Long years (103)

"Why are you back?" Qingning suddenly woke up with a fright. When the cold wind blew, she shivered. Yan Yan opened the door and walked in. She quickly closed the door. "Open the door and wear more clothes. Why don't you look through the peephole?"

Will you open the door if you look at it?”

When Qingning saw him come in, she took off her shoes, looked for slippers in the shoe cabinet, put them on, looked around, found the kitchen, and carried the dishes in. A voice came from inside: "Go wash up, and have breakfast later."

Qingning rubbed her forehead and looked at the time again. It was only seven o'clock now.

He was carrying vegetables in his hand. He must have gone to the vegetable market. He must have been here at six o'clock anyway.

Qingning went to the bathroom and asked as if remembering something: "How did you get in?"

It's not easy to open the door.

Strictly felt a little guilty, "I came in with the auntie who was buying groceries."

You can follow your aunt to enter the unit building door, but what about the gate of the community.

She glanced at the shoes he had changed into and saw a piece of patent leather rubbed off the uppers, "You jumped over the wall to get in!"

If so, he must have arrived in the middle of the night. He just stayed downstairs.

Otherwise, he could easily break in?

Qingning was almost furious. He went to get some medicine from the medicine box, poured some hot water and took it to the kitchen. "Drink it quickly." He said, "Tell me if there is something wrong with your brain. You are climbing over the wall in the middle of the night to call people."

I've caught you. Do you want your student status? You're still dressed like this..." She became more and more suspicious, "You can't sneak out..."

"No!" Yan Yan quickly said, "What are you thinking about? Training ended at eight o'clock last night, and I bought a train ticket for eleven o'clock..."

The eleven o'clock train.

From Shicheng to Beijing, the express train takes two hours and forty minutes, usually a little over three hours. The slowest train only takes four hours.

In other words, he probably arrived at two or three in the morning.

There was so much snow outside, so he wore just this and stood outside for half the night.

"Why didn't you call me and ask me to open the door for you?" Qing Ning looked into his eyes and asked.

Strictly smiled, just like when he returned to the county town from the capital, his smile was bright and sunny, "You don't get enough sleep every day..."

So you idiot, just wait outside?

Qingning looked at Yan Yan who had taken off his coat, picking vegetables neatly, and took two steps back. "Jian Yan..." she called out.

Yan Yan raised his head and looked at her, "Aren't you going to wash your face?"

Qingning pursed her lips: "I know what you are thinking..."

Yan Yan's hand paused for a moment, and he looked at Qing Ning: "Then what?"

Qingning avoided the sight a little, "I'm actually a little unsure..."

"What do you want to make sure of?" Strictly put down the food in his hand, and then smiled, "You don't need to make sure of anything. Just do what you want to do. Just do it the same as before."

But you are different from before.

Qing Ning held these words in his mouth for a long time, not knowing what to say.

But Yan Yan said it to herself: "You are not sure if you like me. You are not sure how much you like me. You don't know if you like me, how long this like will last. What's more important is that you are very busy now.

I don’t have time to think about this, right?”

Yes! All right!

Strictly said: "Then why are you uncomfortable? To be honest, the time I spend with you is longer than the time I spend with my parents. Not to mention my other brothers and sisters..."

You understand me and I understand you.

Not a relative but better than a relative.

A comrade in the dormitory was injured during training. He called his girlfriend. She didn't arrive, but his sister arrived overnight. At that time, he thought, if it was me who was injured, would Qingning come? The answer is yes.

Yes. She can come! She will rush over as soon as possible without stopping, and she can come and help her deal with all her troubles. She will be anxious, she will be anxious, and she will be worried and not know what to do.

He thought that for sure.

So I thought that the comrade broke up with his girlfriend, and then the two really stopped contacting each other.

He was a little anxious before, fearing what if Qing Ning refused and the two of them would be strangers from now on. But at that moment, he suddenly understood. Whether he agreed or refused. They were so close, and this relationship should not be because of

Stay away from anything.

So, he came.

There are two stoves, one is egg soup, and the other is fried steamed bun slices.

But he smiled and told Qing Ning what he was thinking during this time, "You are still you, and I am still me. You do what you want to do, but no matter when, I will always be there... Is this okay?"

Qingning sniffed, what should she do if she was incited?

She went over to take a spoon and tasted the soup, and curled her lips: "It tastes really bad...can't my family afford salt?"

I disliked the soup being too bland.

Seeing that she was about to put salt in it, Yan Qian quickly stopped her, "Wash your face and don't make any more trouble. Eat the steamed bun slices dipped in sesame sauce to make the soup lighter."

Qingning went to the bathroom with a grin, and vaguely heard Strict's voice: "It's snowing, there are not many dishes in the market, and the prices have increased. I have to go out to eat at noon."

"Hmph..." Qingning spit out the mouthwash, "You don't know how to make lunch, do you..." Then she asked, "Nowadays, the teaching in military schools is comprehensive enough. Do the cooking classes have to have military students? You

Who did you learn it from?”

Strictly serve food outside, "and the master chef in the canteen, all of whom are demobilized from the field army's cooking class..."

"Why didn't I know you had this hobby before?" Qing Ning casually washed his face with water and came out. He pulled a chair to sit at the dining table and looked at the breakfast. It was not bad.

Yan Yan sat down opposite her and said, "Both of us don't know how to cook. We will starve to death."

Qingning paused while holding the steamed bun slices between her hands, "Why do you and I need to be together?" She hummed in her heart and didn't answer.

Strictly smiled, "Now try the soup. Is it still bland?"

After dinner, Qingning wanted to wash the dishes, but Strictly stopped her, "I'm going out in a while, why don't you rub some oil on your face? Go ahead!"

After strictly washing the dishes, Qingning didn't even change into pajamas and sat on the sofa holding her laptop.

Yan Yan leaned over and said, "Aren't you going out? There are still things to be busy with..."

Qing Ning said 'hmm', "I'm busy. Don't disturb me and go to sleep quickly..."

Strictly looked at Qing Ning, and then smiled. He probably knew that he had just finished training and had not slept all night, so he was telling himself to catch up on his sleep.

He lay down on the sofa and said, "Call me when you're done."

When they started snoring, Qingning took the quilt and covered him quietly.

Now when I look at Strictly, I feel that I have lost a lot of weight, my face has shoe edges, and people who never snore have started to snore. This is really tiring.

She couldn't do anything else with her notebook in hand, so she went to the bedroom and called the dormitory to see who was there.

Yuan Yuan answered the phone, "What's wrong?"

"Do me a favor." Qingning lowered her voice, "Go and buy me a coat..."

"Sister, you don't have enough clothes?" Yuan Yuan looked at the heavy snow outside, "Do you have to buy some in this kind of weather?"

"Not for me. Buy me a men's coat. I'm 1.85 meters tall and have a relatively standard body shape. I don't care about the style, as long as it's warm." Qing Ning said.

This means, "How old do people wear it?"

"Our peers." Qing Ning added, "It doesn't matter whether you are high or low, I will replenish the money for you later. I will help you run over and then deliver it to the gate of Huaqing Jiayuan. I will pick it up. Please run over and I will treat you later."

Have a meal."

Eating is a trivial matter, but from what I hear, there is something going on over there, little girl.

Yuan Yuan yelled, "Pick up the money, hurry up, I only have fifty left."

Then he took Wang Xiao and Zhou Yanan with him and didn't go far. He found a stall owner and spent eighty-eight dollars to buy a down jacket. It was long and black and didn't pick on skin color or person.

Qing Ning went out quietly, fearing that the sound of closing the door would wake up Yan Yan, so she only kept the door ajar but didn't close it at all.

Qing Ning stuffed a hundred people at the gate of the community, "I'll treat you later, you have the final say where we go."

"Only eighty-eight." Yuan Yuan spread his hands, "We have spent all the money we have..." We will talk about the change later.

"Purchase some change to buy fruit and put it in the dormitory to eat together." Qingning stuffed another hundred dollars into it, "Relief money. If you see there are scarves and gloves that you need to buy, buy them quickly. You can pay me back anytime."

It’s been half a semester and I’m all familiar with it. No one cares about it.

Qing Ning pointed inside and said, "I'll take you in another day. It's not convenient for me today."

The three of them smiled ambiguously, and then ran back, "Go back and spend time with your little lover..."

Really not a little lover.

Qingning carried her clothes home and quietly pushed the door in, only to be stunned. Yan Yan fell asleep on the sofa in the dark, but Ji Chuan sat on the sofa opposite and faced Yan Yan's direction, feeling bitter and resentful.

Seeing that Qingning was back, Ji Chuan stood up. Just as he was about to speak, Qingning let out a "shush" and pointed upstairs.

Ji Chuan glanced at the person on the sofa, said "ha", and then raised his feet.
