Anne the redhead and his prince

Chapter 58

Every school will have two or three well-known secret bases, such as a small pavilion built by an artificial pond, or a bamboo forest that the school spent a lot of money to build, or a library that no one would go all the way to. top floor.

The library has nearly ten floors, and the school clearly miscalculated the reading ability of the students. So many tables and chairs left unused may be another default waste of resources.Students are in class during the day, and few people come from the teaching building to the library, let alone go to the top floor to have a shower.

It was sunny this afternoon, but there were only two teenagers on the top floor of the library.Opposite the tall library is an old teaching building. Because the desks and blackboards are too old, they are left unused for the school's various and disorganized clubs to use as a place for daily activities.

A society that prefers photography and sculpture happens to be organizing a rare team building activity in a semester.The young man happened to be recorded from a distance by the "click" lens through some dirty old glass, and it was taken as a "landscape photo", and the person concerned did not know it for the time being.

Lin Anni lay down, his left cheek pressed against the cool railing, and the wind blew his black hair.His movements are lazy, but his eyes are staring straight at Jiang Yuxi.

Jiang Yuxi laughed and said, "What's wrong with me today, is it worth watching for so long?"

Lin Anni changed his posture and lay on his stomach, and kicked Jiang Yuxi by the way.His voice could not hear any tone: "Because you are a fool."

The young man's feet were so strong that he even confiscated them. Jiang Yuxi didn't move a step, but just endured it forcefully, without even frowning or saying a word.

Lin Anni was so distressed that he just wanted to have fun with Jiang Yuxi, but he didn't want to come for real.

He immediately stopped his legs: "Why don't you hide?"

"I hid." Jiang Yuxi said, "You are even more angry."

The library is the tallest building in No. [-] Middle School. Looking down from the top floor, you can almost overlook the entire campus.At this time, the students are still in class, and there are not many students downstairs, and only three or four people can be seen sporadically.But a little further away, there are always students on the playground, densely packed and small like circles of ants.

Lin Anili stood up and put away his joking attitude, "I'm waiting for you to explain to me."

Jiang Yuxi met Lin Anni's steadfast gaze.

After a long time, Lin Anni seemed to hear Jiang Yuxi let out a shallow sigh.Suddenly he felt uneasy.Lin Anni rarely saw Jiang Yuxi's emotions so obvious.

In another moment, Jiang Yuxi had returned to his usual state of not eating oil and salt.

"Do you still remember the physics teacher?" Jiang Yuxi met Lin Anni's unsuspecting gaze, slightly parted her thin lips, but suddenly detonated a time bomb that no one expected.

Lin Anni's hand on the railing trembled, thinking that it might not be what he imagined.He opened his mouth, and wanted to make a light joke: "You mean the one I saw in the hospital, or the new female teacher? I remember them all."

Jiang Yuxi looked at him for a second, and there was a trace of unnoticed sadness in his steady voice. He looked down at the little black spots running on the playground, "Teacher still hasn't made it through."

When Jiang Yuxi mentioned the old man, Lin Anni made a little mental preparation.The guess was confirmed, but he still didn't react immediately.

Lin Anni's voice was hoarse. He took a deep breath and grabbed Jiang Yuxi's sleeve: "When did it happen?"

Jiang Yuxi told a time.

Lin Anni's memory has always been good, and he remembered everything that happened at this time in an instant.That is, on this day, Jiang Yuxi, who was still indifferent to Lin Anni at that time, took the initiative to chat with him about some trivial matters on a rare occasion.Lin Anni was immersed in the game and couldn't extricate himself. After a few perfunctory words, he used the excuse of "I'm going to take a shower, we'll talk tomorrow" to end all topics.

Lin Anni felt Jiang Yuxi's inexplicable fragility that day, but he never thought about where his fragility came from.To say something cold-blooded, he has no special feelings for this physics teacher.He hadn't listened to the teacher's class carefully, and after the teacher was admitted to the hospital, he could only sigh "everything is unpredictable" as an outsider, and visit him politely by the way.

But Jiang Yuxi wasn't him.

When Jiang Yuxi transferred to another school, he was the class representative selected by the physics teacher for no reason. The teacher cherished and loved his talents.After the teacher was admitted to the hospital, Jiang Yuxi was even the hospital's first contact.After his condition was stable and he was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Yuxi also visited him from time to time.Lin Anni alone remembered three or four times, counting the ones Lin Anni didn't know, I don't know how many times.

The physics teacher has no family members, so Jiang Yuxi takes on the responsibility of the small half of the family. Even Jiang’s mother has brought her slow-cooked fish soup to visit several times.

Lin Anni swallowed the dryness in his throat, and he wanted to comfort Jiang Yuxi.Looking back, when Jiang Yuxi needed comfort the most, he had abandoned it because of a broken game. It had been so long. Judging by Jiang Yuxi's appearance, he should have recovered. His outdated, hypocritical What's the point of comforting and alleviating guilt?

The words were hidden in the atrium of my heart, surging like a ferocious beast, about to break out of the cage and rush out.

Lin Anni finally calmed down, he said: "...Have you been discharged from the hospital? The doctor also said that the condition is under good control."

Jiang Yuxi was silent.

After a long time, he said a word: "The world is impermanent."

These four words are commonplace, but they are not really new.Lin Anni can truly empathize with Jiang Yuxi's helplessness.The operation fee was in place, and the doctor also said that it was a very successful operation. After the operation, the old man recovered very well. From being able to open his eyes, to saying a few words of comfort, from being able to only touch his lips with cotton swabs, to being able to eat Liquid food, everything seems so perfect.

Until he was discharged from the hospital, the old man's examination report was still very good.

But who knows, just half a month away from being discharged from the hospital, the smooth and complete construction that was originally established in a safe and stable manner was ruined.

Lin Anni pointed to himself, and held back for a long time before saying: "Can I go and see the teacher?"

Jiang Yuxi looked at him, but said nothing.

The head teacher must have known about this, but she didn't tell any students.Lin Anni guessed that the insiders should all be the closest students or close friends of the physics teacher, and they, a group of semi-strangers, do not have the right to know.

This is the correct way to do it.

Lin Anni was embarrassed, "It doesn't matter if you can't. The teacher doesn't know me very well."

"No." Jiang Yuxi shook his head, "I told you earlier, he knows you. I'll take you there."

Once again, these two good students walked out of the iron gate of the school without any teacher's permission, under the half-closed eyes of the guard who was sleepy in the afternoon.

At this point in time, it is not as busy as the morning and evening peak hours, when buses come and go empty.Lin Anni stood on the edge of the bus stop, with the sun about to set on his head, raised his head and dripped a drop of sweat from his pointed chin.

He tasted a slightly bitter salty taste in his mouth, still staring at the bus stop sign, and asked casually, "Which bus should we take?"

Jiang Yuxi held Lin Anni's arm, "The car has arrived."

Lin Anni squinted his eyes and turned his head in surprise. The handsome and perfect side face of the other party fell into his eyes unsuspectingly just like every day every day.

The strange thing is that this time, Lin Anni saw in a trance the stubbornness and forbearance in Jiang Yuxi's expression that had not been completely hidden. Even if there was only a little bit of it on his face, he still caught it.

32 Road.

Lin Anni thought, if I remember correctly, its destination is a piece of sea.

People from the south go to the north to see the snow, and they are as strange as a child who has just entered the Grand View Garden; people from the north come to the south to feel the rare warmth in winter.When inland people occasionally see the sea, they will feel that the most extensive lake in their hometown is like a small ditch in front of the sea.

Jiangcheng is an island city to the letter. The locals are naturally tired of looking at the sea, and even the precious seafood that others think is hard-won will laugh and say that.

The same is true for Lin Anni. After living in Jiangcheng for so many years, he has long been tired of watching the sea, and he has no interest in watching the sea.He didn't understand why Jiang Yuxi brought him here.

He raised his eyes several times to look at Jiang Yuxi, but just as the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

After hesitant to speak for countless times, Lin Anni finally asked in puzzlement, "What did you bring me here for?"

Most seas are not romantic.Although Jiangcheng is an island, it is too close to the land, and due to more or less pollution, the color of sea water is similar to that of sand.The railings of the pier have been exposed to the wind and the sun, and have been beaten by the waves all year round. They have long been rusty and smelly. When the sun sets, it mixes with the unique salty smell of sea water, and directly hits Lin Anni's nose.

A sudden and loud whistle sounded, and a ship drifting on the sea set off under the sight of Jiang Yuxi and Lin Anni.

Jiang Yuxi answered the wrong question: "Do you like the sea?"

Lin Anni leaned his whole body on the rusty railing without fear of getting dirty, and asked: "Do you want to listen to the truth? Average. Those foolish kids have watched too many TV shows since they were young, thinking that the sea is so beautiful. In my opinion, they haven't The creek in front of my house is beautiful. At least if I squat by the creek, it can be used as a mirror.”

As he said that, he looked at Jiang Yuxi again: "What about you? You haven't been in Jiangcheng since you were a child, do you have fantasies about the sea?"

Jiang Yuxi shook her head.

"I was born in Jiangcheng." Jiang Yuxi made a rare insignificant joke, "I naturally know the virtues of the sea bred in my hometown."

It's not too funny, but it's a joke from the sweetheart.

Lin Anni smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled, and there was a tenderness between his brows that he had never discovered.

"But what we live on is just a main island." Jiang Yuxi said, "I heard that there are several small islands surrounding this main island in the distance. They are remote, poor, uninhabited, and even the houses are made of stone. Yes. Some of the former local residents moved to live on the main island decades ago, and it takes four hours to take the fastest boat one way.”

Of course Lin Anni knew about this. He heard from his grandfather that these small islands are no longer inhabited today.

"However, their sea is blue." Jiang Yuxi paused, then turned to look at Lin Anni, "The teacher said that there is his home. He wants to go back there."

And the wharf where they are standing now, which emits a stench all the time, is the corner closest to their teacher.

Across the sea, at a four-hour boat speed, it was already the "closest" they could do.

"I know." Lin Anni thought for a while and said, "Grandpa told me that the sea water there is bluer than the sky, just like..."

He choked out a few words, looked at Jiang Yuxi in a daze, "Xanadu as described by Tao Yuanming?"

This sentence is really against his will, it’s okay to try something new, it really made him stay on the isolated island for ten days and half a month, Lin Anni probably went crazy.He likes to be noisy, and he can't stand places where there are no people.But Lin Anni's grandfather liked it, and mentioned such a small island to him several times.

Lin Anni said: "So you planned to study medicine before because of the teacher?"

Jiang Yuxi was silent for a while.

He said, "It's sort of."

He paused and added: "It's more than that. There are too many examples like this around me. If you can learn a little bit, it's always good."

Compared to Jiang Yuxi, Lin Anni is actually much naive.He didn't think so much, so far, but he really wanted to persuade him not to give up: "Actually, I can understand. My grandfather just fell down that time, and I panicked...Jiang Yuxi, if you want to study medicine, you can do it." Go learn it. You're smart enough to learn this."

Jiang Yuxi looked at him for a while.

The sea breeze blew the hem of his school uniform, Jiang Yuxi suddenly smiled and said, "I'm so smart, I can learn anything."

Jiang Yuxi is a person who is quite indifferent to many things in the world, dispensable or indifferent, this is the description that runs through his whole person, he finally found a direction he was willing to pursue, but he gave up because he was a partial student .

Lin Anni felt extremely powerless.He feels that he is not stupid in eloquence. Although he is not eloquent, he can always speak convincingly because of his writing skills praised by the Chinese teacher every day.

But the opponent was Jiang Yuxi, he seemed to be in a predicament, he couldn't get out of it left and right, and became the most clumsy person.

If you can't reason, you can only come hard.

Lin Anni lowered her face: "Can you listen to me?"

Jiang Yuxi couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "I've been listening to you."

Hearing this, Lin Anni became even more annoyed. He used to think that Jiang Yuxi was a star in the sky and the most perfect person in the world, but today he suddenly realized that it is hard to say whether he is perfect or not. This person is really the most stubborn person in the world. People are also good at picking the slightest loopholes in your words.If these rebuttals were a game, then Lin Anni would have been knocked out by the opponent.

Lin Anni didn't pretend to be angry this time.He is really angry.

When he is angry with ordinary people, he probably has red eyes and a stern look on his face, but he can't show his face at all when he is angry with Jiang Yuxi. Even when he is angry, he just puffs his face and pouts his mouth. cute.

Lin Anni didn't notice this appearance, and all of it was reflected in Jiang Yuxi's pupils stupidly.

Jiang Yuxi sighed slightly.

He stepped forward and hugged Lin Anni, now Lin Anni was even more stupid, he didn't know whether to stick his hands and feet to the trouser line or lift them up to respond.

There was a rustling sound as the water hit the shore.

Jiang Yuxi's voice was close at hand, right next to Lin Anni's ear, covering up the sound of the turbulent waves, but it couldn't cover up the heartbeats from the two of them.

"Didn't you ask me if I had fantasies about the sea since I was a child?"

"Annie."

"Since I was a child, I have only fantasized about you."

"I have fantasies about you and our future."

"It doesn't matter anything else, whether you study medicine or not, it's not as good as being with you all the time."

Lin Anni moved his lips: "..."

He thought words were powerless, and finally responded to Jiang Yuxi with actions.

Lin Anni raised her hand, hugged Jiang Yuxi tightly, and gently rubbed her boyfriend's shoulder with her side face.He was so moved that he even thought he had shed a tear.

He tucked the corners of his eyes with his fingers, found that they were dry, and even picked out a little bit of eye mucus, which dispelled the emotion in his heart.

Lin Anni: "Hey."

Jiang Yuxi: "Huh?"

Lin Anni: "What's the matter with my rival in love?"

Jiang Yuxi: "Rival in love?"

Lin Anni hesitated, his voice was as small as a mosquito: "Just the school doctor, the one who cooks delicious food...he knows a lot about you, many things I don't know, but he knows. Even if you want to study medicine , or he told me."

Lin Anni was working under Jiang Yuxi's nose. Jiang Yuxi knew most of his random thoughts, and even if he didn't know, he could guess, but he was serious about treating the school doctor as a rival in love. None noticed.

Because Jiang Yuxi didn't think about that at all.

Jiang Yuxi said: "He is not your rival in love."

Lin Anni had already guessed this point, and he wanted to hear Jiang Yuxi explain it himself.

Jiang Yuxi took a breath, "He is my uncle."

Lin Anni was dumbfounded.

He almost thought Jiang Yuxi was lying to him.

"Uncle dear?"

"……Um."
