Chapter 22: One moment of heaven, one moment of hell
In the grove, Xu Nianyi walked carefully, still hesitant to put any weight on her injured foot, but she didn't ask Xie Yanwen to carry her at school.
When passing by those pairs of mandarin ducks that had risen early, he noticed the strange looks they gave him, but he didn't pay much attention to them, just thinking that they were afraid of Xie Yanwen.
And she really wasn't fully awake yet, so she didn't want to walk any longer. Seeing an empty bench, she sat down, lowered her head and sighed, "I'm so sleepy."
Xie Yanwen sat down beside her, and seeing that she was so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes, he was a little puzzled: "Didn't you go to bed early last night?"
Xu Nianyi groaned, "No way, I got up to do my homework right after I called you. I was editing videos until almost four o'clock before I went to bed."
Xie Yanwen’s brows tightened instantly.
Doesn't this mean no sleep?
"What homework do you have now?"
Is the directing department so busy? Even busier than him who is pursuing a double degree.
Xu Nianyi's lips curled up when she heard that. Instead of answering him, she took out her camera from her schoolbag.
He placed the camera on his lap and fiddled with it with his eyes lowered.
Xie Yanwen looked at her but couldn't understand what she wanted to do, so he could only open the paper bag he brought and take out breakfast.
I bought milk and sandwiches as she requested.
She unscrewed the cap of the milk bottle and put the straw in. She was still fiddling with her camera. Xie Yanwen didn't think much about it. He held the milk bottle and fed the straw to her mouth: "Eat breakfast first."
Xu Nianyi didn't think this action was inappropriate. When the straw touched her lips, she said "oh" obediently and opened her mouth to bite the straw naturally.
She bit the straw gently as Xie Yanwen fed her, drank the milk slowly, and rubbed her eyes because she was too sleepy.
Xie Yanwen just looked at her quietly.
The early morning sunlight was soft, shining lightly through the gaps between the branches, shining on her hair and face, coating her with a layer of natural soft light, making her look very well-behaved and gentle.
Her drooping eyelashes were lightly stained with moisture due to sleepiness, making them sticky and soft-hearted.
Xie Yanwen's gaze slowly moved down, landing on her lips that were biting the straw.
Her lips are beautiful in shape, with delicate contours, like plump rose petals, and look soft and sweet.
At this moment, the soft and sweet petals were stained with milky white dew as she sucked milk...
Xie Yanwen stared at it for a few seconds before looking away in embarrassment.
She drank half the bottle and then let go of the straw, shaking her head and saying softly, "I don't want to drink anymore..."
The milk was hot and actually felt good in her stomach, but she really had no appetite.
Xie Yanwen didn't force her. He put the milk bottle aside and unwrapped the sandwich to feed her. "Here, do you want some more?"
Xu Nianyi nodded, and slowly bit the sandwich in his hand, all the while keeping her eyes lowered as she fiddled with the camera on her lap.
Xie Yanwen was not in a hurry and just held up the sandwich and fed her.
But she still ate a little half, then shook her head, "No more."
With such a big appetite, it’s no wonder she told him not to cause too much trouble yesterday.
Xie Yanwen withdrew his hand, packed up the sandwich and milk and put them back in his pocket. He turned around and saw that she was still fiddling with the camera on her lap.
I've been feeding her for more than ten minutes, and she hasn't fiddled with the food enough?
Xie Yanwen was a little confused: "So what homework do you have left to do? Are you still not doing it?"
Is it too late if we don’t do it now?
Xu Nianyi seemed to have come back to her senses. She said "Oh" slowly, and then slowly turned on the camera that she had been fiddling with all morning. Her whole body exuded a kind of slow-witted cuteness.
Xie Yanwen looked at her leisurely, curious about what her homework was, and then he heard her say slowly, "My homework is..."
She suddenly turned around, held up the camera and pointed the lens at him.
Then, Xie Yan heard her smile, still soft and hoarse but with a touch of triumph, "Slap you."
Xie Yanwen: “?”
In the camera screen, the boy was almost hit in the face. Because it was so sudden, he was completely confused and looked very stupid.
Xu Nianyi tilted her head smugly, looking at the face on the screen that was so close yet she could see without a single flaw.
His skin is very white and delicate, so smooth that you can't even see his pores. His eyelashes are very long, but not too curled. They are often worn lazily and lightly, making him look lazy.
But his eyes are very beautiful, amber-like, with a bright glow in them.
The nose is high and the lips...
Xu Nianyi licked the corner of his lips subconsciously.
Although his lips are thin, they are very soft and very comfortable to bite.
Xie Yanwen, who was being stared at by the camera, took several seconds to come back to his senses. His expression changed from surprise to helplessness. Finally, he laughed angrily and gritted his teeth. "You're teasing me again, aren't you?"
"Why, you won't let me play or take pictures?"
Xu Nianyi couldn't stop laughing, and even pushed the camera closer while speaking: "Then I'm going to take a picture."
He looked playful, and even his sleepiness seemed to have dissipated a little.
Xie Yanwen leaned back in amusement, his finger against the top of the camera to stop her from moving forward, his tone helpless: "Come on, don't go too far. If you move any closer, all you can see is your nostrils. Am I shameless?"
"Don't be so stingy. After all, our Fifth Young Master Xie is handsome even with his two nostrils."
Xie Yan heard a hint of sarcasm in the words "Thank you, Fifth Young Master".
He was both angry and amused, and in the end he couldn't help himself. He reached out his other hand and rubbed the top of her soft hair, "You're taking advantage of me!"
In this entire Haidu, besides her, who else would dare to point the camera at his face?
And she dared to call him stingy!
But her hair is really soft and feels very comfortable to touch. No wonder Ruan Yunheng likes to rub her head so much.
Thinking of that person, Xie Yanwen's eyes dimmed instantly, and his fingers rubbed her hair twice as if inadvertently, as if he wanted to cover up the warmth of that person's palm on her head and leave only his.
Xu Nianyi tilted his head at the right moment, snorted, and said in a domineering tone: "Then will you let me take the photo?"
I've already taken the photos and only come to ask if it's a bit late.
Xie Yanwen withdrew his hand and asked helplessly, "Is this really homework?"
"yes."
Xu Nianyi nodded: "This is my life homework."
"?"
Xie Yanwen didn't react, and then heard her say with a smile: "It's six thirty-five in the morning. We just turned nineteen and three days old. We haven't woken up yet, so we are silly, Ah Wen."
Xie Yanwen's heart trembled violently.
Awen.
This was the first time she called him that.
He could hear his own heartbeat, fast and anxious, while she continued, "But even though our Ah Wen is silly, she's still pretty. So when you see yourself like this when you're 40, will you be happier?"
She laughed as she spoke, but Xie Yanwen's heart slowly tightened, so tight that it hurt.
When I was 40 years old.
Could it be that he cheated on his wife when he was 40?
She is so cute, why would he cheat on her?
Is it because she said she is no longer young?
Xie Yanwen still found it difficult to accept himself as he was.
"Xu Nianyi." He called her softly.
Xu Nianyi hummed, then looked at him through the screen and muttered in dissatisfaction, "What's the matter? You're not allowed to take pictures again?"
She muttered, "I sacrificed an hour of sleep."
Xie Yanwen's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his voice became a little hoarse: "You didn't sleep, just to take a picture of me?"
“Not really.”
She shook her head and smiled faintly, a little bit obediently: "I still want to see you, I want you to accompany me."
Xie Yanwen clenched his fingers into a fist and squeezed his palm.
She had clearly called him a scumbag yesterday, but now she has figured it out.
He had been tormented all night, and at this moment he suddenly felt hope again.
"Xu Nianyi, we..."
"Even if we become family in the future, I still have to get back what you owe me, right?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Nianyi interrupted him.
She took back the camera that was against him, looked at it, and turned off the lens. When she looked up at him, her eyes curved with a smile: "I haven't made a date with you on campus at six in the morning yet, and now I'm finally satisfied."
“…”
One moment in heaven, the next moment in hell.
Xie Yanwen finally understood what was going on.
