Chapter 24 B-2

It was also that winter that Sang Li met Guo Yunhua for the first time. It was Chinese New Year, and she followed Xiang Ning to his grandma's house. At that time, she didn't expect that the famous soprano singer would sit in the living room and make dumplings. When she saw her enter the door, Guo Yunhua greeted her like an acquaintance: "Sang Li? Come here sit." Sang Li stood at the door in a daze, watching the beautiful woman in front of her smiling at her while making dumplings, and then shouted at Xiang Ning who was closing the door behind her: "Xiang Ning, bring Sang Li in and sit down."

She smiled at Sang Li: "Stay here to eat dumplings at night, shrimps. The shrimps I just bought this afternoon are all alive." Her smile was so gentle, against the warm lighting in the living room, it inexplicably made Sang Li's nose sore, and he almost couldn't help but want to call her "Mom". Mom——if you are still here, you still have to make dumplings every Chinese New Year, right?In that way, can I sit next to you, make dumplings with you, chat with you, and talk about small topics and cares that can only be discussed between mother and daughter? If you were still here, you would buy me new clothes, attend parent-teacher meetings for me, beat me and scold me when I was angry, but laugh happily and cry when I won honors... all of these, right?

Sang Li's eyes turned red, and she couldn't help lowering her head.The light in the living room was not bright, no one could see her sadness, but Xiang Ning walked in, took her by the shoulders, pulled her to sit opposite Guo Yunhua, and said to her: "Don't be nervous, Xiaoli, my mother is not a monster. .” While talking, he smiled at his mother: "Really, Professor Guo?" Guo Yunhua had flour all over his hands, smiled and wiped a dab on his naughty son's face, then said to Sang Li apologetically, "I'm sorry, Sang Li, I didn't clean it up the first time I saw you, instead it was a mess."

While making dumplings, she instructed Xiang Ning to bring Sang Li various snacks, and then asked Sang Li, "Want to learn to sing?" Sang Li nodded. Guo Yunhua said seriously: "However, learning to sing is a very hard thing." Sang Li nodded again: "I know, I'm not afraid." Guo Yunhua sighed softly: "Actually, singing is not as simple as I imagined. There are so many people who like to sing, how many of them can become famous? Most of them have not been unknown all their lives. If singing is for the sake of being famous, then I have to persuade them to sing." You'd better give up."

Sang Li lowered his head: "I feel happy singing, I like singing." She raised her head with a serious expression: "I am not afraid of hardships, because I like it, and if I decide to learn it, I will definitely learn it well." Guo Yunhua looked at Sang Li with a slightly moved expression.After a long time, he smiled and said, "Okay, let's work hard together!" In the evening, Sang Li stayed for dinner.It was the first time she met Xiang Ning's grandma, the old man was very kind, took her hand and muttered: "Why don't I have such a beautiful girl."

Xiang Ning made trouble while eating dumplings: "Grandma, don't you have two daughters?" Grandma glared at Ning: "My two daughters gave me two grandchildren. Why can't I have a granddaughter if I want one?" Guo Yunhua also smiled: "Mom, the old Xiang family still wants a son. If you want a granddaughter, you might as well want a granddaughter-in-law." She patted her husband next to her, "Isn't it?" Xiang Ning's father, Xiang Haoran, looks dignified but has a good temper.He was tilting his head to watch "News Network" on TV, and when he heard his wife's roll call, he nodded: "Yes, you are right."

Guo Yunhua stared: "What's wrong? Then if I give birth to a daughter, you won't let me in?" Xiang Haoran turned around biting the dumpling, and shook his head again in a daze: "Oh, that's not right." Guo Yunhua was angry, and his grandma smiled and patted her daughter: "Yunhua, don't bully Haoran all the time, honest people can't bully you. Besides, Haoran controls millions of people, making you stare here and there every day." Guo Yunhua looked at Ning: "Son, is your father an honest man?" Xiang Ning suppressed her smile: "Mom, with you here, my dad doesn't dare to be dishonest. Otherwise, if you find out, just your voice, hehe..."

Finally, Guo Yunhua couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand to poke Ning's forehead: "They say son and mother, you little traitor!" In the harmonious atmosphere, Sang Li could see the magic. She looked enviously at the happy family in front of her: a kind and kind old man, a beautiful and kind mother, a serious but kind father... This kind of home is the real sense of "home". After dinner, Xiang Ning sent Sang Li home. Because it was Chinese New Year, firecrackers sounded all around, walking on the road, occasionally naughty children threw "whip whips" in the middle of the road, and the crisp sound startled Sang Li.

She was afraid of firecrackers since she was a child, and subconsciously shrank away from Xiang Ning. Xiang Ning held her hand tightly and smiled slightly: "Xiao Li, are you so timid?" Before she finished speaking, Sang Li sharply saw a few boys in front of her preparing to light a string of firecrackers hanging on a tree. She screamed "Ah" and hid behind Xiang Ning.Xiang Ning was taken aback, the firecrackers in front of him had exploded "crackling", and at the same time, several other people not far away also lit the firecrackers in their hands, and the surrounding area was filled with a strong sulfur smell.

Xiang Ning turned around and saw Sang Li lowering his head, closing his eyes, and covering his ears tightly with his hands, as if he was very scared.Xiang Ning smiled and stretched out his hands to cover Sang Li's hands. Sang Li warmed his hands and opened his eyes to look at Xiang Ning, just in time to see gorgeous fireworks slowly blooming in the night sky behind him: bright purple flowers bursting in the air, Then it turned into dots of silver stars, twinkling and falling, such a beautiful moment, Sang Li stared blankly, almost forgot to breathe. At that moment, only the light of fireworks remained in the sky and the earth, shining on Sang Li's face.The beautiful girl's eyes widened, and the eyes were full of brilliance. Xiang Ning just looked at it like this, and kept looking into her heart.

It was also at that moment that the shadows of the two of them were stretched by the dim street lamps, and the crackling sound of firecrackers blocked all the sounds around them. The cold winter wind could not break the burning love and pity of the young man. He lowered his head and kissed her gently. The girl in front of me. In an instant, blood rushed to Sangli's head with a "boom"! Almost subconsciously, she widened her eyes, clenched her teeth, and her whole body began to tremble.Her legs were weak and she wanted to fall down, but Xiang Ning's arms held her waist tightly.She leaned back more and more, but the boy in front of her made a little effort and pulled her back from the precarious situation.At that moment, Sang Li's consciousness was blurred, but he clearly knew that something was broken in his heart - was it Xiang Ning's god-like statue?Or is it the shell of the "brother" for a long time? However, she also felt so clearly: the emotions rushing out from the bottom of her heart, with a little excitement, a little grievance, a little gratitude, and a little intimacy, non-stop, roaring.Her whole body was trembling, but Xiang Ning supported her with one hand, and gently covered her eyes with the other.The moment the world darkened, only the beating of her own heart could be heard in her ears. His lips, so soft, with the boy's unique cool and green breath, together with the hard stubble, pierced into her life... That night, Sang Li suffered from insomnia. She hid alone in the dark night, behind the floral curtain, and could hear Tian Miao's even breathing, but she couldn't fall asleep with her eyes wide open. In the dark night, as soon as she closes her eyes, she will think of Xiang Ning's lips, the light and soft touch, she never knew that the boy's breath will have a light smell of grass, and his eyes are shining brighter than fireworks. His hand held her waist tightly, but it also trembled slightly. She turned over in the dark and buried her face deeply in the pillow.She put her hand under the pillow, and she could still feel a few crunchy pieces of paper, which were letters written by Xiang Ning to herself. Sang Li's heart was still beating "thumping", she wanted to say something, but she didn't know who to say it to.She didn't quite know how she felt at this moment, maybe she was a little excited, maybe a little scared, maybe... It is beyond words. What does Xiang Ning mean? If you don't like it, won't you kiss?If you kiss, does it mean you like it? Does he like himself?If you like it, why have you never said it? Why kiss yourself if you don't like it? Ahhhhhhhhhh...so messy! Sang Li pulled his hair hard, turned over hard again, and the bed board under him made a "creaking" sound. "Damn it! Are you still sleeping or not?!" Tian Miao's scolding was suddenly heard outside the curtain, and Sang Li realized that he was not the only one in the room. "Are you mentally ill?" Tian Miao also turned over heavily, muttered and fell asleep, Sang Li tilted her head, looking at the direction that belonged to Tian Miao outside the curtain, a little absent-minded. After entering high school, Tian Miao also faced the high school entrance examination. In fact, the chances of the two meeting each other became less and less. Sang Li goes to self-study at 9:30 every night, and usually studies for a while before returning home. When she gets home, it is already 10:30, she hastily washed and goes to bed, and wakes up at 5:30 the next morning to go to school for morning reading... Her I don’t eat three meals a day at home, and the time I spend at home every day is only seven hours of sleep. In the eyes of everyone, Sang Li is a good student who goes out early and returns late. She is the first to arrive at school every morning and the last to lock the door of the class at night. This kind of diligence is enough to prevent her from being criticized by the teacher even if her grades decline.Moreover, at the parent meeting, the teacher occasionally praised her for being a stupid bird. But no one knew that she did this only to minimize the time she spent meeting Tian Miao. Incidentally, even Chang Qing and Sang Yuecheng haven't spoken to Sang Li for a long time. Sang Li didn't think there was anything wrong with this, anyway, she had long regarded herself as an outsider in the family: Sang Yuecheng didn't talk to Sang Li much since she was a child, and now she has nothing to say; The stepmother, who can't beat or scold other people's daughters, naturally has her difficulties; Tian Miao's hostility towards Sang Li has reached the point where even if they meet, they treat her like nothing, and the occasional talk is usually the prelude to a quarrel, so she doesn't It's better to speak than to speak... In the dark night, Sang Li recalled the warmth of Xiang Ning's family, so envious. In that way, is "home"? I also want to have such a home.It would be great if Xiang Ning's mother was his own mother, but would Xiang Ning's mother become his own mother?Then two people have to get married and live together, right?Ah... Marriage... God, how far away it is... Who said that Xiang Ning is willing to marry you?Shameless... Sang Li covered his face and smiled foolishly in the dark, thinking: Xiang Ning, do you like me?I also like you very much, but why have I never heard you say that you like me, then do you like me or not... It was already very late at night, but Sang Li still couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning.She didn't know that Xiang Ning also suffered from insomnia that night, and finally fell asleep in a daze, but woke up very early.He actually regretted it a little, and felt that he had endured it for so long, why didn't he hold it back?Sang Li is still a little girl, will she be troubled by her behavior, will it affect her study and future? At that time, they didn't know that Nalan Xingde had already described it: "The city of moonset has not yet crowed, and it is too early to wake up without sleep."Baoshuang Garden is timidly dressed, with a quiet heart, surrounded by red circles, who will know this feeling... It's a secret love, but the little thoughts that are anxious and speculative, tossing and hesitating, are just like them. After all, everyone is young. When you are young, those pure and sincere feelings are such a precious collection.And such a wonderful taste, as each other grows up day by day, is unique in this life.
