She has always wanted to have a puppy of her own, but her father and mother disagree.
It is said that having a pet will affect her academic performance.
So she especially likes that little puppy.
It likes to rub its head lazily against the palm of her hand like this.
It was not a rare species. She picked it up next to a trash can on the side of the road after school.
An ordinary Chinese pastoral dog.
It's really small.
When Yu Xinghe picked it up, it was only as big as her hand.
The little girl's hands were slender and soft, gently wrapping around the trembling little body.
The limbs are short and small, the pads are pink and soft, and the eyes are closed.
If it weren't for its faint humming, one would think it was a thrown away toy.
She felt distressed and angry.
Why would the dog owner be so cruel to abandon such a small puppy?
But at the same time, she thought of herself.
Isn't it the same for me?
Although I have parents, they are useless.
Perhaps out of sympathy, she resolutely took her home.
Even when Zhou Jingyan suggested that she could keep her in his home, she did not agree.
The little girl is very proud in her heart.
She would take care of it herself.
So she secretly covered the box with cushions and hid it.
I even secretly put it in my schoolbag and took it to school during class.
During the break, I found an empty corner of the corridor, took out the bottle and fed it.
She watched it grow little by little, watched it open its eyes, and looked at her with its black and moist eyes.
Watching it learn to walk, it would walk towards her in a crooked manner...
It is very well-behaved and smart. It seems to understand what Yu Xinghe says. It never barks and eats obediently.
As the days passed, she treated it like a family.
Tell it stories, comb its hair, and confide in it things from your heart that you would never tell anyone else.
She wanted to find the missing warmth from her family through it.
It's quite funny to say, she felt that the world was so big that there was no place for her.
Yu's mother and father rarely came to her room to check, so they never found out.
In this way, Yu Xinghe secretly raised it for more than a month, wishing she could stay with it 24 hours a day.
That was the happiest time in Yu Xinghe's life.
However, happy times are always short-lived.
Because she spent most of her time raising her puppy, she didn't review enough for the monthly exam and her grades dropped sharply.
She had long been numb to the accusations from her father and mother.
But Yu's mother rummaged through her schoolbag and her bookcase, trying to find out why her grades had dropped so quickly.
Finally, in the locked chest of drawers, the puppy whimpered in fear.
This was the first time it barked in an "unwise" way.
Yu Ma heard it.
She witnessed with her own eyes Yu Ma angrily picking up the puppy, ignoring the existence of this little life, and throwing it hard at her feet.
She knelt on the cold floor, her back stiff, not daring to turn her head to look at it.
She let out a few faint cries of pain, like sad cries, and then she felt sharp little claws scratching her trouser legs.
Soft and powerless.
Everything returned to calm.
As if nothing had happened.
She bit her lower lip tightly and didn't shed a tear no matter how Yu Ma beat and scolded her.
She just felt regret.
I regretted not listening to Zhou Jingyan and raising the puppy in his house.
That way at least it can stay alive.
She broke her promise.
She didn't take good care of it.
She never had any pets since then.
Even when Yu's mother later suggested getting her a pet as a reward for her having topped the city's high school entrance exam, she refused without hesitation.
She can't afford it now.
Same.
For Zhou Jingyan.
She didn't dare to make too many promises.
The weight of the promise was too heavy for her to keep.
She just hopes that he can be healthy, safe and happy.
That’s enough.
Will he always be by her side?
She didn't dare to hope for it.
Just like that little puppy.
She had also imagined accompanying it through its short life of more than ten years, but she didn't expect that its life would only be more than a month.
She didn't even have time to make amends.
Yanyan will grow up, get married and start a family, and there will always be a day when she will leave her.
So, such things as permanent companionship don't actually exist...
Or rather, it only exists in fictional romance novels.
Yu Xinghe stroked the boy's soft hair, feeling the tingling sensation of the hair rubbing between his fingers.
She was in a bad mood and lowered her head gloomily.
I even forgot that I wanted to ask him if he had a girlfriend.
Immersed in my sudden sad thoughts.
She is such a pessimistic person who always thinks the worst of everything.
Zhou Jingyan seemed to sense her unusual quietness, rubbed his head against her palm, and slowly said: "Sister, since you are worried that I am still sick, then please touch my forehead more often."
Then he put his forehead against her warm palm and asked, "Do you feel it?"
The boy's voice was gentle, temporarily bringing her back to her thoughts.
She was a little confused.
"Feel what?"
I subconsciously bent my fingers, and my fingertips brushed across his brow bone, scratching his eyebrows in the opposite direction, which made me feel a little itchy.
Zhou Jingyan looked up, broke free from her fingers, and looked at her with a smile.
"Feel my blood flowing for you!"
He was serious, and his eyes were firm behind his smile.
"loquacious!"
Yu Xinghe withdrew his hand and gently tapped his forehead.
Zhou Jingyan came over again.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, rested his forehead against her soft belly, and her fragrance enveloped him.
My heart feels so sweet that it feels like honey is flowing out.
His eyes were half-closed and his expression looked a little lazy.
She opened her red lips and her breath smelled like orchid.
He said what he had kept in his heart for a long time.
"Sister, I like you."
