Chen Ran glanced at the wall clock on the wall. It was already five forty. She shook her head and said, "It's too late. The last bus is at five thirty and has already left. Our place is too remote and there is no bus at night."

When people go to the city, the last bus from the city to here is at six o'clock.

"It's all my fault. I was a little excited just now and didn't look at the time. Tingdong, do you think this will work? There is a phone in the small shop not far from us. You can call home and then stay at my sister's place for a while.

It’s late, can you go back tomorrow morning?”

Tingdong nodded and said: "Then I have no choice but to disturb my sister. There is no need to make a call. I often live outside and I am used to it. My parents are not worried about me. It's just too embarrassing to cause trouble to you."

Chen Ran said with a straight face: "Is it possible that Tingdong doesn't want to make friends like our sisters? Since you can agree to help Yanyan transfer to another school without hesitation, what a favor it is. We can do whatever we think of."

If you can't do that, why are you so polite if you just have a meal and stay overnight at your sister's house?"

Tingdong couldn't be too polite, so he had to say, thank you, Sister Ran. In fact, I have wanted to call you sister for a long time, but I just saw that you were too serious, so I didn't dare, hehe!"

Chen Ran also smiled: "Maybe it's because of work, but I tend to keep a straight face. Maybe it will be better if we are familiar with each other. Yanyan, you sit with Tingdong, and my sister will cook for you."

Tingdong smiled and said, "Why don't Yanyan and I help you? I can help with cooking. I can do it myself when I'm alone."

Chen Ran walked towards the kitchen in the back with a smile, and said as he walked: "You should rest, Yanyan is getting more and more help, so I might as well do it myself."

Chen Yan stuck out her tongue and whispered: "Who gave me a capable sister? Even my superiors don't let me do it. I have become lazy. How can I get married if I can't do anything in the future?"

Tingdong smiled and said, "That's easy to do. Yanyan is so beautiful. In the future, she will marry a rich man and there will be a nanny and chef at home. Then you won't have to do any work, and you will enjoy a happy life, hehe!"

Yanyan glared at him and said: "Forget it, I don't know anything, what's the use of just being beautiful, why are you marrying me?"

"Okay, of course I can't ask for such a beautiful wife. I wish I could hold her in my hand all day long. Why would I let you do anything? Just do the same job well, hehe!" Tingdong deliberately teased.

explain.

Yanyan looked at Tingdong with some confusion and said: "Just do one thing, what is that?" After thinking about it, she suddenly realized, her face turned red, she came over and beat Tingdong's arm with her hand and whispered.

: "I'm going to die, you scoundrel, how dare you talk nonsense? I'll beat you to death, beat you to death."

Tingdong dodged and whispered in the same voice: "Why did you hit me? I didn't say anything bad, what are you thinking?"

Yanyan said reluctantly: "Don't think I don't know. There are many rural children in the school I go to. They will say anything when they are crazy. What good thing can a man and a woman do if they work together in the same life? You are a bad person and a bad guy."

Tingdong deliberately said with a sullen face: "Classmate Yanyan, don't you have too complicated thoughts for a girl? When did I talk about men and women? I just said that it is enough to do the same job well. What I said is to put on clothes."

That’s fine, just dress up beautifully, or dress yourself up well. Are you thinking too much?”

Chen Yan was speechless for a moment: "No, that's not what you meant just now."

"What do you mean I didn't mean it this way? How do you know I didn't mean it this way? Did you crawl into my belly to see it?" Tingdong looked at Yanyan with a smirk on his face and said.

Chen Yan turned her head away from him and said, "Ignore you. You are a bad guy who knows how to bully others."

Tingdong looked at Chen Yan's charming and naive look, and felt very warm and happy in his heart. He said emotionally: "Yan Yan, I am very happy to see you happy. I really hope you can always be so happy.

"

Chen Yan's face turned red and she lowered her head, murmuring: "Are you willing to coax others to be happy like this all your life?"

Tingdong was about to answer: Yes. Suddenly, Siyu's beautiful smiling face appeared in front of him. He swallowed the words that were on his lips and changed them to "I will try my best to make you happy."

The literal meaning is similar, but the connotation is completely different.

Chen Yan sighed leisurely and said, "Can I know the name of that girl?"

At this moment, Tingdong's heart was filled with tenderness and longing for Xiao Yu, especially the scene of her pale face holding a glass bottle filled with paper cranes and lucky stars, which was clearly imprinted in his mind.

He blurted out: "Her name is Wang Siyu. She is a part of my life. She is a girl just like me. You will see her in the future."

Chen Yan didn't speak for a long time. After a full minute, she asked softly: "Is she beautiful? Haha! It's a bit silly of me to ask. She must be very beautiful. Otherwise, how could you be so devoted to her?"

Tingdong smiled: "There is something wrong with what you said. Are only beautiful girls capable of being loved by boys?"

"Isn't it?" Chen Yan asked, looking into Tingdong's eyes with a half-smile.

"Hehe!" Tingdong smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed the subject and said, "There's something I don't understand. Why did Zhan Gui tell me that your sister opened a supermarket?"

The sudden change of topic made Chen Yan a little uncomfortable. After thinking for a while, she said with a smile: "Oh, this matter is Zhan Gui's wishful thinking. That's the way he is, he does whatever he thinks of.

"He bought a small supermarket and gave it his sister's name, but my sister never accepted it. He thought his sister was a useless kid, hehe! He is a bumpkin."

Only then did Tingdong understand what was going on. It seemed that Zhan Gui was really caring about Chen Ran.

At this moment, Tingdong and Chen Yan had arrived in the yard.

After all, it is a suburb, and the yard is very spacious. Not far from the door, there is a flower bed filled with various flowers. It is not in season yet, and there are basically no flowers in bloom. There are only a few unknown small yellow flowers dotting it.

Chen Ran naturally took Tingdong's hand, pointed at the little yellow flower and said: "That's me, blooming in obscurity, withering without anyone appreciating it. No one knows that she once had a beautiful vision, hoping to be the most beautiful among the flowers.

.”

Tingdong put his arms around her slender waist and said softly: "Yanyan, you have just turned eighteen and your life has not officially begun yet. Although you have experienced some hardships, the light is still ahead, as long as you work hard."

, if you fight for it, you will always have the opportunity to bloom your youth,

"Maybe you have been living a wandering life with your sister for the past two years, which has made you depressed. It will be better in a few days. You will have a group of new friends. We have initially planned to have an outing next week, and you will participate.

They are all our young people, there are about twenty of us. When the time comes, you will have more contact with everyone, and your mood will naturally become brighter."

Chen Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to you, but you have to stay with me when the time comes, otherwise I won't be familiar with others."

Tingdong smiled: "It seems that you are not a particularly shy girl. You have gradually become familiar with everyone. I will try my best to spend more time with you. However, since the event is organized by me, I don't want to be too left out.

Others, so when the time comes, I will introduce two particularly cheerful and good girls to you and let them play with you more."

Chen Yan pouted and said coquettishly: "I don't care, anyway, you have to be within people's sight and people can find you, otherwise I will be flustered, and it will be embarrassing for you to cry when the time comes, hehe!"

Tingdong touched her head and said: "We are going for an outing. My eldest lady is not hiding somewhere. There are only about twenty people in total. How can we not find her?"

Chen Yan took the opportunity to lean on Tingdong and said: "That's pretty much it. Have you really never participated in such an event? Don't embarrass your talent when the time comes."

Tingdong stroked Chen Yan's hair, looked at the environment in the yard and said: "Actually, it's really nice here. The environment is quiet and the air is good. Unfortunately, it's too far away from the city, so it's not convenient to go out and play.

"

Chen Yan leaned on his shoulder and said: "Actually, if you are not too tired, there is a bus stop about two kilometers away. The bus stops there late, and there are two lines that end there. The latest one

The first flight is not until seven o'clock in the evening."

Tingdong looked at the domestic Shanghai brand watch on his wrist. It was almost six o'clock. It would take less than twenty minutes to walk two thousand meters. If he left now, he would still be able to catch the bus in time.

He looked up at Chen Yan and saw that she was looking at him with a resentful look. He felt a little pain in his heart and said softly: "You don't want me to go, do you?"

Chen Yan didn't say anything, but the look in her eyes made it clearer than anything she could say.

Tingdong sighed and said: "Forget it, I won't go back. My sister has cooked all the food. It would be very rude to leave at this time."

Chen Yan's eyes lit up, she put her arms around his neck, kissed him on the face, and said, "This is your reward, hehe! In fact, my sister doesn't want you to leave either, didn't you see?

fool!"

Tingdong touched the place where Chen Yan had kissed him, as if he was caught in a memory, and his heart was filled with warmth. He did not feel lust, but a warm affection. He said slowly: "Yan Yan

, I think you look like my little sister."

Chen Yan burst into laughter: "It's shameless to say that, you are only fifteen, and I am already eighteen. I want to be your sister, okay?"

But Tingdong said seriously: "I just feel like you are like a little sister, a little sister who needs my protection."

Chen Yan snuggled into Tingdong's arms again and said softly: "Why don't people want to have an older brother to protect them? From now on, whether it is an older brother or a younger brother, you have to protect them and not let them be bullied by others.
