Chapter 273 Zhiyi is back
My childhood sweetheart was in training and my desk mate was still back home, so Fang was happy to be alone and free.
After breakfast, Fang Wei went to the nearby Citizen Park for a run. After that, he took the bag and dug some fertile humus soil beside the small lake in the park. Pond mud like this is best for growing flowers.
After all, spring is coming, and we have to plant more flowers to make it more suitable for the occasion.
Growing flowers is a hobby I have only acquired in this life. When I lived in a rental house in my previous life, I had thought about growing flowers and plants, but I was busy with work and since it was not my own house, I always felt that I didn't have the leisure time. Even though I put flower pots on the balcony, I couldn't grow the flowers and plants well, and soon they were left in a dilapidated state.
After returning home, Fang Wei started tinkering with his flower pots.
After a cold winter, most of the flowers and plants on the balcony were left with only some green leaves, and some were even left with only a bare stem. However, the petunias were very resilient, and even now, there were still a few blooming flowers.
This time, Fang Wei planned to plant roses. He already had some on the balcony, so he didn't need to buy new rose seedlings. Roses are a variety that can survive through branch cuttings.
Fang Wei took the scissors and cut a few branches that had grown stronger last year into small pieces of about ten centimeters, leaving a few axillary buds and cutting off the rest of the leaves.
In order to facilitate rooting, Fang Wei first planted the branches into a fine sand substrate and placed them in a relatively warm and sheltered corner of the balcony. The moist fine sand has good drainage and air permeability. After the branches grow roots, they are transplanted into a fertile humus soil pot. The survival rate of the rose is very high.
There are probably not many high school students like him who have the patience to tinker with flowers and plants. Girls generally prefer boys who grow flowers and pets. After all, people who can take good care of flowers and pets, regardless of their skills, must have a heart that loves life and naturally gives people a very gentle feeling.
The balcony is not a vegetable garden, so it didn't take Fang Wei much time to take care of the flowers and plants. After watering them and washing his hands, Fang Wei returned to the house, took out the papers and exercise books distributed during the winter vacation, and started to finish his homework.
He was alone at home at noon and ate simply.
He took out the package of braised pork he brought from home from the refrigerator, picked out a few pieces with chopsticks, put two pancakes on it, fried an egg, added a few vegetable leaves, and a bowl of fragrant braised pork noodles was his lunch.
He turned on the TV to watch the afternoon news, then took out his cell phone to reply to the messages from his desk mate, childhood sweetheart, and other classmates.
After dinner, Fang Wei cleaned up the kitchen, took out the quilt from the house, turned off the TV, and lay down on the sofa to take a sunny nap.
Since Cai Ling and Zhi Yi are not here, he can finally sleep on the sofa by himself!
Just lie down comfortably! After all, this is the first time he sleeps on the sofa by himself since moving into the little house, right?
It's a good thing to be able to sleep on the sofa freely, as long as you are not forced to sleep on the sofa...
It’s not good to take a nap for too long. After an hour, Fang Wei was already full of sleep. He took the quilt and put it back in the room. He also took Cai Ling’s quilt and pillow and put them back in her room. Otherwise, he would feel awkward when he saw the girl’s quilt and pillow on his bed after going in and out of the room...
The rest of the afternoon was spent studying again. Even though there were no elders at home, Fang Wei's self-discipline was not shaken at all. It can only be said that all his achievements in this life were obtained through his hard work.
If this happened to many adolescent boys of the same age, in such a moment of indulgence without interruption, they would probably take out their phones and enter the strange plus link, and then take out the tissues...
There was a lot of homework for the winter vacation, but Fang Wei was very fast at doing the questions. In just one morning and afternoon, he had finished several sets of math papers.
At 5:15, the alarm rang. Fang Wei then stopped writing, took his keys, put on his shoes, and went downstairs to pick up Cai Ling from the nearby training base.
Tread-tap-
A burst of light and hurried footsteps was heard, followed by a pretty figure flying over and hanging steadily on Fang Wei's back.
"carried me!"
"You can't walk by yourself in broad daylight! I've been studying all day and I'm very tired!"
"Then your brain is tired, and my legs are tired."
Fang had no choice but to carry her on his back.
Compared to when I usually come to pick up Cailing in the evening, there are a lot more people on the street at this time in the evening. When they see the girl riding on the boy, they will more or less cast curious glances at her.
Without waiting for Fang Wei to say anything, Cai Ling felt a little embarrassed. After satisfying her sense of ritual a little, she got off his back obediently, put her little hands in his pockets, stayed close to him, and walked with him to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.
"Zhiyi said she will be back tomorrow morning. Did she tell you?" Fang Wei asked.
"Yes, Zhiyi told me at noon. She also told me... to use her quilt and pillow when I sleep with you tonight."
“…What the hell!”
"I, how would I know what Zhiyi means!"
Cai Ling's face turned embarrassed, and she remembered that she had lent her rackets to Zhiyi and Fang Wei to play tennis.
"I have already taken your pillow and quilt back to your room. You can sleep by yourself tonight."
"Humph... who wants to sleep with you?"
Although she was not polite at all, the girl's body was still very honest.
When Fang Wei was getting ready to go to bed that night, Xu Cailing held Zhiyi's pillow and quilt and broke into Fang Wei's room again, just like she did last night. She was quite smart and prevented Fang Wei from locking the door in advance. While Fang Wei was taking a shower, she ran into his room, lay down on his bed under the quilt and pretended to sleep.
Fang Wei picked up his phone and logged into QQ. There was only one unread message on it without a beginning or an end.
Nanfeng: “(╥﹏╥)”
Ah Wei: “…”
On a cold island night, a girl was lying alone in bed, unable to sleep again...
……
Even Zhiyi's quilt could not successfully seal Cailing.
When the girl woke up early in the morning, she woke up in Fang Wei's bed, just like the night before.
Fortunately, Fang Wei had not washed his underwear this morning. Adolescent boys will rise and fall uncontrollably all night long, but this unconscious state is not actually uncomfortable, unless it happens right before going to bed, then they will be so hot that they can't sleep.
When they were brushing their teeth in the bathroom together, Cai Ling had a suspicious look on her face and secretly glanced down from time to time.
"…What are you looking at?"
"Aren't you going to wash your pants today?"
"…I really put it on you!"
"abnormal!"
The lack of physiological knowledge made the blushing girl even more curious. She couldn't figure out the pattern. Was there a trigger point or was it just a regular pattern that it would happen yesterday but not today? Boys are really weird...
After going downstairs and having breakfast with Cai Ling, Fang Wei received a message from Liu Zhiyi.
Nan Feng: "I'm going back now! I just got on the boat!"
A Wei: "So early? Have you had breakfast?"
Nanfeng: "Yes, are you having breakfast?"
Ah Wei: “Yes.”
Nan Feng: "Yeah, well, I'm already sailing now~!"
Even without adding facial expressions, you can still see the girl's joy and impatience from the text of the conversation.
Fang Wei found it funny, so he had to reply: "Then call me when you are almost at the dock and I will pick you up."
Nanfeng: “Yeah!” Cailing continued to train, and Fang Wei also went to the park to run a few laps. After all, Zhiyi had just got on the boat, and it would take at least an hour and a half to get to the dock.
After running, he returned home, wiped the sweat off his face and changed into fresh clothes. It was almost time. Without waiting for Zhiyi to call him, Fang Wei took the initiative to ride his motorcycle to Xuanzhu Wharf to wait for her.
In the sunny weather, the familiar transport ship was vaguely seen appearing on the sea level. At the same time, Fang Wei's cell phone rang.
"crooked……"
"Is it coming?"
"Uh-huh!"
Her soft voice was heard on the phone. Even though he was Fang Wei, Liu Zhiyi seldom called him on weekdays. After not seeing him for two days, when she heard his voice again, the girl on the boat wished she could fly to the shore like a seagull immediately.
"I, I'll be at the dock in about ten minutes."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I don't want you to wait for me too early..."
"I'm already at the dock!"
"Eh?"
Soon, the transport boat docked smoothly.
Where has anyone ever seen the quiet and ladylike Liu Zhiyi so anxious? As soon as the boat stopped and most of the passengers on the boat hadn't moved yet, she hurriedly carried her large and small luggage and was the first to get off the boat.
From a distance, she saw Fang Wei sitting on a motorcycle waiting for her. Fang Wei was with a group of motorcyclists waiting to pick up customers. He was standing at the place closest to the exit of the covered bridge. He raised his arm and waved at her with a smile.
Under the bright winter sun, the girl only had him in her sight. She walked and ran all the way with her luggage, and finally came to him.
"Why are you in such a hurry? You look so out of breath after running."
"hey-hey……"
The girl didn't say anything, just smiled foolishly.
Seeing that she was carrying things in both hands, Fang Wei took the initiative to stretch out his fingers to help her push back her hair that was blown onto her pretty face by the sea breeze, then took her luggage and tied it up on the motorcycle.
Clearly, before they met, she felt like she had so many things to say to him, but after they met, she seemed to have forgotten what she wanted to say. She just stood there obediently, watching him pack her luggage and looking at his face which was warmed by the sun.
"I thought you were going to come after lunch."
"Well, come back and eat..."
"What did you bring? Why so many?"
"Clothes and stuff. Grandpa brought me a lot of food. We can eat for many days... Oh, right! And this... Grandpa gave you and Cai Ling a red envelope for the start of school. He went back to the room to get it that day, and you were gone when he came out."
"Okay, then help us thank Uncle!"
Fang Wei took the red envelope, feeling a little guilty. He wondered if Uncle Liu would be lonely spending the Lantern Festival at home after bringing someone else's granddaughter here so early.
Today is the ninth day of the first lunar month, and there are only five or six days left until the Lantern Festival. Cai Ling also said last night that they will have a day off for the Lantern Festival, so they might as well make an extra trip and take the two little maids back to her parents' home to celebrate the Lantern Festival before coming back.
"Hey, are we going back for Lantern Festival too?"
"Yes, let's go back together and come back together then. Don't you want to go back?"
"I do! Then I'll tell Grandpa when the time comes!"
This time Liu Zhiyi agreed readily.
Not only Liu Zhiyi was looking at him, Fang Wei was also looking at her. Perhaps because she was going on a long journey, at her grandfather's instruction, she wore thicker clothes than usual. The high collar of her sweater wrapped around the girl's delicate neck. It was not known whether it was because of the heat or excitement, but her pretty face was flushed, which matched her thick winter clothes and made her look particularly cute.
"Are you cold?"
"Touch my hand..."
Liu Zhiyi didn't answer, but just stretched out her little hand in front of him.
Fang Wei took off the windproof gloves he wore when riding a motorcycle and held her slender little hand and touched it.
"Hiss... so cold! Are your hands so cold? Is your body cold?"
"not cold."
Compared with her small hands, Fang Wei's big hands felt so hot. When he held her hands, Liu Zhiyi felt as if her ice-like hands were about to melt and soften.
"Have you been standing on the deck to enjoy the breeze?"
"Um……"
"Idiot. All right, get in the car."
Fang Wei rubbed his big hands to warm them up, then used them to warm her cold little hands a little, then he let go of her hands and got on the motorcycle.
Liu Zhiyi held his shoulders and sat in the back seat. She put her hands in his pockets, then tightened her arms and pressed her whole soft body against him, hugging him tightly.
"Not cold anymore?"
"not cold."
The girl looked very happy, not only because his body was warm, but also because the winter sun was warm. With him standing in front of her, even the cold wind from the motorcycle could not reach her at all.
Fang Wei was not in a hurry to drive fast. He just carried the luggage and rode slowly with her through the city streets under the winter sun.
They chatted while riding, mostly talking about trivial daily things, like questions like "Did you sleep with Cai Ling last night?" that the girl would never ask in QQ when they were face to face.
But not asking doesn’t mean not being curious.
As soon as he got home, while packing his luggage and returning to his room, Liu Zhiyi quickly glanced at Fang Wei's room.
Sure enough, he saw her quilt and pillow on Fang Wei's bed.
Woo woo woo…!
Fang Wei and Cai Ling really fell asleep!
Or the kind that sleeps over night...!
For a moment, Liu Zhiyi looked at her quilt and pillow on Fang Wei's bed and didn't know whether to take them back or not...
"Um... Cai Ling brought it here. Let me take it back for you."
Fang Wei was about to go into the room to get the quilt, but unexpectedly Liu Zhiyi stopped him and said:
"No, you don't need to take it..."
She blushed and stammered, "Anyway, we have to sleep at noon..."
The girl made up her mind that she would never sleep on the sofa during lunch break even if there were only two of them.
Five days of five-hour lunch break is not as good as Cai Ling's one night...
Wow...it's still a loss!!
(A little less today, I wish everyone a happy winter solstice~)
