calm down for a long time.

"Flower skirt" actually refers to a girl in Luo Weiqiu's elementary school class. At that time, Luo Weiqiu liked this little girl very much and chased her all day long.But later, because of the job transfer of the girl's parents, the whole family moved out of town, and Luo Weiqiu never saw her again.After so many years, I can't even remember her name, but I only remember that she liked to wear a floral skirt at that time.

After learning the news of the girl's transfer, the young Luo Weiqiu ran to Luo Miao's office, hugging her leg, crying and calling for her to transfer to another school.

At that time, Luo Miao just asked the assistant to hug Luo Weiqiu away, and then said without raising her head while flipping through the contract: "It's useless to cry, no one will always be with you, it's better if you understand this earlier."

Jin Lan came down from upstairs and saw Luo Weiqiu sitting on the sofa alone, with his shoulders loosely leaning against the back of the sofa.Put your hands on your face.

Jin Lan watched him quietly for a minute, but he remained motionless.

"Luo Weiqiu?" Jin Lan said softly.

The person who was called froze for a moment, then immediately put down his hand, showing a face: "Senior."

"Sorry," Jin Lan approached him, sitting on the other side of the sofa, and said, "I'm still coming out."

"No, no, no," Luo Weiqiu rubbed his eyes and said, "Blame me, it's been too long... I should go upstairs immediately. I just... want to think for myself for a while."

At this moment, Jin Lan suddenly no longer felt that Luo Weiqiu was the child before, the child would not show that expression, he finally looked like an adult full of exhaustion and disappointment.

"Can you tell me anything?" Jin Lan asked.

Luo Weiqiu thought for a while: "Actually, there's nothing you can't say."

Jin Lan took the initiative to sit over and patted herself on the shoulder, "Come on, I will lend you my shoulder. If you want to talk, just say it, if you don't want to say it... just wait a while."

Luo Weiqiu turned his head to look at him, there was still a bright light in his eyes, this light made Jin Lan feel familiar.His head slowly slid on the back of the sofa, towards Jin Lan, and finally rested on his thigh.

"You and your mother don't have a good relationship." Jin Lan started first.

Luo Weiqiu took Jin Lan's hand and covered her eyes.

"I didn't think of her as a mother most of the time."

"She probably hated me too. Back then, she married my...father, it was just a business marriage, and she needed this way at that time. But at that time, they didn't have any emotional basis, and their personalities were not suitable, so It didn't take long before we separated."

"I heard that my father went abroad, and she didn't want me. It is said that she thought I looked like my father. But because my grandfather liked me, she gave me to my grandfather to raise me. Later... my grandfather passed away, It was the nanny who took me."

"When I grow up a bit, I don't need a nanny anymore, and I live alone."

"This house...was their wedding room at first, and now it's just me. She hated that marriage, so she rarely comes here now."

"Before I went to junior high school, I kept thinking why she seldom came to see me, and I kept thinking about how to please her. I didn't know these things until I went to junior high school. I was very angry. I found her and asked her, Now that you're divorced, why not just find someone you like and marry, why punish me, why make it appear that I delayed her."

"Then she said, do you think I don't want to?"

"I just found out that the person she liked died when I was about two years old."

"It's actually quite funny. After I realized that she didn't like me at all, I still wanted to please her, or...to get her attention."

"Sometimes I study hard to be among the best, sometimes I am addicted to online games, and I have a computer at home and go to an Internet cafe to play, all because I want to hear her praise me or scold me."

"I can understand Cantonese, senior, do you know why? She has been handling business in the South for several years. When I saw her, I was always curious about what they were talking about and wanted to understand what she said, so I searched a lot. Watching Cantonese movies, I wanted to learn... Later I could understand, and found that it was just some boring words."

"Actually, if you think about it, she never cared about it from the beginning to the end. Seeing what happened to us today, I thought she was going to get angry at last, but...she actually didn't say anything."

Not knowing if it was an illusion, Jin Lan felt a little wet between her fingertips.

He said: "I can't comment on the things between you, I just think, maybe, she is also caring about you in her own way."

Luo Weiqiu didn't speak.

The two sat quietly for a while.The brightest sunlight in the afternoon faded away, the golden yellow turned to dim yellow, the shadows of the trees were cast on the opposite wall, black dead branches climbed up, and the empty living room looked like a frame of a movie.

"Senior," Luo Weiqiu murmured, "You said that she and the man who is my father obviously hate each other, how can they still get married and give birth to me?"

Jin Lan pinched his face, but did not answer.

Some people hate each other and still stay together, and some people like each other and still stay together, which shows that "like" is never a sufficient and necessary condition for "together".It's just that human beings are passionate and don't put them into the same proposition.

"Luo Weiqiu," Jin Lan said suddenly, "Do you want to come for a kiss?"

Kissing between lovers should happen naturally, it is a very natural thing.But what Jin Lan said was just a suggestion.It's like suggesting that others wear more clothes when it's cold, and suggesting that others take an umbrella when it's raining.

He suggested this only because sad people do happy things.

Just like the night when he first stepped into this room, his heart softened because he was afraid that Luo Weiqiu would catch cold, Jin Lan just couldn't see him getting hurt or sad.

And Luo Weiqiu was bewitched by his words, got up from his body, Jin Lan held his face in his hands, moved forward lightly, and printed on his lips.The two were so close that neither of them closed their eyes, and each saw themselves in each other's eyes.

Just a kiss for a second, a kiss with a touch of water, a kiss without the slightest lust.Compared to the gluttonous feast that two people have these days, perhaps this kiss is not even comparable to a bowl of noodles in clear soup.

But why...

"Senior."

"Ok?"

"My heart is beating so fast."

"Is it because of the kiss?"

"I don't know, never before."

"Then, kiss again?"

"it is good."

"Luo Weiqiu."

"Ok?"

"I'll test your Cantonese."

"Okay, but I can only listen, but I'm not very good at speaking."

"It's okay. How do you say 'tomorrow' in Cantonese?"

"Listen to the day."

"'What now?"

"And home."

"'sorry'?"

"Excuse me."

"What about 'thank you'?"

"No."

"I love you."

"I like you."

He took his hand lightly.

It's like holding a dream in the palm of your hand.
