With you for thirteen years

"Dongdong, come and see how this place is." Hai Ruo sat cross-legged on the sofa, poking the tablet in his hand.This year, I listened to the recommendation of a colleague of hers and went with a pair of radiation-proof flat glasses. The thin silver-rimmed eyes were clamped on the straight bridge of the nose, adding a intellectual beauty.

Sometimes she would slightly curl up her long hair with an electric roller to make it look more mature.Hearing her question, Dongdong jumped on her knees gently and skillfully, nestled in her curled legs, and followed her look.

They are choosing places to travel this year.

This is considered a reserved item at home. The time arrangement of liberal arts professors is not like those of science and engineering. Once the experiment is started, it will be endless.It’s the end of the winter vacation. The new book has already started. My friends gathered for a few sessions and happily discussed the name of their future godson. My aunt has been free this year and said that she wants to find a place to relax with them. a bit.

"So, how about going to the hot spring." Looking at a recommendation on the forum, Hai Ruo stared at Dongdong with bright eyes.

Dongdong silently thought about Hai Ruo soaking in the hot spring with a large bath towel, blushing under the cover of steam.

He swallowed silently.

It was a rare experience. They were able to spend the afternoon alone without being disturbed. The two of them didn't want to go out, so they stayed in a warm and lively house, listening to music, and planning to travel a few days later.

There is nothing more perfect than this.

So the restlessness below is a bit embarrassing. Dongdong (Chu Chengyu) used up his dying energy to get himself out of the toilet, rubbed his special thick towel, and rolled. Right to clean the body.

He has basically done this for uncontrolled impulses in the past few years. Fortunately, his self-discipline is still good, and his impulsiveness is still relatively small.

It's just that when facing Hai Ruo's unconscious temptation, she was a little...uncontrollable.

It's not just him who is a little uncontrollable. The woman named Xu Jing is staring at him, and he can't help but not be wary.

Time flies very fast. When Xu Jing just came back from the exchange, it happened to be a graduate student. Now she is about to graduate. She has to revise and revise her own graduation thesis over and over again, using this and other excuses to entangle Hai Ruo from time to time. , He watched coldly from the side, really can't be an eyesore.

However, he was sure that Hai Ruo still put him first.

After a heavy rain last year, he fell ill with a little cold and almost got pneumonia. Afterwards, it was Hai Ruo who suffered the most.Since then, she has almost never separated from him. She basically took him with him in class. She was almost at home for dinner. Otherwise, she would find a restaurant where pets could be brought. When she had to go out on her own, she would make sure again:

I won't leave you behind, I'm just going out for a while, I swear.

If this continues, Dongdong almost feels that he is going to be drowned by this kind of practical security.

Many people smiled and asked Hai Ruo, "Small your kitten so much, your future husband will be jealous."

Hai Ruo always smiled and replied: "It's enough to have him, no good men will be changed."

Even Xu Jing was jealous and frantic sometimes, and asked her in a bad tone, "What are you doing to this cat so well? Even family members don’t stick together like this every day. What's more," she said. The voice was a little low because of embarrassment, "Are you...are you not afraid that your future partner will be jealous?"

At that time, Dongdong lay on her back gently on Hai Ruo's lap, letting her draw circles on his belly.

"As I said, he is my only family member besides my aunt. I want to be with my family all the time," Hai Ruo said jokingly, "If Dongdong changes one day If he is an adult, then I will marry him. Anyway, they have lived together for six years, which is very convenient."

At that time, Chu Chengyu seemed to be hit by a meteor suddenly in his head. After a while, God discovered that the meteor was entirely made of diamonds. The joy that fell from the sky completely blinded him.

That night, after Xu Jing's HP returned with a negative number, Dongdong jumped onto Hai Ruo's bed and took the initiative to sleep with her. In winter, Dongdong's body temperature was like a stove, Hai Ruo liked it very much.

But that day, listening to Hai Ruo's heartbeat, Dongdong couldn't sleep for a long time.

He was shaking with excitement.

"Auntie, you can come and pick us up the day after tomorrow... Well... Yes, it takes only three hours to drive there. It was developed in a small town nearby. I have a colleague who visited and said that the environment is very good... Well, pay attention to safety, I Now book the room, goodbye aunt."

Dongdong regained his senses from past memories and saw Hai Ruo's shiny eyes and cute gestures of OK.

Hot springs, in his so-called life, this kind of pure relaxation has never happened.

Sometimes in retrospect, he always thinks how his life could be so boring and bad.

Fortunately, even though he was a cat in this life, he was still saved.

Packing up things, early in the morning of the third day, the two of them, sitting in the domineering SUV driven by their aunt, happily rushed to the hot spring filled with milky white mist.

Aunt Haixiang is a very beautiful woman, she is in her fifties, but she just reveals a long-lasting charm that has been polished over time.Unlike Hai Ruo’s obvious ancient bookish air, her aunt’s appearance is very foreign, with burgundy curly hair, gorgeous red lips, delicate eyeliner and carefully trimmed willow eyebrows, but they all show the domineering woman. .

Sometimes Dongdong felt that his aunt gave him a familiar feeling, and he attributed it to the similarity of the two women.

The trip to the hot springs didn't say anything. The two enjoyed a rare happy time with a cat. Even Hai Ruo took a drink that was not used to it. After drunk, he hugged Dongdong and said some silly things. It was so cute.

"Dongdong, you are so handsome. The first time I saw you, I thought you were so handsome."

"According to the current words, the handsome can't close their legs or do I look handsome?"

"It's a pity that animals are not allowed to become fines after the founding of the People's Republic of China. This loss is really big, don't you think, eh?"

At the end of the three-day journey, a few of them returned to everyone. This evening, when Haruo and Dongdong walked upstairs to open the door with a small suitcase, he found a man wrapped in a large black down jacket sitting at their house. In front of the door.

That person raised his head—it was Xu Jing.

"What's the matter, what happened?" Hai Ruo hurried forward and pulled Xu Jing up, probably because of his numb legs. Xu Jing held Hai Ruo's hand while supporting the door frame. , Stood up tremblingly.

"Where have you been." She was a little hoarse when she said.

"I went to travel." Hai Ruo said puzzledly. "Aren't you supposed to be at home now, school is about to start a week, what are you doing so early?"

When I came to you, Xu Jing opened his mouth, but didn't speak.

She did not say that she came here at noon yesterday; she did not say that she called her a lot; she did not say that she waited here yesterday until the lights were dim and almost fell asleep here before going back, Saturday this morning Just a little more and I'm here.

Isn't she really stupid, but the person in love may be that stupid.

Xu Jing opened his mouth again and smirked.

After entering the house, Hai Ruo took the time to make something for Xu Jing to eat. He made a bowl of batter mixed with chopped green onions and baked pancakes, a few ready-made side dishes, and then the spicy smell of ginger overflowed in the kitchen.

It was the ginger soup for her to quench the cold. Thinking of this, Xu Jing sniffed and laughed.

As usual, Dongdong was lying on another sofa far away from her, his ears moved.What's different from usual is that there isn't that kind of sparkling aura unfolding in their one-cat love rival combination.

Xu Jing sensitively perceives something unusual, and doesn't know what's unusual, she swallows the last piece of pancake contentedly, and stretches out her tongue to lick her fingertips.

Today Xu Jing is staying here. There is a single bed in the study. She has slept here many times. She has all the slippers, pajamas and washing utensils available. Whenever she sees her own things occupying Hai Ruo’s room, she will be weird. Get excited.

"By the way, according to your grades, you should be able to reply to graduation in advance." In her pajamas, Hai Ruo asked her.

"Well, probably so." Sitting on the bed, Xu Jing replied indifferently, "It doesn't matter, I'll talk about it in June this year."

"That's not the case." Hai Ruo took out a document from the drawer. "That's it. A professor knows your situation and appreciates you. There will be an exchange meeting in T City two months later. It’s mainly for your graduate students..."

Listening and listening, Xu Jing was a little sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and upon seeing this, Hai Ruo stopped talking, "Sleep first, talk about it tomorrow."

Xu Jing saw the black cat of Hai Ruo's family mumbled a few times at the door like a greeting, and narrowed his eyes uncomfortably.

It seems that this smelly cat slept on the same bed with Hai Ruo.

Ah, I'm so unhappy, tonight... Let's go to the night attack.

I don’t know if Hai Ruo’s meticulous care for her gave her the courage. After midnight, she really hugged her pillow and went to the master bedroom. It happened to see Dongdong lying next to Hai Ruo’s cheeks, thoughtful. Looking at her.

The moonlight shone down, shining on his round eyes...somewhat weird.

Xu Jing encouraged himself in his heart, no matter how clever he was, he wouldn't be fine, he was not afraid of not being afraid, how could he admit his love rivals!

To his surprise, Dongdong actually jumped out of the bed on his own initiative, and his light figure swept a silhouette under the almost pale light. When they walked to the bedroom door, they stood on both sides and faced each other for a while.

I don't know if it was an illusion, what Xu Jing saw in his eyes was... melancholy... and pity.

After that, Dongdong went out and jumped onto the living room sofa.

Xu Jing didn't think too much. At this time, Hai Ruo's lovely sleeping position was full of eyes.Carefully rolling herself into Hai Ruo's quilt, she quietly picked up a handful of Hai Ruo's loose long hair.

He clasped it loosely into his own hand, and couldn't suppress his smile.

She has thought about the situation of sharing the bed with Hai Ruo for countless times, thinking about the countless moments of living with Hai Ruo in the future, and even she has thought about whether to adopt a child, and when two people stay with them when they are old. Look like.

Thinking about it, she sank into the black sweet town.

The next morning, when the sun pierced through the curtains, Xu Jing rubbed his eyes and looked at the extra pile of paper on the head of the bed. The handwriting was very familiar. It was Hai Ruo’s Qingxiu with resolute fonts............

When Hai Ruo and Dongdong returned from buying breakfast, they opened the door and found Xu Jing sitting on the sofa with a sniffle and red eyes. When they saw Hai Ruo, they wiped out the teardrops with their sleeves.

"Why, why don't you want me anymore." Xu Jing choked.

Hai Ruo frowned and thought for a while.

"Do you mean that I recommended you to Professor Wu? He is a recognized Chinese scholar who is consistent with your research interests. Didn't you say that you want to continue studying... Well, you don't want to go to him?"

"I...want to be with you." Xu Jing didn't know how much courage he had gained before uttering this sentence. He only knew that he seemed to have difficulty breathing, his face was hot, and he must be red to death. .

"But I have no way to take doctoral students right now," Hai Ruo seemed to be relieved, "Professor Wu I know, his character and academics are all first-class, and I can definitely learn a lot by following him..."

"No," Xu Jing raised his eyes, his brain was congested, "I said that I want to be with you, be with you forever, be with you forever."

…………

Hai Ruo was too surprised to speak.

"I like you, and I especially like you. I liked you the first time I saw you. I want to live with you and be the person closest to you. No one can compare to the most loved and closest person. I...I love you." She became more and more excited and excited.

"Are you... are you kidding?" Hai Ruo subconsciously put down the porridge in her hand and hugged Dongdong as if he could provide her with support and comfort.

"No." Xu Jing answered decisively.

Hai Ruo took a deep breath, how could she expect that this kind of thing would happen.

Her student, female student!I fell in love with her as a teacher!

"If it's a confession, I won't accept it." After a long time, the solemn atmosphere in the air was about to settle, Hai Ruo said, her voice dry, "You are still too young, and temporary confusion is normal. After a few years, after you have matured emotionally, you may not feel this way when you look back."

"However, no matter what you say, this...I still can't accept it, and it's not discriminatory...In fact, I know a pair of gentlemen like this. They are doing well and I support it." Then, she felt that the incomparably tame words she used to control were so pale and weak, she said a little incoherent.

"This, I just want to say," Hai Ruo thought for a while, raised his head and looked directly at Xu Jing's face that was about to cry, "I know clearly that I treat you as a student, a junior, or a friend. Including different kinds of feelings."

Hai Ruo's expression was gentle but firm, watching Xu Jing tears falling down, but he did not come forward to comfort him.

She knows that this is the best way.

"It's a pity, I don't love you."

She said this, and firmly refused.

Dongdong hugged her arms tightly in her arms, giving her all the support and comfort he could give.

Xu Jing looked at the woman and her cat on the opposite side, cuddling together in the way she was most familiar with, and suddenly felt that it had never been so dazzling.

She had imagined the so-called happy moments thousands of times. At this moment, only fragmented fragments remained. The clearest of these was last summer. On the bicycle, Hae Ruo held her waist tightly in the breeze. The wheels turn, wanting to go to an endless destination.

And the other one is the taste of the dinner last night...I can't taste it again, right.

Xu Jing left, sad and free and easy, and even his smile was shown to Hai Ruo in a strong fight.She successfully completed her defense and followed Professor Wu to do research in accordance with Hai Ruo's idea.

Before leaving, she squatted in front of Dongdong and carefully observed this incredible black cat for the first time.

"Take care of her, stay with her, and love her," she said, turning to leave.

Later, Hai Ruo said to Dongdong like this, again like talking to herself.

"Really, what I said is like discouraging a high school student from a puppies relationship... But I really don't think it is appropriate for her to put her feelings on me. She is not deeply involved in the world, and someone will always appear for her. But , That person will never be me, right, Dongdong."

At this moment, Chu Chengyu truly understood what the blue melancholy in his heart was.

Rabbits and foxes are sad, but things hurt their kind.

Did not take it seriously.

Hai Ruo still regarded Xu Jing's feelings as an adventure on the road of youth, and insisted that she would return to the right road.However, she never knew that the flowers on this fork road that Xu Jing had seen would be a scenery that would be difficult to encounter in a lifetime, and she would never have such a mood to appreciate the picking.

Hai Ruo can't understand what love is.

If he were to look in the mirror now, he would know how a black cat made a sad expression.

At this moment, he thought, if he really forgets his past, just be a cat.

Unfortunately, while he was Dongdong.

He is also Chu Chengyu.
