I'm a world apart from you

Chapter 33
Unexpectedly, these "rewards" that she had worked so hard to get in the past were actually reaped under such circumstances, but what does it matter? She gave her heart, so how could she be afraid of Wen Ge's unreserved ?

Wen Ge originally wanted to wait until midnight to send Wen Shaoyuan and the others New Year's greeting text messages, but when she woke up, it was almost noon, and she could only scratch her hair in frustration and annoyance.

She picked up the phone by the bed.

In order to be able to see Wen Shaoyuan's blessing text message at a glance, she deleted all the text messages in the text message box. This number belongs to Xu Liqing again. She only told Wen Shaoyuan a few days ago, but now the text message box is empty, how can she look forward to it? "Happy New Year".

This big liar said that he would remember to say "Happy New Year" to her when he saw her board the plane at the airport. What happened?Forget it?Talking counts, right?Credit overdrawn?

After breakfast, Wen Ge sat cross-legged on the bed and filled up the New Year's greeting messages one by one, for the old man, for the uncle, for Aunt Xin, for Uncle Jingfan, for Xiaobai, for An Ran, and for Aunt Shi Qian's, and... Wen Shaoyuan.

After editing the last one for a long time, after deleting, deleting and modifying it a few times, I got angry and just sent the word "huh".After posting it, I felt anxious for a while, thinking for a long time whether he would quickly admit his mistake to her, or just explain that he forgot?Or add "Happy New Year"?But after waiting for a long time, let alone "Happy New Year", I didn't even send a punctuation mark.

Wen Ge angrily rolled back and forth on the bed several times, until his long hair was messily scattered behind him, then suddenly sat up, and sent another one: Uncle, did you forget something?

As a result, naturally there was no response.

The tenth day of the Lunar New Year.

Wen Ge was still sleeping under the covers. After hearing the sound of the door opening, Xu Liqing's voice sounded, with a slight smile, and a very polite tone.

She recently gave up treatment, and would sleep late every day until noon before getting up to eat, so it's not surprising to hear Xu Liqing's voice when she opened her eyes. What's strange is that it's not only Xu Liqing, there is another person, and it can't be uncle. He just left yesterday , but it's none of her business anyway.

Thinking of this, she glanced at the time, saw that it was still early, and went back to sleep with peace of mind. She didn't hear the male voice that sounded later, it was so deep and sweet, and very familiar.

When Xu Liqing closed the door and came out, the expression on her face was still a little awkward: "Wen Ge hasn't woken up yet, she has been sleeping until noon recently before getting up to eat."

Wen Shaoyuan took a sip of tea and didn't care: "Let her sleep, I'm not in a hurry. Teacher, if you have something to do, go and do it first. I'll wait here."

Xu Liqing smiled a little embarrassedly: "Then I'll go out first and come back at noon."

Wen Shaoyuan stood up and sent her out, then sat down again, took a sip of the bland tea from his teacup, and said softly: "It's only been a few days, and it's just so unruly."

Wen Ge was asleep, his eyelids trembled, he turned over unsteadily, and continued to sleep soundly.

This cage sleep lasted until after ten o'clock, and Wen Ge woke up leisurely. She sat up hugging the quilt, narrowed her eyes slightly and looked out of the window. In front of the window, the mother-in-law is swaying.

The winter in N City is very warm, and it rarely snows. There are only a handful of cloudy and rainy days, and there is no sign of rain after the new year. Wen Ge gave up his expectation of seeing a heavy snow during the winter vacation—don’t Said it was snowing heavily, but she didn't even see the shadow of snow.

After sitting on the bed for a while, she regained her composure, and then she slowly got out of bed, stepped on her slippers and went to the bathroom outside to wash up.

This is not the house that Xu Liqing bought when she settled down in N City, but the dormitory assigned by her unit. The area is not very large. Wen Ge's room can only accommodate all the furniture. Go outside to solve personal problems.

She pinched her neck, which was a little sore from the stiff neck, and opened the door.

Just a few steps away, she stopped suddenly, her eyes widened in disbelief.

On the couch by the window, Wen Shaoyuan's eyes were slightly closed, as if he had fallen asleep, with a handsome and elegant profile.The sunlight cast from the window was quietly falling on his face, and the delicate facial features were softened for no reason, warm and soft.His left elbow was slightly bent, and he supported his chin on the armrest of the sofa. His slender legs were crossed, and his posture was lazy and casual.

At this glance, Wen Ge felt that the sunlight staying on his body was not real, and for a moment she thought that she hadn't woken up, so she raised her hand and grabbed her face fiercely, without being gentle with herself, grinning her teeth in pain , instead he laughed cheerfully, raised his voice and called out cheerfully: "Uncle!"

Wen Shaoyuan was not asleep.The boat was exhausted, and he waited for the drowsiness to rise, so he couldn't help but close his eyes and take a nap, his consciousness was still floating slightly, ready to wake up at all times.Hearing her voice suddenly, he opened his eyes, which were blank for a moment and then clear as before.

He raised his eyes and looked at Wen Ge who was wearing only a set of pajamas a few steps away, and his clothes were a little disheveled but he didn't know it. Before he had time to remind him, Wen Ge ran to him in three steps, two steps and one breath. Without any hesitation, she threw herself on him and hugged his neck tightly.

He frowned slightly, just woke up, his voice was a little hoarse, and he called her name in a low voice: "Wen Ge."

Wen Ge wasn't conscious at all, looked up at him with unconcealable joy in his eyes: "Uncle, why are you here?"

Wen Shaoyuan subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold her and stopped in mid-air. Hearing this, he fell down and wrapped his arms around her waist. Just as he was about to pull her away, his eyes slipped, and suddenly he saw her pajamas slipping off her left shoulder. , revealing the large expanse of fair and delicate skin on his shoulders, he couldn't help but froze again, suddenly at a loss.

The embarrassment and avoidance in his eyes flashed by, and the next moment, he put one hand on her waist to support her body, and the other hand lifted her slipped collar to help her put it on. But calmly, he held her shoulder and pushed him slightly away.

"Come to pick you up..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wen Ge retracted the hand hooked on his neck and put it on his chest instead, without realizing that there was anything wrong with the almost overlapping posture of the two of them at this moment, just like that He smiled like a crescent moon with his eyes bent, and his laughter was crisp and clear: "Uncle..."

Wen Shaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief at the softness of the sudden departure, but there was a suffocating constriction in his throat, and his breathing was a little difficult for a moment, the hand that was originally on her waist left steadily and held her arm.

The instant tightening caused Wen Ge's smile to shrink, and he looked at him quietly.

Warm sunlight came in from the window, reflecting on her face, and those eyes that were originally bright became more and more bright at this moment, as if there was a stream of light floating, clear to the bottom.

Wen Shaoyuan gave a low laugh helplessly, put on a straight face, and seriously reprimanded: "Go back to the room first and change your clothes."

Only then did Wen Ge realize that she... blushed suddenly, got up from him in a hurry, pressed her chest tightly, turned around and ran away.

Looking at the back of her running away in a hurry, Wen Shaoyuan let out a heavy breath, untied the top buttons of the neckline a little upset to breathe, although it was the coldest time in early spring, but he was sweating all over.

When Xu Liqing came back, Wen Ge was silently cooking in the kitchen.

Wen Shaoyuan just brought out a bowl of freshly cooked Coca-Cola Chicken Wings. Seeing her return, he smiled slightly: "Ms. Xu is back."

Xu Liqing smiled, and took the bowl from his hand: "Don't do it, wash your hands, go to the living room and wait."

Wen Shaoyuan didn't insist, he turned around and went back to the kitchen to wash his hands.

It wasn't until all the meals were served that Xu Liqing realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them. She glanced back and forth at the two of them carefully, thought about it, and finally said nothing.

Except for a group of employees in Shengyuan Hotel who are on vacation, the rest of the indispensable positions are on duty in rotation.After all the employees returned to work on the eighth day of the lunar new year, he took He Xing and the hotel manager on a business trip to N City to investigate the market. They arrived on the morning of the ninth day. After a busy day, they only took time to visit Wen Ge today.

Xu Liqing knew that he wouldn't be able to stay in N City for too long, so after thinking about it, she asked Wen Ge to follow him ahead of time. The original No. 15 ticket was cancelled, and she went directly with his car on New Year's Twelve.

After dinner, Wen Shaoyuan excused that he had business to do, so he left first.When he came, he had already booked a hotel in N city, even though Xu Liqing tried to persuade him to stay, he still went back.Besides, there are only two people in this family, both of whom are women, so it's not suitable for him to live in.

Seeing that he declined, Xu Liqing didn't insist anymore, and let Wen Ge see him off, and went to clean the kitchen by herself.

When Wen Shaoyuan came, He Xing drove him off. He called just now and asked He Xing to pick him up. Now he is still on the road, and it will take a while to arrive. The two of them walked along the path.

The mottled sunlight falls on the cobblestone path, and there are withered flowers and plants on both sides, a large area of ​​bareness, which looks a bit desolate and lonely.

Not long after walking, Wen Shaoyuan stopped her and said, "Go back."

Wen Ge was distracted all the way, before he could put away the daze on his face, he looked up at him stupidly, and replied: "This place is so big, if I don't take you to the door, you will get lost."

During the winter vacation, there were not many people in the school, and this is where the faculty and staff live, and there are no people there. If you can't find the way, there is no one to ask the way.

"I know the way." He raised his hand and brushed her open coat, "Is it cold?"

Wen Ge shook his head, waited for him to let go, and led the way before him: "Let's go, uncle, I'll take you out."

Seeing her insistence, Wen Shaoyuan didn't say anything more, he was one step behind her, and followed unhurriedly.

The scenery on both sides recedes slowly, silently, only occasionally the cool wind blows, and the wind blows.

Wen Shaoyuan looked at Wen Ge who was leading the way, and it took a long time to look away and look elsewhere—seems like he grew taller again?
All the way to the school gate in silence, Wen Ge looked around for a long time but didn't see Wen Shaoyuan's interesting assistant brother, so he waited with him at the bus stop beside him.

Suddenly, she turned and glared at him, pouted and complained unhappily: "Uncle, you still said you wanted to say 'Happy New Year' to me, but I sent you a text message, but you didn't reply to me..."

Wen Shaoyuan glanced sideways at her, she poked the advertising space on the bus platform with one hand, drew carelessly, and continued: "Uncle, you don't mean what you say." There was a bit of grievance in her tone.

Wen Shaoyuan sneered, and smiled with his lips curled up.Seeing her looking over in confusion, he took out a red envelope and tapped her on the head mercilessly.Seeing that she withdrew her hand and covered her head in an instant, but her eyes were rolling around, with a pleasing look, he handed it over: "Then I should have said that I will give you a lucky red envelope for the New Year."

Seeing her shaking her head, he didn't even give her the right to refuse, bent down and stuffed the red envelope into her pocket.Seeing her rushing to get it, he pressed her hand with a little force, and said in a serious tone, "You won't accept what I give you, who else do you want?"

Wen Ge didn't speak, his eyes fell on his bony fingers, and his ears couldn't help but feel a little hot.She earned it, and muttered, "I want it every year from now on."

Wen Shaoyuan stared at her, thought for a while, and agreed: "Okay, as you wish."

as you wish?Wen Ge was startled for a moment, then laughed along with him, and became talkative again: "Uncle, you promised yourself, don't secretly say that I'm greedy."

Wen Shaoyuan smiled, and did not continue what she said, but let go of the hand that was holding her, raised it, and scraped the tip of her nose with his fingers, just like what he did to her when she was young a few years ago.

The smile on his face was soft and warm, like the melting white snow on a snow-capped mountain, the sunlight reflected through the crystal water droplets, reflecting a large piece of brilliance, shining brightly and captivating the soul.

Wen Ge was startled, unable to recover.

He could only hear his soft voice whispering in her ears: "My little girl is seventeen."

Year after year, time seemed to pass by in the blink of an eye. In the world of life, it seemed like a fleeting moment, all of a sudden, but she, from that moment on, had grown into a young girl by his side.

He witnessed her transformation and growth with his own eyes, and at this moment, he felt a little proud.

Year twelve.

As soon as Wen Ge opened his eyes, he saw a layer of white fog condensed on the glass window facing him. The branches of the big tree outside the window could not be seen clearly in this haze, only a shadow of a tree could be seen vaguely, layer upon layer. .

She got out of bed, rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked to the window. As soon as she opened the window, the cold morning air rushed towards her face. Suddenly, she sneezed.

Xu Liqing was about to wake her up when she heard movement in the room, knocked on the door, opened the door and came in, seeing her standing by the window, she frowned: "You haven't put on your clothes yet, why are you standing in front of the window and blowing the air?"

Wen Ge didn't make any excuses, breathing in the fresh morning air, slightly cold, with a few wisps of undetectable fragrance, he just felt refreshed.

Xu Liqing urged her to change clothes, then turned back to check her suitcase by herself.

Xu Liqing came back late last night, Wen Ge had already packed her things and went to bed first, afraid of waking her up, Xu Liqing went back to her room first, and woke up early in the morning, just to explain something to her, and help her by the way Pack your bags.

Wen Ge came back after brushing his teeth and washing his face, and was urged by Xu Liqing to have breakfast again.

As soon as he had a piece of toast in his mouth, the doorbell rang, Wen Ge didn't want to put down the toast, so he just went to open the door with the toast in his mouth.

Wen Shaoyuan stood with his hands down, and waited quietly for a while, when he heard hurried footsteps coming from far to near in the house, he knew it was the frizzy Wen Ge, his eyes softened slightly, and he looked up.

Opening the door, Wen Ge immediately saw the slender Wen Shaoyuan standing at the door.He was wearing a black double-breasted coat today, knee-length and straight shoulder blades, which made his face look as handsome as the snow on the top of a mountain.Inside are suits and trousers of the same color, revealing the collar of a white shirt, and a tie is carefully worn.As soon as it appears, it is the charm of a handsome man.

Wen Ge stared blankly, took a mouthful of toast in his mouth for a long time before swallowing it, and took a step back to let Wen Shaoyuan in, but his eyes were staring straight, and he still didn't control his mouth after holding back for a long time: "Little Uncle, you look so handsome today."

Just as Wen Shaoyuan was about to step into the door, he glanced at her with a smile in his eyes, and his voice was so low that only two people could hear him: "I just found out today?"

Wen Ge touched his nose, chewed his toast, closed the door, and followed him in.

Xu Liqing probably heard Wen Shaoyuan's voice, and came out to welcome him: "I came so early, Wen Ge hasn't had breakfast yet."

Wen Shaoyuan looked back at Wen Ge who was following behind him, smiled, and said softly, "No rush, wait until she finishes eating before leaving."

After Wen Ge finished eating, Xu Liqing waved her hand and called her into the bedroom to talk.

Wen Ge looked back at Wen Shaoyuan who was sitting on the sofa as motionless as a mountain, and followed Xu Liqing back to the room.

Xu Liqing opened the cabinet, took out the wallet prepared two days ago and handed it to her: "There is some pocket money here, you take it, if you want to buy something, take it from inside. Is your uncle close to you? Don’t always ask people for money.”

She has rarely mentioned the difference in status between the uncle and nephew in front of Wen Ge, but this time it didn't make Wen Ge feel awkward.Wen Shaoyuan has no kinship with her. This is the cognition engraved in her heart early in the morning. She used to rely on and trust him. Now that she is older, she realizes that she was a little selfish in the past two years. She knows that he will not ignore him. She hugged him tightly like a driftwood, causing him to bear a lot of pressure.

She pursed her lips, looked seriously at Xu Liqing with a serious expression for a while, thought for a while, and took the wallet over: "I don't need much, I still have a lot of pocket money."

Seeing her take it, Xu Liqing breathed a sigh of relief, and handed her the snack bag prepared in advance: "I bought you snacks to eat on the way. After returning home, you can't relax in your studies, and you must listen to your uncle, you know?"

Wen Ge nodded vigorously, leaned forward, and hugged her: "Thank you, Aunt Xu."
