"If childhood sweethearts" haven't even kissed yet...
It's probably because I think about it during the day and dream about it at night.
Shi Miao hugged the blanket, and unusually, instead of falling asleep immediately and waking up to dawn, she had a dream.
That was when we returned to the living room after playing in the snow.
Jiang Yingxu washed and cut the fruit, took it out, placed it on the dining table, and took out a tissue to wipe the water droplets from his fingers.
His hands are very beautiful.
Her nails were long and slender with a cool white color and well-defined joints. They were neatly and rounded, with a very light pink tint.
After being rolled over by water droplets, it becomes even more refreshingly clear, like a flawless jade carving.
As the paper was wiped, the long fingers opened and closed, and the faint blue veins on the back of the hand undulated slightly, like creeping vines.
Shi Miao glanced at it a few more times.
Jiang Yingxu misunderstood her. A hint of indulgent smile appeared in his dark eyes. He threw the tissue into the trash can under the table, and naturally reached out to pick up a small fork from the fruit plate. He then forked a piece of apple and held it to her lips.
Actually, she was just admiring him; she didn't want him to feed her...
Shi Miao was too embarrassed to explain. While wondering to herself if she was really that lazy, she tilted her head and took a bite of the apple.
Last night, on Christmas Eve, both of them received a lot of apples.
Some of it was given to the Yan family chef to be processed into jam, and some was kept in the kitchen as a snack.
It's crispy and sweet.
It's a good apple.
Shi Miao chewed on a piece of apple, then urged, "You eat some too."
Jiang Yingxu leaned against the table, hummed in agreement, and forked himself a piece of apple.
The pale lower lip glistened with juice, and her Adam's apple bobbed up and down with each chew and swallow.
In reality, Shi Miao is just a figure of speech.
But this was her dream.
So, she boldly grabbed Jiang Yingxu's wrist and, under the boy's slightly lowered and questioning gaze, pulled him in front of her.
Because she would occasionally go to Jiang Yingxu's place to shower and sleep, the toiletries in his bathroom were the same as hers, her favorite creamy nut scent.
They are exactly the same.
But in Jiang Yingxu, it appears even more ethereal and austere, as if what falls on the verdant bamboo branches is not frosting but cool white snow.
Cats are animals with a sense of smell.
She twitched her nose, took a light sniff, and looked up at him.
Her gaze slowly swept over his deep brow bone, across his high nose bridge, and finally landed on his pale lips.
They're completely bewitched.
They seemed to be bewitched.
She propped herself up slightly and moved closer.
You could almost hear his soft, slow breaths and count the long, straight eyelashes he lowered.
"bell--"
The alarm clock rang loudly, suddenly waking Shi Miao.
The moment she opened her eyes, her consciousness was still immersed in the dream. Her hazy gaze stared at the ceiling for several seconds before she suddenly realized what was happening.
Was it a dream?!
Perhaps because she woke up too early, Shi Miao's mind was still blank.
She sat up and remained still for a while.
She subconsciously raised her hand and touched the corner of her lips.
But we haven't even kissed yet...
Um?
Isn't that a misconception?
Shi Miao hesitated before getting out of bed, hesitated before washing up, and hesitated before eating breakfast.
Then I pushed the door open.
Jiang Yingxu had just reached the door and slightly raised his hand to press the fingerprint unlock button.
The winter sun was dim, with only a few faint rays of dawn visible on the horizon.
The warm glow of the corridor lights overhead outlined his figure, casting a few slivers of light into his eyes, which looked on with a hint of surprise.
The hand that was originally opening the door turned in another direction, calmly taking the schoolbag from Shi Miao's hand and hanging it on its arm.
Jiang Yingxu asked in a low voice, "Why are you up so early today?"
In the past, Shi Miao would doze off for another ten minutes or so after the alarm rang, and then, wrapped in a blanket and still half asleep, she would say "Come in" when Jiang Yingxu came upstairs and knocked on the door.
Then Jiang Yingxu went to the bathroom to get hot water and squeeze toothpaste for her.
After Shi Miao put on her coat and slippers and came in, I went downstairs to prepare breakfast for her, trying to ensure that the cat could sleep as much as possible.
Shi Miao took a deep breath of the crisp morning air and replied, "I just woke up and didn't go back to sleep."
She followed Jiang Yingxu's steps and walked towards the door.
Suddenly, she lightly hopped forward and grabbed Jiang Yingxu's hand, which was hanging by his side.
The boy paused, then lowered his gaze.
Shi Miao kept a straight face and spoke solemnly to him, "I have a secret."
Jiang Yingxu nodded in agreement, "Then can you tell me?"
Kittens don't have any big secrets.
What's hidden away are all incredibly cute little things.
Last time it was because I secretly hid a piece of chocolate; the time before that was because I scratched the hem of Shi Dai's clothes while playing wildly in cat form; and the time before that was because I couldn't resist breaking a rose bush...
I didn't hold it in for more than two days before I told him everything at once.
But this time...
Shi Miao remained resolute and unwavering in her stance.
She was unusually happy for some reason, her soft red lips curved into a smile, and the last syllable of her voice rose high like a kitten's tail.
I can't tell you now.
"Later."
I'll tell you later.

"Meow Meow Diary"
Cats have a big secret.
It seems the cat has taken a liking to Jiang Yingxu.
Otherwise, why would I want to kiss him on the lips in my dreams, and why would I still want to kiss him when I see him in the morning?
You're still young, so the cat won't bother you for now. But once you graduate, the cat will definitely give you a good beating!
