Chapter 51: i will remember
"It's okay, grandma won't be angry." Lu Ran came over and gently wiped away the tears on Jiang Nuan's face.
His fingers carried the temperature that belonged to him, as if he touched it lightly, and the cold part of his heart warmed up.
"Of course she won't be mad at me... She's never mad at me, she's just sad... She said that day, 'Xiao Nuan, can you stay here and sleep with grandma for one night',
But I find it annoying to sleep with her... She will nag about my kindergarten again... My ears are getting calluses... I don't want to hear it! I lied to her that the school had to make up lessons... She stood at the door and looked at me, and kept looking at me..."
At that moment, she had a lot to say, and she couldn't hold back the flood, and she said it all at once.
She doesn't care, even if Lu Ran criticizes her for being impatient and doesn't understand the thoughts of her elders.
She just wanted to tell him.
But without any criticism, the boy opposite just stretched out his arm, took her into his arms, and gently pressed her head on his chest.
"Dong dong dong..."
It was Lu Ran's peaceful and steady heartbeat.
"Even if she doesn't remember you now,
But she still cares about you. Even if you are injured and lying in bed, I still miss you. Lu Ran held her like this, and his hand patted her back gently, just like when she was lying beside her grandmother on countless quiet nights when she was a child, and her grandmother gently patted her on the back.
"Yeah...probably so,
She won't remember that I rejected her... Then slowly and slowly she doesn't remember anything... Will she forget about me in kindergarten? By that time, no one will remember anymore... No one will remember to buy me a white rabbit during Chinese New Year..."
Are people always like this, regret not cherishing when they can have it without effort?
"I will remember." Lu Ran's hand was gently embedded in Jiang Nuan's hair and rubbed lightly.
It was as if a cloud was given to her, stuffed into her mind, gently wrapping all her thoughts and memories.
Lu Ran let go of Jiang Nuan, and the surrounding air cooled down at once, making Jiang Nuan feel the urge to either hug him tightly, or step forward and hug the person in front of him again.
Lu Ran took off the schoolbag on his back, grabbed something from the bag, and stretched it out in front of Jiang Nuan. When his fingers opened, there were two big white rabbit toffees in his palm.
Jiang Nuan froze there.
The nose and eyes suddenly became sour, and the tears that were about to be held back seemed to be rushing out again.
"It's not the toffee I gave you for the New Year...you still keep it until now, right?"
"It's in the convenience store at the intersection. I saw it today and bought it, because I remember that you were coaxed to kindergarten by the white rabbit when you were a child. My memory is very good, and even when you don't remember, I will definitely remember it. ."
The world is so quiet.
It was so quiet that she wondered if the person in front of her was real, and what she said didn't seem real to her.
Because... this person probably won't say anything that makes her feel good.
But she was always so straightforward about saying what she wanted most.
I don't know what I will remember, but I have a hunch that I will never forget who you are today.
Even if I don't remember all the formulas and theorems, even my favorite comics and games, I will still remember you at this moment.
Jiang Nuan took the two big white rabbits from Lu Ran's palm.
"Stop thinking about it, we're going home." Lu Ran said softly.
The word "we" fell in her heart and sank little by little.
Because of "we", I'm not afraid that all the things I thought I'd always have will disappear over time.
Even "going home" has a different meaning.
You have to keep doing this, Lu Ran.
Whenever my world cracks even a little bit, you can always make it up.
For me, it's not time that smoothes out all the dents.
but you.
Jiang Nuan entered the elevator with Lu Ran, and as soon as the elevator door closed, he heard a long "grunt--" sound from Jiang Nuan's stomach.
"Didn't you eat something before going to the cram school?" Lu Ran asked.
"... digested."
"Then go upstairs. Have something to eat, just in time to finish writing the unfinished questions."
"You want to give me something to eat? Let me tell you, I don't eat vegetable noodles! I want to eat meat!"
"We eat beef noodles."
When Lu Ran said this, Jiang Nuan immediately got excited.
As soon as he entered the door of Lu Ran's house, it was pitch black again.
"Your father is on a business trip again? Your mother is on duty again?" Jiang Nuan pulled out the slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them on, without Lu Ran saying hello.
"It's not the first time you've come to my house."
After speaking, Lu Ran went into the kitchen. Jiang Nuan followed Lu Ran with his slippers and found that he was actually unpacking plastic bags.
"Isn't this instant noodles? Didn't you say eat beef noodles!"
"Is something wrong?" Lu Ran raised the bag, which read "Master Kang's Braised Beef Noodles".
Jiang Nuan crooked his mouth: "You are really good, the classic style you chose..."
"How many eggs do you eat?" Lu Ran opened the refrigerator door and asked back.
"Of course I eat two!"
As Lu Ran put the seasoning packet into the boiling water, the rich fragrance overflowed, and Jiang Nuan almost choked on his own saliva.
Lu Ran came directly to the table with the pot, Jiang Nuan took the chopsticks, and clipped the chopsticks directly with the lid of the pot.
When Lu Ran came back with the bowl, he saw that the lid in Jiang Nuan's hand had already filled half of the noodles.
Jiang Nuan heard the sound of Lu Ran putting the bowl, and raised his head, his mouth was still twitching.
"I ordered three bags of noodles." Lu Ran lowered his head and glanced at the pot.
"Oh! I said how can I eat like this!"
Lu Ran picked up the bowl, turned his chopsticks into the pot, and directly rolled a third of the noodles into his bowl.
Jiang Nuan's eyes widened, he was really good at making chopsticks!
As soon as she finished eating what was in the pot lid, she saw that Lu Ran was going to grab the second bowl.
"You are merciful! I only took two bites!"
Lu Ran didn't seem to hear it. Seeing that there was another big chopstick, the pot was almost empty. Jiang Nuan put the lid on without thinking about it.
"Clang", just pressed Lu Ran's chopsticks.
"The last time I had a pot of noodles, when I came, there was only noodle soup left."
"Isn't it just instant noodles? You can cook it again! I'm hungrier than you!" Jiang Nuan looked just right.
"Don't you think you are very cute?" Lu Ran raised his eyebrows, and with his chopsticks he lifted the lid of the pot with ease.
"No! How can you say "cute" when you eat instant noodles?" Jiang Nuan asked.
"Since it's not cute, why do you think I'll give you a whole pot of noodles? Am I obliged to cook noodles for you?" Lu Ran asked back.
Jiang Nuan was choked at once.
He leaned towards her, his beautiful eyes getting closer and closer, "Am I familiar with you? Are you being rude to me?"
"Just... just..." Jiang Nuan's eyes lit up, suddenly remembering what Lu Ran said when he took a photoshoot with her, he straightened his back and replied, "Of course we are familiar! We are upright childhood sweethearts! It's what you said!"
Lu Ran paused, and could faintly see a smile in his eyes, like the most inconspicuous little flower in the gap of the city wall that went straight into the sky, but once he saw it, he couldn't look away.
"You really take advantage." Lu Ran put down the bowl and said, "After eating, wash off the pot and bowl."
"I'm a guest, you entertained the guest, so you can let me wash the pots and dishes!"
"Only pigs do nothing after eating. I have no hobby of raising pigs."
"..." Jiang Nuan smashed the villain with a brick in his heart, and he was very happy.
"Hey, Lu Ran, don't you want to eat eggs?"
"Just two eggs, don't you want both?" Lu Ran walked back to his room.
Hearing this, Jiang Nuan suddenly felt that she was happy to let her wash the pots and dishes.
Jiang Nuan packed up the pots and pans, and while putting down his sleeves, he came to the door of his room. As soon as he opened the door, under the soft light, he saw Lu Ran sitting in front of the chair, holding a book in his hand. He lowered his eyes and leaned towards the book, as if there was a world he had been looking forward to.
The closer he got to the book, his brows and eyes were drawn into the shadows, his profile was like a lonely cliff that was about to sink into the night, those hidden thoughts that could not be understood by others, were only waiting for Jiang Nuan to take a step closer. .
The door made a creaking sound, and Lu Ran's shoulder seemed to be stunned. He slowly closed the book and put it aside.
"Have you packed your dishes?"
"Packed up! Would you like to check it out?"
Jiang Nuan crooked his face.
"No. It's already so late, hurry up and finish your homework, wash your face and go to bed."
Jiang Nuan nodded, and immediately took out the chemical paper, and did it seriously.
When a certain gas, which she is not good at, passes through a certain chemical solution and then passes through a certain gas, and then reacts with a certain metal to become such and such, Jiang Nuan was a little tired all day, and now she is biting the tip of a fountain pen. , the brain is about to become a mush.
When she heard a click, she simply lay on the table and fell asleep.
Anyway...with Lu Ran by his side, everything that needs to be done will definitely be done.
In a daze, the water pen biting between his lips seemed to leave gently, replaced by something warm and soft, Jiang Nuan couldn't help pursing his lips, as if the soft thing also She was choked.
There was a familiar scent to her, as well as a temperature that made her nostalgic, touching her without any barriers.
She was reluctant to let it go, and she sipped hard like a stubborn child, as if she would sleep peacefully, have a good dream, and never lose it.
At 10:30 in the evening, her face was being poked all the time. She rubbed her eyes and got up, only to find a stack of napkins under her chemical paper.
Damn, fortunately there are napkins, otherwise my saliva will soak the chemical simulation roll!
However, didn't Lu Ran see the way he slept until he was drooling?
Did he "hum" from the top again?
"It's half past ten! I can't finish writing my papers! Why don't you call me when you see me sleeping!"
"You're so sleepy, and it doesn't work if you do the questions. Why don't you just sleep well and recharge your batteries."
"I'll explain it tomorrow! What to do!"
"Just tell the teacher that you went to the hospital tonight. If you can shed a few tears, the teacher will only comfort you and not blame you."
"Am I the kind of person who sheds tears easily!"
"Who is crying downstairs?"
"That's because it's you! I can't cry at the teacher!"
Lu Ran was suddenly silent.
Jiang Nuan looked at his expression and couldn't guess what he was thinking, so she packed up her things.
Forget it, she really doesn't want to stay up late to write papers at all, so she'll just follow the fate tomorrow.
"Is your pen mine?" Jiang Nuan stretched out his hand to get it, but Lu Ran turned his hand over and pinned it on the table.
"Confiscation."
Jiang Nuan was helpless and pulled Lu Ran's sleeve.
"You'd better give it back to me. I've got this whole pen left now."
The others are missing arms and legs.
Jiang Nuan was about to lift Lu Ran's hand, but Lu Ran clasped his fingers again and took the pen away.
"Okay, okay, here it is for you! It's like paying for the two packs of Master Kong instant noodles plus two eggs."
"It's three packs of Master Kong instant noodles."
"whatever."
Jiang Nuan left Lu Ran's house with a schoolbag on his back.
She came to the door of the house, opened the door but found that the light was not on.
"Did it trip?"
It was dark in the room, and she took two steps forward by the light in the corridor.
The front was very dark, Jiang Nuan swallowed, she had been afraid of the dark since she was a child. Where there is no light, her imagination is always very rich.
I finally found the electric switch and lifted all of them up, but they snapped down immediately, which was useless at all.
"Why are you so unlucky..."
When her parents are not at home, she usually turns on the lights in the living room before going to bed. Now let alone the living room, there is nothing in the whole room except the light at the door.
Grandma still needs someone to accompany her, and she is embarrassed to tell her parents that she is afraid of needing them back.
Jiang Nuan took a breath, closed the door, and the room instantly darkened.
She went into the bathroom with the light of her mobile phone, intending to brush her teeth and wash her face, but the power went out, and she had a good excuse for not doing her homework.
She squeezed the toothpaste, and when she looked up, she saw her miserable face in the mirror, and she almost threw the toothpaste on it.
What the hell... this "female ghost" is herself!
Jiang Nuan hurriedly turned on the light of the mobile phone, which was more terrifying than no light.
While brushing her teeth, Jiang Nuan felt that the hair behind her stood upright, and she always felt that someone was looking at her, but she didn't have the courage to look up in the mirror.
After brushing her teeth hastily, she finally felt that she didn't want to stay here alone.
She got into the elevator and went upstairs. She was suspicious and always felt that something was floating out of the house. She followed behind her. When she was in the elevator, she felt that there was something in the corners around her.
When he arrived at the door of Lu Ran's house, he desperately rang the doorbell.
I don't know why, but Lu Ran didn't open the door as quickly as before. Suddenly, the lights in the corridor dimmed, and the elevator behind him made a "ding dong" sound, and the door opened by himself!
Jiang Nuan's goosebumps were about to fall, and all kinds of horror movie scenes flooded into her mind. Just when she raised her hand and pressed it hard, the door suddenly opened.
Lu Ran stood there in his pajamas, looking at her.
At that moment, all the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods disappeared, only the figure of this person in front of him.
Jiang Nuan exhaled, and Lu Ran took a half step back: "What's wrong?"
"My house is out of power..."
"Did you check the switch?"
Jiang Nuan nodded immediately: "Checked, checked! But it's useless!"
"Then wait." Lu Ran turned sideways, found a toolbox in the cabinet, and followed Jiang Nuan away.
Probably Lu Ran's "Yangsha" is relatively heavy. Jiang Nuan feels that the elevator is very "clean", and the corridor is normal. Even when the door is opened, the dark home seems to be able to see to the end.
Lu Ran took a flashlight and looked inside. He didn't know what he had opened, so he jumped upside down again.
Jiang Nuan stretched his neck and said, "Be careful, don't electrocute yourself!"
"Yeah." Lu Ran turned his face to the side, clipped the flashlight around his neck, tested it with an electric pen, and then leaned towards Jiang Nuan, "Hold up the flashlight for me."
Jiang Nuan stretched out his hand, and Lu Ran turned to her side. The faint cedar-like smell around his neck made Jiang Nuan feel that his heart was beating a little faster.
Probably seeing that her hand hadn't picked up the flashlight, Lu Ran raised his eyes to look at her.
Under the backlight, Lu Ran's deep eye socket contours and high nose bones are connected into a line full of reverie.
He raised his chin slightly, with a faint question in his eyes, but he didn't know that in Jiang Nuan's eyes, it was like a harbinger of a kiss on TV.
Jiang Nuan didn't even dare to breathe, so she hurriedly took off the flashlight. Her heart was beating wildly, and the troops were in chaos. Fortunately, there was no light, so Lu Ran couldn't see the expression on her face.
Lu Ran tried again, and then replied, "It's not the capacitor. Maybe your main switch is faulty and needs to be replaced."
"Ah...then it won't light up tonight..."
"Anyway, you don't plan to do your homework anymore, and you don't need to turn on the light when you sleep."
Lu Ran took the flashlight from Jiang Nuan and looked ready to go home.
Jiang Nuan followed behind him and saw him go to the door to change his shoes. He wanted to hold him thousands of times in his heart, but he still put his hands in his school uniform pockets.
Seeing that Lu Ran was about to open the door, Jiang Nuan couldn't help calling him, "Lu Ran..."
Lu Ran turned to look at her: "what's the matter?"
"No... nothing..."
Lu Ran sighed slightly, as if brushing against her ear in the dark, her heart became nervous.
"You tell me well that you are afraid of the dark, will you die?"
Jiang Nuan's heart skipped a beat... How did Lu Ran know this again!
"I'm afraid you will laugh at me..."
"Haha, I'm done laughing."
Lu Ran's voice was still so soft, especially when there was no light, his hearing became extraordinarily sharp.
