The airport is spacious and brightly lit.

There were people coming and going around, and various sounds covered Sang Zhi's whimpering sounds. She felt a little embarrassed, and wanted to find a hole to hide herself, but also wanted to stop her tears, pretending that nothing had happened.

Anyway, it's good, at least not like it is now.

I feel extremely ashamed.

The woman is very beautiful and speaks very gently. She looks like a very excellent person. She should be able to help him a lot in life and emotions. Unlike her, she is a willful and rebellious person in everyone's eyes, like a burden, and what she brings him will always be trouble.

From the beginning, it was an extra extra existence.

No use.

He also needs to use extra energy to take care of her while he is busy.

Seeing Sang Zhi not daring to cry, Duan Jiaxu suddenly remembered the first meeting with her.

At that time, she would cry out in a rash manner, without any scruples about anything, and her biggest trouble was what the teacher said today, "Parents".

Have you really grown up?

Or maybe, his tone just now was too over-the-top.

Duan Jiaxu pursed his lips. He had no tissue on his body, so he could only wipe her tears with the sleeve of the jacket that was draped over her: "Stop crying, brother doesn't think you are in trouble."

“…”

"It's cold here, put on your coat."

Sang Zhi twitched his nose and obediently did it.

"You can figure it out yourself, just know that you are wrong." Duan Jiaxu said slowly, "Do you don't want to be angry with you, you are worried that something will happen to you, you are anxious, do you know?"

She lowered her eyes and choked, "I know."

"Get up and go wash your face." Duan Jiaxu glanced at his phone. He seemed a little uncomfortable. He turned his head and coughed twice before continuing, "Brother takes you to have lunch first."

Sang Zhi shook his head slightly: "I'm not hungry."

"Why aren't you hungry?" Duan Jiaxu stood up and said lightly, "You are planning to go on a hunger strike for a man?"

“…”

"Child." Then, Duan Jiaxu looked around and pointed not far away, "Can the toilet be there??"

Sang Zhi paused for a few seconds and nodded.

"Go over and wash your face." Duan Jiaxu thought for a while and said, "Give me your ID card, brother will help you ask about the air tickets, and come to find you later. Don't run around."

Seeing this, the woman next to her spoke, "I'll take her over."

Sang Zhi handed her ID card from her bag, stood up silently, and subconsciously looked towards the woman's direction.

The next second, Duan Jiaxu said: "No."

Listening to these two words, Sang Zhi walked towards the toilet without saying a word. After walking for a while, she suddenly stopped and looked in the original direction.

Sang Zhi could see the two of them standing still.

The woman was wearing a black slim dress, outlining her pretty figure, with retro patterns on the hem of the skirt, and her length was to the middle of the calf. She was about 1.7 meters tall, and she was only half a head shorter than Duan Jiaxu when wearing high heels. She had a smile on her face, and she didn't know what she was saying, and then she reached out and patted his arm.

Then, Sang Zhi saw it and Duan Jiaxu also smiled.

She pursed her lips hard and withdrew her gaze.

Sang Zhi walked into the toilet and looked at her appearance in the mirror. Her eyes were swollen, her nose was red, and there were tears on her face. She lowered her head and washed her face with water over and over again.

Cold water stimulated her skin and re-stimulated her tear glands.

No matter how you wash, you will still cry.

An old lady next to her saw her like this and subconsciously asked, "Little girl, are you okay?"

Sang Zhi took a tissue and lowered his eyes and said, "This water is too cold."

She seemed to have found a reason for the outbreak, and tears fell uncontrollably: "Why is this water so cold..."

"Then don't wash it." The old lady didn't think the reason was strange, so she sighed, took a warm baby from her bag and handed it to her, "It's a bit cold these two days, so I remember to wear more clothes."

Sang Zhi didn't answer and sobbed, "No, thank you grandma."

The old lady didn't say anything, but just comforted her for a few more words and left.

After a while, Sang Zhi reluctantly adjusted his mood. He noticed the suit jacket on his body, and took it off, hugged it in his arms and walked out.

Duan Jiaxu was already waiting for her outside.

This time he was the only one left, and the woman just now didn't know where she went.

Sang Zhi walked over.

Seeing the coat in her hand, Duan Jiaxu frowned: "Why did you take off your clothes?"

"I was afraid I would get dirty just now." Sang Zhi lied casually, his voice with a heavy nasal sound, "And I'm not cold."

She glanced at Duan Jiaxu: "You wear it."

Duan Jiaxu did not move any other things, but stared at her steadily. After a while, he sighed imperceptibly, with his eyebrows lowered: "Is it that my brother's tone just now?"

Sang Zhi shook his head: "No."

"Then are you all forgetting your children?" Duan Jiaxu put on her coat again, "It's only been a year, why do you treat your brother like a stranger?"

“…”

He said slowly: "You made my brother so sad."

Sang Zhi didn't know what to say, so he had to break the topic: "Are there any air tickets?"

"Well, I bought you two o'clock in the afternoon." Duan Jiaxu gave her the boarding pass and ID card in her hand. "I have already helped you get the boarding pass. Let's have a meal first, and I'll take you through security check later."

"Okay." Silence for a few seconds, Sang Zhi said again, "How much is it?"

"Not much money." Duan Jiaxu loosened the tie around her neck, not caring much, "What do you want to eat?"

Sang Zhi: "Everything is OK."

Duan Jiaxu took her to a McDonald's at the airport.

The two of them ordered some things casually, but they didn't seem to have any appetite. He never mentioned the woman just now, nor did he say where she went. Sang Zhi didn't have the courage to ask.

She was afraid that she would not be able to maintain her expression when she heard the word "girlfriend" from him.

Perhaps because he noticed that she was in a bad mood, Duan Jiaxu would say a few words from time to time to make her tease her. His voice was a little hoarse, and he would always turn his head and cough when he spoke.

Sang Zhi couldn't help asking: "Are you sick?"

"Yes." Duan Jiaxu said casually, "I have a little cold."

Sang Zhi was quiet for a while before saying, "You remember to take medicine."

Duan Jiaxu smiled: "Thank you Xiao Sangzhi for your concern."

He played with the box given by Sang Zhi in his hand, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can brother open it and take a look?"

Sang Zhi bit the fries and nodded silently.

There is a tie inside.

Dark red base, black and white stripes embellish.

Duan Jiaxu didn't touch it with his hands. After a few glances, he covered the box with his eyes bent, and he seemed to be in a very good mood: "Thank you, Xiao Sangzhi. After receiving this gift, my brother is one year older, and he is very happy."

Sang Zhi nodded. Soon, she wiped her hands with a tissue, took out all the cash she brought from her schoolbag, and stuffed it into the pocket of her suit jacket.

The two sat for a while.

Seeing that the time was almost over, Duan Jiaxu got up and sent Sang Zhi to the security checkpoint. He gave a few instructions: "After going back, listen to uncles and aunts, study hard, and don't be unhappy about this."

Sang Zhi took off his coat and gave it to him: "I understand."

She paused for a few seconds and suddenly said, "Brother Jiaxu, you don't need to tell me."

——If you are in love, don’t tell me.

Duan Jiaxu didn't understand and his eyelashes moved: "Hmm?"

Sang Zhi didn't explain, and forced a smile and walked backwards in the direction of the security checkpoint. Then, she waved her hand at him: "Then, I hope you are happy every day."

Maybe it was because the window was bought, and Sang Zhi was on the edge of the aisle. She didn't cry anymore. After getting on the plane, she asked the flight attendant for a blanket and covered her head and fell asleep.

She had a dream.

I dreamed that she was not thirteen years old when she met Duan Jiaxu.

But eighteen years old.

She dreamed that she and Duan Jiaxu still had a seven-year age difference, but it was no longer a chasm that could not be crossed.

Dreaming that her dream comes true.

Dreaming of a secret love is also OK, it is not just a matter of one person.

Get off the plane.
