I'm a world apart from you

Chapter 5 The softest you (2)
The warm sun that had been looming in the clouds in the morning finally came out when the thick clouds parted, and the dazzling golden light fell, and the edges of the clouds were dyed red gold, as if embedded with a layer of gold, surging, scroll.

The metal decoration around the floor-to-ceiling windows reflected a dazzling light, and the tarmac in front of it seemed to be suddenly stripped from the gloom of cold winter, as vivid as a watercolor painting.

Basked in by the sun, the entire field of vision is widened.

No matter how much you experience separation, you will never get used to it.

Wen Shaoyuan looked down at Wen Ge, raised his hand and rubbed her head, sighed lightly, then dropped his hand, and patted her shoulder lightly: "Okay, we're going home."

the fifth day of the new year.

The whole city A was still immersed in the festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year, and Wen Ge's first make-up class in his life began.

The Wen family's villa was a little far away, so Wen Shaoyuan took Wen Ge to his hotel and opened a room for the teacher to teach Wen Ge there.

There are only ten days before the start of school, and it is almost impossible to master all the knowledge points in the first half of the first semester of junior high school in such a short period of time, so these ten days are mainly to let Wen Ge know which classes he has taken and which knowledge points he needs to be familiar with. remember.

Such a fast lecture is still difficult for someone like Wen Ge whose academic performance is not high or low.

She is not a quiet girl who can suppress her personality. She loves to play and make trouble. She likes to wander off in class and chat with her deskmate. She even makes trouble for the teacher. ten percent.It's not that she's not smart, it's just that she doesn't have the idea to study hard yet. Every time she takes an exam, she hugs her feet temporarily, and if she gets a score that is neither ahead nor behind, she will pass the test.

In the past, when she was with grandma, she could still let her own temper go.Grandma loves her, maybe she wants to make up for her lack of motherly and fatherly love, and she is almost doting on her.

But it's different now, so when Wen Ge was confused and foggy, he finally felt a little bit of regret for his heartless self before.

After a few days, Wen Ge was a little depressed.

On this day, Wen Shaoyuan was free to inspect her study.

It was lunch break time, and the tutor was sitting on the sofa and reading a book.

Because the tutoring time is the whole day, the tutoring teacher's lunch is delivered by the hotel customer service, and they eat in the room with Wen Ge.

Wen Shaoyuan closed the door and approached.

Wen Ge was holding a pen, with the tip of the pen resting on his chin, moving his head bit by bit, chanting something in his mouth, so focused that he didn't even notice he came in.

He glanced at the book on her elbow, looked up and saw that the tutor was already sitting upright, smiled, walked over, sat down on the other side of the sofa, and asked, "How is she?" His voice was very low Low, obviously not wanting to disturb her.

Hearing this familiar voice, Wen Ge was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that he had arrived at some time, and was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Uncle."

Wen Shaoyuan hummed, tapped her head with his fingers, and said in a flat tone, "Read your book." After finishing speaking, he turned to look at the teacher.

"Her foundation is a bit weak, and she has partial subjects. She can't keep up with science subjects." The teacher smiled. "The advantage is English. She is very talented in languages. Like most girls, liberal arts problems are not bad. big."

Wen Shaoyuan thought for a moment, but didn't speak.

"If you want to keep up, you need to work hard. It won't help if I take her to understand it."

"I know." Wen Shaoyuan said in a deep voice, "I just wanted to find out her basics, and let her understand the content of the first semester of junior high school by the way." After a pause, he seemed to smile, and looked at Wen Ge. I knew whether I was asking her or the teacher, and said, "It doesn't matter if the foundation is weak, she has the ability to keep up, right?"

Wen Ge couldn't help but look up at him secretly.

He sat sideways, lazily and casually, with one hand resting lightly on the arm of the sofa.Because he was talking to the teacher, his eyes fell on the other party, and he looked at each other very politely.There was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, which was indescribably clear and lofty.

The teacher seemed to have never met such a parent before. He laughed dumbfounded, and then nodded: "I'll bring a test paper tomorrow to see her level. Wen Ge is very independent in learning, so don't worry too much about her learning attitude."

"I know." Wen Shaoyuan seemed to think of something and smiled.

His eyes fell on Wen Ge, just in time to catch her deserting, tilted his head slightly, and stared at her.

Wen Ge immediately pretended that nothing happened, and buried herself in the book.

Wen Ge personally handed the test paper to Wen Shaoyuan when he returned to Wen's home with Wen Shaoyuan after the cram school the next day.To be honest, the math test paper is really horrible.

When Old Man Wen passed by, he sneaked a few glances, and was happy all night, and this was the first time Wen Ge saw Old Man Wen look as childish as a child.

She felt a little strange: "Grandpa, are you making fun of me?"

Mr. Wen held a teacup, kindly and kindly: "Grandpa's education level is not high, but in our time there were few people who studied, and few people who cherish learning opportunities. I dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school. I used to be a I’m a teacher for a while, but teaching with my temperament is just misleading my disciples, and later I thought about it, so I went into business.”

Seeing that she was listening seriously, old man Wen babbled on about some past events, and when Wen Shaoyuan interrupted, the topic had already drifted too far.

"School will start in a few days." Wen Shaoyuan took a sip of tea, his lips were scalded bright red by the tea, but he didn't care, put down the teacup, frowned slightly and thought for a while, before saying, "It doesn't matter, take your time."

He didn't say a word and looked expressionless just now, which made Wen Ge think that he was very dissatisfied with his grades.

In fact, after reading the math test paper, she was ashamed to show it to others.

She was not good at math since she was a child. When she was naughty, she even got 45 points in the test, and that was the only time her grandma hit her with a broom with a straight face. After a few hits, she cried like she had been wronged by the world. In the end it was all over.

Wen Ge knew that passing the exam was the bottom line for grandma, and she never failed the exam again.

This time, I just passed the passing line.

She thought that Wen Shaoyuan would say something like "Why are you so bad", but she never expected that it would be "It doesn't matter, take your time".

Before he recovered, he heard him add another sentence: "When you start school, I will make up lessons for you on weekends."

Wen Ge let out a cry, in disbelief.

Wen Shaoyuan raised his eyebrows subtly, and asked her: "Why, do you think I'm not good enough?"

Wen Ge: "..."

The early spring in City A seems to be a bit colder than the cold winter. Once you leave the heated room, you will be shivering from the cold.

Wen Ge suffers from rhinitis, and when encountering such extremely cold weather, her nose hurts slightly, which is a tolerable but uncomfortable pain.

Aunt Xin said that the spring in City A may have to wait another half a month before it becomes green, and people have to adapt to this embarrassing period of slowly warming up.Especially in March, the heating will be cut off, and the cold spring at that time is really unbearable.

Soon, it was the day when middle school A began to register.Since the transfer procedures had already been completed, Wen Ge went to school to report on the first day very smoothly.After paying the tuition fee, the school issued books again, and before noon, school was dismissed early.

After school officially started, Wen Ge discovered a problem: Middle A was a bit far from Wen’s house, and even riding a bicycle would take more than 20 minutes. Fortunately, lunch was settled at the school, so there was no rush to and fro.But until now, Mr. Wen has asked his driver to pick her up.At first she didn't think there was anything wrong, but after a few days in a row, she couldn't help thinking, is it necessary to pick up and drop off like this in the future?To be honest, she couldn't enjoy such preferential treatment with peace of mind.

After having this idea, Wen Ge didn't mention it to Aunt Xin, and when he went to Wen Shaoyuan's hotel on Saturday to finish her homework, she said in a negotiating tone: "Uncle, can I buy a bicycle? "

Wen Shaoyuan paused his typing fingers on the keyboard, glanced sideways at her, and asked casually, "Didn't you say you can't ride?"

Along with the sound of the voice, there are clear and crisp keyboard sounds, patchwork.

Wen Ge was silent for a while, and explained: "A Middle School is too far away from home, and going to school is not a matter of a day or two, I don't want to trouble Uncle Zhang to pick me up every day." The voice was low, as if she was suffering I feel wronged.

From the corner of Wen Shaoyuan's eyes, he saw that she was looking down at his fingers with her head down, and couldn't help but bend her lips.

After thinking about it, Wen Shaoyuan said, "You don't have to worry about this."

The phrase "you don't have to worry about it" made Wen Ge feel confused. She didn't know if it was to let her not worry about Mr. Wen arranging for Uncle Zhang to pick her up and drop off from school every day, or not to worry about the bicycle.Seeing that he was very busy, Wen Ge didn't dare to bother him with this matter.

Wen Ge took out the English book, but she didn't know why, looking at the straight and cold letters on the book, she couldn't calm down, and she stuttered at the words she was already proficient in, so she simply stopped.

It suddenly occurred to him that he was leaning on the position where she was sitting just now, lazily holding a pen to draw on her book, and then effortlessly solved the problem that she felt would give her a headache after reading it for a long time. There are many…well, ways of “adapting” to her comprehension.

The next day is Sunday, and it is rare for Wen Shaoyuan to have a complete day of rest without being disturbed.

Wen Ge finished memorizing vocabulary and texts in the morning, and made another set of math test questions for the first semester of junior high school. He was about to show it to Wen Shaoyuan.

Wen Shaoyuan got up late, and when Aunt Xin said that Wen Ge went back to his room to study early in the morning, he wanted to take a look.

The door was not closed, it was open at a 45-degree angle, and the situation inside could be clearly seen at a glance.The curtains were tied up with ribbons and hung on the walls on both sides of the window. Outside the window was the rare bright sunlight, which shone in, making the whole room bright and warm.

Wen Shaoyuan pushed the door open and entered.

Hearing the movement, Wen Ge held the book and turned around to read it.

"What are you doing?" He approached, pulled the chair beside the desk and sat down.

Wen Ge pointed to the language books that had just been wrapped, raised his eyebrows slightly, but said in a frustrated tone: "I'm wrapping the book covers, but I'm clumsy."

Clumsy?Wen Shaoyuan glanced at the somewhat wrinkled cover of the Chinese document and was dumbfounded.

Immediately, he naturally took the math book that was being "tortured" by her from her hand, and pressed out just the right creases evenly. When his eyes passed by, he visually measured the basic length and cut it a few times at random. The length was just right. .On the spine and back cover of the book, a trace was carefully folded first, and then it was easily folded in half along the trace. Pressing it lightly with fingers, he raised his chin slightly, signaling Wen Ge to bring the tape over.

That's it.

Wen Shaoyuan finally said lightly and impolitely: "Hands are pretty stupid."

Wen Ge followed his gaze, the textbooks in her bag and the ones in my uncle's bag were put together neatly, the pros and cons should not be too obvious.

Wen Ge immediately covered his face, only showing a pair of dark eyes looking at him, his voice was vague and guilty: "Wen Ge is still young, is my uncle as shy as me?"

Wen Shaoyuan didn't seem to expect her to ask this question, he was slightly taken aback, a smile spread out in those deep and gloomy eyes: "Isn't it better to be more lively like this? Is it better to recruit people when you are careless, careless, and unreasonable?" I like it." After he finished speaking, he stood up and tapped the tip of her nose with his finger, not intending to continue on this topic at all, and said in a soft and slow voice: "Come with me."

Wen Ge sat on the chair, still unable to recover.

No scruples, no prudence, no division?It turned out that he had always seen clearly.

She carefully and desperately suppressed her original personality, trying her best to be well-behaved and sensible, to prove that she is a child who can be completely independent and doesn't need to spend too much thought or worry.

After her parents left, her grandmother also passed away. After the funeral, she lived alone at her grandmother's house for several days. It was obviously a familiar place where she had lived for more than ten years, but she was very scared every night.The night was so quiet, she couldn't help but think back to the unbelievable and heart-wrenching feeling when she heard the news of her parents' death, as if someone had cut a big hole in the softest part of her heart with a chisel, and the blood Flow like a note.

Wen Ge knew that her parents had special occupations, and she also imagined that if one day her dear parents suddenly left... She always felt that day was far away, and she hadn't grown up yet, how could they leave?But without warning, she was taken home by her grandmother with an extremely ugly face. When she learned the news, she hadn't realized it, and tears had already flowed down her face.

During those dark days, apart from grief, Wen Ge didn't have much left in his memory.She knew that she could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything, and even her expression was so numb that she didn't know how to react.

Later, my grandmother was seriously ill, and she was unwilling to leave when she was about to die. She closed her eyes and said repeatedly, "I don't want to leave, my Wen Ge is still so young, how can I live alone..."

In the past, it was difficult to understand such intense words as "crash" and "crazy", but at that time, Wen Ge was only one step away from them.

Without a family, she is like duckweed on the surface of the river, rising and falling with the waves.She didn't dare to imagine her future, she was afraid that she would be overwhelmed, she was afraid that she would learn bad one day, and she was afraid that she would not be able to bear being alone.

During the most difficult nights, she hid in the quilt and shivered alone. She was so desperate that she didn't dare to cry. She gritted her teeth and endured it.

Every day, she would accept the same pity eyes from different people, and slowly, she also felt that she was very pitiful, and this feeling was very bad, so when she got in touch with her cousin's family, she couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly Realized that the reality was far more cruel than she imagined.

If she hadn't met Wen Shaoyuan, if she hadn't met Wen Jing and Jiang Junyu, she didn't know how bad she would be, and those unbearable pains have not healed yet.

Therefore, she tried her best to show her well-behaved and sensible, even if she was unhappy, she couldn't be seen, all she needed to do was to obey.She was afraid of losing her family again. The feeling of being separated from her family was too unforgettable, and she hated it too much.

Do you understand?That feeling of being rescued from a desperate situation, when you are occupied by darkness and almost all your beliefs are swallowed up, your savior appears like a god, so that you can still feel the warmth and brightness when the sun kisses your eyes in your lifetime.

Wen Ge always felt that meeting Wen Shaoyuan was her new life.

How can there be such a stubborn idea?Maybe it's because he was the first person to stand in front of the window and reach out his hand from the rusty anti-theft window to shake hands with her. The long-lost warmth is like a dying traveler in the desert, dying at the last moment of his life. Every rain.

When Wen Ge collected his emotions and went downstairs, he didn't see Wen Shaoyuan's figure.

Mr. Wen was lying on the sofa chair with the radio in his arms and listening to opera. This was his habit for many years - the older generation always respected and loved the things left by their ancestors.

The babbling and soft voice was setting off a high note, reaching the peak all the way, and then descending gracefully.

Mr. Wen narrowed his eyes when he heard that, and tapped his fingers on his knee happily.

Seeing her coming down, without waiting for her to ask, Mr. Wen pointed to the door: "Shaoyuan has gone out, if you want to find him, go to the front door."

Aunt Xin just pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that Ge was going out, she smiled.After Wen Ge walked out, she sat down beside Mr. Wen, poured ginseng tea for him, and said lightly: "Shaoyuan has a heart for Wen Ge."

Old man Wen half-opened his eyes and glanced at her, oh, and asked with interest: "What did that kid do again?"

"I bought a bicycle for Wen Ge." Aunt Xin paused, pretending to be casual and said, "Two days ago, Wen Ge asked me insincerely if it would be inconvenient for you."

Mr. Wen smiled, but said nothing.

It wasn't until the end of Huadan's role in the opera that he lazily asked Aunt Xin: "Do you think I'm too stubborn and unreasonable?"

Aunt Xin was knitting a woolen vest for Wen Ge, when she heard the words, she paused for a moment, thought for a while, and replied, "I understand you."

This is the default in disguise.
