Picking the stars

It happened to be Saturday, and Song Wei flew at Noon, and went directly to Pei Ji's house.

Pei Ji usually stays at home on off days. She rarely goes out, and occasionally goes to the supermarket to supplement her daily needs.

When Song Wei arrived outside the house, he was a little nervous when he opened the door, but he was more expectant. When the professor saw her suddenly come back, he would be very happy.

As she thought, she opened the door.

There is no one in the house, and the air is full of peace. Song Wei stood at the door, stunned for a moment, she closed the door, changed her shoes, and pushed open the hidden door of the study.

There is no one in the study.

The professor is not at home.

Song Wei was surprised. She walked to the window of the study and looked out. The trees in late autumn had sparse leaves, dry branches and a little whitish.

It seems that when I was at home last time, when I opened the window, I could hear the cicadas, and the fragrance of the lotus leaves in the pond was blowing in the wind. Song Er suddenly felt a trance.

She took it out and sent a WeChat to Pei Ji, asking where she was.

It took more than ten minutes for Pei Ji to reply and was working overtime.

What a coincidence. Song Wei regretted that he was about to ask when Pei Ji would go home, Pei Ji called.

For no reason, how could she ask where she is. When Pei Ji saw this WeChat message, he guessed that Song Er must be home, so on the other end of the phone, her tone of voice brought some joy.

"You should tell me in advance." Pei Ji said.

Song Er heard her voice, heard the slight joy in her tone, and when he spoke, he couldn't help but smile: "I want to surprise you."

"I have a long time here." She apologized.

Song Er said hurriedly: "No hurry. I will have activities later. It should be early in the morning when I come back. Don't wait for me. Sleep first at night."

Pei Ji said: "Okay."

Someone on her side was calling "Professor Pei", and it seemed that she was really busy. Song Er said hurriedly, "Go ahead."

Pei Ji turned around, and through the glass wall, you could see a dozen people in white coats were discussing vigorously.

At the door, her help was calling her.

Pei Ji accepted it, handed it to the helper, and walked into the conference room.

Seeing her come in, the discussion stopped for a while, the dean looked up at her and said: "I think you still have to lead the team yourself. You have also studied before..."

Song Er's itinerary is arranged in the evening, and there are still several hours. The professor looked very busy and didn't know when he would be back.

Knowing that Pei Ji was working overtime, Song Yi had some regrets, but he didn't think deeply. She trimmed it first, and took a good night's sleep, and then it was more than five o'clock when she woke up. It was dark outside, and Pei Ji hadn't returned yet.

When it's dark, the lights are not turned on, and there are no other people in the house, there is always a bit of coldness in the house. Song Ye slept in Pei Ji's room.

She did not rush to turn on the light, nor did she get up, and lay for a while, wrapped in the quilt soaked in the breath of Pei Ji.

The road show was in a large movie theater in the heart of the city, and of course the theater was full. In addition to the media and guests, fans, actors' fans, and director's fans also came. After the movie was broadcast, Song Ye's blue support lights accounted for more than half of the theater.

Roadshows are quite boring for the main creators. They constantly change cities, and each show has the same process and said the same things.

After a few days, everyone was tired. But Song Wei was in a very good mood today. When the host asked her a question, he couldn't help but type: "Xiao Wei is all shining today. What is so happy?"

By the time this is over, it is already early in the morning.

With a cold body, Song Wei's face was a little numb from the wind. She opened the door gently, but saw Pei Ji sitting at the small table in the living room waiting for her.

She wears a pair of thin-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, which makes her look even worse. When she heard the door opening, she looked up and saw Song Er, her eyes lit up slightly.

Song Er changed his shoes and said, "Didn't you let you go to bed earlier, don't you wait for me?"

There were some reproaches in her words, but more of them were still happy.

I haven’t seen each other for half a month. The last time I saw each other can be called a breakup. The last half month is even more torment. It seems that nothing is right, and nothing can bring them closer, like a wall. , Clearly determined to love each other deeply, but separated by a wall, unable to approach.

Until this moment we met, the wall seemed to disappear.

Song Wei walked over, Pei Ji took off his glasses and put them aside. Song Wei walked to her and looked at her, not knowing what to say or do to confess her love. She felt that from the moment she saw the professor, Her heart is hot, and the professor can ignite all the enthusiasm and love in her life.

"When are you leaving?" Pei Ji asked.

"Tomorrow night." Song Er set aside a day specially.

Pei Ji nodded, and smiled at her slightly.

Song Wei sat on the sofa to help, leaned over Pei Ji's neck, and put her head against her. She saw her bright computer screen and asked, "Are you still busy? It's so late."

It was past midnight, and it was dawn within a few hours.

Pei Ji sighed lightly and nodded.

Seeing that she didn't mean to block it, Song Wei guessed that it wasn't a secret content, so he looked closely with her and found that he couldn't understand it.

She is not a scumbag either. She had good grades in school, but later she studied music and the requirements for chemical classes were not so high. But anyway, I rarely encounter things that I don’t understand.

Pei Ji's screen is full of English, which looks like a dedication, but also like a piece, many rare and uncommon words. Song Er watched for a long time, but only vaguely understood that it was probably a new type of virus raging in West Africa.

"Is it urgent?" Song Er asked.

Pei Ji sighed: "Yeah."

Song Wei listened to her sigh, thinking she would say a lot, and clarified the matter, but she only said one tone particle.

"Do you have time to talk about it?" Song Er asked.

Pei Ji explained to her in layman's terms: "A new type of virus is currently used internationally. />

Song Ye, a layman who heard this description, knew how terrible the virus is. It has a long incubation period, is easy to spread, and has a high mortality rate. In backward areas like West Africa, it is almost impossible to survive infection.

"Do you want to study this virus?" Song Wei asked.

Pei Ji nodded: "Medical teams and research teams from all over the world are rushing there, this />

Song Er was silent for a while, and then used as relaxed a tone as possible, as if asking casually: "Are you going?"

"No." Pei Ji replied.

Song Er breathed a sigh of relief, but after another thought, he felt wrong. The professor's words are clearly very interesting. She has always been enthusiastic about research. Now that there is something interesting, why not go?

She had some guesses, but she didn't want to think about it because it was too heavy.

After Pei Ji finished speaking, he continued to focus on the screen. The content on the screen had been replaced by a research report, still full of English. Pei Ji looked attentively.

"Why don't you go?" Song Er still asked.

Pei Ji turned his head, looked at her, and seriously explained: "This kind of research cycle will be very long, five years and ten years are common, the first few years will be permanent in West Africa."

Just seeing Pei Ji's heart getting hot at that moment gradually became cold, Song Wei didn't know what to say for a while, and after a while, she whispered: "You can also go, you should be very excited."

Pei Ji was surprised. Obviously she did not expect that she would say this. She closed the computer and reasoned with Song Wei: "West Africa is very poor. I went. In case it is an area with no signal, the people who contact you will be very Less, we may not meet once a year."

Song Wei blurted out: "If I don't meet, I will miss you, I will continue to like you, and I will wait for you to come back."

Pei Ji seemed to feel that she was making troubles unreasonably, and was a little unhappy, but she still had patience and reasoned with her: "It is impossible to get everything that is good, there must be a choice. I don't want you, so I have to give up some meetings. There will be in the future, but you only have one."

Her thoughts are very clear. Even now that she can see once or twice a month and can contact every day, she is often unhappy and feels too far away. If you go to West Africa, you will meet less and contact less. Something went wrong.

Pei Ji understood the reason for the choice, and she chose Song Er without any hesitation.

Song Wei's heart seemed to be severely pulled, and the pain was terrible. She loosened the ring around Pei Ji, and moved a little away from Pei Ji with her body back.

Pei Ji was so dull that he didn't notice any subtle changes in Song Wei. Since he had turned off the computer, he might as well go to sleep.

"Hurry up and take a bath." She urged Song Er.

It's so late, the kitten must be very tired.

Song Er hummed softly, got up and went to the bedroom.

Pei Ji watched her go, thought, and forgot to ask if the kitten was hungry. She just got up, taking advantage of Song Er to take a bath, she went to the kitchen and cut a plate of fruit.

She doesn't like fruit, but she always prepares some for Song Er at home.

She took the fruit to the bedroom, and when Song Er came out, she let her cushion her belly, so that she would neither accumulate food nor go to sleep hungry.

Song Wei nodded, as if thinking about it, she raised her head, and when she looked at Pei Ji, she still smiled and said, "You go and wash it."

Time passed by minute by minute, and when Pei Ji had finished washing up, it was almost four o'clock, and in two hours, it would be dawn.

Only a small lamp was left in the room, and the plate with fruit was placed on the bedside table. He hadn't touched it much. Song Er had already lay down, as if he was asleep.

Pei Ji let go and lay down next to her. She turned off the light, put it on Song Er's body, and paused for a moment. Seeing that it didn't bother her, she gently pressed it on and hugged Song Er into her arms.

kitten. Pei Ji called her in his heart contentedly, holding her, feeling that his heart was filled.

She thought that if she could sleep with a kitten two nights a month, she would be very satisfied. If it is a fixed time, so much the better.

Song Wei turned his back to her, Pei Ji was afraid of waking her up, and wanted to get close to her, so he restrained and gently kissed the back of her neck. Then, as if holding her most precious baby, she hugged Song Er, closed her eyes, and fell asleep soon.
