Chapter 17: If you have a crush on someone...
Song Yu picked up the phone and took a look at it, then almost anxiously signaled to Zhou Ci to wait a moment, and ran away with the phone. It didn't take any thought to know who the call was from.
Zhou Ci glanced at Song Yu in the distance, closed the car door silently, asked the driver to turn the car around first, and then sat in the car waiting for Song Yu. He was very quiet and did not communicate with the driver. He just glanced in the direction of Song Yu from time to time. The longer the time, the quieter he became.
Song Yu took a few breaths to calm down, and when the ringing was about to end, he hesitated and answered the phone: "Why are you calling me? You finally remembered me?"
Shen Zhiyan laughed on the other end of the phone, "I heard you were looking for me, so I was so anxious, so I came to report that I was safe."
Song Yu's toes rubbed the green grass beneath his feet, and he said insincerely, "Who's looking for you? Don't be so self-indulgent. I'm having so much fun without you."
Shen Zhiyan laughed glumly, "So what did you play?"
"We arrived in Hulunbuir today. There are so many cattle and sheep here. The sky is clear and the air is fresh." Song Yu reported his itinerary to Shen Zhiyan.
"Have you seen the sunset over the Morigele River? I heard the sunset there is very beautiful." Shen Zhiyan asked.
"I saw it, it was really beautiful, and many people were shocked and screamed."
"Who did you watch it with? Summer Solstice?" Shen Zhiyan asked again.
"How does Xia Xia have time to accompany me? She is so attached to her boyfriend that they can't be separated. How can she have time to care about me? She is a woman who values love over friendship." Song Yu complained.
Chen Zhiyan laughed again, "You watched the sunset alone? Is our Ru Ru so pitiful?"
"No, I watched it with my friends." Song Yu said naturally.
"Zhou Ci?" Shen Zhiyan's smile faded slightly. "He's gone too?"
"Aren't they on summer vacation? It's a rare opportunity for them to come out and play, and you're not here, so I asked him to come along." Song Yu answered cautiously.
"Our Ru Ru is really good at managing time. A master of time management? Huh?" Shen Zhiyan's tone was a little ambiguous.
"Chen Zhiyan, are you angry?" Song Yu asked, "Can't you just get along with him? Didn't you praise him before? Besides, you're not here, so you have no right to control who I play with."
Shen Zhiyan was a little amused. "I recognize his ability, but I recognize that he gets along with you. These are two different things." He sighed, "Ruru, when will you understand..."
"Of course I understand." Song Yu said sweetly.
She was not stupid, but Shen Zhiyan's attitude towards Zhou Ci made her a little confused. Zhou Ci was her adopted brother, and she only regarded Zhou Ci as her brother. She couldn't understand why Shen Zhiyan was so wary of a 15-year-old child.
"I'll be back in two days." Shen Zhiyan didn't say much.
"Where are you?" Song Yu felt a little tired of holding her hand up, so she changed her hand to hold the phone.
"I'm in Murmansk."
"Why did you go there? You can't see the aurora in June, right?"
“Yes, there are few people here and it’s quiet.” Shen Zhiyan said.
"Why can't I get in touch with you?" Song Yu began to interrogate. "Why did you go so far away by yourself? You didn't answer my calls or messages, and you just disappeared without a word. Do you know how worried I was when I couldn't get in touch with you? I thought something had happened to you."
"The signal here is not good, so I didn't bring my phone. I'm sorry to make you worry about me." Shen Zhiyan explained, paused, and then asked: "You can't find me, are you worried?"
"What do you think?" Song Yu asked back, "You've never disappeared like this before, how can I not be anxious? Shen Zhiyan, is there really nothing wrong?"
"Don't think too much. What could happen to me?" Shen Zhiyan smiled, his tone a little rogue, "That's it for now. My phone is running out of battery. I'll talk when I get back." His tone meant to hang up the phone, but he didn't move, waiting for Song Yu to hang up first.
"Oh!" Song Yu hesitated, holding the phone and unwilling to hang up, and asked hesitantly: "Chen Zhiyan, when will you come back?"
Shen Zhiyan smiled knowingly, “I’ll do it as soon as possible and won’t keep Ru Ru waiting for long.”
"You said we might still be here in two days. Will you come directly here? Or go back to City B first?" Song Yu asked.
"I'll take a connecting flight and fly directly to your side."
"Then I'll wait for you here." Song Yu took a reassurance pill, finally satisfied, and was willing to hang up the phone, "Goodbye, Chen Zhiyan!"
"Ruru, see you in two days."
After hearing Shen Zhiyan's reply, Song Yu no longer hesitated. He hung up the phone happily and skipped back.
Seeing Song Yu come back with a happy face, Zhou Ci already knew what was going on. He deliberately asked, "Sister, do you seem very happy?"
Song Yu touched his face and said in a good mood: "Is it that obvious?"
Zhou Ci nodded, "It's obvious."
"Haha, okay, I'm really happy. That bastard Shen Zhiyan finally called me back." She hummed a tune while fastening her seat belt and said to the driver, "Uncle, let's go quickly. I suddenly feel very hungry and want to eat skewers. I think I can eat a whole cow."
Zhou Ci echoed beside him: "Then let's go eat. Give me whatever your sister can't finish, and I'll be responsible for finishing the rest." He didn't ask Song Yu why she was so happy.
Song Yu laughed: "Haha, okay, give the leftovers to the kids."
They checked into the yurt that night. Song Yu was in a good mood and seemed to have a better appetite. She ate a lot of skewers and drank alcohol for the first time.
Zhou Ci did as he said, he cleared out all the skewers that Song Yu hadn't finished. He also wanted to drink the rest of Song Yu's wine, but Song Yu stopped him and refused to let him drink it.
Song Yu was already a little drunk at this time. Her hands holding the bottle were dizzy, and it seemed that the bottle in her arms would fall to the ground in the next second. She raised her bright red face, her tongue was tied, and said to Zhou Ci: "Little... friend, you... can't drink..."
Zhou Ci looked at her and pulled the bottle of wine out of her arms. When it didn't move, he coaxed her softly: "Okay, I promise sister, I won't drink."
Song Yu finally relaxed and let Zhou Ci take the bottle away and put it back on the table: "When... you come of age... you can drink..."
"Yeah!" Zhou Ci replied softly, "Sister is drunk. Can I take her back to bed?"
"Is it... late?" Song Yu was drunk, his brain was a little dull and he couldn't react. He spoke slowly, "Then... go back to sleep..."
Zhou Ci helped Song Yu up easily. He was tall, so he put his arm around Song Yu's shoulders, allowing Song Yu to lean comfortably on his arm without feeling tired at all.
After being blown by the night wind for a while, Song Yu sobered up a little. At this angle, Song Yu could see the sky of the prairie by slightly tilting his head: "The sky here is so beautiful, there are so many stars at night."
Zhou Ci followed Song Yu's gaze, looked up at the sky, and finally shook his head: "No, my sister's eyes are more beautiful."
"Really?" Song Yu replied casually. She didn't know if she understood what he meant. She rubbed her head and asked Zhou Ci in confusion, "Little friend, why do I feel so dizzy? It seems like the stars in the sky are spinning."
"Sister, this is your first time drinking and you didn't control yourself well. You got yourself drunk, but don't worry, I checked on my phone. Go back and get some sleep. You'll be fine tomorrow. You didn't drink much."
"Oh!" Drunk Song Yu was very well-behaved.
Song Yu returned to the yurt and fell asleep immediately. He had a good night's sleep. When he woke up the next day, it was just as Zhou Ci said, without the headache and discomfort of a hangover.
She stretched and picked up her phone to see that Xia Zhi had sent her a message on WeChat, reminding her that a classmate's girlfriend had a birthday today and asked her to prepare a birthday present in advance.
This male classmate is Xia Zhi's friend and has a good relationship with Xia Zhi. Xia Zhi has brought Song Yu to play with him a few times, but they are not particularly familiar with each other, and he doesn't even know his girlfriend.
Since he was away from home and had nothing prepared, Song Yu thought about it and decided to give a bouquet of flowers, and then go to the jewelry store to choose a chain. It would be difficult to give other gifts if the relationship was not close enough.
After reading the messages on his phone, Song Yu got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. He was so drunk last night that he fell asleep immediately. He didn't feel uncomfortable when he was asleep, but he could not stand it when he was awake.
When she went out in a fresh outfit, Zhou Ci also came out from the opposite side, and they smiled at each other.
After breakfast, since Zhou Ci had no other plans, Song Yu took Zhou Ci to the jewelry store to choose a rose gold slim waist bracelet.
After coming out of the gold shop, there was a flower market nearby. Song Yu walked around the market and finally chose the fragrant lilies. He discussed the packaging style with the boss and agreed on the time for flower delivery. When he turned around, he saw Zhou Ci staring at a place.
"Little boy, what are you looking at?" Song Yu followed Zhou Ci's gaze and saw that the vendors over there were unloading the newly arrived jasmine flowers. A large area of jasmine flowers was unloaded from the truck, which was indeed quite spectacular.
"Sister, why didn't you send me this kind of flowers? I think this kind of flowers looks better."
"This is jasmine." Song Yu said with a smile, "You can't just give this flower away casually."
"Why?" Zhou Ci turned his head.
"Because jasmine represents implicit love." Song Yu smiled, "Little friend, if you have a crush on someone, give her jasmine. If she understands the language of flowers, she will definitely understand the meaning of your gift of jasmine."
She pointed to the lilies behind her and said, "The flower language of lilies is great love, and lilies represent purity. I chose lilies because I'm giving it to a girl. This girl is my friend's girlfriend, and I wish my friend and his girlfriend a great and pure love."
"Hidden love? Secret love? Does jasmine represent secret love?" Zhou Ci asked seriously.
"Haha, that's right!" Song Yu glanced at the time, "Let's go and find a place to have lunch."
After going outside, Song Yu called Xia Zhi. He waited for a long time before the other party picked up. His voice was hoarse, and it was obvious that he was still asleep. "Um, Ru Ru?"
Song Yu was helpless: "It's almost noon, you haven't woken up yet?"
"Well, it was too late. I closed my eyes only when it was almost dawn." Xia Zhi said weakly, "What's the matter?"
"I was going to ask you if you wanted to go out for lunch together, but forget it, just go back to sleep."
After hanging up the phone, Song Yu turned to Zhou Ci and said helplessly, "It seems that there are only two of us eating lunch. There is nothing we can do. They all have families with them, leaving only us two siblings alone."
Zhou Ci was very happy in his heart. No one disturbed him. His sister was his alone. "It doesn't matter. I'm happy to be with my sister no matter what."
