I'm waiting for you in my memory

Chapter 28 The Answer That Can't Be Said (1)
There has been a subtle change in the relationship between Situ Jue and Yao Qiyun. This change is like a spring seed, buried in the ground for a whole winter, and it begins to germinate when there is a good rain.You can't see the trace of its growth with the naked eye, and you will only be surprised when you inadvertently: ah, when did it grow like this?

Even Xue Shaoping noticed that Situ Jue was no longer so repulsive to Yao Qiyun who she placed next to her. Sometimes she got up early and would take the initiative to wait for Yao Qiyun to set off together. When doing homework, she would even run to his room to follow him. He does it together.

Xue Shaoping was not at ease for a while, and went downstairs several times with excuses, deliberately passing by Qiyun's room to check the situation.The door was wide open, and the two children did occupy one side of the desk to review their homework, and they didn't talk much, only discussing a few words occasionally.Sometimes when Situ Jue's temper came up, he would argue a few words, but Qi Yun would not blindly accommodate her, the two often confronted each other, but the next day they stopped holding grudges.

That girl Situ Jue has also calmed down, unlike in the past, when she was locked up at home, she scratched her heart with all kinds of claws. Apart from getting closer to Wu Jiang as usual, she has less thoughts of going crazy.Her grades were good before, and her rankings in the recent mock exams have been higher.Yao Qiyun's grades have also caught up. From the bottom of the ranking when he first transferred to another school, he has gradually jumped to the top [-] in his grade. He will not be like Situ Jue. When he performs well, he can win the first place. Chances are, his grades have been pretty consistent.

At the parents' meeting, the compliments and envy of other students' parents made the face-saving Situ Jiu'an very proud. He was even more happy when he heard subordinates or clients mentioning that he was good at raising children in the workplace.Xue Shaoping, who was most worried about Situ Jue's academic performance, was also very relieved by this situation.

During the winter vacation of the third year of high school, Situ Jiu'an specially arranged for Yao Qiyun to go back to his hometown in the countryside to celebrate the New Year and visit relatives.Yao Qiyun walked for seven days, Situ Jue passed like a chicken without a head, and felt dull throughout the Spring Festival.She asked her father Situ Jiu'an more than once, isn't Yao Qiyun an orphan with no relatives and no reason, why did he go back to that place?
After listening to Situ Jiu'an's explanation, Situ Jue realized that Yao Qiyun and his aunt were in the same village in his hometown.However, his family background is not good, and he has no time to take care of this nephew.Even so, Situ Jue was still worried, and always suspected that some nerve in him was wrong, so he refused to come back.

Yao Qiyun called back from his hometown to say hello, saying that it was rare to go back, his aunt and other relatives hoped that he would stay for a few more days.Situ Jiu'an agreed without saying a word, saying that family love is precious, as long as he comes back before school starts.Situ Jue, who was listening on the side, couldn't hold back, grabbed the phone and wanted to tell him in person, who knew how hard it was to snatch the receiver from her father, the damned Yao Qiyun had already hung up the phone, and almost drove her to death .

Situ Jue suspected that Yao Qiyun was still angry at the small bickering between the two before leaving, and felt that there was no family warmth, so he purposely stayed at his aunt's house for a while, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became.When her parents asked, she didn't know what to say, so she sulked for the first time.Situ Jiu'an also complained that adolescent girls are just as incomprehensible as menopausal women.

Situ Jue is used to Yao Qiyun's presence, his gloomy temper, his annoying and poisonous tongue, his silent company, and his meticulous care are all taken for granted, so once he is temporarily absent, she feels empty.She knew that this was not good, very bad, so she took the initiative to find a reason for herself. The reason why she missed him "a little bit" was just because no one collected her clothes or washed the dishes for her.

Unexpectedly, Yao Qiyun said that he would postpone his return, but just after seven days, he returned home on time with big bags and small bags, and brought back a lot of local products from his hometown.In addition, there are tobacco grown by a relative who specially wants Situ Jiuan to try new ones, and a herbal medicine that is said to be able to treat menopausal migraine as a gift to Xue Shaoping.Situ Jue watched through the autumn water from the side, only to realize that he was the only one who didn't give him a gift. In addition to being greatly disappointed, his joy was also in vain.She thought he was embarrassed, so she hid it, and opened her hand to him, "Where's my gift? Don't be partial."

Yao Qiyun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, but didn't speak.Situ Jiu'an glared at his daughter, "What kind of gift do you want, kid?" Seeing Situ Jue pouted, he put those mushrooms and vegetables in front of her, "So many good things, all of them are yours. of."

How does Situ Jiu'an understand a young girl's mind? Situ Jue has everything, all she wants is Yao Qiyun's attitude, but I don't know if he has intentions or intentions, everyone has it, but she just doesn't have it.Speaking of which, although Yao Qiyun's father and mother are his elders in this family, the person who has the most contact with him and has the closest relationship with him is Situ Jue.Wasn't it so in his heart?It was in vain that she was so happy for his return just now.

Situ Jue, who was severely psychologically unbalanced, became even more angry when he saw the pile of wild goods pushed by his father. He picked up those things and stuffed them back into Yao Qiyun's arms, "I don't care for your broken things."

"Why are you so rude, kid?" Situ Jiu'an shook his head and reproached.

Situ Jue knew that what he had done was wrong, but the tears of grievance clamored to burst out of his eyes. This grievance aroused the memory of Yao Qiyun's anger before returning to his hometown.Situ Jue beat him in an informal game of the Go interest group.At that time Yao Qiyun put away the chess pieces with a wry smile, and said, "Ah Jue, do you have to prove that you are better than me?"

In fact, Situ Jue didn't like Go at all. The reason why she joined the boring Go interest group and learned from scratch was just to understand why Yao Qiyun was so fascinated by the chessboard.All her interest in Go is just because she wants to understand his interest.Just like when she found out that he was attending the Olympiad training class, she also signed up; just like when he attended the oral English cram school, she also joined.Situ Jue was enthusiastically and subconsciously doing what Yao Qiyun liked to do, and she had a strong nature, she would do nothing if she didn't do it, once she made up her mind, she would dedicate herself to doing her best.

Yao Qiyun was smart enough and worked hard enough, which is why he was able to transfer from a township middle school with extremely backward educational level to a key high school in the province, and within just over two years, he ranked among the top 500 out of [-] students in the same grade. He did not disappoint Situ Jiuan's expectations of him.His advantage is stability, and his disadvantage is also stability.He will use the safest and most standardized way to solve a math problem, but he will not use a unique method like Situ Jue to obtain the same answer as him, even if he knows that way, But he will not try, nor will he challenge easily; in the same way, his chess style is steady at every step, and he cares too much about the defense of a city and a pool, so he is almost defeated by Situ Jue's bold and desperate Saburo's play without leaving any retreat.He is better than others in everything, but he happens to meet Situ Jue, who is as smart and hardworking as him, but has an unstoppable momentum.

However, Situ Jue didn't really care about winning or losing, even though she beat him in the Go game, ranked slightly higher than him in the Mathematical Olympiad, and was more ideal than him in the oral English test.This is not because she is better than him in everything and overwhelms her in everything, but because she feels that since it is a competition, she should go all out and compete fairly.Deliberately making concessions and releasing water has no meaning at all, and it is an insult to yourself and your opponent.If Yao Qiyun wins her with his ability, she will also be convinced.

But in Yao Qiyun's view, all this was Situ Jue's provocation to him again and again. He just wanted to be himself quietly, but Situ Jue forcefully made him feel helpless and frustrated.The closer Situ Jue got to him, the less he found himself understanding him.She was laid flat in front of him like a piece of white rice paper, but he hid himself behind the shadow of thick ink.

Situ Jue closed the door in her room, smashing hard on the teddy bear that she imagined to be Yao Qiyun, but no matter how she cleaned it up, it still looked silent and dead.Until she was also tired and collapsed on the bed, thinking about things she couldn't figure out, and at the same time reflecting on herself.Is she wrong?Can't she get along with him happily?When playing chess, she intentionally loses, as long as she makes one move, but does she still know Situ Jue like this?

After a long time, the knock on the door disturbed her messy mind.It was a knock on the door that belonged only to him.

Situ Jue walked to the door with bare feet, but he was angry and refused to agree. After a while, he heard him whisper outside the door: "A Jue, you open the door first."

"No, cheapskate! I'll go to grandma's house for a weekend and bring you something. You go all the way back to your hometown, but I don't have any gifts."

"Open the door and talk."

"No, let's talk about the gift."

Situ Jue was still looking forward to a surprise, maybe he was just teasing her on purpose before.

Who knew that Yao Qiyun was silent for a while, and what she said disappointed her even more.

"Sorry, I don't know what to give you."

"Giving a gift is just a wish. You just said that if you didn't mean it. Then how do you know what to give my parents?"

Situ Jue actually wanted to tell Yao Qiyun that as long as you said it was specially given to me, even if it was dried vegetables or shiitake mushrooms, I would happily accept it as well.
