Chapter 18: Snow - 1
"If you don't have eyes, won't you walk well?"
As the person who was hit by Yuan Meng fell down, a sharp and harsh voice also came.
"I'm sorry." Yuan Meng stretched out her hand to help her up, only to find that the person who was hit turned out to be An. She immediately pulled back the outstretched hand and turned her apology into adeed look.
"Ran, are you all right?" Seeing this, Han Heya hurried to help Anan sitting on the ground.
"Yuan Meng, if you dare to do it, you dare to do it. You should help him up and apologize when you bump into a stranger. Is it necessary for you to pull back the outstretched hand when you see me in the same school?" Anan sat on the ground and looked at her, as if she had no intention of getting up.
When Yuan Meng saw this, he was uncertain about whether to pull her up. Seeing that she was a little embarrassed and didn't want the situation to be deadlocked, I went over to drag her up.
"Thank you." Anan got up and patted the bottom of her skirt, smiled and walked to the flower dance auditorium with Han and Ya.
"Why did you pull her up? What if there is fraud?" After they went far away, Yuan Meng taught me that there should be no intention to harm others, and there must be no intention to prevent others.
"How cool the ground is in winter, and there are so many people around, what can she do? If you leave her on the ground and leave regardless, she will go to the teaching office to bite you afterwards and say that you did it on purpose. Who can prove it to you?
"But have you forgotten how she didn't tie you away in front of so many people at that time? After all, we can't take her too lightly." Yuan Meng looked at An's far back and sounded the alarm bell to me.
"That's different. Look how much she has changed now. As long as I'm not close to Situ Lei, she can treat us like any ordinary classmate around us. Have you ever seen her smile before? Will you say thank you to us?
"Well, but no matter what you think of her now, she will always be a madman in my eyes."
Looking at the direction of Anan's departure, Yuan Meng's eyes were difficult to withdraw. I'm afraid she will never forget how Anan borrowed her hand at the beginning, which made me almost lose my voice.
This has also become a long-lasting and unhealing scar in her heart.
Even if I didn't blame her or hate her at the beginning, the bottle of medicine came out of her hands, and that self-reproach would always follow Yuan Meng like a shadow.
Ran, why didn't you take the opportunity to teach them a lesson just now? Yuan Meng deliberately didn't give you steps in public.
In the bathroom, Han and Ya did not forget to stir up trouble everywhere.
"Haya, you can't be impulsive if you want to win the battle. Remember, it is easy to hide from hidden arrows. Last time we were too flamboyant that we have been wary of me so far. Anan said as she rubbed the hand that I had pulled hard in the sink.
Han Heya seemed to understand what An Ran meant and smiled charmingly in the mirror.
Yuan Meng and I came to the auditorium. There was nothing special about the appearance. It was still a combination of the stage and a dense row of seats.
"Mengmeng, Luolin." Liu Ziyang shouted and waved to us in the control room on the stage.
"Liu Ziyang, what are you doing there?" Yuan Meng raised her head and shouted up.
Liu Ziyang waved to us in the control room. He seemed to be so busy that he didn't have time to greet me and Yuan Meng.
Seeing that he didn't have time to pay attention to us, Yuan Meng and I followed his direction to his console. Sure enough, there was a busy scene inside. I saw him and several other classmates debugging things in front of the computer that I couldn't understand at all. Then direct the work outside through the window at any time.
And at this moment, Yuan Meng also stared at the clean and serious boy in front of him, motionless. It can be seen that Liu Ziyang, who is working hard now, has fascinated her.
I reached out and shook my hand in front of Yuan Meng. After confirming that her soul was no longer on her body, I quietly left here.
He was reluctant to come here, but now he stays in the auditorium obediently like a domestic cat and follows Liu Ziyang to make final preparations without knowing anything.
The winter in Beijing is short and long, and it is dark after 5 o'clock. Lanterns and Santa Claus can be seen almost everywhere except people.
I sat in the car and looked through the window. In fact, their world was so close to me, but sometimes I felt that it was a world I couldn't touch.
As soon as my parents saw me coming back, they began to cook. They were very busy. Because the ingredients were ready before I came back, we started eating soon.
The same six dishes, one soup, and a cake. My mother said that even if there are only three people to eat, they must make six kinds. Everything is the same as before, and the only thing that has changed is the number on the candle, which has become 18.
Although this digital candle is beautiful, it burns very fast. As soon as it is lit, I dare not delay making a wish immediately. I'm afraid that if I don't make a wish after the candle is burned, I will lose it.
At the age of 18, the eighteenth wish of my little life.
[I hope our family can always live such a happy life.]
After repeated meditation three times in my heart, I blew out the candle and floated up with a burst of smoke. Happy 18th birthday, Xia Luolin. I whispered to myself.
"My Luoluo has become a big girl. Come and raise your glass and wish the baby a happy birthday." Mom raised the glass as she spoke, and the three of them splashed a glass of wine.
"luoluo, just drink less. This wine is very fermented." Mom stopped the glass I had just prepared to drink.
"Well, I know." I don't care.
After dinner, I hugged my father's arm and nestled on the sofa with him to watch TV. My mother couldn't be idle for a moment like ADHD. She always ran all over the house this time, as if there was always endless work at home.
"Don't get tired of being together. Don't pay attention to how old your daughter is." Mom is educating us.
"She loves to live with me. Anyway, it's my daughter, and she pays attention to it." With that, Dad kissed my hand.
"Yes." I agreed and raised my hand more emotionally. But in fact, my head is already dizzy, as my mother said, today's drunken reaction.
"You two are an old pervert and a little pervert, and I stand up." Mom said and rolled up her sleeves in front of the TV, asking us to see the hairs standing on her arms.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. It was already dark. After my mother took a look through the door mirror, she didn't know how to describe it, and there was a lingering lingering paltry: "Honey, come to see what this is at the door?"
"Nonsense, it must be a person who can knock on the door. What else can it be?" Dad laughed at the door mirror, and then there was an expression on his face that he couldn't describe.
"Why don't you open the door? It's not good to quarrel with the neighbors later." As Dad opened the door, although I didn't know what was going on at the door, I was still watching TV in the living room, but I still faintly heard some unusual sounds, but I didn't care too much.
"Merry Christmas, dear children. I'm from a distant planet. Are there any children in the room? I want to give her a gift."
A guy disguised as Santa Claus spoke intermittently in a very fluent Mandarin and listened to the accent. Obviously, it was a foreigner disguised.
Mom and Dad looked at each other in consterance, and it was probably difficult to organize language to communicate with this unknown object for a while.
The Santa Claus was a little embarrassed when he saw this scene, so he had to round himself: "I'm going to go in and give gifts to the children. The planet is very busy, and I have to rush back to send blessings to the next child." As he spoke, he squeezed into the room.
"Eh, don't come in. I just cleaned up the house." When Mom saw that he didn't take off his shoes, she walked into the house and quickly stopped him.
"Yes, leave gifts and so on to other children. My child is not young. Go back."
Seeing that Santa Claus really had nothing to do, he could only reluctantly say, "All right."
"This is a greeting from that planet. Let's give it to the children in the room." With that, he took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from the big package and put it on the shoe rack at the door, and then ran out with lightning speed.
Before his parents realized what was going on, he had run away without a trace and disappeared in the middle of the night. And my mother, a curious person, even chased out to see if he was renting a taxi or if the legendary reindeer would really appear.
"Who came just now?" I sat on the sofa and didn't know that such a pleasant scene happened in front of my house.
"Alien will give you a gift." Mom said lightly.
"Alien?"
My mother likes to talk too much, so she didn't take it seriously at all. I didn't believe it until she gave me the gift left by Santa Claus, and then complained about why they didn't let him in. I have never seen Santa Claus with a foreign accent in my old age.
Facing the gift, I slowly opened the gift box full of curiosity.
But what appeared in it made me more convinced of my mother's words. The person who just came to my house was indeed an alien. Because the box contains a strange red sphere, which is soft and elastic to the touch.
I carefully took it out and found a piece of paper under it, with a few words crookedly written on it, "When you are in a bad mood, try to hit me and crush me."
......
I pinched the ball hard and threw it to the ground as written on the paper.
"Puff..."
In an instant, it was like a flattened tomato, and then slowly gathered together and returned to the red sphere.
The night is deep, and I don't know how the school is going. Is it over? I thought alone on the balcony.
Suddenly, there were blizzards of snow in the sky, and pieces fell gently.
I thought it wouldn't snow this Christmas. My parents have gone back to their room to watch TV, and my wine seems to have reached its limit at this moment. I took a dress casually and secretly opened the door to enjoy the snow.
The cold wind made use of the wine to roll up my sleeves and stretch out my arms, letting snowflakes fall on my skin to feel its softness and coolness.
In this way, I sat there with my arms stretched out for a long time. Not only did I not wake up, but I became more and more dizzy. Due to too much snow deposited on the arm, the skin is already a little numb. I quickly shook my arm and let it return to my warm clothes to rest.
The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and large pieces like goose feathers are constantly falling down. It's so beautiful...
I gently rotated my wheelchair like dancing in the snow, humming an unknown song.
At this time, a man's voice came.
" Luolin, come into the house."
