Chapter 23 Chapter 23
The co-pilot's weak and even breathing came, and Ji Tunan knew that Xue Zhining had fallen asleep.
After taking the high-speed train for so long this morning, and being very excited this afternoon, Ji Tunan knew Xue Zhining was tired.
However, Ji Tunan couldn't sleep by himself.
He turned his head, lay on his side, and then looked at Xue Zhining, his eyes were very gentle, if Xue Zhining looked at this look, he would definitely be addicted to it.
How should I describe it, like the sudden sunshine in the cold winter, or like the first ray of spring breeze blowing on a pool of spring water that has just melted.
Such tenderness, Ji Tunan himself did not notice.
Ji Tunan's thoughts drifted out of the window all the way to the night sky. Accompanied by the starry sky, he seemed to go back six years ago, to the summer when he first saw his own light.
At that time, Ji Tunan was still a teenager, just 16 years old.
In that midsummer, he remarried with his mother Liu Limei to Wu'an Town on the edge of Dingning City. This is a thin and thin town living on the edge of the big city Dingning.
Like an unremarkable abandoned child abandoned by Dingning, Ji Tunan also started his already broken life here.
Not long after arriving here, Ji Tunan started looking for a part-time job by himself.Fortunately, Wu'an Town is very close to Dingning City, and it only takes one hour to get there by bus. Ji Tunan started to run around every day like this.
When he took the bus every day, through the window, Ji Tunan could see a large park between Wu'an Town and the best villa area in Dingning, and this bus happened to pass by the entrance of the park.
The gate of the park is luxuriously decorated, Ji Tunan thinks it should be a place for the rich people who live in villas to relax.
But Ji Tunan, who was still very innocent at the time, couldn't imagine how rich people would go to the park that looked luxurious to him. They just disdainfully thought that the park was a charity for the people in the nearby villages.
One day after finishing work in Dingning, Ji Tunan saw that it was still early, and he didn't want to go back to the home that didn't belong to him so early, so he got off the car at the gate of the park ahead of time.
Ji Tunan felt that it was not that hot today, and there was even a breeze blowing from time to time.
He walked into the park aimlessly. Just after entering the park, there was a large fir tree growing very lushly. Many fir trees were planted together, forming a large area for people to enjoy the shade.
Ji Tunan felt that it was really cool here, much more comfortable than his home without air conditioning, no wonder there were so many old men and old ladies playing here, sitting in twos and threes on the ponytail and doing homework.
Going further in, Ji Tunan smelled a familiar but unnamed fragrance, but at this moment his vision suddenly widened, and a large expanse of plump and blooming purple came into his eyes.
It turned out that there was such a large field of lavender hidden here. At first glance, Ji Tunan felt that he could not see the end of the lavender field.
After waking up from the hot summer temperature, even the air exudes a strong aroma of lavender, adding an alternative sweetness to the already romantic summer.
Ji Tunan had never seen lavender before. He only glanced at it on TV, but he didn't expect to see such a large lavender bush, which was so shocking and beautiful.
He just stood quietly by the side of the road with his hands in his trouser pockets, as if he had merged into the lavender.
While he was in a trance, the voices of the other two teenagers broke into Ji Tunan's ears.Ji Tunan took his hand out of his pocket and followed the sound to find it.
I found a path extending into the lavender field, and two little boys were playing with a small camera.
"Luoluo, give me back my camera!" The boy in white short-sleeves chased after the boy with the camera.
The boy with the camera trotted ahead, "If I don't give it to you, I won't give it to you, what will happen if you let me play?"
The two chased back and forth, and stopped when they felt tired, and found Ji Tunan standing aside.
"Let's go play with that big brother, he doesn't seem happy." The white short-sleeved boy said to the little boy next to him with an innocent face.
"Let's go, let him play with us." The boy called Luoluo agreed.
Similarly, Ji Tunan noticed two little boys walking towards him.
Soon, the two boys walked up to him, and Ji Tunan found that they were only about 13 years old, but they were wearing famous brand clothes that everyone knew, and they were holding a valuable camera in their hands.
Ji Tunan thought this was the child of the family in the villa area.But why did they come to him, Ji Tunan looked down at the clothes he bought from the vegetable market, and felt for the first time what class was.
"Big brother, why are you unhappy?" The boy in the white short sleeves spoke first, looking up at Ji Tunan.
Ji Tunan lowered his head slightly and looked at the little boy. Although he could be seen from a distance, the little boy looked good-looking, but upon closer inspection, he was even more beautiful.
His depressed mood and exhausted body from part-time work improved a little at this moment.
"No." Ji Tunan didn't know how to answer, he didn't know how to get along with friends.
He never had any friends before, because of his own reasons, he often walked alone in the previous school, and no one wanted to get close to him.
But this boy who was younger than him was so sensitive, he saw through his feelings, and even took the initiative to care about him.Ji Tunan felt a strange feeling in his heart.
"Nonsense, big brother, you are just unhappy." The boy in white short-sleeves was very firm. He firmly believed that Ji Tunan was just unhappy, and stubbornly exposed Ji Tunan's heart.
Ji Tunan looked at the little boy's frowning brows and tightly closed lips, and found that the firmness of this boy with a childish face was actually cute at this moment.
He laughed, and unexpectedly reached out to touch the boy's hair, which was very soft and smooth.Ji Tunan raised his eyebrows, the hand felt surprisingly good, and wanted to rub it again.
"Big brother, take a photo with us, how beautiful this place is!" The white short-sleeved boy wanted to invite Ji Tunan to take a photo together, he thought that this way the big brother could divert his attention and be happier.
"Yes." The boy named Luoluo also invited.
Looking at the expectant eyes of the two boys, Ji Tunan suddenly didn't know how to answer, because he didn't know how to play with the camera, and he didn't know how to get along with others.
"I don't know how to play with the camera." Ji Tunan replied with a little inferiority in his tone.
The two boys naturally didn't hear it.
"It's okay, big brother, we can teach you. Come on!" The white short-sleeved boy was very enthusiastic, and took Ji Tunan's hand to take him to the place where they took pictures just now.
That place is deep in the lavender field, which is really suitable for taking pictures.
"Let's go!" Luoluo shouted excitedly, following the boy in white.
Holding hands by the boy, Ji Tunan also trotted to the place where the two took pictures.
It happened to be a small piece of flat land without lavender, and the two of them had spread a picnic cloth with some snacks on it, as if they were here for a picnic.
The little boy in white clothes took Ji Tunan's hand and sat down, then fiddled with the camera.
"Brother, look, this button is the shutter. You can see the photos you have taken on this screen. Just press the shutter here to take photos."
The little boy earnestly taught Ji Tunan to know every place of the camera, and looked at Ji Tunan from time to time to check whether he was listening.
"Yes." Ji Tunan replied, he felt that this little boy was really enthusiastic and serious.
Unconsciously, my attention was really diverted, and I relaxed a lot for a while, and my mood was much better, and I temporarily forgot about those unhappy things at home.
"Brother, let's practice and take a picture for me." The boy in white turned his head and said to Ji Tunan, and handed the camera to Ji Tunan.
Ji Tunan was holding the camera, a little at a loss. He was afraid of breaking the camera, and his family would not be able to pay for it. Besides, the little boy was too enthusiastic, and he was a little uncomfortable.
The little boy posed for himself and looked at Ji Tunan, waiting for Ji Tunan to press the shutter.
Ji Tunan held the camera, slowly thinking about the things the boy gave him just now, picked up the camera, and pressed the shutter on the smiling boy.
"Hmph, I want to take pictures with you too." Luoluo thought that someone could finally take pictures for herself and her best friend, so she shouted that she wanted to take pictures too.
"Come on, come on, I will reluctantly take a picture with you!" The boy in white clothes agreed proudly.
Watching the interaction between the two little boys, Ji Tunan suddenly envied them. He had never had such a childhood.
He didn't find himself smiling, picked up the camera, and continued to take pictures of the two little boys.
Ji Tunan soon had a good time with the two little boys, especially the white short-sleeved boy who liked to cling to himself, and Ji Tunan also liked this little boy very much.
The purpose of meeting is to separate, and soon the sky will be dark, and the three of them will go home.
"Big brother, when will you come here to play again? I want to play with you in the future!" The little boy in white clothes asked Ji Tunan.
Ji Tunan didn't know when he would come to play again.So he shook his head at the two of them.
"I don't know." Ji Tunan replied truthfully, he still has a part-time job, and he really doesn't know when he can come back to play again.
The three parted ways, and Ji Tunan returned home.
The night was getting late, Ji Tunan listened to Xue Zhining's snoring, closed his eyes, he didn't know whether those thoughts just now were memories or dreams.
Slowly, Ji Tunan also relaxed, and gradually fell asleep, and fell asleep with Xue Zhining.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Ji Tunan felt that his eyes were a little glaring, and it must be dawn.
Opening his eyes, it was indeed dawn, and it was still a sunny day. He turned his head and looked at the co-pilot, Xue Zhining was still sleeping. At this moment, Ji Tunan felt that his happiness was unreal.
The weather is bright, the beauty is by your side, the autumn wind is blowing slightly, and a new day is about to begin.
