Lin Ye took the apple and looked at it. "Why did you only buy two?"
Yu Xiangyang replied: "Someone gave it to me, just right for you two little brats to eat."
Lin also pouted and said unconvincedly: "I told you I'm not a brat! I'm going to be an adult soon!"
Seeing her like that, Yu Xiangyang wanted to tease her even more. "Okay, okay, you big brat who's about to become an adult, eat your apple quickly."
Lin Ye glared at him fiercely.
Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangnian were not at home, and Yu Xiangyang did not go into the house either. He was outside teaching Xiaojie to ride a bicycle with Lin Ye.
Half an hour later, Xiao Jie was sweating and panting and said, "Let's stop here for today and continue learning tomorrow."
Can this be considered teaching him to ride a bike?!
At the beginning, Lin Ye’s teaching was quite good. Lin Ye held the back seat of the bicycle to help him keep the balance, and he learned to pedal in front.
Later, when Yu Xiangyang got involved, the situation changed completely. Yu Xiangyang and Lin Ye started a bicycle racing, with him chasing behind.
If he keeps learning like this, his short legs will break!
The three of them put away their bicycles and prepared to go into the house, but Lin Ye stopped them, "Yu Xiangyang, don't go in yet. I have something to tell you."
Lin also asked Xiaojie to go home and wash up and go to bed first.
Yu Xiangyang jokingly said, "You can't even listen to your little friend? Are you trying to get me to stop playing with him?"
Lin Ye's expression was a little unnatural, "Yu Xiangyang, can you stop treating me like a child?"
Yu Xiangyang looked at Lin Ye's embarrassed look, laughed, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I won't treat you as a child."
Yu Xiangyang asked again: "What do you want to say?"
When asked this, Lin Ye's expression became even more unnatural, and he began to stutter, "I...I...I heard from my sister-in-law that you will be back in three days."
"Yeah." Yu Xiangyang waited for Lin Ye's next words.
Lin Ye hesitated, "I...I...want to ask if you have a boyfriend?"
Yu Xiangyang still hadn't realized what Lin Ye meant, and said nonchalantly, "No!"
Lin also said: "Then can you wait until I am an adult? My parents said that I can have a relationship after I become an adult."
After saying this, Lin, who was always carefree, blushed.
"I will be an adult after the New Year," she added.
Yu Xiangyang was shocked for a moment, but he quickly realized that he must have misunderstood.
He asked, "What conspiracy do you want me to wait for?"
Lin Ye: “…”
After a moment, she felt ashamed and angry. "What kind of conspiracy could I have?! I just like you! I fell in love with you the first time I saw you in the hospital!"
Yu Xiangyang was stunned.
Even if he was beaten to death, he would never have thought that Lin Ye actually had improper thoughts about him!
Yu Xiangyang opened his mouth slightly, stood there in a daze, and looked at Lin Ye in shock.
Lin Ye also looked at him hesitantly, waiting for his reply.
After a long while, Yu Xiangyang regained his composure and said seriously, "Lin Ye, I don't like you, and you shouldn't like me either! In my eyes, you're the same as Xiao Jie, still a child!"
He treated her as a brother and a child, but she actually wanted to be his girlfriend!
Lin Ye pouted in grievance, "You said you don't treat me like a child!"
Yu Xiangyang said, "Then I'll treat you as a brother! A brother like Cheng Jingmo! Your current task is to study hard and stop thinking about these trivial things. You'll meet someone you really like and who also likes you in the future."
After Yu Xiangyang finished speaking, he hurried into the house, fearing that Lin Ye would say something else.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing, and he didn't know whether the way he had handled it just now was appropriate.
Never mind!
Anyway, he has to make his attitude clear. He doesn't like Lin Ye, and he doesn't allow Lin Ye to like him!
In order to avoid embarrassment when seeing Lin Ye later, he quickly washed up and hid in the room, not daring to come out.
Lin Ye sat in the yard feeling lost, looking up at the sky.
As the night deepens, there are few stars in the sky, and they are not bright, with a sense of haziness and melancholy.
Cheng Jingmo also came back hand in hand with Xiangnian, and saw Lin still sitting in the yard so late.
"Lin Ye, why don't you go to bed so late?" Yu Xiangnian asked doubtfully.
Lin Ye's tone lacked his usual energy. "I want to be alone outside for a while."
Yu Xiangnian gave Cheng Jingmo a look that said "the little girl has something on her mind."
Lin was unwilling to say anything, and Yu Xiangnian did not ask any further questions, but simply said, "Then don't stay too late, you have to get up early for school tomorrow."
Lin Ye looked at Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang holding hands and talking and laughing as they walked into the house, feeling envious.
This is her ideal love.
When they are young, they are loving, respectful and supportive like Yu Xiangnian and Cheng Jingmo. When they are old, they are gentle and companionable like Song Huaiqian and Lin Yunyi.
She was adopted by Lin Yunyi when she was six years old. Since then, she has lived in a base in the northwest, where she studied and grew up.
There are many children of all ages in the base. Lin is also a girl, but she is fearless. When she first arrived there, she often fought with others and was even wilder than boys.
Song Huaiqian named her Lin Ye.
A few years ago, Song Huaiqian and his colleagues returned to Beijing to work, and Lin also followed them to Beijing to continue his studies.
Song Huaiqian often praised her for her talent in learning. She learned better than others with the same teacher and the same methods.
She was also very lucky, as she caught up with the resumption of the college entrance examination right after graduating from high school.
She wanted to stay with her parents and become a useful person to the country like Lin Yunyi.
She applied for the geology program at Kyoto University and was lucky enough to be admitted.
In the past few years, as she grew up and became more sensible, she realized how rare the relationship between Song Huaiqian and Lin Yunyi was.
In this era, every family has three or five children. If a woman is infertile, she will definitely be abandoned by the man.
But Lin Yunyi and Song Huaiqian have not had children for so many years. Song Huaiqian's attitude and feelings towards Lin Yunyi have not changed since Lin Ye can remember.
This is what the book says, holding your hand and growing old with you.
Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangnian returned home and did not see Yu Xiangyang.
"Auntie, Yu Xiangyang is not at home?" Yu Xiang asked casually.
Lin Yunyi said: "He went out for a while and just came back not long ago. He must be asleep."
A look of doubt flashed across Cheng Jingmo's eyes.
This is totally inconsistent with Yu Xiangyang's daily routine. He usually has endless energy, as if he had taken stimulants.
I am the last one to go to bed and the first one to get up every day. Why did you go to bed so early today?
The next morning.
As soon as Cheng Jingmo came down from the second floor, he bumped into Yu Xiangyang, who was carrying his backpack and quietly closing the door of the guest bedroom.
