After entering the midsummer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the day of the senior high school entrance examination is getting closer and closer.

After school that day, Jiang Lu packed up as usual, and when the bell rang, he whispered, "Qian'an, I'll go first."

Before she was about to put it on hold, Qi An'an would still say, "Hey, wait for me", but now she's used to it - once he returns to the days before liberation, he won't wait for her.

If you say you don't go together, you won't go together, especially trustworthy. She had to say pitifully, "Well... be careful on the road."

Jiang Lu's hand stopped lightly, but he still picked up his schoolbag and turned away.

"Hey, Qi An'an, do you want to go to the newly opened snail noodles at the school gate later?" This week, Yu Tianyang once again moved in front of Qi An'an, and while packing his things, he excitedly suggested.

Qi Anan shook his head: "I won't go, my brother will go home tonight, I have to accompany him to dinner."

"Okay, then you escaped the robbery."

Qi Anan couldn't help laughing, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I want to ask you, what do boys as big as you like now?"

"what do you like?"

Qi An'an had to add: "For example, what kind of birthday gift do you want to receive the most?"

"Me, I think..." Yu Tianyang just started his head, "hiss": "Are you going to buy me a gift? But my birthday is early, what are you doing so early? And the birthday gift is here. What you want is a surprise, and it’s boring to say it.”

Qi Anan had no choice but to explain to him: "I know you're still early, don't worry, your surprise is indispensable. But this time it's not you, it's me... a distant relative who wants to buy... a birthday present for... her cub, but I don't want to. know what to send."

It turned out to be like this, Yu Tianyang thought seriously: "Shoes, I think shoes are good, you believe me, no man can resist the temptation of shoes; or... keyboard, when I tell you about playing games, keyboard It's really the key; the headset is also ok, see if he needs it or not; otherwise, give him another phone, or buy a tablet or something. What else can I think about..."

After thinking about it for a long time, Yu Tianyang waved his hand: "Actually, I think it's almost the same, a middle-aged woman can give such a wonderful gift, her son absolutely likes it, you go back and tell your relatives, just from what I said above. Pick one of them."

Qi An'an, who was wearing a middle-aged woman's hat, had a black line on his face, and nodded without a smile: "Okay, I understand, you can go eat your snail noodles."

She thought about it a lot, and originally wanted to ask her eldest nephew to see if she could think about it, but none of his suggestions fit the situation.

Qi Anan frowned in distress: What should buy for her cub? It's his birthday in a few days.

...

When Jiang Lu returned home, Qin Meng was not there. There were some clothes that Qin Meng had changed in a hurry in the room he lived in. After all, this was Qin Meng's utility room, not his bedroom.

Jiang Lu expressionlessly picked Qin Meng's clothes aside, and just after washing his hands, his cell phone rang.

"Hey, Xiaojiang, are you still renting my house? You said two days ago to think about it again, have you thought about it?" There was a woman's voice full of anger on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Lu did not answer immediately. He had long been optimistic about that house, not far from Xincheng No.1 Middle School.

The house is in a high-end community, which is closed and safe, with excellent privacy. There is no compound like an old community, and most of the neighbors are not familiar with each other. Although there is no smoke, but there is no gossip.

He had made an agreement with the landlord that he would move in when the tenant over there was due to move out.

But a few days ago, he had been shaking.

One night, when he took Qi An'an home, he turned around a remote alley and there was no one around. For some reason, a question that had been lingering in his heart for a long time suddenly asked in a low voice: "Qian An'an, what do you want? …”

The girl next to him smiled ignorantly at him, and said in her clear and pleasant voice, "What's the matter? What are you thinking?"

"nothing."

He wanted to know where she would take the exam, and his paranoia became more and more serious.

After all, Qi An'an will definitely not be admitted to Xincheng No. 1 Middle School. There is a new city that has just been demarcated. The location is remote and far, and there is little infrastructure. There aren't even decent malls and movie theaters.

But in the end he restrained and said nothing.

That day, after the beast rolled down the stairs, he sat on the edge of the empty, silent street and smoked for a long time.

The first time he smoked, he was already familiar with it.

In the flickering and flickering smoke stars, he couldn't help sketching another person's face in his mind.

The little girl was afraid that he would be cold, that he would be hungry, that he would be hurt and that he would be hurt. She shielded him from storms and thunder, and also shielded him from rumors. Protected him again and again.

It was him who overestimated himself, and it turned out that he would also be like a young man who was in love. Just because of his extraordinary precocious intelligence, his ignorance period was too short.

But where does he fit in?

The blood running through his body is filth that can never be washed away, and his birth is a stain. He is just a chess piece that is used by others to seek wealth and honor, and he is destined to have no way to match the beautiful things in the world.

Jiang Lu looked down at his hands, the smoke and stars dotted and disappeared at his fingertips.

He smiled very lightly, how did he look like a good person?

A good man would not be as dirty from skin to bone as he was. Every word is full of sweet words, such as pounding heart, and it is really tarnished completely when placed on him.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Lu rubbed his brows, and while he was still sensible, let her go and stay away from her.

"I rent it," Jiang Lu said in a low voice, "if you're ready, I can move in at any time."

His life should have moved forward according to the track he had set, come alone, pass hastily, and walk silently, that is.

Qi An'an has lost countless brain cells in the past two days preparing birthday gifts. It stands to reason that she is a hardcore book lover who can analyze this character at her fingertips, but now she can't decide what gift is suitable.

In the book, Jiang Lu was at a low point in his life at this time. He was inferior and disgusted with himself. The birthday that other children would look forward to early was an ordinary and even disgusting day for him.

But Qi Anan remembered that in the book, Jiang Lu heard the phrase "Happy Birthday" for the first time when he was twenty-eight years old. One of his employees happened to see it that day and said something casually. At that time, his face was not without emotion.

He couldn't choose to come into this world and grow up hard. In fact, he hoped that someone could tell him that he was not that annoying.

Qi An'an's thoughts drifted to the plot of the original book for a while, and then remembered that Jiang Lu smiled at her in the sun in the early morning. When thinking about it, butler Chen knocked on the door: "Miss, I'm in."

He came in with a plate of fruit and saw Qi Anan sitting at the desk frowning slightly, thinking she was studying hard, with a kind smile on her face: "Miss, please rest for a while, come up after school, never leave the house, eat Some fruit."

Qi Anan took it with a smile: "Thank you Uncle Chen, by the way, is my brother coming back soon?"

"Well, I just said that I will be home in five minutes," Butler Chen scratched the back of his head, "I just feel that the young master is a little unhappy, as if he is angry, and the young lady will coax him later."

"My brother is not happy?"

Qi An'an's heart sank at first, but after thinking about it, he reacted again. Qi Yan is smart and skilled, and has never suffered a loss in business. Even if there is really something that makes him unhappy, he can also cover up the peace and pretend that he doesn't care, it should not be unsatisfactory at work.

It can make Butler Chen hear that his tone is not good, there must be something that he is powerless to return to, and he is extremely angry.

What else could it be?

"Uncle Chen, don't worry! I'm going to coax my brother, and I'll pick him up at the door!" Qi Anan patted his forehead, jumped up from his chair and ran downstairs.

Qi Anan waited downstairs for less than a minute before Qi Yan came back.

As soon as he entered the door, Qi An'an showed a big smile and took the things from Qi Yan's hand diligently: "Brother, you are finally back, are you hungry so late? Hurry up and eat, I will wait for you."

Qi Yan's face was gloomy at first, but when he saw Qi An'an's eyes softened, a trace of guilt flashed across his eyes when he heard her say this.

"An An, have you been waiting for me?" Qi Yan hesitated, sighing meaningfully, "I've wronged you."

He said that, Qi An'an was more sure of his guess, and sat beside Qi Yan and looked at his face: "Brother, what happened to you? You look so bad. I'm not wronged, don't be a boss all day long. Do you think I'm a little pitiful?"

She is really not wronged, she is about to see the female goose!

Qi Yan sighed lowly. He was not their father with a lot of brains. He wanted to put his illegitimate daughter here to live with An An. He refused too much and made the man into a rebellious mentality. He had to do this. He used the company's affairs to put pressure on him, and insisted that the two sisters cultivate their relationship together.

Now he can't advance or retreat, but Qi An'an is wronged, and he feels very unwilling.

Qi Yan didn't want Qi An'an to know about this, so he was afraid that she would be sad, so he changed the subject: "The high school entrance examination is coming soon, are you nervous?"

Qi Anan didn't answer him: "Brother, just tell me anything, I'm not a child. Tell me the truth, is it about me?"

"Why aren't you a child?" Qi Yan couldn't help laughing, unable to look around, and said in a deep voice, "An An, the children from my father's relatives will come here in two days, maybe... they will stay here for two days. , but it won't be too long, wait until she sees the house and leave. You don't need to pay attention to her when she comes, just do your own thing. "

Alas, as expected, it was the brother who saved the Milky Way in the last life, and thought of her everywhere, Qi Anan couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "Brother, tell me the truth, does she want to live forever? It's not a relative's house. It's my father's child."

After all, her wonderful parents didn't want to hide and tuck at all. One has a lover and a puppy. It's normal for their magical father to have a child outside.

Before Qi Yan could answer, Qi Anan said, "You are unhappy because of this, right? Did your father scold you? Actually, it's alright, just let her live with me. The house is so big, and it happens that I also have a companion. I agree with this matter, so don't do it against your father."

Qi Yan looked at Qi An'an in shock, but the shock quickly turned into sadness. It was hard for him to imagine that the words just now would come out of the mouth of his beloved sister.

He has suffered from the hardships of his native family, and he originally wanted to raise his little sister to be innocent and innocent. He didn't have to think or understand anything, just grow up safely under his wings. But he didn't expect that his sister didn't know when she had become so transparent.

This is how much hardship it took to be so sensible, Qi Yan couldn't help feeling distressed: "An An, brother will not let you be wronged, you can be as willful as you want, you don't need to be so sensible."

Qi Anan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, hugged Qi Yan's arm and acted like a spoiled child: "Brother, I'm really not wronged, why don't you believe me? You work hard and don't worry about me."

She really wasn't wronged at all, but she was a little afraid that Qi Yan would worry too much and feel aggrieved.

Seeing what Qi Yan had to say, Qi Anan quickly added: "And when has your sister ever been bullied? Don't worry, if she really bullies me, I will never forgive her. I will do it myself without you. kicked her out."

In order to reassure Qi Yan, Qi An'an raised his hand and swore, but the villain in his heart was rubbing his hands secretly. The female goose was kind and simple, and she was the number one little angel in the world. This kind of thing would definitely not happen.

Hearing Qi An'an say this, Qi Yan pinched her face helplessly: "...Okay, let's try it first, and if you have anything, you must tell my brother. When your high school entrance examination is over, she should move here. ."

Move in after the high school entrance examination!

At this moment, Qi Anan heard the sound of fireworks in her heart: There is still one week before the senior high school entrance examination, which means that after the senior high school entrance examination, her ashes-level CP fan will celebrate the New Year!

Until she went to bed at night, Qi An's heart was still full of excitement. When she was about to fall asleep half-dreaming, she suddenly remembered that she had been thinking about half of today's work, but it still didn't come to fruition.

Hey, don't worry about the New Year, her cub's birthday gift hasn't been decided yet!

...

Jiang Lu's birthday is Children's Day, but unfortunately, he has never had a birthday, nor a Children's Day.

But this year's Children's Day is definitely different. In the morning, Qi Anan took the mobile phone and thought happily while looking at the "June 1st" above.
