taste of honey

The chat interface was silent for about half a minute, and soon it was displayed that the other party was typing. Long Jiu replied: I just finished my work.

It's late at night and still busy.Jiang Yi turned over and faced out the dark window, asking: What are you busy with?

Duan Qingxu: Many things.

It's not a perfunctory answer, it's true that there are a lot of miscellaneous things, just dealing with the guests is enough, not to mention the finishing touches, Duan Dongcheng's legs and feet are inconvenient, the burden is on her and Uncle Qi, and today he is like a spinning top from morning till night The same non-stop.

Jiang Yi didn't even see Uncle Qi twice today. She typed a line, deleted it, hesitated for a while, and changed it to: Are you back in your room?

Duan Qingxu: Yes.

Typing took time, and the other party never answered. Jiang Yi sent a voice call, and the bell rang for a long time before being picked up.

On the other end of the phone, Duan Qingxu spoke first, his low voice was full of tiredness and exhaustion, and he was very listless.

"Jiang Yi—" she just shouted without saying a word.

The intentionally lowered voice was transmitted, and when it reached the ears, it changed its taste. It became more mellow and deep. Jiang Yi unconsciously shrank into the thin quilt, covering herself tightly, almost shrunk her whole head go in.

Rarely, she didn't want to be as coquettish as before, but hummed: "Here."

After finishing speaking, there was no more to say, so it looked like Duan Qingxu made the phone call on his own initiative.The phone was quiet for a moment, and soon there was a slight sound. The other party probably hadn't gone to bed yet, and was probably walking around the room.

"What are you doing?" Duan Qingxu asked.

The quilt was too tightly covered, and it was a little hot. Jiang Yi didn't move and said, "Get ready for bed."

There was a moment of silence on the phone, "Then rest early."

Jiang Yi was taken aback, and said, "I'm not sleepy yet."

Duan Qing hummed, not intending to hang up the phone.

Lying on her side with her arms pressed, she felt uncomfortable after a while. Jiang Yi changed to lying on her back and turned off the light. The room was plunged into darkness immediately. She asked, "What did you say that day at the top of the mountain?"

Duan Qingxu didn't understand, and asked instead: "When?"

"I went to Aning's to get a power bank. I came out and met you. I didn't hear what you said clearly."

The other side was silent for a while, and replied truthfully, "I asked what you were doing there."

Jiang Yi poked out from under the quilt to breathe in the fresh air, a little in disbelief: "Really?"

"Ah."

Thinking about it, otherwise, what else could be said about secrets.But she caught it again, switched the phone to the other side to answer, and said, "Why are you going there, looking for someone?"

At that time, Qin Yu, Du Yuan, and the brothers and sisters of the Zhou family were not there, and everyone was playing cards on the other side.

Duan Qingxu couldn't answer.She couldn't help chuckling, she could probably guess it in her heart, but she still asked deliberately: "Who are you looking for?"

"I didn't find anyone."

Jiang Yi didn't believe a word, kicked most of the quilt away, crossed her legs and said, "Let's go back to school tomorrow, call me when the time comes."

There was no sound on the phone.

She didn't care so much, and said directly: "Okay, it's time to sleep, good night."

After talking, hang up the phone, put down the phone, pull the quilt, and really close your eyes to sleep.

The party was exhausting enough, she soon fell into a deep sleep, the window was open, the night breeze was blowing softly, and she slept soundly until dawn.

Because everyone slept late last night, Zheng Yun did not wake up the siblings for dinner early in the morning as usual, but went upstairs to call for people when it was almost noon.In fact, she and Chen Yuqiu were even more tired. The cross-border travel and gatherings took a lot of energy, but today was the last day of the National Day, and the two had to cheer up and send the siblings away.

Jiang Ning had to go back to school for self-study at three o'clock in the afternoon, and he had classes in the evening in the third year of high school. After lunch, Chen Yuqiu drove him off in person.

As for Jiang Yi, she went back to her room after eating and took a nap. After waking up, she lingered at home for a long time. It wasn't until after four o'clock that Uncle Qi came to call for someone, and then she went out with her luggage.

Originally Zheng Yun planned to send her to school, but she refused.

"I'll take the car next door. You can rest at home and don't get tired." She coaxed and hugged Zheng Yun, "Mom, I won't be going home this weekend. You will pick me up on Chongyang Day, remember .”

Zheng Yun had no choice but to laugh, and helped her carry her luggage.

When she reached the gate, Jiang Yi took the box by herself and told her to go back.With Uncle Qi around, Zheng Yun followed her and watched her walk to the Duan's house next door.

Duan Qingxu was waiting at the door, the driver hadn't brought the car over yet, Uncle Qi didn't want to see them off this time, he still had something to do, so he went in after a few instructions.

Jiang Yi pulled the suitcase and stood next to Bingtuozi, looked at her black big-name suitcase, and thought it was pretty good, and she could buy the same style next time when she changed suitcases.Duan Qingxu said few words, only glanced at her, she pretended to be strange and kicked the grass on the side of the road.

"What time did you come back?"

"One o'clock." Duan Qingxu said.

Jiang Yi snorted, pulled the suitcase aside, and took half a step towards her, standing shoulder to shoulder.

The wind near the evening is especially cool, with the natural freshness unique to the soil, the sky is blue, the sky is as clear as washing, and there are scattered white clouds floating in the sky.

everything is fine.

Jiang Yi came by chance, and saw that the person next to him was still very cold, and deliberately teased him. When a gust of wind blew, she suddenly covered her left eye, pretended to rub it hard twice, and pretended to say: "My eyes..."

Duan Qingxu looked over immediately.

She pretended to be pretty, rubbed the corners of her eyes red, and asked for help from this person: "It hurts, is there sand in it, please blow it for me."

While speaking, he leaned forward, put his hands on Duan Qingxu's shoulders, and urged: "Hurry up, I can't even open my eyes."

Duan Qingxu didn't think too much, leaned over and really wanted to help her.

As soon as he got closer, the corners of his lips became warm.

Jiang Yi moved so fast that she backed away before she could react, and then looked at the road as if nothing had happened.

It's fine when the two of you are alone, but now in broad daylight... her thin lips are almost drawn into a slit, and she tightly holds the handle.

The car came quickly, and the driver first helped them put their suitcases.

Jiang Yi was in a good mood, so she went up to sit near Duan's house.After the two of them got in the car, the driver did not start immediately, but waited in the trunk. Uncle Qi came out with big and small bags of food, which were for Jiang Yi, and said with a smile: "I almost forgot this, I gave it to Jiang Yi You keep it."

He went back to his hometown before, and these are specialties.

Jiang Yi was a little surprised, and said again and again: "Thank you, Uncle Qi."

Uncle Qi waved his hand and said, "Qing Xu and the others don't like to eat these. I have bad teeth, so I leave them alone. You can take them to school to eat."

Jiang Yi nodded like a pounding garlic: "Hey, good!"

The driver drove away from Duan's house gradually.Jiang Yi inadvertently looked upstairs at Duan's house, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar tall figure, and her heart skipped a beat.

Duan Dongcheng was standing on the balcony leaning on crutches. He didn't know when he came out. He was looking at the car sending the two of them with a serious expression.

Uncle Qi went up to the second floor, saw him still standing there, thought he was watching Duan Qingxu off, thought for a while, and said: "Next time, you can see her off at the door."

Originally, the two families were deserted, but since Chen Yuqiu married Zheng Yun, the Chen family seemed to be lively and lively, while the Duan family was still the same, except for the three of them, there were so many servants in the big house, but it was still lifeless.

Duan Dongcheng said nothing, seeing the black Maybach disappearing into the distance, he looked away.

Uncle Qi was worried about his injured foot and asked, "Don't stand still, walk more."

Duan Dongcheng said in a deep voice, "I didn't stand for long."

……

The first thing to do after returning to school is to go to the opening meeting and team meeting of the Sixth Teaching Team at 06:30. As the end draws to a close, the squad leader informs about the Winter Games and calls on everyone to sign up for the competition.

There are few boys in the English department, so you don’t need to ask any questions, all of them are compulsory to participate. As for the girls, they adhere to the principle of voluntariness, try to respect everyone’s choice, and come if they want.The consequence of the voluntary principle was that only two girls signed up, and the entire department couldn't make up a team. In the end, the department directly allocated places to each class and required that no one be selected to participate.

The class was so unlucky that they were assigned women's 3000 meters and 100 meters.The squad leader wailed and begged everywhere, but no one was willing to participate in the 3000 meters. She found Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi was definitely not willing.

But after learning that quality credits can be added, she was a little hesitant. She has never participated in any other activities except volunteering since her freshman year. If she doesn’t take advantage of her free time in her sophomore year to complete her quality credits, she doesn’t have so much time in her junior year. Yes, and the squad leader promised that this will be considered comprehensively in the end-of-term evaluation and awards.Jiang Yi's college entrance examination scores were indeed at the bottom of the class, but after a year, her total score was in the upper middle of the class, and she could get a scholarship by just a little bit, and missed all other awards perfectly.

She finally agreed and signed the registration form.

"The class and the college will also give subsidies, about 200 yuan, which will be credited to your card after the game." The monitor said, completely relieved.

Jiang Yi smiled and said, "I've paid you a subsidy to invite you to dinner."

"Okay."

That's it.

The next day, after the group homework report was finished, Jiang Yi went to the second canteen for lunch, and happened to meet Duan Qingxu who was also alone.

She sat across from her with a plate, "Qin Yu wasn't with you?"

Duan Qingxu replied: "He has other matters."

Jiang Yi snorted, and was about to say more, when she looked up and suddenly saw the class monitor and Zhang Yi and his party, who were looking for seats.

There were vacant seats at the table for the two of them, and the squad leader hurriedly asked everyone to come over and sit down.

"What a coincidence." Zhang Yi spoke first, and sat down to her left.

When there were more people, the dinner table became lively. Everyone knew Duan Qingxu and greeted him one after another.

The squad leader took a sip of soup, saw the two of them, and remembered the sports meeting, so he said casually: "Zhang Yi reported the men's 5000-meter race. They are both in the same class and the time is right. You two can work together in the future." For training, I happen to have a companion."

Jiang Yi didn't care so much, but was surprised that Zhang Yi would report this, and sighed: "5000 meters is not easy to run, and I'm afraid I will die if I run down."

"It's okay." Zhang Yi smiled, seeming a little shy, "Don't you also run three thousand, it's not too much difference."

Jiang Yi shook her head and gestured with her left hand: "It's 2000 meters short, and you need to run five more laps on the 400-meter runway."

The rest were amused by her serious appearance, and some students joked: "You two are the hope of our class, try to win an award."

The smile on Zhang Yi's face never disappeared, and he turned his head to look at Jiang Yi from time to time. He couldn't run, and he didn't report 5000 meters at first, but later saw that the list was temporarily changed.Jiang Yi didn't refuse the monitor's words just now, he thought, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

On the opposite side, Duan Qingxu glanced at him.
