Chapter 106: Finding the Fruit of Time
After the head teacher gave instructions, he announced the official holiday. The students shouted excitedly, and the whole teaching building shook a few times.
Xie Fei and Ye Jing walked hand in hand absentmindedly on the way home. The closer they got to parting, the less they knew what to say, so they both remained silent.
It was not until before going to bed at night that Xie Fei knocked on Ye Jing's door.
He must have just taken a shower, as his body still had the fresh smell of shower gel, his black hair was dotted with water droplets, and his handsome face was slightly flushed from the shower.
"It's so late, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ye Jing asked casually while sitting cross-legged on the edge of the bed. Her voice was light and her head was slightly lowered, so the expression on her face could not be seen clearly.
Xie Fei leaned against the door frame with one arm around his chest, and wiped his hair with a handkerchief with the other hand. The wet bangs on his forehead slightly covered his eyes. He lowered his eyes and looked at the girl sitting on the bed. After a while, he smiled and asked, "I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, so why don't you say anything?"
"Oh." Ye Jing replied calmly while playing with her fingernails, "Have a nice trip."
Xie Fei originally thought that she had a lot to say and was ready to listen attentively, but before he could even smile, she had already finished.
He blinked at the little girl in disbelief, and after a long while he asked in a daze: "Is that all? Nothing else to say?"
"That's all." Ye Jing nodded and looked at him innocently.
"Aren't lovers supposed to express their feelings to each other when they part? Say something like 'I'll miss you', 'You have to come back soon', 'Remember to call and text me every day'... or even ask me to stay for two more days before going back?" Xie Fei looked at her in confusion and asked unwillingly, "You, you just said 'Have a nice trip' to me?"
Ye Jing glanced at him and said calmly, "It's only ten days, what's there to think about?"
Listen, listen, what are you talking about? What do you mean by just ten days? Aren’t ten days enough?
Xie Fei was furious when he heard this, but looking at the delicate and weak appearance of the little girl, he couldn't bear to say anything harsh to her, so the anger at the tip of his tongue turned into a soft sigh.
"Forget it, I won't bother with you anymore." He walked barefoot to the bedside and sat down beside her. "I'll be back as soon as possible. There are a lot of robberies and thieves during the New Year. Be careful when you're home alone. Remember to lock the door when you go to bed at night. As for Ye Shimian, he'll need at least one to two months to recover from his injuries. He won't have time to bother you recently, so don't worry."
Ye Jing tilted her head slightly to look at him. Xie Fei's slightly wet fingers gently stroked her face and tucked the loose hair behind her ears. His expression was gentle and focused, and his eyes were warm and sincere, which made her feel an inexplicable warm feeling in her heart, which almost instantly swept away her previous unspeakable loss and boredom.
Feeling relieved, Ye Jing smiled more. She nodded obediently and said, "Okay."
"Call me if you have anything." Xie Fei inserted his slender fingers into her hair, rubbing it gently.
Ye Jing continued to nod obediently: "Okay."
It was rare to see her so obedient. During the semester they had been together, there had been almost no moment when she had not contradicted him. Although she was basically suppressed by his sweet words and beauty in the end, her rare obedience made him unable to stop smiling.
Xie Fei smiled silently, and said with a smile: "Remember to think of me."
"good."
Ye Jing didn't react for a moment, and nodded subconsciously. After she responded, she was startled. When she looked up, she saw someone's triumphant smile. She blushed and quickly reached out her hands to cover her eyes. She only said in a defensive tone: "I didn't hear clearly..."
Her hands covered most of her face, with only the gap between her hands revealing her cute nose tip and moist, pink lips. Her white teeth slightly bit her lower lip and she spoke softly, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.
Xie Fei stared at her lips. At that moment, his heart felt as if it was wrapped in marshmallows, sweet and soft.
The next second, Xie Fei lowered his head and gently and tenderly kissed her whispering lips.
The unfinished words were swallowed by someone, and the only thing left in the silence was the ambiguous atmosphere that was slowly rising.
…
After ten o'clock the next morning, a faint ray of warm winter sun shone through the bedroom window, evenly shining on the floor and quilt in the room. Ye Jing stretched and woke up slowly. In a daze, she reached out and touched the side, only to find that the quilt was cold and Xie Fei should have left.
A feeling of loss suddenly came over me.
Ye Jing was in a daze as she touched the pillow that someone had slept on last night. Last night was the first time they slept in the same bed, and the kiss was uncontrollable. She thought it was crossing the line, but it ended abruptly in the end.
I only remember Xie Fei panting softly, hugging me to slowly calm down, his hot lips lingering on my cheeks and earlobes, his voice hoarse and his breathing disordered: "Let's get engaged as soon as we graduate, okay?"
Engagement.
When she thought of this, Ye Jing's face suddenly turned red.
She fished out her phone from under the pillow and turned it on. Only then did she realize that the screen saver had somehow turned into a photo of the two of them, with a sentence on it:
The first day away from home, I miss you.
On the other side, Xie Fei did not go home at all. He, Jiang Wei and Xiao Yumo planned to take advantage of the enemy's relaxed vigilance during the New Year to sneak into the interior again to collect information.
This is a risky matter. Although he has magical powers, he would try his best not to use them if possible. Otherwise, the magnetic field of this world will be disturbed too much, triggering unpredictable chain reactions.
So, after careful consideration, he moved to Jiang Wei and Xiao Yumo's residence, making it easier for the three of them to act in unison and make detailed plans. Even if he got injured, Ye Jing wouldn't have to worry about him.
The ancients said, "One day without seeing you feels like three years."
In the past, Ye Jing and Xie Fei spent every day together and every night together, and they felt that time flew by like flowing water. Now he has only been gone for two days. Moreover, during these two days, they were either texting or talking on the phone. However, the longing for him gradually became an illness, making her feel extremely lonely and lonely. In the empty house, only the sound of the TV kept echoing.
After a few more days, there was not much food left in the refrigerator. Ye Jing went out for the first time since her long vacation and bought a lot of things from the nearby supermarket. It seemed that she planned to stay at home until school started.
When she passed by a mobile phone store on her way back, she remembered that Ye Shimian and Qiu Min had been calling her constantly in the past few days to urge her to go home for the New Year. She blocked one and then switched to another, which was really annoying. After hesitating for a while, she went in and bought a new number.
After returning home from shopping, as soon as Ye Jing opened the door, she saw the person she had been thinking about day and night lying on the sofa with his eyes closed. He opened his eyes and looked over when he heard the door open.
His eyes were a little red, he looked very tired, there was a little stubble on his chin, and he looked dusty all over.
While Ye Jing was in a daze, she saw him slowly stand up and walk towards her. He took the bag from her hand and asked lazily, "Did you miss me?"
I miss you, I miss you very much, I miss you so much that I want to cry!
After coming to her senses, Ye Jing had already subconsciously thrown herself into Xie Fei's arms, holding his thin waist tightly with both hands, and sobbing in his chest, tears rolling down. After a long while, she sniffed and asked in a muffled voice: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming back today?"
"I want to give you a surprise." Xie Fei patted her head gently and asked with a smile, "Do you like it?"
After hesitating for a while, Ye Jing still whispered, "...I like it."
"Yeah, I like you too." Xie Fei smiled mischievously when he heard that.
Ye Jing then realized that someone had taken advantage of her verbally again. Although she liked his answer, she felt that she was always tricked and foolishly fell for it. It would be strange if she wasn't angry!
She immediately pushed Xie Fei away, raised her head and snorted at him, saying angrily: "I said I like surprises!"
"Yeah, that's what I said." Xie Fei was not angry when he heard that. Instead, he smiled even happier. He leaned over and approached her, saying, "You are my surprise."
Ye Jing's face suddenly turned red, and she glared at Xie Fei, thinking she was angry, but she didn't know that her face was flushed, her eyes were watery, and she was particularly cute.
Unable to bear Xie Fei's affectionate gaze, Ye Jing stomped her feet, covered her burning face, turned around and ran into the house.
…
When lovers are together, time always flies quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was the day to go back to school. After returning from a new year, the classmates were excited but also had some complicated feelings.
This is the last semester, and we will go our separate ways in four months.
The pace of study in the second semester of senior year is even faster. In addition to necessary school activities, physical education, music, and art classes have all become six main subjects. Except for a short break during breaks and lunch breaks, the rest of the time is spent on reviewing, doing exercises, and taking exams over and over again. It is really boring and tiring.
About half a month passed like this. One afternoon, at the classroom podium, the math teacher was reviewing the mock exam papers. There was no other sound in the classroom except the sounds of students taking notes on the papers and the teacher writing on the blackboard.
Mathematics was Ye Jing's weak subject, and she was taking notes seriously. At this moment, the front door of the classroom was suddenly pushed open, and everyone looked towards the door.
After the head teacher Wei Hong nodded apologetically to the math teacher, she looked at Ye Jing with a serious face and shouted, "Class monitor, come out for a moment."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to her again. Ye Jing blinked in confusion, and a feeling of uneasiness inexplicably arose in her heart. She subconsciously looked back at Xie Fei, and saw that he nodded slightly. She felt a lot more relieved, then put down her pen, stood up, and followed Wei Hong out of the classroom.
As soon as the classroom door was closed, the students started gossiping in groups of three or four. From the attitude of the head teacher just now, everyone could see that it was not a good thing.
They were just very curious about what had happened that could make the class teacher, who always liked excellent students like Ye Jing, so serious.
The math teacher tapped the triangle ruler in his hand, more or less drawing the students' attention back. Only Xie Fei, who was sitting in the last row, had a sullen face, and no one knew what he was thinking. He just looked thoughtfully in the direction where Ye Jing left.
The author has something to say: ??Xie Fei: Someone is here to cause trouble again :)
(Tomorrow is 6000, the plot is still a little bit short of being sorted out)
